You save. This is the Rich Eisen Show. What was it called? The Rich Eisen Show. Bull loads it up.
Franklin, make sure. Live from the Rich Eisen Show studio in Los Angeles. True Breeze, five other guys went. Bo was kind of viewed wrongly. When Sean Payton told me I really wanted Bo Nick's next two were above all these other guys.
Like, I believe that. Earlier on the show. NFL on Fox analyst Mark Sanchez. Pro Football Hall of Famer Michael Irvin. ESPN senior writer Seth Wickersham.
Coming up. Comedian Adam Ray. And now. It's Rich Eisen. Hour number three of the Rich Eisen Show is on the air.
Adam Ray, the very funny Adam Ray, is making his way. Uh to the uh studio. Should I call him the big dumper of comedians? I think that's pretty good. Did you like it?
Yeah, that's not bad. Is Kyle Raleigh the MVP of the American League? I gotta think so. How is he not? Because Judge Miss Time, this guy hasn't.
He's doing something we've never seen anybody in his position do. And they're only really in the playoff race because of him, right? I mean, And they're going to make the playoffs unless they fall apart. What, the Royals catch fire or for any passwords? The Royals have been coming on, but they would really have to fall off.
And you have to take a look again for the American League of the most valuable player. Um the crazy thing is Who are the clear MVPs of the teams that are Uh atop the League. Right now, you take a look at the Mariners, they're the last team in the wild card spot. with the Yankees and the Red Sox. not losing at this point in time.
The Red Sox toyed with the Orioles while the Yankees unfortunately said goodbye to the Washington Nationals. Um But you look at the Tigers their MVP is School, right? Mm-hmm. What did you say? I would say.
Who's the MVP of the Blue Jays? Is there anybody jumping out at you? No, because Vlad Jr., you got Bachette. Yeah, Bobeschet's hitting 307. Springer.
Springer's been hitting some home runs, but it's not like Vlad has gone crazy or anything. They're the MVP of the league? No, no, I don't think so. Who's the MVP of the Astros? Right?
I mean, so that alone, who's the MVP of the Red Sox? Crochet, right? I would say crochet. Bregman got off to such a good start in the beginning of the year, and then he was out for a month and a half. I'm going to say something.
I think it's crochet. Hold on a second. I'm going to say something, too. He's at the GM.
Well Obviously, you got to give him props because we were all. What's his name again? Craig Breslau. Yeah, because it just popped everybody. Boy, do we give them a whole bunch of grief for trading away Devers.
And he was right. But how about this one? How about this one? I can't believe I'm saying this with a straight face. Araldus Chapman.
He should be in the Cy Young conversation. He's been unbelievable. Dude. I'm just kidding. All of us in Yankeedom are like, just you wait.
He's going to put you on number one. You're going to be, he's going to walk a leadoff guy in October and. But he hasn't done it. He's unhittable right now. Unbelievable.
What he's doing right now. Yeah, it's crazy.
So, those are your American League candidates for the MVP. And I think Kyle Rollins. And Judge, obviously.
Well, I mean. Yeah. That's already been mentioned. But uh honestly, I was it's Cal Raleigh. The odds right now have Judge a slight favorite: minus 160.
Cal Raleigh, plus 125. I'm biased, but even that, though, Judge missed some time. Raleigh is not. Yep. Raleigh just keeps doing it.
He wi he's gonna wind up with 60, don't you think? The way he's been cranking them? I'd be hard-pressed to believe how he doesn't get to 60. Who's the MVP of the National League? Is it Schwarber?
You know, I would, I would, that's what I would vote for, but it the odds, it's Otani's minus 10,000. I don't know, man. He did get his first win on the mound last night. It looked like he was going to miss some time after taking a comebacker. And he, you know.
was awesome last night for the Dodgers, but what's up Oh, that's how we know J Pelle's back.
Okay. Where did Del Tufo go? Uh, Somewhere else. I don't know. He had to leave for the third hour?
Yeah. And that's why you've been here for the last two hours, chuckling in the background?
Well, it's a funny show. What do you want? Funny show. He has to set up for football.
Okay, my bad. If you're looking at NLL, wouldn't you have to go Check. The Brewers, first and foremost? Who's their MVP? They don't have to be able to do it.
We're just throwing names out. Who is their MVP? Obviously, yellow guy. Man, Bryce Terang has been unbelievable, but I don't know. Yeah.
Man, if the Pirates had any wins, like Skeens would be, he's been unhittable. Out of here. Get out of here. Man, I would vote for Schwarber. Their pitching staff of future Yankees and Red Sox look great.
And Mets. That's tough to argue. Oh, my bad. And Mets. Tough to argue.
You're making the playoffs, though, right? Yeah. Okay. They're coming on. They're on fire.
They're kind of threatening the Phillies. They're only four back of ever since, what, Alec Bohm accused them of having parabolic microphones? They've been on fire. All I know is every day I'm getting a text from Jake just getting mad that the Phillies cannot play in City Field, and I love it. That's what I got to do.
Jake of the Rich Eisen Show social media team of one. Die Hard Philly. He's crashing out late. Die Hard Philly fan. 844-204-Rich.
Number 2, Adam Ray is making his way here on the program. Today is NFC West, gents. We're predicting the National Football Conference Western division. Um I need the music. Christopher, you're going to be up first on this one.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I want to see how much you love Kyle Shanahan. The floor is yours. This is a really tough division. I actually think the NFC West could be.
Won by anybody? Say it. Say it. Say it. Won by anybody, but in the conversation, I think for best division in football.
Uh, it's tough to put the Cardinals fourth because someone has to come in fourth. I think they're really improved. I think Kyler has a real nice season. Uh, Marvin Harrison's going to show why he was a top wide receiver selection last year, and Jonathan Gannon's defense is coming on. But I think they're fourth.
