00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: them either, like you could tell the young ones like

113

114
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 1: them when they hit thirty and forty. But those are

115
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,160
Speaker 1: the d ones, those are the ones you want to

116
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: keep an eye on. But such as Schmuck, I see,

117
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: I like a little more cushion for the pushing. So

118
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm good, not always, though I don't. I

00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: A new report claims the smell of this makes people

124
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 1: act more pleasantly towards one another. What is it, Perfumer cologne.

125
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: It's coffee. Actually, wow, coffee. I've never had a cup

126
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: of coffee. I don't mind the smell of coffee, but

127
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 1: I don't it doesn't make me pleasant. People at coffee

128
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 1: shops are just nice and mellow. And of families say

129
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: they argue about this more than anything else. Right now,

130
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: what is politics? Internet usage on the WiFi too much,

131
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: You're playing too many video games on the internet, You're

132
00:07:56,440 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 1: watching too many movies et center. About of the Americans

133
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: say this is their favorite thing about the winter. The attire. No,

134
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 1: the snow, not snow related. It's the warm, fuzzy socks

135
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: you wear. Okay, so was the tire. Yeah, Well, my

136
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: my brother lives in New York. He's lived there for many,

137
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: many years, and when I first went back to visit him,

138
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: it was kind of the wintertime. He said, the most

139
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 1: important thing, he said, listen to me. He said, you

140
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: listen to me. Bad brother Joe, He said, you listen.

141

Speaker 1: We you gonna have these socks, these wool socks. Al Right,

142
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter how cold is, you got these wool socks.

143
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: You're good. And he was right. I mean, it's the

144
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,319
Speaker 1: socks of the key, keep your feet warm. You're good

145
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: to go, yeah, we don't have to worry about that.

146
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 1: And I don't know. I you get people in southern California,

147
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:53,640

149
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 1: don't well, it's all souls beyond me. Stereotype giscount. Then

150
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: I'll stereotype that there's a lot of winter fashion that

151
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 1: you cannot wear in California because it's not appropriate. So

152
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: you then you try to morph it into fit. You know,

153

00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 1: I have no. Well, actually that's not technically true. I

174
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: was driving through from Buffalo down to in the middle

175
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 1: of New York, from Buffalo down to New York City,

176
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: um and and uh anyways, the weather was terribles, a

177
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: big storm, like a lake driven storm, and I could

178
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 1: not see. There was so much water on the road.

179
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 1: I couldn't see in front or behind. I saw. I

180
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,480
Speaker 1: could barely see some some red lights like the cars

181
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,839
Speaker 1: were stopped. I literally stopped on the New York exp

182
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: Us Way because the rain was so horrific. I couldn't

183
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: see anything. And I know you're not supposed to do that,

184
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 1: but I I'm here to talk about it. So I survived.

185
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 1: You know. Now, have you ever prayed while you're on

186
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: a fight? Um? Yeah, you know with turbinus. Yeah, I've

187
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 1: had so. Yeah, I don't know. I usually want to

188
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: go on a flight I come to terms with I

189
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 1: might not make it off the flight going in, I'm like,

190
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 1: this could be the end, you know, Um hey, goodbye,

191
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 1: my weird ghoulish way of looking at that. So yeah,

192
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 1: I would I go on the flat I think, well,

193
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 1: this could be the end of it, you know, this

194
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: would be the game over. But uh, yeah, when when

195
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: I've only had turbans a few times where it's really nasty,

196
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: I've never been on that, like like flight from Denver

197
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,199
Speaker 1: to Hawaii where the engine blew up. I've never been

198
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: on something for four minutes in. Well, they're lucky it

199
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 1: was four minutes in and not over the Pacific. What

200
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: are they gonna imagine if they were halfway to Hawaii

201
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: from California and what do they do? Then? Yeah, I

202
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 1: guess there are some islands out there we don't know about,

203
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,679
Speaker 1: but I'm pretty sure there's not runways from now a

204
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 1: jumbo jet to land on out in the middle of

205
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 1: the Pacific. Unbelievable. What I'm a pilot with. He probably

206
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 1: knows what they would do in that situation. Does water landing? Like? Uh,

207
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: that guy's sunny, right, you should You should reach out

208
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 1: to him panhandled for another hat to while you're at it.

209
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: What's great hat by that's in the top five hats

210

212
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,440
Speaker 1: all right. The average man uses two of these at home,

00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: but the average woman uses four. What is these at home? Yeah?

215
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 1: Why not? Well, some guys no shave. Uh the answer

216
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: is pillows. M hmm yeah, how many pillows to use? Four?

217
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 1: Your so you're more like the more like the ladies. Well,

00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 1: I have two bigger pillows and I have two smaller ones.

