Speaker 1: Kabooms.
Speaker 2: If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants
Speaker 2: of the old republic, a sol fashion of fairness. He
Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 2: The Clearinghouse of Hot takes break free for something special.
Speaker 2: The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now.

Speaker 1: Sunday Sunday. The other half of the Final four of
Speaker 1: the NFL will be determined today. We got double barrel action,
Speaker 1: some weird starting times, not weird but not normal. Things
Speaker 1: are a little wonkye in the NFL's time of the year.
Speaker 1: So the early game today, Danny, we've got the Lions
Speaker 1: and the Box that'll start at three o'clock eastern, but

Speaker 1: This is six thirty eastern, three point thirty in the West,
Speaker 1: we will have the Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills. Will
Speaker 1: we get lake effects snow? In Orchard Park, New York?
Speaker 1: Inquiring minds would like to know, but Eddy were united
Speaker 1: here on this the twenty first day of January.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm more concerned about the snow that's going
Speaker 3: to be in Detroit.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, that's good journalism there. The newspaper business is
Speaker 1: going very well. Do we know who that person was
Speaker 1: that asked the question?
Speaker 4: We know they've they've been hiding her like secret ninjajas.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you think the reaction is? Remember those
Speaker 1: sideline reporters that got all upset with Carrissa Thompson when
Speaker 1: she Remember she did that thing a few months ago
Speaker 1: where she said that she just got made up quotes
Speaker 1: and all these other women attacked her. Can you imagine
Speaker 1: what those women's sideline reporters think of this woman that question?
Speaker 1: Holy crap on a cracker. Wow.
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you don't know what we're talking about. A
Speaker 3: female reporter asked Todd Bulls, the coach of the Bucks,
Speaker 3: how he was going to make adjustments with his players
Speaker 3: for the very cold weather in Detroit, and he very
Speaker 3: politely He was very polite.
Speaker 4: He very politely told her.
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know if you know, but they play
Speaker 3: in a dome there, so twenty seconds that will be
Speaker 3: in the weather from the bus to the venue.
Speaker 4: I think my players can handle it.
Speaker 1: So so good, so good. She did, and she did
Speaker 1: like the long winding road question.
Speaker 4: Yeah, super proud of her question.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And you normally only get one question at these things,
Speaker 1: and that's the question. You drove, you got in your car,
Speaker 1: you drove down to the Buccaneers facility, and you sat
Speaker 1: there and waited for your opportunity, and this was the
Speaker 1: question you asked this. What hell was her backup question?
Speaker 1: My goodness? Anyway, why don't we just get to the mailbag.
Speaker 1: I have some other stuff. Well, we'll start with the
Speaker 1: mailbag and then see where we're at. How about that,
Speaker 1: let's do.
Speaker 4: The yo al strike up the band. It's this mail
Speaker 4: bang there.
Speaker 1: He is our buddy, the great Ohio al Man has
Speaker 1: provided us with great content and we play it every
Speaker 1: week on this show. We do the mailbag every Sunday.
Speaker 1: If you would like to send letters into the mailbag.
Speaker 1: We've got some new voices. The last couple weeks have
Speaker 1: been great and I love that we've got some new
Speaker 1: people writing in. Not that we don't love the same
Speaker 1: that write in every week, but we want to get
Speaker 1: some new people on the mail bag. So if you've listened,
Speaker 1: and we know the numbers, you're listening, and if you
Speaker 1: want to be one of the newbies on the mail bag,
Speaker 1: you can email me Real fifth hour at gmail dot
Speaker 1: com me and Danny Greel fifth hour at gmail dot com.
Speaker 1: Ask us anything you want, any kind of question you want,
Speaker 1: and will be good to go. And these are actual
Speaker 1: questions by actual fellow pod listeners who have either sent
Speaker 1: email into the Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com
Speaker 1: or posted on the Facebook page which is Ben Malors Show.
Speaker 1: First one comes from Craigster, coach list in Seattle, says, hey,
Speaker 1: Ben and Danny, I've got two questions for you. What
Speaker 1: advice would you give a first time better on how
Speaker 1: to place a football bet at a Las Vegas sportsbook?
Speaker 1: And what's the age of the oldest woman you've considered
Speaker 1: to be hot? He says, I hope we both have
Speaker 1: the same definition of hot. That is from Craigster in Seattle.
