Speaker 2 (04:11):
The Matt Caulkins resignation, which we talked about yesterday at
the start of the show, so Ift he had him
on yesterday with Fine at six o'clock on his show.
Matt Calkins's resignation from the Seattle Times as their sports
columnist has turned into a nationwide thing. I gave you
my thoughts on it yesterday. We'll reiterate those in a second.
(04:32):
It's also turned into what it just is the most
disappointing thing in our world these days, is we're gonna
take something, make something that it's not into something else,
twisted around, and then yell and scream.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
At each other. That's what's turned into.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
We'll hear from Matt just a few minutes from Matt
from that interview yesterday, coming up at twelve twenty today

of the show, I just want to have some fun.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
Walls will probably here from Jalen Milrod today, So we
got a lot coming up on the radio show. Big
big day coming up today here at Georgetown Brewing. Real
quick on the beer and then I'm gonna get into
a couple of sports topics, but just real quick on
the beer and the reason we're here today. When the
pandemic hit in twenty twenty, we had been the boy
about seven eight years into the golf tournament, the Mayor
(06:48):
of Maple Valley Open. We were raising some money for
some good causes, and that's evolved over the years and
it went from being the we did Ron McDonald house
for a while, then evolved into that, it evolved into
a couple other things, including recently Avery Huffman DIPG Foundation,
and also the Jordan Morris Foundation. It evolved with those
(07:09):
things because I've got a personal tie to all three,
and I really loved the Ron McDonald House. They got
a lot of support Elsewhere. I want to find three grassroots,
smaller foundations that could use our help, and so that's
where the golf tournament money was going to. In fact,
when the pandemic hit, it was gonna be the first
year that we donated to Jeorde Morris Foundation for young
people with Type one diabetes. And as we're doing that
(07:30):
and getting ready to do that, then the pandemic hit,
we couldn't have a golf tournament. And honestly, it was
devastating for me because it's my son had just been
diagnosed with type one diabetes, and Jordan and his foundation
were integral and getting him back on track, getting his
mind right, which is also what Helensky's hope's all about,
getting him back to where he felt. He was a
(07:51):
late guy. Like a lot of times, you know, diabetes
gets diagnosed way younger. It happened for him at a
late stage, up ended everything he was doing, and then boom.
We couldn't do anything with golf tournament the first year.
We're gonna do that because of the pandemic and golf
courses not allowing us to have tournaments. And that's when
the Georgetown folks stepped up. They've always supported the golf
tournament in a huge in a massive way, gift cards
(08:13):
and other things. They support it with Manny Roger, the
two owners, and then everybody here. Matt Connolly's are sales manager,
Dave Forrester's our retail manager, Pete jack Ingrid Crystal, all
the sales staff. These guys are unbelievable. Matt Edwards is
the brewer. And somewhere along the why, Matt and Manny
came up with the idea, let's do a beer and
(08:34):
we'll name it after the golf tournament the mayor. So
they did a beer and it's and back then, if
you guys remember, I hate to bring up the pandemic,
but if you remember the pandemic, you couldn't go out
to eat at every restaurant, just whitewashing, like yeah, if
you want to go out, if you want to go
and have a beer, if you want to have a drink,
you couldn't do that.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Everything was done at home. If you want to get food,
you got it to go.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
And so they made the beer and in growlers only,
and it's sold out in five days. It was unbelievable
and crazy the success. And I kind of thought it
was gonna be a one off.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
It's not. Here we are.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
I don't think they do one offs.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
No.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
If I know anything about Georgetown Brewing.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
They believe in some certain things. And so here we
are in twenty twenty six, and we believe this is
the seventh year of the mayor, the man. They've got
an incredibly talented group, a dozen or so brewers in
the back.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Here, I'm looking through it to all the tanks.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
The guy that's kind of in charge of a lot
of stuff, and the research and develop he's kind of
moved into research and developed now Matt Edwards. And if
for all you beer lovers out there, when you're enjoying,
when you're at t Mobile Park this weekend, you're watching
Kate Anderson, you look around the ballpark just you've seen this.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
All you see are orange cans of Bodie.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
It's my husband's favorite. So some well acquainted.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Matt Edwards is the brewer that came up with the
recipe for Body. That's a whole different story. It's kind
of a mistake that sort.
Speaker 9 (10:00):
I was gonna say, like, Matt, I have a word
to have with you, because it is my husband's favorite.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
It's it's it's the most popular beer right now of
the craft bruises in the state, maybe the northwest. Anyway,
Matt's the guy that came up about He's the one
that developed the Mayor recipe, and it has just it's
taken off and our listeners come down every year and
they buy it, and hopefully a lot of you will
be coming by as the afternoon goes along. I'll be
off at three, have a pint with me and and
let's raise a glass and raise some money. The beer
(10:27):
itself light, body, smooth, citrus flavor, hints of tangerine and orange,
crushable summer beer.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
Is how it's described.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
That was actually described by somebody who works here that
tasted this morning and they're just like wow, like dangerously good.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Like you can try.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
That's a word for it, because it is so. It's
a strong beerstrong drink six.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Point six point nine abb the same as Body, but
it's I and I love body. It just body's got
a little meat in the bones. This one's at This
one's a lot easier to drink, and you could drink
a lot of them. So that's why you get a
growler or three or four. Take them home this weekend
sitting the patio, and remember that every dollar, every cent
goes right to the charities. Every cent goes to the charity.
(11:11):
So we appreciate everybody coming by buying, and it's it's
just been a great day us. I should also mention
Jess that we have T shirts and hats that they're
selling this year.
Speaker 10 (11:21):
Merch.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
We got merch.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
We got merch.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
There's merch here. We got merch here.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
So we got T shirts and hats were selling as well,
which is really cool, and they look great. They're actually
you saw the hats. I think we gave a hat
to everybody at the golf tournament. They're in they're in
cracking colors, so it's it's they're really they They redesigned
the tap handle this year, so they now are in
cracking colors, really cool looking, awesome trucker hats, really cool
(11:48):
T shirts, So come on down support it everyone. We
have a lot of our listeners. If you're listening to me,
listen to my old show with my old co host.
We love beer, and I know a lot of you
do too. And the best thing about beer is when
you can actually drink a great beer and also raise
money for great causes. And we're gonna do that today.
(12:09):
We'll talk more about that as a day goes on.
Kate Anderson up with the Marriags real quick, just a
couple of minutes here. There's two ways to look at it. One,
it's a distraction for what's going on. Hey, look at
this our shiny new toy. More important, more importantly, I
don't think, because we've talked about this, baseball and promotions
(12:31):
work differently. Jerry Depotle's not Jerry Depot doesn't care about
selling tickets. And you don't have to sell tickets to
the Cubs on a Saturday night in August.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
You don't.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
It's on a nationally televised game. It's already gonna be
jam packed. Kate Anderson long overdue coming up here, But wow,
what a hard landing he has, first game Saturday against
a team that hits really well against left hand. I mean,
it's just but it's on national TV. It sets up
for just a really cool, epic event on Saturday. Excited
as hell, can't wait to watch him pitch, can't wait
(13:01):
to just can't wait for the Kate Anderson era to begin.
And the one thing this organization does really well, besides
promotions and bobbleheads and fireworks and all the fun stuff
they do from a baseball standpoint, the one thing they
do really well is fine and develop pitchers. So there's
no reason to think this won't be just an absolute
home run. Can't wait for him to pitch. Coming up
on Saturday, we'll get into that. Maybe as day goes on,
(13:22):
we'll get in the Seahawks. I'm gonna tell you again
once again, I don't even have to tell you why.
I don't have to tell you why I hate joint practices.
It was on display today and stuff happens in football,
and I get it. But there were two other joint
practices this week that were called off early because of injuries.
One also called off because of fights. That's fine, that's
(13:43):
gonna happen. But when you're called out because of injuries,
that's a bumming. All right, let's do this. Let's wrap
up this segment we'll come back.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
I want it.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
I haven't heard from Calkins yet. I mean I have,
I've talked to him, but I haven't heard from him
on the air with Softy and Dick Fane. That's coming
up next on nine three point three KDFM.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Now back to Ian Furness on your Home for the
Huskies Cracking and The Twelfth Man, brought to you by
Seattle's closest Snow call Me Casino and Hotel on Sports
Radio ninety three point three kJ R FM.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
All right, we're back at Georgetown Brewing on a Friday afternoon.
Oh man, what one of my favorite days of the year.
It's the Mayor IPA release. And I just cannot thank
my friends at Georgetown Brewing enough for their support. I
know that I would echo the same sentiments from Lenski's
hope and also from Jordan Morris Foundation and Avery Huffin.
We'll hear from Ben Huffin. Will be here a little
(14:48):
bit later with us hanging out. Can't wait for that.
So that's coming up today. We're selling the Mayor i PA.
Every cent from every pint or growler that you take
home goes to our three charities, Our three foundations and
thank you, thank you so much to the folks here
at Georgetown.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
Let's do this.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
I'm gonna We're gonna have a lot of fun. We've
got a lot of sports to get to today. I
want to put a rap on this because I feel
like it would be very open ended, Jess if I
did the segment I did yesterday to start the show
and we didn't follow it up with.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
Hearing from Matt Halkins.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
Yeah, now former columnist at the Seattle Times. He resigned yesterday.
I will reiterate what I said yesterday in a second,
but I wanted I want to just put this out there, Matt.
We about five minutes with Matt and Softy and Fain.
I haven't heard this, Jess has. Let's take a listen together,
(15:37):
we'll comment on the other side, put a bow on it,
and then and then move on from what has become,
to be honest with you, one of the biggest stories
across the country.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
I mean, I looked at the vie.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
It's he's got almost nine million, nine million, nine million
views on on on the.
Speaker 4 (15:57):
X account or Twitter, whatever it might be.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
So here's Matt Calkins yesterday talking about his resignation from
the Seattle Times with Dave Maller and Dick Fae.
Speaker 11 (16:06):
Take the floor a little bit, talk more about why
you did what you did today.
Speaker 6 (16:10):
Sure.
Speaker 8 (16:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (16:11):
I attended a rally outside of Climate Pledge Arena a
couple of weeks ago in support of Sophie Cunningham, you know,
who took a stance against biological males in girls and
women's sports. And I talked to a couple of girls
you know who were who supported Sophie. One was named
Honorie Wilson, who's holding the sign up saying thank you
(16:31):
Sophie for supporting girls. There was another girl named Francis
Stout who I called on the phone, who has has
refused to play against a biological boy in a basketball
game and was in a locker room with that same
person as well. Honorlely lost to a boy biological male
in eighth grade. And you know their their whole point was,
(16:53):
this is not an anti trans movement, right, This is
a pro girl's, pro women's sports movement if you have
nothing against trans people. And that was really the thesis
of my column. Like you know, if you read between
the lines, you could probably see where I stood on
the issue. But what I was really trying to get
across is, look, just because you support someone like Sophie
or someone like Annolie or someone like Francis, it doesn't
make you transphobic. Let's stop hurtling these labels around. And
(17:17):
you know, when we're talking about this very delicate situation,
because it's a complicated subject and I think it's unfair
to label people. That was really it. And I gave
that to my editor on Friday morning, you know, three
days later. I didn't say it needed to run in
Sunday's column or anything in like that Sunday's paper. I
was like, hey, if you want to take a look
at this, I think it's good. No rush though, because
(17:37):
it's you know, complicated, And he said, well, we'll look
at it, but he can't run for Sunday's paper. It's
not ready yet. We're gonna have my boss take it
to the two main bosses on Wednesday. And at this
point I'm going, Dan, this is like an event right now,
like it's been five days already. And then on Thursday
I got a call saying, we're not going to run
it because you didn't tell us what you were doing beforehand,
which I kind of called bs on. I'm like, that's
(17:59):
that's not the reason. You would have spiked it right away.
So to me, this was another example of them not
wanting to run something that kind of challenged prevailing narratives
in the newsroom, you know, might have gotten the outrage
mob not at them, And to me, I was just
at that point I was ready to quit. You know,
as soon as you said it's not going to run,
(18:19):
I said, okay, I'm out. You know, I don't think
I could be a columnist here. And it wasn't an
emotional decision. It was something I've been thinking about for
a long time, and as I said in my substack,
I'm scared of blankless of what's next. But uh, you know,
I felt like it was something that I had to do.
Speaker 12 (18:34):
So Matt talking about the reasoning that that they gave
you like that that you feel like what the reasoning was,
because I mean I really didn't see like you said.