Seattle won 10 games last year, but I think they're third. It's not an exciting brand of football that they're gonna play, unfortunately. I think the Rams are second. I'm really worried about Matthew Stafford. Look at you.
And Puka Nakua misses games as well.
So how does that affect the Stafford back trickle down to the rest of the offense? At some point Much to Devontae Adams' potential dismay. I think it's very possible. Jimmy G throwing him past the ball. I think it's very possible.
It's going to happen, Mike, for NFL films. Honestly, probably more likely than not. And I think the Niners with the easy division and Purdy paid and this new kind of ragtag wide receiver group, I think Purdy's going to have an awesome year. And I think the Niners probably go 11-6 and win this division.
Okay. Now let me just follow up here.
So if the Niners go 11-6 and Purdy's going to have a great year and they put it together and win this division. Coach of the year for Kyle Shannon? No, no, no, no. This doesn't happen in a vacuum, pal. It does because everyone is expecting the bounce back.
Vegas has their win total of 10 and a half, so they're supposed to do this.
So they should win this division. This nonsense of supposed to, that's the way it goes. The head coach rolls the footballs out, and it's the roster, and it's the players. If Pete Carroll wins 10 games, how is he not coaching the game? Can you say something?
Positive. About Kyle Shakespeare. Again, I just picked his team to win the division. In spite of his everything. Not in spite of anything.
Or apropos of nothing from him. He is not going to get a lot of cover for me until he hoists Lombardi. This, unfortunately. But I do really like the Niners this year. The Niners bounce back.
They meet expectations. The quarterback that was, in fact, handpicked by the head coach has an excellent year despite all that pressure on him, but has nothing to do with Kyle Shanahan. Noted. I didn't say nothing. Not enough to win coach of the year.
But not enough for you to. Give him Praise Ford. Just want to find out. If Rayboll or Pete Carroll win 10 or 11 games, they're getting coach of the year. That's just the way it works.
All right. All right. I'm done over there. Yeah. Thank you.
I gotta be honest, man. I went through three different lists trying to put this one together. I got the Seahawks coming in fourth. Wow. Yeah, it's not that I don't think they're gonna be good, but it's like Chris said, I'm not really sure.
I know they won 10. Wow. The only reason I put the Cardinals above them is I have such high hopes for Marvin Harrison and Kyler Murray this year that that is where my rationale went. If they can hit the goals that I feel like they are, then that should result in some wins.
So I got them slightly above. This last two was a flip-flop and back and forth. I put the Niners, even though I said there were seven teams who could potentially win the Super Bowl, I had them at two, and I got the Rams, and that's based solely upon Matt Stafford's back being healthy. But I don't know. I just got a weird feeling.
That Rams Eagles playoff game, Chris, made me believe that this team was not even like a player. They were like a player or two away from going to Super Bowl.
So that's why, I don't know, just in my gut right now, Rams, Niners, Cardinals, Seahawks. Yeah, the Rams and the Niners were two of the seven teams that you think are Super Bowl contenders. Along with the Lions, Eagles, Chiefs, Ravens, and Bills. You were the toughest goalie for that one. I'm a realist.
That's good. I'm a realist. Okay. And here's my prediction: you're right, Chris. It's a tough division.
And in the same way of the NFC North, someone's got to finish in fourth place, and they might actually threaten the playoffs. with it. And I'll put the Arizona Cardinals in that spot with all due respect. I should have said that in advance. Um I just still need to see it all put together.
And Seattle has a lot of changes. A lot of changes. It will be on Mike McDonald to get that. Um Team Rowing in the same direction with a new quarterback. JSN's now the new number one Cooper Cup has come in.
Uh new coordinator. The offensive side of the football might take some time or maybe not. And then the, you know, Tank Lawrence is on. Friday's program, he was a nice veteran addition to that defensive line. Uh but I do have them third.
I've got the niner second, and I think the Rams may wind up by the end of the day the class of the entire conference. conference. Not division. Not a game. Not a game.
Conference. Like everybody is what you're saying. The team that gave the Eagles the hardest time. in the playoffs last year. Richu and I would be like this like.
All right, and again, the way that the Rams finished. might splash over into way they start. this year. I love They're Young defense. I love their front seven.
Let's protect Matthew Stafford, please. Um and let's see what this guy can do. With the protection up front and McVay and run in the play action and run in the football, and Devontae. They might be the class of the conference. Can't wait.
Can't wait. First game against the Houston Texans, too, up the road for week number one. That's the way we're breaking down the NFC West. At the end of the day. 844-204-Rich.
Number to dial. Let's take some phone calls as Adam Ray is making his way to the studio. Jason in Arizona joining us on the program. What's up, Jason? You there, Jason, in Arizona?
Okay. His phone stuck in the haboob. Is that how you say it, by the way? Uh-oh, a boob? Yeah, you're with the dust storm.
Did you see that the other day? Yeah, that was wild. Horrible. Jimmy in San Antonio. Let's take your call.
What's up, Jimmy? I'm here, Rick. What's going on, bud? How are you? I'm doing well.
First, TJ, what you want is a forty-eight foot. Fountain Pagot, Catamaran, Maybe a twenty eighteen model would be in the realm of your Arch banning cards. But that's look it up. You're going to love these boats. They're amazing.
And you're like, Mike. Yeah, and if Del Tufo stayed for work, he could verify it, but he just leaves. You nailed it. I'm calling in because Susie's not here, so you can't accuse me of anything, Richard. Normally we can though, Jimmy.
