Transcription

Chapter 1: Why did ChatGPT struggle with identifying the current Pope?

0.031 - 17.21 Boomer Esiason

Yeah, I was arguing with ChatGPT. Yeah, apparently ChatGPT's got a lot of issues. Right, so you guys were talking about the Pope hat and Pope Leo and everything, and I know it's Pope Leo XIV, so I want to do a little background on Pope Leo XIV because you and I got a text message. Did you see that? I actually did not, no.

Chapter 2: What is the significance of Pope Leo XIV in the conversation?

17.531 - 40.632 Boomer Esiason

And I don't know if it's true or not, but I wanted to do a little background. So I put in Pope Leo XIV and it comes back, and there is no Pope Leo XIV. And I'm like, what are you talking about? And then I have to say, no, you're wrong. There is. And he's the current pope. And then I asked Chet GPT, who is the current pope? And they came back with Pope Francis, who died in 2025.

And I'm arguing with the damn app, you know, and I'm like, all right, let's clear it up. Oh, currently now there is a Pope Francis. I think I told it. Well, Pope Leo. I mean, Pope Leo. Yeah. And so he comes all the way back, and he obviously went to Villanova. You and I received a text from somebody. Yeah, I just looked at it, yeah. I don't know if that's true or not. Do you think it is?

63.627 - 94.5 Gio

I think it is. I mean, this guy, so basically... Bob Gelb, who works here, who's had a very long life filled with very surprising things. He used to open for Bob Saget by juggling, and he almost set himself on fire with Bob Saget. But he said, the Pope played left wing on my floor hockey team at Villanova. And I believe him. So... Yeah.

94.88 - 96.642 Boomer Esiason

That is just amazing.

Chapter 3: How did the hosts react to ChatGPT's responses about the Pope?

96.662 - 99.304 Boomer Esiason

What do you think these popes do? I don't know.

0

99.725 - 102.307 Gio

Before they're the pope, they don't live? They're just hanging around?

0

102.347 - 114.459 Boomer Esiason

They do. I had no idea that Pope Leo played floor hockey. Yeah, I mean. I think that's awesome. See, people do like hockey. The pope. And the pope loves hockey. And he loves baseball more. And he loves his White Sox.

114.939 - 137.652 Gio

Yeah, I don't know. Is he a Blackhawks fan? I have no idea. You would think. But, yeah, I mean, that story, when Bob Saget came in here, and RIP Bob Saget, but when he came in here and then recognized Bob Gelb, oh, my God. Because I think he like set, I don't know, I forget what it was, but he was juggling bowling pins or something or stuff that was on fire.

137.732 - 160.151 Gio

And then like the ceiling caught on fire. Or he himself caught on fire. He hit himself in the head with a bowling pin or something. And Bob Saget remembered it from like 50 years ago. He's like, get out of here, Bobby. Do you think that if we took Gelb to the Vatican that Pope Leo would remember him? No, I do not.

160.231 - 174.458 Gio

It would be amazing if he did, but there's no way that he's going to remember Bob Gelb from his floor hockey team. You went to college. I went to college. I remember most of my college experiences. You know how many people the Pope meets? The Pope met Tony Hooks.

Chapter 4: What unique story does Bob Gelb share about the Pope?

175.52 - 179.888 Boomer Esiason

It's a process. Let's go to Bob Gelb on line one here. Hey, Bobby, what's happening?

0

180.813 - 182.175 Bob Gelb

Hey, Boom. How you guys doing?

0

182.195 - 193.188 Boomer Esiason

Gene, what's up? What's up? All right, so you sent us this text this morning that Pope Leo was the left wing, and you put that in parentheses, ha, ha, ha, that he's the left wing on your floor hockey team. Is that true?

0

194.269 - 205.102 Bob Gelb

Pope was a heck of a player, man. Great defensive two-way player. Didn't like being in the penalty box too much. A confessional was a problem. But, yeah, Pope was a heck of a player back in Nova.

0

206.003 - 209.267 Gio

Wow. You actually were on the floor with him at the same time?

210.648 - 216.857 Bob Gelb

Oh, Pope had my back. I mean, you know, Pope went into the corners. Pope really was a good two-way player.

217.698 - 243.049 Boomer Esiason

Listen, stop being a jackass and just confirm that what you're telling us is the truth. What do you think? I say no. Absolutely not. All right, goodbye. It was so believable, you know? I mean, that's what I want to have him on. I want to confirm this. There's no way. He starts with the two-way guy, this, that. He's got my back. Shut up.

243.609 - 244.991 Gio

Yeah. I mean.

245.551 - 246.472 Boomer Esiason

Did he go to Villanova?
