<v Speaker 2>a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

<v Speaker 3>The Fifth Hour with Me, Ben Mahler and Danny g

0:00:35.520 --> 0:00:39.080
<v Speaker 3>Happy Saturday. As we are hanging out together here the

0:00:39.120 --> 0:00:43.800
<v Speaker 3>twenty sixth day of April, and yet another day of

0:00:43.920 --> 0:00:48.080
<v Speaker 3>the NFL Draft. And I Am not going to sit

0:00:48.159 --> 0:00:51.400
<v Speaker 3>here and pretend like I was watching every eye on

0:00:51.479 --> 0:00:54.480
<v Speaker 3>my phone, Danny the NFL yesterday, the Draft. I was

0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:57.160
<v Speaker 3>focused on other things, but I would go check. I

0:00:57.240 --> 0:00:59.640
<v Speaker 3>wasn't sitting on the edge of my seat watching the draft.

0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:01.640
<v Speaker 1>I did have it on my phone, and I would.

0:01:01.800 --> 0:01:04.080
<v Speaker 3>I would look over every like ten minutes or so,

0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:07.120
<v Speaker 3>and I like the Rams had. They didn't even have

0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:08.680
<v Speaker 3>a pick in the first round because they trade it

0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:10.080
<v Speaker 3>out of the first round, which I'm fine with. I

0:01:10.080 --> 0:01:12.319
<v Speaker 3>don't care because I want to see that they picked,

0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:14.880
<v Speaker 3>and so they picked like fourteenth in the second round,

0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:16.640
<v Speaker 3>so I had to keep checking back and all that.

0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:18.920
<v Speaker 3>But I was not hanging on the edge of my

0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:23.120
<v Speaker 3>seat for every single pick in the second round. So

0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:25.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm proud of myself that I actually have things going on.

0:01:25.840 --> 0:01:27.360
<v Speaker 3>I've got stuff going on.

0:01:27.720 --> 0:01:30.120
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying. I was just there locked

0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:30.880
<v Speaker 1>in on everything.

0:01:31.000 --> 0:01:32.120
<v Speaker 4>You got cookies to bake.

0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:36.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I'm bet Benny Crocker, not Betty Crocker. I'm Benny Crocker.

0:01:36.240 --> 0:01:37.600
<v Speaker 3>So I got things to do. Man.

0:01:37.920 --> 0:01:39.640
<v Speaker 4>I Actually I pay too much.

0:01:40.200 --> 0:01:43.040
<v Speaker 5>We've talked about this in past years, but I'm one

0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:46.000
<v Speaker 5>of the weirdos who watches pretty much every minute of

0:01:46.560 --> 0:01:50.720
<v Speaker 5>not later, not like the sixth, seventh rounds, but you know,

0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:54.000
<v Speaker 5>I would say one through four and even the start

0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:57.000
<v Speaker 5>of five. I pay attention. Why because my favorite team

0:01:57.040 --> 0:02:00.960
<v Speaker 5>is the Raiders. This is our super Bowl annually, this

0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:02.360
<v Speaker 5>is our super Bowl.

0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:03.480
<v Speaker 1>I got you.

0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:06.520
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I come from FM picks Land, you know,

0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:09.600
<v Speaker 3>the Rams. And also I'm just bitter because I've been

0:02:09.680 --> 0:02:11.880
<v Speaker 3>sold to Billy Goods on so many draft picks over

0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:14.720
<v Speaker 3>the years that this guy's the next great you know whatever,

0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:16.920
<v Speaker 3>it's a whole cottage thing, and I just have been

0:02:16.960 --> 0:02:20.200
<v Speaker 3>so turned off by those prognostications over the years that

0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:22.280
<v Speaker 3>it's like, I know it's good for the show, and

0:02:22.680 --> 0:02:27.760
<v Speaker 3>I do look for storylines to talk about, and obviously

0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:31.240
<v Speaker 3>there's some things in the second and third round that

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:34.520
<v Speaker 3>will be good talk radio. In the olden days when

0:02:34.520 --> 0:02:37.200
<v Speaker 3>we were kids, the NFL's draft would still be going

0:02:37.240 --> 0:02:40.000
<v Speaker 3>on if they if they had continued to spread this

0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:42.120
<v Speaker 3>thing out, because when I was little, I think the

0:02:42.200 --> 0:02:46.360
<v Speaker 3>draft was like thirteen rounds the NFL draft, And of course,

0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:47.120
<v Speaker 3>obviously now.

0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:48.320
<v Speaker 1>They've cut that back a lot.

0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:52.600
<v Speaker 5>By the way, is Shaudor Sanders still inside his private

0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:53.760
<v Speaker 5>club at the.

0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:55.639
<v Speaker 1>Green Green Bay Green Room.

0:02:57.760 --> 0:02:59.760
<v Speaker 5>Did he have a three day deal with the sound

0:02:59.840 --> 0:03:02.040
<v Speaker 5>man that they gave him for his concert in there?

0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:04.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Yeah.

0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:08.400
<v Speaker 3>Let me point out though that the Shudhar Sanders, if

0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:11.880
<v Speaker 3>Southwest Airlines brings back that those want to get away commercials,

0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:13.880
<v Speaker 3>that would be the one to get away moment for

0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:16.720
<v Speaker 3>sus Oh my god, holy craft.

0:03:16.720 --> 0:03:19.560
<v Speaker 5>Do you know when weeke they showed a camera on

0:03:19.639 --> 0:03:22.160
<v Speaker 5>him and he was just on a field throwing a

0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:24.440
<v Speaker 5>football around, and they're like, there he is throwing a

0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:28.640
<v Speaker 5>football around. Just waiting to be drafted. I don't know

0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:32.040
<v Speaker 5>what's worse, hanging out in a green room or out

0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.880
<v Speaker 5>on a field throwing a football around like looking like

0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:35.680
<v Speaker 5>Charlie Brown.

0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:36.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:03:36.440 --> 0:03:38.440
<v Speaker 3>Well, the fall of Shooter Sands. We used to talk

0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 3>about how this guy fell and that guy fell.

