WEBVTT - A Dead Air Horror Story 0:00:02.200 --> 0:00:05.400 If you thought four hours a day, dred minutes a 0:00:05.440 --> 0:00:09.119 week was enough, I think again. He's the last remnants 0:00:09.119 --> 0:00:12.400 of the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He 0:00:12.480 --> 0:00:15.440 treats crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as the 0:00:15.560 --> 0:00:20.160 rich pill poppers in the penthouse, to clearinghouse of hot takes, 0:00:20.239 --> 0:00:24.040 break free for something special. The Fifth Hour with Ben 0:00:24.079 --> 0:00:29.720 Maller starts right now. That it does, and we are 0:00:30.160 --> 0:00:36.200 in the air everywhere the vast power of podcasting. Back 0:00:36.240 --> 0:00:40.360 for a Saturday edition of The Fifth Hour, and we 0:00:40.360 --> 0:00:42.559 welcome you in eight days a week kind of not 0:00:42.680 --> 0:00:45.240 this week. More on that in a minute, and keep 0:00:45.240 --> 0:00:47.239 those reviews coming in. We thank you very much for 0:00:47.280 --> 0:00:49.920 that positive reviews to help us out yet again. Over there, 0:00:50.280 --> 0:00:57.920 David Gascon right over there, he's hanging on, uh, pull 0:00:57.960 --> 0:01:01.720 us down another mind. I don't know how. I don't 0:01:01.720 --> 0:01:03.680 know how we're doing it. I know it's a lot 0:01:03.720 --> 0:01:06.160 more challenging for you, but uh, I don't know how 0:01:06.240 --> 0:01:09.119 the funk we're getting through this without live games going 0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:13.440 on right now. But you how, you somehow are finding 0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:17.400 a way to um to polish a turret at times 0:01:17.600 --> 0:01:20.680 and and make magic happen, and so it's been a 0:01:20.720 --> 0:01:22.960 wild ride here on the podcast will last four to 0:01:23.080 --> 0:01:26.360 five months, especially with the the engagement we've had and 0:01:26.560 --> 0:01:29.720 listen ship is is sky high right now. So gonna 0:01:30.080 --> 0:01:32.160 big thank you to everyone that's been participating in this. 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:35.480 It's it's been great with taking the sports out of 0:01:35.520 --> 0:01:38.399 sports radio or podcast, that's what we've been doing here, 0:01:38.640 --> 0:01:42.040 and uh it's good. People are are listening more and more, 0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:45.400 which is nice. We've always got some controversy and something 0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:49.240 that gets politicized, and uh so we've got that going 0:01:49.280 --> 0:01:52.800 on now. We had John Sterling in here yesterday and 0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:55.520 I love that. That was great and we've gotten a 0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:59.000 lot of good reviews for John Sterling and I'm excited 0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:03.160 about that. And but today's podcast, we're gonna have some 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:05.840 of the traditional stuff. We're gonna have pop quiz and 0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:09.040 we'll do study this. Um. But I have to begin 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:12.239 with the reason I was not in the Magic Radio 0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:17.040 box on our Friday show, the Overnight Show. I'm on furlough. 0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:20.280 I'm on furlough, and we mentioned this Eddie took a 0:02:20.320 --> 0:02:23.840 week of furlough. I actually have a lot of furlough time. 0:02:24.560 --> 0:02:26.880 Um that they sliced me. Give me a good haircut 0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:29.600 there at the company, and I'm not gonna take all 0:02:29.680 --> 0:02:32.080 of it. I I decided. I was debating, like what 0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:33.720 should I take any of it? I was like, well, 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:36.640 I shouldn't not take any of it, you know, because 0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:39.800 I'm not getting paid, so you should take some of it. 0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:42.480 So my my plan is to try to take between 0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:46.680 now and when sports come back August first, to try 0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:48.560 to take some time off. So I'll take some like 0:02:48.639 --> 0:02:51.519 long weekends. We call those the Chuck Booms weekends where 0:02:51.560 --> 0:02:54.160 you take the Monday and the Friday. I think I'll 0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:56.960 try to do that most of the time and just 0:02:57.040 --> 0:02:59.400 have have an extended time. So so, yeah, I'm on furlough, 0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:01.840 but we had to do the podcast anyway this week 0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:04.920 because I had a chance to catch up with John Sterling. 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:06.239 So I was like, all right, we'll do that and 0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:08.960 then we'll Uh. I can't guarantee in the future there 0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:11.119 might be a weekend we don't do it when I'm 0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:14.640 on furlough. That could happen. I'm not I'm not guaranteeing 0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:18.160 we're gonna keep doing the podcast even when that happened. 0:03:18.200 --> 0:03:23.960 So that's the situation with the furlough game, and it's 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:26.680 you know, it's out of our control. You know, it's 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:31.880 a company wide mandate, and everyone had to give back, 0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:34.960 and so we gave back. And part of the deal 0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:37.200 was you you're not gonna work, and we're not gonna 0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:40.200 pay you, and you can choose to work some of 0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:42.920 it and and I will do some of the furlough days. 0:03:42.920 --> 0:03:45.320 But that's the deal on that. We also had a 0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:49.720 radio meltdown. We had a nice radio meltdown, is what 0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:53.800 we had. It was wonderful, wonderful radio meltdown. Uh. That 0:03:53.960 --> 0:03:58.680 was the broadcast line from my home studio that went down. 0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:01.280 They were doing some maintenance in the wee hours of 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:03.400 the morning when we're on the radio, and if you 0:04:03.440 --> 0:04:05.840 were listening to the show, you know this already. So 0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:09.720 I'm you know, I'm an hour in. I've done an 0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:14.120 hour radio and then I i i I hear silence, and 0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:16.760 I thought like Roberto was just kind of messing around 0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:19.360 with me and kind of goofing on me and all that. 0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:22.359 And then I didn't hear anything, and I was like, 0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:24.080 wait a minute, and then I realized I was off 0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:25.440 the air. So then I did what I always do, 0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:27.600 is I start like, uh, you know, I start kind 0:04:27.600 --> 0:04:30.720 of hitting stuff. But then I see these flashing lights 0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:33.680 that I've never seen before. Like I've had the equipment 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:35.840 you go to hell in a hand basket, but I've 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:38.840 never had that. Like there's certain lights that I don't 0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:41.800 even know we're there that started flashing. So I'm like, 0:04:42.040 --> 0:04:44.520 holy fuck, you know, I mean, what is going on here? 0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:47.320 And because they had they taught me, the engineering department 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:50.479 had taught me how to fix the problem that we 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:53.680 had before. But then this was just a broadcast line 0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:55.320 that went down. They were doing maintenance on this. There's 0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:58.160 nothing I can do. So I waited about ten minutes 0:04:58.320 --> 0:05:00.800 and it still was down, and then I skid dattled 0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:05.200 to work, and Eddie had to cover and and he 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:08.080 had to do dance there and cover and uh and 0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:11.359 that whole thing. So how many many segments was that? Ben? 0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:15.000 I think it worked out to be about two segments 0:05:15.080 --> 0:05:16.960 or so. I think it was about two segments. Yeah, 0:05:17.200 --> 0:05:19.680 how was how was that experience? Listening to it as 0:05:19.720 --> 0:05:22.960 you drove into the studio. Fox Sports Radio has the 0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:25.919 best sports talk lineup in the nation. Catch all of 0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:29.480 our shows at Fox sports Radio dot com and within 0:05:29.520 --> 0:05:31.960 the I Heart Radio app. Search f s R to 0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:36.080 listen live. Uh it was was blind. Scott was on 0:05:36.160 --> 0:05:38.400 and was like, hey, I think I know where Miller lives. 0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:41.080 I might move by. That was a little awkward. You know, 0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:42.680 Eddie did a good job. And it's tough when you're 0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:44.760 not prepared, and there's a different skill set to be 0:05:44.800 --> 0:05:47.080 a talk show host as opposed to a sidekick or 0:05:47.080 --> 0:05:50.240 an update guy. And you don't prepare with the same 0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:52.760 vigor when you're when you're in that role. And so 0:05:53.560 --> 0:05:56.000 it's when you put somebody in at the last minute. 0:05:56.000 --> 0:05:58.640 You gotta dance, you know, dance, man dance, Spider dance. 