Rightly Rated: Under, Over, or Rightly Rated...

All right, with the time we have remaining, we have just enough time to decide if things are overrated, underrated, or properly rightly rated. This is rightly rated. I think we've been overrated.

I think they've been underrated. We're going to start out with snakes, and we have a little bit of audio to play for this. And Victoria, what did you tell me? Do you have a pet snake? An unintentional pet snake.

Wait, hold on. An unintentional pet snake is just a wild snake. Well, it is a wild snake.

So I live out in the country, the woods, everywhere. So there's probably multiple pet snakes that I'm just not aware of. There's always snakes. There's always snakes.

Always snakes. But, however, I do have somewhat of a little garden. And the past few years, I've heard some rustling under this garden where the leaves are. And, you know, of course, I've thought there's a snake. Well, he has come out this summer to make his presence known, and I have named him Gary, the gardener's snake. So, yeah. He just hangs out in your garden. Oh, he totally does.

Like, I know there are a few spots where he will lay and catch some sun, depending on what time of day it is. And this weekend I got brave and, like, touched him, and he was cool. Like, we're all cool. We're all cool. You're braver than I am. Now, I've had to actually take care of snakes as part of my job back in the day.

Yeah, now. And some were OK. The one, like, the corn snakes, they were cool. I'll tell you a long story sometime about how I was taking a snake to a school presentation, and I got there, and the snake wasn't in its thing. And I was like, I had to do the presentation. And I got back in my car to leave, look all around. I'm like, I guess I'm leaving.

And I sit down in the chair, and it's sitting on the dashboard, just sunning itself and looking at me. Oh, boy. Yeah. So that's pretty brave of you. So you just, do you know what kind of snake you're dealing with?

I think it's just a garden snake. All right. Yeah, he's tame. The only reason I got brave was because we've had close encounters before. I'm surprised he's letting you pet him, too. Yeah, it's, yeah, it's just.

Very cool. I've gotten very close to him. I didn't know he was there until he moved away. So we've been warming up to this. So now I talk to him every time. I'm probably great. I'm nuts. But I'll say like, what's up, Gary? Every time I walk by, we're cool now. All right. Well, Harry Douglas on First Take let us know how he feels about snakes, because his colleague Heather Dinnage posted, almost like you did, a picture of a snake just hanging out in some of her plants.

Here's what Harry Douglas had to say. Spanish, before we run for the day, thank you for having a rough day. How'd you like to be Heather Dinnage? She posted this just a short time ago. She was trying to water her plants. She ran into a little bit of a AHC.

What do you think of what happened to HD? Oh, that's my sis right there. We worked in college football together. Now, Heather, I found a snake in my house a few years ago, and I tortured that little sucker because he could have got to my kids. I lit him on fire green.

So if I was Heather, I would have poured gasoline on him and lit him on fire and got rid of him. Well, that wasn't what I expected at all. I love the silence.

They don't know what to say. Okay. Look, people, I'm not going to like berate you for being scared of snakes. Right. But we do need to like, most snakes are good. They're taking out the rats.

Oftentimes, spiders, other bad things that would be in your yard. They're helping you, man. Exactly. That's why Gary and I are cool.

In fact, if a snake could come and take out these robins that are in my backyard, I might have been doing me a favor. Okay. Well, now I've got to post a picture of Gary because this picture, if you see the tweet, there's a picture. It's the same thing.

He's just chilling. If you need someone to relocate your snake, get on a social media app of your choice, Nextdoor, Facebook, people will find them. But please, I'm not going to make you love snakes if you hate them. Please do not pour gasoline on snakes and light them on fire. This is not the way. This is not the way. I'm not a copperhead fan because, see, that's the only snake that I'm like, okay. Sure.

Sure. It can kill you. But even still, pouring gasoline on them and lighting them on fire, seems excessive. Spray with the hose, see if it goes away. Seems excessive.

Call someone to relocate that thing. Copperheads. Come on.

Yeah. Snakes, are they overrated, underrated, or rightly rated? You must think they're like underrated. You're boys with them. See, I've kind of... You're tight with the snakes.

I've had, because I've lived in the woods for so long that I've kind of had to. So they might be underrated. They are scary though. I get it.

I just, yeah. They're necessary. Because when you live in the woods, you also live with mice and spiders and bugs that look like man eaters. Snakes are actually underrated. They're super cool.

