I don't 69 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: know who's gonna win and who's not gonna win. And 70 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: there's still time to vote.

So it's that's power. That is 78 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: like you imagine you vote for the president of the 79 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: United States, and it really depends like in Calornia, Danny, 80 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: if you vote for a Republican in California, you might 81 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: as well wipe your ass with the ballot right, no 82 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: chance of winning. But in this election, who doesn't matter 83 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: what side you're on politically, you have a chance of 84 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: influencing who wins. So the Bennies are to night check 85 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 1: that out. But we've got mail and Ohio Al, can 86 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: you get me in the mood? Ohio Al, It's all right, 87 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 1: very good. First up is Alf from the Antiques road Show. 88 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: He says, Ben, you've pointed out my new found affinity 89 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 1: for AI artistry. So I'll explain myself. First and foremost, 90 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: we're all living in the matrix, and no one knows 91 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: what's real and what's fake. Since I am in fact 92 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: a bot, what more, what's more appropriate as an art 93 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: form for me to dive into? Then AI, well duly noted, 94 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: we are all living in the matrix. You don't know 95 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 1: what's real what's not. That is correct, and AI even 96 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 1: fun to play around with. And I did like the 97 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: fact that. And you didn't see this, Danny, but Alf 98 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: put me at the Vatican with my wife. We were 99 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: meeting with the Pope and so I had a nice 100 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: meeting with the Pope. He's a White Sox fan and 101 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 1: there's a photo to prove that. Secondly, he says, I've 102 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: been a long time admirer of Mallard prop Guy's creations, 103 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: and he pushes me to want to be a better 104 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: contributor to the show. That's good. Look get that legend, 105 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: legend helping legend, Iron sharpens iron. As far as my 106 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: question to you and Danny, g is there any truth 107 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: to the rumor that Danny and Brenda bought you a 108 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,799 Speaker 1: giant metal cock for Christmas because you were so attracted 109 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 1: to it. And then let me send this to you, 110 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: Danny here because this is this is the latest from 111 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: this is from alf and he says that you got 112 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: me that as a as a gift. Right there, you 113 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: can see essentially the link I was attracted to the 114 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: giant metal cock. 115 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 3: Ah, man, AI is just take over our universe. 116 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: That is a giant cock, Danny, I gotta tell you 117 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: that's am. 118 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, not quite, by the way, Ben. It was so 119 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 3: great because when Jake Paul recently sat down with President 120 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 3: Trump speaking of elections, Yeah, Jake Paul said that he 121 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 3: was considering someday a transition into politics. They had a 122 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 3: quick conversation about that, and he said, you know, because 123 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 3: I want to impact some change. In fact, like for 124 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 3: my generation, people ask questions. Young people always ask questions 125 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 3: about what industries they should get into, you know, for 126 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 3: a job for you know, especially with AI taking over. 127 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 3: And I swear to god, Ben Trump did not really 128 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 3: understand what AI was because he told him. He's like, yes, 129 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 3: AI is great to get into if you love computing, 130 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 3: oh boy, And I'm like, no, Donald, he wasn't saying 131 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 3: should I get into AI? He was saying, AI is 132 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:09,239 Speaker 3: taking jobs? 133 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, well you know, what are you gonna do? 134 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 3: But by the time, yeah, but it reminded me of 135 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 3: my grandpa, though he didn't understand one damn thing about 136 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 3: computers China. 137 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: Well. The other thing too, is people take the president 138 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: literally like he. I believe he endorsed Jake Paul for 139 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: political office, right, didn't. I saw that headline. 140 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 3: He told him like, yeah, if you want to help 141 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 3: young people in your generation, it would be cool for 142 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 3: you to get into. 143 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: Well there was a headline saying, hey, you know you 144 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: should get into it.

You know, 147 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: the guys that would just get on there and do 148 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: radio interviews and you're the greatest host of all time. 149 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,119 Speaker 1: This is the greatest radio just like total bull crap. 150 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: You know, it's like a total bull crap artist. 151 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 3: So anyway, I didn't mean like some of your callers 152 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 3: who kiss your rump. 153 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: No, they never kiss me.

