Pix with Glenn's picks with Glenn's picking games against the spread with the guests Celebrity pix with Glenn's in all my friends picking games against this read with the guests on celebrities, hit it fantastic, huh hello JJ mouthing the words, including the oh, it's a gem all right, swhere. We picked two NFL games. One of them has to be the Cowboys. One of them is any game you like against the spread with a guest celebrity.
We'll get to that in a minute. Celebs are leading this thing. They're tied, actually, all the others are leading. Celebrities are twelve seven and one, and we've had some some big names. I don't know if any of them as big as the one we got coming up in just about a minute. The Glens who called in and one of them represents all Glenns tied for the lead at twelve seven and one as well a rock solid handicaper and can handicapper of candy named Danny Bayliss. It's at ten to nine in
one. You're in third place. Your two year old son Malcolm is at ten and ten bat in five hundred, KT is at nine and eleven. JJ right near the bottom of the pack at seven twelve and one. But don't you were you're beating somebody. That would be me another zero to two last week, fade me, don't follow. Big Shale is six thirteen and one on the year. I'm terrible at this. So the deal is yesterday,
we spin the wheel. It lands on a letter. Whoever that letter we need to find a celebrity, either in our phones or somewhere to join us. The corresponds with that letter. We've had some big ones. We had Uncle Rico from Napoleon Dynamite. We had Dick Valentine, the great lead singer of Electric six. We had Joey Chestnutt. We had TC Fleming, we had Mike the Mosquito Mescotto. You never know, the spectrum is large, you said, Noxie, right, we had Jim Knox. I mean,
come on, yeah, who's bigger than Naxie on that list? Well, I got somebody bigger than Oxie. I think you do. That is the man joining us right now, international rap superstar. His name is Hamel Heinrich. He is in the band Laser and Laser begins with an L. So our celebrity day is the great Homel, who have not spoken to for a while, never have spoken to on this station. Hamel, come in. Do you have us? Hello? Norm? No? Yeah, Hey, it's Mike. I work with Norm for a long time. I'm not
with I'm not with Norm anymore. I'm afraid I'm at a whole different radio station. Hamel Korby's not here either, So just to get that out of the way. Hey, Hey, hey Mike, Hi Homel. This is my friend Danny. Mike. Hey, good afternoon, Danny. Nice to have you. I appreciate you. Thank you. Whether we're talking today, uh, we're doing picks NFL picks and they don't really matter that much. We more just want to check in with you. Are you calling from uh?
Are you in your homeland? Are you in rhyan Land? Are you local where you're calling from? Yeah, I'm over here. Put the music on hold and been doing some security with Laser Crow recently for the Frankfurt games. Oh, the NFL games. Yeah, I've been learning a lot of stuff about NFL, so it's a perfect topic to discuss. And yeah, just hit me with any questions I know about NFL picks. I know Deon
Sanders had a lot of NFL picks, so I'm ready. All right, Well you need to pick two games, Hamel, you said you put the music on hold? Is that? Is that true? Is there not any new laser piping hot raps coming down that we need to know about anything at
all? It's just a temporary humanitarian pause while I do security stuff. Like I say, so, you know, we're going to bring back some more wraps here, you know, a few months from now, but priorities, mister la I'd like to ask a question about maybe some of your fellow bandmates. How are they doing and are you staying in touch with them during your humanitarian hiatus? Uh, you know, I tried to avoid those guys. We pretty much just you know, get together when it's time to make the
monies. Briso is extremely annoying. I don't know if you ever heard any of our albums, but we're pretty much, you know, we're not really friends. We just have a lot of talent and a lot of chemistry for music. Yes, so you know I talked to him only when necessary. I spawn tredular as a ninja, so you can't really get a hold of the guy CRT two thousand. He got faced out when the HD monitors and flat screens came in, so I don't know what's going on with him.
He's the one who had the television set as ahead. Yes, yes, yeah, yeah, got Laser crowl though. I mean, I'm I'm working with him right now, keep programming him, you know, for different missions every day, mostly Frankfurt games and Gadza stuff right now. But yeah, other than that, not a whole lot. Okay, got phased out because of flat Street. Yeah, aged out. Love it all right, Hamel Heinrich from the band Laser, thank you for being our celebrity picker today.
You have to pick two games. One of them has to be the Dallas Cowboys. So I guess let's pick that one first, and let's get your very very detailed and hot prediction about what's going to happen this Sunday. We have the Cowboys on the road in Carolina. It is Cowboys favored by ten and a half points your thoughts. Okay, Carolina tar Heels, sure close. Okay. Is Kenny Gantt playing? I believe he's on ir not playing? Okay? Who did the rock and roll Indian? Pick the rock and
Oly need to picks after you, so you gotta go first. Okay, I'm going Carolina. Okay, oh my god, Dean Smith? Yeah, all right, so ten and a half points Carolina Panthers Carolina plus ten and a half. All right, Now you do have to pick one more NFL game? Did you have one ready for us? Sorry? I'm not sure who's playing. Okay, let's go at random. Then let's give you how about what do you think random? You know? Yeah? Random? Random? Just grab one? All right, tell you what. Let's go tonight.
