It's a very 0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:57.160 important holiday. Please celebrate appropriately. 0:00:57.680 --> 0:00:59.760 Can you have onion rings without ranch? 0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:01.880 That's wrong, that's the bad answer. 0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:05.240 To hell, do you dip onion rings in because it 0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:11.360 is a proven, proven barbecue sauce. No, it's a scientifical 0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:14.720 fact that you have to dip onion rings into a 0:01:14.760 --> 0:01:15.399 good ranch. 0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:22.480 That's the wrong answer. And when an onion ring is 0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:26.240 made properly, you don't need you do not need the ranch. 0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:29.119 Justsing now. Unpopular opinion to some, but I will share 0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:33.480 my opinion. Anyway on this National Onion Ring Day. To me, 0:01:33.760 --> 0:01:36.200 the onion ring should be thin, not thick. 0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:39.240 The I agree, I agree, okay, all right. 0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:44.039 And when they're too thick, it's the crust fells off. 0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:44.400 And it's a big mess. 0:01:44.600 --> 0:01:46.399 Yeah. I don't like the onion thick, and I don't 0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:47.840 like the breading thick either. 0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:52.800 So get your onion all the way slash stuff is. Yeah, 0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:57.000 there's that fine sweet spot. Now did you know that 0:01:57.120 --> 0:02:01.080 the onion ring? I love these facts. I'm addicted to 0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:05.160 fun facts. The onion ring goes back. The earliest recorded 0:02:05.440 --> 0:02:10.280 recipe for an onion ring goes back to eighteen o two. 0:02:11.480 --> 0:02:15.000 Eighteen o two, someone named John Mollard. 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:18.480 This zy bastard just dipped an onion into. 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:24.720 The recipe, had fried onions with parmersan cheese in his 0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:30.440 cookbook The Art of Cookery Made Easy and Refined not great. 0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:33.079 Even in the eighteen hundreds of they're writing books easy 0:02:33.160 --> 0:02:35.720 and refined. All those marketing terms, I'll make it easy, 0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:39.239 make it Yeah, we're more refined. They still use those 0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:44.000 terms all these years later. A restaurant chain in Texas 0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:48.000 named Kirby's Pig Stand is believed to be the first 0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:53.359 that started selling onion rings at a restaurant, and then 0:02:53.480 --> 0:02:58.679 in eight nineteen thirty three they became more mainstream. So 0:02:58.720 --> 0:03:02.400 about fifteen years after that original recipe restaurant in Texas 0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:08.680 and really took off in the nineteen sixties when A 0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:12.920 and W restaurants added onion rings to the menu. And 0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:16.440 my favorite onion ring fact that we've learned from doing 0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:20.799 this podcast is the story about McDonald's. Remember that story, Danny, 0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:24.120 That McDonald's had opportunities to add the onion rings to 0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:27.160 the menu. Oh, yes, but they decided not to do 0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:29.720 it because they make so much money from their fries. 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:31.560 They were afraid people were just going to buy the 0:03:31.600 --> 0:03:34.080 onion rings and they wouldn't have as large a a 0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:37.200 profit margin from the onion rings. So McDonald's has passed 0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:39.800 on selling onion rings even though they could. But we 0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:43.520 have out here Carls Junior or Harty's if you're east 0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:45.000 of the Mississippi. 0:03:45.320 --> 0:03:46.680 Yeah, they got good onion rings. 0:03:46.680 --> 0:03:49.280 They've got pretty good onion rings. I'm trying to think 0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:51.920 the greatest onion ring you've had. 