Speaker 1: Boom. If you thought four hours a day, minutes a
Speaker 1: week was enough, I think again. He's the last remnants
Speaker 1: of the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He
Speaker 1: treats crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as the
Speaker 1: rich pill poppers in the penthouse, to clearing house of
Speaker 1: hot takes, break free for something special. The Fifth Hour
Speaker 1: with Ben Maller starts right now in the air everywhere.
Speaker 1: We welcome into the podcast, Joe, Joe, It's the Fifth
Speaker 1: Hour with Ben Maller and Danny G Radio because four
Speaker 1: hours a night or not and off on the overnight.
Speaker 1: This a spinoff of that show, Danny of course, now
Speaker 1: big time daytime guy again working on uh Fox Sports
Speaker 1: radio show Just Lost. How's that going, by the way,
Speaker 1: Covino and Rich? Is that going well over there? Danny G? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's been going really good, funny shows every day, really
Speaker 1: entertain raining. But Ben, don't get it twisted. Half of
Speaker 1: the show is daytime. The other half of the show
Speaker 1: is a nighttime hour. Yes, you split right down the middle.
Speaker 1: You get half the daytime, half the nighttime. So half
Speaker 1: of you is very important, the other half not so important.
Speaker 1: So you you got a little bit of both worlds
Speaker 1: when you when you cross over the rubicon, it's lopsided
Speaker 1: because I'm with you the other time. So yes, So
Speaker 1: that's like that's out in the abyss. That's like in
Speaker 1: a black hole somewhere, but not the Raiders black hole.
Speaker 1: It's it's out far far away. All right. Let's let's
Speaker 1: get right into it here. It is the Fifth Hour.
Speaker 1: We do this every weekend Saturday, Sunday Friday. We have
Speaker 1: Benny versus the Penny until further notice on this podcast,
Speaker 1: and so we're keeping the good ship going. And on
Speaker 1: this edition of the Fifth Hour we have what's the number, Chicks, Revenge, Fleabag,
Speaker 1: Commercial Overload, and end back Scratcher. So a lot to
Speaker 1: get to, not a lot of time, Danny, So let's
Speaker 1: get going. Yes, let's do it all right, here we go.
Speaker 1: We start out with this. So I've been working out
Speaker 1: at the gym, and I'm not here to brag about
Speaker 1: working out in the gym. I wish I could work
Speaker 1: out at home, but my treadmill is still not up
Speaker 1: to speed. I moved over a year ago, and stuff
Speaker 1: still not where it needs to be, and there's stuff
Speaker 1: that needs to be fixed to get the treadmill working
Speaker 1: and all that. So I've been I've been going back
Speaker 1: to the gym. This past week was an interesting week,
Speaker 1: so I I mostly do cardio. I mostly do cardio.
Speaker 1: When I'm out there, I like, I listen to music,
Speaker 1: or I'll watch TV or whatever, and that's fine. Maybe
Speaker 1: I'll watch videos on YouTube on my phone. And they
Speaker 1: have a lot of crime at these gyms, Like there's
Speaker 1: a lot of people a break into lockers and stealing
Speaker 1: all kinds of crap, even where I live out in
Speaker 1: the north Woods. So I decided, since I go go
Speaker 1: back to the gym, and I don't want to use
Speaker 1: a locker because I don't want stuff to get stolen,
Speaker 1: and I don't want to leave stuff in my car
Speaker 1: because cars get broken into all the time. So I
Speaker 1: made a calculated decision. I decided to use They have
Speaker 1: these public lockers at the gym I go to, so
Speaker 1: it's open twenty four hours. If that gives you a clue,
Speaker 1: Danny Phone drizzle. At this particular gym, they have these
Speaker 1: lockers right in front and there for public use during
Speaker 1: the day or night whenever you're there and you don't
Speaker 1: need to use a lock they're out in public view,
Speaker 1: and you can put your personal items in there. And
Speaker 1: then the way it works is you you put your
Speaker 1: stuff in there, like for example, I put my car keys,
Speaker 1: my wallet in the locker, and you type in a
Speaker 1: pass code. It can be any pass code. It could
Speaker 1: be your phone number, your birthday, it could be some
Speaker 1: number that you remember, whatever it might be, and you
Speaker 1: twist the lock. You remember the number, and then you
Speaker 1: twist it again and bam, everything's locked, and that's it, right.
