0:00This is an I heart podcast guaranteed human. You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox sports radio. Well, we did it. We made it to a Tuesday. It's hour one. The gangs here ready to go ready to be filling out our brackets. You can be involved in the DP show celebrity bracket challenge. Sign up at Dan Patrick.com or on our social media platforms.

If you're watching, you can watch on NBC sports network or also peacock download the app. If you haven't done so, we get ready for the first four. We'll talk about that Carlos Booser is two sons are at Duke.

1:01He will join us coming up. And of course, he gets to retell the, well, the story when he rented his house to Prince and then came back to his house after Prince had rented it and realized Prince, Prince it up, painted it purple. And we'll talk to Carlos, you know, every year, once a year, it feels like that story resurfaces. And this might be the time that it resurfaces and it goes viral and everybody eats that story up. The Carlos Booser renting out his house in LA to Prince. And then when Prince moved out, he came back and he went, wait a minute. It's purple. The entire, the entire building inside purple. Reggie Miller will join us a little later on. John Spolts, he'll be on the call tonight. It'll be Venezuela facing USA. The World Baseball Classic Final 877 3DP show email address dpadampatric.com Twitter handle at D P show. You got the first four.

2:02But when you're filling out your bracket, it used to be the 12.5. It felt like every year, there was a 12 over a five. Now it's the 11 seeds, you know, the 16 seeds are long shots. But the 11 seed, it feels like they inflict some damage just about every tournament. Six different 11 seeds have crashed the final four. LSU, George Mason, loyal to Chicago, VCU, UCLA. And then most recently, NC state. So it's not a coincidence. It's actually a trend and they're not your typical underdogs. Normally, these are battle tested teams playing in big conferences. They get overlooked for one reason or another, but they have enough talent to string together three or four wins. That's the beauty of the tournament. It only takes one game to maybe spark a run. And if you're looking for the madness to begin history tells us the 11 seeds are pretty good place to start. And so looking back on the six number 11 seeds to reach the final four,

3:05as I mentioned. And if you look back, since 2014, the 11 seeds have been successful going 23 and 21 against the number six seeds. This is the status of the day. There's always much you bought. Panini America, 877 3DP shell operator, title sitting by who take your phone calls here. It is St. Patrick's day and sporting the green. I think everybody's got a different shade of green on today. Although seating's got maroon on today. I had a green hoodie on and then I was brushing my teeth and a dribbled toothpaste all over it and didn't notice really till I had gotten close to the car. And I was already kind of late. So I was just like, well, better grab what's convenient. I do have an Ireland soccer jersey on the back of my chair, though. I think that counts. Paul, you got blue on.

4:06I completely forgot this morning and just came to work. Todd not only has green on a green shirt. He's got green wristbands. I do have green wristbands. It doesn't match perfectly with the lighter green shirt. But it's more of a forest green wristbands because I went to a sporting good store a couple of months ago. And I like the feel of like tight wristbands. Well, on the occasion that I go to the gym, I like how it, you know, like a bowler keeps his wrist tight. I like the feeling of the tightness of the wrist of the wristband. Not that I'm sweating or anything. It's not really used as a sweatband, just the comfort of it. Okay. And you bought different colors? I bought light blue, navy blue, black, gray, red. I have about six or seven different pairs of these wristbands of different colors to match my tank tops and or my sweatpants when I go to the gym with like, like most 56 year olds do, wearing tank tops and wristbands. So you're color coordinated when you go into kind of a lady's. Okay. I appreciate that. So no, I see what you did your sweatpants match your wristbands. How cute. How is it going with the ladies, by the way? Okay. Okay. All right. I say hi. They don't really say hi back here. Run away. Marvin's got his Notre Dame sweatshirt on.

