You're your question. So that Kevin 47 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: and Kansas wrote in he says, dear Ben, I cut 48 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: your gremlin glitch the other night. As a person who 49 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: likes to know how the sausage is made, can you 50 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: tell us what it's like at the main studio and 51 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,639 Speaker 1: your place when you start trying to fix things, especially 52 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: with the pressure of millions of live listeners waiting. Thanks, 53 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: I appreciate it, guys. That's Kevin. So yeah, Kevin, I'll 54 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: get into that a little bit. So we did have 55 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: a gremlin attack, the first time that's happened. I've been 56 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: in this new studio for almost six months now and 57 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: we've had really good quality audio. But every once in 58 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: a while, just to remind you that you're not in 59 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: Kansas anymore, Toto, that you you get the gremlins attack. 60 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: So the other night I was doing the show and 61 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: all of a sudden everything stopped. I hear side. So 62 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: on my end, Kevin, what I hear is I normally 63 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: hear some ambient kind of a buzz or something, or 64 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: sound effects or music or something but in the background, 65 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: depending on what's being played in the air. But I'm 66 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: talking and like, you know, all of a sudden, like 67 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: I hear nothing, I fell asleep. What I do is 68 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: I immediately turned. I look at my equipment, make sure 69 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: I didn't screw anything up. I'm like, is every button, 70 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: every knob where it's supposed to be, did anything become 71 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: plugged or any of that stuff? Uh? And then I, 72 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:09,119 Speaker 1: I uh, usually will text Coop or I'll call the 73 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: the warm line. I'll call the warm line to talk 74 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: to Roberto and it's an inside line and try to 75 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: figure out what the plan is. But what happened this 76 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: week was I knew right away the line went down 77 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 1: the internet special broadcast thing that we used to do 78 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: the show on, and it it was just down. So 79 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: at that point, and I'll let Danny handle the engineering 80 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: part of it, because you've been on that side of it, 81 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: introducing the producing and all that, but I on on 82 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: my end. I just make sure I didn't screw up, 83 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: covering my ass. And then once I established that it 84 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: was the connection, the broadcast line that gone down, I'm 85 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 1: at the mercy of the broadcast line. I just have 86 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: to make the most of it. So I'll usually call 87 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: in and goof around with Eddie on the phone, and 88 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: because that's all I can really do, I have no 89 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: other way of communicating. So I know at the studio 90 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: there's a a lot of running around, right Danny, and 91 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: trying to figure out also what's going on where the 92 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,679 Speaker 1: issue is. First of all, please tell me Brian Finley 93 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: was filling in for Eddie the other night when this happened. 94 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: Oh God, no, no, it was Eddie. It was Eddie. 95 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 1: And I think about the great thing about Eddie Danny 96 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: is I used to when I when I first got 97 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: a radio, we had technically issues doing I did a 98 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: lot of remotes and I got read the Riot Act 99 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: by one of my program directors. If there's a mistake, 100 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 1: you don't mention it on the air, I used to 101 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 1: yell at and God love Eddie, Eddie. Uh the line 102 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: goes down for the next two days. Eddie's bringing up 103 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 1: the fact that we had technical difficulties just in case, 104 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: just in case. The other list of hundreds of thousands 105 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: of people that didn't hear about it know about it, 106 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: which I always get a kick out of it. But 107 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: so it was so walk me through this, Danny. You're 108 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: you're in the mother ship. You're in the main headquarters 109 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: there where all the bells and whistles are, and what happened. Yeah, 110 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 1: we'll hear the same thing, kind of like a digital 111 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: skip sound, and then you usually the host just cuts 112 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: off drops gone, it's gone, connection, gone, dead air. Roberto 113 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: gets big eyes, turns and looks at me. I turn 114 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: and look at Eddie, and we're like scrambling. At this point, 115 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 1: I'm actually on the live air. We have a delay system, 116 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: so we could hit the dump button to get rid 117 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,919 Speaker 1: of the few seconds of dead air that just happened. 