Yeah, 35 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 1: start out with Mike from Fullerton. These these messages sent 36 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,399 Speaker 1: either via email Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com, 37 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 1: no numbers, all letters, Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com, 38 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: or the Facebook page which is Ben Mallard's show, our 39 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: show Facebook page. So Mike from Fullerton rights and he says, Hey, Ben, 40 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 1: I have a hard old radio question for you this week. 41 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: Generally our national sports radio guys supposed to be welcoming 42 00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: the fans of every franchise, even if it's the cheating 43 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:05,399 Speaker 1: as rows. The fact that you actually give strong opinions, 44 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: including the negative ones, on My Angels, is a big 45 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 1: reason why I'm a fan of the show. But I'm 46 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: curious if trashing a franchise, no matter how well deserved, 47 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: breaks some kind of national radio handbook or something. All right, 48 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: So so, Mike, there there's really no handbook that I 49 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: know of. Maybe I didn't get the talking points from 50 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: from management, but it's really how I got into to radio, 51 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: and it has changed. I will agree with you, Mike, 52 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: that the business has changed. It's a lot more cheerleaders 53 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: and there's people that are in the tank for the 54 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: hometown team and all that, and that wasn't how it 55 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: was when I got in to radio. And I guess 56 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: I'm becoming one of the last and the Mohicans these days. 57 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: But there are a bunch of people in certain cities 58 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: that do it. It really goes by market, and I 59 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: was lucky enough to work in the Boston market a 60 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: little bit remotely, and that's a town where they trash 61 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: the Red Sox if they play poorly. The patriots of 62 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: the Celtics. Philadelphia is a town like that New York, 63 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: although even that's changed a little bit. But as far 64 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: as the national stuff now, all we get told by 65 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: management unless I miss something here, Danny is do a 66 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:24,280 Speaker 1: good show, do an engaging show, doing entertaining show, keep 67 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: people listening as long as you can possibly keep people listening. 68 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: And however you do that, whatever you do to create 69 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 1: an audience and to captivate an audience is what you 70 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: have to do. And just don't get us in trouble. 71 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: Am I correct? Danny? Isn't that pretty much the mantra 72 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 1: from from management? Well, Hollywood, my man, that radio handbook 73 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: you spoke of is in your company email, in your inbox. Well, man, 74 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:58,559 Speaker 1: let me tell you about man. We're gonna make you famous. Yeah, 75 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 1: there's no there's no hand book. It's just supposed to 76 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: be glued to your radio type programming. In other words, 77 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: if I'm driving home Ben late at night and you're 78 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: on the radio and I pull into my driveway, you're 79 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: so compelling that I don't want to get out of 80 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: my car. Yeah, or whoever the guy is on the radio, 81 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: whether it's me or Danny g or whoever, Like, if 82 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: something happens and your thought is, I wonder what numb 83 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: nuts thinks about this, you know, And I happen to 84 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: be the numb nuts. Like that's a good thing, right 85 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: if you're And unfortunately, we do have a number of 86 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: people that do look forward to it. And and and 87 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 1: in the same people Danny like to bust my balls 88 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: when I when I give something out and give an 89 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 1: opinion out and all that stuff. And but that's fine 90 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: as long as you're as long as you're listening. But 91 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 1: I do think the business has shifted, the pendulum has 92 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: shifted away from being critical. And there's a lot a 93 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: lot more people that are doing this now that are 94 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: not not holding people accountable, and they're they're making excuses, 95 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: and I find that as dull as dishwater. Other people, 96 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: I guess like it. I don't know, to each their own. 97 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: It's an acquired taste. I didn't grow up listening to 98 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: sports radio like that, so I'm not used to it, 99 