In the past it's been a lot 15 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: of interviews, a lot of conversations with random radio friends 16 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: and people in sports.

There's some stuff that 22 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: took place this week. In fact, this podcast, I'm gonna 23 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: tell a story that happened to me that I have 24 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: not told anyone other than inside the Mallard mansion. So 25 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna share this with you because the people and you, Danny, 26 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: and we've been friends for a while. With the people 27 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: that listen to this. You, the listener to this podcast, 28 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: you've gone above and beyond. Like a lot of people 29 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: will listen to the radio show because that's on the 30 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 1: radio when they're listening, and whoever is on the radio, 31 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: they will listening to. But you've gone out of your way. 32 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: That's one of the cool things about a podcast. One 33 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: of the bad things is the only way you can 34 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: find the show is by searching for it. But one 35 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: of the good things about the podcast is it means 36 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: you really like the show. There's no one that stumbles 37 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: onto a podcast and listens to to a podcast for 38 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: more than a couple of seconds. Am I correct? Danny 39 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: is at a correct perspective on the whole podcast game. 40 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: I think you're right. And usually if I try a 41 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: new podcast, it's because a friend or a family member 42 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: turned to be onto it. I'll give a podcast a chance. 43 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: If somebody gave me a review and uh and said, hey, 44 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: you gotta go check that out. Yeah, it's word of 45 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: mouth advertising, which I've said all along is the most 46 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: important advertising. Word of mouth advertising. And if you listen 47 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: and you sample something, it's like that old bit they 48 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: used to tell us in radio back in the day. 49 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 1: They said, well, just give us a give us a week, 50 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 1: just listen for a week, and then if you like 51 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 1: the show, that's great. If or not, you can find 52 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: something else. And they determined that people form habits within 53 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: that amount of time. That if you start listening to 54 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: a radio show for a week or two weeks or 55 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 1: whatever it is, whatever that bliss point is, and then 56 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: you just keep listening because it's now you formed a 57 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: new habit. And the podcast. I think if you listen 58 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: to a podcast and it's like all right, I'm onto 59 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: the next, that's it. But but if somebody in your family, 60 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: like if an uncle or an aunt or a cousin 61 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 1: says I got this really good podcast, you're like, oh man, 62 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: I gotta listen. You know, it's like that must be 63 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: really good. That old So it's more like my brother 64 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 1: or sister if my aunt or mom told me about 65 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: a podcast. I'm not listening to that. Well, my my 66 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: wife will recommend certain podcasts some time to time for 67 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 1: me to listen to when I'm on the trip. The 68 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: great Old Pinter sent something, But I I don't have 69 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: a lot of time. I'm doing my own thing, Danny, 70 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: as you know, so it's hard to have a lot 71 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: of time to listen. Unfortunately, when you get back from 72 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: your road trip across America, I'm interested and not only 73 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: what happens on that road trip, but what you listen to. 74 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: Maybe you heard some local radio, some new podcasting. It's 75 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: gonna be interesting to see what you had in your 76 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: ears during the trip. Yeah. I will definitely do a 77 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: lot on the plane, for sure. I plan on. I 78 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: can't sleep on planes, so I plan on listening to 79 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: a lot of podcast content when I'm when I'm in 80 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: the plan and that's I'm you know, flying on. We'll 81 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 1: go over the itinerary at some point this weekend, because 82 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: I know you're very concerned about when I'm flying and 83 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: when I'm not in what hotels I'm staying at, where 84 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: I'm staying very important, very important content, the content you 85 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: need wrong, But on this edition, the Friday edition of 86 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: the Fifth Hour podcast.

