1:32
with the Stugats Podcast. Because
1:39
people need their football, Nate Tice
1:41
is going to join us
1:43
here in a segment executive produced
1:45
by Billy Gill. We're
1:47
going to play Naughty or
1:49
Tice with Nate Tice and
1:51
Billy Gill of God bless
1:53
football to get our draft
1:55
information. Billy is looking through
1:57
papers right now wondering what
1:59
is naughty or Tice. But you know,
2:01
though, one of those games you hear it,
2:03
you know, I think Billy just found out
2:05
that he's executive producing that segment. We'll get
2:08
to it in a moment. Also, I still
2:10
want to get to. WrestleMania
2:13
because we have not. And I
2:15
also want to get to. the
2:17
stuff happening with McAfee
2:19
and Shin and Sharp because
2:21
wrestling happened yesterday on
2:23
ESPN and if you're welcoming
2:25
in the age of
2:27
wrestlers and wrestling and it's
2:29
all content and it's
2:31
all drama what happened on
2:33
McAfee show is about
2:35
some inner office tensions there
2:38
that super interesting to
2:40
me watching the athletes come
2:42
and try and run off the
2:44
journalists like steven a smith isn't
2:46
gonna jay steven a smith might
2:48
be the coolest of us but
2:50
it's a new time and mackafee
2:52
and shannon sharper in the hundred
2:54
million dollar game before i'm gonna let
2:56
play out some of the shannon
2:58
sharp stuff because There's
3:00
time to know what's true or what's
3:02
not. I'm just going to address what
3:04
I saw happen this weekend, which was
3:06
strategic. Over the weekend, it leaks. Shannon
3:08
Sharp contract up worth a hundred million
3:10
dollars, whatever the numbers were. And I'm
3:12
like, why would that come out on
3:14
the weekend? Oh, because then
3:16
everything that comes after that can
3:18
be framed as money grab or whatever
3:20
it is that people do
3:22
when they're arguing about money and
3:25
now accusations of. rape
3:28
inside of a consensual relationship, the
3:31
money was leaked first. And
3:34
then you get what
3:36
you got yesterday from Shannon
3:38
Sharp, Busby's a
3:40
lawyer that does these
3:42
things, but I'm
3:45
not going to try
3:47
and talk about the particulars of who's
3:49
right, who's wrong. I just thought
3:51
it was interesting that purposely
3:54
Money is leaked on the weekend and
3:56
I'm like what why is this happening
3:58
now? What who's doing this and
4:00
why and then? What happens
4:02
the next day as you
4:04
find that McAfee and Shannon
4:06
Sharp and Stephen A Smith
4:08
are becoming a class of
4:11
Journalists celebrity Entertainer it's all
4:13
wrestling wrestling's going to Netflix
4:15
Tony Khan knows how to
4:17
sell stuff in the streaming
4:19
service ESPN's gonna get into
4:21
the wrestling fighting information
4:23
business, all of it mixed together,
4:26
what happened yesterday on ESPN is
4:28
something I've never seen watching
4:30
ESPN in my lifetime. Where
4:32
Pat McAfee, who's independent
4:35
as part of a wrestling
4:37
promotion where he stars because
4:39
he's a monster media talent, an
4:42
event that Mike Ryan goes with his buddies
4:44
to, and that Zaslow wants to
4:46
cover, McAfee, a
4:48
giant star, has a wrestling
4:50
superstar manager on, and that guy's
4:52
too hot for television. Like, what he's
4:54
doing cannot be controlled by Disney.
4:56
Wrestling has arrived to Disney, and it's
4:58
like, here's what it looks like.
5:00
We're in the middle of your game,
5:03
and we're gonna say McAfee's smoking
5:05
pot, and he's Mother Bleep and Stephen
5:07
A. Smith. Let's play that sound
5:09
so that people can hear as McAfee
5:11
gets sheepish, and they all do
5:13
wrestling on television in a way that's
5:15
great if you like drama and
5:17
entertainment and wrestling storyline. care
5:19
about the opinions of people who are irrelevant. You
5:21
don't care about the opinions of most people who
5:23
are very relevant in your life. You don't
5:25
care about the opinions of the people who pay
5:27
you. They sit there and they
5:30
go, hey, Mr. McAfee, don't talk about
5:32
Shannon Sharp on here today. And you go,
5:34
I talk about anything I want. I'm
5:36
Pat McAfee. Watch me swing my slung all
5:38
over the place. They go, McAfee, don't
5:40
talk about your podcast down here. What do
5:42
you do? I'm King
5:44
Slung. Watch me Pat
5:46
McAfee, right? Last
5:49
night when the roast was over
5:51
and you and I were out back
5:53
and you're going... By
5:55
the
5:58
way
6:00
it's Puff Puff Pass not Puff
6:02
Puff Puff Puff Puff Puff
6:04
Puff Chase down the gummy Puff
6:06
Puff Puff Puff Pass and
6:09
you go... You
6:12
know Steven even a Smith
6:14
really sucks, right? And
6:17
I go I love Steven a the
6:19
man calls me the goat the man
6:21
Steven a Smith is on the air
6:23
saying if there's one person in the
6:25
universe that I Steven a Smith at
6:27
70 billion dollars a year here want
6:29
to be it's the wise man Paul
6:31
Heyman and you sit there and
6:34
you go DZSBN bastards give me the
6:36
same money as him or they
6:38
can I've
6:43
loved professional wrestling all my life. I
6:46
mean that's not even like the clip
6:48
that went super viral for Paul Heyman
6:50
there where he's saying you look like
6:52
you're about to get deported to one of
6:54
the people and he's just going like
6:57
he's trying to get a new heel persona.
6:59
He's always kind of been heel -adjacent
7:01
but he's launching a more aggressive heel
7:03
character and he's using the Pat McAfee
7:05
show to do it by doing things
7:07
that are considered third railed. Did a
7:09
good enough job in protecting Pat. Pat
7:12
being like the traffic cop like, no,
7:14
you can't, you can't do that. And
7:16
so maybe he hears about it, maybe
7:18
he doesn't, but WWE and Pat McAfee
7:20
and ESPN clearly have a very good,
7:22
strong relationship. They find this mutually beneficial.
