I guess we have no. 0:01:03.840 --> 0:01:06.200 This is our last Saturday pot, right, because there's thirty 0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:08.160 one days in the month of My math is correct, 0:01:08.640 --> 0:01:12.000 and today is the twenty fifth, So next Saturday will 0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:16.040 be June first. Right? Is my computer like brain correct? 0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:19.400 They told me there would be no math involved. It's 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:24.600 not trigonometry. Yeah, all right, I'm adjusting my Janet Jackson, Mike, 0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:25.760 I stole from the remote. 0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:30.759 Well, you had a successful broadcast yesterday. 0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:34.440 Yeah. I love Arizona and I don't want to spread 0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:37.120 any rumors about the vegan but there was something we 0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:39.440 did after the remote that involved something green. 0:01:40.560 --> 0:01:43.360 Oh oh but not okay, Well, there's two types of 0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:45.720 green he likes. There's two, Yeah, there could be either one. 0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:49.240 I don't know. I have no idea. But Saturday is 0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:52.520 National Wine Day today, dating, I'm not a wine guy. 0:01:52.520 --> 0:01:53.360 Are you a wine guy? 0:01:54.200 --> 0:01:55.840 My wife he loves wine. 0:01:56.800 --> 0:01:59.240 Yeah, my wife wants to be a wine person, but 0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:00.960 we I don't really like to taste, and I don't 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:04.120 think she does anywhere any any any in any way. 0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:06.800 But I think we are being dragged later this summer 0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:09.800 to some kind of wine tasting event, which is going 0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:12.240 to be very odd because I don't like wine. So 0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:14.400 why would I go on a wine tasting thing if 0:02:14.440 --> 0:02:15.160 I don't like wine. 0:02:15.240 --> 0:02:17.600 Well, you'll have fun, though, because of the buzz from 0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:18.840 wine is nice. 0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:21.920 Okay, Well, we'll have that. Also if you want to 0:02:21.919 --> 0:02:25.519 celebrate today's National bath bomb Day. So and it's also 0:02:25.639 --> 0:02:26.960 National brown Baggot. 0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:28.280 Day as well, so it sounds very violent. 0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:32.520 Holiday day today yeah, we got you bath bomb and 0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:36.600 brown baggot, which is what David Vassie should put over 0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:39.320 his head after this past week. But I digress. We're 0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:41.480 only at deaf Con. We're only at deaf Con three. 0:02:41.680 --> 0:02:43.680 We're only at deaf Con three. That's it. We're only 0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:47.000 at deaf Con three. Today's a pod. We've got the 0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:52.000 Blessing of Low Expectations, the Ninth Island, the Buggy Bonanza, 0:02:52.919 --> 0:02:54.520 and we'll see what else we have time for. We 0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:56.959 have some other stuff that we might get to, including 0:02:56.960 --> 0:02:59.080 the Idiom of the week, but we'll start with this. 0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:03.480 The last weekend, I was given the opportunity to do 0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:06.440 something that I had not done in many, many years. 0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:10.040 My mother in law, who I get along with. I'm 0:03:10.160 --> 0:03:12.959 very lucky. I hear stories from dudes I can't stay 0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:14.799 at my mother in law. Actually, I think it's often 0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:16.520 women that hate their mother in law, but there are 0:03:16.520 --> 0:03:18.360 guys that don't like their mother in law either. Anyway, 0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:20.079 my mother in law's pretty cool. She was a nurse 0:03:20.120 --> 0:03:24.480 for a long time, and she really likes to gamble like. 0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:27.040 She enjoys gambling a lot. She likes playing the slot machines, 0:03:27.760 --> 0:03:30.880 which is not a great thing for you in terms 0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:33.280 of making money, right, you don't make a lot of 0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:35.200 money at that. You often lose money. But every once 0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:37.880 in a while she'll hit a jackpot and she's she's 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:42.520 very happy. So she contacts us this couple weeks back. 0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:46.320 She's like, hey, I got I hit a jackpot and 0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:49.800 I can get you a free room at she gambles 0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:54.200 at one of the local Southern California Indian casinos. So 0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:57.000 you know, it's a free room kind of nice thing. 