Live from State Street in
0:02
the heart of Chicago. You
0:04
are listening to the new
0:07
home of the Chicago Bears.
0:09
ESPN Chicago. And this is
0:11
Waddell and Sylvia. WMBP, WSHE,
0:13
HD2 Chicago. A good karma brands
0:15
radio station. All right,
0:21
you made it to a weekend. Happy Friday
0:23
to everyone. And it's a beautiful
0:25
day in the city of Chicago. After
0:28
some storms rolled through yesterday, afternoon
0:30
and evening, got ourselves
0:33
a good weekend. Supposed to be warm
0:35
this weekend. I think so. Yeah,
0:37
I think so. I looked yesterday.
0:40
I think it looked like we have 70s. What
0:44
we have had a very, very mild
0:47
stretch here, haven't we? We look for
0:49
April and now early May. Yes, like
0:51
this is usually when I'm
0:53
my highest whining self. I
0:56
usually whine about the weather 78 tomorrow, at
0:58
least in the northern berm. Yeah, partly sunny.
1:00
I'll buy that. Like I'll take 60s and
1:02
70s all day. Anything
1:05
under 63 degrees over the next
1:07
10 days. Give it to me as a high. Yeah,
1:09
I love it. I love it. So
1:11
a beautiful day. Cubs lost today, three to
1:13
one. They were up one to nothing in
1:15
the eighth inning. So
1:17
there's that. We'll get to Jesse here in a
1:19
second. The
1:22
Sox play a little bit
1:24
later than normal for a pregame show.
1:27
They're a 640 pregame. So
1:29
we'll take you all the way through
1:31
that pregame. So we're on a little later than normal. We'll
1:33
be with you all the way till 640. A
1:36
little bonus. Yeah, a little bonus. Waddell and
1:38
Sylvie. So we're on till 640. They're
1:41
taking on the Cardinals tonight. The
1:45
NBA news. There's a lot
1:48
of that. The Lakers fired
1:50
Darvin Ham today. He's their
1:52
scapegoat. And LeBron
1:54
will get to hire his
1:56
coach of choice. A lot of people believe it
1:58
could be JJ Raddick. who he
2:01
does a podcast with and has been interviewed by
2:03
a couple of different teams. So
2:05
we will see where that goes. Ty Lue
2:08
may be a possibility, but remember, he's coaching
2:10
the Clippers and they may not let him
2:12
go. By the
2:14
way, do you see Jalen, not only did you
2:16
see Jalen Brunson's performance, but did you see him
2:18
in the post-game interview with the
2:21
guys on the TNT set? As
2:24
great as he is as a player, he's
2:26
also a really compelling guy in an interview.
2:28
He was talking about all the banners for
2:30
Villanova and Kenny, then he was pointing out
2:32
to Kenny. He's
2:34
a complete package right now. Steven said, I
2:37
tell my kids, hey, he went to the
2:39
school down the road. He's
2:41
just a great role
2:43
model for a
2:46
second round pick and what hard work
2:48
can do and all the people who
2:50
have doubted him. Even
2:53
the Dallas Mavericks, again, the
2:55
Dallas Mavericks wanted to pay him,
2:57
but they didn't want to pay him that much. That's
3:00
how he ended up with the Knicks. A lot of
3:02
people thought the Knicks overpaid him and
3:05
now he's worth every cent.
3:07
It's unbelievable. There
3:10
are certain guys that find success.
3:17
Not only is it somewhat unbelievable,
3:21
but it's awesome. He's
3:24
such a good guy. Not just because he's
3:26
a local guy, but he's such a good
3:28
guy and the style that he plays will
3:30
take you back in time. It's
3:33
just a cool story. He's a great guy to
3:35
root for. As we
3:37
transition to Jesse, who's done double or
3:39
triple duty today, he worried great teammates
3:43
and he worked this morning with Cap.
3:47
That is like quadruple duty. That's like doing three things at
3:49
once at any end to cover the Cubs game. Jesse
3:52
is brought to you by your Chicago
3:54
Land Toyota Dealer Association Toyota Let's Go
3:57
Places. They Were talking about this this
3:59
morning. The whole question: Cubs
4:01
Fans: what should the Cubs do with
4:03
Then Brown? Considering their bullpen issues, this
4:05
is a guy who could be electric
4:07
as a closer or a high leverage
4:10
bolton arm, but he is also. Been.
4:12
As a starter. And.
4:15
That's. All he's done really for the
4:17
Cubs through the minor league system. any
4:19
had success as a starter. But
4:23
the need a bullpen arm Or two?
4:25
Or three? How do you
4:27
believe that people are voting sizing people Cubs
4:29
fans despite them being five over five hundred
4:32
right now? Have a little i early may
4:34
panic and them and they want him in
4:36
the bullpen. Twenty. Seven point nine
4:38
percent say keep, I'm starting and you
4:40
are absolutely correct. I'm shocked by this.
4:43
Seventy two point one percent of the
4:45
people say send them to the ballpark
4:47
mean a minority here. I'll it listen
4:49
if see if you project in being
4:51
a starter. And start him. Now.
4:54
It's if he only has two pitches. A
4:56
to pitch pitcher is more likely to find
4:59
success in the bullpen. The I guess. Can
5:01
he develop another pits if you don't
5:03
think he's hands and okay, maybe put
5:05
him in the bullpen, but have you
5:07
projects him to be a long term
5:10
starter? Don't. Don't panic
5:12
in May! Have
5:14
put him in the rotation and letting letting
5:16
grow or I just see, don't have to
5:18
answer that question right now. Why don't you
5:21
give us the way of the land on
5:23
what's the carbs Club House was white in
5:25
the wake of advert Ouseley blowing or wonder
5:27
nothing read and allowing three runs in the
5:30
a thin and. Yeah, good
5:32
to be with us. Always guys. I mean,
5:34
it was a part of your regular. You
5:36
mean outside of Gallagher Wages? Crazy, I mean.
5:38
and thirty four, thirty five thousand here and
5:40
it looks like it's gonna be a great
5:42
when so many good things. Sap was nasty
5:44
nasty. He has a point. Fifty.
5:46
Four he or a hidden with netscape
5:48
didn't even make the team at a
5:51
spring training. Morel was gotten hot against
5:53
another huge home or dead center field
5:55
with the wind blowing in just a.
