Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
KIM six forty. It's Later with mo Kelly. We are
live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. And it's Monday, so
let's go beyond the box score with our regular commentator,
Jackie Ray.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Jackie Ray, Good evening, How are you good evening?
Speaker 4 (00:20):
It's Monday. Good to be here.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Yes, rainy days and Mondays always get me down, but
it's good to talk to you and see you. I
know you've probably seen by now the viral video clip
of the women who were going at it fighting, punching,
boxing between the NC State and Syracuse game fans in
the stands. It's not new that there's a fight in
(00:44):
the stands. It is new that it's two women squaring off,
squaring off, you.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Know, they're sizing up each other.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
They square off and then they start throwing blows. One
gets knocked out and there are some thirty five people
around them with their phones taping it. They know that
they're going to end up on the internet. They know
that it's going to end up on what we call
world Star hip hop. And what have you am by missing?
Speaker 3 (01:06):
Something? Is this just what we are now as the people.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
I think so, And that was the first takeaway I
had from this. One of the things that stood out
for me. If you haven't seen it, go watch it
is when these two women are standing there facing each other.
Everyone had already cleared out. Everyone knew that a fight
was about to break out. No one tried to break
it up. Instead, everyone made sure that there was space
(01:30):
for the fight to happen so they could get a
good shot.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
On bleachers. Fights on bleachers, these are you know, look,
I haven't.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Been in a lot of fights in my life, but
none of them on the bleachers because you have unsteady
footing at all times.
Speaker 5 (01:45):
Right, And shout out to the woman who was smart
enough to get the high ground. She took the high ground. Fighters,
you always want to take the high ground. She had
her hands behind her back. They were just you know,
talking trash. And my thing is always this. We see
this more and more and more, that people are fighting more. Obviously,
I think one of the reasons why we're seeing it
more is because cameras are readily available more. Everyone has
(02:06):
their cell phones, and no one is inclined to de
escalate a situation. Everyone is the inclined to go viral
and record the situation, which speaks to the dumbing down
I guess you would say of the human condition a
little bit more than anything. But at the same time,
it was with the conversation that these two grown more
(02:27):
than grown.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
These were not children. These are very very.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Grown women, late thirties maybe forties, maybe.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
Forties, right, These two grown women were having There was
never the thought process of a This is a game
that has no matter what Trash was talking, you have
no stake in the game. There's not going to be
a single deposit made into your account at the end
of the game. You get no no takeaway from this game.
And it is again just a game. And so when
(02:55):
you see two adults who are who have an inability
to de escalate the situation, I think it speaks to
a really bad state we are in as human beings,
especially here in America.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
It's weird and I'm going to send it out on
my threats account right now. At mister mom'kelly. You have
one woman who has the high ground. She's wearing bell
bottomed jeans and the other woman is wearing leather pants
like They're both dressed like they're going to the club,
not a football game. Here's my point. You dressed up
to go to the game. Why would you then participate
(03:28):
in something which is completely opposite how.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
You dressed up to go to the game.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
When I saw this video, I'm thinking like, okay, it's
going to be two women in like.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Jerseys and shorts or something. No, it wasn't like that.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
There were two nicely dressed women who you would think
would be out of place at a football game, but
for some reason, the liquid courage felt the need to
start coming to blows.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
Yeah, my mom would call it. You know, these women
were dressed to catch. That's how they went to game.
They were dressed to catch. And there are plenty of
men standing around in that situation. And one thing that
stood out to me is there was a man who
ultimately tried to go and break it up. He had
a he was ear to ear koolaid smile the whole time.
He thought it was so funny. Again, this is not
a funny situation because the girl who got socked, now
(04:13):
she initiated it. She hit the woman that had the
high ground, She hit her hat off, so she did
initiate the fight, but.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
She got knocked out.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
Not only does she get knocked out from the initial blow,
she hit her head on the bleachers. I would never
put myself in a situation where a I'm a whole
adult woman who probably has a job that now I
got to go into work on today and everybody has
seen this video.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Never do that. That's if you keep your job.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Because you show up in the wrong video right working
the wrong job, you can be fired. And here's my thing,
not to overanalyze it, but I'm getting ready to overanalyze it.
Once you put your hands on someone, I don't care
if it's to touch their chest, to knock off their hat,
to touch their face. The moment you touch someone, the
(04:57):
fight has begun and you you know that whatever's coming
back your way is probably going to be worse. You
cannot touch someone and expect them not to haul off
and slug you. And that's exactly what happened here right right.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
It's like the lessons we learned in kindergarten, do right,
be nice, and can keep.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Your hair to yourself.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
We learned everything we needed to know on how to
operate a society in kindergarten. And I don't know what
is wrong, but This happens time and time again at
professional NFL games, basketball games, baseball games. People who have
absolutely no stake in what's going on on the field.
The people who do have a stake on the field
rarely behave like that, and when they do, it's kind
of funny to us, because nine times out of ten,
(05:37):
it either never escalates to that point or it's the
NFL and you got too much padding on for it
to really mean a difference anyway. But these are people
who get paid to do it, and so it's just
an interesting time to me that we are seeing this.
It used to be one off. It used to be
where we'd be like, oh, that was crazy. Now it's
a common occurrence, and that's what's concerning to me.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
I wonder, well, I actually I don't wonder, because I
know there are some people who go to the game
looking for a fight, looking for an escalation, and there
are those people who are like me, just want to
go to a game because I want to see the game.
I'm now less inclined to go to these large sporting events,
especially of a football type, because fights are always breaking out.
(06:18):
I mean, I love my rams, but I know if
I go to a rams game. Oh there's a good
chance for a fight that is going to break out
having nothing to do with me. I could just be
collateral damage.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
I'm inclined to be a house bunny, stay in the
house all the time because this happens everywhere I've seen it.
