1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:01,440
Speaker 1: Kabbooms.

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 sol 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 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow, it's the clearinghouse

7
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 2: of hot takes. Break free for something special. The Fifth

8
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 2: Hour with Ben Maller starts right now.

9
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:34,160
Speaker 1: In the air everywhere. The Fifth Hour with Me, Ben

10
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:39,480
Speaker 1: Maller and Danny g Radio in NFL Sunday. It's week

11
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 1: number four, the full week. We had that appetizer the

12
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 1: other night on Thursday. We actually was a good game,

13
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: well relatively speaking for teams. You don't really care about

14
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: the Seahawks and the Cardinals. But we're back at it today.

15
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,519
Speaker 1: Danny Gee with us on the mail bag. He has

16
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: sashayed his way into the Fifth Hour podcast remote studio,

17
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 1: fingam a jig. That that's what we do is from

18
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: early on a Sunday morning, Danny and we have NFL football.

19
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: Very shortly. There's a game in Ireland today that'll be

20
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: kicking off. Yeah, what is up with that? Vikings and Steelers?

21
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 1: Do you see Aaron Rodgers complaining because the Steelers did

22
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: not go to Ireland early in the week and he

23
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: didn't have any to go out.

24
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 3: Insert baby crying effects here.

25
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 4: He said, it looks like a pretty country from the pictures.

26
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that he can afford to go there

27
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 1: on his own time, but I guess he wanted a

28
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: work life balance situation. Is that where he wanted to

29
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 1: go and enjoy the scenery and all that. And these

30
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: guys are such coddle babies, these professional athletes. Did you

31
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: see they were complaining because the Steelers did not fly

32
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 1: first class to Ireland. The Vikings had a first class

33
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: plane and the Steelers didn't have a first class plane.

34
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: And it's, uh, I gotta tell you again, Danny, we're

35
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: around the same age, Like this is one of those things, right,

36
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 1: It's like we were growing up. It's like you wore

37
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: that as a badge of honor, that you did it

38
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,799
Speaker 1: the heart away. Right now it's you go on social

39
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: media and complain because you didn't have a nice enough

40
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,079
Speaker 1: plane to go to Ireland.

41
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 4: Suck it, Steelers, because the immaculate reception actually hit the turf.

42
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,399
Speaker 1: There you go, not that you're still bitter and broken about.

43
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 4: I wasn't around for it, but the video footage that

44
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 4: doesn't exist.

45
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 3: Yes, conspiracies, do do do do do do do do

46
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 3: do do do do do do.

47
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: What's gonna happen? Speaking of conspiracies, I saw this week

48
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: that they're planning on going back to the.

49
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 3: Moon Artemis two.

50
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: Is that a private thing or is that a NASA thing?

51
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: I think it's a NASA thing this time. Okay, all right,

52
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: So there's people that believe this was fake when they

53
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: went the first time. So are they going to say

54
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: this fake?

55
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 3: Also?

56
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: Is it what if it looks a lot different this

57
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: time because they have better cameras now than they did then, right?

58
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 4: People who say that the flag on the Moon wouldn't

59
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,079
Speaker 4: have waved like that.

60
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I heard that, And then I think there was

61
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: an engineer that said the reason was it was like

62
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: that was because of the craft that landed on the

63
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: on the Moon. I forget, I have to go back

64
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: and check, but I heard an explanation why it was

65
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: like that. And then I've also those people that are

66
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: convinced it was filmed actually in southern California where we

67
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: are in the high desert, that they went out and

68
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 1: filmed it in the high desert in that So whatever, Well,

69
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: I'm sure we'll hear much more about that. When is

70
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: that going to happen, like ten years from now or something.

71
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 1: It always takes a long time for these things to happen.

72
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, way before they jumped homeless people off from Palmdale.

73
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: Well they have more if they want to dump more

74
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: people off of Palmdale, there's plenty. Look at it, says

75
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 1: twenty twenty seven. That's not that far away. That's not

76
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: that far away, says a crew should be on the

77
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 1: lunar surface of the Moon in twenty twenty seven, and

78
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: says the land is being developed by space X. It's

79
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 1: not ready. It's not ready, and so okay, not worried

80
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: about that. We have NFL football today. And have you

81
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: given up on your Raiders yet? Danny one and two

82
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: are used to get looking forward to seeing them take

83
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: down the Bears today? Are you fired up for that?

