If you only knew the power of the dark side. This is After Hours with Amy Lawrence. Coming up, it will be my first birthday as a married woman and as luck would have it, I don't really believe in luck but I'm using my air quotations, as luck would have it, the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra is doing a performance of Return of the Jedi on my birthday weekend. One of the chances that the Hubs gets some ideas in his head, now see the thing is he listens to the show. It's okay babe, whatever you have planned is going to be amazing, I'm just saying that's an option. I know Bob, he's got them already. You know Bob, he might actually, he's suspiciously not mentioned my birthday at all so I would think that something is going on or he's thinking about it because he hasn't even mentioned it and we're just a few weeks out.

Yeah he's plotting, he's scheming something. I shouldn't say a few weeks, I should say it's exactly a month from Thursday and actually what we found out is that his oldest son is getting married this year. His fiance has the same birthday as me so now there are going to be two of us in the family with the same birthday and yeah we're really a lot alike too which explains a lot so the birthday is on the horizon. My first as a married woman, interesting, in fact this time last year we were just starting to get to the point where we thought this could be something because, this is kind of cool, on Wednesday, so if you're already awake on your Thursday it would be yesterday but Wednesday March 6th was my one year anniversary of my last first date, does that make sense? You go on first dates, for me it was years and years and years and years and years and years and years of first dates and honestly more first dates than second dates because, man dating stinks, it really does, it stinks a lot of the time, sorry to be so discouraging.

The thing is you don't need a million options, you just need one if you want to get married and you want to find your partner in life, you don't need them all to work out, you just need one. Well a year ago Wednesday was my last first date and if you haven't seen my post on twitter we went fishing because that's what Bob loves to do and I kept dropping my fishing pole to take photos of what was a glorious sunset. It turned out that the photos were just as dynamic as the date and so one year later it's kind of fun to look back on that and Jay both of us actually bought a gift for the other to remember to kind of memorialize this particular date and it's really cool, I'd have to take a picture maybe, I don't know if I would share it publicly but there's this company that does little plaques with the longitude and latitude of an event or a location and then they write the date and they write the location with the coordinates and they print out the map where that location is right in the middle with a little heart in our case and they frame it, they put it in a hard plastic frame and he got our pond where we went fishing memorialized in this really cool plaque. I actually, well I bought him a two part gift and the first part showed up on Wednesday so the second part, I can't, I have to be careful what I say, the second part should be arriving on Thursday but the first part is a sign and these are his two favorite things in the world, probably even more than me, gone hunting and when I return I'll be gone fishing so those are his two favorite outdoor activities in addition to hiking and so we each bought each other a bit of a memento of the first ever fishing date in my life and my last ever first date. That was unplanned?

The fishing? No, the buying each other a memento for the day? Oh yeah, I mean I didn't know he did anything and he didn't know I did anything and so we each were able to surprise each other, yeah we enjoy doing that, it's kind of fun. Honestly, between you and me and the Fence Post, I think we enjoy trying to outdo each other. Well that's good. Because for Valentine's Day we bought each other two cards a piece.

Two cards? What are you going to do, three next year? No, this is the first time, stop it, we're allowed to be all excited about our first Valentine's Day as newlyweds. Oh gosh, we haven't even gotten to the honeymoon yet right so we still have a lot of fun stuff on the horizon but we do have a countdown. We are now just over 50 days. 50 days. 50 days, just over 50 days to the honeymoon. It's going to fly. Oh, oh, I thought you meant- The time. Yeah, I'm sorry, I thought you meant- It's going to go slow and quick at the same time.

It's going to be like until those days it'll be like, oh come on, come on, then it'll be like, oh my gosh, I'm leaving in two days. I thought you were asking me if we were going to fly to Hawaii and I was thinking as opposed to taking a boat. Swim, maybe? Swim the Pacific. It's possible, I suppose.

No, it's not possible. Oh my gosh, yeah, that's coming up. We need to start now, actually. It's After Hours with Amy Lawrence on CBS Sports Radio. I'm so happy that you all enjoyed the conversation with Matt the musher. I know some of you don't agree with dog sledding and dog racing and that's okay, that's certainly your prerogative but I know Matt and I know what he's told me about the sport. They care about the dogs more than they care about anything else. They're committed to the dogs. These dogs are treated very well, well I can't speak for every kennel and every team of course, but they're trained, they're cared for. I know Matt, his family and the kennels he works with, he's a nurse for heaven's sakes.

