      • “Great match, bad result... Roman Reigns winning is so boring.” [40:53]

  • Mike: “There was no like...the entire ring going down or somebody coming out with some kind of machinery. No pizzazz!” [52:19]

[Bobby Bones]

This is a podcast called 25 Whistles. Talking sports and they all wear a whistle yet Stupid. But why did you expect.

[Eddie]

It's a podcast called 25 Whistles.

[Miller]

25 Whistles.

[Eddie]

Hey, welcome to the show. Blow it up. Thank you. Hey, my wife gave me a haircut last night.

[Bobby Bones]

Really?

[Eddie]

It's a little one little trim. She's like, I don't want to do this. I was like, take the clippers. Gotta, like, clean my neck up and some stuff. She's like, I don't want to have any because if it's. There's no gain for me. If I mess it up, it's my fault. If I do good, I don't want to do it anyway. And so she did it. My neck feels good.

[Bobby Bones]

It looks good.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

I mean, it doesn't look like anything, right? That's how you know it was a good haircut.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a good haircut.

[Eddie]

My wife sat down and crushed it.

[Bobby Bones]

Has she ever.

[Eddie]

No, she didn't want to do it at all.

[Bobby Bones]

Is it money? Is everything okay?

[Eddie]

Like, no. That's why.

[Mike]

Side hustle.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you. You guys.

[Mike]

No, no, no. I gave my dog a haircut the other day.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Probably save money. That's what we're trying to do.

[Bobby Bones]

Because haircuts are expensive.

[Eddie]

Trying to get ahead right now. Saving up one day at a time, little by little.

[Public Investing Advertiser]

No debt.

[Eddie]

We have Miller on the phone. And so what's interesting about Miller is Miller is the person who offered Eddie the tickets to get to the Masters. I don't know how we get him on. Can we get him on? There he is. Hey, Miller.

[Miller]

Hey, Bobby.

[Eddie]

All right, cool.

[Bobby Bones]

So it's the first time I've heard Miller's voice.

[Eddie]

So, Miller, we were talking about you last week as Eddie said he was offered a ticket to go to the Masters by dm and it was you. And I said, can you get Miller on? He said, yes. So we have you here. I've never spoken to you. So first of all, how's your day? How's your day going?

[Miller]

My day is going pretty well. I mean, it's a Monday, but I work in a school, so fresh start. For the week.

[Eddie]

Nice.

[Kevin]

Where do you live?

[Eddie]

What state?

[Miller]

I live in South Carolina. I work in Augusta, Georgia.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah. Because it's right there on the line.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, is it? Okay.

[Eddie]

I didn't realize that Augusta is very close to South Carolina. Yes. Okay.

[Miller]

So, yeah, we actually live in North Augusta. So just across the river.

[Eddie]

How did you get tickets to the Masters to begin with?

[Miller]

So, to be honest with you, I'm not really sure how they do tickets now, but years ago, there was, like, a lottery system, and part of that lottery system was basically, like, lifetime tickets is how I'm understanding it. And so my family want them, and so we've had them for some time now, and we go. I've actually only been once. I'm not really a big golf fan, but being, you know, from the area I had, having never visited the national, wanted to go. So went a couple years ago with my wife for the first time, and then was actually planning to go back this year with a buddy of mine, and he wanted to go for Phil Mickelson. And then Phil Mickelson announced that he wasn't coming, and so my friend was like, let's just wait till next year. And so that's how I ended up sending that message to Eddie.

[Eddie]

I know they still do the lottery, but I didn't know it was lifetime.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that's legit.

[Eddie]

Yeah. That's wild. So the person that won the lottery, was it you, or did you say it was, like, your dad or something? I may have missed that.

[Miller]

No, I mean, it's my family, though.

[Eddie]

Okay, so you get these tickets, Miller.

[Bobby Bones]

Two tickets?

[Miller]

Yeah, two.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Eddie]

And what made you send Eddie a message out of everybody here on this show?

[Miller]

So I've listened to the show, I don't know, like, on and off for probably 15 years. And I remember, however many years ago, that Eddie started going through the, like, foster and adoption stuff, and that just resonated with me because my wife and I are foster and adoptive parents, and we have three children that we adopted out of foster care. And so that part of Eddie's story has just always, like I said, resonated with me, and I figured if I had any chance at getting his attention in a dm, that maybe Masters would be the way to do it. I'm glad that it worked out. I had lost hope there and was really shocked Saturday when I saw that message. We were on my way, actually. My son's birthday is today. He just turned 10, and he had a birthday party Saturday, and we were on our way to the trampoline Park. And I opened Instagram. I had a message from Ed, and I'm like, there's no way that this is real. And so we listened to the parts of the 25 Whistles podcast, and my kids were, like, freaking out in the background. They've watched the Breaking Bobby Bones show. They've listened to some stuff. They've seen you on American Idol. So they, like, think that this is the coolest thing in the world right now.

[Eddie]

Which would have been cooler if you'd invited me. Right? Right.

[Bobby Bones]

This is where I'm confused, Miller.

[Miller]

You're notorious about not really getting in your DMs. And so I figured my best chance

[Eddie]

I would have seen anybody would have been Eddie for sure.

[Bobby Bones]

Call Miller. So let me get. Let me get this story straight. So you use the Masters to bait me?

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

What was he gonna do with you?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't understand. So, like, you wanted to be friends, so you'd use the Masters thing.

[Eddie]

It's a pretty. That's a pretty good base.

[Miller]

So when my friend backed out, what ended up happening? We were going all day Saturday, and when he decided he didn't want to go, I didn't have any interest in going for the whole day, but the folks that I was giving the tickets to weren't going until, like, closer to lunchtime, so I thought I would go for the morning. And I was just like, okay, this will be cool. Let me see if I can get Eddie. I feel like he would like to go. I would love to hang out with

[Eddie]

him for a little while.

[Miller]

He'd be open to it. And so I sent a message, really, as a joke to myself. And then, you know, Masters came and went, and I didn't hear anything of it, so I just kind of assumed, okay, well, that, you know, that's not going to happen. And then it just happened out of the blue. Got that message back. But, yeah, I mean, again, I just. I. It feels. This feels ridiculous to say. I'm aware of how ridiculous this probably sounds, but y' all always say on the radio show, like, you put your life out there, and so it really does feel like. Which. This is so dumb, but it feels like I know y' all because I've listened for so long, and, I don't know, just thought it would be cool to hang out with Eddie for a little while.

[Eddie]

Well, I can tell you from experience, it is cool to hang out with Eddie for a little bit.

[Bobby Bones]

Thank you.

[Eddie]

I do it all the time. He's my number one choice. Yeah. So you made a Good. Good call there. And he didn't. Honestly, he didn'. See it till after.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Like a week and a half after. Yeah, I. I mean, to be honest, though, Miller, I probably wouldn't have been able to make it just because it was late.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

As a late invite. So. So don't feel bad.

[Miller]

Well, but next year, now we can. We can plan for next year, Eddie.

[Bobby Bones]

So since this is a lifetime deal, like.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, let's. Let's stay in touch. This could be fun, Miller. We could be friends, buddy, one day.

[Eddie]

So we thought it might have been a scam. It's not a scam. That's. That's really cool, Miller. We really appreciate you listening, and thank you for coming on with us and

[Bobby Bones]

being so cool, and nice work on the fostering and adopting thing. Dude, that's awesome.

[Miller]

Yeah, likewise. I appreciate you using your platform the way you do.

[Eddie]

What about if someone was to have been adopted? Like, would that affect. Instead of, you know, Eddie's been adopted

[Bobby Bones]

and, you know, I'm not adopted.

[Eddie]

I know. But what if somebody was to have been adopted? Would that have mattered at all? And who you're inviting. Because I was adopted.

