1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,920
Speaker 1: You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.

2
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:11,080
Speaker 2: For those that listen, know that my wife is in

3
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 2: northern Michigan right now and we have a place up there.

4
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 2: My parents live up there. We had a my aunt

5
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:19,280
Speaker 2: was in a bad car accident. My wife has been

6
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,240
Speaker 2: helping out with the family and things like that. So

7
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 2: she's up there. And Mark, you had a story earlier

8
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 2: about travel and how this storm is going through and

9
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 2: you actually mentioned a couple of cities. One you said,

10
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,800
Speaker 2: Traverse City down to Kalamazoo. Ah. Yeah, I don't know

11
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: if you remember doing the story. It was earlier in

12
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 2: the show. I do not have COVID brain damage. I

13
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 2: remember it. You do, Okay, good. So I went to

14
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,279
Speaker 2: college in Kalamazoo, actually one of the many colleges i'

15
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 2: dropped out of. And our place is basically dead center,

16
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 2: right in the middle of that that from Traversity to Klamazoo.

17
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 2: We're kind of right in the middle of that is

18
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 2: where we are. So I'm talking to my wife about

19
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 2: quarter after three today, as I do every day. I

20
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 2: talked to her in the morning, in the afternoon, and

21
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 2: because I'm you know, I'm in love, and all of

22
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 2: a sudden, she just goes, oh no, what crap crap, crap, crap, crap,

23
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 2: crap crap, Oh god ow, And I thought, I thought, okay,

24
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 2: either she dropped something, she got a foot cramp. She

25
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 2: also makes those same noises when she gets foot cramps,

26
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 2: or you know, third option is just other and what

27
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 2: is this? She goes, we just lost power. So she

28
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 2: showed me video and the wind was crazy. H it was,

29
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 2: I mean, really stirring things up. And I've seen some

30
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 2: other posts online of Lake Michigan. It's the kind of

31
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 2: storm no joke. I looked at this on the radar.

32
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 2: In fact, Mary and I were talking about this. I

33
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 2: looked at this in the radar and it's swirling over

34
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 2: Lake Superior. Now where are our places off of Lake Michigan.

35
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 2: But it's swirling over Lake Superior, very similar to what

36
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 2: it did when it sunk the Edmund Fitzgerald fifty years ago.

37
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 2: It's got that same swirl to it, right. So she

38
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 2: was showing me this stuff powers out and I keep

39
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 2: getting updates from the power Companies's not gonna be on

40
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 2: until you know, one o'clock two thirty in the morning.

41
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 2: I'll keep getting delayed longer and longer and longer. So

42
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 2: I guess just be glad that we're not dealing with

43
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 2: any of that crap. And I have to be I

44
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 2: have to be very cautious because you know, she's it's

45
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 2: it's it's not easy, right, it's a pain. She's there

46
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 2: by herself, she got a big fat dog, Her internet's out,

47
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 2: she has no power. There's that means no power means

48
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 2: no heat, right, and it's cold, and so she's just

49
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 2: curled up under the blankets with the dog right now.

50
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 2: She needs to We've got we've got some backups in

51
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,399
Speaker 2: place because it is it is the Great White North,

52
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:29,799
Speaker 2: so we've got some backups. But she doesn't want to

53
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 2: deal with it. And I have to be very cautious

54
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,119
Speaker 2: not to go, Oh, that's too bad. It's really nice here.

55
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 2: I think I might just go put on a sweatshirt.

56
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 2: Oh boy, you know there's no snow around us. Oh,

57
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 2: it's actually a really nice night to go for a walk.

58
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 2: I have to be very cautious not to do that. Yeah,

59
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 2: tomorrow is going to be a short stay. It's going

60
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 2: to be around eighty Yeah, I can't say that there.

61
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 2: See I can't do that. Well, you could, I know.

62
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 2: The thing is, I've been that. I've been that guy

63
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 2: enough times that she kind of expects it. But you know,

64
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 2: kind of my brand is to keep people guessing. So

65
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 2: the minute I become predictable, then I'm boring. So I

66
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 2: guess maybe I'll just kind of be nice to her

67
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,959
Speaker 2: for a little while throw her off. Yeah, okay, that's

68
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 2: what I'm thinking. I mean, it works with you sometimes.

69
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 2: I know I'm nice to you and you don't know

70
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 2: what to say. No, no, it really stops me in

71
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 2: my try, it does. It does. I try to keep

72
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 2: you on your toes. Huh. Hey, that's right in your

73
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 2: wheelhouse because I know you and I talk about we

74
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 2: talk about what's streaming all by the way, Pluribus on

75
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,839
Speaker 2: Apple Plus. I'm loving it so far.

