The old Rangers bibble head 0:02:20.200 --> 0:02:22.800 had like a cowboy hat on. I remember that, but 0:02:22.960 --> 0:02:26.240 most of them were pretty much the same, pretty much 0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:29.799 the same, those old old bobbleheads. All right, enough of 0:02:29.800 --> 0:02:33.320 those dopey holiday So on this the Sunday Pop, we 0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:35.120 will get to the mailbag.

Open the door, 0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:43.040 you're a hack and a little pop goes to the 0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:44.440 culture and we'll get to the mail bag as well. 0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:49.600 But open the door. So they follow up a podcast exclusive, 0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:53.799 podcast exclusive follow up to a story that we had 0:02:53.840 --> 0:02:58.120 mentioned on the Overnight Show the other night. You heard 0:02:58.160 --> 0:03:01.680 this play out live all on radio, but now you 0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:03.880 are about to hear, as Paul Harvey would say, the 0:03:03.960 --> 0:03:07.440 rest of the story. So I try to have an 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:09.960 open door policy. We went several years where we weren't 0:03:10.000 --> 0:03:12.480 allowed to have anyone in studio. I wasn't even studio. 0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:15.240 I was doing the show from a remote location. So 0:03:15.720 --> 0:03:19.560 now that things are back to normal, in biting listeners back, 0:03:19.600 --> 0:03:23.600 we've had Sean the Hood Guy in CA, Terror, Sean 0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:28.520 from Arizona, from Phoenix to stop by, Hi Eddie, all 0:03:28.560 --> 0:03:32.520 those guys. So I got an email this week from 0:03:32.600 --> 0:03:35.760 a guy named Chris and he's like, hey, you know, 0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:39.240 I'm a fan. He was all excited because he had 0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:43.840 driven past a street sign on Interstate five that had 0:03:43.920 --> 0:03:48.000 said Saddleback College and he's like, that's cool, that's where 0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:48.760 you went to school. 0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:49.000 You know. 0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:51.640 It's like, you know, he's a big fan of the show. 0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:56.280 And let me give you the backstory. So the this 0:03:56.400 --> 0:03:59.160 is Global Exclusives. I said, So Chris lives in North Carolina. 0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:03.720 He works on it. He's from Wisconsin, from the Milwaukee area, 0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:06.360 and he has been a fan for about ten years. 0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:10.160 But he's not a call. Not a call. He's on 0:04:10.200 --> 0:04:12.240 social media, but he's not like on there all the time. 0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:14.600 He does it stuff. So he's got a regular day 0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:18.799 job and he listens to the podcast and he'll email 0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:20.799 me every once in a while and usually try to bust 0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:24.040 my balls and annoy me. But he's emailed me off 0:04:24.040 --> 0:04:26.240 and on for years, and he's post stuff about the 0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:27.680 show on social media. So he's a big fan of 0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:30.000 the show. And I sup. I was like, hey, listen, 0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:33.359 guy's in town, he's in the area. Why not have 0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:38.279 him stop by and hang out? And so, I said, 0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:40.440 he emailed me to say that he had seen the 0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:43.400 sense I was like, let's just email Coop let him 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:46.040 know you're going to be there, and I told him 0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:48.479 when to show up. I gave him the address. I said, 0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:52.400 that's it. But I didn't realize the guy was staying 0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:56.640 in La Joya. He wasn't even staying in La is 0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:59.880 in San Diego. But he's like, oh, yeah, I love 0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:02.600 to be there. I'll drive up, you know, yeah, I'd 0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:06.320 love to meet everybody. And so, okay, we're on. So 0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:10.720 he emails Coop. I like, okay, he'll come by, and 0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:13.040 then we get to the studio. I'm doing the show 0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:15.040 and it was around the time and then he was 0:05:15.040 --> 0:05:17.640 supposed to be there and I didn't see him, and 0:05:17.680 --> 0:05:20.320 so I went out. I looked in the courtyard. I 0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:21.080 didn't see him. 