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:54.920 Also, if you want to go like an onion ring, 0:03:55.040 --> 0:03:59.920 taste but healthier fried zucchini at Carl's Junior slash Hearties. 0:04:01.080 --> 0:04:04.040 Now. The greatest quantity of onion rings you can get, 0:04:04.040 --> 0:04:06.920 at least here in southern California is a place called 0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:10.920 the Hat. They give you a bag of onion rings. 0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:12.520 The stand is another one. 0:04:13.000 --> 0:04:16.640 The stands, Yeah, stands got big around here, so you've 0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:19.839 got that. Is also today's National Chocolate a Claire Day. 0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:25.159 If does that move you at all? The Chocolate Claire No, yeah, 0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:28.680 I'm not really a Chocolate a Claire guy either. On 0:04:28.720 --> 0:04:33.680 this podcast, we've got Side of the Road, the Selfie, 0:04:34.440 --> 0:04:36.599 we'll have the idiom of the week, and if we 0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:41.000 have time, Pop goes the culture. So we have all 0:04:41.080 --> 0:04:43.919 that as we must get to it right now. So 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:46.520 we'll start with this. Is it a bird? Is it 0:04:46.600 --> 0:04:47.159 a plane? 0:04:48.760 --> 0:04:49.400 What is it? 0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:50.520 So? 0:04:50.640 --> 0:04:54.840 On my way to work, normal week, nothing special going on. 0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:58.560 It was Tuesday, and I have the very long commute, 0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:02.000 usually too much traffic, but it's just a lot of miles, 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:04.360 a lot of miles to make the trip from the 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:08.719 north Woods to the beautiful Fox Sports Radio mothership. I'm 0:05:08.760 --> 0:05:11.440 again very happy the company's mandated I come in on 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:14.680 a regular basis. I have this whole planned out, my 0:05:15.040 --> 0:05:19.000 whole day is completely dedicated to the commute, and because 0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:20.320 it takes a long time, I have to leave at 0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:21.960 a certain point in that but I have to prepare 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:24.360 for the show. And so you know, these are first 0:05:24.360 --> 0:05:27.039 world problems. I'm not playing the victim. I'm just saying 0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:29.200 that's what I have to do. And so on my 0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:31.840 way to work this past Tuesday, I'm making the long 0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:35.280 drive to the mean streets of Los Angeles and then 0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:38.480 into the San Fernando Valley, trying to avoid the crime, 0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:40.000 homelessness that's all around. 0:05:40.480 --> 0:05:40.640 Now. 0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:44.440 I had just left the Malor Mansion and then out 0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:47.920 of the corner of my eye was turning left, and 0:05:48.040 --> 0:05:52.599 out of the corner of my eye, I saw the light. 0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:55.240 And then I did a double. 0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:58.640 Take, and I said, well, maybe I'm getting like secondhand 0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:00.400 weed or something like that. Or I've been hanging out 0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:05.600 with jet who fled? Are we being either invaded by aliens? 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:11.400 Or has someone from North Korea or Russia Senna nuk 0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:13.880 our way? Is this what the end of the world 0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:16.960 looks like? So I don't want to go all coast 0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:19.440 to coast and George Nori on yall or all that, 0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:22.440 But let me just tell you what I saw was 0:06:22.520 --> 0:06:25.039 awesome because I didn't know it was coming. I didn't 0:06:25.040 --> 0:06:30.799 expect it so much, so I never do this. I 0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:34.200 never do I was rubbernecking. I pulled off to the 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:34.960 side of the road. 0:06:35.040 --> 0:06:36.440 I thought you were