This is dry when Josh Graham drive weekday afternoon. Sports triad man are we jampacked today, there are the two big things will talk about today. Throughout the show Diane Williams's debut in North Carolina forgive the leading double-overtime loss in Blacksburg last night and be thinking about first day when I was single I used to get excited about even though I knew they were to be awkward.

They may not go well, that's what it felt like watching Zion got off to an awkward start Zion's just trying to feel things owls just like a first date.

You're just trying to get to know somebody you don't want to offend them.

You don't want to talk about something they might not be interested in you may be checked out some Instagram videos Zion hey, this guy looks good. Is it the real thing, though, or the pictures.

Not quite look like the way they look when they show up in person so that was the early feelings but Zion. He left the perfect lasting impression. We got the first kiss on the first date. How about that.

I'm not sure about you Robert when you went on first dates did you expect the first gas I did, but probably wrongly so I probably didn't have a first kiss yeah you probably dinner.

I never really expect a first kiss on a first date, but if you do very well. Usually that something you're left feeling great about and Zion. He rewarded us for want to get to the fourth quarter, 17, consecutive points for a four from three breaking rookie records more than any pelicans rookie ever had in their debut with 22. The three-point shooting percentage more threes than Ben Simmons is head of his career so far.

More threes in a single game than he ever hit it.

Duke it was the perfect lasting impression after just one game in the most important part of it. If you're going out on a date with somebody for the first time what you want if you like the person is a second date. So what you need to ensure is that they want to see you again Zion made us want more put out on the first date because you know something that might steer some people away. Hey you you you went too big to early Zion. He had the minutes restriction fans are chanting MVP when he is at the line and when he's taken out, they start chanting we want Zion.

So what could happen the next time he hits the floor. They are your there were all going to be watching that game where left wanting more. Moving forward, you can tweak the show at sports on trial 336-777-1600 is the phone number I walked to the studio today. I was telling folks here.

I might watch I might by NBA league Pass just for this one point.

I've never considered buying league pass before I might do it just so I can watch this guy came in, gave him how I was at my home scaring my cat yelling at the TV.

Just because it was amazing what we were looking at when a guy gets hot, but you don't expect to.

I can't think of anything that's cooler than in in all of sports than that, like when Zion starts putting up three eddies burying them burying them all. It is one of the coolest feelings as a sports fan. We can have just watching Zion do what he did.

It was an incredible deal. We've got the voice of the New Orleans pelicans tag rapid meaning is going to join us in 25 minutes after that bead is going to stop by and studio.

The unofficial mascot of Tar Heel basketball and for the Tar Heels. It's a totally different feeling watching that team play then I bet pelicans fans are feeling right now this is just a team that has it been rewarded in any way for the effort they've put in. They put in a good effort against Pittsburgh at home. It wasn't good enough they put in a great effort against Clemson. They are up 10 with 208 left to go. Then everything goes wrong, including Roy forgetting to tell the players not to, or to commit a foul before Clemson had a tying three-pointer to put up last night they put in a tremendous effort without: Anthony without B Rob. They probably should've won the game, they did not, but nobody is going to feel sorry for North Carolina that something that Roy said last night and he said multiple times over. We still have North Carolina on the front of our uniforms so people expect better things to happen than what we've seen over the last six ACC games. It's the first time North Carolina has ever lost six consecutive ACC contest is the first time under Roy Williams, I believe that they've lost five in a row. Here's a little bit more from Roy. I think we'd be doing better because this is something you also made so many silly plays, take advantage of our plays like those boys, let's not forget Roy is still sitting at 879 tied with Dean Smith. His next win will make him the all-time winningest coach North Carolina history and that really is a bummer that this milestones going to come as things have been historically bad for the Tar Heels. This team has spoiled what should have been one of the greatest milestones in the history of this great basketball program. It was supposed to be special in a way no other program has had something like this occur. Having a Hall of Fame coach who became the all-time winningest coach, passing Adolph Rupp in the NCAA tournament in the Joel Coliseum 23 years ago then that guy being surpassed on the all-time wins list by someone who was on his bed, who was an alarm at the school in the building that bears the prior Hall of Famer's name.

We've never seen anything like that in college basketball. That moment has now been spoiled when North Carolina wins its next basketball game. Whether that's Saturday against Miami Monday at NC State or beyond that, it's not going to be a celebration. It's going to be a relief, and that's not the way it should feel getting back to 500 halfway through the ACC season, snapping the losing streak unlike any losing streak.

