1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:04,960
Speaker 1: Kabooms. If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:08,559
Speaker 1: minutes a week was enough, think again. He's the last

3
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 1: remnants of the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness.

4
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 1: He treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as

5
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 1: the rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow. The Clearinghouse

6
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 1: of Hot takes break free for something special. The Fifth

00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 1: But you already knew that I was a little ahead

11
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: of my time. Today is April fools Day, which is

12
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 1: ironic because I became the fool by promoting April fools

13
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: Day when it wasn't even April fools Day. But now

14
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 1: I checked the calendar app on my phone. Today is

15
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: the day. Today is the day, so I am correct.

16
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: Today's the day, Dame man. It has been an awesome

17
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 1: week into the weekend. Here Lakers are winning, Dodgers are winning, Clippers,

18
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: the Raiders are going to dominate the NFL Draft. And

19
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 1: are you going to go to the NFL Draft in

20
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: late Aprils this month? In Kansas City, isn't it? Yes, Yes,

21
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 1: the Heartland right there. How do you say? I like,

22
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: how you say Kansas City? I quote the play by

23
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 1: play guy for the Chiefs. It's Cansa City, your old producer,

24
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: wrong button, Bob. But he told me, he said, Hey,

25
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: if they want to send me there, I'm gonna tell

26
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: him that I can't go due to family obligations. He's like,

27
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 1: send you instead. Yeah, I'm sure. I'm sure that that'll

28
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: that'll happen, of course. And then but anybody that goes

29
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: to kans City, there's a rule. And I don't know

30
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: if don Or Scott told you about this, but they

31
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: told me that there's a rule. Anyone from the company,

32
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 1: any from iHeart Fox Sports Radio that goes to Kansas City,

33
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 1: they have to eat at the Landing the chicken fingers.

34
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 1: They It's required, or else you've got to pay for

35
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: your whole trip. So now, if you go to Kansas City,

36
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: you gotta have the Ben Mallar chicken fingers at the Landing,

37
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 1: which is in Liberty, Missouri, right next to it's actually

38
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 1: near Arrowhead and where the Chiefs play and the Royals

39
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: at their stadium. So there's that. But the the number

40
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,799
Speaker 1: one barbecue plays and I at all the big ones

41
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: when I was in Kansas City years ago, and I

42
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 1: gotta get back to Kansas City too. It's on my

43
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,679
Speaker 1: list of places I gotta go back and hang out.

44
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 1: But it's a it's a cool place to visit. Good food,

45
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 1: good people. But Kansas City they have this. It used

46
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: to be called Oklahoma Joe's. It's now Kansas City Joes.

47
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 1: It's at a gas station, so it's actually at a

48
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: working gas station, and there is always a line out

49
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: the door. It's like there we have Teitos tacos, where

50
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: there's a line here in La Well, then that's their

51
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: Teitos tacos. It's nuts and the z Man sandwich the

52
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 1: single greatest thing I have ever had. I should put

53
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 1: a word in here, food wise, in my mouth, in

54
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: my belly, next thing I know. I just saw this

55
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: white thing flying at my face and the ze Mans

56
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: much amazing, amazing, so good taste like a touchdown in

57
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: your mouth. Oh it was not. It was a game

58
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 1: winning touchdown. It was a Grand Slam. It was. It

59
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 1: was insane. So um. But anyway, so we got a

60
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: lot of things to get to on the Saturday podcast,

61
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: and we'll we'll get the partee started here with We've

62
00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: got a hunger strike, ending hunger strike ending, flashing lights

63
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: backscratcher pop goes the culture and scientifically, and we will

64
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: start with this. Every once in a while, a protest works, Danny.

65
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 1: Every once in a while a protest, it's it's successful.

66
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 1: It doesn't happen all the time. Right away, Are they

67
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: going to lower the prices for our vending machine? No? No, no, no,

68
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 1: no no. But for the last year on the Overnight Show,

69
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: I made several references on the on the show that's

70
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: got my name on it, and it was get up,

71
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: get down. There's a Mallard movement in this town. You know.

