Every week, I'm breaking down the biggest issues happening in our communities and around the world. I'm talking to people like Julie K.

“On the Steena Show podcast, each episode invites you into a raw, unfiltered conversations about recovery, resilience and redemption.”

On a recent episode, I sit down with actor, cultural icon Danny Trail talk about addiction, transformation in the power of second chances.

The entire season, too, is now available to bench, featuring powerful conversations with the guest like Tiffany Addis, Johnny Knoxville and more.

I'm an alcoholic and I'll just prove I'm a diet. Listen to the Steena Show on the eye-heart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio. Uh, thoughts and prayers. Thank you. We made it traumatic time yesterday. My thanks to the big German. He is a certified firefighter and EMS.

And came to the rescue yesterday as I lit some incense and forgot to blow it out and we had flames. We had smoke. We had a fire alarm, but everybody is okay. And, uh, you know, usually what happens, women in children first, it was fritzy, women, and children first. And Todd, your 40-yard dash time was pretty impressive yesterday. I totally obliterated any previous record from here to the parker. Stad of the day, brought to you by putting any American official trading cards to the Dan Patrick Show.

By the way, the big German said, "I'm going to get you an incense burner. You're not going to be putting, I was putting incense into a candle holder." And it burned down and there other stems from the incense that caught fire and then we had smoke and then we had fire. Uh, but everybody's okay. We survived. We learned a lesson yesterday. I thought it was a little overly dramatic to stop, drop and roll that the big German said. And he came in with his axe. He was going to actually chop down my door and I said, "No, just turn the knob. Yes, Eden."

I am trying to figure out how the incense started a candle fire. Like those things sound like while the incense lit the candle on fire, candles are supposed to be on fire. Well, no, I have a bunch of stems from previous incense. Ah, like candlelight. So almost like a forest and it's, you know, just chopped down with a bunch of trees in there.

Those are the things that caught on fire. They caught on fire. Yes, I understand. And I kind of joked and I said, "Did the morning shows pick this up?" And Pauli said he was going to check. And then all of a sudden I find out that Harvey Levin and TMZ, they did a full report on this.

And as well, they should have because, you know, a Hall of Fame broadcast or nearly perished yesterday. Pauli, do you have the headline from TMZ? Of course I do. It's in my inbox every morning. TMZ sports fire in the hole. Studio up and smoke on air at the damn Patrick show. Forget hot takes, the damn Patrick show had actual flames coming out of the studio.

That's well said. And I appreciate that. But Harvey, thank you for reaching out just to make sure everybody was okay.

You also said we learned a lesson, which I thought was an interesting choice of words.

“Well, it's kind of like you with the Broncos.”

It's we. Okay. Right. Like we, when, when we win the sports semi, it's not me. Someone burns the place down, we as a group, burnt it out even though you specifically.

Okay. We all take credit. We all take blame. Okay. Thanks for clarification.

Thank you. Yes. Yes. Yes. Paul.

Back to the TMZ piece.

My favorite part of it in paragraph four.

And this was tweeted out to millions of people, by the way. Yes. As the crew scrambled, the big German aka Eric Jones behind a scene staffer who Patrick revealed as a certified fire fire in EMS. Bolton into the equipment room to assess a situation. He did.

He bolted in. He was very calm.

“Is the big German right now the most famous firefighter in America?”

Right now. Break out day. I don't know who his competition would be. At the point. Yeah.

I would say he's, he's pretty. Now, if President Trump invites him to the White House and gets him, you know, a medical freedom, maybe fire prevention week. Okay. Yeah.

He brings Eric to the big German to the White House. If a goal he can get it, then granted it was a great win over Canada. Why wouldn't the big German get it? He like save it alive. Yeah.

Connor, how about didn't save lives? Big German saved lives yesterday. But thank you. Thank you for the thoughts and prayers, flowers.

“There's reefs out there, you know, that they put by the door.”

