Yeah, I've met a lot of cool people through doing this job. And then obviously my fiance being a standup comedian, I now, a lot of my friends are standup comedians. And it's just like an interesting,
group of people that I have a connection to from all these different places that I'm like why wouldn't I bring them in and talk to them about the stuff that I love with them in a unique way like Ken Jennings we're trying to get Ken Jennings because like obviously I met him doing Celebrity Jeopardy and I think it's fascinating that on Jeopardy
these really smart people always suck at sports categories. They just never have any sort of understanding about like the most basic sports questions. And I was like, what if we have Ken Jennings on and we ask him why he thinks that is and like what it is about sports categories and Jeopardy that like makes them not work as well. And then I was like, well, where else would that content come from?
And I don't know. So I made casuals so that we can talk about that kind of stuff.
That's nice of you. What was your question?
okay so what i've been saying to them is basically like um it's a sports podcast for people who don't listen to sports podcasts it's a sports podcast for somebody that's like yeah i know how sports work and i know them and i like maybe i played them when i was younger but like i don't keep up with them because i'm kind of bored with the way like it's not um
I'm making this for my sister-in-law, who I'll watch sports with when we're home for holidays, and we'll be watching the pregame show. And she's like, I'm sorry, can I put something else on until the game starts? They keep talking about the same four numbers, and none of those numbers matter to me.
And it's those people, the ones that are entertained by the sport, but the stuff around it, they're sort of like, yeah, I'm not... I'm not probably gambling on it. And I never thought I would go pro. So these numbers don't really matter to me. I just kind of would rather laugh. And we can laugh about the sport, but the laughing is sort of the important part.
And the main part of the pitch has been like, for whatever reason, sports is really siloed. So if you're listening to like an entertainment podcast or a pop culture podcast, it'll cover almost everything except sports. unless it's like a big sports story, like if Aaron Rodgers does something stupid, but they won't really touch on like, oh, and also we're in the divisional round of the playoffs.
And so I feel like people have a hard time getting just like basic level entertainment, sports content that isn't specifically sports content. You know what I mean? I feel like you're not bumping into it unless you're signing up for the other stuff. And so I want to give people just the like pop culture entertainment sports stuff. So you'll be aware of what's going on in the world of sports.
You'll be able to use it to your advantage small talk wise, because I think that's one of the best things about sports is you can just like talk to your door guy about their teams. It's just like a little connection you have with them. And then also, ladies, the men in your life, I feel like the emotional door to a lot of men is their sports teams.
It's just like where you guys are putting all your feelings.
The the Cut the TSA line meaning like how I would there be a riot if you jumped in the front of the line Well, it was so chaotic that the line like it was hard to tell where the line started So it was just one of those where it was like, oh, where do I go?
I would bet, I mean, I would bet Herbstreet.
yes but i i don't know who's missing like david pollock's not still around uh doing stuff off of off of the broadcasts is he i don't know no who's who's well the sideline's like molly so it's it wouldn't be molly she's too sweet also to answer your question that i skipped i've never skipped uh the tsa line i'll say i don't have tsa pre-check and also i have the thing where i pay them to let me skip the line called clear so i'm always skipping the line but it's like sanctioned in a sanctioned
The clear line was 90 minutes long. Oh, my God. I would just check. No.
That's how they got me. I was late for a flight at LAX and I was I ran in panicked. You know me. And and somebody was like, are you late for your flight and you want to skip the line?
and he was like it's gonna he's like walking me to the machine while talking and he goes gonna cost you whatever it is 100 bucks or whatever and i was like don't care fine let's do this
That's where we're headed on all things in the future. Everything. That's medicine, too. People are like, oh, I have a doctor come to my house, and it only costs. And I'm like, yeah, that's cost prohibitive to a lot of people. I don't think you can skip the medical line to get to your doctor. People are waiting to see a doctor. That doesn't feel good, I don't think. I don't think we should do that.
Katie, do you know anyone that spread their ashes at a sporting event? No. I don't know if I know anyone that spread, I mean, I guess I helped Dan spread his grandmother's ashes. Other than that, I don't. The wind is always a fascinating factor to me when it comes to spreading ashes. It's like you toss it, it comes right back in your face. Now you're eating your loved one.
