WEBVTT - The Fifth Hour: "Leave the Light On For Ya" Mail Bag 0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:04.960 Kabooms. If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred 0:00:05.000 --> 0:00:08.559 minutes a week was enough, think again. He's the last 0:00:08.640 --> 0:00:12.200 remnants of the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. 0:00:12.360 --> 0:00:15.360 He treats crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as 0:00:15.360 --> 0:00:18.640 the rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow. It's a 0:00:18.760 --> 0:00:22.800 clearinghouse of hot takes. Break free for something special. The 0:00:22.840 --> 0:00:29.040 Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now, nine in 0:00:29.240 --> 0:00:35.800 the air. Everywhere. The Fifth Hour main bang, hanging out, 0:00:36.120 --> 0:00:40.560 blabbing away all weekend long, because four hours a night 0:00:40.720 --> 0:00:43.640 or not at off we do eight days a week, 0:00:43.840 --> 0:00:46.680 eight days a week. We are hanging out with you 0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:52.199 here in the audio dojo, and it's a big Sunday extravagance. 0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:54.280 We've got the mail bag. But before we get to 0:00:54.280 --> 0:00:57.200 the mail bag, originally I think we're gonna do this 0:00:57.240 --> 0:01:00.440 on Friday, and then we're gonna do on a set today, 0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:02.800 and we've got to do it right now. We need 0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:06.360 to get scientifical, is what we need to do, and 0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:10.199 time shifted it for ratings purposes exactly exactly. So let's 0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:14.200 get into the science world. These are actual stories that 0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:19.400 cut our attention and in honor of Penn and Teller, 0:01:19.520 --> 0:01:22.319 these old comedians who used to have a TV show 0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:26.319 that was called Bullshit. We will determine whether we believe 0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:30.000 this stuff or we think it's bullshit. Here's a story 0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:33.560 that was sent in by Alf the Alien opiner from Springfield, 0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:39.880 mass says, the dogs of Chernobyl are experiencing rapid evolution 0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:49.600 according to or the henines have acquired big subheadline strange 0:01:49.680 --> 0:01:57.280 mutations because they live near Chernobyl. And so the studies 0:01:57.760 --> 0:01:59.440 people have been science has been there trying to study 0:01:59.480 --> 0:02:02.480 all these things. A new study analyzed the DNA of 0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:05.680 three hundred two feral dogs living near the power plant, 0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:10.400 compared the animals to others living ten miles away and 0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:15.520 found amazing differences. And so the study does not prove 0:02:15.560 --> 0:02:19.760 that radiation is the cause of these things, but it provides, 0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:24.280 they say, the first step in analyzing what's going on. 0:02:24.320 --> 0:02:28.200 So this Chernobyl thing all the way back to nineteen 0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:33.200 eighty six, when that happened April of nineteen eighty six 0:02:34.280 --> 0:02:39.200 and the meltdown and all that happened there, and here 0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:45.400 we are forty almost forty years later, and they're still 0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:49.000 figuring out what's going on. Nobody can live in that area. 0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:51.160 It's all messed up. But they've got feral dogs, a 0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:55.320 bunch of other animals. These are the descendants of pets 0:02:55.440 --> 0:02:58.440 left behind when everyone was trying to get out of 0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:04.000 Chernobyl because the thing exploded and all that, and so 0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:06.440 they went through us in the they're in the Chernobyl 0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:11.960 exclusion zone. They say it's the size of Yosemite National Park. 0:03:13.320 --> 0:03:15.840 And it's all about trying to figure out the what 0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:20.400 happens when you're exposed to radiation, how it has altered 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:27.840 the DNA of these animals. And they say, even speeding 0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:31.679 up evolution, is that a bad thing or a good thing? 