0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:00.719 And I thought Eddie did a good job considering he 0:06:00.760 --> 0:06:02.200 wasn't prepared for it. So I think he did a 0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:05.080 good job. He didn't end up like Spider shot dead right, 0:06:05.480 --> 0:06:10.120 he did not end up like that. Well, before I forget, 0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:12.680 I did want to say I had a proud uncle Ben. 0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:14.479 Mar We allowed to say Uncle Ben because you know, 0:06:14.680 --> 0:06:17.599 you know it's got canceled Uncle Ben. But I I 0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:20.080 am uncle Ben. I have a couple of nieces and 0:06:20.320 --> 0:06:23.200 I have a nephew now, which is we'll just go 0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:25.560 and I remember Looney had a great line about being 0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:27.039 a nephew one of the cool things about being a 0:06:27.080 --> 0:06:30.479 nephew is kids have no idea who's a blood uncle 0:06:30.600 --> 0:06:32.720 and who's not a blood uncle or aunt. You know, 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:34.360 I don't know. They just all it's all the same 0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:36.520 when you're a kid, which is kind of cool. But 0:06:36.560 --> 0:06:39.520 one of my my nieces in New York, she graduated 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:44.360 high school uh in Manhattan, and because of the apocalypse, 0:06:44.640 --> 0:06:47.000 we got to watch like the stream and the video 0:06:47.080 --> 0:06:49.640 and I was very proud. She's going off to college 0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:53.000 the next year, assuming the world does not end before then. 0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:55.240 Uh and so so that was pretty neat. It was 0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:59.640 fun to watch that see uh some whole photos and cool. 0:06:59.839 --> 0:07:02.560 Now you feel official, so you give the congratulations to 0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:07.320 to being an uncle. I will say, um my thoughts 0:07:07.480 --> 0:07:09.600 are are with one of your listeners and Philly Rob. 0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:14.440 I saw the news earlier in the week, um with 0:07:14.440 --> 0:07:17.760 with his cancer, so obviously keeping the chin up and 0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:21.960 hoping for good health because yeah, especial in times like this, 0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:26.640 you need as much support mentally, physically, emotionally as possible. 0:07:26.760 --> 0:07:30.880 So that's uh, some sad news. But hopefully he's on 0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:34.000 the men's and can get back to as quickly as 0:07:34.040 --> 0:07:39.280 humanly possible. Yeah, Philly Rob's great and uh, and I 0:07:39.360 --> 0:07:41.440 don't want to bug him because you know, that's a 0:07:41.440 --> 0:07:46.040 tough thing, and you know everyone handles that differently. Some 0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:49.160 people I've been corresponding with some listeners that have been 0:07:49.200 --> 0:07:52.239 going through cancer, and some of them are very talkative, 0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:53.880 you want to give me updates, and other people are like, 0:07:54.440 --> 0:07:57.160 I'll talk about it. So I want to respect Philly 0:07:57.200 --> 0:07:59.400 robs privacy, but I will hope I tell him this. 0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:02.040 I email them and I I told him, I hope 0:08:02.040 --> 0:08:03.720 he will kind of keep us updated as much as 0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:08.000 he can in this situation. So great, great fan and 0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:12.280 a tremendously generous a fan of the show. And he's 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:15.080 been been great. He's been in the studio uh several 0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:16.440 times over years. He was supposed to be in this 0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:18.480 year at the NFL Draft, dude, but there was no 0:08:18.600 --> 0:08:21.840 NFL draft, not not the way we normally have the 0:08:21.920 --> 0:08:24.560 NFL draft, So there was that. All right, let's get 0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:26.680 to pop quiz. You're ready for some pop quiz y 0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:30.520 flight in the mude. Um. You've you've escaped a mutiny 0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:33.679 over the last week, You've you've had your your basically 0:08:33.720 --> 0:08:36.600 your entire control system shut down. But yeah, let's do 0:08:36.640 --> 0:08:40.000 some positive things. Uh, alright, so I like this, but 0:08:40.080 --> 0:08:41.959 maybe you don't like the pop I like the pop quiz. 0:08:41.960 --> 0:08:43.600 I wish we knew if people like the pop quiz, 0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:45.160 if they liked it, they thought it was just dumb. 0:08:45.480 --> 0:08:48.080 You give out emails, so people don't email you about 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:51.600 this stuff. I get random emails, but not normally about 0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:55.080 any specific thing in the podcast other than the interviews. 0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:57.319 I did get a lots a lot of positive feedback 0:08:57.360 --> 0:09:00.440 from Fox Sports radio fans who love Mike North and 0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:03.080 wish you know North was still regularly on the network 0:09:03.160 --> 0:09:05.320 and all that. And I love North too. I mean 0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:07.600 this US we had them on its great I love 0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:11.880 I love those radio legends. Put them on all hacks, 0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:14.920 all all those guys. Um. But anyway, so yeah, you 0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:19.280 can't email us. It's a real fifth hour at gmail 0:09:19.360 --> 0:09:21.000 dot com if you want to send a note. But 0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:23.360 here's the pop Quizies are questions you can answer. The 0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:25.320 way's the bit supposed to work is I will ask 0:09:25.360 --> 0:09:29.480 the question plausibly for gascon, and then Gascon we'll have 0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:33.120 the opportunity to to answer, but you can also answer 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:37.040 before him. All right, So sales of this snack food 0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:41.240 have gone up twenty five since the start of the apocalypse. 0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:45.800 What is it? What is this snack food? Oreo cookies? 0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:56.240 No goldfish, big bag of goldfish? Better? Better goldfish? Though, 0:09:56.280 --> 0:09:58.439 is when you mix a little chocolate with a little 0:09:58.960 --> 0:10:03.000 it's huge, right all? Yes, do you have the original 0:10:03.040 --> 0:10:08.160 goldfish or do you have the pretzel flavored ones? I 0:10:08.240 --> 0:10:10.120 usually do the original. I don't think I've had the 0:10:10.160 --> 0:10:12.560 pretzel for flavored ones. Who do you? What do you go? Yeah? 0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:14.640 I go, I go original with that? Or even cheese 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:17.319 it's too cheese. It's well. The key with anything is 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:19.560 I learned this years ago on a cooking show. The 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:24.360 three most important food groups for any of us are salt, sugar, 0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:26.559 and fat. And if you can bind two of them, 0:10:26.600 --> 0:10:28.319 it's good. If you can find all three of them, 0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:33.240 it's amazing. But you can bind the salt from the goldfish, 0:10:33.559 --> 0:10:37.000 and then like milk, chocolate or some kind of sweet, 0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:42.320 it's nirvana. What it is? I just had I know 0:10:42.520 --> 0:10:46.600 that you you were flossing that picture being at Tito's 0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:51.520 Tacos last week on Instagram. Yes, I went to Teitos Tacos. God. 0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:54.320 I would eat there every day. If I live Tacos, 0:10:54.400 --> 0:10:56.960 I would go there every fucking day, and I would 0:10:57.000 --> 0:10:59.280 be the last thing. Oh my god, it's so good. 0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:02.120 I hadn't been there obviously in months because the place 0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:05.280 was closed down because of the pandemic or whatever. And uh, 0:11:05.320 --> 0:11:10.120 oh god, it's amazing, guests, gun, it's better than any steakhouse, 0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:16.200 any five star, ten star restaurant. It's amazing. It is. 0:11:18.040 --> 0:11:20.559 You can't go wrong with Mexican food in southern California. 0:11:20.640 --> 0:11:22.679 That's that's for damn sure. The only problem was when 0:11:22.720 --> 0:11:24.160 I left Tito's, I had to go on the I 0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:25.599 had to go on the four or five South, so 0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:29.240 I had to cross over from the good side of 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:31.400 the four or five to west of the four five, 0:11:31.600 --> 0:11:34.720 which is just dreadful. We can indoctrinate you, just dreadful. 0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:41.360 It was forble dirty, felt wrong anyway, Alright. According to 0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:46.480 a new survey, twenty percent of office workers admit they 0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:48.760 keep at least one of these in their desk. What 0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:55.600 is it, one of these in their desk? Um, I'm 0:11:55.600 --> 0:12:01.679 gonna say, a bathroom key, a bathroom key, al right, 0:12:02.080 --> 0:12:06.520 Uh no, that would be a toothbrush. A toothbrush. Yeah. 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:13.760 Good dental hygiene, good dental hygiene, very important. Yeah, I remember. 0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:17.320 Years ago. I didn't go on a lot of dates, 0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:19.960 but I did remember one of the women that I dated. 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:24.040 Her dad was a dentist, and she brushed her teeth 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:28.120 like five six times a day. And it was like O. C. D. 0:12:28.360 --> 0:12:31.000 Level teeth brushing or toothbrushing. You know, did she have 0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:33.599 any cavities? Why is that a teeth brushing and not toothbrushing? 0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:37.079 Why do we call it toothbrushing? But I don't think 0:12:37.080 --> 0:12:38.560 she had any caby. I don't know. I mean that 0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:40.200 was years ago. I don't know what happened. Now I 0:12:40.240 --> 0:12:42.800 do what happened to her, but I assume she's still around. 0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:47.120 I don't know. I don't know. I mean, you brush 0:12:47.120 --> 0:12:49.640 your teeth that much, you better not have any cavities, right, yeah, 0:12:49.720 --> 0:12:51.880 But do you keep well do you keep those two picks? 0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:55.000 The two pick flosses?

I did not 0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:19.880 floss when I was a kid, because you you probably 0:13:19.880 --> 0:13:23.599 had the string floss, right that we all. Yeah, I 0:13:23.720 --> 0:13:27.439 never did that, but gum makes a good toothpick dental floss. 0:13:27.520 --> 0:13:29.720 And yeah, I keep a bag in my car, and 0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:32.120 then I keep one bag in my backpack so whenever 0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:36.040 I'm traveling, And yeah, I need floss philosophy.

I have the Mallarmobile, which is like 0:14:50.920 --> 0:14:53.320 the seventh or eighth edition of the Mallonmobile that I 0:14:53.320 --> 0:14:55.680 have had, very similar to the Batmobile. It's not go 0:14:55.840 --> 0:14:59.200 to the Mallard Cave. Doesn't matter, asshole, It's what I 0:14:59.320 --> 0:15:02.200 call it, all right?