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 1: and I don't really enjoy it, but there's clearly an 100 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,279 Speaker 1: audience for it. But I like throwing haymakers. Well, the 101 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: great Petros and money say that there's only one thing 102 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: that gets more ratings than sports. And that's fun. So 103 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,559 Speaker 1: when you have shows that have a lot of fun 104 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: games and content and fun callers and things like that, 105 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 1: to me, that's the best radio that's on the radio. Yeah, 106 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: it's like making uh, spaghetti or something. There's different spices 107 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: you can put in there, and different seasoning you can 108 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 1: add and changes the taste and the flavor of the 109 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: the meal. And so that's how that goes. But thank you, Mike. 110 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 1: Next up Hill Billy, Mike writes in and he says, 111 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: you know, Benjamin Danny Gee, I've been hearing about raising 112 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: canes off and on. You've talked about it over the years, 113 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: and your go to for substituting one thing for something else. 114 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: I never paid much attention to it, he'll bully, Mike says, 115 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: because we didn't have them here, but they're building one 116 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: right down the road from him in Chester, Virginia. And 117 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: I wanted your go to, all right, So so he'll 118 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: be with Mike. My go to it raising canes. I 119 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: go Keniak combo, no cole Slaw, no veggies, no cole Slaw, 120 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: extra fries. There's also if you like the bread they 121 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: toasted on one side. But if you ask for it 122 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: toasted on both sides. They'll give you a fresh piece 123 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: of bread, get it toasted on both sides, and then 124 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: I normally get lemonade easy ice, and then when I 125 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: drink the lemonade, I then fill it up with one 126 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: of the uh, the regular beverages that they have there. 127 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: So that's that's my go to. I love raising cane 128 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 1: better than any other chicken joint that's out there, including 129 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: the big one that doesn't open on Sundays there, so 130 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 1: Chick fil A I like raising canes more. But that's 131 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: my my go to. I'm all about it. But like 132 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: everything else, the price has gone up up in a way, 133 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: Danny right. It used to be fast food with cheap food. 134 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: Now not so much. Yeah, And unfortunately where I live now, 135 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: there's no raising canes in my backyard, but if there was, 136 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: I would have to go on a solo mission there. 137 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: I have to deduct points from Mike Cleopatra because I 138 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: took her to raising keynes when we were visiting San 139 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: Diego or Temecula. Rather we were in Temecula. I took 140 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: her to a raising canes ben. She turned her nose up. 141 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: She thought it was overfried. She didn't like it. She's like, well, 142 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: I don't understand what all the hype in the fuss 143 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: was about. And right then I had to really do 144 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: some deep introspection. Yes, that's the exact word I was 145 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: looking for, because at that point I just wasn't sure 146 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: if I was with the right woman. Yeah, that can 147 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: that can end a relationship. You know, people think we're 148 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: kidding here, but no, I mean that's a that's a 149 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 1: deal breaker for a lot of people. You gotta think 150 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: how many meals you eat today, how many times you 151 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: would like to go get that nice fried chicken from 152 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: Raising Kines. They had to buy a commercial on this 153 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: show we're giving away. But it's you're right, and I 154 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 1: mean I have similar issues with my my bride. She 155 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 1: she has like a gluten free diet that she's on 156 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: most of the time, so she doesn't need a lot 157 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: of a lot of bread. I like bread, but I 158 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: only eat once a day. So when I eat, I 159 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: go big. I go big and I go home is 160 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 1: what I do. And so we go back and forth. 161 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:44,079 Speaker 1: But the cool thing is she doesn't really care. I 162 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: can eat, we can eat separate things as long as 163 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: we're kind of in the same area. So it's all 164 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: it's all good there, all right.