7:24
WWE produced an incredible event that Pat
7:26
had at the, at the penguins arena
7:29
that was all entirely a WWE production
7:31
that went on Hulu or that ESPN
7:33
use. So I think that that's, that's
7:35
actually pro wrestling happening on, on a
7:37
television show. I'm not reading too much
7:39
into it, even though it gets. People's
7:41
attention that's the most pro wrestling.
7:44
I think that's ever been
7:46
on ESPN television and it's
7:48
it's Not a coincidence that it comes
7:50
from that guy because that guy
7:52
Paul Hame is so embedded in
7:54
This is the gimmick and we're
7:56
if a camera is on or
7:58
if we're recording something then
8:01
I am in the gimmick and that
8:03
was what we saw, you know, it's
8:05
leading up to what he wanted to
8:08
take place and ended up taking place
8:10
last night, you know, and this is
8:12
a very bitter man and he's angry
8:14
and he brought that on television there
8:16
and he's old school pro wrestling where,
8:18
yeah, it doesn't matter that I'm
8:20
on your stage, this is me, this
8:22
is my character. Okay, but when you guys
8:24
talk about old school pro wrestling, I
8:26
don't know how the rest of the room
8:28
feels. I have not asked Billy Jessica Chris
8:31
Arroy, how they feel about
8:33
the grown man allegiances that
8:35
Zazz and Mike Ryan have
8:38
to the entertainment spectacle that
8:40
is WrestleMania and professional wrestling. I
8:42
love it. I mean, I see what you're trying to
8:44
do there. We're not the guys that fell for pro wrestling.
8:46
You are. You all thought that
8:49
Paul Heyman was doing something like
8:51
super dangerous. That was very controversial because
8:53
he just invoked some names. Like
8:55
that was that was pro wrestling. He brought up the lawsuit.
8:58
Yeah, that's pro wrestling. It's pro wrestling and
9:00
he got heat and he got his
9:02
bit over. He's one of the
9:04
greatest minds in the history of pro
9:06
wrestling in terms of getting things over.
9:08
So you think ESPN suits were watching
9:10
that and being like, awesome. I'm sure
9:12
there's a suit. I'm sure that maybe
9:14
it was at least communicated even before
9:16
or after, but this is a work.
9:19
Don't work yourself it. You know what a
9:22
work is. You know what that means.
9:24
I do, yes. And I would say that
9:26
Mike Ryan is applying some expertise here
9:28
that when egos get involved, Mike, like I
9:30
understand that you might cite it as
9:32
a work. McAfee would know it's
9:34
a work. Not everybody at
9:36
ESPN is in on that particular joke
9:39
and so we have learned on occasion when
9:41
we are doing the joke at the
9:43
expense of Dana White who might not have
9:45
the same sense of humor as we
9:47
have that sometimes what we think is a
9:49
work and know as a work and
9:51
the audience knows as a work is not
9:53
taken as a work by a Dana
9:56
White who might have a different view of
9:58
things. I totally understand.
10:00
And if someone on First Take feels some
10:02
way about it, it would be explained
10:04
to them the way that we explained our
10:07
bits to people that took offense, buster
10:09
only, not liking the looks like game. We've
10:11
had all these things happen. And we've
10:13
had to explain, this is the kind of
10:15
show that we do. I mean, to
10:17
hurt your feelings, we understand we're committed to
10:19
our show. And McAfee is very truly
10:21
committed to, I think the wrestling thing is
10:24
the thing that he enjoys the most. The
10:26
show, probably that afforded
10:28
him this opportunity to have
10:30
all these crazy doors open. But
10:32
the Pat McAfee that you get
10:35
on WWE seems genuinely like the happiest
10:37
to be there. I think that's
10:39
the most funny hat. He got choked
10:41
out last night on live television
10:43
in the show. Spoiler alert. You
10:45
guys were. Living
10:48
and dying with WrestleMania. So what were
10:50
the takeaways between the two of
10:53
you? Because Zazzle hasn't offered me anything
10:55
other than Cena 17 time champion. I
10:58
mean, if you want to mark out go
11:00
for it as I'm sure I love
11:02
the spectacle of it. It's always a great
11:04
This is the way wrestling has changed
11:06
for me from when I'm a kid where
11:08
okay, I'm rooting for certain wrestlers I
11:10
want certain guys to win because I'm a
11:12
child to now as I'm older It's
11:14
more about especially if I go and Mike
11:16
went to WrestleMania. I didn't you want
11:18
go into a wrestling event now for me
11:20
as an adult I want to be
11:22
part of a moment I want to be
11:24
part of something big. I want to
11:26
be there when the crowd all simultaneously all
11:28
60 ,000 people at that arena at that
11:30
stadium this weekend. They're all cheering at
11:32
the same time for the same thing.
11:34
It's a great feeling. I love the
11:36
emotion that comes that it's about being
11:38
there for moments and Mike got several
11:41
moments. this weekend, which makes
11:43
it an amazing time. Isn't John Cena,
11:45
though, the face of the PG era
11:47
of wrestling? Well, and now he's a
11:49
real piece of garbage, this John Cena.
11:51
But are we another PG? Are we
11:53
liking this? Like, are we buying this?
11:55
I'm seeing some people being like, it
11:58
feels like wrestling is just, I
12:00
don't know, it just feels almost like
12:02
lazy. It looked like that. Triple H
12:04
very clearly took offense to people criticizing
12:07
the build to WrestleMania and I think
12:09
the build was the build and Triple
12:11
H can say you don't know where
12:13
it's going but we're just in a
12:15
vacuum criticizing the lead up to it.
12:17
It does actually seem like there's clarity
12:19
in the direction of this heel character.
12:21
John Cena turned heel a month and
12:24
a half ago and he just found
12:26
his character and he's just starting to
12:28
get it over beginning with last night. That
12:31
Probably was a disappointment the very main event and I think
12:33
that's part of it though. I think they want you
12:35
to be disappointed They wanted you to be angry at them.
