Over promised and a live broadcast Friday, circa Vegas, June 20th. Hope to see you there. But first, we be rocking out. I mean, I think you're downplaying it. Huge pool party, drinks flowing, butt cheeks out. Oh, yeah, Sam, put your butt cheeks back in. No cannonball. Swishy, splashy. Yeah. So hope to see you in Vegas. Maybe not there, maybe at night, but we'll be there. Circa June 20th, 21st, 22nd. Are we gonna play a game called find the tattoo where Danny gets down to just his tighty whities? Yeah. And you. All right, find the Raiders one. We have 10 seconds. You have 10 seconds to find it for a prize. Yeah, but again, we're playing last one standing this hour for a prize. And we got to talk when players are miked up. How do you feel about it during the game? Because, man, I. I've been saying for a long time that I'm not a fan of it, but I'll explain why. Right now we're wrapping up your phone calls. When someone calls you big hoss or big dog or big guy or chief Rocca or a. I remember my dad. Someone called my dad OG One time. He know what that meant? Like I OG Is he saying I'm an old guy? Oh, gee. Stand for old guy. Like, nah, man, you're original gangster. You know, when someone Comes at you with this weird sort of name, nickname. How do you feel about it? It depends, because I get. I get offended a little bit. Not where I'm going to fight somebody or cry about it, but it rubs me the wrong way sometimes because as Dan Beyer nailed it before, you want to be addressed in an equal sort of playing field, like, hey, bro, what's going on, buddy? If whatever it is, you feel comfortable addressing somebody, that's how you want to be addressed. Yeah, I think big dog, big guy, Danny T. We were talking off the air. You remembered one of your big guy stories, right? Oh, Covina was there. We were at the. The lobby of our super bowl hotel, and we were by the bar, and this waiter was walking by with a tray, and he looked right at me, and he's like, excuse me, big guy. I remember Clavino laughing, because the way he said it, he put a lot of emphasis on the big guy. And I'm like, geez, was I in his entire path that gained some weight? No one told me. But then again, I said I wasn't necessarily offended when the Chipotle guy the other day must have said, Boss 10 times. Everything. Brown or white rice, boss? Oh, brown rice. I don't like that. What type of protein there, boss? Put some respect on my name. And I'm thinking the whole time is. Does he realize that every customer, this guy must drop a thousand bosses a day? Yeah. Again, when I say offended, I don't mean, like, the way people are offended all the time in today's world. I'm just saying rubs the. The sphincter in a bit. In a weird way. I'm like, huh. I don't know if I like that, Mike. In Alaska, we'll take a couple quickies and we'll get to some. We'll get back to some baseball. What's up, Mike? Yeah. So you get into a restaurant, really energetic, you know, kind of wait or whatever, and he looks right at you and goes, well, hey, my friend. And then when they're all done, the orders come out and everything like that. They give you, you. You the man. You the man. I hear that. You the man, man, my friend. That's kind. A lot of foreigners use that. Hello, my friend. Hello, my friend. And I'm okay with that sometimes. But again, I guess everyone has their pet peeve when Jim Nance calls you friends. Hello, friends. Mark in Syracuse. What's up, Mark? Hey, what's up, my dudes? My dude. What's up, man? Yeah, I'm cool with that. My Dudes, I'm cool, too. I'm cool with it. I got two observations, but as I was hot and cold, I ran into the convenience store and the guy called me boss and sir during the same transaction. So, anyway, first one is, as I was telling Danny, I've been told that that's. Those terms are another way to say, hey, hole. And the other observation is, I don't know if you've seen Bad Santa, but remember what the little kids asking him what the hell's names were? He's like, I don't know. I call him Bub or Chief or whatever, you know? Yeah, it's like a whatever. It's like a whatever, Bub. Way to address. Yeah, they're replacement words. Trip in Vegas, who we're gonna see next Friday. I know he'll be there. What's up, Trip? What's up, gentlemen? It's. I want to know one. Who is this Big Mike guy? I don't even know who that is. He runs a place. You might see him in Vegas. In fact, you will. But I just had an experience when I was back a couple of weeks ago to see my parents in South Carolina on a plane. So I'm. Because I'm in. I don't sit in row 37. Sorry, Covina. Yeah, no, I'm in ultra comfort right behind first class. And the guy says to me, I'm actually at the right seat. And he goes, hey, big guy. And I'm duck down, I have my earpods