00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: the whoa who. For the record, I would never bring

27
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: a out of state masseuse to the beach. You would not, Noah,

28
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: care how hot she is and how good she is

29
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: with her hands. I'll keep it all in house in

30
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: the beautiful state. So you're California. You're not like a

31
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: certain quarterback has been accused of in You're like a

32
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: pig in slop with that. Well listen, I mean, I'm

33
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: glad he blocked me. He couldn't could be perverted with me.

34
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: He blocked me. You know, I stood up for women, Gascoon,

35
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: these women, these masseusas, because I was ahead of the

36
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: game on that. I was onto that quarterback that this

37
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: guy is a little creepy. You are probably about a

38
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: hundred miles away from me and nowhere near me in

39
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: terms of phones and connectivity online. But I could see

40
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: and feel the smile on your face from ear to ear.

41
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 1: It was just magical for you. Well, you know, you

42
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,239
Speaker 1: hate to see when certain things happened to people that

43
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 1: you know, just the downfall boy, perfect people. Well, everyone

44
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 1: loves a good comeback story. Now to Shaun Watson can

45
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 1: have a good comeback story, right, it might be all

46
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: maybe it's all made up, Gastcount. I've heard people. People

47
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: have emailed me, so it's all made up, And maybe

48
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: it is. You know that I do believe in due

49
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: process and that you are have a chance to defend yourself.

50
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: And these are not criminal matters at this point to

51
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: my knowledge. These are all civil matters. And it does

52
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 1: put the NFL and an interesting pickle because generally when

53
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: it comes to civil cases, they do not do not

54
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: suspend people. Well, and this will be a fascinating case

55
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 1: because you know exactly where this is heading because a

56
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: white owner in Robert Craft was accused of some misdoings

57
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 1: in Florida, and now a black quarterback in Houston is

58
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: accused of some things that are similar. Yeah, so you're

59
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 1: saying they have to not punish Deshaun Watson because he

60
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: did the Bob Kraft thing, and that's yeah. Yeah, I'll

61
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: be curious to see how this thing all plays. But

62
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: the NFL did send I mean they did set a precedent.

63
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: The NFL did set the president and that was actually

64
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: a criminal matter, though that was not a civil matter.

65
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: That was a criminal matter, right right, And this and

66
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: this isn't just some tailback or some strong safety that's

67
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: had a couple of good seasons. This is a This

68
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: is one of their their prominent figureheads as a quarterback

69
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: in the league. It's a quarterback driven league, and this

70
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: guy is one of their shot caller. So you know

71
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: he's he's under the spotlight for for bad reasons. It's unfortunate. Oh,

72
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: it's unfortunate. If he didn't do it. If he did it,

73
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 1: it's not unfortunate at all. No, no, but this just

74
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: this proves why the National Football League is a three

75
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 1: sixty five day a year conversation. This story just right

76
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: up the yin yang. This story will not stop. I mean,

77
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: every day. It's a broken faucet. Drip drip, drip, drip,

78
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: rip rip rip rip rip rip rip rip rip. I

79
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 1: love a good scandal, and I love a good But

80
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: if you're DeShawn Watson and you're in his position, are

81
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 1: you heading right to the bank and saying, let me

82
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: scratch a check and get this thing over with yeah

83
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: it hasn't. That horse left the barn at this point

84
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 1: he had the opportunity. And that's that initial post by

85
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. If this goes the way it's it's headed

86
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 1: this right now. If this doesn't make it, you turn

87
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 1: this story. Yeah, that quote will haunt DeShawn Watson. Yeah, right,

88
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 1: he came out and you know, it seemed like the

89
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: proper thing to say it was one lawsuit, you know, massage,

90
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: and it didn't seem that bad, you know, not great,

91
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: but there are worse things that he has since been

92
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: accused of, Deshaun Watson. And and you know, it goes

93
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: back to we've talked about this a lot with apologies,

94
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 1: right they say you should never apologize as a public figure.

95
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: Right now, Why should you never apologize as a public figure,

96
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 1: because once you apologize, then other people say, well, wait

97
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: a minute, you should apologize for this. It opens up

98
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 1: Pandora's box. Right. It's it's odd too because you know

99
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 1: interpersonal relationship like you know friends, or you know, you

100
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 1: know your your wife or your if your woman, your husband, whatever. Um, yeah,

101
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 1: it's great to apologize, but as a public figure, when

102
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: you apologize, it they creates more stories, and then you

103
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 1: need to issue more apologies. And it's like Deshaun Watson

104
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: coming out saying, you know, I've always treated women properly.

105
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: Now there's a whole you know, a whole line of

106
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 1: women around the building that are like, no, you didn't, Yeah,

107
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 1: you know, and all you and all you needs one

108
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 1: for him to say I've never all he needs one

109
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 1: yeah and eighty And then when you apologize, also, eighty

110
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 1: percent of the people don't believe the apology, right, they

111
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 1: don't think you're being sincere, or they think you're doing

112
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: it because you got caught. And then like the other

113
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: don't give a crap. So what are you really accomplishing?

