0:00:02.279 --> 0:00:05.360
<v Speaker 2>If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes

0:00:05.400 --> 0:00:09.200
<v Speaker 2>a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

0:00:09.200 --> 0:00:12.480
<v Speaker 2>of the old Republic, a soul fashion of fairness. He

0:00:12.560 --> 0:00:15.480

0:00:15.600 --> 0:00:19.440
<v Speaker 2>rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow to the clearinghouse

<v Speaker 1>In the air everywhere. The Fifth Hour with Me, Ben

0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:38.800
<v Speaker 1>Mahler and Danny g Radio A happy Sunday if you

0:00:39.120 --> 0:00:40.760
<v Speaker 1>happen to live in a place like we live in

0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:44.199
<v Speaker 1>where you flip the clocks back an hour, so a

0:00:44.200 --> 0:00:48.479
<v Speaker 1>little extra sleep here on an NFL Sunday, Week nine

0:00:48.760 --> 0:00:51.519
<v Speaker 1>of the NFL. Are we gonna sit here and talk

0:00:51.520 --> 0:00:57.480
<v Speaker 1>about the NFL. Danny, No, no, no, you don't bury

0:00:57.600 --> 0:01:01.560
<v Speaker 1>the lead, my man. That's right, my man. We are

0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:04.880
<v Speaker 1>still in the afterglow. There's still some smoke in the

0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 1>air from the hoodlums in La there celebrating, but the

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers in Toronto last.

0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 3>Wait, I must be one of the hoodlums because I

0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:16.080
<v Speaker 3>just shot off my last firework like an hour ago.

0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:18.080
<v Speaker 3>I have not gone to bed.

0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Yet you gotta go down to TJ and get some more.

0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:24.200
<v Speaker 1>But the Dodgers have won the World Series in a

0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:28.520
<v Speaker 1>improbable a team that was supposed to win. It looked

0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:31.200
<v Speaker 1>like they were cooked in that game last night. So

0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:34.760
<v Speaker 1>obviously a lot on that are in depth team coverage

0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:40.200
<v Speaker 1>the morning after post mortem on another championship for the Dodgers.

0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:44.040
<v Speaker 1>Nine World Series wins as a franchise, the Dodgers now

0:01:44.080 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 1>moving into a three way tie for the third most

0:01:47.720 --> 0:01:51.760
<v Speaker 1>franchised World Series wins all time. The only teams that

0:01:51.840 --> 0:01:55.320
<v Speaker 1>have more are what the they think the Cardinals and Yankees? Right,

0:01:55.320 --> 0:01:59.200
<v Speaker 1>I believe that's it? So yeah, the Dodgers. Some of

0:01:59.240 --> 0:02:01.200
<v Speaker 1>those were in Brooklyn, but who cares about that. Let's

0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:05.480
<v Speaker 1>focus in Danny g on what was wacky?

0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:08.240
<v Speaker 3>That's funny because you don't give the Lakers credit for

0:02:08.320 --> 0:02:09.720
<v Speaker 3>that Minneapolis title.

0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:14.200
<v Speaker 1>Well though nobody watched the NBA back in those his

0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:19.480
<v Speaker 1>baseball was popular when but Will Smith Will Smith homering

0:02:19.760 --> 0:02:23.120
<v Speaker 1>in the eleventh any last night, Miguel Rojas who sucks

0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:26.480
<v Speaker 1>connecting on home run to type embarrassing for the Blue Jays.

0:02:26.960 --> 0:02:29.639
<v Speaker 1>So the Dodgers win Game seven, five to four.

0:02:30.280 --> 0:02:32.880
<v Speaker 3>Wait a second, though Mickey doesn't suck. I think he

0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:36.400
<v Speaker 3>was the key to the comeback and everything that happened

0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:39.320
<v Speaker 3>in Game six and seven, because if you recall, who

0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:44.840
<v Speaker 3>was the lone man standing on the dugout steps. Yeah, well,

0:02:44.960 --> 0:02:49.160
<v Speaker 3>after that horrid loss in Los Angeles, there was one

0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:52.800
<v Speaker 3>man who seemed to care more than every other Dodger

0:02:53.160 --> 0:02:55.000
<v Speaker 3>and his name was Miguel Rojas.

0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:57.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well that's fine, and I'm happy he hit the

0:02:57.680 --> 0:02:59.480
<v Speaker 1>home run at all. He's not a great player, but

0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:03.440
<v Speaker 1>this and the Dodgers they're three nothing. They always say,

0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:06.520
<v Speaker 1>don't you can give up a run in a closeout game,

0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:08.320
<v Speaker 1>but if you give up a crooked number where it's

0:03:08.320 --> 0:03:11.000
<v Speaker 1>like two or three runs, you're usually porked at that point.

0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:13.519
<v Speaker 1>And the Dodgers were down three to nothing early in

0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:17.119
<v Speaker 1>the game, and then they got closed. It was three

0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:19.520
<v Speaker 1>to two, and then the Blue Jays got another run.

0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:22.880
<v Speaker 3>It was three to one, and then four to two,

0:03:23.400 --> 0:03:26.000
<v Speaker 3>and you know who that for them? The baseball gods

0:03:26.040 --> 0:03:29.840
<v Speaker 3>did not take fondly to Clement and his pussy leg

0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:31.440
<v Speaker 3>up slide into home plate.

0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:36.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, the Dodgers got out of a bases loaded

0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:39.000
<v Speaker 1>jam in the ninth also, and so they are the

0:03:39.040 --> 0:03:43.320
<v Speaker 1>first National League team to repeat since the nineteen seventies Reds,

0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:45.600
<v Speaker 1>the Big Red Machine and then the Yankees in the

0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:48.680
<v Speaker 1>American League in the late two thousands. But the Will

0:03:48.720 --> 0:03:53.400
<v Speaker 1>Smith home run off Shane Bieber into the Blue Jays

0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:56.080
<v Speaker 1>bullpen there, and that was the first time the Dodgers

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:58.240
<v Speaker 1>had a lead, and it was in the eleventh inning,

0:03:58.360 --> 0:03:59.920
<v Speaker 1>and then it still looked like they were gonna f

0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:02.880
<v Speaker 1>up Danny after that. So as we talk about this,

0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:06.680
<v Speaker 1>what are you going to remember from the twenty twenty

0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:13.520
<v Speaker 1>five Dodgers World Championship here? And I mean the champagne

0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:16.880
<v Speaker 1>is still being popped from Toronto to Malibu to Tokyo

0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:20.839
<v Speaker 1>and everywhere in between here. But I guess for me,

0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:25.160
<v Speaker 1>it's that they were supposed to win. They won, all

0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 1>the payroll, the players being pampered, the private jets, all

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:31.200
<v Speaker 1>that stuff. They probably had a sushi chef on one

0:04:31.240 --> 0:04:35.599
<v Speaker 1>of the planes carving up whatever. But you know, they won,

0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:38.120
<v Speaker 1>and that's they were supposed to win. They did what

0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:40.160
<v Speaker 1>they were supposed to do. And the other thing too,

0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:44.200
<v Speaker 1>And I mentioned this on yesterday's podcast, Danny, and it's accurate.

0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Will Smith, not the slapper, the catcher, goes men in

0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:55.080
<v Speaker 1>black in Toronto, and that home run was the neuralizer

0:04:55.200 --> 0:04:57.600
<v Speaker 1>that thanks to that home run by Will Smith, that dinger,

0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:02.000
<v Speaker 1>everyone's gonna forget about how bad Otani pitched, how bad

0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:06.640
<v Speaker 1>Snell pitched. Blake Snell had an ERA of six point

0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:10.160
<v Speaker 1>nine two. We actually came in Game seven in relief Otani.

0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:14.320
<v Speaker 3>Some quick note on Snell though, one good little spot there,

0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:17.520
<v Speaker 3>and then when Roberts decided to stay with him. Thank

0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:21.000
<v Speaker 3>god Snell was bad enough to make way for Yamamoto,

0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:24.680
<v Speaker 3>because if Snell had just been mid that could have

0:05:24.800 --> 0:05:28.279
<v Speaker 3>spelled the end for Dodger fans and the Dodgers, because

0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:31.359
<v Speaker 3>if he had just been good enough to have Roberts

0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:34.440
<v Speaker 3>keep him in until the Blue Jays eked out the win.

0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:38.680
<v Speaker 3>So I'm glad that Snell sucked just enough the second

0:05:38.720 --> 0:05:39.960
<v Speaker 3>time he got on the mound there.

0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:41.839
<v Speaker 1>That was a good kind of suck there for Snell.

0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:45.240
<v Speaker 1>So but think the Dodgers win the World Series. Snell

0:05:45.400 --> 0:05:47.440
<v Speaker 1>ended up with a six ninety two ERA in the

0:05:47.440 --> 0:05:49.719
<v Speaker 1>World Series, which went down by the way, he was

0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:53.840
<v Speaker 1>over ten. He was over ten at one point. O'tani

0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:57.080
<v Speaker 1>on the mound just as a pitcher had an ERA

0:05:57.240 --> 0:05:59.719
<v Speaker 1>of seven point seven to eight in the World Series.