Okay, well that's fair. Fine. We win this time. But I want to help you out, Rich, because it seemed like you were down on your jets when you were talking to Marco Sanchez. And Buddy.
there's only two coaches out of the thirty two teams That played at Texas AM. Man Campbell. And Aaron Glenn and Dan Campbell turned that culture around, and you're Jeff's going to be fighting Technis home to the 12th man winners.
Okay, we'll see it. No, I mean, but I think Sanchez gave a very clear-eyed analysis of the roster and the realities there that he saw in practice and preseason and also You know Garrett Wilson He's going to have to shake free of some doubles. And we'll see what Fields can do with his legs because that may be required of him. That's for sure.
Well. Aaron Glenn's played with the best 'cause he's an Aggie, obviously.
So he's going to get I'm telling you, you're going to be fine, buddy. I'm rooting for you. Do you want to cape for the actual current Aggies? What how does that uh team look for coll uh college football this year, Jimmy? Uh Uh it's it's okay, uh fourth in our division.
There's problems. be where we're looking at. It's just you're fighting in the SEC. That's all there is to it. The recruiting's amazing.
There's like only three bad teams you can count on beating in the SEC.
So it's just that. I guess what do we say, we're eating our own? we're going to have a one or two lost team in the playoffs. every year from now on.
Well, that's for sure. Thanks for the call, Jimmy. Good to chat with you. Bye, buddy. Say buddy.
Yeah, I mean, and again, that's why, you know, the Texas-Ohio State game. Played 15 years ago would be the highest stakes possible. An eliminator, essentially. Right. Yeah.
Um And Clearly it shouldn't be. Right? It should that so they're getting it right. It's just, you know. It's going to be professional football.
It's going to be that long of a season with, you know. payments and things of that nature. I don't have a problem with Yeah. I'm not going to sit there and have less of a good time watching this game thinking that the stakes aren't do or die. I kind of dig it.
That's another thing. Like a team should be allowed. to develop over the season just like a professional football team. And if professional football teams need time to develop over a season, Then a team Of 18 to 22-year-olds should be given that sort of wide berth as well, don't you think? A hundred percent.
How's Syracuse looking? You know, last year we had the new coach come in and we had a very favorable schedule. This year, the schedule is extremely difficult. Will be tough to kind of repeat last year's exciting, you know, on the verge of maybe making the playoff performance. But, you know, I'm hopeful.
If we can go 500, I think that'd be a good year. How are all your teams looking? How much time do we got? I mean, how many teams do you have?
Well, like, according to the team, you got a hundred of them.
Well, no, you got Penn State, you got Florida State. Penn State is going to be tremendous until we get to that one. Part of the schedule that we simply can't get over, and that's the dreaded team that I hate the most: the Ohio State and lowercase. And you play, where do you do you play them home or away? This year we play them.
We're at Ohio State in November. And so, I mean, until so, Keegan Michael Key is gonna have to watch from home. No, he could go. I don't know. Has he said anything?
But yeah, until Penn State's able to get over that hurdle. I mean, he's from the state up north. Yeah, and he likes. I'm sorry, I'm not done with my own agenda yet for you to finish your statement. My bad.
I'm sitting there. All right, now I'm done. Finish up.
Sorry? I'm finished now. I know that was it. That was Penn C's playing at the Rose Ball, October 4th. Hey, you're going to go.
Feels like we should go to that. Here you go. Let me call my buddy Martin Jarmont and see if I'll. Yeah, I don't think he's giving you tickets. Why not?
Because he knows you're not coming to you know eight clap I'll clap eight times. We're not coming to eight lap. Or I I mean. PJ's not. You know?
Drew Aller is could be in the running for the number one pick in the draft. Penn State's gonna have a really funny. They're number two in the ranking. Like I said, we're gonna be great, but it's that one game, man. And if we can get beat them, you're looking at an undefeated season and possibly winning a natty.
But. Gotta beat the Buckeyes. Anybody ask me a question? No, because we talk enough about your spot. We know.
I mean, I asked you how your teams are going to do it. But we've mentioned your team 36 times a day, and it's 11, 17. We know that you'll be okay. Are you guys going to be all right or what? No, I don't care to answer your question.
That's kind of nasty. No, no, I'm treating you like the NCAA.
So take $20 million away from me and not a win or a loss.
Somebody grab me a hand. Because you got nothing else on me. How's that for talking about my school? See, I'm not going to answer your questions. They got nothing else on your questions.
The NFL is thinking about suspending Jim Harbaugh for what he did at Michigan, which was cheat for a decade. Urban is saying that's what they should do because that's what they did to Jim Tressel years ago. And my response to that is just give Jim Tressel his wins and his championship back because it's a different time. The same way that the Heisman Trust gave Reggie his Heisman back because it's a different time. It's a different time.
It's so stupid what happened to Ohio State to Jim Tressel. Give it back. Give it back. I'm done arguing this with you. You don't have to argue.
There's no argument. There is. The NFL is not thinking of doing it. It's urban. But you're never going to see it the way everyone else sees it.
And if Urban keeps talking that way, Fox might not have him on the set in the big house. Because it's their decision. This is Richard the King level. Just on like donkey freaking Kong. Yeah.
Matthew in Seattle's been hanging on forever. What's up, Matthew? Save us. Save you from nothing. Hey.
What's up? Hey, Rich. How y'all doing? What's going on? What's up, man?
Can't be surprised Elf Tifo didn't make it to the third hour. Look at him all. Nice, Matthew. Nice, Matthew. Nice.
Matthew is it? What's going on? I'd like to do the win loss for the Eagles. Of course you would. You have a nice tapper on you.
So in Seattle, you're talking about the Eagles? I grew up in Delaware County. I moved out here during the pandemic. Look at you. You've been here long enough, though.
