Julie Stewart Banks
Are your ears bored?
Viosa
Yeah. Are you looking for a new podcast that will make you laugh, learn and say que?
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah.
Julie Stewart Banks
Then tune in to locatora radio season 10 today.
Viosa
Okay, now that's what I call a podcast. I'm Viosa. I'm Mala, the host of Locatora Radio, a radiophonic novella, which is just a.
Julie Stewart Banks
Very extra way of saying a podcast. Listen to Locatora Radio Season 10 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Israel Gutierrez
I'm Israel Gutierrez and I'm hosting a new podcast, Dub Dynasty, the story of how the Golden State warriors have dominated the NBA for over a decade.
Daniel Jeremiah
The Golden State warriors once again are NBA champions today.
Israel Gutierrez
The warriors dynasty remains alive in large part because of a scrawny 6 foot 2 hooper who everyone seems to love.
Viosa
For what Steph has done for the game. He's certainly on that Mount Rushmore.
Israel Gutierrez
Come revisit this magical warriors ride. Listen to Dub Dynasty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
Daniel Jeremiah
I wasn't aware you went to the super bowl, dude.
Viosa
Yeah, super bowl sweatshirt.
Daniel Jeremiah
That's pretty nice, man. Looks good on you.
Viosa
You can buy merch and not go to the actual game.
Daniel Jeremiah
Really?
Viosa
I'm trying to not wear it around brother, though. Bad memories. Oh, man, they got skunk 46 or something. So it seemed like I never know the exact score of things, but I know the national championship. I really didn't even watch it, but it seemed like Florida won by five this game. I watched it till the third quarter. I think it final. It was seemed like a 40 to 6 game. It was probably 40, 20.
Daniel Jeremiah
They got blowed out. Yeah. And I didn't remember that until you just told me. That's how quick we forget that it was a blowout.
Viosa
But you think about it and you just remember Chiefs got the doors blowed off.
Daniel Jeremiah
I mean, they never had a chance. Like it was over.
Viosa
It's awesome. When you say it's going to be Eagles and then it ends up being Eagles and you say the Eagles are going to kill them. But then you have people four months later say the sizzle Jinx. Guys, what about Sizz and Jinx? When I said they were going to kill him? Nobody? Oh, we don't remember that. Got it. Selective memories. Coach, over to you.
Daniel Jeremiah
I do know that that is your sensitive subject is when people say you're the sizzle Jinx. Like, I, I, I feel like that is something that you do not like. And I can tell it bothers you because every time someone says it, you bring it up and you want to point out which ones you got. Right?
Viosa
Because. And the thing with decision Jinx on this one is, guys, Duke had a 96% chance, up six points with 30 seconds left. Duke would have won the national championship. I would have been dead correct if not some overwhelming luck that just fell in the the crotch of the other team, which is what happened.
Daniel Jeremiah
You know what's crazy is if my aunt would have been born with balls, she'd have been my uncle.
Viosa
Hey, man, you know if that McDonald's, if it had a space needle on the top, it'd be called the Space Needle.
Daniel Jeremiah
That's crazy, man. That is wild. Yeah, ifs and buts and candy nuts, you know what I mean? What happened is what happened. You can't change the outcome.
Viosa
Hey, man, if this wasn't a skyscraper and we didn't have microphones, this would be a Waffle House. If that street wasn't called Broadway, man, it'd be called Freaking the Bronx.
Daniel Jeremiah
Hey, hey, it would be called Beale Street. No one would be on it because that's Memphis.
Viosa
You know they're going to be partying though, right? What you haven't been studying, there's going to be a home game for Memphis.
Daniel Jeremiah
Oh, for the playoffs?
Viosa
Yeah.
Daniel Jeremiah
Well, of course there's going to be a home game because they're going to be in the playoffs.
Viosa
Right. But just how it all shakes out, I believe because of the play in thing, Memphis will now have a home game.
Daniel Jeremiah
Is Memphis going to be in the play in?
Viosa
Yeah, because if you're the bottom four, you're in the playing game. They're, they're putting in 20 teams in the playoffs.
Daniel Jeremiah
No, no, they put in like 12 teams. I do understand that.
Viosa
Everybody's in except for there's only like.
Daniel Jeremiah
Four teams that are eliminated from the playoffs.
Viosa
Right. The Saskatchewan Timber Rattlers are not in and some other team called the Changwon Tigers are not in. Any NBA team is in the playoffs, dude.
Daniel Jeremiah
I mean, the spurs are definitely not in the playoffs, man. We went and gotten Deer and Fox and then he got hurt and Wimby got hurt and we are terrible. Let me see where. Oh, the Memphis grit. Oh, dude, it is not settled yet. The Memphis Grizzlies and the Golden State warriors are tied in. The Denver Nuggets and the LA Clippers, they all are looking at the play in game. What? Two of those. One of those teams is going to be in the play in. I don't know which one.
Viosa
They're all. There's four teams going in the play in, right?
Daniel Jeremiah
But the play in the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Sacramento Kings and the Dallas Mavericks and the Phoenix Sun. Oh, my God, guys, I don't even know when the NBA plays this next week. No, no. It could already be settled by the time this podcast is put up.
Viosa
It won't be. NBA ends this week. NHL ends this week. The Masters is this week.
Daniel Jeremiah
I understand what everything is. I understand that things are.
Viosa
People don't know the ramifications until they turn on their television and Sports center tells them. Well, guess what? Sports center doesn't exist. We tell you.
Daniel Jeremiah
We break it down.
Viosa
The Sports center we used to know doesn't exist anymore. They don't show highlights.
Daniel Jeremiah
Do you remember how good. Like that's all it used to be.
Viosa
We would set our alarms for 7am to watch the headline of Sports center with Stuart Scott. Man, the Bulls as cool as the other side of the pillow. How's it going, Cool kids? Stuart Scott.
Daniel Jeremiah
It's like mtv. MTV used to be music videos with a show occasionally mixed in. They haven't shown a music video on MTV in 15 years. I don't even understand why people still make music videos. Can someone please explain to me why music videos are still made? Why do they spend hundreds of thousands, or even maybe, I don't know, maybe $1 million on a music video? Tell me who watches music videos and where. When is the last time you watched a music video?
Viosa
There's a Riley Green one where he's banging some chick. My wife showed it to me, so a week ago.
Daniel Jeremiah
Where did you watch it?
Viosa
On her phone?
Daniel Jeremiah
No, No, I didn't. What?
Viosa
Am I being interrogated? I didn't mean like you've been deposition.
Daniel Jeremiah
I meant what platform did you watch it on? I guess YouTube.
Viosa
Yes, but I agree with you. Why are these artists spending $20,000 on a music video?
Daniel Jeremiah
It makes no sense. There's no way it's only 20,000 and.
Viosa
You know, it's even deeper and crazier than that. One of the label guys said, yeah, when we do our phones now, they. When they program a song, they try to make it so it sounds good on your phone, not necessarily in the speakers in your car, because more people listen on their phones to stuff than they do in their vehicles.
Daniel Jeremiah
Seriously?
Viosa
Yeah. And so I go, what? How does that affect me? I'm an audio guy. Leave me alone. But then I thought, wow, that was actually really deep. And so then artists are getting mad. Oh, the craft. It doesn't sound as good, but they said all these gen zers banging it on their phone while they're in high school. We want it to sound the best when they do that.
Daniel Jeremiah
You know what else I find funny? Talking about wasting money. The music videos, I feel like, are a waste of money. Another thing is that people don't know is when a new song comes out, artists or their record labels, they send stuff to the studio.
Viosa
Preach.
Daniel Jeremiah
And it's like, junk. It is absolute junk.
Viosa
How much do you think they spend on it?
Daniel Jeremiah
Well, if they're sending it to every radio station, you got to think they're sending it to every country music station in America, right? Or. Or 50% of them. And those little swag bags or whatever they are trinkets, they had to be spending $100,000 on them.
Viosa
And an example is Blake Shelton has a new song named, I don't know, Texas should have been in Texas.
Daniel Jeremiah
Never heard it.
Viosa
And he made mini vinyls. We just got this one, but you don't open your mail. And it is a very miniature version of a record that you can only play on a record player that's in a cool little collector's disc. And they gave it to us all. And it's sitting now in the radio station in my. On my desk. But that's something they would give to us.
Daniel Jeremiah
But it's a mini vinyl, so you need a mini record player. You're not even a real record player.
Viosa
I think you can play it on a regular one, but if you don't have a record player, it's completely pointless and an expense that you probably shouldn't have even made in the first place.
Daniel Jeremiah
Like, I'm trying to think of some of the stuff they've sent over the years. It's like, oh, the one.
Viosa
If a artist is doing anything with time, one time, every hour, on the hour, they brought over one time food. They delivered stuff, and it said clockwork. And they brought over, like, watches and clocks. You put in your Office.
Daniel Jeremiah
It's just random stuff that no one needs, no one wants. And it's like, why do you spend all that money? It's not gonna make me. Oh, you know what? They gave me a satchel full of fake coins. You know, money time. Oh, you know what I mean? I love that song.
Viosa
Oil money. Who had a great one? Who had a great one? Who had a great one when we first moved here?
Daniel Jeremiah
Who had a great game?
