It is eight o'clock on the east coast that is five o'clock on the west coast.
It is the third of October in the year of our Lord, 2020-4.
Season 15, episode 13, 682 times.
You have been welcome to the clubhouse podcast, or one stop shop for all things, sports,
pop culture, entertainment, and pro wrestling.
This is our first episode exclusively at the Sunset Lounge DFW.
So if you're seeing me right now, thank you for being a part of this new venture that
we are a part of, we are very excited to be with Sunset Lounge DFW.
My name is Rob, I am the executive producer of the clubhouse podcast, and man, it's
going to be a busy October.
We're going to tell you all about it coming out, but I'm not, not well, because Lord knows
I say it all the time.
Nobody wants to solo adventure again, gets a little weird, he's like a, you reveal me like
it's going to get less weird.
No, it's going to be better because I have somebody to talk to, he is my co-host and a man
who was spared last night.
He's a beard.
You know, I, I still maintain it would have been funnier if you liked it, but you, we
don't force the issue.
When I, when I didn't get through to you, when I called you after the movie, I'm like
he doesn't want to hear what I'm about to say.
Honestly, I was already out cold, and you know me, I'm usually awake until three in
the morning, but last night was a special occasion.
So this weekend, Colleen, Texas, come join me.
I will be at Giganticon.
This is the third year for that show in Colleen.
It's going to be a great time.
I am hosting two Q and A's back to back right off the bat, a couple of great comic artists.
One of them all, man.
He did some of the lithographs.
And if you saw a picture, I put up a Giganticon.
I think it was two years ago.
It was a lot, it knows two years ago, where I put my DJ booth in front of this huge banner
that was a Voltron.
That's him.
Yes.
Oh, that was a really slick picture.
He did a Godzilla con this year that his toe and Godzilla's got the, got the
content went on.
Yeah.
And then I went on, yeah, that's what I meant.
Yeah.
One that's on the right of the picture.
And I will also be talking to three young ladies from Austin, Sanderson sisters, ATX.
They go around for a lot of shows, cost playing the Sanderson sisters, because this one's
very hocus-pocus-focused.
See what I did there, didn't even mean to.
Oh, that's good.
But they're great.
The cosplay is dead on.
I'm very much looking forward to talking to them.
And as normal, I will be hosting the adult cosplay on Saturday at five.
And we're doing a kid's cosplay parade Sunday night.
Also tomorrow night, if you are in the Colleen area, make sure to stop by Gambit Social
House, where the pre-party will be from 7 to 10.
Now I'll be providing the DJ thing.
Can I tell you about game at Social House House House?
I was having, I'm still trying to catch up to the fact that you didn't use the Gambit
voice.
I feel like everybody does that when they talk about it, but it's a very huge one.
They have acts throwing and all kinds of things.
My DJ booth will be between the pairs of acts throwing lanes, but the acts throwing
will not be open.
Let's be clear.
Oh, I was waiting to get in.
And your next crossover.
And then the Saturday night will be the after party where I will be hosting karaoke
from 6 to 7 to 11.
So I'm becoming kind of close to the ground.
So make sure you come out, come hang out.
I am very much looking forward to this weekend.
It's going to be a lot of fun.
There's something I'm trying to do here, and it's not given me the thing that I need.
There's too many things on my list here.
One of the things that this place has, that Gambit Social House has, is they have, is
scaperoms.
There are four scaperoms.
One is, oh, there's, did you like Donna?
Yes, I did.
I was very confused.
I didn't want to interrupt you, so I just took care of it.
One of them is Scooby-Doo of themed, and they have one that's bat-man-themed.
Interesting.
Very excited about this.
Have I told you how much I hate escape rooms?
I just don't know that you went in the, I don't, I enjoy escape rooms if I don't
like scarier scaperoms, but I like puzzles and clues and stuff like that.
Like, that's my thing, so I've, like, what were I went to, like, somebody's trying
to steal an item, and you have to get to the item before they can steal it, and it was
kind of fun, and then another one was like, you had to, you were a CSI team, and you were
proving the innocence of a guy, and that was a lot of fun.
No, I don't suffer people who don't think like me well, especially when there's a
ticking clock.
It just makes me at that much more aggravated.
Okay, so here, I got the list now.
There's one called Mayday, they also have darts and sports and stuff and food.
They, they're going to, it may not be open yet, but they will have a Star Trek themed escape
room, Scooby-Doo, Batman, Dark Knight, and Narco.
So, come on out this weekend, come hang out with me next Friday evening, though, big, big deal.
Once that lunch, DFW, we're going to have that on our social media here very soon.
Smokey Rose in Garland, very much looking forward to this from five to nine next Friday.
Sunset lunch, DFW, we'll be having a live Shabbang with all the hosts from all the shows,
so you can get to know us, and we can get to know each other, because we're all virtual.
So sometimes we don't have a lot of crossover, we're going to have a great time, come join
this if you can come out.
I know Don will not be there, Alex is checking his schedule.
I will be there.
So come on up, tell me your member of the Empire, and I'll shake your hand, not find
you.
And for those reaching out right now, we know, go ahead, Alex, you're good, we know there's
no chat room or anything, but we still appreciate you checking in.
Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, please do.
Let's see here.
Let us dive right.
All right, I know I'd be there, so I know, I know, all right, boys, let's dive right
and we've got a lot of RIPs this week.
This is not been a good week, you know, first and foremost, as we get into sports, decaying
with Tumbo at 58 was fighting brain cancer, I had no idea, I did not know as well.
And we go as we're going to baseball, Pete Rose at the age of 83, I mean, the guy, what
he, it's Pete Rose, like those two, like you don't have to tell stories because they
are who they are, but I, I would, I would like to take just a moment for that one
because Pete Rose had the ballpark cafe down where Rob and I are from, many, many times
had me and the family as guests got to see him do shows, he was always very kind, he
would love to hang around the batting cage in between sets on his show or different things
like that.
And got to see him as a child, got to see him as an adult, I'm not going to deny that it
was at Caesar's palace in Las Vegas, but having had multiple conversations at multiple
instances in life, the man always was villainized in a lot of different ways, but I
can tell you for those of us that got to talk to him, got to know him on a personal level,
he was never anything but an incredibly kind and hyper competitive guy.
And that's why for the longest time before the book came out, if anybody asked me based
on my history with PJ and Pete, no, I absolutely believe he bet on baseball, but you
know what he never did, bet against himself, I guarantee you that I will stake my soul.
I'm not going to debate that on it.
Guys of the role, he was not allowed to the Hall of Fame.
Do you think now that he passed, they'll put him in?
Honestly, if you know the story about the fact that he was, I guess I have to use the
term allegedly, even though it's kind of been proven, he was going to be reinstated not
long after his band by Bart Giamati, who then passed away from a heart attack before he
could.
And that just became the, I really don't want to use the term cross to bear, because that's
really out of place, but that just became the thing, yes, I think there will be something
for him in the Hall of Fame, but I think that they will do something more of certain members,
whether it be Eddie C. Scott, Joe Jackson, Pete Rose, and have a acknowledgment to player
service, section of the Hall of Fame versus truly being inducted because they can't be inducted
and experience it that for themselves at this point.
But it's, the man was a legend on every front Charlie Custle and I love the embracing
of certain aspects of that to the point where when sports betting was legalized in the
state of Ohio, not talking smack this point.
They did open a book in the Cincinnati Reds ballpark first and Pete placed the first
bet.
Well, and I played a little bit of little league as a kid, and of course I enjoy baseball,
but one of the things they tell you is like you don't have to slide head first into first
and Pete Rose just like no pound sand.
I'm sliding head first and the first piece, like, head first into everywhere.
Yeah.
There are, there is generations of mothers who are mad at Pete Rose because people like
me saw that and went, yep, doing that.
On to other headlines, shout out to Inter Miami, messy five, five goals and five games
they now have home field advantage throughout the MLS playoffs.
I, I, I, I appreciate that they have the pink jersey is, you know, Miami and the whole
thing.
I prefer the pink on black, yes, it just, it looked, that's more Miami to me.
