AI WWE Pronunciation Fail

Hey, Katie, did you know that I went What a gym today? No, I didn't, but I'm happy to hear it. Is this the cold open? Yeah. Are we doing know reverse? I decided. Okay. Sokay, hey sorry, you said, Hey, Katie, did you? No, I didn't know tellell me about the gym. Okay, it's for one particular reason and I need I need to have an understanding. Okay from a super sports perspective as a gym as a gym r? No, it doesn' has nothing to do with the gym. I on the treadmill And I look over to my right and I see this man with the Yankees logo tattoo right on his arm arm like upper shoulder. Yeah like upper shoulder and I was just curious Is that a thing? Do people regularly get sports logos tattooed on them? I think I think so, Brady, stop me if I'm wrong. I stop me in my tracks. I wouldn't even think twice, especially that logo. They love to put that logo. Ewhere. Even weirder. I saw a guy when I was walking into work the other day sitting outside of Sirius with a hat on that had a picture of Yankee Stadium that said Yankee Stadium above it No that's what's that? the building. You like the team are just like the house. What are we tattoo. I don't know if that you didn't like it I just I think maybe part of it was also that it wasn't centered. It was kind It was a bad do fully filled in. Yeah. I just like I say fuck the Yankees these days. So I was like, I don't want to see that tattoo Yeah. But okay fine. So basically you're saying I can get a Nx logo right here. I think you should, in fact. I'd get it on the face. I'd actually get it right on my chest. Yeah, yeah, yeah, perfect. rightight in the middle, right on the chest plate. Okay, cool. That's why I really asked. I just wanted the validation to get that tattoo.

I know we're asking a lot of you, but it's a give and take relationship. wouldn't you say, Brady? lot of given All right We give so much. We do. They do or we do You know what we both do? It's a give So what I said before, they given a take and they given Let's do a follow up on the ennhanced games. This is where we're starting because I don't think we're going to spend a lot of time here. Dan in our apartment, my fiance, Dan was like We got to put that on when it starts. He was fully. I did not think we were going to watch it. I thought we were going just make fun of it and then see what happened after. Dan wanted to tune in because he said This is a new sporting event. This is the enhanced Games, the Seroid Olympics, as people are colloquially calling it. The human experiment Funded by Peter Tal and DSza or whatever. happening in Vegas, happened in Vegas this past weekend Dan was like, it's a new brocast. They don't know what they're doing. It's gonna be a mess. We definitely want to watch. So we did watch a little bit and that did happen. There were a lot more moments of like What's going on here than you would normally expect in a sports broadcast. A lot of times it's a well oiled machine. They toss, they go to this, they go to them They go down in the field, they go up to the booth. And this they did not have it down like that But I noticed something, Brady. I know you watched a little bit of it too, so I got mostly questions for you. I noticed in the intro where they were setting up what in the hell we were about to witness They mentioned something like forty two athletes, which I know when we spoke about it last, it was fifty. So what do we did we get any insight into what happened to the eight No, it did make me worry because they had, I think it started with sixty and like the original press release went down to like fifty Then they were training in like Abu Dhabi and then For massive geopolitical reasons. they had to move training. And at that point, once you're moving fifty people out of the Middle East, if you can only account for forty two of them, I need some answers we not check to see if the others. So okay, so it was forty two competitors in running, swimming and weightlifting. And another thing we had talked about going into the weekend was if you break a world record, you get a million dollars. And that was credibly reported, I thought, from where we got it from. So what at the start they said twenty two hundred fifty thousand dollars And that ended up being what they paid out to the, I believe one world record that was broken. What happened to the million They turned the million into just like the sexy events, just like the one hundred meter dash and the fifty meter freestyle, I think. And that fifty meter freestyle ended up the swim ended up being the only record that was broken. So that ended up being the only thing that was paid out for a record And the guy wore a suit, right? He wore woreim. Yeah. he did all of the things that you're not allowed to do in regular swimming. So Of course you're going to I'm amazed they only broke one record. I think they were amazed they only broke one record. They built it up as we are going to break all of these records and the only record that got broken was the last guy to compete at the end of the night. Well, and Fred Curly, who was already in hot water with the governing body of the track and field in the United States for drug for failing a drug test, right didn't even Use PEDs during the was competing clean. What the hell is this event They're promoting these all these athletes that are pumped up on steroids and various drugs. A lot of them, a lot of the peptides and whatnot that are available through the enhanced website. promoting that this is the peak of human condition. They're pushing all these athletes forward and they all get beat by the one guy who's not doing any of them. It just was such a strange. I feel like all we learned is that like Yeah, if you got the world's most elite athletes and druggged them up, maybe we would be learning something, but the drugs themselves alone are not enough to lift a the tier of athlete that would participate in this type of event above a very skilled talented athlete. The drugs alone will not do that. Yeah, the women's one hundred meter dash, I think they were almost a full second off of the brutal just brutal. was the whole thing was a brutal showing. It looked miserable to be at. I know it was invite only, but it seems like a lot of people RSVP know because there were not that many people there. I did see Brian Johnson, the human aging expert, whatever they called him Journey man dude that's trying to reverse aging, he had a parasol the entire time he was reporting on his son But the sun is dangerous. and I think most people aren't taking that as seriously as they should. A lot of people should be wearing sunscreen all the time and they don't. We had this conversation today on radio, Isabella. today National sunscreen. But by the time this comes out People have celebrated that already. Wednesday was National suunnscreen Day or whatever I don't think we need to be carrying around a parasol to shield then go inside, buddy. You know what I mean? This isn't really like gotott to be outside for it. But okay, biggest surprise for me, the killers performing. Now I saw that on a graphic and I said like the killers. Was it a knockoff band, Brady or did you actually get to see the killers perform You know what? I don't have visual evidence they performed. They were promoted as having performed Everything after said they did perform and that's that's I did not see them in the actual event. There' clips came out of it Do't feel below them.'t It does feel below them, but you know what There's the check I'm guessing they were paid handsomely the check probably I'm sick of hearing about the check as the reason for everything. Like it reaches a certain point. like the killers don't need I'm not intimately familiar with their finances, but we're talking about a successful band that people like Like if you told me the killers were like performing at the sphere in Vegas, that would track. It'd be like there there Theyre big enough. They have that c. But I mean do this. It doesn't feel like they did, but they did do it. So did DJ Ruckus and that's take the check, you know what I mean Take the check. So that happened. I don't think it's going to change the game. I'd be surprised if they do it again next year. It doesn't feel like it did a lot. and oh, what's this? The stock price of the company enhanced ty percent on Tuesday. So it does I'm not saying. I'm just saying it feels like once the markets reopened, people were like, oh, this isn't all it was cracked up to be. So whether that's good or bad, I don't know. It seems like we tried steroid Olympics and it sucked Also counter programming to Tough sports. There was like a lot of sports to be watching that weren't this. I don't know why they Why didn't they just run it during the day? This was all around a mess to me. It was bright out anyway. R. They were West cooast.ight It's really hard to take it seriously when it's both quiet and extremely well lit And all you hear is like a DJ spinning in the background. It was very hard to see. It was just tough. It was tough Vegas daytime sometimes unless you're at a pool party It's tough to process with your eyes where you go like the lights don't look the same. It's I'm seeing too much. So seeing people compete in steroid sports I kept like looking the little I watched was through my fingers. I didn't want to see a vein pop out. I just felt like at some point we were gonna to see something orr like during the weight lifting. Yeah during the I thought somebody's like elbow was gonna like pop out all crazy. so I didn't watch too much. It happens and it's the worst thing you'll ever.. I know, and I don't recover well from it.ath Thrones guy was trying to deadlif. He's trying to pick up eleven hundred pounds. And that's a lot. I don't have any context, but sounds like eleven hundred It's a lot for a human being to just get off the ground. Has a human being ever done that?'ve done e hundred Tw pounds That's right, And she's not on any drugs, except recreational We do the recreational Dugs Olympics for us and then that's the You can you can U they put the strain that you're She' on She's on seventy percent pineapple expi. like this. It's a Sativa Iicca hybrid. You can order it here. I mean, I' do this. I would watch this. I would watch this. Text this guy and he will bike to you with. whichich is how it works now. crazy. They make you like scan your ID and then you start to go like, this feels Even weirder. I don't know what to do with this interaction U Okay, so we got the ennhanced games out of the way. The big story Isabella. I haven't like I've been like avoiding talking to you about this all day because I wanted to save it for camera The next I know. The Kicks are going to the finals. Isn't it crazy? Isabella's New York, Hello Kitty Kicks Are going to the NBA finals, the Kicks have not been to the finals since nineteen ninety nine. I was a ripe one year old. Oh fuck I was having a fine day until that We didn't want to talk about it before we left for Memorial Day weekend. Remember we were dancing around it. and I said it's possible that the next time we see Isabella this is over if the nextick sweeps And they did. The Kicks have won eleven games in a row in the postseason. They are rolling. They've got energy, they've got I don't know, they got celebrities behind them. They got celebrities to come out to Cleveland to see the games Did you happen to see Isabella that The that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey. Yeah I saw that Whatever. Okaykay. It didn't work. It didn't help. Yeah, sorry. And then I think he chugged a beer. Yeah. Did you see the clip? I can't tell. She seems annoyed, but it's like, how could you be annoyed? That's Travis Kelsey Travis Kelseying. You know what I mean? It's like if I would be annoyed if Dan did a wrestling impression. It's like that's you chose this. This is the life you chose He loves to, do you think she was being like playful girlfriend? Oh, this guy, but really she loves it Maybe? Yeah. I think in general, we're all reading way too much into those two interacting. I saw I sa th down broadcast capture of it as opposed to the actual clip I't know what the actual Yeah can I pull a curtain back on this? So Travis chugged the beer. He chugged a twelve ounce can of garage beer. What's that type of beer? It's It's the brand of beer that like I think Jason owns the steak in. Okay. They don't sell that at Rocket Arena. Travis BY owed his own B. You can't BY owe your own B. Not all be Y own B. did the same thing What do you think she brought? She did she brought lior? I think she brought liquor Okay, this is quite an accusation. Let's pull this allegedly. You you saw her like slide a flask? It was her pur No no, no. it was like a TikTok where like she was drinking something out of a cup, and then she passed it to Timothy and then Timothy like think