<v Speaker 3>this the first podcast of February twenty twenty five. We've

0:00:51.560 --> 0:00:55.920
<v Speaker 3>crossed over the rubicon here as it's now the new month.

0:00:55.960 --> 0:00:59.480
<v Speaker 3>We celebrate Car Insurance Day by does anyone like car

0:00:59.480 --> 0:01:01.880
<v Speaker 3>insurance or any insurance for that matter. I used to

0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:05.280
<v Speaker 3>think insurance, Danny, I thought there was a point, well,

0:01:05.480 --> 0:01:09.040
<v Speaker 3>assurance is great, and then as an adult, the times

0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:12.120
<v Speaker 3>that I've needed insurance and they fought me on everything

0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:13.959
<v Speaker 3>f insurance.

0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:15.280
<v Speaker 1>That's my new position on it.

0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:17.440
<v Speaker 3>I know you need it supposedly, but when you actually

0:01:17.480 --> 0:01:20.360
<v Speaker 3>need it, my experiences, they try to screw you over

0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:21.520
<v Speaker 3>every chance they get.

0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:24.880
<v Speaker 4>They need to rename that Nova Silene Day.

0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:27.840
<v Speaker 1>Car Insurance. Here's a fun fact.

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:29.920
<v Speaker 3>You're ready for an early fun fact in the pod

0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:34.440
<v Speaker 3>car insurance has been around since the first car was

0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:38.240
<v Speaker 3>invented by Carl Benz in eighteen eighty six, so they

0:01:38.280 --> 0:01:44.120
<v Speaker 3>have been efing people over since eighteen eighty six. However, however,

0:01:44.400 --> 0:01:49.920
<v Speaker 3>they claim it was the US early US forefather, Benjamin Franklin,

0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:54.600
<v Speaker 3>the founding father of the United States, and he kicked

0:01:54.600 --> 0:01:57.040
<v Speaker 3>off the initiative, so we can man, I like Ben

0:01:57.080 --> 0:02:02.000
<v Speaker 3>Franklin's name, but we can blame him for the insurance.

0:02:02.080 --> 0:02:08.120
<v Speaker 3>In seventeen fifty one, they became the first his operation

0:02:08.200 --> 0:02:11.840
<v Speaker 3>became the first within the American colonies to offer fire insurance.

0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:16.160
<v Speaker 1>So wow, people have been ft over how many generations?

0:02:16.280 --> 0:02:17.560
<v Speaker 1>Is that? My God?

0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:21.880
<v Speaker 3>Anyway, so celebrate appropriately National Car Insurance.

0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:25.360
<v Speaker 1>I got in a wreck. I think it was last year.

0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:27.000
<v Speaker 3>I was coming back from a funeral and I got

0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:31.760
<v Speaker 3>rear ended on the five Freeway near downtown. And it

0:02:31.880 --> 0:02:33.959
<v Speaker 3>was clearly not my fault, you know yet rear ended.

0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:37.200
<v Speaker 3>Whoever hits you, it's their fault, and it didn't matter,

0:02:37.240 --> 0:02:38.040
<v Speaker 3>and it took forever to.

0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:38.480
<v Speaker 4>Get the money.

0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:39.680
<v Speaker 1>It was just ridiculous.

0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:43.120
<v Speaker 5>So yeah, my favorite part of car insurance. When you

0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:46.559
<v Speaker 5>total a car, they give you half of its value.

0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:49.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's another good one.

0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:49.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:51.480
<v Speaker 3>And I can't tell you how many times I've got

0:02:51.560 --> 0:02:53.640
<v Speaker 3>an email over the last twenty years from people who

0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:57.440
<v Speaker 3>are sick in the hospital and they have medical insurance.

0:02:57.440 --> 0:02:59.919
<v Speaker 3>They paid their medical insurance their entire life, they were healthy,

0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:02.960
<v Speaker 3>they get sick as they get older, and that they

0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:06.880
<v Speaker 3>call you on everything like every procedure like do you

0:03:06.960 --> 0:03:09.320
<v Speaker 3>really need that? We don't think you need that. And

0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:12.440
<v Speaker 3>I was like, oh god, but this is car insurance,

0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:13.600
<v Speaker 3>that's medical insurance.

0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:18.240
<v Speaker 1>And I'm a doctor, rant on and on and on.

0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:23.120
<v Speaker 1>But you are not in your normal abode.

0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:25.280

<v Speaker 5>On this Saturday morning, sitting inside the luxurious New York

<v Speaker 1>Have you have you ever seen those I don't know which.

0:03:56.280 --> 0:03:59.440
<v Speaker 3>I've seen tourists over the years take photos and it

0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:02.160
<v Speaker 3>seemed like and I couldn't really understand because they're speaking

0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:04.840
<v Speaker 3>different languages, like they thought that was the actual Lady

0:04:04.840 --> 0:04:07.520
<v Speaker 3>Liberty that had been Like I think they thought it

0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:10.520
<v Speaker 3>had been moved to the Las Vegas Strip like they

0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:12.560
<v Speaker 3>just I don't know. They were taking photos with it,

0:04:12.600 --> 0:04:14.760
<v Speaker 3>like they, oh my, we we found, you know, the

0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:18.560
<v Speaker 3>actual statue of Liberty. I was like, wow, those people, Uh, man,

0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:20.200

0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:21.320

<v Speaker 1>You're going or are you gonna go?

0:04:56.200 --> 0:04:57.360
<v Speaker 4>We are, yeah, yeah.

0:04:57.400 --> 0:05:00.200
<v Speaker 5>We were here on their radio row at MGM Broadcast

0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:01.200
<v Speaker 5>Live yesterday.

0:05:01.839 --> 0:05:02.839
<v Speaker 4>That was a lot of fun.

0:05:02.960 --> 0:05:05.320
<v Speaker 5>And they had just done the Way In, so there

0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:07.920
<v Speaker 5>were a ton of boxing fans here for the way In,

0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:10.800
<v Speaker 5>which was free and open to the public. So it

0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:14.400
<v Speaker 5>was jumping here yesterday and the night is the actual fight,

0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:16.280
<v Speaker 5>we're going to be in attendance should.

