Speaker 1: Kubbooms.
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 soul 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: In the air everywhere and a happy Sunday. It's our
Speaker 1: football Sunday, National football and baseball playoff action continuing today
Speaker 1: The Fifth Hour with me Ben Maller and Danny g
Speaker 1: Radio as we're here for you every day. We both
Speaker 1: have regular radio games during the week and then we
Speaker 1: come in here on the weekend and just keep talking
Speaker 1: and talking and talking.
Speaker 3: This is the pre game to the pre game.
Speaker 1: Well, actually this is a companion today because I'm looking
Speaker 1: here the Jets.
Speaker 4: Well you're right, there's a game on right now, the
Speaker 4: Jets and the Vikings. Uh London, Oh what am I doing?
Speaker 4: I'm going to sign off right now. I'm gonna go
Speaker 4: watch football.
Speaker 1: Why why are we been here? The great thing about
Speaker 1: watching these games in London is you see it's like
Speaker 1: a fan fest. There's people that show up, but it's not.
Speaker 1: There are Jets fans and Viking fans, but it appears
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people that are just wearing random
Speaker 1: jerseys from like the Jaguars or who you know, the
Speaker 1: teams that have been there in the past that aren't like,
Speaker 1: it's just weird. It's a weird vibe there. It's not
Speaker 1: your normal obviously it's not. It's in London, but just
Speaker 1: the crowd yet and it's I know in the past.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's still the case. They really
Speaker 1: marketed these London games to the ex pats that live abroad, right,
Speaker 1: a lot of military ex military that are living in
Speaker 1: Europe and they're trying to get them to come to
Speaker 1: the games. But yeah, so that's that's Sam Darnold Revenge game.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we know somebody in attendance right now, is that right?
Speaker 1: We do?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Our boss Scott is a huge Vikings fan.
Speaker 1: Oh.
Speaker 4: He told me and Covino and Rich that he made
Speaker 4: a really good strategic plan a few months back. Him
Speaker 4: and somebody's got tickets for this game in advance. And
Speaker 4: he said, even though everybody was you know, predicting the
Speaker 4: Vikings were going to have a really tough season and
Speaker 4: that they were rebuilding, he decided to go ahead and
Speaker 4: schedule the trip. Now, how excited is he with the
Speaker 4: early success of the Vikings.
Speaker 1: Yeah, one of two undefeated him. So you're saying I
Speaker 1: should maybe text him right now and say, hey, Scott,
Speaker 1: I got something really important. You got to call me
Speaker 1: back right now.
Speaker 4: Yes, make sure make sure that you both email and
Speaker 4: text asap.
Speaker 3: Work emergency.
Speaker 1: Yeah, very important. So we're obviously not gonna watch much
Speaker 1: of that game because of you. We'll go do whatever.
Speaker 3: But this is the pre game to all the other games.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I handicapped all these games with the TV
Speaker 1: show that the games that I circled, not that I'm
Speaker 1: not going to try to watch a little bit of
Speaker 1: every game, but the ones in the early window, this
Speaker 1: one PM window that I that have my interest are Ravens, Bengals,
Speaker 1: Bill's Texans, Commander's Browns. Also, those are like the three
Speaker 1: that I really want to focus in on see if
Speaker 1: Jad and Daniels can do it again against they dinged
Speaker 1: up Browns defense, who you just saw last week all
Speaker 1: their injuries, and the Bills. This is an early point
Speaker 1: of demarcation game. They got absolutely roasted by the Ravens,
Speaker 1: and they didn't really beat anybody good, even though they
Speaker 1: were three and ozero to begin the year. You know,
Speaker 1: like the Dolphin. They beat the Dolphins, that was their
Speaker 1: big win. But the Dolphins they didn't have you two
Speaker 1: got hurt.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so saying that was kind of a food Gaysey
Speaker 4: three and zero.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And they played the Cardinals, who are not a
Speaker 1: playoff team. They play Jacksonville is not a playoff team,
Speaker 1: so this is more of a test. But the Texans
Speaker 1: haven't been all that impressive. They're also three in one,
Speaker 1: but they've not had the wow factor. So there's that.
