That's your guy Biden there, that's President's 91 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: sleepy San Francisco is doing that now with the giants. Um, 92 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: you know what I looked at the protocols at the 93 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 1: baseball stamps. You know the thing that I I I 94 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: laughed at was they have mask guidelines, which you're like, fine, whatever, 95 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: but they they are not. I guess I'm not allowing 96 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: you in several ballparks. I don't know if this is universal. 97 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: I know the Indians and the Dodgers have this that 98 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 1: the gator mask is not acceptable. But keep in mind, 99 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,239 Speaker 1: if you watch a baseball game, you will see players 100 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: on the Dodgers and the Indians and these other teams 101 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: wearing the gator mask. So the fan that goes into 102 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: the ballpark not allowed to wear the gator mask. But 103 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: you know, the guy on the team can can wear 104 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: the masks. And it's odd. At Yankee Stadium earlier in 105 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 1: the weekend Game one against the Blue Jays, he had 106 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: fans in attends that weren't wearing masks at all. Yeah, 107 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: oh my god, I can't believe that. More rules for 108 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: thee but not for me is the general mantra.

Whatever it was that that was 131 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: a jew cool player, Keith Smart back in the day 132 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: at Indiana, he said, Kevin says, which is just down 133 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: the street for me. I was wondering if you ever 134 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: covered any budding sports stars when they were in community 135 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: college earlier in your career before you hit the big time. Well, 136 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: I there were a few that made the pros then 137 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: when I was doing community college play by play at 138 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: Saddleback College, Anthony Carter was our top player. He was 139 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: a guard, played for the Miami Heat. Hit a game 140 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: winning shot at Madison Square Garden in a playoff series. 141 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: He's an assistant coach with the Atlanta Hawks now, but 142 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: he played in the NBA for like ten years. He 143 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: would go on to go to Hawaii, but he was 144 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: on the team that I was at at saddleback Keon Clark, 145 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: who you probably don't know he played in the NBA. 146 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: He was. He played at Irvine Valley College. We we 147 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: did some games that he did and as its saddleback. 148 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: And then the third person that I remember. I'm sure 149 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: there's more, but the third that I remember, we did 150 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: a football game. Saddleback was playing at Gagon's old school 151 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: and the quarterback was Steve Sarkisian. And uh so those 152 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: are the three that that stand out. El Camino College, Yes, 153 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: el Comino College. And that's before Sarkeesian went to b 154 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: y U, before he fell in love with Whiskey, uh 155 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: you know, and all that. And now he's the head 156 00:08:56,040 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: coach of Texas, right, so I've had a house connection 157 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: with the last two Texas Longhorns coaches pretty well. The 158 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: previous coach was an intern at the radio station I 159 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: worked at, and now sarkis all right? R J Insane 160 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: Antonio says, I sometimes hear you say the phrase, oh 161 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: y'all jumping onto the third rail during the show when 162 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: it's about to briefly turn political. What is the origin 163 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: of that phrase and when did it begin? Well, good question, 164 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:31,839 Speaker 1: r J. In San Antonio. It's rather obviously if you've 165 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: ever been on a subway, it comes from the subway system. 166 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: Right there, there's a pair of rails that the subway 167 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 1: cars on, and then in most subway systems, there's that 168 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: third rail that runs between or alongside, and that third 169 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: rail is where the electricity is. So if you touch 170 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: the third rail, you're going to die. Many people have died. 171 00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: It's also an homage to our boss, are programming guru, 172 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: the Great Don Martin, along with Scott Shapiro run Fox 173 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: Sports Radio, and uh Don's quite the character. And I've 174 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 1: met with Don several times. I have good relationship. We 175 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: don't talk that often, but when I've been in Don's office, 176 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 1: Don Martin, and when we discussed the show and what 177 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: we talked about and here, you know, anything political or 178 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: things like that. The third round, my third round you know. 179 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 1: That's so we're quoting him when we do that. It's 180 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 1: a way to suck up secretly, stealthily to our boss. 181 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: Third round, my m because that's his quote. That's his quote. 