So I spent another week can at the beach. 92 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 1: This is our new thing. We got a tent, so 93 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: I'm not used to being in the sun. I'm like 94 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: a dracula. I can't see sunlight. But I do sit 95 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 1: in the in the in the tent, which is cool. 96 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 1: So it's like a beach caban. Have you if you 97 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,599 Speaker 1: seen these these half tents. They've got like windows on 98 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: the side, and you feel like you're at a resort 99 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: somewhere in you know, the beautiful part of the Caribbean 100 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: or something along. That's mismazing. So I was also on 101 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 1: the beach on a windy day in Malibu and I 102 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: saw people chasing there. Yeah, well I have mastered the 103 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: art of tying down said tent on a windy day. 104 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 1: But anyway, So I spent another week at the beach 105 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: other weekend. It's my new routine and I enjoy getting 106 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 1: my my walk on the sandy waters of the Mighty 107 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: Pacific out in the distance there. And uh So this 108 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 1: past weekend was with the wife and we had a 109 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 1: surprise surprise my cousin. I've told this, sir. She she 110 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: and her family moved from Houston. She's got three little 111 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 1: munchkie's and they live real close to where we live there, 112 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 1: not far from the north Woods. And so it's always 113 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,359 Speaker 1: cool to hang out with family. And most of my 114 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: family has either died at this point wow where they 115 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 1: live back east, thus me traveling across the country to 116 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: see family. Uh. And so there's not a lot of 117 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: family in these parts, certainly not my family in laws. 118 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: I have a fair amount of in laws that live 119 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: around here, but but not not my extended family. So uh, 120 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: I don't don't have a lot. It's not geographically desirable 121 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: to see them because they're not around here. Very expensive 122 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: as you know. Uh. We're at the beach and out 123 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: having a beach to and they came by and they 124 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: met us, and things got a little carried away. Dany. 125 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: I'm very competitive, as you know, a competitive human being. Uh. 126 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 1: And we were playing catch with a nerf football on 127 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 1: the beach. Now when I play Nerve football, Okay, when 128 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: I when I'm out there playing football, I'm a combination 129 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: of Tom Brady, a little bit of Brett Far, a 130 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: little bit of Far from not with his pants down, 131 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: but a little bit of a Far mixed in there. 132 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: Maybe some Mark Wilson no no, no, no, no no 133 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: that no no, that Jim Everett who listens to the 134 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: show occasionally at Ultial Ramps quarterback. So a little bit 135 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: of this, a little bit of that. I'm kind of 136 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: doing my thing there and we're having a great time, 137 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: and it was a lot of fun. So I'm in 138 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: the middle of playing catch with it is me, the wife, 139 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: my cousin, her husband. We're all playing catch on the beach. 140 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: Now I'm the closest guy to the water. Listen, these 141 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: people are throwing the football over my head. It's going 142 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: to the ocean. So I gotta go in the ocean 143 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: and get the damn nerf ball back.

So We're digging and 170 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 1: digging and digging and digging. I'm getting really involved, really 171 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: involved in this. He says, Hey, I want to moat. Okay, 172 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:16,839 Speaker 1: I said, I know how to build a moat. Come on, 173 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 1: my last name is Mallard Mallow the moat. Uh. And 174 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: so I started digging around the base of the castle. Tom. Remember, yes, 175 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: that's right. So I'm I'm working up a sweat. Like 176 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 1: I'm getting into this. I you know, it's kind of 177 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 1: late afternoon, so it's not too hot. But I'm digging 178 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: and I'm digging. I get really involved. I mean, I'm 179 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: going for it. I'm I'm building the greatest moat, and 180 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: and and so then the water starts coming up because 181 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: it's getting too hot, the tides going higher and higher. 182 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: And now now we gotta, you know, keep digging the 183 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 1: moat out. The castle's being impeded. Here, Dan, this is 184 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: not going well for me. It's like a it's like 185 00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: a comedy of areas. It's like one after a dollar. 186 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 1: I am the definition of a loser. We're doing this 187 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: and anyway, to make a long story, a little shorter. 