Published Nov 14, 2024, 5:34 PM

Shaquille O'Neal joins Dan and explains how he spent a million dollars in 30 minutes. He also says nobody could guard him in his prime, not even himself.

You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio. Final hour in this Thursday. Shack will join us. Coming up in about twenty minutes from now. Big night for the big Men.

You had Victor wembn Yama needing only twenty six minutes to go for fifty. Jiannis goes for fifty nine, and you had Karl Anthony Towns who went for forty six. First time in NBA history three players scored at least forty five points in a game. Guys over six feet nine inches doing that. By the way, So Janni's fifty nine. Lebron rolls with a triple double again, third in a row, Lakers pick up a win, and the Cavaliers improved to thirteen. In a football Coming up tonight, you got the Commanders getting three and a half against the Eagles. Good morning, those watching on Peacock, our streaming partner, download the app if you haven't done so, you can watch this program and our radio affiliates around the country. I have a poll question for the final hour of this program. Let's clean up our two see and then tell me what you're thinking for the final hour.

Yeah, we got up there right now. This is an interesting one for hour three though, Okay, the most sure thing future Victor Wembanyama, Jaden Daniels or Paul Skeen's right now. Jaden Daniels is in last place. Okay there, he's only got about ten percent of that vote. But Victor Wembanyama, he's got sixty two percent. He's running away with that, Yeah, running away with it. Paul has just submitted an interesting point. I want to be submitted physically slash visually the most recognizable person on the planet Shaquille O'Neill, Taylor Swift, others.

Neither Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Yeah, yeah, DJT. He might be one.

If you put up you know, like a bunch of eight year olds, fifty year old's, eighty year olds and held up a photo, picture or video, they know who that person is. Not likability, just recognizability. Check's gotta be top five.

Yeah, but you gave us three, right.

That's why I helped kind of populating the rest of the pole. I think Taylor Swift and Donald Trump are definitely there.

Oh yeah, let's say, well, who else would be on there? He's the most recognizable people. I mean, there's a lot of people that are super famous like, I bet yao mingos beyond there too, at.

Least to an entire country. He'd have a head start on everybody else. We'd have billions there. Yeah, he sure, well Lebron, I don't know if Lebron Tiger, you.

Know, we might if you change this to the most recognizable American on Earth.

Okay, so Donald Trump, Taylor Swift.

Kind of got the three big ones.

There is Lebron in their most recognizable Americans.

I have a hard time think and there's somebody in America that doesn't know who he is, just like, no, now what team he plays for? Nothing, they just know him.

Okay, but he's out of his uniform.

He's just in regular clothes, right, yes, okay, like Tiger, Well, Tiger is in regular clothes when he plays golf, Tom Brady, would he be there.

In our country, no doubt, not even worldwide? Not really, Oh no, not worldwide. I thought we're saying outside of America.

You No, we were talking about the United just people in the United States.

No, we said Americans recognized worldwide. Oh oh, because then Lionel Messi would be there. Chris John Ronaldo is probably the most famous person in the world, not even close. He's recognized on every single continent by a million times, right, So comparing Tom Brady to somebody like that, again, it's like uniquely American. Tom Brady is very famous to us, but even the own team that he bought ownership in, when he went to his first match, the crowd chanted.

Who are you?

Who are you?

Who in the hell? Oh are you?

They even their own fans had no idea who this rich guy from America was.

Mmm.

No, I'm not going to use that as a litmus test, that a chant at a soccer match that all of a sudden they may not even like him. I mean, you know, the Glazer family, they know who they are, and they probably act like they don't like them either, So I don't know if that's a true test they didn't know Tom.

Yeah, well, if we're talking about international fame, it seemed like an.

Apt Yeah, all right, so down. I mean, it's not the end of the world here. Guys are all charged up here just asking simple questions. Yes, Tod he's less.

In the news these days, but Tiger Woods I would kind of put towards.

The top people.

Yeah, he's done it on a world stage. Yeah, I don't know. Who else would be in there.

I mean Taylor Swift and Donald Trump would probably run away with it, and Lebron maybe yeah, and worldwide I guess with basketball how big it is. Certainly in China, I don't know if there's anybody. I mean, we might be missing somebody obvious.

Tom Cruise, yeah, yeah, even though he's not the biggest presence. As far as like physicality, I can't imagine you're not knowing him when you see his face and he's been famous, you got refamous a couple of years ago in Shaq.

