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

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 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,479
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 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: Wow.

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

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

10
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 3: In the air everywhere, Well, come in to the fifth

11
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 3: Hour jump on the bandwagon, out of Control me Ben Mahler.

12
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,559
Speaker 1: Along with the great Danny g Radio. You hear us

13
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 1: during the week on Fox Sports Radio. I'm on late

14
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 1: night as you know, the Ben Mahler Show. This show

15
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: a spin off of that show. Danny is on during

16
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: the week in the afternoon with Coveno and Rich and

17
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: we form Voltron here on the week kends. Every single

18
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: day there's audio content and today being Sunday, so we

19
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: do have on the agenda the mail Bag, but we're

20
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,759
Speaker 1: not going to start with the mail bag, Danny, because

21
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 1: there's some stuff we didn't get to yesterday that we

22
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: need to get to today.

23
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, lots of interesting stories. We call it. Pop goes

24
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 4: the culture.

25
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: That's right, and we have a special musical open. It's

26
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: kind of a big deal. It really is, Ohio al.

27
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 4: John John.

28
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: All right, and this is important. This is our first

29
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: full NFL Sunday, which means a couple of things. It

30
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: means that we really need you to focus on us

31
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: before the games or after the games, probably not during

32
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: the game. And it also means that Benny versus the

33
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: Penny will stop airing once these games kick off. So

34
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: if you're listening early in the morning here on this Sunday,

35
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: there are supposed to be some viewings. I don't have

36
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 1: the complete schedule, but I was told by the people

37
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: in NBC that this thing will air right up until

38
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: about kickoff, because why would you put the show on.

39
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: It's dated, It's not an evergreen show once the games begin.

40
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: Although I did tell one of the people, Danny, that

41
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: it is probably more entertaining after the games have been

42
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 1: played and you can look at how wrong I was

43
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: or how ridiculous the penny was. But they don't agree

44
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: with that. Cooler heads prevailed, and so it will stop

45
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: airing at the end of well, I guess one o'clock

46
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,119
Speaker 1: Eastern time, when the games kick off. So there is that.

47
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: But this is pop goes the culture, and these are

48
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: random pop culture stories and we give our brief thoughts

49
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 1: on them. That's the way this is supposed to work.

50
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: First one is from television's Jimmy Fallon, a scathing rebuke

51
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: of Jimmy Fallon in Rolling Stone, chronicling what it's like

52
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: to be an employee under Jimmy Fallon on the Tonight

53
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 1: Show and you know, claiming it's very toxic. It's this

54
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: is a I guess you would call it a hatchet job.

55
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 4: It's a hit piece.

56
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that's the way it read to me.

57
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 1: Maybe not, maybe people read it differently, but it's like, hey,

58
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 1: Jimmy Fallon's a bad dude. I didn't have a good

59
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: experience with Jimmy Fallon, and we need to cancel Jimmy Fallon.

60
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 4: I have heard stories about this guy, and I probably

61
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 4: bought into some of them because I just don't think

62
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 4: he's that funny. He laughs at his own jokes constantly,

63
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 4: and he mumbles a lot. I can't make out half

64
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 4: the stuff he's mumbling.

65
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: A buddy of mine who works in the business sent

66
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: me a text the other day, Danny, and he said,

67
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: how unimportant are late night TV hosts. They've all been

68
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: off the air for seven months or something like that.

69
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: Now has anyone missed them? Has missed Jimmy Kimmel or

70
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: Jimmy Fallon or any of these other guys.

71
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 4: What a great point.

72
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't matter. They used to matter. They were

73
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: like Johnny Carson and Jay.

74
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 4: Leno and Letterman. Letterman was off the air for that

75
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 4: many months, people would riot.

76
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, there'd be upheople. Jimmy Fallon's off the air. Nobody

77
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: even notices. I wouldn't even thought about Jimmy Fallon if

78
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 1: it was not for this Rolling Stone story. But I'll summarize, Danny.

79
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: I assume you guys talked about this on Covino and

80
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 1: Rich or whatever this week, but I didn't talk about

81
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 1: my show. And so they just talked about him being

82
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 1: a phony, like you know, he's the goodie two shoes

83
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 1: guy on television and it's a total sham and all that,

84
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 1: and he's they claimed he was erratic, intimidating, rude, they said.

85
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,559
Speaker 1: And they said, there you know, they're good and bad days.

86
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: Good Jimmy days, Bad Jimmy days. And according to two

87
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 1: current and fourteen former employees, the hosts of the show.

88
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: There had a toxic workplace for years outside the boundaries,

89
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: and you know, I talked about it radic behavior, as

90
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: I said, I said, it was just a huge, huge

91
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: issue there and probably.

92
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 4: Got to take some of it with a grain of

93
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 4: salt because I used to work on your live radio show.

94
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 4: There were there were good Ben Mallard days. There were

95
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 4: bad Ben Mallard days.

96
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: Isn't that everyone? I thought, that's how human beings operate, like,

97
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: is that not how they operate? Other people that never

98
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 1: have bad days, never have good days?

99
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 4: They Yeah, but you can microphones at people like fifty cent.

100
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: Oh they deserved it, you know, they deserve And so

101
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 1: the Stone story says that employees would make jokes about

102
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: killing themselves, oh God forbid. They'd refer to the guest

103
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: dressing rooms as crying rooms, as that's where they would

104
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: go to deal with their emotions.

105
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 4: Last week, I bought a dog and I named an emotion.