0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:42.960
<v Speaker 5>The fact that he did not get picked in the

0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:45.880
<v Speaker 5>second or third round is just crazy.

0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:48.360
<v Speaker 3>For the rest of our lives, probably, Danny, if a

0:03:48.440 --> 0:03:50.640
<v Speaker 3>quarterback falls in the draft, they'd be like, what could

0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:54.040
<v Speaker 3>always be worse? You could have been Shudar Sanders. You know,

0:03:54.080 --> 0:03:55.320
<v Speaker 3>it could always be worse.

0:03:55.400 --> 0:03:56.200
<v Speaker 1>And it's going.

0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.040
<v Speaker 3>To be like that because to think that he was

0:03:59.160 --> 0:04:02.840
<v Speaker 3>projected two months ago being a top five pick in

0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:05.880
<v Speaker 3>the draft and what's happened this weekend is just just

0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:08.400
<v Speaker 3>absolutely nuts. By the way, it is National Pretzel Day today,

0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:09.760
<v Speaker 3>so celebrate appropriately, Danny.

0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:11.400
<v Speaker 1>National Pretzel Day today.

0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:13.680
<v Speaker 5>That's my go to at a sporting event. If they

0:04:13.720 --> 0:04:17.160
<v Speaker 5>have the melted nacho cheese that you can the cup

0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:19.600
<v Speaker 5>of cheese you can get on the side with the

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:22.200
<v Speaker 5>warm pretzel lightly salted, that's the go to.

0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:25.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, all right, you want some pretzel fun facts, I

0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:26.320
<v Speaker 3>have pretzel fun facts.

0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:28.400
<v Speaker 1>I come prepared. Danny fun facts.

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:28.920
<v Speaker 4>Let's go.

0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.480
<v Speaker 3>This is not just some two bit weekend podcast. No,

0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:36.880
<v Speaker 3>the annual worth of the pretzel industry in the United States.

0:04:36.960 --> 0:04:38.440
<v Speaker 3>You want me to give it to your give you

0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:39.840
<v Speaker 3>the number you want to guess.

0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:40.920
<v Speaker 1>It's in the millions.

0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:45.160
<v Speaker 3>How much is the pretzel industry worth in the United States.

0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:50.279
<v Speaker 4>I'm going to say two hundred and thirty two million dollars.

0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:52.920
<v Speaker 3>All right, fine, answer, you did not go over, so

0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:55.960
<v Speaker 3>you do win the showcase. The answer five hundred and

0:04:56.080 --> 0:05:00.000
<v Speaker 3>fifty million dollar business an annual worth in the pres

0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:00.560
<v Speaker 3>that's an industry.

0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:04.039
<v Speaker 1>That's a lot of dough. Damn, that's dough and on average.

0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:06.960
<v Speaker 3>Now, keep in mind not everyone does eat pretzels, but

0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:11.839
<v Speaker 3>the average consumption in pounds of pretzels by your average

0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:16.599
<v Speaker 3>American per year, so yeah, we're average. How many pounds

0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:21.400
<v Speaker 3>of pretzels, give or take will the average American eat

0:05:21.520 --> 0:05:22.039
<v Speaker 3>per year?

0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:23.960
<v Speaker 4>Average?

0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:28.680
<v Speaker 3>Are pretzel fun facts of the fifth hour.

0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:35.039
<v Speaker 5>I'm going to say each American probably ten pounds. No,

0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:38.039
<v Speaker 5>you have gone over, Danny. You do not mean I'm

0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:40.000
<v Speaker 5>thinking of myself at sporting events.

0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:43.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, No, it's at one point five.

0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:45.960
<v Speaker 4>That's wimpy, that's very wimpy.

0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:48.840
<v Speaker 3>Hold on, let's do some malormath on this whole mother sec.

0:05:48.920 --> 0:05:52.120
<v Speaker 3>Let's see here, what is the what is the population

0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:55.919
<v Speaker 3>in America? What are we like three hundred and thirty

0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:56.680
<v Speaker 3>million or something like that?

0:05:56.800 --> 0:05:57.280
<v Speaker 1>Is that? Am I?

0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:59.359
<v Speaker 4>Right? I guess I should have checked that into account.

0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:02.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so let's let's do the math here.

0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:07.159
<v Speaker 3>So how many If it's three hundred thirty, let's do

0:06:07.279 --> 0:06:10.640
<v Speaker 3>three three you're listening to live math coverage now on

0:06:10.680 --> 0:06:18.359
<v Speaker 3>the podcast, three hundred million, and then you got one

0:06:18.440 --> 0:06:19.320
<v Speaker 3>point five.

0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:22.039
<v Speaker 4>Not a numbers guy, but.

0:06:21.720 --> 0:06:24.440
<v Speaker 1>But that doesn't seem to add up. Well, No, three

0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:26.400
<v Speaker 1>hundred million, and but one point five.

0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:30.320
<v Speaker 3>You just have to do the one point five times

0:06:30.320 --> 0:06:31.280
<v Speaker 3>three hundred million, right.

0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:32.120
<v Speaker 1>Wouldn't that be the math?

0:06:32.279 --> 0:06:33.040
<v Speaker 4>Carry the one?

0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:35.240
<v Speaker 1>Let's see you.

0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:38.640
<v Speaker 3>I'll just do one point five times three hundred Yeah,

0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:42.120
<v Speaker 3>four hundred and fifty. So then you extrapolate that and

0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:44.160
<v Speaker 3>it's a lot. The answer is a lot. It's a

0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:47.880
<v Speaker 3>lot of dough. Anyway, Joy Pretzel Day, Enjoy Pretzel Day.

0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:06.200
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, there's only one hotel left in Prim. There's

0:08:06.240 --> 0:08:09.200
<v Speaker 3>that big gas station on one side, there's a truck

0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:12.920
<v Speaker 3>stop gas station on the other near Whiskey Pets. And

0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:15.600

0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:19.720
<v Speaker 3>only one left. The mall's pretty much gone. There's a

0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:21.520
<v Speaker 3>couple of scattered restaurants.

