You're listening to the Downbeat on ninety seven to one the Freak if you had, we'll break it down. Game four Rangers went eleven seven last night. We'll get into that at seven o'clock. Tell us the Downbeat duel coming up at eight ten. It involves Candy, more Rangers stuff throughout the entire day. Thing Good Morning News, eight thirty, Game five tonight in Arizona. It's the most important thing in the world that does ostensibly involve the Rangers.
Yet here that's the spotlight goes towards the Rangers, or has been on the Rangers for the last month, after maybe half the metroplexes able to see their games all year, and half the metroplex probably wasn't able to see their games all year. Who knows. I don't know what the percentages are on that. But this happens. Every time you get in the playoffs, people start
finding out more about you. This team not the fun, wild and crazy eyes that the twenty eleven team was, or the twenty ten and twenty eleven teams were, with characters like CJ. Wilson and Derek Hollin and Elvis Andrews and even Adrian Beltry I think would fall into that. Mike Napoli and Darren O'Day chance. You know so many stories from those years. This team a little more subdued. Who's the wing nut on this team? Hedges, a guy who doesn't play. Yeah, you'd have to know pretty you have to
fall fairly closely to you know who Austin Hedges is. It's Hedges and Will Smith. Those really well. Smith he's more stand up comedian wingnut, more funny guy wingnut. But you'll be the judge of that. Yeah, let's hear some of his best stuff. People are saying, oh, that's just Trump, that's you doing Will Smith's Trump. He looks like the guy who does Trump. He looks like James Austin Johnson, Scooby Doo doesn't do. So you find out more things and you're okay, let's try to learn about
these guys. We've had conversations about Corey Secer and Marcus Simeon being absolute just guys in their nutshell at all time. I'm trying to crack that nut Well story came out yesterday. So the one one as they go back to Phoenix Sunday, they're working out at Bank One Ballpark or Chase Field. They're working out there and they were ordered about fifty hot dogs to the clubhouse because they wanted to eat a bunch of hot dogs after Sunday's workout. Now, hot
dogs pretty bad. You think of baseball players hot dogs all the time. Well, apparently the Rangers can't get hot dogs at the American Eraine, I mean at the Globally Field because there's no hot dogs available in the resort like kitchen at Globalize Field. So these guys who never eat hot dogs, they don't eat the one dollar dogs that get served of all of us peasants. They're like, got some hot dogs would be great after Sunday's workout, and
they just start gobbling hot dogs multiples. Mitch Garver said, hot dogs get the guys right. We're a fat team. We need fat guy food. I started going out. I have a fat doll on the team. What's he talking about? Low has unusual body, he's funny figured, he's funny figured, and he also wears his pants weird. Well, his uniform it seems like it's like a half size too small for him, so it kind of accentuates his odd form. I think I said that one Astros game seven.
Yeah you did. I have a similar body to Nate Low. No, much more fit than I know, far less fit than Nate Low. So back in mid September they were in Toronto. I think you're a right fit bird, Mikey, thank you, regular bombie. They said, a bunch of guys ate hot dogs off the non gourmet spread in the visiting clubhouse. I'll listen to dllas morning news. By the way, So they swept the Blue Jays after crushing hot dogs, and then they said Mitch Garver was
eating them by the bunch and at the ALCS in Houston. And it's weird to me that they can't get hot dogs at Globalife Field. I don't understand. I don't get it. Why can't they get them? It's a ballpark, I know, But you're saying earlier in the day before the hot dogs get cranked up upstairs. Yeah, and that's certainly they could send someone up to get whatever they want. And their kitchen they're more nutritious, Yeah, hot dog. That's changed much with their team, you know, but they're
still like fifty feet away straight up from a bunch of hot dogs. They didn't want to go to the trouble of contacting the Delaware food service vendor, and why can you come in a little early and hook us up with some of those Nolan Ryan beef hot dogs. I mean, you know how times have changed as far as they're nutrition. I remember the first time I ever walked into a major League baseball clubhouse, and it was probably ninety nine or
two thousand in Port Charlotte before the Rangers moved to Surprise, Arizona. And when you first walked in to their spring training clubhouse, the spread that they had right there on the kind of communal table, it looked like, seriously, it looked like Malcolm's haul from Halloween last night, just stuff laying about, chips, crackers, snacks, beef jerky essentially, like if you had one thousand dollars to spend on on road trip food at BUCkies is what their
food looked like. And hot dogs. I think we're part of it too, Like they just had wrapped up hot dogs oil hot dogs exactly. So now it's, you know, full circle, completely different. What are you doing. I'm looking for my damn cord because the whole reason we're doing you have audio someone saying hot dogs, we love hot dogs, and then laugh, and then they play it again. Yeah, we might play it twice.
