Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Eddie's out on alongside Jason Williams. Jason, We've got a
big show today. We've got a PJ. Street or fitness
guy at four o'clock. We're going to touch base with
Terry Nelson at three point thirty five talk about the
big Crossdown shootout here tomorrow night. But you know, look,
it's it's like thirty degrees here, Jace and we dream
of warmer temperatures. And we just happened to get a

(00:22):
call from a guy that I think listeners might might recognize,
a voice live from Aruba, probably wearing his favorite two
piece bikini ed fingers ed, how.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Are you dude, I'm not wearing clothes at all.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
Now, that's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
It said, clothing optional. And I just said, well.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
Okay, why father and millions are scattery?

Speaker 2 (00:51):
No, you know, look, I don't want to it's very
sweaty here, and you know, I'm not doing laundry.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
But the hell, man, that's right. You're saving dad from
having to do laundry yet. And see, that's the kind
of guy you are. That's what we appreciate.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
I'm a carrying husband. I take care of my wife
and uh and I'm spending a lot of money on
her to be here, so damn it I deserve that.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
Yes, so I've never been to a Ruba. How is
it to describe the sites, the sounds, the country, the weather,
what we got?

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Well, RockA Ruba, Jamaica. Who I'm going to take it?

Speaker 1 (01:33):
I was gonna queue it up, but yes, I had to.

Speaker 4 (01:36):
Fit that in.

Speaker 5 (01:39):
Dude.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
It's like being in the guy. It's like being in Jamaica,
only nobody's trying to sell you crack and pot and
uh coke every half of every street corner.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
Or trying to hack here with the machete.

Speaker 6 (01:53):
Right.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
It's it's it's it's beautiful.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
That that is correct, sir. It's just a you know,
it's a beautif place. People here really nice and a
lot of people here are from the Philippines and stuff,
so you know, and some of these cases, the only
problem I have is like you're about three languages away
from what people are.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
Speaking, right right, gotcha.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
But but it's fun. I mean, you know, it's beautiful.
And like I said, guys, I hate to report to you,
but right now it looks like it might be a
little rainy here in a little while. But the but
the Thames that went, but the Thames have been like
I'm not kidding you. I was looking at the you know,
weather channel thing and the high here every day is

(02:43):
like eighty five and the low is like seventy eight.
That is your fluctuation.

Speaker 7 (02:51):
Yeah, I'm sitting here looking at this photo that you
sent us the other day and thank you for that
on the day of the balcony, the day that we.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Well that thanks.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Look, you guys appreciate the love because I only mess
with people I love. I sent that picture to you, guys,
and I send it to my two sons.

Speaker 7 (03:14):
We're kind of an extension of your two sons, right,
you know, yes, of course, so.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
I kind of adopted you. But and my kid goes,
thanks for that, Dad. I was just walking down the
street and I stepped on the giant ice giant ice puddle,
So my gym shoe, that's on you, son.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
In all.

Speaker 7 (03:34):
Seriously, what are some of the fun things that you've
done out and about there, like restaurant wives or is
there any fun excursions you've done there, Like what's kind
of is it? Is it a place where you do
those kinds of things? Are you just kind of chill
at the beach all days.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
Anybody say, anybody who's been here, It's like, well, there's
the main city. We're kind of like in the middle
up at the other end of the island. There's nothing
down that way. There's uh, you know, that's where the
cruise the cruise ships come in and all that stuff.
And so you know, rock will I will tell you this.

(04:15):
There is a casino right now. I literally a ten
minute walk from here, and I haven't been in there yet. Son,
you'd be proud of me.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
What's Blackjack ban one to two or three or two?

Speaker 2 (04:29):
I haven't been in there yet. Like I said, I
started to go in there, but it's kind of like Vegas.
You have to kind of walk about. You walk by it, now, okay,
where is it? And then you look back. It's like
a wile that way someplace, and so you know, uh,
we're on our way to that. We were on our
way to the grocery store. Let me tell you about this,

(04:51):
you guys, there's a place called Superfoods here, and anybody
who has been here knows what I'm talking about. It
looks like a spaceship. It's like if you uh, if
like Sam's Club and a Costco had sex.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
This is.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
This is this is their this is there, this is
their kid. But it's one of those places where you
go in there and there's not but you don't want
to You don't really want to buy anything because you know,
this is a Dutch uh protectorate, right, So everything's here
is Dutch. And definitely I wor the first day where

(05:33):
you're here buying stuff. Does it's putting our condo here?
And she was like, oh, look at you know this
half price stuff And I was like, I don't know
what it is.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
So I bought some cheese but I don't.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Right, I was like, this kind of looks like Swiss cheese,
I guess, and she's like, okay, close enough, and that's all.

Speaker 4 (06:00):
I kept looking around.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
I found me found some oscar Meyer turkey. So I
found some white bread, an oscar Meyer turkey and some cheese.
But I don't know what it is, but damn it's tasty.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
That is the one thing about vacation when you go
to the grocery, Yeah there's you don't know where's this
stuff coming from? Now, likely it's probably healthier than the
stuff with all the preservatives that we get in America,
but you just don't trust it if it doesn't say
you know, craft on it. You're like, I don't know
about this cheese.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
It's it's all in Dutch. So you're looking at it
because say this is poison if you eat too much
of it. And I'm like, okay, looks good to me.

Speaker 4 (06:40):
Give me too.

Speaker 7 (06:41):
Part of why I'm not a risk taker when it
comes to vacations. I like my Kroger marketplace in Hilton
Head and I know exactly what all the labels say there.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
Well, it's like, uh, it's it's a giant grocery thing
that I was sitting there, had that cheese I was
talking about, And there was an American couple, this younger
couple standing next to me, and they're going like wow,
and they're talking to each other and they go, I
don't know.

Speaker 8 (07:10):
What is that.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
I finally time and I go, just pick one and
good luck to you.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
And you're so just pick one. Yeah, correct, I don't.

Speaker 3 (07:21):
Know what it is.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
I wish I could give you advice, but I got
nothing on this. So yeah, I'm gonna go out to
night and go to the casino.

Speaker 6 (07:29):
Rock.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
You're encouraging me right now, my wife.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
I was gonna say, you haven't been to the casino,
but I will bet everything on me right now that
you eventually will be at the casino. You have to
you have to, well, of course I do.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
I mean, and there's a there's a comedy club there,
and uh so I go in there to take my
wife out to a comedy club in a roof. If
it's like that, if the three of us got together
informed an act like the reverse three Stooges, that's kind
of what we're going to see down here. But hell,

(08:05):
I don't care. I'm in the.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
Islands now, I've read I guess Eagle Beach. Is that
like a famous beach, like a really nice beach in Aruba?

Speaker 2 (08:15):
Dude, I can I can see it from here. I
mean literally, we can walk down there and uh it's
a ten minut of walktops and we've we've been there
many times. And it's you guys have heard the well rock,
you know, because you you were in the Bahamas for
a long time and a place down there. Now you

(08:37):
know what phrase island time?

Speaker 4 (08:41):
Yes, yes, well yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
And that's kind of what was going on at this bar.
I was like, I had read about this online we
should go there and hang out because it's right on
the beach and it's really cool and blah blah blah.
And you think you're going to be you know, drinking uh,
peanut coladas or whatever the hell. And so we go
there and like people people walk by you like you're

(09:07):
not sitting there. It's like it's very it's very random,
as you know. Yeah, and then uh, and then when
you order something, it's like in the I's going to
be like, you know, water by the time you get
me back that pina colada or whatever.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
Right, and am I going to get this sued by
seven pm? We could say you're right that that is
the good and bad side of Island time. Good side
is well, yeah, more relaxed and great. But but you know,
in America, like we we we do things on time.
We're trying to fit a lot in right, and it
can drive you crazy when the store says it's going

(09:45):
to open at noon, but you get there at noon
and no one's there, and when they're going to be here,
I don't know, you know, sign on the U.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
I guess, yeah, I feel bad about it to come
here and go, hey, I'm here to relax you quit
relax thing.

Speaker 4 (10:01):
Beer.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
That's how this is going to go for me. Correct.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
I was spending a lot of money to make you
work while you get me a beer, and I just
you're you know, relax is it?

Speaker 7 (10:16):
Are?

Speaker 4 (10:16):
The people?

Speaker 7 (10:17):
Are the people you mostly run into Americans? I mean
obviously the folks that work around there, but like, have
you run into a bust of Americans like in your
condo and.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
Yeah, yeah we actually we were in a cab yesterday
and ago. Who are most of your most of your
tourists here? And he goes, oh yeah, mostly Americans and
you can get Canadians and Europeans. Yeah, so you know,
people are still traveling. And I'm sitting here watching the

(10:49):
whole boatload of there. There are these tour buses that
come by and they have their school buses essentially without
the windows in them, and they're blaring like you know,
Bob Marley songs. And there was one that had a
giant iguana on the top of it, like vacation right there. Yeah,

(11:10):
oh yeah, the giant one like god Zilla.