5:07That's right. Representing the old country. Yeah. Of course. Nobody represents the old country quite like you do. UMBC versus Howard and Texas versus NC State coming up tonight with your first four and Dayton, Ohio, a couple of their headlines yesterday. At the end of the show, the chiefs picked up Justin Fields, which is kind of an interesting move because it signals to me that maybe Patrick is not going to be ready to go at least to start the season or maybe you ease him in after a couple of games, but you bring in Justin Fields. And this might be the last call for Justin Fields to be a quarterback in the NFL. But I, of course, I'm in the minority. I still think there's hope for Justin Fields. The Alabama Crimson Tide, they lost Aiden Holloway to a drug arrest. I guess he was caught with over a pound of pot, which would probably mean that he was going to distribute, sell and distribute.

6:09He is averaging just under 17 points of game. Alabama not expected to have him in their game. They open up with Hofstra. And I think, you know, if you look, this is kind of surprising here, but these teams that are the top four seeds, I don't think anybody is less than a double digit favorite in their first games. I don't know if that's ever happened before, but you got, you know, mostly chalk here and filling out your brackets, FYI. All right. Seaton, pull question today. Here's one from Paul. Would you rather call a 16 over a one or win the entire bracket? Oh, win the entire bracket. Man, calling a 16 over a one is pretty great, though. Okay, but I guess, you know, the part of the problem with the tournament is that nobody's going to believe you anyway. They're going to be like, wow, yeah, but you were just doing that to be whatever or they'll be, well, how many brackets did you fill out? Yeah, this is a one bracket opportunity to be in our celebrity bracket challenge.

7:14One bracket, that's it. But you call it, okay, gives you bragging rights, but to win the tournament, I would probably, because that means you called a lot of other games. You didn't get 16 over a one, but you got a whole lot more correct than everybody else. Yeah, as a matter of fact, you called more than everyone. Yeah, yeah, I've never won a bracket tournament. I always do terrible. I've never won a one. I, I, it's, I overthink it because you know, the game too well, I do, I do. I know it too well, but it feels like the analysis that you hear, it sounds like it's the same, but there are analysts who are saying what is actually true when they say, well, you know, if they got great senior guard play, you know, they got to cut down on their turn over like all these things that could be true for that particular team, but it feels like you could be an analyst by just throwing out these generic lines. You know, they, they got the, they got the ripper checkter and the senior guard play and

8:15look, they knocked down their free throws and their coaches been here before, you know, it's all of those check, check, check, check, check. Yes, Todd, it does the true experts and bracketologists at disservice when there's somebody people out there just saying, you got to watch the Wolfpack and transition. They're going to make things difficult for Texas. So for the first time ever, every top four seed is a double digit favorite. You know, around is 64 now Alabama has the smallest spread. That's 11 and a half and that's against Hofstra. I don't know if this is updated with Aiden Holloway not playing and here's their second leading score. And there's a lot of talent, a lot of talent and, you know, J bill has talked about this might be the most talented freshman class that we've ever had in the history of college basketball, AJ Debanza with BYU, Cam Bouser, Darren Peterson at Kansas, Caleb Wilson, who's a really talented player at North Carolina, but he won't play against VCU. Darius A. Cuff at Arkansas, Kingston Fleming at Houston, Mike Brown,

9:17Michael Brown at Louisville, Braden Burries at Arizona, Labyrinth Phylon, junior, the third at Alabama. So there's a, there's a lot of, a lot of talent here. First round and a lot of repicks, especially with AJ Debanza. And that, I don't think BYU is a, you know, a really good team. They're an old team. I do know that. I think they got a couple of 26 year olds. But I think if you take Debanza out of the lineup there, they're the oldest team in the tournament, probably by far. And, you know, you get players who go on their Mormon mission for two years and come back and then, you know, they're married with a couple of kids and, you know, 26 years of age. But Debanza is going to be a one in done. But we'll talk to Carlos Bouser about his two sons at Duke and John Smoltz will join us, Reggie will join us as well. What other poll questions are we thinking about, Satan, for the first hour of the program?