You know why? 0:15:05.520 --> 0:15:07.280 Because you're west of the four or five and you 0:15:07.320 --> 0:15:10.200 don't like fun. That's why I used to name I 0:15:10.280 --> 0:15:14.240 used to have an eighty one Crown Victoria total. That's 0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:16.320 a boss car right there. That's a light out of 0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:18.840 the L A P. D Lot. I bet yeah, total 0:15:18.880 --> 0:15:20.720 cop car from my dad was a hand me down 0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:22.720 my sister and then I had it. We used to 0:15:22.800 --> 0:15:25.160 name it the Blue Bomb because that thing would just 0:15:25.280 --> 0:15:28.600 run over or run through everything. And uh and I 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:32.480 was an absolutely medicine the road with that car. So yeah, 0:15:32.560 --> 0:15:35.680 but yeah, you shouldn't name your car anything. That thing's 0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:38.000 like an ugly no no no. But my first car, 0:15:38.120 --> 0:15:42.360 my grandpa Jack gave me, which was a nineteen seventies Valari, 0:15:42.520 --> 0:15:46.160 I called the brown Bomber stick bomber. Was it stick 0:15:46.200 --> 0:15:50.400 or automatic? Um? I don't know how to drive stick, 0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:55.520 so it was automatic. But yeah. It was brown on 0:15:55.560 --> 0:16:00.920 the outside, brown interior light, brown dashboard and what can 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:04.520 brown do for you? Did it smell like cigarettes? Yeah? 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:07.240 It had the old you know, it had the old 0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:10.720 guys smell. My grandpa did smoke, and so yeah, it 0:16:10.760 --> 0:16:12.560 had that whole I kind of fell in love with 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:15.360 it had the It had the greatest like seat. It 0:16:15.400 --> 0:16:18.000 was like a sofa. I remember this seat. It was 0:16:18.040 --> 0:16:20.520 like a long bench type seat set up and it 0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:26.120 was really comfortable. And but anyway, alright, new survey looked 0:16:26.120 --> 0:16:29.840 at the most common rules of the house that you 0:16:29.920 --> 0:16:33.960 had grown up. Now. Number one was you you want 0:16:33.960 --> 0:16:35.520 to take with Guess what number I'm gonna ask you. 0:16:35.520 --> 0:16:36.920 I was gonna ask you about a different number. But 0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:38.160 let me ask you, what do you think The number 0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:40.560 one rule when you were growing up for most people 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:44.240 was take off your shoes on the end of the house. No, 0:16:44.560 --> 0:16:48.080 it was you can't play until you finish your homework. 0:16:48.840 --> 0:16:51.280 You can't play until you finish now if you can't 0:16:51.280 --> 0:16:53.840 play video games until you finish your work. But before 0:16:53.880 --> 0:16:57.200 it was you can't like run outside and go run 0:16:57.240 --> 0:17:00.040 through the trees or the mountains or whatever the on 0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:01.880 your house or whatever. You know. Now you have like 0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:05.400 the you have the hierarchy. You can't you can't TikTok 0:17:05.480 --> 0:17:08.920 unless you're done with Facebook. You can't Facebook until you're done. 0:17:08.960 --> 0:17:11.400 On YouTube, you'r you can't YouTube INTI you're done reading 0:17:11.400 --> 0:17:14.040 a book. Yeah, there's a cadence to it. There's a 0:17:14.040 --> 0:17:17.360 certain cadence to it, absolutely all right. A recent survey 0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:22.320 asked adults to think back and identify what made some 0:17:22.320 --> 0:17:25.920 someone else's house cool when they were a kid. And 0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:28.199 I know you're old, guest, you're about to become older here, 0:17:28.200 --> 0:17:29.840 but can you remember back to when you were a kid. 0:17:29.880 --> 0:17:31.760 What do you think? The number one answer is that 0:17:32.320 --> 0:17:35.760 people said, boy, that house was so damn cool because 0:17:35.800 --> 0:17:38.399 of blank. I'll say this. How about a swimming pool. 0:17:39.960 --> 0:17:43.080 That's a good that's a good one, but you can 0:17:43.080 --> 0:17:44.760 only use the swimming pool when the weather is right. 0:17:44.880 --> 0:17:50.680 It's actually snacks, good snacks, right when you're a kid 0:17:50.960 --> 0:17:54.159 and everyone knows the cool house that's got all the 0:17:54.280 --> 0:17:58.160 candy and all the chips and all that stuff. Uh yeah, 0:17:58.160 --> 0:18:00.520 that that's that's pretty I think we've got the cool 0:18:00.520 --> 0:18:02.960 house here, guess on the Mallard Mansions, the cool house 0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:04.560 with all the I don't need any of it. I 0:18:04.680 --> 0:18:05.920 used to eat it, but I don't eat it now. 0:18:06.119 --> 0:18:10.200 But speaking of eating, have you barbecued that fucking steak yet? 0:18:10.560 --> 0:18:14.840 I have not come on, man, still two months ago. 0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:18.040 It's frozen. It's fine, it's frozen in time. I'm going 0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:20.480 to eat it. I tried, it's not been. I want 0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:23.720 a hundred degree day. Hundred degree day is what I'm 0:18:23.760 --> 0:18:27.400 looking for. I mean, I get too relaxed. Be sure 0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:29.800 to catch live editions of the Ben Maller show week 0:18:29.880 --> 0:18:34.080 days at two am Eastern Pacific. All right, pop quiz continues. 0:18:34.160 --> 0:18:36.879 Half of the people in your office think you do 0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:40.159 this too much, but you don't realize it. What is 0:18:40.200 --> 0:18:44.960 it gossip? No, we're too much cologne or perfume. I 0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:47.880 don't know anyone that wears cologne anymore here. That's because 0:18:47.920 --> 0:18:50.680 we work at radio. People love to smell like gas. 0:18:50.800 --> 0:18:54.160 They don't care. But if you work in an office, 0:18:54.760 --> 0:18:56.520 there used to be I've told the story before, but 0:18:56.560 --> 0:18:59.560 there was a young lady that worked at a country 0:18:59.880 --> 0:19:04.720 Yo station that was in our building, and she wore 0:19:04.960 --> 0:19:10.320 so much perfume that even if she had walked past 0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:13.600 seven or eight minutes earlier, you could still smell the perfume. 0:19:15.280 --> 0:19:16.600 Back in the day, when I used to go to 0:19:16.640 --> 0:19:20.600 the ballet, I smelled that very similar thing. And it 0:19:20.680 --> 0:19:22.600 was actually one of my one of my producers at 0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:28.639 the time said that, I think she's she's a dancer 0:19:28.720 --> 0:19:31.560 or something like that, and I think she turned out 0:19:31.600 --> 0:19:35.639 to like be a part time I don't know what 0:19:35.640 --> 0:19:38.080 do you call it, dancer or strip or whatever. Yeah, 0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:39.439 I mean she did that kind of thing. But but 0:19:39.640 --> 0:19:41.040 you know this all too well then, because when you 0:19:41.080 --> 0:19:43.320 go to the clubs or bars. You get dudes that 0:19:43.359 --> 0:19:46.639 will just dress themselves with cologne from the bathroom. You 0:19:46.680 --> 0:19:48.760 have one of those, one of those guys helping him 0:19:48.760 --> 0:19:49.960 out out, you give him adald and all of a 0:19:50.000 --> 0:19:52.480 sudden they just bathe and whatever cologne that's Or you 0:19:52.560 --> 0:19:54.000 go in the men's room when they have that. It 0:19:54.080 --> 0:19:55.560 was high and I hate the high. And I hate 0:19:55.560 --> 0:19:57.560 when someone's in the in the bathroom that to offer 0:19:57.560 --> 0:20:01.840 you like deodorant, and oh, I can't stand that. But 0:20:01.920 --> 0:20:04.359 then there are guys that are like, okay, I didn't 0:20:04.400 --> 0:20:07.639 take a shower, Okay, let me just pour It's like 0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:11.240 a cheap bathroom shower. Or you just pour cologne over 0:20:11.280 --> 0:20:17.359 your head. It's that is that is pretty gross, all right. 0:20:17.600 --> 0:20:21.359 A new survey says roughly two and five people have 0:20:21.520 --> 0:20:26.200 cut a vacation short because of this What is it? Um, 0:20:26.640 --> 0:20:31.040 I'd say the flu Uh Nope. They wanted to beat 0:20:31.080 --> 0:20:35.040 the traffic. And I'm in that group. I have done that. 0:20:35.160 --> 0:20:39.600 I have had Vegas weekends and I've gotten and I'm like, 0:20:39.600 --> 0:20:42.080 I'm gonna stay till Sunday. But anybody that lives in 0:20:42.200 --> 0:20:44.639 l A and goes to Vegas when things are normal knows. 0:20:45.320 --> 0:20:50.480 The get back traffic from Vegas on Sunday is apocalyptic. 0:20:51.000 --> 0:20:53.760 It is apocalypic You're just stuck out in Baker in 0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:57.000 the middle of nowhere, and it's just a fucking nightmare. 0:20:57.359 --> 0:21:00.240 And so I will occasionally I'll leave sometime ms in 0:21:00.280 --> 0:21:03.200 the middle of the night on Saturday, just to beat 0:21:03.240 --> 0:21:06.399 the traffic and just have clear sailing on the on 0:21:06.440 --> 0:21:09.760 the Hug. I've done that many times in Vegas in particularly. Yeah, 0:21:09.760 --> 0:21:12.359 there's a work around for that. That's called flying forty 0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:14.440 five minutes up and down from l A X to 0:21:14.920 --> 0:21:16.960 Sin City. That's what you should be doing. Well again, 0:21:16.960 --> 0:21:18.719 I didn't grow up west of the four or five. 0:21:19.080 --> 0:21:21.480 Live west of the four or five. For the commoners, 0:21:21.600 --> 0:21:25.320 the unwashed, we like driving. It's cheaper, and you have 0:21:25.400 --> 0:21:27.200 your car when you're in Vegas, and you can drive 0:21:27.240 --> 0:21:29.720 around at the different hotels and all that. So screw you. 0:21:29.720 --> 0:21:32.280 You're just showing how elitist you are. No, because it 0:21:32.320 --> 0:21:35.280 takes it's ninety dollars to fly from here to Vegas. 