76
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna watch that until the whole thing is

77
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 3: out and I can just chain watch it all, just

78
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 3: like I did with Breaking Bad.

79
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 2: It's another Gilligan chair. It is, it is, it is. Yeah.

80
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 2: And Ria Sehorn is amazing and it She's really incredible.

81
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 2: I mean, she was amazing in a better Call Saul,

82
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 2: and she's just I mean, her talent is is top notch.

83
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 2: But I would I would recommend that I'm having great

84
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,119
Speaker 2: conversations at work with someone who's a gen Z that says, oh,

85
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 2: this is about AI. And I went, I'm not picking

86
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 2: that up. And I said, I'm thinking that this is

87
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 2: about someone finding their place in society and not conforming

88
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 2: but also having expectations. And she goes, no, no, this

89
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 2: is about AI. And I went, that's funny because I said, now,

90
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 2: maybe this is old school of me because I look

91
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 2: at things. I look at all all theater, theater, film,

92
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 2: whatever it is, right, I go, is about human relationships,

93
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 2: all of it is. That's what it's about, right, I mean, Mark,

94
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,720
Speaker 2: you Wright, you write a lot. Everything you write is

95
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 2: in some way, shape or form about human relationships.

96
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 3: Well, I think Faulkner said it best. He said, it's

97
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 3: about the human heart and conflict with itself.

98
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. Now that doesn't mean AI can't be a character

99
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 2: in that conflict, but it all has to be about

100
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 2: the human the human condition, of course. So I not

101
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 2: even considered the AI. So I'm curious when you watch it,

102
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 2: if you see it the way that she does and goes, oh, yeah,

103
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 2: this is commentary and AI, or if if this is

104
00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 2: more about you know, no, this is about relationship, absorb

105
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 2: or finding our place in society.

106
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 3: I'll have to get to it soon because I've seen

107
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 3: a lot of comparisons to the nineteen sixty seven show

108
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,159
Speaker 3: The Prisoner, which is one of my favorites. And I

109
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 3: just got booked to do a chapter in a book

110
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 3: about The Prisoner's sixtieth anniversary. So it's kind of homework

111
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 3: for me at this point. Boy, that's gonna be a

112
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 3: best seller. There's baby. So now are you switching it

113
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 3: up now again? Are you going mean?

114
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 2: Now? No? No, I'm just I can't wait. Do you

115
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 2: want me to send you an autograph copy? Is that

116
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 2: what you? I do? I want to be the guy

117
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 2: that has copy number seven when it hits the New

118
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 2: York Times Bestseller though, oh look at the time, Oh crap,

119
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 2: we got a few minutes left. So Warner Now, as

120
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,239
Speaker 2: we talk about streamers, Warner Brothers Discovery is moving forward

121
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 2: this according to Barrett Media, with their potential sale, they're

122
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 2: looking now for higher second round bids from any interested buyers.

123
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,919
Speaker 2: That according to multiple reports, So Water Discovery, as we

124
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 2: all know, they've gotten, uh, they've gotten some I don't

125
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 2: know if they've been official bids or inquiries or whatever

126
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 2: it is. But but Paramount sky Dances what everybody keeps

127
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 2: talking about. Uh, they say, they're the ones that have

128
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 2: not only the backing, but they're gonna have the federal

129
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 2: backing as well. They're gonna they're gonna be able to

130
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 2: clear any sort of u FC not fcc U, the

131
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 2: financials hurdles, the SEC. Excuse me that I couldn't come

132
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 2: up with it for whatever reason, the SEC hurdles and

133
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 2: any other hurdles that they might have to because of

134
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 2: the relationship with the Ellisons and the Trump So they go.

135
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 2: Paramount seems to be the one that that is kind

136
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 2: of the top dog, and Paramount would likely keep Warner

137
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,919
Speaker 2: and Discovery both the film and the linear model together,

138
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 2: so that's the thinking by the media experts. However, Comcast

139
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 2: is also interested, as is Netflix, and one might believe

140
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 2: that Comcasts would look for that linear model the Discovery

141
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 2: that the television product, whereas Netflix may want to tap

142
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 2: into the Warner library. So we don't know exactly how

143
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 2: this is gonna pan but what we do know is

144
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 2: that Warner is moving forward. Bloomberg News first report of

145
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 2: the deadline for the second round submissions. The company could

146
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 2: enter exclusive negotiations with one bidder once the new proposals

147
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 2: are received. First round offers submitted a week ago last

148
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 2: Thursday by those three, and now they go, great, we've

149
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 2: got it. What's your next offer? So it sounds like

150
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 2: Warner is not only moving quickly on this, but they

151
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 2: are also and I don't know if this seems oddly

152
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 2: public to me for a merger acquisition. Paramouse bid was

153
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 2: for twenty three to fifty a share eighty percent cash,

154
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 2: twenty percent stock that was rejected by Warner Brothers Discovery.