But everybody's good. And my thanks to the big German. He came in, came to the rescue. For over 40 years, tire racks been helping customers find the right tires for how and what and where you drive.

College hoops is about to take over. Of course, they've been playing basketball for a few months now. But now's when we turn our attention to college basketball and watching last night. I'm just watching a doop put on another impressive performance there and blowing people out, by the way. And then we started to wonder about this when you look at certain players.

And then you go, "What head name sounds familiar?" And you go, "You know, cam booser, carlose booser." You know, the father's son combination here. And then you start to go down the list. And it feels like go back to when Chris Long was the number one pick on the draft.

And he was out of Virginia and his dad of course, how he long a Hall of Famer. And if you're looking for that lineage and you're going, "That's probably a pretty safe pick." Because Chris Long turned out to be a pretty good football player. You can trust the genes there. But, you know, Steph and Seth Curry and Del Curry.

Clay Thompson, Michael Thompson. Joe Kim Noah and Yannick Noah. Yannick was a very talented tennis player. Kobe and Joe Bryant, Peyton, Archie and Eli Manning. Patrick Mahomes and his father was a relief pitcher.

You got Christian McAfrey. And he got Ed McAfrey. Barry Bonds. Bobby Bonds. Ken Griffey Jr. Ken Griffing. Bow Bashet. Dante Bashet. And then you got the boosters. But you have the booser twins. So you have one twin, who's maybe the number one pick on the draft.

And then his brother is like six inches. How are you twins in his six inches shorter? Kaden Booser is six inches shorter. And I'm thinking, how does that happen?

Yeah. One's going to be probably the first year.

So I'm looking at the odds here. And it's a defensive right now is maybe the second pick. You got Patterson at Kansas, who might be the first pick. Peterson. I don't know why I keep calling in Patterson. But he is Darren Peterson.

He has expected to be the number one pick in the draft. At least those are the odds. But I'm watching last night. And you're seeing a Duke team that's blowing people out. I think they're last three wins.

Last three games they won by 99 points total. And here are the odds. So number one overall pick. Darren Peterson, minus 120 AJ to Banzer plus 120 Cameron Booser plus 650. Kingston Fleming's plus 12,000 Caleb Wilson plus 12,000.

Yes, Paul Cameron Booser for Duke.

I checked he's 18. Not 19 in a week or so. And it's not the Greg Oden thing. He looks like a grown man physically. He's got the full beard going.

“And they don't look like freshman anymore.”

Some of these guys. The thin freshman of our past. Yeah. He's ready to go and coach Sheshevsky. Of course, probably playing to the home crowd saying that Booser is the best freshman in America.

He might be. He's going to go in and play right away. But here is Coach K talking about Booser. To me, it's not close. This kid is so dependable.

So poised and puts up amazing numbers and accuracy and passing and rebounding.

And he sets up physical tone for our team that another team has to match. He said really is good a year as any freshman that is played here. And that's saying an awful lot. But Duke roughed up NC State to clinch the ACC and there. And there the number one team of the country Duke is one.

It's last three games by combined 99 points. [Music] Statter the day. Roger Vape in any American official trading cards of the program. Arizona number two team in the country.

Beat Iowa State Iowa State is sixth. And they roughed them up 73.57. Clinch the big 12 regular season title. It's still strange to say that Arizona big 12. But now here's something that I was not aware of.

But Tommy Lloyd had coached Arizona. One is 140th game of his career. That's the most by any coach in his first five years in NC AA history. [Music] All righty.

We'll get to phone calls coming up. Operator Tyler sitting by. Ross Tucker our good buddy will stop by in 10 minutes. Reggie Miller final hour of the show. Roger Bennett men and blazers has a new book out about the world cup.

Always great to have him.

He's always a hit. Twitter at tp show email address [email protected]. Come up with a poll question for the first hour of the program. College bounce come always become the following. It's like there's a restaurant that changes its menu every single day.

So you don't know what you're getting. That's college bounce come all every single year. It's hey, you want to go to that restaurant? What do they serve? Who knows?