The Tar Heels have had in conference play 880 was supposed to be a number that we looked forward to seeing for North Carolina for Roy William.

Now it's just something well I hope it's gonna happen. I think the way that Roy hi Dean set it all. And the longer that the street goes, the more I'm thankful they had something prepared.

That night they had Scott Smith there.

They had the plaque they had a short ceremony, but that ceremony. I think says it all. You had an injury to a player who was playing well, who a couple days later was announced he was good to be out for the rest of the season and Anthony Harris.

It was against Gail and the entire ceremony was two minutes Roy wanted to get off the floor to see how Harris was doing. Steve Kirschner, who is the head communications guy for the Tar Heels gets in his way and says not stay on the floor. Roy he insisted stay on the floor. Everybody wanted to hear from Roy.

He refused to speak and all you had was the plaque being held up for a minute, Scott Smith, whispering in Roy's ear that his dad would've been very proud of it would've been very happy. A nice moment, but this season has taken that moment and dampened with injury and with lackluster play. Gail had an opportunity at the end with a wide open three to do some damage and they just didn't do it and then you've had the last five or six press conferences have been just incredibly awkward for Roy, including where he said honestly that this was the least gifted team is had in Chapel Hill so once again, nobody is going to feel sorry for North Carolina but as somebody who grew up in the state is a disappointing deal when something that was supposed to be historic and unprecedented milestone. Something was supposed to happen.

That was special and it spoiled that that's as disappointing as anything and I think that's what happened with this team.

It was weird trying to watch two things at once. Last night Robert, did you try to watch both games are really just waiting on Zion, I watched in a raptors game and they were right in the Zion doubleheader yes or I tried my best, I notably even in the overtime as I was on the court. I did flip over to side under the tort was one of those things as soon as I understood the rotation for four minutes. I soon as Zion subbed out. I flipped the channel and then in the third quarter when the basketball game in Blacksburg was over. I did laundry are I'll be back by the start of the fourth quarter. That's exactly what I did like I didn't care about Spurs pelicans. I just wanted to watch Zion play and I'm still waiting for a television rating to come out because there is urgency when that guys out there this season is lack were the NBA.

There hasn't been any kind of urgency. Okay, we know we got the Lakers impact and the Clippers could apply in the playoffs but with load management and all of that, the regular-season and there there's not any urgency last night there was and I bet that's going to draw a massive number whenever we get it.

The ACC tournament is in Greensboro this year it's coming up in March and we already know what the big story that week is going to be up to you with that is dry when Josh grabbed dragging everyone crazy mission accomplished Fox sports triad meal for the Hayes picked got it all away in double pump on fertile porcelain with some shot. There is no rear point career employees of the New Orleans pelican gravity: Zion debut last night and hearing his voice all across our radio station all day long today and were about to hear it again. In just a few seconds is graph is kind enough to spend some time with us here in North Carolina and I got to know is somebody who is behind-the-scenes and gets a chance to see things that others don't win. Did you know Zion was capable enough physically to do what he did last night and borrower here Josh are you doing negative thought you your physically what trying to get there. The meaning physically, physically, in the sense that all this guy is ready to play and he can contribute may be in the manner of scoring 17 points in an NBA basketball game consecutively. While I don't know if anybody thought he was going to do that last night. I think you surprised the entire basketball planet maybe is teammates were surprised. Maybe he wasn't surprised, but when we been watching him practice now fully.

By January we're in matters Madison Square Garden a couple of Fridays ago and he was standing underneath the movie basically is routine while all this is been going on as you come out well before the teams come out as a holy basically goes to individual workouts, which draws about auto 300 people every time he goes out there by himself, but when he started just basically standing underneath the hoop and vertically jumping up putting it through his legs and throwing it down with the right hand yeah I think he's okay.

I think he's ready to go so he probably could've gone out there and play competitively. A couple weeks ago, but they have been very cautious with them as they should be and they just wanted to make sure he checked all the boxes when you're talking about mechanics and measurable flexibility and what he could do in that sense nodded. Basketball said just other things that he needed goals that he needed to reach mechanically. Once that was all done. Then they announced last Wednesday that last night would be when he was going to take the court again and it still still a process is not to be out there, 30, 35 minutes. That's not that's not going to happen, at least for a couple weeks in my body going along very slowly.

