Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. March Madness & Bracketology

• Celebrity Bracket Challenge: Listeners invited to join via danpatrick.com; “one bracket only” rule stressed for legitimacy.

  “This is a one bracket opportunity to be in our celebrity bracket challenge. One bracket. That’s it.” — Dan [09:11]

• Rise of the 11 Seeds: Historic pattern of 11-seeds making deep NCAA runs, with six having made the Final Four since 1986 (LSU, George Mason, Loyola-Chicago, VCU, UCLA, NC State).

  “It’s not a coincidence; it’s actually a trend…they’re not your typical underdogs. Normally these are battle tested teams playing in big conferences…” — Dan [03:30]

• Discussion on Bracket Analysis Clichés: The tendency for analysts to repeat the same generic talking points (“senior guard play”, “rim protector”, etc.).

  “You could be an analyst by just throwing out these generic lines. …check, check, check, check.” — Dan [09:41]

• First Four Matchups: Highlighted games include UMBC vs. Howard and Texas vs. NC State. Debate on whether the tournament “really starts” with these play-in games.

  “I just don’t like the play-in game. …I just don’t like the designation of that.” — Dan [13:00]

2. World Baseball Classic Hype

• Championship Preview: USA faces Venezuela in what Dan calls a “bad blood” matchup. The team’s build-up and electric semi-final highlighted.

  “WBC means Team USA versus Venezuela. Probably some bad blood there. Just saying. But it’s been fun. I’ve enjoyed it.” — Dan [13:31]

• Italy’s WBC Run: Playful banter about Team Italy, Mike Piazza’s “Mamma Mia” responses, and the transatlantic identity of certain players.

  “He said Mamma Mia about 15 times in that interview…” — Seaton [14:07]

3. NFL News: Justin Fields’ New Start

• Justin Fields to Chiefs: Late-breaking news of Chiefs picking up Fields, sparking prediction this may be his last NFL chance.

  “It signals to me that maybe Patrick [Mahomes] is not going to be ready to go, at least to start this season…this might be the last call for Justin Fields.” — Dan [07:09]

• Listener Calls on Fields: Chicago fan passionately advocates for Fields’ potential under Chiefs and Andy Reid.

  “I'm telling you what, he's going to be a superstar someday. He goes to the Chiefs…he gets to sit behind Patrick Mahomes under Andy Reid, who resurrected Michael Vick's career…I'm telling you what, this kid’s going to be a superstar.” — Daryl, caller [30:20]

• Dan’s Perspective on Young QBs: Emphasis on the necessity of continuity (line, coaches, system) for developing quarterbacks.

  “You have to have continuity. You got to have an offensive line…an offensive coordinator. You're not changing coaches every year.” — Dan [30:40]

4. St. Patrick’s Day Vibes & Food

• Wardrobe Check: Crew shares what green attire they’re wearing. Todd brags about his green wristbands and color-coordination at the gym, prompting playful ribbing.
• Irish Cuisine Discussion: Dylan (show’s chef) prepares an Irish menu—bangers and colcannon, Guinness soda bread, Irish cheeses, with debate on the origins of shepherd’s pie.

  “Is shepherd’s pie Irish or is it English or Scottish?” — Dan [16:12]

• St. Patrick’s Day Parade Timing: Crew laments early parades and muses on the small percentage of Americans with Irish ancestry.

  “Everywhere has a St. Patrick’s Day parade…It’s really not a huge percentage.” — Seaton [18:01]

5. Music, Hip Hop & Memorabilia

• House of Pain Is From LA: Revelation that the iconic “Jump Around” group is California, not Boston-born.

  “For the longest time, I thought House of Pain was from Boston. They're from California.” — Jeff [21:23]

• Kneecap – Irish Hip Hop: Shout-out to up-and-coming Irish rap group.

  “Kneecap…Irish hip hop trio from Belfast, Northern Ireland…they're a big deal, though.” — Seaton [22:10]

• Jim Irsay’s Auction: Deep dive into the $93 million memorabilia auction—David Gilmour’s Pink Floyd guitar ($14.5M), Jack Kerouac’s “On the Road” manuscript ($12M), Cobain guitars, Stallone’s ‘Rocky’ notebook, and more.

  “David Gilmour’s famous Stratocaster…for $14.55M…That’s the kind of piece Jim Irsay would have bought.” — Dan [33:39]

• What Memorabilia Would You Buy? Cohosts debate their picks; Seaton passionate about Kurt Cobain items.

6. Listener Interactions & Shenanigans

• Heritage, Food, and St. Paddy’s Names: Quick calls from listeners pitching in St. Patrick’s Day “names” (AJ Green, Ryan Fitzpatrick), and musings on ethnic pronunciations and ancestry tests.

  “Most people probably wouldn’t admit that they’re 1% Irish unless it’s just this day.” — Dan [25:28]

• One Dining Moment Teaser: Todd’s comedic musical parody “One Dining Moment” (riff on “One Shining Moment”) gets hyped, with behind-the-scenes tales.
• Birthday & Best Holiday Poll: Listener celebrates turning 40 on St. Paddy’s Day, sparking debate on best (and worst) holidays for birthdays.

