1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:01,440
Speaker 1: Kabooms.

2
00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 2: If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes

3
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 2: of the old republic, a sol fashion of fairness. He

5
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the

6
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:17,480
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse.

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: Wow.

8
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 2: The Clearinghouse of Hot takes break free for something special.

9
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 2: The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now.

10
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,160
Speaker 1: In the air everywhere.

11
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 3: The Fifth Hour with Me, Ben Mahler and Danny g

12
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 3: Happy Saturday. As we are hanging out together here the

13
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 3: twenty sixth day of April, and yet another day of

14
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 3: the NFL Draft. And I Am not going to sit

15
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 3: here and pretend like I was watching every eye on

16
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 3: my phone, Danny the NFL yesterday, the Draft. I was

17
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 3: focused on other things, but I would go check. I

18
00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 3: wasn't sitting on the edge of my seat watching the draft.

19
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 1: I did have it on my phone, and I would.

20
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 3: I would look over every like ten minutes or so,

21
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 3: and I like the Rams had. They didn't even have

22
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 3: a pick in the first round because they trade it

23
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 3: out of the first round, which I'm fine with. I

24
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 3: don't care because I want to see that they picked,

25
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 3: and so they picked like fourteenth in the second round,

26
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 3: so I had to keep checking back and all that.

27
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 3: But I was not hanging on the edge of my

28
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 3: seat for every single pick in the second round. So

29
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 3: I'm proud of myself that I actually have things going on.

30
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 3: I've got stuff going on.

31
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I was just there locked

32
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: in on everything.

33
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 4: You got cookies to bake.

34
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm bet Benny Crocker, not Betty Crocker. I'm Benny Crocker.

35
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 3: So I got things to do. Man.

36
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 4: I Actually I pay too much.

37
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 5: We've talked about this in past years, but I'm one

38
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 5: of the weirdos who watches pretty much every minute of

39
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 5: not later, not like the sixth, seventh rounds, but you know,

40
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 5: I would say one through four and even the start

41
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 5: of five. I pay attention. Why because my favorite team

42
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 5: is the Raiders. This is our super Bowl annually, this

43
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 5: is our super Bowl.

44
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: I got you.

45
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 3: I mean, I come from FM picks Land, you know,

46
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 3: the Rams. And also I'm just bitter because I've been

47
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 3: sold to Billy Goods on so many draft picks over

48
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 3: the years that this guy's the next great you know whatever,

49
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 3: it's a whole cottage thing, and I just have been

50
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 3: so turned off by those prognostications over the years that

51
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 3: it's like, I know it's good for the show, and

52
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 3: I do look for storylines to talk about, and obviously

53
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 3: there's some things in the second and third round that

54
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 3: will be good talk radio. In the olden days when

55
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 3: we were kids, the NFL's draft would still be going

56
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 3: on if they if they had continued to spread this

57
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 3: thing out, because when I was little, I think the

58
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 3: draft was like thirteen rounds the NFL draft, And of course,

59
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 3: obviously now.

60
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: They've cut that back a lot.

61
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 5: By the way, is Shaudor Sanders still inside his private

62
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 5: club at the.

63
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 1: Green Green Bay Green Room.

64
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 5: Did he have a three day deal with the sound

65
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 5: man that they gave him for his concert in there?

66
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah.

67
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 3: Let me point out though that the Shudhar Sanders, if

68
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 3: Southwest Airlines brings back that those want to get away commercials,

69
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 3: that would be the one to get away moment for

70
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 3: sus Oh my god, holy craft.

71
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 5: Do you know when weeke they showed a camera on

72
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 5: him and he was just on a field throwing a

73
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 5: football around, and they're like, there he is throwing a

74
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 5: football around. Just waiting to be drafted. I don't know

75
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 5: what's worse, hanging out in a green room or out

76
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 5: on a field throwing a football around like looking like

77
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 5: Charlie Brown.

78
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: Yeah.

79
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 3: Well, the fall of Shooter Sands. We used to talk

80
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 3: about how this guy fell and that guy fell.

81
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 5: The fact that he did not get picked in the

82
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 5: second or third round is just crazy.

83
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 3: For the rest of our lives, probably, Danny, if a

84
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 3: quarterback falls in the draft, they'd be like, what could

85
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 3: always be worse? You could have been Shudar Sanders. You know,

86
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 3: it could always be worse.

