Welcome in What's Right with Nick Wright episode 478. This episode of What's Right with Nick Wright is presented to you by Boost Mobile. And today is a good example. That's why we ask you guys to subscribe to the show because sometimes we were on different schedules. We've been on a different schedule because of the World Cup. For the last five weeks, and this is an even different, more different schedule than normal, because today's Monday, we don't always do Monday shows, however, I am not, not only am I not going to counter-program the semifinals of the World Cup, I'm not going to be doing anything during the semifinals of the World Cup other than watching the semifinals of the World Cup, and...
So because of that, we are on the air today. That also means, however, Demanze is not here with us today because A, he had other work obligations because it's Monday and B, it's his birthday. So I decided to give him the day off. So happy birthday to Demanze. Also, if you're watching on YouTube, you might see Nick's wearing a Jay-Z concert t-shirt. He is, I am. And yes, the one I went to was last night, a concert that was supposed to end around 11 and instead started around 1230, thanks to... I am gobsmacked at how I understand people ended up bum rushing the entrance and that made things all screwed up at Yankee Stadium late Sunday night. But things were really screwed up well before that happened as far as getting into that concert.
And I don't understand how or why still. A, Friday and Saturday went off pretty easily. And B, there was not more people there than go to a sold-out Yankee game. And so they have the experience on how to get all those folks in. Everybody got in Friday and Saturday with no problem. But if you guys read anything on social media or saw any of the videos, it is about what it looked like, which is getting in there last night was... A bit of a debacle. And because of that, the concert was hours delayed.
Why is Nick so obsessed with this World Cup and how has it changed his schedule?
And because of that, your old buddy Nick Wright is operating on about 90 minutes sleep. But such is life. Tried to be, you know, cool dad. Took my wife and daughters to the Jay-Z concert. And then it was, you know, 2.30 in the morning. The concert was still going. But we pushed forward. So there's a lot to do today. And the majority of today's show will be World Cup stuff. However, Kawhi Leonard's trade is on hold. Some small LeBron developments. All of those things we will get to. At least I think we will get to late in the show. Also, just a couple quick programming notes. Again, Tuesday and Wednesday, no show. And then Thursday, we will be back on early in the mornings. And then... Pretty regular schedule the next couple weeks.
And then we're going to take a bit of a summer vacation at the end of July and at the end of August. And then, my God, we're into football. The amazing thing about this World Cup, among other things, is it has really given us no sports lull. Like today, there's the Home Run Derby in Washington. Not much else. And here in about a week, we will hit a sports lull. But again, that's only going to last like six weeks before actual college and pro football is here. And this tournament just keeps delivering. And I just got a text from somebody saying, i'm curious you know i can't respond to it because i just got it literally right when we started asked i think they've been watching the show and they asked me how into soccer i was before this tournament and as i told you guys
I think I follow international soccer much more than just the average American, even much more so than the average American sports fan. But it's not one of my two favorite sports. It's probably not one of my three favorite sports, but it's definitely not one of my two favorite sports. But I have just been enraptured by this tournament. And I... This was the thing that I... I think I said I was going to... If I'm in reruns here and I've done this already, I apologize. I meant to talk about this two weeks ago. I will talk about it now, just briefly, before we get straight to voicemail brought to you by Boost Mobile.