Speaker 1: And so I I've been using these things and I've
Speaker 1: used them for like the last couple of weeks, and
Speaker 1: so this week I put everything in, I twisted the lock,
Speaker 1: and then I went and I was sweating to the oldies,
Speaker 1: so I went or I was doing my cardio, I
Speaker 1: was on the treadmill. But this week was unlike all
Speaker 1: other weeks because while I was working out, I then
Speaker 1: went to kind of get a good sweat going. I
Speaker 1: went to the sauna in the steam room. I loved
Speaker 1: getting in there and get get all sweaty from that
Speaker 1: in addition to the to the workout. So I'm in
Speaker 1: there doing that thing and I come back and I'm like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I gotta get my stuff out my wallet and my
Speaker 1: my car keys, and I go to locker number seventeen
Speaker 1: and I punched in the code and I twist and uh.
Speaker 1: I twist again and wait, wait a minute, me, let
Speaker 1: me punch in the code again. And so I punched
Speaker 1: in the code again and I twisted and uh. And
Speaker 1: then I'm like, well, when maybe it wasn't locker number seventeen,
Speaker 1: it was locker fifty. So then I went over to
Speaker 1: locker fifteen and I punched my coat in and uh
Speaker 1: and then I twist at it and uh and and nothing.
Speaker 1: Nothing happened. So then I'm like, all right, it must
Speaker 1: be seventeen. So I went back to seventeen and I
Speaker 1: tried again and and no, And so I started panicking
Speaker 1: because I have my car keys and my wallet in
Speaker 1: this locker and I'm not sure whether it's seventeen or fifteen,
Speaker 1: but I think it's seventeen. And I'm like, what's going
Speaker 1: on here? And so I have to to go to
Speaker 1: the front desk at the gym, and this this overnight
Speaker 1: guy who's like, just leave me alone. You know. He's like,
Speaker 1: I'm a nice guy, but he's like, leave me alone.
Speaker 1: He's there overnight and I have to tell the guys like, hey,
Speaker 1: I need you to help me out. I need you
Speaker 1: to do me a solid. Here. I I locked my
Speaker 1: my lock I can't remember the code. I can't open
Speaker 1: the locker. And then the guy's like, well, you know
Speaker 1: I can't do anything. Give me ten minutes, right, So
Speaker 1: then ten minutes go by, he comes over. How embarrassing
Speaker 1: is this, by the way, So the guy comes over
Speaker 1: and he has a master key because he's a public locker,
Speaker 1: so they can open him up whenever they want. He uh,
Speaker 1: he comes over and real quick he opens it up
Speaker 1: and I got my stuff back. So I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: now we're good. So next time I use the locker,
Speaker 1: now this time I make complete and I'm making mental notes.
Speaker 1: I've got my phone with me, I'm taking pictures the
Speaker 1: whole thing, right, and uh, here's the code I punched
Speaker 1: in the hand of guy. I had this whole thing
Speaker 1: figured out and then never gonna happen to me again.
Speaker 1: Same thing happened. So I work out. I go back
Speaker 1: to the locker and I'm like, you know what's going
Speaker 1: on here? And I have to do the walk of shame.
Speaker 1: Same guy, the same guy is that the same guy, Danny.
Speaker 1: This guy gives me the look, are you the biggest
Speaker 1: moron in the world? What is are you stupid? How
Speaker 1: are you able to get out of bed and function? Now?
Speaker 1: He's giving me that kind of look like you drove
Speaker 1: the short bust, didn't you? You were on back His
Speaker 1: look of like if he could kill you with a stair,
Speaker 1: he did. And so it turns out the guy I
Speaker 1: finally figured out what had happened. So the locker was
Speaker 1: so delicate, and I guess this week I had really
Speaker 1: fat fingers because it's so sensitive that I barely touched
Speaker 1: the the code and it moved like one number, and
Speaker 1: you know, all it takes is one number and then
Speaker 1: that's it, you know. So I I had the past code, right,
Speaker 1: but I, in my I guess my rush to twist
Speaker 1: the lock and lock it, I hit the I hit
Speaker 1: the thing and it was very embarrassing, Danny. It was
Speaker 1: very embarrassing. So what's the number? I couldn't remember the number?
