00:00Aikman has time this time and gets it to Novacek. Novacek to the 30. Not a first down. Not a
00:09first down. But three in a row won't happen. For so many years, it's finally out. And it's his day
00:16and it's his team. And he knows it. And everyone else knows it.
00:21Now, back to Stiney and Guru on 95.7 The Game.
00:26That was the final call of the 1994 NFC Championship. Niners would go on and win the Super Bowl. And
00:33they would knock off the Dallas Cowboys. This is the crossover. We got What's Buggy and Brought Tobacco Pest Control
00:38coming up in about 10 minutes. But Evan Giddings in for Matt Steinmetz, Daryl the Guru Johnson, Dan Dibley, Mark
00:43Willard. What's up, boys? Happy Friday.
00:45The sweater. Looking good in the sweater. You look like Jimmy Butler, the assistant coach.
00:51That's what you look like right now. Wish I was paid like him, too.
00:54He's a high-paid assistant. Yeah, I mean, you brought your Friday fit. You look handsome. So, like, you got
00:59the calf. I'm sure you've got some post-calf activity.
01:02Work after work. Unfortunately, yeah, I can't go to the calf. Stop being a little calf. Seriously. That's a foreign
01:08wish I was going to the calf.
01:08What do you have tonight? I'm doing the Stockton Kings G League game. So I'm driving straight to Stockton after
01:15this.
01:16Okay. And he let me know Kenny and I aren't as cool as I thought Kenny and I were.
01:20I was pulling this chain, you know, my thing. Where are you watching the game? And I just go, hey,
01:26I'm watching at Kenny's house.
01:27And you would have thought he got the Holy Ghost. He jumped up out the chair on air.
01:31No chance.
01:34Wait, you're watching at Kenny's house?
01:36I was playing to see. I was just playing to see if Evan. But Evan's reaction was like, Kenny and
01:43I ain't that cool. Like, that would never happen.
01:45And so we got a problem, Kenny. Yeah, something's going on behind closed doors.
01:48I live 10 minutes away from Kenny. And I've been to Kenny's house.
01:52I call it a state.
01:54Hashtag gated driveway.
01:55Yeah, I've been there too.
01:56And I should have gone to the pool party.
01:58Yeah, you've got to shout out Jordan.
01:59And I missed that. But, you know, when I went there the other day to give him his Valkyries parade
02:03credential,
02:04I was like, oh, look at you with the gate.
02:06Yeah, the spidey senses were tingling on that one.
02:09There's no chance.
02:10I didn't like your reaction.
02:12Something's going on with Kenny and I.
02:13Yeah, is there a whole subculture going on here?
02:15You drove to Kenny's house to give him a Valkyries credential?
02:20I did him a favor.
02:20What the hell is going on here?
02:22What happened is he got a credential to work the Valkyries parade.
02:28And I'm the only one who lives near his house.
02:30And so Grandy, who is the director of sports, he said, do me a solid if you would and bring
02:35the credential to Kenny
02:36because Kenny was not coming back in until he had to go to the parade.
02:40So I said, no problem.
02:41And it's, you know, kind of on my way-ish.
02:44And so I drove there and, you know, you do the whole like ways and you look at it.
02:47It's like, oh, look at you, Kenny.
02:49And you pull up and I actually called him two minutes before.
02:52I'm like, I'm coming up.
02:53So if you could like, you know, meet me because I'm running, you know, I'm doing the run thing.
02:56I'm doing your favor.
02:57Be outside.
02:57And so all of a sudden I'm driving up and here's Kenny and I look and I'm like, ah, here
03:01you go.
03:01He's like, dibs, no problem.
03:02Thank you so much.
03:03And I'm ready to leave.
03:04I'm like, oh, gated driveway, huh?
03:06Look at you.
03:07That's a flex.
03:08Okay.
03:08Where did OJ live?
03:10Brentwood.
03:10It's got that Brentwood feel.
03:12It's got that Brentwood feel to it.
03:14That's a compliment.