going to say you called nine 0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:36.880 one one. 0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:38.040 No, I didn't. 0:06:38.320 --> 0:06:38.920 I didn't do that. 0:06:40.160 --> 0:06:41.800 I have called nine one one a few times when 0:06:41.800 --> 0:06:44.280 I've had people driving the wrong way at me. And 0:06:44.320 --> 0:06:46.400 I'll tell you what, if you want the police to 0:06:46.400 --> 0:06:48.440 show up, tell them somebody's driving the wrong way on 0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:52.520 the freeway. They'll show up real quick. But anyway, so 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:54.360 I'm sorry. I pulled up a side of the road 0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:57.400 and I get my phone out. I don't usually do that. 0:06:57.520 --> 0:06:59.520 I like record this whole thing. I want to soak 0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:03.680 it all in. And it did look like a nuclear 0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:08.160 missile or a rocket, or it was heading out to 0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:10.720 the heavens or was it coming in from the heavens. 0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:14.840 I wasn't sure. And uh, it's pretty well. I'm gonna 0:07:15.640 --> 0:07:19.520 try to multitask your Danny, and a good, good podcaster 0:07:19.760 --> 0:07:21.840 would have sent this to you probably a while ago, 0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:23.960 so I'm gonna send it to you right now. 0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:26.480 That's what separates us from the other podcasts. 0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:28.840 We keep it real. That's what we do. 0:07:29.320 --> 0:07:32.040 Of course, now I can't find it. I mean, oh 0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:33.280 I find I'll find the video. 0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:34.800 Take my compliment back. 0:07:35.280 --> 0:07:36.800 All right, No, no, I'm gonna send it to you 0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:39.800 right now. Just see. Tell me this does not look 0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:44.040 like a missile or some kind of religious uh like 0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.320 sign from the heavens or something like that. 0:07:47.600 --> 0:07:49.920 Just driving along, I have a funny feeling that what 0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:53.000 you're sending me is something I saw. Okay other people 0:07:53.040 --> 0:07:54.320 post on social media? 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:56.800 Probably probably so, yes, probably so yes. 0:07:56.880 --> 0:07:58.640 I saw this on social media. 0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:00.160 Well I didn't know about it. That is a a 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:03.680 rocket from elon Musk. I think he might have been 0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:07.200 on the rocket from SpaceX that was flying over the 0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:07.840 night sky. 0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:09.880 Did this launch from Vandenburg? 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:16.280 Yes, okay, launched from Vanderburgh. And I will not name 0:08:16.400 --> 0:08:19.080 the person here because I did not want to incriminate 0:08:19.120 --> 0:08:24.480 the guilty. But the naked streets a friend of mine 0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:28.360 who I've known for many, many years, sent me a 0:08:28.480 --> 0:08:33.880 message because he loves photography of just different random things 0:08:33.880 --> 0:08:39.040 and stuff, and he was at Vandenberg to he was 0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:42.400 waiting for this launch. He was there all day and 0:08:42.520 --> 0:08:47.720 a rumor has it that he got completely hammered but 0:08:48.000 --> 0:08:50.960 drove home because he has a self driving Tesla. 0:08:51.880 --> 0:08:53.400 So here's the question. 0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:54.760 I didn't bring this up to him and I will 0:08:54.760 --> 0:08:59.719 not name him, but can one get a dui? If 0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:02.720 you're in the car drunk but not driving the car? 0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:06.480 Once the car is on, they can give you a 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:08.040 ticket for being drunk? 0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:11.679 Okay, Well, and they're toning the ruse while Luisa was 0:09:11.720 --> 0:09:13.480 driving to be passed out in an intersect. 0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:16.680 Yeah, taking a nap, you know you're you're trying to sleep. 