I mean, you can read between the lines a little bit,
but there wasn't anything blatantly conversational or one sided that
you put out there on that substack, right.
Speaker 7 (18:51):
Yeah, I just think this was you know, there are
certain topics at The Times, And as I said on
my substack, I don't know what I would have done
if I'm in there. Sits right, they're they're, you know,
trying to minimize risk as much as they can. But
I think that the real reasoning is, you know, there's
kind of a I try not to get too political,
but I think, you know, it's a it's a left
leaning paper. I think there are some dogmatic views that
(19:13):
they have. I think that this is something that maybe
went against the grain of how a lot of people
in the newsroom think, even if that's different from how
a lot of the public thinks. And I just if
I had to guess, I don't think that editors wanted
to deal with that. I don't think they wanted to
deal with the potential blowback from some of the louder
voices in the newsroom and maybe maybe some of the
activists out there. So I think they just said it's better,
(19:35):
it's better if we don't run this, you know, and
just kind of kind of hope it goes away. I
can't read their minds, but that's I got.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
Well.
Speaker 11 (19:42):
Matt Hawkins, who stepped down today after eleven years as
one of two columnists at the Times. Really there's only
two of them in the city, right because the Tribune
I don't think has a full time right Dick sports
columnist over there, So it's been Mike Varrell and it's
been Matt Hawkins for a long time.
Speaker 5 (19:57):
I mean, you know, Dick and I.
Speaker 11 (19:58):
Matt grew up in an era with you know, there
were there were four or five of them in the city,
you know, a couple of The Times, a couple of
the p I, couple of the News Tribune, going back
to the John McGrath days. So to be sitting here
with right now to day one in town is amazing
how this industry's a very good one. Hey, let's not
let's not go crazy. He's okay, all right, but no,
(20:19):
I'm kid. Mike's awesome. But that that it just shows
you how much this business has changed. But my my
point is this you obviously got from your editors.
Speaker 5 (20:29):
We're not running this.
Speaker 11 (20:30):
We're afraid of the reaction. To put it in simple terms,
do you think they would have run the column if
you had a different take on the issue, If you
wrote a, hey, I'm all four transgender athletes taking part
in women's sports. If you had written that opinion. Do
you think the article would have been published.
Speaker 7 (20:52):
I can't say for sure, but I would if I
had to bet, I would say yes, Wow, I just yeah,
I just had just think that's I think that's the case.
I think, you know, that's kind of what the narrative
within certain newsrooms are. I think that's kind of the Yeah,
you know, that's kind of the prevailing narrative. And I think,
(21:14):
you know, we've we've kind of seen other columnists hint
at that, you know, in terms of, you know, we
gotta we gotta protect trans people. And I'm all about
protecting trans people, like I never said otherwise in the column,
but I do think that we we tend to favor
maybe the person that is considered to be the more
marginalized community. And I understand that and I empathize with that,
(21:36):
But to me, this is just a matter of fairness.
So uh, that's kind of the stance I took. And
I yeah, if I had the guests, I would say
that The Times would have rand it if I took
a different direction, So you go.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
That's Matt Holkins.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
The entire interview with Softy and Fame is up on
the podcast page on their show page and you can
go take a listen to it there if you like.
I I want to put a bow on it and
then move on because today I want today to be positive,
especially because what we're doing down here today trying to
(22:10):
raise some money for some great causes. I think that
two things. One I've seen this and I just want
to clarify one things I did text mad about this.
People were saying that, well, he should have got approval,
and you know he tried to go behind his editors backs.
Things like that. A couple of things need to be
(22:30):
pointed out. One, as far as that's concerned, Caulk has
told me, we usually tell and this is columnist, and
Danny's gonna genuine you'll join at this one o'clock.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
And he can. He's in that business. He'll tell us.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
We usually tell our editor what we plan is for
what our plan is for the week, but we often
change that up. We never had to tell him what
we were working on in advance. In regards reporting, sometimes
I give them an angle two hours before I turn
it in, and it was just fine. I spent my
career giving editors finished columns on bigger issues and asking
what do you think? So This isn't like, hey, I've
got to get approval or I went behind their back.
This was the normal course of action to write a column.
(23:04):
More importantly, I think this is the thing that we
should point out. This was not the first time. This
is not Matt Calkins did not quit because he wrote
a story saying that he well, as he just said,
he wrote a story with some people saying that they
didn't believe that they should have biological males competing against
(23:24):
girls or in female locker rooms, and reported on that rally.
That was a column. It's not a sub second. Go
read it, so understand that that's kind of what. But
he had a half dozen other columns over the years
that were of content that makes sports and politics that
were also nixed. I had this conversation with him. I
(23:46):
think it was in twenty two. In fact, I know
it was in twenty twenty three. We're in Arizona cover
the Seahawks, and I remember having a conversation with him,
and he had expressed to me his frustration.
Speaker 4 (23:54):
I don't think I'm speaking out of turn here.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
He had expressed his frustration with the Times because they
would not run a couple of things he had written
over the last couple of years that maybe didn't go
with the prevailing whether it's majority or maybe loud, minority
in terms of not minority in terms of how you look,
minority in terms of feelings, voices that sometimes are overwhelming,
(24:18):
and it was frustration on his part. He's a columnist,
He's paid to write an opinion. If you don't like
the opinion, you digress. Newspapers should be giving you opinions
that you have to think about and you have to discuss.
Speaker 4 (24:28):
That's what we do.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
I look at our text line and I'm just amazed
by the absolute ignorance of people at times. And what
I mean by that is, well, for every great text
we have, we have others that are that are you know,
calling him a racist, calling which I'm trying to figure out,
how are you a racist?
Speaker 4 (24:45):
How are you a racist? Help me out? It's fine anyway,
there's like literally three of those on the text line
right now. He's a racist?
Speaker 3 (24:52):
What I don't really get where that comes into it.
Speaker 4 (24:56):
And he just asked, what do you know.
Speaker 9 (24:58):
I know he got a lot of fl for the
column he wrote about Michael Bennett, just wondering, you know why,
after he went after Bill Wicksy in the locker room,
after that Dallas right then. But it wasn't he His
whole column was basically being like why do you keep
doing this?
Speaker 3 (25:16):
It wasn't with Race.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
I think if you went back over his eleven years,
you're gonna find a lot of columns that you agree
with and a lot of columns you disagree with. And
then that tells me that the columnist is doing his job.
That tells me one hundred percent he's doing his job.
And I love that, you know, I see that if
you all want to read this text, if you all
want to have these types of conversations, move to the south.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
What that has? So we live in a world now.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
We live in a world now where if you express
an opinion that someone would disagree with, then here's the thing.
If you disagree with it, you're either woke and nuts
and you know, left blah blah blah almost but woke
is a big word, or you're a racist on the right,
you're one of the other. We paint these broad brushes,
(26:02):
and I just there's times I get frustrated, like right now,
with reading some of these comments. And then there's times
when I say, maybe, like a lot of things. It's
a vocal minority of idiocy that just is prevailing sometimes
on things like a text line, which, by the way,
I'm gonna point this out to you guys. When you
text in, we see a history of everything you've texted
(26:22):
to us, oh yeah and so, and we also oftentimes
see who you are. And at some point I'm just
gonna start calling names out on the air, so maybe
your friends and family know what you say, because I
might just start doing that because that's I want you.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
I want people.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
I want people to know that when I look back
and I see something when you're calling someone a racist
or a bigot, or this or that or whatever else
you want to call it, right, I see, we can
very easily look over and click on the little number
on the left and see your phone number and see
what you have texted from since his day we started
texting the text line.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
And the funny thing.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Is a lot of you guys text in nothing but negativity.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
I'll give you an example.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I hate Ian, I hate Softie, I hate Faine, I
hate Chuck. Mark James is the worst. Mark James is
no longer here. Mark James is now the best. The
Morning Guy that used to be here. I loved him,
actually I used to hate him. Like if all you
want to do is text at four nine, four or
five to one, your absolute negative, angry, moronic feelings.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
Fire away.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
Understand too, though, that we see those, and I also
can look back and see what you have texted in
the past, you lose all credibility, and at some point
when they just get as nasty as they are, sometimes
I swear, yes.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
I'm gonna do this.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
I'm gonna start calling names out on the air, and
I'm gonna and I hope your employer hears you. I
hope your friends hear who you are and your family,
because everything I do is inn open book, everything Softy.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Does or Faine or name right.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
What's being lost in this whole conversation And this is
the frustration that I have even yesterday, but even when
I first saw it, and when I first heard about
this years ago with Matt. The frustration I have is
the absolute thin skin nature of the newspaper of record
in our city. And not so much the people that
work there. It's the people that run it, the opinion people,
(28:17):
the editors, the owner owners now plural.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
Oh, as you said yesterday, the empty suits.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
The empty suits that run the Times, are so thin skinned,
so thin skinned, that they don't come on our radio
station anymore. They pulled all their people off it. Even
though we have relationships way more so than the guys
across the street. We have relationships, friendships, not just relationships,
friendships with them.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
And I'll lay this on the table. I reached out
and tried to bridge. I tried to rebuild that.
Speaker 9 (28:44):
Bridge, and I'll put that out there, and it was
met with nothing, with nothing. The station has changed since
I have been here, It's changed before I even got
here three and a half years ago.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
So I just want to point out that if we
can't have open dialogue, and in today's world we literally can't,
we've lost ourselves a little bit and we've lost a
lot in this country, the fifth of state, so to speak.
The media should allow us to do that. The opinions
of a newspaper should be something that you look at,
(29:16):
listen to, as well as debate and discuss, and we
can't do that anymore. We cannot do that anymore. Instead,
it turns into name calling, it turns into accusations that
are false, and that's pretty frustrating.
Speaker 4 (29:30):
That's pretty frustrating. All right, we're done with that.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
Rest of the day. The rest of the day, and
go ahead. You can listen whole interview. Softening Fan did
a great job. It's up on their podcast page. They
talked to them in the six o'clock hour yesterday. If
you're looking to find it, go find that on the
iHeartRadio app. That's free to download. The way you go.
Speaker 4 (29:43):
All right, the rest of.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
The day, we're talking sports, we're having fun, we're selling beer,
we're drinking beer. We're raising money for three great God
charities as well, all here at Georgetown Brewing. If you
are a friendly folk, come on down and say hi.
If you're mean and angry with the whole world, just
stay home.
Speaker 4 (29:56):
Just do your own things. Stay home, do your thing,
be angry at the shelf, goes and.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
Yellow, buy a beer and go away.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
Go kick your dog or whoever you want to do.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
I think these I think that's what these people do.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Down Sand You can do all those yeah, sand, not
the dog.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
All right, we'll hear a little bit from Jayalen Milroe
when we come back. By the way, the captain just
showed up. Mike Ben was here. Oh yes, we'll hear
from uh, we'll hear from Jalen Milroe.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
Coming up next here, George hay Or I PA release today.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Hello, we got a great crowd here, Thanks everybody showing
up so far.
Speaker 13 (30:51):
We go.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
We'll be here for a while. I'm gonna be here
until probably at least five or so this afternoon, So
come on by, say hello, Hope everyone's well. We'll tell
you more about the beer in a second. Let's get
to some Seahawk conversation. Tough day in Nashville today, now
joint practice. You had Greg Bell from our station and
the News Tribune, but Greg broadcasting live from next to
the field. Unfortunately, not all the news was good. Jake
Bobo looks like he's gonna be out for the year
(31:11):
with a knee injury. According to Mike McDonald. A couple
of the guys on Tory Foster Abel Lucas left practice early,
both heat related.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
That's good news.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
Jalen Milroe is gonna get some time coming up on
Sunday again. He's looked good in camp so far. We
like what we've seen from jaln Milroe. We'll see what
he does again on Sunday. Wasn't the best game for
him or really anybody on Sunday last Saturday against the Cowboys.
But I sat down with jayaln Milroll earlier this week
and one of the things I want to talk to
him about was third round pick Darnald and Locke.
Speaker 4 (31:39):
In front of him.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
He really doesn't have to be the guy right away.
At the same time, he got that competitive nature, So
how do you balance those two things.
Speaker 14 (31:47):
I think there's a misconception when it comes to development,
right Like, if you look at the workforce, you're not
going to get a promotion right away. Once you get
to that workforce, you have to build. You have to
get better, you have to learn the necessary tools. You
got to learn to hyperfecting your craft so that when
your time as comes in that profession, you're able to season.
