I'm Kristen Davis, host of the podcast Are youe a Charlotte? In 1998, my life was forever changed when I took on the role of Charlotte Yorke on a new show called Sex and the City. Now I get to sit down with some of my favorite people and relive all of the incredible moments this show brought us on and off the screen. Listen to Are youe a Charlotte?

Not every sale happens at the register before AT&T business Wireless. Checking out customers on our mobile POS systems took too long. Basically a staring contest where everyone loses. It's crazy what people will say during an awkward silence. Now transactions are done before the silence takes hold. That means I can focus on the task at hand and make an extra sale or two. Sometimes I do miss the bonding time.

[Amy and TJ / Morgan (Best Bits)]

Sometimes AT&T business Wireless connecting changes everything Best Bits of the Week with Morgan

[Morgan]

it's listener Q and A time where

[Amy and TJ / Morgan (Best Bits)]

Morgan and a show member answer almost all your questions.

[Morgan]

Eddie, are you ready for some questions and answers?

[Eddie]

Yes. Can we start with the question I sent in?

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Did you put it on the list?

[Morgan]

Please stop doing these Best bits podcasts.

[Eddie]

Did I say that?

[Morgan]

Yes, you producereddie from Nashville, Tennessee.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah, I saw that. I was tagging a picture. I was like, what is this? Oh, it's Morgan's.

[Morgan]

You know what? It is you. I literally took the picture of you looking at me.

[Eddie]

I know but, like, I didn't know when you were going to post it or what. So when I saw it, like, you know, when I said it was tagged on, I was tagged on it.

[Morgan]

You know, you could have reposted it at least.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but I don't know. If I. If I repost it, can people still ask the question?

[Morgan]

They can click into it and go and put a question.

[Eddie]

Because sometimes, like, people will do a post with a link in it, and then I repost it and the link doesn't work.

[Morgan]

But they can still go to the post for links. Yes. You have to repost the link.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

On top of it.

[Eddie]

It's a lot of work.

[Morgan]

But they can just click on it and then go to mine, which will allow them to answer questions.

[Eddie]

Do I write that on there, though? Hey, can you click on that and go to the original one?

[Morgan]

You can, but people figure it out at this point.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Morgan]

Most people are pretty. Pretty technical, savvy, you know? Anyways, my favorite Best bits. Weekend duo. That's from Dana, and we've got some. I think. You know what? You said we should end it, but Janice said. How do I listen?

[Eddie]

Janice is. You're starting it.

[Morgan]

So there you go. We have people who love it.

[Eddie]

Did you respond to her?

[Morgan]

I haven't yet. I'm just now looking.

[Eddie]

So you're gonna. How does this come in? Can I see them?

[Morgan]

Yeah, sometimes.

[Eddie]

Can I read them?

[Morgan]

Like looking? Yeah, you can read them. How about. Oh, this is cool.

[Eddie]

No, there's no way. I don't have my glasses.

[Morgan]

This is gonna be fun. You can't zoom in on it.

[Eddie]

Zoom in on it. Kenny's literally using fingers. Do you want me to guess?

[Morgan]

You can guess four questions and then we do a break in. Four questions.

[Eddie]

Oh, my gosh. There are all these questions. How do you pick?

[Morgan]

I just kind of go through them and figure out things that we haven't talked about before.

[Eddie]

Oh, my goodness.

[Morgan]

Okay, you get to choose the questions this weekend.

[Eddie]

All right. And just so you know, I don't have my glasses on, so I may mess this up. Gail from Massachusetts. Eddie, do you win Lunchbox ever? To anything?

[Morgan]

Oh, my gosh.

[Eddie]

Give me that. Outside of work, do you win Lunchbox ever?

[Morgan]

Let me see that.

[Eddie]

Do anything outside of work?

[Morgan]

I think she's trying to say.

[Eddie]

Or the. Or. Is that my eyes? Is that my eyes or.

[Morgan]

Dad, where are you at? Eddie, she did spell do you win lunchbox? I think she's trying to ask, do you and Lunchbox ever do anything outside of work?

[Eddie]

Good question.

[Morgan]

Is, I think, what she's trying to ask.

[Eddie]

Okay, Gayle, good question. Now that we got it, you have to answer it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, lunchbox. We play golf together. That's really our thing. We'll play golf together sometimes. We'll get the families together, which we haven't in a while because I have four boys, he has three boys.