0:21:35.400 --> 0:21:37.120 And then the benefit is if I don't have a car, 0:21:37.240 --> 0:21:39.040 I don't want to have to pay for parking, and too, 0:21:39.359 --> 0:21:41.159 I get to walk around a little bit get my 0:21:41.200 --> 0:21:43.480 steps in while I go from casino to casino. You 0:21:43.560 --> 0:21:46.400 get your steps anyway, just walking from the parking lot 0:21:46.480 --> 0:21:49.080 to the hotel. They put the parking lot about seven 0:21:49.119 --> 0:21:51.560 miles from the front desk of the hotel. You gotta 0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:54.159 walk through the entire casino to get to the to 0:21:54.240 --> 0:21:58.159 the damn front desk. But today I'm gonna drive to Vegas. Guy, 0:21:58.200 --> 0:21:59.919 You're a fly to guy. That's the that's the difference. 0:22:00.280 --> 0:22:03.480 I'm out there stopping at the Mad Greek and having 0:22:03.720 --> 0:22:07.320 uh falafel. That's what I'm doing. Yes, that's right, hanging out. 0:22:07.320 --> 0:22:10.320 That's the only time I eat falafels the Mad Greek anyway. 0:22:10.359 --> 0:22:15.080 I uh more popuas. Fifty five of Americans fifty five 0:22:15.160 --> 0:22:21.200 percent of Americans say that this is the number one 0:22:21.280 --> 0:22:25.000 species they'd want to save from the list of endangered species. 0:22:25.040 --> 0:22:28.480 What is it? Oh my gosh, um, and this could 0:22:28.480 --> 0:22:30.399 be any of This could be bugs, This could be 0:22:30.960 --> 0:22:33.880 and you know, giant animals in the ocean. This could 0:22:33.920 --> 0:22:36.960 be land animals, This could be any um can go 0:22:37.040 --> 0:22:41.639 with a koala bear? Koala bear? All? Is it a 0:22:41.760 --> 0:22:47.800 koala bear? No? Honeybee? People love their honey. They enjoy 0:22:47.880 --> 0:22:52.000 the honey, what about those Asian murder hornets. Murder hornets? 0:22:52.320 --> 0:22:54.680 I want to save those. We have the synthetic ones. 0:22:54.720 --> 0:22:56.480 Remember we talked about that a couple of weeks ago. 0:22:56.520 --> 0:22:59.040 They were and being released in Florida and in Texas. 0:22:59.359 --> 0:23:02.600 Oh that's right, that's that's coming. That's great, alright, more 0:23:02.600 --> 0:23:06.040 pop quiz. A new survey says more than twenty of 0:23:06.080 --> 0:23:13.000 Americans will lose this at least once this year. Um, 0:23:13.800 --> 0:23:17.919 I think that's low car keys, house keys. Uh, no 0:23:19.160 --> 0:23:22.520 credit or debit card. Now, I think this number is skewed. 0:23:22.560 --> 0:23:26.840 It's actually not. My wife accounts for about of these 0:23:27.160 --> 0:23:28.919 at least once a week. I don't know where my 0:23:29.000 --> 0:23:31.320 debit card is. I don't know where my credit card is. 0:23:31.359 --> 0:23:32.920 And this is a mad search. You know, we're going 0:23:33.080 --> 0:23:35.720 I'm like digging around under the seat in her car. 0:23:36.560 --> 0:23:39.120 I'm like going through a purse trying to find her 0:23:39.119 --> 0:23:40.920 debit card. I'm like, you know, most of the time 0:23:40.920 --> 0:23:42.880 we find it. A few times we haven't found it. 0:23:42.880 --> 0:23:45.720 It's it's next to your cell phone in the parking 0:23:45.760 --> 0:23:49.479 lot of the costco. Oh yeah, that's right, that's right, 0:23:49.520 --> 0:23:52.600 all right, Uh, screw you. He's you know what about 0:23:53.280 --> 0:23:57.640 percent of your co workers have this in common? What 0:23:57.760 --> 0:24:05.240 is it about have in common? Oh shit, um, definitely 0:24:05.280 --> 0:24:14.880 not salary, Um, definitely not. Wait, um have in common birthdate? Birthdate? Alright, Uh, 0:24:15.160 --> 0:24:19.040 that's a lot. Thirteen percent. It's of people you work 0:24:19.119 --> 0:24:23.760 with worked at McDonald's. McDonald's is such a large employer 0:24:23.880 --> 0:24:27.239 that roughly percent of the population has worked at some 0:24:27.240 --> 0:24:30.480 point in their life as a teenager, most likely at McDonald's. 0:24:30.480 --> 0:24:32.400 I don't know anyone that's worked at McDonald I'm trying 0:24:32.400 --> 0:24:35.080 to Yeah, at Fox Sports Radio, did anyone work No. 0:24:35.240 --> 0:24:38.280 Jonas worked at Chuck E. Cheese lead to lap worked 0:24:38.320 --> 0:24:42.600 at the arc Light Movie Theater, movie theater, and guy, Yeah, 0:24:43.119 --> 0:24:45.800 I don't know anybody else. That's You don't really know much. 0:24:45.800 --> 0:24:47.360 You don't really you're west of the four or five. 0:24:47.400 --> 0:24:49.159 You don't really know much about the co workers. You 0:24:49.359 --> 0:24:52.560 really care about the co workers there? These are these 0:24:52.600 --> 0:24:54.840 are peasants between you and I. I think I know 0:24:54.960 --> 0:24:57.760 every coworker's name here. You don't know those are the 0:24:57.920 --> 0:25:00.760 that's the hoy POLOI. You don't care about the people, right, 0:25:00.920 --> 0:25:03.600 it's the ranking file. You don't want to talk to 0:25:03.640 --> 0:25:06.159 the lower order of society. You're a West of the 0:25:06.160 --> 0:25:09.560 four oh five guy. These people are hillbillies. These people 0:25:09.600 --> 0:25:11.679 are our country bumpkins. You don't want to talk to 0:25:11.720 --> 0:25:14.520 those people. Listen, this is uh, this is getting dangerously 0:25:14.560 --> 0:25:17.120 close to Goodwin's loss. I'll stay away from any of that, right, 0:25:17.280 --> 0:25:26.680 Oh wow, all right, going to activate Goodwins log. Yeah? Anyway, Um, yeah, 0:25:26.680 --> 0:25:28.920 I don't know anybody off the top of my head 0:25:28.920 --> 0:25:31.480 that in my circle that worked. What about Do you 0:25:31.480 --> 0:25:34.760 know anyone that worked it in and out which is 0:25:34.840 --> 0:25:39.760 big here in l A. No, you know, not at all. 0:25:39.800 --> 0:25:41.919 But I know they make some pretty good I had 0:25:41.960 --> 0:25:45.600 a friend that worked, my buddy from elementary school who 0:25:45.640 --> 0:25:50.200 worked at Del Taco fast food chain and Carl's Jr. 0:25:51.119 --> 0:25:54.280 And so, But not McDonald not McDonald. Alright, A new 0:25:54.359 --> 0:25:56.919 survey do a couple more of these. We got some 0:25:56.920 --> 0:26:01.320 studied survey of this new survey found parents feel their 0:26:01.400 --> 0:26:05.000 child should be at least nine years old before they 0:26:05.000 --> 0:26:09.720 can get this what is it? A cell phone? Now? 0:26:09.760 --> 0:26:12.040 An allowance that seems a little old to me. I 0:26:12.040 --> 0:26:13.880 feel like I got an allowance before I was nine 0:26:13.960 --> 0:26:16.080 years old. But what were you doing cutting the grass? 0:26:17.359 --> 0:26:22.439 I would vacuum the carpet, and I had to do 0:26:22.480 --> 0:26:25.320 a little yard work, mow the law and that kind 0:26:25.320 --> 0:26:28.080 of stuff. All right. I did a shitty job mowing 0:26:28.119 --> 0:26:29.960 the lawn. I was a kid, but I did it 0:26:31.320 --> 0:26:35.400 all right. Last pop quiz. Armenia is the only country 0:26:35.480 --> 0:26:39.880 in the world that requires their students to learn this game. 0:26:42.160 --> 0:26:50.080 Um baccarat chess. Ah, very nice chess. You know how 0:26:50.080 --> 0:26:52.720 to play chess? I do. I do enjoy it, enjoy 0:26:52.760 --> 0:26:55.120 I'm not Bobby Fisher or anything like that, but yeah, 0:26:55.119 --> 0:26:57.200 my dad taught me when I was a kid. I'm 0:26:57.240 --> 0:26:59.280 more of a checkers guy. My mom and dad tried 0:26:59.320 --> 0:27:01.159 to teach me chest, but I'm too dumb and I 0:27:01.160 --> 0:27:03.440 couldn't figure it out. And I know that I knew 0:27:03.480 --> 0:27:05.080 some of the things, and I used some of like 0:27:05.119 --> 0:27:08.679 the some of the moves I'll use as references, but 0:27:08.720 --> 0:27:10.199 I don't know like the meat and potatoes of it. 0:27:10.240 --> 0:27:13.240 All right, Studying survey this real or bullshit tribute to 0:27:13.240 --> 0:27:18.000 Penn and Teller. All right, let's see her. A dog 0:27:18.160 --> 0:27:24.359 expert has invented a wagglemeter, which supposedly tracks the movements 0:27:24.400 --> 0:27:30.199 of a dog's tail to interpret its mood. I buy that, 0:27:31.160 --> 0:27:34.800 I mean, does Bella, Bella wax or tell when she's excited, right, 0:27:35.440 --> 0:27:38.239 and doesn't so much when she's tired. Yeah, usually when 0:27:38.280 --> 0:27:41.720 they're happy. It's like I always was told, when they're smiling, 0:27:41.800 --> 0:27:44.680 they wagged the tail. That's how that that works there, 0:27:45.400 --> 0:27:50.199 So I don't can't you just tell without needing a 0:27:50.240 --> 0:27:53.359 wag a meter to figure out whether they're happy or not. Well, 0:27:53.480 --> 0:27:54.879 it could be able to seeve me, like if the 0:27:54.920 --> 0:27:56.760 dog's tongue is out in the mouth is open, it 0:27:56.800 --> 0:28:01.080 could be the dogs tired. Yeah, but it's like getting 0:28:01.080 --> 0:28:05.160 too far into the weeds, isn't it. No? No, I mean, 0:28:05.200 --> 0:28:08.040 I love my dog and I hang with Bella all 0:28:08.040 --> 0:28:10.520 the time. But you know, man's best friend, you got 0:28:10.560 --> 0:28:13.280 a better getting a better understanding of him or her, 0:28:13.520 --> 0:28:14.960 all Right? So I read this on the internet. Do 0:28:15.000 --> 0:28:17.159 you think this is true? Humans have left two hundred 0:28:17.200 --> 0:28:22.600 tons of rubbish on the Moon. There's supposedly seventy spacecraft 0:28:22.720 --> 0:28:27.359 that have landed and been left there, old boots, backpacks, 0:28:27.520 --> 0:28:31.000 and nineties six PAGs of pa and vomit. I assume 0:28:31.040 --> 0:28:33.440 that's from the astronauts that when I'm walked on the Moon. 0:28:33.760 --> 0:28:36.159 That seems like it's a lot that's pretty excessive. I 0:28:36.160 --> 0:28:39.040 guess that goes back to our recycling conversation a few 0:28:39.040 --> 0:28:43.040 minutes ago. It seems like a lot two hundred tons. 0:28:44.120 --> 0:28:46.400 I don't how how do they know that there's two? 0:28:46.440 --> 0:28:49.000 I mean right, how do they know exactly it's two 0:28:49.080 --> 0:28:51.200 hundred tons? I don't know. Can you imagine what they're 0:28:51.240 --> 0:28:55.240 doing right now on SpaceX? Oh yeah, yeah, elon must 0:28:55.240 --> 0:28:59.360 they're moving to Texas, right, they're leaving California. Let's see 0:28:59.360 --> 0:29:02.440 if they actually do all right in Ohio State University. 