Wow, that is a heavy one. I don't think he actually did. I don't think he did. I have no proof of that. Yeah. What I do know is that when I'm on TV with somebody, I just feel like there's a way to tell stories the right way, and there's a way to cover the athletes the right way.
And I didn't feel like at times, and I think there was like two instances when I was on first take with Paul, that he was – he was taking care of their stories the right way. And I wouldn't come to you and be like, we can disagree. I'm not gonna say Big Cat's a fraud. That's a strong term. I'm not gonna say that PFT is irrelevant.
Well, I first have to say I was not fired. Okay, not fired. I was laid off. Laid off, sorry.
And I am getting paid from ESPN while I'm off. That's awesome. The first reaction was why? All right, so you go through the process of why did this happen? Okay, let me look at performance. All right. They are saying it's not performance based. They put me on Monday Night Countdown. Bless me with that opportunity. I was very thankful to be on the show with Susie Culber, Steve Young.
You know, one of the great Susie's one of the greats as a host. We had Booger on the show, Adam Schefter. And that was an iconic crew.
I can give you the story about the bird. Yeah. But for me, it was more of a, they put me on here for a reason. I was a younger guy. Everyone else on the set was a little older. They wanted to hit the younger demographic, just like everyone is trying to do right now when it comes to content creation. And we accomplished that. The show was a success. Then we changed the show.
Now it's me, Ryan Clark, Scott Van Pelt, Marcus Spears. And you go on that show and the ratings stay the same, right? So then they bring Jason Kelsey in and it's like, well, we should be on this thing together, having a good time, two great personalities. I love Jason. I think he's a phenomenal dude. I know he's had some, you know, run-ins with some stuff here. We took his side.
Recently, but when you, when I looked at it from that point, it's like, okay, it's not performance based. They're telling me it's not performance based. And what is it about?
and i don't know that sucks but what i can do is i can sit here and i can twiddle my thumbs for three four months five months and try to figure out well why did this happen or i can just go move on and have fun enjoy the process we have the podcast out of pocket with rg3 and my wife is a co-host on that and we've had some great conversations with people and you guys are crushing it it feels like every other day you're sitting with someone some big you know name or whatever stories and it's like at the top and it's fun
You know what I mean? You sit down with Deion, Shalom Shadur, Dana White, sit down with Reggie Bush and talk about him getting his Heisman back. You know, we had a chance to sit down and have a conversation with a guy, Mike Norvell at Florida State.
When they're not doing very good right now.
I know you guys, you would rather do the interviews with the people who are having a good time. Yeah. As opposed to people who are going through some things. Yeah. And that was a it was a tough one to navigate. But it's been a fun process for for me. And I got some stuff in the works that's going to be coming up here in the next couple of weeks. And I'm blessed to be a part of those opportunities.
But you just don't want to sit on your hands and feel sorry for yourself. Yeah. Good for you.
Correct. And it's, you know, like legacy media as far as like the ESPNs, the Foxes, the NBCs, the CBSs, and then the new age media, Amazon and Netflix. Like I'm open and excited about all those opportunities, but I wasn't just going to sit at the house and be mad about something.
It's like they decided to go in a certain direction and you just find a way to be the best version of yourself that you can be.
that would have been nice or maybe it wouldn't i don't know it would bother me i think i think it would be nice i think everyone wants you want to know right when they tell you what it wasn't you're like oh yeah cool sweet no you're great everything was awesome and then it's like but what was it you you're big boy just be honest what was it right and you didn't i didn't get that answer and at this point like you know we're shoot what
four months past that yeah i'm not asking for the answer anymore i don't need it right i don't need it anymore it's like like you said we're thriving we're having a good time being able to connect with the fans in a different way that's great and then when we get back to legacy media like i'm not gonna lie to you the thing i miss most is calling games yeah yeah i mean i miss calling games yeah three hours to talk to the fans have a good time crack jokes educate them i miss that and i look forward to getting back to that whether it's college football uh nfl or both
What experience are you guys talking about?
Was it called Barstool Van Talk?
I'll answer that, and I'll get to that eagle, the Seahawk story. For me, when you do this, there's no...
