Speaker 1: Kabbooms.

2
00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 2: If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

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

5
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the

6
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,480
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse.

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

8
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:22,320

00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 3: Oh. I love blueberry waffles.

16
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: You're all about the blueberry waffle. Yeah. I don't eat

17
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 1: breakfast food very often, but I don't reject waffles. I'm

18
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: a big fan of the waffle. Which, by the way,

19
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: fun fact, fun fact. We got to start the Saturday

20
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 1: Pie with a fun fact. And the word waffle first

21
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 1: appeared in the English language in the seventeen hundreds. That

22
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 1: word goes back to seventeen twenty five, but it wasn't

23
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: until the eighteen sixties. Almost eighteen seventy eighteen sixty ninety

24
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 1: exact year, someone named Cornelius Swarthout received the first waffle

25
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 1: iron patent in Troy, New York. So you can thank

26
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: Cornelius for bringing the waffle to America. So congratulations to Cornelius.

27
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 3: But yeah, it's national an American hero.

28
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: He is real patriot, real patriot businessman. Over three quarters

29
00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: of Americans love golden brown waffles, seventi percent. The region

30
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: you want to take a guest, which region of the

31
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: US eats the most waffles.

32
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 3: The most waffles, I'm gonna say at Atlanta.

33
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 1: You are well, you're correct. The South. Yeah, eighty one

34
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 1: percent of Southerners say they love their waffles, and it's

35
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 1: it's everyone kind of likes it. The least popular place

36
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: for the waffles, like the Northeast. Those codres in the

37
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: Northeast not big fans. But anyway, in this podcast, it

38
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 1: is said, I hope you heard the Friday podcast. I

39
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 1: was excited to bring Looney Tunes back. The big announcement

40
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 1: Benny Penny is back season two. We're going national this

41
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: year on Peacock. We're still on regional cable television. On NBC,

42
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: but they're putting us on Peacock, so I'm very excited

43
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: about that. It's gonna be a fun season. You can

44
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 1: go back and hear that from yesterday's podcast with Looney

45
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,959
Speaker 1: Tunes as we broke it all down and just played

46
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 1: grab ass, I told the story Danny of Tom Looney

47
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: at the Big Power dinner that we had in Boston,

48
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 1: and Looney took about three hours to finish his broccoli.

49
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: Everyone was done eating, we were all waiting for Looney

50
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 1: to finish, and it was he was eating like like

51
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: an old geezer, you old man. It was really really uncomfortable.

52
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 1: It was really it took forever, you know, and you

53
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 1: want to be polite, but I also wanted to like

54
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: poke Looney in the arm and say, what are you doing?

55
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: You know, we got places to go. We don't want

56
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: to sit here and watch you eat broccoli. And it

57
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: reminded me of those old meetings we had at Fox

58
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 1: where we'd all agree not to ask any questions, get

59
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,839
Speaker 1: the meeting over with, and then Looney would inevitably ask

60
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: like fifteen questions at the end.

61
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, and you know, how to not be that

62
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 4: guy sitting at the table for that many hours with broccoli.

63
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: How's that?

64
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 3: Don't order frickin' broccoli. That's that's what I said.

65
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: I told, I said, listen, they got so many great options.

66
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 1: We went to an expensive restaurant. We all got steak

67
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: because I'm not paying for it. Why I don't even

68
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: really like steak that much, but I'm not paying for it.

69
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 3: Why not?

70
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: And Louie gets the side up broccoli. No, give me

71
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: this whole raps of well World on TV.

72
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 4: You know, if you got to have some greens, get

73
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 4: the fancy asparagus right next to the steak and the

74
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 4: mashed potatoes.

75
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, or just I guess it's really the cooking process, right,

76
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,720
Speaker 1: If you get roasted and maybe you put some sauce

77
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 1: or something on it, you can eat it. It's possible

78
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: to enjoy it. But that's not my domain. So on

79
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: this podcast, we've got unleashed the power, offer up adulting,

80
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: the trident and whatever else pops up here. So we'll

81
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: begin with this. I have not one, but two or

82
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: two dogs. I got Moxie, who is an English bulldog,

83
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: and Luigi, who is a combo dish of a French

84
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 1: bulldog and a pug. Otherwise no as a frog. And

85
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: so we've had these dugs for about a year. We

86
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 1: lost our beloved Bella a year ago, and then we

87
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,280
Speaker 1: waited a little while, not long, not long, picked up.