12:37
That's part of this story I mean some they don't
12:39
want you to be disappointed after a main event Well, I
12:41
mean I think you got to look at the bigger
12:44
picture or it's like hey the whole show is not just
12:46
the main event like like Mike Maybe you didn't like
12:48
the main event. Did you think did you have a great
12:50
time? Did you think it was a great show? I
12:52
thought the the triple threat match that
12:54
won. Well, what matters. He thought it was
12:56
a great show. He had a great time. Oh,
12:58
yeah. No, it's a spectacle every time. I
13:00
enjoy it. And I actually spoke to a friend
13:02
of the show that is working on a
13:04
project exploring different types of sports. Go on. And
13:06
he took into account this WrestleMania event for
13:08
the first time, not knowing anything about it. And
13:10
it was really cool to kind of be
13:12
texting with that person as they were experiencing it,
13:14
kind of being swept away by the spectacle. It's
13:18
nice that you tried to protect your
13:20
source but somebody revealed that source
13:22
on yesterday's show and I was learning
13:24
of who it is you were
13:26
at WrestleMania with at least in part
13:28
because that person was trying to
13:31
learn about what the WrestleMania experience is
13:33
because that person doesn't think that
13:35
what you guys are attached to here
13:37
is a same thing that human
13:39
beings should be emotionally invested in. It's
13:42
ridiculous. Why would anyone, why does,
13:44
I don't, I just don't understand
13:46
the part where people have a
13:48
problem with other people enjoying a
13:50
show. That's what it boils down to.
13:52
I get it. Would you do? Yeah. Yeah,
13:55
I didn't like Big Bang Theory. I thought people that liked
13:57
it were not my type of people, so I it. But
13:59
are you telling people don't watch Big Bang Theory? You shouldn't
14:01
be watching that? I would. You're an adult? I
14:03
would. I mean, I'm more chill. Now that I'm older,
14:05
there was a time where I'm like, how can
14:07
this be a good show? How do you like this
14:10
show? I don't understand it. And then I realized
14:12
art is subjective. And if people put their heart and
14:14
soul into it, I shouldn't be criticizing it all
14:16
that much. But to me, it's no different than being
14:18
a fan of the last of us. But
14:20
wrestling fans do kind of deserve the
14:22
ribbing. Such a good shout on that
14:24
show. He have picked a better show.
14:27
It's just a polarizing show. Some people
14:29
really love it. And you're just like,
14:31
why? The Last of Us? No, no,
14:33
no. I'm talking about Big Bang Theory. Very
14:35
polarizing. I thought you were talking about The Last
14:37
of Us 2, which, by the way, Season 1
14:39
was really scary, so I decided I'm not going
14:41
to watch Season 2. But I am going to
14:43
lurk. I'm going to be aware it.
14:46
good. It's started strong. It's
14:48
visually fantastic. It's
14:50
a great show. Everyone likes the acting.
14:52
It's a good show. I just finished
14:54
that one, by the way. And? Season
14:57
2? Season 3. Oh. I
14:59
have thoughts we talk about it
15:01
now. It can it is
15:03
the embargo spoiler Wednesday. Yeah, it's
15:06
Wednesday white lotus. You haven't
15:08
caught up like spoiler alert spoiler
15:10
alert spoiler alert like It's
15:13
very interesting to see how people
15:15
like view the relationship of Walton
15:17
Goggins character a little bit because there
15:19
were some people that were really
15:21
devastated by it and as someone
15:23
that kind of was just passively
15:25
following it I understand the trauma,
15:27
but they did a lot of foreshadowing that
15:29
this wasn't actually gonna go anywhere and it
15:31
led to demise. So I don't,
15:33
there are people that are really swept up and romanticizing it
15:35
and you can kind of tell some people have had
15:37
trauma in their lives and I get why they associate it
15:39
that way but I didn't think that this was like
15:41
It wasn't couples' goals to me, the way that a lot
15:43
of people felt like it was. The last part,
15:46
100 % agree with you. I was not
15:48
really sold on the emotional arcs of
15:50
several of the characters this season simply because
15:52
I just don't think the writing was
15:54
as tight as the first couple seasons. I
15:56
think there was just not enough to
15:58
make me really invested. My
16:00
appraisal toward the
16:02
end of it was
16:04
that they copped
16:06
out. and if he'd
16:08
gone totally dark with how
16:11
beautiful, and again, spoiler alert,
16:13
spoiler alert, spoiler alert, if
16:16
they had stayed with the
16:18
only one who died amid
16:20
the riches was the kid
16:23
who was looking up at
16:25
the Buddhists, the artistry of
16:27
all of that visually, if
16:29
they had ended dark with
16:32
death, That ending would
16:34
have been beautiful, but instead, they just
16:36
wrapped up all the storylines after
16:38
that, including spa owner waves as if
16:40
she's on a cruise ship, and
16:42
they just sort of wrapped it up
16:44
in a way that wasn't artful.
16:47
That was my criticism of the end
16:49
of it, but the journey of
16:51
it... where that's the death that you
16:53
get and the plot twist. I
16:55
understand why everybody was or so many
16:57
people were watching that show and
16:59
then that the conclusion of it would
17:01
be unsatisfying because why? Because they
17:04
wanted. different results they wanted. I
17:06
don't think it was unsatisfying. I think it
17:08
kind of delivered in that it gave you
17:10
a moment to discuss and people can have
17:12
their opinions as to whether or not it
17:14
was good or bad, but I think everybody
17:16
was there for the event and in terms
17:18
of like an appointment viewing event, the White
17:20
Lotus finale did kind of deliver on that
17:22
and give them you talking points. It's a
17:24
very entertaining show and I just think that
17:26
the characters in this season weren't the strongest,
17:28
especially compared to the first two seasons, which
17:30
were shorter seasons and shorter episodes. and sort
17:32
of had, delivered more of a punch. I
17:35
don't think it's that entertaining. I think it's
17:37
intriguing. I think it's
17:39
an intriguing show, but most weeks, I
17:42
feel like nothing is happening. It's easy
17:44
to watch though, because it's a mystery. Yes.
17:46
Can you be intrigued by something, but
17:48
not be entertained by Yeah. Because I think
17:50
entertainment is intriguing sometimes. Well, yes.