He's into life saving. He's not into taking advantage of people or dogs. He loves the dogs, like loves them. In our personal conversations, the videos and photos that he shares, I know that he absolutely adores the dogs and they're the most important thing to him. This is a sport certainly that can be grueling and can be brutal and can be dangerous and in some cases can even be one that causes injury or loss of life to the animals and to the people actually. But that is worst case scenario and they do everything they can to prevent it to the point where they even airlift dogs out of there.

They don't airlift people, they airlift dogs out of there so that they can get proper care if they're injured along the way. It's After Hours with Amy Lawrence. On the Facebook page, we've got the link so that you can see Matt on YouTube come Monday. He's a hoot and actually I don't know if he's allowed to use choice language. He's out in the middle of a trail or out in the middle of winter. Not only does he look funny because it's so cold and snowy and icy, but he also uses some choice language. So I'm not sure if that's allowed on the YouTube channel, but be forewarned and he's just so much fun. He has a great sense of humor and of course we've developed quite a relationship with him. So that link is on our Facebook page and also you can find his page too if you want to go directly there. On Twitter, ALawRadio, thanks for all your reaction.

And our phone number is 855-212-4227, that's 855-212-4CBS. Coming up this hour, Dave Canales had a really cool interview with Kay Adams, so former NFL Network morning host. She now has her own show up in Adams, very popular. Lots of great connections in the NFL and Dave Canales was asked not only about Bryce Young but also about a possible reunion with Russell Wilson he's worked with before, so we'll get his answer. Joe Flacco talks about a possible return to Cleveland and in addition to that, Aaron Rodgers has resurfaced. I don't know where he's been, I have no idea, I just know that he's still Aaron Rodgers.

Oh, and forget Aaron Rodgers, George Brett, like you've never heard him before, Jay and I are flabbergasted, like we don't understand, we just don't understand. And he takes it so seriously too, I can't give it away, no you're just kidding, no he's not kidding. Yeah, this is not like his idea of humor, he's being dead serious. Very serious, yeah.

Right, okay. So anyway, I don't want to give it away, that's all coming up before the end of the show as we get into the second hour here, we'll do a little bit on baseball. We started out with some basketball with the pro style in college hoops, couple of really emotional moments from Wednesday that we wanted to share with you. So yeah, good stuff as we head through these next couple hours. I would say that right now the top stories are still building toward what is coming on the horizon for the NFL and that's legal tampering to start next week, that's when teams can finally, officially, out in the open, not under cover of night, negotiate with potential free agents, right? So the guys that are likely to hit free agency may not I suppose if they agree to terms to stay where they are, but in the final couple days of the 2023-24 league year, teams can talk to players that are still officially on other teams' rosters, which of course during the season and any other time of the year is tampering. That leads us right into the official start of the league year, which is middle of next week.

Oh of course, right when we're getting ready to go into March Madness. I swear the NFL does it on purpose. Anyway, teams are now going through major salary dumps. I mean that's what's happening right now and if you're a member of Bill's Mafia, well you saw the headlines on Wednesday, some big names that were released because the Bills had a major salary cap problem, even with the extra 30 plus million.

Two captains in Jordan Poyer on the defensive side, the longtime safety, the former All-Pro and Pro Bowl safety, as well as center Mitch Morse, who is a captain on the offensive side. Cornerback Tredavious White as well, they had also released their running back and returner Naim Hines, I mean these big moves are saving them about 26 million dollars under the cap, but it definitely feels like, would you say an end of an era, maybe not that drastic, but it feels like a major turning of the corner for the Buffalo Bills. In fact, Tredavious White was a draft pick of Sean McDermott, so you're talking about a guy who came in with Sean and is now a salary cap casualty, we'll see what the Bills are able to do moving forward, but I'm a big fan of Jordan Poyer, his leadership, his intensity, I think he's clever, he's a crafty, savvy veteran and so I'll be interested to see where he pops up. I know that he is 32, he ended up going back to the Bills last year and to me, it's going to be really weird to see the end of kind of the one-two punch there in that backfield with Poyer and Micah Hyde. Micah Hyde's also about to become a free agent and so it does feel like a change in the guard, if nothing else, I'm using some of my cliches, my sports cliches, end of an era, changing of a guard, here's Ian Rappaport on more of this Bills situation. The Buffalo Bills were over the cap by a lot, by tens of millions of dollars, about 40 million dollars a little more over the cap, still working to get there, but they had to make the kind of painful decisions that very good teams with a lot of high-priced good players have to make eventually. If you want to keep this going, if you want to remain in the playoffs, you want to do it with a quarterback, it's getting paid a lot of money, you've got to make some tough choices and cut some respected veterans. Except they brought back Mitch Stravinsky, they've re-signed Mitch, remember Mitch was released by the Pittsburgh Steelers, a couple of years there, he had a couple of opportunities but lost a starting job to Kenny Pickett and then they both lost their jobs to Mason Rudolph who they would like to bring back. So Pickett and Rudolph maybe, we'll see if they go with another quarterback, well they will have to go with another quarterback to round out their room, but it won't be Stravinsky, he is headed back to Buffalo. So that's kind of interesting, but that's one where he is familiar and comfortable and could back up Josh Allen. It's crazy how cyclical life in professional sports can be, right? Last year it was Kyle Allen who backed up Josh Allen, but he's also set for free agency.

