He's the last remnants 4 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,480 Speaker 2: of the old Republic, a sol fashion of fairness. He 5 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,520 Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the 6 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:17,480 Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse. 7 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 3: Wow. 8 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,320 Speaker 2: The Clearinghouse of Hot takes break free for something special. 9 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 2: The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now. 10 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: In the air everywhere. The Fifth Hour with Me, Ben 11 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: Maller and Danny g Radio A Happy Sunday to you. 12 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: It's week twelve in the NFL got kicked off back 13 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: on Thursday night with the Texans taking down Josh Allen 14 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: and the Buffalo Bills. Are we now at the point, 15 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:53,279 Speaker 1: Danny where the Raiders are so bad? How bad are 16 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: they that you don't even want to talk about? The Raiders? 17 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: Can't they cannot lose to Shooter Sanders today? Right, you can't. 18 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: There's no way to gonna lose to shoot her Sanders 19 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: and in the Browns, right, I don't know. 20 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 4: Remember that one time where Baker Mayfield got signed by 21 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 4: your Rams. He came into the game and did what 22 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 4: he did. It seems like players have some of their 23 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 4: best games against the Raiders in the past decade. I 24 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,680 Speaker 4: don't know what to tell you. That O line is 25 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 4: freaking horrendous. We've talked about it all season. The Chargers 26 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 4: have the same problem. The Raiders do no depth at 27 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 4: O line, and guys that are coming in as the 28 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 4: backups like Meredith and Kappa, they man, they couldn't even 29 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 4: be third stringers on other teams. And these guys are 30 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 4: the backups for the Raiders O line. And then Gino Smith, 31 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 4: as we've talked about, he sucks when he's under pressure. 32 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,119 Speaker 4: He holds onto the ball too long. 33 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I maintain, well, it is fun to goof 34 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: on the offensive line. I look at the Texans as 35 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: a great example. Their offensive line horrific. Everyone said, my god, 36 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: the Texans have no chance, and they felt bad for CJ. Stroud, 37 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: And then Davis Mills goes in, who's not any good. 38 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 1: All he does is get rid of the ball, right, 39 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: He gets rid of the ball, and all of a sudden, 40 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: he had no sacks against Buffalo. And the Texans are 41 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: not great offensively, but they don't have to be. The 42 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: defense is pretty good and they're winning games with just 43 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: by getting rid of the ball faster. It's amazing how 44 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: much better your offensive line is now. Not to I 45 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,519 Speaker 1: don't want to open up any wounds, but you know 46 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: that means I'm going to open up some wounds, Danny. 47 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 1: When I say I don't want to open up any 48 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: wounds and then immediately say, but that is a dead giveaway. 49 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: That is a dead giveaway. I'm about to open up 50 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 1: wounds in my lifetime. And I believe I'm right on this. 51 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: The most embarrassing loss for the Raiders? How about the 52 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: last generation because I have I have a game picked 53 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: out that I believe is the most embarrassing loss for 54 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: the Raiders in the last twenty five years for you, 55 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: as I'm not a Raider fan obviously, Danny. And we'll 56 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: get to the mail bag, I promised, But what do 57 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: you think your most embarrassing loss last twenty five years 58 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: with the Raiders? 