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:21.920 So I go back. 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:24.080 I'm like, well, maybe he canceled. Just a long drive. 0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:26.680 I thought, well that maybe he just canceled. So then 0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:28.840 Coop comes in about thirty minutes later. He says, I 0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:30.800 keep getting this email from this guy and he wants 0:05:30.839 --> 0:05:33.840 to come in, and I'm like, uh, yeah, yeah, I 0:05:34.080 --> 0:05:35.640 let him in. There there's no I know, I know 0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:37.680 who they got and uh. And Coop was a little 0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:41.440 concerned because he didn't know. The guy is not a caller, right, 0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:43.520 so he didn't interact with Coop. He interacted with me, 0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:47.280 and so I was like, open the door, right, and 0:05:47.800 --> 0:05:50.479 Coop didn't want to let him in. So then I 0:05:50.560 --> 0:05:52.640 went out. I tried to find him again, so this 0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:55.680 is not my second time outside. I couldn't find so 0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:57.520 then I have to I go my email. I emailed him. 0:05:57.520 --> 0:06:00.159 I said, listen, here's where you need to go. Is 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:03.000 the exact door. I'll let you in it. So then 0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:04.680 we had this conversation. 0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:04.599 On the air. 0:06:04.680 --> 0:06:10.280 We're going back and forth and Eddie. Eddie's like kind 0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:12.960 of an agreement. And then I explained the guy had 0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:16.000 driven from far away and he's a big fan of 0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:20.080 the show. And then so we convinced Eddie to kind 0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:21.560 of go out and check him out to make sure 0:06:21.560 --> 0:06:22.840 he was all right because I was on the air. 0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:25.560 And so eventually it worked out the guy's name is Chris, 0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:29.560 good guy, and we were able to work out and 0:06:29.680 --> 0:06:33.920 eventually opened the door. It did happen. And not only that, 0:06:34.839 --> 0:06:37.599 this is how quickly Coop and Iowa Sam changed. 0:06:37.360 --> 0:06:38.520 Danny g Oh. 0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:43.000 He must have brought food, Yeah, brought donuts and not 0:06:43.120 --> 0:06:47.520 just donuts. Chris went to like this really cool famous. 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:50.839 Oh I saw the leftover. There were a couple leftover 0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:53.680 when I got there on Thursday afternoon. 0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:57.320 Yes, yes, so he had gone to this bougie donut 0:06:57.400 --> 0:07:00.560 shop in LA that is he looked. He did research 0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:02.200 on the internet. He's like, this is like one of 0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:04.279 the top donut shops. And so he brought those in 0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:05.719 and yeah, they. 0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:07.680 Put like fruit loops on top of donuts. 0:07:07.760 --> 0:07:12.320 Yeah, like bacon fruit loops, all kinds of interesting things 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:14.000 you would not normally see. 0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:14.560 On a donut. 0:07:14.640 --> 0:07:16.880 And it was, you know, it was great. I didn't 0:07:16.920 --> 0:07:18.960 eat any I took a couple home to eat later, 0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:20.640 which I did eat. They were really good, not as 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:23.480 good as if I eating them fresh. So that was 0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:24.360 open the door. 0:07:25.160 --> 0:07:27.560 Funny because when I got to work Thursday afternoon for 0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:31.640 Covino and Rich, Jason Stewart, the producer of Doug Gottlieb, 0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:34.480 showed me the box and offered me a donut. I 0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:35.800 thought they were from him. 0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:40.400 Oh is that right? Well, I didn't realize there were 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.880 that many left because because Eddie was eating a bunch 0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:45.120 and Coop and Sam were eating them, and I took 0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:47.320 a couple. So there must have. He must have brought 0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:48.280 a ton of donuts then. 0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:51.480 And this was right before I had broken my streak 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:55.800 with your peanut brittle because I told Jay Stew I said, noah, man, 0:07:55.840 --> 0:07:58.240 I haven't had the dessert in like thirteen weeks. And 0:07:58.240 --> 0:08:01.280 He's like, you're kidding me. Donuts don't even look good 0:08:01.320 --> 0:08:04.320 to me. Aka, I'm gonna walk back to my backpack 0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:05.760 and eat more of the peanut brittle. 