Speaker
Hi.
Slayer Concert Anecdote
00:02:08
Speaker
Hey Nick, do you recognize that band? Yeah, that's Slayer. One of the few bands that Andy has taken a nap during. One of the few, that's right. Very comfortable and warm, easy to fall asleep during. It was quite soothing. Hard to forget. Easy to remember. We call that segment the Slayer Second.
00:02:37
Speaker
because I was one second of Slayer. It just felt longer. To wet your whistle.
Nick's Recurring Guest Appearance
00:02:44

Welcome Nick, you're a special guest. It's always a pleasure to have you. Do you want to know why I know that? Why? We had a meeting this week at Amelia's school for, you know, whatever. And she told the assistant principal that her dad has had a podcast since she was in first grade. No. Yeah. And I was like, what? So three years, she's in third grade.
00:03:37
Speaker
That's amazing. It was good on us to start in and first grade because it's going to be easy. We got 12 years. We don't have to think about this stuff. Easy it to remember. Hard to forget. Let's kick off today's show with some Q's and C's.
EECOM Mascot Debate
00:03:53
Speaker
Question number one, Jeffrey. Yeah. Does EECOM have footage of the mascot game from last weekend?
00:04:05
Speaker
Well, thank you for that question. Question number two. Should cam and go to Jacksonville this coming weekend? Tickets are cheap, uh, but we're not sure if it's safe in Jacksonville. Nick, thinking nick you've been to Jacksonville, right? yeah Yeah, I've been to many places in Florida. Um, but some of those places when they're not safe can have great great dives, great food. And sometimes when you're not safe, it's more fun. It's living on the edge a little bit. Yeah. Hopefully, hopefully Kamen, I get this posted right away and Kamen listens right away. So he's got the insight that, uh, you know, don't want to be singing about Jacksonville when they did that song living on the edge. So, uh, you know, just keep that in mind.
00:05:03
Speaker
And Kamen is a known Aerosmith fan. yeah sure Modeled his whole look after Steven Tyler. Right. The Then the wardrobe. And then the codpiece. Lots of scarves, Kamen.
Celebrity Jokes and Children's Misunderstandings
00:05:22
Speaker
You guys ever see ah Ash versus Evil Dead?
00:05:25
Speaker
No. Cause every time I'm going to watch a movie, Kim's like, no, I want to watch that stupid fucking Bruce Willis mining on the moon movie. You know, it's not a fucking moon. It's an asteroid. Yeah. But he just wants to hear the Steven Tyler shit.
00:05:43
Speaker
Well, uh, I guess that's all we have about keys and C's. Any, any calls for this section, Jeff? I think we have a question about one of the calls. Oh yeah. Yeah. Um, but maybe it should go later. Up to you. Uh, no, no, we can play it now. Okay. like What fighting mean?
00:06:09
Speaker
Hmm. What does something mean? Yeah. What does I'm looking at team names. Can we hear that's That is not what I'm hearing. Are you hearing the F word? i I'm hearing that and I think that's something that that ah particular child's parents should explain to explain to them.
00:06:37
Speaker
Do you think b Brian handed his son, uh, his phone and naturally he dialed the number that he has memorized? Or was Brian irritated about the, the Niners or no, no, uh, the Seahawks that week. And, uh, the, he's repeating what he heard in anger and he's outsourcing the, uh, birds and the bees talk to all of us.
00:07:07
Speaker
So, oh, you're, you're suggesting we answer this cause this is the Qs and Cs section of the show. Okay. So, so just, just so you guys know, um, Google voice does try to, uh, to give you a transcript of all these calls. So there I can read their transcript for us here. Thank you, Jeff. What does button mean? Oh, well that's easier to answer. Nick, would you like to handle this one? It's too wholesome for me.
