00:00Also the host of the Ross Tucker Football Podcast.
00:02You can get him on social at RossTuckerNFL, MyFrontPageStory.com.
00:07We're going to end up talking about all of this between now and the next 15 minutes.
00:11Are you a news break now or something?
00:13No, why?
00:13Because you've been on your phone the entire time.
00:15You're pulling a shit, too, is what you're doing right now.
00:17I tried to talk to you three different times this morning before this segment started,
00:22and you just, like, buried your head in your phone.
00:24Like, I was somebody you didn't want to talk to.
00:26Well, that's not true.
00:28But the things you were trying to talk to me about, I don't think I was that interested in.
00:35Wait, I heard a question.
00:37Honestly, I swear, this has never happened between you and I.
00:41You came in, and I feel like you're big-timing me.
00:45Like, oh, yeah, I documented the Dr. Chow controversy.
00:50Sorry, I'm not big enough for you.
00:51I feel like Seth is so aggressive in person.
00:56Like, I feel like there's a chance, like, he's going to attack me.
01:03How much caffeine have you had so far?
01:05If all this is that you're scared, then I can accept that.
01:07What time did you get here?
01:10What time did you wake up?
01:11I woke up at 2.30 a.m.
01:13And you've been here since?
01:15Like, 3.30 a.m.?
01:17Your show is 4 to 8.
01:18Yeah, local.
01:19Local.
01:20Yeah, here.
01:21It's 4 to 8.
01:22That's true.
01:23Ross might not realize my energy level.
01:25Yeah.
01:25No, but we've spent time, you know, in person.
01:28No, I know.
01:29But you're at, like, a 9.
01:32I need you to come down to, like, a 7.
01:33Okay.
01:34We've got to account for how early in the morning it is.
01:37It's 7.24, Ross.
01:39I feel like you're verbally attacking me.
01:42Well, do you want to hear about an attack?
01:43You walked right in and started throwing shade at Cornell.
01:46That was your opening salvo.
01:47Let me just tell you something, Ross.
01:48This has been a pattern this week.
01:50Have you seen this yet, Leo?
01:52No.
01:52He threw a Tide Pod at me at the end of the show the other day.
01:55Out of this bucket, hit me right in the eye.
01:56And Sean was such a wuss about it.
01:58No.
01:59Oh, jeez.
02:00It really hit you in the eye?
02:02Watch this.
02:03Look, he takes the Tide Pod.
02:04Watch this.
02:04I'm just sitting here just trying to finish the show.
02:07I'm just trying to finish.
02:08Boom.
02:09Right in the eye.
02:10Have you ever seen anybody be so dramatic about getting hit in the eye with a Tide Pod before?
02:15J.J. Watt commented on my pen throw.
02:17Yeah.
02:18Thought it was supreme.
02:21You can't hit somebody in the eye, dude.
02:23Dude, square in the eye.
02:24You could poke an eye out.
02:25As if he couldn't have blinked.
02:27That was, he was fine.
02:29He didn't know it was coming.
02:30I know.
02:31I didn't know it was coming that hard.
02:33You want to watch it again?
02:34Yes.
02:35Here, let's watch this.
02:36Look at this.
02:37Look at this.
02:38Watch it again.
02:39Look.
02:39It's like two girls, one cup.
02:42We're watching it right now.
02:43It was, uh, I was going to just toss it at him.
02:47Look at Figgy in the background.
02:49Like, everyone, oh.
02:50I was going to playfully hit him in the chest.
02:52And it just, it came off as soon as it left my hand.
02:54Even if you hit me in the chest, there was nothing playful about it.
02:57Yes, there was.
02:58You threw a 98-mile-an-hour fastball.
02:58You also threw it way too hard.
03:00Yes.
03:01I know, I know.
03:01I didn't expect that.
03:02I was kind of excited about that part of it.
03:04Like, look at how buggy his eyes get.
03:06I am.
03:07And he keeps leaning closer and closer.
03:10I know.
03:10It's four hours a day I do this.
03:11I got to, like, move over.
03:12I got to, like, move over and adjust the camera here.
03:14Yeah.