155
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 2: The company submitted a first round bid similar to the

156
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 2: prior offer back by the Ellison family, including Oracle founder

157
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,960

158
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 2: of the bids from all parties remain unconfirmed, so we

159
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 2: don't know exactly what it is. What we do know, though,

160
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 2: is that round one is done. Hey, we got your bids, guys,

161
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:00,440

162
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 4: So?

163
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 2: I guess I guess they've started bidding war for Warner Discovery.

164
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 2: So there you are. They don't have pluribus. That's on

165
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 2: apple Stoe all right. You think trademark fights are going

166
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 2: on in boardrooms right. Oh, we've got a trademark fight. That'

167
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 2: sounds boring, it's not. In fact, this trademark fight could

168
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 2: lead to a Grammy. I'll tell you why that is. Next.

169

Speaker 5: Mark you like this, mister Marrow. You're definitely worth listening to.

175
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,200
Speaker 5: And you are an indicate guy. Because the anti dude

176
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 5: I had to break out the sativa. I needed a

177
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 5: little more uplifting. Wow, you you're cool. I like you,

178
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 5: just nice and meldow. Okay, so you got to hand that.

179
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 5: Should I send that to Andy?

180
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:02,439
Speaker 6: Yes?

181
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 2: Yes, Andy would like that. Send it to all the bosses. Oh,

182
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 2: I love Andy. I I always like I like listening

183
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 2: to Andy's show. I told so, Andy first started doing

184
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,559
Speaker 2: stuff on the weekends, and he would do things on

185
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 2: Sunday Sunday afternoon, and I would take over Sunday evening

186
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 2: and I just I remember thinking, I God, I can't

187
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 2: stand it when these guys they come off TV and

188
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,200
Speaker 2: they step into a radio studio and they're good. You know,

189
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,680
Speaker 2: I just oh drives me nuts because it's not like

190
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 2: I can just walk out of a radio studio and

191
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,079
Speaker 2: onto a TV set and suddenly I'm good and TV ready.

192
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 2: But Andy's oh, he sounds good, and not everybody can

193
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 2: do that. By the way, Andy has a he has

194
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 2: a particular set of skills. And anyway, I think Andy

195
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 2: does a great job.

196
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 6: So he's got that hair too.

197
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 2: He's amazed. I mean, he's an amazingly good looking man.

198
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 6: He's called Princess die hair. It's beautiful that.

199
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 2: I mean that. The was my first thought too.

200
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 6: It's like a wave.

201
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 2: Yeah. Are you saying he's a little end trogynous? Whoa?

202
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 3: Hang on, well, hold on, I'm not the one who

203
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 3: whipped out Princess Dying.

204
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,719
Speaker 6: Okay, I'll revise that he looks like George Michael and

205
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 6: wham with that hair.

206
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 3: Well I don't know about that either, So I'm just

207
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 3: being ay better. Yeah, never forget I said anything.

208
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 2: No, I'm just saying he looks like Annie Lennox and

209
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 2: it's still not still.

210
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,319
Speaker 6: More and doing it.

211
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, not really helping this early bowie Okay, nailed it. Yeah,

212
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 2: that's where I was going next.

213
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 6: To in Orlando.

214
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it definitely looks like you're not You're not.

215
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 2: You're not doing a many favors here, all right, moving on? Okay,

216
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 2: So m em and m is involved in a trademark

217
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 2: war and it's all about slim shady baby. If you

218
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 2: haven't heard, this is continued to take twist after turn

219
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 2: after turn after twist, which means it is a long

220
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 2: and winding road. My friends, Eminem is not happy with

221
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:12,199
Speaker 2: a couple of Real Housewives stars. Why well, according to

222
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 2: the lawsuit, and forgive me for not knowing this ahead

223
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 2: of time, I did not know that the Real Housewives

224
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 2: of Potomac had begun their own podcast called The Reasonably

225
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 2: Shady Podcast. Yeah, Giselle Bryant and former castmate Robin Dixon.

226
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:36,559
Speaker 2: According to Eminem, Marshall Mathers, if you will, are harassing

227
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 2: him over a deposition tied to their long simmering trademark fight.

228
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 2: So they wanted to do this podcast, a real life podcast.

229
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,840
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, you must be a celebrity. So they're

230
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 2: doing a real life podcast. Oh, I can't wait to listen.