they were mixing their own drinks like a high school phone. And then people were like, oh, does she have something in her purse or something Like like she unscrewed the lens off that Nikon camera she was carrying around. Yeah Just a flask. Speaking of cameras on the baseline, did you see This was a couple of games ago, but did you see Ben Stiller, famous New York Kicks fan? was filming like highlights Fr court side this was when the games were in New York And you just see it and it's so beautifully shot. So you're like, this is we should always have directors like cinematically capturing. Beautiful. He even like panned to Jalen Brunson's face, zoomed in and caught like actual emotion. It was a great shot that I'm like, they should be capitalized the same. Did you see that Spike Lee like when they all took a picture at the not the MBA fininals? But when they had the trophy for the Etern Conference F finals and he was just like on the floor, like a dad Yeah taking a picture. It's so cute. It's so fun to see. How are you feeling? You've been watching the games, yes? Yes, yes, I have. And it's been fun It's been fun. Kitty's been in the same spot We're not saying it's all Kitty, but It's at least partially kittdy. I will say though, the more they advance, the more scared I am. Welcome to it. I'm so scared. I'm like you could but I don't want to I know. So let's just make sure on hand at home, you've got like tums or like malos. you've got some sort of something for any digestive issues you may encounter because this is going to be a wild ride Yeah. And it's going to be a lot of anxiety So like if they if something bad about it wouldould you be o? Would you I'm already down a Chris. This is kind of It would be tough. Just me and Brady making a podcast, I think would expose a lot of cracks in the foundation. So I'm not sure we could try our best, but we be can't do it. I'm dying. Yeah.' so sad. And you would have to do it. Here's the thing. I'm not gonna look. I got you into this mess. I know your Ns fandom predates us. I don't w want to take any credit, but like we use your sports fandom for content. I would never we're gonna have to talk But we will do it so gently, if anything were to happen. We will discuss the feelings that it brought up for you and how you're coping with them If just be like this the whole. Yeah. We just just you we can have you camera off, we could do a fun background. we could do whatever you want to do. It will be gentle, but you do have to come we don't to keep talking about it And it won't matter because they're gonna Here's the thing we're still waiting to find out who they're going to play against. You mentioned the trophy ceremony. I did want to mention the thing one of the things I really like about this Nick team and that's Dan and I are both conflicted about liking the Ns. I told him Isabella' is my excuse. I said, Well, I got to root for Isabella. It's better content to see her happy. The joy that this team has brought her and the way that it's displayed on her face and in her energy is like infectious. And so I'm rooting for them in that way. Also we live in New York. It's cool to be a part of, but I'm not going to like bandwagon front run, but I'm also not going to be a hater Their vibes are fun. Did you see during that trophy ceremony what they were doing to head coach. I know it's a sensitive subject because he took your job, but head coach Mike Brown. Yeah, it was really funny. Did you Do we have the clip? play It's like the finding Nemo play Coach Brown. It's so funny. It's also like it made me realize, oh, he's probably been dealing with them doing that This entire this is probably one yes. One of my favorite things on a team energy wise is when like a player or multiple players and the coach have like a bit that annoys each other, but there is clearly loving. Like I feel like Lynn Dor used to have this energy with your former manager on the Mets that I really liked where it was just like something where they like clearly give it to each other back and forth. And I think that's like a cute relationship for a team to have with their coach. So I rememember when no one could touch Adrian Beltade's head? Yes. it was the greatest bitch. Yes. Coaches players, managers. E everyone touching Arian Beltr's head. and he would legit throw things at them So it's an interesting sereries. I'm excited to see what happens in the final the ticket prices. I don't even want to talk about it The ticket prices that I've seen being reported are like What's anybody supposed to do? What's average person who wants to go to a basketball game supposed to do, but I suppose it's Madison Square Garden and you just accept it and that's Goes, Nicks fans have basically promised to riot if they win the finals. And did you see the video of the cops lining up Yeah outside to get ready for the like watch parties of game four? It looked like a scene from the Dark Kight. That was so many cops And I just what are they do Be the guys are still getting up on the light posts. Yeah They're all getting up on awnings like of MSG, like crazy raz so much you can control. Someone was on top of the light post outside of radio City, which I'm like, that's not outside the garden. This is just the whole city. I think they also, I think they moved the watch party from the garden to radio City to try to contain it, make the numbers smaller. which guysuys, the fans are going to spill out into the street no matter where they are So I don't know, we'll see what happens, but we got to wait because in the West, there's just we don't know yet. We don't know. But since the last time the Kicks were in the finals was nineteen ninety nine Isabella and you mentioned roote pretty rudely If I do say so myself that you were the pe old age of one when that happened. Brady put together a little quiz for you. To try to see how much you know about some of the iconic things that happened in nineteen ninety nine. Are you up to the challenge? Okay. I'm excited All right Brady, take it away All right, Isabella, nineteen ninety nine and it's iconic moments. I'm gonna to ask you number one Brandy Chestain achieved worldwide fame for doing what Immediately after scoring the game winning goal for Team USA at the nineteen ninety nine Women's World Cup Oh wait, world soccer? Okay B Chesting, Wen's socc, Women's World Cup, nineteen ninety nine Team USA, Brandy Chestain, scores a goal and then does what Oh, does she do like a celebration? Yes. Partial catemic. What type of celebration? She does a cartwheel. No. No What is there? She very famously took her shirt off and slid on her knees in front of the goal after scoring the game winner on penalty kicks. Damn. Brady, make a note. We got to tell her about the ninety nineers, especially before the movie comes out All right next. numberber two, what bird named skateboarder landed the first ever nine hundred in competition halfpi That's it There she is. Okay. I wanted her to get one. Okay. good perfect. Tony Hawk. Okaykay next. They're going to get progressively harder. Which pro golfer who hasn't competed since twenty twenty four due to back injuries, a second DUI arrest and a trip overseas for rehab won his second career major in nineteen ninety nine at the PGA Championship Tiger Woods. How she get that? How could she possibly have known? many of them. It could have been others. It could have been others. Let jump to one that's very relevant and was on top of our mind. What were we all afraid was going to kill us on december thirty first, nineteen ninety nine? Oh, wasn't it computers? Yeah, but what we call it You guys use it to describe that now the something of the Y two K that's it Y two K Y two K Y two K We were terrified of it. You guys use it to describe wearing chokers andow c low rise jeans. That's crazy We were just convinced planes were falling out of the sky because we put a third and fourth digit in the computer. They were like nobody thought ahead and so when it switches, it's going to think it's nineteen hundred and all your banking information is going to be gone. And we didn't know enough so we went It is We said they made a movie about the No, Was it good? What's the climax of it? Just it strikes midight. No, been a scared movie out of it where it was like they actually the computers actually did kill us sick sick. Which we're almost there. That's coming up. Yeah ye Saking scary movies, let's take it home at this. What low budget horror film set in the woods of Berketttsville, Maryland? project. She knows. All right. She knows. she's a millennial at heart. laaunch the foundound footage genre. As an old I'm not into found footage. sorry. Yeah, it's well, it's not found footage. They made it look like found footage, not found foot. But we all the reason it was crazy is we all thought it was real peopleople thought like this actually happened because we didn't have the internet. We did, but it wasn't at the capacity of at. It's hard to watch. It's hard to watch because it's bouncy, but that was sort of the whole point Um I was going to say much like an older man dating, a much younger woman, I say, Isabella's got an old soul. She may be young, but she's got an old soul. She likes our. She's precocious. She's so precocious Sorry Brady, these are trigger wors Sorry, Brdie. These are really hard for us to deal with U All right, before we wrap up the the Nicks and the cabs, the cav season is obviously now over. That's how it works. Unfortunately, they got swept. Although they did announce yesterday, I believe that Kenny is going to stick around their head coach. They're keeping him on Which, you know, fine, we don't advocate for coaches to get fired here because we don't know. We just advocate for them to get hired because they're sweet Isabella and we think they would do a good job. But he did say something interesting before game four Kenny Atkinson U Can we take a listen to what he said? This was heading in to game four. So they had lost three games and were about to get swept. They didn't know that part yet. so we'll forgive it. But here's what Kenny had to say. Analytically We won I said three out of three were two out of three. the expected if you guys follow that it was an expected score. you know, and we won two out of three. And I know you're looking shes, but I there is really, you know, if you believe in process and all that, like manan up, you know, take that layer Oh my Godd. Are you f? It's so When he's like, I know you're looking confused. No, no, I'm not. I am I am confused. Wh he goes, I don't know if you guys follow that, but there they do expected score. I assume Brady, this is an advanced analytic that tries to extrapolate based off of the whatever that's happening, what the final score is expected to be. sort of like Woba or whatever in baseball where it's all like extrapolated from stats. it means all when it comes to the score and the outcome of the game. So no, I don't think you've won two out of three Analytically, I And then he brings up like trusting the process of it and it's like, well but you do need before the game ends, you need to finish the winning. You can't just the game can't end and you go Stats say we won that one. So I'll count it That's great for like like long term, like a hundred games data figuring out your process. You to win these three. There is to win value to me knowing what the expected score was. I see what the score was and you lost. Crazy that made me feel like I was nuts. Hit him with big Rick and Morty viewer energy where he is like, I don't know if you can follow this. A following me or smart enough to follow me? I don't know if you guys know about this little stat that means nothing Um Another weird thing was what James Harden said after Game four. This is now After they've been swept And he basically says like, who could possibly say which of these two tes is better? Can we play that clip I don't think we we had a chance as far as our best shot you know, from from a standpoint of The circumstances. You know, obviously they just they dominated us four o. but yeah I don't know if I can necessarily answer that question. Just because genuinely I do feel like we are we are the better team You know, and it's just like I get it. I get it. Sometimes you aren't your best you, and you're, but I know deep in my heart we are the better team. It's just like now it's not we're notaring that right now. You know what I'm saying, James Harten. Like now iss not the time to say that you think that you're the better team because If we were to say, well, how could we figure out who's the better team? We'll make them play each other? Someone would go, well, that's not enough. One game couldn't possibly decide. We would have to make, let's try a series of seven games up to seven games. and whoever wins four of them first will say is the better team. That's