1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:01,480
Speaker 1: Cut booms.

2
00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 2: If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

4
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,520

00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as the

00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse.

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 1: Wow.

8
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 2: The clearing House of Hot takes break free for something special.

9
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 2: The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now.

10
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: In the air everywhere. The Fifth Hour with me Ben

Speaker 1: Mahllor normally Danny g Radio, but we've got Alex the

12
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,520
Speaker 1: Vegan who's hanging out with us here on this Saturday,

13
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 1: the sixteenth day of November. It is Guinness World Records

14
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 1: Day today, among other things. A bunch of dope holidays

15
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,200
Speaker 1: and all that as we slide in to a Saturday

16
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: and Alex the Vegan. Now, a couple of years back

17
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: in my radio sojourn, I attempted to set a Guinness

18
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: World Record that had all planned out in my head.

19
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: I was going to set a record on the radio,

20
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 1: and I contacted somebody at that company. This is a

21
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: long time ago. The Guinness World Records people EWR. They

22
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: have a book that comes out every year. They have

23
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: a website and all that stuff. So I reached out.

24
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: The books published in over one hundred countries, it's in

25
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,119
Speaker 1: twenty three languages. I was like, all right, I want

26
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 1: to set the record, and they said great. It was

27
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: something to do with the radio show. I forget exactly

28
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,839
Speaker 1: the specific record at the top of my head right now.

29
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: So I contacted them. I'm like, all right, here's what

30
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: I want to do, and they I said, that's great.

31
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: Here's how much you have to send us and for

32
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: us to count that as a record. So it's a

33
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: I understand they're a for profit business and all that,

34
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: but it is quite the hustle. It's not cheap alex

35
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: like the perception is this is like nicely wagers with friends.

36
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: It's then they're in it to make money. And yeah,

37
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: kind of sullied the whole Guinness Book of Records for me,

38
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: but it's one of the great great hustles of all time.

39
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, to be honest, here come pay and we'll make

40
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,239
Speaker 3: sure that you're the greatest in the world.

41
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll consider you the greatest all time. And it

42
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 1: goes back to a bar Bet right, the legendary story,

43
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: and then yeah, they've just been making money hand over

44
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: fist ever since then the quiz man. You got to

45
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:31,839
Speaker 1: do something like that. That's the key, you know, that's

46
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 1: the if you can find a way to convince people

47
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: to send you money for something they don't need to

48
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: send you on. Is there a better hustle in life

49
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: than that.

50
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 3: Ben, I could argue that's most things getting sent to

51
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 3: people's house if you really think about it.

52
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, the thing is, I was We've talked about

53
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: this on the podcast before, but the the phone and

54
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: you know, monthly payments, if you can get people to pay. Actually,

55
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: the gym is the greatest hustle because most people don't

56
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: use the gym, and they sign up for it with

57
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: great intentions and then they're embarrassed to get rid of

58
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 1: it because you know, if you get rid of it,

59
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: you got rid of the gym and maybe you'll start

60
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: tomorrow and all that. So it's like you, they shame

61
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,399
Speaker 1: you when really you can just go outside and work out.

62
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 1: You know, that's true. Sarely needed.

63
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 3: That's funny because I've been a gym head for almost

64
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 3: a decade now, Ben, And the thing that's the funniest

65
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 3: to me that you say that is like I call

66
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 3: them donators, like they're donating to the glorious House of

67
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 3: Gains so that the equipment is updated for myself and

68
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 3: other individuals. But it's true though, like when you say canceling,

69
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 3: there's so many like things you have to do, Like

70
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 3: you have to be in person, talk to a manager

71
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 3: at the gym. They don't let you do it over

72
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 3: the phone. It's not why you scumbacks. Now I have

73
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 3: to literally go to the gym, and I didn't want to,

74
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 3: you know, like it's it's actually funny.

75
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: And the other two I've noticed is like I've seen

76
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: it and I do go to the gym, not as

77
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: much during football season because I'm so this is a

78
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: busy time of the year and it's not great but

79
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: still paying even though I'm not using the gym as much.

80
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: But I've seen people try to cancel. And it's not

81
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: only do they you have to show up, but then

82
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: when you show up, they give you the sales pitch. Well,

83
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: let me let me see if I can cut your

84
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: monthly feet Yes, yes, and we'll work out a deal.

85
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: And I don't know about that. Uh hey, I did

86
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: want to mention though. On this the Saturday Show, we

87
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: had Eddie on yesterday, and it was great to catch

88
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: up with my guy Eddie. And it's been a wild

89
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: ride for the for everyone involved here over the last

90
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: couple of days last week or so. You were not

91
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: even in the building, Alex, Alex, you were. You were

92
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: away when the madness happened. I was. I was technically

93
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: away too, I was in in Kansas City. We will

94
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: have the Mallard travelogue coming up, which is always a

95
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,480
Speaker 1: fan favorite, unless it's not. And don't forget. I didn't

96
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: want to sully my conversation with Eddie on yesterday's pot

97
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,559
Speaker 1: so I did not over the top pour myself out

98
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 1: to tell you to watch Benny Versus the Penny Man.

