19
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 1: David gascon Well, I got h I got booted from

20
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: a from a workout studio a few days ago for

21
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: that exact reason. They COVID protocol. Well they yeah, so

22
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,399
Speaker 1: they said we need you to wear a mask. Well

23
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 1: I didn't get booted. I just didn't go in. But

24
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: they basically said, you need to be wearing a mask

25
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: and you need to bring proof of vaccination in order

26
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 1: to come into the to the facility. And so I said,

27
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 1: well why is that. Obviously I was playing dumb because

28
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: I knew the mandate from from our king, and they

29
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,839
Speaker 1: told me exactly what it was. And uh, I said,

30
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: I need a refund. I will not be visiting your establishment.

31
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: I do not agree with these, uh the statewide mandates

32
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: and imposing those fines on individual companies that that ignore it.

33
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: So I said, peace out, give me my money back,

34
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: and that's exactly what I did. I took my ball

35
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: and I went home. Good good for you. Uh yeah,

36
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: I have not been attending as many sporting events. You know.

37
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 1: I have access to a lot of games. I've been

38
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: to a few NFL games, been to the Dodger playoff games,

39
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: but I have not been to any NBA or hockey games.

40
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: And part of it is the mask bullshit, which if

41
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: I'm sitting by myself and no one's around me. Why

42
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: am I gonna wear Why do I have to wear

43
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 1: a mask? Most most ridiculous thing in the world. And

44
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: uh so I've been been not as active as I

45
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: usually would be at this point. I've already and I've

46
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: I've avoided that, that scene and all that. But when

47
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: will it end? That's the question. Is it gonna be

48
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: in January February two? I don't know if it will.

49
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any there's no need for it

50
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,519
Speaker 1: to end, right, I mean you have probably it has

51
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: ended elsewhere, but yeah, just on the coast or the

52
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 1: northeast and the West coast, it hasn't. It hasn't slowed

53
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 1: down at all. But I told you the story when

54
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: the Dodgers were playing the Atlanta Braves in the National

55
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 1: Championship Series. The the Atlanta Brave beat writers like they

56
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: were they from Georgia. They're not wearing any stupid man

57
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: like screw you. And you got like the l A writer,

58
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: the l A writers that are like double masked and

59
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 1: had their hoodies on, and you know, super scared about

60
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: what was going on making you mentioned you mentioned bumping

61
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: our gums. When I was a kid, I love the

62
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: double dipping. I don't know if you did this, but

63
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: I would buy a pack of Strawberry and a pack

64
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: of Great Big League Chew and I'd mix it after

65
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: during every game, I'd I'd be double did them with

66
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: a Big League Chew. That was my favorite brand of

67
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: bubble gum back in the day as a kid. It was.

68
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 1: It was great. It's like it's like eating filame and

69
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: yon and then eating a burger, like when you compared

70
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: to eating gum out of a baseball pack. You know,

71
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: the stick of gum that was just stale. Yeah, yeah,

72
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: Big League to what a great concept to teach children

73
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 1: in retrospect, in hindsight, right, to teach kids how to

74
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: stick a wad of chewing tobacco in their mouth because

75
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: they're not old enough for chewing tobacco. So it's like

76
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: a starter set, right. It's like it's like, well, let's

77
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 1: pretend that you are your favorite baseball player, because growing

78
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 1: up for young punks like watching this Weekend Baseball and

79
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,599

83
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: Lenny didn't let me lose all his teeth. I think

84
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: that might be from other things, but yeah, but yeah,

85
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 1: that the big league chew was awesome and you felt

86

Speaker 1: like you were in the big leagues. You're you're here

109
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 1: I had no idea how and healthy and dangerous that was. Yeah.

Speaker 1: they got rid of it minor league baseball. They outlawed

121

124
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,920

00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: his stomach and threw up. And then on my mom's side,

144
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 1: my mom and her twin sister. I guess they tried

145
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: smoking when they were teenagers, and my grandfather did what

146
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: I think a lot of older parents did, was not

147
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: he didn't say, don't do it. He just basically fed

148
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: them more cigarettes to smoke him all at the same

149
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: time until they got sick. And they're like, we're never

150
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: doing this again, and that that did the trick. Wow,

151
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 1: Well that that's great. That's the the chocolate chip cookie

152
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: thing right there. They are you allowed to do that

153
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 1: anymore though? Or you're as an animal and that's my

154
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: that's my truth, that you're a you're a horrible person,

155
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 1: you know, and all that stuff. Um, yeah, because they

156
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: say if a kid like you know, it loves you know,

157
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: it's kind of goes into the cookie jar. You see

158
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 1: him in a room with like seven boxes of cookies,

159
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: and you're like, all right, eat up, and you know,

160
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: eat all the cookies, you know, and all that, and

161
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: don't leave the room until you eat all the cookies

162
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 1: and then you'll never want to eat a cookie again. Yeah.

163
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: I always say that the night after I have tequila

164
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,319
Speaker 1: and for some reason I go back to the well yeah,

165
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: well that's like the same concept with me when I

166
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: eat ice cream too fast and I get the brain

167
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: freeze and then I'm like, oh shoot, I hate this.

168
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 1: I'm never eating ice cream again. And then two seconds

169
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,959
Speaker 1: later you're taking another bite. Go to the same contime,

170
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,079
Speaker 1: you go to seven eleven, you get like a slurpee.

171
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 1: You know, it's so good. And then my bride, my bride,

172
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 1: my bride. You're like, okay, all right, as soon as

173
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 1: it goes away, all right, here we go. I am back.

174
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 1: I'm going I'm going to the bank account one more time.

175
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: I'm going back there. I've got my broomstick. I'm gonna

176
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna knock away the coldness. And you're in denial anyway,

177
00:09:51,520 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 1: all right, we have amazing, amazing, wonderful, powerful questions from listeners.

178
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 1: Is the actual mail bag sent in via Ben Maller

179
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 1: Show on Facebook. That's our Facebook show page for the

180
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:12,079
Speaker 1: radio show Ben Maller Show, and a lot of questions

181
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: on the email Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com,

182
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 1: Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com. It's at the

183
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,079
Speaker 1: legit email address. Because you have like fifty Gmail accounts,

184
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: now I do. I have a lot of Gmail accounts.

185
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: I have many Gmail accounts. And the reason I have

186
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: a lot of Gmail accounts is because they limit the

187
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 1: amount of space and they want you to pay for

188
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,719
Speaker 1: the space. So I just said, you know what, I

189
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 1: can have as mainly many Gmail accounts as I can.

190
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,839
Speaker 1: So I just keep adding new Gmail. I think I'm

191
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: up to seven or eight not kidding, seven or eight

192
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: Gmail accounts, I believe it. I have like a catalog

193
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 1: every time I just put the letter b e N.

194
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 1: All of a sudden just populates all your damn email

195
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 1: addresses onto my Gmail Account's ridiculous. Yeah, well, listen, Google

196
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 1: could give you some legitimate space there for free. And

197
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 1: I mean they steal all my information and anyway, so

198
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 1: they just give They choose not to do that. That's

199
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: their decision, which is fine. But I'm looking at my

200
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: email let me see you. I'm looking at the number

201
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: of emails I have. I have the Ben Maller Show account,

202
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 1: which I use for obviously the radio show. I have

203
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 1: a special email account that I use for the videos

204
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 1: that we do on YouTube for the show. I have

205
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 1: the Real Fifth Hour account. I have a podcast account

206
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: which I started for this podcast, and I also started

207
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: a Benny versus the Penny account so I can only

208
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 1: have six, but I will be adding more. I will

209
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: be adding more. What email did you use when you

210

Speaker 1: met your wife on the online dating app? Oh? That

211
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: was like a Yahoo? I think Yahoo. So do you

218
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:16,560

219
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,719
Speaker 1: search engine Bing, and I'll tell you why, because they

220
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: track everything, but they give you points. I search a

221
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 1: lot on the internet. I'm a big searcher, right, So

222
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 1: I search a lot and they give you these points

223
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 1: you can cash in for gift cards. So and I

224
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: never I never actually cash them in, but just by

225
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 1: doing my job searching the internet for you know, things

226
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: that I'm looking to talk about and whatever, maybe the

227
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: definition of words or whatnot. I have when I want

228
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: at my disposal three dollars in Amazon gift cards that

229
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: I have waiting for me that I could use at

230
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: any time. And I'm just waiting, waiting I want to

231
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: see how high I can get it. I actually have

232
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: cashed out. I think I've cashed out about fifty bucks

233
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: in in gift cards early on. But I don't even

234
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: I don't even think about it. I just keep going

235
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 1: over and over and over again, and uh yes, so

236
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 1: that's my that's my thing. Anywa, let's get to the

237
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: questions here, and Kevin and Kansas in the leadoff position.

