Speaker 1: Kabooms.

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
Speaker 2: of the old Republic, a soul fashion of fairness. He

5
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the

6
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow to clearinghouse of

Speaker 1: Eywey, Welcome to another sparkling edition of The Fifth Hour

10
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: with Ben Mahler and Danny G. The thirteenth day of

11
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 1: the month of January. But more importantly, Danny, for our purposes,

12
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: we have football action on wild Card weekend. It begins

13
00:00:55,760 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 1: later today, double barrel action. Are you do you have

14
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 1: a proper cushion to sit on, Danny G to watch

15
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 1: the two games later today?

16
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,199
Speaker 3: Well, first, I think we should start with the major news,

17
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 3: fourth big announcement of the week. Okay, first we had

18
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 3: Pat Carroll, then Nick Saban, then of course Bill Belichick,

19
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 3: and I hear that Ben Mallor is going to be

20
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 3: retiring from radio.

21
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I'm retiring doing TV now, Danny, I have

22
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 1: much too important to do radio so I that is

23
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 1: a fair point. I have decided that this is my

24
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 1: last podcast. We won't even do the Sunday podcast. This

25
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 1: is it, this is all I'm doing. I'm retiring. I

26
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: just need to spend more time with my family. That's

27
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,399
Speaker 1: all I need to do. Danny, that's what a week.

28
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 4: Huh Yeah, crazy week.

29
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 3: And I feel like when you and I get to

30
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 3: that age, though, our only option is going to be

31
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 3: like a Walmart greeter.

32
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we're not at the financial status of Nick Saban.

33
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: Although I am a conspiracy theory guy, Danny, I am

34
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: one that believes that, hey, wait a minute here, there's

35
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: more to the story. We're not getting the whole story.

36
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: Like I'm kind of that guy. I think we're getting

37
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: a version of what happened. But there's a lot of

38
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: stuff that's being left on the cutting room floor that's

39
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: on the same thing. And really the Belichick thing too,

40
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 1: because and I mentioned this in a monologue this week

41
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 1: where I was talking about Belichick and it was like

42
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,959
Speaker 1: I was like in a show me state of mind.

43
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 1: I was like, all right, let's see this actually play out.

44
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 1: And the fact that they waited until Thursday, you know, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.

45
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:36,359
Speaker 1: It tells you that there was some consternation with the

46
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 1: Patriots and that this line that they were using that

47
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 1: it was a mutual decision. It's it's never people break up.

48
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: I look at this like breakups.

49
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 5: You know.

50
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: It's someone has to be the first person to say,

51
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: all right, it's over, we're done. You know what I mean, Dan,

52
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: It's it's not like you don't exactly the same time.

53
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: Maybe it happened a handful of times, but at the

54
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: exact same time. Come on, that's bullshit.

55
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 3: One person is drinking to ease the pain. The other

56
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 3: person is drinking to have fun.

57
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, exactly. So you know, the mutual. When I

58
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: hear a mutual decision, I say bullshit, that's what That's

59
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,239
Speaker 1: what I say in my head. And uh, and that's

60
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 1: just the reality of the situation the way I see it.

61
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: So you know, take that for what it's worth now. Uh.

62
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 1: With that being said, great week for talk radio. I

63
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: was texting some of my radio friends that I have

64
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: a little network, and we were talking about how we

65
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 1: need to really relish this, really enjoy this. When we

66
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: are breaking down mock drafts and who's going to be

67
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 1: selected in the sixth round by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

68
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: You know, it's like that. That's that's where we have

69
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 1: to we have to enjoy days like that. We had

70
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: this week and it was great, and I want to

71
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 1: thank the NFL because what they've done is it's no

72
00:03:55,560 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: longer black Monday Racist. It's an entire week of festivities

73
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: because you had on Monday, well, Sunday night it started

74
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: Arthur Blank was fired Arthur Smith. Rather Arthur Blank fired

75
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: Arthur Smith. Who Sunday night. Then Monday you had Ron Rivera.

76
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: Tuesday was Mike Rabel, Wednesday was Pete Carroll, Thursday was

77
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick and also Wednesday you had Nick Savor. That's

78
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 1: great and I have proposed that the NFL what they

79
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 1: should do. I mentioned this on the Overnight Show, but maybe.

80
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 4: You hear it.