03:14Yeah.
03:14You're so aggressive.
03:17What is wrong with you?
03:19Dude, have you had your testosterone levels checked lately?
03:23Yes.
03:23I did, actually.
03:25I feel like you're just, I don't know.
03:27I just feel like there's a lack of trust between us.
03:31Don't worry, Ron.
03:31I've got the weaponry right here.
03:34Full supply.
03:35Are they, oh, they're sponsoring this, huh?
03:37Yeah, they are.
03:38Yeah.
03:38This interview they're sponsoring right now.
03:40You know what?
03:40I've, I'm a big Tide Pod guy.
03:42I think it's the best tasting Tide Pod.
03:44Yeah.
03:46He was warning me to think of kids not to eat detergent the other day.
03:49Yeah.
03:50That's the type of advice these kids get from us.
03:52We know the kid.
03:53We know exactly which one of those kids definitely ate a Tide Pod when he was, you can just see
03:58it.
03:58You can see it by looking at him.
04:02Now they're all wondering, isn't it?
04:03Wait, I have a question.
04:04I have a question.
04:05Yeah, yeah.
04:06Before Tide Pods, you would just pour the detergent in.
04:11You said so.
04:12Now you just drop it and it's like.
04:14Some people still pour the detergent.
04:16Yeah.
04:16Yeah.
04:16With a Tide Pod, you just throw it in the bin.
04:18Yeah.
04:18Yeah.
04:19Seth knows very well.
04:20I don't know how to work my washing machine.
04:21He doesn't have a clue.
04:22Sean doesn't know how to do anything.
04:25No.
04:26The radio.
04:27That's it.
04:28That's it.
04:29Yeah.
04:30Hey, I want to know the take thing.
04:32The take of mania.
04:32The take of mania.
04:33You know what?
04:34That's why you got off to Iran.
04:36No, I want to apologize.
04:38Yeah.
04:38Because I actually was interested in that.
04:40Yeah.
04:40In the take of mania and where things were.
04:43But again, it's like.
04:45I think it was like subconsciously.
04:47I would look down at my phone.
04:49So you would like dial it back.
04:51But you know what happened?
04:53The opposite happened.
04:54Yeah.
04:55Like I would look at my phone.
04:57Because I got like 10 text messages from my wife, my producer, whatever.
05:01So I'm looking at it.
05:02And then you would just get louder and more aggressive.
05:05Yeah.
05:06Like a car.
05:07Who the hell is your thing she is?
05:10You're talking to Seth Payne.
05:11That's right.
05:12I was the equivalent.
05:13If you were a woman, I was the guy with my hand on the wall as I was leaning in talking
05:17to you about how cool dogs are.
05:21Yeah.
05:22Did we never explain to you take a mania before?
05:24No, I think you did.
05:25Okay.
05:26But I want to know where things.
05:27Take a mania is like just the craziest take of the week.
05:30It's like the bad takes of the week.
05:32Yeah.
05:32But he said I was.
05:33I was.
05:33You were the genesis.
05:34And it wasn't really a take.
05:35It was a year ago this time.
05:36It might be a year ago to the day.
05:38Yeah.
05:38When you came on with us.
05:39It was over the phone, but at Radio Row.
05:41And you explained your tactic of the restaurants that you like.
05:46Yeah.
05:47Giving bad reviews to them so people won't go to us.
05:50So it doesn't get too crowded.
05:51Yeah.
05:52Except that you couldn't see us because it was over the phone.
05:54No, no, no.
05:55It was in person.
05:56No, no, no.
05:56It was over the phone.
05:58Yeah.
05:58We were on Radio Row, but it was over the phone.
06:00Okay.
06:01And we were horrified by that.
06:04Why?
06:06Because that's.
06:06I don't give them.
06:07No, no.
06:07I don't give them bad reviews.
06:09Yeah.
06:09But I don't tell people.
06:11Yeah.
06:12Like at the Jersey Shore.
06:14Yeah.
06:15It's not easy to get reservations.
06:16Right.
06:17I have one restaurant in particular that we love.
06:21Yeah.
06:22So when people say, what are your favorite restaurants?