87
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: And it's going.

88
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 3: To be like that because to think that he was

89
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 3: projected two months ago being a top five pick in

90
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 3: the draft and what's happened this weekend is just just

91
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 3: absolutely nuts. By the way, it is National Pretzel Day today,

92
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 3: so celebrate appropriately, Danny.

93

Speaker 1: National Pretzel Day today.

94
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 5: That's my go to at a sporting event. If they

Speaker 5: have the melted nacho cheese that you can the cup

96
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 5: of cheese you can get on the side with the

Speaker 3: This is not just some two bit weekend podcast. No,

103
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 3: the annual worth of the pretzel industry in the United States.

104
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 3: You want me to give it to your give you

105
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 3: the number you want to guess.

106
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: It's in the millions.

107
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 3: How much is the pretzel industry worth in the United States.

108
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 4: I'm going to say two hundred and thirty two million dollars.

109
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 3: All right, fine, answer, you did not go over, so

110
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 3: you do win the showcase. The answer five hundred and

111
00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 3: fifty million dollar business an annual worth in the pres

112
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 3: that's an industry.

113
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 1: That's a lot of dough. Damn, that's dough and on average.

114
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 3: Now, keep in mind not everyone does eat pretzels, but

115
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 3: the average consumption in pounds of pretzels by your average

116
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 3: American per year, so yeah, we're average. How many pounds

117
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 3: of pretzels, give or take will the average American eat

118
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 3: per year?

119
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 4: Average?

120
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 3: Are pretzel fun facts of the fifth hour.

121
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:35,039
Speaker 5: I'm going to say each American probably ten pounds. No,

122
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 5: you have gone over, Danny. You do not mean I'm

123
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 5: thinking of myself at sporting events.

124
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, No, it's at one point five.

125
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 4: That's wimpy, that's very wimpy.

126
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 3: Hold on, let's do some malormath on this whole mother sec.

127
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 3: Let's see here, what is the what is the population

128
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,919
Speaker 3: in America? What are we like three hundred and thirty

129
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 3: million or something like that?

130
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: Is that? Am I?

131
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 4: Right? I guess I should have checked that into account.

132
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, so let's let's do the math here.

133
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 3: So how many If it's three hundred thirty, let's do

134
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 3: three three you're listening to live math coverage now on

135
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:18,359
Speaker 3: the podcast, three hundred million, and then you got one

136
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 3: point five.

137
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 4: Not a numbers guy, but.

138
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: But that doesn't seem to add up. Well, No, three

139
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: hundred million, and but one point five.

140
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 3: You just have to do the one point five times

141
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 3: three hundred million, right.

142
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be the math?

143
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 4: Carry the one?

144
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: Let's see you.

145
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 3: I'll just do one point five times three hundred Yeah,

146
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 3: four hundred and fifty. So then you extrapolate that and

147
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 3: it's a lot. The answer is a lot. It's a

148
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 3: lot of dough. Anyway, Joy Pretzel Day, Enjoy Pretzel Day.

Speaker 3: and last minute packed up the Malamobile and headed to

162
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 3: Sin City for a get together at the it was

163
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 3: last Saturday.

164
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: Now we drove, make made the trip we always drive.

165
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 3: We never flied to Vegas and so went hypersonic speed

166
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 3: through Apple Valley, Barstow, went past Zazi's Road or Isaac's

167
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 3: Road or they call it through Baker said hello to

168
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 3: the mad Greek, Thearren. Baker kept going over to Prim,

169
00:07:58,280 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 3: very depressing Whiskey Feeds.

170
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 4: I was gonna say everything is closing.

171
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, there's only one hotel left in Prim. There's

172
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 3: that big gas station on one side, there's a truck

173
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 3: stop gas station on the other near Whiskey Pets. And

174
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 3: then there's one hotel, Buffalo Bills. I think that's the

175
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 3: only one left. The mall's pretty much gone. There's a

176
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 3: couple of scattered restaurants.

177
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 4: It is.

178
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a ghost town. That's wild.

179
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 3: Anyway, So we go through there and it finally got

180
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 3: to Vegas and a lot of traffic around the desk Star.

181
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 3: We were unaware that last weekend was WrestleMania and it

182
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 3: was popping. It was massively the wave of humanity that

183
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 3: had ascended in Vegas.

