Thank you? Ohio Al. Here's an interesting one 38 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: from Michigan State. A professor at Michigan State had some 39 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: explaining to do. This professor some investigators who happened to 40 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 1: be some of his students, did some investigating and found 41 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 1: out that he had been a convicted meth manufacturer in 42 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: the past. But he was able to hide that information 43 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: and became a college professor at Michigan State. 44 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 3: Wow, we should write a TV show about this. 45 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, And they can throw pizzas on the roof and 46 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: they can have they can have a fine time there. 47 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: But yeah, this guy at Michigan State. Turns out, apparently 48 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: everyone's got a past, Danny, Everyone's got a past, and 49 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: this guy's past included a little methamphetamy. So the students 50 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: found out about it and did not necessarily go over 51 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: particularly well, as you might imagine in the world of academia, 52 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: not so good. Michigan State has had a tough, tough road. 53 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: But this guy, the guy's named Brendan. He was charged 54 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty for helping run a meth lab. He 55 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: was arrested in Louisiana, and this fall he started teaching 56 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: at Michigan State. Wow, that's impressive that you could be 57 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: arrested in twenty twenty with the math and then a 58 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: few years later you're teaching at a prestigious what I 59 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: thought was a prestigious university. 60 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 3: Anything as possible. 61 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, look at that man.

So yeah, and he 64 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: had taught anatomy and a few other classes there. According 65 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: to one of the students there, he was erratic and 66 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 1: just seemed impatient.

It was at a stop in Miami, 83 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: and a certain fan kind of caught his attention there, 84 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:19,359 Speaker 1: and so he gave him fifty grand. Do you you 85 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: have to pay taxes on that, right, or if it's cash, 86 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 1: you don't have to.

You much rather find a million dollars cash 95 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 1: because that you don't have to report taxes to a 96 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: million dollars cash. You're supposed to. But again, you know, 97 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 1: there's no paper trail on that.

They're not 121 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: paying the ransom attack. They're not given in at least 122 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: not at this point. They were refusing to pay and 123 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: it's still causing them all kinds of problems for their business. 124 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: But they're like, we're not paying, so I guess they've 125 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: been able to function. Did you go through any MGM properties, Danny? 126 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: Did it look all messed up? Was it a lot 127 00:07:58,160 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: different without. 128 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 3: We were on an property, didn't have any problem? 129 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: Oh okay, there you go.

The Ring camera people, here's a good marketing gimmut. 133 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: They're marketing gimmick. They're offering a one million dollar reward 134 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: for video footage of aliens captured using their camera. 135 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 3: Big guys ten feet tall, have big. 136 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:37,959 Speaker 1: Eyes, exactly exactly. Well, here's something that I think we 137 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,839 Speaker 1: can both appreciate, Dandy. It says that AI is a 138 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: legitimate threat to make the traditional college degree completely obsolete. 139 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 1: That going to college and getting all that student debt 140 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 1: that you get when you go to college, it's just 141 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: not going to matter because with the AI, you just 142 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: type of few words in about a being by the boom, 143 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: and you've got as much knowledge as anybody with a 144 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: bunch of degrees and the Rhodes scholar and all that stuff. 145 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 3: So I have a huge basketball IQ. 146 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: Dang. Yeah, well, Bob Ross, I saw this story floating 147 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: around and this is interesting. Bob Ross, the first made 148 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: for TV painting has popped up. It's on the sales market. 149 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: You can get the Bob Ross first made TV painting. 150 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: The legend the iconic Bob Ross man was he was 151 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: he get actually dressed up as Bob Ross one year 152 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: or was it last year? Maybe it was last year. 153 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe it was last year. Time flies 154 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: or it doesn't fly, I guess anyway. According to the 155 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 1: Washington Post, the painting has been in possession of a 156 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 1: single loan of the past forty years. That's that's a 157 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: long time. Four decades. Volunteer at the PBS station in 158 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: Virginia where that show was filmed, Ross donated the painting, 159 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 1: and the volunteer likely paid about one hundred dollars or 160 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: less for it. But they they're auctioning this thing off 161 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: nine point eight million dollars. It's called a walk in 162 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: the woods. It should be a walk to the bank. 163 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: It should be what it's called there. Yeah, I guess 164 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,079 Speaker 1: we got some money here.