106
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: Is it possible, Jimmy Kimmel or Jimmy Jimmy Fallon. I

107
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 1: got my Jimmy's mixed up. You see what Jimmy, You've

108
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: seen them all, But Jimmy Fallon is it possible he's

109
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 1: the a hole or the people that work on his

110
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 1: show are so soft and so mentally weak that they

111
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,359
Speaker 1: can't handle. You know, they can't handle. But you know

112
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: who's the bad guys? Is it the people that are grumbling?

113
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: Or is Jimmy Fallon? Although I remember, is it Ellen DeGeneres.

114
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,479
Speaker 1: He sounds like the male Ellen degenerous. People used to

115
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 1: google on Ellen.

116
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 4: Her staff had the same exact complaints.

117
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: Yeah. Stephen King, Stephen King, legendary writer Stephen King. It

118
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: was revealed that his favorite song when he writes, he

119
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: plays one song. He said he had to stop recently

120
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 1: because his wife got upset. But this is also from

121
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: Rolling Stone. I guess all our news today is from

122
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: Rolling Stone. This is the horror writer. You know. We

123
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 1: want a thriller, you want to sci fi? That's your guy.

124
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: He revealed that back in the day, he used to

125
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: listen to one song and one song only on repeat

126
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 1: when he was writing, and the only reason he stopped

127
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: is because his wife was so pissed off she threatened

128
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 1: to divorce him because he kept listening that song. Let's

129
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: see if you remember Danny, Let's go back nineteen nineties

130
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: mambo number five. Remember that song?

131
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, of course, but why would he have that on repeat?

132
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: It makes no sense, I know, I don't know, but

133
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: that's that. He said, I had to dance mix, and

134
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: I played that thing until my wife said, yeah, one

135
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: more time, I'm going to f and leave. So he

136
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: liked the dance mix, and who knew that just resonated

137
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: with him. He's a big fan a little bit of

138
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: Erica exactly.

139
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 4: I would call myself after hearing that four times in

140
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 4: a row.

141
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: Well, here's a story that some people are saying is

142
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 1: a bombshell report. I don't think this is a bombshell report.

143
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: I need to let my wife know about this. So

144
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 1: there's a report that claims a Hollywood PR firm has

145
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:45,599
Speaker 1: purchased high scores on Rotten Tomatoes. Yeah. Yeah, and the

146
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: story indicated this is an industry wide problem. Hello. So

147
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 1: this is what I've always said. My wife runs to

148
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 1: the reviews for restaurants and movies and entertainment. She is

149
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: a huge fan of these views, and I've always said

150
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: they're bullshit, that it's people manipulating it, it's the matrix.

151
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,839
Speaker 1: You don't know what's real what's not real. And then

152
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 1: she'll be like well, the restaurants, they're not going to

153
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: spend they don't have the budget to buy reviews. I'm like, yeah,

154
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: well maybe maybe not. But a report from something called

155
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: Vulture says that a PR firm obscure often self published

156
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 1: critics who were part of a pool that they conspired together,

157
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: this network for Rotten Tomatoes. They paid them each fifty

158
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: dollars or more for a review of the film, a

159
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: positive review of the film. So and they got enough

160
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,199
Speaker 1: people that they were able to manipulate Rotten Tomatoes.

161
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why. Just go see it yourself. If you

162
00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 4: really want to see it, watch the trailer, watch multiple

163
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 4: trailers of movies, and just decide for yourself.

164
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 1: So fifty bucks, that's actually not that much fifty bucks

165
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 1: for I don't know how many people they had to

166
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: get to write a review, but probably a lot. But

167
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 1: still that's not for a big Hollywood PR company. That

168
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like it's that that big a deal. What

169
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 1: is next done? Pop goes the culture? Well, I'm sure

170
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 1: the people in the music business love this story. An

171
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: AI song has been submitted for a Grammy Award. How

172
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: great is that?

173
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 3: Boo?

174
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: That's just what we need. The box taking over ghostwriters.

175
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,839
Speaker 1: Heart on My Sleeve, the AI generated song mimicking Drake

176
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 1: and the Weekend has been submitted for a Grammy barbiton. Yeah,

177
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 1: I'm good on that. I don't know. I'm fine. Let's

178
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: see what is next year. Well, here's a story. I've

179
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 1: heard this in the past and it has happen again.

180
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 1: There's a guy named Herb Alpert spent his entire life

181
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: in the music business and eighty years in the music business.

182
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: And this guy talked about you know what it's like.

183
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 1: He was the co founder of A and M Records,

184
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: so he's a big time guy. And he got into

185
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: some detail about you know what it's like to be

186
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: in the music business and all that and the money.

187
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: Quote in this is the follow He talked about Mozart

188
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: and he named a bunch of other artists. He said,

189
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: all of us have only the same twelve notes. That's

190
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: it all. All the music is just combining together the

191
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: perfect mix of ingredients. But you're using the same the

192
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: same twelve notes. Yeah, it's kind of cool.

193
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, they country music even less. They say three chords

194
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 4: and a good story.

195
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 1: A good that story, right, you're supposed to do that.

196
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 4: Now nowadays They have all different kinds of stories in

197
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 4: that music, and they even have some hip hop beats

198
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 4: in country.

199
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: Now. Yeah, it makes those together. But the key is

200
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 1: like moving. You have to move this stuff around. It's

201
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: kind it. Yeah, yeah, absolutely so. So this wise always

202
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: blows me away when these these big lawsuits happen and

203
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: people get sued for stealing intellectual property, and it's like

204
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: you only have like twelve notes and how not that

205
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 1: people don't steal. I realize people steal.

206
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 4: I get it well. I think a lot of it too,

207
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 4: is subconsciously done.

208
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 1: You know.

