REShow: Bill Burr & Chris Jones - Hour 2

I know you're going to love this Chris. This is The Rich Eisen Show. Robert Salas speaking about Aaron Rodgers. If Aaron says he wants to play, he's going to play. Live from The Rich Eisen Show studio in Los Angeles. So painful to watch and makes it even more painful to think that Rodgers could actually return and if that happens, the Jets could be done because they can't score touchdown. Earlier on the show, senior writer for the MMQB, Albert Breer.

Coming up, Chiefs defensive end, Chris Jones. Actor, director and comedian, Bill Burr. Author, Don Mischer. And now, it's Rich Eisen.

That is correct. Oh, number two of The Rich Eisen Show live on the Roku channel. We welcome in anybody who's watching us live on every Roku device known to man. We say hello to our terrestrial radio audience, Sirius XM, Odyssey and more.

And we are thrilled to kick off our number two. The man who's sitting here to my right is film, Old Dads, the most watched film worldwide on Netflix for the first two weeks that it was out. Available on Netflix, which is available on Roku right now.

And Leo, the animated musical comedy with him and Adam Sandler will be available for streaming next Tuesday in time for Thanksgiving. The great Bill Burr. Good to see you, Bill. How's it going? Good to see you, man.

Good to see you, too. How was Madison Square Garden? It was amazing. It was amazing. And I did it with Dean Del Rey, Josh Adam Myers and Leah Sampson. And then my special guest.

Yes. Was Andrew Dice Clay, which I thought was perfect in the garden until he went up and started murdering. And I was just like, why did I just do this myself?

This could have been an easy thing. And he was like, his foot is not come off the gas pedal at all. And he was just leveling the place. Of course. And I was I was doing like I was 10 minutes right now.

He's only been on for three, like pacing back and forth. But he must have blowtorched the place. Yeah. I mean, that's his house. I once saw him.

You want to talk about complete ground zero. I'm from Staten Island. I saw him at Grandpa Al Lewis's comedy club in Staten Island. Oh, my God. Once upon a time.

And that little strip mall is little. I'm telling you, Bill, it was I'll never forget it. He came out, you know, to whip and post. Does that is that he stole his song when he comes out or no?

I don't know. I was hiding in the bowels of the arena. I was just hearing it sounded like a jet was landing. I was like, why did I do why can't you just have an easy night? Yeah, I love him. And he's a great guy. And he gave me this amazing intro and he gave me a big bear hug as I went on stage.

So if you told the you know, the 23 year old me when I started out this business that that was going to happen, like I probably would have fainted. I bet. Yeah, I bet you with the Knicks.

Two lonely banners hanging there in the in the arena. Come on, man. Why are you going to kick those people? You know, I'm going to kick them with the down.

Good Lord. I'm a Nick fan and I'm you know, I'm shout out to Spike Lee for sticking with the team. Unlike most those people in Brooklyn. Close my mind how you could just like they'd be like a new basketball team. Moved to Boston all of a sudden, like, oh, they're on the South Shore. The Randolph Rickenbacker's.

It's just like, what did I just invest all this time for? And they have all of this heartache invested in the Knicks. So when they finally win it, they don't get to release it because they left.

Yeah, they walked right. They went with the trophy wife that never won anything. The Brooklyn Knicks, some Botox lady from from Malibu comes into town, you know, with the red bottom shoes on and they all jump ship.

Don't understand. I know they had Durant and everybody there, too, at the time. So how many teams does New York need to win a championship? Thank God. Thank God for the Yankees.

The Yankees literally hold that team and the Giants. They hold the whole city up. Yeah. Everything else.

Yeah. It's just like it's a train wreck. They're carrying the load for the Jets, carrying the load for the Nets. Oh, the Rangers once. They have so many teams, three of them rhyme with each other. Bill Burr here on the Rich Eisen Show.

All right. So what do you think of what's happening with the Patriots and Belichick? That whole conversation about him, they're going to fire him is just scuttlebutt that was invented by the local radio where they were just like, it's just your time to talk about.

In other words, the phone lines aren't lit up and then it just catches fire and everybody's talking about this. You know, nobody's talking about who you're going to replace them with. The guy just coached a team for over 20 years. They were the team of the decade, two decades in a row. Nobody has ever done that.

The second is a little rough water for two seasons. It's like he has to go. He has to go. The whole league ripped off what he did.

The whole league has studied him. He's the modern day Paul Brown. Paul Brown's the only other guy that was that successful.

Paul Brown was successful 40s, 50s and into the 60s before he went upstairs and everything. So like most Pats fans I know are still basking in the glow. If you can remember back to what we were before he came there.

I mean it was horrible. I was standing in front of a bunch of guys on the passport control line leaving Germany the day after they just lost the Colts. And there were these three guys who sounded like straight out of Good Will Hunting just talking about, we used to be so dominant. We used to be so dominant. For 20 years we were dominant. Now the line that one of them said, they should have paid us to come over here and watch this game is what he said.

You know what it is? It's spoiled brats. They came of age when we were just going to go to the AFC Championship game every other year. We were going to go to nine Super Bowls and win six.

Nobody's done that. Especially in the modern era with 32 teams. You could do it back in the 23 skidoo when guys like you and I could make the team. There's always that one team that goes on a run when it was all white guys and during the off season they were doing construction.

Yeah, people could go on a run. On the canton patroons or whatever. Their leather helmets.

Yes, against the Bulldogs or whatever the heck it was. I am a die hard Patriots fan. I think this is way too early, way too early to even remotely think about.