72
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: It was that kind of thing, you know, no justice,

73
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: no peace. It was hey, hey, ho ho, the Angel

74
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: pr staff has to go, you know that whole thing.

75
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: I was denied access media access to cover the Angels

76
00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: last season. Oh I remember you ranting about it. Yeah,

77
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: So I went on a few rants and you know,

78
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 1: what do we want credentials? When do we want them? Now?

79
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,039
Speaker 1: You know that kind of thing. I all, I have

80
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: all the protest chance down, I know them more. Um So, anyway,

81
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,679
Speaker 1: this season I was asked by the great Leader Lap

82
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: who takes care of a lot of that stuff. Lee's like, hey,

83
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: do you need me to take care of anything? And

84
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: I said, yeah, you know, let's let's see what's up

85
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,839
Speaker 1: in Anaheim. You know, let's see if they turned me

86
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: down two years in a row, those Hey loosum And

87
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 1: so he sent a request in and turn out the

88
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,039
Speaker 1: Angel said, Okay, you're good. I think shoe Hey did it.

89
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 1: He's definitely a man of the people. That's a thing

90
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: I don't understand because last night check maybe maybe he's

91
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 1: been traded, and it's like, maybe that's the big story today.

92
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 1: You know that he got traded on April Fool's Day.

93
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 1: But Otani's selling team, the argument I was told was

94
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: there's no room for you because of all the Japanese media,

95
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: because of Shohei Otani, and there's hardly any room in

96
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: the media area for the Angels because they got rid

97
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 1: of all that years ago. And so I was like, okay, whatever.

98
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,279
Speaker 1: But the main reason I wanted to go out there

99
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: last year in twenty twenty two is I had known

100
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 1: Joe Madden when he was a coach with the Angels

101
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,679
Speaker 1: and he was back and I wanted to. I wanted

102
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 1: to talk to Madden and catch up with him. He's

103
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,039
Speaker 1: long gone, but anyway, I'm back in the good graces

104
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 1: of the Angels. So the protest worked. It was a

105
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: bloodless activity, Danny. There was no blood that was drawn.

106
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: It was It was not a full insurrection or a

107
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,239
Speaker 1: mutiny or anything like that. And I liked it better

108
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:39,039
Speaker 1: when you talked full on shit about the Angels. Oh,

109
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,159
Speaker 1: I'll still talk shit about the Angels, but I will

110
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: not talk shit about their pr staff at all. Wonderful people.

111
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 1: And uh now there is one complaint I have, not

112
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 1: only for the Angels but the Dodgers. And this will

113
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 1: likely be seen as petty and you listing will say, oh, Mallard,

114
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: you're just being a tight wide, You're being a cheapass.

115
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 1: So the other day I had a double header. I

116
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,559
Speaker 1: wanted to take care of a lot of this stuff.

117
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 1: When you're in the in the media and you're lucky

118
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: enough to go to these games, you have to pick

119
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 1: up your credentials Otherwise if you don't pick them up

120
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: in advance, it becomes a big, big shit show. So

121
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: I was like, all right, I'll pick these up early,

122
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 1: and I got up I only got a few hours

123
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: to sleep. I think this was on Wednesday, you know,

124
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: I think it was on Tuesday. I don't even know

125
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: what day it was. It's back on Tuesday. So I

126
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: got up early. I drove to Dodger Stadium and the

127
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: Dodgers were not playing that day, and I picked up

128
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: my my past and I asked the young lady in

129
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: the pr booth, I said, can you can you give me?

