We'll tell you why later. 0:00:46.200 --> 0:00:49.559 As we're hanging out and I gotta tell you day. 0:00:49.560 --> 0:00:55.040 I am fascinated by this crime mystery in New York. 0:00:55.560 --> 0:00:59.880 I've been clicking refreshed on this and so far they 0:00:59.880 --> 0:01:05.720 haven't caught this guy. The assassination in midtown Manhattan murder, 0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:10.720 a wild true crime mystery that happened a few days ago. 0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:15.360 And the assassin who just walked up on a on 0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:18.920 I think it was Sixth Avenue in Manhattan and knocked 0:01:18.920 --> 0:01:20.920 off this guy who was running an insurance company. It's 0:01:20.920 --> 0:01:26.360 a wild story. Everything's on video and the the hunt 0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:29.600 to find this guy. I've been watching this and keeping 0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:31.840 an eye on it every day. It's been a wacky, wacky, 0:01:31.880 --> 0:01:35.400 wacky story here. Yeah, and I didn't really you know, 0:01:35.400 --> 0:01:39.440 I know insurance companies are terrible in general. I know 0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:42.520 from my parents getting sick and dying and having to 0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:44.800 deal with them, what assholes they are and how they 0:01:44.800 --> 0:01:47.840 really it really is criminal the insurance companies in general. 0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:51.800 But you shouldn't be killing people there. There should be ways. 0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:57.760 To obviously to take the workplace back. 0:01:58.040 --> 0:02:00.640 I know, I know, but it is amusing. You might 0:02:00.720 --> 0:02:02.680 want to do some self reflection. If you're in the 0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:07.640 insurance business and somebody gets assassinated and the general public 0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:11.560 is cheering on the assassin, that generally that tells you 0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:14.120 you might be doing something wrong with your business. You 0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:17.640 might want to reevaluate your business. When the general rank 0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:19.680 and file like, yeah, we kind of liked that guy 0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:22.960 that did the killing, that that should tell you maybe 0:02:23.000 --> 0:02:25.680 you've you fucked up somehow. You know, I'm just saying, Danny, 0:02:25.720 --> 0:02:29.880 I just yeah. The other thing about this is the 0:02:30.200 --> 0:02:33.520 assassin guy, Danny, the guy that did the killing. They 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:36.639 have video of him, and there's one clip of him 0:02:36.680 --> 0:02:38.919 with his mask off, and it's because he was trying 0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:41.280 to hit on a girl at a like a hostel 0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:42.160 or whatever it's called there. 0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:45.800 Yes, yeah, the photo, the still photo. I thought the 0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:49.120 past couple of days blown up. If we can't find 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:51.839 this guy, then we just don't want to find him. 0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:54.760 Well that but but it's like all the things. The guy, 0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:57.440 you know, he's gonna get caught at some point. They 0:02:57.440 --> 0:02:59.400 probably know who he is already, you know, I don't know. 0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:01.839 It's early on Saturday. Maybe it'll catch him today. Maybe 0:03:01.840 --> 0:03:04.240 they caught him overnight, who knows. I haven't seen it 0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:07.040 if it's happened yet. But either way though, Danny, I 0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:09.960 mean of all the things because of that, because you know, 0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:11.639 he's hitting on some chick at it, you know, it's 0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:13.480 trying to you know, get a date, and he is 0:03:13.880 --> 0:03:15.000 taking his mask off. 0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:18.280 Of course it would be a girl. Yeah, as Jazzy 0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:21.640 Jeff and the Fresh Prince once famously wrapped back in 0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:24.919 the eighties, Girls of the World ain't nothing but trouble. 