188 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: Do you want to hear the good news or the 189 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: bad news? Always start with the bad news first. Now 190 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:18,439 Speaker 1: I want to give you the good news this time, 191 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: let me give you the good news. All right, there 192 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: we get the good. So the good The good news, Danny, 193 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: is this thing was like the freaking Eiffel Tower. Okay, 194 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: it was the taj Mahal of sand castles. And we 195 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: did it with limited matures. I had my bare hands 196 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: and we did it. Next thing I know, I just 197 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: saw this white thing flying at my face. So it 198 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 1: was great. Came out wonderful. Mason was very happy, the 199 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: kid was, everyone's impressed. So the bad news is it's 200 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 1: the sand castle surprise. As I am busily building the 201 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: most amazing sand castle this kid's ever seen. Wink wink. 202 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: Not note, I got my watch on him, Like you know, 203 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: it's covered in sand, So why don't I Why don't 204 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: I put my watch off to the side. I have 205 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: like an Apple watch things, so why don't I put 206 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: it off the side. And as I'm doing inventory, I 207 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: noticed that there's something missing that's very important to me, 208 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 1: that is no longer where it's supposed to be. Oh no, 209 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: And and I had that moment that come to Jesus, 210 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: moment where I realized I had a little cartoon bubble 211 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: in my head. It's like, what have you done, you dufus, 212 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: You're an income poop, You're a nimrod. What have you done? You? Moron? 213 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: Hand to God, Danny. I had this moment because in 214 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: my haste to build the greatest sand castle and history 215 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: of that beach, I sacrificed my wedding ring. Sacrifice. My 216 00:11:55,120 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: wedding ring gone gone. So then, of course what happens 217 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: after that, Well, everyone who was with us all starts 218 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: digging around trying to find the wedding band. By this point, Danny, 219 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: though it flipped off your finger. Yeah, when I was 220 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: building the sand castle with my hands, I didn't realize 221 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 1: that the you know it had come on and he 222 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: went flying on. He took a turn. I thought your 223 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: watch was gonna wash into the ocean. No, No, the 224 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: watch was fine. The watch was fine. The damn wedding ring. 225 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: Because I guess I have big knuckles and I have 226 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: my fingers. I've lost some weight over the years since 227 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: I got married, and so we're trying to find it. 228 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 1: You know, here I am. I'm always the guy at 229 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: the beach mocking the people with metal detectors, like, yeah, 230 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: but losers. Who's who leaves any money at the beach? 231 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:51,199 Speaker 1: You know? And um, we couldn't find it and that's it. 232 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: So I gotta get a new wedding ring. You know 233 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: the phrase needle in a haystack? How about a wedding 234 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 1: ring on the beach? Good luck? Good luck on that 235 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 1: the thing I think is buried at sea. I have 236 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:13,959 Speaker 1: a theory that when I lost it digging the moat, 237 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: I think it came out when I was digging the 238 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 1: moat and the ocean reclaimed the ring. So I, in 239 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: my head, Danny, I buried the ring at sea ceremonially. 240 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 1: And then part of me also says, wait a minute, 241 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: some dude with the metal detective just ponder ring at 242 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: a shop and got like fifty bucks for it or 243 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: something like that. You know, that's the other part of 244 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 1: the Usually you just bury the leave Yeah, don't, mama, 245 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 1: don't bear the wedding ring. Mama, m uh yeah. So Now, 246 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: how did my wife take the news. How did she 247 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: take the news? Well, she actually took it better than 248 00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:00,719 Speaker 1: I did, surprising, Like I'm just she's dealt with a 249 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 1: lot of bull crap on her job. He's a nine 250 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,679 Speaker 1: one one operator, And you were like, all right, we'll 251 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: just we'll get another one. You know, I think there 252 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 1: would probably be more hysterics if it was a woman's 253 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 1: wedding ring. Yeah, because those are far more expensive. Obviously, 254 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: that is correct. That is correct. She my wife was 255 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: very good rolling with the punches. And on the ride home, 256 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: I was mumbling, Danny from the beach. I was mumbling profanity, 257 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: blank my blank and blank you. I'm saying, what a 258 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: moron I am? You know when I'm an old man? Now, 259 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: who does this? Who loses their wedding ring on the bat? Yeah, 260 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: and so quit In the big picture, it's it's not 261 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: a big deal. And I've talked to some of my 262 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: other friends in radio. I told one person, so I 263 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: didn't really talked to many people. One person and he said, 264 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 1: because he happened to text me when this was all 265 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: going down and I didn't get back to everybody, might 266 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: do the radio show back east. So I responded to 267 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 1: him and I said, well, I'm in the middle of 268 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: a crisis going on here. I've lost my wedding ring. 269 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: And he said, oh yeah, I don't worry about that, 270 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: he said. He said. I lost my ring in the 271 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: front yard of my house, he said, And he told 272 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: me to get one of those rubber wedding bands as 273 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: a replacement. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what people wear 274 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: to the gym. Yeah, so I have a backup. I 275 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: don't know if you can see that. It's a backup. 276 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: This is my backup. It's just a use of metal, 277 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: like a junkle metal, which is what I have right now. 278 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: But I think I'm gonna get something a little more 279 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: sleek than this. This is my backup. So and I've 280 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: known the lesson now when I go to the beach, 281 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: I know my wife would be very concerned about the 282 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: women hitting on me at the beach. But I will 283 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 1: not be wearing my wedding ring anymore when I go 284 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: to the beach. Attention, ladies, if you'd like to flirt 285 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: with me, I'll be at the beach. I don't think 286 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: we have to worry about that. But unless they're blind, 287 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: and may be blind, they will mermaids and they don't 288 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: know any better. Yeah, there mermaids. There you go. That's 289 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: my That is my sand castle surprise last weekend, And 290 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: that's an original story. I've not told that on radio. Yeah, 291 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: this is the first time I've I've talked about this 292 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: publicly other than one person outside of this and so 293 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: that is the latest life event that took place. So 294 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: afternoon would. Forget the sand Castle surprise, It's all about 295 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: that afternoon. Normally people think of it as morning would, 296 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: but it's an afternoon. One went to your neck of 297 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: the woods in southern California, but veteran move my Tinderny 298 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 1: and I we left in the morning. We knew if 299 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: we had waited till the afternoon to try to drive there, 300 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: that we would have got there in the dark nighttime 301 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: where I grew up in the o C. Yeah, and 302 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: visited Grandma Shirley, who was one now God bless her. 303 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: She had a fall oh um. And it wasn't inside 304 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: her house. It was her walking around the streets of 305 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: Long Beach to try to go visit somebody the l 306 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 1: b C. Yeah, she's stubborn. She fell off a curb. 307 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 1: So we were like redressing some of her wounds and uh, 308 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 1: you had lunch with her. How great? If you live 309 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: long enough, just walking falling, you end up all messed up. 310 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 1: What an amazing thing life is that you start out 311 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: you're very fragile, and at the end you're very fresh, exactly. 312 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 1: And she gets pulled over by the police there, not 313 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 1: because she's a gangster in the LBC, but because they think, hey, 314 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,880 Speaker 1: there's this crazy old lady walking around. What's she doing 315 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,360 Speaker 1: out there by herself? Okay, all right, yes, you're right. 316 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: You need attention when you're a toddler, and you need 317 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 1: attention when you're that much of a senior citizen. So 318 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 1: we were giving Grandma Shirley some love. Then we left 319 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 1: in the afternoon the later afternoon and get to California 320 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: Adventure Park. Now I pulled a Ben Maller on this 321 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 1: because our regular podcast listeners will remember when you were 322 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 1: upset about the cost of parking in downtown l A 323 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 1: for the Super Bowl radio row. You did the Mallard 324 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: calculator for the rest of that evening, where whenever we 325 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 1: got something for free, you are like, there's twenty towards 326 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: of my parking, there's five towards my parking.

It was more of a food and wine 398 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: festival vibe than it was a ride night. Now we're 399 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 1: the rides all open.

They were supposed to all be open. 401 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: When we ran to the Car's Ride around ten, we 402 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 1: wanted to get on cars. The ride park employees lined 403 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: up blocking it off. We get there and they're like, yeah, 404 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 1: we're having technical difficulties with the ride. It's closed temporarily. 405 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: All right, let's go try another one. So we did 406 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:13,239 Speaker 1: get on Monsters, Inc. Which was fun.