That's another thing too. Who are you replacing him with? Chris, you want to chime in here Mr. New England over there? Who is the guy?

Gerard May is apparently on there. Also a lot of rumors of maybe trading for Mike Vrabel. A lot of rumors from who?

From the same people starting the conversation about how it's time to go. Exactly. It's all BS. It's all BS.

This is all because there's 24 hours of sports media. You just have to come up with some stuff. I don't understand.

It's like, okay, we're two and seven. We have no offensive line right now for whatever reason. Matt Jones is running for his life.

You're bringing Zappi. He's running for his life. The play can't develop.

You're going to have problems. And this is like, this is like why marriages don't work out. The second there's like rough water, people leave. And then what do they do? Do they stay single?

They get married again. You signing up for the same ride. So what are you going to do? You're going to get rid of Bill Belichick and you're going to bring some guy in with no rings.

That's correct. But it's somebody new. You want to chime in? You're the guy who wants him out, right? Don't you want to put that on me? Don't you backpedal. Don't you backpedal on me this early in the morning. Seriously? Look, he's got nothing.

He's just standing there trying to come up with an angle. You're one of those guys. You were born with a golden spoon in your mouth. 25 years is a long time to do anything, right? No. No? No.

It's like a third of your life. That's a long time to do anything. Okay. Like what? Give me some examples. You're already being vague.

Be a head coach of a football team. He's 72 years old. So what? Okay, so all you're saying is I think he's done it long enough? Like when are you tired of winning championships? He won his last one.

He was like 69. Bill, there are five year olds in New England right now that don't know what it's like to win. Exactly. Thank you.

That capitulation was all I was looking for. I know it's your job. But you have a problem with Bill's... I would say he's been terrible as a GM the last decade. He's really only hit on a handful of guys. Last decade when he won three Super Bowls? Yes, but he wasn't drafting well.

He was mortgaging the future to win right now, which is what you want. And we won. Because of Brady.

So what is the problem? Because of Brady. Because of Brady. Now it's because of Brady. When they won the first three, it was Brady's assistant. We're on the same team, Bill. Brady was a system quarterback that you could plug anybody in. Who said that? Everybody. When we won the first three, it was like, you know, if I had after Brady had three rings and people were still going, you know, but if I had to build a team around a guy. Wait a second.

If I had to build a team around a guy, I got to go with Peyton Manning. That's what they said. Then they win three more. Who's they? People. The sports media.

People. The same people are kicking Bill out. Well, you're... No, no, no. We're staying with the point that you just made. You just said because of Tom Brady.

It isn't. It's because of both of them. First of all, Tom Brady won six. One of those.

I agree that it's both of them. That Eagles one, which Bill Belichick never gets credit for, was his genius in preparing his team. So they were ready for that play. And everybody comes down on Pete Carroll. That play that whole year either was an incompletion or a touchdown.

That was it. It was a total safe play until you ran in to Bill Belichick. The Seahawks zero? Yes. You know what I hate about that is that everyone's like, oh, well, if they had just given it to Marshawn. You're assuming Marshawn would have scored because they ran the same play on the previous play.

Yes. And Donte Hightower with one arm made the tackle. That's true. Listen, he did a little cute play that should have been an incompletion or a touchdown.

But because of Bill Belichick having his team and Malcolm Butler prepared for that moment, Brady does have another ring. That is true. And it's not just him. It's not just him. It's both of them.

It's all of it. And for some reason, people in the sports media, all you guys want to do is just divide and just pull things apart. Like when I read the Boston sports media, when I read these guys, I'm like, are you even a fan of these teams?

Same thing when I lived in New York. All they were doing, they ripped apart Eli Manning his whole friggin career. He beat Belichick and Brady twice. Right. But but it's not the media's job to be fans of teams, though. You know that, right? No, I didn't know that. Yeah, it's not the job. What is the job? The job is to speculate and go, sources are telling me the people that I know close to the team.

Right. You're not talking to Robert Kraft. I actually he did talk to Robert Kraft like two days ago, but not about this. That's your sports relationship because he knows you have a show. Did he go, hey, don't tell anybody? He did not. But by the way, he's not telling me anything during the bye week.

We're going to if we lose. OK, little winky dink there. Bailey Zappian at the end of the game. He asks you about your family and he talks about Michigan. And you say, hey, Mr. Kraft, it was great to see you. And he says, it's great to see you enjoy the lobster. That's what happens.

And then he moves on to the next guy. The only thing that was different is it was salmon. It was salmon. Yeah, it was salmon. I was going to say, you look good.

You're trimmed down. You look like you had a nice Bob Kraft salmon as he was telling you these secrets. I don't know.

It was Frankfurt salmon. So I didn't know where it was coming from. This is safe with you, right? I can tell you I'm going to fire the greatest coach since Paul Brown, right?

You just host a radio show. You know what? I feel comfortable. There's something about you.

That's my job is to make people feel comfortable so they reveal that they're going to fire a coach. No, but you did get a sense, though, that people were kind of miserable around that team, which is what you are when you're two and seven. And you named one other franchise. Seven hour flights to go play football games, you know, when you're two and seven. When are they going to give up trying to sell that game to Europe? What game are you talking about? Football.

American football. They like it there, Bill. You should come.

