Live appearances. I'm just having side, I know we're back, I'm just having a side conversation with Tyrus. He was extorting me. Instead of, I just had a casual conversation, I just said it looks like you're taking the summer off because your first appearance. He said that my performances lately look like I took the summer off.

It was highly, highly offensive. Now do you think I would wait for the door to close and then say something like that? Yeah, as he kicked his soccer ball around. Right, I noticed you didn't want to kick it around with me. So like Jason Chaffins and guys like that with the soccer background will get up and play. Kennedy will play soccer with me. You didn't even effort, because you're a football guy.

Well not just that. Listen, my daughter plays soccer. What do you think? And I'm a fan of soccer now. I'm a soccer dad on top of other things. How old is she? She's 10.

So it's getting serious now, travel right? Yeah, she's on a traveling team and she usually plays in a defensive spot. But she's led her team in assists. So she's really good at, her nickname is Thunderfoot because she was one of the kids that could kick a goal from the other side of the goal.

Tall? Yeah, she's getting there. She didn't sprout like her brother, but she's starting to get there.

I noticed it the other day, like all my kids are taller than Dana and Greg. That's great. But you know the other thing, you know Dennis Rodman's daughter is one of the best players in the world.

She's on the national team. She's doing well. It's always nice to see, especially when, and I don't know the whole family dynamic, but you always like to see guys that you played with, their kids do well also. We never hear the good stories. It's always the sad stories of the kids that were neglected and didn't turn out well.

It's nice to hear like, oh, some of the people who took that career path and opened up doors for their kids too. Right, so Tyrus is here. You doing Guffield today? Yeah. Are you hosting? I mean from underneath.

Yeah, I host you underneath. When he's out, you're one of the guys, right? Yeah, when he's out, yeah. Is he going to be out there on any of this vacation, do you know?

Take vacations, you have to have like people to go see, right? I think Greg has gotten to the point between his insults of you and Waters. I think he's, and Lizau, I think he's running out of friends and places to go. And he didn't have a lot anyway. He wasn't starting with a pleasure, let's be honest. It's not like he's weeding him out. Yeah, it wasn't a cornucopia of destinations for him to go. But Tyrus, you arranged it through the roof. Yeah, we're definitely hitting our stride.

And number one in all of cable and demo. That means you got the next generation queued up. Yeah, gee, I wonder where that's coming from.

I don't know. You do relate to the younger folks. I do, yes. Kat does.

Greg, I think Greg relates to everybody in a weird, he's the uncle who always tells the joke that nobody wants to hear. You know what I mean? But he's going to tell it anyways. Oh, I've got to ask you too, before we leave the sports topic, how do you feel about Bronny James being drafted in the second round by the Lakers? I don't care.

This makes me laugh to myself every time. I'm a diehard Patriot fan. And I never once heard anyone crying about Belichick's son being promoted to defensive coordinator. You think he was the most qualified for that guy? Like, he got the job. What do you think?

How do you mean after Belichick left? No, no, no. I'm saying he was brought in and he was given a job by his dad, a high status job. Would he have gotten his fast somewhere else? Probably not. No way. The difference is, though, coaching is an opinion, an expression. So whether he was good or bad is indifferent. Where Bronny is, his dad got him a tryout or he got him in the door.

Okay, great. That's happened everywhere, in every situation, in every scenario, whether it's sports or whatever. It's just funny when it's, it seems like when LeBron or somebody of high status does what everyone else is doing, it makes me kind of snicker because he's still got to make shots in the basket. He's still got to, they're not going to keep him on the team. He'll get drafted.

How many guys get drafted every year that will never see the court? Yep. So, you know. Only two rounds, my goodness. It's two rounds plus a lot of guys in the summer league. So, you know, he has, he can play through the summer league. And let's say he has a horrible summer league, he can get cut.

I mean, that's the reality of it. I would personally, I'm not a basketball official now, but just looking, I would love to have seen him stay in college. And because he had that heart, a year ago today, he had that heart ailment.

The winner is going to play again. He gets on USC, worked his way back gradually and then goes pro. I just think he put a lot of pressure on himself rather than stay in Los Angeles, live it, you know, live near your dad and play for USC. Because it's not like he was hurting for the money. Yeah.

He's already making millions on NIL. And that's the thing that you worry about the kids today. You want, you have two thoughts on it. One you like to see because the school's taking in all the money and it's nice to see the kids are able to earn a little scroll on their name. The other side of it, though, is the amateur status of it is gone.

The purity of that, you know, these kids playing ball, but or student athlete, student athlete in general. No, it's a professional business now. So which I feel like there should be. Again, I see both sides of it. I feel like if it wasn't going to be monetary compensation, if you play, if you play for a school and especially a big school that makes a lot of money, you and your family should probably have free tuition.

I mean, they could have done things up until that point to make it more profitable for kids. But again, what's the difference now? Stay at USC, go to Lakers. The only difference is you only have to get up from basketball practice with the Lakers.

