As we alluviate the weekend away, 12 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 1: the weekend does begin. This the Friday Podcast, a guest 13 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 1: free podcast that David Gascon, who's in here, decided, you know, 14 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: we do not need any kind of person to talk to. 15 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: Usually on Fridays we bring somebody in here, Fred of ours. 16 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: I guess we ran out of friends apparently, But we 17 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: do this podcast eight days a week, as we said, 18 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: in four hours or not enough. So guest Con as 19 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 1: the executive producer of the Fifth Hour Podcast. So what's 20 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: the kind of walking me through the mindset here because 21 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: we know that content is king, just like Vince McMahon, right, 22 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: that's the key. W W E stas content is king, 23 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: right and all that stuff. So, uh, was this a 24 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: bold calculated decision by you to say, you know, we've 25 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: had a fair decent run of people that have come 26 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: in here, so no more you need to put your 27 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: foot down and say that's it. No, I don't think 28 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,559 Speaker 1: it was that. I just think it was an opportunity 29 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: for us to, uh to mix up our our location 30 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 1: like a good picture, right, you want to go inside 31 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: and out, up and down the zone and then change 32 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: speeds a little bit. And I think we can do that, 33 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: especially since uh we got some wild times and wild times. 34 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about. It's just been 35 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: more than the same. Every day is the same, Some 36 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: crazy crap happens. The next day, another crazy thing happens. 37 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: Half the people think they're right, the other half think 38 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: they're right. Rince wash, repeat, but next But unlike in 39 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: our lifetimes, this is the first time that we've experienced 40 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: sports being canceled because athletes are canceling this. That's so 41 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: that's something March. I've seen sports canceled twice this year. 42 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 1: Let them lets I don't want to play, I'll go. 43 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: I don't care. Don't play. It doesn't affect my life 44 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: at all. In fact, I was telling I was telling 45 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: you or somebody else here that when I prepare for 46 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 1: the show and I'm getting ready, I'm looking for things 47 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,079 Speaker 1: to talk about. I usually we I want to watch 48 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: the games and see if anything happens there that I 49 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: feel like it's, you know, good talker on radio. But 50 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: now if there's no games, I can get to put 51 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: the baby to bed early. I'm good. I mean that 52 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: makes my life actually easier, so I will actually have 53 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: an easier time preparing for my job if they don't play. 54 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 1: It's just fascinating a network. And I need you to 55 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: explain this to me because and you know this being 56 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: in a press box a Major League Baseball games, is 57 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: that typically sports writers, when they write a story on 58 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: the game of the day that they're at, they don't 59 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: write when the game ends. They're writing it inning by 60 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: inning or happening by happening, and then they make their 61 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: conclusions and their final assessments and their final judgments after 62 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: non innings is played. Why are we not doing that 63 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: when it comes to the social unrest that we're having 64 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: in today's world, like, why are we having jump to 65 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: conclusion before information, before all the events, before all the 66 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: questions are even answered, Because that is good for the ratings, 67 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: it's good for social media. You know. The answer I 68 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: don't multibillion dollar industries and teams that are ultimately gold 69 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: number one is to take care of yourself and the 70 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 1: bottom line. But in there, see, they have this neurosis 71 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: and professional sports where they think that this is the 72 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:11,119 Speaker 1: path to salvation that they by by doing these actions 73 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: here and preaching because there's one thing I know you 74 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: want when you go watch a game, is you want 75 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: to be preached to and be told that you're racist 76 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: or you don't know what you know, you know what's 77 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: going on. So, uh, these these leaks and they know 78 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: they they have been mesmerized. My theory is they've been 79 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: mesmerized first of all by social media, which, as we 80 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: have talked about many times, is not reality, right, it's 81 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: not reality. It's the matrix. But it's so almighty and 82 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: all powerful in the eyes of these knitwits in positions 83 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 1: of power and sports that they think that is the 84 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: barometer and as we talked about several months ago, that 85 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: study that came out this year from I think it 86 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: was Pew that said that about ten of people on 87 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: UH like a platform like Twitter, are responsible for eight 88 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: of the content created by UH the adults in the 89 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: U s. It's a very small percentage of people that 90 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,919 Speaker 1: are actually out there. So but that doesn't matter because 91 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 1: the people that run these sports leagues and the pr people, 92 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: UH My theory is they see the social media reaction, 93 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: what's trading was not trending, and they shut it down. 94 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: People just like this week the other day, the hockey 95 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: played in basketball didn't play, and I, you know, I 96 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: I liked it. I was watching the Bruins game. They 97 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: got smoked, they got pig roasted by the It was 98 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 1: like Hawaiian luau by the Tampa Bay Lightning, and I 99 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: was like, wow, it's good to watch a game. These 100 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 1: guys actually showed up to work. And then the mob 101 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: on social media, I can't believe you played? How dare you? 102 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 1: And so then, of course, because they reacted to the 103 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: mob and thinking that there are you know, millions of 104 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: people outraged that the hockey league was playing. Of course 105 00:05:54,760 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: it's not true, and so they genuflected to the online mob. 106 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: It is like the matrix, do you take the red 107 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: pill or the blue pill pill? And just keeps going up. 108 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: But that's that's why they're worried about social media cloud. 