0:03:57.680 --> 0:04:00.360 It's a getaway, but it's not that far, which is 0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:02.200 like the greatest thing. You don't have to travel out far. 0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:03.840 You don't have to get on a plane or a train. 0:04:04.320 --> 0:04:08.080 You just drive out and you go to this hotel 0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:10.640 and you can gamble a little bit and if you're 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:13.000 into that kind of thing, and have a good time. 0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:16.840 So we're like, okay, we'll do it. So she books 0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:23.480 the hotel room and my wife's been taking some classes online. 0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:25.560 She's been doing some school stuff in addition to her work, 0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:28.120 and so she's kind of stressed out. We're like, all right, 0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:33.919 we'll go out there. And she had very very low expectation. 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:36.640 She was not really looking forward to this. So we 0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:40.320 get out there and it's out. We went to If 0:04:40.320 --> 0:04:44.560 you're familiar with southern California, they have great commercials. Yamava. 0:04:44.680 --> 0:04:47.640 Have you heard of Yamavay You've been to Yamava. 0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:50.400 I have been there one time. All right. 0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:53.839 So we got a room with the hotel at Yamava Casino, 0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:57.360 which is in San Bernardino in the nine oh nine 0:04:57.440 --> 0:05:01.400 in southern California. So we drives a pretty good drive 0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:05.200 to get out there. It was like Friday night drive 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:08.760 out to Yama Bah and we're cruising on out there 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:12.159 and then whatever, and we go a couple of freeways, 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:19.080 get off the highway and Crackhead, Bob, Crackhead, Meg Crackhead, Steve, Crackhead, Sarah, 0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:22.440 they're all there. Right. It is like I felt like 0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:25.320 I was in San Francisco in the Tenderloin district. When 0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:28.640 I got off the freeway, I'm like, oh boy, this 0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:30.520 is like sodom and gomor here. What do we what 0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:33.880 do we done? My wife's oh boy, oh man, and 0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:36.640 we're like, oh, this is not good. This is not good. 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:39.599 And so we we get off the highway, turn left. 0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:43.279 We stop at a red light. There's more people that 0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:46.080 are really down the lock but want your money. I 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.120 don't know what their drug of choices. I can imagine 0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:51.600 what it is, but whatever, whatever, you know, we keep 0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:54.520 going and it's night, so everything everything looks scarier at 0:05:54.600 --> 0:05:57.560 night and not true. Everything was a little more dangerous 0:05:57.560 --> 0:06:00.560 at night. And so we're driving. We go up the hill, 0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:03.880 you go down, turn left, go up a hill and 0:06:03.920 --> 0:06:05.520 then we see at the very top of the hill 0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:12.760 is this palace, like this beautiful palace, just magical. So 0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:17.200 that's pretty cool. So we get up there and my 0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:18.880 mother in law is like, you gotta go to the valet. 