He says, uh, the sound bite of 167 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:04,839 Speaker 1: no Barrowe is awesome, and I know it took Jake 168 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: Warner a long time to find that sound bite and 169 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: you loved it. Was there ever sound bites for number 170 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 1: two through number nine by the same artist?

Guy, He says, I 176 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: think you should send out a call to the Mallam 177 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: Militia to make those for you. Well, that's a great idea. 178 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: That's a great idea, Barry, if somebody wants to send 179 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: in now.

Let's see we have Pierre from sixth 232 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: place in the Mallard Militia Fantasy football contest on DraftKings. 233 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: He says, Man, I believe that you sleep less than 234 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: I do. That is, unless you are not, in fact, 235 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 1: actually posting on so social media and are allowing your 236 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: vast social media team to handle such petty duties. I 237 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: guess my question is how many people does Fox Sports 238 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:15,599 Speaker 1: Radio employed to maintain the social media empire of the 239 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: media giants such as yourself. Well, Pierre, we're never supposed 240 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: to talk about how we make the hot dogs, isn't 241 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: that what we say? Danny, You can't talk about how 242 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: you make the hot dogs and ruin the magic of 243 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: how this is all made. But there is an army 244 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: of people behind the scenes. It's a small army. It's 245 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: the size of the Vatican's army. But it's a small, 246 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: small group that defends the social media channels. And if 247 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: you only take turns, if you only knew who was 248 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: in the watch tower. It would amaze you if you 249 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: had that kind of intel. Are you gonna pay the 250 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: eight dollars a month for Twitter or are you gonna 251 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 1: build that to the company? Oh I am not. I 252 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 1: am not paying. If the company wants me to be verified, 253 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: they have I hear they have the money to afford that. Um, 254 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: but are you gonna pay eight dollars a month to 255 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: get verified? Any Are you gonna go down that road? 256 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 1: It doesn't affect me, so I don't care. Now it's 257 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a badge of honor now to not 258 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: have the blue check mark. Yeah, I see. Like the 259 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 1: whole point of it was it was special because you 260 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: had to earn it. You didn't pay for it something, 261 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: they had to give it to you. But now it's 262 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 1: if you just buy it, it's not really that special 263 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: because anyone can get it. You know, a couple of 264 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: years ago, when I looked into getting my my page verified, 265 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: they got back to me and they said, cool, you're 266 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 1: in line to get the check mark. All you need 267 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: to do is have a website now so we can 268 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: verify you. I did the website and then I heard 269 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: back saying we're pausing all verifications at the moment, so 270 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: it was just for me. It was a black hole 271 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: and not at the Oakland Coliseum. Well that sucks. I 272 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: had to jump through a bunch of hoops. I've told 273 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: the story before. I just send my driver's license in 274 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: and they had to get all my personal information. They own. 275 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 1: Twitter has all my information. You see all the athletes 276 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: and celebrities that have been tweeting saying if you don't 277 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: know who I am, if I haven't earned this, screw you. 278 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna pay. Yeah, well, we'll see how this 279 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: plays out. And people are upset because you know, when 280 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: something's free and then you charge for it, Why would 281 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: you pay for something you were getting for free? You 282 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like it's like the old line 283 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: about the why buy the cow if you're getting the 284 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: milk for free? You know, the the dating line we 285 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: heard back in the day with me you get me 286 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 1: that good stuff got mail. Next up is Adrian in 287 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: the Mile High City. He says, Ben and Danny g 288 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: are buddy, Adrian. I've been singing the Dodger blues the 289 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. The Dodgers always have great regular 290 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: seasons and then suck at a time they cannot suck 291 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: during the playoffs. I don't know why I thought this 292 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: season would be different. The Big Blue Choking Crew cost 293 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: me my Dodger World Series Championship wager. Sorry about that, Adrian, 294 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 1: He says, go Phillies, and then he points out he's 295 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: who's writing this and who knows. Now it's Sunday. Maybe 296 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: the World Series is over by now, but things were 297 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: looking good for the Phillies at the time he sent 298 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 1: this in. He says, speaking of the cheaters, Big Ben 299 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 1: had me. You had me laughing my ass off and 300 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: the meter reader car when you were saying that you 301 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,679 Speaker 1: would no longer be a Dodger fan if they signed 302 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: Carlos Correa this offseason. F albub. Now, I was not kidding, Adrian. 303 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 1: A lot of people thought I was exaggerating. No, no 304 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: I am. I am so far on the side of 305 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: the aisle, which is anti assholes that if the Dodgers 306 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 1: signed an asshole Carlos Correa, I'm out. I'm out. I'll 307 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: still watch baseball, I'll bet on baseball like Pete Rose, 308 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 1: but I am not going to invest myself in a 309 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 1: franchise that law lost a World Series to a team cheating, 310 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: and he was one of the key cheaters, and then 311 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:08,160 Speaker 1: you sign that guy down the line. I don't want 312 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: to be a party of that. And if they signed 313 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 1: Korey and I don't believe they will, But if the 314 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: Dodgers do, I'm out. I'm out. As long as he's 315 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 1: wearing Dodger blue, I'm not. And so that's the way 316 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 1: it is. That's how strongly I feel. And that is 317 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: a That is a deal breaker for me. That is 318 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: a deal breaker. And I don't think they'll do it. 319 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 1: I think they'll sign Dan's by Swanson or bring back 320 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 1: Trade Turner, or signs Andrew Bogart's, any of those guys, 321 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: not Carlos Carey, Dan's by route, that's better. And you 322 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 1: know what, man, it would be like if Machado returned 323 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 1: to the Dodgers. He has such a punchable face, so 324 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 1: does Correa. I can't imagine those guys wearing Dodger blue 325 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: right now. You'd want to punch your TV screen. Yeah, 326 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: Krea is just a dick. I don't want the guy 327 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 1: on the team, and they shouldn't want him either. He's 328 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: bad news.