[Morgan]

Yeah. You guys are like a whole baseball team. When you go out together, it's a lot.

[Eddie]

Yes, there's a lot going on. We haven't done that in a while, but yeah, we like to play golf together mostly.

[Morgan]

And you guys will randomly go to lunch sometimes?

[Eddie]

Randomly, yeah.

[Morgan]

There's moments where we'll come back and you guys have gone to lunch. Like some of the guys on the show.

[Eddie]

You know how it is. Like, sometimes just like, for the most part, we do the show and then everybody has to get back to their life. Like, we gotta go handle this. But there are some days where, like, my wife's like, hey, I got stuff to do. So if you have work to do, like, just stay at work, you know? And they'll be like, okay, cool, I finished my work. And then I'm like, hey, does anyone wanna go to lunch? So that'd be cool.

[Morgan]

Then you wanna hang with people. It's your time.

[Eddie]

Okay, let's see. Why is one of your boys homeschooled? Good question.

[Morgan]

Who was it from?

[Eddie]

I don't know.

[Serving Pancakes Host]

Don't.

[Morgan]

You can't zoom in on it, Eddie.

[Eddie]

Okay, Donna, maybe. Does that say Donna?

[Morgan]

Okay, go ahead and answer. I'll look. Yeah, it's Donna.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it's a long story. It's a long story, Donna. That's a long story. But you know what? At the end of the day, I will tell you that it ended up way better for him. Which is a weird thing because I don't know anyone that's homeschooled. Um, I, like, nobody that I'm close to has homeschooled their kids. So, like, I had no idea.

[Morgan]

But I do think it's becoming a lot more common.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

For homeschooling. I think private school is expensive. The public education system is kind of messed up all over the place. Not. Not because of teachers and stuff like that, but just our systems.

[Eddie]

Yes. And government funding, all that.

[Morgan]

Yeah. So I think you have a lot more of homeschooling happening.

[Eddie]

Yes. And.

[Morgan]

And schools are very prioritize on one way of thinking, which is test oriented.

[Eddie]

Correct. And if you can encourage someone to learn at their own pace, sometimes that's how people learn. It's hard for someone that if someone learns at a certain kind of pace or a certain style of learning and they're in a class with 20 other people, and that's not their style, it's bad for them.

[Morgan]

Well, and does this sound a lot like you and the experience, because you didn't love school and you did not have a great experience,

[Eddie]

was not good at school. He's different. He's smart. Not like me. He's super smart. He just. I think with him, there was a lot of distractions at school. There's a lot of, like, you know, friends and things going on that were,

[Morgan]

like, more exciting things than to do schoolwork.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Yeah. And I think listening in a classroom was really hard for him.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Where now it's like he has no choice but to listen to what's happening on his computer. So overall, it was a really good. It was a good thing.

[Morgan]

I do think that's a big thing that I hope we see more of is just the education of people becomes more individualized in a sense of, like, we're really focused on the person versus, like, oh, well, there's 30 students, and they should all learn the same way. I really hope Eddie's reading questions as I'm talking to him, but he's not going to in this moment.

[Eddie]

Here you go.

[Morgan]

I do. I do hope that that stays a thing. I think that's really important to really individualized learning for people. I think we're gonna see more better experiences for kids that way. Of course, like, you're, like, you know, if you're like me, a public education was great. I loved my. My education.

[Eddie]

But you were good at that.

[Morgan]

That's not. I wasn't. I did not. I hate.

[Eddie]

Yes, you were. You were smart.

[Morgan]

Okay, don't walk down this path.

[Eddie]

You're highly intelligent.

[Morgan]

Do not walk down. I did have.

[Eddie]

I really didn't mean that. I really didn't mean that. But now I know how sensitive you are towards it.

[Morgan]

Now it is. I did have a 4.0 GPA, but I had to work my. For that. I. I would.

[Eddie]

4.0.

[Morgan]

Oh, my gosh. I. I. Eddie, the amount of things that I studied, the way that I had to study, like, I don't remember things well, like, past. If I. If I study for it, I'll do good in that moment. But comprehensive exams, Horrible. I. I hated comprehensive exams because once I learned it, I learned it, and then it was gone.

