we got a fantastic episode ready for you guys we're going to uh start off on a summer note with the chiefs first loss of the season then we're going to get into a much more uplifting note with the eagles taking down the commies who doesn't like to take down commies i think commies as well as the rest of the biggest storylines from across the nfl in week 11 but uh before we get started we're going to start with a little bit of that new news
00:03:04 Speaker_00
And this new news is something that Wyatt is going to be happy to find out what is brought to you by Moana too. That's right. Moana is coming to theaters. November 27th. I can't exciting. Moana is fantastic.
00:03:20 Speaker_00
One of the things I really like about Moana is that it's like, I don't know. It feels like in a world where a lot of these stories just kind of get like remade. Moana was an original, I think the lead character is a powerful female that I really like.
00:03:37 Speaker_00
The music's great. The Rock kills it. Maui is a fantastic character, but there's also not like the bad guy ends up being the same as the good guy in the movie.
00:03:47 Speaker_00
I don't know what Moana 2 is about, but the first one was about really just like being good to the land and mother nature fighting back against, you know, really monocultures of coconuts, I think. Um, anyways, uh, Yeah, Moana 2 coming November 27th.
00:04:06 Speaker_00
Can't wait to see what this one's about. And if Te Fiti is, uh, back to, um, needs the heart. What was it? What was it? What was it missing again? The heart, something heart. The heart of Te Fiti.
00:04:19 Speaker_02
Nice. Yeah. Be good to the land.
00:04:22 Speaker_00
Anyways, Mama Kelsey, new news. Mama Kelsey acting debut. Oh, that's right. Mama Donna. Mama Kelsey is going to make her acting debut next Saturday. That's right. Next Saturday, November 30th. What?
00:04:35 Speaker_00
In Holiday Touchdown, a Chiefs love story on the Hallmark Channel. Got to admit, I have not seen a lot of Hallmark movies. I'm excited to watch this one.
00:04:42 Speaker_02
Mama Kelsey's, um, she owns a barbecue joint.
00:04:45 Speaker_00
That's right. She's a manager of a barbecue restaurant. Yeah. Mom can cook a lot of things. I don't think she's ever made barbecue.
00:04:52 Speaker_02
She's never made barbecue for us.
00:04:54 Speaker_00
No, I mean, like not even like barbecue sauce. I don't remember that being like a thing that mom would do. That was dad's deal.
00:05:00 Speaker_02
Dad was like, yeah, leave the barbecue to me. I'll make the sauce at home. You know, I think it's good enough to sell. I think he wanted that.
00:05:10 Speaker_00
You remember that dad wanted to sell his own barbecue sauce and mom was like, Ed, we can't mortgage our entire financial savings because you want to sell your barbecue sauce. That barbecue sauce was really good though. It was fucking great.
00:05:22 Speaker_00
I've had it again. It doesn't taste. I don't know if dad didn't write down the recipe, right? I feel like, you know, sometimes when you're finagling stuff, just off the fly, off the cuff, you nail it.
00:05:33 Speaker_02
It's good.
00:05:34 Speaker_00
I also like he, we tried to recreate it. We tried to recreate it and he gave me the list and I expected it to be like, he gave me this barbecue sauce recipe and I was going to try and make it when it was like 4th of July or something like that.
00:05:52 Speaker_00
And I was expecting it to be like, Oh, you got like these spices, these herbs. like brown sugar, brown sugar. This thing is nothing but other sauces and other condiments combined to make one. I'm like, you can't have any of this all.
00:06:10 Speaker_02
You just went to the sweet baby rays mixed with fucking. Dude, he just went to the... Hey, man, this shit is good as hell.
00:06:19 Speaker_00
No wonder. He went to the Fountain Coke machine at McDonald's and just mixed a bunch of them together.
00:06:23 Speaker_03
I got my own sauce.
00:06:26 Speaker_02
I'm not gonna lie. Shit. That's how you got fucking vanilla Coke. That's how you got fucking... You know what I mean?
00:06:31 Speaker_00
That's how you got... It was good. And Dad was on to something. He figured it out. He figured it out, man. Big Ed's barbecue sauce could have been a thing, maybe.
00:06:39 Speaker_02
Yeah. And the word around town was, you know, Big Ed could fucking make some wings, man.
00:06:45 Speaker_00
He could make wings. Everybody loved those wings.
00:06:47 Speaker_02
Everybody. The original Kelsey makes.
00:06:49 Speaker_00
Yeah, check out November 27th. As we said, mom's first acting debut is hitting the big screens. Well, TV screens. I think those go straight to TVs. I don't think that goes to the theater.
00:06:59 Speaker_02
Yeah, I think they go straight to streaming.
00:07:00 Speaker_00
But you can't see Moana, too, in theaters.
00:07:04 Speaker_02
All right now, Jason debuts Santa drives in the Astro van. That's right. Yeah, baby. How did it feel being up on stage? Big guy?
00:07:13 Speaker_00
Well, my voice was gone. I lost my voice.
00:07:16 Speaker_02
So we talked about this.
00:07:18 Speaker_00
Yeah, I was really nervous.
00:07:19 Speaker_02
Do our remedy.
00:07:20 Speaker_00
I tried. I think I had about You know, I probably had more honey than Winnie the Pooh throughout the whole evening. See, you went the honey route.
00:07:27 Speaker_02
You went the wrong route.
00:07:29 Speaker_00
I did tea and honey. It was both.
00:07:30 Speaker_02
See, you went tea. You can't. Jason, did you hear anything I said? You didn't fucking listen to anything I said, and you still had a raspy voice. You tried to go the fucking, you're so ridiculous.
00:07:43 Speaker_00
Between this and then trying to film something else, I could not see this one.
00:07:47 Speaker_02
Can we turn the sound off for a second while Jason's shaking his little shaker, little banana shaker? Oh yeah.
00:07:56 Speaker_00
Everybody mute your computer now.
00:07:58 Speaker_02
I love your facial expression. I'm so nervous right now. Sorry, sorry, I'm not sorry. You're like looking at everyone like, here it goes. Sorry for ruining the song, everybody. We'll get through this, though.
00:08:43 Speaker_02
We'll get through this together and enjoy the rest of this song.
00:08:53 Speaker_00
I could not sing. It was so bad.
00:08:55 Speaker_02
The honey did not help. You should have fucking just chugged some Jack Daniels before you walked up there.
00:09:01 Speaker_00
Everyone, I would encourage you to listen to the actual recording where I sound much better because my voice is not hoarse. But no, it was an awesome experience. It was really cool to be a part of. Mount Joy is phenomenal.
00:09:15 Speaker_00
The fact that they lent their time and energy to this effort was fantastic. Yeah, I don't know. The Eagles fans made it special. There was enough energy already because it was the biggest game of the year for the Philadelphia Eagles.
00:09:28 Speaker_00
So it was it was just an awesome evening of music and football.
00:09:33 Speaker_02
Does it feel weird? You've done this the past like three years. Does it feel weird doing a lot for Christmas, not in December?
00:09:41 Speaker_00
It does feel a little weird, but you kind of have to do the lead up to it. You have to stay ahead of it. But you know me, I've always loved Christmas. We've always loved Christmas.
00:09:50 Speaker_00
So, you know, and listen, the previous two albums, we've raised over four million dollars for God damn. 50 different charitable organizations because people have supported the album and bought it and appreciated it.
00:10:04 Speaker_00
So it makes it a lot easier to do when you know that it's going to make a huge impact in your community.
00:10:10 Speaker_02
Santa drives an Astro van, ladies and gentlemen, live at the link. The third and final record in the Philadelphia Special Christmas Trilogy is out now. So make sure you guys go and check that out.
00:10:23 Speaker_00
Please support. We've had a lot of support in the past, and we're trying to do it even bigger this year. We have aspirations to do a lot of amazing things for the community.
00:10:32 Speaker_00
You know, the only reason we're able to do any of that is because people support the album and it's turned into this wonderful Philadelphia thing that I think just is fun. We have a Operation Snowball we're trying to execute on this year.
00:10:44 Speaker_00
I haven't even told anybody about this yet. I don't even know if I'm allowed to share this, but our goal this year, Operation Snowball is a citywide special initiative to try and get a gift to every kid in the Philly public schools.
00:10:59 Speaker_00
So we're partnering with the Philadelphia public school system as well as some other organizations in the city and people in the private sector to try and get gifts to every single school for the kids throughout Philadelphia, which is a lot of kids.
00:11:13 Speaker_00
And the only reason we're able to do that is because the city supports it. People buy the album, they listen to the album.
00:11:23 Speaker_00
But more importantly, and I really felt this from the moment I got to Philadelphia, it's really just such a city entrenched with pride and joy for itself. Yeah. The sense of community and family is so strong.
00:11:35 Speaker_01
It is very strong.
00:11:37 Speaker_00
And, you know, I don't know. that it would be done anywhere else. But I think I think we're gonna be able to pull it off with how much, you know, the community is willing to support it. So we appreciate you guys.
00:11:49 Speaker_00
Really excited to, you know, bring some joy around the holidays to everyone out there. And yeah, thanks for supporting.
00:11:57 Speaker_02
Jason broke a world record. Hey, how about that? Last piece of new news here. Jason is now officially a world record holder. How about that, Jason? Guinness Book of World Records. You made it, kid.
00:12:10 Speaker_02
On Monday Night Countdown, Jason attempted to break two world records. The longest blindfolded catch of a football would not go well, did not go well at all. Was this inspired by the Son at AT&T Stadium. I don't know.
00:12:26 Speaker_00
So all of the peaking through the glass. I think it was just dude, perfect kind of set up a lot of these games. And they were like, hey, you're not going to catch this ball, but it's going to look hilarious.
00:12:38 Speaker_03
So it's like, all right.
00:12:43 Speaker_00
So they actually pulled this off. They hold the world record, I think, for longest.
00:12:47 Speaker_02
Oh, right in the fucking clavicle.
00:12:49 Speaker_00
Right in the jugular.
00:12:52 Speaker_02
Oh, we got to keep our we got to keep our hands up.
00:12:55 Speaker_00
I felt like it was a lot closer than what it just looked like.
00:12:58 Speaker_02
No, that's I mean, how long did they say it was?
