Final hour meet Friday. Linda cone, legend, hall of famer after 34 years saying goodbye to the mothership. Today's her last day, so we will catch up with Elko coming up. There are rivalries. Then there's the Yankees Red Sox from Fenway. Sunday night baseball this weekend on NBC. And Peacock. Peacock Also where you can see this award nominated program Monday through Friday for three hours, Back row, Fritzi, Grateful Deadhead Dylan, who's also doing the cooking today on Meet Friday. Marvin up front. No, he's not a White Sox fan. He just likes the hat. And of course, Paulie as well. USA loses to Turkey and it's not the end of the world. In fact, you know, as a result, I think a lot of people are looking at this going, wait a minute, what does this mean now, moving forward? I don't know if it means anything, but I know their. Their coach, Team usa, Mauricio Pochettino, had this to say to the reporters after the loss.

[Guest or Analyst]

For you not to say, congratulations that we won the group, that is a little bit sad. It's very positive. To finish in the way that we finish cannot be possible. I'm sorry, guys. It cannot be possible that Turkey finishes celebrating the three point and Australia celebrating the qualification. But I was celebrating the qualification and come here. And for you not to say, congratulations that we won the group, that is a little bit sad. But only, only that I need to remember you and everyone that we won the group. Sorry, guys, we won.

[Dan Patrick]

Yes. And they'll play Bosnia coming up next week. I don't know if something's lost in translation about how we approach things like this or how this legendary coach approaches things, maybe in a different country, like, we get paid to criticize, critique, and I think that's what the reporters are doing now. That doesn't mean that everybody who is doing the critiquing should be. Because you might be asking a question that you think is obvious that you lost. How do you feel? He's saying, no, you should congratulate us. We did what we were supposed to do. He did his job, they got out of the group stage, and now you go to the knockout rounds. And I think that's what he's saying. Don't be petty and say, oh, you could have gone undefeated for these three matches. And his point is, let's think bigger. This is, this is macro managing. Think about how far we can go, how far we've gone. We have offensive firepower for a change. We have a chance, we have a chance to do something we've never done. And I think that's what he's trying to say. But of course, me being a soccer expert, I've been watching now for a couple of weeks, so I know everything about it. It is fun, though, to overhear or be a part of a conversation where somebody is telling you about soccer and Messi and, you know, Erling, Erling Holland and Bob. Hey, you know. And you're going, okay, all right. But I, I like it because, you know, normally we don't do that where you'd have conversations, it feels like, but Team USA in the United States feels like, you know, we're getting caught up in it a little bit more. We have a possibility of advancing. So that's the exciting part of it. And good for Team USA and soccer overall. Yes.

[Dylan]

Dylan, as a soccer expert. Dan, do you have a. Your favorite to win the Golden Boot? I know Messi's in the lead right now, but do you think that's going to last?

[Dan Patrick]

I'm going to say Mbappe used to be with Paris Saint Germain. It's a meat Friday. Dylan doing double duty. Well, maybe he's doing one thing well today. Maybe it's the cooking. What is the menu today? I. Man, I don't know why I've been roughing you up. I think, you know, you seem like you're doing like a B minus job so far as a Danette, but welcome to the team. I mean, you know, you get knocked around a little bit here. You're kind of a crash test dummy.

[Dylan]

Well, if I average your B minus and Paulie's A minus, is that like a B plus? Sure, I'll take that.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, go ahead.

[Caller or Guest]

All right.

[Dan Patrick]

I don't know what it's going to get you because my B minus is far more important than Paulie's A minus. What's the menu? Meet Friday. Yes. Still.

[Dylan]

Well, Paulie is actually a professor, so adjunct.

[Paulie]

I'm not adjunct. No, no, no. That was a long time ago. I was adjunct. I am full time professor.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Paulie]

Adjunct.

[Dan Patrick]

So, yes, good. You can take Paulie's class at Sacred Heart University. Good luck with that. What's on the menu?

[Dylan]

Well, then we have beef Wellington, USA style.

[Dan Patrick]

Usa.

[Dylan]

Usa, usa. And we have cherry pepper pork chops, a little spice cheesy garlic bread and jalapeno cheesy corn.

[Dan Patrick]

Who has it better than we do?

[Todd]

No, nobody, man.

[Caller or Guest]

I'm.

[Gary Miller]

There's.

