14
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,959
Speaker 1: the podcast, Danny, that it is the most frustrating thing

15
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 1: to me. Now you know that I'm a man of

16
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 1: my word. When I say I sucked garlic to get

17
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: over illness, I'm not lying, right. So this week I

18
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: was a little on the weather, so I went to

19
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: had somebody go to the store pick up some garlic

20
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 1: and and during the show, I'm in studio here and

21
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: I have this plate right and it's it's got a

22
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: little pieces of garlic, which is which is my medicine.

00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: And I'll let you in on a little inside radio things.

24
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 1: So the other night I was doing a read for

00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: tire rack dot com and my voice started wavering a

26
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:39,119
Speaker 1: little bit. Oh boy, so I went dev con one.

27
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,840

Speaker 1: sucking that garlic like a jolly Roger, And within five

29
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: minutes I got my voice back where I was able

Speaker 1: I don't know if anyone else had a good time,

61
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: but talking old radio stories, a bunch of people that

62
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: I've worked with years ago when I was like a kid,

63
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: I was like nineteen years old. These are some of

64
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: the people. That's how far back it goes. I'm out

65
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: of old fart and uh and you know some of

66
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: these guys are older dudes now, and I just love

67
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: talking shop. It was for me. It was like chicken

68
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: soup for the soul. Is that Looney Tunes guy would say?

69
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: But it was really awesome. It was slightly this orderly, rowdy, wicked,

70
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 1: all of that, and I spent a lot of my time.

71
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: I held court in the in the back there of

72
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: the Mallard mansion, behind the main house. There, I was

73
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: in the fire pit area and we were all telling

74
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 1: telling old shaggy dog stories about radio, which I love.

75
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 1: I love hearing the I'm a loser. I love these

76
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: stories and the crazy stuff that's happened on the air

77
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 1: off the air, and there's some wild stuff. Most of

78
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 1: it happened prior to like fifteen years ago, but it's

79
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 1: it's nuts and I actually almost overdosed because it was

80
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: a from a radio perspective, it was nerd tastic. And

81
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: one story I would like to share with the class.

82
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 1: I almost spit my beer out on this, Danny, and

83
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: I wonder, I wonder if you've heard this. It involves Now,

84
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: is it true that Larry King, the late Larry King,

85
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: icon of radio man, Larry King got taken to the

86
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: cleaners by a phony phone call that caused his entire

87
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: net work to go into pandemonium on his overnight show.

88
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: If you heard this story before, I've never heard about this.

89
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: It's like great. I never heard this one either. And

90
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: when I heard this, I was dying. I was like,

91
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 1: tell me again, tell me, I got the little kid,

92
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 1: you know, a little baby. I tell me again. So

93
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: this actually involves another big name in radio, although he's

94
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: pretty much retired at this point, Tom Likes, who had

95
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 1: a very successful career as a talk shows there's a

96
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: shock jock on FM radio and AM radio back in

97
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: the day. And so the legend is as was told

98
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 1: to me by somebody in the know, and I will

99
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: not I will I will cover up for the guilty. Um.

100
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: So he told told me the story. He said like

101
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:42,159
Speaker 1: it pulled the greatest phony phone call of all time.

102
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 1: Not it was not a Boba booy call or anything

103
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 1: like that. This is a hum dinger, humdinger of a

104
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 1: story that I would like to share with the class.

105
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: So so let's sake in the hot Tip time machine.

106
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: It's the early nineteen eighties, so it's a whole different world.

107
00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: And Larry King is the He is the king of

108
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: of overnight radio that you know I do overnight. He

109
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: was the king of overnight radio. And Tom Likeas, who

110
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: was a budding radio man and had his own career,

111
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: was not big name and radio at that time. Likeas

112
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: calls Larry King up. Now, Larry had his show on

113
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 1: the Mutual Broadcasting Systems alright, so that was the network,

114
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: and Likes had recorded the network tone that Mutual Broadcast

115
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 1: Systems used, and Likes calls into Larry King, Hi, Larry uh,

116
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: And they have a brief back and forth and Larry

117
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: was kind of slow on the uptake even back then,

118
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 1: and Tom Likes played he played the Mutual Broadcasting Systems

119
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: tone on his call. So what happened next? I'll let

120
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: you in on a little inside radio how this used

121
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: to work. He doesn't work this one anymore, so I

122
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: can say it. So that tone sent hundreds of automated

123
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: radio stage sans into an immediate commercial break in the

124
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: middle the middle, in the middle of Larry King show,

125
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 1: they go to commercial break. Larry was he was dumb struck.

126
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 1: He didn't know what to do, he didn't know what

127
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: had happened. It took him a couple of minutes to

128
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 1: realize what had happened. And uh, it was just the

129
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: the idea that God that I don't know. But I'm

130
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: told there is a clip that is on YouTube. I

131
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: tried to find it and I could not find it.

132
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: Now the person that told me the story swears that

133
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 1: there is a clip and as of a couple of

134
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: years ago, it was on YouTube. So I typed in

135
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 1: like us and Larry King, and I did not find

136
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: anything that matched up to that. But if anyone, I'm

137
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: talking to you as a listener, if you can find this, boy,

138
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: you'd be my hero for the day. If you could

139
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: send that to me. I want to watch this and

140
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: so I just and I I saw you light up,

141
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 1: Danny when you heard that story. Right, this is anybody

142
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: that's been doing what we do for a living. You

143
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: hear that story and it's just the greatest thing you've

144
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: ever heard. Just the the amount of chaos that in

145
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 1: that little cartoon bubble in my head, I imagine Larry

146
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: King and his producer and his engineer went through as

147
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: they tried to tried to figure out how to get

148
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: the affiliates back. Oh, it's it's just so great. It's

149
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: so good because when we were kids, there were a

150
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: lot of radio wars, like you got a lot of

151
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 1: mob pops, you had a lot of medium sized broadcasting groups.

