If Washington advances to the Super Bowl, 0:01:21.680 --> 0:01:24.040 we are allowed to call them the Redskins again. 0:01:24.480 --> 0:01:28.960 Hail to the Redskins, Hail to Big dory. 0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:33.160 Yeah, lately I've been hearing everybody say Redskins. It's okay again. 0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:36.360 Apparently Trump is the president, so you know Donald Trump 0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:37.080 is in the White House. 0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:37.360 Why not? 0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:41.479 But no, I you know, I loved watching right after 0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:46.120 the Commanders won their playoff game against Tampa and then 0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:50.040 in the lead into the Washington game against the Lions, 0:01:50.080 --> 0:01:52.680 they showed all these old highlights of the last time 0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:56.560 the franchise won a game, and it was all Redskins uniforms, 0:01:56.560 --> 0:01:59.000 but they didn't say Redskins. They didn't want to say 0:01:59.080 --> 0:02:02.400 it was. It was the tap dance. Was was crazy. Anyway, 0:02:02.400 --> 0:02:05.480 Philadelphia is a six point favorite in that game. The 0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:13.040 money's pretty even, pretty even on that. The money is even, 0:02:13.120 --> 0:02:15.760 which is what you want if you're the bookmaker. The 0:02:15.800 --> 0:02:18.639 Bills and the Chiefs. The late game and that game 0:02:18.720 --> 0:02:21.400 open is a pick them. It is now Kansas City 0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:24.640 favored by a point and a half, and the vast 0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:29.760 majority of the public and the wise guys taking the 0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:33.080 road team, the Buffalo Bills. So they if you go 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:39.440 buy where the money is, slight, lean to Washington, slight 0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:46.000 lean to Washington, a big lean to Buffalo. So based 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:49.560 on that, we're gonna have Buffalo and Washington in the 0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:53.000 Super Bowl. I don't think that's a great super Bowl, 0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:57.680 but that's what I believe. Kansas City is gonna win, and. 0:02:57.280 --> 0:03:00.560 I think Josh Allen and Jaden Daniel would be a 0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:01.560 good matchup. Though. 0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:06.200 Yeah, i'd like to see the Commanders win. I think 0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:10.320 they'll lose by a field goal, but they'll cover the number. 0:03:10.480 --> 0:03:12.120 I'd love for them to win, but I think they'll 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:14.640 They'll end up winning, you know, or losing by a 0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:16.200 field goal, or winning by a field goal. For I 0:03:16.240 --> 0:03:18.120 think has a fourth quarter game. I'd be surprised if 0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:20.079 they get killed. The only way to get killed is 0:03:20.120 --> 0:03:24.280 if if Jayden Daniels comes out either gets hurt like 0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:26.600 brock Purty remember a couple years ago brock Purty got 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:32.400 hurt against Philadelphia, or Jayden Daniels just has flop sweat 0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:34.920 and the moments he doesn't seem like the moment's too 0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:35.920 big though he's played fun. 0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:40.240 No, the poise that that kid plays with is pretty amazing. 0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:43.520 He's so calm and collected in the biggest moments. It 0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:46.680 looks like he's just going through walkthroughs. Yeah. 0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:50.320 No, he's been He's been great and former Arizona State 0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:51.800 Sun devil Herm Edwards. 0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:54.040 But he's from LA. Right, is an LA guy from? 0:03:54.080 --> 0:03:54.120 So? 0:03:55.440 --> 0:03:56.520 Was it from the Inland Umpire? 0:03:57.120 --> 0:03:59.800 Ah? Yeah, yeah, all right. 0:03:59.840 --> 0:04:01.400 So we'll see what happens with the games today. 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:03.240 And if you want to get more on the games 0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:08.040 Penny versus the Penny, it's on Pete Cock and regional 0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:15.320 cable television on in b see Sports. So I checked 0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:17.599 that out before we get to the mail bag. A 0:04:17.640 --> 0:04:21.120 couple of things here on this Sunday, the heat is on. 0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:24.839 I hope your heaters on. It sounds like Tom Looney 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:25.520 got you sick. 0:04:26.040 --> 0:04:27.240 Yeah, yeah, I don't want to get it. 0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:30.719 And then Tom Lookey, like a week ago, not this week, 0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:35.800 the week before Looney shows up and he's like he 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:40.000 seems a little off. We're doing the TV show and 0:04:40.320 --> 0:04:43.240 Loony's like, oh yeah, I'm not contagious. 