<v Speaker 1>Kaboom. If you thought four hours a day, minutes a

0:00:05.480 --> 0:00:09.160
<v Speaker 1>week was enough, I think again. He's the last remnants

0:00:09.160 --> 0:00:12.440
<v Speaker 1>of the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He

0:00:12.560 --> 0:00:15.480
<v Speaker 1>treats crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as the

0:00:15.600 --> 0:00:20.200
<v Speaker 1>rich pill poppers in the penthouse the Clearinghouse of Hot takes,

<v Speaker 1>to the mail bag. We had an interesting weekend so far.

0:00:55.920 --> 0:00:57.720
<v Speaker 1>We had Benny versus the Penny on Friday, which we

0:00:57.760 --> 0:01:01.040
<v Speaker 1>always do, and gave all my NFL picks, and then

0:01:01.960 --> 0:01:06.840
<v Speaker 1>we had a dueling Banjo's thing with spilled drinks and

0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:11.840
<v Speaker 1>driving long distances and other random things that popped up

0:01:11.840 --> 0:01:15.240
<v Speaker 1>on the podcast on Saturday. Yeah, man, you're officially a

0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:19.200
<v Speaker 1>Phoenix sun right now. Man, oh man, what a what

0:01:19.319 --> 0:01:21.680
<v Speaker 1>a drive? What a long drive? Well we'll be making

0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:27.120
<v Speaker 1>that drive, Danny. Yeah, super Bowl, super Bowl Baby, Maybe

0:01:27.120 --> 0:01:29.920
<v Speaker 1>we can stay at Turk's house. We'll we'll, we'll harass

0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:32.080
<v Speaker 1>Turk and make him put us up in his house

0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:34.440
<v Speaker 1>for a night or something like that. We'll see. Or

0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:36.319
<v Speaker 1>we can just drive back. Who knows, we go for

0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:38.680
<v Speaker 1>a day and drive outs a long long way to haul.

0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:43.080
<v Speaker 1>But why not with that? Oh yeah, yeah, that's diarrhea?

0:01:43.200 --> 0:01:47.160
<v Speaker 1>All right. These are actual questions by actual listeners on

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:50.320
<v Speaker 1>the mailback. Before we get started, we must queue up

0:01:50.360 --> 0:02:08.960
<v Speaker 1>the band and our man, Ohio, al it's all right,

0:02:09.320 --> 0:02:12.919
<v Speaker 1>great job as always, Ohio all what a smart man

0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:16.680
<v Speaker 1>he knew by making that little ditty that that thing

0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:22.480
<v Speaker 1>would get airplay every weekend on this podcast. Genius genius

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:25.920

0:02:31.880 --> 0:02:36.360
<v Speaker 1>start out with Mike from Fullerton. These these messages sent

0:02:36.440 --> 0:02:39.399
<v Speaker 1>either via email Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com,

0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:42.799
<v Speaker 1>no numbers, all letters, Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com,

0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:45.560
<v Speaker 1>or the Facebook page which is Ben Mallard's show, our

0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:49.280
<v Speaker 1>show Facebook page. So Mike from Fullerton rights and he says, Hey, Ben,

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:51.920
<v Speaker 1>I have a hard old radio question for you this week.

0:02:52.480 --> 0:02:56.240
<v Speaker 1>Generally our national sports radio guys supposed to be welcoming

0:02:56.280 --> 0:03:01.000
<v Speaker 1>the fans of every franchise, even if it's the cheating

0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:05.399
<v Speaker 1>as rows. The fact that you actually give strong opinions,

0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:08.840
<v Speaker 1>including the negative ones, on My Angels, is a big

0:03:08.880 --> 0:03:10.799
<v Speaker 1>reason why I'm a fan of the show. But I'm

0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:15.160
<v Speaker 1>curious if trashing a franchise, no matter how well deserved,

0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:21.120
<v Speaker 1>breaks some kind of national radio handbook or something. All right,

0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:24.040
<v Speaker 1>So so, Mike, there there's really no handbook that I

0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:27.880
<v Speaker 1>know of. Maybe I didn't get the talking points from

0:03:27.880 --> 0:03:32.080
<v Speaker 1>from management, but it's really how I got into to radio,

0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:34.880
<v Speaker 1>and it has changed. I will agree with you, Mike,

0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:37.600
<v Speaker 1>that the business has changed. It's a lot more cheerleaders

0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:40.280
<v Speaker 1>and there's people that are in the tank for the

0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:43.240
<v Speaker 1>hometown team and all that, and that wasn't how it

0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:46.840
<v Speaker 1>was when I got in to radio. And I guess

0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:49.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm becoming one of the last and the Mohicans these days.

0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:50.920
<v Speaker 1>But there are a bunch of people in certain cities

0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:54.640
<v Speaker 1>that do it. It really goes by market, and I

0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:56.600
<v Speaker 1>was lucky enough to work in the Boston market a

0:03:56.600 --> 0:03:59.760
<v Speaker 1>little bit remotely, and that's a town where they trash

0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:02.160
<v Speaker 1>the Red Sox if they play poorly. The patriots of

0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:05.680
<v Speaker 1>the Celtics. Philadelphia is a town like that New York,

0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:09.520
<v Speaker 1>although even that's changed a little bit. But as far

0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:15.400
<v Speaker 1>as the national stuff now, all we get told by

0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:19.880
<v Speaker 1>management unless I miss something here, Danny is do a

0:04:20.000 --> 0:04:24.280
<v Speaker 1>good show, do an engaging show, doing entertaining show, keep

0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:27.640
<v Speaker 1>people listening as long as you can possibly keep people listening.

0:04:28.320 --> 0:04:31.599
<v Speaker 1>And however you do that, whatever you do to create

0:04:31.640 --> 0:04:34.719
<v Speaker 1>an audience and to captivate an audience is what you

0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:37.080
<v Speaker 1>have to do. And just don't get us in trouble.

0:04:37.800 --> 0:04:40.440
<v Speaker 1>Am I correct? Danny? Isn't that pretty much the mantra

0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:47.159
<v Speaker 1>from from management? Well, Hollywood, my man, that radio handbook

0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:53.200
<v Speaker 1>you spoke of is in your company email, in your inbox. Well, man,

0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:58.559
<v Speaker 1>let me tell you about man. We're gonna make you famous. Yeah,

0:04:58.600 --> 0:05:01.040
<v Speaker 1>there's no there's no hand book. It's just supposed to

0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:04.960
<v Speaker 1>be glued to your radio type programming. In other words,

0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:08.279
<v Speaker 1>if I'm driving home Ben late at night and you're

0:05:08.320 --> 0:05:11.960
<v Speaker 1>on the radio and I pull into my driveway, you're

0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:14.599
<v Speaker 1>so compelling that I don't want to get out of

0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:18.400
<v Speaker 1>my car. Yeah, or whoever the guy is on the radio,

0:05:18.400 --> 0:05:22.640
<v Speaker 1>whether it's me or Danny g or whoever, Like, if

0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:27.760
<v Speaker 1>something happens and your thought is, I wonder what numb

0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:30.000
<v Speaker 1>nuts thinks about this, you know, And I happen to

0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:31.960
<v Speaker 1>be the numb nuts. Like that's a good thing, right

0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:36.240
<v Speaker 1>if you're And unfortunately, we do have a number of

0:05:36.279 --> 0:05:38.120
<v Speaker 1>people that do look forward to it. And and and

0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:40.280
<v Speaker 1>in the same people Danny like to bust my balls

0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:42.480
<v Speaker 1>when I when I give something out and give an

0:05:42.480 --> 0:05:45.039
<v Speaker 1>opinion out and all that stuff. And but that's fine

0:05:45.080 --> 0:05:47.760
<v Speaker 1>as long as you're as long as you're listening. But

0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:50.359
<v Speaker 1>I do think the business has shifted, the pendulum has

0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:54.440
<v Speaker 1>shifted away from being critical. And there's a lot a

0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:56.680
<v Speaker 1>lot more people that are doing this now that are

0:05:56.720 --> 0:06:03.040
<v Speaker 1>not not holding people accountable, and they're they're making excuses,

0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:07.719
<v Speaker 1>and I find that as dull as dishwater. Other people,

0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:09.880
<v Speaker 1>I guess like it. I don't know, to each their own.