0:08:07.760 --> 0:08:09.840 Yeah. Well, you know what, if you're gonna eat a donut, 0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:12.800 you gotta eat pretty quick. Olthoughise Like it's the same 0:08:12.800 --> 0:08:15.320 thing with fast food, Like every minute that goes by 0:08:15.400 --> 0:08:17.920 with fast food against worse. Some donuts, there's like a 0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:20.040 sweet spot within an hour and a half, you can 0:08:20.080 --> 0:08:20.320 eat it. 0:08:20.400 --> 0:08:23.640 Yeah. Yeah, they were stale. Loraina said, oh my god, 0:08:23.640 --> 0:08:26.320 the one I ate was stale and I still ate it. Yeah, 0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:27.720 because it's a donut. 0:08:27.800 --> 0:08:31.000 And it's free. And she's in radio and yeah, and 0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:34.720 how that works. Uh so you are a hack the 0:08:34.800 --> 0:08:37.760 other day and Benny Versus the Penny is airing more today, 0:08:37.840 --> 0:08:42.120 so check that out on regional cable television distributed by NBC. 0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:45.839 Benny Versus the Penny the TV Show, but after the 0:08:45.960 --> 0:08:49.120 taping of the TV show with Looney Tunes. So I 0:08:49.600 --> 0:08:53.840 get a message on my phone and it's like, it's 0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:57.559 this weird direct message from a fellow Fox Sports radio 0:08:57.600 --> 0:09:00.160 show's account, which is out of context and make makes 0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:03.679 no sense. So I was like whatever, and I ignore it. 0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:08.800 I mostly look at Instagram. I look at like different 0:09:08.840 --> 0:09:11.080 recipes because I'm like a middle aged woman. I guess 0:09:11.120 --> 0:09:13.880 I look at recipes. So it did make a sense, 0:09:13.920 --> 0:09:15.439 but whatever, I forgot about it. So then I went 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:18.600 and before I got ready for bed, I was like, 0:09:18.640 --> 0:09:20.600 I checked. I always checked the email one last time 0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:23.600 to see what's going on. So I checked the email 0:09:24.640 --> 0:09:29.520 and I'm looking around and uh, I get this message 0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:32.840 from from Instagram. It says you have to you have 0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:35.400 to verify your kind of there's a new log in 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:41.160 uh from a city that I don't live in and 0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:45.160 nobody I know lives in. And I'm like, okay, so 0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:47.679 this is you need a secure your account. So I 0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:51.280 clicked a button to secure the Instagram account and then 0:09:51.640 --> 0:09:53.559 it has a number.

When he first got hired, 0:10:49.400 --> 0:10:52.600 they're like, think of soccer when you say his name Sager. 0:10:53.480 --> 0:10:54.520 I mispronounced his name. 0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:57.600 Of him, fellow Raiders fan, He's a very cool dude. 0:10:57.760 --> 0:10:58.480 Oh I love Sager. 0:10:58.559 --> 0:10:58.719 Yeah. 0:10:58.720 --> 0:11:00.400 He In fact, he was at the holiday party.

Anyway, so 0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:11.400 I I messaged him. Eventually it was a I'd stayed 0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:13.040 up for like an extra hour. We were going back 0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:15.600 and forth. I had to do this like facial recognition 0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:19.320 video to Instagram, and then that didn't work, and then 0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:22.400 so then I was like texting Elijah to text me 0:11:22.440 --> 0:11:24.560 the code so I could type the code in and 0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:28.520 we eventually got it settled. Settled. So you're a hack 0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:30.480 and maybe you're listening to this podcast right now, and 0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:32.679 if you are the person that hacked into the Instagram account, 0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:34.800 you're not a good hacker because you didn't change anything 0:11:35.040 --> 0:11:43.600 and you're a schmuck. Hop goes the culture and strike 0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:47.600 up the band? Is Ohio al ready to go?