209
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 4: That's why you and I we have the same routine

210
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 4: when you go into the studios. I bet you're not

211
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:48,079
Speaker 4: listening to sports talk radio. I don't do it either,

212
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 4: because when we get there, we want to kind of

213
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 4: be a clean slate. If you have voices in your

214
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 4: head of takes that you just heard, some of that

215
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 4: may come out of your mouth, even if you didn't

216
00:12:58,679 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 4: mean for it to happen.

217
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, you end up parroting what you hear. That's absolutely yeah.

218
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: I do not listen to sports radio. And there's people

219
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: I love that I work with, but I don't. I

220
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 1: try not to listen because I don't want to, you know,

221
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 1: just be the same, do the same thing they're doing.

222
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 1: I gotta do my own thing otherwise, Yeah, what's the point.

223
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: And if you're just gonna copy other people, that's new. Good.

224
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: Let's get to the mail bag. Why don't we do that?

225
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 1: What do you say, mail bag?

226
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, this isn't a copy of something on your

227
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 4: live show.

228
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: Not at all. This is original content. These are actual

229
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: letters from actual listener to the show. It's this bag.

230
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: We're gonna go rapid fire so we can get as

231
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: many of these emails on the air. We got a

232
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: big mail bag. I don't know if you know this, Danny.

233
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: I'm kind of a big deals Tom Lady would say

234
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 1: on television. So no, my ass feels so good right

235
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: right now?

236
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 4: Oh that means that you can pay me and your

237
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 4: staff double what you're paying at.

238
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 1: Oh sure, yeah, yeah wrong, Yeah, I've used all of

239
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: Looney's old Looney would say, oh, we do the radio

240
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: shays oh yo. We'd interview the Fox TV people, and

241
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: Looney'd be like, well, you know TV people, they're better

242
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 1: people because they're on television anyway. First one is from

243
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: Alf from the State Fair, says Ben. It's that time

244
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 1: of the year, at least here in New England county

245
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 1: fair time. Do you guys ever hit county or state farris?

246
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: And if so, what's your favorite food at these events?

247
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 1: That's question number one, so we'll get that one. Yeah.

248
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: I love I love going. I love the idea of

249
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: the county Fair. I'm a big fan. My wife hates them,

250
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 1: she says, I hate them. That's it's too hot, there's

251
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: too many people there, you know, you know, everything's expensive

252
00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: now and all of those things, all of those points

253
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: standing my wife has said, are absolutely true. Yet I

254
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: still romanticize going to the fair when I was a

255
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: kid and the excitement of seeing new stuff and new

256
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: foods and getting a corn dog the size of your

257
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: forearm and a pretzel the size of your head, deep

258
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: fried twinkies and all that. I love the idea of

259
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: all that, but yeah, the cost is insane, it's dirty,

260
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 1: that stuff's a pain in the ass. But overall, in

261
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 1: my head, I love the county Fair. I love the

262
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: County Fair. What about you did?

263
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, and working for radio stations my whole life, there

264
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 4: would be some pretty good acts performing on the main stage,

265
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 4: first come, first served seating as long as you bought

266
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 4: a ticket that evening to get into the county Fair.

267
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 4: I'll never forget the great Eddy Money performing at the

268
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 4: California Strawberry Festival. It's kind of like a county fair,

269
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 4: but it's all strawberry stuff and he's on the main stage.

270
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 4: And Beny wanted to show off that he was a local, right,

271
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 4: So he said, everybody out there supporting me tonight, you're

272
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 4: not fans, you're friends. In fact, I live in the area.

273
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 4: He lived in Westlake Village, but he said, you're all

274
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 4: friends of mine here in Camarillo.

275
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: Oh no, well, ladies and gentlemen.

276
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 4: The name of the city was Camillo. So we had

277
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 4: a great laugh about that. Lots of good live performances

278
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 4: over the years that I got to see. As far

279
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 4: as the food, you said it, man, the corn dog

280
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 4: has to be on top of the list.

281
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, big, big fan. So I saw a billboard for

282
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 1: Ed Sheeran performing at Yah Bah Bah. Is that the casino?

283
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 4: That is the casino?

284
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: Yeah? But isn't he's still in the prime of his

285
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: career or is he washed up now? I always thought

286
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,359
Speaker 1: to be Maybe I'm wrong in this, but I always

287
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: thought the people performing at casinos you know, have already

288
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 1: had their time and they're just trying to make a

289
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 1: little more money. And just you know, it's an easy

290
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 1: racket to go to the different casinos.

291
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 4: Tribes that have billions of dollars. That's why they're able

292
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,679
Speaker 4: to get superstar performers to play their music at some

293
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 4: of the casinos because they are filthy rich.

294
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, then I stand corrected. I was wrong.

295
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 1: I just assumed it because it used to be all

296
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 1: like washed up celebrities that would be in the casinos

297
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: around La, the tribal casinos around La. It would be

298
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 1: all those those steps. Question number two from Alfie says,

299
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,919
Speaker 1: does Danny even listen to all these dopey questions or

300
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 1: does he tune out like the Bennettes. Yeah, yeah, the

301
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 1: Bennettes do not. They do not. The paying attention part

302
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 1: of that is often a problem for the Bennettes. But no,

303
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:55,479
Speaker 1: you seem to pay attention.

304
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 4: You seem to pay Yeah, I'm engaged half the time.

305
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, Big Lou, he's on number two from the LBC.

306
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 1: I want to get that as a drop Danny from

307
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 1: that commercial. I love that anyway, Big Lou says on

308
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,160
Speaker 1: the TV show with looney, Will the Penny be tested

309

Speaker 1: any hashtag in an abundance of caution? Yeah, well, the

311
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 1: Penny has refused to get the vaccine and refuse to

312
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 1: do any of those countermeasures, So I'm not sure what's

313
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,159
Speaker 1: going to happen, Big Lou. Yeah, that would be a

314
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: nightmare if they bring back the mask mandate, Danny, I

315
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 1: don't want.

