SPEAKERS

Speaker 1, Bill Cole, Todd Schuler, Speaker 2, Nestor Aparicio

Nestor Aparicio  00:00

Welcome home. We are W, N, S T, am 1570 Towson, Baltimore, Baltimore. Positive we are positively. I’m fighting through my lottery tickets ups and downs and ins and outs. We have Raven scratch offs to give away. We’re here pizza, John’s. I turned the camera around because my neck got all cranked up the other day. Cocos, I’m gonna great guest today, and we’re gonna begin the show, hopefully with a very, very high level of energy. The great bill Cole is here from cole roofing and Gordian energy and Todd Schuler, damn lawyer. Give me the damn good lawyer. Blonde l Miller Schuler. We are in the heart of Essex, and yet they let Dundalk guys over. We’re gonna honor the late great Craig heist because we’re near Kenwood High School and around the corner from Chesapeake and the mighty Bay Hawks. Do you guys think of Essex as done and Dundalk as the same thing? Because, like you, neither of you are from Essex and Dundalk, but you seem to like to come and visit with me when I’m in Essex and Todd for your case, you signed up to be a part of a major Essex business in Blondel Miller, right on the

Todd Schuler  01:04

app. I’m a partisan. I’m an Essex partisan. My law partner is, of course, a Dundalk partisan, as are you. But no, I’m I’m an Essex man.

Bill Cole  01:14

I mean, I find them to be two distinctly different locations, although very close and adjacent to one another, but there are differences. So yes, they’re different. For me, they’re different locations. Well,

Nestor Aparicio  01:27

when my sign was crooked, and this is just me being, you know, funny, my sign was crooked earlier, and I was trying to fix it, and Sharon was here helping me. By the way, the women that work here, I tried to get them on instead of you, and they’re to be here the orders, there’s two Sharon who I have a Sharon, I have Sue. But all the women that work here, oh, you know, they were trying to come on a show, and they couldn’t come on the show today. But I said to them,

Bill Cole  01:52

probably would have been better content. Well, couldn’t agree.

Nestor Aparicio  01:56

More was a little crooked. And I’m like, Hey, you’re an Essex. Shane Dundalk, straighten it out. Okay, how are you guys doing? Man, good. Life.

Speaker 1  02:08

Good, awesome, yeah, yeah, everything’s really fantastic. You

Nestor Aparicio  02:11

guys have known each other longer than you’ve known me, correct? Yeah, oh yeah. You guys know each other

Todd Schuler  02:17

multiple lifes together. Have

Nestor Aparicio  02:19

I had you on the show together.

Todd Schuler  02:20

Never. No, no, i

02:22

Wow. I wasn’t actually

Todd Schuler  02:24

sure. I just thought Bill was on during adult hour. I didn’t

Bill Cole  02:27

know. I didn’t know that if you put both of us together, whether this would break and just, you know, wouldn’t work.

Nestor Aparicio  02:33

And I’m trying to get your microphones with a good level. So

Bill Cole  02:36

yeah, now we go up and down. We go up and down. I’m

Todd Schuler  02:38

trying. Am I? Am I? It’s the it’s the big guy. When you say eating the

02:41

microphone, it’s always bad shit.

Nestor Aparicio  02:47

I want to dive into a lot of things with you, but first things first, I am in the middle right now as we speak, about four and a half hours into a weekend long. And I’ll give Tony Robbins a plug. It’s Tony Robbins AI summit this weekend. Wow. So, you know, I’ve done a lot of things with Robbins. The reason Baltimore positive exists, if anybody asked me, I did a fire walk with Robbins in 1994 which really begat my whole radio station and my philosophy. Then I got invited to do this date with destiny. Thing that I think you both were part of my life at that point, about seven, eight years ago, that created Baltimore positive. The AI thing came to me through Mike Rosenfeld and you, Bill Cole about a year and a half ago, because Rosenfeld brought it to you, you started tinkering with it before anybody I knew you and I did a segment maybe a year ago about it. It is now a ubiquitous part of everyone’s phone in some way that you’re getting offered. Even on meta, anytime you put a Facebook status up, it’s saying you want to know more about Todd Schewel. You want to know more about Bill Cole you want to know more about pizza John’s like it just prompts you into digging deeper, right? Like AI, I’m getting deep into this, and it’s I’ve been in a moving vehicle that had no driver recently. Oh, you did a Waymo. I did a Waymo in Phoenix. Nice, nice. All right, so, I mean, I have moved to the point where

04:11

now have the courage to do that. Yes,

Nestor Aparicio  04:14

what’s led you to not want to do it, which,

Bill Cole  04:16

I don’t know, I don’t want to get stuck in it, like I there’s, I could tell you some nasty stories that won’t let you ride in it again. It’s, it’s crazy. We were at the airport, and I didn’t know they had him in Phoenix. You were in Phoenix, okay, so that’s where you got it, because I saw him in Austin first all. Right, so I read about him, and then I didn’t know that they were in Phoenix. At the airport, we’re standing waiting for an Uber and, I mean, it was one after another. I mean, there are other spinning, 1000s of these, these way mows, and for the most part, we only saw one that didn’t

Nestor Aparicio  04:48

do such a hot job. Hold on. Did you think about getting in one or you just was not even considered? Oh no.

Bill Cole  04:53

Well, we would have, but we already had an Uber and we were moving on. But so we thought about doing it in Austin. But it was like a waitlist kind of deal, beta test kind of so we can get one.