[Miller]

I know, I know. Again, I didn't think that there was a chance that you were gonna see anything in a.

[Eddie]

In a DM I keep making about me, even though I wouldn't have gone.

[Mike]

We could be friends.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Miller]

You know, Bobby, I did want to tell you congratulations, though, on the baby, because being a dad is the most incredible thing that you'll get to experience, and you've experienced a lot of awesome things.

[Eddie]

Well, thank you very much, Miller. Well, I hope you have a great day at work today, and I appreciate you listening and being. Being so cool and. Yeah, hopefully we'll get to meet you in person one day. Hopefully you guys can figure it out next year.

[Miller]

Yeah. Y' all have a good day. Eddie, you know how to reach me.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, Miller. See you, buddy.

[Eddie]

There he is. The great Miller in South Carolina slash Georgia. Yeah, you remember going in. Right on the line. South Carolina.

[Bobby Bones]

Gosh, dude, I don't remember. I remember we got to Augusta, and we drove around a little bit and kind of checked it out, and then we played a show that night. Then didn't we drive back that night?

[Eddie]

That night? Same night we did.

[Kevin]

We slept.

[Eddie]

Yeah, we slept. And they drove back, and it wasn't even a bus with, like, a. It was just a car.

[Bobby Bones]

Is it a car? It's a rental car.

[Eddie]

Van. Like, a rental van. And Justin the suit drove back. Justin, And Tim.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Okay. Speaking of golf, here. You're going to play golf on May 2nd?

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Kevin]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Yeah, May 2nd. I was like, wait, what's today? Yeah, May 2nd. My buddy hit me up last week, and he's like, hey, we got a couple of guys going out. We got an extra spot. I haven't been since surgery, and I got the clearance, so I'm good to go. May 2nd. Going down.

[Eddie]

How'd you know that?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, he comes up and says, like, May 2nd. Big day. And I'm like, what are you talking about? He's like, I'm playing golf on May 2nd. I'm like, dude, that's like, in a month. And then I realized, yes, it's important to him because his rehab is done.

[Mike]

Yeah, I haven't. I haven't been able to play in

[Eddie]

six months, but I also thought he

[Bobby Bones]

was going to be like, do you guys want to come?

[Mike]

Well, I mean, I would, of course, but I didn't start this. I just.

[Eddie]

I got your lane. You're giving a crap for getting free clubs, and now all of a sudden you're, like, wanting to play golf.

[Bobby Bones]

The Cobras.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Mike]

So he.

[Bobby Bones]

Probably.

[Mike]

Because he wants to use my gloves. That's probably why.

[Eddie]

That's fun. I almost went to the driving range this weekend. I got a little wet. I probably wouldn't have, but I gotta go. I haven't hit a ball since last summer and have to play in that golf.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I heart. I heart country.

[Eddie]

Like.

[Mike]

Wait, is that when you're going to Texas?

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey.

[Mike]

Oh, wow.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a May 2nd.

[Mike]

Wait, that's.

[Eddie]

It's next weekend.

[Mike]

See, you couldn't have gone anyways, Eddie.

[Bobby Bones]

You're right. That's May 2nd. Hey, we're also playing golf on May 2nd.

[Eddie]

I don't know if that's the day

[Bobby Bones]

we're going first or whatever day that is.

[Eddie]

Our old intern, Katie, who used to be on the show. Remember her?

[Kevin]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

You talked to her?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I got an update.

[Eddie]

I talked to her, too.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh. Oh, she. Did she text you? She call you?

[Eddie]

I've talked to her a couple times. She's working news station.

[Mike]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, well, then you don't need an update then.

[Eddie]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

I figured you'd update me because she texted me. I'm like, what's up, Katie? And she was like, hey, just want to give you a little update. Graduated from Arkansas, and I got a job at Tyler. She's a reporter. Mostly does sports reporting, but she also does some news on the weekends. Yeah, Anchors once in a While. And I'm like, that's great. I'll tell the guys. And she's like, please do tell everyone I said hello.

[Eddie]

Well, maybe everybody but me.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. So, Kevin, she says hello.

[Mike]

Well, I follow on Instagram, so I see all this stuff, too.

[Eddie]

Oh, you do? Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You're updated. Mike, did you know?

[Kevin]

I did not know. Thank you for the update.

[Eddie]

Mike's the one then. So if you want to have a college football mascot at your wedding, which would be cool, right? That would be awesome.

[Mike]

Yeah, that would be sweet.

[Eddie]

So here you go. Do you guys want to know how much it would cost? Let's see. I have the number 10, Kansas, big J and baby J. 550 bucks an hour plus mileage. Is that a real animal? It can't be a real hawk, right? It's got to be the big.

[Bobby Bones]

It's got to be the stuffy guy.

[Eddie]

I wonder if it's all that, because. I'll tell you why. Because Clemson, they're at number one, the most expensive.

[Mike]

Wow.

[Eddie]

It says the tiger and tiger cub. It's $10,000 an hour for that. That's got to be the real tiger, right?

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Miller]

Wow.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Mike]

And a cub.

[Eddie]

The tiger and Tiger cub.

[Bobby Bones]

That's not the guy in the suit.

[Eddie]

I don't know.

[Mike]

I hope not.

[Bobby Bones]

So. So for Arkansas, you guys have a real pig, like a big razor.

[Eddie]

We wouldn't bring the boar. We actually have an in cost. We have a mascot.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

In costume.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Eddie]

The one that it is, I would assume.

[Mike]

What about having the Longhorn in Texas?

[Eddie]

You can do that.

[Bobby Bones]

Evo.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Ricky softball. Ricky runs that. The Tiger and Tiger.

[Kevin]

So it's someone in a mascot costume.

[Eddie]

$10,000 an hour.

[Kevin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

That's too much. I feel like you get a better deal if you just go rent one of those and just get a buddy to be in it.

[Eddie]

You can't rent that costume.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, you can't?

[Mike]

Something like it.

[Eddie]

Maybe you can make one.

[Mike]

Exactly. It's close enough.

[Eddie]

Crazy. $10,000 an hour.

[Bobby Bones]

That's too much.

[Eddie]

Auburn, Aubby, the Tiger, $3,000 base fee, plus additional costs. Michigan State. Sparty. 1500 bucks per appearance.

[Bobby Bones]

That guy's cool looking. Like he's. He's got a real face and everything. Where's the Trojan helmet?

[Eddie]

It's a real human.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, no. He's fluffy.

[Eddie]

But I know. I see.

[Bobby Bones]

His face is, like, really defiant.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

The duck at Oregon, 1500 bucks.

[Bobby Bones]

Cool looking.

[Mike]

Yeah, that'd be cool.

[Eddie]

Texas, it's not Bevo. You can't get Bevo though, but Texas hook them. They're. It's all. This is all mascot now, as far as, like, in the. In the costume. 750 bucks an hour.

[Bobby Bones]

Dang.

[Eddie]

Indiana, the Hoosier mascot. 700 bucks per wedding if you want it for that. I don't know what that is, though. What's a Hoosier?

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like. Kind of looks like the Buckeye dude if I'm trying to, like, visualize it.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah, right. Bison. Can I see him? Hoosier, the bison. Oh, that's not it. Hold on.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, no. That looks like a buffalo with striped pants.

[Eddie]

I don't. Hold on. He would get there, and I would say, wrong school.

[Mike]

This isn't Colorado.

[Eddie]

Yeah, exactly. It. Maryland. Testudo.

[Bobby Bones]

Whoa.

[Eddie]

700 bucks an hour.

[Mike]

That's a turtle.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know.

[Mike]

Turpin, right?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, they're Turpin.

