1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000
And now it's time for...

2
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,000
The Daily Deucebag Pledge

3
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:29,000
Here at Two Deucebags in a Microphone, we don't stand behind our journalistic integrity.

4
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:34,000
Go ahead and assume we got the story wrong. At least we admit it.

5
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:40,000
Not like all those other guys, we can and will lie if it makes the story better.

6
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,000
Two Deucebags and a Microphone

7
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,000
We are...

8
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,000
Jesus.

9
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:59,000
Kicking your ass, with size 15 clown boots and a deep Tracy hat.

10
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:06,000
And now, Deep Thoughts with Mark.

11
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:22,000
Hmm. If I was to speak into a megaphone backwards, would it then sound like a whisper? Hmm. I may never know.

12
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:39,000
You watched the news. It was grim. Is an apocalypse inevitable? We suggest you download all our podcasts beforehand and have multiple mobile chargers. We have the post-apocalypse.

13
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Learn your soils. You will need drinking and bath water. You must build a reservoir. The key to hold water in the ground are the clays you have at its base. Research water purification methods and wild game will attract to the water as well.

14
00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:17,000
Hi everybody. Thanks for joining us. Or me, I guess. The regular podcast, this is a regular podcast and is a solo cast until further notice or forever or until I get completely tired of doing this and just never get near it again.

15
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:36,000
Whichever is first, that's what it is. But Topher and I will continue to do the NFL picks and then after that hopefully we can just do a sports show or something like we have been doing twice a week. We record it all in one day down at the River Market and then split it up into two. So that's two a week.

16
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:56,000
So anyhow, kind of concentrating on more quality than quantity this time around. So anyhow, and if I do have another partner or co-host or whatever, it's got to be the right one.

17
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:09,000
I'm just not going to, I'm not going to let the podcast, it's going to maintain a certain quality. So anyhow, start off here.

18
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:30,000
John Bon Jovi helps talk a woman down from a ledge on a Nashville bridge. The Nashville bridge is the pedestrian bridge. And anyone that's familiar with lower Broadway, which is entertainment district that has all Blake Shelton and the guy from American Idol, I forgot his name.

19
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:46,000
We all have bars down there, the Reg Nets, the Rivi area is there and there's Jack's Barbecue and all these, all these places. And it's a really neat area. And it's right on the pedestrian bridge is right on the side of there going over the Cumberland River.

20
00:04:46,000 --> 00:05:06,000
And if you get on the pedestrian bridge, you can look over and see the skyline is a beautiful picture and the Cumberland River is pretty cool looking. So anyhow, the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, John Bon Jovi and a video production assistant persuaded women standing on the ledge of the pedestrian bridge over the Cumberland River.

21
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:11,000
Bon Jovi was filming a music video on the bridge, which remained open during the shoot.

22
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:25,000
The rocker and assistant talked to the woman and eventually convinced her to not jump. It was later revealed that John Bon Jovi had to pinky swear to never wear his tight leather pants on stage ever again.

23
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:31,000
I think it's pretty good deal. Yeah, she got off the ledge and he pinky swore never to do it again.

24
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:38,000
It was later revealed that John Bon Jovi looks just like Jamie Lee Curtis.

25
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:53,000
If you put them side to side, picture to picture, you'll see what I mean. Google it. If you don't know who Jamie Lee Curtis is. And if you do, just think about Bon Jovi's latest picture and Jamie Lee Curtis. You'll see what I mean.

26
00:05:53,000 --> 00:06:03,000
McDonald's has released a new line of Happy Meal Crocs. As if the Hello Kitty toys in the child's meal weren't enough to make an average parent cry.

27
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Now the new Happy Meal will have keychain crocs in the meal. That's right. These are not real crocs, of course, because that would take up the whole bag.

28
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:21,000
So they're little replica crocs that are made keychains. So they're keychain crocs and they're in these Happy Meals.

29
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:30,000
I don't know how many children have keys that will want a Happy Meal, but you know what? If you do have keys, well, there you go.

30
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:38,000
So these toys are small figuring keychains of the famous McD's characters. I do have a suggestion though.

31
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:45,000
Get your child a drool cup. The toxic waste that these Chinese toys might contain could have an adverse effect.

32
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:55,000
Allegedly. And now for something completely unusual and different. Actually, another entertainment. So, you know, another entertainer.

33
00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:05,000
Flavor Flav signed a seven year sponsorship with the Boys and Girls water polo team. What Flavor Flav and water polo have in common?

34
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:16,000
I have no clue. But he did this. He also had the chance to hit the closing bill for Wall Street because they launched this new venture and, you know,

35
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:26,000
and then it's public trading. So he got to hit the gavel at the end. Flav hit the gavel so hard that the rubber drum come off the gavel

36
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:36,000
and flew and hit his press guy in the face. The press guy is OK, but I mean, he he said it was good luck. Flavor Flav said it was good luck to smash the gavel hard,

37
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:46,000
which he did. Further examination revealed he taped a picture of Bridget Nelson on the desk. It worked.

38
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:55,000
All right. In today's Mark investigates, it's pissants. We've all heard the term pissants, right?

39
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:03,000
That's pissant. You know, you know, equating someone to a pissant or something. It's kind of like demeaning, like they're a little minute.

40
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:11,000
Well, I always wondered if there really is a pissant. So, you know, I'm pretty confident that everyone's heard the term pissant.

41
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:23,000
So does a pissant does it really exist? The answer is yes. They are really a term for a species of ants.

42
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:34,000
The real name is very similar, but it would be pronounced in one word pissant, pissant, not pissant. It would be pissant as in one word.

43
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:46,000
Very similar, but it the common way of saying it is pissant. And anyhow, the original pissant is a certain group of large ant species,

44
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:54,000
also known as wood ants. This ant has a reddish head and neck area with mostly black abdomen and legs. I think we've all seen these before.

45
00:08:54,000 --> 00:09:00,000
They're big ants. They can be intrusive, especially at picnics or outdoor activities.

46
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:12,000
They also have a nickname sugar ants because the insects love of sugar. Now that you know that, nothing's changed except the knowledge of pissants.

47
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:24,000
You are welcome. So now we go to hostess. You know, the snack cake people, their new Halloween lineup.

48
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:32,000
New hostess frankincakes, frankincakes like Frankenstein only put a cakes on the end of it and take off the Stein.

49
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:44,000
A yellow cupcake with signature cream filling topped with green icing and an icing squiggle, whatever the hell a squiggle is. That's what's on here.

50
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:53,000
Hostess spooky Twinkies chocolate sponge cake with signature cream filling and hostess Gary cakes.

51
00:09:53,000 --> 00:10:05,000
A chocolate cupcake with signature cream filling topped with orange icing and the brand signature icing squiggle. Okay, the squiggles that little, you know,

52
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:14,000
kind of weird line, circle line, whatever. Okay. Hostess Halloween snacks are available in multi packs and new family size trick or treat packs.