exactly what happened. And you lost four of them analytically. No for real on the scoreboard. So technically, you didn't win any And so you can't be the better team. The better team has to show up. You can't just be in your mind like a version of yourselves that you the team that showed up was Larly not the better team as is evidenced by the people in the streets of Manhattan with brooms So you lose Isabella wins and like I said, now we await to see what comes out of the West Game six of the in the Western conference will be tonight. The Thunder have a three two lead in that series. So if the Thunder win tonight, they move on It is in San Antonio And so it's possible that a lot of people are counting out the spurs already This is a very close series that has been trading wins. so I'm not ready to do that Um A lot of discussion around this series and who people are rooting for. I know we've been pretty heavily across the board rooting for WeMby and the Spurs, but one of our listeners called us out and thinks maybe we've been Unfair. Can we play this voicemail Isabella in Colorado And I'm calling because I'm a little annoyed with Wendy. you guys talked about it just a little bit on your last episode And then everybody hates SGA S build the Sagon for the Thunder Everybody hates him because they say he flops a lot. all the star players like Lua Donfit and sorry Isabella, but Jalen Brunson for the next. They all do all the same stuff and don't catch near as much frack I can't help but feel like it's partly because he's Oklahoma City and not a major market. Love you, mean it bye. Love you mean it, Christopher. Thankk you for your call Love to have us called out and brought to the floor and to atone for anything that we've said Brady, you found the numbers. Somebody ran the numbers you said Yeah, Tom Habperstraw from Yahoo Sports ran the numbers of like Does everybody else do what SGA does as much? And what SGA does is gets to the free throw line an absurd amount He shoots a lot of free throws. He's really good at shooting free throws. he scores a lot of points He will drive to the hoop or he'll pull up for a jumper and more than anybody else in the NBA He falls down He hits the ground, he gets fouls called on him. And it works for him. And you know what? if it works, it works, but that doesn't make me have to like the way he plays basketball. So but you said that it was like it was like the amount that he does it is the amount of everybody. What was the stat? you said? It's like Brunson and Donvan Mitchell combined it's like the Brunson and Mitchell combined fall down less than Alexander does. likeike Harden is the only one that's nearly that's nearly where he is He When he he falls to the ground more than anyone and he gets a foul call on him, I think twenty three out of forty six times during the the first four games Yeah of this series. Yeah and it works. He's trying to put points on the board. But I hate watching it. Right. So here's this is the two parts of it, right? because we argue if he is doing it, if he is a foul merchant, if this is a legitimate way to play basketball. a lot of people have opinions on that But I think I kind of heard Rachel Nichols say this in a way that crystallized it for me. That was like, that's half of it. And then the other half of it is enjoying to watch it And it is not a incredibly watchable product way that Oklahoma City plays. So for a casual fan of basketball that is not rooting for either of these two teams, the likelihood I'm going to stick and watch this whole game all the way through is less when I do not enjoy the brand of basketball that is being played. Again, it's not to say that OKC is wrong or that they should stop doing it because why would you if it's working for you. So in my opinion, it would be on the NBA then to get this sort of behavior more discouraged within the sport so that teams aren't like, well, if you're not and you're not trying Like you do not want to encourage other teams. It kind of reminds me. it's analogous to the push push where it's like if we let everybody do it, it's going to become unwatchable, but the only way to get people to stop doing it is to make it not is to litigate around the rules for it. So I don't know what the answer is and I don't intend to find it. I feel like Yes, SGA does seem to do it more than anybody. and yes, I understand why. I'm not even holding it really against him and I think that might be Chris's point here, Chris from Colorado, but I just feel like I make Chris like h No, not Chris.'s unless he phones in with a point, which would take a couple days to connect as I understand. I don't think we can just imagine Chris editing this audio and be like, fuck No Isabelle that's a point. Yeah. wrriting in with his point, putting it into the episode description. and just according his own single audio. Hi, this is Chris. I'm editing and I just wanted to say So I don't know your voicemail is just with a thick Australian accent. This is Chris from Delaware Uh yeah, so the foul merchant conversation is going to continue. It seems like the numbers bear out that he does do it, but I don't even blame him. I just don't want to watch it. I'm just saying like You're not going to get in depth. I watched every second of this game analysis for me because I just there's too much for my eyeballs to watch and I do not Do not want to watch that. It's not enjoyable to me B comment I saw was that The end of every Shake Gil J just Alexander jump shot looks like Andy from Toy Story has just walked into the room J just crbbles. Isabella, have you seen that trend on TikTok to a Beyonce song Where a guy the guy picks up the girl and she sits on his arm while he leans on the wall. And so she like perches on his arm. And then she like does cute. I saw a lady try that with her boyfriend and she fell down, fall so hard, basically crack her skull. and like the number one comment was that. It was the woody on the ground crumpled pile Oh, brutal. U Okaykay, here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna to take a break. When we come back Women's collollege softball World sereries. We gott to talk about that. I'm so hyped. I got way, way too into the Super reggionals this past weekend and I want to tell Isabella about these teams. And I know Brady's been following Texas tech And he'll talk about what happened in that game. There was drama. We also need to talk about Bryce Harper We just have to because why who doneone something weird Again So all that and more coming up. This is Casual. We'll take a quick break. We'll be back. Okay, welcome back to casuals. Big weekend in auto racing. firstirst of all, we have to unfortunately start with a tragedy that really shocked L the sporting world, obviously the racing world, racing is a very close knit community and they lost a member of the family This shockingly at the end of last week on Thursday, we all found out that Kyle Bush died and outut of nowhere. notot at all something anybody had expected. He'd been dealing with some issues in a race before But nothing that had been escalated to this level. We found out that he was rushed to the hospital on Thursday with some sort of a sickness and then by later in that day gone. I I talk a lot about misinformation on this podcast I looked at my computer and I was like, this can't be, right? I'm seeing Kyle Bush has passed away. I didn't believe it. I was like looking and looking for more sources because I just It was that shocking. forty one years old And we now know that he had pneumonia which quickly as it can, devolved into sepsis. and sepsis is like. One of the scariest things that I think can happen. It happens so quickly and it's so Dangerous and harmful U Your body basically turns against you and that is Terrifying And so tragic and so sad um, to have just lost someone who, I mean, he had just raced Previously, like the week before, Brady or two weeks before Crazy And so it was an absolute shock. I watched a lot of people's reactions to it I saw Marty Smith on Sports Center just an incredible job of After finding out such shocking news Like I said, it's a very tight knit community in NASCAR. to go on TV and memorialize him with such honor and dignity and respect for the family and to sort of let people who maybe aren't as plugged into the racing community know exactly who this guy was And why he was so amazing, the fact that he was so good, so young They had to change the sport to allow him. He's such a pure natural talent. He had a reputation as being like a villain for a bit of his career, but he's been racing for so long. grown up in front of our eyes and This was so shocking to hear and I know a lot of people were really devastated by this. It's a devastating loss to the NASCAR community to the sporting world at large. So scary. our thoughts are with his family. They did a great job. The Coca Cola six hundred was this past weekend and they did a great job of like a moment of silence For him and his family, that was incredibly hard to watch because again, you're watching people that are those children are still trying to understand what There's no way there're they get it and and And his wife God, they were such u advocates. for people struggling with fertility they had a foundation, Brady that you mentioned where they helped people or maybe it was Steve who was telling us this that he helped provide funding for people who needed money to pursue a fertility journey that theyn't Afford U And I just, you know, I we werere still reckoning with the loss. It was absolutely shocking, devastating NASCAR did a great job with it this weekend as good as one could, But what a tough, tough loss to have found out on Thursday Also, this weekend the indndie five hundred. I know a lot of people have like their Memorial Day weekend, indie five hundred traditions. U I tuned in this week this time. I don't often watch it. I watched it a lot when I was little Racing sports, I've had my brother was really into cars And then we that's probably like a little boy. that's like dinosaurs. It feels like one of the chapters that you one of the eras that a little boy goes through before he latched ont to hockey and then really didn't go towards anything else. It was just all he ever wanted to watch was hockey highlights. But for a while there we were watching indy five hundred and this year I tuned in And I see, of course, the Sirus XM car winning The closest finish in U Iy five hundred history. Isabellel, didid you see the picture? No of the it was by a nose It was like a photo finish, the call of it. actually gave me goosebumps when I listened to it. I was like this is like it was so exciting. It really came down to the final seconds and Felix Rosenquist won. What was the margin of victory o point zero two, three, three seconds. I mean, I can't I can't even comprehend how quick Is that like that? It's like a that's so quick. I think it's an actual blink We should mention Catherine Leg, I know we said before she tried the she was attempting the doubles. She was the first woman to try it. And that's when you race in the indy five hundred and then you fly or take whatever transportation. to the Coca Cola six hundred and race in that She got knocked out of the I don't think she finished. didid she finish either race? I know she didn't finish the didn't She like sixteen laps back. And you know what? It's a difficult challenge. Not a lot of people have done it successfully. I think one person Yeah I think one Right. So it's not like the margin of victory. It's not like a lot of people are out here just doing it and it's easy. It's incredibly difficult She tried it, good for her for trying it Um in that Chrome ellf car, I like that car. It's cool looking what is what is the F usually? because all of her stuffs like eyes, lips, fuel Face face Yeah Okay. you just knew you could sus out that it was't eyes lips fuel. Like that is not the regular makeup brand, but ye, they're Also the issue, eyes and lips are located where It seems like on the face. Right. So it's kind of a tough, but hey, it works. A lot of people don't even know it's dance for anything. So Brady youre alreadyhead of the You're aad of the bun U Oh, that is a cute car. Isn't it cute? I like it. Yeah, Elf is like secretly quietly stepping into like like sponsoring women and sports and stuff. I see you, Elf. I love that because I use Elf so much. Yeah. I remember when they first came out, I was like, this is affordable, good stuff. Okay, Bryce Harper, we've arrived. We've arrived as we're talking about toiletries, et ccer. We have arrived at the Bryce Harper story. Isabell, you have enough you have a little bit of context of Bryce Harper blood And that will come back up. Okay. So Bryce Harper posted a TikTok. Wait sry, remind me what sport he plays? Baseball. Baseball. For the Philadelphia Phillies. Okay