Happy Tuesday overthinkers and welcome to Overthinking with Mackenzie and Scott. I am Mackenzie Edy. That is Scott Sipker. Producing our show is Cade Murphy. And today we are going to be joined by a very special guest, Nick Nurse. So stick around for that. He is going to go through all of your submitted overthinkings with us. So hopefully they were good this week. Doesn’t realize this, but he’s a rival of mine. Uh do you ever do you have any rivals that have no idea that you you know like that you know you really you probably even exist? Of of course I do. Yeah. Uh he’s I can’t believe a guy from Carol Iowa won the NBA championship. That’s crazy. And he was like an icon when I was a little kid. It’s incredible. Now he’s going to be on overthinking. Is he 15 20 years older than you? Yeah. Yeah. Yep. Something like that. So he So he was already successful doing his thing when you Nick Nurse basketball camps were things uh he was very successful at Keer which is why I he’s a rival of mine cuz I hate Keer and um uh they tuck in their shirts there. Go Carol High. But uh we’ll get into that. Yeah, we have a lot we have a lot to get into today. There’s a ton. But I I do need to talk to you guys about something. You know, I love a good documentary and I think most I think you like documentaries, Scott. I mean, you you made one. Yes. Uh Kade, I think you are an intellectual person. You dabble. I decided to watch one last night before I went to bed, which was a huge mistake. It It is called, sorry, I just knocked into my um lice water. Train wreck balloon boy. What do you guys remember? Yeah. Do you remember when this happened? No. This this dad, this inventor let his uh UFO, his his homemade UFO go and it went way way way up and he started panicking. The wife started panicking because they claimed that their six-year-old boy had climbed inside this balloon and news stations were picking it up. Like it went it went crazy because it went viral before things went viral. Yes. Because all these people thought this six-year-old boy was inside. Turns out the six-year-old boy was never inside the balloon at all. He was up in the attic of their house. Like, and they claim that they didn’t set it up, but everyone thinks that they these people just did it to become famous. So, I’m halfway through. I had to shut it off. It was like bedtime for me. But this gave me so much anxiety and I just I’ve been overthinking like why what it is about people that they have to feel like they have to make moves like this just to get attention and it’s just it’s this sounds like something Scott Siper would do. Jeez, no way. I would never I would never think you know when I was younger maybe I would have thought this was funny but you do enough pranks in your life and you come to realize what is a good prank and what’s not a good prank and this would be horrendous. Oh just telling the story if it is true these parents thought their kid was up there that would have been terrifying. If it is true that this is all a hoax they did for attention that’s also terrifying. So, no, it’s bad. No, no matter which way you cut it, slice it. But, uh, yeah, like because it got bad and then I we had to shut it off. The neighbor supposedly saw something fall from the balloon and so everyone watching this was like, “Well, now there’s a six-year-old like splat somewhere in the neighborhood and we got to go deal with that.” I know. I know. I know. Well, keep us posted or watch the documentary uh yourself if I don’t know if Mackenzie’s going to turn it back on, but is the kid in the balloon on purpose or not. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right, let’s hop into our top topics that we are overthinking today. Brought to you by Kaberski Brothers. Those datum Kaberski brothers, they got those lawns looking green and just lush. Oh yeah, my lawn is great. I’m going to actually have to mow, but it’s hard to mow. Because it’s so warm outside. It’s so humid. So humid. What What do you think that humidity is all about? Because I have answers. Why don’t you tell me what your answers are? Well, it’s corn sweat, obviously. So, two guys talked about this yesterday morning, right? This corn sweat phenomenon. Everyone’s calling it this phenomenon. The national, you know, outlets are picking up cornsweet, corn sweat, corn sweat. I’m sorry. Cornswe is not a new thing. But for some reason, the national news is all over it and they’re making it seem like it’s this brand new phenomenon that happens that corn all all of a sudden started sweating. Corn’s been sweating since corn existed. Okay? So, don’t get me I am the number one corn defender and I’m not just going to let these national outlets talk about our number one crop like this. You know, corn feeds and fuels the world. Okay? So, why don’t you guys just shut your dirty mouths when you’re talking about I know. I’m a passionate I’m a passionate woman. I understand. Um I was actually out I’m doing some video uh work for ANF. It’s the 40th anniversary of Hayden Fry starting ANF American Needs Farmers. And so this weekend I tried to wait till it was golden hour to go out and film like next to the corn field cuz it is so warm and the corn sweat I mean it is a rainforest when you’re standing right next to it. It’s nuts. Uh so it you it’s really hard to like even put into words how humid is it. Is it possible to be past 100% humidity? I know it’s not but sometimes it feels that way. It does feel like if you It does feel like you are breathing through a straw. And so what this cornsw actually is, it is known by the scientific term, let’s see how many times it’s going to take me to say this. Evapot transanspiration. I think I nailed it on the first try. And it’s the natural process by which plants move water from the roots to the plant to the surface. The water then evaporates into the atmosphere, making the local region feel more humid. So, yes, we have a lot of corn in Iowa, but it’s I mean, it’s all over. Like, I saw a map and it’s kind of it spreads across the Midwest. So, we plant a lot a lot of corn in the Midwest. There’s a lot of corn in the Midwest. Do you know its number one um purpose? What what corn goes to? Uh I would guess feeding livestock. Ethanol. I think it’s ethanol. Oh, all right. And then livestock. I should know this. Okay. So, as the number one corn defender, like I said, I want to give you a fun fact about corn. One that’ll make you smile and breathe a little easier. Okay. Did you know that one acre of corn can produce a significant amount of oxygen? Enough to supply the yearly needs of approximately 131 people. You’re talking about photosynthesis right now. Isn’t that Yeah, I am. Photosynthesis. Isn’t that crazy? One acre one acre of corn can produce enough yearly oxygen for 131 people. That’s kind of crazy. So, the uh Yeah, nature is pretty dang cool. Nature. That’s pretty cool. All right. I cannot wait to talk to you guys about this one. Man refuses to call nephew by his legal name because he finds it silly. So, a man says he won’t be calling his nephew by his legal name because he finds the name to be too silly. In a post published on, yeah, none other than Reddit, a 24-year-old man writes that his brother and wife announced that they were pregnant about 6 months ago, and he called to congratulate them when he had asked if they had thought of any names yet. The brother said Maverick as an option. And this man, the uncle, flatly said, “I’m not going to call your son Maverick. I find this name silly.” and he didn’t think that the brother understood