in, I can't hear. And I'm like, I'm with my wife. I'm like, yeah, but you're in my seat. And then the flight attendant stepped in and said, hey, we'll fix this. But I didn't say, hey, little guy. That's where I get mad. Can you say little guy or a big guy? That's even more. Hey, listen, no offense to the. Thank you. Triple size and assessment out of this. No offense to the Short Kings, as they call them out there. But if you bump into a Jose Altuve looking guy, can you be like, hey, little guy? Hey, Napoleon. Yeah, yeah. What's up, small fella? And by the way, yeah, I don't like big dog is weird. Big unit I'm okay with. Stop it. What? Randy Johnson fan? Yeah, yeah, sure. So let's talk about this mic'd up deal they got going on Major League Baseball. I got to explain. I'm not just saying this now because it's the Yankees. I've always said this. I find it to be like very Demanding of these professional athletes. It's very. I don't know if that's the word. Low expectations. Know what Kavin always says? Anytime there's a news story that breaks in a small town, Camino's first observation is like, well, I can't believe the composure of like the local police chief got on the microphone. It's like, that's what you do. People step up. Yeah, but like, there's a lot of professional pressure already on these athletes to deliver. High stakes. Every game's a big deal. Such a big deal. We come back every day analyzing everything. And you want this professional baseball player to be locked in, in the zone and then answer stupid questions from idiot broadcasters in the booth. That's a lot on national tv. Beat it. If I was the manager or coach of that team, I'd be like, no, interview someone else. My guy needs to concentrate and focus on the game. And I've always felt that way. And dude, I was hanging with my brother. Sorry, hold on. Kavino Popovich over here. Let me. Can I. It's. This is fun for the fans. It's not just fun. That's why we talk about it all the time. Yes, sports is fun, but don't act like there's not an immense amount of pressure to deliver. Don't act like that's not true, because it is. Yeah, it's a game and it's a kids game, but at the highest of levels with millions people watching, like, such a crime, baby B. Whatever, big hoss. Yeah, listen, post game, pregame halftime, in between quarters in the NBA, coach interviews, it's the least you could do. You're trying to get some insight. Not playing, you're trying to get insight. Fans want to be more involved. That's how the game is evolving and growing. I think this is to pull in the casual fan that likes this. I see the benefits. Not that I don't see the benefit of when a player is miked up, but if you care about that team, you care about that players like, yo, take the pressure off this guy. Let him concentrate on the, I don't know, the exit velocity of 110 mile per hour rocket coming at his face. You're telling me because Jazz Chisholm no was talking about to the end. You won't let me tell you. I told you, I was hanging out. My brother and me and him were sitting there. I'm like, I hate when they do this. And my brother's like, yeah, I hate it too, bro. And I'm like, cool. We confirm that this is weak. Let them play the game. Why do we gotta have these guys miked up in the middle of a good rivalry here? And a game that matters, every game matters. If it didn't, we wouldn't be talking about it all the time. And he's like, yo, one of these days there's gonna be a costly error. And they're like, yo, we can't do this anymore, man. I'm just waiting for the day it happens. Sure enough, Jazz Chisholm is miked up at third base, a position that he's not necessarily that comfortable with. It's not his position. He's just there because lemayhue's at second. Here's what happens. So the first question comes from a fan. What are your thoughts on what Hunter Dobbins said earlier about retiring rather than being in pinstripes? I think we're looking at one second. Damn it. Damn it. Spin throw. Spin throw is right. Difficult play. Difficult. We all get it. Yeah. His thoughts on Hunter Dobbins were really important in that moment. On the throw? Yeah. Good. I mean, for me. I mean, I love competitiveness. Give me a break. Poor guy gets a rocket hit at him. He has to do a spin, spin a roo, and then throw. And damn it, it goes. Do you think he would have made that play if he wasn't miked up? He might have, yeah. You know, you're not concentrating. It's almost even dangerous. He's there at third base. These guys are hitting rock. Yes. Because it's the big leagues. Let him concentrate. Guys are hitting monster shots into the outfield. You want this guy to be answering questions about his wife or about the clubhouse? Meanwhile, they're in the middle of an