53
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:27,000
Both packages sizes consist of snack cakes and individually wrapped in Halloween themed plastic wrappers. Hostess spooky Twinkies and hostess scary cakes also come in single serve packages.

54
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:42,000
So there you go. And also in addition to this, they this is every year. Yearly they have a hostess pumpkin spice Twinkies golden sponge cake with a pumpkin spice flavored cream filling, filling available in multi packs.

55
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:54,000
Hostess size pumpkin cupcakes, a pumpkin flavored cupcake with signature cream filling topped with white icing and a signature icing squiggle available in single serve packs and multi packs.

56
00:10:54,000 --> 00:11:04,000
And finally hostess maple glazed donuts. Now that sounds pretty good. I mean, all of it sounds good, but maple glazed donuts sound fantastic.

57
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:14,000
Bite sized cake donuts covered with a sweet maple flavored glaze available in single serve packs and multi packs. Pretty cool.

58
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:25,000
Yeah, I think I will delve into some of these when I get a chance at the store. So we move along.

59
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:39,000
So anyhow, let's see. I got some other stories here. Let me take a look here. Well, it seems as though some people are upset with Al Michaels, you know, the great broadcaster.

60
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:56,000
He was on NBC for years and now he's on Amazon Prime. For what I understand, he got tired of, you know, them flexing the schedule and he was supposed to go to, I don't know, California, but instead he had to go to New York or Texas or something.

61
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:09,000
He didn't like it. You know, he's pretty old. I mean, I think he's like 76. So he doesn't feel like doing that game anymore. Who can blame him? So he wanted to go to something that they couldn't flex. And that is a Thursday night game.

62
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:22,000
But I did notice this year that Thursday night games are better matchups. So the first one was, of course, you know, the Ravens at Arrowhead Stadium versus the Chiefs, a replay of the championship game.

63
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:35,000
And my my chiefies won. They they took it by six points. And oh, no, seven points, actually. Very happy with that. But it was a great game.

64
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:45,000
Now, this next game is should have been a great game, but it was the Bills against the Dolphins in Miami. So the Bills just dismantled them.

65
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:54,000
But the first two of the Tagovaiola had three interceptions and he had a concussion that made him leave the game.

66
00:12:54,000 --> 00:13:01,000
So the game was really lopsided and it was really kind of boring. So anyhow, no one thought there's going to come back anyhow.

67
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:16,000
But anyhow, it didn't help any that they that Tagovaiola went out with a game with a concussion, so they didn't have their starting quarterback. But the first interception was not his fault.

68
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:24,000
It was a deflect and the guy should have had the ball. He should have caught it and deflected right into a Bills players hands.

69
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:33,000
So that was in Tagovaiola's fault. But you could suddenly just seem it looked like his confidence kind of was hurt by that.

70
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:38,000
You know, right out of the bat, he gets an interception. He's like, oh, man, you can see it's just kind of sitting there.

71
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:44,000
Man, this sucks. So the next two interceptions were horrible. They were bad throws.

72
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:48,000
And I think it got to him. That first interception kind of got in his psyche.

73
00:13:48,000 --> 00:14:04,000
So everything's going horrible. And I think it's the third quarter. Tagovaiola has the ball, runs with it, and he runs straight into Damar Hamlin's abdomen area.

74
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:09,000
And he fell and got a concussion again. This is his third.

75
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:20,000
So he I don't know, you know, he he ought to consider retirement at his young age. And the reason is, is because three concussions is too many.

76
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:25,000
You don't want you don't want residual effects that are horrible about this.

77
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:37,000
So maybe it's time to just go and hang up the cleats. But people were talking about Al Michaels being I don't know, less than enthusiastic with this game.

78
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:44,000
I'm sorry, the game started being a blowout early on. And he probably was bored.

79
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:52,000
And how can you hype up a game like that, really, where everything that could go right went right for the Bills and everything that could go wrong went wrong for the Dolphins?

80
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:57,000
It was something that they had a couple of strokes of bad luck and it just escalated.

81
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:04,000
So anyhow, people are all over Al Michaels saying you need to retire and you know, you don't care about the game anymore.

82
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:12,000
But you know what? I mean, I wasn't enthusiastic about watching the game because it was really, really not that good.

83
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:17,000
It wasn't that competitive. And it was just it was kind of boring.

84
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:22,000
And I watched the whole game. Topher, me and Topher watched the whole game.

85
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:28,000
And I mean, we both kept losing track. We just started talking because the game was that boring.

86
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:36,000
So what I'm doing here is I'm defending Al Michaels and I think people are doing too harsh with him because I think that he had a right to be bored.

87
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:45,000
And Kirk Herbstreet, that's not really his job. He's kind of like a siding guy that kind of makes comments here and there.

88
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:49,000
I don't know how you would tell if he sounded bored because he doesn't.

89
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:58,000
He's doing fine, but he doesn't do enough to really recognize whether he is, you know, bored or not.

90
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:03,000
So anyhow, I just wanted to add that in there. I think Al Michaels had a right to be bored.

91
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,000
The game was horrible and it just went to hell quickly.

92
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:12,000
So I say let him you know, he was fine with the Chiefs versus the Ravens.

93
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:18,000
There wasn't any problem with that at all. That was a competitive game and that was a close game down to the end.

94
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:30,000
And the Ravens lost only by likely's big toe and part, you know, and being over the line.

95
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:36,000
And since he wore black cleats, you could see him plainly on a white line, which made him out of bounds.

96
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:43,000
And they changed the rules again to where you can knock a player out of bounds and they're out of bounds.

97
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:48,000
And every time they change something, the Chiefs take advantage of it quickly.

98
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:52,000
So anyhow, so that's what happened.

99
00:16:52,000 --> 00:17:00,000
And, you know, Al Michaels sounded fine on that because he was, you know, he there's a competitive game.

100
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,000
So I think if you have a competitive game going, I think Al Michaels is fine.

101
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:09,000
If you don't, he's seen too many games and he's just flat going, ho hum. And who can blame him?

102
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:17,000
So anyhow, that's that one. OK, let's move right along to Halloween costumes.

103
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:21,000
The top 10 trendy Halloween costumes of 2024.

104
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:28,000
This is the ones that they say are the trends of things going on that people are going to want to look like.

105
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:33,000
So, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know Travis and Taylor. A lot of people are doing that. Yep. Yep. Yep.

106
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:39,000
But these are good ideas if you don't want to be Travis and Taylor.

107
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:43,000
And I hope you don't because it's going to be overplayed. You know that.

108
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,000
So anyhow, number one is AI generated avatars.

109
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:57,000
This year, AI is all the rage. Dress up as a futuristic AI generated avatar with neon lights, cool gadgets and holographic accessories.