118 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 1: But now it's my call in the producer's seat. I'm 119 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: gonna say, Okay, let's turn on Eddie's mike. Eddie, you 120 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,679 Speaker 1: gotta cover while we get Ben reconnected. Not a fun 121 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 1: situation to be in, whatsoever, because you don't know is 122 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: it the Internet? Is it yours? Is it ours? To 123 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: the boxes that we use to connect to each other 124 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: need to be reset. Um. And now besides needing to 125 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: figure out that part of it, you also need to 126 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 1: entertain the list ners that are already there. Yeah, and 127 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 1: so that really is the balancing act. And back before 128 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: we used what's called a comrex connection. We had I 129 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: SDN connections which were more of a dial up situation. Well, 130 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: it got to be a regular thing where we just 131 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: joked about it, kind of like in your old studio, 132 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: where it would happen not every week, but happened enough 133 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: to where the listeners were in on it and new, Okay, 134 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: he's having studio problems. Here comes the fireworks, and and 135 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: we just kind of laughed, and you know, we're lighthearted 136 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: about it. But I'm with you, dude. I was taught 137 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: by a really strict program director. If there's a mistake 138 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: on the air, you do not draw attention to send mistake. 139 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,119 Speaker 1: We were like Trill Sergeant's back when we were kids. 140 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: In radio, you do not tell the listeners that there's 141 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: a problem. You just keep pushing forward. So in our 142 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: minds we're thinking that because that's how we were trained 143 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 1: to kids. But radio nowadays, because so many people have 144 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: recording studios in their garage, in their bedrooms, even now, 145 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: when there's technical issues, it's handled in more of a 146 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: lighthearted manner nowadays. Yeah, it is true, but I do 147 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: have PTSD from that programmer. When I hear Eddie going 148 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: on and on about oh Mallard dropped again, you know, 149 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: and well yeah, and then there's a whole another thing 150 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: where we have to explain what happened to our head 151 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: engineer at the network. And Carriss is a nice guy, 152 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: but he's not the most easy going guy radio engineer. 153 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 1: He's got a lot to deal with. I would have 154 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: to wake him up and tell him what was going on, 155 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: because if he wasn't in the loop, I would get 156 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: more in trouble due to that than anything else that 157 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: went on on either side of these connections and these 158 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 1: satellite link ups or internet connections. There were times where 159 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: I would fix the problem. We kept it very entertaining 160 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: on the air, and we're giving each other high fives 161 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: in the studio and I leave and I go home, 162 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 1: and I'm like, man, what a marathon that shift was. 163 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: But it all worked out in the end. And then 164 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: I would get an email, Danny, why did you not 165 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: let me know what happened? You should have looped me 166 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 1: in on this, And I'm gonna write you up. I 167 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: got written up Ben working on your show more than 168 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: I've ever gotten written up on job in my life. 169 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 1: I was written up three times management while I was 170 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,439 Speaker 1: producing your program. I apologize there. I feel like I'm 171 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: responsible for that, and all three times it was because 172 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: I didn't inform for people. But in my mind, that's 173 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: ratting us out, like I'm not the kind of person 174 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: to broadcast it. So as long as we fixed the issue, 175 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: I didn't want to broadcast it to anybody. No, I 176 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: hear you. But you know, one of the things and 177 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: the curses and working for the machine is there are 178 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,719 Speaker 1: people monitoring everything that goes out over the air. We 179 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 1: have what's it called the Master Control where they're monitoring 180 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 1: everything up yeah, the brain upstairs, the brain like, oh, 181 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: it's not just a Fox Sports radio but all the 182 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: premier networks programming.

And if we go 191 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: off the air, they get notified, then an email goes 192 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: out to all of the executives and all the bosses.

Next up, 235 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 1: Pierre from Springfield, Mass says, Ben, tails of your frugality 236 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 1: are well known. I know that you're hesitant to break 237 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,959 Speaker 1: off multiple C notes on a pricey outdoor pizza of it. 238 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: My question to you both would be, do you guys 239 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: have air fryers? If so, I've found TikTok to be 240 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: a haven of fast food air friar hacks in general 241 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: overall cooking time servers. So I'm not on TikTok, but 242 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: i do have an air fryer. I do love the 243 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: air frier. The air fryer is great, wonderful. I don't 244 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,839 Speaker 1: know who invented it, but great job by whoever came 245 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: up with that. And but I'm not really a TikTok guy. 246 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: I'm not. Are you on TikTok, Danny? Are you You're not? No, 247 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: not a TikToker. And my Tinderoni also has an air fryer. Yeah, 248 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 1: he uses it on Sundays for football, which I love. 249 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: Sometimes during the week to make things a little healthier. 