This is only the third Philadelphia Eagles win-loss. Really? Yeah. And one week from tonight, they're out. They're off the board for win-loss.
Can't do it. All right. What happens a week from tonight? Yeah. Yeah, I got it.
How could you be stunned, Matthew? You knew that was the way it was going to start. No, no, no, no, no. This mica thing is an evolving situation, so he's got to constantly take a dual account, but it's such a mess. It's got to win.
It's got to be a way. At the Chiefs. I think we lose. One and one home for the Rams. Yeah.
Two and one at the Bucs. Yeah, we win that one. Three and one home for the Broncos. We might lose that one actually, I think.
So, is that a might lose or a definitely lose? I think Billy Knicks is going to surprise some people, and that defense is really good. And I think it's going to surprise even the Eagles are not going to be ready for what comes. All right, so a quick way to bounce back: 3-2 at the Giants on Thursday night. Oh, Russell Wilson's getting embarrassed.
That's what they're doing. Four and two at the Vikings. That's a win. Five and two home for the Giants. I think by that point, Jackson Dark counts in, and we might lose.
Oh, wow. Oh, my goodness. Look at you. Losing a Jackson dart at home would be an O. Henry-like twist, but you're now 5-3 off the bye at Green Bay on a Monday night.
We lose. I think that's revenge for the money. Damn. If they're five and four. Having lost two in a row, it will be Uh five and four home for the Lions.
That's a win. Six and four at the Cowboys. That's a win. 7-4. We didn't even apologize to you.
Everyone apologized to you. 7-4 saying that. I expect that wasn't even an apology. 7-4 about the day after Thanksgiving against the Bears. I'll be at that game, that's a win.
All right. 8-4 at the Chargers on a Monday night. I think it's close, but I think we win. 9-4 home for the Raiders. Oh, that this is the one uh I think by that time I don't know if Ash and Genti's gonna be on a roll.
And I think he might be a lot. We might be gas, injuries. I think we lose that game a lot. Wow, my goodness. 9-5 at the Washington Commanders.
As somebody who got their undergraduate in the DC area and had to withstand the commanders. Fan for 10 years as an Eagles fan, I think he's been 10 and 5 at the Bills. I think we'll lose that one too. 10 and 6, home for the commanders. Then again.
11 and 6. Thank you for the call. Matthew in Seattle. That was um I think um The Eagles fans were tapped out the minute he said they lose to Jackson Dart at home. Right.
11 and 6 is that win-loss game. Adam Ray, is he here? Do I hear him in the back? Adam Ray is here. Let's take a break.

Adam Ray is here. If you can't tell where I'm from. Yeah. Look at this. Seahawks.
Seahawks, Sonics, Mariners. I mean. You got it all working, but I see the jacket. I see the hat. What do we call this ensemble underneath?
Midlife Crisis. No. I mean, I'm only 43. You can't. Yeah, but no, it's a shirt short.
It's not a onesie. No, it's from this company called Chubbies. And they. They sent me Seahawk. I mean, it's, dude, it's like, almost feels like a bathing suit, and then this just real thin material.
I'm all about comfy. I'm all about comfy at this point in my life, you know? I mean, you see Sandler, I remember seeing Sandler on talk shows being like, oh, that's how you do it. He wants to wear a suit and a tie. I mean, look at you.
You know, you look like you're just out of Jamba Juice and you're ready to play some pickleball or coach a shuffleboard team. That went um in Increasing order of disrespect.
Well, you started somewhat disrespectful. Very disrespectful. Extremely disrespectful.
Well, I'm not sure. You ended with... A pretty high level of dispute.
Well, just expect a really good Hanukkah gift this year. I think I came in hot because I saw my headshot that you pulled up from, I think, the first time I was ever here. I mean, look, my weight fluctuates. I definitely have, I'm definitely probably down 15 from that picture.
Okay, good. Thank you. Although, I mean, who. I don't know. Oh, God.
I don't know, man. I mean, that guy's off a bender. That guy just had a fentanyl cupcake and a Gatorade Zero, but not in that order. And that guy just invested in crypto. This is a guy right here who's still like, dude, crypto's coming back.
That's right right there. Yeah, you do. That guy's like, Mike Pence is going to run in 2035. You know, this guy, nobody wants this guy to be around their fantasy football league, their kids. Yeah, you're talking about investing in AI.
Right, he invested in AI. The movie was from Steven Spielberg. Yeah, they go. Nice. This guy, you know, I feel pretty good.
You know, when I didn't feel pretty good, two days ago, I went to our friend Burt Kreischer to do a Something's Burning. And I mean, I saw that, man. The picture. Yeah. So you were just on the Burt?
The Something's Burning. I can't tell. Is this a Burt cast? No, this was Something's Burning. When you and Cam Hayward and I did the Super Bowl, which was one of those where he was making the most inedible.
For a guy who knows how to eat, and I don't think Bert's a bad cook. It was an awful sandwich. I mean, I had a seizure and a panic attack at the same time. I mean, I'm not good with spice. My wife, shout out, she makes fun of me constantly because, like, Pico DeGallo is like, Mike, that's about where the train stops.
And I had a pepper. He made she-crab soup. Is that a. It was so bad. What Burt was doing in New Orleans.
New Orleans is home for. Doesn't matter. Just put it on the planet. Just put it on the plate. It's probably okay.
And even people in New Orleans were saying, You're putting that together? Yeah. That's how bad it was. Yeah, it was awful. I mean, I terrible.
It was bad. And so, sitting back again now. I'm back again, but Rob Lowe was there. I was like, there's no way he's going to poison Rob Lowe. He's Rob Lowe.