intense game with 55,000 people watching and millions at home. Like, that's a lot of added unnecessary pressure. I'd be like, yo, thanks, but no thanks. Guy in the booth. And I'm a broadcaster. Beat it. There's a time and place. That's not it. I think this is for the most casual weenie fan that just needs. Needs that added extra. Like, you know, who says they like this? My girlfriend's like, I like when they do this. I'm like, I don't. Because I care about the team. You don't? No. Yes. Listen, this gives some personality and. Okay, then why don't they. Why don't they mic up pictures? Why don't they mic up when it. You know, in big moments? Because it's distracting. They mic up NFL players. They just don't have conversations with Them and you. That's some of the greatest footage we see every year. You could have it mic'd up. But when you're doing a full on interview in the middle of the game, that's downtime. There is in baseball, dude. And so what do you do you want you call me FaceTime him in the middle. But it's too much. It's intrusive. It's like, yo man, let the guy play your thoughts. 877-99-FOX. You know that that error could have changed the whole outcome of the game. Could have set a bad tone. Every game matters and it's because some jabroni wants to know his thoughts. Hunter Dobbins. Screw Hunter Dobbins. Your favorite pizza toppings. Now go. You can call the broadcasters off. Remember how famously Rojas on the Dodger said, hang on a second, let me make this play. Yo, dude. But still, yeah, that, that provided for a fun moment. But what if it didn't go that way, right? Or what if it cost the game? What if something bad happens? What if, you know, what if, what if he had a line drive to the noggin? Then it's okay. I'm not a fan of it. I never was. Never. I got to make it very clear it's not just because of Jazz Chisholm. It's just I think these are high pressure game of the week, nationally televised moments. You want to know what Jazz Chisholm had for breakfast? His favorite actually. Like, give me a break. What do you think Jazz Chisholm had for breakfast? I don't care. There's a time and place. How about Cocoa Krispies? How about after the game? How about before the game? You got to have it when he's getting set there at the hot corner. No thanks. Don't pass on the interview. I mean you're just mad because your dude made an error. No, I'm not. And I saw, I said a million times, I've always felt this way. I always, I was asking too much of the players. You want to mic up people while they play, that's fine. You want to do a full on interview with them in the middle of the game, Beat it. You got nothing else to talk about. I thought one of the cooler moments I talk about in the booth I thought one of the cooler moments of a national game recently was I believe was Subway series met Yankees and they had Brandon Nimmo on the mic. They also did another one with Lindor and they talked to Lindor's wife. His wife surprised him with their Newborn at the game. She was standing there with the newborn dude. Yeah, it was a nice moment. Very forced, but an unnecessary. It could have did that anytime. I think it's distracting. There's plenty of time in between innings before and after the game. You're expecting so much from these guys. They're trying to play a game and you can downplay it all you want. People got money on the game. There's high stakes at the game. People's jobs are on the line. You know what I mean? Like Jazz Chisholms at third because he's competing for a spot at second. And you got him making errors because you want to know how he feels about. I mean, we're gonna. His favorite TV show. We're gonna, we're gonna talk in circles. So I'd rather just move on. Because your head's up your ass on this one. Because you think, you think I'm the only guy? Because you think, are you, are you not taking the temperature of people out there? You thinking. You think I'm the only guy that feels this way? We take it orally or what? How you taking these temperatures? 87799 on Fox. If you feel me at all, and you will when it's your goofy ass team that makes a costly error because some goofball in the booth wants to know what he had for dinner. We'll see what happens. Then Wes in Vegas hit us up and he goes, cavino. NASCAR drivers do interviews mid race. You're telling me a mic'd up baseball player who does nothing 90% of the time. Ready, get ready. Yes, that's what I'm saying. Well, you know who agrees with you? A guy that. Why don't you read all the comments that go against me? Go ahead, continue. Well, I'm going to read one for you, but now I won't. All right, I will. Our buddy comedian Michael yells like Kavino's right. Yo, that's what's up, Michael. Yo, yo, yo. See, I'm. I'm with Covino