03:15We call this Kenwood.
03:16That's what it is.
03:17Didn't think I heard an Orinthal reference.
03:19You never know.
03:20Today on the show.
03:21You never know.
03:22He was once a part of the Cowboys-Niners rivalry, right?
03:24I wore this because I felt like you guys had been disappointed all week.
03:28I hadn't worn anything.
03:30I swear.
03:31I said, my guy, I think they're disappointed I ain't wore nothing.
03:34So I threw it on, dibs.
03:36And you called me Rick Meyer.
03:37Number three, Rick Meyer.
03:38Rick Meyer.
03:40Wow.
03:41I mean this in the most wonderful way.
03:43You're the most predictable person I know.
03:46You knew I was coming in.
03:47Dude, I walked by the glass window over here.
03:52I've not even said hello yet.
03:54And you're giving me the chest flip of your jersey.
03:57Because I knew you were that man.
03:57Yeah.
03:57I almost didn't wear it.
03:59I had a sweater like yours.
04:00I was like, you know what?
04:01Just go ahead.
04:02Throw it on.
04:02It goes to what everybody at this station has been talking about for the last three days,
04:06which is like, apparently, if you haven't turned 38 yet, you're not triggered by that jersey.
04:12Wow.
04:13But this is a sign, though.
04:14I'm still triggered by that jersey.
04:15Go ahead.
04:16Wow.
04:17I don't care that you guys suck every year.
04:20You're the Cowboys.
04:21You are snooty-ass people who think you're America's team.
04:27You're not America's team.
04:29You're not.
04:30You're not.
04:30Who's the guy that called you and Bonte yesterday?
04:33We make the most money.
04:35First of all, no, you don't.
04:36Second of all, who cares?
04:38What does that have to do with it?
04:40Yeah, right.
04:40Anyway.
04:41But worth the most, he was saying.
04:42Yeah, but that ain't our bread.
04:43Whatever.
04:44It ain't mine.
04:45Whatever.
04:45Whatever.
04:46So, yes.
04:47That jersey and that star still bother me.
04:49These are the signs of the times, though, because I would have thought it'd be an 88, you know, maybe
04:55an Aikman.
04:57It's George Pickens.
04:58Matt, you heard me.
04:58You're in a George Pickens jersey.
05:00Well, he's about to be gone, so I had to wear it in the rain.
05:02So, I was like, you know what?
05:03Let me get it in now.
05:04When you're wearing a jersey of someone who's on the franchise tag, it's a questionable move.
05:09And I apologize to Rick Meyer.
05:14It was actually John Kitna who wore number three.
05:17What was mine?
05:18Or seven?
05:18I don't know.
05:19I thought he was three, too.
05:20I'm looking at the list of Cowboys who've won war number three, including Forever Niner, Brandon Cooks.
05:28Oh, that's a good call.
05:29And Billy Cundiff and somebody named Garrett Gilbert, John Kitna, Eddie Murray, the kicker, Mark Sanchez.
05:38Oh, boy.
05:39R.I.P. rest in purgatory, I guess?
05:42The fact that neither of you at any point in that conversation have brought up what I'm looking up right
05:47now,
05:47which is that Rick Meyer never played for the Cowboys.
05:49No, I was talking about college.
05:51I understand that.
05:52I didn't know why Gibbs brought him up.
05:53I was thinking about John Kitna.
05:55I mean, I was thinking about another highly touted.
05:59How about Rick Meyer?
06:01I think Trey Lance was number four for you guys, right?
06:05Yeah, I think he might have been singled in his, but.
06:07Where's he now?
06:08Trey Lance?
06:09Chargers.
06:10Chargers, yeah.
06:10Oh, yeah.
06:11Lucky him.
06:12I guess so.
06:13The Charger fan doesn't even know that he's on the Chargers.
06:16Yeah.
06:16I don't know if you noticed.
06:17There's not a lot to watch with that team lately.
06:19Well, they went to their backup three weeks ago, and it wasn't Trey.