182 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: But it goes back to like the late eighteen hundred's 183 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: the first subway system with that with that technology in 184 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 1: the like the eighteen sixties, So it's been around for 185 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: a hundred and sixty years. That that phrase so fun 186 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:56,839 Speaker 1: fact Marcus and chin No California says, when you were 187 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 1: taking a shower, this is for both of us, when 188 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: you were taking a shower and you have to pee, 189 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: do you stop what you're doing to go to the 190 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: toilet then resume your shower, or do you take care 191 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: of business and improve your aim in the drain during 192 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: the shower? And Marcus says, any guy that says they 193 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:21,199 Speaker 1: don't aim in the drain is a liar in his opinion. Well, absolutely, 194 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: we all piss in the shower, don't. I don't believe 195 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: people that stop the shower. I don't buy that. Now 196 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: it gets a little more dicey if you got to 197 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: drop a deuce, Like if you're in the shower and 198 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: you gotta squirt, squirt, some some turns out that that 199 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: becomes problematic because you do have to stop the shower. 200 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: I don't think you've gotta be like an animal to 201 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: to poop in the shower, right, yeah, because then you 202 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: just ruin you know, once you do get out of 203 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: the shower, though, then you just ruin the toilet paper 204 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: because it's all wet. So it's really it's a bad 205 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: and it's a bad situation. Well, plus, you gotta get 206 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: whatever you left in the shower, assuming it's not running. 207 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: If it's a solid turd, you gotta then pick it 208 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: up and get rid of it. It comes you're not stop. No, 209 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: I I completely agreed. And it's like those baseball players. 210 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 1: It's good for your skin, right, the urine is good 211 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 1: for your skin.

My mom was running late. 245 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 1: She was a teacher, and she was speeding from our 246 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: house to UH to school to drop us all off. 247 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 1: And an officer a a bike a bike cop pulled 248 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 1: us over. And I remember the first thing he did 249 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: was looking the back and all of us are obviously 250 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: belted up, and so he looked at us like in 251 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: the passengers said to see my other sister, and then 252 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: looked at my mom, and you know, obviously gave us 253 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: the whole rundown. I'm a speeding in the whole nine 254 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: yards and then uh then yeah, obviously uh gave us 255 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: a warning and we were off on our way. But 256 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 1: I remember that I was like, oh my gosh, what's 257 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: going on here. I thought it was like a big 258 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: formal thing, like it was a procession to go to 259 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: school or something like that, because obviously my dad was 260 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: in the Harvard Division at that time, UH Pierre in Springfield, Massachusetts, 261 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: right since he's with a the vaccine rollout being in 262 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: full swing. Would you be open to having a Christmas 263 00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: in July ugly sweater cookout? That's from Pierre. You will not. Well, 264 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: you know, we we're gonna handle. I was watching the 265 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: Dodger Rockies games and with you know, crowds. It looks 266 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: like to me almost a full house at some of 267 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: those games in Denver, so there's people are coming back 268 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: milling about. I'm not gonna lie. I think you're a 269 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: little hesitant about doing something like that, like you would 270 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: the worst thing that can happen I go out and 271 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: do stuff. I think it's a lot of these these 272 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 1: rules I think are more for optics than anything. I'll 273 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: remember that if if I if I come to your 274 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: house and I go in your freezer and I see 275 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: that fucking Tomahawks still there, I'm a little piste off, 276 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 1: a little piste Off'm not gonna lie.