17:52
Pro -wrestling sometimes. Yes. That is entertaining and
17:54
intriguing. But if you're intrigued, you must be
17:56
a little bit entertained to be intrigued. I'm
17:58
interested. No, because I want to find out
18:01
the mystery. I want to find out what's
18:03
going to happen. Doesn't necessarily mean I'm entertained
18:05
every some weeks. I'm sitting there for 60
18:07
minutes like nothing happened. Where's the entertainment line
18:09
for you? Like what is what crosses? And
18:11
you're like now I'm entertained. How
18:14
intrigued do you need to be? That's
18:16
a good question. How intrigued do you have
18:18
to be to cross over into entertain
18:20
because. Goggins is having
18:22
a moment to have both of
18:24
those shows going Sunday nights where
18:26
he's the critical character. He's been,
18:29
for all this time with McBride
18:31
and others, he's been number
18:33
two. He's rising to a number
18:36
one, especially because on Gemstones,
18:38
he's using a prosthetic of a
18:40
78 -year -old penis. Amazing. Can
18:42
I get the sound
18:45
of White Lotus creator,
18:47
Mike White, telling his customers,
18:49
you're not allowed To
18:51
be a bossy bottom there was complaining
18:53
about how there's no plot and that
18:56
part I find weird because the it
18:58
never had him like it's never been
19:00
It's like part of me is just
19:02
like bro. This is the vibe like
19:04
I'm world -building, you know, I mean
19:06
it's just like you know like You
19:09
know, if you don't want to go to bed with me,
19:11
get out of my bed. Like, you know what I mean?
19:13
I'm edging you, you know? It's like, enjoy the edging. Like,
19:15
if you don't want to be edged, get out of my
19:17
bed. Do you know what I mean? It's just like, don't
19:19
be a bossy bottom. Or get the fuck out of my
19:21
bed. Like, don't come home with me. Don't get naked in
19:23
my bed. Get the fuck out of my bed. All right.
19:26
I love being edgy by you, Mike. Obviously,
19:28
something's going to happen. I'm
19:30
not going to just like, yeah, we're not going to to leave you here.
19:32
I'm not to leave you here with nothing. Seems
19:34
defensive. Not
19:37
a great moment for him. I mean, I like
19:39
him. I used to watch him on Amazing
19:41
Race and then Survivor, so I'm a big white
19:43
guy. I'm less interested, honestly, in his art
19:45
than his reality TV appearances. But if you say
19:47
the sentence, I'm world building, you kind of
19:49
lose me. Triple H had the exact same reaction
19:51
to people criticizing the build of the WrestleMania
19:53
main event. I mean, it's like he had two
19:55
good seasons. This one was a bit of
19:57
a letdown for people. Like that's fine, you know,
19:59
to get like so angry about it. I
20:01
actually get a fourth one. So I actually thought
20:04
the second and third season were better than
20:06
the first. Personally, I don't
20:08
know what the reaction was. Was
20:10
it a polarizing reaction to both
20:12
the ending and the entirety of
20:14
the season? Were there a lot
20:16
of complaints because popular thing growing,
20:18
which is what this is over
20:20
three years, the whatever it is,
20:22
the more it grows. The more criticism it's
20:24
going to get, no matter how good it
20:26
becomes until at the end Game of Thrones
20:29
is falling apart, because there's a Starbucks cup
20:31
in one of the scenes. Well, I mean,
20:33
people were criticizing White Lotus like on season,
20:35
like on episode three this season. They were
20:37
like already out on it. They didn't like
20:39
it from the beginning and they were just
20:41
kind of waiting for it to end to
20:43
find what to complain about. On Mystery Crate,
20:45
we were saying how the finale was a
20:48
legacy episode for Mike White. Big
20:50
episode for him. And what was the conclusion?
20:54
inconclusive yeah i think he can he can
20:56
reel me back in with season four if
20:58
season four is good i'll be back in
21:00
i just i think the common criticism dan
21:02
was that the finale was unearned it was
21:04
just not a lot of it was a
21:06
little you know predictable i found it predictable
21:08
and that is a bummer because i think
21:11
the first couple seasons the way the characters
21:13
die in the first two seasons are like
21:15
totally absurdist and unpredictable and the way the
21:17
characters died in this season was like in
21:19
a sad like shootout at a resort but
21:21
some of the stuff was like rushed like
21:23
Spoiler alert he shoots his dad and his
21:25
dad like went and yelled at him and
21:28
then and then the wife was like That
21:30
was your dad and it's like well should
21:32
have told him. We didn't told us like
21:34
40 years ago like it was that part
21:36
Yeah, it was just a little we knew
21:38
that he was gonna be the dad. We
21:40
knew but that's what the big reveal I
21:42
did not that was a surprise wait wait
21:45
hold on Chris wait hold on Chris walk
21:47
us through the surprising moments of this season
21:49
of white lotus for you. I'm uh the
21:51
The lady saying, he's your dad. He told
21:53
me this morning. That part. Well,
21:55
what did you think? Who'd you think his
21:57
dad was? I thought his dad had died.
21:59
I thought that that guy had killed his
22:01
dad. So the Goggins. I mean, that's how
22:03
it was set up the entire story. All
22:05
right. I need to stop everyone. Just please
22:07
and forgive me for doing this, just because
22:09
I have to stop Jessica for a moment.
22:13
I thought if something
22:15
was a legacy game, whatever
22:17
happened at the end of that. Couldn't be
22:19
inconclusive. They can't, like, COVID test. Sometime, remember back
22:22
in, like, the height of COVID, you'd go,
22:24
you're waiting in the long line, they'd stick the
22:26
thing up your nose in your car, you'd
22:28
have to go like this, and then you have
22:30
to tilt your head back. Put
22:32
your brain a little. be waiting around, like, can I go
22:34
on vacation? Can I not? Can I go to work? Can
22:36
I not? And then it comes back, it's like, inconclusive. You're
22:38
like, how? How is this inconclusive? And
22:41
it's like, well, they did it 14 times instead
22:43
of 15 times, so we don't know if
22:45
you have it or you don't. Same thing with
22:47
the legacy game, legacy episode, inconclusive. A
22:49
legacy game has to be conclusive.
22:51
No, not always. It's a legacy game.
22:53
If it's a legacy game, if
22:55
it's for your legacy, must be conclusive.