0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:33.679 Maybe that's a good thing. That could be a good thing, right. 0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:39.200 Maybe it sounds creepy, Yeah, it does, it does it? 0:03:39.360 --> 0:03:43.200 As they started examining the DNA three hunder two feral 0:03:43.280 --> 0:03:48.760 dogs found around that area, and the New York Times 0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:51.760 had a story on this. They dug into it, and 0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:55.080 they're trying to figure out exactly what's going on. They've 0:03:55.120 --> 0:04:00.520 been analyzing all kinds of animals. They're including rodents, birds 0:04:01.480 --> 0:04:06.200 and whatnot, but this is focusing on dogs. And from 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:08.760 the sounds of this, it sounds like they think that 0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:13.240 the as I said, the mutations are taking place. Things 0:04:13.240 --> 0:04:15.320 are being sped up that aren't supposed to be sped up, 0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:17.359 or maybe they are supposed to be sped up and 0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:21.360 we don't know about it. Well, that's interesting. Next up 0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:26.159 from the from the ocean, the Immortal jellyfish. They found 0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:30.240 scientists that found a jellyfish they claim that can practically 0:04:30.360 --> 0:04:34.960 turn back time. They're they're saying that they're going to 0:04:35.160 --> 0:04:39.000 use what this jellyfish does and they hope to bring 0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:42.640 this to the human world and that will benefit from this. 0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:46.000 Of course, chances of that happening are slim and none. 0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:51.039 But these these jellyfish, they do not die a natural 0:04:51.200 --> 0:04:57.760 death they age, but instead they return to infancy. So 0:04:57.839 --> 0:05:01.240 instead of dying, they just returned infancy. How crazy is that? 0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:05.840 Like Benjamin Button, Yeah, they're trying to figure out how 0:05:05.880 --> 0:05:11.040 they do that. It was an interesting story I checked out, 0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:12.880 so if you're interesting that you can you can check 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:16.320 it out. And there's a bunch of stories on science 0:05:17.200 --> 0:05:23.159 platforms about aging. Can humans stop the aging process? They 0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:26.440 there's one report that says humans can stop but not 0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:33.520 fully reverse aging. So there's there's that report, and then 0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:39.720 there's another report that says that you know, by twenty 0:05:39.720 --> 0:05:45.599 thirty you'll be able to to create like an an 0:05:45.640 --> 0:05:50.760 avatar of yourself, And so some wild tales out there 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:53.479 in the science world. I think we'll leave that alone. 0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:54.880 There were some other stories, but I want to get 0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:57.320 to the mailbag. Danny g Let's do it. That's what 0:05:57.400 --> 0:06:15.640 Sundays are famous for. It's okay, Ohio, al thank you 0:06:15.720 --> 0:06:19.039 yet again? First up on the mailback, Mike in Fullerton 0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:21.599 rights and he says, Hey, Bannon, Danny Gee, I have 0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:26.080 a few questions on radio caller etiquette. He says, Is 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:28.960 it more annoying for a caller to talk over you 0:06:29.760 --> 0:06:34.200 or leave dead air? With slow responses? He says, even 0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:38.240 though you always have a snarky response, ready, would you 0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:42.480 be fine with never being asked? How are you doing? Ever? Again? 0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:47.440 Is that worst way to start a call? So I 0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:50.360 answer that one first. It is a terrible way to 0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:54.159 start a call. But it's what everyone does. Everyone does. 0:06:54.320 --> 0:06:57.360 They all do this. It's like how you doing? It's 0:06:57.360 --> 0:07:00.000 like you don't know what to do and you get nervous, 0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:05.320 and so it's a natural reaction. And it's like why 0:07:05.480 --> 0:07:10.440 we say the word hello? They could have we talked 0:07:10.440 --> 0:07:13.400 about this on the podcast. I don't know, maybe with you, Danny. 