Speaker 1: Kaboom. If you thought four hours a day, minutes a
Speaker 1: week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants of
Speaker 1: the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He treats
Speaker 1: crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as the rich
Speaker 1: pill poppers in the penthouse, the Clearinghouse of hot takes
Speaker 1: break free for something special. The Fifth Hour with Ben
Speaker 1: Maller starts right now in the air everywhere, and a
Speaker 1: very good Sunday to you if you're listening the day
Speaker 1: this podcast drops. It is the Fifth Hour with Ben
Speaker 1: Maller and Danny g Radio, and it's all about the
Speaker 1: mail bag, which we're gonna get to in a moment.
Speaker 1: Danny g As, we have had a big weekend here. Friday,
Speaker 1: David Vasse, the man that went viral, went down a
Speaker 1: slide in Milwaukee and gave us the inside skinny. I'd
Speaker 1: never heard the details that he had actually gone down
Speaker 1: the slide twice. He actually succeeded the first time, didn't
Speaker 1: get hurt, and it was the second time, all for television.
Speaker 1: He ends up breaking six ribs in his wrist. And
Speaker 1: but he's a he's a legend now, he's a viral star.
Speaker 1: Not many people can say they've had a viral moment
Speaker 1: where the New York Post TMZ, all the tabloids they
Speaker 1: were writing about him. He's a big deal now. They
Speaker 1: made the T shirt go get it out of the Ocean,
Speaker 1: and they made the vasse a T shirt with him
Speaker 1: holding up his cast. Uh, that's that's rare ground. And
Speaker 1: I then I gotta say this really quick. That was
Speaker 1: some of the best investigative reporting you've done on the podcast.
Speaker 1: That's my audition tape to go to sixty minutes or
Speaker 1: whatever whatever the new investigative show is. I don't know that.
Speaker 1: When I was a kid, it was sixty minutes. But
Speaker 1: but yeah, no, I was really into it. We did
Speaker 1: frame by frame coverage what happened. Everybody on sixty minutes died. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're all that. But the waiver he had to sign
Speaker 1: the waiver. Uh. He talked about Mookie Bets giving him
Speaker 1: a hug. That was kind of cool, the Dodger guys
Speaker 1: checking on him, and that was met the human side
Speaker 1: of some of these multimillionaire ball players and it was great.
Speaker 1: So if you didn't hear that, go back and download
Speaker 1: that on the Friday podcast. Let me tell you Dannagy.
Speaker 1: The The deal on this is that Vasse has set
Speaker 1: like download records. I mentioned this on the podcast. I'm
Speaker 1: not exaggerated like Dodger Talk. The show that he does,
Speaker 1: it gets insane downloads every month. So maybe we'll benefit
Speaker 1: from that, like in an indirect way having Vessey on,
Speaker 1: we'll get some of those download numbers from that. Lots
Speaker 1: of dog groupies, yeah, for sure, for sure. So before
Speaker 1: we get to the mailback though, I wanted to go
Speaker 1: back to the Saturday podcast. Jay Scoop posted a nice
Speaker 1: message on the backscratchers segment, and you can do that
Speaker 1: as well on the Apple podcast page. Just write a
Speaker 1: review and helps us out. So he announced this week
Speaker 1: he has been a relationship for a long time. In fact,
Speaker 1: I met his his girlfriend when I was in Seattle.
Speaker 1: We had a meal together. Very nice woman. But they've
Speaker 1: gone their separate ways. There were some issues. They disagreed
Speaker 1: on some very important things, and so they decided to
Speaker 1: depart ways. And so Jay Scoop is back on the market,
Speaker 1: and he hasn't been on the market for a long time.
Speaker 1: And he said, I need some advice. He can I
Speaker 1: have Danny g give me some. Now he's going to
Speaker 1: be at this event, or he was at the event
Speaker 1: I should say, on Friday, so he probably already came
Speaker 1: up to you. So this is like after the fact advice,
Speaker 1: But this is for the other people out there, any
Speaker 1: last second tinderon e tips that Danny G can give
Speaker 1: to a guy like Jay Scoop who was in a
Speaker 1: relationship for a long time and now he's back out
Speaker 1: trying to catch a nice young lady. Yeah, I would say,
Speaker 1: you don't want to get too serious too fast with
Speaker 1: anyone been. Don't jump into some rebound because your mind
Speaker 1: is not even clear yet, you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's the rebound, you know, the old the bouncy bouncy
Speaker 1: bouncy bounds have a huge basket by just enjoy yourself,
Speaker 1: have fun, do things, go out and meet new friends.
Speaker 1: Things will fall into place. Everything is better after you've
Speaker 1: had some time and look yourself in the mirror and
Speaker 1: do your ship even better. And then you're really ready
Speaker 1: after that to meet somebody that's going to be the
Speaker 1: right person long term. Yeah, Jay Scoop is in good
Speaker 1: shape here. He's a He's a talented guy, very easy musician.