0:05:16.000 --> 0:05:19.240
<v Speaker 3>Be good, nice, and there were there a bunch of

0:05:19.440 --> 0:05:23.480
<v Speaker 3>Mexican boxing fans because they are very loud racist. I

0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:26.680
<v Speaker 3>remember back in the day when I covered fights, the

0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:29.920
<v Speaker 3>very loud, lot of flags, a lot of flags, very

0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:30.680
<v Speaker 3>loud and.

0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:33.520
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, very loud. Yeah.

0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:38.040
<v Speaker 5>In fact, this past Thursday on the show, I got

0:05:38.160 --> 0:05:41.600
<v Speaker 5>David Benavitez to do a zoom interview and he mentioned

0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:45.120
<v Speaker 5>that because they asked him about his walk up music

0:05:45.200 --> 0:05:47.920
<v Speaker 5>and his intro to the ring, and he was talking

0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:51.599
<v Speaker 5>about how he's including he's incorporating artists now and he

0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:54.240
<v Speaker 5>said he's using Mexican artists because he's like, you know,

0:05:54.360 --> 0:05:58.040
<v Speaker 5>most of my fans are Latino and they are very

0:05:58.080 --> 0:06:01.960
<v Speaker 5>loud and supportive. And that was very much the crowd

0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:06.360
<v Speaker 5>that we saw here at MGM yesterday. In throngs, and

0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:10.680
<v Speaker 5>the thinking is, if Benavetez wins this bout, and it's

0:06:10.680 --> 0:06:14.080
<v Speaker 5>not a cakewalk because Moral is undefeated, as I mentioned,

0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:16.800
<v Speaker 5>and he's a good boxer less bout so he's a

0:06:16.800 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 5>little Benavitez is a little more experienced. But the thinking is,

0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:24.400
<v Speaker 5>if David Benavitez wins this fight, then he's going to

0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:29.640
<v Speaker 5>go possibly could fight Canelo, and Canelo has been dodging

0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:33.520
<v Speaker 5>Benavitez for a couple of years now because these people

0:06:33.560 --> 0:06:34.560
<v Speaker 5>say he's scared of him.

0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:38.839
<v Speaker 1>Ah, the old that's a classic boxing trope that you

0:06:38.960 --> 0:06:40.480
<v Speaker 1>are scared of the other guy.

0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:44.880
<v Speaker 3>The only Mexican boxing and don't quit, I'm not mister boxing.

0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:46.680
<v Speaker 3>But the only one I remember back in my early

0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:49.760
<v Speaker 3>days of my career that not every Mexican boxing fan

0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:52.560
<v Speaker 3>liked was Oscar de la Hoya. There were people that

0:06:52.600 --> 0:06:55.840
<v Speaker 3>were did not like that. They didn't think he was real,

0:06:55.960 --> 0:06:58.800
<v Speaker 3>they thought, and then the photos came out, which kind

0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:01.719
<v Speaker 3>of made things a little awkward, But yeah, that was

0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:03.680
<v Speaker 3>the one that was polarized. I remember de la Hoya

0:07:03.800 --> 0:07:05.719
<v Speaker 3>back in the day, but he's like a big boxing

0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:08.640
<v Speaker 3>promoter now. I guess on this podcast, we've got Itch

0:07:08.720 --> 0:07:11.880
<v Speaker 3>to scratch pulling a Ben Maler. I can't imagine what

0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:15.640
<v Speaker 3>that is. Winter rummage. And we've got possibly the phrase

0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:17.680
<v Speaker 3>of the week. Some other things we'll see if we

0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:19.160
<v Speaker 3>have time for, but I'll start with this.

0:07:19.720 --> 0:07:22.320
<v Speaker 1>So the life of mal or the Life of Danny g.

0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:24.680
<v Speaker 1>That is why you tune into the fifth Hour podcast.

0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:27.480
<v Speaker 3>I know right now Ferg Dog's taking notes alf the

0:07:27.560 --> 0:07:29.920
<v Speaker 3>Alien Opiners, probably trying to find some recipes to send

0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:31.800
<v Speaker 3>me right now for some cookies to get me fat again.

0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:38.000
<v Speaker 3>These guys are hard at work. So Friday yesterday was

0:07:39.480 --> 0:07:43.640
<v Speaker 3>pizza Night. Yes, we had an itch to scratch Pizza Knight,

0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:47.680
<v Speaker 3>homemade pizza Pike. In the past, I've gone back and forth,

0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:49.680
<v Speaker 3>like there have been times I've bought.

0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:51.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't do Djorno any of that.

0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:54.080
<v Speaker 3>I don't do frozen pizza, but usually would just kind

0:07:54.080 --> 0:07:56.000
<v Speaker 3>of cheat a little bit, go to Trader Joe's, get

0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:58.920
<v Speaker 3>the dough and make pizza that way in the sauce.

0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:03.920
<v Speaker 3>But this time we said, let's go next level, and

0:08:04.000 --> 0:08:07.000
<v Speaker 3>so we made along with my wife, we made pizza

0:08:07.080 --> 0:08:11.000
<v Speaker 3>from scratch, like the dough, the tomato, sauce, the everything

0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:15.440
<v Speaker 3>mixed together. We hand we hand shredded the mozzarella and

0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:16.160
<v Speaker 3>the palmers on.

0:08:16.840 --> 0:08:17.720
<v Speaker 1>Uh. It was.

0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:19.800
<v Speaker 3>It was awesome and it came out really good. I'm

0:08:19.800 --> 0:08:22.960
<v Speaker 3>gonna I'm gonna post some photos later today, Danny. Uh,

0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:25.240
<v Speaker 3>probably this afternoon when I wake up from this.

0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:28.320
<v Speaker 4>I haven't seen anybody do that since my grandmother.

0:08:28.920 --> 0:08:29.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was.