250 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: She'll use that. Some great dishes come out of that machine. 251 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: And I've used it a few times. This is my 252 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: first time using an air fryer. Take some of that 253 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: grease away. I like it. I like it. Yeah. One 254 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 1: one dish I really like using it for are the 255 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: Takedo's ben from Costco. Oh. Yeah, absolutely, that's a go to. 256 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: Oh it's great and they but any of that's like 257 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: frozen food that you could get at Costco or wal 258 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: Mart or wherever. It is just just wonderful that they 259 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: have those restaurant quality chicken strips you can get a 260 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: Costco and you put those in there and you don't 261 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: have to go pay twenty five bucks for a meal 262 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: at a restaurant. You can get it for still expensive, 263 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: but it's a lot cheaper than I've been eating at 264 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: the restaurant. Pierre, send me some of those hacks, buddy, 265 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: I know you you know how to get ahold of me, 266 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: And send me some of those hacks. All I'll play 267 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: around with that. Why not? All right? Next up, he'll Billy, 268 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: Mike writes in and he'll Billy works at the UPS 269 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: Hub in Virginia. And he says, Hey, Ben, like most, 270 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: I despise tanking in the NFL and wanted to know 271 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 1: what you thought about this fix. So this is a 272 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: sporting question, he says. You take the bottom five teams 273 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: and flip the rewards to give the fifth team from 274 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: the bottom the best pick, the fourth the worst pick. Uh, 275 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: you know, the fourth the worst next, and so on. 276 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: So the worst team does not get the number one 277 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: pick anymore, and even the pond scum of the NFL 278 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: have to try and win some games. Of course, tweak 279 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: it if need be, he says, but teams would have 280 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: more incentive to win. What do you think that's from 281 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: hill Billy Mike. It's not the worst idea, but I 282 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: think they should just I'd get rid of the entire draft. 283 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: I hate the draft. I'm down on the draft. I'm 284 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: glad the Rams don't have any draft picks. Uh. The 285 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: the way that they do it, they'll never do it here. 286 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: We talked about this all the time is relegation. They 287 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: do that in Europe and they're never gonna do that here. 288 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: But that's the way to solve the problem that have 289 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 1: legitimate punishment if your team blows for a few years 290 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: in a row and just do something about it. And 291 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: another thing that I pointed this out on the radio 292 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: show Danny. One of the things I like a lot 293 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: about the Clippers this year. They don't have a good 294 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: team because Kawhi Leonard and Paul George aren't playing. Just 295 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: as a reference for hill Billy Mike, but since they 296 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 1: don't have a first round pick and they really don't 297 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: have any picks till, they're not trying to lose games. 298 00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: They're actually trying to win games. Wish at someone who's 299 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: a fan, that's what I want, That's all I ask. 300 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: I don't care about your freaking draft pick. I want 301 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 1: you to put an honest effort there and try to 302 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 1: win as many games as you can. And because I 303 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 1: want winners, all right, that's what I want. I want 304 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: to celebrate winning. Do you understand not losing winning. I 305 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 1: saw someone recently online propose that we take the two 306 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: worst NFL teams and have them face off against each 307 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,719 Speaker 1: other annually, replacing the Pro Bowl. So it'll be the 308 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: battle of the worst two teams for the number one 309 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 1: draft pick. So the goal would be to win that game. Ok, 310 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: to actually try to win that game, all right? Take 311 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 1: the two worst wherever the Pro Bowls being held or 312 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: in this case would be called the toilet Bowl, and 313 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: you would get you would win the number one draft pick. 314 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: All right, hey, and you Winnesota as well. So yeah, 315 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:04,199 Speaker 1: I gotta sell you should do something. There's so many, 316 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: so many teams. It is a huge issue. So many 317 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: teams just not trying to to put a good product 318 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 1: on the field and try to win. They think they 319 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: have the cheap code to getting these draft picks, which 320 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 1: is fools go most of the time. I got mail, Yeah, 321 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 1: I got mail. Yeah, all right. A friend, Hajji from Roanoke, Virginia, 322 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,919 Speaker 1: rights and he says a quick question. It sounds like 323 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 1: there are several Friday jokes you can't read on the radio. 324 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 1: Could you read them on the Fifth Hour podcast instead? 