Well, it, it suits because it's got the, the pop of color that the pink gives you,
but it's got that classiness that you would get from like, biscane or something along
those lines with the black outline.
So let's go.
Inter Miami.
Inter Miami FC Dallas fan both because I live here and I live to there.
Um, heard an interesting stat today that I think at least one person on this panel will
be intrigued by, okay, are you aware that in about three minutes, we will officially
have football for the next 55 days straight.
Let's go, you know, I really appreciate that, but the best reveal I saw may or may not have
used to say me, hey, Gar repeatedly, when they were talking about, but I was, I was telling
this to Sean yesterday and it was like, it was, it felt weird to say that out loud.
And then Sean, who is not partaking in football for the first time in years, literally
said, well, it's just Tuesday and Wednesday to account for it's probably college games,
nobody wants.
And I'm like, she's right.
No, football is football, football is life field, go, all right, let's get into college
football this past week, army with a big win over temple 42 to 14 Miami, squeaks one
by Virginia Tech.
I'm going to be keeping an eye on the University of Miami by the way, Florida was on the
buy, but I still took the buy minus seven, uh, Rutgers wins over Washington by a field
goal, Syracuse big over Holy Cross also 42 to 14, number 20 Kansas puts 42 on Oklahoma
state.
I'm still not, I'm still trying to get used to Indiana being ranked in football.
It's just not something that connects my body feels like it wraps around about every
12 years where Indiana starts putting a team together.
And then when they get into the big 10 games against, you know, the real heavy weights,
like Michigan or Penn State, or it's usually Michigan State to start where it's suddenly
like, oh, maybe not.
Or do you mean the conference that's about to merge with the SEC and just tell everybody
to go, pounds.
But Indiana does beat Maryland by two touchdowns.
Number 10, me, shit again, squeaks one out against the golden go first by a field goal.
Number 12 Ole Miss, why am I looking at these?
That was two weeks ago.
We're not a week six, are we?
Yeah, holy Mac, or yeah, we were in week five.
I don't know why I was, oh, it's because that was an earlier game.
That's why.
Yeah.
Well, plus you also have, remember, college is always one week above the NFL.
Yeah.
At this point.
It was Kentucky upset Ole Miss, but it was George, did they almost beat?
Correct.
S.E.
George is right in the end for a while.
Yeah.
Number 17, BYU beats Baylor.
South Florida just kids just take it to the wood shed by two line nine.
You and L.V.
Rent in football right now.
Well, they're undefeated, but that's not even the big story with that school.
I don't know if you've seen any of this with a slickering 14 over Fresno State go ahead.
So one of the things that people were concerned with has come to fruition, just not
at the school that people thought it would.
I am drawing a blank on his first name, but the starting quarterback for UNLV, whose last
name is sluka, was playing lights out through the first few weeks, decided that his
NIL deal wasn't up to the level that he was playing at and decided to just sit out
the rest of the season and said he would come back if the NIL deal was revisited and they
just said watch what's next.
Yeah.
100,000.
Who knows to UNLV for just saying, no, bro, and then it'll be the transfer portal.
A&M and Arkansas play in Arlington for the final time with A&M, that was a boring
game.
Holy.
A&M and it Arkansas, name me the last time either of those actually mattered Oklahoma
working their way towards the Red River rivalry, which is next weekend.
As they beat Auburn 27 to 21, number 11, USC by 17 over Badger Badger, Notre Dame back
on the right track, number 14 beats, number 22, Louisville by a touchdown Colorado wins
again at UCF, due to the tobacco road rivalry and beats North Carolina by a point, your
F at you owls all over the Wagner, I'm going to come on, I'm going to come on Wagner,
just because that's I like that pronunciation, 41 to 10 in that we had to get our, we had
to get our beat down in for the year because it ain't going to happen again.
Number two, Texas all over Mississippi state and also announcing that Quinnewer's will start
against Oklahoma over archmaning, I get it.
This is the game like these two teams, if they went one for this would be the one they
want, especially at this point in the game because Oklahoma state not really in the conversation
anymore, although I think that game should still be played.
Now, Texas A and M, that's also back on the table.
The SEC, even though we're not as much southeastern as we used to be, they're getting some
of the best rivalry games in the game, absolutely, this thing with the big 10 happens.
It's over.
Now, the quick asterisk we have with the archmaning versus Quinnewers, if you do not
know, even if archmaning played every game this year or it's entirety, he still would not
be draft eligible until after next year, not even next season, next year because of how
the rules are with three years removed from high school.
FIA beats a lot tech by a touchdown number 15 cleanse and all over Stanford.
Number 16 Iowa State blanks Houston Houston, North Texas boys sucks to have the under
in this game as they beat Tulsa 52 to 20.
Number 3 Ohio State beats up on Sparty, number 7 Penn State, over number 24 Illinois by
two touchdowns, Alabama, over Georgia and another game.
It really sucks to have the under in 41 34 is your final in that one.
Number 13 L.A. was awesome.
I don't care what anybody says.
That game was awesome.
Those two teams rise to each other every year.
Number 13 L.A. shoe beats up on South Alabama by seven touchdowns Florida State loses
big to SMU 42 to 16 tech with a three point win over Cincinnati, number 18 Utah upset
by the wild cats of Arizona by 13 and number six Oregon wins or third it is October.
So now we know it as Arizona.
The resume.
All right.
In the NFL, shout out the Jared got first of all.
Love the Unies Monday night.
Yes.
Right through helmets.
Right out tonight Atlanta wearing the red helmets with the one.
I don't know if you have this on the run for later.
Not the best lion's jersey of the week.
Don't, but it falls under music talk.
Oh, okay.
But Jared go ahead.
Please.
Yeah.
I didn't know if you wanted me to throw it in now or just.
Go ahead.
Later.
Go ahead.
A certain.
Non thick.
Non bright character found out he was going to be a grandfather where they custom lions
Jersey and an ultra sound.
So congratulations.
M&M and ALJ.
Oh, very nice.
But Jared golf goes perfect on Monday night 18 for 18.
You did that look on your face.
It catches the touchdown.
What?
What happened?
Okay.
Are you ahead of me?
We are disconnected.
We have a gap.
Okay.
Oh, I might be behind.
MCDC for doesn't realize it's a perfect game and does not give Jared golf.
A game ball in the locker room afterwards.
But, you know, first of all, Jared golf's not worried about stuff like that.
Number two, MCDC can do whatever you want and I'm here for it.
Elsewhere in the NFL this past week, last Thursday night, the giants were getting five and a half
and they got there by a half a point because they hung in with Dallas.
Dallas should have obliterated them and they only beat them by a lot.
But here's the other problem.
Here's how bad Dallas is.
Both of their touchdowns had to be basically enforced by the refs picking up flags.
And then another one had to stop a giant strife when they called face mask on the person
receiving the face mask on the giants.
And then we have all the rumblings of somebody knew that the spread was five and a half
because Brandon Aubrey came up and pushed his first field goal into years just to make sure it didn't clear.
Also for the record, I had the cowboys at four and a half so I don't care.
Atlanta was getting two and a half, but they actually went outright by two over New Orleans
in a very strange game.
The bears beat Chicago.
They beat Chicago.
Well, they do beat them in Chicago.
They beat the Rams 24 to 18 and they were getting three in that game.
Minnesota made sure that green bay doesn't cover because they actually win 31 to 29.
Don't what happened here.
Steelers this past week.
That was a joke.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's what we did.
Yeah.
We're on the road.
And then they lose about.
They always go like 2 and 0 3 and 0.
Then they start to choke.
That's the end of the year.
Denver.
This one was more injury based.
Yeah.
Denver covers our New York covers because Denver only beats them by point.
And they were getting eight of them.
Tampa Bay all over Philly 33 to 16.
Cincinnati giving four and a half, but they were okay because they beat Carolina by 10.
Houston Houston Houston.
How do you not blow that team out in Jacksonville.
Only win by four.
But a wins a win.
Commanders.
I believe I had that one.
I think we all did.
Woo 42 to 14 over Arizona San Francisco 30 to 13 over New England.
The rate is.
They beat Cleveland by four.
And he wants to go to the jet.
Well, yeah.