5:57
or i'm i'm feel he has massive power
5:59
has shown it both in New York and now here again
6:01
as he starts to heat up. But as lay
6:04
was the conversation afterwards, the team trying to
6:06
rally around them. Get this guys
6:08
now. It's the sixth loss when leading
6:10
in the eighth inning or later already
6:13
for the Cubs. That's the most in
6:15
baseball, the most in baseball six losses
6:17
when leading in the eighth inning or
6:19
later. Obviously, the questions
6:21
to correct counsel were very, you know, specific
6:24
in terms of why did you go this
6:26
go to this guy in such a high
6:28
leverage situation. The Cubs are up one nothing
6:30
with one out in the eighth. He went
6:33
to ausley who gave up four singles, two
6:35
stolen bases. By the end of the inning,
6:37
the Cubs are trailing three one here is
6:39
Craig Council's answer to that. This
6:42
situation we're in with just who we
6:44
have available today. Um, you
6:49
can't just stay away from people.
6:51
Just, you know, we just can't in a
6:53
stretch like this. Um, and
6:57
so we went with the guy that, you know, was kind
6:59
of best suited for that spot in the lineup on that
7:01
part of the game. I just didn't work.
7:05
Walked off the mountain to booze. I haven't
7:07
heard that towards a burials license. He became
7:09
a cub. So that's a mental thing he
7:11
has to deal with. He was
7:13
good after the game. He was accountable, but doesn't
7:16
really have any answers. And a
7:18
lot. Oh, you're probably gonna ask me what's wrong.
7:20
Yeah, I could just tell you what other people
7:22
are telling me that are more expertise about it.
7:24
The stuff is a little flat. The sliders flat.
7:27
The sinker, which is supposed to produce ground balls,
7:29
was getting hit in the air. His
7:31
whiff rate is down. So it's just not
7:33
as crisp, and it's kind of been that
7:36
way all along. Granny didn't give
7:38
up home runs today, but you know, two stolen
7:40
bases. So he's losing his focus on the mound.
7:42
Just just not a good inning.
7:44
And I'll defend council in one respect.
7:46
You can't hide a picture in this
7:49
day and age, right? Relievers are used
7:51
daily. You can't hide one for very
7:53
long. Now, lighter was the only other
7:55
guy may be available. 11 in
7:57
game last night. They're in the middle of yesterday.
7:59
They're in the middle of 16 games in 16 days,
8:03
but still maybe he should have gone to lighter
8:05
and they should have found a softer spot But
8:07
this is eventually gonna be on jet for sure.
8:09
Can they fix him? I won't you know, you
8:11
said I won't ask you what's bothering him or
8:13
what the problem is is but can it be
8:15
fixed? Yes, I Think
8:17
so. I think so. It is probably
8:19
mechanical just to get it a little
8:21
bit crisper You
8:24
know making you know fooling the hitters a little
8:26
bit more They're laying off some pictures they normally
8:29
would chase and that's why I say is whip
8:31
rates down on a slider I
8:33
think it's fixable It's just so hard to
8:35
fix at the major league level and and
8:37
actually that's what council said We have to
8:39
do it while playing games and they were
8:41
doing it in lower leverage situations until this
8:43
moment Because they needed them
8:45
because of again the situation
8:47
they're in as he stated It's
8:50
just tough to do they can't send them to the minors
8:52
without an injury, you know, you go
8:54
on the injury list You can go down and make a rehab
8:56
appearance or two like Kyle Hendricks did He'd
8:59
have to go through waivers and he would certainly
9:01
be be grabbed by another team. It's it's not
9:04
a perfect situation I do think
9:06
it can be fixed. I don't know if he should be
9:08
the closer anytime soon though So what
9:10
like again, what do you think will happen then?
9:12
Do you think they're going to come up with
9:15
one of these back injuries that Kyle Hendricks had?
9:19
I'm surprised they haven't already to be honest. I was
9:21
surprised they didn't after his last poor
9:23
outing now again These were four singles. Maybe
9:25
they feel like there's a little progress But
9:28
you're gonna have to go back to hiding him
9:30
a little bit in lower leverage situations Which maybe
9:32
that comes after after your day off which doesn't
9:35
come until Thursday if two more against Milwaukee three
9:37
more against the Padres And then a
9:39
day off. I wouldn't be surprised by that. Well,
9:41
so we I just can't say for sure I
9:43
wouldn't be surprised by it by that injury. I
9:45
just thought actually they would do it last
9:47
time around So let's see as soon as tomorrow If
9:50
he's if he comes up with something, what do you
9:52
expect him to do with Brown and what would you
9:54
do with Brown? Yes, so
9:56
I actually asked counsel that pregame without knowing you were
9:59
going to do that poll question or anything like
10:01
that. And he punted the question
10:03
a little bit, basically saying, when
10:05
everyone's healthy, we have a big decision to
10:08
make. That's exactly what he said. And
10:10
Justin Steele is about to be healthy
10:12
because he'll be activated to pitch on
10:14
Monday. And Kyle
10:17
Hendricks is due back around the corner
10:19
as well. I would absolutely
10:21
put him in the bullpen. Absolutely, I might even
10:23
try him really late in games. You mentioned that
10:26
the fastball curve, ball two pitch pitcher is made
10:28
for the bullpen. He might develop a third or
10:30
fourth pitch eventually, and you can put him back
10:32
in the rotation. This is not his long-term, you
10:36
have to lock him in right now to whatever
10:38
role you're gonna give him. But with
10:40
the way Wes Neske's pitching, I'd
10:43
probably leave him in the rotation. He's
10:45
definitely more suited to the rotation with the
10:47
multiple pitches he has than
10:49
Brown. I would absolutely put him in the bullpen and
10:51
I might even try him really late in games. So
10:54
you would go, you would stay with
10:56
Wes Neske in the rotation longer
10:58
than Brown. I
11:00
would in this moment because of the need for the
11:02
team. Wes Neske's not a one
11:04
inning kind of guy anyway. The need for
11:06
the team is somebody late in games, whether
11:08
it be Brown in the seventh and eighth
11:10
and Leiter and Nerris can split the ninth
11:12
or whatever the case may be. Their
11:15
need is late in games. And a guy like
11:17
Brown has already proven the mentality
11:19
to go back and forth. He's done all
11:21
that, he's passed those tests. I
11:24
think if they get healthy with
11:26
Steele and Hendricks, especially just Steele even, they should
11:28
move Brown to the bullpen. What
11:30
does baseball history usually tell you about guys,
11:32
young guys like this? Is
11:36
it easier to make them
11:38
starters after they find
11:40
their way in the bullpen or vice versa,
11:42
Jeff? Oh, I think it's
11:44
the first, absolutely. Many, many times that happened
11:47
where you start in the bullpen and move.