0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:43.880 Everything's fine. 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:45.080 I'm good. Don't worry about it. 0:04:45.440 --> 0:04:46.159 I'm a doctor. 0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:47.680 You know. 0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:51.280 We have our table read. We're right across from each other. 0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:54.840 He's breathing on me and no, no, everything's fine. I'm 0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:58.400 not contagious, and uh yeah uh. 0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:01.760 Like that line from Home Alone, You're such a disease 0:05:01.880 --> 0:05:04.280 Kevin pretty much. I mean it was. 0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:07.960 It was brutal anyway, So the heat is on Monday night, 0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:12.960 I show up to the hollowed hallways of Fox Sports 0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:18.880 Radio and I go into the show and it's fine. 0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:20.960 I mean, the building's fine and walking a normal night. 0:05:21.440 --> 0:05:25.400 But I get into the main studio and the heat 0:05:25.480 --> 0:05:28.880 is on. It's really hot. So I like, I'm gonna 0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:34.200 turn the air conditioning down all the way down. The 0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:39.760 AC broke in the main main studio, the talk show studio, 0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:44.280 that side of the building. It got to eighty degrees 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:50.800 in there on Monday night. Eighty degrees in the studio. 0:05:51.360 --> 0:05:51.840 Brutal. 0:05:52.120 --> 0:05:56.160 I don't do well in heat. I don't Nobody told 0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:57.920 me it was broken. I guess it had been broken 0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:01.039 like that earlier that day, but no nobody told me. 0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:04.479 And yeah, that was a tough night because I have 0:06:04.480 --> 0:06:07.440 all these bright lights on because they put the YouTube 0:06:07.480 --> 0:06:09.600 stuff up and so they put all these extra lights. 0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:09.919 In the studio. 0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:13.200 And normally it's not a problem because I have that 0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:16.840 thing like an igloo. I'm sitting in there like I'm 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:19.920 an Eskimo or something like that, and or penguin or whatever. 0:06:20.120 --> 0:06:21.640 And it was so and. 0:06:21.560 --> 0:06:24.400 I turned all the lights off after the monologues, and 0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:26.840 I even walked out in the hallway because the air 0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:28.520 conditioning was on the other side of the building and 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:32.560 it was like a sauna. And it was not sweating 0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:34.880 to the oldies. It was sweating to the sports takes. 0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:36.839 It is what it was. 0:06:36.920 --> 0:06:39.320 And I know you were in there all week too, Danny, 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:40.640 and deal with that. 0:06:41.360 --> 0:06:44.880 It got so bad that Friday to do the podcast. 0:06:45.040 --> 0:06:47.960 Right after Covino and Rich, I walked over to the 0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:52.039 Cowherd studio and sat and used their computer because I 0:06:52.160 --> 0:06:55.080 just couldn't stand those studios on that side of the 0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:59.720 building any longer. What a shitty week of sweating and 0:06:59.720 --> 0:07:02.360 that you know, that clammy feeling you get where your 0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:07.760 skin can't breathe. It was fucking gross. And to do 0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:12.400 radio like that is so difficult, and it's bad for 0:07:12.480 --> 0:07:14.400 the equipment on top of everything else. 0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:16.960 Well then and that's people were like, well, wasn't so 0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:19.040 hot in there. It's not that hot in LA, But yeah, 0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:22.080 we're sitting around, you know, millions of dollars worth of 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:26.760 equipment and it generates a lot of heat, a lot 0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:32.480 of heat, right, And yeah, it was a explosive situation. 0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:36.640 I was waiting for combustion. That is what I was 0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:37.080 waiting for. 0:07:37.160 --> 0:07:37.440 It was. 0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:38.720 It was brutal. 