Speaker 1: And then at the Bengal raven game, as I said
Speaker 1: on the TV show, which you can still watch if
Speaker 1: you're listening early here on Sunday, Benny versus depending on Peacock,
Speaker 1: as we talked about on the TV show, like this
Speaker 1: is a chance for the Bengals to scratch and claw
Speaker 1: and get back up into the race because they would
Speaker 1: have the same record as the Ravens. I already eliminated
Speaker 1: the Bengals, but if they can win this game get
Speaker 1: to two and three, the Ravens will be two and three,
Speaker 1: and you got a little bit alike. The Steelers lost
Speaker 1: last week, and the Steelers they played a night in
Speaker 1: the Sunday night came with the Cowboys, which will be
Speaker 1: the most watched game and all that. But so those
Speaker 1: are the games early that I'm looking forward to. I
Speaker 1: will not be the Ram game today. I will just
Speaker 1: be watching. I will be watching the Rams defense is
Speaker 1: so bad. I think the Packers are already up fourteen
Speaker 1: to nothing. It starts hours later from now. So there
Speaker 1: is that. But the mail bag. Let's start with the
Speaker 1: mail bag, and that means Ohio.
Speaker 3: Al it's.
Speaker 1: This mail bag, thank you very much, Ohio. These are
Speaker 1: actual letters by actual consumers of the podcast who have
Speaker 1: taken time out of their lives to correspond with us,
Speaker 1: and they send their messages into a special email address
Speaker 1: that we have just for this podcast that we only
Speaker 1: look at or podcast related content, and it is the email.
Speaker 1: I just Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com. Real
Speaker 1: fifth hourgmail dot com. Carl from New Mexico. Okay, I
Speaker 1: guess he's representing the entire state, right, Sady says, Ben
Speaker 1: and Danny enjoy the pod. How come some guys get
Speaker 1: upset when Ben, you're doing the love segment with Lareda
Speaker 1: on the show. Are people really upset or are they
Speaker 1: just pretending? Carl? I don't know. All I know is
Speaker 1: there's a lot of faux outrage on social media. And
Speaker 1: I will normally say I don't know if I said
Speaker 1: it this week, but if you listen, Carl, and you
Speaker 1: listening who's not named Carl, I will normally say, if
Speaker 1: you like this bit, we do it every week at
Speaker 1: this time. If you don't like it, it's only one
Speaker 1: segment of the show once a week. You can't put
Speaker 1: up with one segment of the show once a week,
Speaker 1: like what is wrong with you? But I do get
Speaker 1: a kicked Danny out of the the sporty mob I
Speaker 1: call them, you know, that category of listener, and that's like, well,
Speaker 1: you should not be talking about anything. Although the meet
Speaker 1: and the titles sports. What's wrong with you? Shame on?
Speaker 3: You said?
Speaker 4: I feel like that crowd has shrunk a little bit
Speaker 4: since we've been doing sports talk radio.
Speaker 1: I would like to think that's the case, but I
Speaker 1: still hear from them every now and again. So I
Speaker 1: don't know what to tell you on that one, Carl,
Speaker 1: But thank you for listening to the podcast, appreciate that
Speaker 1: William writes in from parts unknown, and he says, hey,
Speaker 1: Ben and Danny, as a person who has been homeless
Speaker 1: and has been on I think he meant crystal meth here,
Speaker 1: although he said something else. Maybe that's some drug I've
Speaker 1: never heard of. In and out of jail, never prison.
Speaker 1: I've lived through a lot and faced a lot of
Speaker 1: consequences for my actions through life. Have a job on
Speaker 1: my own place. Not good for you, William, good job.
Speaker 1: You were a big part of this journey, at least
Speaker 1: since Genie in Medford was alive, because that's when I
Speaker 1: found you. I'm a doctor. See Genie was a doctor, William.
Speaker 1: I have a satin nightgown on. Yeah, and she had
Speaker 1: her satin nightgown on. So thank you, he says, for
Speaker 1: showing up and showing out day in and day out.
Speaker 1: First off, get to the question, please, yes exactly, William,
Speaker 1: you dow listen. You know you know my shtick, he says. Okay,
Speaker 1: how do you know where the line is between helping,
Speaker 1: enabling or getting out of the situation? Yeah, well, I
Speaker 1: don't know, William. Every situation is unique. I mean, I've
Speaker 1: tried to help friends of mine that have have issues.
Speaker 1: But normally, what I've experienced is if you force too much, Danny,
Speaker 1: they push back and it's not going to work. It's
Speaker 1: like there's that sweet spot where you can maybe get
Speaker 1: them at the right time when they're a little sober
Speaker 1: and they're willing to listen. But it's and it's difficult.