10:18The NCAA tournament starts tonight or Thursday. Classic. Well, we don't fill out our bracket. You can still turn your bracket in after tonight. Yes. So that, I mean, that really tells you everything. Yes. No offense. Wednesday, well, I think Thursday at noon is the deadline for the celebrity bracket challenge. So I would say when you turn in your bracket is when the tournament starts. Yes, Todd, do you like to pick the first four games for the chance, chance among chances that you would have a perfect or semi perfect bracket? Don't you want to be able to be on record that you picked all the games? No, you don't care about those games. No, I'll watch. You won't even take a second to circle four picks for the first one. No, no, I'm not going to overthink it. I got to worry about the actual bracket. I just don't like the play in game. I just don't like the designation of that. The opening round. Oh, that sounds so much better. It's the opening round. It's a play in game.

11:18It's a play in game. Yes. Yes. Here's one from T O double D, which are you more excited to watch tonight. The first four NCAA tournament games controversial world baseball classic championship game or actually neither. Oh, I'm going to go WBC means team USA versus Venezuela. Probably some bad blood there, just saying, but it's been fun. I've enjoyed it. I mean, Italy Italy had it last night. No, all of a sudden bang, bang, bang. And Mama Mia. Mama Mia, we had it. I don't know if that's health. I think they did. I think there was more than one person that's a Mama Mia, actual sound. You have a 24 players are from the United States. I know, maybe he's going to Mama Mia, you know, we had Mike Piazza on from Italy. I know. And you know, he said Mama Mia about 15 times in that interview. Go back and listen to it. He'd be like, oh, yeah. So I bought this team and then we lost. I'm like, Mama Mia, we're not winning. Yeah, but that's when Madonna was living in England and all of a sudden ended up with an English accent.

12:20This conflict must end. Wait a minute. That's Madonna. What? What? Yes, Paul. Do you think there'd be a ton of Italy baseball fans waiting for the three Italian baseball players when they come back to the airport? Probably not. All things signed. Probably not. There's three of them probably not. But Venezuela against Team USA, John Smoltz will join us. Mama Mia. Didn't Piazza. Didn't he have an Italian soccer team and like the team, the town turned on him. And yeah, yeah, yeah, did he have to leave Italy? He might have. I don't know. But he had from what I remember, he kind of ran that team right into the ground. Yeah, that was bad. Not ideal. Yeah. Yes, that would be Mama Mia. Mama Mia. Mama Mia. All right. Any other poll questions for the first hour of the program? Yeah, yeah, let's see. We got a few more here from Todd. Is anybody more interested in the opening round or the first four than the WB?

13:20Oh, I think I'm going to be watching. Well, I'm going to take a peek at both, but I think I'll watch more of the college basketball than the baseball. But you got to pick one and I'm going to pick the first four games. OK, even I know it's all on the line with the championship game. But I don't know. I think I'm going to be more interested in the basketball. OK, but you have to pick like you can't do the, that wasn't a choice. You could peek at both and then everyone would say, well, I'll peek at both. And you're in your anti-American, I guess. And maybe that's I'm hoping the baseball game will be a blowout and TV. I say, I'll be up nine, two early. And then I want to worry about missing anything exciting. And then I can just watch comfortably the college basketball. Oh, by the way, we got food today. What? Yes. Yeah, I saw is it Irish themes? Yeah, hey, all right. Yeah, nothing like Irish food. Hey, you know what? It's getting better. OK, I love Irish food. Yeah. Is shepherds pie Irish or is it English or Scottish? Cottage pie versus shepherds pie. That's a big.

14:21Yeah, Paulie. Do shepherds pie is pretty good. Yeah, I have mixed origins here. Hold please. Oh, my gosh. OK, hold on here. You know what? Let me take a break. There's another thing the English stole from us. When we come back, I'll tell you what the menu is today. I saw Dylan out there and I go, are you prepping for Friday? And he goes, oh, today. And I go, I mean, it's actually today. He said, let's write it Saint Patrick's day. Happy Saint Patrick's day. Every, you know, the number of people say, hey, you got something planned for Tuesday. I go, no, what do you mean? I go, I don't celebrate Saint Patty's day. My town had the Saint Patrick's day prayed two weeks ago. Yeah. What the hell? This hometown here in Millford, Connecticut, they had it on Saturday. As I found out, the hard way is I kind of stuck behind a parade. I go, I love this track.