the gravity of bestowing someone a name like that. When you name a baby, you’re also naming an adult. Can you really imagine an important businessman named Maverick? So, because he’s a man of his word, he decided he decided to call the baby Ricky instead. Now, I’m sorry, what’s Can you imagine a businessman named Ricky? Hey, Ricky. I got some numbers. Not somebody I would uh yeah want to do business with. I think of Ricky uh Ricky Roma from uh Glengary Glenn Ross. Not the type of salesman you want to be around, right? And I think of Ricky Bobby. If you ain’t first, you’re last. Hey, good driver. Good driver. Excellent. Excellent driver. Speaking Maverick was a great pilot, too. I’m going to the Iowa Corn race this weekend. Yeah. Yeah. The uh the name here I I respect putting down your boundaries and saying, “You know what? I told you before, I’m not calling your kid Maverick.” I’m gonna take the Ricky part out because I I appreciate going forward with it and say, “I’m not calling your kid Maverick.” Here’s the thing. Maverick is a great nickname. It’s a great nickname. Name your kid. Just something easy that they’re not going to have to go through school trying to deal with having a weird name. We got to bring back the power of the nicknames. Nicknames used to be so much better. Nicknames are sweet, but I’m just telling you right now, in a typical kindergarten class, there’s going to be five Mavericks, four Jacksons, three Emma’s, two, you know, so by the time that they’re adults, all of their peers are also going to have these stupid names, too. And like the Scots and the Bills and the Cades, they’re they’re going to be gone. So, my brother wants to name his son Maverick, actually. So, this is hitting a little close to home, actually. I I don’t think Maverick is a bad name. Mav, I’ve heard a lot worse than that. But Maverick does feel like it’s a good nickname. Paxton, Jackson, Waxton, I mean, all those names, you know, they all everyone has a goofy name these days. But I just when in 20 years, everyone’s going to have a goofy name. You know, that’s a good point that I had not considered on my rant about supporting bringing nicknames back and just giving kids regular names like Will. Uh, I think Will is a solid name that’ll never go away. Luke. I love the name Luke. Always have. Yeah. Just I just feel like it makes your kids’ life easier. And one of the reasons why we come up with nicknames is because back in the day, everybody had the same five names. So then you had to get creative and you had to come up with nicknames for people. And then how awesome. Like if I think back to my dad’s friends, Tank Strato, like these are Zippy like Zip. That was my dad’s nickname. They’re incredible. Just great great solid nicknames and it feels like the art of it gone away. I don’t know. I don’t think Maverick’s too bad. Could also It could always be worse. You could you could name your child like Aquaman or something. You know what I mean? Literally Trisha Pis, which I don’t I’m not I’m unfamiliar with her work, I will say, but I think she’s a Tik Tocker. So, I I I dabble in Tik Tok. And last week, she had had this baby and Tik Tok was going crazy. They’re like, she’s going to name it Titanic. She’s going to name it Ghost. She’s going to name it. And I was like, what the hell? Like, why would they assume that this woman’s going to give their baby a a kind of a crazy name? Well, she ended up naming it naming him, excuse me, Aquaman. And Aquaman joins his big sisters. Can you just take a guess? Take a guess. He’s got two big sisters. Okay. Aquaman. Uh, Captain Marvel. No. Okay. No. Um, it’s not a bad guess, though. I just have No, it isn’t. Uh, I’m going to go with Who’s Scarlett Johansson plays? Uh, Scarlet the the the Black Widow. Black Widow. No, you know you’re wrong. Malibu Barbie. Poison Ivy. Malibu Barbie. Malibu Barbie. Okay, that was way off. And uh Elvis and their two little girls. So now she’s the now Aquaman. So here is where I draw the line. I do not care if you name your baby Maverick. I do not care if you name your baby Emma. Like I know that they are cute on little kids, but eventually they’re all going to be adults and they’re all going to be named that Aquaman. He’s gonna have to write that on like he’s have to sign a check. Aqua. I mean, this just embarrassing. At what point, deep question here. Okay. At what point does giving a child a stupid name become very lowgrade child abuse? Hm. You’re making this life, you’re making this kid’s life harder for no reason other than you want to be seen as creative or out of the box. Like this is you shouldn’t do this is a selfish move. It is selfish. It’s incredibly selfish to name your kid something stupid like especially if it’s it’s objectively stupid. That that is stupid. Aquaman is a stupid name for a kid. It’s dumb. It’s ridiculous. It pisses me off. Malibu Barbie is also effing stupid. Elvis is kind of cute. I will say like Elvis. Elvie, you you I kind of like Elvis. I I wanted to add I don’t hate that. I don’t I don’t hate it either. But I mean even like Okay, when you are faced with having to name a child, it is huge. So yeah, I have Hayes, Cash, and Row. They’re different, but they’re not crazy. Like actually, they’re all very old names. A lot of people don’t know that, but Row When I had row, it was two weeks after Ro vie Wade was overturned. So people thought I was making this huge political statement by naming my baby something like that. And I’m sorry like trust me I am on the We’re not going to get into it. Spelled the same way. R O E. Yeah. Oh. And I wasn’t. And now let’s just say talk about overthinking a name. Like oh my god there. So, I had people from across the political spectrum saying things to me and I’m like, I’m sorry, but I am not a selfish enough person to make a like put that on my child. Do I have my beliefs? Of course I do. Um, and I Yeah, I I believe that all women have the right to choose. I’m just going to say it. But you feel like though you should have thought about this. No, I did think about it. Well, okay, here’s the thing. I don’t know. We got We got to keep going. I thought I I thought for sure that this baby was going to be a boy. I thought for sure. So, we named the baby on the way to the hospital and we named him Jack Robert. Then the baby comes out. That baby is a girl. And I’m like, well, I love that name. Like, that is the name that I have had in my phone notes app since 2016. So, when people from like the right side and the left side were like, “Where’d you come up with the name?” I just had to be honest. I’m like, I’ve always had I’ve had this name in my head since 2016. I love it. And I was going to name Seems like propaganda to me, Mc Be McKenzie. I don’t know. I know. And so people truly think that I am out here naming my child. And I would never do that. Just just to let everybody know. It’s just a cute name. And it’s a cute name for a kid and an adult in my opinion. All right, speaking of um controversial issues, Sydney Sweeney has great jeans. Okay, so Sydney Sweeney, she’s been in the news a lot with that soap made with her bath water with the hole in it, but you know, I don’t think that’s why she’s in the news, but okay, continue. Sydney Sweeney recently collaborated with American Eagle on their new fall clothing ad. However, the advertisement has since received much criticism for its tagline, “Sydney Sweeney has great jeans because this caught its racial undertone. People think it has racial undertones. Um, and people believe it’s tonedeaf.” So, they put this