We need Rob Lowe. There's a few actors in this country and world that we're just never. I don't think, I think Rob Lowe. And, you know, you go ahead and pull up the DraftKings or whoever's betting on this, the Cashie or OnlyFo, whoever's betting on this. Rob Lowe, I think, lives to 250.
Seahawks win the Super Bowl. Mariners go to the World Series. Cal hits 70. Yes. And Rob Lowe lives to 250.
Hey, Rob Lowe. 250.
Now, let me ask you a question. Sure. You're Cal Raleigh, and your nickname is the big dumper. Love it. Jared Kelnan gave him that nickname.
Which is great. I'm sure it's done with love, but you're talking about the size of his ass. Yeah, dude. Awesome. And it's a dude.
It's a big butt, dude. And I went to spring training this past year. I'm wondering how this sentence finishes. And well, I did see Dylan Moore in the shower with a towel around his waist. And all I got to say is, dear diary.
I know we just sent him off there, dude. Talk about a major. And Julio was like somebody who was like, dude, you got to go take a shower and get the full, because I got to suit up and train with the M's after I roasted them at 9 a.m. And which, by the way, I had all these jokes about the ownership. And John Sands right there.
And he's like, you know, they told you no jokes about the ownership. And I was like, and I all, dude, I had this like thought where I was like, do I do it anyway? Like, because, you know, do I roll the dice? But you got to read the room. I did this roast of jelly roll last year in Nashville and Kid Rock was there.
And they told us no jokes about Kid Rock.
So all I heard was, do a ton of jokes about Kid Rock. And I was like, Kid Rock's here. Kid Rock, I'll make this quick. I know you got to get back to talking too loud at a Cracker Barrel. Crackle Barrel is actually how Kid Rock's live is going to end.
But it bombed. It got more last year than it did there.
So I'm like, don't roast the owner. Yes. Learn from your mistakes. Yes, sir. I roasted, you know, I was like, Julio, Rodriguez, look at Julio.
I was like, Julio, you know, I'm married, but I'm in room 216 of La Quinta Inn. If you want to stop by, I was like, look at that smile, dude. Every time you smile, you're in a Power 8 commercial. Those teeth are so white. Dude, I don't know what's more white.
Your teeth of your teammates. This feels like the clubhouse that Jaggie Robinson played against in his first game. I go, where were you guys on January 6th? And then Rowdy Tales, who's on the team, I go, Raddy, you're so fat and Jewish. I don't know if you spend more time in a synagogue or a Cinnabon.
And then I just went hard in the paint.
So, but what'd you say for Raleigh, though?
So, for who? To Cal Raleigh. Oh, so Cal Raleigh, I said Cal's got 50,000 followers on Instagram, 60,000 followers on Pornhub. And then, but anyway, so Cal. During spring training, he gave me his bat to take some swings.
And I was sitting off with Dan Wilson. It was just awesome. It was a fantasy camp. And I hit a couple ground balls and then I hit one. Semi-deep into the outfield, just connected.
I'm up there doing my Jay Bender stance right down the middle, and uh, you know, all these fans are watching. And he, Dan, had thrown a couple in the dirt. I was like, Dan, this is this is horse crap. Throw me something to put some, uh, you know, put the bat on. And I hit it and then ran around the bases.
I get up to Cal and I go, I give him his bat bag because he let me borrow it. And I go, I go, man, if you have a magical season, like, let this be the moment that you know that my juju. And he goes, yeah, man, he took the bat, he took the practice. He goes, I feel it, dude. I feel it.
And my buddy, who I brought to capture BTS wasn't rolling at that moment. If there was ever a moment to have a clip and then post like all his home runs after, I mean, I think he's going to hit, I honestly think he's going to hit. Oh man, I wanted 60, no problem. Which is wild, but I honestly think 70 is like, oh my god. I think he's just having the craziest idea.
It's like when teams just get hot at the right time and everything's clicking the way it should. I think he's just, there's no slowing down. And yeah, oh, he doesn't bet over 300. He's not MVP. Dude, you know, I'm sorry your dad didn't hug you.
He's fine. You know, he's going to. I don't know. We were talking about it while you were making your way here that we think he is the MVP of the American League. I'm sorry.
Also, look at the marriage. I'm a Yankee fan, too. That's right, dude. But Judge did miss some time. And what Raleigh is doing is something we've never seen before.
And now we know why. It's more impressive for the catch position, right? Used back in spring training, which normally would be the ultimate Ziggy. But look at you, man. I did it.
Everyone's wondering, where did this come from? Adam Ray's magic touch. There you go. You have to contribute somewhere. You can't just drink beers and scream at the TV.
You got to get out there, you got to fly to Scottsdale. You got to, you got to, you know, it was, by the way, being in full uni is like, I mean, dude, you got to do it with the Yanks. You got to just pull some strings. I'm just, whenever I watch a baseball game, and I swear I think about this all the time, is just imagine how amazing it is. That these guys are in their 30s, or even some of these managers and coaches, they get to put on a baseball uniform every day.
It's awesome. Every day, like they're eight. You know, and it it's that way, right? They're out there just being like, wow, I was doing this 25 years ago when I was a child. And in the same way that you're wondering, you know, okay, we don't bat an eye when hockey allows people to hit each other.
Right. Um Why is baseball the only sport where they make the coaches and managers and grown-ass adults and senior citizens dress like they're eight years old? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? Like, what if, like, Doc Rivers had to put on a basketball, like a Bucs uniform?
I mean, yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. And the hockey coach is still suit and boot. Right?
I like that. Did Emilio Estevez wear a suit in Mighty Ducks? Can we look that up? Can we look that up? Yeah, at the start of number two.
Yeah. Number two, I think. Then he goes back. Because then they got sponsored, right? Right.