0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:20.760 I'm like, I hate valet parking, but just go to 0:06:20.800 --> 0:06:23.159 the vallet. So we went to the valet at the 0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:28.440 hotel and we get out and it was amazing, Like 0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:32.400 the hotel was was awesome. They had a robot it 0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:36.360 was like from Star Wars was running around the lobby 0:06:36.360 --> 0:06:39.600 of the hotel. It was adults only, so and they 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.320 had security everywhere to keep the people that were going 0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:47.039 to mess up the hotel out, and the room was 0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:50.240 first class. That I had not been to an Indian 0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:53.400 casino in a long time because I did not have 0:06:53.440 --> 0:06:55.440 some good experiences at them back in the day, Like 0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:58.080 they were kind of eh, but this place was this 0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:00.919 was like being in Vegas. I felt like I was 0:07:01.000 --> 0:07:08.040 walking around in the casino floor at MGM or Aria 0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:09.120 or somewhere like that. 0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:12.640 Oh, it's not that far from your house, so I 0:07:12.720 --> 0:07:14.520 know I could get into trouble. 0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:16.680 But there is no sports book because you know, there's 0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:20.880 no sports gambling because of the Native American casinos. As 0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:24.400 I was told, as I understand it, they blocked the 0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:27.840 vote a couple of years ago because DraftKings and the 0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:31.800 other major sports books that were not their books were 0:07:31.800 --> 0:07:34.960 going to run sports gambling in California. So they spent 0:07:35.040 --> 0:07:37.200 all this money to block it. While they're going to 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:41.080 have another vote, I believe in twenty twenty five. I 0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:42.720 think it might be later this year, but I think 0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:45.520 it's twenty twenty five. I'll have to double check on that, 0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:48.600 and that will be the one. As I was told 0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:52.320 that the Native American Indian casinos will support because they'll 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:56.720 be the ones in control of sports gambling. And then Danny, 0:07:57.680 --> 0:08:01.000 oh boy, watch out, watch out, will I will be 0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:05.000 a regular at Yama Vah and all these other hotel 0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:09.600 casino places in southern California. I did see club member yes, 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:13.160 near the food court Danny. They did have what I 0:08:13.360 --> 0:08:15.440 believe will be where their sports book is. They had 0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:19.800 this little cutout with nothing but TVs and they had 0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:24.200 a broadcast. I think it was the LAFC team was 0:08:24.240 --> 0:08:27.960 playing Charlotte, I'm not sure. Last it was last Saturday, 0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:32.439 and there were hundreds of dudes who were there drinking 0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:35.240 in the bar area because they had like ten, fifteen, 0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:38.000 twenty monitors and they all had the soccer game on 0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:41.440 and they were making noise, going crazy. They were really 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:43.640 into it. I kind of wish I was into soccer 0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:45.160 because I would be like, that's kind of cool. Like 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:46.800 they really were passionate. I was like, what do you 0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:49.120 In my head, I'm like, why are you so excited? 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:53.840 It's zero zero, don't I don't understand. But they were 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:56.960 enjoying themselves, having a fine time, so it was great. 0:08:57.080 --> 0:08:59.880 I mean, and they're not paying for me to say it. 0:09:00.360 --> 0:09:02.319 They I don't even know if they're an advertiser or 0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:04.560 not not getting anything out of this. I just thought 0:09:04.559 --> 0:09:08.320 it was a great experience, and I I give part 0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:09.960 of it. I didn't have to pay for it. Actually 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:14.240 think it's pretty expensive to stay at that particular hotel. 