A glorious Sunday, and the fifth ur podcast 0:00:52.320 --> 0:00:55.880 here Danny As we had football on Thursday, we had 0:00:55.920 --> 0:01:01.280 the Dolphin Jet game. On Friday, that Black Friday game, 0:01:01.400 --> 0:01:04.360 and then on Saturday we had college football and now 0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:06.920 today more NFL football. So we got a little football 0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:08.559 and they've got a game tomorrow, so there's a little 0:01:08.560 --> 0:01:09.520 football like every day. 0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:12.720 If Mark Davis had any brains, he'd be on the 0:01:12.720 --> 0:01:15.919 phone with the league office and try to take ownership 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:18.840 of the Black Friday game. It should be the Silver 0:01:18.959 --> 0:01:19.880 and Black Friday. 0:01:20.080 --> 0:01:21.360 Oh, that's a great idea. 0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:24.400 I like that. It's a good idea here. Every year 0:01:24.440 --> 0:01:27.280 he should do that hosting in Vegas. That would be 0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:30.960 a great Turkey after Turkey holiday. 0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:33.600 You're missing your calling, Dan. He should be on Madison 0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:37.160 Avenue working in marketing. You could do branding and marketing 0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:38.480 and that's that's great. 0:01:39.480 --> 0:01:41.679 And my favorite team, the Raiders. They won your bet 0:01:41.760 --> 0:01:42.800 for you last weekend. 0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:45.960 I did. I appreciate that very much. I think the 0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:50.920 Raiders who are playing their number one and I gave 0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:53.240 this stat on the TV show this weekend. The Raiders 0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:56.080 are the number one scoring defense in the NFL since 0:01:56.120 --> 0:01:58.920 Antonio Pierce took over. Of course, it does help that 0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:00.919 they played the Jets and the Giants in that stretch, 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:03.240 but the Dolphins are legit and they kept the Dolphins 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:06.520 from scoring too many points. The reason the Raires lost 0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:09.200 that game was not because of the fact that they 0:02:09.240 --> 0:02:14.080 were having problems defensively keeping the Dolphins from scoring, because 0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:16.080 they only scored twenty points or whatever it was in 0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:17.680 that game, well on very many points. 0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:20.000 So it was because they were too conservative there right 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:23.080 before halftime, taking the field goal even though they had 0:02:23.120 --> 0:02:25.560 time to go into the end zone, and then at 0:02:25.560 --> 0:02:28.520 the end of the game. They had those scoring opportunities 0:02:28.560 --> 0:02:31.440 where they decided to not be conservative and go for 0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:34.440 it on fourth downs. Had they taken those field goals 0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:36.600 at the end of the game, they could have won 0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:38.720 on a field goal in that final drive. 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:41.720 Unfortunately did not work out that way, but they did 0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:45.280 win the bet, which I'm happy about and so good 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:48.840 for me. Let's see what happens this weekend and all 0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:50.480 that is Patrick Mahoney. 0:02:51.040 --> 0:02:53.600 I hear he's coming in angry because he's awful loss. 0:02:54.320 --> 0:02:58.440 Angry Mahomes, Angry Mahomes. We still got those crappy wide receivers. 0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:03.000 See what plays out this week. On this podcast, we 0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:08.160 have Pop Goes the Culture and the mail Bag. The 0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:10.840 mail Bag, We'll start with Pop Goes the Culture. Well, 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:13.799 here's something that everyone needs in their lives. Danny coming 0:03:13.800 --> 0:03:19.280 in January to Seattle Sonic Symphony, a live Sonic the 0:03:19.360 --> 0:03:22.919 Hedgehog music show. I didn't know this was a thing. 