He saw what Aiden O'Connell and Gardner Minty were doing.
But the other one that's sneakily coming up is the Saints.
Well, I'm at one.
I've also heard tell of.
Maybe Baltimore getting involved in that bit.
And if they give him.
See, I had not heard that one, but that one makes a lot of sense.
That if and why this isn't what Devante Adams, right?
If that happens.
Just take all my predictions and throw them out the window.
Same.
Kansas City beats the charges by seven because it's almost time for charges to charge her.
Baltimore.
Wow.
What happened to Buffalo?
My defense was like, here's a gross thing for you.
Although I did win.
That was my biggest victory of the year so far.
I'm three and one right now.
But everywhere.
No.
They beat Buffalo.
They beat Buffalo by 25.
Tennessee over Miami.
We all knew that was going to happen.
But the thing with Baltimore is they have a great coaching staff that knows how to attack weaknesses.
And they knew that Buffalo had not fixed their second level with Matt Milano out for the season.
So they were like, you know what?
Let's run it.
We get past that defensive line and we're home.
And guess what?
It took one run from Derek entry to prove it.
Tonight currently Atlanta is on the board.
Baker may feel taking the field for the first time tonight.
Seven nothing.
Atlanta's giving them two and a half.
I will take.
I'll take Tampa Bay plus two and a half.
I just don't have any faith in the Falcons.
I just I haven't.
And I want.
Don't you want to take this one before me?
Or.
Yeah.
I can't take the Falcons either.
No way.
I'm.
I want to take Tampa Bay with you guys.
But there's just so many injuries that I've pushed this number there.
I will take it, Lana.
And they just in one player already across the 50.
We were overseas for the first time in the season.
Gentlemen, Sunday morning.
That is.
30 central.
Huh?
Do what?
I don't believe anything was.
So you said something.
I was talking on top of that.
I didn't hear what you said.
Oh, no, no.
That must have just been a blip.
I was agree with you that we were in London.
Eight thirty a.m.
Central time jets and the Vikings.
Minnesota is giving them two and a half.
Give me Minnesota all day.
Because if I'm not mistaken, didn't you pick up their defense this week?
Probably there the number one defense on the planet right now.
There's no.
And I'm so glad we don't have any chat box so that Mike can talk.
Grab right now.
This isn't even going to be close.
I, you know, I think it's going to be close, but this is going to be one of those
games because it's overseas.
It's that first one.
I feel like Minnesota's going to come out sluggish.
The jets are going to look like they might have a chance.
It's going to be seven to three going into half time with the jets in the lead.
And then it's going to wind up 17 to 10.
And Minnesota wins by a touchdown.
Don't what you're thinking.
Minnesota.
And remember, this is one of my favorite things of the year.
It's to happen this weekend.
What's that?
I get to see people in England wearing patriotic jerseys.
And it just makes them look big all.
Yes, we go to the actual early set on Sunday.
Carolina goes to soldier field.
Chicago's giving them four.
Give me Chicago.
Carolina's in shambles.
That's a tough one for me because Chicago's defense is good.
There's still nothing coming from that offense.
And four is a pretty big number.
Even against a team like Carolina.
Yeah, it might be seven to nothing.
I'm still going to take Chicago.
I don't like it.
But yeah.
Don't kick the bears.
All right.
Baltimore goes to Cincinnati.
Baltimore giving two and a half.
Some of these lines.
No, no, give me Baltimore.
It's not going to be close to enough.
I've seen this all week.
And I keep thinking it's a typo because it's supposed to be 12.
And a half.
And I still probably take Baltimore in that circumstance.
And they are feeding Derek Henry and this brings me joy.
Well, the only thing they were worried about is a backdoor cover because Baltimore
keeps getting in the lead and giving up points.
Don.
I got to take Baltimore.
There's a sweep on that one.
Yeah.
Miami goes to New England.
In the cure for insomnia.
Game of the week.
That was going to say the P-break ball.
New England's giving them a point.
Can I abstain?
This has to be just.
You know what I bet on this?
The under.
Give me the under.
I didn't get.
I still might take the under and that's because it's going to be, you know,
the Patriots 13 to four because it's going to be two safe.
These were the punter block or boxes of the gig.
You know, it give me Miami plus one.
Because Dell lose like three to two.
And then it'll be a push.
How about you, Don?
Get.
Bring some sand.
Miami wins.
I mean, Rob happy.
That's nice of you.
I'm still not taking my.
I often do not take my happiness.
They have not for years.
Like we know the dolphins only make you cry.
That is true.
I know make you happy for a little bit.
I now granted, always up for a beat for a win over New England.
Don't get me wrong.
Yeah.
But man, this is just this team has broken my heart this year.
And it's, and it's, and it's nobody's fault.
But uncontrollables.
Tell me this.
You know, it, it's really surprising to see how quickly everything
fell apart just without to a ease.
Cleveland goes to Washington, Washington, giving three and a half.
Can they keep this momentum?
I don't know.
I mean, it's possible.
But this do is, way too high of a level right now.
And it makes me nervous.
Well, let's use the transitive property here.
Washington beat the giants.
The giants beat the Browns by double digits.
The giants lost to the cowboys who also beat the Browns by double digits.
It tells me that Washington should win this by double digits.
Give me give me the commies.
I mean, I'm going to take them, but still don't.
Washington on this one.
Jacksonville still trying to get their first win of the year at home against
Indy.
And they're giving Indy to it.
The Dodd-Ford curse.
That's our name.
Yeah.
John.
John Madden.
Every kid like you.
I don't care.
They're giving 35.
I'd still take the jag wars.
They're going to have to win once.
Last year.
Are they now a bird and cat hybrid?
The jags fan base watched our prediction show and went.
No.
Well, no, because we gave him so much credit when he called the winning the division.
But he had them no further.
He's got two straight years with them in the Super Bowl absolute garbage of a dumpster.
Oh, hello.
Go.
They were for the almost made it.
They made the playoff state.
That was the worst.
You can hang grenades.
Don.
Buffalo goes to NRG stadium and getting.
They're giving Houston a point.
It is now a pickup, actually sir.
Let.
Let me.
Let me.
The Vegas line has moved to a pickup.
Tampa Bay now on the red zone.
Um.
I'm only taking Buffalo because I have their team.
They got exploited.
And you know what, Houston hasn't looked as great this year.
But I think they're going to be good enough to win by a point.
So I'll take Houston.
Don.
My Ohio stadium has to acknowledge.
That the autumn wind is a radar.
And they're giving Denver's three.
I mean, they're giving LA Las Vegas three.
Give me Denver.
This is going to be a comedy of ours.
They're starting to get the wheels on and.
Las Vegas is going the other way.
This.
This feels to me like one of those games that's going to get decided by Max Crosby.
There's going to be a bunch of people trying to.
This is what I call an emotion game.
The Raiders are going to try and prove that they don't need to volunteer.
Adams to win a division game.
And they're going to come out with the thunder.
Max Crosby is probably going to score a touchdown himself stripping.
Uh, Bonix.
I kind of think.
I almost said Oakland.
I kind of think Vegas pulls this one out.
Don.
Take the donkeys.
Levi Stadium in Santa Clara.
Hosts the Cardinals this weekend.
San Francisco's giving seven and a half.
This seems generous.
I will.
I'll honestly.
I mean, and I've got rock party.
But I'll take.
I'll take this Arizona plus seven and a half.
Yeah.
That.
Sorry, Don.
What was that?
I don't think Arizona to.
It.
It feels like it's too much.
We talked about it.
It's at seven and a half.
Right.
Yes.
Over.
It's that.
It's that.
Yeah.
Dreadful dreadful hook.
I will still take San Francisco because I feel like this is one of those ones where Arizona might try to push back.
And it's just going to blow up on them.
Packers go to so far to take on the Rams Green Bay is giving three.
I would take Green Bay minus three there.
Starting to fire on a few cylinders.
Rams still trying to figure it out.
But I think Green Bay wins this game.
Touchdown.
Buccaneers.
Yeah.
This one is the Packers actually having healthy people back.
And the Rams just keep getting more and more hurt.
Give me.
Green Bay.