If you go back, the 174 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,839 Speaker 1: flight Gate was great. That was a lot of fun. 175 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: But for a single night, I don't know how you 176 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: can beat the malice at the Palace. I don't know 177 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 1: how one could beat the malice at the Palace. The 178 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: night that rn our Test and the Indiana Pacers got 179 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: into it with the Detroit fans, that was an amazing 180 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 1: just a random Friday night into Saturday. It was an 181 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: ESPN game. I was on doing weekend overnights at the time. 182 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: That was great. So some of them the Tiger Woods. 183 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: When that thing broke, it was like Thanksgiving weekend, I believe, 184 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,319 Speaker 1: right around Thanksgiving when that story came out and his 185 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: wife and that whole thing a lot. It's the ingredients 186 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: are there. You're ready. The ingredients are there, Danny. You 187 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: get scandal, you get surprised. That's always great, like unexpected. 188 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 3: My favorite is when the Lakers acquired Lebron James and 189 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 3: you said famously that the Clippers would win a title 190 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 3: before the Lakers even sniffed the playoffs with Lebron. 191 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: Well, the Lakers never won a championship with Lebron the Clippers, but. 192 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 3: Your Clippers sure did. And yes, the Lakers did win 193 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 3: a trophy with Lebron, not a real one. 194 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: They got a fake que. Ok here we go. 195 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 3: If the Clippers had one it that year, you'd still 196 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 3: be wearing that T shirt right now. 197 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 1: GIFs and butts were candy and nuts. But you're like, well, 198 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 1: the Lakers went to a gift shop in Orlando and 199 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: got a little Mickey mount Oh, here we. 200 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 3: Go, we got a little clip play a little tiny 201 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 3: violin for you and Clippers Nation? 202 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: What is still wrong with the Clippers? Just a fact? Path, 203 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 1: just a fact. 204 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 3: Are more like Clippers pod? 205 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm thinking about doing a monologue tonight, by the way, 206 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: because everyone universally was dog piling on the Clippers. I 207 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: can't believe you got rid of Chris Paul. He's so good. 208 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: Oh my god, Paul, do you realize the Clippers are 209 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: a couple games over? I think there are a couple 210 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: of games over five hundred. Now they were when they. 211 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 3: Got there, what were they six and twenty one? 212 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: No, I think they got it rid him a little 213 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 1: bit before. I think they were five and sixteen or 214 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: something like that with him. So but they gotcha Okay, yeah, yeah, 215 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: but they did get off to the five. I think 216 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: you're right. They lost like five more games after that. Yeah. 217 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 3: I think their record at one point was six and 218 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 3: twenty one. 219 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: Something like that. But with Chris Paul playing, they were 220 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: like five and sixteen or something like that. And since 221 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: he left there like fourteen games or something like that, 222 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 1: over five hundred, so maybe he was part of the 223 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: problem for whatever reason. I don't know what happened. 224 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 3: They they, Oh, but you sure loved him back in 225 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 3: the Love City days. And when the listener was just 226 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 3: asking that question about your most famous monologues, it got 227 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 3: me thinking to the low days when you were in 228 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 3: love with Blake Griffin and CP three. 229 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 1: They were fun to watch. They were good ballplayers with 230 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 1: the Clippers. They served their time and they moved on 231 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: somewhere else. That's fine, that happens. I enjoyed watching Lop 232 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: City Clippers were great. They should have won a championship. 233 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: They didn't. 234 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 3: They like you said about Uncle's nuts. 235 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 1: All right, all right, calm down, let's see who's next 236 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: on this one. Kwang from Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam, says 237 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: Big Ben and Danny G Daddy G Radio.

Well, thank you. I 240 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: believe Amy quit overnight radio at this point. On what 241 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 1: she's doing. He says on those nights when there are 242 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 1: no Coop Scoop on entertainment or Queen of Hearts with Lorena, 243 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: may you please bring back the spelling Bee. It would 244 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 1: be hilarious to listen to callers trying to spell basic 245 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: athletic names. That's from quain Quinn.