84
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 4: The Chicago defense stinks against the run, and the Raiders

85
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 4: o line has been atrocious, as we mentioned last weekend

86
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 4: on the pod. Hopefully gent doesn't get hit behind the

87
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 4: line of scrimmage every time he touches the ball. Hopefully

88
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 4: Pete Carroll's son and dad stops being so damned stubborn

89
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 4: about how they pieced together that line.

90
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: That would be good. You have the highest paid offensive

91
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: coordinator in the NFL, Chip Kelly, you might want to

92
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 1: improve the offense and even the numbers of the Raiders

93
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: who put up on offense. At that game in Washington

94
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 1: that was there was some major garbage time stat stuffing.

95
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 1: Danny g As you you watched that game because Gino

96
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 1: had a couple of touchdowns on the fourth quarter and

97
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: a bunch of yards and he didn't really play all that. Well,

98
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: I'll be at the Ram game today. Rams are playing

99
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: Danny Dimes in the Colts.

100
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 4: Who are you don't say I'm gonna be at the

101
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 4: Rams game later today too?

102
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: Is that right? Look at you? Unbelievable, amazing. Where are

103
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: you're gonna be? Maybe we'll catch up? Who knows?

104
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 4: Our boss did a raffle back on Friday and Iowa

105
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 4: Sam won a pair of the tickets and I want

106
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 4: a pair of the tickets.

107
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 1: Look at that? Unbelievable. Yeah.

108
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 3: So when you're doing your whole media schmooze fest.

109
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 1: Well, if you want, I can bring you a little

110
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 1: gift packet if you want, are you going with your wife?

111
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 1: Who you're going with?

112
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,160
Speaker 4: I got a few hours here to figure that out.

113
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 4: I have a couple of people fighting over the second

114
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 4: ticket I have.

115
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 1: I got you, I got you, all right, Well, that's cool.

116
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: I didn't know they had a raffle. I wasn't invited

117
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 1: to the raffle. I had no idea. Well, you don't

118
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: ever check your work emails. That's true, that is correct.

119
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: I do not check the work email at all. But

120
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 1: I will beat the game today, so I'm looking forward

121
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 1: to to seeing if the Rams can bounce back after

122
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 1: they coughed up a fur a ball against the Eagles.

123
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,359
Speaker 1: What a terrible loss that was. And I'll be watching

124
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: on my laptop. While I'm watching the Ram game, I'll

125
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: be watching the Ravens and the Chiefs, which is the

126
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: big game in the late television window today, and then

127
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 1: tonight I will watch the Packers and the Dallas Cowboys.

128
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 1: So this should be a good day. And so last

129
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,279
Speaker 1: day of the baseball season, last day of the regular

130
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 1: season in baseball. So there's still still some stuff, not much,

131
00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: but still some stuff to be sorted out. Yay, all right,

Speaker 1: fifth hour at gmail dot com. First up on the

141
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:42,559
Speaker 1: mail bag is Alf from Podcasts Gone By Alf Write

142
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: Sin says, first and foremost, why are AirPods so hard

143
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: to hang on to? I agree, I once dropped, Alf

144
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 1: says my AirPods at work under a paper cutter. And

145
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: by papercutter, I don't mean the kind you had in

146
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: grammar school. I mean the kind that weighs thousands of

147
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: pounds and has a forty five inch blade that weighs

148
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: fifty pounds? Does out you think Alf works at it's

149
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: like the office. He works at a paper mill. You

150
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: think he works at a paper company. I don't know anyway.

151
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 3: That's what it sounds like.

152
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it does, it says I like you. Ben was

153
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 1: on my hands and knees fishing around for a loan earbud,

154
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: only to move some machinery and find the missing earbud

155
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: broken due to my movements of set machinery, he says,

156
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: hashtag fun fact. Amazon sells individual buds that pair fine

157
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: with working earbuds. I did not know that.

158
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 3: Did you know that?