15:21That's all the, yeah, I go, what are, where are they going? Oh, Saint Patty's day. Yeah, but, you know, happy Saint Patrick's day. Yes, but isn't a parade more fun in the weekend, even if you're cheating it by a couple of days. People have school work. They've got other things to do unless you're going to blow off the day. You know, you want to, you know, on a sally or Sunday be able to go to the parade. If that's your thing, you like parades. Did you go to the parade? I did not go to the parade. I think I'm doing more than enough with my full green outfit here. And your wristband. And my wristband. Yeah, like I don't drink green beer. I don't do any of that stuff. Like I'm like, okay, you go get them. Yes, time. What about the shamrock shake? You don't know. I don't do diesel. I don't do that. Yes, you know, it's crazy too. Is that everywhere has a Saint Patrick's day parade, which is awesome. I love that. It's only like 10% of Americans have Irish like ancestry. That's it. Yeah, there's really, it's really not a huge portion of the population. We're a vocal minority. But yeah, it's really, it's really not a huge percentage of my play.

16:22All of those Irish who came over, you know, back in the early 1900s. Yeah, yeah. Well, they didn't treat us very well when we got here. They didn't. But there's a, I think there's something like 30 million people claim Irish heritage. Nah, maybe I'm wrong. I might have also made completely made that up. You might have to stay in your lane. Yeah, hey. Or is this your lane? I feel like it's more of my lane than anything. Yes. But I then again, I'm usually wrong about my lanes as well. So it's okay. All right, we come back. We get the phone calls here. What's on the menu? Saint Patty's Day. Stay in your lane, Satan. We're back after this in the Dan Patrick show.

Why hasn't a woman formally participated in a Formula One race weekend in over a decade? Think about how many skills they have to develop at such a young age. What can we learn from all of the new F1 romance novels suddenly popping up every year? He still smelled of podium champagne and expensive friction.

23:35Who has it better than we do? Nobody. I'm not going to do that. You're not going to do the accent? No. Okay. I wouldn't play you like that. Oh, I will allow it. You can't make that joke. Yeah. No, I'm going to let you do it if you want to. No, I'm all right. All right. Somebody's not having fun. Well, I'm having I'm fun Havr. Oh, you're I'm a fun Havr. I'm a fun Havr. I'm a fun Havr. All right. Might be a new t-shirt fun Havr. This guy has fun. I'm fun Havr. I mentioned Shepard's Pie. I didn't know if it was Irish, Scottish or English. Shepard's Pie. We did a deep dive here. It's a dish from the British Isle Stan. Both Irish and English ties. Yeah, I got more. Mash potato with minced meat. Here's the curveball. Lamb and mutton used in Shepard's Pie in Ireland. Beef in Cottage Pie in England.

24:37So Shepard's Pie, you may hear, uttered more in Ireland. Cottage Pie more in the UK. England, I should say. But there's a pot pie as well. Yes. Is that the American version of a Shepard's Pie? Check it. Pot pie is pretty good. It is pretty good. Yeah, pretty good. Pie is not a bad delivery system for food. The pie. Yeah. It's not bad. Yeah.