99
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 1: So I'll do that today. I'll do that today. I

100
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,599
Speaker 1: didn't want to, you know, it was Eddie's time. It

101
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: was his opportunities. I didn't want to sit here and say,

102
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: but by the way, Eddie, watch my TV show. I

103
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: didn't want to do that. But there is a TV

104
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: show us on today. It's a bowl of cherries. Now,

105
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 1: you eat a bowl of cherries, right, You eat a

106
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: lot of fruits and vegetables.

107
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 3: Oh, every rising bend, every rising.

108
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, anytime I see a vegetable product at FSR. I

109
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 1: assume it's yours. I assume it's because nobody else really

110
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,559
Speaker 1: eats vegetables other than you. There is anybody, Yeah, yeah,

111
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: there's may be one other person that likes the veggies.

112
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: But and I don't even know if you like them.

113
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: I think you just eat them. I don't know that

114
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: you enjoy it.

115
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 3: I think I've learned to love them. Actually you sure

116
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 3: about that? Yeah, no, I'm lying to myself.

117
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: If you pour sauce on them or something like that,

118
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: some people pull like barbecue sauce on them.

119
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 3: You know what I've found, Ben is so good with

120
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 3: vegetables because I'm really good. Me and my lady, we

121
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 3: do a lot of these veggie stir fries and everything.

122
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 3: The favorite we do is curry. For some reason, the

123
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,479
Speaker 3: curry taste with the secret ingredient I called vegeta, which

124
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 3: you can get from like a world market. It's from Croatia.

125
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 3: Those two together it's like ranch on pizza, hot sauce

126
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 3: on a taco. It's just, oh, it's so good and

127
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 3: just you can use anything. You can do. Cabbage, you

128
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 3: can do, some eggplant, throw and some sauce, had onions,

129
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,920
Speaker 3: maybe even sprinkle some marugel in there. There's so many

130
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 3: fun ideas you can do. I've just found it about

131
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 3: spicing it up the way that your palette likes the most.

132
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 3: That's been my biggest thing.

133
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 1: All Right, Well, if you love curriy, shouldn't you go

134
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:25,919
Speaker 1: to like India?

135
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,359
Speaker 3: I do love Indian food. And if I went to India,

136
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 3: I might not come back.

137
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: You just moved there. You'd be like that hippie guy.

138
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you know. I actually met a couple of

139
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 1: months ago a buddy of mine from radio who actually

140
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: worked at Fox Sports Radio. His brother. It was it

141
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: was a funeral, unfortunately, his brother flew out to be

142
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: at the funeral obviously, and he was a He was

143
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,599
Speaker 1: a listener of mine when I was younger and we

144
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:59,239
Speaker 1: were all younger, and he was wearing the traditional Indian garb,

145
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: I guess in certain part like a religious thing. And

146
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: he had moved He's from the States, but he moved

147
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: to India, uh, you know, years ago and was fully

148
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 1: immersed in the culture in India. And it was pretty

149
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: pretty crazy. I mean it was it was wild because he's,

150
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 1: you know, just like a regular dude from so Cal

151
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: or whatever. And yeah, he's like and he's a little

152
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: older than I am, which means for you, he's probably

153
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: really really old. Yeah, and uh, you know, it was

154
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: just kind of hipster, kind of like my guy that

155
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: calls my show weed Man hippie. Yes, if he moved

156
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: to India, that's kind of the whole vibe, uh, that

157
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: that I got. But but anyway, the TV show Benny

158
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: Versus the Penny, It's on nationally on Peacock. It's on

159
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: a regional cable TV all over the place, including the

160
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: Hub NBC Sports Boston made its debut on Friday, also

161
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: San Francisco, Philadelphia, all over the place. In fact, I

162
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: spent last weeknd on a whirlwind trip to Cansau City.

163
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: We opened up shop. We had a Mallard meet and

164
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: greet of the Mallard travelog. But I learned the TV

165
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: show is on cable TV in Kansas. I did not

166
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: know that. They don't even tell me, Alex.

167
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 3: Why you're on the show.

168
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: I'm on my name. I think my name is on

169
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 1: the show. I believe it is. And I don't even

170
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: know where the show's on. I have no idea because

171
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 1: the guys were coming up to me, He's like, yeah,

172
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: it's on you local cable TV here in Kansas City,

173
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: and I had not heard that before. I thought, well,

174
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: we're not on there, We're just on Peacock, But apparently

175
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: we are on there, so that was kind of cool.

176
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: So the Mallard travelogu, which is the travelogue of record Alex,

177
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: not to be confused with some other travel log this

178
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 1: is the one that matters more. Okay, so we'll go

179
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,840
Speaker 1: back to the hot tup time machine. We're gonna set

180
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: it to the the week prior. This is hot Off

181
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 1: the presses, Hot Off the Presses. So you know this

182
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: a little bit because you know, I run into you

183
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 1: in the hallways ships passing the night at Fox Sports Radio.

184
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 1: But during the week, because of everything that the overnight

185
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 1: hours and the TV thing, I don't get a lot

186
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 1: of sleep at the end of the week. The beginning

187
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 1: of the week, I get a decent, honest sleep, but at

188
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,839
Speaker 1: the end of the week not so much. But I

189
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: don't let my enthusiasm wain I try not. Maybe it does.