0:29:02.520 --> 0:29:08.200 Study finds that not only is it specialized terminology difficult 0:29:08.240 --> 0:29:11.600 for us to understand, but according to this study, it 0:29:11.640 --> 0:29:16.480 actually makes people lose interest in science. And they said 0:29:16.520 --> 0:29:20.040 the same thing applies to political jargon as well. Researchers 0:29:20.440 --> 0:29:24.040 had participants read one of two versions of scientific articles 0:29:24.040 --> 0:29:26.680 to use this as the study, one full of jargon 0:29:27.040 --> 0:29:31.560 scientifical terms and the other using more colloquial language for 0:29:31.600 --> 0:29:36.760 the common man, right the the sharecroppers, and the people 0:29:36.760 --> 0:29:40.200 who read the jargon filled version reported feeling less informed 0:29:40.240 --> 0:29:42.800 about the topic and less qualified to discuss it, even 0:29:43.480 --> 0:29:48.600 if the difficult lingo was defined in the article, And 0:29:48.720 --> 0:29:51.560 according to what I'm reading here, the readers ultimately felt 0:29:51.640 --> 0:29:54.720 less interested in science, but the the opposite happened. The 0:29:54.720 --> 0:29:58.479 readers that read the colloquial version felt like they had 0:29:58.520 --> 0:30:01.120 a better understanding, and they've felt like they could talk 0:30:01.160 --> 0:30:03.440 about the article and give an opinion. That goes back 0:30:03.480 --> 0:30:07.040 to our conversation about you being Awards Smith, because I 0:30:07.080 --> 0:30:10.600 oftentimes I read certain things, now what's for legal purposes 0:30:10.720 --> 0:30:12.880 or not. I'm half the time I'm reading it. The 0:30:12.880 --> 0:30:16.360 other half I'm looking up. I'm in the dictionary, look 0:30:16.360 --> 0:30:19.520 at it to find certain words in there. I can 0:30:19.560 --> 0:30:23.600 totally understand that, Yeah, well it's in anything. It's the 0:30:23.880 --> 0:30:27.560 most important thing in broadcasting is to know thy listener, 0:30:27.680 --> 0:30:32.000 right if the listener can't understand what you're saying. You know, 0:30:32.160 --> 0:30:33.720 some of these guys I know when I first start, 0:30:33.760 --> 0:30:35.320 I don't know about as much now. I don't listen 0:30:35.360 --> 0:30:37.840 to too much of radio other than what we're doing, 0:30:37.880 --> 0:30:40.320 and I listened to a few of my friends. But like, 0:30:40.400 --> 0:30:43.680 there are people that try to show everyone. You know, 0:30:43.720 --> 0:30:47.840 it's like a pissing contest with I'm so great, I'm 0:30:47.880 --> 0:30:50.560 going to show you how smart I am, and they 0:30:50.600 --> 0:30:55.640 get into this big spitting match type thing and generally 0:30:56.480 --> 0:31:00.320 battle of egos and uh it's it's a cock fight 0:31:00.480 --> 0:31:02.880 and it's pretty bad to listen to usually. Yeah, but 0:31:02.920 --> 0:31:05.360 people get to see. People got annoyed back in the 0:31:05.440 --> 0:31:09.320 day with Bob Costas, and I couldn't understand why, because 0:31:09.320 --> 0:31:12.520 he's got a great grasp of the English English language 0:31:12.640 --> 0:31:16.200 and so sometimes that he use words that weren't necessary 0:31:16.240 --> 0:31:18.680 relatable to a lot of people. I appreciate that, like 0:31:18.760 --> 0:31:22.400 having the having that kind of depth is a beautiful 0:31:22.400 --> 0:31:24.800 thing with language. Man, it's it's a great powerful tool, 0:31:24.880 --> 0:31:27.840 especially when you're on television and on radio all the time. 0:31:28.400 --> 0:31:30.600 Well it's I I mix in some big words, some 0:31:30.720 --> 0:31:32.800 ten dollar words like but I try to make them 0:31:32.880 --> 0:31:37.240 fun words like hornswoggle or hoodwink or bambooze or skullduggery 0:31:37.360 --> 0:31:39.120 or something like that. I think those are fun words. 0:31:39.120 --> 0:31:43.120 Bamboozleman's a great word to throw out there. Um, you 0:31:43.120 --> 0:31:45.720 know these things. It kind of livens it up a little. 0:31:45.960 --> 0:31:47.760 But that's the main reason. It's like to me, it's 0:31:47.800 --> 0:31:50.360 putting sugar into a recipe, a little extra sugar to 0:31:50.360 --> 0:31:54.200 give it a little more sweetness rather than be boring anyway. 0:31:54.200 --> 0:31:57.720 All right, Uh see here it may sound like science fiction, 0:31:57.800 --> 0:32:01.440 but apparently it's real. It's real science. An international team 0:32:01.440 --> 0:32:05.480 of scientists has created a three D artificial ie that 0:32:05.640 --> 0:32:10.160 looks human like and actually functions better than a human 0:32:10.240 --> 0:32:15.520 eye or any other biotic creation. About that it's coming. 0:32:15.720 --> 0:32:20.800 Bionic eyes a huge breakthrough in the development for obviously 0:32:20.840 --> 0:32:25.080 people that are having vision problems, the blind and whatnot. Now, 0:32:25.200 --> 0:32:28.400 the current eyes, the fake guys they have do not 0:32:28.560 --> 0:32:33.760 provide much clarity, and they usually require special sunglasses and whatnot. 0:32:33.760 --> 0:32:37.120 But apparently this out of Hong Kong University of Science 0:32:37.120 --> 0:32:41.400 and Technology. They are very optimistic that they have solved 0:32:41.640 --> 0:32:44.640 many of those issues. Does that mean we can get 0:32:44.680 --> 0:32:47.640 blind scan as a test subject on us? Like, can 0:32:47.680 --> 0:32:51.040 we get someone to test drive the sucker? Yeah? He said, 0:32:51.240 --> 0:32:53.200 he emailed me. I think he called the show and 0:32:53.200 --> 0:32:56.000 talked about this too. There's some some glasses you can 0:32:56.040 --> 0:32:59.760 get that will help blind people actually see it seems 0:32:59.800 --> 0:33:02.760 why And I asked him if he was going to 0:33:02.840 --> 0:33:09.320 do that that Tesla thing, the musk, and he said no, 0:33:09.400 --> 0:33:12.480 because he thinks something better is gonna come along. Well, 0:33:12.920 --> 0:33:15.320 that's always the case. Now this is the this is 0:33:15.320 --> 0:33:17.400 the blind Scott that you go to for all of 0:33:17.440 --> 0:33:20.880 your investment advice. Yes, yes, I I spent a lot 0:33:20.920 --> 0:33:23.240 of money on a weed stock that he recommended, which 0:33:23.280 --> 0:33:26.040 is now a penny stock, and he told me how 0:33:26.120 --> 0:33:28.400 much money anytime he tells me, hey, I made a 0:33:28.480 --> 0:33:31.200 hundred grand today as a day traders on the stock mark. 0:33:31.280 --> 0:33:36.720 Yeah bullshit, Yeah, bullshit. So you've listened. You've listened to 0:33:36.800 --> 0:33:39.680 blind Scott for investment purposes, and you've listened to a 0:33:39.760 --> 0:33:42.560 fake dentist for all your real estate advice. That's correct, 0:33:42.560 --> 0:33:44.520 And you want to know why I am close to 0:33:44.560 --> 0:33:49.920 bankrupt not made some of the best decisions there with that, 0:33:50.080 --> 0:33:54.680 all right? More of study slash survey is between pandemics, 0:33:54.800 --> 0:33:59.240 protests and politics and all that's going on in many people. 0:33:59.600 --> 0:34:02.480 Guess how many people say, oh my god, this is 0:34:02.520 --> 0:34:06.320 the worst time ever to be alive and all this stuff. Well, 0:34:06.640 --> 0:34:10.040 not so fast, my friend. According to a study out 0:34:10.040 --> 0:34:13.719 of University of York, here's some positive news. According to 0:34:13.760 --> 0:34:16.799 their calculations, the world as a whole is much more 0:34:16.920 --> 0:34:20.759 peaceful over the last thirty years in comparison to the 0:34:20.880 --> 0:34:24.720 first half of the twentieth century. Now keep in mind 0:34:24.760 --> 0:34:29.080 from nineteen ten to nineteen fifty, Now you had world 0:34:29.080 --> 0:34:33.560 wars of biblical proportions and global The global death rate, though, 0:34:33.600 --> 0:34:39.600 has continued to steadily drop. And yeah, it's it's one 0:34:39.600 --> 0:34:44.240 of those things. It's perspective. It's you watch the news 0:34:44.320 --> 0:34:47.560 and you think everyone's a lunatic and everyone's you know, 0:34:47.920 --> 0:34:52.280 upset about something, and everyone's shooting each other and stabbing 0:34:52.320 --> 0:34:56.719 each other. But the crime rates have gone down. I mean, 0:34:56.719 --> 0:35:00.200 that's that's a reality. But that they're still politicians still 0:35:00.239 --> 0:35:03.120 run elections. Maybe not now, maybe it's all about race, 0:35:03.160 --> 0:35:06.359 but they used to run elections based on, uh, you know, 0:35:06.440 --> 0:35:09.880 we're gonna solve crime, We're gonna stop crime. And crimer 0:35:09.920 --> 0:35:15.160 has been going down many years. Outside of Chicago, I guess, yeah, yeah, 0:35:15.320 --> 0:35:18.279 well there's certain parts of Chicago. It's the Old West there, 0:35:18.280 --> 0:35:20.360 the law of this Old West. All right, So uh, 0:35:20.400 --> 0:35:23.920 this is this is maybe only interesting too to me 0:35:24.000 --> 0:35:26.239 and a handful of other people. But I had a 0:35:26.320 --> 0:35:30.960 boss years ago, Andrew Ashwood, who passed away at pancreatic cancer. 