My parents loved typewriters. I had to take 27 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: I'm so old, you'reund my age, but we had typewriting class. 28 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 1: We learned how to type, and we used typewriters in 29 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:42,040 Speaker 1: high school. They had a class that you had to take, and. 30 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 3: Well they were digital I remember though at that time, 31 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 3: like they switched them out to keyboards. 32 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: Well, we still had They had purchased a bunch of typewriters, 33 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: so they had a room filled with with typewriters. I 34 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: saw Docum Goal was trying to save money. I saw 35 00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: a typewriter. Well, yeah, I saw a type documentary a 36 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, and it's like, it's kind of 37 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: like station wagons. You know, there's a cult to people 38 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: that own station wagons. There's a cult to people that 39 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:13,359 Speaker 1: are typewriter people, and they love the typewriter. And there 40 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: are some very famous people that's still to this day, 41 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: even in modern times, like Quentin Tarantino, I know he's old. 42 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: Some of the other Hollywood types and creative people will 43 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,119 Speaker 1: use the typewriter. 44 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's almost like a real DJ busting out old 45 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 3: school turntables for show. 46 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, so it's National Typewriter Day. And the other 47 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: fact that I believe to be true the keyboard on 48 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: the typewriter. The reason the letters are the way they are, 49 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: how messed up they are, they're not they don't make 50 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: any sense right because you've got on your keyboard on 51 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: the top row of keys you have the QWE R, 52 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: et cetera, et cetera, and then online too you have 53 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: the as D F G H j K L, then 54 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 1: online three f z X. You know, I go on. 55 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: But we talked about in the past. I don't know 56 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 1: if you were with me or gag On who retired 57 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: to Florida was with me. But the theory is the 58 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: reason the keyboard is designed the way it is is 59 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: because the typewriter door to door salesman, in order to 60 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: impress people and sell typewriters, they made sure to put 61 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: all the letters to spell typewriter on the top row 62 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 1: of keys. So if you look at the keyboard, whether 63 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: it's on any keyboard on your phone or keyboard on 64 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: your laptop, whatever, on the top row, it has all 65 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: the letters necessary to type the word typewriter and then 66 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: they added they added Q in there. But the theory 67 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: is when they designed the keyboard, it was a way 68 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: to dazzle people when they were trying to sell the typewriter. 69 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: It was a marketing move so they could sell more typewriters. 70 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 3: I never wore story. 71 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: The more you know, Danny, the more you know. But say, 72 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: if you look at the I'm not making that up. 73 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: People might think I'm making that up. If you look 74 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,119 Speaker 1: at your device, all the keys to spell the word 75 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: typewriter are right there on the top row. And that was, 76 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: as the legend goes, by design because they wanted one 77 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: of the press. And think think if you were going 78 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: to door to or and you were trying to sell 79 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 1: typewriters and they're heavy and they're big, and you open 80 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,559 Speaker 1: them up and say, let me show you how easy 81 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: it is, and I'll just I'll just as example, all right, 82 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: typewriter and then they would do it. And yeah, that's 83 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: my my fun factor. A lot of fun facts, a 84 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: lot of fun facts on this podcast. 85 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 3: Alph is very excited right now. 86 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, But the reason the keys are not in alphabetical order, now, 87 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 1: there's another theory that that was just so they could 88 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 1: prevent you know, jamming of the keys and all that. 89 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: But originally they were going to have them in alphabetical order. 90 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: But the typewriter's salesman theory, which I got actually from 91 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: that that documentary I watched a few years ago, was 92 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: pretty pretty good. I mentioned we're gonna get to the 93 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 1: mail bag, but I mentioned the spinning of wheels. We 94 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,679 Speaker 1: did have a major update this past week the Malamobile. 95 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 1: After a couple of weeks in the shop, I got 96 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: the phone call that the car was ready to be 97 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 1: driven back home, and I happily handed over the keys 98 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: of the rental car with South Dakota plates. The entire 99 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: back bumper had been replaced on the My car got 100 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: rear ended driving back from a funeral of all places, 101 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks back. But this was actually an upgrade. 102 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: The car looks better now than it did before the accident. 103 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: The bumper. You know, the car that I drive a 104 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: lot is a little older. It's get some wear and 105 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: tear on it, and it had a few minor scrapes, 106 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: and the paint was chipped a little bit and dense. 