0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:12.320
<v Speaker 1>It's an acquired taste. I didn't grow up listening to

0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:14.920
<v Speaker 1>sports radio like that, so I'm not used to it,

0:06:15.600 --> 0:06:17.840
<v Speaker 1>and I don't really enjoy it, but there's clearly an

0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:21.279
<v Speaker 1>audience for it. But I like throwing haymakers. Well, the

0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:24.800
<v Speaker 1>great Petros and money say that there's only one thing

0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:29.360
<v Speaker 1>that gets more ratings than sports. And that's fun. So

0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:32.559
<v Speaker 1>when you have shows that have a lot of fun

0:06:32.640 --> 0:06:37.120
<v Speaker 1>games and content and fun callers and things like that,

0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:41.599
<v Speaker 1>to me, that's the best radio that's on the radio. Yeah,

0:06:41.680 --> 0:06:46.800
<v Speaker 1>it's like making uh, spaghetti or something. There's different spices

0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:49.360
<v Speaker 1>you can put in there, and different seasoning you can

0:06:49.440 --> 0:06:54.720
<v Speaker 1>add and changes the taste and the flavor of the

0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:57.440
<v Speaker 1>the meal. And so that's how that goes. But thank you, Mike.

0:06:57.560 --> 0:07:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Next up Hill Billy, Mike writes in and he says,

0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:05.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, Benjamin Danny Gee, I've been hearing about raising

0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:08.520
<v Speaker 1>canes off and on. You've talked about it over the years,

0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:15.120
<v Speaker 1>and your go to for substituting one thing for something else.

0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:18.080
<v Speaker 1>I never paid much attention to it, he'll bully, Mike says,

0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:20.760
<v Speaker 1>because we didn't have them here, but they're building one

0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:26.440
<v Speaker 1>right down the road from him in Chester, Virginia. And

0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 1>I wanted your go to, all right, So so he'll

0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:31.560
<v Speaker 1>be with Mike. My go to it raising canes. I

0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:35.920
<v Speaker 1>go Keniak combo, no cole Slaw, no veggies, no cole Slaw,

0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:40.200
<v Speaker 1>extra fries. There's also if you like the bread they

0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 1>toasted on one side. But if you ask for it

0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:44.640
<v Speaker 1>toasted on both sides. They'll give you a fresh piece

0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:48.160
<v Speaker 1>of bread, get it toasted on both sides, and then

0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:51.200
<v Speaker 1>I normally get lemonade easy ice, and then when I

0:07:51.280 --> 0:07:53.760
<v Speaker 1>drink the lemonade, I then fill it up with one

0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:57.040
<v Speaker 1>of the uh, the regular beverages that they have there.

0:07:57.080 --> 0:07:59.960
<v Speaker 1>So that's that's my go to. I love raising cane

0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:04.160
<v Speaker 1>better than any other chicken joint that's out there, including

0:08:04.520 --> 0:08:07.680
<v Speaker 1>the big one that doesn't open on Sundays there, so

0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Chick fil A I like raising canes more. But that's

0:08:11.080 --> 0:08:13.960
<v Speaker 1>my my go to. I'm all about it. But like

0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:16.360
<v Speaker 1>everything else, the price has gone up up in a way,

0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:18.840
<v Speaker 1>Danny right. It used to be fast food with cheap food.

0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:23.520
<v Speaker 1>Now not so much. Yeah, And unfortunately where I live now,

0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:27.080
<v Speaker 1>there's no raising canes in my backyard, but if there was,

0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:29.080
<v Speaker 1>I would have to go on a solo mission there.

0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:32.960
<v Speaker 1>I have to deduct points from Mike Cleopatra because I

0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:35.480
<v Speaker 1>took her to raising keynes when we were visiting San

0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:39.440
<v Speaker 1>Diego or Temecula. Rather we were in Temecula. I took

0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:42.800
<v Speaker 1>her to a raising canes ben. She turned her nose up.

0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:46.800
<v Speaker 1>She thought it was overfried. She didn't like it. She's like, well,

0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:48.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand what all the hype in the fuss

0:08:49.040 --> 0:08:52.240
<v Speaker 1>was about. And right then I had to really do

0:08:52.400 --> 0:08:56.720
<v Speaker 1>some deep introspection. Yes, that's the exact word I was

0:08:56.760 --> 0:08:59.800
<v Speaker 1>looking for, because at that point I just wasn't sure

0:08:59.800 --> 0:09:05.560
<v Speaker 1>if I was with the right woman. Yeah, that can

0:09:05.679 --> 0:09:08.960
<v Speaker 1>that can end a relationship. You know, people think we're

0:09:09.000 --> 0:09:10.640
<v Speaker 1>kidding here, but no, I mean that's a that's a

0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:13.040
<v Speaker 1>deal breaker for a lot of people. You gotta think

0:09:13.440 --> 0:09:16.160
<v Speaker 1>how many meals you eat today, how many times you

0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:18.440
<v Speaker 1>would like to go get that nice fried chicken from

0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Raising Kines. They had to buy a commercial on this

0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:25.320
<v Speaker 1>show we're giving away. But it's you're right, and I

0:09:25.360 --> 0:09:29.200
<v Speaker 1>mean I have similar issues with my my bride. She

0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:31.679
<v Speaker 1>she has like a gluten free diet that she's on

0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:33.480
<v Speaker 1>most of the time, so she doesn't need a lot

0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:36.080
<v Speaker 1>of a lot of bread. I like bread, but I

0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:37.840
<v Speaker 1>only eat once a day. So when I eat, I

0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:40.880
<v Speaker 1>go big. I go big and I go home is

0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:42.680
<v Speaker 1>what I do. And so we go back and forth.

0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:44.079
<v Speaker 1>But the cool thing is she doesn't really care. I

0:09:44.120 --> 0:09:46.160
<v Speaker 1>can eat, we can eat separate things as long as

0:09:46.200 --> 0:09:48.640
<v Speaker 1>we're kind of in the same area. So it's all

0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:51.480
<v Speaker 1>it's all good there, all right. Next up on the

0:09:51.520 --> 0:09:55.720
<v Speaker 1>mail bag, Berry from Music City USA, right saying yo

0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:59.360
<v Speaker 1>yo mob Benny. He says, uh, the sound bite of

0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:04.839
<v Speaker 1>no Barrowe is awesome, and I know it took Jake

0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Warner a long time to find that sound bite and

0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:13.880
<v Speaker 1>you loved it. Was there ever sound bites for number

0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:18.080
<v Speaker 1>two through number nine by the same artist? Would you

0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:20.560
<v Speaker 1>take a new drop of number one to ten? But

0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:23.720
<v Speaker 1>a talented artist, I would love to have drops for

0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:28.880
<v Speaker 1>number two through nine. Alex Tisher actually knows one of

0:10:28.880 --> 0:10:31.880
<v Speaker 1>our engineers. He he knew where some of those bites were,

0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:34.880
<v Speaker 1>but they're not the same voice. Guy, He says, I

0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:37.880
<v Speaker 1>think you should send out a call to the Mallam

0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:40.440
<v Speaker 1>Militia to make those for you. Well, that's a great idea.

