Now here are your hosts, Brock Heward and Mike Salk.

Yes, the final show of 2025.

Good morning, Brock.

Good morning, Michael.

How we doing?

The final show of 2025, indeed.

And I think the most savvy thing that Daniel Jeremiah said right there, by the way,

is you're either a game family or you're not. It's true. And I think it's deeply disappointing to Molly that we've not evolved into that. Yeah. And bless her heart, she tried this time more than ever. I think she bought like three different games to play. One of them was a little memory cards game. We actually did that. It was not as good as I used to be. That's pretty sad. I wasn't even good once as I ever was. I'm not even close. And then some other games, I don't know, some other games you looked up on TikTok where you got to pick up candy canes with the candy cane. See, that's too much too involved. Yeah, there was a card game. It's too involved.

Like Dylan's family, you know, like they're games people. Keep it simple. Yeah. Is your family a game's family? We're not, although I will say we are going to try something tonight. We're supposed to try to play celebrity tonight with a group of people. So we'll see. Celebrity? Yeah. What is that? You like write down names on little pieces of paper and then you got to try to get the rest of your group to guess who it is without saying their name. Oh. Yeah. Oh, interesting. I've done it at other people like other people who are game families have hosted and you go and you're like, oh, that's pretty fun. So I don't know whether we'll be able to pull it off. Thankfully, you don't have to buy anything for it.

It's just literally pieces of paper with writing on it. The Goldstein family, the Dooley family that we learned, big, trivial pursuit family. Dooly family, big game family more. There's no way Lyle's family plays games. Zero. No chance. Zero. He said his parents love Jeopardy. Yeah, but there's no way Lyle plays

like any sort of game.

Yeah, there's a difference between my family and me. Ah, I see. No kidding. I think we've learned that pretty I mean, I was telling Brock in the break yesterday. My dad's almost gotten on Jeopardy multiple times. Like, he is for as terrible as I am about knowing basically anything. He knows everything. Did you tell your dad you'd never heard of Sigmund Freud? I did, and I told him that there's no way other people know this. And what did he say? Oh, he said other people. He asked you to move out, I think, after that. All right, Brock. Wait, did you play, like, Monopoly or anything with your family growing up?

We had a Mariners Monopoly version. Doesn't that shock everybody? We used to play that. That's kind of fun. Otherwise, it was shoots and ladders. Ah, that's a deep. It requires a lot of deep thinking to play shoots and ladders. All right. Brock, we've spent some time on it, but I wanted to dive a little deeper into the role of John Schneider today. When Pete, well, look, I got this from Brady, and that kind of got me thinking. And I know that our friend Brian Nemhouser Hawk blogger's going to join us at 830, and he wrote recently about Schneider and he's fired up too yeah as he often is

um and so i i you know i i i went back i went back in time this is from january 10th 2024 so

almost two weeks ago or two years ago rather almost two years ago this. This is from Pete Carroll's exit press conference.

Surreal, right?