219
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: And then during the course of summertime, when it gets

220
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,679
Speaker 1: really hot and I wake up in the middle of

221
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 1: the night, I have to grab the next closest and

224
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: So you do have to rotate them. And I I

225
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: am more of the pillow fiend than the wife. I

226
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 1: use pillows more. How many have I like to be

227
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:34,319
Speaker 1: surrounded by pillows? I have I know three four something.

228
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,280

Speaker 1: Valls fan Jimmy and Fayetteville, Tennessee has been Have you

289
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: ever stayed at the Cecil Hotel and do you have

290
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 1: any plans? When they reopened in October, I didn't know

291
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: they were reopening. I thought they were permanently closed. The

292
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: see show now. For those who don't know, the Cecil

293
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 1: Hotel is a legendary hotel on skid Row in l

294
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 1: A where many people have met their demise. This goes

295
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 1: back to like the twenties, like this old Hollywood, early

296
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: l A history, Uh, where you know, people would commit

297
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,640
Speaker 1: suicide and they would be murder and it was horrible.

298
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,679
Speaker 1: And they've done documentaries about this and they've been stories

299
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 1: written about it, and uh, like a bunch of people

300
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:25,560

301
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,399
Speaker 1: I generally try to avoid that area. There is a

302
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,840

303
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 1: hotel Cecil that I will go to from time to time.

304
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 1: And um, but that's that's about it. I mean it really,

305
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 1: I'm guessing it's different now. Last time I was there,

306
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 1: actually I went to the World's coolest or oldest or

307
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:49,120
Speaker 1: whatever bookstore, biggest bookstore, and uh, it's right near skid Row,

308
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 1: and skid Row had moved. Like there was a point

309
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 1: of demarcation where like it was like you're in l A.

310
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:54,640
Speaker 1: It was downtown l A. It was kind of nice,

311
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 1: and then you crossed the street and it's the hard

312
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 1: scrabble streets and but yeah, the hotel's right right in

313
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 1: that area. You you go down that area, guess you've

314
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,400
Speaker 1: been to the hotel Cecil. You want me to book

315
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 1: your room there. I have driven by their a handful

316
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,680
Speaker 1: of occasions, but I did because the chief used to

317
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 1: work down there at Parker Center downtown l A. So yes,

318
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,439
Speaker 1: it is. It is fascinating the streets that you drive

319
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 1: down and you don't want to drive down in l A.

320
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 1: It is Uh, yeah, I did something pretty delicate. Especially, Yeah,

321
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 1: the place that is Coals by the way, that's the

322
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 1: the French dip place. If you're in l A. It's

323
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 1: right there on Sixth Street and just like a couple

324
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: of steps away from there is the start of what

325
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,360
Speaker 1: what used to be the start of skid Row. Yeah,

326
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 1: there's a speak easy attached to that too. Yeah, yeah,

327
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: there's a speech is speakeasy. And that's a famous building.

328
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 1: That building. Uh well, I'm I'm having a blank here,

329
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: but that's that's a building where in the early days

330
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,679
Speaker 1: of l A. Um there's something something famous happened in

331
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 1: that build. I forget what, but I'm having a mental

332
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 1: block here. You know, the Edison, the Edison Factory was

333
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 1: a couple of blocks down to right. Uh yeah, I

334
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: mean that was the that was the meat of downtown

335
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: l A. That was the main point there. So isn't

336
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:17,880
Speaker 1: I think it's a main street? Is that the point

337
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 1: of demarcation for skid Row? Is that? I think it is? Right? Yeah.

338
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 1: If you go eastbound on on the ten Freeway, you

339
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 1: get off on San Pedro Street and then you get

340
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: to Maine and it's uh yeah, So it causes on

341
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 1: the coals. Is not that it really matters if you're

342
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,159
Speaker 1: not in California, l A. But Coles is on the

343
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:42,120
Speaker 1: corner of sixth Street and in Maine, which is right there.

344
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 1: That's like the point, it all goes sideways. But I've

345
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 1: never been to the c SO hoteling like I'm good

346
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,120
Speaker 1: on that. Chris and Iowa writes, and he says, if

347
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 1: you could interview anyone in the world for your podcast,

348
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: who would it be President Trump? For you? For sure?

349
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,639
Speaker 1: I'd put Trump on. Sure, Yeah, I put Trump on

350
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 1: because half the people would be freaked out. Elon Musk

351
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 1: would be a lot of fun. Elon Musk would be good. Uh,

352
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,399
Speaker 1: you know, I just think Joe Rogan would be interesting.

