1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:01,440
Speaker 1: Kubbooms.

2
00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 2: If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 2: of the old Republic, a soul fashion of fairness. He

5
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the

6
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,480
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse.

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: Wow.

8
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 2: The Clearinghouse of Hot takes break free for something special.

9
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 2: The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now.

10
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 1: Here we go, here we go, Well, come in to

11
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: the Fifth Hour. We thank you for finding us. We

12
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 1: are in the air everywhere? Is a podcast in the

13
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,239
Speaker 1: air everywhere? Or is it in the digital network everywhere?

14
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how.

15
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 3: It's like Ghostbusters. It's trapped and then it's released into

16
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 3: the air everywhere. When the health inspector gets pissed off.

17
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 1: Does that mean we're a slimer? Is that what we are? Yes,

18
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 1: we are slimer. But then when it's broadcast, assuming that

19
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: you put it on an audio device that has speakers,

20
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: it is in the air like our voices in the

21
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: air everywhere. But if you listen with headphones then is

22
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: that still does that count as being I'm not sure

23
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: how that works. I don't know.

24
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, it does count your head as the antenna. Don't

25
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 3: worry though, It's totally healthy.

26
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, what could possibly go wrong? Nothing? Nothing. So what's

27
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 1: on the menu at the bistro today? Well, Benny's Bistro

28
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: no days off this Saturday, October twenty first, and here

29
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: we are back at the salt mine of audio content.

30
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: So on today's edition of the podcast. Now, I'm not

31
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: going to beg you to watch the TV show. I

32
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: did that on the Friday podcast, but it is still

33
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: airing all day to day. Here on Saturday, I've got

34
00:01:53,360 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: Espanol Payback. Walt would roll over foody fun backscratcher. And

35
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: that's probably all we have time. That's probably all we

36
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: have time for. But we will see, we will find out.

37
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: Who knows, maybe we'll have time for other things. But

38
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: we'll begin with this. The Chargers playing the Dallas Cowboys

39
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: back on Monday Night Football this past Monday. It was

40
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 1: big game Monday Night Football. I hadn't been to Monday

41
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: Night Football in years. I usually don't go on Monday

42
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: Night because I got get ready for the show. I

43
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: got to watch a million things, but I wanted to

44
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 1: see the Cowboys, I admit it. We talk a lot

45
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: about the Cowboys. Not a Cowboy fan, I don't have

46
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: any skin in the game. I'm not a Charger fan,

47
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: but the Cowboys are a team. You do sports radio

48
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: on a national network, you talk a lot about the

49
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. That's just the way it works. I don't

50
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 1: make the rules. I just follow the rules. So I

51
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: want to go out there and see the whole circus

52
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: that is the Dallas Cowboys. So I went to the

53
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 1: game on Monday night at Sofi Stadium. And another reason, Danny,

54
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: I really want to thank our bosses because they've encouraged

55
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: me to go to more games because they love me

56
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,119
Speaker 1: going into the studio, you know, not doing the show

57
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 1: from home. So I go in the studio a lot,

58
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: so that encourages me to get out in about I'm

59
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 1: there prime time in the hood in Englewood Sofi Stadium.

60
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: And the funniest thing happened. Went to a football game

61
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: and a comedy show broke out. So I touched on

62
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: this briefly on the radio show, but this is a

63
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: much better platform to explain exactly what happened and go

64
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: a little bit further in if you will go deeper

65
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: in the weeds. And so the setup with the headline

66
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: Soulfi Stadium and level seven we'll call it level seven.

67
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: That's where the working press boxes at SOFI Stadium. Level

68
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: seven sounds very high up, but Sofi Stadium is actually

69
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: it's in the ground. It's built into the because it

70
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: is right in the flight path of the flights going

71
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: to Lax for landing at Lax they fly right over

72
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: so far same so they couldn't have that high so

73
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: that that's why it's built into the ground. So the

74
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 1: four seven is where the press boxes that media free loading.

75
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 3: Are they sure safe for big California earthquakes?

76
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: No, it's safe until it's not. Isn't that how it works.