316
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 4: Let's really go back to the COVID days. What if

317
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 4: the Penny starts kneeling?

318
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that would be Yeah, that would be a nightmare.

319
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,159
Speaker 4: Holy crap, Front page news.

320
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:54,200
Speaker 1: You imagine on the TV show? You know? Oh God, Holrizing, Holarizing,

321
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 1: wild Man of Morgan Town back again. I guess he

322
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:00,199
Speaker 1: liked the last time he sent an email. He's is

323
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 1: with college football getting going the NFL here as well,

324
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: very excited. But I'd like to ask you guys, do

325
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: you follow high school football? I follow it more closely

326
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,680
Speaker 1: than college in the NFL. Also, I was wondering, did

327
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 1: you guys follow your high school teams when you were

328
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,159
Speaker 1: in high school? And what was your school mascot? So

329
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 1: his mascot was the Indians Ooh, that's taboo, but maybe

330
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,640
Speaker 1: not in Morgantown. So that's from wild Man Fantas show.

331
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 1: So yeah, I played football in high school, so I

332
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 1: clearly followed the high school team. When I was playing.

333
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 1: I went to a couple of high schools because I

334
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: had some issues, but I went to one that was

335
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:44,360
Speaker 1: the Vakeros and then another one that was the Trojans,

336
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 1: So that was my high school mascot. Fun, I don't

337
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 1: really follow high school football, to be honest with you.

338
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 1: I could lie and say I do, but I don't.

339
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: I mean, maybe occasionally end up in a high school

340
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 1: football game, but that's not really my jam. And I

341
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 1: know in some parts of the country though, it's massive,

342
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,360
Speaker 1: like it's a bigfor deal, Like you see these stadiums

343
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: in Texas and you're like, man, that's not a million dollar,

344
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 1: multimillion dollars stadiums for a high school football teams. Isn't

345
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 1: crazy to me? But that's my response. What about you, Danny.

346
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 4: The continuation school that I went to, I think our

347
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 4: mascot was the Spliff smoke weed every day. Prior to that,

348
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,120
Speaker 4: before the high school I was kicked out of, Bulldog

349
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 4: was our mascot. And the bulldog was on a leash.

350
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,439
Speaker 4: Certain cheerleaders would walk him to the middle of the field,

351
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 4: and one of the games he started biting on the

352
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 4: ankles of one of the cheerleadersferf.

353
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 1: That seems like a reasonable thing.

354
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, he was gnawing on her little skinny leg.

355
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 1: Yeah that's great. Well. Yeah, my continuation school did not

356
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: actually have a mascot, so they said, you're such losers.

357
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 1: You don't even get a mask at You're such a waste.

358
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 1: Nothing for you.

359
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 4: By the way, across the street from me here there's

360
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 4: a high school field. Go there sometimes to watch the

361
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:10,640
Speaker 4: kids play, and Agora High is where our middle kid

362
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:15,119
Speaker 4: played football in the field last season and was great

363
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 4: on special teams and defense. He laid some players out.

364
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 4: He was like a missile. He would lift himself off

365
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 4: the ground and rocket himself into the offensive player with

366
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:27,120
Speaker 4: the football.

367
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 1: Steve Atwater the Broncos or Chuck Cecil of the Tennessee Oilers,

368
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 1: Ronnie Lot like that kind of guy. Smash smash mouth.

369
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 1: Was it was it his senior year last year or

370
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 1: is he back?

371
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 4: It was, yeah, it was it was his one year.

372
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 4: He's a baseball player, but the football coaches convinced him

373
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 4: to play his senior year for football.

374
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 1: Oh cool.

375
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, so he had a great, great experience, and that

376
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 4: was really my first experience going to every single high

377
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 4: school football game, you know, as an adult, because unless

378
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 4: you got some skin in the game, why would you

379
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 4: be going over there unless you're a creep.

380
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. There's some people though, like you have to support,

381
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: you know, the neighborhood and all that and the community.

382
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:16,880
Speaker 4: In other parts of the country, I guess where there's

383
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,439
Speaker 4: psycho about high school football, It's not exactly like that

384
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 4: in California though.

385
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,400
Speaker 1: Now. The only time you get that vibe is if

386
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 1: like Lebron's kids are playing basketball, or there's some former

387
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 1: NFL players kid that happens to be playing high school. Yeah,

388
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,120
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, there's a bunch of people

389
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,239
Speaker 1: that want to show up because it's a celebrity and

390
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 1: the kid of a celebrity. Next up, well from let's

391
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 1: go Marcus from Bruceville in Eddie, Texas. I'm not sure

392
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: what the two of you guys think about each other,

393
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 1: but he says, when you and Rob Parker Ben got

394
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 1: together for an episode, we get to get it for

395
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,359
Speaker 1: an episode of anything. It's all great. Listen this past

396
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: or a recent I heard you on the Herd and

397
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl radio row guy. You got to show

398
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: you guys crushed it. Thanks for taking time to I

399
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,639
Speaker 1: love working with Rob. Rob's great. See. The thing about

400
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 1: Rob Marcus is me and Rob have the same principles

401
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 1: of doing sports radio, and not everyone has that perspective

402
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,160
Speaker 1: like me. And we like sports, but.

403
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 4: We like trolling fan bases.