11:49
Mark Burley famously started in the bullpen and
11:51
moved to the rotation. I
11:54
mean, Copac's doing the reverse, but that's because he
11:56
failed out. I mean, many guys do the reverse
11:59
only because they failed. as
12:01
starters. There is nothing wrong with
12:03
meeting the team's needs in the
12:05
pen and then as this
12:07
thing moves along, let's say Hendrix isn't brought
12:09
back next year whatever, changes are
12:11
made and Brown moves into the rotation and
12:13
by the way I'm not sure that Brown
12:16
is a long-term starter either. I mean it's
12:18
still working out. Most starters have to have
12:20
more than two pitches. Who knows maybe he
12:22
is the long-term closer here. I think it's
12:24
yet to be written. The good news is
12:26
his mentality and his
12:28
arm has already shown he can
12:30
go back and forth a little bit. Now you don't
12:32
want to go back and forth too much because then
12:34
you could hurt a guy's arm but right now he's
12:36
young enough he's just up I think he's fine doing
12:38
a little bit of both but I would
12:41
have I would put him the bullpen as
12:43
things get healthy but there's nothing wrong with
12:45
starting there and then moving to rotation. No.
12:47
You know something that we also hit on
12:49
was the offense. It's not just the bullpen.
12:51
Like these two games
12:53
the one nothing leads. The
12:56
other day with Nerris where
12:58
they got the lucky if
13:01
you want to call it lucky call
13:03
or decision and they held
13:05
on for one nothing win or today
13:08
when they couldn't hold on for one
13:10
nothing win. You just can't
13:12
continue to win one-nothing games.
13:15
One run isn't enough. Some
13:17
of these guys who are slugging 380 they've
13:21
got to start hitting and
13:23
Dan's V Swanson and Ian Hap and
13:25
others have got to be producing what
13:28
the back of the baseball card says
13:30
they do. Absolutely. I
13:32
think you hit the nail on the head.
13:34
Guys like Hap and Swanson in particular. Those
13:36
the veterans. I mean relying on Mike Tachman
13:39
has been great like he's great but look
13:41
that he doesn't have the slug that these
13:43
other guys potentially have and I
13:45
mean Hap has what one home run Swanson has
13:48
three 0 4 today for Swanson
13:51
down to 224 batting average 630 opiate.
13:53
None of it's good. None of it's good and
13:55
that's why just getting a little pop out of
13:57
morale lately has been huge and I just think
14:00
and I said this earlier on the air like you take
14:02
the good and the bad with morale but no one's complaining
14:04
about Swarver with his 202 average Randy's
14:06
hitting 40 home runs but morale is a
14:08
similar type of player you live with the
14:11
bad because the good is really good but
14:13
guys like happen in Swanson have to bring
14:15
up their batting averages have a little bit
14:17
more slug and contribute because
14:20
without a Suzuki and without
14:22
Ballinger we know it was gonna tough we knew it
14:24
was gonna be tough look Bush has gotten a little
14:26
bit hot again but these are young players
14:28
you're counting on Matt
14:30
Mervis not so good now Maya's
14:32
down Maya's down to 210 Armstrong's
14:34
done okay but I don't think it's
14:36
fair to put too much pressure on those guys it's
14:38
the veterans making some money that need to step up
14:41
you know this is probably Mervis's last shot when
14:43
Ballinger comes back I'm not sure we're gonna
14:45
see him again he just you know he
14:47
helped win a game in New York I
14:49
love it but there's just not enough there
14:51
right now that was my
14:54
next question to you Jesse was you know I
14:56
was a Mervis guy because of the numbers that
14:58
he put up in AAA and I wanted to
15:00
see him because of Hosmer and
15:02
and Mancini when when they weren't
15:05
producing so that's why I like
15:08
just out of default became a
15:11
Mervis guy because I just wanted to
15:13
see a young guy play much like
15:16
I wanted to see morale play but
15:18
he has shown me that he's
15:20
just not capable that he and I've
15:22
texted you about this I believe he's
15:25
a 4a player now after watching him
15:27
and and with all the other guys
15:29
struggling I don't think you can
15:31
continue to trot him out there I know there
15:33
are a lot of injuries isn't there someone else
15:35
they could put at the D8 spot and that's
15:37
what I mean I think it's just a given
15:40
him one last chance one last chance because as
15:42
guys get healthy he won't be playing and probably
15:44
won't be on this roster I agree
15:46
with you on this team he's a 4a
15:48
player I think he's also getting caught up
15:50
in the fact that he came up last
15:52
year and now this year in a winning
15:54
environment they are trying to win games he
15:57
could get traded in July end up on the Marlins or
15:59
some other other team and have no pressure. And maybe
16:01
he finds a major league career out of what's gone
16:03
on so far. He's not going to be able to
16:06
develop here. It doesn't feel like it does. It doesn't
16:08
mean it can't happen. We see players go up and
16:10
down, but I just don't feel like it's going to
16:12
happen here. The bats aren't going to be there as
16:14
soon as they get healthy. He is
16:16
going to probably not be on this roster
16:18
in short order, maybe even not on this
16:21
in this organization. So I think they're just
16:23
giving him one last chance with with righties
16:25
on the mound. I mean, you could start
16:27
magical. You could you could start wisdom against
16:29
righties. But I think again, it's just one
16:31
last chance to see if he can show
16:33
a little pop when he's got the advantage
16:36
on the platoon advantage.
16:38
But that might change. You're right. That
16:40
might change considering he's hitting 115 right
16:42
now. Is a normally patient Jed
16:45
getting impatient? I
16:49
think so. I think so. I think he
16:51
knows that he screwed up last year with the bullpen
16:53
and you know, it's Deja Vu
16:55
all over again. It's
16:57
a little maybe a little bit on council here
17:00
and there. I've been a little critical, but you
17:02
got to have the horses. He had Hader. He
17:04
had Devin Williams in Milwaukee. The bullpen were great.
17:06
You got to have the horses and Jed has
17:08
not provided that. Nerris was a good pickup on
17:11
paper, but he has struggled. So
17:13
you never know. You could be paying 9 million to
17:15
a guy and he'll struggle. But look, there are in
17:17
season moves to be made. I mentioned this on the
17:19
air this morning. Arizona traded for a lever yesterday with
17:21
twins. I mean it can happen and
17:23
you can find a diamond in the rough somewhere. So yeah,
17:25
I do think he's getting a little impatient
17:28
with what's going on here and I think he
17:30
only has to look in the mirror. I don't
17:32
think this is a manager situation. I didn't think
17:34
it was with Ross. I mean how many times
17:36
can you go to lighter? Merryweather's down. Yeah, there's
17:38
some bad luck with injuries. You got to fortify
17:40
when you think you have enough. You don't have
17:42
enough and Jed should know that as much as
17:44
anyone. Any other anything
17:46
you want to add with the Cubs that
17:49
we may have messed? Well,
17:51
I got to be eat
17:53
my words. I'm Milwaukee for this moment.
