Speaker 1: Kutbooms.
Speaker 2: If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants
Speaker 2: of the old Republic, a soul fashion of fairness. He
Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow, the Clearinghouse of
Speaker 2: Hot takes break free for something special. The Fifth Hour
Speaker 2: with Ben Mahler starts.
Speaker 3: Right now in the air eywhere the fifth Hour with me,
Speaker 3: Ben Mahlor and Danny g Radio Happy NFL Sunday.
Speaker 1: This is your pre pre pre game show, right is
Speaker 1: that we're calling us standing the pre pre pre pregame show.
Speaker 4: It's the pre game to the pre game.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Like you get up early, listen to the
Speaker 1: show or listen to it whenever you want, and then
Speaker 1: watch football all day long. Now we will get to
Speaker 1: the mailbag in a minute, which is the star of
Speaker 1: the show. On our final fifth Hour for the month
Speaker 1: of September. Here as this week we flip over to October.
Speaker 1: This is the last NFL weekend in September, and I
Speaker 1: should be God willing, I will be at the Chiefs
Speaker 1: Charger game later today at SOFI stadium in La La Land,
Speaker 1: and then I'll be watching all the other games on
Speaker 1: my computer and my phone and all that fussing around
Speaker 1: with that.
Speaker 5: Is there any way possible that you can make both
Speaker 5: teams lose?
Speaker 1: Well, you would want to, that's a good question. You're
Speaker 1: probably not going to catch the Chiefs at one and two.
Speaker 5: But the Chargers, Yeah, the Chargers are not exactly a
Speaker 5: Jugger not. Yeah, they obviously they obviously have a better
Speaker 5: coach now, but the talent level is just okay on
Speaker 5: their team.
Speaker 1: And they have injuries are starting to pile up for
Speaker 1: the Chargers. So yeah, you probably want You assume the
Speaker 1: Chiefs are going to win the division, so you want
Speaker 1: them to win, and then as long as the Raiders
Speaker 1: take care of business against the Browns, then they'll get
Speaker 1: back to five hundred. Boy, they blew such a chance
Speaker 1: last week.
Speaker 4: Danny, I know, I know.
Speaker 5: We called it though, and I was talking about how
Speaker 5: they play down to the competition, and you mentioned, coming
Speaker 5: off that really big win against the Ravens that they
Speaker 5: might come out flat, and unfortunately they listen to the podcast.
Speaker 1: It was terrible and winnable game. Today they play the
Speaker 1: Broncos in Denver, next week. But the Broncos are not invincible.
Speaker 1: They're not particularly a good team with bo Nicks, I
Speaker 1: don't think, although I like them today with the points
Speaker 1: if you watch the TV show. But these are these
Speaker 1: are golden opportunities, Like later on you got the two
Speaker 1: games with the Chiefs. You're gonna have to play Tampa,
Speaker 1: which is a fringe playoff team, to play the Falcons,
Speaker 1: which is going to be a playoff contender, So you
Speaker 1: gotta win these games.
Speaker 5: And yeah, I mean I knew how bad Max Crosby
Speaker 5: was hurt when I watched him try to come off
Speaker 5: the line.
Speaker 4: There was like no explosion.
Speaker 5: He was kind of standing around, maybe waiting for an
Speaker 5: opening to get into the quarterback, which wasn't happening because
Speaker 5: that O line suddenly woke up and the whole the
Speaker 5: whole team actually behind Andy Dalton looked like a playoff
Speaker 5: team all.
Speaker 4: Of a sudden.
Speaker 5: So I was just like most Raider fans, like why
Speaker 5: why did teams have to wake up against us?
Speaker 4: It happened so much in my lifetime.
Speaker 1: Well, Carolina looked like a real It looked good.
Speaker 5: See those darts. This is going to be a long day.
Speaker 5: And then Minshew came back with that fifty four yard
Speaker 5: dime of his own and they score a touchdown even
Speaker 5: at up seven to seven, and I was like, all right, well,
Speaker 5: it'll be a dog fight. And the defense played down
Speaker 5: to the level of the offense, which wasn't clicking after
Speaker 5: that touchdown and no run game. The O line is
Speaker 5: in tatters right now because of injuries, and they're trying
Speaker 5: to work some rookies in and looks like that DJ
Speaker 5: Glaze guy and the Powers Johnson dude are both really good,
Speaker 5: but their rookies. The Raiders are going to have to
Speaker 5: have a patched up O line try to get some
Speaker 5: remnants of a run game going.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they have no running game.