0:08:22.280 --> 0:08:24.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's a ghost town. That's wild.

0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:26.520
<v Speaker 3>Anyway, So we go through there and it finally got

0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:29.120
<v Speaker 3>to Vegas and a lot of traffic around the desk Star.

0:08:29.360 --> 0:08:35.920
<v Speaker 3>We were unaware that last weekend was WrestleMania and it

0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:40.679
<v Speaker 3>was popping. It was massively the wave of humanity that

0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:42.720
<v Speaker 3>had ascended in Vegas.

0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:46.560
<v Speaker 5>I saw the video when it led out and people

0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:49.920
<v Speaker 5>were just crammed like sardines, and it reminded me of

0:08:49.960 --> 0:08:53.880
<v Speaker 5>our recent past episode where we were talking about being claustrophobic.

0:08:54.800 --> 0:08:57.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, it was It was wild. I

0:08:57.559 --> 0:08:58.400
<v Speaker 1>didn't know what was going on.

0:08:58.480 --> 0:09:01.560
<v Speaker 3>Bad job by me, I'm not, you know, and watching

0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:04.079
<v Speaker 3>wrestling every week and all that. I did get a

0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:06.559
<v Speaker 3>lot of messages from people that were very excited, fans

0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:08.679
<v Speaker 3>of the Malad militia that are like, hey, Russep's back,

0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:11.439
<v Speaker 3>you know, And I guess he made his debut on

0:09:11.679 --> 0:09:15.959
<v Speaker 3>his return actually on Monday night raw, I guess, but it.

0:09:15.920 --> 0:09:16.720
<v Speaker 1>Wasn't a wresmating.

0:09:16.720 --> 0:09:18.560
<v Speaker 3>But anyway, I was there for wrestlming and he I

0:09:18.640 --> 0:09:21.080
<v Speaker 3>was not there for Wrestlmening it was going on. So

0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:23.760
<v Speaker 3>I went to meet my cousin from New York and

0:09:23.800 --> 0:09:28.440
<v Speaker 3>then some other relatives scattered around the West on my

0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:30.480
<v Speaker 3>cousin's side of the things. They showed up, so we

0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.160
<v Speaker 3>were all hanging out and then we pretty much just

0:09:33.280 --> 0:09:38.200
<v Speaker 3>did that and we went to one of my favorite

0:09:38.240 --> 0:09:41.199
<v Speaker 3>pizza places is over in Henderson. So we were over

0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:46.520
<v Speaker 3>in Henderson and ate some delicious pizza, fried cheese and

0:09:47.000 --> 0:09:51.200
<v Speaker 3>just just wonderful, and took off from there and we

0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:54.280
<v Speaker 3>went to a tiki bar, because there's a bunch of

0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:56.679
<v Speaker 3>tiki bars, and this place in Vegas it was so cool,

0:09:57.559 --> 0:10:02.160
<v Speaker 3>little crappy like it was. I'm trying to describe it.

0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:06.840
<v Speaker 3>It's like your typical suburban. It's a mall, not a mall,

0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:09.559
<v Speaker 3>you know, the strip mall. I guess got a strip mall. Yeah,

0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:11.360
<v Speaker 3>strip mall, that's the word I was looking for. So

0:10:11.360 --> 0:10:13.440
<v Speaker 3>it's a strip mall and there's nothing special about it.

0:10:13.480 --> 0:10:15.960
<v Speaker 3>And like everything, it's like we're there like one in

0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:20.040
<v Speaker 3>the morning and everything's open. Place is packed and the

0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:21.680
<v Speaker 3>coolest thing. We got out of there went to the

0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:23.400
<v Speaker 3>Tiki bark is. My wife likes going to those things,

0:10:23.400 --> 0:10:24.400
<v Speaker 3>and so we.

0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:28.000
<v Speaker 1>Get out across the street they are we hear this.

0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:33.920
<v Speaker 3>Like that it's a tire repair shop, twenty four hour

0:10:34.080 --> 0:10:35.000
<v Speaker 3>tire repair shop.

0:10:35.440 --> 0:10:37.839
<v Speaker 1>It's like two in the morning, three in the.

0:10:37.800 --> 0:10:41.319
<v Speaker 3>Morning, and people are getting their tires were replaced at

0:10:41.320 --> 0:10:44.800
<v Speaker 3>this this twenty four hour tire shop. As while like,

0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:46.679
<v Speaker 3>that's the way to do it. Man, that's my kind

0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:49.199
<v Speaker 3>of schedule there. That's how they roll in Vega. You

0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:51.400

<v Speaker 3>no problem, we got you. That's that's the way to go.

0:10:55.480 --> 0:10:57.280
<v Speaker 3>So we had We had a good time. It was

0:10:57.320 --> 0:11:01.920
<v Speaker 3>a short trip. Got a little stomach issue on the

0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:05.079
<v Speaker 3>way back, so unfortunately the wife had to drive back.

0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:06.760
<v Speaker 3>But I was good by the time we got back.

0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:10.920
<v Speaker 3>So there was that. I did not see any mountain

0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:14.560
<v Speaker 3>lions on my way back. I drove through Death Valley

0:11:14.600 --> 0:11:17.360
<v Speaker 3>in the same strip obviously that we took to get

0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:17.800
<v Speaker 3>to Vegas.

0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:20.840
<v Speaker 1>I didn't see any. But we we did have a

0:11:20.880 --> 0:11:22.880
<v Speaker 1>fun trip back and right back to work.

0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:25.360
<v Speaker 3>Immediately when you got back to La So we didn't

0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:28.680
<v Speaker 3>have much time much downtime with this podcast and everything

0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:30.440
<v Speaker 3>going on now.

0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:34.679
<v Speaker 5>I actually just sent you two text messages that you're

0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:35.760
<v Speaker 5>going to receive right now.

0:11:36.000 --> 0:11:37.080
<v Speaker 4>Okay, I'm going to look you.

0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:39.640
<v Speaker 5>I would like to alert all the affiliates down the

0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:42.680
<v Speaker 5>line that Ben is looking at his cellular device.