USC, you still got to go to school. So would you play with guys 20, 15 years older? Yeah. No, he's got, like I said, he'll probably be in the G League. We probably won't see much of them. Oh, really?

Okay. I think he'll be on the G League. For his development, I'd love it. Yeah, he's going to the G League.

He's not, he's not going to just sit in the bench all year and watch. He'll be in the G League. And if he does well in the G League, you'll see him pull up. Celtics did that with our first round draft pick last year. I think maybe he played maybe six games, but he was leading the G League and scoring and dunks. So, you know, and then you brought him up, they brought him up a little bit and apparently he did, he did so well that they put him on the playoff roster.

So that would be like a goal for Bronnie, I think. Isaiah Hardenstein, who has now got millions of dollars to go to Oklahoma, shine for the Knicks. He was the G League MVP. Yeah, exactly.

That's what I'm saying. So they kind of, the NBA, it's not the same NBA, like when Burton Magic played, where it's the NBA or nothing. So he's going to be in the G League probably two, two or three years unless he just exceeds expectations. But most of these second round draft picks are really being drafted for the G League. And J.J. Reddick, his coach, we'll see how he develops.

J.J., from every instance I've ever seen him work, seems to be a pretty straight up no-nonsense guy. So he's not going to sugarcoat it. And also, I think LeBron probably knows the level of his son's game and he's been playing this game for a long time. So if LeBron James is telling you to go, I think that's an off, because he's not, dad's not going to be able to play defense. Well, his dad doesn't play defense anyways. But his dad's not going to be able to go out there and play for him. He's going to have to play.

So that's, and Bronnie will make it? Sports is still the meritocracy, the only pure meritocracy. So in place you're not getting an argument.

Well, that's not true either. I'll tell you what, I think that you mirror my frustration when you see every network now realizing that Joe Biden's faltering and not all there and freezes up. And now all of a sudden they're realizing it. Here is Jake Tapper, of all people who spend most of his career just ripping Donald Trump.

Now he says this, cut 26. There is a pattern, discernible pattern of Democratic officials seemingly trying to convince you, the public, to not believe what you saw and what you heard with your eyes and with your ears on Thursday night. The spinning is all very reminiscent of the George Orwell quote from the book 1984 that I invoked five years ago for a different situation and a different president.

Your floor? Well, first, you're too late to the dance, Jake. It's nice to see you want to be a journalist now. That's what we've learned. First of all, we have a shadow government because we don't know who's running our country because it damn sure ain't Joe Biden. Is it Jill? Is it JPK?

Is it a combination? Is it the FBI? Who's running the Defense Department? We had the Defense Secretary disappear for three weeks and the president didn't know it and nobody knows. So we don't know who's doing what.

But we do see the policies and we see the reaction of it. So and now all of a sudden this. This is something that is laughable. This was not. Nobody was surprised. OK, I didn't get a text from you going. Did you see that? Nobody.

There was not one person. And my I have friends who don't watch news that watch the debate. OK. And I didn't get a text. Nobody. They like because they'll they'll hit me up like I have some insight.

I love them. They're like, so if you talk to the president and I'll I used to mess with them, be like, well, he called me this morning, but I was busy. I didn't answer, you know, working out. I don't pick up the phone when I left. And then it got to the point where people really thought it was true when I actually haven't spoken to either of the presidents. But it just goes back to the same thing.

I think you're on. I'm upset about the same things that we have been that we in real time in our lifetime. We just like, oh, Carl, this is bigger than than Watergate. Well, Carl, this is bigger than Watergate.

And you're you were complicit. Bernstein said 15 to 20 times over the last six months a week. Let's see. He freezes.

Yeah, he freezes up. Now, all of a sudden now they have no choice. But what we're seeing is and this is this is the positive when I'm looking at it, when we're seeing the reactions from the White House and White House personnel, you can tell who's in and who's out. And we even that night on TV, we saw who was in who's out. See, Vance doesn't is in on CNN. Vance isn't apparently not getting the memo because we got a job.

Yeah. He came out and gave us real time journalistic. And he said, it's over. And then he even made it personal. He said, I like the guy. I love the guy. He's a nice man, but it's over.

Right. By the time the break came back, Jones had a whole different facial expression. And he had I mean, he let us I just got a phone call from a black leader tearing my butt up in this.

And he had to basically retract everything that he said to oops. We already know, too. Yeah.

So the disgusting part, what bothers me and I think bothers you is when I hear the line of questioning. So what are they going to do now? What? What?

Excuse me. He's not running the country. They convinced they're trying to convince the American people that Biden is a better alternative than Kamala. That's a joke. So listen to this was developed.

This story came at one hour ago, less than an hour. Biden has told an ally that he's weighing whether to continue in the race. And he also came out and said that if he knows if he freezes up or has incidents like he did one or two more times, it's over. And the White House has pushed back on it. But now Jim Clyburn, I haven't heard this yet, just said this about possible replacement. And so you can actually fashion the process that's already in place to make it a mini primary. And I would support that.

Absolutely. We can't close that down and wish to open up everything for the general election. And I think that Kamala Harris would have quit herself very well in that kind of a process. But then it would be fair to everybody, to all of the other governors who may be interested.

