1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:01,480
Speaker 1: Kabbooms.

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

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 2: of the Old Republic, a soul fashion of fairness. He

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

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

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 1: Wow.

8
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 2: The clearing House of Hot takes break free for something special.

9
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 2: The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now.

10
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: In the air every way a glorious football Sunday. It

11
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:43,480
Speaker 1: is on like Donkey Kong today and we're your pregame

12
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: actor or maybe during the game.

13
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 3: I don't know.

14
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: You've listened to this podcast. Whatever you want, we do

15
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: in the morning, but you can listen whatever you want.

16
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 1: But it is the Fifth Hour with Ben Maller and

17
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: Danny g. We thank you for following the podcast and

18
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: actually listening to the podcast, which is the most important part,

19
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 1: and we want you to listen every single second. But

20
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 1: all we really need is what we need approximately two

21
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,759
Speaker 1: minutes of your time. Five minutes, all right, five goes

22
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: five good minutes, and that's all we need. We're good,

23
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 1: We're golden.

24
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 3: I've listened back to these podcasts, been in like twelve

25
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 3: fifteen minute increments. It's not hard to listen to your

26
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 3: content for fifteen minutes. It's like your live radio show.

27
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,680
Speaker 3: I'll tune in for fifteen twenty minutes. You get on

28
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 3: my nerves about something Clippers related and I turn it off.

29
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: I understand why you would be jealous of the Clipper talk.

30
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: It's the hottest team in the NBA, the people's team.

31
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: They've got James Harden. Now they're just on an absolute

32
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: as the kids say, they're on a burner.

33
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 3: What tell me you're not distracted by that ugly ass beard.

34
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: Though, Uh No, I'm fine. I'm distracted by the fact

35
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: that I'm concerned he's going to puke all over himself

36
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: in the playoffs like he's done for every other team

37
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: he's played for. But the good news is the Clippers

38
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: have enough guys where even if he has a crapper

39
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: like we talked about yesterday, they should still be able

40
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 1: to weather the storm. If you will.

41
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 3: So, you think if they did forensics on his beard

42
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,079
Speaker 3: they would find food crumbs from ten years to goo.

43
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, he can't get rid of the beard. Though he

44
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: looks very odd without the beard. He looks very odd

45
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 1: without the beard. We've seen photos of when he's at

46
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: Arizona State.

47
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, he looked alien like.

48
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: Looks like a nerd. And with the beard, he looks

49
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: like a tough guy. He's got that intimidating swagger as

50
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: a tough guy. Wrong. Absolutely, all right, let's get to

51
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: the Let's just get to the mailbag. Why waste time?

52
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: People sent letters in They want us to talk about

53
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: that what they said they wrote? So let's here we go, ohioal.

54
00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 4: It's let's get into it.

55
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 1: First. One is from Dan in Cannes City. It says,

56
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: guys like the podcast looking forward to the Chiefs game

57
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 1: this weekend. He sent this the other day. He says,

58
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: I just saw a story it's somewhat recent, of Patrick

59
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: Mahomes and he was asked a question what his favorite

60
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 1: burger was between in and out five guys and What

61
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: a Burger? And Mahomes said that the top burger was

62
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: at What a Burger? What do you guys think about

63
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: about Mahomes' favorite favorite burger? From Dan?

64
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 3: What a guy? That's because he spent a lot of

65
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 3: time in Texas. Right.

66
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: Well, not only that, Danny, I believe he owns a

67
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: bunch of water burgers. I think he brought some locations

68
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: to Kansas City, so methinks the witness is biased, right,

69
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 1: I compromised. I think he's compromised. I've been to Whataburger.

70
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: They have some in Arizona, and I like.

71
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 3: What a Burger.

72
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 1: I've told the story, my what a Burger story because

73
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: of the Sun's Phoenix Suns games, and they used to

74
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: I'd listen late at night to Suns games on the

75
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 1: radio on transistor radio because I'm a nerd. Got in

76
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: a radio and the announcer, Al McCoy, when the Sons

77
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 1: would hit a three point shot, he'd say, what a shot?