[Eddie]

I mean, I know their mascot, but, like, the Hoosiers is a bison. I don't know how that happens. Brutus the buckeye. 700 bucks per appearance.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go.

[Eddie]

And this has all got to be in town, too, right? Or, like, drivable.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, because it said gas prices.

[Eddie]

But this is says per appearance for Brutus and Buckeyes. But then you got to pay for a flight or something. And I want him if I'm flying him here. He needs to be in the costume to hold over. Don't bring the costume in a bag.

[Bobby Bones]

Security.

[Eddie]

You come and you wear the costume.

[Mike]

You are the mascot all weekend.

[Eddie]

As soon as you come on the clock, you're the mascot. Purdue Pete, 600 bucks an appearance. Arkansas, 500 bucks for an hour.

[Mike]

Oh, okay. See, that's like.

[Bobby Bones]

All right. You could do that.

[Eddie]

That's from the sicko Sentinel.

[Miller]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Brutus, the Ohio State.

[Mike]

I went to a wedding that had the USC band one, so that was pretty cool. The whole band, like a small amount. Like the drum line, walk down the aisle and everything. That was pretty sweet.

[Eddie]

That's pretty cool.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And they had their, like, Trojan.

[Mike]

Yeah. All dressed up, dude. Yeah, it was awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, dude, basketball. Telling you, I'm not making these stories up.

[Eddie]

Oh, you got another one.

[Bobby Bones]

Every single time we have a basketball tournament, something goes down. Like, something. Parents fighting, whatever. This time there were no parents fighting. But we're watching the game, and all of a sudden some guy runs because I was sitting, like, courtside, like, just right in the front. Never sit up high or anything.

[Eddie]

Thank Jack Nicholson.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, they're expensive seats. And so this guy starts running down the bleachers and he runs on the court and taps the referee during the game, says, hey, stop the game. Stop the game. Somebody's hurt up on the bleachers. So I turn around and there's a lady, like, laid out and about three people around her. And this is small town Tennessee. Like, middle of nowhere and so small. The way small town reacts at things is really funny. There's people yelling all over the get her some ice. Get her a soda. Rob a Dustin, she needs an aspirin. And then at some point, because, like, There are already three people, somebody was already on the phone, 911. And the guy on the phone gets up and says, I need a defibrillator. So we're the ones. We're in a high school.

[Eddie]

And he was. He was told that by 911 by

[Bobby Bones]

whoever was on the phone.

[Eddie]

Well, hopefully 911.

[Bobby Bones]

And so my wife and I were like, this is our chance. Like, so we go, let's find a defibrillator. So we run down the hallways.

[Eddie]

What's your chance? What do you mean it was your chance?

[Bobby Bones]

Because we felt like we're kind of in the way. There's already four or five people dealing with it and everyone else just watching. And then when he said, I need a defibrillator, he looked at me and my wife like, really? Like we're the closest one to the door. So we're like, well, let's go find one. So we run down the hallways of the school, busting doors. We find the defibrillator, take it up to the guy. They start ripping her shirt apart, putting the pads on there. And I'm like, oh, my gosh. And me. Meanwhile, guys, the game has halted and all the players, all the kids are just staring. And my wife goes, can we get these kids, like, out of here? Turn them around or something so they're not watching this.

[Eddie]

So dramatic happening in the gym.

[Bobby Bones]

All happening. So they put the. The defibrillator on. We hear a loud. It starts beeping and beeping and beeping. Finally, paramedics show up. And then turns out she had high blood pressure.

[Eddie]

Oh. The machine then said, don't shock her.

[Kevin]

Correct.

[Bobby Bones]

So they had it on her, and it was like, do not. I think it's. The words are like, do not, not detonate. That's like a bomb. But whatever it is, but initiate it

[Eddie]

shocks on its own, Right?

[Bobby Bones]

It'll tell. You have to hit a button.

[Eddie]

Oh, you do.

[Bobby Bones]

It'll tell you, like, heartbeat detected. Do not. Do not initiate shock. And so they didn't. Thank God. And turns out she was just. She had high blood pressure and she passed out. She was out. I mean, people were yelling her name out. And she was there with her granddaughter. And her granddaughter's like. Her name is. Whatever her name was. Say it was Betsy. I don't know what it was, but they're like, betsy, can you hear me? Betsy. Betsy. Don't go anywhere, Betsy. Like, stay with us, Betsy. Dude, it was crazy, but.

[Eddie]

And now she's topless.

[Bobby Bones]

Exactly. And then finally, the paramedics, who know what they're doing, they cover her. Like, they have, like, trash bags. The whole gym's not staring. But it's a weird thing, man, because, like, in an emergency like that, people really don't know what to do. You know, the guy on the phone is just doing whatever, you know, 911 is saying, but everyone else is like, fan her. Get her a Pepsi. Like, what?

[Jacob Goldstein]

So

[Bobby Bones]

we need a defibrillator. I mean, dude, luckily we didn't shock her. Like, she. She wasn't having a heart attack. She was still with us.

[Eddie]

Lucky someone didn't go. I don't trust it. Shock her anyway, right?

[Mike]

Did one guy, like, take the initiative and just like, basically run the whole thing?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, there was a nurse. One of the parents was a nurse, and he kind of, like, took charge.

[Eddie]

Golly, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Dude, it's always something at these tournaments.

[Eddie]

Did she come to and walk off or anything and they give her a clap?

[Bobby Bones]

No, they put on a stretcher and like.

[Eddie]

Oh, stretch it around.

[Bobby Bones]

They stretched her out for sure.

[Eddie]

You sure she lived?

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. Yeah, we got. We got word later that she was okay.

[Eddie]

I. Like you said, we thought it was our shot. Yeah, like, you're waiting for your. Well, waiting for your big chance.

[Bobby Bones]

I say that because really in that, in that moment, you don't know what your role is here. Like, you just feel like you're one of the starers doing nothing, you know? And it feels weird. Just like, what's going on? Like, are she okay? Are they doing whatever they need? So when they looked at me and my wife and said, we need a defibrillator, we're like, finally we're at some kind of use around here.

[Eddie]

If that happens to me in this, wherever I am, you guys got to pull out the defibrillator. Will you leave the shirt over my stomach? Because I'm a little.

[Mike]

For sure.

[Eddie]

I'm a little sensitive. We'll help you out. Especially now because I haven't been able to work out as much. Yeah, cover that. The dad. I don't really have the confidence I had even a year ago. So, like lay stuff over the stomach and then go to town. Because I'm sure people be tick tocking it, you know, taking pictures. Just cover that part of me up.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, that's another thing to do. That's another thing too. Like, I know a video like that would go so viral. Like, I really do. But like, you thought about it.

[Mike]

I mean, that was your moment.

[Bobby Bones]

I thought about it, but like, there's no way, dude, I can. I can do that.

[Eddie]

You're right.

[Bobby Bones]

But a video like that, dude, would go viral.

[Mike]

Don't ever do that.

[Eddie]

Especially if you go around everybody's yelling stuff. Put a pickle in her mouth.

[Bobby Bones]

Dude, I'm shocked.

[Eddie]

Massage her scalp.

[Bobby Bones]

Get her a diet Coke.

[Mike]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

What's that gonna do?

[Eddie]

The fact that she's okay is great.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. Yeah, that's why we're laughing.

[Mike]

We need like a TV series on these games every week.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm telling you, I wanna do a documentary.

[Eddie]

You should just be filming all the time at these things. But you want to do a lot of stuff.

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, honestly, it'd be a lot of work to do a documentary, but I mean, and a lot of money. I think a documentary on AAU parents, not the AAU tournaments. Well, whatever. The parent life of these tournaments is just insane. Dude. I feel like all these parents are just ruining it for their kids.

[Eddie]

So maybe something like that that already exists.

