It's about the 0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:56.640 life and times of myself and Danny and things that 0:01:57.240 --> 0:02:01.680 have taken place recently. Stories behind the microphone, things that 0:02:01.720 --> 0:02:06.120 happened behind the microphone at Fox Sports Radio, Danny on 0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:09.560 with Covino and Rich and hanging out there in Viva 0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:12.920 Las Vegas, and you got me from the Overnight show. 0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:16.800 So another story. Yesterday we talked about my walk in 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:19.880 the park and I was doing my radio hit in 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:22.720 New Zealand and then all of a sudden there was 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:25.440 a fire. Trace got a weird thing. Fire truck went 0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:27.800 vi not weird, it's normal thing, but they did not 0:02:27.880 --> 0:02:30.800 expect it and became a big, big point of conversation 0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:33.640 on that show. So another story about me wandering around 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:35.680 this is this is a two fold story. So I 0:02:35.680 --> 0:02:39.000 called the double Wamy. Danny, I called the double Wamy. 0:02:39.040 --> 0:02:41.960 Got a backup. For one second, I couldn't find siren 0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:44.919 effects in my library yesterday. I kind of swore you've 0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:46.760 done sirens on the podcast before. 0:02:47.720 --> 0:02:49.280 Yeah, I'm gonna see you're gonna try to get me 0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:53.160 to do a siren and I'm not gonna fall into 0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:55.440 your trap. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna fall in 0:02:55.520 --> 0:02:59.160 your trap. That's not gonna happen. Maybe tomorrow, but not 0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:03.480 not today. So the double whammy thing. So I get up. 0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:05.400 I changed my schedule a little bit. I don't go 0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:08.240 to bed as late as I used to. I get up. 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:10.600 I try to start my day. Instead of ending my 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:12.320 day with the workout, I try to start my day. 0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:15.160 Think's better to sleep and then work out when you 0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:17.840 wake up, hit your day start. So I've been doing 0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:19.720 this for the last couple of weeks. Who I've been 0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:21.520 getting up a little bit earlier than I normally do 0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:24.799 and and just try to go out and get alectras. 0:03:25.320 --> 0:03:27.440 I usually go to the gym, but a couple of 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:30.200 days this week I decided to go for a walk. Okay, 0:03:30.280 --> 0:03:32.360 big deal, who cares? You know what? Happened on one 0:03:32.400 --> 0:03:35.600 of the days where I had that incident with the 0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:38.280 you know, the the New Zealand people. So another day, 0:03:38.320 --> 0:03:42.640 I get up early, I go out and I'm walking 0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:48.240 and I really went far, like I went on a 0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:51.040 like a a six seven mile walk. I just I 0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:54.120 was going for it, and you know, I'm doing my thing. 0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:57.040 And there's some some nice trails where I'm at in 0:03:57.080 --> 0:03:59.080 the north Woods and some nice places to walk, and 0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:01.880 so is out walking around and joined the nice weather, 0:04:02.760 --> 0:04:05.960 and I'm walking and walking and people walking by, you know, 0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:09.640 some people wave, some people don't wave. And then I 0:04:10.000 --> 0:04:16.160 get about two miles in to the walk and I 0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:18.760 looked down and I'm like, oh, wait a minute, there's 0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:24.520 something something is not right with my wardrobe. And I 0:04:24.560 --> 0:04:27.719 was really kind of tired. I really owned I looked groggy, 0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:30.840 a little foggy, and I really unsure what was going on. 0:04:32.279 --> 0:04:36.600 And it didn't seem like anybody noticed anything. People were 0:04:36.640 --> 0:04:39.800 waving or whatever. And then I looked down again and 0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:42.680 I had the light bulb go off in my head 0:04:43.760 --> 0:04:47.440 that for a two mile walk to the first two 0:04:47.480 --> 0:04:50.599 miles of the walk, I had gone. I got up 0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:54.360 in a hurry. I put my clothes on. I left 0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:57.720 the house and I had put my shirt on inside 0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:04.480 out and was walking, uh with the tags hanging out 0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:06.480 of my my. 0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:07.800 Shirt, the Costco tags. 0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:11.520 It was a little it was a little embarrassing. So 0:05:11.560 --> 0:05:13.200 I had to pull off to the side and do 0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:16.440 the quick switch over, you know, the quick pretend like 0:05:16.440 --> 0:05:18.599 it didn't happen, you know. And then I'd walked by 0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:21.440 the same people that I know they noticed. How do 0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:23.960 you not notice that somebody's wearing their shirt inside out? 0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:25.800 Right, it's not as bad as the fur that was 0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:26.720 all over your clothes. 