Normally, I might say to you, we start hour number two. It's a three hour program. I approach Wednesdays like it's a four hour program because we have a podcast to do after the show. This week's guest, Former college great Mac Brown, still great. North Carolina's all-time winning as coach won a natty with Texas.
Mac Brown joins me after the program for the Jim Rome podcast. Make sure you look for that. Meantime, I want to remind you this show is brought to you by FanDuel. My thanks to our pals at Fanduel. I've got a new topic to start hour number two, but first, a little bit of reaction.
Amber in Portland is in. And she writes, Romy, did the Mississippi Queen say vodka water? That sounds absolutely foul. Does bong water want nothing to do with that? Girl, mix in some seltzer or tonic.
You're nasty. Camber. Camber, look, the thing about it is. She is the Mississippi Queen.
Now, you might be the Portland Queen, but she is the Mississippi Queen. Maybe that's how they get down there. Yeah, I don't care that much about school spirits. You're nasty. Not even it's nasty.
You're nasty. A couple of Vaguer. Mix in some seltzer or tonic. You're nasty. That's hilarious.
Especially hilarious since the quotes probably, or the bytes are probably 10, 12 years old. Is is there even a date on that albie? It's it's just a classic. I mean, I don't know what became of the Mississippi Queen or if she still gets down like that. and still drinks vodka water.
But if so Amber playing it in the president tense. Quote, you're nasty. Back-to-back lady clones. And Romy's my homie. Quote, I miss all the Raiders Week commercials that they used to play here in San Diego.
It always got me fired up. Oh, well. Hate Chargers. Time to die. If they lose, it might be.
Man, there there were so many So many over-the-top things said about the Chargers. Mike McDaniel is here. Gonna be the greatest thing ever. Justin Herbert's going to be the greatest quarterback ever. Signed, Jim Harbaugh.
Lamar in Hampton's gonna have the greatest year ever because Mike McDaniels got that run scheme. Guys were healthy. We fortified the offensive line. Arizona came in and punched him in the face. If the Raiders get them too.
If it's not time to die. It's definitely time to panic. And yes, it would be two weeks in. If you start 0-2, Tough enough to bounce back from 0-2. But if you start 0-2 and those losses, or to Arizona and the Raiders, it is time to die.
Not time to panic. It's time to die. Especially given all those crazy expectations. Twin Dad Ed wore the Raiders stomping out the Chargers. Hashtag Suck Diego.
Ed, you do know they moved to LA, right? It's got nothing to do with San Diego. You know that, right? Shame is twenty-seven. I'm all about Rome spirit, but let's be real.
Without the Quran, there is no Rome spirit. Signed the chatters. Exactly. They made that very clear yesterday. I'm all about the show.
But without the cron, there is no show. I'm all about the show. But without the hippie lettuce, the show's just not that good. I'm all about the show. But Without the bud, the show actually sucks.
Rome. I want to get high, so high. Signed Jim Rome's YouTube chat. All right, we get it. I got it yesterday.
We don't need to jump today. You're all baked. I know.
Alright, so new hour, new topic. It is that time of year again. Where the Mets do something. unbelievably Mets. And whether it's a player giving the thumbs down sign to a Mets fan, or Mr.
Met flipping off MetFan, or the Mets just choking and collapsing down the stretch like they always do, MetFan is always the biggest loser in all of this. No matter what happens, MetFan loses. But you see, that's not really the story last night. Because what happened last night? Is Metfan finally getting something to cheer for?
They've been waiting since April for something good to happen, something to cheer for, and they finally got it last night. Unfortunately what Met Fan got so excited about. is a former Met and Kern Oriol hitting his three hundredth career bomb against the Mets to tie the game in the ninth inning, which led to all this weird, convoluted, conflicted energy. Check this. Fifty feet six inches away now as Pete hits a hive.
Bye. That ball is long. Home run history in Pete Alonso's City Field homecoming. Wow. That's what the fans came to see right there.