Speaker 4: No run game whatsoever.
Speaker 5: And that Luke Keetzi guy who sucked in Chicago as
Speaker 5: an OC is now the OC of the Raiders. On
Speaker 5: first and second down, he was just running the ball
Speaker 5: up the middle for zero yards. It's just super frustrating.
Speaker 5: You have those weapons on that offense and that's the
Speaker 5: play calling.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hello, it's not working. You might want to do
Speaker 1: something else before I forget. I wanted to mention this yesterday.
Speaker 1: A couple of things from yesterday. We'll get to the mailbag.
Speaker 1: But last Sunday, I was at the Ram forty nine
Speaker 1: er game at so Far.
Speaker 4: Brought him some luck.
Speaker 1: Yeah, although I picked the forty nine ers on the
Speaker 1: TV show, But yeah I didn't. I didn't think the
Speaker 1: Rams had any chance. I was literally stunt. I was
Speaker 1: there and I was like, it was forty yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: On the podcast you said you could probably leave at halftime.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought again would be over. And the forty
Speaker 1: nine ers came out. They scored early. They looked like
Speaker 1: the same old forty nine ers marching down the field.
Speaker 1: I think they had I think it was like fourteen
Speaker 1: early points for the Niners, and I'm like, all right,
Speaker 1: this is to be a blowout. And I still don't
Speaker 1: quite understand how the Rams won that game without several
Speaker 1: offensive linemen, their top two receivers, several defensive starters who
Speaker 1: didn't play. That is a stunner of stunners based on
Speaker 1: what should have happened and what actually happened. That's why
Speaker 1: they play the games, Danny. I heard that somewhere along
Speaker 1: the way, but on my way to the game, I
Speaker 1: had parking in the red lot at so Far, so
Speaker 1: it's general parking. Yeah, I followed the ways traffic. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you know, I'm just whatever it says. It said
Speaker 1: red parking lot. So I followed. So I got there
Speaker 1: very early to get there to watch the other games.
Speaker 1: So it's it's you know, it's early in the morning,
Speaker 1: several hours before the game. But there's already a few
Speaker 1: cars there. So I get up to the gate, following
Speaker 1: the directions, and the guy at the gates is, well,
Speaker 1: you're in the wrong lane. I said, okay. He says,
Speaker 1: so you're gonna have to make a U turn. You're
Speaker 1: gonna have to go around all these cars and then
Speaker 1: make a right and then go down several entrances and
Speaker 1: then go in the other entrance. So say, okay, but
Speaker 1: I if you move that orange cone, which is to
Speaker 1: my right, I can go right there and then I'm
Speaker 1: where I need to be. He said, yeah, but I'm
Speaker 1: not allowed to do that. I said, but it's literally
Speaker 1: right there. It'll take you one second. It's going to
Speaker 1: cost me thirty minutes of my life and it'll take
Speaker 1: you one second. And who's going to complain. We're just
Speaker 1: not allowed to touch the cone, sir. We can't touch
Speaker 1: the cones. Oh come on, well, I said, well, what
Speaker 1: if I get out of the car. What if I
Speaker 1: I'm the one doing it. I said, well, you're not
Speaker 1: allowed to do that either. You have to stay in
Speaker 1: your car. The cars around here, I said, well, there's
Speaker 1: not many cars. It'll take one second. I promise, I'll
Speaker 1: put the cone back. And now these guys were complete douchebags,
Speaker 1: and so I had to get out of the parking lot.
Speaker 1: You know, it's like they were following their superiors orders,
Speaker 1: like the Nuremberg Defense or something like that. I just
Speaker 1: so annoying. I say, God forbid you move, Like, what's
Speaker 1: gonna happen, Danny? If they moved the cone? Is that
Speaker 1: gonna everything's going to fall apart? A house of cards?
Speaker 1: Is that what's going to happen?
Speaker 5: They're like some bouncers that we've fed to deal with
Speaker 5: when we were younger.
Speaker 4: Just stop it.