77
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: It's safe until it's not. So hanging out there and

78
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 1: working press box, so there's TV, radio and scribes ink

79
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: stained wretches. We're no longer inkstained because they just do

80
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,919
Speaker 1: everything digitally. There's no cheering in the press box. And

81
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 1: if you've never been to the press box, why would

82
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,840
Speaker 1: you be. You're not in the media chances are so

83
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: it's kind of like an office with cubicles. That's the

84
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 1: way I would describe It's like an office with cubicles.

85
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 1: There's a lot of food, because they want to meet

86
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: the media happy, so they fatten them up. There's no

87
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: you're no hard liquor. There used to be. In the

88
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: old days, they used to hand beer out after baseball games.

89
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: They don't really do that much anymore. The windows are

90
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:13,160
Speaker 1: all closed, so it's a very trying to think with

91
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 1: the proper proper word would be it's er. Yeah, yeah,

92
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: that's a good that's a good word.

93
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 3: That's great. Way.

94
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: It's lacking personality. You go to a stadium, you expect

95
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 1: it to be full of spirit, and it is and

96
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: nothing monotonous about it, full of joy. The press box is,

97
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: as you said, sterile. It's can be called dreary, unexciting, bland.

98
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: Those are all all words that you use, so that's

99
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,239
Speaker 1: the set. It's also very quiet normal. The only noise

100
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 1: you normally hear is the murmur of the PA announcer,

101
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 1: who after every play in the NFL game will say,

102
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:01,159
Speaker 1: you know, it's like the Chargers first and ten and

103
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: a pass complete to the you know, the forty five

104
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: yard line by X receiver, etcetera, etcetera. So that's about it,

105
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: but not on this line. Normally it's like a library,

106
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: but not on this line. It was different than all

107
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: other nights. And here's why. I had nothing to do

108
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,119
Speaker 1: with Ed Werder being there or the Dallas Cowboys media.

109
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 1: The reason this got crazy is because the Dallas Spanish

110
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 1: language radio broadcast team were not given their own booth.

111
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 1: I saw this online, yeah, so they set up inside

112
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: the main press box. Fact that you probably saw the

113
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: video from rash Marcazi, my old intern who was sitting

114
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 1: right next to me, and we were fascinated by this.

115
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: We were just blown away by this.

116
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 3: So what this.

117
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 1: Meant if you didn't see the video and you know

118
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: doing the story. So everybody in the room was every

119
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 1: one of the press box again normally. As Danny said,

120
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,239
Speaker 1: the great word, I wish I'd come up with it, sterile,

121
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 1: right press, not a lot of color, soulless, lackluster, all

122
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 1: those things, but full of energy, full of energy because

123
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 1: we all got treated to a live play by play

124
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: as the soundtrack. Somebody named Victor Villa Laba or Villa Laba,

125
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: I believe it's his name, and Luis Perez I know

126
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 1: how to say his name. The Spanish radio broadcasters for

127
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: the for the Cowboys called the game it was wild.

128
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: Victor and Luis our next level passion excitement. I speak Spanglish.

129
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 1: I don't even really speak Spanish, but I made out

130
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: a few things, and I just could tell how much

131
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: how much fun they were having. It was great, and

132
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: everyone in a while they'd have to say a word

133
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: in English, like American Airlines or some sponsor of the Cowboys.

134
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 1: But they were into right. But now now we give

135
00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: you some scoopage only available because I was boots on

136
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: the ground just down the aisleway from where these guys reappen.

137
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: So's here's the inside skin. A little birdie who likes

138
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: to chirp and loves burritos and text Mechs tells me

139
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: is it true that this was a case of Espanol payback?

140
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 1: Say what?

141
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 3: Yeah?

142
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: So here's here's what My source, who may or may

143
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: not be connected to this situation, informs me that years ago,

144
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:47,079
Speaker 1: and was really that.

145
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 3: Long ago, the.

146
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys in Jerry's World forced the Chargers Spanish radio

147
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: team to broad cast without a booth at Jerry's World.

148
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 1: And so is it true that big shots with the

149
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: Chargers decided to go with the eye for an eye strategy?

150
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: Is it also true that it's hilarious that multi billion

151
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:26,439
Speaker 1: dollar NFL franchises would be so petty to have payback.

152
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, that's just what I'm hearing, but that

153
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: is quite the tail.

154
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:31,439
Speaker 3: And it was.

