It's just awesome. 19 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 1: It's we're so lucky that we live here and it's 20 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: that's the local track. It's just awesome. 21 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was my first time there, and I would 22 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 4: like to go back just to watch the horses run 23 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 4: sometime and bring the family there, especially Little CoA. Got 24 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 4: to start them early on betting on the horses. 25 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, you gotta have them bet the trifecta and all that, 26 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: the find the daily double and and get the racing form, 27 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: the whole, the full, all inclusive racing experience, which means 28 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: you got to get up at the Kraka daon, you 29 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 1: got to go to the track when the horses are 30 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: like working out, they're exercising in the morning. There's the 31 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: smell of horse shit at manure and there's like really 32 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,960 Speaker 1: wealthy billionaires on one side, and then there's people you 33 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: know making a peasants salary on the other. But they're 34 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: all there for the same the same mission, you know, 35 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: the same goal and all that. It's it's just an amazing, 36 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: amazing experience. And horse racing it's it's still a niche sport, 37 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: if you will, but I think it's designed. It's weird 38 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: how society has changed, but it's almost like it's becoming 39 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: more relevant because we have such short attention spans and 40 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: the way horse racing is designed, it's you know, sit around, 41 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: have some drinks, have some food, get a bed in, 42 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 1: and then the actual event itself is only a couple 43 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: of minutes. 44 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 3: Yeah. 45 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 4: I watch I watch all the major runs, and you're right, 46 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,519 Speaker 4: what's great about it is after it's over, you're like, oh, 47 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 4: look I got the entire rest of my day left. 48 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: You know what I used to do back in the day, 49 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: because years ago Premiere Networks, when we started Fox Sports Radio, 50 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: Premier Networks, which just runs Fox Sports Radio, iHeartMedia, they 51 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: had rights to the to the Kentucky Derby. Right, they 52 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: were the broadcaster and so they were the syndicator of 53 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: the Kentucky Derby. So I used to do this bit 54 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: of a year, we are going to play the entire 55 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: Kentucky Derby unedited right now. Wait, it was like, you know, 56 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: a minute forty eight seconds or something, you know, some 57 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: ridiculous short amount of time, a couple of minutes at 58 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 1: the most, And it was always always a funny bit. 59 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: So on this the Saturday Pod, and don't forget Benny 60 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 1: Versus the Penny, we're on in La today and all 61 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: over the place reairings. But the LA Show probably already 62 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: happened depending on when you're downloading this. Six am the 63 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: first showing, and then the Lakers are playing the Orlando Magic, 64 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: so that means we're bumped to late night in La. 65 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 1: So eleven PM. 66 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 3: That's when I watch it every week. 67 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, so we on eleven AM after or eleven pm. 68 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: Rather if the Lakers weren't playing, we'd have like probably 69 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: four other showings. But that's fine. 70 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 4: You're going to be the Laker post game party. 71 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, of course. Anyway, on this the it we have 72 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: Rudolph the Red Nose gas bag, timber Danny, you have 73 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: a tale to tell? 74 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 4: Yes, as Eminem once saying, say goodbye, say goodbye to Hollywood. 75 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, say goodbye the Hollywood, the glitz and glamour, show 76 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: business no more. But we start with this, So this 77 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: is a pod exclusive headline, Panic City. Is it true 78 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: that this week's episode of Benny Versus the Penny, still 79 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: airing today on regional cable distributed by NBC, was an 80 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 1: absolute roller coaster ride, white knuckle racist? How dare you. 81 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 3: Now? 82 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: As Paul Harvey used to say, you've heard the news, 83 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: but in a minute, you're about to hear the rest 84 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: of the story. So there once was a man named 85 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,359 Speaker 1: Ben or Benny, wasn't Isn't that how most fairytale start? 86 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: Once there once was a man, or once upon a 87 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: time or something like that. Yeah, So I don't want 88 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: to talk to the third person. But they doing the 89 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 1: overnight show and trying to juggle everything. It's been very hectic, 90 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: very hectic. I love it. It's great. I like to work. 91 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 1: I'm working a lot, maybe more than I want to work. 92 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: But anyway, So a few hours before the taping of 93 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: Benny Versus the Penny, I made the mistake of looking 94 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: in the mirror, which is never a good idea because 95 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: I'm ugly, it's never a good idea. What did I see? 96 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 3: Though? 97 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: This was different mirror, mirror on the wall.