06:24I don't say that one.
06:25Okay.
06:26And we thought that was.
06:27I don't, I don't, I don't know that I go so far to tell them the bad ones.
06:30It's the way you framed it was a little more hostile and aggressive about giving maybe
06:37bad feedback to people.
06:38So if it's, it happened to coincide with the time.
06:41Why is Seth on his phone?
06:42He's not paying attention to the conversation.
06:44He's.
06:44I don't know.
06:45I'm so insulted right now.
06:46He, uh, but it coincided at a time where we were workshopping.
06:49Where we were.
06:50Oh no.
06:50He's focused, dude.
06:51He's focused.
06:52It was, we, we were workshopping at the time doing a bad take segment.
06:56And so we were like, why don't we just start with Ross and this restaurant take?
06:59You quickly were taken down by Angelo Cataldi of all people.
07:02What was his?
07:03His take was the day after the Superbowl saying that Andy Reed was the biggest fraud
07:07in American all-time fraud, biggest all-time fraud in America.
07:10He held the title for a while.
07:12Eight weeks.
07:12He held the title.
07:13And we've had a lot of champions.
07:14So we have like four takes that we bring every week.
07:16Angelo does not like Andy Reed.
07:19I don't know what happened there, but he does not like him.
07:21Oh, you know what else?
07:22Another way Ross has slighted me this week was, uh, you know, last year I hit the big
07:26time.
07:26I was on his podcast.
07:27Yeah.
07:28He recorded it and played it like three months later, but, uh, that's what I do with all
07:33of them.
07:33Yeah.
07:33I was, I was walking by the draft Kings, just kind of looking at your sweet set over there.
07:38I just wanted to sit in that chair.
07:40You know, I wanted the spotlight on me.
07:41And I just kept looking at my phone.
07:43It's like, no, he hasn't texted me.
07:44No, no, no.
07:46I can get you on this year.
07:47I don't want to go on.
07:48I really don't want to go on.
07:49I'm leaving immediately after this.
07:50At 8 a.m.
07:51Today we're done.
07:52We even get up at 2.30 every day.
07:54We're done.
07:54Yeah.
07:55Yeah.
07:56Um, so football, how about that game this Sunday?
08:02What are you, uh, what are you most excited about, about this game on Sunday?
08:05Uh, calling it.
08:07Oh yeah.
08:07What are you going to be doing for Westwood?
08:08I'm not.
08:09I'm calling it for talk sport.
08:11You ever heard of it?
08:11No.
08:12Talk sport is the Westwood one of the UK.
08:15Oh, no kidding.
08:16So I'm the color analyst with Will Gavin, the big redhead guy with the beard.
08:20Yeah.
08:21Have you seen any of his clips go viral?
08:23No.
08:23Yeah.
08:23No.
08:24If you look up, like, it's like legendary calls.
08:28Oh, yeah.
08:29I do know what you're talking about.
08:29Will Gavin McCaffrey, and he's a, what does he say?
08:32He's a man of significant carriage.
08:34Yeah.
08:34Yeah.
08:35Um, like, he weighs a decent amount more than me.
08:38So that's actually, that'd be a good poll question.
08:40Will it be the heaviest two-man booth in the history of football broadcasting?
08:44How have you, what does he weigh?
08:46Oh, he's got to be over three bills.
08:47Yeah.
08:47And I'm like.
08:48What are you tipping the scales at these days?
08:50Probably 256.8.
08:51Yeah, you look good.
08:52If I had to guess.
08:52So you're, uh, it's you and this, is he English?
08:55If I had to guess.
08:56Yes.
08:56So it's, uh, it's you and this bloke, and, uh, broadcast out to the European audience.
09:02Well, just the UK.
09:04Yeah.
09:04Which, I still don't even know what the UK is.
09:06That's, what is the UK?
09:07It's the same as Great Britain, right?
09:09It's everything except Ireland.
09:10Yeah.
09:10It's, it's.
09:11It's, uh, it's those two islands.
09:12Hold on a second.
09:13It's.
09:13Minus Ireland.
09:14Okay.
09:14It's.