Nestor Aparicio  05:05

Vegas had a different thing. It had a different name, yeah, and it only operated from 10 to six. Only operated on the Strip. We tried to get on it. We couldn’t. But in Phoenix, we dove in. I mean, we literally. We took the Uber. We stayed at a little hotel right near the airport. So we Ubered over, and then we saw them, three of them, like, on the way over mile apart. And Jen’s like, I’m gonna download the app. And I’m like, Well, I’m not fearful of it. So, like, I every old white guy I bring it up with, they’re like, whoa, driver. Oh yeah. And I didn’t have that moment with it. I had the moment of it cost five times as much, right? Because it’s kind of sexy. It’s kind of sexy, it’s kind of different. It’s cheaper, it’s cheaper. But also, and I didn’t learn this, I took it at like, seven in the morning. The next morning, we took it for breakfast. So we’re like, let’s take it out when there’s nobody out Sunday morning, seven o’clock. It doesn’t go on the highway, so it stays off the main road, so it can take you a little longer, like, if you’re going from Towson to Essex in a way, Mo, I don’t know how it would go. It probably would take like, Essex Community College route and come around the backside in some way to, like stemmers

Bill Cole  06:13

run, yeah, Rossville 95 right?

Nestor Aparicio  06:17

So knowing that it’s a little slower, but it was definitely cheaper. And the minute we got in it, it started talking to us, and I was videoing it, and the first thing I thought is, am I safer getting in this vehicle right now than I would be having an Uber driver of any repute, from zero to 100 on your Uber experiences right to the way they smell, to the way the car is. So like all of that, it was by far, it felt like I was in a limo. It felt sexy. It felt awesome. It’s a jaguar. We did it three, three different times. It saved us money every time. It took us on an interesting route in Phoenix, through this beautiful Zoo. It took us to the Phoenix Zoo area in a countryside kind of way through some cacti. I would highly recommend it. But it planted the seed for me that all of our days of driving are over for that. For those of us worried about our eyes and our vision and night vision, who are 57 if I, God willing, I live long enough to be 80, I’m never going to drive again after my 65th birthday. I mean, this won’t I mean, this is gonna happen, really, I drive after dark fast, like this is gonna happen fast, as fast as you told me. I don’t know. And Rosenfeld,

Bill Cole  07:35

I don’t know that it’s gonna go that fast, because there’s so much

Nestor Aparicio  07:39

two old white guys telling me how things

Bill Cole  07:42

aren’t That’s right, it’s hot. It’s gonna help a lot here. So if you think of the regulatory lift that that you know states have to adopt to be able to do this, I mean, this technology, those cars, they’ve been around for five plus years, and they can only get them rolled out in four cities where, you know, there’s some sort of lobbying that gets the right senators and legis, you know, to pass a bill that allows a driverless car and, well, we’re not going to let it on the highway or, you know what I mean. So there’s that’s what slows it down, the technology I’m with you. If you we stood think about the exit of the airport and where all the cars are pulling in to, like, pick people up and like you’re watching it, that disaster, and these things were spotless moving in, and I had a

Nestor Aparicio  08:34

moment in the first mile I got in, we took the first one we took was to get Mexican food in my favorite place other end of the airport, just two miles, $10 ride, red lights near the airport, very not a lot of people. We took a turn and we came up and, you know, people want to screw with these cars. Yeah, that’s, that’s what I didn’t know, that douchey drivers will try to get it to react, right? Someone pulled out of a stop sign that made our car Deek, and it didn’t have any problem with it, right? It slowed down and identified it in the same way when you back up and you and your car hits the stop because it won’t let you hit the car behind you, right? Literally, it. Someone tried to Deak our vehicle without a driver, and to freak out the passengers, thinking we hit. Hit this thing’s way smarter than the jack wagon that was playing games with it. So we did have that moment where someone came at us, you know, the wrong way. You know,

Bill Cole  09:37

I was listening to something this morning and they were talking about. So people mess with them to your point and like, the story is, if you take a road cone and you, like, put it on its hood, it’s done like it can’t, doesn’t know what to do with that, right? So people were doing it in San Francisco, or whatever. This was early, when they first came out. But an unidentified. Object the company, yeah, the company now has data on the neighborhoods where the people are messing with them, just like, go there, and what’s not that that correlates to this lack of adoption of technology, and that data is useful to like all these other people now, right? Because if there’s, if this whole neighborhood is anti driverless car, what else are they anti? Or what else are they Pro? Like, what extrapolation from that data can they like? That’s the kind of stuff that goes on. So one of

Nestor Aparicio  10:34

the first things that happened us when we got in there a it’s clean, it’s beautiful. It feels like a limo. It feels like my wife and I get frisky in there. We’re on camera. But it also felt to me like, true, this is the safest thing in the world, because this thing’s got cameras going in every direction, everywhere we go. Nobody’s effing with these vehicles. That’s the way I felt about it. I felt about like, if you f with this vehicle, you will, you’re on you’re on video. You know what I mean? It is a non stop, 24 hour moving video

Bill Cole  11:02

in my lawyer friends world here speak to me. They

Todd Schuler  11:05

what I can get Spotify to play Fugazi waiting room, regardless of what seven song playlist I put together. It’s not that smart. It’s getting on my nerves. I get pissed that AI’s in my life.

11:17

I got mad. I got this, wow, I want

Bill Cole  11:21

to really, I want to let the air out of his balloon. Here, you were liberal. So like, the number of people, the number of people who are diving in front of these cars trying to get paid, and then they’re like, Yeah, but you’re an idiot. There’s 40 cameras on them, and like, the company is defending those laws.

Nestor Aparicio  11:38

So let’s fully tell everybody who Todd Schuler is from Blondell Miller Schuler, you’re primarily from the advertising perspective. And your billboards here in Essex, you get in the car accident. You want to be the first call, correct? So I am in your lane here talking Waymo and a AI, right? Like AI and law is probably at the root of what the problems with AI are going

Todd Schuler  12:02

to be right? Liability issues will exist. I mean, who’s liable, certainly not a driver.