Now you get a promotion. You know, my dad's is
as a captain that has work force. He had to
(32:08):
start off as a police officer. Then lieutenant didn't have
to have the build. Just like playing quarterback, you know,
you have to go through stages to get to that
get to that point, right Like if you look at
my rookie class of last season, a lot of those
guys played because someone got hurt. It wasn't like they
just took over and it was gave them the job
they had to earn, the position they had. They had
the soone got went down. Then they went in and
played different than my case. We had a really good
(32:30):
starter that played really well, led us to a super Bowl,
and he's deserving all the success he had. And so
as a young guy, why not learn from that? Why
not be able to take notes and inherit all these
things because when it opportunity presents itself, I'm going to
have years of experience that I've learned from Drew Sam, coach,
the play caller, coach, coach Kubiak, that it's gonna be
(32:52):
necessary for when I'm able to play. You know, my
time at Alabama as well. Is I credit my time
being the backup behind Bryce to success I had in
college because during that time frame, you see football in
different lenses. You're not playing, so then now you're trying
to see as the play through the player callers lenses,
the starter what he sees, and so that it changed
your perspective.
Speaker 10 (33:12):
And so it's so many good, it's so many good
to keep on building.
Speaker 4 (33:15):
What's what's Sam? How is Sam for you.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
And he's also if nothing else, everything you just described
is Sam Darnold. Like he became great in the NFL
at what age twenty seven, twenty eight? Right right, right,
like after some stops and as we all know, don't
go to the Jets.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
That's good.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
But like in all seriousness, like right that is does
he kind of is the a guy that you can
talk to and kind of work off of a little
bit and be also looked to to say, hey, that's
that's kind of the model.
Speaker 4 (33:40):
I like.
Speaker 14 (33:40):
Yeah, I think one thing that we both can relate
on is that we both have the same quarterback coach. Right,
So I've seen him in training, I've seen him perfect
this craft and also with this time experience been on
multiple teams, he's seen a lot, He's seen a lot
offic he's seen a lot of ball, and during that
time frame he's had a growth mindset.
Speaker 4 (33:59):
Yeah, if you look at Drew as well, he's.
Speaker 14 (34:00):
Been on multiple teams as well, and he's had a
growth mindset and understood what's necessary to be a starter
in the NFL. And also he had no problem you know,
pouring into me, pouring in the Drew And so I
think that's pretty cool from him, and he's just a
good dude to be around. And I and I enjoy
and that's not everywhere, you know, sometimes you know, the
quarterbacks room hate the starter.
Speaker 10 (34:22):
That's the opposite.
Speaker 4 (34:23):
For us.
Speaker 14 (34:23):
We enjoy being around each other and it's fun. You know,
we don't have a toxic room at all.
Speaker 4 (34:27):
No, well, I think we. If you watch Hard Knocks,
I have not, and I want to binge watch it
at the end of the season. Okay, okay, that's that's
probably a good I can tell you this.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
For Seahawk fans and even people like us we've covered
the team forever, it's kind of it's really fun to
see behind the season like we see out here. We
think we know some things right and we don't. So
it's been a ton of fun. And I mean, I
think what we've seen everybody comes across so in such
a good way. What do you need to get done
this out the next two weeks in the preseason?
Speaker 14 (34:52):
Yeah, I think you personally, yeah, for sure, leading leading
clean operation a team, to lead our offense, build each
and every game. You know, with different defenses, you're gonna
see a lot different things. You know, playing this weekend
is tight and they do some different things with the
solid defense and then last week with the Cowboys. So
just seeing different defenses responding, have a plan at court opposition,
(35:15):
and just go out and ball up.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
You got rep a little bit, right, Yeah, I mean
it's it's tough because everyone's battling.
Speaker 4 (35:22):
You've got some backups. You got this.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
You know they had you with the twos a lot
last week in terms of the offense. Uh, but then
you're in there was some threes, and so there's probably
I would think for a quarterback it might be the
hardest things preseason?
Speaker 4 (35:33):
Is it? Absolutely? Yeah, it's tough. I believe it is that.
Speaker 10 (35:37):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (35:38):
Are you looking forward to joint practices?
Speaker 5 (35:39):
I cannot wait.
Speaker 14 (35:41):
It's fun because it's it's a blessing in this guys,
because you know we're going against the best defense, yeah,
in the in the whole league. But also good to
see different defenses, you know, being around different schemes and
be able to compete like last year going against the
Packers and joint practice, like of course we go against
our defense. Now seeing you Packers defense, that was great.
(36:01):
You know, So it's always fine competitive.
Speaker 4 (36:04):
You know, you don't have to deal with listen, to
Devin Witherspoon talk right.
Speaker 5 (36:08):
And he got juice, great personality.
Speaker 4 (36:12):
What was it like when he came in with that
one hundred million dollars contract in the locker room?
Speaker 14 (36:15):
What I loved about it was a team corderie and they, yeah,
all happy for him. Yeah, I was that. I was
the coolest thing like him, right, yeah, yeah, everybody was
genuinely happy for them because of how great of a
player there are, but also great people.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
Last thing for it, I'm just going to leave this
very open because we saw it. This is it's a
really cool most Since you haven't watch Hard Knocks, there's
a cool moment Hard Knocks and Mike McDonald, John Shunter
talking and I'm talking about Terry and Arnold, your teammate.
They go, we've talked to Jalen. Jalen speaks highly of him.
I will say this. I don't want to give you
a spoiler because you can watch it later. They speak
very highly of you and what your opinion is and
(36:49):
your background, where your family comes from a military family,
dads and plaw enforcement, and they talked say.
Speaker 4 (36:54):
Jalen really says good things about it.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
So it's kind of cool that a second your guy.
They went to you, what can you tell people about
Terry and Arnold.
Speaker 14 (37:02):
Well, this is my best friend that I consider my brother.
This is someone that it means a lot to me
because we started the journey together. We're both in the
same recruiting class at Alabama, so we started the journey
being in backups, grinding our tail off, grinding together, competing
each and every day. Being around his room was like
(37:22):
two rooms away from mine at the dorms, to someone
I spent a lot of time with, and during this
whole time frame we got each other better. And to
see now that we're both in the NFL, seeing you
know where his direction, his life is going. He's very, very,
very talented, of course we all know that, but he's
very smart and intelligent. He's gonna bring a lot of
juice to our defense. He's gonna work hard, of course,
(37:45):
but also understanding that he's there, he's here, the better
the team. You're not gonna detriment the team. He's here,
the better the team, and only bring Jordan to our defense.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
And the question right now, though, is when or if
Terry Arnold will be here. We have yet to see
the Commissioner's exempt list. Is going to be in play
for him according to all reports once he does sign,
if he does sign, and that will make him ineligible
until they figure out all the legalities of what's going on.
But good stuff there from Jalen Milroe. All right, we're
a Georgetown Brewing Mayor IPA on tap. Come on down.
Speaker 4 (38:17):
We got this place got full all of a sudden, man,

Headlines are brought to you by Frostbrew coresl like choose chill.
Seahawks in Nashville. They wrapped up their joint practice earlier
today with the Tennessee Titans. He did not go well
from Jake Bobo. Is this really bad news out of
that for him? Carted off the field, sounds like an
acl sounds like he's done for the season. So bad
news there for the Seahawks wide receiver Abe Lucas and
Montori Foster Junior. By the way, Foster probably slides into
(39:53):
the roster of fifty three man now without a question
uh taking Bobo spot. Both also left early. According to
Mike McDonald. Heat relate for both in that humidity of Tennessee.
George Kirby allowed six runs in the first inning. That
was that for the Marriagers. They lost seven to four
yesterday to Milwaukee wrap up the road trip. Good news
is the Astros also lost to the Angels eighteen to four.

Huffman at one thirty, Manny and Matt from George shown
at one forty five will join us as well. Hello sir,
how are you?
Speaker 6 (42:10):
I'm doing very well, Ian and that is an awesome
thing you're doing and with some really great people. Manny
Chow has always been one of my favorites and an
absolute Northwest institution. While I no longer partake in any
sort of fully leaded beverages, I have a deep appreciation
for what they've built and fond memories of how his
(42:31):
bruise takes.
Speaker 4 (42:32):
Oh, it's very very good. They do it. They do
a terrific job down here, and the legend that is Manny.
Speaker 2 (42:37):
I will tell people this, if you come down right now,
not often, you can have a beer with Manny. In fact,
I always like to say this, you can have a
Manny's with Manny. How about that now? I would I
would encourage you to buy a may Or I Pa,
but Manny's here, so if you want to come out
and hang out with him, that'd be great. Danny I
want to get to this is why I love your writing, buddy,
(42:59):
in all seriousness. Somehow you woe with Shakespearean tragedy into
what happened on Tuesday at Milwaukee. Great word smiths are
able to do that, all right, They're able to do that.
Before I get to that on a more serious note,
and I mentioned this yesterday when we went through this
whole process with Matt Calkins resigning as a columnist from
(43:20):
the Times, I said, you know what's really good for
us on this particular show. We have a former Seattle
Times reporter, beat writer, longtime scribed for the Times that
comes on every Friday. And oh, by the way, he's
married to a nice woman who is now on the
editorial board and works for the wait for it, New
York Times, but used to work for the Seattle Times.
Speaker 4 (43:42):
Danny, I think the easiest thing.
Speaker 2 (43:43):
For me to do is just get your reaction to
match resignation what it means for the paper to And
I should point out again to people because I keep
getting these texts. It was not one column that got spiked,
it was numerous. But that that and just your old
all thoughts on the fallout that we've seen in the
last twenty four hours.
Speaker 6 (44:04):
Well, I will say, as someone who had three differentis
at that newspaper, I do think I have Matt in
the sense that one of the time that I've left,
they brought my desk in a box. They wouldn't let
me back in the building after I told them that.
So I think his parting was on better terms and
(44:25):
sounded like, while it's really unfortunate for everybody, it sounded
like there was a somewhat mutual understanding. He was pretty
firm in what he was going to do and kind
of an agreement that it was best to stay part ways.
I was bummed to see it, and I don't and
am a great I'm a distance removed. I haven't worked
(44:49):
there since twenty thirteen, but as you mentioned, like I
have a lot of really fond feelings for the paper,
and the paper has been a very important place to me.
I worked there when I was in college. It was
where I met my wife. We were at actually on
strike when we kind of started talking and hanging out
and started dating pretty soon after we went back to work.
And I was bummed to see it because I do
(45:12):
think that it represents like columnists are.
Speaker 10 (45:17):
It's a very rare position.
Speaker 6 (45:19):
It's a dying position in some ways in today's economy.
And to get to a point where one of those
were those were the premium jobs when I was coming
up as a journalist. And to get to a point
where one of your columnists feels that he can't continue
to work at the paper because he's not allowed to
speak on things that he feels strongly about, it's a
bummer all around. Like I am that, I am bummed
(45:41):
for that. I understand where Matt is comming from, and
frankly speaking, I think that if you're not if you
feel as a columnist that you can't write about the
things that you feel strongly about that pertain to sports,
and you're sports columnists, I get where he's coming from,
(46:03):
and I could I could totally see that the idea
that hey, we're just not going to let you write
about this topic at all. The Columning question about Sophie
Cunningham coming to Seattle with the with the Indiana fever,
and that that's we're just we're just not going to
run that. I get why that was a kipping point
(46:25):
for him, and and honestly, I think that the solution
to that is instead of saying, hey, we're not going
to run it is finding a way to work and
edit the column and the ideas that are in there
into a way that is acceptable to the paper while
allowing the columnists, whose job is to express opinions, sometimes
(46:47):
controversial ones, sometimes ones that are unpopular, to be able
to express that. And I would say from the from
the flip side is if if the Times did not
want to have him writing his opinions, they shouldn't have
remained a columnists. They should have done something else. So
that's kind of my big picture opinion on it that
I do think that it was a situation that was
(47:08):
coming to a head. I get where Matt's coming from,
and I think that the answer was that that Theettle
Times didn't like his perspective as a columnists. They should
have changed either his role or his position earlier on
before it got to this point.
Speaker 4 (47:23):
Could you have?
Speaker 2 (47:24):
And the last thing I want to do on this,
but I'm just curious is how news because I do
chuckle sometimes when people you know that are not in
radio try to, you know, explain how radio is or
works or what have you, or maybe on in television.
Even more so, I get that a lot, and I
feel like I feel like I feel like in TV
I hear I mean, I don't like to criticize other
(47:45):
television networks. I feel like if I say something about
what the Mariners do or somebody like that, it comes
from a place of of knowledge, like I understand how
those things work. You understand how newspapers work. If if
Matt's call them, could they have published Matt's column? And
if people on the editorial board or ownership of the
paper felt so strongly on the other side of it,
(48:08):
could they not have had someone write an opinion piece
of posing what Matt wrote and balance it out if
that's what they wanted to do.