0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:04.000
<v Speaker 1>But Will Smith with that neuralizer, people will forget about that.

0:06:04.000 --> 0:06:06.480
<v Speaker 1>They'll also forget Mookie Betts batter at a buck thirty

0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:10.280
<v Speaker 1>eight in the World Series, won thirty eight one three of.

0:06:10.200 --> 0:06:13.000
<v Speaker 3>Their I'll remember Bets double play there to end it.

0:06:13.960 --> 0:06:18.480
<v Speaker 1>Well, I mean, listen, he had won the game six hit,

0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:19.960
<v Speaker 1>he drove in a couple runs there.

0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:24.640
<v Speaker 3>How about pas not even being able to pop the

0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:28.359
<v Speaker 3>ball up to the outfield to get the sacrifice run.

0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:31.480
<v Speaker 3>But prior to that, obviously, when he was switched in

0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:36.520
<v Speaker 3>for defense, what a fricking play there. He basically pushed

0:06:36.839 --> 0:06:40.279
<v Speaker 3>Kik out of the way. To me, that was the

0:06:40.320 --> 0:06:43.200
<v Speaker 3>pinnacle of that game, which was one of the most

0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:47.120
<v Speaker 3>exciting Game sevens in baseball I've ever seen. But I

0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:49.880
<v Speaker 3>think we got to go back to the eighteen inning marathon.

0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:54.080
<v Speaker 3>You made a great point by giving Will Smith some kudos.

0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:58.400
<v Speaker 3>The other thing that kind of goes unnoticed is Will

0:06:58.480 --> 0:07:03.080
<v Speaker 3>Smith pot all eighteen of those innings. They laughed on

0:07:03.160 --> 0:07:05.719
<v Speaker 3>the broadcast the following day. They said that Dave Roberts

0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:07.600
<v Speaker 3>went up to him and said, Hey, how you feeling,

0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:10.880
<v Speaker 3>And He's like, I'm fine. Why why you ask, But

0:07:11.040 --> 0:07:15.000
<v Speaker 3>remember their fat catcher on the blue Jays. He didn't

0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:18.480
<v Speaker 3>make all eighteen innings. They had to use two catchers

0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.200
<v Speaker 3>there for the blue Jays. Will Smith is a robot

0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:22.920
<v Speaker 3>just as much as Yamamoto is.

0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:26.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I got He's my favorite blue Jay though Christian Kirk,

0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:28.600
<v Speaker 1>because he just doesn't look like a baseball. But he's

0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:30.400
<v Speaker 1>like a big fat they're not big fat guy, a

0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:31.120
<v Speaker 1>little fat guy.

0:07:31.120 --> 0:07:31.880
<v Speaker 3>But I liked that.

0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:32.760
<v Speaker 1>He's a good thing.

0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:35.000
<v Speaker 3>He's Chris Farley, fat guy in a small jet.

0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:38.080
<v Speaker 1>I actually I was texting some people. I kind of

0:07:38.120 --> 0:07:40.520
<v Speaker 1>like that guy. He's like I wish he was. Dodgers

0:07:40.600 --> 0:07:42.520
<v Speaker 1>won't have a catcher for a while because Will Smith

0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:44.520
<v Speaker 1>signed forever and he's I don't know how many more

0:07:44.560 --> 0:07:46.520
<v Speaker 1>years he's going to play. But man, so the Dodgers

0:07:46.520 --> 0:07:49.680
<v Speaker 1>win the World Series, all the all that stuff, as

0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:53.800
<v Speaker 1>we said, Otani, the batty, ra Snell, gookie bets, all

0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:57.360
<v Speaker 1>that stuff goes out the window. And also what would

0:07:57.360 --> 0:08:00.480
<v Speaker 1>have happened as we predicted yesterday in a previous episode

0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:02.840
<v Speaker 1>of the Fifth Hour podcast Danny, is that all the

0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:05.360
<v Speaker 1>talk about you know they were pampered, Yeah, they were pampered.

0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:07.200
<v Speaker 1>They were absolutely pamped. They were coddled. It was a

0:08:07.240 --> 0:08:10.200
<v Speaker 1>country club set up. The Dodgers had the first team

0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:14.080
<v Speaker 1>ever to have two planes on the road. Everyone else

0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:17.119
<v Speaker 1>in pro sports has one plane and they had two,

0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:23.880
<v Speaker 1>and so it's goot Yoshinobu Yamamoto was absolute nails, big balls,

0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:28.600
<v Speaker 1>ninety six pitches on Friday, came back yesterday less than

0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:31.440
<v Speaker 1>twenty four hours later, got out of that basis loaded

0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:34.000
<v Speaker 1>jam in the ninth and you know the.

0:08:34.040 --> 0:08:38.200
<v Speaker 3>Sort of told Ju last weekend, Nolan Ryan like nowadays

0:08:38.440 --> 0:08:40.280
<v Speaker 3>most pitchers are little cry babies.

0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:43.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, ends up with an ERI of one o five

0:08:43.679 --> 0:08:47.320
<v Speaker 1>one point five in the World Series, and that is

0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:51.000
<v Speaker 1>like a monk meditating on the mound watching him pitch it.

0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:54.040
<v Speaker 1>So you're always skeptical and it's still gonna end up

0:08:54.040 --> 0:08:55.839
<v Speaker 1>being a disaster at the end. He signed for three

0:08:55.920 --> 0:09:00.880
<v Speaker 1>hundred and twelve twenty five million for twelve year years, right,

0:09:01.000 --> 0:09:03.880
<v Speaker 1>so I mean this guy the back.

0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:06.800
<v Speaker 3>They're going to get their money back next season on him,

0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:08.600
<v Speaker 3>the same way they did on Otani.

0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Right away, I'm just saying, like when the last five

0:09:13.080 --> 0:09:14.480
<v Speaker 1>years are not going to be pretty, But who cares

0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:16.560
<v Speaker 1>about that? Right now? We don't care about that.

0:09:16.840 --> 0:09:20.040
<v Speaker 3>And it's going to be our kids problem exactly. And

0:09:20.080 --> 0:09:23.600
<v Speaker 3>I'm surprised you haven't mentioned the cheating acts stroke.

0:09:23.760 --> 0:09:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh well, I was very pleased that not only was

0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:32.520
<v Speaker 1>George cheater springer hobbling around out there, he walked off

0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:34.760
<v Speaker 1>the field a loser, a loser.

0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:37.960
<v Speaker 3>And then but Rob, how about that little baby Jimenez?

0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:41.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh oh yeah, Well he started the bench is clear.

0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:43.360
<v Speaker 1>He was trying to get hit by the pitch and

0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:45.680
<v Speaker 1>then you get called out on it, and then he

0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:49.679
<v Speaker 1>got defensive and then everyone goes running out of the bullpens,

0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:51.400
<v Speaker 1>which is like the dumbest thing of all time and

0:09:51.400 --> 0:09:56.160
<v Speaker 1>all that stuff. But there you go, so Yamamoto, quiet efficient,

0:09:56.559 --> 0:10:01.720
<v Speaker 1>no drama, just dominated on the mound and more sports

0:10:01.800 --> 0:10:06.800
<v Speaker 1>amnesia there. But wait there's more. But wait, there's more,

0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:12.160
<v Speaker 1>more strikeouts, more pop ups, more more weekly hit one hoppers,

0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:15.360
<v Speaker 1>back to the moud and the the jinks of Drake

0:10:15.400 --> 0:10:18.000
<v Speaker 1>will live on the jinks of Drake. And also I

0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:19.880
<v Speaker 1>saw some stuff. I saw some stuff after the game

0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:22.400
<v Speaker 1>last night, Danny, where people saying, well, remember when Vladimir

0:10:22.440 --> 0:10:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Guerrera showed up wearing that Austin Matthews sweater earlier in

0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:29.440
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs and see see he wore he wore an

0:10:29.480 --> 0:10:33.320
<v Speaker 1>Austin manual Toronto Maple Leafs guy, And so that was

0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:36.600
<v Speaker 1>the equivalent of wearing like a Titanic life vest before

0:10:36.640 --> 0:10:39.920
<v Speaker 1>boarding your Carnival Cruise Lines ship and all that. So

0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:42.160
<v Speaker 1>the the Blue Jays are done, the Dodgers are the

0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:45.880
<v Speaker 1>champions of all and the Blue Jay's new nickname the

0:10:45.920 --> 0:10:49.080
<v Speaker 1>Toronto Blue Jays. See it's blue, but.