So just a ton of movement already, and we haven't even gotten to that legal tampering period, and of course the projected or potential movement among quarterbacks could be ground shaking in the NFL, but I'm kind of waiting, I feel like we at this point last year had at least some of the answers, but right now we have zero answers about what's to come. It's after hours here on CBS Sports Radio, let's talk to Jesse who's in Wisconsin, Jesse welcome to the show. Hey, how's it going? Good, thank you. Congratulations on the marriage. Oh, I appreciate that, thank you. So being in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, I grew up in Tampa Bay, buccaneer sand. How? Honestly, I couldn't tell you, I have no idea.

Mike Austin, Mike Austin I think. There you go, my gosh. So what's Tampa going to do this year, how's their season going to turn out? Yeah, I actually love their defense right there, they've got to either replace some veterans or resign some veterans, the defense is really good under Todd Bowles once they found their footing last season, and then if they can get Baker back for a second year that keeps them consistent, they already re-signed Mike Evans, I know again they've got some other pieces that they have to deal with, but to not have to change again at quarterback would be huge because they went from Tom Brady to Baker Mayfield. If they go with a third quarterback in three years, it's just a lot of upheaval, constant change in sports equals constant losing, so I hope they can build on what they did last season. But yeah, I like that Todd Bowles has quietly found himself a new home in the NFL where he's really tumultuous with the Jets, but man, he's been good in taking over for Bruce Arians. I agree, what do you think they do in the draft?

That's a good question. I saw what, Pullman, the wide receiver? I mean I wouldn't be surprised if they add to their weapons, sure, obviously they had a couple injuries at wide receiver last year, but certainly could grab some more depth. I wouldn't, not that they're going to do this early on, but also they've got to figure out what they want to do to replace some of the veterans, the defensive veterans too, so we'll see.

I think again, they're in a good spot, I think they have the core building blocks in place and I just hope they're able to find a little more pop for the offense outside of Mike Evans and Chris Godwin because remember last year, at the end of last year, even when they made the playoffs, they still were kind of scuffling along offensively. Right, right. Well I appreciate it. Have a good night.

I listen every night on my way home, so keep rocking on. Alright, Jesse, good to talk to you. Bucks fans in Wisconsin, thank you so much for calling.

855-212-4227, that's our toll free line. Yeah, if you think about the Milwaukee Bucks, I knew I was going to do that, if you think about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, they're not the Bucks, the Buccaneers, their off season, the big move of course, the first thing anyway, was that they had to re-sign Mike Evans, which they've done. Now obviously, they're trying to shore up Baker Mayfield and I do think that Baker wants to go back there, as much as it's a smart business move for him and his team to take meetings with other franchises, so I've heard Atlanta, which I think is crazy, but I mean Atlanta would be dumb not to at least investigate the option, I'd even heard the Patriots, but I'd heard that it was low on his list to go to New England, that he would maybe take a New England meeting if some of these others didn't pan out. But it's smart because Baker and his team want to try to drum up extra money, they want the Buccaneers to give him a commensurate offer, I don't think they're going to pay him $40 million a year, and I don't think any team's going to pay him $40 million a year.

I could be wrong, but I can't imagine. So if all things are equal, and you can milk a little more money out of the Buccaneers because they're afraid of losing you somewhere else, and they want to make sure that you stay home, well then, that's huge, right? And to not have a third quarterback in three years, I think is a big deal. So you got other names though, like Lavonte David and Devin White, in terms of free agency, again, so if you're not going to keep these guys, then you're going to have to find a way to replace them with cheaper options.