They're amazing. The bad thing is they just... Like you said, sometimes you don't know they're there, and all of a sudden you turn around, you're like, they're right there. Come on. It's like the woman.

Why'd you sneak up on me? Exactly. Exactly.

They just seem like they're sneaking up on us. Exactly. That's the only thing about them. But ultimately, they're like super cool. Right.

They need a better PR person. They get a bad rap. Like, snakes should be a cool and more common pet. But no. We don't like snakes. Snakes, underrated. All right, next up. Alanis Morissette.

Is Alanis Morissette overrated, underrated, or rightly rated? This comes up because there is a company that will help you predict if you're going to have rain or any other type of weather on your wedding day. Andrew Levitt can advise couples on where to hold their wedding ceremonies, what hairstyles work best outside, or whether to forgo the buttercream frosting on a wedding cake, all based on the weather. As the founder of a meteorology company based in Brooklyn, Mr. Levitt, 33, knows how temperatures and atmospheric conditions can sometimes affect weddings.

I love this part. Wow. He's getting paid to predict the weather. Although Mr. Levitt is not formally trained in meteorology, his interest in the weather began when he was employed at the entertainment company AEG Presents. He worked on the Safety Alliance team for concerts, became fascinated with the concept of mitigating risk through weather detection. Now, that actually makes some sense.

It does. You know our friend, Weathermoose? Yeah. He does this for an athlete. He's a legit weatherman and a prominent athletic program that we talk about a lot uses him because, A, I guess you can't have coaches making the call or even like an athletic director because it's like, yeah, you might be like, oh, you know, you just don't want to play today because your team doesn't play well. And when it gets down to like hosting a football game, a football game is a multimillion dollar business venture, right?

It is. So they are insured because if you have six football games a year and you're expecting to make $10 million off them and then all of a sudden you can't have one because it gets rained out or otherwise, there's insurance policies. But you have to have an official weatherman call the game off.

It can't be just somebody being like, oh, yeah, it's got to be official. So that's kind of what this guy did in his business world. Like, hey, if we're going to be throwing a billion dollar festival, let's try and minimize the chance that it will get rained out.

Let's not do it at the time of the year that tornadoes always come running through, whatever. And so a friend was like, hey, can you use those same skills and check out my wedding day? And all of a sudden he was in a new new job. So his company, would you have any guess what it might be called? Is it called Ironic? It is called Ironic.

Now I didn't have that written on the thing. So that is actually Victoria guessing that. His company named Ironic will predict whether or not you'll have rain on your wedding day and other things like that.

They'll tell you like, you know, what type of day there's going to be the most shade, where, you know, the tides, all kinds of stuff. And then finally, bowling. Is bowling overrated, underrated or rightly rated? This comes up because one of the greatest headlines that has ever been written came at us last week when it says spare relationship causes awkward split. Stephen F. Austin bowling assistant coach Steve Lemke chose to resign rather than be fired this spring after the university discovered he had an affair with a student athlete. Now that's not great. A assistant coach having an affair with a student athlete, that's bad.

You know what makes it worse? Lemke was married to the head coach Amber Lemke. So his wife was the head coach and he was cheating with the player.

There are some amazing quotes from Lemke on this. He said, I knew it was kind of a no-no, but there's not a rule saying it can't happen. There's not a law saying I'm going to jail for doing something like this. First of all, there might not be a law depending on the age of the person. There's definitely a rule.

There are 100% rules of these things. Steve Lemke says, I didn't, it didn't have anything in detail. It was just about how amazing I am basically in general perspective. Oh, this is one of the texts that his wife saw. Amber saw that and questioned me and got to the point where it just builds up so much, where I basically told her the truth.

Now, Steve, this is another amazing quote. I was the stay at home dad for five years with the kids while Amber got to go off and coach the team. When she'd get back, I'd run practices on top of taking care of my kids while she was back.

When they travel again, I'd sit back and take care of the kids. Then when I got hired, she forced me to run practices. I was a volunteer the entire time before that, trying to help out Amber. Once I got hired on one thing stemmed from another.

I felt like I was doing too much for what I was being valued at. So I just thought I would have an affair with one of the players bowling underrated that guy, a treasure progressive protects more than just your home and car.