I've seen people get in arguments literally in the self
checkout line at Target, which I blame that on Target.
Y'all need to have more checkers there. But that's another
story for another day. But the self checkout, I've personally
witnessed this. People are constantly on edge, and I don't
know why that is.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Here's where it is.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I believe it's a combination of our politics or lack
of social interaction.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
We don't respect one another as people.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
We see other people at less than be it because
of political be it because of ethnic whatever. We don't
see a common humanity in one another. This was the
through line that I would think, And so you're a
little bit more eager to haul off on someone because
they are on the other team, be it political, be
it sports, or be it something else.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
That's what I think it is. Do you think there's
any truth to that?
Speaker 4 (07:21):
I definitely do.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
I think that people just operate inside their own little bubble,
their own little circles, and anything that is outside of
that is fair game. It used to be when I
was a kid, when you would go to the games.
I remember distinctly. This is before I came to Glory
and abandoned my Dallas Cowboy fandom. But I remember when
I would go to the games in Denver in all
(07:43):
of my Cowboy jerseys, and then there'd be all these
Bronco fans that were talking trast to me. Cowboy fans
would come out of nowhere to my aid, like, hey, don't.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
Mess with her like that. It used to be this.
Speaker 5 (07:52):
You could go to a sporting event to find camaraderie,
to find new friends, and now you have these lifeline bonds.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
Now it's every man for themselves. I don't like it.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
When we come back, I'm gonna keep it.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
In the realm of football, you probably know about the
Miami Dolphins quarterback to a tongue of aloa who's had
more than a few concussions, and there was a discussion
when he had his most recent whether he should retire.
And I always lead that to the player to decide,
But it seems like he may come back and play
this season. I got a problem with that, and I
(08:24):
got a problem with the Dolphins organization. We'll talk about
it next I Am six forty. We're live everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
It's Later with Mo Kelly.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
We're still talking football and we're live everywhere on the
iHeartRadio app. Dolphins quarterback to a Tongue of Aloa. He's
had a number of concussions. And I say a number
because we'll never know exactly how many, right, because we
just know that he's been tested.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
For a few.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
He's had a number of incidents on the field with
concussions and concussion protocol. He most recently had one in
Week two of the season, and there was a discussion
whether he to a Tongue of Vailoa should retire.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
At that point.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
We know about CTE, we know about concussions, how it
can contribute to brain degeneration later on in life. To
a tune of Biloa hasn't said anything about coming back.
But here's my issue. Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel
says that he expects the quarterback to play football this season.
(09:31):
Am I reading too much into that? Or is the
Dolphins organization slash head coach out of line.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
I think that's a great question, because ultimately what is happening,
in my opinion, is the head coach is in communication
with Tua. That is why he is saying he's expecting
him back. And so this is one of those situations.
Speaker 4 (09:51):
Where I'm with you.
Speaker 5 (09:52):
I blame the Miami Dolphins organization, I blame the head coach,
and I also blame his agent because sometimes anyone who
watched football for a length of time, you know that
these players would prefer to be dragged off the field
literally take their last breath on the field. So you
really do have to have people who care about the
(10:13):
players and their well being in place to protect them
from themselves. And there is no way that you are
paralyzed on the field twice, which every doctor has told
everyone knows more about TTE now because of Tua, because
we've seen him literally lose consciousness and a paralytic state,
and doctors have said this is a sign of traumatic,
(10:35):
not slight traumatic brain injury, and he has had that
two times and he's had to be out for a
significant amount of time two times, and so those like
you said, those are the two times that we know
about the many concussions. We already know that ninety nine
percent of football players who die once they're tested, ninety
nine percent of them have CTEs.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
So that means they've been concussed times that we.
Speaker 5 (10:57):
Haven't even they haven't gone through concussion protocol. So when
you add those two major times to the ones that
we don't know, now you're talking about quality of life
when you get older.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
And I've seen this.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
I know several football players they hit thirty five, they
might as well be eighty five, yes, because of the
condition of their body. And I just don't think that
it's right for someone in a position of authority to
put the well being of the team over the well
being of the individual.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
The reason why I specifically question who is the guiding
force and all this is because if you follow the story,
you know that Tua Tungabailoa, after suffering all these concussions
in the twenty two season, said in the twenty twenty
three season he considered stepping away from football for a
time due to the impact of the head injuries.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
So when he has a major one this season.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Why would he then do an about face and come
back four or five weeks after the fact. That doesn't
make any sense to me. Now, I understand he's in
his mid twenties. He probably has other people who are
financially on him.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
I got that. I understand that pressure.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I just don't understand or agree with the organization being
louder than the quarterback himself right about now. Right.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
And that's the other thing we've talked about several times
on this show is a lot of these players, unfortunately
they came from nothing, so now they get a little
bit of money and that's the end all be all.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
They're not looking down the line.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
I think the NFL, actually every professional league should do
a lot better in offering financial literacy to players, because again,
your time.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
Seling dion is how old now.
Speaker 5 (12:35):
Before she just had to announce the people that she
can't really sing anymore. Right, that's that's not the NFL.
Your window is very very short to make a bunch
of money.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Let me dovetail that point. People may not know.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
In football, contracts for the most part, are not guaranteed money.
So when tunga Iiloa agreed to a four year contract
extension in the off season worth two hundred and twelve
point four miss. Not all that money is guaranteed. I'll
say maybe half of it is guaranteed, meaning the team
can cut him and he's not gonna get most of
(13:08):
that money. So there is an incentive to play even
while you're hurt. As you were saying, JACKI ray, because
it's different in the NBA. Once you sign that contract,
you can fall off the face of the earth, and
unless you void the contract or violate the contract, you're
still going to get that money.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Not the case in football.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
And I've talked to again a lot of football players
about this, and I have asked him, what is your
thought process when you are doing these cbas.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
You know, when you're doing.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
These collective bargaining agreements, so.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
They now bargaining agreements. What are you thinking?