107 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: But it's brand new and it's all painted and it 108 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 1: looks amazing and it was great, and I wasn't at faults, 109 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: so they had to pay might deductible and so they 110 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: paid my deductible and we're good on that. And I 111 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: did have to pay a little extra out of pocket 112 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: to the rental car people because my great insurance did 113 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: not cover the full cost of the rental car. But 114 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: I'm I'm happy to have the original Malormobile back. And 115 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: let's get to the mail bag. And that means, ohio aal, 116 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 1: it's bag all right, thank you, OHI al. First one 117 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:43,479 Speaker 1: on the mail bag comes from Gary. Gary is in Pittsburgh, 118 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: Bent Sylva. He says, Hey, Ben, I just finished listening 119 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 1: to the third hour of the Tuesday Slash Wednesday pod 120 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: and I heard something that I couldn't believe got swept 121 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: under the rug. Now the headline of this email indicates 122 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: that I might be losing it. So Gary tells me 123 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: that he went back to listen to the podcast again 124 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: to make sure he was not losing his mind he 125 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: going crazy. He then wrote down the time. He says, 126 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 1: at the twenty five thirty five mark, he heard Lorraine 127 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: Ah in her high pitched feminine voice, state I love 128 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: the sausage. There's a lot of meat. That is a 129 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: lot of meat. And to my surprise, he says Gary, 130 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: And to the surprise of no one, especially you, Ben yelled, 131 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: that's a drop. Yeah, he said, nobody yelled that's a drop. 132 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: Did you let it slide so it doesn't turn into 133 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: a a necro situation from a Wokester or worse, an 134 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: HR situation. I hope that's the case, and you are 135 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: not getting soft. That's from Gary and Pittsburgh. 136 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,119 Speaker 3: Do I have your permission to insert the NCRO drop 137 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 3: right here? 138 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 1: Well? That's is this far enough into the podcast world? Okay, 139 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: I don't know about that. 140 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 3: I'll do it towards the end of the podcast. Yeah, 141 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 3: if you're. 142 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 1: New to the show, there are a couple of pitchers 143 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: back in the day, Joe Nicro and Phil Nicro, and 144 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: they were knuckleball pitchers and I made a joke about 145 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: them on the air and maybe Danny g maybe not 146 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: made that into a drop, And every time it played 147 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: I had some Wokester email me. I used to like 148 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: your show. I can't believe you would be that racist. 149 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 3: Let's just say that some people who have wax in 150 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 3: their ears think that Ben was talking about the Negro leagues. 151 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: Yes, they thought I would just boldly pump my chest 152 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: out and say things that would be very offensive. 153 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 3: To some, and we would never do that. Fox loves 154 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 3: the negro leagues. They just had Birmingham. Yeah, yeah, deal 155 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 3: with the MLB where Fox covered that game. That was 156 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 3: an amazing thing they did to honor the negro leagues. 157 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 3: I loved watching that game last week. 158 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, Cardinals and Giants played there. But to answer your question, 159 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: the main reason I didn't yell that's a drop is 160 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: because Lorena, for whatever reason, doesn't believe in drops, and 161 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: so I don't know what it's going to take to 162 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,719 Speaker 1: get her on board, but she I just kind of 163 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: let that go. I would love for her to play 164 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: more drops. I would really like that. I think it 165 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: would be great. There is a balance, like I love 166 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: Roberto too. I think Roberto played a little too many 167 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: drops for a while there, and so that was a problem. 168 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: But now we've gone from driving on the Autobahn to 169 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: parking the car. We've done the complete, the complete one 170 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: eighty and uh yeah, there's a lot of stuff now. 171 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: I will also tell you Gary in Pittsburgh that it 172 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 1: is empowering that I can say whatever I want now 173 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: in any dumb thing will not be used against me 174 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: because Coop doesn't put anything in the system. He's watching 175 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: videos on his phone during the show, barely paying attention. 176 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: And Lorena, you know, she doesn't play the drops, and 177 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,599 Speaker 1: so there's really no one there to bother putting the 178 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 1: drops in. 179 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 3: So but you know what, I gave Lorena a homework assignment. 180 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 3: She is listening to this fifth hour podcast every weekend 181 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 3: to see where the drops go and what kind of 182 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 3: drop should be played. 183 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: I was impressed by the size.

