So the first letter 37 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: we get is from Pierre from Parts Unknown, formerly in Springfield, 38 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: just down the street from the Pro Basketball of Fame 39 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: where Mufett McGraw resides. But Pierre is in a dust 40 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: up with fur Dog. Pierre says, been with the chatter 41 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: last week that you cut the guest list short for 42 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: the Halloween party. How in the hell did the ungrateful 43 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: elitist make the cut? Let me guess who am I? 44 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: I was Rob Parker's plus one for Mallard's inaugural Halloween party, 45 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: and I can't believe that I flew back here for 46 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: some cold Domino's pizza and Kirkland brand alcohol. Well, that 47 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: sounds like I don't did he post that on social media? 48 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: The man wearing this dress. I I don't know if 49 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: he did or not, but that sounds like something that 50 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: that he would do. Uh, it was clearly an oversight. 51 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: It was a mistake, Pierre. It will not happen again. Wrong, 52 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: it will not happen again. Mr West of the four 53 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: oh five. Well, even if I have to go and 54 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: do the unthinkable and invite Goldilocks, Uh, we're too far? 55 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: Is that too? That's a bridge too far? Danny Daddy, Yeah, 56 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: I can't. Yeah, that's a that's a tough one. Because 57 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: he I don't know, he can't. He can't act on 58 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: his good behavior, So I don't know if I can't 59 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: really invite the guy. All right, come back, pat judge, 60 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: it's from call.

Ozzy was from Western Australia rights 62 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: and he says, good day mate, Big Ben and the 63 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: smooth talking Danny g I gave you a call during 64 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: the week and I played it back for the misses 65 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: from the podcast, and she thought it was really cool, 66 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: but then felt sort of bad for me, as she 67 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: reckons you couldn't quite understand me. So, Ozzy was his question. 68 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: Without trying to be racist, he says, have you ever 69 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: had trouble understanding people from other countries? No, No, Ozzy, 70 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: was I understood you complete? I did. There was a 71 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 1: slight delay at the beginning of the call. So I'm 72 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 1: a schmuck, I'm a I'm a mama Luke. So let 73 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: the mrs know what I was doing with stick a lot, 74 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 1: like any time I see an opportunity. I thought you 75 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: could not hear what we were doing, and so I 76 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: was doing the old hey you want to get on 77 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: the air bit. But you then real eyes that you 78 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: could hear us, and whatever connection issues that we had 79 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 1: went away, and no, I understood. In fact, I told 80 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: my my wife about your call. I said, Hey, the 81 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: guy that got attacked by the kangaroo, Ozzy was I 82 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: I told her that he called the show and she 83 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 1: was like, oh man, she loved the information you gave 84 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: about the kangaroos. I don't know much about kangaroos other 85 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: than I've seen them on a few TV shows and 86 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: movies over the years, but I've never seen one in person. 87 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: And all that. And so Ozzy was said on the 88 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 1: radio show this week Danny that unlike you know how 89 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: deer freezes and the headlights, that phrase deer in the 90 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: headlights because the dear old freeze on a country road 91 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: when they see cars, Well, a kangaroo, according to Ozzy 92 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: was there the opposite. They will run at a light 93 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: like the cars drive by and they run. They run 94 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: after the light. Yeah, not the brightest move. And behind 95 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 1: the car. Well yeah, they're behind it and they're getting 96 00:05:58,480 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: a lot of work out in, you know, getting their 97 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: exercise in. But Ozzy was was listening to our show 98 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: in Australia and his car got destroyed by a kangaroo. 