You could probably just the enormity the size of Shack. Then people go, oh, that Shack. I mean yao ming as well, but he's not from the United States.

Yes, but I think it also might be a age thing either. My son really doesn't know who s shee quill O'Neil is because when he was playing, you know, my son wasn't born. So he knows Lebron, he knows Donald Trump, and he knows Taylor Swift because they're on TV all the time, just on commercials and things like that.

So Shack's in a lot of commercials too. But he didn't put up a triple double yesterday.

He did not, so Lebron didn't put up another triple double. A couple of phone calls in here Mike and Wisconsin. Hi, Mike went on your mind to.

Hey, Dan Fellas, thanks for having me as you know, I'm in Wisconsin and you guys were talking about coming to the area drafts for the draft. Well, I actually have kind of a special connection with Miller Lay that I can.

Help facilitate this idea, maybe set something up. But there's a place called Scannie the alehouse and eatery. I think you guys would love it, like forty fifty beers on tap. The food is awesome, chef is great. They have a private, really unique, cool patio area. If you're perfect for you guys to set up shop. So then the kicker Paul, you'll love this. The owner is actually a Bears fan.

Oh okay, that's precurear.

Well, we do need to have the proximity to Lambeau for the draft, and I don't want people just saying, hey, here's a restaurant or a bar to go to.

We need to be able to do it.

There's a lot of great bars there, but we need to have the bar people say hey, we would love to host you there, so I don't want it to be. Hey, let me give you a free commercial for some bar in Lambeau. Let's see Richie in Wisconsin. Hey, rich what's on your mind?

Dan?

I'm just I'm calling about the same thing in your previous caller actually just called about. But I'm just recommending the fact that the barcoll and Doozies and there's a bar called Stadium View.

And I know these because.

I used to play in a touring band and we used to go there, and I know that they facilitate bands like us and what we did, but they would also be able to hold you guys and what you do, and they can correspond with so many different things. Yeah, the food is great and the beer is good and the party is immense, But I mean Draft Day in Green Bay is going to be huge, and I know that the area will treat this just like it was a home game.

Oh, it'll be great there. But once again, you can make suggestions we need, like we've heard from universities cities for a trip in Iowa instead of You can recommend those things, but that doesn't mean anything. That doesn't help us if we're going to do two shows in the Lambeau area just because you say this is a great bar. It has to come from the people who own the bar if they want to host us. That's the point I want to get to. We appreciate the suggestions, but it doesn't really matter until we hear from people say, hey, got a great idea and we'd love to host you.

Jamie and Iowa. Hi, Jamie, what's on your mind.

More than dan and Danett's second time, long long time? I live in Iowa and I'm called to give you an invite host you. We got a mini man cave not up to your standards, but got a golf simulator, golden tea shuffle board. We can fire up the triggers, sip on some moonshine. We're about twenty minutes from the Field of Dreams. We could even tailgate there if.

You wanted to.

But you're more than welcome to come hang out and debuke Iowa.

All right, Well, I appreciate the offer there, Jamie. Yeah, once we get an idea of you know, can we do this in the springtime and you know, also do the draft as well. We're trying to figure out this schedule here, but thinking out loud of drafts at the draft and then trying to do a tour of Iowa where we do five different cities five days.

Josh and San Antonio, Hi Josh, what's on your mind?

Hey? Dan?

Third time, long time and before the prolific three point shooter Shock joins us.

I wanted to talk and I think because you've.

Talked about, you know, the pushback on the three point shooter and how the NBA has evolved, I think it'd be awesome to hear you speak with Kirk Goldsbury.

He's an author. He used to work for the Spurs.

He did he and analyze basically every shot in the NBA history and mapped it. This was kind of at the evolution of Steph Curry kind of changing the Spurs like beautiful game model to like the three point shooting model. And in the in his book, he suggests multiple things on how to fix the game or take it back to the execution type game. And some of those include allowing goaltending on three pointers, shrinking the key from the current width back down to maybe like six feet so that you can encourage post gameplay. And then my favorite is custom three point line. So if a team doesn't have a culture of being a really good three point shitter. They just don't have a three point line, or if you're a really good three point shitter, line a three point team like the Warriors were a couple of years ago. You push it back like three feet or four feet pass where it currently is to kind of favor your team.

Yeah.

