You know my guest, the one and only Mike Wall, you can find him on Twitter or X at Mike Wall 68. Mike, it is, it's not even Wild Card Week. It is super Wild Card Week, another one of those amazing NFL rebrands. How the heck have you been and how's your wildcard week. It is super wildcard week. Another one of those amazing NFL rebrands.

How the heck have you been? And how's your wildcard week treating you?

I've been great, Andy. Thanks for having me on. As always, it's going to be the super wildcard

stuff. I just, you know, without, we'll get into a rant. But when do we want to talk about the

peacock thing? Because I can't get over it.

I just, I cannot get over. The NFL has done so well that they now are trying to branch out.

And I, you know, somebody did the math. I think it was Mad Dog Russo did the math. He's like,

every owner is going to get $3.2 million or something like that for this, forock game. So you're going to make all these Chiefs fans, NFL fans, subscribe to something that they would never subscribe to otherwise. Or go through the process. Some poor old guy in Missouri can't figure out even how to use his phone. You know what I mean? To make $3.5 million, which is a lot of money to you and me, but it ain't anything to those guys. That's like me buying you like super sized fries at McDonald's. So I just think like the greed is, I will never stop loving this game. We talked about it last time. The greed that they are like the process that they're going through to just grab more money more

eyeballs at the expense of the game at the expense of of of some of the fan base i just

it sucks man it really sucks it does i'm not going to watch that game i'm just telling you right

now like i as i would love to watch that game unless I'm not watching that game.

And I'll bet you my wife has peacock, so I'm probably lying. But I'm not, I'm not signing up for peacock to watch that game. It just infuriates me. Thankfully, in our household, we, I think, have every streaming service known demand, unfortunately. So it'll be on, I'm sure, but I totally get it.

And it's just one of those things.

I'm sure next year it's get it. And it's just one of those things.

I'm sure next year it's going to be Peacock and Amazon is probably what it's going to be next.

And it's so funny because I think forever, and this is again a totally different tangent.

But when everyone had cable, they're like, oh, I wish I could just pick my own channels and decide what I want to sign up for and then now everyone has their own damn streaming service and everything and it's just like I wish everything was just bundled in one spot I could just have one thing and not have to worry about it and now it's like it's all over the place now I've got cable like seven streaming services it's it's a nightmare here's the thing that drives me here's when I can't get over because I'm I'm in a typical American. If it's a nightmare. Here's the thing that drives me. Here's what I can't get over

because I'm a typical American. If it's a commercial, I'm going to watch something else,

right? I'm not going to sit there and just wait for the next thing, especially on Amazon Prime.

You have to listen to the same Fitzmagic commercial for a hundred times this season i i'm going to throw up if i see that