152
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: It wasn't these huge conglomerates like there are nowadays in

153
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: any given city. You had all these little radio wars

154
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: going on. And I had a general manager in particular

155
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: who loved that kind of stuff, and so he was

156
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 1: always fucking with a competition. And I have stories for

157
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 1: days that came out of that market when I was

158
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: a kid. Some of the stories unbelievable, the great lengths

159
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 1: that our staff went to just to screw the other stations.

160
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 1: So when I hear a story like that, man, there's

161
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: so much appreciation. Yeah it is. I mean, we're just

162
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 1: a couple of old radio guys and so that I mean,

163
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: so I don't know that anybody like newer in the

164
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 1: business would appreciate it. It was a different time, but

165
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 1: I was involved in that. When I first got in

166
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 1: back in the nineties, we had we still had those

167
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: things going on and all that. So it was wild

168
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,439
Speaker 1: and crazy it's enough. When I heard that story, I

169
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: wanted to jump around, Danny, I really well, I did.

170
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 1: I wanted to. I was so happy. I was like,

171
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: tell me again, tell me again. It was crazy. Can

172
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: I do we have time for me to tell you

173
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 1: one story that we did against the competition? Yeah? Absolutely,

174
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 1: I would. I love I love old radio stories. Yeah.

175
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: So there were two big country stations in the market

176
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: that I was in as a kid, and I was

177
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,439
Speaker 1: coming from hip hop music. I didn't know much about

178
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 1: country music at the time, but in the same Troll

179
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: Valley of California, there's two music genres that were really loved,

180
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 1: hip hop and country, but the big stations were country.

181
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,079
Speaker 1: And at the time it was the big Garth Brooks

182
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 1: explosion and all of that. So you had a fifty

183
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: thousand watch station, which I was working on, and it

184
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: was like the more top forty aggressive version of the format.

185
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: And then you had the older, standard hit country station

186
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: that had been in the market for a long time

187
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: and they were called K Mix. K Mix. Staff from there,

188
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 1: including me, left to go to the more progressive station.

189
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: So now I'm on this new, more popping station. Me

190
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 1: and the staff are having fun, and that's where that

191
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 1: general manager was that I mentioned a little bit ago,

192
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: any time we could stick it to K Mix. This

193
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 1: guy loved it. I mean, this guy salivated over screw

194
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: in the competition. So I'm in there on an overnight

195
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: bend with a buddy of mine who also did overnights

196
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: at the station, and the two of us together came

197
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: up with a quick idea. There was a country artist

198
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: coming to the fair grounds there and his name was

199
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 1: Ricky Van Shelton. We devised a plan where I was

200
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: going to be the record company rep and he was

201
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: Ricky Van Shelton. He called the overnight DJ. We called

202
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 1: the overnight DJ at K Mix, and I researched. I

203
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,079
Speaker 1: found out the record label's name, and I made up

204
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: like a business name. We called, and I told the guy, Hi,

205
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 1: I'm so and so from Capitol Records or whatever it was.

206
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 1: And I'm like, you know, we were supposed to have

207
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: called earlier today so you could get liners from Mr

208
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: Ricky Van Shelton, but his schedule didn't cooperate. So if

209
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 1: it's okay with you, I know it's late, but he'd

210
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,679
Speaker 1: like to read these liners for you. And this weekend

211
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 1: DJ at K Mix fan was so excited. He's like,

212
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 1: oh my god, yeah, yeah, I'll record the liners. You know.

213
00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 1: He's like, hang on, hang on, let me get everything ready,

214
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,439
Speaker 1: and he's like, Okay, go ahead, and I'm like hang on.

215
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 1: So I hold hand the phone to my buddy and

216
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 1: he's like, Hey, this is Ricky Van Shelton. Now, Ben,

217
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 1: in these K Mix liners were a cat country their

218
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 1: K mix, So in the liners, he's like, this is

219
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: Ricky Van Shelton. You're listening to K Mix country. The

220
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:27,200
Speaker 1: cats me out. So in every liner he did, he

221
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: put some kind of cat reference in there because that

222
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 1: was our station. This DJ was so dumb and so

223
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 1: naive that he took these liners. I got back on

224
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: the phone to make it all professional and thanked them

225
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: on one of the monitors in our building. We tuned

226
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: into their station and we're just waiting, praying that he's

227
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 1: gonna play one of these liners. Stir enough, Ben, we hear, Hey,

228
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 1: this is Ricky Van Shelton and you're listening that's me

229
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 1: out and he goes into he plays that into a

230
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: Ricky Van Shelton song, and I swear to God, Ben,

231
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: we were dying, laughing, rolling on the floor of our

232
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: radio station. And when our general manager found out what

233
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: we did, he called us both in his office and

234
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: he gave both of us two dollar raises. Oh there

235
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,719
Speaker 1: you go, a little raise out of it, and you know, hey,

236
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: that doesn't sound like a lot, but when you're a

237
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: weekend DJ at a radio station, that that was a

238
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 1: big deal back then as a kid, and as we

239
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: know working in radio, to get a raise out of

240
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: anyone in radio is an act of God. God to

241
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: get a raise for the rest of our time at

242
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: that station. Uh, staff would walk around and say, hey, y'all,

243
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: I'm Ricky Van Shelton. That's outstanding, dumb dumb. I imagine

244
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,319
Speaker 1: how much trouble he got in. Oh yeah, Well, it's

245
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 1: just you know, you could probably still get away with

246
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: something like that today because nobody really knows what anyone

247
00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 1: sounds like outside of like the top two of people.

