I want to tell you about my new true crime podcast, Crimeless Hillbilly Heist from Smartless Media, Campside Media, and big Money Players. It's a wild tale about a gang of high function nitwits who somehow pulled off America's third largest cash heist. Kind of like Robin Hood, except for the part where he steals from the rich and gives to the poor. I'm not that generous. It's a damn near inspiring true story for anyone out there who's ever shot for the moon, then just totally muffed up the landing. They stole $17 million and had not bought a ticket to help him escape. So we're sitting like, oh God, what do we do? What do we do? That was dumb. People, do not follow my example. Listen to Crimeless Hillbilly Heist on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, it's Ed Helms, host of Snafu, my podcast about history's greatest screw ups.

And as we always do every Monday, best and worst of the weekend. This first hour, brought to you by the great folks at Tire Rack. It was great seeing them on their home home, I guess, a court or their home racetrack. Yeah. For over 40 years, Tire Rack's been helping you find the right tires for how and what and where you drive ship fast and free, backed by free road hazard protection. Tire rack.com the way tire buying should be. All right, so a couple of big games coming up tonight. You have the Buccaneers against the Lions. The Buccaneers are getting six. The Texans are getting three. At the Seahawks. Recapping some of the games, the Broncos game was crazy. I've been watching NFL football for over 60 years and that's one of those where this question will probably be asked on pardon the Interruption later today. Was that a collapse or was that a comeback? It was a combination. It's hard to have a comeback unless you have a little bit of assistance. And boy, did the Giants help out the Broncos. But a wild finish there and the Broncos pick up the win historical comeback. The Colts over the Bolts and the Colts are real, the Dolphins. I said that this was the most must win game of the weekend in the NFL in my opinion, because I thought Mike McDaniel needed to win this. He needed to win it and maybe to keep his job. I don't know if they're going to hold on to him. I don't know if he makes it through the day. But he did hint about making some changes. But this is, this is about a team. And Bill Cower said this post game, he said they look disinterested. Boy, you don't want to hear that. You don't want to hear that your team quit or they're disinterested. And here's, you know, hall of Fame coach saying that. And that says a lot about the coach in Miami and about that quarterback. He threw for 100 yards. He had three interceptions. I mean, That's. That's inexcusable. Here is the Dolphins head coach, Mike McDaniel. I find it very offensive to all parties involved. If I'm thinking about having the job, I need to be doing my job, and that's fair. But it's also our job to ask about this because we're seeing, you know, coaches being fired. Whether it's college or the NFL, you're not making it through half the season anymore. People want results, owners want results, fans want results, and you're not even close to being competitive. That's the problem I have. There are certain teams where you go, okay, I can look at the Giants and go, they played well. They played well enough to win that game. There is at least hope there. Now, are there some questionable calls? Yes. But give credit to Denver. I mean, they hung in there. They made plays when they needed to. The Giants inexperience showed up. You know, Jackson Dart, you can't, can't, can't throw an interception there late. You cannot. You must pin them back. Worst case scenario. But there were so many moments in that game that you can look back and say, I mean, Denver put themselves in that position to be down 26 to 8. So there is fault in their first three quarters with coaching and playing. But in the fourth quarter, you have to have a little bit of help to have a comeback. All right, Seaton, what's the poll question today? That Giants tip, by the way, and then the score for the touchdown. That's a crazy play. Oh, yeah, the ricochet. That is. That is a crazy play. I mean, the Giants got breaks there, but then even the pass interference that put him down towards the goal line, that wasn't pass interference, in my opinion. But there were moments there where it could have gone either way. If Jackson Dart doesn't get in the first try and they have to run the clock a little bit, and then if he scores, Denver doesn't come back to win this game. Also, if your kicker makes two extra points, he might not be around this week as well. These are just simple things where. And I'm listening to that game on the radio with Bob Papa, who calls the Giants games, and it was like they didn't even look at it as a foregone conclusion. They're going to make the extra point. They're like, well, he's already missed one. He missed his second one. And then I'm going, oh, because all you need is two first downs in your field goal range in today's NFL. But that was wild. Patriots, Bears, Eagles Chiefs, Cowboys, Packers, Niners, Panthers, all pick up wins there. We'll run down the college football. Had a great weekend in South Bend. That's a big week for Notre Dame because you win and everybody else was losing