Well, 333 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 1: of course I have to make pitch stops here and 334 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 1: there to use the restroom, which means I stop at 335 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 1: a lot of porta potties or outhouses. Oh boy along 336 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: the way. Why is it that some of the most 337 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: foul things someone can think to say are written in 338 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: black sharpie on the walls of the outhouse or the 339 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,959 Speaker 1: porta pisser? Also, whose idea was it to start that? 340 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: Most of the time those things are disgusting, and I'm 341 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,640 Speaker 1: trying to piss and get the hell out of there 342 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: as quickly as possible, not stick around in there and 343 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: scribble out a nasty racist message your thoughts get Yeah, 344 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: it's it's always been that way every in the old 345 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:01,160 Speaker 1: bathroom writing. So I guess the because the theory would 346 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: be that assholes are attracted to ship, and so there's 347 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: shipped in there, and so the assholes that they get 348 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: excited by that, the schmucks and the mama Lukes, so like, hey, 349 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: I can they can write nasty stuff and nobody will 350 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: know it's me, and I'll get away with it because 351 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: there's no cameras in here. And why are there so 352 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 1: many accidents inside there? Though?

Oh yeah, I loved sitcoms back in the day, 411 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: and when I was a kid, there wasn't the Internet, 412 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 1: so we watched a lot of TV at the house. 413 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 1: I mean I watched everything from uh the what was 414 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:58,239 Speaker 1: the the Well?

When that would come on, that 424 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: would be a signal to turn the TV channel or 425 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 1: turn it off. Remember my older brother getting up when 426 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 1: the old Master reruns would come on, and he always grumbled, 427 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 1: this show sucks. We were too young. We didn't understand 428 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 1: anything going on in that show. So yeah, I we 429 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 1: had it on.

That was like, this is the 459 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: greatest thing ever. Yeah, and he actually had good music acts. Yeah, 460 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 1: him and well Paul Schaeffer and they brought they brought 461 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 1: random people, but he I loved the Biff Biff Henderson 462 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: actually met him. It was the funniest thing. When I 463 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:54,399 Speaker 1: covered the NBA Finals in two thousand, Biff Henderson was 464 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 1: at the finals there and it was not an act. 465 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: He really did not want to be there. It was 466 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: so funny because you think of that as kind of 467 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: a stick and all that he did not want to 468 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 1: be there. We saw him at the hotel in Indianapolis 469 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: and he was really bummed out that he was. It 470 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: was hilarious. I thought that was an act. But there 471 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: were no cameras. He was just like literally depressed. Maybe 472 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 1: that's just how we always looked. I don't know, I 473 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 1: have no idea, but it was.