They came to see the polar bear leave the yard. 264 career home runs. Yeah. With the Mets. And that is number three.
All right, now, first of all, it's Baltimore's broadcast. But they're not wrong. And it is hilarious. He's saying that's what the Mets fan came to see? The opposition jump ship.
And did you see? Did you see? I mean, the optic is just a little confusing. I've got a Baltimore Orio rounding the bases with his six-shooter out. And I've got Mets fans and Mets gamers standing and cheering.
The hell is going on here? Met fan going crazy. for the Oriole. And if that wasn't enough, Because that wasn't enough. The best part, Peter Lonzo.
also took a curtain call. Because Pete could read the room, and Pete could tell that MetFan was loving every second of it. Even though it costs the Mets the game. Which they ultimately lost in the 11th, because of course they did. If that guy's going to hit home run number 300 and they're going to get off their asses and stand up and jeer.
There's no way the Mets are going to win that game. And by the way, at that point, Mets fan didn't want them to win that game. Mets fan didn't want them to win that game before that game. MetsFan got what they paid for. MetsFan got the ending they wanted.
That's why MetzFan was there to cheer for former Met. That's what it is to be a Mets fan. There's no other possible ending for that game after that home run than the Mets losing. Hell, never mind that game, this season. Never mind this season, this is life What an incredibly met situation.
But not really a big mystery as to why that happened. Metz fan loves Pete Alonso for obvious reasons. Met Front Office did not love Pete Alonso for less obvious reasons. In fact, I still can't figure it out. The Met front office allowed this guy to walk this offseason without making him an offer.
which obviously infuriated Met fanbase. And then Pete goes off. had a thirty six homer, one hundred and one RBI season in Baltimore while pretty much single handedly keeping their wildcard hopes alive.
Meanwhile, the Mets season is already over. They've been playing out a string For weeks. They're eliminated, they're done, and the guy they signed to replace Alonzo only played in thirty seven games and hit a buck forty eight.
So yeah, they're pissed. You know they're pissed. That's why Met fans stood and cheered for an opponent hitting a clutch home run in their ballpark yesterday. And that is why MetFan followed that up with a curtain call. demanding a curtain call.
What that was, was love for a guy that they've always loved, but Let's not get it twisted. What that really was, was a big bleep you to Met's president David Stearns. It was the fans saying, we were right. You were wrong. You let our favorite player walk for no reason.
It's actually pretty obvious why they cheered. Yet somehow not all Met fans. We're cool with that. Because then social media, then the fight went to social media. And social media still right now is filled with MetFan on MetFan crime.
MetFan is out here cannibalizing other MetFan. Met fan is out here going Met's kid. On fellow Met Fan. Look at what they're fighting about. Look at what they're talking about.
Nothing that matters regarding that team, right? I gotta tell you how kooky Met fans are going at other Met fans from afar. Ask me. No offence. You all look like a bunch of losers.
None of you look any better than any of the rest of you kooky Met fans. Metfan is obligated? Obligated to cheer for their crappy team, even though their crappy team gives them nothing to cheer for? Really? Is that printed on their incredibly overpriced Citi Field ticket?
Small print, big print. Front of the ticket, back of the ticket. Only allowed to cheer for the home team. Can't cheer for a guy that we used to love and still do, actually, because he wanted to be there, didn't want to leave. Why, the season's already over.
Met paying customer in Citi Field cheered last night because somebody finally gave them something to cheer about or cheer for for the first time all year long. It really is that simple. Simple enough for other Mets fans and current Mets players to understand. Yet, yet, not all of them. Judging by Sean Manias' comments after the game, it seems that the players also have a hard time understanding why the fans are not cheering for their crappy team.
You know, to have that kind of reaction to an opposing player, you know, it could be anybody, it's crazy to me. you know, I've again, I've got nothing but respect for Pete, but Um Yeah, I've just never seen anything like that before. And Yeah, I know. The guys in here, we are grind our butts off and stuff like that happens, but um Yeah, it's just I've I've never seen anything like that of this sort. It's kinda crazy.
