This is a down Beat on ninety seven to one the Freak. Look, we got thirty minutes away for you to take money from us or concert tickets. If you want to go see Australian Pink Floyd, you know we can do that for you. They're playing August twenty third at the Tweota Music Factory Australian Pink Floyd Mite. But we want to give you money by breaking out something called down Beat dollars for now tentatively called down Beat dollars, And the
way it works is a lot like pressure luck. We'll have the board up on our little TV in here. You'll pop on the air two one four or eight one seven seven eight seven one nine seven one. I ask you a couple questions. If you get three questions right, you get three spins. Two questions right, two spins, one question, one spin, and you'll just say stop when it's time, and then we'll find out how much money I owe you with your information? Will venmo you writer it for the
show. We're gonna do this for you. We canna give you money. We'll put on Venmo. If you do not have Venmo, you're gonna need to get Venmo. Okay, it's the best way to make it happen, right, But look, it's gonna be fun, and uh, it's got a Super Bowl tie in as well. We'll probably play a round one kind of a first draft with JJ. Right, okay, all right up and get that set and good to go, just to show the audience how this
works. But it's gonna be fun. Make sure you're calling in and if you want to call in and get ahead of it and wait on hold, wait till about seven fifty five. All right, that's what you could probably start doing that seven fifty five and we'll get that going at eight o'clock. All right, let's just scuttle. But now it's brought to you by Parker University. It's Parker dot EEDU. Ben don't have some stuff on the Super Bowl ads, but I think I'm gonna save that for tomorrow. So start
here. There's a new streaming service happening. Gonna be real quick on this. Disney Fox Warner Brothers all announced a new streaming service yesterday. They're joining together. They're gonna launch this thing in the fall. Again. That's Disney Fox Warner Brothers. They're gonna offer streaming. Let him tell the story. I mean, he can't take another streaming service. Skin has had enough with
cable. The service is going to offer subscribers all the channels owned by this company ESPN, ABC, Fox, TN, t FN Plus, and it'll give you ESPN Plus as well, hopef you want those extra games College football fans comes in handy. There fourteen channels total, is what it is. This is all sports, mainly all sports. Yeah, yeah, pretty much
all sports. The price in the name of it have not been named, but you'll find pretty much everything you can find the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, golf, tennis, racing, five, soccer, all the stuff. Now you can put plenty of sports on one app, bundle it all together. But you're still gonna have NBC, who's got rights to their stuff. CBS is still gonna have rights to their stuff. Amazon's they got the rights to their stuff, and regional sports networks are still you know,
that's where most people watch. The Rangers, the MAVs stars not gonna be included in this. So a lot of people think this is while getting big headlines and people are talking about it, it's really still not making it easier for anyone to watch all the stuff they want to watch the bad news. If you're a guy like me and y'all, I think it is seen as a competitor to YouTube TV. Think about all the people that have YouTube TV just so they can watch sports. Know what you have, dude? Yeah,
Kevin, you too, right? Yeah? And I kind of love it. You do Hulu Live, right, I do? Yeah, Hulu has live sports. They have live sports, but sodas every other app pretty much, including This'll pat you on the head right now. You did good. So, I don't know, it's all interesting. If they charge let's say they charge fifty dollars a month where they charge on YouTube TV right now, sixty sixty five seventy somewhere around there. I don't know if that's a
big enough DNT to make me go drop that and get the other. If the Riots take some of these things off of YouTube TV, that's where we have a problem. Okay, Look, as long as you've got your networks and you've got ESPN, you think, well, you think YouTube TV is gonna lose ESPN? No, okay, but you've got ESPN. You've got your networks for all the NFL games. Once they get this BS ironed out with Bally's where we can actually have broader access to our local regional teams.
Everything's going to be fine, right, I think so, But then everything else you want is just all a cart I think there's not an u information about what's gonna happen here yet, you know, because if they what if it is like, hey, yeah we're ESPN, We're pulling it our stuff off YouTube TV and we're going fully exclusively to this new thing ESPN, Fox, Disney Plus, whatever they're gonna call this, you know, they may just call it Sports Plus. And there's a's some Is there a breaking point?