[Bobby Bones]

Is there.

[Eddie]

I don't know. Everybody here has Google a minute ago. And I was like, hey, someone look this up. Nobody went to their computers, so I have to get on my phone in the midd of like talking at the same time. I do not know.

[Bobby Bones]

You're. I mean, you're probably right. There's probably something.

[Kevin]

There's a documentary called Trophy Kids.

[Public Investing Advertiser]

I was just about to say.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but see, was that about the kids? I don't care about the kids.

[Kevin]

It's about the parents.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, okay. That'd be good.

[Eddie]

What's it on Tubi?

[Kevin]

No, it's on HBO.

[Eddie]

New or old?

[Kevin]

It's old from 2013. Overbearing parents in sports.

[Bobby Bones]

We need to update. We need an updated one.

[Eddie]

Trophy Kids too or.

[Bobby Bones]

Because I'm telling you, every weekend, like, even this weekend, there was no fight. But like, there was a parent coach fight last weekend that bled into this weekend. Oh. And we're like, the parent was just like, if that coach even tries to talk to me, I'm gonna punch him in the face. They even said like that that ambulance would have had to take two people.

[Eddie]

That's how I feel about when we go to IRA country. There's certain person there, if I see them, ain't gonna be pretty.

[Kevin]

Shut up.

[Bobby Bones]

Really?

[Eddie]

Yeah. They it be pretty.

[Bobby Bones]

Luke. Bryan.

[Eddie]

No, no. Luke and I. Luke and I are good friends, Bobby.

[Bobby Bones]

Why do you hate me?

[Eddie]

I. I told.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you serious?

[Eddie]

I'm not a fighter and I. I'm not going to go swing on somebody anyway. It's work. I'm the most professional person ever. But if so and so even comes up and says a word to me, it will be uncomfortable for everyone because again, I'm not going to swing. Yeah, maybe it'll be very uncomfortable for everyone. Mike knows who it is.

[Mike]

Oh, yeah. Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Will you give me a heads up if it does?

[Eddie]

Like I told again, our boss, who's over the whole format, I was like, you should make sure this person does not come around me because again, who am I going to beat up? Nobody. It ain't about that. But if they come up and say a single word to me, it is going to be so awkward for everyone there.

[Mike]

Dang.

[Eddie]

Oh, you don't know who it is?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't and I don't even. I can't think of who I think it is. Like, I don't know if anyone can't

[Eddie]

think of who you think.

[Bobby Bones]

I like. I don't even know of anyone that like. Yeah, like a suspect. Oh, who could this be?

[Mike]

You guys got room for one more for the trip or.

[Eddie]

No, you gotta play golf.

[Bobby Bones]

Dang it.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You already have a tee time.

[Eddie]

Yeah, man, you're rubbing it in.

[Mike]

I just. If you needed a bodyguard, you know,

[Eddie]

now all of a sudden you want to go. I don't. I don't need a bodyguard because first of all, I do think I whoop this person too. But I'm not a fighter. I'm not gonna fight. There's not gonna be a fight.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so it's a smaller person.

[Eddie]

No, it's not. No, it's not a smaller person.

[Bobby Bones]

Weaker.

[Eddie]

I don't know. Who do you think went on a fight, Mike?

[Kevin]

Oh, you for sure. Your rage alone, which is. It didn't matter what size this person was. Your rage alone would destroy your rage

[Bobby Bones]

towards this person because you don't get. You don't have rage.

[Eddie]

I don't have rage.

[Bobby Bones]

That's not your personality trait.

[Kevin]

But you have so much rage with this person. I feel rage.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, you too, Mike?

[Eddie]

Yeah, we'll leave it there.

[Bobby Bones]

Dang, dude, I didn't know this.

[Eddie]

You do. I'd spent a while, but you do. But it was to the point of. I told Rod. I was like, hey, if it. My advice would be to keep this person away from me. I'm not going to go up to them, but if they come to me and they say anything to me, it's going to be very uncomfortable for everybody around because. Because I'll probably say a few things that will not be nice and everybody be like, what the heck's happening? Don't want to film me like you want to film Betsy. I'll have that camera rolling. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's self conscious.

[Bobby Bones]

Leave his shirt on. Leave his shirt. Don't show his belly.

[Eddie]

You can rip the top down.

[Kevin]

Yeah, yeah.

[Eddie]

Or if you don't take my shirt off, cover my stomach.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, you're right, though, because people are just exposed, man. Whenever.

[Eddie]

I don't want that crap out.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I agree. I work hard.

[Eddie]

I did. Now that I haven't for a while, I'm kind of embarrassed about it. Okay, so there you go. There's that.

[Eddie]

we should do is we should clip this part. We put our whole. This whole show up. If you want to watch it on YouTube, you can. We don't have, like a big following or anything on YouTube for this show, but it's what, at 25 whistle sports on YouTube. And so the whole show goes up. But we should clip this as its own part here because Mike and I now are gonna. Are gonna review WrestleMania.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yes.

[Eddie]

So we're gonna review Wrestlemania. Anybody watch it except Mike and I?

[Bobby Bones]

Clips? Just clips.

[Mike]

I saw some stuff from battles, socials, and that was it.

[Eddie]

Okay, that doesn't count. They did show night one the first hour on ESPN2, and they showed the night two first hour on ESPN, which is pretty cool. Okay, so night one. I did not think night one was very good overall. And I didn't think night one was very good even before I saw the Internet say night one wasn't very good. Mike, what was your thoughts?

[Kevin]

Yeah, night one was Bullens. Let's like, as far as excitement level, it never was exciting whatsoever. It was so safe and very generic.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

And there's so many commercials, and not only commercials, because I'm not going to be a guy that hates when people got to make their money because they put so many commercials on a morning show. It drives me crazy, more so than any other show. And then it's like, oh, this month you're down. And I'm like, dude, you got. We have 58 minutes of commercials and two minutes of me just, you know, going, okay, here's a tease. That. I mean, that's it. So I get it. You got to make your money. But I'm so used to pay per views being no commercials. I think that's what it is.

[Kevin]

There's no way for the show to build momentum because it's like 10 minutes of entrances. The match is like 10 to 12 minutes, and then the rest is ads.

[Eddie]

And I was looking at the fight, the wrestling, the match times. Most of them are like six, seven minutes. Ten minutes is generous.

[Mike]

Ten minutes.

[Eddie]

Yeah. So that. And then again, not gonna hate on people making their money.

[Bobby Bones]

I get it.

[Eddie]

Publicly traded company now as well. TKO is. But they. There's like six advertisements in the ring at once.

[Mike]

Like, while the match is going on.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it's not on the mat, one in the middle. There's like three or four circling that they have. They had them on the turnbuckles for the first time. They had them on the outside of the ring.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow.

[Kevin]

They even incorporated them into the intros. The people walking down, it's like, oh, he's wearing a helmet from Mortal Kombat 2.

[Mike]

Really?

[Eddie]

What? I get it. I'm just so used to pay per views because they're not pay per view anymore. They're called ples, which is premium live event. I'm so used to those and going into them. It's all dedicated to what the event is. And now it's just a lot of commercials, so it's weird, too. I'm gonna talk about the bad stuff first. I have an ESPN account that doesn't get you crap. So you had to watch it on the first hour on ESPN2 or on ESPN. ESPN. But then I had to buy an ESPN unlimited plan.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that's extra.

[Eddie]

Because plus isn't unlimited. Plus is just a little more. Unlimited means forever, I guess.

[Bobby Bones]

But I'll tell you what. What else you can get with unlimited, you can get the. The camera angle on basketball games. The camera just above.

[Eddie]

I'm fine with a limit. I'll be honest with you.

[Mike]

Plus is fine.