0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:41.320 And they say they were waiting for a part. Waiting 0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:41.840 for a part. 0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:44.600 Yeah, yeah, I heard it might arrive on Monday. 0:07:45.280 --> 0:07:48.200 Yeah, Well maybe I'll arrive when the part of how 0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:52.840 about that arrive? When the part arrives, that'll be my 0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:53.520 my plan. 0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:55.200 That'll be my plan there. 0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:56.480 Yeah. 0:07:56.520 --> 0:08:01.000 So maybe maybe the dog people would like the heat. 0:08:01.200 --> 0:08:02.160 I'm a dog person. 0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:03.640 I don't like it. But there's other dog people that 0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:04.280 might like the heat. 0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:08.200 Danny. Actually, dog people would be okay in this scenario 0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:10.720 because a lot of dog people have to sit outside. 0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:13.120 Oh yeah, yes, right. 0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:14.800 And you're gonna feel me on this one because I 0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:18.320 know you just went through this. During the holidays, my 0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:22.720 family in San Jose, California, they're having a little get 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:26.679 together when me, Brenda and the baby fly up that way. 0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:30.680 In February, a week after the Super Bowl, I circle 0:08:30.760 --> 0:08:33.280 a weekend to bring CoA up to see his grandma. 0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:38.840 My mom has only seen CoA once. She's really excited 0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:42.160 about this February visit. Found a park, a nice park 0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:44.720 in San Jose. A little worried about the weather. It's 0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:47.360 probably going to be I don't know, like sunny, but 0:08:47.520 --> 0:08:50.319 sixty degrees So not the kind of weather where you 0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:53.760 want to stay at the park all day long. No sure, 0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:56.960 Normally we would do a barbecue, play some whiffle ball, 0:08:57.760 --> 0:09:01.600 everybody comes out. What He and my cousin in the 0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:06.040 San Francisco Bay area. He's kind of planning things, and 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:08.959 I told him, Hey, make sure it's a park with basketball. 0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:11.600 Make sure it's a park that's got the sports we need. 0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:14.000 I don't think we need to worry about the barbecue 0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:18.280 stuff though. Let's just find a restaurant that's easy going, 0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:21.600 like a pizza place whatever that we can all go 0:09:21.760 --> 0:09:25.000 to afterwards that will take a big party. So kind 0:09:25.000 --> 0:09:28.800 of like a hybrid day of park restaurant all right. 0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:33.400 My older brother finds out about this in the family 0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:36.640 group chat, texts me on the side and he says, 0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:39.240 what the hell I thought this was going to be 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:42.600 a barbecue day at the park. And I explained the 0:09:42.600 --> 0:09:45.760 whole weather thing. This sucks, man. I have my dogs. 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:52.000 I'm bringing my dogs with meff. I can't go to 0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:53.760 a restaurant with my dogs. 0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:56.440 Wait, wait, where does he live? He lives? 0:09:56.520 --> 0:09:59.960 Does he live in San Jose, a in Vallejo. Oh okay, 0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:02.679 so it's a little bit of a drive to San Jose. 0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:05.400 Yeah, but you're giving him plenty of times. It's a 0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:07.080 month away, right, thank you. 0:10:07.559 --> 0:10:10.960 Now, dog people hear me out because I love dogs, 0:10:11.000 --> 0:10:14.120 I love cats, but I also can leave my pets 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:17.920 at home, especially on a day where family is getting together. 