22:57
No. Here, I think, I think
22:59
what the problem is, Dan, there was
23:01
enough in the finale that we're
23:03
not writing off the show completely. There
23:05
was enough moment. Then it's not
23:07
a legacy game. Kuhn's monologue was a
23:09
moment. There were other, like, small
23:11
moments. Saxon having his tearful look back at Chelsea
23:14
after he realized that. How was he the
23:16
one that grew the most? He's soulless. Yeah, it's
23:18
a great question. The weirdest part of the
23:20
season. He's the only one that left a better
23:22
person than when he got there. What brother
23:24
would do that? Yeah, that was a weirder part.
23:26
Which part? I think his legacy moment
23:28
was... Do you guys call that part too? You
23:31
guys saw that part coming? Very predictable. I
23:33
mean, yeah, there was like a ton
23:35
of foreshadowing that something weird was gonna happen.
23:37
First episode, like, okay. Yeah, ton
23:39
of foreshadowing. Not that
23:41
though. Not that much. Not
23:43
that much. Mike White gave us
23:45
enough. Yeah. I'll watch season four.
23:47
willing to suspend the legacy conversation until
23:49
season four ends. But season four
23:51
is definitely a legacy season. It's gotta
23:53
be good. It's gotta good. Big
23:55
bounce back ceiling we need. Yeah. I
23:58
don't understand how doing this. Legacy
24:00
episode. If it's a legacy thing, it
24:02
ends. Inconclusive. No, it can't. Sometimes. No,
24:05
no. Have you ever had a medical exam? You're
24:07
inconclusive all the time. No, it's not a legacy
24:09
medical exam. It's just a it depends on what
24:11
they're testing for. Ever
24:15
feel like your paycheck disappeared before you
24:17
even know where it went? You're not alone.
24:19
Tracking your spending can be tricky, especially
24:22
when little expenses sneak up on you. Late
24:24
night food deliveries, I'm raising my hand,
24:26
that happens to be all the time. Impulse
24:28
online shopping, sporting event tickets, and don't
24:30
even get me started on organic baby wipes
24:32
and diapers. I mean, that's costing me
24:34
a fortune right now. Finances can feel overwhelming,

28:11
Sports website and app hits his
28:13
first appearance on this show. Thank you
28:15
for joining us, Nate. Before we
28:17
get started, though, and play Naughty or
28:19
Tice, which is the only reason
28:21
we're having you on, I think, you're
28:24
most interested about what in this
28:26
upcoming draft. And thank you again for
28:28
joining us. Most interested. I
28:30
just want to see where the quarterbacks go. As always,
28:32
I'm basic. You know, quarterbacks, they draw my eyes.
28:34
I follow the stars. But thank you for having me.
28:36
But yeah, I just want to see where the
28:38
quarterbacks end up, because there's been a lot of hoopla,
28:41
a lot of flags being planted. I
28:43
want to see some of those flags go down. Hoopla,
28:45
all right. That's really what say. All righty, we've already gotten
28:47
to the hoopla. I thought it was who. OK, so
28:49
all right, we're at the hoopla. Before
28:51
we get to draft stuff, did you see
28:53
the story with AJ Brown getting his car
28:55
recovered after it was stolen? Did you see
28:57
all of this? I did not.
29:00
I did not see AJ Brown. he
29:02
reading a book? And that's why it's got
29:04
stolen. No, I was a little distracted reading
29:06
a book. I only bring it up because
29:08
it's breaking news now. And I expect you
29:10
to know every single thing that is happening
29:12
anywhere in sports in the sport right now
29:14
at this time. So you don't know anything
29:16
about what I'm talking about. That'd be a
29:19
weird. I do not. Mobile. I do not.
29:21
I'm five layers deep in the draft. I'm
29:23
watching Ash and Genty versus Nevada Reno. You
29:25
know, that's what I'm pulling right now. So
29:27
do not see AJ Brown. I'll do that.
29:29
Billy, get me more information
29:31
on this story, please, as it breaks.
29:33
Jessica, I'm sorry, I interrupted you with
29:35
the Breaking AJ Brown News. Oh, you
29:37
didn't interrupt me, Dan. I listened to
29:39
Nate's podcast with Charles, and I'm a
29:41
huge fan. And he's, like he
29:43
said, he's basic. He wants to see where
29:45
the quarterbacks go. I'm also basic. I want
29:47
to see where the quarterbacks go. And right
29:49
now, there's obviously been a lot of news
29:51
about Shudder Sanders. Where is he a reach?
29:53
Where is he sort of a good pick?
29:55
Like, are the Steelers going to take him
29:57
at 21, where do you see that unfolding?
30:01
Yeah, I think Steelers kind of seems
30:03
like the, I don't know, floor
30:05
is the right word or ceiling where
30:07
he can go highest. Because
30:09
I think what happened with the Shudder
30:11
Sanders experience is that experience, I'll say,
30:13
because it has been experienced this whole
30:15
draft cycle, is that I think was
30:17
more evaluator started evaluating him, you know,
30:19
the one, the decision makers, the coaches,
30:22
the GMs, assistant GMs, the ones up
30:24
top, they all just kind of went,
30:26
Oh. OK, this is what
30:28
you are. And this is good
30:30
and bad. And I think that the realistic
30:32
slotting for him is starting at pick 20
30:34
into the early second round. And you never
30:36
know, because teams get frisky with quarterbacks, especially
30:38
in the 20s. Oh, our guys dropping. We
30:40
got to move up for there. But I
30:43
think that at pick 20 is where
30:45
or 21, I believe it's where the Steelers
30:47
are is really where it starts for him.
30:49
Because I just think that it's realistic expectations
30:51
for him. I view him as a second
30:53
rounder or a day two guy, as I
30:55
put it, because quarterback grading gets wonky and
30:57
where they actually go. But that is
31:00
kind of, I think more of the consensus than
31:02
not was been kind of publicly happening. And I
31:04
think it's kind of catching up and we'll see
31:06
that on draft night. But the Steelers might be
31:08
one, but we'll see. It can be all over
31:10
the place because that's how this. class, not just
31:12
quarterbacks, but the entire class of the draft is
31:14
there's lack of consensus. So it might be it's
31:16
might be even more wonky on a Thursday and
31:18
Friday than we usually see. Man, I want to
31:21
listen to the words you're saying, but I'm just
31:23
so lost in your eyes. Just
31:25
beautiful eyes you have. Swimming, swimming
31:27
in lagoons is what it feels
31:29
like. He said three times. I didn't
31:31
hear anything else. There were just
31:33
a couple of wonkeys and something else.