238
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 1: Kevin says, dear great ones, Ben and David, it's that

239
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 1: time of the school year again where the weather changes

240
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: and the cold and sore throat season is upon us.

241
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,959
Speaker 1: He says, Ben, would you please repeat the garlic clove

242
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: prescription and what are any side effects? There? You go,

243
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 1: all right, I can do that briefly. So the garlic therapy, now,

244
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: there's a couple of ways to approach it. Garlic is

245
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: a natural antibiotic. It is the original old world medicine

246
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 1: before modern medicine. And uh it's seriously, it's got the

247
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: same compounds known in uh in antibiotics are in garlic

248
00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: natural antibiotic they called garlic. Now, first sore throat, which

249
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,680
Speaker 1: is normally for most people, the first sign of an illness,

250
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: and you should not take this as medical advice. This

251
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 1: is just merely a guy in a podcast telling you

252
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: what I do. So, you take a clove of garlic,

253
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 1: you slice it in half. You put one half of

254
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: that clove of garlic on the right side of your mouth,

255
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: you put one half on the left. You then suck

256
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: the garlic juices like it was a hard candy, like

257
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: a Jolly Roger candy. You do this before bed, and

258
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: you don't obviously eat anything after that or drink anything.

259
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 1: You do this before bed. The garlic healing powers while

260
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 1: you are sleeping will attack the infection in your your

261
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 1: sore throat. And generally speaking, if you catch this early enough,

262
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: the success rate is tremendous. Of nipping a cold in

263
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: the butt. Now, if you're already sick, if you've you've

264
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 1: missed this opportunity. The other thing that you can do,

265
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 1: which is much more painful, uh is to take a

266
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: clove of garlic, and even a couple of clothes of

267
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 1: garlics as much as you can handle, and on an

268
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: empty stomach, eat one to two cloves of garlic. You know,

269
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 1: the heads of garlic, not the head to clove on

270
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: an empty stomach, and the side effects of that, Kevin Are,

271
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: you will feel horrible. It is very hard to swallow

272
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 1: raw garlic. It is very difficult to swallow raw garlic.

273
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 1: It is horrible. You will think that you're going to die. Uh,

274
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: it'll burn your throat, it'll it'll feel really bad and

275
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 1: you'll feel bad for maybe ten minutes or so, and

276
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: then you'll drink some water. You'll get over it. And

277
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: usually within a day or so, after using the raw

278
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: garlic on an empty stomach, not eating for many hours,

279
00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 1: you will end up the guard are like, well, we'll

280
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: knock out the infection and you'll you'll feel great within

281
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: within in a day. That's usually how that has worked

282
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: for me. But the side effects on no one want

283
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: to kiss you. Uh, No one wonn't want to be

284
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 1: around you. But most people hate the smell of garlic.

285
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: I like the smell of garlic, so it wouldn't bother me,

286
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: but most people hate it. And so those are the

287
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: side effects. And and the burning of your gums. I

288
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 1: mean again, the garlic is so pungent, it's so powerful

289
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: that when you suck on it like a candy, it's

290
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 1: burning your gums. So that's a sign that it's going

291
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 1: to perfection out. I got enough detailed guess going on

292
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: the garlic therapy, I think, I mean it was a

293
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: perfect transition from talking about chewing tobacco. Yeah, yeah, exactly

294
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 1: exactly Carlos, who says the depressed stro fan in Houston, Texas,

295
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: Bang Bang. Last week, you and Cooper we're talking about edibles,

296
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: and Coop said that edibles are way stronger than weed,

297
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 1: and I can confirm that that is true. I just

298
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 1: want to say that it's your fault, he said, Carlos,

299
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 1: your fault that my high was ruined. Carlos says, I

300
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: got so high that day. How high was he? He

301
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 1: says Guescon that he forgot to run an import and

302
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 1: errand and he kept replaying in his head the public

303
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 1: service announcement that we do on the show Drive High

304
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: get a d u I. He says, I almost went

305
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,399
Speaker 1: into a panic attack because because of that, and my

306
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:41,360
Speaker 1: wife couldn't stop laughing at me. So thank you for

307
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: getting me into an almost panic attack, says Gascon. When

308
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 1: will you be filling in on the overnight show so

309
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 1: you can claim your Benny Award for filling of the

310
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 1: year man, Carlos, I did that earlier this year. Didn't

311
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: get any award for that last year. Unfortunate. Really it's

312
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 1: very competitive that Jonas is out of the running now,

313
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 1: so you don't have to worry about Jonas. Jonas is

314
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: no longer eligible for filling of the year on the show,

315
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,160
Speaker 1: so right now, Danny g who else has been on

316
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: their wreck it? Ralph made an appearance locally docally do

317
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:24,919
Speaker 1: ned Flanders made an appearance. Uh, tryna think who else are? Ilo?

318
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 1: Ilo was on there. He did a good job back

319
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 1: in the day. But I love the fact, Carlos that

320
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 1: that p S A resonated with you. That's good. It's good.

321
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,679
Speaker 1: That should have let the people that buy the the

322
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 1: p S a time. The government should know that that's

323
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,919
Speaker 1: actually worked. The only one that stuck out to me

324
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:48,439
Speaker 1: was the Cougar Love one. The cougars are coming, The

325
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 1: cougars are coming. The cougars are coming. Cougar Uh, I

326
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: think it was it was it Cougar Life? Was that

327
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 1: it or something like that? And it was it was awesome,

328
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:04,160
Speaker 1: great advertising. Uh. Dr abdul Kader writes, and he says,

329
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,960
Speaker 1: I have been an on and off listener to the

330
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 1: Mallard Radio show via podcast Living in the East makes

331
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 1: listening live not quite healthy, The doctor says, let me

332
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: cut to the shase. I discovered the Fifth Hour podcast

333
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 1: just last week. How about that the doc found us

334
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:25,399
Speaker 1: last week. Thank you for ben this morning's episodes, he

335
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 1: he emailed me right after the episode. The episode with

336
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:33,200
Speaker 1: David Gascon tickled me a lot, he said, because you, guys,

337
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 1: delved into the insane times we live in. It appears

338
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 1: that most people blind blindly bought into several agenda driven

339
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:47,920
Speaker 1: studies which masquerade as scientific findings, says the COVID nineteen

340
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 1: Shenanigans and Wokerism. So he says wokers, and I say

341
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 1: the wocarate wocarate in the media, and he says cyber

342
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:02,199
Speaker 1: thugs act as the smelling salts to aken some of us. Uh.

343
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 1: Is a great job, guys, So the doc a new

344
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,879
Speaker 1: fan of the Fifth Hour Podcast and we are here

345
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 1: for you all weekend long Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I

346
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: think there's a little bit of guilt when it comes

347
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: to the sensory overlord from overload with what we get

348
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: And don't you feel like that way in the sports world,

349
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 1: like there's just so much content out there, at least

350
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: during the NFL season, when it's Major League Baseball, the Dodges,

351
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: some of there's nothing to chew on, But in the

352
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: following in the winter, there's a lot of informations. I

353
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 1: feel like we get that with this topic with COVID. Yeah,

354
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: science and yeah. Well, the biggest problem is that people

355
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: put too much stock in social media. That's the biggest problem.