  “What’s the best holiday to be born on besides April 20th? I think it’s St. Patrick’s Day.” — Corey, caller [43:10]

7. Play of the Day: WBC Tension

• Venezuela’s Comeback vs. USA: Highlight call of Venezuela’s win sets the mood for tonight’s final.

[Dan Patrick Show Intro]

You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports Radio.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, we did it. We made it to a Tuesday. It's hour one. The gang's here. Ready to go, Ready to be filling out our brackets. You can be involved in the DP Show Celebrity Bracket Challenge.

The official trading cards of the program. Good morning. If you're watching, you can watch on NBC Sports Network or also Peacock download the app if you haven't done so we get ready for the first four. We'll talk about that. Carlos Boozer, his two sons are at Duke. He will join us coming up. And of course he gets to retell the well, the story when he rented his house to Prince and then came back to his house after Prince had rented it and realized Prince Princed it up, painted it purple and we'll talk to Carlos. You know, every year, once a year it feels like that story resurfaces and this might be the time that it resurfaces and it goes viral and everybody eats that story up. The Carlos Boozer renting out his house in LA to Prince. And then when Prince moved out he came back and he went, wait a minute, it's purple. The entire the entire building inside purple. Reggie Miller will join us a little later on. John Smoltz. He'll be on the call tonight. It'll be Venezuela facing USA the World Baseball Classic Final 8773 DP show email address dpdanpatrick.com Twitter handle At DP show you got the first four, but when you're filling out your bracket, it used to be the 12 5. It felt like every year there was a 12 over a 5. Now it's the 11 seeds. You know, the 16 seeds are long shots but the 11 seed, it feels like they inflict some damage. Just about every tournament, six different 11 seeds have crashed the final four. LSU, George Mason, Loyola, Chicago, VCU, UCLA and then most recently North Carolina State. So it's not a coincidence, it's actually a trend. And they're not your typical underdogs. Normally these are battle tested teams playing in big conferences. They get overlooked for one reason or another, but they have enough talent to string together three or four wins. That's the beauty of the tournament. Only takes one game to maybe spark a run. And if you're looking for the madness to begin, history tells us the 11 seeds are pretty good place to start. And so so looking back on the six number 11 seeds to reach the Final Four as I mentioned. And if you look back since 2014, the 11 seeds have been successful going 23 and 21 against the number six seeds. Stat of the day is always brought to you by Panini American 8773 DP Show Operator Tyler sitting by who take your phone calls Here it is St Patrick's Day and sporting the green. I think everybody's got a different shade of green on today, although Seaton's got maroon on today.

[Seaton]

I had a green hoodie on and then I was brushing my teeth and I dribbled toothpaste all over it and didn't notice really till I had gotten close to the car and I was already kind of late, so I was just like, well, better grab what's convenient. I do have an Ireland soccer jersey on the back of my chair, though. I think that counts for.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay, Paul, you got blue on.

[Paulie]

I completely forgot this morning and just came to work.

[Dan Patrick]

Todd not only has green on a green shirt, he's got green wristbands.

[Todd]

I do. I have green wristbands. It doesn't match perfectly with the lighter green shirt, but it's more of a forest green wristbands because I went to a sporting goods store a couple of months ago and I like the feel of like tight wristbands on the occasion that I go to the gym. I like how it, you know, like a bowler keeps his wrist tight. I like the feeling of the tightness of the wrist, the wristbands. Not that I'm sweating or anything. It's not really used as a sweatband, just the comfort of it.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay. And you bought different colors?

[Todd]

I bought light blue, navy blue, black, gray, red. I have about six or seven different pairs of these wristbands of different colors to match my tank tops and. Or my sweatpants when I go to the gym. Like, like most 56 year olds do, wearing tank tops and wristbands.

[Dan Patrick]

So you're color coordinated when you go in to kind of ladies appreciate that.

[Todd]

So I see what you did. Your sweatpants match your wristbands.

[Dan Patrick]

How cute. How is it going with the ladies? Okay. All right.

[Todd]

I say hi. They don't really say hi back there. Run away.

[Dan Patrick]

Marvin's got his Notre Dame sweatshirt on.

[Jeff]

That's right. Representing the old country.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Of course, nobody represents the old country quite like you do. UMBC versus Howard and Texas versus NC State. Coming up tonight with your first four. And Dayton, Ohio, a couple other headlines. Yesterday at the end of the show, the Chiefs picked up Justin Fields, which is kind of an interesting move because it signals to me that maybe Patrick is not going to be ready to go, at least to start this season. Or maybe you ease him in after a couple of games. But you bring in Justin Fields and this might be the last call for Justin Fields to Be a quarterback in the NFL, but I, of course, I'm in the minority. I still think there's hope for Justin Fields. The Alabama Crimson Tide, they lost Aiden Holloway to a drug arrest. I guess he was caught with over a pound of pot, which would probably mean that he was going to distribute, Sell and distribute. But he is averaging just under 17 points a game. Alabama not expected to have him in their game. They open up with Hofstra. And I think, you know, if you look, this is kind of surprising here, but these teams that are the top four seeds, I don't think anybody is less than a double digit favorite in their first games. I don't know if that's ever happened before. But you got, you know, mostly chalk here and filling out your brackets, FYI. All right, Seaton poll question today.

