This is an eye-heart podcast, guaranteed human.

I'm Clayton Eckard, in 2022,

I was the lead of ABC's The Bachelor.

But here's the thing, Bachelor fans hated him.

If I could press a button and rewind it all I would, that's when his life took a disturbing turn. A one-night stand would end in a courtroom. The media is here. This case has gone viral. The dating contract.

Agreed to date me, but I'm also suing you. This is unlike anything I've ever seen before. I'm Stephanie Young. Listen to the love trapped on the I-Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Next Monday, our 2026 I-Heart Podcast Awards are happening live in South by Southwest. We'll honor the very best in podcasting from the past year and celebrate the most innovative talent and creators in the industry.

And the winner is-- creativity, knowledge, and passion

will all be unfolded display. Thank you so much. I-Heart Radio. Thank you to all the other nominees. You guys are awesome.

Watch live next Monday at 8 p.m. Eastern 5 p.m. Pacific Free. Itfeeps.com or The Vips app. I'm Nancy Glass, host of the burden of guilt season 2 podcast. This is a story about a horrendous lie that destroyed two families.

Late one night, Bobby Gumpride became the victim of a random crime. The perpetrator was sentenced to 99 years until a confession changed everything. I was a monster. Listen to burden of guilt season 2 on the I-Heart Radio app,

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, I'm Jay Shetty, host of the on-purpose podcast. My latest episode is with Hillary Duff, singer, actress, and multi-platemortist. You desire in family like this picture.

And that's not reality. My sister and I don't speak. It's definitely a very painful part of my life. And I hope it's not forever, but it's for right now. Listen to on-purpose with Jay Shetty on the I-Heart Radio app,

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio. Now we're two on this Thursday, Dan and the Danets Dan Patrick Show. Todd's here. Seat and Sear Marv, Pauli.

Yours truly, and of course, the backroom guys. Phone calls, 8773DP show, operator Tyler sitting by. Our stat of the day brought to you by Penini America, the official trading cards of the program. Say good morning.

If you're watching on Peacock, or NBC Sports Network. Thank you. Or listening on our great radio affiliates around the country. Seat and would you update the poll results from our one. And do we have a new poll question for our two?

Uh, man, hour one, we've got up there. Do you believe the ravens were trying to pair tray Hendrix in and Max crawls me together? You guys want to guess the results on this one? 85, 15.

Oh, boy, are you close? And in which direction just to be clear? They don't believe that the ravens were going to rip pair both of them. So it would be 89% do not believe that, which I think it's funny.

You know, the only thing that I kind of think like maybe there is some truth

to it is that they were able to sign tray Hendrix in very fast right after the Max crawls me think fell apart. So there were clearly already discussions happening. They were clearly talking to both parties at the same time. But man, to be able to turn that around that fast, maybe there is some truth

to it. But I don't know who was in the market for tray Hendrix. And I didn't hear any other teams because of the asking price. But hey, if Eric de Costa, the GM of the ravens said they were interested in both, then kind of agree, okay, maybe they were.

You know, maybe you were kind of flirting a little bit. Maybe they got buyers remorse when they were bringing in Max crawls me. Maybe the more they thought of it, the more they were thinking, man, do we want to give

up two first round picks for this guy?

Well, let's bring him in. Well, he's coming in anyway. Now all of a sudden you go, maybe we'll pass his physical Max. We got some bad news for you. We're going to have to let you go back to the raiders.

tray Hendrix and online one. Okay, hold on Max, see you later and thank you again. But you get tray Hendrix and I understand it. Like if I'm the ravens, I don't give up two first round draft picks. And on granted, those first round picks are going to be, well, this one this year was

a top 15, I believe, now the one after that would probably be in the late 20s.

But if I can get Hendrix and I think he can give me two years, I know they gave me four year deal, but it'll probably be two years and if I can get something out of him that he's not Max crawls me, but I don't have to give up those first round picks.

I think those are essential, they're going to have Lamar restructure is deal,...

ravens are saying that they were in the market for both of them.

All right, some of the headlines from last night, Italy helps out USA basketball, baseball is they advanced by the way, the breakdown of players on team Italy who were born in Italy.

Todd, you want to guess how many of team Italy were born in Italy?