Speaker 5: I'm sure you wanted to take that guy's rapid radio
Speaker 5: and shove it up his ass.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was really annoying. Eventually I got where I
Speaker 1: needed to go, but it did take about half an
Speaker 1: hour of my time, and it literally would have been
Speaker 1: less than a minute, maybe thirty seconds, and the guy
Speaker 1: could have moved the cone. I would have gone through,
Speaker 1: I would have been where I needed to go, and
Speaker 1: that put me in a bad mood. Then after the
Speaker 1: Ram game, I was like, well, I lost the bet,
Speaker 1: but I was happy the Rams won because at least
Speaker 1: they have a chance a decent season this year. Beating
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers is a big win for them.
Speaker 4: Please tell me you found that guy and ran over
Speaker 4: his cone.
Speaker 1: Well, I wanted to, but I'm leaving Sofi Stadium and
Speaker 1: it's in the hood in Inglewood. So rategy always is
Speaker 1: to avoid where the traffic is. So I go into
Speaker 1: the heart of Englewood. I don't even know where I'm going.
Speaker 1: I just go away from the traffic when I leave
Speaker 1: Sofi State. Yeah, I'm like, I'll figure out. I'll just
Speaker 1: turn on the traffic app. I'll go as far as
Speaker 1: I can go, and then I'll.
Speaker 5: Turn on the app and it'll take you some magical
Speaker 5: alternative route alternate route exactly.
Speaker 1: So I'm doing that and I'm cruising down. I don't
Speaker 1: even know where I am. I'm on French Shaw Boulevard
Speaker 1: in LA and on my way driving through, I saw
Speaker 1: a couple of things that can only see on Cretenshaw
Speaker 1: frendshow Boulevard. The first was a black gentleman who was
Speaker 1: dressed as a clown. He was panhandling. While juggling in
Speaker 1: between green lights, he would run out hand to God, like,
Speaker 1: what was that old Fox show with the Wayan.
Speaker 4: Brothers, Uh, you know, oh yeah in living color?
Speaker 1: Yeah. He was like, it wasn't one of the Wayan brothers,
Speaker 1: like a clown on the show. If I remember, Maybe
Speaker 1: I'm making that up. I don't know.
Speaker 4: No, no, you're right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like it was like a crappy clown costume.
Speaker 1: The guy probably found a goodwill and he's standing there
Speaker 1: with you know, he had the red nose on the
Speaker 1: funny shoes and he's jruggling, and then he times it
Speaker 1: perfectly when the signals about to change, and then he
Speaker 1: takes a bow and takes his clown hat off and
Speaker 1: asks for money.
Speaker 4: It was nice man. At least he's working for tips.
Speaker 1: No, no, I'm not ripping the guy.
Speaker 5: I just yeah, no, I know, I'm saying in general,
Speaker 5: though we see panhandlers and they're not doing anything to
Speaker 5: entertain us.
Speaker 1: It was I wish I had recorded it with my phone.
Speaker 1: So then I keep going down Crenshaw, I get the
Speaker 1: intersection of Crenshaw and Adams and about a block before that.
Speaker 4: Oh boy, that's a great area.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, wonderful part of LA. So there's a homeless
Speaker 1: encampment to my right. I'm driving down Crenshaw right right
Speaker 1: near Adams, and hand to God, Danny, I'm not making
Speaker 1: this up. I thought this is I mean, this is
Speaker 1: next level. So there's a couple of tents. It's like
Speaker 1: a small commune of homeless people. And there was a
Speaker 1: ten foot regulation basketball hoop that was in the middle
Speaker 1: of this homeless encampment that was on the side of
Speaker 1: Crenshaw Boulevard. And there was an older dude who was
Speaker 1: playing hoops and were shooting like he was Steph Curry.
Speaker 1: He had pants on, his shirt off. And I have
Speaker 1: so many questions about this, like where did they find it,
Speaker 1: how did they get it there? How is that allowed?
Speaker 1: I mean, don't people have to, you know, drive in
Speaker 1: that part of the street. It's just it was wild.
Speaker 5: If you wanted to pull over and play a pickup game,
Speaker 5: was that possible?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I could I play a game of pag or
Speaker 1: horse or something like that. What you've been down for that,
Speaker 1: you know?
Speaker 6: It was.
Speaker 1: It was wild. It really was next level. But eventually
Speaker 1: I made it. Actually, you went back to the studio
Speaker 1: and got ready for the show at the mother Ship.
Speaker 5: So I was there, Boy, I was there all day.