U He posted a TikTok and in it, he's talking about something honestly I did not listen to a word he said because in it, he's brushing his teeth And it just I don't think I've ever seen anybody brush his teeth This way Um, Isabella Did you watch this at all? en it. Okay. so what he does is he takes the Paste tube and he squeezes it into his mouth No Lips to tube, squeezes it into his mouth, puts the tube down and then la la runs, I think he runs the brush under the water blah blah, bl, blah blah blah starts brushing like toothpaste onto teeth. I think it's toothpaste into mouth. J into mouth. And then I think he's sort of smshing it around. It's similar to how I brush my dog's teeth. But I don't think I've ever seen a human suck on the Tbe The germ transfer from mouth to tube is what if you're sick? Why would you do it that way? And why do you look like you like doing it though? What the fuck is that Brace need to see at least a picture of it. And it's done like it's completely normal because the video is a nine minute long TikTok. It's just to get ready with me for hot. He's not doing it like check out how I brush my teeth. It's like wild He's trying to just do something normally. and everyone went, I'm sorry. What was that ra It's crazy. Brady, you mentioned earlier you were gonna defend him. I was wondering if you were ready to do that or I'll do it now We can do everything else in this context I like Bryce, I've been 've been in clubhouses with Bryce plenty. Brady had a kind ofge Majague baseball before we Before we began this podcast, it covered major League baseball for like fifteen years Price is a really Nice, normal Die outside of like all of these little quirks that make you think like why do you do this this way He is someone who grew up As a homeschooled Mormon kid in Nevada and has never been like with kids his own age growing up He was on an accelerated path in school because the goal was to get him graduated from high school early so he could go into the MLB draft early He has always played sports with kids older than him because he's better than them. He's not just been in regular classrooms and He's been famous since he was like fourteen years old. And I think there are just a couple like little socialized developmental steps that that kind of skipped by Bryce long ago that he's had to make up for in real time as an adult in front of the public eye And I think just nothing is really Um There's nothing malicious. There's nothing That is not These are like controversies. They're just little like weird quirky guy' generally as good in the heart. Sure. it's just like there's a little quirky. They're so weird. I was gonna ask if this toothpaste thing even cracks the top five weirdest stuff I've seen Bryce Harper do. There's the he drinks he's a raw milk guy, right? He's a don't pasteurize your milk, which I that's for you fine. I would never. Yes, incredibly. And so I would never push publicly that that that's a good idea. You know what I mean? So there is to me a little bit of inherent danger being a pro athlete and being like for me, it's just Milk that hasn't been gone through the process that makes it safe to drink. L maybe he has access to some high quality uter. I don't know. I don't know. But the average person should not be encouraged, I don't think, to drink unpasteurized milk. Like we remember Louis Pasteur because of what a huge deal that was for allowing us to has Milk. So I don't know. U He also had a third of his blood removed and then spun around treated with ozone and then put back into his body I don't even know how to start asking questions. I don't know where to start with a question. I don't know, whereere you get Ozone? What is it? Wh do we Go up and grab it? I don't I thought I thought we were lacking ozone. I thought there was a bad science well in know the idea of the blood going back into my m No. I don'tew stuff in it. what's not No A third of my blood Oh it feels so much lighter. That's crazy. What is this my period U he also What else? There's other ones. I know there's other ones In that same video of him getting ready, he just espouses his copper tongue scraper. It's like, this is something I can't live without. Can't live without is a step too far It's a set you can absolutely live without a copper tongue scraper You know, lastast year, he was in a slump just spontaneously just shaved his head and just came back in like it was nothing. like this is what's gonna to get me over there. I like that. actually support that. I've been a supportive. I've been supportive of that since Britany. I was scrolling through TikToks and being like What have I missed about Bryce Harper? There's one of him that's really off putting of him pulled off on the side of the road doing the TikTok from his driver's seat, maybe passenger seat. He's not moving. There there are cars whizzing by him on the side. And it's like people have been asking me, what cologes am I really into these days Here are my favorite cologes right now like this Like he pulled over, he had to get this off. these jets. It's like I've seen the last tweet about it. I need to let you know, these are my favorite colognes. I'm getting sick of the people in cars doing interviews, by the way, notot on TikTok. That's fine. Adam Sfter. But so Isabella saw Adam Shfter on Pat McAfee and has no context really and goes, whyy is this guy always in his car? whichich I thought was so funny? But then yesterday I was watching Sports Center and I don't remember who it was. Jacob Fatu, maybe. they had him in his car like talking to Sports Center. and I'm like, you a pro wrestler in a car looks so weird Please get him out. He looks like he doesn't fit He's like a big gigantic guy. Get into we used to live in a society where if you were doing a live hit on spports Center, you were in a little studio and you did your live hit and then you went and sat in your car. Everybody's just coming on TV from their car on their phone. I step it up, please. I'm sick of this I distracted us. Anything else that he's weird that he's done There was that time last year or maybe the year before, but the NLB deputy threatened to threatened him with that's how people end up in a ditch after he threw Rob Manford out of the clubhouse because Manford came in talking about a salary cap inajor Lague baseball. Maybe this is not weird.'s like a weird story that invol was a weird that's how people end up in a ditch was We have a mob enforer now in Major Lague baseball threatening. I was gonna to ask I was like there's a deputy. So what do you think Isabella? Do you would ever squirt your toothpaste into your mouth before brushing your teeth? No. You see the merits of the practice at all And do you think that Bryce Harper is a psychopath? I mean, we all do crazy things. Right. So it's we'll just we'll go easy on him, but like, hey, buddy Please don't. that Yeah Yeah I'd rather put put on your finger and then put it in your mouth or something That's how I brush my dog's teh. put put it on your toothbrush And then put I don't knowound mouth Hell to put it on something on his body first before putting it on the toothbrush. So I don't know It's too it it would remind me too much of those. rememember when like P bar came out with that the power gel and you would just see them like squeezing gel out of a little packet into their mouth. And I always my issue with it was always textural. I'm like, I would not want to suck Some goo out of a tube. eat. And so the thought of wanting to do that with your toothpaste is like Also it makes me think you're using too much toothpaste. You're only supposed to use a sized amount. If you are squeezing it into It's just a nightmare. Oh yeah, that whole cascading pompador of toothpaste are they show in the cor It's too much. It's too much. and that's big toothpaste trying to you to buy more. What he's doing into his mouth? I just think that'. So this is a whole sci out by big toothpaste, you're saying. Maybe just to get us to use more. Just like rinse and repeat the shampoo. They're just trying to get you to go through the product twice fast. You don't have to do it do a I stay strong? Somewhere a person like an aesthetician's like pulling their hair out, being like, Yes, you do. You have questushion again. I'm not doing it. I'm going I'll be brave.'ll brave.rowing things. Okay, we've got a favorite segment. We almost bumped into this during the Nick cabs, but we just use those as sound bites. but we have put together a little bit of Should I said that out loud? Look, everybody loves it. It's stuff we've bumped into over the weeknd sports that we hear with our ears and we go, maybe that didn't need to be said out loud. And we are starting with an absolute banger of a should I have said that out loud? This one knocked me stopped me my tracks. This one I had to rewind my TV and go, did I? Har what I thought I just heard. So this is during the Texas, Arizona state Super regional game this past weekend. and Let's just let's just listen to the broadcast As it went out live. Wonderful relationship, those two when you come to Austin, they tell you. everybody going compete for a national championships as an assistant Who is that No one know We don't know. I assume my fan al that we could be run Yes, please. D when you come to Austin, they tell you You're going to compete for national Championships. I do think it's worth asking, where was RFK junior this weekend Be it does just feel like They were so close. I think what must have happened is they found a field mic or a mic that was put out in the crowd to pick up crowd noise, identified it, and then they managed the timing so perfectly that the booth said, you know, when you come here, they always say little pause and then lick my butt Well what the captions said was not lick my ballsack The caption said, Nick Mudball sack. Now, I don't know if those are AI are those AI generated at this point? Has that job already been outsourced to a computer Because it's nobody would have but Nick Mudball sack Longghorn legend. I think what Mudball sack I think what actually happened was Nick Ball sound. Um And there's I mean, really, there's nothing the broadcast could do about that. I wonder if the people in the booth could hear that it happened and had to keep powering through without laughing or if that just didn't the feed of the mic doesn't go to them, and maybe they just didn't hear it U they may not have the Nat sound from the field. there's no way they do because I don't think I don't think would Sully himself could power through that. Yes, it's crazy Llick my ball's head Is And so no, I guess would be the answer. No, you shouldn't have said that. Os. Out loud, what a crazy specific thing to say on a women's college softball broadcast Um This next one's really fun too. Isabella, have you been watching the French Open? I know you're our tennis girl. I actually haven't. Okay, get outon I had to tell her about Naome Osaka's. Yeah haven't I haven't been as I'm so sorry I was so that's okay That's all. And like I've said before, you only have one set of eyeballs and you and you've got to use them how you can and you've been really focused and it's been working for the Kick, so we can't possibly. But now that you've got some time to wait for the Western confonference ros to finish, you can lock back into the French open. and maybe you'll see moments like this. So our tour Jaya. Right is how we're saying his name U This was Sunday at the French Open. He was he needed to take an emergency break And which isn't usually allowed they were going like, we can't. And then we heard why Is it doctor? For mical re Yeah, No he has some stomach problems. Did they let him? They had to let him. You cant He had stomach problems and he was like, I'm sick, I'm going to shit on the court. And I say, yes. You should have said that out loud. You absolutely should have said that out loud because's listen, bodies are weird. crazy stuff happens. The French openp does not need you to shit yourself on TV The last thing a prestigious tennis match needs at Roland Garos. up Oh my imagine seeing it on his leg and having to go what is the o My God It's about how does that work with clay courartz? I't I don't service very well, but I imagine the cleanup's not gonna to go well. Exactly. You got like basically powder mixed with poop. Oh God Oh Godd So I think they let him do it. And yes, he should have said that out loud. addvocate for yourselves. You've got to use as few words as possible to communicate the urgency of the situation And I think he did exactly that. I am going to shit myself. We need to Get me off the court. It's coming. It's coming And I actually don't even have time to negotiate this with you. Can I go, please? The poopinging is happening. Um, Okay, continuing on, we should I have said this out loud. This is probably