Speaker 1: You know, Danny Women I'm in a time of stereotype.
Speaker 1: I believe I will speak for women. They enjoy a musician.
Speaker 1: They like the man that can perform music for them.
Speaker 1: That's a that's a nice thing. You're not wrong. If
Speaker 1: you whip out a guitar, you have that girl's attention.
Speaker 1: Better be able to play it, might be able to
Speaker 1: something else out, you know what I'm saying. All right, anyway,
Speaker 1: all right, thank you. Lame jokes are on Friday. We
Speaker 1: you've got the mail bag, and that means our guy, Ohio.
Speaker 1: All it's all right, good job, Ohio. All So, let's
Speaker 1: get right to it. These are actual questions by actual
Speaker 1: listeners to the show, and uh let's start out with
Speaker 1: this one. By the way, before we get into it,
Speaker 1: you can email your question right now. You don't have
Speaker 1: to wait for me to post something on Facebook, which

Speaker 1: I'm awake. Real fifth hour at gmail dot com. Spell
Speaker 1: it out Real Fifth Hour at gmail dot com, and
Speaker 1: we may read your question on the podcast Nick in
Speaker 1: Wisconsin nights In. As we go right to the mail bag,
Speaker 1: I got mail, Yeah, I got mail. Yeah, he says,
Speaker 1: Benn and Danny, gy, if you could go back and
Speaker 1: play a sport that you didn't get to play growing up,
Speaker 1: what would it be and why? I wish that we
Speaker 1: would have had lacrosse up here. Thanks. That's from from
Speaker 1: Nick Well. I I did get to play a little
Speaker 1: bit of the sports I loved. There's nothing I didn't
Speaker 1: get to play that I wish I had played. I
Speaker 1: wish well, I used that I love baseball. I didn't
Speaker 1: play in high school and because I wasn't that great
Speaker 1: at it, but I would have loved to have done
Speaker 1: it in high school. Would have been fun. But I
Speaker 1: played football. I played a little basketball for one year
Speaker 1: in high school, So I dabbled in that. Um trying
Speaker 1: to think like maybe something in the water, if I
Speaker 1: knew how to surf or something like that, that would
Speaker 1: be kind of cool. What about you, Danny, anything that
Speaker 1: you wish you could do that you didn't do. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this one's easy, except this sport wasn't around when we
Speaker 1: were in school pickle ball, pickle ball, pickle ball. But
Speaker 1: Google just google it. You kids just google it. Uh.
Speaker 1: Though the kids know what it is, some adults don't know,
Speaker 1: but some do. Ben because there's actually an adult pickle
Speaker 1: ball league in this area. You play with a tennis net.
Speaker 1: It's a cross between bad mitton and tennis. Okay, I'm
Speaker 1: looking at a special whiffle ball is used and it's
Speaker 1: almost like paddles for the rackets. Oh man, that looks
Speaker 1: too much like tennis. Though that might be a pain
Speaker 1: in the ass. I don't know. Fun, it's a lot
Speaker 1: of fun. And when you play with the kids, they
Speaker 1: think they're gonna smoke you right away, just because you're older.
Speaker 1: I not only held my own I was spiking that
Speaker 1: ball down on the kids because we grew up, you know,
Speaker 1: trying to learn how to play tennis. So we got
Speaker 1: some of those skills in the back hand and all
Speaker 1: that does take a lot of in dotty you though,
Speaker 1: according to the Internet, pickleball was invented in nineteen sixty five,
Speaker 1: so it's really not that old. A children's backyard game
Speaker 1: in Bainbridge Island, Washington. Yeah, and and did you know, Danny,
Speaker 1: you probably did because you're a pickleball guy. In two
Speaker 1: this year, pickle ball was adopted as the official state
Speaker 1: sport of Washington. Did not know that. I know that
Speaker 1: there's leagues and teams popping up across the country. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's an American Pickleball Association. That's crazy. You know who
Speaker 1: would love this, Our friend Pierre and and Alf the
Speaker 1: adianal Piner would love love pickle ball because they're all
Speaker 1: about the pickle They're all in bed. At my middle school,
Speaker 1: they do a pickleball tournament. Kids are up there for days.
Speaker 1: They signed their teams up and there was a prize
Speaker 1: at the end of it. Their pickle ball crazy. They
Speaker 1: love the pickle ball. I what about cornhole? I think
Speaker 1: cornhole's an under a rated thing. It's not really a sport,
Speaker 1: but it's a fun thing. Yeah, that's right. Mike from
Speaker 1: East of the four oh five rights, and he says,
Speaker 1: after you had another shameless cheating scandal on the weekday show,
Speaker 1: this might be Mike from Fullerton Possible. He says, after
Speaker 1: another cheating scan on the weekday Show that Danny g
Speaker 1: witnessed firsthand. I have a question about cheaters. Have either
Speaker 1: of you caught someone cheating outside the show before, like
Speaker 1: in a board game, poker, or a sport. I'll go first, yes, Mike.
