Yep, should've gone with WayFair.

I'm done carrying around bulky drinks.

And I'm definitely done cleaning melted candy out of my pockets.

So yeah, I traded them both in for fruity rainbow five hour energy shots.

These little guys are as pocket sized as any candy.

But instead of a sugar crash, you get a zero sugar caffeine boost.

Candy can't even compare at this point.

Fruity rainbow five hour energy shots treat your taste buds

to an explosion of fruity flavor with a tasty caffeine kick.

That's right, caffeine just got a flavor upgrade.

And it's not just one flavor.

Five hour energy shots bring you tasty caffeine and 17 flavors.

17.

So if you're craving that candy flavored chaos,

but actually want energy that works,

grab fruity rainbow five hour energy shots.

Pocket sized zero sugar, big flavor.

You know, Valese has given me here the Oscars rating.

This isn't the meantime I wanted to see if there was overnight ratings

for a world-based ball classic.

I haven't been able to find them from last night's game.

But the US Dominican game average 7.37 million viewers.

Which I think is pretty darn good considering it was FS1

and Fox Deportes.

Yeah.

It peaked at 8.1 million viewers

to give it some contrast and it to show you how it is growing,

I think, in people's minds in terms of relevance.

In 2023, the previous record was 4.97 million, right?

So it almost doubled.

Yeah, I'd say well, 4.97, 5 million to 8.

Okay, up 50%.

Whatever it is.

That's up to a significant percentage.

I saw the attendance was way up too.

Yeah, I'm sure.

So it was about 36,000, 37,000.

Stan is packed.

Yeah.

Overall, they're saying average viewership across all of the networks,

Fox, FS1, FS2, etc, up around 142 to 180%.

I saw a colleague, JP Finley, tweeted,

great sports night, and he had three TVs.

Mm-hmm.

And maybe you guys couldn't be into it,

because when he said great sports, I know,

what?

There's a World Baseball Classic.

I don't know, my TV, there was like a Bucks Cavaliers game

or something like, I couldn't throw that in.

But on his big TV, I think he had the TGL one.

He did.

He did.

Oh, he did.

Yeah.

That's a big sports night.

That's a big sports night.

Hey, they upset.

I think they're in the final.

A World Baseball Classic huge TGL.

My Juplink, my Juplinks are in the final.

And there's a lot of scuttle about Tiger returning

for the final, the play.

I don't think he's going to.

As he alluded to, he doesn't want to muck it up.

So wait a second.

Tiger Woods hasn't played it all,

but then he would show up for the finals.

No.

Yes, but he's been there for everything.

He's kind of like the team manager.

He's the team cheerleys.

He's the cheerleys.

Exactly what it is.

Listen, he brings eyeballs.

Even with titles, he brings eyeballs.

Of course.

He's got to be there.

So, um, but here's what I will say.

What's his third TV, by the way?

Did you, you saw the same tweet?

It was, uh, it was the Howard game.

Yeah, it was, uh, okay, it was Howard.

You want to be so big.

Yeah, I just, I, I thought the TGL,

though being the main screen.

Oh, listen, I'm pro TGL.

Not that it's something that's, uh, you gotta watch

or anything.

It's just, I like golf.

It's great to have as a, in the background to keep an eye on.

I wouldn't focus my whole life around it.

But I like it.

But this idea that, like, Kevin Kisder suggested

that Tiger, if he's going to play in the Masters,

and he needs a warm-up tournament,

he has to play in next week's TGL.

TGL.

I don't know what, what are you talking about?

Like an hour on the TGL.

He's going to get you prepped for a gusta.

It's not like, it's not like playing in a tournament.

Right.

They get how many swings they get in the TGL match.

Getting carried away.

Hitting into a screen is not going to help you.

I like the TGL.

I'm pro TGL.

All about it.

I love simulator golf.

I love simulators.

I love technology.

The other anecdote, though, is there are some questions

shenanigans on the monitor.

Not only is it known to not be as accurate

as the best technology out there,

there are some questions of whether or not they aren't

tricking it up because they're having an

inordinate number of hole-in-ones.

Oh, they're fogging it.

They are.

It's like a video game.

Just to get people out on it.

Just why?

Just to get people to watch?

It makes it interesting.

I mean, Tom Kim doesn't hit that hole in one.

They don't advance.

That's a good one to play.

Never going down personally.

I know you know there's too many.

Speaking of, last but not least, I love golf too,

but if TGL, I'll watch it if it's the only thing on.

Right.

I mean, if it's the only sport in the event.

Yeah, you'll, you'll turn to it.