59 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 4: Probably if you remember back to that Monday night football 60 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 4: game where Derek Carr and the Raiders were being touted 61 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 4: as Super Bowl contenders because Carr had come off of 62 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 4: a pretty decent year at that time, the Raiders had 63 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 4: one of the best O lines in all of football. 64 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 4: So I'll never forget it was a primetime game. The 65 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 4: announcers were all over the Raiders junk juggling their ball, saying, 66 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 4: this is a super Bowl caliber team, and it was 67 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 4: during the whole Was it Black Lives Matter? I think 68 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 4: it was because that's when the O line and Derek Carr, 69 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 4: do you remember that where he didn't have their back? 70 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 4: That's what they thought, and so they didn't have his 71 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 4: back in the game, and the rumors were that they 72 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 4: allowed him to get murdered in that game. I think 73 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 4: he was sacked like seven times. Do you remember that well? 74 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: I remember vaguely. I don't know if it was it 75 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: because of Black Lives Matter. I don't remember what it was, 76 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: because I do remember they they turned on Derek Carr 77 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: and there were some stories out that, yeah, issues, I 78 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: remember that part of it. I definitely remember that. 79 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 4: That to me that I remember being so embarrassed because 80 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:25,799 Speaker 4: they were being so highly praised and then they shit 81 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 4: Sandwich live on television and that was super embarrassing. 82 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: All right. So, as a non Raider fan, I believe 83 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,119 Speaker 1: the most embarrassing loss for the Raiders in the last 84 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 1: twenty five years was during the twenty twenty two season. 85 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: The Raiders played was Week ten and they played the 86 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts and that was the game coached by Jeff Saturday. 87 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: That was the Oh yeah, that was the only win 88 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: he ever got as a head coach. He went on 89 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: one in seven or something like that. And the Colts 90 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 1: I had lost ten. They lost ten of the last 91 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: eleven games. The only win they got was against the 92 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: Raiders and the game was in Vegas, and that was it. 93 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 1: That was the only game Jeff Saturday one as an 94 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: NFL head coach. That was against the Raiders, and that 95 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: was what's his name, the guy, the Patriot guy. 96 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was against McDaniels. 97 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: Mc daniels. Yeah, yeah, that's say. 98 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 4: He should have been fired right there on the spot. 99 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 4: And I feel like, man, I feel like Pete Carroll 100 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,559 Speaker 4: and his son should have been fired on the spot 101 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 4: last week. 102 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. I wouldn't have a problem with that. I know, 103 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: I like Pete, but it's not going very well. Put 104 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 1: me in the hof at all. Well, I'll be at 105 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 1: the Ram game tonight. By the way, Rams and Bucks. 106 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: It's so funny. 107 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 4: I'm jealous, man, I'm jealous. This Ram season has to 108 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 4: surprise you a little bit. 109 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 1: It does. I did not expect Stafford to be healthy. 110 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: Put the wammy on him. We'll get hurt tonight. But 111 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: I thought he'd be out by now. He's been healthy. 112 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: He's playing as well as anyone in the NFL. He's 113 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: not turning the ball over, something he's always done. Uh so, 114 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: it's it's been it's been great. 115 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, you guys actually know how to use Davante Adams. 116 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 4: I'm super jealous. 117 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: Yeah.