99 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: Kangaroo came over there in Western Australia just ripped the 100 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: car up. So no, I loved your call, as he was, 101 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: I hope it doesn't cost you too much money. I'd 102 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: love to talk to you again. And I'll make sure 103 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: that goes smoother next time. I'm gonna blame the Cooper loop, 104 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: is what I'm gonna do. It's clearly his fault. There 105 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: was a connection issue, and I'm blaming him. I wish 106 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: I could pull off those suits, all right. Next up 107 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: we have Kevin in Kansas. He says, Dear Ben and 108 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: Danny G. I know a guy who has a tattoo 109 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: of a wedding ring on his ring finger. Ben, given 110 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: your lost ring or deal, and Danny G with a 111 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: possible nuptial in the offing, would either of you consider 112 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: this possibility? Alright? So I got a new ring, so 113 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: I'm good on that. And I also got these because 114 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: of our friend in Denver. I got these rubber eysed 115 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: rings that I wear when I go to the beach. Now, 116 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: so my goal is to if as long as I 117 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: remember and remember to change out the ring, I don't 118 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: think I'll worry about losing my wedding ring again, because 119 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: any situation where I may lose the ring, I'll just 120 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: wear one of these sheep you know, rubber rings that 121 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: I got like ten of them for like five bucks 122 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: off Amazon. So there's that. But what about you Dannity, 123 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: you are getting close to the big day. It's coming 124 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: up here before you know it. Well, as you know, Ben, 125 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: I'm against tattoos. Yes, that's your religion. But would you 126 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: have you have you already bought a ring? Ring? Ring? Ring? 127 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: Or yeah? The well my Cleopatra bought me one. That's 128 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: the least she could do. As you know, the girl's 129 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: ring is about four paychecks and the men's ring is 130 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: uh not even not even a quarter of a paycheck. Well, 131 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: why is there such a big difference, by the way, Ben, 132 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: Why is the girl's ring so fancy and so expensive 133 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: and the guy's ring is so drab and cheap? Well, 134 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: it really sexism. And I think women should demand to 135 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: get the same quality ring the men get, as opposed 136 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: to the men demanding the ring the women get. And 137 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: it's a it is one of those things in life. 138 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: So much has changed, but it's one of those things, Danny, 139 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: that's like in his own time warp. And I blame 140 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: the people that run jewelry stores, right, They're the they're 141 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: the ones holding onto this so like no, no, no, 142 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta spend x amount of money. And 143 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: if you don't do that, you're a schmuck, and you're 144 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: a loser and a mom, a luke and and all that. So, yeah, 145 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 1: I do like the one I picked out, But I 146 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: told my TENDERNI I was like, why couldn't yours have 147 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: been this price? This My monthly payment for her ring 148 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: cost more than my ring complete. Yeah, well that's and 149 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,200 Speaker 1: this is a preview of future engagements there, Danny, so 150 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: be prepared.

As far as scared, 169 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: I think any wild animal that's within five ft of 170 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: you or ten ft of you is a scary proposition. 171 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: Like I've heard horror stories about every even for like buffalo. 172 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: I had a buddy of mine was trying to get 173 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: a buffalo, an actual live buffalo, for a radio bit 174 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: that he was doing, and he was told by the 175 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: people that keep the buffalo that they're very angry animals 176 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: and they don't like to be around people. So, which 177 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: is I thought was amusing because doesn't Colorado football and 178 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 1: Boulder don't they have like live buffalo that run out 179 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: in the field and and all that. But anyways, I 180 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 1: guess they were blinders or whatever. So he was he 181 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 1: was telling me that, But uh, scared to see about 182 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 1: like a lion, lion, even an alligator, like a big 183 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 1: eight hundred pound gator, yeah found for a hundred and 184 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 1: fifty years. Yeah, something like that, that would be bad. 185 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: What about you, Danny? Uh, let's see the animal I 186 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 1: would like to beat up. Let's go with a hyena, 187 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: because when we were kids watching The Lion King, remember 188 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: how annoying the hyenas were. I think the hyena was 189 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: what I was thinking of, but I couldn't come up 190 