[Dan Patrick]

There's not the energy that's normally there for a meat Friday. I don't know what it is. I can't. I mean, that was almost like smooth jazz, like you guys were harmonizing a little bit. I like, you know, quiet riot or something like that. Rage against the Machine.

[Caller or Guest]

Nobody.

[Dan Patrick]

Yes. Yes. Dylan, come on, feel the me.

[Todd]

I jumped in on you.

[Caller or Guest]

I was.

[Dylan]

I was gonna say, I think I know why Todd was a little lackluster. There he. Todd has can't do mushrooms. So he came and asked if there's a way to remove the mushrooms from inside of the beef Wellington. To which I told him probably not.

[Todd]

Turns out it's all mixed in the mushrooms. The rubbery nature of the mushrooms causes issues, and the corn is also a problem for me. Not that everyone needs to know my bowel situation.

[Dan Patrick]

You tell us whether we want to know or not.

[Todd]

I can have the pork chops and the garlic cheesy bread. The other two things would cause an issue for me.

[Dan Patrick]

Speaking of meaningless conversation, Dan Patrick takes a gamble. Yesterday we recorded that. So it's big day, Ray. It's Dylan. Can't have a podcast without Dylan. And Shay and Irving. And we were talking about Joey Chestnut and the hot dog eating contest.

[Caller or Guest]

And then the hot dog eating contest. I'm going, Joey Chestnut under 72 and a half hot dogs. He hasn't gone over since 2021. And Dan, I did a little more research. So the average hot dog length is seven inches.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, here we go.

[Caller or Guest]

He's eating around huge.

[Dan Patrick]

He's eating. He's eating. Yeah, hold on now. Gonna get a yardstick.

[Caller or Guest]

And he's eaten around. Around 1300 of them.

[Gary Miller]

Oh, buddy.

[Caller or Guest]

Which means he's eaten 710ft of hot dogs, which is twice the height of the Statue of Liberty.

[Dan Patrick]

Statue Liberty is only 305ft.

[Caller or Guest]

That's what my research shows.

[Dan Patrick]

Is that from the base or is it from where she's, like, standing?

[Caller or Guest]

You always.

[Dan Patrick]

You always measure. Hold on, hold on.

[Dylan]

She.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, I see.

[Caller or Guest]

305ft and 1 inch. 93 meters.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay, see, I. That's why I said you said 305, and I thought it was more than that.

[Caller or Guest]

So the Statue alone is 151. So. Yeah, you measure from the base.

[Dan Patrick]

Gotta measure two bases. Don't they say that? It's just part of the gambling podcast there that we got around to betting on Joey Chestnut. Yes, Paul, I do have a question

[Paulie]

about the Nathan's hot dog eating contest. Is it more of an exhibition these days? Because I think it's Joey Chestnut versus the field. Dylan may know better about the betting odds, but no one's even close to him, Right?

[Dylan]

Yeah, well, Paul and I were kind of discussing this, like, is he bad for the sport? Joey Chestnut.

[Dan Patrick]

So he's too good at what he does. I don't watch it. I've only seen a couple of highlights. I find it pretty repulsive to watch some dude, you know, dipping his hot dog buns into water and slam in his Mouth. Yes, Dylan, One quick thing.

[Dylan]

If you want to see something really gnarly, watch the lemonade chugging contest. But he's Joey Chestnut's -2,000 to win. So to put that into context, Shohei Otani's -1600 to win the NL MVP. Spain was -1500 when they tied against Cape Verde. So I think he is sort of like the secretariat of hot dogs. Is he the most dominant at his game ever?

[Dan Patrick]

Joey Chestnut of any sport? If we're including this as a sport, it's a sport. Yeah, sure, I know now I know what the foodies will say. Well, everybody eats hot dogs. I mean, you know, everybody could try this. No, they, they can't. There is a science to it and I'm not interested in it. Yes, yes, Dylan, I promise you, I

[Dylan]

am closer to being able to do what Shohei Ohtani does than to eat 75 hot dogs in 10 minutes. And that's me. I'm not like, you know, some slender.

[Dan Patrick]

I doubt that. I've seen you do nine beers, nine dogs and nine inn winnings. You, you are closer to Joey Chestnut than Shohei Otani. Yes, Paul.

[Paulie]

Like if you're the second best hot dog eater in the world, you're not very well known. You just get a stomachache and a second place trophy or check. You're not even close to this guy.