the The biggest one of the weekend Jackson Dart quarterback for the New York football Giants T out of his busy schedule time away from a team that a lot of people have a lot of hope for this season. A lot of positive vibes going into the season For the New York football giants and Jackson Dart said, hold my beer. I've just gota do this. He introduced President Trump at a rally. Rockland Community College in Suffn Ca, suuckatash On Friday. Let's take a listen to Jackson Dart introducing Donald Trump. What our s It big blue nation. It's a pleasure to be here We gotta start this off with a go big blue. I love it if y'all follow with me. Go big blue. Go, big blue. G big blue, G big blue What an honor, what a privilege it is to be here. And without further ado, I'm grateful, I'm honored. I'm pleasured to introduce the forty fifth and forty seventh presresident Jesus Christ President Donald J. Trump. She I amm proud to be H I had to include the sloppy. it play. And I'm proud to be Amer. forty seventh. Yeah, the forty fifth and forty seventh He also at first said go Big boo. He also said Big Boo. I spepeaking of boo, tomato, tomato, tomato B. What are you doing? I am honored. What was the second one? I am Grateful Privileged and I am pleasure pleasured Hey, big dog, let's take a knee. You are not pleasured. He even you could tell he like looks off and gives a little pause. I'm pleasured to introduce that whole thing was so uncomfortable and so awkward that it's like Why Why do it do it. time when listen, you can have your political beliefs, anybody can have their political beliefs. I think we can all agree that like more than any time in our lived experience, things are volatile in the political space. I think that goes without saying. People believe what they believe and argue about it all the time. Things are Stpping off And so back in the day, what would happen in situations like that is you'd go, that's a little hot right now. Let's not turn the ball over Let's just avoid that because no one's gonna notice that you didn't do it, Jackson Dart If you were to turn this down, no one would go like Jackson Dard didn't do it you just don't do it and then you don't have to deal with potential fallout because in an arena when it things are so heated right now, likelihood of fallout High So PR teams would usually step in and go, we're not doing anything political right now. Things are kind of we're in a war that prices are going up. peoplee are struggling to afford. And the president is saying he doesn't care about that. citizens are being shot by the secret police forces. It's like there's a lot going on And so you can have voted for and believed in, you can be Republican, you can be whatever you want to be. that is Part of the issue, it's not even the part I'm talking about PR inststinct to turn over the ball metetaphorically is concerning for a quarterback The ability to not identify that the risk reward in this avenue will not pay off The ROI is not worth it The audible you're calling is the wrong one. It's just not what I want from a franchise quarterback that we're trying to say. sureure, he plays in a way that's really tough to stay healthy and' tough to have career longevity. But we like him. He he's good. He means well. He tries hard It's just hard to go like, I'm excited about my quarterback when the quarterback just voluntarily does something Pisses off a lot of people he shares a lockerom with. now to that point. Linebacker Abdual Carter Twitter posted the video and said thought this shit was AI What are we doing man Now If you go look for that tweet It's gone, which I find really interesting Because I did see a lot of reaction. I'm just trying to look at less stuff online because the amount of bots that you can actually kind of see now is like Maybe I'll just protect what I've got up here instead of getting misinformed by whatever all of this is Somebody People were crriticizing harder for dividing the locker room Duel Carter who was just reacting to belief that he had that his quarterback out of nowhere at a time like this would go I'ma go ten toes down for the president At a rally, what president has ever had rallies before while in office the forty fifth or forty seventh president only because it's not a thing you do unless you're in a let's not get into it too much. So former giants kicker, Lawce Tynes tweets, The lockerom is a sacred place because it brings together everyone from all walks of life and beliefs for one common goal. Calling a teammate out publicly for his political views and to get attention is nasty work He basically accused Abdul Carter of dividing the locker room himself by saying that he could not believe that Jackson Dart volunteered to introduce President Trump at a rally So Abdul Carter says that he spoke to Dart He said, M and JD six are good, which is really scary. J six is it's so close to accidentally writing J six. Oh, he's J six Hy to do J. This man has adopted the nickname of J six for Like we hadn't noticed until now and now until right now. So he's a J sixer. J six and Big Bue. Me and J six and Blig Boo. Me and J D six are good U We spoke earlier as men, y'all can keep your narrative. The men capitalize. Yeah. we spoke as men Y'all can keep your y'all narratives. So then Isabella, guess who chimes in on this. Your boy. Yes, that's right. Boomer. Isabella's media beef Recent inductee into the radio Hall of Fame. I'm coming. I'm coming behind youomer. Boomer ses and says T this out of Abdul Carter, this is him talking about Abdul Carter. To put this out like a child on social media is ridiculous. And then when I heard, yeah, we spoke man to man Yeah, there was only one man on that call And that was Jackson Dart Hh Mice What I don't want scream. I don't to off the rails and we're already at an hour and so I do have to move us on. But I really think a lot of you are not understanding that this isn't a game for a lot of people. What's going on right now politically is very real for a lot of people And they're treating it like, o, I like chocolate and you like vanilla. Can't we all get along? And I just That's not tracking with what I'm seeing. It isn't chocolate or vanilla. And there is a reason that certain players would feel betrayed to their core by something like this happening, not just to know this now about their teammate but also to know that their teammate doesn't even care enough to just go like, why would I do that? Why would I introduce it? Why would I dip my toe into whyy would I be put on camera praising how much this guy rules and how pleasured I am to bring him out at this rally. when I don't have to, when I could just be secretly super into it and not piss off who I have to sort of lead as a Like this isn't just Abdul Carter being pissy because he disagrees with your personal preference. This is Abdul Carter feeling like an administration that is attacking beliefs and values that this country was supposedly built on, being supported by a teammate that just doesn't seem to that seems to think it's cool thinks it's like sick. I I could not believe hearing people react to that. like it was Abdul Carter'sault. Yeah. That's crazy. Jamelle Hill did a good job. She said, so Jackson Dart gets to publicly express his political beliefs, but Abdul Carter doesn't. If this is about lockerom sanctity and leadership, is it a good idea for the face of the franchise to attend a political rally for a president that's considered to be hugely divisive?actly whether you're on side A or side B Maybe what matters to abdual cardterate isn't even what we're talking about. It's a divisive person. Why even throw your hat in the ring Why even Unless it matters to you that much in which case, it is weird, J six. It is weird for it to matter to you that much right now in that way beinging shocked that your teammate Abdil Carter, who is young bllack and Muslim would have any sort of stake in this issue. like It's an oblivious level. It is It's an oblivious level that I would be fine with a quarterback being if he shut the fuck up about. It's like you don't have to be an expert in everything, but like you do need to know the limits of what you do know And like I am not going to be accepting If we come to a point later, years down the line where people like A.Jacks and Dart, for example, let's say he were to come out and go like, I didn't really understand what was going on with X Y and Z politically. so I didn't know at the time. I would never have stood with a president if that's how Th your job is to know before you stand with the president. You can't just go like, yes Of course, I'll do it. What a booking. You got to at some point realize and Trump does this with a lot of things, he needs you more than you need him. He's counting on you and your fan base and you kind of running cover because you have positive your polling well And he's gw. So at some point, you've got to notice that like he's using you and you're willingly being used. and something about that rubs people the wrong way. And I do not want to later hear you didn't understand the ways in which you were being used because if that's the case You should have not. participated in it The whole thing is a mess. It's a mess that he invited into the locker room And I will be holding him responsible for not his teammates who feel some type of way in reaction to his actions Insane. We are losing the plot more and more each day Aly we're still and should have said that out loud. I think the answer to this one was no, pretty strong no. Should not have said any of it out loud. There is S should have rehearsed the numbers you were going to say. Maybe the sizes and colors in consecutive order. Gotta to start out with a big blue here. I'd love if you could join me. It's like chararisma negative zero Zero z in this interaction. and I just Aura Fmed, none. None. Zero aura farmed, negative aura. You left Aura behind at the podium He's the shitty pro wrestler who goes out and the first thing he says is it's great to be here. in Knoxville, Tennessee and holds it out for applause. You're in New York. It's the place that has always known who Trump is, who has not been surprised by any of the developments. veen them and experienced them. It's not It was just a stupid mistake. But giants PR needs to get their shit together, respectfully. becausecause between this and the Epstein files thing, I'm not getting enough from them in terms of doing their jobs. They've got an exciting team and I keep talking about anything but the football of it. So get it together N York cam Scataboo's entire off season. Oh, that's right. He doesn't believe in concussions doesnn't believe in asthma. Great. Very cool. Um What we do have one more should I have said that out loud? And it does tie in. And we'll just hit it really quick because you can't bring the guy up which Jackson Dart did. and not talk about the fact Donald Trumps son Names his namesake is his father, Donald Jr. got married this past weekend in the Bahamas And Trump was asked on Thursday if he was going to go. Let's hear what he had to say It's going to be just a small little private affair and I'm going to try and make it. I'm in the miss. I said, you know, this is not too timing for me think on Iran and other things. That's one I can't went on. If I do attend, I get killed. If I don't attend, I get killed. And the than news, of course, I'm talking about it now but he's a very person I've known for a long time. and What? They're gonna have a great marriage person you've known, his whole life, you could even say, I think I've known him since the day he was born I'm glad you she heard that right. Yeah, Isabelle, you're hearing that right. Okay what he said. I think it's possible. God, I hate to do this I think it's possible he was trying to refer to the woman that he's marrying I think he was it's possible he was saying he's got a very lovely wife brain probably forgot the word fiance because it ain't a wife It's not great at thinking on its feet that brain. And so instead it just goes, he's got a very Pers who I've known for a long time and hopefully they're It's possible he's talking about possible You know to give the president of the United States credit for what he might have wanted to say. kills me to do it, but I do think that's possible. What is it possible? startarting with he'd like me to go. Yeah, I bet he'd like that I bet he'd like if I went to his wedding, that fucking son of mine. He's always asking me to do stuff like go to his wedding and visit with my grandchildren. But it's like I got a rond to worry about. You know, the country I started a war with. and then 's thinking about h I can't win If I go to the wedding, they'll be mad at me. If I don't go to the wedding they'll be mad at me. All poor victim president Youor a victim for he can't win. I can't win I guess he should just