WEBVTT - Run To You 0:00:00.760 --> 0:00:05.520 Kaboom. If you thought four hours a day, minutes a 0:00:05.559 --> 0:00:09.320 week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants of 0:00:09.360 --> 0:00:13.000 the old republic a sole fashion of fairness. He treats 0:00:13.000 --> 0:00:15.880 crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as the rich 0:00:15.920 --> 0:00:20.280 pill poppers in the penthouse, to clearinghouse of hot takes, 0:00:20.360 --> 0:00:24.160 break free for something special. The Fifth Hour with Ben 0:00:24.200 --> 0:00:32.800 Maller starts right now. We are in the air everywhere 0:00:32.840 --> 0:00:37.920 another Saturday. Additionally, Fifth Hour with Ben Maller and Danny 0:00:38.000 --> 0:00:43.480 g back in the Magic Podcast Studio. I know you're saying, no, no, enough, 0:00:44.080 --> 0:00:50.120 hell no, oh, We're here anyway to dazzle you eight 0:00:50.320 --> 0:00:54.080 days a week, a spinoff of the Overnight Show, which 0:00:54.120 --> 0:00:57.280 is available as you know, five nights a week, typically 0:00:57.360 --> 0:01:00.080 five nights a week, and then the podcast Friday, a, 0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:04.240 Saturday and Sunday and Danny, I know we've got a 0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:05.800 lot to get to here in a limited amount of 0:01:05.840 --> 0:01:07.959 time on the Saturday Podcast, but I gotta tell you 0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:10.840 we've had some crazy people on this podcast. I've been 0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:13.240 doing this a few years now, and I'm talking like 0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:16.479 Lenny Dikstra, guys like that that are really out there, 0:01:17.480 --> 0:01:21.720 and my guy Scott Farrell who I've known for years, 0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:25.800 my radio brother from a different mother. I gotta tell you, Danny, 0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:27.680 I'm still trying to recover. This is one of the 0:01:27.720 --> 0:01:31.920 most amazing conversations I've had with Farrell. And if anybody 0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:33.480 missed that, if you if you're listening, is like I 0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:35.679 missed the Friday podcast, you gotta go back and listen 0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:38.880 to it, because Scott was in a hotel room in 0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:43.760 Atlantic City and it began with that. And I'm just 0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:47.400 happy we were on the podcast because Danny, I don't 0:01:47.440 --> 0:01:50.120 I don't know how much of that was consumption for 0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:53.720 like terrestrial radio, but but boy, Scott, he has a 0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:56.560 gift for gab. That guy. He was out of control. 0:01:56.840 --> 0:01:59.280 I gotta tell you. Been doing the post production on 0:01:59.480 --> 0:02:02.880 that episode. I think it's gonna be one of the 0:02:02.960 --> 0:02:07.040 most dreamed editions of the Fifth Hour. Yeah, because when 0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:10.240 I posted the photo, uh that you took of me 0:02:10.280 --> 0:02:13.079 and Farrell and then with with Pat McAfee, you would 0:02:13.120 --> 0:02:15.600 have thought that the biggest reaction would have been for 0:02:15.680 --> 0:02:19.480 Pat McAfee because he's the hundred million dollar guy in radio. 0:02:19.560 --> 0:02:22.240 He's the big name in the business right now. But no, 0:02:22.320 --> 0:02:24.720 I had much more reaction, not that you judge these 0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:27.440 things off that, but on social media people were like 0:02:27.520 --> 0:02:30.000 fired off Horrell Man. I grew up listening to him, 0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:33.080 and you know, I feel like I've I've inherited a 0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:37.640 number of Scott's listeners. And Scott finally retired from from 0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:41.519 just doing nighttime radio, and if you listen to the podcast, 0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:45.840 he goes into great detail about how that has impacted 0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:50.800 his life, doing a life of nighttime radio, and uh, 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:53.000 you know, it was, it was, it was interesting. But 0:02:53.240 --> 0:02:56.480 people really love Scott. I think he's worked the last 0:02:56.520 --> 0:02:58.960 couple of years kind of a smaller place, a smaller shop, 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:01.240 and so I think some people lost track of him. 0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:04.320 But to me, you should never really be able to 0:03:04.320 --> 0:03:06.440 lose track of people, Danny with social media, but people 0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:10.400 do people for whatever reason, Uh they don't follow certain 