404
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:33,399
Speaker 1: We like holding people accountable. We like holding people accountable,

405
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 1: and it's become a dying art. And you know, when

406
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 1: me and Rob are gone from radio, I don't know

407
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 1: that anyone will be like that. There's a lot of

408
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 1: cotton candy that's out there and there's not a lot

409
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 1: of criticism. And part of the problem is that many

410
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:54,679
Speaker 1: people today have been programmed to avoid complaining and the

411
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: belly aching and the denouncing and the disapproval and all

412
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: that stuff, and so they kind of look for pure

413
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:07,120
Speaker 1: sugar and chocolate and all that. But Rob and I

414
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 1: and you're around our age, Danny, we were raised media

415
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 1: was you know the tee you play. You played well,

416
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: they would say good things about you, but you didn't

417
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: play well. That was the better story. And that's how

418
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 1: I was taught, and Rob was a sports writer for

419
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 1: a million years, and that's you know, the mantra that

420
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 1: the better stories in the losing locker room is a

421
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:30,159
Speaker 1: sports writer's mantra, because that's where the emotion is. You

422
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 1: want to go where the emotion is. And when you win,

423
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: everyone kisses your ass, but when you lose, not so much.

424
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 4: Although you were really easy on the Chiefs Kadarius Tony

425
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,120
Speaker 4: the other day, Oh yeah, no.

426
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,879
Speaker 1: I didn't do that. My whole opening monologue saying that

427
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 1: Dan Campbell should have come out and given him a

428
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: game ball. That's what I would have done if I

429
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: was coaching the Lions, all right, boys, So we practiced

430
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 1: all off season and here we went through training camp

431
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 1: and the first game and Detroit Lions game ball go

432
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 1: to Kadarius Tony, Can someone run that over to the

433
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: Chief's locker room. Don't worry, he'll probably drop it anyway,

434
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,439
Speaker 1: so there's no no need to worry about it. But

435
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 1: I'm bumped, all right. Next up is Fred in Spring Texas.

436
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 1: Fred's a regular man, this guy. He is every week

437
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: he's got a question. God bless him. He says, congratulations

438
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 1: on the NBC gig. Ben I'm sure it will be

439
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 1: successful NBC. I know it's wild. I told one of

440
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 1: the executives at NBC. I said, you know, you guys

441
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: had Johnny Carson, you had Leno, you had Bob Costas,

442
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 1: and now me, who doesn't belong in. That's who's in.

443
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:42,680
Speaker 1: And then Tom Looney also.

444
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 4: Man Bob Costas.

445
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, clearly, so, Fred writes, and he says, will this

446
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,480

Speaker 1: believe you have any open spots on your schedule.

449
00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 4: Go back to yesterday's podcast.

450
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is how you're going to fit that in. Yeah, yeah,

451
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: we went through it. Yeah, Danny enjoyed my you know,

452
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:10,160
Speaker 1: thirty minute rant about my schedule and my crackhead hours

453
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,679
Speaker 1: that I now have. Oh it's a little crazy.

454
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:20,679
Speaker 4: Wow, oh my.

455
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's a good problem to have. So yeah,

456
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not like paving roads. I always get

457
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 1: a kick out of people Danny that send us messages

458
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: and they're like, man, you guys, you know you work

459
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: so hard, and I'm like, these people are paving roads,

460
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 1: are doing construction, they're doing like heavy lifting. I mean,

461
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 1: our job The problem with our job is very mentally draining,

462
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 1: not physically draining. But for me, at the end of

463
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 1: the week, I don't want to hear myself talk. I

464
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 1: don't want to think about a sports take. I don't

465
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 1: want you know what I mean. I just want to

466
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 1: zone out. I go to the beach during the summer

467
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: and I just sit there. There's no cell phone reception.

468
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 1: I look at the water and I just kind of

469
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 1: can press and I say, for the next hour and

470
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,680
Speaker 1: a half, I got nothing, and I'm good, And I'll

471
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: reset the old engine and the battery and all that.

472
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:09,680
Speaker 1: I'll be good to go.

473
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 4: Just give me some drugs and a TV remote.

474
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 1: Hookers and cocaine. That's all you need, right, A bunch

475
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: of hookers and cocaine, sex, drugs and rock and roll.

476
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,400
Speaker 1: I guess that would be the Mike and Fullerton writes

477
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 1: in on the mailbag. We do a few more. Mike

478
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 1: and Fullerton says, season greetings, Ben and Danny, is it season?

479
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 4: Greed?

480
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:33,680
Speaker 1: Costco does have Christmas stuff up.

481
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 4: So maybe I've seen some pumpkin crap sitting outside of

482
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 4: stores the past couple of weeks.

483
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 1: So yeah, my wife's she loves Halloween. We had the

484
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 1: Halloween party last year. We're not doing it this year

485
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 1: because because it kind of took away from the Christmas party.

486
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 1: Because people that went to the Halloween party are like, well,

487
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,159
Speaker 1: we don't need to go to the Christmas party. You're

488
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 1: Halloween party. So we want to just do one big party.

489
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 1: So probably do a Christmas party.

490
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,919
Speaker 4: All the witches come out right now, they post online.

491
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 4: I wish it was Halloween all year long. Witch.

492
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, well my wife was Halloween. So much like every

493
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 1: time we go to Boston, she has to go to Salem,

494
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,679
Speaker 1: right the whole Witch's trial thing. The whole town is

495
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 1: based on the witches. The police cars have witches on them,

496
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 1: and Salem it's it's Salem mass That's great. So anyway,

497
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: Mike says Ben, how worried are you that the Penny

498
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,159
Speaker 1: brings its a game this year? Do you think it

499
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,920
Speaker 1: would help or hurt? The ratings of the Penny dominated

500
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 1: the season. So I thought about that, Mike, because I

501
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 1: have some skin in the game on this and the

502
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 1: way I look at this one, if the Penny crushes it,

503
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: that's a great story because then we can point out, hey,

504
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: we've got this TV show and an adamant object is

505
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: hitting at sixty percent, winners in the NFL be great.