I'm six four. Yeah, 130 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: I asked the question, I answered a question, or we 131 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: were talking about this. I talked about last weekend about 132 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: golf at Camball. I think it came up with the mailbag, 133 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: which is probably why Paul sending this in. I forget 134 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: we do daily podcasts, but I was like, I should 135 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: pick up golf. And I gave away my golf clubs 136 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: years ago, and I want to get golf clubs, but 137 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: they're very expensive, and I want to get like long 138 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: golf clubs because I'm a tall guy, he says. Paul 139 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: from Thomasville, Georgia says, I suggest you see a golf 140 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: pro at one of the clubs close to you. Sometimes 141 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: they have used clubs which they can modify to your specifications. 142 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: If not, they can point you in the right direction. 143 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: I previously contacted you about getting the Pope on the 144 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: Fifth Hour podcast. He says, I'm sure. I'm sure Mike 145 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: North has tipped a few with the Pope over the years. 146 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: Maybe he can help secure him for your show. Good 147 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: luck on the golf club shirts. That's Paul from Thomasville, Georgia. Well, 148 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: we love Mike North. He's a Hall of Famer and 149 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: he is the most Chicago Chicago guy I've ever met. Oh, 150 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: there's no question, Mike North is a just an absolute 151 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,559 Speaker 1: bench loved the guy. He was a hot dog vendor 152 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: in Chicago. He became the most powerful sports talk radio 153 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: host in Chicago, made the most money of anyone in 154 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: sports radio in the United States for a couple of years. 155 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: Love Mike North, just down the earth, the kind of 156 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: guy you just want to have beers with and talk 157 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: about life. And then I think Philadelphia. I think Tony Bruno. 158 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: I think that's the most to me. Tony's the most 159 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 1: authentic South Philly guy you could possibly have, and that 160 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: my life has crossed paths with those guys is just great. 161 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,719 Speaker 1: I love that. And the Pope. I don't know if 162 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: the Pope and Mike North have hung out. I'm pretty 163 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 1: sure though, that the man that became the Pope, and 164 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: I've talked about this before, was listening to the Overnight 165 00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: show we were on in Chicago when the White Sox 166 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: won the World Series. We were on the Overnight at 167 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: that time, and the show was being syndicated into Chicago. 168 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 1: So I'm imagining in my head the man that became 169 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 1: the Pope was at the World Series and then driving 170 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: home after the game, he flipped on the sports radio 171 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 1: and heard the show that it's probably bull crap, Danny, 172 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: but I'm just going with it. And as far as 173 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: the golf clubs. 174 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 3: It's probably like Vin Scully turned classical music on. 175 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, I famously asked Vin. I thought Vin listened 176 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: to me doing Dodger talk. 177 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 3: No he did not, did not. 178 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: Next up on the mailbag, Scott from Florida writes and says, hey, 179 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 1: Ben and Danny, g I just read a news article 180 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: that said the Simpsons killed some cast member off after 181 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: thirty five years, and fans are very angry. Can we 182 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: all agree at this stage that for the last fifteen 183 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: years fifteen years, the Simpsons are the Rby's of television? 184 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 1: He says, I literally, I literally don't know anybody that 185 00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:00,079 Speaker 1: still watches the show, yet it somehow stays on the 186 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: Are there any theories about how and why is this 187 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: the bot algorithm? Ben? That's from Scott in Florida, Ur, Danny, 188 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: last time you watched the Simpsons. 189 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 3: Man twelve thirteen years? Probably? 190 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, I bet it's been longer for me. It's been 191 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: longer for me. They are entering their thirty seventh season. 192 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 3: That it is seve insanity. 193 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, and they've been renewed all that, they're guaranteed to 194 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: be on through forty forty years. They're contractually obligated for 195 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: forty years. So I looked up the ratings here Scott 196 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 1: and Danny g and Scott is spot on on the ratings. 197 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: According to the Nielsen Ratings, which measures the percentage of 198 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: US TV households watching total viewership, total viewership has hovered 199 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: in the zero point one to zero point two range 200 00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: in all key demographics. 201 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 3: Me, what the hell is? 202 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 4: It just like grandfathered in for the network, and so 203 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 4: it's like part of the identity, so they feel like 204 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 4: they have to carry it. 205 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,199 Speaker 1: It says adults eighteen to fourteen I total viewers often 206 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: under two million. Despite being on across the entire United States, 207 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: the series has maintained a strong online presence. It ranks 208 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: the top two hundred and fifty shows for thirty day 209 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: Digital Buzz. That was as of earlier this month.