What are you getting the vaccine? 278 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: By the way, I guess you probably not gonna do 279 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 1: that anytime soon. No, I think you're eligible right now. 280 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm actually we are eligible. We're 281 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: considered a frontline workers. Really yeah, yeah, if you have 282 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: your badge on the Yeah, your your badge to come 283 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: into the building, slash that and you get right away. Yeah, 284 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 1: we have a couple of colleagues that did that at 285 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: Dodger Stadium and also at cal State Northridge. They got 286 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: to the front of the line because we're considered essential 287 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: personnel because of the news agency that well represent interesting. 288 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: I wanna, I wanna that's the Marshal right, is not 289 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 1: the Marshall bill or whatever? That? Yeah? Yeah, when when 290 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 1: are they coming out with a one shot so you 291 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: don't have to do the two Johnson and Johnson that 292 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: they consider a one shot. Now, you might have to 293 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: get a booster once every year, but Johnson and Johnson's 294 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: considered the one shot. Yeah, I maderna and fiser or two? 295 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 1: What are you gonna get it? I don't know. I 296 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: mean my wife wants me to. She had it and 297 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: she's fine or whatever. Actually, the fun and the funny 298 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 1: thing is I told my my brother, my liberal brother, 299 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: uh in Wisconsin. He just got the vaccine and he 300 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: was asking me the same question you asked me, and 301 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,080 Speaker 1: I told him, I said, oh, no, you're my guinea. 302 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna wait and see how you do. And then Uh, 303 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: which is true. I mean we have the same DNA, 304 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: So if nothing happens to him, I think I'm good, 305 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: you know, So I'm gonna wait until he gets the 306 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 1: second shot in a couple of weeks, and then nothing 307 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: happens with him, I'll go down and get my vaccine. 308 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 1: But you could agree to that. There's not that's not 309 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: it's not a reason to to go rush into it, 310 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: right Like it's just oh no, I'm not rushing you. 311 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: I mean I wanna you know, I want to make 312 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 1: sure you know everything is is good, and you know, 313 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 1: many every day more people get the vaccine, and it 314 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 1: seems like most most everyone's okay. So you know, there's 315 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 1: always gonna be a margin of error in anything where 316 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,719 Speaker 1: you know, crap goes wrong with anything. There's bad police, 317 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 1: there's bad teachers, there's bad doctors. But as long as 318 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: it's a very low percentage, you play play the plus. 319 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 1: I don't think we have any choice here at Kisco, 320 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,679 Speaker 1: and I think if you don't do it, you're not 321 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: gonna be able to do anything. So it's a it's 322 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: an interesting dilemma. Uh. And Pierre also says, what is 323 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: the shelf life of the average frozen steak asking for 324 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 1: a friend. Boy. We're gonna find out though, one of 325 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 1: these days. Barry in Tennessee, our buddy Barry writes in 326 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 1: who Questions for this week, he said, I know we 327 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: have our favorite callers and those who we don't care for. 328 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,439 Speaker 1: But I don't think I have ever heard why Eddie 329 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 1: does not care for the calls of Rachel from Manta 330 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: Bello dealy dedy Uh if you had to guess, why 331 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,679 Speaker 1: does Eddie not care for Rachel's call? All right, So 332 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 1: good question, Barry. I have to theory theories on this. 333 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,639 Speaker 1: First of all, I feel like they, the guys on 334 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: the show don't like Rachel because she's a big fan 335 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: of mine. She's very kind to me, she's very courteous 336 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,959 Speaker 1: to me. She's a very polite woman. She flirts with me, 337 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: she's flirtatious. This bothers them. They're troubled by that. Secondly, 338 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 1: they're annoyed because Rachel will break out into song and 339 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: it's usually the same song, and that bothers them. They're 340 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: triggered by that. So though some version of those two 341 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 1: things I would say is why they dislike Rachel. But 342 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: I love Rachel. I think Rachel's great, She's fun. She's 343 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,120 Speaker 1: a big fan of the show. She's been very kind 344 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 1: to us over the years. She's sent us candies and 345 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: whatnot and supported us. So I'm a big fan. Uh. 346 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 1: And also, Barrus is, how did the idea for the 347 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: fifth Hour come about? Was it Gascon's idea? No, well, 348 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,400 Speaker 1: I'm glad he asked that question. Did you just sit 349 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,679 Speaker 1: around and say, you know, I don't think twenty hours 350 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:29,639 Speaker 1: a week of radio is enough. I need to do 351 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 1: three more hours of podcasting. What is the backstory for 352 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 1: the fifth Hour?