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: with the name. So really, okay, so we agree on that, Yeah, 191 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: because I think we could take a hyena. They're not 192 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: that big, right, we could take down a hyena. Yeah, 193 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: it's like a medium sized animal. We could take that there. Yeah, 194 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: or take them out with bad jokes too. They wouldn't 195 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 1: be laughing at all. Oh, that isn't funny. Yeah. And 196 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: then let's see as far as being scared of an animal, 197 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: I guess a grizzly bear or yeah, like a huge 198 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: grizzly coming after you, because what about a brown bear? Yeah, 199 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 1: not as much as grizzly. I think I saw a 200 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: grizzly standing up because those things are fast and they 201 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 1: could rip you apart. What was that story? If you 202 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: ever do the animal Thunderdome, this could be in this 203 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: in the show. This kind of story. There was a 204 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: grandmother somewhere like in the Philippines or someone that was 205 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 1: eating they found her body in some kind of like 206 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: a not a lizard, but it was like a snake 207 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: or something like a huge python? Right was it a python? Yeah? 208 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: So what a way to go out python food? Poor grandma? 209 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: She I mean, what are we doing here? I mean, like, 210 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 1: how does that happen? Does she falls she's sleeping in 211 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: the python eight? Or while she was sleeping did she 212 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: fall down? Did she know what was happening? Like, there's 213 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: so many questions you want to know about. I love man. 214 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 1: That's one of the reasons I love the Thunderdome because 215 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: you have to do some investigative reporting to find out 216 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: how did this fucking happen? And there's so many questions. Yeah, yeah, 217 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: that would be a good one to get somebody on 218 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: from the local law enforcement or somebody that would have 219 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: inside information. No, I'm moving on. You've got males. We 220 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: do have mail Berry from Nashville Rights and he says, 221 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 1: yo yo mob. Benny Berry says in Gascon, who has 222 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,079 Speaker 1: been gone from the Fifth Hour podcast, we have never 223 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: heard from I'm a Pilot? Is it now given that 224 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: I'm a Pilot? Was really David Gascon? I say yes, well, 225 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: I second that motion by Barry in Nashville, Yo Yo, 226 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: Ma Benny, the man that gave me that name. And yes, 227 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: I'm a pilot. Either is related to gascon or is 228 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: gascon but to completely fall off the face of the earth, 229 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 1: there's god to be talking about investigations. This guy, I'm 230 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 1: a pilot, he emailed us a lot when the podcast started, 231 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: every week for a while. He is a pilot, but 232 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: he flies long international flights. And I can't confirm that 233 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: it is somebody that has access to photos because this 234 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: guy was sending photos from China. He went to China 235 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 1: during COVID and he talked about his experience as he 236 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: went into immediate quarantine and how they he was like 237 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: in prison in a Chinese hotel, and he sent us 238 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 1: photos which I didn't even know you're allowed to take 239 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: in China, and it showed us of his some of 240 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: his conditions and all that. So so it is somebody 241 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: I is gascon per se, but it's probably somebody in 242 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: the gascon clan, is what I will say. Barry from Nashville, 243 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: and then he says free Justin. I don't know what's justin. 244 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: You're talking about wrong. I mean, there's a lot of 245 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: people in life named Justin. So I have no no 246 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: bleeping clue with Justin. You are refrained. It was a 247 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: lot of fun catching up with Gascon at your Halloween party. 248 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: One thing, though, I asked him what happened to his parents, 249 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: because his parents used to email this show all the 250 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: time too. Yeah, and what did he What do you say? 251 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: He's like, I don't know what you're talking about, the 252 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 1: same thing he says about pot Yeah, you know who 253 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: his parents were, right? Oh? Yeah, yeah, yeah, we've had it. 254 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: His dad was his dad was on the poxic Yeah, 255 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: not that dad.