190
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 1: So I didn't get much sleep last week Wednesday into

191
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: Thursday because that's TV day, so I don't get my

192
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 1: sleep that day. And then Thursday and Friday we did

193
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 1: the overnight show. I then chilled out for a bit.

194
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: I then had to do the fifth hour podcast, which

195
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: is fine, I'm not planning. And then it was off

196
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: to the airport or plane strands and automobiles and headed

197
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 1: over to first flight from Sokal to Salt Lake City. Now,

198
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 1: I've never even been to the airport at Salt Lake

199
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 1: City and stopped over there and nice airport, clean air

200
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 1: remind me of the airport. And in Detroit, I'm a

201
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 1: big airport guy, Alex. Really, yeah, I don't know, you

202
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: fly a fair amount.

203
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 3: I don't really fly a lot, But it's more so like,

204
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 3: I don't know how you can get over this. How

205
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 3: do you get over the fact you're sitting thirty five

206
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 3: thousand feet in the air in a metal tube. It

207
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,719
Speaker 3: kind of just messes with my brain a little bit.

208
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, was that at all for you?

209
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 2: Or no?

210
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: Nah?

211
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 3: Really?

212
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: Whatever?

213
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 3: You know, I trips me out.

214
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 1: The safest form of travel is.

215
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 3: Air travel, right right. I have nothing against a safety,

216
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 3: It's just I don't know. For some reason, I'm sitting

217
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 3: there and I'm like, I'm sitting in a metal tube

218
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 3: flying at however fast thousands of miles per hour. Just

219
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 3: it's like a brain warp thing. You know, it's like

220
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 3: flying without wings just kind of a it's a weird

221
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 3: thing for me. I don't not explaining.

222
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: Are you like John Madden the old broadcaster where you

223
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: just don't want to fly at all?

224
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 3: You're like, no, I don't mind flying, like it's I

225
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 3: think it's like I can do it because you know,

226
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 3: like the end goal is something that you want to

227
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 3: experience or travel to. Yeah, but I think it's like

228
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 3: I knowingly know if I jumped off a building, I

229
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 3: can't fly, so like doing that trips me out. But

230
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,439
Speaker 3: I can walk right, I can run, so a car

231
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,560
Speaker 3: doesn't get me as much. Does that make any sense?

232
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: Like would you like to wear a parachute when you're

233
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 1: in the plane?

234
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 3: That would be awesome. You would like to do a

235
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 3: little bit more reassuring. I think, you know, like kind

236
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 3: of a diaper in a day that you don't think

237
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 3: you can make to the bathroom.

238
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 1: It's akin to a boat, and you probably swim right soon.

239
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: You know how to swim, But if you're out in

240
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: the middle of the Atlantic and you fall off a boat,

241
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 1: you're probably not gonna be able to swim to shore.

242
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 3: Probably not, you know, what I mean.

243
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know she bring up like a paddle boat, right.

244
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 3: Yeah.

245
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 1: Anyway, So I was at the airport in Salt Lake

246
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: and good airport. Now, the way I judge airports, there's

247
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: three things. Most important is clean bathrooms and a lot

248
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 1: of them. Right, That's the most important cause you're changing

249
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 1: planes and all that stuff. You want to have clean bathroom.

250
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: So that's the most important obviously. Then lower down is cleanliness,

251
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:57,959
Speaker 1: right just in general. You know, some of these older

252
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: airports are dirty and all that. And then because my

253
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: wife likes to explore the different culinary options, it's food

254
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 1: at the air really. Yeah. I never before I met her,

255
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: I never would get food at the airport because I

256
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: was let's get you know, wait till I get where

257
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 1: I want to get and I'll eat or whatever. But

258
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: she's always like trying different things at airports and things

259
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: like that. So, uh, this the Salt Lake Airport reminded

260
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: me of Detroit. Very long terminal clean bathrooms though very clean,

261
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 1: very and the airport in general is very clean. And

262
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 1: they had a lot of announcements on the PA system

263
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 1: Alex like, hey, you know, if you if you lost

264
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 1: your keys at Gate three, come see so and so

265
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: very polite.

266
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 3: I like that.

267
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: That's nice, right, yeah, you know, and people leave all

268
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: kinds of crap at the airport. The amount of things

269
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,720
Speaker 1: that are left at the airport will blow your mind

270
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: because everyone's in a hurry. They're usually tired, disheveled, and

271
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 1: and all that lay over a yeah, Leo, but changing

272
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:06,079
Speaker 1: planes and then but going through security of course, which

273
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know about you, but for me,

274
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 1: having lived in a pre nine to eleven world, yeah, yeah,

275
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 1: every time I go to the airport, I know, Wow,

276
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 1: this is a little much.

277
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 3: No, like a lot of this I think is just

278
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 3: theater it has. It is for sure thousand percent.

279
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 1: Not needed per se as much.

280
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 3: Full body scan, shoes and socks off, take your belt off,

281
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,680
Speaker 3: go through this one, have this scanned padded down here.

282
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 3: It's like, dude, why was it before pre like you said,

283
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 3: nine to eleven, I could bring a knife and a

284
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 3: steak on a plane and they just be like high

285
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 3: five and you're like, hey, oh you're you're almost laying

286
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:37,439
Speaker 3: in that well.