Now you have, brother.
Now you have. But the guys in here are trying their butts off. Oh, but you try hard. I get it. Grinding our butts off in here, Rome.
Would you like an orange slice with that? Maybe a Capri Sun? A participation trophy? You're trying really hard. Hey, yo, brother, welcome to the Mets.
This is your third season there. This kind of stuff really should not be surprising anymore. It happens all the time there. He's Sean. I think I can help you understand why the fans really don't care, that y'all are grinding your butts off.
Yeah, it happens. Yeah. Let me see how to put this. The reason they don't care that you're grinding your butts off is because your team sucks. And you're an embarrassment to the city, and an embarrassment to those same fans.
You're an embarrassment to the entire sport, actually. Does that help? Did that clear that up for you? They're New York fans. They understand sports.
They're knowledgeable fans. They know crap when they see crap. They know an extremely underachieving team when they see an extremely underachieving team. And for him to say, like, hey man, that was weird. Never seen that before.
Doesn't really matter who it is. Actually, it does. He Was their favorite player? They did nothing to sign him. That was his 300th home run, and you all have given them nothing to cheer about.
So they were cheering their guy, and they were expressing their discontent with the front office. Why is this so hard to understand? You've been out of the running mathematically for a long time now. Wh why are you so confused? The ludicrously expensive Mets are a joke.
Such a joke that they're the perfect counter-argument to the Dodgers roaning baseball because the Mets are proof that you cannot buy wins, you cannot buy rings. Sincerely, they're 69 and 82 record. But Met Player wants to comment on how Met fan is choosing to cheer during their absurdly pathetic and humiliating season. What? They're supposed to come out and say.
Hey! You guys try real hard. We're so proud of you. You're pro athlete. Good job, good effort.
Good job, good effort. Stop acting like this is Little League Baseball. If you guys don't like it. You could have tried winning some games. You could have tried winning more than you lost.
Yeah, I know, I know. I know, but you're trying really hard, really hard. Mania himself is five and seven He has an ERA of four seventy four and he's playing for a last place team, and yet he's looking around like where's our applause? Why are they cheering for the five-time Met All-Star who they never want to see leave, who's having another great season? What's going on?
Aren't we in New York? Isn't this city field? Pretty goofy to me that this guy does not get it. But it's even more goofy how many Met fans there Don't get it either. You would think that MetFan would be so scarred from a lifetime of terrible optics.
That they just can't handle the optic of Met fan cheering against the Mets in City Field. I I would think they'd be so calloused by everything that nothing would bother them at that point. But no, they're they're fighting with each other. MetFan on MetFan crime. It's like the most Mets thing ever.
We're not talking about how they match up with somebody they're going to run into in the first round. We're not talking about the home field advantage that that expensive roster got them. We're not talking about how they match up with others. We're talking about whether or not they should be cheering former players that come back and hit big bombs. How met fan of you.
How met of you? Just try not to go full Met kid on yourselves, Met fan. You guys have all had a hard enough life. without resorting to MetFan on MetFan Crime. Terry!
His co-paint It's worse than a rat. Hate the dogs, which all you want, but they're still in it. Show some f ⁇ ing emotion, old ass, chewy ass man. Show some fleeping emotion, you old ass silly ass fan. This kid's probably an adult now running around City Field trying to knock out all those fans who are cheering for Alonzo.
Met's kid is probably Mets middle-aged man now. Met's kid is probably likes to fight Mets middle-aged man now and he's running around trying to punch people in the face silly ass fan04 And all Ray Ramirez. Senior Guard! Get out of here, you little Marvey don't need to cry. Get out of here, you little Barbie doll.
Sit your ass down. Stop cheering for Alonzo. Stop cheering! Silly ass Mets fan. Stop shooting for both of us.
Sit your ass down. Barbie doll? For this sponsor of a club, you know, I'm old ass. This kid 15 years ago is far and away the best thing about the Mets fan today. I need to be out of the way.