06:22So are you sure he's still on the team?
06:24I'm pretty sure.
06:26I thought.
06:26That was his last stop.
06:27I know he was there last year.
06:29I don't know if he still is.
06:31All right.
06:32But, look, are you guys like good that you're not giving Dallas any shot in this game?
06:37The pick will be in coming up in about three hours, but I do think that there's a lot of,
06:41like, you know, hand wringing and pulling out of the hair and, oh, the Niners corners and
06:46this and that.
06:47I do think when you look at the biggest thing for me is the coaching matchup and Kyle Shanahan and
06:53stuff has been able to scheme up their offense to be good against anybody.
06:56And they've been really good against bad defensive teams.
06:59So I'm not super worried about this game, other than, of course, the turnover factor can always swing any game.
07:05But I would say it's going to be mostly a shootout.
07:09But I do like the Niners chances.
07:10Macro, micro.
07:11Like, OK, who in the room is still in a survivor pool?
07:16Yeah, not me.
07:17OK, so that's my point.
07:19I lost all three on the same team.
07:20There's no such thing as just like blow it off.
07:23They're going to win this game.
07:24But like that doesn't that's not I don't think that exists.
07:27And the Cowboys, whatever you think about them, they are not one of the worst teams.
07:32No, I got you.
07:33I got you.
07:33It's not like the Dolphins.
07:35I got you.
07:35They have talent, Mark.
07:37That makes it worse.
07:38One of the worst defenses in the NFL.
07:39No, they got talent on defense, but the numbers say what they say.
07:42So they've been improving on defense.
07:44They're dangerous for sure.
07:46And they're at home.
07:47Quinn and Williams.
07:48And I think it's fair.
07:50Look, when you look at the 49ers right now, which is the side of the ball that makes you
07:54more nervous?
07:56And we don't even know what the status of the cornerbacks are.
08:01Like, we'll see how this all plays out.
08:03Yeah.
08:03But, no, I could see the Cowboys putting up a number in this game for sure.
08:10For sure.
08:11So, yeah, healthy respect for the outcome.
08:14Let's put it that way.
08:14And Evan brought up real quick urgency.
08:16The Niners are playing for the number one seed.
08:19Dallas playing for their season with the Giants losing last night.
08:22So it's the NFL.
08:23You get up, you show up, you play.
08:24But, I mean, the showdown for the Niners not to overlook Dallas.
08:27And then in my calculus, I'm like, okay, but nah, good coach teams, pros like the Niners
08:32are, I don't see them slip up after you had the stinker in Atlanta.
08:37I hope so.
08:38I don't feel like two out of three weeks, even though you had to buy, they'll slip up.
08:43I don't think that was a stinker in Atlanta.
08:45I think it was a bad spot.
08:46And the one thing that makes me pause a little bit here is this is kind of a look-ahead
08:50spot
08:51because you're going to Colorado Springs, then you're going to Mexico City to take on
08:55Minnesota.
08:55And so you could look at that game and say, this might be for the number one seed, even
09:00though it probably won't be.
09:01It's a little bit of a weird travel spot where you go from Dallas to Colorado to Mexico City.
09:06So it's a two-game road trip with three cities.
09:09And I think Kyle already talked about the fact that it's different in that you're going to
09:13pack for one place, Dallas, and you're also packing for Colorado Springs and you're
09:19packing for Mexico City.
09:20So it's a little bit of a funky road spot.
09:22But I was worried about this back in June when I thought Dallas would be really good,
09:27but they're not really good.
09:29So that, to me, mitigates a little bit of the spot.
09:31I also was listening, and I think it was Trent Williams, but one of the veterans this week
09:35was talking about, and yeah, it was Trent.
09:38Trent Williams was talking about how this locker room, and I know everybody loves to make fun
09:43of the age on the offense, but for them, it has created a season-long urgency, if you
09:50will, because I think that they understand, you know, we can debate the window with the
09:55Niners or whatever, but there's a group of guys that once you get to seven and one at
10:00the halfway point of the season are keenly aware this is obviously their best chance
10:08remaining to actually get that ring.
