♪ rachel: good morning, everybody. it's 6:00 a.m. here in new york city, and i'm with charlie hurt and joined by peter doocy. good morning, guys. peter: good morning. thanks for having me. charlie: good morning. i like the picture of sasquatch, holding the american flag. i'm pretty sure sasquatch is american. peter: we have proof of that. rachel: we did? peter: we can run are it again. rachel: how was your first day? peter: it was good. i talked more yesterday about ukraine than i ever have in my whole high. [laughter] rachel: -- whole life.

rachel: welcome to "fox & friends" weekend. peter: it's like i was the guest. rachel: you were a good guest. we enjoyed having you. charlie: you really nail the 90 seconds though. i feel like -- peter: once you stop, i feel like the number one thing, number one rule of tv is don't upset the people in the control room. if you go over 90 seconds, you're going to -- hear that, control room guys? rachel: wow. i was going to say, they hate as. charlie: i violate rule number one all the a time. peter: we'll see where the flattery gets me. rachel: yeah, exactly. well, listen, there was somebody who was in vermont is, a very liberal state, went with his family, j.d. vance, skiing. and, boy, the vermonters were not very friendly and welcoming. i don't think any conservatives would want to to go to president skiing anymore. looked at this. charlie: shocking. shocking to to find out that the state that keeps sending us bernie sanders decided to turn out in support of -- against

j.d. vance, because of the showdown in the white house yesterday. rachel: peter, what bugs me about this it's, like, if he was should be off limits. hunter biden sold out the country. there was a reason to talk about him. these kids are, like, 4 and 2. why are they bothering this man on his ski vacation? charlie: you know what we should do? i think we should go down the line, have an intrepid reporter and ask a pop quiz and get every single one of them to the identify ukraine on a map. [laughter] i mean, babe they all know it, and i'd be very impressed. that would make me very happy that all those school children, all those people knew where ukraine was. peter: interesting. this actually does surprise me because the local reports say there were between 1,000-3,000 people there are only so many saturdays left in the season, and it looks like the know when

you play the video, the snow if doesn't look great. maybe, maybe the runs are just too slicked over, or you can already see the dirt through, but you would think these guys have something else to do. the other thing about this is, as we have learned if from years of protest coverage a, they're not going to get anywhere close to j.d. vance and his family on the ski run are. like, the secret service would keep them way back. at best heir going to get -- the closest they would get to him is an suv, probably 50 feet. if you think he's looking out the window? he's looking at his phone to see all these memes from the other day, and what was the moral of the story? if j.d. vance's number one rule, just be polite, say please, say thank you. i don't think they're going to to reach him with a sign. rachel: but what are they protesting? are hay protesting that we're cutting pending? if that we're uncovering corruption? are they protesting peace in the world? what are they protesting?

if. charlie: i think they're just mad, i think they're just really mad at the trump logo that is going through. but i do think that these protests highlight just how deeply, like, nobody didn't see that exchange. and i think we have a clip of it. rachel: yeah. >> you're gambling with the lives of millions of people. you're gambling with world war iii. >> [inaudible] >> you're gambling with world war iii, and can and what you're doing is very disrespectful to the country. this country. >> i'm -- >> far more than a lot of people said they should have. >> have you said thank you once this entire meeting? no, in this entire meeting, have you said thank you? charlie: every time you watch it it's like watching it the first time. rachel: honestly, you don't get tired of it. my favorite moment, you're gambling with world war iii. and, again, this has a really huge geopolitical implications. you talk about these protesterses being able to

locate ukraine on a map. do they know in this war in ukraine has brought russia and china together in do they understand any of the things that are at a play here in. peter: and what's more important to zelenskyy, ending the war or trying to to get a better deal out of the united states? i heard from somebody who was involved in the negotiations in the in the to vault office a yesterday after the -- in the oval office a, nothing is going to happen until he makes a public apology for the way he acted in the oval office, nothing. and he's now on a world tour where he will not just stand in front of of a microphone and say is, i apologize, i accept responsibility for my actions in the oval. so i don't know what happens next. a. rachel: well, he did go to england. and in england they agreed to, to like, give him money for, i guess, in perpetuity, like forever, until this war has ended which we know -- i think they're going to give him money to build weapons in ukraine, but even the capacity they have in ukraine to build weapons, and the money they're given isn't going to last that that long. the russians can outdo them in

