1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:02,240
Speaker 1: Kutbooms.

2
00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 2: If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes

3
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 2: of the old Republic, a soul fashion of fairness. He

5
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the

6
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,600
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow to Clearinghouse of

7
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 2: hot takes, break free for something special. The Fifth Hour

8
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 2: with Ben Maller starts right now in.

9
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: The air everywhere, The Fifth Hour with me Ben Mallor,

10
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: and we are hanging out together here on a Friday.

11
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 1: The what is it? Today's the ninth day of January.

12
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 1: And on this podcast we have Sir Potty Mouth and

13
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 1: on the QD. But we're gonna begin with this so

14
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: on a weekly basis the journey into the audio world

15
00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: that we do here this being Friday. We have new

16
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: podcasts all week and long. But we have come to

17
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: accept many uncomfortable truths about life, such as as I've

18
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 1: gotten older, the Malard metabolism has entered the Witness Protection program,

19
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: which is why I do extreme fasting on the daily,

20
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 1: on the daily, and that every time I go to

21
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: the grocery store and I go to check out, it

22
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: doesn't matter what line I pick. Immediately the person checking

23
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 1: out will want to have a long term conversation with

24
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: whoever they're checking out. Now, I try to do self

25
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 1: checkout as much as I can. One of the stories

26
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 1: I go to does not have self checkout, which is

27
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: a big pain in the behind anyway. Also, that will

28
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: circle back when you hear someone in business say, we'll

29
00:01:54,840 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: circle back to that, that is corporate jargon, that the

30
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 1: corporate code for this whatever this is, is never happening. Whatever

31
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: that is. No matter whether it should happen or not,

32
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: it's not happening. So when somebody says that, we'll circle

33
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 1: back to that never happening. And now, thanks to Live Radio,

34
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 1: we have once again been reminded of the most humbling

35
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: truth of all. Karma owns a stopwatch and has impeccable timing.

36
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: Did you know that? Did you know that Karma owns

37
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: a stopwatch and has impeccable timing?

38
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:32,959
Speaker 3: It does?

39
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: It does? Let's take you on a journey through time

40
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 1: and space. So we talk often about some of the

41
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: quirky things that happen on the weekday show. We spend

42
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: our time here on the podcast The Fifth Hour Podcast

43
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 1: talking about that some would say, way too much time, Right,

44
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: what are you doing? Why do you keep talking about that?

45
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: What's wrong with you? Move on? However, it's a good

46
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: way to document the things that take place. And I

47
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: know that we talk about it so much. We're almost

48
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: at the point where some some who listen and think

49
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: we are just being nostalgic. It's like we're men who

50
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: still insist on vinyl records that that sounds better, or

51
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:24,679
Speaker 1: that the Big East was the top point in all

52
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 1: of sports when the Big East basketball dominated every Monday,

53
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: Big Monday and all that stuff. But here's the deal again,

54
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: I like doing this podcast. Some days I like it

55
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: more than others. And I find podcasting to be wonderful.

56
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: It's very controlled here the ecosystem. It's polite. It's bubble

57
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: wrap for the soul. It's like live radio. However, is

58
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: a demolition derby where you are blindfolded and someone else

59
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: controls the brakes, right, It's that kind of situation. And

60
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: I do love that I got into it when I

61
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: was a young dad back in the day. That's why

62
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: I got into radio now earlier this week, get to

63
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: the point, please, So the Demolition Audio Derby delivered one

64
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 1: of its masterpieces. This was Masterpiece Theater, one of its

65
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: finest RECs. Took place just a couple of days ago

66
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 1: on the Wednesday into Thursday show. So it was the

67
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: final hour of the Ben Mather Show, a time slot

68
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: where reality becomes optional. And we have more people listening

69
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: that hour than we do the earlier parts of the

70
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 1: show because of the people getting up early trying to

71
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,280
Speaker 1: get the jump on work on the Eastern seaboards. So

72
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: we have a lot more people then than we do

73
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 1: earlier in the show listening live. Another podcast is the podcast,

74
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: and people will listen and consume what they're going to consume.