10:11So that's Trent, and that's George, and that's Juice, and we can keep going.
10:15Probably McCaffrey as well.
10:17So I would hope that that brings a high level of urgency every single time they suit up.
10:22I mean, I think there is, but also the guys that aren't there, and what, what you were,
10:26and you texted Guthis, right, that Mike Evans or Kyle Shanahan said if it was a playoff
10:30game, he'd probably play.
10:31Yep.
10:31Yep.
10:32So that's not a playoff game.
10:33So he's not going to play, which is the smart thing to do.
10:36But he's close.
10:36Yeah, I mean, say if Dubo Samuel's not out there on Sunday, he might be, but I would
10:41imagine it's because there's not as much urgency as there would be for a game in four
10:45or five weeks when you could concretely go get the one seed.
10:50I mean, everything is a cost-benefit analysis, right?
10:53And so they're looking at it at this point, and it's not that they don't care as much
10:56about this game, but the goal is to have him for the lengthiest period of time that
11:02you can and for that to be at the end.
11:04Like Kyle said one thing in that interview that I thought was really positive, and then
11:09there was one sentence he said where I was kind of wished that I could have followed up
11:14because I was like, whoa.
11:15Give it to us.
11:16Well, he said he's real close, but then he said the goal is in managing this thing is
11:22that when we bring him back is not to have him go out again.
11:27That's what Evan said.
11:27You want to have him come back and then have it last for a little while.
11:31And I was like, what's a little while?
11:34So I wanted to know, is this injury the type of thing where you could not count on six games
11:42in a row?
11:43Could you not count on, you know what I mean?
11:46No doubt.
11:47And so I think that's what they're playing with right now, and it's obviously tricky.
11:51Yeah, you said the team in Dallas, Dibs, is disappointing, and it is, and you only get
11:56disappointed when there are expectations, and this is just me being selfish.
12:00I sounded kind of soft during the week.
12:02They got a bunch of number one picks on that offensive line.
12:05That was supposed to be the strength of their team, and this is why I was soft.
12:09Evan didn't use the word, but he alluded to it because I know it was Bosa's first game
12:14back, Defoe's first game, but I wanted them as a unit to be more disruptive.
12:18I know they got the pressures, and you can give me the analytics.
12:22It looked more than what you saw, Goo, but I'm just wondering, as easy as I think of a
12:27game this is going to be for the Niners, are they going to be more?
12:30You called it a bye week.
12:31Yeah, are they?
12:31I kind of laid off on that.
12:33Yeah, I kind of retired that.
12:34I mean, you called it a bye week, and now you're in the jersey, so.
12:36I want to see the D line be disruptive, but I know this offensive line for Dallas is no
12:44Rudy Poots on a good day, so I'm eager to see that.
12:48There's so many facets to this battle, but are we going to see Bosa dominate or, you
12:53know, the whole line eat?
12:57Injury designations have been released.
12:59Would you like to hear them?
12:59Let's go.
13:00Okay.
13:00Mike Evans is out.
13:01Pretty much knew that.
13:03He is the only one right now listed as out, so I consider this good news.
13:07Renardo Green and Diomedo Lenore, along with Dre Greenlaw, Trent Williams, CJ West, Upton
13:14Stout, and Nate Hobbs, who hasn't played yet this year, but has been activated off IR.
13:19All of them are listed as questionable.
13:21Full, cleared to play, no designation, Debo Samuel.
13:26Wow.
13:27So your wide receiver's home.
13:28Yeah, and like, so what do you have this weekend?
13:31You got Debo, you got Demarcus Robinson, you got Keenan Allen, Jordan Watkins.
13:36I guess you're still going to have Jacob Cowling returning punts.
13:39And you probably have Cooks as well.
13:41Will you?
13:42That's six receivers.
13:43And we've talked about this.