Hey, and so Mateo in Albuquerque in New Mexico, better known as Albuquerque. The 505 or the 505. I just want to give props to Marvin

25:37because I was on hold to talk about House of Pain when he did what he did. I was like, yep, he knows his music. But yeah, they grew up in LA. And so I did find out, though, I'll go ahead and do this quick comment when I did a 23 in me with my wife. I found out I was 1% Irish. So I can actually say I'm Irish. Yeah. Congratulations. Welcome to town. Yeah, welcome. See, most people probably wouldn't admit that they're 1% Irish. Unless it's just this day. But other than that, like, you know, my wife's side of the family, there's obviously heavily Italian. But when it comes to that, they, they don't say mom of me. They do not. They say scungel and kind of model, man. Mutalia. Yeah. Mutzada. Oh, it drives me crazy. Oh, we're at a subway. Just say mozzarella. The sandwich shop.

26:38What are you doing? What are you doing? My mother lost good for the use. You know, use need to. I'm a big use guy actually, too. Use guys going to this thing. Yeah. Yeah, I remember when I was saying mozzarella. And then I could see my wife's two brothers looking at her. Like, what is he doesn't even now say moots and then I go. And then I finally, then I tried doing that. And then they looked at me like, no, you're not allowed to do it. So moots. I, uh, move on. And then I go on the Parmigiana. It's Parmigiana. pursuit. Can I have maybe some of that vial Parmigiani? David in Ohio. Good morning, David. What's on your mind today? A Dan happy St. Patrick's Day. Got a few St. Patrick's Day names for you real quick. I got Patrick Peterson. Got Andrew Luck. Ryan Fitzpatrick. AJ Green. And the last one. My favorite.

27:39Adrian. But Jason. Thank you. All right. Thank you, David. By the way, you asked for it. And we will give it to you at the top of the hour. Fritzie's one dining moment that he took a spin on one shining moment, made it one dining moment as we get ready to unofficially start the NCAA tournament. That'll be at the top of the hour. And I will say this in case you're wondering, when you hear this, that was one take. Todd thought he nailed it. He did it. One take and the backroom guys who recorded it. They were like, do you want to do it again? Like they thought he needed to do it again. And he's like, no, no, I think I nailed it. Ask me several times. Absolutely sure. That's what you want to go with. This was perfect. Let's roll it. They came out and asked Paulie. And they said, hey, he probably needs to do it again. But he thinks he nailed it. And then Paulie goes, that's okay. Good to go. Yep. Yes, Mark. One take, Fritzie. Yes, because we were in there recording one dining moment.

28:41And afterwards, all of us, all the BRGs, oh man, Fritzie, you want to do that one more time? No, no, no, I'm good. You sure? I mean, it was legit. We walked out of the studio. And I forget, it was maybe Mario that asked Paulie. Like, I think he needs to do it again. And, uh, well, Jeff, Jeff, just a little taste of it. Just a, just a sample of one dining moment. Just to let people know in a half hour, they get the entire song. The food is sure. The heck is that? That's a teaser. You know, they were very polite back there. They said, we have one more for safekeeping. I think we realized it was because it was bad. One more for safety because the first one gets awesome. I'm just saying, in that clip, the food gets all the attention, but the gold is really, it's just so good. The little vibrato. Oh, yeah, it's so good. All right, that'll be at the top of the hour.

29:43One dining moment. And, American Idol still has that call that we played that a few times. Darryl in Chicago. Hi, Darryl. What's on your mind today? Hey, Dan. How you doing? Good, sir. Happy St. Dan Patrick's Day, right? First time, long time. Have you been part of my life for 20 years? I work from home. I feel like I'm sitting in the same room with you guys, right? So, and you make me laugh every day. I just wanted to share a common opinion on Justin Fields, right? I live here in Chicago. I've watched this kid grow up under a microscope, right? He was here for three years under behind three atrocious offensive lines. Two poor coordinators who should have been coaching high school, right? He goes to Pittsburgh. He goes four and two. They sit him for Russell Wilson, which was ridiculous, right? And then he ends up with the jet. What a dumpster fire that, that organization is. I've watched this kid play. He's got legs. He's got an arm. He's got skills.