Speaker 1: So I'll handle the first one and then you can
Speaker 1: handle the second one. The first one. Yeah, my advice
Speaker 1: always when it comes to sports betting, there's a couple
Speaker 1: of things that I tell people that are just the
Speaker 1: general baseline rules. The most important thing is it is recreation.
Speaker 1: You're not going to make a living betting on sports.
Speaker 1: You're not, So you have to go into this with
Speaker 1: the mindset you have a budget, and if you go
Speaker 1: over the budget or you reach the budget, that's it.
Speaker 1: You have a certain amount of money disposable income that
Speaker 1: you're willing to bet. Now, after that, you have to
Speaker 1: come up with a formula, and everyone's got their own thing.
Speaker 1: Generally speaking, if you actually want to have a shot
Speaker 1: to win, you have to bet an odd number of
Speaker 1: straight bets. You cannot bet rlas. You will just do
Speaker 1: the math on the parlay. I know people get upset
Speaker 1: when I say this, but the parlay is like a
Speaker 1: lottery ticket. Yeah, people win the lottery, but not many, right,
Speaker 1: not many? And when people do win the lottery, it's
Speaker 1: astonishing because they defied the eye popping odds. So the
Speaker 1: way that you need to do it is yet you
Speaker 1: pick either three games or five games. Usually the sweet
Speaker 1: spot for most people would be three games on a
Speaker 1: given NFL Sunday. If you can find three games that
Speaker 1: you feel are intriguing enough for you to put a
Speaker 1: little money down, and then it's it comes down to
Speaker 1: money management. You have a budget and you have a
Speaker 1: certain amount of money that you have to wager. Now
Speaker 1: you have to know going in here the house advantage
Speaker 1: on this and what you need to do in order
Speaker 1: to win. There's a certain percentage that you have to hit.
Speaker 1: And I know we talked about this on benny versus
Speaker 1: the penny and the percentage because if you just win
Speaker 1: half your bets, you lose money because of the juice.
Speaker 1: You've got to go over that number. The juice is
Speaker 1: what gets you, and so you have to win. I
Speaker 1: think the fine, I think the percentage is like fifty
Speaker 1: three and a half percent or something like that. But
Speaker 1: usually if you do three bets, you win two out
Speaker 1: of three, you've won a little bit of money. Maybe
Speaker 1: you'll win all three and that's great and you're you're
Speaker 1: wonderful and you can go out and have a big
Speaker 1: party and all that. But that's what you look work
Speaker 1: because the house, the house advantage is to win one
Speaker 1: hundred usually have to be one hundred and ten or
Speaker 1: one hundred and five to win one hundred and then
Speaker 1: they make their money on that extra extra percentage. It's
Speaker 1: the house the house edge. So money management is the
Speaker 1: is the main thing. And you know, you don't want
Speaker 1: to go crazy with this stuff, and that's that's the problem.
Speaker 1: But people go into these casinos, Danny, and they don't
Speaker 1: realize the house edge. Their sensibilities go away and they
Speaker 1: think chi ching, chi ching, chiching, and it's not chi
Speaker 1: ching chi ching. Welcome to realityville.
Speaker 4: And you're like a gambling there. That was a really.
Speaker 3: And uh, I guess it's like Mark Shawn Lynch famously said,
Speaker 3: no juice.
Speaker 1: Well, you know here is is because I've had so
Speaker 1: many guys email me over the years saying, dude, I
Speaker 1: lost so much money. You know, I got to get
Speaker 1: out of the hole. And I'm like, dude, what are
Speaker 1: you doing? Don't get in the freaking hole. Okay, just
Speaker 1: avoid the hole. But keep in mind, Danny, that I
Speaker 1: give this advice regularly when people email me, all right,
Speaker 1: back off into the newbies. They don't listen. They still
Speaker 1: they still do whatever they want to do, and they
Speaker 1: waste their money and all that stuff, and so uh
Speaker 1: that and Also when you one other piece of advice, Crikster,
Speaker 1: when you're betting on sports, try to avoid where the
Speaker 1: popular teams are, Like the Dallas Cowboys are a great example.
Speaker 1: The Cowboys are always inflated on the point spread. You're
Speaker 1: not getting a lot of value with the Cowboys because
Speaker 1: there's so many Cowboy fans and so many people that
Speaker 1: bet on the Cowboys at the the gambling houses inflate
Speaker 1: the line on the Lakers and Cowboys always have inflated lines.