88
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 3: Not too long before you replaced her.

89
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's usually how it works. Maxie and we

90
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: went through the proper. We sat shiva. We were mourning

91
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 1: for a little bit, then we went and moved on.

92
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 1: But Maxi and Luigi, who I love them. However, I'm

93
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: gonna say the word butt, which means I don't really

94
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:29,919
Speaker 1: love them, because when you say the word butt, everything

95
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: before the word butts a lie. So Maxie and Luigi

96
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: have an addiction to urinating as soon as they come

97
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 1: out of the Malar mansion, a little concrete in the back,

98
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:47,799
Speaker 1: and they immediately have to relieve their bladder. And over

99
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 1: time it has become a bit of an issue because

100
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 1: if you every single day, twice a day, if you

101
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: go out and you take care of your business right

102
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 1: there there, eventually becomes a bit of an odor becomes

103
00:05:58,960 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: an issue.

104
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 3: So I was.

105
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 1: Able, with the help of the wife there, to solve

106
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: the problem here, Danny, we went on the interweb and

107
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: bought a power washer, a starter powerwasher.

108
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 3: Oh that's an old guide purchase.

109
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 1: I feel. Let me tell you something. I love it.

110
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 1: I am so happy. I am embracing this because middle

111
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: age is great, Danny. Because I got a griddle which

112
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: I love. That was a couple of years ago, a

113
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: Blackstone griddle, which is just wonderful. And now I've got

114
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 1: the next level powerwasher. It is amazing, and it really

115
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: it's a starter. It's not like a high end one.

116
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 1: It's not I can't go out and get commercial jobs

117
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: with it. It's not that much of a power washer.

118
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,679
Speaker 1: But it's wonderful what I need. It wasn't all that much.

119
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: Very cool. I've been unable to unleash the power. I

120
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: was able to clean the concrete where the dogs have

121
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: been pissing up a storm. I even got carried away.

122
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: I washed the front of the Malor mansion. I was

123
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 1: able to clean the blue malormobile Harvey liked. And this thing, Danny,

124
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: is like a professional car wash. They've got an attachment

125
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: that you can put the soap on it and it

126
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 1: sprays out like it's at the car wash. It's just

127
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: a wonderful device, and I feel very productive. I feel

128
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: very masculine with the powerwasher, split splash.

129
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 3: Your neighbors are like, get off our driveway.

130
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: Well, I did get a little carried away this past

131
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: weekend because I was so excited to have this thing

132
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: that I was trying to use it on all different

133
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 1: you know, I want to see what it could clean.

134
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: And there's different attachments to it depending on how powerful

135
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: you want it to be. And you got to be

136
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: careful because you don't want to hurt yourself. You know,

137
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: it's so powerful that it could damage your skin if

138
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: you put it right in your hand, right in front

139
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: of it. So I was just experimenting. It was like

140
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: in Frankenstein's lab. I was just experimenting and messing around

141
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: and all that. And I got carried away. And it

142
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 1: was kind of hot this past weekend here in the

143
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: south Land of southern California. And I'm a bit of

144
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: a vampire from doing the Overnight show. So I got

145
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: a bit of a sunburn, a bit of a sunburn

146
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: on my legs and my arms. And because I was

147
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 1: out there and I didn't put any suntand lotion on,

148
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 1: I wasn't like going to the beach or anything like that.

149
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 1: And I lost track of time, and then I was like, oh.

150
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 3: Man, is it a truckers tan?

151
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a bad. It's not bad. You know,

152
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 1: no one sees me him at night and no one

153
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: no even noticed. But it was a little painful. The

154
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,680
Speaker 1: worst thing about the sunburn now is when you go

155
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: into the shower, the hot water just kill it. Stings

156
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 1: when you got a sunburn. Foh, drizzle, Oh it's bad.