287
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: For years it was just have you always had your

288
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 1: bags and your possession. That was always that you know,

289
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 1: no one else has touched your bag. Yeah, they'd ask

290
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 1: you a couple of questions and then that was that.

291
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: And then obviously the world changed and we're still a

292
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 1: generation later, still feeling the after effects of that. So anyway,

293
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 1: got to Salt Lake, then changed planes, got to cant

294
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:05,959
Speaker 1: the city. Relatively smooth flight. Uh. They were from Kansas

295
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 1: City to or from from Salt Lake to Kansas City.

296
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,680
Speaker 1: A little turbulence, a little bit of a bumpy ride.

297
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 1: I had some snacks whatever, but was actually I didn't

298
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 1: eat the snacks. I saved them because I was fasting.

299
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 1: But I was able to use the plane Wi Fi.

300
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 1: We didn't ask ben, which is where I basically just

301
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 1: killed time answer questions. I did it on Facebook. People

302
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 1: are much nicer on Facebook than they.

303
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 3: Are on older crowd.

304
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a good, good crowd, very polite. Uh. Got

305
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: to Kansas City and picked up the old rental and

306
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 1: headed right over to the hotel. We had to drop

307
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 1: our bags off. Didn't want to leave our bags in

308
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: the car. You don't want to You don't want to

309
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: get to a city and the first thing have happened,

310
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: somebody smash it at the windows and take your bags.

311
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: I'm going to try to avoid that so I did

312
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 1: want to thank Tammy from the west In for the

313
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 1: Welcome to Kansas City gift bag. Very very cool.

314
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 3: Oh that's cool.

315
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got to the hotel, got upgraded at the

316
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: hotel and I didn't have to pay anybody off, just

317
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: upgraded our hotel room at a view of the skyline.

318
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 1: Oh beautiful of Kansas City in the hotel was awesome.

319
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: And then immediately we just dropped our bags off and

320
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 1: headed over to the Casey Joe's, which is my favorite

321
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: barbecue plays. I love Casey Joe's awesome and of course,

322
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: how can you go wrong with barbecue? And but you

323
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: might you don't strike me as a barbecue guy.

324
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 3: I'm really not to be honest with you.

325
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 1: You're not. Wow. Is that because it's meat? And yeah,

326
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 1: it's like a vegan and you.

327
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 3: Know, I will say, sometimes Ben, my hair is let down,

328
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 3: so there may or may not be some carneis sat

329
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 3: over once in a blue moon. But I will say,

330
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 3: the whole concept of a grill, it's just like the

331
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 3: whole meat aspect to it, which you can get away

332
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 3: with some fun stuff like have you ever tried grilling

333
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 3: like slices of pineapple?

334
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 1: Ben? Uh? No, not really.

335
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 3: Oh my lady put me onto that ben that is delectable, delectable.

336
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 3: Oh then you cut like kalapenos in half, put some

337
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 3: cream cheese and some cheese inside of them, or maybe

338
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 3: even like some beets you want to get like, you know,

339
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 3: kind of crazy and moving the dolls. Yeah, yeah, that's

340
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 3: what I mean. It's just like the stigma behind it.

341
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 3: Barbecue is a meat thing, right, it is, and probably

342
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 3: and this is one thing.

343
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 1: And I don't know if my wife wants me says,

344
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: but she did not enjoy the Kansas City barbecue because

345
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: he's well, she's used to barbecue sauce, and the thing

346
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: about places like Kansas City and Texas and in Carolina.

347
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: My experience with that barbecue is properly made barbecue. You

348
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 1: don't need a lot of sauce, right, because it's the

349
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: way you cook it and all that. But I've not

350
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: done a lot of the veggies, like on a vegan

351
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 1: So anyway, we went there. This it's called the z

352
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: Man sandwich. It's a barbecue brisket sandwich with an onion

353
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: ring on top. And thanks to the malor the thing

354
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,679
Speaker 1: we did on the plane, the ass bend thing, one

355
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 1: of the guys said, hey, when you go there, you

356
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 1: know the veteran move savvy, get the jumbo size. I

357
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:14,719
Speaker 1: didn't even know they had the jumbo side. Last time

358
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 1: I was there. They didn't have it years ago. It

359
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: was like we're ten years ago. So this place was

360
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 1: so popular on Friday night, probably around by the time

361
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: we got there. We got there around six thirty, had

362
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:33,679
Speaker 1: a forty five minute wait online outside of case Joe's

363
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 1: Wow to get a brisket sandwich. And it was very

364
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 1: chilly at night. Now it's not fully ridiculously cold in

365
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 1: Kansas City yet because it's it's only November. That'll be

366
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 1: coming in February, but it was cold for somebody that

367
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: was used to the weather and socoal. So I froze

368
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:58,439
Speaker 1: my balls off waiting online. And so then we we

369
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: stopped by this store called Harley Hustle. My wife looked

370
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 1: it up and I needed a sweater, Okay, so I, uh,

371
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 1: you know, because it's chili for me. So I went

372
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: out and got the hoodie that I might have seen

373
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: the photos some of your follow me on Facebook or

374
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: whatever and Instagram. There were a bunch of photos and

375
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: I was wearing this hoodie and that's where I got

376
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 1: it from. And then on Saturday morning, as we continued

377
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: the Mallard travel like very early wake up call, my

378
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 1: friend Bob Fesco, he is the morning show Alex on

379
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 1: ninety six point five, the fan in canz City City. Yeah,

380
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 1: they just moved from AM to FM beautiful and he

381
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,439
Speaker 1: his lovely wife picked me up at the hotel. My

382
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 1: wife was busy and we went on our merry way.