0:09:16.720 --> 0:09:19.560 Let us maybe we have a lot of police that 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:23.000 like these shows. Somebody law enforcement. Let us let us know. 0:09:23.760 --> 0:09:26.560 If you're in the back seat sleeping and the car 0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:29.160 is off, can you get a dui? See, I don't 0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:32.520 think they can give you. Yeah, it's a great cake. 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:34.319 If you pull over to the side of the road 0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:36.960 and you're sleeping but you're in the back seat, you're 0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:39.400 technically in the car, you have the keys to the car, 0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:42.600 but the car's not on, you're not moving, and you're 0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:45.280 taking a nap, trying to get rid of the buzz 0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:45.640 that you have. 0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:49.160 It says based on the ruling and Mercer Versus Department 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:52.160 of Motor Vehicles nineteen ninety one, while you can still 0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:55.520 get a DUI if the vehicle isn't in motion, proof 0:09:55.640 --> 0:09:59.880 of volitional movement is required for a conviction. 0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:05.640 Okay, gotcha. And if you're sleeping in the back, that's 0:10:05.640 --> 0:10:07.640 where you have to hire one of those billboard attorneys 0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:11.600 and you'll be in good shape. Hey, speaking of extraterrestrials 0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:13.240 and things like that, there was a story that I 0:10:13.280 --> 0:10:15.560 was reading about that was pretty cool. I've never been 0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:20.320 to Roswell. Have you ever been to Roswell, New Mexico. No, Yeah, 0:10:20.360 --> 0:10:23.000 there's a story I read in the Daily Mail, so 0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:24.840 it must be true because it was in the Daily Mail, 0:10:24.840 --> 0:10:27.880 and the Daily Mail is never wrong. But they say 0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:33.120 they found new compelling evidence at that site, the Roswell 0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:38.560 UFO site that proved an alien crash happened in nineteen 0:10:38.679 --> 0:10:43.760 forty seven according to experts. Now you're probably wondering, how 0:10:43.800 --> 0:10:46.000 the hell could they put it's been so long, what's 0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:52.960 left there? But the suppose it extraterrestrial craft crashed in 0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:59.280 the outskirts of Roswell, And of course the military came 0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:03.080 out right away the crash site and somebody who's they've 0:11:03.080 --> 0:11:09.040 been using metal detectors since twenty ten and this geologists 0:11:09.760 --> 0:11:15.000 claimed that they uncovered about twenty unusual scraps of metal material, 0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:19.960 most no bigger than a fingernail, and have now submitted 0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:24.000 one odd metal for testing to uh uh, it's to 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:29.360 a TV show Danny on Discovery Channel Alien Encounters Fact 0:11:29.440 --> 0:11:32.800 or Fiction. The testing revealed that the metal was one 0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:38.720 percent pure aluminum, which experts said was compelling evidence that 0:11:38.880 --> 0:11:41.160 proved the crash happened. 0:11:42.320 --> 0:11:46.840 So they claimed, big, guys that're looking at us, there 0:11:46.920 --> 0:11:50.520 you go. It's like Man in Black came to life, 0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:55.520 because everything they joke about being true has come true. 0:11:56.200 --> 0:11:59.800 Yeah, yeah, in one way or another. It seems that way. 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:03.280 Like the technology stuff that we have and all that. 0:12:04.080 --> 0:12:06.240 There's like an apol person beside it. 0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:08.160 Yeah, it's pretty crazy. 