The only way you can get in the basketball shape is by playing basketball.

Even the way that they practice it. They're not going as hard as you would be during a game. So it's gonna take a little bit to get fully into game shape and then will say, but I think last night. What we saw is he will amaze you in ways that you never thought you would be amazed because I promise you. Nobody in the world thought that they will see him hit 43 watch for preseason games. Josh he took one outside shot in four games and he dominated three of those four games. Get a double double. Actually the last preseason game against Antonio.

He took one outside shot that was a three in the third preseason game against Utah. So when you hear those highlight that have been playing all day you hear a man in absolute disbelief because there was no way in the world. I thought he would take more or less 13 absolutely not true. Without question three and held no sick and poor held welldoing nine we discussed this. I think when Zion was first picked by the pelicans. I told you in my experience, want to give it to. He just makes normal plays seem outstanding seem amazing like when he's guide for a rebound over Jacob portal last night and set up a bucket and it's just going to be must watch television, but I want you to take me to the smoothie King Center last night.

What's the best example of something you Saul or heard that can take us to that room that best quantifies how crazy the seam was it was lucky not been to pretty much every playoff game in that building. Going back to when they came over from Charlotte game for in the first season back with the Philadelphia 76ers with Allen Iverson with with no seats in that arena. Unbelievable. At the next season, Dwayne Wade, a rookie coming in with a playoff series with the Miami Heat and of course the 0708 Western Conference semi finals Chris Paul David West Tyson Chandler for the pelicans winning game five of three games to two against Tim Duncan and in the bad San Antonio Spurs or the Atlanta Falcons of the NBA back then when you're New Orleans basketball fan. I've been in that arena for all of those games. It didn't compare to what we saw and heard last night when he hit that forth three the roof IIII was surprised it didn't come down. I really, really, was it was a surreal moment to be there and it was almost like the it was almost like the city of New Orleans saying you know what we can do this. You don't have to be a big market to succeed, you know, I've been thinking a lot about this last night when I was on my way to the arena. If you think about it Josh on January 29 last year.

It's almost been a year to the day it's almost 20 years of the day that Anthony David walked in and basically said hey New Orleans deuces I'm out bro, I can't do this year. You basically told his teammate sorry guys I'm out I can't win with you. I need to go to LA I need to be in a big market to succeed and we heard the narrative started before it even left. Had Anthony David out the door. Day after day after day people in New Orleans were sick of it.

They still are sick of it. It's a narrative that's all. It's a narrative that hired and if you are that builder last night.

That was a big you know what middle finger to everybody else because if you were there last night. There is no way in the world. You would think that the world got a basketball trail that place was going crazy and that the is the big positive all all yeah the game ended. Not the way we wanted was a four point loss to a division rival. But last night I think everybody saw that New Orleans is behind their basketball team and would number one in their gonna play every night that we can compete with the big market we can compete with the small-market and were here to stay and not to me is the best narrative out of this whole deal sports rivalries could be dumb sometimes I think about last year when I was covered Zion with you to set people not liking him because he played for Duke but I never really believed it at all and I think it was best quantifies when I went to the ACC tournament in Charlotte anytime the ACC tournament is held in in North Carolina when Duke plays. It's filled with state fans and Carolina fans at Wake Forest. Answer always voodoo Duke is always the villain and they walk in, but when they played with Zion on that team.

Everybody wanted Duke to win and I think that's the craziest thing I saw it with my own two eyes. He made Duke likable somehow and that's an incredible achievement and I look forward to watching what he does. Moving forward I got to know that before we let you go.how many text messages for tickets. Have you received too many to count every talking dozens, hundreds… Not not hundreds, but yeah, and if I can't think David's man deuces II got up I got it up somebody else, no matter what it was. It was just it was awesome to be there last night and I just think last night we saw the beginning of a new era of professional basketball in the city of New Orleans and that's that's what you can take out of it. It's just beginning. This is a really really young teen. Most of the guys on the team should still be in college.

Josh and it's pretty cool. It's a great group there very tightknit lost 13 games in a row and there were no finger-pointing.

There was no bickering.

Hey, it's your fault that your know they just kept coming to the gym trying to get better and now the direction is deftly pointing upward.

Todd Ford to continue listening this year and hearing your voice more often and maybe maybe eventually will get a Zion dunk highlight. We didn't have that last night but appreciate@yeah it's crazy yet is a letter dunker I thought. Anyway.good.good to chat with you, baby. Well my friend. Thanks Josh any conduct got it that's dog revenue need the play-by-play voice of the New Orleans pelicans. Josh Graham loves to talk sports.