Fortunately I had purchased for the TV show 143 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: a bunch of makeup, so it did. The inflammation did 144 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: go down, and it was still slightly read by the 145 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: time I showed up to Universal Studios, so I was 146 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: still a little red.

He's calm, he's 174 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 4: cool under pressure, He's always smiling. 175 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 3: Whenever I would work with him on the weekends. 176 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 4: He would fill in on the weekends sometimes, and it 177 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 4: was nice. It was refreshing to work with him, and 178 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 4: I would think to myself, Man, that would be cool 179 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 4: to work with him daily. 180 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 3: Rewind to a. 181 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 4: Little bit over a year ago, and when Covino and 182 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 4: rich and I got promoted to afternoons, we knew, Oh, 183 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 4: it's gonna be Dan Bayer, it's gonna be Dan Byer, 184 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 4: and it's gonna be John Ramos. And that was really 185 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 4: exciting for me because back in the day talk about 186 00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:00,719 Speaker 4: full circle when I was working on a campus myself, 187 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 4: because that's where Ramos is going. He's going to go 188 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 4: work at the high school full time and coach girls 189 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 4: softball for South Pasadena High. I was doing sports, I 190 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 4: was coaching. I was teaching in a second grade classroom, 191 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:21,079 Speaker 4: and then I would get out in the afternoon and 192 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 4: I would go make a food run before I would 193 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 4: have to come back to the campus to finish my work. 194 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 3: And what did I have in my car? 195 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 4: Am five seventy It was the J Moore Show, and 196 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 4: I got to hear Ramos play one hundred Drops in 197 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 4: an Hour and his really funny radio laugh. It was 198 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 4: a really good ensemble. It was fun to listen to 199 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 4: a lot of it didn't have to do with anything 200 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 4: with sports. But I liked that even back then it 201 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 4: was pop culture. It was Jay Moore just telling bad 202 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 4: jokes and just funny routines, funny callers and drops. I 203 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 4: love the show. I would listen to it almost every afternoon. 204 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 4: Fast forward get to Fox Sports Radio and the very 205 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 4: first shift that I got to train on in December 206 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 4: of twenty fourteen was the Jay Moore Show. Besides Jay's 207 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 4: little dogs running around the studio, the one thing that 208 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 4: stood out to me was how nice Ramos was. 209 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 3: So he trained me on the board. Uh, he trained 210 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 3: me how to do. 211 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 4: The drops for Fox the way Fox liked him because 212 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 4: I was coming from NBC Sports Radio and it was 213 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 4: a really cool experience. And then of course I was 214 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 4: on your show to kick off my career here at FSR. 215 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 4: Bobo trained me on your show. Well, so go on 216 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 4: the radioeah. So that's how it all started for me 217 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,079 Speaker 4: here at Fox Sports Radio. And so Ramos holds a 218 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 4: special place in my heart. They did a going away 219 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 4: party for him on Thursday night, and and it was 220 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 4: hard Ben Like I guess I saved my words for 221 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 4: on air. Several of our coworkers got up and made 222 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 4: little speeches but I couldn't help but think to myself. 223 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 3: As these speeches. 224 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 4: Were going and thousands of dollars of Buffalo wild wings 225 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 4: were being eaten, I was thinking to myself, why not 226 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 4: take all this money from all these drinks and wings, 227 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 4: give that to Ramos and say you're not going anywhere, dude. 228 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 3: Here's a little bonus. I'm gonna give you a little raise. 229 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 4: It's not how radio works, unfortunately, but if I was 230 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 4: in charge of things, if I ran broadcasting all across America, 231 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 4: I would give all broadcasters a big fat raise, and 232 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 4: I wouldn't let any of them go to any other 233 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 4: sideways jobs. So it bothers me personally because now I'm 234 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 4: gonna have to go through what you just went through, 235 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 4: which is a revolving door of technical producers, and no 236 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 4: one's really going to be able to replace Ramos. And 237 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 4: I've had some insomnia over it. Man, I'm not gonna lie. 238 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:05,079 Speaker 4: I think I might go on to Workmen's com Well. 239 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: Get the long term, get the long term. That's s 240 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 1: grit your teeth long term. But I love John. I've 241 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: known John many years. I knew him before Fox Sports Radio, 242 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: and so we were very excited when John came to 243 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio because it has proven guy in the 244 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: LA market, and it's hard to find people it is 245 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: you reference Danny that are positive. You know, there's a 246 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: lot of grumpy people just general. But in radio, there's 247 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: a lot of woe is meism? You know, why am 248 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: I not getting this? That and the other thing? 249 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, a bunch of moaning and groaning, as my grandpa 250 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 4: used to say, Yeah, and they're damned winding in your 251 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,719 Speaker 4: moaning and groaning exactly. 252 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 1: And to be fair, I was like that when I 253 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 1: was younger. But there's just a lot of people that 254 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 1: are just like, oh, this sucks. 255 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 3: You know. 256 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: It's there are much worse problems to have, much worse 257 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,559 Speaker 1: problems to have. We have one of the great jobs. 258 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 1: Even if you're not happy with what time you're working 259 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: or how much money you're making. Could always be worse, 260 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: could always be worse. But I you know, I'm disappointed 261 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: John's leaving. I feel, you know, he's a old school 262 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: radio guy from the old countries. I sent out on 263 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: on social media this week. He's an artistan and just 264 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: a positive guy. And as we talked about Danny, there's 265 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: not many of that those type of people left in 266 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: the business. Unfortunately, it's changed a lot. The old timers 267 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: are either leaving for other jobs or dying off, and 268 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: so it's just not Yeah, it's a tough one. And 269 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: also a lot of people don't want to, as you said, 270 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: pay the dues, work on holidays and all that. They don't. 271 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: I don't want you want me to work on a holiday. 272 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: What's wrong with you?