0:09:15.080 --> 0:09:17.760 But my wife played the slots. I'm not a big 0:09:17.800 --> 0:09:22.600 slot guy, and she actually made a little money. Yeah, 0:09:22.679 --> 0:09:25.680 I guess we got some money here. Made a little 0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:28.360 money playing the slots, which is which is rare. 0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:30.240 So so that was that. 0:09:30.200 --> 0:09:32.360 Was kind of neat. So I will be back. I 0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:35.440 have a feeling this summer. I love going to Vegas too, 0:09:35.480 --> 0:09:37.160 and I plan on going there. We're hoping to have 0:09:37.200 --> 0:09:40.160 a Malard meet and greet in Last Wages Nevada at 0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:46.160 some point this summer. But in between I'll probably be 0:09:46.200 --> 0:09:49.920 back at Yamava and hanging out having a grand time. 0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:52.120 I had some pretty good restaurants. Had a great pretzel there. 0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:53.240 Some of the restaurants sucked. 0:09:54.280 --> 0:09:54.880 I'll give you one. 0:09:55.240 --> 0:09:58.720 Don't eat at the George Lopez Cantina or whatever it's called. 0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:02.839 Their bad restaurant. Did not like that man, But everything 0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:04.480 else we ate was pretty pretty good. 0:10:04.520 --> 0:10:08.319 The Barbie scratch George Lopez off the list of potential 0:10:08.360 --> 0:10:09.360 guests on the fifth hour. 0:10:09.520 --> 0:10:10.960 I don't think we have to worry about that one. 0:10:11.760 --> 0:10:13.520 He just probably put his name on the restaurant anyway, 0:10:13.559 --> 0:10:16.040 he had nothing to do with the food. And the 0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:18.600 barbecue place was pretty good. I was surprised did you. 0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:21.880 Put your foot down though, celebrity or not wealthy or not. 0:10:22.080 --> 0:10:24.880 If your name was on something, wouldn't you taste test everything? 0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:28.280 Yeah? But if you become a big enough name, you're 0:10:28.320 --> 0:10:28.880 just a dumble. 0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:30.199 Yeah. 0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:32.880 Like if my name was on my name is on 0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:34.959 I got I got chicken fingers in Kansas City, I 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:38.320 got the chicken sandwich. In Denver we got also the 0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:39.160 malth Or Fowler. 0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:41.680 Yeah, but that's the menu. Imagine if your name was 0:10:41.720 --> 0:10:44.000 in big neon lights in front of the restaurant. 0:10:44.280 --> 0:10:46.400 So if I was, like, I don't know, Colin Cowherd 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:49.480 or something like that. Yeah, yeah, I think this would 0:10:49.520 --> 0:10:52.160 definitely be be different. I think that would be a 0:10:52.200 --> 0:10:56.040 lot of fun. Though, to run a restaurant and the 0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:58.600 promise you that's a big pain in the ass. It 0:10:58.720 --> 0:11:01.280 is a couple of bad and the food goes bad, 0:11:01.360 --> 0:11:05.679 you lose your money, you're fired. That'll put me out 0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:08.360 on the Ninth Island, Danny, if I'm out there open rest. 0:11:08.480 --> 0:11:10.960 Yeah, well, you know the Ninth Island is Las Vegas. 0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:12.040 Is that right? 0:11:12.160 --> 0:11:15.439 Yeah, that's what Hawaiians call it. You know, there's such 0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:20.320 a population of Hawaiian people there that they consider it 0:11:20.360 --> 0:11:24.679 to be their home away from home. So when Mariota 0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:28.199 was not taken, but when the Raiders signed him that offseason, 0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:31.360 they were all excited there in Hawaii. They're like, yeah, 0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:34.599 so really quick before I tell that story. This is 0:11:34.679 --> 0:11:36.360 part of it. And this is when I was listening 0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:39.680 to the Ben Mallor Overnight Show my WiFi and Big 0:11:39.720 --> 0:11:42.280 Baby CoA have been under the weather. She's got an 0:11:42.320 --> 0:11:45.319 air infection. He's also got a cough and he's been 0:11:45.360 --> 0:11:48.840 tugging and rubbing on both of his ears. We have 0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:52.720 to go to Kaiser's urgent care location which is in 0:11:52.760 --> 0:11:54.920 Woodland Hills. So I got to jump on the one 0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:58.760 on one Freeway. And here's the update from ABC seven. 0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:03.280 Dunt dun duntu breaking news.

Guess what 0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:29.319 it was the first one was an owl?

An owl and a 0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:53.760 squirrel both crossed to the other side. 0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:56.599 You know what it is? A modern marvel?

