Hey, everybody, it's me, Kathleen Madigan. Welcome to Madigan's Pubcast. You grab

yourself a drink, pull up a bar stool, and let's talk about what's been going on.

So many things. First of all, it's raining outside right now. This is a Sunday, and I am back from where I've been, and there's a T-take concert downtown in Nashville here, and I'm very worried about the children.

Well, don't be jealous tonight because there's going to be lightning, and then what? Then what some of these people drove from Wisconsin? Queen Tate, well, we'll get to all that, but she has actually, she's always going to have to be back here because she's too tall. I wonder if she's felt like that her whole life.

Stevie, you can come, Dolly, you shorty, the shawty, shawty's in the front in the front. She has rerouted Nashville traffic patterns. The five o'clock news. I would say, yeah, I'm a little more on that. At least 15 minutes out of that was devoted to Tate. Yeah, it's caused. She has wreaked havoc in the greatest way possible, because the news anchors are just kind of like, well, I don't know, y'all, but things kind of crazy.

Damn, town, y'all, Oopers, there are a lot more fancy than normal. Yes, we know, but I feel so bad, because down the news, there are interview people, they come from everywhere, Wisconsin, Kentucky, blah, blah, blah, blah, and I don't think you can, I was here in Nashville when they, the Garth Brooks thing went down and lightning, and my friends were down there, and they were in a tornado deal, and he wouldn't cancel it. And then if you leave, did you, you know, mess up your own ticket?

I don't know. We're going to talk a little bit more about Tate, though, because she, okay, I tried not to get political on the show, but I really, really do not like Marshall Blackburn.

And, really? Well, we'll get to that. Yeah, she, yeah. Anyway, where was it called? Well, what are we drinking? Drinking Duval beer? Duval County is in Jacksonville, Florida, basically, and I met a young comic.

Who's doing very well? Her, her name is Jay Paw. If you want to go online, find Jay Paw. She's a, yeah, she's young, and, start out, she brought me some Duval beer, and then she brought me crown royal, okay?

And jokingly, I said, you're the only Jaguars fan I've ever met in my life, because I just don't know any, and her whole, all of her social media, she's, she's a very big Jaguars fan.

And I personally cannot stand Trevor Lawrence, because I can't stand his hair. The rest of the Jaguars are fine.

I just don't want my quarterbacks spending that much time getting highlights. Okay? How about you study the playbook? But it's just, I don't like it, and he just flicks it around and like, grow up, get a haircut. Now I totally sound like my grandpa. Get a haircut.

But she found this crown royal that came into Jacksonville thing, but somebody in the store swapped it out, and it was Kansas City.

No, that was meant to be as a chiefs person. Speaking of which, by the way, I still have the devil sweatshirt on for Kate Madigan, assistant general manager of the New Jersey Devils, and they have beaten the Carolina Hurricanes. Well, it's almost it's 72. It's ongoing, I think.

No, it's eight to four. Wow, why didn't I bet the over? Jesus, that's not a hockey score. The Cardinals haven't scored that many runs all year. That's why Fred Bird is hiding in shame. I can't even talk about.

I am so angry as a Cardinal fan. Somebody's got to do something immediately. It's ridiculous. And then it's not just somebody said, I'll get more organized in a few minutes.

But as a Cardinal fan, it's not just about that we're starting out shitty. It's this has been going on for 10 years. And I went to one of the World Series games in 2011 when we played the Boston Red Sox.

It was 49 degrees outside. Way too cold to drink beer. My hands are frozen. So that's a buzzkill. And we didn't get one hit. We lost two nothing. It was just depressing and shitty. Like, okay, if you lose six to five, it was exciting for a while.

Two nothing. We didn't get it. I mean, there's something very wrong. They just don't spend the money anymore. We need August Bush, the old man to come back from the dead.

It's probably not happening. Yeah, I mean, he was just a wonderful human being. Wonderful little German.

So many things. This lady came up to the merch table and left this hat for me. I don't know her name in Charleston. And it says Masters 2023. These aren't cheap. They're totally awesome.

And she said she had lost her brother and her husband in the same year. But she found the podcast. And she just wanted to thank me. It's a wonderful. Thank you. I love this hat. Yeah.