Yeah? Just get a stuff where you just keep you keep reappropriating your content and pulling it from the big platforms like YouTube TV, Hulu Live, fu Boo or whatever, Fubo, I don't know, Sling, That's what I'm thinking of, like the ones that kind of give you an old school kind of cable cable TV feel. At some point, if you're just having to piecemeal all of these things out, are people just gonna get like, man, I'm not doing this. It's got there's got to be a centralized
location for all of this stuff to exist, and that's just frustrating. I don't know. You know, the people who I know are happiest with all this stuff are the people that have direct TV. I know, and those people may not be worried about pinching pennies like some of us are, right, yeah, amazing, but I think like that's where you go on,
Well, there's a thing that still has everything I've ever wanted. It's come full circle because what seven eight years ago when I dumped direct TV to be i don't know, like a pioneer of streaming, and you know, it was early on in the and I've tried them all. I mean, I settled on YouTube TV after trying all of them, and that was my favorite
one. But it has kind of come full circle now. Yeah, where if you kind of hung with direct TV and paid, you know, fifty sixty dollars a month more than you would by changing to streaming, now it's basically a wash. We'll think about this NBA's media right deal is about to come up. What if Fox, ESPN, Warner brother Plus whatever, they're gonna end up calling this Sports Plus and if they're like, Okay, we'll just buy the NBA boom, get the entire NBA at the NFL, the
NBA is the second fastest growing thing. I guess you would consider college football still there. I guess above it. But it's I gets a move that it's an interesting time to make an announcement when in two or three months the NBA's media rights deal is up. I don't know. I'm tired of it. It gives a lot of yeah wi me. Yeah. You know, just the other day I told you I did that thing with fort Worth and Dallas, and I said they should call it f w D, you know,
and Forward Fox, Warner Brothers, Disney FWD. This app will be called Forward and you're just gonna sit back and watch the checks roll in. Well, they're not going to roll in, because that's one of my curses. Man, with brilliant. With brilliance, you invented the idea, dude, I know, so to steal it. All we're gonna do is have this audio to prove that I did it, and I won't get one dollar, no mailbox money. Speaking of stolen jokes, you want to play pressure
luck for some money? Yeah? Can I play? Can I win Kevo cash? Yes? At eight o'clock, I want to win some keV coin. Call in in ten minutes. Okay, hold on, Danny, you had a joke about a month. There's a TV show I'll watch sometimes. I really catch up on it on weekends. It's called After Midnight. It was on a late every weeknight with the girl fun shows. Y Taylor Thomlinson's the host and she's racy. Uh, she's a little edgy. I guess he saw yeah, good fun show. It was a show on Comedy Central,
you know, thirteen years ago. They brought it back and it comes on after Colbert. I don't watch it at night. Sometimes I'll get in get in there and watch it now I get home. Mindless, fun show, well, game show, talk show, hybrid. The point is they did this thing called hashtag Wars. It's great and it was. It was about a bad had businesses or the business typos. And the guy that won. His joke was Pantera Bread. You're kidding, joke you made to me
three months ago. I've had that joke in my back pocket for years and you never found a good time to use it. No, so he stole Pantera Bread and won. We decided to be like, what menu items would they have? You know, I was gonna do a commercial. I thought of that yes, last night, Pan Tara bread. You better lock down led Zeppelin gum now yeah, man, where the network starts stealing it from here? My checks? Same deal? We need check. We don't get
checks, no ideas galore, no bread. We got to get our ideas monetized, guys. I don't know how to do that. Oh, it seems like a lot of work. Two big concerts were announced yesterday in DFW, and I'll tell you about them in a minute. Oh. The first time to play the January television news. I have three As you guys know, I scour all of the globe when it comes to TV news bloopers throughout the land, and I compile them and then I break them a month after.