0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:45.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, I'm looking right now.

0:11:45.320 --> 0:11:51.360
<v Speaker 5>Yes, the world's most expensive and largest wildlife crossing in

0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:55.640
<v Speaker 5>the world. Ben one hundred million dollars well spent by

0:11:55.720 --> 0:12:00.080
<v Speaker 5>taxpayers money and the Annenberg family. And if you see

0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:02.319
<v Speaker 5>the picture I took as I was crossing underneath of

0:12:02.360 --> 0:12:05.640
<v Speaker 5>it the other day to go to the network, you

0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:07.960
<v Speaker 5>see that their name is on it. Now, so that's

0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:12.679
<v Speaker 5>what how many I'm not sure what part of the

0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:15.280
<v Speaker 5>cost they covered, but they got their name. They got

0:12:15.320 --> 0:12:17.559
<v Speaker 5>their name on the damn thing. Though it says now

0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:19.720
<v Speaker 5>Ironnberg Wildlife crossing.

0:12:20.280 --> 0:12:21.679
<v Speaker 1>Are humans allowed to use it?

0:12:21.720 --> 0:12:23.640
<v Speaker 3>Like? What do they do? Do they kill a human?

0:12:23.760 --> 0:12:25.640
<v Speaker 3>If a human being crosses over it?

0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:27.800
<v Speaker 1>Do they shoot them? Is that because that's for the wildlife?

0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:28.240
<v Speaker 4>Why not?

0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:28.480
<v Speaker 1>Sure?

0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:32.120
<v Speaker 5>It says grand opening coming in twenty twenty six, So

0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:34.200
<v Speaker 5>does that mean like all the animals are gonna line

0:12:34.280 --> 0:12:36.240
<v Speaker 5>up with fanfare and.

0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:38.320
<v Speaker 3>It's gonna be It's gonna be like Noah's ark. They're

0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:41.520
<v Speaker 3>gonna have every animal cross at the same time.

0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:45.800
<v Speaker 5>When I read about them and I read about the

0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:50.080
<v Speaker 5>grand opening, that's what I pictured. Now this article from

0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:54.480
<v Speaker 5>ABC seven in Los Angeles, it says first layer of

0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:57.920
<v Speaker 5>soil was laid down for the wildlife crossing over the

0:12:57.920 --> 0:13:00.400
<v Speaker 5>one on one freeway. You and I spoke about this

0:13:00.520 --> 0:13:05.080
<v Speaker 5>when the fires were happening here. When when this turns

0:13:05.120 --> 0:13:07.920
<v Speaker 5>into a fire hazard because obviously, look at all those

0:13:08.000 --> 0:13:10.920
<v Speaker 5>lanes of traffic in both directions. It's really hard for

0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:14.880
<v Speaker 5>fire to cross a freeway with that many lanes from

0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:18.080
<v Speaker 5>one side to the other. But now with this soil

0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:20.920
<v Speaker 5>and grass on top of what happens when that grass

0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:23.240
<v Speaker 5>dries out on top of the wildlife crossing.

0:13:23.880 --> 0:13:25.439
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what's going to happen. First of all,

0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:27.319
<v Speaker 1>though the fire is going to spread.

0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:31.040
<v Speaker 3>Secondly, some attorneys will be running commercials on radio where

0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:35.520
<v Speaker 3>you're damaged by the fire that crossed over the wildfire bridge. We'll,

0:13:35.640 --> 0:13:39.920
<v Speaker 3>you know, contact us, will sue the Innenburg group or whoever.

0:13:40.240 --> 0:13:44.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, this is the other dude, I've noticed it.

0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:46.280
<v Speaker 3>I saw a story about this too the other day,

0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:50.920
<v Speaker 3>and the comments of people that think they're saving the world.

0:13:51.000 --> 0:13:51.920
<v Speaker 1>It's wild to me.

0:13:52.080 --> 0:13:55.360
<v Speaker 3>It is it is next level, like they are so

0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:58.520
<v Speaker 3>convinced that this is the way to do it. Uh,

0:13:58.760 --> 0:14:01.160
<v Speaker 3>and it just I don't know, I don't get that mindset,

0:14:01.240 --> 0:14:04.120
<v Speaker 3>but it's not me. It just seems very bizarre to me.

0:14:04.800 --> 0:14:07.160
<v Speaker 3>But how many homeless people do you think could sleep

0:14:07.240 --> 0:14:07.520
<v Speaker 3>up there?

0:14:07.800 --> 0:14:08.480
<v Speaker 4>What do we look at it?

0:14:10.200 --> 0:14:12.400
<v Speaker 3>You can fit a lot of tents right, they got water,

0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:14.000
<v Speaker 3>they could go to the swing, they could swim there.

0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:15.920
<v Speaker 3>They could use one of the little ponds for swimming.

0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:17.520
<v Speaker 3>The other one they could use as a bathroom.

0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:21.480
<v Speaker 5>Have you ever been to Calabasas slash Agora Hills, California.

0:14:22.080 --> 0:14:26.160
<v Speaker 5>There are no homeless people in those towns. The cut

0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:29.000
<v Speaker 5>off line is Woodland Hills and they should.

0:14:29.480 --> 0:14:31.360
<v Speaker 1>We should get some buses go down to skid Row.

0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:34.480
<v Speaker 1>We can drive them up and then home.

0:14:34.600 --> 0:14:38.040
<v Speaker 5>Man that if you think about it, though, what a

0:14:38.120 --> 0:14:41.560
<v Speaker 5>sly place that would be to set up camp right

0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:45.520
<v Speaker 5>above the freeway there you know you're you're not far

0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:48.840
<v Speaker 5>from the off ramp. You could hold your sign there

0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:51.520
<v Speaker 5>on the off ramp and then go back. There's there's

0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:54.240
<v Speaker 5>some utility stairs on both sides of the Wild Cross

0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:58.120
<v Speaker 5>wildlife crossing, so you probably could set up camp up there.