0:07:13.440 --> 0:07:16.560 I don't maybe before you were on the podcast. But originally, 0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:18.520 when the phone was invented, they had to come up 0:07:18.560 --> 0:07:21.160 with a way so somebody on the other line when 0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:24.760 you called somebody and you were talking, what the introduction 0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:28.440 would be, and they decided on hello. The other option 0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:32.720 was a hoy. They were considering saying a hoy yeah, 0:07:32.760 --> 0:07:37.000 and that was under consideration. It is an awkward thing, 0:07:37.000 --> 0:07:39.080 and I get asked more on the radio how am 0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:41.040 I doing than anywhere else in life. Do you get 0:07:41.080 --> 0:07:44.280 asked anywhere else, Danny, how are you doing today? No? 0:07:44.520 --> 0:07:50.200 I mean because customer service is pretty shitty nowadays at stores, 0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:53.320 at restaurants ever since COVID. It seems like so we 0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:56.600 don't really hear that that often the one thing that's 0:07:56.640 --> 0:07:59.800 a pet peeve is and not. This doesn't really apply 0:07:59.880 --> 0:08:02.600 to your show because a lot of your callers are 0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:06.680 regular callers that everybody knows. But on like Covino and Rich, 0:08:06.720 --> 0:08:10.800 where it's random callers from different cities, I'll scream the call. 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:14.320 Ramos has it pretty loud in the studio. So I'm 0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:16.560 doing the very best I can to hear the caller, 0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:20.600 but I type it as Tom in Arkansas, and when 0:08:20.640 --> 0:08:23.920 he gets on the air, he corrects the hosts and 0:08:24.000 --> 0:08:30.280 he's like, it's Tom, not Tom. Yeah, your name could 0:08:30.280 --> 0:08:34.800 be fruit loop. It doesn't matter. To the point, Well, 0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:38.080 to that person, the sweetest sound in the language is 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:40.920 the name of you know, their voice, the name I 0:08:40.920 --> 0:08:43.360 should say in your voice and whatever. But I know 0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:48.480 I get another pet peeve of caller etiquette for Mike 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:51.400 and fuller to no relation to furg dog at all, 0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:55.640 no relation to furg dog at all. Another pet peeve 0:08:55.800 --> 0:09:00.080 is I was talking to your screener. That is That 0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:03.480 is a pippie because the magic, part of the magic 0:09:03.559 --> 0:09:07.959 of radio is that it's that's the conversation. No one 0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:12.439 knows what happens off the air. So if you're referencing 0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:19.240 I was talking to your screener, that's that's that's not 0:09:19.360 --> 0:09:21.240 to me, that's a pain in the in the behind, 0:09:21.280 --> 0:09:25.079 because you're like, you're ruining the whole magic. Nobody heard that. 0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:27.960 That's a private conversation. You don't need to share every 0:09:27.960 --> 0:09:32.120 private conversation, understand you know what I mean? Danny, And 0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:34.600 let me preface this by saying, I love the callers 0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:39.079 that participate in the topics, but don't tell me your 0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:43.080 whole story. To your point, Ben, save it for on air. 0:09:43.520 --> 0:09:46.040 That's something we tell each other a lot in the hallways. 0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:49.840 When we start laughing about something, you'll hear someone say 0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:52.000 save it for on air, save it, save it for 0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:55.120 on air. And when I screen the calls, I'll say, 0:09:55.320 --> 0:09:58.079 what's your name, what's your city? Thank you for calling? 