[Seaton]

Here's one from Paul. Would you rather call a 16 over a one or win the entire bracket?

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, win the entire bracket, man.

[Seaton]

Calling a 16 over one is pretty great, though. Okay, but I guess, you know, the part of the problem with the tournament is that nobody's going to believe you anyway or they're going to be like, wow, yeah, but you were just doing that to be whatever.

[Dan Patrick]

Or there'll be. Well, how many brackets did you fill out? Yeah, this is a one bracket opportunity to be in our celebrity bracket challenge. One bracket. That's it. But you call it. Okay. Gives you bragging rights. But to win the tournament, I would probably. Because that means you called a lot of other games. You didn't get 16 over a one, but you got a whole lot more correct than everybody else.

[Seaton]

Yeah. As a matter of fact, you called more than everyone.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, yeah.

[Seaton]

I've never won a bracket tournament.

[Dan Patrick]

I always do. Terrible.

[Seaton]

I've never won one.

[Dan Patrick]

I like it's. I overthink it.

[Seaton]

Because you know the game, too.

[Dan Patrick]

I do, I do. I know it too well. But it feels like the analysis that you hear, it sounds like it's the same. But there are analysts who are saying what is actually true when they say, well, you know, they got great senior guard play. You know, they got to cut down on their turnover. Like all these things that could be true for that particular team, but it feels like you could be an analyst by just throwing out these generic lines. You know, they, they got the, they got the rim protector and the senior guard play. And look, they knocked down their free throws and their coach has been here before. You know, it's all of those, check, check, check, check. Yes, Todd, it does.

[Todd]

The true experts and bracketologists a disservice when there's so many people out there just saying you got to watch the wolf pack in transition. They're going to make things difficult for Texas.

[Dan Patrick]

So for the first time ever, every top four seed is a double digit favorite and the round is 64. Now Alabama has the smallest spread, that's 11 and a half and that's against Hofster. I don't know if this is updated with Aiden Holloway not playing. And here's their second leading score. And there's a lot of talent, a lot of talent. And you know, Jay Billis talked about this might be the most talented freshman class that we've ever had in the history of college basketball. AJ Debanza with byu. Cam Boozer, Darren Peterson at Kansas, Caleb Wilson, who is a really talented player at North Carolina, but he won't play against vcu. Darius Acuff at Arkansas, Kingston Fleming at Houston, Mike Brown, Mikel Brown at Louisville, Braden Buries at Arizona, LeBaron Phylon Jr. III at Alabama. So there's a, there's a lot of, a lot of talent here. First round and a lottery picks, especially with AJ DeBancer and that I don't think BYU is a, you know, a really good team. They're an old team. I do know that. I think they got a couple of 26 year olds. But I think if you take Debanza out of the lineup there, they're the oldest team in the tournament probably by far. And you know, you get players who go on their Mormon mission for two years and come back and then, you know, they're married with a couple of kids and you know, 26 years of age. But Debance is going to be a one and done. But we'll talk to Carlos Boozer about his two sons at Duke and John Smoltz will join us. Reggie will join us as well. What other poll questions are we thinking about? Seaton for the first hour of the program?

[Seaton]

The NCAA tournament starts tonight or Thursday Classic.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, we don't fill out our bracket.

[Seaton]

You can still turn your bracket in after tonight.

[Dan Patrick]

Yes.

[Seaton]

So that, I mean that really tells you everything.

[Dan Patrick]

Yes.

[Seaton]

No offense.

[Dan Patrick]

Wednesday. Well, I think Thursday at noon is the deadline for the celebrity bracket challenge. I would say when you turn in your bracket is when the tournament starts. Yes.

[Todd]

Todd, do you like to pick the first four games for the chance? Chance among chances that you would have a perfect or semi perfect bracket. Don't you want to be able to be on record that you picked all the.

[Seaton]

No.

[Todd]

You don't care about those Games.

[Dan Patrick]

No, I'll watch.

[Todd]

You won't even take a second to circle four picks for the first.

[Dan Patrick]

No, no, I'm not going to overthink it. I got to worry about the actual bracket. I just don't like the play in game. I just don't like the designation of that.

[Seaton]

The opening round.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Oh, that sounds so much better.

[Seaton]

It's the opening round.

[Dan Patrick]

It's a play in game. It's a play in game. Yes. Yes.

[Seaton]

Here's one from to Double D. Which are you more excited to watch tonight? The first four NCAA tournament games? Contro World Baseball Classic Championship game or. Actually, neither.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, I'm going to go. WBC means Team USA versus Venezuela. Probably some bad blood there. Just saying. But it's been fun. I've enjoyed it. I mean, Italy, Italy had it last night and all of a sudden, bang, bang, bang, and mama mia, mamma mia, we had it. I don't know if that's how I think they did.

[Seaton]

I think there was more than one person that said, I'm mama mia.

[Paulie]

Actual sound.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. But 24 players are from the United States.

[Seaton]

I don't know.

[Dan Patrick]

Maybe he's going to mama me.

[Seaton]

You know, we had Mike Piazza on from Italy.

[Dan Patrick]

I know that time.