0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:00.280
<v Speaker 5>But I think what's going to happen is it's going

0:15:00.320 --> 0:15:03.040
<v Speaker 5>to be a shit show. And I don't wish this

0:15:03.120 --> 0:15:04.840
<v Speaker 5>to happen. I don't want this to happen. But if

0:15:04.880 --> 0:15:07.800
<v Speaker 5>we get another fire like we had recently just a

0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:12.120
<v Speaker 5>few months back, and it crosses that bridge, that's gonna

0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:15.800
<v Speaker 5>be a big issue because right now, there are no

0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:19.000
<v Speaker 5>freeway overpasses right there for fire to jump.

0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:20.120
<v Speaker 4>They just made one.

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:23.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well they'll say it would have happened anyway, it

0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:24.560
<v Speaker 3>wasn't the bridge.

0:15:24.680 --> 0:15:27.320
<v Speaker 5>You know, they'll come up with some that's bullshit because

0:15:27.360 --> 0:15:30.680
<v Speaker 5>there's no there's not even any cement crossings right now.

0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:33.840
<v Speaker 5>They put a grass crossing, Well you're gonna say, what

0:15:34.000 --> 0:15:37.480
<v Speaker 5>three to four mountain lions per year? But you could

0:15:37.520 --> 0:15:42.240
<v Speaker 5>possibly endanger how many houses with a wildfire. I just

0:15:42.480 --> 0:15:44.440
<v Speaker 5>I look into my crystal ball and I think this

0:15:44.520 --> 0:15:46.720
<v Speaker 5>could be a major issue down the road.

0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:49.440
<v Speaker 3>Well, you just don't care about skunks that want to

0:15:49.440 --> 0:15:51.000
<v Speaker 3>cross the road, Okay, that's your problem.

0:15:51.080 --> 0:15:57.040
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, this is going to help endless squirrels and the owls.

0:15:57.080 --> 0:15:59.040
<v Speaker 5>This is going to totally hook the owls up because

0:15:59.280 --> 0:16:00.920
<v Speaker 5>you know, they can't figgure out how to fly over

0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:03.160
<v Speaker 5>the freeway so they can just walk across.

0:16:03.400 --> 0:16:04.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, like penguins.

0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I hear you, man, we did have a strike.

0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:10.880
<v Speaker 3>If you were listening to the Overnight Show this week,

0:16:10.960 --> 0:16:12.880
<v Speaker 3>some of you have sent me messages on that. We

0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:16.800
<v Speaker 3>don't need to actually break that down too much, but

0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:19.520
<v Speaker 3>I got well, I guess we'll talk about it here.

0:16:19.520 --> 0:16:21.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm not going to answer all the emails. And there

0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:22.480
<v Speaker 3>were like three of them, I say a lot, there

0:16:22.520 --> 0:16:26.480
<v Speaker 3>were three. So Blind Scott decided he was protesting, he

0:16:26.520 --> 0:16:30.440
<v Speaker 3>was going on strike, and then he recruited Supermarket Steve,

0:16:30.480 --> 0:16:34.320
<v Speaker 3>of all people, to go on strike. Yeah, so these

0:16:34.360 --> 0:16:38.040
<v Speaker 3>two jackasses, these jackwagons, decided to go on strike from

0:16:38.040 --> 0:16:40.800
<v Speaker 3>the show. Of course, it lasted all of one day,

0:16:41.040 --> 0:16:44.160
<v Speaker 3>Danny one day, and it was one phone call by

0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:49.120
<v Speaker 3>Blind Scott saying strike, strike, strike, Strike, strike over and

0:16:49.320 --> 0:16:51.640
<v Speaker 3>strike strike over and over and over and over and

0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:53.880
<v Speaker 3>over and over and over all that nonsense. And then

0:16:54.120 --> 0:16:58.160
<v Speaker 3>super Marike Steve complaining because of Mike the Leprechaun and

0:16:58.480 --> 0:16:59.720
<v Speaker 3>some other issues that he had.

0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:01.040
<v Speaker 1>And it always.

0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:04.000
<v Speaker 3>Fascinates me, Dan. We've talked about this before. It is

0:17:04.080 --> 0:17:06.879
<v Speaker 3>a radio show. It is not an airport. You do

0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:09.840
<v Speaker 3>not need to announce your departure. There's no need to

0:17:09.920 --> 0:17:12.919
<v Speaker 3>announce your departure. And it's just these guys needing attention, right,

0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:15.240
<v Speaker 3>they're just their attention starved.

0:17:16.080 --> 0:17:17.240
<v Speaker 1>To make attention.

0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:20.879
<v Speaker 3>This is their way to do it, and it's like

0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:23.480
<v Speaker 3>a reality show and that's their grand finale.

0:17:23.520 --> 0:17:26.520
<v Speaker 1>But it's not really their grand finale because.

0:17:26.280 --> 0:17:29.960
<v Speaker 3>Hey, they're like, we just want you to know that

0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:32.280
<v Speaker 3>we're here, and we're not getting enough attention. So it's like,

0:17:32.760 --> 0:17:35.520
<v Speaker 3>come on, it strikes on it. Who strikes on a

0:17:35.640 --> 0:17:36.200
<v Speaker 3>radio show.

0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:37.080
<v Speaker 1>It's so stupid.

0:17:37.280 --> 0:17:39.640
<v Speaker 3>These guys that complain, like some of you complain about

0:17:39.640 --> 0:17:41.840
<v Speaker 3>certain people to call the show, Danny.

0:17:41.880 --> 0:17:44.480
<v Speaker 1>These guys that call in are on for what two minutes?

0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:46.360
<v Speaker 1>It's two minutes.

0:17:46.840 --> 0:17:50.600
<v Speaker 3>It's nothing. It's a grain of sand on the beach.

0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:54.080
<v Speaker 3>It's absolutely nothing. To get all worked up into it

0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:59.040
<v Speaker 3>a lad about. I don't understand. It's like, not everyone

0:17:59.080 --> 0:18:01.840
<v Speaker 3>that calls the show is a good caller. In fact,

0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:03.479
<v Speaker 3>most of the people that call the show are not.