video up on their Instagram page and it shows her like walking up to a billboard and it says, “Sydney Sweeney has great jeans with a G and then she crosses it out and says jeans.” And we we all know what she looks like. is a all beautiful blonde, blue-eyed. People are stretching on this one. They want to get pissed off about this. This is a stretch. This is a good pun. Like, this is good. It is. And I truly think it’s funny that they It is funny. And I think that they could use a person of any color, culture, whatever to do the same ad, but it’s Sydney Sweeney. Do you know what I’m saying? Like, anyone could have great jeans. Exact jeans, but Sydney Sweeney has great jeans for sure. People want to tie this off. They are calling her is it a Nazi now? Yes, because she’s she’s not necessarily the Nazi, but um American Eagle are the Nazis. Um okay, so there’s been some comments. This is what happens when you have no people of color in a room, a fan wrote. They criticized the clothing maker for getting caught up with clever word play and missing what was blatantly obvious to people of color. I’d expect this from Abberrombi, but not y’all. They said, “Good insult.” Good insult. I’ll give him that. I mean, this is perfect. You in today’s age, when you put out some marketing like this, you need to be pissing off a certain amount of people. You know, maybe it’s 10% or 20% of people. They’re pissing off. I’d say probably 50%. And and that that I mean, talk about getting so much attention. This is This is This is a I know. But is it the attention that they want? No, it is not. Yeah. I I don’t think that they care. No. And I think they’re hooking up with Sydney Sweeny’s brand. They’re getting so much attention right now. They’re people are going to be wearing more of these jeans because of this ad. I don’t think people will be wearing more of those jeans, but I do think that they are going to be getting more like I think American Eagle for sure is going to be getting a lot more attention because I’m sorry, no one has the body of Sydney Sweeney to go buy the specific jeans that she has on to look like Sydney Sweeney. Yes, but people this is why they hire her. I’m there are people who want to be like Sydney Sweeney and so they’re going to go get these jeans. I would be I’d rather focus on the bra than if you want to look like Sydney Sweeney. like the jeans. I’m not looking at I’m really not looking at Sydney Sweeney below the waist. I’ll just be completely honest. And I don’t think most people are. I don’t think most people are. That’s not what Sydney brings to the table. Uh Kade Murphy, I’m sorry. We have to get him in. He is our Sydney Sweeney expert. You got to We got to get your thought. You are You are You are What do you think about this? I’m not I truthfully I don’t care. You know what? I agree. I I agree with you. Who gives a man? Is that a Jean commercial? I I think I I know, but I think they had a responsibility to like read what they were saying. I I’m sure that they did somebody it this is but it’s we are now a little bit like cancel culture has shifted a little bit. I feel like we’re a little bit post it. We’re It’s still connected in but companies like if this was 5 years ago, they would have already shut down the campaign. But now being antagonistic in this way and getting a little bit of negative feedback, especially from the left is it’s kind of cache now, right at this moment. I hear what you’re saying. I hear what you’re saying. I just I think it is kind of crazy that they It’s kind of ballsy that they went for it cuz Yeah, they’re they’re definitely the first company to like kind of step over the line or or push back a little bit. So I am curious to see I mean their stock rose by millions of dollars, right? So, I mean, did it I thought it went down. It did. No, it it shot up from what I heard. That’s what that’s what old Murf said over the weekend. He said it got it. The stock went bananas. It’s all green. So, it’s all green. Intention matters. Intention matters. I don’t know. I don’t think that they were I’m guessing they weren’t thinking about eugenics when they came up with this idea. Uh I think they were probably thinking, “Oh, this is this is a old pun. This is a pun that many people have used for decades now. Someone in the room had to have been thinking like come on. Someone in that room had to have been thinking and then I would say unless it is like a group of young PE but even if you’re young you should still I don’t know who’s in the room but if they would have brought that up I think it would have made it more likely that you push forward with this idea because of the controversy we’re talking about controversy swings the algorithm so hard right now this is marketing you unfortunately you’re going to have to piss some people off this is a lot of times if you guys haven’t watched the studio It’s a really good show over on Apple TV. I think this sounds like a conversation that they would have had in the back room of this studio like trying to um come up with their next movie because it’s really really really funny. It’s on the nose. But um yeah. All right. Best decision ever. Woman moves into retirement home at the ripe age of 38. So a 38-year-old This is like the dream. I think that a lot of people at least consider doing something like this at 38. a 38-year-old Australian woman who has been living in a retirement home for a year claims moving there uh as a way to start over was the best decision she’s ever made. So, after long ter after um her long-term romantic relationship with her partner came to an end, this woman who preferred to remain anonymous decided it was time for a fresh start and moved out of their shared apartment in Melbourne and spent two months living in an Airbnb. And then she went to visit her aunt and she was like, I kind of like this place. And her aunt was like, well, let’s see if there’s any open open apartments. And there was and she’s been there for a year and it’s been the best thing that’s ever happened to her. She’s claiming. What do you think? You know, we talked a little bit about this on Friday on the Murph Andy show about what is a senior citizen? This seems a little young to me. Yeah, that’s the same episode when when AD called me 40. Oh, right. Yeah, by the way, for the record, I’m not even 38. And also, the the episode where AD said you did a lot of other things. I don’t I don’t know. That was disgusting. Yeah. If you uh haven’t listened to last week’s 80s squared, go back and check it out on Spotify or YouTube. Wherever you listen, by the way, I screamed. Yeah, that was a good one. So yeah, I think that’s a little young. This is a little bit like the argument where people were saying that, you know, the the the people on OMIC were taking drugs away from diabetes patients. This is a little bit like this 308year-old is taking a a room away from 78y olds, 80 year olds. I don’t know. I I don’t think you belong in a freaking retirement home at 38 years old. You do not. No, I don’t know if that’d be good for your soul. But maybe maybe this is the future. Maybe this is the future where people AI takes over, nobody has any jobs to do anymore, and people just want to be taken care of. Maybe this person’s a trendset. That’s the future you are fighting for. That’s the just everyone listening, that’s the future Scott Sipper wants for us. No, it’s not. It is not. Defend yourself then. I’m not hearing a lot of defend defending of yourself. I mean, I don’t even know what you’re supposed to defend. I don’t think you should