And there are some that I would be interested to hear from as well. So he's already postulating what would happen if Biden steps aside? Well, because we know he's not part of it.

Because no one else is talking like that. Everyone else is doubling down. The media is now, they're already telling on themselves. They're coming out with a, well, if Trump gets in, he's going to come after me and they're going to come get me.

No, no, no. You should get a call from the Department of Justice because you were doing quick pro quo with the United States government pushing false narratives for play. Because what did you get by running with the White House? You got all the what? You got all the interviews. Fox didn't get an interview. You get an interview with the president, the vice president? Nope. No, of course not. Did you ever talk to Peter Doocy except for an abstract question?

Imagine following a guy for three and a half years and getting four questions out? Yeah, it's what I'm saying to that point. So it's not like they, not only did they get the interview with the president, which still means something, it still matters, then the networks give them specials and book deals.

So it's very advantageous for the left mainstream media to get in and they got in bed with them and they were getting away with it because they were being able to spin. And then the one time, because the world saw what everyone else who was paying attention was already seeing, the difference was there was no one there to deflect it right away. And we saw it. And then, you know, and then afterwards, oh, he had a bad night. You can't have a bad night as United States president. Right. One bad night is a nuclear holocaust. Right.

But Obama had a bad night. We're OK with that. That's called being out debated. Yeah. I went out and I lost by 21 points to the first to the third place team. If you're the first place team, sometimes that happens. Right.

But you didn't lose because you were facing the wrong way at kickoff. Thank you. Here's what former New York Times editor Jill Abramson said. Tell me if you agree. Obviously, the president declined was a super hard story to report, even with those who wanted to get it, like the Wall Street Journal. Their story did not deliver using mostly named GOP sources. But I do think if enough reporters had pushed, the story was reportable. I worry that too many journalists didn't try to get the story because they did not want to be accused of helping elect Donald Trump. That's the former editor of The New York Times, which just told everybody that the journalists, the journalists are dead. It's not up to you to decide the pundits. They are pundits now. This is the fun.

CNN is a pundit for the White House or they might as well be. So listen, Tyrus is not going to be working in July and August on the stage, but he'll be in Cornwallis, Oregon on the 12th for two days. And then in in Idaho, September 14th and 15th since 16th in Cheyenne, Wyoming, he sold out in Illinois in the 26th in Decatur on the 27th. Oh, my God, this crazy schedule. Batesville, Indiana, then Troy, Michigan on the 29th. You'll see it all on Link TR. You get tickets on Linktree.com while you're so old. And by the way, I'm not taking the month of July.

My tour in July is sold off. It's Linktree. Yeah, we've got to. Does he have a person?

Does he? Oh, we we have a person for your social media. My goodness. This is why I get called on here so much to bail you out. I'll take it from here, kid. We'll be back. We'll be back.

I'll clear it up because if we just told everyone in my July tour that's already sold out, that I'm not working. So we will be back. One of us will be.

I hope it's me. We'll be back. We'll be back. We've got a few more minutes with Tyrus. We both survived it.

I did not know Tyrus. I knew you were popular, but I didn't know you sold out the summer. I thought you just took the summer off. No, summer tour sold out. All right. So you don't like to brag. I would know if I sold out, I would have sold out all over. And I said, oh, I'm sorry.

Did you I should have listed that it says sold out. Why don't you focus on the ones that we just got? I prefer to. The best revenge in life is success. But even better than that is silent success, where they have to go up to be like, hey, are your show sold out?

And then you go, are they like, what's the matter? It doesn't matter to me. Well, look, who would have known? Wow.

Really? All of them. All right, cool. So when you get questions from the audience, are they mostly wrestling questions?

No, never wrestling questions for no movies. No, it's all about it's always it's always the first. I'm going to be honest with you. The first thing they ask me a lot of times is first thing I want to know is who's taller.

Kilmeade or got fell. That's one of the questions I get asked a lot. And my answer is always the same. I said, kill me. It's not even close.

He's got him by a good three or four inches. So and but I always get questions. How the hell did you get at Fox? Right. Like how do people treat you? And people treat you great, right? Yeah. Well, they have no choice.

Use the gym. You know, it's not like. Yeah. But I always have fun with them. And I always tell the. For a while, there was a rumor going around when I first got here that I was Rupert's dirty little secret because I'm a my last name is Murdoch and we're both spelled the same. So and I'm going to I have a sense of humor. So I didn't you didn't say stop it. No, right. I was like, oh, of course, you can wear his hat backwards.

Rupert's he's the other Murdoch, you know, so there was a lot of those rumors going around, which I enjoyed thoroughly. So listen, go to how do we go find out where to go? OK, because link to me doesn't know. This is it's really sad of all your accomplishments. Social media is not one of them.

We treat Tyrus, just go to Planet Tyrus or Tyrus smash. This is Jimmy Fallon inviting you to join me for Fox Across America, where we'll discuss every single one of the Democrats. Dumb ideas.