0:35:31.719 --> 0:35:36.120 And the study this is pancreatic cancer, which obviously is 0:35:36.160 --> 0:35:40.880 the worst survival rate among the most common cancers that 0:35:40.920 --> 0:35:44.080 you can get well. Researchers say that is likely to 0:35:44.200 --> 0:35:48.760 change sooner than later because of all of all things 0:35:49.840 --> 0:35:55.440 foot and mouth disease. Apparently they found something in foot 0:35:55.480 --> 0:35:58.600 and mouth disease or it's used to treat it, that 0:35:58.760 --> 0:36:03.839 they can use that at to attack pancreatic cancer. How 0:36:03.920 --> 0:36:07.400 fucking great would that be? That would be amazing. Yeah, 0:36:07.480 --> 0:36:10.040 let's hope that actually is not bullshit and that's real. 0:36:10.160 --> 0:36:12.640 It would be. That would be wonderful. If you go 0:36:12.719 --> 0:36:18.799 down the totem pole of diseases, is that number one 0:36:18.880 --> 0:36:22.960 for you? I think you're looking for a cure from 0:36:22.960 --> 0:36:27.279 Oh well, wow, my mom died of breast cancer, so 0:36:27.360 --> 0:36:30.040 I would go with breast cancer. But I mean if 0:36:30.080 --> 0:36:32.240 any of the cancers, you know, any of those things, 0:36:32.640 --> 0:36:36.960 it's just so brotal And it's like, did I see 0:36:37.000 --> 0:36:41.920 somebody wrote or somebody told me it's cancer? Is the 0:36:42.040 --> 0:36:44.880 body deciding to commit suicide but you've just said you 0:36:44.920 --> 0:36:46.920 don't want to, but the body is trying to kill itself? 0:36:47.000 --> 0:36:52.560 Essentially what cancer is? It's just see I go dementia, Alzheimer's. Yeah, 0:36:52.640 --> 0:36:55.160 that's that's a terrible thing too. Yea. My when my 0:36:55.280 --> 0:36:58.239 grandfather passed away, and see my grandfather back in the day, 0:36:58.239 --> 0:37:01.799 he played hockey into college and then uh fought in 0:37:01.800 --> 0:37:04.680 the World or Crian War. And then when he moved 0:37:04.719 --> 0:37:06.680 out here to l A, he was an l A 0:37:06.760 --> 0:37:09.880 p D officer. But he was tall, he was slim, 0:37:09.960 --> 0:37:12.120 six ft two, six ft three, great shape. He was 0:37:12.160 --> 0:37:15.160 a golfer. And when I was in high school and 0:37:15.200 --> 0:37:17.640 he was diagnosed, I didn't know anything of Alzheimer's at 0:37:17.640 --> 0:37:19.400 the time. And then I couldn't see him for ten 0:37:19.440 --> 0:37:22.600 years because my grandmother, grandmother wouldn't allow us to. And 0:37:22.640 --> 0:37:24.920 when I saw him in his deathbed, I kid you not, Ben, 0:37:25.000 --> 0:37:28.520 he was in the still like pristine physical physical condition. 0:37:29.120 --> 0:37:31.839 Just the mind was gone. It was it was surreal. Yeah, 0:37:31.880 --> 0:37:36.040 you know, it's it's a very maccab question. But we're 0:37:36.080 --> 0:37:38.920 all going to meet our demise. Would you rather have 0:37:39.080 --> 0:37:42.279 your body fall apart but your mind be sharp, or 0:37:42.320 --> 0:37:47.319 your mind fall apart and your body be sharp. That's 0:37:47.320 --> 0:37:52.160 a neither one is good imagine having you know, my 0:37:52.239 --> 0:37:54.960 mom was kind of like this. My mom, she was 0:37:55.000 --> 0:37:57.480 as sharp as attack, as the old line goes. My 0:37:57.560 --> 0:37:59.959 mom right up until the end. She didn't lose anything 0:38:00.040 --> 0:38:04.759 off her fastball, but her body was just crumbling and 0:38:04.840 --> 0:38:07.200 there was nothing she could do, and there was nothing 0:38:07.280 --> 0:38:11.520 we could do, and it was just fucking painful because 0:38:11.560 --> 0:38:14.399 she was still the same sharp woman she had always been. 0:38:15.480 --> 0:38:17.759 But she knew what was happening, and we all knew 0:38:17.760 --> 0:38:20.320 what was happening. But there's like it's like, would you 0:38:20.440 --> 0:38:22.440 rather not know? But you have a great I don't know, 0:38:22.440 --> 0:38:27.120 it's it's really all those mind boggling Yeah, because I 0:38:27.160 --> 0:38:29.719 have friends that work in hospice carries too, and so 0:38:29.960 --> 0:38:34.960 I hear what they have to do, obviously prepping a bed, bathing, um, 0:38:35.000 --> 0:38:37.160 you know, helping them to leave themselves, and they go 0:38:37.280 --> 0:38:40.920 through so many thankless jobs per day. That's a great question. 0:38:41.280 --> 0:38:44.680 One of our old interns of Fox Sports Radio is 0:38:44.719 --> 0:38:49.160 doing that, right, Brianna, Yeah, Brianna, Like, isn't she doing that? 0:38:49.200 --> 0:38:51.600 I think she is. You know, I think this is great. 0:38:51.600 --> 0:38:56.600 I mean it's amazing. Uh give back to people that 0:38:56.920 --> 0:38:59.000 will not even be able to tell you thanks. You know, 0:38:59.120 --> 0:39:02.320 that's true, they're messed up. But that just to finish 0:39:02.360 --> 0:39:06.600 up on that study about the cancer and the possible cure, 0:39:07.000 --> 0:39:10.200 well eventually hopefully cure. They say that they look at 0:39:10.239 --> 0:39:13.280 foot and mouth disease. There's a certain specific type of 0:39:14.160 --> 0:39:21.240 protein that has been discovered in high amounts UH of 0:39:21.680 --> 0:39:25.840 people that have pancreatic cancer and they think they've figured out, 0:39:25.960 --> 0:39:29.320 because of foot and mouth disease, a way to take 0:39:29.400 --> 0:39:32.520 care of that, to attack that, and they think that 0:39:32.560 --> 0:39:36.600 and will obviously lead to much lower death rate. Well, 0:39:37.200 --> 0:39:40.120 if you're questioning your investments, Ben, I think one place 0:39:40.200 --> 0:39:43.920 you can look at as as pharmaceuticals. So you look 0:39:43.960 --> 0:39:46.560 at technologies and you look at drugs that can help 0:39:46.640 --> 0:39:50.640 cure people of pancreatic cancer or anything else that comes 0:39:50.680 --> 0:39:54.200 to light. Of course, the vaccine for the coronavirus um. 0:39:54.280 --> 0:39:57.960 Shift your attention, Ben, I'm just telling you that much. Well, 0:39:58.000 --> 0:40:01.239 I saw they're going to phase three trial in is 0:40:01.239 --> 0:40:04.879 in China for something which is good. That's like, isn't 0:40:04.880 --> 0:40:07.080 that the final phase Phase three? Is it phase three 0:40:07.120 --> 0:40:09.200 or phase four? I have no fucking idea. I just 0:40:09.280 --> 0:40:12.440 sounded like I knew what I was talking about. I 0:40:12.480 --> 0:40:16.680 don't know. I'm not a scientist. So so again, just 0:40:16.719 --> 0:40:20.040 to give again the foot in mouth thing, they've they've 0:40:20.120 --> 0:40:22.600 got something that they use for that that they believe 0:40:22.640 --> 0:40:26.160 will we use for for the other cats. All Right, 0:40:26.200 --> 0:40:30.799 So moving on, Researchers from the University of California Davis say, 0:40:30.800 --> 0:40:35.160 they're investigation of commercially sold avocado oils. Sounds like you're 0:40:35.080 --> 0:40:37.160 probably west of the four or five. You're an avocado 0:40:37.200 --> 0:40:41.000 oil guy shows that at least eighty two of their 0:40:41.000 --> 0:40:46.319 sample samples were stale or watered down with cheaper oils. Yeah. 0:40:46.440 --> 0:40:50.800 The food science experts add that three of the products 0:40:50.840 --> 0:40:54.000 they tested actually contained nearly a hundred percent soybean oil. 0:40:56.680 --> 0:41:00.239 It was being marketed as avocade oil and the those 0:41:00.280 --> 0:41:05.759 were claiming pure or extra version avocado oil and it 0:41:05.880 --> 0:41:11.560 was soybean oil. Cons what a rip off? Yeah, it 0:41:11.600 --> 0:41:13.960 reminds me of that Big Chicken podcast that we did 0:41:14.440 --> 0:41:17.560 from the day and the marketing and people the way 0:41:17.680 --> 0:41:20.359 humans are wired. If you you're told something, even if 0:41:20.360 --> 0:41:23.080 it's bullshit, if somebody tells you it, you're more likely 0:41:23.120 --> 0:41:25.120 to believe it to be true. They have the right words, 0:41:25.320 --> 0:41:29.080 how they're phrase and how they're presented. Yeah, mine tricks. 0:41:29.120 --> 0:41:31.719 All marketing is one mine trick after another. Right. Be 0:41:31.800 --> 0:41:34.200 sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller Show 0:41:34.200 --> 0:41:37.880 weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on Fox 0:41:37.920 --> 0:41:41.200 Sports Radio and the I Heart Radio app. New study 0:41:41.320 --> 0:41:47.280 reveals at sixty six percent increase in gambling activity worldwide. 0:41:48.120 --> 0:41:52.479 Mostly they claim because of the forty million unemployment here 0:41:52.520 --> 0:41:55.160 and around the world. Unemployment is pretty bad, very bad 0:41:55.280 --> 0:41:59.120 financial implications of the coronavirus. So people are turning to 0:41:59.200 --> 0:42:01.799 the casino. I believe it. I believe it. There's one 0:42:02.800 --> 0:42:05.640 I will say, I will probably dip my toes into 0:42:05.719 --> 0:42:09.280 some draftking stock. Then I'm I'm telling you I've invested. 0:42:09.320 --> 0:42:11.759 That's one thing. I did invest in some gambling stock, 0:42:11.840 --> 0:42:14.200 not DraftKings, but I invested in some of the casinos 0:42:14.400 --> 0:42:17.400 because I was betting on the sports books being the 0:42:17.800 --> 0:42:20.400 boom and then of course the industrial complex of American 0:42:20.400 --> 0:42:25.160 sports shutdown this year. But people love sports, and people 0:42:25.200 --> 0:42:28.000 love to bet on sports or anything, and so I 0:42:28.040 --> 0:42:32.120 believe this is gonna be a boom town business. So 0:42:32.239 --> 0:42:36.000 I put some of my investment money into those, uh 0:42:36.120 --> 0:42:38.480 those because there's a fool. I mean the casinos. As 0:42:38.560 --> 0:42:41.520 we've talked about, and I've done monologues on this, and 0:42:41.560 --> 0:42:44.560 it's just anybody who's been to a casino knows it's 0:42:44.600 --> 0:42:50.120 the most fantastic thing from a business perspective, because every 0:42:50.160 --> 0:42:53.400 single person that goes into a casino knows the odds 0:42:53.440 --> 0:42:55.120 are against them that they're gonna walk out of the 0:42:55.160 --> 0:42:58.319 casino with less money than they walked in. They know 0:42:58.400 --> 0:43:02.160 they're gonna lose, they will go in. They still enjoy it. 0:43:02.560 --> 0:43:07.480 They consider it recreational fun and they know they're gonna 0:43:07.520 --> 0:43:09.960 lose in the long run. But it doesn't matter. I'm 0:43:09.960 --> 0:43:12.239 willing to throw my money away and just to have 0:43:12.280 --> 0:43:15.040 a good time. Yeah, the stimulation, and because it's so 0:43:15.160 --> 0:43:19.160 accessible via a cell phone, a laptop, or a PC. 0:43:20.120 --> 0:43:22.239 I don't I don't doubt that study one bit. We 0:43:22.280 --> 0:43:25.360 could have a monster explosion here with football, college and 0:43:25.520 --> 0:43:28.560 NFL seasons right around the corner. That everything converging, right, 0:43:28.600 --> 0:43:31.560 the convergence of everything. A new study shows this is 0:43:31.560 --> 0:43:35.400 about the coronavirus. It shows that herd immunity against the 0:43:35.560 --> 0:43:38.560 COVID nineteen virus can actually be achieved now they say 0:43:38.600 --> 0:43:42.920 at forty three instead of six, which had been projected earlier. 