I'm going to say six. All right, see it, I'll be more optimistic, I'll say ten. All right, Marvin, four, all right, Paul, seven, three, three. That's a day, that's a day, that's a day, that's a day, that's a day, that's a day, that's a day. It comes that, what, what, what of the day.

And team USA benefits, because now you have the elimination round, you have team USA facing Canada tomorrow night, Italy plays Puerto Rico in the quarterfinals on Saturday. Yes, Paul, Dan, just to be balanced, I've got USA's baseball roster here, zero players from Italy born on a roster, zero, yes.

Does it take away from the world baseball classic that it's basically just Americans going

by their nationalities, like where's Ireland out there, can we get a team of Irishmen? Soccer does this, doesn't it? With the World Cup? I guess.

I think you have to be a citizen, so I'm guessing that everybody is a citizen of the teams

that they're playing for. You could have dual citizenship, right, I'm assuming that that's the case, but I don't know if I was from the United States and I played for Italy, I would demand that I get dual citizenship.

I think you got to give me something other than the opportunity to play in the World

Baseball Classic. But it's been fun. I've watched a whole lot more than I thought I was going to and watched Italy. Now I'd have to go to my 23 in me and look at that and see who I would play for. How many options would you have?

Well, I think I've got a great Britain, I could probably play for Great Britain, Ireland, Wales, Scotland, they're not playing baseball. I got the one and a half percent Escanazi, so team is real.

There's like one percent West Africa, so did they have a team?

I'm not quite sure. You start to look at your 23 in me and you go, I got some questions about, you know, whatever happened down through the years here, how do we get some of these countries in there? The one percent two percent, yes, that's my 23 in me, it was simultaneously great and the most boring of all time because it was like 99.9% English, you know, Irish, UK, British,

like, it was all concentrated right there. But you'll get those stragglers like that one and a half percent, you're like, what happened here? But mine was a little more interesting than I thought it was going to be because I thought it was going to be all, you know, the emerald aisle, but turns out that there were some

rogue percentages in there. All right, so team USA gets Canada on Friday night and Italy moves on to take on Puerto Rico. A couple of college basketball notes, you had McNeese, not McNeese state anymore, Lehigh and Idaho, they get their tournament bids, Bobby Hurley's out at Arizona State. They're accused has a job opening and I'm thinking Jerry McNamara, now he's got a tournament

bid with Sienna and then after that, then he takes the two-hour and 15-minute drive from Sienna college to Syracuse to take over at his alma mater. What about Bobby Hurley joining Danny Hurley at UConn? Could you imagine him as an assistant coach there? They were on the same team, right? Marvin just had sound right?

It was Corrette. Bobby and Dan? Yeah. Yeah, years ago, I think they were both coaches on the same team. But was Danny with Bobby at Buffalo, or was it Wagner?

Bobby Hurley was with Danny Hurley for two seasons at Wagner College and one season at

University of Rhode Island.

Oh, okay.

Yes, so Bobby Hurley is out at Arizona State.

He was another thing. The same year, Indiana football wins the national title, "The Basketball Team" goes 18 and 14, lost to Northwestern yesterday by 13 to get knocked out of the big 10 tournament. Indiana is a football school. Much to the chagrin of the state, that's a basketball state, but for Indiana basketball, like

15-20 years ago, this would be a huge deal if this happened to Indiana basketball. Now, when's the last time you talked about Indiana basketball? When's the last time they had a player that you talked about with Indiana basketball? That's what's pretty surprising here. NFL free agency slowing down, although you still have Kyler Murray, Kyler Murray is going

to be probably visiting Minnesota, or might be a zoom call based on what Ross Tucker was talking about, that Kyler Murray wants to know after this season. But if I have, if I'm correctly reading what Ross Tucker was saying, that hey, I'm going to go and play for one year, I want to know who's going to be interested in me after this.

If that's what Ross Tucker was actually describing, that maybe I go to Minnesota, I want

to know is somebody looking at me long term, that he has three to five zoom calls that coming up this week, which is kind of surprising. I don't know why I would tip my hand and say, "Hey, we'll be interested in you in a year from now." I mean, in the NFL, at that position, things change.

Daniel Jones got paid, $44 million a year, the new Kirk Cousins in the NFL, and good

for him. I was surprised at that amount, but Daniel Jones was a thing there for about 10 games, and then not a thing after that, yes, he's going to end up making just an unbelievable amount of money. Can we do career salary game with Daniel Jones?