This is a hot dog bum The Rangers aren't the team known in the Metroplex for sports, it's the Cowboys, or for hot dogs, because the hot dog boys are the Jones family. Oh this a homemade hot dogs. I'd just tell me on sausage the sticks, it says even better than the hot dog. This is a god this man, this is a hot dog bun? Is a hot can. Just listening to someone who did your conversation, people run the most lucrative franchise on the glow. That's two billionaires talking.
One of them said, where do we get the hot dog bun? Walk down to the concession stand and find out what I think it's the hot dog bund. I think it's the hot dog too, Daddy. It's unbelievable to me that this exists. This is a guy, spiderne how do we find go down and get it. Look at the point, Well, he liked the flavor of the bun, So go down to the concession helpless?
How to find out what brand of bun? That? Maybe it was a Hawaiian role like Mikey made a burger with the Hawaiian broad This the other day was WILLI delicious a smack of sweets. It's not the It's not about the bun. It's about the process of finding out how you find out what the bun is. And then that involves using your legs and feet and walking to
the little concession stand and just asking someone working there got a bunge? All using back there actually, and then I'll tell you to tell you it's missus Bards. It's what they'll tell you. Who wonder who was it that was making the extolling the hot dog on a stick? Jerry Juice, shut down, Jerry Junior. You need the bun was a good bun, Jerry Junior. They tried to sell me on zaucage on a stick. I had to sell on the stick dog. It's beautiful. What is a hot dog?
That's the thing it's But also find out what kind of bon it is. They may have some little system of warming the bond, softening the bond a little bit. You're gonna have to learn a couple of steps too. And you think Jerry's gonna put that in the notes of his iPhone. I will say that the the bun at the Wriggly Dogs in Chicago is different. They do him differently up there. It's almost like a folded over piece of white bread. I like that, yeah, because there's an element of crust to
it. It's good man. The Wriggley dogs are damn the lish that. I prefer a nice boiled hot dog to a grilled hot dog. That's a little odd. A cooked boiled hot dog if you like that to boil, I mean, if you do it perfectly on the grill, fine, But I don't know what's at split open. Okay, I like the split too. I like both those things. Daddy, is that a bun? That's a hot dog? Where do we get this bun? I don't know. Stephen Jones is blown away by WEE can't We could never find out what bun?
This is impossible question since send one of your grandchildren over and at to find out what is that from? So it's when they were on All or Nothing, the Amazon series, and they're at one of John Stephen John John's football games, okay, and was waiting for Live Tyler to pop in and and there the Jones family is enjoying a hot dog. I mean live Shreiber Tyler Live schreiber Man. Why does she get such a manly voice because they Kevin might know. What's the status of that Jones kid at Arkansas? Is
he? I mean, it's been like four years, hasn't it. Is it time for us to do They don't think he got to play much? Is that why they drafted Douce Vaughan so he could get away with drafting John Wayne Jones for whenever that pops up, Like, I did you the favor of Deuce. Look that worked out. So one of those kids works in the front office now, like legit, okay, John Stephen Jones. Sorry, I'm looking this up, but I he's at Arkansas right now, but
I don't know if he's still there though. Transfer the guy, I don't think he was up, but he was always so small. But that was like a huge that when that game happened, that one hell Mary game. I mean, that was a big story around here. John Stephen Jones, it's a crazy name. Five eleven, two oh five. I have him. His last year was twenty twenty one, so he's done, he's graduated. He played three games as a freshman in eighteen threes a sophomore nineteen.
