Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah 0:00:58.440 --> 0:01:00.840 blah blah blah blah blah blah blah from West of 0:01:00.880 --> 0:01:06.240 the four oh five for now will be moving. Will 0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:08.720 you tell l a county to Well, it's sucker London. 0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:14.560 David gascon Well, I got h I got booted from 0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:17.880 a from a workout studio a few days ago for 0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:23.720 that exact reason. They COVID protocol. Well they yeah, so 0:01:23.760 --> 0:01:26.399 they said we need you to wear a mask. Well 0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:28.120 I didn't get booted. I just didn't go in. But 0:01:28.200 --> 0:01:30.600 they basically said, you need to be wearing a mask 0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:33.240 and you need to bring proof of vaccination in order 0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:37.320 to come into the to the facility. And so I said, 0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:39.440 well why is that. Obviously I was playing dumb because 0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:43.120 I knew the mandate from from our king, and they 0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:45.839 told me exactly what it was. And uh, I said, 0:01:46.319 --> 0:01:50.280 I need a refund. I will not be visiting your establishment. 0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:54.640 I do not agree with these, uh the statewide mandates 0:01:54.720 --> 0:01:59.320 and imposing those fines on individual companies that that ignore it. 0:01:59.480 --> 0:02:02.200 So I said, peace out, give me my money back, 0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:03.760 and that's exactly what I did. I took my ball 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:08.280 and I went home. Good good for you. Uh yeah, 0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:13.480 I have not been attending as many sporting events. You know. 0:02:13.480 --> 0:02:15.520 I have access to a lot of games. I've been 0:02:15.560 --> 0:02:19.000 to a few NFL games, been to the Dodger playoff games, 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:21.120 but I have not been to any NBA or hockey games. 0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:26.760 And part of it is the mask bullshit, which if 0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:28.920 I'm sitting by myself and no one's around me. Why 0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:30.200 am I gonna wear Why do I have to wear 0:02:30.200 --> 0:02:34.799 a mask? Most most ridiculous thing in the world. And 0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:38.160 uh so I've been been not as active as I 0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:40.160 usually would be at this point. I've already and I've 0:02:40.160 --> 0:02:44.320 I've avoided that, that scene and all that. But when 0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:46.160 will it end? That's the question. Is it gonna be 0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:52.560 in January February two? I don't know if it will. 0:02:52.600 --> 0:02:55.000 I don't think there's any there's no need for it 0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:58.519 to end, right, I mean you have probably it has 0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:03.600 ended elsewhere, but yeah, just on the coast or the 0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:07.240 northeast and the West coast, it hasn't. It hasn't slowed 0:03:07.240 --> 0:03:09.359 down at all. But I told you the story when 0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:12.480 the Dodgers were playing the Atlanta Braves in the National 0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:17.880 Championship Series. The the Atlanta Brave beat writers like they 0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:20.960 were they from Georgia. They're not wearing any stupid man 0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:24.280 like screw you. And you got like the l A writer, 0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:26.680 the l A writers that are like double masked and 0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:30.120 had their hoodies on, and you know, super scared about 0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:35.560 what was going on making you mentioned you mentioned bumping 0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:38.080 our gums. When I was a kid, I love the 0:03:38.160 --> 0:03:40.600 double dipping. I don't know if you did this, but 0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:44.280 I would buy a pack of Strawberry and a pack 0:03:44.400 --> 0:03:48.640 of Great Big League Chew and I'd mix it after 0:03:49.280 --> 0:03:52.160 during every game, I'd I'd be double did them with 0:03:52.160 --> 