And with this contractor without, with this contract. There we go, two-part game, Daniel Jones, how much has he made, and will he make after this contract, based off the minimum he can make?

But has he made already a little hint, in 2023 he made $46 million with the giants?

What has he made so far? Let's just combine it. Okay, yeah, make it easier, I don't know if it's easier, but make it just one total. Todd, you want to throw out Daniel Jones, we'll make after this contract, how many millions of dollars?

Two hundred and twenty-seven million, let me say two fifty-three, Marvin, two eighty-one.

I'm going to go two thirty-nine five, thrown in the five, two hundred and fifty-eight million dollars. Oh dang, I was close, yes, yeah, alright, congratulations, congratulations, thank you. And let me see the NFL, let me get that five million difference that I was off by the fire.

Then you win that, yeah, Jones, that was that to me. NFL's looking at the night before Thanksgiving, the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving when there's three games on Thanksgiving, and why not cram another one in there. Now social media was like, oh, you know, I don't like this at all, but you're still going to watch it, like the NFL you can't deny, like there's other sports or other

events where you're going, I'm not going to watch it. It's the NFL you'll watch, what else is going to be on? You're going to be maybe going to the bar, you see people on that Wednesday night before Thanksgiving coming back home, and you get together with former classmates, but you're

going to have a game on, and that's what they're looking at Wednesday night, the night

before Thanksgiving. I keep wondering, what is the downside? I don't know if there is because you're going to what they have you, it'll be fantasy, it'll be gambling, and it'll be nothing else is on, and you'll watch. Yes, Todd.

Wasn't this something to be said? Remember the days of like you're waiting once a week

Your favorite TV show is on, and that's the big day, and you can't wait and t...

a tease at the end, and there's something that builds up as opposed to, you know, just

having it every day, wouldn't that take away some of your... Okay, Todd, would you want to go back to 1985 when there's two games, maybe three games available? I'd like a few more than that, but I think we're getting to an over-saturated point, I think I think I've heard to the NBA, it's definitely hurting MLB, and there is such thing as

too much of something, I'd believe it. Okay, but how much is too much?

That's what has to be figured out, but I don't think we need the NFL every single day as much

as we all love the NFL, you know, I wouldn't mind like a day or two break between trying to keep track of the... There are. There's no Tuesday games. But once they do Thursday, and they just keep pushing the envelope, and you know, I don't

see a need for like trying to see if every day of the week they could be at least one NFL game. So if the Broncos play Wednesday night. It's the Broncos, I'll watch that. I don't know if I'm not sorry watching Saints Falcons game on Wednesday night, but that's

the only game that's on. That's how they get you. They have to stand alone game, so you end up watching anyway. Yeah. I don't think people tune out, they're turned away, that's the NFL.

You know, as long as the product is good, entertaining, interesting, then people are going to watch, even if you don't bet on the game, or you don't have fantasy attached to this. Yeah, see? Yeah, I mean, I'm kind of along the same lines as Todd, where I do think that we don't need the NFL almost every night.

I think that there's probably room for everything else, and I think it's, I'll always

watch my team, and I'll always watch what the important games are, but it becomes less likely

on that. Yes, say that we add a Tuesday game, a Wednesday game, whatever, even Thursdays, I'm kind of like, unless it's a team or a game that I'm really interested in, I'm not watching. Yeah, but I think we're different because, you know, I think younger fans probably are betting on the game, and they probably are doing fantasy.

We're not doing either, therefore you're watching these games. And the number of people that I'm around younger people who say, hey, I got to have a reason to watch this game, and they want to put money on it. That's not us. I just think that, you know, they have you.

You'll watch the game for the most part, I'm with you on Thursday night. It's like, I don't like Thursday night football. I don't think the quality has been good, I don't think it's fair to the players. I hope they don't do Friday, hope they don't do Saturday, but they, they, the NFL wants to push, they want to push it out to the world, and it's like they take us for granted.

Now, the expansion is, you know, global, everybody's going to be playing a game outside of the United States. Yeah, Paul. I went back and looked at the Thanksgiving Eve schedule for last year, 2025. There is no football on college or pro, obviously, but there was a triple header of NBA

games, three games between five and 10 p.m. and the NBA started this.