What was that, Don?
Just keep.
Sweet.
Giant's go across the country to Seattle.
Seattle's giving them six and a half.
I don't think it's enough.
I think Green Bay will win by touch.
I mean, Seattle will win by touchdown.
The biggest note for this one is Malik neighbors in concussion protocol.
Brian Dable said that it does not look promising for him to play.
I don't know.
I don't know.
With out Malik neighbors, this is a toothless team.
And might lose by double digits.
I will take Seattle at home.
Don't much.
Got.
Yeah.
Sunday night football this week.
I can.
Acupuncture.
I know you're watching.
You are texting me.
What time is it in London for you right now?
Does everyone say like that from London?
He's going to try and get picture.
But I don't know.
He's at the.
He's there for the game.
Oh, I know.
I took that from that.
Yeah.
So he's going.
He's going to try and get pictures of people wearing Patriot's jersey.
Just for you.
Hashtag one.
A sure any stadium hosts the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night football.
I'll be a beautiful night up there in Pittsburgh.
Pittsburgh's giving two and a half.
You know what?
Don give me your Steelers.
I got to take him on this one.
I think there's a lot of injured.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's a lot of injuries for Dallas.
And with Brandon Aubrey being pretty much their only weapon right now outside of CD lamb.
A sentient field is really hard to kick in.
So I feel like there's a chance that that might be in his head.
I can't believe I'm going to take the Steelers over the Cowboys.
But here we are.
It's a sweep Monday night football.
The Saints go to arrowhead chiefs giving them five and a half.
I don't know how I feel about this.
The chiefs haven't really been blowing a lot of people out per se.
They haven't showed the dominance.
I'm still sticking by your this champs until somebody tells you otherwise.
But I think this is going to be closer than a lot of people give me saints plus five and a half.
This feels like one where that is an inflated line.
It's it's I keep having I have Rob's voice in my head saying you're the champs until somebody else tells you otherwise.
I feel like I have to take the chiefs because the Saints after two really good weeks against sub-part teams in Carolina and Dallas.
I haven't really seen anything from them in Kansas City is a great team even while missing players.
I'll I'll say they went by a touchdown.
Dawn.
Saints.
We will do the abbreviated version of North America's favorite game show because the playoffs are on and Atlanta is out.
What is the final run differential for the rain champion Chicago white socks.
Alex.
So it was weird with them winning a game by seven last week to actually bring their run total down.
I don't know that they won any more games after that.
So.
I'm going to go with the three 15 minus three 15 for the year.
Dawn.
Last two times I said 320 and I was barely over.
I got to go with the 320 for the third time.
You're both over.
Oh, down.
It was three 18 last week.
I know.
Wait till you hear this.
Oh, no.
Chicago white socks finished the year 41 and 121.
Now I know what number I hope it is.
It's a 253 win percentage.
They finished 51 half games back in the future.
51 and a half.
They are down by over a third of their season.
23 and 58 at home.
18 and 63 on the road.
They went five and five in their last ten and one their last two.
They finished the year.
At a negative 306.
Oh, that was one of what I was hoping.
I was hoping that it was 305 just for us, Rob.
Real quick in our pick and league.
I am currently sitting third.
I am a third three games back a first place right now.
Nice.
So make sure you go to ESPN being on our our pick skin.
Pick them for that.
Let's get into TV talk.
And our RIP's and TV talk.
One of which John Amos was just announced.
But it was revealed that he passed away August the 21st.
Absolutely.
Yeah, absolute legend.
There was a.
I saw a picture from a restaurant who posted a restaurant piece to their their mentor.
Mr. McDowell.
Which, you know, he yes, good times.
Absolutely, but he will always be everything goes back to coming to America.
It always says.
Break dancing.
Here.
What?
Let's see when he meets the the king in the queen.
He goes, I'm so I feel like break dancing right now.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
But that that interplay between king, joffery, joffer.
And John Amos is Cleo, McDowell, where they're just like.
No, no, man, this is America.
This is my house and just that.
So well done.
Oh.
And also we've talked about it on this show before when I was in college.
I was a big days of our lives guy.
And a lot of cast members are coming back for this revival.
Apparently.
We lost Drake Drake Hodgeson at 70.
He was the second Roman then turned into John black.
He was the guy that they would come to deal with the.
The priest John black who would have to do the exorcism of Marlena and the whole thing.
But a lot of love shown for him passing with age of 70 this week, which, you know,
that doesn't help me not feeling old.
That that man was 70.
And he was Nana's longtime favorite.
So shout out to Nana.
But the thing about that is, is can you guess why he was Nana's favorite?
I cannot.
Before he was an actor, he was a baseball player.
He was at the Reds of the Yankees.
Sorry.
I'm getting them un-message right now.
Okay, but yeah, before he took up acting, he was in the organization for the Reds
and then eventually the Yankees, which had him in New York that kind of exposed him to
different things such as acting that became his life's work.
Okay.
Let's get into stuff.
Watch this week TV edition.
I actually forgot to set my DVR, so I'll see if I can watch it.
The one hour game show block on CW with Scrabble and Trivial Pursuit kicks off tonight.
Okay.
We got Scrabble with Raven Simone and Trivial Pursuit with Levar Burton.
So, always get Levar Burton in the past.
Yeah, interestingly enough, kind of teases with the other part of our show.
But I believe it falls under television.
I did watch the limited series Mr. McMahon.
What did you say?
It's required to reach out for me and I said, we haven't watched it yet.
And I talked to him last night and he was.
He was saying like we are much from it.
That is a fair statement.
I don't believe there was anything too truly learned about it.
But you can tell that they were definitely making a different kind of documentary.
And then in the last couple of episodes are like, okay, we're going to go ahead and
put up the year we were interviewing these people because otherwise it sounds really sketchy
to hear the Undertaker talk about Vince in certain ways that he does.
So it's the they definitely leaned hard after the fact into that because it's really
cool how they book in something with it and I'm not going to spoil it unless you want
to ask me off air.
Like something that they do to book in and it's only a limited series of six episodes
and they do go quickly.
But it's a real interesting look through those first few episodes.
And then that hard left turn happens.
And you're like, okay, I'm not learning anything from this, but it's noteworthy.
It's well done.
It's interesting for those that may not have known certain things.
But I know that the way that they close it out is definitely not going to help a certain
talent potentially return.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
But I've watched that.
I've watched my half hour or the first one is a limited time.
Anything.
If you want to talk about the new season of from is back on.
Okay.
But the people stuff in that town and at they go out at night.
There's zombies and stuff.
So start off the season start pretty well on this one.
And we'll talk about MGM plus here in just a minute.
Apple TV has renewed sugar for season two.
Hearing good things about that.
HBO Max has renewed industry for season four.
But they have canceled their reboot of pretty little liars after two seasons.
Okay.
I got to stop this this now.
It's doing the thing that I don't want to do.
There we go.
Stop it for real.
Let me just mute this because there's no reason for that to be happening.
We have your Hal Jordan for your lantern series.
I don't know how I feel about this, but I'm curious to hear yours.
Kyle Chandler, I'm interested.
I just need, I show me footage.
And then I can make a judgment.
I have a question for you.
Please, you, you are more first in green lantern than I ever will be.
And Kyle Chandler to me feels like a,
because we love Kyle Chandler.
He has been phenomenal in a billion different things.
So please do not take this as a knock.
But he feels like the kind of casting and something like this to be the straight
to other people being more interesting.
And that's kind of how Jordan too.
He's very, that's why I'm asking if that suits.
It does because Hal Jordan's not.
He's, I think the thing with Hal is he's not nearly as cool as he thinks he is.
And that's the thing about how.
But I like the casting, but I want to see, I've seen some people being considered
for John Stuart, which I'm, I really wish we had gotten this when we could have gotten
common to play him because I think that would have been awesome.
You have said that very long time.
And at one point.
At one point Romney Malco was going to play John Stuart, which I also would have been okay
with because remember he was MC Hammer.
Let's see here.
Have you, have you always heard of fast friends?
I have not.
HBO Max has green lit a trivia game show based on friends.
Which I need to make sure that they got my sister's audition tape.