0:03:25.840 --> 0:03:31.280 It's just just outstanding. That part of it's just absolutely, 0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:34.560 absolutely hilarious. And then the other one that I've been 0:03:34.600 --> 0:03:37.440 following and talked about it obviously on the show, because 0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:40.000 it really fit to show the the hawk tour girl 0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:46.800 who has been accused of a crypto scam and there's 0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:50.280 all kinds of lawsuits and there. You know, people on 0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:52.280 the internet are saying it's a pump and dump and 0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:53.440 the whole deal. 0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:56.320 I mean, it's oh, she stepped in it, all right. Yeah, 0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.800 what a what a wild year it's been for that woman. 0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:03.640 Yeah, she does a blowjob joke on the you know, 0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:07.720 on the street, and she becomes a millionaire. That's pretty crazy, man, I. 0:04:07.640 --> 0:04:10.240 Can'eat with a successful podcast following. 0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:13.600 Who's listening to that? I've never met anyone listening. Do 0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:14.800 you know anyone listen to that? 0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:18.599 I don't know. But I saw that she had really 0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:22.200 good numbers. You know, this was a couple of months ago. 0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:24.440 I read about the numbers for the podcast. I don't know, 0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:26.400 how is it that has changed. I could tell you 0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:29.360 what the numbers will change now, probably. 0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:32.440 But how how is that even possible? I don't under 0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:33.880 who is this real? 0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:38.799 It was because a big podcast company hired her, produced 0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:42.240 the show, put lots of neon lights around her, and 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:45.320 then stuck her with some really good guests, and they 0:04:45.320 --> 0:04:48.320 were able to sell it and market the podcast immediately. 0:04:48.760 --> 0:04:52.080 Oh okay, I'm always a little skeptical of things like 0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:54.719 that because, like you know, I don't know, maybe she's 0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:57.160 a brilliant woman and she's got a lot going for. 0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:00.520 Well, it also helped that she gave away blow jobs 0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:03.719 to a lucky one hundred podcast listener. 0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:06.760 Well, that would encourage the dudes to listen, I would think. 0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:09.400 But anyway, so I saw that I was keeping an 0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:13.760 eye on that and the pump and dump situation. Wow, 0:05:13.760 --> 0:05:15.240 I don't know if that's it or not. I just 0:05:15.279 --> 0:05:18.400 saw that it was valuation. It was at five hundred million, 0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:23.159 the crypto thing on blockchain, and then within moments it 0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:26.599 dropped below like sixty or fifty million. I mean, we 0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:30.240 lost like four hundred plus million dollars in value, which 0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:33.040 is wa Wait anyway. 0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:36.200 How about one last thing? The US Air Force saying 0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:41.120 that that unexplained drone sighting near the UK, that's what 0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:43.960 they're calling it. Other people are calling it a UFO sighting. 0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:47.159 Yeah, it might be there, We're not sure. 0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:48.960 The way it was moving I saw the video. The 0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:50.919 way it was moving around, it does not look like 0:05:50.960 --> 0:05:54.880 a drone. There's like an apol person beside it and 0:05:54.920 --> 0:05:56.960 another one inside, and it has big guys that're looking 0:05:56.960 --> 0:05:57.880 at us. 0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:00.520 Well, that would be a great way to close out 0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:02.800 the year, like, Hey, here's what we got and there's 0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:05.440 a little goblin things they don't even goblin. 