Speaker 1: I've had friends that have lost relationships with friends or
Speaker 1: relatives because of substance abuse and trying to get them sober,
Speaker 1: trying to do an intervention and it doesn't work out. So, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think you're handing money to somebody, and that's always
Speaker 1: to me, that's something you help them out. But once
Speaker 1: you start handing money to them and then if they're
Speaker 1: not showing progress, like what are you doing, you're enabling
Speaker 1: them At that point.
Speaker 4: That was my mom's thing because we had a couple
Speaker 4: of family members going through it when I was a kid,
Speaker 4: and I remember her saying, I will help with shelter,
Speaker 4: I will help with food, but I will not give
Speaker 4: them cash.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because not cash will disappear, disappear. But William, congratulations
Speaker 1: on turning your life around. That's awesome, and of course,
Speaker 1: as they say, William, but If you don't turn your
Speaker 1: life around, you don't have a life. That's it, right,
Speaker 1: I mean you're in that game with all those drugs
Speaker 1: and stuff, and there's really only one path otherwise it's
Speaker 1: game over. Rich in New Jersey rights in. I don't
Speaker 1: know if that's northern or southern New Jersey. He says, Ben.
Speaker 1: Did you feel the smile in Marcel's body when you
Speaker 1: called him the voice of Brooklyn or was that just me?
Speaker 1: I don't know that I felt it, but it did
Speaker 1: seem like Marcel was very happy.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I randomly just tossed out voice of Brooklyn and Marcel beamed.
Speaker 1: You just lit up. You tell he was very happy
Speaker 1: with that.
Speaker 4: And yeah, that's now on his dating profile. Yeah, he's
Speaker 4: picking up the ladies with that. I'm sure there is
Speaker 4: Marcel the Voice of Brooklyn. Yes, yes, Voice of Brooklyn.
Speaker 1: I'll always remember the first call from Marcel when he
Speaker 1: wanted to talk about this Seattle Seahawks and Russell Wilson,
Speaker 1: and I said, why you're in Brooklyn, why do you
Speaker 1: want to talk about this? I am a Seahawks ambassador.
Speaker 1: Okay that I appreciate that. Have another Ken writes in
Speaker 1: all did not say his location. Bad job you guys,
Speaker 1: if you're going to send an email, does say where
Speaker 1: you are so I can say that anyway. He says,
Speaker 1: I think we need more of the voice of Brooklyn.
Speaker 1: Are here we going in where he creeds old news
Speaker 1: events or just more of him?
Speaker 3: Please?
Speaker 1: No? Yeah, well we don't. We don't ban When Marcel calls,
Speaker 1: he gets on the air. He usually calls the last hour,
Speaker 1: typically Monday, Wednesday, sometimes on Friday, and that's that. So
Speaker 1: we put him on. Yeah. And the funniest thing we've
Speaker 1: talked about that before is the funny thing Marcel did
Speaker 1: was when he broke the Titanic story on the air
Speaker 1: that the Titanic had hit an Iceberg and nobody else radio.
Speaker 3: That was great. I was there for that.
Speaker 1: You were using Morse code. Yeah, And even then Marcel
Speaker 1: he delivered it with such gusto. But part of him
Speaker 1: was like, this might not be true, but he still
Speaker 1: delivered it with a lot of gusto.
Speaker 4: You know, when he did that, I was actually on
Speaker 4: my drive in to do the Clay Travis Show, and
Speaker 4: I heard that live on the air during my drive
Speaker 4: on the freeway and was laughing so hard behind the wheel.
Speaker 4: It was outstanding, outstanding, felt like me and I could
Speaker 4: have had like a news station on or some No.
Speaker 4: I just keep Fox Sports Radio on while I drive
Speaker 4: and I even get breaking world news stories.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, next one on the mail bag. These are
Speaker 1: actual letters by actual listeners. Pink writes in says, guy, guys,
Speaker 1: I know you like Costco. Have you tried the new
Speaker 1: meatball marinera at Costco? So this is apparently one of
Speaker 1: those ready to make you know how you can buy
Speaker 1: like the chicken, the rotisserie chicken.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's in that that I have not so they.
Speaker 3: Just give you a bag of pre made meatballs and sauce.
Speaker 1: No, he said, he said, it appears it's got the bread.
Speaker 1: There's cheese wrapped around the meatballs that are pre made
Speaker 1: with little cheese on top of that. So I guess
Speaker 1: you put this thing in the oven.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, got it.
Speaker 1: Bake. It's at his store. It's five nine beef and
Speaker 1: pork meatball. It's got ground pork, ground beef marinera, parmesan cheese.