I remember Rember the 239 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: media coverage about the Menendez brothers. It was a huge story. 240 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: They have money, so much money. It was a wealthy 241 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: to do family and all that, and I was like, well, 242 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 1: it was wild and I don't remember much else. I 243 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: remember that there was that basketball card of Mark Jackson. 244 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 3: That's what I was going to bring up. I actually 245 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:20,079 Speaker 3: owned that card. 246 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, they were at a Clipper game, right. 247 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 4: I'm going to pass that down on the coah then 248 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 4: and then he'll be asking the gen z s what 249 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 4: is this? 250 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, why why do I have I don't understand. 251 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, and then they'll have to pass their grandparents about it. 252 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's it. I mean, it was a wild time. 253 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 1: Menendez were at the games. Every once in a while, 254 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,599 Speaker 1: Donald Trump would show up. He mostly stayed on the 255 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 1: East Coast, but every once in a while the Knicks 256 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: would be out or he'd be in LA for something, 257 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: he'd show up. It was a wild time back back 258 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: in the day. But the Minette is they were one 259 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 1: of them was supposed to get out right and didn't 260 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: get out?

Yeah, 262 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 4: that didn't work out as far as I know. 263 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,079 Speaker 1: Yeah, people assumed they were gonna get out and they didn't. 264 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: You know what happens when you assume. Next up Lucky 265 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: Tony on the mail bag, he writes, and he says, hey, 266 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: Bend and Danny g Danny, do you sport any teams 267 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: other than the Raiders, Dodgers and Lakers?

Awesome back then to watch baseball there, 282 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 4: and then when we would return back to LA we'd 283 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 4: get to watch baseball at Dodger Stadium. That's probably the 284 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 4: only other team I've ever had a cap of when 285 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 4: I was a kid was the A's. 286 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, no, I remember you telling stories about Sandy 287 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: A's and Lucky Tony.

Watch it right now, watch it later. 302 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: Watch Benny Versus the Penny. You watch it before the games. 303 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: No more of these international games this year in the NFL. 304 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: But if you watch it before, you can get all 305 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: my picks. And if you want to watch it after, 306 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: you can see how I did. So check it out, 307 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: and he points out the penny is going away, he said, 308 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: But the United States minted three point two billion pennies, 309 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 1: he said, We minted three point two billion pennies in 310 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. And it's not like they wear out 311 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: like paper currency or we dump them in the ocean 312 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: at the end of the year, and so those pennies 313 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: should be around for a long time. That's Gary in Pittsburgh. 314 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: As far as the phrase a penny for your thoughts, Gary, 315 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: believe it or not, that phrase is one of the 316 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: oldest in use in terms of common use in the world. 317 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: The phrase penny for your thoughts first appeared in print 318 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 1: in the fifteen hundreds someone named Sir Thomas Moore, and 319 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: was used to invite someone lost in thought to share 320 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: what was on their mind. The earliest recorded use was 321 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 1: in a book called Four Last Things from fifteen twenty two, 322 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:24,400 Speaker 1: and it was written a penny for your thought, essentially 323 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 1: encouraging someone to rejoin a conversation when they seemed distracted 324 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 1: and whatnot. That means that a penny for your thought 325 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: is one of the oldest idioms used, which is not 326 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 1: biblical or a proverb, and it still dates back to 327 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 1: the Tutor era, which seems like a long time ago. 328 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:51,959 Speaker 1: In the sixteenth century, a penny had real value, right, No, 329 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: nothing symbolic or anything like that. It was a genuine 330 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 1: thing that meant something. Obviously, now not so much. 331 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 3: You could get candy for your penny.

And I had said, I've said this 342 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: a few times over the years, but when my dad 343 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 1: checked out, I was like, Dad, couldn't you have collected quarters? 344 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: That would have been much better the quarters. But he 345 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 1: loved pennies just for some reason. That was his thing. 346 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 1: And he kept lots and lots of pennies. And there's 347 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 1: nothing more maddening when my dad passed and we took 348 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: the pennies to turn them in and stuff and get money. 349 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,199 Speaker 1: And then you bring in boxes of pennies and you 350 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: end up with like five dollars, you know, and you're 351 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 1: like eight bucks.