155
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 1: It was wild. It was so so good, especially when

156
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 1: the Cowboys scored a touchdown or two. Oh my god,

157
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 1: they didn't score very many points, neither team did. It

158
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,719
Speaker 1: was twenty to seventeen. But when the Cowboys scored some touchdowns,

159
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: they really got they got going. They those boys got going.

160
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 3: They did so and there were so many flags in

161
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 3: that game. You should be able to say that in Spanish.

162
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 1: I know, I know. It was you get a flag,

163
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: you get a flag, You get a flag. Walt would

164
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: roll over, Danny g Walt would roll over.

165
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't know if Walt Disney was much of

166
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 3: a football fan. No, although he was a baseball fan.

167
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 3: Ben because a little known fact, Dodger Stadium consulted him

168
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 3: and sat down with him way back in the day,

169
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 3: and they based a lot of their structure on the

170
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 3: way Disneyland looked. Yes, Dodger Stadium signage looks similar to Disneyland.

171
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I don't know that Walt Disney was a

172
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: football fan. But the Oregon Ducks, who today I believe

173
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 1: are wearing their their Oregon Duck, the old school Duck logo,

174
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: which was that's Donald Duck.

175
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 2: Right.

176
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 1: Disney loaned allowed they allowed them to use Donald Duck,

177
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: but they couldn't make any money from selling the image

178
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: of Donald Duck right on their on their uniforms.

179
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 3: Wow.

180
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: Nowt me ask you, does Walt Disney is he the

181
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: reason that Dodger Stadium had no drinking fountains when it opened?

182
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 1: Is that Walt Disney's the don't.

183
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 3: Know about that one. Okay, I do know though that

184
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 3: like you go, I forget what that's the suitet level

185
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 3: in the broadcasting box level where you can see the

186
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 3: Dodger Museum. Yeah, and I would suggest you do that

187
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 3: if you ever visit Dodger Stadium, because you can see

188
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 3: a lot of what Dodger Stadium first looked like, really

189
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,839
Speaker 3: cool photos and memorabilia all throughout that little museum.

190
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,719
Speaker 1: And they also have still I don't know if they'll

191
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 1: have it next year because the season's over because the

192
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: Dodgers sucked in the playoffs, But they have that bullpen

193
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 1: cart from the nineteen seventies.

194
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 3: That's right.

195
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:36,839
Speaker 1: You can check that.

196
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 3: Out it's kind of cool. Yeah, jump inside of it

197
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 3: and see what security does. So Walt Disney, though, Ben,

198
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 3: I don't think he intended the park prices to be

199
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,599
Speaker 3: what they are right now. Now, I'm not going to

200
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 3: rant on this. I just want no.

201
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: You don't think Walt Disney wanted to rob and pillage

202
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 1: the people go to Disneyland. You don't think Wall would

203
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: have signed off on that.

204
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 3: Now, I got a little quiz for you, because yesterday

205
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 3: my girl she sat me down at the kitchen table

206
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 3: and she said, got to talk to you about something. Oh.

207
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 3: As a guy, You're like, uh, oh, what did I do?

208
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 3: But it was just about Christmas. She said, I want

209
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 3: to like start planning it now because I think it

210
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 3: would actually save us some money if we just do

211
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 3: a little family trip to Disneyland for Christmas, rather than

212
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 3: all the presents and all that full blown Christmas tree stuff,

213
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 3: we can do a Disney trip. And I said, okay,

214
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:41,079
Speaker 3: that sounds good. We've actually done that before. But prices

215
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 3: have gone even higher. How much do you think it

216
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 3: will cost to bring the four kids in? Obviously co

217
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 3: is free, so four kids to Disneyland, we got to

218
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 3: pay for three of them. So five of us got

219
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 3: to pay for one day at California adventure Land in

220
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 3: one day at Disneyland. These are not even park hoppers

221
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,439
Speaker 3: where you go back and forth if you want to.

222
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 3: This is just one day at one one day at

223
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 3: the other, a Saturday and a Sunday. How much do

224
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 3: you think that is? All right?