0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:13.320 guys or whatever. But but anyways, fun So on this 0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:18.320 edition of The Fifth Hour with Ben and Danny, we've 0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:24.200 got drive Time Benny, the Power of Fats, eating a 0:03:24.320 --> 0:03:28.760 ship sandwich. That'll be it'll be interesting, Survey says, and 0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:30.679 whatever else. We have a few other things that we 0:03:30.800 --> 0:03:34.800 might get to depending on the timing of it all, 0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:38.200 but we must start. I was very excited this week, 0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:43.040 a rare inappropriate opportunity to sit in for one of 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:47.000 the big titans in the business, Dan Patrick. And when 0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:49.560 I got called by my boss and they said, hey, uh, 0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:52.160 you know, we're having some different people fill in for Dan, 0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:55.040 and your name came up and we were wondering if 0:03:55.040 --> 0:03:58.440 you're interested, I immediately thought I was being punked, and 0:03:58.520 --> 0:04:01.200 I thought that this was a joke and that there's 0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:03.880 gonna be like jokes on you, loser, But no, it 0:04:03.880 --> 0:04:05.760 turned out to be true, and I would like to 0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:09.400 thank Danny all of the p ones who crossed over. 0:04:09.440 --> 0:04:13.080 We had a great turnout of Mallard Militia foot Soldiers, 0:04:13.720 --> 0:04:16.160 and it was a rather hectic week. I'm still not 0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:18.800 quite over it as we are doing this podcast right 0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:23.080 now because um my sleep schedule. I've been a pretty 0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:27.760 good routine and I'm in a bizarro world where like 0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:31.960 up is down, right is left. It's just trying to 0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:34.600 trying to get back on track here. My bio rhythms 0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:36.760 are all messed up. But that's the first world problem 0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:38.920 to and you deal with that all the time, Danny, 0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:41.600 and you you do radio in addition to everything else 0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:43.320 you've got going on, you have like a real grown 0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:45.200 up job. I guess we can work with the kids, 0:04:45.440 --> 0:04:47.400 but but no. So it was it was fun to 0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:50.320 fill in for Dan and uh work with Rob Park 0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:52.720 A big fan of Rob. People said I kissed his 0:04:52.760 --> 0:04:55.120 ass too much. He kissed my ass a little bit too. 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:58.440 So it was like a mutual admiration society. And that 0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:00.919 shows a big deal. That's a very profitable show for 0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:05.120 the company. They have big sexy sponsors like Mercedes Benz 0:05:05.600 --> 0:05:08.599 on that show, so you know that's not and that's 0:05:08.600 --> 0:05:10.400 not a chump show. You know, that's a big show 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:14.040 for the company. And Dan's a Hall of Famer Dan Patrick, 0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:16.799 So getting a chance to fill in. It's morning Drive 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:21.000 in the number one radio market Los Angeles in the 0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:25.840 country and a tremendous reach. The audience for that show 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:30.400 is humongst I will argue though, and it's probably my 0:05:30.440 --> 0:05:33.560 head's going to explode. You. I think we have the 0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:36.960 the loyalty that we have in the Mallam militia, but 0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:39.080 I think we can get that because we're not as big. 0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:41.560 We don't have as bigger reach because morn late at night. 