Speaker 1: I mean it looks good. I guess it just depends
Speaker 1: how you cook it, right, like any of those things,
Speaker 1: It's like you might come out pretty. It looks pretty
Speaker 1: big too. Anyway, I'm not said, but if you have it,
Speaker 1: let me know, let us no send us an email,
Speaker 1: let us know. I assume you had it, but you
Speaker 1: didn't say you had it in this email. I guess
Speaker 1: you just wanted to have us say your name on
Speaker 1: the ear bury in South Carolina rights in and says yo, Yo, Ma,
Speaker 1: Benny and Danny. What natural disaster hurricane, tsunami, earthquake, tornado, wildfire, flash, flood,
Speaker 1: ETCA scares you the most? So I'll go first. I've
Speaker 1: lived through earthquakes, I've lived through wildfires. I gotta go tsunami.
Speaker 1: Watching that video from the Big tsunami, I think it
Speaker 1: was in Japan a couple of years back, many years now.
Speaker 1: That is just you're done.
Speaker 4: I would have to agree with you because I lived
Speaker 4: twelve miles away from Malibu, Malibu small mountain range and
Speaker 4: the mountains aren't even that tall, and that's what's separating
Speaker 4: where I live, next to the one on one Freeway
Speaker 4: and Malibu. If there was a tsunami, there'd be nowhere
Speaker 4: for me to go. I would just have have to
Speaker 4: hold my nose and put my scuba fens on.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's done.
Speaker 1: You see the veracity of the tsunami and everything is
Speaker 1: just done. It's just wild. I've not been in a hurricane,
Speaker 1: so but at least you can prepare for that, so
Speaker 1: you know tornadoes. I've not been in North flash flood.
Speaker 1: But soon out of that, Barry, it was very nice.
Speaker 1: I met Barry at the Charleston meet and read he
Speaker 1: remember used to be in Nashville back in the day.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I'd go tsunami. Next up is Mike from
Speaker 1: the Tranquilt Lounge in Fullerton. He says, hey, Ben and
Speaker 1: Danny G. I was going to reapologize to Danny G
Speaker 1: after his raiders took down the creepy quarterback led Browns,
Speaker 1: but then DeVante Adams demanded a trade out of there.
Speaker 1: I think your guy, Antonio Pearce is screwed for sure.
Speaker 1: Now what's your guys go to drink when you need
Speaker 1: a caffeine fix? Tea, coffee, energy drinks, or soda pop?
Speaker 1: So I don't drink coffee. I don't really drink tea
Speaker 1: unless I have a voice issue. I don't really do
Speaker 1: energy drinks, So I take you a caffeine supplement is
Speaker 1: what I do. Sometimes my wife on the weekend, she'll
Speaker 1: go to Starbucks and spend you know, eight dollars for
Speaker 1: a drink that she costs about a dollar fifty or
Speaker 1: two dollars, And then I'll get dragged into that. We'll
Speaker 1: all like, She'll buy me like one of those powered
Speaker 1: tea things. I don't even know what they are, but
Speaker 1: the a gavi something something, lemonade something, and I don't
Speaker 1: even know what. It tastes good because then put a
Speaker 1: lot of sugar in it, and they put caffeine in it.
Speaker 1: But Danny, what do you go to on that?
Speaker 3: You know?
Speaker 4: I usually go into the restroom and I power slap myself.
Speaker 1: That's good. Yeah, I recommend that doctors recommended have started
Speaker 1: on the right side. Which side is it?
Speaker 4: Yeah, you gotta do. You got to do both sides
Speaker 4: to really wake up. You know, I'm not I'm not
Speaker 4: a regular coffee drinker, so coffee still works. And what
Speaker 4: I mean is the crackheads you see in line every
Speaker 4: day at Starbucks, they are crackheads and the coffee just
Speaker 4: doesn't have the same effect on their body, so they
Speaker 4: need more and more of it. I take days off
Speaker 4: with coffee. So with that, when I actually drink it,
Speaker 4: It'll wake my butt up. So like that trip to
Speaker 4: Vegas last weekend, I definitely was drinking coffee along the
Speaker 4: route so that i'd be alert at the wheel. So, yeah,
Speaker 4: coffee would be my go to. But I do the
Speaker 4: sugar free coffee.
Speaker 1: Just black coffee. That's it. This is just the no I'd.
Speaker 3: Do, like a sugar free vanilla latte. Gotcha?
Speaker 1: Thank you, Mike, the member of the Chamber of Commerce
Speaker 1: of Fullerton alf from the Blue tent rites In says Ben.