be in a retirement home, but yeah, you should be using AI today. You’re going to have to. You have to. It’s going to happen. I don’t want it to happen, but it’s going to happen. If you want to be dumb and lazy, rely on use it as a tool, not as a substitute for thinking. Okay. My dad um and mom listened to last week’s episode and and they drove by on the four-wheeler earlier this week, and my dad goes, “I heard you call Scott a sick son of a again. you got to quit doing that. And I’m like, well, no, you don’t. I don’t think you got to quit like a sick son of a I’ll quit. Totally fair thing to say, actually. Sick son of a It feels good. It just feels good. It kind of feels accurate as well. God. Vampire coach forced students to donate blood hundreds of times for school credit. A Taiwanese women’s football coach has come under fire. So, I’m assuming they mean soccer. I don’t know. uh for allegedly forcing students to donate blood hundreds of times in order to receive school credits mandatory for graduation. Zhu Taiing, a prominent woman’s football trainer, has been dubbed the vampire coach by Taiwanese media because during her time at the National Taiwan normal, doesn’t sound very normal to me university. She allegedly forced students to give blood numerous times on consecutive days, donations that she claimed were linked to 32 school credits necessary for graduation. terrified of not being able to finish school unless they did the coach’s bidding. Some students had their blood collected hundreds of times in a matter of days with some claiming that harvesters could no longer find viable fame. I don’t even know why. I don’t know why that seems like that seems like a bad coach. We have a good coach coming up and I can’t wait to talk to him. But have you ever had just like a a bad wacky zany coach? Oh, I mean when you’re in little league and stuff, you just you think back now to to those guys. I I actually now when I think about it, I had great coaches. Only one time, Coach Strive, Carol basketball, he uh punted the ball all the way across the the court during practice cuz we weren’t playing very good defense, zone defense. And uh he yelled so hard. I mean, and he came into the locker room and like during halftime and like just chucked a marker against the marker board. We won the game though, so turned it around. Coach had a coach that slept with a student at my school. Are you frozen? Yeah. You can’t do that. He also bought He bought the wrestling team beer. Did he get arrested? No. No. No, he went for it. He really went for it. Yeah. I mean, it was crazy. And I don’t know how into it I should get, but like there were times when after algebra class, cuz he taught algebra, um I we’d walk by and the student was giving him like a shoulder rub and I just thought in my dumb little teenage mind like that ain’t right. You know, I know I know I’m from this small school, but that’s not right. This is far more destructive than any of the stories that I’ve told about my grade school times. No. No, I don’t think so. A priest is like as nasty as you can get. Oh, come on. We’re about to Nick’s about to be on here. We can’t have this Catholic hate. You can’t be doing that. Jeez. You’re right. But, you know, it’s not too late to repent is what I’m trying to say. Well, we have a few uh minutes to to get through, so we might as well get through my two random rundown questions while we’re here. How about How about that? Let’s rock and roll. My random rundown is brought to you by Iowa Corn. Your voice matters. As an Iowa Corn Growers Association member, you help shape policies that impact your farm from the local level to Washington DC. Be part of the movement shaping the future of Iowa agriculture. Sign up now at iacorn.org/join. Thanks, Kate. And you too can be out there defending cornswe. Yeah, I thought you guys were talking about Superman at first because the guy that plays Superman now, his name is David Kornsweet. So I for the longest time I thought you guys were talking about Superman. His real name, that’s how they pronounce. I swear to God, his name is It’s Corin Sweat, but it’s corn sweat. It’s pronounced cornswe. Anyways, guys, is wearing a t-shirt of the band or artist you’re going to see a douche move? I think I’ve heard a lot of people say that it is, including my dad. I think I don’t I’m not sure if he uses it as a like a um an example like as opposed to him actually feeling that way. But I need to I need to get down to it. I need to get I need to get the real answers cuz I’m seeing Paul McCartney later and I’m I’m probably not going to wear a Paul McCartney shirt to the concert. But I am curious if it’s a douche move or not cuz I don’t think it is. Could you wear the Beatles to his shirt or would that bring up bad blood? I don’t know. I don’t think it would. If you wore the wings, that would be pretty cool. I think I think so, too. But I just need like a general answer. Doesn’t doesn’t it’s not on the scale. I would not do it. I would not I would wear a cool band that’s adjacent. Yeah. Maybe a band that the band that I’m going to respects. That’s the shirt I would wear if I was going to wear a band shirt. Okay. I know Nick’s a big music guy, so I might ask him that, too. Kenzie, what is your opinion on that? Yeah, I’m not wearing a Paul McCartney shirt to um a Paul McCartney concert. I don’t Do they even make Paul McCartney shirts? Oh, they absolutely make Paul McCartney shirts. I could get one custom made at least. So, like Yeah. What I would do is something in the same vein. So, but like if I was going if I were going to a modern country concert, you know, then I would wear like an old school country, you know, like I would wear, you know, old school country concert to a to a modern concert. Does that make sense? Kind of like a nod to what Yeah. I like the idea of a a band that’s adjacent to the band that you’re going to see. I feel like that’s a really strong move. That’s the shirt you wear. I think I think people care too much about that. We’re like a Marboro shirt. Like I smoke cigarettes. I just don’t understand. I don’t understand the problem with just wearing a shirt of the band you’re going to see. You’re going to pay to see them. I think it’s like trying too hard. It’s making it feels like it’s a thing a not a real fan would do. Like a cosmetic fan. A fan who maybe listens to the music just on the way there and they hadn’t listened to it in 5 years. Like they’re overcompensating. Yeah. It’s like buying your shirt at like It’s like buying your Cyclone shirt at Walmart just for the game. You guys are brutal. You guys are brutal. That’s what it feels like. No, I’m wearing I’m wearing a McCartney shirt to that concert. I don’t care. You guys are wrong. Um Gross. I was curious what the most overhyped tourist attraction that you guys have seen is. [Music] I’m going to have I I mean the there’s so many out there. I have not seen the Leaning Tower of Pisa. I’ve heard that one’s right up there. But for for me, I I think it’s the I80 truck stop. I People That’s a tourist attraction. It’s a tourist attraction, dude. And people they go on and on and on and they they use it as a sense of pride sometimes. Oh, man. That is that place had a Wendy’s that served breakfast in it. And I to this day that is the best breakfast I’ve ever had. It was like a panini breakfast sandwich at Wendy’s in the world’s largest truck stop. So good. Oh my god. I don’t know. Rushmore. Pretty wo. No, I’ve heard that’s not that great. Um, okay. To think about actually that they that they did that. I