109 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: They think they're right. The great thing about this and 110 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 1: if you're if you're someone's like sitting on the outside, 111 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: you're outside the ring and you're watching, You're like, wow, 112 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: you're you're grading the fight, and you're like, wait a minute. Here, 113 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 1: these guys think they're winning the fight and they're actually 114 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 1: losing the fight, and they're not bright enough to figure 115 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: out that that's not reality. And and the reason I 116 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: say that, look at the ratings here, which is the 117 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: ultimate report card, the health check right the thermometer on 118 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: to see if you you've got an illness or something 119 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: like that. And it's not going well. The ratings are 120 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: continue to climb. The NBA's down since twelve is down, 121 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: but just this year, since they came back and we 122 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: were talking, oh man, my sports come back. Everyone's gonna 123 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: be watching. I mean, this is gonna be amazing, right. 124 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 1: People are so desperate for content. Uh, and we're mistaken. 125 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: We were mistaken. It's incorec that's incorrect. I mean people 126 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: have figured out, you know, they figured out they don't 127 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: need it, or those that love it are like, I'm 128 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: not gonna watch it because I don't need the you know, 129 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: repercussions of the social activists that have hijacked American sport. 130 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: And the other thing about this guest guy, I'm getting 131 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: long winded here. I'm doing like a monologue all of 132 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: a sudden, but it's I'm just rambling. But here's the thing, Like, 133 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: how do you walk out of this? Like what's at 134 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 1: some point there will be an epiphany, there will be 135 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: a come to Jesus moment, and the people that run 136 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: sports gonna they're gonna crunch the numbers that being counters 137 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: will get in and they will realize, holy fuck, what 138 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: have we done? And then how do you get out 139 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: of it? Like do you welcome back to military and 140 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: the police and hugging is all? We were just kidding 141 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: about all that, and but everything is good now, Like 142 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to be wide ranging and you know, 143 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: multifaceted changes. They're gonna have to because it because of 144 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: the damage that's being done right now in the landscape 145 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: of professional and college sports. To some degree awesome, but 146 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: mostly professional. You know what this makes me think of, 147 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: to use an analogy, is it makes me think of 148 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: of a gambler who's not really in tune with how 149 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: to gamble or how to pick teams that just tails 150 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: someone blindly. Because I do think some positives have come 151 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 1: out of this here and stuff in terms of I 152 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: think it was the Cults on Thursday registered every one 153 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: on their team to vote. So I think those things 154 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: are great. I think those things are important because obviously, 155 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: when you don't have the majority of people in the 156 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 1: United States voting in your general elections and your local elections, 157 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 1: like that's a problem because, like you said, we've talked 158 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: about this numerous times, like here in California, we got 159 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: idiots that are voting to increase our taxes on gas, 160 00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: Like what the fund is wrong with people? But I've 161 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: that's important. I think obviously it's important to get people involved. Well, 162 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 1: but here's the thing on that even that is disingenuous. 163 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: And see that's what that is, people's one thing. But 164 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 1: the problem is is that now you're gonna have them 165 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:18,959 Speaker 1: tail a political alliance just because the way No, I 166 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: mean that, that's why you know, I take all this 167 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 1: with a grand sault. Yeah, you know, voting is great. 168 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: Everyone should vote. It's wonderful. You should do it right, 169 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: you know whatever we have a right to. You can't 170 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: vote in every country and all that. I totally get 171 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: you should vote, But it's disingenuous because when I see 172 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: vote on the back of an NBA jersey, they're not 173 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: They don't want you to vote for Donald Trump. They 174 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: want you to vote for Joe Biden. They and they assume, See, 175 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: this is the problem I had with it. They assume 176 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: that this group think this kool aid think. If they 177 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: tell people their fan based to vote, that they're just 178 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: automatically gonna be blind sheep and lemmings and vote for 179 00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: who they want to vote for. So it's implo II 180 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 1: that they get people to vote that no one would 181 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: possibly vote for Donald Trump. It's pretty that part of it. 182 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: I find amusing that they think, and maybe they're right. 