248
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: Everyone you don't really know for sure, and you assume

249
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: that no one's gonna punk you like that. So that's

250
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: that's great. Oh man, it's uh. I could go on

251
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: with those stories. You had quite the weekend last weekend,

252
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: My man, Dannygy, your first time you brought you popped

253
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 1: your cherry at a Las Vegas Raiders game, and oh

254
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 1: what a game it was. Yeah. Last season, I brought

255
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: the tender Roni to her very first football game, but

256
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 1: it was preseason. It was Rams Raiders, so we got

257
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: to check out so far. The game obviously didn't count.

258
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 1: Um overall, this was her very first NFL game that counted. Now.

259
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 1: I've seen so many Raider games because I was a

260
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: season ticket holder in Oakland, but this was my first

261
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: time seeing a Raiders game at their new home, the

262
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 1: Big Roomba. Um beautiful, man. I mean, we took a

263
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: tour last year of the stadium the last time we

264
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 1: visited Vegas, so we knew that it was a beautiful place,

265
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: but we didn't get to see a football game in

266
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 1: there yet. So we get there bend. Um. I'll talk

267
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 1: about the food a little later in this podcast. That

268
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 1: was a whole experience. Um. The wife, he was not

269
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 1: feeling that good because she was battling morning sickness quickly. Yeah,

270
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: that was something that we had to battle. But we

271
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: finally get to our seats, and no matter where you

272
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: sit in that stadium, even if you're up high, it's

273
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 1: not too steep and you have a perfect view of

274
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 1: the field, so you could see all the wide open

275
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 1: receivers that Derek Carr is missing. It's wonderful, wonderful view

276
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 1: it more. And I guess what sums it up the

277
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: best is there was this dude down the row from us,

278
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 1: and in the third and the fourth quarter we could

279
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 1: see him. He was drinking out of a water bottle.

280
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: But it was not water in the bottle. It was

281
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 1: clear it must have been vodka. We were guessing because

282
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: this dude was trashed be he did the pregame thing

283
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: and he showed up and he snuck something. Okay, I

284
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: got you sure you know. There wasn't a lot of

285
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 1: Raiders scoring in the second half. Of course, the whole

286
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 1: theme of the season for the Raiders has been jump

287
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 1: out to a big double digit lead and then fall

288
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 1: asleep after that and play keep away. And that looked

289
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: like that was gonna happen in that game, right It

290
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 1: really yeah, it really did. This guy is nodding off

291
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 1: Ben in the third and the fourth quarter, like he

292
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 1: literally has his mouth open catching flies and his eyes

293
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: are closed, and we both took pictures of him and

294
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 1: we're like, now, this is hilarious. This guy right here.

295
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: I spent a couple hundred bucks is take a nap.

296
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: Even up high, Ben, those tickets were selling for three

297
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 1: d bucks and we're talking mathematically alive, but only a

298
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: five percent chance to make it to the playoffs. Can

299
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: you imagine how much those secondary market tickets would be

300
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: if they were in the playoffs. Well yeah, but that's

301
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: a lot of Boston people, right, People go to Vegas.

302
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: You want to see your team a gamble in Vegas.

303
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: So that's There were some Patriots fans in the road

304
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: in front of us, and they were talking ship and

305
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 1: they started to get vocal. After the Patriots took the lead.

306
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 1: I turned and looked at my wife Roni, and I said,

307
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 1: you know what, the Raiders just need to shut them up.

308
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: We got a text from somebody who was watching at

309
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 1: home and they were like, oh, the announcers mentioned that

310
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:29,080
Speaker 1: the Patriots fans are starting to get vocal there, and

311
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: I looked at her and I said, well, we need

312
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 1: to shut them the hell up right now. And sure enough,

313
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 1: Derek Carr got his shipped together finally in that last

314
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 1: drive and led the team down the field, had that

315
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 1: crucial fourth down conversion, then the throw into the end zone.

316
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 1: It was a tie game. Suddenly that dude that was

317
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: knocked out on alcohol, he woke up and he's jumping

318
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 1: up and down, and we're like, yeah, we even got

319
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: this guy with us now. It was like, I don't

320
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,680
Speaker 1: know what you were thinking. I was thinking, the cars

321
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,640
Speaker 1: gonna screw this up on that drive and then then

322
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 1: I gonna score a touchdown. The way it's gone so

323
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 1: far this season, I did have a nervous fart in

324
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: me that was waiting to come out. There was a

325
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,440
Speaker 1: raider fans to my left. He was making prayer hands.

326
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: He literally was praying, please don't let this happen again.

327
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: Please don't let us go out like suckers again. And

328
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, maybe God is on our side today.

329
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: You know, the Patriots have the ball there, they are

330
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,120
Speaker 1: moving a little bit down the field, but there wasn't

331
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 1: enough time on the clock for them to you know,

332
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 1: get into field goal range. So when there was three

333
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: seconds left, I'm thinking they're gonna throw a hail Mary

334
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: here or neil. Those are the only two options, right

335
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 1: because it's a tie game. Yeah, yeah, well you think,

336
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 1: well you could throw you throw a hail Mary. I

337
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 1: hope you get a penalty on the defense, and then

338
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:54,439
Speaker 1: you get a free play and then you can kick

339
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 1: a field goal win the game. But what they did,

340
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 1: she's that's like everyone. I love Belichick, and I praised

341
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:04,879
Speaker 1: Belichick a lot, but then they got to be the

342
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: dumbest team in the in the NFL with that play,

343
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 1: which originally would have been fine. They just run the ball,

344
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,160
Speaker 1: they got a bunch of yards. Fine, didn't work out,

345
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 1: you know, try your luck in overtime. But Jacobe Meyers

346
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,199
Speaker 1: had other ideas, Danny, he had other ideas there in

347
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 1: Week fifteen. It's a cliche you hear people say, the

348
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 1: roller coaster of emotions. It was such a roller coaster ride.