325 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 1: Maybe in a special jokes only episode so sensitive people 326 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: could skip it. Just a thought, keep up the great work, 327 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: Bed and Danny. That's from Hajji in Roanoke. So the 328 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 1: way I'll answer that, I have tossed this around in 329 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: my head. We get some very offensive jokes. We and 330 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: they're very hilarious. Oh my god, are they funny. They're 331 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: the funniest jokes we get we don't read on the air. 332 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: The problem with that, I've tossed it back and forth. 333 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 1: But the issue here is that doing the podcast, it's 334 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,919 Speaker 1: kind of like what happened to Joe Rogan. Joe Rogan 335 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: back in the day had told a bunch of jokes 336 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 1: and he had said the N word. But at the 337 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: time that was allowed in comedy. At some point that 338 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: was no longer allowed, and so that got weaponized years 339 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 1: later against Joe Rogan. People tried to cancel Rogan, who's 340 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: the king of the podcast and all that, and so 341 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 1: I'm like, I could read those jokes on the podcast, 342 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: but that will be out there forever and then eventually 343 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 1: that could come back and bite me in the ask Danny. 344 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 1: So that's my concern for Hajji. We're doing that. Not 345 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: that I don't think it would be the great podcast. 346 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,400 Speaker 1: It would probably be the most popular podcast that we do, 347 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 1: because it's comedy, it's good jokes. People like to laugh, 348 00:19:57,880 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: and you know, guys like to have a good time. 349 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 1: And you know, the women that listen to the show, 350 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: they get it, they get the humor, so they love it. 351 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,479 Speaker 1: But you know, again, the problem is is wires are 352 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 1: flying all over this place. The problem is that stuff. 353 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: You know, all it takes is the the Wokesters to 354 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 1: get ahold of that and then uh, you know it's 355 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: canceled Miller time and all that. So we're living in 356 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 1: a non Negros world. I don't know what you're talking 357 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 1: about talking about Ben's famous Negros drop last weekend on 358 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: the podcast Phil and Joe. They're brothers. They're dead and 359 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: well one of them, and I think both of them 360 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 1: are actually now I don't know. Alright, Uh, let's see 361 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: who do we have next? Any meany mighty mo. Get 362 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: a lot of questions coming in here on the mail bag. 363 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 1: Email bag very popular. That's right, Yes we do have 364 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 1: mail al right. Next up is David in a Houston. 365 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: He says, Hey, Ben and Danny, g I'm getting married 366 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 1: in March. What was the most memorable part of your wedding? 367 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: I guess this is for me because you haven't had 368 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: your your wedding yet. Uh. So I got married in 369 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 1: Hawaii and uh, I just remember being excited and nervous. 370 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: We I loped. So it's just me and my wife 371 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 1: at that time, my future wife, and I just want 372 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: to make sure everything was good and because even though 373 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: we got married without family. We had a camera person 374 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: was there to take a photographer, and we had the 375 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 1: person that did the ceremony and all that. We had 376 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: to pick the spot in Hawaii. We had to find 377 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 1: the right place in Kauaie to get married, what part 378 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: of the beach you wanted, the whole thing. There's a 379 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 1: lot of that stuff. We had to go down to 380 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: the the court, not the court room, the city office 381 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,159 Speaker 1: or where we fell out, the wedding papers, the marriage 382 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 1: license and all that. So just like dealing with all 383 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 1: that stuff. But I remember having a great time and uh, 384 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: wonderful time. You know, you don't remember the days. That's 385 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 1: what they say about life. You don't remember actually days. 386 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 1: You remember moments. And that's a moment obviously. Remember I 387 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: don't know what kind of wedding you're gonna have, David, 388 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 1: if it's a small wedding, a big wedding, just soak 389 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 1: it all in. Uh, you know, it's simple stuff, right, 390 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:12,119 Speaker 1: He's it's amazing how fast it goes. And you know, 391 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: just I remember at my wedding how many people were 392 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: alive in my family that are no longer alive. And 393 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 1: I didn't get married that long ago, and Uh, you know, 394 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 1: these are people I loved and real close family, and 395 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 1: I don't I can't call him, I can't text them, 396 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: I can't email him, and so you just enjoy that stuff. So, uh, 397 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: you know that that would be it said, Yeah, was 398 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: your family okay with not being there at the actual 399 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 1: physical wedding. Yeah, you know it's funny because my mom, 400 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,159 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure my mom mays she rested peace. She 401 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: never thought I was actually gonna get married because I 402 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: was just like a radio guy. You know. She was shocked. 