Speaker 1: Since you're not one to wear shoes off, and this
Speaker 1: question is probably better suited for Danny g have you
Speaker 1: ever gotten a sliver, slash, splinter in your shoe or
Speaker 1: your sock? As someone who stands all day at work
Speaker 1: and is constantly moving wooden palletts, It's something that happened
Speaker 1: to me more than a handful of times. Does it
Speaker 1: happened to you, Danny? I've gotten splinters too, But is it?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Is that the old Muhammad Ali quote? But I'll let
Speaker 1: you let you yap.
Speaker 4: You ever had a metallic sliver, like a little piece
Speaker 4: of metal that sucks? I've had that before when I
Speaker 4: was a kid during a summer break. I worked part
Speaker 4: time at an auto parts warehouse. So I worked part
Speaker 4: time for a radio station, and then I worked part
Speaker 4: time for the auto parts warehouse. And let me tell you,
Speaker 4: when I was at the auto parts warehouse, I'd be
Speaker 4: daydreaming about my radio station job the whole time because
Speaker 4: that was some heavy lifting man. And yeah, there would
Speaker 4: be days where I would get you something in my
Speaker 4: foot like that, and it was not fun. It's weird too,
Speaker 4: because something so small, it's kind of like a paper cut.
Speaker 4: How can something so small cause so much pain?
Speaker 1: Yeah, totally. And here I found the quote. This is
Speaker 1: one of the great Muhammad Ali quotes from his time.
Speaker 1: He said, it isn't the mountains ahead to climb that
Speaker 1: wear you out, it's the pebble in your shoe. And sure,
Speaker 1: if you don't have a pebble in your shoe and
Speaker 1: you're climbing the mountain and you're training for a fight,
Speaker 1: you're okay, right, You're probably fine. But if you have
Speaker 1: a little crappy pebble too, and then that will cause
Speaker 1: all kinds of agony. It's like the line of these
Speaker 1: little things are grain of mustard seed is capable of
Speaker 1: developing into a very tall thing. Of mustard. But from
Speaker 1: the pain standpoint, the little, just a little thing gets stuck.
Speaker 1: And that's one of the reasons I don't like to
Speaker 1: wear shoes out because I don't have to worry about
Speaker 1: that as much. With my sandals, I don't to worry about.
Speaker 1: I'm in good shape.
Speaker 3: On that Ben and his Bram's crocs.
Speaker 1: How dare you Let's see who's next Cincinnati Tommy Wright
Speaker 1: Sam on the mail bag. He says, Hey, Benny and Danny,
Speaker 1: g greetings from Pete Rose.
Speaker 3: Way.
Speaker 1: Yea Pete checking out this week our ip big radio guy,
Speaker 1: Pete Rose worked with the late Joe McDonald and also
Speaker 1: our guy JT. The Brick. They did the Pete Rose
Speaker 1: Radio Show, and I've talked about the fact this week
Speaker 1: we did memorial to Pete and right across the street
Speaker 1: when Fox Sports Radio started, there was an Italian restaurant
Speaker 1: that was pretty famous in the valley and that was
Speaker 1: Pete's favorite Italian restaurant. That's he lived in la and
Speaker 1: Pete would be there four or five days a week,
Speaker 1: right across the street every day, same time, having lunch,
Speaker 1: hanging out with a bunch of old baseball players, usually
Speaker 1: old Dodgers, that also lived.
Speaker 3: In a and and mister T who had spot over there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw Mark Patrick, our old morning guy, MPOs,
Speaker 1: Mark Track, Mount Mark Patrick on sports You're in the
Speaker 1: Big Chair. I saw Mark post he's retired now. He
Speaker 1: posted on social media a photo that he took with
Speaker 1: Pete Rose at that Italian restaurant, and Ron Say was
Speaker 1: there with Pete. They were chowing down. And Pete moved
Speaker 1: to Vegas probably two years after Fox Sports Radio started
Speaker 1: just to sign autographs all the time at like I
Speaker 1: don't know Caesar's Palace or whatever and so. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean Pete was quite the quite the character I heard.
Speaker 1: Al Michaels told the story this week. The reason Pete
Speaker 1: kept lying about the gambling is he when he first
Speaker 1: got in some trouble, he I guess he had talked
Speaker 1: to the top lawyer in Cincinnati, and the guy said,
Speaker 1: whatever you do, Pete, never ever admit that you did this.