Study has revealed 0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:16.040 the most expensive and the least expensive states for fast 0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:21.760 food fast food. You see this. It's a good story, 0:12:22.320 --> 0:12:26.559 a decent story. It's happened recently. What do you think 0:12:26.559 --> 0:12:30.040 the most expensive in the United States? All fifty states? 0:12:30.080 --> 0:12:33.800 What is the most expensive location for fast food, which 0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:38.800 is based on these numbers. They are eighteen percent eighteen 0:12:38.880 --> 0:12:41.920 point twenty nine percent more expensive than the average price 0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:43.040 of fast food. 0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:44.920 It's got to be New York, right. 0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:50.560 No, believe it. It is not. It is Anchorage, Alaska. 0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:54.440 Oh wow, Yeah, Anchorage, Alaska is the most expensive for 0:12:54.480 --> 0:12:56.359 fast food. And Honolulu, Hawaii. 0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.760 I should have known Hawaii because I've eaten at a 0:12:59.760 --> 0:13:02.400 fat food place there. We're like, holy crap. 0:13:03.120 --> 0:13:09.080 Yeah, it's ridiculous. The top three are Anchors, Alaska, Honolulu, Hawaii, Fairbanks, Alaska. 0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:11.200 What do you think Number four is all this? 0:13:11.679 --> 0:13:12.760 I mean California. 0:13:13.800 --> 0:13:16.760 It is in California. Which city in California? 0:13:17.760 --> 0:13:18.720 Westlake Village? 0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:23.000 Kind I'll give it to you. Los Angeles, Okay, Los 0:13:23.080 --> 0:13:29.520 Angeles has done yeah, fourth most expensive fast food in 0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:32.040 the entire United States, going to this recent study that 0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:35.920 was done followed by for some reason, Edmund, Oklahoma. Why 0:13:35.960 --> 0:13:39.840 would Edmund, Oklahoma have expensive fast food? 0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:42.920 That's weird. And New York didn't even make the top five. 0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:45.360 It is not in the top five. New York is 0:13:45.440 --> 0:13:49.319 number nine, though they are in the top ten. Oklahoma 0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:55.800 is the outlier. All the other ones are either in Hawaii, Alaska, California. 0:13:55.880 --> 0:14:02.400 There's a lot in Washington state, Tacoma Bellevue, which is 0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:03.600 not far from Seattle. 0:14:04.120 --> 0:14:10.160 That must be like the wealthy neighborhood in Oklahoma. Yes, 0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:12.199 like the mansions are there in the state. 0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:15.920 I don't yeah, I don't know. I mean, maybe it's 0:14:15.920 --> 0:14:18.240 like a big stop on the way in between Texas 0:14:18.280 --> 0:14:20.640 and Oklahoma City or something. Maybe like they could charge 0:14:20.680 --> 0:14:23.720 a lot, but it seems rather somebody from that area 0:14:23.880 --> 0:14:26.760 needs to let us know. Yeah, us, if you're in Oklahoma. 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:30.160 We've got Kyrie who's in Oklahoma City who listens to 0:14:30.160 --> 0:14:33.360 the podcast. He's emailed us every once in a while. Yeah, 0:14:33.400 --> 0:14:34.840 give us a heads up on that. Because you're more 0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:38.360 expensive than New York City for fast food. That makes 0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:41.720 no sense. Now the least expensive what do you think 0:14:41.760 --> 0:14:44.680 the least expensive fast food? Same? 0:14:45.080 --> 0:14:48.520 Oh, let's say Paris, Texas. 0:14:48.880 --> 0:14:52.960 Paris, Texas. No, Dallas is pretty cheap. They're number four. 0:14:53.440 --> 0:14:57.680 He's number five on the cheap category. The cheapest fast food. 0:14:57.680 --> 0:15:00.440 I'll give you the top three, number three, harker Burg, 0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:04.760 West Virginia. They're about eleven percent, eleven percent little more 0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:08.280 than that, cheaper than everyone else. Wheeling West Virginia. 0:15:08.760 --> 0:15:12.680 Oh, Wheeling. Who was our regular caller from Wheeling? 