09:15Northern Ireland, Wales.
09:16It's Britain.
09:18Well, no, Britain is all-encompassing.
09:20So the UK, I believe.
09:22Yeah, so it's England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland, I think.
09:25But not the rest of Ireland.
09:26But not Ireland.
09:27Yeah.
09:28Ah.
09:29Got it.
09:29Okay.
09:30Yeah, so anyway, it's the whole UK.
09:31And they said last year, it's 11.30 p.m. to 3 a.m. over there.
09:35Oh, wow.
09:36Yeah.
09:36They said last year they got well over 100,000.
09:39Listen.
09:39Listeners.
09:40Listeners, yeah.
09:40And the viewers was over 4 million.
09:43Wow.
09:43And for the second year in a row, the day after the Super Bowl was the number one sick day
09:51in the UK.
09:52Well, I would guess so.
09:5411.30 kickoff.
09:55Is it sick, though, that I, like, take pride in that and love that?
09:59Like, I love that that's the case.
10:01Yeah.
10:01I love that that's the case.
10:04Oh, yeah.
10:04There's Kirk Cousins.
10:05What do you get that?
10:07Kirk.
10:09I said Kirk.
10:09Now I'm stuck on the Britton thing.
10:15So what do you do?
10:16Like, what do you do for prep with him and everything as far as?
10:19We had a production meeting on the drive to opening night.
10:22Uh-huh.
10:23And that's about it.
10:24Yeah.
10:24He's the play-by-play guy.
10:25I'm the color analyst.
10:26We're going to rock it.
10:27You know what we have, which I've never had before?
10:30Kind of like these cameras right here.
10:32Yeah.
10:32We're going to have a booth camera.
10:34Oh, yeah.
10:35And I think you can live stream it.
10:37That will be electric.
10:38Because, honestly, it might be not only the heaviest booth, it might be the most electric booth.
10:43Oh, okay.
10:44Calling your shot.
10:45In terms of bringing the energy.
10:46Not like Seth Payne, 3 a.m. in the morning energy, but, like, energy.
10:50I guess I am taking notes from Ross now.
10:52I guess I just got to be more sedated when I'm on the radio from now on.
10:57No.
10:57So tell me, Ross, what do you fancy about this game and this matchup?
11:03What do you fancy?
11:04No, no, the most interesting thing.
11:06This won't be the last time you hear about this game.
11:09What do the Yanks feel about these two teams?
11:14His voice now sounds like a therapist.
11:19Yeah.
11:20Like, it's like, all right, so tell me, Ross.
11:23Where did it all go wrong?
11:25What happened?
11:26Seriously, though.
11:27It's not your fault.
11:27Will Campbell sucks.
11:28What are they going to do about that?
11:30Yeah, they're going to help him.
11:31I think the most interesting thing is he doesn't suck.
11:34He's struggling.
11:35He sucks pretty bad sometimes.
11:36He's struggling.
11:37Yeah.
11:37You know, the most interesting thing to me is this Eamon Worry injury.
11:42Yeah.
11:42I mean, they built the whole defense, which is kind of crazy, by the way.
11:47They built the whole defense around this rookie DB, who's like a combo safety linebacker.
11:54They play the least amount of base defense of any man in the NFL.
12:01They play the most nickel.
12:03And I saw this video from two days ago.
12:06He did it, like, Wednesday's practice.
12:08He gets out of the car, and, like, he's limping bad.
12:14And so I'm sure he'll play, and I'm sure he'll tape it up.
12:17But my thing is this.
12:18Like, he's not an O lineman.
12:21He's not a D lineman.
12:23He needs to cover people.
12:25He needs to react to people.
12:27I'm sure straight ahead he's fine.
12:30But, dude, they built the whole defense around him.
12:32Yeah.
12:32I mean, that is going to be interesting.
12:35You know what, Ryan Harris?
12:36You know Ryan Harris, former offensive lineman?
12:38He was with the Texans for a while.
12:39Well, he has a theory, which is that he might be playing possum a little bit.
12:45And I only know that that's what Ryan Harris said.
12:49And I do wonder, okay, I think he definitely sprained his ankle.