225
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,839
Speaker 1: So there's five people. I have no idea how much

226
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 1: this stuff costs. So I'm just gonna I'm gonna do

227
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: some malor math back. I've got a pen here, and

228
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: I've got a number in my head which I think

229
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: it's going to cost. See, the problem is that I

230
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 1: go too high. That ruins the bit times five. This

231
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: is five paying customers, all right? You want me to

232
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,199
Speaker 1: give the full amount that I think just the ticket cost,

233
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: all right?

234
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 3: So look out for the tickets for the weekend.

235
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: I think the tickets will be a I think I

236
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 1: will buy what one hundred and seventy five? So I

237
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 1: think at eight eight seventy five.

238
00:13:55,400 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 3: Okay, eight seventy five, No, try fifteen hundred and sixty

239
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 3: five dollars?

240
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 1: What the are you kidding me? I'm not kidding Wait,

241
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: So I wrote down here on the piece of paper.

242
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 1: I wrote down one hundred and seventy five dollars a ticket,

243
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: So how much? How much is the tickets?

244
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 3: She just showed me the ticket.

245
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 1: What's what's the number?

246
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 3: Fifteen hundred and sixty five dollars is what she showed

247
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 3: me on her calculator.

248
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 1: Oh my god, no way, We'll do the divide. I

249
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 1: haven't done this much mass as I was at Saddleback.

250
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: So then you do the divide here divided by five.

251
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: Holy shit, that's holy shit balls, dad gummt that is

252
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: three hundred and twelve dollars per per member of the

253
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 1: Danny g family.

254
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, welcome to Disneyland, ladies and gentlemen. Now it gets better. Well,

255
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 3: let's do a little bit of Walt Disney trivia for you. Now, Yeah,

256
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 3: all right, what did Walt charge on day one on

257
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 3: opening day of the park.

258
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 1: You know, I know this because my parents got to

259
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: go to Disneyland when they were younger. It was like

260
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 1: it was like fifty cents or something, some ridiculous amount

261
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 1: of money. But I think you had to pay per ride.

262
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: I think that's there were tickets. Yeah, there were ride tickets,

263
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: but to get into the park.

264
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 3: On July seventeenth, nineteen fifty five, Disneyland's opening day, the

265
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 3: theme park entrance was one dollar per guest one dollar

266
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 3: one dollar. Now, one dollar in nineteen fifty five would

267
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 3: be equivalent to buying a ticket for eleven dollars and

268
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 3: twelve cents last year.

269
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 1: So I was gonna do the same thing. So let

270
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 1: me see what I want to come up. So this

271
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: was when did it open nineteen? What year was it?

272
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 3: Nineteen fifty five?

273
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 1: Nineteen fifty five?

274
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 3: And it says it's the equivalent to buying a ticket

275
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 3: for eleven dollars and twelve cents in the year twenty twenty.

276
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: Two, okay, and I'll update it for twenty twenty three.

277
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: I just I have a calculator here. It's on the interweb.

278
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 1: It's Usinflation Calculator dot com. It's the website I'm using.

279
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 1: So nineteen fifty five, if in nineteen fifty five I

280
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: purchased an item for one dollar, then in twenty twenty three,

281
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: the same item would cost eleven dollars and forty eight cents.

282
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 1: What is going on?

283
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 3: Oh man? So the tickets should actually be eleven dollars

284
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,480
Speaker 3: and forty eight cents to get into that park if

285
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 3: they stayed true to Walt Disney's vision when he first

286
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 3: opened it.

287
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 1: Now or or if they had a CEO like Costco right,

288
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 1: if they had, because Costco, the hot dog drink at

289
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: Costco when they started that in nineteen eighty five was

290
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 1: a dollar fifty. Today it's a dollar fifty. They will

291
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 1: not raise the price. It's a loss leader at Costco.

292
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,800
Speaker 1: Clearly not run like the people at Disneyland. Or what's

293
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 1: the other one that arizona iced tea. Isn't that the

294
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 1: same price it's always been. They'd never raised the price

295
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 1: of arizona iced tea.

296
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 3: They're still in business. How do they do it?

297
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 1: I know, I know. And the thing about these experiences,

298
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 1: and I know the generations before us, Daddy, are all

299
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,360
Speaker 1: about the experience. I get that. You know, we're we're

300
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: a little different. Although I don't mind a good experience.