0:10:41.320 --> 0:10:43.480
<v Speaker 1>That's a great idea, Barry, if somebody wants to send

0:10:43.480 --> 0:10:45.120
<v Speaker 1>in now. They gotta sound good though, right there, and

0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:48.400
<v Speaker 1>they can't be cheesy. You know the nineties band you

0:10:48.480 --> 0:10:51.600
<v Speaker 1>had it, You had one on KRT as well, your

0:10:51.720 --> 0:10:55.200
<v Speaker 1>name Jingle. Yes, I still have a cart somewhere. I

0:10:55.240 --> 0:10:58.679
<v Speaker 1>still have the cart. I love that, by all. I

0:10:58.760 --> 0:11:01.480
<v Speaker 1>have that cart some where in my collection here as

0:11:01.520 --> 0:11:05.160
<v Speaker 1>well for my name, And there used to be donuts

0:11:05.200 --> 0:11:07.760
<v Speaker 1>that we played on the radio station. And then right

0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:10.560
<v Speaker 1>in the middle of that quote unquote donut, you would

0:11:10.600 --> 0:11:14.280
<v Speaker 1>play your name jingle, so it would be like back

0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:19.320
<v Speaker 1>to back fresh jams. Danny G. Yeah, I love it.

0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:22.360
<v Speaker 1>I love it. I have a nerd when it comes

0:11:22.360 --> 0:11:26.600
<v Speaker 1>to jingles. There's a great jingle place in Dallas that

0:11:26.800 --> 0:11:31.240
<v Speaker 1>makes most of those professional radio jingles. And the famous

0:11:31.280 --> 0:11:35.640
<v Speaker 1>story is that Clayton Kershaw's father worked at that place

0:11:36.880 --> 0:11:40.720
<v Speaker 1>in the in Dallas. So yeah, dad was a radio

0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:43.920
<v Speaker 1>helped make radio jingles. Do you know if that place

0:11:44.000 --> 0:11:47.080
<v Speaker 1>is still around? Uh, yeah it is. For some reason,

0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:49.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm having a mental block, but yeah, they'll make you

0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:53.240
<v Speaker 1>jingle for They have singers that go in and sing

0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:56.360
<v Speaker 1>the jingles and stuff. That's awesome. I want one for

0:11:56.360 --> 0:11:59.160
<v Speaker 1>the fifth hour. I know. I would love to get

0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:00.679
<v Speaker 1>one for the fifth I don't know how much they

0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:03.640
<v Speaker 1>would charge us, probably a lot because we're associated with

0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:06.280
<v Speaker 1>the big corporation. They don't realize that this is mostly

0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:12.400
<v Speaker 1>a mom and pop shop. But it's uh big time.

0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:17.360
<v Speaker 1>Uh what is it? It's I'm trying to thank you.

0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Let me see if I can I know the gist

0:12:20.360 --> 0:12:25.960
<v Speaker 1>of it. Let me see. It's in Dallas, and let

0:12:26.000 --> 0:12:27.560
<v Speaker 1>me see. I give them a plug here because they're

0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:33.840
<v Speaker 1>really they're really good here. Jam Yeah, Jam Creative Productions,

0:12:33.920 --> 0:12:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Jam Create. It's called it jingles dot com. What a

0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:40.840
<v Speaker 1>perfect website. What a perfect website, jingles dot com. And

0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:43.960
<v Speaker 1>they make radio jingle station I d s like Danny

0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:46.520
<v Speaker 1>was referencing and all that, and they also do it

0:12:46.600 --> 0:12:48.200
<v Speaker 1>for I guess they'll do it for anybody. So if

0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:51.640
<v Speaker 1>you have your podcast like this, they'll they'll do it.

0:12:51.840 --> 0:12:56.040
<v Speaker 1>And it's pretty cool, pretty cool. It was called JAM.

0:12:56.080 --> 0:12:59.560
<v Speaker 1>It was called JAM Productions before, but now it's called

0:12:59.720 --> 0:13:02.320
<v Speaker 1>just al right, it's just still called Jam Production. It's

0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:04.080
<v Speaker 1>called JAM. I thought it was called something else before.

0:13:04.120 --> 0:13:06.439
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, jingles dot com is the website. So I'm

0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:09.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna send an email to Scott to see if he'll

0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:14.360
<v Speaker 1>allocate some budget for some jingles. That would be awesome. Yeah,

0:13:14.440 --> 0:13:16.760
<v Speaker 1>I would love that. I would love a new fresh

0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Ben Mallard jingle and uh, and then one for this

0:13:20.200 --> 0:13:22.360
<v Speaker 1>show for you, and then you could do it for

0:13:22.360 --> 0:13:24.880
<v Speaker 1>for for your other show, right for for Cavino and

0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:27.000
<v Speaker 1>Rich you could have a jingle made for them. I'm

0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:29.880
<v Speaker 1>sure they would love jingles. Oh they're radio guys, they

0:13:29.920 --> 0:13:32.320
<v Speaker 1>would love that. Come on, it would be all about it.

0:13:32.320 --> 0:13:42.160
<v Speaker 1>They'd be like, yeah, it's so exciting. Oh, it's so good. Alright,

0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:47.080
<v Speaker 1>Next up, Pierre. Let's see we have Pierre from sixth

0:13:47.080 --> 0:13:51.920
<v Speaker 1>place in the Mallard Militia Fantasy football contest on DraftKings.

0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:55.120
<v Speaker 1>He says, Man, I believe that you sleep less than

0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:58.720
<v Speaker 1>I do. That is, unless you are not, in fact,

0:13:58.760 --> 0:14:01.240
<v Speaker 1>actually posting on so social media and are allowing your

0:14:01.360 --> 0:14:07.120
<v Speaker 1>vast social media team to handle such petty duties. I

0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:09.760
<v Speaker 1>guess my question is how many people does Fox Sports

0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:15.599
<v Speaker 1>Radio employed to maintain the social media empire of the

0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:19.120
<v Speaker 1>media giants such as yourself. Well, Pierre, we're never supposed

0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:20.720
<v Speaker 1>to talk about how we make the hot dogs, isn't

0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:22.320
<v Speaker 1>that what we say? Danny, You can't talk about how

0:14:22.360 --> 0:14:24.920
<v Speaker 1>you make the hot dogs and ruin the magic of

0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:27.560
<v Speaker 1>how this is all made. But there is an army

0:14:27.600 --> 0:14:30.360
<v Speaker 1>of people behind the scenes. It's a small army. It's

0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:33.320
<v Speaker 1>the size of the Vatican's army. But it's a small,

0:14:33.440 --> 0:14:38.840
<v Speaker 1>small group that defends the social media channels. And if

0:14:38.880 --> 0:14:43.080
<v Speaker 1>you only take turns, if you only knew who was

0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:47.320
<v Speaker 1>in the watch tower. It would amaze you if you

0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:50.560
<v Speaker 1>had that kind of intel. Are you gonna pay the

0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:52.920
<v Speaker 1>eight dollars a month for Twitter or are you gonna

0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:56.480
<v Speaker 1>build that to the company? Oh I am not. I

0:14:56.480 --> 0:14:58.520
<v Speaker 1>am not paying. If the company wants me to be verified,

0:14:58.560 --> 0:15:02.080
<v Speaker 1>they have I hear they have the money to afford that. Um,

0:15:02.880 --> 0:15:05.320
<v Speaker 1>but are you gonna pay eight dollars a month to

0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:07.440
<v Speaker 1>get verified? Any Are you gonna go down that road?