12:51But the fact that he got out of the car and wasn't wearing an ankle boot or anything,
12:55maybe he was playing it up for the cameras a little bit.
12:59You got a bunch of people out there.
13:00You know the video is going to go viral.
13:02And maybe he made it look worse than it actually is.
13:05It was a cell phone camera, though, and it didn't seem like he knew it was there.
13:10Oh, yeah.
13:10Yeah.
13:11And he was getting out of a car.
13:12And by the way, he was getting out of a car.
13:14Why was he getting out of a car?
13:16Who knows?
13:17Because he didn't ride his bicycle from practice?
13:19No.
13:19It wasn't a team bus.
13:22Yeah.
13:22It was like a separate car.
13:25Conspiracy theories abound.
13:28Myfrontpagestory.com, Ross.
13:30You know what I love about you guys?
13:31Yeah.
13:31Every time I come on, if you bring it up, multiple people order because your audience is amazing.
13:37Which, by the way, that reminds me, if you're in the Houston area and you're looking to grow your business,
13:43you need to advertise with Sean and Seth.
13:47You guys have a legit audience.
13:49It's myfrontpagestory.com.
13:52It's by far the best Valentine's Day gift I've ever seen.
13:55It's the type of thoughtful gift that Seth would get his wife, but you would never get your wife.
14:00Me?
14:01You know, Sean?
14:01Yeah.
14:02Why would you say that?
14:02You're not thoughtful.
14:03Well, my wife is the biggest Ross Tucker fan ever.
14:06That would be part of the My Front Page story.
14:07Ooh, I like that.
14:08Listen, just make sure when you give it to her, you tell her, honey, I wanted something special for you.
14:13I had a story written about you.
14:14It sounds like you, like, commissioned, like, Mitch Albom to, like, write a book about her.
14:20Yeah.
14:20You know?
14:21Ah, yes, Mitch Albom, the American sports writer, yes.
14:23My Front Page.
14:24I like that voice.
14:26Myfrontpagestory.com.
14:27She will cry.
14:28You will win.
14:29Have you ever, either one of you, ever given your wife a gift that moved them to tears?
14:35I have before.
14:36What?
14:36What was it?
14:37It was a pair of boots last year that I got her.
14:40No.
14:41Yeah, she was moved to tears.
14:42They're very expensive boots.
14:43She cried about boots?
14:45She cried a little bit.
14:46Yeah, like, I think I saw some.
14:48She wanted it that badly?
14:49I think I saw some salty streaming coming from your ducks.
14:53Were they like Louis Vuitton boots or something?
14:54No, they were Myron Crosby.
14:55They were really nice.
14:57Wow.
14:57Still are, yeah.
14:58Okay.
14:58But not like this.

15:03Listen, I know 95% of you guys driving around right now, you haven't even thought about Valentine's
15:08Day.
15:09You usually just get flowers or you pick up like a gift card at the Olive Garden or something
15:14lame.
15:16MyFrontPagestory.com or boots.
15:18Who gets their wife boots for Valentine's Day?
15:21She cried because she was sad.
15:23MyFrontPagestory.com.
15:26MyFrontPagestory.com.
15:27It does sound like a more thoughtful gift than a retail item.
15:30Hey, what, in all honesty, and I know you got to go, what's the turnaround on something
15:34like this?
15:35Like, people are probably thinking, hey, it's Valentine's Day next Saturday.
15:37Yeah, yeah.
15:37So, if it's over a week, you can do that within seven days and get it in time.
15:42Okay.
15:43Although there is a school of thought that you're better off going to MyFrontPagestory.com.
15:47Making the order, putting that in an envelope, giving it to her on Valentine's Day.
15:54She opens it, and then you say, it's not quite finished yet, but the author is currently
16:01finishing up a story written about how amazing you are.
16:04Because then, think about, so first of all, she's like, what?
16:07She's blown away.
16:08And then the anticipation.
16:09Right.
16:10Every day, waiting for it to get there.
16:13Like, what did this person say about me?
16:15Who else is quoted in this thing?
16:16You know, does it mention the boots?
16:18Yeah.