Viosa
One of the funniest props in the old studio.
Daniel Jeremiah
Who.
Viosa
We've talked about it before.
Daniel Jeremiah
Who had a good one?
Viosa
Coleswood.
Daniel Jeremiah
Now, okay. He sent a cooler and said chilling it. Okay.
Viosa
And we put a bunch of beer in it.
Daniel Jeremiah
Now, see, that is actually has a functional use.
Viosa
Correct?
Daniel Jeremiah
That cooler has a use, but still, how much did they spend on coolers? That is so much money.
Viosa
But they promoted the song.
Daniel Jeremiah
Yes, but did that make you listen to the song more?
Viosa
Who knows?
Daniel Jeremiah
No, like you just told me right now. I couldn't remember why, who sent it or what one you were talking about.
Viosa
So I agree. Some of the promotional stuff is just completely ridiculous, but when they promote it with free concert tickets, that helps.
Daniel Jeremiah
Different. Yeah, but, like, what was the one that just came? It was the roses. That was. That wasn't for me.
Viosa
That was just for Amy.
Daniel Jeremiah
And it was only for the girls. But they sent bouquets of roses, and it's like, guys, what are we doing?
Viosa
I mean, that was for a different reason.
Daniel Jeremiah
Oh.
Viosa
Might have been trying to land some digits there.
Daniel Jeremiah
I thought that was more because the song was something about roses.
Viosa
It was. But smart. If you're a dude and you make a song, heck, just market it towards women. All the radio women will want you.
Daniel Jeremiah
I guess. I don't know. I just feel like we waste a lot of money. And so when you said music videos, I just still can't believe when someone's like, oh, yeah, we shot this music video. I'm like, really? Music videos? Maybe I don't understand. Maybe I'm missing it. Maybe they put it on their Instagram and people watch it. But I just don't know people that go consume music videos now.
Viosa
But you can also make money off YouTube if they get a hundred thousand hits.
Daniel Jeremiah
Oh, so they're putting it on YouTube.
Viosa
That's the key. They don't give a crap about their Instagram. You're not getting paid there. But all this stuff's going to YouTube.
Daniel Jeremiah
So maybe that's why they. Maybe we answered full circle. Why they still make music videos. They put it on YouTube and people go watch it on YouTube. I had no idea. Hey, I learned something new every day.
Viosa
Must have been in Texas.
Daniel Jeremiah
Is it a good song?
Viosa
It is.
Daniel Jeremiah
It is a jam, huh?
Viosa
Yeah, man. Are we taking a break or. What is this?
Daniel Jeremiah
I don't know. How long has it been? I forgot. Ten and a half. You want to take a break already?
Viosa
No, no.
Daniel Jeremiah
I got a question for you. How'd you sleep last night, Ray?
Viosa
Sheesh, four hours.
Daniel Jeremiah
Oh.
Viosa
But I took a massive nap. Three hours in the afternoon, so all I needed was four.
Daniel Jeremiah
Dang.
Viosa
But those were good for yours.
Daniel Jeremiah
Oh, dude, let me tell you. I usually come on here and tell you that I slept terrible and that I woke up so many times I was unconscious.
Viosa
That means dead.
Daniel Jeremiah
No, I was dead to the world, dude. Dead to the world. It was the most beautiful sleep I've had in probably a month.
Viosa
You wake up, you got robbed.
Daniel Jeremiah
It was so amazing. There was no noises, no kids crying out, no nothing. I mean, I didn't have to get up and pee. There was no vomit stories. There was nothing. It was literally just lay there and sleep. And it was so fantastic.
Viosa
That's why you need a night nanny. Aldean 2023.
Daniel Jeremiah
I do believe someone in my hood, I think they got a night nanny.
Viosa
She.
Daniel Jeremiah
I think. But I may be wrong.
Viosa
That's something. If we didn't talk to these country artists, I would have never known about it.
Daniel Jeremiah
I never even heard of it.
Viosa
These people have a woman or man come over to their house at 8 as they're getting tucked into bed and stays up with their kids the whole night.
Daniel Jeremiah
No. No, they don't. Here's how damn rich they are. Here's the great thing about a night. What do you call night nanny or night nurse? I don't remember what they call them.
Viosa
So Aldean goes, man, you need to get you a night nanny.
Daniel Jeremiah
That's it. They. They don't have to stay awake. They pay somebody to come sleep. Yes. And then if the baby wakes up, you get up with the baby. That's what the night nanny is. The night nanny doesn't have to stay awake the whole time. The night nanny just has to be the one on call. So when the baby cries so they can get their eight hours of sleep in the other bedroom.
Viosa
Which is actually something that if you're rich, spend your money on a lot of the stuff. I say, why does this person need a sea doo in Dominican Republic? It makes no sense. They use it twice a year. Why does this person need a shuttle from the airport to the Place they're staying at when they can just do one, the generic one. Why do they need a private shuttle?
Daniel Jeremiah
I. I'm with you, actually.
Viosa
We do private shuttles.
Daniel Jeremiah
It's actually way better because.
Viosa
Ray, what the heck you trying to tell me?
Daniel Jeremiah
I thought my neighbors had one. And I hit him up and I said, oh, look at you fancies. I see you got a little night nanny. I see that Tahoe parked out front.
Viosa
And he said it was just some night panty.
Daniel Jeremiah
And he goes, no, we upgraded to a Tahoe. And I'm like, oh, my bad. Totally wrong. But I mean, what. How weird is it that you have someone come in and take care of your child so you can sleep? I thought the whole point, the whole, like, bonding moment, the struggle, like, to feel like a real parent, is those 3am when they start crying and you got to wake up, you're miserable. But that's what bonds you with other parents. If you go to other parents, you're like, oh, my gosh. And they're like, oh, little Johnny was crying all night. I got like two hours of sleep. And you're like, oh, baby Patricia. Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I'm the night nanny. Took care of her. So I got eight hours of sleep. It's like, huh, how do you bond over that? You can't even share, Swap horror stories.
Viosa
And then they go play a show for two hours and call it a job. Come on.
Daniel Jeremiah
I mean, that would be a night. I need that lifestyle party.
Viosa
I heard him say, yeah, you go play those shows. It's very not. He didn't use the word unfulfilling. But he goes, then I gotta go work on the property. So I feel like I've did something. So you're telling me your career is based off of getting on a stage and doing something that doesn't even really feel like that hard to work. So then the next day you have to go work on the property so you feel like you worked. Man, I should have been a singer.
Daniel Jeremiah
But I don't care. I don't need to feel like I worked. I like if once I do my work, even if I'm not tired and I don't feel like I work that hard, I don't need to go find something else to be like, you know what? This proves I worked hard. No, I'm good, man. I put in my 5, 8 hours, 12 hours, 26 hours, whatever it is. I don't need an extra task to make me feel like I worked. If I worked, I worked.
Viosa
But There is a difference, baser. Why are you in such a great mood, man? You want to do everything. Yeah. Today was easy compared to those S days. Yeah. Yeah. I got both my eyes open. I can see straight. What's up?
Daniel Jeremiah
Hey, I am with you. There are easy days and hard days, man.
Viosa
You seem awesome. Yeah, I didn't work today.
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah.
Viosa
It's crazy how great your attitude is when you don't have a job, when you get sent home early.
Daniel Jeremiah
I got a question, though. When you wear that super bowl shirt. Speaking of job, I'm going to wear.
Viosa
It every damn day. You know how many people have talked.
Daniel Jeremiah
To me about this question?
Viosa
You said something. Said something. Everybody keeps saying something. I go, oh, yeah, I was in nola.
Daniel Jeremiah
That's exactly.
Viosa
Guy at the gas station, hell of a game is in nola, baby.
Daniel Jeremiah
Thank you, man. You took the words out of my mouth. I want to know, when you go in public, do people like, oh, man, you were at the game. And then you're just like, nah, man. Someone gave it to me.
Viosa
No, it's a status symbol, dude. Yeah, man. I was in nola. What's up? What were you doing then? Oh, you watched on tv.
Daniel Jeremiah
It is. It's like a. It's a look at me flex without saying. It's an un. It's a unspoken flex. Like, I went to the Super Bowl. It's sort of like when someone wears a master shirt or a master's hat. You only get them at the Masters. You can't buy them online. Right.
Viosa
Thank you for the idea. I need to wear that polo tomorrow.
Daniel Jeremiah
And so you just walk around like you are. Oh, yeah. Because, you know, my buddy Garrett, he went to a practice round, and he bought me a shirt, so I wear it golfing. And people are like, oh, dude, you've been to Augusta. And I had to go, nah, man. My friend got it. Because 90% of the stuff you see, someone's friend got it. It's not actual people that have been.
Viosa
To the Masters, but it doesn't matter that you go down that path. Just lie to them.
Daniel Jeremiah
But then they're gonna ask you what it was like.
Viosa
Exactly. That's what's wrong with the Muni or the problems with the Muni. People then ask you detailed questions, and you're screwed.
Daniel Jeremiah
Like that Avery girl that I had on from Challenge Mania. That was on the Real World Portland. I was talking to her because she works at Hooters, and I said, man, what's up with Hooters? Going out of business.
Viosa
Never heard of it.