Speaker 1: That's a couple of examples there, and so you just
Speaker 1: have to kind of know that going in and you know,
Speaker 1: figure it out. But that was a long answer to
Speaker 1: a short question. Now, Danny, the main question from Fresher,
Speaker 1: what's the age of the oldest woman you have considered
Speaker 1: to be hot?
Speaker 3: Two fifty four year olds that are still in the
Speaker 3: hot category. That would be one Jennifer Lopez and two
Speaker 3: Jennifer Aniston a couple of Jennifer's and Ben I got
Speaker 3: to point out Jennifer Aniston is on a great Apple
Speaker 3: TV series called The Morning Show. Is worth getting the
Speaker 3: free three month trial to Apple tv just to watch this.
Speaker 3: You would especially like this, Ben, because it's behind the scenes,
Speaker 3: all the drama and mayhem that goes on with big
Speaker 3: corporations behind the scenes of this TV morning show got
Speaker 3: National Morning show. It is awesome, so well produced, directed, written,
Speaker 3: and Jennifer Aniston and an actor named Billy Krut. He
Speaker 3: is an amazing actor in this series. So once again
Speaker 3: the Morning Show.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I don't know the exact age, I will
Speaker 1: tell you Craig, and I don't know if you feel
Speaker 1: this way Danny as well. But as I have gotten older,
Speaker 1: the age of women I consider hot has also gotten older.
Speaker 1: He has like a sliding scale, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Like when I was younger, I was like, you know,
Speaker 1: c it gives us like a cut off at like
Speaker 1: you know, thirty five or something like that. But as
Speaker 1: I've gotten older, the age has gone up. The age
Speaker 1: has gone up, and it's it's on a case by
Speaker 1: case basis. So I don't know. I just like no
Speaker 1: names that I have at the top of my head.
Speaker 1: But I have noticed as I've gotten older that the
Speaker 1: age of the women that I find attractive has also
Speaker 1: gone which I think is the way it's supposed to work.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that makes sense if you and I were both
Speaker 3: still single. Guys, our dating app would be our Time
Speaker 3: dot com. It's our Time.
Speaker 1: Yes, Oh you like Rob Parker and dat the Golden Girls.
Speaker 1: You know you just go out girls and all that.
Speaker 1: Fory Wright said with the mailback, Ben and Danage, what
Speaker 1: is the most awkward meeting that you have had with
Speaker 1: a p one in person? That is a dangerous question
Speaker 1: I've had. I've had the full spectrum of meet and
Speaker 1: greets with fans of the show, and most of them
Speaker 1: have been great. They've been wonderful. I mean even the
Speaker 1: bad ones have been good. The craziest that I'll give
Speaker 1: you a couple examples right now, Corey. I met Doc
Speaker 1: Mike in Kansas City. I was at a meet and
Speaker 1: greet at a restaurant that named chicken Fingers after me
Speaker 1: in Kansas City a long time ago. I'm going to
Speaker 1: decapitate a goat and bring it to that restaurant. Yes,
Speaker 1: he shows up, he has his own table, he's autographing
Speaker 1: T shirts, he's just calling the show. He's just Doc Mike.
Speaker 1: He printed up some T shirts. He had more stuff
Speaker 1: to give out than I had, which was odd. And
Speaker 1: then when the event ended, we were walking to our
Speaker 1: rental car and Doc he walks out. He's like, hey,
Speaker 1: I got something for you. So we're in this neighborhood
Speaker 1: I'm unfamiliar with in Kansas City. It wasn't a terrible neighborhood,
Speaker 1: but it was like a great neighborhood. I didn't really
Speaker 1: know what kind of neighborhood it was. I'd never been
Speaker 1: in Kansas City before. It didn't seem like it was
Speaker 1: the nicest part of town. So we're walking to the
Speaker 1: rental car. Doc's like, oh, hold on a sec. It's
Speaker 1: kind of a dark street. DOC says, hold on, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna get something. He gets down on his hands and knees.
Speaker 1: He's like Futson around behind his car. We don't know
Speaker 1: what he's doing. He then stands up at the time
Speaker 1: I'm dating my wife, he stands up in this dark
Speaker 1: street holding up a screwdriver. So you see docs like
Speaker 1: eyes and then you see the screwdriver. He says, I
Speaker 1: got something for you, and he holds up the screwdriver,
Speaker 1: and then on the other hand, he holds up a
Speaker 1: license plate. He had taken his license plate off of
Speaker 1: his car and given us the doc mic license plate,
Speaker 1: which is the second greatest license plate that I own.