75
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 1: But the callers treat the phone lines like a confession

76
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 1: booth with no priest. Although you could argue that I

77
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 1: am the audio priest, I am not an actual priest,

78
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 1: but on the radio, why not? And so enter Sir

79
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: scratch Off. Now, if you listen semi regularly, chances are

80
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 1: if you've been with the show for any period of

81
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: time that you've heard the work of Sir scratch Off.

82
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: He loves the Rams. He liked them when they were

83
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: the Saint Louis Rams. He likes the back in the

84
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: day with the La Rams. He loves to call up

85
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: and talk about the Rams. He also gets very offended

86
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: about the Dodgers. He's a Cardinals fan. He's got issues. However,

87
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 1: he's a longtime member of the Mallard Militia from the

88
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 1: state of Arkansas. A senior statesman, if you will, a

89
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: veteran caller. Veteran caller, the kind of guy whose name

90
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 1: alone suggests that he's got opinions, convictions, and at least

91
00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 1: at least a couple of plastic tubs was filled with

92
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 1: old lottery tickets. And he's the guy that will go

93
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:12,479
Speaker 1: into a roadside diner in the backwoods of Arkansas and

94
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 1: he will say, Hey, can I get a breakfast burrito? Well,

95
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,679
Speaker 1: why would you order a breakfast baburrito your roadside stop

96
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: somewhere in Arkansas? Well, I like breakfast burritos. And then

97
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 1: he'll start talking. Next thing you know, you'll be in

98
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 1: a conversation for an hour. So he hadn't called in

99
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: a while, Sir scratch off, I was genuinely happy. That's

100
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: what a loser I am. I was genuinely happy to

101
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: hear his voice. That happiness lasted approximately and I don't

102
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: want to exaggerate and I do not want to exaggerate.

103
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: It lasted approximately eight seconds. Now some background for those

104
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: in the back of the room. Background for those of

105
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:53,600
Speaker 1: you in the back of room. I know JT the

106
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 1: Wingman will appreciate this, and so will Lucky Tony. Sir

107
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: scratch Off over the holidays, had sent me a a

108
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 1: bunch of messages on Facebook messager, and I am famously bad.

109
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: I always apologize in advance for responding to random messages

110
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 1: that I get. I get a high volume of messages.

111
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: It's part of the gig, and it's cool and all that.

112
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: And this is not an exaggeration. Though I have unopened emails,

113
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: I think that are old enough to cast a ballot

114
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: at this point. And because I was on holiday, I

115
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: saw his messages and I attempted something radical. It's called politeness.

116
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: I tried to respond, and I got a message from

117
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: Facebook informing me that I was not allowed to message

118
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 1: this particular user, which I found odd. This is not

119
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: a rejection you can process emotionally. It's not seen, it's

120
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: not left on red. It's a digital thing. I'm a

121
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 1: jig tapping you on the shoulder and saying, yeah, you're

122
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 1: not able to talk to this person, You're not on

123
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: a list. So naturally I mentioned this to Sir scratch

124
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 1: Off on the air. I said, listen, Sir scratch Off,

125
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 1: I tried to write back. He sounded dazed and confused,

126
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: as he often does, like a man being told his

127
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: mailbox has filled up and has now filed a restraining order,

128
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: And then, like a revival tent sprouting up overnight, the

129
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: sermon began. I didn't ask for the sermon. Did you

130
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: ask for the sermon? I didn't ask for the sermon. Well,

131
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: I got a sermon, and guess what, so did you.

132
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 1: It started with I like your show. The man said, now,

133
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 1: having done this whatever, this is long enough, we know

134
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: that that sentence is meaningless. Once the word but capital

135
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 1: be But enter's the chat. Everything before that is just

136
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: a runway. The crash is imminent. You know it is happening.