[Eddie]

So how can you study, like, 80s, like, pop culture?

[Morgan]

I can't so you. I've tried.

[Eddie]

So you can do a little better. Literally.

[Morgan]

I promise you, I've tried, and I

[Eddie]

still can't retain the information that square roots. You don't think that anytime I lose a easy trivia game because of a stupid square root question, I don't go home that day and try to study square roots? I do. Or all the same, I do it just. I can't get it.

[Morgan]

I'm with you, though. I hate math, too. So every time you get one, I'm like, I get it.

[Eddie]

Okay, here's one from. Okay. I don't know. I can't read your name. Put more pepper. Oh, this isn't a question. Put more pepper on the brisket. This is Katina from Indiana, and she did. Lol.

[Morgan]

Okay. For your brisket competition coming up. Is that what that's about?

[Eddie]

Oh, possibly.

[Morgan]

Or did you post something about brisket?

[Eddie]

I do, yeah. But. But, But I have posted on a brisket about a brisket before, but I do equal salt, equal pepper. Like, so I don't know, maybe she's.

[Morgan]

Wait, hold on. You do eat. Wait on everything you do equals. Are you.

[Eddie]

No, just on brisket. So the brisket rub that I do is equals pepper, equals salt, all in a bowl. And then, like, I think half of that measurement of garlic powder. And that's it. And that's the rub. And I don't know if she's saying, like, hey, put more pepper than that.

[Morgan]

Maybe. Maybe that's what she's referencing. But I'm just kind of shocked right now because never in my life do I think I ever put equal parts salt or pepper. They're normally different amounts. Like, sometimes it's more pepper, sometimes it's more salt.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get that.

[Morgan]

So that's why I'm, like, shocked right now.

[Eddie]

But when you're cooking a brisket, a lot of that stuff burns off.

[Morgan]

Oh, so it's kind of more of just a cooking factor.

[AT&T Business Wireless Advertiser]

Yes.

[Eddie]

And I kind of want it to be balanced. Like, I want that heat and the salt, the saltiness to kind of balance out.

[Morgan]

Okay, that makes sense.

[Eddie]

And I'm not sure. I don't even know if I read that somewhere or, like, why I do that, but that's just what I've always done. And I answered this the other day, too. I've made. Bobby asked me quickly, So I said 20, but I think I have made close to 40 briskets in my life,

[Morgan]

which is like, do you make briskets like, once or twice a year or.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah. Easily Easily. And I probably started.

[Morgan]

How old are you?

[Eddie]

47.

[Morgan]

And you started making briskets win.

[Eddie]

Probably when I was, I don't know, 30. In 30s. Somewhere in my 30s.

[Morgan]

And average you think you make a year?

[Eddie]

I would say average. For four briskets a year.

[Morgan]

I feel like that number is higher than.

[Eddie]

So maybe it's higher. Yeah. I don't know. But the reason.

[Morgan]

I'm not going to do math, because I know same.

[Eddie]

We were just talking about this. The reason that came up is because Kevin said we're doing a competition on 25 whistles.

[Morgan]

And.

[Eddie]

And it's me versus Kevin, and Kevin has made one. And I'm like, bro, it's cute. It's cute that you're challenging.

[Morgan]

So the other day when you guys were in the kitchen, that was the one he made. Was it good? No, I didn't eat it. Eddie. I just realized that I'm a vegetarian.

[Eddie]

I realized that. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

[Morgan]

I don't know how many times you're going to ask before you finally.

[Eddie]

You want it on a cow.

[Morgan]

The amount of times you bring up me to me. And that sounds also sexual. It's not okay.

[Eddie]

No, actually, I definitely don't bring that up.

[Morgan]

No meat, like product.

[Eddie]

Yes. I just. I forget. I forget. I'm sorry.

[Morgan]

That is like, it's been a part of the entire time.

[Eddie]

I know.

[Morgan]

Even when you and I first met and we grabbed lunch to talk about the show and, like, raging idiots and everything, I was a vegetarian.

[Eddie]

I know, but I didn't know that then.

[Morgan]

I've been a vegetarian. Hey, you got mad at me about your hair. I've been a vegetarian the entire time we've known each other.