0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:32.480
<v Speaker 3>It was cool and we we My wife did some

0:08:32.520 --> 0:08:36.880
<v Speaker 3>research and I had I'd made some stuff in the past,

0:08:36.920 --> 0:08:40.240
<v Speaker 3>but this was like the most we had ever done

0:08:40.320 --> 0:08:44.600
<v Speaker 3>where everything everything, Like I didn't go out and milk

0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:46.840
<v Speaker 3>the cow, you know, and make the cheese. I didn't

0:08:46.880 --> 0:08:49.760
<v Speaker 3>do that, and so so that I didn't do. But

0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:52.199
<v Speaker 3>the rest of it, I mean, everything together, and it

0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:53.640
<v Speaker 3>was it.

0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:56.080
<v Speaker 1>Was you know what it is. It's like it's satisfying, right, Danny.

0:08:56.080 --> 0:08:58.040
<v Speaker 5>It's like you feel like it passed your eyes. The

0:08:58.040 --> 0:08:59.760
<v Speaker 5>butter though with your jerking motion.

0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:05.400
<v Speaker 3>My right hand was getting a workout as I was Yeah, no, no,

0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:07.040
<v Speaker 3>So it was it was cool.

0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:08.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, I thought it came out good.

0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:11.520
<v Speaker 3>I'll take some I did take some photos last night

0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:16.520
<v Speaker 3>and I'll post them later today. And you know, it's

0:09:17.000 --> 0:09:20.040
<v Speaker 3>it's odd because not about the pizza thing, but yesterday

0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:23.199
<v Speaker 3>on the podcast, I was talking about Some people were

0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:26.720
<v Speaker 3>emailing me, They're like, how come we were on in

0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:31.560
<v Speaker 3>d C the night of that plane crash near Reagan

0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.680
<v Speaker 3>Airport in d C and the Potomac and we didn't

0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:35.199
<v Speaker 3>talk about it?

0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:36.079
<v Speaker 1>And I explained.

0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:38.160
<v Speaker 3>I was like, hey, you know, we're trying to we're

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:39.240
<v Speaker 3>alternative programming.

0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:39.880
<v Speaker 1>I think I said that.

0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:42.520
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if I about cloudy right now, but

0:09:42.960 --> 0:09:45.160
<v Speaker 3>I think I said something along those lines, like you know,

0:09:45.160 --> 0:09:48.679
<v Speaker 3>alternative programming and all that, and.

0:09:48.040 --> 0:09:48.960
<v Speaker 1>That's kind of my position.

0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:53.040
<v Speaker 3>So and then last night there was another plane that

0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:57.720
<v Speaker 3>crashed in Philadelphia, which is I mean, I know that's

0:09:57.760 --> 0:10:01.959
<v Speaker 3>not a commercial flight. It was like a medical a

0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:04.520
<v Speaker 3>plane that was lying, but like right in the city

0:10:04.720 --> 0:10:05.680
<v Speaker 3>in Philly.

0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:08.520
<v Speaker 4>It was a big explosion for a small plane.

0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:11.560
<v Speaker 3>And the thing I was telling one of my buddies,

0:10:11.559 --> 0:10:14.400
<v Speaker 3>I was like, the thinking about this is crazy is

0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:19.680
<v Speaker 3>everything is on video. There's no we have video of

0:10:19.720 --> 0:10:23.400
<v Speaker 3>the helicopter hitting the plane in DC. I've already seen

0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:25.880
<v Speaker 3>videos some people were sending me last night of dash

0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:32.280
<v Speaker 3>cam of the medical plane coming down and at a

0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:34.559
<v Speaker 3>very high rate of speed. Like I don't know what

0:10:34.600 --> 0:10:38.120
<v Speaker 3>went wrong, but something went terrible wrong, terribly. I mean,

0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:41.319
<v Speaker 3>it was like flying directly into the city in Philadelphia,

0:10:42.000 --> 0:10:44.840
<v Speaker 3>and I don't I don't know how many people were

0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:48.760
<v Speaker 3>killed on the ground, but I imagine it was a

0:10:48.920 --> 0:10:50.800
<v Speaker 3>it was a few. I've seen different reports. I don't

0:10:50.840 --> 0:10:53.360
<v Speaker 3>think anything, at least I haven't seen it this morning.

0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:55.720
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure there's probably some stuff. I haven't found how

0:10:55.720 --> 0:10:59.080
<v Speaker 3>many people were were hit by that, but just just

0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:02.680
<v Speaker 3>wild man, crazy crazy stuff. So I was checking that out,

0:11:03.320 --> 0:11:06.120
<v Speaker 3>and uh, I guess you could say every night, Danny,

0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:10.559
<v Speaker 3>I pull a Ben Maller. Every single night I do.

0:11:10.880 --> 0:11:13.360
<v Speaker 3>I can't avoid it. Sometimes I pull a Bill Miller.

0:11:13.360 --> 0:11:15.400
<v Speaker 3>Every once in a while I go Bill Miller, but

0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:17.360
<v Speaker 3>normally I go Ben Maller.

0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:18.320
<v Speaker 4>That's normally what I do.

0:11:19.080 --> 0:11:22.560
<v Speaker 5>Well, the radio row that I was at yesterday, it

0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:26.839
<v Speaker 5>was shades of you and I walking the Sofi super Bowl.

0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:30.240
<v Speaker 5>If you remember back to that. Some people were still

0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:34.200
<v Speaker 5>wearing COVID masks. I remember, yep, yep. And you had

0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:37.079
<v Speaker 5>to pay for parking, which irritated you quite a bit.

0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I was there for work.

0:11:40.240 --> 0:11:41.720
<v Speaker 3>I had to park, not only to have to pay

0:11:41.760 --> 0:11:44.400
<v Speaker 3>for parking, I paid for parking and it was like

0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:47.559
<v Speaker 3>really far. I remember, I was kind of sweaty when

0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:49.400
<v Speaker 3>I showed up and it was you know, it's a

0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:51.280
<v Speaker 3>hot day and it was a pain in the ass.

0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:53.160
<v Speaker 1>I remember that, Eh.

0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:55.040
<v Speaker 4>You remember how you got your parking money back.

0:11:55.840 --> 0:11:58.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to think you what did I? Oh? Did I?