0:15:08.120 --> 0:15:10.880
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't affect me, so I don't care. Now it's

0:15:10.920 --> 0:15:12.840
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be a badge of honor now to not

0:15:12.960 --> 0:15:16.080
<v Speaker 1>have the blue check mark. Yeah, I see. Like the

0:15:16.120 --> 0:15:18.760
<v Speaker 1>whole point of it was it was special because you

0:15:18.840 --> 0:15:20.800
<v Speaker 1>had to earn it. You didn't pay for it something,

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:22.440
<v Speaker 1>they had to give it to you. But now it's

0:15:22.560 --> 0:15:24.760
<v Speaker 1>if you just buy it, it's not really that special

0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:27.440
<v Speaker 1>because anyone can get it. You know, a couple of

0:15:27.520 --> 0:15:31.440
<v Speaker 1>years ago, when I looked into getting my my page verified,

0:15:32.080 --> 0:15:34.200
<v Speaker 1>they got back to me and they said, cool, you're

0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:36.840
<v Speaker 1>in line to get the check mark. All you need

0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:39.520
<v Speaker 1>to do is have a website now so we can

0:15:39.640 --> 0:15:42.800
<v Speaker 1>verify you. I did the website and then I heard

0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:47.560
<v Speaker 1>back saying we're pausing all verifications at the moment, so

0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:49.400
<v Speaker 1>it was just for me. It was a black hole

0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:53.880
<v Speaker 1>and not at the Oakland Coliseum. Well that sucks. I

0:15:53.920 --> 0:15:55.880
<v Speaker 1>had to jump through a bunch of hoops. I've told

0:15:55.880 --> 0:15:58.920
<v Speaker 1>the story before. I just send my driver's license in

0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:02.800
<v Speaker 1>and they had to get all my personal information. They own.

0:16:02.960 --> 0:16:08.240
<v Speaker 1>Twitter has all my information. You see all the athletes

0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:11.040
<v Speaker 1>and celebrities that have been tweeting saying if you don't

0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:14.120
<v Speaker 1>know who I am, if I haven't earned this, screw you.

0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:17.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna pay. Yeah, well, we'll see how this

0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:20.720
<v Speaker 1>plays out. And people are upset because you know, when

0:16:20.760 --> 0:16:22.720
<v Speaker 1>something's free and then you charge for it, Why would

0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:25.200
<v Speaker 1>you pay for something you were getting for free? You

0:16:25.240 --> 0:16:27.880
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean? Like it's like the old line

0:16:27.920 --> 0:16:31.040
<v Speaker 1>about the why buy the cow if you're getting the

0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:33.840
<v Speaker 1>milk for free? You know, the the dating line we

0:16:33.960 --> 0:16:39.040
<v Speaker 1>heard back in the day with me you get me

0:16:39.200 --> 0:16:43.360
<v Speaker 1>that good stuff got mail. Next up is Adrian in

0:16:43.400 --> 0:16:45.240
<v Speaker 1>the Mile High City. He says, Ben and Danny g

0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:49.400
<v Speaker 1>are buddy, Adrian. I've been singing the Dodger blues the

0:16:49.480 --> 0:16:53.360
<v Speaker 1>last couple of weeks. The Dodgers always have great regular

0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:56.120
<v Speaker 1>seasons and then suck at a time they cannot suck

0:16:56.280 --> 0:16:59.320
<v Speaker 1>during the playoffs. I don't know why I thought this

0:16:59.360 --> 0:17:03.040
<v Speaker 1>season would be different. The Big Blue Choking Crew cost

0:17:03.120 --> 0:17:07.640
<v Speaker 1>me my Dodger World Series Championship wager. Sorry about that, Adrian,

0:17:08.040 --> 0:17:11.000
<v Speaker 1>He says, go Phillies, and then he points out he's

0:17:11.000 --> 0:17:13.920
<v Speaker 1>who's writing this and who knows. Now it's Sunday. Maybe

0:17:13.920 --> 0:17:16.480
<v Speaker 1>the World Series is over by now, but things were

0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:18.280
<v Speaker 1>looking good for the Phillies at the time he sent

0:17:18.359 --> 0:17:21.040
<v Speaker 1>this in. He says, speaking of the cheaters, Big Ben

0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:24.399
<v Speaker 1>had me. You had me laughing my ass off and

0:17:24.400 --> 0:17:28.040
<v Speaker 1>the meter reader car when you were saying that you

0:17:28.040 --> 0:17:30.679
<v Speaker 1>would no longer be a Dodger fan if they signed

0:17:30.680 --> 0:17:36.760
<v Speaker 1>Carlos Correa this offseason. F albub. Now, I was not kidding, Adrian.

0:17:37.240 --> 0:17:39.880
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people thought I was exaggerating. No, no

0:17:39.960 --> 0:17:43.040
<v Speaker 1>I am. I am so far on the side of

0:17:43.040 --> 0:17:47.040
<v Speaker 1>the aisle, which is anti assholes that if the Dodgers

0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:51.880
<v Speaker 1>signed an asshole Carlos Correa, I'm out. I'm out. I'll

0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:55.320
<v Speaker 1>still watch baseball, I'll bet on baseball like Pete Rose,

0:17:55.920 --> 0:17:58.800
<v Speaker 1>but I am not going to invest myself in a

0:17:58.840 --> 0:18:02.160
<v Speaker 1>franchise that law lost a World Series to a team cheating,

0:18:02.560 --> 0:18:05.080
<v Speaker 1>and he was one of the key cheaters, and then

0:18:05.119 --> 0:18:08.160
<v Speaker 1>you sign that guy down the line. I don't want

0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:10.800
<v Speaker 1>to be a party of that. And if they signed

0:18:10.880 --> 0:18:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Korey and I don't believe they will, But if the

0:18:13.560 --> 0:18:17.560
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers do, I'm out. I'm out. As long as he's

0:18:17.600 --> 0:18:20.720
<v Speaker 1>wearing Dodger blue, I'm not. And so that's the way

0:18:20.720 --> 0:18:23.639
<v Speaker 1>it is. That's how strongly I feel. And that is

0:18:23.680 --> 0:18:25.800
<v Speaker 1>a That is a deal breaker for me. That is

0:18:25.800 --> 0:18:28.480
<v Speaker 1>a deal breaker. And I don't think they'll do it.

0:18:28.480 --> 0:18:30.920
<v Speaker 1>I think they'll sign Dan's by Swanson or bring back

0:18:30.960 --> 0:18:34.639
<v Speaker 1>Trade Turner, or signs Andrew Bogart's, any of those guys,

0:18:35.040 --> 0:18:39.080
<v Speaker 1>not Carlos Carey, Dan's by route, that's better. And you

0:18:39.119 --> 0:18:42.120
<v Speaker 1>know what, man, it would be like if Machado returned

0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:45.359
<v Speaker 1>to the Dodgers. He has such a punchable face, so

0:18:45.480 --> 0:18:49.160
<v Speaker 1>does Correa. I can't imagine those guys wearing Dodger blue

0:18:49.280 --> 0:18:52.800
<v Speaker 1>right now. You'd want to punch your TV screen. Yeah,

0:18:52.920 --> 0:18:55.760
<v Speaker 1>Krea is just a dick. I don't want the guy

0:18:55.800 --> 0:18:58.520
<v Speaker 1>on the team, and they shouldn't want him either. He's

0:18:58.560 --> 0:19:02.080
<v Speaker 1>bad news. He's bed news Bears is what he is,

0:19:02.119 --> 0:19:05.840
<v Speaker 1>just like Eddie's Halloween costume. Bad news Bears all right,

0:19:06.280 --> 0:19:09.040
<v Speaker 1>next up? Actually, well there's more from Adrian. But wait,

0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:10.840
<v Speaker 1>there's more. He says, As you fellas know, I listened

0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:14.880
<v Speaker 1>to podcast while driving around and reading water meters. Well,

0:19:14.920 --> 0:19:17.199
<v Speaker 1>of course I have to make pitch stops here and

0:19:17.240 --> 0:19:20.200
<v Speaker 1>there to use the restroom, which means I stop at

0:19:20.240 --> 0:19:23.760
<v Speaker 1>a lot of porta potties or outhouses. Oh boy along

0:19:23.760 --> 0:19:26.080
<v Speaker 1>the way. Why is it that some of the most

0:19:26.160 --> 0:19:30.040
<v Speaker 1>foul things someone can think to say are written in

0:19:30.160 --> 0:19:33.680
<v Speaker 1>black sharpie on the walls of the outhouse or the

0:19:34.040 --> 0:19:37.959
<v Speaker 1>porta pisser? Also, whose idea was it to start that?