0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:14.080 Oh? What was it? 0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:14.880 Radio Rich? 0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:18.560 Radio Rich? That's right, Radio Rich from Wheeling, West Virginia. 0:15:18.640 --> 0:15:20.080 What happened to Radio Rich? 0:15:21.280 --> 0:15:24.240 I don't know. Maybe I hope he's still around. If 0:15:24.280 --> 0:15:26.360 anybody's heard Radio Rich call the show, let us know. 0:15:26.400 --> 0:15:27.920 But he was in kind of poor health. I don't 0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:31.080 know if anything happened, but he used to call in. Uh. 0:15:31.120 --> 0:15:36.400 And the cheapest how does Burg, Mississippi? How does Burg, Mississippi? 0:15:37.080 --> 0:15:42.400 They are twelve point one percent cheaper and everyone else 0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:43.280 everyone else. 0:15:43.160 --> 0:15:46.080 In there's Isssi S SIDEPPI. 0:15:46.600 --> 0:15:52.360 Yeah, it's all the cheap. The cheapest state overall is Texas, 0:15:52.800 --> 0:15:54.680 but it's all in the South, Like the cheap food 0:15:54.960 --> 0:15:58.240 is in the South, and then the Upper Midwest. That's 0:15:58.880 --> 0:16:02.280 pretty reasonable, but not you know, like Wisconsin's pretty much 0:16:02.320 --> 0:16:06.280 on average, and a lot of the more expensive places 0:16:06.280 --> 0:16:08.960 are on the coast. They can and Alaska and Hawaii 0:16:08.960 --> 0:16:12.560 are by far the most overall. So there you go. 0:16:12.680 --> 0:16:17.000 Fun fact. Fun fact about the most and least expensive 0:16:17.040 --> 0:16:19.320 fast food. Well, I'm not a chess guy. Maybe we 0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:23.280 should talk more chess on the podcast and on radio, 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:27.400 because yet again, there has been a second chess scandal 0:16:27.560 --> 0:16:31.080 involving a sex toy. It has happened. Remember the story 0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:33.040 a couple years ago Danny, the guy that was accused 0:16:33.080 --> 0:16:36.840 of having a certain device, shoved up a certain part 0:16:36.840 --> 0:16:39.440 of his body to indicate what was going on. 0:16:39.920 --> 0:16:41.600 I wish I didn't remember that story. 0:16:42.240 --> 0:16:47.560 It has happened again, this time in China. The Chinese 0:16:48.200 --> 0:16:54.720 Chess Association announced this week that it has banned Yan 0:16:55.960 --> 0:17:00.080 cheng Long from He had recently won the national I 0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:04.480 give him some title in Chinese tennis. But yeah, Yan 0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:10.640 allegedly clenched and unclenched rhythmically to communicate this. This is great. 0:17:11.760 --> 0:17:14.080 I'm reading this right outside of news story. Okay, so 0:17:14.119 --> 0:17:19.840 he rhythmically communicate information by clenching and unclenching. You can 0:17:19.960 --> 0:17:24.920 use your imagination about the chessboard via code to a computer, 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:30.560 which then sent back instructions on what moves to make 0:17:30.720 --> 0:17:35.040 in the form of vibrations back in the you know what, 0:17:35.680 --> 0:17:37.080 the tushy pushy? 0:17:37.359 --> 0:17:42.399 Uh? Yeah, you think that you have to practice with 0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:44.080 those butt muscles ahead of time? 0:17:45.359 --> 0:17:48.119 What are you do? You buy it on Amazon. I 0:17:48.160 --> 0:17:51.960 need some anal beads, some vibrating anal beads is what 0:17:52.080 --> 0:17:57.080 I need to win a chess tournament. God, unreal, man, 0:17:58.520 --> 0:18:01.359 I had no idea that was competitive in chess. I 0:18:01.359 --> 0:18:05.600 had no no concept that it was that competitive. That's 0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:07.480 that's wild to me. That's absolutely two. 0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:10.440 Stand for the Queen's Gambit too. 0:18:13.280 --> 0:18:16.760 What else is on pop goes the culture? Well, this 0:18:16.880 --> 0:18:20.800 is a totally different competition. A thirteen year old child 0:18:21.320 --> 0:18:26.800 has become the first person to beat Tetris on nes 0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:29.679 more than thirty years after its release, no one had 0:18:29.680 --> 0:18:33.359 been able to win Tetris, and a thirteen year old 0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:38.800 kid was able to crack the code. 0:18:38.880 --> 0:18:42.840 It's pretty cool, right, crazy?