It was, but I think he was like, I think just wearing like a Ducks jacket, maybe just a light polo, maybe a Haynes t-shirt. What if they made him back his old way? What if they made Andy Reid dress like he did in that punt pass and kick competition years ago? Like he, like, he's got to show up in a full pads and uniform for the Kansas City Chiefs. That would be weird, right?
But in baseball, it's just like, okay, whatever. I might meet Andy Reid. I'm going to the opening of Travis and Pat's steakhouse in a couple weeks. Oh, is that right? I'm assuming he'll be there.
1587. I'm assuming if the coach doesn't show up to the opening of your star's steakhouse, let me tell you something. If. Mahomes and Travis Kelsey are opening up. A random.
Yeah. A glory hole, but maybe Reed's going to be there. Yeah. That's one way to put it. But the way that I'm essentially saying, okay, is that if he's got a restaurant, he's going to be there.
But it's red meat, man. Like this, like, oh, yeah. He's not going to show up and order the fish, for instance. Yeah. You know what I mean?
Like, he will be there. And Andy Reid will get, he might get the first steak, and maybe he'll dress like this. Look at number 22 behind him. Could you imagine you're number 22 and you're just like, I got to compete? Like, he's staring at Andy Reid's big dumper.
Yeah, dude. You know what I mean? Like, and like, he's just right. Like, could you imagine they were in the same competition these two? How come nobody has done a side-by-side, like the best butts in baseball?
Like, the BBB? Like, I don't know. We've been talking about Cal's. You know, as for the last, you know, I guess two years straight. But, like, I'm right at the top of the dome, I'm just, I'm even thinking of Cecil Feeder.
That was probably up until Carol Rowley, Cecil Feeder, maybe. No, Bobby Bennett, I guess, was pretty spelt, but you got the Mount Rushmore of Big Dumpers. I mean, let's try to put it together. George Scott. Remember George Scott?
Ron Karkovice. Ron Kevis. Ron Karkovice. That's an odd choice. Ron Karkovice sounds like something you don't want to order off the menu at Chili's.
At 1587. At 1587. Actually, I do want to. You're going. You're going.
I'm going, man. I got the invite. I got the ball signed by them. I think it was signed by them.
Sometimes the signatures look a little askew to where you're like, is this just Alfonso Ribeiro and Tom Bergeron? Even though it says Travis Kelsey and Pat Mahomes. You know what I'm saying? Like, somebody posted the host. Say it again.
Americans Funny's Videos hosts. Tom Bergeron and Alfonso. And also dancing with the stars. That's right. Bergeron, dude.
What a legacy. What a legacy he's left behind. But there's a TikTok of Jeremy Allen White in New York and signing autographs for fans, and he literally just did squiggle, squiggle. And I'm like, at that point, don't do it. Yeah.
Do you know what I'm saying? Like, you know, I don't know. At least have one letter be legible. I know you're like, you know, time is money. You gotta move and shake, but.
You know, I've seen Harrison Ford do it. The H is there. You know, so you can tell people there's Harrison Ford, and they're like. It looks it could you know it could be You know, Henry Fonda. I don't know.
Who's another age name? Hunter Biden. Hunter Biden. Look at this guy. Hey, he's a great guy.
Big crackhead, but amazing son. Dr. Phil Live Show. You've done your last one or what? We did our last one.
We are announcing a last, last one. Oh, which hopefully you'll stop by at when it's the tickets are not on sale yet, and it's not even announced. But you know what? It's a good love, it's a lovely show.
Okay. Let's have this be a breaking news. Do we have a breaking news sound effect? Oh, yeah, we do. Hold on, hang on.
Hold on. We got it. We got the whole drop right here. I knew you did. We did.
Of course, we've got it. Here it comes. No, we got to. Give him the phone. Give him the phone.
Here it comes. And Mariah is seen. Breaking news. There you go. Dr.
Phil Life, the final show. Man, it's been two years of fun, laughs, and love. We got a Netflix special with the real Phil, but we're calling it quits. We're wrapping it up. And the final show will be December 16th here in Los Angeles at the Wiltern Theater.
That's right. The Wilton Theater. That's a nice thing. We're going big. We should do the comedy store for $350, but we thought we'd go big for the last one.
A couple thousand people. And we, do we have some surprises in store? This one, it's a week before the holidays. It's in LA. It's a Tuesday.
Tuesday night.
So you better bet.
So there's going to be people that are around and available. And I won't dress like I did the last time. No, dude, look at you. Man, this is. I don't even know why I decided to dress that way.
You look like John Stamos' boss in the Netflix show you. Remember when he played like the John Stamos was there? Is he? John Stanos was there. That very night, there you go.
You crushed it, though, Rich. Have you gotten any comments or DMs about your performance? Yeah, man. Of course. And plus, being on that stage, it's as classic as they come.
It's wild, dude. Wow. That's Tuesday, December. December 16th. Tickets will be on sale for even two weeks.
I will be there. I'll be there. I will be there. Come through. It's going to be a big part.
There's a big spot in Dublin, Ireland coming up. I'm going to Ireland tomorrow. A couple days. Yeah, go tomorrow, and then the show is in a couple days. And I've never been to Dublin.
I've never performed there.
So it's at the Vickers Street Theater. I know you guys got a big Irish following, right? Of course. Yes. So Vickers Street Theater August 31st.
And then we're just going to Italy to hang out for a little bit of time and vacate because no time off until the rest. By the way, I'm going to Indianapolis in September. September 12th through the 14th. Do you guys have any ties to McAfee? Do you know McAfee?
I'm trying to go on that show out there. Yes. Really? I'll hook you guys up. Wow, cool.