0:03:54.440 a Big League Chew. That was my favorite brand of 0:03:54.480 --> 0:03:56.480 bubble gum back in the day as a kid. It was. 0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.040 It was great. It's like it's like eating filame and 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:04.480 yon and then eating a burger, like when you compared 0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:06.520 to eating gum out of a baseball pack. You know, 0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:11.520 the stick of gum that was just stale. Yeah, yeah, 0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:16.080 Big League to what a great concept to teach children 0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:20.599 in retrospect, in hindsight, right, to teach kids how to 0:04:20.760 --> 0:04:23.320 stick a wad of chewing tobacco in their mouth because 0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:25.520 they're not old enough for chewing tobacco. So it's like 0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:28.440 a starter set, right. It's like it's like, well, let's 0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:32.279 pretend that you are your favorite baseball player, because growing 0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:37.719 up for young punks like watching this Weekend Baseball and 0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:39.599 like we had we've had Lenny dik Straw on the 0:04:39.640 --> 0:04:42.200 podcast and some other people. They had these massive they 0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:45.880 had like a golf ball size thing of chewing tobacco 0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:49.279 in their in their mouth. It was wild man. And 0:04:49.360 --> 0:04:51.200 Lenny didn't let me lose all his teeth. I think 0:04:51.240 --> 0:04:54.680 that might be from other things, but yeah, but yeah, 0:04:54.680 --> 0:04:56.719 that the big league chew was awesome and you felt 0:04:56.760 --> 0:04:58.400 like you were in the big leagues. You're you're here 0:04:58.440 --> 0:05:01.479 a little league park. You know, there's like three people, 0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:04.359 they're all parents watching you, and but you've got a 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:06.920 big wad of big league chew and you got little 0:05:06.960 --> 0:05:10.000 pouch in your back pocket, right just like the players. 0:05:10.560 --> 0:05:12.919 I mean, who would you remember, because I remember Dikestra 0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:17.640 was one of them. I think Eric Davis was another. Strawberry. 0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:22.760 Strawberry had a lot. Uh, there was Ken oh, I 0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:25.400 mean fun man. I got us as soult Tony Gwinnuck 0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:31.400 died of it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm not trying to 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:33.279 There was a guy of the Red Sox that had 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:36.960 had a big They were I mean pretty much everybody 0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:41.320 back in those days. Uh, chewing tobacco was was insane. 0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:45.200 But Bikestro was the biggest cause Thanks Tro would forget 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:49.560 golf ball. Thanks Tro would have like softball. He would 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:54.159 go all in and it was it was nuts man, 0:05:54.240 --> 0:05:59.160 and it was like the late eighties early nineties, they 0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:05.200 would ridicu he list wads of chewing tobacco. Uh. And 0:06:05.279 --> 0:06:08.240 as a kid, you're watching that, You're like, whoa, what 0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:12.280 is what is going on here? Like this is crazy? 0:06:12.440 --> 0:06:14.520 I just thought it was cool. Yeah. I mean my 0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:16.840 grandfather my dad's side, was a smoker too, and I 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:18.560 just thought that was just the cool thing to do. 0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:22.160 I had no idea how and healthy and dangerous that was. Yeah. 0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:26.000 George Brett, he was another guy, George that's right. Yeah, 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:28.560 he had a big, big thing in his mouth. I 0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:31.640 remember with the Royals back in the day, the pines 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:33.680 As when he goes out to home plate and he 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:39.039 just got that big ball of chew and yeah yeah yeah, 0:06:39.080 --> 0:06:45.640 and uh Nick Swisher