Now, I used 0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:20.680 to live there back in the day and it was cool. 0:13:20.920 --> 0:13:22.520 Now it's just it's. 0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:26.600 The home of the rams A practice facility. 0:13:26.720 --> 0:13:29.439 They are, and well they're gonna have to do barriers. 0:13:29.480 --> 0:13:34.200 There's just homeless encampments and tents all over that city. 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:36.400 Now, well all over southern California. 0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:40.160 Well it did, I know, but the San Fernando Valley. 0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:42.960 There were certain cities that didn't have that issue, and 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:46.480 now they do. So I'm listening to the end of 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:51.640 the Dodgers postgame and then your show comes on. We'ren't 0:13:51.640 --> 0:13:53.400 able to make an appointment for either of them, so 0:13:53.400 --> 0:13:56.360 we're thinking we could just walk them both in, and 0:13:56.400 --> 0:14:01.000 the guy says, sorry, closes at nine pm. You gotta 0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:03.800 go to the er which is next door. And I'm 0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:06.920 not kidding you. There's about fifty hobos inside this place. 0:14:07.480 --> 0:14:11.760 Homeless people were sleeping inside the emergency room waiting room. 0:14:12.520 --> 0:14:14.840 So my wife says, I am not taking the baby 0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:18.200 in there. We just scrap it. We drive back home. 0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:22.000 Problem they're not even letting traffic go on that part 0:14:22.040 --> 0:14:24.200 of the one o one. There's a route that you 0:14:24.280 --> 0:14:27.440 have to take on side streets to get back onto 0:14:27.480 --> 0:14:30.920 the one oh one later after you pass this wildlife crossing. 0:14:31.600 --> 0:14:35.000 It took an extra twenty minutes to get home because 0:14:35.040 --> 0:14:38.400 we were in a line of cars and I'm like, 0:14:38.560 --> 0:14:41.840 this fucking thing saving an owl. I'm gonna I'm gonna 0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:46.840 punch somebody in the throat right now. The air infection 0:14:46.960 --> 0:14:49.880 is really bad for my WiFi. Co is still not 0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:53.080 feeling better. So now fast forward a few days and 0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:56.400 I take CoA myself to the urgent care in our town. 0:14:57.040 --> 0:14:58.960 I was a hero for the day because my WIFEI 0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:02.160 then drove her self di Woodland Hills after she found 0:15:02.200 --> 0:15:04.320 an appointment for the day, so they were at the 0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:07.160 same time. So I'm in there. I'm being super dad. 0:15:07.240 --> 0:15:09.600 I was able to get him on the scale. This 0:15:09.720 --> 0:15:11.800 kid is about thirty pounds, by the way, he was 0:15:11.960 --> 0:15:15.320 just under thirty pounds. He's nine months old. The lady 0:15:15.440 --> 0:15:21.920 was like, whoa, he's a whopper. He was smiling and 0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:24.120 waving to the staff in there. They all loved him. 0:15:25.000 --> 0:15:28.480 Oh dude, the receptionist said, he looks just like you. 0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:31.720 He's adorable. And I was like, yeah, I'm gonna start 0:15:31.760 --> 0:15:32.680 taking him to the mall. 0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:33.560 Here we go. 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:37.400 I told my wife about that later and she's like, 0:15:37.440 --> 0:15:40.040 you are not allowed to go anywhere with him by yourself. 