0:11:58.200 --> 0:12:02.320
<v Speaker 3>Oh? Something involved having swag or something? Right, didn't we

0:12:02.320 --> 0:12:03.000
<v Speaker 3>sell the Yeah?

0:12:03.440 --> 0:12:06.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, we went to the refreshment room there at the

0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:11.160
<v Speaker 5>Super Bowl media row and we both loaded up our bags.

0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:16.800
<v Speaker 5>Oh yes, everything you took. You started doing Mallard math

0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:20.240
<v Speaker 5>like that. Right, there would be five dollars in the store.

0:12:20.440 --> 0:12:23.680
<v Speaker 5>I think that's about three ninety nine. Oh oh, look

0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:26.559
<v Speaker 5>at that. That's six dollars at the store. And by

0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:29.920
<v Speaker 5>the time your bag was full, you owed them money

0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:31.240
<v Speaker 5>for more parking.

0:12:31.760 --> 0:12:34.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Yeah, so they had a lot of free stuff

0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:35.240
<v Speaker 3>at the box.

0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:37.120
<v Speaker 5>I think there was there was, Yeah, I just I

0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:41.360
<v Speaker 5>just texted you, okay what my haull was. And not

0:12:41.520 --> 0:12:43.720
<v Speaker 5>included in the photo are the things that I actually

0:12:44.000 --> 0:12:45.920
<v Speaker 5>ate like a fat ass while I sat there.

0:12:46.320 --> 0:12:49.520
<v Speaker 3>Oh right, these are some good items here. Got some

0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:52.960
<v Speaker 3>schneiders of handover pretzels. Those are solid. That's right there.

0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:55.840
<v Speaker 3>That's probably how much you think that would cost an

0:12:55.840 --> 0:13:01.760
<v Speaker 3>a venting machine three bucks something like that. Okay, boom

0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:04.760
<v Speaker 3>chicka pop kettle corn. That's what do you think that's

0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:10.960
<v Speaker 3>another four dollars or so? Probably? I bet those granola

0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:14.800
<v Speaker 3>bars are expensive. They usually upsell you on the overcharge

0:13:14.800 --> 0:13:15.840
<v Speaker 3>you on the granola bars.

0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:19.040
<v Speaker 4>Maybe. And then they had these bags of corn nuts.

0:13:19.400 --> 0:13:21.200
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I see the corn nuts there? Yeah, those are

0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:24.640
<v Speaker 3>pretty good. How much was the park? How much was

0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:25.000
<v Speaker 3>the park?

0:13:25.720 --> 0:13:27.760
<v Speaker 4>No? So I didn't have to pay for parking, so

0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:28.440
<v Speaker 4>screw them.

0:13:29.240 --> 0:13:32.480
<v Speaker 5>We were there working, so technically these snacks were for me.

0:13:32.600 --> 0:13:36.880
<v Speaker 5>But what they didn't see these people running the premiere

0:13:36.960 --> 0:13:40.840
<v Speaker 5>boxing there. They didn't see Danny g walk over during

0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:44.880
<v Speaker 5>the Jim Lampley interview and accidentally put two bags of

0:13:44.920 --> 0:13:47.920
<v Speaker 5>corn nuts into his left pocket while putting an extra

0:13:48.000 --> 0:13:52.360
<v Speaker 5>granola bar into his right pocket. And then the Snyder's

0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:55.800
<v Speaker 5>bags of big pretzels you see there. I slipped those

0:13:55.840 --> 0:13:59.360
<v Speaker 5>in my computer bag. So before I left the middle table,

0:13:59.400 --> 0:14:03.120
<v Speaker 5>which had the refreshments, I was packed and loaded my

0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:06.320
<v Speaker 5>hotel room. Here now has I don't know about three

0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:07.640
<v Speaker 5>days worth of snacks?

0:14:08.240 --> 0:14:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Good?

0:14:09.120 --> 0:14:11.520
<v Speaker 3>Now, are you going to take those with you? Because

0:14:11.559 --> 0:14:14.040
<v Speaker 3>I think you're traveling on right? Are you going back

0:14:14.080 --> 0:14:17.840
<v Speaker 3>to LA. Are you going to keep going to another destination?

0:14:18.200 --> 0:14:18.840
<v Speaker 1>That's the question.

0:14:19.080 --> 0:14:23.000
<v Speaker 5>This is why I needed these, And if the refreshment

0:14:23.080 --> 0:14:25.920
<v Speaker 5>room is open again tomorrow, I'm going to take some more.

0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:31.480
<v Speaker 5>Because my backpack has one dedicated pocket for airplane snacks.

0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:35.640
<v Speaker 5>Why because Southwest sucks nowadays. They give you one little

0:14:35.680 --> 0:14:39.400
<v Speaker 5>bag of roasted peanuts or like that little checks mix

0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:42.560
<v Speaker 5>the poor a little glass of soda for you. They

0:14:42.560 --> 0:14:45.080
<v Speaker 5>don't even give you the whole can basically tell you

0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:47.800
<v Speaker 5>to shut up and like it, and you're starving on

0:14:47.840 --> 0:14:51.680
<v Speaker 5>the entire flight. So my goal is to get enough

0:14:51.720 --> 0:14:54.560
<v Speaker 5>free snacks to fly all the way to New Orleans,

0:14:54.600 --> 0:14:56.600
<v Speaker 5>which we're going to do tomorrow morning.

0:14:57.200 --> 0:15:00.440
<v Speaker 3>Gotcha, And I have not flown Southwest in a while.

0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:03.480
<v Speaker 3>I thought they were switching to dedicated seas. Do they

0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:05.080
<v Speaker 3>still have the open seating right now?

0:15:05.400 --> 0:15:09.360
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, they haven't made that switch yet. It's like it's

0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:12.280
<v Speaker 5>like sitting in the queue for Disneyland. Now you have

0:15:12.320 --> 0:15:15.840
<v Speaker 5>to sit there twenty four hours before your flight and

0:15:16.000 --> 0:15:20.200
<v Speaker 5>quickly press your your button for the reservation. That way

0:15:20.240 --> 0:15:22.680
<v Speaker 5>you can get in the B group and not be

0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:25.960
<v Speaker 5>one of the lonely idiots who walks on the plane

0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:27.840
<v Speaker 5>last with no overhead space.