I mean, I can't guarantee a booking. I don't need the rich Eisen guarantee. I just need the Rich Eisen opportunity. Sure. Yeah, you got it.
Awesome. Amazing. I always wonder if you guys are friends with the other. You and Pat will have a great conversation. We've known Pat a long time.
Oh, cool. I assume so. Pat would be great. You know how people just assume they're like, oh, dude, you must know Keratov because you do comedy. I'm like, I've never met him.
I follow him on LinkedIn, but I don't know the guy personally. But in your world, I assume everybody, it's a smaller community of people at the top. Absolutely. Cool. I will handle that personally.
I love you, dude. Brookfield, Wisconsin, 26th to 28th, and then right here in Hermosa Beach, September 30th, AdamRayComedy.com. Thanks, brother. For tickets, the About Last Night podcast. Stick and stay for the rest of the program, please.
Please. I don't want to go anywhere. No, we want to do this. I think we should do this. We have, you know, we just throw words out there, phrases out there, asides every now and then.
We'll say, you know what, that's a good fantasy team name. Brockman writes them down all year long. Right. Next week, Paul Rudd will zoom in. He does this every year.
He chooses the name of the team, but we need to cull the list down to eight. Wow. And I'd love if you would use your comedy chops to say which would be the most comedic. Resonant names. I would be honored.
Okay. Maybe I'll throw a few of my own. The problem is, though, is we don't have a lot of context. Not a lot of context. Chris never writes down the context.
We try to remember that. But that's next. Adam Ray is here. Eczema. isn't always obvious.
But it's real. And so was the relief. From Eggliss. After an initial dosing phase, about 4 in 10 people taking EBGLIS achieved itch relief and clear or almost clear skin at 16 weeks. And most of those people maintain skin that's still more clear at one year with monthly dosing.
EBGLIS, Libricizumab, LBKZ, a 250 milligram per 2 milliliter injection, is a prescription medicine used to treat adults and children 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 88 pounds or 40 kilograms with moderate to severe eczema. Also called atopic dermatitis that is not well controlled with prescription therapies used on the skin or topicals or who cannot use topical therapies. EBGLIS can be used with or without topical corticosteroids. Don't use if you're allergic to EBGLIS. Allergic reactions can occur that can be severe.
Eye problems can occur. Tell your doctor if you have new or worsening eye problems. You should not receive a live vaccine when treated with EPGLIS. Before starting EBGLIS, tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection. Searching for real relief?
Ask your doctor about EBGLIS and visit ebglis.lily.com or call 1-800-LILLIRX or 1-800-545-5979. This episode is brought to you by Amazon Prime. From streaming to shopping, Prime helps you get more out of your passions.

I'm sorry. Wait, on the Dr. Phil live, Dr. Phil. Oh, should I do Sports Center?
I remember that's what we did on the Comic Store show. We had you commentate to life highlights. Remember there was like Brad Williams jumping off like an inflatable toy? He was, by the way, he's like, we got highlights for you to narrate. Image.
I almost set it up, and it was literally like nutshots, nothing but nutshots. But you were so good. You're so good, dude. You look, you talk, you react. And I just had to say, because I said it to Rich through text and off air, but goosebumps, chills, all the good feelings.
It was better. If somebody told me, hey, would you rather have your parents get back together or see Rich Eisen go back on Sports Center? I would take the latter every time. It was so hearing your compliments. Attached to highlight packages brought me right back to a, it's the same way music brings you back.
It's the same way when I hear Chumbawumba, I think of grinding on Brooke Alcart at a Shortcrest High School dance. Shout out to Brooke. She's married and has kids, but she has a husband's, I think, a big fan. But it brought me back. And hearing your voice and watching highlights, Rich, was, man, I was telling him, it got me emotional, man, because it took me back to when I lived in Seattle with my single mom at the time and just every morning watching you and Stew and like going to high school and starting, you know, I just quit football to play Danny Zuko in Greece and figured out that I kind of wanted to do acting.
And then now I'm down here and now I'm here. But like, so it took me all back, dude. And you crushed it. Thank you. I loved it.
It really was like putting myself in a time machine and just serving the sports comfort food. You know what I mean? You got to do it more than London. I I plan on it. I just don't know when.
I don't know when I'm gonna, you know, do it next. But uh they you know, they've been kind enough to ask and I'll I'll do it. It was too it was it was too much fun to not do it again. Yeah, dear. You're murdered.
And I just I just loved Uh doing highlights. And you put a beast quake in there?
Well, I mean, that was the top 10. Sports moment. They came up with the idea of how about top 10 NFL moments since you've. Yeah. Not since you last did sports.
And he, you know, I'm sorry I put number one being, you know, Malcolm Butler. I did see that. But, you know, I put that over the James Harrison touchdown because. That one literally decided the Super Bowl. I'm sorry, I can't watch it, by the way, which is wild.
Like, if it's anywhere, I've been in. Gyms, you know, and when I'm standing in there at the lobby of the Curves, and they're like, Sir, you don't have a membership. And I'm like, Please, I've used that elliptical before. They're like, You're not big enough. And so I or woman, and so then so I go, but when I see it on a TV pop up, I have to leave or just put my head up.
It's that triggering, it's wild. I was recalling this the other day. That um My first day I had walked into ESPN ever, it was for an informational interview with Keith Olbermann. I was just coming off my summer internship. And I got connected with Keith Olbermann.
For long story short, I I went there, and that was the day that Cordell Stewart hit Michael Westbrook to beat Michigan at the last second. And I'm walking around ESPN. It's a dream come true to be at ESPN, and I wanted every television set turned off.