Nestor Aparicio  12:07

What did I do dump getting in the driverless car or smart as a consumer, what are your concerns with me, if I’m your son or

Todd Schuler  12:14

daughter, my concern would be that, as a consumer, you would have an expectation to be safe having entered this vehicle, and if that expectation was violated, whoever created the damn thing has a duty to you, to protect you, and if they, if they

Nestor Aparicio  12:27

breach that so if I got banged up in that thing, I would have called you, or a guy like you and fina percent absolutely well, how would you look at that? How would you defend or aggressively try to get me as much

Todd Schuler  12:40

whose fault it was pursue though. I mean, if somebody owes you a duty of care, right, that’s essentially what it is. If I walk in to Pizza John’s, I expect to be safe. I don’t expect a hidden you know, I don’t so before an appeal, right? I expect to be protected. I expect to be kept safe from hazard, same in a car, right? I expect every other driver on the road owes a duty to the the other drivers not to put them in danger. The manufacturer and, or, you know, creator of of these self driving cars would be the liable entity, as opposed to a driver I would imagine at this point, right?

Nestor Aparicio  13:23

Yeah, you tell me you’re I think so. You’re the damn good

Bill Cole  13:26

question. I think where the gray I think where the gray lives is like, and I don’t know what happens. I’ve only read stories, and, you know, I’m skeptical that they’re true. But like, if you get in an accident, in a driverless car, it locks you in the car right until it can deal with because it can deal with it it doesn’t. So, like, if you get locked in the car and there’s a fire and the batteries and the electric car catch on, like, these are the kind of horror stories that people are telling that don’t want the way moves to, like, be out there. So that is the scary part. And that’s like, Okay, what is the burden of care if you get an accident in a Waymo, like, if nothing happens to me, can I just get out of the car and walk away? Because, like, I didn’t crash it. I’m not hurt. I have nothing to do with the other party. I’m not operating it, doing nothing. I was just like, you may be a witness, I am a witness, and you may have duty, and you got my credit card, you know who I am. I ordered the Uber, the Waymo off my phone so you can you can call me. You

Todd Schuler  14:30

can’t leave a scene of an accident now where there was damage to an individual or or a or a vehicle without exchanging information. I wouldn’t get up and just walk out of the thing. I would make sure you had a

Nestor Aparicio  14:45

conversation. But go ahead. What’s my burden in an

Todd Schuler  14:47

Uber? I would think similarly, right? I don’t

Bill Cole  14:50

think you can walk. I think, I think people run away from Uber accident, run.

Speaker 1  14:56

You owe it to society to provide you. I want. In that car I got out two blocks ago.

Nestor Aparicio  15:04

Well, we’re having an AI conversation. I’m involved in this, but this is just one small, little example of a million different things, and AI has written commercials for me this year. Thank you. Ai, it has given me business plans, but I am using it as a Google search engine. I’m not really using AI to automate my WordPress and update my website and run my web flow and handle my billing, but I could and and, and in the last month, a lot of businesses have decided to do that, and that’s going to affect deployment here, as we have employment numbers this week that are huge. AI is the buzzword of of next year, for sure, above and beyond whatever fascism trying to run the country right

Todd Schuler  15:49

now, all it does is tell me that I need to watch Yellowstone and make me listen to Fugazi waiting room,

Nestor Aparicio  15:55

which isn’t about to be a barrier head in the sand. It’s just like

Todd Schuler  16:00

it. All it does is get on my nerves. What AI really is, is what Bill said it was, which is it’s conglomerating our data and micro targeting us with advert. Were you

Nestor Aparicio  16:09

the guy that was never gonna get on the internet like in the beginning? The guy was never gonna have a you were gonna have a flip phone utilize Can I give you a dime and make a pay phone call over there?

Speaker 1  16:24

What’s wrong with you? Big yawn on it all. I don’t know it. I have

Nestor Aparicio  16:29

a forward thinker like Bill Cole here, who knew about solar,

Todd Schuler  16:34

trying to micro advertise. To me, that’s when I experience it. As a consumer. My experience with the technology, is it making money off of who I am and the independent decisions that I’m trying

Nestor Aparicio  16:47

to make? You sound like a college basketball player the last 100 years, right? So

Todd Schuler  16:51

where’s my money? Yeah? Hell yeah, I don’t I was the enter your phone number at the grocery store. I’m a mess with them. I keep multiple phone numbers. I don’t where possible. Enter my phone number if I know murder

Nestor Aparicio  17:08

account at the giant or the wise,

Todd Schuler  17:10

I just like that. You say that people like throwing the cones. You don’t want to know what you’re buying. Such a basic human instinct to just say technology. You know, I

Nestor Aparicio  17:20

buy a lot of ice cream, and then they give me ice cream coupons for that. I am

Bill Cole  17:23

grateful. He is. He has a lot of like, Grateful Dead just like resist the system, like free flow. It is the man. It’s the man.

17:32

I don’t like the man, right? And now the man

Nestor Aparicio  17:38

might be Elon Musk with your data for me,

Todd Schuler  17:41

he’s having a ball, right?

Bill Cole  17:43

Yeah, I think I would say my, my thing with AI trillionaires. I

Todd Schuler  17:48

Nazi salute trillion done, right? How’s that

17:54

karma? Right? Like, Hey, no problem. You want

Todd Schuler  17:56

a trillion dollars, true on live television.

Bill Cole  17:59

How do you how do you do the math then and the board got together? I’m like, Well, that makes sense.