114
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: Not much? And but that now that wasn't really an

115
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: apology by Deshaun Watson, but it was more of a

116
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: like he was a defense. He was defending, but that

117
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: it is not, you know, true, it was a shakedown

118
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: and all that, well, it was a shakedown. It's a

119
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 1: hell of a shakedown. Is one of the great shakedowns

120
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: of our time. Yeah, I mean, just think too. When

121
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: the season ended and the contract talks were happening with

122
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: with ownership, with the general manager ear and with a

123
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: head coach, wasn't he tweeting or posting Instagram photos with

124
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: his his significant other on a boat. Yeah, this will

125
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 1: take you. This will take us until until kickoff in

126
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: week one. Well it will unless the Shawn plays ball

127
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: ponies up the money. Yeah right. I mean, these are

128
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: civil matters. You can make a civil case go away

129
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: out of court, hush hush settlement. That's it. I scratch

130
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,119
Speaker 1: your back, you scratch my back, the mortification dies down,

131
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: that's it. Uh. And uh, of course it's got to

132
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 1: be a secret financial agreement, which stays secret unless you're

133
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, and then it's no longer secret. Uh. And

134
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: then then that becomes public public record. And now do

135
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: you think he wants out of Houston? Now? Yeah, he'd

136
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: like to be traded to the orchids of Asia day Spot.

137
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: There's nowhere to hide, man, there's nowhere to hide. Yeah.

138
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: It's it is wild though, man, you know, I don't

139
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: know what's true or not. Even he will have a

140
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: chance to defend himself if these things actually go through

141
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: the legal channels. But it is just the preponderance of

142
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: the evidence for Deshaun Watson's in a civil suit. It's

143
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 1: only it's only it's not beyond a reasonable doubt. And

144
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: that's the problem because he was contacting these ladies, according

145
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: to the lawsuits on Instagram, was sliding into d M s.

146
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:36,199
Speaker 1: You know, just normal random women who are massage therapists

147
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: and hey like a massage. And that's that's that was code.

148
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 1: That was we said the other night. It was code

149
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,319
Speaker 1: language for I'd like to screw, But he didn't say that.

150
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: And when you when you open yourself up to discovery,

151
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 1: everything's on the table, text messages, cell phone conversations, Instagram, post, Twitter,

152
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 1: d M, like, everything's out there. So yeah, he's he's

153
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,559

262
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 1: He says, do y'all believe in the paranormal? And if

263
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: you do, have you had any experience? I feel like

264
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: we've been asked this question before r J on this podcast,

265
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 1: or at least maybe on the radio. But yeah, we

266
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: both we both think there's something out there the paranormal. Yeah,

267
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 1: advanced civilizations absolutely, because everything on this planet came from

268
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: somebody somewhere else, right, Everything kind of bounces around and

269
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: all that, So it would be logical to think somewhere

270
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 1: out in the cosmos there are I don't know if

271
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: it's a parallel universe or different dimensions, but ever you

272
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: want to describe it. But yeah, and I have seen

273
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: There's one thing I saw that that in the days

274
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 1: with were drones, I saw these like five uh orbs,

275
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: They were orbs. I was on a hike in l

276
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: A and I saw some orbs that I I've never

277
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 1: seen before or since that I'm convinced for something from

278
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: another world. But I don't know. You always try to

279
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 1: take pictures and video and they never come out right.

280
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: Chris and Iowa writes, and he says, what have you

281
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: set up a pre order waiting list for the book

282
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: you want to write and you charge people five to

283
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 1: ten dollars to be on it. Would that motivate you

284
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: to start writing it? Then you take the book and

285
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 1: all the Mallard Militia pre orders to the publishers and bam,

286
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: done deal. Chris says, or the money could help you

287
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 1: self published the book and you can add a bit

288
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 1: to the show once a month. How's the damn book

289
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: coming along? Accountability and he says he will put his

290
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 1: the first ten dollars in. Chris, that's a great idea, Um,

291
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 1: and that's obviously something I will consider. I am in talks. Um.

292
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 1: This a very slow process, very long process. But I

293
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: have been in talks with someone who is interested in

294
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 1: helping with that project and is in negotiations with a

295
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:15,919
Speaker 1: couple of the publishing houses. So UM, it's really a

296
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 1: case of once that is green lighted. If that gets

297
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: green lighted, then it will go. If not, the self

298
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: publishing thing is an option that's on the table. But

299
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 1: my experience with the Mallamstia and I love the Mallem Militia,

300
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 1: but in the past tried to hawk T shirts and

301
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: things like that. Um, when money is involved, the Mallem

302
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: Militia generally kind of clams up a little bit. But

303
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 1: but I'm glad Chris, you're willing to spend spend the money,

304
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,479
Speaker 1: so I appreciate that. Let's see, uh, let's see page

305
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: down here, page down this is from I'm a pilot.

306
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,119
Speaker 1: I'm a I believe this is from I'm a part Yes,

307
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: it is all right. Uh, he says, Uh, what is

308
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 1: your take on NBA top shot crypto collectibles, this fad?

309
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 1: And why would anyone pay for something that anyone can

310
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: easily view on YouTube and other media? Do you either,

311
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:16,399
Speaker 1: either of you guys? Uh? Seeing that this being trying

312
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 1: to to duplicate this rather as the NBA. Do you

313
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: think we're gonna gonna duplicate this like crypto? He's saying,

314
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 1: And will this die on the line in a few

315
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: years or boom? I need your hot take. Well, he's

316
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 1: talking about non fungible tokens. Is what these things are

317
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 1: called n f t s. We have discussed this. I

318
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,919
Speaker 1: did a monologue about it. Thanks for listening. I'm a

319
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 1: pilot through the monologue at him pointing it out. I

320
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 1: love I'm a pie. I wear that hat. That's a

321
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 1: good looking hattie, got me that m hat solid. But no,

322
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 1: I I am. I guess I'm a pilot kind of

323
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,360
Speaker 1: around our age, I believe so. I think we're all

324
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,120
Speaker 1: of the same age, we all grew up the same way.

325
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 1: You think this is bullshit? Um, and I do. I

326
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 1: keep in mind, I thought bitcoin is bullshit. It's not.