231
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,319
Speaker 2: I bet they have so much to say. And they

232
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 2: call it this reasonably Shady, which he says is a

233
00:11:54,280 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 2: playoff of his shady trademark real slim, shady, reasonably shady. Right, Okay, However,

234
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 2: they're saying, no, it isn't. We're just shady people, and

235
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 2: so this is a reasonably shady podcast. That's their stick.

236
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 2: He goes, no, no, you can't do that. I've already

237
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:15,680
Speaker 2: I've already trademarked shady for entertainment related things. All right,

238
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 2: So what's going on now is he's suing them for

239
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 2: basically trademark infringement. Now they're mad, and we've got it.

240
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 2: The chapter is evolving. Now they're mad because he is

241
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 2: not really sitting down for a deposition in a timely manner.

242
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 2: He's doing a lot of negotiating. I can do two

243
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 2: hours of a deposition and it has to be at

244
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 2: two pm. And they're like, why are you being so difficult?

245
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 2: And he says, why are you guys being such real housewives?

246
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 2: I mean probably different words. But then the claim is

247
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,679
Speaker 2: that he's working on new music. Ooh, he can only

248
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 2: sit down for a deposition at two pm because he's

249
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 2: working all morning on new music. I don't believe that,

250
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 2: but I'm no No, it's not that I don't believe

251
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 2: that he's that he's working on new music. I don't

252
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 2: believe that he's working early in the morning on new

253
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:13,079
Speaker 2: music because as a musician, musicians notoriously don't get up early.

254
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 2: They're not exactly early risers, and so it would seem

255
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 2: to me that he's far more likely to be working

256
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 2: on new music starting about starting about two or three

257
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 2: o'clock in the afternoon. That could be totally wrong. I mean,

258
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 2: I don't know the guy. Maybe he's like, oh whoo,

259
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 2: six thirty, gotta go up and take my run. Oh,

260
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 2: then I can't wait to get to the lab. Maybe

261
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 2: that's the case. In fact, I'm kind of hoping that

262
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 2: he is working on new music because if he is,

263
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:44,199
Speaker 2: I know anything about Eminem, there's gonna be a banger

264
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 2: on the new album that's gonna be all about these

265
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 2: real housewives of the Potomac, And I absolutely cannot wait

266
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,559
Speaker 2: to see how petty he gets with it, because he's

267
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,559
Speaker 2: gonna burn him. They are gonna go to there. They

268
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 2: just caddy right, But Shady is clever. Shady will write

269
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 2: an entire opus around them in ways that confuse them.

270
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 2: It's entirely possible. He does an absolute slam track on

271
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 2: these women and they think it's somehow a compliment. I

272
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 2: could see it playing out exactly like that. However, I've

273
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 2: also seen him do some music that just goes right

274
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 2: for the throat. Either way, I'm kind of looking forward

275
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 2: to it. Huge part of me looking forward to to

276
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 2: a dis track and if it's good. Remember remember Kendrick

277
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 2: Lamar had the dis track on Drake that won all

278
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 2: the awards. One of the odds, he cuts a dis

279
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 2: track about the Real Housewives and this thing ends up

280
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 2: becoming a Grammy winner. God would that be great?

281
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 6: Do me also have a disk track against Machine Gun Kelly?

282
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 2: Yeah? I think you did. I think you're right. Yeah, yeah,

283
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 2: oh god, he would just well M's dis tracks. He

284
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 2: ripped into his mom on a number of those two.

285
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 2: He was just ripping her apart. Kim. I'll never forget

286
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 2: his mom's name was Kim because he was who.

287
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 6: But maybe he does get up early now because he's

288
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 6: about to be your grandfather.

289
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 7: Yeah maybe, but I'm not buying it. Yeah, I don't

290
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 7: think so. I don't think that's that happening. Again, I

291
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 7: don't know the guy. Maybe I'm totally wrong.

292
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe your maybe your explanation is perfectly reasonable.

293
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 6: He seems like a nice family man. He's got like

294
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 6: three daughters to adopted, I believe.

295
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

296
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 6: Cool, sweet he adopted his ex wife's daughter from another relationship.

297
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 6: That's a good guy.

298
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 2: Okay, I had no problems with that. That's great. But

299
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 2: I think he'll tell you that early on he loved

300
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 2: his daughter a lot, but he wasn't really there for

301
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 2: I mean, that's listen to a decent amount of eminem.

302
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 2: I think he kind of he kind of works through

303
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 2: some of those some of those faults through his music.

