You made some bold claims Kevo that you were gonna well, you had two doctors appointments. We can check in on those in a second. Then christ I did have two doctors appointments, and then Packers, and then you were claiming to maybe just stay up till twelve thirty when the ryder cup started. It's been in bad fifteen hours. Yeah,
they got my stitches removed, which wasn't that was He's good. I went to the doctor and she was in shock that I hadn't been to a doctor in like ten years. It was like a physical. It was just like, hey, I need to get a doctor up. That's up here, physical not my hometown doctor. Well, she held back on the physical when I told her at all my prescription stuff going on, and she goes, oh, god, let's do blood work. When's the last time he did it. I was like, oh, maybe before COVID. I don't
know. I was like, my thyroid pills. Insurance hasn't really been picking that up for about I don't know, a year, two years. I'm not real sure. She's like, how are you not dead yet? I was like, thanks, doc. She was sweet, though she didn't say that. She said, you're going to get a lab on Monday, and then you're coming back to see me in two weeks and we'll really do this. It's time that you grow up. She gave me the tough love I
needed. Are you serious? They were very sweet? You're you're bouncing around here? Was she sweet? Or did she how are you alive? That? Yes, that's what I needed to hear. And you need to grow up. Yeah, she had my best interest at heart. I knew by being firm with me. Sometimes doctor Melfie needs to deliver some hard news to Tony Soprana. She let him just kind of do an he once for a long time. Oh so you got your blood work done for the first time and maybe a day. I have to do it on Monday. I have
to fast on Monday. This is good, It is good, this is good. You need to be very regular in visiting your damn doctor at a minimum dentist as well. But doctor, blood work basics. It's time. Yeah, it's always it's always been time. I stepped on the scale. I stepped on the scale and she goes, oh really, and I said, it's a comedian doctor, I said, he So I just did kind of get off a weekend of eating nothing but cheese, courage and drinking beer. So give like, keep in mind that I was on a three day
fried food and beer bender. So I normally live about ten pounds below where I'm at. That's about where I live. And she goes, you know that's not good enough, right, like you need to be lower than that. Yeah, he spent the weekend feasting on the home grinn platter. You sure did. It was good. What do you do? You want to tell us? What's your what's your tip too? Mat or No? You don't have to, you don't, I don't want you don't want to?

Two thirty eight? Whoa? You are good at this? You are good at this? Fantastic And I was like, I'm gonna live around two thirty what's your
dream weight? I don't even know what is the dream weight of a man? I don't know. You know, it is odd when you were to the doctor, like I think I am by some measure, certainly obese. Yeah, I'm obese. It's on my app then I'm obey because they send you a thing and it tells you notes from the appointment you're obese. Is
one of huge letters. And I was like, god, yeah, it's a tough scale that they're working with, and it's probably a hundred year old scale for their obesity, like over technically overweight, obese, morbidly obese. Honestly, Kevin might be morbidly obese. Yeah, no, you're mean than his doctor. And I'm having a by definition, you know, I don't mean it like that. No, I'm having a it is I'm I'm obese.
And she's like, you're gonna be diabetic soon if you don't watch it, man, And I said, all right, well, I'm gonna have a big weekend and then get it all out of my system and then on Monday, I'm gonna start fasting and I may never eat again. And that's the plan. She's gonna come up with a health plan for you, right. Ope, not dude, I'm not one of those guys who's like, do this and this to make sure that you're good when you're fifty four.