81
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 1: What the NFL should do is when coaches start getting hired,

82
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: they should have each day dedicated to a different team,

83
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 1: like the Raiders get Tuesday, and after that, you know,

84
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: the Falcons can hire their coach on a Wednesday, and

85
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 1: the Patriots they can go on a Thursday. And just

86
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,679
Speaker 1: like boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom

87
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 1: boom boom boom boom boom, just like that, because for

88
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: guys like us, Dandy, that would be great, right, that

89
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: we'd be able to bite into everything we wonder.

90
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, whenever you have a fresh headline every day for

91
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 3: every show, it's awesome.

92
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 1: No, it's a wonderful thing. And today, you know who

93
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: knows this, we got football, so actual games, so I

94
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: guess we don't have to worry. But as far as

95
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: this podcast, we've got to bucko Bruce, Religious Revival, back

96
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: to school, the term of the week, not to be

97
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: confused with the word of the week or the stuff

98
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: that we did on yesterday's podcast. And we'll see what

99
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: else we have time for. But I want to start

100
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: with this. So the other day I got a text

101
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: message from a member of the Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association.

Speaker 1: I'll do it. So the guy is TJ Reeves. If

117
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 1: you've listened to Fox Sports Radio a lot over the years,

118
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:25,599
Speaker 1: you know who.

119
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,280
Speaker 4: TV buccaneers sideline reporter.

120
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: The Buck's Sideline guy exactly, Buck Obruce And so he

121
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: does a couple of different podcasts and TJ wanted me

122
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: to come out, so we chatted. It was supposed to

123
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 1: be about thirty minutes. I think we did almost an hour.

124
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: I think it seemed like it was an hour, and

125
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: we were just catching up, telling stories about the Z

126
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: dog an e Z, one of the bosses at Fox

127
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: in the early days, and breaking everything down and tossing

128
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: it up, putting some Cayenne pepper on it. And it

129
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: was a really fun conversation because it was kind of

130
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 1: about radio and the evolution of the business and how

131
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 1: it's changed because me and TJ we're around the same age. Danny,

132
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: You're kind of in the same group as us, and

133
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 1: so just talking about the way it was in radio

134
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: when we got into it and how it has evolved

135
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: over the years and it's a much different animal now

136
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: than it was. And I actually sent out a link

137
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: to that if you want to hear that podcast. But

138
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 1: you should listen to all these podcasts before you listen

139
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 1: to that, Like that should be like the last thing

140
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: that you listen to. Like that's like if you're on

141
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: a long road trip you're moving man, Matt and you're

142
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 1: going around the country, that's what you listen to after

143
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 1: you've listened to all the archive of this podcast.

144
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 4: But it was fun.

145
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: It was fun to catch up with TJ. And it

146
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: made me feel old because when TJ worked at Fox

147
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 1: Sports Radio, he was a doting father bragging about his

148
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: little girls and all that. And then then of course

149
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 1: now he gave me an update and they're almost out

150
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: of high school. So it's a boom just happened really fast,

151
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: like really fast.

152
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it goes so fast. Cole is already riding

153
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 3: a big wheel.

154
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, Cole actually went out to the bar and had

155
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: a beer with you the other day, right, beer nuts

156
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 1: at the bar talking about girls. So that was fun

157
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 1: with Brocco Bruce. So this was a wild day. So

158
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: this is the same day. I had a lot going on.

159
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 1: I had a lot going on this day. So I

160
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: did the conversation with TJ Reeves on his podcast. So

161
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: then I had a conference call with NBC about the

162
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 1: TV show because we're still doing it and it's on

163
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 1: this week, is on, it was on yesterday, and he's

164
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: even on today. It's gonna be awkward because it'll be

165
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 1: broadcast even after the first couple of playoff games. Normally,

166
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: in the past there's a kill switch on Benny Versus

167
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 1: the Penny. Once the games kick off on Sunday, that's it.

168
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: They don't air the show anymore because it's not evergreen,

169
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: it's dated. But because of the playoffs, they made a

170
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: decision to continue to broadcast it, and they actually released

171
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 1: the show on Thursday this week, and it was It

172
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 1: was kind of cool because normally just airs on Friday,

173
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 1: Saturday and Sunday morning, but now it was on Thursday

174
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: in some markets, and so that's that was gonna go anyway.

175
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 1: The whole point of this is that I did the TJ.