00:07:38
Speaker
I was ready for the other stuff. Too wholesome because there's an average of four holes per button. o Jeff, what does button mean? um I mean, I guess it all depends on what button we're talking about, right? Benjamin? Benjamin? I think as it applies to this show, button would be for us to put a end to a relevant topic. wrap wrap up Thank you caller.
Vikings vs. Colts Analysis
00:08:15
Speaker
And for those of you who want to submit more questions for the Q and C section, the number is as always 6 1 2 2 9 3 6 6 3 5. Thanks Jeff. Yeah. I always remember that and I never forget it.
00:08:34
Speaker
Next up, we have The Older Minute, brought to you by Jeffrey Michael Mangan III. Vikings versus the Colts. I missed the entire first half, so pick it up in the third quarter. Third quarter felt like Darnold was playing, and Darnold and the play calling were not in sync. um The new left tackle, Cam Robinson, was a mauler. He was throwing people all over the place.
00:09:00
Speaker
Cam Akers looked playable, which was pretty sweet. There was the there's three runs in a row, but Cam Akers had you know like positive yardage, like five five or eight yards. And then they went back to Aaron Jones and Aaron Jones had like a massive cutback play where he bounced it twice and wrote a guy with a stiff arm out of bounds for like a 10 yard gain.
00:09:28
Speaker
um But he just looked, he looked crisp and and fresh in the third quarter, which hasn't seemed like, you know, he's been ah been there lately. And then Will Rikerd is injured, so that's a bummer. His leg hurts.
00:09:48
Speaker
And that's been the meal of the day. How long is Rikerd out? He's on IR, so at least four right in. Yeah, at least four weeks. That's bad.
00:10:03
Speaker
got a quick He's got a quick ah mission to Deep Space Nine. Of course. He'll be back shortly. Hopefully it's not Thomas Record, the doppelganger created in a nefarious transporter incident. And he joined the marquee and became a terrorist.
00:10:26
Speaker
And then they just forgot about him in a prison and never talked about him again. I thought he died. No, he, uh, was in a Federation hard labor camp and they just did not reference that storyline ever again. I bet you what happened is that camp got swallowed up by the board. Probably. I hope they, um, use him for breeding. Cause what a man, you know,
00:10:55
Speaker
What a man, what a man, what a man, what a mighty good man. Nick, the main resist man the main reason people who aren't in our league are listening right now is for this next segment, which we like to call My Questions.
Guilty Pleasures and Avoided Movies
00:11:14
Speaker
That's right. Welcome to Five Questions, Nick. where we have prepared six questions. You can throw one out right now. You can surprise us when we get to it. How would you like to handle it today? Just throw them at me, throw them at me. Rapid, rapid fighter style. Let's, let's see. What's your guilty pleasure band or performer? What's that? Sorry. Guilty pleasure band or performer. Uh, and, uh, let's see here.
00:11:47
Speaker
I mean, you guys all know the answer to this, because we all listen to them a whole crud load, but it's kind of a thing that, you know, they sucked, but Limp Bizkit. Oh, great. We all listen to Limp Bizkit, and now it's kind of a taboo to say you like them. That's a great call, Nick. Is it B-I-Z-K-I-T? Bizkit? Bizkit? You know he spells it in his song?
00:12:15
Speaker
Yes. it's do But they didn't change the spelling of limp. Maybe they're, you know, they tried, they were trying the Y, but it looks like a lymph node at that point. So I can't go with the Y.
00:12:35
Speaker
They also were raised in Florida, right? So maybe they did. Yeah, they were Florida. Are they Jacksonville? I think they are actually. I think so too. Holy cow, Nick. needs to go there What a connection. connection from Q's and C's to the five Wow. Nick, what's a surprising movie you've never seen? I have never seen Titanic.