30:43I remember Michael Beck, right? I see glimpses, glimpses, of Michael Fick and Justin Fields. And I'm telling you what, he's going to be a superstar someday. He goes to the chase. He gets to sit behind, sit next to Patrick Mahomes under Andy Reed. Who resurrected Michael Vicks' career, right? When he came out of prison, it was Andy Reed. I'm telling you what, this kid is going to be a superstar, Dan. And just like you, I'm going to be able to say, I told you so. Right, thank you, Darryl. I think Darryl sounded like he was on the treadmill. Breathe and have you there. And fire it up about Justin Fields. Now, look, I like Justin Fields. You know, I bring this up when it comes to young quarterbacks. You have to have continuity. You got to have an offensive line. You have to have an offensive coordinator. You're not changing coaches every year. And Justin Fields, you know, was subjected to that. And I thought he played okay with Pittsburgh. He had some moments with the jets. But didn't feel like ownership was going to put up with him much longer.

31:47You know, I'm looking at Mel Kuiper's mock draft. He's got the jets, I think, with the 16th pick. Taking Thai Simpson, the Alabama quarterback. That feels like if you're Aaron Glenn and you're trying to hold onto your job, it's like, you don't want to get rid of me. I just drafted our future quarterback here. Like, give you a little insurance there. I like Thai Simpson. I don't think he's a top 16 pick. But in this year's draft, see, that's where I have to look at this and go, don't try to solve it this year. Get the right guy for your team. And this feels like it's a reach. And if, you know, you're going to bring him in, I'm not going to play him. You just brought in Geno Smith. And if that's the case, is Aaron Glenn even going to be there? Like, is there going to be continuity? This is where you get that quarterback who's, well, he'll be good with his next team.

32:47Everybody talks about next year's draft. So why would you try, unless you go, he's better than any of the quarterbacks in next year's draft. Because chances are you're probably going to have a pretty high draft pick. And I don't need to take a quarterback now. I have Geno Smith. I'm okay with that. We're not winning anything anytime soon. Uh, let's see Andrew in Washington. Welcome back, Andrew. Oh, good morning, Dan. It's happy St Patrick's Day. Thanks for having me on. I'm sorry, but that I have a, uh, Saturday and then a comment and a couple of questions. But, uh, Saturday is Duke is the first ACC team to ever win the men's basketball championship, the ACC football championship, and the women's basketball championship in the same academic year. So that's a Saturday day. Dan, I didn't know if you, uh, kind of dropped it and watched a little bit of it. But, Jim Ersay's memorabilia collection went on auction this past week. It brought in over $93 million set, 23 world records.

33:49One of it was David Gilmore's pink Floyd famous straddle, straddlecaster, I think it's called guitar for 14.55 million dollars. I was wondering if you took a look at that auction and then maybe a question for the room. What piece of memorabilia, if there was one, would each of you like to have? Um, I, I didn't look at the auction. I did see that that, uh, that David Gilmore's famous guitar went for over 14 million dollars. See that, that's the kind of piece that Jim Ersay would have bought. So I don't know who else is. I know Paul Allen, the, uh, late owner, uh, you know, billionaire. Uh, he collected a lot of guitars. I believe I think he was into music as well, but yeah, 14.5 million. What was the, uh, so David Gilmore on pink Floyd, Seaton, uh, with that guitar? Yeah, I'm not, I'm not sure which guitar it is that he had, uh, but David Gilmore played, uh, straddlecasters for sure.

34:50But it was a black straddlecaster. Yeah. And I think it was played on pink Floyd. Yeah, Paulie. He sold a lot of other stuff too with the Ersay sale. Jack Kerawak, the writer, the original transcript of the book on the road, sold for 12 million dollars. And the transcript was sheets of paper, uh, taped together, hundreds of sheets of paper. And the guy wrote for days in a row on a typewriter and just kept feeding it. And so it's, it's very famous in literary history. Hmm, that's incredible. I wonder in, in Jack Kerawak, you know, just like JD Salinger. Like if you said to JD Salinger, he was still alive. Uh, if you could go back and not write that, you know, catch her in the right. If you could go back and not write that, what'd he do that? Because it felt like it made him so famous and it drove him crazy and he became such a recluse that he never enjoyed being JD Salinger with catch her in the right. And I remember people would stake out the post office in New Hampshire,