327
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: I'll take the l on that, but it just doesn't

328
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 1: make any sense. It's why own something that you don't

329
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 1: really own? You? To me, it would make sense if

330
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:19,880
Speaker 1: you bought a highlight and every time ESPN, Fox, NBC,

331
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: or CBS played the highlight you got paid five cents.

332
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: That would make sense to me. Just pictures right when

333
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: you have to. When you use pictures that are copyrighted,

334
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 1: those are protected. So yeah, yeah, I used to. When

335
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 1: I worked with Yahoo, I had access and also Fox

336
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 1: Sports dot Com I had access to the Getty Images

337
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:45,439
Speaker 1: amazing greatest. The Getty Images are just outstanding. But the

338
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: subscription prices large, very very expensive, and there's tears to it,

339
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,159
Speaker 1: like I only had access to a small part of it.

340
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 1: But their work is amazing. And yeah, so to answer

341
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: your question, I'm a pilot. Yeah, if it was like that,

342
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 1: I mean it, but it just doesn't make sense to me.

343
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 1: And I think there's I don't understand. I know it's

344
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 1: a to me, it's a fad, But if a fat

345
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:15,160
Speaker 1: sticks around long enough, uh, it becomes a trend and

346
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,120
Speaker 1: then we're we're good to go. But it's not It's

347
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: not for me, so all right, I'm a pilot. Also

348
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 1: says that's a Dallas guy. It is tough seeing Jerry

349
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 1: Jones willing to die on his Dak Prescott terrible contract mountains.

350
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: Have we reached the pinnacle of contract money, especially after

351
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 1: such a downturn in revenue over the last year in

352
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,959
Speaker 1: every sport? And he says, it's not about Patrick Maholmes,

353
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, Mike Trout, Garrett cole, A Mookie Bets, Janice

354
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: Adent to Coombo and all that. And he says, are

355
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: we really in a society now where someone is worth

356
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 1: more than the gross domestic product of a country? And

357
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:03,159
Speaker 1: then he needs He says, there's a to vollu? Is

358
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 1: that the name of it? A small I put a

359
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 1: question mark at the end of it. A small country

360
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 1: in the in the Pacific, about halfway between Hawaii and

361
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:16,360
Speaker 1: Australia and has a gross domestic product of forty seven million.

362
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,400
Speaker 1: Where do you see the endpoint? Or will we ever

363
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 1: see a hundred million a year athlete? Haven't salaries gotten

364
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 1: a bit out of hand? Well, inflation comes into play.

365
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 1: Everything constable the way I look at it, I'm a pilot.

366
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: I don't I don't have a I don't like it,

367
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 1: but I don't have a problem with it because I

368
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: don't want someone putting a cap on how much I

369
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 1: can make. And the sports leagues are making money so

370
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,919
Speaker 1: they can afford to pay Mahomes and Dak Prescott. And

371
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:49,479
Speaker 1: you know, the argument can be made, as much as

372
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 1: I despise Lebron James, to the value of that business,

373
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: Lebron James should be paid a hundred million dollars a

374
00:21:55,440 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 1: year in terms of value added to that professional operation.

375
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: So there there at some point you would assume there's

376
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:11,719
Speaker 1: going to be a waterloo moment. It clearly is not

377
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: the pandemic. It's not the pandemic. These these are just

378
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 1: television shows. You've got to look at professional sports as

379
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: television shows. Fans are not important. We're not We love

380
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: sports and all that, and I'll watch it till the

381
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: day I die. But we learned during the apocalypse of

382
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 1: the show goes on without any fans in the stadiums

383
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: and the arenas and the ballparks. It's all about TV revenue.

384
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 1: They could afford to pay everyone. They lost money, they

385
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 1: didn't make as much money because that's that's extra gravy.

386
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 1: That's extra frosting on the cake, the the hot dogs,

387
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,680
Speaker 1: the peanuts, the nachos, the tickets and and all that.

388
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: But everything else, the TV money, the merchandise, they all

389
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 1: got that. So anyway, I bet I'm a pilot flying

390
00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 1: all over the place. He must see some amazing like

391
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,439
Speaker 1: i've there's other islands out between us, the US and Hawaii, right,

392
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,199
Speaker 1: aren't there some places out there in the middle. I

393
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 1: wonder if he's been a Guam's been to Guama. No, never,

394
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 1: but I'd be I'd be fastened to see if there

395
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 1: was a chance to jump on ourn extra seat, that

396
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: he might have a one. Here we go, he jump

397
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 1: on seven, seven and seven on the weed man. You

398
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: can get your hand out. Your hand out. Now, every

399
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 1: piloting is a copilot. You know that's fine. My guy,

400
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,439
Speaker 1: Victor Brick, the Great Victor Brick Jacob's l a radio legend,

401
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 1: got his start in Guamp, did he really? Yeah? He

402
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,199
Speaker 1: was working, he was he was traveling. He's like a

403
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: bohemian after you grew up in New York, and he

404
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,199
Speaker 1: was traveling around and he ended up in Guam and

405
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,160
Speaker 1: he was working at a restaurant, we should get Vic.