that, and this will just get deeper and deeper. here's what zelenskyy said on x yesterday. we are ready to sign the minerals agreement, and pit will be the first step toward security guaranteeses, but it's not enough, and we need more than just a ceasefire. without security guaranteesst it's dangerous for ukraine. we've been fighting for three years, and the ukrainian people need to to know that america is on our side. maybe america needs to know you're on to our side. because as you said is, he can't even say thank you. charlie: and p of course, the problem here is that the deal that he want to the white house to sign was the exact deal that they have had in place for a week now, and it's not changed. it's the same one. he knows what it is. they wanted to sign it earlier, but, of course, zelenskyy's team wanted to have a big show of it and sign it in the white house. and then they go in there, today blow it up, and now they don't have what they need, and now today still need what they don't have. peter: and michael goodwin's got a great timeline in "the new

york post" today where with he went back and looked at what democratic lawmakers were saying after their meeting with zelenskyy right before the oval office. these democrats that he met with were telling him to not accept the deal. don't go to the oval office and sign anything with trump. they kind of -- i believe goodwin describes it, they led him off a cliff, and they did. rachel: yeah, hay a did. charlie: after they had all agreed in principle to the deal. and let's not forget, this is the collusion. we spent how many years talking about freaking collusion, and it was all these exact same democrats who are now colluding with zelenskyy on this very issue who were attacking and, ultimately, impeached president trump about collusion. peter: is collusion not a rare earth mineral? charlie: yeah, exactly. [laughter] rachel: well, peen while, democrat -- meanwhile, democrat mayors are set to to testify on wednesday. boston mayor michelle wu, new york city mayor eric add adams

a, denver mayor mike johnson and chicago mayor brandon johnson. here is governor maura a healey of new york, she says as a former law enforcement official if you care about a law enforcement, the best way to secure the safety and well-being of our state, our nation is for local are, state and federal law enforcement to work together. so it seems to me you shouldn't be threatening to bring, what was it, hell? if you should come here with support and resources to help us address any public safety issues we're experiencing. and i can tell you that massachusetts if law enforcement, tate and local continue to work with federal law enforcement when it comes to the investigation and the prosecution and apprehension of criminals. so, of course -- charlie: is, of course, all of this is in response to their defense of sanctuary cities. i think this is so interesting. this is the hill the democrat politicians want the die on even after the election, even after polls after polls after polls

are shown how deeply unpopular these sanctuary city policies are. they want to die on supporting illegal sanctuary city policies against the trump administration's effort to enforce existing federal law, and democrats love saying, oh, our immigration system is broken. one part of the immigration system that's not broken is that it is illegal to be illegally in the country illegally. it's really that simple. and tomman and the trump administration -- tom homan and the trump administration are going to enforce these laws, and you have these wild democrat mayors of cities who are hell bent on preventing that happening. peter: and donald trump loves tom homan if. and in the meantime, we're not going to get any new immigration legislation anytime soon from congress. they're months away from even this bigger beautiful bill. and if that's not going to address immigration. but he loves tom homan, and he's going the keep sending tom homan to these cities.

and he's not going the give the local leaders a heads up because of all the leaks they've had are where these illegals wind up getting away. and so the governor, healey, might not like that donald trump is the president or that donald trump has tom homan, but it's not going to stop him. do you think donald trump is going to see that and think, wow, well, maura healey doesn't like homan, is keep him home? -- so keep him home? charlie: these clashes help trump. rachel: was it that that they were not going to get federal funding if today remained a sanctuary city? what happened to that? peter: we'll see in boston. rachel: yeah. peter: but the whole plan, in the beginning it seems like they wanted this shock and awe, and they got off to the start that they wanted to. but when they would coordinate with local partners, minute was tipping off the local media. rachel: right. peter: i know some of our guys were on a ride-along, i believe it was in denver is, and when they got -- there was, like, an

i.c.e. swath9 team and -- s.w.a.t. team, and there was a local news truck and activists screaming into the apartment complex where tren de aragua guys were, don't come out, you don't have to come out. they've had to rethink things a little bit -- charlie: meanwhile, trump actually able to point to real, concrete numbers showing an improvement situation is. on truth social, the month of february had the lowest number of illegal immigrants trying to enter our country in history by far. there were only 8,346 apprehensions of illegals by border patrol at the u.s.-mexican border, all of whom were quickly jekylled from our country orings, when necessary, prosecuted for crimes against the united states of america. in comparison under owe biden, there were 300,000 crossings in one month, and virtually all of them were released into our country. thanks to the trump administration policies, the border is closed the all a illegal immigrants.