[Seaton]

And you know, he said Mamma Mia about 15 times in that interview. Go back and listen to it. He'd be like, oh, yeah, so I bought this team and then we lost. I'm like, mama mia, we're not winning.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, but that's when Madonna was living in England and all of a sudden ended up with an English.

[Seaton]

This conflict must end.

[Dan Patrick]

Wait a minute. That's Madonna. What? What? Yes.

[Paulie]

Paul, do you think there'll be a ton of Italy baseball fans waiting for the three Italian baseball players when they come back to sport?

[Dan Patrick]

Probably not.

[Seaton]

Holding signs.

[Dan Patrick]

Probably not. There's three of them. Probably not. But Venezuela against Team usa. John Smoltz will join us. Didn't Piazza, didn't he have an Italian soccer team and like the team, the town turned on him and.

[Todd]

Yeah.

[Dan Patrick]

Did he have to leave Italy?

[Seaton]

He might have. I don't know. But he, from what I remember, he kind of ran that team right into the ground.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, that was bad.

[Seaton]

Not ideal.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Yes, that would be. Mama mia, Mamma mia. Mamma mia. All right, any other poll questions for the first hour of the program?

[Seaton]

Yep, yep. Let's see. We got a few more here from Todd.

[Dan Patrick]

Is anybody more interested in the opening round or the first four than the wb?

[Todd]

Oh, I think I'm going to be watching more I'm going to take a peek at both, but I think I'll watch more of the college basketball than the baseball.

[Dan Patrick]

But you got to pick.

[Todd]

Then I'm gonna pick the first four games.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Todd]

Even though I know it's all on the line with the championship game. But I don't know. I think I'm gonna be more interested in the basketball.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay, but you have to pick. Like, you can't.

[Todd]

I can't do that. Wasn't a choice. You could peek in both, and then everyone would say, well, I'll peek at

[Dan Patrick]

both, and you're anti American.

[Todd]

I guess I may be at the American.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Todd]

I'm hoping the baseball game will be a blowout and Team USA will be up 92 early, and then I won't have to worry about missing anything exciting, and then I could just watch comfortably the college basketball.

[Dan Patrick]

By the way, we got food today.

[Jeff]

What?

[Dan Patrick]

Yes. Yeah, I saw. Is it Irish themed? Yeah.

[Seaton]

Hey. All right.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Nothing like Irish food.

[Seaton]

Hey, you know what? It's getting better, okay? I love Irish food.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Is shepherd's pie Irish or is it English or Scottish?

[Seaton]

Cottage pie versus Shepherd's piece.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, Paulie, Shepherd's pie is pretty good, man.

[Paulie]

I have mixed origins here. Hold, please.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, my gosh. Okay, hold on here. You know what? Let me take a break.

[Seaton]

It's another thing the English stole from us. Damn it.

[Dan Patrick]

When we come back, I'll tell you what the menu is today. I saw Dylan out there and go, are you prepping for Friday? And he goes, no, today. And I go, I mean, it's actually today. So I said, that's right. It's St. Patrick's Day. Happy St. Patrick's Day. Every. You know, the number of people say, hey, you got something planned for Tuesday? I go, no.

[Seaton]

What do you mean?

[Dan Patrick]

I go. I don't celebrate St. Patty's Day.

[Seaton]

My town had the St. Patrick's Day

[Dan Patrick]

parade two weeks ago. Yeah.

[Seaton]

What the hell?

[Dan Patrick]

This hometown here in Milford, Connecticut, they had it on Saturday. As I found out. The hard way is I. I'm kind of stuck behind a parade. That's all the. Yeah. Where are they going? Oh, St. Patty's Day. Yeah, but, you know. Happy St. Patrick's Day.

[Todd]

Yes, but isn't a parade more fun on the weekend, even if you're cheating it by a couple of days? People have school, work. They got other things to do. Unless you're gonna blow off the day, you know, you want to, you know, on a Saturday or Sunday, be able to go to the parade if that's your thing. And you like parades.

[Dan Patrick]

Did you go to the parade?

[Todd]

I did not.

[Seaton]

Okay.

[Todd]

I think I'm doing more than enough with my full green outfit here.

[Dan Patrick]

And your wristband.

[Todd]

And my wristband, yeah.

[Dan Patrick]

Like, I don't drink green beer. I don't do any of that stuff. Like, I'm like, okay, you go get them. Yes.

[Todd]

Tom, what about the Shamrock Shake?

[Dan Patrick]

You know? No, I don't. I don't do that. Yeah.

[Seaton]

You know what's crazy, too, is that Everywhere has a St. Patrick's Day parade, which is awesome. I love that it's only, like, 10 of Americans have Irish, like, ancestry.

[Dan Patrick]

That's it.

[Seaton]

Yeah, there's really. It's really not a huge portion of the population. We're a vocal minority. But, yeah, it's really. It's really not a huge percentage.

[Dan Patrick]

Wait, all of those Irish who came over, you know, back in the early 1900s? Yeah.

[Seaton]

Yeah.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, they didn't treat us very well when we got here.

[Seaton]

They didn't. But there's a. There's. I think there's something like 30 million people claim Irish heritage. Maybe I'm wrong. I might have also made. Completely made that up.

[Dan Patrick]

You might have to stay in your lane. Yeah. Hey. Or is this your lane?

[Seaton]

I feel like it's more my lane than anything.