0:15:28.360 --> 0:15:30.160
<v Speaker 3>Well not only no overhead space, but then you're in

0:15:30.160 --> 0:15:33.000
<v Speaker 3>a middle seat, which is you know, I don't know about.

0:15:32.760 --> 0:15:37.080
<v Speaker 1>You, but you have got to be kidding me. Yeah,

0:15:37.080 --> 0:15:39.280
<v Speaker 1>that's pretty it's pretty bad.

0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:41.920
<v Speaker 3>And then they they charge extra if you want to

0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:42.960
<v Speaker 3>be in the A group, right, you got to pay

0:15:43.000 --> 0:15:44.160
<v Speaker 3>they can they upsell you on that.

0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:48.360
<v Speaker 5>They up charge you exactly. That's why you could be

0:15:48.400 --> 0:15:50.880
<v Speaker 5>the first one boom. Like we had a nine am

0:15:50.960 --> 0:15:54.280
<v Speaker 5>flight on Friday morning. Right at nine am, I press

0:15:54.360 --> 0:15:56.080
<v Speaker 5>that button just like I was trying to get at

0:15:56.080 --> 0:16:01.160
<v Speaker 5>Disneyland Reservation and it still put me at B twenty two.

0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:04.360
<v Speaker 5>So yeah, they they save that a to try to

0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:05.640
<v Speaker 5>make extra money off.

0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:09.680
<v Speaker 3>Of it, and they nickel and dimian and yeah. The

0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:14.760
<v Speaker 3>thing about Vegas though, back to Vegas is I still

0:16:14.880 --> 0:16:19.840
<v Speaker 3>enjoy Vegas, but it just sucks so much compared to

0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:21.640
<v Speaker 3>how I don't want to be that guy. I'll be

0:16:21.720 --> 0:16:24.000
<v Speaker 3>that guy. How it used to be free parking. They

0:16:24.040 --> 0:16:25.640
<v Speaker 3>give you a lot of perks back in the day,

0:16:26.480 --> 0:16:27.920
<v Speaker 3>and it's just.

0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:30.560
<v Speaker 1>Not that anymore. They know that the parking thing.

0:16:30.840 --> 0:16:34.520
<v Speaker 3>Every hotel on the strip they and it's not just

0:16:34.560 --> 0:16:37.840
<v Speaker 3>a few bucks it's expensive. I mean, you go from

0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:41.400
<v Speaker 3>hotel to hotel, it's like fifteen twenty dollars per hotel

0:16:41.920 --> 0:16:42.760
<v Speaker 3>on the weekends.

0:16:42.800 --> 0:16:43.480
<v Speaker 1>The park there.

0:16:45.720 --> 0:16:47.720
<v Speaker 3>It just kills me because, like, don't you want people

0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:49.600
<v Speaker 3>to spend their money on gimling. They must think that

0:16:49.640 --> 0:16:51.880
<v Speaker 3>nobody actually gambles, I guess anymore, every time I walk

0:16:51.920 --> 0:16:54.640
<v Speaker 3>into a casino, it's full of people gambling.

0:16:55.200 --> 0:16:59.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, not just that, Benny, but two things are two

0:16:59.040 --> 0:17:02.840
<v Speaker 5>little ones I saw, I should say, two newborns being

0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:07.200
<v Speaker 5>held by their mothers down on the casino floor, both

0:17:07.200 --> 0:17:11.119
<v Speaker 5>of them smiling, rocking their little babies. Meanwhile, there's a

0:17:11.160 --> 0:17:14.840
<v Speaker 5>guy smoking a big stoky right next to the little

0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:18.679
<v Speaker 5>newborn and as you know, it's a big cloud of

0:17:18.760 --> 0:17:23.120
<v Speaker 5>cigarette smoke. Why in the fucking world would you bring

0:17:23.160 --> 0:17:27.359
<v Speaker 5>a little newborn into the New York New York casino floor.

0:17:27.520 --> 0:17:29.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, mama's got to do what mama's got

0:17:29.480 --> 0:17:31.840
<v Speaker 1>to do. I guess, but jeez.

0:17:32.359 --> 0:17:34.480
<v Speaker 4>I don't get it. I saw two in a row.

0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:38.480
<v Speaker 3>Did you see the gambling numbers that were released for December?

0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:40.840
<v Speaker 3>I always love this. I mentioned this in the past.

0:17:40.960 --> 0:17:43.639
<v Speaker 3>We've talked about this on the on the podcast You

0:17:43.680 --> 0:17:44.800
<v Speaker 3>Want to take a guess what.

0:17:45.520 --> 0:17:46.440
<v Speaker 1>We'll play a little.

0:17:46.200 --> 0:17:48.480
<v Speaker 3>Guessing game with Dandy Jes since you're doing the show

0:17:48.520 --> 0:17:49.520
<v Speaker 3>from Vegas.

0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:53.800
<v Speaker 1>Today this morning. So how what I mean? Let me

0:17:53.800 --> 0:17:54.600
<v Speaker 1>phrase this the right way.

0:17:54.640 --> 0:17:57.560
<v Speaker 3>So this is from the Nevada Gaming Control or Nevada

0:17:57.600 --> 0:17:58.400
<v Speaker 3>Gaming Commission.

0:17:58.440 --> 0:17:59.040
<v Speaker 4>I guess it is.

0:17:59.680 --> 0:18:03.640
<v Speaker 3>And it's Nevada Casino's net win in the month of December.

0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:08.879
<v Speaker 3>So which part of the casino made the most money

0:18:09.680 --> 0:18:12.240
<v Speaker 3>for the casino? Like, what game do you think or

0:18:12.320 --> 0:18:16.240
<v Speaker 3>what device made the most money for the casino?

0:18:16.440 --> 0:18:17.080
<v Speaker 4>Oh?

0:18:17.720 --> 0:18:19.040
<v Speaker 1>Dude, do do do?