0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:08.280
<v Speaker 3>We all understand that there's no need to h to

0:18:08.359 --> 0:18:10.720
<v Speaker 3>jump up and down and scream and shout and all that.

0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:12.919
<v Speaker 1>Come on I'm a doctor.

0:18:13.840 --> 0:18:17.840
<v Speaker 3>Knock it off, buccaroo, Okay, it just stop stop stopping,

0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:21.720
<v Speaker 3>stopp yes anyway, Uh.

0:18:22.440 --> 0:18:23.840
<v Speaker 4>Not everybody is Genie.

0:18:24.320 --> 0:18:26.600
<v Speaker 3>No, there's you know, Genie's in all the time. I

0:18:26.680 --> 0:18:28.600
<v Speaker 3>wish I'd put Geenie on the air more. Back in

0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:30.520
<v Speaker 3>the day, I got to know were there people who

0:18:30.520 --> 0:18:33.560
<v Speaker 3>are upset with Genie too? People would send me messages.

0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:35.679
<v Speaker 3>Was she on so much? She's not in your demo,

0:18:36.119 --> 0:18:38.000
<v Speaker 3>she's you know, you're not supposed to get older women

0:18:38.040 --> 0:18:40.480
<v Speaker 3>to call the show. We're trying to get young dudes.

0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:41.720
<v Speaker 3>What's wrong with you? I don't want to hear what

0:18:41.800 --> 0:18:44.760
<v Speaker 3>she has to say. She didn't even talk about sports. Yeah,

0:18:44.800 --> 0:18:47.119
<v Speaker 3>I know, she doesn't talk about sports. That's the beauty

0:18:47.119 --> 0:18:50.399
<v Speaker 3>of her phone calls. She doesn't talk about sports. Okay,

0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:53.919
<v Speaker 3>she's not at their mining data to come up with

0:18:53.960 --> 0:18:54.800
<v Speaker 3>some statistic.

0:18:55.440 --> 0:18:56.679
<v Speaker 1>By the way, the other day, I I.

0:18:57.160 --> 0:18:58.879
<v Speaker 3>Don't listen to a lot of sports radio, and I

0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:02.639
<v Speaker 3>happen to be listening to something on the app and

0:19:02.680 --> 0:19:04.919
<v Speaker 3>then it ended up you know how you hit the

0:19:04.920 --> 0:19:06.800
<v Speaker 3>wrong button and it ends up on a It was

0:19:06.840 --> 0:19:09.440
<v Speaker 3>a local sports station that popped up.

0:19:09.880 --> 0:19:11.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know how that happened on the iHeart app.

0:19:12.200 --> 0:19:14.119
<v Speaker 3>I was listening to something else and it popped up

0:19:14.240 --> 0:19:18.280
<v Speaker 3>local station some listening, and it was some dude talking

0:19:18.359 --> 0:19:26.399
<v Speaker 3>baseball and he was just giving like analytics and ganny.

0:19:26.520 --> 0:19:27.040
<v Speaker 1>You know that.

0:19:27.160 --> 0:19:30.280
<v Speaker 3>Sounded like I wanted to take a sharp object and

0:19:30.440 --> 0:19:34.800
<v Speaker 3>poke my ears out listening to this moron.

0:19:36.440 --> 0:19:38.280
<v Speaker 1>Numbers are fine and all that.

0:19:38.240 --> 0:19:43.199
<v Speaker 3>But you cannot just sit there and read off a

0:19:43.240 --> 0:19:48.119
<v Speaker 3>bunch of percentages and data projected probabilities, and I mean.

0:19:48.000 --> 0:19:51.560
<v Speaker 1>It's just it's terrible. It is so bad.

0:19:52.359 --> 0:19:54.200
<v Speaker 3>And this I don't even know who the person was,

0:19:54.240 --> 0:19:56.280
<v Speaker 3>and I only listened for like forty five seconds, and

0:19:56.320 --> 0:19:58.640
<v Speaker 3>it was so terrifically terrible.

0:19:59.440 --> 0:20:02.840
<v Speaker 1>Just like you cannot you can't do it.

0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:06.359
<v Speaker 3>You can't just read a bunch of metrics or whatever

0:20:06.800 --> 0:20:09.239
<v Speaker 3>nonsense mumbo jumbo you have.

0:20:09.320 --> 0:20:10.679
<v Speaker 1>No it's a bad listen.

0:20:11.119 --> 0:20:13.800
<v Speaker 5>I don't even like baseball talk on the radio, to

0:20:13.840 --> 0:20:16.440
<v Speaker 5>be honest with you. Not network talk on AM five

0:20:16.520 --> 0:20:19.360
<v Speaker 5>seventy LA sports when you fill in there. I get

0:20:19.359 --> 0:20:22.720
<v Speaker 5>it in the local affiliates all across the country talk

0:20:22.760 --> 0:20:26.320
<v Speaker 5>away with your local baseball team, but nationally to try

0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:28.639
<v Speaker 5>to talk baseball really really difficult.

0:20:30.160 --> 0:20:32.280
<v Speaker 1>You can do it. But you can only do it

0:20:32.000 --> 0:20:33.720
<v Speaker 1>if it if it.

0:20:33.320 --> 0:20:36.240
<v Speaker 3>Has broad appeal, if it's not narrow, like if there's

0:20:36.280 --> 0:20:40.360
<v Speaker 3>a story that crosses over apps.

0:20:40.040 --> 0:20:44.640
<v Speaker 5>Like the Sure But yeah, right, that's a good example.

0:20:44.880 --> 0:20:47.159
<v Speaker 5>But how many of those stories do we get in

0:20:47.200 --> 0:20:48.119
<v Speaker 5>a baseball season?

0:20:49.080 --> 0:20:50.000
<v Speaker 1>Well that's the issue.

0:20:50.080 --> 0:20:53.960
<v Speaker 3>Rob Manfraud the commissioner, He's complained about this. He was

0:20:54.040 --> 0:20:57.439
<v Speaker 3>very upset with ESPN and they'll I've heard they're going

0:20:57.480 --> 0:20:59.600
<v Speaker 3>to get another deal with the ESPN Baseball, but that's

0:20:59.600 --> 0:21:02.639
<v Speaker 3>a different they don't have one. Now that's a different conversation.