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:25.600 Is this a thing? I guess it is. I guess 0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:28.119 it has been a thing. It began its run back 0:03:28.160 --> 0:03:32.519 in September. I had not heard about this. Live shows 0:03:32.639 --> 0:03:39.960 in London. Also, Paris came through La Boston, Chicago, and 0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:45.440 it's heading towards Sonic the Hedgehog, heading towards Seattle. They 0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:47.280 have a show. This is how I learned about it. 0:03:47.720 --> 0:03:52.800 They're celebrating the thirtieth anniversary. Thirtieth anniversary, which actually was 0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:54.760 back in twenty twenty one, but since everything, I guess 0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:57.480 was shut down with the COVID stuff still, then here 0:03:57.480 --> 0:04:02.080 we are. They're having a big, big party, big fun. 0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:05.560 So that's sign me up for that. I think I'm 0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:08.880 good on that. Have you ever watched squid games? Any 0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:12.720 squid games? You into that at all? Yeah, lawyers are 0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:16.680 getting involved now in squid games, the squid Games, the Challenge. 0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:23.280 The players want compensation because they're getting injured and they 0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:26.200 would like to be paid. They would like to be paid, 0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:29.159 or their lawyers would like to be paid. It says 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:34.240 contestants of Squid Games, the Netflix TV show that the 0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:38.480 Challenge are seeking compensation for injuries they allegedly suffered on 0:04:38.560 --> 0:04:42.479 the show. So they've lawyered up, and it's very hard 0:04:42.520 --> 0:04:46.320 to find an ambulance chasing lawyer and players competed in 0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:48.560 the the Oh. 0:04:48.600 --> 0:04:50.200 I just looked it up. I thought you were talking 0:04:50.200 --> 0:04:54.040 about the original movie that was really popular. I thought 0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:56.000 this is squid Games. 0:04:56.040 --> 0:05:00.680 The challenge, yeah, the Netflix thing? Yeah into that at 0:05:00.680 --> 0:05:01.240 all or nothing? 0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:02.839 Haven't seen the challenge? 0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:06.920 All right? Well I have not either. It's done very well. 0:05:08.520 --> 0:05:10.680 But now it's done so well that the lawyers are 0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:13.000 involved in like, hey, we would like we would like 0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:15.520 some money, and we would like to be paid. We 0:05:15.560 --> 0:05:18.280 would like a nice compensation because our persons, our people 0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:20.680 are getting hurt and there's a ton of money. The 0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:23.520 Netflix thing, like, you don't know for sure how many 0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:26.960 people are actually watching any of these streaming shows because 0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:30.960 there's no way to really track it. Like it's like television, 0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:32.440 like a show that I'm doing on cable, you can 0:05:32.480 --> 0:05:34.560 keep track how many people are watching stuff like that, 0:05:34.600 --> 0:05:38.960 But on on Netflix or Amazon Prime or those type 0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:41.359 of things that you don't really know how many people 0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:43.599 are watching it. But Netflix is worth a ton of money. 0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:46.800 So the lawyers are like, hey, we would like to 0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:49.880 get a piece of the action. So remember that show 0:05:49.920 --> 0:05:52.279 that Joe Rogan hosted. What was that show called Back 0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:55.279 in the Day on NBC where they did crazy challenges? 0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:56.600 Fear Factor? 0:05:56.800 --> 0:05:59.360 Yeah, fear Factor. They got sued too. I remember I 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:03.400 remember hearing a lawsuits involving that So speaking of lawsuits, 0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:05.360 I mean they're there everywhere. We can just do a 0:06:05.400 --> 0:06:10.840 segment on lawsuits. The here's one. This is a passenger 0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:19.200 who's claiming that airlines offer imported dog food to customers. 