Yeah, I guess. Yeah, he didn't play. I mean he was short, man, it's tough. I bet he's in the organization. I he works with the Cowboys. Oh of course he did. Thinks a lot. Spalding's a scout. He eats serving ice cream at Broms. Spalding's a scout, is he really? Yeah? Yeah? Yeah, Well go Rangers. They didn't make a single trade yesterday either. Yeah. Forty nine ers out there moving and shake every other NFC contender did. The Cowboys said, man, we gotta find out how we can get these hot dog buns.
Yeah, they're looking for hot dog bones. I mean Skin set out of the radio for about six months when he was doing with cancer. The best contribution he usually ever had to broadcast because when he texted us, I can't believe the hot Dog boys screwed this up on some cowboys story. So funny those two birthdays. Yeah, and we'll do it. Would you have to
dedicate the birthdays? Just anyone mind today your special moment, Mikey. You know it's for all the fireman out there and women are there you go, yeah, we're the comedy first responders, but this was for actual for top fires. Malcolm was a candy first responder. He was. Yeah, he actually went to a house where it was an actual fireman that gave him candy. Really yeah, dressed in his uniform. No, no, no, but you just knew. Yeah, he had like a you know, the
softball bat you fireman pretty much. He looked he was either a strong man in a in a circus or a fireman. But he also had the fireman shirt. They don't like the navy blue T shirt that firemen will wear when they're off duty. Yeah, he had twenty four hours off. He was wearing a guns and hoses tank top. Not a bad sticker to put on the back of your car if you want to avoid getting any type of traffic tick Oh yeah, you know what. That never worked for me. Back
in the eighties. I always tried to back the blue, but still got pulled over because my inspection sticker was three years old and there was weed smoke coming out of the passenger window. You know. The best move ever was and I living flag Staff and snowed a lot, and my tags were expired, and I just would pack the snow in over my tag so you couldn't read it until it like iced over and keep it for like a month after the snow stopped birthdays. Okay, Matt Jones is forty two. He was
badger on breaking bad. Okay, not Matt Jones, the former Arkansas quarterback. We went to the Jaguars and I was sure it was going to change the NFL. And then they moved to wide receiver he tightened quarterback. Yeah, and then I hadn't thought about him. Yeah, you know what, he had a drug thing, right, say that? I think maybe he did kick in? No, No, he's doing great. Vector Are you

level of achievement. Yeah, it's great, outstanding. I mentioned this hot farty line. I think you're onto something here. There's a cross somewhere. It's like it's the girl. I can't take it. And he's absolutely right, Sir Silverman is in the hot party votext. There's tons of gals that just have a very a really good developed skill of being able to hang out
with dudes. But no, no, no, but but my point, there's there's a point here that just naturally are able to do it where everybody's like, man, that chick is so cool, she just like, you know, hangs out with the guys. Then there's the girls that try too hard, that try to overdude themselves, where it's so so forced and so annoying. That's Jenny McCarthy. I'm cool. I fart, yeah, like, oh my god, like like like girls that act like dudes that you
would never want to hang out with. That's my point. And there's just I don't want to hang out with dudes a fart all the time? No, I don't. And then like ask if I heard it, Like no, I don't know.

Those two are married. M Gary Players eighty seven. Mike do it for Sevy the Black Knight. Yeah, claims to have flown more miles than any other human on planet Earth. That doesn't work as a pilot.

You will, yeah, I will. You'll accept.