137
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: You know it is happening. So Sir scratch Off launches

138
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 1: into this long winded critique of my language, not your language,

139
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:30,119
Speaker 1: my language, my mouth, my vocabulary. This was less feedback

140
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 1: and more old testament, If you know what I'm saying.

141
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 1: He spoke with the confidence of a man, Sir scratch Off,

142
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: who had never accidentally sent a text to the wrong person,

143
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: then started to wonder, Oh my god, what have I done,

144
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,959
Speaker 1: and then stared at their phone praying for the power

145
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: outage to take place. So you want that power, just

146
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: the thing that doesn't happen. So we explained that, listen,

147
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 1: I do a lot of things. There's a lot of

148
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 1: things I'm not good at. There's a lot of things

149
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 1: I do I shouldn't do. I don't use profanity on radio,

150
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: not because I don't love profanity. I do love profanity.

151
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: I enjoy profanity. However, I am regulated by the Federal

152
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 1: Communications Commission, whether I like it or not. A group

153
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 1: of individuals that has many hobbies. None of them include

154
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 1: my happiness. None of them include my happiness. So I said, listen,

155
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: do you think I worked blue? He had no idea

156
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: what that meant. I guess that's even over his head.

157
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 1: So the FCC does not appreciate creative wordplay involving body parts.

158
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: They don't. They don't. They don't like pottymouth. So back

159
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:47,959
Speaker 1: and forth we went Southern Arkansas drawl versus West Coast

160
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 1: overnight sarcasm. And then then, because live radio has a

161
00:10:54,240 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: tremendous sense of humor. The gremlin arrived. Knock knock, Who's there?

162
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 1: The gremlin? The gremlin? Who so the broadcast line. My

163
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 1: broadcast line malfunctioned from the remote studio could put my

164
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: microphone went silent. In the business, this is a da situation.

165
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 3: Dead air? What who?

166
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 1: What? Whow so?

167
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 3: Dead air?

168
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: Maybe ten seconds? You understand that in radio ten seconds

169
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 1: is not silence. It is a geological area. Mountains can form.

170
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 1: There is an entire civilization that can rise up and

171
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: fall down in ten seconds. Somewhere A program director reaches

172
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: for antacid, just imagining this, so so scratch Off assumed,

173
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 1: since he didn't hear me barking at him, he assumed

174
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: the position that yours truly had hung up on him

175
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: very rudely. Something that has happened.

176
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 3: I had not.

177
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 1: I had not. He was still on the air. He

178
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,559
Speaker 1: was still on the air, and in what can only

179
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: be described as a master class in irony, the man

180
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 1: who had just spent several minutes lecturing me from the

181
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 1: church pew about my language, announced proudly and loudly on

182
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:40,679
Speaker 1: hundreds of radio stations, on satellite radio, on endless platforms

183
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: that I was an asshole. This is the moment live

184
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: radio earns its pension. There was no dump button, no edit,

185
00:12:54,440 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: no rewind, just Karma stretching, crackling its knuckle and saying

186
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: my turn. Now. Of course Lorraina did hit the dump button. However,

187
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: it was obvious that whatever had been said was not

188
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: supposed to be said, and it ended up on the podcast. Now,

189
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: the hypocrisy of all this was so clean, so delicious,

190
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 1: all that deserved a plaque.

191
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 3: A man think about that.

192
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:29,319
Speaker 1: A man delivers a sermon on verbal hygiene, the higher

193
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: better person, right, I'm better than you and I know

194
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 1: how you should talk, and then immediately swears on national

195
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 1: radio the moment he thinks the principal has left the room.

196
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: It was like watching someone complain about calories while eating

197
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 1: with a spoon frosting out of the container. I laughed,

198
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 1: not necessarily on the I think there's a little bit

199
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: of chuckle. I couldn't, but spiritually, I've been driving around

200
00:13:58,679 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 1: last couple of days.