Todd Schuler  18:07

Trillion dollars feels like a little bit more than a million dollars and feels like a little bit more than you know, trillion billion, million feels like three steps in an ABC

18:18

close to bang on the table. Blonde del

Todd Schuler  18:21

taught me that

Nestor Aparicio  18:23

Sal pal Antonio banged on the table at the Super Bowl about three years ago, five years ago, for Joe Flacco, he’s making the case. And everything went flying. He went, I think Joe Flacco, bang and everything just that was the end of the segment. We were off the air. You know? That was the end.

Todd Schuler  18:36

All right, no more banging on the table.

Bill Cole  18:38

You could have just computers. You know what happened this week?

Nestor Aparicio  18:42

Todd Schuler is here. Bill Cole is here. What happened this week?

18:46

Tell what happened? Would you

18:47

know what happened? I don’t know what happened. What

Todd Schuler  18:50

happened? The Maryvale lions made a jump from B conference to a conference, and took out the Maryvale magic and penalty kicks in their first year. Yes, right, in their first

Nestor Aparicio  19:01

year in the a conference. I remember, I’m so old with mercy. I remember when they were the sharpshooters. Clarify

Bill Cole  19:05

their this is soccer that we’re talking about.

Todd Schuler  19:07

You know what else happened? Baltimore Polytechnic took out city college for the first time. And since 2011

Nestor Aparicio  19:14

that’s 14, I remember the city poly thing didn’t happen this time of year.

19:17

Remember that? Yeah, yeah. I always went to

Bill Cole  19:19

Calvert Hall oil. No, it is. It is not happening when it’s supposed to, because they don’t, but

19:24

it used to happen. It used to happen. Yeah, they went up

Nestor Aparicio  19:28

game, right? We have traditions like pizza, John’s here, we can all get together and do things that we used to do the way we used to do in the way we like to do them. Yeah, right, but AI is not going to change that, right?

Bill Cole  19:38

But just in case you missed it, what Todd was saying is that Maryvale girls soccer went from the B conference to the a conference and then went out and won the championship. Like, yeah, there you go, just trying to get something. That’s exactly what I said, right?

Nestor Aparicio  19:58

How’s your kids doing at school? You. You want to

Bill Cole  20:00

give me a little good No, they love it. It’s basketball season, man. I’ve been in the gym for three days. Like, let’s go. All

Nestor Aparicio  20:05

of these parental time to go. Luke’s like, Uncle Luke, he’s waiting in the wings grandpa. Racy was off. He he couldn’t be my co host. He’s got grand twins in Brooklyn, of all places. He’s eating good pizza up there. So people with kids and stuff there is an immersion level of like, Maryvale is more important than anything happened in your life this week, 100%

Todd Schuler  20:24

sports are so huge. I was at I was at St Paul’s BL just happened to go to that football game at Halloween. There’s grown men who don’t have sons on the team, who don’t have sons, and they’re there at their school rooting it on right like It’s bananas the next time mercy gets a bite at Maryvale to get a little bit of revenge, Coach Bill Cole is going to be sitting on the court at the at the at the Maryvale mercy classic in January. Yeah, Coach Bill’s going to be sitting there.

Bill Cole  20:54

It’s, I think what it is, is it’s, it’s the, it’s the web of your community that you know, the the Ravens we’ve resented, how much money they make and the behavior that they have correct, and the price you got to pay for a beer and like all that, like when you Go to a high school sporting event. It’s just the way it’s there’s more pure. It’s just the way it’s supposed to be. It’s

21:26

also awful at times.

Nestor Aparicio  21:29

What you’re doing fill everybody in on your coaching and your immersion and your involvement in this.

Bill Cole  21:36

I coach JV and varsity basketball at Maryvale.

Nestor Aparicio  21:39

Yeah. Time commitment. Girls, right?

Bill Cole  21:45

Voice only has girls? Girls,

Nestor Aparicio  21:47

yes, time commitment. Give me the whole deal.

Bill Cole  21:49

I mean, it’s every day. It’s my afternoon and Eve. You have to cut kids. We did

Nestor Aparicio  21:55

alright, so I’m just like, I’m just thinking of the perils of the job here. I mean, I’m actually, I don’t know if we did, but like, I coach one basketball, Pino Ranson and eight o’clock in the morning over at Golden Ring. But it wasn’t like my kid, it was my buddy who wanted to do it. I think it’s a different thing when your kids are involved, your schools are involved, your alma mater. If I coach the Dundalk, it would mean more, no offense, than coaching at 10 would, but it just would mean the same demand

Todd Schuler  22:20

like we’re a whole generation of crazy parents that spend 1000s of dollars loading our kids into these travel soccer and travel volleyball and all these sports like we there’s what’s seeing kids play sports is like what we’re like programmed to do, and therefore, I think there’s an incredible market. I think the ball market. I think the Baltimore Sun losing the box scores in the high school, the Cleveland Plain Dealer. To this day, when I go home and see my in laws, they have all the high school sports section that the sun used to be. And like, if you want to sell a newspaper, you got to have that local sports touch to it. And it still

Nestor Aparicio  23:00

feels so cool to sell a newspaper I do.

Todd Schuler  23:03

And I think if I was like,

Speaker 2  23:05

remember that what he just said about what he just said about AI, so let’s, let’s just

Nestor Aparicio  23:13

Flintstone here, carving out the newspaper with the chisel. If

Todd Schuler  23:18

I was a local media mogul, I’d be all in on local sports, on kids sports. I’d know that coach Jack Stewart

Nestor Aparicio  23:28

meetings I sat in in the last 35 you know, I covered high school sports, right? Do you know this is not a business model. I this really, I would

Todd Schuler  23:37

caution you to what I just said about this

Nestor Aparicio  23:41

over here, and he’ll tell me, it’s a business model. I would tell him, it’s a tough one.