Speaker 6 (48:15):
I think that there are alternatives, and what you mentioned
was one of the things that I thought of. I
would also say this, And when I worked at the newspaper,
there were constantly things in the off ed section of
the paper that people on the staff vehemently disagreed with
and at times were even offended by that had been written.
(48:36):
I think that those those types of disagreements or arguments
or disconnects, I think those are a healthy part of
a newspaper. I don't think that the staff should agree
with the opinion on that every opinion that is expressed
within the newspaper. I will say I can see after
(48:57):
reading Matt's column what the reds were and and I
can understand why there there might have why there obviously
was a reluctance to run it as it was. Again,
I think the solution to that is a strong edit
to to make the the columnists think about sort of
(49:21):
the full range of considerations to strengthen the column. But
I do in the overall there are a lot of
options that that the newspaper has, and I think their
their decision that hey, we just don't want him lighting
on this. That's that's a hard line to draw when
it comes to a columnist. I also, in general, my
(49:42):
feeling is, and this is very much a new media
something that is has come about within the last ten
to fifteen years. I think, I think you, if you're
willing to defend your ideas, you should have to go
out and defend them. If you've got an unpopular opinion,
that the the idea of being protected from that or
(50:03):
not not having that. I do because I disagree with
Matt's points in general, I disagree with a lot of
its political points. But my reaction to it is definitely
that there should be the idea of just not having
the conversation. I don't think it's the right book.
Speaker 4 (50:20):
I agree with you.
Speaker 2 (50:21):
I mean, I think that at the end of the day,
if we can't have discussions and conversations and opposing viewpoints
and everything is going to be of one ilk. I mean,
we're in the wrong country, to be honest with you, like,
we're in the wrong country. And now, unfortunately we're going
to getting to that point at times too, where one
side says something, the other side says, no, there's no
there's no there's no there's no conversations anymore. Danny, there's no,
(50:43):
there's no healthy debate.
Speaker 6 (50:46):
Yeah, I would tend to agree, and it's something and
a topic like this, like I, like I said, I do,
I am TRANSFID participating in sports. I also recognize and
understand that creating gender division and a difference. I don't
want men putting in women's categories either, and so I
(51:09):
understand that there has to be a scientific application to
determine sort of the division in gender competition at the
highest Olympic levels and elite levels competition. I think the
way that we get to a workable policy is by
communicating about it and not shouting and screaming each other down.
(51:29):
I know that what I said is going to pitch
some people off, and I'm okay with that because I
think that the I know that I come from it
from a place of wanting to get maximum participation so
everybody gets the benefits of these sports. I understand the
respects that people are going to have strong opinions about
that the other way, and I definitely am for on
(51:52):
respectful dialogue about the ways we see them.
Speaker 2 (51:55):
Great, steff Well, said Danie O'Neil, joining us staging apostrophe.
So how do you weave shakespeare tragedy into twenty two
to nothing?
Speaker 6 (52:03):
Sir Well, it goes back to I'm not sure when
I reached the tipping point, but at some point it
has to be some point before Friday night's game in Houston,
where I was just passed. I had given up hope.
I no longer had hopes that the Mariners were going
to pull some sort of playoff birth out of a
(52:23):
hat for their hind put. I was done. I was
ready to move on because I watched the end of
that game on Friday night, and I did feel some
excitement when they came back and took the lead in
the tenth that all right, But when Christian Walker hit
that three run homer, I didn't hurt at all. I
kind of chuckled. I turned the TV off, I bust
(52:44):
my teeth. I went to bed. And that's kind of
the setup because on Tuesday went to what's called Shakespeare
in the Parks here in New York City, our little
communist canavan, they put on a Shakespeare production each summer,
said an outdoor theater in Central Park. Tickets are free.
You have to line up pretty early, though, so I was.
I sat in line for four hours on Tuesday morning
(53:07):
to get tickets so my wife and I could go
see this Shakespare Protection Winter Tale was fantastic. It ran
three hours in twenty minutes. It was a long play,
and it was a long play. I waited four hours
to watch a three hour and twenty minute play. And
as we're taking the Crop Town bus to get back
to our place after the play, which is great, standing
overvation whole nine yards, I look the first thing I'd
(53:29):
see on Twitter, Islo throwing the ball and see how
stands was only one out? I reacted is Oh man,
people are gonna be so pissed. I thought of that
time that Robinson Cano drew a walk and thought the
or no he was on third thought the bases were
(53:50):
loaded on a walk, came trotting home and was tagged out,
and that kind of brain part, and I'm like, oh man,
people are gonna hate him. And I was like, but
that pitch looks kind of close. I was like, what
the hell that? But I'm like, oh, it's a mission player.
I'm like, oh, this is not gollyball. And then I
see that it's a nicety zero.
Speaker 4 (54:09):
Oh my god.
Speaker 6 (54:11):
And this is the point where I wasn't mad. I
wasn't mad at all. I thought that was hilarious. And
that's that's kind of where I am. So I saw
Shakespeare and missed the tragedy.
Speaker 2 (54:22):
Uh it was that a tragedy? Is I should point
out I mentioned this earlier. I mean, the the Astros
gave up eighteen yesterday, so it's not all it's not
all Mariners related. But that was ugly. There's just there's
no getting around it. That was absolutely ugly. Can you
ignore twenty two nothing?
Speaker 6 (54:43):
I don't think so. I mean, I really think you
need to be looking. You need to find you can't
just roll the same thing back next year. You can't
make your normal incremental changes in the offseason and say
like we're on the right approach. It's kind of what
they've done for the past five years. Yeah, I do
think that you have to look at now, how are
(55:05):
people responding to this more specifically, who are the people
that are saying like, all right, we've got to do better,
And who are the people that are trying to contextualize
it and maybe excuse it a little bit and say, well,
it's not quite as bad as it is. Oh, I
don't think you can order. You were there during the
Gym Morris season, how that season like just tinked at
(55:26):
the end, and really going into that last thought, there
was kind of some thought that, well, you know, Russell's
been a bad GM. The team's gotten small over his
time here. Maybe if you just get somebody different in
here that can that can make some personnel changes more
as the right guy. And I think what we saw
in that last month of the season was no like
this thing is bottoming out, Like the changes need.
Speaker 7 (55:49):
To go deep.
Speaker 6 (55:50):
And I think if this is if the Mariners don't
put together any sort of run, which, like I said,
I have no hope that they will. I think you
might see the same sort of conclusion here. Is it
enough to just change the manager. I feel like you
need you need to find an edge. You need to
find somebody who is going to come in and create
(56:10):
some sort of edge for your team, because no. Two
twenty two to nothing is an unacceptable is an unacceptable result.
Speaker 2 (56:17):
Well, and I think you know, the Julio play, while
it didn't affect anything in the reality of the game
and the score, I think what it does show. And
you know, everyone's watching Hard Knocks now and everyone's kind
of getting into that, and I get it. I think
every sport's the same in this sense. The culture in
your building, your locker room, your clubhouse, whatever, the culture
(56:39):
around the team, which is basically dictated by the guy
in charge, whether it's the GM, the coach, the manager,
or combination thereof is important. And you know you mentioned
the Mora thing. Yeah, I you know, I famously I
was very I've been here, I guess at that point
three years and had just started doing you know, a
midday show a year before. But I was at every
(57:01):
Seahawk game and I was. I remember being critical of
the Seahawks for firing more after just one years. I
got to get more than one year, right, And my
now boss, who hired me seventeen years later, fifteen years
later to work for the crack and Todd l WICKI
comes up to me after the press conference. He pulls
me aside and he says, you were at every game.
(57:22):
I saw you in the locker room. I saw you
in those press conferences.
Speaker 5 (57:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (57:25):
And I said yeah, And he says, you understand why
we fired him. And it took me a second. I'm like, yeah,
I get it, Yep, you're right, and it was. It
had to happen. I think in the case of what's
going on now, the fact that you have a guy,
even at eighteen or nineteen to nothing or whatever it is,
your star player decides he's going to chuck a ball
(57:45):
into center field because he's his give a blank meter
is at zero at that point. That's a telling thing.
That's a telling telling God. Can you imagine if someone
had a brain fart like that with one of the
two following people I will mention Danny Mike Holmgrin or
Loop Panela. Yeah, yeah, can you imagine?
Speaker 4 (58:10):
I mean holy, like, oh my god, right, like you
just can't do.
Speaker 6 (58:14):
Will I will forever remember, I will forever remember. Mike
Homgrin had one press conference saying he's said that when
a guy makes a mistake, you come to him and
you explain to him. Nope, nope, here's how I want
you to do it. If he makes that same mistake again,
you come to him and said, maybe I wasn't clear
the first time. Yeah, so just to be extra clear,
(58:37):
this is how I wanted to And if he makes
a mistake again, you gotta grab him by the throat.
You really do, not speaking literally, but that's sort of like, yeah,
I would tend to agree with you that throwing the
ball into the outfield some of the things that we've
seen from Randy or rose Ana over the course of
this season that can be infuriating. You look at it like, man,
(59:00):
something's off here, Like this isn't just guys had a
had an off year and everything didn't break our way.
They need to change the formula for what they're doing.
I firmly believe that.
Speaker 2 (59:13):
I mean, I think yesterday's a great example. They had
pick off play. They threw the ball to first and
Naylor just dropped it. And the lack of effort was stunning,
to be honest with you, like just stunning, the lack
of like give a blank and yeah, I just think
you know, Julio, this team's only going to go as
far as your best players. But sometimes those best players
need a message sent to them. And I mean Matt
(59:33):
Haspeck was a Pro Bowl quarterback under Mike Hongre and
I don't think Mike ever backed off from him, did
he last I checked?
Speaker 6 (59:40):
Believe at one point. I believe at one point they
instituted a rule where Mike and Matt didn't talk on
the sideline string games. They had to communicate through different
coaches that the best way to get the communication done there.
Speaker 8 (59:53):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (59:53):
Danny O'Neil joining us up by the way. Brought to
you by our good friends Eric Gordon and Northwest Handling Systems.
They have everything from for cliffs to palette racks, conveyors,
altting equipment. We sell, rent and service all your warehousing needs.
Request to quote today ATWHS dot com or give them
a call for two five five fighter. I got time
for just one more. I'm just gonna do this real fast.
Kate Anderson is coming up tomorrow. Uh, long overdue, just
in time.
Speaker 6 (01:00:14):
Thoughts on that, I think it's the right time to
bring him up. I do have questions about why Colt
Emerson kind of sat in the major leagues even when
it was pretty clear that the results were going out.
It's hard for me to reconcile the approach with Colt
Emerson this year with the fact that Kate Anderson has
(01:00:34):
stayed down. But ultimately I go with the start staff
has been a strength of this team. His development is
separate from any sort of and I believe your top
prospects they come up when they're ready, not when you
need them. I'm excited to see him. I think this
is a huge component of this team's very bright future.
(01:00:57):
I don't have any any I don't feel like this
would have made a difference in the season had he
come up earlier. But I'm very excited to see you.
Speaker 4 (01:01:05):
Tell folks about the day Apostrophe, sir.
Speaker 6 (01:01:08):
It is a newsletter on Seattle Sports that originates in
New York City. You go to Dannie O'Neil dot com.
You'll see a smiling picture of me by a subway.
Enter your email and I will send you periodic emails,
and I promise I will never censor myself. That'd be
pretty weird if I censor myself.
Speaker 2 (01:01:23):
If you censor yourself, we got a massive, massive issue,
my friend. We'll check in with you next week. Thank
you so much.
Speaker 6 (01:01:31):
That was good.
Speaker 2 (01:01:31):
Take care of you, Danny O'Neill. We're at Georgetown Brewing.
My man, Brandon Huffman is here to talk beer. Avery Huffman.
A little college football next.
Speaker 1 (01:01:51):
Now back to Ian Furness on your home for the
Huskies Cracking and the Twelfth Man, brought to you by
Seattle's closest. Non't call me because Gino went hotel on
Sports Radio ninety three point three kJ r FM.