can’t. Why am I having trouble speaking? They they carved it out of stone, guys. Yeah, that’s actually pretty cool. No, that’s actually pretty cool. And it looks like them. No, I um I’m going to London and Italy next year, and my dad and Jenny um they found out I want to go to like the Strawberry Fields, which is based on the song Strawberry Fields Forever. And Jenny said it was like the most lame thing she’s ever seen. I was like, I want Jenny’s not going to you either. Jenny’s going to let you know. I just want to go for the sake of going. You know what I mean? It’s so I was just that that’s I was curious if you guys had any other similar places you’ve been to that were very underwhelming. But thank you guys. No problem. Well, it’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for right now. We have on the line. You seem nervous, Scott. Well, he went to Keer, you know, and so it’s just Are you raised by two people who went to Keer? My brother went to Keer. My 11 aunts and uncles went to Keer and I went to Carol High. So like I don’t know. Do you just There’s a low grade hatred here to send you to Keer. They didn’t think that I was worth the tuition. Yeah, that’s what I’m hearing. And I I feel bad. But uh here here he is. This is uh a man from Carol, Iowa who won the NBA title. That’s right, that NBA title. He is the current coach of the Philadelphia 76ers. He is the savior of Carol Country Club, now Carol National, where they’re going to be having an incredible event. We’re going to get to talk about that with Mount Joy and Jefferson Starship. Uh he is the second most famous person to come out of Carol since legend Carol High, Adams Hellesca. And uh here we are. Can’t believe Nick Nurse is on with Scott Sipker. This is McKenzie Edy and nice to meet you. Over here, our producer, Cade Murphy, the eldest son of Iowa’s quintessential sports broadcaster, Keith Murphy. Nick, thanks for joining us. Are you an overinker? Uh, not really. No. Are you? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like the fact that I just ruined my Adam Allesca joke by putting the possessive in the wrong I just stuttered all over it. I’m gonna It’s gonna ruin my day for the rest of uh but it’s fine. All right, Scott. This is why you’re successful. That’s in the past, you know. Look exactly future. Overthink to the current. I don’t know. Thank you. Thank you, Nick. Uh to see you. Nice to kind of, you know, meet you. I hear I hear you on the radio a lot. I listen to uh a lot of Iowa stuff as you as you know. And uh so it’s good to good to be on your show. Well, wonderful. Uh, have you just always been a person who can just put things in the past? Like when you make a mistake, what how do you handle it? Well, in coaching, I handle it fairly easily. Um, because, you know, there’s only I always say there’s only about two or three thousand decisions a night I’m making in a game, and I’m going to miss them. I go into the game knowing I’m going to not make every decision correctly. So, it’s just kind of move on next play. Stay stay get ready for what’s happening next. And then Yeah. But, you know, I got a little bit of that. I think after a loss, you’ll beat yourself up a little bit. I don’t know if that’s overinking or just part of sports, winning and losing, you know what I mean? So, I’ll go back and think of the hundred things I did wrong in a game and what I would have done differently. But then it’s NBA moves fast, man. I got to get ready for the next one. I didn’t realize this was going to turn into a good therapy session for me with Nick Nurse that I needed here so much. We have Kade Murphy here, the the son of Keith Murphy, and he has a few questions that he has been dying to ask you. Kade, take it away. Hi, Nick. I’m a big fan, by the way. Um, yeah, I have a few questions for you. The first one I want to ask if there was a specific player archetype that you think is underrated in today’s NBA. Um, well, I think that right now you see you see the two teams that made it to the finals. I think um I like this type of player that’s kind of rising to the top and it’s very simple. It’s a two-way player, right? Absolutely. Guys that are guys that are like picking up full court, guarding really, really, you know, hard playing good hard defense and then are also, you know, prolific scorer, shoot the three, um, that kind of stuff. So, the two-way player is really in vogue right now in the NBA, which I think is uh great to see. I think it’s a you should you should play both ends in this in this in the sport of basketball. Absolutely. Um I know you’re a big music guy. If you could recommend So, I’m a big vinyl guy. I collect a lot of records and stuff like that. So, I was curious if you could recommend one album for me to sit down and just listen to, do nothing else after this podcast, what would it be? Holy smokes. One album. Um, I got a I got a bunch of vinyl. Um, I’m going to I’m going to hit you with um the the Sign of the Times by Prince. Uh, he did he did a re-release. Check this out. So, the Sign of the Times album was was very good. uh had about 20 some tracks on it, you know, double album and then they did a reissue of it in like I don’t know 2017, 2019, something like that. Yeah. And they only put on, you know, how they usually put on a, you know, a live song or a little demo. They add a couple tracks on a reissue. They only added 68 new songs. Oh my god. On the on the reissue. So, okay, that’s like, you know, that’s like, you know, a few more than Jimmyi Hendricks’s whole career onto one album. So, that one is pretty cool. There’s a lot of really cool uh funky tunes, slow tunes, good good stuff on there. And, you know, I’m a you guys know I’m a big Prince fan. I was one of the few people in Carol listening to Prince back in the 80s. Yes. And if you’re still in Carol listening to Prince, you can come out August 7th to see Purple Wonder uh before Mount Joy. Yeah. Is is this is your love for Prince? I assume part of the reason why you you shoehorned in the these Prince songs. Well, so last year at the at the first uh U event, you know, we kind of just taken over the course um just taken over the course um in May, April, May, and we kind of threw this event together in August. We weren’t quite sure what was going to happen with it. And we had we I got one of Prince’s bands, New Power Generation, all the original members except, you know, then they bring in a a lead singer. Um so they played last year and then I kind of threw this band together that I named the icons which was um Max Kerman, the lead singer, the RELs, bunch of guys I jammed with in Canada. Um James Poser, the keyboard guy for the Roots. I had Mike Scott, who was Prince’s Justin Timberlake’s guitarist for like, you know, these guys. Threw them all together. I got some great people out of De Moine. Dave Lovers was on the harmonica. Anyway, through that group together, that’s kind of my jam group. There’s about 12 of us up there. This year we went a lot bigger. We had a great We had, you know, kind of sold everything out to the max last year, so we decided to like expand it. Um, we’re putting a stage down one. But yeah, to answer your question, Purple Wonder is a bunch of guys I jam with here in Philly. Um, it’s going to be the purple part is the Prince part and the Wonder part, Stevie Wonder. So, it’s it’s all Stevie Wonder songs and the lead singer of this group is actually on tour with Stevie Wonder right now. He’s one of his back singers and and uh he’s one of the only few people that Stevie Wonder lets sing during