I don't want to be too gimmicky here. I think you gotta be careful with that. It's like, you know, the field goals, when I said, what if you know, outside of forty yards goalposts come in, then fifty it goes in a little bit for you know, tighter, and you make degree of difficulty because these guys are making fifty yard field goals.

It's nothing anymore. Used to be it was a big deal. Now fifty is nothing.

And I mean, I kind of joke King mentioned that, and then I saw where Mike Florio mentioned it on Pro Football Talk, where hey, why don't we move the goldpost in make it a tighter target there. I don't know if the NFL would consider that. I don't know if I want them to. It's like I look at the kickoff and I go, do I really want this? Like there is the possibility of a return. And I do like that, but it it just feels still feels gimmicky.

Yeah.

See, if the game is going so well, why is there this constant need to keep fixing it.

I think the NFL was always tweaked.

Every time in the off season, they'll they'll at the competition Committee's going to look at that if it always feels like like they need to have something to have these committees where you're gonna go, what are we going to talk about? I don't know, how about we complete the process? Sure whatever that means. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't know. It always feels like they keep adding things.

There are some things that I get, like, Okay, when does a catch actually begin? And when not a total understand that you have to know when somebody caught the ball to understand if they lost it or not. But like, hey, what if we made field goals worth five points? If they went further than sixty yards? Would why?

What is that? Well? You want more offense? You know.

Keep in mind the ABA when they adopted the three point shot, they invented the three point shot, they were trying to get people to watch the game.

And now people are trying to what if we got rid of the three point line for a little while.

Wouldn't that be cool? It's too much of a good thing.

It is about a four point I don't even know if three and a half points for this, but if it's a good thing, I keep thinking that, do they raise the basket at some point? Do they widen the court at some point? Because they're probably I don't know if Shaq could be in the corner and shoot a three and not be out of bounds like his feet so there, his foot is sized twenty two. I don't know if there's enough room if he still in the corner. Now there's only one shock, but it's so tight on the corners. I wonder if they widen the court at some point, lengthened the court at some point, raised the basket at some point.

Yeah, Pauling, do you want to briefly play guest Victor Webbinyama.

Shoe size game? Sure? Why not?

It's always fun to play.

Todd, you got the first guess nineteen and a half? All right, seat No Connor.

Thirty seven and a half.

In Europe, it may have been like mar Marvin eighteen and a half. That's what I was going to go with I'll go eighteen.

Twenty and a half.

I'll go twenty and an and based off.

Our reporting, which means Google, only three players in NBA history had bigger.

Shoes Bobb Lanier Shock.

Yes, this guy we saw play in person in college and is I don't think in the NBA anymore. That's the hint we all saw playing. We all did in person in person. Tacko Fall, good day.

Day the day here comes that? What stat day? Taco Fall.

We were in Houston and when he came out is at Central Florida. When he came out, it was like, damn, that is different.

That is different.

He's taller than Victor wen Benyama. It's like the first time I saw Minut Bowl and he played against Patrick Ewing and it was a preseason game and Minuke came out and I swear to god, I thought it was somebody who had warm up pants on and they were on stilts. I'm like, gyle, that guy is wow, that's impressive on stilts And it's like that's minute Bowl seven to six. All right, Shaquille O'Neal will join us coming up next.

Are you still a Cowboy fan?

Of course I am, even all through all of this stuff, through all.

Of this stuff, I'm still a Cowboarders man.

I have faith faith in this season.

Well you know what, so how many games? I got that?

Seven?

So we went all seven? We got a chance for the playoffs.

Yeah, but you don't have dag, but we'll be fine.

So yes, I still have a fact. We're gonna win seven in a row. We're gonna make the playoffs, and we're gonna surprise some people.

Can you tell the story of when you spend a million dollars in thirty minutes? Can you tell my audience that story?

So I received the million dollars from a car deal and I always wanted a black on black Mercedes Benz. So I got the check and I looked at the check. Well, actually I don't even look at the check. I just took it to the bank, signed the papers like I didn't even know that the check said six fifty and all that. But we'll get back to here. So I go straight to the dealership. I haven't non negotiating skills. It's like, how much is this? Bence deals like one hundred and fifty thousands, So in my mind one million minus one fifty I'm still rich. I still got eight hundred. That's a letter. So I get this bench and I go home. I'm showing off to my day and my dad was like, man, I wish I had one of these, and I was like, you know what, come on?

So we jumped.