0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:44.960 But but Dan obviously has his father and no danyants 0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:47.120 were there. I was bummed out. I was hoping the 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:49.680 Danants would give me a manny and a petty while 0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:53.320 I was doing the Dan Patrick Show, but that did 0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:57.240 not happen. So I also would like to address a 0:05:57.279 --> 0:05:59.280 few of the members of the militia Danny have been 0:05:59.400 --> 0:06:03.239 belly ache that we were unable to do. I didn't 0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:05.880 do some of the usual bits that I do on 0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:07.560 the overnight show, and they were like, well why not. 0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:10.320 I don't understand. What do you do? You think you 0:06:10.360 --> 0:06:13.159 can't do that during the day, And that's not it 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:17.479 at all. So when you fill in on a radio 0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:19.960 So this is all I was taught from people on radio. 0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:24.000 When you're the fill in guy, your house city like 0:06:24.080 --> 0:06:27.160 you wouldn't go to somebody's house and rearrange the furniture 0:06:27.160 --> 0:06:30.120 and bring in your own sofa. Say you just you 0:06:30.600 --> 0:06:33.080 can't do that. You are a guest. You have to 0:06:33.160 --> 0:06:36.640 honor that whatever that show has going. And they have 0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:39.400 a different Dan Patrick got a much different format than 0:06:39.480 --> 0:06:42.200 I have. If if I started doing the stick ala 0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:45.880 I do overnight on the Dan Patrick Show, I mean 0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:48.599 they would drag me off the studio and that would 0:06:48.600 --> 0:06:51.240 be it. It would be all over there. So you 0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:53.800 have to respect the boundaries. There's guard rails and that's 0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:57.240 part of it. And I was an interloper when in Rome. 0:06:57.400 --> 0:07:01.760 Act like a Roman Danny. That's what you have to do, right, 0:07:01.800 --> 0:07:04.320 You just gotta follow the rules. Let me tell you 0:07:04.360 --> 0:07:08.320 one thing about radio, and it is the pits. Is 0:07:08.360 --> 0:07:12.320 when you've been doing morning drive for year after year 0:07:12.360 --> 0:07:16.160 after year, busting your ass, waking up super early every 0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:21.800 single day, show prep, post production, pre production, and really 0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:24.760 you're burning your candle at both ends, and you get tired, 0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:27.280 and you don't want to take a vacation, because we 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:30.840 know what happens to radio guys when they go on vacation. 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:34.080 A lot of them don't get to come back because 0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:37.360 you are tired. When you finally get to leave, Inevitably, 0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:41.120 whoever fills in for you sounds nice and fresh, but 0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:43.080 they only have to do it for a few days, 0:07:43.440 --> 0:07:46.120 so you're right, they should just house it. There was 0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:48.640 a time at k c a Q where I've made 0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:51.800 the mistake of having my afternoon drive DJ fill in 0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:54.240 for me and my morning crew while we took one 0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:57.040 week off. When we got back then it was a 0:07:57.040 --> 0:08:01.320 ship show because this guy had created this whole morning 0:08:01.440 --> 0:08:03.960 zoo thing. That he did for a week with all 0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:08.520 these brand new bells and whistles and games and features, 0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:11.040 and people were blown away. They were like, that was 0:08:11.080 --> 0:08:14.080 one of the best things. Not that we don't like 0:08:14.240 --> 0:08:17.920 you guys, but what wasn't fair is obviously he did 0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:20.600 that for one week and then got to go back 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:23.400 to sleeping at night like a normal human being and 0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:27.560 doing his afternoon show. So yeah, it's really hard because 0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:30.080 we've talked about it on your show a lot about 0:08:30.120 --> 0:08:32.400 how there is no way in hell you can take 0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:35.680 more than five days off as a radio host. No, 0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:38.240 And I've explained that to my wife several times. You know, 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:40.440 we always wanted to go on these exotic vacations and 0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:42.319 she'd love to go to Europe and all that night. 