in the top 25. What other poll questions are you thinking about, Seaton? Well, we like to start Mondays with who had the worst weekend. Okay. That's always a lot of fun. Brewers seem like a fairly obvious one. Yeah, but they weren't in it. I mean, they got, I guess, getting embarrassed by getting swept. Yeah, they got swept. And they'll be the Trivial Pursuit answer of which team did Shohei Ohtani have the greatest game in the history of the sport against? That's tough. Your Milwaukee Brewers? I would say the Giants, just because that was devastating. You could see Jackson dart on the sidelines just crushed. Crushed. And it's not like they had room for error with the coaching staff. But you do have your quarterback. Cam Scaboo is going to run like that until he can't run like that anymore. Defense played well and then they didn't play well. So that one to me. What are the other candidates for worse? Loss of the weekend. Well, yeah, we have the brewers, we have the Giants. We can put the jets in there, too. I think you're losing 136 to the Panthers. That's not a great game. And you're going to bench your quarterback. I, you know, I tried to watch. There's certain games where I go, yeah, I can't. I just. I can't. I'm trying. There's nothing here. I do love the jets helmets, but that's not enough to go. Yeah, I'm going to be glued to my TV set. I told you early I thought the Patriots were a playoff team. And the Patriots are a good team now. Granted, they beat the Titans, but that was a big win for their head coach, Mike Vrabel. Cam Ward feel bad for that fella. Yeah, well, I feel bad for him, but then you got to hold on to the football. Like, there's only so much I can feel bad for. When you go back to pass, you're supposed to hold onto the football when you throw the pass. Let's see. Like, that's exactly why I feel so bad for him, because that's how wrong things are going right now for him. Is that just simple things like that are going to mean. He's a kid, you know, you just like to see. I like to see them do better than worse. What other teams are we going to throw in that list? Yeah. Paulie I'd like to throw the Raiders in there. Not a lot of people talking about it. They're two and five. They lost 31 to zero. The Chiefs had 30 first downs, the Raiders had two. It was a complete no show. They were over seven on third down and they came in this year with Geno. Smith was like, oh, you've upgraded a quarterback. Ashton Genti. Sure thing. Tight end is great. The defensive line is good. They're non threatening. I said I thought that they were going to be better than the Broncos this year. I thought with Pete Carroll, Gino Playwell, Ashton Genti, Max Crosby, Bowers, I thought, okay, you guys can be competitive in the west and they're not competitive at all. When you get shut out, I mean that's embarrassing. Look, I didn't think they would beat the Chiefs but be competitive. That's where as an owner I would have a problem with the product that's on the field. If we're not competitive, I look right at the head coach. That's on you. And then it starts to trickle down. But the Raiders are not competitive. Yes. Eaton, it's a hangover from Thursday, but can we put the Steelers on there? I know it's a Thursday game and then we had Friday, so it's not technically the weekend. Sure. That's a bad loss to me. Yeah, well, don't mess with Joe Flacco. I mean that's. They paid the price. Yeah. You know. Yeah. Mess around, find out. Flacco edition. Yeah. Yeah. Paul. I'll throw LSU football in there for worst loss of the weekend. They can't afford one when it's going well. You lose to a semi football school in Vandy, no offense, just historically not going the right direction. Quietly going the wrong direction. I think we might be underrating Vandy to be fair. Yes. However, historically, yes. Lsu. Vandy. Yeah. When you're thinking LSU against Vandy, it's like how much are we going to win by? But it feels like, and I've said this at the start of the year, it just doesn't feel like Brian Kelly is embraced there, that he's, that they've warmed up to him and it just feels awkward now. He's not going to lose his job, but it just feels awkward. And you're watching that game and Vandy was the better team. And I never thought in my lifetime like there's certain teams that I watched growing up where they were always going to be the something to zero, 54 to nothing. And then all of a sudden Indiana is back. Vandy is back. These are the teams always on the other end. Mizzou. Yes. Todd, I don't want to spoil my worst of the weekend, but the Wisconsin Badgers football program, what happened there? They lose to Iowa, 37 nothing. Last week they lose at this another home game, 34 nothing. Back to back home shutouts giving up 30 plus points. And that's getting a field goal out of it. Cooked. Yeah. Luke Fickle can't hold on to his job there. Me camp. And you know what? He was a hot candidate a couple of years ago. It's like, hey, man, that guy could be at Ohio State. And it's like, he won't be at Wisconsin much longer. Billy Napier got fired at Florida. Seemed like a foregone conclusion. There'll be a payout there as well. Yes, I have. We have Wisconsin on the list. I also put Florida State on the list. Losing the Stanford, that's not great. I watched the game and there are very limited