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Because there's no way somebody who runs up great cardio.
I love basketball, but it's not nearly as physical as
the NFL.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
There's no way.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
Guys who guess when they have injuries, they sometimes are
really bad, but nine times out of ten they can
come back, and ninety nine percent of time it doesn't
really mean that they're going to be almost wheelchair bound
at forty.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
It's not the same thing.
Speaker 5 (14:01):
So why aren't you using your voices and saying no,
If I'm gonna have this nine hundred pound dude running
full speed at me, I need a guaranteed contract. That's
a whole nother story for another day. But I am
disappointed in every single individual, from if to a comes back,
everyone around to from his family, friends, agent, coaches. I
(14:21):
am disappointed in everybody because one of the things that
I love about my circle of friends is I won't
have that. I'm I can't make that big a bonehead
decision without my friends being very, very loud about and
it's gonna make me think twice because I know that
these people love me and they care about me, and
they want the best for me. Money's not the end
all be all. I would rather have a little bit
(14:42):
of money and have great quality of life and can
run around and play with my goddaughter than have a
bunch of money and have to watch everybody else play
with her from a distance.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
But it's very complicated.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Without getting two in the weeds, I don't know if
Tungo Iiloa has played long enough to qualify for the
NFL pension.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
He's still in the early part of his career.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
And also I don't know what type of benefits if
they get anything relative to that collected of bargaining agreement
when it comes to long term healthcare, because I know
the players have been fighting for that, but I don't
know where they are in that fight. And Tungka Bailoa
may be okay air quotes today, but like to your point,
when he turns forty five and he sees a change
(15:21):
in his brain chemistry, you know what type of healthcare
would be available for him later on. Those are the
things which I think are not discussed enough, and that's
what scares the Bejesus out of me. But I also
know it plays into the equation. While he's considering coming back.
Speaker 5 (15:36):
Well, he can't be considering coming back for the health
insurance because the NFL has some of the worst health insurance.
After they retire on the planet, you'd be better going
to work it in and out and getting in health
insurance from them. And I'm not even being funny, but again,
I think sometimes this is what spawns from a capitalistic society.
Money rules everything, so but I just don't that's not
(15:58):
how my life operates. I would rather be happy and
healthy and be able to live the life that I
want to live than to have a bunch of money
so I can pay people to take care of me.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
This sounds like a horrible story ending waiting to happen.
Jackie Ray, thanks so much for coming on me, unfortunately,
which we had better topics to discuss with a little
bit more of an uplifting feel. But it's not always
like that in the world, is it.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
I don't think I've had a landline phone this century.
I think it was maybe in the late nineteen nineties
that I finally got rid of my landline phone. One
of the best decisions I've ever made. I know people
tell me all the time, well, in the event of emergency,
you want a landline phone, it goes straight to the
I get all that I'm saying. I have not needed
(16:54):
a landline phone since the nineteen hundreds as they call
them now, and I have not regretted it. I've hated
AT and T, SBC whatever they were back then, since
that day because they were trying to sell me a
landline phone with internet, and I just wanted the Internet.
I didn't want the landline phone. So I said, forget
(17:14):
you guys. I'm moving on with my mobile phone. Back
then we call it a cell phone, and then you know,
the rest, as they say, is history. But there are
some people who still have a landline phone. My mother
not only has one, she has two. I have no
idea why she has two, but she has two landline
phones and a cell phone. And if you were to
(17:35):
ask me, you didn't, But I want to tell you anyway,
if you were to ask me, I suspect that most
people who have a landline phone are probably on the
older side. Probably. I don't know if anyone under the
age of thirty is endeavoring to get a landline phone.
By and large, I'm sure they're exceptions. But did you
(17:57):
know the CDC, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,
they've been studying for the past two decades the traits
of Americans who hold on to their landlines and contrasting
them to people like me who cut the cord and
rely exclusively on cell phones. You may be interested to
(18:17):
see where you are on this spectrum. Let's see if
this is you, Mark Ronnert, you look like you have
a landline, Is that right?
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
Landline holdouts are more likely than wireless converts to own
a home. They are more likely to live in the northeast.
They are less likely to smoke, and less fond of
ben's drinking.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Landline owners are more.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Likely to wear seat belts, to exercise, and to carry
health insurance. To me, that just sounds like they're trying
to say landline owners are all about safety.
Speaker 6 (18:52):
I think landline owners are more likely to sleep with
their teeth in a jar next to them.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
Right. Here's some statistics.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Fewer than one quarter of Americans still have landline phones.
Put another way, more than three quarters live in homes
without land lines. Seventy six percent of adults and eighty
seven percent of children as of twenty twenty three live
in homes without land lines, and my home would be
(19:24):
one of them.
Speaker 6 (19:25):
This is why you have to regard any poll with
extreme skepticism, because the people who respond to polls are
generally people who pick up their phones and land lines.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Yeah, and that was part of the polling era going
back to the twenty sixteen election, where they were basing
data off of people who responded to polls who had
land lines, because as of that point, they had not
changed the polling structure to include non land lines.
Speaker 6 (19:52):
Yeah, huge grain of salt, because you and I if
we see somebody calling and we don't recognize the number,
no way are we answering it, let alone taking a poll.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
I don't have time to who wants to do that?
Older people because they want the attention. I'm being serious,
they just want to talk to someone.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
I agree.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
By contrast, twenty years ago, only five percent of Americans
were wireless. Five percent, So basically at the turn of
the century thereabouts, consumers began to ditch landlines. Into two thousands.