0:12:10.000 --> 0:12:12.480 If you see an alien, take a selfie with with 0:12:12.600 --> 0:12:13.880 the alien, right, that's what you should do. 0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:17.640 They usually move so fast though, that the picture is 0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:21.280 always just a blur. Yeah. And the ones who don't 0:12:21.280 --> 0:12:24.640 believe this, we've argued about it on Covino and Rich 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:28.560 Rich always says, well, why is every picture blurry? I 0:12:28.559 --> 0:12:31.920 don't understand, And it's because these spacecrafts and aliens move 0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:32.600 so fast. 0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:33.800 Yeah. 0:12:33.920 --> 0:12:37.400 How do you explain the fighter pilots in the military, 0:12:37.520 --> 0:12:39.600 they're in the Air Force or the Navy, that are 0:12:39.600 --> 0:12:43.600 out in the ocean and see, they witness things that 0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:48.440 are impossible with human technology on a regular basis, like 0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:52.840 things coming out of the ocean. Now, my theory is 0:12:52.880 --> 0:12:57.200 that there's a whole underworld under the ocean, and like 0:12:57.240 --> 0:13:01.400 there's a whole species of level critters that live under 0:13:01.400 --> 0:13:03.800 the ocean, like Land of the Lost, and they have 0:13:04.000 --> 0:13:08.320 ports that they exit and they are studying us, and 0:13:08.360 --> 0:13:11.680 then they go back into the ocean and they just 0:13:11.960 --> 0:13:13.240 hang out wherever they live. 0:13:13.240 --> 0:13:15.200 In the middle of a plane, Georgie and Nori better 0:13:15.200 --> 0:13:18.240 watch out. I think we're listening to his replacement right now. 0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:21.080 Yeah, I'm just saying. I'm just saying, I've already got 0:13:21.120 --> 0:13:23.240 the callers. All I just need is the content. That's 0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:24.920 all I need is the content. That's it. 0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:28.959 I'm in command. Last Saturday night, we could have really 0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:33.439 used one of those space shuttles because we were sitting 0:13:33.520 --> 0:13:38.080 in traffic to go to country star Luke Comb's sold 0:13:38.080 --> 0:13:39.840 out concert at SOFI. 0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:42.360 Louke Albert Combes. 0:13:43.200 --> 0:13:46.000 Oh, so we kind of knew we were in for 0:13:46.160 --> 0:13:49.400 it as far as it being a travel day, because 0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:51.680 we went to the ways app and it said two 0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:55.319 hours and thirty one minutes to go twenty nine miles. 0:13:55.760 --> 0:13:59.160 That's a tough one, yo. The old joke from way 0:13:59.160 --> 0:14:01.360 back in the day, it's called the four or five 0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:04.320 because it's four or five hours to get to wherever 0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:07.640 you're going. Sure enough, that's how long it took us 0:14:07.679 --> 0:14:12.360 to get to Inglewood. But it was worth it, man, 0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:14.400 because we knew Luke Colmmes was gonna put on a 0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:18.400 great concert. My girl, though, for half of that time, 0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:22.160 sitting in that traffic, that mess, She's like, I gotta 0:14:22.200 --> 0:14:24.440 go to the bathroom. Oh man, I got a pee. 0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:26.680 You know, you know when your significant others doing the 0:14:26.720 --> 0:14:30.560 pea dance. Yeah, oh yeah. So she's kind of rocking 0:14:30.640 --> 0:14:32.600 back and forth a little bit, like, I got a pee. 0:14:32.640 --> 0:14:36.440 This traffic's ridiculous. I gotta go. When we got into Inglewood, 0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:40.000 we hit city limits and I remember the name of 0:14:40.040 --> 0:14:44.240 the street. You would have loved it, Nutwood. And I 0:14:44.320 --> 0:14:46.600 saw on my ways app that there was a Target 0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:50.160 right when we got into city limits, So I'm thinking, okay, 0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:54.080 target parking garage we run in use the bathroom. Usually 0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:56.480 when you run into a target. At least here in California, 0:14:56.920 --> 0:15:00.360 there's a family bathroom, a men's bathroom, a lady's bath bathroom, 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:03.240 and there's several stalls inside, so you could just walk 0:15:03.320 --> 0:15:07.760 right in and use the restroom. It's easy. Not at 0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:11.040 this inglewood bathroom. We get inside, the first thing we 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:16.840 notice there are three guards. One of them is armed. God, 0:15:16.920 --> 0:15:21.320 this is different from where we live. We find the restroom. 