506
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 1: So I have no problem with that. Now. I don't

507
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: want to get crushed. I don't want to get killed

508
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 1: on this. And then he says, Danny, g have you

509
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: you've seen the penny? Right? Can you confirm or deny

510
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 1: if it is or even has been a quarter? I've

511
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: heard rumors. I just want to know the truth. He's

512
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 1: in pursuit of the truth, Mike and Fullerton. Danny, he

513
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 1: needs the truth.

514
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 4: Well, I can tell you that I still have the

515
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 4: penny that we used all last season, and remember I

516
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 4: even used it for a flip to see if we

517
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 4: were going to do Popko's Culture or not last Saturday.

518
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 4: I have that penny right here on my home desk.

519
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 4: And this is the og penny that came out of

520
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 4: the FSR studios. Kooper Loop gave me this penny. Hey,

521
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 4: so Ben, this has been following you around the past

522
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 4: couple of years. Everybody else who says that they're a

523
00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 4: penny or they have a penny, I think is bullshit.

524
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: And that's because Danny, you're a Mitch right, You're a

525
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 1: person of integrity, You're a person of honor, and there's

526
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 1: some there's some sham artist people out there, but you're

527
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 1: not like that. You're not some foolish person.

528
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 4: And I say this in the kindest way, but Looney

529
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 4: is a fraud.

530
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 1: Wow. And that penny, Danny, if this show becomes a hit,

531
00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 1: Benny versus the penny that is the final penny before

532
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 1: the TV show. Yeah, you know how much you could

533
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 1: sell that for when.

534
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 4: You guys get canceled halfway through the season. This penny

535
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 4: is going to make a comeback. It's going to be

536
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 4: sought after.

537
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, by week nine, we'll be all listen. I never

538
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 1: did the TV show. It was all a lie. I

539
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,479
Speaker 1: have made the whole whole thing up. It was all

540
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 1: a gag. Never broadcast on television. But it's back on

541
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: the podcast every Friday. There you go, votified. Goodness.

542
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 4: All right, I'm gonna have to rework my contract like

543
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,719
Speaker 4: Chris Jones in order to return ever to the penny.

544
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess got some money here. Ron. Next up,

545
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 1: Jennifer in Richmond, Virginia. But she's moving. She's heading to

546
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 1: Saint Louis, Misserve. She loves that toasted Ravioli so much.

547
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 1: He's going to Saint Louis. But I hope that's for good,

548
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: good things, Jennifer. I hope you're moving because of a

549
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 1: cool job or family or something.

550
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 4: Like that, Saint Louis, or to be closer to her kid.

551
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 1: Well kids in Minnesota, it is closer to the kid.

552
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 1: Maybe she loves the arch.

553
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, I want to live near the arch and move

554
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 4: closer to a McDonald's.

555
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,480
Speaker 1: Here you go. Eh, that's a good point, she says.

556
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 1: Ben and Danny g holy moly, congratulations on the new

557
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 1: side gig. Ben, did you feel like you were an

558
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: episode of Curb your Enthusiasm when you had those meetings

559
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 1: with the NBC executives? And, as she says, Danny, congratulations

560
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 1: on the baby boy. What's something that surprised you so

561
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 1: far about being a new dad to a new born?

562
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: So what you think about that, Danny? That is a

563
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 1: great point by Jennifer. And I'm not gonna sit here

564
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 1: and pretend like I did not, for a stretch think

565
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:23,360
Speaker 1: that I had. They call it impostor syndrome where you're

566
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 1: like I don't belong here, you know that whole thing.

567
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: I think we've all had that at some point in

568
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: our lives. But I definitely had the imposter syndrome and

569
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 1: just like driving into Universal Studios to do a TV shows,

570
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 1: but it's ridiculous to me, It's so stupid. I don't

571
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: belong there, but it's it's crazy. So, yeah, that's a

572
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 1: great question by you, Jennifer. And let us know why

573
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 1: you're going to Saint Louis. I'm curious why you move

574
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: from Virginia to Saint Louis. I'm sure there's a great reason.

575
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:51,440
Speaker 1: I'd love to hear it.

576
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 4: It better not be for a dude, because you can't

577
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 4: be cheating on us.

578
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, Jennifer, you're not. I mean, come on,

579
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 1: we're podcasts. You can't, right, Danny, And then we'll all

580
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 1: get along here. Yeah, So answer her question if she

581
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 1: wants to know, Like, what's really blown you away here

582
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 1: by being a father?

583
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 4: Now, as I was listening to your answer, it's kind

584
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 4: of the same thing. Can you have imposter syndrome when

585
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 4: you have a little baby for the first time? Because

586
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 4: it still doesn't seem real. It's weird. I was shaving

587
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 4: the other day before getting on the road to go

588
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 4: to Coveno and Rich and I forgot that there was

589
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 4: a baby sleeping in our bed. You know, I thought

590
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,959
Speaker 4: the baby was downstairs. I guess my wife had put

591
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 4: him up in the big bed. He was like a

592
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 4: prince in the middle of the big, king size bed,

593
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 4: and I had no idea. So I'm shaving and I'm

594
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 4: thinking about stuff for the radio show, and all of

595
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 4: a sudden, I hear some grunting and a noise and

596
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 4: it scared me. And I look over and there's a

597
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 4: baby in the bed, and I was like, holy shit.