Speaker 2 (01:02:06):
Hi, we're back here at Georgetown Brewing the tasting room. Man,
it's it's a Friday, and it's one thirty. Place is
buzzing right now. It's the mayor ipa release day. He
infness with you. I feel like I've got my family
here and I say that, and my wife's not here yet,
my son's not here yet, my daughter not but my
family's here and I mean by that my beer family,
(01:02:27):
great friends, Manny, Dave, Matt, the whole crew, Pete, everybody
down here jacket. The brewery are phenomenal folks. My sister's here,
my niece is here. I got great friends, Coop friends,
all the great people from Columbia Distributing. That means so
much to what we do every year with the Mayor.
Love the guys at Columbia Distributing, but also my my
family and Brandon Huffman as well, who just showed up
(01:02:50):
and now with rivals.
Speaker 4 (01:02:52):
New gig.
Speaker 13 (01:02:53):
Yeah, new gig, new gig, new digs for the home,
and a new gig for the work.
Speaker 4 (01:02:57):
We'll get to that in a second.
Speaker 2 (01:02:59):
Every we sent from these pints and growlers that we're
selling here at Georgetown Brewing of the Mayor IPA goes
to Jordan Morris Foundation helps out young folks with type
one diabetes. That's a huge thing for our family with
our son, Vilinsky's hope mental health awareness for young people
all across the country of specially student athletes. And now
they're branched out doing a lot of stuff with the
(01:03:19):
military as well, which I just love. And Avery Huffman
DIPG Foundation tell us about that.
Speaker 15 (01:03:26):
It's been great.
Speaker 13 (01:03:26):
I mean we are seeing I was up at Seattle
Children's Hospital on Wednesday one of the labs that we
support is doing just groundbreaking work across the world. One
of the leading just researchers and doctors treating this is
right here in our backyard in Seattle, and we were
able to go give our yearly donation to them, and
they are just doing some incredible things. Watching some of
the videos of the kids that they've been treating, to
(01:03:47):
see and how well they are responding to the treatment,
it's what motivates us. It's what motivates us to continue
to share every story. We're ten years out from the
foundation being established. We raised almost two million dollars and
this is an event that I couldn't miss. You know,
it's just so great to come out here and just
see people coming in here to support and to drink
a fantastic beer and just knowing that, you know, we
got people here and they are here every year. They're
(01:04:09):
at the golf tournament, they're here and they're helping us
support these labs and these hospitals that are making major
headway and trying to find a cure for this.
Speaker 4 (01:04:17):
You know, I mentioned our families here.
Speaker 2 (01:04:19):
I got my Catholic Mafia family over here, my guys
from Oday and Prep it's like the Catholic mafia just
descends on things sometimes from Seattle, right, they just roll in.
It's like, ah, Prep, it's like the one time Prep
and Oday guys get together bazaar and then Hatthrop over here.
But you know you mentioned the support and the people
you see every year. Doug Lorenz is next to us
over here. He's been. We met Doug first. We did
(01:04:39):
the brewery tours back in the day when Puck and
I did those here at Georgetown, and Doug's big kook.
But he supports this thing every year where it's golf
for buying beer. Guys in Columbia the same way tell
us about DPG Avery and what we're trying to get
down here.
Speaker 13 (01:04:56):
Yeah, I mean Aby would have been starting her senior
year in high school this year, so it's arring to think.
You know, we lost her when she was in the
middle of first grade and she should be starting her
senior year. The options for treatment weren't available like they
are now, and now we're seeing kids that when they are. Unfortunately,
if some are given this diagnosis, the prognosis is much
more encouraging than it was when Avery was diagnosed, where
(01:05:17):
we were basically told you got six to nine months
go make the most out of it. To now like
there's years that kids are able to be treated. And
we saw a story yesterday. I saw a video yesterday
of a girl that is getting treated Seattle Children's and
she's back playing softball with our softball team.
Speaker 4 (01:05:32):
Wow.
Speaker 13 (01:05:32):
And went in with paralysis on one side and vision loss.
And now we're watching videos of her striking a double
in the left field and the ability to be able
to do that. And we never got the result that
we had hoped for, but we're now seeing those results
from these families. And that's why our foundation exists because
if we weren't getting to be able to get that news,
we want other families to be able to get the
news that there is something that can be done.
Speaker 4 (01:05:53):
I want to get some college football. And before I
do that, what exactly is.
Speaker 13 (01:05:56):
PG It is a pontine glioma. It's a tumorous cancer
cell on the on the blioma which is right there
on the brainstamp. So it's inoperable. You can't do anything
to remove it because of what it touches where it's located.
So you have different treatment options, radiation infusions. But now
this cartoon cell is able to shrink it and allow
(01:06:18):
these kids who lose the ability to control their limbs
to lose their ability to see it. Now is giving
them a chance to not be as impacted by it.
So it's a terminal upon diagnosis. It seems to usually
be a matter of when not it, But now that
when is becoming much longer.
Speaker 4 (01:06:34):
Than we were told ten years ago.
Speaker 2 (01:06:35):
With the help of guys like this dude sitting across
from us, Manny and Roger and the group at Georgetown
and all the other supporters you have across the country,
hopefully one of these days we're talking about.
Speaker 4 (01:06:44):
It here, absolutely, and we will all drink to that.
Speaker 15 (01:06:46):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (01:06:46):
Indeed, in the meantime we raise money for it. And
we talked college football now with rivals. Same gig Goo,
some gig. Somebody said to me yesterday, we're talking about recruiting,
and they said, wow, look at what Fish is doing,
and look at what this guy's doing and that guy's doing.
And I said, and maybe I'm wrong here, and you'll
tell me if I am. I know that it feels
(01:07:07):
to me like it terms of high school recruiting kind
of your bread and butter. Although you do that now
you gotta do with the portal. It feels like that's
the same. I don't see like Washington's gonna get two
of the top five guys out of the state of Washington,
some four guys, four star guys out of California. Wazoo's
gonna get two and three star guys. That's what they do.
And then that's high school. What to me has changed
(01:07:28):
in recruiting and credib me if I'm wrong, is it's
what do you do in that next phase When back
in the day, you'd have a guy like you know
whoever for for Wazoo, if Gardner Minshew, that's a bad example.
Speaker 4 (01:07:43):
But somebody would come in Luke Falk keu.
Speaker 2 (01:07:45):
Luke Falk would have gone to Wazoo and he'd played
there for two years and he'd be gone.
Speaker 4 (01:07:49):
Yep, kim wardon, cam Wardon gone.
Speaker 2 (01:07:52):
You look at what Washington's just got a starting middle
linebacker who started at Wazoo and goes there. Am I right?
A high school somewhat somebody. Guys are all in the
same places. It's the secondary part of the recruiting of
this champion.
Speaker 4 (01:08:04):
It is.
Speaker 13 (01:08:05):
And what we're seeing now is like Big Sky schools
are becoming essentially what junior college football was twenty years ago.
You're not finding the next Aaron Rodgers at but Community College.
You're finding him at Incarnate Word at a UC Davis.
You know, Wazoo's quarterback kid, and Pinnick was at UC Davis.
A kid that was woefully underrecruited despite putting them greatnumbers
in high school, goes to Davis, is the Big Sky
(01:08:25):
Freshman of the year, and now he's at Washington State.
You're seeing schools that are punching above their weight. We
saw in the National Championship Game. In the FCS National
championsh Game, Montana State with a bunch of homegrown guys.
They lost some of those guys to FBS team supent
knew they were in the portal. Then some of those
guys stayed. But you're now it's about retaining your roster,
but it's also about finding those other guys when you
(01:08:46):
know you're inevitably gonna lose this corner because he's just
gonna be way more compensated at a bigger school than you.
What's your pivot? Can you find that next guy? If
you're Washington State and you lose your quarterback to wait
for is you lose them to Miami liked a couple
years ago. You go down to Davis and you get
a dynamic FCS player who's got two years of film.
He's been playing against great competition, and now he's able
(01:09:07):
to slide right in and play and win you some games.
Speaker 2 (01:09:09):
We always folk at the golf trim and Brandon drives around.
He talks to everybody and tell us every we've got
my man, doctor Rob is an ASU guy out there.
You got guys from Oregon, and Brandon tells everybody the
same thing. Your team's twelve and oh twelve this year. Yeah,
what's in a in a reality show? Let's talk about
Washington ranked in the top twenty five preseason, really really
(01:09:30):
nice schedule early and then a gauntlet at the end.
Speaker 13 (01:09:33):
What's the prognosis for them? You know, obviously, I think
with with Washington it is about what kind of beginning
of the year they can establish, because you can't lose
an early game and then try to get in the
playoff makes with that schedule at the end, they've got
to start that year seven and oh eight and er
when they start getting into that gauntlet of games, because
now you're building up that equity, you know, you kind
of can be I'm not saying they're going to be in Indiana,
(01:09:54):
but remember Indiana didn't start really getting taken seriously until
about November of last year, even with that crush win
they had over Illinois. Then they get tested against the
Penn State team that was flagging. Wasn't until November that
people took them seriously. But they had to go eight, no,
nine to zero to get to that point. So if
you're Washington without a chance for a big, significant title
type of win, you've got to just win all those games.
Speaker 4 (01:10:16):
And they can't be sinkers.
Speaker 13 (01:10:17):
They can't be a five point win, seven point when
they got to win pretty emphatically and then start building
up a little bit of equity with the playoff committee.
Speaker 4 (01:10:25):
I want to get to you before that opening game.
We'll do this again.
Speaker 2 (01:10:28):
We can spend more time because I want to ask
you about the running back situation there. I just I
hated it watching and play against that. I love Jonah Coleman,
and I think that's a massive loss. And I know
there's an injury and they got some problems wide receiver
Denzel Boston's gone. We'll get to that later on. Give
me thirty seconds on Waseoo. To me, it's a great
I know, we don't know Kirby Moore right. I think
Kirby's gonna.
Speaker 13 (01:10:47):
Do fantastic pok and I think Washington State was kind
of building for this, even though with Jimmy Rodgers leaving
and they lost a lot of guys. I think what
Kirby has done just from a recruiting standpoint is ten
times better than his predecessor did and the buying and
you talked about how Washington State's getting the two and
three stars. They got the number two player in the
state of Washington in twenty twenty seven, Rashawn Lavataie, who
picked the Kobs over the Huskies, an elite left tackle.
(01:11:08):
Those are the kind of wins. If Kirby can do
that once a year, then they're gonna be in great shit.
But I like the way that Washington State's heading into
this first year of the new PAC twelve and I
think they're gonna be a contender. Boise In State Sandue
State getting a lot of the attention. But I won't
count out because Kirby's been used to playing against SEC
defense in the last three or four years. He's prepared
for this moment for a long time.
Speaker 15 (01:11:27):
Great to have you up here, Great to be here.
Speaker 4 (01:11:29):
That is Brandon Hoffman.
Speaker 2 (01:11:30):
We'll check in next, the Man of the Hour, Manny Chow,
Matt Conley, the guys from Georgetown are gonna join.
Speaker 4 (01:11:36):
Us talking beer.
Speaker 16 (01:11:37):
Next, got George South brewing in for NASA withya.
Speaker 2 (01:12:00):
Somebody said this beer as frushable. We just saw evidence
of that. The mayor IPA is on tap, every every
bit of it. The proceeds go to dp Avery Huff
and DIPG Foundation, Lenschke's hope for mental health awareness, as
well as the Jordan Morris Foundation. Matt Conley and Manny
Chile are here from Georgetown.
Speaker 4 (01:12:20):
They're sitting down with us. I want to go back
in time.
Speaker 15 (01:12:23):
I'm standing up.
Speaker 2 (01:12:24):
I know you are okay, Benny and are sitting down.
Nanny likes being the tall guy here, so I want
to go back in time. We've kind of told the
story a couple of times how the mayor came out
in twenty twenty. I believe when we couldn't have the
golf tournament, yes, and we were talking one day. I
think the three I think it's Matt and I maybe
(01:12:45):
the three of us, and we were talking about Manny's
going in cans during the pandemic.
Speaker 4 (01:12:50):
How did the mayor come about? Do you remember?
Speaker 17 (01:12:55):
I honestly know, but probably because we were just trying
to think of ways to somewhere, like the world was
different then, and Manny suggested putting Manny's in cans and
I was like, oh, great, give me I got to
manage that like a draft. Small version of mayor just
seemed like a way better idea to me.
Speaker 4 (01:13:12):
And uh, and we ended up. You guys, you stepped up.
Speaker 2 (01:13:14):
And I remember at one point we said, hey, we'll
man he said, we'll do this. We'll bed you on
the air. And you said, we're gonna do a beer. Yeah,
and you kind of surprised me on the air. I
remember sitting in the old studio, the little quarantine studio,
said we're gonna, We're gonna make this beer the tears.
