47.551 - 54.241 Bradfo

Well, no. I mean, I probably said it to you back in 2017 maybe without knowing. Now you just say it to everybody.

55.663 - 57.906 Joe Kelly

Now it's like the go-to opening.

Chapter 2: What is Joe's perspective on Tyler Austin's return to the U.S.?

58.146 - 82.23 Bradfo

As Tori said, and he's right, it makes people feel like that you're the only person in the room. Like I sit down with a guy in the dugout, Joe, who I've never met before ever. Who is it? No, I'm just saying. I'm giving an example. Like I go to the park. I walk in the clubhouse. I say, oh, that guy's there. I look at the Wikipedia page. What might be interesting about him?

0

82.25 - 93.208 Bradfo

Hey, you got a few minutes in the dugout. Boom. They're expecting me just to be like going down a list of questions. No, we're become best friends right away.

0

95.092 - 97.115 Joe Kelly

By telling him that they're the only person in the world.

Chapter 3: What does the pitcher proclaim about his future in baseball?

97.135 - 103.218 Bradfo

Yes, it works. 110% of the time. Right?

0

103.478 - 113.855 Joe Kelly

That's like a good pickup line. It's just a good pickup line. Why didn't you tell me that? For young men playing baseball. Why didn't you tell me that? For young men to play baseball to come on your podcast.

0

114.476 - 127.958 Bradfo

Yeah, right. I mean, you should go to umpires. You said, there's nobody I'd rather have umpire in this game than you. There's no one I'd rather have behind the plate. Right?

0

137.401 - 138.805 Bradfo

Don't you feel better about yourself?

0

140.85 - 145.682 Joe Kelly

I don't know, because they know I'd be lying. What? They'd know I'd be lying if I said that to them.

0

146.827 - 170.342 Joe Kelly

no no but there's no chance that anyone would believe that coming out of my mouth for anything i don't think my wife would believe that there's no one i'd rather be here with right now except for you you know i'm saying i don't think anybody in any circumstance would understand that those words would be true coming out of my mouth you there's no scenario where that wouldn't be true I don't know.

170.622 - 172.204 Joe Kelly

Pick one. I don't think so.

172.464 - 176.048 Bradfo

This podcast right now.

176.068 - 180.372 Joe Kelly

There's no other podcast. You're right. At this moment in time, I wouldn't do another fucking podcast.

Chapter 5: How do Joe and Bradfo discuss their podcasting dynamics?

180.913 - 182.214 Joe Kelly

What time? 10 my time?

0

185.178 - 211.586 Bradfo

First of all, you make it seem like it's like 6 in the morning. It's 10 in the morning your time. Also, when Tory said that, I said immediately responded, well, Tory, let me take you behind the curtain. Normally that would be true, except that Joe just canceled on me for the 50th time. Is that yesterday? I love that. It was, it was like, no, it was two days. It was the first time.

0

211.606 - 221.335 Bradfo

It was literally in the middle of this podcast with Lovello. And it's like, Oh, sorry. I can't do it, dude. No. Then yesterday.

0

Chapter 6: What humorous stories do they share about their personal lives?

221.375 - 224.678 Bradfo

No. Yesterday was, I was sitting in this chair ready to go.

0

224.698 - 226.52 Joe Kelly

I thought it was yesterday. That'd been funny.

0

226.54 - 227.6 Bradfo

Yeah. Yeah.

0

227.901 - 235.467 Joe Kelly

Wow. Anyway, what's going on with you? Shoot. Just trying to get ready for Christmas.

0

236.147 - 236.828 Bradfo

Okay.

236.848 - 239.811 Joe Kelly

I don't think that ever is a done deal, is it?

240.953 - 246.119 Bradfo

Well, you've made it very well documented that you don't hire people, that you only do it yourself.

246.659 - 250.063 Joe Kelly

Oh, dude. I'm tired of the hiring of people.

Chapter 7: How do they define the concept of 'retirement' for athletes?

250.183 - 281.869 Joe Kelly

Although it's creating jobs, but I live like one, two, One, two, three, four. I think I live four streets, which is, like, half a mile above this street called Thoroughbred. And it's, like, Google it. It's pretty crazy. But anyways, it's in Ataloma, right? If you get off the freeway and wait for these lights, it says from this point, like, I think it says two hours from this point.

0

281.909 - 306.636 Joe Kelly

And that's not even, like... where people start getting back up the line. So it's a long line for Christmas lights, right? But I live all the way above it. And I would say it's probably like a hundred houses that go back and forth that have like all the lights. But they start after Thanksgiving and I saw probably like 90% of them, obviously hiring people, right? But I saw this one couple,

0

307.291 - 329.873 Joe Kelly

and me and my wife like to call it's like christmas throw up when it's like random i don't i don't really necessarily like christmas houses even if you have a lot of lights without like a theme you know what i mean like so it'd be like a grinch here a mickey mouse there um i don't know like a bart simpson so it's like not even all disney themed it's just random and then like a pittsburgh steelers blow up but anyways i told him

0

Chapter 8: What are the details of the upcoming 'best shape of my life' campaign?

330.916 - 353.764 Joe Kelly

I would obviously tell them that I think their lights suck, even though they have a lot. But I was like, hey, I like your lights. I lied to them. I was like, I love your lights. You guys did a good job. Because they put them up themselves. I saw them. I drive my golf cart. I saw them put them up for maybe seven, eight, eight days straight. Every single day they go out there. Husband of my life.

0

354.725 - 363.17 Joe Kelly

New lights, new lights. So getting to the point of doing your own Christmas lights, like around me, no one does their own Christmas lights. Kind of pisses me off.

0

363.31 - 384.784 Bradfo

You said there's nobody I'd rather see put up Christmas lights. There is nobody I'd rather see put up Christmas lights than you. Do you think that of Major League Baseball players, your Christmas light game, your Christmas decoration game is the best thing?

0

386.013 - 387.455 Joe Kelly

The best that does it themselves, yes.

0

387.635 - 388.637 Bradfo

Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

388.977 - 414.826 Joe Kelly

Yeah, I mean, it's not the best because people fucking hire people. Yeah. But when it comes to creativity and time and attention to the little details, I'm zip-tying fucking shit through gates. You know what I mean? My attention to detail is impeccable. It's something where I get all my wife's friends and my son's moms will come over and be like, Oh, did you hire someone?

414.946 - 420.997 Joe Kelly

I'm like, no, I fucking did that. What do you mean to hire someone? That's a compliment. When you do so well, they're like, oh, did you hire someone?

422.94 - 453.999 Bradfo

So there you go. It's weird because we've talked about ADHD and stuff like that. It's weird how that works. My lights? No, just like your focus. You just plug them in. Your focus. I feel like there's a correlation between pitching in the playoffs and putting up Christmas lights is what I'm saying. Somebody's got to look into it. Somebody's got to do the stats. Is that what you went to school for?

454.059 - 456.562 Bradfo

Come on.