406
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: Promise that when we record these podcasts, Vic is usually working,

407
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: so we can't get him on. Unfortunately, he'd be fun

408
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 1: to have on. Yeah, but Vic has some amazing street

409
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 1: but he lived in Guam. He was working at a

410
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 1: restaurant and some guy came in from the deo station

411
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 1: and they struck up a conversation on paraphrase. I'm probably

412
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: getting this all wrong, but as I remember Vick telling

413
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,919
Speaker 1: me the story, he was working at a restaurant in

414
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 1: Guam and this guy that ran the radio station came

415
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 1: in and like Vic, and you know, give him an

416
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 1: opportunity to work, and that led to a career that

417
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:22,360
Speaker 1: has had thirty forty years probably forty years now in sports,

418
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 1: television and radio for Vic, the Brick Jacobs, good dude

419
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:33,679
Speaker 1: for love. I believe this is from Michael. He recommended

420
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,120
Speaker 1: a couple of guests ideas for future podcasts. He wants

421
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:40,439
Speaker 1: to have us have Clay Travis on r J Bell

422
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:46,360
Speaker 1: as well, he says, and it's this main cabin master crew. Well,

423
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 1: r J would be impossible, I think because the time

424
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 1: that would record this. Uh maybe I think maybe early

425
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 1: on we could do it. Clay I don't know as

426
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 1: Clay do these kind of things. I don't know Clay

427
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 1: does these kind of thing. Clay's got his own operation

428
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: without kick. I don't know if he would sully himself

429
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: to come down to hang out with guys like us,

430
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,719
Speaker 1: but we I'd love to put Clay on. Clay's uh

431
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 1: play has done a great job with his his product,

432
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 1: and people love Clay. He's got a huge following and

433
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 1: he's actually stood up A lot of people have tried

434
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: to get Clay taken off the radio, and he's been

435
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: able to fight back. And I credit that to him

436
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,679
Speaker 1: because it's not easy when you're in the eye of

437
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,359
Speaker 1: the storm, and he's been in the eye of the

438
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 1: storm over the last you know, last but four or

439
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:38,479
Speaker 1: five years or so. But yeah, we can effort that.

440
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 1: Guess would you what about what about Dave Portnoy? What

441
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,679
Speaker 1: if we had him on? I'd love to put Portnoy on.

442
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:46,919
Speaker 1: I don't think he would do it, but I'd love

443
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 1: to put him on. You don't think you were doing yeah,

444
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: because again he's got his own thing at barstool and

445
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,919
Speaker 1: all that. But if he would, I mean, but you know,

446
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,879
Speaker 1: put a request in. Yeah, well put him I'd love

447
00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 1: to talk to Portnoy. Yeah, I of the another guy

448
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 1: that's pushed back against the the localati that are out

449
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 1: there and stood up to him. And absolutely, yeah, there's

450
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 1: a guy that took it to the next levels. Talk

451
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 1: about monetizing your product. Holy crap. Dave from Mill Valley,

452
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 1: California rights and he says Eddie Garcia used to say

453
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,360
Speaker 1: downloading the podcast and noise management. More recently, he says

454
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 1: downloading the podcast upsets the corporate guys. So my question

455
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,080
Speaker 1: to you, Ben is how does downloading the podcast upset

456
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,880
Speaker 1: the corporate guys and why do we want to upset them?

457
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 1: All right, well, day, that's a great question. That the

458
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 1: reason it upsets the corporate guys is because there is

459
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 1: a pecking order in radio. In any job, there's a

460
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 1: pecking order, right, and and it upsets the apple cart,

461
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 1: if you will. There's a hierarchy. And when our little

462
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:57,119
Speaker 1: dopey overnight show gets more downloads than some of the

463
00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 1: big powerful daytime shows, it messes up the food chain. Okay,

464
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:04,719
Speaker 1: it messes up It's not that's not the way it's

465
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 1: supposed to work. There's there's a social pyramid, and we

466
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 1: know where we are on that social pyramid, and management

467
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 1: knows where we are in that social pyramid. So it

468
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 1: does upset that. But I would say it upsets them

469
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 1: in a good way. Right. They're like, oh, why are

470
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 1: people I've heard this from, not from the bosses we

471
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 1: have now but in the past. Why are people downloading this?

472
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 1: You know, I don't understand. You know. I was like,

473
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,120
Speaker 1: we've got our former athlete who's on during the day.

474
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,880
Speaker 1: Why are people not downloading that guy? So it does

475
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:39,880
Speaker 1: upset but that's the answer, not that. Steve oh from

476
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,960
Speaker 1: Florida Rights, and he says, Ben and anybody but Gagon,

477
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,359
Speaker 1: I've noticed a lot of foul language being picked up

478
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,919
Speaker 1: on the microphones during NBA games. Do you think the

479
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: broadcast partners are going to press teams to allow fans

480
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: into the stadiums simply to drown out all of the

481
00:27:55,520 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: candid conversations. He says, uh, No, they're gonna want fans

482
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: in the arenas because it's money, straight cash, homie. It's

483
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,720
Speaker 1: all about that money, boss. And then he says, also,

484
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:14,159
Speaker 1: if you could master one musical instrument, what would it be?

485
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 1: What would it be? Well, back in my younger days,

486
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 1: when I was a swinging bachelor. If you had the

487
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,360
Speaker 1: ability to play a guitar, you were a made man

488
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 1: with the ladies, right, if you had the skill with

489
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: the guitar. Man, Now, I don't know, I give you

490
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,880
Speaker 1: a play the I have, you know, inherited a piano

491
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,280
Speaker 1: guest gun. I don't know how I I My mom

492
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 1: tried to teach me how to play, and I knew

493
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 1: a few songs when I was a kid. But I

494
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 1: have no idea A nice skill to have play the piano.

495
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 1: That's the that's the one instrument I'd love to master. Piano. Piano. Well,

496
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,760
Speaker 1: I now own a piano guestcon. It's classy and it

497
00:28:55,840 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 1: goes with any kind of music, any kind of music. Yes, yeah,

498
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 1: you can listen to the greats of Mozart and all

499
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 1: that from back in the day up until now. And yeah, alright.