You should come and do. I've been over to Europe. All they do is trash it. American football? Yeah. And then they always go like, Roy, why are you called football when you don't use your feet? Every single time it's just like, do you really think you're the first ones that have ever said that? I love how people in England act like we're not related to them. We're like that one night stand kid that they don't want to admit that they have. It's like, we look like you guys. We sound like you guys and we act like you guys. And they try to act like they're European when they don't even want to be part of it. And then you go over there, like they act like they're so friggin smart. It's like, I'm not blown away by the intellect when I go to England.

I'm like, these are the same meatheads I went to summer school with. They just have an accent. Roy, let's get some fish and chips. Bang on. That's old England and you're new England.

Yeah. They're all walking around like they were in powdered wigs and they're in parliament. Well, while you're on a roll, what do you think of the Michigan sign stealing stuff? It's just somebody over there pissed somebody off and they decided to go after them for what everybody is doing. Like every single college football game you watch, people are covering their mouth like Joe Pesci in Casino. They're holding up a sign.

There's like a slice of pizza, a picture of Urkel in the sign for pie. Why do you think they're doing that? And then also, I'm so sick of them acting like like stealing signs isn't an incredible skill. Trying to figure out the labyrinth that they've created that maybe gives you an advantage on one or two plays.

And I guess if it's a one point game and you want to say that that was the play that did it. It's just like they're not over there going like throw the ball to twenty two and you're like not supposed to look at them. It's all disguised. And if somebody can figure that out. Yeah.

Fine. But, you know, you do it to the level of the Astros where like people are wired up like they're trying to take down a mob family. That's you know, by the way, that's why you know that that was true cheating is because they don't even bring it up. I was watching the World Series and what's his face? One of the X pictures for the Braves is called, first of all, called the Astros a dynasty because in seven years they won one or two or whatever it was. And the first the first World Series, he called it complicated. The first championship was complicated.

It was kind of cut and dry for me. Did I miss something? That's when you know you cheated on a level that could actually mess with the integrity of the game. But if you get if you get going, like with some ticky tack crap like Michigan, like this will follow them. Oh, they're cheaters. They're this or that. They're not. They're not. Harbaugh pissed somebody off.

He definitely. And they just decided, like, you know what? We're going to enforce this rule that we really don't enforce on everybody else. But but but, you know, and you know, we're on the same side of this one.

And I mean, some dude was buying tickets and putting phones in people's hands and saying, take video of their of their sideline and zoom in on their signs and using that to potentially detect. It wasn't like some sort of question. And so that's not legal.

That's not legal. Go ahead and ask me questions. All right. What is my question? Like what? OK, so now he zooms in on it. And then what do you see?

The same slice of pizza, Urkel. And how do you figure that? Maybe I'm too stupid to realize it. Right there. But when I look at it, I'm like, I don't know what they're doing.

Neither do I. And that's why I went wanted this thing to be fully investigated before they actually sat Harbaugh down for anything. Well, they're doing the Patriots thing right now. So what they're doing is they're going like, all right, we'll prove it in court.

And then they're not going to be able to do it, I don't think. I'm guessing that's what happened with us. And then we beat him in court and then they came up with another way.

Well, we're a corporation, you're an employee, so you're suspended. So that's what they did. So you're going to lose.

Yeah, you're going to end up losing this. And it's just like, you know, this it's just all goes down to your relationship with the high. But like Indianapolis Colts, the level that they were cheating and that the way that they were allowed to cheat because they weren't pissing any Midwest people. They put the pants on one leg at a time.

Right. And East Coast people were idiots. We walk around, we think everybody else is dumber than us. And then eventually you get some Midwest guy in there. It's like, I'm going to shut these East Coast people up and then they come for you. With, by the way, an intercepted football. That's the crazy part about that deflate gate.

And it goes back to the it goes back earlier. Bill Polian didn't like how we were roughing up the receivers. So we got the rules changed. That's true.

Yeah, because they sat on the competition committee. It was hilarious. It was like Sopranos.

Peyton Manning throws four picks in the snow in New England and suddenly you can't touch receivers. You guys. Fantastic.

All right. That's what it did. Then they took away our strength and tipped it in their favor. Hey, good on them. But then don't come back at us and then you stole our offense and won a Super Bowl. Fantastic.

I get it. This is big boy stuff. But don't come back and start crying. Bill Burr here on the radio. It's like those those Trump guys. They're always going, I got your snowflakes after your feelings and all of that. And then you make fun of Trump. They're like, oh, my God, it's disrespectful.

It's like you say an F. Joe Biden. It's like you can't have it both ways. So that's my thing as a Pats fan. OK, it's just like if you're doing it to quit your crying.

Quit your crying. I mean, you know, how's your how's your wife's hands doing these days? Oh, they're fantastic.

I love my wife. You know where you stand with the guy walked in the arena. Everybody cheered.

She gave him the finger. Nobody got arrested. That's why this country's great. Everybody expressed themselves.

Can we all be adults? I mean, I don't know about you, but I came there to go to the fights. I didn't know I was going to the Republican National Convention.

My favorite thing was when Trump was going. Thank you. Thank you. You know, it reminded me of when O.J. got acquitted. Thank you. Like, I can't believe I'm getting off of this. Thank you. Thank you. He's another guy, Donald Trump.

He's getting the Michigan treatment. Do you know how many people you could accuse of that falsifying your assets for what they're really worth? Right. Like, how come they're not going after the banks? I can just walk into a bank and be like, my house is worth five trillion dollars.

Can I have a 30 million dollar loan? OK. My only pushback on that story is you said your wife gave him the finger. It was more than one. I think I saw. Right. It was dual. It was. We'll have to go.