00:13:01 Speaker_00
It looks like a 30 40 yards. That one was over 40 yards. The longest hot dog was right around 60 yards.
00:13:08 Speaker_02
We have somebody threw a hot dog 60 yards. There's no from dude. Perfect. He can throw a hot dog 60.
00:13:14 Speaker_00
So he had a good little arm on him. And yeah, we got down when we had to switch sides. The hot dog would make it down there.
00:13:20 Speaker_02
Give this guy a fucking scholarship and fuck motherfucking scholarship. Dude, this is this is goddamn good. The longest throwing catch of a hot dog into a bun. Nice. So he was just throwing naked wieners and you were catching them in the bun.
00:13:37 Speaker_00
In my bun. Oh, yeah, that's right.
00:13:40 Speaker_02
Were they toasted?
00:13:41 Speaker_00
In my buns.
00:13:42 Speaker_02
I know you're a big toasted bun guy.
00:13:43 Speaker_00
My buns were loose and lubricated and ready to receive that wiener. Perfect catch. I will say those hot dogs when you need it. Dude, those hot dogs at Jerry world are fucking ridiculous. They are the girth on those hot dogs.
00:14:00 Speaker_00
And then we did another one where he actually ate the hot dog.
00:14:03 Speaker_00
yeah i saw that filler it was disgusting it was a cold it was absolutely gross now you know exactly what i'm talking about that's every hot dog you just finally came to realization this one just had a consistency to it that was like you know hot dogs have like filler in it like it's not all meat the entire thing is filler but i think that one was so the condom it was too high quality of a hot dog i think i found out through that eating that hot dog that i like cheap hot dogs if it's too nice of a hot dog it's like
00:14:34 Speaker_00
It was a bad hot dog.
00:14:35 Speaker_02
It was a gourmet glizzy.
00:14:39 Speaker_00
It was thick. And like, as soon as I bit into it, I was like, what in the hell?
00:14:44 Speaker_02
Honestly, dude. a hot dog eating contest might be a nightmare. Like I think I've actually woken up in like a dead sweat out of a out of sleep one time because I was in like a hot dog eating contest against my will.
00:14:58 Speaker_00
nightmare.
00:14:59 Speaker_02
Dude, that I mean, just the smell. And just you're stuffing yourself until you have to vomit. And then I already have to vomit because of the texture.
00:15:11 Speaker_00
Have you ever had a mayonnaise eating contest nightmare?
00:15:15 Speaker_02
No, nobody would ever do that.
00:15:16 Speaker_00
Dude, that's the real thing.
00:15:17 Speaker_02
No, it's not.

Mayonnaise eating contest.
00:15:25 Speaker_02
I just got chills. I did have lunch, Jason.
00:15:28 Speaker_00
I don't want to do this. Dude, I've seen it. People have eaten like five jars and shit. Look at this.
00:15:35 Speaker_02
All right, that's all I had to see. I just wanted to see if it was real.
00:15:42 Speaker_03
I don't wanna watch it.
00:15:45 Speaker_00
I'm about to throw up too. Dude, what the fuck? God, that is so gross.

00:16:00 Speaker_03
I don't wanna watch it anymore. Dude. Get it off the screen.
00:16:04 Speaker_00
I don't even get queasy and this is disgusting. It looks like I'm kind of like tricking myself and thinking she's eating yogurt. I'm like in my head, I'm like, okay, it's actually vanilla pudding.
00:16:19 Speaker_00
That's the only way I can be comfortable is fooling myself.
00:16:22 Speaker_02
The texture is disgusting. Oh my gosh.
00:16:25 Speaker_00
That is so gross. Oh, get it out of here. I like that she just shook her head. Can we just fast forward to the end? How many, how many does she get through?
00:16:34 Speaker_02
Uh, it doesn't matter. That's just foul. Gosh, that's just she's going back. This is like fear factor, man. Too much sweating now.
00:16:49 Speaker_00
Gosh. Why is this so like, I watch hotdog eating contest all day and not get grossed out. This is like there's something just like so repulsive. Can I just point out that like you get it off the screen?

This is like nails on a chalkboard to me, dude. I can't look up and fucking. All right. I mean, I think we're fucking just housing fucking mayonnaise. This is disgusting.
00:17:18 Speaker_00
Five jars of mayonnaise in three minutes.
00:17:20 Speaker_02
What the fuck was that? That was a row. You just put me on a roller coaster, Brandon. I feel like I just fucking got tossed around the room and yeah, damn it.
00:17:29 Speaker_00
Maybe now you'll have a nightmare about that. Man, that's really gross.

Well, I'm going to be playing at one o'clock Eastern on Sunday. But Jason, who are you putting on your multi-view?
00:18:26 Speaker_00
Yeah, I mean, I've been to go Chiefs Panthers for obvious reasons. Probably go Lions Colts because I really like watching the Lions play. Former offensive coordinator Shane Steichen. Probably go Cowboys Commanders just because it's NFC East.

00:19:25 Speaker_00
They've always been big Moana fans. And more importantly, Moana's one of the ones that Kylie and I can watch. It's just really well done. The music is really good. It's a unique movie.
00:19:33 Speaker_00
I'm also happy that it's a newer movie that was unique and like, it embraces like culture. Man, they do a good job. over at Disney. But yeah, either way, I'm fired up about Moana 2. Very fired up.

00:20:25 Speaker_00
Some people just know they could save hundreds on car insurance by checking Allstate first.
00:20:31 Speaker_02
Just like you know to check if you packed your headphones before you get on the plane for an away game.
00:20:37 Speaker_00
Or like you know to check if you put gas in the car before you head out on a family road trip with three kids and two Irish Wolfhounds.
00:20:44 Speaker_02
Yeah and checking first is smart so check Allstate first for a quote that because save you hundreds, maybe even thousands. You're in good hands with Allstate.
00:20:56 Speaker_00
Savings vary. Terms apply. Allstate Fire and Casualty Insurance Company and affiliates, Northbrook, Illinois. All righty, bold topics to wrap up week 11 in the NFL. Chiefs recap. Let's get into it, Trav. Bills 30, Chiefs 21. Great game.
00:21:14 Speaker_00
It was a fun game to watch. Did not turn out the best for the Kansas City Chiefs.
00:21:18 Speaker_02
The Bills played a great four-quarter football game. Turnover early, got the ball at half. Possessions, didn't have a lot of them. They were doing a good job of, you know, keeping our offense off the field. putting together drives.
00:21:32 Speaker_02
I mean, keep having my homes off the off the football field, man.
00:21:36 Speaker_00
Absolutely. And it was impressive.
00:21:38 Speaker_02
I mean, yeah, they were converting third down something that I think we didn't do a great job of. They won their one on one matchups in a lot of different areas. And it wasn't just you know, in in terms of like the wide receiver DB one-on-one matches.
00:21:52 Speaker_02
I think it was all over the board and back to the drawing board for sure.
00:21:55 Speaker_02
I think it was a nice, I don't want to call it a wake-up call because we went into that game knowing that, you know, the Bills were one of the top teams in the football, in the NFL.
00:22:05 Speaker_02
Sometimes you just need a different perspective on things and watching this game back, you know, you kind of see a trend happening over the past like three to four weeks.
00:22:16 Speaker_02
Um, and, and you just got to fine tune things, get back to the basics, get back to the fundamentals.
00:22:22 Speaker_00
Yeah.
00:22:23 Speaker_02
And really just get back to, to going to work throughout the week. And, uh, and you know, I, I have all the confidence in the world.
00:22:29 Speaker_02
We'll, uh, we'll be better because of this game, but at the same time, you know, hats off to the bills for showing up, man.
00:22:35 Speaker_00
Yeah. I have a feeling this is not going to be the last game the Kansas City Chiefs and Bills play this season. And kudos to the Bills. They played great. Josh Allen played fantastic. Like we were saying, they sustained a lot of drives.
00:22:47 Speaker_00
And the Kansas City defense has been so good. And the defense didn't play bad. It was more like the Bills just made plays at the right time. Josh played great. This was two really good teams going up against each other.
00:23:01 Speaker_00
And the biggest play of the game, obviously, Pat is so good down the stretch with the ball in his hands, and he did it the drive right before Buffalo scores their last touchdown. You guys drive down and bring the game within two points.
00:23:14 Speaker_00
And McDermott and the Bills have a decision on fourth down with two yards to either punt it or try and retain possession. And the last thing I think anybody thought was that Josh Allen was going to scramble and score a touchdown on the play.
00:23:29 Speaker_00
But I mean, I think that aggression is what you have to do.
00:23:32 Speaker_02
You give me a B or C. I'm saying Josh Allen's doing something with his feet.
00:23:36 Speaker_00
Yeah, yeah, that's fair.
00:23:37 Speaker_02
Josh. I mean, they were on quarterback power. They were like, yeah, let's do it in Superman's hands. Yeah, you know, no doubt.
00:23:43 Speaker_00
And he executed it to perfection. That's what they had to do. I think that they knew if they would have given that ball back to Pat, it's out of our hands. And they decided to be aggressive and take control of it. And it paid off. Man, look at him.
00:23:55 Speaker_00
And Carlos just was so close. If you judge either way, it was an awesome game. You could see the intensity out there from both teams, because obviously you guys have played a lot of meaningful football games against each other.
00:24:10 Speaker_00
Let's get some postgame thoughts. Mahomes, you can use it as fuel. That's a good football team. So it's nothing to hang your head about. We feel like we can play better.
00:24:18 Speaker_00
So we'll get back to work and try to use it as a spark to be a better football team in the end. The undefeated thing was cool, but That's not our ultimate goal. I love this. And I think that this is all you can do.
00:24:29 Speaker_00
You take losses or you take things that you're not operating at the right level or where you want to be at and you try and become better from it. The Bills are a great football team. They are.
00:24:38 Speaker_00
They're one of the best football teams in the NFL this year, and they're going to be able to win any football game they're in, especially with the guy they got playing quarterback and the team they've assembled.
00:24:49 Speaker_00
You know, it's a, it's an experience that will ultimately make the Kansas City Chiefs better from moving forward. I really believe that.
00:24:58 Speaker_01
Yeah.