130
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: Is there a lanyard? And she kind of rudely said no,

131
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: we don't provide lane And I said, okay, Well that's

132
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: that's that's odd. I've been been here for twenty five

133
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: years or whatever it is. I've never had a problem

134
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: getting one from the Dodge. But I guess now you

135
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: times are tough in these you know, economic times we

136
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: live in, and so okay. So I then get back

137
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: and I'm literally at Dodger Stadium for five minutes. I

138
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 1: pull into the parking lot in the in the lot,

139
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: it's uh, I figured what a lot. It was like

140
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: a lot seven or something. I pull in, I'm out done,

141
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: go down to Anai. Takes me an hour and a

142
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: half to get the Anaheim from Dodger Stadium rush hour

143
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: I'm surprised I got there that fast. So I go,

144
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: Angels are actually playing the Dodgers in an exhibition, so whatever,

145
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 1: I go up, say, hey, I'm so and so you

146
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: know I'm here to pick up my pass. Who exactly?

147
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 1: So you're the guy that ripped the shit out of us? Yeah? No,

148
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: so I think I was the guy was totally cool whatever.

149
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: It gave me the pass. So I said, okay, cool,

150
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: Can I get a lanyard? No, we don't provide lanyards,

151
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: So neither the Dodgers or the Angels will provide a lanyard.

152
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: Keep in mind, these passes you have to wear it

153
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: all time because of Major League Baseball security, you need

154
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 1: a lanyard for the passes. So like, what the fuck

155
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: is that? So then I tech my friend Bob Bob

156
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: Fesco in Kansas City. I said, hey, Bob, there's apparently

157
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: a Major League Baseball policy to not provide lanyards. And

158
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 1: I was like, it was just it's it's a nuisance, Dan,

159
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: It's an annoyance, right, It's one of those things in life.

160
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,319
Speaker 1: How hard is it to get a box of lanyards?

161
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: So this is an inconvenience, and you know it's I

162
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: realize it's insignificant. I get that. I'm not naive too.

163
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 1: It's it's just a minor inconvenience, one of those small

164
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: annoyances of life. So I understand that part of it.

165
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: So I had text my friend Bob. I go on

166
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 1: to show every every Thursday, we yap. And so about

167
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,319
Speaker 1: a half hour later, my friend Bob text me back.

168
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: He says, I just picked up my Royals pass. I

169
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 1: have a lanyard. The Royals provide a lanyard. So we

170
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,720
Speaker 1: have determined the Royals are more of a big League

171
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: team than the Dodgers of the Angels. They're more the

172
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: media friendly. And that is a full endorsement of the

173
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 1: Royals because my friend Bob did not have that annoyance.

174
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: He did not have that irritation. It's like a mosquito bite.

175
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: He did not have that because the Royals, who fucking suck,

176
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 1: took care of their report. So the Royals are on

177
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: the road. No, no, the Royals are having their problems

178
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: on the road. Royals having their problems on the road.

179
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 1: I'm Ben Malick, Great, what did you do? Did you

180
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: go back to your old stash of passes and find

181
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 1: some lanyards that fit. I think that's probably what you did,

182
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 1: because cheap to order new ones off of Amazon. No.

183
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: But but Bob did tell me that Amazon has a

184
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: good deal on Neil lanyards that if I wanted one,

185
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 1: But yeah, I had, I had to go back. I

186
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 1: have a box where I'd throw a lot of these

187
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: things from years past, and so I think I took

188
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: a acre pass when Kobe was on Shack. We're on

189
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,599
Speaker 1: the team, and I took the lanyard off that and

190
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: repurpose it. Anybody on the Clippers is a half of

191
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,199
Speaker 1: what Kobe Bryant is, which is Okay, I'm just saying,

192
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,439
Speaker 1: is it really that hard? You're a multi billion dollar

193
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: baseball team. You're giving an item out that needs a lanyard?

194
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 1: Am I a dick? Yeah? Let me know and email

195
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 1: me or post something on let me know if I'm

196
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: a dick in dating. Okay, So I did all that.

197
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: There were no flashing lights, but there are plenty of

198
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 1: flashing lights out there in the world. Any plenty of

199
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 1: flashing lights. I drove up to Oxnard, California last Saturday

200
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: because I wanted to surprise my wife. He's oldest kid

201
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 1: with a new stereo in his car. I am single

202
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: handedly keeping FM and AM radio alive. Ben Good, we

203
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: need that. Yeah. His first car is a two thousand

204
00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 1: and nine Corolla. He just started college. The radio inside

205
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 1: his car, though, was a piece of crap. But he

206
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 1: was nice enough to let me borrow his car. When

207
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,839
Speaker 1: I was in between car dealerships just a few months back.