500
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 1: Kevin from Rockford, Illinois rights and he says Mr Mallard

501
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: and Mr Gascon. I'm a huge Duke apologist, and I

502
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 1: am always excited for March Madness. Even though Duke won't

503
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: be in the tournament this year, I still would normally

504
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 1: watch just because I love college basketball. This year, however,

505
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 1: I just can't get into it. I'm not sure if

506
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 1: it's the political climate of our country or because of COVID.

507
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: Who knows. It's just weird, Kevin writes. He says that

508
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 1: I would all of a sudden not be into something

509
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: after watching it for twenty years. Same goes for the NBA.

510
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:48,680
Speaker 1: Do you guys feel the same way or is it

511
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 1: just me? No, He's he's got a point. I mean,

512
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 1: not us obviously, because we work in the industry. We

513
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 1: can't afford to do that. But I've had a lot

514
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 1: of friends and a lot of family members that have

515
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 1: said the exact same thing, just the way that things

516
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 1: have been forced on them or presented. I don't have

517
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 1: a problem. I know you dealt with the pregame bullshit

518
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 1: that's happened certain leagues. But for them to force things

519
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 1: or or make it a big spectacle about some of

520
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: the politicalization of of of games and events and everything

521
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 1: surrounding it. Yeah, people are turned off by it. They

522
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,400
Speaker 1: want to see that for what it is, as opposed

523
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: to anything else that they could find on on news

524
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: networks and and other mainstream outlets. Well. And also remember

525
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 1: that your taste change right when you get older. Um,

526
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 1: your I know your taste, budge change, they they shrink, right,

527
00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 1: isn't that what they say that they they they're less

528
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 1: sensitive and you know, so that things you're less sensitive

529
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 1: to to, uh, salty and sweet and the bitter and

530
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: sour and all that you're probably tolerant to. Right, you're

531
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: probably less tolerant to put up with ship. Oh yeah

532
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 1: you're talking about not yeah, yeah, you just like I'm

533
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 1: tired of the bull ship. Yeah. That's one of the

534
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:02,719
Speaker 1: great things about you know, if we're if we're all

535
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 1: blessed enough to live be the old guy, then we

536
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 1: can be the bitter old guy. And when you're young,

537
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: you don't know, like my grandfather was, my mom's dad

538
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 1: was that way, just like you know, I just wouldn't

539
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 1: put up with any of the bullshit, you know. The

540
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 1: only well why do people get like that? Well, life

541
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 1: turns you into that, right, you live long enough, you

542
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: turned into that. That's just what happens. So anyway, Uh, yeah,

543
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 1: but I I I love my job, and I like

544
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 1: the NBA, and I talked about the NBA. I don't

545
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 1: talk about as much I watched games. I don't watch

546
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 1: as many games. College basketball has been very difficult for

547
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 1: me to get into I've I've had to force myself

548
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 1: as a John R. Woodn't Award voter to get into it,

549
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 1: to watch the players on the watch list. In fact,

550
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 1: I have to fill out my ballot today on Sunday.

551
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 1: The deadline is on Monday to vote for the John R.

552
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 1: Wooden Awards. So I have spent the weekend watching. By

553
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 1: the time you hear this, watching one last time player

554
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 1: to see if they can sway my vote for the

555
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 1: Wooden Award. Uh. Also Kevin writes, and he says, have

556
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 1: you guys ever heard of radio legend Man Cow Mueller?

557
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 1: Have you ever heard of Man Cow? No? You have

558
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: not know who is he? Oh, he's a He's a

559
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 1: radio legend from He's been around for a million million years.

560
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 1: We not a million years. But he Remember Stern got

561
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 1: into some battles with him, as I remember, I'm gonna

562
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,600
Speaker 1: lick at this, shut up now. Yeah, they were Howard

563
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: Stern got into a bunch of radio battles. But he

564
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 1: in the nineties. You were around in the nineties, it

565
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 1: was Howard Stern versus Man Cow. That was like that

566
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 1: was like a tenure battle. I think between those two.

567
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: That's the only I've never heard Man cow Sure, that's

568
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: how I know. I've heard clips that Stern would play. Yeah,

569
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm looking at his picture. Yeah, now I

570
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 1: know who he is. I didn't know his name. It's

571
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: one of the great radio wars of our time. You

572
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 1: think about great radio battles Man cal versus Stern legend.

573
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: We don't really have that in the sports world, do

574
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 1: we radio battles? Yeah? Are you doing in certain citizent

575
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 1: on Boston? You've got w e I versus the Sports Hub.

576
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 1: Is w e I still around. That's a great station,

577
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 1: not as great as when I worked there, but it's

578
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 1: it's an I iconic station. W e I. It used

579
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: to be, it used to be. Well, I agree, you

580
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 1: are officially a w e I historian. You have become

581
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 1: what you love, that's right. I'm part of the w

582
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 1: e I Alumni Association. I am. I admit that very much. So.

583
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 1: I'm also part of the NBC Sports Network Alumni Association.

584
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 1: But that whole networks going off the air, So turning

585
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: that whole thing completely off the air. But no, you

586
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 1: have a lot of in passionate sports cities with multiple

587
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 1: sports radio stations. You have sports radio awards, New York.

588
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 1: You have the e s P in affiliate Michael Cabe

589
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 1: versus Craig Carton on w f A N. That's a

590
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 1: radio war. Philadelphia has got several all sports stations. Dallas

591
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,759
Speaker 1: the same thing in Dallas, the ticket. You don't have that.