184
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 5: I saw the video when it led out and people

185
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 5: were just crammed like sardines, and it reminded me of

186
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 5: our recent past episode where we were talking about being claustrophobic.

187
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, it was It was wild. I

188
00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: didn't know what was going on.

189
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 3: Bad job by me, I'm not, you know, and watching

190
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,079
Speaker 3: wrestling every week and all that. I did get a

191
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,559
Speaker 3: lot of messages from people that were very excited, fans

192
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 3: of the Malad militia that are like, hey, Russep's back,

193
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,439
Speaker 3: you know, And I guess he made his debut on

194
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,959
Speaker 3: his return actually on Monday night raw, I guess, but it.

195
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: Wasn't a wresmating.

196
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 3: But anyway, I was there for wrestlming and he I

197
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 3: was not there for Wrestlmening it was going on. So

198
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 3: I went to meet my cousin from New York and

199
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 3: then some other relatives scattered around the West on my

200
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 3: cousin's side of the things. They showed up, so we

201
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 3: were all hanging out and then we pretty much just

202
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 3: did that and we went to one of my favorite

203
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,199
Speaker 3: pizza places is over in Henderson. So we were over

204
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 3: in Henderson and ate some delicious pizza, fried cheese and

205
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 3: just just wonderful, and took off from there and we

206
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 3: went to a tiki bar, because there's a bunch of

207
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 3: tiki bars, and this place in Vegas it was so cool,

208
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 3: little crappy like it was. I'm trying to describe it.

209
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 3: It's like your typical suburban. It's a mall, not a mall,

210
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,559
Speaker 3: you know, the strip mall. I guess got a strip mall. Yeah,

211
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 3: strip mall, that's the word I was looking for. So

212
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,440
Speaker 3: it's a strip mall and there's nothing special about it.

213
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 3: And like everything, it's like we're there like one in

214
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 3: the morning and everything's open. Place is packed and the

215
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:21,680
Speaker 3: coolest thing. We got out of there went to the

216
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 3: Tiki bark is. My wife likes going to those things,

217
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 3: and so we.

218
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: Get out across the street they are we hear this.

219
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 3: Like that it's a tire repair shop, twenty four hour

220
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 3: tire repair shop.

221
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,839
Speaker 1: It's like two in the morning, three in the.

222
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 3: Morning, and people are getting their tires were replaced at

Speaker 3: this this twenty four hour tire shop. As while like,

224
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,679
Speaker 3: that's the way to do it. Man, that's my kind

Speaker 3: of schedule there. That's how they roll in Vega. You

228
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 3: So we had We had a good time. It was

229
00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 3: a short trip. Got a little stomach issue on the

230
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,079
Speaker 3: way back, so unfortunately the wife had to drive back.

231
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 3: But I was good by the time we got back.

232
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 3: So there was that. I did not see any mountain

233
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 3: lions on my way back. I drove through Death Valley

234
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 3: in the same strip obviously that we took to get

235
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 3: to Vegas.

236
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 1: I didn't see any. But we we did have a

237
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: fun trip back and right back to work.

238
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 3: Immediately when you got back to La So we didn't

239
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 3: have much time much downtime with this podcast and everything

240
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 3: going on now.

241
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 5: I actually just sent you two text messages that you're

242
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 5: going to receive right now.

243
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm going to look you.

244
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 5: I would like to alert all the affiliates down the

245
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 5: line that Ben is looking at his cellular device.

246
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 1: Oh okay, I'm looking right now.

247
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 5: Yes, the world's most expensive and largest wildlife crossing in

248
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 5: the world. Ben one hundred million dollars well spent by

249
00:11:55,720 --> 00:12:00,080
Speaker 5: taxpayers money and the Annenberg family. And if you see

250
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,319
Speaker 5: the picture I took as I was crossing underneath of

251
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 5: it the other day to go to the network, you

252
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 5: see that their name is on it. Now, so that's

253
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 5: what how many I'm not sure what part of the

254
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 5: cost they covered, but they got their name. They got

255
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,559
Speaker 5: their name on the damn thing. Though it says now

256
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 5: Ironnberg Wildlife crossing.

257
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:21,679
Speaker 1: Are humans allowed to use it?

258
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 3: Like? What do they do? Do they kill a human?

259
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 3: If a human being crosses over it?

260
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: Do they shoot them? Is that because that's for the wildlife?

261
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 4: Why not?

262
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 1: Sure?