It's the color show they do. I've never 411 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 1: seen that, so I got to see that pretty awesome. 412 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,439 Speaker 1: But the Disney version of the Bellagio, Yes, and I 413 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: had never seen that, so that was really cool. But 414 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: definitely the highlight of the night because I was teasing 415 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:47,919 Speaker 1: my Tenderoni all week long about the Woody That's hilarious. 416 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: That is good. The afternoon Woody food was full price, right, 417 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: have our fair? I mean they didn't discount the food, right, 418 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 1: that was the same. Yeah. And here's the crazy part. 419 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 1: We because of that Dodgers Stadium experience, we thought the 420 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 1: food was priced okay. After yeah, after being gouged at 421 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: Dodgers Stadium, They're like, oh, it's been so bad. Yeah. 422 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: I mean I looked at my bank statement the next 423 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: day and I spent like thirty five bucks on food. 424 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: I'm like, that's cool. Yeah. I have not been to 425 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 1: Disney And while I never get invited to these, I 426 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 1: heart things, but a lot of the time, because it's 427 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 1: on the it's during the weekend, I can't go. That's 428 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 1: part of the problem. A lot of these radio promotions. 429 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: What would it take, Danny, What would I have to 430 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: do to get a Ben Maller night at Disneyland? What 431 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 1: do you think there's no chance that will ever happen, right, 432 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 1: zero chance that would ever take place. Yeah, I think 433 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,439 Speaker 1: it would have to be morning drive or afternoon drive 434 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 1: for an I heeart property. Yeah, all right, well that's cool. 435 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,479 Speaker 1: And I've not I've not. I've never been to one 436 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: of those radio nights at Disneyland. I've never been able 437 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: to attend because I would have to take a night 438 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 1: off from work to go. Otherwise I couldn't go because 439 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,880 Speaker 1: they're always on Monday through Thursday, and that's what I'm 440 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: doing the show Sunday night through Thursday night in the 441 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: Friday morning. So you know, now kick the coverage listeners 442 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: probably remember Clay Travis used to give me hell talk 443 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,399 Speaker 1: for taking a morning off. If I want to raffle 444 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: from work or knew somebody or had tickets and I 445 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 1: try to take a morning off, he wouldn't let it go. 446 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: For two weeks. He'd be talking about it. He'd be like, Yeah, 447 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: this slacker taking a day off to go to Disneyland. Well, 448 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 1: that's like what Clay did, is what I do with Eddie, 449 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,640 Speaker 1: Because Eddie misses the show every year, like he did 450 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:39,479 Speaker 1: this week for the NFL Draft. To go to the draft. 451 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 1: He goes to the either the draft or the draft party. 452 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: He's picked up so many nicknames on the show because 453 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 1: of missing the show to attend the draft. It's it's 454 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: fascinating and it's it is one of the big events 455 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,719 Speaker 1: that we have on the sports radio calendar. As you know, Danny, 456 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: the NFL Draft is a big thing. We have more 457 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 1: people listening during the draft of my guy Eddie, and 458 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 1: he got That's how he got the nickname Steamboat Willie 459 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: because he missed a show to attend a draft party 460 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: at Disneyland, so he gave him the nickname Steamboat Willie. 461 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 1: His latest nickname he just picked up this week. I 462 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 1: don't think he knows about it yet, but it's actually 463 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: involves tonight because tonight and I think five o'clock Eddie 464 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 1: is meeting some listeners at Nacho Daddy in Vegas. So 465 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 1: that's one of his new nicknames, Nacho Daddy. We've added 466 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 1: that as a nickname. Stop Eddie and yeah. So, but 467 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: that's because he's been, you know, every year the draft, 468 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,400 Speaker 1: like he's just caning out in Vegas and good for him. 469 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 1: He loves the draft.