But yeah, it's tough, thinking about, I'm trying to think about some of the other ones too. Antoine Winfield is another name that I know I've heard in terms of free agency. And so you are looking at not just veterans, but leaders in your locker room. They do have some question marks, they have a bunch of guys that they need to either pay or they need to replace one of the others. And that's kind of how this NFL that we love so much can turn upside down in the course of a year. Free agency has changed so much. We know that half the playoff field turns over every year, we saw it again this season. And so when you've got guys who are used to winning, they don't want to take less money, maybe they're later in their careers, they feel like it's maybe their last big free agent deal, well then yeah, they're likely to leave, even if they love where they are. And with the rosters changing every offseason, teams can go from worst to first. Teams can go from the toilet to the top.

After Hours with Amy Lawrence. Steve Ballmer made quite a stir when he was part of the groundbreaking or the ribbon cutting, can't remember which one it was, for the new Clippers arena. And he was standing on site yelling about toilets, yelling about the fact that they would have extra toilets in their brand new arena.

No one has ever gotten more excited about toilets than Steve Ballmer. Not the same enthusiasm from a baseball hall of Famer, but I was relatively intrigued and also taken aback to hear George Brett in an interview with KCTV5 in Kansas City about a memory from the old Yankee stadium before the new one was opened up. I remember when they took down Yankee stadium, friend of mine was vice president of the Yankees back then, Arthur Richmond.

And I called him, I said, Arthur, I'll pay for this. I want someone to go in there before they demolish that stadium and go get a urinal out of Yankee, out of the Yankee stadium locker room. The one that Babe Ruth went to the bathroom and the one that Lou Gehrig, the one that Reggie, I want one of those in my house and he couldn't get it for me. But how great would that be to have Babe Ruth's urinal in your house right now?

I don't know. I'm a chick, so I don't use a urinal. Jay, this one's for you. How cool would it have been to secure a urinal from Babe Ruth's days and have it in your house? That's disgusting.

I don't understand. Of all the memorabilia you could have from Babe Ruth, you're a hall of Famer and what you want is the receptacle that he peed in? That's one of the grossest things I've heard. To put that in your own house, one, I don't know many households that have a urinal in it. How do you put that in it? Apparently it's something that George Brett ascribes to is a urinal in his household.

It's going to stink. But also like where would you put it? You hang it on the wall? You'd have to, right?

Or just kind of unless you just prop it up somewhere. You bring in a contractor and you have him take out part of your wall so that he can install the Babe Ruth urinal? If you want it to be functional and like flush and not just stink and be disgusting, which it'll be anyway, but yeah, you'd have to, right? You'd have to cut down the whole wall, fix the plumbing. It's a whole operation to get that urinal up in the wall.

I don't know. I've never been to a house that has a urinal in it ever. Right. The only place you see urinals generally are public bathrooms. Public bathrooms like stadiums. Now again, girls don't have urinals in their bathrooms, at least not that I've ever encountered.

However, when I was in seventh grade, my mom was a teacher at our school and another friend of mine who also was there early because her father was the principal. We were really curious. We'd never seen a boy's bathroom before.

And so we thought we were in the clear. There's nobody else in the building. It was quiet. It was like an hour before school started. We decided we would just check out the boy's bathroom and see what it looked like.

Can I tell you the truth? We didn't even know what those things were. They were hanging on the wall. We had no idea what they were. Toilets! Well, right. So we couldn't figure out why the toilet looked like that and why it was hanging on the wall like that. Anyway, after a brief discussion about it, we decided, well, we better get out of there. As we start toward the door, the 80 year old French teacher walks in and nearly has a heart attack.

Oh yes. We got in so much trouble. He was, he was just floored and he was flummoxed and he started, he started stuttering and yelling. He got red in the face. He was really upset that there were two young girls in a men's bathroom. And so, yeah, we got in so much trouble, detention and all that jazz because the French teacher, we nearly caused him to have a, you know, cardiac arrest. He snitched.

What? He snitched. Well, he did, but also, I mean, he, he got very upset. His face turned red.

He was one of those older gentlemen with big white bushy eyebrows. Yeah. Another kind. Uh huh. So we, we didn't get away with it and still we couldn't ask him what those things were on the wall because he was so upset.

