We have a nice mix 0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:19.959 of spices here, Danny, some sport old questions which we 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:22.959 don't normally take, and then a lot of questions which 0:02:23.000 --> 0:02:25.280 we do take, which are about us in life and 0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:28.720 things like that. So the first one on the mail 0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:32.880 bag comes from ozzywas on the International mail Bag from 0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:37.959 Southern Cross Western Australia. He says, Hey, Big Ben, I 0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:41.680 listened to these Saturday podcast and you were talking about 0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:46.200 kangaroo leather used by Nike in boots. He says, to 0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:50.040 my knowledge, this has been done for quite some time. 0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:54.239 He says, there's a couple of suppliers that do do 0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:58.639 it as they claim it soft and durable, and he 0:02:58.800 --> 0:03:00.840 claims and he should oh this because he lives in 0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:04.600 Australia as he was. He says, there are no farms 0:03:05.040 --> 0:03:09.040 as such. They are killed by professional shooters in the 0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:13.880 wild and then shipped to the to the market for 0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:16.960 their high to be used for leather and the meat 0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:22.359 used for steaks that you can buy in supermarkets. And 0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:25.359 he says it does actually taste pretty good and also 0:03:25.520 --> 0:03:29.720 pet food, so you can buy some kangaroo pet food 0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:34.920 for your for your dog. He says it's gaming meat 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:40.240 and best done medium to get the best flavor. He says, 0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:43.480 I found a description to give you guys an idea. 0:03:43.720 --> 0:03:48.120 He says, kangaroo meat is usually uniquely lean with a 0:03:48.360 --> 0:03:51.880 rich and robust flavor. See robust could be good or bad, right, Danny, 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:55.960 that doesn't sound good? Yeah, He says it's comparable to 0:03:56.200 --> 0:04:01.600 game yeah food. He's love it for its bold and 0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:07.920 earthy flavors, he says, still being low and fat at 0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:11.520 the same time, yet high and iron and zinc. It 0:04:11.680 --> 0:04:14.720 has a stronger flavor than beef or lamb and is 0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:21.040 similar to lean leanness. The texture leanness of chicken or 0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:25.240 rabbit rabbit. I knew I should have made a left 0:04:25.320 --> 0:04:29.200 chin at out, but Quakey, would you eat a kangaroo burger? 0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:34.159 And I, um, I'm good. You ever had a bison burger? 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:36.720 You ever had that? Yeah? Yeah, I mentioned that a 0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:39.960 couple of weeks ago. Right, yeah, I'm not you had 0:04:40.000 --> 0:04:42.840 a weird aftertaste. I said, people do go out and 0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:46.920 hunt rabbits. They still buffalo me at Costco here you 0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:51.320 can get buffalo ground beef. So that's Ozzy was thank you, 0:04:51.360 --> 0:04:53.920 Assy was for the He's our inside. Any questions you have, 0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:56.360 if you want to pass, we can pass a question 0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:59.200 on to Ozzy. Was this guy knows everything. This guy 0:04:59.320 --> 0:05:02.800 is on the chain of commerce Danny in Western Australia. 0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:08.160 He is our go to source for all things in Australia. 