Next up, Francine writes in 226 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 1: and says, why do you keep weed Man Hippie on 227 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: the Friday lame jokes portion of the show. He isn't 228 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,959 Speaker 1: funny anymore. His laugh is fake and I have to 229 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 1: turn the station off because I can't listen as long 230 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: as he's part of it. Well, thank you for the email. 231 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 1: The message here the reason, and this is totally transparent. 232 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: I want to be transparent with you. The reason we 233 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: have weed Man Hippie on is we we had a 234 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 1: couple of meetings and we tried to figure out how 235 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: can we piss off Francene, what would piss off what 236 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: would really piss off Francene to turn the station off? 237 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 3: And we all agreed weed Man Hippie. So that's why 238 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 3: he's a paid caller. And if you don't use him 239 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 3: during that segment, then it messes up the invoice. 240 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: That is true billing. The billing department does not appreciate that. 241 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: And weed Man, it's so funny. We were laughing. Actually, 242 00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: we had a post post show party and we Man 243 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: was laughing because he said, all these people think I 244 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: have no money and I'm getting paid for this every week. 245 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: It's a gag. And sometimes people even send the extra 246 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: money on that that Remember we started that dummy weed 247 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: Man weed Man Hippie Gmail account and then people would 248 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: like send him money and he thought that was funny too, 249 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: but we had to take that out, if you remember, Danny, 250 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: we had to take that out of his check, the 251 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: extra money. Oh, Big Lou from the LBC rights in 252 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: Good Old Big Lou and Big Lou says, this is 253 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: ask Danny G. Being that you have worked in sports 254 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: in the music business, who gives the best interview sports 255 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: figures or people in the music business, and who has 256 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: been a or favorite interview in both, respectively. So this 257 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: is only for you, Danny. I'm gonna sit this one out. 258 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: It's all you, Danny G. 259 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 3: Go ahead. I'm gonna say musicians usually give better interviews 260 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 3: because they're stone drunk, both just rolled out of a 261 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 3: hotel bed with a random female or male, depending on 262 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 3: who you're interviewing. So the debauchery in the music world 263 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 3: it's a notch above the professional sports world. So you 264 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 3: get some dirt. I'm thinking which rapper DMX was really good? Rip. 265 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 3: Not only was he a really good interview, Ben, but 266 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 3: we set up this whole Vegas weekend where me and 267 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 3: my station we flew out a winner, and it was 268 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 3: this girl and her best friend. We flew her and 269 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 3: her friends out to Vegas to see DMX in the 270 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 3: front row and meet him backstage. But Ben, it was 271 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 3: better than a meet and greet. We had come to 272 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 3: find out she actually slept with him. Whoa, and we 273 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 3: got the dirt The next Monday. She wasn't really cooperating 274 00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 3: when we were talking to her on the phone, but 275 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 3: we could tell that something shady had gone on. Her 276 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 3: best friend calls the morning show and spilled the tea 277 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 3: that they hooked up and that's why her friend was 278 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 3: acting so weird because her friend's husband listened to our 279 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 3: morning show. She came in super pissed, was screaming and 280 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 3: yelling in the general manager's office that we probably caused 281 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 3: a divorce. Talk about an awesome interview. 282 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 1: Wait, so she's married, she's at the DMX thing and 283 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: he wants to, you know, take her back to the badge. 284 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: He ends you all, right, here we go. Here we 285 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: go like Dak Prescott, Here we go. 286 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 3: Get gigy. So we would always whenever we would do 287 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 3: a flyaway, we always liked to check in with the 288 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 3: winner the following monday to get a review on the 289 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 3: concert and see how everything went. It was just like 290 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 3: a quick couple minute phone call with them. We when 291 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 3: we did that with her, she was very kind of 292 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 3: weird about the whole meet and greet part, and we 293 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 3: could tell something was wrong. So when her friend called 294 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 3: us and let us know what happened. Fireworks went off 295 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 3: and our general manager was stuck in the middle of it. 296 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 3: And the next morning he made us apologize to her 297 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 3: on the air, and we're like, apologize for. 298 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 1: What she got to hook up with a rap star. Yeah, 299 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 1: you don't need to a pop. I mean, she's the 300 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 1: one that unless it was something that it wasn't, and 301 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,959 Speaker 1: she's the one that decided she wanted to go that direction. 302 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 1: Why is that your fault? 303 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 3: I guess it's because we let the cat out the 304 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 3: bag that she cheated. But there was more than one 305 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,880 Speaker 3: interview that was spicy like that when it came to rappers. 