Todd Schuler  23:46

AI, harvest some scores and some rankings for you, and just pop them on the old Baltimore positive website so that the sports love and eyeballs get there and learn all the awesome stuff that you and I give me

Nestor Aparicio  24:00

ideas. He doesn’t know how possible that is. I

Bill Cole  24:03

would just say, to his point, to both your points, right? So I know you’ve tried over the years. I know you love local sports, and if there was a way to have a sustainable business model around high school sport,

Nestor Aparicio  24:17

I’m not being disrespectful. Last night, I went to dinner at the Beaumont, and I ran into Larry Stewart, who’s done my show at the Beaumont. Larry hangs at the Beaumont. It’s his place. It’s my place. I’m Coppin, state sponsored. I love cop and state. I’m all about that. Whoever did that basketball game on Monday night that hall of fack? I kept saying, who did? He said the Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame does these around the country, and they bring local they didn’t email me. I didn’t get a text. I didn’t get a tweet. I’m the sports guy. If they’re not next to me or the fan, who are they hitting? There was nobody at the game. I mean, if you saw any of the pictures, Maryland played cop and local schools played all four teams had their thing, and there’s nobody there. And I’m thinking to myself, they’re supposed. Problem, dude,

25:02

business model. I’m not

Todd Schuler  25:03

sure they believe that anybody will care. I’m not sure that if

25:07

they’ve got you a press release run with

Nestor Aparicio  25:10

other than Bob Haney himself, I am responsible for more words, more verbiage, and more love for Maryland sports over the last 35 years, I’m in second place, right? But no one cares when they won the national championship 24 years ago, I went down to City Hall to see the parade there. There are more people in pizza John’s right now than there were at that parade with Juan Dixon. So I just, I don’t I hear you, and I wish sports were what it is in New York or Boston, or, you know, Chicago, or what I’ve been doing this 35 years. I know where the money is and I know where it isn’t, and the eyeballs high school sports. I love your passion for it. I haven’t seen the business model. It’s not

Speaker 1  25:55

just my passion. If you could have been with those boys, Latin graduates, not dad,

Nestor Aparicio  26:00

but they don’t care about Glen arrow. They don’t care about Milford mills. There was no quarterback to do a sports radio show, and I tried for years on this radio station. It was my dream in 1998 to blow up local sports. I mean, press box put a whole thing out trying to get the rich schools to give them money, basically, which is the only business model there is. Let’s get money from Gilman. Let’s get money from Calvert Hall, you know, like that literally was the business model, right? But I would

Bill Cole  26:32

the world is changing, so you got to listen to what’s being said. You say the business model didn’t work fine. Then he said, use AI, which is great idea. So if there’s a very low cost way to produce content that would then drive traffic, all of a sudden you’ve got the beginning of something part. Let me just try to

Nestor Aparicio  26:51

explain to you. I know it 30 years 1998 if I was going to do a radio show about PrEP sports, which I tried to do all the time, you want to hear about St Paul’s. You might want to hear about Calvin Hall, but the amount of people interested in just city poly, or Calvert Hall, Loyola, or whatever, the curly Calvert Hall rivalry, or whatever girls mercy, and I am forever,

Speaker 1  27:14

right? Yes, forever. There’s a whole story there you got to put there. And I know that, and that the last chapter,

Bill Cole  27:23

I’m gonna say, I’m gonna tell you that just sitting here, listen, this is possible, but I don’t, I’m not gonna give it away. Oh, you have to millions of people listening right now, like it’s possible.

27:36

Oh, oh, you got that, yeah.

Todd Schuler  27:38

But the AB, I

Bill Cole  27:39

gotta figure it out for you, just but I’m not going to give it away, all right? Because, because the AI thing is interesting, what you just said about wanting to talk to, you know, the St Paul’s guy wants to hear the St Paul’s story, and the BL guy wants to hear the BL story, and they’re not going to listen to the same I got it. It’s fine. Let’s move on.

Nestor Aparicio  27:56

Let’s move on to this. Because last week I mentioned that I I breathe the same rarefied air as Sashi Brown and Katie Griggs. I was in the same room with them. The interesting part is they didn’t meet anybody. They left, and when they left, the second panel was really much more compelling than anything either one of them corporate nonsense they were saying. The n, i L panel involved Dina Freeman from Morgan, state, and Steve eigenbrock from Towson, a certain seafood purveyor from Dundalk, who I’m not going to talk about, was on the panel about sponsoring kids and I L local marketing money, how pizza John’s could find an Essex Community College Special basketball player, soccer player, whatever it is, and their social stream would sell more pizza than I do being here for them from a marketing standpoint, or they just feel so strongly about the school, and they’re wealthy like Steve bashati, and they just want to get Maryland, I mean, the state of college sports. You guys are talking High School. You’re talking about 13 month a year soccer girls and soccer boys trying to get money for college and all of that playing club, not having multi sport athletes in this generation at all. The College part of that I just went through for the four biggest local teams playing basketball to kick off a year in downtown Baltimore in a beautiful arena at a fair price, and they couldn’t get people there. The College part of this is so fractured that when I sit in rooms, it makes my mind boggle more than AI does into how are college athletics going to survive, thrive, create interest across 30 sports and Penn State or at Maryland, and the funding part of whether this is education or not. When we have coaches getting $60 million to leave their state schools, it’s, it’s just, it’s mind boggling, because it’s not education anymore, and I’m not sure it’s really sports. It’s just a, it’s a marketing come on in Alabama and at Miami and at Penn State, or whatever. I. And it’s lost its way, but I don’t know what that’s going to mean to daughters who are swimmers or really pretty girls at LSU who can get money from a shoe company because they’re just beautiful and they play tennis or whatever they do, but we’re in a different world of marketing for college sports will never, ever, ever be what we fell in love with it for it’s gonna have to be something different.