0:05:08.200 --> 0:05:11.719 And I was watching a documentary I love these dopey 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:16.240 documentaries about Australia last weekend and they pointed out why 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:21.239 population wise Australia, there's hardly anyone living in Australia compared 0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:24.400 to the size of the country. And you know, they 0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:28.000 pointed out because the lack of water. I got a 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:30.880 question for him, what kind of knife does he carry, 0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:33.760 oh yeah, And does he wear one of those crocodile 0:05:33.880 --> 0:05:37.920 Dundee type hats? And does he hate crocodile Dundee for 0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:43.520 using every stereotype from Australia. That's a lord. So like, 0:05:43.600 --> 0:05:46.040 this guy's a douche bag man. How dare him? He's 0:05:46.080 --> 0:05:48.600 detached from reality. That's not how we really live here 0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:51.840 in the outback. How dare you? All right? Next up 0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:55.680 on the mailbag, twizzle T, and he's saying hello to 0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:58.200 Ben and and to you, Danny H to me and 0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:00.640 you uh, he says, well and nice. First of all, 0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:03.040 twizzle T. By the review, he says, how do you 0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:05.880 handle when a neighbor parks on the street in front 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:08.600 of your house? I feel like I pay taxes on 0:06:08.720 --> 0:06:11.560 that stretch of road and we'll do what I can 0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:13.640 to prevent it. I'll hang up and listen. That's some 0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:16.800 twizzle T. So Twizzle T, it's a great thing. I'm 0:06:16.839 --> 0:06:18.560 glad you brought this up, because this is another one 0:06:18.600 --> 0:06:22.200 of those domestic disputes that we have, Danny, Like, we 0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:24.680 moved out in the north Woods now and it's a 0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:27.200 little different situation than we've had in the past. So 0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:30.200 there are people occasion that will park in front of 0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:35.440 the Mallard mansion. It drives me nuts, right because not 0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:38.320 that I own the space, it is the street. But 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:42.320 there are other places to park where you're not blocking someone, 0:06:42.480 --> 0:06:45.480 you're not in front of the house. And my wife's like, 0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:48.239 it doesn't matter, don't, don't who cares, you know, whatever 0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:50.080 there they have the right to park there, and I'm like, no, 0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:52.000 that's kind of annoying. It's kind of a douche move, 0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:55.840 you know, you know, and so I'm I'm I'm just 0:06:56.000 --> 0:06:59.080 like this guy, twizzle t. Where do you stand on 0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:03.280 this very important issue, Danny, When strangers are parking their 0:07:03.360 --> 0:07:06.320 car in front of your home, it depends how long 0:07:06.480 --> 0:07:09.840 they've parked there. Do they see it as long term parking, 0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:12.960 because then it's an issue. And if they try to 0:07:13.520 --> 0:07:15.920 park it right in front of your house long term, 0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:18.440 then you do what my stepdad did when I was 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:22.680 a kid. Stand out there with a really ugly look 0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:28.120 on your face and just observe the land. And he 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:29.960 would be I'm not kidding you, Ben, he would be 0:07:30.000 --> 0:07:34.600 out there for an hour staring at the cars, and 0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:38.520 so he was so ominous. He had such an aura 0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:41.400 about him in an asshole kind of way that it 0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:44.200 to toured people from parking right in front of our crib. 0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:49.040 