263
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 5: It says grand opening coming in twenty twenty six, So

264
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 5: does that mean like all the animals are gonna line

265
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 5: up with fanfare and.

266
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 3: It's gonna be It's gonna be like Noah's ark. They're

267
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 3: gonna have every animal cross at the same time.

268
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 5: When I read about them and I read about the

269
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 5: grand opening, that's what I pictured. Now this article from

270
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 5: ABC seven in Los Angeles, it says first layer of

271
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 5: soil was laid down for the wildlife crossing over the

272
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 5: one on one freeway. You and I spoke about this

273
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 5: when the fires were happening here. When when this turns

274
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 5: into a fire hazard because obviously, look at all those

275
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 5: lanes of traffic in both directions. It's really hard for

276
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 5: fire to cross a freeway with that many lanes from

277
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 5: one side to the other. But now with this soil

278
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 5: and grass on top of what happens when that grass

279
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 5: dries out on top of the wildlife crossing.

280
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:25,439
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what's going to happen. First of all,

281
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,319
Speaker 1: though the fire is going to spread.

282
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 3: Secondly, some attorneys will be running commercials on radio where

283
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 3: you're damaged by the fire that crossed over the wildfire bridge. We'll,

284
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 3: you know, contact us, will sue the Innenburg group or whoever.

285
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:44,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, this is the other dude, I've noticed it.

286
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 3: I saw a story about this too the other day,

287
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 3: and the comments of people that think they're saving the world.

288
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: It's wild to me.

289
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 3: It is it is next level, like they are so

290
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 3: convinced that this is the way to do it. Uh,

291
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 3: and it just I don't know, I don't get that mindset,

292
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 3: but it's not me. It just seems very bizarre to me.

293
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 3: But how many homeless people do you think could sleep

294
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 3: up there?

295
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 4: What do we look at it?

296
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 3: You can fit a lot of tents right, they got water,

297
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 3: they could go to the swing, they could swim there.

298
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 3: They could use one of the little ponds for swimming.

299
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 3: The other one they could use as a bathroom.

300
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 5: Have you ever been to Calabasas slash Agora Hills, California.

301
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 5: There are no homeless people in those towns. The cut

302
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 5: off line is Woodland Hills and they should.

303
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: We should get some buses go down to skid Row.

304
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: We can drive them up and then home.

305
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 5: Man that if you think about it, though, what a

306
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 5: sly place that would be to set up camp right

307
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 5: above the freeway there you know you're you're not far

308
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 5: from the off ramp. You could hold your sign there

309
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 5: on the off ramp and then go back. There's there's

310
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 5: some utility stairs on both sides of the Wild Cross

311
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 5: wildlife crossing, so you probably could set up camp up there.

312
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 5: But I think what's going to happen is it's going

313
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 5: to be a shit show. And I don't wish this

314
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 5: to happen. I don't want this to happen. But if

315
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 5: we get another fire like we had recently just a

316
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 5: few months back, and it crosses that bridge, that's gonna

317
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 5: be a big issue because right now, there are no

318
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 5: freeway overpasses right there for fire to jump.

319
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 4: They just made one.

320
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, well they'll say it would have happened anyway, it

321
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 3: wasn't the bridge.

322
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 5: You know, they'll come up with some that's bullshit because

323
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 5: there's no there's not even any cement crossings right now.

324
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 5: They put a grass crossing, Well you're gonna say, what

325
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 5: three to four mountain lions per year? But you could

326
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 5: possibly endanger how many houses with a wildfire. I just

327
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 5: I look into my crystal ball and I think this

328
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 5: could be a major issue down the road.

329
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 3: Well, you just don't care about skunks that want to

330
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 3: cross the road, Okay, that's your problem.

331
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is going to help endless squirrels and the owls.

332
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 5: This is going to totally hook the owls up because

333
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 5: you know, they can't figgure out how to fly over

334
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 5: the freeway so they can just walk across.

335
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, like penguins.

336
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 1: Oh, I hear you, man, we did have a strike.

337
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 3: If you were listening to the Overnight Show this week,

338
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 3: some of you have sent me messages on that. We

339
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 3: don't need to actually break that down too much, but

340
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 3: I got well, I guess we'll talk about it here.

