00:00.
00:30Here we go on a Wednesday.
00:46We're all in studio today, which means obviously we're having technical problems because we never come to the studio.
00:52And so we got to figure out exactly how to make the studio equipment work.
00:56Crowder can't get his headphones working.
01:00And I think we might be live on YouTube.
01:02I'm not sure.
01:04Are we live on YouTube yet, Jimmy?
01:08Should be.
01:09All right.
01:09I'm told we're live on YouTube from Jimmy.
01:11So if you want to watch us live, this is just a test performance.
01:14You know, we post our video clips at the end of a show, but we're going to do the entire show live on YouTube.
01:19I don't know where on YouTube, but you can find us.
01:24I'm sure.
01:24I think it's 104.3 WQAM.
01:28Solana's in here.
01:28Solana's trying to fix Crowder's headphones.
01:32So you can imagine how that's going.
01:36You can just imagine.
01:39Now, I have seen two engineers here, Solana.
01:41I don't know if you are, you know, the one who should be doing this.
01:45Yeah, they told me to restart it.
01:48So we'll get it all straightened out.
01:49We have a load.
01:51I'm not lying.
01:52A loaded potato.
01:54If anybody's watching this live on YouTube, you have to be enjoying what you're seeing.
01:59Crowder looks confused.
02:01I honestly don't know what Solana's trying to do.
02:04What are you trying to do?
02:05He's wiggling cords.
02:06He's wiggling cords.
02:09He's wiggling cords.
02:10He should have told me to wiggling cords.
02:12You can put Crowder's mic on.
02:14I mean, he can't hear the headphones, but we can still hear Crowder.
02:19He should have told you to wiggling cords.
02:20Funny, man.
02:21He doesn't sound right, though.
02:23Are you sure we have the right mic on for him?
02:27The light's on, huh?
02:28Yeah, I'm very aware of how the lights work.
02:30Oh, Solana's going to give lectures on how things are working right now.
02:35Solana doesn't have a single thing working.
02:37He's like, light's on, Hawk.
02:39Light's on, Hawk.
02:40Hawk.
02:42If there's one thing I know, it's engineering.
02:45Light's on, Hawk.
02:47Now he wants Crowder to move his actual position at the console.
02:52It was excellent preparedness on behalf of everyone involved with the show.
02:58I'm glad everyone can witness this live on YouTube.
03:03Hope you are.
03:04I mean, look at what Solana is doing.
03:08Lights on, Hawk.
03:09Everything's working fine.
03:10The light's on, Hawk.
03:13Oh, my goodness.
03:16How do we feel now?
03:18No, that mic's not on.
03:19Nothing working there.
03:23I mean, staggering ineptitude.
03:26Hey, hey, hey, hey.
03:29Is that you?
03:30Is that me?
03:31I don't know.
03:31It doesn't.
03:32I can barely hear you if you're talking.
03:36Hey.
03:37We're good to go.
03:39I mean, I don't hear him at all.
03:41If I talk, no.
03:42I can scream.
03:43I think I'm going through my talk.
03:44No.
03:44Yeah, you're going through my.
03:45Lights on, though.
03:46Solana.
03:48Look at that.
03:48Look at that.
03:49Lights on.
03:50Lights on.
03:52Primities.
03:53I mean, this is something, man.
03:55We got action, Jack.
03:56What an operation we're running here.
04:00People wonder why we don't come in.
04:02Who could go through this all day long?
04:05Jimmy went to the bathroom.
04:08He'll buy your rent off.
04:10The person helping us more than anybody is Vlad, who's letting us know that mics two and three are apparently crossed up.
04:16That would have been very useful information.
04:18Well, they're both on now, which means you're going to have some sort of feedback on one of them or echo on one of them.
04:24So if they're crossed, we can have him back at his normal spot after a commercial break.
04:29And anywho, the communication stellar once again.
04:36He's not on.
04:38I'm not.
04:38OK, there we go.
04:39I mean, this is going to.
04:41So that light is on when that mic is on.
04:45It looks like that's interesting.
04:46Because your answer before was lights on, Hawk.
04:50But it seems like actually.
04:52You're going to.
04:53You're going to blame.
04:54Hold on.