For example, being quoted 354 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 1: a price for cell service and four new phones, having 355 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 1: to buy two extra phones because of employee error, screwing 356 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: up trade ins, and having to complain to the FCC 357 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: to finally fix your phone bill after being overcharged almost 358 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: a grand after four months. Keep in mind having to 359 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,640 Speaker 1: wait a month for the government to reopen in order 360 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: to file an FCC complaint. No, no, not that I'm bitter, 361 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: says says Alf. Off the top of my head. I'd 362 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 1: say the experience which pops in my head right now 363 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:57,360 Speaker 1: is I got a lemon the Malamobile. This goes back 364 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: probably ten years or so of that got in a car. 365 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: Are really liked it, and the thing just died and 366 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: we took it to the repair shop. They said, okay, 367 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: we'll fix it. We'll be able to fix it, no problem. 368 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,639 Speaker 1: And then a week went by and we checked in 369 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 1: and said, well, we'll still working on it. Don't worry, 370 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: we're going to get it fixed up and worry about 371 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: We said, okay, good, that's good. And then we went 372 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: another week and we called in and said, well we're 373 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: still we're having a few issues, but we think we're 374 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: going to be able to get it fixed. Give us 375 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 1: another couple days. We'll get back to it, no problem. 376 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: So then another week went by. We called up the 377 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 1: repair shop. We said, okay, it's been been a while, 378 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: can we get the car back. We said, well, you know, 379 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 1: we we haven't been able to solve what was wrong 380 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: with it, and so we reached out the corporate but 381 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: we think will be okay, give us another week Okay, sure, 382 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,439 Speaker 1: we'll give you another week. So then we waited another week. 383 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 1: Then we contacted them again and they said, well, I 384 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 1: don't think we can fix it. We haven't been able 385 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 1: to fix it, so you're eligible to turn the car 386 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 1: in as a lemon And we were like okay. And 387 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 1: so we were okay, lemon. You know how much money 388 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 1: we lost Danny on that car and we hardly owned it. 389 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,199 Speaker 1: It was we barely had the freaking thing. So the 390 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 1: lemon law, which I think is a federal I know 391 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 1: it's in California, but the lemon law, you think, oh great, 392 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 1: get your money back, the depreciation of that car, and 393 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:21,880 Speaker 1: having to deal with the legal jump jump jumpy jump, 394 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: the hula hoops. 395 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 4: I mean it was no, no, no, It's like when 396 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 4: a car gets quote unquote totaled, the insurance company gives 397 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 4: you half the value. 398 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was that exactly exactly. You said it better 399 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: than me, and it was like, okay, So we we 400 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 1: didn't do anything wrong on our end. We just used 401 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: the car normally and we lost thousands of dollars, Like, 402 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 1: why how is that fair? Because I drove the car 403 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: off the lot. It's like, was there is there like 404 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 1: a magic line of a point of demarcation where all 405 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 1: of a sudden the car loses eight thousand dollars in value. 406 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. 407 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 4: That's the That's the number one reason why people hate 408 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 4: buying cars. 409 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 1: I will never buy a new car again. I will 410 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: buy a pre owned, certified car. And that's that's it. 411 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:14,640 Speaker 1: I will never Now I say never, unless I get 412 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 1: a contract like a Colin Cowhard, then I would be 413 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: willing to do it. Then I would be willing to 414 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: do it. Other than that, forget about it. What about you, Dan, 415 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: any bad customer service you want to share with the class? 416 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,120 Speaker 4: I mean, I think about car lots. Also, when we 417 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 4: were looking for bar for Brenda a few years back, 418 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 4: we went to let's say, I don't want to say 419 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 4: the name of it, I'll change the letters around. 420 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 3: It was a markax a lot. 421 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:46,479 Speaker 4: In Oxnard, California, and it was right after COVID, so 422 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 4: everybody was still wearing masks. 423 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 3: Things were still funny out there. 424 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 4: Never forget we go and they pawn us off to 425 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 4: some girl who was brand new at doing car sales. 426 00:22:58,240 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 3: She was horrible. 427 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 4: She had sitting around forever.

But she never even followed 435 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 4: up with us. It was the worst customer service we 436 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 4: ever had in our entire life. 437 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 3: It was so bad. It was almost like they didn't 438 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 3: want to take our money. 439 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: Well they at least there was no Hagwin, you know, 440 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 1: at least there were Yeah. 441 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, Normally it's the other way around. At a car dealership, 442 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,919 Speaker 4: you want to get away from the piranhas. Yeah. With 443 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 4: that experience, it was like they were so inept they 444 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 4: didn't know how to take our money. 445 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: Wow, that is that's unfortunate.

