SPEAKER_2 (0:09)

If I showed up at your house unannounced with a suitcase, would you be happy?

Arian Foster (0:13)

That's an odd way to frame it. Would you be happy?

SPEAKER_2 (0:17)

Well, you just said when your boy showed up, you were happy.

Arian Foster (0:20)

Well, that wasn't out of his character. That would be totally out of your character. I would be kind of concerned. I would be like-

SPEAKER_2 (0:25)

It would be out of my character.

Arian Foster (0:26)

I would be like, are you okay, dog? Like, you definitely got a spot if you need a spot.

SPEAKER_2 (0:30)

But I think that would indicate that I'm probably not okay, in which case I would need help.

Arian Foster (0:35)

I would be like, what's up, dog? Are you all right, man? And you wouldn't be.

Because you came to Houston. That was wrong, dog.

SPEAKER_2 (0:44)

Yeah, I missed my flight. I had to lay over.

A lot to talk about, lots to get to. We got baseball game two happened last night. Unfortunately, the Guardians did not win, but I mean, you're 1-1 going back to Cleveland, so that's good.

SPEAKER_5 (2:08)

Yeah, that's what we, I would have been very happy with that two days ago, after watching last night's performance. We could have been going back 2-0, which kind of stings, but series is split, best of five.

SPEAKER_1 (2:22)

Yep, long series. And then in more important news, potentially, me and Big T have a serious issue on our hands.

SPEAKER_2 (2:32)

Yeah, your people are really doing the most right now.

SPEAKER_1 (2:37)

It just got real between Big T and myself. The Smokey statue in downtown Knoxville has been...

SPEAKER_2 (2:46)

No, it's on campus.

I think it was the one right next to me. I think they put these up my senior year. There's like seven or eight of them all around campus.

SPEAKER_1 (2:55)

Okay, so it's an on-campus statue of Smokey, the mascot of the Tennessee Volunteers.

SPEAKER_2 (3:00)

Yes.

SPEAKER_1 (3:02)

It has been decapitated.

SPEAKER_2 (3:04)

Yeah, that happened on Saturday, I think, or people discovered it on Saturday when they showed up.

SPEAKER_1 (3:09)

It is disgusting.

It's a picture, I'm looking at a picture right now of the statue. Its head is in the middle of the sidewalk. Somebody took this thing out. And I don't know what Big T's heard, what his news sources are, but I did hear earlier this morning that this might concern me.

SPEAKER_2 (3:30)

What I've heard, I think, are you saying that I'm acting on background info? The UT Police tweeted out who they arrested.

SPEAKER_1 (3:40)

I don't know what you've heard. I'd like to hear the official sources.

SPEAKER_2 (3:43)

Okay, I will read you the tweet from the University of Tennessee Police Department. UTPD has charged Beckett E. Noctman, 19, of New Jersey with felony vandalism in connection with damage done to the Smokey statue outside Gate 21 on October 10th.

Noctman is not affiliated with UT and was visiting individuals on campus at the time of the incident. Now, a cursory Google search of Beckett E. Noctman will lead you to his LinkedIn profile, which reads, one moment please, Civil Engineering student at James Madison University, construction field intern at Stateline Construction, seeking summer 2027 construction management or field engineering internship.

SPEAKER_1 (4:25)

Okay.

First of all, I'm going to wait for all the facts to come out. I haven't seen any video of this. I haven't seen any photographic evidence. All I'm going off of right now is what you're telling me from a screenshot. So, do you have any evidence?