Speaker 1: In fact, I was there in attendance in the seventeen
Speaker 1: World Series when the Houston Strows were cheating against the
Speaker 1: Dodgers in the World Series. That is scumbags. Uh. And
Speaker 1: they were doing it on the road, they were doing
Speaker 1: it at home. Baseball covered up, they downplayed the damage.
Speaker 1: They ran interference for him. But they were cheating everywhere. Uh,
Speaker 1: the Strows, that's the big one. But as far as
Speaker 1: like board game stuff, yeah, back back in the day,
Speaker 1: you'd see like Monopoly trying to people trying to sneak
Speaker 1: a little extra house here and there. Uh, what about you, Danny.
Speaker 1: As a kid, we lived in the Bay Area after
Speaker 1: we left l A the season Jose Conseco went for yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: tickets to the A's games that season. So I witnessed cheating, right,
Speaker 1: that's true. That's true. Did you want witness anyone in
Speaker 1: the upper deck of the Colosseum getting a tongue bath?
Speaker 1: Did you witness any of that? I was at the
Speaker 1: age where I would have been confused and I would
Speaker 1: have been asking questions, what what's that? What are they
Speaker 1: doing up there? That is there milking the cow? Is
Speaker 1: that what's going on there? That does not look like
Speaker 1: a cow? I don't Yeah. And if you don't know
Speaker 1: what Ben's talking about, go to the internet and you'll
Speaker 1: see the uh the viral, the virus video. What happened
Speaker 1: up top at an Oakland A's game. Let's just say
Speaker 1: it gives new meaning to the A suck this. Yes,
Speaker 1: there was a lot of sucking and the the A
Speaker 1: is really blow They really do there. She blows. That's
Speaker 1: a term when you see a whale. That's a fishing term.
Speaker 1: Right there, she blows that. You say, they're moving on
Speaker 1: on the mail bag. Let's see yo yo ma Benny Uh.
Speaker 1: The email begins from our friend in uh in Tennessee says,
Speaker 1: has Real Talk ever tried to call after his suspension
Speaker 1: from the show? If he did call when you put
Speaker 1: him on the air, so a Real Talk to my knowledge,
Speaker 1: has not tried to call the show. Uh. He called
Speaker 1: me at a time I had just come back, my
Speaker 1: father had passed away. He made made a few insensitive
Speaker 1: comments and we we gave him what originally was a
Speaker 1: six month band from the show and just has turned
Speaker 1: into over two years off the year. But yeah, if
Speaker 1: he called up and was somewhat apologetic, I would I
Speaker 1: would put him on here. I I don't have an issue.
Speaker 1: He would always do the same, stick with real talks,
Speaker 1: standard call for those who don't know real talk. He
Speaker 1: was one of my regular callers from New York. This
Speaker 1: may be my last call I'll ever make. And he
Speaker 1: got married. I think what happened is he just got
Speaker 1: married and he just stopped because a lot of guys
Speaker 1: when they get married, they can't keep listening to the
Speaker 1: show and participating. I don't think he was working overnights anymore.
Speaker 1: I think that's what all right. But but anyway, he
Speaker 1: would call up, he'd do a kind of a normal call.
Speaker 1: He'd ask questions, and he'd like, hey, Eddie, what do
Speaker 1: you think about barbecued ribs? And then he'd be okay, well, good, good,
Speaker 1: good good, And he'd asked Cooper question in Roberto, and
Speaker 1: then at some point he would ask the most obscene,
Speaker 1: offensive question he could possibly ask, and then we'd have
Speaker 1: to hang him up, hang up on him. And you
Speaker 1: were with me, of course, Dan that so I was
Speaker 1: there when he was a reigning caller of the year. Yeah,
Speaker 1: highly decorated. In fact, the Golden Ticket began with he
Speaker 1: was like, the US gotta get it, and we gave
Speaker 1: him one and he called right back the next segment,
Speaker 1: get back on the air. That was awesome, may he
Speaker 1: he and I kind of put that idea together. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And we rewarded him with the very first one, back up,
Speaker 1: back up, get jack up, catch up? All right? Alan
Speaker 1: and Akarin Ohio rights and he says, Danny g why
Speaker 1: do you use different sign offs like later skater and
Speaker 1: hosta pasta? Most broadcasters used the same one every time.