78
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 1: What a burger? And I want to eat there? And

79
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: I have family in Phoenix, so I'd go. We'd go,

80
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: and I'd ask my mom to eat it.

81
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 3: What a burger?

82
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:40,720
Speaker 1: And it was good, But it's not as good as

83
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 1: in and out. It's certainly not as good as five guys.

84
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 1: Those are better burger location. That's a bad job by

85
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 1: my homes. Yeah, but he is from Texas.

86
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 3: So I've never tasted that before.

87
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's better than a lot of the fast food

88
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: play certainly better than what Travis Kelcey likes. His favorite

89
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: burger is Burger King. He says, that's the top fast

90
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 1: food bro who has Burger King?

91
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 3: Not nineteen eighty five.

92
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: I let it go, Okay, let it go. Like I'm

93
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 1: glad Burger King's still around, but they got to reinvent

94
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 1: themselves over there at the King. The King has fallen.

95
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,479
Speaker 3: You mentioned five guys. I sure wish that joint was

96
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:22,599
Speaker 3: more affordable. Yeah, it's really ricey. I ordered just for

97
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 3: myself because my chick wasn't in the mood for a hamburger.

98
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 3: She opted for what was next door, which was like

99
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 3: a Mediterranean grill. So I was like, okay, will you

100
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 3: go into the grill? I gave her my debit card

101
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:36,799
Speaker 3: and I'm like, I have a little bit of cash

102
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 3: on me, I'll go in to five guys. That little

103
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 3: bit of cash in my pocket was nowhere near enough,

104
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 3: and all I got was a small fry and like

105
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 3: one of their small cheeseburgers. Holy shit, it's expensive.

106
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's ridiculous. Did they have the peanuts of

107
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 1: those back? I know they got rid of those during.

108
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,600
Speaker 3: They were in there. Yeah, because I filled my bag up.

109
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 3: That's the only upside to spending that much money. You

110
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 3: get free peanuts. But how much do peanuts really cost?

111
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 3: A bag of peanuts is gonna cost you six bucks?

112
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 3: Maybe a big bag, guess. I guess at Dodger Stadium.

113
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: A Dodger Stadium will cost you six hundred dollars because

114
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: they got otani but at the store. But maybe more

115
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,359
Speaker 1: than that. The prices have gone so much. It's that

116
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: putin price hike, Danny, that's it.

117
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 3: I don't know you're right, because I bought a bag

118
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,600
Speaker 3: of pistachios last week fifteen dollars for a small bag.

119
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: They really get you on the Macadamian nuts. Those because

120
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 1: they're exotic from Hawaii and they stick it to you.

121
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: And I love Macadamian nuts, but I don't get them

122
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: very often because they're A they're not very good for you,

123
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 1: and B they taste great, and see they gouge you.

124
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: I've been making this brittle and I tried Macadamian ut

125
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 1: bro which came out alright. The peanut brittle I think

126
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: is better than the Macadamiant brittle.

127
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 3: But I'll be the judge of that.

128
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay, you're getting me a mug. I'll definitely

129
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: just some brittle. A Lion's van Larry writes and says

130
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: in He's in the Mutton state. He says, Ben and

131
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: Danny Joy the pod while I'm cleaning up the house here, Ben,

132
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: I heard you upset over something that happened at the

133
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 1: start of the show the other night. You said you

134
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: didn't say what it was. Can you let us fifth

135
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: Hour stands know what happened? I don't know. What do

136
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: you think, Dan, should I tell the tell the story?

137
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 3: I don't know, tell the two minute version of it? Okay?

138
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: So yeah, so the way this works, I'm very happy

139
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: that the show has a lot of commercials. The more

140
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: commercials the better, right, because we're in We're not doing

141
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: commercial free We're not doing commercial free radio. We're doing

142
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 1: like commercial radio. And it tells you that the show's

143
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: doing well. The more commercials you have, to me, it

144
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: tells you the show is doing pretty well. That there

145
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: have been times I've been at Fox Sports Radio for

146
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: over twenty years, there have been times we had no

147
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 1: commercials that ain't good. So I'd rather have too many

148
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 1: then not enough. But I do a lot of live reads.

