The book saying that 'the average American touches his phone 2,600 times a day" was complete and utter BS though, and nobody really questioned it which bothered me. That's almost three times a minute if you are up for 16 hours a day. And then to back up that claim, Junior says he must've touched his phone 30 times from waking up until getting into the studio...that's not in the same universe as a 2,600/day pace unless he gets to work ten minutes after waking up.

I thought it was a great segment. Really interesting and thoughtful.

True. I guess it just depends on what the definition of touching. Is that every key stroke?

If we're counting each tap of the screen as a touch, then I can see it being that high. In my mind, I was counting picking it up to scroll Texags for a few minutes as one touch. Either way, this is stupid to argue about so as a great man once said, let's move on to something that has some importance to it, if in fact there is anything.

it's sensational statistics, most likely. Is every finger picking up the phone a touch? A touch for the power button? Every number in the pin code? Hitting the app? Every time you touch the volume rocker?

If you add Junior's stats together, you get 3hr45 of screen time for the average user, and you get 2600 touches. So that' 2600 touches over 225 minutes, or roughly 11 touches a minute, or once every 5.5 seconds for nearly 4 hours. Straight. Spend an hour on TikTok? Yeah, you're probably scrolling once every couple of seconds, so you can get there. But time spent is better metric than arbitrary "number of touches." I remember during the height of the Covid scare, it was all "You touch your face 30 times an hour!" or whatever.

I didn't hear the segment, but picking up your phone is different that touching your phone.

Between that and his "and the summers are getting hotter and hotter" my eyes are sore from rolling in the back of my head. He just believes whatever cherry picked stat he reads from his echo chamber of fear mongering mouth breathers.

That dumb stat was one throwaway sentence in a really good discussion about the control phones have over us and the resulting ill effects.

Sorry if already covered, but where is Corby's son going to college?

OK. Just found out he's going to Kansas.

Cobra's making the 8 hour trek to Lawrence after the Invasion today - can't wait to hear about how he was in a 50 mile long police chase or had three flat tires on the trip come Monday.

It'll be the story of moving into the dorms. I guarantee it.

Yeah, instead of a travel trip it'll be how he ran into Eddie Vedder or the Pope while moving his kid in.

I think they said that whoever wins is the "commissioner" the following year and doesn't make picks.

That's super lame. Why couldn't they get one of the tier 2 guys to be the commish?

Yea that segment is going to suffer without Corby. He was great on it. Losing Dan/Jake and Corby in back to back years may be the death of that segment.

Off topic, but does anyone remember the length of the question that won Bob the e-brake a couple years ago? Was listening to the top 10 just now and timed his opening question to Daryl Johnston at 1:35 and was just curious where that stood on his all-time list.

Wake up early and hear George discuss the SEC like it's a newly formed conference tomorrow morning for the 10th day in a row.

It keeps pissing me off how I've heard every host say that the two new schools are moving to obviously the best conference in the country when they spent the past 10 years acting like the Big 12 was just as good as the SEC. **** off.

It would get hyped again if Gordon would enter but just flip a coin for his picks