[Dan Patrick]

No, but there's a guy who these days. No, no, no. Who's the other guy that used to be Kobayashi. Yeah.

[Paulie]

He's well retired, I think.

[Dan Patrick]

Is he?

[Paulie]

I think.

[Dan Patrick]

But if he goes to a barbecue, like how many hot dogs do you have if you go to a, like if you say, oh, Joey Chestnut's coming over. Hun. Oh, better go out and get four dozen hot dogs. Yes, Dylan.

[Dylan]

Yeah, I mean he is a machine. Like he people after the hot dog eating contest. In years past, people have seen him out drinking at a bar in Coney island after eating 70 hot dogs.

[Dan Patrick]

So we just got to got to wash it down with something. I'd be thirsty with all that salt. Yeah, Paul.

[Caller or Guest]

Yeah.

[Paulie]

Back in 2024, Kobayashi hung up his intestines and said, I'm done. And he said long term health concerns, damage to his system. He was concerned. He was having trouble tasting and smelling food after contests. It was having an effect on him.

[Dan Patrick]

Jesse in Vegas. Hi, Jesse, what do you have for me today?

[Caller or Guest]

Good morning, second time caller. Hey, this one's for Dylan. This is subject, but I work for the fire department. Dylan cooks all the time. We cook at the fire department all the time. And notoriously, every wife at the station doesn't cook. So when we're at the station eating steaks or lobster, shrimp or something nice smoked salmon. The wives eat cereal or bagel or something. None of them know how to cook. I know you just got engaged. Is that the same for you at home? And you guys enjoy the. Your week off.

[Dan Patrick]

Thank you, Jesse. I have no idea what Jesse was saying.

[Dylan]

I got it. So he's basically saying, like, at the firehouse, like, the dudes do the cooking and the wives don't. He is asking if, since I do the cooking, if my relationship is similar to that. And it actually is. She. I mean, my lovely fiance cannot cook at all. She can bake and do dessert and stuff.

[Caller or Guest]

Like, great.

[Dylan]

But I like doing the cooking, so it works out nicely. And I hate doing the cleaning, which also works out nicely.

[Dan Patrick]

James in New Mexico. Hi, James. What do you have for me?

[Caller or Guest]

Hey, dp, thanks for taking the call.

Yeah.

How's something for the I team? So in the. In the morning at the gym, they have SportsCenter on. And the other day they had the headline after the whole show. Hey. And catcher situation said show.

No.

And this morning after the USA lost, it said cold turkey day. So are we sure that Todd's not still working for the mothership?

[Dan Patrick]

Todd would love to be able to write those mock headlines, and mine are

[Todd]

cheesy, just like those that were just used.

[Dan Patrick]

And your brother doesn't work at the mothership anymore?

[Todd]

He doesn't, but he used to do sports center teases and all that kind of stuff. It's in the Fritz jeans to come up with very corny puns.

[Dan Patrick]

Colin in New York. Hi, Colin. What do you have for me?

[Caller or Guest]

Hey, Kate.

Dan. Listen, I'm not calling to ask you how you're doing.

Just.

I just wanted to get that out of the way. But I was just wondering, did you ever. Were you ever talking to Sandman? Like, and did he ever say anything about, like, maybe making, like, a movie about Chris Farley?

I mean, I think that would be great.

[Dan Patrick]

I don't know if he would do it. If anything, it'd be a documentary. I don't think Sandman, you know, you're gonna try to find somebody to play Chris Farley, but.

[Paulie]

Yeah, Paulie, back in. I think it was 10 years ago. I think it's called Anything for a Laugh. There's a documentary called I Am Chris Farley. I think his brother oversaw it, and it came out maybe 10 years ago.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. What was the name? John.

[Paulie]

His brother I think so.

[Dan Patrick]

I think he had a couple brothers. Yeah, I met one in Chicago. And I was at a bar and he came over because he heard I was there and he goes, hey, Chris is over at this bar. And then I went over. I don't think Chris had any idea. He wasn't in any shape to say hello to me, let's put it that way. He. He knew I. Who I was. I had met him before, but that night he was in his cups. Aaron in Fort Wayne. Hi, Aaron. What do you have for me?