[Eddie]

Hey, good transition. We got another one. Okay, here you go. Does Eddie feel more confident after being bald? Bald for a while. Marina, from. Is that Idaho?

[Morgan]

I would argue, Marina, that he's not. Because he yelled at me for this. That's Idaho.

[Eating While Broke Host]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Okay. No, yeah, you're right. I'm not. I'm not that confident. It's.

[Morgan]

You should be, though. Like, you look good as a ball guy.

[Eddie]

Oh, I know. But it's just like, I feel weird. And, you know what's happened is some people will be like. They'll walk right past me, and I'll be like, hey, so and so. And they'll be like, I don't know you. And then I'm kind of like, that's rude. Like, why did you just act like that? And then later they'll be like, dude, I didn't Realize that was you. I rarely see you without a hat,

[Morgan]

but that's your fault. I know that you always wear hats,

[Eddie]

but when people say that, I'm just like. Do they think I look like an alien?

[Morgan]

No, they're just saying they didn't recognize you because they're not familiar with that look that you're showing.

[Eddie]

I know.

[Morgan]

It'd be like if I showed up brunette, and you'd walk right past me.

[Eddie]

You'd be like, oh, no, I wouldn't. I know your face.

[Morgan]

You would walk. If I showed up as a brunette, you would walk right past me.

[Eddie]

I would be like, what did you do to your hair?

[Morgan]

It would be like a double take. You'd be like, walk. And then you'd be like, I think I know you. Like, that's the same thing.

[Eddie]

Okay, I know. Confidence. No. Am I getting used to it A little bit? Yes. But the confidence is tough, man. It's. Being a bald person is. It's just different. It's just different.

[Morgan]

That's fair. I cannot begin to understand that experience.

[Eddie]

But so easy with your comments.

[Morgan]

I didn't mean it in that way.

[Eddie]

I've only known you since you were.

[Morgan]

I was talking about. Okay, first of all, that was not unsolicited.

[Eddie]

I know.

[Morgan]

You were sitting on a tour bus and you were showing me old pictures of you as a kid, and I'm

[Eddie]

like, but no crap. I had hair. I was a kid.

[Morgan]

That sounded. No crap. Some people lose their hair, like, 15.

[Eddie]

No, not like that.

[Morgan]

Some people do. Or 20.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

So I could have known you're. I. But in my defense, I was looking at kid pictures of you, and it was just a different variation of you. No, different. If you saw kid pictures of me and you're like, dang, she's a crazy girl.

[Eddie]

Next question.

[Morgan]

Okay, but we gotta take a break. Okay, we'll be right back.

[Serving Pancakes Host]

On the Serving Pancakes podcast, conversations about volleyball go beyond the court.

[Podcast Announcer]

Today we have a little best friend compatibility test.

[Serving Pancakes Host]

Okay, how long have we been best friends for?

I feel like it was a little bit unbelievable until I really start making money.

[Eating While Broke Host]

It's Financial Literacy Month and the podcast Eating While Broke is bringing real conversations about money, growth and building your future. This month hear from top streamer Zoe Spencer and venture capitalist lakeisha Landrum Pierre as they share their journeys from starting out to leveling up.

[Podcast Announcer]

If I'm outside with my parents and they're seeing all these people come up to me for pictures, it's like, what today? Now, Obviously it's like 100%. They believe everything, but at first it was just like, you gotta go get a real job. There's an economic component to communities thriving. If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they fail. And what I mean by fail is they don't have money to pay for food. They cannot feed their kids, they do not have homes. Communities don't work unless there's money flowing through them.

[AT&T Business Wireless Advertiser]

Listen to Amy and TJ on the

[Morgan]

iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts. You can tell this is going off the rails because Eddie's literally just on my phone looking at these questions okay,

[Eddie]

this is a good one. Now that Bobby has a daughter, will Eddie maybe want to adopt a little girl? Yeah, that's easy answer. No. No, we don't have. We can't. We can't. No, we can't.

[Morgan]

You said a lot of things in there that are not. Would your wife want a little kid? Little daughter?

[Eddie]

Yes, 100%. My wife loves baby Billy and, like, talks about baby Billy every day. And she's like, have you got another picture from Bobby? And then I'm like, no. And then she'll text Caitlin and then she'll get a picture from Caitlin, and she wants. She wants baby Billy. Like, she. Like, she wants a baby, like always. And I'm like, you got to stop. Like, you're. Just because someone has a baby doesn't mean we can have a baby like, every single time.