The first ever NBA triple header was last year on Thanksgiving Eve.

I looked at the networks, and it was all like package shows, not traditional network shows, like pre Thanksgiving type shows, holiday type fair. Maybe the NBA, every time they must turn around, they go, wait, what's the NFL doing to us? Yeah, Christmas Day, the night before Thanksgiving, yes, eating.

Yeah, I think it's interesting that you're just talking about how young people need a reason

to watch the game, and that reason more often than not currently is gambling. That would be the sign of not having a good product, though. If you need a reason to watch the game other than it's just a good game, but, oh, well, I have money riding on the game, so now I have to watch the game, that would indicate to me that the NFL product is not good, because unless you're gambling, then you're

less likely to watch it. Well, and they don't grow up as fans of teams nowadays. You grow up as fans of players because you're in fantasy. I don't know loyalty-wise, if you're watching games, how many games you watch? I just know, in my family, with my kids, it's, oh, I'll watch the Packers game, oh, they

don't gamble, but they have fantasy, so you might be watching it that way, but for us, it's different. I probably watch more football because I'm not gambling or not doing fantasy, because I had a hard time when I was gambling watching those games, and I watch, I watch Red Zoom, I'll watch the big game of full game, and then I'll watch Red Zoom.

But I think, you know, kids nowadays, you know, attention span, hey, I got something on it, my fantasy team, but it's just different than us. I'll take a break, get some more phone calls coming up, 8773DP show, email address [email protected], Twitter handle, like dp show, who has the best odds to have more sacks in 2026, tray Hendricks in, or Max Cronzby.

We'll have that for you when we return.

I'm Clayton Eckard, and in 2022, I was the lead of ABC's The Bachelors. Unfortunately, it didn't go according to plan.

He became the first bachelor to ever have his final rose rejected, the internet turned

on him. If I could press a button and rewind it, I would.

But what happened to Clayton after the show made even bigger headlines?

It began as a one-night stand, and ended in a courtroom, with Clayton at the center of a very strange paternity scandal. The media is here. This case has gone viral. The dating contract.

Agreed to date me, but I'm also suing you. This is unlike anything I've ever seen before. I'm Stephanie Young. This is Love Trapped. This season, an epic battle of he said she said, and the search for accountability in a

sea of lies. Listen to Love Trapped on the I-Hart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Nancy Glass, host of the burden of guilt season 2 podcast. This is a story about a horrendous lie that destroyed two families. Late one night, Bobby Gumpride became the victim of a random crime.

He pulls the gun, tells me to lie down on the ground. He identified Termine Hudson as the perpetrator. Termine was sentenced to 99 years, and like Laura, this can't be real. I thought it was a mistaken identity. The best lie is partial truth.

For 22 years, only two people knew the truth, until a confession changed everything. I was a monster. Listen to burden of guilt season 2 on the I-Hart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. You desire in family like this picture, and that's not reality, a lot of the time it's for

people. My sister and I don't speak, it's definitely a very painful part of my life, and I hope it's not forever, but it's for right now. Listen to on purpose with Jay Shetty on the I-Hart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Who has the better odds to have more regular season sacks in 2026, tray Hendricks and of the Ravens Max-Crosby of the Raiders? If you said tray Hendricks and you would be correct, he has better odds than Max-Crosby. Miles Gary is your clubhouse leader.

Yes, Tom.

Staying with that, how many more sacks do we think tray Hendricks and would have if you

believe that than Max-Crosby at the end of the year?

I don't know how healthy Max-Crosby is. Assume he's okay and he's fine for the most part, and doesn't have a big setback. So he just plays like Max-Crosby? Yeah, maybe slightly less than he was because he had the surgery, but assume they're both that almost 100% tray would have how many more sacks if he's the leader in the

clubhouse over Mac. One and a half. Okay. I'll just curious what you thought. No idea.

I'm going to say he's going to have three and a half more sacks. Oh, okay. All right. Okay. Let's take Max-Crosby because Max is probably not going to be in a good mood every

week after this. He's got a chip on the shoulder. Be grudgingly. Yes, Tom. I thought he's in a great mood according to the social media.

It's a sighted to be back. Let's go. It's bringing it on. Back with the red is like I want it. I don't know what mood I would be in.