183 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: Maybe they're right. People are just dumb. And you know, 184 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 1: it's as far as the gambling thing you were talking about, 185 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 1: it's the term is a square. That's what they call 186 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: in the gambling right in gambling world in Vegas. If 187 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: you're a square, you're average. You're unsophisticated, and you pretty 188 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:27,079 Speaker 1: much make your decisions based on you're easily influenced by 189 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 1: manipulation by the media or celebrities who tell you something, Uh, 190 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna win this fight. Well he said 191 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: he's gonna win the fight. I'm gonna better. Or you 192 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: have a hunch, better, better, bunch, right, that kind of thing. 193 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: And so the the bookmaker has the huge advantage. And 194 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: and they love the square. They love the square because 195 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: that's who you make your money on when you're running 196 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: a sports book. Is the average, the low information a 197 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 1: sports fan. But you know, they don't want if you're 198 00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: a sharp and you actually have the information. They hate 199 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: people like that that actually have have the information and 200 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: get get all the you know, the latest info and 201 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,719 Speaker 1: are fully educated and all. They don't like that. That's 202 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: because that's real power. And that's the problem I have 203 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: is that you can you can register as many people 204 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: as you like, and I think that's really important. But 205 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: the other thing is that if you want to take 206 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: all of this an additional step forward is that not 207 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: only the people obviously that are in this country that 208 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: aren't working at the elite level like a professional athlete. 209 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 1: But you gotta get the professional athletes educated too. And 210 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: that's the other thing that's that's lost in all of 211 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: this is that you can talk about, you know, voting 212 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: for for one political party or another. You can vote 213 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 1: for a governor, you can vote for a mayor, you 214 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: can vote for a city councilman. But if you have 215 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: no idea what's going on, and you're just blinding like 216 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: going political alliance like right down red or right down blue, 217 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: then and you're doing everybody a disservice. And it's sucking 218 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: brutal because yeah, I mean, how many of these guys 219 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 1: are are activated in that kind of a realm or 220 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: or even educated that kind of capacity either, you know, 221 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: I mean, you don't get guys that are are going 222 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: to Duke and Notre Dame and all these major universities 223 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: of Stanford to cal your USC that are like this 224 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: on on this level. You know, like the reality is 225 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 1: these guys have spent a year maybe two years in 226 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: college and what are they doing. They're taking electives? You know. Well, 227 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: ab I mean the other thing about that, see, that's 228 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: always the Pandora's box, right, because get educated. Well, half 229 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: the people think if you're voting one way, you're educated. 230 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 1: The other half think, if you vote this way, you're educated. 231 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,599 Speaker 1: You know what he's like, what has educated me? And 232 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,079 Speaker 1: it means you vote for who I want you to 233 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: vote for. You know, it's is which is? But But 234 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: I mean, the thing about the manipulation is fascinating because 235 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: it really just depends, I guess, on what you watch. 236 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: I have a family member who watches CNN NonStop, and uh, 237 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: you know I I'll go over or sometimes in the 238 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: It's on all the time, and they react to everything, 239 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 1: and I'm I just have to bite my tongue because 240 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 1: I say, hey, there's a video on on the Internet 241 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: that disproves what it was just said there on Twitter. 242 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: I saw it the other day. I can't. You can't 243 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: say that because they're they're totally brainwashed by what they're watching, 244 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 1: the mesmerizing power of the boob tube. It's weird, and 245 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm I'm. I feel like there's a 246 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: lot of people, even people that we work with, are 247 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: pretty much right down the middle. Like I, I don't 248 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 1: vote on one alliance or the other. I kind of 249 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: look at both ends of the spectrum and I go 250 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: with what's best for me and then what's best for 251 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: the community at the time. But yeah, I'm not stuck 252 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: and I'm not aligned to anybody because the reality is 253 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: these guys are all in it for themselves. And we 254 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: have people that go into these political offices that are 255 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: civil servants and then they come out wealthy as shit. 256 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, that is the easiest path. That you 257 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: don't make a lot as a politician, but you make 258 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: your money once you're done in politics. Although I think 259 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 1: some of these people, how long has Nancy Pelosi been 260 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: in um DC politics? Yeah, so she must be making 261 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: money as she's doing politics. And what was the uh 262 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: I think we might have talked about it here. What 263 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: was the story? Somewhere along the way, there was a 264 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: guy that was, uh, like a secret service guy that 265 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: flew around with the vice president. Remember this story. I 266 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 1: don't know if I talked about it with you where 267 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: I heard it, but there's a legendary story. This guy 268 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: was like