349
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 1: It was so true in this case because when Stevenson

350
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 1: broke those couple of first initial tackles and he got

351
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,400
Speaker 1: down the sideline, in my head, I'm thinking, oh shit,

352
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,360
Speaker 1: oh ship, because I've seen the Raiders blow a lot

353
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 1: of leads this year and lose in dramatic fashion like

354
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 1: to your Rams. So I'm thinking he is gonna break

355
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,439
Speaker 1: away and run into the end zone for a game

356
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 1: winning six points. And then suddenly though defender finally had

357
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 1: a good angle on him, and that's what pitched the

358
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 1: ball backwards. So I was like, thank God, now though

359
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 1: I see that interception and it was like something out

360
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: of a movie. I could not believe what I was seeing, Like,

361
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: holy crap on a cracker, and I can't believe that

362
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: what's going on here? Oh my goodness, Ben um perfect

363
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 1: view of what happened because it was in our end

364
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 1: zone that he scored Chandler Jones. I didn't see the

365
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: stiff farm at first because it happened so fast. All

366
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:33,199
Speaker 1: I saw was Mac Jones getting trucked and the buddy

367
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: hop and in real time in person, it just looked

368
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 1: like Mac Jones got destroyed. He looked like that on

369
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: TV two he got when Chandler Jones was on his

370
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,959
Speaker 1: way to the end zone. I don't think I've jumped

371
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 1: this high since high school. He were jumping up and

372
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,119
Speaker 1: down like as if we were at a House of

373
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 1: Pain concert and they were performing their hit song jump

374
00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: Around in Unison. Thousands and thousands of Raider fans jumping

375
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: up and down like the world's largest moss fit. It

376
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,879
Speaker 1: was insanity. I've been to some dope games before. I

377
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,159
Speaker 1: was at the Raiders a f C Championship win. The

378
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: last time they went to the Super Bowl that was allowed.

379
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 1: Raucous game in Oakland, but the celebration did not compare

380
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:25,679
Speaker 1: to this. They kept replaying Chandler Jones spectacular play, and

381
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 1: every time they would replay it, the fans would jump

382
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: up and down again as if it happened live again.

383
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 1: Was having an orgasm. It's like an orgy raider or yes,

384
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: it was a ten who was a ten minute touchdown?

385
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 1: Celebration taste like a touchdown in your mouth. Have never

386
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 1: seen a finish like that in my life, and to

387
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,159
Speaker 1: have been there, I just I'm really really grateful that

388
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,919
Speaker 1: I was there to see it with my girl, so

389
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 1: see the smile on her face and to know that

390
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: that's gonna be her for first experience at an NFL

391
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 1: game that counted. It was pretty magical. Man. The whole

392
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: city was floating. The whole city was on cloud nine. Afterwards,

393
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: we were going from casino to casino because we had

394
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: to walk back to our hotel, and the entire city

395
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 1: Bend was full of smiles and laughter and share And

396
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: I told her, I said, you realize, right, we were

397
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 1: just a couple of minutes away from this being the

398
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 1: exact opposite of this. Well, you would have had mobs

399
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: of Bostonian's mass holes. That would have been losers and all.

400
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 1: There would have been fights. There would have been Raider

401
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 1: fans turning to the bottle too, you know, soak their

402
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: blues away. It would have been a bad bad scene

403
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 1: there had the Raiders blown that. But instead it was

404
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:50,400
Speaker 1: like a huge Vegas party. It felt like New Year's Eve. Well,

405
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 1: first of all, I'm happy for you. I lost, I

406
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: had the Patriots, so I was on the rong side

407
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: of that. But I'm happy for you and you got

408
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: to experience it, and no game will ever come close

409
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 1: to that, and so I hope you enjoyed it. And

410
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: uh and someday when the little mumpskin, the little seed

411
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,639
Speaker 1: pops out of the uh, the oven, there you can

412
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 1: say your first nfl ok. You don't remember because you

413
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 1: were just a bunch of God only knows what that

414
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 1: is at this point, but the cells or whatever right now, Yeah, peanut,

415
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: but that's that's pretty cool. So I'm happy for you.

416
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: And we will have the food review. Yeah. Yeah, you

417
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 1: gave me a homework assignment and you apparently you apparently

418
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 1: have crossed over on that homework assignment. So I wanted

419
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,919
Speaker 1: to mention this now and this Actually we're both kind

420
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 1: of tied into this one. And I gotta give Dr

421
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 1: Seuss credit. And he was right. When I was a

422
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 1: little boy, Danny and I my mom used to read

423
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 1: me Dr. Seuss books when I was a kid, and

424
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 1: he mentioned there's a great line. There's one line in

425
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 1: particular that I still remember more than any other Doctor

426
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 1: Seuss line, and it was, Oh, the places you go

427
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 1: and the people you'll see. And as I've gotten older

428
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 1: of taking that to heart and some of the people

429
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 1: that I've crossed in my life that have passed on,

430
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:03,760
Speaker 1: or some of the people that have gone on and

431
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 1: done some crazy things, and it's so true. Uh. And

432
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 1: it happened again this past week. At some point, I

433
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,639
Speaker 1: feel like Forrest Gump, you know, like Forrest Gump was

434
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: at every like big big thing there, but just kind

435
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:20,360
Speaker 1: of in the background, you know. Uh Gary Jones, Yeah, yeah, yeah,

436
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 1: exactly exactly. So when when I started out in radio

437
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: in l A read I've told the story before, but

438
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 1: my contemporaries, the people that wereround around my age giver

439
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 1: take that we're doing radio. We had k Rock, had

440
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:38,359
Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel, who was doing the morning sports on Kevin

441
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,360
Speaker 1: and Bean, and they had Adam Caroll who was part

442
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 1: of that show. But they were just like sidekicks on

443
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:48,640
Speaker 1: the morning show. Uh. The afternoon DJ had Star FM,

444
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:52,120
Speaker 1: that's what it was called. Seven was Ryan Seacrest. Those

445
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 1: guys have all done okay for themselves. I think they're

446
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 1: they're okay. Uh. And when I was a reporter before

447
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 1: I got into that, and I was a talk show ast,

448
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:02,400
Speaker 1: I was a reporter and I used to cover games

449
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: all the time. And Fox Sports Net the regional cable

450
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 1: channel Prime Ticket, they had a reporter named Laurence Sanchez

451
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: who I knew a little bit and I was around

452
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 1: her quite a bit when she was covering the games.