Often signals emotional overload. 451 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 1: When people feel mentally exhausted, simple task like cleaning seem monumental. 452 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,639 Speaker 1: This behavior is not laziness. It's the brain protecting itself 453 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 1: from stress. According to Kwang, research has shown that during 454 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: overwhelming times, even small chores drain mental energy. Ignoring dishes 455 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,959 Speaker 1: can be a way to preserve emotional resources. It's the 456 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 1: mind's way of saying I need a break, and Quang 457 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 1: says taking a step back from chores helps conserve energy 458 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 1: for emotional healing and recovery. He says, PS, I know 459 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: you are a cheating ass holes take guy on dishwashers 460 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: in your make Housekeeping Olympics Great Again monologue that you 461 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: did last week. However, don't sleep on the dishwasher stacking event. 462 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: Quang says, who or what country can best stack an 463 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: assortment of pots, pans, dishes and utensils. There's money in 464 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: dishwasher advertising, says Quang. If you can get sponsorship from 465 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,639 Speaker 1: Samsung or one of the companies that makes dishwashers, I'm 466 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 1: sure we could work the dishwasher angle. I just believe 467 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 1: Danny and I'm a purist when it comes to the 468 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 1: housekeeping Olympic games, and as a purist, I just think 469 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: you should wash dishes by hand. And I think once 470 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: you it's once you put the dishwasher into it, it 471 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 1: just cheapens it. It's like saying Barry Bonds as the 472 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: all time home run king. Well, he hit a lot 473 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: of home runs, but he had he had some help, 474 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,879 Speaker 1: you know. On Washing dishes with a dishwasher is a 475 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: competitive advantage. It's the steroids of the dishwashing world. 476 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 3: You should never let them pile up. We wash our 477 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 3: dishes as we go. 478 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 1: Yeah. I am the same way. I cannot go to 479 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: bed with a sink full of dishes. It drives me bananas. 480 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: I go bonkers. I'm like, no, I want to that's 481 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: something I want to do. I like to do it 482 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 1: right before I go to bed. I usually do it 483 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: in the morning because I work. I sleep during the day, 484 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:22,439 Speaker 1: and I'll do it during the morning. And I was like, 485 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: that's great. By the time I wake up, everything's done. 486 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 1: I washed the dishes, I put them in the dish washer, 487 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 1: and that's that and we're good to go. We had 488 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: a full empty sinks, put the dishes away. We're on 489 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: our way.