[Morgan]

I think your wife just loves being a mom.

[Eddie]

She does. She does. You know, it's become who she is. And. And yes. And. And having four boys. Being a mom of four boys has taken a toll on her, like. Like some days.

[Morgan]

So you have to give her a daughter.

[Eddie]

No, no, no. Because then. Oh, my gosh. Like, I don't know, I just feel like, dad. Girl dads are special.

[Morgan]

Like, I have one.

[Eddie]

I have a girl dads are special. Like, I feel like I've got a good grip on being a boy dad. Like, I'm good with them. We can talk about real stuff. And I feel like I know how to raise them. If I had a girl Morgan, I don't know, like, I would just be so. I'd be so nervous and stressed out all the time and worried and then pissed when they start dating. Like, all those things. I don't know. I could do that.

[Morgan]

Yeah, but how many girl dads have you talked to who. It's just the most rewarding thing ever.

[Eddie]

My. My father in law, because they were all girls and he's awesome. But see, like, here's the thing. Like, my father in law, your dad, there's another, a friend of mine who has, like, three girls. Like, they are special. Like, they're different. They are different. And that's why I truly believe that God puts us in the place that we're supposed to be. Like, these girl dads, they were meant to be girl dads. And, like.

[Morgan]

Okay, but hold on. Devil's advocate here.

[Eddie]

Even, like, Caitlin's dad, like, has daughters, and he's just a special man.

[Morgan]

And that's true. That's all. What you said is all true. But also, you take something like My dad, he was like. He was like a little redneck before all of us. I know he would hunt, he'd go fishing. He. He would, like, down some beers. Yeah, he was just, like, total dude. And then he had daughters, and, like, everything about him kind of changed.

[Eddie]

Do you think you all changed him, or do you think he was, like, he had to get all that stuff out because he knew somehow deep inside that he was gonna have daughters?

[Morgan]

No, I think. I think we softened him, but I think he also allowed us to harden through him. Like. Right. Like, I played softball and basketball and volleyball, and I was an athlete. I was kind of a tomboy. Like, I. I really embodied the boy that he didn't have. Right. But then I was also still, like, a really girly girl. And I'd play Dr. And I'd have stuffed animals and have dreams of being a singer. You know what I mean? Like, and he. I think it was the coolest thing to watch my dad just morph into the girl dad, because I don't. That's not who he was before. He was every bit of, like, a man, you know? And he still is. He's more now than he ever was.

[Eddie]

So you think. You think if he had all boys, he'd be more of a dude?

[Morgan]

I think you naturally do. I think you.

[Kristen Davis]

You just.

[Morgan]

It's. It's like what's around your environment, and if you have a bunch of dolls and lipstick and dresses around your environment, and you. This little girl looking at you, saying, hi, Daddy, your whole. Your life changes, you know?

[Eddie]

Like, I get that.

[Morgan]

So I think when something like that happens is what morphs the person to become who they're supposed to be in that.

[Eddie]

I did think, like, before we had kids, I did think I was gonna have girls. I did. And I was ready. We had names and everything. Like, I'm like, oh, yeah.

[Morgan]

So maybe that's a sign, Eddie.

[Eddie]

A sign of what?

[Morgan]

It didn't happen that you should have one.

[Eddie]

No, it didn't happen. Amy's texting you, by the way. I just ignored this.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Eddie]

Okay, next question.

[Morgan]

Yeah. Is.

[Eddie]

Is the jealous between you and Lunchbox? A bit. That's funny. We're not jealous. Are we jealous of each other?

[Morgan]

I think you're just like brothers. I think that's the thing that gets lost a little bit.

[Eddie]

That's it. That's a great way of explaining it is.

[Morgan]

We're just kind of all a family, and we're like siblings. If you looked at all of us, we're just siblings.

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Morgan]

With Each other and the crap that we give each other, the stuff that we walk through, like, it's. It's siblings arguing with each other.

[Eddie]

I will say. I will say, though, that, like, him and I do have a competitive thing with each other with things on the show. Like. Like Price is Right. Like, there's a part of me that's like, dang, I want to go Price is Right for sure. When he got it, when he got in this situation. I know. And it's not jealousy. It's more. It's a brother thing.