453
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 1: And she she's now stooping the Amazon guy, Jeff Bezos,

454
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,920
Speaker 1: who at one point the richest man in the world.

455
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 1: And she used to be married to a certain tight

456
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 1: end in the NFL. That's right, That's right, um, Tony

00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,360
Speaker 1: she's she's in, you know, she just enjoyed her life

459
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 1: as a young lady. She's she spread her wings or whatever. Anyway. So, um,

460
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 1: so this this week, we we both learned Danny not

Speaker 1: just me, but you as well are Former Fox Sports

462
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 1: radio colleague Jay Moore engaged to marry Genie Boss the Lakers,

463
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: the owner of the Lakers. They met when Jay was

464
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,679
Speaker 1: still doing his show on our net work. I know

Speaker 1: for a week. There you go. No, I have nothing

479
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 1: bad to say about Jay. I didn't really run into

480
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 1: him very much. I filled in for him. He actually

481
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:49,639
Speaker 1: called in sick at the last minute. I got to

482
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,120
Speaker 1: do a show with Ron art Test a K Metal

483
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 1: World peace, and I think Kirk Morrison. There were a

484
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: couple of guys, but I remember Metal World Piece and

485
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,879
Speaker 1: he gave me like his phone number, so I have

486
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 1: I have Ronard test phone number. Not that I really

487
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 1: called him or whatever. I don't really need about it,

488
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: but but it was good and I'm happy for him. Now, Danny,

489
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 1: you watch what Jaina's crew does. You can look a lot.

490
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:19,639
Speaker 1: That's the z Dog z Dog for sure, all right,

491
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: So I just wanted to mention that in passing. But

492
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: just another name to add the list here some crazy

493
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 1: and wild things. And the market research is in. The

494
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 1: market research is in the Danny g Let's go to

495
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,360
Speaker 1: the market research. What do you say? Yeah, last weekend

496
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 1: you gave me a homework assignment for the new Vegas

497
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:43,400
Speaker 1: Allegiant Stadium UM and you wanted to know the average

498
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 1: price of alcoholic beverages there, what kind of food options

499
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 1: were there? Let me grade it against so Far, which

500
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: probably isn't fair to so Far because they need to

501
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,439
Speaker 1: get their ship together there. When it comes to food,

502
00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 1: so Far is beautiful, especially on the outside and the

503
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:04,760
Speaker 1: whole Jurassic Park feel. I was blown away when I

504
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 1: visited so Far. The thing that didn't impress me was

505
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,880
Speaker 1: the sorry excuse for a slice of pizza I ate there,

506
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 1: the sorry excuse for nachos that I ordered at so

507
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: far it was like two dollars and it was garbage, horrible,

508
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 1: horrible food selections there. I don't know if it's improved

509
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,360
Speaker 1: since then, because that was at the start of two

510
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,199
Speaker 1: seasons ago. But you know, I didn't know what to

511
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 1: expect walking into Vegas Stadium. Now. My girl, as I mentioned,

512
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: she was battling what felt like morning sickness, even though

513
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 1: we were now in the middle of the day. We

514
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: got off our flight. She's not feeling well, but what

515
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 1: she has found out is she has some toast, some

516
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 1: water in her stomach will calm down. So we're both

517
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 1: hungry because we got right off the flight, went checked in,

518
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: put our bags in our room, got another uber, got

519
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 1: right to the state him as quick as we could,

520
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 1: huge line of cars getting in there. We got into

521
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 1: the stadium right in time, and in fact, when we

522
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 1: were trying to walk to our seats, Derek Carr is

523
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 1: up on the screen leading the Raiders in their first

524
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 1: drive to a field goal. But she wasn't feeling well,

525
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 1: and I was like, look, we don't need to walk

526
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 1: super fast. Uh your pray go. That's the priority. Let's

527
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: pace ourselves. And while we're doing that, I'm gonna do

528
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 1: market research. Anyways, Ben wants some pictures. Yeah, a bunch

529
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: of pictures here, Dinny. He went above and beyond the

530
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: call of duty. Yeah. Now, the food options in there

531
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 1: were amazing. This worked out really good during that field

532
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 1: goal drive because the first thing we found was Abuela's,

533
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: which was a taco cart inside the stadium with these

534
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 1: two Mexican ladies chopping up chicken and Carnie Asana. They

535
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 1: were making street tacos right there inside the stadium. It

536
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: was pretty good. I eat that. Yeah. My wife was like, Okay,

537
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 1: we gotta get a couple of these tacos. So that's

538
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 1: how we started. We're watching the big monitors. We find

539
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 1: somewhere to stand. We could hear the crowd. We could

540
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 1: kind of see through one of the sections through the

541
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 1: aisle to where the field is at the crowd roars.

542
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,560
Speaker 1: Then we see what happens on the monitor and we're

543
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 1: stuffing a chicken taco in our mouth. Something your best

544
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 1: life and how how much were the chicken tacos going for?

545
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 1: Let's see. So the chicken for two chicken tacos. It

546
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: was fourteen dollars al right, so that's like, what's that

547
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 1: that Mexican restaurant the valley here right near work where

548
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:43,479
Speaker 1: all these celebrities go. Oh, Cosa Vega, Cosa Vega. That's

549
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 1: about the same as Cossa Vega. Pretty much, not bad

550
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 1: for a stadium. And it was really good, really really good.