00:24:58 Speaker_00
Andy Reid on the undefeated talk going away, potentially being a relief for his team. He said, I don't really care about all that crap, which I mean, how much were you guys hearing of the undefeated stuff?
00:25:11 Speaker_00
Cause I feel like there's this narrative out there that that was potentially in your head. I find that hard to believe that you guys were even
00:25:18 Speaker_02
Like even thinking about that, you don't think about, oh, I really want to win this game so I can remain undefeated. No, we want to win this game because we we have a lot of really close football games against the Buffalo Bills.
00:25:29 Speaker_02
And we we love fucking competing against them because they're one of the best teams in the league. Like I get fired up playing against the best.
00:25:36 Speaker_02
Yeah, yeah, I get fired up playing against the best teams in the National Football League and I was fired up for this one and I didn't play my best and that shit that shit fucking like it pisses me off and it made me, you know, go right back into work on Monday after the game and get after it and find a find a way to make shit right?
00:25:53 Speaker_01
Yeah.
00:25:54 Speaker_02
I think this is something that that you won't see out of us in the future. I think we're very confident that we'll get the things fixed. We have all the talent that we need to go and win another Super Bowl. I've been on Super Bowl winning teams.
00:26:07 Speaker_02
We have enough talent to fucking make a run at this thing. And I think everybody knows that. All we got to do is just be our, be at our best. And that's what we were not for four quarters.
00:26:16 Speaker_02
I mean, there wasn't a single quarter that where it was like, Oh yeah, we outplayed them. We got them on that one. No, they were out there.
00:26:22 Speaker_02
They had a little bit more, uh, idea what we were doing and they were fundamentally more sound in a lot of different areas.
00:26:27 Speaker_03
Yeah.
00:26:28 Speaker_02
You know, I put that on myself to be more fun to harp on the fundamentals throughout practice, make sure I'm getting out there and I'm running around.
00:26:36 Speaker_02
I'm not just going through the plays, make sure I'm focused, make sure I get the timing down with the quarterback so that, you know, we're we're on time for Pat and Pat can be confident and throwing. throwing the football where it needs to go.
00:26:49 Speaker_02
You know, a lot of this shit is just, it's very fixable, and I got all the faith in the world in this team. Obviously, I focus on the offensive side, but I got all the faith in the world in SPACs and that defense to get it right as well.
00:27:04 Speaker_00
Well, Andy had a similar message to rookies and newcomers and really the whole team, I'm sure. You got to dig in. This should hurt. You spend a lot of time and effort preparing for these games as coaches and players.
00:27:16 Speaker_00
You have to figure out these problems and work to solve them. You can't just say everything's going to be okay. That's how this works.
00:27:23 Speaker_00
You have to check the ego at the door and do some self eval, which I think he's clearly saying, similar to what you're saying is, listen, we've been close to losing some games for the last couple weeks. And like, now we finally have lost one.
00:27:35 Speaker_00
It's time to really focus on what we need to get better at.
00:27:37 Speaker_02
I don't give a fuck how your body's feeling. I don't give a fuck where your mentality is off the field. When you step in that building, we are here to figure shit out. And we are here to get better as football players for the football team.
00:27:49 Speaker_02
I think that is a mentality going forward that everybody has to be a part of top down.
00:27:55 Speaker_02
And I think myself included, I got to be the leader that I've been in the past and and, you know, hold myself accountable so that everybody sees, you know, how it's done.
00:28:05 Speaker_02
And knowing that we got a lot of new faces and a lot of rookies and and whatnot, you know, and sometimes you just need that smack in the face. It is what it is. Sometimes you need a smack in the face to be able to punch in the mouth. Yeah.
00:28:17 Speaker_02
To to lock in and know that this is it's any given Sunday type league. And and not saying that that team was just any any other team, but I do believe we have better players and we get another shot at that.
00:28:31 Speaker_02
That team, I I definitely get excited about it.
00:28:33 Speaker_00
Well, Leo Chanel shared that he and his teammates plan to use their first loss is motivation with the three word phrase. Remember the feeling.
00:28:43 Speaker_00
Offensive bright spots my home's got the ball to 11 different players guard Mike Caliendo caught a spread out to convert a third this one got me fired up man.
00:28:51 Speaker_02
Oh yeah, that one got me fired up man. Caliendo is one of those guys he's he's a he's a right now he's number six on the on the old line. So wherever we whenever we need a guy we bring him in.
00:29:02 Speaker_00
There you go. I love a little extra alignment in the game. Yeah.
00:29:06 Speaker_02
Oh, yeah. Heavy personnel, a one a one guy, one of the best teammates on the on the team guy that just gets after whatever you need, coach. And we put him in a situation where he's just got to feel it out. He's got to feel the feel the area out.
00:29:20 Speaker_02
And on top of that, be ready for the football at any moment because Pat is Yeah, Pat trusted him. And he put it right on him for a big time third down.
00:29:27 Speaker_00
Put it right on his chest. For those of you wondering what this is, this is called the side view. They call it in a sprint out or boot naked action.
00:29:35 Speaker_00
You have somebody that secures the edge for a second and then it's his job just kind of be like a last minute, like kind of safety mechanism for the quarterback, the dot on the ball.
00:29:45 Speaker_00
If everybody overplays the naked action like they do, do you feel like the Chiefs offense is making progress to where you want to be at in January? Of course.
00:29:54 Speaker_02
I know it wasn't a progress. I don't, I don't know if progress is the right word.
00:29:59 Speaker_02
I think, uh, I think obviously there's, there's good games, there's bad games, whether or not you, you come out victorious or you you're winning your one-on-one matchups. How well did we execute the offense?
00:30:10 Speaker_02
A lot of people like to go into practices and say, well, do we have a good practice or a bad practice? No, we just fucking had practice. Right. You know, we figured out either how not to do shit or we figured out how to do shit.
00:30:21 Speaker_00
Right.
00:30:21 Speaker_02
And I think right now we're still figuring out how to run this offense the best or how to be at our best when the play is called. You know that every play can't be like the most the best play possible that the other team has no idea is coming.
00:30:35 Speaker_00
Yeah.
00:30:35 Speaker_02
You're not going to out scheme them every single time. Be wide open. Sometimes you got to run the ball knowing they know the exact run.
00:30:41 Speaker_02
Sometimes you got to you got to make a play in the past game when it's when they have everybody covered in the balls in the air. You have to be able to make shit right.
00:30:50 Speaker_02
You know, Coach Reed does a great job and the offensive staff and the defensive staff here in case he does a great job of putting us in positions to have success. But then it's our job to go out there and make that shit happen.
00:31:01 Speaker_02
And, you know, that's where I put my pride in making sure that no matter what Big Red calls, we make that shit work.
00:31:07 Speaker_01
Yeah.
00:31:08 Speaker_02
And and I think Pat is he's got the ultimate trump card back there and being able to do that. He's done that throughout his entire career. And and that's that's the goal.
00:31:17 Speaker_02
The goal is to keep trying to make everything that coach Reid calls, whether it's something that they got to take on or not. We got to make that shit happen. And and I think that's that's the direction that we're going for sure.
00:31:31 Speaker_00
And to what you just said, that's the thing that's made Pat so unique is, you know, I think Andy is as good at dialing up plays as anybody in the NFL. He's going to get you guys in a lot of advantageous situations.
00:31:41 Speaker_00
But when it isn't the advantageous situation, that's when Pat really is special. He can then improvise and do things that a defense can't prepare for. because it's going to be something that is unique to that situation. And that's the great equalizer.
00:31:55 Speaker_00
So, you know, that's the kind of ownership and pride you guys want to have. And knowing as players that at the end of the day, you know, we're the ones out there playing and we got to make things go. So love that.
00:32:07 Speaker_00
Next week, the Chiefs are headed to Carolina to take on the Panthers.
00:32:12 Speaker_00
Um, obviously not the same matchup as the bills, but it is the NFL and you will get humbled by any team, uh, especially when coming off the by Panthers are coming off there by, and after being the giants in Germany, two game win street. Wow.
00:32:25 Speaker_00
After I declared the season was over, I did, I did indeed do that. I was mighty hard on the Panthers.
00:32:31 Speaker_02
Quarterbacks playing better. They got some guys back on the defensive side D line is very good D line. That's the where the all their horses are there a lot of their guys are up front They got a they got a very veteran type team.
00:32:45 Speaker_02
You know, I feel like I played a lot of these guys on different teams Vikings Broncos kind of all over the league that have had this style of defense and We're going to have a fucking challenge. They've seen us at our worst these past couple weeks.
00:33:01 Speaker_02
We just haven't been playing our best, especially on the offensive side of the ball. And I think that's going to motivate them to feel like they have a chance. It's up to us, man. It's a mentality game, man. We go in there and do what we
00:33:13 Speaker_02
You know, we know how at our best. I don't think there's a team in the league that can beat us. Yeah. Yeah. Let's move along to the to the Eagles, baby. Eagles, a little Thursday night football action against the commandos. Oh, yeah, baby. Eagles 26.
00:33:27 Speaker_02
Commanders 18. Washington had been they came out the gates hot and they've had a bit of a up and down the past like three or four weeks, I believe.
00:33:36 Speaker_00
Yeah, I mean, they've still been good. The commanders are a good football team. They really are. They're well coached. Dan Quinn is a phenomenal head coach. And we're seeing how different that Dallas Cowboys defense looks with him not at the helm.
00:33:49 Speaker_00
I just think he's very good at utilizing guys within his system, scheming things up. There are a number of things he did in this game that stalled the run game out. The run yardage might look good because it ended good at the end of the game.
00:34:07 Speaker_00
But there were a lot of negative runs and things that they did that I think kind of threw the Philadelphia Eagles off, especially early in the game.
00:34:15 Speaker_00
And eventually we saw kind of what I think is probably the commander's weakness this year, which is the trenches on both sides. I just think that they are a very good team.
00:34:24 Speaker_00
The quarterback, Jaden Daniels, has played out of his mind for the majority of the season, especially as a rookie. I just think they're going to struggle against teams with good offensive lines and good defensive lines.
00:34:34 Speaker_00
I just think that they have good players. Their offensive line is filled with a lot of journeymen that have played football in the league for a long time, and they are good players.