All right, So he's eighty two, 495 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 1: but he's a legend, Yeah, in Hollywood's Hollywood Royalty, old Hollywood. Alright, 496 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: can I guess here? Yeah, take a shot here? All right, 497 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: he's eighty two, eighty two. I'm gonna guess his girlfriend 498 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:28,400 Speaker 1: is thirty nine. Alright, thirty nine, Now that would be 499 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:36,159 Speaker 1: very young, but that would be something you could say, Okay, no, no, no, no, 500 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: believe it or not. Quarter to the tabloids, Alpacino, eighty 501 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: two years old, his girlfriend is twenty eight? And where 502 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 1: do white women at? Wow? I was more than ten 503 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: years off. Twenty eight years old? How about he's a 504 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: legend more ways than one. And this woman she's apparently 505 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,080 Speaker 1: in she's got a fetish for like old Holly. You 506 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: would that's her thing. I don't know her name, and 507 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 1: she's not famous or anything like that other than like 508 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 1: sleeping with old dudes in Hollywood. But she supposedly, according 509 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: to I think it was the New York Post, the 510 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: woman who's dating of Maccino is eighty two, was out 511 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 1: with Clint Eastwood, who's ninety one. Wow, that man, How 512 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: do you end up in that? That's why I guess 513 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: I from what I understand, she's she loves rich men, 514 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: and this is her way to hang out with celebrities, 515 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: and she's okay doing what she has to do to 516 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: get to hang out and live a jet setting lifestyle. 517 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 1: That's the equivalent to Grandma Shirley going out on a 518 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: date with a twenty eight year old dude. Yeah, exactly, exactly. 519 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: You should tell when you talk to Grandma Shirley, Say hey, 520 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: Grandma Shirley, why dont you get some twenty eight year 521 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 1: old guy over here?

All right? 524 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 1: Uh so some of the other is our stories. How 525 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: about this one. Let's see if you can guess how 526 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: many a new Guinness record Guinness World Record has been 527 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 1: said for stacking Eminem's not Peanut M and M's, but 528 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: regular Eminem's Danny. This popped up on The Benny's Bizarre 529 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 1: this week. What do you think knowing the shape of 530 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 1: an Eminem. What do you think the global record is 531 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 1: for stacking? Eminem instantly started thinking about that game Jenga. 532 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: But these are little Eminem's man very hard, right, Okay, 533 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say forty eight of them. That's a reasonable guest, 534 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: believe it or not, Danny, the record had been the 535 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: previous record was six. The new record is seven. Yea 536 00:30:54,880 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: does seven? Doesn't that seem within the realm of possibility? Yeah? 537 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 1: That doesn't seem right, Like I mean, I guess it's 538 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: hard to do. But when you're talking about a world record, 539 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: people are always able to, you know, blow your mind 540 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: with the number that they're hitting. Yeah. Yeah, this guy 541 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 1: seven seven is the record. I feel like you could 542 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 1: do this live on your show and beat that record. Yeah, 543 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 1: I would agree. So this guy who set the record, 544 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 1: he also holds the Guinness record for the most balanced 545 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: eggs on the back of the hand. How many eggs 546 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: do you think this guy balanced on the huh? Five? Now, 547 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 1: this actually is impressive. Eighteen eggs. Wow, that's impressive. Eighteen eggs. 548 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 1: That's a dozen and a half eggs right there. Because 549 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: of the way they're shaped. I wouldn't think you could, 550 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: you know, do more than a few. Yeah, I agree 551 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 1: with you. But there you go. That's that's part of 552 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 1: Ben's are I love this story? Now? I as a kid, 553 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 1: my mom had the Breakfast series, and I love the 554 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 1: Breakfast series. Every kid does because it's drinking, you're eating sugar. 555 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 1: What he doesn't love sugar in the morning anyway. So 556 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: I was never a big fan of milk. Didn't like it. 557 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 1: I still don't like it. And the people that make 558 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 1: the orange juice brand, Tropic Canna, do you see this, Danny? 559 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 1: They announced this week that they have created a cereal 560 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 1: that is designed to be mixed specifically with orange juice. 561 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 1: So that's that sounds like a wonderful idea. I thought 562 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 1: this was a like a fake story when I don't 563 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 1: want orange juice in my cereal. No, no, no, it's 564 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 1: it's a special crunchy cereal and you add the orange 565 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: juice to the to the syria. No, because fresh milk 566 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 1: is aching in the cereal. Yeah juice. I don't want acid. 567 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 1: I don't want to sit it. I disagree. You have 568 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 1: got to be kidding me, Ah, this is something I 569 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: would I would try. He sent out a press release 570 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: says it's specifically intended to mix with orange juice, the 571 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 1: cereal instead of milk, in honor of National Orange Juice Day. 572 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: This is a day for everything.