We'll have to go to New York for the tape and take 10 minutes. Yeah. After further. No, I. She's hilarious. I've met your wife.

She's awesome. At Bill Burr on Twitter, at Wilford Burr on Instagram. We're going to take a break. Come back, show a clip of old dads available on Netflix and then talk a little bit about that movie and then obviously Leo.

Ben Tischler. Okay. Thank you. Want to make sure we get all that done? Yep.

Old dads available on Netflix. Mm-hmm. On, on, uh, stuff, you know, it was, we're sort of like, you know, we're commenting on a lot of things subtly. Yes. Cancel culture and then, but we also did things where like, I wanted to make sure in this movie, me and Ben, we were writing it, it's like, I didn't want to make old people right or old people wrong.

Yeah. Young people right, young people wrong. It's like, it's a little bit of both. There's a lot of old school stuff that still is good. There's a lot of old school stuff that was terrible.

And then nowadays there's a lot of young stuff that's good. And then there's stuff that's like an overcorrection. So I wanted people to be able to fast forward through the movie, look at my character and at some point be like, I like this guy or like, man, why did he say that?

Oh, this guy's like a jerk or whatever. And like, that's to me as a human being, which is why I just feel it's so stupid to try to sum somebody up in like, you know, one, you know, comment on social media or my favorite, they go back years and years. He has said this 11 years ago, it's like, you had to go back 11 years. I've been a good guy for 11 steps. That's a dynasty run of incredible behavior. But you blow off the first 11 years, you find the worst, my worst moment and you're like, that's who you are as a person. I mean, within reason, if the 11 years you wrote like ago, you wrote like, I'm so psyched. I finally joined the clan. Then obviously that's, that's the sticks that would stick.

But I mean, if you do know, he had a little rough take on marriage or whatever. So no, but I found like, you know, that being a dad now there's like, I later in life, I had enough time to kind of undo this and examine the stuff that was done to me. And I've been able to get rid of a lot of like the the bad stuff. And you know, one of my favorite things about my kids is they're not afraid of me. They come home. I mean, it makes me have to say things twice, but they know the tone the second time. But but like, you know, yeah, they, I come home, they just like jump on me. They just, you know, like I'm a trampoline to them and I'm like this fun guy. And I really, I feel like it works out better in the house. If the woman is more of the, you know, when the, when the hard thing kind of has to happen, it's just better with female energy.

And then I'm just like the backup cop. You know what I mean? You know?

Yeah. So you're, you're saying Renee, your wife is, she's, she's the, yes, Nia, Nia, Nia, Nia, like she comes in. So she's the disciplinarian in the household? Is that what you're saying? I overcompensate for my childhood.

So she has to kind of rein it in. So like this morning, my son asked for pancakes. I made him pancakes. And then my daughter comes down afterwards and was like, dad, why, why did you do that? I wanted a Dutch baby, which is like a German pancake. So I said, all right, so I got that going. So then my wife comes downstairs, she goes like a daughter hasn't eaten yet. And I pulled the Dutch baby out, like we're at Denny's or something. And she's just going, this isn't how it's going.

We're going to be late for school. Cause I messed it up. I threw it off. Yeah. Okay.

And you know, so then, you know, my daughter is, my wife was given a rough time about sort of looked at me and I, I had, I, you know, I back her up, you know, you gotta, all right. So how, by the way Bill Burr, old dads, co-wrote it, directed stars in the movie, crushed it coming out of the gate. O'Connor Valley, he's the best man, uh, uh, Bokeem, Woodbine, Katie Azleton, uh, Jackie Tone. I know I'm going to forget somebody, uh, um, um, uh, Rain Edwards. I want, there's one surprise in the end. I can't say who that is.

Let's not do that. And there's two, two of them in there, two of my favorite actors growing up that we got in there and we just had, um, Miles Robbins, um, I don't know. Okay. I'm gonna name the whole cast. We had, we had a great time.

And it will definitely comes across. And so, um, what, why just, you figured how old are your kids? How old are they right now?

Um, three and a half and going to be seven. Okay. You got to think about that for a second. Yeah. Well, I mean, time marches on. That was a very Antonio Cromartie moment right there, right?

No, it's just like every time you get them used to them being an age, then all of a sudden it comes around again. Okay. So you just decided, Hey, I got this part of my life. I want to get this stuff off my chest. Russ it down right about. There was an idea that I had and I brought it up to Ben Tishler and Ben's like, we should write this. Okay.

And I said, fine. Now me, I would have stuck with it for three days, but Ben has a work ethic. So he kept showing up.

So he's the real re he's the reason why the thing got made. He's the reason why Bobby kind of volley ended up being in it because he was working on another project and we just kept hanging in there, hanging in, but we got to make a decision. We got to make a decision. We're running out of time. And I finally just said, listen, man, we're not going to get this guy. And Ben was like, no, the hell with that.

We're getting this guy. And then we figured out something. It was so stupid. All I had to do was just call him directly and he's like, yeah, I'll do it. And then I had to have, um, bill block who was with, uh, Miramax at the time, call him and then they were like, all right, cool. And then it happened. And he jets Patriots conversations between the two of you on the set.

Anything like that? No, we had, we had, uh, no, he's not going to bring up jets. He's going to be brought up. Yeah. Bobby wanted to win, man. He brought up the Yankees. Okay. So there's rare, there's very rare Yankees jets.