110
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:03,000
The tech savvy costume will make you look like you're stepped straight out of a sci fi movie.

111
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:10,000
I think that's pretty cool. And I bet it is the rage. I mean, if you think about it, it is. Everything's AI now.

112
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:15,000
Hey, I could be AI. You don't know, man. Maybe I just told the computer to take my voice and do this shit.

113
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:20,000
It'd probably be a hell of a lot better. Probably more entertaining at least.

114
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:31,000
Number two, retro video game characters, retro is back in style. Characters from classic video games like Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Super Mario are making a big comeback.

115
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:36,000
Choose your favorite and get creative with pixelated costumes and do it yourself props.

116
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:41,000
Now, I knew this was going to come back at some time, the retro video games.

117
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,000
They sell them at stores now like Costco. They sell them again.

118
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:51,000
But I bought mine a few years ago. I bought mine like seven years ago. A guy in Belt, Missouri is refurbishing them.

119
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:56,000
And it's an actually 80s one. It's a 1943 game. It's a pilot game.

120
00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:01,000
And what he did was he put a new disc in there that had 60 of the classic games.

121
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:08,000
And then he put one had the original. It still has the original joystick from the 80s.

122
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:14,000
And the other one has a newer one. So which one you like calibrated how it is, is the one you use.

123
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:18,000
I always use the original one. That's what I was good on back in the day.

124
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:24,000
So anyhow, when I got this, I asked him, the guy's name is Brett. I said, hey, how popular are these?

125
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:28,000
And he said, I'm always taking one somewhere. I'm always fixing them up.

126
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:35,000
So I knew it was kind of being something people like me, you know, reminiscing about the past and wanting something from there that was, you know,

127
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:42,000
that would signify the past or something to take you back in time. Nostalgic.

128
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:47,000
And that is, you know, a video arcade games. So I kind of knew there's something to it.

129
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:53,000
Talking to him, he said that, you know, he sold a ton of them. And I believe I got it off of eBay.

130
00:19:53,000 --> 00:20:02,000
I think that's who how he was selling them. So number three, popular streamers and YouTubers.

131
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:07,000
Show your love for your family streamers and YouTubers by dressing up as them.

132
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:16,000
Get gaming icons to beauty vloggers. Pick someone you admire and replicate their signature look for fun and recognizable costume.

133
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:21,000
Number four, superheroes with a twist. Superheroes are always a hit.

134
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:27,000
But this year, put a unique spin on your costume, mix and match different superhero elements,

135
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:34,000
create a gender swap version or invent your own superhero persona with a creative backstory.

136
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:40,000
Yeah, you could be like, I don't know, Zitman. I don't know.

137
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:46,000
I don't know. Weird walk guy. I don't know. Whatever your superpower is.

138
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:54,000
So number five, I can understand people doing this, but this is kind of boring to me. Characters from hit TV shows.

139
00:20:54,000 --> 00:21:01,000
Binge watching your favorite shows can pay off characters from popular series like Stranger Things.

140
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:09,000
Oh, OK, I get it now. OK. All right. So you're not like dressing up like Matlock or Mannix.

141
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:20,000
Look it up if you don't know the Mandalorian, the euphoria and perfect choices recreate their iconic look with detailed costume and props.

142
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:27,000
So there look up Mannix, M-I-N-N-I-X. And if you do know, then you do know.

143
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:31,000
But if you want to know, you're a little bit younger. Look it up.

144
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:36,000
So number six, mythical creatures with a modern touch.

145
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:45,000
Unicorns, dragons and mermaids are timeless choices, but gave them a modern twist with LED lights, metallic fabrics and edgy accessories.

146
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:53,000
These mythical creatures will make you shine in any Halloween event. Sounds good.

147
00:21:53,000 --> 00:22:03,000
Number seven, eco friendly warriors show your support for the environment with a costume made entirely from recycled materials.

148
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:11,000
Dress up as an eco warrior, complete with a cape made from plastic bags or a shield made from cardboard.

149
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:16,000
So creative and impactful way to make a statement. I kind of like that.

150
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:26,000
That's pretty cool. You know, you're kind of making a statement, but at the same time, you're really using your imagination.

151
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,000
So that's pretty cool. I like it.

152
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:36,000
Number eight, a classic horror movie icon. I love this one, but I'm a horror movie buff. I always have been.

153
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:45,000
So anyhow, classic horror characters like Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers never get out of style.

154
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:50,000
These scary costumes are perfect for those who want to embrace the spooky side of Halloween.

155
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,000
Yeah, you know what? Those have been going on forever, too.

156
00:22:53,000 --> 00:23:01,000
Anyhow, I mean, I still see, you know, whenever kids are trick or treating, I still see the hockey mask from Jason Voorhees.

157
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:07,000
I still see the Michael Myers mask from, you know, Halloween. I see the Freddy Krueger's.

158
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:11,000
They've never really went away, but I guess they're a little bit more popular this year.

159
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:16,000
I mean, I see pinhead. I've seen some really good pinheads.

160
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:24,000
I mean, they had to have taken a long time to make these versions of them because they look fantastic with the needles all over his head and all that.

161
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:32,000
So anyhow, fantasy book characters bring your favorite book character to life, whether it's Harry Potter.

162
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:45,000
Katrina's Everdeen from The Hunger Games or Percy Jackson dressing up as a beloved character from a fantasy novel is sure to be a hit.

163
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:50,000
And number 10 cultural icons from the 2000s.

164
00:23:50,000 --> 00:24:00,000
The early 2000s are making a comeback. Think pop stars, fashion icons, movie characters from that era from Britney Spears to The Matrix.

165
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:06,000
These nostalgic costumes will definitely turn heads. That's a pretty good idea, too.

166
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:14,000
I like that one. And here's some tips for making your Halloween costume stand out.

167
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:20,000
Do it yourself elements and do yourself element to your costume can make it unique and personal.

168
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:25,000
Customize accessories, props and even parts of the outfit to match your style.

169
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:30,000
Attention to detail. Focus on the small details and make the character recognizable.

170
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,000
This could be a specific accessory, hairstyle or makeup look.

171
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:39,000
Comfort is key. Make sure your costume is comfortable enough to wear all day at school.

172
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:44,000
Avoid heavy or restrictive materials that can make it difficult to move around. And I've done that before.

173
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:54,000
I wore like a really heavy rogue rogue. I think they call it a rogue robe and it like real heavy and it hangs down.

174
00:24:54,000 --> 00:25:01,000
And then I had the executioner mask and that all the I was just sweating wherever I went. Halloween party or whatever.

175
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:06,000
I was just miserable and look cool, but I was miserable.

176
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:10,000
Group costumes. Coordinate with friends for a group costume.

177
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:17,000
This can be a fun way to enhance your look and make a bigger impact. I've seen great group costumes.

178
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:22,000
So anyhow, one was a centipede that I seen and it had like seven people in it.