383
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 1: I saw all the cool spots around Kansas City. They

384
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 1: showed me the old train station where they still still

385
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: an active train station where they have the chief Super

386
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: Bowl rallies. Also every February, it's like tradition. The Chiefs

387
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: win every I know you're not a sports guy, but

388
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: they went every year.

389
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 3: Okay.

390
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:10,679
Speaker 1: And there's a massive World War One memorial no kidding,

391
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,919
Speaker 1: that overlooks the city. And now I'm told by Bob

392
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: that that is the official for the entire United States.

393
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 1: That is the national World War One Memorial.

394
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:22,679
Speaker 3: Wow, no kidding.

395
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 1: Now, I don't know why it's in Kansas City. Yeah, why,

396
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, but it's it's right on top of

397
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 1: a hill overlooking the city, the city center of Kansas City.

398
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 1: It's pretty cool went over to state Line Road. Now

399
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 1: state Line Road we can't really experience that where we

400
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 1: are here in California because we're so far away from everything.

401
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 1: But state Line Road is where you if you drive

402
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: in the middle of the road, which we did not

403
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,919
Speaker 1: supposed to do. You were half of you is in

404
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,719
Speaker 1: Kansas and half of you is in Missouri. Yeah, it's

405
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: the same time. And so yeah, that's places like in

406
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 1: New England. If you've been around, I know you went

407
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 1: back to you were in Pennsylvania, right, yes, yes, what

408
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 1: part of Pennsylvania were you?

409
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,520
Speaker 3: Leechburg, Pennsylvania?

410
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: Is that south north?

411
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 3: That's more I'd say east. And it's a very small town.

412
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 3: Like if you think about our studio bend here from

413
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 3: here to El Poile Loco, that's their downtown. Like that's

414
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 3: it's just one street of like twenty shops. It was incredible.

415
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 1: Is it near Pittsburgh? Yes?

416
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:35,719
Speaker 3: Yes, So now we're from Pittsburgh, I remember.

417
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, so you if you go a little

418
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 1: south of there, you'll go down to like West Virginia

419
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 1: or High Yes, okay, that kind of thing in that

420
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 1: in that area. But you drove about out here nothing

421
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,440
Speaker 1: and so we drove. I was half half in Kansas

422
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 1: and half in Kansas City. And this is one of

423
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 1: the cool things for those that haven't been to Kansas City,

424
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 1: is you're literally in and out of Kansas and Missouri.

425
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,440
Speaker 1: Because there's Kansas City, Kansas, and there's Kansas City, Missouri,

426
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:10,520
Speaker 1: and their sister cities. They're separated by train tracks and

427
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 1: like driving around to be like one minute, welcome to

428
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: Kansas and then you're right back in Missouri, and then

429
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: you're back. And it's very oh wow, very odd the

430
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 1: way they did that. Also, the fun I saw, Now

431
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,199
Speaker 1: you don't know who this is, George Brett. He's an

432
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 1: old baseball player. When I was a kid, went by

433
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 1: his house Len Dawson, who died a couple of years ago,

434
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 1: but he had a mansion. We drove by there, just

435
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: random random things. Len Dawson's famous because he's an NFL legend.

436
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 1: But one of the all time amazing photos was Len

437
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 1: Dawson during halftime of Super Bowl One against the Green

438
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:55,120
Speaker 1: Bay Packers. Len Dawson found himself down fourteen to ten

439
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 1: for the Chiefs, and so what did he do? He

440
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 1: fired up a six a cigarette and had a bottle

441
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,159
Speaker 1: of Fresco. That's a that's a soft drink, not an

442
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 1: alcoholic beverage. But it was actually discontinued during the pandemic.

443
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 1: But you know this photo, he's in uniform smoking a

444
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: cigarette at halftime of the.

445
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:18,479
Speaker 3: Super Bowl iconic.

446
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 1: It is a great photo. And then we went over

447
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 1: to the landing. We had the Mallard meat greet, which

448
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,199
Speaker 1: was wonderful. I was a little nervous because you never know,

449
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,680
Speaker 1: I've done a lot of these over the years, and

450
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 1: I get no backing from from the company, so it's

451
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:36,640
Speaker 1: all me. You know, some of the shows go out,

452
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 1: they were sponsored by you know, hotel chain and a

453
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 1: lot of promotion. I get none. I get there's no

454
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 1: there's no promotion. There's no billboards or anything like that,

455
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 1: no commercials. So I never know who's gonna show up.

456
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 1: It's just me begging people to show up, and it's

457
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: always hit and miss.

458
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 3: Okay.