0:08:43.000 --> 0:08:44.679 I never wanted to go to Europe before. But now 0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:48.040 as I've gotten older, what the hell? Why No, I'm 0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:50.199 becoming a softie here as I get older, and I'm like, 0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:52.199 let's do some things. We're gonna check out, you know, 0:08:52.360 --> 0:08:53.960 life before you know it. Anyways, you might as well 0:08:54.040 --> 0:08:57.160 enjoy the journey. But uh, yeah, it's really tough. That's 0:08:57.160 --> 0:08:58.600 a that's a tough part of the business. But that 0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:01.440 is that is so hilarious this story you told about 0:09:01.480 --> 0:09:03.640 the guy that filled in because he was a dick too. 0:09:03.760 --> 0:09:06.800 He told us behind the scenes in the hallway, I'm 0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:08.560 glad you guys are back. There's no way I could 0:09:08.559 --> 0:09:12.160 have kept up that energy for a second week. Yeah. Yeah, 0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:15.760 Well he admitted that he couldn't do it continually like 0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:19.800 we did for five years there. So yeah, it's not fair, 0:09:19.880 --> 0:09:22.320 But what are you gonna do. I guess that's why 0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:26.000 they say some hosts purposely have boring guys on when 0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:30.000 they're gone. Oh yeah, well there's a famous host. I 0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:31.720 don't know if I can say the person. Well, it's 0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:35.600 a podcast. Yeah. Uh, the great Jim Rome, a legend 0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:38.120 in sports radio. Jim for years when he was at 0:09:38.120 --> 0:09:39.880 the very top. Jim is not the very top anymore, 0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:41.400 but he was at the very top of the business. 0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:45.160 He would have the worst people possible filling in for 0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:48.320 him because he never wanted to be upstaged by the 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:51.720 fill in guy, you know, and then because then you 0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:53.720 get that, and you don't you want to avoid that, 0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:56.439 So he'd bring in boring people. And but there there 0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:58.440 are some guys, and I've noticed this over the years 0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:02.040 in radio, they're are there are guys that are sprinters 0:10:02.120 --> 0:10:04.560 and they're not marathon and it's part of the hard 0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:06.920 part of the business to me is just doing it 0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:10.160 every day and showing up. If anybody could do this 0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:12.080 like what we do sports radio, when there's like a 0:10:12.160 --> 0:10:15.360 big story and there's a lot of stuff going on, 0:10:15.400 --> 0:10:17.240 I feel like anyone could come in here and do 0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:20.240 this and be Okay, maybe we won't have the formatics down, 0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:24.320 but where we earn our money is when we're just 0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:26.760 throwing spaghetti against the wall and we've got to make 0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:29.680 it sound like there's a lot going on. Guys that 0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:32.280 have the great tape that I call them the sprinters, 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:36.520 and they get hired because programming people in consultants here 0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:38.360 these guys and they go, Wow, this guy is great. 0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:41.839 He's got the razmataz. You know, man, oh man, this 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:45.040 is this is true. It's like hiring Rick Flair. You know, 0:10:45.160 --> 0:10:47.720 it's great, and then yeah, higher and then after one 0:10:47.800 --> 0:10:50.720 or two shows they got nothing, and you're like, wait 0:10:50.720 --> 0:10:54.760 and shut the funk up. Okay, shut the funk up. Yeah. 0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:57.280 So I but I would again back to the damn Patrick. 