598
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 4: For a few minutes, I forgot I had a baby.

599
00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you gotta be man, I would be so

600
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 1: fricking paranoid. Yeah, because because the other and you hear

601
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: these stories and you feel bad for these people that

602
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,400
Speaker 1: people like forget their kids are in the car, you know,

603
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 1: the new kids, because and then it gets hot and

604
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: bad crap happens and all that. So yeah, how.

605
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 4: About people who roll over on their kid, well, in

606
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 4: their bed. I'm terrified of things like that. So now

607
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 4: I'm sleeping with one eye open.

608
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well there's that and the ex girlfriend from back

609
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 1: in the day. Also, it's like a double double whammy

610
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,759
Speaker 1: situation on that. Ozziewah was right saying from what kid

611
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 1: with me? Yeah, from from Western Australia, says hot my

Speaker 1: gig Benny versus the Penny Band. But I am going

614
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: to be selfish as I do put some money on

615
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,359
Speaker 1: games during the season, and there was a podcast that

616
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,799
Speaker 1: I would listen to to gauge some of picks. Some

617
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 1: of my picks on uh, some I liked and some

618
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,320
Speaker 1: I did not. So my question is how do I

619
00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 1: now get to see the show. I have to find

620
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 1: some back for a channel I guess backwards channel to

621
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 1: be able to watch it in Australia.

622
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 4: I have no idea he wants a Russian website to

623
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:11,280
Speaker 4: see the show.

624
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,240
Speaker 1: That would be wrong, you know. I don't do that, Danny.

625
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 1: I know that was a gag on the show, but

626
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 1: I don't know it's on Roku tv. Is Roku TV

627
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: on internationally? I don't know that it is probably not.

628
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 1: I think it's an American product. I'm not sure how

629
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,439
Speaker 1: you would watch it. That's a great question. I could

630
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:36,279
Speaker 1: ask some of the people at the network if they know.

631
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:40,320
Speaker 4: Do you know if any of the episodes after they're old,

632
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 4: will they be on YouTube?

633
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:42,959
Speaker 3: Yeah?

634
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 1: I'm not sure what the plan is the meetings I had,

635
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 1: they had mentioned the Peacock, which is the streaming service,

636
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 1: which I don't think is available. Why would it be.

637
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:54,360
Speaker 1: He's the National Broadcasting Company, it's not the Australian Broadcasting Company,

638
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 1: so I'm not positive. I would hope certain people would

639
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: record it and you know, to put it on YouTube.

640
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:06,240
Speaker 4: That's what I'm thinking, because people outside of our area

641
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 4: might be able to go to YouTube.

642
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:11,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, YouTube for sure. If somebody puts it up there.

643
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 4: He's not going to help him as he needs to

644
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:14,439
Speaker 4: study for gambling money though.

645
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you surfer around. There are and I cannot

646
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,240
Speaker 1: endorse you so now that I work at that other company.

647
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,880
Speaker 1: But there are certain websites that may or may not

648
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:29,840
Speaker 1: be ethical, that may or may not have all cable

649
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 1: channels streaming, and you may or may not be able

650
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:38,040
Speaker 1: to watch those channels whenever you want. So take around

651
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: a little bit. You'll find it if you really want,

652
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,640
Speaker 1: If you spend enough time on the Google, you'll find

653
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:45,759
Speaker 1: it out in the outback.

654
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 4: I didn't hear anything.

655
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:50,880
Speaker 1: He just said, I see nothing. I hear nothing, I

656
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:54,839
Speaker 1: know nothing. A quick question from Amish from Columbus. He says,

657
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 1: what NFL stadium do you want to visit that you

658
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 1: haven't visited? And yeah, he says, hit for him is

659
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 1: lambeau Field. I have not seen a game at Lambeofield,

660
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 1: but I did. My brother lives near Green Bay, so

661
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 1: I went to lambeau Field for the first time. Last year.

662
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,239
Speaker 1: Was last year amazing. I'm just I didn't even go

663
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 1: to games. The whole fact that you're in this small

664
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 1: little town in northern Wisconsin with it's just like a

665
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 1: regular suburban neighborhood in a small town, and then all

666
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 1: of a sudden there's this monstrosity, lambeau Field, the iconic Lambeaufield,

667
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 1: and you just imagine how fricking cold it is and

668
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,719
Speaker 1: how nasty and all that. So it's that's kind of cool.

669
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 1: Any stadium you want to go to, Daanty.

670
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 4: I would love to go to the Polo Grounds.

671
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:44,760
Speaker 1: Let me know how that goes.

672
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 4: Seattle. Every time they show The Twelfth Man in that

673
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:53,960
Speaker 4: big old stadium there with the roof mostly open, I

674
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,760
Speaker 4: guess it is open, but it's got like the wings.

675
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,760
Speaker 1: So they have no I of course. Famously, in twenty nineteen,

676
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,480
Speaker 1: flew to Seattle for a Mala meat greet. The Seahawks

677
00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:05,840
Speaker 1: were playing the forty nine ers. The Seahawks would not

678
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 1: allow me in the stadium, so very kind of them.

679
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,920
Speaker 1: But I need to stand outside the stadium and they

680
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,359
Speaker 1: heart organization. Yeah. So what they have, Danny, is they

681
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 1: have over this the crowd. Since it rains all the

682
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,160
Speaker 1: time in Seattle, they have the crowd is covered, but

683
00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: the field is open. So what happens is it's like

684
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 1: the echo chamber. The noise of the fans bounces around

685
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,560
Speaker 1: and then comes back out onto the field. So it's

686
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 1: it's actually louder there than it is in dome stadiums

687
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 1: because of the echo effect.