459
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 1: Now, usually we do pretty well, but there have been

460
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 1: times where have been few people to show up. Sometimes

461
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 1: it doesn't work out. And it was very important because

462
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 1: it would have been the words I'll use is a

463
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:09,359
Speaker 1: masculating if I had traveled spent my weekend traveling to

464
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:14,120
Speaker 1: Kansas City and like nobody showed up. Gosh right, right,

465
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 1: that would have been very, very tough. Now, fortunately that

466
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,959
Speaker 1: was not the case. We had a relatively I consider

467
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: packed house. It was one of the bigger ones that

468
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: we've done, these Mallard meet and greets, and I knew

469
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:31,919
Speaker 1: right away, Alex Levegan that it was going to be

470
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 1: a good day when I walked in. Okay, the first

471
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: thing I heard was a voice I didn't recognize saying,

472
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 1: go to hell Bill Miller.

473
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:40,920
Speaker 3: Stop.

474
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, first thing I heard from the back of the room, right,

475
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: and it was the the guy named Elk on the air.

476
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 1: He's kind of known as Elk Greco. He's contributed on

477
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 1: social media, and he yelled out, go to hell, Bill Miller.

478
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: And so that was great. And met a bunch of

479
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 1: people and I'm gonna try to remember as many as

480
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: I can, and I'm gonna miss most. I admit that

481
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna miss most. But among those that I did

482
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 1: come across, we had Nick and was in in Nebraska.

483
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:10,959
Speaker 2: Uh.

484
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 1: He came down with his son. Now. The cool thing

485
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 1: about this, Alex, his kid was a kid caller, like no, yeah,

486
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:22,360
Speaker 1: and now he's in college.

487
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 3: Oh my god.

488
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's going to Nebraska. Wow, happens fast. He goes

489
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,640
Speaker 1: to the University of Nebraska. It's pretty crazy, right man.

490
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:34,919
Speaker 3: People are growing up on your show, Ben.

491
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 1: It has happened. That's insane. Happened that Nick's a maleman

492
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 1: in in Nebraska. No, kiddill me is his story and

493
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: stuff and pretty cool. He likes when I say the

494
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 1: great unwashed, he said. He told me he did not

495
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 1: take a shower because he wanted to make sure that

496
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: that I smelled him. When there's very very nice, good,

497
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: good situation, there a loss in now. This guy he's

498
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 1: from Trenton, Missouri, which is a small town in Missouri,

499
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: probably ninety miles or so, he said, from from Kansas City.

500
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: And he dragged his girlfriend and they both worked at

501
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: a radiator factory in Missouri. They make radiators all night,

502
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: no kidding, Yeah, And he came down to hang out

503
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: Christopher in Kansas City. Was there the legendary JD In

Speaker 1: At this point, he is Wow. Now we've had Salsa,

510
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,639
Speaker 1: but Salsa is a flight attendant. So when Saul comes in,

511
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: it's like it's a lot of travel, but he gets

512
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 1: like discount right, right, But this guy's just driving around

513
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 1: the country to come hang out with Wow. Would you

514
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 1: ever do that for anyone? Oh?

515
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 3: For you've been absolutely absolutely for you.

516
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,639
Speaker 1: You're lying, But was there anyone in media that you

517
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 1: you know? I know you Over the years, You've you've evolved,

518
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 1: You've done a lot of different things. Back in the day, yes,

519
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:26,360
Speaker 1: you're involved in that as today.

520
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,879
Speaker 3: No, No, it got too popular for me. Like whenever

521
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 3: things get trendy, I move on to something better and

522
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,400
Speaker 3: found more kind of wholeness in this whole self help

523
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,360
Speaker 3: and helping people elevate their perspective on things like when

524
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 3: you and I had that whole deep dive about the

525
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 3: ocean and everything like that, like the coast to coast

526
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,200
Speaker 3: that's my forte now I love that.

527
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 1: That's right. Yes, all right, So, but back when you

528
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 1: were really big into anime, maybe you would have traveled

529
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 1: far to a convention.

530
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 3: Hmmm, that's a fun question. Yeah, So I've actually been

531
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 3: hosting a lot of these. I get offered the position

532
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,680
Speaker 3: to be like the main MC and stuff. So I've

533
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 3: always went to different places, whether it be Vegas or

534
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 3: again Pittsburgh where we got invited to stay at a

535
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 3: fans house to do the show live and stuff. So

536
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 3: I've definitely traveled like that. But it's funny you mentioned

537
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 3: that I've never went myself out of my way to

538
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,199
Speaker 3: something for my fandom though, Like I'm actually realizing that

539
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 3: I've never done that just for the excitement, Like the

540
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 3: most I've done, Ben, and it's just because you know,

541
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 3: I'm the hippie that if I moved to India, I

542
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 3: become the Dali Lama. I've done trips for like national things,

543
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,399
Speaker 3: right National Parks reserves or the Grand Canyon. When I

544
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,880
Speaker 3: went for my birthday over August, i drove out there.

545
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 3: That kind of stuff I'll do, but never for like

546
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:37,880
Speaker 3: anybody in media or anything like that. I've never been

547
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 3: that type.