Todd Schuler  30:24

I’m six weeks removed from watching Virginia Tech run out of the tunnel to Metallica’s Enter Sandman in a forgettable three and six season, and it was way cooler than riding around in a car without a driver. I could tell you. It was a monster. It was a crazy experience. It’s like, Yeah, I’m gonna go this how my kids are gonna tour colleges. We’re just going to football games. I want to go check out. I was at West for

Nestor Aparicio  30:51

every person I know, that’s our age, and as a kid that that age, their kid goes to Alabama, South Carolina, Ole Miss. And the whole deal is their parents are there getting hammered in the parking lot. And if it’s gonna cost you $150,000 to send your kid to school four years by being generous or my being that’s about, right? I think it’s gonna be worse. I don’t wanna sound like Trump, not, all right, 200 grand. I mean, Enoch every weekend at Alabama, my friend Shannon. Kids go to Alabama, Pete and everybody I know South Carolina, you know somebody I had had a kid at Ole Miss the other day, and I’m like, How the hell did your kid get the old? I don’t know where your kids going.

Bill Cole  31:28

I don’t know. Maryville, yeah, I don’t know. I don’t know. I mean, look, the SEC is, is inviting to everyone in this region, right? Like, go south. Like, who? Who says their kid, would you like to go cold? You know, like some do, but yeah, they go big 10, right? And then they’re the ones you really lose, because they go to Michigan, they go to Indiana, and then they end up in Chicago for the rest of their life, because that’s where you go after you leave their schools, and they never come back to Baltimore. So at least, I think college sports.

Nestor Aparicio  31:59

But both of you, at this tender age with sons, daughters and whatnot, you have this fear of losing your children all of a sudden, that your college choice should be some awful redneck you a place that’s so terrible that they only want to go back on weekends, that they would come back to Baltimore and make a life

Bill Cole  32:19

here that wasn’t about, no, that wasn’t about my kid. He’s talking about the brain. That’s just generally, yeah, that’s just generally, like, part of the problem with our civic, you know, situation, is that some percentage of our kids leave and go to the Midwest and don’t come back, because Chicago’s pretty cool, right? The other comes back from New York, yeah. I mean, like Chicago, we do, we do, yeah, but you got to think about it, if you’re 20 something in Chicago, it’s, it’s, it’s pretty nice, but we do a reasonably good job of attracting North Easterners to come down to the loyola’s and the Maryland’s and the Hopkins and and then we never met

Nestor Aparicio  33:01

one from Jersey wasn’t from New York. Yep, period.

Bill Cole  33:09

And that’s, I never understood it. That’s their version, right? Of us going to South Carolina or Clemson or Alabama or what I mean, it’s the same kind of

Todd Schuler  33:17

come back from Clemson, if you go to Philadelphia

Speaker 1  33:20

for the first time, what a city looks like with actual public transportation. You’re like, I’m never leaving Clemson.

Nestor Aparicio  33:26

It’s a good place to get drunk and fish, and then you come home exactly. My mother’s from that part of the world, but I do think they’re the more of us I know. And my kid lives two miles from here, and I rare you might your kid might live in Alabama, and you might see him like, literally, right? But for me, like losing your child on a college tour, everyone I know has taken their kid. My buddy John’s take his daughters in Miami, his other daughters running around. They’re all of this age, and their biggest fear is my daughter’s gonna go to Miami, and she’s just done with Columbia, Maryland, and it’s over with, and she’s never coming home, and that’s why mommy’s bawling her eyes out when she’s packing the bag up in September, because you feel like this could be over. If they choose college, they pick a place they really like, they’re not coming

Todd Schuler  34:13

back. Bill’s bigger concern is the sustainability of this beltway, which is still missing a hunk over the water, right down the road,

Nestor Aparicio  34:19

and I got stuck in traffic last night because of that took an hour to get to Catonsville.

Bill Cole  34:23

Yeah, just to try and bring back the original question. So college sports is really complex right now because we’ve done such a good job of raising the price of college right? It’s totally crazy, and it’s all about the experience. Well, that creates all this pressure on these average to above average athletes who are being told that they could get a college scholarship, and everybody knew, Oh, Gosh, gosh. I mean, that’s

Speaker 2  34:51

$80,000 my parents, even if it’s Shippensburg, even if it’s right,

Bill Cole  34:54

it doesn’t matter where. So the whole youth sports universe feeds on that. Oh, I know this. Right? And they’re made trying to make a living on that, because Susie might be good enough to go d1 and get some money. And so now she’s, there’s more money soccer, right? She’s playing soccer, you know, to your point, 12 months out of the year. And can’t, can’t do anything else. You’re not allowed to go away for vacation, and you’re not like it, you know. And it just feeds itself. And then when they do get that money, that is life changing to a certain degree, right? Like if, if the six other girls in their circle get $300,000 worth of college debt when they’re leaving, and the one who got to play on a d2 school playing soccer, but got it paid for, like their trajectories when they walk out the door at the end of that four years is massively different, massively different.

Nestor Aparicio  35:43

My cousin, my female cousin, who’s probably about 44 now, she was a serious tennis player in San Diego. I mean, she played with Julius Irving’s daughter, and she played with a girl that went to the eight in the US Open. She had good friends. Played club tennis in San Diego, not easy to do. She got a scholarship at Arizona, and she went for four years, and it was completely her meal ticket. Like, she’s, like, the minute she put the racket down when she was 23 I don’t think she’s picked it up in 20 years, like, literally not her daughters. No one she’s done because it was 25 years ago. It wrecked her hip. She had to have surgery. Just all of that, right? And I feel like there’s a part of it that I still loved sports because I didn’t. Oh, not, not from a radio standpoint, but from a playing it. I never had to immerse and make it my meal ticket in that way. Whereas, if you’re a 16 year old girl, you feel like I’m letting daddy off the hook for 200 grand, or I’m not, or if I rip my knee up in senior year, or whatever, I mean, that’s just that’s a kind of pressure that wasn’t the way it wasn’t done.