Yeah. We had to, we didn't have the internet back then, so we had to ask someone else. I'm pretty sure we asked mom what those things were. Anyway, urinals can be a little bit, they can be a little bit icky. You gotta buy like cakes for them.

You have to buy what for them? Urinal cakes. Cakes?

Yeah. Well, it's not as like it sounds. They go, they sit like in the urinal, so they collect like the liquids and smells and they're disgusting like machines. No! Why are we talking about this?

I don't know why you would want one in your house. It's so gross. Why George Brett? Why George Brett? Why?

Uh, he goes on KCTV5, uh, because if they end up demolishing Kaufman Stadium, there's just one thing he wants. I grew up in locker rooms my whole life. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. And when I built this house, I have a urinal. In fact, we have five of them in this house.

What? I'm gonna exchange one and I want to get a urinal out of royalty and put it in my house. All right, he says urinal. That's the only thing I want. I don't want a seat. I just want a urinal.

Wait, can we hear it again? Five urinals in his house? Urinals? I grew up in locker rooms my whole life. And when I built this house, I have a urinal.

In fact, we have five of them in this house. I'm gonna exchange one and I want to get a urinal out of Royal Stadium. A urinal. And put it in my house. That's the only thing I want.

I don't want a seat. Who is he exchanging it with? I just, I don't get it. Who wants George Brett's used urinal from his house? Like, who's like, I'll hear it. Okay, just one other person. All I'm asking, is there anyone else out there listening who has a urinal, urinal, in his or her home? He's got five in his house? His poor wife. I hope he has someone to clean those puppies. I can't even talk about the cake thing that you just.

Anyway, anyone else listening? That's it. I just need one person out there who actually has a home that you built with a urinal. Or that you purchased with a urinal. I don't want a seat. I'm assuming he doesn't mean seat to the toilet, but he means seat from the stadium. They're not all that, I mean, they're functional part of the time, I suppose, but why can't you just use a toilet? Well, if it's yours, you could do whatever you want with it, right? I don't want to get too graphic.

What if you use it as a planter? Yeah. Have you ever seen that?

Yes. I one time took a, well, I had to replace a toilet in a condo. And my mom and her husband, they were the, well, my mom's husband was the one that replaced it. And he takes it out and he puts it on the front lawn. Well, you can't leave it there. Oh, just use it as a planter.

I was like, I don't live in, okay, I'm not going to insult anyone. I don't, I know that I don't live out in the country where I'm going to use a urinal or a toilet as a planter, but I suppose George Brett could get away with anything. Just one person.

That's all I'm asking. Five, five, two, one, two, four, two, two, seven, do you have a urinal in your home? I don't, I couldn't imagine anyone wanting one. Do you want, do you want a urinal in your home? They don't do anything for you that you'd be like, oh yeah, like this is why I have a urinal over a toilet. Like this is the reason. There's no reason other than I'm nuts. Well, it's easier, but it's theoretically, but it's, it's also gross. It's just gross.

It's the closest thing and this is coming from a dude. So anybody out there, find me on Twitter, a law radio, also on our Facebook page after hours with Amy Lawrence, I just need one person who would cop to having a urinal or maybe George Brett is singing your song. Maybe that's the same thing you want from Yankee stadium. The urinal that Babe Ruth peed in, but how great would that be to have Babe Ruth's urinal in your house? It would not be great at all. Wouldn't you rather have his bat?

I mean, maybe not if you're George Brett because you were a world-class hitter yourself, but why that? See, I'm a visual person. I don't need any of these images. I don't. He asked someone to go ask for that urinal. The vice president of Yankees. He didn't do it himself, so he knew it was like a bit of a weird request, I would tell, I would guess.

It was a stretch. How do you ask that? Hey, Mike, can we, that urinal on the wall there, can I have it for George Brett? What's the response? What's the, how do you get it off? How do you exchange it?

How do you? Well, if you're demolishing the stadium, I can understand that they're getting, they're probably doing a sale of a lot, well, I don't know, the Yankees sell things. Maybe they allow their employees to come in and take things.

You wouldn't think that the urinal would be a popular item. So maybe George Brett just thought he'd get it for free before they put it out on the curb. Or maybe that's just in my neighborhood to put it out on the curb. True.

If they're going to put it on the curb, I guess just give it to them anyway, right? Right. Right. Oh my gosh. All right then. George Brett's private life from KC TV five. Also that's way TMI.