I'm you're looking at another right here. Cause you know, cause of a men of a certain age, I guess an old dad, uh, back in the day in New York, you used to root for the same teams that played in the same stadium. Mets jets, giants, Yankees. That's the way.

So how did you go? Giants jets. Like my, my brother was a met jet.

He's two years older than me. I was a smart enough guy to realize when catfish hunter and Reggie Jackson came to town, maybe I should hop on that bandwagon. There you go.

Is what I say. It's a young classic New York fan, no loyalty, split naces and every blackjack table, which one Mets jets. No, you guys don't like that. I was a, uh, I was a precocious young man who realized if I wanted some championships, I had to hop off the Mets bandwagon. You know what? You chose happiness.

I did. And I'm happy for you. I appreciate that. So yeah, cause I always said, you can tell just walking down the street, you can tell a giants, Yankees fans versus Mets jets. It's all in the shoulders. Come on, no giants, Yankee fans and walking down that shit.

They kind of have like that. There really is two New Yorkers, right? There really is. There's that guy down there on wall street, crushing it. And then there's that sad sack at Tad stakes with the beat up Mets hat.

I mean, it's just, you know, it's funny. I did, uh, when I, when I was doing efforts for family with the great Mike price from, uh, from, uh, uh, the Simpsons, he used to have you buy a brand new Mets hat every year and right around the second week of April, when he would come, you'd always be excited for him. Second week of April, he'd walk in his office, he had a glass office. We would all watch and just see him. He'd take the head off and he just, he's the greatest, most big hearted guy ever.

And he would come out and we would just feel like they lost again. It's like, yeah, you know, they just say, I mean, you're going to see the Met fans are like John Stewart. He's a diehard Met fan Seinfeld, you know, they're, they're all met fence, by the way, the greatest clip. And every time I watch it is, is that when, when the Mets manager comes out, you gotta give us a shot. You gotta give us a shot. It's my favorite thing is the umpire.

He's like, Tommy, listen to me so I can hear what I'm saying. Did you ever see, have you seen the, uh, it's on YouTube, uh, Earl Weaver getting ejected. Oh, which one?

Uh, the one where it was funny, uh, I've won more than I lost. Um, yes. Yes. And he goes, you, he tells the, uh, the umpire who's ejected him on the top of the first, you could see in the back of the background, it's at seven 32 at night. Like literally he got ejected an out into the game over a balk and, and, and the umpires wired for sound for, I think like inside edition or something like that.

That's the backstory. Bill Holler's the name of the umpire and, and, and he took currency. He starts the umpire. He goes, you just watch five years from now, I'll be in the hall of fame. And the umpire goes for what Earl?

For F and up world series. No, we're going to the hall of fame. Just that goes, Hey, I've won more than I lost. He goes, no, yeah, I meant games. My favorite thing that he says, he goes, you came here for one reason and one reason only. He goes, and what is that early goes to F us. Like he came to Baltimore.

It's like, you know, I wasn't supposed to ump this game, but I am coming here specifically to take out Earl Weaver. You probably believed it. You know, my gosh, that's so funny. They don't make them like that anymore.

Leo available for streaming next week, Tuesday, November 21st on Netflix, available right here on Roku. You play squirtle the turtle. Yes, I do.

And they looked at my head and they said, this guy can play a turtle and sandals in it as well. And you got, are you singing in this? Do you sing in this? Uh, no, not that I recall.

I don't think I ever sang it because this is a musical. Yeah. Okay.

Yeah. I mean, but it is a comedy. So I mean, if they do that part, well, yeah, if I, that would have been, it made it even funnier for listen to me try and sing, dude, you must be psyched. Your kids, the seven and a half and three, this is, they're going to be fired up to see this. Have they seen it yet?

No, they haven't. There's a, are you going to tell them that you're the turtle or are you just going to pop it on for him? I don't know. I think it might be weird. What? Just to not tell. It's just dad's voice coming out of a turtle.

So they'll just be like, I don't know if I want to like ruin that, like that thing. Oh yeah. There, there's the man right there.

That's that right there. That guy is the, just, he's the greatest. He is. He is the greatest. He's the nicest, coolest guy ever that's done $20,000,000,000 in box office.

I met, I met him at Yankee stadium when I was on sports center, 20, geez, it was when the Yankees were going on their run, it might've been like the 98 world series or whatever. And he stopped for absolutely every single person that came and asked him for a picture and an autograph. And this is back in the day before cell phones, there was like actual like cameras and people out of, you know, uh, you know, focus and, and, you know, ask people for, everybody asked him, right. He said, he said yes to everybody, every last human being.

He's a good dude. Yeah. And he's still doing that. So it wasn't an act. So this is fun for you. I imagine.

Right. Yeah, no, it was a, uh, it was a great time. And it was also something that was, um, you know, uh, you know, Robert Smigel was on it. So we, we did a lot of it through, like they would zoom in. I can't remember what it was during the pandemic or not these animated things take a while, but like, uh, it just kept getting funnier and funnier and just watching it like slowly coming together.

Okay. And, um, you know, cause that's like the big thing, like what is the animation going to look like and, uh, which I think is so huge. And then when, you know, they're just like sketches at first and when it finally came together, I was like, oh man, this looks like it's going to be great. So I haven't, I've yet to seen it yet to see it, but, um, it's, uh, yeah, I mean, I, we got the premiere on Sunday, so I'm going to go to that and, um, yeah, I'm looking forward to it. Oh, good.

I'm psyched. Fantastic. By the way, I had a great time at the UFC. The fights were unbelievable. Yeah.