353
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 1: He does a bunch of podcast to Howard Stern. You know,

354
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 1: so you can't have Russia on now, unfortunately, but you

355
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: know some people I listened to back in the day

356
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,919
Speaker 1: on radio would be would be neat to have on.

357
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: Do we need to up our game here? Chris and Iowa?

358
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: Are you want to recommend some some bigger names here?

359
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 1: And you're not satisfied with the quality of the conversations

360
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,440
Speaker 1: we have on our Friday podcast? Can't in Colorado writes

361
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 1: in on the mail Bag. He says, what kind of

362
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,680
Speaker 1: crazy world are we living in where a twenty two

363
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 1: year old wannabe gets a fourteen year Mega deal and

364
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,360
Speaker 1: a Hall of Famer Johnny Bench has to not has

365
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 1: to hawk his memorable here to pay bills. It's not

366
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: happy with the Fernando Dutis Jr. Contract with the projects. Well,

367
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 1: I can't listen. This is the way life works, right.

368
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 1: Uh you know, if if Johnny bench had been born

369
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,640
Speaker 1: and lived the same life, you know, years later, then

370
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: he would be the one getting the three million dollar contract.

371
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 1: But he wasn't, and he lived in a different ages.

372
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 1: His salad days when a different age, and that's just

373
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 1: how it works. So yeah, I mean it's it's actually

374
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 1: fortunate that Johnny benchkin hawk his memorabilia and be able

375
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 1: to pay his bills and all that. And Pete Rose

376
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 1: still can sign a million autographs and the value of

377
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: Pete rose autograph isn't worth much because he signed everything. Uhmas.

378
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 1: When I was a kid, there was a picture Hall

379
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:34,400
Speaker 1: of Fame picture Bob Feller, and Bob Feller was in Cleveland,

380
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: Indians guy, and he would sign everything too, but only

381
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 1: autograph shows. And so his autograph by the time he

382
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: passed away was it was not worth much anything because

383
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 1: he signed everything. Alright, Adrian in the Mile High City

384
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: Rights and he says he's got a bunch of questions

385
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: he says, betting gascon. He says the Bow show was disgusting.

386
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 1: He says, well, this is one of your guy's guest

387
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: He says, listening to the Saturday Pop Quiz portion of

388
00:22:55,640 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: the podcast, he was surprised that people wouldn't want to

389
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 1: to share a sandwich. Yeah, if you cut said sandwich

390
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 1: in half, Adrian says, I could understand sharing it, but

391
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 1: he was talking about strategically biting around the already bitten

392
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:16,879
Speaker 1: part to share. That's gross. Yeah, I agree with you,

393
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:21,239
Speaker 1: Adrian's pretty pretty disgusting. Uh. And then he says, my

394
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: family and I had lunch at Ihop recently and we

395
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,679
Speaker 1: are now at fifty percent capacity in the Denver area.

396
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: Inside the restaurant, there were signs at all the tables

397
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: saying masks are required at all times unless you were

398
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 1: actively eating or drinking. My wife and I thought that

399
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,640
Speaker 1: was ridiculous and kept our masks off during the entire meal.

400
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 1: Your thoughts, I'm right there with you, Adrian. Yes, I

401
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,360
Speaker 1: think it's the dumbest thing. Uh. There's a restaurant I've

402
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 1: spent a lot of time in Orange County in Uh,

403
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 1: there's a one of my favorite Mexican restaurants. My family

404
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: used to go there as a kid, and I've been

405
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 1: going there and uh, you know, they have the deal

406
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: with you have to have your mask on. But it's

407
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 1: like when you stand up, you're supposed to have your

408
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: mask so you can sit down and I guess the

409
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: the corona is no big deal and all, yeah, it's

410
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:08,159
Speaker 1: the rules are so so wonky on this. Not a

411
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 1: fan guest. Gun people are absolutely crushing Florida and it's

412
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: it's phenomenal. It's laughable now because we had we had

413
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: the big pandemonium about Alabama with their national title and

414
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,880
Speaker 1: people partying in Tuscaloosa, and the same thing with Florida,

415
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 1: particular Tampa Bay with the Super Bowl and the Bucks

416
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 1: winning it, and people are on the streets or people

417
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 1: are on their boat parades and doing that stuff on

418
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: the water. And you look at cases of the coronavirus

419
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: in Florida have decrease and they're even less than the

420
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: state of California, in the state of New York, and

421
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: they've actually had lockdowns. It is fucking laughable. And you know,

422
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 1: obviously a lot of this is just driven by politics,

423
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 1: but you crush the guys that you want you want,

424
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 1: and you you celebrate the ones that are are drastically different,

425
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 1: like a guy like Governor Cuomo. It's it's fucking a joke.