0:15:21.800 --> 0:15:24.560 It's got the buttons on it, you know where you 0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:27.800 have to put the code in. Yeah, So I'm like, ah, jeszu, 0:15:27.840 --> 0:15:29.760 this is a pain in the ass. So I go 0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:32.720 find an employee and I said, hey, can I please 0:15:32.760 --> 0:15:35.880 have the code for your restroom? And she says, hang on, 0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:40.360 I have to send someone over. So they don't even 0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:43.480 give you the actual code. They make an employee punch 0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:46.640 the code in. Man, this is like the verification it 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:50.200 takes to get into our work email. This is nuts. 0:15:50.200 --> 0:15:52.360 So yeah, we're standing over there in front of these 0:15:52.400 --> 0:15:56.160 restrooms inside the single would target, and finally an employee 0:15:56.160 --> 0:15:59.080 makes his way over and he says, oh, you know what, 0:15:59.200 --> 0:16:02.320 there's only one restroom and someone's been in there for 0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:05.200 a long time. There was one other restroom down the 0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:09.120 hall had a big sign on it that said employees only. 0:16:09.760 --> 0:16:12.400 So we're standing, We're waiting, we're waiting, we're waiting. He 0:16:12.480 --> 0:16:14.720 comes back around. He's like, the person's still in there. 0:16:15.040 --> 0:16:17.840 We're like, yeah, you see us, still standing here. So 0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:20.720 finally he feels bad and he's like, come over here. 0:16:21.040 --> 0:16:23.560 He walks us down the hall. He punches in the 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:27.280 employee code and lets us into that bathroom. Thank god. 0:16:27.640 --> 0:16:30.560 So we use that bathroom get out of there. By 0:16:30.600 --> 0:16:33.880 the way, there were homeless people camped out inside the 0:16:33.960 --> 0:16:36.360 Target in the Aisles, California. 0:16:36.440 --> 0:16:39.360 Man, California where we live. 0:16:39.680 --> 0:16:42.680 It's on the outside of the buildings in the city city, 0:16:42.800 --> 0:16:47.560 it's inside of the businesses. That's how bad it's gotten. 0:16:47.640 --> 0:16:50.920 So we're feeling bad for these employees at the Target, like, man, 0:16:50.960 --> 0:16:53.560 what a job. There was one guy his job was 0:16:53.680 --> 0:16:57.680 just to babysit the cameras, and another guy he was 0:16:57.720 --> 0:16:59.920 just watching the door. So it was like a look 0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:04.600 out situation. We we get to the venue finally and 0:17:04.680 --> 0:17:08.240 it is a mess with cars and people parking in 0:17:08.320 --> 0:17:12.960 the residential on the residential streets. We knew SOFI is 0:17:13.040 --> 0:17:17.520 expensive because we've been there for a rams Raiders preseason game. 0:17:17.960 --> 0:17:19.560 A great mass of the rators. 0:17:20.280 --> 0:17:23.840 We get into one of the lots. No signage doesn't 0:17:23.840 --> 0:17:26.680 say how much the parking is. We thought the girl 0:17:26.720 --> 0:17:29.639 was kidding. She said, that'll be one hundred dollars. 0:17:29.960 --> 0:17:31.520 One hundred dollars. 0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:33.760 This is what one hundred looks like. 0:17:37.960 --> 0:17:41.000 One hundred dollars to see And how long is the concert? 0:17:41.119 --> 0:17:44.439 Ninety minutes? So much life that ninety minutes. 0:17:44.720 --> 0:17:48.760 My wife had that same reaction and I said, sorry, babe, 0:17:48.800 --> 0:17:51.760 your concert t shirt budget just went out the window. 0:17:52.200 --> 0:17:56.520 Get away from me. We walk into Sofar. You've been there, right, 0:17:56.560 --> 0:17:59.240 but only in the media portion of the stadium. 0:17:59.480 --> 0:18:01.600 Yeah, walked around a little bit, but I'm not. I 0:18:01.600 --> 0:18:03.360 have not walked the entire stadium. 0:18:03.440 --> 0:18:07.120 No, it's a long walk. It's like Jurassic Park inside there. 0:18:07.680 --> 0:18:11.200 Beautiful stadium, but a lot of walking. And uh, we're 0:18:11.200 --> 0:18:16.520 both wearing cowboy boots because you know we're authentic. When 0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:20.719 in Rome, Yeah, when in Inglewood, went in Inglewood in 0:18:20.760 --> 0:18:24.800 the hood. Uh, and my wife, Yeah, my wife had 0:18:24.840 --> 0:18:27.679 a cowboy hat on. It wasn't from Target unless it was. 0:18:28.240 --> 0:18:29.240 We find out. 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:30.879 Did she just buy it? Did she just buy it 0:18:30.880 --> 0:18:31.479 at the Target? 