[Caller or Guest]

Hey, Dan, thanks for taking my call. Got a few enhancers for you on the, on the Grateful Dead stuff. You know, I don't think. You don't have to get all banged up before you go to the show or listen to it. Maybe. I know you drink tequila, maybe eat the worm in the bottom of there. I don't know if that's a myth or, you know, it might be like a quarterback of mushrooms or something like that. But the Grateful Dead movie, it's a must see reckoning. One of the best acoustic albums of all time. And then the masterpiece by the Grateful Dead, Terrapin station. You got to put that on. And my last thing. Wnba. What are we doing with the wnba? What are they doing? They're better high school referees in Indiana than the WNBA has.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, it's, it's unfortunate because they, they seem to go out of their way to stunt their own growth here. With everything that's gone on, you got expansion coming on. Just feels like it's two steps forward and three steps back. All right, we'll take a break. Linda Cone, 34 years, announcing her retirement from the mothership. End of an era, really, when you think about all the different talent that has gone through there. Take a break. We're back after this Dan Patrick show.

More phone calls coming up this meet Friday. Dylan just sent me a note saying that eating 70 hot dogs is over 20,000 calories. So that's what Joey Chestnut will probably consume this weekend. Is that right, Dylan?

[Caller or Guest]

Yep.

[Dylan]

20,000 north of 20,000 calories. Just a light day.

[Dan Patrick]

All right. Somebody brought up, would Sandler do a Chris Farley movie? I don't think he did a documentary or documentary was done on Chris Farley. But I always think that Fritz he wants to do is Matt Foley, the great character from Saturday Night Live. My name is Matt Foley. I'm thrice divorced and I live in a van down by the river. That's solid.

[Caller or Guest]

All right.

[Dan Patrick]

I mean, I'm gonna say, yeah, okay. And entertain. I mean, it's late Friday, so I'm very generous right now. Very generous. Linda Cone, ESPN Sports center anchor, longest tenured sports center anchor, 34 years at the mothership. Hall of Famer. Tonight is the last night. This is it. Can you keep it together?

[Linda Cohn]

Dan, what's up? First of all is a great imitation. I, I love Chris Farley forever. That doc is a great doc and great imitation. Yeah, I'll keep it together. You know, it's not like nothing is ending and you know, ESPN is ending. As you know, Dan, I'm putting a nice bow on it and then moving on. You know, I gotta follow in your footsteps.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, I left after 18 years. You're there 34. How, how many times did you think about leaving?

[Linda Cohn]

You know, last year was kind of sad because, you know, for the last eight years, I've been in Los Angeles, left beautiful Bristol, and I'm back here now staying at the, you know, what kind of hotel, how close it is back in the day. I mean, it's just so crazy. That's the kind of memories that go up, come up to me. But last year, two mays ago, they closed down the LA studio for SportsCenter. It was sad because that crew was so great. Love working there. Neil Everett, Stan Verrett and everybody in production. And then, you know, that's when I started thinking about, okay, maybe, you know, the writing's on the wall here. Maybe I should listen to the universe and carve a new path. So that's when I started thinking about it. But it took me by surprise, so I didn't want to do anything. Suddenly, I wanted to do it on my timetable as well.

[Dan Patrick]

What do you remember about your first sports center?

[Linda Cohn]

Chris Myers. Trying to keep it together. I mean, you've done a million shows with Chris. I mean, the great, you know, you, you're no good. One of his catch races, but that's who I remember most. He just made me feel so at ease. And full disclosure, so did you, Dan. I mean, when I was still in Seattle, the great Gary Miller got you on the phone with me. We had a great talk. You really were a straight shooter. You really let me know, hey, a lot of the women before you didn't really do great. Probably just Robin, you know, type of thing, but it really helped me. So the first sports center with Chris, he welcomed me, and I just didn't want to screw up, you know, I just wanted to stay in my lane, not upset the apple cart, do as I'm told, and just, you know, try not to stumble.

[Dan Patrick]

But I was a little nervous, and I, I. And I was honest with you because I wanted you to know what you were walking into. And, like, you really, really, really have to know your stuff, and you prove that. But it's not like a local sports caster, right? This is. You got to know the Brewer's bullpen, and you got to know what the Vezina Trophy is like, all of these things. I just wanted you to know you're coming in here and they're going to be watching and they're going to be listening, and it will be tougher for you than it would be for a guy. But, you know, once you got in and we realized, once we realized that you were more proficient with hockey names, we're like, okay, you're. You're going to survive. You were you. And you, you carried that torch. You planted that flag a long, long time ago. You truly, you and Butcher Grass fought for the NHL as much as anybody has. And, you know, good for you for doing that.