the during his concert. So, this guy is really something and the band is again super super talented guys. They’re they’re they’ve played with so many superstars and they’re all coming together and they’re all coming to Carol. So, they’re opening for all the other people we have coming that you mentioned. Wonderful. Yeah. August 7th, Mount Joy, Purple Wonder. August 8th, Jefferson Starship at the Jacksons. Uh, a lot of music being played both days. Kade, your next question. Yes. Wait, I I have to jump in really quick. I’m sorry, Kate. As a call back, if you’re going to a Stevie Wonder concert or if Prince was still around and you were going to a Prince concert, what t-shirt are you wearing to that concert? Uh you guys, I almost almost always wear uh a Prince t-shirt to almost every concert I go to. Okay. I My story is and people are tired of hearing this story, but but I took the I rode a Greyhound bus from Carol to Minneapolis in ’84 to see the Prince Purple Rain concert. So Wow. That’s I’m pretty hooked right from there. Yeah. Um I did not I must not I got to tell the truth here. I didn’t wear it. I went to the Backstreet Boys last week in Vegas at the Spear. Spear. Yeah. I actually wore a shirt with all the guys’ names on it that a buddy of mine gave me from Philly. So, I I wore it to the concert. Normally, I wear a print shirt to when I go to almost any other concert. Yeah. See, I think nothing’s wrong with that, Nick, but these people these people might think you’re crazy for wearing, you know, the people you’re seeing on your shirt. Nick Nurse has in his possession a Backstreet Boys t-shirt. Yeah. And it’s it’s uh it’s getting framed right now, too. It’s getting fray. I love that. I’m listen I’m uh I was fortunate enough to at somehow at the last minute the guy some guys grabbed me and took me down and got to got to meet the got to meet the boys and had Oh, nice. That’s like my dream. The shirt all by their names. And uh so that one’s that one’s going to be a keeper. Yeah, that’s frame worthy. I was uh I was curious if you if you knew any players uh that you coached, current or former, that had a very that surprised you with their music taste by chance. Um let’s see. There there was um yeah, there’s there’s a there’s a few just want to say a couple that Kelly Ubé is a pretty good guitarist and Oh, wow. Okay. on the road with him. Pascal Seakum’s got great touch on the piano. Good good player. Um, but the to answer your question, probably one of the most interesting ones and you guys um, Santold is a uh, artist out of Philly. She was really, really hot back like 2013, 2015, whatever. She’s still very, very good. And, um, I happened to go see her show in LA, I want to say two summers ago. And then in the next day, we have we have like these training practices in LA in the summertimes. And the next day I had the DJ play Santa music at the start and Tobias Harris came up to me and says, “You listen to this, man? She’s awesome. It was a pretty pretty interesting obscure kind of connection there.” Which absolutely good, by the way. She’s really good. If you haven’t heard her, check her out. I’ll have to check her out. Yeah, the name sounds familiar, but I’ I’m sure I’d recognize something that she has made. Um, so this show is all about overthinking as as I’m sure you know with the name and everything. Are there any mistakes you made early in your coaching career that you’re grateful for now? Yeah, 100%. Um I think um funny I just told this story to somebody the other day, but one time we’d won um I think six well came into the locker room after a very tough loss on the road. It was I was coaching the Iowa Energy. I think we were playing at Fort Wayne and we kind of had the game and made a bunch of really silly mistakes at the end and lost and I came in pretty upset, pretty upset off at the team and was get getting on them pretty hard and one of the players got more upset back at me and said something like, “Yo, man, we just ripped off six in a row and 11 of our last 12. you know, we’ve been we’ve been playing hard and giving it up and he didn’t come in here and get on right and I was like, you know what, he’s right. So, normally after games, I don’t say anything anymore. People think, oh my god, what are you going to tell them after the game? I usually say good job or we’re better than that and we get it up and we say go team and we evaluate it all the next day when everybody’s had a good night’s sleep and I’ve actually watched the film and all that kind of stuff. So, that’s probably a big one, that big lesson I learned way back at the Iowa Energy that that I used still today. Yeah, absolutely. Thank you so much for uh letting me ask you a few questions. I really appreciate it. Well, Nick, if if you’re okay sticking around, we now have listener submissions. They’ve been overthinking things in their life. Okay. We could use your help trying to straighten their lives out. Here’s Overthinking the Wild with Philadelphia 76ers head coach. That’s right. From Carol, Nick Nurse. Let’s go. overthinking the wild. Amazing. So Jordan Jay has been overthinking a family vacation and I think where she’s coming from is she is a parent of small children. So she’s got vacation in quotes because um we all know that it’s more of a trip than a vacation. Jenny and Keith talk a lot about this. It’s a trip. I I can’t give you any advice here, but I can empathize with you. I just I just returned from I got a eight and a six-year-old. We went to Yellowstone for a week and I’m still trying to recover from my vac vacation. They needed a vacation for my vacation. Do you do you subscribe, Nick, to the idea that um if you take your kids, it’s not a vacation. That’s a trip. And if you go without the kids, then that’s a true vacation. That that is right up there. I’m 100% on board with that line of thinking. Yes, I do too. But sometimes it is nice to go on a vacation and then take a vacation from the the extra stuff, the cooking, the cleaning, the having to just worry about your house. So yeah, but it is it’s still a trip when you have the responsibility as the parent. It’s like we should have brought a nanny along or something so I can actually have a couple margaritas by the pool cuz this just straight up isn’t fun. All right. Amy D has been overthinking why her brain decides to overthink the dumbest things at 300 a.m. Can you relate to this at all? Yeah. The the Well, the problem here is that if you’re up at 3:00 a.m., you shouldn’t be thinking at all. Oh, then it spirals out of control in the wee small hours. I got Are you a late night guy? I got some really bad advice for this. If is that okay to give? Yeah, please. No, that’s all we give here. Yeah. So it is true. I would say I’m not a late I I I get up really early and go to bed fairly early I would say too. But obviously don’t you know uh have some moments like this where you’re up. This is when um I would like to inform you that I start listening to all my Iowa podcasts and and Iowa radio shows and uh things like that. I just kind of click in one earphone and lay there and and listen. Um, and I find that gets me to stop thinking about things. Now I’m listening actively listening to something else. So it gets me off the train of thought of kind of rehashing the same things and then I fall back asleep. Well, I’m not sure can lull you right to sleep. Yeah, that’s right. That comfort. It’s the comfort, man. of of thinking about being home, being back home. That is a that’s a wonderful compliment that uh is a compliment and I can relate