201
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 3: I deep in the soul.

202
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 1: This was hilarious. And again this is another thing I

203
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: love doing this, all the stuff I do, the podcast whatever.

204
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 1: This is why podcasting will never fully replace live radio.

205
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 1: Podcasting does not betray you live radio. Absolutely will. And

206
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 1: that's the point. And so where does this rank? We

207
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 1: don't do a list. We do not believe in this

208
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 1: on Benny's Big Board for Terry and England, Benny's Big Board,

209
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 1: the long bizarre history of the Ben Maler Show. So

210
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 1: it's likely in the top twenty. It's not certainly near

211
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: the very top that's reserved. The very top is reserved

212
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: for the classics Genie and Medford, A Bushing her neighbor

213
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 1: on air, the farmer from Georgia. I don't remember the

214
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:54,359
Speaker 1: guy's name performing barnyard animal impressions.

215
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 3: I don't remember that.

216
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 1: Like he was auditioning for a children's show hosted by

217
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: Livestock mark the full name guy screaming and barking my direction,

218
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 1: hollering James snoring like a platypus, and somehow winning a

219
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: radio game show. Callers being pulled over mid sentence. We've

220
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: had a few of those. How about Randy from Norman, Oklahoma.

221
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 1: I was doing a commercial and in the copy I

222
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 1: believe the word bouncy or bouncy error was in the copy,

223
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 1: and Randy lost his bleeping mind. Randy in Norman, Oklahoma,

224
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: And that is how the phrase pro Bouncy Ball was

225
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: born as a tribute to Randy from Norman, Oklahoma. So

226
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: live radio is not perfect. It's not always clean, it

227
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: is not efficient, and sometimes, depending on what part of

228
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 1: the Bible belt you're in, it's not safe. However, it

229
00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: is honest. It exposes a lot, especially especially when we

230
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: think we're preaching wink wink, not not. Sir scratch Off

231
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: didn't just call the show that night. He contributed to

232
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: the audio archive, adding a chapter and reminded us you

233
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 1: and I reminded us that the universe is listening and

234
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: that sometimes the universe has a sense of humor. And

235
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 1: then I love the fact that he called back the

236
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: next day, Sir scratch Off defending the fact that he

237
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 1: said asshole on the radio show and he was quoting scripture,

238
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: he said, well, ass is in the Bible, and as

239
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: Coop pointed out, a whole is not anywhere anyway. I

240
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 1: know that podcasting is cool right now, and I'm doing

241
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 1: a podcast as I'm talking about this, and this is

242
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: going to be the future, and someday, someday I will

243
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: likely only do a podcast that'll be all I do.

244
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: I'll live a comfortable life and I'll record this whenever

245
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: I want. But moments like this or why I always

246
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,719
Speaker 1: believe in live rate, It's why I got into live radio.

247
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:11,880
Speaker 1: And when Karma speaks, it doesn't send a push notification,

248
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: it goes live.

249
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 3: We'll do it live.

250
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 1: We're gonna do it live, and we'll do it live

251
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 1: meanwhile on the QD. So if you didn't get the message,

252
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: maybe not. Today is not just your normal day.

253
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:26,359
Speaker 3: Well, it's a Friday, it is a Friday. However, do

254
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,159
Speaker 3: you know what this is?

255
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 1: No? Okay? Good? Today is Quitters Day on the QD.

256
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 1: It's Quittersday. It lands on the second Friday of January.

257
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 3: Today being January ninth.

258
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: This year, and just far enough from New Year's Eve

259
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: that the confetti has been vacuumed up by your hoover,

260
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 1: and just close enough that the treadmill receipt is still

261
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 1: in your inbox, so you have that.

262
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 3: So it is the only holiday.

263
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,360
Speaker 1: I'll say, see only holiday on the calendar that doesn't

264
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 1: pretend that we are better than we are.

265
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,120
Speaker 3: Now you think about Valentine's Day is next month.