35:56just to get a glimpse of JD Salinger. Yeah, Paulie. Uh, a couple more things in the Ursa collection. Uh, supposedly the last guitar Kurt Cobain ever used on stage, a 69 fender. Um, so that's just alone's notebook for Rocky 1. The notes he kept in the year leading up to making the movie Rocky 1 sold for $508,000. What's amazing is they wanted to take his script, but they didn't want him to start in it. And he said, no, you take the script. You got me and I mean, maybe a billionaire, ye, ye. Man, this is exactly the kind of stuff though. Like if I won the lottery or whatever, this is how I would spend it all. What's the one thing in there in that collection? You go, yep, money, money doesn't matter. Correct. Okay. Well, anything Kurt Cobain related, I'm buying 100%. Well, they sold that like, didn't he have a cardigan, like a cardigan sweater that had holes

36:59all over it that he was on MTV, I think. I'd buy all those things. Uh, on the road manuscript, I didn't know that was on it. That's a very important book for me as a kid. You know, as a teenager, I would buy something like that for sure. Yeah, Paulie. Last year, Cobain's guitar from MBTV's unplugged one for $6 million in a separate sale. Yeah. Would you rather have that? Or the, you know, David Gilmore from Pink Floyd. Like if it was the, the, um, if it was the guitar that say he played the comfortably num solo with or something like that, like it would have to be a very specific thing. Like he recorded comfortably num with this, then hell yeah, I would buy that absolutely. Over Kurt Cobain. Uh, no, not over Kurt Cobain, but that's personal. Like that's because he Kurt Cobain, Kurt Cobain meant so much to me that I would just buy if it was a, you know, juicy fruit wrap or I'd be like seven million. Yeah, I would probably want Kurt Cobain because more people know Kurt Cobain

37:59than David Gilmore. Even though David Gilmore, one of the great rock and roll guitar players of all time. First of all, it's not even his band. So yeah, well, that's, that's true. Uh, yeah, he probably did all of those Pink Floyd songs on dark side of the moon. I'm guessing. The comfortably num probably the coolest guitar solo of all time for me. You know, that's, I, I listen to that a hundred thousand times and it gets better every time. So good. Yeah, I'm pulling. An acoustic guitar used by Johnny Cash in concerts. How much? $215,000 as the estimate. Would Jim or say have been my best friend in the whole world? I kind of feels like, yeah, I wish I didn't know him. Yeah, we had a lot of things in here. Jim really got to five. I got to tell you. Yes. How about we take a break here? Happy St. Patrick's Day. Play the days next. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation.

Think about how many skills they have to develop at such a young age. What can we learn from all of the new F1 romance novels suddenly popping up every year? He still smelled of podium champagne and expensive friction. And how did a 2023 event called WAGA Get in change the paddock forever? That day is just seared into my memory. I'm culture writer and F1 expert Lily Herman, and these are just a few of the questions I'm tackling on no grip. A Formula One culture podcast that dives into the under-explored pockets of the sport. In each episode, a different guest and I will go deeper into the wacky mishaps, scandals, and sagas, both on the track and far away from it, that have made F1 a delightful, decadent dumpster fire for more than 75 years.

44:07Fritz in North Carolina. Hi Fritz. Hey guys, 5-111-177. Just want to see you guys were talking guitar options from the RC collection, that if you saw the Jerry Garcia Tiger guitar, it went for a weapon-ployed slide mill, and then within 24 hours, Derek Trucks brought it out on stage at the beak and then shredded almond-brother-states-brewed blitters on it. Just wanted to comment on the juxtaposition there of these people that see these high-ticket items as collectors pieces, and then some people just see them as the tools they were meant to be. All right. Well, thank you, Fritz. Yeah, Derek Trucks, he can play. He was one of those like 10-years-old prodigy. Yes, Seaton. Yeah, that dude was kind of a badass. Yeah, he still is. Oh, I meant Fritz that just called him. He was kind of amazing. He was just the tools they were meant to be. Oh, okay. You're right. It's just a guitar. Who's the yellow one? Billy Strings? He's a big deal. Yeah, pulling. Back to the RC collection, a Prince custom yellow cloud guitar.