306 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 3: So that was a lot of fun on radio. Also, 307 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 3: I interviewed Alicia Keys one morning and she got really 308 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 3: pissy and she hung up on me, and that went 309 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 3: down in radio history at the station I was at, 310 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 3: So I was known as the guy that pissed off 311 00:18:58,600 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 3: Alicia Keys. 312 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 1: That's cool, Yeah, yeah, yeah. Musicians are much athletes are boring. 313 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 2: Uh. 314 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 1: I don't get why so many they were on television 315 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: because most of them just they just are robots. And 316 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: the first casualty of interviewing an athlete is the truth 317 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: and also entertainment, Like there are a few guys that 318 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: are good, right, but most of them, they all they've 319 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: all memorized. It's like that line from Bull Durham, you 320 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: know about that you gotta learn your cliches. You know 321 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 1: you're gonna deal with the writers, And so they just 322 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: repeat that mumbo jumbo and they're just lifeless zombies. 323 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 3: Also, think about it, Ben, your alumni of kiss Am yep. 324 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 3: The musicians need you. They need you in your station 325 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 3: to play their song after song after song they release. 326 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,399 Speaker 3: An athlete doesn't give a shit about the radio because 327 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 3: there it doesn't change anything for them. If anything, it 328 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,440 Speaker 3: gives them crap and problems with you talking smack about 329 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,159 Speaker 3: them on sports radio. What does it help them with? 330 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 3: It doesn't help them with sales. They're not pushing a 331 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 3: song for somebody to buy. So Alicia Keys is a 332 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 3: good example of that. I made up with her. She 333 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,959 Speaker 3: came on the show again and apologized. I interviewed her 334 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 3: at a better time later in the morning, and I 335 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,879 Speaker 3: did a meet and greet with listeners and she was 336 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 3: super extra suite at the meet and greet. So she 337 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 3: made good. That happens with a lot of musicians because 338 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 3: they want to stay in a good space with your 339 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 3: radio station. 340 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 1: So my only I never met DMX, but when we 341 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: did the Malor Meet and greet in twenty nineteen, there 342 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: was a down the street. We were at the Cask 343 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: and flagging and down the street right near Finway, DMX was. 344 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 1: I guess she was either performing there somewhere in Boston, 345 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: but they came to a bar right near where we were, 346 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: and Blair from Maine, the DMX people, the roadies from 347 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,040 Speaker 1: DMX were all partying and having a grand time, and 348 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 1: that that freaked out Blair and Maine so much he 349 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:04,400 Speaker 1: had to leave early. 350 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 2: Whoopee pie. Blair sucks and Fox Sports Radio knows it. 351 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: He was so traumatized by the DMX crowd that was 352 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 1: just having a grand old time there. What's next, Georgian, 353 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: You've all the Texas rites? And he says, would you 354 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 1: rather guys escape prison in a sewer pipe like in 355 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: Shawshank Redemption or have to face have a face to 356 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: face conversation with Brian Finley after after he ate a 357 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 1: huge plate of garlic chicken Daddy, Yeah, yeah, I would 358 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: much rather just roll around in a sewer just with you. Know, 359 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: swamp creatures in there and all that. Yeah, that's what 360 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: I would go for rather than Brian Ferry spitting pieces 361 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 1: of leftover garlic chicken with almond butter. I'm good. 362 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 3: I don't need that. What about you, Danny, I'm with you. 363 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 3: Just call me Andy Duframe. 364 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, one, just chip away. He just got a chip away, 365 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: Josie writes, since says any news on how Roberto is doing? Uh? 366 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: Last night I talked to Roberto last time. He's doing well. 367 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 1: He finally passed his driving test, and I believe he 368 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 1: has started. Who should have him on? Maybe I'll get 369 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 1: him on one of these weeks. We'll have Roberto on 370 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,919 Speaker 1: to talk about what it's been like as a school 371 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 1: bus driver. But I think he's likely in the probationary 372 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: period still, if they still have that, and so I 373 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 1: don't know if he's actually running it by himself. He 374 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 1: probably still has somebody kind of keeping an eye on him. 375 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 3: But make sure you ask him about Josh McDaniels. He's 376 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 3: a big fan the Greatness. 377 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,119 Speaker 1: Alright, did you you didn't go to You were not 378 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 1: able to go to the Raider game this past week, 379 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,239 Speaker 1: which is probably better that way, right? 380 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 3: Yeah? It was a travel day. But yeah, I mean, 381 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 3: obviously McDaniels is on the hot seat. 382 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 1: I don't think he is. I don't think Mark Davis 383 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 1: wants to pay him, and they might have to pay 384 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 1: more to Gruden depending on how the lawsuit goes with Gruden. 