Let me repeat that. This kid. 15 years ago, the best thing about the New York Mets today. It's over for you, you little. That kid.
I don't know what he's doing as an adult. But that kid then is still the best thing about that team today. They got James. You're bullpen shot! Cherry.
You're about to get my hands, my nine-year-old hands, we're gonna go. See you. Man, I'm a prince. Doughy ass man, Terry. Terry, meet my hands.
Hands, meet Terry's face. Terry, my hands. Hands meet Terry's silly ass face. Silly ass man. Why aren't you?
Terry We're seeing. It's over. He met. You don't want Peter Lonzo to celebrate? Maybe don't throw a meatball, you clowns Yeah, then there's that.
How about you get him out? Clowns. How about you get him out? Instead, why are you mad at the fans? Why are you Mets fans mad at other Mets fans?
Why are you not mad at Mets Pitcher? For grooving him one. Aaron in Iowa, saying the Mets suck is not a take. It's the truth. This is all from the chat.
SP 11282. Mets are to baseball. What Bon Jovi is to rock. Radiation level okay. Quote, Mets player.
Whining about Mets fan is almost as lame as the losers in chat who have to announce their departure because it's baseball talk. We get it, meatheads. You like football. This is sports talk. Oh, hell no, Rome.
Now you've gone too far. All right, bad enough you were California Rome yesterday. Today you're baseball Rome. We're out. No, you're not.
If I know anything about you in chat. I know one thing, you're not out. You're not out. You're not out even after California Rome, and you're not out after baseball roam. You're not out.
You are addicted to the chat room. You know you're not out. You know, you are not out, and especially over something like me talking baseball. Damn, which why? Ta.
Hockey. That's it, Rome. Out of the chat. No, you're not. You would have left long ago if that were the f the case.
Craig Durandall quote Fact check. The guys in the Mets locker room are indeed not grinding their butts off. He they might be, but it's not doing em any good. If they are, there's little evidence. on the scoreboard.
If they are If they are, it's not working. You know what you know what I wanna do? I need another fact check. Let me check this fact. Are the Mets looking up at the Angels right now?
But they are looking up, they're not, they're not looking up at the angels, but they're looking up at the gnats. The guys in here, we are grinding our butts off and. Mets player Had best not complain about Mets fan. You're lucky you even have a Mets fan left. Hey man, that was often why don't you look in the mirror and why don't you explain to us why you're like 30 games under 500 instead of complaining about the Mets or the Mets fans cheering for somebody that they loved who did put up numbers.
who was great, who didn't want to leave. And he's still putting up numbers. Right, you let him get away. You let him walk out the door, and he's still putting up numbers. Man, I was so glad to see him get that home run there.
Good for him. Let me tell you something, Mets player. This is why they're cheering. For him. Because of you.
Because of your attitude towards something like that, and because you're just not good at your job. Why else would they go? Mets player, why else would they go to one of your games right now? You're mathematically eliminated. But you're upset that they're cheering for him.
Yeah, I've just never seen that before. Mets player. They're not there to see you. They're not there to see you because you've been out of the running for a long time. They're there to see a guy that they loved for a long time that apparently they still love.
It's crazy to me. It's not crazy. It's crazy to me that that's what you think. Levines Romeo. Who has more hate?
Methane. For David Stearns, or Or David Stern for Jim Rome. Great question. Great question. I would ask the other David Stern.
or astern, but he's in the ground. He's unavailable to speak right now. He's in the ground. I can't ask him. But but but but but One of us is on the right side of the dirt, and one of us is on the wrong side of the dirt.
And I would ask him, but if you were here, I would ask him this. Hey, old man. Why were you so upset over a question that I had asked you 10 times already? that we discussed for years. But alas I can't.
Because I am on the right side of the dirt and he's on the wrong side of it.
So I can't answer that for you. And squats the toad. In the chat, quote, I can't quit you. I know, Toad. I know this.
This is why, when some of you in the chat come up with this nonsense about that's it, Rome, we're out. Peace out. You're talking baseball. No, you're not. No, you're not.