a secret service guy protecting either the vice 269 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: president or some high ranking senators, and he just listened 270 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: on the plane, the private planes when they were flying 271 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: around and they would discuss, you know, hey, we're gonna 272 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: build this big, massive you know, shopping center here, which 273 00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: will increase property values in this kind of the chef 274 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: old part of town. You know, so and so we're 275 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: gonna give approval on that. And so he then took 276 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: that information and would invest and became like super wealthy 277 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: based on just listening to politicians discussed what they were 278 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: planning on doing, just having to have you know, his 279 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: ears open on the plane, because that's how that's how 280 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: much influence you as far as the economy is concerned, 281 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: and they have on this. Yeah, insider trading right now? Yeah, exactly, exactly, 282 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: just but now here's is it insider trading if it 283 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 1: wasn't directed to you and you're stepping over here, you know, 284 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: that's the whole. Yeah, I don't know. But see going 285 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: back to to your original question about about guests as 286 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: I think, yes, yes, no, I don't believe. I think 287 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: I like having people. I like to hang out. We 288 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: do the electric boogaloo and we hang out. We talked 289 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: for thirty minutes. I think that's fun. I loved having 290 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: all our my old radio friends like hacks On, Tony 291 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: Bruno and Mike North and Lee and all these people 292 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: come in here. I love that. Yeah, I guess I've 293 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: run out Jerry Callahan, I've run out of radio friends apparently, 294 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: although I did have somebody that I was thinking about 295 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: getting on. But I think you can get a big 296 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: name in here guests, gut you know, get a big 297 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: podcast number. We get we get a really big name 298 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: in here. The downloads to go through the roof man, 299 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: because a lot of people are podcast snobs and only 300 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: listen to interviews and they don't want to hear chatter. 301 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: They don't want to hear conversation like this, but they 302 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: want they do the hustle if they see a big 303 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: name on a podcast. But well, if that was the case, 304 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: then why don't you have guests on your on your 305 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: radio show Money through Friday? Because I was told early 306 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: on the the time and to call their driven show 307 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: and as a programmer, director told me so, Pett, the 308 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: reason I hired you is because you've you can do 309 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 1: a show. You don't need guests. That's a crutch. I 310 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: was like, all right, all right, whatever you say, and 311 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: uh yeah, and I don't don't give you. I don't. 312 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: I think guests are usually pretty bad. But I think 313 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: on the podcast, I like once a week, I think 314 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: it's all right, and people I like or whatever, I 315 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 1: think it's a yeah. But but oftentimes my my problem, 316 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: this was my issue when I did day parts, like 317 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 1: during the day with guests, is I felt like a 318 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 1: lot of them were so guarded, like the people that 319 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 1: worked in sports, because they didn't want to say anything 320 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:20,919 Speaker 1: to upset anyone that it was just a waste of 321 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: time you'd ask a question. I remember, for example, in 322 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: the early days of Fox Sports Radio, I think it 323 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: was about five years in, maybe a little later than that. Uh, 324 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: we had Mike Montgomery on former yeah, but he was 325 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: coaching the Golden State Warriors at the time and not 326 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: we had him every week. And not only was Mike 327 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: Montgomery on, he was terrible because the Warriors sucked, and 328 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 1: you know, we were on a big station in San 329 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,199 Speaker 1: Francisco at the time and that was the Mike Montgomery 330 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: Show to get NBA information. But he didn't want to 331 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: say anything because you know, you don't want to get 332 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: in trouble, and the team was terrible, so she couldn't 333 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: talk about the team. So it just became an exercise 334 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,160 Speaker 1: in futility. Now, one guy that was really good, although 335 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: not intentionally good, was Randy Moss. When Randy Moss played 336 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 1: for the Raiders, he had a deal with Fox Sports Radio. 337 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: He did not talk to any other media the Randy 338 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: Moss Show, which was on Chris Meyers Show, and I 339 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 1: happened to be on that show for a stretch, and 340 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: so we had Randy Moss on every week, and he 341 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 1: he boycotted the media in the Bay Area. He was 342 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: upset with some things that had been written, so he 343 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 1: wouldn't talk to any of the local reporters in in 344 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,719 Speaker 1: the Bay Area, in San Francisco and all that, right, 345 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: So the only place he would talk was our show. 346 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:42,439 Speaker 1: And I figured out after a couple of weeks with 347 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: Randy that he and we knew he wasn't happy. But 348 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 1: if you asked him kind of a leading question, he 349 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:53,199 Speaker 1: would take de bait like, hey, you know, Randy, at 350 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:56,239 Speaker 1: the time, Michael vick was the big star for the Falcons, right, 351 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 1: and they hey, Randy, you know you know what thinking 352 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 1: about Michael Vick. You know, the Falcon's possibly going down, 353 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: And he would he would he would answer, and that 354 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: would create headlines because he would say, I love to 355 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: play with Michael VICKO. So that's that kind of thing. Well, 356 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 1: now that we're here, yes, we're here all united. What 357 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: brings us together? The podcast, that's what brings us together. 