So he had a scowl. Yeah, pretty much. He had 0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:51.480 that look on his face of I'm gonna fuck your 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:54.840 car up. Yeah, now I got one for you. When 0:07:54.840 --> 0:07:59.560 I lived in Hollywood or Hollywood Adjason, Uh, one of 0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:02.600 the name Abers was very possessive of the part. And 0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:04.040 I had like an apartment as it was kind of 0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:06.120 an apartment building, but there were houses mixed in in 0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:11.320 the neighborhood. And uh, this guy he got those you know, 0:08:11.400 --> 0:08:15.920 those orange construction traffic cones. Yeah, I don't know whether 0:08:16.000 --> 0:08:21.440 he stole them or not, but he had some and 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:26.560 uh yeah, he put it out. In fact, when we 0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:29.080 were having I I just remembered this. I can't believe 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:31.680 I forgot about this, but it's it's something that would 0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:34.640 apply to the story. So when we were renovating the 0:08:34.760 --> 0:08:41.760 Mallard mansion, the contractor had hired some guys that we're from, 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:45.800 from Menco. Right, So maybe they were maybe they had 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:47.640 their papers, maybe they did not have They were good 0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:50.960 hard working people and you know, the contractor hired him whatever, 0:08:51.880 --> 0:08:54.280 and they had a lot of trucks coming and going 0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:57.360 to work on the on the house, and so they 0:08:57.520 --> 0:08:59.640 put out We came to to look one day to 0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:02.439 see how the progress was going on the renovations, and 0:09:02.559 --> 0:09:05.800 there was an orange a couple of orange traffic cones, 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:09.839 but they had the name of a city that we 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:12.760 don't we don't live in, like the guys that's stolen 0:09:12.840 --> 0:09:16.160 it from another and it's like the city works for 0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:19.480 the name of the city that it was from. Uh. 0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:21.719 And I was like, you know, I think that's a 0:09:21.800 --> 0:09:24.199 dead giveaway. I don't I don't think it's hard to 0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:26.720 know that. I don't think that the police are going 0:09:26.800 --> 0:09:29.559 to arrest you for that or whatever. But it was 0:09:29.600 --> 0:09:31.439 pretty amusing when you pull up to look at the 0:09:31.520 --> 0:09:33.640 renovations and you see some orange cones in front of 0:09:33.640 --> 0:09:35.800 your house, and then you you see the city and 0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:38.160 it's not the city you're in. You know, it's like, 0:09:38.280 --> 0:09:40.920 what's going on there? Man? What's up with that? When 0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:46.760 the orange cone say Salt Lake, Like yeah, yeah, it's something, yeah, 0:09:47.040 --> 0:09:49.600 might be stolen. Yeah. When you look out your house 0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:51.679 you see Albuquerque, You're like, well, wait a minute, I 0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:57.199 don't leave an Albuquerque. Yeah, all right. Next up on 0:09:57.240 --> 0:10:00.240 the mailbag, these are actual questions by actual listening hers, 0:10:01.200 --> 0:10:03.400 and we do thank you for sending these in. I 0:10:03.520 --> 0:10:04.920 have a lot of fun with this every week, and 0:10:04.960 --> 0:10:07.120 we like that there's new people that are chiming in. 0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:11.200 It's great, too great to see that wonderful. Let's see 0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:15.920 Pat right, And he says, why is Angry Bill not 0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:20.440 banned for life? He's a dufus and can't answer questions 0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:24.200 any nine year old Garrold could. And he says, while 0:10:24.240 --> 0:10:27.360 you're at it, band blind Scott? What Blind Scott very 0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:35.200 polarizing in the Mallard militia, so so Pat Blind. I'm 0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:37.319 not gonna addrest the blind Scott mother Scott's Welcome to 0:10:37.360 --> 0:10:39.559 College show. He's done some crazy things. He's quite the 0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:42.839 character on the show, and he's done some douchey things. 