Welcome back to the show.
I asked Tori last week as the football season is winding to a close.
Senior day is coming up.
What's the plan after football?
Yeah, so I guess if I'm in America, it's probably a good thing.
You know, I want to be playing football for as long as I can.
It's probably wrong of me to say this, but I've kind of put all my eggs in the one basket for football just because I want to give that everything I can.
And you know, I've always thought people
say oh you've got to have a backup plan but you know to me that's kind of just an excuse um whereas yeah I've kind of put all my energy to go towards football and if that doesn't work out then I'll worry about what's there.
To provide a putter's perspective on Iowa football number nine Tori Taylor welcome aboard.
Like I say every wake brawn and I might be repating myself it's always an absolute pleasure.
So as we get into this a little behind the scenes you were working on some media today
And when you're called up to do media for the football team, a lot of the same type of questions or is it a lot about your performance or what you think?
What goes on with that?
Oh, probably in the past, it's always just been about performance and things like that and what I've been working on.
But today was more so just talking about seeing your day and, you know, what's it going to be like playing the last game?
Yeah, kind of just things like that.
What's my experience at all?
I've been like, who am I close with?
Yeah, you know, kind of all the
All the same stuff from from different people.
It would be nice if they just all lined up in one line all together and you could just Say it once but you know, they all kind of move around to the four or five players But no, it's fine.
They're all recently good, dude.
You know, not as great as you Brian, but thank you Yeah, they're they're solid enough guys
Would you have gotten in trouble with the sports information director?
If you would have just said well if you guys listen to the jock to jock podcast on rock108.com You would hear all the answers that I've said already to Brian
I know, I really should have, shouldn't I?
That would have made life a lot easier.
For you, yes, but I think like you might have gotten in trouble with some of the coaches.
Coach Woods probably would
not have.
I could have just said jock to jock, guys.
Listen to it.
See yous later.
All right, let's get into it.
You didn't get a punt as much against Rutgers this time, huh?
I know, it was sad.
More time out on the field holding for field goals and for point after tries.
I
know.
It was a bit, yeah, it was a bit bizarre.
It was...
Yeah kind of hit that punt in the third quarter and then you know usually the Iowa way is right I mean it's pretty obvious and I don't really think I'm saying anything too wrong when I say this but when we get a little bit of a lead we get a little bit more conservative you know so I thought I'll get a couple of punts late in the game I'll stay ready
Then I was just kind of sitting on the sidelines going this starts like I want to get back out on the game But at the same time I was enjoying that we were absolutely smashing someone and Just soaking in all the emotions of second last game in kinect So it was a bit of a weird experience bit of an anomaly, but yeah, good thing
when they're showing this sideline I did see you warm it up and With as close as the fans are at kinect that's not like anywhere else in college football that you played, right?
Yeah, I'm trying to think.
Nebraska's pretty close.
But yeah, and it's not like they're walking past abusing you or anything like that, so it's fine.
I'm trying to think.
Wisconsin was far away.
I kind of wish sometimes when we played away, they were a little bit closer.
So I'm looking forward to Nebraska going back there.
It's always good when the fans walk by and give off a few choice words.
Is there a standing rule that
U.S.
players cannot interact with the fans during the game except for kind of in a wide stance, you know like trying to get everybody hyped up
Yeah, it's one of those things and sometimes I feel bad like a kid would be like hey come on the photo I said Mate it's the middle of the second quarter like I'll see you after the game, you know what I mean and sometimes, you know like parents and stuff will get a little bit frustrating It's like well, he's just a kid.
I'm like, yeah, I know but like you should know like we're playing a game here I said like I'll come back after the game
And you know, kids always like, oh, can I have your towel?
Can I have your wristbands?
And it's like, God, it's like, I'll get you after the game.
And I always make an effort to go there after the game and, you know, give them a high five and sign something.
So I always try my hardest, but at the same time, I'm usually just ignore them in the game, which sounds horrible when I don't mean that in a cocky way, but I'm just trying to focus on the game.
And sometimes I wish as kids, you know, I get, but like, sometimes I'm like to the parents, like...
Can you just get your kid in line like this is really your fault, you know what I mean?
This should be a t-shirt.
It's really your fault Tori Taylor.
Yeah
There you go will be millionaires.
I just saw a thing where Drew Says he could beat you in one-on-one basketball
Yeah, I did see that and you know what Brian he would and it's funny and I will say this I walked into the specialist room this morning and I said
Drew, you would beat me in basketball.
I've barely ever played in my life.
But how about you just worry about making your kicks because you've missed five of them?
Wow.
Yeah.
Because I'm, I'm watching that video.
And I'm like, why is he worrying about beating me in basketball?
Yeah.
He, the seven billion people on this planet would beat me basketball.
Like I don't care.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Yeah, that's true.
Sometimes he kind of worries about things that.
I don't know.