0:10:18.720 --> 0:10:21.920 Why are there some dog people, ben who just cannot 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:24.840 leave their dogs at home? Yeah? 0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:27.640 It you know, your preacher to the choir, you know, 0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:30.640 as I told you my We talked about it on 0:10:30.640 --> 0:10:34.240 this podcast in a previous episode. The trip to San Francisco, 0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:38.480 and I had two of my in laws that brought 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:42.760 their dog. It was raining and cold in San Francisco, 0:10:43.400 --> 0:10:45.840 the you know, the iconic Fishermen's Wharf with all the 0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:48.560 homeless people and the beautiful views, and we had to 0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:52.959 sit outside and die in Alfresco because they had their 0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:56.280 dogs with them, and everywhere we went had to be 0:10:56.400 --> 0:11:01.520 dog friendly. It was insane. I hated it. 0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:05.000 We called the restaurant by the way, yeah, my cousin 0:11:05.040 --> 0:11:08.240 and I to make sure they had outside tables and 0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:11.560 they have heaters. I shared this info with my older 0:11:11.600 --> 0:11:13.920 brother and he said, if it's too cold to be 0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:16.599 at the park and barbecue, why would I want to 0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:20.840 sit outside even with a heater. You know, I'll probably 0:11:20.880 --> 0:11:23.839 just bring my own lunch to the park. So, I mean, 0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:26.880 it just feels like he's being difficult because he thinks 0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:29.840 that we are conspiring against him or something. 0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:34.120 But is he your younger brother, older brother, older brother brother. 0:11:35.160 --> 0:11:37.160 He's like they're treating he's treating him like his kids. 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:39.120 Is that what he's doing, because that's what I think 0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:40.600 he's like the practice. 0:11:40.679 --> 0:11:43.880 Yeah, these these two dogs in the family group chat 0:11:43.960 --> 0:11:46.880 a lot of us, are you know, sending pictures of 0:11:46.920 --> 0:11:49.320 our kid or whatever is going on with the family. 0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:53.920 He sends pictures of his two dogs. Oh boy, he's 0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:58.920 got kids. They're grown now, there their college. His youngest 0:11:59.040 --> 0:12:02.320 just graduated from high school. So these two dogs have 0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:03.920 replaced the kids at the house. 0:12:04.120 --> 0:12:06.240 Well, and the dog is a good replacement because it'll 0:12:06.240 --> 0:12:09.880 never leave you unless it's dead. That's it. That's the 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:11.920 only way the dog leaves. The only exit for the dog, 0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:15.000 the only off ramp is death. That's pretty much pretty 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:18.080 much it. All right, Well, why don't we get to 0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:19.920 the mail bag. What do you say, Danny g you 0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:22.080 want a mail bag, Ohio, Al. 0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:23.960 Let's do it. 0:12:23.960 --> 0:12:38.120 It's all right. 0:12:38.120 --> 0:12:41.400 These thank you, Ohio.

First one is from 0:13:03.960 --> 0:13:10.400 Fred in Florida. Fred writes in and says, Hey, fellas, 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:14.160 I know you're not big fans of the politics in California. 0:13:14.200 --> 0:13:17.959 Fred says, what did you guys think of Donald Trump 0:13:18.679 --> 0:13:25.840 sparring with some of your local politicians on Friday after noon? 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:29.320 I liked it. I want to get your thoughts. 0:13:31.160 --> 0:13:31.280 Uh. 0:13:31.360 --> 0:13:31.560 Yeah. 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:33.760 I didn't watch too much, but I saw people were 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:35.319 sending me. I don't know about you, Danny, but people 0:13:35.320 --> 0:13:40.000 were sending me clips. And this is not a political podcast, 0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:41.920 but I just thought it was a lot of common 0:13:41.960 --> 0:13:45.959 sense stuff that I don't know. I know everything's partisan, 0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:47.880 and you know you're if you're on one team, you 0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:51.520 got a rip Trump no matter what. But the clip 0:13:51.559 --> 0:13:55.360 that I saw of him, and was it Karen Bass, 0:13:56.200 --> 0:13:59.480 the mayor who was in Africa while the city was 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:00.199 burning down. 0:14:00.480 --> 0:14:01.800 Yeah. 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:05.120 And also my other really one of my all time 0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:09.400 favorite bloopers from any politician. Well, this week we had 0:14:09.400 --> 0:14:12.600 the Eagle chant, which is just absolutely wonderful. But Karen Bass, 0:14:12.600 --> 0:14:15.960 remember right after the fires, she did a news conference 0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:20.200 and she read word for word Ron Burgundy style off 0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:24.360 the teleprompter. The people of La who need help, you 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:29.240 can help can be found at r L. She read 0:14:29.280 --> 0:14:31.840 off the prompter uur L, which was just. 0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:33.880 Great. 0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:36.680 But No, I thought the part where he was saying, 0:14:37.280 --> 0:14:40.000 you have the power, mayor, you have a lot of power. 