157
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 1: What I should have done, Danny's I should have gone

158
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: on offer up and bought some suntan lotion or something.

159
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: I didn't do that. I did not go on there.

160
00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 4: Good luck buying something as inexpensive as that on offer up,

161
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 4: because you know, usually if it's an item that's under

162
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 4: twenty dollars, people don't even want to make the trip

163
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 4: to go pick up the item. So you know, offer

164
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 4: up is better for bigger or more expensive things that

165
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 4: you're trying to get rid of.

166
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: Outdoor furniture. Well, you had the famous stor with your

167
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: son CoA, right, you went to buy a stroller. Was

168
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: it was that? What?

169
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,199
Speaker 3: Yeah? Oh? That No, it was the skip pop remember.

170
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, I remember, I forget exactly, but I

171
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:33,959
Speaker 1: remember you were buying something for your side.

172
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, that bouncer and the lady had Oh she had

173
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 4: spilled mango all over it. Remember it's like clean your

174
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 4: shit before you try to sell it. And to prove

175
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 4: my point on that there was a cat for sale.

176
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 4: God help us all. Our teenage daughter wants a cat

177
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 4: for herself. We have one in the house with a doggie.

178
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 4: You were talking about your two dogs. Well, two days

179
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 4: ago I took her when I got home in the

180
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 4: evening from CNR, I took her to where a cat

181
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 4: was being sold. And supposedly it's like this twenty five

182
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 4: hundred dollars British short hair. We walk inside this house

183
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 4: to visit the cat ben and it reaked of cat

184
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 4: piss inside their living room.

185
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: Oh wonderful. That makes you really want to beat cat

186
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: right there.

187
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 4: Oh bur all over their furniture, and that that scent

188
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 4: of cat piss has got to be one of the

189
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 4: top ten worst smells in the world. Once they pee

190
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 4: like that, if you don't get them spade or newter,

191
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 4: and then they start like the male starts spraying. Man,

192
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 4: you cannot get rid of that odor. Whatever they pee on,

193
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 4: you'll have to burn it. So that's one. That's one. Now,

194
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 4: she didn't find that on offer up that would have

195
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 4: been too good. Everything on offer Up's even worse than

196
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 4: that right now, So I have a few items on there,

197
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 4: and I keep getting these drive buys. It's so annoying

198
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 4: when you sell something on the offer up app. You

199
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 4: go and you put old you market sold, and it

200
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 4: has you give Like this podcast, it has you give

201
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 4: five stars to the buyer if they're worthy, and the

202
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 4: seller vice versa, and it has you, you know, rate

203
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 4: the doing business with them that way.

204
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:14,719
Speaker 3: Everybody has kind of like.

205
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,439
Speaker 4: A little track record on their profile, so you know

206
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 4: who you're dealing with. Well, I have right now one

207
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 4: of my e bikes for sale. Over the years, I

208
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 4: paid monthly on getting two of these suckers. One was

209
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 4: a city bike that I bought in Burbank, and then

210
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 4: when I moved outside of La in the San Fernando

211
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 4: Valley here where we're at, there's all these hills and

212
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 4: the city bike just won't work on these hills, so

213
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 4: I needed the fat tire.

214
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 3: Have you seen those e bikes with the fat tires?

215
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, those are the way to go there.

216
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's one of the big reasons for me having

217
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 4: problems selling the other e bike. I have the city

218
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,320
Speaker 4: e bike for sale and nobody wants it. Ben it

219
00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 4: is a beautiful thousand dollars bike. I'm trying to sell

220
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,679
Speaker 4: it for not even half that price.

221
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,559
Speaker 1: It's not fat enough. They want they want to exactly.

222
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 4: I've had two customers come test right it and they're like, Wow,

223
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 4: what a beautiful bike. But you know what, it just

224
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 4: doesn't happen the pickup I was looking for in the

225
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:18,479
Speaker 4: in the tires. They don't want bikes, they want mopeds,

226
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 4: they want motorcycles.

227
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 1: Well listen, you know, you know where I live in

228
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 1: the north Woods, and every fricking kid around here it

229
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 1: is like a moped. It's like a motorcycle. It's insane.