0:10:49.840 --> 0:10:53.880
<v Speaker 3>Are the champions? All right? Have one last thing for you,

0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:55.400
<v Speaker 3>because I want to see how you're going to deal

0:10:55.440 --> 0:10:58.360
<v Speaker 3>with this later tonight, early Monday morning when you're on

0:10:58.400 --> 0:11:01.800
<v Speaker 3>the network. Yeah, I had one picture. I didn't do

0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:03.920
<v Speaker 3>a lot of tweets, but I did one picture. I

0:11:04.000 --> 0:11:07.560
<v Speaker 3>busted Rob Parker's balls. That was fun. You can go

0:11:07.600 --> 0:11:10.280
<v Speaker 3>to at Danny G Radio to see that. And then

0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:14.440
<v Speaker 3>I just put an MVP picture of Yamamoto. Christopher Lee

0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:18.680
<v Speaker 3>aka Spacoli replied back with a picture of that wedged

0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:22.199
<v Speaker 3>ball and next to the wedged ball is a big asterisk.

0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.800
<v Speaker 3>All the trolls are gonna blame that on the Blue

0:11:25.920 --> 0:11:28.679
<v Speaker 3>Jays losing the series? What say you?

0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:31.560
<v Speaker 1>I say those people can go eat a shit, Sam,

0:11:31.559 --> 0:11:36.880
<v Speaker 1>which that's what I say, Danny G Please, my God

0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:42.080
<v Speaker 1>of all things, the Blue Jays had the lead for

0:11:42.400 --> 0:11:45.400
<v Speaker 1>ninety nine percent of that game and efed it up

0:11:45.440 --> 0:11:48.960
<v Speaker 1>and it wasn't because of that play. It's absurd, But

0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:50.720
<v Speaker 1>that's why everything every time.

0:11:50.520 --> 0:11:53.440
<v Speaker 3>That ball did come to a dead stop wedge in

0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:57.520
<v Speaker 3>between Yeah, the turf in the in the patting there.

0:11:57.640 --> 0:12:00.760
<v Speaker 3>So I don't think you could say I love how

0:12:00.800 --> 0:12:03.920
<v Speaker 3>people are posting pictures of that Mets play where the

0:12:03.960 --> 0:12:07.200
<v Speaker 3>ball was underneath the fence that clearly wasn't wedged. The

0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:09.200
<v Speaker 3>ball in Game six was wedged.

0:12:09.840 --> 0:12:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I mean, if that's where you're going find,

0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:16.319
<v Speaker 1>you know, let's overlook all the incompetence of this rond oblivion.

0:12:16.440 --> 0:12:18.280
<v Speaker 1>Spaccoli ought to worry about his Steelers. In fact, I

0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:20.800
<v Speaker 1>want to get to the mailbag because his email he

0:12:20.920 --> 0:12:24.120
<v Speaker 1>sent me a couple of messages. Why don't we get

0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:25.800
<v Speaker 1>why don't we get on al in here and we'll

0:12:25.840 --> 0:12:26.679
<v Speaker 1>get right to the mail bag.

0:12:26.720 --> 0:12:27.160
<v Speaker 3>Here we go.

0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:43.320
<v Speaker 1>It's all right, This is a great jumping off point,

0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:47.600
<v Speaker 1>Danny G. So Spaccoli, the aforementioned Spaccoli, was upset with me.

0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:51.240
<v Speaker 1>He wanted he was upset. I wasn't active on social media.

0:12:51.240 --> 0:12:54.520
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't on Twitter. He wanted some snarky World Series tweets,

0:12:54.520 --> 0:12:59.000
<v Speaker 1>he said, and he sent me a message an email,

0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:00.800
<v Speaker 1>and then he was like, I guess he had posted

0:13:00.760 --> 0:13:05.480
<v Speaker 1>this stuff on Twitter. And so my take on that,

0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:07.079
<v Speaker 1>I would like to address this because every once in

0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:07.959
<v Speaker 1>a while I get this, I like.

0:13:07.880 --> 0:13:08.400
<v Speaker 3>Well, are you not?

0:13:08.600 --> 0:13:10.720
<v Speaker 1>You should be on social media during the game and

0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:14.600
<v Speaker 1>all that. So Spaccoli's all bent out of shape that

0:13:15.120 --> 0:13:18.520
<v Speaker 1>I did not live tweet Game seven in the World Series, Like,

0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:22.680
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, this is horrible. I didn't give away

0:13:23.120 --> 0:13:26.480
<v Speaker 1>my content for free on x what that is a

0:13:26.600 --> 0:13:32.080
<v Speaker 1>national tragedy, Like seriously, god forbid that we just watched

0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:35.280
<v Speaker 1>the game like human beings. I don't need to monetize

0:13:35.320 --> 0:13:37.760
<v Speaker 1>the hot takes there. And why would you pay for

0:13:37.800 --> 0:13:40.240
<v Speaker 1>the cow? Isn't that the line Dan we used to

0:13:40.240 --> 0:13:41.400
<v Speaker 1>hear that work kids. Why would you pay for the

0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:43.439
<v Speaker 1>cow when you get the milk for free? We got

0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:46.080
<v Speaker 1>to save the a material for the podcast for the

0:13:46.160 --> 0:13:51.160
<v Speaker 1>radio show. That is a business move, Spacoli. You don't

0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:55.040
<v Speaker 1>tweet your talking points, your monologue, whatever before you go

0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:57.760
<v Speaker 1>on the air. That would be like leaking a set

0:13:57.800 --> 0:14:00.600
<v Speaker 1>list before the concert, like you. No, if you want

0:14:00.600 --> 0:14:02.920
<v Speaker 1>to whine, you can wind. We are in the pay

0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:06.280
<v Speaker 1>to play business here. It is the matrix of the media.

0:14:06.920 --> 0:14:08.800
<v Speaker 1>And if you want to play blue pill red pill,

0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:12.040
<v Speaker 1>the blue pill is live tweeting for clout. The red

0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:15.600
<v Speaker 1>pill is cashing checks behind the microphone. Now, I choose

0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:18.280
<v Speaker 1>the red pill every once in a while, I'll give

0:14:18.280 --> 0:14:21.080
<v Speaker 1>a free sample out, I'll do the blue Pill every

0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:22.960
<v Speaker 1>once in a while, and I'll do an ask Ben

0:14:23.080 --> 0:14:25.160
<v Speaker 1>now and again and all that stuff. But you know,

0:14:25.320 --> 0:14:29.440
<v Speaker 1>not logging into x to please Spacoli. That's not my

0:14:29.560 --> 0:14:32.760
<v Speaker 1>life's work here. I like to stay in Wonderland, where

0:14:32.800 --> 0:14:35.600
<v Speaker 1>the ratings are and where we get paid. Now, if

0:14:35.600 --> 0:14:37.960
<v Speaker 1>the company wants to pay us to go on social media,

0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:41.040
<v Speaker 1>I am more than happy to go on there. If

0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:43.080
<v Speaker 1>there's a check involved in it, I will go on

0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:45.400
<v Speaker 1>there all the time. But generally speaking, they don't pay us.

0:14:45.520 --> 0:14:48.800
<v Speaker 1>In fact, more times than not, the the social media

0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:50.840
<v Speaker 1>platforms will get you in more trouble than the radio

0:14:50.880 --> 0:14:54.040
<v Speaker 1>show will. So that's my take on that. But uh yeah,

0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:56.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm happy the Dodgers won. I wasn't on I was watching.

0:14:56.240 --> 0:14:58.560
<v Speaker 1>I was you know what I do, Danny now, and

0:14:58.600 --> 0:15:01.520
<v Speaker 1>I've determined, I've I've got a kind of a core group,

0:15:02.120 --> 0:15:05.960
<v Speaker 1>and there's a lot of few text messages to go around,

0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:07.680
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, Daniel, You're you're texting your

0:15:07.720 --> 0:15:09.960
<v Speaker 1>friends and you're going back and forth. Well if that

0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:12.640
<v Speaker 1>guy f that guy, and then you're you know, the

0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:14.680
<v Speaker 1>stuff that you might send out on social media. But

0:15:14.720 --> 0:15:17.040
<v Speaker 1>I just do it in a tight circle of people

0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:21.160
<v Speaker 1>that are around, you know, in my in my circle,

0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:24.560
<v Speaker 1>and that's it. And I'm fine with that, and I

0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:27.280
<v Speaker 1>don't need to put it all out there on social

0:15:27.360 --> 0:15:30.800
<v Speaker 1>media in real time. So there you go. But Cooley,

0:15:31.880 --> 0:15:33.520
<v Speaker 1>knock yourself out, all right.

0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:35.960
<v Speaker 3>I wedge your balls into a fence.