As consumers canceled home telephone service, researchers worried that their
(20:28):
surveys might miss people who had given up landlines. Yes,
that's exactly what we're talking about, because we're not answering
the phone for people we don't know. I remember when
caller ID was invented. That was fantastic. Oh yeah, it
took out a lot of the guest work with who's calling.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
So I'm not answering that call.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
No, I'm not picking up And then you wait for
your answer machine to pick up. You listen if they
leave a message and you get to hear the message.
Gone er those days. If you call on my cell phone, smartphone,
what ever want to call it? If you're not in
my contact, give it up.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
My favorite thing on the smartphones is that when people
leave a message, now you can just see automatically a
text version of the message. Oh, you don't even have
to hear their voice if you don't want to.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
I love that, and I've no I've said it before,
but I have to remind people if you leave a
message with something like call me back.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
No.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
If you're going to leave a message, even if it's
a text, you better tell me why you're calling. I'm
not going to call you and waste time out of
my day to find out why you wanted me to
call you.
Speaker 6 (21:37):
Yeah, unless we're on like a Navy Seal Special Ops team,
you don't just get to call and say call me back.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
No, nothing's that important that, not even my own family.
I tell that to my family members. I have someone
in my family who I'm not going to name, brother
in law, who always will just say hey, call me, no,
state your business business, and then that can place you
in line of importance. Okay, in my need an emergency,
it might be something which is you know I can
(22:03):
call you tomorrow. It might be something where I can
just text you information. For example, someone may say call
me back. All he want is the number for so
and so. Well, I could have just texted that to
you and been on about my way. Remember the old
days when people used to just call each other up
to talk. My mom still does that, just call me
to talk. I want you to thank me for never
once doing that to you ever. No, no, but but
(22:25):
we will text late at night black we're lovers.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
We do.
Speaker 6 (22:28):
But I never just call for no other reason than
to talk. I had, like a couple remaining friends one's
dead now who would just call to talk for a
couple hours, with no agenda, just calling to talk. That
is such an alien thing now I don't want to
do that.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
It is, and maybe I'm in the wrong business because
I need to be more social in this line of work.
But there are a lot of times, like, for example,
if I'm not on the air, I have no desire
to talk physically at all exactly, and I don't.
Speaker 6 (22:56):
Want to talk to anyone. We're not on all the time.
This is when we're on.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
And it's only a fraction of the day overall.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
But when you talk three hours, you don't want to
talk to other you know, twenty go ahead, stuff out,
And just so the audience knows, the whole texting at
night thing is very true because there's days where I
wake up and it's like twelve or fourteen texts. I'm like,
who text me this much? And then I say, it's
a back and forth between Mark and Mo. But we
have different sleep schedules. Yeah, and I may text Mark
(23:31):
in eleven thirty ish or something. He's still not even
off yet.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
No, I'm on the graveyard shift.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
But he may not see it until he wakes up,
goes home, wakes up the next day, and he'll respond
because he gets into other stuff.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
Well, you don't need to make it sound like that. No,
I'm just jealous, that's all you just you know, you
just put what other stuff. But my point is we
live in a text world. I don't need to hear
your voice to communicate information. And I think vice versa
is true.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
So you know, when you look at the going back
to the story talking about how people have cut the
cord and how according to their findings, and I'm just paraphrasing.
The people who still have landlines are responsible adults. They
wear their seatbelts, they have health insurance, things of that stuff.
You know that may or may not be true, but
that's not consistent with my life. I cut the cord
(24:28):
because it was better for me personally and professionally. I
was spending and it wasn't economical. I was spending a
good sixty seventy dollars a month unnecessarily for a phone
that I never used because no one ever called me
on my landline.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Now you don't know two phones.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
I'll tell you one thing that I miss, and I'm
too old to be doing this now, but one thing
that I miss about landlines and those old clunky phones
with the received the handset. I miss destroying them in
a fit of anger. And I can't be the only
one who's ever done.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Oh, I've wrecked a bunch of phones being mad at
so and so and so and so. Oh. And this
is what I do miss about the old landline phones.
And Mark, I know you know this. There was something
super satisfying about hanging the f up on someone and
having the field that the anger and pressure of the
clank of the phone going down.
Speaker 6 (25:21):
I'm so glad you said that, because it was very
satisfying to slam a phone receiver down into the cradle.
That's just like the perfect end to an argument. It's
not the same when you just push a button and
go what's with that? And the person may not realize
for another I don't know, thirty.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Seconds or so very unsatisfying that if that could ever
bring back the landline, it would be just for that,
so I can hang up on someone real, real nastily.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Yeah, that's the og rage. Quit good times.
Speaker 2 (25:51):

Oh yeah yeah, like half the station is going to
produce her Cana's wedding up north. We'll post pictures. Maybe

Hey, No, you're jealous.
Speaker 2 (31:08):

someone's tell her to listen to this. Sometimes I just
want to see. Look, Mark, I can't speak for the
long suffering one, but invariably some of my wife's friends
will listen, and they always run back to her to.

Say, didn't you get what he said?
Speaker 5 (31:34):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (31:34):
Yeah, the long suffering one doesn't listen to you kidding me?
But does she have does she get feedback from other people?
Speaker 3 (31:40):

Speaker 6 (31:40):
No, I've managed to completely isolate her from all of
her friends, like John Derek.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
That is a that is a Yet, how did you
do that like that? Yes, John Derek, I was a
nice pole. It's a little bit of a deep I
don't know, but there's a lot of truth in what
you say when you talk about John Derek. If you
know the story of John and bo.
Speaker 6 (31:58):
Well, I mean you also reached the age where your
friends all you know, get married and have families and
have so many things to do family wise, that they
just aren't available anymore. That's just a natural part of
growing up, unless you're some Peter Pan weirdo like I am.