304
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 2: But then he also does some dis tracks and that's

305
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 2: what I'm looking forward to. All Right, enough of that,

306

318
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 2: Today is known as Blackout Wednesday or Drinksgiving. It's one

319
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 2: of the busiest bar nights of the year, and it

320
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 2: comes with, of course, the risks heavy drinking, d UIs

321
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 2: memory lapses, wrecked holiday plans, and we I do know

322
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 2: that HP is sepic up enforcement. We know that they do

323
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 2: this whenever there's a holiday weekend. And this will not

324
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 2: be the last time. You know darn well that as

325
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 2: we get closer to Christmas, there's gonna be TV stories. Heck,

326
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 2: I'll probably try to fill some time as well talking

327
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 2: about DUI checkpoints, CHP, enhanced to patrols, this kind of stuff.

328
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 2: It's gonna happen around Christmas, It's gonna happen around New

329
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 2: Year's These are these are stories you can count on

330
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 2: once we once we get to November, you can count

331
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,160
Speaker 2: on Person of the Year stories, Year in recap stories,

332
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 2: best films of the Year, Best music of the year,

333
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 2: Spotify playlists of the year, you talk about travel? What

334
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,160
Speaker 2: else am I missing here? Mark Dy checkpoints? These are

335
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:51,119
Speaker 2: all all of them, family issues, food recipes. These are

336
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 2: all things you're gonna see on TV, here, on radio, reading,

337
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 2: in your in your blogs, whatever it is, right, all

338
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,879
Speaker 2: of these things. These are the go to topics around

339
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 2: the holidays, all of them. So what'll be the last

340
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,920
Speaker 2: time you hear about this? But today is interesting because

341
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 2: it really kicks off what I'd like to think of

342
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 2: is alcohol season. Now, for some of us complete pros,

343
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 2: we go thank you. Alcohol season is year round. We

344
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 2: practice for this very occasion. But the thing is, if

345
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 2: you've been doing it in a while, you know not

346
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 2: to get behind the wheel right. Liquor sales tonight may

347
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 2: spike as much as one hundred and fifty six percent

348
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 2: above normal wednesdays, beer and cocktails jumping over sixty percent.

349
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 2: So people are going to the spirits. They like their beers,

350
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 2: they like their cocktails. That's going to go up, But

351
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 2: they're going to the liquors, and that is that is

352
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 2: key because a lot of people who don't normally drink liquor,

353
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 2: And based on what we're seeing is liquor is increasing

354
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 2: far more than beer and cock tales, which means not

355
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 2: normal Wednesday night liquor drinkers are doing it. And if

356
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 2: you're normally a cocktailer a beer drinker, and all of

357
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 2: a sudden you're gonna start doing shots, it may hit

358
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,120
Speaker 2: you a lot faster than you realize. All right, not

359
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 2: only that, but Mark, this is for you. Because I

360
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 2: work from my home student, I feel personally attacked already.

361
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 2: Oh you should. But this part is for you, Okay,

362
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 2: this is this is actually because of my concern for you,

363
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 2: because you're I consider you a friend. See, I'm pulling

364
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 2: out the nice throw you for a loop news to me.

365
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 2: Thank you. No, I think of you as a friend,

366
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 2: I see, yeah, because I convince you about anything. Uh,

367
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,479
Speaker 2: the risk of encounter and I would help you move

368
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 2: if you asked. And a drive to the airport. What

369
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:46,240
Speaker 2: are we at that level? Give it some thought? Go ahead, borderline,

370
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 2: All right, we're borderline. The risk of encountering a drunk

371
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 2: driver increases by about fifty five percent on this night

372
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 2: compared with the average. So your normal Wednesday driving home,

373
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 2: you may see some more drunks on the road when

374
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 2: you get out. What time you got out tonight midnight?

375
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I taking the side roads. It's amateur and

376
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 3: I just like Saint Patrick's day. You really, if you

377
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 3: are a complete pro, you don't want to be out

378
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 3: on a night like this.

379
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 2: Somehow we're one to one accusing ourselves as being complete

380
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 2: pros instead of the other person. Ooh that's great. Yeah, yeah,

381
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:20,120
Speaker 2: so you do the side roads. I'm always worried about

382
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 2: the side roads because I have in my mind that

383
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,680
Speaker 2: if somebody's buzzed, if they're drunk, they're not really in

384
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 2: the right mind at all. But if they're buzzed, and

385
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 2: as we all know, buzz driving is drunk driving in

386
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 2: there in my mind, if somebody's buzzed, they might be thinking,

387
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 2: I'm going to avoid potential DUI checkpoints. I'm going to

388
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 2: take side roads or surface streets. And so that's what

389
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 2: worries me about that, Like, am I safer on the

390
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 2: freeway because at least there's a lot of other people

391
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 2: out there, and the drunks aren't gonna want to you know,

392
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 2: they don't want to take they don't want to be

393
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 2: in a precarious position. They might be taking the side roads.