Speaker 4 (01:13:27):
In your eyes.
Speaker 2 (01:13:28):
I did, I did, and I was and I was
like wow, and you said I said, oh, well, well,
well we'll donate the money to the charities.
Speaker 4 (01:13:36):
And that was first year were gonna do.
Speaker 2 (01:13:37):
Jordan Morris, that's right, and my son had just been
diagnosed and it was huge for us. And I mean
that got to me and I said, oh, we'll portion
the proceeds and you said, no, no, everything, all of it.
Speaker 4 (01:13:47):
All of it. Because you're the man. Well I mean sorry,
you're the mayor.
Speaker 2 (01:13:52):
Well, it means the world to me, but I think
more importantly it means the world to Brandon George and
his family and the whole Inscus family as well.
Speaker 8 (01:14:02):
Yeah, amazing listening to Brandon talk about is every right there?
I mean yeah, it brings tears in my eyes. And yeah,
I mean there's so many families that are going through this.
Anything small we can do, it's worth it.
Speaker 2 (01:14:15):
You this, this brewery is the epicenter of community you got,
whether it's Bob's Brown Ale or other charity beers that
you do. This is a very open question. What is
the philosophy here with you and Roger and everybody Because
a lot of people ask, but I mean this is
you haven't sold to a big brewer, you have it.
Speaker 4 (01:14:35):
This is about Seattle.
Speaker 8 (01:14:37):
Yeah, it's just community. I mean we feel so fortunate.
We feel like Seattle's behind us. The community is behind us,
and there's always been anavigation to give it back, and
it just makes sense. You know, it's it's our it's
where we live, it's where we grew up, it's our home.
We see it every day with our customers, our friends.
Like struggles. We're doing well, So anything that we can
(01:15:00):
do to get back. I think early on when I
started volunteering from Camp Good Times where Bob's brown Ale, right,
like seeing families go through struggles, I think everybody should
spend not just money donating, but spend some time actually
getting back to some of these charities. And and uh,
you that that's the real impact, right there, is when
you get to see the families and talk to the
(01:15:21):
people that are actually being impacted.
Speaker 2 (01:15:22):
And you've been to the golf tournament, You've seen in
the Lenski's and heard stories obviously with Brandon and with
Jordan and everything like that. And you know Matt's and
Dave sitting next to you, does we only have three
headsets with well, Dave's Dave sometimes a brain behind the
operation here. He's the one has to He's the one
that has to deal with me most of the time.
Speaker 15 (01:15:38):
He's smart enough to stay sober.
Speaker 2 (01:15:39):
That's for you working for this company, but working for him,
I come to you. A lot of people come to you.
What does it mean to you when you see the
day like this and see all these people here that
are that are drinking this beer for charity.
Speaker 17 (01:15:52):
It means I mean to just sound too colloquial, that
means the world, right, Like, this is the world we
live in.
Speaker 15 (01:16:00):
It's local, it's.
Speaker 4 (01:16:01):
Friendship, it's bonding.
Speaker 17 (01:16:02):
I mean, we're sitting here today with yes, people, other
folks from nine P fifty kjar. We're sitting here with
people from our distributor, people from our bury, but also
like friends of mine from the soccer community, friends of
some of my sales reps from oday high school. Like
you go way back with right. I mean, even Brand
is next door neighbor. I saw him standing there, Darren,
drinking a beer and I was like, we've never met,
but you got a mayor in your hand.
Speaker 15 (01:16:23):
He's like, Oh, I'm.
Speaker 17 (01:16:24):
Brand's next door neighbor before we moved Arizona. Like I
just want to meet people and say hi and say
thank you. And what it means is we're all here
to support each other. And you've focused now on three wonderful,
wonderful charities. But I'll say this, if the charities were different,
if the need was different, the community would still be here,
the people would still be here. You want to come
(01:16:45):
out and support each other. And I'll say this, kudos
to Mani and Roger. Beer makes it a real easy
way to come out and.
Speaker 2 (01:16:50):
Support each other. Beer's our conduit, is it not. It's
absolutely the best conduit it is. The beer business is
an interesting one right now. It's a little bit of
a battle, it is. It's a struggle. Young people aren't
drinking as much beer. What's wrong with the come on?
But that's but hey, if you haven't tried, that's why
the tabern beer exists. Right, That's right, that's why tavern
And you can't go if you're a t bobile this weekend.
(01:17:12):
You look around, all you're gonna see is orange cams. Yeah,
the Bonie Office story is amazing.
Speaker 4 (01:17:17):
It's it still cracks me up. Tell me tell the story.
Uh do you want to hear about the misspelling? But
the Bois Office is like the most popular beer in
the area.
Speaker 8 (01:17:28):
And it's almost an accident, okay, it start okay, And
and honestly, I was on my couch after a long
day work watching Point Break for like the twenty fifth
time on cable TV, and I even own the DVD,
and I was just too lazy to watch all the
commercials and commercially. I came to work the next day
and we were talking about making like a session IPA,
(01:17:48):
which is like a little low alcohol I pa and
I was joking around. It's like, oh, it's like something
we can sell in Utah because it has to be
under four percent add three point two three point two yeah. Yeah,
And then it popped in my head. I was like, oh,
let's call it Johnny you because I just loved Point break.
Speaker 15 (01:18:02):
Who doesn't.
Speaker 8 (01:18:04):
And then you know, after we made Johnny Utah, he
was like, well, Johnny Utah has got to have a partner,
so Bodi's offa.
Speaker 4 (01:18:12):
It's got to be Patrick Swayze.
Speaker 8 (01:18:14):
Yeah, and uh So it kind of started off as
a bit of a joke and just having fun, which
I think is important in the beer industry.
Speaker 4 (01:18:20):
You can't take ourselves too seriously.
Speaker 15 (01:18:22):
It's beer.
Speaker 4 (01:18:22):
But didn't Mad Edward mad Dams, who does? Who does?
He's your Yeah, he's our sign deber or, he's our
mad scientist. He came up with the rest of it before
the mayor.
Speaker 2 (01:18:30):
Yep, didn't It kind of like it wasn't initially what
you thought though, right, body's offa no.
Speaker 8 (01:18:35):
So, I mean even when we make a new beer,
it goes, it morphs like it's a he comes up
with something and then we literally sit down and we
drink beer and we talk about it. And this is
like the funnest part of my job. I'll sit there
in front of the in a tasting room with with
with all the guys here, yeah, and we just drink
beer and we.
Speaker 4 (01:18:52):
Talk about it.
Speaker 8 (01:18:52):
We talked about how to tweak it make little changes
and it does.
Speaker 4 (01:18:56):
It takes a village.
Speaker 8 (01:18:57):
We like all provide an input. And then Matt is
great because he's really off me dwards. He listens. Sometimes
he can be a little bit stubborn, but he takes
great guidance and we kind of like tweak and tweak
and tweak and we're always tweaking. Yeah, because the hops
are different every year. The Mob's different every year. And
did you ever think it would be what it is?
Speaker 10 (01:19:17):
No?
Speaker 8 (01:19:18):
I mean we started with Nanny's and Rodgers and now
Johnny Utah and bodies offer like Boady's off of by
far as our bestling beer.
Speaker 17 (01:19:23):
I'll even say this. I mean the year we went
into cans. We were fourteen years in as a brewery.
Twenty seventeen Memorial Day we launched cans. And the few
months leading up to that, Manny and I were talking
because it was just gonna be Lucille and Rodgers and cans,
all right. And then Manny's like, body's gaining momentum, maybe
the iron's getting hot.
Speaker 15 (01:19:40):
We should strike.
Speaker 17 (01:19:41):
I was like, all right, two IPAs and a pilsner, Yeah, okay,
that probably works.
Speaker 15 (01:19:46):
We Sometimes you just find your way, you know. And
that was it. Body went into cans and nobody's looked back, right,
nobody's looked.
Speaker 4 (01:19:52):
Back so credible.
Speaker 17 (01:19:53):
Do I have time to tell a quick funny story
about the misspelling pills off.
Speaker 15 (01:19:56):
Of Yeah Yeah, so uh as a beer?
Speaker 17 (01:19:59):
It was probably a year or two year and a
half old, and I went to lunch at a place
in Normandy Park, Normandy Park Yellow House.
Speaker 15 (01:20:07):
Late lunch, so the bar was fairly empty at the times.
Speaker 17 (01:20:09):
It's like two in the afternoon, and there's a guy
sitting at the bar and I'm an empty chair away
from him, and I was like, here's some coasters to
the bartender thank you very much for pouring our beer.
I'm gonna order some food and drink a pine of Body.
And this guy two chairs away looks and we're going
to at the bar, and he goes, uh, do you
work at Georgetown.
Speaker 15 (01:20:26):
I go yeah.
Speaker 17 (01:20:27):
He goes that boat he's a great beer. I said,
thank you very much. I appreciate it, and he says,
did you misspell it on purpose? And I kind of
look at him sideway like a dog, right, I kind
of turned my head. I'm like huh, and he goes, yeah. Well,
he proceeds to tell me about Nirvana and Body and
(01:20:47):
enlightenment and coming back to he spends about ninety seconds
telling me about what the boat he's offa is and
he finishes, and I look at him and I just
go point break and he goes, yeah, you misspelled it.
Speaker 8 (01:21:00):
Oh yeah, And I tell you why we misspelled it,
because we we googled bodies off of the way that
we thought it was, and the first thing they came
up was Patrick Sweezey's face, and I'm like, that's it.
Speaker 15 (01:21:10):
That's it.
Speaker 4 (01:21:11):
So I've been in Google.
Speaker 17 (01:21:12):
So I come back to the brewery after that lunch
and man's sitting at his desk and we share desk
back here and I said, hey, He goes, what and
I said, I heard, we just missed that. We've misspelled.
But at this point it's gone like we've Bodies off
is done. We're burning the beer names out there.
Speaker 15 (01:21:25):
And he goes what.
Speaker 17 (01:21:26):
I So I get online, I do my search bodies
off point break script and I go command f boom,
search bo d H I enter enter. It was like
the third anyone out there wants to try it. I
think it's like the third or fourth entry. Yeah, Body
s a t t v A. I was like, wow,
we misspelled it, and Manny looks at me and he goes, well,
we got the trademark.
Speaker 8 (01:21:46):
And if we would have spelled it correctly, who knows. Yeah,
there's like six other beers exactly. Yeah, that's crazy for it.
Who wants to describe what the beer is this year?
Speaker 5 (01:21:53):
Manny does?
Speaker 4 (01:21:54):
Manny go ahead, Okay, so you get the Mayor six
point nine percent. It's got We.
Speaker 8 (01:21:59):
Call it dust, Yeah, tropical, piny, citrusy delicious. So it's
actually really similar to Body because we used two row
of oats in it and we sub one hop away.
So with Body, you got citrom moasaic and you got
chinook with the mayor. We throw in Simco in place
of Chinook and it just changes it just a little bit.
(01:22:20):
So you're gonna you're gonna taste it and you're gonna go, oh,
that's familiar but different.
Speaker 2 (01:22:24):
And it's crushable. It's a scary crushable, yea. To be
honest with you, it's really good, great beer. We started
putting out initially, we had it out in September, and
we've kind of moved it back now because you don't
mess with fresh off season, right, and because we're smart,
because learn. Yeah. But the thing about it now is
that for this time of the year, as warm as
it is, it is a great like come get a growler,
(01:22:46):
sit down your paddy o this weekend, do whatever you
want to do. Last year it sold out, And just
gonna ask that how many days it was. It was nine.
It was actually eight and a half days last year
because day nine had sold out. Day nine it was gone.
First year when nobody could go anywhere, it was five.
Usually it's a couple of weeks. But I would say,
if you want to get it, don't wait much past
next Friday or Saturday.
Speaker 4 (01:23:05):
No, it's great. It mightn't be gone by then. Who knows.
Speaker 8 (01:23:06):
All you young kids that are on drinking, come out
and prove us wrong. Yeah, proove us wrong. Joe say

But joining us right now that the becon plenty hotline
is our good friend Rob Rang foxsports dot Com, our
NFL Draft Insider, also does a soon to be announced
new podcast with our buddy Corbyn Smith on the Seahawks.
And so I said, listen, man, it is that time
(01:25:37):
of the year. We gonna get Rob on next week.
We'll talk about Week zero college games, which is real.