356
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 1: And we pointed out before it's one to two percent

357
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 1: of the general population the United States is contributing content

358
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: and most are not, and most aren't even on there.

359
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 1: So but media companies and even political figures, now, uh,

360
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: that's the almighty all powerful, that's the public square for

361
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: deciding what stuff is that, but it it leans politically

362
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 1: one direction. It also is much younger than the people

363
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:24,399
Speaker 1: actually are on there, and it's easily distorted. As I

364
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 1: like to say, it's like the matrix, right, you don't

365
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,879
Speaker 1: know it's real, what's fake. You don't know what's bots,

366
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 1: what's not there are what was that thing on on

367
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 1: Instagram that there are so many body accounts on Like,

368
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: there's so many people that have a million followers or

369
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 1: whatever on Instagram. I remember reading this, I forget the

370
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 1: exact number. So I'm talking out of my ask right now.

371
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 1: But there's so many people that have a million followers

372
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: on Instagram because they bought followers. It's like more than

373
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,639
Speaker 1: are actually on the more than the real legitimate users

374
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,119
Speaker 1: Instagram has. But they don't get rid of those bots

375
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,959
Speaker 1: because people use the website. So they don't care if

376
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: you've got fake followers or not. It doesn't matter. And

377
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 1: Twitter talks. Twitter talks a good game about that, but

378
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: they don't really care about it either. They don't clean

379
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 1: it up. You know, how how many of Lebron James

380
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 1: followers are legit and how many of the what he

381
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 1: got twenty million followers or something, and how many of

382
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 1: those are just bodycounts. I have no idea. I'm sure

383
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: it's not it's not legit. I know that it's probably not,

384
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 1: you know, real or fake. You know, it's somewhere in

385
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 1: the middle. Anyway, A Cliff from Nashville writes in He says, Ben,

386
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 1: just to prove we were at the resort, this guy

387
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 1: an email member, He said he was at the resort

388
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 1: and he he had the the gangster guy that was

389
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: going to give him a hard time and all that,

390
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 1: and they pondered over the show. He sent me here.

391
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 1: He says. The tattooed, cheating astro fan was there celebrating

392
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:57,200
Speaker 1: his daughter's fifteen birthday sause apparently it's a huge deal

393
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 1: for young Catholic girls, cost as much as a wedding.

394
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: He said, all right, you know anything about this gas gun?

395
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 1: Is it Catholic or is it in the Hispanic community?

396
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not sure. The fifteen year old

397
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:24,119
Speaker 1: birthday party for a for a lady? Oh yeah, I

398

Speaker 1: think that's yes, yes, incinera Is that what they call it?

399
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: All right in Latin America? Right? Yeah? All right, yeah,

400
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 1: like the you know us, the Jews, we have the

401
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 1: bar mits or box and so in Latin America they

402
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,199
Speaker 1: have this when you're fifteen. Is it the same for

403
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,119
Speaker 1: dudes or is it just it's just for girls? Right?

408
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 1: Well we're a moth. We're a mix though, we're a

409
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: pretty big mixes. The key to a mixes to celebrate

410

Speaker 1: the big events in that to go crazy. Man. We

412
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 1: grandmother or her sister's place, and I was always watching

418

Speaker 1: was always the greatest. Always got the fattest on Passover

419
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,399
Speaker 1: because my mom iss she rested peace. To compensate for

420
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: the lack of bread, she bought every they sell these

421
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,640
Speaker 1: brownie mixes and cookie mixes and ship like this that

422
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 1: that was unleavened, you know, so you can make it past.

423
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 1: My mom would spend you know, three three days baking brownies, cakes, uh, cookies,

424
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:14,239
Speaker 1: and I'm a fat kid. I love I just ate

425
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 1: all of it. I was like, this is the greatest.

426
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 1: I can't eat bread, but I can eat endless brownies

427
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:21,680
Speaker 1: and cookies. And now would you would would you would

428
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 1: you dunk in milk or do you get them dry?

429
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 1: You know, I had a bad experience with milk. I

430
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 1: combined milk with a tuna fish sandwich when I was

431
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 1: a kid. I ever since then, I've avoided the milk.

432
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,920
Speaker 1: It was like a neutron bomb. It was a chemical

433
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 1: reaction to my stomach. And I've I've avoided that. Uh,

434
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,919
Speaker 1: let's see here. Rich writes in, says home of the

435
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 1: Baseball Bat and Louisville. He says, is it fuzzy Komoto

436
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 1: or fudgy Komoto? I've heard it both ways. I've heard

437
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: it both ways. Rich. Now I've actually I don't even

438
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:01,200
Speaker 1: know for sure. I think it's fudgy. I hear fuzzy though,

439
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: and I'm wearing headphones. He's referring gascon to a guy

440
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: that calls the Instant Advice line every week from Boston,

441
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: and he's got this cartoon voice, and he said, I'm

442
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 1: funny to Comoto, and but sometimes it sounds like fuzzy Comoto.

443
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: So I'm not sure. Valls Fan Jimmy writes in from Fayetteville, Tennessee.

444
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: He says, Man, how much preparation goes into the overnight

445
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:32,159
Speaker 1: show each night, staff meetings and material models. Well that's

446
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,919
Speaker 1: a good line, right. You know how this show works, Jimmy.

447
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 1: We have a we have a morning production call Gaston,

448
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 1: we get together, we go over some of the big

449
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,400
Speaker 1: stories of today. Uh. Then we have a dry run,

450
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 1: we go over the show. We do a reading, like

451
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,120
Speaker 1: a table reading of the show. That's usually about five

452
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: o'clock in the afternoon. We do a table reading. Uh.

453
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:56,159
Speaker 1: Then Cooper Loop is busy booking guests and uh, you know,

454
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,399
Speaker 1: lining up sound for the show and uh so he

455
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 1: does all that and uh and then I, of course

456
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 1: I roll in at one minute before the show, no prep.

457
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 1: Coop hands me notes for the monologue. Coop hands me

458
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,440
Speaker 1: all of the work. I do no prep at all

459
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 1: during the day, and uh and then whatever Coop comes

460
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 1: up with or the producer, I just repeat that verbatim.

461
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 1: That's exactly what happens in a parallel dimension, guestcon That's

462
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 1: exactly what happens. That you just roll in there one

463
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:26,919
Speaker 1: minute before the show. Producer does all the work, You

464
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 1: do the dry run, you do the the meeting, the

465
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,119
Speaker 1: text chain, all that, and then the show goes on.

466
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 1: Could you imagine if that actually happened, would you feel uncomfortable?

467
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 1: Like would you feel awkward to be involved in something

468
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,439
Speaker 1: like that? I would feel like Jim Rome, No, I

469
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 1: uh that's a low blow. No, I like having having

470
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,439
Speaker 1: my hand in the preparation process. I don't know that

471
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,640
Speaker 1: I want to have my hand in the preparation process

472
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 1: forever as much as I do, But yeah, I actually

473
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:01,720
Speaker 1: enjoy that's that's all. The hardest part of my day

474
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 1: is trying to find find things that are interesting that

475
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 1: it would be a good talk radio There's stories that

476
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 1: are good sports stories, but they're not good radio stories.

477
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 1: And for me, there's that Sweet Spot scandal, love It Check,

478
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 1: all Over scandal, anything involving palace, intrigue, um team coming

479
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 1: apart of the seams. Those stories are always really good

480
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: finger pointing that type of stuff. Injuries, how teams will

481
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: do after key injuries happen, that's always great. Players, any

482
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 1: kind of changing of rosters, like the Odell Beckham story

483
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: that had a little bit of everything to it. Those

484
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: stories are good talk radio. But like some some guys

485
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 1: really forced the issue and they do topics that I

486
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: shake my head at, Like we really only breakdown games now.