Speaker 1: Fumbling with fat fingers. It's not not good. There there
Speaker 1: will be revenge, but I guess we have different revenge
Speaker 1: right now. Rather than my revenge against that locker, there's
Speaker 1: other revenge to discuss. Yes. Yeah, last week on the podcast,
Speaker 1: I made a meme joke, not mean, but meme about
Speaker 1: Chick fil A, the where you I was gonna take
Speaker 1: the I was gonna corral the chickens. Remember we got
Speaker 1: that mail bag question about killing one chicken a day
Speaker 1: in your car or one human sized chicken once per
Speaker 1: year without notice. So I went with the daily chickens
Speaker 1: because I said I would corral them, and like that meme,
Speaker 1: I would open up a food truck only on Sundays
Speaker 1: right outside Chick fil A and call it side chick.
Speaker 1: So that's a good right. You know. I think Chick
Speaker 1: fil A is in tight with God because of how
Speaker 1: they close on Sundays. Because of that, this was God
Speaker 1: punishing me. A couple of mornings ago. I wake up
Speaker 1: groggy at six am. I need to go unlock the school.
Speaker 1: I'm there on the early shift on We're gonna work
Speaker 1: a couple of hours that morning, come home, change, and
Speaker 1: then go to the studios. So I am putting on
Speaker 1: wrong colored socks and forgetting things. And I do what
Speaker 1: I do at six am on a weekday. You know,
Speaker 1: you're not exactly with it. So I'm about five minutes late.
Speaker 1: I run down the stairs and I'm like, I need
Speaker 1: to grab something to eat because obviously I need some
Speaker 1: brain power right now. Run to the kitchen. You'll love
Speaker 1: this from Costco. We have all those egg white sandwiches.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, my, I'm not a breakfast guy because I
Speaker 1: only eat once the day. My wife loves those sandwiches,
Speaker 1: egg white sandwiches. She's yeah, they're really good. So I
Speaker 1: grab it out of the freezer. But I don't like
Speaker 1: eating those kind of breakfast sandwiches without Ketchup. I need
Speaker 1: at least one little Ketchup packet. So I go to
Speaker 1: the drawer where I've left some Ketchup packets and my Tinderoni.
Speaker 1: God bless her O c D. She organizes that drawer often,
Speaker 1: and she does not like condiments being in drawers, so
Speaker 1: she'll usually a throw them away. He put them in
Speaker 1: little zip block bags. Hey, and she's even taken pictures
Speaker 1: of this drawer after she's cleaned it and organized it
Speaker 1: and sent it to me while I'm at work, Like
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be impressed. She knows it. It It irritates me
Speaker 1: that I don't have the condiments I need. So in
Speaker 1: that drawer, ben there should have been one zip block
Speaker 1: bag that had some ketchup packets. Nope, they were gone.
Speaker 1: She probably tossed them. So there's only one little zip
Speaker 1: block bag in there, and it had Chick fil A sauces,
Speaker 1: not ketchup. But I need something, so I grabbed two
Speaker 1: of the packets out of there. It's half dark. I
Speaker 1: don't even know which two I grabbed, but I place
Speaker 1: them on top of my book and my cell phone
Speaker 1: and I walked down the stairs and out to the car.
Speaker 1: As I sit down in the car, my hands literally
Speaker 1: stick to the staring wheel. Oh no, And I am like,
Speaker 1: what is it? What the hell? What? And I looked
Speaker 1: down and on my shorts is that sweet Polynesian sauce
Speaker 1: from Chick fil A? Yeah? Sure, that's what it was
Speaker 1: on your short stack? How you close on my hands too?
Speaker 1: So Timderoni was home, so I don't think I you
Speaker 1: know that feeling when you're a groggy be running behind
Speaker 1: and see you have no time for some bullshit like this.
Speaker 1: So I quickly get the hand sanitizer, trying to get
Speaker 1: this sticky sauce off my hands. I'm pondering whether or
Speaker 1: not I should run back inside and switch out the shorts.