179
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:29,000
It was long and everyone were walking in unison under the under the centipede blanket thing.

180
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,000
It's pretty cool. Practice makes perfect.

181
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:41,000
If a costume involves special makeup or unique hairstyle, practice ahead of time to ensure you can nail the look on Halloween day.

182
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:49,000
So there you go. Anyhow, I thought that's pretty good little segment. I hope you liked it too.

183
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:55,000
So I assume everybody listening has heard the phrase with bells on.

184
00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:06,000
This is another Mark Investigates series and this is where I find these old phrases and I find out where they came from and exactly what they meant.

185
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:11,000
So this is I'll be there with bells on. You always hear that or at least I do.

186
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:17,000
I mean, at least my part of the woods. That's what I hear a lot. Oh, yeah. I'll be there with bells on.

187
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:27,000
Well, it turns out that early settlers in the US were going along like the Santa Fe Trail and places like that.

188
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:33,000
You know, there wasn't gravel. These were just indentations in the ground and it was easy to get stuck.

189
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:40,000
If you got in a rainy season, those big wooden wagon wheels would get stuck and they'd be very hard to get out.

190
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:50,000
So anyhow, if a wagon became stuck, a wagon driver who came to the rescue often asked for a set of bells as a reward.

191
00:26:50,000 --> 00:27:02,000
Arriving at a destination without the bells would hurt a driver's professional pride, whereas getting there with bells on was a source of satisfaction.

192
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:11,000
So anyhow, it also another one that they speculate think it might have came before that before that.

193
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:16,000
OK, so it's kind of like a before before, but only on the other side of the world.

194
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:24,000
Seventy seventeenth century Europe, the phrase may have originated when people were traveling to a party and might experience a mishap.

195
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:32,000
For example, a driver might need to give up their horse's bell straps as a ransom for being rescued.

196
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:39,000
So anyhow, and then we have the other one of early US settlers.

197
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:47,000
Early settlers traveled in large wooden horse drawn wagons and the horses collars were fitted with headdresses of bells.

198
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:52,000
The wagon driver would take pride in their bells and tune them to their liking.

199
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:58,000
If a traveler made it to their destination with their bells still on, it meant they arrived without any trouble.

200
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,000
And to me, I think that makes the most sense.

201
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:05,000
I don't know. The one in Europe might be accurate.

202
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,000
The other one could be accurate of the US settlers.

203
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:16,000
But to me, the one that makes the most sense and how you say it and what it means is the one that I just mentioned.

204
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:21,000
And this means, you know, you're proud of your bells and you set the tune to them and all that.

205
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,000
And it meant you arrived without any trouble.

206
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,000
So that's what it would mean today is like, oh, I'll be there with bells on.

207
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,000
It's been that nothing stopping me. I'll be right there. It means yes.

208
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:34,000
You know, got it confirmed. I'm going to be there.

209
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:40,000
So to me, the context of the shoes to today would make more sense on that one right there.

210
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:43,000
So anyhow, there you go with bells on.

211
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:46,000
You know what? While I'm at it, let's just give you a little bonus.

212
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,000
Mark investigates the phrase.

213
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,000
Kick the bucket.

214
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:54,000
I'm pretty sure everybody has heard that and like, oh, yeah.

215
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,000
Hey, what happened to Mr. Sampson?

216
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,000
He kicked the bucket. Oh, man.

217
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,000
You know what happened? Oh, they found him dead. Whatever. OK.

218
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,000
So we all know what kick the bucket means a phrase.

219
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:12,000
So the phrase kick the bucket is an informal way of saying die that originated in the 16th century.

220
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:18,000
The phrase is thought to come from the practice of using a wooden frame called a bucket

221
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,000
and to hang animals by their feet for slaughter.

222
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:26,000
As the animals struggled and spasm, they appeared to be kicking the bucket.

223
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,000
Yeah, it's kind of morbid.

224
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:32,000
Never realized that that was so morbid. Really?

225
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,000
You know what? I mean, I wish I didn't like the taste of animals.

226
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:39,000
I wish I could just like leave those guys alone.

227
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,000
But, you know, I guess I suppose it doesn't matter.

228
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,000
They're going to kill him anyhow. But I don't know.

229
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:49,000
Every now and then I feel a little bit guilty because they're, you know,

230
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,000
there they are having their life. Then we grab them and kill them and eat them.

231
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:59,000
So anyhow, the man, a steak and a hamburger. They taste so good.

232
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:04,000
OK, so the phrase gained wider use after it was defined in Gross's dictionary.

233
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,000
I think it's Gross's. I'm not sure if it's Gross's.

234
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,000
I think it's Gross's dictionary of the vulgar tongue in 1785.

235
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:15,000
It's now used in a casual, almost joking way to refer to someone's death.

236
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:20,000
For example, my old car finally kicked the bucket, so I had to buy a new one.

237
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,000
The phrase bucket list is based on kick the bucket.

238
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:28,000
A bucket list is a list of things you want to do before you die.

239
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:34,000
So all of those are probably pretty much true about the phrase kick the bucket.

240
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:37,000
So anyhow, there you go. If you don't know, now you do know.

241
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:42,000
And if you care, now you are sat and, you know, probably happy about it.

242
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,000
If you don't care, you probably aren't even listening to this anymore.

243
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:52,000
So anyhow, tomorrow morning while grinding your coffee beans for your double mocha latte,

244
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,000
remember to not get your genitals caught in the grinder.

245
00:30:55,000 --> 00:31:01,000
It really hurts. Who can afford plastic surgery? Stay safe, everyone.

246
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:07,000
Two douchebags and microphone in an effort to keep everything fresh.

247
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:12,000
We offer you first world problems.

248
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:17,000
Damn it. The city services website is down again.

249
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:24,000
I can't believe this. I'm going to have to actually call and talk to someone to pay my damn trash bill.

250
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,000
This is ridiculous.

251
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,000
Now it's time for pick up lines from a loser.

252
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:33,000
Are you a banana? You look appealing.

253
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:40,000
Next up, things overheard in hell.

254
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:45,000
Howard Stern just signed a 10-year contract extension.

255
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:51,000
Yo mama's so stupid, she tried to climb, melt, and do.

256
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,000
Have you ever wondered where something is at?

257
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,000
Have you ever looked at something and said,

258
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,000
I wonder what the origin of that is?

259
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:04,000
Well, so have we. That's why we give you The Origin of...

260
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,000
This is the origin of eyeliner.

261
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:12,000
Eyeliner originated in ancient Egypt and has been used for thousands of years across cultures.

262
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:17,000
In Chad, young men from nomadic clans wore kohl eyeliner to attract wives.

263
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:22,000
In the Inqatali, dancers wore kajal to tell stories through their eyes.

264
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:26,000
Grandwomen use eyeliner as a symbol of resistance.