00:13:04
Speaker
never am you got mine damn sorry sorry you're going last Jeffrey unless someone cancels on us the day of wow okay nick uh do you think you ever will no i just don't see the point okay i got another question for you float on the door float on the damn door do you like The other James Cameron films. Yeah, he's got some good films. that what what are What are the other James Cameron films? Avatar, Terminator. Yeah, Terminator is just solid. Even the bad ones are decent to watch when you've had a couple drinks. But he just directed the first two, right? Yeah, good point. The Abyss.
00:14:01
Speaker
I've seen some of that on TV. I should probably watch it straight through. Oh, the Abyss? Yeah. Yeah, that one's a little tough because there's a few different versions, but I think the latest one is the greatest one. I don't know if they call it the director's cut or what have you, but I was i was out on Titanic as well for a long time because of the you know, number of people number seeing it and fawning over li Leo when we were coming up. But then I realized, you know, I like this guy's other films. I should really see it. And it's quite a Marvel. Which, which, which one of his subsequent films turned you? Was it Torik the first flight? I don't, I don't believe he directed a movie called Torik.
00:14:55
Speaker
He did in 2016. What? Yeah. that's a how about How about the television show Dark Angel?
00:15:06
Speaker
said was he did He did one episode. Okay. He kicked off Dark Angel and then he was the producer of the show. Torik is a TV movie for which he was a collaborating director. That doesn't count.
00:15:22
Speaker
Okay, then how about Earthship TV? It was a television movie. It was. That was what turned... Yeah. You're really a real big fan of Martini Ranch, the music video. Who's the singer? The band Reach. Or maybe Martini Ranch is the singer. I'm not quite sure on this one.
00:15:49
Speaker
You got Terminator, Aliens, The Abyss, Terminator 2, True Lies. Oh, True Lies, that was a good one. you you Titanic is worth it, okay? It's just long, so split it up into two sittings. Why did he do all these television movies? like who knows Someone just threw him a pile of money and they're like, James, we've got this concept about the SS Bismarck.
00:16:20
Speaker
How about it? Cocaine is expensive. You've got to finance that through sub movies. How many, how many more avatars are coming out, Andy? Oh, I think like four, three or four. I mean, I have his IMD. I could just look at it, but it's better to down too late. What's the next question? Nick, do you have a favorite or ideal USA vacation spot?
00:16:53
Speaker
I've been so many places that now I just desire new things. So skip this one. Whoa. All right, Nick, what's the what's your favorite random social media wormhole?
Hobby Rabbit Holes
00:17:12
Speaker
um
00:17:15
Speaker
I'll just read about like random hobbies that I'm never going to get into. um Do you have one that you remember? like For example, um I just read up on the lore of Warhammer.
00:17:35
Speaker
And I'm not going to start doing the tabletop games, nor am I going to read the thousands of books in fan fiction that came out. Yeah, I might see the Henry Cavill movie that's going to come out, but I can't catch up on 50 years or 30 years of tabletop and in fiction. I can't do it. Well, there's computer games too, right? There's games too. So much.
00:18:04
Speaker
So I'll just go down a wormhole. It's something I know I'm never going to get into and be like, hey, this is a great world. There's lots of books here. It's pretty crazy. Why won't you get into one of the video games, Nick? There's so many different kinds. Seemed to all be on PC. I've never been a PC gamer. Are they? Yeah. I've been living on PC for two years, so I didn't realize. Yeah. OK. Or on task consoles I don't have anymore.
00:18:33
Speaker
but hurt water
00:18:38
Speaker
What is the largest animal you could knock out with one punch? Well, I don't really have much arm strength. I never have. So I gotta think of something that maybe I could just lay my weight on or maybe like kick or stomp on. That's my cat and yells at me.
00:18:59
Speaker
No kicks, Nick. The question is very clear. You cannot kick this animal. You're gonna punch? Lord.
00:19:11
Speaker
um guess be a deep I guess maybe a deer. Like a baby deer or like... ah young A young buck. Like a bigger buck with those antlers would probably gore me.