[Kevin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't get a different angle, man, than everyone else.

[Eddie]

So I. I did buy the unlimited, but then also, that's for television. If I'm on my phone, I'll just vpn. I think I VPN in Puerto Rico. I watched it from Puerto Rico and then watch it on Netflix.

[Bobby Bones]

That's funny.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Because on Netflix, as long as you've been everywhere else in the world on Netflix, you can watch WrestleMania.

[Bobby Bones]

And that was commercial free on Netflix, sort of.

[Eddie]

For the most part. It would be like, we'll come back and they'll do a countdown clicker, but no commercials. But then also, like, WrestleMania had their own commercials. Hey, Mike, did it remind you of the Boys a little bit? Meaning?

[Kevin]

Oh, yeah.

[Eddie]

During the commercials, they would have the wrestlers doing commercials for, like, Snickers or Slim Jim. Yeah.

[Kevin]

Drew McIntyre was doing, like, an app or some kind of game, mobile game.

[Eddie]

And, like, Cody Rhodes is doing, like, tea. But they look like superheroes because they're wrestlers. They're with normal people, and they're like, yeah, YouTube. And on the boys, one of my favorite shows, the superheroes do the commercials with the.

[Bobby Bones]

That's funny.

[Eddie]

Yeah. And they're. They're selling, like, super, super person T.

[Mike]

So it's different than, like, if you're watching the NFL game and Jamar Chase is doing a commercial different.

[Eddie]

Because Jamar Chase isn't in full outfit.

[Mike]

True.

[Eddie]

And, like, costume. And it's just. Yeah. Different.

[Mike]

Gotcha.

[Eddie]

Different. It's fun. Listen, I love them. I'm not gonna say I didn't have a good time watching it, but I felt night one was semi disappointing. But it was only night one, and that was what got me to night two. My wife asked me, hey, who won WrestleMania? And I said, because she saw that I was watching it, she didn't know it was two nights, first of all. So I'm watching it the first night, and I got to. I watched every match. Now, some of them had to watch my phone. Some I watched from television. Some I was, like, moving around, helping the baby, but I kept it on. Some I was watching during Arkansas softball. Like, had it on the phone while it was up on the screen. And so when night two of WrestleMania was on the screen and my wife walked in, she was like, we're watching this again. I was like, no, it's night two. She's like, oh, my God, there's two nights of this. I say, yeah. And then at the end of the night, last night, after it was over, the final match, baby's asleep. We're laying there just talking for a few minutes. She goes, goes, who won WrestleMania? I said, what do you mean? She goes, who was the winner of WrestleMania? Like, who won the whole thing? I was like, it's not really like that. She's like, there's not king of WrestleMania after the thing, the champ. I said, it's not a tournament, per se, at all, even. And she was like, oh. I thought, like, at the end, there was, like, one. One. One Mr. Mania or something. I said, no, they're just a bunch of individual matches.

[Mike]

That's more like Royal Rumble, right? Yeah, that's one.

[Eddie]

You know what? That's interesting because she did watch Royal Rumble with me before, and maybe that she was getting that there's a champ

[Bobby Bones]

at the end of that one.

[Eddie]

Well, of the. Yes. There's a men's and a women's and 30 people in the ring.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Eddie]

And then one ends and they get a match at WrestleMania. I don't know that she connected those two, but if so, that's interesting.

[Mike]

Probably, like, subconsciously she was thinking of the Rumble.

[Eddie]

Yeah. She was like, who won WrestleMania? So I was telling her. She's like, I'm good. Never mind. But she just thinks. And it is. If you don't know about it, if you're not in on it, it. It does look stupid. And I mentioned this morning on the radio show, like whenever the, the. The demon. Yeah. Comes down and there's a like a beating heart on the ground. And he looks very demonic. Obviously he's a demon. Yeah. And he comes down. It's a little trick. And then she also when she watches, she'll be like, that punch wasn't real. And I'm like, no, crap. Punches aren't.

[Kevin]

Aren't real.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

But then they'll like flip and land you like, oh, that's crazy. I'm like, yeah, that's how they break their neck. You know, you got to do that stuff. So what was your favorite match of the whole thing?

[Kevin]

Of the whole thing. I love Rhea Ripley. Whenever she's on screen, I just can't look away. I think she's the most entertaining wrestler right now. So that match was great.

[Eddie]

So she did win the women's championship match versus Jade Cargill.

[Mike]

Yeah, I do know her. Yeah, Ripley. She's awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah.

[Eddie]

And she's like like full goth looking. Yeah. Like all tattoos, face pierced. But she's what they would call like a baby face. A good, good guy.

[Mike]

Oh, okay.

[Eddie]

For sake of this.

[Mike]

I was like, she doesn't have a baby face. But now I know what you mean.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah.

[Kevin]

Baby face.

[Eddie]

Heels. Heels are the bad guys.

[Mike]

I know what a heel is.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, baby face is the opposite of a heel.

[Kevin]

Baby face.

[Eddie]

Good guy.

[Mike]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

A face we're learning.

[Eddie]

Yeah. So yeah, she's definitely. We'll call it the good guy. I think the best actual, man. They're two favorite matches, but I'll do this. I think the best match though was the Roman Reigns CM Punk match. That was an awesome match I was in. They were given that. They're all both dedicated. I think Roman Reigns winning was so boring. Like, he's the champion. Who cares? He's had the title six times already. It just feels like rinse, repeat. I thought the match was good. I did not like how it ended, but I do think the match was so good. It. It was something that elevated both nights completely because I did think, man, CM Punk went hard, right?

[Kevin]

Yeah. Great match, bad result. I think Roman Reigns is just the most like, he's the most least interesting superstar they have. Like him winning, he's just like, okay, like, who cares?

[Eddie]

I agree. My favorite match was Obafemi and Brock Lesnar. It started night two and both of these dudes are huge, big chunks of meat. Both of them like Brock. Brock is, you know, 6, 4, 2, 90 and you know how large he is.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, he's all. How old is he now?

[Eddie]

He's probably in his mid-40s.

[Kevin]

48.

[Eddie]

He's 48.

[Kevin]

Brock Lesnar?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

He's older than I am.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Still looks great. He comes down and Obafemi is, you know, 6, 4, 3, 10. And so rock is this huge. Brock is this huge white dude. Obafemi is this huge black dude. And they are going at it and I'm thinking this is going to be the worst match ever or the best match ever. Is a really awesome match. Now they're so large. Guys like that that are that size can't do 10, 15, 20 minute matches.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Kevin]

Pretty quick.

[Eddie]

Yeah. I think the whole match was six minutes.

[Bobby Bones]

Exhausting.

[Eddie]

But they had Brock Lesnar put obafemi over, meaning Oba 1. And then Brock supposedly retired at the end. Took his boots off, like crying. I don't know if he really retired. Seems a bit like. It seems a bit like an angle, but overfimme is awesome. Yeah. I mean he's like, they call him that, but he's like the next big thing, I think because he is so large and he's so athletic. I think he threw the shot put at Alabama.

[Mike]

Yeah, he did. We were looking at it the other day actually with battle. I know that.

[Eddie]

So that I thought that was one probably my favorite match. I'm not saying the best match, but my favorite match because I thought it was great that Brock Lesnar put him over so much because it's hard to get people to buy into like the person that's the next person. That's awesome. But everybody's in an obafeme. They just had to get somebody to put him over. Mike, what about you?

[Mike]

Next one up.

[Kevin]

Do you think he fake retired though?

[Eddie]

Yeah, I do. Because when he leaves his shoes out,

[Kevin]

like that's kind of like that's it.