149
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: I haven't recently this the last year, I've started doing

150
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: more live reads, which is fine. I don't care. I

151
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 1: like doing live reides. I put my own touch on them.

152
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: I put my own bullshit in them. Yeah, Ben Maler here,

153
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 1: I know I always. I learned that from a guy

154
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: early in my career, a seasoned radio guy back in

155
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: the heyday of radio, and he told me, he said, listen,

156
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: if they're going to force you to do these commercials,

157
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 1: what is the most important thing for you? It's your brand.

158
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: So every time the commercials play, if they play your

159
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: name or you say your name, then that maybe somebody

160
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: hears you and likes how you read the commercial and

161
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 1: they want to hear your show. And I've always done that.

162
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: Every time I have to do a commercial, I always

163
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: try to put my name in there.

164
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,079
Speaker 3: When I was producing your live show, I would email

165
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 3: your spots off to sales, and sales would say, oh,

166
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 3: he added his name. Thank you.

167
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: Listen. That's the way it goes. You want me to

168
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 1: do it, you want pay me a little extra, I

169
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: won't do it, But they don't. They never every time

170
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,199
Speaker 1: I say, hey, pay a little extra, I'll take the

171
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,199
Speaker 1: name out. They never want that. They never say that's

172
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: a good idea. So I'll give you the brief story.

173
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 1: Larry thank you for listening. Good luck to your lions today.

174
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: At least cover the spread. That would help me out. Yeah.

175
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: So the other night I get again. We do a

176
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 1: lot of commercials and I have a big stack of

177
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 1: copy digital copy, mind you, but there's a lot of

178
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: different commercials, and I am given the name of the

179
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 1: commercial that I have to read at the end. We

180
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 1: usually do a live read at the end of the monologue,

181
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 1: and then we do a couple during the hour, like

182
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,559
Speaker 1: brief small reads, one at the bottom, sometimes when the

183
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: last segment. So this other night, I'm beginning the show,

184
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: the open to the show is on. I've got to

185
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: present the monologue for the hour at the top of

186
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: the hour, first hour of the show. And as the

187
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,559
Speaker 1: open is playing, as I'm turning my mic on, a

188
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 1: voice in my head says, all right, here's the commercial

189
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: you need to read. Here's the name of it, you know,

190
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: on like, I don't have how am I going to

191
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 1: get I have to do the monologue? And then I

192
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 1: had to Yeah, it just the timing was a little

193
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: log that. That's the thing, you know, Danny. The timing

194
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: is important. You want to have time to have the

195
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: copy and be prepared and all that stuff, and so

196
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 1: it was a little a little upsetting, but I calm down.

197
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,079
Speaker 1: I calm down, and I did find the copy.

198
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 3: Was it Coop talking in your air or Iowa Sam.

199
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 1: Well, I will not I will not reveal who did that,

200
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,680
Speaker 1: but they are big fans of a woman's basketball player

201
00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 1: from Iowa. So I don't remember the person's name.

202
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 3: There was. Can I tell you. I'll make this a

203
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 3: thirty second story. But I was producing the great Steve

204
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 3: Hartman on the weekend a couple of years ago.

205
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 1: Homer Hartman come on and.

206
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 3: By the way, on his show, I begged the Raiders

207
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 3: to use their draft capital to go up and get C. J. Stroud. No, no,

208
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 3: I would have been a genius general manager, though ben

209
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:30,079
Speaker 3: I wouldn't have been fired like Ziggler. But anyhow, Iowa

210
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 3: Sam was running the board on those weekend shifts. Steve Hartman,

211
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 3: who's a well tested veteran, does not like voices in

212
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 3: his head as he's doing his show. So Iowa Sam

213
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 3: asked me, hey, did did Hartman do that fifteen second

214
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 3: live read? I was answering his phones. I'm not sure,

215
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 3: but let's wait wait for him to finish the break.