[Dan Patrick]

Yes.

[Seaton]

But I. Then again, I'm usually wrong about my lanes as well, so it's okay.

[Dan Patrick]

All right. We come back, we get the phone calls here. What's on the menu? St. Patty's Day. Stay in your lane. Seaton. We're back after this in the Dan Patrick Show.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Jeff]

It's set at a St. Patrick's Day parade. And for the longest time, I thought house of pain was from Boston. They're from California.

[Paulie]

Okay.

[Dan Patrick]

No, No, I. I saw a video, but I didn't see the documentary on this Irish rap group.

[Seaton]

It's awesome.

[Dan Patrick]

Kneecap.

[Seaton]

So good. It's so good. They're great.

[Paulie]

It's great. Irish hip hop trio from Belfast, Northern Ireland.

[Dan Patrick]

They have two songs on Spotify that have like 40 million views and then. Or listens downloads and then the other songs have like, you know, 18,000.

[Seaton]

Yeah. Kneecap get more attention for who they are than what their songs are necessary, you know, or the lyrical content of their songs gets a lot of attention, but people aren't listening to it as much. They're a big deal, though.

[Dan Patrick]

Make sure you sign up. You can be in the celebrity bracket challenge. Really easy. Doesn't cost you anything. Just go to danpatrick.com or on our social media platforms, St. Patty's Day and Dylan is out there cooking. He's got bangers and colcannon. Is that cabbage? I think yes.

[Paulie]

Sausage and cabbage.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay. Guinness soda bread and some Irish cheeses. Who. Who has it better than we do?

[Jeff]

Nobody.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, I'm not going to do that. You're not going to do the accent? No. Okay.

[Jeff]

I wouldn't play you like that.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, I will. You know what?

[Seaton]

You can't make that joke.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, I know. I'm gonna let you do it if you want to.

[Jeff]

No, I'm.

[Todd]

All right.

[Dan Patrick]

All right, fair enough. Somebody's not having fun.

[Jeff]

Well, I'm having. Oh, I'm fun haver. Oh, I'm a fun haver.

[Seaton]

Fun haver.

[Jeff]

I'm a fun haver.

[Seaton]

Maybe a new T shirt. Fun haver. This guy has fun.

[Dan Patrick]

I'm fun ever. I mentioned shepherd's pie. I didn't know if it was Irish, Scottish, or English.

[Paulie]

Shepherd's pie, we did a deep dive here. It's a dish from the British Isles, Dan. Both Irish and English ties. Yeah. I got more mashed potato with minced meat. Here's the curveball. Lamb and mutton used in shepherd's pie in Ireland. Beef in cottage pie in England. So shepherd's pie, you may hear uttered more in.

[Dan Patrick]

Get it?

[Paulie]

Uttered more in Ireland. Cottage pie more in the uk. England, I should say.

[Dan Patrick]

But there's a pot pie as well.

[Paulie]

Yes.

[Dan Patrick]

Is that the American version of a shepherd's pie?

[Paulie]

Check.

[Dan Patrick]

Pot pie is pretty good.

[Seaton]

It is pretty good.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Pretty good.

[Seaton]

Pie is not a. Not a bad delivery system for food. The pie. Yeah, it's not bad.

[Paulie]

Pot pie. A pie with chicken, beef, or turkey and vegetables in a creamy sauce topped with a flaky pastry. Speaking of which, country of origin, Pennsylvania Dutch country is. Is a big hotbed of pot pie.

[Todd]

Yeah.

[Paulie]

Pot pie.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Seaton]

Pot pie ism.

[Dan Patrick]

Mateo in New Mexico. Hey, Mateo. Hey, Dan.

[Mateo]

Can you hear me?

[Dan Patrick]

Yep.

[Caller]

Hey.

[Mateo]

And so Mateo in Albuquerque, New Mexico, better known as Albuquerque the 505. Or the 500 filthy. I just want to give props to Marvin, because I was on hold to talk about House of Pain when he did what he did. I was like, yep, he knows his music. But, yeah, they grew up in la. And so I did find out, though. I will add this quick comment. When I did a 23andMe with my wife, I found out I was 1% Irish, so I can actually say I'm Irish.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Congratulations.

[Seaton]

Welcome, Mateo. Yeah, welcome.

[Dan Patrick]

See, most people probably wouldn't admit that they're 1% Irish unless it's just this day. But other than that, like, you know, my. My wife's side of the family there's obviously heavily Italian, but when it comes, they don't say mama mia. They do not. They say scanjeel and catamaran. Yeah, yeah. Mozarta.

[Jeff]

Worse.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, it drives me crazy.

[Jeff]

Oh, we're at a Subway. Just say mozzarella.

[Paulie]

The sandwich shop.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Jeff]

What are you doing? What are you doing? My mother in law is good for the use. You know, use me to.

[Seaton]

I'm a big used guy actually, too. You guys go into this thing?

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, yeah. I remember when I was saying mozzarella, and then I could see my wife's two brothers looking at her like, what is. He doesn't even know how to say Mozart. I go. And then I finally. Then I tried doing that, and then they looked at me like, no, you're not allowed to do it. So

[Seaton]

the parmigiano, it's parmesan.