0:43:43.920 --> 0:43:46.239 But the medical cost will still be very high. They say, 0:43:46.280 --> 0:43:51.359 but yeah, oh that's a that's a speculation. I hope 0:43:51.360 --> 0:43:54.360 they're right. That'd be great. Yeah, it's unfortunate because I 0:43:54.400 --> 0:43:58.160 was reading some stuff in New York talking about how 0:43:58.200 --> 0:44:02.279 the protests did not provide any kind of spike in 0:44:02.440 --> 0:44:07.920 coronavirus tests, positive test results, only the only the rallies 0:44:07.920 --> 0:44:11.719 and some of the other things. It's just a coincidence 0:44:11.760 --> 0:44:14.959 that they were burning and pillaging l A and then 0:44:15.600 --> 0:44:18.680 a few weeks later everyone's walking around with the corona. 0:44:18.880 --> 0:44:23.120 But it's not those There's no correlation, Gasca, You're just racist. 0:44:23.160 --> 0:44:25.239 If you think there's a correlation, that's a bad job 0:44:25.280 --> 0:44:28.160 by you. And don't even think that these two things 0:44:28.200 --> 0:44:33.400 could be related. There's no way. Then, all those scientists 0:44:33.440 --> 0:44:36.120 that said it's perfectly okay to go out. As long 0:44:36.160 --> 0:44:38.560 as you say it's a protest, you're gonna be fine. 0:44:39.719 --> 0:44:41.600 I can't believe that that would be wrong. It couldn't 0:44:41.600 --> 0:44:45.839 be wrong. It could not be wrong, not at all. All. Right, 0:44:46.120 --> 0:44:48.120 here we go. In an effort to find a cure 0:44:48.200 --> 0:44:52.240 for the coronavirus pandemic, researchers at Boston University have developed 0:44:52.239 --> 0:44:57.680 a way to fight not only the COVID nineteen, the 0:44:58.440 --> 0:45:01.480 virus behind that, but also really any virus in the 0:45:01.600 --> 0:45:06.200 human body. WHOA how about this? The new technology from 0:45:06.200 --> 0:45:11.560 Boston University uses tiny bits of they say in air quotes, 0:45:11.680 --> 0:45:17.880 bio friendly plastics wrapped in cell membranes to create what 0:45:17.960 --> 0:45:21.359 are essentially fake decoy cell. So here's how it works. 0:45:21.400 --> 0:45:23.000 Let me walk you through this. So they make the 0:45:23.040 --> 0:45:26.480 fake decoy cells out of the bio friendly plastics, and 0:45:26.520 --> 0:45:31.680 these fake cells, uh, they attract the virus particles and 0:45:31.719 --> 0:45:35.880 they divert the virus from attacking the real cells that 0:45:35.920 --> 0:45:37.840 will give you, you know, fuck you up and kill you. 0:45:38.520 --> 0:45:42.319 How great is that? Awesome? That's Oh, this is another one. 0:45:42.360 --> 0:45:44.319 You gotta cheer for this, right raw raw. You gotta 0:45:44.320 --> 0:45:47.560 be Benny bright Side on this one. Yeah, especially because 0:45:47.640 --> 0:45:50.480 think about the thing about every illness that that could 0:45:50.880 --> 0:45:52.759 cancer and all this stuff. Yeah, I mean, we just 0:45:52.800 --> 0:45:55.480 think about when we were kids, because you get chickenpox 0:45:55.560 --> 0:45:58.080 usually as a kid, and then when you age, whether 0:45:58.080 --> 0:46:00.239 you're in your fifties or sixties of seventies, you also 0:46:00.239 --> 0:46:03.640 get shingles or you're susceptible to that too. So if 0:46:03.640 --> 0:46:06.240 you can knock all this stuff out, especially at your youth, 0:46:06.960 --> 0:46:10.239 more power to you. Be awesome. Be great. I would 0:46:10.560 --> 0:46:13.000 I would sign up for that in a heartbeat. A 0:46:13.200 --> 0:46:17.439 recent survey from munster dot com shows that fifty one 0:46:17.640 --> 0:46:21.640 percent of Americans are finding themselves burning out from the stress, 0:46:21.719 --> 0:46:24.839 long hours and lack of boundaries because they're working at home. 0:46:26.280 --> 0:46:28.120 I think it's more than that. I think it's higher 0:46:28.120 --> 0:46:32.440 than well, I have a studio. I actually go into 0:46:32.440 --> 0:46:34.920 a radio studio. I built a professional broadcast student. I 0:46:34.920 --> 0:46:37.080 don't if you know this, guest. I spent a lot 0:46:37.120 --> 0:46:39.279 of money thanks to w e I several years ago. 0:46:39.280 --> 0:46:40.879 I actually paid for it because when they didn't pay 0:46:40.880 --> 0:46:42.239 for it, they's paid me. I used all the money 0:46:42.239 --> 0:46:43.759 I made from w e I to pay for the 0:46:44.040 --> 0:46:46.200 equipment in the studio, which, by the way, let me 0:46:46.200 --> 0:46:49.400 point out again, better equipment than we have at our 0:46:49.440 --> 0:46:54.120 main studio, the mothership. So put that in your pipe 0:46:54.120 --> 0:46:59.840 and smoke at guess gun. I will say, boundary y, 0:47:00.040 --> 0:47:02.520 it's it's it's a little challenging, but I feel like 0:47:02.760 --> 0:47:04.640 I feel that there are more people that want to 0:47:04.680 --> 0:47:08.040 talk or at least go out and socialize more because 0:47:08.080 --> 0:47:13.400 they've been so locked down because of work. Uh yeah, 0:47:13.520 --> 0:47:16.520 Like I feel like it's gotta be some separation, you know. 0:47:16.760 --> 0:47:19.279 And it's like one of our old bosses back in 0:47:19.320 --> 0:47:21.960 the day used to preach, you know, you gotta you 0:47:22.040 --> 0:47:24.880 gotta have family time, you gotta have work time, you 0:47:24.960 --> 0:47:28.040 gotta have you know rest time? You know said you 0:47:28.120 --> 0:47:30.279 gotta have a little bit of balanced life, right, a 0:47:30.280 --> 0:47:33.759 balanced life everything in moderation. I go a little too 0:47:33.840 --> 0:47:36.360 much on the work thing. But I'm talking about this 0:47:36.400 --> 0:47:40.640 while I'm on furlough, so I'm taking I'm taking some 0:47:40.760 --> 0:47:44.680 unpaid time off. Is what is it technically furlough for you? 0:47:44.760 --> 0:47:49.680 Because you're not compensated for this? Yeah, what do you 0:47:49.719 --> 0:47:52.359 call it? I know they said that the deal was 0:47:52.440 --> 0:47:53.800 you got to did you get the same deal? You 0:47:53.840 --> 0:47:57.000 didn't get to know the same deal? Yeah, but the 0:47:57.040 --> 0:48:00.959 honor every everyone making over a certain amount of money 0:48:01.000 --> 0:48:06.480 at I heart had to take several weeks of unpaid 0:48:07.480 --> 0:48:09.880 time off. I don't is that a furloughed? Am I 0:48:09.880 --> 0:48:11.560 calling at the wrong thing? Well? No, but I mean 0:48:11.840 --> 0:48:14.880 for this podcast, it's not technically a furlough. Concerned that 0:48:14.960 --> 0:48:17.440 you don't get camped out for this. But if you 0:48:17.440 --> 0:48:20.640 want to claim furlow, you can also claim unemployment for 0:48:20.680 --> 0:48:22.480 that too, because we have other people that have been 0:48:22.520 --> 0:48:26.080 flowed and they've claimed the unemployment from the state of California. Yeah. 0:48:26.160 --> 0:48:28.880 I don't know how that works. I don't know. But 0:48:29.000 --> 0:48:31.600 for the definition of furlough is to leave of absence, 0:48:31.680 --> 0:48:34.560 especially that's granted to a member of the Armed Services. 0:48:35.080 --> 0:48:36.840 I'm not in the Armed services. No, but you're a 0:48:36.840 --> 0:48:41.479 frontline worker. Yeah, I guess front line of sports radio 0:48:41.480 --> 0:48:44.719 without sports emergency response unit, that's what you're part of. 0:48:44.800 --> 0:48:46.680 I have a card, though I do have we have 0:48:46.760 --> 0:48:49.719 martial law. I have a card. I can go out 0:48:49.760 --> 0:48:52.279 and drive. So let's good alone. I got a radio show, 0:48:52.320 --> 0:48:55.360 the host. I'm doing God's work. I'm driving to the 0:48:55.400 --> 0:48:59.560 transmitter right now to broadcast in the magic radio box. 0:49:00.920 --> 0:49:03.440 Is that? Yeah? We have time for one more? All right? 0:49:04.239 --> 0:49:06.440 Are you? Let me ask you this? Now? What do 0:49:06.440 --> 0:49:09.000 you before I ask you? Are you not the right 0:49:09.040 --> 0:49:13.040 way to phrase it? Um? Which generation do you think 0:49:13.440 --> 0:49:19.040 is feeling the locked down loneliness the most? Well? What's 0:49:19.080 --> 0:49:23.560 the generation below me? Is a Generation Z? Yes? Yeah, 0:49:23.560 --> 0:49:28.319 I'll go Generation Z. You got it right? Congratulations. A 0:49:28.400 --> 0:49:31.720 new study says that Gen Z has the highest level 0:49:31.800 --> 0:49:36.719 of loneliness compared to before the lockdown and all this. 0:49:37.320 --> 0:49:39.840 Why would that be? Like? I would think older people, 0:49:40.239 --> 0:49:44.399 you know, your grandparents, if you still have them, why 0:49:44.480 --> 0:49:46.560 they get most of them get so excited when your 0:49:46.800 --> 0:49:48.960 kids and their grandkids come and see them. You know 0:49:48.960 --> 0:49:51.200 what I mean, Like, like, so you'd think that that 0:49:51.239 --> 0:49:53.880 would be older people will be like I want it, 0:49:53.920 --> 0:49:57.800 But it's the younger genera. They're tougher. The older people 0:49:57.840 --> 0:50:01.200 are tougher. They've been through wars, they've been through the sixties, 0:50:01.920 --> 0:50:04.120 Like they know what chaos is all about. This is 0:50:04.160 --> 0:50:06.000 nothing at least from the people that I've talked to 0:50:06.080 --> 0:50:09.200 and that we've interviewed. This this pales in comparison to 0:50:09.280 --> 0:50:12.000 what happened three or four decades ago. I just think 0:50:12.000 --> 0:50:14.279 people were tougher than And you also look at the 0:50:14.280 --> 0:50:17.719 activity on social media nowadays. Generation Z is all over 0:50:17.800 --> 0:50:20.360 social media. I mean they use that as an escape 0:50:20.360 --> 0:50:22.120 and they use that for an attention the at tension 0:50:22.160 --> 0:50:25.320 that they're not getting either at home or their immediate 0:50:26.080 --> 0:50:30.319 circle that they're in. And I think that's the case. Yeah, yeah, 0:50:30.600 --> 0:50:33.680 it makes sense. Uh yeah, I don't know. When I 0:50:33.719 --> 0:50:37.040 was a kid, I didn't have many hardcore friends, and 0:50:37.080 --> 0:50:39.720 I you know, I take a tennis ball and play 0:50:39.760 --> 0:50:42.919 against the garage door at the house for hours. Yeah, 0:50:42.960 --> 0:50:44.760 but look at you now, Look you have a boatload 0:50:44.800 --> 0:50:47.520 of friends that you can't even attend to. What do 0:50:47.560 --> 0:50:49.520 you what are you saying do you have a lot 0:50:49.520 --> 0:50:51.839 more friends now, especially with the way that you are 0:50:51.960 --> 0:50:54.480 in in media that you talked to, You talk to 0:50:54.520 --> 0:50:57.080 people all across the world. I know, yeah, I know 0:50:57.160 --> 0:50:59.640 I have friend well, yeah I have friends and things 0:50:59.719 --> 0:51:01.279 like yeah. But I'm saying when I was a kid, 0:51:01.320 --> 0:51:03.319 like growing up, I you know, I'd sit and watch 0:51:03.400 --> 0:51:08.719 cartoons for hours and cheeseball TV shows. You know, the 0:51:08.760 --> 0:51:11.080 one thing you weren't doing is you weren't watching a 0:51:11.120 --> 0:51:15.319 TV show. We're looking at a statue and feeling offended. No, no, 0:51:15.440 --> 0:51:17.279 I was no. You know normally when I grew up, 0:51:17.320 --> 0:51:18.920 I'm old. When I grew up, you had to like 0:51:18.960 --> 0:51:20.760 have a vote to have a statue remove. You didn't 0:51:20.800 --> 0:51:23.480 just decide to do it yourself and have vigilante justice. 