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:10.560 So what happens first in our country? Ben Hawkta girl 0:06:10.600 --> 0:06:13.680 becomes president of the United States, or we find out 0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:14.760 that UFOs are real. 0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:20.599 Hey, Trump can only be president for four more years, 0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:23.599 so after that it's wide open. I'm ready for hawk 0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:29.760 toa president Hawkta All right. On this podcast, we got 0:06:29.760 --> 0:06:33.440 who Let the Dogs Out? Thirty one emails, pass over, 0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:35.960 a bunch of other nonsense, but we'll start with this. 0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:38.680 So this the other day, I have Tales of the Handyman, 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.800 and a previous episode of this podcast, we talked about 0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:44.440 the fact that you have a guy that helps us 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:46.039 out at the house, does some work around the house, 0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:49.160 does a really good job. It doesn't always follow the 0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:53.600 proper decor, the etiquette, the rules. 0:06:53.600 --> 0:06:56.520 Shout yeah, you're talking about the white painter racist. 0:06:57.480 --> 0:07:00.719 Yes, the man that before friends giving up the whole 0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:03.600 gallon of paint directly bullseye right in the middle of 0:07:03.680 --> 0:07:07.159 the kitchen and it splattered everywhere, just went all over, 0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:11.440 all over the place. So we had that. And this 0:07:11.440 --> 0:07:14.680 this past week he was finishing up some work that 0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:17.360 he didn't do because he dropped the paint and all that. 0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:21.880 And he works the way this this was I sleep 0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:24.200 during the day. My wife usually works at night too, 0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:26.640 so she's sleeping during the day. She works at night. 0:07:26.680 --> 0:07:29.040 So she said, was sure today, and so the guy, 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:31.480 I'll come over and do the work while we're sleeping, right, 0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:35.600 And so we have Moxie and Luigi. So normally he'll 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:39.000 put Moxie and Luigi out in the back and then 0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:41.080 that way they don't bother him, and they're in the 0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:44.800 back and they're getting some outside time and it's all good. 0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:50.440 So the other day got up late afternoon like normal, 0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:54.120 went down, he was finishing up the work and I 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:57.360 remember coming in my friend, Wow, the dogs are really quiet. 0:07:57.440 --> 0:07:58.400 Normally they're barking. 0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:01.800 I mean maybe box. 0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:06.320 He's been great, and so I, uh, I went outside 0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:09.880 to to see see the dogs and they were they 0:08:09.880 --> 0:08:12.960 were not there. So I came back in and I 0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:15.680 my wife was there and the in the handyman and 0:08:15.720 --> 0:08:18.680 they said, wow, I mean, you know where the dogs 0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:21.360 are they're not, They're not in the backyard. And the 0:08:21.440 --> 0:08:26.880 handyman doesn't say anything. He just sprints out the door 0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:32.960 and gets in his car, and he he had, without 0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:35.719 saying anything, he had implied that he, uh, who let 0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:38.320 the dogs out? He had let the dogs out, and 0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:40.200 the gate on the side of the house had been 0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:43.440 been opened, so that, you know, it was a straight shot. 0:08:43.679 --> 0:08:46.480 So then I, of course I jump in the car, right, 0:08:46.559 --> 0:08:47.959 and I'm like, all right, well, we got to get 0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:49.160 to the bottom of this, and so we got to 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:51.280 find the dogs. I he didn't say, hey, I had 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:51.600 the dog. 0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:55.280 So he rushed to his car to go look for them. 0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:58.400 Yes, without saying that was what he was doing. He 0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:01.120 just walked out and like panicked and got in his 