688
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 4: See that's really cool. I would like to go see

689
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 4: my Raiders beat the Seahawks like they did with that

690
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 4: Josh Jacobs walk off run last year.

691
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 1: Well you can do that, Danny. It's called the video game,

692
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:50,360
Speaker 1: and that's how the Raiders are going to beat the

693
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 1: Seahawks on a video game.

694
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:55,440
Speaker 4: So well off to wait until they get back on

695
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:56,720
Speaker 4: their schedule together again.

696
00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:00,759
Speaker 1: Robin Lincoln, Nebraska says been and Danny, g do you

697
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 1: guys like the Costco street taco kit other night? We

698
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,440
Speaker 1: had it? Not enough for a family of four. No,

699
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 1: I have not had the Costco street tacer kit because

700
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:16,720
Speaker 1: I only like gringo tacos. Rob I like the crunchy taco.

701
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 1: My Mexican friends tell me my friends from South America say,

702
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,880
Speaker 1: that's the gringo talker taco. My old friend Alex, he

703
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 1: passed away a couple years ago, but he always used

704
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:29,800
Speaker 1: to He used to bust my chops about that. Danny,

705
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 1: have you attempted the fate with the Costco street taco kit?

706
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 4: We have? It's pretty good. There's a nice green sauce

707
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 4: in there and yellow corn tortillas. Put those on the

708
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,200
Speaker 4: grill for a little bit and heat them up on

709
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 4: both sides.

710
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:49,800
Speaker 1: Delicious. Last one, Nick in Wisconsin says Ben and Danny,

711
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,640
Speaker 1: hope you're all doing well. Ben, I cannot wait to

712
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:56,920
Speaker 1: support the new show. Well, thank you, God, bless you. Sorry, Danny,

713
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 1: you're no longer the penny question. Please would you rather

714
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 1: I guess you, Danny, would you rather lose all your

715
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:05,800
Speaker 1: teeth like weed Man or all of your hair like Ben?

716
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:07,440
Speaker 1: That's not very nice.

717
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 4: Look at head wraps hats. You could be fashionable, no teeth.

718
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 4: You could sound like the late great Genie in Medford.

719
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:20,400
Speaker 1: Oh that isn't funny.

720
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:22,400
Speaker 4: So I think you know the answer.

721
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:25,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And I do have hair, just not in

722
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 1: certain spots, you know, like on the top there it's

723
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:31,080
Speaker 1: a little little gun I've I guess called to sack,

724
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,360
Speaker 1: but I've cut my hair so short now it I

725
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,279
Speaker 1: don't think you can tell. It just looks like I

726
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 1: shaved my my dome.

727
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 4: Are you going to do hats all year on the

728
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:41,680
Speaker 4: TV show?

729
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,279
Speaker 1: Oh? Absolutely, yeah, I'm a hat guy.

730
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 4: Are you gonna do dress hats all year?

731
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,800
Speaker 1: Yeah? Because I think there's an issue with logos and stuff,

732
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 1: and I don't want to deal with the bull crap.

733
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 1: You know, if you wear certain hats, they get upset

734
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,440
Speaker 1: and there's all you know, how it is like a

735
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 1: legal department and stuff, you know, And so I swear and.

736
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 4: They have to put like tape over the logo.

737
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,799
Speaker 1: And just to be clear here, I mean, they pick

738
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,359
Speaker 1: out what I wear. I don't have. I told them

739
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 1: I said, I don't. I just want to wear a hat.

740
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: Get a little self conscious on that, and then they said, sure,

741
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,799
Speaker 1: no problem whatever. And so there's a certain outfit they

742
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 1: want me to wear, and so I'm gonna wear it,

743
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,920
Speaker 1: and you know, fine, So it's crazy data to work

744
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:24,840
Speaker 1: at a place that has like a wardrobe budget and

745
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:29,239
Speaker 1: expense budget. These are things I don't get in radio. Think.

746
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,919
Speaker 1: I bet, I think one time I've I've filled something

747
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:33,759
Speaker 1: out and when I filled it out, I got a

748
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 1: guilt trip for filling out the expense report. Like, what

749
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 1: are you doing? You should just spend your own money

750
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,600
Speaker 1: on that? You know, Well, no, you're a big company.

751
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,440
Speaker 1: You can afford that. And we'll get out. It's NFL,

752
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: you know, I know what you're doing. I know what

753
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:49,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be doing. I might go to the Charger game. Possibly,

754
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,080
Speaker 1: I don't know. It depends on some things that have

755
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 1: to break the right way. So we'll see about that.

756
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,240
Speaker 1: But either I'll be watching football sitting on my couch,

757
00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 1: or I'll be going to a game, and then I'll

758
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 1: still be watching on my laptop.

759
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:04,799
Speaker 4: Danny, Let's see how your memory is. Did you pick

760
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 4: the Raiders or the Broncos And what did the penny say?

761
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, so in that game, I took the Raiders in

762
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 1: the game. I do not remember what the penny picked

763
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,279
Speaker 1: in that game, but I took the Raiders. That's not

764
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,600
Speaker 1: a popular pick, Danny, because they people seem convinced that

765
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:25,320
Speaker 1: Sean Payton is. Yeah, I'm like, I don't know about

766
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 1: that football. God just ask him and he will tell you.

767
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:34,520
Speaker 1: But don't kiss any babies. I kiss any babies. Enjoy

768
00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 1: the Raiders game. I'll I'm not gonna I think the

769
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,279
Speaker 1: Rams are gonna be terrible. I'll check the Rams game out.

770
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:42,959
Speaker 1: I hope they don't lose by thirty points. I actually

771