13:44Like, in the opener in Australia, you had six up, and of the six up, one of them was
13:48Cowling, and so I think that you'd rather have Cooks as a receiver and Cowling as a punt
13:53returner, because you kind of have to.
13:54And so I do think in this game, especially with, you know, you've got, you know, Keenan
13:59Allen probably not ready to go every single snap.
14:02We'll see.
14:03Yeah.
14:04That'll be an interesting one to watch for Sunday morning.
14:06And what's also interesting to me as we look at the game now in view of last night, if
14:11you're Dallas and you're four and five, well, the Giants lost.
14:14And so if you win this game, and think about Dallas, you've got the Titans.
14:18Next week.
14:19So if you're Dallas, you think, okay, if we can somehow pull this one off, we've got
14:23the Titans, then we've got the Eagles on a short week, then our bye.
14:27And so if you could stack three in a row, and you could sit back and see what else happens
14:31in the division, you feel like you're not out of it based on last night.
14:35You're listening to 95.7, the game, KGMZ, FMN, HD1, San Francisco, and Odyssey, and Odyssey,
14:42and Odyssey Sports Station, always live on the free Odyssey app, and now broadcasting
14:45from the Laughing Monk Studios.
14:47All right, it's time for what's bugging you.
14:49Bed bugs, they spread easily.
14:51Oh, God.
14:51Yep.
14:53And are difficult to eliminate without professional treatment.
14:55Atco Pest Control removes infestations thoroughly.
14:58Visit atcopest.com.
15:00Mention you heard about Atco and what's bugging you, and get 10% off bed bug services this month
15:05while I put on my rented lips.
15:06Does anybody else want to go first?
15:08I think my partner does.
15:09I'd love to.
15:10I actually have a very fun story, and the only thing that is bugging me about it is
15:15that I was not there to see it live and experience it and congratulate one of my new friends.
15:20So I'm going to shout out a gentleman named Fu Trong.
15:24You guys know I was in Vegas last week, and what we were doing there, a little bit of a
15:29unique
15:29situation.
15:30Lovely Christy, my wife, actually has four college roommates, all men.
15:35One, it's not normal, I think, for couples to send one of them off to Vegas with four
15:40members of the opposite sex on a weekend 30 years after college or whatever.
15:45A, that's how we roll, but B, I got the opportunity to go as well.
15:49So first off, awesome that I have some new friends.
15:53We had a great time out there, and this radio station and this show had one little tiny piece
16:00of how this reunion all came together because some of these gentlemen are listeners to 95.7
16:06the game and for a few years kept hearing the reference to the lovely Christy without having
16:12any idea that it was their Christy, their former roommate.
16:16So this was part of the discussion that brought them all back together, and off we went.
16:20And there were drinks, there was food, there was gambling, there was awesome.
16:24So shout out also to Ryan, Kent, and RT who were out there.
16:28But Foo, he's kind of the lead dog, you know what I mean?
16:31Like he's going to take care of everybody out there.
16:34Been to Vegas before, I think, more than once.
16:36So anyway, we do do our thing, and then I got to leave early on Sunday to get back for
16:41my show on Sunday night.
16:44Then they all do their thing.
16:46They watch the Niner Raider game out there in Vegas.
16:49Again, more drinks.
16:50So then people start kind of going separate ways because either people have flights or naps
16:55or whatever is happening.
16:56Bottom line is, on Monday morning, there's a picture that gets sent to the group thread
17:01from Foo.
17:02And it's just him kind of with pods, palms up next to a slot machine.
17:08And it's just like, if you glance at it, you're like, it's Foo just being like, what's up?
17:12I'm at the slot machine.
17:13So I saw the picture, and I'm just like, cool, there's Foo at the slot machine.
17:17Well, I come to find out later, they're like, no, dude, like, scroll in.
17:22Like, get closer.
17:24So, you know, spread the picture open a little bit and zoom in on the video poker slot.
17:29And it is showing a royal flush.
17:33And it is a $25 poker slot.
17:39So what's bugging me is that I did not get there to dap up Foo on his way out of
17:44Vegas
17:44because he left with $104,000.