who worked for us UM. But 0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:47.800 the are a lot of guys now I don't really 0:06:47.839 --> 0:06:49.400 notice it. Maybe I don't pay attention to it. I 0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:50.680 don't think a lot of the guys are doing it now. 0:06:50.680 --> 0:06:52.200 They've tried to get rid of it, and I think 0:06:52.200 --> 0:06:54.280 they got rid of it minor league baseball. They outlawed 0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:59.400 it in my monlleague baseball. But man, they've been been 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:02.760 some big time chewing tobacco people over the I think 0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:06.880 Babe Ruth back in the day, the Bambino. One of 0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:08.920 the reasons he got cancer, they claim, is because of 0:07:10.360 --> 0:07:15.680 his love of tobacco. What's that. No, I never know. 0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:17.520 In high school, a bunch of guys on the football 0:07:17.600 --> 0:07:20.520 team did, and they would do it during class and 0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:23.040 they tried to hide it. They tried to hide it. 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:26.480 I remember one of my buddies in his high school 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:28.760 he had He was sitting right next to me, and 0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:30.680 it was like really disgusting because he had like a 0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:34.200 water bottle and he would, you know, when the teacher 0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:37.480 turned their back on the class, he spit a little bit, 0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:40.040 and uh it was I saw it was in the bottle. 0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:44.760 I was like, dude, that's pretty bad. Plus, my mom 0:07:45.400 --> 0:07:47.400 put the fear of God in me, you know, like 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:49.920 my my both my parents, we don't over smoke, you know, 0:07:49.920 --> 0:07:52.280 because they're there when they were going up, their parents 0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:54.600 smoked and they had cancer and ship you know, stuff 0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:59.440 like that. So anyway, but now you did, right, tobacco, No, 0:07:59.560 --> 0:08:03.360 I never did. Um No, My my dad told me 0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:05.920 he hadn't. He had chewed once and got sick to 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:09.520 his stomach and threw up. And then on my mom's side, 0:08:09.680 --> 0:08:12.120 my mom and her twin sister. I guess they tried 0:08:12.160 --> 0:08:15.800 smoking when they were teenagers, and my grandfather did what 0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:18.280 I think a lot of older parents did, was not 0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:21.280 he didn't say, don't do it. He just basically fed 0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:23.560 them more cigarettes to smoke him all at the same 0:08:23.600 --> 0:08:26.760 time until they got sick. And they're like, we're never 0:08:26.800 --> 0:08:30.280 doing this again, and that that did the trick. Wow, 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:34.400 Well that that's great. That's the the chocolate chip cookie 0:08:34.480 --> 0:08:36.160 thing right there. They are you allowed to do that 0:08:36.240 --> 0:08:41.280 anymore though? Or you're as an animal and that's my 0:08:41.559 --> 0:08:43.800 that's my truth, that you're a you're a horrible person, 0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:47.840 you know, and all that stuff. Um, yeah, because they 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:51.160 say if a kid like you know, it loves you know, 0:08:50.600 --> 0:08:53.520 it's kind of goes into the cookie jar. You see 0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:56.320 him in a room with like seven boxes of cookies, 0:08:56.760 --> 0:08:59.400 and you're like, all right, eat up, and you know, 0:08:59.440 --> 0:09:01.400 eat all the cookies, you know, and all that, and 0:09:01.760 --> 0:09:03.520 don't leave the room until you eat all the cookies 0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:06.440 and then you'll never want to eat a cookie again. Yeah. 0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:08.480 I always say that the night after I have tequila 0:09:08.640 --> 0:09:12.319 and for some reason I go back to the well yeah, 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:14.640 well that's like the same concept with me when I 0:09:14.640 --> 0:09:17.480 eat ice cream too fast and I get the brain 0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:20.600 freeze and then I'm like, oh shoot, I hate this. 