159
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: I didn't know that. So if you lose if you

160
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: lose an AirPod, you can get If you lose one,

161
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 1: you can get another one. That's pretty cool. Thank you.

162
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 3: Off.

163
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,559
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to remember that because I inevitably I'm

164
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 1: a klutz. I will absolutely lose them at some point.

165
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,719
Speaker 1: I know it's going to happen. Although this week I

166
00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: am proud of myself, Dany. I went to the gym

167
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 1: a couple time, and I made sure to not open

168
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: the air pods until I got into the gym, and

169
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,439
Speaker 1: then when I got to the car after the gym,

170
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 1: I didn't take them out of my ears until the

171
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: door of the car was closed. Therefore they could not

172
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,320
Speaker 1: fall out of the car and on to the turf

173
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 1: or the not the turf, the asphalt there and be lost.

174
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 3: So good job by you, thank you.

175
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: I appreciate that, and Alf says, secondly, going back to

176
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: Friday's pod, a little known fun fact about yours truly

177
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: is that my grandfather on my mother's side was a

178
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: lumberjack in ken Yet yesterday was lumberjack lumberjack Day, he says.

179
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 1: A unfund fact is that he met his untimely demise

180
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 1: in nineteen fifty two, when my mother was only sixteen

181
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 1: years old, due to a tree that he was cutting

182
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: falling the wrong way. Hashtag be downer. Wow, he says,

183
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: I thought these podcasts were supposed to be fun. At

184
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 1: least the audio quality is top not signed your favorite

185
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: audio snob. Yeah, no, Alf, you have high standards and

186
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 1: that's good. God forbid. Someone listening to a radio show

187
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: wants to actually hear the show. What's wrong with You?

188
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 1: Reggie from Detroit writes, and he says, hey guys, hey Ben,

189
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: what's going on with producer lead A Lap I listened

190
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: to your show and the Joners Show after yours. He's

191
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,839
Speaker 1: been away for a while. Nobody's said anything from Reggie.

192
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 1: I have no idea, right, that's not my show. I

193
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 1: like Lee. I don't know what's going on with that,

194
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: and hopefully he'll be back.

195
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 3: But I was he just on vacation?

196
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: Maybe No, I don't think he was on vacation.

197
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 3: I don't.

198
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:50,319
Speaker 1: I have no idea. Oh, so hopefully he'll be back again.

199
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 3: That's that's not right now and wake him up.

200
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, probably not not a good idea. Next up, we

201
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: have what is this? Jose rights and it says mister

202
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: has a high band and mister g Jose here originally

203
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: from NorCal, now living somewhere in Massachusetts. As a kid

204
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 1: growing up, I was the biggest San Francisco Giants fan.

205
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 1: I never missed the game, even listening to games on

206
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 1: the radio when they were not on TV. Analytics and

207
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,680
Speaker 1: the DH in the National League and interleague play ruined

208
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 1: baseball for me. The pitchers are soft as baby poop.

209
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 1: Oh lola. Now, I can't stand baseball. Jose says it

210
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:40,839
Speaker 1: is boring. He says, like soccer. Do you think you'll

211
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 1: ever give up on the Dodgers. I know that's hard

212
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: for you because of your job, but the Dodgers suck

213
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 1: and are too soft. My daughter Marlene says, hi, she's

214
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: nine and nine says here she's beieve It says she's

215
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: nine and loves the podcast.

216
00:11:58,440 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 3: There you go.

217
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: Well, hello to Marlene, thank you for listening. And Jose,

218
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 1: will I ever give up the Dodgers, though the Dodgers

219
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 1: have kind of given up me though since they got Otani.

220
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: It's not the same. So let's just say I don't

221
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 1: have as much love for the Dodgers as I did

222
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,319
Speaker 1: a few years ago. When they do you dirty, yeah,

223
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,559
Speaker 1: you kind of move away from where you had been.

224
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,200
Speaker 1: But that, you know, everyone's got decisions to make in life,

225
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 1: and what they make, you know, is in a decision

226
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 1: that the Dodger PR staff made their decision. And let's

227
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 1: just say, I'm not as engaged as I had been

228
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 1: in the past.

229
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,680
Speaker 3: You missed that Angels type treatment that you was good.