You want 358 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 1: to go first, Guestcon, then I'll give the truth, or 359 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 1: you want to give the lie after I give the 360 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 1: trip lie of the truth. But you know age before beauty, 361 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: I guess you can go first. Well, I'll give the 362 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: truth here, Barry, So I had been moonlighting. I always 363 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,199 Speaker 1: like to have a couple of gigs. I always like 364 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,159 Speaker 1: to have a couple of gigs. I like to juggle 365 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 1: a couple of things. And I had a gig, a 366 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 1: side gig at w e I in Boston doing satellite 367 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 1: broadcasting for the Red Sox station during the night show, 368 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 1: where I would do that two or three days a 369 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 1: week and then I would do my show. So I 370 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 1: was doing seven hours of radio. Uh that show is 371 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 1: like three hours, and sometimes it was four hours. So 372 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: sometimes I do eight hours of radio working a real job. 373 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: But we switched affiliates in Boston. My my show had 374 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 1: had not been on and it was off the Boston market, 375 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: and they picked us up at the Sports Hub, which 376 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 1: is the number one station in Boston. We're excited to 377 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 1: be on there. We've been on there a while now. 378 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: The show has done well on the Sports Hub. But 379 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: as a result of that, I lost the EI gig 380 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 1: because they're major competitors, and it's like if you work 381 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 1: at Apple, you can't work at Microsoft or Vice versus. 382 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: So uh uh. Obviously I get paid much more from 383 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: the syndicated show. So I I left EI, and I 384 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 1: was like, well, I gotta do something else, and the 385 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: podcast is something I was playing around what I wanted 386 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 1: to do, and so uh I Heart has invested a 387 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: lot in podcasting, and they were looking for the content, 388 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: and uh tell, here we are now for the lie. 389 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: Here's David Gasco. That's interesting. It's a it's a good tale, 390 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 1: and I think it's a fascinating one because you revealed 391 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: a few things. Because you you work Carret Fox, uh 392 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: I Heart obviously and then w E I, which you 393 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 1: worked at UM both paying jobs. Both the compensated for 394 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 1: your services that were rendered. And so I remember when 395 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:48,399 Speaker 1: this came to its inception, I had the thought that 396 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 1: you should do more digital stuff, and then I had 397 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: the I guess the thought, but more like the desire 398 00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 1: to do more on the network as well, and to 399 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: get my voice out there. And I thought, well, I've 400 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: worked on some of your shows. I don't like working 401 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 1: the overnights because you should get off like Eddie gets off, 402 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 1: like at six o'clock in the morning. But I want 403 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 1: to to work with you, and I just thought like, hey, 404 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,159 Speaker 1: maybe I could provide that was some support on a 405 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 1: digital platform, since I've done that previously and I do 406 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 1: it to this day. So I remember vividly texting you 407 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 1: about this, and you're like back and forth, back and forth. 408 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: And then I specifically remember talking to our our program director, 409 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 1: Scott's Shapiro about this and word I uh say, I 410 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 1: brought it up to him about doing something like this, 411 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 1: and I came to the knowledge that I heard Media 412 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: provides each employee with a portal to create podcasting content 413 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: if they like to on their own accord. Now there's 414 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 1: no marketing budget behind it, but you are able to 415 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 1: do it free at charge because they will handle all 416 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:58,439 Speaker 1: the background stuff on it. Uh So we had talked 417 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,360 Speaker 1: finally put some them together. I had nudged a veto 418 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: our sound guide to create a little something something, and 419 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: then Scott, by the graces of God, from July to August, 420 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: got that thing in motion and eventually it was green 421 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 1: light and we got it off the ground. So that 422 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: is the fairy tale version of events, and what I 423 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: gave was the real version. We talked about this early 424 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 1: in January of twenty nineteen. Well, I talked about a 425 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 1: lot of Actually I talked about a lot of things, 426 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: but you usually talk about a lot of things with 427 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 1: a lot of people. But I wasn't gonna do the 428 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 1: podcast while I had the two radio gigs I was 429 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: talking to do it. I my I was stretched thin 430 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:42,199 Speaker 1: as I could possibly be stretched. But it reminded me 431 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: when I was doing the EI stuff. It reminded me 432 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: when I had the website Ben Mallard dot com and 433 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 1: I would do that for like twelve hours thirteen hours 434 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: a day and then do the radio was paying the ast. 435 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 1: Yeah anyway, Uh, Carlos in Bang Bang Houston, Texas, he says, 436 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. David as a producer, was all right? 