Speaker 1: The greatest license plate is one of the imprisoned members
Speaker 1: of the Mallard militia who had a license plate from
Speaker 1: the state of Florida snuck out of prison with my
Speaker 1: name on it and sent to the radio station, which
Speaker 1: is still nuts to me that I know. How do
Speaker 1: you sneak out a license plate from a prison? I
Speaker 1: don't know, but the guy did it. And I think
Speaker 1: the statute of limitations has run out on that because
Speaker 1: it's been about twenty years. But and I I met
Speaker 1: Roscoe the Parrot and David from Winter Park, Florida in Boston.
Speaker 1: That was odd. He drove all the way from Florida
Speaker 1: for a two hour meeting meet and greet at the
Speaker 1: Cask and Flagging in Boston, right there across from Finway.
Speaker 1: And he's quite the character. He said he had Roscoe
Speaker 1: the Parrot. So I was like, I want to meet
Speaker 1: Roscoe the Parrot. He said, sure, no problem, on Rosco's
Speaker 1: in the car. I'm gonna go get Rosco. I'll bring
Speaker 1: him back in. So he goes out to the car.
Speaker 1: I forget about it. About fifteen minutes later he walks
Speaker 1: back into the place and there he is with Roscoe
Speaker 1: the Parrot. A stuffed animal parrot, and he pretended to
Speaker 1: talk like like the parrot could talk. It was it's wild. Well,
Speaker 1: what about you that you've met some.
Speaker 4: Frid Yeah, usual, Yeah.
Speaker 3: I won't bore you with the stories about the female
Speaker 3: listeners I impregnated. Instead, there was Rod, the mayor of Bakersfield,
Speaker 3: who came to the studios one night to prepare stakes
Speaker 3: for us, like he had done one time in the past.
Speaker 3: His buddy rode along with him, and his buddy was
Speaker 3: super drunk in our kitchen. Still remember the look on
Speaker 3: your face as this drunk dude was waving around butcher knives.
Speaker 1: I recall this night.
Speaker 5: I have.
Speaker 1: Vague memories of actually not even vague memories. I recall
Speaker 1: the awkward position that we were all in because of
Speaker 1: what had happened, Like we invited Rod and we didn't.
Speaker 1: I don't think we invited his buddy to come with us, right.
Speaker 3: No, No, we love Rod to death. He's been a
Speaker 3: great p one. But this guy who his friend who
Speaker 3: rode with him, was you know, drinking shotgu style a
Speaker 3: little too much. On the ride from Bakersfield to Sherman Oaks. Boy,
Speaker 3: he was all over the place talk about sloppy drunks.
Speaker 1: I'm on drugs right now.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 3: This guy was scary in our hallways and in our kitchen,
Speaker 3: and you nicely asked Rod to get him out of
Speaker 3: our building.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And so Rod drove all the way from Bakersfield down
Speaker 1: to LA to our studio, which is a decent drive.
Speaker 1: And before we had even really gotten going, I pulled
Speaker 1: Rod aside. I said, Rod, you gotta you know, I mean,
Speaker 1: I love you. You got to get rid of this guy.
Speaker 1: And he's, you know, he can't be here. And so
Speaker 1: Rob he did the honorable thing. He got in the
Speaker 1: car and drove back. He left and didn't even make
Speaker 1: it to the meat meet of the show. That was
Speaker 1: That was an interesting night.
Speaker 4: We didn't get to make it to the meat of
Speaker 4: the meat.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly cut that meat. The Marina chef rights in
Speaker 1: from Omaha, Nebraska, Omah Home. He says, what was your
Speaker 1: favorite toy when you were little? He says, I was
Speaker 1: always into the Transformers. So we've been asked this question
Speaker 1: from time to time. I had a revolving I didn't
Speaker 1: have one specific favorite toy, but I loved playing not
Speaker 1: really stickball, but we played baseball in the neighborhood. We'd
Speaker 1: have games in the front yard with tennis balls and racquetballs,
Speaker 1: and I had a lot of fun playing baseball, so
Speaker 1: I guess a baseball love and a baseball bat. When
Speaker 1: I was little low we had whatever the hot toy was.
Speaker 1: You know, we were pretty lucky. My mom woul hook
Speaker 1: us up. We had a lot of Star Wars toys.
Speaker 1: I remember that was big when we were little, playing
Speaker 1: with the stuff, which is worth a fair amount of money. Now,
Speaker 1: what was your go to toy, Danny when you were little.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: We also had some action figures and a couple of
Speaker 3: smaller remote control cars.