[Dan Patrick]

Can I have maybe some of that veal Parmagayani? David in Ohio. Good morning, David. What's on your mind today? Hey, Dan.

[Caller]

Happy St. Patrick's Day. Got a few St. Patrick's Day names

[Dan Patrick]

for you real quick.

[Caller]

I got Patrick Peterson. I got Andrew luck, Ryan Fitzpatrick, A.J. green. And the last one, my favorite, Adrian Patterson. Thank you.

[Dan Patrick]

All right. Thank you, David. By the way, you ask for it, and we will give it to you at the top of the hour. Fritzi's one dining moment that he took a spin on, one shining moment, made it one dining moment as we get ready to unofficially start the NCAA tournament. That'll be at the top of the hour. And I will say this in case you're wondering when you hear this, that was one take. Todd thought he nailed it. He did it one take. And the backroom guys who recorded it, they were like, do you want to do it again? Like, they thought he needed to do it again. And he's like, no, no, I think I nailed it.

[Todd]

Asked me several times. Absolutely sure this one you want to go with? Like, this was perfect. Let's roll it.

[Dan Patrick]

They came out and asked Paulie and they said, hey, he probably needs to do it again, but he thinks he nailed it. And then Paulie goes, that's okay.

[Jeff]

Good to go.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Yes, Marv.

[Jeff]

One take. Fritzi. Yes. Because we were in there recording one dining moment, and afterwards, all of us, all the brgs. Oh, man. Fritzi. Hey, you want to do that one more time? No, no, no, I'm good.

[Dan Patrick]

You sure?

[Jeff]

I mean, it was legit. We walked out. Not forget it was Maybe Mario, that ass Paulie. Like, I think he needs to do it again.

[Dan Patrick]

And Jeff, just a little taste of it. Just. Just a. Just a sample of one dining moment. Just to let people know. In a half hour, they get the entire song.

[Caller]

The foodie shirt.

[Todd]

The heck is that?

[Paulie]

That's a teaser.

[Todd]

They were very polite back there. They said, how about one more for safekeeping? I didn't realize it was because it was bad. One more for safekeeping. Because the first one gets lost somewhere.

[Seaton]

I'm just saying in that clip, the food gets all the attention, but the gold is really.

[Jason McIntyre]

Sir.

[Seaton]

It's just so good. The little vibrato, it's so good.

[Dan Patrick]

All right, that'll be at the top of the hour. One dining moment.

[Todd]

And American Idol still has not called. After we played that a few times.

[Dan Patrick]

Daryl in Chicago. Hi, Daryl. What's on your mind today? Hey, Dan. How you doing? Good, sir.

[Caller]

Happy St. Dan Patrick's Day.

[Dan Patrick]

Right?

[Caller]

First time, long time. Have you been part of my life for 20 years. I work from home. I feel like I'm sitting in the same room with you guys, right?

So.

And you make me laugh every day. I just wanted to share a common opinion on Justin Fields, right? I live here in Chicago. I've watched this kid grow up under a microscope, right? He was here for three years under. Behind three atrocious offensive lines, two poor coordinators who should have been coaching high school, right? He goes to Pittsburgh, he goes 4 and 2. They sit him for Russell Wilson, which was ridiculous, right? And then he ends up with the Jets. What a dumpster fire that that organization is. I've watched this kid play. He's got legs, he's got an arm, he's got skills. I remember Michael Vick, right? I see glimpses, glimpses of Michael Fick and Justin Fields. And I'm telling you what, he's going to be a superstar someday. He goes to the Chiefs, he gets to sit behind, sit next to Patrick Mahomes under Andy Reid, who. Who resurrected Michael Vick's career right when he came out of prison, it was Andy Reid. I'm telling you what, this kid's gonna be a superstar, Dan. And just like you, I'm gonna be up and be able to say, I told you so.

[Dan Patrick]

Thank you, Darryl. I think Darrell sounded like he was on the treadmill breathing heavy there. They fired up about Justin Fields. Now I. I look, I like Justin Fields. I. You know, I bring this up when it comes to young quarterbacks. You have to have continuity. You got to have an offensive Line, you have to have a, an offensive coordinator. You're not changing coaches every year. And Justin Fields, you know, was subjected to that. And I thought he played okay with Pittsburgh. He had some moments with the jets, but didn't feel like ownership was going to put up with him much longer. You know, I'm looking at Milk Hyper's mock draft. He's got the Jets, I think, with the 16th pick taking Ty Simpson, the Alabama quarterback, that feels like if you're Aaron Glenn and you're trying to hold on to your job, it's like, you don't want to get rid of me. I just drafted our future quarterback here, like, give you a little insurance there. I like Tyke, I like Ty Simpson. I don't think he's a top 16 pick. But in this year's draft, see, that's where I have to look at this and go, don't try to solve it this year. Get the right guy for your team. And this feels like it's a reach. And if you know you're going to bring him in, I, I, I'm not going to play him. You just brought in Geno Smith. And if that's the case, is Aaron Glenn even going to be there? Like, is there going to be continuity? This is where you get that quarterback who's, well, he'll be good with his next team. Everybody talks about next year's draft, so why would you try? Unless you go, he's better than any of the quarterbacks in next year's draft because chances are you're probably going to have a pretty high draft pick. And I don't need to take a quarterback now. I have Geno Smith. I'm okay with that. We're not winning anything anytime soon. Let's see Andrew in Washington. Welcome back, Andrew.