437 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: Kind is that? Congratulations guests on According to our guy 438 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:17,120 Speaker 1: in Houston, you were adequate. Wow, I dope. I love it. 439 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 1: Uh it wasn't great, but was it wasn't bad either? Well, 440 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 1: you weren't bad anyway, Uh, he says. Anyway, what are 441 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,679 Speaker 1: your your guys favorite documentary of all time? What are 442 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: your favorite documentaries of all time? And what is the 443 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 1: name of the series that you watched on Netflix that 444 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: devalued all the baseball cards and stuff like that? All right? Uh, 445 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: so you've asked two separate questions. The baseball documentary, I 446 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 1: believe it was called Jack of All Trades. I'm not 447 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: sure if it's still available on on the streaming services 448 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 1: or not, but jack of all trades and it goes 449 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: into the late eighties early nineties and how the baseball 450 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 1: card and market just all of us who are around 451 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 1: the age where we bought a bunch of baseball cards 452 00:24:56,200 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 1: were complete jackasses because we we got screwed. They just 453 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 1: kept printing up baseball cards. My favorite documentaries off the 454 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 1: top of my head, the three that stand out that 455 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: I recommended or must watch documentaries are Operation Odessa, super Men, 456 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna throw in that super Size Me to 457 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 1: the Chicken thing that we we actually did a podcast 458 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: about that a couple of years ago. I thought that 459 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,959 Speaker 1: was a really well done documentary. So those are the 460 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 1: three right off the top. Gascon Any documentaries that you 461 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 1: would like to add that there must watch, I guess 462 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,719 Speaker 1: being a homer, i'd say, O. J May in America 463 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 1: it was a really good documentary, wonder why. Yeah, that 464 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 1: was fantastic. Um the Al Jazeera documentary that you sent me, 465 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 1: Oh the Dark Side and Dark that was that was 466 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 1: pretty good one. And I think the most entertaining one 467 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 1: for me was what we did the documentary coverage, um 468 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: with the fucking Russians and the submarine that was Operational Desk. 469 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 1: It was that was called Operational Desk. Really good one. 470 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: Quite a big character, a bunch of characters in that 471 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: they got nuclear they got a nuclear sub and helicopters. 472 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: And then the way they talked about it was, you know, 473 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: they finally rested that guy that was on the run. Yeah, 474 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, popped him. That was really good. 475 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: That was I agree, Uh, well made all right, keep 476 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: it going.

Now I want to get a snake, but 499 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: the warden says no, So no snake, no snake for 500 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 1: John the jelly. Well, I never had anything crazy. My 501 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: brother had a snake, and I've told the story before, 502 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 1: but I was a little freaked out by snakes. My 503 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 1: brother's a little older than me, and my mom and 504 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: my brother the snake got out of the cage, and 505 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: my mom and my brother said, don't worry, Ben, the 506 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 1: snakes probably out in the in the backyard and the 507 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 1: trees or whatever. You have nothing to worry about. Uh. 508 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: And the snake was actually sleeping under my bed. We 509 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: found it under my bed and I got a little 510 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: freaked out by that. But that's that's about it. What 511 00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 1: about you, guess do you consider rabbits a non traditional pet? Nah? 512 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: I think more cats, dogs, and fish like a pig 513 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 1: would be a non traditional pet. Pig coyote. No, I 514 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: haven't had. We We had our guy from North Hollywood's 515 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: got a pet bobcat. He domestic. Yes, we got a 516 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: listener who domesticated a bobcat. That's awesome. Uh, yeah, until 517 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: the bobcat gets hungry late at night eats your nose. 518 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,680 Speaker 1: But yeah, up until there, you're you're good. All right. 