17:55
I did. There's a good team. This
17:57
there. They are just well coached like.
18:00
Their defense is good. They play the game the
18:02
right way They have not missed a beat with
18:04
Pat Murphy taking over and he was suspended today
18:07
So I was a guy just like this morning thing I don't
18:09
believe in Milwaukee now to see him for the first time all
18:11
year up close They play the game the
18:13
right way. Maybe Milwaukee has some staying power I do
18:15
think it's gonna be the Reds and Cubs in the
18:17
end, but I could be wrong about that Maybe it's
18:19
a three-team race in the end. I still
18:22
give the Cubs the advantage. They played well
18:24
with all these injuries. So A
18:27
little tweak in the bullpen could be the difference maker
18:29
and you never know what's gonna happen whenever one gets
18:31
healthy So I think the glasses They've
18:34
had a tough schedule and they're still doing pretty well Besides
18:38
the bullpen blow-ups anything on
18:40
the sock Do you
18:42
have any white socks thoughts for us? When
18:45
I just said that about Milwaukee, I had
18:47
the white socks in my mind Like I
18:50
don't think Milwaukee is the most talented team in the
18:52
league They're not but they play the game the right
18:54
way their payroll is not high The
18:56
white socks just do not play the game the right
18:59
way forget the talent They had talent last year didn't
19:01
play it. Well play the game the right way They
19:03
have no talent and they're not playing the game the
19:05
right. I mean either way it doesn't matter So
19:08
I don't have any thoughts except for that
19:10
that that the leadership in that dugout is
19:12
just not there And you know, they didn't
19:14
have leadership in the clubhouse last year, but
19:16
what they change Everything
19:18
but the manager and so that's
19:21
my thought like they're not
19:23
even controlling the controllables Which is play the
19:25
game with some focus and with some intense.
19:27
I just added Jesse to the hater list.
19:30
Okay, so I got Hater
19:34
I'm waiting for him to say that in the night
19:36
when they went this is for you Silvia wild stand
19:38
up south side You
19:42
know, I hopefully I can you know what
19:44
muster up a huge belcher a fart when
19:46
that happened That would be
19:48
appropriate response to call you to
19:50
call us out for that Are
19:53
They like is so when you you're talking
19:55
about the leadership of the manager Are They
19:57
just gonna ride it out with him because?
20:00
They know there's no manager
20:02
really who can. L
20:04
per mile end. They'll let him
20:07
just take all the the losses
20:09
and then reset next year. I'm.
20:11
I'm about eighty five to ninety percent
20:13
their that Dodgers do that. And also
20:16
they don't want to pay a second
20:18
guy in all that stuff. but I
20:20
do think there is a moment in
20:22
time possibly were Jerry or Chris. Are
20:25
just so embarrassed by what they're seeing is the
20:27
fact that it had vague out you haven't gotten
20:29
to that point yet is amazing but yeah I
20:32
mean like even maybe it's later in the season
20:34
and it is so bad it's haven't gotten any
20:36
better and I'm a turbo the wind. Some stuff
20:38
about how they play the game. And
20:41
they they they have been two months
20:43
and one your profile instead of. Five.
20:45
Months and he I don't know. I I
20:48
think there's a small chance that he wakes
20:50
up one morning or late at night after
20:52
watching another bad Jb says i can't watch
20:54
this anymore. Get me that Been promote the
20:57
Bench going to save us To and I
20:59
know this is this is beating a dead
21:01
horse. But the concept of Paulina Haider. With.
21:04
You were he. Won't. Fire
21:07
A Manager. That. Is.
21:11
On his way out. Because.
21:13
You want to make sure that you
21:15
don't have to pay a second manager
21:17
And twenty twenty four. And Major League
21:19
Baseball is an unfathomable concept for me.
21:22
And by the way, we don't know
21:24
what profiles making, but in baseball parlance,
21:26
you're you're eating like nothing. Nothing less
21:29
than a million. I'm guessing he added
21:31
a millionaire Most me Ross was making
21:33
one point five. For. The cops
21:35
were what what do you think gruffalo
21:37
and a half hour I was I did
21:40
you know just because it like as the
21:42
manager salaries are readily available but I was
21:44
looking at an article. Forget.
21:47
Who made the Nightingale from a years or
21:49
so? There's like six guys in major league
21:51
baseball. Are there? were there are making a
21:53
million or last. Managers. Raised
21:55
there's no doubt they'd Pedro Gruffalo is one
21:58
of. His own there's no doubt. There's
22:00
no doubt summer euthanasia mean you're
22:02
You're You're fascinated with tix. Yes,
22:04
that's not eating any Sane and
22:06
nice words of a man. It's
22:08
a nice worth of milkshakes running.
22:11
And it's all that is Jessie. I
22:13
mean and like that haters stuff too.
22:15
Like does it start with a day
22:18
Presents He one of their World Series
22:20
heroes who went out and publicly said
22:22
that he's had a divorce with a
22:24
White Sox this year. Was. The
22:26
only one who who are the haters
22:28
August all of us. It's all of
22:30
us that have been quite a take
22:32
them for obvious regional then I mean
22:34
yeah zero. He's more of a soft
22:37
than than the new play by play
22:39
guy. Who's. More south side. The
22:41
guys don't twenty five games. From.
22:44
For point I played the White Sox
22:46
are Aj Pierzynski. I'm
22:48
not good at a you know what? I'm not
22:50
even going to play your game on that front
22:52
is the number or the answer is obvious. Of
22:54
course, I'm not even going to indulge you. Was
22:57
even a nice thing that it's not even common
22:59
sense like. It. So off the
23:01
wall. So naughty. Yeah,
23:03
I just wouldn't have loved to see them
23:05
actually just play the game the right way.