Bill Cole  36:45

Doc, there is something to be said for a kid who puts in the dedication, does the work, makes the team, goes off to school, plays college sports like the sacrifice that you make from your college experience to be a college athlete says a lot about who you are and how you’re going to be when you leave college, like I can juggle my time, I’m willing to sacrifice partying because I want this greater good over here, you know what I mean. So that says a lot about their character. But I think the bigger issue that I have is the lack of education for parents around all of that, you know, like, like, nobody’s given no. There’s no incentive for the parents who have been scorned, right, or the ones who missed the mark or didn’t, you know, like, is Susie really going to make it? Or am I just getting a bunch of stuff. And then the difference is, we talk a lot about this as basketball people, like the number of scholarships that are available for women’s basketball players versus the number of scholarships that are available for women’s soccer players or women lacrosse players. Like, they’re much bigger teams, but think about how our universe works. How much money do you think they get? Do they get the same think they get different than basketball? There’s only 1215, girls on the basketball team. There’s 35 there’s 40 girls on lacrosse team. So like, how many full sky, how many full scholarships are actually being given to girls in lacrosse, but

Nestor Aparicio  38:24

the world’s talking, n, i L, the world’s talking. How does the girl playing lacrosse at Stevenson get a sub shop down the street to give her 500 bucks a, you know, a month.

Bill Cole  38:33

Even better than that, even better, right? Even better than that, is the girl at St Paul’s. Why doesn’t she get 500 bucks? Because she’s driving all the girls at St Paul’s to go to the Jamba Juice or whatever that place is right down the street, and they’re making, they’re literally making their living on this school so that, I mean, then there’s, I don’t think there’s any rules that prevent high school kids from getting an aisle money, like, you don’t, how can you don’t lose your eligibility like there’s no there’s no issue, and that’s an even smaller community where one really influential kid drives the traffic of that whole

Nestor Aparicio  39:13

Sean Carroll basketball and everybody in Bel Air wants to chip in 500 bucks.

Speaker 1  39:19

Right? Definitely. Right. Right, right, right. Todd Schuler is

Nestor Aparicio  39:22

here. Bill Coles here just to reset on radio where Pizza John, it’s all brought to you by friends at the Maryland lottery. Luke and we’re sick are coming up next. We took a deep dive off the AI boat into college athletics, and we never even got to the AI thing, which was me like learning about and being excited about it. I

Todd Schuler  39:38

feel like that was me that jumped out in front of that electric car try to derail

Bill Cole  39:43

It’s okay. My only statement on that was that I feel every day that goes by that I’m falling farther

Speaker 2  39:51

behind, and you are right him. That’s what scares me. Every

39:55

day that goes by, I’m glad I’m still

Nestor Aparicio  39:58

this videotape. I’m gonna bring it. Back later. Was it Matt Lauer and Katie? Whatever her name was with? What is the internet? Or is Brian Gumble, yeah. What is the internet? You know? What is AI? I’m never I’m not touching that AI. Touch that give me my flip phone back, right? How dare we embrace progress. We’re not gonna do that

Todd Schuler  40:18

around here. Now, I left my smartphone in the car. And I’m, like, feeling that, see my

Bill Cole  40:23

car entirely fair, because he’s, he’s playing old crotchety guy right now, but, like, once he absorbs tragedy, once he

Speaker 2  40:31

adopts it, like, yeah, he’s like, you know, what would he do? How would he post all the time facebook if he didn’t have an iPhone? So I’m not trying to, you know, like, how much

40:43

don’t fall in love?

40:44

How much do

40:45

you love? How much do you love Spotify?

Todd Schuler  40:48

I love Spotify, but pisses me off that I got to hear Fugazi waiting room, and before that, it was the, remember the Hawaiian dude that sang Somewhere Over the Rainbow? What everyone with you? Every time my playlist runs out, it goes to the same song? Well, pick

41:01

a better song. I don’t pick it. IPhones. Yes, one of those Yes.

Bill Cole  41:11

Man is everywhere. Bill, right. I’m just saying, Once Todd figures out how to use it and it brings value to his world, then he’s on board, and he’s a very loyal fighter. At that point, I will bore the

Todd Schuler  41:21

stuff out of you second, the second I’m into it, right? I saw five minutes of Charlie Sheen last night. I’ve told everybody, you got to see

Nestor Aparicio  41:31

Charlie Spotify, and I still have an iPod with a

41:35

cord. Yes, you

Nestor Aparicio  41:39

know why? Because this is not a music device. This is a communication device, and it ain’t a phone, even though you might think it

Todd Schuler  41:45

is. It’s a great jukebox. And if you trade your iPhone in, and you could keep the old one and just never have calls interrupt your jukebox, just think

Nestor Aparicio  41:55

about how crazy it would be if we went back in time 20 years ago, and we’ve all known each other about that long, and I told you, in your hand, there’s going to be this thing that’s going to answer every question like you would have never have believed it, and you would have said, well, the battery must last an hour, right? Like all those challenges that your mind would have gone through then. And here we are. Yeah, here we are. The

Todd Schuler  42:18

trade off. We just dumped democracy. Instead, I was gonna

Bill Cole  42:21

go to the fact that we haven’t figured out how to keep the engines on the planes. That seems like something we should have solved. We got this. There’s, there’s a, I don’t know where I read it or what it was, but it was like our priorities are completely screwed up. Because if you think about how we spend our money, right, like, we’re trying to make chocolate chocolatey, or we’re trying to make women’s bras push up, you know? I mean, like, these are the things that we’re spending R D dollars on, as opposed to some of the other things that are out there in the world that we