Let's just rip this band aid off. We got a good game. Tonight is Bengals at the Baltimore Ravens. Cincinnati Bengals against the at the Baltimore Ravens. Ravens are favored by three and a half points. Do you know a lot about Ravens? Yeah? I do know a lot about predatory birds. I'm gonna say if Ikey Woods is playing Bengals, if not Ravens, all right, I just checked as you were asking, and Ikey Woods is not not playing anymore. So you're gonna take the Ravens minus three and a
half. Correct, I'm going to Ravens, all right. Beautiful Panthers and Ravens are your celebrity picks this week. Crow had seconded this choice. Okay, the Crow, the Crow. It's very sweet of Crow. All right, Hemel, thank you. Anything else we need to know anything? You can point us in any direction laser music that you've done in the past, if you want us to still support it, you know, I always do. I think you guys are some of the finest international rappers that we've ever
had live in Arlington. So I don't know point people in a direction. If you choose n I'd rather they not listen. It's very meat too music. I don't want to promote any old stuff. You know, I'm saying it doesn't age. Well, it's well, that's why I gotta take these security gigs and stuff right now. But you know, I love you. I love what you do your bodies and stay naked. Guys love it. Stay naked. All right? There he goes. That is laser representing the
letter L Hamel Heinrich. The Crow and laser Crow stay naked. If you know, you know, and if you don't know, you're probably wondering what the f just happened. Even if you don't know, it's still fun. I agree, it's still fun. Ohmel, he got off, Mike, what an idiot? Already took the ravens and the panthers all right, Time for the Glenn. Let's do the person on the phone. You're representing all the listeners. There are dozens of listeners to this station and this show out
there, and this is just one of them. Who do we have on the phone right now? Hello? Nick? Nick, you have a voice that sounds powerful and have some gravitas. I can just tell that by you simply saying your name. You sound like someone who's gonna do things the right way, and I'm encouraged to hear your picks today. Thank you. I modeled after you, mister Soroy Dallan's Observer Hosts of the Year. I really do appreciate using my formal title applause. Thank you, Thank you so much.
What do you do, Nick? What are you up to today? I'm off today. I do sales first computer software. So how's that going. By the way, it's actually doing pretty good. iHeart one of our clients now really, yes, so we have fresh new computer software. I don't know. They keep using it for fart sound, is what we're told. So that's what we were planning though. Let's have jjest test and see if your computers working right now. That sounded good? Yeah, that sounded
right. Yeah, I think we're fine. You don't need to come in enjoy your day off. We don't need you today. You've earned your paycheck this week. Sir. Well, I'm trying to learn it a little more if he's picks hopefully all right, Nick? Right, yes, all right, Nick, Cowboys first on the menu. Ten and a half is the line they are in Carolina. What are you thinking. I'm thinking they're gonna beat the spread and hopefully have to repeat it last week where they just blow
him out of the water. So Cowboys all the way, Cowboys minus ten and a half, you know, is the Glenn's first selection and one more NFL game, whatever you like, Nick, I'm gonna go with Kansas City over to dirty Birds. I graduated from Tech and I hung out with Patrick a few times, so I got to pick them. Yeah, you have some cocktails, get any trouble, any wild stories, anything you can share, nothing radio appropriate but a few Vegas bombs for sure. Okay, well
we'll talk. What do you got? Kansas City out there? Minus two and a half? Oh minus two? Yeah, they're at home hosting the Eagles Sunday Night Football two and a half point favorites Kansas City Chiefs. All right, Nick, thanks dude, real quick before I go. So, I got a friend he wants to play call. Do you if his name is Ben Rogers? I was about to say, yeah, Nick's breaking up and then you finish that. Yeah, are you in your cell phone giving
a bad cell? Nick? Do you just go through the tunnel tunnel now, the one by the Addison Airport, the only tunnel in w all right, Nick, but yes, I'm in Sherman. Nick, stay naked. All right, Thank you have a great Thanks. That's very sweet. I like the vibe of Nick. Yea. He sounds like a guy that I want to have a beer with. Absolutely. Nick and Patrick Mahomes, maybe more Nick than Patrick Mahomes and Jackson Mahomes. We would have a much much
better time Nick than we would with Patrick. I promise you you know, I I do agree. But Patrick came on a video call on that golf racing thing I wanted to do today and they asked Hi about his golf game. He's like, man, I gotta crack some cores. Lights man to five? Yeah, they said what's the right number of course lights for a golf game? And he said five or six beyond that's too much? Yeah, but I mean he could have, you know, played at Wimpy and said, oh, just a couple. Yeah, but he said all down
a six. I mean that's he's a cool dude. Like his doctor would tell him he's an alcoholic. If he's doing that every day, I'll bet you'd have a fun time with Patrick Mahomes. Maybe, Okay, I think he's better than you. Then you're guessing, all right, maybe you're right
if I get five beers Patrick Mahomes. Yeah, but I kind of get the idea that he might be. He might be really interesting and fun for the first hour you're kind of getting to know him, and then once you get down to once you get over the oh my god, he's probably really obnoxious and you're kind of like, yeah, let's go over here, all right. Anyway, it's good to meet you. Even Nicks like, yeah, this is about the time I would walk away from the Patrick scene.