No, Loraina is wonderful, 185 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: but when it comes to drops, that's just not her. 186 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 3: Jam No, don't try to backpedal and call her wonderful now, 187 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 3: because you know she's listening. 188 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: Well, I said, but when you say, but everything before 189 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: the butt's a lie. True, So everything I just said 190 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: was a lie before the word butt. Thank you, Gary, though, 191 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: I'm glad you pay that close attention to the podcast. 192 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: Alf from the app store says, hey, Ben, where will 193 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: you and Danny or Daddy g Daddy get your Arby's fixed? 194 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: Now that that iconic Arby's Hollywood location has been shut down. 195 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: It says Mark, the full name guy does not approve 196 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: this message. Yeah, we talked about that on the Friday 197 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: pod alf. We talked about that Arby's location. I spent 198 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: many a night online. That was a very poorly designed Arby's. 199 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 1: There a small drive through, but I spent a lot 200 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 1: of nights that's so. I used to get the big 201 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: Montana that was like a pound of their fake Is 202 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: that real with fake. 203 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 3: Meat in your hand? Back there? It was a mini Montana. 204 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, the curly fries, I got those. They had used 205 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: to et at Arby's semi regularly, and that was the location. Now, 206 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: there wasn't Arby's when I grew up that I ate at, 207 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: But as an adult I moved the Hollywood area. I 208 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: lived there for about twelve years or something like that. 209 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: I was in that area, So that was a long 210 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: time of my life in my twenties and thirties, early 211 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: thirties when I lived there, So I spent a lot 212 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: of time, and I knew where all the fast food 213 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 1: spots were, and that sign, that iconic sign, and right 214 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: down the Pig and Whistles not far from there. It's 215 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 1: a little bit down Hollywood Boulevard, but the pig and 216 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: whistles not that far from there, so not bad. Alf 217 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,319 Speaker 1: also says, I forgot to send this to you last week, 218 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: as it would have tied into your foody fund segment. 219 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: I performed a surgical strike on my way home from 220 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: work one day recently. Alf says, the key is that 221 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: you need to use the app. You're talking about Arby's here. 222 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,079 Speaker 1: Use the app place an online order as well. I 223 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: sent me some photos of receipts here. Get the deal. 224 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: Because the app won't allow more than one offer per order. 225 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: It says you need to be willing to forgo appetizers 226 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: and order only sandwiches. But Alf did that and for 227 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: five regular roast beef and two chicken sandwiches, it cost 228 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,599 Speaker 1: him less than twelve dollars. Less than twelve dollars with 229 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: that little hack. But that's in Springfield, mass I'm guessing 230 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: it'll be more in California. Ohough, Massachusetts is expensive, not 231 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,079 Speaker 1: at Springfield's not as expensive as Boston, though. 232 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 3: It's also Arbi's food that you have to eat. 233 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: Spairpoint. Spairpoint, a wild man of Morgantown, West Virginia writes, 234 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: and he says, hey, Ben and Danny g Other than 235 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 1: listening to your podcast, I also liked listening to some 236 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: of my favorite old school stand up comedians. Some of 237 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: my favorite Rodney Dangerfield, Sam Kinnison, and George Carlin. I 238 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: know you mentioned some of them before even calling your show. 239 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: Who is your favorite? Who makes you laugh every time? 240 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: I was a huge Carlin fan I saw Carlin performed. 241 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: He's the guy that used to call in. George Carlin 242 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: would call in to sports radio as George from Venice 243 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: and very random, but he loved local. He was a 244 00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,559 Speaker 1: radio guy. Carlin was a radio guy before he was 245 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 1: in the middle. But he was a radio guy before 246 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: he became a comedian and actually left radio to go 247 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 1: into comedy. Uh and he up until his you know, 248 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: till his death. My friend Lee became friends with Carlin 249 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: because Carlin was a fan of his show. So so 250 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: there's that and then cool. Yeah. I was in a 251 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: elevator with Rodney Dangerfield in Burbank, right across from Warner Brothers. 252 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: I didn't say anything to him.

He was he 254 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: had made a comeback. 255 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 3: I was. 256 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 1: I was a kid, I was actually before I was alive. 257 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: Dangerfield was a big star, but as a kid. Remember 258 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: he did that back to College movie or something like that, 259 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: Danny of course, Yeah, yeah, and that that was like 260 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 1: a rebirth.