cameras, camera angles. And then, you know, you're watching, you know, last play, last couple of plays, and Stanford's not very good. That's one of those crazy. Wait a minute. They're playing where it's like North Carolina played at Cal. North Carolina didn't have a good weekend either. And by the way, this is what I don't understand about reality shows. When they were going to do a documentary or whatever, that docu series was on Hulu with North Carolina football. Then they decide that they don't want to do it with everything going on. No, now is when I want to see it. I want to see the mess. I don't want to see, you know, when the turkey comes out of the oven. I want to see all the mess in the kitchen there. They're like, no, we don't want to show you that. That's when it's interesting, you know, that's when things get juicy there. Now I would want to see a documentary on North Carolina football. Yes, Paul, by the way, LSU's next two games, A&M and Alabama, Wisconsin's next three games, Oregon, Washington, Indiana. That's a sound in Madison. Maybe not scored till December. Thank you, Todd. Yeah, it's been bad. It's bad. Let me see if there's anything else. We'll talk a little bit more about the significance of Shohei Otani. I was actually at one of the greatest games turned in by a pitcher hitter in baseball history. And I'll offer that one up as a maybe a comp. Or consider this Shohei Otani. What he did Friday night. And you know, you're, he's hitting home runs out of Dodger Stadium. God, I love the sound of when he hits a home run. It's awesome. Well, except for if you're the pitcher. Yes, Todd. And the reactions of the teammates and they're all like, their jaws dropping. Like, what did he just do? They're acting like fans. You know, it's not like teammates. It's like Freddie Freeman, he, he was probably more excited than any fan that was watching this. All right, we're just getting started on this Monday 877-3DP show. We'll get to your phone calls, we'll talk some baseball, we'll talk some football. Coming up a little bit later on RG3 will stop by Ron Darling, who was on the call Friday night for TBS with the Dodgers and the Brewers. We'll take a break. We're back after this Dan Patrick Show.

The great Paul Scheer made me feel good. I'm like, oh, wow, Angela and Jenna, I am so psyched you're here. What was that like for you to a soft launch into the show.

Listen to the Traverse Podcast from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the iHeartRadio app. Apple Podcast Podcast or wherever you get your podcast. The Rich Russians Falling out of Windows podcast is back. Sad Oligarch Season 2 Since we left you in 2023 after season one, many politically motivated Russian millionaires have continued to die in suspicious circumstances. We dig deeper into these odd deaths which include everything from mushroom poisoning and mysterious heart attacks, the window clumsiness and suicide by decapitation. One thing we have found since we started back in 2022 is the information on the suspicious deaths has become much harder to find. Not just that, it seems as if state controlled media in Russia is being utilized to purposely confuse and contradict the reporting that gets put out. As you can probably Imagine, this season two gets very weird. Listen to Sad Oligarch on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. The Internet is something we make, not just something that happens to us. I'm Bridget Todd, host of the Tech and Culture Podcast There Are no Girls on the Internet There Are no Girls on the Internet is not just about tech. It's about culture and policy and art and expression and how we as humans exist and fit with one another. In our new season, I'm talking to people like Anil Dash, an OG entrepreneur and writer who refuses to be cynical about the Internet. I love tech. You know, I've been a nerd my whole life, but it does have to be for something like it's not just for its own sake. It's a fascinating exploration about the power of the Internet for both good and bad. They use WhatsApp to get the price of rice at the market that is often 12 hours away. They're not going to be like, we don't like the terms of service, therefore we're not trading rice this season. It's an inspiring story that focuses on people as the core building blocks of the Internet. Platforms exist because of the regular people on them. And I think that's a real important story to keep repeating. I created There Are no Girls on the Internet because the future belongs to all of us. New episodes every Tuesday and Friday. Listen to There are no Girls on the Internet on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcast. I'm Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman, host of the Psychology Podcast. Here's a clip from an upcoming conversation about exploring human potential. I was going to schools to try to teach k these skills and I get eye rolling from teachers or I get students who would be like, it's easier to punch someone in the face. When you think about emotion regulation, like, you're not going to choose an adaptive strategy which is more effortful to use unless you think there's a good outcome as a result of it, if it's going to be beneficial to you. Because it's easy to just say like. Like you go blank yourself, right? It's easy. It's easy to just drink