Speaker 1: We like to mix it up. Man, You don't just
Speaker 1: do one podcast. You blow the competition out of the
Speaker 1: water by doing three podcasts. Yes, exactly, exactly. So I
Speaker 1: gotta keep people on their toes, and we're we have
Speaker 1: routines and we kind of do same segments and some
Speaker 1: of our famous sayings, but you can't just predict which
Speaker 1: one is coming because we have a few of them.
Speaker 1: I love the fact that this has been in Alan's
Speaker 1: head long enough where he's like, I gotta get an answer.
Speaker 1: I got us in the message in because I it's
Speaker 1: killing me. Why I hear hasta pasta or asta pasta
Speaker 1: or whatever, and later skip. And also after I do that,
Speaker 1: I rotate either by Felicia or of course the famous one.
Speaker 1: Roberto still uses gotta murder, gotta go oh, yes, our
Speaker 1: buddy in Florida. Yeah, And sometimes to really keep you
Speaker 1: on your toes, I throw helmet man in there where
Speaker 1: he says one more thing, man, what do you think
Speaker 1: about the orioles? Well, there are so many of those.
Speaker 1: I had a guy, the Duke guy, that wanted to
Speaker 1: propose to his lady on the show, and he did.
Speaker 1: And then he had done the proposal and he says,
Speaker 1: can I still talk about duke or something like that.
Speaker 1: It was so so ridiculous, so so stupid here. But
Speaker 1: you know, we're just trying to get along, you know.
Speaker 1: Don't be rude. We don't want to be rude. We
Speaker 1: don't want to be rude at all. Now, this is
Speaker 1: a question from the past, so we're gonna go on
Speaker 1: the way back machine. This next one's from Johnny, and
Speaker 1: he wanted to know, are you all gonna live stream
Speaker 1: the meet up? We've already had the meet up. I
Speaker 1: had no plans to live stream the meet up, Danny,
Speaker 1: So this is us in the future. Right now and so,
Speaker 1: but we don't exactly know what happened in the past. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we don't know. Eddie has been known to randomly turn
Speaker 1: on a camera and take some really awkward photos. Terry
Speaker 1: from England Rights and he says, did you have any
Speaker 1: inspirational teachers at school? Of course, Terry list, I would
Speaker 1: not be where I am without teachers pushing me along
Speaker 1: in certain directions. I had Mr Zeke uh Carl, I
Speaker 1: actually I called him Mr Carl, but he was a
Speaker 1: great guy. And uh I had a problem of actually
Speaker 1: getting up early to go to school, so I I
Speaker 1: hated getting up in the morning. I was not a
Speaker 1: morning I'm still not a morning person, but uh he
Speaker 1: was a really good influence on me. I had a
Speaker 1: speech teacher in high school also kind of like really
Speaker 1: not more debate than speech and Mr Laura I believe
Speaker 1: was his name, and he if I remember correctly, but
Speaker 1: but he was really cool, like he just like was
Speaker 1: neat and it was one of those classes where you
Speaker 1: don't feel like you're in school, and it's really hard
Speaker 1: when you're a kid. Because I was a bad not
Speaker 1: a bad stuit. I just didn't like getting up early
Speaker 1: for school and like when you were in a class
Speaker 1: where it didn't feel like you were in school, like
Speaker 1: those were the greatest class, Like you were doing stuff,
Speaker 1: but it didn't feel like it. And it's very hard.
Speaker 1: There's an art to it. I know, Danny, you're a
Speaker 1: teacher and you do that stuff. So if you can
Speaker 1: get to that level where the kids don't really feel
Speaker 1: like they're in school, you will be their favorite teacher
Speaker 1: and you will you will be someone they talk about
Speaker 1: when they're middle aged people. You will, Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like I I have a group of
Speaker 1: kids in one of the morning classes where when they
Speaker 1: finish their bookwork or now their chromebook work, I let
Speaker 1: them play the we oh yeah, they're playing Super Mario
Speaker 1: Brothers and it the you know, it's the Week Controllers.
Speaker 1: So it's really fun to play Mario Brothers. Like that.
Speaker 1: They think I'm the coolest person alive. Of course, that'll
Speaker 1: change once they get, you know, in trouble for something.
Speaker 1: But no, you're right. I mean we think back to
Speaker 1: teachers that made it kind of this awesome little world
Speaker 1: that we stepped inside, got out of the bullshit away
Speaker 1: from home, and we were able to step into something
Speaker 1: that was more entertaining. I had a teacher like that,
Speaker 1: Mrs Johnson. Her class was amazing. She was an amazing
Speaker 1: teacher to this day. I think about the books she
Speaker 1: read to us, some of the things she did with
Speaker 1: the class. And she even did little cool field trips
Speaker 1: to where we got to have a party that she
Speaker 1: threw in her backyard and she made the ice cream herself,
Speaker 1: and I thought that was the coolest shit ever. Nextually,
Speaker 1: I know, I just saw this white thing flying at
Speaker 1: my face. Are you sure she did or she just
Speaker 1: telling you that? No, No, she had that actual machine
Speaker 1: that made the ice cream. And I thought, oh, I'm
Speaker 1: coming from the inner city. At that point, I'm like,
Speaker 1: they make their own ice cream over here. This I
Speaker 1: want to live here. That's awesome. Teachers have quotas Danny
Speaker 1: like police officers have. Police officers have to write a
Speaker 1: certain number of tickets, even though they say they don't like.