0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:26.479 A guy traveling with China Eastern Airlines, and he showed 0:06:26.520 --> 0:06:31.600 a picture of the business class menu and the people 0:06:31.640 --> 0:06:34.200 were like blown away. This thing went viral this week, 0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:37.080 the guy on Facebook. It was a picture of the 0:06:37.160 --> 0:06:41.160 menu drawings attention. It drew attention to a disturbing occurrence. 0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:46.040 Several dishes were offered, including appetizers, soup, breads, and desserts. 0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:49.840 Among the array of dishes the dog food option. So 0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:53.320 they literally they didn't even like hide it. They're like, hey, 0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:57.760 we've got we've got doc now is it possible that 0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:00.000 they put that on there in case people were traveling 0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:03.200 with their dogs? But I'm looking at it here and 0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:08.719 it says smoked pepper, beef, vanilla shrimp, imported dog food. 0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:12.520 Like it literally said imported dog food on the menu. 0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:16.640 I mean, are people like into eating dog food? I know, 0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:20.080 I've heard urban legends that sometimes old people eat dog food. 0:07:21.480 --> 0:07:24.880 The other day there was leftover gravy, uh huh, and 0:07:24.920 --> 0:07:27.840 my wife. He slopped it on top of this to 0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:32.560 go container for our oldest and it looked like Alpo. 0:07:32.960 --> 0:07:35.840 That dogs licked that whole thing, and. 0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:38.000 I thought, but what an old reference Alpo? 0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:41.320 Yeah. Yeah, Now we got into a debate. We we 0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:43.400 talked about this on the podcast last week. There was 0:07:43.440 --> 0:07:47.000 this debate whether or not dry or wet dog food, 0:07:47.240 --> 0:07:50.760 like what is better for the dog, the dry or 0:07:50.800 --> 0:07:56.040 the wet. And now human food is better dry or wet? 0:07:56.160 --> 0:07:59.280 Is food better? Like you pour gravy all over something. 0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:01.960 Most of the food we eats pretty dry, right, I 0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:08.800 would think, like chips, there's not no moisture and chips, nuts, candy, 0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:09.640 that kind of stuff. 0:08:10.000 --> 0:08:13.560 Yeah. And now there's the companies who sell the healthy 0:08:13.720 --> 0:08:17.440 dog food that goes in your refrigerator, the fresh food 0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:18.840 for dogs. 0:08:19.160 --> 0:08:23.080 Yeah, I'm good on that. I'm all right on that. Well, 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:25.880 here's another story. We get tons of these on the 0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:30.960 Fifth Hour podcast. Tourists left stranded in the Nevada desert 0:08:31.080 --> 0:08:34.079 because they followed the map the you know the map 0:08:34.120 --> 0:08:36.400 on your phone. It took them on a short cut 0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:39.000 and they ended up stranded in the middle of nowhere 0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:41.199 in Nevada. 0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:43.800 And sounds like when you were the pace car. 0:08:44.480 --> 0:08:46.800 Oh yeah, I did not even know those roads existed. 0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:49.120 I had no idea that those roads existed out there. 