551
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 1: She ate one of the chicken tacos. She's like, all right,

552
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 1: I'm feeling better already. We get her a coke because

553
00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: you know, there's magical medicine inside Coca Cola. It settles

554
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 1: your tummy. We continue to walk and now I'm taking pictures.

555
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 1: I see brisket burritos. Oh yeah, it's stopped there, Danny,

556
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 1: because that's a good looking you know, I'm not a

557
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 1: big burrito guy, but that brisket burrito. And maybe it's

558
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 1: because I've been fasting, but that smoked brisket burrito, that

559
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 1: is a winner. That put on the board. We saw

560
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: a Raider fan with that on his plate, one of

561
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 1: those carrier trays, and we wanted it. We had just

562
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 1: eaten the tacos, though, so we're like, let's keep walking.

563
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 1: The smoked biscuit burrito before we move on smoked brisket, Chipotle,

564
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 1: Aoli cilantro coleslaw. I don't need that red rice. Mexican

565
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 1: cheese is. How's the spicy barbecue sauce and a side

566
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: of chips? So solid? Yeah, really good looking. Uh, it

567
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 1: smelled terrific. But we kept walking. We're like, let's see

568
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: what's further down. We had a little bit of a

569
00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,720
Speaker 1: walk to go to our section. Uh. Then we came

570
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 1: to a grill and they were grilling up. They were

571
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: also grilling up chicken, but they also had rice. It

572
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 1: almost looked like kind of like a little Mongolian set up,

573
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 1: and the smell it was like, you know, bugs bunny

574
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 1: being lifted off his feet. And my girl was like,

575
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: I want that, and I was like all right, So

576
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 1: I got in line and I got us to chicken

577
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 1: and rice bulls. The flavor. I don't know what they

578
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 1: marinated that chicken in, but holy ship, those bulls were good.

579
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 1: But now we're walking, stuffing our faces as we walk

580
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: with these bulls. And I took a couple more pictures.

581
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 1: There was a guy at a carving station. Oh yeah,

582
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,440
Speaker 1: I see the guy the guy's mad dogging. He's got

583
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 1: the the knife there he's holding posed for the picture.

584
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,960
Speaker 1: He's like pose. I was like, kick your ass is

585
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 1: what he's saying. He's got that look. I gotta kick

586
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 1: your ass. He's holding he's holding his big carving knife

587
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: and he's doing the prison pose with his arms folded. Uh.

588
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 1: Great picture to post it on Twitter after this podcast

589
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: goes up. But he he was carving turkey ham and

590
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 1: he was making sandwiches. Awesome, awesome options there. We were

591
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 1: really surprised. Then we came to a chicken tender stand.

592
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 1: Would have been all about that. They looked really good.

593
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,200
Speaker 1: Then we came to one last spot where we bought something.

594
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 1: After we passed a pizza place. They had vegan pizza,

595
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 1: which Alex tishert would have loved. Uh. They also had

596
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 1: you know, all the different kind of Sicilian h to

597
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 1: Chicago style pizza there. And then our last stop, we

598
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 1: got some pretzel bites. All those like pretty good. I

599
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 1: was just looking at those in this picture. You said,

600
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 1: really good. Uh, spicy, a spicy mustard dip, and then

601
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:50,600
Speaker 1: a great hot cheese dip and it was like that

602
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: fancy cheese nuts. We were excited. Man. We got to

603
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: our seats and we were happy until dinner. Man, very satisfied.

604
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 1: I think the most expensive thing was those chicken bulls.

605
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 1: I did leave like a two dollar tip, but I

606
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,320
Speaker 1: noticed on my credit card for two of those chicken

607
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 1: bulls it was thirty nine dollars. WHOA, So that was

608
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 1: so thirty seven dollars I guess before the tip. Yeah,

609
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the the cocktails here, Deluxe cocktail doubles

610
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 1: twenty eight dollars, Premium cocktail double twenty five dollars. You

611
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:31,400
Speaker 1: can get domestic canned beer at the Radar game fourteen bucks,

612
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:37,759
Speaker 1: Premium can beer sixteen h the the bottled water for

613
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 1: six dollars. That's uh, that's robbery, that's what that is. Alright,

614
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:47,839
Speaker 1: So we've got enough, Backscratcher. Let's do that real quickly

615
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 1: and we'll have pop goes to the culture. So backscratcher.

616
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:54,359
Speaker 1: Did we get any reviews, Danny this week? Every week

617
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,040
Speaker 1: we put the call out to the mallar militia, we

618
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 1: say we need your help here. Management loves checking out

619
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 1: the app podcast page for reviews, and they're all smiles

620
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 1: when we get some, and it makes them happy and

621
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 1: all that, and so we blatantly beg you to put

622
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 1: a review out there. And so this week, Danny, how

623
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 1: many reviews did we get? Zero, one or two we got?

624
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess that we got one. Well, Danny, you'll

625
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 1: be happy to know we got to this week a

651
00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 1: And I'm not that bright. I can figure it out.

652
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 1: You can figure it out, and it really does help

653
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,359
Speaker 1: us out, and that's a great gift you can give us.

654
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,399
Speaker 1: Doesn't cost any money, all right, doesn't cost any money,

655
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 1: Chris literally would take two minutes of your time. Alright,

656
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 1: we have time for a few pop goes the culture

657
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:35,839
Speaker 1: and that means our guy, Ohio, aw all right, thank

658
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 1: you Ohio. Aw So this comes out of Stanford. This

659
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 1: is these are pop culture stories that caught my attention

660
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:44,279
Speaker 1: that we didn't talk about on the radio. So from Stanford,

661
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 1: where they spent the past eighteen months, Danny putting together

662
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 1: a list of bad words the bad Word Initiative. Yes,

663
00:37:55,320 --> 00:38:01,280
Speaker 1: they are the Elimination of Harmful Language initiative. Hey, multi phase,

664
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 1: multi year project to address harmful language at Stanford. What

665
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: a bunch of assholes, I know, right, Oh my god,

666
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,799
Speaker 1: really this is what we're doing now, you schmucks. You you.