230
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:38,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, No, It's just it's been eye opening the

231
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 1: last couple of years. That's all I'll say. That's all

232
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: I'll say on that one. He also says, why don't

233
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,719
Speaker 1: you put the meat and greet events on YouTube? We

234
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: love to see more of you guys. That is from

235
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 1: jose and his daughter Marlene. So sure. The only issue

236
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 1: with that is someone would have to record those things

237
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: for YouTube. The YouTube channel is run by Fox Sports

238
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: Radio and the IT department at Fox Sports Radio, and

239
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 1: the company has chosen to not invest in the meet

240
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 1: and greet. So these are things that we do on

241
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,680
Speaker 1: our own. They don't give us any kind of a

242
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 1: budget because it's just our own event, so they'd have

243
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 1: to send somebody out there that would cost them money.

244
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: I'm guessing that will not happen, Jose, but I would

245
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: love for it. I've I've pitched for years that they

246
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 1: spend a little money, get some advertisers, Let's do a

247
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: bunch of meet and Greece. Let's do one every other

248
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 1: month and just go around and promote them in the

249
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 1: whole thing. But they've chosen to go a different direction

250
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: on that, so I don't think that's going to happen.

251
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: Ferg Dog in Fullerton, writes and says evening, gentlemen, Evening.

252
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 3: Says Fergie Ferg. Yeah, it's not the evening for us

253
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 3: right now.

254
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: Good news, guys, I finally completed my Disney autograph book. Well,

255
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: congratulations for a dog. I've got every single mask got

256
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 1: in there. I had to put up with a lot

257
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: of crying kids to get them, especially a few weeks ago,

258
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,440
Speaker 1: but I got them. He said, well, what do you

259
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,199
Speaker 1: think the hardest one to get out of the Disney characters?

260
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:15,719
Speaker 3: Wehl airly Goofy.

261
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 4: That's what he's referring to if you're hear a podcast

262
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 4: or I think three weekends again.

263
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 1: To celebrate the occasion, I'd like to ask what your

264
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: favorite Disney movie was growing up. Take as much time

265
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,720

00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: you know the one I liked that's underrated, it's in

269
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: my head right now is the cartoon version of Robin Hood.

270
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 1: I like that a lot. I thought that was pretty cool.

271
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 1: That was a Disney movie, right, the cartoon one. Remember

272
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: the original Robin Hood?

273
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 3: Oh, the old school Robb the og.

274

00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: a cool.

276
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

277

Speaker 4: My grandmother took us to the drive in to see

278
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 4: that when I was a little kid. Oh man, that's

00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 1: at gmail dot com, Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com.

314
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: Scott says, hey, Ben and Danny, Ben, you joked about

315
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: somebody drinking an Arnold Palmer by the pool the other

316
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 1: day and your Marconi deserving Mallard monologues. If someone were

317
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: to create a Ben Maler and or a Danny g

318
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 1: what would the drink entail? A Scott from Florida would

319
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 1: have some orange juice, of course, maybe a drop of

320
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 1: salt water to ensure the crazy in Florida is represented,

321
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:16,879
Speaker 1: and a squeeze of waffle House syrup for a sweetener

322
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 1: as an ode to the waffle House hurricane index. Finally,

323
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 1: Florida being a vacation destination. I think it's got to

324
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 1: be rum for the alcohol. What are your thoughts? That's

325
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:33,119
Speaker 1: Scott from Florida. So I'd love to have a drink.

326
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,919
Speaker 1: We've got the food dishes in Kansas City and in Denver,

327
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,639
Speaker 1: and I'd love to have the drink. That would be wonderful.

328
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 1: Still want the malard pizza? Would like that malard pizza

329
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: would be good. Mallard cheeseburger double cheeseburger would be solid

330
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: as well. I don't know what jee I mean. I'm

331
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 1: not a huge drinker. I'm guessing it would be a

332
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: It would be a fruit based drink, like a cranberry,

333
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 1: maybe some orange mixed together, and you know, I'm open.

334
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 1: I'm open to it. We could get creative of that

335
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: would be a good idea. Danny go into a bar.