403 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 1: I think that I found a lovely woman to spend 404 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: my life with. So there was that. Um, but my 405 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 1: mom was also sick, she was dying, and I we 406 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: kind of That's one of the reasons I actually called 407 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 1: truth be told. I hurried up and got married because 408 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 1: I wanted her to know before she she checked out 409 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 1: that I did get married. I wasn't a total loser. 410 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,919 Speaker 1: Uh So we kind of sped things up in that process. 411 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 1: So that was part of that. Russell and Kansas writes 412 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: in uh says, first off, it's good to be back. Uh. 413 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: He says, since you replaced Mr Egotistical West of the 414 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 1: four or five another fan, I really missed the podcast. Thanks, 415 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 1: Uh then I got I got several of the same 416 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: questions Danny. I got Russell in Kansas, Carlos in Houston, 417 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: and we'll get to his as well. But they were 418 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: all asking why haven't you re recorded the commercial for 419 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 1: the podcast to include the great Danny g Radio, he says. 420 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: Carlos and Houston had a similar question. Says, I'm truly 421 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: bummed out about beer drinking. Brian passed away. He was 422 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: such a peaceful guy despite him drinking a lot. I'm 423 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: also relieved that Helmet Man is alive. He says. I 424 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 1: listen to your show podcast every day. In the Fifth 425 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: Hour promos, here we go Danny pop up and it 426 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 1: keeps saying your sidekick David Gascon. When will that be 427 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: changed to Danny Gee? And Rick from San Ramon also 428 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 1: wrote in and he said again, why does your promo 429 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: for the fifth Hour podcast still identify Gascon as your partner? 430 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: He says that so a lot of those questions, Danny, 431 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,159 Speaker 1: but people very concerned. They want you to get the 432 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 1: proper love and how do we have to change that? 433 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: What kind of bureaucracy do we have to go through, 434 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: Danny to change that? I don't know, to be honest 435 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 1: with you, where does that play on the Heart app? Yeah, 436 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: and so I'm sure it's not just our podcast or 437 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 1: what happened to give you a little inside radio how 438 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 1: we make the hot dogs. So we did a promo 439 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 1: when I was with gascon A for the I Heart 440 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 1: podcast network, and I Heart has a gazillion a flotilla 441 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: of podcast yes, an insane amount of podcast We're just 442 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 1: a pimple on an elephant's ass when it comes to 443 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,719 Speaker 1: these podcasts. And so they asked us to do a promo, 444 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 1: and it was cross promotion, like you'll hear a promo 445 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 1: for the fifth hour on Gottlieb or Rob Parker podcast 446 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 1: and even non Fox Sports radio podcast. They'll pop up 447 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: on different different podcasts and then in addition on this podcast, 448 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,199 Speaker 1: you're you're gonna hear other people. I was unaware on 449 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,199 Speaker 1: the radio show podcast that that was still playing, but 450 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,359 Speaker 1: I'm sure we could email the powers that be and 451 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: just let them know, hey, why don't we record a 452 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:38,400 Speaker 1: new promo. I think it was like thirty seconds, maybe longer, 453 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: but you know, we can we can probably take care 454 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: of that. So I'm it must have just popped up 455 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: this week because I didn't get any emails up until 456 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 1: this week, So some kind of weird algorithm or something 457 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: fired off the promo that we did a long time ago. 458 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,360 Speaker 1: That's an old promo. By the way, we'll get right 459 00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: on top of that. I'm sure it will be updated 460 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 1: by possibly depending how quickly we will not getting it 461 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: will not be having any sooner. As fast as we 462 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 1: can do it, we'll have a new promop. Rick also says, 463 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 1: since Danny G. This is Rick from San Ramon. He says, 464 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: since Danny G Is back with you on the weekend, 465 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: whatever happened to the you gotta be kidding me? Drop? 466 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: That is my all time favorite, and Danny or Roberto 467 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 1: would play it while you announced all of your nicknames. 468 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,239 Speaker 1: I said, I'll take your answer off the air. Rick, Well, 469 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: hard trying of you to take the answer off the air. 470 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: Classic radio cliche. So did we lose that drop? Danny? 