Speaker 5: Did it turn out being a faster way out of Inglewood?
Speaker 1: Well, I'll never know. In my head, it was faster. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's really all that matters, you know, that's all that matters.
Speaker 4: It definitely was a more entertaining drive.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I was for entertainment value. I think I'll
Speaker 1: be doing that every time I go to Sofi Stadium.
Speaker 1: It is much more entertaining than just going to the
Speaker 1: four or five freeway.
Speaker 5: And this time, though, you'll have your gym bag ready
Speaker 5: with your basketball.
Speaker 1: My basketball shoes. Just get one on one. All right,
Speaker 1: Let's get to the mail bag. The mail bag.
Speaker 6: It's the bag, this mail bag, all.
Speaker 1: Right, thank you, ohio al. These are actual questions by
Speaker 1: actual fans of the show that have sent me an
Speaker 1: email and Danny an email. Real fifth Hour at gmail
Speaker 1: dot com. All letters, no numbers. It's real fifth Hour
Speaker 1: at gmail dot com. My first one is jak jk
Speaker 1: is from somewhere in South Carolina. He says, ben I
Speaker 1: heard we heard a new voice on your show. This week,
Speaker 1: Eddie was away, Martin Weiss was on the show. How
Speaker 1: was it breaking in another new update anchor? All Right,
Speaker 1: first of all, he's not new, right, he's just new
Speaker 1: on our show. How long has Martin been at Fox Sports.
Speaker 4: Rad He's been Yeah, probably three years.
Speaker 1: Has it been three years?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 5: I think so because he was doing a weekend show
Speaker 5: back when I was producing some weekend shows.
Speaker 4: That was three years ago.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, I didn't realize.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, he's a co He was a part time
Speaker 5: he still is a part time co host on the weekends.
Speaker 5: He has a Saturday show with VJ.
Speaker 4: Husky who Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So he was in there. And to answer your question, JKA,
Speaker 1: it's fine. Unlike a lot of the guys that step
Speaker 1: in that chair and they think it's open mic night
Speaker 1: at chuckles a comedy call. Martin was professional job. He
Speaker 1: didn't try to take over the show. And so, yeah,
Speaker 1: I have no no complaints. He seemed like he was
Speaker 1: actually happy.
Speaker 6: To be there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, No, he's a he's yeah, he's a nice dude.
Speaker 1: Some of the people that fill in Danny, oh my god,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna work over Oh boy, it's so bad. They complained,
Speaker 1: and he was. He seemed happy.
Speaker 4: You know, he's any hustles.
Speaker 5: He started doing some updates so that he can make
Speaker 5: some extra money and be on the network a little
Speaker 5: bit more. Yeah, dudes like that, they're going to be
Speaker 5: happy to have the work, all.
Speaker 1: Right, Mike in h He did not say parts unknown.
Speaker 1: He says, Hey, Ben and Danny, I heard a caller
Speaker 1: on your show, Ben this week who say that you
Speaker 1: who said you've gone soft on Brian Finley because you
Speaker 1: went to his wedding. Danny, do you agree with that?
Speaker 1: And if you've heard the show and Ben, have you
Speaker 1: lost your edge?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 5: Is it true that you don't torture friendly as much
Speaker 5: on the air. That's something I'm not aware of.
Speaker 1: Well, I what I noticed is when he's there, he
Speaker 1: makes it all about him. So if I spend my
Speaker 1: time back, that's what he wants because it's all about him.
Speaker 4: Got you. So it's more avoidance than it is you
Speaker 4: being soft.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's an editorial decision. I'm like, well, I really
Speaker 1: I don't want to spend all of the show just
Speaker 1: doing this, and so I limit it. But I don't
Speaker 1: think I've lost my edge. It's not going to I
Speaker 1: went to his wedding, and it's not that at all.
Speaker 5: It's just no, because even in that story you were
Speaker 5: talking some smack about him.
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, exactly. So I'm surprised I ended up
Speaker 1: getting an invite to the event. I am so. Jack
Speaker 1: and Main writes and he says, Hey, Bendon, Danny, how
Speaker 1: many of these do you have lying around your homes?
Speaker 1: He says, Americans talking about hose Well, if you want.
Speaker 1: He says, Americans are holding on He sent me a
Speaker 1: news story here. Jack says, Americans are holding on to
Speaker 1: twenty seven billion dollars of wasted money in gift cards.