336
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 1: We got a lot of bartenders that listen to the show.

337
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 1: Got a guy into Moine for example, going there and

338
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 1: just like futs around with different combinations and see what

339
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: you like and then boom at your drink.

340
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 3: Why not?

341
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 1: What about you?

342
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 3: You know? I would go prune juice and rum. I'd

343
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 3: call it the prum prune juice.

344
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, because you could get faded and clean out your

345
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 4: system all at the same time.

346
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: The two for one special, the daily double Danny's there,

347
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 1: you go, even health nuts mixed with the party people

348
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 1: and they'd be pushing up to the bar saying, you know,

349
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 1: I want the Danny jeep.

350
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:46,439
Speaker 3: Yeah.

351
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, So you're going away from the original

352
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,479
Speaker 1: Danny g which was was that the Roofies was at

353
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 1: the original No, I'm.

354
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 4: Kidding, I'm from the Garadelli family, not the Pudding Pop family.

355
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 1: Hello, Eric is thank you by the way, Scott from Florida,

356
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: you signed your name. Good job by you. Eric in

357
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 1: Chula Vista, Eric from Just Sunday, I go away, beautiful

358
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 1: Cheula Vista. Do I get Cardiff by the Sea? Can

359
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,680
Speaker 1: I get a Cardiff by the Sea? Get a East County,

360
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,440
Speaker 1: North County? Come on anyway? Eric and Cheula Vista rights

361
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 1: and says, hey, Ben and Danny g I have been

362
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:28,120
Speaker 1: a secret non caller p one for years. Good job

363
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 1: by you, Eric, He says. When the podcast first launched,

364
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: you and Gagon begged us to help goose the numbers

365
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:38,360
Speaker 1: by downloading it on every device and site, grandparents' phones,

366
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: smart toasters, you name it. That's right, and Eric says,

367
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 1: So when I visited my mom, I sneakily subscribed her

368
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: to your podcast. Fast forward five years. She calls me

369
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 1: in a panic, saying her phone is super low on space.

370
00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,040
Speaker 1: Story continues. Eric says, funny thing is since she he

371
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 1: only knows how to make an answer calls and only

372
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 1: knows how to read and not send text messages. I

373
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 1: checked the storage and discovered her phone had become the

374
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 1: Library of Congress for the fifth hour podcast. Every single episode,

375
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: every single episode was still there. It turns out I

376
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: never said it to auto delete, so she was basically

377
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:27,360
Speaker 1: carrying around the Smithsonian of your podcast. That's awesome.

378
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:28,919
Speaker 3: That is hilarious.

379
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,439
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you for that. Eric, that's great. So

380
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 1: it takes about according to this, it takes about five

381
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 1: years to save up every podcast and then eventually you

382
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: have to delete the podcast because you have no more

383
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 1: space on your phone yet. And we still support that. Eric,

384
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought that up because we haven't brought

385
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 1: this issue to the podcast in a while. But when

386
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: I did do it with Gagon, who retired to Florida

387
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: years ago, and I've had a great time with Danny

388
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 1: g But when we we used to beg people, Danny,

389
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: because we figured out that a lot of a lot

390
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 1: of people have older parents and grandparents or whatever and

391
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:12,160
Speaker 1: obviously older and they have their phones and they can

392
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:16,919
Speaker 1: download the podcast, they can subscribe, so we can, as

393
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 1: Eric said, here goose the numbers a little bit by

394
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 1: having kids subscribe their parents to the podcast, and it does.

395
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 3: Work pretty surest law, Wow.

396
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: It's a law. It's podcasting. There are no laws, right,

397
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 1: it's all it's the wild Wild West man, it's podcasting.

398
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 3: Thank you.

399
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 1: I do appreciate your support, Eric, and you are in

400
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: the silent majority, because trust me, if we only went

401
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 1: by the people that participate in these radio shows and podcasts,

402
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 1: we would not have very many people who are participating

403
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,159
Speaker 1: or who are listening. But we have many, many more

404
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 1: people who are just silently listening and ease dropping in

405
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,399
Speaker 1: into whatever we're talking about. So thank you, Eric, andologize

406
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 1: to you mom. I hope she's okay, And just delete

407
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 1: a bunch of them and then don't delete the follow.