So is this pretty? Uh, 496 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 1: it's pretty neat. It's one place that's on my list 497 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: too to travel to someday. Yeah. I actually wrote back 498 00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: to Neil and I said, my my wife's the same way. 499 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 1: She wants to go to take me to Ireland and 500 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 1: in that part of the world. And so I wrote 501 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: back and said, Hey, you gotta let me know the 502 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 1: good places to go and and all that. He says. 503 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: For the question, Neil rights and he says, it's clear 504 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: you are traumatized by calls email from the Fox Sports 505 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,719 Speaker 1: radio bosses. That is true. But have you ever avoided 506 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: a call from the boss and only found out that 507 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: he wanted to give you a huge compliments about your 508 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 1: monologue that day or any others? It's that like your 509 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: talent or shows. If so. No, I've worked at this 510 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: company for twenty years. I don't think I've ever gotten 511 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: a you're really good call? Uh? And no, no disrespect 512 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: to management or anything like that.

I've never gotten that. 516 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I've gotten calls where there was a compliment 517 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: to start the call, but that's not why the call 518 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 1: was going on. Well, it's the compliments, sand which all 519 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: bosses do. You are with a compliment, you then get 520 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 1: to the point you actually want to make, which is 521 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: the person's socks and they're terrible at their job, and 522 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 1: then you finish with a compliment. Yeah, your show yesterday. 523 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: I was laughing my ass off. And by the way, 524 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: I need you to work on extra seven hours this Saturday. Yes, 525 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: exactly exactly. It's And when I get a call from 526 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: management and it starts with a compliment, I am then 527 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 1: waiting for the other shooter drop. I'm like, Okay, they 528 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 1: don't really believe that. What are they really getting at? 529 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 1: What what is the gist of this phone call here? 530 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: And so I'm waiting for it. I'm waiting for it. 531 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: I'm waiting for it. And the suspense of what they're 532 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: gonna say, Ben sucks.

No, no, 553 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 1: he said, just one. He said your favorite dish. That's it. 554 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: Whatever your favorite. He needs to come correct with those. 555 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: Would you rather that's an easy answer. Yeah, that's a 556 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,080 Speaker 1: no brainer. Come on, you gotta do better, Nick, I 557 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,959 Speaker 1: know you've got more talent in there. Calm down on 558 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 1: that Sunday morning. All liquid diet or you know, lose 559 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 1: sex forever. I had a buddy of mine, a radio friend, 560 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 1: who did a liquid diet years ago, and he lost 561 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: a lot of weight and then he started eating food 562 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: again and gained it all back. So what's the point? 563 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 1: You know, what's the point? You know, it's because it 564 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: to to maintain you have to continue on the liquid diet. 565 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 1: I that's what I've heard my friend. That was his experience. 566 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 1: Daniel Daniel in Ohio. Last one, he says sports are 567 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: never going to go away because I guess the sporting question. 568 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: They're never gonna go away because sports are just games, 569 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 1: competition and distractions. Well, really, a lot of things in 570 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 1: life are just distractions. Right. There's a lot of important 571 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 1: stuff and then everything else is a distraction. But he says, 572 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 1: but what do you think would need to happen to 573 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: bring our interest or the salaries of players, coaches, et 574 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: cetera back down to reality. That is from Daniel in Ohio. Well, 575 00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: I would have said a global pandemic would have on that, 576 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: but we just had one and it didn't do ship 577 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: to the amount of money that people in sports are making. 578 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 1: So the thing that will kill the golden goose is 579 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: if television no longer pays the bills. Television is the 580 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: sugar daddy. I know it's moving to the Internet. And 581 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 1: if we get to the point where TV no longer 582 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: can draw the numbers to it's all. It all trickles 583 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 1: down from television. These sports leagues are just TV networks there. 584 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 1: They just provide programming to TV networks. So if the 585 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: audience isn't there and they can't monetize it and then 586 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 1: give the money to the sports leagues, they don't make 587 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: enough to maintain the books, right Danny, with it just 588 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 1: ticket sales is not enough to pay forty five billion 589 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 1: dollars to your quarterback or your left field or you're 590 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: starting pitchers. So that's the thing. Outside of that, it's 591 00:33:56,200 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 1: essentially bulletproof. But television that's the thing or whatever television 592 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: becomes TV meals yeah, for sure, for sure, all right, 593 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: we'll get out on that. Anything to promote here, Danny, 594 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,439 Speaker 1: anything at all. It is Sunday. I will be back. 595 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 1: I can tell you.