230
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 1: I I mean I back in I on want to

231
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 1: be old guy back in my day, but I was like,

232
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 1: we drove bikes around. We thought we were going fast

233
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 1: going down a hill. But these guys are going like

234
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: forty five miles an hour on a bike.

235
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 4: In the city bike. It's not some weeny thing. It's

236
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 4: not some flimsy ten speed. It's called a stealth Hurricane.

237
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 4: It's a thick, well made bike, but it's got the

238
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 4: city tires on it. Eyeamn, the max speed with the

239
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 4: pedal assist is like twenty five, twenty six miles per hour.

240
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 4: These kids and youngsters who are buying bikes, they want

241
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 4: bikes that go forty five miles per hour, which aren't

242
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 4: even street legal. By the way, you need a special

243
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 4: license for that. But do you think any of these

244
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 4: people are getting the license.

245
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go no for a thousand Hell no.

246
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 4: If the cops wanted to be dicks, they could pull

247
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 4: all these fat tire kids over and give them tickets.

248
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 4: Now I've struck out twice with people test writing it.

249
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 4: I get one guy just a week ago who said,

250
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 4: he writes, this is where the Lebron James violin music

251
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 4: should come in. He writes me a sad note about

252
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 4: how his car was in a minor accident and it's

253
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 4: on the shelf right now. He can't even drive to

254
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 4: Sherman Oaks. He needs me to drive the bike to

255
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,239
Speaker 4: him in Santa Monica.

256
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:57,199
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no bueno. He says.

257
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 4: He is taking ubers and getting rides from coworkers to

258
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 4: get to his job right now. But to hang on

259
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,439
Speaker 4: and I hear the violin again. He feels bad though,

260
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 4: because if I come all the way to Santa Monica.

261
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 4: What if it's not a good match in a red

262
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 4: flag right now and offer up. When anybody says I

263
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 4: want to see if it's a good match or not,

264
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 4: that means they're not going to buy it.

265
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, so what we don't even bother, right and move on.

266
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 1: That's it.

267
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 3: I'm good, Yeah, I'm I'm to the point right now.

268
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 4: And no, I did not drive the bike to Santa

269
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 4: Monica yesterday. He wanted me to take it there Friday afternoon.

270
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 3: I didn't do it. He's like, after your shift, can

271
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 3: you come.

272
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 4: I'm yeah, I'm going to sit in traffic for two

273
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 4: hours to bring a bike to you that you probably

274
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 4: will test drive and then say, yeah, the tires aren't

275
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 4: fat enough.

276
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, just tell him to send you like forty bucks

277
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 1: per gas or something you'll drive out there.

278
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, if this guy can't even fix his car,

279
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 3: chances yeah. Yeah.

280
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 4: And that's the other thing you get all these lowballers

281
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 4: on there. He already was trying to cut the price

282
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 4: down by forty bucks. I'm like, so you're offering me

283
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 4: forty less than what I'm listening it for and you

284
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 4: want me to drive all the way to you. I

285
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 4: don't know, I'm close to retiring my offer up career.

286
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: That sucks.

287
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 3: I might just take weekend trips to the city to

288
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 3: have an excuse to ride the city bike.

289
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: There you go, Well maybe when Co is old. By

290
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: the time Co is old enough to ride that thing,

291
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 1: that thing will be uh out extinct.

292
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 3: Right.

293
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, by the time he gets to a bike, they'll

294
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,359
Speaker 4: probably be flying jetson's bikes.

295
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, we did talk about that it is legal

296
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: not have flying flying cars, so flying bikes that's that's

297
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: gonna happen. So I mentioned the unleashed the power I

298
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 1: get this power washer up and futzing around with that.

299
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: Also we asked the question is there a gardener in house?