Speaker 1: Even though you did, never admit it. And Pete, because
Speaker 1: he paid a lot of money for that legal advice,
Speaker 1: he just kept Now you kep going with that. Although
Speaker 1: there was a guy that called up this week that
Speaker 1: used to live in Cincinnati and he worked at a
Speaker 1: Bob Evans and the guy calls up the knight. Pete
Speaker 1: Rose dies and says, uh, yeah you. Pete came in
Speaker 1: a couple of times he wouldn't pay for the food.
Speaker 1: He said, Hey, I don't pay for food on Pete Rose.
Speaker 1: I don't pay for food here in Cincinnati.
Speaker 4: Man, I'm gonna I'm going to go to my hometown
Speaker 4: of rialto California and give that a try.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just say, don't. I don't pay dude.
Speaker 4: Don't you know who I'm not. I work with the
Speaker 4: great Ben Mallor. I don't pay for food.
Speaker 1: What are you talking about next? Let's see who do
Speaker 1: we have? Well, Tommy, I guess I didn't even read
Speaker 1: the rest of the email, He says, curious about the
Speaker 1: introduction to your wives, parents, any remarkable memories. Also, please
Speaker 1: extend my apologies to the Raina for my last regarding
Speaker 1: her hiring without sports knowledge. She's still clueless but kind
Speaker 1: of grows on you. Very nice, Tommy. That's a backhanded compliment.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I've told the surfer for But I was
Speaker 1: like freaking out. My mom was like the most important thing.
Speaker 1: I was very nervous to have my my now wife
Speaker 1: meet my mom, and so I was. I was like
Speaker 1: growing up, I had stomach pain. It was like a
Speaker 1: big deal. My mom didn't approve. I had to get
Speaker 1: rid of you know, I had a dumper, you know, mom.
Speaker 1: Mom's approval meant everything, and so did that. As far
Speaker 1: as like meeting her parents, it was pretty pretty chill,
Speaker 1: pretty mellows casual. I didn't really get all that worked up,
Speaker 1: and she didn't seem to care either.
Speaker 3: So what about you, Danny, Yeah, it went smooth.
Speaker 4: You know, they always say to talk sports with your
Speaker 4: father in law. That's the one easy topic that you
Speaker 4: could hobnob. Unfortunately, I meet my better half's dad and
Speaker 4: he's just like a surfer dude. He still surfs and
Speaker 4: he doesn't watch sports though.
Speaker 3: He's like, what game?
Speaker 4: Even when we were talking about the super Bowl back
Speaker 4: in February, he's like, when's the super Bowl? Clueless when
Speaker 4: it comes to the sports we are so passionate about.
Speaker 4: But if it's anything with outdoors, like camping, he's an
Speaker 4: outdoorsy guy. Go oh, am I going to talk with
Speaker 4: this guy about I don't know shit about camping. But
Speaker 4: other than that, I mean, he's a nice guy. So
Speaker 4: it wasn't that hard. If the problem is if somebody's
Speaker 4: an asshole, you know, then you have a big problem
Speaker 4: where you could tell they don't like you, then you're
Speaker 4: in for it.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I remember my my grand my mom's dad from the
Speaker 1: Old Country. I feel bad for my brother. He died
Speaker 1: before I got married. But my brother had to introduce
Speaker 1: his now wife to my my grandfather, and I heard
Speaker 1: stories that it did not go so well. That he
Speaker 1: was from the old Country. He asked a bunch of
Speaker 1: questions and he didn't necessarily like some of the answers
Speaker 1: that he heard. So it's I think people today are
Speaker 1: more generally more mellow, unless you.
Speaker 4: Just yeah, I think back in the day it was
Speaker 4: more of like an interview process.
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. For sure Steve from Oregon Rights and
Speaker 1: he says, hey, Will Smith. This week there was a
Speaker 1: report he unleashed a fart on the Men in Black
Speaker 1: set that shut down filming for three hours. Do you
Speaker 1: have a relatable story, guys, says Steve in Oregon. I
Speaker 1: saw that headline. I didn't read the story. Why wouldn't
Speaker 1: it have shut down the set for three hours? Did
Speaker 1: he have to did you have to change his diaper?
Speaker 3: Was it was it a COVID fart.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like it makes no sense that maybe they just
Speaker 1: decided to go to lunch or something like that. Sounds
Speaker 1: like he already ate lunch. But yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know what to tell you. It's very bizarre.
Speaker 1: So but it's our story. I don't I mean, I
Speaker 1: eat a lot of garlic during the week, and sometimes
Speaker 1: I'll have I will have issues, but I'm in a
Speaker 1: room by myself at the studio, so I don't usually
Speaker 1: have to worry about that, and it's not too bad.