But it'll be great. It'll be fun. It'll be exciting. It'll be dangerous.

“That's what college bounce come all the years.”

Every year it's like oh, and so what's the menu? I don't know. Who knows? But come on in. Take a chance on it.

It's like good for college bounce come all to not have a little bit of familiarity. You know, the women's game you get those players who are playing four years. And the familiarity with men's bounce come all. You're just going to be introduced to some of these players. And it's going to be time for them to move on.

Purdue, it feels like it's like a barbershop quartet. You know, they've been there for a while. Their mascot should be a musket. Yeah, you're like, how long you guys been together? I don't know.

I lost track. But got a couple of guys who've been there. Feels like five or six years. They're really good team. And of course, we talked guard play senior guard play.

That's always important. And get ready.

“Get ready for that rush of Jay Billis and Seth Greenberg and telling us, you know, who to keep an eye on?”

That eight nine match up. The 12 five match up all of those. Barkley may be watching some college bounce. Good ball who knows. Does he involved in the coverage this year?

Are they doing anything with ESPN or CBS? Yes, yes, yes, I'm Marvin. I don't think so because they're with ESPN, but Nate Burlison is on coverage for the incident. I don't know, it's all that. Yeah, CBS mornings NFL today.

Now he's going to do college basketball. I'm not sure who.

I always got a kick out of watching Barkley on the selection Sunday.

Cause Charles watched as much. He watched less basketball college basketball than I did. But he'd be up there telling you, you know, it would be Wisconsin Stevens point or something and Charles tried to tell you something. I would love to have seen what it was like when they weren't on camera.

Try to force feed them information. And I thought CBS went about it in the wrong way because they didn't know college basketball.

I wanted Kenny and Jack and Charles to be off talking about topics, not necessarily breaking down the starting line up for Marist College. But it was entertaining. It probably not in the way they designed it to be.

All right, seat and pull question for the first hour of the program.

Who would you rather watch a game with football with Ross Tucker,

“soccer with Roger Bennett, basketball with Reggie Miller?”

That's good. Soccer with Roger Bennett. I just think he's such a unique, fascinating voice and he's so bright. And he would have stories, he's entertaining. There's no wrong answer, but I think there's a right answer.

And it's Roger Bennett. They're all great. Yeah, I mean, Ross would be great. I mean, everything you just said about Roger works for Ross and Reggie. Yeah, for sure.

By the way, they are first named guest day. Oh yeah. Yeah. Roger and Reggie.

It's a pirate's favorite letter.

For some reason, I have a spelling error here where I put Rod Tucker. And I kind of love that his name was Rod. Well, he will be in about 10 minutes when I introduce him. Ladies and gentlemen, Rod Tucker. Rod Tucker.

A big day for NFL teams. You know, franchise tag conversation, releasing vets. We'll keep an eye on that as they roll in. It's Jonas back for the bucks. I didn't think he'd play for the bucks again, but he's back.

So we'll talk to Reggie about that coming up. I was off by week. My apologies.

“I think Jason Tatum might be back for the Celtics on Friday.”

I think they played the maps.

I was told it'd be the previous week when he would be back. Which is still early coming back from the Achilles. But boy, Boston is an interesting team. They're a fun team to watch. Because there are a lot of guys contributing.

And if you can get a half or three quarters of Jason Tatum, I think they're the team to beat and he's certainly. All right. 877 3D P show will come up with our poll question. And we'll get to your phone calls as well.

But when we return, it'll be Rod Tucker joining us on the Dan Patrick Show. Be sure to catch the live edition of the Dan Patrick Show.

I didn't know that then, because I very much used my creativity to romanticize life.

“And I'm like, my mom did a really good job of like, you step back and you're like, "Whoa,”

we, I don't know how we made it." So, a lot of my life was like built out of like survival to get to the next place. Like, my drive, my tunnel vision of like, "I gotta be better, I gotta achieve this," was off the strength of like, "I wanna make a better life for us." If you knew better, it brings real talk from women who've lived it.