And I get the same exact bed. So now eight fifty minus one fifty. Man, I got what seven hundred thousand left? Right, I'm rich? So we come back and then my mom she says the same thing. So we get out of the little bed one hundred thousands. So now I got six hundred thousand luf. So now after I take her up, now I got to go get the jewelry and the rings. I buy about twenty draft suits. I read this high rise apartment on San Antonio for a year. I don't even know why I did it for a year. I wasn't even saying that, but you know, this is like seventy thousand a month. I just paid it all in the front. And then a couple of days later, the bank mind you called me and he pulled me in. He said, mister O'Neal, I don't want you to be like all these athletes and we get money, they go broke. And I was like yeah. So he showed me the bank statements. Time I saw a fiker and it just made me go back to the story, because you know how there's some bores stories out there of agents they steal money, and accounts steal money. But Fika had took so much money, and I looked at the bank and I was like, who the hell is fighting. He's like, mister, you need to educate yourself. And after that I was like, you know what I need to I need to slow down. But that's a true story.

What's the smallest car you've ever owned?

The smallest car own? I had to buy two Ferraris. One was wrecked, one was salvage. I had to buy a brand new one. I cut the brand and one and a half took a pie made a Ferrari to be out there online.

That's when you got too much money. When you buying two Ferraris and you're cutting, you're cutting them in a half.

Shaq, Yeah, you know, no, I think.

I think peop don't understand. What made me a really good basketball player is I tried to I tried to imagine myself as little. So when Magic Johnson came on the scene at six ' nine, I would already sixty nine sixteen. I would say to myself, well, I had Magic can be a guard. I could be a guard. So I used to always do things that the little guys did.

But if you were twenty years of age right now.

Oh, I had this conversation the other day, I would I would train my butt off, train my butt off, because the motivation is is really had. I would train my butt off and I would be sitting and be watching all the great players. I would love to have a little bit of Steph Curry in my game. I would love to have a little bit of Luca in my game. And I would love to have a little bit Shock in my game. And then the target is Luca's new contract. What I mean by that, Luca will probably be making eighty ninety million leuts. So now, if I can be that good, I can probably get sixty seventy. If I'm half as good as Luca, I get forty. If I'm half as good as that, I get twenty. But you know that would be my goal right now, because you know Luca's probably gonna be me by I said making eighty two hundred million dollars. I was nineteen twenty years old right now. That exactly what I'd be thinking. And I was steal everybody's moves, all the James Harden step back to when Vignando, I will steal everything.

What if we took away the three point line? Who would be the best team in the NBA if we took.

Away everyone line? That's a good question. I'm not sure, man. You just gave me a brain fight, right, I can't I can't even imagine the team that you grees.

I would love to see the NBA take away the three for a week and just see how teams play, because it's I mean, you've talked about it like Steph is so good that everybody wants to be Steph, but nobody can be Steph. And the basketball is not good right now, and I don't know how to fix it.

I know how to fix it. Bring back some creativity to the game. You know the reason why podcasts are obsessed are successful. Everybody has a different podcast. You see what I'm saying, Like your show is different from somebody else's show, different from Steven a, different from my show. That's why we're all successful. If you look at the NBA, every team is running the same play. Every team switches one through five. Every team is running the dribble handoff. Back in our day, you had plays you have to I saw. I don't understand why coaches don't look at their strengths. They say, Okay, this is the type of offense we go on. It's a copycat league, but you have to have the personnelity to be able to shoot fifty theories. I saw it the other day. I actually got to save to my home Portland went four for forty two for the three. If I was a fan, I would not want to watch that. So my point is, if you're going to shoot nine percent or whatever it is, why not what you even shoot threes? Like, you're definitely not going to win, and like as an owner, I'm trying to win. I don't want to pay guys thirty forty million dollars and we don't have a chance to win. So until they bring some creativity back in this, uh, this thing we know is the NBA, the viewership is going to continue to decline.

Why does the Joe Ellenbach situation bother you so much?

Because he has so much potential and I love all the big man As you can see from shooting over threes, the big man is you know, starting to slide away and enter into their atmosphere. But you got Victor Wimber out of seventy five shooting threes unless saying don't shoot the three. But that shouldn't be. That shouldn't be the majority of your game, majority of the beginnings. Tribute to dominate, get your teammates open, and then when the defenses start panicking and you know you can't really get a lot of room inside then step out to open him back up. So I just see a lot of you know, potential in him, and hopefully he gets upset with what I'm saying, and you know, he turns it up. But we as fans know what we see. We can look in the eye of a person and see if they want it. And something's going on with him. I don't know if he's hurt, if he's injured, but he didn't look like he wants to be it. When I look at Joker. When I look at Joker and how he plays, and this is why he's the best big man.