426
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 1: But you know, mean, other countries are doing things drastically

427
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 1: different too, and they're still living life and the same breath.

428
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 1: You look at politicians and celebrities, they don't do the

429
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 1: same ship that are are are required of what the

430
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: common folks are. So it's it's a big fucking joke.

431
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 1: It's unfortunate, but that's the way it is. Yeah, no, listen,

432
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,879
Speaker 1: I agree. And the thing that I don't know if

433
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 1: I worry about it, but I just like, how does

434
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 1: he how do we get out of it? Like so

435
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 1: many political hacks are so invested in the mask and

436
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: the restrictions, and it's like it's it's feeding their egos.

437
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 1: So it's it. We do need places like Florida and

438
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 1: in other places that are not run by the Mama

439
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:48,399
Speaker 1: Lukes who want to have all these restrictions. It's just insane.

440
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 1: So I'm absolutely mean, how can you not pull for Florida?

441
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 1: And it's so funny to go back and do a

442
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: search on the Internet of all those stories the the

443
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: hack media. We're reporting, Oh my god, everyone's gonna on FLOORA.

444
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:04,359
Speaker 1: The governor should be put up on murder chargers in

445
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 1: the world. Yeah, pearl clutching is what we call it,

446
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,359
Speaker 1: A lot of pearl clutching, A lot of faux outrage,

447
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: faux outrage. S guys falling chicken, little chicken, little chicken,

448
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: little this skuy is falling. Uh. Adrian also says, what

449
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 1: are your thoughts on the Nolan Erinado trade? He says,

450
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 1: I am so angry. Adrian in the Mile High City

451
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 1: says so angry with the Rockies front office and Dick

452
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 1: and Charlie Montfort the owners, that I will not be

453
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 1: a Rocky fan this season. Well, good job by you, Adrian,

454
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,159
Speaker 1: because this is the way I look at this. A

455
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:42,679
Speaker 1: real fan. You want to be a fan who is loyal,

456
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 1: but you don't want to be loyal to a fault.

457
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 1: You should be a discerning customer. And if the team's

458
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 1: not trying to win, if the team's not putting an

459
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 1: effort to put a good baseball team on the field,

460
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 1: what the hell are you gonna pay attention to it?

461
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,880
Speaker 1: He says he's gonna be a fan of Doc Mike's team.

462
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,120
Speaker 1: The North Side team in Chicago. He says, they're gonna

463
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 1: be my my second favorite team there. He's gonna follow.

464
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 1: It wouldn't be bad if he was a Chicago White

465
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 1: Sox fan either. They should have a pretty good run

466
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:13,400
Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, one of the darlings of the baseball world.

467
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 1: In one uh, he says, Gascot, what are the Broncos

468
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 1: chances of landing DeShawn Watson? Fuck? Danver would have to

469
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,400
Speaker 1: trade the farm, but I think they should do it. Yeah,

470
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 1: I think they should too. I mean, the last time

471
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: they've actually hit on a quarterback was Manning, and he

472
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 1: was a free agent obviously at that time. But they've

473
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: they've swung and miss since Manning, and they swung and

474
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 1: missed for a while since Elway retired. I mean, the

475
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: last good quarterback they had prior to Manning, I think

476
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: was Jake Plummer, and even him, he didn't get that

477
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 1: good of a run and Shannon benched him for for

478
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,920
Speaker 1: Jake Cutler. I'd I'd mortgage the farm for a guy

479
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 1: like Deshaun Watson. I know you're not a big Watson fan,

480
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 1: but I take Wats off. He's can't even handle Twitter.

481
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 1: I'd take Watson. I'd take Watson. The overdrew Lock ten

482
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,719
Speaker 1: times with a ten times, so, you know, and they

483
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 1: got problems everywhere. But the quarterbacks that you ation kinda

484
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 1: fixes a lot of those things. So necessarily the Texans

485
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 1: won four games and they had to Shaun Watson. So

486
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:08,480
Speaker 1: I don't know how it fixes a lot of things. Yeah,

487
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,400
Speaker 1: but it wasn't the offense that was the problem. Where

488
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,880
Speaker 1: defense was got off a lot of empty stats there,

489
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 1: my man, I called for the zombie stats. I know,

490
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,919
Speaker 1: I completely agree, but at least you could pole those up.

491
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 1: Drew Lock can't even do that, right. He's good for

492
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 1: one or two really good games a year. It was

493
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 1: against Carolina. He looked like John Elway did. Yeah, he

494
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 1: looked amazing, look like a world beater. Yeah. Then he

495
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 1: went back to being It looks more like Mark Wilson.