265
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:30,000
Next up, things overheard in hell.

266
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:35,000
The 24-7 Jerry Lewis Telephone is coming right up.

267
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:51,000
Alright, next coming up here we have a list of the top 10 breakfast diner foods of all time.

268
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:56,000
They did a survey, and out of this survey they took these numbers down,

269
00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:00,000
and they went by popularity of what people order.

270
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:07,000
So, here we go. Number 10 is the waffle.

271
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:12,000
I thought the waffle was going to be a little bit further down on the list because, well, I mean, you know,

272
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:17,000
it seems like every place has a waffle, and that's one of their specialties,

273
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:22,000
whether they put strawberries over it or a cinnamon waffle or a French toast waffle or something.

274
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:26,000
It seems to be a gimmick that goes on at most of the diners that I know of.

275
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,000
They go in there and they go, hey, what's your specialty?

276
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:35,000
Oh, we got this waffle. It's a chocolate chip waffle with, I don't know, this crazy vanilla syrup or something.

277
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:40,000
You know, all of them seem to be proud of their waffle and how they make it and how it tastes.

278
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:44,000
So, I thought it would have been like, I don't know, maybe number one or two or something like that,

279
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:48,000
but this is number 10, which is still a great showing.

280
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:52,000
Just, I didn't expect it to be that far up, but you know what? What do I know?

281
00:33:52,000 --> 00:34:03,000
So, number nine, and I don't know if I really consider this a breakfast food or not, but, well, a Reuben.

282
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:09,000
A Reuben is number nine, and it's really hard to mess up a Reuben.

283
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:14,000
I mean, most places, you know what you're going to get with a Reuben, whether they, you know, go all out on it

284
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:17,000
and make it Irish style or something, that's different.

285
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:25,000
But most places, it's like corned beef, Thousand Island dressing, sauerkraut, rye bread, and there's no way to really screw that up.

286
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:29,000
Not every place you know of can make a pretty decent Reuben.

287
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:36,000
And so, I can see how come that registered high. I just question whether it's a breakfast food or not.

288
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:40,000
So anyhow, you make up your own choice. It doesn't matter. That's what people said.

289
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:45,000
So, number eight, hash browns.

290
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:48,000
Hash browns are probably the most iconic breakfast side.

291
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:54,000
I mean, they have American fries, you can even order regular fries.

292
00:34:54,000 --> 00:35:04,000
Even fried potatoes, if some place has served that, you know, with the chunks and, you know, the sliced potatoes and onions and all that stuff.

293
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:13,000
But hash browns, number eight, that's a good showing, but that is one of the ones that I thought would actually be down lower than that,

294
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,000
because it seems to me like everybody orders hash browns.

295
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:24,000
I mean, even if you go to McDonald's or Burger King, their version of the hash browns, hash rounds or whatever they call them, or, you know, so.

296
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:33,000
Number seven, and this surprises me because if they're going to go into something like this, why don't they go to coffee?

297
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:38,000
I guess this is more like food, though, a milkshake.

298
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:43,000
A milkshake, yeah, I see why people order it. I mean, they make them very good at a lot of places.

299
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:50,000
So, as a breakfast food, I don't know. I don't think I've ever had a milkshake for breakfast.

300
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:58,000
I've had a coffee milkshake for breakfast down at the City Market Diner where Topher and I do our NFL show at.

301
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,000
And they have a coffee shake that's out of this world.

302
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:05,000
I mean, you add a couple of shots of espresso to that and I mean, you know, you're good for all day.

303
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:11,000
You're like running hamster circles. It's yeah, it's good stuff.

304
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:18,000
So number seven is milkshake. Number six is a good old bacon cheeseburger.

305
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:23,000
I've ordered a bacon cheeseburger before for breakfast and that and I understand it.

306
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:27,000
Sometimes you don't feel like eggs. Sometimes you don't feel like ham or bacon.

307
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:33,000
You're like, you know what? I'm just going to go for it. I'm going to order a good old bacon cheeseburger.

308
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,000
And this again, I go back to it's really hard to screw up.

309
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:41,000
You're probably going to get one no matter where you go. And they're always good.

310
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:46,000
I mean, and you know, unless it comes out mooing or something, you're pretty happy with it usually.

311
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,000
Or, you know, at least going, yeah, it worked. It's good.

312
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:54,000
But it rarely do I ever hear anyone go, man, that bacon cheeseburger was trash, man.

313
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,000
Like garbage. You hardly ever hear that.

314
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:03,000
You might in a rare occasion, someone didn't know what they're doing or put the wrong condiment or whatever.

315
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:09,000
So but most of the times, whenever someone orders a bacon cheeseburger, they're pretty happy about that.

316
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:16,000
And they usually go the extreme, not the extreme, but the bacon double cheeseburger sounds even better, doesn't it?

317
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:25,000
So number five, and I can't believe this is a head of hash browns, but it's loaded fries.

318
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:33,000
Now, loaded fries are awesome, but I consider them again, more of a dinner lunch food, something like that instead of breakfast food.

319
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:40,000
I guess this varies. It probably depends on where you live in America, honestly.

320
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:54,000
You know, it's probably there's places not here in the Midwest, but there's probably a lot of places that they accept loaded fries as a dessert or not a dessert, but a breakfast.

321
00:37:54,000 --> 00:38:01,000
So, OK, I don't necessarily see eye to eye to that one. It's not that I don't love loaded fries.

322
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:06,000
Love putting chili and cheese on them, some chives. There's other stuff you can put on them, too.

323
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:13,000
That's very good. Sour cream, of course, cheese. But anyhow, that's cool.

324
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:18,000
Number four, I'm not a fan of this, never had been a fan of this. As a matter of fact, I think it's kind of nasty.

325
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:23,000
Val loves it. She's had him plenty of times when we order breakfast.

326
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:28,000
Eggs Benedict. Eggs Benedict to me. I don't know. I don't like it.

327
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:35,000
I don't like the gooey runny egg over everything that looks completely delicious.

328
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:40,000
I mean, you put this liquid chicken fetus all over your food.

329
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:47,000
I don't know. I don't like the gooeyness. I don't like the the feeling of it. I don't like the look of it.

330
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:53,000
Nothing gooey eggs. Easy eggs to me are trash. Someone gives them to me.

331
00:38:53,000 --> 00:39:01,000
They go right straight in the trash and I leave. So, yeah, I'm not an eggs Benedict fan, but if you are, God bless you.

332
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:07,000
Val loves them. So you know what? All right. Well, I mean, obviously a lot of people love them.

333
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:12,000
Number four on the list. Number three. Oh, yeah, I agree with this.

334
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:18,000
And this again goes to it's hard to screw up. So a lot of people probably love it.

335
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:22,000
This is eggs Benedict or not eggs Benedict. What the hell? I'm still asleep. I'm sorry.