300
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 1: We noticed in the back that there's a lot of

301
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: flooding going on behind the mall mach and while we

302
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: were doing some adulting this past weekend in addition to

303
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 1: the powerwasher, and it was pointed out we talked about

304
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: this in the past on this podcast that Moxie, our bulldog,

305
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 1: loves water and loves attacking any source of water, which

306
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 1: includes sprinklers, and so we noticed Moxie's been eating several

307
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 1: sprinklers and so there has been at one point water

308
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: going in the air everywhere a massive geyser style courtesy

309
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: of our dog Moxie. So we addressed the fountain in

310
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: the yard, and we made several trips to Home Depot,

311
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: multiple multiple stops fixing sprinklers. Now this is something that

312
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: thanks to YouTube is possible. I believe prior to YouTube

313
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: it was impossible, Danny, but we've been able to fix

314
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: the sprinklers because of these YouTube videos. And if you

315
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: get someone who's like a professional to do it, like

316
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: a guard, they charge you like eighty ninety bucks or

317
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 1: something like that. But you can buy the sprinkler for

318
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 1: like ten fifteen bucks and do it yourself and save

319
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 1: seventy or eighty bucks, depending on how much they try

320
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: to price gouge you. And it's real easy, Like it's

321
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,479
Speaker 1: real simple. You just seed a couple of things from

322
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 1: from Home Depot or Low's or whatever your local store is.

323
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: And so we were doing that and very productive, you know,

324
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,719
Speaker 1: the powerwasher, the fixing the sprinklers and all that. So

325
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 1: that was good. And then as far as the radio

326
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: show this past week, it was wonderful to have our

327
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 1: friend Robbie the Marger fan came by. You might have

328
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 1: seen some photos.

329
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,360
Speaker 3: Rob I was just gonna say I saw the pictures.

330
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,159
Speaker 1: Yeah. Robbie's a great guy. He lives in Oregon, actually

331
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 1: not in Seattle, but he's in the Pacific Northwest. He

332
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,120
Speaker 1: loves his Seattle Mariners. He has been a loyal minion

333
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 1: since you were on the show, Danny, back in the day.

334
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 1: Robbie's been with the show a long time. And I

335
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: met him him back in twenty nineteen before the pandemic,

336
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: and we were at the Seattle Meet and greed. It

337
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: was was great, and then Robbie was there hanging out

338
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: with us. We had a fine time and he I

339
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,200
Speaker 1: told him, I said, listen, you ever get to La

340
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 1: and let me know, I'll give you the tour of

341
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. And it only took five years, but

342
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,360
Speaker 1: he showed up this week and he was very excited

343
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 1: the VIP tour of the mothership, Fox Sports Radio's headquarters

344
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 1: there and it was great. Dan. I was walking around,

345
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 1: I was like, I felt like I was a tour

346
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,439
Speaker 1: guide at Universal Studios, like I said, I might. Walking through.

347
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 1: I'm all right, well over here is where the cockroaches are, right,

348
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 1: that's right there, there's several cockroaches died right there, and

349
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: then I'm like, this is where the ghost of Casey

350
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: Casem is right over here. This is where he used

351
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,439
Speaker 1: to do his Top forty Countdown show. I'm sick and

352
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,360
Speaker 1: tired of doing it. Coming in on an upbeat song

353
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: and I got to do a death dedication for a

354
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: goddamn dog. I'm singing, you know, do that? Holy so

355
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: Casey case his little booth is there, and pointed out

356
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 1: to to Robbie where wrong button Bob turned the network

357
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,880
Speaker 1: off the air. The rack room.

358
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 4: That's the fun fact, fun fact. Can I get the

359
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 4: Ohio Al sounder?

360
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, go ahead, Ohio, I'll give it to me, Ohio Al.

361
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 4: And you got to add this to your tour ben

362
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,639
Speaker 4: That rack room used to be where the kitchen was

363
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 4: when it was a Denny's.

364
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 1: Dummy, I did not know that.

365
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was the kitchen area.

366
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I try not to go in there. There's

367
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: cameras in now. I don't know where they go, but

368
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,919
Speaker 1: there's cameras in there. But I don't want to hit

369
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 1: the wrong button. If wrong button Bob hit it, I

370
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 1: don't want to be wrong button Benny. I don't want that,

371
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 1: so I don't I don't go in there. I showed

372
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 1: uh where I show Robbie the old studio, pointed out

373
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 1: the old studio. He could not believe how far away

374
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: Eddie and the Update people were from the main studio.

375
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:57,400
Speaker 3: Yeah.