Speaker 1: I kind of glance at my shirt. I don't see
Speaker 1: any signs on my shirt. So I'm like, well, let
Speaker 1: me just get through this couple of hours. I need
Speaker 1: to get over there. So I get down to the school,
Speaker 1: unlock the campus, get to the classroom who lets the
Speaker 1: kids in early? Doing the walk of shame though to
Speaker 1: the classroom because as I'm walking, I'm finding dried up
Speaker 1: sauce on my arm. I looked down and it's on
Speaker 1: my Nike. I mean, how much freaking sauce was in
Speaker 1: this little packet? And then also I'm pissed because I'm like,
Speaker 1: how did this packet get opened up? Was it opened
Speaker 1: a little bit in the plastic bag in the drawer
Speaker 1: and it got put away like that? Uh, not very
Speaker 1: possible with all that O C D going on in
Speaker 1: the kitchen. I don't know what happened. Did I have
Speaker 1: fat fingers like you? And I accidentally squeezed it and
Speaker 1: squished it as I was walking? So I get I
Speaker 1: opened up the classroom, sit down, and I do a
Speaker 1: better scan now that I'm there, and I'm a little
Speaker 1: I'm trying to relax on the left side of my shirt.
Speaker 1: Ben It's like war stripe all down the side of
Speaker 1: my shirt. Now I see how it got to the
Speaker 1: shorts and to the Nike. My left Nike has sauce
Speaker 1: all over it. I got it all over me. I
Speaker 1: get a good morning text from my girl and it says,
Speaker 1: good morning. What the hell happened? I'm cleaning up a
Speaker 1: trail of sauce down the stairs. Oh man? So yeah,
Speaker 1: Chick fil A got me back, and they got me good.
Speaker 1: They are in tight with the one only uh and
Speaker 1: his son above. Yeah. So a couple of questions. First
Speaker 1: of all, did you did did it taste like the
Speaker 1: taste with the sauce was did you actually taste did
Speaker 1: it taste all right? Or or was it just just dreadful?
Speaker 1: I mean I threw the packet away as you did,
Speaker 1: you didn't even get to enjoy. And then and then
Speaker 1: did you figure out when you did in your head?
Speaker 1: Like what happened later on? Did you determine when the
Speaker 1: mistake was made? Like when did now? Remember I took
Speaker 1: two packets, so there was one that survived, but it
Speaker 1: happened to be that buffalo uh, And you can't put
Speaker 1: that on an egg white breakfast sandwich. That would be
Speaker 1: that would be a tough eat. Yeah, buffalo wing sauce
Speaker 1: on a breakfast. So I had to go, you know,
Speaker 1: sauceless for the for the breakfast sandwich. And then I
Speaker 1: thought about it. Yeah, I retraced my steps before the
Speaker 1: first kid arrives at the school. I read my book
Speaker 1: and I placed the two sauces on top of my book,
Speaker 1: the egg white sandwich on top of my book, and
Speaker 1: I carried it down the stairs like it was a tray.
Speaker 1: So in my mind, I'm thinking, there's no way I
Speaker 1: pressed down on the packet and exploded it. I still
Speaker 1: have no idea how this thing opened up. The amount
Speaker 1: of sauce that came out of this band, you would think,
Speaker 1: you would think I spilled five packets on myself. It
Speaker 1: was like the clown car of of condiment package right,
Speaker 1: just kept coming out and out and out. And I
Speaker 1: was like in like some kind of magic trick or
Speaker 1: something like that. Oh, it was like my friend Rusty
Speaker 1: Pena when I was a little kid. Him and his
Speaker 1: family and his uncle and his aunt and his little
Speaker 1: cousins and his nephew, and his mom and dad and
Speaker 1: sisters and brothers. They would all hop out of the
Speaker 1: same station wagon and I was like, Rusty, how did
Speaker 1: you guys all fit in there? And He's like, oh,
Speaker 1: we just all squished in there. I was like, damn, man,
Speaker 1: you have like four generations in one car. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: you've You've got to be able to move like a gymnast,
Speaker 1: right you. A contortionist is what you have to be
Speaker 1: able to getting cars like that. I who were working
Speaker 1: in San Diego, I would see that from time to
Speaker 1: time people driving around and I didn't. I haven't seen
Speaker 1: it much around here, but I'm sure it happens. But oh,
Speaker 1: and remember the far back seat faced out? Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: so my stepdad would tell us, if you it in
Speaker 1: the very back, you're on highway patrol. Watch. No. That
Speaker 1: was cool. I remember as a kid, I had relatives
Speaker 1: that had the station wagons with the seat facing out
Speaker 1: in the back, and I was thought, I was like
Speaker 1: the coolest thing in the world to sit back there.