667
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,799
Speaker 1: I can't say what I would like to say you.

668
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: It's a past you fucking pieces of ship you there

669
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:28,880
Speaker 1: you go? All right, no, anyway, so I have there

670
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 1: gonna believe that one? All right? Anyway, Well that's the

671
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:35,399
Speaker 1: ultimate bad word right there. So I have somebody sent

672
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 1: me this, Danny. This is from the Stanford one of

673
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: their websites. Here it lists all of the words that

674
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 1: they have decided they need to cancel, the phrases among them. Danny,

675
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: you are no longer supposed to say addicted. You're supposed

676
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 1: to say hooked or devoted, stupid. You can't say basket case.

677
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 1: You have to stay nervous. No more blind study at Stanford.

678
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:06,799
Speaker 1: It's a man. This is like the injured list. I know,

679
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 1: it's so ridiculous. Instead of blind study, they want you

680
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 1: to say mass study. You can no longer use the

681
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:16,800
Speaker 1: word crazy. You have to use the word surprising or wild.

682
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,320
Speaker 1: Hang on, let me sit Indian style while I listen

683
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 1: to this. Crazy and insane have both been canceled. Lame

684
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,839
Speaker 1: is no longer allowed. You have to say boring or uncool.

685
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:30,360
Speaker 1: You can no longer say mentally ill. You have to

686
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:35,759
Speaker 1: say a person living with a mental health condition. Okay, yeah,

687
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 1: retard is out. That's gone. A person with a cognitant.

688
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 1: What if the party is jumping, though, can you say,

689
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 1: oh my god, it's retarded in't here? I don't think

690
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:48,239
Speaker 1: so not. According to Stanford, you can't say. You can

691
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 1: no longer use the phrase gray beard. That falls under

692
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: the ageism category. So you it's what if you have

693
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:56,840
Speaker 1: a gray beard? You're a gray beard. You instead are

694
00:39:56,840 --> 00:40:01,000
Speaker 1: supposed to say the person's name. You can use the

695
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:04,399
Speaker 1: term senile anymore, Danny. You have to say the person

696
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:12,239
Speaker 1: is suffering from senility, stupid. I know it is so ridiculous.

697
00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:15,360
Speaker 1: These are these are the top people in academia. You

698
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,759
Speaker 1: can no longer use berry the hatchet. You have to

699
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:22,400
Speaker 1: say call for peace or call a truce. Uh, geronimo.

700
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:26,200
Speaker 1: That word has been canceled. Cannot use it. You can

701
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:31,280
Speaker 1: only use it when discussing the historical figure Geronimo Wellman

702
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 1: on the totem pole, also canceled by You're supposed to

703
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 1: say lack of seniority or don't does not have power

704
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:48,200
Speaker 1: or prestige or oh my god. Uh instead of balls

705
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:52,239
Speaker 1: to the wall, you're supposed to say accelerate efforts. Accelerate

706
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 1: efforts is what you're supposed to say. Uh, this is

707
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 1: you can't say pow wow anymore. I use that term

708
00:40:57,760 --> 00:40:59,120
Speaker 1: from time to time. You have to say I get

709
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 1: together or meeting mm hmm, I can keep going. Spirit

710
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:07,280
Speaker 1: animals been canceled by Stanford. What's wrong with spirit animal?

711
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:11,239
Speaker 1: It's a good question, It says. The term refers to

712
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 1: an animal spirit that guides protects one to a journey,

713
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 1: So to equate it with an animal one likes it

714
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: to demean the significance of the term. Oh so please

715
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 1: say nondenominational animal, and I'm supposed to say favorite animal,

716
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:35,719
Speaker 1: animal I most admire, or what holy ship? What are

717
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:39,560
Speaker 1: we doing here? My god? I can go on and on.

718
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 1: This is like something you would see being printed by

719
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:47,839
Speaker 1: the Onion. Oh totally, totally. You can no longer say

720
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:52,520
Speaker 1: preferred pronouns you're just supposed to say pronouns. The word preferred.

721
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 1: According to Stanford, suggests that non binary gender identity is

722
00:41:56,600 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 1: a choice and a preference. So isn't it though, Well,

723
00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:07,959
Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm the arrows leaning towards yes on that one, Daddy.

724
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 1: That's where I sit here. I mean, I don't think

725
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:14,440
Speaker 1: it's controversial to say that now, courtis Stanford is, you're

726
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 1: no longer supposed to say fireman or fireman. You're supposed

727
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 1: to say firefighter. You can't say congressman or congresswoman. It's

728
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:26,799
Speaker 1: congress person or legislator. My my favorite though, is they've

729
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 1: now canceled the term gentleman, guys and ladies. Instead of that,

730
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 1: you're supposed to say everyone. So they've gotten rid of

731
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:41,600
Speaker 1: the male genitalia the female genitalia, and now it's just everyone.

732
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 1: I can't say maleman anymore. Can't say landlady anymore or landlord.

733
00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 1: I can't say property order or male person, postal carrier.

734
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:56,480
Speaker 1: Policeman has also been canceled. Police woman has been canceled. So,

735
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:58,719
Speaker 1: I mean, I can go on on. This thing goes

736
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 1: on for pages, Danny, this is, uh, how many pages

737
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:06,240
Speaker 1: are we looking at? Here. This is thirteen pages of words.