Speaker 1: If you're a teacher, are you allowed to pass every
Speaker 1: one of your students? Can you do you have to
Speaker 1: give some bad grades? Do they get upset if you
Speaker 1: give everyone good grades? How does that work? That's a
Speaker 1: good question. I think that sort of pressure goes to
Speaker 1: the pe teachers because the parents all expect their kid
Speaker 1: to pass PE. How are you gonna fail PE? How
Speaker 1: are you gonna get fired on your day off? It's true, though,
Speaker 1: if you don't do well in PE, I mean, it's
Speaker 1: like the easiest thing that you pass, go collect two
Speaker 1: hundred dollars, the parents will come complain. I've seen the
Speaker 1: PE coaches in meetings in the main office because the
Speaker 1: principal or the vice principle is trying to get that
Speaker 1: mail bumped up, and I feel bad for the pet
Speaker 1: E cher. I'm like, man, they're not allowed to fail anybody.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's brutal alright, next up on the mail bags.
Speaker 1: See here, any meany money? Yes we do. Jennifer, our
Speaker 1: friend in Richmond, Virginia unable. She was unable to attend
Speaker 1: the Mallard meet and Greek, but she will come hang
Speaker 1: out with us. At some point. She says, Hello, Benn
Speaker 1: and Danny gy. Imagine you are on a frisbee golf
Speaker 1: course with creeks, meadows, trees, and small leggs. If you
Speaker 1: were gonna have an unusually bad throw, would you rather
Speaker 1: have your frisbee land and sink into the murky mossy
Speaker 1: knee deep mosquito infested creek, or right next to it
Speaker 1: a huge, scary looking, long talent, sharp beaked alpha goose.
Speaker 1: Who you must get that frisbee back since it's your
Speaker 1: best one. Which do you prefer, man, I've had some
Speaker 1: bad runnings with those geese. Man, those things are bastards.
Speaker 1: I would go mosquito because I have been beaten by
Speaker 1: so many mosquitoes. I feel like it wouldn't really impact
Speaker 1: me at all. What say you, Danny G I say,
Speaker 1: what kind of damn creative question? Was that? I wanted
Speaker 1: her to share some of the stuff she's spoken was
Speaker 1: Jennifer was on a She was actually out. She was
Speaker 1: having a meeting with Joe Rogan and her friend Aaron Rodgers,
Speaker 1: and they were having some ayahuasca. Came up with that.
Speaker 1: Very unusual that she would send that out, but she was.
Speaker 1: She was on the psychedelics. Good for you, Jennifer lived
Speaker 1: your best life, young lady. Good job by you. I
Speaker 1: think mushrooms taste gross smoke weed al right. Next one
Speaker 1: from Angelina, she writes, and she says, has been a
Speaker 1: while since I've written, but I still listen to the
Speaker 1: podcast and show consistently. I haven't had something to write
Speaker 1: up until now. I thought of the issue. I am
Speaker 1: a word person says and kind of pay attention to
Speaker 1: how people say, which is one of the reasons I
Speaker 1: really like your show and the podcast. You were all great. Anyway,
Speaker 1: I wanted to get your take on a few things
Speaker 1: in a couple of the ads. Have you noticed in
Speaker 1: the link Soul Clothing at it says that their garments
Speaker 1: are breathable and it would take days to put holes
Speaker 1: in your clothes if you did it yourself. M She writes,
Speaker 1: Uh no, I think it could only take seconds to
Speaker 1: put holes in my clothes if I wanted to. It's
Speaker 1: such an odd line. Maybe I am missing something. This
Speaker 1: is especially funny because on Tuesday, Chloe, the eleven year old,
Speaker 1: came out of the bathroom with pants that she had
Speaker 1: just destroyed with scissors on man, Yeah, because she could
Speaker 1: not cut enough holes into these jeans. Yeah, well, how
Speaker 1: did you handle? How did how did the Her mom
Speaker 1: just rolled her eyes and she's like, look at Chloe's
Speaker 1: new jeans. The most amazing part of that, as as
Speaker 1: is obviously referencing they sell those things for an ungodly
Speaker 1: amount of money, right, Yeah, they charge you extra, which
Speaker 1: is like we did the scissor work, you lazy ex
Speaker 1: gens or whatever the gen x is or whatever the
Speaker 1: hell you're called. Yeah, so let me answer the question
Speaker 1: this way, Angela, and I'll go back to my studying
Speaker 1: of infomercials. I have read several books on infomercials. We
Speaker 1: tried to get Mr Poppel on rom Popel but he
Speaker 1: died before he could come on. Well he actually turned
Speaker 1: this down a couple of times before he could come on.