Hold on 260 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: April May, June, somewhere around there. Yes, the last email 261 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: we received from Helen and Stu was in June. Wow, 262 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: good guests. Yeah, it was mid June. So we've been 263 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: through July and August and September pretty much all of October. 264 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: Now this is our last show in October, so four 265 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: months without hearing from Helen and Stu. Maybe they're on 266 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: a flight with I'm a pilot. Yeah, I hope they're 267 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 1: I hope they're okay. I mean, I don't I don't know. 268 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: They were not feeling particularly good. I'm remember the last 269 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 1: time they they emailed, So I don't know what's going on, 270 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: but I have not It's odd that they would just 271 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: disappear for that because emailing every other week. I hope 272 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 1: they're okay, But I I don't know what happened to 273 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: Helen and st Helen and still have you hear this 274 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: reach out to us, let's know you're okay. That's normally 275 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 1: how Maybe I listened to too many crime podcasts, but 276 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: that's normally how people cover their tracks before they disappear. 277 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: I'm not feeling well. Things that make you go yeah, 278 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 1: And I can hear Helen right now saying you are 279 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 1: fake news. I don't know about that. You've got mail, 280 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: al right. Next up, we have mus See or any 281 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: meaning Mighty Mike from Fullerton Rights, in no relation to 282 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: fur Dog. He says, the talk of the town is 283 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: still Ben's monster mash from last weekend, So I have 284 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: a couple of questions about it. In each of your 285 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: opinions of those in attendance. Who had the best costume, 286 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: Who had the worst costume? All right, so we'll start 287 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: with those two. And there's another question here. He says, 288 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 1: who had the most offensive costume? So the best costume? 289 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: I thought your costume was good. I love Bobo on 290 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 1: the radio. I thought he really nailed it as well. 291 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: One of the one of the people from Danny G's 292 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,440 Speaker 1: clan or not not you're not your clan, the uh 293 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 1: Looney clan. Uh, they had a pretty good, pretty good 294 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 1: I mean, there were some decent cons there's a pretty 295 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: good costume section. The worst costume has to be either 296 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 1: Tom Looney, who just wore a witch's hat and regular clothes, 297 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: or with all due respect, Rob Parker who dressed as 298 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: Rob Parker, but as Rob Parker. That's the most authentic 299 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: Rob Parker costume. So if you're dressing as Rob Parker 300 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: and you are Rob Cocker, that can't be the worst costume. 301 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: That's gotta be a pretty good costume. Well, Iowa Sam 302 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 1: needs to be in the running. Oh yeah, he just 303 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 1: wore like a mask. He had a two dollar mask 304 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:53,119 Speaker 1: from CVS Pharmacy. Yeah, well, with the putin price, Iche 305 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 1: it was likely a seventeen dollar mass, but still still 306 00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: not not that good. And as far as offensive, I 307 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: don't know what do you think it was offensive? Any offensiveness. 308 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: I didn't think mine was offensive until I filled in 309 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: on your weekday program Sunday into Monday on the Ben 310 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: Mallor Show. Dog. Yeah yeah, Ferg Dog called up during 311 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: instead Viceline and said that my costume was racist. Yes, 312 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 1: well everything is racist. This podcast is racist. The whole 313 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,439 Speaker 1: thing world is racist.

I 315 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 1: thought your costume was. It was wonderful and it looked good, 316 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 1: and I was I was proud of you because, as 317 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: I told your your lovely TENDERNI.

And I said you could 326 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:10,439 Speaker 1: be one of my house and for some reason she 327 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 1: did not appreciate that. She laughed. She loves Tupacs music, 328 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: so she's like, okay, Mr, I get around all right. 329 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 1: Next up, we have Big Greg from Iowa, he says, 330 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 1: Dear Ben and Danny g Since this will be seen 331 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: after the Halloween party, Ben Jonas wants to know where 332 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 1: his invite was. Well, it was lost in the mail. 333 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: It was lost, and and Jonas and I gotta tell 334 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: you there were guys that well, I wasn't I invite. 335 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 1: Jonas got upset, LaVar Arrington got upset. They were busting 336 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 1: my chops. So what I'm gonna do is, I'm gonna 337 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 1: put these guys on blast. I'm gonna invite all these 338 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 1: people that were complaining they didn't get an invite. Who 339 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: I was polite. I didn't want to have them have 340 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,360 Speaker 1: to not show up and tell me they're not coming 341 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: because they live so far away. But if they want 342 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: to invite, I'll give them an invite. And if we 343 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 1: have a Christmas Ugly Sweater part, I'll invite him and 344 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: we'll see how many of these guys show up we'll 345 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,679 Speaker 1: see who shows up. Jonas complains about driving from his 346 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: place to the studios on Saturday mornings, so I can't 347 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,359 Speaker 1: imagine him driving all the way to where you live. 348 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm wrong, but I think you're right about that. 349 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: I've invited Jonas for years and he never shows up, 350 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 1: and so I was like, all right, I just won't 351 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 1: even it's just a radio bit at this point, Yeah, exactly. 