0:08:49.120 --> 0:08:52.959 But they were traveling back to Vegas through Olt from 0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:57.079 LA to Vegas, and they took a short cut and 0:08:57.120 --> 0:09:00.400 they ended up stuck on a dirt road. Apparently just 0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:03.200 one car. There were a bunch of people that were 0:09:03.280 --> 0:09:07.400 led by Google Maps out to the middle of nowhere 0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:11.640 and because there was I guess a delay on I fifteen, 0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:14.679 which no, they never have those delays on I fifteen 0:09:14.880 --> 0:09:19.760 between La and Vegas. And there you go a desert 0:09:19.840 --> 0:09:21.319 road that doesn't even look like a road. I'm not 0:09:21.400 --> 0:09:23.280 gonna photo to any it looks just like a it's 0:09:23.320 --> 0:09:23.960 just like dirt. 0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:25.520 It's just dirt and. 0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:28.360 All because there are actually paved roads out in the desert, 0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:31.080 out in the middle of nowhere. And so these people 0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:33.959 had to call nine to one one because they were 0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:36.640 in the middle of nowhere. We're stuck on a dirt road. 0:09:37.200 --> 0:09:40.280 But at some point doesn't common sense kick in. We're like, 0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:42.560 we're not gonna follow a map like the map's taking 0:09:42.600 --> 0:09:45.760 as a place we shouldn't go. Maybe we ought to 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:48.280 go back to the highway and go back the way 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:49.880 we came. Do they ever do that? I don't. It 0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:50.640 doesn't seem like. 0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:54.040 It, no, because I mean I've been using the ways 0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:57.000 app as long as you have. Yeah, and to a 0:09:57.000 --> 0:10:00.840 lot of people, especially youngsters who maybe only been driving 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:04.400 for a few years, that's the bible. I mean, whatever 0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:06.760 it says, you do that. So, I mean we've heard 0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:10.520 those funny stories about people driving into bodies of water 0:10:10.640 --> 0:10:12.720 because they're GPS told them to. 0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:15.080 Oh yeah, oh yeah, those happened. 0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:16.240 I now we. 0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:19.199 Should make people go down to Triple A and get maps. 0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:19.520 Is what we should do. 0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:19.960 Danny. 0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:21.959 Yeah, a Thomas Guide. 0:10:21.760 --> 0:10:24.360 Old school, right, Remember the Thomas Guide we had to 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:26.599 figure out we go on a family road trip and 0:10:26.679 --> 0:10:28.520 the family had to get all the maps out to go, 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:32.000 figure out where to go and have what roads to 0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:34.160 take and all that. You didn't worry about the traffic. 0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:36.080 Never worried about the traffic on that. 0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:39.800 Back in the day, when we were in school, we 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:43.880 actually had to have a class about how to read maps. 0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:46.280 Yeah, yeah, there's an art to it. Now you don't 0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:47.920 have to worry about it just tells you exactly where 0:10:47.920 --> 0:10:49.199 to go, and it might get you stranded in the 0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:52.959 middle of nowhere on some dusty Winnemucca Road out in 0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:57.240 the middle of Nevada. Which Winnemucca Road is in Nevada. Oh, 0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:01.120 here's a fun story. Super pigs are threatened invade the 0:11:01.280 --> 0:11:06.120 northern states of the US. Here Canada super pigs. Do 0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:10.640 you see this? An exploding population of hard to eradicate 0:11:10.760 --> 0:11:14.840 superpigs in Canada is threatening to spill south of the border. 0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:19.000 Do they not respect our sovereign nation. Northern states such 0:11:19.000 --> 0:11:22.880 as our friends in Minnesota, North Dakota, and Montana are 0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:27.960 trying to stop the invasion of these super pigs in Canada. 