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:23.120 I'm never eating ice cream again. And then two seconds 0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:26.959 later you're taking another bite. Go to the same contime, 0:09:27.040 --> 0:09:29.079 you go to seven eleven, you get like a slurpee. 0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:33.280 You know, it's so good. And then my bride, my bride, 0:09:33.360 --> 0:09:38.560 my bride. You're like, okay, all right, as soon as 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:40.960 it goes away, all right, here we go. I am back. 0:09:41.000 --> 0:09:43.120 I'm going I'm going to the bank account one more time. 0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:46.160 I'm going back there. I've got my broomstick. I'm gonna 0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:51.480 I'm gonna knock away the coldness. And you're in denial anyway, 0:09:51.520 --> 0:10:01.199 all right, we have amazing, amazing, wonderful, powerful questions from listeners. 0:10:01.360 --> 0:10:04.880 Is the actual mail bag sent in via Ben Maller 0:10:05.000 --> 0:10:08.640 Show on Facebook. That's our Facebook show page for the 0:10:08.760 --> 0:10:12.079 radio show Ben Maller Show, and a lot of questions 0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:14.880 on the email Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com, 0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:18.960 Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com. It's at the 0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:22.079 legit email address. Because you have like fifty Gmail accounts, 0:10:22.080 --> 0:10:25.480 now I do. I have a lot of Gmail accounts. 0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:27.400 I have many Gmail accounts. And the reason I have 0:10:27.400 --> 0:10:29.160 a lot of Gmail accounts is because they limit the 0:10:29.160 --> 0:10:32.640 amount of space and they want you to pay for 0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:35.719 the space. So I just said, you know what, I 0:10:35.840 --> 0:10:38.000 can have as mainly many Gmail accounts as I can. 0:10:38.280 --> 0:10:40.839 So I just keep adding new Gmail.

I have like a catalog 0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:47.679 every time I just put the letter b e N. 0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:50.120 All of a sudden just populates all your damn email 0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:55.559 addresses onto my Gmail Account's ridiculous. Yeah, well, listen, Google 0:10:55.600 --> 0:10:58.480 could give you some legitimate space there for free. And 0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:00.560 I mean they steal all my information and anyway, so 0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:05.400 they just give They choose not to do that. That's 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:09.840 their decision, which is fine. But I'm looking at my 0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:13.040 email let me see you.

I will 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:46.280 be adding more. What email did you use when you 0:11:46.360 --> 0:11:50.240 met your wife on the online dating app? Oh? That 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:53.040 was like a Yahoo? I think Yahoo. So do you 0:11:53.040 --> 0:11:54.480 have a yeah? Now? Do you have an A L 0:11:54.600 --> 0:11:57.880 account that's still active too? Yes? Yes, I have a 0:11:57.960 --> 0:12:00.720 O L That is my spam a count like every 0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:03.400 old guy. That's my spam account, A big a O 0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:05.680 L guy back in the nineties. And you gotta have 0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:09.560 hotmail then too, Right, I do have a Hotmail account, 0:12:10.520 --> 0:12:16.560 but that's only because on I usually use BING, the 0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:19.719 search engine Bing, and I'll tell you why, because they 0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:24.120 track everything, but they give you points. I search a 0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:26.320 lot on the internet. I'm a big searcher, right, So 0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:28.800 I search a lot and they give you these points 0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:31.840 you can cash in for gift cards. So and I 0:12:31.920 --> 0:12:34.000 never I never actually cash them in, but just by 0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:37.680 doing my job searching the internet for you know, things 0:12:37.720 --> 0:12:40.120 that I'm looking to talk about and whatever, maybe the 0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:43.520 definition of words or whatnot. I have when I want 0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:47.720 at my disposal three dollars in Amazon gift cards that 