[Eddie]

I agree. Especially because he was a wrestler. The only reason I think he fake retired is because Michael Cole would not stop saying, we don't know, we haven't heard anything about it. And I just don't trust anything until. Well, I'm not going to trust until he dies. It was like John Cena was hosting it and he just came out a couple times and I was waiting for Cena to come out and fight even though he's retired. Because they just get us all the time.

[Kevin]

Right. I guess they would have made a bigger deal of it if he was really retiring.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Kevin]

Because he's such a massive star, so.

[Eddie]

And he may have retired. He may have not told him. I don't know, but I don't believe anything. I'm just naturally going to be a cynic. But I did think Obafemi winning and beating Brock Lesnar was really cool. Your next best match, I would probably

[Kevin]

say Randy Orton, Cody Rhodes.

[Eddie]

I'll let you have that. Go ahead.

[Kevin]

Just because night one needed something, there was no excitement. And then once that happened, I thought that was the most entertaining moment of that night.

[Bobby Bones]

What was up with a kick in the face? Because that's the clip I saw where. Yeah, like was that. Was he not supposed to hit him that hard because his eye was jacked up? Cody Rhodes, right? His eye was like swollen.

[Eddie]

I know you guys all think this is fake. A lot of this happens all the time. It's just the nature of that business.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but like, and even like after he kicked him, Mike, and correct me if I'm wrong here, but when the clip I saw, he kicks him and then he like goes up to. He's like, are you okay? And like made sure he was okay because I don't know, I guess maybe it was a mistake.

[Eddie]

That's. That that happens. Yeah, sure, it could have been a mistake or an accident and didn't mean to go that hard.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Eddie]

But yeah, when you're going at that speed, that hard, even if you are pulling it slightly, a lot of times you don't pull it in time.

[Kevin]

Dang.

[Eddie]

So there was a time too, Mike, during the Roman Reigns CM Punk match, when they came off the table, you saw the ref go on and check on him. Oh yeah, like really go check on him.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I saw that one too.

[Eddie]

Wait, what happened?

[Kevin]

It looked like it really got hurt.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it looked like somebody got hurt. And so the refs are always checking on them. Even if they're down going like one, they're talking to them. And they talk about this a lot now and on Tick Tock. But even the Netflix show where they, you know, behind the scenes the ref is down, he's like. Because if somebody is hurt or they knock their wins knocked out, they'll communicate to the other wrestler, hey, give it time. Like wait, slow roll your, your move back up. I felt like, like CM Punk was hurt.

[Kevin]

Oh, I thought Cody Reigns got hurt.

[Eddie]

Or Roman Reigns.

[Kevin]

Sorry. Yeah, yeah, like the way you hit him and then he. Or maybe he was just selling it really well when he was like in pain.

[Eddie]

Could have been either one of them. But that, that looked like a pretty tough shot. My second favorite match was the Night two ladder match

[Kevin]

Penta.

[Eddie]

I never, I'm not drawn to luchador type people because I'm like, I can't ever see their faces. Nothing to do with Mexico, Eddie.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. I was wondering, like, you have a lot of Mexican friends.

[Eddie]

Nothing to do.

[Mike]

Established.

[Eddie]

I just kind of like to see people's faces. But Pent is awesome. Yeah. And then Javon Evans, he's 21, really good, does all the high flying stuff. He's awesome. Ray Mysterio senior was in.

[Mike]

Oh, I know.

[Eddie]

He's already in the hall of Fame. He was. I, I, they just give so much of their bodies are so athletic. But what sucked was those other three guys, they got like beat up guy intros.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

They came back from commercial. The other three guys are just in the ring already. It's like back in the 90s when I used to watch WCW.

[Bobby Bones]

They're already in.

[Eddie]

And you would just know that person was going to lose.

[Kevin]

51.

[Eddie]

He's 51. Yeah, man. He was still moving really well. But yeah, they had three guys. JD McDonough, Dragon Lee and Rusev. Who I don't listen, I don't watch every. I'm not casual, but I'm definitely not super because I don't watch much more than ples and clips. But you knew those three weren't gonna win. Yeah, they were the Brooklyn Brawler. They were just in there. You knew they were gonna lose. They were just in there to kill some time. But they didn't even get an intro, which is why. But I did think that match was really good. Yeah, I thought the Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton was fine. It was the best one of the first night for sure. But I'm glad Cody Rhodes won. Randy Orton's 46. It looks like that all these guys. Yeah, it looks like great.

[Bobby Bones]

What I see Pat McAfee get rolled out.

[Eddie]

Stretcher. Yeah. So Pat McAfee was night one. He was Randy Orton's guy.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Eddie]

And so he came down, he got jelly rolled, Jelly roll came out for like five seconds and elbowed him off a table.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, okay.

[Eddie]

Yeah. And then they stretched him up and then he came back down in a referee uniform and then he got RKO'd by Randy Orton.

[Bobby Bones]

McAfee did, yeah.

[Kevin]

Supposedly he's done with WWE now.

[Eddie]

And now he's like retired. Now he's like, I'm out, I'm out. Other notes.

[Bobby Bones]

That's funny.

[Eddie]

The demon Finn, I don't think he's a good demon. Like I just know him as. And first of all, his name's, you know, Finn Balor. That's so Irish, isn't he Irish.

[Mike]

Finn Balor.

[Bobby Bones]

Isn't that Finn F I N N?

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

I feel like that's too Irish. Like, that dude doesn't look like a. I already knew him as Finn Balor. I don't know, Mike. Do you like the demon character?

[Kevin]

It's a little Cordy, but I kind of like it.

[Eddie]

Dominic Mysterio lost to him. I was surprised that he won. I don't know much about the demon character. I don't know where it's rooted in. So I'm not gonna act like his. Yeah, his paint was good. Trick Williams 1. There's too many titles. Do you feel that, Mike?

[Kevin]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Like, there was the undisputed WWE Championship between Cody and Orton, and then there was the World Heavyweight Champion between Roman and cm. It's almost like the same belt that two people have. Let's see Gunther beat Seth Rollins. What'd you think about that match?

[Kevin]

I like when Bron Breaker came out, even though they kind of botched the spear.

[Eddie]

They did botch the spear.

[Bobby Bones]

What does that mean?

[Eddie]

Bron Breaker comes running down and Bron Breaker is Rick Steiner's son. Am I right on that? Let's see. He comes running down, sprinting down, and does the spear, but he kind of misses it.

[Bobby Bones]

He runs down the. Like to the ring.

[Mike]

Oh, yeah, he is.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah.

[Mike]

And he.

[Eddie]

Yeah, he sprints down. He's been out for a while and he misses. He hits it kind of. But Seth Rollins is there. Seth Rollins is an A star, so you don't really want him getting. Losing a match. And Gunther, they're really putting over as, like, the career ender. But, yeah, he's. He's Rick Steiner, son.

[Mike]

Yeah, he is.

[Eddie]

Who's your favorite women's wrestler? Is it Rhea?

[Kevin]

Rhea Ripley.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

I'm big Becky lynch fan.

[Kevin]

She's good, too.

[Eddie]

Yeah, she is. And right now they kind of have her being. We'll call it a bad guy. But people love. Yeah, right.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm learning.

[Eddie]

People love her too much. Like, she's so good at everything. Becky lynch is. She was the man. Becky lynch, she headlined. She was the main event. WrestleMania, first woman main event.

[Bobby Bones]

Who do we have on the show?

[Eddie]

Which one?

[Bobby Bones]

We interviewed her. She kind of had her belt.

[Eddie]

Chelsea Green.

[Bobby Bones]

Chelsea Green. Did she fight?

[Eddie]

She was not in this.

[Mike]

Oh, yeah, I remember her from the show.

[Eddie]

Drew McIntyre lost to Jacob Fatou. Drew McIntyre's who I had on my Netflix show.

[Bobby Bones]

Tattoo. Big, big one.