the extra beer. It's easy to ignore, to suppress seeing a colleague who's bothering you and just like walking the other way. Avoidance is easier. Ignoring is easier. Denial is easier. Drinking is easier. Yelling, screaming is easy. Complex problem solving, meditating, you know, takes effort. Listen to the psychology podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Couple of odd stats over the weekend, The Eagles are 5 and 2. They've been outgained in every game this season. That's the best record by any team outgained in each of its first seven games since 1940. This is the start of the day brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards of the program. Since the start of last season, Notre Dame has won eight games against ranked opponents, tied with Ohio State for most of any of the FBS teams. And that goes a long way when you start to look at quality opponents, quality wins as well. And it felt like, you know, with eight or nine of the nine of the top 25 teams losing, that opens the door for Notre Dame. This was their tough game schedules, not that difficult moving forward. Also, in the last four games, Vlad Guerrero Jr. III has three singles, three doubles, three home runs. The only other player in Baseball history to have a similar span in a single playoff series series. Babe Ruth in 1928. Stat of the day. Stat of the day. Stat of the day. Stat of the day. Here comes. Here comes that what? Stat of the day. Babe had four singles, three doubles, three home runs in the first four games. I wouldn't hear just a suggestion to the Mariners. I'd walk him. I'd walk him. Vlad Guerrero has earned that distinction. There's only a couple players where you go, up, he's up. We're gonna walk him. Which brings us to Shohei Ohtani and what he did on Friday night where you strike out the side and then you go, hit a home run and I go, I'll never see that again. And then all of a sudden he came up to the plate and then he hit another home run and then he struck out a few more and then he came up to the plate and he did this again. Big righty McGill sets on the mound. Here's the pitch. And Ohtani drives one left center field. Did you go, Shohei Ohtani, the stuff of legend. All right. Nobody will be able to do this again because no pitcher leads off. When you think about it, Shohei Ohtani striking out the side. Pitchers have done that in playoff games. But then they don't come to the plate as the leadoff batter, and they usually come to the plate as the number nine hitter. But Shohei hitting three home runs, striking out 10. But you also have comparisons here, and it's hard to do it. It's hard to compare because it's not really apples to apples here because I was at the Reds game at riverfront stadium in 1971, June of 71, when Rick Wise threw a no hitter, and he also hit two home runs. That's pretty incredible. Now, it wasn't a playoff game, but it was a no hitter in two home runs. So that's on the list. Bob Gibson, who is one of the most underrated pitchers, I think in history, God, that guy was unbelievable, dominant, tough. The World series where game seven, I think he struck out 12 and hit a home run in a World Series clinching win. Went the distance, I'm sure Tony Cloninger, he hit two grand slams in a game as a pitcher. So there, there are moments like that. But most of your pitchers are not, you know, getting the opportunity. Well, nobody gets this opportunity that Ohtani did. Is it the greatest game in baseball history, considering it was a clinching game, Playoffs, you strike out 10, you hit three home runs. Pretty incredible. Pretty incredible. And it's one of those where you go, I think I've seen everything, too. I haven't seen everything as long as he's playing. And people will bring up Babe Ruth. I mean, Babe Ruth pitched one game in the World Series, I think, where he went 15 innings and then he had a base hit to win the game. I mean, nobody's going 15. They barely go five. So you could put Babe Ruth in there, but Babe was the best pitcher in baseball and then stopped pitching. He had like 92, 93 wins in his career. And then he started hitting. And if he was playing, you know, today, be weird to see him playing it today, but if he was pitching and hitting, then he would probably give similar results. But what you saw with Ohtani, it's incredible. And to see the pitches he was throwing and he's throwing 100 and. But he's throwing nasty breaking balls. And that's what's scary to whoever's going to play the Dodgers. That pitching staff has been unbelievable. Bullpen, not so much, but that starting pitching has been wonderful. And Ohtani, when he came to the plate and I thought, I wonder if they're going to pitch to him again? Boom. I said, yeah, well, they did. He did. Out of Dodger Stadium. I think Willie Stargell is the only other guy that might have done that. So when you. I want to give you context of greatest games of all time. If you include a pitcher and what he did hitting, and it's not to diminish anybody. It's not to single out and say, that's the greatest of all time. It's. It's happening right now. So recency bias with that. But we'll never see something like that again. I can't imagine seeing something. And by the way, what was lost on a lot of people is Ohtani had the lowest batting average of all the Dodgers starters. He wasn't