0:15:35.840 --> 0:15:38.400
<v Speaker 1>Exactly a Scott from Florida Rights and it says, Hey, Ben,

0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:41.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure if you saw the video of the

0:15:41.680 --> 0:15:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Hurricane Hunter's plane hitting turbulence as it flew into Hurricane

0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:51.400
<v Speaker 1>Melissa's I this week, for the AI in the world,

0:15:51.920 --> 0:15:54.520
<v Speaker 1>for all the AI of the world, it still seems

0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:58.200
<v Speaker 1>like ten to fifteen people are needed to fly that

0:15:58.320 --> 0:16:00.640
<v Speaker 1>version of the vomit comet into the eye of the

0:16:00.760 --> 0:16:04.480
<v Speaker 1>hurricane to take measurements. Do you think you could handle

0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:08.040
<v Speaker 1>that flight as a passenger if they offered you a seat,

0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:12.880
<v Speaker 1>or would you pass on taking the flight for science? Well,

0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:16.120
<v Speaker 1>first of all, Scott, I'm pretty low on the list

0:16:16.160 --> 0:16:17.720
<v Speaker 1>of people they would ask. I don't think I'm right

0:16:17.800 --> 0:16:19.600
<v Speaker 1>near the top. I've only been on a couple of

0:16:19.600 --> 0:16:24.119
<v Speaker 1>flights knock on wood here that have had serious turbulence,

0:16:24.320 --> 0:16:27.360
<v Speaker 1>and really only one that was really like I thought

0:16:27.400 --> 0:16:29.200
<v Speaker 1>I might vomit or something like that, But for the

0:16:29.240 --> 0:16:31.880
<v Speaker 1>most part it's only been minor turbance, So I don't

0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:36.600
<v Speaker 1>see any reason to do that. If I had a

0:16:36.720 --> 0:16:38.360
<v Speaker 1>chance to go to the Moon and it was safe,

0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:41.600
<v Speaker 1>I might go do something like that. Yeah, I'm good.

0:16:41.640 --> 0:16:43.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't need to go on the actual vomit commet.

0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:47.320
<v Speaker 1>I see the vomit commet every postseason in baseball. I

0:16:47.320 --> 0:16:50.920
<v Speaker 1>saw Toronto ride the vomit comment on Saturday night, their

0:16:50.960 --> 0:16:54.040
<v Speaker 1>bullpen and some of their bats riding the vomit commet.

0:16:54.360 --> 0:16:56.360
<v Speaker 1>And next time we see the vomit commet will be

0:16:56.360 --> 0:16:59.240
<v Speaker 1>the college football playoff, and then the NFL playoffs, and

0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:01.840
<v Speaker 1>then the NBA and then the whole thing. So what

0:17:01.880 --> 0:17:03.840
<v Speaker 1>about you, Danny, would you want to go on a

0:17:04.040 --> 0:17:08.400
<v Speaker 1>hurricane flying plane? A plane that flies into the eye

0:17:08.480 --> 0:17:10.880
<v Speaker 1>of a hurricane. Is that something that has any any

0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:11.399
<v Speaker 1>interest to that?

0:17:11.520 --> 0:17:14.399
<v Speaker 3>Danny? This kind of reminds me too. You took the

0:17:14.400 --> 0:17:19.280
<v Speaker 3>same tour I did of the coast line there in Kawaii. Yes,

0:17:19.800 --> 0:17:20.760
<v Speaker 3>what is that? Nepali?

0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:23.440
<v Speaker 1>The poly coast the most beautiful place I've ever been

0:17:23.480 --> 0:17:25.160
<v Speaker 1>on God's Green Earth in the poly coast.

0:17:25.200 --> 0:17:30.640
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I took a helicopter ride over that coastline. Amazing

0:17:31.040 --> 0:17:35.040
<v Speaker 3>and scary at times. So to then want to go

0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:39.280
<v Speaker 3>into a helicopter or a plane that goes into a

0:17:39.320 --> 0:17:41.679
<v Speaker 3>storm on purpose and I'm cool on that.

0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:44.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Yeah, it's a little much, but I'm glad people

0:17:44.840 --> 0:17:47.000
<v Speaker 1>are willing to do it. Imagine when you get to

0:17:47.040 --> 0:17:49.960
<v Speaker 1>the eye of the hurricane, everything's calm like okay, but

0:17:50.000 --> 0:17:52.159
<v Speaker 1>then you know you have to go out. There's no

0:17:52.600 --> 0:17:55.120
<v Speaker 1>there's only one way out, and that's going back through

0:17:55.119 --> 0:17:55.760
<v Speaker 1>the hurricanes.

0:17:55.840 --> 0:17:59.200
<v Speaker 3>So all right about flying into the Bermuda Triangle though,

0:17:59.240 --> 0:18:02.040
<v Speaker 3>to finally figure what the hell that was all about, Yeah.

0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:04.920
<v Speaker 1>We really haven't heard anything about that in years, right,

0:18:04.920 --> 0:18:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Remember when we were kids, it was that was a

0:18:07.080 --> 0:18:10.720
<v Speaker 1>massive thing, the Bermuda Triangle. When's the last time something

0:18:10.760 --> 0:18:13.760
<v Speaker 1>did they must have figured something out on that, because

0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:17.240
<v Speaker 1>we don't. I don't recall hearing anything about planes or

0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:22.159
<v Speaker 1>boats vanishing in years. Am I missing something? Maybe it happened?

0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:27.200
<v Speaker 1>And I yeah, interesting, alf from the Smurf Kitchen says,

0:18:27.240 --> 0:18:31.280
<v Speaker 1>what's the best way to reheat aluminum foil in the microwave? Well, unfortunately,

0:18:31.320 --> 0:18:34.240
<v Speaker 1>alf our friend Lorena is not available, but I'll send

0:18:34.280 --> 0:18:36.159
<v Speaker 1>her a text message and see what's what's going on.

0:18:36.359 --> 0:18:38.760
<v Speaker 1>She heated up a sandwich the other day, Danny and

0:18:38.800 --> 0:18:40.800
<v Speaker 1>she had a nice, delicious sandwich and she put it

0:18:40.800 --> 0:18:44.800
<v Speaker 1>in the microwave there and she walked away and the

0:18:44.840 --> 0:18:48.679
<v Speaker 1>things started smoking, and apparently the sandwich was covered in

0:18:48.800 --> 0:18:53.720
<v Speaker 1>hidden aluminum foil. Made quite quite the scene there at

0:18:53.720 --> 0:18:57.200
<v Speaker 1>the Smurf Kitchen in Sherman Oaks. Quite the scene apparently.

0:18:57.280 --> 0:18:59.120
<v Speaker 3>So were there flames.

0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:02.560
<v Speaker 1>From what I was not in the room, but from

0:19:02.560 --> 0:19:04.680
<v Speaker 1>when I am told there were some flames that popped

0:19:04.760 --> 0:19:09.400
<v Speaker 1>up a little bit, so yeah, yeah, nice, Yeah, generally

0:19:09.520 --> 0:19:13.960
<v Speaker 1>you try to avoid that, but do you know yeah

0:19:14.000 --> 0:19:16.480
<v Speaker 1>ferg dog and Fullerton writes in on the mailbag. He says,

0:19:16.520 --> 0:19:20.280
<v Speaker 1>greeting's been and Danny g Ben you said some something

0:19:20.400 --> 0:19:23.000
<v Speaker 1>on your award winning radio show this week. That couldn't

0:19:23.040 --> 0:19:26.120
<v Speaker 1>be more true. You said, if you get a king

0:19:26.240 --> 0:19:29.359
<v Speaker 1>size candy bar while trick or treating on Halloween, you'll

0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:33.160
<v Speaker 1>remember that even when you're fifty. Yeah, I told this story,

0:19:33.200 --> 0:19:35.320
<v Speaker 1>I said before Halloween, Danny. I said, if you want

0:19:35.320 --> 0:19:37.639
<v Speaker 1>to be the coolest person in the neighborhood, and you

0:19:37.760 --> 0:19:40.639
<v Speaker 1>truly want to touch the lives of children in a

0:19:40.800 --> 0:19:45.240
<v Speaker 1>very subtle way, that will last for thirty forty years

0:19:45.240 --> 0:19:47.440
<v Speaker 1>of their lives when they're adults, and they will tell

0:19:47.480 --> 0:19:49.879
<v Speaker 1>the story to their kids that they were trick or

0:19:49.920 --> 0:19:54.600
<v Speaker 1>treating this list old dude gave out full size Snickers bars,

0:19:54.640 --> 0:19:58.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, king size. And then with Ferg Doog says,

0:19:58.200 --> 0:19:59.560
<v Speaker 1>there was a house at the end of the of

0:19:59.600 --> 0:20:02.720
<v Speaker 1>mice eat growing up, they gave out full or king

0:20:02.840 --> 0:20:06.399
<v Speaker 1>sized candy bars and I'll never forget it. Never. They

0:20:06.440 --> 0:20:09.520
<v Speaker 1>had a son named Elliott. I hope he's carrying on

0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:12.840
<v Speaker 1>the family tradition now. Ferg Dog also says, you mentioned

0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:15.480
<v Speaker 1>Ronda ROUSI a story that you didn't have time for.

0:20:15.600 --> 0:20:19.280
<v Speaker 1>Could you please tell it now, Danny g and the

0:20:19.320 --> 0:20:20.600
<v Speaker 1>rest of the world would love to hear it. I

0:20:20.640 --> 0:20:22.000
<v Speaker 1>don't know that Danny g wants to hear it, but

0:20:22.040 --> 0:20:25.200
<v Speaker 1>I'll go back and tell the quick version, the thumbnail

0:20:25.240 --> 0:20:32.120
<v Speaker 1>recap for fer Dog. So this goes back roughly fifteen years,

0:20:32.119 --> 0:20:34.879
<v Speaker 1>maybe a little shorter than that, maybe a little longer

0:20:34.920 --> 0:20:35.159
<v Speaker 1>than that.