17:50Wow.
17:51And he, it's awesome because, again, he kind of took care of everybody the whole trip.
17:57Right.
17:57It's the kind of guy he is.
17:58So shout out to Foo, my new friend.
18:00And don't spend it all in one place.
18:03Good on you.
18:03And I wonder what Foo tipped out because when you hit that, you don't get $100,000 right there.
18:09You have to go to the cage and fill out tax documents.
18:12But there's somebody who comes over and says, oh, congratulations.
18:15And so normally you would tip them out even though they're not peeling you off whenever you need to be
18:20peeled.
18:21I wonder what Foo did for the people.
18:23I'm sure he was super generous.
18:25Oh, he's a very generous guy.
18:27Well, there's no doubt.
18:27But you don't have to do that, right?
18:29You don't.
18:31I'm not a slot guy, so I don't even know.
18:33Like, if there's no dealer there, I have to be straight with you.
18:37Evan, I ain't giving that to nobody.
18:38My thought would be like, well, you did was walk over here.
18:40What the hell do you do?
18:41Right.
18:42You're not a good gig.
18:43There's a sense of, like, you know, the ethos.
18:45And, for example, I hit, like, a $1,200, like, video poker scene thing playing quarters.
18:50And so it's like the thing goes off and they send an alert to the people to come over and
18:55give you the money.
18:56And so they're giving you money.
18:57And so you want to tip them out because, you know, they're just people who are out there grinding for
19:02$17 an hour.
19:03And when something like that happens, some people, I mean, sometimes you'll tip the person who's sitting next to you
19:08just because their machine didn't go off.
19:10Right.
19:10I don't know, though.
19:11Now, that is what's really bugging you, the fact that you could not partake in the rest of the partying
19:16because Foo was going to pick up the whole tab.
19:18Well, no, there was no tab.
19:20Like, he was on his way to the airport.
19:22Oh, wow.
19:22It was the end of the weekend.
19:24I believe him.
19:25It's the best way to do it, by the way.
19:27If anybody knows, the best time to win in Vegas is when you've got to go.
19:32Yep.
19:33I'm the king of your win and then you give it all back and some.
19:36Exactly.
19:37When there's no problem, you're like, I'd love to give this back, but I got a flight to catch.
19:42I always go to blackjack craps.
19:44I just look at, not that they're peons.
19:46I'm like, what are they doing?
19:47The little cute slots tap you on the head.
19:50They ain't winning nothing.
19:51A hundred and seven.
19:53Well, it's actually where I find them to be not as fun as playing with other, you know what I
19:59mean?
19:59Like, craps when the whole table's gone.
20:01Am I licking at you?
20:02But it is where the, if you've got the patience for it, if you're in the right spot at the
20:06right time, that's where it pays.
20:08Yeah.
20:08You're not winning 104 racks at the blackjack table.
20:11Well, and everyone's different.
20:11Last time I went to Vegas, there was a guy who was betting $100 craps by himself.
20:16Oh, come on.
20:16And he was betting the don't pass, which means he's hoping he craps out.
20:20Yeah.
20:20So he's angrily grabbing the dice and screaming, seven out, seven out, seven out.
20:25And I'm watching this guy like, oh, my God, like the amount of self-hatred in your world.
20:31And he won a couple because he lost.
20:33And then he lost a couple because he won.
20:35I was fascinated by this.
20:37Don't pass on.
20:38The dope man.
20:39That'll someday show up on another what's bugging you.
20:41I don't like those people.
20:43Now, if he's playing by himself.
20:44The haters.
20:45If he's playing by himself, that's fine.
20:47But if you got 11 people around the table and you show up to root against them, dude, GTFOH, what
20:54are you doing over here?
20:56What's bugging me, talked about it a little bit before the break with Gu, it's not sports debates, but where
21:04and when sports debates take place.
21:06So last night I'm at a concert at Oakland and one of my buddies I go with, his friend, is
21:14wearing a Max Crosby jersey.