Speaker 1: I was like, that's awesome, man, I love that. I
Speaker 1: didn't get to do it very often. I did it
Speaker 1: a couple of times, but I was like, man, I
Speaker 1: was like a boss, like sitting out there. They don't
Speaker 1: do that anymore, we do You think you could sell
Speaker 1: that if you made cars like those old school cars,
Speaker 1: but they were more fuel efficient. Do you think people
Speaker 1: were buying the minivan replaced the station wagon the minivans
Speaker 1: of the new station wagon, and the wagons were some
Speaker 1: ugly fucking cars. Man, Oh they were bad. I watched
Speaker 1: the documentary. I think I mentioned it on this podcast
Speaker 1: before you were part of the podcast, Danny, And there's
Speaker 1: these dudes that collect station wagons, like old school nineteen seventies,
Speaker 1: nineteen sixties style station wagons, and they're they've become collectible
Speaker 1: now crazy. Yeah, they collect the ones with the fake
Speaker 1: wood paneling. Yes, yes, yes they do. I'm telling you.
Speaker 1: I think I saw it on YouTube. Maybe it was
Speaker 1: on Netflix, but it was a few years ago. Just
Speaker 1: google it. There's a documentary about station wagons, and it
Speaker 1: was pretty interesting. It wasn't the greatest documentary I've ever seen,
Speaker 1: but it was pretty pretty cool, probably because of nostalgia,
Speaker 1: right because I'm, you know, around the same age, Danny,
Speaker 1: and we both remember the station wagon and all that
Speaker 1: from back back in the day. Alright, So moving on
Speaker 1: from that, turning the page, I've got a fleabag update.
Speaker 1: Now Bella. I don't talk about Bella Bella very much
Speaker 1: my dog. Yeah, Bella is the bark boss of the
Speaker 1: Mallard Mansion. She is the ship too of the house.
Speaker 1: And this week Bella was very upset with Now why
Speaker 1: was Bella upset? You asked, Is it true that Bella
Speaker 1: was annoyed because of an uninvited house guest? Yes, my
Speaker 1: wife decided that we needed to help the handyman. There's
Speaker 1: a guy that was a contractor who's been doing some
Speaker 1: work from time to time sporadically as we're still getting
Speaker 1: stuff done here at the Mallard Mansion. And so this
Speaker 1: guy is a good, good dude, and he works hard
Speaker 1: and all that stuff, and he's been helping us with
Speaker 1: some projects at the house. And so his car broke
Speaker 1: down and he was staying at somebody's house and he
Speaker 1: couldn't keep he has dog with him, and so he
Speaker 1: needed us to watch his dog. And of course, my
Speaker 1: my wife's like, okay, let's do it. And so we
Speaker 1: welcomed the dog Katana Uh to the to the homestead here. Now,
Speaker 1: she spent several nights at the Bread and Breakfast, the
Speaker 1: Bed and Breakfast this week, the Betty Bed and Breakfast.
Speaker 1: It's it's a puppy. It's a French bulldog. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes,
Speaker 1: I've never really dealt with French bulldogs. I've always been
Speaker 1: more of an English bulldog fan. But I gotta tell you,
Speaker 1: the French bulldogs growing on me a little bit. And
Speaker 1: but Bella was very annoyed that this dog was. It
Speaker 1: was hanging around, and Bella likes her space. She's a
Speaker 1: one dog kind of woman, and she was very bitchy
Speaker 1: with the other dog who just wanted to play. Because
Speaker 1: the dogs and the other dogs a puppy, the French
Speaker 1: bulldogs and puppy, and so the dog just want to play.