He also loves writing sports for which we can think of a live from your homage rise with Josh the last three minutes is one of the few times where the radio show inside the radio show, are behind the scenes of the radio show might be more interesting than what is going on on the air just seconds ago B.and Sawyer. They were resolving their differences.

Dave had a beef that's lasted now a couple of months. They are bonding over Jaelyn Cohen, who which is very strange because Jaelyn Cohen beat North Carolina which both B.and Sawyer root for. They are Carolina fans and B.these the unofficial mascot of Tar Heel basketball so Cohen goes off and you guys are happy for Jaelyn Sawyer last week we went to go watch Virginia Tech play Wake Forest.

He apparently knew Jaelyn Cohen and I use that with the air quotes we start discussing it and I might did you honestly think Jaelyn Cohen to remember who you are and then we go down to court level and Shirley enough Jaelyn Cohen turns around what's up Sawyer.

That's about it. His entire family to decide. I was kind of impressed by you guys are you've resolved your differences a little bit sorry I think JG gets a lot of joy from beeping. I think he instigates a little hundred percent indicating I'm just venting. I believe so, but whatever you said you were both friends and I didn't realize the Sawyer was a bucket and a lot of fire with a little while these are not a bucket. Is it fine is it. Can you stand next to Jaelyn Cohen and not be a bucket. As I possibly know he played with Jaelyn Cohen. It's different every guy on that team a bucket not I can put the ball in the neck Sawyer place a pickup earlier in the week how to go see weekly Tuesday actually injured my knee but I damn it's hard to put our it was good. It was good what your for the Tar Heel Andrew everybody's getting. So all that's happening B.he's becoming more and more of the diva more and more he spends on the show showing up late. He's pushing people around and is taking shots at me time and time again, including my outfit today, which I thought was just a step over the line. First of all, your audience most of your audit maybe 98% of your audience is never seen me so please do not paint me as the angry black guy. I am not being I say Russian people.

The diva doesn't mean you're angry, that's not happening that's not true. The drive audience to please not listen to what you been listening long enough to know the just like to embellish. However, with that being said, I'm sitting here talking to Sawyer talk about Jaden I drum up his offer 18 point I looked to my right, and I'm immediately this drastic why am I disgusted because Josh Graham sits here and at first I see is his jacket and it's a Nike zipper pull over my Job Josh is also now that I look down and got some freaking divas, joggers not only are there joggers down there zip all the way up like some bell bottom pants like in the hall. How are you doing well.

My defense I zip them up to show you what socks I was wearing. I thought it would be Nike socks and then I know the puma suck triple blanket. He's been here. I got Nike shoes on the season.

Once we get to the Adidas. We don't want to look at the rest of the outfit. Yeah, we were talking, that's the biggest special note is Nike and Adidas. You can mix any other brands you want, but if you go Nike property to somebody can do if you cannot do that.

I drink Mike's over check the flights over check this when you start, Robert, is this that much of a violation did you see what I am sure you see me on a daily basis. I'm white as hail.

I don't know what to wear with what I luxury for y'all that I come in your fully closed and no rocket is not a white thing.

This is urban thing Sawyer is right, and Sawyer knew immediately what I was talking about without me. Sawyer immediately said to see that crap Sawyer's dumb Saucedo sauce as you wish.

Going sauce or salsa. Third, he comes in here everything to me like Jeffrey saucer is a bed that was your listening from I don't think it's that much of a violation, especially when working on radio. Also, this is the only time you see me in sweatpants because as my justification for all this after the show today I'm headed up the mountain and then turning off my phone for the next couple days. I'm going I'm going up the boat is hanging out doing a ski trip to while so I'm dressing very warmly is not like I just dressing very warmly. Okay and so that's why am I'm kind of okay and a lot of driving. I'm not seeing anybody other than you. Three people here today and I just put it on blast. Just know that none of us are impressed with refreshing decisions all right but now here we are at a place where everybody knows my passion is what is your thought we would keep it in here amongst us.

The guys just, you know, just in the studio does in the man cave have some farm but you want to tell everybody that you looked ridiculous over going to let the people know that Diane Williamson last night he was on a minutes restriction and I think what was interesting about this.

