This is the Downbeat. I'm ninety seven to one for free. Name father in law nearly Bobby Brown Thin. Here's morning news coming up in about thirty minutes. Great for that butt the Dayton of Downbeat. Eight thirty five, got a bet payoff, got a cold call an old acquaintance of Mike's. Mike did something good for him when he was a teenager. Yeah, well I thought you were on my side. Type of action happening at eight thirty five is we're gonna call Ron Gilligan. What if he's been searching for me
this whole time? He might have been this guy might have started an empire based off of your push yep when you got the autograph of Richard Petty and Dale earnhard for him. Yeah, maybe he's been looking for you for decades to give you your commission check for starting his business with that pass. Yeah, that pit pass that you got signed for him. All the money he saved on not upgrading his website was supposed to go to me. Maybe he will, Maybe he still has it, maybe he'll return it. Yeah,
thank you. If we in fact get him on, do you think you're going to ask him about the quality of his website. No, we'll leave that to Kevin. No, I will ask you for your questions. That a layout, it's very confusing. I don't make fun of his website, nineteen ninety seven style website. He's a small business dude made off Geocity, So I'm serious. That website is like when my friend got a computer and said, hey, check this out. It's called the Internet. It really
is the early days. It's vintage. You know what. Maybe he's just embracing the whole vintage culture. Yeah, maybe he is. He's probably a highly successful man, and you know it only takes calls by appointment. I'll tell you what we're I bet we're not far away. It may already be something that exists where people are going to embrace the streamline, simpler, archaic, vintage look of a website. Okay, I think cable's coming back, so yes, right, maybe go to our Gilliganauctions dot com. Heyban,
Even if he doesn't answer, well, let's get him some pops. Yeah. I also want to dump this out there for everyone. If you have anything crazy happening on your next door app and see a wild post from your neighborhood, copy it and email it to meet Kevin Turner at iHeartMedia dot Com. We're gonna do a neighborhood watch later in the week at some point.
Also Friday night at the Kessler. We've got a big event happening. It's involving the release of a new single from Danny's new project, Danny and Skin's new project, The Silver Skylarks, which their new single will hit all the streaming platforms Friday, Friday night to eleven pm. I believe. So can we tomorrow? Maybe? Yeah, we can play. We talk about it. Maybe we'll get skin Man in here and get him to kind of he's better telling the whole story than I am. Yeah, you know, he's
a good promoter. He's he speaks better than I do, and he's got a better memory than I do. So maybe we can get him to kind of walk us through how this whole project came to FRUITIONE Okay, maybe nine tomorrow, Yeah, yeah, if if he's game, I didn't have he didn't have MAVs or anything. Tomorrow suit right, Yeah, MAVs play the Sun's Thursday beginning on Thursday. We'll see tomorrow Thursday. We're ready from MAVs feedback to you know, where I'm gonna watch the MAVs on not I'll watch
it at my home. But now you know how I'm gonna watch it. I saw this last night. I'm gonna watch it on HBO. Yeah, they're on Max now, Yeah, the MAVs are Yeah, the MAVs sons. I saw their Well it's it's a tn T game, so but yeah, T and T sporting events are now available. That's how I watched the All Star Game was on HBO because I forgot to set a recorder for YouTube TV and I wanted to rewind it and start. It was like, oh man, I thought I hadn't all my NBA stuff already preset, but I
guess I didn't. So I was like, you know what, I think this is on HBO. When HBO was able to rewind the game to the beginning, watch five minutes and turn the damn thing off just like the rest of America, I wanted, h yeah, well, we'll waf Skinning maybe Wednesday or Thursday if you can. But yeah, Danny's new single, Danny
and Skin's new single. I guess the Silver Skylarks that I'll hit Thursday night at eleven on the streaming platforms Friday night, Friday night, I think so, yeah, I think Thursday night, rightday night for new music Friday, right maybe maybe not soon anyway, maybe we'll world premiere it on our show. Let's do it, but at the Kestler's rather hang out, been in Skinner. Give away tickets to that. We're going to wear some college baseball tickets as well. More on that later in the show. Right now,
Let's do this. Kevin Kevin, Kevin now sport. Before we get into Jerry, Tyron Smith said he wants to come back, So any thought of him retiring or just kind of moving on probably not there. Now. He is a free agent, so they could choose to not what's your what are you hearing on that? I mean, they're not gonna let him go anywhere, right, And I don't think so. I think you bring him back. And I'm sad he would take a friendly ish deal, you think,
I think so, Boy, that's tricky. I don't think Tyron. What I know about Tyron, I don't think he is the type that wants to go, you know, uproot and go play for the Titans. You know, boy, you okay? But I could be I could be wrong, Now, there's thought. I also didn't think, like I can see Zach Martin retiring before before Tyrone. Not that Zach Martin's retirement's imminent or anything, but I could see Zach like Tyron. Despite how quiet he is, Tyron