And it will take place on sets recreated from the show.
Whitney Cummings will be your host.
There will be physical challenges of some form having to do with some of the sets on the show.
So we're going to see how that all works out.
It's called fast friends.
I believe it will debut in the spring.
Who will have better just be called leather pants?
There's something wrong with that.
Who who has canceled unpriced after two seasons.
And it was announced this week that Hoda Kotby would be leaving the today show next year.
Don was there.
Hi, I'm inviting my tongue.
Today show.
Yeah, weren't you guys at the today show when you had your trip when you went to Niagara Falls and all that?
No, we didn't go to the today show.
Oh, but you were on the today show because remember they put the picture.
Oh, yeah, the cops, the monks, the Sunday, the Sunday mug shot.
I still contend.
And I've told this story on the show before, but it's been a minute.
How I found that out is still one of the weirdest things.
It is a Sunday morning.
I am taking my Sunday morning constitutional.
There is a transaction involved.
And out of the corner of my eye on my echo show.
I catch what a penis to be done in faith.
And the words mug shot.
So what do I do?
But I stay in the bathroom long enough for it to cycle back through.
And go, what in God's name is happening right now?
What did Dawn do at the Canadian border?
That has not only caused mug shots, but is now national news because it's on Amazon.
I'm texting hours going, I don't know what's happening right now.
What is this?
No, and we can't repeat my reply on air.
No heads up like, no, hey guys, we might be on the today show this weekend.
There might be a pictures.
No, no, no, no.
Oh, but he did learn his lesson by telling us for three months that he might be on
welcome to Rex.
Yeah.
Fine.
I will say this.
The upcoming word that mug is going somewhere else.
We're going to submit.
All right.
There are enough.
MGM plug and plug run earlier.
You don't know on the Sunday today show.
People submit shots of the Sunday today muggy buy.
It's a big yellow mug and then people take the mugs, shots of them in front of
like the Apple tower and stuff like that may post them every Sunday.
They put seven shots on.
And so we made a choice so far.
A field gold Tampa Bay.
MGM plus has renewed Billy the kid for a third and final season.
What's a final season?
Yep.
Yeah.
It's good.
It's good.
That clerk is doing an anime series for a splinter cell called Death Watch.
And Sam Fisher will be voiced by one leave Shriver.
Because I saw this.
You can do it.
I'm a big fan.
They are working on a series based on the novel east of even with the Florence pew.
So much to see where this goes.
Prime video was working on a Robo cop series.
So get ready for that.
The Roku channel.
This is a big news.
And I'm surprised this isn't on max.
So there's got to be some kind of rights problems.
The Roku channel is now streaming all seasons of an HBO series from the 80s called Dream on,
which I love.
Oh, really?
Uh-huh.
Why is this not a matter?
Because this was like this old HBO for most of the 80s.
Yeah.
I think that there's a distinct dream like you said.
Yeah.
Dream on was a show about a guy who was just kind of navigating life.
But all of his thought processes like his reaction to stuff in his head are clips for movies and TV shows.
I love it.
This shows great.
Go ahead, Alex.
Yeah.
I think you're 100% right that there is a rights issue.
This feels like one of those ones.
They HBO wasn't quite sure what they were doing in the TV scope.
So they were just like, yeah, you can on the rights to it.
It's fine.
We're just going to do what we do.
It's.
And show time announces that season three of Yellow Jackets.
Hillary Swank is joining the cast.
Season one.
I believe it's going to be on Netflix this month.
I think it's on.
It's been on for a while.
This is a group of girls that were high school friends and secrets and lies and things.
Oh, yeah, we did watch that.
They were stuck or abandoned in the plane crash.
Okay.
He was on.
It was on prime video because it was part of the show time connection.
Yeah.
But it's.
I think he's going to be available now on Netflix.
If you want to start watching that.
And I reason I know that is another YouTube channel.
I'm a big fan of shout out to flick connection.
That guy does a great job.
TV on DVD and blue ray this week.
Season one of arcane the League of Legends animated series.
It was on Netflix.
Season one of Castlevania and nocturn.
Available this week for you.
Season two of interview with the vampire.
Season 12 of Kirby or enthusiasm.
The final season in complete series for an NCIS Hawaii.
And the complete series of the series lost Vegas.
That had Jimmy Connor that I very much.
Both my wife and I very much enjoyed.
Movies are IPs because we've got to have.
Like I said, it's been a crazy week.
Chris Christopheerson passes away this past weekend at 88 John Ashton, which.
Just in the brand new Beverly Hills cop movie.
And judge Ryan Hall put a wonderful tribute up to him.
John Ashton at 76.
These are two big these are two big names.
Yeah.
Christopheerson hurts.
That that was a cool one because that dude.
You want to talk about genuine.
I spent a significant amount of time thinking the dude from the Big Lebowski was.
An offshoot of Chris Christopheerson.
I swear I thought that was true.
I've I've I've Wesley Snaps put up a very nice tribute to him as well.
He's like, I'm sorry.
It took me a couple of days.
I kind of had to put my words together.
And that was a wonderful wonderful tribute.
Great singer songwriter.
Great actor.
Yes.
He's the rubber duck.
Here is a song called Convoy.
I see that you will call.
They actually made into a movie for some.
He's in the 70s because that's what you did.
We got the great beat.
Convoy come through the night.
It's rocking through the night.
But thank you.
I've ever heard forever as close.
On.
My favorite my favorite quote for Chris Christopheerson.
Again, can't be said on the show.
All right.
Let's get into.
Stuff we watch this week.
Movie edition.
I got three.
One we're going to talk about here in a little while.
So last weekend, we can before last now.
I was in Charlotte North Carolina celebrating the 50th wedding anniversary of
on any aunt and uncle of mine.
Beautiful.
My mom got a beautiful verbo.
And it's a verbo.
It's not VRBO people.
Beautiful house on the lake.
But, you know, it's a three hour flight.
And I was like, you know what?
I could listen to music for three hours.
But let me just see what's on the American Airlines in flight.
And I saw this movie listed.
And I'm like, you know what?
It's actually a two hour flight.
It's a two hour movie.
Let me see what this bit is.
Boys.
I have finally paired witness to the movie.
Question mark.
Known as Madam Webb.
Oh.
Don, in his last couple of movie reviews,
talked about how he's making what he calls his maze runner guaranteed.
Of films that will be in his bottom 10.
Promise promise, maze runner promise.
It is going to take.
And I said, I texted these words to Mark Walters earlier tonight.
It is going to take an absolute cinematic abomination
to knock this film off of the pedestal as the worst film of 2024.
Because I went in like, it can't be this bad.
It cannot be as, oh my god, it is.
And the other one was you texted me something comparable.
And all I could think was, was that really this year?
It was February.
I've tried to remember.
You want to just drop down Disney?
It's on Netflix.
It's on Netflix.
I think Disney.
This is going to solve a thing for it.
Okay.
Oh, we need to make Donald watch this.
Okay.
I cannot in good consciousness.
In good conscience.
Now, if you want to, you've been warned.
I thought I was prepared for how bad this thing was.
I was not.
Put this way.
I'm going to have a long flight coming up.
So.
I need to have a new one for sea at your own risk.
It's all I'm saying.
Yeah. I also caught a documentary on Prime this week.
I guess it's part of a series that was done at some point.
But it's called Inside Story.
And it's all about the making of Caddy Jack.
Hmm.
And it was done probably five years ago.
And I think it's actually on the Cadillac Jack Blu-ray.
I'm pretty sure.
I very much enjoyed.
So there's definitely some interesting things that
shine the light and some more things on a movie that Alex and I saw together
night.
Seeing that beforehand kind of helped me.
Anything you boys want to talk about that is not a new release that
we're going to talk about later.
I can have the only new one.
The only thing I saw was the one we were talking about.
We'll get there.
Did you see the we're getting a biopic about sublime?
No.
Excuse me.
We are.
I thought you.
I had have your attention.
We have the casting.
You know how I feel about this.
I know.
I know.
And I'm telling you.
We have the casting of Bradley Noel.
And I'm on board.
Because this person is talented.
You're not.