0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:01.520 Which topic are you calling in about? And that's all 0:10:01.520 --> 0:10:04.120 you gotta answer. It's just, Oh, I'm calling about the 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:07.360 Costco clothes you guys were talking about. Okay, great, And 0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:09.880 I type that in on the screen so the guys 0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:14.080 can see what you're calling about. But what I get is, well, 0:10:14.320 --> 0:10:16.560 you guys were talking about Costco clothes. And let me 0:10:16.600 --> 0:10:19.000 tell you. You know, when I go there with my 0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:23.440 wife and I'm sitting there and there's no nice way 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:26.760 for me to interrupt and get off that line, but 0:10:26.920 --> 0:10:30.000 all the other lines are ringing, and it's like that 0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:33.839 scene in Jerry McGuire where all the other lines start 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:39.240 disappearing because he's on the one call. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:42.880 hear yeah, it's save it for on air. You're like 0:10:43.000 --> 0:10:46.560 trying to herd cats or something like that when you're 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:50.160 you're doing that with the phones. And Mike also says, 0:10:50.600 --> 0:10:53.640 what do you both think is the most common reason 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:58.520 you'd say a call was a bad call? All of 0:10:58.520 --> 0:11:01.440 the above everything we've talked about two And to go 0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:04.320 back to the first point you the first question you asked, Mike, 0:11:05.040 --> 0:11:08.040 I would much rather have someone talk over me than 0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:12.079 be half half there where they're not even paying attention. 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:17.560 That's that's bad. That's I'd rather have you sleeping where 0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:20.960 I can hear you snore than where you're you're kind 0:11:20.960 --> 0:11:23.800 of there but you're not really there, or you're you're 0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:26.600 having a conversation with someone else. That's also a paint 0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:30.320 in the behind, or any of the slow responses and 0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:33.240 all that. Next up on the mailback, John in Northern 0:11:33.240 --> 0:11:36.480 Colorado says, do you guys ever argue with your lady 0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:42.439 over the proper loading of the dishwasher? Yeah? So, we 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:45.000 we have discussed this in the past as things go 0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:47.440 flying here in the studio, but we have discussed in 0:11:47.480 --> 0:11:50.000 the past. I am the dishwasher at the mallor mansion, 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:54.360 and I handle that my my wife. The reason I'm 0:11:54.400 --> 0:11:56.640 the dishwasher is my wife used to be the dishwasher 0:11:57.040 --> 0:12:01.480 and the food would It was insane how much food 0:12:01.600 --> 0:12:03.560 was at the bottom of the dishwasher. And so I 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:06.520 decided I made an executive decision because it was one 0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:09.400 of the most disgusting things I'd ever seen, because my 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:11.840 wife thought it was like out of the jetsins or something. 0:12:11.920 --> 0:12:13.920 You just put it in there and it cleans everything 0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:17.080 and you don't have to wash off the dishes at all, 0:12:17.120 --> 0:12:19.240 and it was really bad. They were like peas and 0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:23.040 macaroni and spaghetti at the bottom of the dishwasher. Was disgusting. 0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:26.320 Good now that, yeah, that's gross. I mean the dishwasher 0:12:27.000 --> 0:12:30.679 is basically just to polish off the job. You are 0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:34.240 supposed to clean the dishes yourself and then put them 0:12:34.280 --> 0:12:36.960 in there so when I load the dishwasher there is 0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:40.920 no food evidence whatsoever. Yeah, it's a sanitized thing. The 0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:43.880 dishwasher is really hot sanitizes, but you got to wash 0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:46.400 it before and yeah, you're exactly, it's like the final 0:12:46.960 --> 0:12:52.120 the final push. Next up on the mail bag Frank 0:12:52.360 --> 0:12:54.240 Rights and from part zon on he says, what's the 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:59.520 best or doors or doors orders and that you've had 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:03.480 it a mine was grilled cheese with shots of tomatoes 0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:09.600 soup at my cousin's wedding. Wow, that sounds good. Yeah, 0:13:09.760 --> 0:13:12.840 that is pretty good. I've had some decent wedding appetizers. 