31:35
And I was just lost swimming
31:38
in his eyes. I know I'm
31:40
awake, so my eyes are actually open. Usually
31:42
they're just slits, and then that's all you
31:44
can usually see with them. So I appreciate
31:46
that. I appreciate the blue -eye compliments. Nate,
31:48
do you know who Andrew Hawkins is?
31:51
Yeah. Who's hotter? Him or Method Man?
31:55
Hawkins definitely I have an update on
31:57
the AJ Brown situation so AJ Brown's
31:59
car was stolen and he put out
32:01
on Twitter Dear Philly to whoever stole
32:03
my car last night. I'll make a
32:05
deal with you Bring back my car,
32:07
and I won't press charges or when
32:09
I find you today It's going to
32:11
be what it's going to be take
32:13
it or leave it my guy And
32:16
his car has been returned, but Brown
32:18
says the police returned his car, and
32:20
the thief is dealing with consequences. So
32:23
either he found that car and consequences are
32:25
being dealt with, or he may have lied to
32:27
the people saying there'd be no consequences if
32:29
they returned the car. That's
32:31
the latest at the news desk. I'm
32:33
Billy Gill. Thank you. It's a
32:35
good story. So basically, AJ Brown threatened
32:37
someone, a thief, to return his
32:39
car successfully. He made an ultimatum, it
32:41
sounds like. That is excellent work
32:44
by A .J. Brown. But
32:46
I'm surprised that Nate Tice hadn't even
32:48
heard of the story, because, again, I
32:51
know, well, but I mean, if
32:53
his car was getting drafted, Nate would
32:55
know it. Maybe. That's right. I
32:57
know about it. I had a late
32:59
second grade on his car, so
33:01
I'm surprised it went this early and
33:03
that he signed a deal to
33:05
be dropped in the news this early.
33:07
I thought the new CBA didn't
33:09
allow that to be signed before the
33:11
draft. Nate, Jessica, do me this
33:13
favor, please, and explain to me something
33:15
I simply don't understand. because while
33:17
I love that Greg Cody does his
33:19
exactos and his mock drafts, and
33:21
I've been making fun of him about
33:23
it for 20 years, I believe
33:25
that Jessica and Nate care about this
33:27
draft more than reasonable human beings
33:29
should. I also believe that our friend,
33:31
Mina Kimes, cares about mock drafts
33:33
in general more than she cares about
33:35
anything else in the world. And
33:37
I'm genuinely confused by the phenomenon. Please
33:39
explain it to me in your... Hope.
33:43
I think that's what it is. I think hope
33:45
is what you're selling on draft night. And
33:48
I think that's why they've packaged it, stamped
33:50
it, and sold it to everybody. I think
33:52
that's really what it is. And I think
33:54
too is that college football is so big
33:56
that you have people that, hey, we're playing
33:58
member barriers with some of these guys. Hey,
34:00
this guy, you know him. He won the
34:03
Heisman. Hey, this guy was really good, a
34:05
four -year starter for your school, which is unlikely
34:07
now with everyone transferring. But really, that's
34:09
what you're selling to teams, is that
34:11
All 32 teams have hope. The games
34:13
haven't started. They haven't started 0 and
34:15
6. They haven't started 0 and 5.
34:17
They haven't fired their head coach. Their
34:19
quarterback isn't actually a lemon. And
34:21
I think that's what you're selling. And also, the
34:23
draft now, if you notice, is it's rotating all
34:25
these cold weather cities. And I think that's been
34:27
a great thing for actually the NFL. It's like,
34:29
well, also they make more money off of it.
34:31
So of course, it's a great thing for them.
34:33
But they have gone, oh, the Super Bowl gets
34:36
the warm weather cities. Well, how do we reward
34:38
or bring this event to the fans? And I
34:40
actually think that's been a good part of this.
34:42
I know it's in Green Bay this year, which
34:44
is kind a pain to ask for most people
34:46
to get to. But I know being in Pittsburgh,
34:48
Chicago, Kansas City, Detroit, Detroit, it was
34:50
awesome last year. So I think that's a
34:52
part of it too, is that it's the fan
34:54
event. While the Super Bowl is the corporate
34:56
event, the draft is truly the fan
34:58
event. And I think that's why so many people get
35:00
hyped up about it. the college football
35:02
side of it is why I mean I'm
35:04
a fan of the NFL and college football
35:06
but I like you said I love seeing
35:08
players that I watch playing college get drafted
35:10
and usually especially in the first round it's
35:12
like their dream come true it's like the
35:15
best day of their lives unless they get
35:17
drafted to the Giants or something like that
35:19
but I was Going through your one of
35:21
your mock drafts in the car, I was
35:23
on like a seven hour car ride and
35:25
Lehman was just naming players and I was
35:27
giving their positions and where they went to
35:29
school just because we were bored. And it
35:31
seems like a really deep draft for Ed
35:33
rusher specifically. Is that the position group that
35:35
you think has the most value later on
35:38
in the later rounds? I
35:40
would say the deepest position is running
35:42
back. There might be double -digit running
35:44
backs in the first two days
35:46
that get selected. I looked it up.
35:48
The record since the new millennium
35:50
since 2000 is 11 in the top
35:52
three rounds. I think the
35:54
all -time records the mid -90s is like 15 or
35:56
14, which is... you it's a different age.