352 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 1: Greg also says, since you were going as Bob Ross, 353 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:31,879 Speaker 1: and one of the miss of Bob Ross is that 354 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 1: his paintings, we were where he hid the bodies, Danny 355 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 1: g and Ben painting the pictures. Uh. And and will 356 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: you will you need to do a head count at 357 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 1: work in the future, uh, He says. So I think 358 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: he's making a dead body joke there. I got a 359 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 1: thing about dead bodies from Big Greg, and I was 360 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: next up Sweet Potato Bob. You know it's big of 361 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: Sweet Potato. Bob's writing in from Cincinnati, Ohio, He says, Ben, 362 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: break this down for me. Why don't this a sport 363 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: o question? He says, why don't all special teams defenses 364 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 1: have a seven footer who jumps up and blocks extra 365 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: points and field goals? I'd pay the guy a million 366 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: dollars just to do that. It's actually not a terrible idea. 367 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: It's not a terrible idea. It sounds like something that 368 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: would have happened in the nineties, seventies or the early eighties, 369 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 1: but not now because there's too many hard oh guys 370 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: in football that don't have any outside the box thinking. 371 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: Like there was a time in the NFL where you'd 372 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: see guys who were tracking field stars who would get 373 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: signed to be wide receivers. You don't see a lot 374 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 1: of that anymore. Occasionally you'll see a college basketball player 375 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 1: become a tight end. The last experiment like this we had, 376 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: remember the the AUSSI rules football player, the Azzy Muffit, 377 00:21:56,080 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 1: the punter for the forty niners today, Mike, Yeah, so 378 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 1: they don't do those kinds, but that would be that 379 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: would definitely be a unique approach. Just have one guy, 380 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 1: but you have specialists. You have a guy that only 381 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: plays only plays as a punter, and a guy that's 382 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: only a kicker. So he'd have to be a fat, 383 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 1: tall guy otherwise he'd get pushed off the line, not 384 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: necessarily if he's if he's a couple of feet behind 385 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 1: the line as in the linebacker position and he jumps off. Yeah, 386 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 1: you'd have to have pretty good hops. Yeah, you can 387 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 1: absolutely pull that off. I think that's a solid idea. 388 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: And by the way, in obvious passing situations, you'd take 389 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: away the middle of the field. You wouldn't be able 390 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: to throw to his side of the field, assuming the 391 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 1: guy has some strength, and you could put him in 392 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: the end zone on a hail Mary. That's right, man, 393 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 1: this is a no brainer. Sweet Potato Bob wins the day. 394 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,120 Speaker 1: You should be running the Bengals front office. Sweet Potato Bob. 395 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: It's bad job by them not hiring you. I got mail, Yeah, 396 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 1: I got mail. Yea, all right. Next up is Mark 397 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 1: from Parts Unknown. Ben, Why do you yell and holler 398 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: way more nowadays? Well, it's a great question, Mark, And 399 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: the reason I've decided to yell and to scream more 400 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: now is I was trying to think of how I 401 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: could annoy you, and I thought, Mark, by yelling occasionally 402 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: and raising my voice, that that would annoy you, and 403 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 1: that would also cause the crowd to go wild. Talk Now, 404 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: I don't really think I'm yelling or hollowing anymore than 405 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: I used to, but maybe I'm wrong. I don't spoiler alert. 406 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: You ever listen back to your own podcasts? No, I don't, don't. 407 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,439 Speaker 1: Don't don't listen to these podcasts? Are you kidding me? 408 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:00,640 Speaker 1: I don't listen to the show the Beast. I don't 409 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: listen to you. I don't listen to me. I don't 410 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: listen to anybody. I don't. Uh man, you only talk 411 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 1: and yo, you never listen. It's talk radio. It's not 412 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 1: listen radio. It is not They don't pass to listen. 413 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 1: They don't. All right, what was that next thing? I know? 414 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: I just saw this white thing flying at my face there, alright. 