Why aren't you one of those guys. I've already not. I don't have a long time. You don't know that you could change that. I was till a long time ago. Fifty one is probably good for me. Okay, we need sep who told you that you have the worst doctors, and and look think about it like this, Kevo. If you're able to make some adjustments. The doctor makes some good sound recommendations, and you try to, you know, incorporate a little bit of self discipline. Baby steps,
and it always starts with that. It's a little bit at a time. You don't have to conquer rome in a day. I know that's not the cliche, but you know what I'm saying. Babies that may improve your sleep, not baby back ribs Kevin step one ye write that one down. Yes, you may improve your sleep, possibly once you lean out as I do a morning show though, I think that's a part of the equation. And one thing and she goes, huh, let's station. Oh yeah, I'll
be at the one year anniversary party next Thursday. I can't believe you guys got brand new funk. He wants to move on, and I kind of like how, I'm just saying it. Once you, once you take the first of the of what will be many baby steps, and you will have a great support staff with Mike's roy and myself, Yes, encouragement, love, accountability of love, this room and JJ's room too, Gentle nintender, we will be You're gonna sleep better, You're gonna have more energy because you're
gonna start walking. You're gonna start walking half an hour. I'll do that. I mean, I woke every day, but let's get some I go to the gym four times a week. Is that accurate? Is that a factual? Statements? Be three to four? I think one three and a half. It's what you told her? How old Jim? Every other day? What are you doing? But I if it's a Friday, then I don't do it on Saturday or Sunday. Very often. I do go on Saturday sometimes. Okay, I got a fitness center, then this is dietary,
right. No, I have the worst metabolism of all time. Like the Low Tis. I'm telling you the Low T Center years ago. Loved them because I want there to get checked out. And they did the score thing and they go, Jesus, this is the professional Maybe I mean I interpreted that, but it was like they were like, yeah, you got a real low score here, and I was like, so, So the point is she's like, we're gonna get your thyroid figured out first, then
we'll go from there step on. So we're good. Who why are we talking about me? I am not important. You are important. You're important to us. You're the one who's going to Buffalo, speaking of speaking of the land of fat people that drink and eat a lot, where are you going this weekend? I'm going to Buffalo, New York, and I am have budgeted myself to eat like a madman this weekend, going nuts. Oh yes, isn't it good? I'm doing all of it. It's gonna be
wings. I have three or four places, these famous joints. I almost looked up a wing tour it was, but it was by bike Buffalo. So you bike and you go to the famous wing stops all throughout the city and you try wings there. But when we decided to screw the bike part, so we just wrote down the names of the places and we'll drive to them and then eat more of the wings there and have no time restrictions. Uh. Yeah, we're gonna go crush food bev. I'm gonna do a
visit to Niagara Falls. We're gonna take in the Miami Dolphins against the Buffalo Bills at one pm Eastern Standard in Buffalo, New York. This is our last season playing in the state medium that they're currently in, and I think they're getting a brand new monstrosity. And we've always wanted to go to this stadium. I mean, this is you know, we're Dolphin fans, so and we've taken a lot of beatings up there, and it works out perfect
because there should be a great game. It should be the game of the week. That's all amazing. They changed the TV maps, they got rid of Bears, Broncos, they got Bill's Dolphin. Yeah, so they went around the regional yaing good. Yeah, God. But as you prepare to go to a majestic place like Buffalo. I was telling Christina last night, look at you. Here's a little girl from Crandell and you're going to Buffalo, New Your man is taking you to Buffalo. What a lucky lady,
Buffalo, You Buffalo. Who would have ever thought it when you were a little seventh grade girl sitting in Texas history class and you're in a flying airplane to Buffalo. Would you ever have dreamed you would have gotten into a flying car with wings nation Buffalo. I'm a Buffalo, New York, of course. But as with any trip I'm taking, I mean, the headline is obviously the football game. Everything's built around that. But then what else do
you do in Buffalo? You know, and you start looking, weather's gonna beautiful, like high sixties. Oh yes, clear, I think it's gonna be flawless, which I'm looking forward to. Was in Green Bay real quick, fifty two to fifty seven at night, Yeah, I mean just amazing and no win, hardly any win. And in the daytime, I mean the game time temperature was sixty nine degrees. Yeah, so good. That's almost exactly what we're gonna be looking at. And then you come back here
and you're like, god, I'm sweaty. Yeah it's ninety seven. But the main thing you do if you go to Buffalo, other than go to the Anchor bar Kevin, eat wings, eat beef on wick, eat hots hot dogs. The main thing to visit would be Niagara Falls. Have either of you visit? Did Niagara Falls? No? Not to my memory, JJ, Niagara Falls. No, the majestic beauty. I've not been that farm north. I went when I was a little boy and we were on
the Canadian side, and I'm pretty vividly remembered. I mean, there's something to see, Like I think it's kind of crappy around it. There's casinos. It's that we've done, what could we've done? What we'd do and surround our beautiful things with T shirt shops. But I remember being incredible the Canadian side, the Horseshoe side, the famous side. There's an American side as well. It's a little choppier and different, but the gorgeous Horseshoe Falls