336
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:26,000
I'm doing this in the morning as opposed to in the evening because of scheduling.

337
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:34,000
So number three is biscuits and gravy. It's hard to screw them up unless you make the gravy horrible or the biscuits stale.

338
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:38,000
I've had a stale biscuit before that I don't know got lost in the pile or something.

339
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:45,000
And then you put some gravy over and it's horrible. You know, I kind of like to leave the biscuit and eat the gravy or ask for another biscuit.

340
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:55,000
Or if it's one of those hotel situations with a free breakfast or something like that, you go up and you find the fresh batch of biscuits and you grab them there.

341
00:39:55,000 --> 00:40:02,000
You know, sometimes you just wait and see the lady bring them out and you're like, OK, I'm going to pick off a couple of them while they're still steaming hot.

342
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:09,000
So biscuits and gravy are awesome. And number three, deservingly.

343
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:16,000
Number two, I agree with this 100 percent. It'd be my number one because this is my staple must go to.

344
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:22,000
And I even go to the to the omelet bar and I'm talking about omelets omelet bar on cruise ship.

345
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:29,000
I wake up early enough to go take advantage of that. You go up there the first time and you go to the guy making omelets.

346
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:32,000
He's usually doing it all the whole cruise.

347
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:37,000
And I think they do this on purpose at continuity allows you to give them a tip.

348
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,000
So I go up there and I tell him exactly what I want.

349
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:49,000
And those guys are so good they remember it the next day when you come up there and they remember you split them a 20 and they have another line over there with nobody in it.

350
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:56,000
And they look over there, they look at you and they look over there, you walk over there and they slide you one while making the other omelets.

351
00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:02,000
So and they also remember how you like it. So omelets, I agree, 100 percent.

352
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:05,000
I like a little bit of everything on my own. And I think they're fantastic.

353
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:14,000
I mean, diced tomatoes, peppers, onions, some people like avocado cheese.

354
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:23,000
I mean, it's just fantastic stuff. Yep. All mixed up in some done eggs, not runny eggs.

355
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:27,000
And I think you got yourself a hell of a meal there for breakfast.

356
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:31,000
And number one, and this doesn't surprise me when I think about it.

357
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:35,000
I just didn't think about it when I was looking at this.

358
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:39,000
Number one is pancakes. And this goes back to like waffles.

359
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:46,000
Everybody has their own pancake that they like and everyone has their own pancake that's their specialty.

360
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:54,000
So if you go into Cafe A, they're like, yeah, we have chocolate chip pancakes and we have real maple syrup.

361
00:41:54,000 --> 00:42:01,000
You go into Cafe B, they go, yeah, we have chocolate vanilla pancakes with a raspberry syrup.

362
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:08,000
You know, they all have their own versions of whatever breakfast, breakfast cake, pancakes, whatever.

363
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:13,000
I mean, they throw their own little sizzle on it and that's good and people love it.

364
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:21,000
So I get why pancakes are the number one diner breakfast food in America.

365
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:26,000
So anyhow, that is the whole list. And I agree with it mostly.

366
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:31,000
I think some of it's kind of maybe I agree with everything on the top 10.

367
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,000
I think some of them could have been moved around a little bit.

368
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:37,000
I mean, this is just me, though, and this is just the Midwest.

369
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:44,000
I went to other parts of the country where like California, they like a bunch of fresh fruit with a little bit of everything else.

370
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,000
You come to the Midwest where we have a lot of beef and pork.

371
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:52,000
It's beef and pork with a little bit of fruit and cottage cheese and stuff like that.

372
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:56,000
So it just depends on where you're at, too. So that's the end of this list.

373
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,000
And that's the end of this list.

374
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:08,000
Kansas Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is beginning to own the records and accomplishments and he's going through them rather quickly.

375
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:14,000
He became the franchise leader in passing yards during the week one victory over the Baltimore Ravens.

376
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:17,000
And it appears to be the first of many to fall this season.

377
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:25,000
The Chiefs reigning Super Bowl MVP will only be making his 98th career start on Sunday with a win against Cincinnati.

378
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:33,000
Mahomes will tie Tom Brady and pro football Hall of Famer Roger Staubach with 76 career wins.

379
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:39,000
All three would be tied for the most wins by a quarterback in the first 100 career starts.

380
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:49,000
Mahomes is also likely to surpass Matthew Stafford for the most completions by a quarterback in his first 100 career starts with five.

381
00:43:49,000 --> 00:44:01,000
Three touchdown passes will put Mahomes on target to overtake Aaron Rodgers, 222 touchdown passes and for the most by a quarterback in the first 100 career starts.

382
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:06,000
That is really good company. And some that is insane.

383
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:10,000
I mean, how long has Roger been playing and how long has Mahomes been playing?

384
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:17,000
I mean, you look at that and analyze that from that alone and you're going to say, man, I mean, the guy has just been insane.

385
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:21,000
He's a generational talent. You don't get these guys all the time.

386
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:28,000
And it's going to be fun to see the bar he sets from here on out if you want to be the best.

387
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:33,000
I know quarterbacks are constantly getting better, stronger, bigger.

388
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:37,000
Let's see, more instinct maybe. You know, they're growing up in football.

389
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:40,000
They're growing up with the with the best equipment around.

390
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:45,000
I mean, hell, if you play football in Texas, you have what a lot of pro teams have.

391
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,000
You know, this is high school and then college.

392
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:51,000
If you play down there, you have the same equipment that the pros do.

393
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:55,000
And you have great coaches that want to be there that are great at coaching the team.

394
00:44:55,000 --> 00:45:02,000
So, I mean, it's progressed a lot, but I still can't fathom other quarterbacks just coming in and doing what he did,

395
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:06,000
even how much we progressed in the quarterback slot.

396
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:14,000
So, I mean, over the whole NFL, the whole body of work, it's going to be really cool to see how this all plays out when it's done.

397
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:23,000
I mean, I hope my home stays healthy so we can accomplish all these records and break them and go way past them.

398
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:27,000
So, I think he set a new standard every time he gets out on the field,

399
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:34,000
not just from his gimmick plays like the behind the back pass or his no look pass,

400
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:42,000
but also because of his accuracy, his smarts, his able to improvise, his ability to run,

401
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:48,000
his ability to scramble, his ability to take a hit, his ability to play hurt.

402
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:57,000
All of this is just insane when you look at his body of work and look at a compilation of everything that he's done.

403
00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:00,000
It's really impressive.

404
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:06,000
So, and while we're talking about football, the NFL fined the Chiefs $100,000

405
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:17,000
and tied in Peyton Hendershot $5,472 for a sideline shoving incident during the fourth quarter of the opening game victory over the Baltimore Ravens on September 5th.

406
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:29,000
Ravens linebacker, Ron Smith, made contact with Patrick Mahomes and appeared to shove him down after he ran out of bounds on a play early in the fourth quarter.