00:19:28
Speaker
Like a buck that's barely got something coming. Like a power ah four pointer type of thing? Yeah. How many points? How many points? What's the most points we can take? Maybe six at most. ah um I figure I can like get in around the chin and then maybe get one good shot before it started stabbing at me. Maybe it's gone it's it's one punch. So you just need to get in there, deliver, stand back, watch your work.
00:19:56
Speaker
I mean, they they're kind of dumb too. I could bait, I could bait it with some food and just to be standing there like, the and then I just punch in the face, you know? I'm doing this for a podcast.
00:20:11
Speaker
its yeah Thanks, Nick. Lastly, we should start, we should start pod punch the people. We should. Yeah. Maybe on the off season. Yeah. Nick, what's a, what's your litmus test television show?
00:20:29
Speaker
Oh man, I watch a lot of TV. It would have changed a lot over the years too. um I really dug the Battlestar Galactica remake. That was great. And he fell apart a bit, but i could I could handle it. In the 90s? I think it was the 2000s.
00:20:52
Speaker
Oh, was it? Yeah. Wow. I was at, I was at Northland and ah we didn't have television and we subscribed to it on Apple. So like, you know, it would come out on a Sunday or whatever and you'd get it like four days later. So we would watch it. You know, all of the roommates would watch it on Thursday nights or whatever. Yeah, that was some solid stuff. Well acted mostly.
00:21:24
Speaker
Wow, it was the 2000s, my bad. Thanks, Nick. That has been... five.
00:21:38
Speaker
Jeff, before we get into one thing, I think it's time... I think we have a caller.
Weekly PSA: Jury Duty vs. Military Service
00:21:50
Speaker
This is Matt Herm with your weekly PSA.
00:21:54
Speaker
This week, Kicker Aubrey of the Dallas Cowboys are is performing this performing the second most important sort of duty you can perform next to military service, which is jury duty. Jury duty as in doing the best you can to be better than the OJ verdict.
00:22:14
Speaker
Anyway, it sounds like the time that he'll be missed will be just weekdays. He will not be able to practice, but he can still perform his duties on Sunday, making him had a playable option in all formats. um Will this impact his kicking? The jury's still out.
00:22:36
Speaker
Callbacks. Zay. We've been harmed. Thank you, Matt. yeah That was delightful. I really appreciate him doing that every week for us, don't you guys? Yeah, it's the best. Did he? Did he just have a child? Did I see yes something on Facebook? Congratulations, Herm. And Herm had the time reveal. Oh, that's right. Thanks. Okay. Well, congratulations on pregnancy.
00:23:01
Speaker
That's why he had time to record. I don't mean, I don't mean just a gender. It was a gender review. My gosh. No, no. But if he had just had a kid, he wouldn't have had time to record that for us. Yeah. genders will chairs maybe He's really dedicated. maybe He said weekly. So it's, he's been doing it every week. Hey, uh, you guys, it's time for,
00:23:29
Speaker
the lightning fast rapid fire one thing. That's right. Jeff and I have each prepared one thing to say about a week, a matchup from the past week's games. Nick, please jump in whenever, wherever we're meant to be together.
00:23:47
Speaker
i have I have a quick point of order on this, Andy. Thank you, Jeff. When a team changes their name, do we go with their new name or do we go with the name that they competed under in the week that were we are reviewing? Well, it comes up right away, doesn't it? Yeah. That's why that's why I interrupted you. Well, I decided to go with the, um,
00:24:11
Speaker
you know, the maiden name, uh, method of, of saying new name, nay, old name, previous name. Okay. Is that how you pronounce it? Nay? I think so. That's what I heard it. Thanks. I will say knee again to you if you do not appease us. So we'll say, what do you think about that? Jeff? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Then you get them both.
00:24:41
Speaker
That'll help rivalries foster. Yes. So first up we have chromium pure ha house, nay, tungsten house versus my mama wipes his ass. Yep. Okay. Uh, both teams outperformed their initial projections with Nick by five and Cody by 15, which is clearly the difference between a C minus and an A minus.