playing well at all. First three games, not playing well at all. And even, I mean, the whole playoffs has not been hitting well. I think under.200. That's what was surprising is, okay, all right, he's back. And then all of a sudden, oh, he's really back. Oh, my God, he's back, back, back, back. And then you strike out 10. But just to give you content, by the way, sitting when your team. So I had Bench and Rose now, it wasn't the Big Red Machine. Now they did have Concepcion, bench, Rose, Perez, George Foster just got there in a trade, I think, from San Francisco. They didn't have Joe Morgan, but still got no Hit. I went to two no hitters that year against the Reds, Ken Holtzman of the Cubs. And you're sitting there and you're going, we better get a base hit here soon. And then all of a sudden, Ken Holtzman throws a no hitter. So the Reds were no hit twice in 1971. And I met both of them. Yeah, both of those no hitters were in the month of June. That's all I remember. And I had bad seats. I was in right field for Kenny Holtzman, and I was up the first baseline for Rick wise. Yes, Todd. June 23, 1971, Rick Wise at age 25, the no hitter, and two home runs at Riverfront against the Reds. And I think he had Adidas baseball shoes on, like they were maroon Adidas, you know, I remember I thought he had three stripes. So for some reason. Yeah. Paulie, does the emergence of Ohtani help or hurt Beirut's legacy? I'm not sure the answer on that. We're talking about him more. Yeah, yeah. But he's also getting dinged that, oh, Ohtani's doing what only one other guy ever did, really, at the highest level. But it's not a comparison because Babe wasn't pitching and hitting at the same time. Now you can say when he was pitching and he got four at bats, how many times did he hit three home runs in a game? I guess you could make that comparison. But Babe is going to end up probably with more wins than Shohei Otani. I mean, babe, is it 92 or 93 wins? I think that might be the number there to throw in with the hitting, the home runs, the batting average. But you're talking about, you know, a legacy here. You're talking about one of those iconic. Boy, I was there, and I got to see that. I can't imagine what, what it was like when Babe Ruth was playing. But you didn't have the advent of tv. It was radio. It was word of mouth. And you're just like, oh, my gosh, this guy. I remember thinking, he must be 6, 5. And he wasn't Babe. Babe was probably 5, 10, 5, 11, 215, which is, as Tim Kirchen pointed out, he said he's about the same size as Rich Aurelia. And I go, oh, because you look at Babe and you go, he's the biggest guy I've ever seen. He's King Kong. Yes, Todd. And 215 is hard to believe because you hear all these stories, true or not, that he'd be eating several hot dogs right before a Game. There's all these wild stories about how much he's consum before enduring games. Yes, Paulie, if you go back and look at it, Babe Ruth was semi ordered to stop pitching because the Yankees didn't want to pay the double salary that he may have deserved. It was a financial decision. But in the postseason, Babe Ruth had three starts, all in the World Series. He was three and oh, three complete games, a 0.87 ERA. Yeah. Spotless. Yeah. But interesting that you can be the best pitcher. Imagine if that was happening. You're the best pitcher, but we want you to quit and be the best hitter in the game. But Otani is able to do both and credit to him. It's fascinating to watch. And I this, I think when he first started, I, I kind of looked at him like I did Bo Jackson. I'm like, God, how great would he be if he just did football with Bo Jackson or just did baseball? But that made him special. Ohtani, if he was just a hitter, how great would he be or how great would he be as a pitcher? But this is what you want. You want the novelty of that. Like Travis Hunter. Would we care about Travis Hunter if he was just playing DB or just playing wide receiver? No, probably not. Although he did have a touchdown yesterday. By the way, the Jags. Hello. About a little defense and Matthew Stafford. No, Pukinakua and d. Are you Devonte Adams? I always say DeAndre Hopkins. Devonte Adams was wonderful. Had three touchdown receptions. My offensive player of the year last night, Christy McCaffrey and the 49ers. We, we bought into the Falcons. We bought in. We're like, okay, all right. And all of a sudden your coach says that Bijon Robinson is the best player in football. All right, okay. And then he trained with Christian McCaffrey in the off season. And Christian McCaffrey was still the mentor. Yes. Paulie, I'd like to get on this topic early. Could Matthew Stafford steal the mvp? No, it's Patrick Mahomes. Oh. But story wise people like Stafford, he's got more of a story with his. I think he's got 17 touchdowns, two picks. I got the latest. Well, you'll be surprised at this. According to DraftKings, as of this morning, NFL MVP odds. Patrick Mahomes, your favorite. Baker Mayfield. Josh Allen. Drake May. Drake. Drake May. Quietly. Those are your. He's good, Drake. May is good. He is. He's good. And I go back to Tim Hasselbeck, the mothership analyst and former quarterback brother of Matt Hasselbeck, and he raved about Drake maybe and others were like, I don't know. You know, we saw him regress and Carolina and man, you watch