Speaker 1 (11:14):
Oh yeah, well that's that's yes. What about the water
ed because to me, there's there's no comparison like when
you go to you know the Bahamas, which I've been
to a million times, that that turquoise water and nothing
against Florida, but man, the water and it just don't
look like it does on that turquoise screen that you

(11:34):
get there. Is it similar there? Oh?

Speaker 2 (11:37):
Absolutely, well it's It's like the other day. When we
first got here, it was kind of overcast, so the
water was kind of grayish, and I'm telling them, I'm like,
I'm thinking this is going to be really you know,
blue water and all that stuff. And she was like, yeah,
I kind of disappoint and then all of a sudden,
the sun came out and it turned like, you know,

(12:00):
glowing turquoise.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
Nice. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Yeah, but you know, we're we're hanging here and uh
and and a couple just checked in, like the couple
of two couples and uh, all of a sudden, they're
down there playing like Alan Jackson's Greatest Hits or some stuff.
And I'm like, this one, let's stand.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
That's my vacation too. I'm not gonna listen to Alan
Jackson all the time.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's kind of what I
need to people are going on. I don't like a
slow down there, Alabama, let's take her down.

Speaker 7 (12:42):
Yeah, we're not in the Florida panhanda here, fellas.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
Well, that's the thing if you and that's the security
they have. What kills me is in this condo thing
they have right on the thing they give you when
you check in. We have security, but rolling the premises
from three to eleven, and I'm like, well, what happens overnight?

Speaker 1 (13:06):
Yeah, if you're broadcasting when you're not having anything secure,
that's when I would attack, right.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
Correct, That's that's my point. It's just like I would
think it would be like, well, I don't know, eleven
to eight in the morning or something. But that's just
me because and you see the guys just walking around.
I saw a guy just kind of set under a
palm tree out there and smoked a cigarette. The ports
women in the pool, and he's like, okay, cool whatever,

(13:35):
nice nice.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
Well, well, man, look, we appreciate you checking in here.
You know, I know you're gonna go to the casino,
so I'll just tell you good luck right now. But
I enjoy that warm weather. Boss. It is it is
is a frozen tundra around here. So you picked a
fantastic d January here bud.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
Yes, well that's I told, hey, look will they fire
me if I take another week?

Speaker 4 (14:07):
I mean he just rolled. Man.

They will have your system ready for these chilli nights

Speaker 1 (16:09):
Sports weekend, right, I mean tomorrow night you have sant
X plays for the state title. Right. I had to
get that in there, you know that, get that in there.
A bunch of Greaterson playing tonight, Anderson playing tonight, a
bunch of great championship games and great NFL action, but
a big game as it pertains to the tri State,
the Crosstown shootout tomorrow night. And this is an amazing

(16:31):
stat you see, is not one at the Cintas Center
since two thousand and one. That's twenty five years. The
building opened in two thousands. Right, that's that's an incredible stat.
And join us right now to discuss as a guy
who played in a few of these matchups, who's also
called the game in a few of these matchups. He
was the starting forward on UC's nineteen ninety two Final

(16:53):
four team. The voice of the Bearcats, Terry Nelson, Terry,
how are you?

Speaker 8 (16:59):
I'm doing great? You know we could get started. Man,
I just want to say you've been doing an excellent
job on your football coverage. Bro.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
Oh hey, I appreciate you saying that. Thank you so much.
You know how it is, man, Every game is different, right,
every game is different. Appreciate that, Terry. Let's start with
this first, Like just the whole U see hasn't won
at the Centas Center since two thousand and one. You've
played these games, you've called these games. What what is
it about the road in this particular matchup that we're

(17:28):
you know, you see hasn't played their best.

Speaker 8 (17:31):
I think they put so much pressure on it. I
mean coaches always say it's just another game, which they
know they're lying exactly.

Speaker 10 (17:40):
Yes, I mean nobody.

Speaker 8 (17:42):
In Michigan, Ohio State says, oh, that's just another game.

Speaker 10 (17:45):
Nobody says that.

Speaker 8 (17:47):
Like the coach that's going on right now, like day
is talking about from the radio and all the other stuff.

Speaker 10 (17:54):
If he loses this game, he can lose his job.
Like stop it.

Speaker 8 (17:57):
Like if you if you value the Big Ten champampionship
more than the national championship is crazy. But that's what
happened in rivalry situations. You look at Xavier and you
see and you come to play there ad Xavier, and
I know it's supposed to be a Jesuit school, but
I didn't know they cursed like that.

Speaker 10 (18:20):
And that stuff. The Lord says, nobody would have goat
to ye too. It's just over there, some of the
stuff that goes on there.

Speaker 8 (18:25):
But but it's it's all fair in love and war.
So you're gonna have scrappiness, you're gonna have all the
different things that're going on in the rivalry. And for
the Bearcats, I think sometimes they just they put so
much pressure on themselves. If they really believed it was
just another game, then they were going there and play
the way they're supposed to play. But with the advent

(18:45):
of social media, every athlete has so many people in
their DMS talking about, hey man, this is like before
the season started.

Speaker 10 (18:53):
You just gotta win the Xavier game. You gotta win
the Zaver game.

Speaker 8 (18:56):
And so a lot of these guys turn their social
media mentioned off and turn off their dms because it's
like three games ago. People are starting to say, hey,
good game, man, Hey what do you feel about.

Speaker 10 (19:07):
The Crossdown Shootout?

Speaker 8 (19:08):
They didn't even ask about the game to just play.
All they care about in this town is the Crossdown shootout.

Speaker 7 (19:15):
T and then thanks for joining us. You know, I'm
thinking back, and I know people still ask you about this.
They still remember Terry Nelson, not just as a player
on the Final four team, not just as a player
or one of the you know, top players when Hugs
was coming up, not just obviously now and all the

(19:35):
work you do on the TV and radio broadcast, but
they remember you also as the guy who, in nineteen
ninety two your first Crossdown shootout boldly predicted to the
newspapers that the Bearcats.

Speaker 4 (19:47):
Would win in a quote blowout.

Speaker 7 (19:50):
And it just it gives me chills to think about that,
because that was I mean, that was so fun, like
the build up, the hype, the you know, the back
and forth, the Hugs and Pete Gillen and Hugs and
Prosser and you guys like back and forth, just the
great players and and you guys all played together the

(20:10):
Xavier and you see players played against each other in
the Devereux Summer League and there was all you know,
But now, Terry, I hope I don't think Moe's listening.
Mo gets mad at me when I say this. Uh,
the game itself is still unbelievably awesome. It's sold out.
People were intense, Like you said, the Jesuits are cussing
and throwing things and all that. But that week long

(20:32):
hype and that build up, and you know, the guy
on the Xavier side saying we're gonna kick UC's but
and the other guy on the other side, like in
the coaches like you, you don't have that week long
hype anymore, like what what what happened to that? Like
where did that go when? And again the game that

(20:54):
once the once the ball goes up tomorrow. The game
itself is still I feel like, as fantastic as ever,
but it's all the stuff around it that's just kind
of gone away.

Speaker 8 (21:05):
Yeah, they used to be the luncheon. You know, we
used to have the dinner, which we didn't have this year.
Last year they had it, but there used to be
the luncheon. It would be all the radio interviews, the
television interviews. Yes, there'll be clips going around who said what?
And it's like they try to ask you the same
question five different times.

Speaker 10 (21:26):
Hopefully you take the bait. And I wasn't as media
savvy as.

Speaker 4 (21:30):
I am now by the way, So anyway.

Speaker 8 (21:33):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, if you've been doing this a
long time, Jays, yes you have. So if if you
ask me something, I'm gonna tell you what I believe,
I'm gonna tell you what I think.

Speaker 10 (21:46):
And this was based on like you said.

Speaker 8 (21:49):
Every every in the off season, we used to play
in the Devereux League. We used to go to Smithfield
House and play pickup games. They used to come to
Fifth Third Arena and play pickup games. We used to
hang out at the water Front. We used to bet
in the pickup games. Whoever loses is gotta pay for
the first drink when we get to the waterfront, and
it was all over twenty one, So it was these
kind of side bets and all this other.

Speaker 10 (22:09):
We used to gabble and shoot.

Speaker 8 (22:11):
Dice with the Xavier players because we hated them in
terms of basketball, but they were kind of cool as
players off the court because we knew what it was.
It was just about the game and what it meant.

Speaker 10 (22:23):
And it was so many new.