what was that, 8,000 versus 300,000. and you to go month after month after month comparing biden's first term to trump's first term, and the numbers are like that. it's staggering. rachel: expect pentagon is now going to be sending, i think, 3,000 rooms down to the border as a well. -- troops. a lot of it is the apprehension, but a huge part of it is just deterrence. people realize, okay, there's a new sheriff in town, they're sending troops down to the border, i might get sent to guantanamo. worse, they might send me the one of those prisons in el salvador, i'm not going to go. that's stopping the flow. and i think a lot of americans are for it, and i think it's really -- you know, they can sit here and say all the a things they want to say, these mayors from these blue cities, their people don't want this. i've been up to the bronx. the people this, hispanic district saying we don't want illegal immigration here because

it increases crimes, and it decreases our safety. hard thing for them to defend. peter: yeah. and the difference is in these border states, the ones that are helping keep people out, even the democratic lawmakers are onboard with these efforts to keep people out. went you're 2,000 miles away from the border in boston, you can seek a certain way -- speak a certain way to your constituents. that's not going the fly down in laredo. charlie: here in new york, former governor andrew cuomo making waves saturday announcing he will run for mayor of new york city. rachel: and that is despite his questionable covid track record and his history of alleged sexual harassment. peter: chanley painter joins us with the details. >> reporter: hey, good morning. the former governor making the announcement in a video yesterday pitching his return to politics as a way to fix the many problems he believes are harming the big apple like crime and homelessness. he also touted a long history of public service.

>> -- do everything right in my years of government service? if of course not. would i do some things differently knowing what i know now? certainly. did i make mistakes? some painfulliesome in definitely. and i believe i learned from them. >> reporter: the democrat resigned as new york's governor in 2021 amid a sexual harassment scandal after 11 women accused him of sexual misconduct. cuomo denies any wrongdoing, and now one of those the accusers reacting to the new york post saying this, quote: it's absolutely disgusting that someone when's an abuser not simply of women, but of new york new yorkers as a whole would come out of his cave and think that he's the best person to help new york in crisis. cuomo is entering the 2025 the mayoral race behind a large pack of democratic competitor toes with less than four months to to go until the primary. in addition if to the current mayor, eric adams, other

candidates include comptroller brad lander and state senator jessica ramos. cuomo rocketed to national attention during the can covid-19 pandemic when his daily briefings became a staple at the time. however, he came under intense scrutiny on claims he mishandled lockdowns and dangerously housed sick patients in nursing homes. democrats will pick their candidate for the mayor in june, guys. charlie: thank you, chanley. rachel: do you guys think that sort of i'm coming to terms with what i did, you know, commercial, yes, i did -- made some mistakes, but i'm learning from them and i'm going to be better for that, does that work this time? if. peter: i don't know. i think a guy like him must looked at trump who just had the political comeback and think, well, if he can do it, i can do it. also cuomo -- yes, being the mayor of new york is a down grade from being the governor -- charlie: is it though? if officially, but --

peter: he needs it because otherwise he cannot run for president in 2028. rachel: so this is not just legacy, this is that -- this is a steppingstone, is what you're saying. peter: if not cuomo, who? they have no, they have to no leader. charlie: so is it -- the world i would like to live in is the world in which andrew cuomo pays a grievous to price and is drummed out of office a forever before his handling of covid. the world we live in is one where democrats is have so so wrecked new york city and the president state at a large that that actually he might end up -- voters might end up looking at a him and saying he's a better alternative to anything else we have. rachel: do you know what could upend that? if bobby kennedy. if we get a reckoning -- charlie: i like it. rachel: -- can of exactly what happened. there's a mental thing that we have. there's -- charlie: always thinking outside the box. rachel: a lot of people say let's put that behind us, it was so traumatic, it was so bad.

