Speaker 1: Kabooms. If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred
Speaker 1: minutes a week was enough, think again. He's the last
Speaker 1: remnants of the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness.
Speaker 1: He treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as
Speaker 1: the rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow. The Clearinghouse

Speaker 1: for women's glasses. Benn Maller on Fox, Ben Maller on Fox,
Speaker 1: and Danny you're on all those fine things, not on TikTok.
Speaker 1: We're not on TikTok. Yeah. I got the same handle
Speaker 1: on all those socials at Danny G Radio. And I
Speaker 1: heard mail mother Sucker that we got a lot of
Speaker 1: questions this weekend. You got a good amount, So let's
Speaker 1: get right to it. Strike up my man, o hi
Speaker 1: o Wow. It's first up on the mail bag. We
Speaker 1: go to Kevin in Kansas, a big supporter of this podcast.
Speaker 1: Kevin says, Dear Ben and Danny Gee in western Kansas,
Speaker 1: we are no stranger to weird, wacky winter weather. With
Speaker 1: your recent bout of winter weather there, it doesn't usually happen.
Speaker 1: I've been eager to hear both of your takes on
Speaker 1: how things went. Did people rush to buy bread and milk?
Speaker 1: Did people drive more crazily? How has work? How was
Speaker 1: work impacted? Inquiring minds would like to know, thank you.
Speaker 1: That's from Kevin. Well, you told a great story yesterday
Speaker 1: about your your your dad Danny, right and then the nonsense.
Speaker 1: And he's a little north of where we are. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but yeah, people drive crazy. There's a lot of people.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people that slow down, but there's
Speaker 1: always that one asshole that still thinks he's on the
Speaker 1: Autobahn and and doesn't mind the snow and just drives crazy.
Speaker 1: I haven't noticed people around where I am rushing to
Speaker 1: buy supplies. I guess out in the mountain communities where
Speaker 1: they really got hit though it's nasty, like in Big Bear,
Speaker 1: which is a big mountain snow resort in the in
Speaker 1: the LA area, they got it really bad and like
Speaker 1: people were stuck up there also for a long time
Speaker 1: with no supplies. So did you notice anything, Danny specifically
Speaker 1: to answer Kevin's question, No, I guess if we would
Speaker 1: have had our power out. Our power flickered a few
Speaker 1: times when the rain was coming down really bad, when
Speaker 1: it was hailing outside, and at that point my wife
Speaker 1: you said, oh, maybe we should go get some supplies. Yeah,
Speaker 1: which I think is a little too late. When it
Speaker 1: starts to flicker. I'm not an expert. But I think
Speaker 1: once it starts to flicker, that's usually not a good sign.
Speaker 1: That's usually not something's going well there. But what do
Speaker 1: I know? Well, I know all right, Thank you Kevin.
Speaker 1: We have Ozzy Wise from Western Australia. Next up on
Speaker 1: the mailback. He says, Hey, my mates Benny and Benny
Speaker 1: the Bopper and Daddy G Radio straight to the point
Speaker 1: this week, I am doing service on my car this
Speaker 1: week when the gear finally arrives, as it will be
Speaker 1: less than half price to do it myself than to
Speaker 1: take it to the mechanic. Have either of you thought
Speaker 1: about doing it yourself to save costs or as you
Speaker 1: both have newish cars, do you have to take it
Speaker 1: to a certified mechanic? Looking at you, Ben, and it's
Speaker 1: a lot simpler than people think. And he says also,
Speaker 1: let's have a roll call on daddy nicknames. So Ozzy
Speaker 1: was how many nicknames do you have? Daddy G? Daddy?
Speaker 1: We know the daddy G, Dandy G, Danny Garrettelli, the
Speaker 1: microphone throttler, oh, the microphone throwther Le's correct. So to answer,
Speaker 1: ozzywas question in my head? I fix everything via YouTube.
Speaker 1: I go on and you know, you go on YouTube
Speaker 1: and within three and a half five minutes, any problem
Speaker 1: is fixed. But I recall when I was getting the
Speaker 1: new mallarable bile the guy at the dealership, and maybe
Speaker 1: he was full of shit, and we have people that
Speaker 1: work in the car business that can help us out,
Speaker 1: but this guy was. He was telling us. He's like, well,
Speaker 1: you know, need to get the warranty because the way
Speaker 1: they designed these new cars, with all the technology, it's
Speaker 1: very tough for someone who's not a trained, certified mechanic
Speaker 1: to actually fix these cars. And they do that intentionally.