487
00:28:55,480 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 1: Playoff games or primetime games will talk about, but baseball

488
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: playoff games will break down. We don't break down regular

489
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 1: season baseball games anymore. We don't we we've cracked the code.

490
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to hear that. So there's always a good

491
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 1: one off, though, like a Blake Snell and his my

492
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: life's on the line and you know crap like that,

493
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: I'm risking my life. But that's not a game story.

494
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 1: That's Blake Snell on on Twitch playing Video Games that

495
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: that was a mouth watering story. That was a great

496
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 1: The Ben Simmons stuff is pretty good too, Yeah, but

497
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 1: that's also not really on the court. That's like off

498
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: the court. Yeah, buddy of mine does a morning show

499
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 1: back East, and he texts me says, when's the last

500
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 1: time we did a whole show just talking about stuff

501
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: that actually happened in games? Said, you know what, I

502
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 1: can't remember the last time I've done that. Maybe Super

503
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 1: Bowl Sunday, But even Super Bowl Sundays a lot of

504
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: drama behind the scenes on what's gonna happen after the

505
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 1: Super Bowl or somebody said something after the game and

506
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 1: got themselves in trouble. Some scattered brain players had something,

507
00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 1: stupider coach that kind of stuff. All Right, I'm moving

508
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 1: on VA Heat from New Orleans. The Big Easy the

509

512
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: And what was the experience like? Well, he wants to

513
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 1: know about our wet dreams. Uh. Not talking about Doc

516
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 1: on podcast. Well, God love you heat, thank you for that.

517
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 1: In New Orleans, should go down to No, that's a city.

518
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 1: My wife wants to go to this other place. So

519
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 1: I haven't traveled much lately because of the COVID stuff,

520
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 1: but I New Orleans. She she really wants to go there.

521
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: I've heard good things, and I've never been to New Ones.

522
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 1: Every good things and bad things. I've heard it's disgusting, dirty,

523
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:54,959
Speaker 1: old lot of traffic, terrible. I've heard it's amazing, the

524
00:30:55,040 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 1: party never ends. It's wonderful. The people are nice, southern charm.

525
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: So I've heard two different versions of New Orleans, and

526
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: it's possible that both of them are true. Yeah, it's

527
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 1: possible that both of them are true. So, but as

528
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,479
Speaker 1: far as wet dreams, I don't know what year it was.

529
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,880
Speaker 1: I I remember though, when some of that stuff started,

530
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 1: I was very confused because I I grew up with

531
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 1: parents that did not exactly teach me the birds and

532
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:22,479
Speaker 1: the beast. They assumed that I would learn that at school.

533
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't remember when. As far as wedding

534
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 1: the bed, I think I last wedded the bed back

535

536
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: nothing I needed to share that would be enticed into

537
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: the ears of those listening in to the mass audience. No,

538
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 1: what the hell? Random question to ask? It is a

539
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 1: random question, but he was looking for a question. He

540
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 1: just wanted to hear his name. So but her Pierre

544
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 1: future podcast recordings from the two of you live on

545

546
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:15,600

550
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 1: about that. Have you circumvented the normal channel of communications

551
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: here Gascony. You've been talking a lot about moving, but

552
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 1: you haven't pulled the trigger here, not a lot of it.

553
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 1: There's a lot of inventory, and so I'm looking more

554
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 1: and more. The biggest thing that I've been looking at

555
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 1: in some of the areas that I've been inquired about

556
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 1: is the awfully egregious rates when it comes to h

557
00:32:55,520 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: o A s h A. Fees are just awful. No, no,

558
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 1: do not, do not do h o A. You're better

559
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 1: off renting a room in a house or something, or

560
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 1: renting the house. I will never again the rest of

561
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 1: my life, I will gear in t that I will

562
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: never make a deal with Frankenstein's monsters. Those h o

563
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 1: A they never they never go down, They only go up.

564
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 1: And it's like you buy. I bought a condo, the

565
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 1: Mallard Mansion in Lincoln Heights, near downtown l A near

566
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 1: Dodger State Room, and the h o A. When I

567
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 1: bought it, you know, it was reasonable. It was, you know,

568
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: a couple hundred bucks. It's gone up. I think it's

569
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 1: fifty higher than when I bought it. Yeah, it's because

570
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 1: the building gets tagged with graffiti all the time because

571
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 1: those guys from the Avenue gangs because it's the Lincoln

572
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 1: Heights and so they tagged the building endlessly. It's like

573
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 1: a billboard for the fucker's and so they end up

574
00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 1: having to spend all this money and they have to

575
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 1: have somebody on call. They have a secure already, you know,

576
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:02,479
Speaker 1: they haven't have a security guard because it's in a

577
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 1: ship neighborhood and so that's all covered in the h

578
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 1: o A. But it's it's ridiculous how and I'm still

579
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 1: paying for it because it's under water. But I'll never

580
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 1: do that again. My brother lives in Manhattan, and you

581
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 1: imagine the h o A is there and those are

582
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:20,919
Speaker 1: co ops and so I think the co ops pay.

583
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,319
Speaker 1: You pay a lot more in fees for that. He's

584
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 1: getting clobbered. And it's like, I understand where the house.

585
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: You still you always have to pay property taxes, which

586
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,759
Speaker 1: is like paying rent anyway, right, you have to pay

587
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 1: property taxes. But it's like double jeopardy to me in

588
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: my head with buying a condo and then you're not

589
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: you still have to play property tax. It's not like

590
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:45,719
Speaker 1: you don't have to pay property tax. You still got

591
00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:47,319
Speaker 1: to pay that, and then on top of it, you

592
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 1: have to pay for everything else, like the to me,

593
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 1: the property taxes cover should cover the garbage. You know

594
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 1: what I'm saying that that stuff covering them in the

595
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: property taxes, but you end up having to pay twice.

596
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 1: And I think I'm gonna that's a good idea to

597
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 1: go shoot a note too. I'm a pilot and see

598
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 1: if I can move out to his neck of the woods.

599
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:09,200
Speaker 1: You're gonna go to Texas? You know, I think you

600
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 1: chased away. I'm a pilot. We've not got any email correspondence.

601
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 1: You have been successful at chasing away that nice couple

602
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 1: in Florida, the very nice couple in Florida. I think

603
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:24,719
Speaker 1: they're underwater literally speaking wow. Well. I actually emailed them saying, hey,

604
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 1: you know what's going on? Just check like a wellness check.

605
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:31,399
Speaker 1: They didn't right back, wellness check, Yeah, I do wellness checks.

606
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,280
Speaker 1: I'm a good guy, guess scan. I I'm concerned about

607
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 1: these people when they stopped when they're part of the show,

608
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 1: and they're they're not part of the show. We had

609
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,719
Speaker 1: a very interesting phone call the other night from beer

610
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: drinking Brian No. No, he was a little inebriated, not

611
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:51,399
Speaker 1: much by his standards, but he was complaining. He said

612
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:52,919
Speaker 1: he's gonna have to go back to the hospital because

613
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: he was urinating blood. Yeah. I said, well, why don't

614
00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:58,800
Speaker 1: you hang up right now and go to the hospital,

615
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 1: calling Amiens. He said no because he wanted he was

616
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,359
Speaker 1: too cold in Missouri and he wanted to wait till

617
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 1: the morning. And I it's like, you know, normally my

618
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 1: experience is if you're bleeding blood, that's your body telling

619
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:16,400
Speaker 1: you a dummy, get to the doctor. I get to

620
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 1: a doctor and all that. And anyway, he uh, he

621
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 1: didn't do that. And then he wanted to talk about

622
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:25,760
Speaker 1: the Vikings and fire Mike Zimmers. So it was very odd.