0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:33.360 The wild pigs roaming Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba who hoose 0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:37.760 a new threat. They are often crossbred and they combined 0:11:37.800 --> 0:11:42.280 the survival skills of the wild bore with the size 0:11:42.320 --> 0:11:47.439 and high fertility of domestic swine to create the super pig, 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:51.160 and they have spread out of control. There's a report 0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:55.439 from the University of Saskatchewan that says one of Canada 0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:59.679 this is apparently authority on super pigs calls the feral 0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:03.240 swane the most invasive animal on the planet and an 0:12:03.240 --> 0:12:07.720 ecological train wreck. Watch out for the I wonder if 0:12:07.720 --> 0:12:09.520 they taste good. You think people that eat pig and 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:12.120 stuff like super pigs because they taste they taste me. 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:14.560 And these are rather large, these super pigs I bought. 0:12:14.880 --> 0:12:16.720 I looked at some photos. These are some big things. 0:12:17.040 --> 0:12:19.120 They're not quite the size of a cow, but they're 0:12:19.160 --> 0:12:21.439 not the size of your normal backyard pick. These things 0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:22.080 are pretty big. 0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:23.960 That's some thick bacon. 0:12:24.559 --> 0:12:26.840 That's a lot of bacon. That is a lot of bacon. 0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:30.600 So something else to worry about. I'd rather have those 0:12:30.679 --> 0:12:33.520 than remember the killer bees that were here and I 0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:35.880 guess are still here a couple of years ago. 0:12:36.640 --> 0:12:40.080 Oh yeah, have you ever had candied bacon? I have not. 0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:43.280 I bet you those super pigs when you make bacon 0:12:43.320 --> 0:12:46.640 out of them, they just automatically taste like candied bacon. 0:12:47.360 --> 0:12:49.280 Just put sugar all over them and you're good. Yeah, 0:12:49.360 --> 0:12:52.559 it's like brown sugar. Well, anything with brown sugar is 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:55.480 pretty good. You can't go wrong with brown sugar, you 0:12:55.520 --> 0:12:58.959 really can't. What is next on pop goes the culture? Well, 0:12:59.000 --> 0:13:02.000 Barbie has introduced the new toy. This is very exciting. 0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:04.560 We're big Barbie guys, Danny. We grew up with Barbie, 0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:06.840 unless we didn't, but I thought this was interesting. 0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:08.520 Their latest tearing their heads off. 0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:14.320 The latest barbie is Wilma Mankiller. They have introduced a 0:13:14.360 --> 0:13:22.440 Wilma Mankiller doll, honoring Cherokee nations first female principal chief. 0:13:23.800 --> 0:13:25.200 So there you go. 0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:31.920 Mankiller sounds sounds wonderful, available just in time for Christmas. 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:36.240 Sounds like a great idea. The late man Killer, a 0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:39.760 social activist, led the Cherokee Nation in what is now 0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:44.080 present day Oklahoma for ten years and I guess not 0:13:44.160 --> 0:13:47.240 that long ago, from nineteen eighty five to nineteen ninety five. 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:48.640 What a name. 0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:51.760 I'm looking for, a Wilma Mankiller. 0:13:52.240 --> 0:13:53.760 I got it all over me. 0:13:55.400 --> 0:13:57.439 All right, let's get to the mailbag.

But post you can email whenever 0:14:43.760 --> 0:14:45.520 you want just email whenever you want, all right, So 0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:48.920 the first one is from Alf from Nascar. He says, Guys, 0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:54.320 what's your position on traffic circles aka roundabouts? Where I 0:14:54.520 --> 0:14:59.120 come from? Rotaries? They seem to be popping up here 0:14:59.200 --> 0:15:03.920 like rabbits in the spring, says says Alf. So I 0:15:04.000 --> 0:15:06.360 do not like traffic circles. They are a pain of 0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:08.520 the behind. We don't have too many of them here 0:15:09.040 --> 0:15:13.160 in southern California, but when I have traveled around the country, 0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:17.200 I have had my run ins with traffic circles. The 0:15:17.240 --> 0:15:20.000 worst place I ever went for traffic circles, and I 0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:23.640 think this is the capital of traffic circles or roundabouts 0:15:23.720 --> 0:15:28.160 or rotaries, as you say, Alf, would be in Indianapolis, 0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:30.040 because I was there a long time ago. But when 0:15:30.040 --> 0:15:32.440 I was driving around Indianapolis there were like so many 0:15:32.480 --> 0:15:35.480 of these traffic circles, it was such a pain of 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:38.040 the behind. Danny, do you have a strong hot take 0:15:38.160 --> 0:15:39.240 on traffic circles. 