There's 499 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: two things I don't do, and Terry in England knows this. 500 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,439 Speaker 1: I don't do lists, and I don't do shout outs. 501 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: I'll do shout outs on Cameo, I will not do 502 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: them on the podcast of the radio show. And I 503 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: don't do list. I've never done list at all. 504 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 3: Does Cameo take bags of pennies? 505 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: Sure? Sure? Why not? I should raise my raid on 506 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,439 Speaker 1: Cameo too. By the way, what am I doing the 507 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: greatest deal on Cameo right there? Anyway? Kevin says, I 508 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 1: thought i'd look into the fridge because it was National 509 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 1: Clean Out your Refrigerator Day last week, and there are 510 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:40,640 Speaker 1: fifteen total items. It's pretty empty. He says, However, I'm 511 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: not a chef like you two guys are. How much 512 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 1: of your fridge will you use and how much will 513 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 1: you end up tossing out? All right, So first of all, Kevin, 514 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: we have a lot of things in the fridge, mostly 515 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 1: eat at the house. I cook. I talked about the 516 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: chicken shwarma that I make Friday for the whole week. 517 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: I do that on Saturday, but then on the weekends 518 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: on Friday and Saturday will make some some of the 519 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: unhealthy foods that I like at the house. So it's 520 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: always full of stuff. If it was up to me, 521 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: I would very rarely throw anything out. My wife goes 522 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 1: through there once every two weeks and throws out there's 523 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: so much food that we throw out that could be eaten. 524 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,400 Speaker 1: But she looks at some date, which is I think 525 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: you'd agree. We've talked about this. Those used by dates 526 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 1: are a rough estimate. They're not they're not exactly right. 527 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: My wife uses really a suggestion exactly. My wife uses 528 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: them as the gospel, and she'll immediately, out of an 529 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: abundance of caution, she'll throw food away, and I'll be like, 530 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: the food's still fine, I just ate it yesterday. Well, no, 531 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 1: it shows be like the date's not right. Well, I 532 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: know the date's not right, but do the old There's 533 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 1: two tests, you do the eyeball test and the smell test. 534 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: And if you do the eyeball test and the smell 535 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: test and looks fine, it smells fine, it's fine. It's fine. 536 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 1: That's it. And you can do the field test when 537 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: you touch it and kind of like if it's cheese 538 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 1: and it's soft still and it's no, you can't see 539 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 1: any signs of mold and it smells fine, it's good. 540 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 1: Now if you see something that looks a little moldy 541 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 1: or it's it's rock hard. Because the cheese is no 542 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 1: longer what it needs to be, you throw it away. 543 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: And we have so much stuff on our fridge, keV Like, 544 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: the refrigerator looks great. However, if it's overfilled with stuff, 545 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: it starts beeping. So it beeps a lot because there's 546 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 1: so much food in there. 547 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 4: What about you, Danny, Right, that's Brenda's department. She is 548 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 4: pretty psycho about cleaning the shelves in there and making 549 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 4: sure everything is fresh. In the freezer, it's mostly stuff 550 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 4: from Costco. In the refrigerator part, it is mostly stuff 551 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 4: from Trader Joe's. She's still OCD with the refrigerator. She 552 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 4: turns everything so that the labels are facing towards you 553 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 4: when you open the fridge. 554 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: Oh, that's nice. We don't do that. 555 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 3: We I don't know if nice is the word. 556 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: Well, if you need to look at something like that. 557 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 3: So so her, you're like a like, I know, it's 558 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 3: a thing of jelly. I don't need the label facing 559 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:13,959 Speaker 3: my face. 560 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 1: So Brenda makes it like a sitcom, like a sitcom refrigerator, 561 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: you know how you can see? 562 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, she does. 563 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, the nineties, everything would be perfect. And because it 564 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: was product placements, so they'd have Oh, look, I wonder 565 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: I wonder what a kind of jelly that is? Oh 566 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: it's look at smucker Smucker's jelly because they have the logo. 567 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: It's like so stupid. 568 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 4: It teas her about this, you know, probably once a month. 569 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 4: I'm going to use that on her. 570 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 3: Next time. 571 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 4: She's turning labels around and going to be like, what 572 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 4: what is this? Seinfeld? 573 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 1: Or it's like full house, look at that unbelievable. Oh 574 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: my friends, you know Chip from Anchorage, Alaska? How about 575 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: that this podcast blowing up in Alaska? He says Ben 576 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: I don't live in this part of Alaska, but there's 577 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 1: a small town in northern Alaska that this week saw 578 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 1: the sun for the last time in sixty four days. 579 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: Could you and Danny g handle living in a place 580 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: where you go two months without the sun? That's from Chip. 581 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: So I think I'll go first, Danny. I think I could. 582 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 1: Here's why, this time of the year, I really don't 583 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: see much of the sun. I don't. I can see 584 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: it before I go to bed a little bit, but 585 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: I'm mostly indoors during the day. I don't really go 586 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: out and do anything during the week. I'm indoors and 587 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 1: by the time I get up get my day going, 588 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: I don't really spend any time in the sun. Now. 589 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 1: Saying that is one thing, but at least I have 590 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 1: the option if I wanted to go out and get 591 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: some suntime I could. Isn't that And I don't know. 592 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 1: Chip's obviously not here, Danny. But the place in Alaska, 593 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 1: aren't there like two much where they get no darkness? Also, 594 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 1: doesn't it even out? There's parts of year where they 595 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: get nothing but sunlight, and then the other parts of 596 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 1: the year they get nothing but darkness. 597 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 3: I believe. 598 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 1: So, yeah, so I guess it balance. 599 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 3: But yeah, obviously the harder one for people. I think 600 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 3: with the darkness. 601 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, because you'd feel claustrophobic, that's the thing. I think 602 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 4: I could do it for a few weeks, but then 603 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 4: it would start getting really hard, especially growing up in California. 604 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 4: I mean, we have unlimited sunshine most of the time. Yeah, 605 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 4: it would be a super hard transition. 606 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, it would be. Uh but thank you, Chip. I'm 607 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: glad to know that you're you're listening. I've never been 608 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: to Alaska.