loves it and he I think would be the type two. It's hard. I don't I talked to him in a while either, but I think he's the type would be like, Okay, I know I want to do some things after football, but I'm not sure what they are. You know, Travis Frederick retired, was like, oh yeah, I'm starting a Dungeons and Dragon's company. Like, I don't know that Tyron has that. He might. He absolutely might, but I don't know that. I just like eight
Pro Bowls, two All Pro selections, ten your career. He's almost done enough to just be a Hall of Famer already. I think he is. I think he is too, and pretty healthy most of last year. So it's also fun to say that he's thirty three weird because we all know how he started at nineteen or whatever. He's so young. He's just not that old, but mileage, he's got a lot of miles. I want him
do whatever he wants. But I just loved the dude, and it felt like it's not like for us to vote on what he should do with his career, but he's just compounding injuries. I would very much salute him if he decided to call it, but it's something he wants to keep going, probably for a few more. There was a thought that he would be replaced by Tyler Smith of North Crowley, So maybe he knows where that that monitor lizard is. Yeah, that was missing that we covered so prominently last week.
But now it's kind of like, I think, kind of Tyler Smith can be my left guard and we can just like I'm in no hurry to move twer Smith out to left tackle. Tyron played thirteen games last year, so he's gonna miss four or five games. We know that at the least. But he's still good, so I you don't have to give him top of the market money like you used to have to do. You don't have to do that anymore, So I'm all in on bringing him back. You look at you watch this closer. Is he still good? Is he above
average left tackle in the NFL if he's healthy. I think he is, But that might be a question for even like jeff In A Kavanaugh or whatever, who's looking at websites that actually grade that stuff out. But I don't remember a game last year going well, he just got his ass beat, he got his Tyler Tyrants was terrible today. No, I don't remember saying that, but there are certain plays, but I guess everybody gets beat. No, No, of course, I think he's still fine. Yeah,
so if you don't have to pay him a ton. And the article did say from the Dallas Morning News that Cowboys officials were pleased with how he played. So I'm putting back in there now, Jerry Man. It would suck to be in your eighties and be like, I've got to go to court today. That's bad enough. I have not tried to spend any of my time in court. So they're expecting a Dallas County judge go to court to rule on it. Jerry has to complete up eternity test to prove if he's
the father of twenty seven year old Alexandra Davis. This is still going on. You have enough of that crap on file from previous trials, you would think, right. So they have a big hour long hearing yesterday down in the George Allen Court Building. You guys ever been to the George Allen Court Building. I'm sure I have that you have? Jerry? Is that where's that? It's down off okay yeah, Riverfront Riverfront? Yeah okay, yeah,
that's sometimes called Riverdale Riverfront. I've been there a plenty for Jerry duties, journeys. I'm sorry, journeys. Jerry's attorneys called the genetic testing an invasion of privacy. Should not be having to do that last year. You're in an invasion of privacy if someone walks into the restroom mid wank right, Yeah, no, no, I'm doing it for science. So, like usually when I hear lawyers speak like this, I kind of just my eyes. But this is another one that's kind of funny, all all this stuff.
Kevin has been excited about this story since five point thirty this morning. Yep. It's just funny to imagine at eighty one man, the Kentucky Fried Chicken Man, going in there with a magazine and he's trying to knock one out. I mean, he's on the TV behind you. Look at that. Can you imagine? Oh okay, make me someone got ahead of you already and they said you don't have to go to the doctor's office anymore. They send you home with paperwork to order the cup online and ship it to
the lab. Then they just call you once they get whatever you're sending in. It's his. Yeah, how do you know it's his? Uh? You told me he's not going to play a little game DNA. Yeah, I don't know. I'm sure they have a way for a trial. For a trial, we got to know, we get it into it in front of the jury. Yes, no stone unturned. So last year, Jerry and alex pro of that kind. Have you ever provided a sample of that kind? Almost daily? Oh? No, no, good daily? How
are you not haveing KAF spasms daily? Look at Kevin, I wouldn't know. Last year, Jerry and Alexander's mother, Cynthia reached a settlement where Jerry would financially support them as long as they did not publicly identify him as the father. It's just like that's the hand raise and the yelling out of guilty, that's all that is. But Alexandra is like, no, I want testing done. I want Jerry to be my father. Now, keep in
mind, Alexandra has a bit of a She had some political aspirations. She was working in the office of a hard, kind of extreme type of representative out in West Texas. She's learned some political tricks. I think she was an intern uh for Trump uh during at one point of his administration. So a judge did rule that Jerry was subject to genetic testing, but his lawyers appealed. And that's why we're kicking the can down the road. Why this is back in the news today. All you appeal it, push it.