04:54It actually.
04:55Well, no, no, no, no.
04:56You jumped on my throat.
04:57No, no, no.
04:57You jumped on my throat.
04:59Lights on, Hawk.
04:59But the truth of the matter is you really need the opposite light on, not the light that you were designating as being the one that needed to be on.
05:07So this is on me.
05:09One mic has the light on.
05:11I don't even.
05:11I hear you guys.
05:13I don't even hear you.
05:14I can barely hear you.
05:15I can barely hear you.
05:17We should have stayed home.
05:18How is it?
05:19Why am I here?
05:20We should have whiz graded home.
05:22How is it my fault?
05:23A mic is turned on, but the mic that's not turned on is picking up the audio.
05:27Well, I didn't say I didn't say that it was your fault.
05:30You're the guy who yelled lights on, Hawk, as if, hey, there's no problems because the lights on.
05:37All I was identifying was the lights on still seems to be a problem.
05:42So maybe throttle back the lights on, Hawk.
05:46That's all I was saying.
05:48I never said it was your fault.
05:49I said maybe an engineer could come in here and fix this up instead of you rattling cords.
05:54I thought maybe you were going to be a little out of your comfort zone, which, by the way, you were, because he's got mic two light on.
06:04He's sitting at mic three.
06:05No one can hear you.
06:07You can't hear us.
06:09But lights on, Hawk.
06:11Lights on, Hawk.
06:12We're ready to go.
06:13I mean, he sounds like a thousand decibels to me, and I sound.
06:19I don't know which volume to lower.
06:23Unbelievable.
06:24But the light's on, so everybody settle down.
06:28I don't know which mic to lower.
06:29Do I lower three?
06:30Do I lower two?
06:31Do I lower one?
06:32Wow.
06:32And here's the thing.
06:34We have spent two and a half weeks ripping Mike McDaniel for not being prepared, and then when the game starts, looking like he's confused, and our game started eight minutes ago, and Solana's climbing under the table.
06:49He doesn't know what he's looking for.
06:50It's just like talking about personnel not being able to get into a huddle on time.
06:55He doesn't know what he's doing.
06:57He's like, oh, I got a light on.
07:01Lights on, Hawk.
07:03That was his in.
07:04Lights on, Hawk.
07:06I hope we have it on video.
07:08He plugged and unplugged my mic three times.
07:11Several times.
07:12And then wiggled the cord in the back.
07:14I told them there's no volume in the studio.
07:17Like, I couldn't hear anything in the monitors.
07:19He was unable to fix that, and it's just turning a volume up or down.
07:23Oh, that, yeah.
07:23He was unable to fix that.
07:24Oh, yeah.
07:25Big shot.
07:25Big engineer.
07:26Big engineer guy.
07:27Oh, yeah.
07:27Okay, well, then handle that.
07:29Fix that.
07:30No, Hawk, you're right.
07:32I don't know how to turn a knob.
07:33That's right.
07:33No, no, no.
07:34I know how volume works.
07:36I've been around volume all my life.
07:38It's low.
07:38It's high.
07:39It's a volume knob.
07:40Pretty much that's the way volume works.
07:42Hey, Hawk, light's on there, too.
07:44Just so you know.
07:45Light's on there, too.
07:46Maybe you need to get your eyes checked.
07:48Maybe there are no lights on.
07:50I can tell you where the light is dim.
07:52I'm looking in your eyes.
07:58Light's dim, Channing.
08:00The light's dim.
08:03He's Lenny on lights and dim.
08:09The rabbit, son.
08:10The rabbit.
08:11Can you hear me now?
08:12Can you guys hear me okay?
08:14Yeah, I can hear you fine.
08:15Unfortunately, I can hear you.
08:17Unfortunately, I can hear you fine.
08:21Rabbit, George.
08:22I mean, we have Lenny running the show.
08:30Lights on.
08:31Do you see the rabbits?
08:32Do you see the rabbits, Hawk?
08:34The rabbits, George.
08:35The rabbits.
08:37And then, like, he just blurts lights on.
08:41I'm just supposed to pat the back of his head, like, great job, Alex.
08:44Great job, Alex.
08:46You really nailed it.