208
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 1: I thought to myself, you know, a nice gesture would

209
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: be to put a little sound system in his car.

210
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 1: So I took his car. So he thinks we're just

211
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 1: taking it to the dealership to get the tires adjusted. Instead,

212
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 1: I made an appointment with Best Spy and I drove

213
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 1: it up there. I got a nice Sony stereo flat

214
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 1: screen with some nice JBL speakers in the doors. Bloom.

215
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, his sounds in the car are

216
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: going to be legit boomy. How many miles are on me?

217
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: I'm curious how many miles, oh Man on his Corolla?

218
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 1: Two hundred and fourteen thousand miles. How many miles can

219
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: those things go before they completely die? Three hundred thousand miles. Yeah,

220
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: if you take care of it and you get it maintenanced. Yeah,

221
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:02,959
Speaker 1: he still has a little bit of life. Left in it.

222
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 1: But I'm figured, even though this car probably doesn't have

223
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: very many years left, why not have some nicer speakers

224
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 1: in there and Apple car Play, which is a must nowadays.

225
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: If you don't have Apple car Play, I don't even

226
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 1: know how you're alive right now. I don't have I

227
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,719
Speaker 1: don't have a Well, why is it so good? Do

228
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: you connect it to your iPhone and everything is out

229
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: of touch of the screen right in front of you,

230
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: and everything is voice controlled, And it's just it's just

231
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 1: super convenient for your music and everything else media, especially

232
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 1: when you listen to podcasts while you drive and things

233
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 1: like that. So now he has that capability, which is

234
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 1: really nice. But I had to kill some time because

235
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 1: I dropped the car off at the Best Buy installation bay.

236
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 1: It's an eleven fifteen am appointment and the guy tells

237
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: me gonna need to come back in about two and

238
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 1: a half three hours. So I grab my backpack and

239
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: I am on foot in Oxnard. Man, I'm walking down

240
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: Rose Avenue. I used to live there back in the

241
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,079
Speaker 1: days to program radio in that area back in the day,

242
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: so I know my way around that city. Um So

243
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 1: the first thing I do is go score some drugs.

244
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: I'm kidding. So you went and worked out where the

245
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys work out. That's the training camp, home of

246
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboy. That's Jerry's world on the West coast.

247
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 1: Come on, oh, you're not kiddy man. I there were

248
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: some nights where I was inside the Spearmint Rhino with

249
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 1: Emmett Smith, bunch of hookers and cocaine. So years later

250
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: when I saw Emmett, we were like, hey, Spearmint Rhino

251
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 1: at broadcast. Do you remember that? I do? Yeah, yeah,

252
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 1: and that's why he was looking at me funny. When

253
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: we saw him on Radio Row, He's like, I know

254
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 1: you now, Danny Way, Just for the for the record,

255
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 1: you were the job morant of your day. You party

256
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: of like John Moran of the Memphis Christon. Yes, except

257
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 1: it was a pellet gun I had in my waistband. Yes,

258
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: and it was not fifty thousand large. It was monopoly money,

259
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: but it was close and it was you had some

260
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: Mickey Mouse dollars mixed in there, right. Yeah. Yeah. Now

261
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 1: I had to figure out how to kill some time.

262
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 1: I did have some work to do. Well, let me

263
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 1: find a Starbucks. I can get onto their WiFi and

264
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: you know, handle this business. I have left for editing.

265
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: As I find the Starbucks band which is about two

266
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 1: full blocks away from the best Buy, I noticed that

267
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: there's a shiny Walmart in the corner, not just a Walmart,

268
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: a shiny Walmart, and the parking lot is jam packed,

269
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 1: and I was like, well, this must be a good Walmart.