0:20:35.800 --> 0:20:37.800
<v Speaker 3>So just the time she told you if you could

0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:41.360
<v Speaker 3>pit her in the ring, she would sleep with you close.

0:20:41.720 --> 0:20:43.560
<v Speaker 1>So I was doing a show with, of all people,

0:20:43.640 --> 0:20:47.200
<v Speaker 1>Chris Myers. I could because I care. Oh, oh, the

0:20:47.240 --> 0:20:50.280
<v Speaker 1>great Chris Myers. I was sitting in for Brian Cox,

0:20:50.280 --> 0:20:52.080
<v Speaker 1>who used to be a linebacker in the NFL and

0:20:52.119 --> 0:20:53.000
<v Speaker 1>hated my guts.

0:20:53.200 --> 0:20:55.320
<v Speaker 3>So anyway, Christ think you could say that word on

0:20:55.440 --> 0:20:55.720
<v Speaker 3>the air.

0:20:55.920 --> 0:20:59.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Chris Myers and me, we're hanging out doing the show,

0:20:59.520 --> 0:21:02.640
<v Speaker 1>and Ronda Rousi was doing a round of media. This

0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:05.639
<v Speaker 1>is before women's UFC became really a thing, and she

0:21:05.800 --> 0:21:09.199
<v Speaker 1>was like this curiosity, Danny. Remember when Ronda Rowsi came

0:21:09.240 --> 0:21:11.040
<v Speaker 1>on the scene, she was like a beautiful woman and

0:21:11.200 --> 0:21:13.639
<v Speaker 1>was like, whoa beautiful woman likes the violence? You know,

0:21:14.119 --> 0:21:17.080
<v Speaker 1>that's kind of odd, what's going on. She was doing

0:21:17.080 --> 0:21:19.200
<v Speaker 1>a lot of media, trying to build her stuff up

0:21:19.400 --> 0:21:22.959
<v Speaker 1>even bigger, and as she was becoming a star and

0:21:23.359 --> 0:21:26.399
<v Speaker 1>a day before she came on the show, she was

0:21:26.440 --> 0:21:29.159
<v Speaker 1>in studio like Ronda came in. She lives in At

0:21:29.160 --> 0:21:30.639
<v Speaker 1>that time, she lived in LA. I think she was

0:21:30.640 --> 0:21:34.960
<v Speaker 1>from Riverside, but she was in LA and she the

0:21:35.040 --> 0:21:38.000
<v Speaker 1>day before had gone I guess as viral as you can.

0:21:38.160 --> 0:21:40.760
<v Speaker 1>Fifteen years ago she had done an interview with Jim

0:21:40.840 --> 0:21:44.120
<v Speaker 1>Rome literally like a day before You're a Pig. And

0:21:44.560 --> 0:21:46.560
<v Speaker 1>you might remember this, Danny, because it made a big

0:21:46.600 --> 0:21:50.000
<v Speaker 1>story at the time. She had said that before fight,

0:21:50.160 --> 0:21:52.200
<v Speaker 1>she tried to have as much sex as she could.

0:21:52.760 --> 0:21:55.640
<v Speaker 1>As I remember that, yeah, yeah, it was a big story.

0:21:55.640 --> 0:21:57.919
<v Speaker 1>It's like, whoa dude, what's up? Because you know, for always,

0:21:58.000 --> 0:22:01.080
<v Speaker 1>for time out as long as I can. So I's like, man,

0:22:01.119 --> 0:22:02.879
<v Speaker 1>don't have sex before a big game. It's going to

0:22:02.960 --> 0:22:05.520
<v Speaker 1>dr energy and all that stuff. Well, she was like,

0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:06.800
<v Speaker 1>I was a woman, I want to have as much

0:22:06.800 --> 0:22:09.480
<v Speaker 1>sex as I can. And so we had her on

0:22:10.000 --> 0:22:11.919
<v Speaker 1>in studio the next day. So we're like, oh, this

0:22:11.960 --> 0:22:13.440
<v Speaker 1>is gonna be cool. We're going to follow up, you know,

0:22:13.480 --> 0:22:15.920
<v Speaker 1>because the thing went all over place. So we asked

0:22:15.960 --> 0:22:20.120
<v Speaker 1>her me and Chris and she she she didn't want

0:22:20.119 --> 0:22:23.919
<v Speaker 1>to talk about it. She got very shy and It

0:22:24.080 --> 0:22:26.240
<v Speaker 1>turns out the reason she didn't want to talk about

0:22:26.280 --> 0:22:30.080
<v Speaker 1>it for Dog and Danny was because her younger sister

0:22:30.440 --> 0:22:34.240
<v Speaker 1>was with her, and she was embarrassed to talk about

0:22:34.280 --> 0:22:36.960
<v Speaker 1>having sex because her younger sister was with her, even

0:22:37.000 --> 0:22:39.280
<v Speaker 1>though she had just talked about it the day before.

0:22:39.320 --> 0:22:40.240
<v Speaker 1>It was very bizarre.

0:22:40.280 --> 0:22:43.159
<v Speaker 3>But well, I guess that she didn't know whether or

0:22:43.240 --> 0:22:46.440
<v Speaker 3>not her little sister was tuned into the Rome show.

0:22:46.520 --> 0:22:49.000
<v Speaker 3>But I guess if the sister was like right there

0:22:49.040 --> 0:22:52.240
<v Speaker 3>with her. Yeah, she's trying to be a good role model. Yeah,

0:22:52.280 --> 0:22:56.160
<v Speaker 3>my god. But the bad timing because we both had

0:22:56.359 --> 0:23:00.680
<v Speaker 3>situations where an athlete was being interviewed and they were

0:23:00.680 --> 0:23:04.359
<v Speaker 3>giving like one word answers. It's the worst.

0:23:04.720 --> 0:23:08.480
<v Speaker 1>No, it's it's like you're questioning what did you do?

0:23:08.680 --> 0:23:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Life choices? Loser? All right, who's next to the mailbag?

0:23:13.040 --> 0:23:17.360
<v Speaker 1>Let's go. We have Kwang from Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam.

0:23:17.440 --> 0:23:19.600
<v Speaker 1>He writes in and says, hey, big Ben and Danny

0:23:19.640 --> 0:23:22.240
<v Speaker 1>g He says, Ben, I haven't heard this on the

0:23:22.359 --> 0:23:25.879
<v Speaker 1>radio show. Have you ever run down your complete list

0:23:25.880 --> 0:23:28.960
<v Speaker 1>of nicknames in the air everywhere? Well, that's a great point.

0:23:29.040 --> 0:23:31.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't do it much on the radio. Anymore. No,

0:23:31.600 --> 0:23:34.639
<v Speaker 1>I really should. Danny I have more nicknames than anyone

0:23:34.680 --> 0:23:35.080
<v Speaker 1>on radio.

0:23:35.119 --> 0:23:37.840
<v Speaker 3>I think that's up to sixty eight nicknames on fifty

0:23:37.840 --> 0:23:41.480
<v Speaker 3>Oh lord, Marcy, I'm still trying to celebrate here, and

0:23:41.520 --> 0:23:43.320
<v Speaker 3>you're now you're giving me an upset stomach.

0:23:43.520 --> 0:23:47.880
<v Speaker 1>What better way to celebrate than just enjoying the role.

0:23:48.000 --> 0:23:50.520
<v Speaker 1>It's not a list, by the way, Terry in England,

0:23:50.520 --> 0:23:54.280
<v Speaker 1>it's not a list. This is a rundown, a big

0:23:54.359 --> 0:23:57.400
<v Speaker 1>board of nicknames. I have been called Danny g oh No.

0:23:57.840 --> 0:24:01.719
<v Speaker 1>I have been called Spinmaster, miss Information, the banning Broadcaster,

0:24:02.080 --> 0:24:06.560

<v Speaker 1>preposterous professor of propaganda, Huzzar of hyperbole, the floating turd

0:24:47.960 --> 0:24:51.720
<v Speaker 1>of the spoken herd, and the mad Hatter of sports chatter.

0:24:51.880 --> 0:24:53.560
<v Speaker 1>And that's only half my nicknames.

0:24:54.119 --> 0:24:56.840
<v Speaker 3>And it would be rude, like the eighteen inning game

0:24:56.840 --> 0:24:57.679
<v Speaker 3>in the World Series.