0:05:27.440 --> 0:05:31.039 Oh yeah, that was embarrassing. When the Queen's like, oh 0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:35.560 you you got a dog cat? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, So 0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:39.560 that was embarrassing. So I did that, and then the 0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:44.640 I mentioned it was the double whammie, So fine, whatever, 0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:46.960 that's minor a big deal. Wear your shirt inside out, 0:05:47.000 --> 0:05:51.200 you know who cares? So and after my walk is complete, 0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:54.040 I walked for several hours. I get back to the house, 0:05:54.080 --> 0:05:59.720 the Malor Mansion, and my my toe on my left foot. 0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:02.760 It feels a little like something's going on there, but 0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:05.880 I'm not sure what. I was like, well, that's probably nothing, 0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:08.600 you know, maybe I'm just imagining things. So I take 0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:10.960 my shoes off and then take the socks off. That's 0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:13.440 usually what happened. Shoes off, four socks. So I do 0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:21.920 all that and then I find whatever. And my number 0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:26.440 two toe on my left foot looks like it has 0:06:26.520 --> 0:06:31.160 grown a second toe. There is a giant blood blister 0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:34.400 the and I don't want to exaggerate, Danny, but it's 0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:39.680 the size of North Dakota. I mean, just filled with 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:41.719 goo and puss and blood. 0:06:41.960 --> 0:06:43.239 Well, thank you for the visual. 0:06:43.640 --> 0:06:47.600 Oh man, I get the biggest blisters and I got 0:06:47.640 --> 0:06:50.560 these new socks that it must be my shoes that 0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:53.760 are the problem. I must have the shoes. Now, do 0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:56.240 you get blisters of the shoes are too small or 0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:59.320 if they're too big, what is more likely to give 0:06:59.320 --> 0:06:59.880 you blisters? 0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:03.400 I'm pretty sure the smaller the shoe, the more friction 0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:04.200 it causes. 0:07:04.560 --> 0:07:07.159 Yeah, yeah, so that's what I'm thinking too, that my 0:07:07.240 --> 0:07:09.320 shoes are too too small. 0:07:09.360 --> 0:07:10.960 That your damn feet are still growing. 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:14.760 God, it's a blessing and a curse.

I felt like I was 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:33.680 accomplished in working out, and I felt pretty good about that. 0:07:33.960 --> 0:07:36.400 And then I looked at my toe. I was like, 0:07:36.480 --> 0:07:39.600 oh man, that is not that is not good. Now. 0:07:39.640 --> 0:07:41.520 The good thing, though, I will say about a blister, 0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:45.560 is you just pop that, right, You pop it, and 0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:48.680 then you drain it and then you're back there.

My family was 0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:26.200 very much shut the hell up, you're not allowed to whine. 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:29.600 In fact, my grandfather he coined the phrase, quit your 0:11:29.679 --> 0:11:35.679 damned winding, Cynthia, get your damned kids out of my garage. 0:11:35.720 --> 0:11:36.840 They're winding again. 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:39.480 That must be a grandfather, Mike. Mike, one of my 0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:42.800 grandfathers was the same man. We would raise a ruckus 0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:45.040 and he would just shoot us down right. 0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:47.960 Ay, dude, there were like all these menly men around 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:51.120 us who fought in wars, and yeah, you know they kick. 0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:55.240 The greatest generation they called it, yeah generation. 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:59.559 Yeah. My uh, my grandfather a former sergeant in the military, 0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:02.679 so he was up there in the ranks. With those 0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:04.800 kind of people around you. You grow up to not 0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:07.360 show a lot of emotions. I couldn't help it in 0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:10.040 this case. Thank god, my girl was the only one 0:12:10.040 --> 0:12:13.040 around who saw this baby koa he as I've said 0:12:13.040 --> 0:12:16.640 on a previous podcast, he says, da da da da. 0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:18.520 I even use it as a little drop now in 0:12:18.559 --> 0:12:24.120 the podcast. I Aha, doesn't matter if a brother, sister, 0:12:24.240 --> 0:12:27.360 siblings holding him. He's yelling about Dada. He wants to 0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:30.080 play with a pile of toys. Mom's trying to change them. 0:12:30.120 --> 0:12:32.439 He's yelling for dadak because he wants toys. He didn't 0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:35.000 want to wipey on his face. Leave me alone. He's 0:12:35.080 --> 0:12:37.800 want an air swab or a little baby toothbrush. Get that 0:12:37.840 --> 0:12:38.640 crap away from me. 0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:40.480 Da da da da. 0:12:40.520 --> 0:12:42.560 But it's just been a signal that he wants to 0:12:42.600 --> 0:12:45.160 play right now. He's never actually looked me in the 0:12:45.160 --> 0:12:50.160 eyes and spoken to me before until Saturday afternoon. He 0:12:50.480 --> 0:12:53.840 has a rubber remote control so that they don't have 0:12:53.920 --> 0:12:55.679 to take the one with germs on it and put 0:12:55.720 --> 0:12:57.199 that in their mouth. You give this to him to 0:12:57.200 --> 0:12:59.240 try to trick them, like, no, no, no, this is 0:12:59.320 --> 0:13:02.480 your remote, and it's made out of that real rubber, 0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:04.600 so that they can jab that thing in their mouth and. 0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:06.240 The delicious rubber. 