0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:16.520 I love those little mini tacos. Those mini takidos are 0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:20.680 pretty good. About the little pigs in a blanket not bad, 0:13:20.840 --> 0:13:25.280 not bad. Mini corn dogs which is the pick corn 0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:27.040 on the top, that's not bad at all. I like 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:31.240 that Terryoki on a stick, Teryoki all piece of teryoki, 0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:34.200 chicken on the sticks to go to. I don't mind that. 0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:40.000 I'm trying to think those are usually the go to Eddie. 0:13:40.040 --> 0:13:43.480 When Eddie got married, he made sure my meal was 0:13:43.559 --> 0:13:46.160 chicken fingers, which was very nice because he knew I 0:13:46.160 --> 0:13:48.520 didn't want to eat wedding food like that rubber chicken. 0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:52.600 At the wedding his wife, Karen and Eddie they made 0:13:52.640 --> 0:13:54.280 sure that I had the kid's menu, but I had 0:13:54.280 --> 0:13:57.679 an adult portion. My lips have been on it, so 0:13:57.720 --> 0:14:01.120 that was that was pretty nice. Thanks for that, Frank 0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:06.000 Nick in Wisconsin right since its banning Danny Gee, if 0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:10.000 you have your choice, are you choosing traditional toilet paper 0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:13.880 or would you rather have a bidet? I cannot wait 0:14:13.920 --> 0:14:16.040 for the Minnesota meet and greet will Thank you, Nick. 0:14:16.080 --> 0:14:18.600 I'm looking forward to meeting you May twentieth. Let me 0:14:18.640 --> 0:14:21.800 know if you're interested in purchasing one of those shirts 0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:24.440 that I'll I'll have. Maybe I already have it up. 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:30.480 I don't know this weekend here. So to answer Nick's question, 0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:33.640 I have become a fan of the bidet, Danny, I 0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:37.600 gotta tell you, really, Yeah, something I never thought I 0:14:37.600 --> 0:14:41.160 would be a fan of. I feel very clean with 0:14:41.280 --> 0:14:44.360 the bidet. I I don't like that feeling though, of 0:14:44.760 --> 0:14:47.840 wetness there right. I wish that there was a better 0:14:47.840 --> 0:14:51.200 way to dry. The drying process is the problem. But 0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:53.640 you can you can use both. You could do the 0:14:53.680 --> 0:14:56.720 bidet and then it's much like we just we just 0:14:56.840 --> 0:15:02.120 talked about. Yeah, the dishwashers the closer, So you could 0:15:02.200 --> 0:15:04.760 argue the bidet is the main event, and then the 0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:08.160 closer to come into Mariano Rivera to close out the 0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:10.840 ninth inning would be just a little piece of toilet paper. 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:13.360 I might as well just stick to what I already 0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:17.960 do is the baby wipes, Daddy. Yeah, but you're not 0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:20.080 even to flush the baby wipes. You're not supposed to 0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:22.640 flush it because it destroys the plumbing in your house. Oh, 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:26.160 I destroy everybody's plumbing. Okay, all right. I used to 0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:29.680 do that too, and then I got a lecture. There's 0:15:29.680 --> 0:15:32.560 a brand or two where they have proven that they 0:15:32.560 --> 0:15:36.200 will not back up plumbing. So go with those two brands. 0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:40.080 I don't know but that I'm a little some cheap 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:43.760 costco kind though. That yeah, boy, that Kirkland brand that'll 0:15:43.800 --> 0:15:48.080 back up an entire hotel. You wash your mouth out 0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:51.360 with soap and water. Next up on the mail bag, 0:15:52.600 --> 0:15:56.000 let's see here. I think this is from our buddy 0:15:56.000 --> 0:16:01.200 in Phoenix, and he says, what games did you have 0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:05.200 on your cell phone? Or what which do you recommend? 