408
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 1: Do not delete the follow. Lucky Tony writes in from

409
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 1: the Bay Area. He says, Hey, Ben and Danny g.

413
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 1: those old Why would you go back and hear an

414
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: old podcast? I don't get it.

415
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 4: The reason why, Ben, that's when you had your best

416
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 4: roster on your overnight show.

417
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,120
Speaker 1: Oh there you go, there you go, the old days,

418
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,199

00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 3: Or will it be?

423
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 1: On the podcast? He says, Raiders twenty three, Bears thirteen,

424
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:55,679
Speaker 1: Lock it in your thoughts Bears. So he's lucky to

425
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: he's a Bears fan, but he's picking the Raiders to

426
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 1: beat the Bears today.

427
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 4: About that, you know, a Chicago fan called me on

428
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 4: the studio lines a few days back and told me,

429
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 4: here's what's up with my team. We look good one week,

430
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 4: and we look like crap the next week. So you

431
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 4: get us on a week where we're going to lose,

432
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 4: and I hope he's right.

433
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:15,399
Speaker 3: He knows his team.

434
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: There's been a lot of chatter about the Bears have

435
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: figured everything out because they beat up the Cowboys last week,

436
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:26,919
Speaker 1: and normally the team that is getting a lot of

437
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 1: media shine does not live up to that shine the

438
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:34,360
Speaker 1: following game. So we'll see what happens. Kevin and Kansas

439
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 1: writes in on the mail bag. He says, Dear Ben

440
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 1: and Danny g my sister in law sent some pictures

441
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 1: of the progress of the BUCkies going up in Goodyear, Arizona.

442
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 1: Hell yeah, it looks like it will be June as

443
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: the new opening did.

444
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 3: Oh wow.

445
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: Originally, Danny, this was supposed to be done by Christmas

446
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,199
Speaker 1: of this year, and now here we are. This is

447
00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:03,400
Speaker 1: the last weekend in September and the last Sunday in September,

448
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: and so they've already pushed that back, according to Kevin,

449
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 1: until June of twenty twenty six. Ben, would you consider

450
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 1: doing your show live from BUCkies in Arizona? And Danny

451
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 1: G would you consider providing DJ services for the grand opening?

452
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: Let me see here, is that a paying gig. I'm

453
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,159
Speaker 1: gonna go. I'm gonna speak for Danny G. I'm gonna go.

454
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: Hell yeah, Danny, you would be willing to do that?

455
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 4: Hell yeah yeah if they gave me some big BUCkies money.

456
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 4: But usually those kind of gigs the assistant manager under

457
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 4: the manager says, I got a buddy that'll do the

458
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 4: gig for one hundred bucks.

459
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and that would absolutely. Kevin love to do

460
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: the show from BUCkies. They would have to write a

461
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: check though, to the company. They don't just send me

462
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 1: out to those things unless they're getting some cash and

463
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,159
Speaker 1: all that. It would be fun. I do plan on

464
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 1: going there. I guess you'd have to go in June though.

465
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 1: You don't want to go to Arizona in July, right,

466
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 1: you don't want to go to Arizona July or August.

467
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:06,160
Speaker 3: Even in June.

468
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 4: It's pretty Toasta pretty been there in July it felt

469
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:11,400
Speaker 4: like a furnace.

470
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's brutal, brute taddled for sure. What are you

471
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 1: wearing for the Ram game today, Danny? You're a Raider fan.

472
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: You don't care about the colts of the Rams.

473
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:22,440
Speaker 3: Like what I'm gonna wear Dodger gear?

474
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 1: Okay, all right? A last one, last one on the

475
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: mailbag from Ben H. Ben H writes in says, Hello, Ben,

476
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 1: I have never seen a person hate a player on

477
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 1: his own team like you despise Clayton Kershaw. His playoff

478
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:44,439
Speaker 1: struggles are way overblown. You, of all people, should remember

479
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,719
Speaker 1: the horrid Dodgers offense of the early to made twenty tens.

480
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 1: These terrible offensive performances greatly.

481
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,679
Speaker 4: Effencd Ben, take that, Ben, take it.