Daniel Jeremiah
And she goes, I don't know anything about that. I mean, I'm going to the Masters with the Hooters this weekend.
Viosa
So she's at the Masters, and there's some still open. There's one by me because strong. There's 30 cars by it every time I pass it.
Daniel Jeremiah
You know who they sponsor? John Daly. Guess who's playing in the Masters?
Viosa
John Daly.
Daniel Jeremiah
So I. She must be high up in Hooters if she's the one going with the Hooters representatives to the Masters.
Viosa
Is there a minimum measurement to be hired?
Daniel Jeremiah
I mean, what a freaking job. We need to be sent to the master.
Viosa
Yeah, we need to go to commercial.
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah, we need to. You know, we need to send it to. We need to send it to break. You know, we forgot to do Start the show.
Viosa
We'll start it next time.
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah, to the break. We'll start it.
Greg Rosenthal
What's up, everyone? It's Greg Rosenthal, and I'm teaming up with the king of spring, Daniel Jeremiah. He requires me to say, say that we're going to be bringing you 40s and free agents, the only podcast you'll need this NFL draft season. From DJs mock drafts to my top 101, free agents will have it covered for you with all new episodes every Thursday keeping you up to date as we head to the NFL Draft. Listen to 40s and free agents on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
Julie Stewart Banks
It's Julie Stewart Banks. I'm doing a new podcast from iHeart Podcasts and the National Hockey League, and I'm paired up with one of my favorite players, the always great quotable Nate Thompson.
Nate Thompson
I wore nine NHL sweaters, and I have story after story to share. And believe it or not, I have plenty to say, and not just about hockey.
Julie Stewart Banks
Believe me, he does. Energy Line with Nate, and JSB is the name of the podcast, and it's going to be. Well, it's going to be quite the ride. We're officially linemates, Nate. We're the Energy Line.
Nate Thompson
We'll have plenty of folks join us, Current players, some of my former teammates, hall of Famers. And wait till you see some of the connections that Julie has. She has quite the Rolodex.
Julie Stewart Banks
Okay. We'll lean into Nate's playing experience and tap into our interests away from hockey and try to do what energy lines are supposed to do. Provide an emotional boost. How do you feel about all that, Nate?
Nate Thompson
I'm vibing, Julie. I'm ready to roll.
Julie Stewart Banks
Listen to Energy Line with Nate and JSB on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Israel Gutierrez
I'm Israel Gutierrez and I'm hosting a new podcast, Dub Dynasty, the story of how the Golden State warriors have dominated the NBA for over a decade.
Daniel Jeremiah
The Golden State warriors once again are NBA champions.
Israel Gutierrez
From the building of the corps that included Klay Thompson and Draymond Green to one of the boldest coaching decisions in the history of the sport, I just.
Daniel Jeremiah
Felt like the biggest thing was to earn the trust of the players and let the players know that we were.
Viosa
Here to try to help them take the next step, not tear anything down.
Israel Gutierrez
Today, the warriors dynasty remains alive in large part because of a scrawny 6 foot 2 hooper who everyone seems to.
Viosa
Love for what Steph has done for the game. He's certainly on that, like Mount Rushmore for guys that have changed it.
Israel Gutierrez
Come revisit this magical warriors ride. This is Dove Dynasty.
Daniel Jeremiah
The Dubs dynasty is still very much alive.
Israel Gutierrez
Listen to Dub Dynasty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
Viosa
Yeah, we gotta do the intro, dude.
Daniel Jeremiah
We forgot to do the intro, dude. You did the whole first thing because your computer was not working. Like, I gotta load it, I gotta load it.
Viosa
We're gonna do it live. We are the 1, 2, 3.
Daniel Jeremiah
Sore loser. What up, everybody? I am Lunchbox. I know the most about sports. I give the sports facts, my sports opinions, because I'm pretty much a sports genius.
Viosa
Guys, real quick, before I start, Arnold actually called us. This is the voicemail he left us from the Masters in Augusta. Hey, boys, I got two pork missiles. One in my hand, one in my pants. Gonna get a $2 beer.
Julie Stewart Banks
It's awesome. Here go Tiger.
Viosa
But Tiger's not even playing in the Masters.
Daniel Jeremiah
Man. I'm gonna tell you what. Arnold has had the journey of a lifetime. He went from San Antonio in the final four and he went straight to Augusta. Don't know how he got there, if it was Greyhound, or if he took a southwest flight, flew in it to Atlanta, and then took a taxi. But he is on the grounds at Augusta. He said he would send us pictures, but then he found out that you're not allowed to have your phone inside the pearly gates of Augusta.
Viosa
Hey, y'all, it is Sizzin. I'm from the North. I'm an alpha male. I live on the north side of Nashville with a Broadway girl baser. We have 2.2 acres. We live in the country. I already said that. And we have 2.2 kids at the Vanderbilt Clinic. The electrophysiologist department checks on them. Head of that is Justin. Over to you, man.
Daniel Jeremiah
Oh, Ray. Did you know that high school, they have a new sport? It started this year and I got to witness it firsthand.
Viosa
I'm not getting in this debate.
Daniel Jeremiah
Girls flag football.
Viosa
Okay.
Daniel Jeremiah
They are now playing flag football in high school. And I watched two high school teams battle it out on the turf on Wednesday night.
Viosa
I'm thinking interesting.
Daniel Jeremiah
I'm thinking it was terrible.
Viosa
Really.
Daniel Jeremiah
I mean, Ray.
Viosa
Big Booty Judy beat Becky Boobs.
Daniel Jeremiah
I felt bad for the one school. They only had four subs, so they were playing both ways. And they were really small. Their quarterback was kind of fast, but couldn't really throw it. No one could catch it. The blue team, every girl looked like they were 6ft tall compared to the gray team. They would just throw it up and the tall girls would catch. Was 20 to nothing with about minute to go. And the gray team is still calling timeouts, trying to make a comeback. But I was glad for the gray team. They did get in the end zone with four seconds to go on the.
Viosa
Clock is zero running gamers at all.
Daniel Jeremiah
Passes, 90% run and then 10% pass.
Viosa
I would say it's different for guys because when we played in intramurals in college, majority of it was pass. I don't think we ever ran. I don't think you could run. You had to drop back and pass.
Daniel Jeremiah
I think you could. I don't know. I know we played intramurals and we got our butts kicked because we sucked.
Viosa
What were you, the Slim Reaper?
Daniel Jeremiah
I mean, I was pretty good. I mean, I didn't intercept Santana over the top. He was throwing it deep and I mean, it was a per. And I ran right between the receipt, right in front of the receiver, got it and came up the sideline. And John and Clay thought, oh, my God, we thought you were going to get laid out by that wide receiver. They're like, we didn't think. I mean, I just. Beautiful. And Santana was this big, athletic dude from South Texas, and He played football, D1, but he got homesick.
Viosa
I won't play in the NFL.
Daniel Jeremiah
He got homesick. And so he moved back. He came back. He didn't want to. He got tired. He was too far from home because he went to Florida somewhere, some small school, and was homesick. And he came back and he dominated the intramural field.
Viosa
Yeah, I. My only memory of intramurals. College team was pretty good. We had a great quarterback. He could make it rain out there. And a wide receiver. I just remember I'd made an interception in the end zone, ran it back 99 yards for a touchdown. But I was wearing cleats that were a size too big. So as I was getting in for the touchdown, my foot, my cleat. Like, you know when shoes aren't the right size, you just trip and you look like a jack a. Yeah. So I like kind of tripped and. But everybody else was on the other side of the field so they thought I did this fake trip in the end zone after I scored a touchdown. They're like, that was hilarious, dude. Nice celebration. And I just rolled with it. I didn't tell anybody. I straight up tripped because I was wearing size 11 shoes. And thank God I didn't trip. At the five that have been terrible. I was in the end zone and tripped over and fell as I'm in the end zone. On flag football there's not even tackle.
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah, I had a 15 yard pick, six to win the game. Only I picked six. And as a celebration I dove into the end zone. They threw a flag 15 yards. So then touchdown didn't count.
Viosa
Why celebrate?
Daniel Jeremiah
I mean taunting. Didn't realize you could do that in flag football. I was like, what's the big deal?
Viosa
And you don't realize on TV we don't in person that 99 yards I.
Daniel Jeremiah
Ran, it's a long way.
Viosa
Took forever. I don't know how nobody caught me. I'd say probably 10 times. I thought, oh, he's going to get me. He's going to get me. Shoes are too big. Shoes are too big. Are we the area yet? Okay, here we go. Up hand zone. Fall over. Oh, great. Touchdown. Thanks. It was my shoes. They tripped me. Ah.
Daniel Jeremiah
How's it going?
Viosa
Touchdown. That is forever.
Daniel Jeremiah
Well, I'll tell you what, they make it look fun on the TV when you dive in the end zone, like celebrating. And when I did my dive, I'm like, yeah. Boom. Landed on my shoulder. Mike, that hurts a lot more than it looks on TV. And then I got the 15 yard taunting and it didn't even count. Really drove me up a wall. That really made me mad. So the touchdown didn't count. I landed on my shoulder for nothing and we ended up, I think it was a tie. I think they tied the game. I don't even know if we went to overtime or how it worked. But the time ran out. I know in regulation because we got the interception. But the winning touchdown didn't count. Maybe we lost, maybe it wasn't even tied. Maybe we were down three, maybe we're down one, I don't know. But that was supposed to be the winning play and I was celebrating, so I dove into the end zone and it was freaking taunting and it didn't count. I'll never forget it because I landed on my right shoulder. Hurt like hell.