0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:09.800 Yeah, bite their gums on it. Right. So I give 0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:13.520 him this blue fake remote. He throws it. He wants 0:13:13.559 --> 0:13:15.720 the real one. So while I'm not looking, he grabs 0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:20.040 the little firestick remote and puts it right to his mouth. 0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:23.280 I grab it away from him. He turns his head 0:13:23.520 --> 0:13:25.760 kind of to the side, looks me right in the 0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:27.480 eyes and says, dad. 0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:32.719 Dah, oh, I'm trying to negotiate. 0:13:33.840 --> 0:13:37.199 This to me. Finally got it. I finally got it 0:13:37.280 --> 0:13:40.840 to my mouth, and you're gonna take it away from me. Ben. 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:45.480 I melted like a baby. I mean, all right here, 0:13:45.520 --> 0:13:47.839 watch whatever you want, yeah, man, and you want to 0:13:47.880 --> 0:13:48.640 eat this remote? 0:13:48.640 --> 0:13:49.480 Okay? 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:52.520 Fine. But he that's the first time now that he's 0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:56.760 actually addressed me, you know, And unfortunately he was offended 0:13:56.760 --> 0:13:59.720 in this moment. But it was so damn cute that 0:13:59.840 --> 0:14:02.640 I see my wife crying and I'm like, oh god, 0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:06.600 now I know why parents turned mush around their little kids. 0:14:07.200 --> 0:14:10.040 That's great. Well, Dad, when you kept saying and he 0:14:10.160 --> 0:14:13.840 said that, I thought of Bam Bam from the Flinty Yeah, yeah, sure, 0:14:13.920 --> 0:14:17.760 he is like Bam Bam. Barney's Barney's kid, right, Barne's kidding. 0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:21.000 Yeah, very cool. 0:14:21.040 --> 0:14:23.440 So he's a very social young lad, right. He seems 0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:26.400 seems like he's pretty yeahitting up in his high chair 0:14:26.480 --> 0:14:27.760 so around everybody. 0:14:28.000 --> 0:14:31.240 Yeah, he's got a ton of personality. He's only got 0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:34.280 two modes. He's like his mom. He's either super happy 0:14:34.600 --> 0:14:40.120 or he's got a super resting babyface. He's either super 0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:41.720 happy or super pissed off. 0:14:42.160 --> 0:14:44.840 Yeah, and we have talked about this in previous episodes 0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:47.760 of this podcast. But the key is to have him 0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:49.800 watch a lot of football with you and a lot 0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:52.880 of sports with you before he gets on the TikTok 0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:55.560 and the social media and you know all that. Such. 0:14:55.840 --> 0:14:57.560 He ain't gonna let him go on social media. I'm 0:14:57.560 --> 0:14:59.200 gonna be throwing the nerf around with him in the 0:14:59.240 --> 0:14:59.720 front yard. 0:15:00.600 --> 0:15:03.000 But you got to get booked and then because otherwise 0:15:03.040 --> 0:15:05.400 he'll go off into like zombie mode and it'll be 0:15:05.480 --> 0:15:08.360 like the zombie Apocalypse and all that. 0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:10.560 I should mention to you. His favorite toys right now. 0:15:10.600 --> 0:15:14.000 His uncle gave him this little plush raider football. He 0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:17.240 loves that. Great. 0:15:17.280 --> 0:15:20.200 That's awesome though. How how was you know? How's it look? 0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:23.720 He is three and a half years No, I'm kidding, he's. 0:15:23.520 --> 0:15:26.400 Just turned thirty five. For finally looked at you. 0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:29.320 He yeah, he's seven and a half months old. 0:15:32.000 --> 0:15:35.520 This is kind of cool. I have a cameo. I'm 0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:38.400 not promoting it. I used to promote it, but I'm 0:15:38.440 --> 0:15:41.480 like whatever, it's there. If you're on cameo and you 0:15:41.560 --> 0:15:44.600 type my name in, it'll come up, and I'd love 0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:47.760 to do it. It's not free. It's a little video 0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:51.080 tribute thing, and so out of the blue, I had 0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:53.640 not got one of these in months, and a guy 0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:58.280 who's a fan of the show obviously tracked me down 0:15:58.320 --> 0:16:01.560 on cameo and wanted to little little video thing for 0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:04.000 his buddies. And I love this because he wanted me 0:16:04.040 --> 0:16:06.400 to bust balls. His friends were giving him a hard 0:16:06.400 --> 0:16:09.520 time for listening to the show, my show, so he's like, hey, 0:16:09.560 --> 0:16:12.160 you gotta set these guys straight. So he gave me 0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:14.800 a little intel and we had. We had a good time, 0:16:14.840 --> 0:16:16.280 so it was it was cool. I love I love 0:16:16.320 --> 0:16:19.440 those kind of things other than you know, Casey casem 0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:21.480 with the I'm sick and tired.

In the last couple 0:17:43.000 --> 0:17:45.639 of weeks.

Yeah, 0:19:29.520 --> 0:19:30.680 there you. 0:19:30.600 --> 0:19:34.320 Could speak Japanese and you did hit on their radio stations, 0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:35.199 but they let you go. 0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:37.440 It was funny because I talked to a buddy of 0:19:37.440 --> 0:19:39.600 mine who was actually he got bumped as well. The 0:19:39.640 --> 0:19:42.879 Dodgers spit a looge in his face as well. And uh, 0:19:42.920 --> 0:19:45.080 he had been doing that longer than I have.