[Linda Cohn]

Yeah, and, and thanks for those nice words, Dan. And yeah, that did mean a lot because you're honest and that's how you are. You're genuine. And, you know, I've always adored you. I always tried to, like, look up to you because the Way you did Sports center, of course, now, you know, doing this amazing, successful Dan Patrick show that you've done for a few decades already. But when you did SportsCenter, you just talked to people. You weren't shouting, you really weren't. You were connected. And to me, that's what it was all about. As, you know, like I always use this term, but it's not overused for me because it's the truth. I'm a fan first, and I wanted to make sure that I could connect to those viewers and let them know not only that I knew my stuff, but I was one of them. I had passion for my teams, that I love doing sports, that if I wasn't on SportsCenter, I'd be watching SportsCenter, I'd be watching anchors like you.

[Dan Patrick]

Dan, the changes in the media, where. Where are we headed, do you think, with this?

[Linda Cohn]

Yeah. I mean, isn't it great we're not breaking in now?

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, yeah. I mean, we were so fortunate that you didn't have social media. You might know the result, but you had to tune in to see the result. So that was, you know, a natural feeding process for us on SportsCenter. Certainly the 11 o', clock, because you're tuning in because you don't know exactly how your team won or lost.

[Linda Cohn]

Was there anything more exciting than following a live game or something amazing that happened in sports? And you're coming on SportsCenter and you know, those viewers can't look anywhere else, find it anywhere else for the most part. Back in the day, in the golden era, and they were watching you and I, you and I equate this all the time, you know, we're not athletes. But if ever I came professional, by the way, if ever I came close to that feeling in a big stage, big game, that adrenaline rush. I don't know about you, Dan, but, man, I did my best highlight reads when I knew everyone was watching, especially back then and following a live event and. Yeah, I mean, where is it going now? It's just different. And, you know, kudos to espn. They adjusted along the way. You know, some great moves, some not so great, but it's a crowded playing field now. We were the only game in town and we were very fortunate and I'm grateful every day to play a part in that.

[Dan Patrick]

Talking to Linda Cohn tonight is her last night at the mothership after 34 years. I want to expound upon something that I said to Rich Eisen during The that was SportsCenter interview that he did with me a Couple of weeks ago when Keith Olbermann left. And I know there were a lot of people in the building who wanted that job. And I didn't make any request. I didn't do anything. I said to Steve Bornstein, you pick who you want to see every night. Because I didn't want that on me.

[Linda Cohn]

Yeah.

[Dan Patrick]

And, you know, the more I thought about it, I had suggested you because I thought that first, you could do it. Second of all, it was different than, you know, with Keith and I. And it didn't go over immediately like I. They said, well, who are you thinking? And I thought, Rich. I knew Stuart didn't want to do it, and I knew you. And I just remember I didn't know they were going to pick Kenny Maine. I had no impact because I didn't know if Kenny wanted to do something like that. Kenny's more of a send him out on the road and let him do features where, you know, the 11 o', clock, it's live and it is. I mean, it's tense and. And you got to be, you know, know all the sports and all that. I didn't know if that was what Kenny wanted to do, and that's why I had suggested you. So it. I brought it up to Rich. I didn't want it to be one of those throwaways. I wanted to at least explain that to you, that I thought you, you were probably going to be the ideal deal person for a variety of reasons.

[Linda Cohn]

Well, I appreciate that. I did not know that until you made that comment to Rich on that. This was SportsCenter and I was on that. And Rich did such a great job with those episodes so far. I love that. Dan, you know me. I wasn't the type to go knocking on doors. I wasn't going in anyone's office. I didn't even know where they were located. I don't even know if they'd let me in at this point to, you know, campaign for myself like many of our colleagues did and have done. So I had no idea. I would have loved it. I know I could have handled it, as you had mentioned, but, you know, Kenny is Kenny. One of my. Some of my favorite sports centers are with Kenny Maine. I just couldn't keep it together. He always made me laugh. I couldn't even look at him. I looked at him. He didn't have to say anything. I'd be cracking up at his face.

[Dan Patrick]

And I tell people how competitive it was back then, you know, politics competitive. I mean, it was like there was a lot of talent in that room, in that newsroom, there was a lot of talent and there was backstabbing. There was, you know, playing favorites. Go to management. I mean, who. I'm glad I survived.