270
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 1: Now I don't know about you. Well I do know

271
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 1: about you. You don't mind the lights inside Walmart, which

272
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 1: bothered me and a lot of other people. You're like,

273
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: my wife's the same way. I like a deal. I

274
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: enjoy a deal, and you get the most bang for

275
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: your bucket Walmart. And I also enjoy people watching, even

276
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 1: though I'm an introvert and I don't really like talking

277
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 1: to strangers. I like walking around and looking at the freaks.

278
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 1: It's like I'm on Fremont Street in Vague or Atlantic City,

279
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 1: or New Orleans or South Beach at a Walmart. It's amazing,

280
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 1: and these people live amongst us, Danny, It's fascinating, and

281
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: they likely look at me and say, look at that fatass.

282
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: He lives amongst us. Also, we all have the same thought.

283
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 1: We're like, Okay, these are these amazing Piet pull. How

284
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: weird they look. It was great to see Pooh. You

285
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 1: know there's been some weather phenomenon happening in our state

286
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 1: over the past couple of months. This won't surprise you.

287
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: The power went off. Oh yes, now waiting, it's kind

288
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: of flickering, so it's the lights are flashing. I'm wondering

289
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 1: if like a backup generation is gonna go on. Probably

290
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 1: not the best place to be inside a ghetto fied

291
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:11,640
Speaker 1: Walmart with no lights on. That would not go so well, shit,

292
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 1: are people gonna start looting this place? Yeah, that's what

293
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,640
Speaker 1: I was gonna ask you. Did people start grabbing shit?

294
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 1: Because they do it when the lights are on. I

295
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 1: can only imagine with the lights flickering and lights off

296
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,479
Speaker 1: and emergency lights, they would they would have a field day.

297
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: The two minutes felt like ten minutes. Finally the lights

298
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,159
Speaker 1: come back on, but it's it's kind of like a

299
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 1: dim light, so I'm guessing it was a backup generator.

300
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 1: This is the first time I can actually spend a

301
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,360
Speaker 1: half hour inside a Walmart and not feel sick when

302
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 1: I leave. Oh, come on, Danny, don't be a lightweight

303
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: day and he's just lights? Who the hell cares come on.

304
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: So I went to the baby section. I found an

305
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 1: infant sized Dodger baby shirt, and that was my big

306
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 1: purchase inside that Walmart. When I got to the front,

307
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: the girl at the cash register, she said, I hope

308
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: the lights come back on all the way because I

309
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 1: think a couple of people already ran out at the

310
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 1: front with some merchandise. Now, let the record show I'd

311
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: paid for the baby Dodgers shirt that I got. But yeah,

312
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: it was my probably my most favorite experience inside of

313
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: Walmart so far in my life. Now, how much baby

314
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: stuff have you purchased, Danny, Because you've got for those.

315
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 1: I get email from people, give me an update. We're

316
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 1: not get an update on the little Danny j We're

317
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 1: not getting update on that. She is now twenty two

318
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: weeks pregnant, so we're over the halfway mark. Okay, the

319
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 1: baby is due at the very end of July, coming up.

320
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: That's acts. It seems like far away, but it'll be

321
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 1: here before you know it. Yeah, they always say think

322
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,239
Speaker 1: ahead when you buy the clothes because everybody gives you

323
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 1: like the newborn clothes, the newborn clothes, but the baby

324
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: grows out of those imediately, so you only need a

325
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 1: few of those outfits. So everything I've been buying right

326
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 1: now are outfits that are like eighteen months and older. Okay,

327
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: how long do they stay in those? Untill about kindergarten?

328
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 1: Baby Huey pret modern pregnancy, like there were times like

329
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: women were pregnant sometimes and we still see these stories

330
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 1: like they don't even know they're pregnant then like the

331
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 1: kid will end up all right. I don't see how

332
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:33,640
Speaker 1: that is even possible not know that there's something swimming

333
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:38,159
Speaker 1: around inside your stomach, like the baby kicks and moves

334
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: all the time. You'd have to be a retard. That

335
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 1: was Danny g Radio. That was not me. I was daying. Okay,

336
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: you'd have to, let me rephrase, You'd have to be

337
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 1: very special to not know that there's something inside of

338
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 1: you growing. Yeah, I would tend to agree with you.