When I say the name.
I'm going to need you to let it that it's simmer.
Because I thought.
I was like.
But the more I thought about it.
I'm like, you know what?
He can handle it.
Playing Bradley Noel in the sublime biopic will be one
in the sublime.
He played Richie on.
Why do I just lose the name of the show?
Archie.
I'm sorry.
He played Archie on on the CW show.
Riverdale.
Riverdale.
He also played.
He was a movie called I still believe.
Which was a biopic about Jeremy Camp.
I thought he did a great job in that.
The kids very talented.
I am going to wait and see.
But I feel good.
I don't.
I'm going to say I don't hate.
I don't hate the casting.
I understand you saying let it marinate.
I don't know how I feel about it.
But I appreciate them going with somebody who.
I don't want to say he's an unknown.
Because obviously we talked about Riverdale.
But he's not like a big.
He's not a marquee.
I was trying to think of somebody that I.
I didn't want to throw out somebody that makes it sound like I'm crapping on it.
But I was like, I'm glad you didn't say somebody like, oh, it's Chris Pratt.
It's like you get Garfield off this move.
No, I'm going to.
Like you said, I'm going to let it marinate.
So blind has a very near in dear.
Part of my life still is.
So I'm going to.
I'm going to pause.
I'm going to think about it.
If if Jacob and the family signed off on it.
That's all that matters to me.
Terrifying.
That's what I want to know.
All right.
Now we're getting terrifier for.
Because apparently that thing is picked up.
Steve.
Oh, yeah.
It's October.
Screen seven is set to release in February 27th of 2026.
She got that going for you.
Here's another biopic casting that I'm interested in.
John Boyega is going to play Otis Reading.
Hmm.
And it'll be about the 10 year relationship with his wife,
Zelma, who will be played by Danielle, deadwiler.
At one point there was a biopic that will Smith was attached to
in the 90s, which I would have been on board with.
But I think Boyega can do this.
I don't see any reason he couldn't.
I'm with you on that one.
I feel like.
Maybe not inspired casting but solid casting.
Don't thoughts.
Okay.
With it.
All right.
I think it's good casting for that role.
And now it's yesterday.
SNL01.
Mikey Day is working on a live action.
Rugrats movie.
I really thought you were going a different direction after the only thing we talked about
Mikey Day with.
And the headline.
I think it was Mikey Day.
And the headline I read was.
And this will be pure nightmare fuel.
Do you think you'll be dead film?
The Rugrats.
Do you think they could do that?
I never got into it.
I couldn't tell you.
I don't think so.
I really don't.
It was.
It was a product of its era.
It was an incredibly thin niche for children of a certain age.
This feels like something that they're going to try and throw together to try and capture
those people now having disposable income.
And it's going to.
The web the bed will go with.
Yeah, this is going to be a thing.
James Gunn has announced that he's working on a dynamic duo movie, but not
the two that you would think.
It's actually going to be Robin and Nightwing.
I did hear about this.
I'm injury.
You have my attention.
And I saved this one for last just for Dawn.
I want you at some point this week.
Yeah.
Apple TV plus or Vimeo.
There is a documentary.
That is debuted or it will be debuting.
I think it came out this week.

A Broadway show if you will.
And the title of this documentary is.
Alien on stage.
Your homework this out and report back.
Okay.

Movie new releases in places should get movie new releases this week.
We have a different man.
This has Sebastian's stand in it.
After undergoing facial reconstructive surgery.
Edward becomes a fixated on an actor in a stage production based on his former life.
This looks a little too weird for me.
It looks like definitely the art side of a 24.
I'm intrigued by it.
But it is definitely.
I'm stealing somebody else's line.
But I cannot remember from where.
So I do apologize.
But it's at the elephant man for a new generation.
We also have the outrun this week.
This is not about a weird tag team in a.
W after living life on the edge of London.
Rona attempts to come to terms with her troubled past hoping to heal.
She returns to the wild beauty of Scotland's work.

This has the swisher Ronin.
Hmm.
I did not get to check this one out.
But I am interested.
We also have monsters summer.
This isn't a film.
When a mysterious force begins to disrupt their big summer fun.
Noah and his friends team up with a retired police detective to embark on a monstrous adventure.
This adventure to save their island.
Mel Gibson's in this Lorraine Broncos in this Kevin James is in this Patrick Renna.
He killed me small.
He's in this.
We're going to see if there's anybody else I recognize.
Not so much.
We also have a movie called White Bird this week.
We can get.
Nope.
That's not what I want.
Oh stop giving me only stupid banner ads.
You're killing me small.
All right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You're going to do the thing.
You're going to try to get up on me.
That we can't have.
Deal with it.
White Bird struggling to fit in his new school after being expelled for his treatment of
Augie Pullman.
Julian is visited by his grandmother and transformed by the story of her attempts to escape Nazi occupied
France during World War II.
This is a pseudo sequel to the movie Wonder from a few years ago.
So there's.
Okay.
We have things will be different this week.
This is a horror film.
So you know, I'm out.
In order to escape police after a robbery to a strange siblings lay low in a farmhouse that hides
them away in a different time, they wrecked with a mysterious force that pushes their
familial bonds to unnatural breaking points.
That's just.
No.
Yes.
We have another horror because it is spooky season.
The forest hills haunted by nightmares.
Rico descends into madness in the Catskill Mountains.
This has Edward Furlong, Shelley Duval, D Wallace, Felicero's.
Jennifer Pearl is in this.
So that's good.
I mean, it's got some sort of horror movie veterans as a tour.
We also have it.
We call take cover this week.
This is an action film.
We have an Alice Eve sighting boys.
That's always a good thing.
A burned out professional sniper finds himself in an all glass penthouse by a lethal competitor
and must find a way to survive and escape with little to no cover between him and the killer.
Willem Dafoe is not in this.
I was going to say.
And the big release this week.
Joker, what are you?
I will say this.
I liked it better than the first one.
That's not saying much.
It is fact.
I think Dawn said it best in his review.
And yes, I just said those words.
That's our website.
Don't go.
If you've watched trailers, it's not.
It's not what the trailers make it out to be.
Not even.
It's not.
It's not what it is that musical.
There's no there's that that's been out there for months.
And it does have the Lady Gaga.
Who am a big fan of.
It's two hours and 15 minutes.
It's all I'm saying.
Go read the review.
Now I will not say this.
This will not make my bottom 10 of the year.
Because it's on my list now.
It is mathematically eliminated from bottom 10 status.
It's not going to be a great year.
So.
So what you're doing yourself a favor and go see wild robot.

Kind of kindness is the latest from the guy that did poor things.
So you got that going for you.
Uh, subservience.
This is a weird Megan Fox movie.
She's AI, but then becomes obsessed and things get weird.
No.
It feels very, no, I was reacting to something else.
It feels very much like if skin mx were still a thing.
That's where it would be.
Uh, the movie that that we talked about now twice in the last couple of months.
Uh, late night with a devil available to you this coming Tuesday with David Dismulsion.
Uh, let's see very much enjoyed that movie.
Meet Cap, which Alex has seen and spoke very high all over.
Fair this week.
I, there is no reason that movie should be as good as it is.
Do yourself a favor.
Uh, caveat Don, you'll hate it.
Uh, back head.
A boogey man movie basically.
Uh, red versus blue restoration.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
It's actually.
Uh, sleepy hollow is getting a 25th anniversary steel book.
This is the Tim Burton version.
Uh, and also a limited edition.
I like.
Yeah, also a limited edition steel book for Friday night lights.
No, go read the book.
Uh, a limited edition steel book double feature of get out and us.
No.
And the question would still book me or whatever.
It's that kind of it's, it's not a plastic case for the, it's the, with the, with the metal ones that you see out there.
A lot of times, I'll have limited edition art work.
Oh, let's go book.
And criteria and collection has two.
The film's produced by Val Looton called, I walked with a zombie and the 10th victim.
Couple of quick tech talk things.
Direct TV is acquiring dish and sling.
Hmm.
So be on the lookout for that if you still have those services.
Um, one of the things I've always took is we talk about a lot.
We see these one up arcades and all these things.