0:24:57.920 --> 0:24:59.439
<v Speaker 1>No, this would be rude, though I mean this this

0:24:59.480 --> 0:25:03.399
<v Speaker 1>guy every week, Quang from Vietnam. It would be wrong

0:25:03.560 --> 0:25:06.600
<v Speaker 1>not to do the full big board. And so I'm

0:25:06.640 --> 0:25:07.760

0:26:22.760 --> 0:26:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Next up on the mailbag, Reggie from Detroit writes in

0:26:26.520 --> 0:26:30.240
<v Speaker 1>he says, sorry, I've been away, gentlemen, I was on vacation. Okay,

0:26:30.280 --> 0:26:32.479
<v Speaker 1>it's allowed, Reggie. I think I think we're You can

0:26:32.520 --> 0:26:35.520
<v Speaker 1>still email. I think ferg Dog and Alf still email

0:26:35.520 --> 0:26:38.040
<v Speaker 1>while they're on vacation. Not that the people around them

0:26:38.119 --> 0:26:40.600
<v Speaker 1>like that. Reggie says, there was a survey out recently

0:26:40.680 --> 0:26:43.720
<v Speaker 1>said the number of close friendships the average American has

0:26:43.720 --> 0:26:47.480
<v Speaker 1>has fallen to four. Ben and Danny, how many close

0:26:47.560 --> 0:26:51.840
<v Speaker 1>friends do each of you have? Thanks Reggie. Back at

0:26:51.880 --> 0:26:57.679
<v Speaker 1>work in Detroit. All right, Reggie, I'm gonna go close

0:26:57.840 --> 0:27:02.399
<v Speaker 1>means long term, long term friend. That's kind of in

0:27:02.480 --> 0:27:04.960
<v Speaker 1>the rotation. I would say, hey, I have I don't

0:27:05.000 --> 0:27:08.360
<v Speaker 1>even think I have four. I only think I have three.

0:27:08.560 --> 0:27:10.439
<v Speaker 1>I have a lot of fake friends. I have a

0:27:10.440 --> 0:27:12.520
<v Speaker 1>lot of work friends, and like, work friends are cool,

0:27:13.240 --> 0:27:14.920
<v Speaker 1>but as soon as you stop working together, you never

0:27:14.960 --> 0:27:17.440
<v Speaker 1>talk to them again. You know, they're just they're they're

0:27:17.760 --> 0:27:20.560
<v Speaker 1>they're work friends. They're friends because you have a job

0:27:20.600 --> 0:27:23.760
<v Speaker 1>to do. And and there's people there's only people I'm

0:27:23.800 --> 0:27:28.600
<v Speaker 1>friendly with that I get along with, but they're people

0:27:28.600 --> 0:27:31.359
<v Speaker 1>that are not close. So to answer your question, Reggie,

0:27:31.480 --> 0:27:35.760
<v Speaker 1>I think I am at three. I think I am

0:27:35.800 --> 0:27:38.360
<v Speaker 1>only at three. What about you, Danny? How many close friends?

0:27:38.600 --> 0:27:40.399
<v Speaker 1>Reggie in Detroit is dying to know?

0:27:41.080 --> 0:27:42.919
<v Speaker 3>Are we counting our significant others?

0:27:43.720 --> 0:27:47.399
<v Speaker 1>Well, they're they're contractually obligated to be your friends, so

0:27:48.080 --> 0:27:49.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, you know what I mean, Like you're.

0:27:49.920 --> 0:27:52.640
<v Speaker 3>You're in a big job. So I would say two

0:27:52.840 --> 0:27:57.240
<v Speaker 3>from childhood and then maybe three from you know, being

0:27:57.280 --> 0:27:59.240
<v Speaker 3>an adult. So i'd say five for me.

0:27:59.640 --> 0:28:02.720
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, I have one from my high school days,

0:28:02.800 --> 0:28:05.560
<v Speaker 1>that's my gambling buddy, and then I have two that

0:28:05.680 --> 0:28:07.840
<v Speaker 1>I have picked up along the road of life. That

0:28:07.840 --> 0:28:11.600
<v Speaker 1>I would say, really really good good friends, and that's

0:28:11.920 --> 0:28:13.800
<v Speaker 1>that's pretty much it. I mean, I'm fine, I have

0:28:13.920 --> 0:28:18.200
<v Speaker 1>casual people whatever. We'll check in all that. Scott from

0:28:18.240 --> 0:28:20.600
<v Speaker 1>Northern Kentucky writes, and he says, Hey, Ben and Danny,

0:28:21.040 --> 0:28:23.920
<v Speaker 1>hopefully you're reading this after the Dodgers have come back

0:28:23.920 --> 0:28:26.920
<v Speaker 1>to win two games. But I am skeptical as they

0:28:27.400 --> 0:28:30.000
<v Speaker 1>have returned. Are these sleepwalking ways in the middle of

0:28:30.000 --> 0:28:31.480
<v Speaker 1>the season. Well yeah, you'd be very happy.

0:28:31.600 --> 0:28:33.480
<v Speaker 3>Oh you be skeptical, you be wrong?

0:28:34.680 --> 0:28:36.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, there you go, he says. First of all,

0:28:36.480 --> 0:28:39.360
<v Speaker 1>what happened to the Ohio meet and greet just disappeared

0:28:39.400 --> 0:28:43.040
<v Speaker 1>and was never mentioned again. Bad job by you. Yeah, So, Scott,

0:28:43.080 --> 0:28:45.600
<v Speaker 1>we had some stuff worked out. We thought we had

0:28:45.680 --> 0:28:49.560
<v Speaker 1>an agreement on a venue and some other logistical things,

0:28:49.600 --> 0:28:52.280
<v Speaker 1>and then it all fell apart. And then there was

0:28:52.320 --> 0:28:56.760
<v Speaker 1>also some stuff where there were some conversations we had

0:28:56.880 --> 0:28:58.400
<v Speaker 1>not to get too much into how we make the

0:28:58.400 --> 0:29:01.720
<v Speaker 1>hot dogs, but with Ben versus the penny, and there

0:29:01.720 --> 0:29:04.040
<v Speaker 1>were some possibilities that that thing was going to get

0:29:04.040 --> 0:29:08.200
<v Speaker 1>picked up by a network during the season. So I

0:29:08.240 --> 0:29:10.440
<v Speaker 1>couldn't really commit to leaving because I had to be

0:29:10.440 --> 0:29:13.600
<v Speaker 1>available for that stuff. So anyway, of course, all that

0:29:13.640 --> 0:29:16.320
<v Speaker 1>did not work out. The deal that we had fell apart.

0:29:16.360 --> 0:29:19.479
<v Speaker 1>I am still planning on going to see Dick in Ohio,

0:29:19.640 --> 0:29:22.480
<v Speaker 1>Dick and Dayton, and hopefully we'll do something in the

0:29:22.520 --> 0:29:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Cincinnati area, although I have a feeling we'll probably have

0:29:26.000 --> 0:29:28.240
<v Speaker 1>to go right to Dayton to get a hold of

0:29:28.280 --> 0:29:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Dick and Dayton and all that stuff. But I do

0:29:30.120 --> 0:29:32.920
<v Speaker 1>plan on going once the weather gets better. Usually travel

0:29:33.120 --> 0:29:36.800
<v Speaker 1>start traveling after the weather's bad here in LA but

0:29:36.840 --> 0:29:41.320
<v Speaker 1>I normally start going on some road trips April. So

0:29:42.400 --> 0:29:44.959
<v Speaker 1>plan on something here. And if anybody has a venue

0:29:45.720 --> 0:29:51.240
<v Speaker 1>in the Cincinnati or northern Kentucky or Dayton area that

0:29:51.520 --> 0:29:53.640
<v Speaker 1>would be interested, it's going to be a few months away,

0:29:53.800 --> 0:29:57.080
<v Speaker 1>but reach out to us, let us know, and that'd

0:29:57.120 --> 0:30:00.880
<v Speaker 1>be great. And he said, my question is this, if

0:30:00.920 --> 0:30:03.240
<v Speaker 1>you had this is Scott. He says, if you had

0:30:03.320 --> 0:30:08.240
<v Speaker 1>to choose either hollering James whoopee pie Blair or blind

0:30:08.280 --> 0:30:11.280
<v Speaker 1>Scott to be handcuffed too for a week to get

0:30:11.320 --> 0:30:15.400
<v Speaker 1>five million dollars, but the other two get lifetime golden

0:30:15.400 --> 0:30:19.360
<v Speaker 1>tickets to the radio show, who are you choosing? And

0:30:19.440 --> 0:30:22.880
<v Speaker 1>you can't quit because of the five million, He says,

0:30:23.120 --> 0:30:26.600
<v Speaker 1>as always, I love the show, love the podcast. Mexican

0:30:26.720 --> 0:30:30.640
<v Speaker 1>John Dutton is still a Loraina simp even if he

0:30:30.760 --> 0:30:35.040
<v Speaker 1>blocked me on X for sending, So there you go. Okay,

0:30:36.720 --> 0:30:41.360
<v Speaker 1>Scott from northern Kentucky. So Scott, I would choose to

0:30:41.440 --> 0:30:45.440
<v Speaker 1>be handcuffed to hollering James. And here's why. I believe

0:30:45.560 --> 0:30:49.840
<v Speaker 1>James is harmless. And he would sleep eighteen to twenty

0:30:49.880 --> 0:30:51.600
<v Speaker 1>hours a day, so I'd only have to deal with

0:30:51.680 --> 0:30:52.920
<v Speaker 1>him for four hours a day.