You know why? The thing you love more than the show is you. You're not leaving the chat. There's almost no topic that I could talk about that those of you that are baked in the chat room would leave over. I'm not going to.
I'm going to think for a minute. What can I get into? Yeah. I'm talking about the things I talk about on the show, not something that I could conjure up. I know there's something I could say that would piss you off enough to leave, but that's not what I do.
That's not the currency I trade in. I'm just saying, of all the topics and all the sports and all the things that we change. Chop it up about. What would I talk about that you would leave over? Nothing.
I'm talking about those of you in the chat. I'm directing this at those of you in the chat that are saying, we're out. He's talking baseball. No, you're not. You know you're not.
Like that guy just said. I can't quit you. At Rude Dog CP. First time watching. And chatting on YouTube without being stoned in between work and a meeting.
I don't know what to do. Yes, you do, rude dog. Yes, you do. You're gonna do what you always do. You're gonna get baked.
You're not confused. And one more, Mark Nato, 303. Jim, how do you expect? The small market Mets to compete with a team like the Brewers and all of their big Curd money. They got to give their fans a reason to show up.
That's strong. Can't compete with that big curd money, can you?
Well done. All right, when we come back, we are still open. I don't know why it is that I talk about the Browns every single day on this show, but I talk about the Browns every single day on this show. I don't even know why. Prepared, this is for you.
This is for you. You know what a clear one is? And I hate to say it, Cleveland. Hold up, Albie. Yeah, I think.
Yesterday was a good reminder of it, doesn't matter how many positive things I've said about somebody or a region for how many years. If I say one thing, it's like, oh, okay. All right, California Rome, now we get it. Cleveland, you know I love you. You know this.
You know we have deep history. I'm on record as saying that this brand in this show would not be what it is without Cleveland. Cleveland is extraordinarily important to me. But you know what Cleveland is? Creepland?
It is a factory of sadness.
So factories. It's a factor. It's a A factory of creepiness. It's just not a factory of winning. This is the problem.
It is a content factory. I'll give them that. It's a factory of sadness. But it is a content factory. Just as you can't quit me in the chat.
I can't quit Creepland. They're a content factory. Speaking of Joe. Joke'em No I saw recently was I think actually apologizing for that take. No, bro.
Apology not accepted. You said it. You meant it? You can't take that back. You like it?
You Me e Would you go there on vacation? Tell factories, man. It's all factories. Not all factories. A lot of factories, but not all factories, at Billy Webb 9388 on chat.
It's not crazy. Baseball fans usually have respect for history no matter what team is on the field. I can't believe that player doesn't understand that a former Mets player got applause for his three hundredth home run. That's who? That too.
And they love the guy. They love the guy. Mets fan doesn't, or Mets player doesn't get it. Grinder button. I have a question, Mets player.
I have a question, Mets fan. How many homegrown Mets go on to become five-time all-star players with the Mets? Who hit over 250 home runs? Not many. Not many.
So when you let one of them walk And they come back and they hit a milestone home run. And you loved him, and he never wanted to walk They're gonna get out of their seat.
So don't be shocked when it happens. Kind of crazy.
Alright, now I'm good, Abby. You know how I know? I just spent 29 minutes on it. California Jim just spent 29 minutes on Mets team and Mets player. Grind our butts off.

Why don't we start with the fact that? It's a family-run business. A family-run business that I know, and a family-run business that stands by quality and produces the world's finest beef jerky. Do not be fooled by the other brands. All beef jerky is not the same.
Make sure you choose Hulch Rapper. You can actually see the quality right through their iconic Clear View packages. They do that on purpose. They'll want you to know exactly what you're getting. Every single bite of Ultra Rapper is tender, it's never tough because they use just the best ingredients.