385 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 3: So I mean, the controversy is that Sence Davis is 386 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 3: now worth so many more billions of dollars because of 387 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,160 Speaker 3: the brand new, state of the art stadium in Vegas, 388 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 3: with so many fans coming in from out of town 389 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 3: for the visiting team and to make it a party 390 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 3: weekend and get out of the cold, that he doesn't 391 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 3: give a shit about the fan base because he knows 392 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 3: that the stadium will still be full. I don't know 393 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 3: if that's true or not, but if it is, his 394 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 3: dad would slap him across the face. 395 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 1: So the NFL's thirty two teams in the NFL last 396 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,239 Speaker 1: my using malomath, and of those thirty two teams, there 397 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 1: are three teams that consistently have more fans of the 398 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 1: other team than their team when they play at home, 399 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: the Chargers, Rams, and Raiders. It's fascinating. 400 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 3: Irony is when the Raiders play in LA, seventy percent 401 00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 3: of the stadium is Raider fans. 402 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 1: I know, nuts and they wanted they wanted to move 403 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:07,199 Speaker 1: to LA and the NFL block them. The geniuses at 404 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 1: the NFL A no, no, no, work on Park Avenue 405 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: and live out in the Hamptons. 406 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,399 Speaker 3: I hate the NFL for blocking that. 407 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,120 Speaker 1: That would have been amazing for the for the ratings. 408 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 1: What is next? Alf writes, and he says Alf is 409 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 1: back from load management at Uncle Dennis's casa. Yeah, I 410 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 1: wonder what happened. I was where. Anytime Alf doesn't send 411 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 1: an email or respond to on social media during the show, 412 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, let's do it well on this check 413 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: on Alf. I mean, my Alf's my guy. He follows 414 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 1: me around. I mean, whatever shift I'm doing, Alf is 415 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: going to be. There's a few guys like Alf, and 416 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: he's one of the guys on that list. Anyway, says, 417 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 1: do either of you know what see you? L O 418 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 1: t t s R Coulette's is that it? 419 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 3: I believe. 420 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: According to this thing that he sent me here, Alf, 421 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: the word c U l o t t es. Coulettes 422 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: is a women's knee high trouser cut with very full 423 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:18,879 Speaker 1: legs to resemble a skirt. He says. He says that 424 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: should be the word of the week. No, I think 425 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:25,160 Speaker 1: we're good on that. Alf was back in Bella's prime, 426 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 1: would she was she a daddy's girl or a mommy's girl? Okay, 427 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: so Bella loved the wife more than me. In fact, 428 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 1: when Bella we first got Bella and she had she 429 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 1: was full of energy and excitement. When my wife would 430 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: get home from work, she if she worked during the 431 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:45,880 Speaker 1: day the Dave shift, and I'd be at the house 432 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 1: and then I'd be getting ready for the night show. 433 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,880 Speaker 1: And when she'd park her car and walk towards the door, 434 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 1: Bella had such keen instincts that she would hear and 435 00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: sense her presence and start running and jumping at the 436 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: door to try to get through the doorff. Now Bella 437 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: lays around and all she does is shit and pissed. 438 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: But back then she definitely was a bigger fan of 439 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: the wife for sure. Fred from Spring Texas right since says, Hi, there, 440 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: I know your voice is your moneymaker. Guys, do either 441 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 1: of you do anything special to take care of this 442 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: vital asset. That's our buddy, Fred, very reliable Fred. Every 443 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: week we hear from Fred in Spring Texas so, yeah, dandy, 444 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 1: do you do anything spectacular. Back in the old days, 445 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 1: guys used to chain smoke to get their voice right, 446 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: but we don't. Most of us don't do that anymore. 447 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: The busiest part of the radio station was the smoke area, 448 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: but that's kind of gone away from most people. 449 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 3: The one part of Vegas that I loathe is all 450 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 3: the cigarette smoke. Disgusting. Never a cigarette before. I can't 451 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 3: stand the smell of it. I hate the way cigarette 452 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,719 Speaker 3: smoke gets trapped in your throat. This is just being 453 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 3: a bystander and getting it secondhand. As far as taking 454 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 3: care of it in a healthy way, I mean, we 455 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 3: just got to make sure that when we're off the 456 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 3: radio and off the podcast, we kind of shut it 457 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 3: down and rest our vocal cords. 458 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, And the key is if you're around someone that 459 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: is sick that could lead to laryngitis, you gotta go 460 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,120 Speaker 1: the other direction. You gotta do it. That's the only 461 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: thing that can really knock us out as laryngitis. 462 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 3: I use half a bottle of hand sanitizer daily, so 463 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 3: you're right. I always am trying to make sure I'm 464 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 3: not catching anybody's cooties. 