592
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,800
Speaker 1: mL A. You definitely don't have that here. Yeah, I

593
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,320
Speaker 1: mean there's two sports stations, but there's no real sports

594
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 1: battle that goes on, not a lot of sports talk

595
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:23,400
Speaker 1: in fact, on one of these stations. So yeah, but

596
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,399
Speaker 1: I would argue that that would be better. I had

597
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:31,760
Speaker 1: a boss, um, the great Mike Thompson, who loved radio battles,

598
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,360
Speaker 1: and and he was right. I mean, it makes everyone.

599
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:38,239
Speaker 1: Everyone enjoys a good radio battle, even if you're not

600
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:42,280
Speaker 1: in the business, because you've got good guys versus bad guys.

601
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:46,280
Speaker 1: You picked your team and they're harmless fund radio battles.

602
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: So but yeah, alright, Caleb from Meadville, Pennsylvania's is penning Gascon.

603
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 1: What are your first experiences speaking alive over the ra

604
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,799
Speaker 1: you what were they like? He says, So, were you

605
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 1: nervous or have you always been comfortable being behind the microphone? Well,

606
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 1: I'll go first. No, I was very, very nervous, had

607
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 1: Mike fright stage fright flop, sweat all of that, and

608
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: it took a fair amount of time for me to

609
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,719
Speaker 1: completely get over that. I'm pretty much over it now,

610
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,879
Speaker 1: but uh, you know, so, I I do TV every

611
00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:27,480
Speaker 1: once so while I'm still not used to like the

612
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: TV experience, even I've done all this, radio, like TV

613
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 1: is different, so I still still have the the heb

614
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:34,480
Speaker 1: gbs a little bit when I do TV every once

615
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,239
Speaker 1: in a while. But radio, I don't like hearing the

616
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: sound of my voice. And I've told the story about

617
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 1: my first show and my first experiences. It was very uncomfortable,

618
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:47,239
Speaker 1: very awkward. But I started as a reporter, so I

619
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:48,919
Speaker 1: did a lot of stuff on the phone where I'd

620
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:52,840
Speaker 1: call in from Dodger Stadium or the Forum or somewhere

621
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 1: like that. So what about you guess, yeah, I was.

622
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,879
Speaker 1: I was super nervous to start. It's easier for me

623
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 1: to to do radio or TV if I'm conversing with somebody,

624
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: like if I'm talking to you in a booth or

625
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:08,400
Speaker 1: or on the radio, It's way easier than doing it solo.

626
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 1: And the one part that freak me out was when

627
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 1: I came to the network from San Diego was that

628
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 1: you go from market seventeen to market too. And sometimes

629
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:19,439
Speaker 1: I don't know if you ever did this, but i'd

630
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,879
Speaker 1: mind funk myself where I thought, like, wow, I'm going

631
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:25,760
Speaker 1: to a national platform. There's now thousands of people listening

632
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 1: to me exactly this time, as opposed to hundreds in

633
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:31,800
Speaker 1: little old San Diego, so that that funked with me

634
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,480
Speaker 1: a little bit. Side Oddly enough, I turn off all

635
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 1: the music and I turn off my radio. I dropped

636
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 1: my microphone, uh earbuds when I'm giving updates because I

637
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:43,919
Speaker 1: want to. I don't want to think about anything else.

638
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 1: I just look at the clock and I go with

639
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,839
Speaker 1: what I need to report. You turn your headphones down, Yeah,

640
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 1: turn everything off because the music bed. The music bed

641
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,919
Speaker 1: would funk with me because when the music bed would

642
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,720
Speaker 1: go from slow to fast, that means time's winding down,

643
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,280
Speaker 1: so and it would cause me to hurry my words,

644
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 1: and then at times I'd either trip or mumble, and

645
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:08,440
Speaker 1: then it would sound like shit. So I turned the

646
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 1: microphone earbuds off. Yeah that's interesting. No, No, I turned

647
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: my headphones all the way up every syllable and I

648
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 1: could get another studio and I could hear your headphones. Yeah,

649
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 1: I didn't start out like that. I know it happens

650
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 1: to almost everyone, and I guess not you, but so

651
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 1: many people on radio limball like hearing problems. You and

652
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: Tom have the Tom Looney. Yeah, I'm gonna need a

653
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:38,960
Speaker 1: hearing it. I fully admit it's it's a workplace injury

654
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 1: caused by radio and headphones. Yeah. Steve Mason had some

655
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 1: some issues with the hearing to our old colleague at

656
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio is at ESPN, but he had some

657
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 1: issues with the the hearing back in the day. Uh,

658
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 1: it does it does happen? All right? Who else do we?

Speaker 1: trying Ryan of the fact that he got the company

668
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,840
Speaker 1: locked out of the Twitter account. I think that's a

669
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:39,480
Speaker 1: tremendous story. That's right up there with Bob Gara turning

Speaker 1: I still am amazed that someone could do that on

675
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 1: a radio show and not even try. But he did.

676
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,279

00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:27,800
Speaker 1: in the past, and he's pretty good guest, good storyteller always.

736
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,799
Speaker 1: You would imagine being a broadcaster all those years, and

737
00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 1: I think of Verne. When I think of Verne, I really,

738
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 1: to me think of SEC football. Yeah, that's what I

739
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 1: think of. And also the n c A tournament called

740
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,319
Speaker 1: some big games in the tournament as well. All Right,

741
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 1: A couple of my local favorites, Kent says, are Mark Johnson,

742
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:50,239
Speaker 1: he's the voice of the Colorado Buffaloes. We haven't had

743
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:51,800
Speaker 1: good luck with play by play guests. We try to

744
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:53,279
Speaker 1: get the Viking guy on. We tried to get the

745
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:56,480
Speaker 1: Broncos guy on. Hadn't worked out for us, right, Yeah,

746
00:42:57,840 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 1: these guys don't do it, And also says the stadium

747
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 1: anounce or he wouldn't would you want to have on

748
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:05,239
Speaker 1: the stadium announcer from Colorado? Oh? He I think he

749
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: does the p A for international airport too, right, really?