So I know how it feels. And I can't watch that back either. Keith Jackson with the call. like the iconic voice of college football. And I'm at ESPN, and there's I'm a kidney candy store, TV sets everywhere, sports everywhere.
And I'm like, can I get a remote? To snap every friggin' television set off.
So I totally got that. Yeah, I'd rather watch my stepdad and mom. Get down than watch that Super Bowl. I'd rather be in the room and I've closed, but I'd rather be in the room and listen to the audio of that than see. You get what I'm saying.
By the way, Chief Seahawks, I was telling Rich, I got to call the radio Seahawks Chiefs preseason game. And the TV versions on NFL Network. TV versions on NFL Network. I got to call it. Being in the booth, childhood dream was insane.
Not only do our Hawks look incredible, Sammy D, SD card, as I'm calling them, new nickname, not sure it's going to stick. Every time Bobo scored a touchdown, which was twice, I go, let's check our watches. Yep, it's Bobo time. That has not gone on yet. What did you also say?
When we got a sack, I said, num, nom, nom, nom, num.
Somebody pull the bus over. We got a sack lunch for dinner.
Somebody pulled the bus over. Yeah, we got a sack lunch for dinner. And then Martinez, one of our running backs, got a touchdown. And I said. Can we reopen the kitchen?
We're serving touchdown salads. And Rabel goes, Oh boy, it's going to be a long night. Adam Ray is here. In the few minutes we have left in this hour. We have written down about 25.
Different asides that one of us have said, or one of our guests have said, that causes us to stop. Our conversation and go, that's a great fantasy team name. And we need this list culled down to eight for us to give to Paul Rudd next week to choose which is the fantasy team name that Chris and I are going to employ. uh in a fantasy league in which we are uh and TJ used to be part of it, but he's now Moved on, correct? You're going to get on.
I've got my own team, yeah.
Okay, so is Rudd also. Oh, I just got a text from Gavin Newsome. It's probably real. Is Rudd in the league or not? Rudd is not in the league.
He just picks our name every year. All right, here we go.
So just say this is usable or it's not.
Okay. Okay. Musk of Schottenheimer. Which Schottenheimer? It's Brian.
Right. I assume, Brian. I assume.
Well, we're going to go keep it or toss it. I'm going to go keep it. Keep it. Zubaz exterior. I don't know what that is.
For a second there. I thought you were about to say Zubag, but Zubaz sounds even better.
So, Zubaz, what? Exterior. Zubaz exterior. What is that in? I don't know any of that.
Zubaz. You remember the pants back in the day? Zubaz pants. All right, we're going to toss that. Complete football impotence.
Little long.
Okay. So toss that. Good use of the word impotence, but little long. Splash of insanity. Splash underrated movie.
Virtual insanity, one of my favorite songs, also grinded on Brooke Alcart for that song. Which, by the way, there's a playlist of just me and Brooke Alcart that is out there somewhere. We need that. Uh that so far is the top of the list for me.
Okay. Um keep tier martini My wife loves martinis, tear. All right. I don't know. It doesn't flow.
This one is Wahlberg's Theragun Pit Crew. Yeah, dude. I mean, we're going Wahlbergs, we're going Wahlbergers. We're going to anything Wahlberg, whether it's Donnie, Mark, or the other brother.
Somebody told a story about playing golf with him, right? And he had the Theragun? Yep. Oh, it's Nate Bergetzi told about it. Yes, that's a keep.
This one was, I know what this one, this was in the context of. Of Chief's fatigue, and everyone was sick and tired of bundle rooski of hate. Yeah. That's a good one. Yeah, that's a good one.
That might be in there. Ginger persuasion. Is it only redheads in that league? I guess so, right? I don't know.
So that's got to be the girl from the Wendy's girl, Santino, Bill Bird. I think Santino might have used it. It might have been Santino's, honestly. I don't think Santino's ginger, by the way. I think he dyes his hair.
I think it's a shtick. It's like Brad Williams. He's actually 6'5. Gene Shallot's mustache. Yep, Keeper.
Big Dom's lockbox from the Eagles. Lockbox is fun to say. It reminds me of Lunchbox from Little Giants. I don't know what. This is from finger gunned by Costner.
Yikes. Can we even still get canceled? Finger gunned by Costner. Shooting. We're keeping that nitpicking gosling.
Oh, anything with gosling.
Okay, keeper. Triple far V Lindy.
Well, tsunami of profanity. I think if it was tsunami profanity, but tsunami of you put the up in there, you just you made it a little too, you overstayed your welcome. Mission critical adjacent. Mission Critical is good. Again, dude, sometimes less is more.
Toss. Sizzle Shots of Curran. It's Tom Curran of. Tom Curran with Glamour Shots, basically. All right, we'll toss that.
John Lennon's hot tub. I mean, not only is that a great fantasy football team, that's a great restaurant that I love to open. Actually, that's a hot tub center I'd like to open. I used to, there was a place called Tubbs that I drove by in elementary school when my best friend's dad was driving us home from soccer. I had just scored on our own team.
He called me an effing idiot on the drive home. And then we drove by Tubbs, and I go, oh, is that Tubbs a sandwich place? Because there was also a sandwich place on Lake City Wave. Shout out called Tubbs. And he goes, no, that's a place where strangers go to have fun.
I didn't know what that meant until about two weeks ago. What's the next name you got, Rich? Vrabel Pinky Wave. Yes. I got one of those at the American Century Championship.
He waved at me with his pinky. A little Dr. Evil? And then last one: Locational Eskimo Brothers. I mean, dude, I think we can all look around the room and...
And say, hey, we all might have been in the same place at the same time at some point in our lives.
So keep it, yeah. Keep her. All right, we're going to have to call her. Can I throw in two? Can I throw in two?