496
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: After at the old Raider quarter. There's an outdated reference,

497
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: last one from Madre and he says, Ben, please tell

498
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 1: me the story of you almost trampling Casey Cayson in

499
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 1: the hallway at Fox Sports Radio. Yeah, Adrian, I can

500
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 1: tell you the truncated version of that. So this is

501
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 1: many many years ago. Obviously, Casey Cayson passed away a

502
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 1: number of years ago, Casey Kyson was the one of

503
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: the voice actors on Scooby Dooby Doo. He was was Shaggy, right,

504
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 1: he was Shaggy on Scooby Doo. Think he did Transformers too. Yeah,

505
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 1: I did a bunch of stuff and he he hosted.

506
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 1: He was a big part of American pop culture. He

507
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 1: hosted Casey Cason Countdown Show, which was syndicated on thousands

508
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: of radio stations across the country. He's a legend in

509
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 1: my business, in our business, and uh and so anyway, Casey,

510
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 1: we work out of the premier networks in l A

511
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: and Fox Sports Radio's main studio right across the hall

512
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: was the Casey case In Voice Studio, where Casey Cason

513
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: would go in a little booth and you know, not

514
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 1: much of anything, and he would sit in there and

515
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 1: he would voice scripts for the countdown and and do

516
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: his thing. And so in the early days of Fox

517
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 1: Sports Radio, I did a lot of ships. I was

518
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 1: a utility guy. I worked weekends, but then I'd fill

519
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 1: in during the week and I had one stretch where

520
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 1: for like six months I was doing the show during

521
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: the mid days with Chris Myers, the big TV guy

522
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 1: from Fox. I kid because I care, uh Chris Meyers.

523
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: So anyway, I was doing the show with him, and

524
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: you know, I was a pretty big guy at the time.

525
00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 1: I'm still a big guy, but I was much bigger

526
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 1: than And there's a lunchtime show and I we were

527
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: eating whatever, and I had to go to the bathroom.

528
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 1: So I went down the bathroom and and as I

529
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 1: remember the story, and the stories evolved over the years,

530
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 1: but this is I remember it today, Adrian. So I

531
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 1: was in the bathroom. It's getting close to the show

532
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: coming back. I get out of the bathroom. I'd washed

533
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 1: my hands. I get out of the bathroom, and then

534
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 1: I hear the music like we're coming back, you know,

535
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 1: because it was on the speakers in the hallway. And

536
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:26,760
Speaker 1: so then I start freaking out. I'm like, oh my god,

537
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be there. They're back on the year

538
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 1: Myers is gonna be on there. I need to be

539
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 1: there with Myers. I'm out of the show. I gotta

540
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 1: be in there. So I start running down this hallway, right,

541
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 1: I run down the hall to try to get into

542
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 1: the to the studio so I don't miss any of

543
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 1: the show. So I it takes me a while to

544
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: build up some some you know speed. So I'm running

545
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 1: down the hallway. Then I have to make a quick left,

546
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: and then there's a weird quarter. There's like an intersection

547
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 1: corner um with another hallway. So I make a left,

548
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 1: and then I've got to make a quick right. All right,

549
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 1: somebody left and the right. And then as as I'm

550
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 1: making the left and turning right, and I'm I'm right

551
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: near the studio door, a very petite, very small, very fragile,

552
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,840
Speaker 1: very um. You know, I don't want to right right.

553
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 1: Fragile is the right word. Casey Casum has come out

554
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 1: of his little radio booth where he's doing voiceovers. He

555
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 1: then it's time slowed down, because I'm going at a

556
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 1: fit at pretty fair rate of speed. I've almost at

557
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: my destination. Casey comes out of the door. He's standing

558
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 1: in the hallway, and he freezes and gives me this

559
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 1: look like, oh my god, I'm about to meet my maker.

560
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I am going to die by being

561
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 1: trampled by this wildebeest. Uh and uh, it was. It

562
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 1: was that kind of thing. And but fortunately I used

563
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 1: a swim technique that I learned in high school football.

564
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: I used the swim technique, and I was able to

565
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 1: move around Casey Casum to avoid not only his premature demise,

566
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 1: but my demise is I would have never worked in

567
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 1: radio again if I had taken out the Great Casey Caseum.