Speaker 4: Has anybody ever walked into your studio with bad timing though,
Speaker 4: where you're like, oh, that wasn't the time I wanted
Speaker 4: somebody to walk in.
Speaker 1: There have been times in the transition, like at the
Speaker 1: end of the show, I might, you know, let let
Speaker 1: one rip there and then not not realizing, well, I
Speaker 1: got to leave the studio in like five minutes, and
Speaker 1: then the other show will come in.
Speaker 4: And yeah, if you've not been in our studio some
Speaker 4: of our few of our listeners have been.
Speaker 3: But they sealed. The doors have the seal around them, so.
Speaker 1: They're bank doors.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, so you're sealed into these little rooms.
Speaker 1: And you have to wait for the air conditioning to work.
Speaker 1: But then there's also the problem occasionally the skunks get
Speaker 1: in the air conditioning and then it just stays there.
Speaker 4: And it's just that should always be your go to
Speaker 4: in your studio, Ben, if there's ever bad timing, just
Speaker 4: be like, man, those skunks they're up there in the
Speaker 4: ceiling again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it must be the skunks. That's gotta be. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 1: as always seems to that. But we did not have
Speaker 1: time to get to pop Goo's the culture, but there
Speaker 1: were some good stories there.
Speaker 3: Give us one of the stories.
Speaker 1: I'll give you a couple. Do you see the scientists
Speaker 1: claim they figured out why have you ever seen those
Speaker 1: videos on the internet of like octopus punching fish? Very bizarre, right,
Speaker 1: why would the octopus do that?
Speaker 3: I've seen that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And so the scientists claim this would be when's
Speaker 1: animal Thundernome coming. By the way, do we know when
Speaker 1: that's coming?
Speaker 3: Twenty twenty seven?
Speaker 1: Your son will be forty old anyway.
Speaker 3: Soha, we'll be doing the mixing on the project.
Speaker 1: Yes, he doesn't know that yet, but sure they determined that.
Speaker 1: And if you haven't seen this, when the fish are
Speaker 1: getting out of line, they're trying to eat more food
Speaker 1: than they're supposed to eat. The octopus is like the guardian,
Speaker 1: like the bully of the ocean for the fish. And
Speaker 1: if the fish overstep what they're supposed to eat, the octopus,
Speaker 1: the leader octopus, according to the researchers, will tap or
Speaker 1: punch the fish to get them to stop eating. But
Speaker 1: this is always weird to me because I've never really
Speaker 1: seen a fat fish. I've gone snorkeling a bunch in
Speaker 1: Hawaii and in Catalina here in California coast, and they
Speaker 1: all seem to weigh exactly the same. They're all none
Speaker 1: are bigger than the other. It's fascinating to me that
Speaker 1: they all eat they know exactly. I always thought they
Speaker 1: knew exactly how much to eat. But according to this,
Speaker 1: some of the fish are are heifer's and just absolute pigs.
Speaker 1: They're all he's fish and the octopus has to keep
Speaker 1: them in shape.
Speaker 4: And how is that possible? Because swimming, as you know,
Speaker 4: you're exhausted after a good swim, it's a full body workout.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can eat.
Speaker 1: Whatever you want. Speaking of animals, that did you see
Speaker 1: the guy said he's ruined after cloning a giant hybrid sheep.
Speaker 1: He used testicles. He did this so people could hunt
Speaker 1: the giant sheep and Montana Montana Mountain King is the
Speaker 1: nickname the guy. He was sentenced to jail. Guys eighty
Speaker 1: one years old. Imagine that you're in your eighties. This
Speaker 1: dude eighty one years old, he's facing the music. He
Speaker 1: illegally used sheep tissue and testicles to breed hybrid sheep
Speaker 1: for trophy hunting in Texas and Minnesota. Arthur Jack of Montana.
Speaker 1: Are they called Jack? I guess Jack is Arthur, but
Speaker 1: he goes by the name Jack. He's facing five years
Speaker 1: in jail and a fine of up to two hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty thousand dollars, But it looks like he's going
Speaker 1: to get a year of probation, so I guess he's
Speaker 1: not gonna get too much time. His lawyer claimed the
Speaker 1: cloning caper was wrecked, has wrecked his client's life, reputation,
Speaker 1: and family. But in the memo, the sensing memo, there
Speaker 1: was actually the tip of the hat to this guy
Speaker 1: for pulling off the cloning of the endangered Marco Polo sheep.