[Caller]

Oh, good morning, dan Dennett. Happy St. Patrick's Day. Thanks for having me on. I'm sorry about that. I have a stat of the day and then a comment and a couple of questions, but stat of the day is Duke is the first ACC team to ever win the men's basketball championship, the ACC football championship, and the women's basketball championship in the same academic year. So that's the stat of the day. Dan, I didn't know if you kind of dropped in and watched a little bit of it, but Jim Ursay's memorabilia collection went on auction this past week. It brought in over $93 million set, 23 world records. One of it was David Gilmore's Pink Floyd, Famous Strata Stratocaster. I think it's called guitar for $14.55 million. I was wondering if you took a look at that auction and then maybe a question for the room. What piece of memorabilia, if there was one, would each of you like to have?

[Dan Patrick]

I. I didn't look at the auction. I did see that, that. That David Gilmore's famous guitar went for over $14 million. See that? That's the kind of piece that Jim Ursay would have bought. So I don't know who else is. I know Paul Allen, the late owner, you know, billionaire. He collected a lot of guitars, I believe. I think he was into music as well. But, yeah, 14.5 million. What was the. So David Gilmore on Pink Floyd. Seaton with that guitar.

[Seaton]

Yeah. I'm not. I'm not sure which guitar it is that he had, but David Gilmore played Stratocasters, for sure.

[Dan Patrick]

But it was a black Stratocaster. Yep. And I think it was played on Pink Floyd. Yeah. Paulie.

[Paulie]

He sold a lot of other stuff, too, with the Ursay sale. Jack Kerouac, the writer. The original transcript of the book on the road sold for $12 million. And the transcript was sheets of paper taped together. Hundreds of sheets of paper. And the guy wrote for days in a row on a typewriter and just kept feeding it. And so it's. It's very famous in literary history.

[Seaton]

That's incredible.

[Dan Patrick]

I wonder. And. And Jack Kerouac, you know, just like J.D. salinger. Like, if you said to J.D. salinger he was still alive, if you could go back and not write that, you know, catch her in the Rye. If you could go back and not write that, would he do that? Because it felt like it made him so famous and it drove him crazy. And he became such a recluse that he Never enjoyed being J.D. salinger with catcher in the Rye. And I remember people would stake out the post office in New Hampshire just to get a glimpse of J.D. salinger. Yeah. Paulie.

[Paulie]

A couple more things in the Irsay collection. Supposedly the last guitar Kurt Cobain ever used on stage. A 69 fender. Sylvester Stallone's notebook for Rocky 1. The notes he kept in the year leading up to making the movie Rocky 1 sold for $508,000.

[Dan Patrick]

What's amazing is they wanted to take his script, but they didn't want him to star in it. He said, no, you take the script, you got me. And I mean, made him a billionaire. Ye.

[Seaton]

Man. This is exactly the kind of stuff, though, like, if I won the lottery or whatever, this is how I would spend it all.

[Dan Patrick]

What's the one thing in there in that collection you go. Yep. Money's money. Doesn't matter.

[Seaton]

Correct.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Seaton]

Well, anything Kurt Cobain related, I'm buying 100.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, they sold that. Like, didn't he have a cardigan? Like a cardigan sweater that had holes all over it that he was on mtv?

[Seaton]

I think I buy all those things. The on the Road manuscript, I didn't know that was on there. That's a very important book for me as a kid. You know, as a teenager, I would buy something like that for sure.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Paulie.

[Paulie]

Last year, Cobain's guitar from MTV's Unplugged went for 6 million in a separate sale.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Would you rather have that or the. You know, David Gilmore from Pink Floyd?

[Seaton]

Like, if it was the. The. If it was the guitar that, say, he played the Comfortably Numb solo with or something like that, like, it would have to be a very specific thing, like, he recorded Comfortably Numb with this, then, hell, yeah. I would buy that absolutely.

[Dan Patrick]

Over Kurt Cobain?

[Seaton]

No, not over Kurt Cobain, but that's personal. Like, that's because he. Kurt Cobain. Kurt Cobain meant so much to me that I would just buy. If it was a, you know, Juicy Fruit rapper, I'd be like 7 million.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, I would probably want Kurt Cobain because more people know Kurt Cobain than David Gilmore, even though David Gilmore, one of the great rock and roll guitar players of all time, first of all,

[Seaton]

it's not even his band, so.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, well, that's. That's true. Yeah. He probably did all of those Pink Floyd songs on Dark side of the Moon. I'm guessing Comfortably Numb.

[Seaton]

Probably the coolest guitar solo of all time for me. You know, that's. I listen to that a hundred thousand times, and it gets better every time. So good.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Paulie.

[Paulie]

An acoustic guitar used by Johnny Cash in concerts.

[Dan Patrick]

How much?

[Paulie]

$215,000 is the estimate.

[Seaton]

Would Jim Marseille have been my best friend in the whole world? That kind of feels like.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. I wish I know him. Yeah.