0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:43.720 I was working for a radio station on the Central Coast, 0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:46.320 or the South Central Coast as I called it, because 0:15:46.320 --> 0:15:49.240 of all the Laker fans there in Pismo Beach in 0:15:49.280 --> 0:15:52.960 Santa Maria, California, yeah, and there's lots of traffic circles 0:15:53.040 --> 0:15:55.920 in the city of Santa Maria. I'm not sure why 0:15:56.000 --> 0:15:58.560 you know Santa Maria. Well, I do for the Costco. 0:15:59.240 --> 0:16:01.800 It's right in the room and I'm driving up to. 0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:05.680 The beaches. Further up. We stopped by the Costco to 0:16:05.680 --> 0:16:06.160 get gas. 0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:09.600 Yeah. Yeah. So, as I was doing morning drive on 0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:12.200 the hip hop R and B station, I made a 0:16:12.240 --> 0:16:16.120 declaration on the air that if the Lakers did not 0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:20.080 snap their losing streak that they had back then, that 0:16:20.200 --> 0:16:24.200 I was going to drive the radio station van in 0:16:24.280 --> 0:16:28.880 a circle thirty times. In one of those roundabouts. I 0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:31.520 lost the bet. I had to do it. And as 0:16:31.560 --> 0:16:34.200 I'm live on my cell phone on the morning show 0:16:34.600 --> 0:16:38.320 driving the van in the thirty circles, Santa Maria, PD 0:16:38.520 --> 0:16:39.840 showed up and pulled me over. 0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:44.200 They pulled you over? Is that not allowed? Are you? 0:16:44.200 --> 0:16:45.200 Were you violating me? 0:16:45.360 --> 0:16:50.120 I feel like a listener called it in or somebody 0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:53.320 for the PD was listening, because it felt like they 0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:55.240 were looking for me, if you know what I'm saying. 0:16:55.680 --> 0:16:59.960 Oh, okay, maybe they were listening or something and they yeah, yeah, 0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:01.720 did they give you a ticket or did they tell 0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:02.600 you to knock it off. 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:04.040 He just told me to knock it off. 0:17:04.240 --> 0:17:08.840 Okay, all right, Well, Indianapolis is known as the circle city, 0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:10.600 but I don't think it's for the traffic circles. But 0:17:10.640 --> 0:17:12.800 they do have a ton of They do have a 0:17:12.800 --> 0:17:16.760 ton of traffic circles there, and not not a fact 0:17:16.760 --> 0:17:18.800 because there's always like some people that don't know how 0:17:18.840 --> 0:17:22.520 to handle the traffic circle. They they're too skittish, they 0:17:22.560 --> 0:17:24.720 don't go into it fast enough. And then there's other 0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:28.119 people that are too fast. Like there's a it's like 0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:30.960 threading a needle. There's an art to it, and some 0:17:31.000 --> 0:17:32.359 people just are tairible at it. 0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:34.760 But I well, most people don't know who has the 0:17:34.880 --> 0:17:35.520 right of way. 0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:39.879 Yeah, yeah, they're not familiar. They passed the driving test, 0:17:39.960 --> 0:17:42.760 but then they forgot everything they learned in the driving test. 0:17:43.040 --> 0:17:46.760 Next up is Mike in Turkey Eaton, He says, Ben 0:17:46.840 --> 0:17:49.800 and Danny g what do you guys think about Darryl 0:17:49.880 --> 0:17:53.359 Hall obtaining a restraining order against John Oates? Are you 0:17:53.440 --> 0:17:56.440 as devastated as I am? Or do you not care? 0:17:56.520 --> 0:17:59.840 In the aftermath? Will you be joining team Hall or 0:17:59.840 --> 0:18:04.879 team Oates? Mike says, And also, what was the standout 0:18:04.880 --> 0:18:07.960 winner in your Thanksgiving spread this year, I have to 0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:10.200 give the nod to turkey. Well that's a hot take, Mike. 0:18:10.560 --> 0:18:13.600 Definitely not turkey at the Malor Mansion. I would give 0:18:13.600 --> 0:18:17.760 the nod to the brisket with the mashed potatoes and 0:18:17.960 --> 0:18:20.639 the mac and cheese on the side. Now, what was 0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:22.480 your That's a good question for you, though, Danny, because 0:18:22.520 --> 0:18:28.200 you had the ritzy Lucille's Barbecue home turkey where you 0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:30.080 brought it home and you had to you heat it 0:18:30.160 --> 0:18:31.640 up right, You had to put it back in the oven, 0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:33.040 heat it up a little bit. Is that correct? 