Yeah, that's the only time I watch it.

I like it, but it's not, I don't think

some primary must-watch thing.

If I wonder, you started off by saying,

here are the ratings, the World Baseball Classic,

and I've already forgotten a close to $8 million.

Well, you know, the ratings are for the TGL.

Not as different.

You're talking about a random.

What do they get like a hundred thousand?

No, no, no, no, even now when they're down,

if Tiger's there, they get four or five hundred thousand.

I think it's the first year

that could have peaked around a million.

But it's average and you probably don't have it.

Maybe you don't have it.

What does the players get?

The players championship.

I wouldn't know that off the top of my head.

Maybe a couple of million.

I would say two or three million.

Yeah, maybe something in that range.

No, a major would get more, you know,

like the master's something, but even still.

There's no doubt that seven or eight million

is a significant number for the World Baseball Classic.

One other just side note.

I just want to have to mention,

we think we talked about the hard knocks version of the PGA tour.

It's called Chasing Sunday.

They debuted it yesterday.

Okay.

Riveting.

I like.

Riveting?

Okay.

Not for you.

It looks so thorough.

Listen, I love hard knocks.

But it got boring after a while.

This is amazing.

It's the same production company.

It's NFL films.

They're doing it.

Same music.

Live Shriber.

The whole nine.

Live Shribers have 15 out of 10.

It's just a bowl.

It's so well done on your TV series.

Now it's on YouTube.

So check it out.

They literally the first episode debuted last night.

I hate the name Chasing Sunday.

I have to say I hate the name.

By the way, JP, the Sunday's final round of the players

got 7.1 million.

Wow.

It's a very comparable to the World Baseball Classic.

They peaked at 7.1 million.

That's pretty good.

I would have guessed around what you said.

That average was 4.5 mil.

So it was a lot more.

That was the World Baseball Classic semis.

Because last night was on Fox.

That's probably going to be way high.

Yeah.

You would think maybe Dyer number.

Maybe double 15 million?

I don't know.

I have no idea.

I tried to find the number.

I couldn't find it.

And I asked the Gemini and all the guys.

They just didn't know.

Well, they can't find it if it's not out yet.

Right.

It's a problem.

They also said Bobby Orr or 44.

Yeah, never trust technology.

TV ratings for the Oscars now.

They have declined some.

Still though, overall people are

fascinated, I guess, by Hollywood relative to others.

17.8 million viewers on ABC and Hulu.

It's down about 9% from the Oscars in the previous year,

which did close to 20 million, which is just stunning to me.

But it's a slow bleed down to 17 million.

I know I'm a good mocked, but I really haven't watched the Oscars

since Billy Crystal used to do that.

Please.

Yeah, I like Billy Crystal to do that, you know, jump into the movies.

Well, that's when we knew all the actors and all of the movies.

It's a lot different now.

Yeah, we just don't know.

I mean, Billy Crystal did make an appearance

in the Oscars during the Rob Reiner tribute.

He looks but old.

Oh, he did.

Yeah, he is but old.

He looks old.

It is depressing when you see a little guy.

It's depressing seeing the people, it really hits you.

Yeah, it hits you in the fields.

Yeah.

You know, you're getting old too.

That's unfair by Jason.

Jason knows who Michael B. Jordan is.

Okay.

You know, you know who Benicio del Toro is.

All right, but Charles and I know who Leo is.

The majority of them, I do not know, Matt, and I'm being honest.

The majority of them, I have no idea.

You might know the, and I know I've seen none of the movies.

Yeah, you might know some of the actors, the famous ones.

Yeah, but you know, you haven't seen the movie.

I mean, I'm being facetious when I said, I don't know him.

Of course, I know some.

Can you go see weapons already?

Can you, can you help me out over here?

The track record of advice is not good.

It's not.

No, you talk about the TV show.

Both, both guys hate it.

Well, just because they're actually about these hates it

because he's watched it three times.

He's watched it in the episode.

Well, I'm just, I'm in it now.

Yeah, you're in.

I don't think, I got to figure out who did it.

I don't think Drab is sick for me.

I'm kidding, but I mean, there's, there's definitely some blowback.

Yeah.

Um,

while a polluza, they reach, they're, they released their official 2026 line-up cakes.

If you, you're, you're, you're not a while, a poll, you're a festival guy,

but you haven't done the law of blues yet.

Have you?

What's the one you go to with your warp torch, A.B.

You're talking about that.

I'm the old guy who tried to skateboard into the war.

I'm so sure I could ride a skateboard.

Um, so headliners include, say, I don't even know how to say it.