[Eddie]

They're both big. Yeah. Well, you're just saying that.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I've seen him. I'VE seen him before. I think I saw him live when I went to Bridgestone.

[Eddie]

What do you think about that match?

[Kevin]

It's crazy. After seeing him in person, having him on the podcast and then seeing him on wwe, like, oh, he is massive.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Do you root for him more?

[Kevin]

I was. Yeah.

[Mike]

Yeah. You have to, right?

[Eddie]

I was. I was sad he lost. Like, oh, my God.

[Bobby Bones]

He's your dude.

[Eddie]

Text him the other match. Oh, so. So you ever see that movie? What is it? Fighting with my family. You guys ever see that movie?

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Eddie]

Mark Wahlberg watch it a lot.

[Mike]

Oh, no.

[Eddie]

Is he in it?

[Kevin]

Believe. Is the dad in that?

[Eddie]

Is he? So I watched it a long time ago, and it's about young girl wanting to be a wrestler, and her family's like, what are you doing?

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so it's.

[Eddie]

But it's about the wrestler Paige's life, and she's been out of wwe. She was injured really badly for eight years. She came back, but I watched the movie before. Before I really knew much about her. So she came back and she fought with one of the Bella twins.

[Bobby Bones]

Did she win?

[Eddie]

They won. They're champions. Yeah. But she's been out for eight years. But I just. The movie's good. Like, it's.

[Kevin]

Right, Mike?

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Kevin]

Oh, never mind. It's Vince Vaughn, the Rock, and Florence Pugh plays her.

[Eddie]

That's who played her.

[Kevin]

Yeah, Florence Pugh.

[Eddie]

And that's been so long. Yeah.

[Kevin]

This was 2019.

[Eddie]

That was before Florence Pugh was even famous.

[Kevin]

Like, right on the cusp of that. Yeah.

[Eddie]

Yeah. So she returned. Everybody was shocked, but some of that stuff had been leaked. That kind of sucks.

[Kevin]

Yeah. I saw she signed the contract the day before.

[Eddie]

Yeah. The other one was. So Speed and Logan Paul were on the same team with another with Austin

[Mike]

Theory, and so he, like, fully in now. Speed. I show speed, right or no? Yeah, you're talking about. Right?

[Eddie]

No, he's not fully in. This was actually his first match. He got thrown into the Royal Rumble, and I think Bron Breakkers, who speared him and, like, lit him.

[Mike]

I remember him getting speared.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Hard. And. No, he came back and actually wrestled in this one. Dude's an athlete, Speed.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Awesome athlete.

[Kevin]

He's already ripped, so he, like, kind of fits in so well. He can fly, too.

[Eddie]

And Logan Paul can be a champion. He's awesome. Like, as a WWE wrestler. That's not a. He's not an awesome celebrity wrestler. He's just really, really great. And he's jacked. Yeah. Yeah. And also he does the flips and the. They lost, though. But Logan Paul's really good, but La Knight and the USO brothers won. So anyway, feel like they use the

[Kevin]

announcer table too much all the time, like every match. All right, we're going to go through the table. It takes away from the. The meaning of going through the table.

[Bobby Bones]

That's the one that broke.

[Eddie]

Well, they kept. They kept doing. What do they have, 12 tables? They just kept replacing them. Very. It's super cliche. Let's put them through the table or let's lay them on the table and jump off.

[Kevin]

It just didn't feel Super WrestleMania to me. There was nothing. There was no, like. Like the entire ring going down or somebody coming out with some kind of machinery. There was nothing. No pizzazz.

[Eddie]

I agree. It did not feel like the premiere of the premieres.

[Kevin]

Like, this is the big. Of the big one.

[Eddie]

Mm. Yeah. What do you let or grade it? C. Same.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, wow. Just barely passed same.

[Eddie]

And I'm telling you, if weren't for night two being good, it had to be really good to lift it because night one was dud.

[Kevin]

You know, I care about the least when they announce how many people are there, they're like.

[Eddie]

It was so weird, too, after John Cena did that. He comes out and he's like, all right, you ready to hear the total attendance? And the crowd's like, huh?

[Kevin]

I don't care.

[Bobby Bones]

No one cares.

[Eddie]

55. And then last night, the total attendance, 106,012. And the camera just stays on for a second and then some music hits and it just goes to commercial. It was just the weirdest. It was so clunky.

[Kevin]

The most entertaining, un. Entertaining thing you can put on the thing. Like, I do not care how many people are there.

[Bobby Bones]

Was that in Vegas?

[Eddie]

Yeah. Yeah. I feel like that place is too big, that arena. Yeah.

[Kevin]

Like, it takes. Like, it just feels too massive and you don't feel the energy of it.

[Bobby Bones]

Where was it? Was it T Mobile or was it an allegiant. Oh, Allegiance. It's a stadium medium. Yeah.

[Kevin]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Without. You know, that's where they're gonna have it. Because it's about money. It's all. I don't hate people making money. So I like to remove that narrative that I've put on myself. But it does. It does make it feel different.

[Bobby Bones]

It's too big.

[Eddie]

But some of the intros were cool. Like, they spent. They invested some money in it. They made a bunch of money. They had to add on everything.

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, I like it when they play basketball in those stadiums like a Final Four. I think that was in oh, Indian. Yeah, Indy at the football. It's where the Colts play.

[Eddie]

Are you watching? The Cowboys will do it on the draft. It's coming up Thursday.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, I haven't done much research. There's a lot of theories on like, well, historically what they've gotten at number 12. I'll get there. I'm just not. I'm not in that mindset yet. Who knows, dude? Who knows what they're gonna do?

[Eddie]

Are you excited about it?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, always. Oh, the draft's so exciting.

[Mike]

First round picks too.

[Bobby Bones]

I know.

[Eddie]

Now the Giants have two and the jets have two.

[Mike]

Yep.

[Eddie]

Because the Giants just traded.

[Mike]

Yeah. Dexter Lawrence.

[Eddie]

Lawrence to the Bengals for the number 10 pick.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, wow.

[Mike]

Did you see that clip of him? He's already at the stadium like 12 hours after I got announced. No way. He was already there.

[Kevin]

Yeah.

[Mike]

And then it's like a clip of him and he's walking into the stadium empty and he's like, I got chill. And it's like, what? This news just broke last night.

[Eddie]

So there you go.

[Bobby Bones]

All right.

[Mike]

A.J. brown.

[Bobby Bones]

Yep.

[Eddie]

Did I miss something this morning?

[Mike]

Well, it's pretty much a lock that

[Eddie]

he's going to get Diana Rossini reporting it.

[Mike]

Oh no, that's the running joke. It is.

[Eddie]

I haven't seen this, so I'm sorry if I stole somebody's joke. I have not seen the news because I've been working on.

[Mike]

No, you'll see it. So they're saying that after June 1st because then the cap hit goes from 40 million to 20 million. He's going to get traded to the Patriots. Patriots.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, wow.

[Mike]

That is pretty much a locked shefter came out and Said it today.

[Bobby Bones]

See, that's why that joke really works.

[Mike]

It really did work. So everyone started photoshopping AI Chef her at the resort with.

[Bobby Bones]

The Internet is so funny.

[Eddie]

So for what. What are the Patriots trading?

[Mike]

It doesn't say any details about that yet.

[Eddie]

Brable, right.

[Mike]

Diana.

[Bobby Bones]

They're just like, oh, God, we got

[Eddie]

to get rid of them.

[Bobby Bones]

We give you. And throw in the resort, too, while we're at it.

[Mike]

Yeah, right. A free weekend at the resort.

[Eddie]

Those rooms are like two grand to, like, six grand a night at that place.

[Kevin]

Wow.