I've been lucky that all my teams have 640 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: have had some success here. The Rams won a Super Bowl, 641 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 1: the hardest super Bowl ever during the pandemic. 642 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 3: Uh. 643 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 1: The Dodgers have won multiple World Series. The Clippers got 644 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:40,720 Speaker 1: to the final four. So everyone, everyone, everyone's had success. 645 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 3: All your teams except the Clippers. 646 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: All my teams have had success. It's it's been great. Wrong, 647 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 1: And it's a little deflating because you get there and 648 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:57,760 Speaker 1: it's it's awesome, you know, fantastic. Your team wins, it's wonderful.

As a fan, 651 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 1: they want you to immediately buy a T shirt and 652 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 1: a hat, which is overpriced and all that. 653 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 4: But that's the thing Ben and I know on the 654 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers documentary he talked about this, it's the well 655 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:22,360 Speaker 4: what's next? 656 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 3: What do I do now?

You 661 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 3: know what I mean? Like that's the pinnacle, so it's 662 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 3: all downhill from there. 663 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it. And keep in mind Joe Missoula is 664 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 1: the guy. A couple of years ago, while the Celtics 665 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: were running to win a championsped he was asked about 666 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,879 Speaker 1: the pressure and he said, there is no pressure. We'll 667 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 1: all be dead soon. That was his rep fun guy 668 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 1: at parties.

You're your research, in fact, 677 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: fact based that you leave very little room for any 678 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:25,280 Speaker 1: sane person to disagree or have a rebuttal. For example, 679 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 1: your take on the twenty twenty World Series being the 680 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 1: hardest in the twenty twenty NBA Finals being a Mickey 681 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 1: Mouse production, absolutely flawless.

He's truth, justice and 689 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,880 Speaker 1: the sports talk radio way. That's what he's all about. 690 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: What are you doing? And I don't have any Thanksgiving recipes? 691 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 1: What do you You don't do the cooking, Danny, right? 692 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:10,399 Speaker 1: You got nothing over? 693 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 4: No, no, And you know I have some family recipes 694 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 4: were handed down through email from my great aunt Joyce, 695 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 4: and she unfortunately passed away a couple of years ago, 696 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,240 Speaker 4: but she was nice enough to email me a couple 697 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:29,840 Speaker 4: of my grandmother's Italiano recipes. So I have some pastas, 698 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 4: her famous rigatoni, her casseroles, and her famous lasagna. So 699 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:40,840 Speaker 4: nothing like Thanksgiving. It's all like authentic Italian food. She 700 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:44,399 Speaker 4: made all that stuff from scratch, and luckily she wrote 701 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 4: her recipes down and gave them to my aunt. 702 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,800 Speaker 1: That's cool, my mom. When she passed away, we got 703 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 1: obviously she left everything behind, you know, Danny, when you passed, 704 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 1: you don't take anything with you. Anyway, she left everything 705 00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 1: and there were a bunch of recipes and she grew 706 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 1: up and lived her life mostly without computers, so everything 707 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,799 Speaker 1: was written down. It was all chicken scratch. You're trying 708 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 1: to read, what is that letter? I don't know what 709 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: that what is that number? 710 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 3: Is that a? 711 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 1: Four?

He says, you guys, 718 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 1: do you guys normally travel for Thanksgiving? Fun fact, Danny, 719 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:41,760 Speaker 1: I've never traveled for Thanksgiving. In fact, I hate even 720 00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 1: driving the day before Thanksgiving, which is like the worst 721 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 1: day at least in LA to be on the highways 722 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 1: because the traffic is insane, so I will try to 723 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 1: avoid driving at all.