35:58
But I think that the running back is the
36:01
deepest class with Ash and Genty two on
36:03
top. And there might be two or three runbacks
36:05
selected in the first. But edge is another
36:07
spot and not just edge D line in general
36:09
is pretty good and pretty deep at the
36:11
top and into the second day. And actually the
36:13
position that I think has been kind of
36:15
overlooked a little bit is that there's some depth
36:17
that often is aligned. There might not be
36:19
the really, really great guys at the top of
36:22
the draft. But there's a lot of players,
36:24
I would say late first, early second that it's
36:26
a little juicier. than you would expect. Then
36:28
I think it's been kind of made out
36:30
to be. And then tight end is another position
36:32
that has talent at the top. And on
36:34
day two, some interesting guys, they're like real tight
36:36
ends, too. Not the Mike Kosicki types. I
36:39
know I'm giving a shout out to Dolphin's
36:41
fans here. So how dare you blaspheme again,
36:43
Kosicki types? What's wrong with those? What's wrong
36:45
with Kosicki types? I like Kosicki types. Can't
36:47
block. block. All
36:50
right, I don't need you disparaging
36:52
Kosicki's around here. Yeah,
36:54
too many Kisiki references
36:56
already. He's an excellent
36:58
renaissance I'm fine with
37:00
Kisiki. You're the one
37:02
who said shit about
37:04
him. I Just
37:06
wanted to block once just
37:08
once just just what he
37:10
does not what he does What's
37:12
the comp for Travis Hunter
37:14
on both sides the ball? The
37:17
one I've gone with for him as a
37:19
receiver is Chad Ochocinco, Chad Johnson. Chad
37:22
was a much better route runner,
37:24
became a very polished route runner, but
37:26
as far as body type and
37:28
skills and ball skills and everything like
37:31
that, they're one -to -one really to
37:33
me. Travis might be a little more
37:35
explosive, but Odell Beckham is another
37:37
comparison I've heard with him, but that
37:39
body type, Twitchy, he's just an
37:41
excellent athlete. And then defensively, I've kind
37:43
of struggled with a few, like
37:45
Asante Samuel Sr. might be one. Um,
37:48
champ Bailey is another one, which is
37:50
maybe the high end comparison. But the
37:52
fact that I'm comparing Chad Johnson and
37:54
champ Bailey to this guy, uh, it
37:56
kind of speaks to how crazy he
37:58
is. He's really the top tier athlete
38:00
I've watched in a long time. Um,
38:02
I grew up around Randy Moss and
38:04
he's kind of the top tier top
38:06
athlete I've ever been around. Bobby
38:08
Bowden. who coached Randy Moss for
38:11
a semester. I think before he
38:13
got kicked off, I had to go
38:15
to Marshall said, hey, Randy Moss or Dion
38:17
Sanders to me is the parameter for
38:19
athleticism and Randy is a bigger Dion. So
38:21
I'm saying Travis Hunter is a smaller Randy
38:23
Moss. Well, then I'm comparing him to Dion, which
38:25
is, you know, kind of in a roundabout
38:27
way. But no matter what, he's a freak athlete
38:29
and there's some rawness with him as a
38:31
receiver, but just the talent and just his athleticism
38:33
that's like he's going to figure it out.
38:35
That's what's so cool about him. Nate,
38:37
while we're doing player comps, what
38:40
tier of prospect is Ashton Gentie? A
38:42
historic season, but is he historically
38:44
a good running back prospect? The
38:46
speed and power don't jump off the
38:48
screen like someone like Adrian Peterson's did.
38:50
Someone just asked me to sound blue
38:52
-sky? Because you said it was a
38:54
good question, so. It was a good question. Yeah,
38:57
I have been like officially quote
38:59
unquote, evaluating guys for about 10 years
39:01
now, 11 years. And the best
39:03
the top tier running back to me,
39:05
my favorite running back prospect was
39:07
Ezekiel Elliott. And then the other guys
39:09
I would say are in that
39:11
top tier are Todd Gurley, Bijan
39:13
Robinson, CMC and St. Juan Barkley. And
39:15
then if I had to like split
39:17
that tier, it's Zeke. And then it
39:19
would be Gurley and Saquon and then
39:21
CMC Bijan. I would put Genti in
39:23
that CMC Bijan tier. So like a tier.
39:25
Do these tiers, do these quadrants come
39:27
to you in your sleep? Like when you're
39:30
actually drinking at night, is this in
39:32
your actual sleep? It is, correct? Yeah.
39:34
Yeah. I grade everything off tiers and then
39:37
everything, everything. Oh, that shower was a blue
39:39
chip shower. Yeah. Yeah. That
39:41
was a day two. Tooth brushing do
39:43
you guys? Do you guys remember
39:45
Nate? Excuse me Nate Nate Tyson's playing
39:47
career. Do any of you remember? This
39:51
interview is longer than my career
39:53
No, do want to give me this?
39:55
I can you guys get me
39:57
the stats from the game? Can or
39:59
does does Nate know this the
40:01
only play one game? Nate, I have
40:03
one stat ever. It's one one
40:05
rush for 17 yards, one touchdown. And
40:08
17 is also how many drinks I had
40:10
that night. So that was to celebrate it. What
40:13
was the score of that game? Oh,
40:15
my God. Didn't we drop 80 on them? And
40:18
then Michael senior called us out.
40:20
And I actually said it was an
40:22
embarrassment to the sport. It
40:24
was like 83 -20, I think. I
40:27
was the human victory cigar in college.
40:29
Wait a minute. You averaged 17 yards
40:31
a carry at Wisconsin? Oh, yeah. Yeah.
40:34
Oh, yeah. One for one, baby.
40:36
One touch, one touchdown. That's how we
40:38
do it. Fishy. believe Indiana made
40:40
the playoff before Wisconsin did? No.
40:43
No. Wisconsin football is
40:45
a little touchy subject right now. It's
40:47
it's not I'm not happy with what's going
40:49
on there running the air rate for two years.
40:52
What are we doing here? Let's
40:54
speed him up a little bit. Let's
40:56
speed him up a little bit before we
40:58
get him out of here and before
41:00
we play naughty or Tice. Are you ready
41:02
to play naughty or Tice? Let's do
41:04
it. Let's do it. First, before we play
41:06
naughty or Tice, just fill in the
41:08
blank. You just mentioned best running back prospect
41:10
you've ever seen best quarterback prospect you
41:12
have ever seen. Andrew Luck. Easily.
41:15
Best he's the best prospect
41:17
ever best offensive lineman prospect
41:19
you have seen Tristan worse
41:21
Best wide receiver prospect you
41:23
have seen oh That's hard
41:26
Marvin Harrison see actually not
41:28
at the lie Julio Jones
41:30
Julio Jones, but that was
41:32
maybe a little before me
41:34
the most likely to be
41:37
transcendent superstar not named Travis
41:39
Hunter is blank Ooh,
41:41
that's a great question. Not
41:44
named, oh, I would say
41:46
Abdul Carter would probably be
41:48
the one. Naughty
41:50
or Tice, Shador
41:52
Sanders deserves to have his
41:54
jersey retired at Colorado. Good
41:56
question. So Tice as
41:58
I agree and Naughty as I do not agree.