Okay. And thank you to Dana. He hooked me up with the, with the tickets. What did you, what'd you like about it?

This is 295, right? When you sit that close and you just sit the same angle, it's different than them jumping all around with the edit and stuff. There was just something like, it was like a, this is like a fight. These guys are fighting, these women are fighting like right in front of us and you could see like adjustments because she was so close and it just seemed like one fighter would just figure the other one out a split second earlier because they were very evenly matched that night. And with the kids, I don't know anybody's name, but it was just like that level of like athlete and then just the guts that it takes to walk into an arena shirtless, fight another guy that's one of the greatest fighters and athletes. And then it was fun, you know, Joe Rogan is an old friend of mine and it was just really fun watching him, you know, every once in a while there was like a big hit, you know, and I would look over to see if he's doing, I love when Joe does that and then watching him like, dude, like it's, it's not a short walk for him to go all the way around to go up there and be having to be thinking like, I guess in that short walk, he thinks of like all the questions he's got to ask because it's all like improv and stuff and he's so good at it and obviously knowledgeable with his background of fighting. That was another thing. It was like, it reminded me back in the day, being a huge fan of Letterman and going to a taping of it and then being blown away by like, Oh my God, like, like the desk is right there. I thought this place was like so much bigger and seeing in between the commercials, what happens listening to the band, it was the same thing to sit that close and like, just those little things just, Oh, Joe gets, Oh, that's when Joe gets up. And then he goes around there. And I was like, I was sort of geeking out about the whole thing.

To 95 UFC in Madison square garden where you crushed it as well. You're the best man. I love when you come in here and you'd crack me up and you always get a Michigan fan that helps. Well, that offsets the, uh, the new England aspect of it, but I married a new England family. It's okay.

I married into a family of mass holes. That's for sure. Oh, that's all right.

What? So you're a Jets fan, huh? I am.

Yeah. I'll be honest with you. I knew the Patriots weren't going to be that competitive this year. Oh, this was a kick in the nards and total kick Aaron Rogers going up again, cause it's sort of a foregone conclusion that the bills were going to win it. And can they finally get past the chiefs?

And I was so looking forward to like all football got cheated that unlucky injury. So I'm hoping that Aaron Rogers comes back, uh, he may better than ever. He may know he's definitely coming back, but this year is what I'm talking about. It's entirely possible.

He comes back this year, which would be insane. You know, I did it like 20 something years ago, maybe, I don't know, don't you just go to Germany and they like spin your blood and they get like a cadaver. I just came back from Germany.

I didn't see that. That's why you look so good. You got your blood spun over there. Look at me and my platelets shining with Bill Burr. Good to see you, man. Thanks for coming. Great seeing you too.

Thank you so much. The great Bill Burr. Everyone check out right here on Roku.

The host of the medium popcorn podcast, Brandon Collins and Justin Brown.

Okay. So Paddington 2 had like a hundred percent arrived tomatoes for you. You guys ruined that?

Justin came in and like took it down like two points because of his rating. That's the time we started getting death threats. Yeah. I'm not surprised.

I just worshiped that movie putting on airs. The podcast is on YouTube and wherever you listen. Welcome back to the Rich Eisen show and thrilled to have here right now, getting ready to take on the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night football, truly one of the best in the national football league.

Certainly had his position as well. The great Chris Jones of the Kansas city chiefs. How are you Chris? Great. I'm doing fine. I appreciate the nice word. True story.

Not a single word that I said is incorrect or a lie. Last time I saw you was just real quick in Germany, as you were getting ready for your press conferences there in Frankfurt. Did you get out and about at all in Germany? Yeah, I explored a little bit. You know, we got in on like a Friday, we had practice and I was able to go out and eat at this Asian cuisine.

Okay. What'd you have? It was pretty interesting. What'd you have? I took out the D line. We had like a buffet, the marriage was treated as well. Hold on a second. What does a German buffet for the defensive line of the Kansas city chiefs look like?

Please paint the word picture for me, Chris. What was it? Okay. We ordered the duck, the pecking duck, came out with the wraps and everything. It was pretty good.

Okay. We got three steaks, three different steaks, like a ribeye and something else. We ordered potstickers, we ordered like three dozen, I mean, three dozen of potstickers. We ordered, yeah, we ordered a bunch, man, it came out to like $1,700 worth of food.

That sounds pretty affordable. How many people? How many people? How many guys?

Like five. All right. Very good. That's not bad. Not bad. And you... That's not bad.

No, not at all. And you picked up the whole check, Chris? Yeah, you did? Yeah, I thought about it.

And I was like, you know what? I'll do it. I thought about making the rookie pay.

I thought about making the rookie pay. Okay. Understood. Back here on the Rich Eisen Show, Chris Jones of the Kansas City Chiefs joining us here on the program. And so what was your sense of the crowd in Frankfurt? Did you hear them singing and chanting and stuff like that while you're playing the game against the Dolphins?

No, it was amazing, yeah. It's just the only thing, it was cheer for everybody, offense, defense. Miami score, they're cheering for Miami. Miami defense, they're cheering for Miami.

So at one point, I didn't know who was representing who. It was just the fans was there to cheer. It was fun, though. Amazing atmosphere. The stadium closed for us.

Unfortunately, I wanted that open. They got a huge jumbotron coming down. So it's like usually when you're playing in a regular American football game, the jumbotron is like north and south. Up there, it's like the NBA arena.

It's like up top. So that was kind of different. But overall, it was a great experience.