0:18:19.040 --> 0:18:22.560
<v Speaker 4>Do do do? I'm gonna say bacarac.

0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:29.000
<v Speaker 1>Dandy g that is a winner? Yeah what Yeah?

0:18:29.160 --> 0:18:34.639
<v Speaker 3>One hundred and ninety nine point six million. Damn revenue?

0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:35.760
<v Speaker 1>You ever put?

0:18:35.800 --> 0:18:38.119
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I always see that crowded. That's why I

0:18:38.160 --> 0:18:38.640
<v Speaker 5>thought that.

0:18:39.960 --> 0:18:42.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you see a crowd nobody must win one hundred

0:18:42.280 --> 0:18:45.040
<v Speaker 3>and ninety nine points six million. The casino took which

0:18:45.200 --> 0:18:48.639
<v Speaker 3>trump what is almost always number one, and that is

0:18:48.680 --> 0:18:49.840
<v Speaker 3>the penny slot machine.

0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:52.480
<v Speaker 1>OKAYNT craps.

0:18:52.520 --> 0:18:54.040
<v Speaker 4>Craps has to be up there.

0:18:53.960 --> 0:18:58.520
<v Speaker 3>Right, Uh not not actually not that I a quording

0:18:58.520 --> 0:19:00.320
<v Speaker 3>to this. Uh, this is again in the out of

0:19:00.359 --> 0:19:02.639
<v Speaker 3>Gaming Control and the load of gaming commission whatever it is.

0:19:03.400 --> 0:19:06.479
<v Speaker 3>It said baccarat was number one hundred and ninety nine

0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:11.000
<v Speaker 3>point six million in casinos in Nevada. The penny slots

0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:14.480
<v Speaker 3>was number two, one hundred and seventy nine point two million.

0:19:15.040 --> 0:19:19.320
<v Speaker 3>Number three was blackjack at one hundred and four point

0:19:19.560 --> 0:19:24.400
<v Speaker 3>two million. They made off blackjack, then after that roulette

0:19:25.160 --> 0:19:29.719
<v Speaker 3>thirty five point five million, then craps at thirty three

0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:34.119
<v Speaker 3>point five and then way down fifteen million dollars of

0:19:34.119 --> 0:19:35.399
<v Speaker 3>the sports books.

0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:37.520
<v Speaker 1>So they don't they don't make that much.

0:19:37.840 --> 0:19:40.120
<v Speaker 3>I mean, if you made fifteen million dollars in a month,

0:19:40.480 --> 0:19:42.800
<v Speaker 3>that's spread out abound all the casinos in Nevada, So

0:19:42.800 --> 0:19:46.119
<v Speaker 3>that's a fair amount. Does that mean that the sports

0:19:46.119 --> 0:19:48.720
<v Speaker 3>gamblers are winning some money or does that mean that

0:19:48.800 --> 0:19:51.080
<v Speaker 3>it's just pretty much breaking even the hotel?

0:19:52.200 --> 0:19:52.679
<v Speaker 4>I don't know.

0:19:53.240 --> 0:19:56.200
<v Speaker 5>We could ask Rich Davis about roulette. He's still down

0:19:56.200 --> 0:19:58.640
<v Speaker 5>on the floor right now now playing. I don't think

0:19:58.640 --> 0:19:59.760
<v Speaker 5>he's gone to bed yet.

0:20:00.359 --> 0:20:05.560
<v Speaker 3>That is Rich does Rich play? Does he bet odd

0:20:05.640 --> 0:20:07.639
<v Speaker 3>even red black? Or does he bet on numbers?

0:20:08.160 --> 0:20:11.679
<v Speaker 5>He always does red sixteen for Joe Montana.

0:20:12.240 --> 0:20:17.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh boy, all right.

0:20:18.119 --> 0:20:20.399
<v Speaker 4>Another living in the past.

0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:26.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I would I had that system we talked about

0:20:26.280 --> 0:20:28.560
<v Speaker 3>years ago and if it was you or gascon, but

0:20:28.640 --> 0:20:32.000
<v Speaker 3>it was. It was a full proofs you have to

0:20:32.000 --> 0:20:34.280
<v Speaker 3>have a big bank roll, but it was a fool

0:20:34.280 --> 0:20:38.399
<v Speaker 3>proof system of making money on on the the rolette

0:20:38.400 --> 0:20:43.040
<v Speaker 3>wheel where you would bet odd or even, you'd pick

0:20:43.320 --> 0:20:47.240
<v Speaker 3>red or black, and you'd if you won, you made

0:20:47.240 --> 0:20:47.840
<v Speaker 3>the same bet.

0:20:47.960 --> 0:20:50.480
<v Speaker 1>If you lost, you double the bet. If you lost again,

0:20:50.520 --> 0:20:51.360
<v Speaker 1>you'd double.

0:20:51.080 --> 0:20:53.680
<v Speaker 3>The bet and you you and then when you win,

0:20:53.760 --> 0:20:55.920
<v Speaker 3>you go back down to and you bet that whatever

0:20:55.920 --> 0:20:57.159
<v Speaker 3>your initial amount is.

0:20:58.040 --> 0:21:01.600
<v Speaker 1>And I did all right.

0:21:01.640 --> 0:21:03.199
<v Speaker 3>The problem is you got to sit there forever, and

0:21:03.200 --> 0:21:06.960
<v Speaker 3>occasionally you get really nervous because it goes like seven

0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:08.840
<v Speaker 3>or eight in a row where it goes the opposite

0:21:08.840 --> 0:21:11.000
<v Speaker 3>and then you start to panic a little bit. But

0:21:11.080 --> 0:21:13.679
<v Speaker 3>eventually it'll go back. But you just have to have

0:21:13.760 --> 0:21:15.840
<v Speaker 3>enough money to and you have to have the patience.

0:21:16.000 --> 0:21:18.720
<v Speaker 3>And I also think it's not I don't think it's allowed.

0:21:18.840 --> 0:21:20.199
<v Speaker 3>I think you might get in trouble if you do that.