176
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: Reeves podcast. I then had a conference call, but I

177
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 1: had about thirty minutes in between. I had about thirty

178
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: minutes in between, and I had a decision do I

179
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: just sit there and kind of twiddle my thumbs, which

180
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: is nothing wrong with that. I could have played Solitaire

181
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: on my phone and would have loved that. I love

182
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 1: playing solitaire. Could have done that, and then I could

183
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 1: have just like stared at a wall. Or I decided,

184
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 1: you know what, why did I go on Marcel in

185
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: Brooklyn's YouTube show? This is shame?

186
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 2: What mean?

187
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 1: Yeah? So so Marcel from the Projects there in Brooklyn

188
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: has a YouTube show, like a Facebook YouTube show, and

189
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 1: he had sent me a a stream yard. Is that

190
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: what it is? Streamyard? I think it's what it's called.

191
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: He sent me a link and he's like, hey, you

192
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 1: know when I have you on? And I was like, okay,

193
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 1: whatever you know, and I was like, ah, thirty five

194
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,719
Speaker 1: thousand bucks, I'll come on. That's my appearance fee, that's

195
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,839
Speaker 1: what it cost to get me. But for some reason,

196
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, why don't I just

197
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,200
Speaker 1: I'll do it for like a few minutes, I'll go

198
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: on there for a few minutes and I'll I'll just

199
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: say hello to him and see what's going on. I

200
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:26,719
Speaker 1: think it'd be funny. And so I log in to

201
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: this this link, and all of a sudden boom, I'm

202
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 1: on his show, which I think friends and family watch

203
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 1: and one of those deals. And I gotta tell you,

204
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 1: I'm so happy I did it. The smile, the joy

205
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: that Marcel had on his face was unbelievable for him.

206
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: This was like an amazing thing. And I mean just

207
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: getting that reaction, I mean, who the hell am I doing?

208
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 1: Overnight show? You know who the f am I and.

209
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 4: You are his old Trump?

210
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I mean it felt like that. I was like,

211
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: I was like the Beatles, I was. I was like,

212
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: you know, Taylor Swift going out on stage, the way

213
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 1: that he reacted with pure joy in his heart and

214
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: a cheshire cat smile, and he was giddy, and it

215
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,719
Speaker 1: was just wonderful. I just enjoyed the hell out of it,

216
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: and it was great. It made me feel good. Then

217
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 1: congratulations made me feel like I did a good thing.

218
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 1: And then immediately after that, Danny, this is this is

219
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: you know, no good deed goes on punished. So immediately

220
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:37,079
Speaker 1: after that, me and Marcella talking and he says, let's

221
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:42,319
Speaker 1: do a prayer. He then it turns into a religious revival.

222
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 1: He now not knowing does he not do the prayer.

223
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 1: He plays a some minister that he found on the

224
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: internet doing the daily prayer. No, I'm not against the way,

225
00:11:53,320 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 1: was it, Kurt Warner? Yeah, thank you Jesus, Jesus. So

226
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: I'm not against any of that. I give sermons every

227
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,199
Speaker 1: night on the radio. I do four sermons a night.

228
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 1: The mall monologues a sermon. But I was not expected.

229
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: I was blindsided. Danny like, I'm thinking, I'll just go

230
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 1: on there for five minutes. I'll bust marselves balls a

231
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 1: little bit, we'll talk some sports, I'll get out. Next

232
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 1: thing I know, I'm sitting in the tabernacle. It's just like,

233
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 1: what are we doing? Was unreal? So then after that,

234
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 1: I was like, I didn't know what to do, because

235
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: you can't. I was going to hang up, but I

236
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: was like, you can't hang up in a prayer. The

237
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: guy's doing a prayer. Can't hang up here.

238
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:35,839
Speaker 4: Transition.

239
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: I had to wait till the prayer was over. I

240
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: just kind of sat there bemused. I was like, what

241
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: is going on? And then once the prayer ended, Danny

242
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, now I'm out. Now I'm going

243
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,559
Speaker 1: to make the quick I'm going to make the Irish goodbye.

244
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: And I did actually have to go. I could have

245
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,959
Speaker 1: gone like fifteen minutes later, but I was like, no,

246
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: after that, I'm good.

247
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 3: I like when we were little kids you could finally

248
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 3: loosen your tie or take off the clip on bow tie,

249
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 3: and then your mom took you for the Sunday special

250
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 3: at Burger King.

251
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah. The best part of you know, for

252
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: me temple, for you church, the best part was when

253
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: it was over right and you're like, all right, I'm good,

254
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 1: I survived another week.

255
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:14,839
Speaker 4: Oh.