623
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 1: Why who's pissing blood? I wanted to complain about Mike

624
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:34,280
Speaker 1: Mike Zimmer. So anyway, that was that was bizarre. Alright.

625
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 1: What was next year? Page down? Page down? Neil from

626
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: the Real Miami question for you too? He says, have

627
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 1: you ever meet? He says, you, two dukes, have you

628
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 1: ever mediated either alone or meditated? Mediated? Meditated? Meditated alone,

629
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,879
Speaker 1: or did one of those hippie retreats? If you asked,

630
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 1: what was your experience? Like? That's his first question. I've

631
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 1: never meditated, although I have done. My wife made me

632
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 1: download an app. Hold on me, let me look it

633
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 1: up here homeless like here that that. Uh, it's a

634
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 1: box breathing. You ever done box box breathing? No? Never? Yeah,

635
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 1: she it's one of her hippie things. It's a breathing

636
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: exercise you're supposed to do to calm you down when

637
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 1: you're stressful. So I have done that, and although the

638
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:30,759
Speaker 1: last time I did it was in May, so I

639
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,920
Speaker 1: haven't done it in a while. But I have the

640
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:37,640
Speaker 1: app here that tracks my history of doing me the

641
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 1: breathing exercises, so I I do have that, But I've

642
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:46,279
Speaker 1: never done meditation. Um, you guess on any meditation like

643
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:50,760
Speaker 1: I've done yoga in the past, and it is extremely

644
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 1: hard for me to just zero in on nothing, like

645
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:59,879
Speaker 1: to lose lose thought and not wander and not think

646
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 1: about anything. Yeah, it's pretty It's it's extreme for me.

647
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:05,760
Speaker 1: You just go from hundred miles an hour to nothing.

648
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 1: It's it's a challenge. I don't know if you can

649
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 1: get away with it. I think the only way that

650
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 1: I can get into that kind of state of mind

651
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 1: is by listening to music and uh, but obviously the

652
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: musical patterns, they obviously will take shape in different tempos,

653
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: and then that gets me going or swimming me down

654
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:30,799
Speaker 1: a little bit. So that's about it. Yeah, you know,

655
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:33,359
Speaker 1: I don't do the meditation. I do listen. I've told

656
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,439
Speaker 1: the story before. I when I'm prepping for the show

657
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 1: and I'm looking for stuff to talk about, I often

658
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 1: have I have a a playlist of classical music that

659
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:42,960
Speaker 1: I will play or jazz music, kind of a mix

660
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 1: of classical and jazz, and I'll listen to that and

661
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 1: that calms me down. My my wife says, the only

662
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 1: I never turned off my brain. I never unplugged my

663
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: brain when I'm here at the house. So she said.

664
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 1: The only time I do it as when we go

665
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:04,160
Speaker 1: out of town. So we'll go on like weekend road trips.

666
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 1: Not we haven't done it recently, sayce she was working

667
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: on the weekends. But we'll go to like Sequoia, you know,

668
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 1: and I'll hang out. I go out in that giant forest,

669
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 1: and I just told it, it's great. It's wonderful because

670
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 1: it's you're out in the giant forest and I have

671
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 1: no cell reception there, so I can't even if I

672
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 1: wanted to check my phone. I couldn't check my phone.

673
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:28,479
Speaker 1: Is you're off the grid unplugged? It's it's Neil. It's great.

697
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: buck to where I am now and then the exact change.

698
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 1: I don't know if you and your dad were like this,

699
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:56,839
Speaker 1: but my dad obviously changed drastically from being a cod

700
00:40:56,920 --> 00:41:00,120
Speaker 1: to being retired, Like the dynamics just changed drastic. We

701
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:04,919
Speaker 1: were the lines of communication or wide open. Now we're

702
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 1: before Back of the day, it was like open and closed.

703
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:13,880
Speaker 1: It was. It was different, obviously, And so that's a

704
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 1: good question. I think the one The one thing is

705
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 1: I could ask that dude anything and I'm gonna get

706
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,880
Speaker 1: the right answer, or if I don't get the right answer,

707
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: pretty damn close. Like that's the one thing that I

708
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:31,319
Speaker 1: feel like nowadays, especially with just you know, everything going on,

709
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:36,359
Speaker 1: I could ask him anything and it's like extreme. I

710
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:39,640
Speaker 1: was always a mama's boy. I mean, I my mom

711
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,440
Speaker 1: was my number one and the ultimate mom's boy. And

712
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:44,600
Speaker 1: I wasn't really close with my dad. My dad had

713
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 1: a corporate job. He worked at a computer company back

714
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,440
Speaker 1: in when computers were the size of a football field.

715
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,080
Speaker 1: So he worked at this computer company and it was

716
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,880
Speaker 1: actually we we I used to bust my dad's balls

717
00:41:56,920 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 1: because Bill Gates worked at his company before he left

718
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 1: to go start you know, eventually what led to uh,

719
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 1: you know, Microsoft, So he had worked there, but my

720
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:11,319
Speaker 1: dad didn't know him or anything like that. But I

721
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 1: just I just, you know, it could have been you

722
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,880
Speaker 1: you know, we've been but my my dad got lost

723
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 1: his corporate job when I was in high school and

724
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 1: my mom had run a small business out of the

725
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,759
Speaker 1: house and my dad he was kind of at the

726
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 1: age where you couldn't really get a job in the

727
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 1: corporate world because he was too old. He was middle aged,

728
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 1: and so they just ran the family business and built

729
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 1: that up. But I really became closer with my dad

730
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:37,880
Speaker 1: when my mom passed away, like the last the last

731
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 1: seven eight years or whatever it has been, so and

732
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 1: I became close with him, But I I really wasn't

733
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:45,600
Speaker 1: all that close, you know. I was kind of my

734
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,319
Speaker 1: breast my dad's pretty quiet, and I didn't talked that much.

735
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 1: And but yeah, yeah, I'm I'm like like that. Like

736
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,239
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm like a mix, you know, I'm I'm

737
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 1: I'm my little a little you know. I think that's

738
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 1: how it usually works, right, You got some of your

739
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:03,640
Speaker 1: mom's qualities, some of your dad's qualities, and yeah, whatever

740
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:07,359
Speaker 1: whatever that produces, whatever mix that produces, You've got there,

741
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:10,719
Speaker 1: all right. Moving on from Neil fred in Spring, Texas

742
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:13,880
Speaker 1: says what foreign country would you both like most to

743
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:18,120
Speaker 1: visit and why Japan? You want to go Japan. I

744
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:20,400
Speaker 1: want to go to Japan really bad. I'm fascinating with

745
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 1: their culture and their discipline, and it's just a direct

746
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 1: opposite of what we have here in the United States.

747
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:32,760
Speaker 1: Like the United States is a giant melting pot of cultures, diversity, influence,

748
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:37,840
Speaker 1: you know, obviously religious, non religious, um, but Japan is

749
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,439
Speaker 1: exact opposite. They are strict with what they do, They're

750
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:45,400
Speaker 1: strict with their discipline and um. And obviously they respect

751
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 1: their elders too. Yeah. Like I think just the historical

752
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:51,920
Speaker 1: perspective too. I mean, you go to pretty much ground

753
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:56,080
Speaker 1: zero for for obviously Hiroshima and uh, you know, you

754
00:43:56,360 --> 00:44:02,400
Speaker 1: talk about some of the uh, the rural world historical pieces.