42:51

could be solving. Hey, Siri, where’s the starting pitching,

Nestor Aparicio  42:55

or SNAP benefits, or just little things like that, anything. I mean, in the richest country, I don’t really even want to go talk about so great that we starve our children. It’s beautiful. Todd Scholler is here. Bill Cole was here. I love them both dearly. Best damn lawyer, damn

Bill Cole  43:10

good, damn good lawyer, damn good lawyer, it’s not that. Tell them

Nestor Aparicio  43:13

what you do. Come on. Tell me

Todd Schuler  43:15

Hey, workers comp, car crashes, construction accidents, if you slip and fall, if you are injured, call Blondell Miller and results, right? Well, I’m now, I’m gonna be tuning into Baltimore positive for the local sports flair. I can feel it already. Bill Cole’s got ideas. I just

Nestor Aparicio  43:32

know a good idea from a bad idea. And you had a good idea because solar is a good idea. Tell everybody why.

Bill Cole  43:38

Well, because electric rates are going up, and it’s an investment that has a return, so you can do things to offset some of those costs. I mean, it’s, it’s an evolving world, right? Like it is very much impacted, because we’ve allowed it as a product to be impacted by regulatory decisions, and currently, we’re going through a group that doesn’t appear to want to make it more readily available. So it’s a little bit of a challenge time in the Solar World, but at the end of the day, like, I just always tell people, and told you this a million times, like, you should know what it cost. You should be able to see what the returns are. And if it makes sense, you buy it. If it doesn’t, you don’t. Everyone’s got a roof, yeah, one thing I’ll

Nestor Aparicio  44:21

say on your behalf, I flew home last week from Nashville early in the morning on Friday, and as the plane was descending toward BWI, you know, you see streams. You’re like, December night. Hey, is that bashati house? Where am I? Oh, I see the Navy tower. Oh, there’s the you know, you see things when you’re coming in. As I was coming in getting lower, I saw more solar fields. It felt like Anne Arundel County, like that’s where I was, I mean, and I looked over, I’m like, never would have known that was there. You know, you’re driving that new cut road or whatever, and maybe off on a farm. You just don’t know until you get up above that it is more prevalent. That’s all I’m saying. I see it

Bill Cole  44:56

more often from the sky. Look, we the best way to generate like. Electricity is right above where you’re using it, so you don’t have line loss like that’s not debatable. We have all these open roofs that we don’t do anything

Nestor Aparicio  45:09

with, anything about line loss. I just learned something. I think I’m gonna have to google that. But go ahead, this is a new

Bill Cole  45:14

concept. You can just trust me on that. Okay, you could use AI

Nestor Aparicio  45:17

understand it. The greatest was its right here. What is

Bill Cole  45:21

it? Some of the electrons go away when it has to travel over far periods, right? Long distances, you lose some electrons. Just happens. My

Todd Schuler  45:30

tall guys like me, aren’t as smart. It’s too much, too much line to travel,

Nestor Aparicio  45:35

just like losing brain cells when you do drugs. What? Right? Yeah, exactly right. Kind of like that. Okay,

Bill Cole  45:40

I don’t really, I don’t really know how to give you an analogy. I’m just telling you that

45:44

this is what I’ve been told.

Bill Cole  45:48

So we want to generate it right above us. We want to use it right here, best, most efficient way to do it right. And we have flat, open roofs that all they do is keep water out. So if there’s a cost effective way to do that, we should figure that out. Roofing

Nestor Aparicio  46:06

and solar for dummies. SIG even understands it, but he’s drawn a cartoon of it over there. Right? Todd shoulders here. Bill Cole was here. I love them both equally. You owe me a mug.

Speaker 2  46:15

Dude. I gotta get a mug. I know I never think of that when I’m in the if you got Luca

Nestor Aparicio  46:19

Cole roofing hat, he wouldn’t wear it because he’s wearing his pizza he’s wearing his pizza John’s hat all the time, sort of glued to him right now. So when

Bill Cole  46:26

I invite you’re off the list. No hat for you have to go to practice

Nestor Aparicio  46:29

today. They might not let him into the games anymore because he skipped the practice because, you know, that’s the way it works. But he decided pizza was more important than the injury list today. So we’re getting ready for football. We’re getting ready for baseball. Over SIG, Luke and I are gonna have a baseball conversation, a real baseball conversation. It’s gonna be fun. We’re pizza John’s. Luke’s favorite place, my favorite place, certainly in Essex. Amongst other things, I’ve already had crinkle cut french fries, proper gravy. Somebody else got into them over there. I got a small pepperoni and green pepper pizza that way my wife won’t have any because she won’t eat the green peppers. Get to keep it for myself and a delicious Cobb salad there. So I’m ready to go chef

Bill Cole  47:04

salad. Yeah, I’m gonna go put my order in so I can take some food home, and maybe my family will, like me more,

Nestor Aparicio  47:09

upsize it for me. All right, take her something good. Get him a cheese steak or something like that. I am Nestor. We’re pizza John’s. We’re doing the Maryland crab cake tour. Is presented by the Maryland lottery, along with our friends at GBMC. I don’t want to mix food and duty, but my colonoscopy is two weeks from Friday. I will not be doing the crab cake tour on the 21st but I will be doing my duty, getting the PSA, doing all the important things, hopefully getting the clean bill of health so that I can get on with the remainder of the offseason. How about that?

47:40

D U, T, Y, or d o, t, y, I’m having a hard time with your mix.

Nestor Aparicio  47:46

Yeah, that was so good. And I like this whole action is terrible. Get rid of these guys in Essex. They were.