Speaker 1: The animal has been seized by Fish and Wildlife services,
Speaker 1: but that's pretty pull that off without I mean, the
Speaker 1: guy must be a scientist, but that's pretty wild.
Speaker 3: That's crazy. So but in the end they're like, can
Speaker 3: he clone some more? Well?
Speaker 1: Yeah, the memo said Jack did something no one else
Speaker 1: could do or ever has done. On a ranch, in
Speaker 1: a barn in Montana, he created Mountain Mountain King m
Speaker 1: m K, an extraordinary animal born of science and from
Speaker 1: a man who, if he could rewrite history, would have
Speaker 1: left the challenge of cloning to a Marco Polo. Only
Speaker 1: to the imagination. Uh wow, And he mentioned in the
Speaker 1: memo Jurassic Park, I wonder I did it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, where's this wooly mammoth We've been hearing about for years?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that story comes out. Well this this week
Speaker 1: we had well, we had a NeSSI has finally been found.
Speaker 1: And Bigfoot? See that the photos from Oklahoma that respot
Speaker 1: I saw that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so there's that.
Speaker 1: I also saw there's a there was a mutant cow
Speaker 1: that was born on a farm in Kentucky with two
Speaker 1: heads one in four hundred million one? Are they still
Speaker 1: gonna kill it? Are they gonna They're gonna they back
Speaker 1: of the old days. They'd take it to the freak
Speaker 1: show on the road.
Speaker 3: Right, pretty sure it's just a double double.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm looking at a photo. It appears they all
Speaker 1: they did kill it, so it does appear the animal
Speaker 1: was dead. So yeah, anyway, all right, we'll get out
Speaker 1: on that Danny's Sunday. I'll be yeah, yeah, all in
Speaker 1: some of these baseball games and then tonight back back again.
Speaker 1: It's just some talk radio overnight.
Speaker 4: Well, the Raiders are in Denver. Yeah, competitive but winnable game.
Speaker 4: And you know, for anybody that is part of the
Speaker 4: Sky is Falling crowd with the DeVante Adams stuff. Well,
Speaker 4: the Raiders offense looked pretty good last weekend without them
Speaker 4: because it gave the youngsters a chance. DJ Turner and
Speaker 4: Tucker is a speedster for the Raiders. Your boy, your boy,
Speaker 4: Jacobe Myers. Yeah, behind a better O line. And last
Speaker 4: weekend we talked about out powers Johnson and DJ Glaize
Speaker 4: who got some of the game balls there in the
Speaker 4: locker room because that O line finally opened some holes
Speaker 4: for the running game. And then Jacoby Myers as the
Speaker 4: number one wide receiver had a brilliant game. They actually
Speaker 4: have some talent at the wide receiver position. Davante Adams
Speaker 4: leaving if he does or when he does, is not
Speaker 4: going to exactly be the end of the world.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's going to be thirty two at the
Speaker 1: end of or sometime in November, I think, or December's
Speaker 1: birthday's coming up. So by the time the Raiders are
Speaker 1: are really good, if they ever get really good in
Speaker 1: the near future, Davante is going to be doing a
Speaker 1: podcast somewhere. He's not going to be he's not going
Speaker 1: to be playing in the NFL.
Speaker 3: Yep, yep. How about your Rams.
Speaker 1: Ram it all day, you can ram it all night,
Speaker 1: but you can't apparently tackle if you wear a Rams uniform.
Speaker 1: Those defense I thought they'd be I was mistaken. I
Speaker 1: thought they'd be all right. They drafted some young guys
Speaker 1: their secondary, and they had a couple of injuries in
Speaker 1: the secondary, and the guys that are playing it looks
Speaker 1: like either they they're washed up, there has beens or
Speaker 1: never was, and the guys that they have out there,
Speaker 1: it's just depressing. It's depressing, depressing, depressing, because the offense,
Speaker 1: even with all the injuries, is still good enough where
Speaker 1: they should be a playoff team. But they I mean,
Speaker 1: this is a game this week Packers. That's a game
Speaker 1: that you go either way. It's a three point line.
Speaker 1: You win that game. You got a little bit of
Speaker 1: mojo back. Do I think they're going to win the
Speaker 1: game today? Probably not the way their defense is playing.
Speaker 1: I show how you. I still can't believe they beat
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers. And I was at that game
Speaker 1: and I watched it. I still can't believe it.
Speaker 3: Just ram it.
Speaker 1: Oh, yes, I have a wonderful Sunday. We'll talk to
Speaker 1: you next time.
Speaker 3: Austa Pasta got a murder. I gotta go.