0:10:42.920 --> 0:10:44.920 But overall, I think Scott's good for the show and 0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:46.719 I like him. He's a great character. He's done some 0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:49.880 crazy things around the streets of Boston. So and I've 0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:52.480 met him, I've hung out with him, and I knew Cramer. 0:10:52.520 --> 0:10:54.719 I don't know Dylan, but but I'm all for that. 0:10:54.840 --> 0:10:58.120 But in terms of Angry Bill, I didn't ban him 0:10:58.160 --> 0:11:00.520 for life. I just banned him from the game game shows. 0:11:01.760 --> 0:11:03.719 I don't know if you're aware of this, Danny, but 0:11:04.160 --> 0:11:06.439 we we every week we've played different games. As you know, 0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:09.839 Mallard's Mounting of Money and Angry Bill called it. We 0:11:09.880 --> 0:11:12.760 had a baseball heavy edition. So he calls up to 0:11:12.840 --> 0:11:18.760 play this douche canoe Angry Bill and the questions. It's 0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:20.920 on a sliding scale, so you start out with the 0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:22.719 easier questions and you work a way up to the 0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:29.200 hardest questions. Questions welcome to our world, and Angry Bills. 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:31.280 Oh yeah, I'll be fine. Whatever. Now, we did say 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:33.559 they were going to be mostly baseball questions, but the 0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:38.040 first two questions, we're let me see if you can 0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:41.079 get these right.

But I remember a whole bunch 0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:32.160 of kids at school rocking the Chris Mullen hair cut 0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:35.719 for a while, the buzz cut. Yeah. Yeah. When I 0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:38.480 was a kid, we went to the Bay Area for 0:12:38.800 --> 0:12:42.040 some kind of event. And this was when Mullen and 0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:47.280 Hardaway and Richmond were like the big stars. And I 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.480 was convinced based on how much attention that Warrior team 0:12:50.520 --> 0:12:52.199 was getting, that this was like the greatest team in 0:12:52.280 --> 0:12:55.120 the NBA. And like they were like so excited. People 0:12:55.160 --> 0:12:57.319 were like fired out. There were wearing Golden State Warrior 0:12:57.440 --> 0:13:00.280 jackets and hats and all that stuff. A round the 0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:01.839 Bay was like a big deal. And so I was like, 0:13:01.920 --> 0:13:03.360 oh man, this must be like a really good team. 0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:07.120 You know, there are a couple of runs here and there, 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:11.640 but anyway, um, so yeah, Pat Angry Bill has been 0:13:11.679 --> 0:13:14.360 banned from the game shows, but he's got no life. 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:15.719 If I banned him, I don't know what's going to 0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:18.839 happen to him. Gordon says, you guys are killing my 0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:23.600 sleep time. I now wake up at two am every night. 0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:29.640 Good stuff, right people, funny sticks? Well, thank you, Danny. 