but there's a lot of other people who were like, no, no, no, this will happen again unless we find out what happened. tell us about the vaccine. we want to to know about all the lies told us, who was making money off this. if bobby kennedy uses his office as he should in that position to actually bring the truth to light, that might actually make -- charlie: first person in history to use hhs secretary as a steppingstone to higher office. that would be truly fantastic. all right. turning now the your headlines with a fox news alert, urn certainty in the -- uncertainty in the middle east as israel has stopped the entry of goods and supplies into with gaza is. hay had received more than 25,000 trucks filled with aid meaning the civilians of gaza have not been left without aid. now israel wants to the extend phase one through passover and ramadan alongside more hostage releases, but hamas is refusing.

that. that does wind down as you ultimately get into your monday, so it's a brief, kind of big cooldown there if you take a look at the week ahead. this is your forecast next week, a couple of low pressure if systems sweeping through across the northern tier, chance for more snow. the southeast, we're looking at a couple rounds of maybe some big weather moving on through. some severe storms, we'll certainly be paying attention to those before that does lift and bring rain back across portions of the northeast. those are your weather headlines, for now, carly, over to you. -- charlie, over to you. charlie: as the media and democrats freak if out about the department of government efficiency's latest efforts, our next guest is spelling out the full truth of doge and all it can do. he says in a fox news digital the op-ed, quote, the need of the hour is doge to set a tone not of chaos and tour fury -- fury, but of prudence and common sense and for congress to work off of that tone to do sensible

reform to our budget. here with more is bahnsen group managing partner, david bahnsen. great to see you this morning, thank you for joining us. but there are a lot of freakout toes going on. -- freakouts going on. and i feel like for a lot of these people who are freak out, they're not actually paying attention to the specifics. >> i think very few are paying attention, because their freakout is mostly political. the whole idea that we don't know who's in charge of doge, the people who put up with biden not being president in the white house are now worried they don't know who this elon musk guy is. it's disingenuous. a lot of the freakout is because certain things are being cut and certain things are being exposed that are embarrassing. ultimately, my point is let's take all this good energy, but congress has got to run with it. they're the ones who have to do something more long term. charlie: yeah, it's kind of interesting, one of elon musk's strategies with his companies is when he decides to cut an assembly line make it more

efficient, his rule of thumb is if he doesn't have to go back and put back 25 a% of all that he cut, then he didn't cut deep enough. and i think we're getting some of that because there have been mistakes and errors, but that's all a kind of part of cutting the chainsaw. >> there's this old expression that you've got to break a few eggs to make an omelette. i would like to know what exactly is the omelette we're getting to the. we're told it's the cut spending out of the budget, but doge can't do that. so they have to embarrass certain aspects of misuse, fraud, waste, corruption to the point where congress actually cuts so it is part of the budget. charlie: so how does that that work or exactly? in i agree, i think that's the most important thing. you've got slim majorities, but you can actually buttress all of this is -- this with legislation. >> all the executive branch can do is enforce. the president has a plot lot of plenary authority to enforce laws x that's where a lot of this oversight of departments,

some of which should be going away, is important. but, yeah, congress leapts, and the budget is part of legislation. i think if you do enough embarrassment, you'll get democrat votes on some things because public support will be overwhelming for how ridiculous some of the expenditures are. that's where chaos and fury thing i allude to comes in. if it's just perceived as too much chainsaw, not enough razor, then at that point i worry that it won't have the effect to get congress to act. charlie: well, and i love that you're pointing out the fact that this is not just a technical thing that's going on here, it's a political thing. >> oh, yeah. charlie: and they can continue to wield this political cud gel to get things done for taxpayers. >> if that's where vivek was part of this early on, he's a great communicator. if doge was just a pr effort, that's okay with me, because you need to expose. the u i said thing is a big example -- usaid.

how many americans had heard of it? now they know there was a couple good things going if on, but there was, 80 or 90% was reallying, really bad. so you have to expose that. but then that's the thing, congress has a got to act a, and congress doesn't like to take big, bold act action a. that's' what we've got to do. charlie: david bahnsen is, thanks so much for break it down for us. shifting gears, abby hornacek is live the are if st. petersburg, florida, ahead of the indycar series on fox. ♪

hey, abby. >> reporter: what's going on, peter? yeah, that's right. they're actually mounting the tires for today's race, which is pretty cool. doug was mice enough to wake up -- nice enough to wake up early with us. you're the president of the indianapolis motor if speed ifway, so i guess my question to you is since the speedway hosts both fast car and indycar, what draws fans to indycar versus nascar? >> obviously, the cars are completely different. we are fortunate, we get to host both of them. the indycars are much faster, 240 miles an hour, and nascar ie an hour range. these are the differences. but the cars are absolutely different. these are nimble, fast if race cars. built to bump and bang and go long distances. >> reporter: i notice there aren't treads on the tires. why is that? >> you want as much of your tire touching the ground as possible. on our streetcar, we want to