21:15Who did you see?
21:16This guy named Isaiah Rashad.
21:17Okay.
21:18He's from Chattanooga, Tennessee, Top Dog Entertainment.
21:21You got to Google it.
21:22Boom.
21:22So he goes deep, Evan.
21:24So we're sitting there and this guy has a Crosby jersey on and this guy, I can see from the
21:29side as during the performance is going on, it's kind of eyeing him.
21:33And he's, I'm like, why is he looking at this jersey?
21:35So about five minutes go by of him eyeing number 98.
21:39And finally he, during the middle of the concert, walks up to him and says, hey, that's a nice jersey.
21:45And he's like, yeah, no, thanks, man.
21:46Appreciate it.
21:47I'm a Raiders fan.
21:48Boom.
21:49That's all there needs to be.
21:50Compliment.
21:51We're back to the show.
21:52Listen to the guy perform.
21:52He goes on to a 10 to 15 minute rant with, was obviously the other guy interjecting at times about
22:03how the Raiders are bad or the Raiders stink or the Raiders this, that, and the other.
22:09And whether you believe it or don't want to drive like maniacs, you bug.
22:12Wow.
22:14And Dave's profile, I'm like, I could tell you were speeding.
22:17I'll be one of them in about a half an hour.
22:19There was one guy with a Nevada plate.
22:20And Dave rolled down the window and yelled that at them as they were on their phone calling the police.
22:25It's funny because I have, I have a golf ball in my car and I'm so tempted to take that
22:30golf ball out and like rifle it into their window.
22:33But I don't.
22:34And today, like Captain Nevada license plate, you passed me on the shoulder as we're on the on-ramp because
22:40you had to just get in front of me and then swerve, swerve, swerve.
22:43And he probably crashed.
22:44Wow.
22:46All right.
22:46I hope he didn't.
22:47Ray will be back on Sunday.
22:49Yeah.
22:49I'm glad the Niners are on the run.
22:51Yeah.
22:51Well, I'll go.
22:52Pretty can't throw a wet ball.
22:53So I have a history of working in a corporate environment.
22:56Never been to prison, but I've been infatuated with prison shows like us.
22:59You know, things like that, escape from Alcatraz.
23:02And what I learned is take a walk around and learn your coworkers or whatnot.
23:06And what's bugging me is my heavy heart because you guys are OK.
23:10But I got one special relationship and it's with Sarah Clark, one half of Sarah and Vinny.
23:15Amen.
23:15And I'm coming in today and I find out she makes her announcement after 30 years on the mic with
23:21her partner, Sarah and Vinny, that at the end of this calendar year, she's going to hang them up.
23:27And I just want to say thank you because unlike you guys, she's not moody.
23:31And we had a special bond.
23:34We have a special bond.
23:37To shout my girl out, you know, Evan has his moment, Stiney has his.
23:41But every time I saw her, it was just a smile.
23:43That's how I was doing.
23:45I do the same.
23:46So I just want to shout out Sarah for her run.
23:49Shout out Alice.
23:51And then, again, just the fact that I'm so real and emotional.
23:54I got a heavy heart with that announcement.
23:56She's happy.
23:57But I'm going to miss seeing her around.
23:59Yeah, me too.
24:00Yeah.
24:00That's what's bugging me.
24:01Sarah Clark leaving.
24:03I know she's happy, but I'm being selfishly.
24:06It's bugging me.
24:07That was my first career setback.
24:09I was working at KCBS and they had an opening for a producer.
24:13And so I sat down and had a meeting with her and Vinny.
24:15And this is 1998.
24:17And I got the, yeah, we'll get back to you.
24:20And they hired a guy named Hooman who wound up doing it for like 23 or 24 years.
24:25And so your boy, I thought I had it inside.
24:28Do you ever bring that up to her?
24:30Always.
24:31And she knows.
24:31And I love her.
24:32And I told her actually when I found out about the announcement about eight weeks ago,
24:36because we're that close.
24:38I said, no, unacceptable.