00:25:09
Speaker
Now for those of you watching at home, uh, I've been, that's another process issue, Jeff. We have Nick on the show. I've been trying to call the other one Nicholas just to assist here. Sure. I'd like to clarify chromium pure house and a tungsten house is Nicholas.
00:25:30
Speaker
Nikolas. Both teams outperformed their initial projections with Nikolas by five points and Cody by 15, which is clearly the difference between a C minus and an A minus. Nikolas didn't have it on his bench, but Cody could have given himself more breathing room. And I think Mahomes is available for trade.
00:25:56
Speaker
if I read that correctly somewhere. Yes. Yes. Maybe hashtag trades. Yep. Hey Nick, it hurts when I pee. Also it's time to recap. It hurts when I pee versus yellow jackets.
00:26:14
Speaker
Injury Fest, London, Coleman, Lamb, and Olave all questionable. Not sure what Kamen's plans for cover are, but I'm also not sure what my plan is because I'm already using the IR and I didn't pick anyone up last night. Yeah, that was probably the worst night for Waverwire ever.
00:26:37
Speaker
But there was nothing you could have done last week, Jeff. Does that make it sting any less? Oh yeah, much less. Here's one thing that should sting. 13 defenses scored better than yours. Free agent defenses. Nice. But only LA could have gotten you close.
00:26:54
Speaker
Sure. Not bad. Not bad. Um, but we did forget to say in, uh, the chrome, the chromium pure, uh, house nay tungsten house versus my mama wipes his ass. Uh, that was a point for expect to lose to us. Oh wow. Yep. Thanks Jeff. And in, uh, it hurts when I pee versus yellow jackets. It was a point for the little Lebowski's urban achievers. Yep. yeah Would you fancy that? I wouldn't.
00:27:23
Speaker
No, no, you wouldn't. Uh, the next, the next matchup, Andy was walking wounded versus Steelhouse. Um, what a Monday matchup that I wasn't even watching. My bad. Baker and the KC defense for 21 and a half points. Best hunts 18.2 points. Also the matchup timeline does not equal the game score. Interesting. Yep.
00:27:53
Speaker
Huh. Okay. Glitchy. Glitchy woman. Yeah. Glitchy woman, probably. Tom lost by a 38 special. That's 0.38. He would have won if he had optimized his lineup. That's brutal. It is, right? Guess how many free agent wide receivers could have got him there in place of Wix. 38? That's a good guess, Jeff.
00:28:22
Speaker
um Well, I know that Wix put up a so I'm guessing there's quite a few on the Waverware. I'm not sure, Andy. I'll price is right, Nick, and I'll go with one. Oh, closest without going over. It was $69, dudes. Oh, that's my car. I still hope they make a sequel.
00:28:50
Speaker
They were going to call it seriously, dude. Where's my car? I'd be there. Hey, for extra points, uh, this was the second closest loss. If there are no further adjustments, um, and Tom's got to replace good old deck. As Jerry Jones says, they are going to IR him. Thank you, Jeff, for that. Um, and for the screenshot, we can drop in the discord. Uh, and then that was also a point expect to lose to us.
00:29:20
Speaker
Next up we have Frontier Fantasies vs Tenemba. ah eka with the proper call at quarterback helps him dodge the bed the The Yahoo website is really bad at handling trades I noticed. i wanted to figure out you know, how, how D hops contributions to Casey have been since he got there and they just can't handle a mid season trade. You look back at D hop schedule of games and it's all Kansas city's games, but it's D hops points. It's really confusing. I didn't have time. He hasn't been a chief all season. I know that much. Just one week. Was this the first week? Yeah. He's only been there for three days. Well,
00:30:07
Speaker
then that's a pretty big impact. Good pick up, bad benching. And that's a point for expect to lose to us. That's right. Next up we got Kuznog versus 5-0 first. At this point in time, I just want to give a quick update. ah Expect to lose to us has three points on the week.