move the rain through the grooves in the tires. you want all the rubber on the racetrack. the faster you can go around corners. it is kind of weird. it doesn't make it slicker, they heat up, and it headaches the car stick more to the ground. >> reporter: interesting. you have decades of motor sport experience, you're very impressive. how have you seen indycar grow is change over the last several years? >> the the series is growing very, very fast, we're very diverse. the drivers run are on treat courses, natural road courses that we have all over the country and and then on values, and it's the best drivers in the world from all over the world. that's what really makes us different and why we're is special. >> reporter: such a global sport. doug, you're amazing, thank you so much is. i'm looking forward to the race later today, anything, very quickly, that the fans should expect in. >> if you're coming out to this race, get out here early, there's a lot of things that that go on before. and if you're getting ready to watch it, go get ready for the

greatest racing in the world. >> reporter: peter, i'll send you videos. it's a huge bummer for you with, because this is pretty cool. peter: yes, very cool. we'll be watching at noon, abby, thank you. and if coming up, president trump taking on venezuela saying the country is not helping with his migrant crackdown. the major blow he's dealing to that country next. dry... tired... itchy, burning... my dry eye symptoms got worse over time. my eye doctor explained the root was inflammation. xiidra was made for that, so relief is lasting. xiidra treats the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease. don't use if allergic to xiidra and seek medical help if needed. common side effects include eye irritation, discomfort, blurred vision, and unusual taste sensation. don't touch container tip to your eye or any surface. before using xiidra, remove contact lenses and wait fifteen minutes before re-inserting. dry eye over and over? it's time for xiidra.

rachel: president trump dealing a major blow to venezuela, revoking a license to export if oil there, accuse dictator nicolas maduro of failing to take back violent migrants. the opposition leader backing trump's move in an interview with me on fox noticias, watch. [speaking spanish] rachel: joseph humeyer is executive director at the center for a secure is, free society, and he joins us now. joseph, welcome. so so let's get get started with this, no surprise, right? maduro doesn't follow through with his end of the bargain, and

so donald trump removes these chevron licenses. explain what they are and why that's so important. >> so back when the maximum pressure campaign in 2019 there was an effort by with, basically, the oil lobby the carve out exemptions for a specific company, marley chevron -- particularly chevron, to be able to continue to do oil activity inside venezuela despite the sanctions. and when the biden administration came in, today essentially renewed it every six months or year. this is something that the opposition of venezuela, you knowed the video, has been very critical of because it thinks a big sense of revenue for the maduro regime, basically gives them oxygen to continue to repress their people x. if when president trump began his presidency, he got a lot of criticism by the venezuelan people because they said he's not going to end this oxygen, this chevron oil license are. but the reality of that was that we were trying to talk to

nicolas maduro about having a relationship that was based on reciprocity, a relationship where he would help us with something that's very critical for the united states, which is deportation flights. so is we gave them a chance. we sent them a special envoy, worked out a deal, and in the period of about ath month, he only accepted two flights. that's not enough. i think president trump understood that, so he's going to try to work out a deal. if it doesn't work, we know how president trump reacts, it's with punitive measures, and that's what happened. rachel: what's the future for the resistance movement? >> unfortunately, maria's m more like a hostage inside her own country. she doesn't are any movement, has limited ability to talk to her people. every time she leaves, she potentially gets aced, kidnapped or worse, so i think her future's going to be most likely be outside of venezuela where

she can have a tremendous voice talking to the venezuelan diaspora that's all over the world right now. she's a very criss pattic leader, strong and brave leader, and the most important thing for her is to to remain safe, out of jail and alive. rachel: yeah. for sure. she'd -- she's made tremendous personal sacrifices in terms of her family as well. many of them having to flee. she is truly the most brave woman in all of latin america. joseph, thank you so much for joining us, and we'll keep an eye on latin america. donald trump definitely is reshaping what's been going on there politically. thank you so much. >> absolutely. thank you, rachel. rachel: peter. peter: thank, rachel. turning now the your headlines, the ntsb is investigating a fedex boeing 767 engine fire after a bird strike forced the plane to make an emergency landing at newark international