him, he's good. Dak Prescott, I mean that offense is good. I thought they were a playoff caliber team if they had Micah Parsons and then they get rid of him and I didn't think they'd make the playoffs. Micah, by the way, had three sacks yesterday. But Dak Prescott is playing at an MVP level. I don't know how good the team is going to be but Dak Prescott and George Pickens, hey, I mean I didn't like the move because I just didn't like his whole Persona and Pittsburgh, but man, he made some catches. CD Lamb is back. Like they're. That's a really good offense, really good offense and he made some wonderful grabs. I I'm going to give credit to Dak because I mean Dak against the NFC east at home, he doesn't lose and he doesn't lose to the commanders. And then Jaden Daniels gets banged up. If the Cowboys have a little bit of defense and even then I think we were looking can you be average? If you're average at defense, you can make the playoffs. But they're still the worst defensive team in the nfc. But it was fun, fun watching them and the commanders. With Jaden Daniels banged up a little bit here, the Giants self imploding. The Eagles are still like the Eagles, still trying to figure this out. You know, you're watching you go. I don't. God, they're throwing the ball a lot. Boy, they're completing a lot. Okay, maybe they got it all figured out. And Jalen Hurts played wonderful at a perfect quarterback rating. All right, couple of phone calls. Best and worst. David in Ohio leads us off. Hi David. Hey, Dan. I got a best and worst of the weekend as well as a quick start of the day. Best of the weekend, got to watch Shay and his roommate on the podcast do their little debate. Dylan did a great job moderating and kept things for going off the rails. Worst of the weekend, it's got to be the Giants kicking game and two missed extra points down the stretch that really cost the Giants the game. Congrats to Todd's Broncos and my stat of the day real quick. The Broncos 33 fourth quarter points were the most in NFL history. Team that was shut out for the first three quarters. Thank you. All right. Thank you, David. Buddha in San Francisco. Good morning, Buddha. What's on your mind today? Happy Monday, boys. Let's ride Fritzi. Dan, while watching the Broncos Giants game yesterday. I could not help but think of Fritzi. I mean, it was just that, though, like, the. The Giants were just driving the left lane the whole game. They just wouldn't get over until the fourth quarter. And then finally, the Giants kicker just lets the Bronco Broncos pass. And then they won the game. So what a wild ending. Best game of the. Of the. Of the year, hands down. And best of the weekend. And the greatness with Shohei OHTANI Striking out 10 batters, like you guys mentioned, throwing 100 miles an hour, hitting three home runs. The second one, by the way, he hit all the way to Anaheim, I think giving America a legendary performance. And like, with all the comments and, like, the stats and, you know, the things that were being said. The best thing came from Mookie Betts after the game to a reporter. He said, we're like the Bulls and he's Michael Jordan. Perhaps you have heard of him. And worst of the weekend, and this one's hard because, I mean, watching the Raiders debacle and Casey, they didn't even use one of their three timeouts they had left. Like, Pete Carroll was on the sideline going like, we're done. And. But it still has to go to the kicker, Dan from the Giants. I mean, watching that extra point miss, it was gut wrenching. And when I saw it and all the time left, it was just, like, not good. Thank you, Buddha. Al in Atlanta. Hi, Al. Morning, Dan. No, best at all, of course. And you know, I choose not to call in when the Falcons win because I'm sure nobody wants to hear me happy, but I am just at a loss for words today. I know I've never felt this pain before because ever since that game we refused to mention down south here, Kyle Shanahan has not beaten the Falcons. And this is the first time it ever happened. And it was very painful. Then I didn't go to sleep last night. I just sat on my couch staring at the ceiling blankly because we all know I can't see it and just wondered what the hell happened. Al is blind. So I don't know if that makes it worse that you're just imagining what's happening in front of you. Al. It's painful. I can't. I can't take it. I'm listening to the announcers. I'm listening to Rico call play by play, and I'm just. No, I don't need it. And I don't need them telling me. That touchdown that McCaffrey scored late in the game, he was pulled across the goal line by his deep offensive lineman. I don't need to hear that. Don't tell me that. Let me just think. He scored it. Naturally, I don't have a reason to be mad at the referees. Thank you, Al. Yes, Paul. The Falcons are the toughest to figure out. A couple of weeks ago, blanked by the Panthers, beat the Commanders, beat the Bills, lose to a 49ers with a backup quarter. I know, I know. Proceed at your own caution. There's certain teams proceed with caution. We'll take a break. Play of the day up next, Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation.

The great Paul Scheer made me feel good. I'm like, oh, wow, Angela and Jenna, I am so psyched you're here. What was that like for you to soft launch into the show?