394
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 3: Well, the calculation is would you rather get hit a

395
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 3: thirty miles an hour or seventy miles in Yeah, that's.

396
00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,679
Speaker 2: A good point, and you can you can probably if

397
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:01,679
Speaker 2: you're on a freeway and you look around, you can

398
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 2: probably spot one hundred cars at once, and how many

399
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,120
Speaker 2: of them are drunks. Whereas if you're on a side road,

400
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,120
Speaker 2: you might see three cars, and your chance of identifying

401
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 2: the drunk driver in those three cars might be a

402
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 2: whole lot easier too.

403
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 3: I suppose I don't know what your experience is, but

404
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 3: when I go home after midnight, and you know, often

405
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 3: at one or later, I can see people weaving around

406
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 3: on the highway freeway and you know, you know to

407
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,679
Speaker 3: give them a wide berth, and that might be harder

408
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 3: on a side road.

409
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 2: That's true.

410
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 4: Do you have.

411
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 2: Do you have a problem? I have this problem right now.

412
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 2: It used to be if you saw somebody who was

413
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 2: kind of weaving a little bit, like when I first

414
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 2: started to learn to drive. But we always warned about

415
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 2: watching for drunk drivers. Obviously, they kept telling us, don't

416
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:43,920
Speaker 2: be a drunk driver, but then watch for drunk drivers.

417
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 2: And I always had trouble seeing a drunk driver unless

418
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 2: they were really riding the rail as some people, you

419
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 2: know what, riding the rail is riding for thank you

420
00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 2: riding the rails when you put your tire on the

421
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 2: yellow line and you go, if I'm on the yellow line,

422
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 2: that means I'm going straight. So they ride the rail okay,

423
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,640
Speaker 2: because otherwise they're worried the road is shifting in front

424
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,199
Speaker 2: of them. Right, their eyes are deceiving them. So if

425
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,239
Speaker 2: I can get my tire on that, if I can

426
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 2: ride the rail, then I'm okay. So, but I always

427
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 2: in trouble seeing the drunk drivers unless it was really obvious.

428
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,160
Speaker 2: Now I have problems. I can't tell if somebody's drunk

429
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 2: or if they're just texting. That's exactly it.

430
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, but it doesn't make any difference because you

431
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 3: don't want to be near them in either case, because

432
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 3: if they're clueless enough to be texting behind the wheel,

433
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 3: they're still dangerous.

434
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,679
Speaker 2: And then you get that special combination, and it happens

435
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 2: on nights like this where you get the person who's

436
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 2: drunk doesn't think they're they're that drunk, right, I'm probably okay.

437
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 2: I've only had a couple. I'm probably okay, right, And

438
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 2: then because they're probably okay, they're going to text people

439
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 2: to let them know they're on their way home while

440
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 2: they're driving. Right, that's the one where you've got somebody

441
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 2: who's pretty buzzed or drunk and texting. Oh god, please,

442
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 2: don't you.

443
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 3: That texting, having a phone call. Uh, screwing around with

444
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 3: the radio, leaving leaving a talk back for you.

445
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 6: Smoking a doube.

446
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 2: Oh that escalated quickly.

447
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 6: Oh, this is California, so you know people are getting

448
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:14,640
Speaker 6: high and then getting behind the wheel.

449
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:16,879
Speaker 2: That's illegal. So what does that have to do with California.

450
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:18,400
Speaker 2: It can happen anywhere, and you can.

451
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 6: But you can tell the Stones drivers because they drive really,

452
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 6: really slowly.

453
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 3: Your producers admitting she enjoys a little hot boxing.

454
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 2: Now what I do?

455
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 6: I cannot do that, as you.

456
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:30,919
Speaker 2: Can't roll a hot box.

457
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:31,919
Speaker 1: I don't do that.

458
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:35,359
Speaker 6: I do not do that. I'll get attention.

459
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 2: If I do.

460
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 6: I promise I don't do that.

461
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:40,639
Speaker 2: She seems like the kind who could get out of

462
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 2: a ticket. Don't you think we should try to figure

463
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:49,400
Speaker 2: stop it? We should do it over under on how

464
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 2: long before Nikki gets deported? Oh?

465
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 6: Gosh, okay, on what grounds though?

466
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 2: Any grounds? Yeah?

467
00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 6: Uh, this is harassing a police officer.

468
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, boy, we could be really onto something here. Are

469
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:07,879
Speaker 2: we allowed to put a thumb on the scale?

470
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 6: No?

471
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 2: Uh ooh boy, depends on how much he upsets you

472
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,479
Speaker 2: one night. I see, yeah, I would say no, not

473
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:16,880
Speaker 2: allowed to put a thumb on the stade. This has

474
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 2: to be all of her own doing.