Viosa
I'll never forget it. I would go work out before our intramural football game and then I'd play intramural so I'd be all ripped and everything. And I thought I was so awesome. They just had me running little seven and outs. I was Travis Kelsey, homeless version. So all I would do is pick up four yards on a second first or second down. And then we do the deep bombs. Yeah, I was never Randy Moss. I was never Javante Devonte Adams. I was never Justin Jefferson. Every single time I was a conqueror for the Titans, I made five.
Daniel Jeremiah
Oh, you're Wes Welker, but he's even.
Viosa
A better position than me, dude. I was. Who's the guy that never. Trailon Burks for the Titans. He gets five yards. That was me. So they just used me for a better chance of getting a first down on second. I never got the glory because they didn't even guard you. If you ran a five yard route in flag football, they don't guard you. So I was the guy jacked after working out at the gym. That would make five yards. And then all the girls on the side are like, hey, so what's going on? Are you going to the mall later?
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah, I got thrown on a team with a bunch of people from the dorms, like. And so this dude John was, ended up being my roommate. Later he was like, hey man, we're going to start. We're going to practice on Tuesday nights. I looked at him, I said, practice? Are you serious? We're going to practice. We're in college, bro. We're going to practice. Well, apparently everybody practiced. I didn't realize this intramural flag football was a big deal. People practiced.
Viosa
Yeah.
Daniel Jeremiah
And maybe that's why we weren't very good. And maybe we just had a lot of people that didn't give a crap because we practiced. But we weren't. We still sucked. And we had this one guy, Jamal on our team and he was talking about how good he is. He's coming out, he's got the gloves on his hands. You know what I mean? Like, wow, he's going to be so good. And one we play our first game and he. We throw him the ball and he drops it, and he gets up, and he's just limping, and we're like, oh. And we. He gets his arm around my shoulder, and he puts his arm around Clay's shoulders, and we're helping to the sideline. We're like, hamstring. And he's like, nah, man, I think I sprained my finger.
Viosa
Yeah, go take care of it. There's a. There's a corner over there next to the volleyball tent.
Daniel Jeremiah
So what do you. Well, why are you limping? It hurts. It hurts. I mean, I thought he blew a hamstring, dude. And he said he sprained his finger.
Viosa
Nobody tells you this, though, but freshman year of intramurals. Careful. Because everybody's still living their high school glory. None of them made it to college sports. So they. If it doesn't matter what it is they're doing, they're going 100%. Softball, football, the basketball, soccer. Guys, none of it matters. It all should just be for fun. That should be the building, the buddy, the bro, building system, camaraderie. But there's still guys that think they're playing D1 and they'll hit you even though it's. Hey, it was flag, man. I don't think we're supposed to be tackling, though. Thanks for the shoulder to my nuts. Oh, yeah, it's flag, dude. Thanks for coming over the top like Cooper flag and trying to block me. Guys, we're in a gym. I thought we're just trying to look good for the chicks. So, yeah, there's guys that still think they're playing in March, that are still playing for the playoff system of 12 teams. They think they're still playing for Omaha. They're not. I'll hang up and listen.
Daniel Jeremiah
The girls in our dorm, though, they were really good. They put a squad together. Gabby, Gigi, Anna, Jessica, Andrea, Wendy. And they would win the whole school. They. They win all of utsa, and they would go to, like, regionals every year.
Viosa
I could wear a wig.
Daniel Jeremiah
I could be Leah. It was amazing. And Anna. I think her name was Anna. She was the quarterback. She could chunk the ball. She was very athletic. And then she went on to marry Nick Barnes from my high school. I mean, I don't even know how they met. She don't know how they met. But after college, I look on Facebook, and she's married to this dude I went to high school with. I'm like, what? How did that happen? They had, like, five kids. I don't know if they're still together. Have no idea. Having checked on them, but it's a great story.
Viosa
So they took a intramural college sport and now it's a real one that they play in high school. And you watched it?
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah, I watched it and not on purpose, dude. I was the creep on the sideline though because I had a soccer game at 6:15.
Viosa
Hurry, I need an alibi. Honey, get here.
Daniel Jeremiah
Say we have kids stuff and it was across town, so I'm fighting traffic. It took me 38 minutes in traffic to get to this game. And my game is at 6:15. It says you arrive at 6:11 and it's taking me all these back roads to fight the traffic. I pull in the parking lot at 6:11pm and the parking lot is jam packed. I can't find a parking spot.
Viosa
I thought the soccer arena closed.
Daniel Jeremiah
This is outdoor now because it's sunny.
Viosa
Well I'm Nice weather, same boat as the truck drivers we don't dang know.
Daniel Jeremiah
So I'm like oh my gosh, I finally find a parking spot and there's these people leaving and they have uniforms on. So I'm assuming it was a girls soccer game.
Viosa
Hey homie, can I take your parking spot?
Daniel Jeremiah
Thank you G. No, I didn't say any of that.
Viosa
Oh, I thought you're trying to relate with the gen zers. Hey, is it Gucci if I pull up?
Daniel Jeremiah
Hey, can I, can I park in your low emission vehicle spot? Man?
Julie Stewart Banks
Creep. Get out of here.
Daniel Jeremiah
Hey, I like that. I like the environment. Just like you like the environment, man.
Viosa
Hey, am I in a TikTok video or can I park?
Julie Stewart Banks
You're a creep. Golf.
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah. So I roll up and there's these girls leaving this opposing team. So I'm assuming it was a soccer game.
Viosa
And how's it going hoes?
Daniel Jeremiah
I thought okay, cool, cool, cool. Soccer. But then I realized soccer season is pretty. It's probably over by now. Pretty much. So I get out there and I'm like oh, and they're just now starting a flag football game. I'm like wait, what? So there was one game earlier and then now there's another game. Our game was supposed to start at 6:15. The flag football game was starting at 6:15. They had double booked the field.
Viosa
Yeah, yeah. But the only thing creepier is you stand there with binoculars.
Daniel Jeremiah
Oh no, no, I was on the sideline man. Like all the soccer. Like there was like two, four, six teams because there's three soccer fields they make and so we're all just there on the sideline watching this flag football game. And I'm surprised the cops that were there didn't say, hey, can you guys move back up to the stands? But they let us just sit on the sideline and watch the game. And we had to sit there for an hour until our game started. So our game started an hour later than it was supposed to, and we watched high school girls flag football.
Viosa
I'm for it. Double bookings, guys, get these kids out. People are in shape. That's America. Nobody on their couches anymore. It's more active. You know what we knock Pickleball. I mean, I don't. I just think some people, like.
Daniel Jeremiah
I.
Viosa
Have seen how pickleball is supposed to be. You play with your chick, you play. That's what it needs to be. And the reason I don't like it around my neighborhood is because it's an elitist sport.
Daniel Jeremiah
Is it?
Viosa
I don't know. Some people in Austin that I follow, they think, like, they're going to be the next Andy Roddick pickleball edition. I'm like, guys, step back. I get you started some company, and you now have a pickleball league. Everything will be okay. My point is this. Take a step back. But it's good. Everybody's being active. You knock all these sports, Knock the train or the. The train, knock the girls playing, flag knocking it right? Knock it all you want. I'm glad people are active, and I'll hang up and listen because we were on a bad path.
Daniel Jeremiah
Man, I love to see them out there playing. I just was a little frustrated that I had to sit there and watch the game and wait for my soccer game for an extra hour. So as we're. As the girls are walking off the field, we're walking onto the field, and a couple of the girls are laughing. They're like, oh, my God. They're like, what time were you guys supposed to start? And I'm like, you guys are in high school. I can't talk to you. And.
Viosa
I dated your mom's how's it going, Lunchbox.
Daniel Jeremiah
And she was like, no, no. Like, did we hold you guys up? And I'm like, no, no. I'm not having anybody think we're flirting. I'm not talking to you. And one of the girls on my team was like, oh, we were supposed to play at 6:15. They were like, oh, we're so sorry. And the girl goes, oh, we're not mad at you. It's not your fault.
Viosa
Thank you, dad Bod. How's it going, lunch box?
Daniel Jeremiah
And she was like, well, good luck, Boomer.
Viosa
Hey, what are y'all ginz ears? How's it going, Lunchbox?
Daniel Jeremiah
And then my, the girl on my team goes, oh, congratulations on your guys's win.
Viosa
Thank you. Yeah, thank you. Yeah, we're a little bit older. How's it going, lunchbox?
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah, yeah, I'm like more than almost three times your age. No, no, not three times. Just twice. May almost three times maybe. I mean, they may have been 16, 15. Oh, man, if they're 15, then I am pretty much right. At three times their age, that's ugly.
Viosa
Yeah, but don't think it like that, dude. I mean, I chill with Boomer and Boomers that age. Yeah, but that's like he's, you know, what's the difference? But what's the difference between me being a creep hanging out with somebody that's my family, or you being a creep just talking to somebody that's walking off.