0:51:23.520 --> 0:51:26.800 But you know that's uh. We evolve as a society 0:51:26.880 --> 0:51:30.520 gainst them. We evolve as a society. Clearly canceled, you 0:51:30.719 --> 0:51:37.480 must be canceled. What a world great? Uh my, most 0:51:37.760 --> 0:51:39.279 the most amazing part of that, to me, the eye 0:51:39.280 --> 0:51:41.319 opening part is how many people are in They are 0:51:41.360 --> 0:51:44.680 down with it. They're down with it, and every once 0:51:44.680 --> 0:51:46.160 in a while comes back and buy seeing the ass 0:51:46.160 --> 0:51:48.799 like Jimmy Kimmel and Howard Stern and those guys trying 0:51:48.800 --> 0:51:51.680 to be woke mcwoke and uh, suddenly some of their 0:51:51.680 --> 0:51:55.040 old skeletons came out. Everyone's got skeletons. But see, here's 0:51:55.040 --> 0:51:56.799 the problem though, what about on the other side, where 0:51:56.800 --> 0:52:00.359 people want to respond to it and prevent it, then 0:52:00.400 --> 0:52:03.279 they also have recourse that happens their way, whether it's 0:52:03.320 --> 0:52:05.759 in their immediate circle with family and friends, or even 0:52:05.800 --> 0:52:10.160 their professional life with their employers. What do you mean specifically, 0:52:10.280 --> 0:52:12.320 what do you mean examples? I see people talk about 0:52:12.320 --> 0:52:14.239 this all the time and social media that they are 0:52:14.320 --> 0:52:18.239 either let go or fired because they're conservative or they 0:52:18.239 --> 0:52:20.839 don't agree with certain people in the way that they're 0:52:20.880 --> 0:52:24.560 treating or the way that they're taking down statues or 0:52:24.800 --> 0:52:28.680 graffiting a building or setting up camp somewhere in the 0:52:28.680 --> 0:52:30.840 middle of the city in Seattle. I see people that 0:52:30.920 --> 0:52:37.360 are getting pushed back professionally because they're opposed to that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:52:37.440 --> 0:52:40.040 that's part of the Orwellian thought police, right, that's the 0:52:40.040 --> 0:52:43.040 the whole bs that reference that I've made a million. 0:52:43.080 --> 0:52:46.080 I feel like I've used the Orwellian thought police more 0:52:47.160 --> 0:52:53.680 George Orwell in the last month than I ever did before. 0:52:53.760 --> 0:52:57.800 But just read the book, which was published in nineteen 0:52:57.920 --> 0:53:01.520 forty nine. George Orwell died in nine team fifty. George L. 0:53:01.760 --> 0:53:04.400 George Orwell has been dead for seventy years. And the 0:53:04.440 --> 0:53:07.920 things he wrote before he died, that was not a 0:53:07.960 --> 0:53:10.719 true book. It was a fictional account of what was 0:53:10.760 --> 0:53:15.320 gonna happen. Wasn't nonfiction. And it's become nonfiction. It become nonfiction. 0:53:15.440 --> 0:53:18.560 But every record it is a quote from from the 0:53:19.320 --> 0:53:22.719 book George George Orwell. Every record has been destroyed or falsified, 0:53:22.719 --> 0:53:25.800 every book rewritten, every picture repainted, every statue in street 0:53:25.800 --> 0:53:29.600 building has been renamed, every date has been altered, and 0:53:29.640 --> 0:53:33.200 the process is continuing, day by day, and minute by 0:53:33.320 --> 0:53:38.040 minute history has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present 0:53:38.360 --> 0:53:42.279 in which the party is always right. And see, I 0:53:42.280 --> 0:53:44.600 think it's such a lazy take to say, well, if 0:53:44.600 --> 0:53:47.319 you want to be educated, go read a book. Oh yeah, 0:53:47.320 --> 0:53:51.640 I'll go to a museum. Saving for the museum. But 0:53:51.680 --> 0:53:53.920 there's tons of ways that you can educate yourself, not 0:53:53.960 --> 0:53:55.200 only in a book, but you could do it on 0:53:55.239 --> 0:53:57.160 social media, you could do it on television. You could 0:53:57.160 --> 0:53:59.560 do it a museum, you could do it a gallery. Uh, 0:53:59.640 --> 0:54:01.560 you could do in an arts center, Like, there's tons 0:54:01.560 --> 0:54:04.239 of ways to do that, and then to bury that 0:54:04.360 --> 0:54:07.880 kind of a product that has made it defeats the purpose. 0:54:08.040 --> 0:54:10.520 You're not gonna go bury yourself into tons of books 0:54:10.520 --> 0:54:14.360 and just be some kind of you know, scholar overnight. 0:54:14.480 --> 0:54:16.800 So anyway that you can get out there and expose 0:54:16.840 --> 0:54:20.040 yourself to to whatever kind of pieces out there in history, 0:54:20.160 --> 0:54:22.360 whatever may be, there's no way to be taking the 0:54:22.360 --> 0:54:25.600 stuff down't no way you can justify it. Yeah, well, 0:54:25.640 --> 0:54:29.000 these ragamuffins. So my favorite part is the punks and 0:54:29.000 --> 0:54:32.360 the losers that like they're tearing down statues of people 0:54:32.440 --> 0:54:35.279 that work to freeze place. Yes, I mean, I mean 0:54:35.760 --> 0:54:38.680 you are such. Are you just announcing what a brainless 0:54:38.760 --> 0:54:42.120 varment you are? If your goal is for you know, 0:54:42.400 --> 0:54:45.919 and racism and you're tearing down an Abraham Lincoln statue, 0:54:46.640 --> 0:54:50.520 what the funk are you doing? Yeah? I saw earlier 0:54:50.520 --> 0:54:54.200 this week a U. S. Senator from Wisconsin who actually 0:54:54.239 --> 0:54:57.280 decided to join in a in a protest in parade. 0:54:58.280 --> 0:55:01.239 Ben he was taking a picture of himself in this 0:55:01.280 --> 0:55:04.279 parade and he proceeded to get his ass kicked. He's 0:55:04.320 --> 0:55:08.719 a Democratic senator from Wisconsin. And he got his ass kicked. 0:55:08.719 --> 0:55:11.120 He was eaten by his own people alive. I just 0:55:11.480 --> 0:55:14.080 I don't get it. Man. Well, look you saw in 0:55:14.200 --> 0:55:17.040 d C they named across from the White House, they 0:55:17.239 --> 0:55:22.680 named a square for the movement, and then, uh, they 0:55:22.760 --> 0:55:25.480 tried I think they're still trying to put an autonomous 0:55:25.560 --> 0:55:29.360 zone right in d C. And then in in Washington State, 0:55:29.440 --> 0:55:32.400 he had a politician who was all supporting the movement 0:55:32.480 --> 0:55:35.440 and the cause and all that, and they eventually started 0:55:35.440 --> 0:55:41.040 tagging her house. Oh yeah, the Seattle mayor mayor. Yeah, no, 0:55:41.200 --> 0:55:43.200 I was some city outside say, but it was in 0:55:43.200 --> 0:55:46.160 in Washington State anyway. All right, Uh that a gascar 0:55:46.239 --> 0:55:47.440 and we put the baby to bed. We still have 0:55:47.480 --> 0:55:51.919 another podcast on Sunday. We've got the the mail bag. 0:55:52.200 --> 0:55:54.399 Good questions, good questions in the mail bag. I'm looking 0:55:54.400 --> 0:55:57.000 forward to that. But there it is. Have a great day. 0:55:57.040 --> 0:56:00.440 We are on all the different platforms again. Follow me 0:56:00.560 --> 0:56:02.920 cameo dot com.

So you want to consummate the cameo relationship. 0:56:34.680 --> 0:56:36.279 I'm a little worried about that. I don't know if 0:56:36.320 --> 0:56:38.919 the first invite er offerer will be from a mail 0:56:39.000 --> 0:56:42.520 or female, but I can imagine the kind of what 0:56:42.600 --> 0:56:45.480 if a guy, like what if our gay fans calls 0:56:45.560 --> 0:56:48.040 up and or says, hey, guesscan can you do the 0:56:48.040 --> 0:56:51.399 podcast with your shirt off? Would you do that? Uh? Well, yeah, 0:56:51.440 --> 0:56:53.400 I can do it here because there's nobody here, not 0:56:53.520 --> 0:56:55.360 the I mean the cameo. Somebody said I want a 0:56:55.400 --> 0:56:58.080 cameo of you, you know, reading the phone book with 0:56:58.160 --> 0:57:00.799 your shirt off. Would you do it? Some might ask, 0:57:00.880 --> 0:57:03.759 what's the phone book? Yeah, of course I can. I 0:57:03.800 --> 0:57:05.560 can certainly do that. So you would do that? So 0:57:05.600 --> 0:57:08.239 you're willing to do some some light nudity. It's not 0:57:08.360 --> 0:57:11.040 really light nudity. There's no difference from between me going 0:57:11.080 --> 0:57:13.000 to the beach and you listen, the way we're going 0:57:13.040 --> 0:57:15.719 with these masks. Next step is the burka. The next 0:57:15.760 --> 0:57:18.880 step is that's the next step up. Okay, so that's 0:57:19.200 --> 0:57:22.320 wait till Dr Fauci says, I think to stop the 0:57:22.480 --> 0:57:27.040 spread of life, we need the burka that's coming. That's coming. Well, 0:57:27.120 --> 0:57:29.200 leave it up to your governor to decide on what 0:57:29.200 --> 0:57:30.960 we're wearing. How about I don't have a governor. I 0:57:31.040 --> 0:57:33.000 have a king. I do not have a governor. I 0:57:33.040 --> 0:57:35.840 have a king. Anyway, all right, you want to promote 0:57:35.880 --> 0:57:41.560 anything or it's just cameo Gascon David Gascon, and all right, listen, 0:57:41.600 --> 0:57:43.160 have a great rest of your day. I got another 0:57:43.200 --> 0:57:47.160 podcast coming your way with the mail Bag on Sunday. 0:57:47.600 --> 0:57:49.080 Enjoy the rest of your time.