0:30:53.480 --> 0:30:55.160
<v Speaker 3>It would be a lot of snoring involved.

0:30:55.480 --> 0:30:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, for blind Scott, I have no chance. Do I

0:30:59.800 --> 0:31:02.479
<v Speaker 1>want to be handcuffed to that? That lunatic And Blair's

0:31:02.520 --> 0:31:05.720
<v Speaker 1>a lunatic also, so I don't. I'm good on that.

0:31:05.960 --> 0:31:10.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm okay, let him call the show. That's that's it.

0:31:10.520 --> 0:31:13.400
<v Speaker 1>But a five million I would. I would absolutely be

0:31:13.440 --> 0:31:15.960
<v Speaker 1>handcuffed to hollering James for a week for five million,

0:31:16.800 --> 0:31:20.840
<v Speaker 1>No problem about that. Kirk from Vegas writes in on

0:31:20.880 --> 0:31:23.640
<v Speaker 1>the Fifth Hour podcast. He says, gentlemen, I know this

0:31:23.680 --> 0:31:25.920
<v Speaker 1>is not coast to coast, but you know that means

0:31:25.960 --> 0:31:28.960
<v Speaker 1>he's lying about that. He wanted to ask us about

0:31:28.960 --> 0:31:32.600
<v Speaker 1>this object that has been making the Rounds in Nevada,

0:31:33.240 --> 0:31:36.360
<v Speaker 1>says there was an object that crashed just outside Area

0:31:36.520 --> 0:31:42.560
<v Speaker 1>fifty one's military base and five five weeks after and

0:31:42.880 --> 0:31:46.680
<v Speaker 1>the crash has been covered up, both literally and figuratively.

0:31:48.120 --> 0:31:51.560
<v Speaker 1>And George Knapp, according to Kirk, who's a regular on

0:31:51.640 --> 0:31:54.160
<v Speaker 1>Coast to Coast, I think he hosted everyone on the weekends.

0:31:54.680 --> 0:31:58.120
<v Speaker 1>George Knapp thinks the official story as told by the

0:31:58.160 --> 0:32:04.480
<v Speaker 1>military is false. He said, this happened on September twenty third,

0:32:04.800 --> 0:32:08.120
<v Speaker 1>and it was just outside the boundary of Area fifty one,

0:32:09.280 --> 0:32:15.040
<v Speaker 1>and it was a crash retrieval. And so there's I

0:32:15.080 --> 0:32:16.400
<v Speaker 1>don't know, what do you want me to add to that, Kirk.

0:32:16.440 --> 0:32:18.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure there's all kinds of crazy stuff that would

0:32:18.560 --> 0:32:20.520
<v Speaker 1>make your mind explode if you knew what would happened

0:32:20.560 --> 0:32:21.440
<v Speaker 1>at Area fifty one.

0:32:22.040 --> 0:32:24.200
<v Speaker 3>You know what, This gives me an opportunity to bring

0:32:24.280 --> 0:32:29.280
<v Speaker 3>back up the Bermuda Triangle, Yeah, because I looked it

0:32:29.400 --> 0:32:32.480
<v Speaker 3>up after we mentioned it, and it says there is

0:32:32.520 --> 0:32:36.040
<v Speaker 3>no major breaking news regarding the Bermuda Triangle. So we

0:32:36.040 --> 0:32:40.200
<v Speaker 3>were right about that. Recent scientific discussions, though, I focused

0:32:40.200 --> 0:32:46.160
<v Speaker 3>on debunking the mystery with experts like oceanographer doctor Simon Boxel,

0:32:46.280 --> 0:32:51.360
<v Speaker 3>suggesting rogue waves and other natural phenomena are the most

0:32:51.440 --> 0:32:55.160
<v Speaker 3>likely causes for disappearances. So this whole thing here about

0:32:55.320 --> 0:32:59.960
<v Speaker 3>rogue waves, buying that, come on, it's more than rogue waves.

0:33:00.560 --> 0:33:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, how great?

0:33:02.000 --> 0:33:02.120
<v Speaker 3>Though.

0:33:02.200 --> 0:33:05.040
<v Speaker 1>The Area fifty one thing, if what Kirk is saying

0:33:05.120 --> 0:33:07.400
<v Speaker 1>is accurate, I have no reason to say it's not accurate,

0:33:07.640 --> 0:33:11.240
<v Speaker 1>is that that is a massive military base. They fly

0:33:11.400 --> 0:33:14.920
<v Speaker 1>people in from Vegas out to Area fifty one and

0:33:15.760 --> 0:33:19.840
<v Speaker 1>for whatever object crashed outside of the boundary. Imagine how

0:33:19.920 --> 0:33:22.640
<v Speaker 1>pissed off the people inside were. Oh man, we're just uts,

0:33:22.960 --> 0:33:26.160
<v Speaker 1>because they'll like shoot you if you get close to

0:33:26.240 --> 0:33:29.360
<v Speaker 1>that checkpoint outside Area fifty one. You can't get anywhere

0:33:29.400 --> 0:33:31.920
<v Speaker 1>near there. It's out in the middle of nowhere in

0:33:31.920 --> 0:33:35.240
<v Speaker 1>the Nevada desert. And then and then the thing crashes outside. Anyway,

0:33:36.640 --> 0:33:40.880
<v Speaker 1>what is next here? Blake from Encino Hey, down the

0:33:41.000 --> 0:33:43.840
<v Speaker 1>road in Sino Man. Eh, there you go. That's a

0:33:43.920 --> 0:33:47.320
<v Speaker 1>dated reference, right next door to beautiful Sherman Oaks where

0:33:47.360 --> 0:33:51.000
<v Speaker 1>we do our radio shows from. He says, there's a

0:33:51.040 --> 0:33:55.080
<v Speaker 1>new status shoe, gentlemen. He says, forget about Nike and

0:33:55.120 --> 0:33:59.880
<v Speaker 1>all that. The most worn shoe on private jets. The

0:34:00.360 --> 0:34:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Zegna triple stitch shoe. He wants to know if we're

0:34:04.680 --> 0:34:10.040
<v Speaker 1>interested in purchasing these shoes and they retail, Dan, have

0:34:10.120 --> 0:34:13.440
<v Speaker 1>you seen this? These shoes have been worn by everyone

0:34:13.560 --> 0:34:21.000
<v Speaker 1>from Apple CEO to powerful TV personalities. I've never heard

0:34:21.080 --> 0:34:22.600
<v Speaker 1>of these shoes.

0:34:22.920 --> 0:34:26.960
<v Speaker 3>I looked them up right now? Those aren't those are weak?

0:34:27.440 --> 0:34:32.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? They charge eleven hundred dollars for these shoes. Eleven

0:34:32.320 --> 0:34:35.480
<v Speaker 1>hundred dollars to these shoes. They've been spotted on the

0:34:35.520 --> 0:34:39.640
<v Speaker 1>red carpet by actors Hugh Jackman, Nicholas Cage and others.

0:34:39.680 --> 0:34:44.120
<v Speaker 1>They are laceless footwear, It says in the description casual

0:34:44.280 --> 0:34:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Cool Vibes. They you know what they look like the

0:34:48.560 --> 0:34:50.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of shoes and nurse would wear in a nursing

0:34:51.000 --> 0:34:54.080
<v Speaker 1>like a nursing home. Right, doesn't that look like something

0:34:54.080 --> 0:34:56.279
<v Speaker 1>you'd wear in a nursing home. Depending on the.

0:34:56.239 --> 0:34:58.480
<v Speaker 3>Color, well, they I'd rather have some Jordan's.

0:34:58.800 --> 0:35:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they say these shoes. They're very popular. There's no label,

0:35:03.080 --> 0:35:06.040
<v Speaker 1>a symbol of quiet luxury, and they come in all

0:35:06.040 --> 0:35:08.560
<v Speaker 1>different colors depending on what you want to wear. Whatever

0:35:08.680 --> 0:35:11.600
<v Speaker 1>your your outfit is, they have shoes to match eleven

0:35:11.680 --> 0:35:13.840
<v Speaker 1>hundred dollars. You can go to Costco and get shoes

0:35:13.880 --> 0:35:16.279
<v Speaker 1>for forty bucks that are just better than that.

0:35:16.640 --> 0:35:19.000
<v Speaker 3>Those Costco shoes look like forty dollars too.

0:35:19.160 --> 0:35:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, these look like the list look like you're ready

0:35:21.040 --> 0:35:22.520
<v Speaker 1>to work at a nursing home, or you're a patient

0:35:22.520 --> 0:35:25.080
<v Speaker 1>at a nursing home. Jack from Ohio rights and he

0:35:25.120 --> 0:35:28.360
<v Speaker 1>says Ben and Danny Gee a frustrated Bengals fan here,

0:35:28.680 --> 0:35:32.800
<v Speaker 1>I saw that. Another frustrated Bengal fan claims the front

0:35:32.840 --> 0:35:36.799
<v Speaker 1>office was defensive when he called up to cancel his

0:35:36.920 --> 0:35:41.040
<v Speaker 1>season tickets. What is that about? Well, Jack, it's kind

0:35:41.080 --> 0:35:42.040
<v Speaker 1>of obvious what that's about.