Daniel Jeremiah
The football field and I'm going on there to play soccer and she is stopping me to chat. Her parents are probably up in the stands. Like, what does this do? Talking to my daughter out on the field? That's.
Viosa
It's all in your eye, your head. Perception is reality, but it's all in your head, dude. Because I don't have those thoughts. And I hang out with boomer and he's 25 years younger than me.
Daniel Jeremiah
But he's your family.
Viosa
Nobody knows that when I'm going to get an ice cream with Boomer at. At the local joint, Bobby's Ice Cream, and I'm licking it down right on the street corner with a 17 year old kid nobody knows driving by, that he's my nephew.
Daniel Jeremiah
He looks like your son then. That's fine.
Viosa
No, he. Look, he's taller than me, though. It looks like I'm creeping on an ice cream joint.
Daniel Jeremiah
They know when I'm walking out of the soccer field that this girl is not my kin, not my family, not anything. And if mom and dad see me out there talking to her, they think I've stopped their daughter to have a conversation. Yeah, like, hey, I like the way you play football. No, thanks. I'm not going to end up like these teachers do in the back of cop cars. I mean, have you seen the latest one?
Viosa
Yeah, the lady bang. The kid gets arrested. Her husband's in the car and doesn't know why she's getting arrested and she.
Daniel Jeremiah
Doesn'T know why she's getting arrested. She's like, what am I? Is there anything you need to get out of the car? And she's like, am I Going somewhere.
Viosa
Then it dawns on her in the cop car. She's getting arrested for hooking up with a 15 year old.
Daniel Jeremiah
She starts bawling her eyes out, talking about how she's going to vomit. And the guy's like, do you want a bag? And she's like, yes, I want a bag. And she knows her life is over. And then all this stuff comes out about the manifesto. Like she's been keeping a journal of their relationship in her phone. And it is the most bizarre thing I have ever heard in my life. It is like, oh my gosh, I can't believe you cheated on me with that girl. You know, the one you said you were just friends with and you're just messing with my head. And I swear I was never going to let another boy f with my head. And you're sitting here effing with my mind. The one person that would have stuck with you forever and through everything. It was like you're talking like how dare he like make out with another 15 year old and you're mad about it. It was, it's crazy. And to keep a diary. It's like she was stuck in her high school mind. But like how does that happen?
Viosa
I don't know man. I never had a hot teacher, so.
Daniel Jeremiah
No, no, but what? No, no, I understand.
Viosa
I. Was it just me or were our teachers the only ones that were all 70 years old?
Daniel Jeremiah
Dude, we had a couple hot ones. My second grade teacher was a smoke show.
Viosa
Well, this girl that got in trouble, was she hot?
Daniel Jeremiah
Smoke show.
Viosa
Ok, that's what I just saw the police footage. I didn't see her glammed up so I was just curious if you'd seen.
Daniel Jeremiah
But even in her police she looked pretty good.
Viosa
I don't think we had a teacher that was above a 4.
Daniel Jeremiah
Okay, but what I'm.
Viosa
What a wild scenario to have a hot teacher. I was never presented that Mrs. Viv, Mrs. Wills, Mrs. Willis.
Daniel Jeremiah
I mean she had Mrs. Willis in fifth grade.
Viosa
She was 85 years old and I changed the name for reasons being. She was 85 years old and there was rumors that she drank Bailey's in her coffee. Easily close to 90. That's the type of teachers I was dealing with in Michigan.
Daniel Jeremiah
I just, I understand.
Viosa
You ever think about crossing that line?
Daniel Jeremiah
No, no, no. I, I, I get it.
Viosa
So I was never tempted.
Daniel Jeremiah
Here's my thing. I understand it from that 15 year old boy's perspective.
Viosa
Hold on a second guys. Ms. Willow's looking pretty damn hot at 85. I'll be late for practice, don't check the bleachers.
Daniel Jeremiah
I understand it from the 15 year old boy's perspective.
Viosa
Okay, I get.
Daniel Jeremiah
Okay, I want to understand how this 26 year old hottie.
Viosa
Guys, I've got an appointment with Mr. Vivi.
Daniel Jeremiah
What?
Viosa
He's teaching me math.
Daniel Jeremiah
This 26 year old hottie goes for a fit. Like, explain that to me. Like, this lady is not. Is beautiful. She's a good looking chick. Like, good looking.
Viosa
All right, we got to take a break. We're not going to judge how hot this chick was that is now in jail in our prison system because of the R word.
Daniel Jeremiah
No, no, I want to know why. Like, how does that happen? Like, how does she get to the point where she is hitting on a.
Viosa
15 year old because she's an attractive teacher? I've never been in an attractive teacher.
Daniel Jeremiah
I've.
Viosa
I've never been a student that had an attractive teacher. So I don't know how that situation presents itself. Maybe at hot. At schools in California. There's hot teachers. In Michigan, Every teacher is 70 and aged.
Daniel Jeremiah
You're not, you're not. You're not even looking at it from the right perspective. How does she.
Viosa
My Spanish teacher? Yeah, Mrs. Hinsu, bro, she was 87 and she spoke Spanish. We didn't even speak the same language. I'm telling you, there was no chance in hell you could ever even start a relationship with these people.
Daniel Jeremiah
My buddy, my buddy, he went somewhere in South America for vacation and he met some chick that spoke only Spanish. And he's like, dude, I think this is the one. And I'm like, dude, you can't even communicate with her. Like, you can't. And he was like, no, no, we're going to keep in touch. We're going to keep in touch. Like, it was amazing. Like, he spent two nights with her in South America. He's like, this is gonna be great. Got her phone number. But she spoke Spanish, he spoke English. I don't even know how they talked. Like, I don't understand how they spent two nights together because she literally spoke no English.
Viosa
Not to get you off your point. I dated a couple girls in Costa Rica. Not dated. Went on a date with them. That spoke Spanish. It's miserable. You think it's funny and you're cool. It's. You're cool until two sentences later of the Spanish, you know, and you're just standing there looking at each other. No amount of alcohol can overcome that awkwardness. Any girl that speaks your language is better than somebody that you have the biggest communication barrier with ever because you just sit there and stare at each other and you. How many times can you say there are so many, so many things you can say to somebody you don't speak the same language as. And it gets awkward real quick. Especially when you had a stomach issue. I think it was from the bread. What were we saying about the teacher in high school?
Daniel Jeremiah
I just want to know how she gets to that point. I mean, the text messages she was sending to this 15 year old were, oh my gosh, the sex with you is so amazing. It's always so passionate. This morning sex was not that long, but it was so good. Like where does she get to the point where she is going after a 15 year old? Dude, I. There's stories in the news all the time of these teachers doing it, but I need to know how it happens.
Viosa
It starts with a hot teacher. That's where it starts.
Daniel Jeremiah
I understand the hot teacher, but how does the hot teacher allow it to happen? The hot teacher has to say no to a 15 year old. How does the hot teacher fall in love with a 15 or 16 year old? Explain it.
Viosa
They should. There should be a hot teacher database. Check in on them every week.
Daniel Jeremiah
Check their phones, check their emails, check.
Viosa
Everything with the Michigan teachers. They're in the clear.
Daniel Jeremiah
But the problem is sometimes it's ugly teachers. These kids go for the ugly teachers. I've seen it. It just blows my mind that this woman was so hot and she is so in love with this 16 year old. Talking about like, you know, there's going to be one day when we are, we're okay to be in each other's lives because we're going to be in each other's lives forever. It may not be romantically, but we're. We care too much about each other for us not to talk anymore. It's like, what is going on with you?
Viosa
My guidance counselor, who I would spend time with talking about colleges, was in her 70s. And I'm gonna go fax this for you to your second choice of a college. Okay, I'll see you later, Ray. That's what I had to deal with. There was never a temptation.
Daniel Jeremiah
Ray.
Viosa
What about the guys?
Daniel Jeremiah
I mean, Ms. Benton, she wasn't hot, but she was cute. I mean, what other hot teachers do we have? I don't really know many, man. We had Mrs. Whiteside, she was 85 years old. Like she was so old. She taught my buddy's mom when she was in high school. So that, I mean, that tells you how old she was. And she was still our teacher. And her coffee breath was the nastiest thing I've ever smelled. Can you not do that in my mouth?
Viosa
They all loved reading, wore glasses, just weren't funny, talked about weird stuff of the news and stuff, and just had nothing in common with them. And how do these people start relationships?
Daniel Jeremiah
Does the 15 year old make a move first or is the teacher had to make the move? Teacher has to make the move, right?
Viosa
The one lady, Mrs. Boyle, she was so old, she had a wig. These ladies were older than ladies at church. My teachers. That's how much I loved going to school. Dude, it was miserable. All right, we got a roll. All right, get in here.
Daniel Jeremiah
We'll take a break and we'll be right back.

Israel Gutierrez
I'm Israel Gutierrez, and I'm hosting a new podcast Dub Dynasty. The story of how the Golden State warriors have dominated the NBA for over a decade.
Daniel Jeremiah
The Golden State warriors once again are NBA champions.
Israel Gutierrez
From the building of the corps that included Klay Thompson and Draymond Green to one of the boldest coaching decisions in the history of the sport.
Viosa
I just felt like the biggest thing.