0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:50.000 I have waiting for me that I could use at 0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:53.400 any time. And I'm just waiting, waiting I want to 0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:55.720 see how high I can get it. I actually have 0:12:55.880 --> 0:12:58.880 cashed out. I think I've cashed out about fifty bucks 0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:02.920 in in gift cards early on. But I don't even 0:13:02.960 --> 0:13:05.000 I don't even think about it. I just keep going 0:13:05.080 --> 0:13:07.840 over and over and over again, and uh yes, so 0:13:07.920 --> 0:13:10.600 that's my that's my thing. Anywa, let's get to the 0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:14.160 questions here, and Kevin and Kansas in the leadoff position. 0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:17.560 Kevin says, dear great ones, Ben and David, it's that 0:13:17.679 --> 0:13:21.000 time of the school year again where the weather changes 0:13:21.120 --> 0:13:24.040 and the cold and sore throat season is upon us. 0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:27.959 He says, Ben, would you please repeat the garlic clove 0:13:28.080 --> 0:13:32.520 prescription and what are any side effects? There? You go, 0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:36.720 all right, I can do that briefly. So the garlic therapy, now, 0:13:36.720 --> 0:13:38.760 there's a couple of ways to approach it. Garlic is 0:13:38.880 --> 0:13:44.040 a natural antibiotic. It is the original old world medicine 0:13:44.080 --> 0:13:48.720 before modern medicine. And uh it's seriously, it's got the 0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:56.120 same compounds known in uh in antibiotics are in garlic 0:13:56.440 --> 0:14:01.240 natural antibiotic they called garlic. Now, first sore throat, which 0:14:01.280 --> 0:14:04.680 is normally for most people, the first sign of an illness, 0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:07.760 and you should not take this as medical advice. This 0:14:07.840 --> 0:14:09.440 is just merely a guy in a podcast telling you 0:14:09.480 --> 0:14:12.520 what I do. So, you take a clove of garlic, 0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:17.840 you slice it in half. You put one half of 0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:20.560 that clove of garlic on the right side of your mouth, 0:14:21.120 --> 0:14:25.040 you put one half on the left. You then suck 0:14:25.240 --> 0:14:27.760 the garlic juices like it was a hard candy, like 0:14:27.800 --> 0:14:33.360 a Jolly Roger candy. You do this before bed, and 0:14:33.480 --> 0:14:36.560 you don't obviously eat anything after that or drink anything. 0:14:36.840 --> 0:14:41.600 You do this before bed. The garlic healing powers while 0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:46.800 you are sleeping will attack the infection in your your 0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:51.040 sore throat. And generally speaking, if you catch this early enough, 0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:55.240 the success rate is tremendous. Of nipping a cold in 0:14:55.280 --> 0:14:58.840 the butt. Now, if you're already sick, if you've you've 0:14:58.880 --> 0:15:01.440 missed this opportunity. The other thing that you can do, 0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:07.000 which is much more painful, uh is to take a 0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:10.240 clove of garlic, and even a couple of clothes of 0:15:10.280 --> 0:15:13.200 garlics as much as you can handle, and on an 0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:18.680 empty stomach, eat one to two cloves of garlic. You know, 0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:21.400 the heads of garlic, not the head to clove on 0:15:21.440 --> 0:15:25.960 an empty stomach, and the side effects of that, Kevin Are, 0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:29.640 you will feel horrible. It is very hard to swallow 0:15:29.720 --> 0:15:32.680 raw garlic. It is very difficult to swallow raw garlic. 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:38.320 It is horrible. You will think that you're going to die. Uh, 0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:43.280 it'll burn your throat, it'll it'll feel really bad and 0:15:43.520 --> 0:15:46.200 you'll feel bad for maybe ten minutes or so, and 0:15:46.240 --> 0:15:50.000 then you'll drink some water. You'll get over it. And 0:15:50.600 --> 0:15:53.320 usually within a day or so, after using the raw 0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:56.920 garlic on an empty stomach, not eating for many hours, 0:15:57.880 --> 0:16:00.680 you will end up the guard are like, well, we'll 0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:04.160 knock out the infection and you'll you'll feel great within 0:16:04.520 --> 0:16:07.600 within in a day. That's usually how that has worked 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:10.040 for me. But the side effects on no one want 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:12.520 to kiss you. Uh, No one wonn't want to be 0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:14.560 around you. But most people hate the smell of garlic. 