755
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:04,560
Speaker 1: You know, I've talked to you about a couple of

756
00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:06,960
Speaker 1: years ago. Actually taken a trip to asch fitzen Berken

757
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 1: now uh and going to the concentration camps you know,

758
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 1: Germany and Poland and whatnot. So I think going to

759
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 1: Japan that would be absolutely amazing. And I heard the

760
00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:19,160
Speaker 1: people are freaking wonderful too out there. Yeah. Yeah, I

761
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:21,839
Speaker 1: as I've gotten old, this is one thing that's changed

762
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 1: in my life. I'm more open to travel. I can't

763
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 1: afford it, but I'm more open to it. There's a

764
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:30,279
Speaker 1: lot of places, fred I would like to visit. I

765
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 1: did have, you know, being of Jewish descent, I had relatives.

766
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 1: I remember when I was a kid at a family

767
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 1: bar Mitzvah. Uh. There was one of the old relatives

768
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:40,640
Speaker 1: was there when I was a kid, and they had

769
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:45,919
Speaker 1: the tattoo from the concentration camp then, and they were old,

770
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,799
Speaker 1: fragile and all that. I remember they made sure to

771
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,040
Speaker 1: show all those kids. And at the time I didn't

772
00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 1: really get it, you know, because you're a kid, and

773
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:54,879
Speaker 1: you're like, what the funk? Who cares? You know, you're

774
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:56,879
Speaker 1: just an old guy. With it that too. But then

775
00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:59,319
Speaker 1: as I got older and realized what had happened, I'm like,

776
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:03,839
Speaker 1: holy sh it, holy shit balls right, But yeah, so

777
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:08,160
Speaker 1: going seeing some of that that history as I got

778
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:09,840
Speaker 1: I get family. I guess a lot of my families

779
00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,160
Speaker 1: was from Russia, but it's now the Ukraine. So maybe

780
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:17,120
Speaker 1: check Neil where Neil's from. And I don't think Neil

781
00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 1: can help me out based on his experience with the

782
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,320
Speaker 1: Russian government over there. That's I don't think he's a

783
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 1: he's a good person to talk to you, but uh,

794
00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 1: filled donuts considered a healthy in a diet. He says, yeah, well,

795
00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 1: it's it's all about perspective as a fat man. To me,

796
00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:11,279
Speaker 1: it's a fruit. You're eating fruit. You know, my mom,

797

Speaker 1: I like. I like that. No, I don't eat a

800
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:23,520
Speaker 1: lot of donuts anymore. I love doughnuts. Donuts are great.

802
00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:30,000
Speaker 1: Anybody that says their life sucks, eat a doughnut fresh

803
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 1: out of the oven. Man, at least for five minutes,

804
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:36,160
Speaker 1: you'll think, you know, life's not that bad, unless you're diabetic,

805
00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 1: and then you'll obviously I would. I'm I'm still a

806
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:45,640
Speaker 1: big fan of the donut holes because you can eat

807
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:50,440
Speaker 1: more quantity. Yeah, it's probably. I mean, I like go

810
00:46:56,000 --> 00:47:01,279
Speaker 1: It's either donut holes or the or the twists. Yeah.

00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 1: been involved in any accidents? Yes, yes, I have also been.

837
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:42,480
Speaker 1: I've been in several accidents over the years. Twice check

838
00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:46,439
Speaker 1: this out. Twice I have been in a multi car

839
00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:53,399
Speaker 1: accident where suddenly traffic stops. And twice I stopped just

840
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 1: in time to not hit the car in front of

841
00:48:56,160 --> 00:49:00,520
Speaker 1: me right, but the car behind me it me. I

842
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:03,800
Speaker 1: got rear ended and an a chain reaction got knocked

843
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:07,640
Speaker 1: into the car in front of me. Happened twice. Last

844
00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:13,480
Speaker 1: time I got know an accident was twenty fourteen. I

845
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:16,840
Speaker 1: was driving on the one thirty four, Not not the

846
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,799
Speaker 1: one thirty four. I was driving on the what's the

847
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:24,759
Speaker 1: Glendale Freeway, the one the two that goes up Yeah, anyway,

848
00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:27,480
Speaker 1: for those of you in southern California who are familiar

849
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,600
Speaker 1: with the freeways. So I got I got rear ended.

850
00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:32,440
Speaker 1: I was transitioning onto the one four from the two.

851
00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 1: I got rear ended, and I was fine after the accident.

852
00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:41,319
Speaker 1: The next day, I had my neck, I couldn't move

853
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:45,399
Speaker 1: my neck, and I felt I felt so stupid. Because

854
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:49,920
Speaker 1: I'd always mocked people that claimed to have whiplash after accidents,

855
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:52,000
Speaker 1: and I was like, wait a minute, that's no. I'm

856
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,440
Speaker 1: sure some of those people were lying, but that's actually legit.

857
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:57,839
Speaker 1: And they told me that. The doctor said that it's

858
00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:01,279
Speaker 1: because you have when you get an accident, you have

859
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:03,799
Speaker 1: what's the thing, what's the word I'm looking for here? Um,

860
00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:09,120
Speaker 1: you know you're well, no, no, no, but you don't

861
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:12,520
Speaker 1: notice it because you have the chemicals in your brain

862
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:17,279
Speaker 1: were adrenaline. Adrenaline, adrenaline. Yeah, that's it. And so I

863
00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:20,799
Speaker 1: didn't realize it. And you know the next day when

864
00:50:20,840 --> 00:50:22,399
Speaker 1: that's when we actually I think it was that night

865
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:25,560
Speaker 1: when stuff were out the adrenaline war down. I was like,

866

Speaker 1: whoa man, that's crazy. Uh anyway, uh, gentleman from I

874
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:02,239
Speaker 1: got the woods, got everything right there. It's a picturesque.

875
00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:04,600
Speaker 1: It looks like a postcard this place. You know what

876
00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:11,919
Speaker 1: if if Catalina looked like this, I would go to Catalina. Man.

877
00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 1: This is absolutely this is something you would see in

878
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:20,360
Speaker 1: a movie, on a postcard, on on a screen saver.

879
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,880
Speaker 1: This is gorgeous. This looks this looks like Italy in

880
00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:27,120
Speaker 1: some ways, where the where the woods meet the sea.

881
00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 1: It's wonderful. I never heard of it before. It's a

882
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 1: district in on Vancouver Island. They only have they have

883
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 1: less than two thousand residents on the west coast of

884
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:49,399
Speaker 1: Vancouver Island in British Columbia. Man, that is a little paradise. Man.

885
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:51,520
Speaker 1: I wish I had written down the name Batch out

886
00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:55,720
Speaker 1: by me, the gentleman that sent this. But you shouldn't

887
00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:58,319
Speaker 1: be telling people about your secret there. And he just

888
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:00,600
Speaker 1: told me, and I just repeated it to thousands and

889
00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:02,719
Speaker 1: thousands of people. That job by you, all right. So

890
00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:05,719
Speaker 1: I wonder what the approaches because it's not it's not

891
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 1: close to Vancouver like you have to. It almost looks

892
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:14,440
Speaker 1: like distance from l A to Las Vegas in and

893
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:16,880
Speaker 1: just in terms of a flight yeah, so it's probably

894
00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:19,440
Speaker 1: a forty five minute flight because you gotta go over

895
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:21,840
Speaker 1: some water too. But man, this thing is right on

896
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:26,200
Speaker 1: the west coast. It looks absolutely gorgeous. They say they

897
00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:31,320
Speaker 1: have boat services. You can take a boat. One of

898
00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:33,480
Speaker 1: these days, I'm gonna take a boat across Lake Michigan

899
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:39,120
Speaker 1: from from Appleton, Wisconsin. I have my cousins that live

900
00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:45,719
Speaker 1: in northern Michigan, and so she's my cousin. Marcy's like,

901
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:50,520
Speaker 1: you gotta take the boat across Lake Michigan to so

902
00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:52,680
Speaker 1: I gotta do that. But this this place looks. Yeah.

903
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:56,360
Speaker 1: They they have the San Juan Islands, so they have

904
00:52:56,560 --> 00:53:00,680
Speaker 1: like the Wall Drown Island, the Lemni Island, and the

905
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:04,800
Speaker 1: Loomis Island. Man, that's like a bunch of little islands.