Speaker 8 (22:24):
Faces, you know, being plugged into the rivalry. And then
all of a sudden, you get this buzz because you
had three guys from California come along with you know,
you had Nick Vannexo and all these so we all
came and when they was asking me, I'm giving you
my California perspective, because that's what a Crosstown shoot I was.
It was rival gang members going at it. I've seen
a lot of the insayings and the Rolling twenties, these

(22:47):
rival gangs, the Longos, all the stuff in California when
they start shooting this crosstown because they're coming from the
east to the west.

Speaker 10 (22:54):
So when you.

Speaker 8 (22:55):
Asked me a question like that, I'm like, man, we've
seen this team. This is all the stuffen on in
my mind. I've seen this team. I know what they're
capable of. I know they got some talent. They just
are not us. We have a different thing that you
know what, we should blow him out. And when I
tell you my.

Speaker 10 (23:12):
Phone ring off the hook from every.

Speaker 8 (23:15):
News station, radio station, Bob Huggins, I mean, you name it, they.

Speaker 10 (23:20):
Were like, what are you you?

Speaker 8 (23:22):
Nobody in a rivalry says something like this unless they
got on a helmet and shoulder pads and they can
go out and physically beat somebody up.

Speaker 4 (23:30):
And oh, by the way, right, yeah.

Speaker 8 (23:35):
Year, yes, as they would have it, we did do
what we wanted to do because we kind of knew
what they were gonna do. They pressed. We knew we're
gonna throw over the top of the press to score
and dunk, not set up at the offense, and uh,
and it just happened to work out that Anthony Duffer
had like seventeen points in the first nine minutes, and
Herb start.

Speaker 10 (23:52):
Doing what he's doing, and I got.

Speaker 8 (23:53):
A dunk and had a man one and I'm like, okay,
I can do this, you know, I'm you know, and
then so hugs. I'm around me when it was over
and said, you know, Terry, I.

Speaker 10 (24:02):
Need you to retire one to O as a profit.

Speaker 4 (24:06):
I could do that, Tea.

Speaker 7 (24:08):
Is that it's part of why we don't have all
that you know, that hype and you know a lot
of player interviews and they're going is part of Are
are guys not hanging out like that anymore during the summer?
Are they not playing pick up games against each other?
Or is that that's none of that's happening now?

Speaker 8 (24:26):
No, well this is it's pro basketball now. So guys
have money, they're going over a girlfriend's house and hanging out. Yeah,
they may just hang together. If they do go to
a bar or a club, if they're eight nine deep,
they walk around.

Speaker 10 (24:41):
See who's in there, and they leave.

Speaker 8 (24:43):
So it's it's not the same environment where you know,
we hung out and played I don't know what the
video game what choice was back then?

Speaker 2 (24:52):
Uh?

Speaker 10 (24:53):
I forget what it was. But if we did do anything,
we did anything.

Speaker 8 (24:56):
As a as a unit. They don't talk the trash
that we have in the past. Now they's social media
stuff is just about the pictures that the video creative
director took and posts for them.

Speaker 10 (25:10):
So you don't really get a rivalry.

Speaker 8 (25:12):
And the coaches are so well versed in making sure
that nobody says anything out yeah, because you don't wantny
bullets and board material. Whereas you know, we had nine
guys on our team over twenty one that year, so
we were an older team yep, and so we were.

Speaker 10 (25:29):
Just like, we don't care, We're gonna go out. We're
gonna prove to you what we said.

Speaker 1 (25:33):
Yeah, And how much of it terry is the fact
that you know when you played anymore. When I was
in college, like like, guys are there for four years now,
guys are coming in and out. And just for a
football example, I have a football coach tell me with
that same thing, which is so much newness guys coming in.
You don't feel the rivalries as much, he said, there's

(25:54):
he said, there's you don't feel the hatred anymore, like
like the healthy hatred. I don't like because you after
a couple of years, you're in like, God, they got
us last year, and we're gonna get them this year. Now,
you got a bunch of guys that are gonna play
in their first Crossdown Shootout and then maybe they don't
even play in it next year, and.

Speaker 7 (26:10):
Maybe that no team played Across Down Shootout last year, right, Yeah.

Speaker 8 (26:15):
Yeah, only one person in this game for UC play.

Speaker 10 (26:18):
That was Dade Thomas.

Speaker 8 (26:20):
So there's no you can't.

Speaker 10 (26:22):
Nobody grew up on either team wanting to be.

Speaker 8 (26:24):
A bearcat, except Tyler McKinley, who's from here. Nobody grew
up wanting to be a mum. So they don't have
that natural hate. It has to be built into them.
They gotta watch ESPN. People gotta send them reels. They
gotta talk about the fight.

Speaker 10 (26:39):
You know, ESPN. It's been so long since the fight.
But they start to show off.

Speaker 8 (26:42):
Every time in Roberry Record for this game, they'll show
the fight, they'll show the tension, how hated it is.
They'll show the crowd, they'll show the students with the
shirts off, and they'll try to manufacture the emotion. But
the emotion actually starts when the game starts, because the
build up is there when they get into the arena
and they hear the music ninety minutes before the game,

(27:03):
and the crowds are already there, and and you know,
the drinks are flowing and people are lathering up to
say what they're gonna say to the Bearcat. You have
to be mentally tough when you.

Speaker 10 (27:13):
Go to Xavier.

Speaker 8 (27:14):
You have to know that whatever they say cannot throw
you off their rocker, because they're gonna say some stuff
that you're not expecting because you're like, oh, this is
a Jesuit school, and they are and they can be
more rougher than a Marquette or you know schools that
are not Jesuit schools. So it's like, don't get don't
get thrown off by what's going on. There's a game
to play, lock in and you're not mentally tough, then

(27:36):
I don't care what your ranking is, I don't care
what your record is. You will come out with an
L no matter what team is that Xavier, because no
matter what robbery it is, over the last thirty years,
it's always been somebody that you did not expect step
up and have a big game against the Bearcats.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
No, that's it, And you make a great points r is.
Once that ball is tipped off, then guys get into
it and it's a fun matchup and and it'll be
an intense matchup. Whether the hype is the same as not,
it's still be an exciting game to watch. Well, Terry, listen,
I'm looking forward to the game, looking forward to listening
to you on it. I have a great call my
friend and we'll talk against so man, Thank you so much.

Speaker 8 (28:15):
And let me get this one thing out too. I
don't want the referees to get involved because of the rivalry,
because of the fight two years ago when we played there,
they blew every whistle and tried to control the game.
Last year, it was a lot of whistle blowing. Let
the players determine the game. If it gets pushing and shoving,
you can give them a warning. Don't just tee him

(28:35):
up just in case. And then now you got guys
in foul trouble with two fouls in the first half
because of what took place. But I just want to
see a clean game, a fun game, and in any
game that Cincinnati, the city of Cincinnati remembers we.

Speaker 1 (28:48):
Be down there to Martin Thanks sing yep. I thought
it was very well explained. You know, like you know
and agree. Let it is a rival rematchup. Give fans
a little of that, not blatant haymakers gorom, but a
little a little more physical game is It's.

Speaker 7 (29:07):
Fine you catch carrying Dan right here tomorrow night, got
seven thirty tip off, got.

Speaker 1 (29:11):

check some trafficking weather. How are you looking at it?

It's all clear. Than traffic moving better north bound seventy

Speaker 1 (29:54):
The forecast tonight's staying overcast with light winds and much colder.
And here's your seven pm kick off weather in Canton, Ohio.
Go Anderson as they take on Avon tonight for the
state title. Seven pm kickoff partly cloudy in seventeen degrees
who then later tonight a low of fifteen and then
for tomorrow mostly cloudy, above freezing but still below average,

(30:18):
a high thirty five. Right now it is thirty one
News Radio seven hundred WLW. This report is sponsored Advice
super Sure. Do you own a small business? Jason Williams
and whatever are Hill from fitness segment here And look
a lot of folks out there do and should do
cardio right. You want to take care of your heart,
get your heart rate up and burn fat. But what

(30:40):
is the best type of cardio for people over the
age of forty?

Speaker 7 (30:45):
Now?

Speaker 1 (30:45):
I know you like to strap you know, logs on
your back and run uphill, you know, chains, the whole deal. I,
on the other hand, I like doing an interpretive dance.
That's how I get my cardio in but are those
two options best for us? Us checking with our good
friend p how are you?

Speaker 6 (31:03):
Yeah, I'm good, guys, Thanks for having me as always.