0:14:40.040 --> 0:14:41.880 You can let these people come back to their homes 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:44.880 and you know, within twenty four hours. You don't have 0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:46.800 to make them wait a week or you know, months 0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:50.640 and all this and just expedite the permits. To me, 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:52.600 that that's just maybe I'm wrong. 0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:53.280 I don't know, Dandy. 0:14:53.280 --> 0:14:55.960 It just seems like that, yes, let these people get 0:14:56.000 --> 0:14:59.000 back in, let them, you know, don't give them ten 0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:02.080 million hoops, don't make it a steeplechase to rebuild their 0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:04.120 homes if they're able to do it. And there's a 0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:05.840 lot of those people that won't be able to do 0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:07.640 it because all their money was in the house and 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:11.040 they even though they're living in Malibu or the Palisades, 0:15:11.080 --> 0:15:13.440 they don't have that kind of money. They inherited it, 0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:16.080 and all their money was in their house. So I 0:15:16.120 --> 0:15:17.720 don't know what they're going to do. You know, it's 0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:22.720 very expensive to build anything, but I agree with with 0:15:22.800 --> 0:15:26.640 Trump that they should just cut out the bureaucracy and 0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:29.600 let's get this thing going. This is an unprecedented situation. 0:15:30.000 --> 0:15:36.160 There has never been this kind of a fire that 0:15:36.800 --> 0:15:40.040 I guess, I don't know, never but in our modern times. 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:44.200 What was the cow the Great Chicago fire, which I 0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:49.479 guess was a bullshit story that the cow started it? Yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:54.040 I've heard that this was probably some arsonists that started it. 0:15:54.040 --> 0:15:56.160 But either way, the whole city's not supposed to burn down. 0:15:56.160 --> 0:15:59.320 You know, you have a fire department, you have you're 0:15:59.360 --> 0:16:01.360 supposed to put guard rails up. The whole damn city 0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:04.200 should not burn down. But I just you know, again 0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:06.400 what I saw, I didn't see the whole thing, so 0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:09.160 maybe I missed part of it. But that exchange Danny 0:16:09.240 --> 0:16:13.200 I thought was outstanding. And I think that's that's why 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:17.880 Trump won the election, because that's what the common person wants. 0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:19.840 You know, your house burns down. You want to get 0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:20.560 back to your house. 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:21.440 You want it. 0:16:21.440 --> 0:16:23.520 You don't want to cut out the bullshit, and you 0:16:23.560 --> 0:16:25.040 want to be able to do you know, if you 0:16:25.040 --> 0:16:27.000 have the resource, you want to see what you've got 0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:29.880 and then you've got a place to live, get rebuild it. 0:16:30.360 --> 0:16:33.160 Yeah, I read that if the red tape could be 0:16:33.200 --> 0:16:36.440 cut out of this, it would take around three years 0:16:36.520 --> 0:16:40.640 for some of these communities to get rebuilt. So how 0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:44.080 long is it really going to take. It's we will 0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:45.520 be ten years. 0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:47.760 Oh, by ten to fifteen years. 0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:50.800 That's that's just sad. And I was reading here. It 0:16:50.840 --> 0:16:54.640 says the briefing got tense after Bass brought up allowing 0:16:54.720 --> 0:16:59.040 residents to quickly rebuild from the damage after clearing hazardous 0:16:59.080 --> 0:17:03.600 waste from properties, prompting Trump to insist that residents were 0:17:03.640 --> 0:17:06.600 facing a delay of eighteen months to rebuild. 0:17:07.040 --> 0:17:10.400 Yeah, he had a line in there, which was great, 0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:13.960 you're gonna have all these contractors that have to be 0:17:14.000 --> 0:17:16.879 approved come in. It's going to cost these these residents 0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:19.359 like twenty five thousand dollars to get their property cleared. 0:17:19.640 --> 0:17:21.960 When if you allow them to go in, they'll show 0:17:22.080 --> 0:17:24.640 up with I'm paraphrasing here, but He essentially said, they'll 0:17:24.640 --> 0:17:27.920 show up with a truck, you know, pickup truck and 0:17:28.320 --> 0:17:30.000 haul all the shit away themselves. 