golf instead I guess he'll just probably Did he golf instead? I would not be shocked. I'm pretty sure. Maybe not because of the rain, but I think he was at bed ander this weekend Beautiful J just beautiful and I am pleasured to bring that audio to you. I am fully pleasured climaxing to bring that audio to you O president. That should I have said that out loud. Doo boop,oo boop. Low. Whs Um, hockey, y'all, I don't. I can't fucking believe the Colorado avalanche played in my goddamn face. I rooted for that team. They won the president's trophy. They had the best record in the regular season. They were so good. I was low key rooting for them too. I haven't watched a single set. That's o. That's It look like I like the way that team sounds. Yeah. No They didn't give a shit Isabella. They said you want us to win, watch a game one time because they were infuriating. I was mad at them like I knew them and I barely know these guys. I've been watching them in the post season I hate Vegas. Vegas are the current villains of the NHL for a number of reasons. It's worth saying, so this the Vegas Golden Knights advance. They swept the Colorado avalanche The avalanche were the favorite in the series and doesn't matter. They got swept The Vegas Golden Knights are now going to the Stanley Cup fininal, where they will face either the Montreal Canadians or the Carolina Hurricanes. We're still waiting on that series. We have nothing decisive to say about it yet. so we're kind of skipping it today. But the Golden Kights are advancing. Now this is the third time in there is it eight Seasons Nine seasons as a team. This is the third time they're making it to the finals. So there is an argument to be made that this is like the greatest expansion team that history, that sports has ever seen come into the league and right away start making it far into the post season And they've, you know they' won a Stanley Cup and now they've got another chance to again There's also arguments I've seen people that know a lot more about the in depth hockey draft, expansion draft, etcetera that feel that Vegas got sort of a leg up that other expansion teams didn't necessarily have. They were able to pick from more players, more high quality players O teams weren't allowed to protect They're better players in that expansion draft. There's arguments to be made. It's not going to be made here in casuals For the sake of you to know they' the villain. They're the villain right now in the league. They've got John Tortorello. We've talked about him a lot. They brought him in at the end of their season and he has basically used his very unique brand of coaching that some people like, some people don't But it has lit a fire under the ass of the Golden Knights and they've been winning Around the same time that Tortarella became their head coach, Carter Hart, a controversial goalie came back from injury. I believe it was one game after Tortarella was named the head coach. And he's also been very good whereas he was not very good before that. And he's also got I've got my own issues with Carter Hart that that I dance around talking about because I really don't want to get into it. I don't like him And everyone else is able to make their own decisions about that. I read testimony and coverage of that trial, the hockey Canada trial, and I've got my opinion. And so I hate the Kights and they now swept Colorado, Dan's mom, my future mother in law at some point. We are going to get married at some point She is an avalanche fan. That's the only connection I really have to this team, and yet I still was rooting for them so hard to watch them Disintegrate was very frustrating And um Pretty confusing Vegas is just clicking. They're absolutely clicking. Isabella, Vegas has a player named Mit Marner This is his tenth season. He played the first nine. These numbers are off the top of my head, so if they're wrong, just Google it. They're close. The first nine he played with the Toronto Mapleeafs, and the knock on him repeatedly was like He just does nothing in the post season He cannot get it done. Mitch Marner. Oh my Godd. when is he going to get it done? And now in Vegas his first year away from that team, his first year with Vegas and he's like Cushing Potential playoff MB. Yeah, he's absolutely crushing it. And I was telling this to Dan last night and Dan said Good for him. He unlocked something And I thought that was So funny. The connection that Dan made to Mitch Marner is when you're constipated and nothing will come out and then something clicks, you figure it out And now you're pooping. But I don't like John Tortorerella being the laxative here. Like you shouldn't get credit for this. I don't like the guy. ' not the one that should make the poop. People do like him. Some people do like him. He's just I don't know that his brand of coaching is as sustainable as you would want it to be. So he kind and what we have to remind you is he is not on contract. He's not under contract after the Stanley Cup. So he's about to coach in the Stanley Cup final win or lose. We don't know if he's their coach next year. He does not have an existing deal. And Vegas is also being weird about the coach they fired, who they are still payingce Bruce Cassidy, who won them their cup Um, they're not letting him interview at other teams And I saw somebody suggest that that's because they're trying to They don't know what's going to happen with their coach at the end of the season, so they don't want to help other people get their coaching carousel start to be figured out. because then they won't, they'll behind on the timeline of that they're going to try to bring him back I don't know, I put nothing past this team. They the stuff they've done with their salary cap. I'm like, that doesn't seem allowed, it feels like you should be in trouble for that. So I don't know Vegas kind of operates under their own wild rules, but they are the villain now Another thing I hate about them that other people probably don't care enough about. They've got sparkly jerseys And I hate it. I hate Yeah, and they have this type of sparkle that is reminiscent of like your aunt's sweater that she would hug you with when you were a kid at a family function and it was itchy. It was like that kind of itchy, sharp it's just there, I hateem And I'm thank you for letting me speak my truth here because I hate them. I think they look so cheap and yucky and even on two of that we've talked about a ton of times podcast Bam A of Bio and Asia Wilson. They were they did that miced up court the at the rink watching one of the games And they were wearing these golden nights jerseys. and I just was like, I hate Really sparkly. A way sparklier than I imagine It's you don't notice it until it's close up on the broadcast then you go like I don't I like them trying new stuff and Vegas does try a lot of new stuff is Bill. They have cheheerleaders in the like on the stairs in the crowd. Like they do a lot of like fire hazard. Yeah. they do a lot of like check us out, We're Vegas. We do all this weird stuff. And look, I don't care. I love bring people in grow the game. It doesn't matter to me But the jerseys I just don't like. And this Bam out of Bio one kind of was the center of a controversy because bam is apparently a Florida Panthers fan. Now I don't acknowledge that I think that's disgusting but to each his own. And so after he was seen at the game, he put out this video trying to explain to Pantherers fans like to stop jumping down his throat. Do we have this audio? Listen to what he says But we just went to a nice gang. I just want everybody to know. Do. I just couldn't wear it in there becausecause I was with somebody, but Y'all know what it is. Okay, first of all, with somebody Yeah. Asia Wilson. Let's just call we don't have to I was with somebody She plays for Vegas. sos that's the connection, but it's to say like I was only doing it because I was with somebody. Then he holds up a pantherers' I think a jersey, it could be a sweatshirt, hard to tell. it's in the plastic you would buy it in. It's brand new And he goes, I always wp the panthers. You know what it is? It's the panthers, holding it up While in the bag. Did you just buy that? What are you You're not be like, look, this is from when I was twelve. I've always loved That is from five minutes ago. It's not good it's not does not serve well as a receipt of your fandom. Bam. It's why is it still in the plastic He was's Where did the man find a fresh Florida Panthers jersey in Vegas? Did they have an NHL store or did he make I have no idea Maybe he said I'll only wear that jersey if you guys also provide me a brand new Florida pant. I have no clue. It was just such a weird defense to go. See, I've always been a fan Tag still three points you start making demands of hockey teams and all of a sudden think two jer The better basketball player in the relationship. Pullice U All right, so that's what's happening in hockey. We've caught you up on basketball. We went through the Jackson Dart of it all. Can we please talk softball now? So This past weekend was the super regional which is where they decide the final eight teams that make it into the women's Coege softball World series, which kicks off Today, Thursday at noon U, Six of the eight of the top eight seeds. So Isabella, if they rank them, right, which they do Six of the top eight made it through Two upsets happened, so two of the top eight seeds did not make it through and the lower seeds made it instead U One of them was a really eventful series that you may have seen a little bit of online. This kind of blew up. and I'm going to let Brady that one and tell you the story of it. But to give a little context, the away team so the lower seed travels to The home. Were they all at the same home of the teams Yeah, Super regional goes to the highest seed hosts it. Right. So it's a three game series over the course of three days played consecutively and the winner of the series gets into into the worldld sereries. U So The one that Brady's going to tell us about was Texas teech. playing number three seat. It was eleven seed, Texas tech against number three seed. fl playing. at Florida So national National number eleven against national number three and we've had a lot of discussion about Texas teech and their star Nijah Cannedy the past. Mager may not even be the best player on this team anymore. This team is pretty great Last week they had crazy game on their own. They were down eight nothing to O miss with like two outs in the seventh. so one out. they come back and win this game already on a crazy run They're in Florida at Gainesville This game on Sunday, the third game was just nuts right out of the gate. It's seven seven after two innings. You just got Home runs flying out of the park. You have Texas techs swapping their pitchers in and out constantly crazy Because in softball, you know, pitchers play other positions and you can come in. you don't need as long to like warm up your arm as you do for baseball. You can go like day after day after day. But it's just so strange. They can go like in the fourth inning, we took out our pitcher and then in the sixth inning we put that girl back in a pitcher. and then in the seventh inning like it they can just kind of Do an arbitrary thing we're just used to not being able to do baseball. there's nothing wrong with it. True This game in And to set it up, Mia Williams is the star hitter for Texas teech She leads the team in home runs RBIs E. She is a transfer from Florida She is also the daughter and this name will ring to every millennial. She is the daughter of white chocolate Jason Williams A former Florida basketball player went on to play for Google Jason Williams wh White chocolate He was a legend at Florida. Legend at Florida. Legend in high school. He was Randy Moss' teammate on a high school in West Virginia. just They were making mix tapes. They had like the coolest friends Yeah, he was the kings and the heat. This was also the era of like the An one mix tapes and this man was thring behind the back passes and allyopes and Crl. He's on drafted high. Didn't they take him He up ten, I think. Yeah, I think he was eight. So Mia Wiams' daughter In her this series, her return against Florida that she had previously played for before transferring to Texas tech, she got beamed five times in five five times hit with the. They hit her with a. She was at bat. She got hit five times F times, including just like leading off game three. Right So game three, remember how he told you it was like seven, seven right away. Game three starts first pitch of the game. They hit her And it's the fifth time she's been hit in this series. And then after that her team just scored a bunch. And then you're like, oh yeah, that's set the tone. And then they respond. Florida scores a bunch and you're