It's all you do. You kick the can. Now. That's what a successful trial trial lawyer does is just prolonged, just wait, wait, just appeal this, appeals delayed. I don't know what they do with their contracts. Sometimes too, it's saying I don't have a restructure, move it back. We're pushing our money back. We'll worry about it tomorrow. Would you guys like to guess just that if you had to imagine three lawyers for Jerry, just kind of what they might their name might sound like, because he's
got the most Jerry Jones sounding lawyers on this case. And if you don't want to guess, I'll just teller. One guy's name is Buck this he where's a hat? So close suit and cowboy boots for sure. Briefcase one guy named Hat Johnson Okay Johnson, Senator Royce West, Levi mcathin, and Charles chip bb Cusipes fell off. You need a soft nickname, chip Buck. They argued that Davis already has a presumed father and the man her mother was married to when she was born. Okay, that's her father, not
Jerry Now. His attorneys also said the government the government does not have the right to subject someone to genetic testing unless there's a good reason, adding that curiosity is not grounds for that. Just because you're you're curious about it doesn't mean he's got to go jo and a cup. I don't disagree with that. Yeah, I don't either, but I'm surprised I needed to wait for a texture to mind me. What isn't that a mouth swab? It is?
Now? Yes, it's just fun to talk about it, Okay, Kevin, Kevin Well, I think you say this is all a lie. No stone unturned. We're doing mouth swabs, and we're doing He said, you don't need a wank and a cup for a paternity chest mouth swab will do w t F. I know that, but we're you have to dress it up for radio. No you don't. Heavens the scenario of Jerry with his pants down around his ankles, standing in front of the jury, hunched
over. If I'm the planet, over, if I'm to pay, falling off, if I'm the plant, if I'm appealing saying give me mouth swab and give me the milk they swabbed to get DNA Neil, no wank required Jones. Okay, okay, experts, Well they're They're all, why did it takes for you and I to realize this? Wait, because we're excited because we knew he was excited. I a little bit. But yes,
that is true. They don't have to do that anymore. But but if they would ask for it, you gotta know if she really wants to know. So, Jones's lawyers have repeatedly argued that this is extortion, of course, but Davis has already gotten three point two million dollars from the agreement that her mom had with Jerry. She's getting four years of tuition at SMU,
trips around the world, and a seventy thousand dollars range rover. She's having a pretty kick ass life not knowing who her dad is it's basically full admission. You get it all except for any chance of getting any cowboy. Yeah, that's really firm because they and I think she is smart enough to know that. She thank you, but no, you're my daddy. You owe me the money. I get a piece of the cowboy. Yeah, which is pretty smart. Boy. I add that. And that's the Alan Ruck
character in succession. Okay, you see what I'm talking about. You have Shiv as Charlotte. Connor Kieran is going to be Jerry Junior in this case. Stephen is Jeremy Strong and this is Alan Ruck. Cam from Ferris Bueller's Day Off is Alexandra in this case. Now, Davis's attorney say that Alexander's not the child of her mother's now ex husband, But at the time, her lawyer said, Jerry's got two options. You either acknowledge that you're the
father or take the test. Why are we even fighting this if you're not the father. Take the test. And he's like, well, we're not gonna do that just yet. Go and kick that can instead of filling it. What if you had to do that into an old rusty can, the old soup can with a label with the lids still kind of clinging on the side, or or a spatoon because you left it somewhat attached so you could drain the push drain. Uh huh. It's really fascinating to think about it.