Speaker 11 (31:07):
Yeah, you know, kind of to your point, Rock, most
people think cardio has to be kind of this all
out grind, you know, sprints and and burpies and boot
camps and CrossFit and you know, interval training and hit
classes and all that stuff. But the truth is, you know,
if we're talking about people forty plus, you know, forty fifty,

(31:28):
sixty and beyond, what we what we should be chasing
is cardio that's gonna you know, actually help your heart
health and longevity. And in that case, the best form
of cardio is actually easier, okay, And that that's what
we talk about when we talk about zone two cardio. Now,
there's there's five heart rate zones, and you know, the

(31:48):
higher your heart rate gets, the the further you go
up the tier. Uh So zone two. You know, that's
kind of a middle gear I like to call it.
It's not too easy and it's not too hard. And
for most people listening, a heart rate of roughly you know,
we're talking like one hundred and ten to one hundred
and thirty beats per minute, So you know you can talk,

(32:10):
but you're slightly winded.

Speaker 6 (32:11):
You know you're breathing is heavier, but it's still controlled.

Speaker 11 (32:14):
I guess a good analogy would be like if if
you're late for an appointment and you know you're on
the street trying to get there, it's like it's like
a brisk walk when you're late for something.

Speaker 6 (32:24):
It's not just a casual stroll.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
So with that said, what what is what? I mean,
what are people doing wrong? Is it the the you know,
the you know, the boot camp classes and all that
sort of thing, and instead of something a little more
easier but more consistent.

Speaker 6 (32:41):
Yeah, don't get me wrong.

Speaker 11 (32:42):
I mean it's you know, interval training and sprinting and
boot camps and all that stuff certainly has cardiovascer benefits.
If you're more interested in performance, you know, a high
level cardiovascular performance, or like you're playing like a field
sport like you know, football or basketball, lacrosse or something,
you know, you do need to push yourself harder for sure.

(33:04):
But again, if we're talking about heart health and longevity,
you can't beat zone too. Because here's the here's the deal.
The best predictor of longevity. You know, it's been shown
to be your resting heart rate. So zone two is
going to improve your heart's stroke volume, meaning your heart
will pump more blood with each each beat, and that's

(33:25):
going to lower your resting heart rate. And again that
is a massive indicator of long term health. So if
you're in your forties and the fifties and your resting
heart rate is like in the seventies or eighties, that's
that's a big red flag. So like for me, like
every morning, I check my resting heart rate and you know,
if I'm in the fifties or sixties, I'm happy with that.
But if you're testing your resting heart rate you're up

(33:47):
in the seventies and eighties, the first thing in the
morning that that's a problem. And more consistent zone two work,
we'll start to pull that number down if done consistently.
So you want to try to get your resting heart
rate into the fifties or sixties over time. And then
you know, the other thing is zone two cardio. It's
sustainable when it's joint friendly, And again I want to
keep focusing on this. We're talking about people forty plus,

(34:10):
you know, busy parents, busy professionals.

Speaker 6 (34:12):
So you don't want to be beating the hell out
of your joints.

Speaker 11 (34:14):
You want to be something that's somewhat enjoyable that you
can do without pounding in no extreme soreness. And it's
also really a great option for people who haven't exercise
in years.

Speaker 7 (34:24):
Well you tell you, I mean you're you're talking about me, PJ. I.
I turned fifty. Yeah, yeah, I turn And my son
and I he decided not to play basketball this year.
And you know he's a he's a baseball pitcher through
and through, and so we decided to join the Blue
Ash YMCA a month five weeks ago. And I've been

(34:47):
I've been doing that very thing. I've been getting on.
He and I both have been getting on the treadmill
and walking at a brisk pace for forty five minutes
to an hour. And I'm feeling I don't I don't
think lost any or anything, but I'm feeling much much better.
And it's you walk out of there, and again this
is I'm not running, I'm not sprinting, I'm not doing

(35:10):
any like you know, hit training or whatever. But I'll
tell you what, after forty five minutes on there, you
know you get two three miles on that treadmill at
a you know, a good pace, and then you can
fluctuate the the up and down incline.

Speaker 4 (35:26):
Yeah in client.

Speaker 7 (35:27):
Sorry, it's it's I feel like it's stilling wonders for
me because I'm feeling better and my energy level is better,
and uh, you know, and.

Speaker 6 (35:35):
You're not you're not all beat up? Yeah either, r
you know you're not You're not planning on your joints.

Speaker 11 (35:39):
I mean, here, here's my go to I hate doing cardio,
but I understand the benefits now that I'm forty eight,
so I've been doing a lot more of it. And
and to your point, Jason, here's my go to cardio workout,
Like for zone two. I'll get on a treadmill at
three miles an hour, and I'll start at a one
percent incline and every minute that's what I yep, yeah,

(36:00):
and I'll go up one incline. I'll go up to
fifteen you know, fifteen degrees and at that point I'm
probably out of zone two. But collectively, over the course
of that fifteen minutes, my average heart rate's probably gonna
be like one thirty. I'll do that and then bring
it all the way back down and start again. It's
a thirty minute workout. And again I'm not you know,
my throat's not coming out of my mouth, and I'm
not laying on the floor and ready to go into

(36:22):
cardiac arrest. But it's just enough to where you know,
my respiration's up, my heart rates up a little bit,
and you know, I can tell you just tracking my
restling heart rates as I started doing this. It's a
significant difference, it really is. And you can also do
this type of stuff, you know, like an elliptical trainer.
You can get on there at a you know, fifty

(36:42):
rpm slow pace, start at resistance level one, then go
to two every minute, and you know, you do that
for twenty to twenty to forty minutes, two or three
times a week, You're going to notice a huge difference.

Speaker 1 (36:55):
So my problem with and it's always been this way
with cardio with me PJ is like long bouts of cardio,
I guess gets so freaking bored. And yeah, and especially
you know I also, you know, I'm not the busiest
guy in the world or anything, but I got a
lot to do it. Like if I'm staring down the
barrel of a forty five minute cardio sess or even

(37:15):
thirty I'm like, ugh, so is there something something PJ
that's a little bit more of an abbreviated time, but
it's still you know, still, you know, I can get
it in and you know, maybe it's it's closer to
ten minutes, but I'm not gonna hurt my joints or
hurt my back, but I can. I can squash it
in a little bit. Is or anything for people like me?

Speaker 6 (37:35):
Yeah, no, certainly.

Speaker 11 (37:36):
And first of all, Rocky the way I'm like you,
I mean, I can't stand outdoor cardio. I'd much rather
go out and you know, when it's spring or the
fall or the summer, when it's not too human, I'd
much rather go out to a park and do like
walk round this for thirty minutes. But so what I
do is I play Yuker online while well I'm doing
this protocol that I just talked about and that makes

(37:57):
it go by pretty quick.

Speaker 6 (37:58):
Or you can listen to a podcast book, yeah, Netflix.

Speaker 11 (38:02):
Whatever, But what you're talking about, rock you know, if
you only can tolerate ten minutes psychologically, which again I
understand that something like and again this isn't going to
be zoned too, you're gonna get your heart rate up higher.
But like getting on one of those, you know, a
stationary bike, like a fan bike, like a Shwin aerodine
or a Concept two rowing machine. If you did ten

(38:24):
minutes of fifty seconds real easy and light, and then
you crank up the pace or the sprint level for
ten seconds exactly, and like like those fan bikes or
the Concept two rowing machines, really easy on the joints,
and if you did ten rounds of sprints fifty easy,
ten hard, fifty seconds easy, ten seconds hard, it's a

(38:45):
heck of a good workout. And again for people who
are who have cardio a d D like you and I,
it's it can be a really good option. Just be
prepared for the fact that it's it's it's going to
be quite difficult.

Speaker 1 (38:55):
What about PJ the the concept of getting cardio in
during your weight training work. I always try to to
you know, not have three minutes in between sets because
I'm like, okay, well maybe I can also get a
little bit of a get my heart right up and
breathe a little bit harder while I'm lifting instead of
doing lifting and cardio. Let me try to you know,

(39:16):
I get maybe I'm cheap, right, but I'm trying to
condense it into one thing. Is that is that myth
at all?

Speaker 11 (39:22):
I'm I'm glad you brought this up. So here's here's
the thing. If you're really after like maximizing and optimizing
muscle growth or strength, the longer rest periods are. It's
very clear that like two to three minutes of rest
between sets is ideal because if the cardiovass or demand

(39:42):
is too high and you're you're racing, you know, thirty
seconds between sets, you're not going to be able to
recruit like those really high level muscle fibers.