00:34:43 Speaker_00
But on both sides, they're missing just like a couple of those dudes that like you can lean on to like, hey, this guy's going to create movement. We know where to go behind this one. They're just missing a little bit of that.
00:34:56 Speaker_00
And I think that when teams that are going to be able to win that physicality with them,
00:34:59 Speaker_00
They're going to be able to put pressure on Jaden Daniels and take him off his rhythm and timing, shut down their run game because a run game, a lot of people talking about Jaden as a thrower, Brian Robinson, and this rushing attack between him, McNichols and Eckler, all three of those guys, they've been running the ball like crazy.
00:35:18 Speaker_00
I just think that the Eagles defense has been really clicking as of late.
00:35:22 Speaker_02
Well, the Eagles are now first place in the NFCS behind only the Lions. Is Nick Sirianni not getting enough love from Philly? You know what?
00:35:29 Speaker_00
I was listening to WIP this morning. I think the Eagles fan. The fuck is WIP? WIP is the local, like, big sports talk show station in Philadelphia.
00:35:39 Speaker_02
So they're the ones that have been shitting on them.
00:35:41 Speaker_00
Well, they control a lot of the narrative, but I will say they usually are. I think WIP does is pretty much for the most part. I don't want to say for the most part. WIP is oftentimes just a reflection of what the fan base truly thinks about the team.
00:35:54 Speaker_02
Yeah, that's how you keep the fans involved. Sometimes they are wrong. That's how you keep them listening.
00:35:59 Speaker_00
Sometimes they are wrong.
00:35:59 Speaker_02
See, that's what I mean. I told you Sirianni is done.
00:36:03 Speaker_00
They're also, it tends to be, it tends to be the loudest fans, which, you know, hey, listen, I go on WIP. I like listening to WIP for these exact reasons. I like hearing those perspectives.
00:36:15 Speaker_00
But I think Nick, Nick was facing a lot of criticism for the end of last year and early on this year. He made a lot of fourth down calls that just haven't gone their way. And he's faced a lot of criticism for that.
00:36:26 Speaker_00
A lot of fans have been saying, you know, what does he do? He's not calling plays anymore. What is he doing as a head coach?
00:36:32 Speaker_01
It's so unfair.
00:36:34 Speaker_00
It is. It's very unfair.
00:36:35 Speaker_01
It's so fucked.
00:36:37 Speaker_00
And Nick is really, that narrative is starting to flip. Obviously when you win games, that's all people care about. And at the end of the day, what I think Nick does a really good job of doing, he's a great communicator.
00:36:47 Speaker_00
He does a wonderful job in team meetings and communicating who we are as a team, what we need to do, how we're going to attack them, what we're going to be on offense and defense, making critical decisions in the games, which some of them haven't gone his way this year, but I still don't disagree with most of those decisions.
00:37:03 Speaker_00
And at the end of the day, I think Nick has done a great job, especially retooling from a disastrous end of last year. I mean, we lost a lot of games down the stretch and they bring in Vic Fangio.
00:37:15 Speaker_00
They bring in Keller Moore, and you can just see that there's so much more well coordinated and well oiled machine this year, as well as retooling from a talent perspective. They go out and sign Saquon Barkley.
00:37:28 Speaker_00
A lot of the young guys that they drafted have have really started to come on, especially in the defensive side of the ball. Jalen Carter's playing as good as anybody is right now.
00:37:36 Speaker_00
And Nick is definitely starting to get back into good graces of Philly fans, even though it was a rough start.
00:37:42 Speaker_00
I think there was a poll today that most people are like, oh yeah, he's got a better winning percentage than all these coaches through the first three seasons. That can't just all be luck. He's got to be doing something good.
00:37:52 Speaker_03
Well, you give them the best players in the league,
00:37:56 Speaker_00
Who do you want to win with? Who do you want to win with? People don't win with bad players. I don't care how good of a coach you are. That's not how it works. But there are people that will lose with good players.
00:38:09 Speaker_00
One of my favorite quotes, or one of my favorite sayings, and I'm trying to remember who Kobe said, but you remember when The Last Dance came out from the Chicago Bulls?
00:38:19 Speaker_00
And my whole life, I kind of thought Phil Jackson was a little bit overrated, if I'm being honest. Like I'm like, dude, he coached Michael Jordan, and then he had Kobe Bryant, Shaq. Like he had Scottie Pippen.
00:38:30 Speaker_00
Yeah, and I'm like, dude, this guy didn't do anything redeeming. Then I watched Last Dance, I was like, oh no. This guy like kelped that whole fucking thing together. He's just putting out fires.
00:38:40 Speaker_00
Jordan and Pippin hating each other towards the end of it.
00:38:43 Speaker_02
Like, everybody, this dude was getting this circle. We're gonna we're gonna do some mindful.
00:38:49 Speaker_00
Yeah. Zen master. So I think
00:38:54 Speaker_02
I would have been so out on that, dude. Oh my God.
00:38:57 Speaker_00
So Kobe came and talked.
00:38:59 Speaker_02
He would have sounded like, Phil, what the fuck are we doing, dude?
00:39:04 Speaker_00
Kobe came and talked to the team one year, and he talked about this narrative that Phil Jackson isn't a good coach because he's always had good players. And Kobe's like, well, who do you want him to win with?
00:39:14 Speaker_00
You wanted to win with and he named like somebody and I can't remember who I don't want to throw shade at whoever basketball player he did name. But he was like, that's not how it works. You have to have good players to win. Right.
00:39:24 Speaker_00
But at the end of the day, he won. And there's a lot of coaches that did. So I think, you know, Nick is put together.
00:39:30 Speaker_02
It's all about triangle offense, Jason. Everything's geometry. You got to understand this is you got to spread the floor out. Give two guys freedom, everything outside of that.
00:39:40 Speaker_02
We just need cutters, guys in the right place at the right time, knocking down open shots.
00:39:45 Speaker_00
Well, Nick Sirianni's offense is- Get in the paint and elevate, son.
00:39:51 Speaker_02
What are we doing? The easiest shot in basketball.
00:39:54 Speaker_00
Get as close as you can. Michael, show them how it's done. God damn it.
00:40:02 Speaker_01
All right, boys, we're going to implement the triangle offense.
00:40:06 Speaker_00
Yeah, that's a long-winded way of saying that, like, at the end of the day, Nick Sirianni has been on some really good teams in Philadelphia. Yes, they've had really good players.
00:40:13 Speaker_00
Howie Roseman and the personnel department have done a great job as well as the coaches of building a roster that is going to be, you know, synonymous with the team and way they want to play football.
00:40:24 Speaker_00
And I think that right now they're really starting to come together. They found out their identity on offense. Saquon Barkley is a big piece of that.
00:40:31 Speaker_02
Speaking of Saquon, he rushed for a hundred and forty six yards and two tighties against Washington. Man, this guy is fucking balling, man. He wouldn't happen to a better guy, man.
00:40:40 Speaker_02
We had him on the podcast in the offseason, and I think we both realized it right then and there that we're like, damn, Philly just got a fucking. He just stole from the entire NFL, man. Yeah.
00:40:54 Speaker_02
And you could tell how how just down to earth he was and how much of a teammate he was. He had been dealt with some injuries over there in New York, but it's just awesome to see him get this thing going. Game ceiling.
00:41:07 Speaker_02
Thirty nine yard touchdown late in the game. Shout out to Camp Jergens on blocking the safety.
00:41:12 Speaker_00
Oh, yeah.
00:41:13 Speaker_02
Twice on this play.
00:41:14 Speaker_00
Dude, he blocked him twice on this play, and he got him to play right before this. They ran this play two times in a row. This is the second version of it. They ran this play, I think, three times in the game that I saw. Yeah, he obliterated.
00:41:26 Speaker_02
You just see the offense, just everybody's creating grass. Half their team is outside the numbers.
00:41:32 Speaker_01
Yeah.
00:41:32 Speaker_02
And when you get a defense trying to play their gaps so far to the third, like damn near on the sideline, it just creates so much room for a guy with speed and vision to be able to work with, man.
00:41:42 Speaker_00
They're playing this like four minute defense. They got the time in front there and the safeties down weak side and cam does a great job of getting up to him. His hands are so strong.
00:41:54 Speaker_00
He has that great, like three inch punch that is just so violent when he connects, he launches guys in space. Goddamn. So they ran that play, the play right before they ran that exact same play to the left.
00:42:05 Speaker_00
And Cam, if Landon would have held onto that block, they probably would have scored on that play. Cause he did the exact same thing to the guy. Just launched him. Yeah. Check this out. Wow.
00:42:14 Speaker_02
Jesus.
00:42:15 Speaker_00
So strong. And he knew it too. He did a little head bob right there. Oh my gosh.
00:42:19 Speaker_02
Big jerky. Beef jerky. Jerky jerking. Jesus kid.
00:42:24 Speaker_00
Get up.
00:42:24 Speaker_02
Get up. Get up. Make a play. Make a play. Fuck him back on the ground, man.
00:42:27 Speaker_00
That's that's a couple of big ones at the end of the game. You had that one and then the play right before that that he scored the touchdown on.
00:42:33 Speaker_00
Not right before that, but the drive before that when he scored the touchdown on, they had been, you know, when teams play a shell, like let's say we're two by two.
00:42:41 Speaker_00
I don't know if this is worth getting into, but you run a zone play weak side in that nickel. plays the B gap late to the weak side. You know what I mean?
00:42:52 Speaker_02
Yeah, I hear you.
00:42:54 Speaker_00
We call it a nosy nickel. They were doing that a bunch and that ball was getting so close. Like Saquon had like two or three that could have been huge hits right through that B gap.
00:43:05 Speaker_00
The first time, if he just would have dug the nickel out just a little bit harder, that would have been explosive. Then there was another one where it just kind of got in the way enough, right, where it ruined the run right before it.
00:43:16 Speaker_00
He scores a touchdown on it. I think they got confused. I don't know if Bobby didn't know that they were rotating down to the tight end, but they didn't have anybody in that B gap. And it was a at the gate, 25 yard touchdown, whatever it was.
00:43:28 Speaker_00
But anyways, they really should have done better on the ground. I thought Dan did a really good job of scheming some things up, but I came away from the game. I mean, this was really positive. Saquon is so good, man. The speed and jumping over people.