But I want to get Rob's thoughts on what's coming
up this weekend because the Seahawks, they've got the preseason
game on Sunday against the Titans in Tennessee. After today's
joint practice fourteen rookies on the roster. We saw some
of those guys in that first preseason game. We saw
(01:25:57):
some hard knocks stuff as well. Usso Ciamalo from Kansas
State was featured in that didn't have the best of
games in the world. Some other guys we want to
talk about Rob First of all, how are you, my friend?
Speaker 10 (01:26:09):
I'm doing very well.
Speaker 15 (01:26:10):
Ian.
Speaker 10 (01:26:11):
How are you today?
Speaker 2 (01:26:11):
I got great Man Brewer IM Georgetown Brewing. How could
I not be great today? It's awesome. We're hanging out
here making money drinking beer. Can't be much better than that.
Let's go through now. Obviously a couple of guys didn't play.
Julian Neil Jadarian Price did not play in that game
for Seattle. So what's your general takeaway of what you
saw on Saturday when the Cowboys were here taking on
(01:26:34):
the Seahawks.
Speaker 10 (01:26:37):
H Well, I think that that it was pretty obvious
that the Cowboys pushing around Seattle. We talked about that
a little bit.
Speaker 14 (01:26:46):
Ian.
Speaker 10 (01:26:47):
We could go that Dallas Cowboys. I was fortunate enough
to go to Oxtar, California for their training camp, but
I was very impressed by just their power along the
lion of scrimmage, both in the offensive and defensive side
of the ball, and I thought that was one of
the reasons why Seattle struggled.
Speaker 15 (01:27:05):
Uh.
Speaker 10 (01:27:06):
You know, I was very impressed by Brian Fleury as
the offensive coordinator his very first drive as the play
caller in the NFL. I mean, obviously, the Seahawks march
right down the field, Drew Lock hits Montrrey Foster for
the touchdown, They're running the ball. Everything looked great. It
just felt like they basically loft all momentum after that.
And again, I think a big part of that was
(01:27:26):
because of the line of scrimmage. Rather the Dallas Cowboys
kind of handed the Seahawks their lunch. So I'm I'm
eager to see how's that Seattle responds this just a
couple of days from now against the Tennessee Titans, a
team that has, you know, maybe be the best defensive
other than Leonard Williams in all of the NFL, and
(01:27:47):
Jeffrey Simmons. They got a good pass rusher on the
outside as well, and Jermaine Johnson, who followed Robert Sala
from the New York Jets previously to Tennessee. So I
think that this is gonna be a formiderable challenge for
a young Seahawks team is trying to, you know, do
this as they say run it forward and rather than
live off of the success that they had a year ago.
Speaker 2 (01:28:10):
Rob But if I'm being honest, I think my biggest
disappointment from that first game against the Cowboys was probably
the the offensive, the backup offensive line, the depth offensive lineman.
I just you mentioned they got pushed around, and I thought,
you know, it was a great opportunity for guys like
Bryce Cable, Dooe, Mason Richmond, two second year players for them,
(01:28:32):
maybe even an Amari Kite who gate got a little
bit of playing time last season. And then even this
year's first or this year's fifth round pick in a
guy like Bo Stevens, And I just I really was thinking, man,
I was expecting better. You and I've talked. You've been
out a bunch of practices with You've been watching these guys.
I think you expected more out of that back up
offensive line, the depth offensive line guys than we saw.
Speaker 10 (01:28:55):
I was frankly, I think that I mean a couple
of those players particular, I thought struggled. I thought Bryce
cabledoo again, it feels like he's living a little bit
off of last year where I thought that he was
pretty impressive and looked like a future starter in the NFL.
I do like his mobility. You know, he was a
right tackle at Kansas. A couple of years ago. They
(01:29:17):
moved him inside at guard and he still looks like
a tackle trying to figure it out at guard. And
what I mean by that, Ian is that a lot
of times these tackles when they move inside to guard,
then they lack the core strength and the the quickness
just to handle the closer proximity. That was one of
the areas in which he struggled a little bit against
the Cowboys and even during training camp a little bit.
(01:29:40):
And I thought played pretty well. But the player that was,
you know, competing with him to be the the young
offensive tackle that Seattle is grooming behind your obvious incumbent
starters in Charles Cross and Abraham Lucas Logan Brown, and
I thought that he really struggled. He had two miss
blocks fourth down attempts that you know. Of course, the
(01:30:03):
quarterback Jaln Milroe got a lot of pressure or a
lot of you know, negative comments, I'm sure from a
lot of folks. But if you're not getting any kind
of pass protection up front on the tackle position, then
you're kind of dead in the water, and so I
think that that those are two players in particular Logan
Brown and a tackle and then Bryce Cable do it
guard that just didn't make the improvement in year two
(01:30:26):
that I was expecting.
Speaker 4 (01:30:28):
Rob Rang joining us in this one game. But I think, yeah,
I think it was.
Speaker 2 (01:30:31):
It was right there for everybody to see Rob Rang
Critsy at Ferelius Freispizza dot com. Go, we'll look for
a location in your in your zone, your area down
the South Sound area. Let's let's you mentioned Milroll, Let's
go down that road for a second. I thought, you know,
I thought Milroe is an interesting day for him too.
You know, he he's in a situation where he's kind
of beholden to the guys up front. There was nothing
(01:30:52):
behind him as far as a running back was concerned.
I was still surprised they played Hailani as much as
they did. But you know, I mean, the running back
situation is is kind of disaster right now with all
the injuries. We may see Jacardi right on Sunday. I
hope we do. But thoughts on mill Row was it
just I'm gonna throw this out there. You tell me
if I'm if this is fair or not I thought
it was hard to evaluate Jalen Milroe in the sense
(01:31:14):
that he was under durest the entire time, and same
with Drew Locke to a certain extent.
Speaker 10 (01:31:19):
Well, I thought it was hard to evaluate those quarterbacks.
I mean, you kind of take that with a grain
of salt. But at the same time, I thought that
Jalen Milroe looked very decisive at times and another points
of the game, in especially as the game went on
when it felt still like it was a winnable, you know, situation,
(01:31:39):
and especially in those fourth down plays where I thought
that he was still of the deer in the proverbial
headlights where he kind of froze and and really, to me,
that's one of the reasons that I was interested to
see the way that Brian Flurry is changing up of
the play calling and the formations changed as the game
went on. If you know, as Drew Hawk was under
(01:32:01):
center a little bit as well as in the shotgun,
Jalen Monroe was largely out of shotgun. And I think
that's because they're trying to give him the opportunity to
never take his eyes off of the defense and if
he sees that they're playing man coverage, and there's a
lot of defensive backs carrying receivers downfield than run, you know,
take advantage of those legs. We know that Mike McDonald
(01:32:22):
has has said as much frankly on Hard Knocks and
elsewhere about Jalen Monroe taking advantage of the unique athletic
ability that he has. And we saw some plays where
he did demonstrate that athletic ability and the tight line
run down the sideline for that first down really showed
his burst is just natural balance.
Speaker 1 (01:32:42):
It just has got to be.
Speaker 10 (01:32:43):
Willing to do that a little bit more often. There
were times where he was very decisive and accurate with
the ball, but unfortunately there are other times where you know,
he kind of ran himself into trouble rather than getting
upfield as a runner or checking down or even throwing
the ball away. Making sacks is not something that is
going to aid in his progression. So I do think
(01:33:06):
that's you know that that is something that he continues
to have to work on. And again that's one of
the reasons why I'm excited about what he might have
here against the Tennessee Titans, because I do expect Jacarti
are right at running back that could be back onto
the field for Seattle, perhaps Jadari and Price. I think
that that's a really exciting matchup just because, again like
(01:33:27):
the Dallas Cowboys, I happen to see the Tennessee Titans
during the summer training camps as well. They had a
joint practice with the San Franisco forty nine ers, And
to me, you know, one of the things that's interesting
about the Tennessee Titans is they've got, you know, former
Seak Cody Barton as a starting inside lineback. They've got
a kind of a splashy second year player and Cedric Gray,
and then they use their second rounds election this year
(01:33:49):
on Anthony Hill, a linebacker out of Texas on very high.
All three are absolutely dynamic athletes, and I think it's
going to be a fun matchup to see Seals running
back against those dynamic athletes and not real stouts, but
they can run sideline the sideline, and I want to
see Seale's running backs be able to beat them to
the sideline.
Speaker 2 (01:34:08):
Let me talk about a guy that had a decent
game that the kind of jumped out and every we
talked about Montory Foster, the second year player out of
Michigan state wide receiver, had the touchdown catch, had also
had a drop in a couple of penalties. I'd say
a mixed bag, but maybe more good than bad for
Montori Foster. And he's one of the like six guys
battling for that six wide receiver spot on the roster.
(01:34:30):
Montoriy Foster, He's an interesting guy. He's an undrafted free
agent here, gone back here again. We know the story
is substitute teacher, real estate guy out of Michigan State.
Thoughts on Montori Foster.
Speaker 10 (01:34:41):
Well, I do you think that he's been the most
dynamic of the of the diamond and the rough type.
You know, you mentioned undrafted free agent and all the
different jobs that he has held outside of football. I mean,
he's certainly somebody that I think everybody is rooting for.
What I like most about him is just what a
different skill set and body type that he possesses then
(01:35:01):
the rest of Seattle's wide receivers. He's got a kind
of a smaller, slim frame, kind of like your traditional
slot receiver, almost like a Doug Baldwin type, and his
short area of quickness and burst I think is really intriguing.
He's going to have to continue catching the ball as
(01:35:22):
consistently as he did throughout training camp. You mentioned the drop.
You know, he of course has had some spectacular catches,
not only in training camp, but even in the game itself.
I mean obviously for the touchdown, but also in a
third down conversion. The touchdown to me was the best
play of the game from a Seahawk perspective, not only
because obviously it's put points on the board for Seattle,
(01:35:44):
but that was a hot throw from Drew Locke, and
he was thrown before Foster turned around to locate the football.
When he did, the ball basically was going to hit
him in the kidney, but he was able to react
quickly enough to catch the ball, you know, in very
tight space. And so that shows excellent hands, excellent concentration,
(01:36:05):
body control, all those things that you're looking for in
a receiver like the Seahawks are, and that, as you said,
in that fifth or sixth receiver spot, you need somebody
who if they get called upon, they are going to
be successful. Monty Foster I think has the physical ability
as well as the mental strength to be able to
handle that spot.
Speaker 2 (01:36:24):
Rob rang Jona's curtsy a Farellies Pizza faurlyespeech dot Com.
I'm gonna go to the defense of the second one
more guy on the offense. I want to get your
thoughts on We've talked about him briefly. Jacardi Right, the
running back six feet to eighteen out of Missouri State
free agent. He kind of showed a lot of flash
last season in training camp before he got a season
ending injury, and he's been out and then he came
back and he's out again, but now he sounds like
he's back. I'm hoping to see him on the field Sunday.
(01:36:46):
If he is out there. What is Jacardi?
Speaker 4 (01:36:48):
You right? Possessed? What's a What are his skill sets?
Speaker 10 (01:36:52):
Very quick feet, very light feet for a big man,
as mentioned, six foot two and eighteen pounds, but he
can make people missing in the hole. He has enough
burst to him that again he can kind of beat
those linebackers to the to the edge.
Speaker 4 (01:37:07):
Uh you know.
Speaker 10 (01:37:08):
I also want to see some improvement in terms of
pass protection and as in catching the ball out of
the backfield. To me, and it can't be overstated how
much I how much that's I think that many of us, frankly,
are expecting the offense to shift a little bit more
to the running backs and tight ends or Brian Brian
Fleury is as the offensive coordinator. That's certainly the way
(01:37:29):
that he uh. You know, the San Francisco forty nine
ers ran things a year ago, and that's something that
jaccrdier Wright needs to improve upon. He's a talented runner,
there's no question about it. And he's very different than
Jadari prim ways to Emmanuel Wilson or even a healthy
Zach Charbonay. But you know, he has a he has
(01:37:52):
uncommon feet for for a big man and somebody that
I think that if he gets his opportunity, then I
think that he is going to be put up good tape.
That's convince the Seahawks to keep him at minimum on
their practice squad, or I think he's the kind of
back that somebody else will put on their squad, their
practice squad. If Seattle leaves him available to them.
Speaker 2 (01:38:10):
Rob they're gonna the defensive side of the football. I
want mostly, I want to I'm curious about something that
depth wise for edge rushers, there's an opportunity for guys
as edge rushers to take a step Jalen Gaines as
a linebacker, he popped a little bit the other day.