to it. I don’t know if it’s just being we’re all small town people here. Mackenzie still lives in rural Iowa, but yeah, that and as I get older, Nick, the pole of home. I was just back I’m from Mount Carmel, so I was just back in Mount Carmel just about two weeks ago seeing mom and my brother was there and it just every time I go back it becomes more and more magnetic to me. Why? Why? That’s what happened, Scott. That’s why I moved back. It was so magnetic that now here I am and I’m staring at a a field. So, just watch out. It’s definitely a thing. But why why is it a thing? I don’t know. And I guess there’s just so many uh I guess I guess that you would probably or I would say there’s just so many positives to think about, you know, like I always say like, you know, I do do a lot of stuff for Carol. Well, why? Well, because I loved it there, man. I love, you know, I I love the people, the community, the the sports nuts that they are, the just the environment that that we grew up in was like was like amazing. I can’t say it better. Who What’s uh Let’s see. We got Amy D here. Oh, no. Ashley. We have Ashley. Ashley has been overthinking why back to school shopping is so expensive. I don’t know if that’s really something to overthink or if it’s just a if it’s just a fact. Yeah. McKenzie, what do you think as a mom here? What are you going to What do you do with this? Well, I don’t It doesn’t I mean, yeah, it hurts to see that that your bank account take that hit at back to school shopping, but you know, at least you’re just going to take that hit and then they’re going to be set for the rest of the year. Well, not really. I have two boys and a little girl, and those boys, the shoes, I’m going to buy the shoes here in the next month, and I’m going to buy a new pair of shoes in 3 months. And it’s just we’re like on a three-month rotation with those shoes. But no, it’s it’s not that bad. You know, it’s uh I don’t know. I mean, it’s We do have the tax holiday coming up, so save up. It’s this weekend. This weekend already. Oh, it’s almost back to school. Get out there, get all your school supplies, and maybe grab an extra pack of crayons for your teacher, too, cuz they’re always struggling as well. Yeah, they are. Okay, this one’s funny. We really need your input on this one. Derek D has been overthinking something. His son is dead set on being an NBA player, but he is unathletic to say the least. How does Derek handle this? Well, I got one of these, too. I got a I got one that’s uh dead set on playing in the NFL, and he’s barely played football. My 8-year-old, the Eagles uh success here in Philly last year really really um got him going. So, I I don’t but I don’t really see him as a a football player at this stage. Um, but I’ll keep throwing him in flag football and keep throwing him in tackle if he makes it that far and see how he does and then we’ll see where it leads from there. I’m a I’m a big multiple sports person. My kids are going to play like six sports until high school at least and see which one they might like the best and if they’re any good they get to keep going. If they’re not, maybe they you do like me and become a coach. never never good enough to be an NBA player myself. I’m quite excited to coach. My dad kind of had the same philosophy. He always wanted us doing uh extracurricular things. Is there any specific reason behind the having them do so many sports? Is it just so they can maybe find something they they love and are good at or just to keep them busy and and socialize? Is there any specific method behind that? You’re right on all those. Socialization, doing stuff with their with their friends from school is is certainly key. really notice that when we’re they’re in the sports where they he’s with his friends, they have a lot more fun than if he’s veering off. Like Absolutely. One of mine plays ice hockey here and none of his school friends really played here. He he did it cuz we were in Toronto. He played as a little guy. He doesn’t have nearly as much fun as he as he did in Toronto playing cuz all his friends were playing up there. That’s one thing. too. I just like the overall um um you know how how it develops so many different and I guess muscles you know muscles thinking uh different sports you know let them move in a lot of different ways and I think that’s very valuable for down the line um and then always got to sprinkle in a bunch of the lifelong sports like make sure we got them golfing and playing tennis and and things like that that they can do for a long time. You know that they’re going to do when they’re older. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. All right. Jared R has been overthinking the height I should set my outdoor basketball hoop for my 13-year-old. When I was 13 in Mount Caramel, Nick, we were definitely bringing this sucker down cuz we were slamming it hard and I was the oldest one. So, I mean, I could just destroy the 12y olds and the 10-year-olds. You give me an eight-year-old when I was 13, they got no shot. Posterized. I love it. Um I like lowering the hoop. I don’t think that uh kids 13’s getting up there though. You’re getting close to where you’re going to have to play at the 10ft level. But for my guys, 6 8 10 I’d keep it down 8 feet so they can not, you know, have some success, man. They want to they want to be able to get the ball up there and have the strength to do it. And and uh the confidence of watching their own shot go in will will make them grow as players. And I’m sure it feels good when dad can just pick you up and then you can dunk it right there. That’s always a good one. Not that easy anymore. I’m still waiting for that one in the dunk competition. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right. This person has been overthinking the Iowa Wolves name. The Iowa energy was a way better name. Thoughts? I don’t know. Scott, what do you got? I I I feel like I like the Wolves name. I understand the energy cuz we we have ethanol. We have wind turbines, not turbines. No, no, we have turbines, not turbines. Sorry. Uh oops. Uh we All right, I’m going to just sit this one out. All right. Yep. I I like wolves. I do. Iowa turbines. That works, too. I mean, might as well. I mainly agree. I think the mascot was pretty awesome. I missed the I forget his name, but the the mascot for Yes, Serge. Thank you. The mascot for the energy, Serge, was awesome. I think I don’t think anything beats that, but he is just a quick littleh promo here. He is actually coming. Serge, the original Serge is coming to Carol for the golf event. Uh Oh, amazing. Perfect. So, look at that. That’s awesome. That’s all I want. You guys remember when this started? The energy was starting up as a new team and they had the the big naming competition. You I don’t know if you guys remember any Oh god, I don’t remember that. So they so they they kind of took it out there and and uh to the public and the register was being very helpful in you know writing these articles and they and then they finally listed the five finalists that everybody could vote on and um uh they were uh they were uh I think one was like river mud river you know one was kind of river dogs or something the IC the ICOBS instead of the ICOs. Anyway, I don’t really remember them. I wish I did remember them, but they put them out there and then everybody was like so upset at the five choices and then uh I think it was Mark Hansen like it was becoming like a thing. People were ups really upset with each other. Mark Hansen wrote an article and said, “Come