00:53roll through some quickly and some I think we might need a little more time
00:57a little more follow-up okay I want to know what that guy right yeah did you
01:01play sports in high school and if so which one I did play sports I played
01:04basketball and football all right no your best one neither at a varsity
01:08level though I did I would have played oh that's right I would have played
01:13varsity but I graduated high school a year early and so you're gifted and
01:17talented oh damn I guess yeah my sophomore year I decided I wanted to
01:21try and make something shake in the college level and that's or not
01:24sports-wise but like I was trying to do something specific and so that you know
01:30long story short I just decided okay if I graduate a year early I can I can get
01:34into that place and try and try and do what I'm trying to do so Mexican food
01:37Chinese food or Italian food you got to pick one Chinese food for me what you
01:42say I say it's out yeah yeah he said track by the way I did as your best
01:48sport so here's the thing I am Nigerian as you might be able to tell by the last
01:52name I did too long yeah announced fully properly yeah and when I was in middle
01:57school they were like you know trying to get everybody to everybody run track
02:00with it you were they were like oh you're African you run distance they
02:07didn't realize that uh the night Nigerians we're typically more on the
02:10sprinter side although to be fair I wasn't I wasn't the fastest so I can
02:14understand why they were like all right go ahead and let's see what this
02:16distance and that really ruined my love of running track I like what was the
02:21last thing you stole oh that's a good everybody's don't I had an answer to you
02:26did have an answer very complimentary oh well not any time recently but
02:32definitely these logins to okay okay what'd you say figgy I said a pin a pin
02:38like a good pin not just one that's lying around I'd be I'd be taking yeah
02:42there's a good pin I try and give him back for the most part but if it's like
02:45nobody's claiming this yeah I got that have you ever hooked up with a friend's
02:49ex I've not oh I was wrong on that I just figure if you went to college you
02:54probably did yeah go ahead and say that but no not that I know of I try I try
03:01and be loyal in that way Beyonce or Rihanna Beyonce I got that one although
03:05yeah yes country or classic rock if you have to pick between those two classic
03:11rock oh I was wrong on that I say country yeah I like a little bit of
03:15country but I acknowledge that I have a lot of blind spots in that way I'm gonna
03:19I'm gonna skip through some here cuz I know we want to get to the text board
03:21they got questions for you have you ever broken up via text yes yeah I got that
03:28one right yeah how these people got the kids these days level of shame I admit
03:33that but yes the answer is yes drums or flats I personally both yeah but drums
03:41or flats I don't like the division no being so it's not no sincerely both
03:47okay because like my thing about it is I don't understand why yeah like they're
03:52they're both part of the same wing in fact I kind of hate it that they've
03:56gotten us to like split the wing in half and then pay for and then you know
03:59debate between the both of them the whole part of it is the wing do you
04:04believe in ghosts and or aliens I believe in aliens I don't believe in
04:09ghosts me or at least in the way that the ghosts are perceived like have you
04:13ever thought about the fact that maybe you know in all these media they're like
04:16oh this house is haunted and you're trying to tell me that this ghost can go
04:19through into interior walls but not exterior walls well okay maybe that's
04:23that work maybe maybe it's like the show goes where they have to stay in a
04:26certain place you probably haven't seen it anyways I'll do a couple more and
04:32then we'll get to some of the text boards 15 20% or other tip 20 how about
04:38takeout take out I'm usually if I'm going to tip if I'm going to pick it up
04:45I'm not tipping on that here's one that's a setup Hoosiers or field of
04:49dreams field of dreams and why is that and this I recognize the ignorance and
04:57if you choose to hate me I understand about to get some people switching the
04:59music I have heard very frequently that Hoosiers is a deeply overrated I want to
05:04know where you heard these things and I have I have yet to actually watch it in
05:08order to confirm that but yeah I'm good so Hoosiers is regarded by a lot of
05:12people as the greatest sports movie of all time it is I want to know who these
05:14people are that are telling you it's it's overrated that's what I want to
05:18know all right some office questions and then we'll get to these two more okay
05:22have you ever eaten someone else's food out of the office refrigerator probably
05:28but like it's if it if it's happened it hasn't been frequent at all mm-hmm and
05:33do you reply all on office email absolutely not absolutely not you're
05:37welcome you're in you're in I don't know if you have some there I got others if
05:40you do not oh there's a lot of text all right let's go let's actually I'll let
05:44you guys kind of sort through them because I feel like it works better if
05:47you guys can be the arbiter Oh Oh right out of the chute
05:51Cowboys or Texans as far as like which one you support I guess well I'm here so
05:59I came home yeah I'm home I mean I still remember I watching uh David Carr
06:05I mean like a man he got a cannon on a man if he didn't get sacked so much it
06:10had been great right like I yeah no there's there's there's there's that
06:13connectivity there mm-hmm yeah is there anything in Dallas that you think you're
06:17gonna miss oddly yeah man I'm s fair for sure and I mean the easy answer is
06:22people right you you get to make relationships I was there for quite a
06:26bit at this point I mean but Dale Jeff over a decade yeah there's a lot of
06:30people that I'm going to miss but um yeah I think that that's that's the
06:33biggest thing that comes up has has Lopez forced any og sauce on you sure
06:38has first of all it's not forcing he sure has I mean I understand what he
06:42just said and the answer is still he sure has I have not gotten it yet though
06:46I was able I was able to avoid that one I'll definitely get a bottle of OG sauce
06:51here you dip fries and milkshakes I don't I don't like I don't never done
06:55I don't like chewing I've never done that I like chewing cold things I don't know
06:59that I have sensitive teeth but they're more sensitive than not sensitive I guess
07:02is the way that I'll say that yeah and so I don't like trying to like the
07:05people that bite into an ice cream sandwich I don't love oh I'm not a big
07:08fan of it or like binding into ice cream just in general so I I feel like if I
07:12dip the ice cream or dip the fries in the ice cream now I'm getting into that
07:15place where I'm I don't want it I don't wanna be there I got one for you what