568
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 1: So I saved my career, and I saved at least

569
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 1: for a few years, because I know he passed away

570
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 1: several years after that, the Great Casey Caseum, And it

571
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 1: was cool. He used to show up to the premiere parties,

572
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 1: the big premiere radio networks parties that we had back

573
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 1: in the day, and I got to meet him a

574
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 1: few times, and he was he was a cool guy,

575
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: legend in the business. Casey case Um. I know he's

576
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 1: alleged and my parents listened to him when they were,

577
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 1: you know, kids and stuff. So you know, you've been

578
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 1: around the block a few times when your parents would

579
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 1: listen to somebody on the radio that was that was

580
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 1: pretty cool. John in Shoreline, Washington rights and he says

581
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 1: the furthest you've driven in one day. He says he

582
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:47,560
Speaker 1: made it from Sea Adult to Bakersfield seventeen hours last Friday. Well,

583
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:51,240
Speaker 1: that is impressive. Impressive. John's all downhill right from the

584
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 1: north of something the furthest I've driven in one day.

585
00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 1: I've done the San Francisco l A thing a bit.

Speaker 1: What about you, guess? Yeah, I've gone San Diego to Sacramento,

590
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:19,400

591
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 1: that's not too long. Probably the fucking longest I've ever

592
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 1: had though, not distance wise but time wise, was l

593
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 1: A to Las Vegas coming back from that on a

594
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 1: Memorial Day weekend on a Monday. And that's a rookie

595
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 1: mistake by you, guess. No, I did kie mistake. I

596
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 1: did it in the evening time, and it took me

597
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 1: ten fucking hours. It's normally a four and a half

598
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 1: hour drive from Vegas to l A or back, and

607
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 1: how you're saying is out of prison? Funk? Is that?

608
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 1: Apparently this guy is a Brooklyn rapper? I guess he

609
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 1: was in jail for six years. I don't know who

610
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,720
Speaker 1: you've never have you heard of that? Never heard of him?

611
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,640
Speaker 1: I have no idea who that is. Rita writes in

612
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 1: she says, I heard you say you listen to to

613
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: Art Bell back in the day. What story do you

614
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:38,120
Speaker 1: remember most about Art? Oh? I love dark the great thing.

615
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 1: And it's really the gift that separates people on radio

616
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,040
Speaker 1: that are the top people. I'm trying to get to

617
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 1: that point storytelling and and and the other thing is

618
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 1: Art could make the most boring, benign topic fascinating. And

619
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 1: he would put people on his show that most other people,

620
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: most reasonable people would say, this person is a space cadet,

621
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 1: what are you doing? And and Art would listen. And

622
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 1: this was the gift. He would listen to these people, right,

623
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 1: who are a cuckoo for cocoa puffs? And you know

624
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 1: he wouldn't mock and ridicule them, and he would listen.

625
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 1: And I remember when he would have the Hollow Earth

626
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 1: people on, which is ironic because I've had interactions with

627
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 1: the Hollow Earth people from doing the Overnight show at Fox,

628
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 1: and when we were talking about Kyrie and the flat Earth,

629
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 1: I had some Hollow Earth people call up who still

630
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 1: send me propaganda. Um so that. I also remember meeting Art,

631
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 1: I got I had a good fortune. Art lived in Nevada,

632
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:39,239
Speaker 1: did the show from Peumpt, Nevada, famously the Kingdom of

633
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,760
Speaker 1: nai You know, I called it the Kingdom of Nine

634
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 1: because it was in nig County. I guess was the

635
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:49,800
Speaker 1: county he broadcast from. So he says, the Kingdom of Naie.

636
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,120
Speaker 1: But but Art was were you a listener, by the way,

637
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: did you listen to it? To Art bell to do?

638
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 1: I did not know. Yeah, that was his catch, the

639
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 1: Kingdom of Nine, and uh yeah, I loved Coast to

640
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 1: Coast and it was yeah, he was from Ni County.

641
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,319
Speaker 1: Then shows from Ni County, Nevada. But but Art, they

642
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:13,240
Speaker 1: dragged him out to Los Angeles for the premier Christmas

643
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 1: parties and it was he was at one at the

644
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 1: the Beverly Hills. Which hotel was it the Hilton? Is

645
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: that the one with the Beverly Hills Hotel? It might

646
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 1: have been the Yeah, we had one there. There were two,

647
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,719
Speaker 1: two different hotels in Beverly Hills. We had Christmas parties

648
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,400
Speaker 1: that but anyway, they brought in all the big premiere

649
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 1: stars and and Art was there and I briefly met him,

650
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 1: which was pretty cool. As a radio nerd, that was

651
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,400
Speaker 1: pretty neat. But I just remember listening to Art and

652
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,280
Speaker 1: I uh and the big Art thing was before two thousand,

653
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,840
Speaker 1: the y two K, which everyone thought all the computers

654
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:45,720
Speaker 1: in the world, we're gonna shut down because we're flipping

655
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:49,399
Speaker 1: from the ear two thousand and Art did so many

656
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:55,720
Speaker 1: shows about that and then like nothing happened, nothing, nothing happened. Um.