0:10:57.400 --> 0:11:00.360 I would like to thank I'm gonna name people and 0:11:00.559 --> 0:11:02.600 to miss some I love that blind Scott called in 0:11:04.360 --> 0:11:08.520 immediately annoyed Rob Parker because anytime Robs's Boston on the screen, 0:11:08.600 --> 0:11:13.040 his eyes light up. Facts from Philly called in Antony 0:11:13.120 --> 0:11:17.280 and a. I'm among others and a number of the 0:11:17.320 --> 0:11:21.160 Mallard Militia holding up the social media platforms Alfa at Piner, 0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:25.800 Justin and Cincinnati just Josh, and I said this on 0:11:25.840 --> 0:11:28.240 the Overnight Show during the week. Some of these guys, 0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:30.760 I don't know if they're real or not. They I 0:11:30.840 --> 0:11:34.719 have some really wacky hours and whenever I'm doing something, Uh, 0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:37.560 these guys, it's like it's like Star Wars. They march in, 0:11:37.800 --> 0:11:42.240 you know, all right, Mallard Militia Hostyle take over. There 0:11:42.280 --> 0:11:45.640 were job I was like, they do some of that also. 0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:49.200 But it's great. I mean, it's wonderful. These guys have 0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:52.160 followed me around all the different nonsense that we've done, 0:11:52.200 --> 0:11:53.480 so it was fun. I don't know that we'll ever 0:11:53.480 --> 0:11:55.520 do they I'll ever do the damn Patrick Show again. 0:11:55.559 --> 0:11:58.679 But I heard that management liked it, but I don't know. 0:11:59.320 --> 0:12:01.240 Maybe they were and they probably told that to everyone, 0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:03.960 so who the heck knows, But we will certainly fight 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:08.320 out soon enough now as far as the power of 0:12:08.520 --> 0:12:11.960 fats and this again goes back to facts in Philadelphia. 0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:13.960 So I had a very odd thing happened this week. 0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:18.719 Out of thin air, Danny. I get contacted by a 0:12:18.800 --> 0:12:23.199 producer of the w i P Morning show in Philadelphia 0:12:24.240 --> 0:12:25.840 and they're like, hey, we want to have you on. 0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:28.720 And I've never been on this show before. I don't 0:12:28.720 --> 0:12:31.199 know any of these people on this show. It's hosted 0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:34.880 by Angelo Cataldi, who's a Philadelphia radio legend. This guy 0:12:36.120 --> 0:12:41.040 Angelo Contaldi. You're not from Philadelphia, but Tony Brunois to 0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:45.160 work with Tony Anthony Gargatto. Gargonald's also a Philadelphia legend, 0:12:45.160 --> 0:12:48.680 but that but this guy, Angela Cataldi has been on forever. 0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:50.600 He's about to retire. He's been in the business for years. 0:12:50.600 --> 0:12:54.520 He's an old sportswriter, gossip guy. He's done some amazing bit. 0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:57.160 So anyway, I get called by are you a contact email? 0:12:57.200 --> 0:12:59.280 By his producer out of thin air and they're like, hey, 0:12:59.280 --> 0:13:01.160 would you like to come on that We're doing a 0:13:01.200 --> 0:13:04.280 segment about Doc Rivers because there you know, they rip 0:13:04.320 --> 0:13:06.960 all the Philadelphia coaches and players pretty much, so they 0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:10.160 were they knew that I, uh, they that I hate 0:13:10.679 --> 0:13:13.320 you despise what Doc did with the clippers blowing the 0:13:13.840 --> 0:13:16.640 both the lobb City era and the beginning of the 0:13:16.760 --> 0:13:19.040 Kalai era, and he was there for both of that, 0:13:19.080 --> 0:13:22.400 and I was very upset by all of the disappearing 0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:27.000 acts they went to full who Dany. Yes, they vanished 0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:29.680 very quickly there. And so anyway, I was like, yeah, sure, 0:13:29.679 --> 0:13:31.719 I love doing it. I very rarely turned down those 0:13:31.720 --> 0:13:34.760 things if I have time. I I love making random 0:13:34.840 --> 0:13:37.160 pop up appearances on different radio shows. It's fun to 0:13:37.160 --> 0:13:38.720 do if I have the time. I like to do 0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:40.679 it because I know I would like people to come 0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:42.920 on my show or my podcast. So if they asked me, 0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:45.640 it's very nice. It's a courtesy. You should do it. 0:13:45.960 --> 0:13:47.720 And so I didn't get paid for anything like that. 0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:50.560 But the reason I went on the Angelo Cataldi show 0:13:50.720 --> 0:13:56.040 was because of Fats in Philadelphia. Fats loves Cataldi apparently, 0:13:56.320 --> 0:13:59.040 and he reached out and so you gotta get Malaron 0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:03.680 and he bugged these people so much that they put 0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:07.080 me on the show with It was Angelo and Billy King, 0:14:07.200 --> 0:14:09.800 the old general manager of the Philadelphia seventies sixers. So 0:14:09.880 --> 0:14:15.240 I am bashing Doc Rivers. What is and a former 0:14:15.360 --> 0:14:17.360 NBA executive is on the show listening to this. He 