415 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 1: Next up, we have Noah from Austin, Texas, and I 416 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: want to hip cities these days in the United States, 417 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: He says, Big Ben, what advice would you give someone 418 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 1: who's wanting to start a successful podcast? So don't do it, 419 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 1: Noah from Austin wanting to start a successful podcast. You 420 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 1: can do it, but you gotta have a plan. You 421 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: got you gotta have a plan so that you're an 422 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 1: alarm for three am. Yeah, yeah, exactly exactly. Well, you 423 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: have to find a niche. There's there's a podcast, there's 424 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,160 Speaker 1: seventh Housing podcasts for everything. So you gotta look at 425 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: the podcast market and say, how can I build an audience? 426 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: What is going to be my niche, What is going 427 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 1: to be the thing that makes me stand out? So 428 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 1: you gotta start with the content, and then you gotta 429 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 1: figure out how many days of weeks the podcast can be. 430 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,360 Speaker 1: You know, how many downloads do I have to get 431 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: to before I can can make money? And there's a 432 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 1: lot of things and and I don't want to be 433 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 1: Benny Buzzkill here, but the reality of a podcast game 434 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: is most of the podcast that people listen to are 435 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 1: owned by big media companies, so very few mom and 436 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: pop podcasts have been able to draw a big audience. 437 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 1: That's just the reality. Now. The good news is, if 438 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: you show a little razmatazz on a podcast, one of 439 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: the big podcast companies would likely buy you up and 440 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: then give you a bigger stage, a bigger megaphone to 441 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 1: be heard. It's like, listen, even what we do here, right, Danny, 442 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: we do a big podcast. We have a lot of 443 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,880 Speaker 1: people that love the show, and I've been very lucky. 444 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 1: I've loyal members of the Malla militia that have followed 445 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 1: me from the radio to the podcast, and they support 446 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,640 Speaker 1: what I do, and we do pretty well. But there's 447 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: other podcasts at our company. There's one certain host I 448 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,400 Speaker 1: will not name him, who has his own podcast network 449 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: that destroys the amount of downloads that we get. All right, 450 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: we get a fraction of the amount of downloads that 451 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 1: that guy gets because for for many many reasons. So 452 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,239 Speaker 1: and everyone's fighting the game there. But you can do it. 453 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 1: Don't expect to be an overnight sensation there, noah. It's 454 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 1: gonna take a little time, and you gotta find ways 455 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 1: to market it, come up with giveaways and things to 456 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: double the audience. The cool thing I've learned from my 457 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: years in radio and on the podcast. It's a little 458 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: harder with the podcast game. But in radio there's people 459 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,680 Speaker 1: always trying to find new programming and scanning the radio 460 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: dial old school in the car, and so they'll come 461 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: across you on a late night drive and we're on 462 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: and things like that. And so if you can just 463 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 1: double the audience, easier said than done. If you have 464 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,919 Speaker 1: seven people listening, if they get one more person, that's fourteen. 465 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 1: And then if those other seven people get and you 466 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 1: just keep it keeps morphing like Grimlin's here's a tip 467 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: for him. Even if you have to make monthly payments, 468 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 1: buy some quality equipment. I understand that it's a different 469 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: world nowadays when it comes to audio equipment, but there 470 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: is some equipment that's affordable that actually sounds good. You 471 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: just got to do the research. Yeah, and a little 472 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 1: life hack for you know. Uh. These a lot of 473 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 1: these places on Amazon and other places they sell podcasting 474 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: microphones that you can plug into the back of your computer, 475 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 1: which sounds like a good idea. They're not that expensive, 476 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: but they're my experience, I've tried a few of them. 477 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: Absolute shit. And I mixing. Yeah, Like if you can 478 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 1: get a mixing board and then connect that to the 479 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,639 Speaker 1: back of your computer, that's what I use. I have 480 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: my own set up on the right side. Here I 481 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,199 Speaker 1: have the terrestrial radio equipment on the left, which is 482 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 1: a big box of all these different gadgets and thingam 483 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: the jigs and all that. But on the other side, 484 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 1: I have just a mixer board and a good microphone. 485 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: A good microphone is gonna cost you a couple hundred bucks, 486 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: but it's worth it, and these things last forever. These 487 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,239 Speaker 1: things will survive a nuclear war. These microphones so very 488 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 1: rarely do you have to replace them. They last a 489 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: long time. In fact, at Fox Sports Radio, we're using 490 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 1: the same mics we use when the place opened twenty 491 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: something years ago, twenty two years ago, so we're still 492 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: using the same microphone. Well they bought futuristic equipment back then, Yeah, 493 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: they were. They were planning ahead, like Star Trek. All right. 