266
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: Valentine's Day insists that you spend money on cards and

267
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 1: flowers and insists that we are romantic. Thanksgiving, claims that

268
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: we are grateful. Quitter's Day shrugs and says, you tried something,

269
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 1: it didn't work, and that's it. You know what are

270
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 1: you thinking? Welcome back, your quitter, Welcome back. Let me

271
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: give you a hug. It's the day the dream quietly

272
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,440
Speaker 1: slips out the back door. Now we've mentioned in previous

273
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 1: episodes that I do not do New Year's resolutions. This

274
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 1: is not a moral stance that I have taken that

275
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,879
Speaker 1: I am somehow better than you, so much as a

276
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 1: logistical one. And as I pointed out, if something is broken,

277
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: you fix it immediately, schedule the repair for a ceremonial

278
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:08,400
Speaker 1: date that exists mostly because a wall calendar flipped over.

279
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 1: For example, if your dishwasher is not working, if you

280
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: have a leak in your sink, you don't say, you

281
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:19,919
Speaker 1: know what, I'm gonna wait. It's it's November tenth, but

282
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna wait till January.

283
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 3: For no, you grab a wrench.

284
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 1: If you're gonna try to fix it yourself, you watch

285
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: some YouTube videos, or you call the roto router, call

286
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:33,200
Speaker 1: a plumber or whoever Mom and pop plumber even better,

287
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 1: And you do that, and maybe you put your own

288
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: bucket under there and at some point just admit defeat

289
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: and that's it. But either way, action beat symbolism all

290
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: the time. And this I've learned based on the feedback

291
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 1: I get from you, not that I write back to

292
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,119
Speaker 1: many of you. Put the feedback you send to me

293
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 1: apparently puts me in the minority. Most people love New

294
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:02,639
Speaker 1: Year's resolutions the way they of movie trailers, not because

295
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 1: they represent the reality, because they hint at a better

296
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 1: version of us in the future. There's a resolution, say

297
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,720
Speaker 1: you can watch a ninety minute or two hour film,

298
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,919
Speaker 1: but a trailer, it compresses the film down to a

299
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 1: couple of lines. It's like, I will get in shape,

300
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 1: I will eat better, I will lose weight. These are

301
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 1: not plans, these are taglines. Is it true that the

302
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:37,880
Speaker 1: tradition of New Year's resolutions is really really old?

303
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 3: How about four thousand?

304
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 1: About four thousand years old, they estimate, dating back to

305
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:47,399
Speaker 1: the ancient Babylonians. That sounds like a long time ago.

306
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 1: Their year did not even start on the first of January.

307
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 1: It began in mid March, on the first full moon

308
00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 1: after the spring equinox. Bringing the astrology insider Andrea for

309
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: more on this unless we don't.

310
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 3: So this already tells you.

311
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: You're talking about the Babylonians and you're talking about the

312
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 1: calendar being different. This tells you something important here. Resolutions

313
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:16,239
Speaker 1: were originally tied to things that really mattered instead of

314
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 1: get in shape, eat better, lose weight.

315
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 3: Not that those things don't matter.

316
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,400
Speaker 1: But back in the day, it was agriculture, it was seasons,

317
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 1: it was survival. It was not Hey, my fat ass

318
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,719
Speaker 1: is getting on the peloton and I've got a street

319
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: gone and all that, and I'm gonna stop drinking for

320
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,120
Speaker 1: the month of January. If you broke a promise back then,

321
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 1: it most likely met that as a Babylonian, your crops

322
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 1: failed or your gods got mad, not that you felt

323
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 1: mildly guilty while scrolling Instagram.

324
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:54,719
Speaker 3: So times have changed now.