I'm talking to the people closest to the biggest issues happening in your community and around the world. Because I know deep down inside right now, we are all cursing and asking, "What the bleep is going on?" I'm talking to people at Julie Cape Brown, who broke the explosive story on Jeffrey Epstein in 2018. These victims have been let down time and time again.

For decades and decades and decades, by local law enforcement, by federal law enforcement, by administration after administration.

“They're just a department through, I think we counted for presidential administrations,”

failed these victims. Listen to "Bleep With Anna Navarro" as part of the Michael Duda podcast. Available on the iHeart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

See, what's the poll question for the first hour of the program?

Yeah, we're going to go with who would you want to watch a game with? Rod Tucker, you can watch football with Rod. Soccer with Roger Bennett or basketball with Reggie Miller. Okay. 877 3D P show, email address [email protected], Twitter handle, at dp show.

Pauli said that there was a very popular newspaper in Europe in London, I think. The sun and they picked up the fire story from the show yesterday. Actually, a lot of places are picking it up off the TMZ report about almost tragic fire in the day in patched host studios. And, yeah, it's one of the bigger papers in Europe picked up the story and blazing it all over Europe.

And blazing, yeah, yeah, and we have men in blazers later on with Roger Bennett theme show. Yeah, but, you know, we're lucky. Big German back there was signing autographs when I went back. He wants to do a dramatic re-enactment of how he saved our lives. Dancing with the star is possibly gone.

He wants to, he wants to get his fire fire unit. Oh, oh, fire fire and a uniform, not as unit. Yes, Todd.

“Is this comparable to the sunny landing in the water?”

Oh, we look at that. Now, just Tom Hanks play the big German in the movie. Have you sold the rights to the night? Is that in development? Yeah, I talked to Sandman about it.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's playing the big German. Uh, Ross Tucker, you might know him as Rod Tucker. He is, of course, host of the Ross Tucker football podcast following on social media at Ross Tucker NFL. Good morning, Ross. Good morning.

So, first of all, I was with my daughters. They have a two hour delay because it's raining. So, I don't know where the Rod Tucker's coming from. Secondly, I guarantee it'd be more fun to watch a football game with me than to watch soccer with Roger or basketball was ready. I get, I get.

Reggie was a much better player than I was. I'm sure Roger Bennett is like, I promise everybody this thing you're watching.

You would have an amazing time watching a football game with me.

Okay, maybe we arranged that. Maybe we have a contest. Watch football with Rod Tucker. [laughs] Seaton, Seaton, I guess labeled you incorrectly.

I just had a typo in what I was looking at. And it's for some reason Rod Tucker instead of Ross really cracked me up. So I just mentioned it. But it's really nothing deeper than me making a typo. But it was R-O-D-D.

So, that's it. Like Todd, it's Rod Tucker. [laughs] I thought maybe you got chance to watch the football game with me and Fritzie together. And it was like, you know, J-Lo Benifer, whatever.

Where Fritzie and I were a combo package. I watched a game with Fritzie. That was not fun. Especially if it's the Broncos. I mean, that's the only reason to watch.

Now, you and Shane Irving would be interesting. Watching a game together. Maybe the Cowboys. I picture Fritzie just being a nervous,

That does not sound like it'd be fun at all. It wasn't. I've watched a Super Bowl with him. I've watched regular season games with him. And it's... he's a mess.

He's a mess. Yeah. Okay. Were you invited to the Combine After Your Lusteries Career at Princeton? No, not even close.

Not, not even... I wasn't even on, like, the Combine Snub List. Which is fine, because I stunk it all those drills for the most part anyway. It wouldn't help my stock would only have hurt me. Although, I've not been able to persuade some of the GMs

if I got some of those interviews. That would have been my best part. But you did a pro-day. I did. I went to Rutgers.

I did a pro-day two months after I had had hernia surgery. Sports, hernia, corn, muscle, whatever they call it. My numbers wouldn't have been that good. Anyway, Dan, but my agent felt like I needed to prove I was healthy.