0:19:38.160 --> 0:19:41.080
<v Speaker 1>Most of the time those things are disgusting, and I'm

0:19:41.119 --> 0:19:43.640
<v Speaker 1>trying to piss and get the hell out of there

0:19:44.160 --> 0:19:47.080
<v Speaker 1>as quickly as possible, not stick around in there and

0:19:47.160 --> 0:19:53.760
<v Speaker 1>scribble out a nasty racist message your thoughts get Yeah,

0:19:53.800 --> 0:19:56.840
<v Speaker 1>it's it's always been that way every in the old

0:19:56.880 --> 0:20:01.160
<v Speaker 1>bathroom writing. So I guess the because the theory would

0:20:01.200 --> 0:20:04.200
<v Speaker 1>be that assholes are attracted to ship, and so there's

0:20:04.200 --> 0:20:08.040
<v Speaker 1>shipped in there, and so the assholes that they get

0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:11.040
<v Speaker 1>excited by that, the schmucks and the mama Lukes, so like, hey,

0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:13.760
<v Speaker 1>I can they can write nasty stuff and nobody will

0:20:13.760 --> 0:20:15.760
<v Speaker 1>know it's me, and I'll get away with it because

0:20:15.800 --> 0:20:18.800
<v Speaker 1>there's no cameras in here. And why are there so

0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:24.159
<v Speaker 1>many accidents inside there? Though? People suddenly lose their aim

0:20:24.240 --> 0:20:27.160
<v Speaker 1>as soon as they step into a border potty. Yeah,

0:20:27.200 --> 0:20:30.040
<v Speaker 1>and also there's a lot of weird things that people

0:20:30.119 --> 0:20:33.480
<v Speaker 1>put in the bowl, which is actually a bowl that

0:20:33.560 --> 0:20:35.919
<v Speaker 1>you would never put in your toilet at home. They

0:20:36.000 --> 0:20:40.080
<v Speaker 1>use it as a trash can. Oh, it's so disgusting, nasty.

0:20:40.080 --> 0:20:42.560
<v Speaker 1>He gives gives me the willie's just even hearing his

0:20:42.680 --> 0:20:46.520
<v Speaker 1>email about those things. I mean, that's last resort town

0:20:46.640 --> 0:20:49.160
<v Speaker 1>right there. Man. I was at a high school football

0:20:49.200 --> 0:20:52.000
<v Speaker 1>game a couple of Fridays ago, and of course when

0:20:52.000 --> 0:20:54.080
<v Speaker 1>I went to look for the restroom, they had porta

0:20:54.119 --> 0:20:57.439
<v Speaker 1>potties lined up, and I was like, oh God, I

0:20:57.440 --> 0:21:00.000
<v Speaker 1>gotta piss so bad though, So I went in there,

0:21:00.080 --> 0:21:03.600
<v Speaker 1>Ben and I did the old T shirt over the nose. Yeah,

0:21:04.040 --> 0:21:07.439
<v Speaker 1>still didn't help. Now, well, we have a competitive advanch

0:21:07.560 --> 0:21:10.800
<v Speaker 1>over the women, but it's still still not great. I

0:21:10.880 --> 0:21:14.440
<v Speaker 1>was using hand sanitizer for ten fifteen minutes NonStop after

0:21:14.480 --> 0:21:16.719
<v Speaker 1>that you'd rather go out in the woods and go

0:21:16.800 --> 0:21:20.360
<v Speaker 1>behind a tree or something like that. The lastly, Adrian

0:21:20.440 --> 0:21:23.359
<v Speaker 1>says that Phil in cat Brandon from a couple of

0:21:23.359 --> 0:21:26.439
<v Speaker 1>weeks ago, he says he sounds like Pinocchio from the

0:21:26.440 --> 0:21:30.159
<v Speaker 1>Shrek movies. If he ever fills in again, you should

0:21:30.160 --> 0:21:34.080
<v Speaker 1>have him say I'm a real boy like Pinocchio did

0:21:34.080 --> 0:21:39.840
<v Speaker 1>in the movie. He goes, wow. All right. Anyway, says

0:21:39.880 --> 0:21:44.439
<v Speaker 1>the Broncos get the w against the Jags in London.

0:21:44.560 --> 0:21:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Those high knees on the plane paid off. He says,

0:21:50.320 --> 0:21:54.119
<v Speaker 1>Broncos country, Let's ride. Quoting Russell Wilson. He says, I'll

0:21:54.160 --> 0:21:57.640
<v Speaker 1>be listening to the Friday Penny podcast to see who

0:21:57.680 --> 0:22:02.880
<v Speaker 1>Ben takes in the Denver UH and Tennessee a game.

0:22:03.520 --> 0:22:06.840
<v Speaker 1>He points out here. So anyway, Adrian, that's Adrian of

0:22:06.840 --> 0:22:11.480
<v Speaker 1>the Mile said he sent in some photos of Halloween,

0:22:11.600 --> 0:22:13.880
<v Speaker 1>and I gotta tell you doing some good costumes here.

0:22:13.920 --> 0:22:16.240
<v Speaker 1>But the one that I was most impressed with your

0:22:16.320 --> 0:22:20.120
<v Speaker 1>son dressed up as an in and out employee. That's

0:22:20.200 --> 0:22:23.320
<v Speaker 1>really good. That is a So I don't think you

0:22:23.520 --> 0:22:25.800
<v Speaker 1>bought all that. I think some of that you just made.

0:22:25.920 --> 0:22:29.959
<v Speaker 1>And that's that's really cool. They're so good job. I

0:22:30.000 --> 0:22:33.640
<v Speaker 1>saw it in and out costume in my neighborhood on Halloween.

0:22:33.920 --> 0:22:38.199
<v Speaker 1>It made me so hungry. That's good look, man, I

0:22:38.240 --> 0:22:41.680
<v Speaker 1>gotta tell you that's a good look, so solid job.