358 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 1: Amazing audio content. We do the hokey pokey. You put 359 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: your right foot in, you take your right foot out, 360 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 1: you put your right foot in, you shake it all about, 361 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 1: you do the hokey poke Are you doing the hokey pokey? 362 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: And you turn yourself around. That's what it's all about. 363 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 1: When I was a kid, I used to go to 364 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: the the local skating rink and they with my cousins 365 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: before they moved away the Isoplex and no I lived 366 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: in Orange. I live in the OC behind the Orange Curtain. 367 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 1: But I remember they used to do the hokey poke 368 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: and I was a fat kid, and I didn't really 369 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: know how to skate that well, so I'd fall down 370 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: all the time and it was a big nightmare. So 371 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: always dreaded when they said it's we're gonna do the 372 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:02,199 Speaker 1: hokey pokey. I always I tried to like waddle and 373 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: skate away so I wouldn't have to be out on 374 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 1: the rink when they were doing that, because I embarrassed myself. 375 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: I want to embarrass myself, fat kid falling down trying 376 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:11,679 Speaker 1: to put his right foot out and I couldn't even 377 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,439 Speaker 1: stay in on my left foot. So what are you 378 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: doing well? And now several years later and three hundred 379 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:20,199 Speaker 1: pounds shed, you can do that now, yes, and not 380 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: eating and having you send me food porn while I'm 381 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: not eating. So it's quite a friend over there. What 382 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: were you getting to? You said, now that we're here, 383 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: I interrupted you for the hokey pot No, it was 384 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 1: a good segue because you mentioning our youth.

It's not 547 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: it's not the people you hang out with, the white 548 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: collar crowd. It is the working class morning, noon, and night. 549 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: Those are the people that have their lunch pail the 550 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 1: show up, just like I have my lunch pail when 551 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: I do the show late at night. That's amazing because 552 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 1: if we're talking about lunch pails and work and blue 553 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: collar like I do most of the work on this 554 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: podcast for Ben Maller, that isn't like the the editing 555 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 1: of the booking, the audio, the commute, the stress that 556 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: I have to endure. Well, this is like off days 557 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 1: to just come in here for you yet service restaurant 558 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 1: because you didn't want to drive down the street in 559 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: Beverly Hills. All right. Yes, when you go to a 560 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: Broadway show, yes on Broadway, Yes, you look at the marquis. Yes. 561 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: And if the person's names above the marquis, that means 562 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: that they are the star of the show. Yes, And 563 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 1: if they are below the marquis. That means they are not. 564 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: Now is your name above or below the mark? Let's 565 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: do this little exercise. Go ahead, I'll wait. My name 566 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: is not on the market at all. So that's even worse. 567 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: It is even worse. That's even worse. It's just a 568 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: testament to who you are as a leader and lack 569 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 1: of team player. That's that's a little bit difference. Well, 570 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 1: I think I should be committed because I know you're 571 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 1: having a connection fit over there and west of the 572 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 1: four oh five, and you're convincing and bitching and all that. Um. 573 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 1: But before you continue having the outrage of a pamper 574 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 1: toddler denied a toy, let me remind you that when 575 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 1: we created this podcast back in the September, uh, you know, 576 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: it's been been about a year now. September I think 577 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 1: September nine is the first day that we launched the Sucker. Yeah. 578 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 1: So when I was putting the podcast together with management, 579 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 1: the great management at Fox Sports Radio and all that, 580 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: I was putting all this together. Um, I recall, if 581 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 1: I if I remember correctly, that you know, there were 582 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 1: people lined up around the damn building, protesters they wanted 583 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: to work on the on the show, and uh, and 584 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 1: I picked you so I should actually, I mean listen, 585 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: that's I could have gone with anyone, and I have this, 586 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 1: you have this unreasonable anger. I mean, there's so many 587 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 1: people that want to be a podcast producer and sidekick, 588 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 1: and you're arrogantly, you know, just unappreciative, spoiled, pample, pampered 589 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: the guy over there. It's a bad job by you. 590 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: I'd like to be well. As as many people have 591 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: pointed out on the email and whatnot, you were born 592 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: on third base, and uh, you don't realize how you 593 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: got there. Well, the the idea is there's no matter 594 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: where you were born, whether it's at home plate and 595 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: at first, second, earth, third, you still got a score. 596 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: That's the bottom line. So people can get this defeat 597 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: used to add it to oh you're holding me back. 598 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 1: Oh man, the man's holding me down. That's holding me down. 599 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: What was me? Yeah? I would never do that. You 600 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: see the door over there. You're free to walk out 601 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 1: at any point here, you are free to walk out, 602 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: and this podcast will continue. It will be no implosion, 603 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: none of that. I don't think you'll have fun. I 604 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 1: don't think you'll have as much fun oh please, I'll 605 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 1: get somebody east of the four oh five in here.