00:30:29
Speaker
And the Lobowski's have one. Thanks, Jeff. Yep. Zoe's starting to get rolling. And what an amazing three-week tight end stretch with Njoku and Gisicki. Amazing call in the flex spot this week. So amazing call. Is that all? Yeah. Tight end, tight end. Wow. Double tight end. Flexing. Flexing on us all.
00:30:54
Speaker
Zach was trailing Tim in the standings and he still is, but he picked up two points against Tim who also lost to the median. So great work there. leboski
00:31:11
Speaker
Oh dear, we have Oh Highmark versus Barkley sack up in Ram. Do we have to talk about this one, Jeff? Uh, yeah. Since we're all on this call together, Keggar, what would it take for you to trade Tua? Andy's probably willing to offer Murray and anyone else off his bench, not named Waddle, because with this trade, he'd clearly be leaning into the super stack.
00:31:34
Speaker
All right. Maybe they'll take a little look-see at some stuff there. mean I mean, I don't know. I could just ride O'Nix the rest of the year. he He runs a lot, which is good for a quarterback. so So I'll consider that. For those of you listening at home, we have about two and a half weeks before the trade deadline closes.
00:31:56
Speaker
But related to this game, it was another wasted Barkley performance due to the worst fantasy performance from Kyler Murray since January 3rd, 2021.
00:32:12
Speaker
I found a really great resource because I thought, this seems this seems really, really, really bad. And it was. It's his worst performance in a game that he finished in three years, almost three years.
00:32:29
Speaker
And through nine weeks of the season, Bo Nix is QB8 in our league. Through nine weeks of the season, Kyler Murray is QB9. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I should have won this week again, just like last week and not my year, but we're not here to talk about me. but That was, was that a divisional? No, it was not. It was inter-division. Okay.
00:32:58
Speaker
Lastly, we have what's my AJ again versus DX Fugs Inc. Kurt got screwed by Komet and Deontay Johnson not getting targets. Johnson makes more sense because of the midweek trade. Komet was the go-to for the Bears through week six, so I'm not sure what the hell the Bears are doing anymore.
00:33:19
Speaker
Caleb's looked cruddy for the past couple of games. He had a hot streak in the middle and now he's regressed. like almost Like he looks like a high school quarterback.
Division Standings and Fantasy Football Discussion
00:33:32
Speaker
You know, someone might say Greg Baldus. It's almost like Chicago can't coach quarterbacks. It's almost. It takes the sting off a bit when you lose to the highest scoring team in the league. For this week at least, doesn't it Kurt?
00:33:50
Speaker
But seriously, Brian, what's it like to outperform your projection by 40 points? Hey-o. I've never seen it. Especially not this year. ah Going into the week, it was 7-7, division showdown. This week, expect to lose picked up, expect to lose to us picked up three points, and the Lebowski's picked up two, so we are now 10-9. 10-9, thanks Jeff.
00:34:18
Speaker
um I didn't update awards tracking, did you? ah Yeah, um ah so we have a a new second hi ah second closest, ah whatever the heck you call it. We did have two people that could have optimized their lineups in one. That would be Tom and Matt Maxa. ah Matt Maxa now has two.
00:34:41
Speaker
Uh, or three, I'm sorry, three games in which if he had optimized, he could have one, uh, that moves him into one game behind the leader with four. Uh, that would be you, Andy. Um, otherwise we didn't have any real movement in awards this week. Okay. Top score of the week was a 33.5 off of Cody's team.
00:35:09
Speaker
Thanks, Jeff. That's when the awards update. Now let's get to the playoff picture. And Lebowski's overachievers. If the season ended today, Tom in first place would be in. Nikolas in second place. That means he moved up two spots, right, Jeffrey?