Charlie XC X, how do you say her?

That's how I would say.

Okay, take the picture.

That would be right.

Lord Olivia Dean.

John Summit.

Jenny.

The Smasher pumpkins.

Aside from the pumpkins, that's a terrible lineup.

Those are the headlines.

There's a lot of polluza.

They say, other acts include little oozee vert.

I thought, I like little oozee vert.

I thought little oozee vert retired.

I know nothing about little oozee vert.

Couldn't tell you one thing about that.

I remember E.B.

bringing them up like five years ago, because your kid used to listen.

I got his number one diddy.

No chance.

There are fifth.

How many bands are there?

It's a multi day festival.

There's probably 150 bands.

Good Lord.

I'll say this about little oozee vert.

You know, I mean, if you're familiar with this work at all,

you know, I'm instantly when you hear them.

You know the sound.

Yeah, I can't tell you the names work.

There's something about being dead,

or whatever.

But I run a resonated with me.

And he just said, cool beats.

And he said, got a cool vibe to him.

And he's about this tall.

That little little little bit shorter than cakes, but not much.

Now I need to Google who's geese.

I don't know.

Freddie Gibbs.

Blood orange.

Work warship.

I mean,

I just disrespect the little oozee vert's five four.

I just the tower over little oozee vert.

All right.

He pushed them up.

Lil cakes.

Towers over Lil oozee vert.

Five four five four.

Five four.

That tower is over stumper.

I just love how you always pick on cakes when I'm like,

a quarter from the star.

I mean,

he's done to have his short,

some of the strap the way.

Please.

That's the shortest straw.

Kyos is short in turn.

Please immediately.

They say I saw a video.

So Mcjagger, 82.

Yeah.

He's apparently ready to step back from touring

after a mugging.

Who's gonna mug?

Mcjagger.

That's very disrespectful.

He's not.

He's a rock legend.

They didn't mug him.

They mugged his granddaughter.

Or it is a long time partner

where did his granddaughter, a CC Jackson?

Where was the mugging?

Oh my god.

Yo, that's too.

All right.

Too much bandwidth for you.

Yeah, I mean, you're actually me to read deep into the article.

It was in the first paragraph.

It was in the UK.

It happened in the person turned up dead at sea.

Who?

Hold on.

The person that mugged them turned up dead.

You know, what's the story about?

All right.

What's happening here?

There was another incident.

No, there was another incident.

There was a mugging and then,

it comes on the heels of another incident

where the granddaughter ended up missing

or something.

I don't know.

Partner of the granddaughter ended up dead at sea.

A partner of the granddaughter I believe

was found dead at sea.

Right, exactly.

Oh, very confusing story.

I'm confused beyond belief.

But I did see a video that went viral,

cakes of Rod Stewart performing recently.

Rod Stewart's up there.

Rod Stewart's got to be up there with Mick Jagger.

I'm going to say Rod Stewart's like 83.

Yeah.

I'm going to 83.

I'll agree with you.

Yeah.

He's looks like Rob Stewart.

No, like he looks like.

How did he sound?

Probably not that great.

He's up there and he's wearing all

he's wearing the outfits.

He wore in the 80s.

Yeah, and he's barely moving.

He's 81.

He's barely moving.

He's barely moving.

He can't move.

He's got his hair all teased out.

Who's going to be barely moving at anyone's?

You him him and this guy barely moving.

I can barely move.

And I'm wait, you know what?

Mick Jagger.

Surprisingly, he's 82, right?

I believe that's what the article said.

He actually he actually moves.

He moves pretty well.

And he had open art surgery like seven right years ago.

Does he have the moves like Chad?

He's probably does have the moves like Jagger.

Yes.

Well, you gave me this Dave Gold story.

I don't even know how I could do it.

I don't even know how I could do it.

Uh, it's very sexual.

We have guests here.

We do have guests here.

And I still think I can do it.

Bypass.

And then last but not least,

uh, Shylah Booth was still causing commotion.

I saw an interview with with Shylah Booth.

I had to find I had to say he was somewhat like.

You find him charming?

I mean, I found him somewhat like.

Well, anyway, what did you do in the middle of it?

Grabbed a beer in the middle of the end.

Who does the like.

That one over.

No, I thought it was somewhat ironic

because that's been kind of the root of some of his problems.

Some might argue.

Uh, but I found there'd be somewhat.

Why is he doing so many interviews?

I don't know.

Because he keeps getting in trouble.

I guess he's kind of justifying his life

and giving his life story.

I don't know.

Coming up next.

Next.

Did Andy Reed make a genius move?