If I had to go back to the team that I basically said goodbye to, that I said I wouldn't

play for anymore, and I was going to go to Baltimore. I was going to play for a team that might go to the Super Bowl, said I'm going back to the rebuilding raiders. Yay. Yes, Tom.

At least the raiders are in a very easy division. You could just get past the cheeseburger and try to do it with a winger of an eye. Yes, Marvin. Isn't it awkward when he sees the GM A, Max, great to have you back. Back?

Yes. Silver and back. Yes, Paul. It's, but he's going to play the good soldier role for the next few weeks. He's still getting paid, but it feels like it's open season to lowball the raiders.

I would.

I'd say you're not getting two first round draft picks.

We'll give you a first and a third for Max Crossby, which teams are in the position where they can give that up to them, pay that salary, and are in the need of somebody like Max Crossby, as maybe the final piece. Like Buffalo, it feels like, if I'm Buffalo, I don't stop with DJ more. I look at AJ Brown.

It feels like somebody's going to get him.

The question is, how much is enough for the Eagles to go?

Okay. Now if I'm the Eagles, I don't want to give him up because he's so good. I know that he sounds like he doesn't like playing there or doesn't want to play there any longer. If I'm New England, I certainly would freshen up that deal.

That's one of those stuff on digs is gone. You can put him in and you've got to have that security blanket for Drake May. Got good running game and build off of that, continue to make the offensive line good. And maybe you can surprise people again and go back, you know, deep, make a deep play off run.

Yeah, Paul. There are some new odds for the team to acquire Max Scrosby. There are two teams tied and then it drops off a lot. Ooh, are those two teams. Marvin, I'll let you start.

The Chargers. Nope. Todd. The Titans. What?

Going off the board with Titans for 500. Okay. Okay. The New England Patriots. The Buffalo Bills.

It's the Bears and the Cowboys tied for Max Scrosby as of this morning. Well, the Cowboys were in up until the final moment when he decided to go to Baltimore. Or Baltimore made the better offer, but we wondered about that yesterday. If you're the Cowboys, do you re-engage? You just got Rashal and Gary.

The Bears, that had been rumored, I don't know if reported, but rumored for a little while there. A couple of phone calls here. Let's see, Dan in Naples. Dan?

Hey, if you want a real perspective of how big wealth was, there's a really famous photograph of Arnold, him, and Andre the Giant. And out of the comic book dorks, I love Conan the Destroyer and then I was like, "Who's that guy?" And then I fell in love with basketball because of that.

But really is perspective on how massive that year was. Yeah.

He was a legitimate 71275, I think that's what he was listed in the program.

I don't know if it ever changed. It feels like all of the programs that I saw had him 71275. And that's probably what it's going to be if you go to basketball perspectives or NBA, that they got him at 71275.

Nathan in Virginia, I Nate, what's on your mind today?

Uh, if I'm long time, 71275 pounds, I will.

I have the set of the day for you because 1997, the Washington Wizards, has only 955

pounds. Since entering the league in 1997, Kim Duncan, who's been retired for over 10 years, has over 1,000 wins. Instead of the day, instead of the day, this is the start of the day. That's been a long time.

Now I go back to the bullets, you know, Washington bullets, and they had some great teams, but, you know, sometimes they'll get a good player and then he won't be on the team much longer than that. Yeah, Paul.

Can anyone guess the last time the Washington Wizards, or whatever they were called, had

a season where they won more than 50 games, more than 50, where they called the Wizards at the time. Yeah. Great question, double checking, they were not, so we're entering a different century millennium to have this to say, I was going to say, 1996, 96 season, they were 44 and 38

Dan. I'm going to give you a bloop because they did make looks. Yes, Marvin. I'm going to say, 1979, Marvin is correct, 78, 79, 54 and 28. They lost the finals, they went to the NBA finals that year.