465 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,359 Speaker 1: And my thing and I've talked about this, Fred I 466 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: suck on raw garlic. If I'm thinking I'm gonna get 467 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: sick and I kill the infection, Ben sucks before it 468 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: becomes an infection. All right, let's get out on this 469 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: one more. Marcus from Bruceville, Eddie, Texas. Right, Sandy says, 470 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 1: are there any tricks to fasting? I never tried it, 471 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 1: but have seen great things about it. Can you give 472 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:19,680 Speaker 1: a schedule maybe I can try as a rookie. I 473 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: know you're not a nutritionist, but I need something to 474 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: help shed a few pounds. And also, has Danny g 475 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 1: Ever tried fasting? And if so, how did it go? 476 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 3: So? 477 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 1: Why don't we start with you? 478 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 3: Danny? 479 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 1: Have you? Have you futched around with the fasting which 480 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 1: is pretty popular these days? 481 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 3: Now, I've done portion control before. For me, is better 482 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 3: than fasting. The stomach growling and all that. It makes 483 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 3: it too hard for me to focus on my work. 484 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 1: Gotcha? So all right, here's the deal, Marcus. There's a 485 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 1: couple of ways you're can attack it. The first thing, 486 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: I assume you have a smartphone. If not, you forget 487 00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: what I'm about to say because you don't. There's no 488 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: but if you have a smartphone, there's a bunch of 489 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 1: apps that you can get and they're pretty much all free. 490 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: They they usually have a pay area. The one I 491 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: use is called zero. We'll give them a pop. They 492 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: should buy a commercial, but it's called zero. That's the 493 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: one I've been using. And there's different levels to it. 494 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 1: You can really pick whatever works for you. As a 495 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: rookie or a new beet, you gotta It's like it's 496 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: like a race. If you're running the New York Marathon, 497 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,959 Speaker 1: you're not gonna start out running twenty six point two miles. 498 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 1: You're not. You gotta work your way up to that. 499 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: So I would advise you to start with thirteen hours, 500 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: which seems like a lot. But if you just don't 501 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:45,959 Speaker 1: eat three hours before you go to bed, Let's say 502 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 1: the average person sleeps eight hours. I'm not average. I 503 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 1: don't sleep that much. But let's say it's six hours. 504 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: Fine less than it. Say you sleep six hours, So 505 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: if you don't sleep three hours before you go to bed, 506 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: you for six hours. That's nine hours. So you only 507 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: have to get four more hours when you wake up 508 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: without eating, and then you've done the thirteen hours. But 509 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 1: if you sleep eight hours, and you stop eating three 510 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 1: hours before bed. That's eleven hours, so you only have 511 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 1: to wait two hours when you wake up. 512 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 3: Prick for your initial hunger pains. Is it just lots 513 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 3: of water? 514 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I drink a lot of water. Mind over matter. 515 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: And there's a couple of points when you start fasting 516 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 1: a lot like I went from. I started actually was 517 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 1: sixteen and then I worked my way up to eighteen 518 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: and now I'm usually somewhere between twenty two and twenty 519 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: four hours. And then one stretch like this week I 520 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: had a fast. I went three days seventy two hours 521 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: without without consuming any food. So and I would have 522 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 1: probably gone longer but for food for our life, like socially, 523 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 1: you know Danny food, we go out, you know, I 524 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 1: mean the wife will have lunch ores and it's a 525 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 1: social thing. 526 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 3: That's the thing I was thinking about, is that I 527 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 3: think my wife, you would be pissy that I wasn't 528 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 3: eating more with her, like your wife probably had to 529 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 3: make an adjustment that she was eating some meals by herself. 530 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it is problem. And then I do cut 531 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: back when we travel because I'll only do like sixteen 532 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: hours when we travel, because then it becomes yeah, a big, 533 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: big issue. So I hope that helps you out though, Marcus, 534 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: So thank you, good luck. Let us know how it 535 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 1: goes and whether it's the app I recommend it or 536 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 1: there's a bunch of other apps, you can find one 537 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 1: that works for you. And it's a good way to 538 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: keep track of it because it has a timer and 539 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: then you can see how long you have left and 540 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: then when you accomplished it. There's also challenges. Can you 541 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: do for sixteen hour fast in a week? Can you 542 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 1: fast for two hundred hours and you know, twenty days 543 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 1: or fourteen days or something like that. So that kind 544 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 1: of stuff. It's all about getting the big word is ketosis. 545 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: That's the big word you want to get in that 546 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: Allegedly your body burns fat. And so if you if 547 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: you in theory, if you're fast, you're you're setting your 548 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: body up to burn burn fat. 549 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 3: And that is it. 550 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 1: It is Sunday, sn Y, New York.

I haven't doubled checked, but every 555 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 1: week so far it's aired at the same time, so 556 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: I don't know why it would be different. In fact, 557 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 1: let me check that right now. Do you have anything 558 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: to promote, Dany.