341
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 3: I'm not going to answer all the emails. And there

342
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:22,480
Speaker 3: were like three of them, I say a lot, there

343
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 3: were three. So Blind Scott decided he was protesting, he

344
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 3: was going on strike, and then he recruited Supermarket Steve,

345
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 3: of all people, to go on strike. Yeah, so these

346
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 3: two jackasses, these jackwagons, decided to go on strike from

347
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 3: the show. Of course, it lasted all of one day,

348
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 3: Danny one day, and it was one phone call by

349
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 3: Blind Scott saying strike, strike, strike, Strike, strike over and

350
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 3: strike strike over and over and over and over and

351
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 3: over and over and over all that nonsense. And then

352
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 3: super Marike Steve complaining because of Mike the Leprechaun and

353
00:16:58,480 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 3: some other issues that he had.

354
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 1: And it always.

355
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 3: Fascinates me, Dan. We've talked about this before. It is

356
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 3: a radio show. It is not an airport. You do

357
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 3: not need to announce your departure. There's no need to

358
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,919
Speaker 3: announce your departure. And it's just these guys needing attention, right,

359
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 3: they're just their attention starved.

360
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: To make attention.

361
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 3: This is their way to do it, and it's like

362
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 3: a reality show and that's their grand finale.

363
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: But it's not really their grand finale because.

364
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 3: Hey, they're like, we just want you to know that

365
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 3: we're here, and we're not getting enough attention. So it's like,

366
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 3: come on, it strikes on it. Who strikes on a

367
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 3: radio show.

368
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: It's so stupid.

369
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,640
Speaker 3: These guys that complain, like some of you complain about

370
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 3: certain people to call the show, Danny.

371
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 1: These guys that call in are on for what two minutes?

372
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:46,360
Speaker 1: It's two minutes.

373
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 3: It's nothing. It's a grain of sand on the beach.

374
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 3: It's absolutely nothing. To get all worked up into it

375
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 3: a lad about. I don't understand. It's like, not everyone

376
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 3: that calls the show is a good caller. In fact,

377
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,479
Speaker 3: most of the people that call the show are not.

378
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 3: We all understand that there's no need to h to

379
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 3: jump up and down and scream and shout and all that.

380
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:12,919
Speaker 1: Come on I'm a doctor.

381
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 3: Knock it off, buccaroo, Okay, it just stop stop stopping,

382
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 3: stopp yes anyway, Uh.

383
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 4: Not everybody is Genie.

384
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 3: No, there's you know, Genie's in all the time. I

385
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 3: wish I'd put Geenie on the air more. Back in

386
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 3: the day, I got to know were there people who

387
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 3: are upset with Genie too? People would send me messages.

388
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 3: Was she on so much? She's not in your demo,

389
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 3: she's you know, you're not supposed to get older women

390
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 3: to call the show. We're trying to get young dudes.

391
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 3: What's wrong with you? I don't want to hear what

392
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 3: she has to say. She didn't even talk about sports. Yeah,

393
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 3: I know, she doesn't talk about sports. That's the beauty

394
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 3: of her phone calls. She doesn't talk about sports. Okay,

395
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,919
Speaker 3: she's not at their mining data to come up with

396
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 3: some statistic.

397
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 1: By the way, the other day, I I.

398
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 3: Don't listen to a lot of sports radio, and I

399
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,639
Speaker 3: happen to be listening to something on the app and

400
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,919
Speaker 3: then it ended up you know how you hit the

401
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 3: wrong button and it ends up on a It was

402
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,440
Speaker 3: a local sports station that popped up.

403
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 1: I don't even know how that happened on the iHeart app.

404
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,119
Speaker 3: I was listening to something else and it popped up

405
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 3: local station some listening, and it was some dude talking

406
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 3: baseball and he was just giving like analytics and ganny.

407
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: You know that.

408
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 3: Sounded like I wanted to take a sharp object and

409
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 3: poke my ears out listening to this moron.

410
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 1: Numbers are fine and all that.

411
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:43,199
Speaker 3: But you cannot just sit there and read off a

412
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 3: bunch of percentages and data projected probabilities, and I mean.

413
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: It's just it's terrible. It is so bad.

414
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 3: And this I don't even know who the person was,

415
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 3: and I only listened for like forty five seconds, and

416
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 3: it was so terrifically terrible.

417
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 1: Just like you cannot you can't do it.

418
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 3: You can't just read a bunch of metrics or whatever

419
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,239
Speaker 3: nonsense mumbo jumbo you have.