You said it.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Sagittarius, mutable energy fills the sky on Monday the fourteenth

Speaker 1 (34:45):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
KIM six forty. It's Later with mo Kelly. We are
live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. And it's Monday, so
let's go beyond the box score with our regular commentator,
Jackie Ray.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Jackie Ray, Good evening, How are you good evening?
Speaker 4 (00:20):
It's Monday. Good to be here.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Yes, rainy days and Mondays always get me down, but
it's good to talk to you and see you. I
know you've probably seen by now the viral video clip
of the women who were going at it fighting, punching,
boxing between the NC State and Syracuse game fans in
the stands. It's not new that there's a fight in
(00:44):
the stands. It is new that it's two women squaring off,
squaring off, you.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Know, they're sizing up each other.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
They square off and then they start throwing blows. One
gets knocked out and there are some thirty five people
around them with their phones taping it. They know that
they're going to end up on the internet. They know
that it's going to end up on what we call
world Star hip hop. And what have you am by missing?
Speaker 3 (01:06):
Something? Is this just what we are now as the people.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
I think so, And that was the first takeaway I
had from this. One of the things that stood out
for me. If you haven't seen it, go watch it
is when these two women are standing there facing each other.
Everyone had already cleared out. Everyone knew that a fight
was about to break out. No one tried to break
it up. Instead, everyone made sure that there was space
(01:30):
for the fight to happen so they could get a
good shot.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
On bleachers. Fights on bleachers, these are you know, look,
I haven't.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Been in a lot of fights in my life, but
none of them on the bleachers because you have unsteady
footing at all times.
Speaker 5 (01:45):
Right, And shout out to the woman who was smart
enough to get the high ground. She took the high ground. Fighters,
you always want to take the high ground. She had
her hands behind her back. They were just you know,
talking trash. And my thing is always this. We see
this more and more and more, that people are fighting more. Obviously,
I think one of the reasons why we're seeing it
more is because cameras are readily available more. Everyone has
(02:06):
their cell phones, and no one is inclined to de
escalate a situation. Everyone is the inclined to go viral
and record the situation, which speaks to the dumbing down
I guess you would say of the human condition a
little bit more than anything. But at the same time,
it was with the conversation that these two grown more
(02:27):
than grown.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
These were not children. These are very very.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Grown women, late thirties maybe forties, maybe.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
Forties, right, These two grown women were having There was
never the thought process of a This is a game
that has no matter what Trash was talking, you have
no stake in the game. There's not going to be
a single deposit made into your account at the end
of the game. You get no no takeaway from this game.
And it is again just a game. And so when
(02:55):
you see two adults who are who have an inability
to de escalate the situation, I think it speaks to
a really bad state we are in as human beings,
especially here in America.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
It's weird and I'm going to send it out on
my threats account right now. At mister mom'kelly. You have
one woman who has the high ground. She's wearing bell
bottomed jeans and the other woman is wearing leather pants
like They're both dressed like they're going to the club,
not a football game. Here's my point. You dressed up
to go to the game. Why would you then participate
(03:28):
in something which is completely opposite how.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
You dressed up to go to the game.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
When I saw this video, I'm thinking like, okay, it's
going to be two women in like.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Jerseys and shorts or something. No, it wasn't like that.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
There were two nicely dressed women who you would think
would be out of place at a football game, but
for some reason, the liquid courage felt the need to
start coming to blows.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
Yeah, my mom would call it. You know, these women
were dressed to catch. That's how they went to game.
They were dressed to catch. And there are plenty of
men standing around in that situation. And one thing that
stood out to me is there was a man who
ultimately tried to go and break it up. He had
a he was ear to ear koolaid smile the whole time.
He thought it was so funny. Again, this is not
a funny situation because the girl who got socked, now
(04:13):
she initiated it. She hit the woman that had the
high ground, She hit her hat off, so she did
initiate the fight, but.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
She got knocked out.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
Not only does she get knocked out from the initial blow,
she hit her head on the bleachers. I would never
put myself in a situation where a I'm a whole
adult woman who probably has a job that now I
got to go into work on today and everybody has
seen this video.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Never do that. That's if you keep your job.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Because you show up in the wrong video right working
the wrong job, you can be fired. And here's my thing,
not to overanalyze it, but I'm getting ready to overanalyze it.
Once you put your hands on someone, I don't care
if it's to touch their chest, to knock off their hat,
to touch their face. The moment you touch someone, the
(04:57):
fight has begun and you you know that whatever's coming
back your way is probably going to be worse. You
cannot touch someone and expect them not to haul off
and slug you. And that's exactly what happened here right right.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
It's like the lessons we learned in kindergarten, do right,
be nice, and can keep.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Your hair to yourself.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
We learned everything we needed to know on how to
operate a society in kindergarten. And I don't know what
is wrong, but This happens time and time again at
professional NFL games, basketball games, baseball games. People who have
absolutely no stake in what's going on on the field.
The people who do have a stake on the field
rarely behave like that, and when they do, it's kind
of funny to us, because nine times out of ten,
(05:37):
it either never escalates to that point or it's the
NFL and you got too much padding on for it
to really mean a difference anyway. But these are people
who get paid to do it, and so it's just
an interesting time to me that we are seeing this.
It used to be one off. It used to be
where we'd be like, oh, that was crazy. Now it's
a common occurrence, and that's what's concerning to me.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
I wonder, well, I actually I don't wonder, because I
know there are some people who go to the game
looking for a fight, looking for an escalation, and there
are those people who are like me, just want to
go to a game because I want to see the game.
I'm now less inclined to go to these large sporting events,
especially of a football type, because fights are always breaking out.
(06:18):
I mean, I love my rams, but I know if
I go to a rams game. Oh there's a good
chance for a fight that is going to break out
having nothing to do with me. I could just be
collateral damage.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
I'm inclined to be a house bunny, stay in the
house all the time because this happens everywhere I've seen it.