Speaker 1: And the fleabag rumble was on. It was on like
Speaker 1: Donkey Kong. Now I'm doing the show from here about
Speaker 1: half the time from the Mallard mansion. The other half
Speaker 1: of them in the studio giver take and I can't
Speaker 1: have dogs barking, you know, behind me. I can't. I
Speaker 1: can't do that. So unfortunately, the French bulldog had to
Speaker 1: to go outside, uh get to get away for a
Speaker 1: little bit. But it was it was pretty cool. This
Speaker 1: dog full of energy and you know, as a puppy
Speaker 1: plays fetch. This is like the greatest dog I've ever
Speaker 1: been around to play fetch. Every other dog I've had,
Speaker 1: they never actually returned the ball. Like Bella is so lazy.
Speaker 1: She's an old dog. She'll play fetch, she'll go get
Speaker 1: whatever you throw. She'll walk back and then it's the
Speaker 1: most frustrating thing, Danny. I don't know if you've ever
Speaker 1: had this with a dog or anything, but Bella will
Speaker 1: walk back with the two toy and then she'll drop
Speaker 1: it just far enough away you can't reach it. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: like she's she's figured out, Okay, you're sitting down, so
Speaker 1: if I dropped this like three and a half feet away,
Speaker 1: you won't be able to reach it. And she does
Speaker 1: it every time. But this other dog was was great
Speaker 1: and uh very what's the word bashful? These French bulldogs,
Speaker 1: if you yell at them, they mope around. They get
Speaker 1: really depressed, very sensitive. Yes, yes it was. It was interesting.
Speaker 1: I love the personalities of these different dogs and but
Speaker 1: but anyway, it was cool. And these French bulldogs are
Speaker 1: full of muscle, and it's not like the dog works
Speaker 1: out but just ripped, absolutely ripped naturally from the genetics,
Speaker 1: the doggy genetics. So that was that was an interesting.
Speaker 1: A couple of days there with a extra dog. How
Speaker 1: did Bella celebrate once she got the mansion back to herself. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think she pooped in the house and urinated in
Speaker 1: the house, saying, ha, this is my territory, you losers,
Speaker 1: clean up my ship right now, is what she said.
Speaker 1: We did. Anyway, Uh, the the commercial overload, Danny, Now,
Speaker 1: we have a recording session every week. We talked about
Speaker 1: this a little bit inside radio, and every week, once
Speaker 1: a week, usually it's only once a week. I will
Speaker 1: have to record a bunch of commercials, a bunch of
Speaker 1: spots we call them, and you hear them on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio, on my show and every once in a
Speaker 1: while on some other shows. Now, this past week we
Speaker 1: set a new record, a brand new record. Typically I
Speaker 1: will record anywhere from two to five commercials, usually like
Speaker 1: three to five commercials a week. But this was commercial
Speaker 1: overload I recorded. You might take case how many spots? Danny?
Speaker 1: I think I have a good idea because I had
Speaker 1: to go through a few of these with Covino and Rich.
Speaker 1: Did you have breeders cup? There was a Breeder's cup,
Speaker 1: There was that a Discover card, there was a discover Yeah,
Speaker 1: you have about eighteen tire rack. Yes, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it was. I think it was I forgot
Speaker 1: the action. I think it was around I think oh
Speaker 1: my goodness. Yeah yeah. On Wednesday night this past week,
Speaker 1: I didn't get home until nine pm, and it was
Speaker 1: because I sat in there putting together ten different commercials.
Speaker 1: And then as I was leaving, I was all proud
Speaker 1: of myself. An email came to my company inbox and
Speaker 1: it was nine more commercials that were due by Friday. Yeah, so,
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't I don't mind. I like doing
Speaker 1: the commercials, but the problem is it's it's such a
Speaker 1: fine line. They give you usually a lot of copy
Speaker 1: and they only give you a little time. It's like
Speaker 1: trying to to put twenty five pounds of you know
Speaker 1: what in a ten pound bag. But these were actually
Speaker 1: not that bad. I feel like they've done a better job.
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm I'm wrong on this, but they weren't. They
Speaker 1: weren't is loaded these commercials, so there was a little
Speaker 1: more wiggle room to read them because you've got to
Speaker 1: nail the spot. You have sixty seconds. You don't you
Speaker 1: can't do fifty eight, you can't do sixty one. It's
Speaker 1: got to be exact, and there's usually too much copy there,
Speaker 1: so you have to speed read and that's a pain
Speaker 1: in the behind. And as why I love the podcast
Speaker 1: commercials because there's no time on it. You can go
Speaker 1: as long as you want. Who cares the podcast commercial?