0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:03.480 car and was driving around. Right, So then I got 0:09:03.559 --> 0:09:06.080 my car and I'm driving around assuming that you know, 0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:09.280 he's obviously that why else would you do that? You 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:12.560 felt guilt because you left the gate open, the dogs 0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:15.480 got out, and who knows how many hours they've been out, 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:18.160 And so we're driving around, right, We're driving My wife's 0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:21.320 freaking out. She's you know, calling the pound or whatever 0:09:21.400 --> 0:09:23.839 is maybe somebody found him. So we're driving around we're 0:09:23.920 --> 0:09:28.120 driving around, probably thirty forty minutes. We're driving around no luck, right, No, 0:09:28.200 --> 0:09:30.600 we're asking people, of course my wife is I'm not. 0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:32.960 But we're passing by people on the street, Hey you 0:09:32.960 --> 0:09:35.679 see these dog whatever. So we get back to the 0:09:36.240 --> 0:09:39.160 house and we're like, oh, we're all depressed, like, oh 0:09:39.200 --> 0:09:43.839 crap and uh. And the handyman a short time later 0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:46.840 he pulls back up. He's been driving around for forty 0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:51.679 forty five minutes, and he then had an epiphany. He 0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:57.560 had realized that, unlike normal, he had put the dogs 0:09:57.640 --> 0:09:59.760 in a garage in the in the in the garage. 0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:05.599 What oh, yeah, so I spent forty five if I 0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:08.040 spent about forty minutes driving around trying to find dogs 0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:10.480 that were at the house, just in a different room. 0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:14.400 How old is this guy? Is he having memory loss? 0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:16.920 Well, he's actually much younger than I am. I think 0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:21.320 he might be dabbling in the you know, the pharmaceuticals. 0:10:21.360 --> 0:10:23.200 I don't know what's going on. I don't know, but 0:10:23.559 --> 0:10:28.640 it was like the cop. Yes, yes, smoked every day, 0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:32.120 you smoked good joints in the morning, you smoked good 0:10:32.200 --> 0:10:36.040 joints tonight. He must have that really good stuff. I'd 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:37.920 never say an night. He didn't say anything. He just 0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:39.880 like walked out in front of the house and got 0:10:39.880 --> 0:10:42.520 in his car and started driving around with his head 0:10:42.559 --> 0:10:44.600 out the window like he was looking for dogs. So 0:10:44.640 --> 0:10:46.600 then we did it. You know, he didn't say, hey, 0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:48.840 you should do it. We just did it, and you know, 0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:53.280 sure enough, everything was fine. And then my wife had 0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:55.400 to go to the neighbors. We found the dogs. Where 0:10:55.400 --> 0:11:01.360 were they in the house? So it was it was interesting. 0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:04.760 It was an interesting, interesting day. And I got back. 0:11:04.960 --> 0:11:07.240 I didn't have that many emails. I don't normally open 0:11:07.280 --> 0:11:09.640 most of my email I have right now. If you 0:11:09.679 --> 0:11:11.439 go to my email page, let me see how many 0:11:11.440 --> 0:11:14.680 emails I have. I have seventy one thousand unread emails. 0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:18.400 At one point I had At one point I had 0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:20.800 over one hundred thousand. So I have chopped off thirty 0:11:20.880 --> 0:11:24.760 thousand emails. But I have seven one hundred, three hundred 0:11:24.760 --> 0:11:27.280 and sixty seventy seventy one thousand, three hundred sixty five 0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:30.640 emails I have not read. Almost all of those are 0:11:30.679 --> 0:11:33.760 from pr people back when I ran my website. I 0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:38.360 also get a lot of random who sends me. The 0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:41.720 teams in LA send me a lot of stuff I get, 0:11:41.760 --> 0:11:45.200 like NASCAR emails and stuff I don't even bother them. 0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:47.920 Oh's got you don't cover NASCAR anymore. But when I 0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:50.680 had the website and all that, but thirty one emails, 0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:53.720 that's a lot of emails, new emails in one day. 0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:55.559 That's a that's a fair amount of emails. 