00:43:45 Speaker_00
That's a lot of the stuff that people notice watching him. What I notice is he is on, he's got such good vision. He makes so many plays and makes reads that I've never seen or played with a guy make. I mean, you could argue LaShawn was as good at it.
00:44:02 Speaker_00
LaShawn was maybe the shiftiest guy I've ever seen play football, but Saquon does so many things. He's patient when he needs to be. He gets through the hole with explosion when he needs to. He hits it frontside or backside. He's running duo.
00:44:15 Speaker_00
He can get it to that backside, which is so hard to see. He just does a phenomenal job of creating runs and combined with this offensive line and the quarterback they have and the threat he is.
00:44:28 Speaker_02
You know, good luck, you know, so anyways, well Saquon's rushed for a thousand yards the 1137 yards and eight touchdowns so far the season just 175 yards behind his season best with what seven games six games left and
00:44:45 Speaker_00
Yeah, I don't want to jinx anything. But yeah, he's looking pretty good about midway through the season here.
00:44:50 Speaker_02
The last running back to win MVP of the National Football League was Adrian Peterson back in 2012. That was the last non quarterback to win it as well.
00:45:01 Speaker_02
But should we stop calling it the MVP and just give it to the best quarterback like the most valuable quarterback just announced that the best quarterback is the MVP.
00:45:11 Speaker_02
Yeah, the most valuable quarterback and then make the, I mean, because then the offensive player of the year, that's the one that kind of gets shuffled around to like running backs and wideouts.
00:45:20 Speaker_02
And I don't even think a wideouts won it, but yeah, I don't know. I just think, I think there needs to be some other metric. for outside of quarterbacks? Well, it's hard because there's so much being put on the quarterback.
00:45:34 Speaker_02
The reality is got the ball in his hands the most of the time. So I get it.
00:45:37 Speaker_00
But yeah, the reality is the majority of the quarterback is the most valuable position on offense. So it makes sense that they're the ones winning this award the vast majority of time.
00:45:48 Speaker_00
Every once in a while there is a running back like Adrian Peterson in 2012, where it's so obvious that the only reason this offense is successful, or the main reason this offense is dominant the way they are, is because of how good that player is.
00:46:00 Speaker_00
There can absolutely be a case made for Saquon Barkley this year in the way he's playing. and how he has elevated the offense and what the offense has turned into.
00:46:10 Speaker_00
Because we've always been a running team a little bit with Jalen and kind of the attributes that he brings opens a lot of the run game up.
00:46:19 Speaker_00
But they have really turned into this run and play action team, first and second down, and they're embracing it. And Saquon, he has made the offense and the team so much better as a player and as a person.
00:46:32 Speaker_00
I think it's a very good argument that he is the most valuable component to a team. this season. We'll see how the rest of the season goes.
00:46:40 Speaker_00
I think there's a lot of people saying like, you know, because of the tush push, he's missing out on a lot of touchdowns. Anybody that's taking touchdowns away from Saquon Barkley, like that's making him less valuable, I think.
00:46:50 Speaker_00
Shouldn't even be allowed to, you know, choose who an MVP is. Like, the dude is being dominant. I don't think that that's a metric that should gauge that.
00:46:58 Speaker_02
Well, talking about those touchdowns, Saquon has has landed on the one yard line nine times this year. That is. Yeah. And he has eight touchdowns. So you add those nine to it. He'd be sitting at 17 right now, halfway through the season.
00:47:15 Speaker_02
And that would be insane.
00:47:17 Speaker_00
Yeah. I mean, it's probably not 100 percent, but let's say out of those nine. He probably ends up with at least seven touchdowns. I think that's probably a good percentage off of those.
00:47:27 Speaker_02
From the one-yard line, I like Saquon giving the ball. I think that's about an 80% chance, yeah.
00:47:33 Speaker_00
I think that that's fair to say, and that's a lot of touchdowns.
00:47:35 Speaker_02
It's crazy. I wonder how many times I've been stuffed at the one yard line.
00:47:39 Speaker_00
Dude, it's hard to get in there. It's tight spaces. Like Stout said, it's like cramming salt up a fat lady's ass down there in that one yard line.
00:47:46 Speaker_02
Not a lot of windows. Shit's watertight down there, man. Oh, yeah. The crab rear end.
00:47:51 Speaker_00
What's the other one? The duck's bottom? You ever heard that one? There's something with a duck and a bottom. Anyways. Yeah. Next week, the Eagles head to Los Angeles to take on the Rams. Hmm. Nice. Unrelated question. Who's going to win the NFC West?
00:48:06 Speaker_00
Great question.
00:48:07 Speaker_02
I mean, it's a race over there with the Niners and Seahawks and Rams. I think it might be the Cardinals. Cardinals are going to find their way out of there. I mean, They already got a game up on everybody, right? They're leading.
00:48:18 Speaker_00
They are. They're leading. I want to see Kyler continue to play the way he is. Like at the end of the day, you just got to see it proven. You know what I mean? And the 49ers have proven it more over the past few seasons.
00:48:32 Speaker_00
Matthew Stafford has proven it in the past and Sean McVay, as well as, you know, the Seahawks and Gino. Both of those teams have proven it. They have a track record. They've won Super Bowls. They've been in Super Bowls. Cardinals are hot right now.
00:48:45 Speaker_00
But the Cardinals are hot. Jonathan Gannon has them playing really well. They have a great running game and Kyler Murray's playing really well right now. Yeah, he is.
00:48:52 Speaker_00
It'll be interesting to see, but if they keep playing like this, I think it's the Cardinals.
00:48:57 Speaker_02
Yeah, there you go. Eagles right behind the Lions over there in the NFC. Who would have thought? As you know, 92 Percenters, Jason and I are big Whopper fans. So let's talk about this million dollar Whopper contest and these new fan created Whoppers.
00:49:13 Speaker_02

00:52:31 Speaker_02
That's right.
00:52:33 Speaker_00
We're going to get to the Whopper recap right now. Wildest news out of week 11. For the first time ever, the Detroit Lions are the favorites to win the Super Bowl. Congratulations.
00:52:43 Speaker_02
Yeah, we'll see how. We'll see how it ends. Not to take away from anything the Lions are fucking doing right now, because God damn, they look unstoppable.
00:52:50 Speaker_00
They do. They look very good there. And we brought we talked about, like, can a running back ever win the MVP? The league has shifted back to, you know, this line of scrimmage, run and play action. Like the last few years, it's gone to this.
00:53:06 Speaker_00
You know, I mean, the last decade's been really pass heavy, spread it out, dial it up with when you got quarterback Dan Campbell.
00:53:13 Speaker_02
getting these guys to bite kneecaps, man.
00:53:15 Speaker_00
Holy cow. They're just run through your fucking face of the line of scrimmage.
00:53:19 Speaker_02
Dude, they're one, two points that they're in the backfield. I might be two of them. It's impressive. Two of the best we've seen in the national football league.
00:53:26 Speaker_00
They're kind of different. Like, I love the way David Montgomery is just a great every day. Yeah. Or a great first, second down, like just run right at you. Gibbs. I really like watching him play.
00:53:39 Speaker_00
He's shifty, he's dynamic, he can do a lot of things really, really well. I think both of them combined are really just a very fun time. Oh, I didn't know this. They are nicknamed Sonic and Knuckles. So Sonic is definitely Montgomery.
00:53:56 Speaker_02
What?
00:53:57 Speaker_00
Gibbs kind of reminds me of like Knuckles. I could see that.
00:54:00 Speaker_02
Yeah, I think you're yeah, you gotta twist it. Sonic is the fastest of the bunch.
00:54:05 Speaker_00
Yeah, but like Sonic doesn't when I think of Knuckles, I think more of shiftiness from what I remember. What? Like Sonic was just like a freaking roadrunner, like or was a like a bowling ball, which I think of more like you would bowl up.
00:54:21 Speaker_00
I kind of think of that more like David Montgomery Lane. But what are you clearly? I don't know the nickname.
00:54:26 Speaker_02
Well, they both could do it both. All right. It is what it is. Yeah. Either one of them could be whoever they want to be because they got the full package.
00:54:33 Speaker_00
That's about as dynamic of a duo we've seen. We saw what they did to the Jaguars, and we'll get into that in a second. But first, we're gonna start out with a game that might've been my favorite game from this past week, especially from Sunday.
00:54:45 Speaker_00
Steelers beat the Ravens. There's something about Steelers and Ravens game. It's always tight. Come on, baby. It's always physical, like that AFC North style of play that we grew up watching in Cleveland. AFC North, man. And it did not disappoint.
00:55:01 Speaker_00
My goodness. When you're playing, especially when you're older and the chippiness happens on the field. I feel like a lot of times you're like, dude, will you stop at the nonsense? Like, what, what are you doing? Being ridiculous. You know what I mean?
00:55:11 Speaker_00
Like, just like, can we just play football? Why you got to get into all this other stuff?
00:55:14 Speaker_02
I haven't felt that yet.
00:55:15 Speaker_00
That's the way I was. Now I find myself like, dude, I love it. I love when people are like getting each other's faces and talking trash, like Roger Jones going at it with Humphrey.
00:55:24 Speaker_00
They got to get warned because they're about to get kicked out of the game because they're drawing at each other and hitting each other after the whistle. That's the kind of football that gets you excited.
00:55:32 Speaker_00
And that's what this game that's the energy this game had. And that's the energy your guys game had. You guys are a lot of back and forth. Dan Dawkins was not all over the place. That's when you know the meaningful games are happening.
00:55:44 Speaker_00
And it was fun to see that kind of football being played. And the Steelers and Ravens, it was an old-fashioned bar brawl. It was two teams that knew how important the game was. They were going at it.
00:55:57 Speaker_00
And ultimately, the Steelers won the game without scoring a single touchdown.
00:56:00 Speaker_02
Six field goals, baby.
00:56:02 Speaker_00
Boswell, six field goals leading them to victory. I will say Steelers won the game. Their defense looks outstanding and they clearly know how to kind of get under Lamar's skin. They kind of have always played them well.