Daniel Jeremiah
Was to earn the trust of the players and let the players know that.
Viosa
We were here to try to help.
Daniel Jeremiah
Them take the next step, not tear anything down.
Israel Gutierrez
Today, the warriors dynasty remains alive in large part because of a scrawny 6 foot 2 hooper who everyone seems to.
Viosa
Love for what Steph has done for the game. He's certainly on that, like Mount Rushmore for guys that have changed it.
Israel Gutierrez
Come revisit this magical warriors ride. This is Dub Dynasty.
Daniel Jeremiah
The Dubs dynasty is still very much alive.
Israel Gutierrez
Listen to Dub Dynasty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
Viosa
Started. It started it.
Daniel Jeremiah
No, no, we, we just came back from commercial. But my question is, how much of the Masters are you going to watch Saturday, Sunday? Like, are you going to sit there all day? Is it. Oh, I'm only waiting till the final round. What do we got?
Viosa
So I'm a romantic. Give me a minute if you got one.
Daniel Jeremiah
I got it. Do you have any romantic music?
Viosa
Yeah, I can do this one right here. It's our crime podcast and I have.
Daniel Jeremiah
Is this like a murder?
Viosa
Sure.
Daniel Jeremiah
Snapped.
Viosa
Yeah.
Daniel Jeremiah
Okay.
Viosa
I have no other romance music.
Daniel Jeremiah
Okay. No, I just wondered.
Viosa
That's approved. I mean, unless this is. That's not romance.
Daniel Jeremiah
That's not romance. Okay.
Viosa
There's no music, guys. You guys don't give a rip about music. So I haven't been betting. I've been trying to do. I have a futures bet. I have a futures bet. I haven't been doing the day to day betting. Me and Bazer decided on it a couple months ago. No day to day bet.
Daniel Jeremiah
Congratulations.
Viosa
Well, I haven't watched golf in two months since I haven't done the day to day betting. So that tells me the gambling is the reason I was watching it. So now we get to the Masters tournament. There's a lot of big names. I wanted to do some research so I could make a prediction and people could either love me or hate me, make fun of me, say, this isn't Jinx one direction or the other. So I did say Hovland's gonna win because he had a great practice round. And I did say it's gonna be a no namer or Hovland. So I Have that. So it's some rooting interest, but I have no money on it. ESPN plus, are they involved? Cause I have that and I may try to get its money's worth. Or is this the thing where the Masters has total control and you can only watch it online and it. The only times it's going to air is on CBS at 2:00 on Saturday. Otherwise you got to watch it on your computer. If that's the case, I may just be checking scores and then I'll probably watch it Saturday afternoon and watch it all day Sunday afternoon. So that's it. That's, that's, that's my take on the Masters. First time watching golf in three months. I'll hang up and listen over to you. What's your take?
Daniel Jeremiah
I don't know how they do it. I don't know if you can only watch it online, but I know that if you watch online. Shane Bacon is the voice of the featured group. Shout Out. Shane Bacon from Longview, Texas. He is the brother of Alicia Bacon who went to Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas. That is how I know Alicia used to date my roommate John. And then Shane was really good at golf. We talked about him all the time. Then he used to write reviews. But I don't know how to watch it. Like here's the problem with the Masters. Like they make it so hard to watch. They should just have it on TV from the first guy that tees off till the last guy that tees off.
Viosa
Well, there's a way to know. I should have actually done one second of prep. ESPN plus, right?
Daniel Jeremiah
No, no, I'm talking just have it on ESPN the first two rounds and CBS the minute they tee off in the morning on Saturday and Sunday. Have it on tv. This is the most watched golf tournament of the year.
Viosa
I should have done one second research. It's on ESPN plus. So unless you have ESPN plus, I bet you can't watch it on espn. You can't watch it on the Golf Channel and it will only be on CBS and at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Which is exactly what I just said.
Daniel Jeremiah
Why do we have to wait till 2pm? Why not cover it all day, all day? Have Masters coverage from make it so easy for people to get so I can sit there and watch it. I don't like jumping through hoops. And ESPN plus may be the worst, and I mean worst streaming service in the history of streaming services.
Viosa
Only had it for golf gambling a year ago. Got rid of it, got it back. And I think we Only get it now because we have a Kroger membership at Disney something and it's for free. Over to you.
Daniel Jeremiah
I try to watch anything on ESPN plus and it freezes every 10 seconds.
Viosa
What do you mean?
Daniel Jeremiah
Oots it rebound?
Viosa
Is it just ass, kit, ball, everything?
Daniel Jeremiah
Ufc. I buy a UFC fight, it freezes. It is so horrible. Horrible.
Viosa
That's why I did have it for one of those fights where they made you get ESPN and then you had to pay an additional $80. And I think it was to see Suga didn't freeze, though it was good. We watched at the neighbor's house. Watching at Dodds, it was banging.
Daniel Jeremiah
Well, mine is always banging, except for when it freezes and freezes and freezes. So eventually I have to get my computer out, turn on ESPN plus and. And plug it into the tv and so it'll go to the TV from my computer. Then it works most of the time. But if you just try to go on your TV and watch ESPN plus, it is worse than damn frozen.
Viosa
Well, and speaking of freezing and stuff, so we got an issue at the house. The country's been awesome. Internet, WI Fi banging, cell phones banging was a worry of mine, guys. Country life might even be better in city. WI fi's banging. I can stream porn. I can stream anything. So let me say this, though. What we've been dealing with is it gets fuzzy. So, you know, the picture quality is high def 3600. I made that up. It'll go down to high def 100 in White Lotus. You can't even tell the Lotus or the characters. And so. But now it fixed itself. So I was thinking it was the TVs and we were wondering, is it our cable provider? I honestly believe I. We had thought at one point our TVs were too far from the WI Fi router box. Do we need another router box in another room? Which we've done. It works better. Wife works from home. WI fi is a big deal for us. Shut up. But now they just work randomly it a whole week of White Lotus. I'm telling you, I would turn it on and say, are they in Thailand or are they down the street? I can't see the screen. And then it fixed itself. So I understand your problems. Sometimes they just go away.
Daniel Jeremiah
No, not on ESPN plus. It never goes away. I try to watch a Kansas basketball. I don't even want to talk about that team. This basketball team that I cheered for, I tried to turn into their games when it wasn't on the regular channel. And I swear To God. I would. I would see every third play because it was freeze, and they would jump to where the live action is, then freeze and jump to live action. And you just turn it off.
Viosa
I was going to say you. There's no way you stuck with it.
Daniel Jeremiah
No. Hell, no. I get so frustrated, and I tell my wife, and I get so bad. I'm like, technology is so stupid. We rely so much on this crap, and then it doesn't ever freaking work. And then I think, it doesn't work for me. That's what I tell her. And she tells me, I'm gonna. I'm like, I guarantee you, I'm the only one that has this problem. Technology hates me. It does not want to work for me. It doesn't want me to watch the UFC fight. It doesn't want to watch that basketball team that I love. It doesn't like me. No one else has these problems, which is not true. But in that moment, you feel like.
Viosa
Technology is out to get you and technology. Thing of it is, do you rewind? I get ESPN plus. You can't do that. But for some of the others, you know, you can rewind, and sometimes it fixes the problem.
Daniel Jeremiah
I did do that on Netflix.
Viosa
I did, too.
Daniel Jeremiah
When? The stupidest fight of all time.
Viosa
And did it work?
Daniel Jeremiah
It did.
Viosa
It did. With Tyson and our boy Logan. Oh, my God.
Daniel Jeremiah
What the. I mean, lawmaker.
Viosa
What is it? Logan American.
Daniel Jeremiah
I mean, how stupid are we to Paul American. Paul American.
Viosa
New stupid show that they have.
Daniel Jeremiah
But that is their. I'm not watching it.
Viosa
I watched one episode.
Daniel Jeremiah
Is it terrible? Yeah.
Viosa
The parents shouldn't be included in it makes no sense. It's cool to see how rich they are and they are given some real. But, guys, I don't know what works. I don't know why the Kardashians is interesting, and I can even watch it and I think find it interesting. I don't know why Paul American is just. They're very, very wealthy, and it shows a little bit of the stuff where my take is, was this. It showed when they actually started being YouTubers and they conflict. They were against each other, pitted against each other. That's how they grew both their YouTubes. They had a competition now they've kind of joined forces, but they're always fighting, so it just works. The conflict is neutral.
Daniel Jeremiah
Interesting. So question, were they really natural? Right. Were they rich before?
Viosa
No. Dirt poor.
Daniel Jeremiah
They didn't grow up rich.
Viosa
No. They just started doing. They always were going to be TV guys. The parents gave him a camcorder and they always put stuff on the Internet. Always, always. Then the advent of the YouTube and it took off, blew up.
Daniel Jeremiah
So what was their YouTube?
Viosa
It was like, oh, you want, you want to know? The advent of something that blew them, Blew them up and got them rich.
Daniel Jeremiah
I think I know what. When they hung in the.
Viosa
No, I mean, no, no. They were already popular, but that was news worthy. And that eventually kind of canceled them, but then eventually blew them up.
Daniel Jeremiah
Okay.
Viosa
But guess what really skyrocketed them financially?
Daniel Jeremiah
I don't know.