The business is open. There's customers that will 275 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: be in the store. There's actually a lot of people 276 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: that are lonely over the holidays. I always try to 277 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: work most of the holidays because there's people lonely. They 278 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: want to want to I have a friend, somebody to 279 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: hang out with on the radio, you know, and know 280 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: that some other person's alive and talking and jop in 281 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: and all that.

I'm sure it'll only take about eight or 285 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: nine months for you to figure out who's replacing John. 286 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: So I'm sure that will be a very get here. 287 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 4: So you're saying it will be resolved shortly and I'll 288 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 4: know who my technical producer is within the next two weeks. 289 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 1: I'm not complaining.

But that's fine, 368 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 1: that's all right. But she wasn't a better mood after 369 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: after that. 370 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 3: So that's good. 371 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: Is it bad that I feel like I can get 372 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: really good food at like a like a mom and 373 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: pop dive place as opposed to like the high end places. 374 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: Does that make me a bad person? 375 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:03,640 Speaker 3: I don't know. 376 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 4: I'm usually hungry after we leave an upscale or fancy 377 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 4: or type restaurant.

Last Saturday, my wife 445 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 4: dragged me to Costco. I don't think i'd been to 446 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 4: a Costco on a weekend in years. I had no 447 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 4: idea that there were that many samples out on a Saturday. 448 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: That's prime real estate. 449 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:34,640 Speaker 3: Holy shit. 450 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,919 Speaker 4: And when I told her she said, yeah, why do 451 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 4: you think Ben goes on the weekend.

Or where I used to live, 454 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 1: we had three costcos real close, so I'd hit three. 455 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,640 Speaker 1: It's like I'm Robin Banks. I'm going to different costcos 456 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 1: to see if they have different samples and like what they. 457 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 3: Have, and you you would have been in hog Heaven. 458 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 4: They had a pop up tent in the middle of 459 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 4: the Costco and some brand that makes rice and different 460 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 4: dishes to go along with their yellow rice. They were 461 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:11,880 Speaker 4: putting constantly these big cups of their samples out. They 462 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 4: were actually saying, don't be shy, there's four different samples, 463 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 4: try one of each. And so all these piggies were 464 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 4: going back and back and back. I'm telling you, I 465 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 4: had no idea that there was that much free food 466 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 4: at Costco. 467 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 3: Oh. 468 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, if you go at the right time here, you're 469 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: set up.

And I do understand 503 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: working the Overnight show that oftentimes people find the show 504 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 1: when they're down on their lock having, whether it be 505 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 1: relationship problems, medical problems, financial problem, all of the above. 506 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: So it's great when I hear that.