339
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: And maybe I'm wrong on this, But as I understand

340
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,719
Speaker 1: and my recollection Danny, is that many of the people,

341
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:07,119
Speaker 1: the ladies that have had this happen to them, let's

342
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 1: just say they're a little disheveled. They don't necessarily take

343
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 1: care of themselves, and they they've enjoyed a few hearty

344
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: meals over the years. Okay, what do they think that

345
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 1: that's gas inside their stomachs moving around and kicking them? Oh,

346
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:25,400
Speaker 1: I need some pepto. I just got kicked. They must

347
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 1: have horrendous gas before they got pregnant. That's the only

348
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 1: logical conclusion one could make that that's that's what happened.

349
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: So yeah, because now we're at the stage where we

350
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: can finally feel the baby's kick from the outside. So

351
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: if I touch your stomach, I can feel the baby kick. Tibo,

352
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 1: slap me around a little bit. You don't know you're

353
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,880
Speaker 1: getting kicked by a little baby inside of you. Yeah,

354
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: that's pretty wild. I agree with you, all right. At

355
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: turning the page show we got a little time less,

356
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 1: so we got a lot to get to it a

357
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 1: little time, which is amazing. I always think, oh, man,

358
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 1: we're not gonna have enough stuff for the podcast, Danny,

359
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 1: and then we always end up having too much stuff.

360
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 1: Why is that, Danny? Why can't we not just have

361
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 1: just enough stuff? Because one of the most interesting men

362
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 1: in the world. Yeah, sure, all right, So the backscratcher,

363
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 1: the backscratcher. You scratch our back, we scratch your back.

393
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: happened there. He owes twenty six million dollars. You imagined

394
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: owing twenty six million dollars. Man, I'm stressed out and

00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 1: I only owe a couple of thousand dollars to credit cards.

396
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. And the way this works, he's spilling his

Speaker 1: four hundred ninety two dollars will go towards the twenty

403

Speaker 1: six million, So that'll go a long way to help

404
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 1: out that. The people that are owed money, what do

405
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,520

Speaker 1: part of those class action lawsuits and you end up

408
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:53,119

412
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 1: the ban on a bunch of sporting terms that we use. Danny.

413
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: They're say they're they're disrespectful sporting terms. Among them, they're

414
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: all animals sporting terms. They include worm burner. They want

415
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 1: that's a tennis term. I believe worm burner. They want

416
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,439
Speaker 1: to get rid of that. Uh, there's all a badminton

417
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 1: players should never describe a shuttle hit hit out of

418
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 1: play as a dead bird their offinitive up. Oh, I

419
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 1: guess wormburner is a golf term. I thought it was

420
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:42,880
Speaker 1: a tenn term, So no worm burner. They also here's

421
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: one that will warm you up. They want it was

422
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,920
Speaker 1: a shuttlecock one. The uh, well, the bad mitten one.

423
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 1: They say players should never describe a shuttle cock hit

424
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,639
Speaker 1: out of play as a dead bird needs to be

425
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 1: called dead cock. Well, yeah, you could say there goes

426
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 1: the cock. You could say that cockadoodle. Du that's a drop. No,

427
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,880
Speaker 1: it's not, No, it is not. H And at tennis,

428
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 1: the hot dog shot used by Roger Federer and others,

429
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: where the balls hit between the player's legs, they called

430
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 1: the hot dog shot. Peter says it should be called

431
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:22,120
Speaker 1: the vegan hot dog. Well, I'm not. I swear to God,

432
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,159
Speaker 1: i am not. This is an actual story. Uh. And

433
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: they say that the bulls eye in darts this is

434
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,120
Speaker 1: an onion story. It is not, they say. They say

435
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 1: the bulls eye and darts should be renamed, and they

436
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: are worried that anyone thinks it refers to an actual bull. Yeah.