0:22:41.720 --> 0:22:43.080
<v Speaker 1>And I love that you and your wife at the

0:22:43.080 --> 0:22:45.480
<v Speaker 1>Bronco game. They lost the game, but you both had

0:22:45.520 --> 0:22:48.760
<v Speaker 1>the nice You had the old school Bronco logo, which

0:22:48.840 --> 0:22:52.399
<v Speaker 1>I love. I love that old Bronco logo because it

0:22:52.680 --> 0:22:55.399
<v Speaker 1>makes me flashback to when I was a kid and

0:22:55.440 --> 0:22:57.320
<v Speaker 1>I used to the Broncos would always be in prime

0:22:57.359 --> 0:22:59.840
<v Speaker 1>time because Pat Bowl and the old owner right didn't

0:22:59.840 --> 0:23:03.280
<v Speaker 1>he he was on the television committee. So the Broncos always,

0:23:03.600 --> 0:23:05.760
<v Speaker 1>even when they weren't that good, would always end up

0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:08.880
<v Speaker 1>on a lot of Monday night football games. Cool by

0:23:08.920 --> 0:23:13.639
<v Speaker 1>Loo Broncos. Last, we'll keep it going here. Who is

0:23:14.280 --> 0:23:17.960
<v Speaker 1>who is next? On the old the mail bag? I

0:23:18.000 --> 0:23:22.760
<v Speaker 1>got mail? Yea, I got mail ya all right? Kevin

0:23:22.760 --> 0:23:25.520
<v Speaker 1>and Kansas says, do either of you have a fond

0:23:25.560 --> 0:23:31.040
<v Speaker 1>memory of some earlier sitcoms? I'm thinking the Turkeys Can't

0:23:31.080 --> 0:23:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Fly episode of w k RP and sent to Nati

0:23:34.640 --> 0:23:38.320
<v Speaker 1>or the finale of mash You both see him up

0:23:38.359 --> 0:23:41.640
<v Speaker 1>on pop culture, so I figured i'd I tap your

0:23:41.760 --> 0:23:44.680
<v Speaker 1>your memories. Oh yeah, I loved sitcoms back in the day,

0:23:45.000 --> 0:23:47.760
<v Speaker 1>and when I was a kid, there wasn't the Internet,

0:23:47.800 --> 0:23:49.879
<v Speaker 1>so we watched a lot of TV at the house.

0:23:49.920 --> 0:23:54.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean I watched everything from uh the what was

0:23:54.160 --> 0:23:58.239
<v Speaker 1>the the Well? The Jefferson's, watched that moving on up

0:23:58.280 --> 0:24:00.600
<v Speaker 1>to a was a penthouse on the west side or

0:24:00.600 --> 0:24:05.520
<v Speaker 1>something like that. Whatever it was, Three's coming up, Yeah,

0:24:05.560 --> 0:24:09.960
<v Speaker 1>Three's coming to the east side. There there there, Uh

0:24:10.160 --> 0:24:14.159
<v Speaker 1>Bosom Buddies, we went with Tom Hanks that was on.

0:24:15.600 --> 0:24:19.360
<v Speaker 1>Of course, Uh Mork and Mindy you go down the list, man.

0:24:19.400 --> 0:24:22.480
<v Speaker 1>We were big TV people. We were big TV people

0:24:22.800 --> 0:24:25.320
<v Speaker 1>in the day, and we loved being offs of spinoffs

0:24:25.320 --> 0:24:31.560
<v Speaker 1>of spinoffs. Yeah, watch Cheers, Mash, all those, all those.

0:24:31.600 --> 0:24:34.639
<v Speaker 1>You didn't watch Mash. When that would come on, that

0:24:34.680 --> 0:24:37.480
<v Speaker 1>would be a signal to turn the TV channel or

0:24:37.520 --> 0:24:41.200
<v Speaker 1>turn it off. Remember my older brother getting up when

0:24:41.200 --> 0:24:44.200
<v Speaker 1>the old Master reruns would come on, and he always grumbled,

0:24:44.400 --> 0:24:49.480
<v Speaker 1>this show sucks. We were too young. We didn't understand

0:24:49.520 --> 0:24:54.639
<v Speaker 1>anything going on in that show. So yeah, I we

0:24:54.680 --> 0:24:56.879
<v Speaker 1>had it on. I didn't like the bloody stuff either,

0:24:57.000 --> 0:25:01.560
<v Speaker 1>but I loved Hawkeye and I actually or or Clinger

0:25:01.880 --> 0:25:04.800
<v Speaker 1>believe we'll see what had? You see what had? I'm wearing, Danny,

0:25:04.840 --> 0:25:07.639
<v Speaker 1>this was this is an homage. A listener sent me this,

0:25:07.680 --> 0:25:11.280
<v Speaker 1>but in a homage to mash it looks kind of blurry.

0:25:11.320 --> 0:25:13.760
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was a death row hat. No, I'm

0:25:13.760 --> 0:25:16.119
<v Speaker 1>wearing a Toledo mud Hans hat. I have a Toledo

0:25:16.200 --> 0:25:19.639
<v Speaker 1>mud hands hat which was warm dog sent you that. No, No,

0:25:19.720 --> 0:25:23.520
<v Speaker 1>he sent me some weed, not that, not this smoke weed.

0:25:25.000 --> 0:25:28.119
<v Speaker 1>But on any specific moments, I mean I watched tons

0:25:28.160 --> 0:25:30.080
<v Speaker 1>of stuff. I don't know if any anything. I remember

0:25:30.119 --> 0:25:33.200
<v Speaker 1>the last episode of Cheers when everyone went on Jay

0:25:33.280 --> 0:25:35.840
<v Speaker 1>Leno and they were all hammered. Oh, speaking of that,

0:25:35.920 --> 0:25:38.920
<v Speaker 1>how about Johnny Carson's very last show. That was big

0:25:39.320 --> 0:25:42.119
<v Speaker 1>tonight we had that on. It was always I hated

0:25:42.160 --> 0:25:45.560
<v Speaker 1>the music acts. I wanted more comedy. I hated the interviews.

0:25:45.640 --> 0:25:49.199
<v Speaker 1>I loved the monologue of Carson. I love that. I

0:25:49.240 --> 0:25:52.399
<v Speaker 1>love when they did some funny bits, stick his bits.

0:25:52.480 --> 0:25:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Those were good. The headlines thing you know here. I

0:25:55.320 --> 0:25:59.159
<v Speaker 1>remember everybody gathering around the TV the night of his

0:25:59.280 --> 0:26:02.680
<v Speaker 1>final show. It was a big deal. Yeah, David Letterman

0:26:02.800 --> 0:26:07.480
<v Speaker 1>was was big also Letterman early days before he became

0:26:07.560 --> 0:26:12.280
<v Speaker 1>the main eleven o'clock where he talked about his NBC

0:26:12.440 --> 0:26:15.640
<v Speaker 1>bosses all the jib. Yeah, he talked NBC and ge

0:26:15.720 --> 0:26:18.840
<v Speaker 1>Right was in the Electric that owned owned the company,

0:26:18.880 --> 0:26:22.720
<v Speaker 1>and he'd mocked them and he just do crazy stuff

0:26:22.760 --> 0:26:25.719
<v Speaker 1>that It was wonderful because we didn't have the inn.

0:26:25.960 --> 0:26:28.080
<v Speaker 1>Now people do that crap all the time on TikTok,

0:26:28.119 --> 0:26:30.400
<v Speaker 1>but in our day back in the Stone Age, Danny,

0:26:30.640 --> 0:26:32.720
<v Speaker 1>that's that was amazing. That was like, this is the

0:26:32.720 --> 0:26:38.600
<v Speaker 1>greatest thing ever. Yeah, and he actually had good music acts. Yeah,

0:26:38.680 --> 0:26:41.119
<v Speaker 1>him and well Paul Schaeffer and they brought they brought

0:26:41.359 --> 0:26:44.600
<v Speaker 1>random people, but he I loved the Biff Biff Henderson

0:26:44.840 --> 0:26:48.240
<v Speaker 1>actually met him. It was the funniest thing. When I

0:26:48.320 --> 0:26:54.399
<v Speaker 1>covered the NBA Finals in two thousand, Biff Henderson was

0:26:54.720 --> 0:26:58.399
<v Speaker 1>at the finals there and it was not an act.