00:56:14 Speaker_00
Part of it's their defensive line is just so good and they kind of shut down some of the run actions and things that Baltimore likes to do. You know, T.J. Watt is a dynamic player. Cam Hayward is a dynamic player.
00:56:26 Speaker_00
The Ravens had their opportunities and I still came away from the game thinking that the Ravens are probably the better team.
00:56:32 Speaker_00
They just had a lot of penalties, a lot of mistakes, and things kind of kept the Steelers in the game for long enough to secure a victory. Shout out to the Steelers. It's a big, big win for them. They're playing a lot better.
00:56:43 Speaker_02
8-2 or 9-2 as well, I think.
00:56:45 Speaker_00
Yeah, they're right there. Potential coaching changes. At this point in the season, there's a lot of speculation, obviously, on what is in the future.
00:56:53 Speaker_00
Because at this point in the season, there's some teams that are clearly not going to be competing for a Super Bowl. And some fan bases want to know what is in store for next year. They've already given up traffic.
00:57:03 Speaker_02
I just don't believe in doing that, man.
00:57:06 Speaker_00
What do you mean firing a coach midway through the midway through the season?
00:57:09 Speaker_02
I just I understand things can probably get hostile in the building between the front office and a head coach. And I understand that that could be a part of it. But
00:57:21 Speaker_02
if you don't know the direction you're going in the future, to just fucking can a guy and make everyone's life that much harder to change the scenery that much that I just, I don't see the benefits of it.
00:57:35 Speaker_00
I think for me, I've also never been a part of a team where that was listen, you've Andy Reid, pretty, uh, Pretty good. You guys have had the coaching thing figured out. First of all, I agree.
00:57:47 Speaker_00
I think most of the time it does not make, I don't like firing a head coach midway through the season.
00:57:52 Speaker_00
I'll say the one time that I think it probably does make sense in some regards is if there's tension in the building as a result of things not going well and the head coach is not a part of fixing that.
00:58:05 Speaker_00
He's a part of like making that an issue and exacerbating problems and Exacerbating that was the word I was looking for cuz thank you, you know, there's a you know How do you know when the right time is to move on from head coach?
00:58:17 Speaker_00
I think a lot of that comes down to when there's just like a difference of where you want the team to go from the ownership and Personnel and hey, like there's a disconnect on you know where we want to go next and what we're doing right now isn't working and it's time for in the best interest of everybody involved to move on and
00:58:37 Speaker_00
And most of the time, the right time to make that decision is after the season. But there are some times where it's like, all right, listen, this is like not a conducive environment that we want to have. We want to have everyone more on the same page.
00:58:52 Speaker_00
So let's get rid of the head coach. And it also kind of establishes to all the players that are still there, like, oh, God, they just fired the coach. We got to, you know, we're next if we don't prove kind of, you know,
00:59:05 Speaker_00
who we are and what we mean to this team. Yeah, in general, usually not a fan of that.
00:59:11 Speaker_00
But that's kind of when you know, it's time to move on when it's just like, man, you know, this coach has had his opportunities in his time, and it just hasn't gone that way. Or in a worse way. It's like, man, everybody's finger pointing upstairs.
00:59:22 Speaker_00
That's when it's bad. When people are finger pointing upstairs, you know, everybody's every all the coaches in front office doors are closed instead of open. It's not a good sign.
00:59:32 Speaker_02
Yeah.
00:59:33 Speaker_00
Another blowout loss. So I guess these are who we're talking about. My man Doug Peterson in Jacksonville lost 52-6 to the Lions. Another blowout loss. I mean, listen, it has not gone well for the Jags this year.
00:59:46 Speaker_00
And I think there's a number of reasons for that. Listen, I played for Doug. I know the type of coach he is. I know how much he cares about his players and the value he brings in that position.
00:59:57 Speaker_01
Oh, yeah.
00:59:58 Speaker_00
I will never not be willing to play and suit up for Doug Peterson. I'm right there with you, brother, because of the type of guy he is in the way he coaches the game. So it hurts me that they're struggling down there in Jacksonville.
01:00:11 Speaker_00
And, you know, ultimately, the head coach bears the brunt of all this stuff. That's part of that position. But It's hard for me to go there with Doug because I know what a fantastic, phenomenal coach he is.
01:00:23 Speaker_00
Another one that people are talking about is, you know, the situational failure with the Bears and Packers. Bears are now 5-17 in one score games under Ibrafluz since 2022. Man, that's rough.
01:00:37 Speaker_02
There was another stat out there that really is just like, He just luck just hasn't been on his side late in the games, man.
01:00:45 Speaker_00
I think I will say that stat that he's been in that many close games.
01:00:50 Speaker_02
And like, I just think that he was also I think there was another stat saying that he he's had the most like 90% chances to win and bad errors. Yeah. I mean, listen, I forget what it was, man.
01:01:03 Speaker_02
And I met I had the fortune to meet and coach Ibrafluous over the offseason actually at the Kentucky Derby, man. I met him at the Derby. Great fucking guy. You could tell the guy just fucking loves ball, man.
01:01:14 Speaker_02
We were hanging out, talking ball just about the entire time we were around each other, man.
01:01:18 Speaker_00
He used to be the linebackers coach in Dallas, and he would coach Sean Lee and a bunch of those guys and give me fits. He's a fantastic coach. Defense has not been the issue for the most part in Chicago. They've played defense pretty well.
01:01:30 Speaker_00
They've really struggled offensively. And again, ultimately, the head coach is kind of the one that bears everything. The fact that they're in that many one-score games, though, tells me that the defense has been playing well. They've had opportunities.
01:01:41 Speaker_00
They just haven't been able to execute. Obviously, there's the one glaring one that they kind of messed up on with the Hail Mary and even the play before the Hail Mary against Washington earlier this year, the block field goal.
01:01:52 Speaker_00
I don't know how you put that on either flues, but I guess you put everything one fucking paw in the air, man.
01:01:57 Speaker_02
You can't just fucking like it's not even like they got penetrated.
01:02:01 Speaker_00
How did he refuse not tell them to not let them put their hands up? Keep the hands down on.
01:02:08 Speaker_02
Yeah, he's been hit with a bunch of things that just I feel like have been out of his control. But there's so much to go into all of a football game, all four quarters of a football game.
01:02:20 Speaker_02
And like you said, man, the head coach is he's going to take the wrath. Yeah, he's going to take the beating if something's going on.
01:02:25 Speaker_00
Yeah. So I don't know. The one thing with Iver Floos that's, you know, and listen, I think he's a fantastic defensive coach. They just invested a lot of money into Caleb Williams.
01:02:33 Speaker_00
So they need to figure out something that's going to make that kid thrive.
01:02:37 Speaker_00
And maybe that's if it's not the offensive coordinator, you got to hire a guy and steal him from an organization that is a proven offensive mind, in my opinion, I think you have to figure that out. Just from like a resource allocation, right?
01:02:51 Speaker_00
They need and want Caleb Williams to pan out, they're gonna have to figure out a way to make that happen, because they got players over there. Like there's weapons over there and DJ Moore and Keenan Allen.
01:03:01 Speaker_00
They got horses over there, you know what I mean? So the offensive line is struggling a little bit, but even that I think. I think they kind of got some decent offensive linemen just haven't really executed as well.
01:03:11 Speaker_02
Big question mark in the in the NFL for head coaches is a very shocking one for me because I've I've had a lot of trouble going or at least had a lot of bumps in the road going up against his team and that's Zach Taylor at Cincinnati.
01:03:24 Speaker_00
Yeah, when you start seeing quotes, it's not a good sign, right? Jamar Chase said, How do I do it? I don't know. Ask Zach, ask the coaches. Don't ask me. That's not my job. What is what was the question was asked?
01:03:37 Speaker_02
How can the team finish better? That was the question was how does the team finish better?
01:03:43 Speaker_00
How do I do it? I don't know as Zach as coaches. Don't ask me. That's not my job. I don't think he's throwing shade at Zach in this.
01:03:51 Speaker_02
Yeah, I think he's on the field.
01:03:53 Speaker_00
I don't call plays for us, you know, so I can't really do nothing. I think he's just basically saying that's like, Yeah, I mean, maybe he's throwing shade. I mean, let me think about this more how the team could finish better.
01:04:05 Speaker_00
I mean, just deflecting blame. Yeah, and putting it on Zack. And I mean, I don't know. I don't know what to think about this. This wasn't as bad as I thought before seeing it. I think there's probably a guy that's just frustrated, you know, feels like
01:04:19 Speaker_02
Yeah, he doesn't doesn't have the answers right then and there, you know, obviously, he's playing his fucking ass off. He's Lee's about to be the triple crown winner if he stays on this pace and freaking beast. Yeah.
01:04:29 Speaker_02
So it's like, I mean, he's doing everything he can to win. And I think the question itself was asking him, Hey, do you have the answers? He's like, No, I mean, that's exactly you pay the coaches to figure it out. Yeah.
01:04:41 Speaker_00
That's above my pay grade kind of type answer.
01:04:43 Speaker_02
Yeah, especially right the fuck now after I just had another heartbreaking loss. Like what do you like? Yeah, what the fuck are you even asking me right now?
01:04:50 Speaker_02
I think it was one of those defer to the head guy and let the head guy answer those questions because right now I don't want to fucking even think about it.
01:04:58 Speaker_00
has to be police plays are part of why Cincinnati isn't finishing. He said, I don't know. He's just being honest.
01:05:05 Speaker_02
Yeah, I don't know. I think he's I think he spoke his mind in the past. And I think people are just looking for those kind of quotes from him. But I don't think this one you don't think you dive too deep into this one. Or maybe you do.
01:05:19 Speaker_00
I think they're going to, especially in Cincinnati, because the Bengals are much worse than they expected them to be. You know, everyone expected this team with Burrow coming back and being healthy. to be a Super Bowl contender.
01:05:32 Speaker_00
And as of right now, it looks like they're not going to make the playoffs. So Zack Taylor is going to face a ton of criticism. And again, that's the nature of it. He's been there for six years. This is where it starts to, but the Bengals are unique.
01:05:46 Speaker_00
The Bengals don't, you know, family run business. They hold onto coaches.
01:05:50 Speaker_02
I would say that coach Taylor's not going anywhere.