Speaker 4 (39:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (39:51):
However, again, if you just kind of want to mix
bag and you're trying to address a few different qualities
at once and kill you know, multiple birds with one stone,
you definitely can. You can super set. You know, you
can do a set of chest presses and then rest
thirty seconds to a set of rows. That's gonna get
your heart rate up a little bit. So there is
cardiovs or benefit to forms of strength training. But most

(40:12):
of the I'm getting nerdy with this now, but like
most of the heart rate, most of the heart rate
response to strength training has more to do with like
adrenaline than anything else. I'm not saying you don't get
any cardio benefit from strength training, but a lot of
it is is just you know, adrenaline. And again, if
your strength training to want to you know, you want

(40:34):
to maximize muscle or strength, it's very clear that you
need to rest two three minutes in between sets.

Speaker 1 (40:40):
Copy well, Pagia, this has been great man, very beneficial.
Appreciate your time on this. If folks want to find
out more about you and what you do, where can
they go? What can they do?

Speaker 6 (40:49):
Yep?

Speaker 11 (40:49):
If you need help building a realistic, structured plan that's
going to include strength training, zone two cardio. As we
talked about, nutrition, accountability, all that good stuff. Designed for

Picks, win some money, big weekend man, a lot of
a lot of Marquee and NFL games. Still Stiller's Ravens. Yeah,
still there's Ravens Bengals implications, big time. They're gonna win out,
go to the playoffs, Jason, Okay, you don't think so. Alrighty,

(43:48):
here we go. I saw this social media. How many
social media platforms are you currently on?

Speaker 1 (43:56):
Name them? Uh, Twitter x whatever we call it? Facebook, Twitter,
and Facebook.

Speaker 6 (44:01):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
No end stuff for you at all? No, okay, no
nothing else. So I have Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, I I
everything else I've refused and TikTok not happening? Now, what's
app not happening?

Speaker 6 (44:16):
I don't.

Speaker 4 (44:17):
I rarely post on either one anymore.

Speaker 1 (44:21):
I found myself posting fewer and funior because I've found
especially when it comes to opinions, like you know, if
you're if you put an opinion out there and you're
a guy like me or you that feels strongly about
your opinion, you're you want to you're gonna want to
back it up, and you can waste an entire day
because it never for right and I just like whatever.

(44:43):
So I still post stuff, as you know if you
follow me on Twitter, but maybe not as much as
I did, say, ten years ago. So, uh, most adults Okay,
So the social media media use of twenty twenty five,
the results are out. Okay, this is a few research
polls surveyed over five thousand US adults, okay, conducted between

(45:06):
February fifth and June eighteenth, twenty twenty five. The vast
majority of US adults Jason to the tune of eighty
four percent use what's not really a social media platform,
but is a is a social media site? YouTube? Oh,

(45:28):
eighty four percent.

Speaker 7 (45:30):
Saying everything, But I know that YouTube apparently it falls
under social media, but I never think of it as
just think about kind of its own own thing.

Speaker 4 (45:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (45:40):
So eighty four percent of adults, according to study, are
on Facebook. Seventy one percent are on Facebook, and I
would assume, I don't know if it has the demographics
in there, but I'm that feels like that continues to
skew older the older, older folks seem to prefer Facebook.

Speaker 7 (46:00):
It does.

Speaker 1 (46:01):
Here's what I think It's interesting because all these things
they start off as what the young people do, and
then young people they move on to the next pat Well,
it's like they don't move on. It's like the young
people will eventually become old, but they stay. But then
the people that are becoming the you know, the young adults,
they got a new thing. So I thought this was interesting.
Instagram fifty percent of adults say they use Instagram.

Speaker 4 (46:25):
I could see a lot of a lot of food
and vacation.

Speaker 7 (46:28):
Yeah, kid picks, there's good stuff, but it yeah, kids out,
We're out the pumpkin patch, kids baseball game.

Speaker 1 (46:36):
And Instagram is more for pictures. It's not like Twitter
where you post your opinion about Steff. Here's here's me
at the Bengals game. Here's me and my Buddy's cool.
I think that's exactly what it is. Uh, TikTok. Thirty
seven percent of adults WhatsApp. I have no idea really
what that is. Thirty two Reddit use Reddit. I know

(46:58):
a lot of people that use Reddit, and and I
if I look up something, sometimes it will direct me
to Reddit. But I findly confusing. Reddit's it is confusing,
and it's a cesspool.

Speaker 4 (47:08):
Reddit.

Speaker 7 (47:09):
Is you think Twitter's bad like Reddit's like, man, there
you can get down some. I'm sure there's some Reddit
posts out there about some things you've said on this
for these radios, Like there's been a there's a lot
of Reddit things out there about columns I've written. It's
just nasty, nasty, nasty. It's like, no thanks.

Speaker 1 (47:27):
Snapchat twenty five percent of adults say they use Snapchat. Now,
that's the thing where you you open the message once
and then it disappears.

Speaker 7 (47:34):
Right, isn't that it's like a quick quick video, quick
video or yeah, it's for like sexty, right for.

Speaker 6 (47:40):
The is that what it is?

Speaker 1 (47:41):
Okay, I think that's what the kids use it for.
I'm just saying, I'm just saying that's that's what I've heard.

Speaker 4 (47:50):
This is fun.

Speaker 1 (47:50):
I mean all the way down is it? One, two, three, four, five,
six seven at eight?

Speaker 8 (47:54):
Is uh?

Speaker 3 (47:55):
Is x?

Speaker 4 (47:56):
That's true?

Speaker 1 (47:56):
Social man, that's actually that side down there. Four percent
tied with blue Sky. No one uses blue Sky anymore,
do they?

Speaker 7 (48:05):
Well for four percent of adults four percent, okay, blue
Sky actually their platform. It looks almost like old Twitter, Right,
that's kind of what it is.

Speaker 2 (48:13):
But it's.

Speaker 7 (48:15):
It's more for like left leaning people, right, Is that
I remember that it popped up out of when Elon
bought Twitter. Yeah that's what That's what it came out of.

Speaker 4 (48:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (48:27):
See, I don't really know anybody uses that, but four
out of uh four percent of adults who's that? And
four percent are on truth Social so so Twitter. And
I will say this, it's like, I'm sure you writing
a column or me doing a show, you know, and
there's a lot of people on Twitter, so you think
everybody's on Twitter and everyone's they're not.

Speaker 7 (48:47):
Oh I've dug deep. Oh man, I'm I've dug deep
on this. Like I have a very strong digital audience
at the inquire since I dot com. Right, you would
never know that from my Twitter feed. And I'll something
on Twitter get two likes, right or you know, like
you look at the link, and that's always been the case.
Like Twitter is not about links. You're like, oh, like

(49:09):
I'll put this out. I've got twenty thousand Twitter followers
or fifty thousand Twitter followers, you put a link, Like
nobody clicks links on Twitter except for the real, real
die hard news consumers and that like if you yo, yeah,
Like I've done a deep dive on this over several
years on the analytics.

Speaker 1 (49:27):
I just know that, you know, whatever the popular opinion
is on Twitter, you think, oh my god, that's gospel
for everybody in the world.

Speaker 4 (49:35):
Things that's not true.

Speaker 1 (49:36):
It's according to this not maybe what twenty percent of
people think.

Speaker 6 (49:40):
May maybe.

Speaker 4 (49:41):
Yes, Twitter has.

Speaker 7 (49:45):
Skewed many of media journalist's viewpoint on what people really want.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
It really has, right, because on Twitter there's a lot
I always said that there's only one one opinion that
you're allowed to have. Eddie and I talk about this.
I'm just I just thought of this one. But like
you know, Britney spears, right, Yeah, the only opinion you
were allowed to have was she she should be able
to do whatever she wants to do. And I'm sitting
here saying, well, no, she should have some adults should

(50:13):
watch after because she's clearly crazy right now, right, Yeah,
but no, you were only allowed to have one opinion
on that and a million different things. It's like, well,
Twitter kind of decides what the right answer is COVID
that was huge on that, right, and you spoke got
anything different on COVID rather than the what was designed
you were designed to say.

Speaker 7 (50:33):
Then well, it's also like when it comes to sports, too.
It's it's the barstool crowd, the barstool the the you know,
the the drunk like frat boy, frat boy alum crowd
that like just is in there with fake names.

Speaker 1 (50:48):
And it's just like.

Speaker 7 (50:51):
You, you're not really my audience, and like what like
why am I sitting here wasting time at fifty years
old journalists like you know, and I don't have all
the answers and I've you know whatever, But like I'm
not gonna sit here and feed like especially when you
don't you want to, you want to use your real name?
Can I Can I share something else with you?

Speaker 1 (51:12):
Wrong?

Speaker 6 (51:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (51:12):
Please?

Speaker 7 (51:13):
You know what drives me crazy is when someone someone
just absolutely beats the hell out of you on social media.
Then when you see him in person, does this ever
happened with you? Oh yeah of course, like like nothing happened,
Like they've never said a word.

Speaker 2 (51:29):
Hey, how you doing.