0:26:59.320 --> 0:27:01.760
<v Speaker 1>He really did not want to be there. It was

0:27:01.840 --> 0:27:04.000
<v Speaker 1>so funny because you think of that as kind of

0:27:04.040 --> 0:27:06.560
<v Speaker 1>a stick and all that he did not want to

0:27:06.600 --> 0:27:08.920
<v Speaker 1>be there. We saw him at the hotel in Indianapolis

0:27:09.000 --> 0:27:11.080
<v Speaker 1>and he was really bummed out that he was. It

0:27:11.119 --> 0:27:13.760
<v Speaker 1>was hilarious. I thought that was an act. But there

0:27:13.800 --> 0:27:16.359
<v Speaker 1>were no cameras. He was just like literally depressed. Maybe

0:27:16.359 --> 0:27:18.320
<v Speaker 1>that's just how we always looked. I don't know, I

0:27:18.720 --> 0:27:21.399
<v Speaker 1>have no idea, but it was. I have fun memories

0:27:21.440 --> 0:27:23.560
<v Speaker 1>of the Letterman show. Moving on, we got time for

0:27:23.600 --> 0:27:25.920
<v Speaker 1>a couple more quick ones here as we blast off

0:27:26.000 --> 0:27:29.560
<v Speaker 1>and says greetings Bob, Ross, Benny and King Danny. G

0:27:29.800 --> 0:27:32.840
<v Speaker 1>cool recap of the house party on the show, and

0:27:32.880 --> 0:27:38.200
<v Speaker 1>happy halfway on Benny versus the Penny. Neil, This is

0:27:38.200 --> 0:27:40.600
<v Speaker 1>from Neil from the Real Miami. But this week I

0:27:40.680 --> 0:27:45.440
<v Speaker 1>have downloaded your podcast from pick the Picturesque West Coast

0:27:45.480 --> 0:27:51.840
<v Speaker 1>of Ireland. And interestingly the commercials actually have Irish advertisements

0:27:51.840 --> 0:27:55.320
<v Speaker 1>along with some promos for other I Heart shows. So

0:27:55.960 --> 0:27:59.280
<v Speaker 1>Mallard Militia members. Neil rights in don't blame Ben for

0:27:59.359 --> 0:28:04.600
<v Speaker 1>commercial you get. Apparently they are custom made by location.

0:28:05.440 --> 0:28:10.159
<v Speaker 1>Had a chance to hear your show in rainy Galway, Ireland,

0:28:11.240 --> 0:28:13.760
<v Speaker 1>and this is pretty neat Dan. He sent a photo

0:28:13.840 --> 0:28:17.960
<v Speaker 1>here and in the photo he's on a boat and

0:28:18.000 --> 0:28:20.480
<v Speaker 1>he's holding up he's got his phone, he's holding it

0:28:20.600 --> 0:28:25.800
<v Speaker 1>up and you can see the the logo for the

0:28:25.840 --> 0:28:30.679
<v Speaker 1>podcast right there and then behind him to paint the

0:28:30.680 --> 0:28:34.280
<v Speaker 1>picture because it's it's an audio thing here it's not.

0:28:35.160 --> 0:28:37.200
<v Speaker 1>But the faint picture he's on it appears to be

0:28:37.240 --> 0:28:40.120
<v Speaker 1>on a boat, and or maybe he's just on land,

0:28:40.120 --> 0:28:42.040
<v Speaker 1>but he's he's near a body of water, and then

0:28:42.080 --> 0:28:48.520
<v Speaker 1>behind him is a row of houses. So is this pretty? Uh,

0:28:49.240 --> 0:28:52.320
<v Speaker 1>it's pretty neat. It's one place that's on my list

0:28:52.400 --> 0:28:56.520
<v Speaker 1>too to travel to someday. Yeah. I actually wrote back

0:28:56.520 --> 0:28:58.880
<v Speaker 1>to Neil and I said, my my wife's the same way.

0:28:58.880 --> 0:29:01.160
<v Speaker 1>She wants to go to take me to Ireland and

0:29:01.400 --> 0:29:04.440
<v Speaker 1>in that part of the world. And so I wrote

0:29:04.440 --> 0:29:05.840
<v Speaker 1>back and said, Hey, you gotta let me know the

0:29:05.880 --> 0:29:08.240
<v Speaker 1>good places to go and and all that. He says.

0:29:08.280 --> 0:29:10.400
<v Speaker 1>For the question, Neil rights and he says, it's clear

0:29:10.960 --> 0:29:14.240
<v Speaker 1>you are traumatized by calls email from the Fox Sports

0:29:14.320 --> 0:29:17.719
<v Speaker 1>radio bosses. That is true. But have you ever avoided

0:29:17.720 --> 0:29:20.520
<v Speaker 1>a call from the boss and only found out that

0:29:20.560 --> 0:29:24.000
<v Speaker 1>he wanted to give you a huge compliments about your

0:29:24.040 --> 0:29:27.400
<v Speaker 1>monologue that day or any others? It's that like your

0:29:27.440 --> 0:29:32.600
<v Speaker 1>talent or shows. If so. No, I've worked at this

0:29:32.640 --> 0:29:35.280
<v Speaker 1>company for twenty years. I don't think I've ever gotten

0:29:35.360 --> 0:29:39.320
<v Speaker 1>a you're really good call? Uh? And no, no disrespect

0:29:39.320 --> 0:29:41.560
<v Speaker 1>to management or anything like that. I just don't think

0:29:41.680 --> 0:29:44.640
<v Speaker 1>i've maybe have you gotten it, Danny, I've never gotten

0:29:44.640 --> 0:29:46.360
<v Speaker 1>that phone call. I've never got you know, I just

0:29:46.400 --> 0:29:49.040
<v Speaker 1>want to say how good you are. I've never gotten that.

0:29:49.520 --> 0:29:52.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I've gotten calls where there was a compliment

0:29:52.880 --> 0:29:55.800
<v Speaker 1>to start the call, but that's not why the call

0:29:56.000 --> 0:29:58.920
<v Speaker 1>was going on. Well, it's the compliments, sand which all

0:29:59.040 --> 0:30:02.080
<v Speaker 1>bosses do. You are with a compliment, you then get

0:30:02.120 --> 0:30:03.680
<v Speaker 1>to the point you actually want to make, which is

0:30:03.720 --> 0:30:06.800
<v Speaker 1>the person's socks and they're terrible at their job, and

0:30:06.800 --> 0:30:10.520
<v Speaker 1>then you finish with a compliment. Yeah, your show yesterday.

0:30:10.560 --> 0:30:13.680
<v Speaker 1>I was laughing my ass off. And by the way,

0:30:13.800 --> 0:30:17.960
<v Speaker 1>I need you to work on extra seven hours this Saturday. Yes,

0:30:18.080 --> 0:30:22.360
<v Speaker 1>exactly exactly. It's And when I get a call from

0:30:22.400 --> 0:30:25.200
<v Speaker 1>management and it starts with a compliment, I am then

0:30:25.240 --> 0:30:28.240
<v Speaker 1>waiting for the other shooter drop. I'm like, Okay, they

0:30:28.240 --> 0:30:30.720
<v Speaker 1>don't really believe that. What are they really getting at?

0:30:30.760 --> 0:30:33.800
<v Speaker 1>What what is the gist of this phone call here?

0:30:33.960 --> 0:30:35.600
<v Speaker 1>And so I'm waiting for it. I'm waiting for it.

0:30:35.640 --> 0:30:38.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm waiting for it. And the suspense of what they're

0:30:38.640 --> 0:30:44.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna say, Ben sucks. How dare you so? But I'd

0:30:44.280 --> 0:30:45.920
<v Speaker 1>love for them to check in every once in a

0:30:45.960 --> 0:30:48.560
<v Speaker 1>while and say, hey, this is I have heard from

0:30:48.600 --> 0:30:52.600
<v Speaker 1>some people in sales that have had like clients that

0:30:52.640 --> 0:30:55.040
<v Speaker 1>are fans of the show, and they're the funniest thing

0:30:55.040 --> 0:30:58.320
<v Speaker 1>about that, though, Danny is they're always surprised. They're always surprised,

0:30:58.360 --> 0:31:01.040
<v Speaker 1>like you're doing the Overnight Show. I don't understand this.