42:00
You get it. Don't complicate this Yeah, Naughty or
42:02
Tice. man. Naughty. Naughty.
42:04
Naughty. Naughty. He's naughty. What happened, Billy?
42:07
I just didn't seem to get this
42:09
game. Billy, you're executive producing it. You
42:11
want to help me out? OK. Well,
42:13
Mario and Hampton will be a first -round
42:15
pick in the draft. Naughty or Tice? Tice.
42:20
One word like it. OK. Everyone is
42:22
sick of Aaron Rodgers, and he won't
42:24
be signed before the draft. Naughty or
42:26
Tice? I...
42:28
Tice. I'm not before
42:30
the draft. I think that's gonna be
42:32
a little bit after that. Okay. You want me to
42:34
expand on that running back one? Yeah, there might be
42:36
three running backs that go on the first round. yeah. Yeah.
42:39
All right. Naughty or Tice, Trevor Lawrence
42:41
is not that guy. Naughty.
42:46
Absolutely naughty. No, no Trevor Lawrence is
42:48
legit. Are you saying naughty to him
42:50
not being guy? confused by this game.
42:52
I'm confused which answer means. The
42:54
question was he's not that guy
42:56
and he said not to that. So
42:58
that's too negative. So he's saying
43:00
that he is that guy. But he's
43:02
not positive that Trevor Lawrence is
43:04
good. Why you guys complicating such a
43:06
simple game? I'm positive he's good.
43:08
I'm very positive. He's good. A lot
43:10
of people watching Jacksonville at 1
43:13
p .m. Are we all watching diverse
43:15
tape? Notty or Tice. It's
43:18
very simple. Notty or Tice, Ben Johnson
43:20
will lead the Bears to a winning
43:22
record this season. Tice.
43:24
I think they just go over there.
43:27
I'm actually buying the Bears hype this year.
43:29
Notty or Tice, more than two quarterbacks
43:31
will be taken in the first
43:33
round of the NFL draft this year.
43:37
Notty. I actually, one of my
43:39
bull takes is only one will
43:41
go in the first round. Naughty
43:44
or Tice, Nico Iamaliava got bad
43:46
advice. Oh, Tice,
43:48
he got real bad. Well, Tennessee
43:50
might be happy with it. I
43:53
think he got bad advice trying
43:55
to up the number and everything
43:57
I think he should have just
43:59
taken his Taking his soup and
44:01
been happy with it to be
44:03
honest based on his play So
44:05
I do think he got bad
44:07
expression was that what was that
44:09
expression? What I have no idea
44:11
that was In my head I
44:13
pictured can I have some more
44:15
sir, you know like that came
44:17
to my head Alright, this is
44:19
disgusting from Chris I
44:21
do but to Roy Nate come on
44:23
man Nate it is not naughty or
44:25
Tice and then well Like you got
44:28
a pick either naughty or Tice can
44:30
I can I propose I've been answering
44:32
a comma can I been off to
44:34
naughty or Tice naughty and Tice and
44:36
we ask you a question you tell
44:38
us the naughty side and then from
44:40
the other perspective the people that think
44:42
it's Tice Jackson dart is no longer
44:44
attending the draft in Green Bay because
44:47
he will not be drafted in the
44:49
first round Tice, I
44:51
think he goes in the second. I
44:53
think the Saints do like him though. But he's
44:56
asking you to play the game differently. He's asking
44:58
you to make the argument on one side for
45:00
Naughty. Okay. Naughty side. The
45:02
Naughty side is that he is going
45:04
the first round. He just wanted to be
45:06
with his family and just hang out.
45:08
The Tice side is that actually he's going
45:10
on day two, which is where he
45:12
should be going. I think that's my perspective
45:14
on it. Nate, our guy, our special
45:16
boy Riley Leonard, Naughty or Tice, day two
45:18
player this year. Naughty
45:21
side is that, no, have you watched him
45:23
throw? Oh my God, that's day three. The
45:25
tight side is, oh my God, yes, he's
45:27
a surprising guy that might go on day
45:29
two, maybe even top 90, because he's a
45:32
good athlete, he's tough, and he actually has
45:34
a little bit more arm talent than people
45:36
give him credit for. But yes, that is
45:38
our guy, Jess, me and Michael Jr. Hand
45:41
up, I think I made this game more confusing
45:43
now, because we're not getting any answers. I
45:46
don't know what he believes in, but
45:48
he doesn't anymore. Executive produced by Billy Gill,
45:50
ladies and gentlemen. Naughty or Tice, thank
45:52
you. Wait, one more. Naughty or Tice? Andrew
45:55
Luck, considering the hype and how
45:57
you retired early because of injury. Bust? Naughty.
46:03
I'm not even going with the Tice
46:05
side there. That's not easy. Executive
46:07
produced by Billy Guild. One last question.
46:09
Thank you. Appreciate your time, Nate.
46:11
It is true. Your eyes are lagoons.
46:15
Tice. They are lagoons. Thank
46:17
you. Folks, listen up. They're
46:19
here and they're hot. Get ready
46:21
because Jimmy Johns is turning up
46:23
the heat. After years of perfecting
46:25
the cold sandwich, toasted sandwiches are
46:27
finally here. Try one of their
46:30
three all -new toasted creations. The toasted
46:32
chicken bacon ranch, all -natural chicken,
46:34
creamy home -style ranch, applewood smoked bacon,
46:36
melted provolone fresh veggies, all on
46:38
a perfectly toasted French bread. Good
46:40
God, does that sound delicious. Or
46:42
the toasted roast beef and cheddar,
46:44
premium roast beef, melty cheddar, creamy
46:46
horseradish sauce, crispy fried onions, fresh
46:48
veggies, golden toasted French bread. It
46:50
just keeps getting better. And the
46:52
toasted Hey
47:16
you in the audience, it's Mike. You've
47:18