Yeah, sure was. And so the word that we were hearing leading into that game, Chris, because you had just come off of a rare division loss, certainly against Denver at Denver, is that Andy Reid kind of gave everyone a little piece of his mind earlier in that week, set the tone. And you guys were treating that coming off of a loss like you. You came off of one of the worst losses you've ever had in Kansas City, and you treated this game as the ultimate get right. Is that an accurate assessment of how you walked into that game against the Dolphins?

Yeah, that's pretty accurate. I think we had beat the Broncos like 15 times in a row and haven't lost to them in the way we lost to them with multiple turnovers. And they was able to get a couple of first down on us on the ground, running the ball for us. You know, we take pride in stopping that. We take pride in getting our office the ball back in our office. You know, we couldn't we couldn't get it going.

And so I think it was an overall loss on both ends and we both felt it. So this game we was coming out, my friend was we got to get back on track. We had to get back to Kansas City football. So, you know, going into Miami, we knew it was a number one offense. We heard all year about how we're going to stop the number one offense and lose was just go play physical and get back to Kansas City Chiefs football. It certainly looks like, Chris, you're this is the best defense Kansas City's had in quite some time. And certainly since you've gotten there, would you agree with that? Yeah, so far, so good, you know, still eight more games up in the season.

I don't want to jinx us, you know, by two not horns so early, but so far so good. In the first eight games, just the best I played in. And I've been with some great players. I got to play with Eric Berry, Justin Houston, Bob Sutton, D.C., and ever since Spad's been here, you know, I think this is the most complete defense I've been a part of. So what does he do?

What's his special sauce that you guys clearly are buying what he's selling? Well, the main difference what people don't know is Spad's wife moved to Kansas City. And that changed the whole game for us. She hasn't been living in Kansas City.

And this is her first year living in Kansas City. That must change. Yeah. What do you mean by that?

How do you mean? Just because he's personally, you know, happier, more focused, not he doesn't have a split family here. You know, he has his family here and he has his wife here. You know, when you have your significant other around you, it just makes you a better person, honestly.

And I think that's what she being here has done for him and has done for us. How about that? Okay. Yeah. I mean, sometimes the personal means all the difference. You know, when you're talking about all the difference.

Yeah, it sure does. And then you are you playing at the like, how much better can you get? It seems like you're gonna get a lot better. Like what? Come on. Like, what can you get better at Christians? Like, we can get more sex, man.

We can get more TFLs. We can find ways to, you know, get me more one on ones, man. But I understand it. I mean, there's guys around me like George Karloff this and Mike Dana having career years so far.

So, you know, with those guys doing so well, you know, it's eventually gonna lighten it up for me. Well, actually, here's here's how you can get better, if you don't mind me pointing it out. You can you know, you can sack a quarterback, rip the ball out of his hands in the process and sack him and not get called for roughing the passer because you know, you have no you don't use any of your arms to get down on the ground, you know, I mean, maybe maybe there's that that that that play last year and again, you know, you know, my voice was on the roughing the passer video that got sent around last week. As I voiced over that, that was one of the most incredible athletic plays I've ever seen that was on Derek Carr last year. And you got called for roughing did what? How do you not get called for another 15 yard penalty?

Arguing that Chris, how does that? Listen, man, I've been I've been voicing my opinion about this roughing the passer for the longest. I definitely think it's something that the NFL PA should look into bringing replay into it. Because plays like that happened so fast and the referee is like, they got to make decisions on a split second, you know, they don't have time to dissect whether he put both hands down or did his body land on it. So they're basically making a decision off the eye. And sometimes it can be misconstrued.

You know what I mean? And the next week following Grady Jared said Tom Brady and landed on his back, Grady Jerry landed on his back. It was called for roughing the passer. And that's why I feel like a replay should be initiated on roughing the passer calls because now, you know, they're throwing players out of games for that.

So yeah, that I hear you, Chris Jones here on the Rich Eisen show. What is the meaning of this Super Bowl rematch, Chris? How are you viewing this Monday night matchup against Philadelphia?

It's important. I think this is the best team in the NFL right now. They got the best overall offense and defense complete team when you look at it pound for pound.

And this would be a test for us, you know, I'm looking forward to it. You know, I know this is a great team. So it's always good to get that competitive spirit. But it's also Monday night football and Monday night football in the Arrowhead, which is special to me. So the Super Bowl means nothing in terms of the rematch. Want to make sure they understand that you have dominance over them or the penalty at the end of the game last year that a lot of Philadelphia fans are still talking about didn't mean a difference, Chris, anything like that? We already won the Super Bowl, man. Unfortunately, we already won for them. But I think this is a completely different team for them, which gives us a challenge. They got a completely different roster.

I think they've been better than they were last year. So I'm looking forward to for it to be a competitive competitive game. You know, the brotherly shove is coming in your direction, Chris, right? You know that? Right? Yeah, it is.

It is. They just asked me about that. I'm going to stop it. I haven't been stopped all year, but we got to plan for it. We got to plan for it. We're going to watch a few rugby games and I got a rugby friend. I can't disclose his name, but I got a rugby friend who has been telling me a few little pointers on what I can do to stop this.

It is a fascinating. You're not joking, right? Because this is I'm not joking. This is a rugby play. It looks like rugby out there.