[Eddie]

And did you read the story that because the Athletic. I get the Atlantic and the Athletic mixed up. I subscribe to the Athletic. I don't subscribe to the Atlantic, but they're both. This sounds the same.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Atlantic Athletic.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

So that the people at the Athletic, I believe, gave her the opportunity to provide some receipts, literal receipts from going into the resort. Literal pictures of her with her friends, all. And none couldn't do anything. None. Yeah.

[Mike]

That's not good. Wow. And then there was a reporter. I'm not. I can't remember his name, but came out and said that he believes it's. It was her husband that hired a P.I. right.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Mike]

So it's.

[Kevin]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Not good.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, so it was an iPhone, according to that guy's belief.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Man, that reporter was at the right spot. Like, hiding in a mountain. Like, in full. Real tree camo.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Like looking like a freaking turkey hunter, just waiting.

[Bobby Bones]

I wonder, like, you hunted, right? Like, anytime you see, like, the. You know, you see deer in crosshairs, your heart just starts racing. I wonder if when he saw the whole hands, like, oh, man.

[Eddie]

Got him. Got him.

[Mike]

We got him.

[Eddie]

We got him. I know. He starts shaking. He's like, oh, God, I got him.

[Mike]

I got him for three days.

[Eddie]

Oh, man, that boy. They're a lot. Brable's not so much. Although I wonder if at home he's in trouble.

[Mike]

He has to be.

[Eddie]

And he's avoiding it.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

And it's a nuisance to him, but it completely shook up her life. Did you hear this story is all alleged, probably fake. I want to say that at the beginning about how she got into a fight with. With Britt McHenry, Diana Rossini, and Google this up about they got into a fight because they were both hooking up with Sean McVeigh. Now, again, this could totally be something that was made up. I read it two different places. That does not mean it's true. Because somebody can just take something and repost it from the other thing. That was wrong.

[Bobby Bones]

Sean McVeigh, single dude.

[Eddie]

Yeah, he was. Not anymore.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, he's married now.

[Mike]

He was for a while.

[Eddie]

Yeah. And dude, when he was single, I knew somebody who was hooking up with him.

[Bobby Bones]

He's a good looking dude.

[Mike]

You got a kid now.

[Eddie]

Anything about that?

[Kevin]

It's unverified.

[Mike]

They got into a drunken fist chatter

[Kevin]

and post from 2015.

[Eddie]

But there are posts from back then.

[Kevin]

Yeah, but they're unverified.

[Eddie]

Right, right. But I'm just saying it wasn't somebody that made it up now.

[Kevin]

They just came out back around now.

[Eddie]

But. But they did happen in 2015.

[Mike]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Unverified.

[Eddie]

But that's different than them making it up now.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

And going, this is a story. Story. We're making it up. If that was posted in 2015, I'm not saying that makes it true, but it does give it a leg.

[Bobby Bones]

There's something there, huh?

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Mike]

And this is when he was back with Washington McVeigh, who's their assistant. Dang. That's crazy. A lot of female reporters are calling her out, though.

[Eddie]

I saw the one girl get fired, but yeah. Did you shut up. That one that got fired from USA Today.

[Kevin]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Usa.

[Eddie]

That's what it was like. She got what she deserved. And no, it's not your chili, man.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Kevin]

What?

[Mike]

She is flipping that into a parade for herself now, as far as, like,

[Eddie]

she was also not even a real, real employee. She was like a contracted employee from what I read.

[Bobby Bones]

Freelance writer.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Like, they just hire freelance. But I know. I'm sure that. But that's not your chili. Stay out of it.

[Mike]

Don't eat your. Someone else's chili.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah.

[Eddie]

Whatever works for you.

[Bobby Bones]

Whatever works feature on Sauerkraut Crop.

[Eddie]

Yep. Sauerkraut, everybody. Good.

[Bobby Bones]

Good, Mike.

[Kevin]

Good, good.

[Eddie]

All right, that's it for this week or that's it for this. This episode here. It's. You know, there really aren't any sports.

[Bobby Bones]

No, there really isn't.

[Eddie]

Arkansas lost two out of three to Oklahoma in softball. Oklahoma's number one. Arkansas is number six. Game one, they lost by one. Game two, they won by one. But it was the first time they had beat Oklahoma in like 16 years.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow.

[Eddie]

all.

[Miller]

All.

[Eddie]

And so I know they're disappointed because they got beat pretty bad. Game three, it's the first time they beat Oklahoma in 16 years at all. Oklahoma has lost one one home series since. Two in the last five years. They're just so dominant. But I know. And I haven't talked to DJ since, but that's like his mom beat his mom. That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow.

[Eddie]

They haven't beat him in like 16 years.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow, that's crazy.

[Eddie]

So I'm sure they're disappointed they didn't win a series and that third game wasn't good. But they can play with them and. And then they finally. They got the monkey off their back on just not being able to beat him at all.

[Mike]

You watching in the NBA yet?

[Bobby Bones]

Little bit. Spurs look good last night.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I saw Wimy. Not game games, but dude, Wrestlemania has been on. What do you want for me?

[Mike]

I know, I'm sorry.

[Eddie]

What do you want?

[Mike]

Forgot. Okay. It's over now.

[Eddie]

I watch a bunch of clips. I saw Wimy go pretty much coast to coast.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Oh yeah. Dude, he's so good.

[Eddie]

Like behind the back. I mean, all the way down.

[Mike]

I. I think I saw the same one as you.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I seen some clips. I saw Steph's out.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Goes to Golden State next year. That would be interesting.

[Mike]

You might there, man. The Lakers. That Lakers. Houston. I watched like half of that game. It was bad.

[Eddie]

So Lakers won game one. Durant was. Did Durant play last night?

[Mike]

No, the game one, he didn't play. Right.

[Eddie]

But did they play game two?

[Mike]

They don't play till tomorrow.

[Eddie]

Okay, so they didn't play last night.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

This is the start of the three month playoffs.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Tyler Reddick won again. Nascar.

[Mike]

No way.

[Public Investing Advertiser]

Really?

[Mike]

Dude.

[Bobby Bones]

Dude, this is weird. It's weird. Michael, you know Michael Jordan, like when you see something like this happen where Tyler Reddick is a good racer. I'm not saying he's not a good racer, but like he's won four races this year already. It's pretty unheard of in NASCAR for someone to dominate like that.

[Eddie]

And is he winning too much where it feels fishy?

[Bobby Bones]

It does. And if it wasn't for Jordan talking about how like he paid. All I think about is the stories of like, you know, when he'd bet the team, like, I bet you my luggage comes out first. And then he'd pay the luggage people to make sure his luggage comes out first. This is the crap I'm thinking is happening. It just feels weird. But hey, Tyler Reddick won again.

[Eddie]

We do all the sports stuff in like the last 60 seconds of the show.

[Mike]

Sports podcast.

[Bobby Bones]

In golf, there was a good playoff. Playoff at the HG Heritage. Something. Yeah. Matthew Fitzpatrick was winning. And then Scheffler just came out of nowhere again. Tied it up, went to playoffs.

[Eddie]

Who won?

[Bobby Bones]

Fitzpatrick did.

[Eddie]

Oh, he did?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, he did. Playoff hole. He birded it wins it.

[Eddie]

I saw where DeChambeau punked out of the live event. Was like, oh, my wrist hurts. He was like complaining that the ball was in a weird place.

[Mike]

They're in Mexico.

[Eddie]

You're like, you're not getting shot, bro. Just hit the ball. Yeah, I stopped complaining. That would chop your head off. Yeah, he said my. I'm withdrawing. My wrist hurts. Liv's going down anyway.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I know. It's bad.

[Eddie]

All right. Sports podcast.

[Bobby Bones]

No, that was it.