256
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 3: During the song in the prayer, me and my older

257
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 3: brother would try to not make each other laugh because

258
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 3: my mom would give us the evil side eye and say.

259
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 4: You're not getting burger King after this.

260
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 3: If you keep laughing, the more you try not to laugh,

261
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 3: the more you laugh.

262
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, for sure. And now these days, as an adult, Danny,

263
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: if somebody said, hey, you're not gonna get your burger King,

264
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,319
Speaker 1: you'd probably be Okay, I'm good. I don't need the

265
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 1: burger king. I'm all right, I've moved on. I don't

266
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,199
Speaker 1: need the whopper, I'm fine and all that. But yeah,

267
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: I remember we were kids and we would be dragged.

268
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,559
Speaker 1: Usually Friday night there was a service and we'd go

269
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: there and we knew we realized at some point like

270
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: if we kind of futched around at the beginning, our

271
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: mom would let us go outside and just play. And

272
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: so we kind of went that direction as often as

273
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: we could. But it's a it's a back to school

274
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,319
Speaker 1: kind of experience Danny's word. It's kind of a back

275
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: to school thing, you know.

276
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, this past Tuesday, school started back up for my

277
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,079
Speaker 3: school district, so I had to set my alarm clock

278
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 3: for five point fifty am. You know, getting up for

279
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 3: me is not that difficult because in radio we work

280
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 3: a lot of weird hours. The time isn't what gets me.

281
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 3: It's the weather right now. What thirty eight degrees for

282
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 3: us is icy. It's hard in the thirty eight degree

283
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 3: weather for a southern California kid. Damn, I put two

284
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 3: layers of clothes on. I never do that because.

285
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,359
Speaker 4: I run hot greaty to bring the gas still.

286
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 3: Dark outside, I pull up to the school, I open

287
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 3: up the campus. I get into my classroom and usually

288
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 3: I'm in there for about ten minutes setting things up

289
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 3: before the first students start arriving. But the weirdest thing

290
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 3: ben is the first day back to school. I'm wondering

291
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 3: what mood the kids are going to be in. They

292
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 3: had a long winter break. Are they going to be

293
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 3: in a good mood? Are they going to be tired

294
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 3: and grouchy because they've been, you know, staying up until

295
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 3: two am every day and sleeping in until noon like

296
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 3: a lot of middle school kids do during their breaks.

297
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 3: I'm waiting, I'm waiting. I look up at the clock.

298
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 3: It's now seven twenty. No kids, it's now seven point thirty.

299
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 3: Not one student?

300
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 1: OK.

301
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 4: I looked.

302
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 3: I double checked the school calendar. I'm like, am I

303
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 3: here a day before school opens back up?

304
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 4: That would have been embarrassing. That would have been bad. Yeah,

305
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 4: you know.

306
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: Yeah.

307
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 3: The first student did not arrive to my classroom until

308
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 3: seven forty five am. That's only fifteen minutes before kids

309
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 3: start running around finding their home room. It was amazing,

310
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 3: and I think besides it being the first day back,

311
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 3: the cold weather must have made everybody run late and

312
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 3: stay inside their warm house and their warm bed for

313
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 3: longer than they should have. There's no other explanation. I've

314
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 3: never had. The first student arrived that late. I wound

315
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 3: up signing out three kids at eight fifteen am, three

316
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 3: students the whole morning.

317
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, as far as the cold weather stuff, it did

318
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 1: feel like this week, you know, California cold, which is

319
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: a different kind of cold. But I am proud to

320
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 1: say that the listener I talked about this, I think

321
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 1: last week on the podcast. Our friend Chris from North

322
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 1: Carolina was out here and he's from Wisconsin, and he

323
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: was complaining about how cold it was outside the FSR studios.

324
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: Of course we let him sit outside for about forty minutes,

325
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: but he was complaining about that. But yeah, it's our

326
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 1: version of Siberia. And unlike you, Danny, because you're actually

327
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 1: kind of an an adult. You're a father now, so

328
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 1: you're an adult. You're a grown up, and you know

329
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: that you should wear an extra coat. But I'm like, no,

330
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 1: I'm not. You know, I still think of myself as

331
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,199
Speaker 1: a job of the hut, where I never needed to

332
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 1: wear extra clothing at all, And so when I go out,

333
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: even on the cold weather, when it gets you know,

334
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 1: the night we work it over and I work over night,

335
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 1: and so we're there. I'm getting out driving around, going

336
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: to my car, and it's in the thirties. It's in

337
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 1: the thirties, which is cold. That's cold anywhere. Thirties is

338
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:23,879
Speaker 1: in the cold range. And it's funny at the TV show.