0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:09.560 Are you playing any games on your cell phone? I 0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:13.240 think that's the question. You do want any gaming, Danny 0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:16.480 right now? On the phone? Anything stand out there? You know, 0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:19.200 I only have one game on my cell phone, and 0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:23.800 it is that Airplane game nineteen forty two. That's your game, 0:16:23.880 --> 0:16:26.600 that's your that's the game. That's the go to game 0:16:27.160 --> 0:16:29.640 when I'm waiting in a long line to pick up food. 0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:34.120 So to answer the question, I have also like you, 0:16:34.200 --> 0:16:36.240 we're very similar in that regard. I have one game 0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:38.840 at a time that I play a lot of and 0:16:38.920 --> 0:16:42.000 the game right now that I play is let me, 0:16:42.120 --> 0:16:46.040 let me get it up for you here, giggy, I've 0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:52.480 this button here, and my go to game is scrabble. 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:54.840 I'm a I'm a big scrabble guy. That was by 0:16:54.840 --> 0:16:57.200 the way, Lee, our buddy Lee in the Valley of 0:16:57.200 --> 0:17:02.960 the Sun. At least he's a good guy. And yeah, 0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:05.240 so I I play scrabble, and I usually play a 0:17:05.240 --> 0:17:08.040 game until I get burned out on I played Tetris. 0:17:08.080 --> 0:17:13.840 Has been my game before Solitaire, but now currently now 0:17:13.880 --> 0:17:17.760 it's scrabble, scrabble, scrabble, scrabble, scrabble. What else we have? 0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:20.320 Fred in Spring Texas writes in on the mail bag. 0:17:20.400 --> 0:17:23.800 He says, Hey, guys, do either of you have mementos 0:17:23.800 --> 0:17:27.800 you keep that remind you of your parents or your grandparents? 0:17:27.800 --> 0:17:31.680 He says, really enjoy the show, thank you? Fred. Yes, yes, absolutely, 0:17:32.320 --> 0:17:37.040 both my parents were gone unfortunately, so I have photos 0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:41.200 and you know, pretty much everything from my youth that 0:17:41.560 --> 0:17:44.359 my parents were involved in. I have a few things 0:17:44.359 --> 0:17:47.800 spread around the house to remind me of the good 0:17:47.800 --> 0:17:50.680 times with my mom and my dad, and so absolutely 0:17:50.720 --> 0:17:53.359 I have I have several things around there. Anything for 0:17:53.440 --> 0:17:56.879 your your grandparents, Danny, anything you want to you know, 0:17:57.119 --> 0:18:01.359 share that you have. Yeah, my grandfather left me a 0:18:01.480 --> 0:18:06.160 really cool it's like this little Bentley leather bag. He 0:18:06.160 --> 0:18:09.600 held his pipe in it. That's how old school it is. 0:18:10.080 --> 0:18:13.800 Smoke weed every day. Oh that's cool. There you go, 0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:17.480 all right, very good. Next up we have ozzywas from 0:18:17.480 --> 0:18:20.080 Western Australia, he writes, and he says, high mates, Benny 0:18:20.160 --> 0:18:24.520 the Bopper and microphone throttler. My question for this week 0:18:24.600 --> 0:18:27.399 have you ever had to wear a uniform for a 0:18:27.520 --> 0:18:31.600 job or a particular event for work? Just my items 0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:36.680 of no choice for work are a high is long 0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:41.879 pants and shirt with reflective tape, steel cap boots and 0:18:42.000 --> 0:18:46.000 a hard hat. Says Ozzy was out in Australia, so 0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:48.679 not really working in radio. I've had to wear like 0:18:48.880 --> 0:18:53.960 station gear at events and that's a that's about it. 0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:55.760 And when I did stuff with the Dodgers, you had 0:18:55.800 --> 0:18:58.800 to wear nice clothes on the plane. You had to 0:18:58.880 --> 0:19:02.760 dress up for that. But not that's not wearing steel 0:19:02.840 --> 0:19:08.160 cap boots. What about No, you're right, our entire careers 0:19:08.160 --> 0:19:12.959 have boiled down to staff t shirts. Yes, and photo 0:19:13.040 --> 0:19:17.480 occasionally photoshoots with jackets and sers. And things like that. 0:19:17.560 --> 0:19:21.040 But that's about it. Yeah, that's about it. Let's see. 0:19:21.080 --> 0:19:24.840 Next up, we have Callaghan Tim from Sturgis, Michigan. He says, hey, guys, 0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:27.360 I grew up in Los Angeles. I moved to Michigan 0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:30.840 when I was thirty, so that's how I got Callaghan Tim. 0:19:31.920 --> 0:19:34.600 I used to watch the King's practice in the morning. 