519 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 1: Lee from the Valley of the Sun says, how many 520 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: times have you guys been fired? Let's see here? I 521 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: got fired from FSR one time college football gig, a 522 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: studio show that I did, done, NBC Sports Network Done. 523 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: That's three. I didn't get fired from six ninety. I 524 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: relocated to another station in the company in l A. 525 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,239 Speaker 1: I didn't get fired from w e I. It was 526 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 1: I had to leave on my own. Uh. Lost a 527 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: couple of website gigs. But I didn't really get fired. 528 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 1: They just didn't offer me enough money, so I didn't 529 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 1: want to do it anymore. When I had Ben Mallar 530 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: dot com and I was with Yahoo and Fox Sports 531 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: dot com, the money was just not it was ship money. 532 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: So I think it's only three times. What about you guess? Yeah, 533 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 1: only once. That was when I was working in the 534 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: banking industry, when they started just decimating mortgage departments after 535 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: the two thousand and seven two nine mortgage back securities. 536 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: That took a nose dive. So you're not counting when 537 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: the baseball team went to the Carolinas. No, they dissolved. 538 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: The team just dissolved flat I thought they relocated in 539 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: the North Carolina and they dissolved flat out. Sure about that. 540 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: I'm positive Mason the Millennial alright, see, and he says, 541 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 1: I had another five star review. But this is also 542 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: what I'd like to contribute. Uh, he says, all jokes aside, 543 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: I love of your guys. Combo. Uh, then this must 544 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: be a miss. I don't know. It just says David's 545 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: not a bad guy. Okay, this thick it sound? Why 546 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 1: does it sound painful for you to say that? But 547 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,719 Speaker 1: but he says, don't don't don't tell him that, all right. 548 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 1: I will not Mason, I will not tell I will 549 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: not tell Mason the Millennial at Gagon is a good guy. 550 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 1: And Mason, you should be on Baseball Reference, right, now, 551 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: I know it's Sunday, but you should be on Baseball 552 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: reference trying to learn you know, maybe one player in baseball. 553 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: How about that? You just point that out alright, Ohio, 554 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 1: al rights, and he says, Ben, if you are at 555 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: a four way stop intersection, car in front and to 556 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 1: the side are trying to be so nice. They both 557 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 1: sit there forever waiting for the other person to go 558 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: How many seconds do you consider it appropriate before you 559 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: honk your horn to get somebody moving off their ass. 560 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 1: I usually wait three to four seconds before I I 561 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 1: hit the horn. Do you think that is too much 562 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 1: or not enough? Yeah? Well played? Uh well, here's the 563 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 1: way I I look at all of the variables involved 564 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: in this. Am I alone in the car? Am I 565 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 1: with my wife in the car? If I with a 566 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: relative in the car? Right? So I look at that. Uh. 567 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: Then I also look at the other people, whether or 568 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 1: not they might have guns in their car, right, because 569 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 1: some people get triggered just by a horn honk. But yeah, 570 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 1: three or four seconds is more than enough. I mean, 571 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: and we live in the age where every time I'm 572 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 1: at a stoplight, I feel like the person in front 573 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 1: of me is texting away and not watching the signal, 574 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: and so there's always this lag time. Now at least 575 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: I've noticed this where they're looking at their phones and 576 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: they're not driving and paying attention, and so it ends 577 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: up becoming problematic. But I don't hank the horn as much. 578 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you why. Al uh, because I have 579 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 1: a rather meek, weak sounding horn. It's not a masculine, 580 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: strong horn. It's a very weak horn. And I feel 581 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: a little embarrassed. It's like a clown horn. Dude, Like 582 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 1: I said, you know, I don't know. If I had 583 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 1: a more masculine, loud, powerful, intimidating horn, I would use 584 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 1: it more. But I don't. I don't have that sounds prison. 