Speaker 1: So I go along and all that. Now, Covino and
Speaker 1: Enrich do they trade off doing the commercials or they
Speaker 1: both do the commercials? How's that work? They trade off?
Speaker 1: Covino goes first and then Rich finishes the spot. Oh
Speaker 1: so they share the spout case so they are both
Speaker 1: fun Like I thought one of them would do one
Speaker 1: spot and the other would do the other. Thought about
Speaker 1: doing that, but the beginning of the script said this
Speaker 1: is Covino Enrich and so they're like, oh, we better
Speaker 1: both jump on it. Okay, but but this and this
Speaker 1: is a great thing at Fox Sports Radio is doing
Speaker 1: very well. It's a testimonial to the listeners right that
Speaker 1: the advertisers are there. And yeah, thank god, otherwise we
Speaker 1: wouldn't have roofs over our heads exactly. We wouldn't be
Speaker 1: able to afford to go to Chick fil A and
Speaker 1: get sauce packets and spill them all over ourselves and
Speaker 1: all that stuff. So it's always cool when things are
Speaker 1: going well, and especially in this economy where I'm thinking, Danny,
Speaker 1: we're gonna be paying ten dollars a gallon eventually here
Speaker 1: in California, for I think the hell is going on
Speaker 1: with that. We got down to what six bucks, and
Speaker 1: we all started dancing in the streets, and then it
Speaker 1: slowly crept back up to seven over a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks period. And then now we are looking at some
Speaker 1: gas stations that are over seven dollars right now. Well
Speaker 1: that's the thing. When it goes up to ten dollars,
Speaker 1: will be like, oh, it's down to seven. We've made it.
Speaker 1: We've made a great deal. This is wonderful. So they're
Speaker 1: they're training us, they're indoctrinating us, the oil companies and
Speaker 1: the evil politicians in California. Last Friday, I went to
Speaker 1: a high school football game out here, and speaking of
Speaker 1: Chick fil A, they were selling Chick fil A chicken
Speaker 1: sandwich is at snack bar. That's yeah, that's cool, right,
Speaker 1: I'm like, I haven't eaten yet. I had a rush
Speaker 1: here to the game after work, so I got one.
Speaker 1: It was seven dollars now, normally at a snack bar,
Speaker 1: seven dollars for a sandwich, you'd be like, man, But
Speaker 1: I I thought to myself, that's not bad. That's like
Speaker 1: getting a gallon of gas. Dude. Oh my god. I
Speaker 1: got gas this week and I I think it was
Speaker 1: like eighty five dollars and it wasn't even an empty tank.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, you know, what are we doing here?
Speaker 1: You know what? It's just really you know necessary, I
Speaker 1: go over to Arizona and save money on gas, or
Speaker 1: got friends who live in Florida or Texas, and that's
Speaker 1: it's it's amazing. Once you cross the state line, gas
Speaker 1: goes down by three dollars a gallon. Yeah, it's insane. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And the politicians. I heard an interview this past week.
Speaker 1: They were talking about how left up the California politics are.
Speaker 1: And they have a special blend of gas that they
Speaker 1: are convinced makes the the air clean. They're convinced that's
Speaker 1: the reason the air is cleaner in California. But there's
Speaker 1: other people that say, no, it's really the pollution was
Speaker 1: mainly from the planes and things like that, and they
Speaker 1: and so there's this debate about whether it's on any
Speaker 1: difference at all. But California is the only state. The
Speaker 1: politicians here so fucked up. It's the only state that
Speaker 1: as is blended of gas. So all the other states
Speaker 1: use different blends of gas, and they can trade gas
Speaker 1: between states and so, but California's like, bend you over here.
Speaker 1: It's all right, moving on, We got the backscratch a
Speaker 1: real quick. We got shut out lest last week. These
Speaker 1: are people that take the time out on the Apple
Speaker 1: podcast page with the fifth hour to give us a
Speaker 1: review real quick, Danny, do you think we got shut
Speaker 1: out this week? How many reviews did we get? I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say we got one review that is correct. We
Speaker 1: got a one hitter. Our guy Adrian in the Mile
Speaker 1: High City. This guy is a super duper fan of
Speaker 1: this program and the the Overnight Show. Hard working guy,