of Niagara. And I went when I was a kid. We went to this museum and it was about people who had gone over Niagara Falls in barrels and attempted to do so the history of that, and man, this museum stuck with me almost much as the falls themselves did. It's just incredible. And they have the barrels in there. You're like, so I went over the I've been over that. In this just incredible to see. So I did a little research project last night on the history of this, okay,
and I wanted to run you guys through set. Do you have the dimensions in front of you as far as how big of a drop that is? H Yeah, I do. Niagara Fall is the highest flow rate of any waterfall and all of North America that has a vertical drop of at least one hundred and sixty feet, which this does vertical drop of about fifty meters hundred
and sixty feet. Since eighteen fifty, more than five thousand people have gone over Niagara Falls, either intentionally as stunts and or suicide attempts or accidentally. Five thousand people. Now they know this because they've found about that many bodies at the bottom. So in one hundred and twenty two years since then, since eighteen fifty, thousands have been swept over the falls. Only sixteen people have reportedly survived the feet out of five thousand and give or take, that
have gone over the falls. And all the instances of people surviving have been over the Canadian side. That Horseshoe Falls, the famous one that you've seen that's on postcards and everything, that's more beautiful than the other. The very first successful going over the Horseshoe Falls was nineteen oh one, was by a woman Annie Edson Taylor. She did it on her sixty third birthday. She did this intentionally. She became the first person ever survive a trip over Niagara
in a barrel. She was poor and she's like, this will make me rich. I don't know how this works. Back in nineteen oh one, with they'll put me in the papers, and she had a custom made barrel for her trip constructed of oak and iron and padded with a mattress, so sort of an iron outside. This was an oak barrel. Two days before her own attempt, she put a domestic cat in her barrel and sent it over the falls to see if the cat would survive. Baryl didn't break.
Cat survived, and she's like, through it. I'm going for it. So on her sixty third birthday, they put on the side of a rowboat. She climbed in along with her lucky heart shaped pillow. They screwed down the lid. Friends use a bicycle tire to pump some air into the barrel. They plugged that hole with a cork and over she goes sixty three years old on her birthday and up down floated it, relatively uninjured, little gash
on her head. She made it. Did she get paid? She ended up not making almost any money, and no died penniless, as they all do. But she was quoted as they asked her would she do it again? She said, if it was with my dying breath, I would caution anyone against attempting the feet. I would sooner walk up the mouth of a cannon, knowing it was going to blow me to pieces than make another trip over the fall, Like how scary it was? You know, the Niagara
Falls has claimed the life of an MLB Hall of Famer. Okay, well it's not Roberto. That was a plane nineteen o three Ed del Hanty. Year they put O del Hanty in the Hall of Fame. He made it. It's the first time you've ever heard of him. His numbers stack up. He got kicked off a night train for being a drunk and disorderly. Kicked off the train and he fell off the International Railway bridge into the water and tumped over the side of that bad boy. Body mangled, one leg
severed. They found his body. Okay, let me ask you this is the because it just seems to me like if you were a hundred feet that doesn't sound that tall if you're talking about landing in water. But it's got to be the rocks that are at the bottom or what kills people. Right nineteen o one lady landed on She probably was able to land in a part that was just water. There's multiple things. It's the power of the whole thing going over and yes, you get caught under the water coming down and
it crushes whatever it is. There are rocks galore down there, and things that go over get caught in the rocks and behind the falls, and you just get stuck there forever. Okay, So to make it over, stay on top of the water, not hit the rocks, and make it out into the flats again is kind of the key to this whole thing if you want to survive this. Bad Boy nineteen eleven. The second successful dude Bobby
Leech. He was a Barnum and Bailey circus man. He went over the falls in a metal barrel, barrel, metal barrel, spent six months in the hospital covering two broken kneecaps a fractured jaw, but he did make it nine face slammon up against in everything. Yes, these people are idiots. Nineteen twenty eight. Jean Lucier, the third successful, went over in a
large ball with a spring, steel frame and rubber covering. And if something is proven to be more successful than anything else, it's using a rubber instead of wood and metal. Yeah, you know, a little softer impact. Ye, So that turned into the preferred method. Here's a crazy one though, okay. One another guy who made it, Nathan Boya in nineteen sixty one we're talking and we're getting closer to modern times. He went over the
falls in a rubber ball nicknamed the Plungo Sphere. The ball hit the rocks on impact and bounced. Boy was uninjured and he made it over. That turned into one of the more successful ones. This is a crazy one. Seven year old kid Roger Woodward was swept over the falls in nineteen sixty. Woodward and his sister Deanne, they were in a twelve foot aluminum fishing boat like a mile up stream. They lost power and they started going toward the
falls. Oh oh hello. The boat subsequently capsized from the rapids. Dan this sister was pulled from the river just twenty feet from the brink of the falls. That's the one I can't get over. Imagine that scene in nineteen sixty. You see people floating, flailing, and somebody rescued that little girl by grabbing her arm twenty feet from the edge of these falls. And then thing gets humming as it's about to go over the edge of Nagara Falls.