on, we got all what you call them tur turbines. They got tur tur turbines. Why don’t they call him the Iowa energy?” and he wrote a big article and literally I think the next day they said he’s right. Let’s call ourselves the Iowa energy. That’s a million times better name than the Wolves. Anybody? Come on. Jeez. Yes. Iconic. It’s a cool name, man. I I get why they have to make all the teams connect and all that. I totally understand that. But energy is smoking the wolves. Come on now. And it was you know how great it was like when you’d be in the huddle and you’d say one two three energy. Oh wow. Yeah. I hadn’t thought about that. Yeah. One, two, three. Wolves doesn’t quite Would come out of the huddle like Yeah, man. energy. I like the colors, too. I thought the colors were nice. But yeah, it was good. Well, that Well, Nick, thank you so much. That we have had such a good time. Thank you. I think you probably changed a few people’s lives by helping them think through a few things. We at the golf and music festival in Carroll, Iowa. Yes, that Carol, Iowa, the capital of West Central Iowa. August 7th and 8th, we’re gonna have Mount Joy, Purple Wonder on Thursday, August 7th, Friday, August 8th, Jefferson Starship, and the Jacksons. Go to carolnational.golf for tickets. They tickets are are going well. You There are still some available, so get your butt to carolational.golf. Nick, what do you what do what do you have to do between now and August 7th? Do you got anything else you got to get lined up for this festival for this event? I was going to say I got a little shooting clinic starting tomorrow uh with all of our younger players here in Philly. We got three days of just working on the basics mechanics, taking them back and getting them ready to go for the rest of the summer. Um what else do I get? Ah man, there’s all kinds of stuff. mostly just organizing who’s coming and how they’re getting there and when they need to be there and all that stuff. It’s it’s going to be it’s going to be really awesome. Are you going to be hanging out with the Backstreet Boys anymore? Um I will probably one of them Yeah, one of them is a was a big NBA fan and and uh wants to wants to come to a game when we go to Atlanta. So yeah, Nick good for us. That’s all I’m saying. Like there’s these people. That was amazing. It was unbelievable. It looks Yeah, social media has really showed that off. Nick, before you go, I just genuinely want to say thank you for representing my home county as well as you have. I’ve always looked up to you. I still remember getting the Nick Nurse Camp uh flyer when we had to do paper and pen back in the day. My dad was such a fan. He went to Keer as well. Uh, as much as I hate all of you Knights, I uh I really appreciate just the genuiness that you represent our area with. And I I’ll leave with this. How how many times a day do you just sort of pinch yourself that you came from this small town and now you’re you’re the head coach of an NBA team with a ring? Um, not very often. I don’t I guess I don’t think about it too much to be honest with you. Um but you know Scott thinks about you know you know it was a it was a super long winding journey and and uh just just you know got some great breaks along the way and again I keep saying like like even like the Iowa energy is a great example without the Iowa energy there’s no way I’m sitting here as the head coach of the Philadelphia 76ers. I was I was coaching in basketball obscurity, you know, England and and uh the USL and coaching all these summer leagues and all this stuff. And then all of a sudden, boom, I’m the head coach of the Iowa energy because of, you know, Gary Kirk and Jerry Crawford and Paul Dre and Sheldon Oringer and these guys helped us start this thing. And then I’m like a half a step away from the NBA and, you know, we we we win, you know, we win and that gets some attention and we win the title and that gets some, you know, and it just kind of goes from there. And some nice nice nice breaks and some unbelievable people helping along the way. Well, I I love the work ethic that you have powered your life by. I hope there’s something in the soil where we came from that makes that true. And thank you for saving and investing in the Carol Country Carol National. Now, I I just love that place so much. So many memories. Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate it. Thanks for having me on. Very nice. All right. Well, good luck everybody. Go check out the event, the uh the the Golf and Music Festival at the Carol Country Club, August 7th and 8th. Nick, thank you so much for joining us. See you. Thank you, Nick. All right, everybody. Thank you so much for tuning in to another episode of Overthinking with McKenzie and Scott. That was amazing. He left. He left. Hold on. Don’t don’t sign off. You know, we have to we have to do a little bit of a you know, a postmortem here. I was just leading into that. So, thanks for cutting me off. Thank you so much for lining this up. Feeling really good. Really cool. Thank you, Scott. Yeah, I got too shy to ask him about VJ Edgecomb, but next time next time. Well, I has his number, so just text him. I had I can’t believe I was so excited to get to that Adam Melesca joke at the beginning, which is an esoteric joke. I know. And I I it up. You also spent like 30 minutes introducing him, ladies and gentlemen. Yes, it’s time champion. No, I know. I’m just giving you I was so nervous, too. You were you were you were you were very cutely nervous, Scott. Thank you. Cutie, this little tag at the end when you were thanking him, I got a little emotion. Seriously, that was really beautiful. I really mean it, man. It’s um I you know, I grew up that Carol Country Club. I just I I I became so much of who I am today and that and the fact that he saved that place. I would used to work first shift at Pellar Roll screen an accessory packout and then I would immediately get done at three o’clock and drive the two minutes to the Carol Country Club to work in the pro shop or play golf until dark. Like that’s, you know, and and it’s um it’s just a special place. Carol County is a very special place for him to do that. That something he didn’t have to do but did. That’s really that was really that’s a testament. It seems like to who he is, he’s such a gosh guy. Like what a laidback cool guy. Sorry again. I got to work on that. Uh yeah, you do. He’s clearly not an overthinker. Like legitimately like when you make mistakes and then he’s like, I just let it go. I’m like, you don’t want your NBA basketball coaches to be You don’t want your brain surgeons to be overthinkers. You don’t want your coaches to be overthinkers. You don’t want You really don’t want You just want your podcast hosts. You You probably don’t, but like tough you know? You probably don’t. You probably don’t. Well, on that note, but if you do, we’re happy you’re here. We love you. Well, everybody, thanks for thanks for listening. I hope all your favorite bands stay together. Wasn’t it fun to see him light up when Kate asked him that question, Kade? Awesome. The question when you asked him about recommending an album, he lit up. Great question. Thank you. My dad’s bet was purple rain and he was wrong. Oh, he’s not too far off.

Philadelphia 76ers Head Coach Nick Nurse isn’t exactly an overthinker, but he’s joining the show anyway. He talks with Mackenzie and Scott about coaching, answers listener questions, and shares what to expect from his second annual Golf and Music Festival at Carroll National Golf Club.
