Now, I want to open the show with something a little bit different because this is very, very important. All right. I really, I want to talk, Dan, and this is where I'm going to kind of put you on the spot here a little bit, because I know how upset you are by the Pope's Exorcist commercials that air repeatedly during the NBA play-in games. And I know they upset you, and I know, this is a safe space. We can talk about this. I mean, we've got a lot of playing stuff to get to, but I know this is really something that is affecting you in a big way. I don't know if I am appropriate or I'm just old.

I do not know, and that was the dilemma last night. I've got a young boy, and I just didn't know.

I think for the first time in my life, I said, I don't think this is appropriate. On TNT. Yes, I'm T&T. You're watching T&T and this is not appropriate. Oh, man, I don't know. I have to get into it. But first time, you know, there are a lot of get off my lawn moments in life. And I didn't think that was one. But I'm like, maybe it's just me. I'm trying to look inward these days and trying to not blame everybody else for all of my problems and TNT. You know, I'm like, well, maybe it's just me. But I don't know why you're running Pope Exorcist promos and scaring the life out of everyone. Well, when I first saw that movie come out, when I first saw the Pope's Exorcist, I'm like, is this a comedy? Like it seemed like one of those, it seemed like one of those movies that a movie, like a comedy movie says, hey, let's go see the Pope's Exorcist tonight. Like that's like a fake movie that you would go see. Because I'm like, it's like the Pope's exorcist?

Is it like the hit man's bodyguard or the hit man's wife's bodyguard?

No, no, it's a real serious movie that the Pope has an exorcist and somehow they got Russell Crow to do it. You could, the title could be a way in Brothers movie. Like, right? combining three different movies, you know, The Exorcist, you know, whatever.

Like that's what it could be, but I just did not. right? Like combining three different movies, you know, The Exorcist, you know, whatever.

Like, that's what it could be.

But I just did not think the promos were appropriate for all ages of the audience.

Well, you know, it's funny you say that because, you know, seeing it, I just look at it's, oh, man, this movie is just spent.

I'm just glad there's no more Snowpiercer commercials. Because like every other ad for the last two years was Snow Pierce. It's like, come on, man, you're not going to get me. Gretchen Weeners, quit trying to make Snowpiercer happen. I'm not going to watch Snow Pierce no matter how many commercials. In fact, you're making me not want to watch it by putting all those commercials on TV. I long for your favorite true TV promos during the NCAA tournaments.

Maybe put those during the NBA playoffs.

You know, I never thought about the fact that you have kids watching. And here's the Pope's Exorcist and there's blood and there's demons and there's all kinds of stuff.

Honestly, I never thought about that until I knew that happened to you last night. And, you know, you call the police to your house to try to get that commercial off the television. All I did. True story. I'm sitting there and I'm watching, you know, Lakers, Timberwolves game, which is amazing that Peppa Pig isn't on my TV, that I can actually watch a game and he's distracted enough but at times he looks

up at the screen and so then all of a sudden I see some face you know with blood eyes and

lines through him and I'm just and so I covered his eyes because I wasn't sure if he was even