Listen to the Traverse Podcast from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast or wherever you get your podcast. The Rich Russians Falling out of Windows podcast is back. Sad Oligarch Season 2 Since we left you in 2023 after season one, many politically motivated Russian millionaires have continued to die in suspicious circumstances. We dig deeper into these odd deaths, which include everything from mushroom poisoning and mysterious heart attacks to window clumsiness and suicide by decapitation. One thing we have found since we started back in 2022 is the information on the suspicious deaths has become much harder to find. Not just that, it seems as if state controlled media in Russia is being utilized to purposely confuse and contradict the reporting that gets put out. As you can probably imagine, season two gets very weird. Listen to Sad Oligarch on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Internet is something we make, not just something that happens to us. I'm Bridget Todd, host of the Tech and Culture podcast. There Are no Girls on the Internet There Are no Girls on the Internet is not just about tech. It's about culture and policy and art and expression and how we as humans exist and fit with one another. In our new season, I'm talking to people like Anil Dash, an OG entrepreneur and writer who refuses to be cynical about the Internet. I love tech, you know, I've been a nerd my whole life, but it does have to be for something like it's not just for its own sake. It's a fascinating exploration about the power of the Internet for both good and bad. They use WhatsApp to get the price of rice at the market that is often 12 hours away. They're not going to be like, we don't like the term just therefore we're not trading rice this season. It's an inspiring story that focuses on people as the core building blocks of the Internet platforms exist because of the regular people on them. And I think that's a real important story to keep repeating. I created There Are no Girls on the Internet because the future belongs to all of us. New episodes every Tuesday and Friday. Listen to There Are no Girls on the Internet on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman, host of the Psychology Podcast. Here's a clip from an upcoming conversation about exploring human potential. Potential. I was going to schools to try to teach kids these skills and I get eye rolling from teachers or I get students who would be like, it's easier to punch someone in the face. When you think about emotion regulation, like, you're not going to choose an adaptive strategy which is more effortful to use unless you think there's a good outcome as a result of it, if it's going to be beneficial to you. Because it's easy to say like, like you go blank yourself, right? It's easy. It's easy to just drink the extra beer. It's easy to ignore, to suppress seeing a colleague who's bothering you and just like, want walk the other way. Avoidance is easier. Ignoring is easier. Denial is easier. Drinking is easier. Yelling, screaming is easy. Complex problem solving, meditating, you know, takes effort. Listen to the psychology podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Oh my God. The play. The play of the day. Butter lips. I got it. This is the play of the day. Check this out. Broncos are back at the line of scrimmage. Bidet again, wide left outside of Cortland Sutton. He recessed to Nix's right with three receivers outside his right. Knicks on a Design quarterback run. Bo is at the 10. Bow is at the 5. Touchdown Denver. Holy mackerel. The Broncos are an extra point away from putting 30 on the Giants in the fourth quarter. That's courtesy of the Broncos radio network. Bo Nix is the first player in NFL history to have two rushing touchdowns and throw two touchdown passes in the fourth quarter. That's your play of the day.

Update the poll results if you can from hour one. Seaton. Yeah, we got two of them up there right now. Who had the worst weekend in the NFL? Right now, the Giants are running away with that one. Then we had another worst of the weekend between the Brewers, Wisconsin, Florida State and lsu. Right now it's basically a tie between Florida State and the Brewers. Well, brewers were built for the regular season. We talked about this. In fact, you know, people in Milwaukee would be like, why don't you have. Why don't you talk about the Brewers? They were a great regular season story, and there are teams that are built for the regular season, there are teams that are built for the postseason. And I thought they did a wonderful job, start to finish. But when you get to the postseason, you got to be built a little bit differently. Now you're going against a buzz saw. Their payroll is three times your payroll. I mean, let's be fair. Milwaukee had a wonderful season. It did. I don't know if it's enough of a consolation prize. Where you go, man, we got pretty close. You know, we're on the doorstep here. Zach in Knoxville. Hi, Zach. What's on your mind today? Adp, thanks for taking my call. Best of the weekend was being Alex Mortensen, the interim coach for uab. Chris Mortensen's son, get his first win. And my worst of the weekend dates back to Thursday. And I I hate to blame Seaton o' Connor for this, but I think that he's robbed us from the Al Michaels. There