750
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:13,480
Speaker 1: I think so? That would be interesting. Yeah, I think

751
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 1: he's the voice guy for The white zone is for

752
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 1: loading and unloading only, the blue zone is for handicap parking,

753
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 1: the red zone is for emergency vehicles. That would be

754
00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:31,480
Speaker 1: a great job doing the voiceover stuff for an airport. Yeah,

755
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 1: that'd be great. That doesn't really change though, right, I

756
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 1: mean the voiceover stuff and just that's it. Yeah, alright,

757
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:45,319
Speaker 1: let's see here. Uh, he says, I assume Kent says,

758
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 1: you've heard this is an email He's said, I assume

759
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 1: you've heard the story of Joseph Kennedy getting stock tips

760
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:54,640
Speaker 1: from the shoeshine boy and immediately divesting all of his stocks.

761
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:58,520
Speaker 1: Do you think the same thing applies when you get

762
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:02,360
Speaker 1: stock tips from an overnight sports talk radio or a sidekick.

763
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering, Yes, you wanna address this issue here?

764
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:11,319
Speaker 1: You guess. I ride the hell out of the coattails

765
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:16,480
Speaker 1: of these these famous investors because there's no reason not to.

766
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 1: I I don't think there's any drawback to to ride

767
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 1: in the coattails of some of the prominent figures that

768
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:24,719
Speaker 1: they're out there. I don't know if you agree with

769
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:28,800
Speaker 1: me on that, But like Cathy would who owns that,

770
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:31,560
Speaker 1: she's the CEO of ARCA Investment Management. I look at

771
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 1: her portfolio every day, at least the stuff that's that's

772
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 1: popping up there on MSNBC and CNBC. There's no reason

773
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: not to. Because she's in it for the money and

774
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 1: they're the experts. Then it's so follow the experts every

775
00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,759
Speaker 1: given time. Why would you go down to different Yeah,

776
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:49,719
Speaker 1: I just I disagree with that. I think you're you

777
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:51,640
Speaker 1: know you can, you can do that to a point.

778
00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:53,040
Speaker 1: But I think you got to decide for yourself and

779
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 1: I think you gotta do your own research. Why though,

780
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:58,000
Speaker 1: like you have, you don't want to go with the herd,

781
00:44:58,080 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: You don't want to go with the crowd. What do

782
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 1: you when the other direction? Like it's like that thing

783
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 1: Mike Row always says, you know, when everyone's going here,

784
00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,719
Speaker 1: go the other way. Yeah, but when you but when

785
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:09,480
Speaker 1: you invest in a mutual fund, that's exactly what you're doing.

786
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:13,279
Speaker 1: You're not buying just one stock, You're buying the entire portfolio.

787
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,360
Speaker 1: You're looking at like your ten top stocks are usually

788
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:21,280
Speaker 1: something that these guys are all invested into. Anyway, You're well, listen,

789
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:25,600
Speaker 1: that's that's it. You're a follower, I'm a leader. You're

00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:52,479
Speaker 1: about this At the end of one we will look

797
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:55,319
Speaker 1: at the We'll look at two things. We'll look at

798
00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:58,920
Speaker 1: Ben Maller and David Gascon's FICO scores, and we will

799
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 1: also look at at the percentage increase or decrease in

Speaker 1: our investments for the entire year. We'll see who's got what. Okay,

801
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:07,640
Speaker 1: how about this, how about we choose the name of

802
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 1: the podcast who instead of the fifth hour with Ben

803
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:14,200

805
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 1: That could be our mission statement, Alpha to Omega. We're

806
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:27,440
Speaker 1: gonna somebody will be canceled in thirty days uh Travis

00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:30,040
Speaker 1: and Roseberg, Oregon rights and says it allowed to work

808
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:32,000
Speaker 1: from the Mallard mansion for the rest of your career.

809
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 1: Could you ever envisioned doing it Art Bell style, just

810
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 1: cruising the world in an RV. Oh, that'd be great

811
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:42,440
Speaker 1: arts one of my radio heroes, Art Bell. So I

812
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:45,799
Speaker 1: would love it. Eating from perrumpt, Nevada, the Kingdom of Naie.

813
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 1: I need to come up with it. I need to

814
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:51,640
Speaker 1: change the name of the studio. And that sounded great

815
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:55,400
Speaker 1: from the Kingdom of nai He turns out that was

816
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:58,400
Speaker 1: just the county that he was in. Well, John Madden hadn't.

817
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:01,960
Speaker 1: Why don't you have a Mallard cruiser? Be fun? I'd

818
00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:04,279
Speaker 1: love I really want to go across. I'm jealous of

819
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:06,400
Speaker 1: these truck drivers. They get the driver across the country

820
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 1: all the time. I'd love to do that. I don't

821
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 1: have the time to do it. Kevin in Kansas has

822
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,320
Speaker 1: been with the Summer Olympics happening. We hope that means

823
00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 1: we will get to watch sporting events we don't usually see.