So this is January. You're just not replaying a snit a clip, a clip from last week with John Oliver. No, okay, I wouldn't. I just don't believe you when you say I scour. I just scour. I don't think you're scouring anything. Yeah, you just follow some site that that that does scour them. Uh huh uh No, no, I iron this. When do you have time to scour? I never sleep well? Are these all from the globe? You scour? The whole globes. I've been doing this for years. Just go with it, all right,
here's the results of Kevin's scouring. It's a bit I've been doing for ten years and I'd have to continue on now. We will start out in the world of the BBC where they're having a pothole issue here and they've got an old man here delivering the news and he wants you to send pictures of your potholes. We're already being contacted by viewers watching the program, but we want to know how bad it is where you are, and we will come and
film some of the worst. How big is your hole? You can treat me look north at BBC, dot CO, dot K. If you can send a picture, that would be good as well. The biggest potholes. I love it. How big is your holes? Have dot co dot UK? I think so? Why do you want to dot co dot UK email? No, you should email them. We should send a pothole and email it to him. They said they can film it. Okay, get on
a big old plane and get over here. Yeah. There's some honkers on the tollway that I do through every morning and you're just sitting there going I think my tire's flat. Now, yeah, let's just get hundreds of pothole pictures. Just flood this co dot uk. What's the email adress right now? We'll like to bet our listeners here and we will come and film some of the worst. How big is your whole? You can tweet me look north at BBC dot co dot kay. If you can send the picture,
that would be good as well. The biggest potholes. No one's going to be able to know what the email address or his Twitter account is. Look North at BBC dot co dot okay, if you can look North at BBC dot co dot uk. Look North at BBC dot co dot ky. If you can send the picture, look North, it's look dot north at BBC dot co dot UK. That's too much. It is too And do we Americans do we lockdown dot com? We're not dot net right, but they have to use dot co dot UK. I think it's just kind of their
thing. Maybe I don't know. I just love that a grown man makes an accidental whole joke and just can't have any element of maturity to fight through it. He's got to stop in gig. He started laughing before I even read it. He was about to say it, how big is your hole? And then he cleans it at the end of the quick potholes hole. Now we will come and film some of the worst. How big is your hole? You can treat me look north at BBC dot co dot Okay,
if you can send the picture, that would be good as well. The biggest potholess amazing in honor of that where you're I'm not saying. I know you have a smother audio right now and if you want to hear that, we just queue up at some point today. That Iowa quarterback. I think of him every like seventy two hours. Cade Magnamara. Yes, the dude's a legend, absolutely right. Yeah, I love that guy. He's such
a moron. It's so great. This is this is so I think they kind of like don't want They're still like cut down on our general banter. Sometimes in TV news they get four of them around a desk and they just start killing time because they got to get to their heart out and they don't have a lot of content plan. They didn't have any kinough pre packaged stuff. So here there on TV talking about the bathroom stall, which we've been told not to talk about like, don't talk about office things that much.
We get some data on that that's doesn't score well with the masses. It's fine, you know, I'm open. But you know it's funny when the bathroom stall says temporarily out of order, and Danny makes a joke that says, let's make it permanently out of order. Well, these TV people just kind of hanging around the news desk here before we throw it to Kelly and her husband. When there's the two stalls, Yes, there's the bigger one right in the littler one, in the little one? Right? Which one
do you use? Thanks for asking? I haven't really you see, I go with the little one, makes you feel, makes you feel bigger. No method, Yes, I have a method because I feel more people like Sam will use the bigger one, so less people are using the smaller ones. It doesn't want it to feel neglected. I say, help, help, where'd you scour that one? I think that's Iowa. I think that's where Kate McNamara is from. Yeah, I had this theory at the AC.
I was just there. Always use the big one? Why because they have the I guess handicap handles the rails, rails, and you can set your drink down on the rail, because bringing a drink into public bathroom is always an odd thing. But if you use the other one, the smaller one, there are no rails. There's literally nowhere other than the toilet to set your drink down, and that ain't happening. Always use the handicap just because of the rails. In k you lose control of your legs and you
need to keep them falling down. Yeah, I have one more. Okay, here's Kate Magnum. If you're on there for forty minutes in a MAVs game with my phone, here's the Iowa quarterback track. Everyone just being on the same page because we know these guys are gonna come a lot. I mean, there's but no, but they have like a seventy eight. They're in a high seventies percent pressure. So I'd appreciate if noning you guys posted a video of that. But yeah, I mean, I mean, we
have to be on key with our hots. We got to be on key with our protection. So who's unexpected that? But damn. Then he says hot and protection, pressure, pressure, nothing everywhere, just sort of keeps it simmering keeps it takes on an entirely new meaning. I love him Cowboy first round pick McNamar. This is up North. They're doing a little fluff piece and I only pulled this because it's just a funny noise he makes the field reporters at a ski place, right, he's going to a ski school
and he's gonna like, Hey, I'm gonna go down the hill. But he's terrified. You don't say he's never skied before. This is the noise he makes. And Brighton Mars Anderson news Ted, let me get this on. You know that feeling when you're skiing and you're kind of out of control but you're not very good at it. To finish the piece, Here's who I am. And then Mars Anderson news Ted, it's very Steve get the song incredible. So there's your January news bloopers. Thank you could job every