Speaker 4: What.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what ends up happening with me is we'll use
Speaker 1: the gift card and then there'll be a little money
Speaker 1: left on it, and then we'll forget about it.
Speaker 4: And that's what that industry is hoping.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and it happens all the time. Well, there's
Speaker 1: a barbecue restaurant that get gift cards at Costco, and
Speaker 1: we'll go there, we'll use the gift card and they'll
Speaker 1: be like maybe five or ten bucks left on it,
Speaker 1: and we'll forget about it and never never use that.
Speaker 5: I'm pretty good, I'm pretty good about using the gift
Speaker 5: card all the way through.
Speaker 4: But it takes a while.
Speaker 5: Like the second time I need to use the gift
Speaker 5: card for the balance, they'll be like a year in
Speaker 5: between the first time I used it. I had a
Speaker 5: Red Robin gift card. It was over a year for
Speaker 5: me to use the rest of the balance. But man,
Speaker 5: that sandwich hit when I finally used it.
Speaker 1: May main that's good. Yeah, yeah, I don't forget about it.
Speaker 1: I have a we have like a ziplock bag filled
Speaker 1: with gift cards, like but oh you know.
Speaker 4: We have a zip block bag that's filled with taco
Speaker 4: bell sauce.
Speaker 1: Well but see, uh uh. For years, over the holidays,
Speaker 1: people say, oh, here's a gift card Starbucks or some
Speaker 1: barbecue place or whatever. And so we'll just throw him
Speaker 1: in the bag. What's in the bag, and we you know,
Speaker 1: every once in a while we'll go in there and
Speaker 1: start pulling stuff out. It's like, all right, spin the wheel.
Speaker 1: It's like roulette, where we're gonna eat today? What's in
Speaker 1: the bag? You know that kind of thing. Yeah, all right,
Speaker 1: Reggie and Detroit writes, and he says, our guys is
Speaker 1: a couple of radio professionals. I wanted to know your opinion,
Speaker 1: I don't know for professionals, Reggie says, I want to
Speaker 1: know your opinion on the Alex Jones story. Uh. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so there's a story. I don't know if you saw Danny.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think this has been confirmed yet,
Speaker 1: but supposedly, Uh, he's going to be forced to dismayntle
Speaker 1: his his info Wars because of the one billion dollar
Speaker 1: debt that he has. I don't know, Regy, I don't
Speaker 1: know much about the story. Oh, the liquidating, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: thought he had tried to move everything to somebody else's name,
Speaker 1: so he didn't technically own that. I don't know if
Speaker 1: the judge is or the court figured that out. They
Speaker 1: probably did. It's kind of obvious. So yeah, I don't don't.
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how the laws are and all that stuff.
Speaker 1: I would think he's going to work somewhere, whether it's
Speaker 1: his place Info Wars, if that goes out of business,
Speaker 1: he'll still do something right. I would think he's in
Speaker 1: the meeting.
Speaker 5: I'm seeing here that a US bankruptcy judge in Houston
Speaker 5: this past Tuesday said that he will approve the auctions
Speaker 5: that start in November.
Speaker 1: Oh, really sitting an auction off all the stuff.
Speaker 4: And yeah, that's what this article saying.
Speaker 1: Wow, all right, Yeah, I don't know much much about it.
Speaker 1: I think they're still around for now though, right, they're
Speaker 1: still operating.
Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe maybe he could find a way to circumvent
Speaker 5: this from happening.
Speaker 4: We will find out.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Fred the Scientist writes in from New Mexican,
Speaker 1: New Mexico. He says, good morning, Ben and Danny saw
Speaker 1: this story. I want to know your perspective on it.
Speaker 1: And he then points out that apparently the surface of Mars,
Speaker 1: part of it, appears to be covered in what they
Speaker 1: think is rocket fuel.
Speaker 4: Oh.
Speaker 5: I thought you were going to say chocolate. That would
Speaker 5: be awesome, I know, especially for my family, the garat Delli's.
Speaker 1: Oh, that'd be awesome.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I would have went up there and started mining the planet.
Speaker 1: So Fred the Scientist, Yeah, I don't. I'm I'm not
Speaker 1: a scientist. This is the first I've heard of it.