301
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,920
Speaker 1: It just blows me, like I go to these baseball

302
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 1: games and I see how much all these NFL games,

303
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 1: and I see how much they charge will Last week

304
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: we talked about it on the twenty dollars thing. I

305
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,679
Speaker 1: had twenty bucks to spend at the concession stand and

306
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 1: everything was ridiculous, and I was like, this is offensive

307
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 1: to me. This is terrible. So I ended up getting

308
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: three pretzels because that was the most bang for my buck,

309
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:39,479
Speaker 1: three soft pretzels that took twenty dollars of my money.

310
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 1: I am such a radio loser.

311
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 3: I don't think it would bother all of us the

312
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 3: way it does if our jobs kept up with the

313
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 3: inflation and the uptick and all these prices, the cost

314
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 3: of living keeps going up, wages seem to stay exactly

315
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 3: the same.

316
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they know. Go and my experience over the years,

317
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: and I'm not naming any companies, but some I've worked

318
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:06,879
Speaker 1: for over the years. When you ask for a raise,

319
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: they they always have some kind of excuse. It's the economy,

320
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,679
Speaker 1: or we didn't get this, or we didn't get that.

321
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: You know, it's always some. It's always some. So well,

322
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 1: that's are you gonna now you're going to actually spend

323
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,479
Speaker 1: the fifteen hundred dollars? Are you going to get a

324
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: third job?

325
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,199
Speaker 3: With four kids? I think that still is probably a

326
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,719
Speaker 3: better deal than doing a full blown Christmas with all

327
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 3: the gifts. Probably will bite the bullet and do it.

328
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 3: My WIFEI obviously wants a lot of baby pictures with

329
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 3: CoA at the park, and I get that. My mom

330
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 3: did that with me when I was a little kid,

331
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 3: and you know, it's a family tradition. Disneyland is a

332
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 3: big deal on my side of the family and my

333
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 3: girl's side of the family. That's the thing, man, when

334
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 3: it's kind of built into your family, you're going to

335
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 3: pay the price. You're gonna pay the piper man.

336
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I want you to know, well, I grew

337
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: up in Orange County and I went to Disneyland a

338
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:11,919
Speaker 1: lot because I lived close to it, and when I

339
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 1: was a kid, it was somewhat reasonably priced to go

340
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 1: to Disneyland. It was they had not completely gone off

341
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 1: their rocker like they've done over the last twenty years

342
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 1: or so. When I was younger, we would go quite

343
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 1: a bit my passes because it was pretty affordable. It

344
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:30,639
Speaker 1: was close, and you're like, you live near Disneyland, you

345
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 1: might as well take advantage of it. But I'm pretty

346
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 1: much over it at this point. But my wife loves

347
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:45,119
Speaker 1: the holiday decorations at Disneyland, huge fan, and so she

348
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 1: wants to go between Now She's even willing to do

349
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 1: the Halloween thing, but I don't think that's going to

350
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: happen because of my schedule.

351
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:53,920
Speaker 3: Of the work.

352
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 1: So I think I'll maybe take a day in December

353
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: and November or when they put the Christmas stuff up

354
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 1: and you know all that crap. So I'll probably end

355
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 1: up going around around then. So who knows, maybe we'll

356
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,120
Speaker 1: end up at the same same spot, same day, and ever.

357
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 3: We could compare notes and you'll be like, I got

358
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 3: another soft pretzel at this time at Disneyland, and it

359
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 3: was seventeen dollars and it was five dollars for the

360
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 3: melted cheese. Yeah.

361
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,679
Speaker 1: Well, and you know my and we've talked about this

362
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 1: as well. I'm a very frugal man, very simple man,

363
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 1: and I have with my wife, we have a agreement

364
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 1: here with these kind of things. We take the old

365
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: I think this was the old slogan they had in

366
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 1: the military, don't ask, don't tell, which was I think

367
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 1: that was the Bill Clinton in his years there in

368
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,880
Speaker 1: the military. It's like, don't and that come. I'm talking

369
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: about prices. If I know how much I'm spending on something,

370
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,400
Speaker 1: I am not going to enjoy it as much because

371
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna the whole time I want to be thinking

372
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,399
Speaker 1: about how much I'm spending. And there's no way to

373
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: sugarcoat it. There's no way. Like we went in Vegas