Those 250 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: are not difficult words to spell, and they have issues. 251 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 1: So can you imagine if I like the names, you know, 252 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 1: the heart, I guess the hardest over the hardest name 253 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: to spell be right now in sports would be Janni 254 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: Si dent to Kombo?

Let's see let's hear it, Ben, Yeah, 391 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: that was tremendous by Tom Brady. Really journalism there by 392 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: Tom on the untimely passing of Tim McCarver three years 393 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,359 Speaker 1: after he passed away. So I have a couple of 394 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,679 Speaker 1: McCarver stories. We early days of Fox Sports Radio, macarver 395 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: was the baseball the lead baseball anas, and we had 396 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 1: him on every once in a while. And mccarver's one 397 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 1: of the all time greatest radio guests, right up there 398 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,439 Speaker 1: with Kevin Kennedy, Danny. Where you would ask macarver one question, 399 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: he would then ask himself three or four follow up 400 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: questions while answering your question, So you'd ask him one. 401 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: It's like set it and forget it. It's like the 402 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: rom Pole Peel thing as a talk show host, when 403 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: you ask somebody a question and then they answer the question, 404 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 1: then they ask three follow up questions. It's amazing. It's amazing. 405 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 1: The other macarver story, this is very embarrassing, and I 406 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 1: learned the important life lesson. At this time, I was 407 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 1: doing stuff with the Dodgers. We were in New York 408 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,239 Speaker 1: at the Old Shay Stadium. It was pregame, it was 409 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,920 Speaker 1: in August. The Dodgers used to always go to play 410 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: the Mets in August in New York. And it was 411 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: right around when the big Tennis tournament was going on, 412 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 1: which happens to be right next to where the Mets play, 413 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 1: and so anyway, it was really hot, nasty, and so 414 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: all of us were bunkerd down in the dining room 415 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: at Shay Stadium the media dining room, and they had 416 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:32,919 Speaker 1: the pregame thing popped up. This is back on wwor 417 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 1: back in the day. So the Mets opened, the broadcast 418 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: popped up. I'm in the media dining room with a 419 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 1: couple of other people and on the open they had 420 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 1: the play by play guy and there was Tom Sever right. 421 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 1: Tom sever was there. He was in the book The 422 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 1: Well Legend on the Mound. As a broadcaster, not so much. 423 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:01,959 Speaker 1: And I didn't carverde the Mets games on television before that. 424 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: I didn't realize he had been replaced. So I said 425 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 1: Danny something to the effect, where the hell's McCarver. This 426 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 1: Seaver's terrible. Well, unfortunately Tom Seaver had actually that was 427 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:20,159 Speaker 1: recorded and he was a few feet away from Uh. Yeah, 428 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 1: it was very awkward. It was that was not That 429 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 1: was not one of my better moments. Uh. I was 430 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 1: trying to praise McCarver, and by praising mcarver, I ended 431 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 1: up bearing myself as it as. I think the Sever's 432 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: gone too, I think all those guys are gone. 433 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 3: Unfortunately, I bet at his memorial, did you get up 434 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 3: and say some words and tell that story? 435 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, By the way, I'd like to apologize and 436 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 1: know Tom's not with us anymore. But Carl Carl from 437 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 1: New Jersey rights in or from He says, Jersey not new. 438 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: He is not really new anymore. That's bad branding. When 439 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: they new York and New Jersey at the time it 440 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 1: was new, they should have planned all right, in twenty 441 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: five thirty years were going to change it to just 442 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:11,719 Speaker 1: Jersey or York And anyway, Carl says, Ben, you've been 443 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: at Fox Sports Radio for you say twenty five years, 444 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: actually over twenty five years now, which era was your favorite? 445 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: And then he sent me this is great Danny. Carl 446 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: sends me two stories. One headline. Joe Beningo says, WF 447 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: the fan, WFN will never be what it once was 448 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 1: and it's heyday and Angela and Angela. 449 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 3: Saw yeah, I saw this because of podcasts and tube streaming. 