Speaker 1: But I would imagine everything that's here on Earth is
Speaker 1: probably on all the other planets, right, because we're made
Speaker 1: up of space dust, and we're made up a crap
Speaker 1: that supposedly blew up. And if you believe what I
Speaker 1: read when I was a kid, and everything kind of
Speaker 1: threw together and there was the Big Bang or some
Speaker 1: kind of massive event, and that's how we ended up
Speaker 1: where we are. And who knows, maybe we're all living
Speaker 1: in a simulation. I don't know, but yeah, I also Fred,
Speaker 1: I did read a story and for you Danny as well,
Speaker 1: that they said that all of the the things we use,
Speaker 1: you know, they do a lot of slave labor to
Speaker 1: make our cell phones and our computers and all that
Speaker 1: the materials in there. They have to go to certain
Speaker 1: parts and dig deep into the earth to get those things.
Speaker 1: That a lot of that stuff they can get on Mars,
Speaker 1: and they think, you know, it might be available there
Speaker 1: and so they wouldn't have to take apart this plan.
Speaker 1: But the problem is getting there and then getting this
Speaker 1: stuff back safely is a problem. So anyway, Dan in
Speaker 1: Albuquerque on the mailbag says, Hey, Ben and Danny, I
Speaker 1: want to know how many how many hours a day
Speaker 1: do you gentlemen spend getting ready for your respective shows.
Speaker 5: Well, okay, I don't think. I don't think that process
Speaker 5: ever stops. That's one thing people don't realize about radio
Speaker 5: is we are searching through the Internet and different websites
Speaker 5: and checking our phones pretty much NonStop.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're always futzing around trying to find something that
Speaker 1: would be good talk radio, right, Danny, it's all about
Speaker 1: good talk radio.
Speaker 5: And yeah, yeah, we don't want to you don't want
Speaker 5: to miss anything because things will date themselves very quickly
Speaker 5: most of the time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of what we do has a very
Speaker 1: short shelf life. Unfortunately it's not long form timeless like
Speaker 1: uh PI a podcast where Joe Rogan interviews an author.
Speaker 1: M Well, that probably will have a pretty long shelf
Speaker 1: life if they're just talking about a book. But a
Speaker 1: radio show, we're talking about whatever's going on that day, right,
Speaker 1: Play the hits, mom, Man, play the hits. It's all
Speaker 1: about what's going on right now.
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 5: And if, for instance, Justin Jefferson comes out with a
Speaker 5: quote about a defensive back that was talking shit and
Speaker 5: he says he's just going to do his thing and
Speaker 5: dance the gritty all over this guy, you know, we
Speaker 5: need to talk about that right as pretty much as
Speaker 5: it's happening, because he's talking about his matchup that's happening today.
Speaker 5: We couldn't get on the air Monday and say, oh,
Speaker 5: see that story last Thursday. Dang, nobody wants to hear
Speaker 5: old shit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no, it's true. You only have about twenty
Speaker 1: four hours, maybe not even that long, depending on what
Speaker 1: the story is, and it's just it's over.
Speaker 5: Yeah, once in a while, it doesn't matter if we
Speaker 5: do it on the CNR show Monday or we do
Speaker 5: it on Friday, because it's a story where it could
Speaker 5: be on whatever day you want it to be on.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Those are wonderful, but they're usually softer stories, like
Speaker 1: kicker stories type things, right, Danny, they're not meating potato
Speaker 1: stuff you got to get to right away, or we
Speaker 1: say meating potatoes like breaking down a quote from Justin
Speaker 1: Jefferson is meeting potatoes. But in our world, it is
Speaker 1: in our little world, our little bubble that we live in,
Speaker 1: it is absolutely meat and potatoes. It is Mo from
Speaker 1: Ohio Rights and he says, hey, Ben, is there anything
Speaker 1: new on the next malth of Meet and Read you
Speaker 1: have been teasing on your podcast? Well, Moe, and I
Speaker 1: know JT the wingman, who I assume, I don't assume anything,
Speaker 1: but he's been to the last three, so he might
Speaker 1: show up to that one now, there is something in

Speaker 1: the way, for the show, I understand you had to

Speaker 4: People don't tune in for the music exactly exactly.
Speaker 1: That's my thing wrong again, right to find I went
Speaker 1: through all of the Ben songs.
Speaker 5: And so this is going to be your standard music
Speaker 5: as you get set. Yeah, yeah, okay.