0:13:29.679 --> 0:13:31.120 Do you want to be the person to let Gordon 0:13:31.200 --> 0:13:32.920 know there's a podcast You don't have to get up 0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:34.920 at two in the morning every night. You can get 0:13:35.000 --> 0:13:37.559 up whenever you want and hear the podcast. Yeah, and 0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:39.880 I think that's a comment directed at your live show, 0:13:40.000 --> 0:13:44.400 not the podcast. But we get cross traffic from time 0:13:44.440 --> 0:13:48.400 to time. Speaking of which, I've mentioned that Mark the 0:13:48.480 --> 0:13:51.439 full name guy has been a caller on Covino and 0:13:51.559 --> 0:13:56.480 Rich crossover caller, crossover caller, god Ben. Some of the 0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:59.160 stuff that comes out of that guy's mouth, you would 0:13:59.200 --> 0:14:03.120 have loved it. Past week on the show, Linda Ronstad 0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:06.560 has been a topic of conversation. One of her hit 0:14:06.679 --> 0:14:09.520 songs from back in the Day has blown up again 0:14:10.120 --> 0:14:14.719 and has been downloaded by like five percent because it 0:14:14.920 --> 0:14:18.040 was on that hit TV show The Last of Us 0:14:18.120 --> 0:14:21.920 on HBO Max, and because of how it was on 0:14:22.080 --> 0:14:26.360 that episode three, everybody's been downloading the song and she's 0:14:26.400 --> 0:14:29.440 back in the news. So they're talking about this on 0:14:29.560 --> 0:14:34.960 the air and Mark calls up shares with the Fellas 0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:41.240 that he had an affair back in the day. Uh he. 0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:45.360 He claims he did not know it was her until 0:14:45.600 --> 0:14:54.200 she left. I'm not so sure that he's the perfect 0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:57.840 role model outside of football that he's made out to me, 0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:01.160 you know what. So Yt par of the business as 0:15:01.200 --> 0:15:03.480 part of the business that I don't like. So I 0:15:03.560 --> 0:15:05.240 don't really want to talk about it. He had a 0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:08.560 great career and I wish him luck. I didn't want 0:15:08.600 --> 0:15:12.000 to say, though I knew Whenda Ronstad were a very 0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:17.080 brief time lucky her. I don't know about it. I 0:15:17.120 --> 0:15:19.440 don't know how lucky she was. Did you quarter her? 0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:23.880 Did you, Mark? She walked away from me. I'll tell 0:15:23.920 --> 0:15:26.360 you that, Mark, Mark, come me ask you. You could 0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:28.800 tell the Fox Sports Radio Nation. But you gotta be honest, though, 0:15:28.920 --> 0:15:31.560 Did you make love to Linda that I knew Linda 0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:35.120 rons that I didn't even know I was with Linda 0:15:35.240 --> 0:15:38.600 Ronstadt un till a moment she walked away from me, Mark, 0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:40.120 I'll be honest. I would give you a fake name too, 0:15:42.000 --> 0:15:57.000 kind of Boisey Bob Man going, gentlemen, that's funny. You 0:15:57.120 --> 0:16:01.360 better get that bright here now, Mark, Mark. I I 0:16:01.480 --> 0:16:03.560 could send you a And I don't think he listens 0:16:03.560 --> 0:16:06.560 to the podcast, so it's kind of it's open season. 0:16:07.400 --> 0:16:09.960 A couple of things. I Marked the Full Name Guy. Uh, 0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:13.440 he's been banned from the show before for he got 0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:15.760 so upset with me. He talked about I think you 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:19.680 were with me when he talked about justifiable homicide for 0:16:19.800 --> 0:16:24.360 the things I said. And uh, yeah, so that's the 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:26.440 first thing that pops up when you think about Marked 0:16:26.440 --> 0:16:30.640 the Full Name Guy. He's much more mellow now as 0:16:30.800 --> 0:16:33.880 since he moved to Oregon and he left the hard 0:16:34.000 --> 0:16:41.520 scrabble streets behind, he's he's much more mellow and so 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:45.720 so that's good and he amazing that he landed in 0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:50.880 Genie's hometown. I know of all the place. And he 0:16:51.000 --> 0:16:53.680 was living in the Tenderloin district of San Francisco, which 0:16:53.760 --> 0:16:57.120 is an absolute rat hole, right, I mean it's it's 0:16:57.160 --> 0:16:59.720 a really bad part of San Francisco or there's a 0:16:59.760 --> 0:17:05.040 lot of debauchery going on and just sodom and gomorrah. 