339
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 1: We get there and there's still a polar vortex going on.

340
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 1: It's cold and chili and all that stuff, and I'm like,

341
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna wear an extra jacket, so I just

342
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,640
Speaker 1: like walk in my clothes short sleeves, you know, sometimes shorts.

343
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,719
Speaker 1: And by the time I get from the parking lot,

344
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 1: the Abbott and Costello parking garage, to to the to

345
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 1: the NBC whatever news bureau there and I walk in,

346
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 1: I'm as cold as a frosted frog. I am. I mean,

347
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 1: it's like it's I've got like, you know that mucus

348
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: that kind of freezes on your nose because your nose

349
00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: runs because it's so cold. Like, dude, It's like, what

350
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: is this?

351
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 3: The people who brag about being in the coldest places

352
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 3: on our planet are interesting because, in fact, this came

353
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,479
Speaker 3: up on the Covino and Rich Show last week. One

354
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 3: of the topics was weird flexes. Things people brag about,

355
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 3: but it's kind of a strange brag. Sometimes people are

356
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 3: like minus ten right now, and somebody tries to one

357
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 3: up them, like, no, no, I'm up here in Canada

358
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 3: and it's minus twenty degrees. I know this has happened

359
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 3: on your show before, where you mentioned the weather or

360
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 3: something like that, and then you get a hundred messages

361
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 3: of people telling you what their weather is.

362
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, for sure. Well there's two things that happen,

363
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: and this is universal as long as I've been in radio.

364
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:50,719
Speaker 1: If you say the weather, you get hundreds of people

365
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 1: that will say it's either hotter where they are or

366
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,360
Speaker 1: colder where they are. And you say the price of gas.

367
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 4: Oh that's another good one.

368
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, the price. I'll say I can't believe how expensive

369
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 1: gas is in California. I will then get a parade

370
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,439
Speaker 1: of people saying, well, I live in Texas and I

371
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,159
Speaker 1: paid three dollars less a gallon than you pay it.

372
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: It's like it's that kind of thing. It's usually not

373
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: people saying it's more expensive, because it's hard to get

374
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 1: more expensive than the crappy California gas prices. It's usually

375
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 1: people saying, hey, yeah, so much cheaper.

376
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 3: And yeah they're bragging about how much cheaper their gas is.

377
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, exactly.

378
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 3: Like you loser, my gas is three point fifty nine. Meanwhile,

379
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 3: you and I are pumping six dollars and fifty cent gas.

380
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, and we think we get a deal because it

381
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,680
Speaker 1: was six dollars and sixty five cents the day before

382
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: at Costco. So we were like, we're saving fifteen cents

383
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,200
Speaker 1: a gallon, and like we're in really good shape. We're

384
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: in really good shape with that term of the week.

385
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: Are you ready for the term of the week, the

386
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: term of the week, Yeah, big bit, big bit. On

387
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,879
Speaker 1: the show all I love words and I like to

388
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: change up my lexicon. I was having a conversation with

389
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: Looney Tunes this week about how the sports media, just

390
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 1: media in general could be so much better if everyone

391
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 1: just worked on improving their their lexicon, just improving the

392
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: different versions of words we say. And I'm not perfect.

393
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,919
Speaker 1: I screw up a lot of words. In fact, I

394
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 1: get more emails from listeners, hey you mispronounced that word.

395
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 1: You know you screwed that word up. And of course

396
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,320
Speaker 1: in my head, I never make any mistakes. There's no

397
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 1: weak spots at all, And everything I say is the

398
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:37,719
Speaker 1: King's English. And people will point out, no, you screwed up,

399
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: that was a mistake, blah blah blah. You know.

400
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 3: Oh, and the great Rick D's taught you years ago

401
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,359
Speaker 3: to make those mistakes on purpose so that you know

402
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:47,920
Speaker 3: which listeners are paying attention.

403
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 1: Exactly one of the greatest pieces of advice I've ever gotten.

404
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 1: I love that to death. Rick D's radio legend, the

405
00:20:55,840 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 1: biggest DJ in LA for Top forty radio when I

406
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 1: was a kid and had a TV show, came up

407
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 1: with the number one song and all that, and yeah,

408
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 1: he came under. He used to record the first hour

409
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 1: of a show on Kiss FM, and and he would say, yeah,

410
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: just make make a mistake, leave it in there. People

411
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 1: hear mistakes and they love to correct you. But they

412
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,919
Speaker 1: also they would assume that it's a live show. They

413
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:24,359
Speaker 1: would assume it's a live show. So the term of

414
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 1: the week, which is I end of a word of

415
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 1: a week, but I think of it as a term.