374
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 1: last weekend. We went to this pretty nice Italian restaurant

375
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: that some fugazy TV chef in one of those places

376
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,199
Speaker 1: is they opened to put their name on it. I'm

377
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:21,399
Speaker 1: sure they had nothing to do with it. They put

378
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 1: their name on it. So we went to this place

379
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 1: and I happen to see how much the food was,

380
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,400
Speaker 1: and I was like, holy crap. I mean, shouldn't shouldn't

381
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 1: I when I take a dump, shouldn't I get to

382
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 1: take the dump and then take that to the bank

383
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 1: as gold bars? You know, like that kind of thing. Yeah,

384
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 1: because so, yeah, we'll see, we'll see how that goes.

385
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 1: What I really need is the company. And don't they

386
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,160
Speaker 1: do Here's here's the way for you and the wife

387
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,400
Speaker 1: and and CoA to go a little cheat code, right,

388
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:54,280
Speaker 1: don't they do the radio company? The people at iHeart.

389
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: Don't they do a night at Disneyland around the.

390
00:21:56,560 --> 00:22:03,160
Speaker 3: Holidays inside California Adventure. It's not inside Disneyland. Oh it's

391
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 3: a little bit of a bummer. Yeah, they hold their

392
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 3: special company events inside the smaller park California Adventure. It's okay,

393
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 3: but it's not Disneyland, not the original. You want the original,

394
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 3: you want the og.

395
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I guess you got some money here. Moving on,

396
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 1: we got a little foody fun for you. And these

397
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: are some random food stories. And this has become pretty popular,

398
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 1: Danny and I've determined, after a minute's long malor investigation,

399
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: the reason this is popular is because people like eat.

400
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:37,919
Speaker 1: That's what I've did.

401
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you're a guy who did the song yesterday

402
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 3: that was on yesterday's podcast what's his name?

403
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 1: Oh Joe from Richmond, our friend Joe Joe.

404
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 3: I think you should limit your music down to like

405
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 3: twenty seconds and do a foodie fun open.

406
00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:01,359
Speaker 1: Okay, well, but then you're impeting on Ohio territory. But yeah,

407
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: if Joe wants to send in a little short jingle

408
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 1: for the food e fun hey something like that.

409
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I don't think Ohio l would mind because

410
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 3: he has like, you know, six of the seven opens

411
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 3: right now pretty.

412
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 1: Much pretty much Ohio al has provided us with great,

413
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: great audio.

414
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 3: And also I say that because the guy yesterday should

415
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,440
Speaker 3: only be singing in twenty second blocks.

416
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,919
Speaker 1: Now, that's not help all right, That's okay? Those are

417
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 1: original lyrics, you know. Well, they're actually they're written to

418
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 1: the ram song, but they were the lyrics were all his. Yeah,

419
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 1: and I couldn't write a song. I wouldn't know how

420
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: to write a song at all.

421
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 3: You could probably sing it better, but yeah, wow.

422
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 1: Only one I can do. My only song is for

423
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 1: He's a jolly good Fellow, For He's a jolly good fellow,

424
00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: For He's a jolly good fellow. Was nobody can and

425
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,360
Speaker 1: I arf erferf.

426
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 3: I'm not buying that you could sing all the Blues

427
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 3: Brothers songs.

428
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,639
Speaker 1: Well, rubber Biscuit. I knew that line. I did the

429
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 1: Blues Brother's Rubber Biscuit back of there. You got two

430
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 1: slices of bread and you wish you had some meat.

431
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 2: Wow wow wow wow.

432
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the line that lie. I remember that line.

433
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,120
Speaker 3: Uh, maybe you shouldn't be singing in twenty second blocks either.

434
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: Got your mouth? How dare you so foody? Fun? Well,

435
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: this actually reference is something I said earlier. It must

436
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: have been in the back of my head. Costco is

437
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:35,120
Speaker 1: getting a new CEO and people in the business world

438
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: are freaking out here, the saying, wait a minute, is

439
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: this new leadership at Costco going to kill the one

440
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 1: dollar and fifty hot dog, the all beef hot dog

441
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:50,399
Speaker 1: combo with a drink, And nobody knows yet whether or

442
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 1: not the UH Costco food court staple is going to

443
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 1: go away. Now. I read a little bit about this

444
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 1: guy because this is a story close to my heart.