He was so serious. It's one thing, just out of curiosity, because you brought this to me before the show. How did you come across George Brett expounding poetically on the value of urinals?

This is where I'm a little concerned about my algorithm on X, because I didn't search for this. I didn't see a headline. I didn't see anything. I literally just refreshed the page and there it was. George Brett talking about Babe Ruth's urinal and how he wants it. And if they demolish Kaufman Stadium, he wants a urinal, not a seat. I was like, what is this?

Where did this come from? And yeah, that's what he did. That's what George Brett did yesterday. Interesting. To a point now, I just don't, I wish I didn't know about Babe Ruth having a urinal and George Brett wanting it. I didn't know they had urinals back then.

I mean, whether it's a trash can or a bucket or an actual apparatus on the wall, what's the difference? Why did you do this to me? Our phone lines are lighting up. I'm getting a little concerned.

No, I need to know if there's anybody out there who has a urinal hanging on the wall in their home. I need to hear it. A-LOL radio, we were just talking about first dates and glorious sunsets and now we're on Peapots.

You are listening to the After Hours Podcast. Oh, should we start this show? Yeah, I'm down. Just buying a car and carbona first. Oh, for real? Yeah, it's super convenient.

If they, if they demolish that stadium, I promise you I'm going to go there in the middle of the night with the guy that built this house and I'm going to say, come on, we got to figure out how to get one of these things out of here.

This is After Hours with Amy Lawrence. George Brick gets so excited talking about urinals and if Coffin Stadium gets demolished, gets replaced, he wants one of the Royals urinals. Having failed in his attempt to get one of the urinals from the old Yankee Stadium that Babe Ruth would have peed in.

Just a bunch of your reaction on social media, on Twitter, ALawRadio. Pax says, yes, I want one. My wife said, no. He goes on, it would be in the man cave bathroom. What better way to feel like a true man cave?

That's interesting. I didn't know all man caves had bathrooms. In fact, my new husband, he's not really getting a cave all to himself, but he's getting a nook.

This is the most we have in my smaller house, only 1,300 square feet. We've got a spare bedroom that has kind of a wing off the side of it. He's getting this nook, antlers if he wants, paintings of deer, signage, his own TV, a recliner. Thank God there is no room for a urinal in the bathroom that's closest to his man nook. I call it a man nook on purpose just to make him blanch because it's not really a cave.

But if he wants to hang a blanket over the, make it a fort, he can if he wants to. Let's see, also on Twitter, Dew says, having anything in your home that was used by Babe Ruth would be cool. A urinal wouldn't be my first choice, but I'd probably still be interested. Oh, heavens.

Justice finds us on Twitter. Dion Sanders, I believe, has urinals in his homes, homes. Let's see, Elaine says, oh, my gosh, with the urinal, let alone the guy has five, made you snort.

Yes, yes, it did. 855-212-4227, that's our toll free line. All right, we asked, you are responding. Billy is in Baltimore. Billy, let me hear it. Billy. Am I on?

You're on, sir. Are you Billy in Baltimore? Oh, this is Bert. I'm sorry. Oh, no. Okay.

Hi, Bert in Baltimore. So before I touch on the main topic, I wanted to follow up to see if you've tried to sell hubby on the fact that Jay is coming on your honeymoon to do a show. Oh, yeah. No, see, here's the thing. I haven't dropped that on him yet. I still have about 55 days to work on that. All right.

All right. So the urinal thing, something I had never thought of, but a friend of mine in 2005, Steve Benjamin came in second in the world series of poker, and he's an accountant who won over $4 million. Whoa.

He banked all of it except for $30,000. He turned his basement into a poker playing man cave with a fully decked out bathroom. Okay.

12 different sprayers in a shower from every direction, the ceiling, the floor, blah, blah, blah. So I get invited over to play cards at the unveiling. Have to take a leak.

Excuse my language. I walked into the bathroom and the first thing I see on the left is a urinal. And I thought it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen when speaking to a man married for 22 years. You know what his wife never has to do? Tell him to put the seat down. Well, I hope after 20 years, she doesn't have to do that anymore. She never has to clean up any of his mess because there's no way to miss when there's an urinal on the wall. Well, married for a few more years, you might even want one.

No, because it's only two months in and he already knows that if the seat is left up, we've got problems. There are hills I'm prepared to die on and that's one of them. But also producer Jay is nodding while he's shaking his head vociferously. He says it's not true that you can't make a mess with that apparatus. Fair enough. Well, you guys have a great night, love the show. All right. Thank you, Billy. Oh, I'm sorry. Bert in Baltimore. Great, Jay.