24:39Like, no, you don't get to retire.
24:42Like, you don't get to.
24:44It's an end of an era.
24:4530 years.
24:45No, it's an end of an era.
24:46I hate when an era is end.
24:47I know.
24:48I know.
24:48But, like, I'm so happy that she's going to sleep.
24:52Well, that's awesome.
24:53I know it's a wonderful, wonderful, iconic radio profile that the two of them have built.
25:01It's incredible.
25:01If you have any idea what it takes to do morning radio for 30 years, I'm telling you,
25:09the grind that these two have been through and whatnot.
25:12So, I'm like, yes.
25:13They've grown old together.
25:15We all lose out.
25:18But she wins.
25:19She gets to the finish line.
25:21She's an icon.
25:22He's one of a kind.
25:23And that's what I texted her.
25:24I'm like, get some bleep and sleep.
25:27You've earned it.
25:28Unbelievable.
25:29Last time the Niners won a Super Bowl.
25:31So, I was going to, you know.
25:33There you go.
25:34Wow, look at Evan.
25:3530 years ago.
25:36They win.
25:37I like what you're doing here.
25:38By the way, Goo.
25:39Uh-oh.
25:40You only see her on the way out.
25:41No, see, that's the whole thing.
25:43That's why she's so happy.
25:44You don't have guru analytics.
25:46You don't know when I'm going to the restroom or coming back.
25:49People just think they know what you do.
25:51Man, I run into her a lot.
25:53Come on now.
25:53Dude, 30 years in the morning.
25:55Because you did, like, at least 10, if not.
25:58Uh, yeah, probably close.
26:00Will, this is what I don't get.
26:01I was damn near 20.
26:02It's exhausting.
26:03I tape a lot of shows.
26:05I'm telling you, sports shows.
26:07And they, I don't remember you on Sports Nation.
26:10And I, like, help me find it.
26:12But you would fill in, though.
26:14It was, like, five or six episodes.
26:16Yeah, like, you're not going to find those.
26:19I want to watch it.
26:21I didn't have a residency or anything like that.
26:23I jumped in there with Carissa Thompson a few times.
26:26Oh, come on, Marty.
26:27We did what we did.
26:28And then, and then, and then that was the end of that.
26:31That's pretty good.
26:31I figured out why Guru's so damn positive.
26:33Dude, middays.
26:35I was just going to ask.
26:36I've been working middays.
26:37So I'm looking at the Joe's this morning.
26:40For, like, four months.
26:41Look at you.
26:41The Joe's this morning.
26:43You're telling me, because you did that shift.
26:45I have no idea.
26:46I feel, Phil did it.
26:47That was cute.
26:48A couple days, man.
26:49I don't want that.
26:50But that's a rough terrain, huh?
26:52Alarm goes off at 342.
26:54And when my son was four, Quest, who's now 25, I would come down the stairs, and he'd
26:59be waking up in the middle of the night to come sleep in Mommy's bed.
27:03We would pass each other on the stairs, and I'd say, you little mother jumper.
27:07And he'd be like, bye, Dad.
27:08I'm getting the warm spot.
27:10So, yeah, 342.
27:11What I remember about those days.
27:12Shout out to the Joe's, man.
27:14Yeah, seriously.
27:15The involuntary nap.
27:18That would be the name of my fantasy team if I was still in the morning show.
27:22And you don't even know what's on cover.
27:23The involuntary nappers.
27:25Wow.
27:25I would go home, get a bite to eat, and then the next thing you know, you'd wake up in
27:28a sweat on the couch at 3 in the afternoon with no clue what the hell just happened.
27:33Wow.
27:34You get to the cafeteria at 10.15, and you still get that involuntary nap.
27:38Yeah, can't today.
27:39Can't today.
27:41In all seriousness, no, congratulations to Sarah.
27:4430 years is not, I mean, half of us can't even imagine doing half of what that is.
27:49So, congratulations, and you got Will and Dibs coming up next on 95.7 The Game.
27:53Woo!