he goes. I hear him gearing up for it and he wants to do it, and something in the back of his head says, nope, I don't think Al's doing it anymore. I think as much, I think he took it out of his vocabulary because when Seaton did it to Al Michaels and there he goes, and I was like, I sound like that was not. He was not really received well. No, that didn't go over as well as I thought it would. Chris in Syracuse. Hi, Chris. What's on your mind? Hey, thanks, Dan. Hey, I got a couple words for you and a question, and you mentioned George Pickens last segment. Whenever I see him, Dan, I always think of former defensive back of the Niners, Merton Hanks. They both wore that long face covering that covered their neck, and they both look like they have such long necks. One of my worst my vikings quarterback situation. J.J. mcCarthy unproven, hurt a lot. Went's not awful, but not that good either. And just last season, at the end of the season, we let Sam Darnold and Daniel Jones both walk. And my other was Friday night Mariners fans cheering when George Springer got hit by that pitch and had to come out of the game. And a question, Dan. Last week you guys were reminiscing about the attic days when the show was in the attic and it was the same show when you were eating a Popsicle and you kind of misjudged how much time you had to eat the Popsicle. Wasn't there a time when you were in the attic. You misjudged your time and you were outside by the pool or something. I was cleaning the pool. Of course. I can't stay still during the commercial breaks. I'm always moving. And I would go down three floors and I'd be outside and I'd be cleaning the pool. All of a sudden, you know, I think Paulie's banging on the window, you know, and I run upstairs. And then the Danettes were left to bring us back from commercial break. They're like, we didn't know what to do. I said, okay. Welcome back Seaton. What do you think of the Mets bullpen? Angela in Oklahoma. Hi, Angela. What's on your mind today? Good morning, guys. I just want to call in and say my best of the weekend. Was OU winning? Woohoo. And also the worst was when Miami lost my husband's Florida and I had to deal with his whiny. But anywho, I also have a poem I wanted to read to you. It's called oh, Dan, I'm Fat. Okay, there it goes. Week 6. Watching OU play, I just sat void, numb with dismay. Of course, Arch Manning came to play. He stood up and said, let's go. Okay. Oh, Dan, I'm so mad. Longhorns won. That makes me sad. It had to be Texas that threw us around. McTeer wasn't ready to throw first down. Oh, Dan, I'm so mad. Every opportunity that we had this week, McTeer gave me hope. All that praying to the Pope. Oh, Dan, I'm now not mad. Listening to you makes me glad. Paul, Todd, Seaton, Marvin, Dylan, Tyler and the big German. All of you make me smile. I never want to change the dial. I love you guys. Well, thank you, Angela. Emotional, creative. I love it. Appreciate that. Thank you. Yes, Marvin. I like the raspy voice. Yeah, kind of Betty. She's precocious. She's got Kim Karn's voice. She does? Yeah. Little bitty Dave. Demi Moore. Does she have. I never heard her Demi Moore. Oh, I just look at her. Yeah, she's kind of. You go back to St. Elmo's Fire. Yep. Raspy. And she had raspy. Yeah. Now I think women are trying to have raspy. You mean the vocal fry? I think so, yes. Would you like some vocal fries with that burger, please? Yes. Todd? Yeah? Do you ever get to a point where I wanted like, you purposely try to give yourself a cold to make yourself extra raspy and no categories? No. Do you? If I thought that really attracted back in the day, the opposite sex you know, I would get like low bar pneumonia if I had to. Low bar. I would say whiskey and some cigars or cigarettes there, Todd. That'll do it. That could do it too. But I think that there is something attractive about. Oh. If that's the case, Seaton would have had a raspier voice. Yeah. Sometimes it's only in the morning. Early in the morning, late at night, it's early drop. Yeah. But if you're. If you're doing morning drive radio and you wake up and you have that voice in the morning, it's pretty good. It wears off. Except for Dylan. Dylan's voice doesn't wear off. He sounds that way at six in the morning or six at night. Hour two on the way on this Monday. That was your cue, Seton, to give me a little more Dylan. Yeah, I mean, I guess it's kind of what it sound like all the time, really. Robert Griffin Jr III. We'll talk some football with him. Ron Darling was on the call for Shohei Ohtani's game on Friday night. Fritz, he's here. Seaton's here. Marv's here. Paula, yours truly and the back room. Guys, hour two, right after this.

Crimeless Hillbilly Heist from Smartless Media, Campside Media and big money players. It's a wild tale about a gang of high functioning nitwits who somehow pulled off America's third largest cash heist. Kind of like Robin Hood, except for the part where he steals from the rich and gives to the poor. I'm not that generous. It's a damn near inspiring true story for anyone out there who's ever shot for the moon then just totally muffed up the landing. They stole $17 million and had not bought a ticket to help him escape. So we're sitting like, oh, God, what do we do? What do we do? That was dumb. People, do not follow my example.