0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:19.840 actually agreed with a lot of the points that I 0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:23.040 was making, which which made me feel pretty good. But Angelo, 0:14:23.160 --> 0:14:27.200 just give you a brief thumbnail recap of Angelo's career, 0:14:27.200 --> 0:14:29.520 and I'm probably missing most of the stuff. But the 0:14:29.560 --> 0:14:32.160 most famous things that Angelo Cataldi has done in radio 0:14:32.520 --> 0:14:35.040 the wing Bowl. You are you familiar with the wing Bowl? 0:14:35.040 --> 0:14:36.920 I don't think they do it anymore in Philadelphia, but 0:14:36.920 --> 0:14:40.360 it was like the weekend before the Super Bowl, that 0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:43.200 dead week they had a chicken wigging and contest in 0:14:43.200 --> 0:14:46.240 Philadelphia has become a national story and it was a 0:14:46.240 --> 0:14:50.440 big deal in Philadelphia. Also, Angelo led a group of 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:53.600 listeners of his radio station to the NFL Draft. They 0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:57.040 drove up to New York and this was when Ricky 0:14:57.120 --> 0:15:00.880 Williams was in the draft and the Eagles and that 0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:03.840 show wanted Ricky Williams to be drafted by the Eagles. 0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:07.400 They ended up drafting McNabb Donovan McNabb, and they famously 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:11.680 booed me yeah. And it was his listeners that had 0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:14.280 driven up from from Philadelphi. He's done a bunch of 0:15:14.320 --> 0:15:16.160 crazy other things and he's gotten in a bunch of trouble, 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:17.480 So it was it was cool to talk to him, 0:15:17.480 --> 0:15:20.360 and he's had a great run in radio, and here 0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:25.560 I come on as a total uh clown, ranting away 0:15:25.600 --> 0:15:28.920 about him. So what about this this ship sandwich? Here? 0:15:28.920 --> 0:15:31.040 What what is this all about? Danny g Now, this 0:15:31.120 --> 0:15:33.760 is never a good thing when I hear that in 0:15:33.800 --> 0:15:37.640 the headline. So what happened here? A week ago? While 0:15:37.680 --> 0:15:41.160 you were busy chopping it up with fur Ball? Andy Furman, 0:15:41.680 --> 0:15:44.640 I had a rare day off, so I took my 0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:48.280 tender roney to Santa Barbara. She's been great about how 0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:51.600 many days I've been working my crazy radio hours. So 0:15:51.640 --> 0:15:54.160 I thought, let me spoiler. I got a hotel. I 0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:57.400 have a statin night. John On had some bells and 0:15:57.440 --> 0:15:59.920 whistles on it, like they let you take the by 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:02.680 makes out on the waterfront there on the bike path. 0:16:03.200 --> 0:16:05.520 So we were getting some exercise. It was a beautiful 0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:08.520 day there. Uh. We get down at the towards the 0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:10.800 end of the bike path and we pull the bikes 0:16:10.800 --> 0:16:13.680 over lay them down on the grass. She runs across 0:16:13.800 --> 0:16:18.640 the bike trail, goes up the stairs of a lifeguard station. Yeah, 0:16:18.680 --> 0:16:21.120 and I'm resting. I'm like, I wonder what she You know, 0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:23.000 I kind of had an idea of what she was 0:16:23.040 --> 0:16:25.920 doing up there. Ben Our women love to use their 0:16:25.920 --> 0:16:31.520 iPhones to do some makeshift photo sessions. So she's taking 0:16:31.560 --> 0:16:34.720 pictures up there. There was a breeze blowing, her hair 0:16:34.800 --> 0:16:37.800 is blowing in the wind. She's doing glamour shots up 0:16:37.800 --> 0:16:42.840 on this lifeguard station. So she hops down from the 0:16:42.960 --> 0:16:46.360 stairs and sees that I saw what she was doing, 0:16:46.360 --> 0:16:50.320 and she was embarrassed. So she runs across the bike 0:16:50.360 --> 0:16:53.800 path back towards me, and there's some green grass right 0:16:53.800 --> 0:16:56.680 there next to the bike path, but it was super uneven. 