585 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 1: You want to chime in here, are you get? Well, 586 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 1: the rules of the road. You typically have the driver 587 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: to your right, you allow them, you yield to the 588 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 1: driver to the right. Now we're not doing rules, we're 589 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 1: doing what actually happens. Yeah, well, I always observe the 590 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: driver to the right, So I will wait, and if 591 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 1: I have to wait, i'll wait. Okay. Rock Sanne in 592 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: Colorado Rights and you might know her work. She is 593 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: a big fan girl for you, by the way, all right, 594 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: as she should be I don't know but that, she says. 595 00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 1: First off, whoever Gretchen is tell her to go listen 596 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: to someone else or something else. Oh, she's referring to 597 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 1: the previous podcast. A second, whoever said Brian Finley was 598 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: better at the podcast than Gascon needs their head checked. 599 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: Rock Sand says Finley is seriously a creep and a stalker. 600 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: Wow damn. She says, his updates are atrocious and he 601 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: looks and sounds like he smokes five pounds of we today. Wow, 602 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 1: Rock Sand damn, believe them. I disagree with everything Rock 603 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 1: Sanne said, except the part where he's a stalker. He's 604 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: a Stage five clinger, Ryan Finley, she says. Third, whatever 605 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 1: you have to do to get Gascon to do the podcast, 606 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: please do it. The chemistry and the banter between you 607 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 1: two is hilarious and much needed entertainment on the weekends. 608 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 1: Rock Sand, every time I see your name, Rocks and 609 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: I think of the song by the way, But listen, 610 00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: listen to me, all right, take a step back, all right. 611 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: I know, I know you're a fan of Gascout. I 612 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 1: don't know what happened. I don't know why. It seems 613 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: odd to me that you'd be such a fan of his. 614 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 1: But please, I thought it was well written. Yeah, well 615 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: interpreted by you. Uh she She's not done.

But now 648 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 1: they have this colosso veteran, a colossal goliath of a quarterback. 649 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 1: So in comparison Matthew Stafford versus Jared Goff is he's 650 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 1: Stafford's a yetie, alright, He's he's the abominable snowman coming 651 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 1: from Detroit, and he looks like he's in shape. He 652 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 1: looks like he lost weight, you could see it in 653 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 1: his face. He looks like he's in game shape. So 654 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 1: I'm betting on Sean McVeigh being a really good coach, 655 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 1: one of the top five coaches in the NFL. And 656 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: if I'm right about that, if I'm correct about that, 657 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 1: then that would mean that Stafford, who hasn't had a 658 00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 1: really good coach in his career with the Lions, with 659 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 1: the XS and ohs, ability of Sean McVeigh to drop 660 00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 1: up an offense, and now a quarterback that can actually 661 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:08,440 Speaker 1: run that offense without having to be spoon fed like 662 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:13,000 Speaker 1: Jared Golf, this should be an amazing relationship. So I 663 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: anticipate big things for Matthew Stepford. We had Sean Salisbury 664 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: on the Great Houston Talk Shows to ESPN Guy back 665 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,440 Speaker 1: in the day, and Sean Salisbury said he thinks Stafford's 666 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 1: got shot at winning the m v P in the 667 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 1: NFL this year, but that it would be fun. That 668 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: division is going to be pretty much wide open if 669 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 1: San Francisco gets fully healthy, well, they don't have I 670 00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 1: don't really have a quarterback. The Niners, you know they 671 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,719 Speaker 1: have a guy that and the Arizona does. They got 672 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 1: a pint sign and they've got alligator on. It's not 673 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 1: August yet, and there'son to take shots at Murray. Keep 674 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:48,879 Speaker 1: you gotta stay, stay in shape, gotta be prepared. Boys 675 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 1: the garden home there running around there, you go, Let's 676 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,320 Speaker 1: use your guy, get shorty. That's that's what the defense 677 00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:01,399 Speaker 1: to say when they play year number three for Aler Murray. Yeah, 678 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 1: I've heard that before. Barely bigger than a garden only. 679 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 1: It's gonna be great. We can put some you can 680 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 1: put your your money where your mouth is. When we 681 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 1: get down to regular season totals, yeah, we'll do that. 682 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,839 Speaker 1: We'll do that. I look forward to it. Of course, 683 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 1: the total is gonna be low because the Cardinals have 684 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 