376
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 1: I showed him the fountain across the street where Eddie

377
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,719
Speaker 1: stood there like a jack wagon in the fountain. We

378
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 1: pointed out the Whole Foods about a block away where

379
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: all the celebrities shop, right Danny Big Oh, Yeah.

380
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 4: Did he see the famous l Toyo Loco where I

381
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 4: ate chicken with mister t Oh?

382
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 1: Yes, I don't know. I mean we drove by it,

383
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: so he might have seen it. I pointed out where

384
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: a lot of the homeless there like to do their drugs,

385
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,440
Speaker 1: and that little fire escape on the side of the building.

386
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 1: When you leave the parking garage.

387
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 3: There a bunch of hookers and cocaine.

388
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 1: I pointed out that many a night I have seen

389
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 1: people in there shooting things into their veins as I've

390
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 1: been driving around. So it was the VIP to. It

391
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 1: was great. Robbie seemed to really enjoy it. It was fun.

392
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 1: We put him on the air for a little bit

393
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: and it was great. I also took a bunch of

394
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: crap this week, Danny, because I was asked by the

395
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:53,119
Speaker 1: company to sit in with Rob Parker. I need a

396
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: cole shower.

397
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 3: Oh yeah.

398
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 4: You came on right after the Covino and Rich show,

399
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,439
Speaker 4: so I heard at least the first half hour of

400
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 4: you blabbing with Rob.

401
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, hanging it out with Rob. And they asked me

402
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: to sit in. And they usually asked me maybe three

403
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: or four times a year, not regularly, rare and appropriate

404
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 1: and inevitably what happens when I am not on the

405
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 1: normal post overnight, they gave me the night off and

406
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 1: I sat in with Rob and it's it was great.

407
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,120
Speaker 3: I mean, Rob was really kissing your ass on the air.

408
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: I don't I don't think enough. But Rob was very nice.

409
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 1: It was it was fun, and man, is it easier.

410
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 1: I forgot how easy it is to do a three

411
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 1: hour show compared to a four hour show. It's like,

412
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 1: holy crap, this is such an easier world that fourth hour.

413
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 1: Not that four hours is hard, mind you, but when

414
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,159
Speaker 1: you go from using four hours of airtime to three hours,

415
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 1: it's like, oh my god, it's a whole different world. Perfect.

416
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 1: So that was that was kind of cool. I was like,

417
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 1: we were getting ready for I was getting ready for

418
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 1: hour four. I was like, the show's over, Like I'm

419
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: ready for another hour. I mean, I don't know what

420
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 1: is this.

421
00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 4: That's how we feel when we fill in for the

422
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 4: Dan Patrick Show. We're like a third hour, three hours,

423
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 4: and in that third hour we're like, man, we should

424
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 4: be home already.

425
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, you're used to your your routine and

426
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: and but but yeah, I know it was it was fun.

427
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 1: We had a good time.

428
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 3: Did you guys actually get into it over any topics?

429
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,120
Speaker 1: No, it was we We didn't really fight too much,

430
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 1: and usually what we fight about is baseball. There was

431
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 1: there really wasn't anything juicy in baseball that really really

432
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: got going. We we did debate Russell Wilson. That was

433
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:34,679
Speaker 1: the one that resonated with the insers who and they

434
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 1: got pretty upset with me, which is annoying because it's

435
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 1: it's one of these things that we have to deal

436
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 1: with in sports radio where you know you're right and

437
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,160
Speaker 1: the people on the other side are just being fanboys

438
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:50,359
Speaker 1: and they're delusional and they're you know, fan is short

439
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 1: for fanatic and all that, and like they're they're really

440
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: trying to upsell Russell Wilson. They were given me the

441
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: whole arguments like well, you know, twenty six touchdowns and

442
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 1: it or someven because my whole point it was that

443
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 1: this is not an upgrade. If Russell Wilson is indeed

444
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,919
Speaker 1: the starter in Pittsburgh, this is a lateral move. You

445
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 1: might as well have kept Kenny Pickett. And they were

446
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 1: getting so upset. They thought this was like the most

447
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: outrageous thing, being a shock jocking. So I knew I

448
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 1: was right, and I was like, okay, I'll let you

449
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:21,879
Speaker 1: be an idiot, let you be all emotional and ver

450
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: klempt Oh. Russell Wilson's great. You know you said he

451
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:30,240
Speaker 1: was good at one point. Great, And I'm thinking of myself.