216
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,839
Speaker 3: If he didn't do it. We'll make it good. We'll

217
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 3: make it good. On the other side, I got into

218
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 3: Steve Hartman's airpiece and said, blah blah bla blah blah

219
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 3: live read Steve Hartman stops dead in his tracks on

220
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 3: the air and said, what we have breaking news. Let's

221
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 3: just say. Steve Hartman came in during the commercial break,

222
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 3: furious inside. You don't never talk in my earpiece again

223
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 3: unless it's breaking news.

224
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, listen, I I'm not that extreme. I'm not this

225
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 1: just the time could not have been worse. I'm just

226
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: trying to do the monologue as good as I can.

227
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: I got this stuff, fugazy camera on me because they

228
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: want the Internet videos, which is fine whatever, that's their thing.

229
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 1: I give them the videos. But I can't. I can't

230
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 1: be like scrambling around and all that stuff. So I

231
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 1: just all I need is like two or three minutes.

232
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 1: Is that too much to ask? Dan? Like two or

233
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,080
Speaker 1: three minutes, and then I have time to find it

234
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 1: and then I can get Oh.

235
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 3: And you know what, Sam, He's got really good intentions,

236
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,439
Speaker 3: and he had good intentions trying to help Steve make

237
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 3: sure he did that read. But it's just you gotta

238
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 3: know the host. You got to know their tendencies and

239
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 3: what they like and what they don't like.

240
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: You can slide that in later in the show. And yeah,

241
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: no harm, no foul, Everything's good, Mike, and Fullerton writes,

242
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 1: and he says, happy New Car Smell Day? Is it

243
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: New car Smell Day today? That's what he says. It's

244
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: a national Oh.

245
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 3: I love that smell. By the way, that should be

246
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 3: a it is. Oh, it should be a cologne. It

247
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 3: is wonderful. It's one of the great smells. It's one

248
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 3: of the reasons to buy a new car.

249
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: Is just for the smell.

250
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's amazing.

251
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 1: It's National Kazoo Day. It's Lego Day. It was a

252
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 1: huge lego guy back in the back in the day.

253
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 1: I think, is he making that up? I don't know.

254
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: There's a million Holidays today, a weird bugezia. He's probably

255
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 1: making that up. Bad job by him anyway. Mike says, Uh,

256
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: what's your opinion guys on people making a heart with

257
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 1: their hands. I think it's just about the stupidest, lamest

258
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: thing a person could do. Travis Kelsey doing it and

259
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 1: a touchdown celebration was the last straw for me, all right, Mike, Yeah,

260
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: wasn't that sarcastic?

261
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 3: Though?

262
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: Didn't Kelsey say that was kind of mocking the Bills

263
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: fans that were busting his balls?

264
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 3: Supposedly. I'm not sure if that's true or not. Maybe

265
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 3: he was embarrassed after the fact and it was like, Oh,

266
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 3: let me pretend like I was poking at the Bills.

267
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like what did Kelsey got all upset with the

268
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: Bills fans? Like what did he expect? Like he's he's

269
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 1: the playing for the other team, Like you got that?

270
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: And with all the other stuff Kelsey's done to kind

271
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: of enter the political conversation with the deal, the vaccine thing,

272
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 1: and then the bud light like what did he think?

273
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: And Buffalo it has been very very good to Taylor Swift.

274
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 3: That area more than sells out, They sell out the

275
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 3: parking lot when she performs there. So to me, I

276
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 3: saw that heart flash towards the box. I think he

277
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 3: was trying to proposed to her. That's what I think.

278
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: Just go with it, Just just go with it.

279
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 3: He is like, oh, the cute heart to my girl.

280
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 3: And then people are like you pussy and he's like, no,

281
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 3: no Ah, I met that was for the Bills fans

282
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 3: that were all up on her. Yeah, no, no, we

283
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 3: know what you were doing, dude. All right.