407
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:36,000
Hendershot, who was inactive for the game and not in uniform, came to Mahomes' defense and shoved Smith.

408
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:44,000
No flags were thrown. After the game, Smith accused Mahomes of flopping on the play to make it look like a shot.

409
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:51,000
And he took a shot at Henderson, who joined the Chiefs via trade with the Dallas Cowboys last month.

410
00:46:51,000 --> 00:47:01,000
Whoever 88 Hendershot is, I don't know who he is, but he better watch himself, Smith said. He did a little slick push. I'll see him when I see him.

411
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:14,000
According to Tom Policero of NFL.com, the NFL sent teams a reminder in a memo before the season prohibiting non-participating players from making unnecessary physical contact

412
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:23,000
with or taunting or direct an abusive language, threatening or insulting language or gestures to the opponents.

413
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:34,000
The officials or representatives of the league said this in a statement. Policero reported that Hendershot planned to appeal the fine, which I agree with.

414
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:39,000
Smith was one of the two Ravens who received fines for other incidents in the games.

415
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:46,000
Smith was fined $16,883 for a horse-collar tackle of running back Isaiah Pacheco.

416
00:47:46,000 --> 00:48:00,000
Smith was penalized on the play. Outside linebacker Adake Awaw, or away or whatever, however you spell it or pronounce it, was fined $20,050 for a fourth quarter tackle on Pacheco,

417
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:08,000
in which he appeared to hit the Chiefs running back on his side with the crown of his helmet.

418
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:12,000
Awaw was not penalized on the play.

419
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:26,000
So, you know, it kind of looks to me like this right here, and I don't think I'm just being a homer, but I don't know if there was a bounty on the Homes.

420
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:31,000
Let's just say there isn't because that's really dirty and that's highly illegal in the NFL.

421
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:41,000
Let's just say it kind of looked like maybe they're trying to hurt my Homes and some other people, some of our key players, to knock them out.

422
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:47,000
And that right there is not good. I mean, needless to say.

423
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:59,000
So, whenever you sit there and you see your quarterback get shoved to the ground after he's out of bounds and well out of bounds, it's going to piss you off.

424
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:06,000
It's just like if someone came up and slapped your mom. You would like jump up and start beating the hell out of whoever did that.

425
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:14,000
Same thing. These guys are close. This guy did something egregious and Hendershot took action and I commend him.

426
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:22,000
And I'll bet you anything, if he does lose the appeal, I'll bet you the Chiefs pay for it and say, hey, keep up the good work.

427
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:37,000
This is my thought. Not theirs. I didn't say anything like this because I think that this was fully warranted and probably undertone, you know, under breath sanctioned because this is the stuff you need to stop.

428
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:42,000
Because the thing you don't want to happen is you hurt our guy. Well, we're going to hurt your guy.

429
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:57,000
You know, Lamar Jackson, he runs up the middle a lot. It'd be very easy to take a shot at his knee or try to break his leg or something because he puts himself out there in the regular play to where it could happen very easily.

430
00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:08,000
To my knowledge, from what I've seen, we did not do that. But if you do something like that too much to our guy, it's natural for us to react and go, all right, we're going to give you a taste of your own medicine.

431
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:14,000
So you did this to our guy, Mahomes. So we're going to do this to your guys, Jackson.

432
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:23,000
So I think that maybe the Ravens better go back home and and they probably haven't thought about it.

433
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:28,000
Be classy. All that smack talk that they did after the game and all that.

434
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:37,000
And then before the game, I mean, you know what? If we see them in the playoffs again, every bet that's going to be in the locker room, the hit, the late hits on Mahomes, there's two late hits.

435
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:44,000
The first late hit was not called. And and I think that the refs knew that they blew it.

436
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:55,000
That's why they went ahead and let Spagnolo call a timeout is, you know, they talk about doing makeup plays whenever they know they missed something or called something that wasn't correct.

437
00:50:55,000 --> 00:51:00,000
I think this could be a makeup play very easily because they said they do exist.

438
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:07,000
And I think they realize like that one got away from him and they should have find the guy or not find the guy. Well, maybe find him too.

439
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:11,000
But they should have penalized the guy for a late hit. That should have been 15 yards.

440
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:16,000
The drive should have been kept alive. I mean, and I think it's pretty easy to see.

441
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:20,000
So we'll see what happens with this. I hope it just stops right there.

442
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:26,000
It gets crumpled up. And if we see them again, I hope both teams just kind of like, OK, that was then.

443
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:35,000
This is now. So we'll see what happens. And that's pretty much it on that.

444
00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:42,000
And we ever wonder where something came about? And have you ever looked at something and said, I wonder what the origin of that is?

445
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:50,000
Well, so have we. That's why we give you the origin of the origins of Benyay.

446
00:51:50,000 --> 00:52:01,000
Benyay's first maiden appearance in New Orleans in the seventeen hundreds when French Creole colonists settled the land, according to New Orleans dot com, also known as French Arcadians.

447
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:12,000
They moved to the bayou lands in Louisiana after they were forced from their homes in the Nova Scotia area by the British, reports Britannica.

448
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:18,000
Your mama's so fat, Dracula, bitter neck and got diabetes.

449
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:25,000
Our constant pursuit for a real knee slapper. It's strange insults from an alien. Real hilarity.

450
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:31,000
If you were a spice, you would be flour.

451
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:34,000
Next up, things overheard in hell.

452
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:39,000
This wallah has the top ten spots on Billboard Hot 100.

453
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:55,000
Somewhere in the heavens, your great Grammy Gertrude is crying because her little Bebo is listening to this film.

454
00:52:55,000 --> 00:53:03,000
Hey, everybody. This part of the podcast has been recorded Sunday evening, actually night about 10 o'clock.

455
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:09,000
Most of the games have been completed. The Texans are leading Chicago right now in Sunday Night Football.

456
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:17,000
But what I'm getting ready to go into is a little bit of Jamar Chase and why he got that 15 yard penalty.

457
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:21,000
I hear a lot of outrage, a lot of people screaming bullshit and all that.

458
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:24,000
Well, here are my thoughts on it.

459
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:33,000
And if you have any different thoughts on it, you're welcome to email me. That'd be douche B66 at Yahoo dot com.

460
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:36,000
It's still screwed up, but I'm getting some emails.

461
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:40,000
So hopefully, you know, I can get yours if you have an opinion on it.

462
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:49,000
But I'll put it like this. All the whole game, Jamar Chase was ragging on him, ragging on him and ragging on him.

463
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:54,000
To me, it looked like the official was fed up and he took a little too far.

464
00:53:54,000 --> 00:54:04,000
I think he threw like maybe a couple of explicit explicit words, maybe aimed at family members or something.

465
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:13,000
You know, he said something that was just completely over the top after he'd been yakking on the official all day.