738
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:10,280
Speaker 1: How many months did they waste on this? Eighteen months

739
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 1: they spent on this, eighteen months dating. What a bunch

740
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 1: of lame losers there? I used lame for them. You

741
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 1: can no longer say rule of thumb. I use that

742
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 1: a lot. You have to use standard rule or general rule.

743
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,680
Speaker 1: And it says, although no written record exists today, that

744
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 1: this phrase is attributed to an old British law that

745
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 1: allowed men to beat their wives with sticks no wider

746
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:38,680
Speaker 1: than their thumb. An experiment, man, I want you to

747
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 1: do one entire monologue where you go by all of

748
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,360
Speaker 1: their rules. Oh you know, I'm gonna do that. And

749
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 1: my goal is to mix as many of these fucking

750
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,279
Speaker 1: words into my my language, my lexicon as I can.

751
00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 1: You can't say war room anymore. You're supposed to say

752
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 1: situation room. It's unnecessary use of violent language if you

753
00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:01,399
Speaker 1: use war room. Oh god, I can't say killing two

754
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:05,239
Speaker 1: birds with one stone. It says the expression this is

755
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 1: great normalizes violence against animals. I know. Whenever my mom

756
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 1: used to say that, I'd go right outside with a

757
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 1: bad gun and shoot a couple of birds. You can't

758
00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,960
Speaker 1: say cracked the whip. Danny, you're supposed to say, double down,

759
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:27,680
Speaker 1: work harder, unnecessary use of violent imagery, imagery, according to Stanford,

760
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: that paints the person being referred to as an authoritarian

761
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 1: or a presser oppressive rather so jeez, I mean, I

762
00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:40,399
Speaker 1: want to move on from this, but it's so it's

763
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 1: so crazy, and this kind of poison is now spreading

764
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 1: to the United States Marine Corps. Danny, what's going on

765
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:51,400
Speaker 1: with our United States Marines? They are urged the U S.

766
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:57,120
Speaker 1: Marines urged to stop calling instructors sir and ma'am. They're

767
00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:03,759
Speaker 1: supposed to be more gender inclusive. Wow. How long is

768
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 1: this nonsense going to continue? Right? At some point won't

769
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:09,879
Speaker 1: the adults say, hey, let's not that the crazy people. Yeah,

770
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 1: I use the word crazy. Determine what's going on with

771
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 1: our language here. You can no longer, I'm going back

772
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 1: to Stanford thing, you can no longer call a spade

773
00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 1: a spade. What's up with that? Let's see what it

774
00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:23,839
Speaker 1: says on this one. It says, although the term has

775
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 1: its origins in Greek literature, the negative connotations with the

776
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:31,200
Speaker 1: words spade means that the phrase should be used with

777
00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 1: caution or not at all. Oh, this is this is

778
00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 1: too good? Alright? What else do we have on popcos

779
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 1: the culture? You see that story out of Wisconsin. Multiple

780
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:51,799
Speaker 1: witnesses in different locations captured video they did not know

781
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:57,920
Speaker 1: each other of UFOs in rural Wisconsin. Night Sky and

782
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 1: I saw some of the clips on this and what's

783
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:03,080
Speaker 1: it look like? I mean, it looks like every other

784
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 1: UFO videos. I mean, it's so they're all kind of

785
00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 1: the same. But I I don't know what it was.

786
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:10,360
Speaker 1: It didn't look like anything that was man made. But

787
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,919
Speaker 1: they always they don't, uh, there's there's ship out there.

788
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,279
Speaker 1: I know. Why don't we ever see anything that's in

789
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:21,000
Speaker 1: a different shape, you know, like, oh my god, that

790
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:26,200
Speaker 1: one looks like a cruise ship. That would be speaking

791
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,959
Speaker 1: a cruise ships. The Titanic. Did you see the story

792
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:30,799
Speaker 1: as an old story? I had not heard about this.

793
00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 1: They were telling streaking news from Marcel's Twitter account and

794
00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:37,959
Speaker 1: that was actually the film Titanic. Have you heard this story?

795
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 1: I had not heard this one, but I'm not up

796
00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,120
Speaker 1: on this stuff. Maybe you heard it. So the legend

797
00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:47,200
Speaker 1: is that the Titanic film crew they had a chowder

798
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,800
Speaker 1: on on the set while they were filming the movie

799
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:54,160
Speaker 1: and somebody thought it would be funny Danny to lace

800
00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 1: the chowder with PCP. So this is on the icon

801
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:03,200
Speaker 1: James Cameron's Titanic. Twenty five years after they were telling

802
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:06,360
Speaker 1: these stories, there was a story written recently. Some some

803
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:12,000
Speaker 1: seafood chowder your chowder head, and somebody put angel dust

804
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 1: in the chowder, and the entire crew was, as you

805
00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 1: could imagine when you have PCP laden seafood. Uh. They

806
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:25,280
Speaker 1: were a little a little out there for for that

807
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:30,200
Speaker 1: that day, and they said the problem was that the seafood,

808
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 1: the chowder tasted so good that some members of the

809
00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:39,000
Speaker 1: Titanic crew, we're eating multiple bowls of the seafood. You know,

810
00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 1: if it wasn't seafood, I was gonna say, since it

811
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:45,799
Speaker 1: was free, you would have been in line for seconds. Yeah,

812
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:47,560
Speaker 1: if it was not seafood, I would have I would

813
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 1: have been lined up on that, Yeah, because it was free.

814
00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:54,799
Speaker 1: If it's free, it's for me. And one more, a

815
00:47:55,000 --> 00:48:00,160
Speaker 1: viral TikTok video has discovered and odd m M is

Speaker 1: of lyrics that you can come up with the music, right,

836
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:29,239

837
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like the beats. There's only

838
00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:34,480
Speaker 1: so many beats you can come up with a right well,

839
00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:37,560

840
00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:42,080
Speaker 1: up with. Yeah, but a lot of them are repurposed. Sure,