01:05:53 Speaker_00
The one thing that probably does make sense, Dallas. I mean, So bad last night against Houston. It just doesn't feel like anything is headed in the right direction.
01:06:02 Speaker_02
Doesn't really look like that's a motivated football team.
01:06:04 Speaker_00
I don't know. It looks like it's a bad situation.
01:06:06 Speaker_02
It looks like everybody's collecting checks over there. And you can tell a team when it's fighting. And it doesn't look like too many guys are out there fighting.
01:06:16 Speaker_00
No. And you want to talk about quotes. There's a lot of quotes, stuff on the sideline. I mean, they fought in the first half yesterday. Yeah, they try to fake pawn.
01:06:27 Speaker_02
I just asked these nuts Talk about these nuts. All time, I love it. I'm too much of a child, man. I'll defer to that. Shout out to Diggs, man.
01:06:44 Speaker_02
I know, that shit, I mean, it sucks losing, and when you don't have your best players out there, Dak's not playing, it's tough, man. It's tough, you know?
01:06:54 Speaker_02
CD Lamb's out there trying to make shit shake as much as he possibly can, and same with the run game. It's just, it's tough, man.
01:07:02 Speaker_00
What sucks for Mike is that it feels like a lot of what is going on in Dallas. And listen, Dak hasn't played as well as everybody expected this year. It feels like it's a lot of it's personality driven.
01:07:14 Speaker_00
Like they had opportunities to sign guys this offseason. They chose not to. They trusted the guys they had in the building. And a lot of those young guys and people that they trusted just have not played at a high level.
01:07:23 Speaker_00
And I don't know that you can blame Mike McCarthy for that. Maybe he can. I don't know who's making those decisions. Brandon saying yes, you do our resident Dallas fan Brandon intern Brandon.
01:07:36 Speaker_00
I think it's more Jerry's fault That's kind of what I'm getting at like Jerry's the one who's making all of these decisions He's the one who created this fucking stadium so that the Sun would peek through He's the one that fucking that doesn't want to do maintenance on the ceiling if we want to get rid of Mike McCarthy Go for it.
01:07:56 Speaker_00
I do think They just paid Dak all this money, similar to Caleb Williams. Like they got to find a way to get him going for it to make. Oh, yeah. Like they're invested a lot of money.
01:08:06 Speaker_00
I know that Caleb isn't like when that investment has been made in the quarterback. You you you have to figure out a way for that investment to make sense.
01:08:14 Speaker_02
And the Giants are in the same boat right now.
01:08:16 Speaker_00
Oh, no, they're getting that. They've their cards have already shown they're moving on from Dale Jones.
01:08:21 Speaker_02
What? Is this news? Did he just get benched or something? He got benched.
01:08:25 Speaker_00
They're going to Tommy Cutlet's, baby.
01:08:27 Speaker_02
What?
01:08:27 Speaker_00
Shut the... You didn't... I swear to God, Tommy Cutlet's is back. Cutlet's is back in it? You didn't hear this? No, man. Yeah, baby. Not only did they bench Stanley Jones, they didn't even go to Drew Locke. They went straight to Tommy Cutlet's.
01:08:38 Speaker_00
Listen... I'm like, what is going on? We went... They want to... They just want those shirts. They want everybody in the stadium like, Hey, we know we're not very good. We're just going to be a caricature of a Italian dude from New York now.
01:08:51 Speaker_00
But no, I mean, this is clearly, the Daniel Jones experiment is over. They're benching him so that he doesn't get hurt and they don't owe him a bunch of money. There's going to be a bunch of changes in New York after this season.
01:09:02 Speaker_00
But yeah, back to Dak and Dallas. Yeah, we aren't talking about that one. How's that one not on the coaching? I mean, is Dayball, you think Dayball's safe? He was a coach of the year two years ago.
01:09:12 Speaker_00
I don't really know what to say about all this coaching stuff because it's hard to know what the right moves are unless you're in these buildings. Ultimately, coaches are responsible for the product, for the outcomes.
01:09:23 Speaker_00
Beyonce, Halftime is coming to you live on Christmas Day. I'm going to fucking miss it. Damn it. Yeah, baby. I can't wait to watch this one announced this week. Beyonce will be performing at halftime at the Texans Ravens game on Netflix.
01:09:38 Speaker_00
Yeah, how much does the NFL hate the NBA Christmas games? Put it out for Adam Silver Jr. deserve this? Listen, NBA does not have, you know,
01:09:47 Speaker_02
Christmas, right?
01:09:48 Speaker_00
Yeah, they don't have, you know, they're not the king of Christmas.
01:09:51 Speaker_02
No, especially when the NFL is in town, baby. Hey, oh, come on now. We get some we get some big time matchups. Texans, Ravens, Chiefs, Steelers. How about that? Who would have thought?
01:10:02 Speaker_00
I mean, NFL people got to figure it out.
01:10:05 Speaker_02
Come on now.
01:10:06 Speaker_00
Pretty good. Good.
01:10:08 Speaker_02
Hopefully Netflix can figure it out as well.
01:10:09 Speaker_00
Because last time, hopefully they get the streaming stuff. Right.
01:10:14 Speaker_02
God damn it. My shit got froze literally on Mike Tyson's cheeks. Dude, that was the one of the, it felt like a parody going into it. Yeah. Just from like Mike slapping them in the, in the weigh-ins and, or the inner, or like the pre-fight stuff.
01:10:35 Speaker_00
Yeah, you know, that's like part of the bit.
01:10:38 Speaker_02
Dude, when he did the interview, and then, because I'm pretty sure he did the interview with his son. That was the son that interviewed him. He kisses him on the cheek, which I've never seen that in an interview ever in my life.
01:10:50 Speaker_02
The guy that's done with the interview right before his fight goes and kisses another man on the cheek, says, I love you, and then walks off and the camera pans and slightly goes down so he can catch this guy in nothing but a jockstrap.
01:11:05 Speaker_02
I'm not going to lie. I immediately sent that to fucking everyone. That was the funniest shit ever.
01:11:12 Speaker_00
I was not watching at this point. I'm kind of embarrassed that I watched this to begin with. I should have known better. I couldn't help myself. I will say though, the moment I saw that clip on social media,
01:11:24 Speaker_00
Like, I didn't think Mike was going to win before, but I knew when I saw those cheeks, he wasn't going to win. Come on. Lose your game. I mean, he got an old man ass in that photo. Are you being honest?
01:11:36 Speaker_00
Well, I don't want to keep your glutes past like 40. This is my point. This is why Andy said that. Lose your glutes. Lose your game. You can't be out there with saggy glutes. He doesn't have the same. He wasn't bouncing. He tried. He was trying.
01:11:51 Speaker_02
to bounce around.
01:11:52 Speaker_00
He could still whoop my ass, but the face of a person that trains in boxing is a whole nother thing.
01:11:58 Speaker_02
Yeah. Oh, no, man. I just think that was that was some funny shit. Hopefully Netflix, though. Back to the point.
01:12:05 Speaker_00
Yeah. Figure out streaming.
01:12:06 Speaker_02
Yeah. Especially if we're going to be watching all about all the Christmas games on Netflix, because I was fucking I was pretty pissed. I was pretty pissed. It kept going in and out. It kicked me out, kicked me off about four or five times.
01:12:17 Speaker_00
I am pissed at nothing Netflix did. I'm only mad at myself for actually spectating that and contributing that stuff like that happens. I don't know what I like. I just love Mike Tyson so much. I couldn't help but watch it.
01:12:31 Speaker_02
But I mean, I just love watching Cleveland.
01:12:34 Speaker_00
I knew what I was going into before it like even happened.
01:12:38 Speaker_02
And I still like just but you can't nobody can. It's the best shit ever.
01:12:44 Speaker_00
I'm not gonna lie the ass interview definitely. I think I I don't think I was gonna watch it. Kylie and I were watching Great British Bake Off, and then I saw that ass interview, and I was like, Kai, I gotta watch... That ass interview.
01:12:55 Speaker_00
I gotta watch this old man who used to be the baddest person on the planet try and... Go up against this fucking beast of a Cleveland kid, baby. This West Side Clevelander. Just Cleveland kids living out their dreams, baby. That's what I'm here for.
01:13:06 Speaker_00
Shout out to the Paul brothers, baby. Dude, I just... Holy cow. Shout out to Jake Paul for not knocking out Mike.
01:13:14 Speaker_02
The Mike Tyson that we know, if he was in Jake Paul's position, he would have fucking KO'd that guy into a coma.
01:13:21 Speaker_00
Well, that's why Jake Paul's not Mike Tyson.
01:13:26 Speaker_02
He's got a heart.
01:13:30 Speaker_00
They wanted to talk about the interview with the kid that was asking, you know, uh, what do you think of your legacy, Mike?
01:13:35 Speaker_02
And I'm like, yeah, I'm talking about the vision.
01:13:37 Speaker_00
That's a great, that's a different level. He's not changed about Mike Tyson. It's his ability to answer interviewers in the most spectacular fashion. Think I give a fuck about legacy. We're all going to be dead. Who cares about legacy when you're dead?
01:13:53 Speaker_00
Who cares about what people think about you?
01:13:54 Speaker_02
Shout out to the young girl reporting. Goddamn, she was really professional.
01:13:58 Speaker_00
She kept it together. She kept that thing. She was like, wow.
01:14:00 Speaker_02
That's a very interesting, I've never thought of it like that.
01:14:03 Speaker_00
They did not prepare me for this in my multimedia class in high school. I did not know that I was gonna get ridiculous people to... Yeah, well, welcome to Fight Night.
01:14:13 Speaker_00
Okay, at some point, somebody's gonna tell you that nothing you do in life matters, because everybody's gonna be dead, and you're gonna have to act like it wasn't a ridiculous statement. Go.
01:14:22 Speaker_02
OK, I can. I understand that. I get where you're coming from.
01:14:28 Speaker_00
Oh, OK.
01:14:29 Speaker_02
Shout out to Mike Tyson there.
01:14:30 Speaker_00
Fuck the legend. All right. That does it for week 11 recap brought to you by Burger King.
01:14:36 Speaker_02
All right. Now let's move along to no dumb questions to close out the show with some no dumb questions, because there's no such thing as dumb questions. 92 percenters, just two dumb asses trying to figure it out.