482
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,359
Speaker 1: Take it greatly affected his win loss record, which is

483
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: thirteen and thirteen, not under five hundred. Taically said, no

484
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,679
Speaker 1: bad job by you, Ben. What I said is in

485
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,400
Speaker 1: games started by Clayton Kershaw, the Dodgers have a losing record,

486
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 1: and that's the games he got a no decision in.

487
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 1: It's the complete body of his work, playoff games started

488
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,640
Speaker 1: by Clayton Kershaw. If you go to his playoff game log,

489
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,679
Speaker 1: the Dodgers have a losing record when he started in

490
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: the playoffs, they lost more times than they won, says

491
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,879
Speaker 1: the other great pitchers of his generation, Schuerzer and Verlander

492
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,919
Speaker 1: both have postseason in the areas over three. I like

493
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 1: how Ben conveniently leaves off Madison Bumgardner, yet you never

494
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,120
Speaker 1: bring them up as playoff chokers. Even the great Pedro

495
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: Martinez has a postseason in the ara of three point

496
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 1: four to six. Hardly clutch, as you called him in

497
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 1: your tie rade against Kershaw. If Dave Roberts pulled Kershaw

498
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 1: when any other manager would have, instead of leaving him

499
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: in to die, his EI would have been very good

500
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,440
Speaker 1: in the postseason. Since twenty fifteen, he has had two

501
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 1: years worthy of criticism, twenty nineteen and twenty thirteen. One game.

502
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:09,639
Speaker 1: Do better Ben from Ben age? Listen, there's nothing to debate.

503
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 1: I do like the Dodgers. I do not do hero worship.

504
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 1: I just don't. It was the most ridiculous thing the

505
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:20,439
Speaker 1: Dodgers did.

506
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 4: I was embarrassed you did in your thirties, though, Remember

507
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,120
Speaker 4: when you got that Judeo Nomo tattoo on your left

508
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 4: ask cheek.

509
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 1: Trying not to talk about that, Danny, Please, all right,

510
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: I'm going to get that removed. Nobody sees my ass,

511
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 1: but no, but seriously, like listen, I felt sad for

512
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 1: the Dodgers. Embarrassing what the Dodgers did when they dug

513
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: up the rubber at Dodgers Stadium. It was so pathetic.

514
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 1: So so just you tell me to do better, I say,

515
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,920
Speaker 1: the Dodgers need to do better. He's a freaking he's cleaners,

516
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: a great regular season player, Hall of Fame, regular season pitcher,

517
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 1: and the reason the Dodgers do not have two or

518
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 1: three more World Series championships because of his competence. And

519
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 1: you can spin it any way you want, and you know,

520
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 1: knock yourself out. Clayton Kershaw did not elevate his performance

521
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. He didn't remember this was it seven

522
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: nothing Cardinals. Dodgers had a seven nothing lead against the Cardinals.

523
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 1: Remember that that playoff game the Phillies in the early

524
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:21,120
Speaker 1: or late as.

525
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,679
Speaker 4: Man the number one thing I don't like about this

526
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 4: topic or conversation is I buried those bat memories. I

527
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 4: don't want them coming to the front of them.

528
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 1: I understand, but it's just I just it's fair.

529
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 3: Didn't happen. It didn't happen. It didn't happen.

530
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 1: Well, I was at a lot of those games back

531
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 1: in those days, and I witnessed. I saw it, and

532
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: I was the one sing, next time is gonna be okay,

533
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,479
Speaker 1: Kershaw is going to be fine next time? And then

534
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 1: he'd be out there and he'd be in the cockpit

535
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: in the vomit comment, and I mean, like, what is

536
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 1: he doing? He sucks again? I was like, come on,

537
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: it's it was always.

538
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 4: An ex But he would have, let's be honest, he

539
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 4: would have got that one against the Strows if they

540
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 4: weren't cheating. And he did finally shake it off the

541
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 4: last two World series that we got. So, I mean,

542
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 4: you can say that it's not enough redemption, but at

543
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 4: least he's had some redemption.