Yeah.
If it is one thing I am big fan, a big fan of.
Because the, uh, it is the light gun game.
Big fan.
I can carry gun.
I'm curious.
There is a company called Northwest Arcades that has basically done.
Not like the one up arcade cabinet, but just like the main piece of it that you can sit on a table.
You'll find it on YouTube.
It, bring your checkbook.
But it's like every light gun game ever from time crisis to duck hunt.
It's all over.
And he's not mad dog McCree on this thing.
And it looks fantastic.
Wow.
There's a flashback.
He shows it.
He shows it.
I mean, it looks fantastic.
I was not prepared for a mad dog McCree drop for the second time for me this week.
Dude.
I mean, if I had 1,400 bucks to burn, I would order one of these because they'll, they'll actually put whatever representation wrap on it for you.
It's like if you wanted lethal enforcers, they do that, which is another one of my favorites.
Oh, fan arcades does a similar thing if you're looking there a higher higher price.
Well, yeah.
So take a look at them out on YouTube.
Speaking of YouTube.
Oh, boy.
YouTube TV did a funny thing this week.
And then nobody's talking about it.
But it doesn't happen on everything.
I noticed this first on Monday when I was watching the season premiere of SNL.
I had it on my DVR.
And I went to go fast forward commercials.
And my little cursor on the status bar was a cowbell.
And then I watched other stuff.
And it didn't do us.
And that's interesting.
And then I watched NXT.
And as I went to go skip commercials on NXT, it was a little title belt.
So I will be bringing you reports and other shows that it does this with.
I'm a big fan.
And now this.
All right, boys.
Let's get into it the cheap pop cast.
We're going to talk about the week that was in our sports.
Known as professional wrestling.
Due to the hurricane and we hope everybody's doing well.
We talked about this last week briefly.
Make smart choices.
Stay safe.
TNA was having tapings that they've had to postpone.
So tonight's episode of impact will be a best of bound for glory.
So be aware of that.
And ring of honor didn't stream live tonight for some reason.
I know it's an hour 20.
So I know.
Zia Lee is now Lee Ying Lee.
So adjust your roster accordingly.
Wash a slam of it.
Pull the Bailey after they dropped the knockouts tag team title.
Lisa Edwards was running our mouth.
And wash a slam of it.
Just start talking English with a very American accent.
So there was that right.
They did have a Texas death match, which I would have booked differently.
Because with the Texas death match, you.
You get to pin and then it's last hand standing.
These two things happened like less than 60 seconds apart.
So there was no real build to it.
I've been holding the Bailey though with Masha.
Masha's saying she understood everything.
At least she'd been running her mouth about the whole time.
Because up until that moment, she only spoke Russian.
Okay.
Which now somebody else is.
And we'll talk about that here in a minute.
Watching wow.
We've now for the second time in the last two years.
Done a beast.
Who done it?
Angle with the beast.
I don't know what's going on there, but I do like the new set.
And MLW has announced their kings of the Kings of Coliseum will be in our fairburg
January 11th at the Nitex Sports Center in North Richland Hills.
Which as I've said, you walk in there and you can smell the hockey.
I still smell hay.
I know you do.
Get into WWE talk.
Very important anniversary to talk about boys.
We couldn't talk about it last week because we were intensive on something else.
It was seven years ago last week.
That somebody was listening to this show and we could prove it.
It showed up in my feet.
And I was like, oh, that was seven years ago.
That also tells us that I've been on the show for seven years now.
Well, probably closer to seven and a half because it was in the spring if I remember correctly.
So you're going to which I did.
I do still have fun today in my T-shirt archive.
I found my T-shirt from the Voldemort of Shows.
I do have a while.
Bad blood is this Saturday night.
I'll be watching it Monday because I'll be busy all weekend.
I mean, stuff will happen.
Now we're finding out the luch of brothers are not signed.
Well, they can't officially sign there.
They have agreed to terms.
But AEW adding injury time to Phoenix.
Right. Kind of put some monkey wrench.
We also found out that Indianapolis is not going to get the first two nights summer slam.
That will happen next year at MetLife Stadium August 2nd and 3rd.
So there's that still should be the rumble.
But that's just me.
We talked about using logic.
This is professional wrestling.
No, I'm using wrestling.
Roger.
Thanks for picking up what I put down.
Raw finally goes to two hours for a couple of months starting Monday.
I'm very excited about this.
But now we're talking about Smackdown going to three hours in January after the Netflix move.
There you go.
Because USA has quotas.
We want to send a couple of shoutouts.
Angela Dawkins and his wife Grace have welcomed their second child.
They daughter.
And Logan Paul and Nina Agna will also welcome the dollar a daughter.
You know, last couple of weeks.
Watching the Roman and Cody Georgia Tech welcome back to good cinematic segments.
That was fun to watch.
Yeah, especially the ending of you're in my way in life.
Just the way Roman delivers that line.
Like he is.
Leaps and bounds ahead of where anybody would have predicted he'd be.
Like he's so good.
And he's just great.
This is why he will wind up bigger than the rock.
If when he pulls the plug and goes to acting, I guarantee it.
And did they not delete old video graphics?
Because when daily came out Friday, it said damage control.
That's great.
I was like, did that just, did that just happen?
No, that just happened.
Fair enough of.
Ilya is now out with an ACL injury six to nine months.
But the dragon off, we want him to get better.
Xavier Woods getting a little salty, but now we're not sure who's going to do the heel turn.
Oh, I think we had some pretty clear evidence of that on Monday.
And we have a new IC champion.
I did not have that picked, especially this close to the plea.
You mean for him two weeks ago.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
I know.
It threw me off for a second because I was waiting to talk about like the new look of the title.
Making it look, and I always thought of it as the Jericho title because I always pictured him holding it more than anybody else with the blue on the gold.
Looks really good with us those gear.
Yeah.
I like it.
I like the, the new, so yeet, blah, gold on black.
Big fan of the way.
Give it to him.
You think?
Come again.
It was a mistake to put a belt on it.
You didn't see it.
No.
Not at all.
Okay.
Because that, that is the worst title.
And it pushes brawn breaker into the world title picture as it shows.
That's, that's the only good part about this.
I, I would have went with somebody else.
Jay, as enjoyable as a character as he is, it has steadily gotten worse in the ring for me and his matches aren't his fun.
So, you know what, if people, if you're trying to make the crowd happy, good for you, I'm not in it.
And XT news shout out, I didn't realize that Kelly Kincaid and Elton Prince were a thing.
I think I just learned that.
And they have a daughter now.
Poppy, Fay, Hally.
Oh.
Which I noted it out of British.
She's not going to be for a minute.
And about a month ago, she was on NXT.
That is something.
I'm, but something looks different.
And somebody online was like, I think she's pregnant.
And then there was a, they, they went to a wider shot.
And you could see that she was pregnant.
So shout out to those kids.
And Elton Prince's tag team partner got married.
And he married Stevie Turner.
Didn't know that was a thing.
Y'all, what that's in for a minute.
Brooks Jensen got married.
I'm still trying to read anyone.
Go ahead, which one's what?
Oh, that's why I don't remember who Stevie Turner is.
She's involved in the GM angle with Robert Stone.
Basic blonde lady.
I don't care.
And Tatum, actually in Hovery, El Bernard married.
There's a lot going on in NXT.
Just say, that was married.
I heard they were engaged.
They are married.
They're hitting the speed.
Okay.
Fast forward.
We are hearing that there will be a new set after this big body of the on that one.
No.
Rumors of a new set for NXT after this two week road trip.
As we know, they have rebranded.
We have new belts.
They're going to need to grow on me.
The world titles don't quite look right to me.
It's a little too.
NXT.
We know it's NXT.
I'm okay with it.
But that's because I've hated the color belts for the entire time.
Bring back the movie belt.
Oh.
Shocked that Julia did the job with the return of Core Jade.
Who's now color palette matches Roxanne Perez.
So get ready for that.
Are we about to do like an entire women's invasion angle?
Since we have Julia from Japan, we have Stephanie Vaker.
You do it from Mexico.
I way of Chile.
And then you have Delta coming in from overseas as well.