475
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 6: I can get myself into trouble very easily.

476
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,919
Speaker 2: Right, I can see you getting pulled over. No office,

477
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 2: Isn't there anything I can do about that?

478
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 6: You get pulled over. I got pulled over two weeks ago,

479
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 6: and I have a ticket.

480
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 2: Oh it didn't work.

481
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 6: I crossed the line apparently.

482
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 2: I bet you did multiple lines.

483
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 6: Crossing lines yet?

484
00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 2: Uh oh boy? Oh baby? All right. You think you

485
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 2: know about tough decisions, right, Try making a tough decision

486
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 2: when your body is shutting down, with the air is

487
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 2: thinning and now you've got to go potty. The most

488
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 2: extreme decisions. Where to go next? Chris, maryl I AM

502
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 2: Happy Thanksgiving. George northon Radio Legend, Just get tingles whenever

503
00:25:58,440 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 2: get a chance to talk to Georgia, I just don't

504
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 2: want to upset him. I don't want to say something

505
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 2: dumb that makes him go, why don't I.

506
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 3: Have to talk to this moron? Yeah, you don't feel

507
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:07,959
Speaker 3: like that ship's kind of sailed?

508
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, yes, okay, but I don't want to

509
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 2: make it worse because maybe I'm maybe I'm mistaken and

510
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 2: he doesn't think I have a complete boob. But you know,

511
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 2: I don't want to I don't want to remove all doubt,

512
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:26,159
Speaker 2: you know. So I get nervous when I talk to

513
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 2: George Norri. I think a lot of people fanboy out

514
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:32,199
Speaker 2: on George I do. I do not, And I think

515
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 2: a lot of people do, because you know, he does

516
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 2: a lot of the stuff that's a little a little

517
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 2: bit of the woo woo. But I just think he's

518
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 2: an incredible broadcast talent. I mean, he's doing it for

519
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 2: so long and he just does it. He's just locked in,

520
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 2: and I just think he's got the perfect night show.

521
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 2: He just understands his audience, he understands his day part,

522
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 2: he understands so many of the things that take years

523
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 2: to master, and he just he gets it. He knows

524
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 2: what his lane is, and he just he does it

525
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 2: better than anybody. I I have so much respect, so

526
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:06,199
Speaker 2: much respect.

527
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,959
Speaker 3: I think we're overdue for a lunch with George. This

528
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 3: has been promised for literally years now.

529
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 2: Oh is that right?

530
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, George? If you're listening, you're picking up the tab.

531
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 2: What do we get with George? Does he take us?

532
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 2: Is it gonna be something normal or is he gonna

533
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 2: take us something He's like, guys, I've got this great

534
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 2: alien cafe, right, will be fantastic. We'll have our hopes

535
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 2: all built up and then we'll just greet with pinks.

536
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,879
Speaker 2: That's fine with me too, Yea, do some we do

537
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 2: some selfies there they'd be all right, well we could

538
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 2: call it. Oh you know what if we did we

539
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,400
Speaker 2: go to Pinks and then uh we could we could

540
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 2: get like a George Nori special, like the Probe Dog. Yeah,

541
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 2: they'll name a hot dog after him. That would be great,

542
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 2: It would be amazing. I love that. I was reading

543
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:57,640
Speaker 2: up on this story about a seventeen year old climber

544
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,159
Speaker 2: on Mount Everest. She's a fan fascinating girl and she

545
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 2: was tiktoking it, so she became a bit of a celebrity.

546
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 2: People Magazine actually was reporting on her, and Bianka Adler

547
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,400
Speaker 2: is her name, and she's actually been climbing. Her parents

548
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,360
Speaker 2: are climbers, which is how she got started so young,

549
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 2: and she's been climbing and setting records for being the

550
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 2: youngest female to climb different peaks around the world. So

551
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 2: obviously she got money. But she tried to climb Everest

552
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 2: and she was climbing with her father, who again is

553
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 2: another climber and has climbed Everest in the past. And

554
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,160
Speaker 2: I'm just reading about this and how you go from

555
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 2: base camp to Camp one, to Camp two to Camp

556
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 2: three and or maybe it's space camp Camp two, three,

557
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 2: whatever it is, and then you kind of up and

558
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 2: down to acclimate your body, because you can't be over

559
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 2: a certain altitude for too long or else it really

560
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 2: messes with you. So you actually have to go up

561
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 2: for a little while, come back down. Go up, stay

562
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 2: a little longer, come back down. Go up, stay a

563
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 2: little bit longer, come back down. And I didn't realize that. See,

564
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,960
Speaker 2: I thought that all these climbers, they basically did a

565
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 2: lot of exercising, They did a lot of deeping. Probably

566
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 2: have I don't know, those weird cans of O two

567
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 2: you can buy it lows, you know, in their backpacks

568
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 2: or something. I didn't realize that. You mean people buy

569
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 2: those for things other than hangovers? Dude, what do they?