08:47You got the lights on.
08:48The mic doesn't work, but you got the lights on.
08:51So, that light is on.
08:54That light is on.
08:55The lights on, George.
08:56The lights on.
08:59With no limit.
09:00By the way, I imagine this is what it sounds like when Mike McDaniel's calling the play.
09:07And it has to sound something like this, right?
09:10What personnel package do we have?
09:13They're all in, George.
09:15Who's all in?
09:17Devon Achan's running back and forth.
09:19Tyreek just pulled himself out of the game.
09:21Everyone's in, George.
09:23What?
09:24Who's George?
09:30Oh, my God.
09:33Man, you thought you were cranked up early today.
09:38He's funny, though, because he's the guy.
09:40I mean, literally, everything is going wrong.
09:43But he has decided, as long as he's got a light on, I make my stand.
09:49You know what I mean?
09:50Like, nothing's still working.
09:52But there is a mic light on.
09:54So, now he's going to stop everything.
09:56Lights on, Hawk.
10:00But nothing is still working.
10:02Big man.
10:02But, like, he found the thing where he thinks now he's back in control.
10:06But you're just asking ridiculous questions.
10:12Just the most ridiculous question.
10:14Hey, is the mic on?
10:17Is the mic on?
10:17Hawk, the light's on.
10:21He's doubling down.
10:23I'm asking ridiculous questions, trying to see if the show is on the radio.
10:30I mean, Hawk, you're asking ridiculous questions.
10:32No one can hear you, and I'm running around, and I'm just plugging wires in.
10:35But the light's on.
10:37So, the light's on, Hawk.
10:39So, when I don't have Jimmy's mic on, people are saying they can't hear me.
10:44So, when Jimmy's mic is on, people can hear me.
10:47When Jimmy's mic is off, people can't hear me.
10:50Like, this isn't my fault.
10:52Look, my light's on, Hawk.
10:53My light's on.
10:55It really is not his fault.
10:57I'm not saying it's his fault.
10:59He's the guy who blurted out, while everything was still wrong, the light's on, Hawk.
11:05As if that was the solution to everything.
11:08Like, we were all waiting for the light to come on.
11:11We just wanted the microphones to work and to be able to hear each other.
11:15That's it.
11:16Like, literally, that was it.
11:17I didn't want disco balls.
11:19I wasn't looking for a laser show.
11:22I wasn't looking for waiter and waitress service.
11:25I wasn't looking for anything other than, can we hear each other and can people hear us?
11:31And he decided everything was fine because he saw one light on.
11:35And so, he made a big show of it.
11:38Lights on, Hawk.
11:42Not the blame.
11:43It's the arrogance.
11:44It was the arrogance that everything had been done because a light was on.
11:50We are live on YouTube.
11:54Now, I see comments up there.
11:56I don't know if we'll see them throughout the show, but somebody says, I wonder what the
12:00first segment was supposed to be.
12:03Interestingly enough, it was going to be worse than this.
12:06Oh, man.
12:11Y'all got my stomach hurt.
12:12Holy mackerel.

12:21Stream your local NFL game live every Sunday, all season long.
12:32I just want to use that in anything that goes wrong in my life.
12:35Sex life, I can't perform.
12:37I'll just yell at Lori.
12:38Lights on, Lori.
12:41Lights on.
12:43Lights on.
12:44Like, that's the get out of jail free card.
12:48So, you thought everything's fine now.
12:51Lights on.
12:52That was the part that I was having trouble comprehending.
12:56That in college.
12:59Freeze.
12:59Lights on, officer.
13:01Lights on, officer.
13:03Oh, no.
13:04Going home.
13:04Going home.
13:05Everything's okay now.
13:08That's how they should answer at Dolphins press conferences.
13:11Omar asks Mike McDaniel, why can't you get the personnel in on time?
13:16Lights on, Omar.
13:19It's the universal, the universal blurt out for everything is fine.
13:24Whatever you think is wrong, and it's obviously wrong.
13:27The moment I yell, the moment I yell, lights on, Hawk, everything's fine.
13:31It's almost like the neural, it's like the neuralizer in Men in Black.
13:36Yeah.
13:36Everything's going wrong.