0:31:01.120 --> 0:31:03.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand why the clarent likes you, but whatever,

0:31:03.200 --> 0:31:06.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's like kind of like that backhanded compliment thing.

0:31:06.200 --> 0:31:09.680
<v Speaker 1>But I digress. A couple of quick ones, Nick and

0:31:09.760 --> 0:31:12.920
<v Speaker 1>Wisconsin says banning Danny g I enjoyed the would you

0:31:13.040 --> 0:31:15.880
<v Speaker 1>rather questions, so I'm going to going back to the well,

0:31:16.200 --> 0:31:20.080
<v Speaker 1>would you rather give up your favorite food forever? Or

0:31:20.200 --> 0:31:26.800
<v Speaker 1>give up sex? That is from from Nick and So.

0:31:26.800 --> 0:31:29.560
<v Speaker 1>So I do love chicken fingers my favorite food, but

0:31:29.640 --> 0:31:31.960
<v Speaker 1>guess what, I also loved Philly cheese steak, and I

0:31:32.000 --> 0:31:34.400
<v Speaker 1>love Chinese food, and I love Mexican food. I love

0:31:34.440 --> 0:31:37.000
<v Speaker 1>crunchy tacos. So I am gonna I'll give up the

0:31:37.080 --> 0:31:39.800
<v Speaker 1>chicken fingers. What about you, Danny g Oh, I'm a

0:31:39.840 --> 0:31:44.080
<v Speaker 1>smoothie drinking pool. At that point, I'll just live on smoothies.

0:31:44.120 --> 0:31:46.600
<v Speaker 1>If you're taking all my favorite foot away. No, no,

0:31:46.640 --> 0:31:50.320
<v Speaker 1>he said, just one. He said your favorite dish. That's it.

0:31:50.400 --> 0:31:53.880
<v Speaker 1>Whatever your favorite. He needs to come correct with those.

0:31:53.880 --> 0:31:57.760
<v Speaker 1>Would you rather that's an easy answer. Yeah, that's a

0:31:57.800 --> 0:32:00.080
<v Speaker 1>no brainer. Come on, you gotta do better, Nick, I

0:32:00.120 --> 0:32:02.959
<v Speaker 1>know you've got more talent in there. Calm down on

0:32:03.000 --> 0:32:08.360
<v Speaker 1>that Sunday morning. All liquid diet or you know, lose

0:32:08.360 --> 0:32:11.680
<v Speaker 1>sex forever. I had a buddy of mine, a radio friend,

0:32:11.720 --> 0:32:14.280
<v Speaker 1>who did a liquid diet years ago, and he lost

0:32:14.320 --> 0:32:16.760
<v Speaker 1>a lot of weight and then he started eating food

0:32:16.760 --> 0:32:19.880
<v Speaker 1>again and gained it all back. So what's the point?

0:32:20.000 --> 0:32:22.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, what's the point? You know, it's because it

0:32:22.360 --> 0:32:25.160
<v Speaker 1>to to maintain you have to continue on the liquid diet.

0:32:25.240 --> 0:32:27.680
<v Speaker 1>I that's what I've heard my friend. That was his experience.

0:32:28.240 --> 0:32:30.680
<v Speaker 1>Daniel Daniel in Ohio. Last one, he says sports are

0:32:30.960 --> 0:32:34.200
<v Speaker 1>never going to go away because I guess the sporting question.

0:32:34.400 --> 0:32:36.800
<v Speaker 1>They're never gonna go away because sports are just games,

0:32:37.240 --> 0:32:40.120
<v Speaker 1>competition and distractions. Well, really, a lot of things in

0:32:40.160 --> 0:32:42.280
<v Speaker 1>life are just distractions. Right. There's a lot of important

0:32:42.320 --> 0:32:45.080
<v Speaker 1>stuff and then everything else is a distraction. But he says,

0:32:45.400 --> 0:32:48.040
<v Speaker 1>but what do you think would need to happen to

0:32:48.120 --> 0:32:51.200
<v Speaker 1>bring our interest or the salaries of players, coaches, et

0:32:51.200 --> 0:32:56.640
<v Speaker 1>cetera back down to reality. That is from Daniel in Ohio. Well,

0:32:57.160 --> 0:33:00.280
<v Speaker 1>I would have said a global pandemic would have on that,

0:33:00.400 --> 0:33:03.640
<v Speaker 1>but we just had one and it didn't do ship

0:33:03.800 --> 0:33:06.120
<v Speaker 1>to the amount of money that people in sports are making.

0:33:06.160 --> 0:33:10.520
<v Speaker 1>So the thing that will kill the golden goose is

0:33:10.600 --> 0:33:14.800
<v Speaker 1>if television no longer pays the bills. Television is the

0:33:14.800 --> 0:33:18.000
<v Speaker 1>sugar daddy. I know it's moving to the Internet. And

0:33:18.280 --> 0:33:22.360
<v Speaker 1>if we get to the point where TV no longer

0:33:22.680 --> 0:33:26.960
<v Speaker 1>can draw the numbers to it's all. It all trickles

0:33:27.000 --> 0:33:30.280
<v Speaker 1>down from television. These sports leagues are just TV networks there.

0:33:30.320 --> 0:33:33.720
<v Speaker 1>They just provide programming to TV networks. So if the

0:33:33.800 --> 0:33:36.680
<v Speaker 1>audience isn't there and they can't monetize it and then

0:33:36.720 --> 0:33:39.720
<v Speaker 1>give the money to the sports leagues, they don't make

0:33:39.840 --> 0:33:44.240
<v Speaker 1>enough to maintain the books, right Danny, with it just

0:33:44.320 --> 0:33:48.360
<v Speaker 1>ticket sales is not enough to pay forty five billion

0:33:48.480 --> 0:33:51.360
<v Speaker 1>dollars to your quarterback or your left field or you're

0:33:51.360 --> 0:33:56.000
<v Speaker 1>starting pitchers. So that's the thing. Outside of that, it's

0:33:56.200 --> 0:34:01.760
<v Speaker 1>essentially bulletproof. But television that's the thing or whatever television

0:34:01.800 --> 0:34:06.200
<v Speaker 1>becomes TV meals yeah, for sure, for sure, all right,

0:34:06.240 --> 0:34:08.640
<v Speaker 1>we'll get out on that. Anything to promote here, Danny,

0:34:08.680 --> 0:34:11.439
<v Speaker 1>anything at all. It is Sunday. I will be back.

0:34:11.520 --> 0:34:13.200
<v Speaker 1>I can tell you. I'll be back in the Magic

0:34:13.320 --> 0:34:17.120
<v Speaker 1>Radio Box God Willing tonight at eleven PM in the

0:34:17.160 --> 0:34:21.080
<v Speaker 1>West after the NFL hopefully after Game seven of the

0:34:21.120 --> 0:34:25.719
<v Speaker 1>World Series. And I'll be on until three am Pacific

0:34:26.040 --> 0:34:29.400

0:34:29.440 --> 0:34:32.080
<v Speaker 1>time where most people live. So I'll be that and

0:34:32.840 --> 0:34:35.760
<v Speaker 1>it's my one day off of the week. So hopefully

0:34:35.800 --> 0:34:39.279
<v Speaker 1>the Raiders can bounce back against the Jags. Maybe their