“Here's all you need to know about my numbers at the Rutgers pro-day.”

Before it started, there's, like, 16 NFL teams there. I introduced myself to the scout from the Eagles. I'd tell him, "Hey, I'm from Reading outside a Philly group, a huge Eagles fan. We'll go to Training Camp. You know, go to Princeton." And he's like, "Okay, 'cause it's nice to have a local flavor sometimes with undrafted free agents."

So we have a really good conversation. My pro-day goes so poorly that afterwards, he won't even make eye contact with me. And he got out of the Rutgers bubble as fast as he can. And the eagle, I played for almost every team.

The Eagles never had one I owed of interest in me whatsoever.

That's how bad my pro-day was. The arm length topic that's now superseded the hand size. How important is arm length here? Okay, so this is exciting, because you're talking to one of the world's foremost experts in this. And we had breaking news at the common.

For the first time ever, someone my height or taller has shorter arms than me. Oh, yeah, blame me, hold on. There we go, breaking news. For the first time at Carson Beck, Dan, I was 64 and 5/8. And my arm length is 30 and 6/8, right?

30 and 3/4, horrendously bad. So I no longer introduced myself as a seven year journeyman offensive lineman. And I'm now one of the ten best NFL offensive lineman of all time with sub 31 in terms. Carson Beck was 64 and 3/4. And his arm length was 30 and 5/8 of an inch.

Carson Beck, the first person.

And I didn't realize this like in high score going back. If I just had normal arms, Dan, like 33 in terms, I would have been dunking in high school basketball. What have you gotten more girls? We've been incredibly.

If I just had normal arms. If a Carson Beck's a quarterback. Exactly, which means it doesn't matter at all. Listen, it's not the be all end all. It definitely helps.

Just like your reach helps if you're a boxer.

“But remember, Mike Tyson still found a way to knock out a lot of guys that had a longer reach than him.”

So you have to combat it. So I had super short arms. What would I do? I attacked immediately. I would call, it's called jump setting.

Where as soon as the ball is snapped, I would use the initial quickness to try to get on the guy right away. Because if I wait on them, Dan, and you go against like Richard Seymour. And they have the one arm that one arm.

They put it right in my chest. I had no shot. I was like this. It was very difficult. So it's not a need to have.

But it's really nice. And I'm very curious to know what my career would have been like. If I just like, just give me 32 inch arms. Just give me like even below average would be fine. But it's very hard to play professional football.

If you're a male version of a T-Rex. Okay, out there.

“Would you rather face miles, Garrett, or Aaron Dumbled?”

Aaron Dumbled.

Yeah, I mean, Aaron's incredible.

But he doesn't have the length element. That miles also has. And if I'm going against miles,

His space is not my friend. With Aaron, I can at least try to jump on. Try to get on him quickly and give myself the best chance. I was pretty decent against power. It was more the movement stuff that really would would.

Would would give me problems. He's Ross Tucker CBS sports westwood one. Analyst and host of the Ross Tucker football podcast. Let's look at the quarterbacking situations here. Where do you want to start?

“Which team do you think you have a better handle on?”

What they're going to do here the next couple of weeks or months? I actually want to start with a player. And I think this is fascinating. Because I, on today's Ross Tucker football podcast that Greg Rosenthall, he went over his free agent rankings from NFL.com.

His number one ranked free agent, Dan. Malik Willis. Yeah. And I know Chris Sims. I've heard Chris on your show.

Talk about Malik Willis.

Here's what's fascinating though.

I don't really think people want to trade for Kyler Murray or to a Tunga Viola. And we know cousin's going to get released. Those guys might get released. But they have a lot of guaranteed money left.

What does that mean? That means these teams might be able to get Kyler or to a potentially for the minimum. For the minimum. Two has 54 million guaranteed.

You can get them for the minimum. Are you doing that? Or are you paying Malik Willis? He hasn't played that much football. 25 to 30 million dollars a year.