Speaker 4: We used to have what they called Stomper trucks. Do
Speaker 4: you remember those.
Speaker 3: You put a little battery in it and you could
Speaker 3: the tires were like interchangeable. I remember those being cool.
Speaker 3: As far as playing outdoors, we had this squishy raider football.
Speaker 3: It was like filled with gel It was like a
Speaker 3: jelly football, and we wore that thing into the ground
Speaker 3: and we must have played at least one hundred backyard
Speaker 3: football games with that raider football.
Speaker 1: Awesome. Yeah, I have fond, fond members of playing with
Speaker 1: the guys at the park in the neighborhood guys and
Speaker 1: having a grand time. But that was before the internet,
Speaker 1: and if we had the internet done any of.
Speaker 3: It we had we had to go outside. I know,
Speaker 3: near us there was a grapefruit field, so we had
Speaker 3: grapefruit fights.
Speaker 4: Near you. You did that with didn't you do that with? Orange? Oranges? Oranges?
Speaker 1: That's right, o Sea, Orange County. I was the surrounded
Speaker 1: by orange grows when I was growing up. Next to
Speaker 1: the mailbag Reggie from Virginia Rights and he says, hey, Ben, hi, Dan,
Speaker 1: I heard you on the radio band talking about steven
Speaker 1: A this week Yeah, Regie, we actually talked about it
Speaker 1: on the podcast this weekend. Also, he says, you were
Speaker 1: Rob's birthday. Do you think that stephen A has paid
Speaker 1: up his dues to what you call the FSR Alumni Association, Danny,
Speaker 1: Has he paid up? Do you think stephen I don't know.
Speaker 1: I haven't checked the the bankroll. I'm guessing stephen A
Speaker 1: probably doesn't pay his dues at this point right here.
Speaker 1: If he figures he's you know better than us, you know, he's.
Speaker 4: Moving, he's exempt.
Speaker 1: You don't want to make an enemy out of me. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: Bobby and Birmingham, right, So he says, guys enjoy the show.
Speaker 1: He says, Ben, you seemed upset this week when a
Speaker 1: caller played password and did not know how to play
Speaker 1: the game. He says, was that real or was that
Speaker 1: a bit? And if that is real, how did that happen? Well,
Speaker 1: you know, I don't listen it happened. I wish it
Speaker 1: hadn't happened. To answer the question, how it had, I
Speaker 1: don't know how it happened. I mean, clearly the guy
Speaker 1: got on the air and he didn't know what he
Speaker 1: was doing, which is a problem. It would not have
Speaker 1: been a problem if Eddie he had picked Eddie. The
Speaker 1: guy picked me, though, So I give out a synonym
Speaker 1: on password and he's like, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I had no idea.
Speaker 4: How plenty that was some great call screening.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Danny. I mean, I'm like, how did
Speaker 1: you get on the air to play the game and
Speaker 1: you don't even know how to play the game? But
Speaker 1: it happened. Yeah, Steven Milwaukee Right. Since it's Ben and Danny,
Speaker 1: I've noticed that the the Hot Stove League has been
Speaker 1: rather quiet this offseason. The Yankees got Juan Soto that
Speaker 1: your Dodgers got Otani but not many other big moves.
Speaker 1: Why why has that been Well, Steve, if I knew
Speaker 1: what the answer to that was, I would I would
Speaker 1: be worth a gazillion dogar No, I might. I have
Speaker 1: a theory. I don't want to go too sporty, but
Speaker 1: my theory is it's because of the analytics, and it's
Speaker 1: it's a combination of the analytics. On one side, the
Speaker 1: teams don't want to spend for players who are free
Speaker 1: agents because they think they're declining assets. Because you normally,
Speaker 1: you normally these days don't become a free agent unless
Speaker 1: you're either a one percenter or you're just kind of
Speaker 1: on the edge of being washed up. And so teams
Speaker 1: are paranoid, they're suspicious of these free agents. They don't
Speaker 1: trust them. And then on the other side, you've got
Speaker 1: the agent Scott Morris and the other agents that they
Speaker 1: believe that they should be paid top dollar all agents do,
Speaker 1: and you know, they think that they're getting screwed over
Speaker 1: and they're not going to take a dollar less. And
Speaker 1: so you have these two sides at Loggerheads, and so
Speaker 1: that's what we get. But this has happened in the
Speaker 1: last couple of years. It's not new. People think it's new,
Speaker 1: But hasn't it been like four or five years maybe
Speaker 1: longer to anywhere? We have players unsigned. Spring training starts
Speaker 1: like a month from now, and we still have name
Speaker 1: brand players that are on the market that haven't signed.