like, oh, we got like things were bubbling coming out of the dugout afterfter that first hit I pitch like Texas tech players were popping out of the dugout. They were ready to go. Jason Williams is in the crowd. He's after aert after one home run, he's yelling down into the floor to dugout. U from the crowd doing the gator chomp like back at them. There was a report at one point like somebody threw something at him and like his other child and he went after a fan. He got escorted out of the game and brought back Crazy Florida's coach ends up getting ejected for arguing balls and strikes in the fifth inning. Side note to this Wearing shorts And when you're getting ejected, it's really hard to take you seriously wearing shorts. I'm not used to managers and coaches. Where they like short shorts? What They like regular shorts, but it just gives like beer league vibes. Like I don't know why I give you the same logic you gave me on swapping the pictchers out. There's nothing inherently wrong with shorts. It's just you're not used to seeing I'm not used to. I'd rather that than them wear the uniform the girls are wearing Jason Williams came out after the game talking to the Gainesville paper and he accused Florida's coach of getting getting ejected from that game just so that he wouldn't have to face his daughter in the handshake line And then Lo and behold, this game ends. it's a run rule. It's sixteen seven. They med them Isabella. They beat them so bad they ended the game early And Florida did not come out to shake their hand after the game Florida did not line up for like the courtesy handsh. Now two there's two u u Schools of thought on this. Number one would say you always do the handshake line. obviously, it is a sign of respect. It's a game. It's how you leave it all on the field and you just show respect for each other and you show grace in the face of defeat And the other school of thought is that these teams were as close to fighting each other in an all out brawl as you get. And if they met at the field and had to shake each other's hand, something might have popped off. I tend to think you shake hands. You grow up, you put on a brave face I say that, I probably would be crying. I was thinking about this. whenever I watch softball and I see one of the girls will be crying in the line and I go, I'd like to think that wouldn't be me. That would absolutely be for sure. You just can't help it. It happens and you go like, please ignore that. I'm sobbing I'm being very strong. But I'd be sobbing in the line. But you go to the line. you shake hands and you move on from the game. and instead they were like, noah, we're not doing that. Their coach had already gotten kicked out and fans from either side are yelling at each other. It's further complicated by the fact that white chocolate to Florida. So people in Florida like and he's been like even as early as as recent as this season, he's been going to Florida basketball games. And so it's weird to see him like yelling at Florida, but then other people say like, yeah, because his daughter got hit five times. They were clearly targeting her So there are a lot of heated opinions about this online. I saw somebody even zoom in on footage to try to prove that Roth Rock, who was the pitcher on the mound for Florida that hit Mia with the first pitch, that her father was in the crowd doing the sucket gesture He was he kept doing suck it, you know, with your hands. Not appropriate And at very inappropriate. But I have no confirmation that that's her dad. I don't know. And so I just was like, you know, people are getting really upset about this, but there was like a lot of it was intense. And of course, this is a Holly Rad game. So Holly's got post game interviews with with Nija Kannedy and Mia Williams And they're just like, we're ready to go Like me is like my teammates had my back this game. we were ready for anything. Man This is like Possibly the most intense Wen's college W worldld series or super regional game I've ever seen. And like we were like an inch from this being an all out melee. We're ready to go. It was absurd. So Texas tech moves on and they will play in the first game of the Wor Series, which like I said, is today at noon. Now who they're playing against is Mississippi State and Mississippi state was unranked going into the super reggional and they played The number three ranked powerhouse Oklahoma Oklahoma has won What is it? four of the last five Championship games. They are a they are known Isabella. Oklahoma is like A softball school. It's like their number one And they were beat by this unranked team, Mississippi state. So Mississippi State has never been to the World Series ever And they're playing against a team that always goes. I think they were in like a nine year streak of making it to the World Series. The first game Mississippi state wins eleven to nine. They were down six to in the fourth thenen they they tied it up at six and then like in the very next half inning they're behind again, nine six. and then they rally from behind and they score five runs in the seventh to stun Oklahoma at home. Nobody thought This was going to happen Um The Sooners had a bunch of errors in that game, it was not their best game. Then game two, not so good for Mississippi State. Oklahoma wins seven to one. It was not They just couldn't get anything going. They couldn't score any runs. They scored that one run they got a little late in the game. It was not their best Then we go to the third game, game three Okay. and What a game it was. They shut them out. Fal score six nothing. Mississippi state Bulldogs beat Oklahoma on their home field. That's the first time they've been shut out on home field in over eleven years. An incredible pitching performance from Dellainey Everet. She had pitched thirteen and a third innings all season prior to Sunday. She didn't had not she'd been hurt, I think She hadn't played a lot and they put it on her And and she rose to the occasion. and it was her first start. Absolutely incredible performance to blank a team like that But absurd and crazy. and here's another thing I like about them. So I've been digging in on Mississippi state to see like is what is it that is working for them And Whereas Texas tech, Brady, their vibe is kind of like we used the transfer portal to bring in all of these players to create this powerhouse team that is poised to take down the former powerhouses Mississippi state is like vibes. It seems like the power of friendship. It feels like this is just a team that to hear any of the girls on the team talk about it. they're like, I've never jelled with a team like this. We are clicking. everyverybody knows what they have to do and everybody is doing it. And then they've got die So there's this guy. His name is Jim Stewart Allen And he was caught on the broadcast u holding broccoli stalks of broccoli and dancing in a women's sports everybody watches women's sports t shirt. He was this was at the weekend. What's the weekend before super reggionals? What's it called Okay, great, just regular old regionals, medium sized regionals. He was there and they I guess this is a thing he's done before. One time in like twenty twenty, he went viral for dancing with a potato at the One of those potato bowls Oh I see him. The Idaho potato bowl He went viral for that. So this is the thing he does. He just like goes to games and is supportive but is just kind of a he loves good vibes and friendship. He thinks sometimes sports get too serious. He has described broccoli as nature's palm palms Perfectly accurate to me. and And he also said it's very Pacific Northwesty. so he just likes to bring good vibes. The Mississippi State is the first team that has sort of adopted his thing brought it to the team. So they had on their bench bunch of bcol And like when somebody would get a hit, they would like wave the broccoli around. like they've sort of made it their rallying cry in their graphics announcing their wins. they've got like broccoli in the graphics. It's just like a fun reminder that like This is about being fun and having fun And you can also be good while having fun. Maybe we don't have to take it so seriously and be so mad all the time. Um And so I love that. I love that they've got Just a team that is I don't know, they seem like they really like each other. and this feels like a vibe that you could root for Isabella. So I'm hoping in this game that is tomorrow or today to listeners at noon. U Th these two teams are going to play each other. That's the only thing that kind of sucks. it is double elimination. So it is possible that one of them can lose and still make it But it's a harder path. And I hate that they're facing off right away against each other, but I also think what a cool matchup to see these two teams that kind of shocked everybody and just to like see how it goes. They also have u Mississippi State does. they have a pitcher U named Pjia Gould She's a senior. She transferred from Chattanooga And she was a recipient of the final golden ticket from the AUSL this year. Remember we talked about that being the thing they The professional league comes around and gives out She got it and everybody loves her. Apparently she's short. She doesn't throw the ball fast, but it moves. It's got crazy movement on it. If you believe her Instagram comment section, she is the I guess, Greg Maddox of softball. She's very, very good and people are excited about it. So they have a fun team and that's who I think I'm going to be rooting for because I like broccoliy. I like vibes. I love vib. They just seem like they're having fun and they like rallied to come from behind to this team in a way that nobody saw coming. So I love that. I think it's a great story. T great stories out of Sper reggional. so we will all be tuned in. The College World series occurs over the next I think it goes Thursday to Monday and then it'll be two Wednesday, Thursday, Friday are the three games, three days of the g. three game series for the final. Does that sound right? Because they do But I can't lock into If Chris were here he would tell you if Chris were here he'd tell you what to watch and how to watch it. But it's this is just a really fun you can have paid attention to zero college softball all year tune in for this because it's awesome. It's exciting. and these women are great. Also I didn't even mention Mississippi State's head coach was a star at Oklahoma So they also had that connection of like she was coaching against the team that made her the player that she was, Samantha Rickets. and And it just was a great series, and I'm excited to see where this goes Pret cool soft ball huh? Cool. prettyt cool Okay, let's take a quick break. and when we come back, we got a couple of things to really depress you.. We got some AI stuff that just an AI segment. And no, it's not Alan Iverson unfortunately So yeah, I know, we're gonna take a quick break. This is casuals, and we'll be right back casuals, the sports podcast gets cught up and everything happening in sports. We've got a little fun segment here. It's really not that fun. I was setting it up I realize it's really not that fun. but you know, AI It's here or whatever, and it's kind of leaking into everything and I think that's probably going to keep happening, I've started to take up the mantle of what's the opposite of artificial intelligence and that's human stupidity. And I think I'm going to start leaning into that. I think I'm going to start embracing moments of true human stupidity so that we can counteract AI because also I feel like we're using the word I intelligence Incorrectly, these things As of right now? smart. They're having a hard time in ways. And so I gathered a couple of AI stories that either made me want to jump jump somewhere that made me really scared O That made me laugh. Well ended on one I think that makes me laugh. I mean crazy, but let's go ahead and start with the scary ones. So Sam Altman We know who that is, right? He's the um, CEO, I assume of Is it open AI? which one is he? Cool. So Sam Altan was doing a He was talking somewhere Let's take a listen to what he said he sees the future of AI being like. See a future where Intelligence is a utility like electricity or water. and people buy it from us on a meter. and use it for whatever they want to use it for You see a future where we have to buy Intelligence from you on a meter Hell which If you don't hear all the different ways that that's terrifying That's like saying putting a premium. on On knowledge And then they're going to sell it ack comparing it to water. alsoso crazy. I don't think that should necessarily things you could be Sold back to us.be Mbe instead you could stop trying to sell us stuff because you also refuse to pay anybody. Where's anyone getting the money to buy the intelligence from