0:11:55.800 --> 0:11:58.120 Yeah, and this is an email thread. I'm going to 0:11:58.200 --> 0:12:02.199 explain to you an email from the PR director and 0:12:02.280 --> 0:12:06.760 the personal manager. They're emailing me together answering an email 0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:09.400 from a month ago, and then a month before that, 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:12.000 I had sent an email. A month before that, I 0:12:12.000 --> 0:12:15.280 had sent several emails. This was all related to Mike 0:12:15.360 --> 0:12:19.440 Tyson's fight versus Jake Paul. As you know, on the 0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:22.200 CNR show here and there, it's not every week, but 0:12:22.360 --> 0:12:25.040 it's a staple on the show. We do Iron Mike 0:12:25.240 --> 0:12:29.800 Trivia because Covino does a really good Mike Tyson impersonation. Yeah. 0:12:29.960 --> 0:12:32.520 So it's a game. It's a trivia boxing trivia game 0:12:32.559 --> 0:12:35.840 that we do where we have the broke Mike Tyson 0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:39.040 in the studio with us reading the trivia questions about 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:41.440 himself and the world of boxing. We have a listener 0:12:41.480 --> 0:12:43.680 on the line. They can win a prize. 0:12:44.120 --> 0:12:46.600 This is unfathomable, This is ridiculous. 0:12:47.360 --> 0:12:49.240 It's been going on for a couple of years now 0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:51.520 on the show, a lot of fun. And so when 0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:53.719 Mike Tyson and Jake Paul were trying to get the 0:12:53.800 --> 0:12:57.240 hype train going for their fight, I reached out to 0:12:57.360 --> 0:13:00.640 Tyson's team and I said, hey, I know that back 0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:04.400 in the serious XM radio days, Mike Tyson sat down 0:13:04.440 --> 0:13:06.959 with the guys a couple of different times. How about 0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:09.760 him coming on the show right now, He's a big 0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:12.480 part of our show. The guys are talking about the 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:16.400 fight a lot. You know, let's book it. So his manager, 0:13:16.480 --> 0:13:20.000 Ben emailed me back and said, yep, familiar with the guys, 0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:23.080 I know him, well, love the show. Let's make it happen. 0:13:23.320 --> 0:13:27.640 Boom goes to Dynamite. Yeah, got this booking, and you know, 0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:29.800 it took a few emails, but I got it done. 0:13:30.480 --> 0:13:32.679 And then, as you know in the world of this Ben, 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:35.160 what happens sometimes. 0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:41.160 Well you know, if people get busy, Danny and yeah, yeah, 0:13:41.400 --> 0:13:43.120 age their mind and. 0:13:43.360 --> 0:13:46.560 Yeah yeah, and you get Brian Billick. 0:13:47.160 --> 0:13:49.559 Brian Billich, Brian Billick. 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:50.920 He's a verb now in our world. 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:54.560 The run around, the run around, yeah. 0:13:54.000 --> 0:13:56.720 I kept sending them emails, and this is the key 0:13:56.880 --> 0:14:00.720 to producing and being a good producer. Don't ever get frustrated. 0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:04.520 Always smile and send happy, you know, emails and text 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:07.840 messages to these people, hoping it's going to come back around. 0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:10.320 And in this case, it did because that email on 0:14:10.400 --> 0:14:13.280 Monday morning said, you know what, Danny, We're going to 0:14:13.320 --> 0:14:17.640 make that interview Happenoo. Now it's post fight, but still 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:20.600 a lot of people have questions about what happened in 0:14:20.640 --> 0:14:24.840 that fight? Was it rigged? Why did it stink the 0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:27.880 way it did? As Covino, I'm looking at Covino's list 0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:30.520 of questions that he wrote down that a couple of 0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:33.960 these he wants to ask Mike. He wrote, not many 0:14:34.040 --> 0:14:36.840 men could break the internet with their butt cheeks, but 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:38.560 you did. How did that feel? 0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:41.920 Yeah? Oh yeah, yeah, everyone was talking about they weren't 0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:43.800 even talking about there was talking about bad the fight was, 0:14:43.840 --> 0:14:45.920 but that was that got more attention in the fight itself. 