And committing to him.

“On some level, Dan, you're going to get a competent starting quarterback”

like to a and maybe Kyler on the very, very cheap. As opposed to a guy in Malik Willis who flamed out, who he's going to be a free agent. And there's going to be multiple suitors because he looked good in the three games or every played last year.

The financial element of this is really, really fascinating. OK. So the dolphins are going to be on the hook and Arizona is on the hook for the money that Murray and Tua are going to make or still owed. Well, so what they're going to try to do is get anything in return

whether that's a draft choice and/or get another team to pick up some of their contract. So that's what all the negotiating is. But it's like Denver eating the Russell Wilson contract. Well, that could be the case for both Arizona and Miami

or maybe there's so much money there that they have to give up a draft choice to get someone to eat half of it, right? Like, OK, we'll give Tua 20. You give 'em 30.

“And we'll give you a seventh round pick.”

Or whatever it is, I'm just making this up. But the dolphins might have to give someone money ball if you will then, might have to give someone a draft pick to get them to take some of Tua's financial burden off of the dolphins.

They'd rather do that probably than just outright release them. A source was telling me yesterday we were kind of going over the musical chairs with quarterbacks. And he brought up, do you think the judge being on the clock

with the second pick overall was enough of a deterrent

that Trinidad Shamblas goes back to Old Miss and Dante Moore stays at Oregon? Do you think that that could have factored in at all for these quarterbacks to say I could come out but that's not where I want to go?

Well, a lot of people were saying that about the New York Jets and I can't tell you how strongly I disagree with that being part of the discussion. You have a chance to be the number two overall pick in the NFL draft.

And I know you can say the Jets are in a great organization or whatever, ask Drew Aller from Penn State. Ask Garrett Nussmeier from LSU. Ask some of these guys who are now just hoping to be day two picks, who a lot of people were saying

maybe last year they would have been first round picks or going into this year they would have been first round picks. So we'll hear all this stuff about Dante Moore and Arch Manning in Chamblas. Listen, they can't all go one or two next year, Dan.

And people, this notion that you want to avoid the Jets. First of all, it's a little bit disrespectful to their new regime. Secondly, what organization do you think is picking one two or three next year that you think is so great

that you're going to avoid. That is the worst logic. And they go, they make plenty of money.

Yeah, you're going to tell me five million

dollars fully guaranteed. If you know you're going to be a top five pick,

“in the NFL draft, you have to go from a business standpoint.”

If you love college and Oregon, if you think you need more time to develop, we can have that conversation from a strictly business perspective. I think it's assinign to think that someone would return to school to avoid a certain franchise.

Once again, it was just a thought that was brought up with. No, no, no. And I believe you, Dan, but I've seen many people talking about that over the last few weeks on social media, including people I respect.

By the way, you're also then a year further removed

from potentially getting $60 million a year after

your third year in the NFL if you're a good player. It just, it doesn't make sense to me at all. I mean, who do you think is going to have the number one pick next year? You think it's going to be the Seahawks or the Eagles, like that's how it works?

If Fernando Mendoza came out after his last year at Cal. Okay? Yeah. Nobody knows him. Might have done the interviews great.

Might have been a decent combine. Is he a second day draft pick? I think so.

“I think he probably ended up being a day two pick.”

There was enough buzz about him at the end of last year. But even if he stated Cal, this past year or not at Indiana, you see the number one pick on the draft? No, definitely not. But.

Definitely not. Okay. He's the number one pick because he played really well, but the team had tremendous success. He played in a lot of big games against if he stays at Cal,

let's say they have a great year and they're nine and three. He's not the presumptive number one pick. He's probably not even top 10. If you're looking at the most impactful player, let's say, let's just say offensively.

It's Jeremiah love. Okay. Agreed. Why would he not go second, even though the jets have breeze hall?