It's been fine, all right, Glenn's are locked. You have Kansas City and the cow Boys. Let's do Malcolm, let's do it. This was yesterday after we had just gone on a walk where we chased down the bulky trash crane. Yes, so once a month you have the big crane that picks up trash and dumps it into the big other other trailer, tractor trailer that's that hauls it away. He's obsessed. We watched for like thirty minutes. Yeah, and he wants to see it cleaned up the streets of DFW
Cleans. We just got back to the house and whipped out the phone and here you go, Hey, Malcolm, guess what time it is? What time is it? Do you know he wants? I thought it was time to go inside. Oh okay, I miss it. Do you know us? Time for football picks? You ready for football picks? Okay, let's start with the Cardinals and the Texans. Card You're taking the Cardinals? Okay? Why hmm? Okay okay, And then that now ledges us with Cowboys
and Panthers. Do you want Cowboys or Panthers. You betting against the Cowboys two weeks in a row. Huh, that is some stinky poop. Now, question you sure you don't have any reluctance in picking the Panthers since considering what happened last week, you feel good about it? Still? Okay? All right? Anything else you want to say? What? Hi? Hi? Hi? Hi? You want to say hi to jj Hi? Do you want to say hi to man? Do you want to say hi to who else? Kt? Who else? There's one more? Is it unforgettable?
Right? Yeah? You don't remember, do you? Who got you golf? Mike? Yeah? Who got you golf? Golf? You love Mikey? Nope? Daisy? Okay, guys, guys, you're playing with pipes, playing with pipes. Uncle Mikey plays with a pipe sometimes crack pipe. Right, yeah, alright, bye, don't say crack pipe to your kids in the same sentence as mining what you call your crackhead. You will remember crack pipe, his new car wash crack pipe. No, Malcolm,
he remembers everything, all right. So I got Malcolm down for the Panthers and the Cardinals, and that kid's smoking me. That handicapper is killing me. Yeah, yeah that guy. All right, let's get hours in. Yeah, just knock him out. Yeah, I got KT's. He text him he was gonna call in, but I don't know what he's doing. So he wants to take the Cowboys to cover ten and a half, and his second game would be Washington, Washington, the Commanders minus nine and a
half. They are playing the Giants, and uh yeah, everyone thinks the Giants arena get murdered by everyone. He really the Commander's nearly a ten point favorite, but he's got Cowboys and Commanders JJ, yep, you got a girl. Uh, of course the Cowboys are in a row. It's crazy to go against them, especially the one and nine Panthers. Sorry, Malcolm, I'm sniffing a comeback. So yeah, I got the Cowboys and then, uh, I'm also gonna go against him and pick the Texans over the
Cardinals. Really, man, I'm I'm sold. You're feeling Yeah, they're killing it like you're exciting watching them play and c J. Stroud, who I thought should have been the first quarterback out the draft. Honestly, you seem right. Yeah, that's what Carolina might be thinking too right now. So yeah, give me the Texans skyrocketing up the MVP ranks among others. Man, yeah, I love it. Five and a half point Texans over Cards. Give me Cowboys. I just the last week was a horrible error
in judgment. I didn't see that coming to that degree. Probably more of the same this week, but who knows. It's ten and a half. You kind of expected maybe a bigger spread, Yeah, a little bit bigger, So maybe they know something we don't. Probably lose my shorts on that one, and I'm gonna take the Steelers plus one against the Browns. Okay, no reason. It's basically a pick them, and I'm gonna. I think the Steelers will. I think what the Browns did last week was silly.
I've been nothing but wrong on Cowboys picks all year. I love taking bad teams getting a lot of points. That's why I took the Giants last week. That was foolish. I should the Panthers. But I'm going against what I think, so maybe I can get back on track. I will take the Cowboys minus ten and a half. You're right, why seventeen and a half last week? I know the home thing, but ten and a half seems like a fairly low number, but give me the Cowboys minus ten
and a half. Panthers offense is just bad. I'm gonna also take the Bears plus eight and a half points they were at the Lions. The Lions are sitting at peak value in the eyes of betters. Everybody love that pick, by the way, I almost took it. Yeah, I like the Bears plus eight and a half. The lines have given up a ton of points even though they keep on winning and they're seven and two. But the Bears do get Justin Feels back this week, so it's I like taking pics.
They are hard sometimes. Also, the Lions, you just keep waiting for the other shoe to drop. And they're primed, I know, favored by eight and a half. They are so primed not to lose the game, but to definitely not covert. Yep. So there you go. There's picks with Glenn's thank you to the band Laser representing the letter L and Jamel Heinrich, who we out some texts of very confused but very entertained people who have yet to meet the band Laser, and uh, thank you everybody else.
Thanks to Nick who participated for the Glenns and good luck. Let's win them all, except for the ones that we're conflicting on. Then I hope I win. Ding. Who's morning news coming up right now? The headlines, there's three huge ones. Let's go with this one, A wild Wild McKinney, Texas murder tale. We will open that up next