420
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:10,679
Speaker 1: No it's a bad listen.

421
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 5: I don't even like baseball talk on the radio, to

422
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 5: be honest with you. Not network talk on AM five

423
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,360
Speaker 5: seventy LA sports when you fill in there. I get

424
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 5: it in the local affiliates all across the country talk

425
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 5: away with your local baseball team, but nationally to try

426
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,639
Speaker 5: to talk baseball really really difficult.

427
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: You can do it. But you can only do it

428
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 1: if it if it.

429
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 3: Has broad appeal, if it's not narrow, like if there's

430
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:40,360
Speaker 3: a story that crosses over apps.

431
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 5: Like the Sure But yeah, right, that's a good example.

432
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 5: But how many of those stories do we get in

433
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:48,119
Speaker 5: a baseball season?

434
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: Well that's the issue.

435
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 3: Rob Manfraud the commissioner, He's complained about this. He was

436
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,439
Speaker 3: very upset with ESPN and they'll I've heard they're going

437
00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 3: to get another deal with the ESPN Baseball, but that's

438
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,639
Speaker 3: a different they don't have one. Now that's a different conversation.

439
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:07,679
Speaker 3: But Manford was upset because the people over there that

440
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 3: are gas bags, like Steven A who used to work

441
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 3: at our place, and these other morons. They don't talk baseball.

442
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 3: They talked basketball, but basketball. I had a friend of

443
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:22,440
Speaker 3: mine who's worked in media for thirty years. He said, Ben,

444
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,959
Speaker 3: why don't they just not play the NBA games? They

445
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 3: just give us enough to talk about. We don't even

446
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 3: need the games to talk about. We'll just talk about

447
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 3: this stuff off the court. We don't even need the games.

448
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,920
Speaker 3: Why do they play the games? And his whole point

449
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 3: was it's so great because of the drama, because of

450
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,679
Speaker 3: the behind the scenes stuff that the games and I

451
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 3: do break down some of these playoff games.

452
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:41,680
Speaker 1: I have been doing a lot of that, much to.

453
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:46,439
Speaker 3: The disconnect of some people who are upset anytime I

454
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 3: talk about it, and well, you're talking about NBA playoff games.

455
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 3: It's not the conference finals yet and all that stuff.

456
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:56,119
Speaker 3: But the NBA is, for what we do amazing. In

457
00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 3: terms of conversation, it's great. It's it's the Greek tragedy

458
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 3: over here. It's a Shakespearean drama.

459
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 1: It's it's Anthony Edwards grabbing his dick.

460
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 6: Announcing how big his sausages to the world, and it's just, oh,

461
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,640
Speaker 6: man is outstanding.

462
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,439
Speaker 3: I wanted to thank to you the listener, and I

463
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 3: forget the name. Somebody sent us these giant cookies. There's

464
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 3: a cookie shop in Nashville. We did trade. I made

465
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 3: a trade. I was given the Elvis Cookie, which is

466
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 3: a banana cream pie type cookie thing.

467
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 1: I traded that. I made a trade with the Coop.

468
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,160
Speaker 3: I picked up in the trade the Cookie Monster, which

469
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 3: is a blue cookie. It's so big it had like

470
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 3: four oreos stuffed in the middle. So I acquired the

471
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 3: Cookie Monster cookies. I got the Lemon cookie in the deal.

472
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 3: I'm happy with the deal. I went for quantity over quality,

473
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,920
Speaker 3: and these things are so ridiculous the mistake I made,

474
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 3: and these are really good cookies, and I want to think,

475
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,159
Speaker 3: and I don't off the top of my head, I

476
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 3: don't remember exactly the name. I apologize in advance. It's

477
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 3: bad job by me. But in my defense, Lorraine actually

478
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 3: opened the box. I didn't even open the box, so

479
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 3: I didn't see the name. She told me the name

480
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:20,400
Speaker 3: one time.

481
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 1: That was it.

482
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,400
Speaker 3: So I opened the cookies up and they had how

483
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:27,479
Speaker 3: many calories were on the cookie? Okay, so there's two

484
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,919
Speaker 3: things about this that pissed me off. The first is

485
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 3: that I saw how many calaries were on the cookie.

486
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,919
Speaker 5: The second is that's like, that's like seeing the debit

487
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 5: card information from your wife exactly exactly.