445
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 1: I love the Costco because, as we talked about, there's

446
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,680
Speaker 1: not much that's a deal anymore, and this is one

447
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,400
Speaker 1: of the places that's a deal. And so we dug around.

448
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:12,920
Speaker 1: I dug around on the dark web, and I am

449
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 1: betting that it is a I'll put I put the

450
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 1: odds on this. The Malor sportsbook gods ninety seven percent chance,

451
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 1: ninety seven percent chance that the one dollar and fifty

452
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:30,119
Speaker 1: hot dog combo stays the same, that they're not going

453
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,639
Speaker 1: to raise the price. Now with inflation, since we like,

454
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: let me, let me get the inflation calculator. So let's

455
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:40,679
Speaker 1: do the math on this. They started charging a dollar

456
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: fifty in nineteen eighty five, so with let me do

457
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 1: the math on this. Nineteen eighty five. Boy, this is

458
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: a lot of math. Nineteen eighty five one dollar and

459
00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 1: fifty cents, so let's call that okay. So with inflation,

460
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:06,920
Speaker 1: the hot dog just based on normal inflation. The hot

461
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:11,640
Speaker 1: dog drink combo at Costco should cost you four dollars

462
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 1: in twenty nine cents, but they have not.

463
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 3: Raised and I don't think it's worth four dollars in

464
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 3: whatever sense.

465
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 1: No, it's a big hot dog, that's a that's you know.

466
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, but when you know what a hot dog is,

467
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 3: it's only worth a dollar fifty. I hear, I hear.

468
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 1: But the main reason I believe this guy is going

469
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: to continue the tradition, much like Arizona iced tea ninety

470
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,400
Speaker 1: nine cents cans of iced tea, is because this guy

471
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 1: the new CEO that takes over in February, not February.

472
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,760
Speaker 1: It's what I forget the date. I wrote it down somewhere.

473
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 1: This guy has worked at Costco for more than forty years, okay,

474
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 1: and he started as a forkliff driver.

475
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 3: So if you're he gets it, DN he knows the vibe.

476
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Like, if you're a forklet driver,

477
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 1: you're you're a regular dude, even though you're a CEO.

478
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:09,680
Speaker 1: Now you know how important that dollar fifty hot dog

479
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 1: and drink is, and you're not gonna You're not gonna

480
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,639
Speaker 1: give that away or get rid of that, you're not

481
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 1: gonna do it. Well, here's something that is time sensitive.

525
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 1: you like that Big Mac?

526
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 3: Uh back when it was really a big Mac, it's

527
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 3: like a shriveled Mac nowadays when you order it.

528
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, so the Big Mac sauce very pop there.

529
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,200
Speaker 3: Oh I like that. Yeah.

530
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 1: Yeah. So I've heard this in the past, and I

531
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 1: think we talked about this on the podcast. But there's

532
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 1: a former McDonald's corporate chef who of course is on TikTok,

533
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: and he has announced that the people have been trying

534
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 1: to find the Big Max sauce. You know, can you

535
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: get the saw They love the sauce and all that,

536
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 1: they can't get enough. So the guy claims that if

537
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 1: you go to Walmart, they have the great value secret sauce,

538
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 1: which is Big Max sauce. Interesting to this guy, if

539
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 1: you want to make a homemade Big Mac, this ex

540
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 1: McDonald's chef claiming you can find Big Max sauce at Walmart.

541
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: He claims that they sell it. It's almost identical. It's

542
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: got all the same ingredients. And this is what we

543
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 1: heard last time we talked about these great value things

544
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 1: at Walmart, they had a ripoff Chick fil a sauce

545
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 1: and a ripoff raising cane sauce. So they're there. I mean,

546
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 1: it's all and it's nondescript. It's just a I've been

547
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 1: at Walmart many times and I've seen them right next

548
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 1: to the name brand ketchups and all that. So you

549
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 1: really got to love that big Max sauce though, to

550
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,320
Speaker 1: be like, I'm going to go to Walmart today to

551
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 1: get some sauce.

552
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 3: You know, I was gonna say this. The last time

553
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 3: I stepped in a Walmart, I had to take a hot,

554
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 3: a long hot shower afterwards.