0:21:20.240 --> 0:21:23.560
<v Speaker 3>But it does work. It does work if you have

0:21:23.680 --> 0:21:26.520
<v Speaker 3>enough money and you're willing to sit there like a

0:21:26.600 --> 0:21:30.159
<v Speaker 3>putts and get in the hole because you when you

0:21:30.200 --> 0:21:33.320
<v Speaker 3>double the bed every time, that adds up quickly. Dan,

0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:35.720
<v Speaker 3>if you go seven or eight, you're really betting a

0:21:35.720 --> 0:21:37.560
<v Speaker 3>lot of money by the time you get to nine

0:21:37.600 --> 0:21:38.000
<v Speaker 3>and ten.

0:21:38.920 --> 0:21:40.000
<v Speaker 1>So you got to be.

0:21:40.000 --> 0:21:42.960
<v Speaker 3>Willing to do that, and if you are, you can.

0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:45.840
<v Speaker 3>You know you should never take gamming advice from a podcast.

0:21:46.280 --> 0:21:46.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm just saying.

0:21:47.280 --> 0:21:52.320
<v Speaker 3>I'm merely pointing out that I've heard that works. We

0:21:52.359 --> 0:21:58.359
<v Speaker 3>had the Winter Rummage, Danny, the Winter Rummage, the garage

0:21:58.440 --> 0:22:04.159
<v Speaker 3>clean out, very exciting last weekend. I'd mentioned that I

0:22:04.200 --> 0:22:07.240
<v Speaker 3>have a lot of cool stuff from when I first

0:22:07.320 --> 0:22:11.560
<v Speaker 3>got into the business. I have some stuff when I

0:22:11.600 --> 0:22:15.439
<v Speaker 3>was a kid going and getting autographs, a lot of memorabilia,

0:22:16.920 --> 0:22:20.080
<v Speaker 3>random crap, and I'm thinking about selling a lot of it.

0:22:21.359 --> 0:22:23.960
<v Speaker 3>So give me some feedback. Let me know if you

0:22:24.000 --> 0:22:25.359
<v Speaker 3>guys are interested in any of this stuff, I can

0:22:25.359 --> 0:22:28.440
<v Speaker 3>put it on like eBay or I don't know. My

0:22:28.920 --> 0:22:31.640
<v Speaker 3>wife knows all the other places you can sell stuff

0:22:31.720 --> 0:22:32.840

0:22:40.280 --> 0:22:42.040
<v Speaker 3>that I could use the Mallard page. I think because

0:22:42.040 --> 0:22:42.880
<v Speaker 3>it's a work page.

0:22:42.920 --> 0:22:45.919

0:22:46.760 --> 0:22:48.400

0:23:19.680 --> 0:23:24.120
<v Speaker 5>of football, baseball, hockey, all kinds of crap in there.

0:23:24.880 --> 0:23:25.080

<v Speaker 3>Well, you know I know from back when I was dating.

0:24:04.400 --> 0:24:06.359
<v Speaker 3>It wasn't called ghosting when I was dating, but women

0:24:06.440 --> 0:24:08.240
<v Speaker 3>knew about it. They certainly did it quite a bit

0:24:08.280 --> 0:24:12.000
<v Speaker 3>when I was I was dating on Tuesday, those women

0:24:12.040 --> 0:24:13.920
<v Speaker 3>were ahead of their time. They all got headaches and

0:24:14.000 --> 0:24:16.520
<v Speaker 3>had hair appointments right when we were supposed to hang out.

0:24:16.080 --> 0:24:19.560

<v Speaker 3>Yes, the phrase of the week this week is grasping

0:24:30.800 --> 0:24:34.480
<v Speaker 3>at straws. Grasping at straws, that is the phrase of

0:24:34.520 --> 0:24:40.280
<v Speaker 3>the week. And this comes from the proverb a drowning

0:24:40.359 --> 0:24:46.160
<v Speaker 3>man will clutch at straws. This is from fifteen thirty

0:24:46.320 --> 0:24:52.960
<v Speaker 3>four Thomas Moore's dialogue of Comfort against Tribulation, Who was

0:24:52.960 --> 0:24:57.000
<v Speaker 3>published in fifteen thirty four. The phrase is a metaphor

0:24:57.119 --> 0:25:01.160
<v Speaker 3>that describes someone who is in a difficult situation and

0:25:01.160 --> 0:25:06.200
<v Speaker 3>they'll try anything to improve it, even if those attempts

0:25:06.320 --> 0:25:10.840
<v Speaker 3>are futile and of course obviously unlikely to work. For example,

0:25:10.960 --> 0:25:13.800
<v Speaker 3>you might describe someone who keeps trying to win an

0:25:13.920 --> 0:25:18.200
<v Speaker 3>argument by bringing up unrelated We call them non sequiturs,

0:25:18.840 --> 0:25:25.120
<v Speaker 3>as grasping at straws. You know, you can say clutching

0:25:25.119 --> 0:25:29.000
<v Speaker 3>at straws, but grasping its straws. So there it is

0:25:29.040 --> 0:25:33.719
<v Speaker 3>the phrase of the week, grasping at straws.

0:25:33.720 --> 0:25:36.439
<v Speaker 1>Do you ever grasp at straws? Dan he ever grasp

0:25:36.520 --> 0:25:37.360
<v Speaker 1>at straws?

0:25:37.720 --> 0:25:37.800
<v Speaker 3>No?

0:25:38.119 --> 0:25:40.560
<v Speaker 4>Usually I grasp at French fries.

0:25:41.400 --> 0:25:46.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, nothing wrong, Nothing wrong with fries. We call them

0:25:46.359 --> 0:25:49.239
<v Speaker 3>freedom fries. You know here in the States we call

0:25:49.280 --> 0:25:52.280
<v Speaker 3>them freedom fries for sure. Oh, I didn't want to

0:25:52.280 --> 0:25:57.160
<v Speaker 3>mensure that. I forgot big rumor in Vegas, major hotel

0:25:58.280 --> 0:26:02.359
<v Speaker 3>for sale like Clea to close in the next year

0:26:02.480 --> 0:26:02.840
<v Speaker 3>or two.