23:07
Am I wrong here Guy? No, No Yes
23:09
yes it's I just liked. I know you're
23:11
not talented this year he just play the
23:13
game the right way. Money goes back to
23:15
it. goes back to also when the had
23:17
their guys healthy. Crazy about asking
23:20
him to run the first. yeah
23:22
they get her not hitting cut
23:24
off. Guys like to not drink
23:26
anything that you learn in little
23:28
league baseball. Paul the yarn lang
23:31
the ball go through his legs
23:33
that hitting that hot off man
23:35
consistently from every outfields position. This
23:37
year All the things that you're
23:40
mentioning Jesse Legit. Yeah, it be
23:42
because you're simply in a rebuilding
23:44
year now Manned sign. but like
23:46
you said, you don't play the
23:48
game. Of baseball the right way. And
23:51
this is two years under this manager that
23:53
date that that they have a different sound,
23:56
different culture, different everything. Yet. They
23:58
can't figure out how to feel the ground. Our
24:00
it really like you said in a way
24:02
that with were beating a dead horse your
24:04

25:28
the it assesses realize. That
25:36
way at this is off the beaten path
25:38
to but something on the Cubs of them
25:40
will get said Tyler Christian because got a
25:42
great dumb as a great stat It's a
25:44
bad sad about the cubs but us He
25:46
puts it in perspective that is this isn't
25:48
just about pitching. Ten straight games
25:51
where the Cubs have either have one
25:53
or no home runs. Think. About
25:55
that. Ten. Straight games with
25:57
either one home run or know home
25:59
run. They have three home runs
26:01
over the last five games and they're
26:03
all by Christopher. I'm gonna say I
26:06
mean like look, this is a direct
26:08
result of not having Ballenger and say
26:10
I in the. Lineup. But
26:12
that's when. Some. Of these
26:14
guys need to pick up the
26:16
slack now because like many hats
26:18
making a good chunk of change,
26:20
Daisy Swanson make it a good
26:23
song. Could say those are those
26:25
guys are twenty home run guys
26:27
as they they should be hitting
26:29
home runs to at is correct
26:31
or Tyler let's get on t
26:33
say less it's time for Hockey's
26:36
a list. From the mind of
26:38
the man who understands the for
26:40
peas of Wattles World Parties a
26:42
list. It's. Tough questions is
26:44
hop exploding around and time of box
26:47
mods or these really the questions that
26:49
I was called here to and smokies
26:51
a list on E S P N
26:54
Chicago. Can I interject real some real
26:56
quick and lead to some? I just
26:58
I will get it is a Tv
27:00
right now. Darvon Ham was fired after
27:03
two seasons as the Lakers coach. They
27:05
went to the I Love How The
27:07
Western Conference finals last year right? Yep.
27:10
How many deals of our guys made?
27:13
No last thirty months? Zero. Aren't.
27:16
Back. To town. Good
27:18
point. I didn't like Emily and
27:20
they still haven't frigid a person.
27:22
Yeah right. And thirty month? Thirty
27:25
months? yeah, was more than that. Now I
27:27
was like thirty one or two. Yeah know,
27:29
is that was a trade deadline. But
27:31
they they fired the trainer and they fought
27:34
my way. Someone doesn't Seem was in the
27:36
Western Conference finals a year ago. And
27:38
they fired or coach some. Enter
27:40
make it a tiny deals when they were below five
27:42
hundred a year ago. I.
27:45
i applaud their efforts i don't applaud
27:47
them firing their coats because it'll take
27:49
their coach was the novel and that's
27:52
the brawn doing that yes but i'm
27:54
just my point is that you thought
27:56
it seems with significantly more on their
27:58
resume the last two years that
28:00
is trying to move pieces around and
28:03
trying to do something to get to where they want
28:05
to go and we
28:07
just stand in the sewage over
28:09
here. Sewage, yeah. Alright,
28:13
sorry. Bull sewage. What do you got,
28:15
Tyler? Alright, well in case you missed
28:17
it earlier, the Cubs lost to the
28:20
Brewers 3-1. That's now back-to-back games where
28:22
we've seen the bullpen squander a good
28:24
start from the starting pitcher. And
28:27
this Cubs season has had a lot
28:29
of highs. It's also had plenty of lows
28:31
as well. We look at Albert Alsley on
28:33
his five-blown saves. You also look at the
28:35
fact that, hey, this Cubs team right now
28:37
is still 19-14 five games above 500 with
28:42
some young emerging stars too.
28:44
Has this Cubs season been more
28:46
frustrating or fun? It's
28:49
a great question, Tyler. And
28:52
today, I am finally putting my
28:54
foot down. I am no longer
28:56
at this point using
28:58
the... and you're
29:00
still five over 500. Like,
29:03
no more of that. Like, five over 500 after all
29:05
this. I'm
29:08
not... This is not about where you sit in
29:10
the standings any longer for you. No, it's... There's
29:14
too many of these now. Now it's
29:17
come to the breaking point for me. It's
29:19
no longer... They are. They're breaking
29:21
point. Yeah, I mean,
29:23
I don't like the... it's
29:26
early stuff either. I
29:28
get that it's early. I understand this, but
29:30
you've lost too many games that you
29:33
should have won. And
29:35
I understand there's worse
29:37
places to be at five over 500, but
29:41
I'm not going to take the consolation
29:43
prize of, well, you're still
29:45
five over. It's
29:48
certainly been a fun season, so
29:50
I won't say it's been more
29:52
frustrating than fun, but I'm
29:55
not also going to just say,
29:57
well... like
30:01
it could be worse. Well, I mean, listen,
30:03
I'm not saying yes, I do.
30:05
And I would add the following, and
30:08
I'm not a Cubs fan. What's
30:12
fun about your, all the guys you're
30:14
supposed to be leaning on for big
30:17
seasons underachieving. What's fun about a bullpen
30:19
that stinks? What's fun about
30:21
watching half of your rotation go out
30:23
with injury? Yeah. Like you're
30:25
right. Take the record, take all that other stuff
30:27
out of the way. What has been fun about
30:29
what you've seen? They've
30:31
hit one or no home runs in
30:33
10 straight games. Right. What's fun about
30:36
that? Well, here's what I would say
30:38
is fun, all right? You beat the
30:40
Dodgers in a series this year. You've
30:42
beaten the defending NL champion Diamondbacks in
30:44
a road series this year. You swept
30:46
the Astros. Even as bad as they've
30:48
been, it's still a sweep of the
30:50
Astros. Like there have been moments. Shota
30:52
Imanaga has been fun. Yes. Ziyang
30:55
fun. Michael Bush has been a
30:57
nice surprise for your team. There
30:59
have been moments where this team
31:01
has been fun. But like
31:03
Sylvie said, today felt like a breaking point.