We cannot have the ranch dressing. We 339 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 1: cannot have that. He also says, after hearing you bemoan 340 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: all the Ivy League nerds and the Dodger Analytical Department, 341 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 1: let me ask you this, would you rather have them 342 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 1: or the DeVry and Itt tech nerds working for the Angels. 343 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 3: I wouldn't bore you with all the numbers and all 344 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 3: the things that they talked about about the OBP and 345 00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 3: the SLG and the ISO and name it. 346 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the Angels hired people from America Online 347 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: and Netscape Navigator. That's what the Angels have in their 348 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:16,919 Speaker 1: analytics department. Yeah. Now I was complaining, Danny, because the 349 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: LA Dodgers, the team that we both love, have nine 350 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: pitchers currently that are hurt with major, some major, most major. 351 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 1: Yamamoto's out, but you have Walker Buehler just got hurt again, 352 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,439 Speaker 1: although we think that's something else he'said. Tommy John surgery, Trice, 353 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 1: Tony Gonsolin, Tommy John surgery, carrot top, He's Dustin may 354 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: have major surgery. And so the thing that I brought 355 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: up in my whole point, my hypothesis after a minutes 356 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: long investigation, was how is it possible for the last 357 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 1: ten plus years, the Dodgers have been coddling their pitchers. 358 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 1: They've been limiting the number of pitches they throw, they've 359 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: been limiting the number of innings they pitch. They've done 360 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 1: everything you're in air quotes supposed to do to protect pictures, 361 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: and it doesn't keep them from getting hurt. And I 362 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 1: flashed back to something that Tommy John, the actual Tommy 363 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,199 Speaker 1: John who was on this podcast with me said, and 364 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: other old time ballplayers that I've talked to who were pitchers, 365 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: and they universally said, you've got to throw more, not less. 366 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: You can't take as many days off. You don't have 367 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: to worry the pitch count thing. You don't need to 368 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: worry about it. Well, you're just a boomer. You don't 369 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 1: know what you're talking about. Okay, Well, the smart people, allegedly, 370 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 1: the wise people, the nuanced, knowledgeable people, have been running 371 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 1: the Dodgers and handling the pitchers. How's that working out? 372 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 1: How's it working out? Daddy? Answer the question? How do 373 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 1: you like them? Apples? Uh? Oh boy? 374 00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 3: Anyway? 375 00:20:58,400 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, carried away there. 376 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 3: At least bets, so Tani and Freeman. Oh wait, we 377 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 3: don't have bets. 378 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's true. Yeah, I heard. The rumor is 379 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: they're not going to even put him back at shortstop. 380 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 1: They're going to use this as an out and they're 381 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: going to move him back to the outfield and they're 382 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: going to trade for a shortstop at the deadline and 383 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: bring somebody else into play shortstop. 384 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 3: Sounds about right now, and they'll. 385 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 1: Say, well, we don't want to get hurt and all that. 386 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 1: But he didn't get hurt playing shortstop. 387 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:24,199 Speaker 3: Dan. 388 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,439 Speaker 1: He got hit by a pitch. It's not like he 389 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: got hit by a line drive at shortstop. He got 390 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: hit by a pitch that would have happened if he 391 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 1: was in the outfield. A little rough, all right. Next 392 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 1: one from Kwang in Vietnam. He says, big man and 393 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:43,160 Speaker 1: Danny g does a club sandwich stand for chicken lettuce 394 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: under bacon? What say you? Well, this is random? 395 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 3: Never heard of that in my life. Yeah. 396 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 1: Well, this is the history of the club sandwich. According 397 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 1: to Kwang, he says today a myth exists about the 398 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 1: club sam much that it's spelling stands for chicken and 399 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 1: lettuce under bacon. The origins of the acronym go back 400 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:11,360 Speaker 1: to the nineteenth century clubhouse in New York. The Saratoga 401 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 1: Clubhouse in Saratoga Springs claimed it introduced the sandwich in 402 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:21,439 Speaker 1: eighteen ninety four, and the Union Club, located on Fifth 403 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,159 Speaker 1: Avenue in New York City added The Clubhouse added a 404 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 1: clubhouse sandwich to its menu five years earlier. Now the 405 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,919 Speaker 1: Union Club. Stay with me. There'll be a test on 406 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: this later. The Union Club sandwich served as a template 407 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: for the modern day combination of two toasted slices of 408 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: thin bread, turkey or chicken and ham in between. At 409 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 1: the same time, the Saratoga Club claimed to have introduced 410 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: this combination. You know, it sounds like the French Dip 411 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 1: debate in La Yeah, we have a French dip battle 412 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles between Coals and what's the other place? 413 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 1: Coal is in downtown your skid row and then near 414 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:07,640 Speaker 1: Dodger Stadium's Philips. They've been battling it out for a while, 415 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 1: it says. The recipe also specified cutting it into triangles 416 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: to serve in the twentieth century. But wait, there's more 417 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: everything you need to know about a club sandwich from 418 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: our friend Kuang in Vietnam in the twentieth century. 