If I can get another dynamic playmaker, why don't I cater my offense? So you have to stop me. He can play wide receiver. I mean, you could Christian McAfrey him

and breeze hall. They're probably keeping. Why wouldn't the jets take the the best. The most impactful offensive player. Couple reasons.

I think one of which is the financial. You know, even to franchise tag,

a running back is like $12 million.

So let's just say they franchise tag breeze hall. You have a position like that for $12 million. You're not getting, and I'm not saying I agree with this damn. I'm just telling you this is how they look at it.

You're not getting the value of Jeremiah love being a top 10 player at that position. If you're paying him what those guys make already is, the number two overall pick, he'd be right up there with,

you know, towards the top of the running back pay scale. Whereas if you take our Valreys and he's an elite edge rusher, rather than paying Miles Garrett or Mike a Parsons 40 million dollars a year,

you're only paying our Valreys 10 million dollars a year. So you're getting tremendous value. The argument would be, that you're not recuperating the same amount of value if you have a running back that high

as opposed to the other positions where the veterans get paid and exorbitant amount of money. That's why you went to Princeton. I think so.

And I always, I have the jacket to wear.

You know what I mean? That's what I mean. I see it. I see it. What was your grade point at Princeton?

3.4. Good enough to be.

“I think the cutoff for academic all Americans”

was like three, three or three, three, three, five. I was right where I needed to be then. Yes. Right.

I qualify. You were an academic all American. Yes. Juniors senior year. Okay.

Yeah. Yeah. Coside a district to academic all American. But we don't need to remain because I didn't this.

I mean. I don't see a plaque there behind you with all your helmets and footballs. Oh, that's because I have my wife made me put my prints in degree up.

But it's on the side. That doesn't need to be featured. It's just on the side wall over here. He's Rod Tucker or Ross Tucker. The Ross Tucker football podcast

“from the Bronx, I think I grew up really poor.”

So a lot of my life was like, build out of like survival to get to the next place. Like my drive, my tunnel vision of like, I gotta be better. I gotta achieve this was off the strength of like,

believe with Anna Navarro. I'm talking to the people closest to the biggest issues happening in your community and around the world. Because I know deep down inside right now,

we are all cursing and asking, what the bleep is going on. I'm talking to people that Julie Cape Brown who broke the explosive story on Jeffrey Epstein in 2018.

These victims have been let down time and time again. For decades and decades and decades, by local law enforcement, by federal law enforcement,

by administration after administration. They just this department through,

“I think we counted for presidential administrations,”

failed these victims. Listen to bleep with Anna Navarro as part of the Michael Duda podcast. Available on the iHard Radio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

He reached out this morning. Wanted to make sure that everybody was good. Thoughts and prayers from Will. We appreciate that. Alrighty.

Early pole results there. And you know what? This might be sneaky on Will's part. Getting the early movie rights. After I mentioned, Sandler would probably be interested.

He's a contact. Early pole results. Who would your other watch a game with football with Ross Tucker socker

“with Roger Bennett or basketball with Reggie Miller?”

Happy to say a 52% running away with this one right now. Football with Ross Tucker. Excuse me. Rod Tucker. Rod Tucker?

Yes. Reggie Miller has 33% of them. Okay. Christian Syracuse leads us off. Good morning, Chris.

Hey, thanks, Dan. Hey, got a couple of things to throw at you. And also a couple of things out the fire yesterday. I thought of a potential t-shirt. It would read, have the date March 2nd, 2026.

And then it would say Dan Patrick and his studio in Fuego. Okay. And also, I loved years ago, Paul said a couple of times that. If ever there was a fire in the studio, the first thing he would do was run as fast as he could get a wet towel and throw it over Dan Fair.

And a few weeks ago, Patrick Mahomes re-structured his contract with the chiefs. Hoping to make a run at another Super Bowl next year.