0:21:02.720 --> 0:21:07.679
<v Speaker 3>But Manford was upset because the people over there that

0:21:07.880 --> 0:21:10.080
<v Speaker 3>are gas bags, like Steven A who used to work

0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:14.800
<v Speaker 3>at our place, and these other morons. They don't talk baseball.

0:21:14.800 --> 0:21:17.280
<v Speaker 3>They talked basketball, but basketball. I had a friend of

0:21:17.280 --> 0:21:22.440
<v Speaker 3>mine who's worked in media for thirty years. He said, Ben,

0:21:22.680 --> 0:21:24.959
<v Speaker 3>why don't they just not play the NBA games? They

0:21:25.000 --> 0:21:26.600
<v Speaker 3>just give us enough to talk about. We don't even

0:21:26.680 --> 0:21:28.520
<v Speaker 3>need the games to talk about. We'll just talk about

0:21:28.560 --> 0:21:31.080
<v Speaker 3>this stuff off the court. We don't even need the games.

0:21:31.359 --> 0:21:33.920
<v Speaker 3>Why do they play the games? And his whole point

0:21:34.000 --> 0:21:36.280
<v Speaker 3>was it's so great because of the drama, because of

0:21:36.320 --> 0:21:38.679
<v Speaker 3>the behind the scenes stuff that the games and I

0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:40.240
<v Speaker 3>do break down some of these playoff games.

0:21:40.280 --> 0:21:41.680
<v Speaker 1>I have been doing a lot of that, much to.

0:21:41.640 --> 0:21:46.439
<v Speaker 3>The disconnect of some people who are upset anytime I

0:21:46.440 --> 0:21:48.560
<v Speaker 3>talk about it, and well, you're talking about NBA playoff games.

0:21:48.400 --> 0:21:50.639
<v Speaker 3>It's not the conference finals yet and all that stuff.

0:21:50.800 --> 0:21:56.119
<v Speaker 3>But the NBA is, for what we do amazing. In

0:21:56.200 --> 0:22:01.720
<v Speaker 3>terms of conversation, it's great. It's it's the Greek tragedy

0:22:01.800 --> 0:22:04.080
<v Speaker 3>over here. It's a Shakespearean drama.

0:22:04.440 --> 0:22:07.600
<v Speaker 1>It's it's Anthony Edwards grabbing his dick.

0:22:09.040 --> 0:22:17.000
<v Speaker 6>Announcing how big his sausages to the world, and it's just, oh,

0:22:17.040 --> 0:22:19.640
<v Speaker 6>man is outstanding.

0:22:21.160 --> 0:22:23.439
<v Speaker 3>I wanted to thank to you the listener, and I

0:22:23.440 --> 0:22:26.760
<v Speaker 3>forget the name. Somebody sent us these giant cookies. There's

0:22:26.760 --> 0:22:29.640
<v Speaker 3>a cookie shop in Nashville. We did trade. I made

0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:33.080
<v Speaker 3>a trade. I was given the Elvis Cookie, which is

0:22:33.200 --> 0:22:36.720
<v Speaker 3>a banana cream pie type cookie thing.

0:22:37.240 --> 0:22:41.520
<v Speaker 1>I traded that. I made a trade with the Coop.

0:22:42.480 --> 0:22:45.160
<v Speaker 3>I picked up in the trade the Cookie Monster, which

0:22:45.160 --> 0:22:48.240
<v Speaker 3>is a blue cookie. It's so big it had like

0:22:48.440 --> 0:22:51.440
<v Speaker 3>four oreos stuffed in the middle. So I acquired the

0:22:51.720 --> 0:22:56.880
<v Speaker 3>Cookie Monster cookies. I got the Lemon cookie in the deal.

0:22:56.920 --> 0:23:00.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm happy with the deal. I went for quantity over quality,

0:23:01.640 --> 0:23:04.920
<v Speaker 3>and these things are so ridiculous the mistake I made,

0:23:04.960 --> 0:23:06.520
<v Speaker 3>and these are really good cookies, and I want to think,

0:23:06.720 --> 0:23:08.159
<v Speaker 3>and I don't off the top of my head, I

0:23:08.160 --> 0:23:12.280
<v Speaker 3>don't remember exactly the name. I apologize in advance. It's

0:23:12.320 --> 0:23:15.200
<v Speaker 3>bad job by me. But in my defense, Lorraine actually

0:23:15.200 --> 0:23:17.480
<v Speaker 3>opened the box. I didn't even open the box, so

0:23:17.480 --> 0:23:20.000
<v Speaker 3>I didn't see the name. She told me the name

0:23:20.040 --> 0:23:20.400
<v Speaker 3>one time.

0:23:20.440 --> 0:23:20.760
<v Speaker 1>That was it.

0:23:20.840 --> 0:23:23.400
<v Speaker 3>So I opened the cookies up and they had how

0:23:23.440 --> 0:23:27.479
<v Speaker 3>many calories were on the cookie? Okay, so there's two

0:23:27.560 --> 0:23:29.919
<v Speaker 3>things about this that pissed me off. The first is

0:23:29.960 --> 0:23:31.920
<v Speaker 3>that I saw how many calaries were on the cookie.

0:23:33.480 --> 0:23:36.919
<v Speaker 5>The second is that's like, that's like seeing the debit

0:23:37.000 --> 0:23:40.520
<v Speaker 5>card information from your wife exactly exactly.

0:23:40.800 --> 0:23:44.120
<v Speaker 3>You just things you don't need to know. You actually, well,

0:23:44.119 --> 0:23:45.680
<v Speaker 3>you do need to know, but you don't.

0:23:45.480 --> 0:23:47.920
<v Speaker 1>Want to know. It was that type of situation.