466
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:22,000
So the official was simply he was tired of hearing it and he said that one magical thing that pissed him off so bad that he threw the flag.

467
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:30,000
And it is also Jamar Chase's responsibility to not do that and to not affect the game.

468
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:37,000
That right there is a sign of not not having enough discipline, not having enough discipline.

469
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:39,000
You're not going to have a very good team.

470
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:44,000
So now this team is 0 and 2. You see where I'm going with this?

471
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:50,000
So a championship team doesn't do this. They don't find ways to blame someone else.

472
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:58,000
When San Francisco lost in the Super Bowl, they didn't start whining and saying, well, as the officials are nothing like that.

473
00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:05,000
They they took their cleats and they went home, said, all right, man, I guess we're going to try it again next year.

474
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:10,000
So I mean, that's pretty much long and the short of it.

475
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:18,000
Jamar Chase deserved what he got. And if he doesn't want to get that again, he needs to quite simply just shut his mouth.

476
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:26,000
On another note, little skipper bailus probably over there waving his tiny little fists in the air, still bitching.

477
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:30,000
That is a golden boy.

478
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:35,000
Lost again to the Chiefs. We kept hearing stuff like bro head and they have our number and all that.

479
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:39,000
Well, this looks to me like three in a row. The Chiefs have won.

480
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:46,000
So maybe some of that talk is going to stop now. Jamar Chase, he needs to get his emotions out of it.

481
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:50,000
He hates the Chiefs because quite simply, we beat their ass enough times.

482
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:53,000
I mean, they got us a few times, too. Don't get me wrong.

483
00:55:53,000 --> 00:56:01,000
But I'm telling you, we're under their skin and that is showing with their actions.

484
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:06,000
I mean, even Burrow slammed his helmet down and was pissed off and screaming.

485
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:13,000
So, you know, and then another thing, little skippy bailus is probably pissed off about is Dallas Cowboys.

486
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:18,000
They look like shit again. They're horrible. They're a horrible team.

487
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:25,000
They are one of the worst managed teams. Jerry Jones needs to let it go.

488
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:33,000
He needs to stop. He needs to give it to a real general manager and let them have the reins.

489
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:36,000
And he needs to go sit down and just watch the game.

490
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:41,000
You don't see Clark Hunt doing any of this shit. Clark Hunt found the people that he wants running it.

491
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:44,000
He wants Andy Reid to control everything on the field.

492
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:55,000
And he wants Brett Veatch to control everything business wise, including drafting.

493
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:59,000
So it's a perfect scenario for them. And it's working.

494
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:05,000
So Jerry Jones needs to just find that guy, that guy that he believes in and say, all right,

495
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:11,000
this is my guy that's going to take us into the next winning generation of this team.

496
00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:20,000
So I think you're going to continue to see the downward spiral of the Cowboys because of this.

497
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:26,000
And how about the Arizona Cardinals? Marvin Harrison Jr. is looking a lot like his old man.

498
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:34,000
He suddenly made Kyler Murray a viable threat. They won 41 to 10, I believe.

499
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:38,000
Their defense looked great. They got all over Matthew Stafford.

500
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:43,000
And the Rams went down in a heap of smoking shit.

501
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:48,000
So the good news is for the Rams, it's early in the season.

502
00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:53,000
The bad news is they lost Arizona. The good news is it's early in the season.

503
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:59,000
And they could get this thing turned around. The bad news is you lost to Arizona.

504
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:07,000
The good news is that they have a lot of time to try to change their game plan and try to protect Stafford.

505
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:15,000
So anyhow, but then again, I go to the bad news is you lost to Arizona.

506
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:21,000
That's going to be hard to swallow. So anyhow, I think down there in Jacksonville,

507
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:24,000
it's self to say that Doug Peterson watches on.

508
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:28,000
He could possibly be the first head coach let go this year.

509
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:34,000
Not looking good for him. You know, he had everything that he thought he needed to win.

510
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:42,000
Trevor Lawrence and a solid defense and some receivers, some blockers.

511
00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:47,000
It was looking pretty promising. But not now.

512
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:53,000
Falling flat on their face to the Browns at home. Not good. Not good.

513
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:59,000
Doug Peterson watches officially on. And how about the Baltimore Ravens?

514
00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:06,000
Those guys were such braggadocious. Just thought they left Arrowhead like they wanted.

515
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:12,000
They're over there pounding their chest, bitching, griping, moaning.

516
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:19,000
You think they've been so mad that they would have just came over there and beat the shit out of the Raiders.

517
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:23,000
It didn't happen. The Raiders beat the shit out of them.

518
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:27,000
I'm questioning their team and their toughness.

519
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:33,000
I'm starting to think that it doesn't matter. You can have Travis Henry all you want.

520
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:40,000
You can have Lamar Jackson all you want. It's not getting it done. They're one and one now.

521
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:46,000
They think they have these big playoffs aspirations. They probably are going to be in the playoffs.

522
00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:48,000
But I don't think they're going to be the number one seed.

523
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:51,000
I see a lot of holes in their game. They don't look so good.

524
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:58,000
So, you know, instead of blaming the Chiefs, maybe they need to look in the mirror.

525
00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:04,000
There have been some other ones too. The Broncos fell flat on their face. They only scored like six points.

526
01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:08,000
I mean, there has been some surprises and some not so surprises.

527
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:17,000
The Chiefs being 2-0 is kind of surprising to me because those two caliber teams that came into Arrowhead

528
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:25,000
seemed to me like there is absolutely no Super Bowl hangover like there was last year either.

529
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:31,000
Neither, well, they did lose to the Lions and they may have had a little bit of a Super Bowl hangover,

530
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:33,000
but they got rid of it pretty quickly.

531
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:37,000
And last season there was times when we did not look very good,

532
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:42,000
but somehow when we hit that playoff run, we just revved it up and did it.

533
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:46,000
So this year around looks different. It looks like the Chiefs are hungry again

534
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:50,000
and they're tired of people mouthing and lipping off about them and they're going to prove them wrong.

535
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:55,000
They want to get to three peats so they can wave their finger, give everybody a double barrel.

536
01:00:55,000 --> 01:01:03,000
And I hope that's exactly what happens because these teams need to get better than motherfucking everybody else.

537
01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:10,000
So anyhow, that's kind of all the wrap up I want to give about the NFL

538
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:15,000
because Topher and I will discuss this further on our next podcast.

539
01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:19,000
Anyhow, everybody have a night. I think it's probably going to be the end of this podcast.

540
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:29,000
And then I'll piece it together with the other ones and you guys will get a fresh one here tonight or tomorrow or I don't know, someday here soon.

541
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:31,000
Over and out.

542
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:39,000
Oh, no, looks like the show's over kids. Mark has explosive diarrhea and can't afford a wireless mic.

543
01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:45,000
Fear not, assholes. They'll be back invading your ear holes soon.