471 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 1: You have gotta be kidding me. Do we still have that? 472 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna search for that now that he mentions it. 473 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 1: That was one of my favorite times working the board 474 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,360 Speaker 1: is whenever you would go into your spiel about all 475 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:57,719 Speaker 1: your stupid nicknames. I had clown music that I loved 476 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 1: to play behind you, and I also had lots of 477 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:05,120 Speaker 1: funny drops like that one he mentioned when you did 478 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 1: your nicknames. I was busy mocking all those nicknames. I'll 479 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: take a look in the system for that drop he's 480 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,919 Speaker 1: referring to. Well, that is an act of disrespect, That 481 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,919 Speaker 1: is an act of war. Make a nickname about it. Yeah, okay, 482 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 1: well maybe I will. You think that's all right? You're wrong, 483 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: You are wrong. Okay, Oh my god, who the hell cash? Yes, 484 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 1: all right, wasted ten minutes of our life anytime you 485 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 1: ran down that long list. The highest ratings we ever 486 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 1: got doing that, the highest ratings ever unless it wasn't. 487 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 1: I got mail, yea, I got mail, yea. Barry and 488 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 1: Nashville says yo yo, mop Benny. Now that the Rams 489 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl, did you celebrate by finally having 490 00:27:54,480 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: that Tomahawks steak and m night or is it still 491 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: in your freezer maybe waiting for the Clippers to win 492 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: the championship. What is still wrong with the Clippers? Well, Barry, 493 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,360 Speaker 1: the Tomahawks steak is taking a life of its own. 494 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,200 Speaker 1: It's kind of like the fact I don't drink coffee, 495 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 1: so now I need to leave that steak in the 496 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,400 Speaker 1: freezer just a little bit longer. I don't think it's 497 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 1: matured quite enough yet. At some point I'll pull it out. 498 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: Alan and Akron writes and got time for a couple more. 499 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: Alan and Akron writes and says, when will they another one? 500 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 1: Here's another one day? When will they new pro will 501 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: be cut on? I heart man, it's really upset a 502 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: lot of people. Danny Alan, we were on it, he said, 503 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: by we'll we'll have it done, either that or by 504 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: the time the Vikings win the Super Bowl. I don't 505 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,719 Speaker 1: know whichever comes first there. And I almost feel like 506 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: I should just go in ninja style and right after 507 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: Gascon has mentioned on it, insert a record scratch and 508 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: then just say Nope, it's me Danny g and then 509 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: let the rest of the promo play and then scream 510 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 1: just like that, or do the old Howard Stern thing 511 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: just like that? I Uh, James in Greensboro in North 512 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: Carolina rights and he says, what are these songs used for? 513 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: Ask Ben and cite the bite. I have no idea. 514 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: I am not musically gifted, do you know, off the 515 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: top of your head, Danny, the only intro I'm thinking 516 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 1: of is um the word fleetwood mac is used. Tell 517 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: me lies. I cannot think of what's used on asked. 518 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: All right, well that'll give James a reason to listen 519 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 1: to a future podcast. Yeah. Hey, I'll give you the 520 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 1: answer on next weekend's mail bag. I'm gonna make a 521 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 1: note right now, same bat time, same bat station. Right, 522 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: that's how you say it, right, same bad time, same 523 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: bad stays wrong. Last one from Nick in Wisconsin. Now 524 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: he's referring to a video we talked about on the 525 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: show here the other day. Have you seen that viral 526 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 1: video out of Mexico, Viva Mexico of the birds for 527 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: the Birds? Have you seen that yet? Okay, so I'll 528 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: try to describe it to you. Maybe I can send 529 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: you a copy of it. Hold on a secure and 530 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: we have the technology. Let me let me go over 531 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 1: here and go down, page down, page down. Uh So, 532 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna send you the video and I want you 533 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 1: to watch it. So it's a very odd moments from 534 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: a security camera. Look at this amazing technology. It is fascinating, 535 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: isn't it. Look at that it's like we're right next 536 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: to each other. All right, So I sent you the link. 537 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 1: It's a video. You gotta click on it, and it's 538 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: just security video of this house in Mexico. And then 539 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, it looks like a black cloud 540 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 1: of rain comes down. Who yeah in that wild that's birds. 