0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:07.760 And he got out of there and he moved, but 0:17:07.840 --> 0:17:10.200 he's sent me he's told me for years that he 0:17:10.280 --> 0:17:13.480 had an affair with Linda Ronstat, that the mob was 0:17:13.640 --> 0:17:17.520 chasing him, there's like seven or eight. Didn't realize So 0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:20.200 he's told you this story before. No, no, he has 0:17:20.280 --> 0:17:23.480 told me that story before. He's so who knows. Maybe 0:17:23.480 --> 0:17:25.480 he's some Do you think there might have been a 0:17:25.520 --> 0:17:27.880 woman because Lenda want Ronstad was a big deal back 0:17:27.960 --> 0:17:31.159 in her day, Yeah, you think you might might have 0:17:31.200 --> 0:17:33.119 been a woman that kind of looked like her. That 0:17:33.200 --> 0:17:36.680 as a gag when they ended the Flames, she like, yeah, yeah, 0:17:36.760 --> 0:17:41.000 by the way, I'm Linda Ronstad. How many other Mallard 0:17:41.040 --> 0:17:43.560 guys called the show? Has there anybody else? Do we 0:17:43.800 --> 0:17:47.920 any regulars that call? I think I've mentioned this before. 0:17:48.440 --> 0:17:51.880 It's just been him and Plastered Paul, plastered Paul. Yeah, 0:17:51.880 --> 0:17:53.920 he called the other day their play. He was completely 0:17:54.160 --> 0:17:59.440 gone snocker. I thought, I think this guy's a Rob 0:17:59.560 --> 0:18:04.800 Parker guy. There's a teacher from the Commonwealth. Andre. He 0:18:04.960 --> 0:18:07.240 loves calling sports radio. I think Andre. I think he 0:18:07.280 --> 0:18:09.400 calls Rob, though I don't think he calls He calls 0:18:09.600 --> 0:18:12.560 me and Rob. I think that's I think he's been 0:18:12.640 --> 0:18:15.840 on a time or two on every show. He gets 0:18:15.840 --> 0:18:19.200 Are you saying he gets around? Is that what you're saying? Yeah, 0:18:19.200 --> 0:18:23.080 A little bit around, Like we like people who listen 0:18:23.160 --> 0:18:26.880 to the entire network. Yeah, share with everybody. We're all 0:18:27.040 --> 0:18:30.080 one big, happy family unless we reach our bowling point 0:18:30.119 --> 0:18:32.840 and then we're not. But use your moniker, That's what 0:18:32.960 --> 0:18:36.720 I would say, because he calls up as market Medford. Yeah, 0:18:36.840 --> 0:18:39.480 don't hide from it, don't run away from And he's 0:18:39.520 --> 0:18:42.119 still the full name guy, although he probably doesn't know 0:18:42.400 --> 0:18:44.760 Covino and Rich's last name, so he can't be the 0:18:45.480 --> 0:18:49.400 full name guy with me. Is I Ben Mallard, Bed 0:18:49.520 --> 0:18:51.960 Maller or bed Baal or bed Baal or you know 0:18:52.119 --> 0:18:56.800 like that everything else? So anyway, next up on the mailbag, 0:18:56.880 --> 0:19:00.919 we have Kevin in Kansas, a regular contribute to this content. 0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:04.560 He feeds the content plate every week. He says, Ben 0:19:04.800 --> 0:19:08.879 and Danny g you both have vast awareness and appreciation 0:19:09.000 --> 0:19:12.320 of music from the earlier years of rock and roll. 0:19:12.480 --> 0:19:15.040 If you could go back and watch a performance of 0:19:15.200 --> 0:19:19.959 singers or groups no longer together or even alive, who 0:19:19.960 --> 0:19:22.440 would you like to see? So I would say, I'm 0:19:22.440 --> 0:19:24.480 gonna refer to you, Danny, because you really are the 0:19:24.600 --> 0:19:27.720 music guy as a as a DJ, I was briefly 0:19:27.800 --> 0:19:31.520 a DJ, but just in college, and I like music. 0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:33.240 I listen to music. I don't know that I have 0:19:33.359 --> 0:19:36.200 the music gene, so you would be the better guy. 0:19:36.240 --> 0:19:37.879 He answers, I will answer it, but I want you 0:19:38.000 --> 0:19:39.440 to go first on this one, so you're in the 0:19:39.480 --> 0:19:43.000 battess box right right. So I would have Johnny Cash 0:19:43.800 --> 0:19:47.639 open for Tupac, who then has Biggie joined him on 0:19:47.840 --> 0:19:52.040 stage for a duet just like that. Boom done, Boom, 0:19:52.800 --> 0:19:56.720 John and Cash, Tupac Biggie. Well, I definitely have Johnny 0:19:56.800 --> 0:20:01.640 Cash on my my list. I'm also curious. I've heard 0:20:01.720 --> 0:20:04.320 stories since I was a little boy about Elvis Presley, 0:20:05.080 --> 0:20:09.119 so I wonder, like Elvis before he became fat Elvis Like, 0:20:10.160 --> 0:20:12.200 not that I necessarily like a huge fan of his music, 0:20:12.280 --> 0:20:14.520 but I wonder what that was like like when he 0:20:15.200 --> 0:20:21.080 became a thing. So Johnny Cash, Elvis, and as far 0:20:21.160 --> 0:20:24.800 as like a band, who would would think of the 0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:27.480 biggest I guess would be the Beatles, but any of 0:20:27.560 --> 0:20:31.200 those rock bands over the years that really took off 