31:05
And maybe a breaking point that could cause
31:07
a little bit of action. Yeah. I've
31:11
reached the point of saying enough
31:14
with, and at least there are
31:16
five over. So I'm
31:18
no longer leaning on that. But I will say
31:20
it's still been more fun than frustrated. Has it
31:22
been fun in the last 10 days? No. OK.
31:24
Well, I mean, it was fun two
31:27
nights ago when they won that game with the play
31:29
at the play. That was fun. That was a lot
31:31
thrilling. I was lucky. It was lucky, but it was
31:34
lucky can be run. Yeah. You
31:37
answer the question. You're a Die Hard Cubs fan. Have
31:40
you been more frustrated or fun? I'm more
31:42
frustrated at this point, especially when
31:45
you factor it. Injuries are frustrating to me.
31:47
And with the way that this team has
31:50
had injury after injury surface
31:52
over the course of this season, and
31:54
the blown saves on top of it, I'm now
31:56
at the threshold of frustrating. But
32:00
is it close is it like that really close
32:02
like a 53 47 percent? Yeah,
32:06
I would probably I mean maybe even more narrow
32:08
like 52 or 50 like it
32:10
is very close Don't get me wrong But
32:12
today is one of those games you division
32:14
game your first divisional game of the year
32:16
by the way divisional game
32:18
like that was one that you felt like you
32:20
had to have can I add an addendum or
32:23
a Can I piggyback here
32:25
on the question has it
32:27
been more frustrating or funny on the
32:29
south side? I Think
32:32
funny Mmm, when
32:34
your top storyline is a milkshake that to
32:36
me is funny. You're not a
32:38
socks fan. That's why That's
32:42
why They even at
32:44
this point. It's beyond frustrating. What are
32:46
they six and 26? What's their record
32:48
six and 26? I believe yeah, they
32:50
are Six and
32:53
25 my bad soon to be six and
32:55
26 tonight So
32:57
I look at this point If
33:02
you're a socks being you're using humor as a
33:04
defense right? Yeah, but I mean in Chucky I
33:06
mean, are you really I know
33:08
you? Do you even have the
33:10
energy to be frustrated at this point? Well, that was
33:12
gonna be my other question Like do you even feel
33:14
anything? I? Mean
33:17
it's just I think socks fans feel
33:19
anger Still or
33:22
apathy anger have become anger comes before
33:24
apathy as a fan I don't think
33:26
they're angry at the team per se
33:28
because the team itself is they are
33:30
who they are it right? Yeah,
33:33
anger your owner's higher. Yes, of course
33:35
like like with our Cubs frustration The
33:37
frustrations with some of the players like
33:39
Edward Al's a lie has to be
33:41
better Dampy Swanson Ian
33:43
half those guys have to be back I
33:45
think Jesse pointed out though that still like
33:47
these guys are who they are but they're
33:50
not even playing the base the game the
33:52
way it's supposed to be played going back to
33:54
Little League and The manager needs
33:56
to be part of this you're
33:58
saying for the White Sox. Yeah. Yeah There's like
34:00
an existential crisis. But like, what
34:03
are you expecting out of Robbie
34:05
Grossman? And you know what, when you're... That's
34:07
my point. I can't be frustrated with
34:10
him. Yeah, exactly. He's just out there
34:12
collecting a check. Who blames
34:14
him? Nobody. So, one
34:16
of the other storylines surrounding this
34:18
series this weekend is Craig Council
34:20
going from the Brewers to
34:23
the Cubs this offseason to take over
34:25
their manager spot. Really not
34:27
even take over. It was more of a... They
34:29
overthrew David Ross, it felt more like.
34:32
But it was a hostile takeover. It
34:34
was a coup, it almost felt like.
34:37
But looking at this and the rivalry between
34:39
the Cubs and the Brewers, are the Cubs
34:41
and Brewers a bigger rivalry right now than
34:43
the Cubs and the Cardinals? Oh,
34:46
yeah. Yes. I
34:48
think so. In the here and now,
34:50
right? I mean, not historically, but in the here and
34:53
now for sure, right? I think so, yeah. I
34:55
think Cubs and Brewers may give a run
34:57
for the money for Cubs and Packers. I
34:59
mean, Bears and Packers. Because
35:03
it's been more of a
35:05
rivalry lately. The
35:08
here and the now. It
35:10
hasn't been a rivalry. It is up to
35:12
the Bears to make it a rivalry again.
35:15
The Cubs and the Brewers has been a
35:17
rivalry. And then now they take
35:19
their manager. Now, the Brewers
35:21
have been the winning... They've
35:24
won more lately and they beat the
35:26
Cubs in game one.
35:28
What was that game? 163? Yeah,
35:30
in 2018. But like there's...
35:33
It's been in Cubs fans'
35:35
takeover. Miller
35:37
Park, I'm going up there too. Memorial Day.
35:39
Brewers won the division last year by nine
35:41
games. Yeah, the Brewers have been in the
35:43
playoffs. What is this? They've been good. Five
35:45
of the last six years now. And they're
35:47
currently in first place. But
35:50
there have been some really good games there.
35:53
The game that happened last year with the play
35:55
at the plate. There's
35:59
still been some... The Cubs have gone
36:01
through the rebuild, but before that, there were
36:03
some good games. I
36:06
remember much more competitive games in the last
36:08
15, 20 years between the Cubs
36:10
and the Brewers than the Bears and
36:12
the Packers. Well,
36:14
that's fair. I mean, the Bears and Packers hasn't been
36:16
much. It hasn't been a rivalry. A
36:19
rivalry, you know what it is, and I'm sure
36:22
everyone has mentioned, this isn't a
36:24
rivalry. This is hammer versus nail.
36:27
That's my point. Yeah. It
36:29
can be Bears and Packers, but
36:32
the Bears need to counterpunch. Yeah. Yeah.
36:36
I look at the
36:39
Brewers fans in general. They
36:41
irritate me more than the Cardinals fans
36:44
do, because it's like Cardinals fans, I
36:47
have a bigger respect, I think, for Cardinals
36:49
fans, because they get it. It
36:51
is the lifeblood. Brewers fans? Really?
36:54
Brewers fans pick you up? Oh, they parachute
36:56
in when that team's good. Really? I
36:58
think that's all Milwaukee, not all
37:00
Wisconsin, but all Milwaukee pro sports
37:02
fans are big parachutors when the
37:04
going is good. Okay. Wow.