541 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: That's a flock of birds that came crashing down. And 542 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 1: so we were trying to figure out what happened. There's 543 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: a couple of different theories on it. One of the 544 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,719 Speaker 1: theories is they flew through a cloud of poison. Another 545 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 1: theory is they hit a like a line electric line. 546 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 1: Another theory, which I think most people are going with, 547 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 1: is that there was a predator bird that scared them. 548 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 1: So the lead bird, you know how there's like the 549 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 1: lead bird that leads them, and the lead bird somehow 550 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: was trying to get away from the predator bird and 551 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: bam right down down you go. Turn out the lots 552 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 1: the parties over. Yeah that one. Sorry, you get nothing. Incidentally, 553 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 1: this is exactly what the video footage looks like outside 554 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: of that bathroom you blew up in Echo Park. That 555 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 1: is very so, that is correct. That is the same, 556 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 1: the same situation. But Nikki and Wisconsin, I just show 557 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: you the video, naysays after the video of the birds 558 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,719 Speaker 1: in Mexico that rained down. Would you rather be the 559 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 1: lead bird or one of the followers, he says, And 560 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: do you think the lead bird hit the ground first? 561 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: That video was wild, they have The video is wild. 562 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: So you'd obviously rather be one of the followers than 563 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 1: the lead bird because the lead bird probably definitely died. 564 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 1: There's a shot some of the birds survived. They didn't 565 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 1: all die like there were some birds that stood up 566 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 1: and we're we're okay there. So every once a while, 567 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 1: these things have probably been happening forever, but we now 568 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: there's hammers everywhere. We kidded around. We said, one of 569 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: the benefits of the police state as we see things 570 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 1: like this that we would never see, like ever. Have 571 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: you seen that video clip of the guy that fell 572 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: walking on the sidewalk? I think it was somewhere in Japan, 573 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: uh and and the guys walking and you know how 574 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: in the city they have those doors that open up 575 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: to the liver products for the for the restaurants or whatever. 576 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 1: So this guy comes walking down, he falls through the hole. 577 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 1: You think he's dead. He just he hit a box 578 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 1: and he was fine. It was wild. That video was 579 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 1: making the rounds this week by the way, somebody underneath 580 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 1: the videos trying to explain that February tenth, around this time, 581 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: the Earth had a magnetic event due to solar winds. 582 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: Magnetic is how these birds fly in these large groups 583 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 1: that threw off their compass. Happened all over on February tenth. Really, 584 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: people underneath, some people are agreeing with them. So I'm 585 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: not sure everything we read on the internet is correct, obviously, 586 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: but well that makes sense. Yeah, I just think it 587 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 1: was drawn. They could have just been magnetically drawn down 588 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: to the concrete. Well if it it messes up the 589 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,920 Speaker 1: way they who knows how they fly, you know what 590 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: I mean, they've studied it and all that. They haven't 591 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: been able to master it. But yeah, that's pretty crazy. Yeah, 592 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 1: actually we got we're up against these were like scientists. 593 00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 1: We just explained a geo magnetic solar storm. Yeah, we're 594 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 1: not just sports guys, now, we're not sport Oh guys, 595 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: Dandy were multi to mention, you've got the music background 596 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 1: I've got to get, you know, the gas baggery nonsense, 597 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 1: all that mixed together the way to go. Yeah. Um, 598 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: but else today I saw some other stories that we 599 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,839 Speaker 1: don't have time to get to but the I saw 600 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 1: a story of China claims they invented skiing ten thousand 601 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 1: years ago. Do you think skiing has been around for 602 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:28,359 Speaker 1: ten thousand years? Absolutely not. Yeah, I find that one 603 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 1: hard to believe. And that undersea remember that undersea volcano 604 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 1: and Tonga, Yeah, they said, Now they claim the scientists 605 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 1: underwater volcano eruption it triggered nearly five ninety thousand lightning strikes. 606 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 1: They claim because of that as again everything's connected, you know, 607 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: the birds and the bees and all that stuff. And 608 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: then they also said the volcano eruption itself was the 609 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: force of more than five hundred hirosium a nuclear bomb. 610 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:06,279 Speaker 1: That's pretty crazy to wild stories. And I have seen 611 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 1: some of the conspiracy theories on that, but yeah, I 612 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 1: didn't have really studied that much. Anyway, I any to 613 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: my moote here, Danny g anything at all here? What 614 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:18,800 Speaker 1: do you want to promote? Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, cameo, 615 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,760 Speaker 1: any of that stuff. I would just like to request 616 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 1: that we get three more of those wonderful reviews because 617 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 1: Ben is still trying to pay off his parking super 618 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 1: Bowl event that we went to, so now it might 619 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 1: only count towards pennies or even just a dollar bend 620 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 1: towards your earnings on the podcast. But that would put 621 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,359 Speaker 1: a dollar back in your pocket and take care of 622 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: some of that fifties sixty dollars we spent on parking 623 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: for Radio Row.