0:26:03.160 --> 0:26:03.880
<v Speaker 1>Did you hear this.

0:26:05.600 --> 0:26:06.720
<v Speaker 4>Circus Circus.

0:26:06.880 --> 0:26:13.360
<v Speaker 3>Yes, Circus Circus is for sale, and the rumor is

0:26:13.400 --> 0:26:16.920
<v Speaker 3>that I think they want like five billion or something

0:26:16.920 --> 0:26:18.520
<v Speaker 3>for it. I don't know who's got that kind of

0:26:18.520 --> 0:26:20.600
<v Speaker 3>dough laying around, but the rumors.

0:26:20.359 --> 0:26:21.800
<v Speaker 1>Are going to knock that thing down.

0:26:21.880 --> 0:26:24.760
<v Speaker 3>And then they haven't improved it since I was a kid,

0:26:24.800 --> 0:26:27.400
<v Speaker 3>and I'm getting old. Uh, and I think the same

0:26:27.400 --> 0:26:31.200
<v Speaker 3>bubblegum is there and all that. Anyway, there's a lot

0:26:31.200 --> 0:26:33.199
<v Speaker 3>of truck that is going to be the next boom

0:26:33.320 --> 0:26:37.040
<v Speaker 3>part of the Vegas strip, right around Circus Circus. That

0:26:37.200 --> 0:26:41.480
<v Speaker 3>area is the next wave of mega hotels are going

0:26:41.560 --> 0:26:47.280
<v Speaker 3>to put in Vegas. And I was chatting with a

0:26:47.320 --> 0:26:49.919
<v Speaker 3>source this week. Even it sounds much more impressive than

0:26:49.960 --> 0:26:53.639
<v Speaker 3>someone I casually know a source who said that is

0:26:53.800 --> 0:26:57.440
<v Speaker 3>likely going to be where the NBA Arena is built,

0:26:57.640 --> 0:27:01.040
<v Speaker 3>and Vegas is going to get an expansion NBA franchise

0:27:02.000 --> 0:27:04.240
<v Speaker 3>that will be announced in the next couple of years,

0:27:04.240 --> 0:27:05.120
<v Speaker 3>and they're going to build.

0:27:04.960 --> 0:27:08.399
<v Speaker 4>The arounah the Vegas Lebron's.

0:27:08.160 --> 0:27:14.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, did you see that story yesterday that

0:27:15.320 --> 0:27:21.119
<v Speaker 3>somebody from Lebron's Clutch Sports contacted stephen A Smith about

0:27:21.200 --> 0:27:23.560
<v Speaker 3>criticism of Bronnie James.

0:27:24.040 --> 0:27:24.600
<v Speaker 4>What is that?

0:27:24.760 --> 0:27:24.840
<v Speaker 3>No.

0:27:25.160 --> 0:27:28.680
<v Speaker 5>Doesn't surprise me though, because Lebron thought he was homies

0:27:28.720 --> 0:27:31.520
<v Speaker 5>with stephen A and then Steven A went off on

0:27:31.600 --> 0:27:36.040
<v Speaker 5>that rant so emotional on TV last week. He sounded

0:27:36.119 --> 0:27:40.080
<v Speaker 5>like like our boy Rob Parker times one hundred.

0:27:40.920 --> 0:27:43.200
<v Speaker 1>I bet man, you don't want to get robbed going

0:27:43.600 --> 0:27:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Rob getting.

0:27:44.359 --> 0:27:48.080
<v Speaker 5>So so Lebron what I read it caught him off

0:27:48.119 --> 0:27:50.400
<v Speaker 5>guard because he thought that they were cool with each

0:27:50.440 --> 0:27:51.400
<v Speaker 5>other He's.

0:27:51.240 --> 0:27:53.840
<v Speaker 4>Like, man, why is my dude doing me? Doing me

0:27:54.040 --> 0:27:54.400
<v Speaker 4>like this?

0:27:55.119 --> 0:27:59.439
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's all I've been contacted by people like that

0:27:59.480 --> 0:28:02.080
<v Speaker 3>in the past. It's just like, come on, dude, I'm

0:28:02.119 --> 0:28:03.840
<v Speaker 3>not on your payroll. If you want to pay me

0:28:04.040 --> 0:28:07.159
<v Speaker 3>to be a pr person, let me know. I'd be

0:28:07.240 --> 0:28:09.040
<v Speaker 3>more than happy to take a check. But I'm not

0:28:09.280 --> 0:28:11.240
<v Speaker 3>and you're not going to pay me, and I don't

0:28:11.280 --> 0:28:12.480
<v Speaker 3>really want you to pay me.

0:28:13.119 --> 0:28:18.480
<v Speaker 1>So stop, just stop. Stop. This is a total it's

0:28:18.520 --> 0:28:19.960
<v Speaker 1>a bamboozlement of.

0:28:19.880 --> 0:28:23.680
<v Speaker 3>The integrity of the NBA having Brownie out there. He

0:28:23.720 --> 0:28:25.800
<v Speaker 3>has no business being in the NBA. It's ridiculous. The

0:28:25.840 --> 0:28:28.520
<v Speaker 3>only reason there's because it was dead genetics. I get it.

0:28:28.640 --> 0:28:31.480
<v Speaker 3>Come on anyway, all right, we'll get out on that, Danny.

0:28:32.440 --> 0:28:34.919

<v Speaker 4>Whole podcast on sports.

0:29:52.000 --> 0:29:55.880
<v Speaker 5>Usually it's the other way around, where sports dudes, it's refreshing,

0:29:55.920 --> 0:29:59.000
<v Speaker 5>are weird? To hear them do a lifestyle show, but

0:29:59.440 --> 0:30:02.480
<v Speaker 5>this pot this has always been about life and everything else,

0:30:02.520 --> 0:30:04.680
<v Speaker 5>and we throw a little bit of sports in there.

0:30:04.760 --> 0:30:08.560
<v Speaker 5>So yeah, man, it's cool to be able to have

0:30:08.640 --> 0:30:13.040
<v Speaker 5>a diverse set of or non set of rules, I

0:30:13.080 --> 0:30:14.480