0:16:14.640 --> 0:16:17.080 I like the smell of garlic, so it wouldn't bother me, 0:16:17.120 --> 0:16:19.720 but most people hate it. And so those are the 0:16:19.720 --> 0:16:23.480 side effects. And and the burning of your gums. I 0:16:23.480 --> 0:16:28.160 mean again, the garlic is so pungent, it's so powerful 0:16:29.400 --> 0:16:32.240 that when you suck on it like a candy, it's 0:16:32.360 --> 0:16:34.680 burning your gums. So that's a sign that it's going 0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:40.640 to perfection out. I got enough detailed guess going on 0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:43.040 the garlic therapy, I think, I mean it was a 0:16:43.080 --> 0:16:48.280 perfect transition from talking about chewing tobacco. Yeah, yeah, exactly 0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:55.440 exactly Carlos, who says the depressed stro fan in Houston, Texas, 0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:59.960 Bang Bang. Last week, you and Cooper we're talking about edibles, 0:17:00.440 --> 0:17:03.920 and Coop said that edibles are way stronger than weed, 0:17:04.840 --> 0:17:07.240 and I can confirm that that is true. I just 0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:10.800 want to say that it's your fault, he said, Carlos, 0:17:10.800 --> 0:17:15.119 your fault that my high was ruined. Carlos says, I 0:17:15.160 --> 0:17:18.000 got so high that day. How high was he? He 0:17:18.000 --> 0:17:21.159 says Guescon that he forgot to run an import and 0:17:21.280 --> 0:17:25.600 errand and he kept replaying in his head the public 0:17:25.680 --> 0:17:29.119 service announcement that we do on the show Drive High 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:33.760 get a d u I. He says, I almost went 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:37.399 into a panic attack because because of that, and my 0:17:37.440 --> 0:17:41.360 wife couldn't stop laughing at me. So thank you for 0:17:41.400 --> 0:17:46.240 getting me into an almost panic attack, says Gascon. When 0:17:46.280 --> 0:17:48.359 will you be filling in on the overnight show so 0:17:48.440 --> 0:17:51.720 you can claim your Benny Award for filling of the 0:17:51.840 --> 0:17:57.359 year man, Carlos, I did that earlier this year. Didn't 0:17:57.359 --> 0:18:01.840 get any award for that last year. Unfortunate. Really it's 0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:04.040 very competitive that Jonas is out of the running now, 0:18:04.040 --> 0:18:05.760 so you don't have to worry about Jonas. Jonas is 0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:09.359 no longer eligible for filling of the year on the show, 0:18:10.320 --> 0:18:13.160 so right now, Danny g who else has been on 0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:19.080 their wreck it? Ralph made an appearance locally docally do 0:18:20.160 --> 0:18:24.919 ned Flanders made an appearance. Uh, tryna think who else are? Ilo? 0:18:25.840 --> 0:18:28.960 Ilo was on there. He did a good job back 0:18:28.960 --> 0:18:31.280 in the day. But I love the fact, Carlos that 0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:35.960 that p S A resonated with you. That's good. It's good. 0:18:35.960 --> 0:18:38.679 That should have let the people that buy the the 0:18:38.680 --> 0:18:41.400 p S a time. The government should know that that's 0:18:41.440 --> 0:18:43.919 actually worked. The only one that stuck out to me 0:18:44.000 --> 0:18:48.439 was the Cougar Love one. The cougars are coming, The 0:18:48.520 --> 0:18:54.159 cougars are coming. The cougars are coming. Cougar Uh, I 0:18:54.200 --> 0:18:55.800 think it was it was it Cougar Life? Was that 0:18:55.960 --> 0:18:58.600 it or something like that? And it was it was awesome, 0:18:58.800 --> 0:19:04.160 great advertising. Uh. Dr abdul Kader writes, and he says, 0:19:04.240 --> 0:19:06.960 I have been an on and off listener to the 0:19:07.080 --> 0:19:10.639 Mallard Radio show via podcast Living in the East makes 0:19:10.760 --> 0:19:14.960 listening live not quite healthy, The doctor says, let me 0:19:15.000 --> 0:19:18.840 cut to the shase. I discovered the Fifth Hour podcast 0:19:18.960 --> 0:19:21.600 just last week. How about that the doc found us 0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:25.399 last week. Thank you for ben this morning's episodes, he 0:19:25.880 --> 0:19:28.320 he emailed me right after the episode. The episode with 0:19:28.480 --> 0:19:33.200 David Gascon tickled me a lot, he said, because you, guys, 0:19:33.400 --> 0:19:36.879 delved into the insane times we live in. It appears 0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:41.639 that most people blind blindly bought into several agenda driven 0:19:41.680 --> 0:19:47.920 studies which masquerade as scientific