657
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:57,840
Speaker 1: So it was just some of the things that I

658
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 1: remember about Art. But the just a legend, just a

659
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,279
Speaker 1: gift to the overnights, to the nocturnal crowd. Man. I

660
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,399
Speaker 1: fell in love with Art. My parents listen to R Belt.

661
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,839
Speaker 1: My parents are night people and they would listen to Art,

662
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 1: and then I listen. I know, George does a great

663
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: job to on coast to coast and It's pretty cool

664
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,799
Speaker 1: because George does the show. He doesn't show from St.

665
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 1: Louis some of the year, but he's out of our building.

666
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,839
Speaker 1: And I would park next to George nor from time

667
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 1: to time and and I meet meet him. And I

668
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 1: remember one time, the original the original Fox Sports Radio

669
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,840
Speaker 1: studios were right across the hall from Coast to Coast

670
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,919
Speaker 1: from there from their studio, and then we moved downstairs

671
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,399
Speaker 1: to our showcase studios, which were showcased twenty years ago,

672
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 1: and but we they were renovating those a couple of

673
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:38,759
Speaker 1: years back, so we had to go back to the

674
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 1: original Fox Sports Radio studios, and we were invading coast

675
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,319
Speaker 1: to coast is space. So we were getting like the

676
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:48,000
Speaker 1: aside I from the coast to coast guys like, what's

677
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:49,759

679
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:58,719
Speaker 1: renovation and never end the renovation. Now IOWA made Day

Speaker 1: to detail how you can use you're in as an

690

Speaker 1: The one I will I will share with you right

698
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 1: now because it's in my head. When I was doing

699
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:02,359
Speaker 1: the Blitz with Looney and we were doing the show,

700
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 1: doing our thing, you know whatever on Sundays for it

701
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 1: was like a seven hour situation, just went on and

702
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 1: on and on and on, breaking down football games and

703
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 1: it was the never ending thing. And um, but me

704
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,560
Speaker 1: and Looney we like to talk shop, you know. They

705
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 1: talked about the gossip of the radio station or the

706
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:21,759
Speaker 1: radio business in general, and we do that during the

707
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 1: commercial breaks, and not that we ever break, so we

708
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,320
Speaker 1: would just be talking and uh so we are in

709
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:32,800
Speaker 1: mid conversation and we are just just char boiling someone

710
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 1: in radio that we were talking about. There was a

711
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 1: big story this person was involved in and uh in

712
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 1: our our engineer, uh, the great Steve Stillwell, i'll say

713
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,400
Speaker 1: his name. I don't think you'll mind. So he walks

714
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 1: down to get a beverage and then he proceeds to

715
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:54,320
Speaker 1: to walk back, right, proceeds to walk back in a panic,

716
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 1: and he's waving his hands frantically outside the glass window

717
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,839
Speaker 1: because apparently he had forgotten to turn the mics down,

718
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 1: and the mics were on the entire time, and everything

719
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 1: we were saying was being broadcast, but there were commercials playing,

720
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:12,600
Speaker 1: so you you couldn't really hear everything, but you know,

721
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:17,799
Speaker 1: if you were listening intently, you could hear it. Right. Fuck, yeah,

722
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:24,320
Speaker 1: isn't that wild man? It was unfortunate, Yeah, it was.

723
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 1: It was the person you were talking about. Move that

724
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 1: to another podcast down the line, Will in Springfield, right

00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,839
Speaker 1: we have a big enough reach in the greater Philadelphia?

760
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:37,120
Speaker 1: We've only been on there for a relatively short amount

761
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 1: of time on the Gambler Philadelphia. I think if you make,

762
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:43,799
Speaker 1: if you make an appearance, I think if you want

763
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 1: to bump that number up, you should have a special

764
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:50,040
Speaker 1: guest on Tony Bruno. Oh, Tony is the king of Philadelphia.

765
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,160
Speaker 1: There go. I think that would definitely. But I'm saying

766
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: if I just made an appearance, it wasn't on the radio.

767
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:55,360
Speaker 1: Like I know, we have a lot of listeners in

768
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:58,680
Speaker 1: New Jersey. Um, which is you know, could be northern

769
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 1: New Jersey not southern New jery Zy. But yeah, if

770
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,960
Speaker 1: we had enough, I would love to do it. Um.

771
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:06,879
Speaker 1: I'd be great to hang out with Fats, that guy.

772
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,879
Speaker 1: Fats as a character, like to hang out with that guy.