494 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: Next up Fred from Spring Texas and Fred Rice, and 495 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 1: he says, does Danny g feel destined to work in 496 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: radio because his last name is radio? Is that? Is 497 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,080 Speaker 1: that true? Danny? Is that? I thought your name was 498 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 1: Gara Deli. I was just gonna say radio and more specifically, 499 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: Gradio is a stage name. My real last name on 500 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: my driver's licenses, Gara Deli. So I actually thought I 501 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: was destined to work in the family business. But my 502 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: grandfather told all of us, he said, look, I just 503 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: want you guys to be successful and happy no matter 504 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: what you do, even if you don't want to be 505 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 1: one of America's finest chocolate tears. And we do love chocolate. 506 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: But the press of Coco has gone up, and so yeah, 507 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 1: it's a it's a pricey thing, bunch of hookers, and man, 508 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: you've got mail all right. Daniel in Ohio is next 509 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 1: in the mail bag. He says, do you guys think 510 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: there was an advanced civilization before us? And do you 511 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: think there was life on Mars? And if so, do 512 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 1: you think we are them? These are these are George 513 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: Nori related questions. Is nor is not on the podcast 514 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 1: this week? We can't ask George so to answer this, 515 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: I I I every once in a while, I'll go 516 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: out and do a place outside the city the city 517 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: lights and look up to the heavens and think that 518 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: there's probably thousands of planets just like this one with 519 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: life on it, and there's other planets with life that 520 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 1: we have no idea. So I don't know that there 521 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 1: were their civilizations on this planet before us, but I 522 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: do believe there there are other life forms. I believe 523 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 1: there are UFOs flying around. It's it's stuff that our 524 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:39,239 Speaker 1: human minds cannot grasp the technology because they are more 525 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: advanced than us. And I wouldn't be shocked if there 526 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: was life on Mars in the past. And there's a 527 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: lot of stuff that certain people know but they don't 528 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 1: want to share with the masses. And they're starting to 529 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 1: open that up a little bit. In recent years, they're 530 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: now admitting there's a bunch of UFOs that they have 531 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: no idea what the funk these things are, and they're 532 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 1: flying around military bases and whatnot. And so I absolutely 533 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 1: believe there's a bunch of stuff that has kind of 534 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: been around the planet from other worlds and whatnot. And 535 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: and uh, eventually we won't be around, but there'll be 536 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: people in future generations that will well take the human 537 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 1: human beings out to the cost. So what about you, Danny, 538 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: any thoughts on whether or not there was an advanced 539 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: civilization before us, or life on Mars or any of that. No, 540 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: it sounds like you could bullshit your way through sitting 541 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 1: in for George Nori. I could never fill in for him. No, 542 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: I would love to feel in. I would think that 543 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: would be awesome. I we should have and I know 544 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: the company won't do this because I'm a pimple on 545 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 1: an elefense asked, But I'd love for George Nori to 546 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 1: host the show. Yeah, and then we maybe on April 547 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 1: Fool's Day, like, We'll have George do the Ben Mallor 548 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 1: Show and I'll do the Coast to Coast And I'd 549 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: love to do a Mallar monologue. Um, and I could. 550 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: I could do it about the shadow people. It would 551 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: be like Switzer Rude Day at school where the cafeteria 552 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: lady gets to be the principal for the day and 553 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: the principles in the cafeterias serving food all day be awesome, man, 554 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 1: I would be all about I love the opportunity to 555 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: coast to coast.

When we were kids, Danny, 577 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 1: we saw this a lot, right, You try to pun 578 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 1: it with inside the ten yard line out of bounds? 579 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 1: Why why don't we We don't see that anymore. Yeah, 580 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: that's a good question. You think that would be something 581 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: that is very effective and you don't have to worry 582 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 1: about a routine. You can box the people in. It's 583 00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 1: it's it's odd that that has left the game of football. 584 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 1: Did they changed the rule or something that if the 585 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 1: punt goes out of bounds, it's it goes to the 586 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 1: thirty five yard line or something like that. Yeah, I don't. 587 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 1: I don't think so either. All right, our NFL rule book.