findings, says the COVID nineteen 0:19:48.000 --> 0:19:52.280 Shenanigans and Wokerism. So he says wokers, and I say 0:19:52.320 --> 0:19:57.040 the wocarate wocarate in the media, and he says cyber 0:19:57.160 --> 0:20:02.199 thugs act as the smelling salts to aken some of us. Uh. 0:20:02.600 --> 0:20:05.920 Is a great job, guys, So the doc a new 0:20:06.040 --> 0:20:09.879 fan of the Fifth Hour Podcast and we are here 0:20:09.920 --> 0:20:16.879 for you all weekend long Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I 0:20:16.960 --> 0:20:19.080 think there's a little bit of guilt when it comes 0:20:19.119 --> 0:20:23.040 to the sensory overlord from overload with what we get 0:20:23.320 --> 0:20:25.320 And don't you feel like that way in the sports world, 0:20:25.560 --> 0:20:27.640 like there's just so much content out there, at least 0:20:27.840 --> 0:20:30.720 during the NFL season, when it's Major League Baseball, the Dodges, 0:20:30.920 --> 0:20:33.520 some of there's nothing to chew on, But in the 0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:36.000 following in the winter, there's a lot of informations. I 0:20:36.000 --> 0:20:42.320 feel like we get that with this topic with COVID. Yeah, 0:20:42.520 --> 0:20:46.800 science and yeah. Well, the biggest problem is that people 0:20:46.800 --> 0:20:49.760 put too much stock in social media. That's the biggest problem. 0:20:49.840 --> 0:20:53.560 And we pointed out before it's one to two percent 0:20:53.720 --> 0:20:56.680 of the general population the United States is contributing content 0:20:57.440 --> 0:20:59.840 and most are not, and most aren't even on there. 0:21:00.480 --> 0:21:06.880 So but media companies and even political figures, now, uh, 0:21:07.280 --> 0:21:11.280 that's the almighty all powerful, that's the public square for 0:21:12.040 --> 0:21:15.600 deciding what stuff is that, but it it leans politically 0:21:15.640 --> 0:21:20.240 one direction. It also is much younger than the people 0:21:20.280 --> 0:21:24.399 actually are on there, and it's easily distorted. As I 0:21:24.520 --> 0:21:26.240 like to say, it's like the matrix, right, you don't 0:21:26.280 --> 0:21:28.879 know it's real, what's fake. You don't know what's bots, 0:21:28.960 --> 0:21:32.879 what's not there are what was that thing on on 0:21:32.960 --> 0:21:37.280 Instagram that there are so many body accounts on Like, 0:21:37.320 --> 0:21:39.600 there's so many people that have a million followers or 0:21:39.600 --> 0:21:42.320 whatever on Instagram. I remember reading this, I forget the 0:21:42.359 --> 0:21:45.080 exact number. So I'm talking out of my ask right now. 0:21:45.080 --> 0:21:47.920 But there's so many people that have a million followers 0:21:48.000 --> 0:21:51.000 on Instagram because they bought followers. It's like more than 0:21:51.040 --> 0:21:54.639 are actually on the more than the real legitimate users 0:21:54.640 --> 0:21:57.119 Instagram has. But they don't get rid of those bots 0:21:57.200 --> 0:22:00.959 because people use the website. So they don't care if 0:22:01.000 --> 0:22:04.560 you've got fake followers or not. It doesn't matter. And 0:22:04.640 --> 0:22:07.240 Twitter talks. Twitter talks a good game about that, but 0:22:07.280 --> 0:22:09.040 they don't really care about it either. They don't clean 0:22:09.040 --> 0:22:12.639 it up. You know, how how many of Lebron James 0:22:12.680 --> 0:22:15.639 followers are legit and how many of the what he 0:22:15.680 --> 0:22:18.119 got twenty million followers or something, and how many of 0:22:18.160 --> 0:22:22.760 those are just bodycounts. I have no idea. I'm sure 0:22:22.800 --> 0:22:27.800 it's not it's not legit. I know that it's probably not, 0:22:29.040 --> 0:22:31.639 you know, real or fake. You know, it's somewhere in 0:22:31.640 --> 0:22:36.520 the middle. Anyway, A Cliff from Nashville writes in He says, Ben, 0:22:36.640 --> 0:22:38.880 just to prove we were at the resort, this guy 0:22:38.880 --> 0:22:40.480 an email member, He said he was at the resort 0:22:40.560 --> 0:22:43.280 and he he had the the gangster guy that was 0:22:43.320 --> 0:22:44.840 going to give him a hard time and all that, 0:22:45.040 --> 0:22:48.520 and they pondered over the show. He sent me here. 0:22:48.560 --> 0:22:53.359 He says. The tattooed, cheating astro fan was there celebrating 0:22:53.400 --> 0:22:57.200 his daughter's fifteen birthday sause apparently it's a huge deal 0:22:57.960 --> 0:23:02.200 for young Catholic girls, cost as much as a wedding. 0:23:02.320 --> 0:23:06.280 He said, all right, you know anything about this gas gun? 0:23:08.760 --> 0:23:13.440 Is it Catholic or is it in the Hispanic community? 0:23:15.160 --> 0:23:18.240 I don't know. I'm not sure. The fifteen year old 0:23:19.320 --> 0:23:24.119 birthday party for a for a lady? Oh yeah, I 0:23:24.119 --> 0:23:29.639 think that's yes, yes, incinera Is that what they call it? 0:23:31.760 --> 0:23:35.840 All right in Latin America? Right? Yeah? All right, yeah, 0:23:35.880 --> 0:23:38.639 like the you know us, the Jews, we have the 0:23:38.640 --> 0:23:44.600