Speaker 4 (51:31):
I don't play that game, man.

Speaker 7 (51:32):
I always feel like if I'm going to say something,
if I'm going to say something about you and a column,
I'm going to you know, on social media, I'm going
to say it to your face.

Speaker 1 (51:42):
Has always the whole internet muscles, Yeah, muscles thing see
I guess I'm not built for the internet.

Speaker 8 (51:49):
Man.

Speaker 1 (51:49):
No, So so you said your columns that you would think, Yeah,
you link your column in a Twitter and you have
fifty thousand Twitter followers, then that's going to drive. So
so how do how are most people accessing what you do?

Speaker 7 (52:02):
Like through the end car website, yea, through through the
Cincinnati dot com the app, and through Google. Google is huge, huge, huge, huge, Yes, Google?
So is you, I know, worth advertising? It's like Google
blows away, like like Twitter, social media. What was I

(52:24):
gonna say, Yeah, I wrote a column was a year
and a half ago or something like. I actually quit
Twitter for a pretty long time. And it was because
I had done this deep dive on it because I
it was just making my blood boil because I'm getting
in there and then I'm sitting there drafting out tweets
to try to think of a snarky response to people, right,
and then I'm sitting there like no, and then you delete.

(52:46):
I always joke with my old front Sherry Coolidge. We
always joked to tweet We're gonna write a book someday.

Speaker 4 (52:52):
Tweets. We never said.

Speaker 1 (52:55):
I would have some I would have a chapter too
as well. Yeah, yes, you draft that and don't hit sin.

Speaker 4 (53:04):
Don't don't hit sin.

Speaker 7 (53:06):
I've gotten much much better about that over the years
of not hitting send on that. That's when it comes to.
If I'm mad at my wife on a text message,
you're mad at someone on email. I've gotten much better
at that. And the same thing with social media. But
like NPR did this deep dive study where they they
looked at analytics of like how many people are coming
to their stories and you know, it's MPR, I understand,

(53:29):
but it was right. They they found that less than
one percent of people were clicking into their digital stories
across all their platforms from Twitter, and that that that
very much aligns with what I've found.

Speaker 4 (53:45):
It's really it is, it's just people on there.

Speaker 7 (53:47):
Like you know, what I love about Twitter is fun
during a live event, whether it's an election, whether it's
a team you know, like tomorrow night during the crossdown shootout,
Twitter will be fun. You know, it's fun to like follow,
you know, or or during a Bengals game like it
that's a fun, stuffy and you're getting your you're getting

(54:10):
your live updates to on the game from there and
then they're shared. You're exactly right, shared misery like that
to me is what I always enjoyed about Twitter X. Again,
a lot of people still call it Twitter is like
for a live event like election night, I've got the
TV up, oh my god, but I've also got Twitter
going because it's it's just entertainment.

Speaker 1 (54:31):
Yeah, no, it's entertainment. I will say, I use X
because I still think, you know, if you're careful, and
I think I am, if you know, like what sits
the fall, you can get you can get good news,
you know, I mean you can get again if you're careful,
you can't you know, believe everything. You got to be
disciplined about it. But it's good for getting lots of

(54:54):
your news, kind of concise boom, what's going on?

Speaker 2 (54:57):
I do.

Speaker 4 (54:58):
Yeah, I'm the same.

Speaker 7 (54:59):
I've come back to it for that purpose where I'm
kind of checking it, you know a couple of times
a day.

Speaker 5 (55:05):
Now.

Speaker 7 (55:05):
I'm not as nearly as addicted as I used to be,
but uh yeah, I just I got off of it
for a while and I stopped and engaging because I realized, like,
what is this doing for my audience or in terms
of like driving And when I say audience, I mean like, well,
that's the paying cut.

Speaker 1 (55:23):
The loyal, the loyal, the loyal reader of.

Speaker 7 (55:26):
The Inquirer Cincinnati dot com. The person that invests time
and money same same thing, you know, the the loyal listener.

Speaker 6 (55:33):
Of w l W.

Speaker 7 (55:34):
I which I don't I don't know the wl W
metrics or whatever, but you know, I'm just a you know,
contributor here. But my gut tells me that a great
majority of the of the loyal everyday listener of w
l W probably isn't sitting there on Twitter all day long,
if at all exact and me, those are the loyal

(55:56):
local news consumers that are that are that are really
critical to you know, yeah, the things that we do.

Speaker 1 (56:01):
And you're smart to say, look, what's going to benefit
me in my career. If it's not, if it's you know,
not worrying about Twitter, then then why do it?

Speaker 8 (56:12):
You know?

Speaker 1 (56:12):
So yeah, very very good, good thought. All right, let's
go ahead and check some trafficking weather. How are we
looking at you from the U SEE Health Traffic Center.
You see Health's weight laws that are offering a surgical
and medical ob city care and expertise called five point
three ninety three nine twenty two sixty three ninety three
nine twenty two sixty three. We have the south downs
through the road hoorc on seventy five southbound Wronald Ring

As we have the sod downs to Shepherd. Big delays

News Radio seven hundred WLW. This report is sponsored by
Miami Valley Gaming. Good to Miami Valley Gaming.

Speaker 6 (57:35):
All right back with.

Speaker 1 (57:36):
Rocky alongside Jason Williams and Jason. It's that time of
the week, that time of the day where we check
in thank them for the big picks of the weekend.
Lots of great NFL action, lots of course, a great
college action with being a championship weekend. And to do
that we check in with our good friend Jason Hoffman
of The Inquirer. Jason, how are you give me a

(57:57):
little summary of how we did last week?

Speaker 6 (58:01):
It was our worst week of the year.

Speaker 10 (58:03):
I'm not gonna lie.

Speaker 3 (58:04):
We went over three on Thanksgiving. But luckily, the as
I always said, I'm happy to be wrong when the
Bengals pulled out, but Monday night saved us money wise.
The Patriots put an absolute beat down on the Giants, which.

Speaker 2 (58:20):
I said was gonna happen.

Speaker 10 (58:22):
So all's well.

Speaker 2 (58:23):
That ends well right.

Speaker 7 (58:24):
It's the only time I can curse you, man, damn
you as my boss at the Inquiry. But now I'm
on the radio and I can tell you your picks.

Speaker 8 (58:33):
Man.

Speaker 4 (58:33):
I'm just kidding. I don't do well on Thanksgiving, I either.

Speaker 1 (58:39):
I think everybody had had Ravens over Bengals. Was that one?

Speaker 8 (58:45):
All right?

Speaker 1 (58:46):
Would Jays? Let's move into here this week. A huge
game tonight, the Cowboys at the Lions. Lions, I can't
really figure them out. In some ways they look dominant.
In other ways they look very yeah, exactly, and the
Cowboys kind of surgeon, I mean, kind of getting hot

(59:06):
at the right time.

Speaker 7 (59:07):
Here.

Speaker 1 (59:07):
I'm seeing let's see Detroit minus three though.

Speaker 3 (59:13):
Yeah, I like the Cowboys in the spot. Honestly, I
don't know what the Lions are right now. They lost
their offensive identity. It's taken all season to show it.
But just the creativity in the run game is not there.
They have the horses, but I'm un rossing Brown is hurt.
I'm taking the Dallas. I'm taking Dallas minus the points tonight,
and I honestly think they might win by a touchdown

(59:35):
or more.

Speaker 4 (59:36):
Wow.

Speaker 7 (59:37):
Wait, let's jump let's keep going with the big games
man jump over to Sunday AFC North Showdown. Certainly this
has implications for the Bengals. Steelers at Ravens, I saw
it was at six Pittsburgh or the Ravens favored by six.
I see that's now down to five and a half

(59:58):
on ESPN.

Speaker 4 (01:00:01):
What do you got there?

Speaker 3 (01:00:04):
Yeah, the best outcome for this game would honestly be
a tie. But I like both home teams because they're
gonna play twice. I like both home teams when it's
gonna happen. So I'm taking the Ravens and this minus
to points, and I'll eventually take the Steelers plus or

(01:00:24):
minus whatever when they play at home.

Speaker 1 (01:00:26):
All right, And as we've discussed on these airwaves and others,
have the Bengals need to win out and the Steelers
and Ravens who have to play another time after this one,
they got to split, So the Ravens got to win
this time, and then the Steelers got to win next time,
vice versa. That's obviously just discussing the Bengals playoffs if

(01:00:47):
the Bengals went out, if they.

Speaker 4 (01:00:49):
Went out, which we'll get to in a minute.

Speaker 1 (01:00:51):
How about this one, Jase, My Tennessee Titans running away
with getting the number one overall pick here in a
couple of months at one and eleven against the Cleveland Browns.
We've got cam Ward Vanders. If you're interested in such things.
I'm seeing Cleveland minus four and a half.