How many people criticized Alvin gentry after the fact for just following up on what he said he was going to do. He absolutely did the right thing Llanos in Milwaukee. He he said that he's getting ready to play the Hornets tomorrow in France.

He says that the one piece of advice he would have for Zion is to don't rush the process just continue doing what you're asked to do and don't get frustrated. It was the plan all along for him to play the first four minutes of the first quarter first four minutes of the second first four minutes of the third first four minutes of the fourth and he played a little bit longer into the fourth quarter, but then the timeout was called once the pelicans had the lead and out those Zion and it was the right thing to do and you could tell Zion was bothered by plot.

Don't let his emotions for you. What gentry was doing was shielding Zion from the expectations to a degree, shielding them from people who are nitpicking his every move. Nitpicking is conditioning nitpicking it all and in times when you're on that stage, especially early on, you need to know structure and who you can trust. This is Alvin gentry setting structure for Zion and also showing Zion that he can trust gentry's going to do what he says he's going to. He said that that was the plan. So hey, there's no if fans or butts about it doesn't matter that is disappointed, he can't be that disappointed because that's what gentry said he was going to do so.

Now moving forward. He can trust Alvin gentry to follow through, even when it might not be the easiest thing to do, so I thought absolutely for the big picture, not just for health but the dynamic that currently exist in New Orleans. It was the right thing for Alvin gentry to hold Zion back.

I agree hundred percent and I think it took a lot of resolve from gentry to even follow through with it. I'm just like you said. He brought Zion out of the game once they have the lead that was single-handedly created by Zion Williams and the fans are screaming Zion Sonia like for him to stand on his on this since I was down just I noticed what I said what I agree with you deficits that but it also sets a trust factor in idea that he's doing that to preserve Zion's career. He's doing that for the hillside of the sofas I see that to. Also, knowing that this coach actually cares about me Me on the game.

Try to get me to drop a couple more threes, but he doesn't he wants me to be healthy and that right there is a trust factor that was built last night as well. I agree. I think it felt like a first date is awkward. You know early on he left the perfect lasting impression it was a good first date right you get a kiss but she doesn't put out or he doesn't put out. I guess the second above-listed guys put our know that I naturally doesn't even sound not doesn't sound right but I just wanted to be inclusive. I don't know if you can say that he made us pass this way he made us want more right.

He made us want more here and I guess the point is, I want to continue watching with Zion's going to do after the fact. You know, after like a good date you. You're just jumping up and down your excited when you were just meeting your girlfriend or your significant other, your excited you're jumping up and down. That's how I was in my home last night, scaring the hell out of my Watching Zion go off in the fourth quarter got to my siren going off in the fourth quarter store that she met art upturn from double-overtime Tar Heel games.

I'm super discouraged turn overseas on this midway through the third Zion plan my minute doing too much of this minute restriction I have to be at work at 5 AM. I'm going to be a Zion is not to do anything.

I go to bed wake up this morning to get the work and like now I tell you yeah you should Sawyer was doubting them just like so many other people on twitter to saying he's looking thick and it wasn't with the CC I said is looking thick. That's not doubting us to stating it was another double see that you sent me either. Spellcheck's that are different. Promise.

He was to my I'm looking at Sawyer's text messages that he sent me Zion notices. I honestly looking thick though looking thick though though so I don't ever see NetSuite ever did was take heart attack or for mistake is just something to send to Josh like Everson that text anyone else just to get the reaction I got a Josh made it completely on North Oak where I received your bleeping weird gradually to one side or doing world of Eli Manning Ellis got my top 10 giants back to become a real sports fan turns everyone it touches integrating psychotic call sports well sometimes try with Josh Graham this is something I've been looking forward to all day long at the end of yesterday show Robert said he was withholding a story from me that we could talk about on the show. He wanted it for his ticket to the house story and it turned out to be a story of a masked vigilante in Winston-Salem for the last month who's been patrolling the streets and he's been doing good has it been fighting crime. He's been helping the homeless and disguise a real-life superhero dressed in all black. He's got goggles on and it goes by the name of night watch, so we told that story and Robert to try and get them on and surely enough. Robert has tracked them down so we are now being joined by Winston-Salem's masked vigilante Nightwatch Nightwatch welcome to the show.

How are you, thank you so much I'm doing great. Be here appreciate it.

For those who haven't seen you yet what exactly is your cost you yeah it's pretty punctual, pretty pretty simple.