on this. I think that there's. I also think that there's a difference. So I think NASCAR usually does it in a caution situation. I don't think was there. Going down the back stretch at Daytona, they're checking in to see what's happening with Chase Elliott. I don't know. I don't remember that. But tnt, espn. I know TNT does the inside tracks thing where they will have someone miked and then they'll bring it back. That's different than doing an interview during a Game and stuff like that. And sometimes the content that they have on the inside track stuff is worthless. There was a game and I can't remember, maybe Sam remembers, we talked about a month or two ago that somebody mic'd up, they got into a fight with somebody on the court, and then when they did their inside tracks, all it was was like, good job, man, good job. Get back on D. Get back on D. They had no audio from the fight that occurred between that person or the argument and another person. So if you're trying to enhance the broadcast, you're doing it in that situation at the expense of actual wins and losses, which I think is wrong when you're usually trying to do it just to bring in more viewers. You know, when they do this or when they started doing this was usually special event, like an All Star game or something like that. That was my first thought of like, man, I don't know how I feel about that. But at least it's like one special game. It's fun, it's for the fans. These are real games, dude. Real games that matter. They've expanded it to golf, but they'll do it between shots. Like when a player hits a tee shot, he'll have an earpiece in and he'll walk down the fairway and get questions more. More and more players are becoming warm to it, but not as you're lining up an eight foot putt, needing to save par. You're like, let's go to Jim Nance. You know, like, yeah, I mean, listen, I agree. You're not going to go to Edwin Diaz in a save situation facing Bryce Harper and be like, it's two, two. Okay, so Edwin Diaz, do you. You're more of a boob guy or butt guy. Like, I mean, you're not going to be. Okay, so some guy at the hot corner taking the again, exit velocities of 110 miles per hour plus. That's the time to be talking to the guy. Give me a break. How about when it. When the guy's roaming the outfield in an All Star game? Okay, I get it. Football players just miked up. Yo, my man. What's going on? You ready for the game today? Yeah, that's all fun and good for the role, but an interview during the game, now you're like overstepping. Stop overstepping, guys. How about you find something interesting to talk about? That's how I feel about it. That's my side. And it cost the Yankees in that moment. Your thoughts next. That 8, 7, 799 on Fox. And we're going to play last one standing, the game that's sweeping the nation. It's trivia for the coveted Swiggy, the stainless steel midnight black water bottle that everybody wants this summer. I still can't get over. I'm being serious. I still can't get over how you think it's so ultimately distracting. You're the gift of gab guy who talk. You. You'll talk to a stranger at a park bench like Forrest Gump. You'll talk to a wall. You'll talk to a statue outside the pigeons. You'll talk to anything. You think these professional baseball players who again, have contracts on the line and games to play for and jobs to win and millions watching, you think they want to be interviewed in that moment? No. No. You'll talk to anybody. Not everybody talks the way you talk. Get their personality out there. Make the game more accessible, more fun for the fans hearing from their favorite players. It's so. Because you'll talk to anybody. You don't want to hear Aaron Judge in the middle, like the third inning. No, I want him to concentrate on the game. You don't want to hear From Bobby Witt Jr. Talking about what's doing. No, again, I want him to concentrate on the game. I want him to win. If you're really rooting for the guy, you don't want to distract him while he's playing a professional game. All right. So distracting. All right. Hey, the number 87799 on Fox. Let me say that again in case you're distracted. 87799 on Fox has no, no concept of this because he never stops talking, ever. So, of course it's no big deal to him. You act like this is a natural thing for everybody. All right, well, then you could tell everyone all about Express Pros by yourself.

I'll then be joined in conversation by guests such as western historical historian Dr. Randall Williams and best selling author and Meat Eater founder Stephen Rinella. I'll correct my kids now and then. They'll say when cave people were here and I'll say it seems like the Ice Age people that were here didn't have a real affinity for caves.