452
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:34,400
Speaker 1: He's never ever gotten a single vote for the Most

453
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: Valuable Player Award. Don't you think maybe one of those years,

454
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 1: if he was great, he would have gotten I don't know,

455
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: one vote for the MVP award. Possibly, Like he has

456
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: as many votes as you listening have, Danny and me,

457
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: all of us, that's it, you know, as many votes

458
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 1: for the MVP. We have as many as Russell Wilson.

459
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,680
Speaker 1: The mother of all stats, which I was very proud.

460
00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 1: I dug deep in the rabbit hole.

461
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:00,439
Speaker 3: On this one, Danny.

462
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 1: So, last season, Russell Wilson in Denver had twenty six

463
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: touchdown passes and eight interceptions, So those numbers look pretty good.

464
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 1: I was like, well, those are misleading numbers, you know.

465
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 1: I was pointing out that that's not really an accurate

466
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,880
Speaker 1: reflection of his performance. And it was going through all that,

467
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 1: and I then stumbled on this mother of all stats,

468
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: which I'm very proud of, very very proud of. So

469
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: with Russell Wilson in Denver last year, the Broncos passing

470
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 1: offense ranked twenty fourth in the NFL. The Pittsburgh Steelers,

471
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: who mostly had Kenny Pickett, finished twenty fifth in passing offense.

472
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:46,360
Speaker 3: Wow.

473
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: The difference between the Russell Wilson led Broncos and the

474
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: Kenny Pickett led Steelers was two point nine yards per

475
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: game difference between the Broncos and Steelers. So that's within

476
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,400
Speaker 1: the margin everver. So I point this out of and

477
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 1: what do you think the Steeler fans do?

478
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 3: Well, it doesn't matter.

479
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: You're just giving numbers, of course, and you give me

480
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: numbers back at me. The twenty six and eight, you

481
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,920
Speaker 1: give me those numbers. Russell Wilson has been sucking for

482
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:14,479
Speaker 1: at least three years, and I look forward to his

483
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 1: failure in Pittsburgh. I like Mike Tomlin, but there they'll

484
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,679
Speaker 1: win some games because of their defensive special teams, but

485
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,120
Speaker 1: not because of Russell Wilson. And so we we got.

486
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 4: Did you celebrate after you made that point? Did you

487
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 4: grab your junk like Jesse Winker of the Mets?

488
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 2: Oh?

489
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,919
Speaker 1: When he was You know what I did? I dotted

490
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,199
Speaker 1: the eye like the Ohio State marching bat. I I

491
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 1: doubt that. Yeah, yes, what's he gonna do?

492
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 3: You did the move and you're like, lateral bitches.

493
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: What's he gonna do if he ends up? Jesse went,

494
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 1: you're hitting a home run in a playoff game because

495
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 1: he's You can't get more over the top than what

496
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 1: he did hitting a home run against the Baltimore Memorials.

497
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 1: So what's he gonna do if you it's a home

498
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 1: run in a in a big spot, in a playoff game.

499
00:25:58,280 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 3: This was a regular season game.

500
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 4: I know the Mets are trying to chase that last

501
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:05,640
Speaker 4: wildcard spot, but he said he blocked out. You're right,

502
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 4: what's gonna happen if he's on a bigger stage?

503
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, good luck on that? Are we have the idiom

504
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 1: of the the idiom of the week. It's an email

505
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: from our friend Sarah in Minnesota, and Sarah says, hey,

506
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: Ben and Danny, this phrase has bugged me for a

507
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 1: long time. Push it back, which actually means to push

508
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:32,679
Speaker 1: it forward by some amount. Why it makes no sense

509
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 1: to me? Think of another saying turning back the hands

510
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: of time. We all know that means to go back

511
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: in time. Why does push it back mean to go forward?