Yeah, Dick Mata was the coach, Elvin Hayes, they won the finals the previous year and it's

been famine ever since. Like accidentally, you can get better, right, 50 wins is not, I mean, it's not that difficult. Yes, Marvin. Not over 50, I mean, you could stumble into one over a 50 year stretch. The Sacramento Kings of 150 games is 1979, not even the John Wall Bradley deal, Gilbert

Arena's, you guys couldn't sneak in a 51 game season, auto porter, auto porter junior, Dick, Nick Young years, 2016, 2017, the Wizards were 49 and 33, too close to the sun. Yes, Marvin. Are you a totter? It doesn't only take something out of football's parody playbook, but you're not going

to go that many years where you can't get significantly better. No, and it's a big market, too, but yeah, that is, that is no man's land, that's basketball's

version of getting a timeout, go to your room, where am I going, what?

You're going to the Wizards. Anything, but that, yeah, it's Marvin. As Jordan Paul, I got pushed to the face and I got traded to Washington. What would you rather get punched in the face and stay with Golden State or you get traded to Washington?

Ah, then easy one, I'll take the punch, I've been punched in the face before. Yeah. Same. That you punched me in the face if I could just get away from Dream on Green. Oh, I would gladly take the punch in the face and the trade.

Easily. Yeah. Yes, Todd. Unless it was a skull fracture or an orbital bone thing, I'm staying with the Warriors. I'll just get the treatment.

Let's see, Robert and Sacramento. Hi, Robert. Morning, fellas. You know, I've listened to a lot of people get upset over Italy and their people and have been more Americans on their team than Italians.

But I do remember a time where dual citizenship was used for, for USA basketball with, you know, that wonderful American Hitchie Malazuan playing for us and Patrick Ewing and Tim Duncan.

I think he just goes to show that if it's happening against United States, we're not happy

with it. I don't have a problem with it at all. It doesn't matter, you know, who's from Puerto Rico, who's from Mexico, only in those countries, if they, you know, have a problem or don't have a, like I don't care, I'm just watching the game.

If you qualify with what they're asking you to qualify for as far as ethnicity, but we just

Look for things like, man, I got to be mad today.

I got to be upset today.

You know, all those guys aren't from Italy, okay, yes, Marvin.

And three of us in here are married to Italian women.

They have a real love and appreciation for being Italian, right?

So I can understand that. It's like, hey, my family's from the old country. I may have been born in Virginia or Connecticut or whatever, but you know what, we're going to celebrate the old country. So fine.

Eight in the Utah, hi, eight in what's on your mind. Yeah, well, I wasn't going to call him today, but I saw how low to the necklace was. I figured you had time to squeeze me in there. All right. But yeah, I want to, I want to, I want to talk about Tyler Murray a little bit.

His work ethic gets thrown around a lot, you know, how he, it might not be the best, but he was 42 in all in Texas high school football. He won the high school. He won the high event.

So the top 10 pitch in the end will be in a number one over on the NFL and one offensive

rookie of the year, all while being under six foot, I don't necessarily believe he could do accomplish all those things without having some sort of sustainable, respectable work ethic. Oh, I just think he was more talented than anybody, everybody. I, you can't put the language in a contract and then say, well, you know, he accomplished all these things, so he has to have a work ethic.

When the team says, we need you to study, then that tells me you were so talented in high school and you were so talented in college. When you get to the NFL, you got to study, but the fact that that got out. So this is his own team doing this to him. He signed a contract.

He didn't say, I'm not signing this contract. I have a great work ethic. They questioned his work ethic and rightfully so talented player, but the fact that they knew that he was in studying, he's so good that he could still put up good numbers. But at some point, he's not going to be that elusive, that electric, and that's where

you have to have the knowledge to be able to somehow outsmart teams.

And if you're not going to put it in the time, the effort, you'll be bouncing around. This next stop won't be his last stop. Let's see, peacock and Alabama, I peacock, what's on your mind? Hey, Dan, five, ten, two, thirty, five. I got a question for Seaton.

If I remember correctly, don't you have a USL-2 team scarf up there? I think I should have a portland, parts of pine. scarf up here. If I send you a dose, and you nodded one, would you put it up there? Hell yeah.

May that do the Simipar last year, putting up a heck of a team this year, hoping to win it all. All right. Yeah, send it in. Send it.

Yeah. Seaton is scarf face. What do I do with the food? Yeah, nice. Yes.

The loop. Mother crab and blue. Scarface. Scarface. Yeah.

Yeah.

I might start that as an, like, Instagram account or something, and it's just--

Like, it's all we do is go over scarfs and who's are the best and who's are not. Yeah. All right. We'll take a break. More phone calls coming up.