Ryan's pretty pretty good for you. 614 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 1: And then right Burtinger, Yeah, well, Burst Singer is great 615 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 1: because he works hard, he gets his stuff done and 616 00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: all that stuff, and he he really doesn't give a 617 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: crap about anything else. You know, a lot of these 618 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: people get worked up over everything, but he does not. 619 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 1: Speaking of speaking of that, I need to get into 620 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: this story because I think you'll appreciate this. Right. Um, 621 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: When you were a kid, did you have tonsils removed? Yes? 622 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 1: You did? Okay, wisdom teeth too. I don't know about 623 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 1: the wisdom teeth. No, I don't remember. I remember having 624 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 1: the ice cream when I had my tonsils out there. 625 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 1: That was a big thing. That's good my mom sold 626 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: me because I was very scared as a child I 627 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 1: going to the hospital, and she said, don't worry, bet, 628 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: and you can eat as much as you want. And 629 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 1: you tell a fat kid he can eat as much 630 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 1: ice cream as you want, and that your eyes just 631 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 1: lighted up. That was the best thing my mom could 632 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 1: have possibly said. Yeah. Well, the reason why I asked 633 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: that and brought that up was this is that for 634 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: the past six weeks, I've been I've been having headaches 635 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,719 Speaker 1: and and I never get headaches. And I got him 636 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: in a centralized area and one of our coworkers here 637 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 1: actually had a really traumatic experience with headaches that call 638 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: under then. So yes, yes, So needless to say, I was, 639 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 1: you know, a little alarmed, and you know, you go 640 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,480 Speaker 1: down the dark web of the internet and you start 641 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: self medicating. It ain't good because you can never look 642 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 1: at web md because you always you have A you 643 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: have cancer, and be you're gonna die, yes, and usually 644 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,839 Speaker 1: it's B before A, but it doesn't matter. Yeah, but 645 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 1: it's like, what did you tell if you have a 646 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,879 Speaker 1: cough all of a sudden, right, that's a problem. If 647 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 1: you have a call for a headache, you've got COVID 648 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 1: or or or you know, or something work. I mean, 649 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 1: so yeah, I mean there's like these indicators, like the 650 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 1: check engine light goes on. But so, so you had headaches. 651 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 1: You didn't mention this. Thanks for you know, I thought 652 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 1: we were friends. I guess we're not. I guess we 653 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 1: are really enemies here. And you didn't say, hey, I 654 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 1: got some headaches here. You know, I would of course 655 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 1: told you just take a couple of adulains. Shut up. 656 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 1: That's what I would have said. That's what happens. You're 657 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 1: not in the market anyways. So I started having headaches. 658 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: But exactly at the same time of having the headaches 659 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 1: is my left ear started popping, like popping on the 660 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: red like when you debored a plane or you're eating 661 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 1: like a rice Crispy treat and it starts cracking. That's 662 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: exactly what's happened to me. So I'm just like, fuck, 663 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 1: you know, like it's in the one centralized area, my 664 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,360 Speaker 1: ears popping. It's been going on for six weeks, and 665 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,919 Speaker 1: the only time it wasn't around was either I want 666 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 1: to woke up early in the morning or I wanted 667 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: to exercise, And so you know, I went to like 668 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:26,439 Speaker 1: a neurologist, and he still couldn't figure it out. And 669 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 1: then a couple of days ago, I went to an 670 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 1: e n T and I told him a story about 671 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 1: when I was a kid. My dad actually told an 672 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,880 Speaker 1: I n T, who couldn't diagnose me for something that 673 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 1: was wrong with me, that I couldn't hear. And so 674 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 1: the e n T like, what the hell are you 675 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: talking about? And he said, well, Dave can't can't hear. 676 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 1: He's not enunciating when he talks. So when I spoke, 677 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: i'd mumbled my words, and sometimes I do it to 678 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,799 Speaker 1: this day. Yes I hear that, because you do you 679 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 1: are mumbled. Yes, So sometimes I do that because when 680 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: I was a child, I couldn't hear. So when I 681 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 1: was like one or yeah, so when I was like 682 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 1: one or two years old, my dad told the e 683 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 1: n T. And the e n T was like, oh, ship, 684 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 1: you know, you taught me something new. Layman taught me something. 