I've seen people get in arguments literally in the self
checkout line at Target, which I blame that on Target.
Y'all need to have more checkers there. But that's another
story for another day. But the self checkout, I've personally
witnessed this. People are constantly on edge, and I don't
know why that is.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Here's where it is.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I believe it's a combination of our politics or lack
of social interaction.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
We don't respect one another as people.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
We see other people at less than be it because
of political be it because of ethnic whatever. We don't
see a common humanity in one another. This was the
through line that I would think, And so you're a
little bit more eager to haul off on someone because
they are on the other team, be it political, be
it sports, or be it something else.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
That's what I think it is. Do you think there's
any truth to that?
Speaker 4 (07:21):
I definitely do.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
I think that people just operate inside their own little bubble,
their own little circles, and anything that is outside of
that is fair game. It used to be when I
was a kid, when you would go to the games.
I remember distinctly. This is before I came to Glory
and abandoned my Dallas Cowboy fandom. But I remember when
I would go to the games in Denver in all
(07:43):
of my Cowboy jerseys, and then there'd be all these
Bronco fans that were talking trast to me. Cowboy fans
would come out of nowhere to my aid, like, hey, don't.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
Mess with her like that. It used to be this.
Speaker 5 (07:52):
You could go to a sporting event to find camaraderie,
to find new friends, and now you have these lifeline bonds.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
Now it's every man for themselves. I don't like it.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
When we come back, I'm gonna keep it.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
In the realm of football, you probably know about the
Miami Dolphins quarterback to a tongue of aloa who's had
more than a few concussions, and there was a discussion
when he had his most recent whether he should retire.
And I always lead that to the player to decide,
But it seems like he may come back and play
this season. I got a problem with that, and I
(08:24):
got a problem with the Dolphins organization. We'll talk about
it next I Am six forty. We're live everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
It's Later with Mo Kelly.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
We're still talking football and we're live everywhere on the
iHeartRadio app. Dolphins quarterback to a Tongue of Aloa. He's
had a number of concussions. And I say a number
because we'll never know exactly how many, right, because we
just know that he's been tested.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
For a few.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
He's had a number of incidents on the field with
concussions and concussion protocol. He most recently had one in
Week two of the season, and there was a discussion
whether he to a Tongue of Vailoa should retire.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
At that point.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
We know about CTE, we know about concussions, how it
can contribute to brain degeneration later on in life. To
a tune of Biloa hasn't said anything about coming back.
But here's my issue. Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel
says that he expects the quarterback to play football this season.
(09:31):
Am I reading too much into that? Or is the
Dolphins organization slash head coach out of line.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
I think that's a great question, because ultimately what is happening,
in my opinion, is the head coach is in communication
with Tua. That is why he is saying he's expecting
him back. And so this is one of those situations.
Speaker 4 (09:51):
Where I'm with you.
Speaker 5 (09:52):
I blame the Miami Dolphins organization, I blame the head coach,
and I also blame his agent because sometimes anyone who
watched football for a length of time, you know that
these players would prefer to be dragged off the field
literally take their last breath on the field. So you
really do have to have people who care about the
(10:13):
players and their well being in place to protect them
from themselves. And there is no way that you are
paralyzed on the field twice, which every doctor has told
everyone knows more about TTE now because of Tua, because
we've seen him literally lose consciousness and a paralytic state,
and doctors have said this is a sign of traumatic,
(10:35):
not slight traumatic brain injury, and he has had that
two times and he's had to be out for a
significant amount of time two times, and so those like
you said, those are the two times that we know
about the many concussions. We already know that ninety nine
percent of football players who die once they're tested, ninety
nine percent of them have CTEs.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
So that means they've been concussed times that we.
Speaker 5 (10:57):
Haven't even they haven't gone through concussion protocol. So when
you add those two major times to the ones that
we don't know, now you're talking about quality of life
when you get older.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
And I've seen this.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
I know several football players they hit thirty five, they
might as well be eighty five, yes, because of the
condition of their body. And I just don't think that
it's right for someone in a position of authority to
put the well being of the team over the well
being of the individual.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
The reason why I specifically question who is the guiding
force and all this is because if you follow the story,
you know that Tua Tungabailoa, after suffering all these concussions
in the twenty two season, said in the twenty twenty
three season he considered stepping away from football for a
time due to the impact of the head injuries.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
So when he has a major one this season.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Why would he then do an about face and come
back four or five weeks after the fact. That doesn't
make any sense to me. Now, I understand he's in
his mid twenties. He probably has other people who are
financially on him.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
I got that. I understand that pressure.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I just don't understand or agree with the organization being
louder than the quarterback himself right about now. Right.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
And that's the other thing we've talked about several times
on this show is a lot of these players, unfortunately
they came from nothing, so now they get a little
bit of money and that's the end all be all.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
They're not looking down the line.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
I think the NFL, actually every professional league should do
a lot better in offering financial literacy to players, because again,
your time.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
Seling dion is how old now.
Speaker 5 (12:35):
Before she just had to announce the people that she
can't really sing anymore. Right, that's that's not the NFL.
Your window is very very short to make a bunch
of money.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Let me dovetail that point. People may not know.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
In football, contracts for the most part, are not guaranteed money.
So when tunga Iiloa agreed to a four year contract
extension in the off season worth two hundred and twelve
point four miss. Not all that money is guaranteed. I'll
say maybe half of it is guaranteed, meaning the team
can cut him and he's not gonna get most of
(13:08):
that money. So there is an incentive to play even
while you're hurt. As you were saying, JACKI ray, because
it's different in the NBA. Once you sign that contract,
you can fall off the face of the earth, and
unless you void the contract or violate the contract, you're
still going to get that money.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Not the case in football.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
And I've talked to again a lot of football players
about this, and I have asked him, what is your
thought process when you are doing these cbas.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
You know, when you're doing.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
These collective bargaining agreements, so.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
They now bargaining agreements. What are you thinking?