555
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, my wife's not a fan of that. Don't mind

556
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 1: my head down, head down, boots on the ground, one

557
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 1: foot in front of the other, and.

558
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 3: You move on.

559
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: Well, Cheetos, here's a new item that is getting high

560
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: reviews from the food critics. Cheetos pretzels, a savory snack.

561
00:31:56,320 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 1: Any interest in eating a Cheetos pretzels?

562
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 3: Interesting?

563
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: There's the flaming hot version and then there's the regular, cheddared,

564
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 1: cheddared version.

565
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 3: They oh, so it must be hard pretzels, like little

566
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 3: hard pretzels. Yeah, the little hard pretzels, gotcha? Nah, I

567
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 3: don't think so. You're good on that, Yeah.

568
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 1: But what's good though, is to combine the Cheetos, which

569
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 1: and the good news about Cheetos is no cheese was

570
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 1: actually harmed with Cheetos. That's a good thing that no

571
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 1: cheese was actually harmed in any way. But you get

572
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,080
Speaker 1: the Cheetos and then you get like chocolate, like milk

573
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 1: chocolate on the other side, like a Hershey's bar or

574
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 1: something like that. That's a solid combo. That is a

575
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,800
Speaker 1: that is the right mix. But they're trying all kinds

576
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: of new things apparently over there, the Cheetos people, and

577
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 1: they're they're doing whatever they can, so that that's that's

578
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 1: going on. What else do we have here, Well, here's

579
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 1: a possible federal law violation in Foody Fun and this

580
00:32:56,840 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 1: involves Reese's rappers that might have violated federal law. Hershey's

581
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: there in some trouble with this Reese's rapper. It features

582
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 1: the brand's mascot, Cuppy. Did you know Reese's pieces mascot

583
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 1: was named Cuppy?

584
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 3: No?

585
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: No, you learned something new. That's why you're tuned in

586
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: the podcast. Anyway, they're running I didn't know this either.

587
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 1: They're running a twenty five thousand dollars sweepstakes under the

588
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 1: name Reese's University, and it's advertised on the package on

589
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: some of the products here. But according it's not your

590
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 1: ordinary promotion because they're in some trouble here. It comes

591
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 1: down to the fine print or the lack thereof of

592
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 1: fine print. You know what this sounds like. Sounds like

593
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 1: some of the other great scams we've had. There was

594
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 1: a documentary it was the Was it the Pepsi Fighters?

595
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:57,760
Speaker 1: Was that? Yeah?

596
00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 3: It was the Pepsi Fighter jet promotion.

597
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. So here's the problem. It says no purchase necessary,

598
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 1: and it says here we've all seen and heard the

599
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,280
Speaker 1: phrase a lot that's because state and ferral laws dictate

600
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: the rules for sweepstakes and they require that no purchase

601
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 1: is necessary in order to participate. If you had to

602
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,359
Speaker 1: buy something to enter the sweepstakes, then it becomes a

603
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:26,759
Speaker 1: lottery system, and lotteries have separate red tape. So the

604
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: problem is that Reese's packaging advertising the sweepstakes does not

605
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 1: make any reference, any clear reference that you don't have

606
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 1: to buy the Reese's Pieces cup to enter the contest. Hello,

607
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,280
Speaker 1: you know what this sounds like to me? This sounds

608
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 1: like lawsuit ambulance chasing lawsuits. What that sounds like to me.

609
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 1: We'll we'll see what happens with that. I mean, there's

610
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,759
Speaker 1: a bunch of other random like the random thinks you

611
00:34:55,840 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 1: with Jamal Murray's meal returns to KFC. I didn't even

612
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,800
Speaker 1: know Jamal Murray the Nuggets had a meal at KFC.

613
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:04,760
Speaker 1: How did that happen?

614
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 3: That must be in the greater Denver area.

615
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 1: It says limit edition leather jacket is part of this

616
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:16,960
Speaker 1: thing here and a new leather jacket with the number

617
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 1: twenty seven on it. It says the meal is eclusely

618
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:25,720
Speaker 1: available on the KFC APPKFC dot com through December thirty. First,

619
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,080
Speaker 1: it does not say here in this story. I'm looking