01:14:48 Speaker_02
No Dumb Questions is brought to you by Mint Mobile. How about it, man? All right, we're going to answer some not dumb questions from our Heights Hotline voicemails today.
01:14:58 Speaker_01
How about it, man? Heights Hotline is hot. It's a hot hotline.
01:15:02 Speaker_02
Next call on the Heights Hotline. What do you got for us?
01:15:06 Speaker_05
Hi, guys. My name's Ashley and I'm a big fan of the podcast. But when we see other 92 percenters out in the wild, what are we supposed to do? You know, like for eagles, we say, like, go birds or choose, you know.
01:15:23 Speaker_05
But what do we say when we see a fellow 92 percenter out in the wild? You know, I wouldn't be yelling anything at all.
01:15:33 Speaker_00
I like this.
01:15:33 Speaker_05
Should it be something, you know, profane? I'm not sure. Anyway, I would love to know. Bye.
01:15:40 Speaker_02
Thank you, Ashley, for calling in on the Highline. Yeah, thank you very much. I don't think that's a dumb question at all.
01:15:45 Speaker_00
I think this is an awesome question.
01:15:47 Speaker_02
Yeah, I have not pondered. So, Jason, I don't know about you, but whenever I'm out and about, I do get random calls and shout outs from the 92 percenters.
01:15:56 Speaker_00
No doubt.
01:15:57 Speaker_02
The real ones listening in every single week. I'll always get a good. Get that one. That's a fucking that's like a fuck. Yeah, that's a that's a calling for all the 92 percenters to unite right there. And then, uh, profound. Is that what she said?
01:16:16 Speaker_02
She wants one that's profound.
01:16:17 Speaker_00
Profane is what she said, asking if we should have a swear word in there, which, listen, I'm all usually I'm all for.
01:16:23 Speaker_02
profanity, but this is a yell out fornication, fornicating. I think that'll get, that'll get everyone to be like, wait, what? I only know one guy that really talks about that on a weekly basis.
01:16:36 Speaker_00
We're going to be in a public setting. We should probably limit the profanity. Um, I just yelled Jumanji instead of somebody put Jumanji on.
01:16:49 Speaker_00
You know, for some reason, when I thought of right away, so New Heights is obviously an ode to Cleveland Heights, where we grew up.
01:16:54 Speaker_02
The Heights, baby.
01:16:55 Speaker_00
What do Heights, no matter what, like class you're from. Heights High! Heights High! Heights High! Like, that's the international Heights High greeting. Yeah. Can we bring that to New Heights?
01:17:10 Speaker_02
New Heights! New Heights! Or should we just do Heights High? I think New News is probably the best one.
01:17:16 Speaker_00
Well, new news is definitely the one that everybody goes, but- New news always does it. How about you guys send us some recommendations? How do you guys greet each other out in public? Not just us, what do you guys say to each other?
01:17:27 Speaker_00
What are the first things you bond over when you see somebody wearing some new Heights Apparel or somebody you know that watches the show? That's a tough one to answer for us. And I don't know that we have the- Credentials.
01:17:38 Speaker_00
Yeah, the power to make such an audacious decision for our fan base.
01:17:46 Speaker_02
There we go. Why don't we get another one?
01:17:48 Speaker_07
He hit us with another one that Hey, guys, hoping you can answer a question that's causing a bit of a disagreement between me and the wife. Okay, when is the earliest appropriate time to put up the Christmas tree?
01:17:59 Speaker_07
Am I being a complete scrooge by saying we should wait at least until after Thanksgiving? Thank you and go birds.
01:18:06 Speaker_00
I think Thanksgiving has always been the the date in the Kelsey household.
01:18:10 Speaker_02
Thanksgiving was the day
01:18:12 Speaker_00
Yeah, I mean, preferably you put it up on Christmas Day. I really we never stay true to this.
01:18:17 Speaker_02
Put it up on Christmas.
01:18:19 Speaker_00
All right, Thanksgiving. Sorry. On Thanksgiving Day. So I like the tradition. We have never done this in our house, but maybe we actually will get it done this year. Where after Thanksgiving is over, you put the Christmas tree up. I like that tradition.
01:18:32 Speaker_00
I think that that's a good one. You know, Thanksgiving is really the start of Christmas season.
01:18:36 Speaker_02
We would have the Christmas tree already up, though.
01:18:39 Speaker_00
No, but you got the Christmas tree. You've bought it already, but it hasn't been put up. Right. Maybe you buy it, you know, the day I'm pretty sure we put it up.
01:18:46 Speaker_02
Yeah. It's like a few days before. And then the ornaments and you dress, you dress, you dress. That's a Kelsey question.
01:18:52 Speaker_00
Thanksgiving is definitely to me the pinnacle like day that you're really that that's the start of Christmas season. I sit here advertising Christmas album.
01:19:02 Speaker_02
I'm also I'm also not trying to see Christmas lights in the beginning of November. You know, I just don't don't kind of with you. Don't do that to me.
01:19:12 Speaker_00
Don't ruin Thanksgiving. Don't, yeah. Let Thanksgiving be its own thing. Let it be. It's lead up. It's beautiful day. You have Halloween, Thanksgiving, and then right after Thanksgiving, I mean, the moment that turkey goes down your gullet.
01:19:24 Speaker_02
Parents get to force their kids to eat stuff that they don't want to teach them lessons in life, to be thankful. Let Thanksgiving be its own day.
01:19:34 Speaker_06
Hey, Jason and Travis, this is Lisa from Akron, Ohio. As people and love your show. My relationship question for you. Oh, they want to hear from the ladies, men who don't love to do chores.
01:19:48 Speaker_06
And I told them when they're older, they're going to have to be doing them around the house anyways. So I wondered, what chores did you do growing up around the house? And do you do them now as an adult?
01:20:03 Speaker_02
Oh, man, I don't know. Well, you got to understand, you know, you got to understand you. I mean, you know, yes, I did do chores. So I started off as a child having to do chores.
01:20:16 Speaker_02
I feel like that's very good, important lessons that I learned from mom and dad. We've both expressed the stuff that our father used to have us do in spreading mulch outside, cutting the grass with a
01:20:30 Speaker_02
with just a blade lawnmower, engineless lawnmower, raking leaves, you know, that was all the outside stuff that dad didn't want us to do.
01:20:38 Speaker_00
Yeah.
01:20:38 Speaker_02
Vacuuming.
01:20:39 Speaker_00
We never really did the trash.
01:20:42 Speaker_02
No, no. Because yeah. Big Ed, he was always up early. He was the first one up. He was always the one taking trash out.
01:20:48 Speaker_00
And mom did do our laundry too, which shout out to mom. I wish mom kind of made us to her laundry because I'm awful doing laundry.
01:20:55 Speaker_02
It's not that hard, Jason.
01:20:56 Speaker_00
It's I know I just suck. It really isn't that hard at all.
01:20:59 Speaker_02
Every now and then I'll get into it. But I say that I did it at a younger age because now I just you know, I'm so busy. And I like naps. There's so many services that just do things better than me. They fold better, push it away better.
01:21:17 Speaker_02
You know, it's just, everything's just way more organized when I'm not doing that. Not that I can't do it because mom taught us very valuable lessons in being able to do this on our own if we needed. And there's times where, you know,
01:21:33 Speaker_00
The one thing Kylie makes me do is trash. That is firmly my job.
01:21:43 Speaker_02
Nice.
01:21:44 Speaker_00
And I suck at it. I miss it all the time because we're traveling right now, but I try to really stay on top of the trash, taking the trash down. and embracing that.
01:21:53 Speaker_00
Not that I like I'm trying to do the dishes all the time, but I've done them occasionally. Kylie hates when I do the dishes. Why? She just has OCD about getting all the food off the plate before you put it in the dishwasher.
01:22:03 Speaker_00
And the dishwasher instructions clearly state to not do that, to like put it in the dishwasher, like it gets cleaner without doing that.
01:22:11 Speaker_02
So really it gets cleaner without doing that.
01:22:13 Speaker_00
I'm just saying what the instructions say.
01:22:16 Speaker_02
That's why that's how they sell you. That's how they get you.
01:22:18 Speaker_00
That's what it says. It says somehow like using soap and scrubbing it off first and then putting it in there for some reason. Like, I don't know why, but that's what they say. Oh, God, he's getting mad at me right now.
01:22:32 Speaker_00
She's got OCD about cleaning stuff that I can't really stop fucking exposing me.
01:22:39 Speaker_02
All right, well, keep your hands off the dishes, Jason.
01:22:41 Speaker_00
Fine, I won't do the dishes.
01:22:46 Speaker_02
Yeah, no, you should do your chores if your parents tell you to do your chores. And for all of you that don't live with your parents now and have a fucking messy house, figure it out.
01:22:56 Speaker_00
Oh, beautiful boots. Oh, beautiful gloves. Oh, look at your hat. Sorry about that. I was getting shown a pair of new boots, new gloves and hats. Trevor, you frozen?

01:24:35 Speaker_00
This is how they do it. Serving size, one tablespoon. Do you know how many tablespoons of mayonnaise that woman just ate?
01:24:40 Speaker_02
I don't know what you're even trying to find.
01:24:42 Speaker_00
servings and then servings per container. A tablespoon of mayonnaise is 90 calories. So you're just trying to figure out that's a tablespoon.
01:24:53 Speaker_02
That woman, I mean, grams of fat in one table.
01:24:57 Speaker_00
That's what I'm saying.
01:24:58 Speaker_02
This woman just had what I'm trying to say. There's no way you can digest that much fat.
01:25:06 Speaker_00
So she had 2000 in 52 grams of fat in one jar. 252 servings times 10 grams is 2,520 grams of fat per jar. She ate five of them. That woman had 12,600 grams of fat in three minutes.
01:25:29 Speaker_02
I'm good with aioli.
01:25:30 Speaker_00
It's the exact same thing. I don't know how you can't get over this.
01:25:33 Speaker_02
No, it's a different taste.
01:25:34 Speaker_00
What is mayonnaise? Can we Google that real quick? God damn it, no. Do you think they got any mayonnaise in Moana too?