Speaker 1: It's great for the car business because this stuff doesn't
Speaker 1: last that long because it's technology and you have to
Speaker 1: use one of their mechanics to fix the stuff. And
Speaker 1: I looked at that, and then I got in the
Speaker 1: car and I looked at all the cameras that pop
Speaker 1: up when you turn right or turn left, and I
Speaker 1: looked at this, that and the other thing. I said,
Speaker 1: you know what, that's probably right, Like it's one thing
Speaker 1: to fix a nineteen fifty seven Chevy or something along
Speaker 1: those lines, but these new cars. Danny, Yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: know how on a YouTube video you can figure out
Speaker 1: like what connects to the camera, which goes to the battery.
Speaker 1: But you've got to have a certain chip to make
Speaker 1: it all work. But I've thought about doing it. But
Speaker 1: what about you, Danny. Now you have to worry about
Speaker 1: the electronics nowadays just as much as the actual motor.
Speaker 1: And to your point, when you go nowadays to Costco
Speaker 1: or best Buy a place like that, and you buy
Speaker 1: a seventy inch television, well they don't may come the
Speaker 1: way they used to. That's why you can get a
Speaker 1: TV now. Remember those TVs when they first came out,
Speaker 1: how much were they thousands of dollars? For sure? They
Speaker 1: were saying, yeah, now they're hundreds of dollars, but they're flimsier.
Speaker 1: And I remember the guy at best Buy telling me, hey,
Speaker 1: with electronics nowadays, everything's cheaper, but make sure you get
Speaker 1: the warranty. Imagine those selling a product and saying, well,
Speaker 1: as we understand it, you should enjoy the product, but
Speaker 1: it's not gonna last you got it. And I always
Speaker 1: thought that was just bullshit. And when they try to
Speaker 1: sell you the warranty or the extended care package, I've
Speaker 1: I've always been of the mind that's just the way
Speaker 1: they make a lot of money because most people don't
Speaker 1: actually use those warranties. It's kind of like, I read
Speaker 1: a book about infomercials because I'm a loser, and I
Speaker 1: used to love late night infomercials when I was growing up,
Speaker 1: and they talked about the lifetime warranty that a lot
Speaker 1: of these products would would put on. You'd watch a
Speaker 1: late night infomercial. It's like, you don't buy this workout
Speaker 1: equipment lifetime warranty, if anything breaks, send it back. We'll
Speaker 1: send you another one. And they said the reason they
Speaker 1: did that is because they looked at the percentage of
Speaker 1: people that would be more willing to buy because they thought, well,
Speaker 1: this is pretty cool. I'm getting a lifetime warranty and
Speaker 1: if anything breaks, I'll send it back. And then they
Speaker 1: looked at the percentage of people that would actually keep
Speaker 1: the receipt, keep all the paperwork that you need to
Speaker 1: have to actually get the warranty to use to be used,
Speaker 1: and people just they aren't. They don't do it. They're
Speaker 1: not motivated to follow through with all that. So it's
Speaker 1: great because you sell more products. Number one, and number two,
Speaker 1: you almost never you almost never have to actually use
Speaker 1: the warranty when you have a lifetime warranty because they
Speaker 1: always put like small print that minute should nanny where
Speaker 1: they're like, Okay, you can use the warranty, but you
Speaker 1: have to keep the receipt and every time you get
Speaker 1: work done on the product, you have to have a
Speaker 1: receipt of that. And if you don't have all of
Speaker 1: the above, you're fucked. Get out of here. Like how
Speaker 1: a lot of cars use the flimsy Uh what is it?
Speaker 1: It's almost like it's like a yeah, you push them in,
Speaker 1: you know, what's that musical? That's the what am I
Speaker 1: thinking of the music instrument? You know? Or you go
Speaker 1: like accordion? Accordion? Yes, the cars are like accordions and
Speaker 1: yeah and that that Yeah, that pisses me off too
Speaker 1: because you get an a fender bender, it's like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's a well, you can't really see the damage. But underneath,
Speaker 1: how do we five thousand dollars We're gonna have to
Speaker 1: replace that entire panel? Yeah, where you're going to need
Speaker 1: every piece of currency, every coin you've ever made in
Speaker 1: your life. Uh, and you must secure a bag just
Speaker 1: to pay for the repairs. That's it, as Marshawn Lynch
Speaker 1: said years ago. Uh, take take care of y'all chicken. Right.
Speaker 1: That's uh, that's it. Wow. Anyway, thank you, thank you,
Speaker 1: Ozzy Wise. Barry in nash Vegas writes in says yo
Speaker 1: yo mob Benny, and Danny Gee says Ben, So you
Speaker 1: bought a new to you car? Is this a color
Speaker 1: that Steve Harvey would marvel over? Well? As you know?
Speaker 1: And Barry of course referencing for those that are new
Speaker 1: to the podcast, the Great Steve Harvey, the modern day entertainer,
Speaker 1: the greatest entertainer of our lives right now. Steve Harvey
Speaker 1: man can host award shows, can host game shows, radio programs.