325
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: Quitter's Day, which is today, exists to recognize those of

326
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: us who set goal not me, and fail to achieve them,

327
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:07,159
Speaker 1: and in theory, to encourage you to try again. So

328
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 1: it's equal parts compassionate and then brutal. It's the same

329
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:17,879
Speaker 1: at the same time. And research does show I was

330
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: reading about this, actually was it last week or the

331
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: week before that most people quit their new Year's resolutions

332
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,360
Speaker 1: around this time. That's why the holidays hear about eighty

333
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 1: percent tap out by week two, Tap tap, I'm out,

334
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,399
Speaker 1: see you later. It's not a failure rate. That is

335
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:40,120
Speaker 1: a demographic trend, is what that is. Eighty percent. Most resolutions,

336
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 1: according to experts, cluster around the same holy trinity. I

337
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 1: want to exercise more, I'm going to eat healthier, and

338
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: I am going to lose weight. The Big three, the

339
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 1: Big three, and these goals. While they are noble, they

340
00:22:56,160 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: are also abstract in the way clouds are abstract. You

341
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,239
Speaker 1: can't see them, you can't point at them, and you

342
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 1: can't grab them.

343
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 3: I'm I'm going to get in shape is not a plan.

344
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 3: It's a vibe.

345
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 1: It's like saying you're going to be more interesting or

346
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 1: finally understand jazz music. Okay, congratulations. The real problem with

347
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,360
Speaker 1: New Year's resolutions isn't laziness.

348
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 3: It's oh, a over ambition.

349
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 1: People start with a burst, right, You're all excited, Yeah,

350
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,919
Speaker 1: you have motivation that feels infinite. It's like a brand

351
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:40,919
Speaker 1: new notebook. You swear you're gonna you're gonna keep neat forever,

352
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: and then life happens and motivation leaks out.

353
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 3: Slowly, slowly, slowly, slowly.

354
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: Right leaks out a little bit there, like air from balloon.

355
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 3: You forget about behind you know, you kind of forget it.

356
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: The air comes out, it's behind the soulf or whatever.

357
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 3: And January.

358
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,159
Speaker 1: I know we're doing January ninth, but it's Quitter's Day today,

359
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 1: and people look at January first, and the way people

360
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: treat Mondays as a symbolic reset, even though the week

361
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: technically starts on Sunday, right, Sunday is the start of

362
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 1: the week, not Monday. But you go to work on Monday.

363
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: Most people don't work on Sunday, although the radio show

364
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 1: starts Sunday night in the Monday morning. And human behavior

365
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 1: does not reset cleanly.

366
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 3: It doesn't.

367
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:31,120
Speaker 1: It's more like a cluttered desktop where you keep creating

368
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 1: new folders labeled final, final, final, Final, and you don't

369
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,639
Speaker 1: end up deleting anything normally. What happens is I start

370
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 1: deleting stuff when I get the message you're running out

371
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 1: of stores. Well I don't want to run out of storage.

372
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,400
Speaker 1: Well you're running out of storage. Okay, so you better

373
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 1: release some how do you delete some? Okay? Let me

374
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,440
Speaker 1: watch a video on YouTube? Okay, I watched the video.

375
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 1: Now I gotta go click on the watch you might

376
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,119
Speaker 1: call it on the little logo on the upper left

377
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 1: hand side of the screen. I gotta click on that.

378
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: Then I gotta click on system preferences. Then I gotta

379
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:01,959
Speaker 1: click on this other little thing. And then I got

380
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 1: to leave us. But I can't believe everything because there's

381
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: some stuff I need, but I have to do it,

382
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,200
Speaker 1: and I got to do it. And that's it again,

383
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,880
Speaker 1: eighty percent of people giving up at roughly the same

384
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 1: time turns personal disappointment into a communal experience. It's kind

385
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 1: of like when everyone leaves a party at once, and

386
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:27,720
Speaker 1: you feel a little less awkward about wanting to leave. Now,

387
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 1: I try to do the Irish goodbye. As we've talked about,

388
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 1: my effort every time we go to a party is

389
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:36,159
Speaker 1: do the Irish goodbye. The wife does not want to

390
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: do the Irish goodbye, so that I get dragged in

391
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,879
Speaker 1: by marriage to having to do the long goodbye. And

392
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 1: then there's always I don't don't leave the party. Don't

393
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 1: leave the party that we need you to stay the

394
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: whole thing, all right. That's that's it, and so it's

395
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 1: it's just the way it is. And Quitter's Day is

396
00:25:54,119 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: social proof that it wasn't just you. The system is rigged.