488
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,120
Speaker 3: You just things you don't need to know. You actually, well,

489
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:45,680
Speaker 3: you do need to know, but you don't.

490
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 1: Want to know. It was that type of situation.

491
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 3: So I saw how many calories of the cookies were

492
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 3: and then that pissed me off. And then the other

493
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 3: thing was, now, this is a cookie and I don't

494
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,880
Speaker 3: have a photo to send you, Dandy, but just imagine

495
00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 3: the palm of your hand.

496
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:00,959
Speaker 5: Oh no, no, I saw them in the studio. There

497
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 5: was one left behind in the studio and Covino and

498
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 5: Rich were breaking it into parts. One cookie fed the

499
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 5: entire crew. Yes, yes, exactly. It is a massive It's

500
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 5: like the size of your palm times ten. So that

501
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 5: they say that cookie has six six servings in that

502
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 5: one cookie.

503
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 1: How many people are gonna eat that in six servings?

504
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Right then?

505
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 3: And then the one and every one of these things

506
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 3: was different. But the cook I think it averaged one

507
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:39,359
Speaker 3: hundred and twenty five Let.

508
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 4: Me do the matho.

509
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was one hundred and twenty five calories per serving,

510
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,399
Speaker 3: So there's six servings, so it's like seven it was

511
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 3: almost eight hundred calories I think per cookie. This sounds like,

512
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,120
Speaker 3: oh man, and I don't count calories. I eat once

513
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 3: a day, so I could probably be fine doing it

514
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 3: and all that.

515
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 1: It's just once, you know.

516
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 3: It's like I could have had a big mac and

517
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 3: fries or cookie and I was like, whoa, what is

518
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 3: up with that?

519
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:03,919
Speaker 1: All?

520
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 5: Right?

521
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:07,960

525
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,600

Speaker 3: on for all Sason.

529
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 5: He definitely was paid by the Sanders family. That was awkward.

530
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: They gave him some nil money.

531
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was a little much, A little much anyway.

532
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 3: The phrase marching in chowder society or chowder and marching

533
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:52,040
Speaker 3: society originated way back in the eighteen hundred and nineteenth century,

534
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 3: and it was used for fraternal groups and social groups.

535
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 3: And there was the cherry Field Chowder Society founded in

536

00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 1: It became later the.

539
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:15,440
Speaker 3: Cherry Field Chowder and Marching Society in the eighteen seventies.

540
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 3: And they had a band, they had secret bylaws.

541
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 1: It was like a secret society. They had a special.

542
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 3: Flag, all that crap, and it was like a social club.

543
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 3: There was also the East Lawn Chowder and Marching Society, which.

544
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: Formed in nineteen oh nine.

545
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 3: That was at the University of Virginia, Go Calves Go

546
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,919
Speaker 3: and they had a friendly rivalry with the West Lawn group.

547
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 3: And that lasted from the nineteen o nine to nineteen

548
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:52,360
Speaker 3: to the nineteen fifties. Now the phrase became even more widespread.

549
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:56,880
Speaker 3: It was a There was a political fraternity founded in

550
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:02,919
Speaker 3: nineteen forty nine by a congressman named Richard Nixon. I

551
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 3: wonder what happened to him? I wonder what happened to

552
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 3: Richard Nixon? And so that spread it a little further.

553
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 3: The term also appeared in pop culture. There was a

554
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 3: comic strip, a comic strip Barnaby in the nineteen forties.

555
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 3: There were some other cartoons that featured it. But the

556
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 3: thing that caught me when I was doing my main

557
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 3: research on this that the phrase was popularized by a

558
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 3: sportscaster who had national reach and is credited with continuing

559
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 3: to spread marching in shadow society. That sportscaster Danny Vin Scully.

560
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 3: It was popularized by Vin Scully on NBC when he

561
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,360
Speaker 3: was doing the Game of the Week, and he did

562
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 3: football on NBC as well, and he would refer to

563
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 3: a player who had a lot of supporters. He'd be

564
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 3: like the Marching and Chowders Society for Willie Mays, the

565
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:07,480
Speaker 3: Great Vince Scully, Yeah, Vin, Yeah, So that's that's pretty cool.

566
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,920
Speaker 3: So there you go the phrase of the week, Marching

567
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 3: and Chowder Society.

568
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 1: Whoa the rally dowel? And if we have a sombrero,

569
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: throw it in the sky.