544
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 1: Not enough to have a state funeral. Okay, much God

545
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: so stupid? Oh he crap? I mean, did they have

546
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: any shame over there? It is so over the top

547
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 1: at Dodger stadium. It's embarrassing. Okay, he's a human being. Stop,

548
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 1: he's not a god. He's not a Demi god. It's

549
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 1: like so stupid, it's so dumb. I said five years

550
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 1: ago he should have retired, And finally he's gonna retire

551
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: and the Dodgers will be fine. They're not gonna miss

552
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw because he's that's it. It's time for him

553
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 1: to go do something else. And he'll still be out

554
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: at all the games anyway. They're gonna they're gonna give

555
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 1: him the Kofax package where they pay him a couple

556
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars a year to come out and take

557
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: photos and kiss babies and shake hands and all that stuff.

558
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 1: So he's not going anywhere. That's it, though, Thank you, Ben.

559
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 1: He doesna say he loves the show, and I appreciate

560
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 1: you listening. Ben. And I've gotten some email Danny from

561
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 1: Dodger fish and they start, I used to like your show,

562
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 1: but you know it's because of the Kershaw thing. They're

563
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 1: so they're so bitter.

564
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 4: In my response, I saw it in the comments. You

565
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 4: had more than one person quit on you.

566
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, and again, as we like to say, Danny,

567
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 1: First of all, if you're going to stop listening to

568
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: a show because you didn't like a take the person had,

569
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 1: then you're not really a fan of the show. You're

570
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 1: a fake fan, okay, because I ideal in a lot

571
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 1: of takes, IM in the industrial concrete.

572
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 3: Now you're pissing off the other half of our list.

573
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 1: No, I'm just a real fan. Does not quit something

574
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 1: because of one take that you don't agree with, that's

575
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 1: a fake fan. And secondly, the Ben Mahler Show is

576
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 1: a radio show. It is not an airport. You do

577
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 1: not have to announce your departure. You don't have to

578
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 1: say that the doors are closed. If you don't want

579
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 1: to listen, do not like.

580
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 3: It's fine.

581
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 1: There are other things you can listen to, bad audio

582
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: somewhere else or whatever. You don't have to listen. But

583
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 1: it's like if I, as I point, I go to

584
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 1: a restaurant and I don't like, I like I used

585
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 1: to go to Canner's Deli in La I used to eat.

586
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 1: I used to live right off near Fairfax there and

587
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 1: used to go there quite a bit, and I haven't

588
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 1: been there in years. I didn't I didn't call Canners

589
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 1: up and say I'm not going there anymore. I just

590
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 1: stop going. That's that's it.

591
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, well there's this thing called Yelp, and there's some

592
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 4: a holes on there that do do what you're describing.

593
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 4: Let's let's just hope this podcast and your Overnight show,

594
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 4: for the most part, are like a really good restaurant

595
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 4: where we keep the client.

596
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 1: Tell yeah, yeah, we want to keep everyone everyone around.

597
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 1: Am I not entitled to have a grudge against Clayton Kershe?

598
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 1: I think I am entitled.

599
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 4: To have a great Oh that's fine. I think the

600
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,240
Speaker 4: one thing I would like on your Overnight show, and

601
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 4: I don't know if it happened. I know Eddie's not

602
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 4: there anymore. I know Coop maybe isn't as involved that

603
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 4: much on the microphone, but in Lorena doesn't know sports

604
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 4: all that much. Oh, this list keeps going.

605
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 1: You want to keep going.

606
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 4: It's going to be somebody there to keep you in line,

607
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 4: to give you some pushback. You know, if I was

608
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 4: still on your Overnight show, I would have been pushing

609
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 4: back and we would have argued a little bit.

610
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 1: There's nothing to push back on. I've reached.

611
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 3: There's so much to push back on.

612
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: Your takes every night is a Mallard masterpiece. There's no

613
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 1: need to push it is. You know what I have done, Danny,

614
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 1: I've reached the Goldilock zone. I have reached the Goldilock zone.

615
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 1: That is where I am right now. All right, Well,

616
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: put the baby to bed. Maybe i'll see you today

617
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 1: at the Ram game, Danny, let me know where you're

618
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 1: gonna be. Send Simon.

619
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you're gonna see me with a big plate

620
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,240