570
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,960
Speaker 2: What else? I mean? I see those and I go,

571
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 2: who buys these things? It's that's got to be it? Right, Well,

572
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 2: now you know it's got to be. There's no other

573
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 2: reason to buy that.

574
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 3: But also you've really added a bonus to something that

575
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 3: sounds laborious and life threatening. You have to acclimate yourself

576
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 3: to it in addition to all that, yeah, and the

577
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 3: extreme cost of it.

578
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 2: So get this. She is doing this stuff and her

579
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 2: dad gets sick, not like death, leel or anything, but

580
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 2: he falls sick. But she's seventeen. There's a couple of sherpas.

581
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 2: She's done other claims before, and they're basically like, hey,

582
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 2: go on, you can do this, you can hit the summit.

583
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 2: So she said she did, like all this training, and

584
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 2: she's tiktoking the thing and a storm sets in and

585
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 2: so she's she's getting close. She's above eight thousand meters.

586
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 2: You can't survive very long above eight thousand meters. Your

587
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 2: body just won't do. Even if you've aclimated. You're not

588
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 2: acclimating enough unless I guess you're a sure. But shirper's

589
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 2: are amazing. And as she goes up there, she gets

590
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 2: hit by the cold, she gets hit by the weather.

591
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 2: She's four hundred meters shy of the summit of Mount Everest,

592
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 2: and they had to make the decision to turn around

593
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 2: and come back.

594
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 3: Down after the shirp has pressured her into this. You've

595
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 3: you've had how many people have had shirpa pressure? Nobody

596
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,479
Speaker 3: that's she's the only one. Other seventeen year olds is like,

597
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 3: who are you going to go to.

598
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 2: The dance with? But in this case, she's got shirpas

599
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 2: that are like, you can do it, Yeah, try to do.

600
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 2: Your free will is gone. It's gone, totally gone. In

601
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 2: an interview though, we got a little bit of insight,

602
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 2: So if you're unfamiliar, the climbers have been going up

603
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 2: and down on Everest for what long? Almost was it

604
00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 2: nineteen thirty two, I think was the first one to summit,

605
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 2: if I if I'm not mistaken. So what I think

606
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 2: is really fascinating is that you may have heard the

607
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 2: stories that there are dead bodies marking the trail up

608
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 2: and down Everest, and that is because people will, you know,

609
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 2: die and nobody's going to bring them down, like they're

610
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 2: having enough trouble getting them their own selves down without

611
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 2: ending up next to the corpse that's already there. So

612
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 2: these corpses end up freezing pretty quickly and then they

613
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 2: just stay there. So if you've ever you know, banged this,

614
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 2: you're going to find this, like this trail of corpses

615
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 2: up and down Everest. It's really interesting. But also what

616
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 2: happens is they get going and they start throwing trash out.

617
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 2: So evidently the trails up and down Everest are littered

618
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 2: with litter, covered with trash and human excrement. So there's

619
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 2: new rules. If you want to sum at everest, you

620
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 2: have to go up and when you come back down,

621
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 2: you have to come down with about eighteen pounds of

622
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 2: trash to prove that you've brought your trash back with you.

623
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 2: That includes your poopolo and peepee.

624
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 3: Doesn't anybody just watch two be anymore? Can you just

625
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 3: watch some TV? Why would you do that when you've

626
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:11,680
Speaker 3: got three to b in the hotel?

627
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 2: Why would you? Why would you try to climb them out?

628
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 2: And I don't understand it. No, I guess they actually

629
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 2: make They make bags. And then I think to myself,

630
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 2: do you keep the bag thought or do you keep

631
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 2: that on the outside and just let it freeze up?

632
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 3: Because yeah, I wouldn't do that for a dog. I

633
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 3: wouldn't do it for my grandmother. You think I'm gonna

634
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 3: get it myself.

635
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 2: I'm not carrying around a bag of my own number two,

636
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,640
Speaker 2: thank you. But you have to do it. That's the rules.

637
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 3: So is it like a like a sandwich bag or

638
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 3: a hefty bag?

639
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 2: They didn't go into detail on it. I might have

640
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 2: to do. We might have to do a part two

641
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 2: on this, so there could be a sequel to the

642
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 2: wag bag. They call us a waste bag. Well, people

643
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 2: need to know this. I think they do. I think

644
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 2: this is I think we've edified people tonight beyond their

645
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 2: own expectations. I have a have a blessed and safe

646