450 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. Then he sent me a story from Angelo Cataldi, 451 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 1: who was a big star in Philadelphia radio and they 452 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 1: both he and Howard Eskin ripped WIP in Philadelphia for 453 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: not having the edge that it once did. And so 454 00:23:54,960 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: Carl wants to know which era is my favorite? Yeah, 455 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: I mean it's obviously the business is a lot different 456 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 1: Now everything's being cannibalized for YouTube clips and social media clips, 457 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 1: and it does disappoint me because I have a lot 458 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of people just do bits 459 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 1: to get on social media and stuff like that, and 460 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,880 Speaker 1: I'm like, ultimately, there's always should be more people listening 461 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 1: to the full the full show. But I understand times 462 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 1: changed and all that, and the edge is definitely not there. 463 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 1: I I've always kind of liked it. I got into 464 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 1: the business, Carl, I like the edge. If you don't 465 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,640 Speaker 1: get the job done, you get criticized, and that's part 466 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 1: of it. And you know, a lot of the the 467 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,199 Speaker 1: other like the newer guys, I don't think they're into it. 468 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: They're not wired that way. They like kind of do like, 469 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 1: you know, they do their own thing, but it's not 470 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 1: it's not the same. So I from that perspective, I 471 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: think the edge is gone. It was always that was 472 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 1: always the gold standard places like Boston, Philadelphia and New York. 473 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 1: The way they approach sports radio. It's still like that 474 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:01,160 Speaker 1: in Boston. I don't think it's like that. IOUSLY haven't listened, 475 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: so I can't speak as a listener to WFN or 476 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: WIP in Philadelphia. I just know that those guys are complaining, 477 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:10,919 Speaker 1: but some of that's also just old guys complaining, like 478 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,159 Speaker 1: that just what we do we complain about it was 479 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: always better twenty years ago, right, So there's there's that, 480 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 1: But I do think the edge is gone. I think 481 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 1: it's more like pe're just softer on athletes. I mean, 482 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:28,439 Speaker 1: I know from my perspective, like my criticism, which I 483 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 1: think I'm pretty light compared to the old guys that 484 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: were before me. And yet you would think, like the 485 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: things I say, the reaction, I get that I am 486 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 1: like the biggest asshole in the world. I'm like the 487 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:42,879 Speaker 1: word I mean, I'm just over the top, and I'm 488 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm pretty fair and these guys get 489 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: so get the feedback. I get it wild. So anyway, 490 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 1: the point is, Carl and Danie, I know you think 491 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: about this, but I think it's just that's times change, 492 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: and you know, people, there's different generations that do this. 493 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 1: Everyone's got their own act, and so that's kind of 494 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,199 Speaker 1: the way. The way that is, I personally just is 495 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:09,199 Speaker 1: a preference. My preference. I like the more critical sports 496 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:14,120 Speaker 1: talk radio.

At all one day. 667 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 3: That would have to be the worst color to turn 668 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,840 Speaker 3: because everybody thinks you're, you know, having problems breathing. 669 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,439 Speaker 1: It's not ideal. It's like the real Blue Man group. 670 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: This guy was legitimately blue blue skin. Let me see, man, 671 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 1: let's see.

I can't believe it's been 678 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 1: that long. He didn't live that long. He lived at 679 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: age sixty two. His death was caused by a heart attack. 680 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah blah. And he had been using 681 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 1: colloidal silver for years to treat various ailments and that 682 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,800 Speaker 1: is what led to his skin turning blue. 683 00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 3: And wow, this is like how Doc Mike has turned yellow. 684 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 1: Oh, it's a pineapple smoothie with a special sauce he 685 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: causes on top. Yikes. Oh, I can't believe it's been 686 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:09,800 Speaker 1: that long since I got Oh wow, it seems like 687 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,280 Speaker 1: it was just like a couple of years ago. That's nuts, dude, 688 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 1: that is next level. JT.