In the league, shuck, he's playing the best of his career. I mean that's saying a lot.

The Joker is balling nothing but respect man. I don't know if he got mad at me last year, but when Miran said that, I think Shaye deserves the MVP. But I actually hope he is mad because I love the way he's playing, Like he shoots the three and all that, but he mixes it up and you know, he plays in the way that you know, when he starts scoring and doing all that stuff, they start doubling and then he get Jamal Murray, my guy, Russell Westbrook is starting to pick it up, playing very well. I really liked how I didn't he was playing.

How would you have guarded you in your prime? You can't, But you couldn't have guarded you.

No, you can't, You really can't. So the only time I would slow down is when they initiated that new defense and you had to double on the triple team. But like when when I'm because one of them, always get to my spot and if that jump book is gone, I'm gonna get going. And then if you try to use your strength, that's when I went to my tai chi and did a little you know, like a lot of guys try to use strength, but when they initiated their strength, I will release my strength and just and just roll off. And that's how I was able to always get to my spot.

Was there a shorter guy, smaller guy who gave you?

Yeah? Oakley? Uh freaking uh Oakley uh My Horn Bonner, Mason Barkley at times like because they because they can get in your back, and if you hit in the back, it will help you unreleased core because like when I when I get to the post, I tightened up into the cores. But they were hitching your back and you have to go like that and then you know they was always able to move me.

But did they hurt you when there was hack a shack? I didn't. It didn't hurt.

No, because I, uh, I was always a football player. The reason why my Dallas Cowboys laying because when I was growing up, I used to tell people that add two tall Jones was my uncle and Franco Harris was my ufle. So I uh I liked I liked the initiating pain, and I like to see them paint.

Wait so you would boy people and say ed too, told Jones unrelated to him and related to Franco.

Yes, but why why Franco?

Because my father's last name was Harrison, So I was you were here this like your dad's last name is Harrison? Was that same thing? Same thing?

What's the coolest thing in your office?

In my office, all my Emmy's, well not Miami's, all Ernie's indies. I think we got like eight of nine of them.

Is that a ball behind you?

Let you see? No, I can't turn my head all I could chap. Oh yeah, that was uh yeah, Indians up there and I got a championship, championship trophies and MVP trophies.

There's a basketball right over your left shoulder, isn't there. Oh it's a helmet.

Yeah, it's a helmet.

What's the helmet from?

H old you man rebuck.

There's no way that helmet fits that helmet if you put it on, ain't coming home. Uh maybe you could buy the Cowboys one day.

No, I'm not that rich.

Oh you're getting there, I think I am. Are you a billionaire?

No, I don't don't know. I never checked.

I would check with Fika.

A little kid asked me the other day how doul be rich? And I asked her My definition of riches being able to buy my mother whatever she wants. My favorite person in the world, and I always see flashbacks of our life. The other day, I was in a Lawmark footing a promo and I saw a lady with a tall kid and three little girls. Now I'm following a lady and that's a lady shopping. She's getting stuff with the little babies right, and big guys just being a protect or whatever. So I go over. I said, how much is spending? She said, well, all I got. I was like here's five thousand. Give what you want. But my point is my mother is a favorite person. I've seen the women sacrifice so much. My mom, I'm sure with a lot of people's moms used to have used to have to wear the same pants Monday, Wednesday and Friday and just switch up the shirts. So I was becoming accessful. I always wanted to make sure she had whatever she wanted. Like my parents did get their own house until I got drafted, and I always wanted to ensure that they would keep that forever. So that's why I've always paid attention when it comes to the finance and all that stuff. But I don't really check on what I got what I have as long as my mother doesn't have to feel like she felt when when we were young. That's my definition of being rich.

Yeah, I don't.

I guess I'm rooting for Mike Tyson to win. But it's just because I can't root for Jake Paul. So I think I just don't want Mike embarrassed, that's all.

And there.

I think it's eight rounds and it's two minutes per round. That should be enough for Mike to keep his energy going. I think so. So it might be the old Mike Tyson of let's get this over quickly because he has to get it over quickly.

Yeah. I really want Mike Tyson to win. I really really do. But I'm starting to come around to the idea that I think he's going to get the crap kicked out of him.