00:35:30
Speaker
ah So that's the Chromium Pure house, nay? Okay, just making sure, making sure. And then in third place in your division, it's Nick, correct? Oh, hi, Mark. Hey, Nick, now that you're here, why don't you go with, oh, hi, Mark? Oh, hi, Mark. There is a wonderfully bad movie called The Room.
00:35:59
Speaker
that everyone should see. It's better if you see it in a theater. um Think like people go there to make fun of the movie, like Rocky Horror Picture Show. um The person who made it, financed it, and ah plays a starring role in its name is Tommy Wiseau or Weezo.
00:36:22
Speaker
And he really, really thought this was going to be an Oscar worthy movie, and it really wasn't. a His horrible dialogue, subplots that go nowhere, bad acting, nudity, I guess. Not even good nudity.
00:36:44
Speaker
oh weird weird things going on the whole time and memorable things like oh hi mark lisa you're tearing me apart and many many other things everyone should see it just to know they've seen it but nick what does this have to do with fantasy football Nothing. Oh, actually, yeah, it does have something to do with football. There is a strange scene at one point where ah where Tommy is getting married, and for some reason they just, while wearing tuxes, decide to go out into an alleyway and throw a football around, and one of them, fought after like throwing the ball twice, one of them falls, which I'm pretty sure happened,
00:37:33
Speaker
It was not scripted and they just stopped playing football and leave Thanks Nick I was wondering about the football connection I've met Tommy Wiseau the man himself I shook his hand He didn't take off his sunglasses for one second. I I know you're not in California anymore I know he lives in the San Francisco area, but I would love for him to autograph a card I have So, you know, if you see him again, I will send you this card. That sounds great, Nick. That's a deal. Lastly, fourth place in the little Lebowski division is Kuzna and Kazak. You're in ninth place overall, but fourth play fourth place in our hearts or something. And a mere 48 points behind him came in. Tied record, but just behind on points four. Thanks, Jeff.
00:38:30
Speaker
Who's leading in expect to lose to us? Oh, that would be Eacom. The and NBA is in first place. In second place for us, it's what's my AJK in. Third place, it's the walking wounded. That's only on point differential. Jarrett, you can make it up easy while still winning your matchup and your median score. ah In fourth place, it would be the 5-0 firsts. That means that DXFug's 8 has fallen out of the playoffs.
00:39:00
Speaker
Oh, really? Yep. Oh. Well. There's still time, guys, don't worry. Yep. There's still time. Plenty of it. Not for me, not for Cody, but there's still time for many of you to be in the conversation. You guys, this has been a great show. We're approaching 40 minutes. Any final thoughts today? Jeff? No, I have no and thoughts today. today Nick?
00:39:31
Speaker
Like an orange cat. I have no thoughts. Well. Thank you guys for joining us. Thanks for your time. Jeffrey, thanks for all the pre-show and post-show work that you put in always. Nick, it was a pleasure as always. I will post your answers in some way, shape, or form. Maybe we'll even post a trailer to the room on the podcast channel. Oh, guys, I do have one more voicemail. What? Yeah.
00:40:00
Speaker
whoa Whoa. Call her. You're on the air. Oh, I just did the Viking game right now to see the Vikings to beat the Colts. So, uh, yeah, here's to a good game. If it's all like the last time the Colts were in town, it's going to be intense. But anyways, y'all suck. See you tomorrow. Wow. Let me see when we got Mike on the show. Dick a, dick a, dick a, dick a, dick a.
00:40:29
Speaker
I got him slated for the final week of the show, but we should have him on sooner. We'll see if we can flip that around. Yeah. So I think he said intense, but he also sounded like he might've said intense.
00:40:48
Speaker
So did Mike think they were going to play the game in a big tent? Maybe he really went to Barnum and Bailey's and thought it was a football game.
00:41:02
Speaker
Well, for answers to that question and more, tune in next week to the exciting episode of You Like That.