airport. here you can see the plane if returning toll runway. thank -- to the runway. thankfully, all three people were unharmed. transportation secretary sean duffy says the incident if highlights the importance of having the best and brightest professionals in aviation. he also shared that more than 19,000 bird strikes happened in 2023 with as many as 6% causing damage. with spring break just around the corner, officials many if miami are crooking down on potential chaos. police are enacting the same no nonsense security security measures adopted last year and saying not here to spring breakers looking to get crowd key. >> i say we're a law and orderty, i want miami beach to be the is safest in america. that's my goal. anything short of that that, i'm not going to stop. so, certainly, the measures we're taking not just during the month of march, but all a year round, i think other cities can learn from. peter: the city is warning visitors to expect curfews, dui

checkpoints and early beach closures. and now to a story that makes us smile. a toddler in oklahoma calling 911 to tell police about an emergency need for doughnuts. >> -- doughnuts. >> doughnuts? i want doughnuts. >> are you going to share your to doughnuts? >> [inaudible] >> i talk to mom? >> -- [inaudible] bye!

peter: a new fox nation series is giving viewers the most in-depth hook at alabama's legendary football program and how faith leads the team. >> our father -- >> who art in heaven, hallowed be with thy name. >> decades and decades of success, of people leading the program that have a made this place what it is. that's our job, to continue to build on it and a make it better. charlie: it's called the tides that bind: inside alabama a football. and here now is the show's executive producer and former alabama football player, caleb castille. great to see you with. thanks for joining us. >> thanks for having me. chair shar tell us about the -- charlie: tell us about show. >> it's unlike anything football you've seen -- any football show you've seen before. this show is a deep dive into the lives of these characters, these players, the coaches, the staff and really a unique way that you've never really seen

before. we take you and drop you right into the locker room, basically, as you see in this clip right here. in a way, yeah, that you really haven't been able to see. you get to see the secret sauce, and that secret sauce is faith -- rachel: let's play a clip from that, and we'll get a conversation on the other side of that. with whether all of the things that can come against you that will be, the challenges, the trials, the tests, it's not in your own power. [applause] what it says about my spirit. rachel: this is the really fascinating to me. one -- first of all, football is just so americana. everyone, when you like sports or not, you understand it has an impact on our culture. i come from reality tv, i was on the real world a long time ago, but i think people are interested in not just the sports, but the journeys of these people. >> speaking of the journeys,

that was my father. by dad, he played at the university of alabama in the late '70s, early '80s under a legendary coach, so this is impact. it's family. this place impacted me directly, and i wanted to be able to put that this on display, right? this storied university, how it not only impacted me, but the community. charlie: your dad's the team chaplain. >> yes. peter: and everybody over the last decade plus has known all about a alabama football. they've been number one, basically, forever. and as you got the idea for the show, nick saban, probably going to be one of the big stars, and then he just disappeared. [laughter] >> yeah. so he, yeah, is a huge star in himself, and we were super excited, you know? i think back now, man, how cool would it have been for the first season of our show to be his last season coaching football. we weren't that fortunate, but we were fortunate must have to have him bless the show, so so

it made the transition -- charlie: and people had tried to get make say ban to -- nick saban to go along with making a show like this for a long time, but it wasn't until you and your family came along that he agreed to do it. >> it was about a two-years process trying to to get coach saban and the university9 and the board of trustees and, you know, all the a higher-ups to ayes to the show. and i have to to accredit it to my dad and the time that he spent serving there. he's going into his 24th season serving as the team chaplain. so he's had a footprint there for a while. rachel: you know, we always -- we talk a lot about a how things have changed in america for the worse, but i think we take for granted just how faith-filled our country actually is. >> yeah ray this kind of show and the faith angle of it couldn't be done in any country in europe, let's be honest about that. america's till a christian -- still a christian country, and i lo you're bringing those two

thing thises together, football and faith. it's a great show. catch it, by the way, you can stream it, let me see here, the first two episodes are on fox nation right now. new episodes will be arriving every wednesday. charlie: and you don't have to be an alabama fan or even a football fan to probably really enjoy this. >> not at all. charlie: i can't wait to see this. >> yeah. it's really good can. i'm biased but -- rachel: do we cover cheerleaders? >> we have some majorettes -- rachel: okay, i'm in.