I find 701 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 1: myself going to almonds or peanuts quite frequently. He says, 702 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,800 Speaker 1: what are your favorite healthy snacks? Knowing that bends a 703 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 1: faster I'm not sure if you snack at all. One 704 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 1: positive of a keto is if I use my air 705 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 1: fryer and do not bread the wings. I can eat 706 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 1: wings all the time, and they are a great snack. 707 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 1: Back at the Wingman Mountain Compound, there you go, it says, 708 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:28,959 Speaker 1: thanks for the nomination for the bends, but you earned 709 00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: a JT. It feels good to be recognized as ap 710 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 1: one we love the JT. The man, I'm not a 711 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 1: big snacker. My whole thing is I have a window 712 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 1: usually each day about an hour a little less than that. 713 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 1: I try to eat all my food for the day 714 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 1: in one hour, so it's like a race against time. 715 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 1: So I try to do that. That's my thing. On 716 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 1: the weekends, I do occasionally have a bigger window to 717 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: eat in, so I might have some chocolate, almonds or peanuts, 718 00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 1: things like that. What about you, Danny, big snack guy. 719 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 3: We talked about this maybe three weekends ago, and I 720 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 3: brought up pistachios, which are great in the shell, though 721 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:08,880 Speaker 3: I don't like when they do all the work for you. 722 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 3: It takes the fun out of popping them out of 723 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 3: the shell. But the one thing I didn't mention, And 724 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 3: after the show I was thinking, Man, you know what, 725 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 3: maybe I didn't mention that because they're so expensive every time. 726 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 3: That's the thing with snacking, right, Ben. You go in 727 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,880 Speaker 3: for your favorite snack, and if you say you like 728 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,720 Speaker 3: beef jerky, what is it fifteen dollars a bag? 729 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 1: Now, Oh well it's ridiculous, so ridiculous. 730 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:33,440 Speaker 3: And the one thing I like, but they're always like 731 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 3: seven ninety nine unless they're on sale. Those dots home 732 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 3: style pretzels. 733 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 1: Yeah those are good. Yeah, I like those. 734 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 3: Oh dude, the honey mustard so good. 735 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: I'd also like the peanut butter filled pretzel, which aren't dots, 736 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,240 Speaker 1: just like the regular or whatever brand. 737 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:54,240 Speaker 3: But there's some good almond butter filled ones at Trader 738 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 3: Joe's and some good peanut butter filled ones at Costco. 739 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:02,239 Speaker 1: Well that's cool. Yeah. I liked m macadamia nuts, but 740 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 1: those are not great for you, and they're very expensive. 741 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 1: The upcharge on Macadamian nuts is yeah. 742 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 3: See, that's what I'm saying. Like, I think I would 743 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:13,720 Speaker 3: snack more if I didn't have to watch my grocery budget, 744 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:19,480 Speaker 3: which is astronomical right now in twenty twenty six, Denny. 745 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 1: If this this price of oil thing keeps going the 746 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: way it's going, we're all gonna be fasting. 747 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:26,759 Speaker 3: We're all gonna be skipping. You're not kidding, You are 748 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 3: not kidding. I spent sixty dollars to fill up my 749 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 3: tank halfway the other day. 750 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's insane. The same thing. I've been getting gas. 751 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 1: I've been trying to tell the wife. I'm like, listen, 752 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 1: you got it. You can't go all the way to empty, 753 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,439 Speaker 1: because every day that you wait to get gas, it's 754 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 1: going up. Like you know what I'm saying. You have 755 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,000 Speaker 1: to consistently try to keep a good amount of gas 756 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 1: to avoid the full even though you're I know the math, 757 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 1: they're still paying for it. But to me, at least 758 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:56,799 Speaker 1: in my head, Danny, if you have it at least 759 00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:59,160 Speaker 1: at half a tank, you're not filling all the way up. 760 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 1: But it is. You know, you know where I live, Danny, 761 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 1: I'm way out. Oh yeah, I mean I got a Yeah, 762 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:10,800 Speaker 1: it's to me. I mentioned in the podcast two and 763 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: a half it was like three three hours or whatever. 764 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 1: Basically I could have phoonn to Seattle. I love my 765 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 1: suit case. That's why I just went back and did 766 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 1: the show from the remote studio.