397
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: It's a rig deal. The advice that follows is always

398
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:09,400
Speaker 1: the same. Well in you're supposed to set short term,

399
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 1: makeable goals, even ef it's a medium, I go short

400
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 1: term right. Long term goals are a recipe to stop

401
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 1: doing whatever you're doing. You just one step at a time,

402
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 1: break it down, make it manageable, bite sized pieces like

403
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: it's you don't feed a steak to a baby or

404
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 1: a toddler. You chop up the pieces of food from

405
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 1: the steak and you chew your food and all that stuff.

406
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 1: That's good advice. It's also obvious. There's obvious advice, which

407
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,159
Speaker 1: raises the question of why we ignore it every single

408
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: year and almost every single time, almost every single time,

409
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 1: we ignore it. Now, maybe it's because the small goal

410
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 1: is not cinematic, if you know what I'm saying right,

411
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:04,439
Speaker 1: Nobody wants a montage where the hero flosses constantly and

412
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:08,439
Speaker 1: walks thirty minutes a day and drinks a lot of water.

413
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: We want the transformation. It's like watching the show house

414
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,439
Speaker 1: Hunters or love it or list it right, and so

415
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 1: you can watch it and they'll go through the whole thing.

416
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 1: And you know, however, you can just fast forward to

417
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: the end, say all right, well which one did they pick?

418
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,159
Speaker 1: They got three options, which one did they pick? And

419
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 1: then just fast forward.

420
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 3: There you go.

421
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,360
Speaker 1: You want the before and after, you want the dramatic reveal.

422
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 3: You'd like that. And you know, life is not a montage.

423
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:47,159
Speaker 1: It's the slow panshot and change happens the way that

424
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 1: rust forms quietly and just little by the little. There's

425
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:52,919
Speaker 1: no real applause there.

426
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 3: And that's again another issue.

427
00:27:55,119 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 1: With New Year's Resolutions, that you know, it's designed for

428
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 1: those of us who who want the glory and want

429
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 1: it right away, and then it exposes no. Quitter's Day,

430
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 1: which is today, exposes that there's a bit of.

431
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 3: A gap there.

432
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 1: It's the moment when the dream meets habit and habit

433
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 1: wins by ko knockout. So again, Quitter's Day, as I said,

434
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 1: might just be that's a weasel word, the most honest

435
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:35,919
Speaker 1: holiday we have. And it doesn't judge. It just notes

436
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 1: that the data and it shrugs and it winks and

437
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 1: there you go. So that's where we are. And if

438
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: you quit, whether it was today or the last couple

439
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: of days. Good luck. You have until January first, twenty

440
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: twenty seven, twenty twenty seven, you can do it all

441
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 1: over again. Whoop the damn dude. Yes, absolutely all right.

442
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:08,760
Speaker 1: On that note, reminder, Benny versus the penny is up.

443
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 1: We'll have all the episodes up and running by the

444
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 1: end of the day today for a week week number zero.

445
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 1: It's the zero week for the playoffs, right well, it's

446
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 1: called wildcard weekend in the NFL, so we've got that covered.

447
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: The Rams start off the playoffs against Carolina that game on.

448
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 3: Saturday Saturday, Saturday.

449
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 1: Afternoon, and then continue all the way all the way

450
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 1: through Monday night when the Steelers and the Texans play.

451
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 1: We got picks on every single game. We'll have fresh

452
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: podcast here on Saturday and Sunday as well the mail.