Viosa
Merchandise. They go, yeah, one time we just realized, we just thought, why not put this, put this up, Sold like thousands and hundreds of thousands of it. And they're like, overnight we made millions. He said the one moment when they started making millions was when they just thought, why not make merchandise for people to buy?
Daniel Jeremiah
Please.
Viosa
I go, no, I'm sitting there crying, dude, watching Paul American.
Daniel Jeremiah
My question is. So on their YouTube channel, before they joined forces, like they never really joined.
Viosa
Forces, but they always said, hey, I got 200 million subs. I mean, you got. Oh, I got 194 subs. And then they just do stupid stuff.
Daniel Jeremiah
Like, would they do the same stupid stuff or were they like, okay, I'm going to do push ups. And he would put how many he got on his YouTube channel and then the other brother would put how many he did on his. And you had to watch both videos to see who won?
Viosa
No, they would just each have their own angles. And I think one of the dudes, girlfriends, they break up. And then the other brother dated the brother's ex.
Daniel Jeremiah
No.
Viosa
So then the conflict was just natural.
Daniel Jeremiah
So like, so do they like each other now?
Viosa
There's. And then. And they were really real with this. He would say, dude, he's sitting here texting me about the fight, saying that it looks like it's going to be stupid. I'm like, I don't need negativity. He would be, he would say, because he did an interview, one of the brothers do an interview and be like, ah, I think it's all hype. It's me, stupid. He calls me, goes, hey, I'm trying to sell this fight, you idiot. You can't say that it's going to be a stupid fight. So they give you stuff like that. It's fine, it's fine. If there's nothing else in the world, watch it. But, but yeah, it's, it's. I feel like it's natural conflict.
Daniel Jeremiah
I got to say this. And I'm out.
Viosa
Yeah.
Daniel Jeremiah
I watched one episode what channel is it on?
Viosa
Cinemax.
Daniel Jeremiah
Don't have that. I don't have it.
Viosa
We're so picky now with our quality of television, but I'm not even telling. I. I'm not one of these people that are so righteous and believes in their shows. I don't care if you watch it or not. I watched one episode that was fine.
Daniel Jeremiah
No, I don't care. That's what I'm saying.
Viosa
I don't care if nobody watches White Lotus. I enjoy the show. I like watching it. I don't give a rip. I don't even recommend it to people.
Daniel Jeremiah
I know you're.
Viosa
But I am offended. People that know me, I love vacation, I love tropical resorts. I love hotels. I love all of that. Guys, why would you not recommend White Lotus to me? It's a resort and a tropical destination. Every single show. That's my shows. I couldn't give a rip. People like White Lotus. Oh, I didn't really like it. I don't care. I love it. Best show on television by far.
Daniel Jeremiah
I love.
Viosa
But Paul, American watch the first episode to learn about their history brief. Probably don't got to stick around, but the one one's dating a figure skater. That's like a world class figure skater. She's gonna be fighting for the championships next year.
Daniel Jeremiah
Oh, yeah? Where's she from?
Viosa
Sweden. Somewhere overseas. Private jet. Life. And then the other guys. Dayton, man. But yeah, they're dating like supermodels. But.
Daniel Jeremiah
Well, the ones give him having a baby, right?
Viosa
Yeah.
Daniel Jeremiah
I don't know which one that is, but we'll take a break. We'll be right back.

Daniel Jeremiah
The Golden State warriors once again are NBA champions.
Israel Gutierrez
From the building of the core that included Klay Thompson and Draymond Green to one of the boldest coaching decisions in the history of the sport.
Viosa
I just felt like the biggest thing.
Daniel Jeremiah
Was to earn the trust of the players and let the players know that.
Viosa
We were here to try to help.
Daniel Jeremiah
Them take the next step, not tear anything down.
Israel Gutierrez
Today, the warriors dynasty remains alive in large part because of a scrawny 6 foot 2 hooper who everyone seems to.
Viosa
Love for what Steph has done for the game. He's certainly on that, like Mount Rushmore for guys that have changed it.

Viosa
Ray, that was all over the place corner.
Daniel Jeremiah
I kind of liked it. I kind of liked it. But anyway, my master's watching this weekend. I. I guess I'll get a little bit in on Saturday, but we have a soccer game, we have a baseball game, so that'll be. Make it a little difficult. Sunday, I believe the calendar is wide open and so Sunday, when the leaders tee off, if it's a. I just want it to be where there's three or four guys battling. I don't want it to be someone up by five. If someone's up by five strokes, I probably won't watch.
Viosa
Heck no.
Daniel Jeremiah
Like, that's unwatchable. That's not fun. It's boring. They don't do anything. They just play it safe. They don't have to do anything spectacular. I want it where the guys in the final group are separated by a stroke or two. So one birdie and bogey flips the whole thing, flips it on its head so that I can watch. And if that is the case, I will watch the final round. The entire, like, from the start to the finish of the leaders teeing off. I'll watch it all.
Viosa
Speaking of start to finish, has there been in our lifetimes a wire to wire winner at the Masters? No, it was one. But it's typically a tournament where if you lead it the first day, you're not going to lead it the last day.
Daniel Jeremiah
Only five in history.
Viosa
Five in history. One in our day and age.
Daniel Jeremiah
Jordan Spieth, obviously you were talking to Kickoff Kevin, because he was telling me the same stuff.
Viosa
Yes, we were talking.
Daniel Jeremiah
He said you and Ray looked at. He said, you got that? You. You two looked it up and you were talking. He goes, how crazy is that? In 80 whatever years, there's only been five or four. Whatever, he said. But we got an email. You ready?
Viosa
Yeah. Yo.
Daniel Jeremiah
Hey, coachers. Been loving the pod lately. Since you've been to North Dakota and Minot. There's a trial going on about a murder that happened 18 years ago. A roommate was murdered in her apartment, but lack of evidence made the case go cold. The other roommate was the main suspect due to her alleged toxic nature and inconsistent police statements for years. You can find it on Court TV if you're interested. It's called the Toxic Roommate Trial. Just wanted to send in my yearly email and wish you both well. Keep up the great work and maybe I'll make it out to the next convention. Mitch from North Dakota.
Viosa
Thanks, Mitch. And that trial, they found out who did it. Really? It was somebody from the sore losers nation.
Daniel Jeremiah
That's not true.
Viosa
What if we did our own investigating and it led to that?
Daniel Jeremiah
That wouldn't be good. Do we have a lot of listeners in North Dakota?
Viosa
You think you're the one that went out to eight Bears?
Daniel Jeremiah
That was a great place, man. I did meet some listeners and one of them got arrested that night.
Viosa
Part of the nation, man.
Daniel Jeremiah
I mean, he was celebrating his 21st birthday and he were playing blackjack. Next, I got news in handcuffs and no idea. What's up, coachers? I was listening to the Friday pod about the Chester Molester van and had to tell you about my embarrassing vehicle experience. When I was a senior in high school, my boyfriend and his dad bought A Porter potty company. And since my twin brother and I shared a car, sometimes I needed picked up and so my boyfriend would pick me up in the company truck with five porter potties on the back. Luckily I wasn't embarrassed, but other students always made fun of me. Keep up the average work coachers. Mackenzie from Ohio.
Viosa
Smell you later. That is funny. That is the I didn't think anything could top a Chester Molester pickup. That'll take the cake I think.
Daniel Jeremiah
Can you imagine pulling up porta potties on the back smelling like ass and then. Come on honey, get in the truck.
Viosa
Just the kids too. The porta potties as smelliest plumbers. You don't want dad pulling up in that paint truck. Chester Molester truck semi is probably pretty ba if dad just brings the top.
Daniel Jeremiah
That would be pretty cool.
Viosa
Yep.
Daniel Jeremiah
Hey, guess who's back. Back again fellas. And Ray. What up? So Catnip. Catnip and I are booking a place a placemaker spot in Nashville MLK weekend and get just wanted to make sure that Nashville will be the location of coaches convention. Can we get a good to go on this? I want to book it now so we can get it locked in. Found a badass spot. Ray was spot on with place maker. Also, if y'all want to do that pop up pod in Austin area. My bro and I literally own a bar in Kyle, Texas called the Rail House. The sore losers are welcome to use the side rooms or the private silo to do the pod whenever y'all are ready. The silo, it holds up to 1100 people outside and we can fit 200 easily inside. So the 20 people that show up will be easily able to fit. My brother also owns a place in Austin called Come and Take it Live. If y'all rather use that. Also, what up to Buddy Glass and the wife. Me and Catnip live in San Marcos and I work in New Braunfels San Antonio. Let's get together Buddy and Ms. Buddy. That's all. Just wanted to check in. Today is 475 days. Not one drop of four loko or any alcohol. Anything is possible. Bless be the fruit Cat Dick.
Viosa
I think we just found our venue in San Marcos.
Daniel Jeremiah
Hey Cat. Hey, Cat dick. Congratulations on 475 days sober Dominic Duran. Hopefully you're doing well, man. Haven't heard from you. Hope everything's going well with you and your daily journey. That's it. That's all I got. I got to go and watch the masters, man.
Viosa
A lot of the nation, man. It's it's at times they have to get off the bottle.
Daniel Jeremiah
That's good, though. Proud of you guys. I mean. Yeah. Yeah.