So we're about to have a try.
I used to it.
Nice subtlety with that sign as she was walking down that road with the 10 and 27,
which as we know October 27th is Halloween.
Have it.
And new world champion trick Williams wins that match.
I thought it was a good show.
I thought it could have been better, but it wasn't good show.
You're right.
I'm always good for any time to have Triple H and Sean on the ring at the same time.
Because you can you just see the genuine love those two have for each other and it just brings me joy.
I'm going to be interested to see how this week goes.
They'll be in St. Louis Randy Orton will be getting bouncy.
I guess.
No.
No.
He's going to be bouncing Giovanna.
Then surround the arena.
That's what it is.
And apparently you're going to get Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair will be an action.
So I'm here.
Well, my my thought process is based on something else that has happened.
Whether or not they're going to push that to NXT.
And I don't want to step on anything that you may have noted for later.
That's the last things that I have for WWE.
So go ahead.
Sky Pirates Challenging Bianca and Jade Cargill.
So I'm wondering if they're going to bump that to NXT to pop our rating.
Okay.
I'm here for it.
It's now a tieball game again.
Oh, barely.
A.W.
News.
Alex.
I'm going to go live to you because you are better versed in this big announcement than I am.
But I am intrigued.
So if you've been following us on social number one, thank you.
We love having you feel free to follow on all social medias for the cheap podcast or clubhouse show or the clubhouse podcast.
Take your pick.
Take all of them.
You may have everything.
You think there has been a long rumor of a new deal for AEW with Warner Brothers discovery.
That has now come to light and confirm the suspicions that we had to some level.
The new deal is multi year big big money.
Some of the things in it have alluded to the idea that Warner Brothers now owns part of all elite wrestling, which is grinding their interest in.
But you're too biggest notes from it are that dynamite remains on TBS Wednesday nights will be simultaneous on max.
But so will collision, which is remaining on TNT, but will be simultaneous on max.
I am curious to see if there is a bump in video quality because we've talked about that before just from a streaming standpoint.
But the other big news we have is that the bleacher report era ends with January possibly even sooner.
But the paper views will be on max now what they have said in the press release.
We were hoping for it to be an old school WWE network or peacock model where the paper views are included because we already pay for it.
We're going to have to take another look at it when we get to that point because what they have said is that for subscribers, it will be discounted rates for the paper views.
So I believe do we all have max done.
We have HBO max yeah.
Okay, so you have max do you have the full premiere or do you have the in the door?
Like the in premiere because we have a subscription with max itself HBO and max right they have different levels.
So if any of us don't have the premiere level or we know somebody that does I would be very curious to see if there's a different level of discount on the paper view, but that has not been revealed at this time.
If this is a fruition, do you think that it would go to they still do something like they even investors and stuff like that?
Yeah, because the paper views will still be available on direct even the things that it's ill.
I'm going to be I'm wondering too if they're what what the discount will be.
Yeah, but yeah, what I'm thinking of is all of the AEW programming will be available all the way back.
Which I like.
No, the thing I was curious about is say you don't have a subscription at $60 if you have the you know walking in the door level with max if it's 40 for us maybe it's 20 or whatever it's going to be I'm curious to see what that's going to be.
But all I can say is good I would love but we don't give the finger on this show, but I would really like to to the bleacher report era it sucked it sucked running it was awful.
Yeah, I'm glad y'all are dead.
That the if they give you like the catalog like you're saying when would come to the fact that the.
You want to watch a paper view from last year when you stuff to pay for or after certain.
The rollout begins January if it's if it's from last year you're talking about like it wouldn't will it become available for free.
Yeah, I don't know that they're going to they have not made any announcements about that model, but they have said beginning at least January 2025 moving forward for the paper.
So bleacher report may still retain the older ones allegedly mirror is asking for his release.
That has been confirmed, but they have not granted it at this point.
Well, they haven't used him forever.
That is also true. Well, there's there's been the other thing about the.
Disolution of his marriage and certain things not being.
Uh, it's tough to stay in shape and be excited when you're just sitting and catering and not getting to be happy so.
Also, allegedly injured Wardlow allegedly out with a knee injury.
We're hearing as well. Keep you up.
I also read earlier this week that we didn't see kill switch because double pneumonia.
He was found on responsive in his condo by his fiance.
He was putting off going when they finally got him to the emergency room.
They found pneumonia in both lungs. All reports are that he is now doing well that it is being taken care of and he will be.
Right once he gets out our best to him.
Congratulations to Leo Rush. He won the 2024 Rev Pro British Jacob.
So he's got that going for him now.
Does anybody have more motivation to perhaps see Happy Gilmore, too?
I know who this is targeting.
Because they don't think news.
One of his sons is better than you and you know it.
He's going to be in the happy Gilmore sequel.
That was announced this week.
So, and it's all they've they've they've they've been shooting now for about two weeks.
And I believe it's going to go straight to Netflix of.
Something I mentioned to Alex and he told me more about it.
Because I was like.
We had grand slam last week.
Is it the presentation for grandson normally a little more flashy.
And then Alex explained to me.
Hmm.
Please.
So, Don, did you notice anything about the house for grand slam?
I saw this.
Are you talking to the stage?
It was like.
And everything.
How it looked much smaller than it had.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Everything was shifted to one end of the arena to make it look more full.
So, everything was just cordoned off like for Happy Arena to fit people in.
Now, granted, they filled that half.
But that's why it looked like it was smaller because it was.
I was also impressed that they started with Nigel in Danielson.
Which was a good light.
Yeah.
Hook retires the FTW title, which I appreciated.
So, that would be don't worry about that anymore.
And then we had to check in with a little place.
I like to call.
The 305.
Because.
Nope.
I can't do this because I got hit.
We know that MVP is all elite.
And I was impressed that he wants to talk business.
This week, we felt last night.
We found out he really wants to talk business because Shelton Benjamin is now all elite.
And I am reading today that actually is not far behind.
Oh, yes.
And he gets to work with his sister again.
So, that'll be fun.
But.
You want to take this one, Rob?
I'll give it to you.
Go ahead.
Max Caster played his sister in a bit with WWE.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
But there is a lot of talk of that.
I'm wondering how much Lashley is going to.
What's the phrase you would use, Rob?
The thumb at the finger party.
Since he is going to look like a gargantuan human, but not as.
Let's say smooth technically with wrestling.
I'm hoping I'm wrong in that scope.
But it's always good to see a P show up on TV.
Plus, is Shelton Benjamin just the most underrated wrestler of all time, or is that just
for me?
Him and his former tag team partner who I have spoken to on a stage.
Yes, you have.
Moxley now has the number one contender ship.
I don't know how I feel about that.
But Danielson choking him out with the neck tie.
Really?
I like that.
I thought that was a good touch.
Because you did you see where he got the neck tie.
You got it from Justin Roberts, didn't he?
Exactly.
And apparently, Marina Schiffier only speaks Russian now.
I don't know.
Because you can't cut a promo in English.
So why not try something different?
Touchdown Buccaneers.
I also thought you're being shepherd.
Your main event last night was technically title for title.
But only having the continental championship on the line for the first 20 minutes in the match.
I was like, that's actually kind of a cool heel move.
I love that.
I love that idea.
Is that a rule of the continental championship that I don't know about?
But even if it is, it's just a heel move.
It's just a heel move.
It's just a heel move.
I love this.
I'm here for this.
Let's do this.
I dug it.
The only thing that could have made that better was put it in a match that doesn't get
a crap ending.
But you have, you know, continental international and another random title they'll use.
ROH TV title.
Each one of them has a 20 minute time limit.
But each title is on the line for a different segment of the 20 minutes and run up
Broadway with three feet.
Jamie Schiff.
Jamie Schiff.
Let's go.
But.
Hi.
Tell me this was not the dumbest ending because it's like, oh,
Brian Dane.
You'll send is the target of the BCC.
But O'Connor gets distracted.
But this is stupid.
Yeah.
And then we're going to have the tag match.
Hmm.
I don't know.
I like that they gave Wheeler you to something to do besides be to kid brother.
That's about it.
Anything else you boys want to talk about?
I think we're set.