0:18:32.280 --> 0:18:34.800 A week before the concert. She got it because we're 0:18:34.840 --> 0:18:38.960 authentic country music fans. We both listening to country music 0:18:38.960 --> 0:18:41.440 for a long time. Luke Combs is one of her 0:18:41.480 --> 0:18:44.840 favorite artists on the planet. She's hyped by the way. 0:18:44.880 --> 0:18:47.760 Her mom was babysitting big baby Koa. This is the 0:18:47.800 --> 0:18:52.639 first date night we've had in ten months. She was 0:18:52.680 --> 0:18:56.160 a static. She's drinking a cold one. It's our first 0:18:56.200 --> 0:19:00.240 Bruski in almost a year. The night's looking good. Sit 0:19:00.280 --> 0:19:04.120 down in our seats. There's one opener left before the headliner, 0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:07.919 Luke Combs comes on stage. Cool seats, great view of 0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:12.560 the stage, the best view. These three girls about two 0:19:12.680 --> 0:19:14.760 rows in front of us. Nobody else was in front 0:19:14.760 --> 0:19:20.160 of them. They were standing up taking turns, taking greats. 0:19:20.200 --> 0:19:24.040 Not only selfies, but they were taking turns, doing modeling 0:19:24.119 --> 0:19:27.359 sessions where one of them would take a photo of 0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:30.320 the other so you could see like the stage, you know. 0:19:30.240 --> 0:19:32.520 In the background, stuppi break. 0:19:33.640 --> 0:19:36.600 Twenty year olds all doing the same like four or 0:19:36.600 --> 0:19:41.640 five poses, butt out, fish lips, chest out. They all 0:19:41.640 --> 0:19:47.120 had cutoff jeans, boots, booty, showing bellies, showing flat abs, tans. 0:19:47.600 --> 0:19:49.280 They looked like country hussies. 0:19:49.960 --> 0:19:53.920 Maybe you want to hang out with me. Were the 0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:55.160 only fans models. 0:19:56.000 --> 0:19:58.680 They looked like my grandmother would have called them hussies. 0:19:59.280 --> 0:20:03.240 But my better half, she is a cool mom. She 0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:07.200 kept facetiming her oldest who loves Lukecomb's and country music, 0:20:07.760 --> 0:20:10.200 and for a lot of the face time, she put 0:20:10.320 --> 0:20:12.240 her camera on the three hussies. 0:20:12.760 --> 0:20:16.920 Oh yes, that's when you start to look creepy and shit. 0:20:17.760 --> 0:20:20.360 We had the best laugh about, though, Ben is when 0:20:20.359 --> 0:20:23.920 they were looking back at their photos trying to find 0:20:23.920 --> 0:20:26.679 a good one. And this was going on for like 0:20:26.720 --> 0:20:29.639 a half hour, where they're just sliding to the left, 0:20:29.720 --> 0:20:32.000 to the left, to the left, looking for the best 0:20:32.240 --> 0:20:35.680 slutty photo of each pose. And then we could see 0:20:35.760 --> 0:20:40.480 them going to their contacts, Send Send, Send, Send everybody 0:20:40.480 --> 0:20:41.520 on their friends lists. 0:20:41.960 --> 0:20:44.360 Men and women take selfies differently. 0:20:45.720 --> 0:20:50.480 When Lebron set the scoring record for the NBA scoring record, 0:20:50.480 --> 0:20:53.720 and you looked at the photo and everyone in the 0:20:53.720 --> 0:20:56.840 photo except for like two people had their hand extended 0:20:56.840 --> 0:21:00.679 like the Statue of Liberty, and they were taking photos 0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:04.320 and video of the moment rather than just soaking it 0:21:04.359 --> 0:21:07.560 all in and enjoying what was going on. 0:21:07.760 --> 0:21:08.440 Rather than that. 0:21:08.800 --> 0:21:10.840 They're like, no, no, no, we want we want to have 0:21:10.880 --> 0:21:14.280 our camera up in the air. Ever, in fact, if 0:21:14.320 --> 0:21:17.119 I remember the guy Phil Knight from Nike and the 0:21:17.240 --> 0:21:19.199 lady he was with were like the only people in 0:21:19.240 --> 0:21:24.960 that one iconic photo. We're not taking taking the picture, Lebron. 0:21:27.119 --> 0:21:29.720 Was JJ Reddick at that game? Was he broadcasting that game? 0:21:29.720 --> 0:21:34.080 Probably not. Congratulations on your new coach, big news in Lakerland. 0:21:34.119 --> 0:21:36.160 You hired a podcast as your coach. 0:21:36.600 --> 0:21:39.680 Congratulations, and I'd like to congratulate you on that ty 0:21:39.760 --> 0:21:40.600 Leu extension. 0:21:42.560 --> 0:21:44.920 Hey, that's fine. We got Jeff van Gundy, so that's 0:21:44.960 --> 0:21:45.240 a win. 0:21:45.960 --> 0:21:51.520 Van Gunday in the house and Gunday like like that move. 0:21:52.320 --> 0:21:52.719 Why not? 0:21:53.119 --> 0:21:56.560 Hey, it's funny you mentioned the target in Englewood. Ever 0:21:56.600 --> 0:21:59.080 since they built Sofi Stadium and now they have the 0:21:59.240 --> 0:22:02.760 into it, don't home the City of Champions, which is 0:22:02.800 --> 0:22:06.159 the nickname of Inglewood. You could have gotten a house 0:22:06.200 --> 0:22:10.480 in Inglewood about ten or fifteen years I think maybe 0:22:10.520 --> 0:22:14.080 fifteen years ago for around four hundred thousand dollars right Inglewood. 0:22:14.880 --> 0:22:19.080 The median house price in the hood in Inglewood, one 0:22:19.119 --> 0:22:23.399