[Morgan]

You know, like, competition. Friendly competition.

[Eddie]

You have a brother and they win the spelling bee, you're just like, what the crap, man? Like, I want to win the spelling bee. Why did he get to win the spelling bee? You have a brother. He wins the tournament, Your team loses the tournament. Like, it's the same kind of thing we were doing. You know how I'm doing this podcast? This is this drama, whatever podcast. Yeah, podcast drama that I'm doing called the Void.

[Morgan]

Yeah. You're being a voice actor.

[Eddie]

Yes. And so I was talking to the guy that created it, and he was like, I was thinking about asking Lunchbox to do a part, and I was like, you don't want that. You know what? I shut it down real quick. I'm like, you know, you don't want that. Like, no, that. That'd be bad.

[Morgan]

Eddie, you just admitted that.

[Eddie]

So there is definitely. I don't know. It's not jealousy. There's just some kind of competition that me and Lunchbox have. It's friendly, though. I don't know.

[Morgan]

That didn't sound friendly in that moment.

[Eddie]

It's friendly. It's brotherly friendly competition.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

Whatever you say from the horse's mouth itself, is that. Isn't that the same. You said it.

[Eddie]

Oh, this is great.

[Morgan]

He didn't answer me because he's reading questions.

[Eddie]

This one says, I have prayed for Eddie's family and just wondered, how are they all doing? I love that. We are doing great, actually. So thank you for your prayers. Like, we really are.

[Morgan]

Who is it? Can you shout them out while you're all.

[Eddie]

I can't see that name.

[Morgan]

Can you keep talking? I'll find out.

[Eddie]

Okay. Yeah, everyone is doing great.

[Morgan]

Jenny. Her name's Jamie.

[Eddie]

Even, like, there's Jenny. Thank you, Jenny. I think my immediate family, we're all doing really well. Thank God. Everything's good. My brother is doing well. My mom is doing well. Everyone is doing well. And so although my sister, she came into town and she hurt her Back?

[Morgan]

No.

[Eddie]

I don't know. She said she was picking something up the day before she got here and she hurt her back. So, like, other than that, I think that's minor. She probably tweaked, like, something. A good massage or chiropractor visit would probably help that. But other than that, everyone is really, really, really good.

[Morgan]

Oh, I love seeing that. And your brother is thriving.

[Eddie]

He really is.

[Morgan]

Have you seen him since?

[Eddie]

No. No. And he's trying to get me to go up to. No, I didn't even see him. Christmas. He didn't come down. He didn't go down.

[Morgan]

When did you last see him?

[Eddie]

I haven't seen him since last year. Last Thanksgiving, last year. But he's trying to get me to go to New York to go to a Yankee game with him.

[Morgan]

Why don't you?

[Eddie]

Just trying to find the time. And he already bought the tickets. I think it's the Red Sox and the Yankees.

[Morgan]

So fun.

[Eddie]

Which would be. It's a rivalry, so that'd be really cool. He also is trying to get SNL tickets. He loves Saturday Night Live. He loves it.

[Morgan]

That's cool.

[Eddie]

And he's like, dude, if I get these tickets, you're coming. And so I told him, you get the SNL tickets. There's no question I'll be there. Like, I will make anything. I'll move anything to make that happen. The Yankee game, I'm not sure yet. Like, just the weekend's kind of weird. And we could have tournaments that weekend, which. We have tournaments every weekend.

[Morgan]

I know. I was gonna say you always. This could be the one exception.

[Eddie]

But the problem is, like, is if the tournaments are in different places, a kid's gonna have to miss one because, like, you know, my wife won't be able to be at two places at

[Morgan]

once carpooling with other parents or other kids.

[Eddie]

It's possible, but with these, like, these AAU tournaments, we don't really know the parents that well from these other kids.

[Morgan]

Like, are these, like, competitive teams versus school teams?

[Eddie]

Oh, my gosh. Yes. This is.

[Morgan]

Oh, yeah. I know that life.

[Eddie]

This is competitive basketball. And, like, the problem with some of. One of my boys, specifically the two other ones, they've been on their teams forever. Like, so they have the same teammates. But there's one of my boys, like, he gets put on a new team every single year. And, like, they don't know each other. And I don't know that we don't know the parents. And so it takes a whole season for us to get to know these parents. And then the next season comes around like they're all different parents.

