What humorous anecdotes are shared about Taco Bell?
I just pulled through the Taco Bell drive-thru, and I've got a couple of big, nasty Supreme Burritos right here waiting to be eaten. Sometimes, you know, you get the order, and they mess it up. You get home, and you open it. I go, what? They got the wrong thing in there. So it's on the menu. It's right there. It's easily understood. And you get a couple of those in you, and you're set for the day. And then you just kind of wonder where the wind's going to blow.
I can't. How is Kevin Harlan so in on every bit and sense of humor piece? He's the best. So thanks to Kevin Harlan. Thanks to Kevin Fishbane. We're sorry that Devin Hester couldn't make it. We hope to catch him soon. I mean, catch him metaphorically speaking, not physically speaking. That's humanly impossible. And thanks to everybody who was a part of this one. Thanks to Ray Diaz, Tyler Buterbaugh, Sean Sears. I see in the back helping out. Thanks to Brayden Fryer, Connor O'Donnell, Jacob Stutz, Max Curtis. We had such a great group today. Thanks to everybody who joined us as well on Twitch and on Twitter. And thanks to Adam Hogue and everybody who gave us their predictions before, uh, Before they had to.
I feel like we ran the prediction game today. And now we go live to Cubs Convention. Are you guys on a stage again at the Sheraton Grand Hotel?
How does Kevin Harlan's humor impact the discussion?
Lawrence Holmes and Matt Spiegel. Hey, guys.
No, we're not on a stage, but we're in like... I feel like this is a bar when we're not here, Speeds. Yeah, it is. It's definitely one. The same exact setup is a bar about 100 yards up. Gotcha. Right? It's the same thing. It could be anything, but right now it's us. You know what we're in, guys? The holding pattern? We're in the sweet spot where right now we are the biggest celebrities in this place. You're ridiculous. Like, in fact. Two hours, they're not going to care about us at all. You know what I mean? Like, oh, my God, is that Ron Coomer? Like, oh, my God, is that Ryan Dempster? And then all the players and everybody comes in. But right now they're like, yeah, I think that's Spiegel and Holmes. Can we have a picture?
We have nameplates so they know exactly who we are. Like kids begrudgingly getting their pictures taken with us and their parents behest when they genuinely don't care. That's my favorite part of this little sweet spot. I mean, I feel like we were expecting to be overshadowed by, of course, the Cubs players. We will be. But it's already happened. Alex Cohen just walked by. We're done. So that's it.
Our moment is gone. You guys are just lucky Gary Pressey isn't wandering around anymore because he used to take up all the attention. I remember there was a show. Yes.
Someone is playing the organ downstairs. That's John Benedict. It is John? That's John Benedict. Both John Benedict and Josh Langhoff, those are the two organists who replaced Gary. And they kind of alternate days. John Benedict, big listener and texter to the show.
Shout out.
What predictions are made for the upcoming Bears vs. Rams game?
Wants in on some of the musical frivolity. I've got to say hello to him. Yeah, he's a good man.
Frivolity.
Yeah, they're downstairs. It's also somehow it became old score day, too.
What unique atmosphere is described at the Cubs Convention?
Mike Alzamora was just here. Tim Bach just walked over. I mean, it is like it's just it's all happening. It's like old home week. It really is. How are you? How are you all? You sounded wonderful on our way in. You guys sound great.
Well, thanks. I mean, you know, I think they call it a convention what you guys are at, so I'm glad to see everybody convening.
Spiegel, I love the traffic that we have had in the hallways. Tell them, Brody. It's been pretty sick as well when you got Pat Hughes and Ron Coomer just staring at us and smiling and laughing while we're doing our show. They go by. There's Zach Zayman. Oh, Matt Forte. Oh, Matt Forte's here today. Is that Matt Forte? Matt Forte looking in our little studio here and smiling and pointing at us, which was cool.
Did he say, where speaks? Where speaks?
Also, we had a visitor come into the studio. One Lawrence Holmes came in and said hello and took a moment to acknowledge us.
It was beautiful. I did.