437
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 1: This is the campaign from the People for the Ethical

438
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 1: Treatment of Animals. Peter list of sporting terms they want overhauled.

439
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,399
Speaker 1: This is this is wonderful, this is so. This is

440
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: why nobody takes them seriously. All right, this is why

441
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 1: nobody takes seriously seriously ahead of a boat race. Just recently,

442
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 1: Peter also wrote to a British rowing outfit calling for

443
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,719
Speaker 1: an end to the obscure rowing term catch a crab.

444
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 1: They want that. They want that going away. Like when

445
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 1: COVID and when we were on Southern California locked Down.

446
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:30,159
Speaker 1: We got that list of approved sports and badminton was

447
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 1: on there, but tennis wasn't. It was so stupid. The

448
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: whole list was dumb. That's what this reminds me of

449
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:41,919
Speaker 1: boxing terms that are on the list. Peter suggested they

450
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: get rid of rabbit punches. You can't have a rabbit

451
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:50,680
Speaker 1: punch in boxing, and spinebreaker. They do not want spinebreaker

452
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 1: to be final. You know, they want nothing to do

453
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: with that. They said. Since throwing a rabbit punch is

454
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 1: already banned in boxing and other fightings sports, why not

455
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 1: retire the phrase? They claim? And I mean, this is

456
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: so stupid. And there you go, Peter pet I don't

457
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: know if it's on your list of allowed meats, but

458
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: eat a dick. Well, it turns out that Twitter's boss,

459
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: Elon Musk, is a full of dogshit, not literally, of course,

460
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: but it's been revealed that Twitter actually does have a

461
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 1: secret VIP list that Elon Musk has said he wants

462
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 1: to treat everyone equal. Well, not so fast, my friend.

463
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 1: It turns out that there is a cool kids club

464
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 1: at Twitter. I wonder if Joe Rogan's on that. You

465
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 1: think Joe Rogan made the cut. I don't know. I

466
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: have no idea. But there is a VIP list. This

467
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 1: report claims Twitter has this list. There's around thirty five

468
00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 1: VIP users. The tweets of these individs jewels get a

469
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 1: boost from the algorithm if they drop. So it's the

470
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 1: way to do it. I'd heard years ago from someone

471
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 1: that a lot of certain sportscasters who worked at a

472
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: fledgling cable network in Connecticut, Danny were put in to

473
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: this wild and crazy algorithm where they ended up picking

474
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 1: up three, four or five, six, seven hundred thousand followers

475
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 1: automatically just having their name in this very special list.

476
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 1: And so so many people that worked at this small

477
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: cable outfit in Connecticut ended up with all these followers

478
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 1: because they were in on Twitter early the company they

479
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 1: worked for and they took care of them. Speaking of that,

480
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 1: did you see that Elon Musk has passed Barack Obama?

481
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 1: He is the most followed person on Twitter. Now, I

482
00:29:56,240 --> 00:30:00,080
Speaker 1: wonder how that happened. Did you see how he he

483
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: sent an email to all his employees saying you got

484
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: to show up in person at your job now. He

485
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 1: does not want people working from home anymore, no more.

486
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 1: Good luck on that. Good luck on that. Although tech

487
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 1: has cut back a lot, Facebook and the tech industry,

488
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 1: it's no longer the boom times in tech. Now they've

489
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: got to approve, they've got to pacify Wall Street. So

490
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 1: good luck on that. I'm assuming Covino and rich on

491
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 1: your show, Danny that you work on that they talked

492
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: about the serial sperm donor did that come up in

493
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 1: conversation this week? That didn't come up? No? Really, No, Oh,

494
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 1: that's a wild story. This guy has fathered five hundred

495
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 1: and fifty kids. Yeah, I read this story pretty creepy. Yeah.

496
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 1: This guy's a musician. He's a Dutch musician and one

497
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 1: of the all time great masturbaters of our time. He's

498
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 1: a master and just a master better around five kids.