Dan, during this year's NFL awards season, you talked about how they never give offense

to player the year in MVP to the same player. I wonder if Patrick Mahomes really re-bounce next year in Wins MVP. If he could also win combat player the year, because I don't believe an NFL MVP is ever won that. And Dan, off your interview yesterday with Jeremy Fowl and being a big Viking fan, with

JJ McCarthy looking more and more like our next Christian ponder. The bikes need a quarterback. But being well over the cap, then we planned on having our starting quarterback on a rookie deal. I hope we just signed one of the short-term quarterbacks.

Not a guy who could potentially be our quarterback of the future. And I'm sure our new GM will want to have input on that decision. And Dan, I still can't figure out why at this time of year, the Vikings have no new GM in place. Thank you, Chris. Sean and Daytona Beach.

I Sean. Dan, long time, long time. Thank you for calling me back. I have the few questions regarding the fire yesterday.

We all know your affinity for first responders.

We'll get to death. We see all the patches.

“If I'm not mistaken, I believe you have first responders and your family.”

Why is your wife aware of what happened when you got home? Because my wife was, my Alexa told her that there was a smoke alarm going on. You had to call the house. That's me what was going on. And also, have you ever had an incident at the house with the cigars?

Thank you all guys. No, nothing with the cigars, but I don't leave them unattended. And no, my wife, I did not want to bother her with this. Now, she might be reading the papers, or maybe the today show picks up this story. And then she's going to go, you didn't tell me.

And I just, I don't want to burden her with, you know, she has other things to worry about. And, um, look, crisis-averted. I mean, the big German who, if you're watching on peacock, he has his, his firefighting uniform here. He has it here. That his jacket is helmet on.

Had a white on the top of it. He knew that something could happen. He's prepared. Yes, Marvin. Does Robin Roberts do a one-on-one with the big German?

Well, I would probably be there with him. Oh, it's got to be about you.

“Um, I think if you're going to get ratings, you know, you're like, oh, my gosh, Dan Patrick.”

And they're the guy who saved his man, Kiff. Yeah. So I think it, it, it works better when you couple. And I think me sitting there, you know, he's reassuring. He's a big guy.

He's got his uniform on. He smells like smoke. And, uh, I mean, I smell like cigar. But he smells like smoke. Uh, David in Ohio.

Hi, David. Welcome back. Hey, Dan, sorry about yesterday. I got a few, uh, got a few fire puns here for you. The Dallas Cowboys don't need a fire department.

They already put themselves out every January. Second one. Calling the fire department for the Cowboys is pointless.

There's never really a real blaze.

There's a lot of three seasons. No last one. The Cowboys are like a fire drill. Loud, dramatic. And nobody actually didn't danger of winning anything.

Thank you. All right, David. David, take a new shot spent to count boys. Uh, Lucas in Texas. Hi, Lucas.

What do you have for me? Hey, Dan. Good morning. Good morning. I got a show pitch for you in just a second.

But real quick, don't read too much into Will Ferrell's altruism there.

A little over a year ago.

If you remember what I'm talking about. Uh, but uh, my show pitch for you.

“Remember, I gave you the Dan Patrick takes a real gamble and watches.”

The Cowboys game was Shane Irving. I've got a new one for you called Sport Court, where you hear arguments from two different sides of a sport debate. And you as the judge issue are ruling. And if you if you'd allow me, I've got a case to bring before you.

Because I just had a sports argument with a friend. Okay, real quick. Yeah, my argument is that Duke basketball is not a blue blood yet. The argument being that he blew by a transcendent one coach. He's very dominant.

So they need to win a national title under Shire to actually become a true blue blood.

How rule you, your honor. I would have to do some research on that of the number of schools that have had multiple national championship winning coaches.

“But yeah, I could be kind of a judge's duty.”

We could do a sports version of judge's duty, where you come in. You state your case. I like that. Roger Bennett, men and blazers. Got a book out about the World Cup.

Reggie Miller will stop by as well. Hey, everyone. It's Emily Simpson and Shane Simpson from the legally brew net podcast. Each week, we're bringing you true crime through illegal lens. Whether you want all the facts on the disappearance of Nancy got three,