0:23:48.080 --> 0:23:50.240
<v Speaker 3>So I saw how many calories of the cookies were

0:23:50.280 --> 0:23:52.600
<v Speaker 3>and then that pissed me off. And then the other

0:23:52.680 --> 0:23:54.720
<v Speaker 3>thing was, now, this is a cookie and I don't

0:23:54.720 --> 0:23:57.880
<v Speaker 3>have a photo to send you, Dandy, but just imagine

0:23:57.920 --> 0:23:59.000
<v Speaker 3>the palm of your hand.

0:23:59.080 --> 0:24:00.959
<v Speaker 5>Oh no, no, I saw them in the studio. There

0:24:01.000 --> 0:24:04.280
<v Speaker 5>was one left behind in the studio and Covino and

0:24:04.359 --> 0:24:08.200
<v Speaker 5>Rich were breaking it into parts. One cookie fed the

0:24:08.359 --> 0:24:12.359
<v Speaker 5>entire crew. Yes, yes, exactly. It is a massive It's

0:24:12.400 --> 0:24:15.879
<v Speaker 5>like the size of your palm times ten. So that

0:24:16.119 --> 0:24:21.680
<v Speaker 5>they say that cookie has six six servings in that

0:24:21.720 --> 0:24:22.480
<v Speaker 5>one cookie.

0:24:23.560 --> 0:24:25.760
<v Speaker 1>How many people are gonna eat that in six servings?

0:24:26.240 --> 0:24:28.760
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying. Right then?

0:24:29.080 --> 0:24:31.280
<v Speaker 3>And then the one and every one of these things

0:24:31.320 --> 0:24:35.560
<v Speaker 3>was different. But the cook I think it averaged one

0:24:35.680 --> 0:24:39.359
<v Speaker 3>hundred and twenty five Let.

0:24:39.280 --> 0:24:39.879
<v Speaker 4>Me do the matho.

0:24:39.960 --> 0:24:42.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it was one hundred and twenty five calories per serving,

0:24:42.200 --> 0:24:44.399
<v Speaker 3>So there's six servings, so it's like seven it was

0:24:44.640 --> 0:24:49.359
<v Speaker 3>almost eight hundred calories I think per cookie. This sounds like,

0:24:49.520 --> 0:24:52.120
<v Speaker 3>oh man, and I don't count calories. I eat once

0:24:52.160 --> 0:24:54.320
<v Speaker 3>a day, so I could probably be fine doing it

0:24:54.359 --> 0:24:54.800
<v Speaker 3>and all that.

0:24:55.359 --> 0:24:56.560
<v Speaker 1>It's just once, you know.

0:24:56.920 --> 0:24:58.600
<v Speaker 3>It's like I could have had a big mac and

0:24:58.760 --> 0:25:03.440
<v Speaker 3>fries or cookie and I was like, whoa, what is

0:25:03.520 --> 0:25:03.800
<v Speaker 3>up with that?

0:25:03.800 --> 0:25:03.919
<v Speaker 1>All?

0:25:03.960 --> 0:25:04.080
<v Speaker 5>Right?

0:25:04.080 --> 0:25:07.960
<v Speaker 3>Time now for the phrase of the week, the phrase

0:25:08.680 --> 0:25:11.800
<v Speaker 3>of the week. My phrase of the week this week

0:25:11.840 --> 0:25:15.399
<v Speaker 3>is the marching and Chowders Society. We talked about this

0:25:15.520 --> 0:25:20.280
<v Speaker 3>during the draft, certain people advocating for certain players. A

0:25:20.320 --> 0:25:24.600
<v Speaker 3>lot of chatter over the weekend about Schadur Sanders, for example,

0:25:24.680 --> 0:25:28.840
<v Speaker 3>the opening round of the draft back on Thursday night,

0:25:28.920 --> 0:25:32.000
<v Speaker 3>Dandy a lot of mel kiper with his knee pads

0:25:32.040 --> 0:25:33.200
<v Speaker 3>on for all Sason.

0:25:33.320 --> 0:25:37.520
<v Speaker 5>He definitely was paid by the Sanders family. That was awkward.

<v Speaker 3>to the nineteen fifties. Now the phrase became even more widespread.

0:26:52.600 --> 0:26:56.880
<v Speaker 3>It was a There was a political fraternity founded in

0:26:57.000 --> 0:27:02.919
<v Speaker 3>nineteen forty nine by a congressman named Richard Nixon. I

0:27:02.920 --> 0:27:05.359
<v Speaker 3>wonder what happened to him? I wonder what happened to

0:27:05.480 --> 0:27:09.520

0:27:10.680 --> 0:27:13.679
<v Speaker 3>The term also appeared in pop culture. There was a

0:27:13.720 --> 0:27:19.600
<v Speaker 3>comic strip, a comic strip Barnaby in the nineteen forties.

0:27:19.920 --> 0:27:23.119
<v Speaker 3>There were some other cartoons that featured it. But the

0:27:23.200 --> 0:27:25.600
<v Speaker 3>thing that caught me when I was doing my main

0:27:25.640 --> 0:27:30.800
<v Speaker 3>research on this that the phrase was popularized by a

0:27:30.920 --> 0:27:37.280
<v Speaker 3>sportscaster who had national reach and is credited with continuing

0:27:37.320 --> 0:27:44.200
<v Speaker 3>to spread marching in shadow society. That sportscaster Danny Vin Scully.

0:27:44.600 --> 0:27:48.840
<v Speaker 3>It was popularized by Vin Scully on NBC when he

0:27:48.920 --> 0:27:51.360
<v Speaker 3>was doing the Game of the Week, and he did

0:27:51.359 --> 0:27:53.879
<v Speaker 3>football on NBC as well, and he would refer to

0:27:53.920 --> 0:27:57.320
<v Speaker 3>a player who had a lot of supporters. He'd be

0:27:57.560 --> 0:28:01.840
<v Speaker 3>like the Marching and Chowders Society for Willie Mays, the

0:28:01.840 --> 0:28:07.480
<v Speaker 3>Great Vince Scully, Yeah, Vin, Yeah, So that's that's pretty cool.

0:28:07.720 --> 0:28:10.920