906
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:10,920
Speaker 1: As you go through from Vancouver to Ye it's pretty

907
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:13,880
Speaker 1: neat the weather there. I'm looking at the weather in

908
00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:17,240
Speaker 1: Tofino right now in November thirty eight degrees on average,

909
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:22,360
Speaker 1: or the day or the daily mean is forty four degrees.

910
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:25,040
Speaker 1: It's usually it seems like it will be in the

911
00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:27,960
Speaker 1: forties until and it doesn't get hot like during the summer.

912
00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 1: It's it's like it's Canada. Man, it's supposed to be cool. Yeah,

913
00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:35,360
Speaker 1: I bet you. The spring is probably awesome. April forty

914
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:40,840
Speaker 1: six degrees, average May fifty fifty point nine. The hottest

915
00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:43,320
Speaker 1: gets is in July at fifty eight degrees. Actually know,

916
00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:47,000
Speaker 1: August fifty degrees in August m so it's like cool.

917
00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:50,120
Speaker 1: But they have gotten up to the nineties before. But

918
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:53,680
Speaker 1: that the daily averages, I guess you can't get in

919
00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:56,080
Speaker 1: the sixties. Maybe I'm reading this wrong. Who knows, I

920
00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:59,080
Speaker 1: don't know, but it says it says fifties low sixties.

921
00:53:59,719 --> 00:54:03,120
Speaker 1: Are you really get a Celsius or fahre kneit? I

922
00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:06,200
Speaker 1: know I was. I was looking at the Ron American.

923
00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:14,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. Okay, the gasoline in uh in Canada? Right?

924
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:18,880
Speaker 1: They so by? They so by? The leader isn't right? Yeah?

925
00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:23,520
Speaker 1: What's what's bigger? A leader or a gallant? I believe

926
00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:27,279
Speaker 1: I believe a gallon is, isn't it? I don't know.

927
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:30,120
Speaker 1: I'm I have no idea Google it. Just google it.

928
00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:34,320
Speaker 1: Let me know. Should hit The best month to visit

929
00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:40,239
Speaker 1: Tofino is June two September. Okay, so we just missed it.

930
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,960
Speaker 1: I'll have to wait till next year. Could I get

931
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:45,840
Speaker 1: a studio and I'm in the north Woods. Could I

932
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:49,280
Speaker 1: be in the Tofino Woods in the Vancouver Island north Woods.

933
00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:52,760
Speaker 1: You'd have to bring an axe at least, right, Paul

934
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:56,800
Speaker 1: Bunyan walking around there chopping wood. Yeah, it's a conversion

935
00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:59,640
Speaker 1: of one gallon is about three point seven nine leaders.

936
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:07,000
Speaker 1: Wait wait so one so the leader is more than Okay,

937
00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:09,240
Speaker 1: so they get a better deal in Canada with their gas,

938
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:12,680
Speaker 1: they paid more. I don't know how they can pay

939
00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:16,680
Speaker 1: more than us. Well, gas prices ever go down again?

940
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:19,680
Speaker 1: Well maybe, yeah, maybe a good down in a year

941
00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:24,880
Speaker 1: a year. Yeah, yeah, once certain members of political parties

942
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:26,680
Speaker 1: are voted out of office and then they have to

943
00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:31,520
Speaker 1: do something to address the inflation. Not here in the

944
00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:37,359
Speaker 1: state of California. Well, no, California is insane, man, It's

945
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:41,920
Speaker 1: the same fucking gas. And uh they claim it's it's

946
00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:47,520
Speaker 1: different because the the environmentalists put them, make them have

947
00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:49,719
Speaker 1: have to put a different mix of gas together so

948
00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:52,840
Speaker 1: they can charge next dollar and all the gas tacks

949
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:57,480
Speaker 1: and all that not to get political gas. Come before

950
00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:00,880
Speaker 1: I forget a story that caught my touch. L A

951
00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 1: l a proper is a shanty town. It is horrible. Uh,

952
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:08,640
Speaker 1: there's so much homeless. I feel bad for the homeless,

953
00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:10,600
Speaker 1: but a lot of these people don't want to get

954
00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:12,440
Speaker 1: off the streets. They love doing their drugs and they

955
00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:14,200
Speaker 1: don't want anyone telling them where to go and all that,

956
00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:16,960
Speaker 1: and they like shipping and pissing on the street. It's

957
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:20,680
Speaker 1: just a reality. So for the last I would say

958
00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:25,360
Speaker 1: five years in particular, l A has decided very boldly

959
00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:27,919
Speaker 1: to just allow the homeless to do whatever they want

960
00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:30,920
Speaker 1: and not bugged. Right, it's got even worse since COVID.

961
00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:33,839
Speaker 1: So you drive on the one oh one in in

962
00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:38,839
Speaker 1: downtown l A and it is horrific. It is the

963
00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:40,520
Speaker 1: worst of the worst. Right, you feel like you're in

964
00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:43,160
Speaker 1: a third world country because there's so much hope. It's terrible.

965
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:48,040
Speaker 1: So this week the city of l A decided randomly

966
00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:51,799
Speaker 1: that they need to clean up the homeless encampments, right,

967
00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:53,839
Speaker 1: they need to take up the homeless because it's become

968
00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:55,920
Speaker 1: such a big problem. Finally, they decided, we need to

969
00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:59,640
Speaker 1: do something about this. So the l A Times, the

970
00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:03,880
Speaker 1: paper of record in l A, complain that it's for

971
00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:08,080
Speaker 1: political reasons that they're doing it, and they're being inhumane

972
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:12,279
Speaker 1: to the homeless. So apparently all those people that pay

973
00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:15,160
Speaker 1: property taxes are supposed to just pay their property taxes

974
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:18,480
Speaker 1: and uh and not clean up the ship. And the

975
00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:22,120
Speaker 1: people that are degrading their neighborhoods, they're just supposed to

976
00:57:22,120 --> 00:57:31,000
Speaker 1: take it. That's unbelievable. Serious, Oh my god, John writes

977
00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:33,200
Speaker 1: and says, one of the most hated people in St.

978
00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:38,880
Speaker 1: Louis bar None. Seriously. I can't think of an opposing player, manager, politician,

979
00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:44,040
Speaker 1: and Missouri has some doozies despised here more than your

980
00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:48,480
Speaker 1: man stand Cronkey. Hmm, Well, John, first of all, he's

981
00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:50,560
Speaker 1: not my man. I just happened to like the Rams.

982
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:53,120
Speaker 1: He happens to be the guardian of the Rams franchise

983
00:57:53,200 --> 00:57:56,320
Speaker 1: right now. That's number one. Number two. I do have

984
00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:58,840
Speaker 1: friends in the media that our buddy Buddy with Stand

985
00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:03,880
Speaker 1: Cronkey supposed we had Jerome Darenovitch on the podcast He's

986
00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:06,960
Speaker 1: Buddies with Cronkey worked for Cronkey in Denver. I think

987
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:10,880
Speaker 1: your guy, Colin Cowhard is a Cronkey disciple. I believe

988
00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:14,680
Speaker 1: as well. And I used to know Joe McDonald the

989
00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:17,280
Speaker 1: late Joe mcdonney passed away. Obviously old man was dead,

990
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 1: but Big Joe the big nasty l a radio legend.

991
00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:24,960
Speaker 1: He knew Cronkey a little bit. Crocky's friends with select

992
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:27,920
Speaker 1: people in the media, but I've heard good things about him.

993
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:31,800
Speaker 1: But he's a very private man. But obviously the St.

994
00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:36,760
Speaker 1: Louis thing, Oh man, that is a major, major f up.