0:15:40.560 --> 0:15:43.400 So I get him back in his car seat and 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:46.040 I drive to Woodland Hills to meet her at her 0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:48.440 appointment to hand him off because I got to go 0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:51.240 to Sherman Oaks for the Coveno and Rich show. I 0:15:51.280 --> 0:15:54.280 get in the car. He's all settled, he's got his babe, 0:15:54.360 --> 0:15:56.680 as we call it, his bottle. And I looked down 0:15:56.720 --> 0:16:00.600 at my left leg and it is just small in 0:16:01.320 --> 0:16:03.960 what's the word when you rub your pant leg on 0:16:04.040 --> 0:16:06.520 a tire word soot. 0:16:06.880 --> 0:16:08.200 Yeah, like the rubber stuff. 0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:13.080 Yeah yeah, it just just completely black crap all over 0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:16.040 my gray, my nice gray joggers. 0:16:16.360 --> 0:16:17.520 And you're starting to look like a hobo. 0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:20.440 Yeah yeah, I looked like I belonged to the Woodland 0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:26.160 Hills emergency room waiting room. I'm like, this sucks. So 0:16:26.240 --> 0:16:29.880 I hand off the baby and I'm like, okay, perfect, 0:16:29.920 --> 0:16:32.040 I have time now to go to the target. I do. 0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:34.400 I have to try on a couple of pairs of 0:16:34.440 --> 0:16:37.480 these joggers that I get there. Sitting there and doing 0:16:37.560 --> 0:16:40.600 the show with Covino and Rich. This was this last Thursday, 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:44.480 and I'm feeling better about myself because I don't I 0:16:44.600 --> 0:16:47.560 think I don't look like a hobo. This show ends 0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:51.880 and Iowa, Sam tells me, what is that throw up? 0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:53.600 Like? 0:16:53.760 --> 0:16:58.760 What points to my left shoulder? And Ben, there is 0:16:58.840 --> 0:17:06.120 this big pool of dried up puke from baby courtesy 0:17:06.160 --> 0:17:06.960 of baby color. 0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:10.080 He left your assuming ear, He sure did, he said, Daddy, 0:17:10.160 --> 0:17:12.200 I want you to have something to take the work 0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:13.040 to show the boys. 0:17:13.080 --> 0:17:16.439 Oh here, I was worried about looking like a bum 0:17:16.840 --> 0:17:20.159 because of the stain on my pants, and what I 0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:22.760 really should have been worried about was the puke on 0:17:22.800 --> 0:17:26.280 my left shoulder, and then I thought I rewound the 0:17:26.359 --> 0:17:31.919 day in my mind. Big Mike who Coveno. All the 0:17:31.960 --> 0:17:34.520 guys at the table when we did our pre show meeting, 0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:37.600 they were probably staring at this puke on my shoulder 0:17:37.600 --> 0:17:38.840 and nobody said a word. 0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:43.359 Gives the hurl of shame new meaning Iowa. 0:17:43.400 --> 0:17:46.240 Sam was so nice to point it out. But I 0:17:46.320 --> 0:17:48.679 call this the Ninth Island because if you go to 0:17:48.760 --> 0:17:53.000 my Twitter account at Danny G Radio. Luckily, I was 0:17:53.040 --> 0:17:56.520 wearing my Hawaii shirt that day that shows all the 0:17:56.640 --> 0:17:58.720 islands and they're kind of like in a white color 0:17:58.760 --> 0:18:01.600 on a dark shirt, okay, and then on my shoulder 0:18:01.680 --> 0:18:05.359 the dried puke looks like the Ninth Island on the shirt. 0:18:05.720 --> 0:18:07.040 Oh, that's that's nice. 0:18:07.200 --> 0:18:13.120 Yeah, it's so sweet by coor that is so Yo Vegas. 0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:15.800 You're not the Ninth Island. Puke on my shoulder was 0:18:15.800 --> 0:18:16.600 the Ninth Island. 