[Morgan]

Oh, yeah.

[Eddie]

So that kind of makes it a little tricky, but I'm going to try to make it to the Yankees game. Don't really know that's going to happen. And it's also around, like, I think World cup up time.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Eddie]

So like he said, hotels are really expensive at that time.

[Morgan]

And you know what? But sometimes it's worth the money.

[Eddie]

I agree. I agree.

[Morgan]

And SNL and a Boston Yankees game.

[Eddie]

SNL. I told him, like, 100. I will move stuff around to do that for you. Because he's never been.

[Morgan]

Yeah. And I was like, his dream.

[Eddie]

And I want to be there for with him while he does that. To, like, do a taping. That'd be amazing.

[Morgan]

That would be really cool.

[Eddie]

And he still watches it. Like, I haven't watched SNL in, like, years.

[Morgan]

I only watch clips online. But it's so funny.

[Eddie]

Same thing.

[Morgan]

It's so funny.

[Eddie]

He watches it live on Saturday. Like, every Saturday. He watches it live.

[Morgan]

Oh, that would be so fun.

[Eddie]

He loves it.

[Morgan]

Yeah. You need to go out.

[Eddie]

And so. Thank you. Jenny. Jenny, Jenny. Thank you.

[Morgan]

All right, our last question. We're gonna get out of here.

[Eddie]

You don't want me to pick it?

[Morgan]

Well, do you want to pick it?

[Eddie]

No, no, no, go ahead.

[Morgan]

I have a fun one. It's from Erica in Wisconsin. If you could cook with any celebrity chef, who are you picking?

[Eddie]

Ooh, if I could cook with any celebrity chef. I feel like Emeril is really good.

[Morgan]

Who's that?

[Eddie]

Emeril Lagasse.

[Morgan]

Oh, Lagasse. I just needed the last name.

[Eddie]

Gordon Ramsay's really good.

[Morgan]

You know what? I would. I would want to go on a show, but not to. Not to cook with them, but to participate in it is. Guys, grocery games.

[Eddie]

I don't know what that is.

[Morgan]

It's so much fun. They, like, give you. They give you some kind of a category, and then you have, like, five minutes to run through the whole grocery store and get things that fit the category to make a dish.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

And he hosts. That's cool. And they do, like, Celebrity Chef. So I just, like, want to be somebody sous chef.

[Eddie]

That'll be fun.

[Morgan]

And run around the grocery store and, like, get whatever they need.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Help them with that.

[Morgan]

Yeah, that would be so fun, man.

[Eddie]

I don't know. That's a good question. I think in Austin, there were a couple of guys. I think his name was something Tyson. I don't remember.

[Morgan]

Tyson Foods. Tyson Nuggets.

[Eddie]

No, no, no, no. No, no, not. Not him. This guy. Like, I think he won the Iron Chef. Tyson Cole, I think is. His name is.

[Morgan]

I'll look up while you're talking.

[Eddie]

He won the Iron Chef and, like, back in the day, and then he had a couple of sushi restaurants in Austin. Not even sure if he still does, but he was awesome. And I, like, even when I lived in Austin, I'm like, dude, I would love to cook with him. What did you see?

[Morgan]

Tyson Col Iron Chef behind Uchi and Uchiko.

[Eddie]

Yes. Some of the best sushi in Austin.

[Morgan]

Iron Chef in America.

[Eddie]

Boom. That's him.

[Morgan]

But he did not win his 2008 Iron Chef America battle. But he's a prominent Austin sushi mascot.

[Eddie]

Boom. Legit. Legit. This guy's so, so good.

[Morgan]

Do you like sushi?

[Eddie]

I do. I love sushi, but those restaurants are really, really good. Those two that you mentioned, what's his name? Franklin. The. The. The. The guy from Franklin Barbecue.

[Morgan]

Okay. Franklin Barbecue.

[Eddie]

Yeah. His name is Barbecue Chef Aaron Franklin. Aaron Franklin. Yeah. I would love to smoke with Aaron.

[Morgan]

He's a pit master.

[Eddie]

Pit master Aaron Franklin would love to smoke with him. That'd be awesome.