Speaker 1: And I remember when JD. Martinez was a freeze. This
Speaker 1: probably goes back seven years. He is a free agent.
Speaker 1: He signed with the Red Sox after spring training started.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right, that was like seven seasons ago.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a long time ago, and I recall that.
Speaker 1: So it's not it's not unusual. This is just a
Speaker 1: new normal. Who else we have, Mike and Fullerton Wright say?
Speaker 1: He says, Happy New Year? You know we're done with that, Mike.
Speaker 1: We don't do Happy New Year anymore. It's it's look
Speaker 1: at the date on the calendar. Okay, we're past mid
Speaker 1: January anyway. He says, Hey, guys, I know someone going
Speaker 1: to the Detroit Lion game. He states, here, I know
Speaker 1: somebody going to the Lions game today and a little
Speaker 1: worried they will not be able to handle the cold.
Speaker 1: Do you have any last second tips on what my
Speaker 1: friend can do to better acclimate themselves, so the frigid weather,
Speaker 1: he says. Very funny, He says, have you gotten used
Speaker 1: to riding twenty twenty four? Yet I still accidentally start
Speaker 1: the year with a one sometimes very very funny mike.
Speaker 4: He also says, happy New Year.
Speaker 1: Yes, I know, Fullerton, it's like, you know, it's like
Speaker 1: a fifty year, fifty years behind where we are. JJ
Speaker 1: and Phoenix rites in Ben. I heard you do almost
Speaker 1: an entire hour on cheeseburgers and poutine the other night.
Speaker 1: I thought it was one of the better hours you've
Speaker 1: done since I started listening about four years ago. I
Speaker 1: wanted to know if you've got in any trouble by
Speaker 1: doing that. It's from JJ no JJ. Fortunately none of
Speaker 1: my boss has heard that, and if they did hear,
Speaker 1: they pretended like it didn't happen. So I did almost
Speaker 1: a whole hour Danny, because Iowa Sam brought up some
Speaker 1: kind of food dish get out, I think about up
Speaker 1: cheese curds, and then that led to cheeseburgers, and then
Speaker 1: we were gone for like forty five minutes on the
Speaker 1: greatest burger place and that kind of thing. And then
Speaker 1: I was pointing out to Eddie. I was like, well,
Speaker 1: this is kind of what we do on the Fifth
Speaker 1: Hour podcast with Danny. I'm like, I just break down
Speaker 1: food a lot, you know, I fast and that all
Speaker 1: that nonsense.
Speaker 4: Really quick, I should point out I got.
Speaker 3: A talking to oh a few days ago because I
Speaker 3: said that Rich was gonna lose his shit Zue Puppy
Speaker 3: on the air. I said, yeah, if the Niners lose
Speaker 3: to the Ravens in the Super Bowl, Rich will lose
Speaker 3: his shit. Zoo who Apparently you can't do that in
Speaker 3: the daytime because the manager who spoke to me, I said, well,
Speaker 3: we used to say that on Malur all the time,
Speaker 3: and he's like, yeah, that's insane Harbor.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well we can get away with it.
Speaker 4: So stupid. The word shit should be okay, twenty four
Speaker 4: hours a day.
Speaker 1: I'm right there with you. I do not understand how
Speaker 1: that's on the knotty list.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's dumb. And so what do I replace that with?
Speaker 3: Do I say shataki mushrooms?
Speaker 4: Next time?
Speaker 1: He's gonna have to give up his ship. You know
Speaker 1: you do ship that you probably get in trouble.
Speaker 4: With that ship lost his ship in the night.
Speaker 1: Back in the nineties at the local station in La.
Speaker 1: The boss thought it would be funny to have one
Speaker 1: hour shows in the evening. He had the Big Hucking
Speaker 1: Hockey Show. Everybody, Big fucking Hockey.
Speaker 3: It was a yeah, yeah, that's not an FCC find
Speaker 3: waiting to happen.
Speaker 1: Oh no, not not at all. But does anyone And
Speaker 1: I don't know the answer to this. Maybe you don't either,
Speaker 1: You probably don't. Why would you Has anyone gotten into
Speaker 1: trouble with the FCC just for the S word, just
Speaker 1: for saying shit?
Speaker 4: I don't think so.