416
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,440
Speaker 1: It's something that I've used quite a bit called hum

417
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 1: dinger um dinger That is a hum dinger of a.

418
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 4: Story that's not sure you can say that word on

419
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 4: the podcast.

420
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonn get in trouble. They're gonna get bleeped.

421
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 1: Are we gonna gonna be outlawed?

422
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:44,640
Speaker 4: Black List are talking about dingers again?

423
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 1: I know, I know, I know. My right hand was

424
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: getting a workout. So there's a couple of bogus stories.

425
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: But I love the bogus stories on the origin of

426
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 1: this word. And these have gone around the Internet for years,

427
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,200
Speaker 1: and one of them comes back somebody that was allegedly

428
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:06,239
Speaker 1: named Arnold Humdinger. And the legend, the internet legend, is

429
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 1: have you heard this? By the way, Danny, this is

430
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 1: a lot.

431
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 4: I feel like you're making this up.

432
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:11,919
Speaker 1: No, no, no, the Internet made it up. I just

433
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 1: I've seen it over the years, and at one point,

434
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 1: at one point in my life, I actually thought this

435
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: was actually true. I thought this was true.

436
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 5: So the story goes long ago, in the eighteen hundreds,

437
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 5: there was a guy named Arnold Humdinger who tried to

438
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 5: land his biplane on the summit of Mount.

439
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 1: Everest, very difficult to do, right, and since he attempted

440
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,919
Speaker 1: to do that, anything that was outrageous and over the

441
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: top has been called a hum Dinger. In honor of

442
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 1: good old Arnold humdinger. Unfortunately that is not true. That

443
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 1: is horse junk or bullshoy or whatever you want to say.

444
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: So the real story, the word humdinger is an American word,

445
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 1: so we can pat ourselves in the back. And the

446
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 1: original origin is not completely known, but it was first

447
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: used in the United States in the early nineteen hundreds.

448
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 1: It believes to date back to the late eighteen hundreds.

449
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: The theory behind it is, in those days in American English,

450
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 1: the term dinger was a slang term that if they

451
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 1: had Urban Dictionary back in like eighteen eighty seven, you know,

452
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 1: dinger would have been in there. Danny, that's a kid's term.

453
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:32,360
Speaker 1: Those kiddos used dinger back in the late eighteen hundreds,

454
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 1: and at that time it meant anything that was just

455
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: over the top superlative would be a dinger, and that's

456
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 1: just what it meant. And so they added hum to that,

457
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 1: and then they got hum dinger as an added bonus,

458
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 1: and then the word dinger is not used very much today.

459
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:57,199
Speaker 1: There's only one thing I know of they used the

460
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,119
Speaker 1: word dinger for, and I think we both know what

461
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,199
Speaker 1: that is. Right, when you think of a dinger, what

462
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: do you think do you think of baseball, right a dinger? Yeah, yeah,

463
00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: tany hitting a dinger. But that's it. They don't it

Speaker 4: Rubber ducky. I'm going to give Coha a bath.

480
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 3: And I think the only ducky has those of stuffed animals,

481
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,160
Speaker 3: so that might be kind of soggy.

482
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would be difficult. You gotta get him a

483
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,120
Speaker 1: rubber ducky, you know, I'll buy him one. I'm gonna

484
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 1: get him a rubber ducky. I'm gonna get I want

485
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: cold when he takes a bath. To have a rubber ducky,

486
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: you gotta have a rubber ducky. Man, we gotta get

00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 3: the bath and ever since then, he doesn't want to

495
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 3: go near the bathtub.

496
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,719

00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 1: the early days of LA Sports radio, this guy named

503
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: A Martinez, you know, a good dude. I love a

504
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: But he went into public radio, public broadcasting, and he's

505
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 1: made a lot of money. He still does it as

506
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 1: far as I know. It's like the West Coast Bureau

507
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: guy for public radio.

508
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 3: And yeah, he left the ESPN LA radio station to

509
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 3: do public radio.

510
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, we worked together back then, so I don't want

511
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: to say when. It was a long, long time ago,

512
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 1: but we were young punks and he went to public radio.

513
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,320