0:18:33.160 --> 0:18:37.840 Yeah? It was pre sliced, okay, but the turkey was smoked, 0:18:38.200 --> 0:18:39.639 which we didn't like. 0:18:39.960 --> 0:18:41.640 You didn't like it really, Okay, I. 0:18:41.560 --> 0:18:43.000 Don't like smoke turkey. 0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:43.240 No. 0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:46.159 It had a weird aftertaste. But you know what was 0:18:46.200 --> 0:18:49.560 really good? We did half turkey, half am. The honey 0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:54.080 baked haam that Lucille's served was a plus. So for us, 0:18:54.160 --> 0:18:55.720 the ham was the standout. 0:18:56.040 --> 0:18:58.040 What about the did you get the biscuits? Did there 0:18:58.040 --> 0:18:58.919 what side dishes? 0:18:59.359 --> 0:19:02.879 Let's see mac and cheese stuffing. Oh, they have like 0:19:02.920 --> 0:19:03.800 a corn cake. 0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:06.640 Okay, that sounds good. 0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:09.640 Yeah, the corn cake was a favorite of the family. 0:19:10.480 --> 0:19:13.080 And again, if you missed the Saturday podcast, you said 0:19:13.080 --> 0:19:15.159 there were people lined up in a parking lot. There 0:19:15.200 --> 0:19:17.040 was no lu seal sign. But these are like high 0:19:17.160 --> 0:19:17.879 end vehicles. 0:19:18.359 --> 0:19:20.520 Yeah, I mean there were vehicles of all kinds in 0:19:20.560 --> 0:19:22.959 the line. But I at first thought it was the 0:19:22.960 --> 0:19:25.760 line was for needy people. But then I noticed some 0:19:25.800 --> 0:19:28.119 of the cars in line were fancy cars, and I 0:19:28.200 --> 0:19:31.960 was like, Oh, those people aren't here for free turkeys. Yeah. 0:19:32.200 --> 0:19:35.800 Yeah, well you never know, you never know. True. 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:38.080 Yeah, wealthy, stay wealthy. 0:19:39.800 --> 0:19:44.400 Let's see here. Next up is from Dave in Florida. 0:19:44.440 --> 0:19:46.879 He does not say where in Florida. Says Ben and Danny, 0:19:46.920 --> 0:19:49.159 g If you guys could live here in Florida for free, 0:19:50.160 --> 0:19:53.719 which part of the state would you choose? From Miami, Tampa, 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:58.960 Orlando or a small town? How about the Redneck Riviera? 0:19:59.000 --> 0:20:02.520 You guys can live with Ed who fled. I think 0:20:02.520 --> 0:20:04.040 we're good. I think we're good with that, right. We 0:20:04.040 --> 0:20:05.760 don't need to live with Jed who fled? I think 0:20:06.040 --> 0:20:07.960 he doesn't. Does he even live in a house. He's 0:20:07.960 --> 0:20:10.560 always wandering around in the middle of the night, which 0:20:10.600 --> 0:20:14.879 is troublesome. Calling the show from from that redneck riverer. No, 0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:17.520 I've not been to Tampa. I've been to Miami, I've 0:20:17.520 --> 0:20:21.560 been to Orlando. I haven't spent too much time in 0:20:21.600 --> 0:20:24.159 Florida over the years. Miami was fine. It's just reminded 0:20:24.200 --> 0:20:29.280 me of La just a flat La. Orlando seemed like 0:20:29.320 --> 0:20:32.399 Orange County to me to relate to. There is actually 0:20:32.440 --> 0:20:36.359 Orange County in Orlando. I guess if you're gonna live 0:20:36.359 --> 0:20:37.919 in Florida, you gotta live on the beach, right, Why 0:20:37.960 --> 0:20:38.879 would you live in Orlando? 0:20:39.000 --> 0:20:42.600 Yeah? Right, I was just gonna say Destin would be 0:20:42.840 --> 0:20:47.320 the destination. And Clay Travis is building a huge mansion 0:20:47.359 --> 0:20:50.440 there right now, so we should go crash his mansion 0:20:50.520 --> 0:20:51.280 once it's built. 0:20:51.480 --> 0:20:54.000 Now, is he leaving Tennessee to move to Florida or 0:20:54.040 --> 0:20:55.840 he's just gonna that's gonna be his vacation home. 0:20:55.960 --> 0:20:58.960 That's his vacation He already has a vacation home there, 0:20:59.240 --> 0:21:02.320 but it's so he's in the middle of building a 0:21:02.400 --> 0:21:06.359 multi million dollar mansion there in Destin on the beach. 0:21:06.680 --> 0:21:09.639 Well, since you're gonna host the Animal Thunderdome with Clay 0:21:10.000 --> 0:21:12.879 then and I do this podcast with you, then I 0:21:12.880 --> 0:21:16.320 think we should be able to rent it out, not 0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:18.440