1: they put a great team together. It was like they'd 685 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:22,720 Speaker 1: have a really good team with all these old guys 686 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:27,239 Speaker 1: they keep signing. Brandon in Wisconsin says, I know this 687 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: is more of a girl thing to do, but have 688 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 1: you thought about what you would name your kids slash 689 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 1: children if you were to have them. With our twins coming, 690 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 1: my wife and I have been thinking of both boy 691 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:44,280 Speaker 1: and girl names. It's really becoming difficult. So from Brandon 692 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 1: in Wisconsin. Yeah, the name things. That's a tough one, 693 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: right because you a lot of families wanna honor a relative, 694 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: you know, from from previous generations. Other people want original names. 695 00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,239 Speaker 1: It's a tough it's a tough deal. And then the 696 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 1: name is sold part because like it kind of work. 697 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 1: Most people work in to the name, like you know, 698 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:09,759 Speaker 1: the cliche if you you you know, if you name 699 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 1: like a woman a certain name, she's more inclined to 700 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 1: be a dancer. You know what I'm saying. Guess singer, 701 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 1: do you go? Would you go Biblical with the name? Um, 702 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. It depends if Brandon's a religious you're 703 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:28,880 Speaker 1: asking me, I would likely honor a relative or I 704 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 1: try to come up with a unique name, but not 705 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 1: a unique name that is so off the grid. You know, 706 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 1: there's some names that are not as popular. When I 707 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 1: was a kid, Ben was not a popular name. There's 708 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 1: a lot of people named Ben now, But when I 709 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 1: was a kid, it was not popular and they just 710 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 1: the only band that was famous was Benji the dog 711 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:51,920 Speaker 1: in a in these movies. And uh, yeah, it's a 712 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 1: tough call. I mean that's I'm guessing woke society. At 713 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 1: some point, Brandon will say kids should not be named 714 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:00,880 Speaker 1: until they're old enough to pick their own name, right, 715 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 1: you know, because it's it's it's really wrong that these 716 00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 1: kids are forced to have their their names presented to 717 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,360 Speaker 1: them by their parents. It's not right. Whatever they do, 718 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,720 Speaker 1: they can't butcher the spelling. So if they go Jeff, 719 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 1: please don't go G E O F F. You don't 720 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 1: want the toys r US version. Yeah, you know. And 721 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,399 Speaker 1: the other thing too, is like you want your kid 722 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,360 Speaker 1: to be able to go to Disneyland and get the 723 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 1: little license plate with their name on it, if possible, right, 724 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:37,120 Speaker 1: if possible. And if you're your your name is like Jabroni, 725 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 1: it's hard to find a little license plate that says 726 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 1: Jabroni or something like that. Anyway. Uh. Jared from Montclair 727 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 1: in Callie says, how do the Clippers win come playoff 728 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 1: time with Kauai and playoff p Well, Jared just watched 729 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 1: stay tuned because they're gonna win the NBA Championship this year. Emmett, 730 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 1: the blind Seahawk fan in Olympia, Washington, says, if you 731 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 1: could buy a shirt that says anything, bad about the Astros. 732 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 1: Would you buy it and wear it now? I'm not 733 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 1: gonna buy astro. Eddie sent me a shirt as a 734 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 1: gift a couple of years ago that said asterisk Houston asterisk, 735 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:18,600 Speaker 1: which is a cool shirt. But that's it. I'm I 736 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:22,839 Speaker 1: don't need to wear any astro astro paraphidia, do not 737 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,399 Speaker 1: do not need that. Who else do we have here? 738 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 1: Chris and Edmonton, Alberta says, how many times do you 739 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 1: think Kyrie Irving is going to take a personal day? 740 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 1: Do you think he'll ever play for the Nets again? Wait, 741 00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:38,040 Speaker 1: he came back, Chris, you said this before he came back, 742 00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:39,760 Speaker 1: But he came back. If he pulls the same stunt 743 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 1: during the playoffs and we if we get there, if 744 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:45,719 Speaker 1: they get there, any chance that the Nets have of 745 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 1: taking home a ring without Kyrie available? Yeah, they can 746 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,879 Speaker 1: win without Kyrie. If Harden and Durant are there, they're 747 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 1: they're certainly more than capable of winning. But unfortunately we're 748 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:58,399 Speaker 1: gonna lose to the Clippers in the NBA Finals. Kent 749 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:02,800 Speaker 1: in Colorado writes it. Uh.