Like, is him being good at basketball really that important?
No.
The only thing that people give a shit about is how many kicks he can make and he needs to do.
That's all he needs to do.
Let's return surf.
What sport that you played, either growing up or whatever, could you school drew on?
I would say, well, obviously Australian football, but that's not really fair.
Well, cricket, again, not fair.
Like, cricket was actually funnily enough the one sport that I was good at.
Growing up, but I just didn't enjoy it.
Like I thought You know, I got to like 15 16 all my mates were going to the beach or they were catching up with one another on a Saturday and I was Standing me outfield for six hours when it's 90 degrees.
I just thought, you know, I'm not enjoying this.
So like why am I doing it?
And it's like I got asked that in media before like do you enjoy time?
I said trust me if I didn't enjoy that I wouldn't be doing it, right?
You know what I mean?
What is it about cricket that Americans?
Don't understand.
Well, it's not an American sport.
So why would they care about it?
I think that's the easiest way to put it, which I get, you know, they've got all the sports over here.
I love football.
I love baseball.
I hate basketball.
Yeah.
And I'm hoping to say that with Jerry's coming.
I just think they get paid millions of dollars and, you know, they play one night and then they play the next night.
It's like, oh, don't worry, boys, we lost this one, but we'll get them tomorrow.
I just don't really understand the meaning behind each game.
No, I'm really cares until it's one other playoffs like October.
I don't even know when it's basketball season
Are you talking for college?
Yeah, NBA NBA is going on right now, too So they just started here about a week.
Oh, so to be like June May June is the player
you're not messing around
But I like baseball.
I must say I like baseball.
I like watching the World Series Yeah, I really like baseball.
Um, this will sound really like nerdy and weird, but I like watching guys
do their routine.
I know that sounds weird but especially when it's pitches and I went to an Angels vs Padres game when I was in San Diego in July and I just like watching things like off to the side what players do you know the same time over and over again because I'm kind of a bit of a routine guy myself um during games so I kind of like watching that stuff which I know sounds a bit weird but I love it.
Absolutely love it.
You know, they swing the bat a certain amount of times.
They do certain things with their hands and things like that before they're going to pitch.
I love it.
I love that nerdy stuff.
Do you have Netflix?
I do.
There is a documentary.
It's about all-time baseball Hall of Famer Nolan Ryan facing Nolan.
Have you watched it yet?
No, I have not actually.
Funnily enough, I didn't have Netflix for a good couple of years, but I got it again a couple of weeks ago because I'm like, well, no, it's going to be cold soon.
I'm going to be bored because there's nothing to do.
So I might as well get Netflix again.
And I'm a big soccer fan, so I wanted to watch the Beckham documentary, too.
Yeah,
yeah.
Nolan Ryan started with the Mets and became the all-time leading strikeouts leader.
He became the guy with the most no-hitters.
And even before they had speed radar, people were saying he's throwing 100, 101 or something.
It turns out it's like 108.
Oh, that's crazy.
Here's your team brawn.
My team for baseball?
Yeah, you better not say the Cubs.
It is the Cubs.
God, they're so bad.
Why does everyone follow them?
I think it's the lovable losers.
They're just so bad.
Like everyone talks about how great the Cubs are.
I'm like, they've won one World Series in a hundred years.
Like, relax.
And it made me cry.
Yeah.
There was a big deal back home in Australia.
I was like, oh, the Cubs won the World Series.
I'm like, yeah, if the Cubs, who cares?
Well, that's tough.
My favorite player growing up, because I was playing Little League Baseball, there was a right fielder by the name of Andre Dawson.
He was one of the best home run hitters that they'd got from Montreal.
And I just liked the Cubs because of Andre Dawson.
I also liked the Oakland Athletics because of Jose Canseco.
And it turns out he was on the juice at the time.
So...
Oh, well, there you go.
I was a big Paparazzi fan back in the day.
What I'm trying to do after talking with you is to expand my horizons.
And like you said, Americans don't usually pay attention to things that aren't theirs.
to understand better Australian rules football to follow a team you mentioned the Richmond Tigers that's why I'm trying to get into that so that I could have a
well if that isn't your team Brian lose my number
okay I heard that on the Heisman podcast that your family is not necessarily Richmond fans no they're not well and that's that's why I'm
I'm learning so I could have a workable conversation with some, you know, an Aussie about Australian rules football and they go, oh, okay.
You know, next week, next week, I'm going to ask you a couple of questions about the Richmond Tigers.
I want you to find out who they, who their best player is at the last 10 years and what number he wears.
Best player.
Do I have to know position too?
Yes.
Okay.
What number he wears.
Okay.
And I want you to tell me where he's from too.
Got it.
All ready to go for next week.
Let's talk about Illinois.
It's a five and five team that always seems to play Iowa tough.
They played Maryland, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Indiana all close so far this season.
This looks to be a tough contest.
