Speakers: Aaron Rogers
**SPEAKER_1** (0:03)
You're listening to the Hammer and Nigel Show.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:08)
So it's been kind of a rough week and a half for Dr. Fauci.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:13)
You think?

**SPEAKER_2** (0:15)
You would think that a guy that had a full presidential pardon from the auto pen would be playing with house money when he would go to a hearing.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:21)
Nope.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:22)
Nope. Pled the fifth on everything, which just made him look guilty of sin.
Well, somebody that took a lot of heat for not getting the VACS back in 2020 was quarterback Aaron Rogers. Yes. Aaron Rogers, now the quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
He took a lot of heat from the very woke liberal media, the Dan Lebatards, the Sarah Spains of the world. Well, guess who's smiling now? After it's basically been revealed that from his own diary, Fauci loved fame, that he was lying, and science was made up, and all this kind of crap. And the fact that he didn't want to answer any questions, Aaron Rogers went on Pat McAfee's show and kind of did a victory lap. How do you kind of view this year versus maybe the years of the past?

**Aaron Rogers** (1:13)
I'm going to plead the 5th. Okay. Oh, okay.
God, I love that guy. Like that absolute coward, Tony Fauci. Absolute coward. Aaron's back, baby. Are you kidding me?

**SPEAKER_2** (1:27)
Yeah. 111 times.

**Aaron Rogers** (1:28)
You got a pardon and you pleaded over 100 times at the White House. What are you scared of, Tony? I thought you were the science. Yeah. I thought you were, I am science, and you get up there and you can't answer a question. What are we doing? And how much time did the network spend on that? How much time did they spend on my responses every week, on my vaccination status, on Taylor and Travis' wedding?
Yeah! Did they do even a minute? Did they do even a minute on Tony Fauci?

**SPEAKER_2** (1:59)
Aaron Rogers, the Revenge Tour.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:02)
I love him using Pat McAfee's platform to go off on Fauci. It's hilarious.

**SPEAKER_2** (2:08)
I don't love how casual he just calls him Tony.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:10)
Yeah.

**SPEAKER_2** (2:11)
Tony Fauci. Like, they're good buddies. Like, they go, you know, hang out and their Uyghur partners play Uyghur together.
Here's a little bit more of Aaron Rogers on with McAfee.

**Aaron Rogers** (2:22)
Go back to the coward Tony Fauci in science. Who's spending the entire time writing in his diary about how fun it is to be famous. You got to be kidding me. OK, so on that note, what are you going to say about me now? Debate him!

**SPEAKER_1** (2:35)
What are you going to say about me now?

**SPEAKER_2** (2:36)
I got no debate here.

**Aaron Rogers** (2:37)
You got a five. Seriously, what are you going to say about me now? Now, you can't talk about the COVID stuff because obviously it was made in a lab in China. That's like not even questionable anymore. Tony Fauci is an absolute criminal.
I'm on good terms with my family. I'm on good terms with my family. What are you going to say now?

**SPEAKER_2** (2:56)
I want to let you know, it's been a fun ride for you.

**Aaron Rogers** (2:59)
I wish you would remember that. It's been a great life and a great career. And it's nice to be sitting on this side now, especially after that coward played the fifth over 100 times.
I thought you had a part in there, TONY. Why couldn't you answer one question the entire time?

**SPEAKER_2** (3:13)
Aaron Rogers bringing the heat to TONY Fauci.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:16)
So delicious.