284
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 1: Next up on the mailback Steve in La where we

285
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: do this podcast from, and Steve says, Ben and Danny

286
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 1: enjoy the podcast. Ben, you're a pretty cynical guy. I

287
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: like your late night show. I think it's great. By

288
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 1: the way, are compliments really genuine? I see what you

289
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: did there, Steve. So here's my position on compliments. I

290
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 1: want to see if you agree with me on this name. So,

291
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 1: I believe that twenty percent of compliments are legit and

292
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: eighty percent are bullshit? Do you think I'm right with that?

293
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 1: Like a lot of people compliment stuff just to be

294
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: not the polite, but they don't really believe it. I

295
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 1: think about twenty percent a two hundred batting average is legit.

296
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say forty are legit? Forty sixty I

297
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 3: would say, so pop.

298
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 2: You know.

299
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 3: By the way, last Wednesday was National Give a Compliment Day?

300
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 1: Oh? Is that is that right?

301
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 3: Yeah?

302
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: It's nice.

303
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 3: I'll give you one, but it's not Wednesday anymore.

304
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 1: That's right, it's thank you. Yeah. I think only twenty percent.

305
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: But and this depends there's a lot of variables, Steve,

306
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 1: and you listening. I hope you're listening, Steve. But there's

307
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: a lot of variables because you not only have like location,

308
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people at work who are who

309
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: say nice things to try they think they're going to

310
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: get promoted to certain people. Right, there's that I think,

311
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: I think, you know, twenty I'm going I'm sticking with

312
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: twenty percent. I think twenty percent of legit. And then

313
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 1: there's because there's a lot of bullshit artists that are

314
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: out there. So I think those those people, you got

315
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: a factor that in where they're not sincere at all.

316
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: They're using the compliment, they're weaponizing the compliments, all right.

317
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 1: Next up, ask Alf writes in Alf, the alien o

318
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 1: Pinery says, what are the odds that Eddie would listen

319
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:17,159
Speaker 1: to the uncensored tweet segment of the Fifth Hour podcast

320
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,920
Speaker 1: that he suggested? Yeah, if you missed this, Danny, Eddie.

321
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 1: I'll often not be able to read things on the

322
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 1: radio as I can't read that on the air whatever

323
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:32,199
Speaker 1: because they're fowl, perverse, x rated, whatever, So I'll just

324
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,639
Speaker 1: skip over them as I'm going through social media with it,

325
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: and we get a lot of jokes, the funniest jokes

326
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 1: we get we can't read on the air because they're

327
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: not radio friendly. So Eddie is like, well, just do

328
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 1: it on your podcast. Just read the really foul jokes

329
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,919
Speaker 1: and do the X rated content and all that. I

330
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: go for little taste and anyway, Alf says the answer

331
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 1: of how the odds that Eddie was listen to the

332
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: uncensored tweet segment zero percent? Alf says, who is he kidding?

333
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: He says, he barely listen.

334
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 3: Wait, wait, wait, Alf, You're forgetting something. Though. All we

335
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,679
Speaker 3: would have to do is talk about Eddie's wife and

336
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 3: the Chargers on the podcast. Eddie would tune into that one.

337
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 3: So in the middle of that would be like, oh,

338
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 3: by the way, Eddie's wife and the Chargers, did you

339
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 3: see what she tweeted about the new head coach blah

340
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 3: blah blah. And if you told Eddie about that, then

341
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 3: Eddie would tell you, oh, happy wife, happy life, and

342
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 3: he would tune in.

343
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, your set up right? How about shut up? Wait

344
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 1: all these Charger fans, Danny, I know, wow, man, they

345
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 1: are on cloud nine.

346
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 3: They are to This fixes everything, man, This takes the

347
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 3: curse off of the Chargers.

348
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: Hey, it is a good hire, I'll give him that.

349
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,679
Speaker 1: But I think Antonio Peers is a good hire with

350
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,679
Speaker 1: the Raiders. I think he'll do a good job with

351
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,400
Speaker 1: the Raiders. It's like it's going to be very interesting

352
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 1: now in the AFC West to go to Sporto. But

353
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 1: you got Sean Payton, who many boot liquors in the

354
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,639
Speaker 1: media think is amazing with the Broncos. You got the

355
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 1: Raiders with Antonio Pierce, so I think she knew pretty well.