Speaker 1: But that guys, the o Gas passed away. Well he
Speaker 1: was also a thousand years old. But but the key
Speaker 1: to and informers, right, the key is this is going
Speaker 1: to make your life easier, right that even if it's
Speaker 1: not right, it's like the late Billy mays Hi bill
Speaker 1: Amaze here and uh, the fastest easiest way to solve
Speaker 1: your problem, guaranteed order. Right now, operators are standing by
Speaker 1: that kind of thing. You know what the newest thing
Speaker 1: is for those that you just impersonated on the screen,
Speaker 1: It flashes not available on Amazon, not available on Amazon. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like listen, I will loser I when I go to
Speaker 1: like Walmart or Target. I I gravitate my wife if
Speaker 1: I walk away from her. It's to see the as
Speaker 1: scene on TV section at Walmart or Target. But I've
Speaker 1: studied so again the point of this, it's just basic marketing, Angeline.
Speaker 1: But you probably already do this year a smart woman.
Speaker 1: But it's just to sell a product. Most people think
Speaker 1: you have to tell the consumer there's a problem and
Speaker 1: this is going to make your life easier. And if
Speaker 1: you notice that, pretty much every commercial that we do
Speaker 1: is the same problem solution. Uh, we're gonna save you
Speaker 1: more money than everyone else, right, or this product will
Speaker 1: make your life much easier because of X, Y and Z,
Speaker 1: And so you know that's how it works, and it's
Speaker 1: just basic advertising. She also says, riddle me this. In
Speaker 1: the five hour Energy at it says that you have
Speaker 1: to take a picture of the receipt to upload it
Speaker 1: to win. But don't you have to purchase? He says.
Speaker 1: They say you don't have to purchase anything, But how
Speaker 1: does that make sense? Exactly exactly, exactly exactly, And she
Speaker 1: also points out we had a call. She says, ps,
Speaker 1: I got the card that is advertised on your show.
Speaker 1: I certainly knew the answer to that question you asked
Speaker 1: a caller recently, but I guess not everyone does. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that amazes me. I do on a given night around
Speaker 1: twenty discover card commercials in four hours live reads. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and we had a caller. I forget who it was,
Speaker 1: but I said, this I all know is Marcel. I
Speaker 1: think it was Marcel, And I said, brought to you
Speaker 1: by and no, I no, no clue, you know, speaking
Speaker 1: a different language. Well that's why they need one every
Speaker 1: hour or two or five? Yeah, yeah, I think it's
Speaker 1: five an hour. I think something like that. Pierre is
Speaker 1: next up, not working from home like Ferg doog Boy.
Speaker 1: There's a rivalry, Danny, there's a rivalry. And will we
Speaker 1: lose Pierre or furg Dog because we did lose the
Speaker 1: power couple, well not the power couple of the the
Speaker 1: couple in uh in Palmetto Bay. Uh. They've not been
Speaker 1: party to the show in some time here. And I
Speaker 1: hope everything's okay there, but I don't know. I don't
Speaker 1: know what happened. It's kind of vanished. Pierre. This is
Speaker 1: not working from home like fur Dog. I'd like to
Speaker 1: preface my question by admitting that I stole it from
Speaker 1: another podcast. There you uh and Ben, before you go
Speaker 1: all Benny the baker cookie snob on me original chips
Speaker 1: ahoy or original oreo. Alright, so, first of all, Pierre,
Speaker 1: this is not that hard. I became morbidly obese powered
Speaker 1: by chips ahoy. Now I am not against the oriole.
Speaker 1: I am not anti Oreo. I enjoy a good pack
Speaker 1: of Oreos. I could take a sleeve of oreos and
Speaker 1: eat that thing within ten minutes. But the chips ahoy,
Speaker 1: and that and milk, Oh my god, you're living your
Speaker 1: best life right there. So I was all about the
Speaker 1: chips ahoy. Uh. The orioles I was okay with, but
Speaker 1: I usually had I was the original double stack guy.
Speaker 1: Now he sell those double a triple stack, but she
Speaker 1: ended up breaking him apart. The stack with the extra frosting,
Speaker 1: the filling in that, I says. I can already hear
Speaker 1: you going off on the rails about your homemade snickerdoodles
Speaker 1: or the Gara Deli chocolate chip ice sandwich. Yeah, now
Speaker 1: that's the ice cream Sunday, the gett Danny g Danny
Speaker 1: Gearadeli's ice cream Sunday. The cookie Sunday at Gara Delis
Speaker 1: is the single greatest dessert I've ever had in my life.