It is. So you have reached out to people who are experts on that subject matter on how to potentially defend this seemingly unstoppable play. Yeah, the only people who have stopped it was a few games back, Washington Redskins when it was in the red zone and Justin and from fumbling the ball. So that's the only time it's actually been stopped, stopped, but I don't reached out to a couple of rugby guys and we got some little pointers on some small detail things that we can do to affect that play because, you know, I mean, rugby scrums are known for a lot of things can happen in those piles. You're not talking about that, Chris. Right. You're not talking about that in the rugby pile. No, I can't say I can't say the scrum.

All right. OK, so have you met Taylor Swift yet? Chris, has that happened? I haven't.

I haven't. First time she came, she invited us all to dinner, but I was so tired of like my second game back and I was like, I'm exhausted, you know, I'm exhausted. I went home and got in bed. And OK, I think when she comes this Monday, we can all go out. So I'm looking forward to OK, so you were invited to a dinner right after a game by Taylor Swift, you know, and by Chelsea, Chelsea invited a bunch of guys, but, you know, OK. And you said, no, you turn that down, Chris. So no, I didn't turn it down. I was just too tired to go. OK. All right. All right. Oh, my God, don't you dare do that. No, no, no. Don't y'all do that to me. It's kind of like a yes or no equation. You know what I mean?

You're saying there's a gray area here of being just too tired. You know, listen, I'm part Swifty, OK? I support the Swifty's too. OK, what's your favorite song? You got to say your song on that? I've been listening to this song. Hey, it's me. I'm the one, it's me.

OK, fantastic. It's me. I'm the one, it's me. Well, Karma is a guy on the Chiefs. That's the one. You could just say Karma from now on. That's an easy one. Oh, yeah, I've seen it.

Things are leading up between them, huh? I like it. And maybe, just maybe, that's why you turned down or, hold on a minute, went to sleep, turned in. How about that? You didn't turn down, you turned in. Turned in. I like that. All right. You didn't turn down, you turned in.

It's because you knew this was true love and there'd be more opportunities, that she'd be back. Absolutely, man. How about that? Travis Kelsey. He's a lovable guy. I knew.

It's so if he moves, he's going to get a comeback. Chris, thanks for the time. Greatly appreciate it. Love watching you play football and I hope to see you again soon.

Thanks again. Rich, it's always a pleasure and Rick Buchholder told me to tell you hello. Tell him I said hello back.

I saw him in Germany as well. You take care of yourself, Chris. Yes, sir. You got it.

I definitely will. The great Chris Jones of the Kansas City Chiefs getting set to take on the Philadelphia Eagles. Reaching out to some rugby experts. Interesting.

That's a rugby play. Did you see his face when you said he got very, it was, I'm like, you're not joking, right? Interviewing and he got dead serious. I know. Not joking. They've got a plan. Let's see. Chris Jones.

I mean, they've run it against Aaron Donald too. I mean, these are, these are the best of the best of the best understood. Great interview. That's a nice football headline. Top of the fold headline from this interview, Chris Jones turned down the chance turned in to go to dinner with Kelsey and Taylor Swift.

And as, as it, listen, as, uh, as, uh, as I'm defending Chris Jones here, um, he turned in, not down and he knew true love conquers all. Yeah. I'll get to the next one.

I'll get to the next thing. I was a fun hour with Bill Burr and Chris Jones as I'm sitting right here at the Rich Eisen show desk, furnished by Granger with supplies and solutions for every industry Granger has the right product for you call click Granger.com or just stop by. That was fun. The director, the famed director of Olympic opening ceremonies and Oscars and Superbowl half times. Don Mischer is going to be in studio next. He's got a new book called 10 seconds to air. You want to know the backstory of Prince?

Yeah. You want to know the backstory of Michael Jackson, not, not, not Oleg, Mike, Mike Oleg story of Michael Jackson, Michael Irvin story of Michael Jackson sneaking out of the Super bowl halftime locker room to check him out. I need to know these things that's coming up and Muhammad Ali's torch lighting in Atlanta. That's all coming up.

That's my idol right there. So that is it. The Prince was reigning at that Superbowl. I remember Colts there and there was no, there's no coverage, uh, Joe Robbie. There's like, I think, I think there may be one section that overhangs over the other.

And I remember I watched some very wealthy television executives coming in after halftime drenched like total, total drenched is basically what I'm saying. Is that the one Del Tufo mixed? Did he mix it? Should we ask Don Mischer about it? Well, he's not here.

He didn't mix anything. Okay. Pre-game post game.

Should we ask Don Mischer about Mike? Let me hold a minute. Let me see. Is there an index? Is there an index in this book? Please tell me there's a Del Tufo chapter.

Let me see. There's an index. Oh, well, sting is in the index. Uh, Taylor comma, James, here we go. Petty comma, Tom, uh, Powell comma, Colin, Obama comma Barack. Yep.

I've heard of him. How about this one? Oswald comma Lee Harvey. Ooh. Whoa.

I don't know what that's about. Uh, Katie, let's see Del Tufo. Here we go. Is there a Del Tufo comma Michael? There's a Denver comma. John. Ooh.

Rocky mountain. And a Davis comma Sammy Jr. Hey, now there is no Tufo comma Mike, everything ready to bad. Come on.

This is going to be fun. For decades, Rolling Stone has set the bar for entertainment publications. Today, Rolling Stone Music Now takes over in podcast form. We have Michael Azerrad, who was Nirvana's very first biographer. I'm not sure how many people realize how many of the best songs on Inutero were written way beforehand. To be fair to Kurt, he was also a new father. There was a lot of stuff distracting him. It wasn't just drugs, although that was certainly a major factor. Rolling Stone Music Now, wherever you listen.