0:14:46.200 --> 0:14:50.280 Yeah. Yeah. Covino's next sample question here for the naysayers, 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:52.560 how come you weren't able to pull the trigger on 0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:56.360 some of those right hooks? So you know, hey, the 0:14:56.400 --> 0:14:59.360 guys were excited when they heard that Tyson was going 0:14:59.440 --> 0:15:02.640 to come on the show. I am now running around 0:15:02.960 --> 0:15:06.440 talking to not only his PR lady in New York, 0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:09.640 but his personal PR guy who walks around with him, 0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:12.720 and his personal manager. So I'm dealing with three different 0:15:12.760 --> 0:15:16.200 people on his team. Back and forth, been back and forth, 0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:19.560 and she said, you got to send me those sample questions. 0:15:20.120 --> 0:15:23.120 You had to send the the What's up with that? 0:15:23.560 --> 0:15:24.240 I know, right? 0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:28.320 So after they say have to approve the questions, is 0:15:28.320 --> 0:15:28.960 that what they're. 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:31.520 Going to do. She didn't word it like that, but 0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:34.120 she wanted an idea of some of the questions that 0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:35.240 the guys would use. 0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:36.200 Wow. 0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:42.160 Okay, now I counted the thread thirty one emails. Now, 0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:44.400 don't get me wrong, I appreciate the fact they're going 0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:47.800 to have the champ Iron Mike Tyson come on the 0:15:47.920 --> 0:15:51.240 radio show. Yeah, but they sent me a list of 0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:55.040 questions and you'll like this, she wrote, Danny, appreciate you 0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:58.760 sending these sample questions through. I passed these by Mike's 0:15:58.800 --> 0:16:02.400 personal publicist, and we'd really appreciate it if we could 0:16:02.480 --> 0:16:05.600 focus on the below for the interview, as Mike wouldn't 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:08.640 be so keen to discuss some of the previous topics. 0:16:09.000 --> 0:16:09.920 Oh my god. 0:16:10.560 --> 0:16:13.680 And I haven't discussed this with CNR yet. I wanted 0:16:13.720 --> 0:16:16.200 them to just kind of get into the weekend, breathe 0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:18.600 a little bit, and then Monday morning, I'm gonna have 0:16:18.640 --> 0:16:21.640 to address this, which is gonna suck. But I think 0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:23.840 what they should do, and maybe this is how you 0:16:23.840 --> 0:16:26.720 would handle it as well. Maybe ask one of their 0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:29.280 questions and then ask one of your questions and kind 0:16:29.320 --> 0:16:29.880 of rotate. 0:16:30.520 --> 0:16:32.440 Yeah, so Dan, listen, I mean, I'm at the point 0:16:32.480 --> 0:16:34.520 now in my career. I've had to deal with this 0:16:34.600 --> 0:16:39.200 in the past. I I'm out. If you have to approve, 0:16:39.320 --> 0:16:41.960 you have a team of PR people to approve questions. 0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:45.360 It's not worth my time. That's just how I look 0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:48.880 at it, because I've done those interviews in the past, 0:16:48.960 --> 0:16:53.600 and it just seems, is it Kamala Harris the you know, 0:16:53.680 --> 0:16:57.280 is it like the vice president before? Yeah, the question, 0:16:57.280 --> 0:16:59.040 I mean, it just seems I don't know. I mean, 0:16:59.160 --> 0:17:01.840 and you do it, and Mike Tyson's a big name 0:17:01.880 --> 0:17:03.640 and it would be a great get and all that stuff. 0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:07.600 But my position, I guess I'm too jaded at this 0:17:07.680 --> 0:17:09.920 point now, and I I just don't want to deal 0:17:09.960 --> 0:17:12.520 with the bull crap. And so it's like, if you're 0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:15.399 that afraid to talk, like, why are you even doing 0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:18.600 an interview if you can't just answer anything? And Mike 0:17:18.640 --> 0:17:21.520 Tyson's done enough interviews, and any of these celebrities that 0:17:21.560 --> 0:17:24.320 do these that have that many PR people. My position 0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:26.439 has always been, it's really not that hard to not 0:17:26.600 --> 0:17:30.720 answer a question. Like, if you're a skilled person at communication, 0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:34.200 it's very simple to change the questions, say, don't even 0:17:34.240 --> 0:17:36.159 ask a question, you know what I mean, Dan, I mean, 0:17:36.160 --> 0:17:37.560 we do it all the time. If somebody asks you 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:40.800 a question you don't like, you deflect and you you 0:17:40.880 --> 0:17:44.560 answer something totally different, or you ask yourself a question. 