And there's nothing you 511 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 1: driving around, there's nothing you can do. You're completely helpless 512 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: in that situation. That's it. I actually have a mystery 513 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: box somewhere in my garage here day of the Ben 514 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: and Dave Krt the song Ben and Dave and all 515 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: these drops from the Ben and Dave show. When they 516 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: and they got rid of the show, I kept him. Unfortunately, 517 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: there's really no way to play any of that stuff. 518 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,640 Speaker 4: Remember I was having dinner on the Queen Mary one 519 00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 4: night in lum Beach, so I was on a date 520 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 4: and there was a live band there, and then they 521 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 4: came over. One of the guys was a big fan 522 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 4: of the Ben and Dame show, and I said, hey, 523 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 4: put together. That's how the song got put together. He 524 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 4: made a recording for us with his band. 525 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 1: That was great. No, that was I love the song. 526 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 2: It was. 527 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:13,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, I wish we could play it if I had. 528 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 1: If I had it on something other than a cart machine, 529 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 1: I would I would like all old technology. Another bit 530 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: that we did in those days. Remember when we got 531 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 1: picked up by a limo in Sherman Oaks Dave and 532 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,880 Speaker 1: driven out to like San Bernardino or something. We were 533 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: Professional wrestling was a wrestling match, Yeah, professional wrestling. I 534 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: did not know this, but the ww I think it 535 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 1: was called the WWF. Still, then they have a main 536 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 1: card and then they have the undercard. The undercards that 537 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 1: got a minor league ballpark or something like that. The 538 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: main we were doing the minor card the B card, 539 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: and we were both celebrity managers at this event. And 540 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 1: there's a couple of things I fondly remember about that night. 541 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 1: Dave the very long limo drive to get out there, 542 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 1: because it seemed like it took forever. 543 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 3: It was in Where was that that was a long 544 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,360 Speaker 3: way out? It was a minor league ballpark. 545 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:10,400 Speaker 1: Might have been Rancho Kuckamonger or someone like Elson Elson. Yes, 546 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: Lake event basically northern San Diego. So we do all 547 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 1: out there and I was the manager of the headshrinkers. 548 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 1: Who are you the manager of?

Eventually we found 644 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: out that one of the update guys, who was upset 645 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: he didn't go to the House of Blues, was smoking 646 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,959 Speaker 1: a cigarette and dropped it in a trash can and 647 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: lit the trash can on fire and Dave. The story 648 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: is this came within a couple of minutes of turning 649 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 1: all of the sprinkler system on on the floor, which 650 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 1: would have ruined Dave. All of that radio equipment would 651 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 1: have I mean, would have destroyed the entire floor would 652 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: have been plunded with water because this guy was smoking 653 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: a cigarette on the eighth floor and threw it in 654 00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: a trash can and a fire. 655 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:04,719 Speaker 4: So that is fun. You remember the time of some 656 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 4: of the best advice I've ever gotten radio. When I 657 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 4: first started, the boss said, always assume the mic is on, 658 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 4: even if you're in a commercial. If you're in front 659 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 4: of a mic, always assume it's on. So I was 660 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 4: driving to work one night, Big Joe McDonald, the Big 661 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 4: Nasty was. 662 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 3: On before us man. Remember that. 663 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, during a commercial break, somebody left the mic 664 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 4: on and he started cursing and f bom m F. 665 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 4: First he was screaming at somebody. It's the most foul 666 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 4: language I've ever heard. For around five minutes straight, all 667 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 4: of it came out over the radio. 668 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: That's great that I also recall. Remember the Soup Nazi 669 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 1: guy from Seinfeld. Yes, he had a cigar He had 670 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 1: a cigar show. He taped it on. It was on 671 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: the weekends and we went in there. We did the 672 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 1: morning show on Saturday, so sometimes we'd go into the studio. 673 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: We usually did remotes. So you remember that there was 674 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: so much cigar. You're not supposed to smoke on that floor. 675 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: Those guys were sitting around smoking cigars, having a great 676 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 1: time living the dream man that they on on Saturday. 677 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: And they also they had all the they were cleaning 678 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 1: the office. I remember the whole building was wide open. 679 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 1: Remember at night when they would be cleaning the offices. 680 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: You go around and check it out. I mean, there's 681 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 1: so many great stories to tell, and this is just 682 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: scratching the surface. The majority again, the majority of the 683 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: stories are on your podcast, Dave.