0:35:42.080 --> 0:35:42.239
<v Speaker 3>There.

0:35:42.239 --> 0:35:44.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm not in Cincinnati. It's not like the Bengals are

0:35:44.520 --> 0:35:46.520
<v Speaker 1>the Green Bay Packers. We have to wait fifty years

0:35:46.520 --> 0:35:50.759
<v Speaker 1>to get tickets. And if you imagine working in Cincinnati's

0:35:50.760 --> 0:35:53.719
<v Speaker 1>ticket office and you have to sell tickets. And we

0:35:53.800 --> 0:35:57.480
<v Speaker 1>know from just our job, we have listeners to try

0:35:57.480 --> 0:36:00.200
<v Speaker 1>to keep people listening, and it's very difficult to get

0:36:00.200 --> 0:36:05.560
<v Speaker 1>a new customer. Retaining existing customers is the most cost

0:36:05.680 --> 0:36:09.520
<v Speaker 1>effective way of doing business rather than getting new customers,

0:36:09.920 --> 0:36:13.560
<v Speaker 1>and studies have shown that getting a new customer can

0:36:13.600 --> 0:36:16.480
<v Speaker 1>cost five to seven times more than just retaining an

0:36:16.480 --> 0:36:19.919
<v Speaker 1>old customer. So yeah, that they're pissed because it's hard

0:36:19.920 --> 0:36:22.160
<v Speaker 1>to get people to buy Bengal To season tickets. And

0:36:22.200 --> 0:36:25.600
<v Speaker 1>then this whoever that is Jack bought the tickets and

0:36:25.640 --> 0:36:27.439
<v Speaker 1>now they don't want to buy him anymore, so they're

0:36:27.440 --> 0:36:30.000
<v Speaker 1>bowing out. And then they it's like they're pissed off

0:36:30.040 --> 0:36:33.279
<v Speaker 1>about that. I get it. What else do we have

0:36:33.320 --> 0:36:36.080
<v Speaker 1>to see? Page down? See where do we want to

0:36:36.120 --> 0:36:39.400
<v Speaker 1>go on this? Blah blah blah blah. I don't know.

0:36:39.440 --> 0:36:41.320
<v Speaker 1>I think we're I mean, there's a couple more here.

0:36:42.080 --> 0:36:44.359
<v Speaker 1>I'll do this. I'll get out on this. Tyler from

0:36:44.400 --> 0:36:47.719
<v Speaker 1>Salt Lake. I'm sorry to Chris and Chris and Milwaukee

0:36:48.080 --> 0:36:51.640
<v Speaker 1>and Rick from Austin. I'm gonna do this last one

0:36:51.680 --> 0:36:54.640
<v Speaker 1>from Tyler, He says, gentlemen, are you guys interested in

0:36:54.680 --> 0:36:59.080
<v Speaker 1>a mad Max Tesla? You better get it fast? Tyler says,

0:36:59.560 --> 0:37:02.320
<v Speaker 1>So did you know? I didn't know about this? Tyler

0:37:02.360 --> 0:37:07.560
<v Speaker 1>sent the story here. Tesla rolled out some new firmware, Danny,

0:37:07.600 --> 0:37:09.600
<v Speaker 1>do you know about this? They added a pair of

0:37:09.680 --> 0:37:15.280
<v Speaker 1>new driving modules. They have the self driving feature, the FSD,

0:37:15.440 --> 0:37:20.160
<v Speaker 1>the full self driving feature. One is called sloth, which

0:37:20.239 --> 0:37:23.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of is a casual, relaxed stand in the lane.

0:37:23.360 --> 0:37:26.759
<v Speaker 1>No no no no no no. Uh. The other, and

0:37:26.800 --> 0:37:30.279
<v Speaker 1>this is the one Tyler brought up, is called mad Max. Now,

0:37:30.280 --> 0:37:33.800
<v Speaker 1>this is the more aggressive model for Tesla. It actually

0:37:33.840 --> 0:37:38.680
<v Speaker 1>speeds through traffic, It swerves through cars to get to

0:37:38.680 --> 0:37:42.520
<v Speaker 1>get you to your destination faster while driving. It's the

0:37:42.520 --> 0:37:45.840
<v Speaker 1>one doing all the driving. And and so now people

0:37:46.080 --> 0:37:50.640
<v Speaker 1>at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration are starting to say,

0:37:50.680 --> 0:37:53.080
<v Speaker 1>what are you doing? You You've programmed a car to

0:37:53.200 --> 0:37:57.200
<v Speaker 1>speed and to drive aggressively and illegally. And so now

0:37:57.960 --> 0:38:00.400
<v Speaker 1>Tyler says, if you want this, you got to get

0:38:00.400 --> 0:38:02.360
<v Speaker 1>it quick because Tesla's going to have to get rid

0:38:02.400 --> 0:38:05.279
<v Speaker 1>of it because the FEDS are onto them. So, first

0:38:05.280 --> 0:38:06.759
<v Speaker 1>of all, I didn't know that was allowed. I thought

0:38:06.800 --> 0:38:08.840
<v Speaker 1>I just assumed that you wouldn't be able to do that, Danny,

0:38:09.320 --> 0:38:12.759
<v Speaker 1>because they generally look down upon programming a car to

0:38:12.840 --> 0:38:17.480
<v Speaker 1>drive like a lunatic. What is the liability on that

0:38:17.640 --> 0:38:20.760
<v Speaker 1>if you get into an accident in the FSD full

0:38:20.840 --> 0:38:24.280
<v Speaker 1>self driving mode, but you happen to choose the Mad Max,

0:38:25.080 --> 0:38:26.680
<v Speaker 1>like I don't know.

0:38:26.920 --> 0:38:29.359
<v Speaker 3>It's clearly the other driver's fault, so they didn't get

0:38:29.360 --> 0:38:29.959
<v Speaker 3>out of your way.

0:38:30.239 --> 0:38:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Obviously, without without a question, that is the case. But

0:38:34.200 --> 0:38:35.480
<v Speaker 1>are you going to the parade? Tomorrow?

0:38:35.520 --> 0:38:35.680
<v Speaker 3>Day?

0:38:35.960 --> 0:38:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Is Monday, right, Tomorrow's Monday, the Dodgers parade.

0:38:38.719 --> 0:38:40.680
<v Speaker 3>I mean no, I can't because I have to go

0:38:40.760 --> 0:38:42.000
<v Speaker 3>to the network to work.

0:38:42.280 --> 0:38:44.480
<v Speaker 1>All right, And I can't because I have to sleep,

0:38:44.600 --> 0:38:48.080
<v Speaker 1>so and I'm not a big parade guy. Anyway, I've

0:38:48.160 --> 0:38:50.040
<v Speaker 1>been to those in the past, when the Lakers. I

0:38:50.120 --> 0:38:51.960
<v Speaker 1>actually I was forced to go when the Lakers one,

0:38:52.040 --> 0:38:54.160
<v Speaker 1>I covered them when I was doing local radio.

0:38:54.400 --> 0:38:57.160
<v Speaker 3>Nobody forced you. You are a closet Lakers fan. We

0:38:57.200 --> 0:38:57.680
<v Speaker 3>all know that.

0:38:59.800 --> 0:39:04.360
<v Speaker 1>No, no, but it's very hot, and I remember the

0:39:04.440 --> 0:39:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Laker one there were no bathrooms. People were defecating outside

0:39:07.880 --> 0:39:11.200
<v Speaker 1>because they didn't put enough bathrooms in and all that.

0:39:11.520 --> 0:39:13.360
<v Speaker 3>It's going to be a beautiful Monday though.

0:39:13.719 --> 0:39:17.680
<v Speaker 1>In nice. I'm sure Dave Roberts will say something. He

0:39:17.760 --> 0:39:21.000
<v Speaker 1>avoided the Dave Roberts Janks memory. He said, let's go

0:39:21.080 --> 0:39:25.239
<v Speaker 1>ruin baseball. It won't anyway, if they lost, it would

0:39:25.280 --> 0:39:27.560
<v Speaker 1>have been well. Dave Roberts said, let's ruin baseball. And

0:39:27.560 --> 0:39:29.720
<v Speaker 1>then the Dodgers they went out there and they lost,

0:39:29.800 --> 0:39:33.279
<v Speaker 1>and his fault and all that stuff. So all right,

0:39:33.360 --> 0:39:35.520
<v Speaker 1>on that note, we will get out. Thanks to Ohio

0:39:35.560 --> 0:39:38.239
<v Speaker 1>al again, thanks to everyone that sent emails in. I'm

0:39:38.239 --> 0:39:40.600