13:37When I yell, he's like a hypnotist.
13:40When I yell, lights on, Hawk, you'll forget everything.
13:43You'll forget everything that went wrong, and everything will be working again.
13:49Lights on, Hawk.
13:50Oh, what a beautiful day here in El Porto.
13:55It's not it.
13:56God.
13:57Anyway, stream your local NFL game live every Sunday all season long, starting at just $30

14:09In the meantime, he's trying to get you to move from one seat to another, and your computer,
14:14and the camera, and he's got like one foot on the wire, but again, he's taking time out
14:20to yell, lights on, Hawk.
14:22But in the meantime, it's like just, it's like, it's bedlam in here.
14:29It's bedlam, but he's got to pause everything.
14:33Lights on, Hawk.
14:35Because you're yelling at me.
14:37Like, I'm actively trying to fix the situation.
14:42Are you sure the mic is on, Solana?
14:43Are you sure?
14:44Are you sure the mic is on?
14:45The light's on, Hawk.
14:47I was never asking you, are you sure the mic is on?
14:51Because I knew the mic wasn't on.
14:53That's why I kept saying, the mic's not on.
14:56Your solution was yelling, lights on, Hawk.
15:01But it didn't fix the mic.
15:05Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay.
15:08Hesitant to ask him for headlines, because I don't know what the hell is going to happen.
15:12I don't know what the hell is going to happen before it lights on.
15:15At my funeral, please, for my eulogy, Solana, just walk up there and say, lights off.
15:29When I go, and seven-eighths of the room will not understand, Lori will be very angry.
15:35But you and Crowder and Jimmy will have a great laugh when you walk up to the mic and say, lights off, Hawk.
15:44And just slowly walk up.
15:47I think that's a great idea.
15:49Oh, my God.
15:50All right.
15:50Now we're up against it, because we have guests coming on, and we've got to do headlines.
15:55So let's do headlines with Solana, brought to you by Doral Hyundai, home of the Pricito.
15:59Our lowest price.
16:00Visit us at DoralHyundai or DoralHyundai.com.
16:04The Miami Dolphins have released their injury report before tomorrow's game, Thursday night football.
16:11You guys want to hear the players that are out for tomorrow's game?
16:15Yeah.
16:16What do you think?
16:17Darren Waller, in or out?
16:18Out.
16:19Well, we know he's out.
16:20Yeah.
16:20Well, he's out.
16:22My talk.
16:27Storm Duck.
16:29Storm Duck is out.
16:30Oh, that's bad.
16:33Ify Malafonmu, our starting safety, is out.
16:37Darren Waller, out.
16:39Benito Jones, Chop Robinson, Jalen Waddell are officially questionable for tomorrow's game.
16:45All right.
16:47I saw a couple of Bills inactives that are kind of a big deal, if you believe our offense can get anything going.
16:55I forget who it was.
16:56Matt Milano, defensively for Buffalo.
16:59I don't know if he's officially out, but I think he's out.
17:02Yeah, I think he's out.
17:03Yeah.
17:04That's a big loss for them.
17:05And I think Ed Oliver is out as well.
17:09The good news is Len will never ask us to come in again.
17:13Because he's like, he asks us to come in because the big boss lady's in town.
17:19He's like, hey, do you think you can come in and do the show?
17:22And if she walks past here, she's going to see smoke coming out of the studio.
17:27Solana's holding up light bulbs.
17:29Just a bleep, cluster bleep.
17:34Hope she didn't listen to this first segment.
17:35Joke's on you, Len.
17:37I think she's listening.
17:38I was in her office.
17:39Oh, boy.
17:40God.
17:45I mean, the lights are on.
17:47I don't know what else to tell you.
17:49The lights were on for the microphone.
17:51Yes.
17:51Everyone saw the lights on.
17:53Everyone saw it.
17:54It was just the defiance with which you said it as if that was, it was like the father
18:03who says, enough, you know, kids are fighting.
18:05And it's like, enough.
18:07And it was like, you were saying, enough.
18:09Everything is fixed.
18:10Lights on.
18:12But none of us cared if the light was on.
18:14We just wanted the microphones on, being that this is radio.
18:19I just wanted to talk, Solana.