356
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,120
Speaker 1: You got Harball, Jim Harball with the Chargers, and then

357
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: at the very top as Andy Reid, assuming he doesn't

358
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 1: retire either later today or after the Super Bowl if

359
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 1: the Chiefs win today, and that's a really loaded division.

360
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're not kidding. We went from Red Hackett, McDaniels

361
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 3: and Staley to read Sean Payton, Antonio Pierce, and Jim Harbaugh.

362
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:37,680
Speaker 1: It's an upgrade.

363
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 3: It's an upgrade, just a little bit of it.

364
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,400
Speaker 1: Chargers no longer having their yoga coach doing the downward dog.

365
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 1: They don't have him as the coach anymore. Staley, Oh

366
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 1: my god, what a disaster. All right, next up on

416
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 3: The light goes all the way across, so it looks

417
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,159
Speaker 3: like a spaceship is behind you.

418
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. Those are really expensive too, right.

419
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 3: I see some futuristic cars in this area, but that

420
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 3: is next level. Man. The way those lights look at

421
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 3: night especially.

422
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks pretty good. There's a Tesla dealer not

423
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,120
Speaker 1: far away from the Malor mansion, and they I heard

424
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: a rumor that the Tesla people have been loaning out

425
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 1: those you know, those weird looking trucks that they've got.

426
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 3: Now. Colvino said he saw one for the first time

427
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 3: last week and he bugged out. He said it is

428
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 3: the most futuristic looking vehicle he's ever seen in his life.

429
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 1: What does the inside of it look like? Though I've

430
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: not seen the I don't Yeah, I don't know, I don't.

431
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 3: Oh, but he said he was just blown away. He

432
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 3: had seen pictures, obviously, but he said seeing it in

433
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:07,360
Speaker 3: person was a whole different thing.

434
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm a big guy. I think it's more important

435
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 1: to have a nice, comfortable inside of the car, Like,

436
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,479
Speaker 1: I don't obviously want to look decent, but I'm not

437
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 1: worried about how much it looks on the outside. I

438
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 1: want to because I don't see the outside. I'm on

439
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 1: the inside, so I want a comfortable seat. I'm the

440
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: most comfortable car I ever drove in was a Lincoln

441
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 1: Town Car in Cleveland that we rented, and it was

442
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 1: like sitting on your sofa. This is years ago, driving

443
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 1: while you're sitting so comfortable.

444
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 3: That's classic grandfather material right there.

445
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 1: Like, hey, I was in my twenties, man, I was

446
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:45,719
Speaker 1: in my early twenties.

447
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 3: I was like this. My grandpa had this big long

448
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,119
Speaker 3: Caddie when I was a kid, and he drove that

449
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 3: thing around like he was a pimp.

450
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, man, those I'm gonna get one of those

451

Speaker 1: things again down the line, and if I can afford him,

452
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 1: I'll do that. I heard. I don't know if I finished

453
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:06,479
Speaker 1: the story. They're loaning out the Tesla trucks to like

454
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 1: social media influences so they can do videos. So they

455
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,120
Speaker 1: do they think these people who watch the videos go, oh,

456
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 1: I'll go out and spend one hundred thousand on a

457
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,399
Speaker 1: Tesla truck or whatever. How much are those things? Are

Speaker 1: guys be coming to town here for the Super Bowl?

463
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: Would love to meet you. Well, you'll be there, Dan,

464
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 1: I don't know that I'm gonna be. I've not heard

465
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 1: from anybody, so the fact that management has not contacted

466
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: me would lead me to leave. Chet, I didn't make

467
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,959
Speaker 1: the list this year, but I could still go. Vegas

468
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 1: is like a suburb, as you know, check because you

469
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 1: live in a suburb of Vegas, like la is pretty

470
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,439
Speaker 1: much a suburb of Vegas anyway, So I am considering

471
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: making And I haven't even talked to you about this, Danny.