Speaker 3: And I don't think even in the Bible Belt, if
Speaker 3: you're goofing around saying shitsu or shataki, I don't think
Speaker 3: anybody would call and complain.
Speaker 1: You would like to think, not by kids.
Speaker 3: In the car and a host laughs and says a
Speaker 3: shitsu dog or chataki mushroom. I don't care if my
Speaker 3: kid hears that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I'm right there with you. But I get
Speaker 1: calls from the Bible Belt all the time. But we're
Speaker 1: big in the Bible Belt. I got for example, I'll
Speaker 1: give you an example. Our guy from Arkansas, Sir scratch
Speaker 1: Off or whatever his name is, Dad Gummant, we call
Speaker 1: him now. This guy is in the Bible belt. He's
Speaker 1: a religious guy, talks about God good for him, and
Speaker 1: then every once in a while he'll call up and
Speaker 1: just start using profanity because he's a truck driver.
Speaker 4: Blank my blank and blank you.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get out on this. We have one more.
Speaker 1: Alf from the filling station, says Ben and Danny. I
Speaker 1: don't know about you, guys, but I'm the kind of
Speaker 1: person that likes a physical receipt in hand for good purchase,
Speaker 1: goods purchase, or any type of transaction. This way, I
Speaker 1: have a record of said transaction for future reference if
Speaker 1: need be, and I have proof that I did not
Speaker 1: rip anyone off. I bring this off because it seems
Speaker 1: the majority of the time when pumping gas at local
Speaker 1: convenience stores, after pressing yes when asked if I want
Speaker 1: a receipt, the screen says, see clerk for receipt. Is
Speaker 1: it just me or why in the year twenty twenty
Speaker 1: four can gas pumps not be smart enough to know
Speaker 1: that they're out of receipt paper prior to asking or
Speaker 1: said receipt. That is a fair point there, Alf, I'm
Speaker 1: old enough to remember. I I'm nostalgic for when you
Speaker 1: would buy a ticket to a sporting event, you actually
Speaker 1: get a ticket.
Speaker 4: And not that was cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was kind of neat back in the day.
Speaker 1: And my theory on the gas station thing, ALF is
Speaker 1: that they're just lazy and it's got to be a
Speaker 1: pain in the ass. You're always going out to put
Speaker 1: more paper in the different machines.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like McDonald's ice cream machines.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just inc an inconvenience is what it is. ALF
Speaker 1: also says, thanks to Danny for remembering my previous question
Speaker 1: regards darding rotaries or roundabouts when you read the question
Speaker 1: last week by another listener. Once again, Danny is the
Speaker 1: Bennett that got away, someone who is actually present when
Speaker 1: you're speaking and doesn't mention things that you already referenced
Speaker 1: in your monologues, like an update or an entertainment segment.
Speaker 1: So so he says, well, look at ALF a big
Speaker 1: fan of yours, Danny, Jenny A ringing endorsement from Alf
Speaker 1: the alien o Pinter. We'll get out of that. We
Speaker 1: have football, football football today, Buccaneers and Lions this afternoon
Speaker 1: three o'clock eastern noon Pacific again, and then the late
Speaker 1: game Consolsoy and Buffalo. I'll be on tonight overnight all
Speaker 1: night breaking those games down, all the games this weekend,
Speaker 1: point by point, will slice them and dice them and
Speaker 1: toss them all up in the air and all that
Speaker 1: good stuff as we break down the wood ball weekend
Speaker 1: down to the final four by the end of the
Speaker 1: day today. How crazy is that in the NFL. So
Speaker 1: we will get to all that Danny anything going on today.
Speaker 3: Just like last Sunday, I'm going to head over to
Speaker 3: Rich Davis's house. He's going to have the crew from
Speaker 3: our show together to watch the second game of the day.
Speaker 3: So that should be fun, and then we'll talk about
Speaker 3: what happened on the show Monday afternoon, five to seven
Speaker 3: pm in New Hampshire.
Speaker 1: All right, wonderful, have a great rest of your day
Speaker 1: to day and we'll talk to you tonight back on
Speaker 1: the Magic Radio Box. We'll talk to you then.
Speaker 4: Aloha mahallo. Later, dog got a murder.
Speaker 6: I gotta go, hey, hey, hey, let you go insane
Speaker 6: to me that you would pay your hard earned money
Speaker 6: in lot go watch.
Speaker 1: Him suck very expensive cool. The team's terrible. I mean
Speaker 1: I was out there on Sunday night. They they're really bad.