Number forty seven. I'm not sure what kind of role
he would have, maybe more of an inside guy, it
(01:38:31):
sounds like, but he's pretty good, size six three, two
forty two. But the guys that we were hoping to
maybe see pop on as far as edge guys, Aiden Hubbard,
Marvin Jones, junior guys like that, maybe even a Jared Ivy.
Opportunities are there for those guys to make this team,
and none of them really sees it that first week.
Speaker 10 (01:38:49):
They I agree with you one hundred percent. I mean,
that's the thing is, Seattle had an awful lot of
pressures on the Dallas quarterbacks. They had zero sacks, and
that to me was one of the disappointing things about
that game. We talked about that. You know, again, Dallas
is big and physical at the lion of scrimmage, but
they had some questions, you know, past their starters at
the tackle positions. And of course they had a couple
(01:39:11):
of quarterbacks there, you know in Sam Hall former Seawka
and Joe Milton, who are don't have a lot of
starting reps in the NFL and so therefore should have
been susceptible. Since the pass rushes. I thought that Jalen
Gains was easily the best of Seattle's you know, kind
of back up and third string edge rushers. He's got
real burst and bend off of the edge, and so
(01:39:33):
I do think that that he has solidified himself as
probably the favor at this point to be maybe that
fifth or sixth edge rusher. We all know Superstars and
DeMarcus Lawrence's and the eu Chenna Nwosus and all that.
So I'm talking about the end of the roster. I
want to see a little bit more from Connor O'Toole.
He's still, in my opinion, has the best first step
(01:39:54):
and bend of this team. But he didn't get home
and he needs to. Jared Ivy with his great I think,
gives you that much more positional versatility, but again he's
got to actually get home and create some big plays.
I think Tyrese Knight was the best player on the
field for the Seahawks in that Week one preseason game.
Of course, he played the off ball linebacker position, but
(01:40:15):
he's got some experience as an edge rusher. I think
that that is somebody that Si Allen is going to
continue to kind of play with a little bit allow
him to create some opportunities for himself because of his versatility.
Speaker 4 (01:40:26):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (01:40:27):
Yeah, let's the big talking camp has been. They want
to get him on the field. How they get him
on the field, We're not sure, but they want to
get him on the field at some point. So we'll see,
all right, Rob Lemia, just quickly, again, it's preseason. They
don't they don't have to put down official scratches and
and guys that aren't playing in actives and anything like that,
so we never know who's going to play. I'm just
kind of looking at the draft class for the Tennessee Titans,
(01:40:49):
and you said you already saw them in a joint practice,
so I'll go down all but they got a bunch
of dudes that we talked about in the pre draft
process on our shows all throughout the fall and in
the spring, especially Cardell. He's a wide receiver from Ohio State.
He was a number four overall pick. The Seahawks were
gonna take him a because where he's picked, but also
they don't need a wide receiver last I checked.
Speaker 4 (01:41:07):
They got a pretty good one out of Ohio State
right now.
Speaker 2 (01:41:11):
But Keldric Falk is the edge out of Auburn. We
talked about him, and we talked about the running back
Nicholas Singleton out of Penn State. Let's let's get some
thoughts on what you expect from whether it be Tate
or Falk or Singleton coming up on Sunday.
Speaker 10 (01:41:25):
Yeah, I'm really excited about Carneal Tait. I think that
he is going to help, you know, the the young
quarterback of course, whose name we we won't even mention,
but you know we won't. The former Wazoo ties of course.
But I do think, thinking if you want to get
out of a different I don't think he's going to
be the best receiver on that roster. He wasn't particularly
(01:41:47):
flashy in the practice against the San Frans Scotouria Irons.
They did a great job of kind of bottling him up.
But I do like his you know, his size, his speed,
he's a great route runner, he catches the ball his hands.
He's gonna be a good one for an awful long time.
So I'm excited about Cardinal Tey. He is not the
best rookie wide receiver that I've seen in my little
(01:42:08):
travels here. I got given the San Franco forty nine
ers and Dejon stribbling and a lot of credit. He
looks fantastic for the forty nine ers.
Speaker 5 (01:42:16):
But I digress.
Speaker 10 (01:42:18):
Let's go back to the Tennessee Titans. I think that,
to me, the interesting one is Keldric Falk. I mean,
we're talking about six foot six two or and eighty
five pounder ian who he reminds me in some ways,
and I hate to put this pressure on him to
say the name Leonard Williams, but again, anytime you have
guys who are that big and move that well, then
you get excited about what they can be. Now, Keldrick
(01:42:39):
talk is never the playmaker that Leonard Williams proved himself
to Diegmacy or since in the NFL. But you know,
he's twenty one years old, so you're kind of betting
what he is going to become. I don't expect that
you're gonna see some eye popping type of play from
him against Seattle. I do you think that you're going
to start to see some of his upside though he again,
(01:43:01):
he's a smooth athlete for a big man. He's still
just learning how to kind of compliment his strength and
his athletic ability. But I think that the upside with
him is very very high. With Nicholas Singleton, he's a
good back. I don't know that he's a great back.
I think that he very much is going to be
part of the rotation on the back end Tennessee. I
mentioned Anthony Hill. To me, he is the linebacker for
(01:43:25):
the Titans. He's the one that I'm probably most excited
about of their rookies. And then, finally, just because I
know that we're probably running out of time here on
the show, one thing I do want to make sure
I mention here is that we're seeing in college football
with TJ. Harden for example, the Sea East and now
is going to be in a transfer portal in the
(01:43:47):
back in college football, mean, it truly is the wild
Wild West. What's going on from a scouting perspective and
what I expect that we're going to see And this
is not just something that happened with the Seahawks, the
running back TJ.
Speaker 5 (01:43:57):
Harden.
Speaker 10 (01:43:57):
We're seeing with pass rushers, seeing the tight ends. There's
a lot a lot of different players that were in
camp two weeks ago, got cut and now they're back
in the college football realm. To me, what's what's been
some of the scuttle butt in conversations I've had with
NFL scouts is that, you know, the NFL has always
kind of had a monopoly on players. If you decide
you want to go out early for the NFL and
(01:44:18):
you don't make it, well, then your opportunities are basically
over with and you're going to the CFL, You're going
to the you know, to the Arena League or something else.
I wonder now if the NFL's you know, response to
this ruling is just to say, Okay, we're going to
take away then the self imposed three years removed from
(01:44:39):
high school to become an NFL player. I mean, the NFL, well,
it's not something that the United States of America has created.
And so if they take away that that if you're
an eighteen year old true freshman who is unbelievable, has
that great Jeremiah Smith type of season, then hey, jump
to the NFL, because who knows, you may wind up
getting cut and then bouncing back to the NFL, bouncing
(01:45:02):
back to the college game. So allow NFL teams to
pay these players that much more earlier in their careers.
That was a little bit of the scuttle but is
that again with the ruling that these players can go
back to college football, well then just open them up
to NFL football that much earlier as well.
Speaker 2 (01:45:19):
Wow, that'd be incredible. I mean that the whole landscape
of college athletics changing is one thing. But now as
you lay that out for what it looks like for
the NFL in terms of the draft and everything else.
And I do believe these guys that are going back,
none of them were actually drafted, right, Rob, They were
all were Those guys were all free agents, undrafted free
agents correct?
Speaker 10 (01:45:40):
Correct? I've not heard of a single player who was drafted,
because of course they're going to get more and guarantees. Yes,
but I think that that day is coming though.
Speaker 2 (01:45:49):
God just something else for us to talk about. That's
all right, Big thanks to Fralies Pizza frilliesizza dot com.
Go find a location South Sound near You may run
into a Rob Ranger any Infornesse at some point if
you're doing that. In the meantime, my friends, thank you.

We'll take a break. Continue.
Speaker 2 (01:46:23):
We're having some fun today. We're out of Georgetown Brewing.
It's the release of the Mayor IPA. Every set goes
to Jordan Morris Foundation, Avery Huffman, DIPG and also Helenski's
Hope More to Come nine three point three KTERFM.
Speaker 13 (01:46:40):
Hi, Ian, I know this is a weird question, that
is from a long time listener.
Speaker 18 (01:46:45):
Who do you think at your station would be brave
enough to step into the kjar helicopter and give a
traffic for on the events.
Speaker 5 (01:47:02):
Or the traffic.
Speaker 4 (01:47:12):
Cho Yeah yeah, but he said current events. I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
Speaker 2 (01:47:20):
If I'm not sure if brave is the term to
use for talking about current events, foolish might be it.
That might be the better term. But uh, I missed
Chopper nine fifty. I need to get a hold of it.
I wonder if Afric could put just one more like
a final Chopper nine fifty together for me.
Speaker 4 (01:47:40):
God, that'd be good.
Speaker 3 (01:47:42):
It sounds like it's still circling.
Speaker 2 (01:47:44):
I don't know if you were you here, when you
were on the station, it was a Friday staple. We
played it every Friday. God it was offensive, and you
know what I say that offensive in a good way.
Like it was just basically basically he just he torched
everybody at the station except for me. That was yeah,
(01:48:07):
that was my and my role was you toast everybody
to me, it's on my show. You're not gonna get me.
Everybody else?
Speaker 4 (01:48:13):
You know who hate? You know who hated it the worst?
Gass just Gas hated it.
Speaker 3 (01:48:19):
Did he not like being roasted?
Speaker 5 (01:48:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:48:21):
He did not like it. Not like it.
Speaker 3 (01:48:23):
I think I think kJ R roast is in order.
Speaker 2 (01:48:27):
Let me give a couple of texts in here right
now four nine, four five, one two six. The captain
has already been at Georgetown. Is that the captain of
Network Central? Is that the captain of Chopper nine fifty
that was Network Central, Network Central was here earlier.
Speaker 4 (01:48:40):
That was Mike Benton. He came in, picked up a growler,
and left in and out.
Speaker 2 (01:48:44):
He was stealthy. He came in and gave me a
fist pump and left. Who else was here surgical right there,
Jackson stopped by. Yeah, all right, let's see four nine
four five one. Jack says, great beer, Thank you, Jack.
I had nothing to do with it, but those guys
do great beer.
Speaker 9 (01:49:01):
For that though, it was a double text so before
he said, hey, I worked for Columbia Distribution for thirty
five years and I've sold Georgetown beer forever.
Speaker 3 (01:49:10):
I just retired.
Speaker 4 (01:49:13):
Oh, thank you. I appreciate that. Michael says, well, the
mayor ever make it into a can, probably not limited release.
Speaker 2 (01:49:23):
We may, when I say we, we being we being
Georgetown may look at doing a bigger batch in the future. Okay,
there's a lot to that, but we'll see. Okay, we
we'll see. There we go, let's see, uh, Georgetown rules.
(01:49:45):
Good luck with the frustration, good luck with the fundraising.
That's from the two oh six. This one was our
buddy Marcus. And I think Marcus just came by. Oh
and I didn't see him guy, or maybe he just
he didn't say hi. Anyway, Marcus, I think I was
just like he did, like an Irish goodbye. He did
an Irish hello and an Irish goodbye.
Speaker 4 (01:50:07):
Hey, Marcus.
Speaker 3 (01:50:08):
We hog in the Irish.
Speaker 4 (01:50:10):
Marcus says might be better than the mayor from two
years ago. I think it was.
Speaker 2 (01:50:14):
There's a lot of people saying that it's the best
one yet. Now part of it is we don't have
the mayor for basically eleven months of the year, so
sometimes maybe we just miss uh so, yeah, two what
final texts before we wrap it up and get the
softy uh and six two nine comes in here? Actually,
a gentleman sitting behind me. A moment ago, we were
(01:50:35):
watching the last couple outs in the commercial break the
the Tacoma Little League team just won four to three.
They are now two and zero pool play. They dodged
a massive bullet that literally goes six innings, bottom of
the sixth, leading four to three, bases loaded nobody out
(01:50:57):
and they got out of it.
Speaker 4 (01:50:59):
How about that? Huh? How about that? I a kid,
a twelve year old. I don't know. I don't have
their roster in front of me. I don't know.

You know.
Speaker 11 (01:53:08):
I've always thought your wife very very suspect from the start,
so I'm not surprised to hear it.
Speaker 5 (01:53:15):
Very very suspect. Never trusted her. She might be live
who's on purpose. Never trust her.

Thirty three years?
Speaker 11 (01:53:38):

has my phone number? The first person to text me,
I'll give him to you. But Dick wants him, so
you knows your phone number?
Speaker 6 (01:55:26):
Right?
Speaker 4 (01:55:26):
He has your phone numbers? I guess definitely that'd be true.

see me in person.