472
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm glad this came up because I asked our

473
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 3: boss last week. I said, is any of the Fifth

474
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 3: Hour going to be recorded there again? And he said, honestly,

475
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 3: I haven't heard from Ben about any of it this year,

476
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 3: so I think he was waiting to hear it from you.

477
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 1: All Right, Well, I'll message him, but yeah, I would

478
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 1: like to go that Friday and just kind of hang

479
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 1: out like we did last year. We had Emmitt Smith on,

480
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 1: which was pretty cool. And the only problem is with

481
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 1: the logistics of this year with the TV. I had

482
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 1: the opportunity to do the TV show from Vegas, but

483
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,880
Speaker 1: it would have absolutely killed me and I didn't want

484
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 1: to die. So yeah, I think the plan tentatively will

485
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 1: be to go just drive do the overnight show, and

486
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,680
Speaker 1: then drive out and hang out all day and try

487
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,120
Speaker 1: not to pass out from lack of sleep. I think yeah,

488
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 1: because that worked out pretty well last year. I had

489
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,640
Speaker 1: a great time. It was fun. We had a really

490
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,600
Speaker 1: good time. We had some cool people we got to

491
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 1: talk to.

492
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was fun recording the fifth hour there. Oh

493
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 3: in ps, I looked up the Tesla truck. You're right,

494
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 3: it's around eighty thousand dollars with the upgrades, though, I

495
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 3: guess you could. What would you do put a machine gun?

496
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:09,919
Speaker 1: I'd put a gun rack on the back of it,

497
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: you know. No, I just put like a sofa in

498
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: there in the Middle's sit.

499
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 3: On, build a little man cave in the back seat.

500
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 1: Do a couple more Nick in Wisconsins as Ben and Danny.

501
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: When you were younger, were there any jobs other than

502
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 1: radio that you did, and if so, what were they?

503
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 1: We both went to radio very young. Da, I was nineteen.

504
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 1: How old were you when you got red?

505
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 3: You were younger than me, right, fifteen years old?

506
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 1: Well, I pretended like I was in radio when I

507
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 1: was fifteen, but I went in. I think I might

508
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,400
Speaker 1: have been even eighteen. Well the first like, I think

509
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: nineteen was the sweet spot. Yeah, trying to do the math.

510
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:49,920
Speaker 1: I think I was just before I turned nineteen, So

511
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,640
Speaker 1: I was like eighteen. I say nineteen because that's when

512
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,439
Speaker 1: it really I was an intern at eighteen, and I

513
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: got my first paid gig at nineteen. But I did

514
00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: I did like random. I did it as a newspaper

515
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 1: delivery goes that count. I delivered newspapers when I was

516
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,880
Speaker 1: a kid, and I worked at my mom. My mom

517
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 1: ran a mailing service. I bulked mail place, so I

518
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 1: put a lot of labels on envelopes, did that kind

519
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 1: of stuff post office, went to the post office a lot.

520
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 1: My mom made a lot of money on junk mail

521
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 1: like that. Really, back before the Internet, you had to

522
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:25,359
Speaker 1: spend a lot of money real realtors and whatnot on mail,

523
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 1: and my mom managed a lot of that stuff. So

524
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: I helped out out with that. What about you, Danny?

525
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 1: Is it all radio all the time?

526
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 3: Almost? But you know, when you're starting out as a

527
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 3: kid in radio, you're just doing weekends, like weekend overnights.

528
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 3: So I had to find something to do during the

529
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,200
Speaker 3: week when it was the summer, you know, for a

530
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,920
Speaker 3: summer job. During high school, I worked at a place

531
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 3: called Baker Brothers. It was an auto parts warehouse and

532
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 3: the owner operator lived on the property. Well, he had

533
00:27:55,600 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 3: a young, blonde, botty daughter. On my work breaks, she

534
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 3: would come over and chit chat with me. One day

535
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 3: she told me, Hey, tomorrow, I want you to come

536
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 3: over for lunch. And I was like, you sure your

537
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 3: dad will be all right with that? And she's like, oh, yeah,

538
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,400
Speaker 3: he likes you. I remember getting home and I told

539
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 3: my mom about this, and she was, you better be careful.