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Because there's no way somebody who runs up great cardio.
I love basketball, but it's not nearly as physical as
the NFL.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
There's no way.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
Guys who guess when they have injuries, they sometimes are
really bad, but nine times out of ten they can
come back, and ninety nine percent of time it doesn't
really mean that they're going to be almost wheelchair bound
at forty.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
It's not the same thing.
Speaker 5 (14:01):
So why aren't you using your voices and saying no,
If I'm gonna have this nine hundred pound dude running
full speed at me, I need a guaranteed contract. That's
a whole nother story for another day. But I am
disappointed in every single individual, from if to a comes back,
everyone around to from his family, friends, agent, coaches. I
(14:21):
am disappointed in everybody because one of the things that
I love about my circle of friends is I won't
have that. I'm I can't make that big a bonehead
decision without my friends being very, very loud about and
it's gonna make me think twice because I know that
these people love me and they care about me, and
they want the best for me. Money's not the end
all be all. I would rather have a little bit
(14:42):
of money and have great quality of life and can
run around and play with my goddaughter than have a
bunch of money and have to watch everybody else play
with her from a distance.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
But it's very complicated.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Without getting two in the weeds, I don't know if
Tungo Iiloa has played long enough to qualify for the
NFL pension.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
He's still in the early part of his career.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
And also I don't know what type of benefits if
they get anything relative to that collected of bargaining agreement
when it comes to long term healthcare, because I know
the players have been fighting for that, but I don't
know where they are in that fight. And Tungka Bailoa
may be okay air quotes today, but like to your point,
when he turns forty five and he sees a change
(15:21):
in his brain chemistry, you know what type of healthcare
would be available for him later on. Those are the
things which I think are not discussed enough, and that's
what scares the Bejesus out of me. But I also
know it plays into the equation. While he's considering coming back.
Speaker 5 (15:36):
Well, he can't be considering coming back for the health
insurance because the NFL has some of the worst health insurance.
After they retire on the planet, you'd be better going
to work it in and out and getting in health
insurance from them. And I'm not even being funny, but again,
I think sometimes this is what spawns from a capitalistic society.
Money rules everything, so but I just don't that's not
(15:58):
how my life operates. I would rather be happy and
healthy and be able to live the life that I
want to live than to have a bunch of money
so I can pay people to take care of me.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
This sounds like a horrible story ending waiting to happen.
Jackie Ray, thanks so much for coming on me, unfortunately,
which we had better topics to discuss with a little
bit more of an uplifting feel. But it's not always
like that in the world, is it.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
I don't think I've had a landline phone this century.
I think it was maybe in the late nineteen nineties
that I finally got rid of my landline phone. One
of the best decisions I've ever made. I know people
tell me all the time, well, in the event of emergency,
you want a landline phone, it goes straight to the
I get all that I'm saying. I have not needed
(16:54):
a landline phone since the nineteen hundreds as they call
them now, and I have not regretted it. I've hated
AT and T, SBC whatever they were back then, since
that day because they were trying to sell me a
landline phone with internet, and I just wanted the Internet.
I didn't want the landline phone. So I said, forget
(17:14):
you guys. I'm moving on with my mobile phone. Back
then we call it a cell phone, and then you know,
the rest, as they say, is history. But there are
some people who still have a landline phone. My mother
not only has one, she has two. I have no
idea why she has two, but she has two landline
phones and a cell phone. And if you were to
(17:35):
ask me, you didn't, But I want to tell you anyway,
if you were to ask me, I suspect that most
people who have a landline phone are probably on the
older side. Probably. I don't know if anyone under the
age of thirty is endeavoring to get a landline phone.
By and large, I'm sure they're exceptions. But did you
(17:57):
know the CDC, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,
they've been studying for the past two decades the traits
of Americans who hold on to their landlines and contrasting
them to people like me who cut the cord and
rely exclusively on cell phones. You may be interested to
(18:17):
see where you are on this spectrum. Let's see if
this is you, Mark Ronnert, you look like you have
a landline, Is that right?
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
Landline holdouts are more likely than wireless converts to own
a home. They are more likely to live in the northeast.
They are less likely to smoke, and less fond of
ben's drinking.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Landline owners are more.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Likely to wear seat belts, to exercise, and to carry
health insurance. To me, that just sounds like they're trying
to say landline owners are all about safety.
Speaker 6 (18:52):
I think landline owners are more likely to sleep with
their teeth in a jar next to them.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
Right. Here's some statistics.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Fewer than one quarter of Americans still have landline phones.
Put another way, more than three quarters live in homes
without land lines. Seventy six percent of adults and eighty
seven percent of children as of twenty twenty three live
in homes without land lines, and my home would be
(19:24):
one of them.
Speaker 6 (19:25):
This is why you have to regard any poll with
extreme skepticism, because the people who respond to polls are
generally people who pick up their phones and land lines.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Yeah, and that was part of the polling era going
back to the twenty sixteen election, where they were basing
data off of people who responded to polls who had
land lines, because as of that point, they had not
changed the polling structure to include non land lines.
Speaker 6 (19:52):
Yeah, huge grain of salt, because you and I if
we see somebody calling and we don't recognize the number,
no way are we answering it, let alone taking a poll.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
I don't have time to who wants to do that?
Older people because they want the attention. I'm being serious,
they just want to talk to someone.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
I agree.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
By contrast, twenty years ago, only five percent of Americans
were wireless. Five percent, So basically at the turn of
the century thereabouts, consumers began to ditch landlines. Into two thousands.