419 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 3: The rest of the time for drop right now out there. 420 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: You The recipe also appeared in the Good Housekeeping Everyday Cookbook, 421 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,919 Speaker 1: this time with the choice of chicken or turkey or 422 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 1: and tomato. The next year, the sandwich we made an 423 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: appearance in the World's Fair and sales. Now, now that's 424 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 1: the big thing. When you would appear at the World's 425 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: Fair that way you've arrived and over the years it 426 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: has become the thing. So thank you, Quain. That's way 427 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 1: too much about the club sandwich, but we appreciate your 428 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:54,120 Speaker 1: interest in helping the show Steve from Toronto writes into 429 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: the podcast. Yeah, he says, And by the way, if 430 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: you want to email the podcast for a future episode, 431 00:23:58,280 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: you can do it right now. You can do it tomorrow, 432 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 1: you can do it next day. I recommend doing it 433 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 1: right now because a lot of people forget. They forget 434 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 1: to write in Andre's I meant to do that and 435 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 1: I didn't get to it, so it takes like a minute. 436 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: You send us a message. Step in Toronto says, Now 437 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 1: that it's summer here in Toronto, I'm enjoying the nice 438 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: weather and I want to know, would you guys rather 439 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: lounge by the pool or hang out on the beach. 440 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:25,120 Speaker 1: So from Steve in Toronto, now, you can't go wrong 441 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: with the pool or the beach. But I've become as 442 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: i've gotten older, more of a beach guy as i've 443 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: gotten older. When I was a kid, it was all 444 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: about the pool. I love the pool, but something magical 445 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: and it's really the Pacific, which is the superior ocean. 446 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 1: I've spent a lot of time on the East Coast 447 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: and gone to the Atlantic, and the Atlantic's fine, but 448 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't compare to the majestic nature of the Pacific. Ocean. 449 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 1: So if I'm on the Pacific or if I'm somewhere 450 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 1: in Hawaii or something like that. Oh man, all day 451 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: and all night, Danny, what about you? 452 00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess this one's kind of a toss up 453 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 3: because I do like I'm not like, I love the beach, 454 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 3: I love the ocean, but I don't like the sand 455 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 3: and getting the sand in your sunscreen, you know what 456 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 3: I mean. Like, there's a lot of. 457 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: And other places. 458 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,479 Speaker 3: Yes, you find sand in crevices you didn't know your 459 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 3: body had for days, so the sand could be a 460 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 3: little messy when you're by the pool. The great part 461 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 3: is if you're at a resort, especially you get pool 462 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 3: side service. So you get a club sandwhich brought to you, 463 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 3: You have drinks brought to you. That part of being 464 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 3: by pool. You have a TV screen over at the 465 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 3: bar that has like the football game on. That part 466 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 3: of laying next to the pool is amazing. 467 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, those are all nice things. But if you go 468 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: to a resort on the ocean, you can have maybe 469 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: not a pool, but you can have people bring drinks 470 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 1: to you and beach chares and all that. Regie Reggie 471 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:57,399 Speaker 1: from Detroit writes and he says, Ben, I saw that 472 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: Google is teasing AI generated movies in the future. Is 473 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 1: this progress or is this regression for movies? So I 474 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: didn't see this story, Danny. I don't know if you 475 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 1: guys talked about it on Covino and Rich, but he 476 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: did send me a link here. Reggie, I would say 477 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: this is regression. I think the whole point of art 478 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,679 Speaker 1: is it's created by humans. Am I wrong on that? 479 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:32,120 Speaker 1: Is that a bad take? I mean it's it's appreciating 480 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 1: what another human being is doing, not what a robot's doing. 481 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 3: Well in the shit we're stepping in or hackers are 482 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 3: stepping in right now, there's a bunch of deep fakes 483 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 3: out there. There's a younger actor who's facing hot water 484 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 3: right now. Nothing he did wrong, but somebody has a 485 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 3: deep fake out there with him and a minor Imagine 486 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,239 Speaker 3: being a famous actor or actress and somebody makes this 487 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 3: AI generated crap about you and you have to fight 488 00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:00,440 Speaker 3: it off. 489 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I totally get it. And even people that 490 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,639 Speaker 1: are on the low rung of the entertainment tower, like us, 491 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,239 Speaker 1: we're near the bottom of the totem pole, but we 492 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 1: still have, you know, this crap that we're gonna have 493 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: to deal with and people can. Eventually they'll be able 494 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: to mimic our voices completely. 495 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 3: Like this, necro drop right here. There's no way you 496 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 3: would have said listen, But all those Negroes look the same. 497 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a that's like those videos of Biden walking 498 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 1: the wrong direction around the helicopter.