Speaker 3 (01:01:13):
Yeah, this is a game for the true so that
goos out there.

Speaker 1 (01:01:17):
That is why we're doing it.

Speaker 2 (01:01:19):
I'm included in that. I'm gonna actually watch.

Speaker 3 (01:01:23):
I'm not gonna watch this game live because it's gonna
be one on the same time the Bengals were playing,
but I I'm gonna be interested to see how cam
Ward looks and Shador looks. I mean he Chadors made
some really awful plays where he escapes the pocket way
too early. The main thing I'm taking here. Then I'm
gonna take the Browns minus the points. But I'm also
gonna play the under, which is a surprisingly low thirty

(01:01:45):
three and a half, because I don't know that either
offense is good enough to really put that many points.

Speaker 2 (01:01:51):
So that's where I'm.

Speaker 3 (01:01:52):
Out on this one. And congratulations, NFL fans, enjoy if
you want.

Speaker 4 (01:01:57):
Well, I'm glad you had the under.

Speaker 7 (01:01:59):
The under seems to be a pretty good thing to
pick when it comes to the Cleveland Browns, especially in
Cleveland well whatever they call it, Huntington bank Field in Cleveland. Now,
I mean last week, I think the I think the
spread went for or the over underwent from thirty eight
and a half down to what thirty four and a
half or something like that, But yeah, I'm with you

(01:02:19):
on that under, Jay. Let's switch over to sticking with
one o'clock on Sunday. Commanders at Vikings. Another battle of
a couple teams of losing records right now, but right
now Minnesota favored by two points.

Speaker 4 (01:02:38):
What do you got there?

Speaker 3 (01:02:40):
Yeah, this is a spot where I thought the Commanders
should be favored, honestly, just because it looks like Minnesota
the team just is not playing for JJ McCarthy, and
I like the Commanders in this spot, even though it's
gonna be Marcus Mariota. Again, he's a veteran, He's not
gonna probably put the ball in bad spots too many times.

(01:03:04):
And I just think their offensive play design is gonna
win out the day. But I'd look for another low
scoring game in this one too, So the under is
a good possibility.

Speaker 1 (01:03:14):
All right. Well, let's move on to a really good
game here, and that's Bears Packers Division match up here.
Bears at nine and three, the Packers at eight and three.
I think both teams look really good. Both teams, you know,
have quarterbacks that are playing well. There's always a relationship there.
And Ben Johnson, you could argue that's maybe the reason

(01:03:37):
the Lions don't look as good because ever since he
came over from the Lions, now the head coach at
the Bears, Lions offense not as potent the Bears offense,
I mean running the ball. Caleb Williams is, you know,
has looked a lot better. But the Packers also looking
pretty good as well. And I'm seeing I think a
pretty big line Steelers minus six and or scuming Packers

(01:04:00):
there's minus six and a half.

Speaker 3 (01:04:03):
Yeah, I agree with you on the Ben Johnson thing.
Caleb Williams led the NFL and being sacked last year
and he's nowhere near that this year. And I attribute
that a lot to coaching. He's taught, as I just said,
with escape in the pocket, with Shadoor Sanders way too early.
He's taught Caleb Williams how to step up, how to
be an actual NFL quarterback. I like what the Bears

(01:04:26):
are doing. I just think the Packers are too much
in this game. I'm not a huge fan of the spread,
but as long as it stays under seven, I will
take Green.

Speaker 4 (01:04:33):
Bay let's go back over to the AFC and.

Speaker 7 (01:04:40):
You could sit here and say, I don't want what's
really intriguing about this game, but Texans at Chiefs Chiefs
right now who are dangerously teetering on maybe not making it. Yeah,
Chiefs favored by what three and a half? Yeah, the
Texans team is one of those you know, Oh they're

(01:05:00):
seven and five. They're good one week, they're not good
the next week. But then you can say the same
thing about the Chiefs. I think the one thing for
the Chiefs right now is even though they're six and
six overall, they're five and one at home.

Speaker 3 (01:05:13):
What do you got there, Jay, Yeah, I'm all over
the Chiefs in this spot. I don't think that they're
gonna even I don't think the Texas are going to
get within a touchdown in this game. I look for
the Chiefs to control.

Speaker 4 (01:05:26):
The ball all day long.

Speaker 3 (01:05:28):
And you have another maybe one or two trick plays
that any re draws up where they do some awkward
formations and motions and stuff like that that just leads
to a big play here and there. I'm all over
the Chiefs in this like I said, And to be honest,
this is throwback to the old old school WWF days.

(01:05:49):
This is a loser leaves town game. Basically, if the
Chiefs lose, I don't really see a pass for them
to the playoffs.

Speaker 6 (01:05:55):
To be honest.

Speaker 3 (01:05:56):
Yeah, And if lose, they're their playoff chances are also
going to take a hit. So yeah, give me the Chiefs.

Speaker 6 (01:06:05):
All day long.

Speaker 4 (01:06:05):
Well, yeah, should be a big one.

Speaker 1 (01:06:07):
All right, let's go to the big match up here
with the Cincinnati Bengals at the Buffalo Bills. It's supposed
to be snowing, it's supposed to be cold. Josh Allen,
I saw this stat and it's been out there published
a pretty you know a lot, seventy six career rushing touchdowns,
which is more than more rushing touchdowns than Earl Campbell Head,

(01:06:30):
more rushing touchdowns than Thurman Thomas Head. I mean, it's
an incredible stat that he is, I mean a lot
because of his you know the fact that he doesn't
get hurt and he plays a lot but down on
the red zone. Man, they love Josh Allen that this
is a team that college esk.

Speaker 5 (01:06:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:06:46):
Yeah, And this is a Bills team that you know
when I see him that they want to run the
ball like It's not really much a downfield passing attack
as maybe we've even seen in previous years that Josh Allen,
this is a run the ball team here against the Bengals,
team that has had trouble stopping the run at many
many points this past year. I'm seeing the Bills minus

(01:07:09):
five and a half over your Cincinnati Bengals.

Speaker 3 (01:07:15):
Yeah, I'm gonna have to take the Bengals in this spot.
If it was three or two and a half, I
would probably take the Bills. I don't know that the
Bengals can pull this out, to be honest, but I
will say that the defense has been resurgent. They certainly
they're not going to get five turnovers on Sunday, and
if they somehow do, I'll gladly admit that I was wrong.

(01:07:36):
But that game against Baltimore was I think a one
off and outlier, if you will. Against the Ravens on Thanksgiving,
I think Joe Burrow keeps it close. The offense moves
the ball pretty well, but doesn't have as many explosive
plays as people are probably hoping for, especially in those

(01:07:57):
weather conditions. So yeah, give me the Bengals plus the
and a half. And I'm also going to take the
over of I think it was fifty three last I saw.

Speaker 1 (01:08:05):
I'm seeing fifty three and a half. So even in
potential weather situations, you're saying fifty three and a half.

Speaker 3 (01:08:12):
Huh yeah, just because that field is heated underneath, it's
not as bad as if you were playing and say
frigid frozen grass and whatnot, and you can't move the
ball at all, you can't get any push.

Speaker 4 (01:08:26):
Off the line.

Speaker 7 (01:08:27):
Great stuff. Let's switch gears and go over to the
college game. Number one in Ohio State, Number two Indiana
Big Ten Championship game and Lucas Oil Field, really right
in the wheelhouse of both fan bases right there in Indianapolis.

Speaker 4 (01:08:47):
Ohio State favored by four points. What do you like there?

Speaker 3 (01:08:55):
I am all over Ohio State. As long as it
stays under a touchdown. They have the better team, they
have the superior talent. I just don't see a way
that Indiana gets this within a field goal or even
four points whatever. So give me Ohio State as long

(01:09:15):
as it stays under a touchdown. I might move the
line to a touchdown and see how that plays out.

Speaker 2 (01:09:22):
But yeah, I'm all over Ohio.

Speaker 1 (01:09:23):
Statements all right in the over under forty seven and
a half. What do you like there?

Speaker 6 (01:09:28):
I like the over.

Speaker 3 (01:09:30):
I when I originally handicapped this, I thought it should
be around fifty four. I think there might be sixty
points scored in this game as long as Mendoza and
then Indian offense move the ball like they have. They
have one of the best receivers in the country as well.
So yeah, give me, give me Ohio State and the
over all.

Speaker 1 (01:09:50):
Right, well, one more day. It's just because I always
like lines that are that are pretty big, and I'm
seeing in the Big twelve championship game BYU in Texas Tech.
Texas Tech minus twelve and a half. That's a big
damn number, especially for being an over under of forty
nine and a half. Looks like the Sharks, like the
Red Raiders, a lot of the Cougars.