And we are talking about Niagara Falls and people have gone over the edge could reset. But Roger, the kid, and the older guy, James Honeycutt went over the falls. Roger, seven year old kid who was wearing a life jacket and remained buoyant, was rescued by the Maiden of the midst at the bottom of the falls. Seven year old boy in a life jacket, no barrel, no, nothing's unhurt, survived. I doesn't say that's amazing. You know what this goes to show how exponentially fast the modern era of
technology evolves. Because you're talking about thirty years before they realized, you know, we shouldn't move from wood to Thirty years ago we barely had the Internet, and now we have artificial intelligence writing anything that we need better than we can do it. A segment for another day. Ye can't handle what we're doing right now. It's happen. It's happening faster, one hundred times faster than it should. Then we can process. Then we should be able to
process. Another dude at eighty four went over in a barrel. His only injury was when he made impact his wrist watch hit him in the face, knocked a tooth out, but he survived as well. Eighty five, Steve Trotter went over another kind of a rubber barrel. He made it. Other people have made it, and then tried to do it again to prove it wasn't a fluke and died hard. That's the second time. Yes, why did you ever? I don't know. I'm good I did it, so
you know what they did. They proved that it was a fluke and then tried to get it on camera the next time. The deaths were even crazier. Jesse Sharp nineteen ninety went over the Niagara Falls in a plastic kayak. He had intended to continue paddling on the river after the fall and had a dinner reservation at a restaurant four miles downstream. Did you make it? After beginning hit the plunge, he quickly disappeared into the falls. Although his kayak
was later found, his body was never recovered. He just thought he was gonna calibunga and land a complete calibunga. Sharp decided not to wear a life jacket in case it impeded his escape should he get trapped under the falls, and he refused to wear a helmet in order to keep his face recognizable to the cameras. After he succeeded Absolutely crazy and then one of the wild this One's nineteen ninety five Robert over Overaccer, he went over the Falls? Is
he real? Dramatic change? Roberts over at He later changed his name to Jim Carrey. He went over the falls in ninety five in a jet Skis my man, you're gonna google this. There is video and a still photo. Make it. He was trying to raise awareness for the homeless, as many of these people are doing. His rocket propelled terror chute failed to open. Rocket propelled. He had a parachute with the rocket. This was a go and then blow him forward. It failed to open. He fell to
his death. Oh my god. Yeah, it's crazy. It's a fun deep dive going into the things that have happened at Niagara Falls, which is where I'm heading it up in Buffalo this weekend. Uh, it is very illegal now to do this in any way. Obviously they made it that way in like nineteen fifty, I think. Uh, but yeah, there's some wild stories. I think the most recent survival documented his twenty nineteen and uh that was illegally or yeah, well this it may have been a suicide attempt
that he accidentally survived. You don't know, because apparently he climbed a rail and they appeared to intentionally jump into the water up and over and then he was found. And then he was found at the Lower Niagara River basin, sitting on the rock at the water's edge, where he was then arrested. That's amazing, pretty cool. So anyway, I'm going to Buffalo to what you guys think. I'm going to watch the Dolphins and the Bills play football.
But let's just say so Roy Industries might be heading up there to change the game. On going over Niagara Falls the first twin brother tandem. Maybe there's rockets, maybe there's parachutes. There's definitely rubber up and over we go, drawn am, stay out of the water, Brod. I just want to get in for a second, take a picture, then I'll get right back out. He can't help it, though he loves the water. I'm not gonna be there to save you, dude. I would just say,
keep your eye on the news this weekend. No, absolutely, that's all I record tracking that. Thank you, Mike. We will watch you on Monday and Tuesday, but we'll have we'll cover it up and we'll look forward to your stories on Wednesday. Coming up next. Zeke is back in town. What does it all mean? Though reguly you look back at the most important thing in the world, the reuniting of the cowboys and Zeke so on Sunday next, and nice up one three