824
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 1: What Olympic events summer, winter or both do you enjoy

825
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,920
Speaker 1: watching the most? Since they only happen on a major

826
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:31,440
Speaker 1: stage every two to four years. Like some of the

827
00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:37,080
Speaker 1: Winter Olympic stuff, the luge, that kind of stuff. Some

828
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:42,880
Speaker 1: of the the the downhill skiing stuff is pretty crazy

829
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:49,680
Speaker 1: that don't watch. Yeah, um, But mostly my experience with

830
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,040
Speaker 1: the Olympics is just trying to find an angle because

831
00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:56,160
Speaker 1: it doesn't really translate to sports radio, and so you

832
00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:59,239
Speaker 1: need a controversy. It's the condom stories are always good,

833
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,279
Speaker 1: like when they when they give condoms out to the

834
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:04,719
Speaker 1: athletes prior to arriving at the Olympic village, Like they

835
00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:07,240
Speaker 1: always disclosed how mooping that goes on. Yeah, the always

836
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:09,560
Speaker 1: disclosed how many condoms were given to all the Olympic

837
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:14,280
Speaker 1: athletes once they entered the village. Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's

838
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,760
Speaker 1: are they are they gonna be doing that still with

839
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,160
Speaker 1: with the COVID and all that sex is undefeated. Man

840
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:24,640
Speaker 1: can't stop, can't stop, won't stop round the clock. John

841
00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:26,919
Speaker 1: the Jailer rights in from Allan Town, p A. Says

842
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:30,720
Speaker 1: Ben and guestcon this past weekend was daylight savings times.

843
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 1: Are you in favor of this archaic practice or should

844
00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:38,360
Speaker 1: it be abolished? I believe in abolishing it. State of

845
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:42,839
Speaker 1: California voted a couple of years back to get rid

846
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:48,080
Speaker 1: of the daylight savings time and uh you know changing

847
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:50,920
Speaker 1: you'll keep the clock one clock year round. I'm good

848
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:54,480
Speaker 1: with it's still having light out at seven thirty closer

849
00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:59,680
Speaker 1: to eight o'clock. Well, yeah, just keep it. Pick the

850
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:01,560
Speaker 1: time you want to whatever. I don't care which one is.

851
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,040
Speaker 1: Just keep it. And the funny thing is about they

852
00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 1: said the urban legend is this was for farming, but

853
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:10,279
Speaker 1: it's not the I've heard the farming community says, we

854
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:13,239
Speaker 1: don't care, you know, make the time whatever you want.

855
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:18,719
Speaker 1: It's bullcrap. And people people have health problems when they

856
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:22,080
Speaker 1: change the time, and they get an accidents more after

857
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,520
Speaker 1: time change. I guess I could just move to Arizona

858
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:26,480
Speaker 1: where they do it right, or one of the other

859
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:32,640
Speaker 1: places in America where they they don't have the time change. Florida. Uh,

860
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:37,600
Speaker 1: well they have the time changing Florida. They Eastern Standard

861
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:41,200
Speaker 1: time switch. All right, I'll teach you about how this

862
00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,239
Speaker 1: the birds and the beast think thinking about the other

863
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:45,799
Speaker 1: benefits of being in Florida right now, I know, I

864
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:48,279
Speaker 1: hear you. Uh valls fan will do a few more.

865
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 1: Valls Fan Jimmy says, when you were a kid and

866
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:53,640
Speaker 1: went to an amusement park band. Was it difficult for

867
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:56,000
Speaker 1: you to ride rides being as tall and round as

868
00:49:56,040 --> 00:50:03,960
Speaker 1: you were? Absolutely, Jimmy, Yeah, the the round thing, you know,

869
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:08,560
Speaker 1: you you'd wait online for like Space Mountain, and then

870
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,359
Speaker 1: you would have to you'd have to squeeze like you're

871
00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:15,279
Speaker 1: squeeze and sardines into a can there to get into

872
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:19,280
Speaker 1: the the seed on Space Mountain. It was a problem,

873
00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:22,279
Speaker 1: it was, And now I can't go on I've lost weight,

874
00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:24,080
Speaker 1: but I can't go on Space Mountain, for example now

875
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:27,919
Speaker 1: because my my legs are too long and that won't work.

876
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:31,560
Speaker 1: Carlos in Bang Bang Houston writes, since this, did you

877
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,200
Speaker 1: have a fallback plan if you didn't make it in radio?

878
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 1: What happened to Real Biatch? Did he die? Real Bitch

879
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:43,040
Speaker 1: has been banned from the show for I believe six months,

880
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:45,680
Speaker 1: so we will not be hearing from him and maybe

881
00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:48,360
Speaker 1: ever again. He might be banned forever, but the actual

882
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:52,719
Speaker 1: band will be about six months for conduct detrimental to

883
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:56,560
Speaker 1: the Ben Maller show. Uh, And so he's he's been

884
00:50:56,600 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 1: banned and my fallback, I didn't really have a fallback,

885
00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:04,320
Speaker 1: you know, I thought if the radio thing didn't work out,

886
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:09,000
Speaker 1: I'd have to get a real job, but you know,

887
00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:12,840
Speaker 1: kid around about Costco and all that. Joe and Richmond,

888
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:15,319
Speaker 1: Virginia says, so many questions a little time. He says,

889
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:20,640
Speaker 1: I recently conducted a yippie dot com browser search on you,

890
00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:23,600
Speaker 1: just to test what is hippie dot com? What does that?

891
00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:27,840
Speaker 1: I have no clue? Uh. He wanted to test the results,

892
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:31,279
Speaker 1: and he says, I discovered that filexis might not be

893
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:35,719
Speaker 1: the only six toed drag queen in your midst Uh

894
00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:39,600

895
00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:43,239
Speaker 1: is currently forty five years old. So I accorded it

Speaker 1: says online rumors of Ben Maller's dating may vary, may vary.

898
00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:54,760
Speaker 1: While it's relatively simple to find out who's dating Ben Maller,

899
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:57,440
Speaker 1: it's harder to keep track of all the flings, hookups

900
00:51:57,440 --> 00:52:00,600
Speaker 1: and breakups. Wow, I have no I do what Yippi