[Seaton]

We had a lot of things in common. Yeah. Me and Jim really kind of vibed,

[Dan Patrick]

I gotta tell you. Yes. How about we take a break here? Happy St. Patrick's Day. Play the day is next.

[Caller]

Hey, guys. 511, 177. Just, just want to see. You guys were talking guitar options from the Ursay Collection there. If you saw the Jerry Garcia Tiger guitar went for 11.5 mil and then within 24 hours, Derek trucks brought it out on stage at the Beacon and shredded Allman Brothers Statesboro Blues on it. Just wanted to comment on the juxtaposition there of these people that see these high ticket items as collector's pieces, and then some people just see them as the tools they were meant to be.

[Dan Patrick]

All right, well, thank you, Fritz. Yeah, Derek Trucks, he can play. He's. He was one of those like 10 years old prodigy. Yes. Seaton.

[Seaton]

Yeah, that dude was kind of a badass.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, he still is.

[Seaton]

Yeah. Oh, I met Fritz that just called in. He was kind of amazed. Like, just the tools, they're meant to be.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, okay. You're right.

[Seaton]

It's just a guitar.

[Dan Patrick]

Who's the old one? Billy Strings. He's a big deal. Yeah.

[Paulie]

Paulie, back to the Ursay collection. A Prince custom yellow cloud guitar.

[Caller]

Dang.

[Paulie]

Used in concert. Went for $635,000 bargain.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, I would want one of the guitars. That was the symbol. When. When Prince went by the symbol, that was always weird. Like, how do you address him? Hey, Symbol. Like I don't know how you get it. How do you call him? Yes, is Mr. Symbol here?

[Seaton]

I mean, you don't have to call him anything because he is.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, if you get his attention, you know, let's say he's, you know, walking down the street and there's a car, it's going to hit him. I just yell at symbol, get him to turn around. Watch out. Any other items in there?

[Paulie]

Steve Jobs acceptance letter to Apple when he went back to work, signed by him when they brought him back. There's some really random stuff on this list.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, we don't have anything in here that it's going to be historical. I don't think we got a lot of this stuff is just stuff I collected. But I don't. I don't know if there's anything like it means something to me, but I don't know if it's going to mean that much to other people. I mean, I have certain jerseys that are. What's the Ricky Williams jersey? What's it. What's it say over there? It's autographed. Does it say, smoke weed every day? Smoke weed every day? So I have my. My Ricky Williams Miami Dolphin. That orange color or whatever that color is.

[Seaton]

It says R. Williams on the back.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, 34. Yeah.

[Seaton]

Pretty good.

[Dan Patrick]

But I don't know what that is. That orange. Would you say that color?

[Seaton]

I would say that's orange.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, I saw that every day. And he does. Let's see. Corey in Kansas City. Hi, Corey. What's on your mind?

[R]

Hey, good morning, Mr. Patrick. Top of the morning. I said.

[Caller]

Shit.

[R]

I should say to you and the fellows.

[Dan Patrick]

Wait a minute, would you. Did you slip in a word there?

[R]

No, I did not, actually. If I did, it was completely unintentional.

[Dan Patrick]

That's my fault. Okay.

[R]

I was trying to say, top of the morning, Mr. Patrick, to you and the fellows. And then.

[Caller]

Marv.

[R]

Seat forever, guys. And today, nothing but positivity. Much love to the port side as well as the BRGs. Sorry, Dan, I've been drinking a little bit. It's my 40th birthday today, so I'm already getting it in, which is actually the reason why I called. Poll question for you. What's the best holiday to be born on Besides April 20th? I think it's St. Patrick's Day.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay, well, happy birthday, Corey. Happy birthday. He's 40, drinking right now. The best holiday to be born on. You could have New Year's, you could have New Year's Eve, you could have Fourth of July. You don't want to be born on Christmas or anywhere near Christmas. 4:20. Yeah.

[Seaton]

See, I used to have an old girlfriend and her birthday was on 4th of July. And it was so annoying because every time 4th of July came around, she said, the whole country celebrates my birthday. And when you get to that point where you're like, man, I think we're gonna break up pretty soon, that's the kind of thing that would drive you crazy. The whole country celebrates my birthday.

[Dan Patrick]

Is that how she sounded?

[Seaton]

That's how she sounds now in my head. Just stop.

[Paulie]

Clearly, over.

[Dan Patrick]

Any other holidays that you would like to or not, like to be born on.

[Paulie]

Yeah, Paulie, if you're born on Thanksgiving, you're not getting your due. That day is all about family and travel. You can't have a party that day.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, it's all about giving thanks, though.

[Seaton]

Yeah.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Paulie]

But you get stopped by Thanksgiving.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Nobody wants to take time out to have you open up gifts or anything.

[Seaton]

Everybody argues about turkey or sides, everything. You're like, okay, just. How about birthday cake?

[Dan Patrick]

Yes, Todd, I don't think I'd want

[Todd]

to be born on Halloween. It seems kind of spooky to be born on Halloween. And then if you want to give out candy and stuff, then feel bad if you go out for dinner and then you're there's no one to give out the candy in your house. Or if you do stay home, then you got to answer the doorbell every five minutes when you're just trying to enjoy your birthday.

[Dan Patrick]

Thank you, Todd.

[Todd]

Halloween's not good.

[Dan Patrick]