548
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 1: And I'm not. When I was growing up, the only

549
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 1: thing I did that I recall was Howard Stern. I

550
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,679
Speaker 1: was in like high school and he had a book

551
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: signing in Pasadena.

552
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 3: Oh well, that's cool.

553
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 1: But it wasn't. I didn't travel to New York or Boston.

554
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, in.

555
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 1: SoCal and imp out overnight.

556
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 3: No you didn't.

557
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 1: I did. But the thing about it was that the

558
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: people that were there didn't really care. They just wanted

559
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: a party.

560
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:09,879
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you know.

561
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,360
Speaker 1: So there was a lot of debauchery that was going

562
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 1: on and people didn't care about. They were in the

563
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 1: line to get autographs from Stern, but they didn't really care.

564
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: But it was an interesting night. It was that there

565
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 1: was a Border's books on I don't even think it's

566
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: still there on Colorado Boulevard in Passow and spent the

567
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 1: night there. But JT's great. He's awesome, great guy from

568
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 1: the Midwest. Lives in Knoxville, Tennessee now and I'm bonding

569
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 1: with him because of that. Now, another great story of

570
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 1: this guy, Jase Jace was not able to make it

571
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: to the Malla meet greet. He was at a state

572
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 1: cross country meet in Columbia, Missouri, the home of the

573
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 1: University of Missouri. And he's such a big fan of

574
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:55,760
Speaker 1: the show that he sent his parents to represent him.

575
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 3: You're kidding me? How awesome is that?

576
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: That is? Epic? Is that great? Ah? Now, Jason. He

577
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: couldn't make it. He had to be at the cross

578
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 1: country meet and he was unfortunate scheduling staff. And he

579
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: did tell me on social media that he was able

580
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 1: to get his parents hooked on the show. So it's

581
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 1: not like they didn't listen to the show. But still

582
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 1: they did it for him.

583
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 3: That's impressive.

584
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 1: And they did. They didn't mention to me. They're like, well,

585
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 1: our son could make it, and you know, we wanted

586
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 1: to represent and all that stuff, and so his mom,

587
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 1: mom had told me. So it was really it was

588
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 1: really neat. It was really it made me feel very warm.

589
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 3: You should, Ben, that's like an old distinguished honor. It's

590
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 3: like the household of the family. You know, like I

591
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 3: couldn't make it, but I sent my father and money

592
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 3: to attend you, you know, to represent Shade. You know,

593
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 3: like that's so cool.

594
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 1: Actually it was. It was. It was really neat. Yeah,

595
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 1: it was. It was great. Ronnie was there. Ronnie works

596
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 1: all night making bullets, that's his job making. But he

597
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 1: tell he told me, he talked about he said that

598
00:29:56,240 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 1: there there are so many bullets around they just dropped floor.

599
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: They make no Yeah, I can only imagine what that

600
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: would look like the bullet factory insane. But Ronnie was

601
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 1: really cool. Had a big chief shirt on. I mentioned

602
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: No Greco, who's, by the way, looks like kind of

603
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 1: a hippie guy but a dentist about that. What, Yeah,

604
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: he looks like, you know, kind of like he's a

605
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 1: free spirit but he's ad No, does he have long hair? Yeah?

606
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 1: Long hair?

607
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 3: Wow. Maybe that's the secret code, Ben, because do you

608
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 3: remember how they always say like dentists are one of

609
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 3: the top positions that are the most depressing because nobody's

610
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,239
Speaker 3: happy to go to the dentist or anything like that.

611
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 3: Maybe he found like the secret way of just being

612
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 3: like free, easy and unconditional loving, like, oh, your cavity

613
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 3: is here, but my hair is here to stay, you know,

614
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 3: Like that's kind of a cool mantra.

615
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, he hasn't. Really, he's the guy that yelled

616
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: out you go to hell, Bill Millers. Yeah. Yeah, it

617
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 1: was so cool. Yeah, it was really neat, and so

618
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 1: I mean there was just in general. We had Darryl

619
00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 1: who came down from the Ozarks with his pops and

620
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 1: they brought me a as a gift, and you know,

621
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 1: several guys brought me gifts at Ozarks high School Laker

622
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: baseball jersey. Oh, talk about random And now Darryl did

623
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 1: this because he knows I loathe the Lakers. I hate

624
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 1: the Lakers. And he said, listen, all right, this is

625
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 1: a way that you can be a Laker fan without

626
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: being a fan of the Lakers. You can be a

627
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 1: fan of the high school here in the Ozarks, which

628
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: he said finished number one in the state of Missouri

629
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: two years ago. And I want you to know, Alex,

630
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 1: that's big news.

631
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 3: That's huge.

632
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: Number one baseball team entire state of Missouri two years ago.

633
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 2: Wow.

634
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: And I own a jersey. Stop it not you. I

635
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 1: have the jersey in my possession. It's here at the

636
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 1: Malor mansion. Also, a couple ups drivers stop by. They

637
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 1: came down. I don't know if I mentioned JD in

638
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 1: Kansas City Jeopardy Al who was at the last Mallor

639
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 1: meet we did. He works the day shift. Now. Now,

640
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: the craziest moment, by far, I would say, was Chris

641
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: the Chef. Now, Chris the Chef called us up a

642
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 1: couple of years back from the hospital and he was

643
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 1: going into surgery. He thought he might die. He was scared,

644
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 1: he was lonely and he called us up and we

645
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 1: talked to him for a little bit on the radio,

646
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 1: and then that was it. He went away and we

647
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 1: didn't know really what had happened. So I saw Chris

648
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 1: and he's had many medical problems. He's on disability now.