You disagree with it, man. You got his name wrong. If I say Billy and I say it three times and you say yes, your name's Billy at that point. Tim finds me on Twitter and says he'd love to have one. Okay, I guess we struck a gold mine here. Wait, there was someone on Facebook too as well.

Hold on. I just saw it about urinals and man caves and I guess that's the thing. If it's your own space and you can turn it into whatever you like. Scott says he has a urinal in his house for his man cave. Wow, these are pretty extensive man caves. See, these are all in man caves, meaning like they're a novelty because it's not actually a realistic item to have in your house to go to the bathroom. Let's just say your guest bathroom on the main floor. So if you do have a guest bathroom, I happen to have two bathrooms in my house. One's on the main floor for visitors and I can't imagine having a urinal in there. Embarrassing. Thank you, Jay.

Greg says seems a urinal would be easier to keep clean. No, no, it's gross. No, no. Let's see.

855-212-4227. Brandon is in Michigan. Brandon, what do you think? Hey, Amy. Love the show.

Thank you. So I got a buddy that he does his own mechanic work on the side and he has a half bath off his bathroom that has the actual urinal in it. He says it's just easier for him to get in there, do what he needs to do and get out.

So I mean, I guess I can understand that. Okay, so then he's got a bathroom, like a real bathroom that he shares with his family and then he's got another half bath off that bathroom? It's the half bath is off the garage.

It's easy for him to get in real quick, you know? Gotcha. Gotcha. So I was telling James, I actually run a home inspection business and I see urinals all the time in houses.

Really? It's not uncommon and it's kind of going off what you guys are saying. It's majority of time they're in man caves or basements.

Oh, okay. It's just a guy thing. They want urinals and they don't smell. Usually they don't smell. There are the waterless urinals, which they tend to stink a little bit, but the ones with the just the water and it's basically a toilet with no seat, right?

Just kind of upright. Interesting. Well, you know what this reminds me of?

Have you ever gone camping like in a trailer, a fifth wheel, something like that? Or even if you're on an airplane and you use one of their toilets, you're supposed to leave a little water above that, that flap that helps you flush because that's how you prevent the smell. So I can understand that the waterless ones might be a little. Yeah, they're, they're, they're not my, uh, my favorite, but hey, it's what people want, I guess.

Well, that's interesting that they're, they're usually confined to man caves. That tells you a little something about who makes the decisions in these homes, huh? Yeah. That's it too, right there. All right, Brandon. Thank you so much. Good to talk to you.

Love this show. Thank you. Thank you. All right. Let's quick get to Matt and Marilyn because we've got no joke. A minute, 15 seconds.

Go Matt. And I'm astonished that you cannot believe that someone would not install a urinal in their home. It's a man thing.

It's something you would not understand. That's true. And I'm happy about that. It's convenient. It's like you're peeing outside. It's great. No it's not. And it's, and it's more private. You don't, you don't splatter, you know, we don't have to be, have good aim like our wives and girlfriends insist that we do.

We don't have to worry about putting up the, the sheet or putting it down. Okay. So where's yours, Matt? There's many advantages to having a urinal. Where is yours? Where's mine?

Yes. In the bathroom. In the main, right off my bedroom. Main bathroom. You've got a regular toilet and you've got a urinal. Yeah.

And you can keep it cleaner. Uh huh. And did you put this in yourself or was it already there? Yes, I did. Wow.

Impressive. How does your wife like it? My third wife or fourth wife?

Any of the wives. No, no. For some reason they don't like it. Oh, I wonder.

If they can look down inside it or something. I don't know what the. Yeah.

I wonder why that is. All right, Matt. Well, thank you so much for that.

Thank you for your time. That insight. Oh yes.

Third or fourth wife. I'm wondering, is there a correlation there with the urinal? I'm not saying it. Jay is so freaked out right now. So freaked out. Could you imagine going to your mom and being like, hey, can we put in the urinal? No. No.

Or your sisters. Could you imagine? It's After Hours with Amy Lawrence, CBS Sports Radio. Old Man Winter here. If I had it my way, it would stay winter all year long, short days, wind chill, black ice and a good polar vortex.

Heaven. Wait, is it getting warm in here? Your cold snap is over, Old Man Winter. Spring has arrived.