685 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 1: So he put tubes in my ears. And typically the 686 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: ear tubes that you get as a kid last a 687 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: couple of months, sometimes maybe like a year. Ben I 688 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 1: went and saw an I n T a couple of 689 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 1: days ago because I thought that's exactly what it was. 690 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:32,279 Speaker 1: I still had a tube in my ear and it 691 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 1: was causing this. Come to find out, I have a 692 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 1: tube still in my ear that's behind behind my ear drum. 693 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:45,359 Speaker 1: That's like causing this major. Yeah, this major. By the way. 694 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 1: Guess fun fact this is we should change the name 695 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,439 Speaker 1: of the podcast to the Tube Podcast because I had 696 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,880 Speaker 1: as a child, I also had tubes in my ears. 697 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: Yeah you had them both. Yes, My my right ear 698 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 1: is my horrible ear. And um, that's the one that 699 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,480 Speaker 1: I probably will lose my hearing and at some point, 700 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 1: but I've not been to the ear doctor in a 701 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,319 Speaker 1: low My wife wants me to go because I I 702 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 1: can't go swimming if I put my head on. I 703 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 1: do go swimming, but I put my head under the water, 704 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 1: I have the whole I just get water just logged 705 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,919 Speaker 1: in there. It's brutal. My hearing in my right ear 706 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 1: is so bad. How bad is you know? I usually 707 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 1: when I go to bed, I have like ear plugs. 708 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: I sleep during the day and there's noise and whatever, 709 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 1: so I sleep with ear plugs in. Yeah, my hearing 710 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 1: and my right ear is so bad. I don't need 711 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 1: to put an ear plug that it's I have my 712 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 1: own ear plug. So yeah, so what are they gonna do. 713 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:46,479 Speaker 1: They gonna operator on your chop open your ear there. Yeah, 714 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 1: So in a few days from now, I gotta go 715 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 1: back to the specialist and he's got to go he's 716 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 1: gonna do a local anesthesia, a little numbing of the 717 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: ear drum, and then he's got to make an incision 718 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 1: with a tool like I find cool to make an incision, 719 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 1: not necessarily a like a knife for like a scalpular, 720 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: but um, you'll have to make an incision and go 721 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:11,279 Speaker 1: behind the ear drum and then remove this. And I 722 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 1: asked him what it looked like and he showed me 723 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 1: it looked like a grain small micro trip chip And 724 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,399 Speaker 1: I'm like that. He's like, yeah, usually it gets flushed out. 725 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,239 Speaker 1: He's like, you're the second person in my career that 726 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 1: has ever had this happened to him. He's the first 727 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 1: person that had that person at the tube in the 728 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 1: ear for like ninety nine months. And I said, well, 729 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:34,239 Speaker 1: I'm a little bit different, Like how long have you 730 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: had And I said since I was like one or two, 731 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:40,760 Speaker 1: so thirty eight years. Actually it's like forty eight years. 732 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 1: But that's like getting your wisdom teeth that like seventy 733 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,319 Speaker 1: you know, like I'm seven years old. Here cut my 734 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 1: wisdom teeth. Yeah, that's pretty wild. And so did they 735 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 1: say that? You know, of course they'll probably say, well, 736 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 1: here are the risk, but here you know you'll be 737 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:54,440 Speaker 1: able to everything will be great, right, you'll be able 738 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,280 Speaker 1: to hear everything, and you know you're hearing. Will they improve? 739 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 1: I can put other tubes in there and no, no no, 740 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:02,879 Speaker 1: no other tubes. But obviously for me, that's the main 741 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 1: concern is like, okay, if that discomfort and pain goes away, 742 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 1: does the headache go away? Because like that's obviously prior 743 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,439 Speaker 1: to number one. So you riddle me this, batman. Yes, 744 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 1: when you say you go into the the ear doctor there, yeah, 745 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 1: all right, was it the throat? Ear? What are they? Okay? 746 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 1: How come they decide why not just ear doctor? How 747 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: come they decided right, not only hear the throat? I 748 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 1: guess it's all connected because yeah, okay, all right, I'm 749 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:37,959 Speaker 1: I'm I'm learning anyway. So um uh, when you say, hey, 750 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:39,960 Speaker 1: this is my concern when I go to the ear doctors, 751 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 1: what do you do for liver? I work in radio, Okay, 752 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 1: I have headphones on twenty five hours a week blasting 753 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 1: in my ears. You and Tom are like infamous Tom Linney. 754 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 1: You guys are infamous for just juicing up the microphone 755 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 1: in the headsets. Well, the reason that I do that 756 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: and the reason Luney does that is we've been in 757 00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 1: the business a long time, and the longer you're in radio, 758 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 1: you to hear. The voice is a musical instrument, and 759 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,799 Speaker 1: you want to hear all of the music. It's like 760 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,920 Speaker 1: going to to to watch a classical to Boston Pops 761 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 1: perform and you want to hear every instrument in the 762 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: Boston Pops as they're doing the thing. And so it's 763 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 1: the same same concept. But the longer we go, the 764 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 1: harder it gets, and you know, you have to turn 765 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 1: it up higher and higher and higher and higher, and 766 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 1: it's uh, it sucks. It sucks that. But a lot 767 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,240 Speaker 1: of guys in radio that Rush Limb Boss had major 768 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: issues with his his although that there might be some 769 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 1: other reasons for that, but he's uh, he's had some 770 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 1: issues there. I've known people in the business that have 771 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:42,719 Speaker 1: had all kinds of issues. I was I told my 772 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 1: I told my wife, I remember we got my dad 773 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 1: a hearing a couple of years ago at Costco. I 774 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,359 Speaker 1: say that we'll be back here in a few years. 