Absolutely.
I mean, I've probably said it before.
You're playing in the Big Ten.
There's no easy games at all.
And people kind of sitting on the sidelines probably think, oh, you know, it's Illinois luck.
We should be there.
No.
It's a big 10 football team.
You know, they're going to play strong defense.
They're going to be sound on special teams and their offense, you know, they scored what was a 40-something points last week.
Yeah.
Like, they can move the football.
They can move the change.
So if we're not alert and things like that, then they're going to beat our ass playing in simple.
So yeah, we're going to be on our stuff, which we're working to do this week.
Any particular people on the Alina you're looking forward to saying hello to on the field?
Yeah, I mean, that pun I trained with for a year, Hugh.
So yeah, that'll be good.
Their kick is a good dude too.
So, you know, all the specialists, you know, you kind of just know of one another.
So yeah, it should be fun.
Dumbass or Drongo.
Two stories here.
I got to tell me which one's the dumbass, which one's the drongo, which would be from Australia, the dumbass from America.
We got the two stories and here we go.
64 year old Sheldon man was arrested for trespassing and painting a neighbor's plants.
Officers say that there is security footage of the man walking onto the property and applying paint to their plants outside.
This is not the first time he's messed with his neighbors.
The second story, the Wiggles say that they are deeply disappointed that a city is using their song Hot Potato to drive away homeless people.
The city plays the song at an unacceptable level to discourage people from congregating in certain areas.
Which story is the dumb ass?
Which one's the drongo?
Well, do you know what the Wiggles is?
I do.
Do you?
Because I feel like they're Australian.
Okay.
I don't know.
I'm trying to put myself back 15 years when I would watch the Wiggles and did they have Australian accents or not?
I want to say the Wiggles one is Drongo.
I feel like they did.
Final answer?
Yep.
That would be correct.
Two points.
I knew it.
Let's go.
Two points.
All right, now to get your bonuses.
Let's start with the Drongo.
What city do you think this is in?
It's the third most populous city in the state.
I mean, Brian, what state is it
in?
If I'm gonna tell you the state, you're gonna have to tell me the city then to get the point.
Yeah, that's fine.
Okay.
Is it Queensland?
No, it's Western Australia.
Western Australia.
So now you have to tell me the city to get the point.
I'm gonna say Broome.
Final answer?
Yeah.
No.
What is it?
Bunbury?
Go ahead, okay.
Yeah, Perth is number one.
Bunbury, number three.
Yeah.
On the other one, 64-year-old Sheldon Mann, this city or this town...
Is in O'Brien and Sioux counties got a guess at what state
this is in Sioux County, that's in South Dakota, isn't it?
Final answer Yeah, I threw you off on that one Sioux County is also in Iowa
I knew it was near there.
I like I knew it was like isn't there like a border between South Dakota and Iowa
Yes, you're correct
I did that to throw you off a little bit.
Well,
you're a prick,
aren't you?
I kind of figured that.
No, so what was that?
Two out of four.
Okay.
Well, not bad.
Could be worse.
Could be better.
Not bad.
After the poor start earlier in the year, we're making progress.
In the other jock to jock podcast, the basketball addiction.
Addiction.
Well, okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Don't worry.
I talk for a living sometimes.
the jock to jock podcast basketball edition, Patrick McCaffrey, we've got two episodes under our belt already, and both times, he's had the right schools, but he's flip-flopped them.
He started 0 and 4.
Oh, okay.
So, like you said, in the last episode, he's almost there, but his is a little bit more difficult because... Yeah.
He's got three options.
No, it's not.
No, it's not.
This is good.
Any final words that you want to add or maybe anything else that you had as extra from Media Day that you wanted to let the jock to jock podcast audience know?
No, not really.
Just last game in Kinnick.
I really appreciate everyone's support since I got here three years ago.
And yeah, let's just enjoy one last ride in the great stadium and one last time.
You know, sometimes you see the players go out and they hand flowers off, and since your dad's going to be there, you're going to give him flowers?
Yeah, it's going to be funny.
I've thought about that, and I'm going to do it because it'll be funny.
Is he going to
cuss you out when you give him the flowers?
Oh, maybe.
He might just be like, what are you doing?
You silly prick or something like that.
Enjoy your final game at Kinnock for senior day, and good luck for the rest of the season.
Thanks,
Brian.
I
appreciate it as always.
That'll do it for this week's football edition of the jock to jock podcast featuring Tori Taylor.
I mentioned within the show that we also have a jock to jock podcast basketball edition with Patrick McCaffrey getting an inside look on Iowa basketball.
Check that out on rock108.com or wherever you get your podcasts.
Next week I've got some homework.
I've got to figure out who the best player for the Richmond Tigers is.
We'll follow up with Tori Taylor next week and get a recap of the Illinois game.
The jock to jock podcast sponsored by I'm on communications experience the I'm on difference.