0:20:31.600 --> 0:20:33.880 in the early days before they kind of took off. 0:20:34.520 --> 0:20:38.560 When I think about falling soldiers in in rock music, 0:20:38.680 --> 0:20:42.399 I mean Kurt Cobain comes to mind, because we were 0:20:42.480 --> 0:20:44.280 kids at the time, so it never got to see 0:20:44.359 --> 0:20:49.080 Nirvan alive. Um also a big Stone Temple Pilots fan 0:20:49.680 --> 0:20:52.920 from back in the day, and their lead singer unfortunately 0:20:53.040 --> 0:20:56.399 passed away. I did get to see him perform once, 0:20:56.920 --> 0:21:01.200 but it was for Velvet Revolver, not Stone Pilots. So 0:21:01.520 --> 0:21:03.960 I would like to go back in time and see 0:21:04.040 --> 0:21:08.679 him play live with Stone Temple Pilots. Absolutely all right, 0:21:08.720 --> 0:21:11.760 thank you Kevin for that. Next up, Kyrie in Okay 0:21:11.880 --> 0:21:14.120 see Rights and he says, shout out to the best 0:21:14.280 --> 0:21:17.920 weekend podcast crew out there. Well, it's very nice. Thank you, 0:21:18.400 --> 0:21:20.840 hands down, he says, thanks for all your advice and 0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:24.000 hard work you guys do I know I speak for 0:21:24.080 --> 0:21:27.520 the entire militia of our appreciation and love for you 0:21:27.640 --> 0:21:32.040 guys all week and weekend long. Anyway, you guys make 0:21:32.119 --> 0:21:35.760 me laugh and get through hard times with my bipolar 0:21:36.480 --> 0:21:40.920 or chores around the house or whatever, a busybody stuff 0:21:40.920 --> 0:21:43.480 that I think they call that adulting, right, the chores 0:21:43.560 --> 0:21:46.960 and stuff you gotta do, it's adulting what he likes that. 0:21:47.119 --> 0:21:50.800 My question is what are your escapes when you're mad 0:21:51.119 --> 0:21:54.119 or upset? What do you listen to or watch to 0:21:54.680 --> 0:21:58.560 make you you guys feel better. You guys are therapeutic 0:21:58.680 --> 0:22:01.119 to me once again, thank for everything you do. I 0:22:01.240 --> 0:22:05.880 much love from Kyrie in Oksey. Thank you Kyrie, very 0:22:06.000 --> 0:22:08.760 kind of you. So I'm a big food guy. I 0:22:08.800 --> 0:22:10.720 don't need a lot anymore because I'm on this O 0:22:10.840 --> 0:22:13.360 Cockta diet, this in a minute fasting. But when I'm 0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:19.159 depressed or someone i know sick or dying or dies, 0:22:19.840 --> 0:22:23.040 I I immediately go to comfort food, Danny. That's my thing. 0:22:23.160 --> 0:22:26.560 That's that makes me feel better. It's not necessarily listening 0:22:26.640 --> 0:22:30.480 to anything or watching anything. It's eating something that makes 0:22:30.520 --> 0:22:36.000 me feel better, and also going for a nice walk 0:22:36.119 --> 0:22:38.920 and kind of clearing my head. Um, those would be 0:22:39.760 --> 0:22:41.159 it would be the two things that I do. I 0:22:41.200 --> 0:22:45.600 would say more times than anything. What about you. It's 0:22:45.600 --> 0:22:48.840 funny that we were just talking about Kurt Cobain because 0:22:48.960 --> 0:22:52.800 he's inspired me over the years to take up heroin. 0:22:52.960 --> 0:23:01.680 Whenever I'm upset, I'm on drugs right now, man, Yeah 0:23:02.359 --> 0:23:07.560 uh no, Um, you know it's music for me. I 0:23:07.640 --> 0:23:11.560 will put on some really good hip hop. I'll put 0:23:11.640 --> 0:23:14.880 on some classic wrap, I'll put on some gangs to wrap. 0:23:15.480 --> 0:23:21.000 If I'm upset, put on West Side Connection, um, and 0:23:21.080 --> 0:23:25.000 then I'll also play some alternative rocks. So it just depends. 0:23:25.119 --> 0:23:28.440 But I think music for me and driving fast like 0:23:28.600 --> 0:23:31.080 that's a good outlet. You know. If I could have 0:23:31.200 --> 0:23:33.720 a racetrack, I don't know what it is, but when 0:23:33.760 --> 0:23:36.640 you really put your foot on the gas pedal, it's 0:23:36.720 --> 0:23:39.800 such a good feeling in it and it gets all 0:23:39.840 --> 0:23:42.520 the crap out of your system. Well, it's like a 0:23:42.680 --> 0:23:45.960 time machine. You're you're going fast through time. You're you're 0:23:46.560 --> 0:23:50.160 navigating your way through. Yeah. I feel like NASCAR drivers, 0:23:50.680 --> 0:23:53.760 whatever is on their mind or weighing on their shoulders 0:23:54.240 --> 0:23:57.800 after a race, they must feel free from a lot 0:23:57.880 --> 0:24:01.160 of that because they got that hug, your adrenaline rush. 0:24:01.800 --> 0:24:03.439 You want to be in the fast and furious if 0:24:03.480 --> 0:24:05.000 they make another one of those, Danny want to be 0:24:05.040 --> 0:24:06.720 in that the next thing. I would love to drive 0:24:06.800 --> 0:24:08.560