499
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 1: He's forty one years old. He's donated sperm to at

500
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:13,880
Speaker 1: least thirteen clinics, including eleven in the Netherlands. He is blacklisted.

501
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 1: He's been blacklisted for six years because he's he's fathered.

502
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: According to the Times of London, he's fathered one hundred

503
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:25,840
Speaker 1: and two kids in the Netherlands and the guide he

504
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: lives in Kenya. Now he lives in Kenya. But they're

505
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 1: worried about incests because all these these kids are gonna

506
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: grow up and then they're gonna have kids, and they're

507
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 1: gonna start hooking up and they're not gonna realize they're

508
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 1: hooking up with their brother or their sister or their

509
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 1: half brother half sister. That's pretty pretty crazy, man, Yeah,

510
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: makes it creepy. How many times do you think he's

Speaker 1: donated the U the tartar sauce to get to that

512
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: level five hundred and fifty. How many you think you

513
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 1: think he's gone three hundred times, two hundred times. I

514
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: think he's only gone like fifteen times. Will you say

515
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 1: to your new girlfriend, hey, baby, and it turns out

00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,720

Speaker 1: AI use my voice, and then we just keep doing

533
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 1: the show and I won't be around, but there'll be

534
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 1: an automatic version of me or an audio recreation of

535
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 1: my voice. Our last one on pop goes to culture

536
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 1: and we'll have to push We're never gonna get rid

537
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 1: of you. We'll push back the scientifically. Why don't we

538
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,479
Speaker 1: do that on the Sunday podcast? Is that good for you?

539
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 1: I think that Yeah, that works. I'll have a little

540
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 1: time on Sunday before we get to the mail bag.

541
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 1: So this comes from the art world. They have determined

542
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 1: how famous painters back in the day we're able to

543
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 1: create these works of art that and protect them from

544
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 1: wrinkling in humidity. And they've determined that Leonardo da Vinci,

545
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:04,160
Speaker 1: among others, added something that we still have to this day.

546
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 1: We still use these a lot in the kitchen. Added

547
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:11,800
Speaker 1: this to oil paintings. And the experts studied the effects

548
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:15,839
Speaker 1: of adding these this item, and it turns out the

549
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:20,920
Speaker 1: technique helped overcome issues with humidity, wrinkling and yellowing. That

550
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:29,239
Speaker 1: item danny egg yolks. So Leonardo da Vinci figured out

551
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:33,959
Speaker 1: that by adding egg yolks it would it would work.

552
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:38,360
Speaker 1: Wonders for the painting. That's that's wild, that's in the

553
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 1: fifteen fifteen hundreds. What did he do? Did he put

554
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: it on the brush, mix it in the paint, put

555
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 1: it on the palette. I'm not sure exactly what he did.

556
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 1: I don't think they know for sure what he did,

557
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: but said adding egg yolk. Has found that it provided

558
00:34:55,280 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 1: stiff paints with strong imposto, being able to layer it

559
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,720
Speaker 1: on thickly and prevented wrinkling on the surface. And try

560
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:10,120
Speaker 1: he discovered the water uptake from human environments such as

561
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 1: where Da Vinci lived, can be suppressed with the egg

562
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 1: proteins formed a they formed a thin layer around the

563
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 1: particles of the paint pigment. So all right, crazy, I

564
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:27,800
Speaker 1: wonder how he figured that out. You think he figured

565
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,320
Speaker 1: it out on his own, or is it possible, Danny,

566
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:35,839
Speaker 1: that alien creatures helped him out. Doo doo doo doo

567
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 1: doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo.

00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 1: news stories. I take an AP wire story and I

589
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,560
Speaker 1: would eat This is an email before text message. So

590
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,040
Speaker 1: I would take an AP wire story of a trade

591
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 1: and then I copy and I cut the names out

592
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:57,720
Speaker 1: of the players that were traded. I insert much bigger names.

593
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 1: I would then hoppy and paste the story in my email.

594
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 1: I would send it to people in the radio becausiness.