0:17:30.560 --> 0:17:32.360 Yeah, they'll they'll. 0:17:32.160 --> 0:17:35.680 Take care of themselves and within a couple of days 0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:39.399 they'll be ready to start the next step of the 0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:43.719 rebuild of their their home. So anyway, and then there 0:17:43.760 --> 0:17:46.360 was also a clip that I saw where he got 0:17:46.400 --> 0:17:49.119 into it one of these Weasley politicians in California that's 0:17:49.160 --> 0:17:51.720 responsible for the fires because they didn't take care of 0:17:51.760 --> 0:17:54.320 the forests, and they didn't they didn't take care of 0:17:54.359 --> 0:17:57.800 the water situation, so they're culpable. I'm sure there'll be 0:17:57.840 --> 0:18:00.400 a class action lawsuit against them at some point here. 0:18:01.359 --> 0:18:03.680 But he went on a r ant about he you know, listen, 0:18:03.720 --> 0:18:08.200 you should do things so this doesn't happen again. And 0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:12.080 the guy wouldn't even of course, you never admit to it. 0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:15.480 So he said, well, don't punish us. Why would you 0:18:15.560 --> 0:18:18.640 not punish you. You caused the whole freaking. 0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:21.439 City to burn down. You're in competent. You should be 0:18:21.440 --> 0:18:24.320 in jail. I'm gonna get off my soapbox, dady. 0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:27.399 I just I saw those clips and it got me 0:18:27.920 --> 0:18:31.399 got me worked up, all right. Alf from the Hollywood 0:18:31.440 --> 0:18:33.560 Walk of Fame rights, and he says, I know that 0:18:33.600 --> 0:18:36.720 you guys are humble and would not brag about all 0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:39.680 the famous people that you've come across in your careers, 0:18:39.760 --> 0:18:41.639 like a certain TV dentist. 0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:42.199 We all know. 0:18:42.920 --> 0:18:45.639 So I asked the question, what is it like working 0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:49.400 with so many former and current pro athletes? By the way, 0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:53.560 unlike the aforementioned TV dentist, you don't see me bragging 0:18:53.720 --> 0:18:56.480 about the fact that former Celtic third string center Hank 0:18:56.520 --> 0:19:01.720 Finkel once asked me Alf says for the time of day, 0:19:02.119 --> 0:19:04.840 or that I've eaten at the Dairy Queen across the 0:19:04.880 --> 0:19:09.760 street from Patrick Chard's High School, or that I saw 0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:13.439 a Lenny Clark comedy show down the street from the 0:19:13.480 --> 0:19:18.159 house that Connie Mack was born in. Some people, I 0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:23.480 tell you, very funny, very very funny. How some of 0:19:23.560 --> 0:19:27.240 these it's a mixed bag, Danny Ready. The ex jocks 0:19:27.240 --> 0:19:29.720 that have worked at our place, you know, some are 0:19:29.880 --> 0:19:32.439 pretty good. There's a lot of them that, unfortunately or not, 0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:35.280 they don't put the work in, which is unfortunate. I've 0:19:35.280 --> 0:19:37.679 always enjoyed the coaches more than the players. That's just me, 0:19:38.880 --> 0:19:41.159 you know, just kind of as a general rule like 0:19:41.240 --> 0:19:46.200 the coaches. Jim Morrow was awesome. Denny Green he only 0:19:46.240 --> 0:19:47.919 worked there for like a couple of weeks and then 0:19:47.960 --> 0:19:51.159 he was out, but he was He was cool, So 0:19:51.320 --> 0:19:53.720 the coaches. I we I did a bunch of shows 0:19:53.800 --> 0:19:55.200 during the NCAA tournament with. 0:19:56.680 --> 0:19:56.880 God. 0:19:56.920 --> 0:19:58.919 I'm trying to think of the gentleman's name. 0:19:58.960 --> 0:20:02.119 It's been so many years, but he was coach at LSU. 0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:07.840 He coached, He brought Shaquille O'Neal to LSU. I know 0:20:07.880 --> 0:20:12.840 who you're talking about, Brown, Dale Brown, very nice, love 0:20:12.960 --> 0:20:18.280 Dale Brown Dale. The thing about it, though, Dale didn't 0:20:18.359 --> 0:20:20.720 necessarily want to talk too much college basketball, but we 0:20:20.720 --> 0:20:22.760 brought him into talk college basketball was during. 0:20:22.560 --> 0:20:23.359 The NCAA tournament. 0:20:23.400 --> 0:20:26.199 I was doing shows like a round robin show. But 0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:28.240 he could not have been a nicer guy. He called 0:20:28.240 --> 0:20:30.440 me up from his hotel all excited the night before 0:20:30.480 --> 0:20:33.400 we were going over the show, and then he got 0:20:33.480 --> 0:20:35.359 there and he and he talked about a little bit. 0:20:35.400 --> 0:20:38.080 But it's like, eh, yeah, what. 0:20:38.080 --> 0:20:41.919 About you, Danny. The guests on media row at the 0:20:41.960 --> 0:20:45.200 Super Bowl had been pretty cool. A lot of coaches 0:20:45.240 --> 0:20:51.040 and players former current. The coolest dude who I put 0:20:51.040 --> 0:20:54.880 the headset on to talk to Klay Travis. Was your boy, 0:20:54.960 --> 0:21:00.240 dak Prescott Dakota. Yeah, he was really nice, impersonable, and 0:21:00.240 --> 0:21:03.080 then talked about the Lakers with me after he got 0:21:03.080 --> 0:21:06.800 off the air. He was a cool dude. Well that's good. 0:21:07.280 --> 0:21:09.000 Yeah, I mean they're not. I mean some of these guys. 0:21:09.560 --> 0:21:13.639 Some are nice guys, just regular dudes, and other guys 0:21:13.760 --> 0:21:20.199 spend like CJ. Stroud. They stood there with glasses on 0:21:20.320 --> 0:21:23.359 and chains and big timed the media. Why are you 0:21:23.440 --> 0:21:25.920 there at media row if you don't want to interact 0:21:25.960 --> 0:21:28.159 with any of the radio people or the TV people, 0:21:28.160 --> 0:21:31.679