540
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,640
Speaker 3: He'll fire you. He's not gonna fire me. She even

541
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 3: said he likes me. So the next day at work,

542
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,439
Speaker 3: then I wander over on my lunch hour, knock on

543
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,919
Speaker 3: their door. She lets me in. I sit down. She

544
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:30,399
Speaker 3: made lasagna, by the.

545
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: Way, nice.

546
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:36,880
Speaker 3: And boom goes to dynamite. Guess who walks in? Oh no,

547
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 3: and he gives me the dirtiest. Look what are you

548
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 3: doing in here?

549
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 1: It's not trigonometry. I'll eat lasagna.

550
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 3: Man. I was mysteriously laid off for my position a

551
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 3: week later.

552
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 1: But that had nothing. Those things were not related at all, right, No,

553
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 1: in the next at all, not at all. Did you

554
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 1: go back from more lasagna after that?

555
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 3: Or no? But anytime I've ever had lasagna since I

556
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 3: think about you fired.

557
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 1: I bet uh Tillo writes in he says, Ben, you

558
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 1: always keep me entertaining the Wee Hours with the Fifth

563
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: Like do you think we're gonna remember the pod that

564
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 1: he's talking about here? But he did write this this week,

565
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 1: so it must have been one. He says, I can't

566
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 1: wait to listen to today's show. He liked the Muppets

00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 3: a skip pop bouncer. Right, Yeah, that was a good story.

573
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a good story by you. Tila says

Speaker 1: didn't say what city is from parts Unknown says I

577
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 1: got one question big band and Danny g The backscratcher

578
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: portion of the Fifth Hour is on Snooze Pajol. Yeah,

579
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 1: we haven't done it recently because we haven't had any reviews.

580
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 1: So the question.

581
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, Ben, back to your muppet. Yeah,

582
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 3: what a great video you posted last week.

583
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 1: Oh, thank you. I appreciate that. Yeah, video with the Mummy.

584
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 1: I should do that more often. People like muppets.

585
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 3: They love Yeah. I thought you had hired a voice

586
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 3: artist and then the camera went to you. I was like,

587
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 3: oh shit, that was Ben doing the voice.

588
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: We spare no expense here, Danny, no expense, No expense

589
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: is spared on this.

590
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 3: Let's be the faith of our podcast that muppet should

591
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 3: be the mascot of the Fifth Hour.

592
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyway, he says the Backstress reportions the fifth hours

593
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: of the Stews Patrol. He says, which of these two

594
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 1: things Shane says will occur first, A y'all hit five

595
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: hundred reviews on the podcast or b Bill Belichick since

596
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 1: the all time NFL wins record. All right, so I

597
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 1: we're ahead of Belichick because we still can get reviews. Belichick,

598
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 1: unless he gets hired by another team, cannot get the

599
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,400
Speaker 1: all time wins record. So I'm betting on us, Danny,

600
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 1: I am betting on this podcast. I just looked. We

601
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 1: have four hundred and twenty eight reviews. Now, last year

602
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 1: we were averaging two or three a week, right, one

603
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 1: to three a week we were averaging, but starting in

604
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 1: like December, that like went away. But here's the thing.

605
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 1: We're getting more people in the mailbag. There's different names

606
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 1: that are sending questions in, which is great. Not that

607
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,719
Speaker 1: we don't love Pierre and Mike and you know all

608
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: the guys that normally write in. So we're getting some

609
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 1: new but we just need to cultivate them, Danny, to

610
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: put reviews in. That does help us out on the

611
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 1: podcast page. So that would that would be big. So yeah,

612
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 1: but I'm betting on it. I'm betting.

613
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, we're going to hit that mark first.

614
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it might take six years, but we're going to