I've got leather jacket and gloves to keep warm and I like you said the really simple black mask and goggles here the faith little superhero me but pretty functional. What these didn't make the cut. How many how many outfits did you go to say okay for me to make this a thing and where this every night whether other nations. Yeah.

Yes, there were a ton but I definitely needed visibility breathability. I wanted to be able to kinda show my face at least a little bit like smile interact with people in kind of a positive way.

But I got a local local artist in town who offered to make me a new masked pro bono so that might be a thing going with it clearly for me. The focus is all about, you know, helping out the homeless. So the costume just kind of cherry on top. We have so many questions here on the show so I jump and Robert feel free to jump in if you have anything Robert what you got. I wondered in Winston Winston's not the safest city some kind. Glad you're patrolling this streets. I sketchy out there at all likely in the midst of you helping the homeless. Have you had any run-ins with actual ne'er-do-wells yet have what how does that go what I did today, arms try to sort some beef with you know, I haven't had people starting anything with me if if it has to do with me. It's more people to double-click but now that there's been more ability. I guess which again I think it's great to bring attention to the people just kind of like a higher.

Whatever the case may be, but I did have a situation recently where it was.

Potential domestic violence situation. The woman was kind of recoiling her partner with yelling at her and in getting in her face and it looks really unsafe for her. So I just kinda stepped in and tried to show, I will. I was present I was watching just the kind of de-escalate the situation. Again, that's not something I'm looking for. I would say 95% of what I'm doing at homeless outreach. The other is what I call proactive system to kinda looking for people to help, but with that said, if I cross a situation like that with someone who can't defend themselves look like there in danger. I'm shambling out now all of us were flamboyant out we've got a real-life superhero here on the line. It is Nightwatch is with us its Winston-Salem. Robert is the control room. He has the phone number of a of of our superhero now and apparently we have a lot of other things we have to get to very quickly here okay at first you said that people now start to recognize you.

How often did you scare people from the jump. It was more like a double take their people kind of really casually crossing the street when when I'd be walking in their direction. I tried, I try to be as polite as I can kind of wave and smile and and introduce myself or at the very least say hey how you doing that kind of thing because it let the faith that I know the optic I knew the kind of reaction to probably get but I figure that the approach would definitely outweigh the cons. They have yet don't walk into any banks. I don't know how that goes in the goggles but it doesn't sound like you're roaming around when banks are open. Is there an Nightwatch race. I don't want to save too much about my personal life if that's okay.

It's mostly just because I I want to kinda keep the focus on what I'm doing and not on you know who I am, inspiration, partner, and she's great, but was rinsed my inspiration there. I'm not the only one who got the first, there is typically one real-life superhero. He goes by dark already in New York. He's been doing this for 17 years. A lot of the same stuff I'm doing homeless outreach giving out food close all that and he's just awesome and so I I kind of wanted to have my own take on that we are being joined by Nightwatch and there were probably a ton of people wondering how they can support this. This is a cause that I'm sure a lot of people would like to support but a lot of people, quite frankly don't know how your providing a pretty cool outlet for people to help. So how can we go about doing that. I'm glad you asked that so some people were asking how they can monetarily donate I don't have anything set up for that right now and I don't know that I want to because I want this to be as transparent as possible. I've got a few anonymous donors who have been leaving materials for me to distribute at certain drop point and that's an option. Or I could meet someone in a location that they're comfortable with basically think that's what he contact me is direct message on Instagram night watch RLS H and_between those so night_watch_RLS H people could BME and I'm happy to hear from from anybody there's been so many great people reaching out and stepping up and that's really what I dreamed and it's just a perfect time for it to this week. It was incredibly cold, so glad to hear somebody's doing good and Nightwatch is doing that. So you're the question he had.

He wants to know the next time you might be making the rounds, so that when he might be able to follow you good night. I am actually after I get off the call with with you.

I've got an interview that WSI I wanted to do it so I'm going to need them by the transit center shortly and yeah him to be doing homeless outreach tonight though anybody loosely listening. If you see me out and about tonight or any night because I'm trying to get out of as much as I can and do the most good.

Feel free to say they hire join or whatever you want to do Nightwatch appreciate the time I will have to maybe revisit at a later point. It's a great thing you're doing great, thank you so much.

You're welcome. That's Nightwatch Winston-Salem vigilante so sire to spend some time with Nightwatch tonight. Sadly, I can do tonight. I have some plans but any other day.