Speaker 3 (01:10:13):
Yeah, when they played before, I believe Texas Tech won
by thirteen if I remember correctly, or fourteen they did.

Speaker 4 (01:10:21):
They won twenty nine to seven, and that game was
at Texas Tech.

Speaker 6 (01:10:25):
Yep, I just pulled out.

Speaker 10 (01:10:28):
I was winning.

Speaker 2 (01:10:30):
Look BYU, as we all.

Speaker 3 (01:10:33):
Know, because of the missionary requirement, all that has the
oldest team in the league. Every year has the oldest
team in college football every year. They are grown men,
as we like to say. But Texas Tech what they've
been doing with building the roster through nil they just
have dudes everywhere there and just to borrow from the

(01:10:53):
same state. They're almost like Houston basketball is in college basketball,
they are to football.

Speaker 10 (01:11:00):
Yep. So give me Texas Tech.

Speaker 3 (01:11:03):
I think they're one of the best, maybe six teams
in the country. I don't know if I put them
top five, but they I think they can play with anybody.
And I just think it's going to be a little
too much for BYU to handle, even though like I said,
they have the order.

Speaker 1 (01:11:18):
Works, yeah, and I think that would make it easier
if you're an Irish fan. If BYU wins, then the
committee I think has to find a way to get
BYU in there, and that's one less spot for the Irish.
But I'm not biased or anything, Jace. We really appreciate it, man.

Sounds like NaN's and I are at back at the
wilder location of Long Neck, so it's not as far
of a flight, but.

Speaker 4 (01:13:30):
Now I hear it rumbling up there on the roof.
Right now.

Speaker 1 (01:13:33):
There they got the meal getting prepared in the champagne
and the whole deal. But until then, Jays, let's leave
with this. We got one day, Jason tomorrow, maybe a
very very big day. Okay, there is a I'm sure
you've heard of it. R. Yeah, it is a big day,
right Cross that we're talking about, even bigger, even bigger.
We're talking.

Speaker 4 (01:13:52):
So you heard this.

Speaker 1 (01:13:54):
You know, she's a mystic clairvoyant. She predicts the future. Right,
her name is Babaa, all right, and now she she
died in nineteen ninety six, but she has all these
predictions that she has made and some of them have
come true. Okay, she's the blind sidekick. She allegedly four
told nine to eleven. She foretold I believe in the

(01:14:16):
COVID nineteen pandemic and a few other things. Well, she
has announced that tomorrow, okay, and this is through her
like her family members that she would tell certain stuff too,
and they've documented it and this and that. Yeah, well
tomorrow she is saying that aliens will appear. That's it,

(01:14:37):
Tomorrow's it.

Speaker 4 (01:14:39):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:14:39):
Specifically, I described a UFO that would appear, quote like
new light in the sky, and humanity would meet these
extra trescials for the first time. And this also coincides
with a soccer match, the FIFA World Cup Drawl, So
she's combined two events, the World Cup Drawl, all right,

(01:15:02):
for a FIFA and the UFO that will come down
and make once and for all extraterrestrials do exist.

Speaker 4 (01:15:09):
Jason, are you excited.

Speaker 7 (01:15:11):
I'm pumped, especially if it's like e t is he
If ET is coming back, that'd be fun.

Speaker 1 (01:15:17):
Yeah, it would be fun if they were like like
just big, like you know, like twelve foot tall, like
just juiced up, like like soldier looking like aliens, because
that wouldn't you know, that wouldn't look well. I mean,
I guess what I mean is that Et was harmless
except for when he got that weird disease thing got
sick or whatever. But anyway, people, yeah, speaking pandemic, I

(01:15:39):
mean she predicted that. Yeah, but by the way, they're
not like, like, aliens are gonna come down and do
harm to the human race, right you think they will?
They won't.

Speaker 4 (01:15:50):
I'm hoping they won't. Hoping they won't. That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:15:53):
What do you think they'll do? Because this could happen
to Mark right right? Right?

Speaker 7 (01:15:58):
Uh Oh, I'm not prepared to answer that because I
haven't a right like, this wasn't something we need to
be thinking about, right, Like what if aliens came?

Speaker 1 (01:16:07):
And I've always thought that aliens wouldn't. I don't think
they would necessarily be hostile, but I should think they
wouldn't care about us. In the same way if if
you're walking to your car and you accidentally step on
a bug, you're not trying to kill the bug, but
it's there and you're like, you know you two seconds
later you forget about it. You walk over an ant

(01:16:29):
hill and kill the whole colony. You're not trying to
kill the ant calling, you're just whatever. I got other
things to do. It's just it's it's meaningless to you.

Speaker 2 (01:16:38):
That's what I like.

Speaker 4 (01:16:39):
You'll just see these the aliens.

Speaker 7 (01:16:41):
You think it'll be a rare occurrence to see one,
or they'll be everywhere, walking through the mall, down the street.

Speaker 1 (01:16:48):
They'll come in like one kind of singular location and
maybe others. I did see a clip of the Joe
Rogan podcast or this guy who's made a documentary about it,
and he said, these things are you know, of course,
now these things are one hundred percent real. All the
world leaders know about it. Trump knows about it, and
is just, you know, deciding whether he wants to be

(01:17:08):
the one to get out ahead of this and say, hey, look,
these things are real and I love it.

Speaker 4 (01:17:13):
You better get ready.

Speaker 7 (01:17:14):
Well, I mean, in a matter of hours here I know,
I haven't had time to get enough milk and bread.
There are some of these predictions that I wish this
lady hadn't come true. Certainly I guess most of them right,
So yeah, I know she helping. This one doesn't either.

Speaker 1 (01:17:29):
Now maybe these are just the ones that are more celebrated.
But yeah, it's you know, all of her predictions have
been bad. Yeah, negative events. So we shall see. But
I hope I'm alive for when it happens, and again,
God willing, they will be.

Speaker 4 (01:17:47):
Well, you're pretty wealthy. I think you're going to make
it another day.

Speaker 1 (01:17:49):
So they're gonna make another day. I know, if it
is tomorrow, What a what an amazing day that'll be
if you can be alive during the time. We're like,
you know, it is undeniable. Here they are, they live
among us, they have lived among us.

Speaker 7 (01:18:05):
Who knows, well, will Segment come into work that day
or what? He'll treat that like a like a snow
day where no matter what, no matter how clear the
roads are, no matter what time the snow stops.

Speaker 1 (01:18:18):
Aliens park in front of the parker in front of
the TV. Actually, I don't know if I'll come into
work either, aliens are on Well, actually, it would be
kind of fun to document that, Like I can say,
I'm I was on air the Importing Live about the
ins and outs of the invasion.

Speaker 7 (01:18:34):
Yeah, and that has that had that is tailor made
for Eddie and Rocky show. Yeah, that topic that is
AI Little AI if you can find a way to
get some because you guys in my official AI AI show,
we always.

Speaker 1 (01:18:51):
Say we were on top of this like five years
ago when people were like this stuff like this is
has the ability to like change and you and you
see the like like videos anymore. I don't know about
you videos anymore. I don't I always every single one
of them.

Speaker 4 (01:19:07):
I wonder.

Speaker 7 (01:19:10):
Earlier today I saw one, I'm like whoa, And then
I'm like, wait, I can't was it a coach saying something.

Speaker 4 (01:19:15):
I don't know what it was, but I'm like, yeah, no,
that's well. Is it like.

Speaker 7 (01:19:22):
Some of them had the little watermark in the corner
or it's like whatever the AI company is. So you
can if you want to somebody of something, you would
you don't have that, correct, you wouldn't put that, or
or maybe you put one, make it a fake one.

Speaker 1 (01:19:34):
I mean, you can control a lot of people's minds
with people always have believed their eyes. Think about this
beginning of time, like, show me something, I will believe
what my eyes tell me.

Speaker 4 (01:19:42):
Now you can't believe what your eyes tell you. Think
about this.

Speaker 7 (01:19:45):
Tomorrow the aliens will be here. You should get like, uh,
I won't be with you, but uh, you know, Eddie
will be in a rubus and maybe he'll just write
it all out there. Oh he's never coming back. He's
never coming back. Right, Maybe get a maybe a little
Dave Hatter on some AI. Yeah, throwing a little Jerry
the j Man. Yeah, maybe he'll he'll be able to

(01:20:06):
share some things that you can ride this out, like
some substance that speaking of, we have our alien guest
from Oh God, what's move on?

Speaker 1 (01:20:16):
Right? It's like a local place where they track you
for you.

Speaker 4 (01:20:18):
Oh yeah, yea.

Speaker 1 (01:20:19):
If we had that guy on it, I should book
him for tomorrow. Get a good call, all right, I