Once again, they don't need to do that, they choose to do that. From their lean strips of beef, seasoned with top quality spices, to their real wood-fired smoke, Old Trapper delivers quality in every single bite, and it comes in four amazing flavors: old-fashioned, classic beef jerky flavor. Exceptionally tender, it's smoky, it's delicious. Also, teriyaki with the yellow label. World Trapper turned the flavor down to 11.
Hot and spicy, with a spice so nice, you know you're gonna wanna stack twice. And then you've got peppered. Tender seasoned beef covered in cracked pepper, a cold beer's best friend.
So grab and go with a four-ounce bag or load up with an 18-ounce bag. That way, there's enough for the entire team. If you don't see it, and you will. But if you don't see it, ask for it by name because no other jerky comparison, trapper, what is your beef? My dough never sees a freezer.

So I kind of want to make that a little more equitable. I want to balance that out. I want to say something positive about the Mets. Just to show you that that's the way I am. I'm not looking just to tear you down.
I can say something positive about the Mets. In fact, one of the most positive things I've seen since.
Well Met's kid.
Now Personal appearance. He is not show fodder. Unless you look like this freaking guy. If you're listening on the radio, I'm sorry that you can't see what we're about to throw up on the stream, but maybe you've seen this guy. This is one of their better prospects.
Mitch Voigt. It it it's creepy. I'm a really handsome young guy. But it's creepy how much he looks like AI. This is an action.
Actual met prospect. Not AI. This is not the robots. Nobody prompted any robot. This is an action.
Actual Mets prospect. I have never seen a human being. This is what we've gone from. I've gone from talking about humans that look like rats. To humans that look like AI.
Do we develop an AI family like we had a rat family back in the day? In AI family. I mean that That's not offensive. The Rhett family may be offensive to some. Like if you're in the rat family, you probably did take offense.
Because you weren't handsome. You look like a freaking rodent. AI family would suggest that you look too good to be true. You look like you're manufactured, you look fake. You look so good, you look fake.
You don't look real. This dude literally looks like he's AI. He's just sitting there and he's talking to reporters. Showing up. Like there's always that thing about how do you show up?
How do you show up? Hmm. Too good to be true. Fake. Perfect.
This dude looks like he's AI. It's really kinda creepy. Like AI is creepy anyway, right? But it's creepy how AI this guy looks. Maybe we start in the AI family.
Mitch, my dude, you are the first member of the AI family.
So the two best things. The two best things to happen to the Mets in the last 15 years, according to me. Our Mets Kid. An AI prospect. Mitch Voigt.
I mean It It's weird. I mean, a guy, he's like perfect. He's AI, he's fake. But he's not. We know it's real.
All right, so I can't give you the rat family back. I mean, I could, but why go backwards? Remember, always forward, never back. Always forward, never back. I can't go back and give you the rat family, but maybe we'll start the AI family.
You my guy. Right now it's a family of one. You are the patriarch. Mitch? You are the only one in the fam.
But if you're watching On the stream, and you had not seen this, am I right? It's wild.
So there. There's another reason to see the Mets when this guy makes it actually. Believe me. If they remain as bad as they are, And that guy ultimately ends up Being a star for the Mets or even just a starter for the Mets, Mets fans will be telling themselves: let's go to the yard and go see that AI guy. Let's go to the yard and go see the AI player.
Because they're not going to the yard to see wins. We know that's not happening anytime soon. There you go. I'll also point out He's Michigan man. But mostly AI man.
All right, so there's something new. A new development in the jungle. We have an AI family. Where'd he go? I got Mac Brown coming up for the podcast, Jim Rome Podcast, episode number 426.

So grab and go with a four-ounce bag or load up with an 18-ounce bag. That way, there's enough for the entire team if you don't see it, and you will. But if you don't see it, ask for it by name because no other jerky comparison, trapper, what is your beef? My dough never sees a freezer. Faye Hollis makes the biscuits at Hardee's.
I'm up at 5 a.m. every day making biscuits from scratch. Easy there, biscuit lady. Ought to create the Hardee's $2 for $5 breakfast menu. Try the new Oscar Meyer bologna biscuit, sausage and egg biscuit, smoked sausage biscuit, biscuit and gravy, or a cinnamon roll.