[Morgan]

Oh, because he smokes brisket. Award winning brisket, dude.

[Eddie]

His brisket is so freaking.

[Morgan]

The same one that Bobby ordered brisket for us.

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Morgan]

Okay. They're all piecing together now.

[Eddie]

I would love to just kind of like. Like, not even pick his brain. I would love to just watch him smoke a brisket.

[Morgan]

So sushi and brisket, those do not go together.

[Eddie]

Don't. They don't. But like, the big guys, I don't know. Gordon Ramsay seems like he's legit. Obviously. Seems like he's legit.

[Morgan]

None of those. I just like a local guy, you know?

[Eddie]

And then Arnie Tex. Oh, from South Texas. Arnie Tex.

[Morgan]

Who's Arnie Tex?

[Eddie]

He's a guy that I follow on Instagram or TikTok. Like, his name is Arnie.

[Morgan]

Oh, yeah. And he's got a stash.

[Eddie]

Like, I love watching his videos. And honestly, I don't think that one's too far fetched. I feel like if I DM'd Arnie and be like, hey, dude, I'm gonna come down to the Valley. Let's cook. He'd be like, let's go. Bring it.

[Morgan]

Yeah. He has a million followers on YouTube and TikTok, dude.

[Eddie]

Arnie Texas legit.

[Morgan]

Arnie Tex.

[Eddie]

And sometimes he brings his mom on and he's like, me and my mom are gonna make some frijoles. And he'll just make beans with his mom.

[Morgan]

Oh, I love that.

[Eddie]

Yeah. So I'm really not. I don't know. Arnie Tech's kind of celebrity chef.

[Morgan]

I feel like all three of those you could technically make happen if you really wanted to.

[Eddie]

Pro. Probably.

[Morgan]

Especially when you go down to Austin for I Heart Country Fest. You could easily do some of those.

[Eddie]

Let's make some sushi with Tyson Cole. That'd be awesome.

[Morgan]

It's like, that's the. That's the cruise activity next year. Sushi with Eddie and Tyler Cole.

[Eddie]

Hey, that was fun too, on the cruise, right? Did you do any of those food ones?

[Morgan]

I don't think I did. I just did.

[Eddie]

I just. Just alcohol.

[Morgan]

It's not by choice. They just made me do things.

[Eddie]

No, it was by choice. No, you didn't get to choose yours.

[Morgan]

You. They didn't give us our schedule until right before, so it's not like I could have joined anything.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but, like, months before they were, hey, what would you want to do? And I was like, steak for sure. Sushi for sure.

[Morgan]

I wanted to make pizza and drink wine and do the cocktail thing, and I ended up coming to your cocktail.

[Eddie]

Did you do the pizza one?

[Morgan]

No. I don't even know when that was.

[Eddie]

Who did the pizza one?

[Morgan]

I think it was Amy.

[Eddie]

That makes no sense. One of us should have done the pizza one. The foodies.

[Morgan]

The foodies that, like.

[Eddie]

I wonder if we can double up. Like, we should double up on some of these.

[Morgan]

That would be fun because I loved being in your cocktail class.

[Eddie]

That was fun.

[Morgan]

Oh, I need a postar inspecting about videos that we need to post.

[Eddie]

It's in there somewhere.

[Morgan]

I have it.

[Eddie]

Wait, you posted the. Oh, Cuban.

[Morgan]

Yeah, your cigar one.

[Eddie]

No, no, no, the Cuban.

[Morgan]

I haven't posted any of it.

[Eddie]

You haven't? I thought I saw it.

[Morgan]

No.

[Eddie]

Oh, okay.

[Morgan]

I haven't posted anything.

[Eddie]

Yes. So spoiler. Guys, we did the. The martini. We talked about it on the espresso martini and the. The Cuban coffee.

[Morgan]

We did. I tried a Cubano coffee.

[Eddie]

Cubano. Yeah.

[Morgan]

And you tried an espresso martini. We did. I'll probably post that this weekend because I need to with the best bits, because that's what we talked about.

[Eddie]

That makes sense.

[Morgan]

Oh, my gosh. Okay, well, I gotta let Eddie get back to his family.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

Thanks for being here, Eddie.

[Eddie]

Thanks, Morgan. That was fun. Thank you guys for all the great questions. Those are great.