Viosa
Once you know you're bigger than it, then you decide, are you better without it? Do you like having a sip on a Saturday afternoon? It's up to you. But guys get that help you need. Congrats to all.
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah. And good luck to you. All your master's bets. Enjoy Augusta this weekend, guys. It's the most. Could it be the most beautiful place on earth?
Viosa
Dodd's been there. I've never been. It's. It's pretty much the old old boys club. If you're not part of the club, you don't get in.
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah. And they let a lady in, I think.
Viosa
Now, did Bones go to it one time? Didn't he go with John Legend?
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah, he did. He did. He did.
Viosa
See, I don't think I can ever get into masters.
Daniel Jeremiah
You can. I enter the lottery every year.
Viosa
You do?
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah. Why would I not.
Viosa
You would get off.
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah, that would be one of.
Viosa
Oh, you wouldn't.
Daniel Jeremiah
That'd be one of those things that. It would just be. Have to be a. Hey, man.
Viosa
No, because you had to work Thursday, you had to work Friday.
Daniel Jeremiah
It would have to be one of those things that. Hey, man. Sorry, but this is a once in a lifetime shot. I got to go.
Viosa
Buddy from work sends out a company wide email. One year. Hey, guys, I got selected. I get to go to the master. So low key brags to us and then says he's not going to be at his cell phone or email for five days. Okay. Awesome. Yeah, right, man.
Daniel Jeremiah
That's weird because we got a low. I don't know if you got the low key brag flex that we got the other day in our email.
Viosa
Where is it about the March Madness?
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah, little weird. It says hello all. First, I'd like to say congrats to all the Florida Gators fans out there. We earned this hard work and dedication. We directly contributed to the Florida Gators winning. Also, sorry for not emailing right away the results of the company bracket as I was in San Antonio to watch my boys cut down the nets. No need for that. No need for the brag about being there and letting us know you were at the event.
Viosa
Must be nice taking that Friday and Monday off.
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah, must be nice to be able to travel to San Antonio, watch your boys cut the nets down and. Sorry, I was slow getting out the results of the. You can just say, here are the results of the bracket. Cool. I suck, but I like the humble brag. Without further ado, congratulations to Gator. Go figure. For winning the first annual I Heart Nashville Bracket challenge. The money will be paid out shortly when I get back to town. Because you know where I was? San Antonio. Celebrating with my fellow Gators.
Viosa
And you already know the bracket he did. It was a chalky one. So he just picked all favorites.
Daniel Jeremiah
All favorite? Well, I mean, it was very. I mean, anybody that picked favorites did really well this year.
Viosa
That's why Bazer did the worst family bracket. My sister won by one pick. She beat me. And then Bazer did terrible. Which tells you picking cheerleaders and mascots.
Daniel Jeremiah
Yeah. And she's near Kentucky. She likes Tennessee. It didn't work out for her. All right, everybody, have a great weekend. We'll see you on Monday. It's that time, man. Live from Augusta.
Viosa
Dude, I'll send that email out when we're on our vacation. Sorry, guys. I'm Turks and Caicos out of pocket. What did I miss? Like, guys, we don't need the location. Send the people their money when they win. Nobody needs to know that. You were right there when they cut down the nets. Guys, I'm going to the Masters. I got an unbelievable offer to go to the Masters. I will be there for five days. I'll be out of pocket. There's no WI fi there. I'll have no access to computers or cell phones. Awesome. So we don't get to go, and we have to do your job for five days. Have fun.
Daniel Jeremiah
That sounds about not right, but, hey, man, cool, Ray.
Viosa
I would have been good to go. Bones would have approved it. Yeah, right. Dude, you're drunk.
Daniel Jeremiah
You're drunk.
Viosa
You'd never gotten off.
Daniel Jeremiah
You don't know that.
Viosa
That's why I don't even. That's why I thought in the moment, man. I'm an idiot. Why don't I do the lottery? Oh, yeah. I can't ever take off for that. Oh, yeah. I can't go to a Monday Night in San Antonio March Madness game. We just. There's stuff we can't do.
Daniel Jeremiah
I don't know, man. I think that's one of those things we can do, man. But maybe I'm. Hey, I could be completely wrong.

Podcast Summary: The Bobby Bones Show – "SORE LOSERS: Why Was Lunchbox Hanging With High School Chicks?"
Release Date: April 12, 2025
Host: Daniel Jeremiah (also known as Lunchbox)
Produced by: Premiere Networks
In this engaging episode of The Bobby Bones Show, titled "SORE LOSERS: Why Was Lunchbox Hanging With High School Chicks?", host Daniel Jeremiah, affectionately known as Lunchbox, delves into a variety of sports-related topics, personal anecdotes, and humorous exchanges. The episode is a vibrant mix of sports analysis, personal stories, and light-hearted banter, making it an entertaining listen for both regular listeners and newcomers.
Flag Football and High School Sports
Early in the episode, Daniel shares his observations from attending a high school flag football game. He comments on the disparity between two teams, highlighting the challenges faced by a team with limited substitutes and smaller players:
“The gray team is still calling timeouts, trying to make a comeback. But I was glad for the gray team. They did get in the end zone with four seconds to go on the clock is zero running gamers at all.”
[23:35]
Daniel reflects on the differences between high school flag football and college intramurals, emphasizing the competitive nature and varying skill levels.
Intramural Football Experiences
Both Daniel and co-host Viosa recount their experiences playing intramural football in college. They humorously discuss their roles on the team, the lack of coordination, and memorable plays that didn’t quite go as planned:
“I had to work out before our intramural football game and then I'd play intramural so I'd be all ripped and everything. I thought I was so awesome.”
[28:08]
Daniel shares a story about celebrating a touchdown that didn’t count due to a taunting penalty, causing both excitement and frustration:
“I dove into the end zone and it was freaking taunting and it didn't count. I landed on my right shoulder. Hurt like hell.”
[26:37]
The Relevance of Music Videos
A significant portion of the discussion shifts to the modern music industry's promotional strategies. Daniel and Viosa critique the necessity and effectiveness of high-budget music videos in the age of streaming platforms:
“Why are these artists spending $20,000 on a music video? It makes no sense. There's no way it's only 20,000.”
[07:02]
They debate the shift in focus from traditional music videos to online platforms like YouTube, questioning whether these productions truly enhance an artist’s reach or simply serve as unnecessary expenses.
Promotional Merchandise
The conversation also touches on the often peculiar promotional items sent by record labels to radio stations, such as miniature vinyl records and branded coolers:
“They sent a cooler and said chilling it. And we put a bunch of beer in it. That cooler has a use, but still, how much did they spend on coolers? That is so much money.”
[08:08]
Both hosts agree that while some promotional items are functional, many are redundant and fail to make a meaningful impact on promoting the music.
Streaming Issues with ESPN Plus
Daniel expresses his frustrations with streaming services, particularly ESPN Plus, highlighting its unreliable performance during crucial moments like sports games:
“I try to watch ESPN plus and it freezes every 10 seconds. It is so horrible.”
[52:30]
Viosa empathizes with the technical difficulties, sharing her own experiences with internet connectivity and streaming quality, ultimately concluding that technology often seems to be more of a hindrance than a help.
General Tech Challenges
The hosts discuss various technological annoyances, from unreliable internet connections to the challenges of streaming live sports events. They empathize with listeners who face similar issues, portraying technology as both essential and frustratingly unpredictable.
Inappropriate Relationships Between Teachers and Students
A more serious portion of the episode addresses the troubling topic of inappropriate relationships between teachers and underage students. Daniel and Viosa explore hypothetical scenarios, sharing anecdotes and expressing bewilderment over how such situations could arise:
“How does she get to the point where she is hitting on a 15 year old because she's an attractive teacher? I've never been a student that had an attractive teacher.”
[43:21]
They debate the psychological and social factors that might contribute to such misconduct, emphasizing the importance of professional boundaries and the profound impact these relationships can have on young individuals.
Listener Voicemails and Personal Milestones
Throughout the episode, Daniel and Viosa engage with listener voicemails, sharing personal stories and milestones. They highlight moments of success, struggles with sobriety, and humorous incidents from their past:
“When I was a senior in high school, my boyfriend and his dad bought a porter potty company. Sometimes I needed to be picked up and so my boyfriend would pick me up in the company truck with five porter potties on the back. Luckily I wasn't embarrassed, but other students always made fun of me.”
[65:04]
These personal narratives add depth to the conversation, allowing listeners to connect with the hosts on a more intimate level.
Discussion of Popular Culture
Daniel and Viosa also touch on various aspects of popular culture, discussing shows like "White Lotus" and "Paul American", and sharing their opinions on what makes a TV show engaging or lacking:
“I watched one episode, it was fine. But Paul, American is just showing how rich they are and they are given some real stuff.”
[55:43]
They critique the content and production choices of modern television, offering their perspectives on what resonates with audiences.
In this lively and multifaceted episode, Daniel Jeremiah (Lunchbox) and Viosa navigate through a tapestry of topics ranging from high school sports and the music industry's promotional tactics to technological frustrations and controversial teacher-student relationships. Their blend of humor, personal anecdotes, and critical insights makes for a compelling and relatable listening experience.