[Linda Cohn]

Yeah.

[Dan Patrick]

I don't know how you felt.

[Linda Cohn]

Yeah, no, absolutely. You know why? I tried to not get involved in it. I didn't want to get into the weeds, into the minutiae of what you just said. A lot of everything, a lot was toxic. But I tried to side with the laughter and the people that were grateful and just happy to be there. And we were having fun. And you know that Dan, you and Keith and the whole gang, Torico, Myers, you know, all the old people that I keep leaving out of so many people because I've worked with about a, you know, you think I've done a 6,000 sports centers. I think I've worked with 6,000 different acres on sports center. I can't even keep track. They're coming out of the woodwork, which is wonderful. But yeah, I mean, I just try to stay away from it because let's face it, Dan, we had more laughs than we didn't. And I felt, as I look back, that's what matters. And you know, I've been saying this a lot and it really touches my heart when you say, how am I going to feel tonight? I think what has resonated with me the most so far is all these incredibly talented young women who have reached out to me to say that they never would be doing what they're doing or have the self esteem or the courage to do it if they weren't watching me before getting on the school bus in the morning when they're in kindergarten, first grade, second grade, and realize that anything was possible. And Dan, for obvious reasons, professionally, I don't mind if that's my only legacy.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, it's a hell of a legacy. I think we met in New York City when I was at CNN.

[Linda Cohn]

Yeah.

[Dan Patrick]

And you came in. Bill McPhail, my boss, said, there's a woman coming in from Seattle. Yeah, her name is. Her name is Linda. And I was there with Artie Burko, my producer. And he said, she's going to shadow you. And I remember you came in and Artie and I were like, there's not a whole lot to watch here. All we do is, you know, think about the next story we're going to do. But I think that's the first time I met you was probably 1985, somewhere around there.

[Linda Cohn]

Yeah. Actually later. Because if I was coming from Seattle and I was still in Seattle. Then it would have been somewhere around 89. 99.

[Dan Patrick]

No, because I went to the mothership at 89.

[Linda Cohn]

Okay, so it must have been early 89, because I. I. Or around. I went to Seattle late 89. I went to Seattle late 89, October of 89, and left in early 92 to go to ESPN in July. So, anyway, the point of the story is. Yeah. Are you kidding? I was close to royalty. Dan, you were at cnn. I mean, I was like, I gotta, you know, I gotta, you know, have it soak into me. Maybe that was the difference. Maybe it started then, but. No, seriously, Dan. That was funny. Artie. A piece of work, too. I do remember that whole scene, though.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Congratulations. I mean, this is about survival, perseverance, but it's about talent. It's about stepping up in the moment. And you certainly did all of those things, and I'm proud to know you and have fun tonight.

[Linda Cohn]

Yeah, I appreciate that. You know, like I said, I'm not sad. I'm excited for what's next. And I'm going to try to stay present and be in the moment. You know, people in our business always have hard time doing that. We're always looking to the next. But in this case, I'm going to pause and I am going to smile, and I'm going to be grateful. So I'm grateful to you, Dan, for everything you did to welcome me and having me on today. Thank you so much.

[Caller or Guest]

Thank you.

[Dan Patrick]

All right. Linda Cohn, hall of Famer. Last official day night at espn. I don't think they're gonna escort her out like they do. Like, Rich Eisen now. They escorted him out. I mean, they may escort her out in a nice way. With Rich, it was like, come here. Because he had, like, two days left on his contract. I don't know what they think we were going to do. Like we were gonna steal secrets or something. I'd already packed up all my junk, like, you know, so. And Elko doesn't have any of her stuff there anymore. Yes, Marvin, When I was at the

[Marvin]

Mothership, it's always so awkward watching somebody get escorted out. Like, oh, man, it's nice.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Marvin]

Have a good life.

[Dan Patrick]

It's like the Green Mile. Yes.

[Paulie]

Paulie, one thing I remember about your final day at espn, you drove home. We were starting to get things organized for the new version of the show, and you pulled up in your Prius, and I came over the house a couple hours later, and you popped the trunk, and there must have been 125 neckties in the back of your trunk.

[Dan Patrick]

Yes, yes. It's like they were rabbits and they multiplied. My ties were multiplying in my back seat of my Prius. Harvey in Tallahassee. Hi, Harvey. What do you have for me?