995
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:38,520
Speaker 1: That's gonna cost a ton of money. All right, last

996
00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:43,440
Speaker 1: one here, Lord Goofa from Cardboard City. Right, So, and

997
00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:45,480
Speaker 1: he says, would you rather that's a good question for

998
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,080
Speaker 1: both of you, says would you rather have a pause

999
00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:55,320
Speaker 1: button in your life or a rewind button? Now? Does

1000
00:58:55,360 --> 00:58:59,919
Speaker 1: the re one button mean that you can redo? Yeah,

1001
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna assume creative license here, artistic license that you

1002
00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:06,480
Speaker 1: could redo the life that you have that every wind

1003
00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:13,960
Speaker 1: And what would you change not doing this podcast? That

1004
00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:17,680
Speaker 1: would be number one. I think I think some I

1005
00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:21,280
Speaker 1: think some dating choices back in the day. UM. I

1006
00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:25,840
Speaker 1: think academic selections back in the day are important or

1007
00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:30,400
Speaker 1: like thereof um and I probably should have followed my

1008
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:34,920
Speaker 1: dad's advice and put baseball inst the football into college. Um.

1009
00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:38,360
Speaker 1: Those are just a handful, you know what I screwed up?

1010
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:41,360
Speaker 1: I could admit this as being like the I guess

1011
00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:43,680
Speaker 1: that the ringleader of the group. But in my twenties,

1012
00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:45,960
Speaker 1: all my friends I grew up with in San Diego.

1013
00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:49,440
Speaker 1: Anytime there's a bachelor party, it was always Las Vegas.

1014
00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:53,600
Speaker 1: But then now that I traveled internationally, I don't know

1015
00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:55,960
Speaker 1: what the hell we're thinking, Like, there's so much more

1016
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:58,960
Speaker 1: out there than just Vegas or San Diego or l

1017
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:03,600
Speaker 1: A or Miami. It's it's embarrassing. It's a lot easier though,

1018
01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:05,760
Speaker 1: to get to Vegas or Miami. You don't have to

1019
01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:08,400
Speaker 1: worry about a passport and all that stuff, you know,

1020
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:12,720
Speaker 1: But it's it's like a man once told me, it

1021
01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:16,400
Speaker 1: doesn't matter like where you're going, it's about the journey.

1022
01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:18,680
Speaker 1: Well it's a yeah, it's the stories you pick up

1023
01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:20,320
Speaker 1: along the way. And that is why I would not

1024
01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:22,680
Speaker 1: hit the rewind button as much as I would like

1025
01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:24,520
Speaker 1: to be go back and hang out with my mom

1026
01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:26,800
Speaker 1: again and people I love that have died in my life,

1027
01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:29,720
Speaker 1: and I think that would be great. I'm convinced I would. See.

1028
01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:32,440
Speaker 1: We are all a product of our decisions, right, We're

1029
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:35,040
Speaker 1: product Every decision you make leads to the next decision

1030
01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:38,200
Speaker 1: and leads to who you become in life experience. So

1031
01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:40,920
Speaker 1: I wouldn't go back because I would make different decisions,

1032
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,080
Speaker 1: but I'd probably funk up in a different way, you

1033
01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:45,640
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So so I'm okay with where

1034
01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:47,120
Speaker 1: I'm at in life. I feel like I'm in a

1035
01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:49,000
Speaker 1: good spot in my life. I would like to hit

1036
01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:53,720
Speaker 1: the pause button. I'll tell you why, because the grind

1037
01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:55,520
Speaker 1: and we all have our own problems in life, but

1038
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:57,480
Speaker 1: the grind of doing the radio show, in the podcast,

1039
01:00:57,520 --> 01:01:00,760
Speaker 1: I would be fun to take a couple of months

1040
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:04,200
Speaker 1: hit the pause button and not have to worry about

1041
01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:09,160
Speaker 1: all that and just travel around, enjoy life and just

1042
01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:13,080
Speaker 1: have some downtime and reset. And I only get to

1043
01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:15,400
Speaker 1: do that usually a week a year, ten days a

1044
01:01:15,480 --> 01:01:16,840
Speaker 1: year at the end of the year, but to do

1045
01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:18,920
Speaker 1: it for a couple of months, to hit the pause button,

1046
01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:22,640
Speaker 1: that would be awesome. That would be great. And so

1047
01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:26,400
Speaker 1: I would choose the pause button rather than the rewind button,

1048
01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:30,120
Speaker 1: because yeah, in in retrospect, that's probably a little bit

1049
01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:32,640
Speaker 1: better with women, with the life experience I have now

1050
01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:35,640
Speaker 1: and stuff I know now, But then I probably would

1051
01:01:35,680 --> 01:01:39,760
Speaker 1: have made different mistakes with you know this, uh As

1052
01:01:39,800 --> 01:01:41,440
Speaker 1: we like to say, a couple of different ways to

1053
01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:43,960
Speaker 1: slice an orange or a peel and orange, a couple

1054
01:01:43,960 --> 01:01:46,320
Speaker 1: of different ways to tie shoes or whatever. You just

1055
01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:48,160
Speaker 1: pick a different way. But it doesn't mean to be perfect.

1056
01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,360
Speaker 1: It's still be muddy waters there as well. So yeah,

1057
01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:55,280
Speaker 1: that's all right. Anything to promote, gasc on, anything to

1058
01:01:55,400 --> 01:01:58,640
Speaker 1: promote no just beaversus the penny week nine if you

1059
01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:00,439
Speaker 1: if you need to find it, you go to your

1060
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:04,280
Speaker 1: Twitter handle h or mine. And then of course, uh,

1061
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:07,520
Speaker 1: you know, I ain't got the loud and proud Arizona

1062
01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:12,360
Speaker 1: Cardinals in San Francisco today, So go Niners, Go Go Niners,

1063
01:02:12,400 --> 01:02:16,400
Speaker 1: Go Rams and Titans tonight, and I will be on

1064
01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:20,200
Speaker 1: after that game now tonight, will you? Will you dance

1065
01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:25,240
Speaker 1: a little bit with the Aaron Rodgers conversation at all? Yeah?

1066
01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:28,000
Speaker 1: You know, I have to see where we're at in

1067
01:02:28,080 --> 01:02:31,000
Speaker 1: the Rogers story. And I have a feeling that something

1068
01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:34,520
Speaker 1: will have come out on Sunday morning about Aaron Rodgers

1069
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:37,040
Speaker 1: that will be whether it's Glazer or Schefter, will have

1070
01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:42,760
Speaker 1: some scoopage about that story. So I'll, yeah, I don't

1071
01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:45,000
Speaker 1: know that I'll do it on the Overnight Show Sunday

1072
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:46,920
Speaker 1: and the Money, but I guarantee you we're gonna circle

1073
01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:49,480
Speaker 1: back to Aaron Rodgers. It'll be on the will be

1074
01:02:49,520 --> 01:02:53,280
Speaker 1: on the same brain wave Monday into Tuesday, and that's

1075
01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:56,120
Speaker 1: a story that we'll have legs because well we have

1076
01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:58,440
Speaker 1: to wait to see Rogers comes back, Like when's he

1077
01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:00,400
Speaker 1: gonna come back? What's gonna you know that whole thing?

1078
01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:04,120
Speaker 1: Does he when the ship hits the fan? And he's

1079
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:07,320
Speaker 1: obviously upset based on his interview back on Friday with

1080
01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:12,320
Speaker 1: Pat McAfee, has paid interview with comments he may drag

1081
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:17,640
Speaker 1: Joe Rogan into this thing, so it'll it'll be interesting

1082
01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:21,000
Speaker 1: in the locker room. Is their dissension in the packer

1083
01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:24,240
Speaker 1: locker room? Or people upset with Aaron Rodgers. I know

1084
01:03:24,320 --> 01:03:27,720
Speaker 1: a lot of liberal hack columnists are upset, but will

1085
01:03:27,720 --> 01:03:30,640
Speaker 1: it actually matter in the locker room? Will will not care?