I mean, I am totally down to go follow Nightwatch and about anybody that we can all right, so that's the plan Sawyer. He said he so excited to hang out with Nightwatch in the Nightwatch as I can do it and I saw your does not like the night you know, I did before cold. Instead of you know might be some gloves just as anything I'm going to the mountain as the show ends up going up a mountain ski trip is more important than that's it is the ski trip pizzeria. It is important to write. That's awesome, just as I wish rock you could see Robert space with. He said that some guy and woman were having to dispute the way he broke it up was just standing there so they knew that he was there is a hero that another one that we need with the city doesn't deserve or actually it's what they deserve with house along don't I don't even remember we butchered it, but that was a total bad ass man what it really is awesome. If you were creating a superhero outfit. How would it look who I would probably mix the my two favorite colors that look terrible together would be like ECU royal purple and then like burnt pumpkin orange, and I would just be a disaster.

I wow that's a good name to disaster. Yeah, to be a villain, that's for sure. I would eat the food left on people's plates after they go to the bathroom at a restaurant or something disaster and I'm like that run off with the takeoff box or take a fox or you pretend to be homeless and just benefit off the stuff that Nightwatch is given I would be the perfect villain finding out faster this.

This is like an incredible situation where you would buyer Nightwatch but what is what is approval so much that you didn't turn into the villain. I would love to be his sidekick Irving, we can send Sawyer out tonight to be his sidekick, Sawyer, do you think you could protect what you got going on somewhere get out to Winston by light 1015 I get there. It would just be so five hours from now what you have going on at night with my girlfriend and measure picture rather post a picture with Nightwatch was that the Nightwatch or to take off your goals. Disasters good to go on the radio would say if Nightwatch doesn't reveal his identity and take off them goggles. I'm getting all these lands, crackers, meant for the homeless shows up and beats the heck out of me.

Probably would for sure so great awesome Bill also awesome. We were all so excited about Zion Williamson or I should say two out of three of us were so excited about Zion Williamson last night Sawyer he's texting me & that Zion was looking really thick and then when he walked in the day just going back and forth talking about what Zion did in the fourth quarter. Robert walks and says man dishwasher game last night. Yeah man, poking him as one that came yeah right you really did a great job out there.

Yeah, he did then you said Jackson Hayes band that I was off like the guy who watches karate kid. Thanks that the the got the cobra Kai were actually the good guy were cool, man.

Now I'm not one of those guys and look I watch that game and I was, I knew we would talk about this day. So try to think about my talking point in reference to how you would talk about it and in the first three quarters of that guy game. Zion was the third most impressive rookie behind my dear Hayes and Lonnie Walker and in the fourth quarter happen. I will take us all the way out of the window, but I still wanted to talk about.

Also, Jackson Hayes look there is a 7 foot rookie played against Marcus Aldrich, one of the best stretch guys stretch big man and he made him look upset. Despite his 32 points last night. Jackson Hayes had a great outing. Anyhow, as all year but is been swept under the rug because of one Zion Williams, whatever his name is only Williamson William son was near Williams sign Jackson Hayes been here all year put in the work in the paint you want to come in your first game and throw for three down the gauntlet okay I want you to find just play some music very quickly. I want you to find a bump music of sorts, and I want to hear what the Robert Walsh radio show would've sounded like today if you had the microphone that I'm blessed to have how great of a show.

Would it be if Robert decided to open things up rather than talking about Zion in the state in which Zion played where everybody's talking about Zion. He just zags the other direction as last I was about Zion that Jackson had, I would talk about Zion did get out of the way so let's let's step back and this is how the radio show would've sounded today. If it was called the dry wood Robert Walsh instead of the driver, Josh Graham, what a game last night.

I don't know what you're talking about my producer Josh Graham is over there trying to throw something in here to me but I want to talk about that I want to talk about what's on everybody's mind and it was the rookie last night and not the one I'm talking about the big dog from Texas Jackson Hayes with the rubber loss on Robert Walters sound right. Anyway, let's talk about this to shoot a lot of threes and nonsustainable especially on his ankles. Some skinny ankles in some long legs to a man Jackson Hayes.

He was looking spectacular played last minutes and Zion and still ended up making it work. That would be an amazing radio show. I would listen to that so are you really I don't think you would know I would listen to it. It will be much out. Get ready to take to the house. Robert what you got what I told you the latest children's book how to forward written by the devil about