775 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 1: Off here, right back here, I'll get one of these 776 00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 1: bad boys. Now. Did you have you ever had your 777 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 1: ears drained before? Uh? Yeah, when I was a kid. Yeah, 778 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 1: because when I had major issues, like I could not 779 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 1: hear when I was a kid. You know, I was 780 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 1: just like you know the signs of a kid. I 781 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,440 Speaker 1: bang your head on the wall and all that, and 782 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:10,440 Speaker 1: you can't really talk right. Yeah, I had all that 783 00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 1: crap when I was a kid. I diated this Italian 784 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:16,760 Speaker 1: girl back in the day and her mom straight from 785 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:20,399 Speaker 1: from Sicily, would have this this treatment that she would 786 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 1: do as like a holistic treatment that she would perform 787 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 1: to clean ears. And what you do is you lay 788 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: on one side of your head and she'd stick this 789 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 1: like it looked like a giant iceberg, but it wasn't 790 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 1: it like a giant wick. She stuck this giant wick 791 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,879 Speaker 1: inside of your ear and then cut a hole around 792 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 1: a styrofoam plastic plate, the starrofoam plate, and put the 793 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:47,359 Speaker 1: plate through the wick. And at the top of the wick, 794 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 1: she'd light it on. Yeah yah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 795 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 1: oh yeah. I didn't really. Yeah, my my wife is 796 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 1: actually done. That's wich. That's a witch. That's a witch move. 797 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 1: I don't think it actually works, but not always feel better. 798 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,040 Speaker 1: It does, man, because she took out so much on 799 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 1: can both ears and so that was one of the 800 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 1: things that my e n T and the neurologist told 801 00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 1: me that. He said, hey, man, you need to stop 802 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 1: cleaning your ears with Q tips because yeah, yeah, yeah 803 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 1: they your doctors hate that. You know what I learned 804 00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 1: little cheat code hydrogen peroxide. Yes, I didn't know that. 805 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:22,400 Speaker 1: What the hell? Yeah, I I have here this, Yeah, 806 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 1: that's a right in my desk here because I have 807 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,040 Speaker 1: such a bad hearing. I have a bottle of I 808 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,760 Speaker 1: don't know why this is brown. Every bottle of hydrogen 809 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: peroxide is brown. The great thing about this is this 810 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:37,600 Speaker 1: this stuff is so cheap hydrogen peroxide. But yeah, and 811 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,880 Speaker 1: I have a little eye dropper.

Yes, it's wild, it is wild. 821 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 1: It is crazy. I had no idea I mean that, 822 00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: I mean just dries it out, so it sounds like 823 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: popcorn right in my ear. It sounds like popcorn. You 824 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm at the movie theater and I'm 825 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 1: getting buttered popcorn. It kind of reminds me of like 826 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:27,240 Speaker 1: when those on those YouTube videos or even like on Twitter, 827 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: when those young kids, those infants can't hear their death 828 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 1: and then they have the e n T come in 829 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 1: with these new like earphones or earpieces and they hear 830 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 1: for the first time. Their eyes like just bloon up, 831 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,320 Speaker 1: like for the first time they can can hear the world. 832 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 1: And so that stuff is awesome. And sometimes they've got 833 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 1: things now with the vision. I know, my man blind 834 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 1: Scott there, he keeps telling me that it's close. They 835 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:55,480 Speaker 1: they've got that technology. They're gonna be able to bring 836 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: people's visions back the ability to see how great would 837 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:01,760 Speaker 1: that be? That they'd be awesome? So that's that's exactly 838 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 1: where I'm at it. It's um see, I'm just hopeful 839 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 1: that you know, because I don't want to go down 840 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 1: the road of an m R I, because m R 841 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 1: I with it. So this is not gonna be like 842 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:12,319 Speaker 1: a meatball surgery and there's gonna be legit surgery. They're 843 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:16,640 Speaker 1: gonna well, it's outpatient surgeries. Just what like the procedural 844 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 1: will take about twenty five minutes. That's not that long. 845 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 1: How much could they funk up in twenty minutes? A lot? 846 00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 1: But let's see, the reason I was asking you that 847 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: was because if you've ever had your ears drained from 848 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 1: a doctor, you gotta be careful because if they use 849 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:33,800 Speaker 1: cold water to shoot it into your ear and drain 850 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 1: it like you immediately go into vertigo. And for people 851 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 1: that don't or they do eat before the visit, you 852 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 1: can throw up. I've had that done where a doctor 853 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 1: would shoot cold water to my ear and immediately I 854 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 1: feel like I'm gonna spin out of control and black out. So, yeah, 855 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:56,440 Speaker 1: you had a recent hearing test where they see what 856 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 1: you're hearing is in each year and all that he's 857 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: gonna do that after him done. Okay, all right, So 858 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:03,880 Speaker 1: but i'd like, my hearing is so bad in my 859 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,759 Speaker 1: right year, I wonder what it is, like, how how 860 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 1: much lower it is? Yeah? You know, yeah, I don't 861 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 1: know what the hearing scale is. I know visions right, 862 00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:14,080 Speaker 1: if you a perfect vision, I don't know what it 863 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:18,000 Speaker 1: isn't hearing but interesting. I'll probably wait till the year 864 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 1: completely falls off and then I'll go in. It's usually 865 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 1: how that works. You don't how about this? Don't do 866 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:25,799 Speaker 1: it in because everything that could go wrong this year 867 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 1: has gone wrong. So well, you actually started this last year. 868 00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:33,200 Speaker 1: You were ahead of your time gascon in was it 869 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:38,359 Speaker 1: October late October of last year when you cursed me? 870 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:43,440 Speaker 1: You jinxed me and sent me to the most painful 871 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:50,200 Speaker 1: operation you can have the gall bladder remove.