Do you check 771 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,880 Speaker 1: your phone more or less than teenagers? And then he 772 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 1: sent me the story which I saw earlier this week, Danny, 773 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:41,360 Speaker 1: the story that claimed that teenagers check their phones sixty 774 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 1: four times a day on average during school. Our sixty 775 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 1: they did a study sixty four times a day. They're 776 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,759 Speaker 1: checking their phone. I have no idea how much I'm 777 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:54,840 Speaker 1: checking my phone, Reggie, it's a lot. However, we have 778 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:58,400 Speaker 1: the ultimate trump card, Danny. It's for our job. 779 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 3: We I was gonna say, I am checking my phone 780 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:06,880 Speaker 3: that much, but it's eighty percent because of work, not 781 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 3: because of personal life exactly. 782 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:14,319 Speaker 1: I'm not on the social very rarely do I pop 783 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:19,400 Speaker 1: up on there, So yeah, it's that's crazy, man, sixty. 784 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 1: I would have done the same thing if I had 785 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 1: access to a phone in elementary school or junior high school. 786 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,799 Speaker 1: You kidding me? Come on, man, you please, we'd all 787 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:32,279 Speaker 1: be doing that. Ryan from Shrewsbury, Mass Rights and he says, hey, boys, 788 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: since we are heading into the week of March madness, 789 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: who you guys picks for winning the NCAA tournament? And 790 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 1: do you think we will ever see a perfect bracket 791 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 1: in our lifetime? There you'll keep up the great work. 792 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah blah. That's from Ryan in Shrewsbury. 793 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:52,280 Speaker 1: So Ryan, we mentioned here earlier. This is the point 794 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 1: where we all become experts. And we're gonna be able 795 00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 1: to dazzle you with our Selectionsunday picks and what's going 796 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,080 Speaker 1: to happen. And I have not I've not spent too 797 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 1: much time. I've been watching more college basketball. But normally 798 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 1: what I'll do is I'll just be like, oh, let's 799 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,600 Speaker 1: see here. The players that I want to watch are 800 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:15,400 Speaker 1: all guys that are going to be drafted in the lottery. 801 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 1: So like Cameron Boozer at Duke right Peterson from Kansas, like, 802 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 1: those are the so I'll lean into those teams. And 803 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:27,440 Speaker 1: that almost never works to any so because I remember 804 00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:30,239 Speaker 1: when Kevin Durant was at Texas that one year, I 805 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 1: was like, all right, well, let's go with the Longhorns, 806 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: and I think they lost in the first round of 807 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,799 Speaker 1: the tournament, if I remember they got they didn't make 808 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:39,000 Speaker 1: it out of the first weekend. 809 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 3: And this is all guessing except for, like you said, 810 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 3: the teams that are ranked one through ten, and ultimately 811 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 3: everybody puts most of those for their final four. But 812 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:55,240 Speaker 3: otherwise it is you know the old cliche that lady 813 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,239 Speaker 3: at the office that knows nothing about college basketball and 814 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:01,319 Speaker 3: she always wins the pool. And that's exactly why I'm 815 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:03,320 Speaker 3: going to have Brenda make all the picks for. 816 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:07,799 Speaker 1: Me this year. Yeah, I should be fine. I like 817 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,319 Speaker 1: some of the names. I'm a big point guard guy. 818 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 1: That's old, old school though. Dan, It's always like you 819 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:14,800 Speaker 1: got to get the team with a good point guard 820 00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 1: like this guy, Kingston Flemings, I believe, the guard from Houston. 821 00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:22,840 Speaker 1: That's a great basketball name. Not a great name, Kingston Flemings, 822 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,360 Speaker 1: that's a solid name. Or it could be a restaurant, 823 00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: you know, let's come to Kingston Flemings and have a 824 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 1: nice stake. Hey, we'll see what we have tonight on that. 825 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:35,759 Speaker 1: Hopefully some of these guys.