Speaker 1: I mean, they're just they lost to a team. We're
Speaker 1: in high school uniforms.
Speaker 5: People like you Ben, who are bandwagon FANSY.
Speaker 1: Jumped on the Clipper bandwagon.
Speaker 6: Yes, he jumped on that bandwagon at a really weird time.
Speaker 1: Coop, Yeah, in twelve games, I thought, well, this would
Speaker 1: be a good bandwagon to jump on.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: I told here's my advice to Coop Eddie. I told him,
Speaker 1: I said, listen, you buy tickets right behind the Laker backboard. Okay,
Speaker 1: because maybe Kobe is shooting an airball right keep it and
Speaker 1: it's like a souvenir airball. That's what they ought to
Speaker 1: do the Lakers. When Kobe shoots an air ball, if
Speaker 1: a fan gets it, they get to keep it. That'd
Speaker 1: be like a baseball move, and that'd be great, that
Speaker 1: would be great, awesome. You guys are ridiculous.
Speaker 4: Then the weight of the world has been lifted off.
Speaker 6: Ridiculous.
Speaker 4: I'm not ridiculous.
Speaker 5: No, I'm not saying that he's a great players that
Speaker 5: we should be celebrating this final year.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it happens.
Speaker 5: Guys get old down, and so why do we gotta
Speaker 5: like take a big dump on him while.
Speaker 1: It chose to come by? I can play. That's his decision.
Speaker 1: He could have retired a couple of years ago. He
Speaker 1: wants he getting twenty five millions.
Speaker 5: He's the best competitor we've ever seen, and he wanted
Speaker 5: to see if he could come back from the injury.
Speaker 1: He can fault him for that great wingman without shock
Speaker 1: and pogasol. They sound like Mike Norton won nothing he need.
Speaker 1: Coops now walked out of the city. There's Coops now leaving.
Speaker 1: He's now walking out to a Ventur Boulevard in Los
Speaker 1: Angeles and he's going, it's kind of cold out there,
Speaker 1: Coop for la. I don't know if you want to
Speaker 1: go out there, all right, eight.
Speaker 6: Make sure you got your key cards. He can get
Speaker 6: back in.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're not letting you back in eight seven, seven
Speaker 1: ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven. I'm gonna upset
Speaker 1: that guy Ace too. I know he's listening, right, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: call back apologized man.
Speaker 3: Not one more airball for the rest of the season.
Speaker 3: Because the weight of the world's been lifted off of
Speaker 3: Kobe's shoulders.
Speaker 4: He's just gonna have fun now. Yeah, Yeah, he's gonna
Speaker 4: have fun. Watch gonna just have fun for the rest
Speaker 4: of the season.
Speaker 6: How many air balls he's gonna shoot in Philadelphia because
Speaker 6: he wants to score a lot of points in his
Speaker 6: friendly Eddie.
Speaker 3: It's like when you give your notice to a job
Speaker 3: you hate and you know that it's the end and
Speaker 3: you can just relax and have fun. You want to
Speaker 3: bet on that no more airballs? Yeah, okay, the rest
Speaker 3: of the season. Rest of the season, No more air.

Speaker 1: of years back at Staple Center. It was before the
Speaker 1: game about ten minutes before the game starting. It's kind
Speaker 1: of fat back there, so I was going to get

Speaker 6: you were walking in.
Speaker 1: No, No, that was Beckham, Me and David Beckham. We
Speaker 1: had a bathroom experience. He went in there with bodyguards,
Speaker 1: Me and Beckham. Now I see all the celebrities out
Speaker 1: there hang with these people.
Speaker 6: I don't think it's I don't think hanging with them
Speaker 6: is really the proper term. You're in the same building
Speaker 6: as they are, but you're not hanging.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 1: I sat at the same table with Billy Crystal one time.
Speaker 1: We had a good time, great, a lot of fun.

Speaker 1: Now, me and me and Beckham, we passed in the hallway.
Speaker 6: He went in.
Speaker 1: We has two bodyguards. With two bodyguards, when you're when
Speaker 1: you're the sexiest man in the world, you got to
Speaker 1: have people protecting you. Don't want that splash back when
Speaker 1: you're at the urinal. It's a problem. You could have
Speaker 1: somebody protecting you from the splash back at the UM.
Speaker 1: So he had that going on, and Billy Crystal kind
Speaker 1: of surly, not gonna lie, you know, not the most
Speaker 1: friendly person. But he sat down there and well, there's