He became the first bachelor to ever have his final rose rejected.

The internet turned on him. If I could press a button and rewind it all, I would. But what happened to Clayton after the show? Made even bigger headlines. It began as a one-night stand and ended in a courtroom with Clayton at the center of a very

strange paternity scandal. The media is here. This case has gone viral. The dating contract.

Agreed to date me.

But I'm also suing you. Please search for it.

This is unlike anything I've ever seen before.

I'm Stephanie Young. This is Love Trapped.

This season, an epic battle of he said she said, and the search for accountability in a sea of lies. "I am done nothing to get murdered by the f*ck Brassler." Listen to Love Trapped on the I-Hart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Nancy Glass, host of the burden of guilt season 2 podcast.

This is a story about a horrendous lie that destroyed two families. Late one night, Bobby Gumpride became the victim of a random crime. "He pulls the gun, tells me to lie down on the ground." He identified to remain Hudson as the perpetrator. The main was sentenced to 99 years.

The best lie is partial truth. For 22 years, only two people knew the truth, until a confession changed everything. "I was a monster." Listen to burden of guilt season 2 on the I-Hart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts."

Hey, I'm Jay Shetty, host of the on-purpose podcast. My latest episode is with Hillary Duff, singer, actress and multi-platenerm artist.

Hillary opens up about complicated family dynamics, motherhood, and releasing our first record

in over 10 years. We talk about what it's taken to grow up in the entertainment industry and stay grounded through every chapter. It's a raw and honest conversation about identity, evolution, and building a life that truly matters. You desire in family like this picture, and that's not reality a lot of the time it's

for people. My sister and I don't speak, it's definitely a very painful part of my life, and I hope it's not forever, but it's for right now. Listen to on-purpose, with Jay Shetty on the I-Hart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

It's been pointed out to me by several people that the Cardinals did remove the independent

study clause from Kyler Murray's contract that was in 2022.

I think they did that as a PR move because they embarrassed him, and I think they were

trying to, I don't know, smooth that over a little bit there, because I don't want my franchise quarterback being upset with me because I have publicly outed him as somebody who doesn't put it in the time or effort, but the damage was done, that they were going to put that in the contract, and the fact that they did tells you about his work ethic. We didn't bring up Geno Smith going back to the jets, and you're going to applaud Marvin?

I was, I was going to happy to hear that, okay, come on Jay, see, see, see, see, ask somebody put out on social media, the number of quarterbacks that the jets have employed over, I don't know how many years, it feels like it's 100 years because it's like 30, 40 quarterbacks who have gone through there. In fact, the list was so long, they even forgot to put in Christian hackenberg in there

and just wanted the jets quarterback, slap in the face, yes, see, there's something just unusually cruel to me about this trade in that the Raiders are sending Geno Smith and the seventh rounder in exchange for a sixth rounder, good grief, I didn't know, there's just something about that to me that feels like, what do you got to kick the guy for when he's down, like, just come on.

And we thought that maybe Minnesota, I've been saying for the last couple of weeks, it's probably going to be the jets, I think Kirk Cousins was a possibility there, but that

feels like the Raiders saying, what do you need to take him?

Please, but if you look at the jets quarterbacks, so I don't know how long this stretch is, Paulie. It's from Geno to Geno, the last time Geno Smith started the game until they required him. OK, Matt Sims, Michael Vick, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Bryce Petty, Josh McCown, Sam Darnl, Trevor Simian, Luke Falk, Joe Flacco, Zach Wilson, Mike White, Josh Johnson, Chris Strevalor,

that you're making that one up, you threw it up again. Aaron Rogers, Tim Boyle, Tyrod Taylor, who else is on that list is I try to bring it up there, Paulie, Justin Gilfield, Brady Cook and back to Geno Smith, possibly.

OK.

Wow, that does seem right there is the root of the problem.

If you've had that many quarterbacks and you still haven't solved it. And they miss out again because if they had the number one pick in the draft, then we would, you know, say, sorry, you got for a knife, you'll bad for Fernando Mendoza, even though the jets should be better than the raiders this year, it just, well, wait, you can take one take away, OK, so they're due, so you're take away as they didn't have any takeaways.

And now that they're going to be worse than the raiders.