[Caller or Guest]

Hey, listen, I have a favorite highlight and this ties in with Linda Cohen's interview just now. I've been on before, about three months ago, the Way Back Machine guy. But there's a highlight from you and Overman and it's. It's a highlight. This would have been the 11 o' clock edition of SportsCenter. It's a poorly lit stadium and some receiver in a college game or something. It just made a miracle catch. And it's kind of in the shadows. And you, Overman, and you begin singing Cat Stevens Moon Shadows as the highlight went on.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, thank you, Harvey. The older I get, the better I was, put it that way. Rich in Atlanta. Hi, Rich.

[Caller or Guest]

63200. I was just going back to Alan Hunter's interview and without a doubt, Dad,

that, but he said the Grateful Dead is a religion. I mean, that says it right there. They're great. It's a religion.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay. I mean, is it great music though, Rich? Yeah, that's totally great music that Jerry

[Caller or Guest]

Garcia's played with all the greats and all the greats will tell you he's one of the greatest guitar players ever.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, there's a lot of great guitar players. I'm just saying it's an event. Grateful Dead is an event. It's just not my kind of music. I listened to it, I tried it. It's okay. You probably don't like some of the artists that I like, and that's okay. It just. This is fun for Dylan and myself, going back and forth. That's all it is. Michael in South Carolina. Hi, Mike. What do you have for me?

at Topgolf Last call for phone calls what we learned what's in store for Monday? Who had the best week in sports and I've been talking about it for a while. I can't have a World cup without giving you Soccer breakdown. This is when I was at the mothership and Gary Miller was recording a soccer breakdown and he was in the voiceover booth and at one point you'll hear him say, get out of here. And that's me going in there because we were upstairs listening to it and we were laughing. There were some tough names for Gary, but he's been a good sport. Here is Gary Miller.

[Gary Miller]

Soccer Breakdown soccer breakdown in 3, 21 FIFA soccer's governing body. 3, 21 FIFA soccer's 3, 21 the red card has become the calling card for this year's tournament. Seven ejections for 3, 2 1. Witness Romania's Ian Bladyu against the Swiss is Orch through 3, 2 1. Cameroons Riggleburg Bananyag. 3, 2, 1. Cameroon's Rigelburg Bayang Zang Za Da Da Bayangyang Song. 3, 2, 1. Cameron's Rigelberg Banyangzong. Bayan young song. 3, 2, 1, 2. Get out of here.

[Guest or Analyst]

[Gary Miller]

Is guilt through 2? How long is this tape? 3, 2, 1, 1, 1. Cameroon's Rigelburg Banyang Song providing a breakaway from Brazil's Babetto. God almighty, I hate soccer. Cameroon's Rigelberg Banyan Young Song. I better try that one last time. 2, 1. Cameroon's Rigelburg Bunyan Young Song.

[Caller or Guest]

Oh, I hate this.

[Gary Miller]

Chalk up Bolivia's Luis Cristaldo for both on 3, 2, 1. But the most notable red card of the tournament came when Italian goaltender John Luca Pauluca. Paul Yoka Paul Yucca the Mother. Three, two, one. But the flurry of red cards thus far has taught coaches and players alike to control their play if they'd like to control their fate in this tournament.

[Dylan]

Holy.

[Gary Miller]

That is all.

[Dan Patrick]

It gets better and better and better. My favorite is FIFA governing Barty. Like right off the bat, you're behind. You're behind the eight ball.

[Paulie]

Yeah, Paulie, Every time I hear it, I hear something different. You couldn't script this. If you wanted to make a bet, you couldn't script that.

[Dan Patrick]

No. But then I'm upstairs in the newsroom, I come down, and that's when he yells at me, get out of here. Like, fun, fun stuff. Who had the best week in sports? Todd, you got a nominee for me?

[Todd]

She was on the TV every morning before I got on the bus to go to school. And everything she said to you about just trying to connect and trying to emulate the way that you could connect with the. With the fan. Like, I didn't.

I was six years old.

So I don't know anything about how hard it is for women or not. And I just. I just loved it.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, you know, she. She was professional. She could handle it. Sense of humor, get serious. She knew her sports, and it's a tough job. It's a tough job that you want to make look easy. Ryan in Nashville. Hi, Ryan.