The $2 for $5 breakfast for a limited time only at participating Hardees. I got up early. The least you can do is show up hungry. Quick reminder clones, not all beef jerky is the same. Old Trapper is original, old-fashioned.
Teriyaki, hot and spicy, and peppered, all come in four-ounce bags. That way, you can sample all the different flavors and find the best one for you. Ask for old Trapper by name because no other jerky compares old Trapper with your beef. Wants to be known that I love old Trapper. I love that company.
I love that family. And I love the relationship we've had for a number of years. Thank you very much to them.
So. I want to remind you: as part of the show being what it is right now, we are on Westwood One Sports. We are on Terrestrial Radio. I would say right now, I have to look it up, but we're close to right around. 200 stations.
But not all of them. Not many of them actually, and I appreciate all of them. But not many of them actually engage. with the program, the official account. This one did.
Big shout out to our Eugene affiliate 95.3 the score at 95.3 the score is their handle. They write for at Jim Rome. April twenty seventh, nineteen eighty two, after Boss George let Reggie Jackson walk to the Angels. He comes to the Bronx. He takes Ron Guidry deep.
Yankees fans chant Stein Brenner sucks. New York fans know inept ownership. 95 through the score. Appreciate you all. That's true.
Listen. Don't act like this is some one-off that a once popular player came back. And did something, and there were fans that still loved that guy, and then got up and cheered for that guy. Why is this so confusing? Don't act like this is the first time this has ever happened.
And Mets player again can say nothing because Mets team is so horrible. If Met's team was in first place, Playing their asses off. That might be a different conversation, maybe. But if Mets team is that bad with that roster and that money in it. And they're not playing for anything at this juncture of the season, and one of their guys comes back that they did dirty.
And the fans still love him? Why is Mets player so shocked at that? Mets players should look in the mirror and ask why they aren't doing better. As opposed to why are the fans doing that? No, why are you doing what you're doing, or not doing what you're supposed to be doing?
This guy cracks me up. Aaron Michael 318 on the chat. Is this dude looking for Sarah Connor? I actually see it. Saracana.
I do not see it. He does look like he's looking for Serakana. I need your clothes, your boots, and your motorcycle. You close your boots, your motorcycle, and Serra Cana. Where is Serra Cana?
Sarah Sarah Kana, where are you? I'm looking for Serra Cana. Seracana? We got an AI family. Dude from Cheers 07, fake 49-ish receiver looks more real than AI guy.
Another good point. Look at this guy. I see what this guy tried to do, but it's not a good comp. This guy, in response to what we're talking about with the Mets and Mets fan, cheering for a former Met at Branson 6447, quote: I cheer every time my wife's boyfriend comes over. Amusing but Doesn't work.
One eight hundred six three six eight six eight six. You know he's having a day. Jack in NC. In chat? AI Guy is a future Oriole.
Sign David Stearns. Jack in NC. Hey, hey, he's the monk in. He denies the Browns is the Browns. He just lost his luncheon.
Next time, Vance Mack's in town. Yeah. Try that again, Abby. Three, two, one Hey, hey, he's the monkin He denies the Browns is the Browns He just lost his luncheon Next time Van Smack's in town So true.
So true. Way to go, Jack.
Well played. I told you, Jack. Was having a day? Stephen the Buncie the Bunckey is in. Quote, guarantee 75% of your listening audience doesn't understand.
What terrestrial radio means. You're using words too big for the clones.
Now th this is the point of the show. We are trying to place the show on as many platforms, as many stations as we possibly can, so as many of you can find the product as possible. I am extremely proud of our terrestrial background. And the fact that Westwood One Sports is still in that business. Not only still in that business, but started this business.
They know. They know. Eric in the South Side. When will Rome be on extra-terrestrial radio?
Well we're looking into it. I hope I get there before the robots get to us. That's the big thing. Who's gonna get us first, the aliens or the robots? Aw.