0:17:45.200 --> 0:17:47.800 So why would anyone that's just my thing? I mean, 0:17:47.800 --> 0:17:49.480 I like what I know, PR people that get paid 0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:50.960 a lot of money. I'm sure Tyson's got you know, 0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:52.679 he's got tons of money from the weed business and 0:17:52.680 --> 0:17:55.840 all that. But it's like, what are you doing, Like 0:17:56.040 --> 0:17:58.439 you should be Mike Tyson's older than we are. You 0:17:58.440 --> 0:18:01.720 should be able to deflect. And it's like in boxing, 0:18:01.760 --> 0:18:03.600 you've got a bob and weave, right, you've got a 0:18:03.600 --> 0:18:05.960 bob and weave and good defense. 0:18:05.600 --> 0:18:09.000 And yeah, and to be honest, Covino's questions were not 0:18:09.440 --> 0:18:11.399 out of line. I read you just a couple of him. 0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:14.480 He's got a couple more asking about that Saudi Arabia 0:18:14.720 --> 0:18:18.280 money rumor for eight hundred million dollars for rematch and 0:18:18.320 --> 0:18:20.560 stuff like that. I think what the guys are going 0:18:20.600 --> 0:18:22.480 to tell me on Monday morning is screw it. We're 0:18:22.480 --> 0:18:23.920 going to do it the way we want to do it. 0:18:24.160 --> 0:18:26.840 And yeah, we'll promote Tyson two point zero, we'll promote 0:18:26.920 --> 0:18:30.160 his website for him whatever. You know, that's fun. That's 0:18:30.240 --> 0:18:33.480 normal to promote somebody's you know, business while they're on 0:18:33.520 --> 0:18:37.120 the radio. Yeah, but they're going to ask the questions 0:18:37.160 --> 0:18:39.640 they want to ask. And if she tries to pull 0:18:39.680 --> 0:18:42.520 the plug on the interview while it's going on, I 0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:44.480 don't know, maybe it'll make it even better. Because if 0:18:44.520 --> 0:18:47.919 Mike Tyson walks out on CNR, then maybe that's an 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:48.960 even better interview. 0:18:49.480 --> 0:18:52.240 Oh, it would be good publicity. Sure, if you know, 0:18:52.600 --> 0:18:55.760 and then if see that happened, it was my show 0:18:55.920 --> 0:18:59.080 and that happened, I would then proceed to read all 0:18:59.119 --> 0:19:01.000 the questions that Mike would not answer. 0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:06.520 You know, that's that's my bat And Bo'm glad you 0:19:06.600 --> 0:19:08.880 said that Ben, because you just gave me a really 0:19:08.920 --> 0:19:11.800 good backup plan, I explained to Iron Mike Trivia, we 0:19:11.840 --> 0:19:14.760 do I could have Rich read the remaining questions and 0:19:14.840 --> 0:19:17.320 have Covino answer them as Mike Tyson. 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:20.960 Yeah, no, no, that's the way I would I would 0:19:21.000 --> 0:19:23.760 approach it. But again, I mean, we've been around a while, Danny, 0:19:23.760 --> 0:19:26.320 and I'm at the point now and I've dealt with that. Unfortunately, 0:19:26.359 --> 0:19:28.240 at night, we don't do interviews and stuff, and we 0:19:28.320 --> 0:19:30.439 used to do more on this podcast, but now I 0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:32.600 just kind of put people on that I like and 0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:34.960 people that I know a little bit generally, and every 0:19:34.960 --> 0:19:37.320 almost all have people that I don't know on the podcast. 0:19:37.359 --> 0:19:39.840 But that's that's just like, hey, if you if you're 0:19:39.920 --> 0:19:43.800 that guarded, you know you're not You're not hiding the 0:19:43.880 --> 0:19:46.639 nuclear secrets here, Mike Tyson, Dude, I mean, you know 0:19:46.880 --> 0:19:47.800 what are we doing here? 0:19:47.880 --> 0:19:50.720 I don't you know. He'll I think he'll be into it, Ben, 0:19:50.720 --> 0:19:52.880 because he's hung out with them on the radio before 0:19:53.240 --> 0:19:55.080 and he really liked them, and they have really good 0:19:55.160 --> 0:19:57.240 drops from him that they've always played on the air, 0:19:57.440 --> 0:19:59.680 so they have a little bit of a relationship with him. 0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:03.600 It's the handlers who seem too overbearing? 0:20:04.560 --> 0:20:07.359 Yeah, are they going to be the monitoring it? And 0:20:07.400 --> 0:20:10.080 all of a sudden you ask the wrong question and 0:20:10.119 --> 0:20:13.000 the zoom cuts out, all of a sudden, It's this 0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:17.160 is shame for most. Today is just you know, random 0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:20.840 Saturday in December. As we said, the seventh day of 0:20:20.880 --> 0:20:23.240 the month. You already know that. But why is this 0:20:23.359 --> 0:20:26.360 night different from all other nights? Well, it's kind of passover, 0:20:26.520 --> 0:20:29.600 like that's on all other nights. I normally don't invite 0:20:30.160 --> 0:20:33.080 my friends and co workers into the Malor Mansion, but 0:20:33.160 --> 0:20:36.840