37:07
The parachute fans. But most fan bases,
37:09
parachutors, isn't there a lone portion of most
37:12
fan bases? But
37:14
like, okay, look at the Cardinals. The Cardinals
37:16
are always, like, their fans are there no
37:18
matter what. Cubs fans are going to
37:20
be there no matter what. I respect the Cardinals fans. That's all
37:22
they have in St. Louis. Right. It is their baseball
37:24
team. And like, Milwaukee is like, all
37:26
right, the Bucks have been good and the Brewers have been
37:28
good. But what happens here? What happens when
37:30
it goes the other way? No one's going to that
37:32
park. No one's going to that stadium.
37:36
I've also gotten the sense that the Cubs
37:38
and Brewers don't like the players have
37:41
more animosity towards each other over the last
37:44
seven or eight years than they have with the Cardinals. Maybe
37:47
that's just me misreading how things are misremembering how
37:49
things have gone. But I've always gotten the sense
37:51
of those, maybe a little more attention when those
37:53
teams play. I feel
37:55
like I remember more dugout clearing situations. Really?
37:58
You were... Cubs, Brewers
38:00
start out clearing. I'm trying to think maybe not do a clearing.
38:02
I don't know. I just I'm waiting
38:04
Yeah, I'm with you Charlie. I think it's been a
38:06
little more chippy between the two in Brewers Yeah,
38:10
I would I would agree with that's right It
38:13
was with council and Ross right? Didn't
38:16
they have like the cancellation to and the
38:18
roof between the roof being then wasn't there
38:20
a Cancellation when the Sun
38:22
was out one day at Wrigley and
38:24
wasn't there some stuff between the roof
38:26
open and closed Milwaukee vaguely remembered. I
38:29
definitely remember the The
38:31
cancellation of the game that's on out
38:33
that pissed off the the brewers. Yeah.
38:35
Yeah Yeah, yeah, my first impression of
38:37
counsel when he took over the Brewers
38:39
was like not a good one I thought
38:41
he was whining kind of annoying when it first
38:43
started now, you know guys great to me, but
38:45
yeah He's your coach or he's your
38:48
manager now. And it was good stuff

I'm a well that's run dry

with new shows. I'm afraid to
40:15
watch the show you suggested Because
40:18
you've just said it's a freaky show and I'm
40:20
not really looking for freaky right now. I just
40:23
finished last night Watching
40:26
the Sopranos entire series for the
40:28
second time I
40:30
have a void I feel a little
40:32
empty right now Because that happens to me
40:35
when I'm done with a series so
40:37
you don't want to so I did
40:39
the show that you're talking about His
40:41
baby reindeer. Yeah, that you finished it up
40:43
finished all seven episodes. It's getting a
40:45
ton of play It's like
40:47
that. Is it a true story? It is it
40:49
is. It's a true story and but he is
40:52
kept the names because It's
40:55
very very sale anyone going to jail. Well
40:59
they should but this
41:01
part of the It's
41:04
as dark of a show as you'll ever
41:06
watch and it is it will
41:08
make you as Uncomfortable as
41:11
any show has ever made you feel no
41:13
sale. Why do I want it? Why do
41:15
I want that? Are you serious like that
41:17
is a very very? Very
41:20
Definitive and the scripture and the
41:22
guy that is who created the
41:24
show and whose life it's based
41:26
on is the star of the
41:28
show So he is the
41:30
star of the show the stalker or the
41:32
one being stalked He's
41:35
the one being stalked internally as
41:37
a comedian the comedian in England
41:39
I Mean
41:44
that's a really dark show my my buddy
41:46
Tom Loxis Texted
41:50
me and he said damn you
41:52
for making me watch bigger range I'm not
41:55
like an item make him but I suggested
41:57
the show again like discussion
42:00
here but it is it
42:02
has been the number one show and I believe
42:04
it's like do
42:06
one of the most downloaded clothes in Netflix
42:09
history are most people responding in the same
42:11
way yes yes do are there a lot
42:13
of people that are regretting I don't know
42:15
if they regret it I don't regret watching
42:18
it my wife has been in the background
42:20
while I've watched it and she is bothered
42:23
by it yes very much
42:25
so well I'm just gonna keep
42:27
it simple and tell you game one of
42:29
the T-wolves and nuggets is what I'm looking
42:31
for on Saturday let's say I'm
42:34
like I said I'm done with sugar is
42:36
a good a good show they
42:38
come out with a new episode every
42:40
Friday I didn't get this week but
42:42
I'll watch it this weekend but
42:44
I am intrigued as the you know
42:47
as the NBA playoffs roll on I
42:49
get more and more interested and T-wolf
42:52
nug seems to be a pretty interesting potentially
42:55
pretty interesting series game one is set
42:57
six o'clock on Saturday I'll give you
42:59
something a little lighter but it's not
43:02
it's not as light as you would
43:04
think okay this is Netflix I didn't
43:06
watch the whole episode yet match murder
43:09
real story our buddy
43:14
I bet you our buddy good time patty
43:16
boil has this on his list where he's
43:18
already watched it is this the Michigan State
43:20
thing what
43:23
athlete a that's old are you
43:25
talking about no this is I've always
43:27
watched all the episodes of it too
43:29
because David Letterman is one of my
43:32
favorite guys ever they released
43:34
a new my next guest with David
43:36
Letterman and it's with John
43:38
Mulaney John Mulaney is the comedian from
43:40
here and it is filmed in Chicago
43:43
this one and then so I say that
43:45
it's it's got a touch
43:47
of heaviness to it because he discusses
43:50
his addiction him and Dave both have
43:52
addiction in their path but I mean you
43:54
know they talk about being a comic and and
43:56
stuff like that so it's very very good it's
43:58
in front of us studio audience here
44:01
in Chicago. What was Letterman's
44:03
addiction? Booze? I believe
44:05
so, yeah. Really? Yes. And
44:07
Mulaney had a booze problem too? I believe it
44:09
was Pills. Oh really? It may have been both.
44:12
Um, I did not know that. Yeah, but
44:14
I think he, where did he go Mulaney?
44:16
Was it St. Ignatius? He's from
44:19
here and uh... Yes, St.
44:21
Ignatius. So it's a very good, very
44:23
good one. Again, that's Netflix. That's
44:25
my what to watch for. What do you guys have? Alright,
44:27
mine, you will have to go to the good old theater
44:30
if you want to see it, and
44:32
that is Challengers. It is the new
44:34
tennis movie with Zendaya in it. I've
44:37
heard very good things about it. Like, I was very
44:39
skeptical about it because I'm not like a big, like,
44:41
sports movie person, but I've heard very
44:44
good reviews about Challengers. You're not a sports
44:46
movie person? No, I think, I think sports
44:48
movies are all the same. Even
44:52
the good ones? Like, what
44:54
are the good ones? Jerry
44:56
McGuire, Rocky, Hoosiers, Bad
44:58
News Bears. But like, you know it's gonna happen. What
45:00
do you mean you know it's gonna happen? Moneyball
45:02
is based on a true story. Friday Night Lights.