45:12Dang, a used-in concert went for $635,000. Bargain. Yeah. Yeah. I would want one of the guitars that was the cymbal when Prince went by the cymbal. That was always weird. And how do you address it? Hey, cymbal? Like, how do I know how you get it? How do you call him? Yes, Mr. Cymbal here. I mean, you don't have to call him anything because he is. Well, if you get his attention, let's say he's walking down the street and there's a car it's going to hit him. I just yell at cymbal, getting him to turn around. Watch out. Any other items in there? Steve Jobs, acceptance letter to Apple when he went back to work, signed by him when they brought him back. There's some really random stuff on this list. Yeah, we don't have anything in here that it's going to be historical, I don't think.

46:13We got a lot of this stuff is just stuff I collected. But I don't I don't know if there's anything like it means something to me, but I don't know if it's going to mean that much to other people. I mean, I have certain jerseys that are. What's the Ricky Williams jersey? What's it say over there? It's autographed. Does it say smoke weed every day? Smoke weed every day. So I have my Ricky Williams Miami Dolphin, that orange color or whatever that color is. It says our Williams on the back. Yeah, 34. Yeah, very good. But I don't know what that is. Is that orange? Would you say that color? I would say that's orange. I saw that. And he does. Let's see. Corey in Kansas City. Hi, Corey. What's on your mind? Hey, good morning, Mr. Patrick. Top of the morning, I said shit. I should say to you in the cellist. Wait a minute.

47:14Did you slip in a word there? No, I did not. Actually, as I did, it was completely unintentional. That's my fault. Okay. I was trying to say top of the morning, Mr. Patrick, to you in the cellos. Marv, see you. Thanks for every guy. In today, nothing about positivity. Much love to the port side as well as the BRGs. Sorry, Dan. I've been drinking a little bit. That's my 40th birthday today. So I'm already getting it in. Which is actually the reason why I called. Pull question for you. What's the best holiday to be born on? Besides April 20th, I think it's St. Patrick's Day. Okay. Well, thank you. Happy birthday, Corey. Happy birthday. Happy birthday. Happy birthday. He's already drinking right now. The best holiday to be born on. You could have new years. You could have New Year's Eve. You could have Fourth of July. You don't want to be born on Christmas. Or anywhere near Christmas.

48:15420? Yes, he. I used to have an old girlfriend. And her birthday was on Fourth of July. And it was so annoying. Because every time Fourth of July came around today, the whole country celebrated my birthday. And when you get to that point where you're like, man, I think we're going to break up pretty soon. That's the kind of thing that would drive you crazy. Yeah, whole country celebrate my birthday. Is that how she sounded? That's how she sounds now in my head. Just stop. Clearly over it. Any other holidays that you would like to or not like to be born on? Yeah, I'm pulling. If you're born on Thanksgiving, you're not getting your due. That day is all about family and travel. You can't have a party that day. Well, it's all about giving thanks, though. But you get stopped by Thanksgiving. Yeah, nobody wants to take time out to have you open up gifts or anything. Everybody argues about turkey your sides, everything. You're like, okay, just how about birthday cake? Yes, honey. I don't think I'd want to be born on Halloween.

49:15It seems kind of spooky to be born on Halloween. And then if you want to give out candy and stuff, then you feel bad if you go out for dinner, and then there's no one to give out the candy in your house. Or if you do stay home, then you've got to enter the doorbell every five minutes when you're just trying to enjoy your birthday. Thank you, Tom. The Halloween stuff, good.