18:22Here's the thing.
18:22Hawk's the guy where, like, the tidal wave is coming.
18:26You're standing on the beach.
18:27And he's like, uh-oh, we're all going to die.
18:28Like, oh, no, thanks, obvious.
18:30I really appreciate it.
18:32Like, I know the mics are off.
18:33I know we have an issue.
18:35I'm actively in there trying to fix it.
18:37Jimmy's pooped his pants.
18:39At least I did better than that.
18:40And you're the guy that's like, hey, Solana, nothing's working.
18:44Way to go.
18:45Here's the difference.
18:46I know what my limitations are.
18:49For you to say you were in here actively working to fix this situation, you were plugging the headphones back in and out and jiggling a wire.
18:59We have the video.
19:01Very true.
19:01We have the video.
19:02I was watching you.
19:03So you're the guy, as the tidal wave is coming, who starts digging in the beach with a spoon and says, I'll make shelter for us.
19:13I'll get the water to dive in.
19:15Yeah.
19:16Let me let me build a quick levee system here with this plastic spoon.
19:22I got it.
19:22Baskin Robbins.
19:24What you didn't realize in the video is that I was actually unplugging the transmitter, plugging the transmitter back in.
19:34Listen, I was checking our noise reduction.
19:36You should have left the transmitter unplugged.
19:38If this was the result.
19:43Y'all laughed at me for beating on the table.
19:46I think I was more efficient.
19:47You had the best solution out of anyone.
19:51Something might be a little wiggly.
19:57Thursday night football tomorrow night, ladies and gentlemen.
20:02Has the line moved?
20:03I'm trying to open up the Hard Rock Fed app right now.
20:05Well, turn the light on.
20:07Lights on, Solana.
20:09It was 12 last time I looked.
20:11It's 12.
20:11I think it's pretty much settled in at 12 and 49 and a half.
20:14I don't know what will happen around game time tomorrow.
20:17I love my bet.
20:22What I hear, on the way in, we're driving in.
20:25So now, you know, I'm listening to Tobin and Leroy.
20:27Yeah, they run the ball efficiently and all this stuff.
20:29Tobin, I appreciate your positivity.
20:32There's no damn chance in hell they beat those bills.
20:34I don't see a pathway.
20:36I'm not even saying to win.
20:39A pathway to not being embarrassed on national TV.
20:43So the MVP is coming back, and you're missing a starting safety in corner.
20:48Like, I don't – just let's be logical about this.
20:51I think they gave them a game.
20:55I really do.
20:55I'm going to stick to that.
20:56I know I'm on an island with this one, but for whatever reason, short week, bills are missing their starting linebacker.
21:04They're missing one of their defensive tackles as well.
21:08It's the third game.
21:09The Dolphins looked a lot better in the second game.
21:11I think they'll look better in the third game.
21:13You get that intermediate passing game looking how it did in the second and third quarter against New England,
21:19and you're able to just run the damn football.
21:21If it's the left side, Crowder, it's got to be the left.
21:23Avoid Keon Smith and Larry Borum or whatever other bum is going to start.
21:27Fine.
21:28I think they can move the football.
21:29I really do.
21:30And what is – because we need clarity because you like to BS people.
21:35What does in the game mean?
21:37Single-digit loss?
21:39Yeah.
21:40If they lose by single digits, I'll be impressed.
21:42One-score game in the fourth quarter.
21:43I will be impressed.
21:44I'm with you.
21:45But, yeah, then you'll come back and say, oh, they were almost there.
21:47No, not almost there.
21:49Jimmy the Donk made a great Photoshop of Solana's face on Mike McDaniel,
21:54and he's looking exasperated, and he's yelling, lights on, lights on.
22:00You want to see the best comment throughout that entire first segment?
22:05Yeah.
22:08I didn't know Solana was white.
22:13Yeah, I get that a lot.
22:17He's wearing his Coco Gauff shirt.
22:22And he turns into Antonio Banderas when he says Spanish words.
22:26What did you just say?
22:33All right, guys.
22:33Your weather right now in South Florida, a lot of rain.
22:37It's supposed to rain every single day for the next 10 days.
22:41That is true.
22:42That is true.