As consumers canceled home telephone service, researchers worried that their
(20:28):
surveys might miss people who had given up landlines. Yes,
that's exactly what we're talking about, because we're not answering
the phone for people we don't know. I remember when
caller ID was invented. That was fantastic. Oh yeah, it
took out a lot of the guest work with who's calling.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
So I'm not answering that call.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
No, I'm not picking up And then you wait for
your answer machine to pick up. You listen if they
leave a message and you get to hear the message.
Gone er those days. If you call on my cell phone, smartphone,
what ever want to call it? If you're not in
my contact, give it up.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
My favorite thing on the smartphones is that when people
leave a message, now you can just see automatically a
text version of the message. Oh, you don't even have
to hear their voice if you don't want to.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
I love that, and I've no I've said it before,
but I have to remind people if you leave a
message with something like call me back.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
No.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
If you're going to leave a message, even if it's
a text, you better tell me why you're calling. I'm
not going to call you and waste time out of
my day to find out why you wanted me to
call you.
Speaker 6 (21:37):
Yeah, unless we're on like a Navy Seal Special Ops team,
you don't just get to call and say call me back.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
No, nothing's that important that, not even my own family.
I tell that to my family members. I have someone
in my family who I'm not going to name, brother
in law, who always will just say hey, call me, no,
state your business business, and then that can place you
in line of importance. Okay, in my need an emergency,
it might be something which is you know I can
(22:03):
call you tomorrow. It might be something where I can
just text you information. For example, someone may say call
me back. All he want is the number for so
and so. Well, I could have just texted that to
you and been on about my way. Remember the old
days when people used to just call each other up
to talk. My mom still does that, just call me
to talk. I want you to thank me for never
once doing that to you ever. No, no, but but
(22:25):
we will text late at night black we're lovers.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
We do.
Speaker 6 (22:28):
But I never just call for no other reason than
to talk. I had, like a couple remaining friends one's
dead now who would just call to talk for a
couple hours, with no agenda, just calling to talk. That
is such an alien thing now I don't want to
do that.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
It is, and maybe I'm in the wrong business because
I need to be more social in this line of work.
But there are a lot of times, like, for example,
if I'm not on the air, I have no desire
to talk physically at all exactly, and I don't.
Speaker 6 (22:56):
Want to talk to anyone. We're not on all the time.
This is when we're on.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
And it's only a fraction of the day overall.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
But when you talk three hours, you don't want to
talk to other you know, twenty go ahead, stuff out,
And just so the audience knows, the whole texting at
night thing is very true because there's days where I
wake up and it's like twelve or fourteen texts. I'm like,
who text me this much? And then I say, it's
a back and forth between Mark and Mo. But we
have different sleep schedules. Yeah, and I may text Mark
(23:31):
in eleven thirty ish or something. He's still not even
off yet.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
No, I'm on the graveyard shift.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
But he may not see it until he wakes up,
goes home, wakes up the next day, and he'll respond
because he gets into other stuff.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
Well, you don't need to make it sound like that. No,
I'm just jealous, that's all you just you know, you
just put what other stuff. But my point is we
live in a text world. I don't need to hear
your voice to communicate information. And I think vice versa
is true.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
So you know, when you look at the going back
to the story talking about how people have cut the
cord and how according to their findings, and I'm just paraphrasing.
The people who still have landlines are responsible adults. They
wear their seatbelts, they have health insurance, things of that stuff.
You know that may or may not be true, but
that's not consistent with my life. I cut the cord
(24:28):
because it was better for me personally and professionally. I
was spending and it wasn't economical. I was spending a
good sixty seventy dollars a month unnecessarily for a phone
that I never used because no one ever called me
on my landline.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Now you don't know two phones.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
I'll tell you one thing that I miss, and I'm
too old to be doing this now, but one thing
that I miss about landlines and those old clunky phones
with the received the handset. I miss destroying them in
a fit of anger. And I can't be the only
one who's ever done.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Oh, I've wrecked a bunch of phones being mad at
so and so and so and so. Oh. And this
is what I do miss about the old landline phones.
And Mark, I know you know this. There was something
super satisfying about hanging the f up on someone and
having the field that the anger and pressure of the
clank of the phone going down.
Speaker 6 (25:21):
I'm so glad you said that, because it was very
satisfying to slam a phone receiver down into the cradle.
That's just like the perfect end to an argument. It's
not the same when you just push a button and
go what's with that? And the person may not realize
for another I don't know, thirty.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Seconds or so very unsatisfying that if that could ever
bring back the landline, it would be just for that,
so I can hang up on someone real, real nastily.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Yeah, that's the og rage. Quit good times.
Speaker 2 (25:51):

Hey, No, you're jealous.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
No, I'm just saying I don't want to be put
in a situation where I might score. Understandable, he knows
someone's tell her to listen to this. Sometimes I just
want to see. Look, Mark, I can't speak for the
long suffering one, but invariably some of my wife's friends
will listen, and they always run back to her to.

Oh?
Speaker 2 (31:34):

But does she have does she get feedback from other people?
Speaker 3 (31:40):
No?
Speaker 6 (31:40):
No, I've managed to completely isolate her from all of
her friends, like John Derek.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
That is a that is a Yet, how did you
do that like that? Yes, John Derek, I was a
nice pole. It's a little bit of a deep I
don't know, but there's a lot of truth in what
you say when you talk about John Derek. If you
know the story of John and bo.
Speaker 6 (31:58):
Well, I mean you also reached the age where your
friends all you know, get married and have families and
have so many things to do family wise, that they
just aren't available anymore. That's just a natural part of
growing up, unless you're some Peter Pan weirdo like I am.

Sagittarius, mutable energy fills the sky on Monday the fourteenth