0:19:34.600 --> 0:19:36.719 He's selling some stories here. Get a bunch of stories 0:19:37.160 --> 0:19:40.720 about the Kings and the Lakers. Anybody on the Clippers 0:19:40.800 --> 0:19:45.040 is a half of what Kobe Bryant is. And he 0:19:45.160 --> 0:19:47.640 told the story about Phil Jackson almost running him over 0:19:47.640 --> 0:19:51.040 at the Laker facility. He told the story about Isaiah 0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:54.719 Ryder and the real reason he got suspended. So there 0:19:54.720 --> 0:19:58.040 are some interesting stories there. He says he would go 0:19:58.119 --> 0:20:00.920 hang out and Phil was flying in the parking lot 0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:05.560 one time, and he says, as he was walking, this guy, 0:20:05.720 --> 0:20:09.520 Callaghan Tim, was walking across the lane in the parking lot. 0:20:10.119 --> 0:20:13.520 The back end of Phil Jackson's poor slid out of 0:20:13.560 --> 0:20:17.359 control and he says Tim, he had to dive into 0:20:17.400 --> 0:20:21.639 a bush. He landed on his head, his feet. Tim says, 0:20:21.640 --> 0:20:26.640 we're up in the air everywhere, and he said, Phil Jackson, 0:20:26.720 --> 0:20:30.919 this Endmaster rolled down his window and says, sorry, buddy. 0:20:31.600 --> 0:20:33.840 And then the guy opened the gate at the Laker 0:20:33.960 --> 0:20:37.679 facility and he floored it into the gated area away 0:20:37.720 --> 0:20:41.439 from the unwashed. So that would have been quite if 0:20:41.440 --> 0:20:44.000 Phil Jackson had run over Callighan Tim, that would have 0:20:44.000 --> 0:20:47.439 been a big story at the time. Yeah. Yeah. And 0:20:47.480 --> 0:20:50.159 Tim also says he says, I've emailed you guys a 0:20:50.160 --> 0:20:53.560 few weeks ago about what I do while I'm listing, 0:20:53.640 --> 0:20:57.119 and I told you. Tim says that when the weather 0:20:57.240 --> 0:20:59.679 is nice, I have three acres tomorrow. I remember this 0:20:59.720 --> 0:21:03.520 guy three acres the mos Some of my property is woods. 0:21:04.320 --> 0:21:07.000 Danny g asked if I can if he can live here, 0:21:07.600 --> 0:21:10.400 I asked for an anchor. Yeah, he says, I can 0:21:10.480 --> 0:21:12.840 build him a house in the back of my property. 0:21:12.880 --> 0:21:14.560 So he's offering to build you a house if you 0:21:14.600 --> 0:21:17.880 want to live in Sturgis, Michigan. Danny Tim says he will. 0:21:17.960 --> 0:21:19.720 He will build you a little house in the back 0:21:19.720 --> 0:21:22.560 of his property. He says, Danny, are you good with 0:21:22.800 --> 0:21:27.639 three bedroom, two bath. Just a warning, he says, we 0:21:27.720 --> 0:21:33.360 have deer, raccoons, possums, squirrels, rabbits, chipmunks, and a bobcat. 0:21:33.480 --> 0:21:38.000 We call Frank. He's kind of an asshole, but he 0:21:38.119 --> 0:21:42.080 keeps all the small animals at bay. He just leaves 0:21:42.400 --> 0:21:46.080 the head the heads in the yard. And he said, 0:21:46.119 --> 0:21:48.760 we have a lake that's a two minute walk from 0:21:48.800 --> 0:21:53.240 the property. It sounds beautiful. And Kid Rock taught us 0:21:53.280 --> 0:21:57.320 that Michigan is beautiful in the summertime. So if it's free, 0:21:57.359 --> 0:22:01.600 it's for me. I'm down Sturgis, Michigan.

Guy, is there an item 0:24:02.160 --> 0:24:04.760 that is on your wish list that you can't afford 0:24:04.800 --> 0:24:08.640 but you would feel guilty buying. It's possibly something that 0:24:08.840 --> 0:24:10.719 you'd be more likely to pull a trigger on if 0:24:10.720 --> 0:24:17.280 you were a single anything pop up there, Danny, I 0:24:18.080 --> 0:24:20.000 don't really have anything. I don't I don't really need 0:24:20.040 --> 0:24:23.280 that much stuff. And yeah, I feel like when I 0:24:23.320 --> 0:24:26.320 need something, I kind of get it. I'm not really 0:24:26.359 --> 0:24:28.400 having a midlife crisis like I need to go out 0:24:28.520 --> 0:24:31.280 get something. So I think I'm good. Yeah, my wife 0:24:31.480 --> 0:24:34.240 is pretty cool with you know, things that I liked 0:24:34.400 --> 0:24:37.520 that I want to get. Like when I was shopping 0:24:37.560 --> 0:24:40.560 for my car, she could have been bitchy about the 0:24:40.600 --> 0:24:43.919 price or the kind of fast car I like or wanted. 0:24:44.359 --> 0:24:47.840 But her attitude is whatever makes you happy, whatever makes 0:24:47.880 --> 0:24:50.199 you smile. It's a cool thing to have in a 0:24:50.280 --> 0:24:53.600 significant other. You still need to finish off my car, Ben, 0:24:53.640 --> 0:24:56.760 because I don't have tinted windows yet, and I want 0:24:56.760 --> 0:25:00.920 to get a performance muffler put in. And yeah, so 0:25:01.000 --> 0:25:03.760 you add a few things. I was I was shocked 0:25:03.760 --> 0:25:06.680 about how expensive it is to get professional window tinting 0:25:06.720 --> 0:25:10.080 on a car. Yeah, it's gone up the past decade. 0:25:10.840 --> 0:25:13.200 What a what a hustle. I should get into that business. 0:25:13.320 --> 0:25:14.960 I think I could do it. I think I could 0:25:15.000 --> 0:25:17.480 do window tin and you know, there's have the reach. 0:25:17.920 --> 0:25:20.400 Yeah I got to read, but there's multiple versions of wind. 0:25:20.480 --> 0:25:23.360