I mean, she's the mean, how many kids does you have? He's got three? You think does he have three that we know? Right? Just that's it? The three? I bet there's like seven. Oh yeah. Would you be surprised and they're all even if there had been sort of privately acknowledged and funded on some level any other kids. Keeping a real close eye on this thing, that's very interesting. Like I want my golden ticket to Daddy, right, you think you're buying me off with a range
Rover, I mean a trip to Majorca all. I just wonder too, would she feel that way if he would have made time to go have lunch with her over it? Go have a bagel with there at Shugs. Yeah, like go to Eastern Champton, pop into the Paradise Bakery over there by Smu. I'm just thinking of all the places that are right by sm U. Go have ice cream? U What did you say what they're at Baldoz? You know, like just stop in well, I have a little lunch
with her. Why she's in college? Does she still have that agenda? Stop naming Highland eies? That's all this is because someone gets in her ear, probably correctly and says, you do you know what You're possibly entitled to a billion dollars? Yeah, I don't know. You are some sort of owner. I don't know how it works. Your dad, I guess he's not obligated to uh give the Cowboys to anyone, right, No, he could give the Cowboys to Danny Bayliss. That's Daily Bayliss. And to me,
that's the thought. He ain't giving it up till he dies. Who's in the will? And it's succession. It is the TV show succession. It continues to be. It's always been that, and now you just like add this character and you're like, hell, yeah, what a good twist for season forty seven or whatever. This is of him owning the team. I mean, Jeane's probably number one in the wheel. I would imagine.
So if he but Jean passes on, if he's got his umbros at his ankles in the office that Kevin has put him in and he croaks, he's Sambrose. You think the Cowboys I'll get past the Jane. I think the order of succession in my estimation would be Jane, Steven, Charlotte, Jerry Junr. Now there's a thought that it might not be Steven over Charlotte. It could be Charlotte over Steven. Can it go I go and and Gene? And then may be like Jean got the yacht, she didn't. He's
not a part of this. It might be I, you know, have the kid. Those kids are gonna start fighting or aren't they? Maybe not? It can go to a family trust I'm imagine using words, can you give it to all of them? Does he have to name? Because like Stephen will be the I don't know president of football. Whatever. What if Charlotte wants to be the first female GM? Well, Amy Trask, I guess did that for a little bit, but shoot, no, I guess how Davis was the GM too. We do not want anything to happen to
Jerry Jones, but check your actuary table. So I mean it's gonna happen sometime in the next decade. You can talk about it with our current president. You can talk about the Jerry Jones. They're the same age, and that succession plan has to be already completely decided upon, right, I mean, because who knows if it's tomorrow or in twelve years, it's probably been decided on for a while. You would think, yeah, maybe some modifications along the way. And that's where you say it's Gene, So which kid
gets it first? And well then Gene could change it too, right, go full Charlotte? Was it? If? And and maybe it's like not as simple as maybe there is a mess up in the will, just like there was on succession. Spoiler was like he wrote my name, he wrote my name crossed out. Oh it's underlined. I don't know it's crossed out. I just see Jones. I can't make out if that it says Stephen or Charlotte. I mean, I don't know. And but but I promise
you, I promise you. Charlotte's not going down without a fight on this. I know she like she would want this, but that what do you mean want this? It's not you think one of them gets everything? No, like, but someone's going to be the owner in the GM. That's they're all going to get some percentage of ownership of the the organization. Right, and he doesn't die and write who the GM is at his will. Please tell me he doesn't do that, and that can be all decided step
for it, right, but I want to do it. He doesn't. You don't pass on the general thirty he's got thirty probably had discussions about this, and they they probably know. I bet they haven't because they never really did on Succession. Remember they did have television program, Kevin, they didn't have They didn't have conversations about what was going to happen until that final season, and they were always scared to talk about it. I think Jerry has
a little bit better relationship with his children the succession man did. Maybe. I wonder then Logan roy Baby and I always have the impression that the kids all get These kids all get along, but you know that doesn't necessarily make it true. Why the hell would I know that anyway, But it seems like they get along well. Yes, And Steven has done the most work on the football side too, well it has had Charlotte, but actual team stuff. I think Steven has done the most. But I wonder if it
just goes to one nerd or how that works. And then alexhole Star you have the half of Frisco. I mean there's so much, and the twenty seven year old Alexander's like, let me in. What if he give me a chance, just gives it all to her. Oh, incredible, incredible. She renames them fantastic. All right, Coming up next, it's tempting snake's on a plane. How about maggots on a plane? Stick around,