0:16:57.200 --> 0:17:00.760 How do I know that because she put her arms 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:04.600 out trying to look cute like running towards me. The 0:17:04.680 --> 0:17:08.080 soundtrack if one had been playing, because this was a 0:17:08.200 --> 0:17:11.480 rom com movie, it would have been Whitney Houston run 0:17:11.560 --> 0:17:25.240 to you and her arms are open. Problem, she lost 0:17:25.280 --> 0:17:30.080 her balance when she hit the uneven grass man. You 0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:34.440 know the famous YouTube clip of bar Tolo Cologne losing 0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:37.920 his balance. Yeah, yeah, and everything, all the everything's kind 0:17:37.920 --> 0:17:40.159 of floating around there. It's like it's like he's an 0:17:40.160 --> 0:17:44.400 outer space. Now, she's not the size of bar Tolo Cologne, obviously, 0:17:44.840 --> 0:17:47.400 but the way she lost her balance and the way 0:17:47.440 --> 0:17:50.800 it looked like she was sliding head first into second base, 0:17:51.520 --> 0:17:57.000 she bounced. She hit the grass so hard that she 0:17:57.240 --> 0:18:06.000 bounced and then slid towards me safe. Now what did 0:18:06.000 --> 0:18:07.600 she do that? Now, because there's a couple of ways 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:12.000 to get up from that, there's a okay, dust it off. 0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:14.399 I'm gonna laugh and it's all funny, the jokes on 0:18:14.480 --> 0:18:17.199 me or oh my god, I need to go to 0:18:17.240 --> 0:18:20.399 the doctor. Well, it was a busy day in Santa Barbara, 0:18:20.440 --> 0:18:22.640 because remember this was the first day of a long 0:18:22.720 --> 0:18:26.399 President's Day weekend. Well, there were a lot of people 0:18:26.480 --> 0:18:28.840 around on this bike path and on the beach there. 0:18:29.359 --> 0:18:33.119 So she hopped up super fast because of all the 0:18:33.160 --> 0:18:36.360 eyes that were on us. Then she had a look 0:18:36.400 --> 0:18:39.480 of pain on her face, thinking, oh now she's hurt. 0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:43.240 She gets up to me. You could tell her hands 0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:47.720 are stinging. She heard her knee. She had stinging hands, 0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:50.400 and she sat next to me and I saw tears 0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:53.040 welling up in her eyes. And this was like me 0:18:53.080 --> 0:18:57.160 working with the kindergarteners. This has happened several times during 0:18:57.200 --> 0:19:00.719 freeze Monster, where I say it's all right, it's okay, 0:19:00.880 --> 0:19:04.320 you're a tough cookie. When she heard those words, she 0:19:04.480 --> 0:19:10.040 stopped crying. It works. Those are magic words. Yeah, whether 0:19:10.119 --> 0:19:13.840 you're five or thirty five, those words are magic. So 0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:15.560 she ducked it up. I gave her a lot of 0:19:15.600 --> 0:19:18.639 props for that, but I told her, I said, that 0:19:18.840 --> 0:19:23.320 was God punishing you for taking that selfie. That is 0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:26.080 that is right. This should have been playing in the 0:19:26.080 --> 0:19:28.719 back of the Benny Hill music right, and she's running 0:19:28.720 --> 0:19:33.320 down there. You could have played played that man oh man. Anyway, 0:19:33.400 --> 0:19:36.160 have a great story. That's tremendous from Twitter that night. 0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:39.159 Then I moosted the pictures she took right before she 0:19:39.400 --> 0:19:43.400 ate ship like the final acted. At any moment now, 0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:46.879 because everyone's got a professional camera. Like when I was 0:19:46.920 --> 0:19:48.960 a kid, I'm we're on the same age, Danny, we 0:19:48.960 --> 0:19:51.680 had like the polaroid cameras. Remember that you have to wait. 0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:55.640 Now we have professional cameras. At any moment, you could 0:19:55.680 --> 0:20:00.000 have a flash mob photo shoot anywhere, any place, anytime. 0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:02.920 And I love Santa Barbara. I try to go there 0:20:03.040 --> 0:20:05.760 once a year. I love one of the vacations. I 0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:08.640 love going on like a little weekend getaways driving up 0:20:09.160 --> 0:20:11.520 the California coast Central can I always usually get to 0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:15.320 northern California because I too far. But central California, the 0:20:15.359 --> 0:20:19.200 Hearst Castle area, righting around their Santa Cruz and then 0:20:19.200 --> 0:20:23.520 on the way back, stopping in Santa Barbara's beautiful because 0:20:23.560 --> 0:20:29.800 you have Solving Pismo Beach, Beach, San Luis Obispo, Morrow Base, 0:20:30.040 --> 0:20:33.719 and Simion Pass the Robos. You're right, it's beautiful up 0:20:33.760 --> 0:20:36.800 the coast. And every time I drive through Central California, 0:20:36.880 --> 0:20:39.399 I am I'm just blown back by the fact that 0:20:39.520 --> 0:20:42.800 all that land around the Hearst Castle is owned by 0:20:42.840 --> 0:20:47.480 the State of California's donated. Otherwise there would be massive cities, 0:20:47.560 --> 0:20:52.080 amazing real estate right on the California coast, picturesque and 0:20:52.080 --> 0:20:55.080 and instead you have like a beach where seals lay 0:20:55.080 --> 0:21:01.879 out in fart. I fell asleep. No, that's yeah, on 0:21:01.920 --> 0:21:05.320 the California coast. But it is just wonderful. And uh, 0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:08.960 and my my wife loves the Madonna And I don't 0:21:08.960 --> 0:21:10.520 know if you've been to have you been to the 0:21:10.920 --> 0:21:14.440 Haunted Haunted?