512
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: She says? Thanks guys. Sarah from Minnesota says Ben. By

513
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 1: the way, we met you at the mal Or Meet

514
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 1: and greet in Minnesota last May, and we still wear

515
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 1: our purple shirts from that event. Well, thank you.

516
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that's the event where you were kind of

517
00:26:58,240 --> 00:26:59,879
Speaker 4: in a bad mood at first because you had just

518
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:01,159
Speaker 4: got a speeding ticket.

519
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 1: Yes, on my way on my way to the event,

520
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: I got pulled over by the Minnesota state trooper. But yes,

521
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 1: I do remember meeting you, Sarah, and it was great.

522
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 1: We had a great time. But here's the problem, though, Sarah,

523
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 1: I went deep into the dark web to try to

524
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 1: find the origins of push it back, and I failed you.

525
00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 1: I could not find anything. You have stumped me. So

526
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 1: if anyone listening here, if you listening, has the answer

527
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 1: to push it back, Like I've I've heard it. That's

528
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:31,879
Speaker 1: like a cheer if you go to a high school

529
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 1: football game, push it back, push it back, right, isn't

530
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 1: that one of the cheers the cheerleaders do.

531
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

532
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 4: It was also a big hit by Salt and Peppa.

533
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,120
Speaker 1: Well, yeah that too, but it was like defense, push

534
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,479
Speaker 1: it back, push back. It sounds like a high school,

535
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,919
Speaker 1: high school thing, so I could I couldn't find that.

536
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:50,120
Speaker 3: Now.

537
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 1: The idiom that we are going to use here is

538
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,479
Speaker 1: chip on your shoulder. You ever used that? Hey, this

539
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,399
Speaker 1: guy's got a chip on his shoulder, right, you know

540
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 1: that guy over? That guy a schmuck, it's got a

541
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:02,400
Speaker 1: chip on his shoulder.

542
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:04,360
Speaker 3: Gotta be right.

543
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:09,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess from freed Ola. It's the Freeto Bandito

544
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 1: came up with it. Actually, no, the term to have

545
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: a chip on your shoulder originated in the eighteenth century

546
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 1: the British royal dockyards. Now, the way this works, the

547
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,639
Speaker 1: legend goes that way back in the eighteenth century, the

548
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 1: fellas working on the ship they were called ship rights,

549
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:34,360
Speaker 1: and the people that employed them through them a solid

550
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,919
Speaker 1: They were permitted to carry chips pieces of wood for

551
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 1: fuel or building. They could carry some chips home on

552
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 1: their shoulders, and the meaning first appeared in a play.

553
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 1: The phrase also reported to be originated the modern version

554
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: from the nineteenth century and the practice for a fight.

555
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: If you wanted to engage in a fight, supposedly you

556
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 1: carry a chip of wood on your shoulder and you

557
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 1: dare someone like, hey, Danny, I dare you to knock

558
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 1: this off my shoulder? I dare you, you know, and

559
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 1: you know, chip on your shoulder, and then somebody would

560
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 1: try to knock it off, and then you'd engage in

561
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: a fight. I think the British the British shipyard once

562
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 1: seems more more viable to me, or more viable. But

563
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 1: those are the two origin stories for chip on the shoulder.

564
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 1: I think we'll get out on that. Danny. It is Saturday.

565
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: You got anything going on today? What do you got

566
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: in your world?

567
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 4: Well, after I finished producing this fine podcast, got to

568
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 4: sit my big butt down in front of the TV

569
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 4: and watch Florida State at Georgia Tech.

570
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, can you believe it's time for

571
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 3: college football?

572
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:58,440
Speaker 4: And then in just what a short week, in a

573
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 4: few days NFL.

574
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, we've got college football this weekend. Next weekend,

575
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 1: college football has the full slate because the NFL is dark.

576
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 1: And then the week after that it starts on Thursday night,

577
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 1: Chiefs and Ravens, I believe is the first game. I

578
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 1: think that's the first game of the NFL season. All right,

579
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:21,959
Speaker 1: very good. I will be hanging out, schmoozing around, messing

580
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 1: with my powerwasher, and probably doing something on the griddle.

581
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 1: But I have a wonderful, wonderful rest of your Saturday,

582
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,840