I mean, tomato tomato, if you want to do, uh, bite of the, oh, raiders, jets.

A bolt at a bolt. All of the balls. Yeah, it's Paulie. The jets haven't made the postseason since 2010, OK, but they're not the Dolphins. Once the last time the Dolphins, how many times they made the plaves?

I know they made it a couple of years ago, they lost Kansas City. Yeah, Dolphins have had. Four playoff appearances in the past 23 years.

I think the raiders, two playoff appearances in the past 23 years.

How many playoff wins do the Dolphins have over that period? None. OK. All right. Yes, Todd.

How's that going to go to the play, rather go to the plank, uh, Mike, I got, I stepped on your line there. OK. That's a new slogan you have for the jets. We're not the Dolphins.

That's like a nice rallying cry, but on the cover of the meaty guy. All right. Thank you, Todd.

Let's see, would you update the poll results, please?

Heck, yeah, I'd be happy to do that, Dan. OK. Do you believe that the ravens were trying to pair tray Hendrickson and Max Crossbeat together? That is up to 90% believe a new that is not the case.

I don't think they were trying. I think it sounds good. You know, when the GM says, hey, you know, this is crushing. No, you know what's crushing? Max Crossbeat.

It's crushing to him. Yeah. You fly across country. You're ready to go. You got the new start in your career.

Are you going to play for a contender? And then you're told you didn't pass your physical. But it's, I brought up to Ross Tucker. I want to know, OK, what is it that you saw? Because I, I, I feel like I, I have the right to know what you saw on my MRI

or my X-rays. And I don't know if players get that information. But I don't, maybe the player's association, can we ask, or ask Floreo for it's he, and then we can try the player's association, can, can you find out? Could Max Crossbeat legally find out what they found out in his MRI?

Because it's his results. And they, unless they don't want to expose themself from the fact that, hey, this isn't true what you're saying, and we're just trying to get out of the contract. But see if Floreo has some information on that. And why?

Oh, man. Hi Sam, what's on your mind today? Hey, Dan, Dan, that's in the 40 back room, guys. This is a quick question. Did the Steelers over pay for Max Crossbeat just respect the Ravens?

I mean, at least, one, you know, turn him with TJ Watts, at least. One of them should be available, you know, for game day. It's not the worst idea. But here's the thing. I don't know how healthy Max Crossbears.

I know that he is going to have to get healthier, but that goes along with knee surgery. I don't know what the Ravens saw, but two months after surgery, where they go, well, you know, what we're concerned about, you know, long term. What is long term in the NFL? I just want to know, can Max play for the next two years at a high level?

Yes, Marvin. But is it a good idea in general to get two high price items on your defense?

Were you paying two guys 30 million dollars?

Like, that's not a good idea to me. Well, wait a minute.

That's what the Ravens we're going to do is Max Crossbean train 100%.

Yep, terrible idea. Oh, that's insane. Yeah. Actually, it's bad period. Like, I'm going to get bolted those guys to not win the Super Bowl.

Nick and Irvine. Hi, Nick. What's on your mind today? What's on my mind today, Dan, is as I'm sitting on traffic, trying to work my way down to the LBC. The radio game in LA, billion dollar game, as you know, and I've just been sitting here

for years in the morning being entertained by you guys. And it's just unbelievable watching the talent from the ESPN channel, which is the Lakers channel. You know, it's a big deal in LA. And you have beaten down Stephen A and Max, and every, from the very highest talent on the

Other side.

And just year after year, guy after guy, and it's not just because of you, Dan, you are

the anchor literally, but you put together this miraculous energy of people.

Well, thank you, Nick. It's too bad we had to cut him off as really curious. I know. I know. Yeah, call back anytime, Nick.

Final hour on this Thursday, seat in Polly, Mar, Fritsi, yours truly, and the back room

guys. It's a team. It takes a village. I'm Clayton Nackard, in 2022, I was the lead of ABC's The Bachelor.

But here's the thing, Bachelor fans hated him.

If I could press a button and rewind it all I would, that's when his life took a disturbing turn.

One night stand would end in a courtroom.

The media is here. This case has gone viral. The dating contract agreed to date me, but I'm also suing you. This is unlike anything I've ever seen before. I'm Stephanie Young, listen to the love trapped on the I-Heart Radio app, Apple podcasts,