Speaker 1: And I've eaten desserts all over the United States, and
Speaker 1: I've never had a better dessert in the Cookie Sunday
Speaker 1: at Gara Delis I had. I was in Chicago back
Speaker 1: in in May. I told the story on the podcast Danny.
Speaker 1: They had a Gara Delis right next to the Chicago
Speaker 1: River and I stopped there and I had my Cookie
Speaker 1: Sunday and I was the happiest I could be. And
Speaker 1: you remember I told you my aunt she put that
Speaker 1: on the on the menu. Yeah, she left her mark.
Speaker 1: And I gotta say, Ben, famous Amos, those little bags
Speaker 1: we get out of do not see that as an
Speaker 1: option though you're going off the board. I'm going off
Speaker 1: the board those many famous amos that come in the
Speaker 1: snack sized bags out of our vending machine at the studios.
Speaker 1: Just that little bag can power me through one hour
Speaker 1: of the Jason Smith Show when I fill in. Do
Speaker 1: you remember when they came out with the soft version
Speaker 1: of the I think it was the chips and hard.
Speaker 1: It was like a soft but it was a chocolate chip.
Speaker 1: I don't like those, they're too rich. Yeah, I might
Speaker 1: have enjoyed a few packs of those when I first started.
Speaker 1: Next up Balls fan Jimmy from Big Orange Country. Yes,
Speaker 1: he writes, and he says, for both of you, which
Speaker 1: situation had you rather be in? At the free throw line?
Speaker 1: Have we been asked this question? I feel like we
Speaker 1: might have been asked this question? He says, which one
Speaker 1: would you had you rather be in? Would you rather
Speaker 1: be in free throw line down by two with three
Speaker 1: foul shots awarded, no time on the clock, or the
Speaker 1: field goal kicker at the forty eight yard line with
Speaker 1: one second ago, down by two and a picture or
Speaker 1: a batter with a two and a three count down?
Speaker 1: Let me read that again in English? Were they two
Speaker 1: and three count down by one? All for the championship? Damn?
Speaker 1: So the easiest one of those would be the basketball.
Speaker 1: And because foul shooting, I've been told this from people
Speaker 1: that play in the played professionally, that it's really muscle memory,
Speaker 1: that foul shooting is just repetition and and all that.
Speaker 1: But a field goal, there's a lot of elements. Is
Speaker 1: it outdoors? Is their wind that kind of thing? I
Speaker 1: kick a mean football, though, Ben, Oh, do you do you?
Speaker 1: Especially if it's a hard nerf like those new nerves
Speaker 1: they have not the old foam nerve the new nerve
Speaker 1: that's harder. Yeah, I could boot one of those things.
Speaker 1: Last year. I would take the seventh graders up to
Speaker 1: the field and they'd be like, damn, did you used
Speaker 1: to be a punter? It's one of my hidden skills.
Speaker 1: Are you automatica? Is? That they're the one that would
Speaker 1: be the most fun because you kickers, I know they
Speaker 1: pick up kick is, but they they hit a home
Speaker 1: run as a as a batter, right and you know too,
Speaker 1: you know three and two to have that that Joe
Speaker 1: Carter Edgar rent are a moment. And I was actually
Speaker 1: at that Edgar Rentaria game in the you know way back.
Speaker 1: God it's been twenty five years, Holy crap. But in
Speaker 1: Miami Marlins and then Cleveland Indians. Yeah, I said it,
Speaker 1: I said it. I said it, Danny j the Cleveland
Speaker 1: Indians because that's who was in the World Series. Um, anyway,
Speaker 1: that was that was wild and crazy and goofy watching
Speaker 1: the reaction to Miami and the Marlins celebrating and being
Speaker 1: able to go into the locker room and be part
Speaker 1: of that a little bit from an outsider's perspective, And
Speaker 1: I still remember Darren Dalton, of all people whose people
Speaker 1: only remember as a Philly but he was on that
Speaker 1: Marlin's team. They picked him up late in the year
Speaker 1: as a late season edition, and he was cuddling with
Speaker 1: the World Series trophy. He had one arm like wrapped
Speaker 1: around it, and then the other he had a beer,
Speaker 1: and then he had a cigar in his mouth, and
Speaker 1: he was just living his best life. And I think
Speaker 1: back to that because he didn't live a full life.
Speaker 1: He he passed away at at a young age of
Speaker 1: really only a short time relatively speaking, after that World Series.