649
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 1: But he called us up from what he thought was

650
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 1: his deathbed and he's still up and kicking. And he

651
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 1: told me the reason he believes he's still alive is

652
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 1: because of what what do you think it is?

653
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 3: Probably that radio call? Huh?

654
00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:00,960
Speaker 1: Well, not necessarily that, No, but a malor meet and

655
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 1: greet we did no last one. In Kansas City, he

656
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:08,480
Speaker 1: ran into a guy named Doc Mike. Okay, you got

657
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 1: the doc. Doc Mike is one of my crazy callers,

658
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: Okay from Chicago, and he's into alternative medicine.

659
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 3: My type of guy.

660
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: You're kind of guy. Yes, he loves to drink his

661
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: own piss.

662
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 3: I'd be lying if I said I haven't tried that.

663
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 1: You've tried that I have. Yeah, did it change your

664
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 1: life in amazing ways?

665
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 3: I definitely made my stomach feel like it was going

666
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 3: to turn over it the first time. It was a

667
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 3: lot to process.

668
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 1: What about the getting it into your stomach process, which

669
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:38,240
Speaker 1: I think would be the hardest.

670
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's probably the mental thing that I've told

671
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 3: you about knowing about for example, flying in a metal

672
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 3: tube and air. For me, it was like the concept

673
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 3: of Okay, I'm gonna drink this, but I need to

674
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 3: drink this, So it was more so like I don't know. Again,

675
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 3: back to full circle with all this the vegetable thing,

676
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 3: it's just once I know the purpose behind it and

677
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 3: I've decided I do it, and so I can muster

678
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 3: the strength through it, and it's just that initial taste

679
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,040
Speaker 3: where your brain is like, oh this usually goes out

680
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,879
Speaker 3: and how it's coming in. So it does throw you off,

681
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 3: but I think, like anything like drinking ginger shots or whatever,

682
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 3: eventually it does get easier. But I'm telling you, Ben,

683
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 3: for anybody who has ever tried it, and maybe he

684
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 3: knows too, that first time it sits in your stomach,

685
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,240
Speaker 3: it's such a wild It's like an Aaron Rodgers darkness

686
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 3: retreat cleansing thing. It's incredible how much it cleans you well.

687
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 1: Now that you've told me I don't need to do it,

688
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:33,359
Speaker 1: because you've told me I know everything about it, you're

689
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 1: very well go well for me, I a lot of

690
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:37,919
Speaker 1: foods I will not eat because just getting it into

691
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: your stomach, Like, yeah, the one I ate the most

692
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:44,719
Speaker 1: disgusting thing the Rocky Mountain oysters a couple of years ago,

693
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 1: and that the oyster stuff that we had was just

694
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 1: thinking about what it was. Yeah, it was very tough

695
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:54,919
Speaker 1: for me to get that into the body. Very different. Yeah,

696
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 1: I was mental. Uh who I mentioned some ups guys

697
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:02,439
Speaker 1: were there. I'm not sure who almost Andy Reid. Now

698
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:10,360

Speaker 2: Really.

701
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: The guy is actually an opera singer. He sings at

702
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:21,359
Speaker 1: the big opera house that Yeah, and he's a guy

703
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,279
Speaker 1: that he showed up. I wanted to make sure he

704
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 1: was there. I told my friend Bob, I said, listen, Bob,

705
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:29,240
Speaker 1: we need to get almost Andy Reid there. And Andy

706
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 1: is the almost Andy Reid guy is Actually he looks

707
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 1: so much like Andy Reid that he's been in those

708
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 1: you know, those state farm commercials. Yes, yes, he's been

709
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:40,240
Speaker 1: in them with Andy Reid.

710
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 3: There's no way.

711
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he's got a national commercial because of that.

712
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 1: But my friend Bob Fesco, the Morning Guy, found him

713
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 1: on a remote he showed up to a remote that

714
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 1: they did and Bob said, you look just like Andy Reid.

715
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,319
Speaker 1: And the guy has embraced it. He dresses like him.

716
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 1: You know, where's the outfit and all that stuff has

717
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:06,720
Speaker 1: has the same facial hair and yeah, it's like wow,

718
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:07,880
Speaker 1: it's like he's his twin.

719
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:08,880
Speaker 2: You know.

720
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 1: There is that that theory that everyone has an identical

721
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,319
Speaker 1: twin in the world, even if you weren't born with

722
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 1: that person. That's somewhere in the world there's someone that

723
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,960
Speaker 1: is exactly like you. It might be on the other

724
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 1: side of the world. That might be down the street

725
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: right someone that has almost the same look as you have.

726
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 1: This it's very odd that this happened, like some kind

727
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 1: of time space continuum passing, passing by a time warp

728
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 1: or something very bizarre. But that was That was pretty cool. Now.

729
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:38,799