0:18:17.240 --> 0:18:19.280 I love it. That's great. Well, you know what I 0:18:19.359 --> 0:18:23.160 felt like when Lorena was working one of the first 0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:27.000 nights and she pointed out that my pants were covered 0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:31.639 in hair from my dog Luigi, who sheds and was 0:18:31.760 --> 0:18:34.560 jumping up on my lap, and I didn't realize it. 0:18:34.600 --> 0:18:35.879 I was in a hurry to get out of the 0:18:35.880 --> 0:18:39.560 house and I was covered in dog hair and that 0:18:39.680 --> 0:18:41.280 was that was wonderful. 0:18:41.960 --> 0:18:44.399 Last week I bought a dog and I needed an emotion. 0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:48.400 So this is kind of an odd one. Danny. I'm 0:18:48.400 --> 0:18:52.360 gonna call this the buggy Bonanza. And I blamed Supermarket 0:18:52.359 --> 0:18:55.920 Steve for this. We've had an ongoing conversation on the 0:18:55.920 --> 0:18:58.600 show the last couple of weeks about shopping cars. It's 0:18:58.920 --> 0:19:01.560 it's actually gone on for a couple months. And I'm 0:19:01.600 --> 0:19:03.119 on the right side of history. Many people are on 0:19:03.160 --> 0:19:05.520 the wrong side of history. I stand with Supermarket Steve, 0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:08.119 a man that's worked in the business for many, many years. 0:19:08.560 --> 0:19:12.360 So I'm at the gym the other day and I'm 0:19:12.400 --> 0:19:14.760 on YouTube trying to find something to wash to try 0:19:14.800 --> 0:19:18.000 to kill the time while I'm on the treadmill, and 0:19:19.280 --> 0:19:21.400 I don't normally do this, but for some reason, I 0:19:21.440 --> 0:19:27.320 looked at the recommended for you section on YouTube and 0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:34.560 guess what popped up? A documentary about grocery stores popped up. 0:19:35.800 --> 0:19:39.840 Do you think maybe, just by chance, that's because the 0:19:39.880 --> 0:19:42.040 phone's spying on me, Danny and has heard me talk 0:19:42.040 --> 0:19:43.040 about shopping carts. 0:19:43.280 --> 0:19:48.040 It's the Russian spying through your phone exactly. 0:19:49.000 --> 0:19:51.639 But for some reason, because I'm an idiot, I clicked 0:19:51.640 --> 0:19:53.560 on it. I was like, all right, I mean, maybe 0:19:53.600 --> 0:19:54.200 i'll learn. 0:19:54.080 --> 0:19:55.400 Something makes sense. 0:19:57.080 --> 0:20:00.640 Uh, And so I click on this thing and I'm 0:20:00.680 --> 0:20:04.920 watching and it was actually pretty pretty pretty good, and 0:20:06.200 --> 0:20:10.600 I learned something, ironically enough, about the shopping cart. There 0:20:10.640 --> 0:20:18.080 was this grocery store magnet in Oklahoma named Sylvan Goldman, 0:20:18.920 --> 0:20:22.240 who Sylvan Goldman I believe is his name. I know 0:20:22.280 --> 0:20:24.760 Goldman was last name. So he was in Oklahoma, and 0:20:24.800 --> 0:20:30.359 he was the guy that invented the buggy, or as 0:20:30.400 --> 0:20:33.720 we call it, the shopping cart, but back in those 0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:41.160 days they called it the buggy. And in the nineteen thirties, 0:20:41.240 --> 0:20:48.760 right nineteen thirties, the buggy slash grocer cart was invented 0:20:48.840 --> 0:20:53.360 by this guy, Sylvan Goldman. But here's the thing I learned, 0:20:53.400 --> 0:20:56.120 the thing that I took away from this documentary. People 0:20:56.320 --> 0:21:00.880 hated it when they debuted the grocery cart. People were 0:21:00.920 --> 0:21:05.040 offended by everyone couldn't They didn't like it. The people 0:21:05.040 --> 0:21:07.320 of Woklahoma didn't like it. And the reason they didn't 0:21:07.400 --> 0:21:11.560 like it is because the women were offended. They said 0:21:11.560 --> 0:21:14.120 it looked like a baby carriage, and they didn't want 0:21:14.160 --> 0:21:17.159 to push around a baby carriage. When they got a 0:21:17.160 --> 0:21:19.760 moment's piece to go out shopping, They're like, you know, 0:21:20.080 --> 0:21:22.760 fuck you, I'm not gonna push her out of a 0:21:22.800 --> 0:21:26.800 baby carriage. And the men were offended because, you know, 0:21:26.800 --> 0:21:28.520 they said, well, I can carry around. I'm a man. 0:21:28.600 --> 0:21:31.000 I don't need that. I can carry around my groceries. 0:21:31.359 --> 0:21:32.920