773
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:13,040
Speaker 1: He's a party. Hey the guy lights himself on fire,

774
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 1: screaming my name? Who does that? He does that? That's

775
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 1: who does that? My god, unbelievable. Mike in Vegas, right,

776
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:22,279
Speaker 1: since says, besides the Dodgers, who do you think so

777
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,520
Speaker 1: legitimate contended to win the World Series? The Commissioners Trophy

778
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:29,719
Speaker 1: a k a. The hunk of Metal? Mike, Uh, Well,

779
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: I this to me is pretty simple. On my big board,

780
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 1: I have the three teams in the National League. If

781
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 1: you it's like that old thing we used to do

782
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,760
Speaker 1: with Tiger, uh where either you know Tiger or the field.

783
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:46,319
Speaker 1: If you give me six teams and you take everyone else,

784
00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:48,319
Speaker 1: I'll take those six teams and I will I will

785
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:52,360
Speaker 1: have the World Series winner. My six teams are the Dodgers, Padres,

786
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 1: and Braves in the National League, Yankees, White Sox and

787
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:59,080
Speaker 1: Blue Jays. In the American League, you can have everyone else.

788
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 1: I'll take those six teams. One of those six teams

789
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 1: is gonna win the World Series. What say you? I'm

790
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,040
Speaker 1: right there with you. I think you agree with I

791
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 1: think in the National Leage, especially the Dodgers and the Padres,

792
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:13,920
Speaker 1: maybe pushed back a little bit on the Braves. I mean,

793
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,800
Speaker 1: I know Kuna is a monster, but outside of that,

794
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:19,280
Speaker 1: on the American link side, I think it's the Yankees.

795
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:21,240
Speaker 1: I'll be curious to see what happens with the Tampa

796
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 1: Bay Rays. I know losing Blakes now is gonna hurt

797
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:26,560
Speaker 1: them a little bit, but I still think they have Yeah,

798
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:31,480
Speaker 1: the Rays are always like they're always pretty good because

799
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:35,920
Speaker 1: they do things an odd way. But the Marlins or

800
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:38,480
Speaker 1: not the mine that the the the Atlanta Braves. I'm

801
00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:42,520
Speaker 1: telling you, the Braves are gonna be right there again.

802
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,440
Speaker 1: I am all about that action. Yeah, it sounds like

803
00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 1: you are. I hate to say that, but my friend,

804
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,239
Speaker 1: the great Jerome Drettovitch, we should get Jerome drenov sean

805
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:53,839
Speaker 1: in Atlanta. He does unless I heard he was doing

806
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 1: Braves games they did. Add not that I like him

807
00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,760
Speaker 1: because he's a cheating astro. But they added Charlie Morton,

808
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:03,759
Speaker 1: he's their number two starter. They got Max Freed, right,

809
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:06,719
Speaker 1: I think that's the number one and uh and and

810
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:11,080
Speaker 1: you know they've got a decent rotation, A decent rotation,

811
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 1: not a great rotation. A little top heavy there with

812
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:17,800
Speaker 1: Morton and Freed the top two guys. But the lineup

813
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:22,400
Speaker 1: with Acuna and Freddie Freeman and Marcelo Zuna is back,

814
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:25,399
Speaker 1: and Ozzy Albie is a pretty good ball player. That's

815
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:27,839
Speaker 1: not That's not I hate to give the the Bravos credit.

816
00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:29,440
Speaker 1: That's pretty good team. I don't think they I don't

817
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: think they changed anybody in the line I think the

818
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:32,839
Speaker 1: line up is the same lineup they had last year.

819
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:34,279
Speaker 1: I think, yeah. I mean they've been on the com

820
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,320
Speaker 1: for the last couple of years anyway, so you expect

821
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,239
Speaker 1: them to go a little bit deeper into the Fall

822
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:42,600
Speaker 1: Classic anyway. Yeah. And they're bullpens okay, and it's I

823
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: don't know if it's the greatest bullpen in the world,

824
00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 1: but yeah, So I get the Braves on that list

825
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 1: and other other than that, I don't think there's anyone

826
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 1: else other than those six teams you can go Oakland A's.

827
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:56,320
Speaker 1: Oakland A's will be good for like some amazing stretch

828
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 1: run and people start talking about them, and then they'll

829
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:00,640
Speaker 1: just flame out the tail end or in the playoffs.

830
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 1: I'm not putting the cheating Astros on that list. Did

831
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 1: a bad record last season, and they'll be much better

832
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:12,200
Speaker 1: this year. Angels on their last last run with one

833
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 1: fat Albert Albert Pools win one for fat Albert. Yeah,

834
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go no on that. Yeah, I'm gonna go

835
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 1: know on that. Yeah, I think we're good on that.

836
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 1: I think that's that's it. We'll put the the baby

837
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 1: to bed. So we didn't get to your question. I