Let's we'll do our picks tomorrow. You have to pick the winner and the round. Man, I know, I know, I just with your head or your heart? Well, I would whatever you bet with. I mean, the knuckleheads on a gambling podcast, they don't do with either.

Yeah, he's going to get the crap kicked out of him.

Probably just heard from Speaker Pat Grassley. Come out to the Capitol Building during the twenty twenty five legislative session, and you can broadcast a show from here. Be recognized in the Iowa House for all the entertainment you've given me in the in the combine over the years.

Oh, he drives a combine on the side. Okay, that's great, all right, Nothing more Iowa than a politician who has his own combine.

Thank you, Speaker. Does he drive the combine to.

The house though, checking the Iowa House well, thank you, thank you for the invitation, A lot of nice invitations. If we make this road trip to Iowa. Already, we have to write tomorrow's headline today. Okay, Todd, are you ready to write tomorrow's headline today?

For the Eagles and the Commanders?

I am, I have bald Eagles, wash wind begins rocky road for Philly.

Okay, seat O'Connor. Tomorrow's headline today.

Uh, commanders more like playing, more like privates. Gave it a lot of thought again, as much as I do every Monday.

You love this. Marvin Tomorrow's headline today, hurts so good. Eagles come out on top.

Oh, well, must have been really good, because that's what Paulie is reacting to.

Yes, mine is on a different team, but in a similar tone. Earth's so good, Zach Leans Commanders, Earth's so good? Okay, right, wow Karma.

Who sang that ton hurts so good?

I was John Mellencamp.

Yeah come, no, no, no, I just said sometimes.

So good.

Little all right.

So if I strike up a relationship with John Mellencamp I know him is John Cougar Mellencamp, then maybe I could get him to have you on stage with him. He does have some hits though. Man, he can he can write. He can write a song. Let me see, do I get a couple of phone calls in here? How about this day in sports history. Let's take care of that.

I'm just gonna do one.

And this is irony, irony, This is a lot of irony with the Bears history. At quarterback nineteen forty three, Sid Luckman of the Chicago Bears was the first NFL quarterback ever to throw for four hundred plus yards in the game, four thirty three and seven touchdowns against the New York Giants. That's still the greatest passing day in Chicago Bear's history, almost one hundred years ago.

Yeah, but that's the greatest day in the history of just about any other franchise that you throw for seven touchdowns. I mean, granted, that's a month's worth for Chicago Bear quarterbacks normally, but that's seven touchdowns. You'd be hard pressed to find any other franchise that would have numbers better than that. Jacob de Gram on this day won the cy Young. He had ten wins. That is the fewest wins by a cy Young winner a starter and a non strike shortened season. Get a couple of phone calls in here if we can, uh Spencer and Omaha high Spence.

What's on your mind?

What's going on?

Dan?

Second time? Six foot eight? I'm telling you to come to Omaha because we're right across the river from Iowa. There's a lot of stuff to do. Come during c WS.

No, No, No, it's a it's an Iowa trip. Okay, it's an Iowa. It's another state that starts with a vow and ends with a vowel.

It's Iowa. Seventy five percent vowels. Awesome, Yes, pony.

Once we get the council bluffs, we cannot cross the river.

No to go back?

No, I mean we can do it if you just want to say you went across the bridge there right, yes to.

So you're saying no, moha, what's going on? I'm saying, vote? Thank you? Uh Tyson in Colorado Springs, Hey Tyson.

Hey Dan, I was calling about most recognizable faces. I think you got to throw Mike Tyson in there.

I don't think so, not now, although coming back and people seeing him, yes, I guess.

But yeah, Pauline, most recognizable face in the world. We got a lot of write in votes for Dwayne the Rock Johnson recognizability.

Yeah right.

Uh uh Eric in Chicago, Hi Eric, Hi, Third time caller?

Uh.

First time was I gave you bar advice.

With you and Bibble were in Wrigley Field.

Uh.

Second one, my wife called in.

He can he hear me?

Yeah?

Yeah, yeah, oh yeah.

My second time, my wife called in and gave the Jim nance impersonation for Augusta and you.

Cut her off short, which we still laugh about.

Obama, he can.

Go into any gym anywhere.

He can have his eighties high tops, tidy whitish shorts and high tops. Everybody will know Obama.

Okay, don't know if he has to dress up in basketball clothes.

But don't ever sleep on barrio?

Todd?