So again, Jazz Chisholm was miked up, but it's not even just miked up. He was being interviewed. There's a difference. Being interviewed during a nationally televised game. They asked him about Hunter Dobbins. Just for reference. Hunter Dobbins said that if the Yankees were the last team, he'd retire before he ever played for them. And he's a rookie. Those are some fighting words for a rookie guy. But he grew up, you know, hating the Yankees. For those that don't know, Hunter Dobbins, pitcher of the Red Sox. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So they were asking Jazz Chisholm about it mid play, and he makes a really dope play, spin throw, and then throws it away. Makes an error during the interview. And I knew it was bound to happen one day. I'm like, I hate when they interview these players. Your thoughts? Big Bird in Georgia. What's up, man? Hey there, guys. Thank you for having me on, man. I. I thought I got onto the radio a little late. Definitely some old school odd couple vibes. Latino Rob Parker there, Covino. But I'm with you, man. I'm with you, man. Hey, you know, would you want your surgeon cutting in you while people are asking him what you doing? What's going on? Hey, think about this, Rich. Do you turn down the radio when you're driving to find somewhere just because you're distracted? The only Big Bird. The only. Oh, because you made one good point. I hate when people interrupt my barber when he's cutting my hair, let alone surgeon. I'm like, yo, how about you have your little conversation later? The dude is cutting my hair. Phone, plane. Yeah. Do you remember the I would. Someone tried to sell my barber a phone plan. While I was getting a haircut, so. All right, I get that, but these guys are pros. Corey, North Carolina, what's up, man? Yeah, I'm just calling in because I wanted to give a personal, you know, explanation to it. So. There was one time when I was playing high school baseball. Never played third in my life. Randomly got put in because there was an injury. The very first ball that got hit to me was a screamer down the third baseline. It hit where the dirt and the grass meets. Pops me up and hits me in the eye. Full concentration, and I still couldn't make that play. Yeah. No, I do not want anybody interviewing me or any of my teams in the middle of the game. Doug, you're on in Ohio. What's up, Doug? Never learned anything of any relevance from being miked up. Listen to these guys and. And you can just tell how uncomfortable they are. You know, their comfort zone is their major league sport. They're playing. That's why they're professionals and guys. Which brings me to a topic. You ever found a pro athlete, retired, who becomes a good actor? I always think, man, they play in front of thousands of people on these big stages, and then they get in front of a camera, and they just seem so stiff. Yeah, you're right. Even wrestlers. Bautista's all right. Dwayne the Rock Johnson's all right. I mean, Bautista, yeah, he's actually one of the better ones, but it's few and far between. The more I think about it, I think people like you and all our callers just can't handle the pressure. I think I would be okay being miked up in the bedroom. We don't want to hear that. That's true. It's been done before. Imagine if they miked you guys up at your job. Eddie in Indiana. What's up, man? Wrap this up. Hey, man, can you hear me? Yeah, we can hear you. What's up, chief? Hey, man. Yeah, I'm with you on this one, man. Listen, the worst one, the worst ones are the NBA coaches or these college coaches. Like during March Madness, they had one incoming. They pull the coach. He's got three minutes on timeout. He's down 10 points trying to win the game and survive in the March Madness tournament. They pull the coach off and go, Coach, you're down 10 points. What are you going to do? The dude's got 20 minutes to get these kids under control, man. And they're pulling up for a stupid TV interview. Let the guy coach. Just let him coach. But then again, time and place, maybe people aren't the level of coach I am. Danny G. You know the best 5 u t ball coach maybe.325 winning percentage. Maybe they should mic me up during the T ball tournament this weekend. Again, coming from the guy who never shuts up, it's a big difference. And by the way, where all those people that agree with you, you and Danny hung up on me. You know what? Yeah, let's do this. Let's go to Dan by for an update and let's get a contestant right now if you want to play. Last one standing swiggy with all the swaggy. It's a lot of fun. So if you want to play again. 87799 on Fox what's up? DB Aaron Rodgers introduced as the Steelers quarterback today, meeting with the the media after his mandatory minicamp practice session. Rogers saying he made the decision to sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers from his soul and also revealed that he's been married for the last couple of months. Kirk Cousins spoke today at Falcons mandatory minicamp as he showed up to practice despite being unhappy this offseason and being the backup to Michael Penix Jr. This was cousins earlier today. I think when the season ended last year I started getting into working on my body and having the time to do that felt like I thought I was much better than I was. And I think you learn that as you improve, as you make improvements, you realize, oh, I, I thought I was already back and I'm still, you know, making a lot of improvements here. So that kind of then tells you that, hey, on a 1 to 10, I, I thought I was at an 8 and I was really back at a, at a 3 or 4 and now I'm getting back to that, you know, 6, 7 and 8. And so you start to kind of realize that you weren't quite as far along as you thought. Cousins says he's not going to pout. He's going to serve as the backup to Pennock's as long as he is in Atlanta. Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin a no show at minicamp today, as was Steelers linebacker T.J. watton. Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson. Micah Parsons of the Cowboys showed up, didn't do anything while Bill's running back James Cook same thing in Buffalo. Denver Broncos on free agent running back J.K. dobbins to a one year deal worth just north of $5 million, according to the NFL Network. Colorado at football coach Deion Sanders has been away from the program, according as he deals with an illness. Indiana fever without Caitlin Clark Tonight against The Atlanta Dream. US Open starts Thursday. World number one Scotty Scheffler tees at 1:25 Eastern. Rory McElroy will be off in the first round at Oakmont at 7:40 Eastern Time Thursday morning. Craig Kimbrell signing a deal with the Texas Rangers. Guys, back to you. Thank you, D.B. by the way, if I'm Kirk Cousins, that's like a, that's a hard pill to swallow. Like you're a backup now, right? Like, is that, do you think you'd be able to handle that or no? Yeah, I think it, you know, happened real fast for him. He's still what, only 36? 35, 36. So fast. A couple years ago he signed a huge deal and then it's like, psych. But here's what we're going to do. Coming up, we got a contestant. We're going to push last one standing to a few minutes from now. We got contestants roll and getting ready to go. It's my favorite game. It's a great game. You could win a Swiggy.

The American west with Dan Flores is the latest show from the Meat Eater Podcast Network. Hosted by me, writer and historian Dan Flores and brought to you by Velvet Buck. This podcast looks at a West available nowhere else. Each episode I'll be diving into some of the lesser known histories of the West. I'll then be joined in conversation by guests such as Western historian Dr. Randall Williams and best selling Author and meat eater founder Stephen Rinella. I'll correct my kids now and then where they'll say, when cave people were here. And I'll say, it seems like the Ice Age people that were here didn't have a real affinity for caves. So join me starting Tuesday, May 6, where we'll delve into stories of the west and come to understand how it helps inform the ways in which we experience the region today.

There was a report that said it was via overtime. Former New Orleans Saint running back Mark Ingram shared that Jameis Winston once gave a speech that started with a prayer and ended with him singing the Monday Night Football theme song. So started with the prayer and ended with him singing the theme song. Which one? Are you ready for some football? I mean, that's Hank Williams Jr. I'm guessing that. Which is hilarious. A Monday night party. So it got us thinking based on that. I mean, first of all, what a colorful guy. So funny. His personality is great. But it got us thinking of the worst speeches of all time. And for me, there's. There's one outside of sports that comes to mind immediately. It's from the world of entertainment and movies. Should I just say it now? Oh, Spot. My best man speech. Well, that's another one. You want to tell that story, go ahead. No, I know the one you're thinking of. Spot just mean mugged you, man. I know the one you're thinking of. It's. Obviously there's a movie one. Yeah. Because I. I would feel it would be the greatest example. Steve Buscemi in the Wedding Singer. Oh, best. Best. Bad speech. Better man. Best man. Better man. I think when he's drunk, it just is such a funny moment that we all remember that we've all seen a million times. Cindy and Scott were getting married. Called hookers. I guess I don't remember paying. And you know what? We'll discuss it tomorrow. Consider it a homework assignment. Your worst speech memories. Maybe you choked during a best man speech. Maybe it was in a you googly gone wrong. I want to hear about the worst speech moments based on this. Did you say you googly? Yeah. You probably thought I didn't even know what a you googly was. So the worst speeches you ever heard. We'll talk about that tomorrow. Plus you know what else we'll do? Last one, not last one. Standing. What's tomorrow? Midweek major. That's what I meant. Midweek major. We do it every Wednesday. The biggest stories in the world of sports and pop culture. We'll do it tomorrow on the show. You totally would be distracted if you were mic'd up during a game. Game? Yeah, I mean, multitasking during high pressure situations, not easy. All right, well, have a great night. No NBA tonight? No NHL tonight. Right. So you know, you could homework assignment as well on Apple tv. If you're not, you don't even need to be a golfing fan. Stick with Owen Wilson.