you on a meter? Have you considered how this will affect anybody other than you, the guy in charge selling us back The human capability on a meter? Do you think it'll take coin donon't forget that all this intelligence is also going to make us run out of the water too That is right, sorry ye, I forgot to even mention. So that one's also gonna go. It just feels like these six people are in charge of the future of humanity and I didn't vote for any of them. When do we get to decide Wh Where do they get to back themselves into power this way? It's crazy. But this is a sports podcast. So let me move on to the Next really reallyally bleak and terrifying thing in AI that I saw this week So Isabella gohead and click on that link. This is a trend. This is a trend I saw amongst young influencers of different types. Sky Jackson was one of them. She used to be, I believe on She's act On Disney, I think, But she's also, I think deep in an AI hole that I don't even I can't even begin to understand from what I hear. and There's also a Piper Raquel who was a young child influener who has now become a little bit older, so you can imagine the type of content that she may be pushed in towards making. but these influencers are participating in a trend where they upload to their social media accounts AI generated photo. of what they would look like if they were, let's just say, from a different tax bracket and working a minimum wage job. So it's just these like Young girls known for being famamous, beautiful, young, and very online laughing about how weird they would look if they had to work at Walmart And I bumped into this Somebody was complaining about the normalization of the use of AI, and sure, I'm with you on that This I had to sit with this for a little bit that you are cosplaying And then sharing with your followers. This is so weird. What it would be like if you had to work a job that does not pay well and is hard. And it's just weird. It one of them captioned it, Okay, Walmart air. What I This made me feel so scared. Like what do you mean you're not noticing how like Deeply Deeply out of touch this is, not just the AI of it, but to use the water guuzzling program to generate a picture of what your life would look like if it was more like the people that followed you at a time when People are already criticizing influencers for like posting about the stuff that they get when other people can't afford. It's just I don't know, man. I did not like this. This one's two dystopian. canan we counteract it? Yes, let's counteract it with maybe the funniest thing I bumped into recently on sports Internet. Now you may have seen this post. I had taken a while to actually click and listen to it, but I guess there are sometimes fully AI generated content videos on YouTube just try to run through headlines in WWE and discuss them. It's actually an issue that's kind of personally close to me because I lost a friend who got duped by she was like, I'm gonna make AI slop. AI generated slop on YouTube and make passive income and I was like, that's not I'm theong person to talk to you about this. This is offensive to like literally what I do for a living, but anyway anyway, these are just like fully AI generated videos talking about WWE. Now I saw the caption was listen to this AI generation, try to pronounce and stumble over the acronym WWE. And I was like, this must be really funny. I can imagine the way it would like it probably must just try to, it must say like, well we. It must go like will we and then we laugh like haaha, stupid robot. That is so not what it does. And what it does do, Brdady, how long was the original clip It was like three minutes. It goes on for so long that we've had to cut it Okay, but this is an AI generated WWE video trying to pronounce the word kind of crucial, the acronym WWE Do you feel like you have to be there? That's the question And for a lot of people, the answer this year seems to be Quite, the show will happen. The stadium will likely fill up one way or another What what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what what Wh w w Wh whoa, wa, whoa wow, Wh wow, wow, w wow That I could Could not Oh me,'s going what what what? What? What? What Keeps going It does not get any closer. It it it sounds like it's asking it does not move on to the next you think at some point it would broken. You think at some point it would go like Moving on to the next word. whatever I did is over, next word, but no, it just keeps trying. And then what really freaked me out is if you have the wherewithal to stick with the clip and keep listening to it It devolves into and we're not gonna to play the whole thing. It goes on for way too long. It's very uncomfortable It devolves into Mouse noises? P't have a mouth. So what actually happening here, playay the clip Wh Wh Like It makes you feel really really good about maybe the robots aren't. It's so disturbing. I hate it s it. I hate it so fun. At one point you hear it go. Is it Sying me? You're the one who get pronounced WWE you dip shit? What are you talking about Whoa, whoa, whoa who! I fucking o my Godd, it haunts my nightmares. How is that real? How does it get posted No Wh who, who who what? Oh No that's the creepest part when he goes Also it tossed in a like. It went like who whoa whoa who.s so weird. mash for Ity this weekend Oh my God, brutal. That's the that's the end. There's one more. There's one more I just have to give an honorable mention to. We've mentioned Darren Revell here before on this podcast in the way he tweets and how it's just A mess. He's just he's like a sports business guy, but sometimes he's just a little out of touch with stuff. And I saw him retweet some random fans AI generated tribute. to Kyle Bush, who I told you we tragically lost. This is but it was the so Kyle raced for the for M andMs. That was like his main sponsor. He an M andM's had and a you know, the M andem's car or whatever. And it's just the four Is four humanoid M andM mascots, like standing AI generated, standing around a puddle that has a reflection of Kyle Bush in it as it rains and the sexy green one cries. And he said like this is such a touching moving tribute And I was like, I don't so weird. I don't think. If you're into that sort of thing and you want to watch the mascots of the Candy compomany mourn a racer that we lost too young, you can check that out A I made that for you. and Darren Revelde tweeted it. So Go find it there. U Okay, this has to be the end of the podcast because it's been too long. There is some stuff we didn't get to. We We do this every week and I finally decide, I think we make a segment where we go stuff we didn't get to, but we did see. But we just didn't have time for. okay? So I'm going to run through those Hit it. Number one, Josh Jacobs. This one Listen, he was arrested on Tuesday on five charges for a horrific domestic violence incident includluding domestic abuse, strangulation, suffocation. att the time of recording, we don't know enough about what is happening there. We're just not going to That sucks. I'm sure we'll talk about it We're not ready to do that today. So Not happening. US. soccer announcing their twenty six man roster for the twenty twenty six World Cup on Tuesday. I'm sure it'sull of of good boys. We're not going to talk about it because it's nothing really that surprising. I guess Diego Luna was kind of the big snub. He's been playing well. They were using him in all of their marketing materials and then he just didn't make it to the team. but again by his jersey on Fanatics whatever. I just don't we'll talk plenty about. their roster Then And I just need to be reminded how to say Christian's last name a couple times before the World Cup gets here. Okaykay? Pelicic? Pelic list. C I'll listen h, not going to talk about them, though Also not going to talk about the Houston Astroros. I'm so sorry that three of their pitchers combined on Wednesday to throw baseball's first no hitter since twenty twenty four. one of them Al limur, Santa was on his major leeague debut. veryer impressive Very cool Combined no hitters controversial opinion Recognize those. I't think that counts either. Br I love I love So anti teamwork. The whole premise of a dream so exciting is that it's one single person who's pitching this whole game Yeah, but if you can't make it past six innings, teammates pick you up zero hits zero hits You're shutting assisted no hitter. This is not what we're talking about. Yeah. We can't It's we're not getting together as a team. Now listen, you're talking to a lady who on her fridge has a a clipping from a newspaper from the Nroest Daily News bragging about my combined no hitter from I think my U twelve league when we beat Blackstone. But the reason it's up there is because not only did we combine for no hitter, me Karry Quask and Amanda Goldfarb, but also I think I was like Three for four or two for three at the play. I did a lot. I did a lot in that game Pret impressed with myself But combineed no hitter, that's nothing It doesn't mean anything. It's gott be one guy so we're not going to talk about it. We're also not going to talk about. I saw a story that Robert Sallo, the new head coach of the Tennessee Titans made it a top priority to remove all seed oils from the team facility Pers appreciated it. We're not going to talk about that because I don't K know what's going on there. Does anybody have any insight into seed oils? A they? I would have been like upgrade the run game Yeah. I wouldn't have made a top priority for certain. But I don't I hear I'm hearing a lot about seed oils and it kind of feels like snake oil in a type of way, you know, where it's like, is it really that are they really that bad for you I don't know. American Hearty Association says no. Oh All right, well there you go What does RFK say in his jeans doing pull ups He sa yester Yes, they're bad. So all right, Well we're not going talk about it. That's why because I don' I think this feels like much ad do about nothing. I missed the days when it was just every other week we decided eggs were good or eggs were bad. Yeah. This is too difficult. I don't know. seeed oils are in everything. What do you want me to do What do you want me to do P oil's got too low a burn point can't w olive oil, not a seed oil, right Right, but seed oils have a higher burn points where you fry things them.'s why you fry things in peanut oil. Pre prettyty we're not talking about it We're also not talking about Kendall George, who is the number thirteen prospect of the Dodgers who I guess severely injured his knee on Monday while avoiding The affiliate Tulsa Drillers bat doog after scoring a run. So he's he's down in the are they double A or triple A I believe that's double Minor leeague affiliate of the Dodgers. This is a top prospect for that team as if they need them As if they need them But he's a top prospect and I guess he heard himself trying the bat doog got in the way. Isabelle, are you familiar with the concept of a bat dog? No, I don't think so. They send the dog out to get the bat from the field and to bring it back to the dugout. And they're like Hly trained. it's a cute little shick that a lot of minor leeague teams do. but in this situation, I guess that dog the trainer probably got in the way of a player and the player trying to jump out of the way Did something do his knee? But we're not going talk about that because dogs don't do wrong stuff here. So wet one job The job was to fetch a stick. And did he to get out of his way? That's right. Like we don't acknowledge dog's wrongdoing. maybe, but I would need to be presented with more evidence. I don't know this Kendall George at all And we're also not going to talk about Joomazula. Jo Mazula, the Celtics coach was asked back in March about potentially winning coach of the year. And he said, quote, I don't need it. I think it's a stupid award And he won that stupid award on Tuesday. But if he thinks it's stupid, then so do we and we're not going to talk about it. So apologies to Joe Mizoua. Those are all the things We're not Do do you think Joe Mazoula brushes his teeth? I think that's toothpaste straight into the mouth I think he's gotut. Powdered toothpaste. I think he uses toothpaste, but doesn't use a brush and just goes like full fist onto each tooth with his hand. Yeah, that makes sense. Again, how I brush my dog's teeth Or he's one of those guys that's like I use a water pick and you're like, o,, that's crazy. Okay I love a water pick.e too, but I haven't really used one since I had braces. They were utch when I had braces. No Jesus didn't have a water pick. Joazuul was is not gonna to use a water pick. You don't know Jesus We're not gonna talk about it. Jesus had a water pick. Just let the record reflect. He turned that water pick into a wine pick. and now I'm back in Gys, that's it.