45:05
I don't think I've seen the movie, I've seen
45:07
the TV show, but not the movie. Friday Night
45:10
Lights is great because you don't. Like, I would
45:12
bet you it's very unpredictable in the end. Okay.
45:15
You have to watch Friday Night Lights the movie.
45:17
Okay. And it is, it's based
45:19
on a true story. Remember
45:22
the Titans? Did you see that? That's
45:24
a true story. Yeah. A lot going
45:26
on. Friday Night Lights is based on a true story.
45:28
I did not know that. Yeah. All
45:31
right. But yeah, Challengers is mine for this
45:34
weekend. Oh, by
45:36
the way, what was your last week's movie?
45:38
I watched the movie Tyler recommended and it
45:40
was great. Anyone but you. Fun,
45:43
fun movie on Netflix. So like, kind
45:45
of like a classic rom-com. Yes, it
45:47
was great. Watch it. What
45:50
do you got, Charlie? I don't think it's
45:52
gonna be particularly good, but I'm gonna check
45:54
out Unfrosted, the pop-tart movie on Netflix, just
45:56
out of, I guess, more
45:58
of a curiosity. Yeah,
46:01
it's on Netflix. It's it's
46:03
fictional. It appears like it's
46:06
He's had a whole joke like he's had an obsession
46:08
with Pop-Tarts Jerry Seinfeld going back to the 80s and
46:10
90s So I'm
46:12
curious what this weird sort of Passion
46:15
project is of his but
46:17
I'm gonna go with unfrost I thought some
46:19
of the interviews and he's always had an
46:22
obsession with cereal in general. Yeah, I love
46:24
cereal love cereal So that
46:26
that's I'm so great a serial
46:28
at age 70 Nice
46:31
cereal. We are not 70. Well, is
46:33
there a cutoff date? I don't know
46:36
asking like do you does your Does
46:39
your palate change or does your craving change for
46:41
stuff like that as you get older? I don't
46:43
know I Love
46:46
cereal. Do you have
46:48
a net of cereal in a long
46:51
time? Your palate changing from like your
46:53
40s to 70s isn't a thing. No,
46:55
I try. I don't know I mean
46:58
just saying I don't know if
47:00
you're eating habits changes you get older It's like
47:02
they have to write more oatmeal more cream. I
47:04
need oatmeal In your 70s. No
47:08
Charlie that you know, it's a Stereotypical
47:11
statement. That's what my grandkids
47:14
you're just coming at those of us that are
47:16
older why because your grandfather Density
47:19
did your grandfather lose his teeth is
47:21
that why no, he just
47:23
liked it I don't know grandfather didn't have
47:25
any teeth. So he probably always a lot
47:27
of Oatmeal that man didn't
47:29
have teeth for it since I knew him. How
47:31
did he eat? I
47:35
know I mean he would who
47:37
would what I Don't
47:39
think he like he had false teeth, but I
47:41
don't think he put him in very frequently He
47:43
just gum the hell out of whatever he was eating.
47:45
I Mean I Don't
47:48
think he put his teeth in often. I know we
47:50
had some but would he scare you?
47:54
When he smiled. Yeah, when I was really young.
47:56
Yeah, but after a while you just got used
47:58
to it That's
48:00
Grandma Lloyd. Yeah. Overalls
48:03
with no T-shirt on underneath it, no
48:05
teeth. Passing out. Passing out halfway through
48:08
a conversation because he had black lung.
48:12
You had a dog that passed out and a grandpa
48:14
that passed out. My dog would
48:16
just have seizures and bite you. It
48:19
didn't pass out. My
48:21
dog didn't pass out. I think it's
48:23
my favorite Waddle story. He would just
48:25
like, it was, some crazy stuff
48:28
went on. My
48:30
grandma, she had like probably, you know one
48:33
of my biggest regrets is is she had
48:35
the world's, maybe one of the, had
48:38
to be top 10 world's greatest eldest
48:40
figurine collections of all time. But that's
48:42
cool. I don't know where any of them are. Oh,
48:45
that would be worth a ton. Yes. You
48:47
gotta find them. Gone. You didn't, what
48:49
was it, Shih Tzu? Is that what
48:52
you had? No, no, we just had a mutt. Oh,
48:54
it was a mutt, but he used to run around
48:56
in circles, have a seizure and then pass out? Did
48:58
he really pass out? No, he
49:00
would bite you. Wasn't
49:02
a he, it was a she. Fluffy. Fluffy
49:06
would say, we had a five level house. You walk in the
49:08
door and there was a mat, right? As you walked in on
49:10
the left and the dog would
49:12
always be laying on the mat and the
49:14
door. And like, if somebody came into
49:17
the house and they're like, oh, a nice dog and the
49:19
dog and me, and I'm like, argh,
49:21
it would bite you. Were there
49:23
only five dog names to pick
49:25
from in that? Like, I swear,
49:27
like every dog is named Fluffy
49:29
or Fido. To your point, to
49:31
your point, Charlie, my
49:33
mom and dad, they
49:36
had Fluffy, Scruffy, Wally, and
49:40
then Fluffy again, or Scruffy again, two Scruffy.
49:43
Two Scruffys, Wally, my mom had
49:45
two dogs named Frisky, like two
49:47
different dogs. We've
49:49
had a dog run a science with
49:51
names in the last 20 years. Three,
49:55
one, two, three, three, two, three, seven, seven. I could
49:57
never name my dog When this one
49:59
goes. Another one if we gotta know like
50:01
and never name is Lola. You.
50:04
Couldn't blame. That's all my parents did.
50:06
They named everyone and their dogs say
50:08
five of the same dogs in Henry.
50:11
Henry the First, Henry the Second
50:14
hundred as I was more or
50:16
less brand my grandparents battling score
50:18
at all name sicker like throughout
50:21
my life sister. Seeker yeah
50:23
don't really know what I mean. I
50:25
have made your your Jack Sigma because
50:28
the guys lived in of great Northwest
50:30
know this honest player. I.
50:33
Would doubt that. The
50:35
Jews. Muslims names are still has a silver
50:38
Henry are yeah my mom does. She called
50:40
the dog like Henry the fifth nodes his