Speaker 1: But anyway, I don't know why that popped in my head,
Speaker 1: but it just popped in my head. So I'd pick
Speaker 1: hitting the walk off home run or a hit to
Speaker 1: win a baseball game. That's what I would now that
Speaker 1: media game. What year was that your famous hit? In
Speaker 1: that media game, I would date myself. You know, there
Speaker 1: are two famous hits, Danny g There was the hit
Speaker 1: off the wall. Uh that that one was off of
Speaker 1: who was pitching that? I don't even remember who was
Speaker 1: pitching that day? Uh? But I hit it off the wall.
Speaker 1: I then got there were three hits. I got a
Speaker 1: meeting games that the one off the wall, but I
Speaker 1: used a wooden bat if I used the metal bat.
Speaker 1: I used a Wooden Corey Snyder bat. Yeah, And if
Speaker 1: I used the metal bat, it would have been a
Speaker 1: home run. And every time I go to Dodger State
Speaker 1: brow it. I looked at the outfield, I see mother,
Speaker 1: I could have been I could have been me. Let
Speaker 1: hit a damn home running Dodger Stadium. Instead, I hit
Speaker 1: it off the wall. I'm a loser off of that
Speaker 1: was off a guy that led the American League and
Speaker 1: earn run average, left handed pitcher, World Series champion Rick
Speaker 1: honeycut him. Honey also got a hit off another World
Speaker 1: Series champion, a guy that was just a fireballer, Mariano Duncan.
Speaker 1: Um Duncan might remember him as an infielder, but for me,
Speaker 1: he was a pitcher and he was pitching in the media.
Speaker 1: Didn't have a PERM, yes, but at this point he
Speaker 1: didn't though he was he was past the perm that
Speaker 1: the PERM was in the eighties, but this was a
Speaker 1: little later than that, a little later than that. So
Speaker 1: and uh, that was my my baseball experience. Jeremy in Patuca, Indiana, right, So,
Speaker 1: and he says, how, oh, has your coverage of sports
Speaker 1: change from when you started to what it is today. Uh. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So I'll tackle that one quickly, Jeremy. We don't have
Speaker 1: a lot of time here. But the way I will
Speaker 1: answer that, when I first got into sports radio, it
Speaker 1: was very it was it was a lot different than
Speaker 1: it is today. It was more about xs and os.
Speaker 1: It was guys like Mike Francesa getting on the radio,
Speaker 1: reading the Yankee lineup and reading batting averages, batting averages
Speaker 1: and crap like that. Calm down on it Sunday morning.
Speaker 1: And it's really evolved more where we don't necessarily break
Speaker 1: down the games other than playoff games. It's more about
Speaker 1: the stories and the people in sports the drama of
Speaker 1: their lives. And the greatest stories for us in sports
Speaker 1: radio today are a scandal like the Deshaun Watson story
Speaker 1: which has happened, Jon Gruden, Brian Floora is those those
Speaker 1: stories are great palace intrigue when guys don't like each
Speaker 1: other on a team and they make it public. Uh.
Speaker 1: Those things are that white story, yes, from info that
Speaker 1: you normally wouldn't find out from behind the scenes. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like stuff that was rumored. Do you know there was
Speaker 1: a gambler? One of our listeners in Boston said on
Speaker 1: the Sports Hub on Felger and maz They had a
Speaker 1: gambler in Vegas in two thousand who said that Tom
Speaker 1: Brady was looking at real estate in Vegas and was
Speaker 1: going to play for the Raiders. And everyone said that
Speaker 1: guy's just a loser. He's a professional gambler. He has
Speaker 1: no inside information. He was a percent correct correct man.
Speaker 1: Chris and Marracca Iowa says opinion on Costco hot dog
Speaker 1: and pizza. Which one is better both my meal hot
Speaker 1: dog and pizza. I go both. I don't short change
Speaker 1: or one or the other. I think the pizza slightly better. Well, well,
Speaker 1: how can you go wrong pizza? You know, I'll keep
Speaker 1: going wrong with That's the way to some places get
Speaker 1: it wrong. All right, Well we'll leave on that note. Danny,
Speaker 1: the mail bag is done, and don't forget next weekend
Speaker 1: we will have in depth team coverage. We will not
Speaker 1: get this anywhere else. This is gonna be a podcast exclusive.
Speaker 1: We're actually really tired from Friday Nights Spectacular band. We
Speaker 1: just don't know it yet. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're just

Speaker 1: I never said anything about him. I laugh now that
Speaker 1: all these Laker guys, all these historians have to now
Speaker 1: do it, and you've said it before. He's one of
Speaker 1: those players where you love him when he's on your team.
Speaker 1: Everyone else hates him. He's one of those dudes where
Speaker 1: he's got to be on your team for you know.
Speaker 1: He's a he's an instigator, he's a pest. I love
Speaker 1: the way he plays. He reminds me of like a