08:37company and a San Antonio company yeah exactly you'll be alright boss
08:42somebody somebody lobbed you old softball up there didn't it to Texas
08:46gamble on sports no no it makes me feel bad like what I know that there's
08:51something like it enhances the environment or the the feeling or the
08:55mood of when you're watching a game it just gives me anxiety and I'm like why
08:58would I do that I was enjoying watching the game more just watching it so instead
09:03of and now adding money and worrying about that money I'd much rather just
09:06not not gamble on the game I know exactly what you're talking about but I
09:10damn it I expose myself have you ever ridden a horse um technically yes but
09:17no like there is a picture of me at a daycare in the Houston area and we took
09:23a picture on a pony and that is the one time I can say that I've been on a horse
09:26so technically yes but no I have not ridden a horse let's say you've been on
09:30a mechanical horse yeah slid on one of the mechanical horses before at least
09:35go rounds yeah I was up in the hill country one time boys and I met this gal
09:43in a river who is a local gal uh-huh and says you want to ride my horse yeah in a
09:50very serious way yeah it was pretty much the first time that I'd been on a horse
09:55as an adult at least and boy I found out real quick the horse does not take into
10:01consideration the clearance of anything other than itself correct yeah she took
10:05off my horse is chasing I think that's all right you know I'm bumpy as hell all
10:09sudden she took a right my horse went underneath the tree to take it didn't
10:13knock me off that thing but swipe me back red so know that I don't know if
10:17you're married I don't know if you brought a gal with you and it really
10:19doesn't matter if you're on a horse and then it's and you got to hang a hard
10:22rider left make sure you got enough clearance bro alright I'm gonna write
10:26that down the horse don't know that's right that's right okay so how's the
10:29first day I've been fantastic man I think it's I think it's been pretty
10:33good I defer to the folks the folks that have been listening how they feel but I
10:39think it went pretty well from my perspective I did not completely mess up
10:43I almost said the wrong station once and I said I said the wrong show name one
10:47time yeah so hey man yeah we did okay we did okay we talked cowboys I told him
10:53dude I did it right there I said I wasn't messing up and then I messed oh
10:56you just said it yeah we talked a whole bunch of Texans and that's a tough one
11:00to mess up. It ain't saying like you messed up the Bengals or something. Yeah the Browns ain't a good one either look I recognize how tough the
11:10transition is because look I grew up in it man like I know that the Dallas
11:15Houston robbery is huge and uh switching sides on that in the matter of a
11:21weekend it's kind of crazy yeah I got lucky I came from 6-10 sports oh that's
11:27right so I could just slide that in a little bit it didn't sound as bad but
11:32it's still I was telling him during the break like I'm sure it feels like oh my
11:35gosh what's going on but it sounded great felt great yeah I'm happy I'm
11:39really happy for y'all if you know if you knew what you mean this man right
11:43here I tell Ron all the time man I said Ron if you know what you mean to me

12:07forward to it and I can't and I can't let history go by I don't know if there
12:12is any other place in this country that has three men of color running the show

12:22something that that you all should be proud of and don't mess up
12:30don't make it the last I'm gonna do my best