Speaker 1: He does it all. He's a one man band, a
Speaker 1: great Steve Harvey. And he briefly worked at the iHeart
Speaker 1: Building in LA and he was doing his morning show
Speaker 1: when I was getting off the air. And so for
Speaker 1: a couple of months, Steve Harvey, television and Radio's most
Speaker 1: famous man, would park in our building and walk in
Speaker 1: in a jumpsuit with a security guard armed with a
Speaker 1: gun and would walk in and do his show and
Speaker 1: all that stuff. And at one point I was walking out,
Speaker 1: he was walking in. It was like ships passing in
Speaker 1: the night. A couple of radio legends, well one radio
Speaker 1: legend and some fat guy. And he walked by and
Speaker 1: he looked at the Harvey's fat Now, dare you So
Speaker 1: he looked at the Malamobile. No, that means you're the legend, dick. No,
Speaker 1: I'm not a legend. So he looked. He looked at
Speaker 1: the Malamobile, as I liked it, and he was talking
Speaker 1: to his guy with the security guy, And that was
Speaker 1: right there. That was the moment that the Malamobile. It
Speaker 1: wasn't chump change, it wasn't. I didn't even know he
Speaker 1: was talking about your car, though he was. There was
Speaker 1: no other car. You know, you've been in that parking
Speaker 1: lot at three in the morning. There's no other car
Speaker 1: in that parking lot three thirty in the morning. Maybe
Speaker 1: the security guard said, look, they make the losers park
Speaker 1: way far away from you, and he said, I like that. No,
Speaker 1: he liked the color. Hey liked the blue in the Malamobile.
Speaker 1: He loved the bull bullshit. There's no bullshit. I would
Speaker 1: not lie about something involving the great Steve Harvey, the
Speaker 1: great entertainer of our time. But no, there's no you know,
Speaker 1: there's no color. It's just a generic it's a generic color,
Speaker 1: and he says, care to share the name plate of
Speaker 1: the car that you purchased? Yeah, I think I'm good
Speaker 1: on that. Very Unfortunately, some some certain certain people that
Speaker 1: love the show. I think I'll hold off on that
Speaker 1: because they sometimes kind of mess around with my business.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Danny occasionally car panel with
Speaker 1: a key I'm your number one fan. Yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 1: think I'm okay. I think I think I'm all right
Speaker 1: on that. But I appreciate it, and I wish it
Speaker 1: wasn't like that. But I've created a good little cultivated here.
Speaker 1: We both have cultivated a good little following, and a
Speaker 1: certain percentage of those people take things a little bit
Speaker 1: too far. Next up, Kyrie in Okac writes in he says,
Speaker 1: dearest Ben and Danny, g how's it going. My real
Speaker 1: question is about logos. I would love for you to
Speaker 1: have your own official Ben mallor logo or mallor militia
Speaker 1: to put on merchandise or tattoos. How about that, Danny? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it's some tattoos here, that's next level. I
Speaker 1: remember the day there was this guy called Main Main
Speaker 1: Event mister. You know, he's mister the main event was
Speaker 1: the guy's name. I think he was called that, and
Speaker 1: he called Fox Sports Radio for years. He passed away
Speaker 1: a few years ago. He loved Tony Bruno. He got
Speaker 1: a Tony Bruno tattoo and I thought, Wow, that's wild man,
Speaker 1: That's like the next level. I'm still blown away by that.
Speaker 1: He liked tattoos, so tattoos. But that means the coroner
Speaker 1: was like, who the hell is Tony Bruno? Yeah, because
Speaker 1: they had to write down all the tattoos anyway, um,
Speaker 1: he says. The other real question is what are you guys?
Speaker 1: What are your guys favorite logos and all of sports
Speaker 1: besides your favorite teams, which is obviously a given obviously
Speaker 1: ha ha. As always, you guys are the absolute best
Speaker 1: podcast in all of the land. Much love from the
Speaker 1: real Kyrie. He don't playing Dallas, He's an okse and
Speaker 1: Kyrie that Oklahoma City Thunder team. I watched some of
Speaker 1: that Laker Thunder game the other night. Holy crap, there
Speaker 1: is not one player worth their assault right now for
Speaker 1: the Thunder as Shane Gilgas Alexander was out with an injury,
Speaker 1: and that is a nameless, faceless group of flotsam and Jetsam.
Speaker 1: I love that game. Great job, Okac. Greatest logo though,
Speaker 1: I you know, I love and it's part of it's
Speaker 1: When I was a kid, I was on this team
Speaker 1: in Little League. The Milwaukee Brewers logo with the M
Speaker 1: and the B. Love it. The Glove logo, you know,
Speaker 1: the glove logo. Love that one. Also, the Montreal Expo's logo.
Speaker 1: Same thing. It's got the M and the E in
Speaker 1: the logo. I love that. I just love the way
Speaker 1: it is. I like some of the old school logos,
Speaker 1: the old Toronto Blue Jays. When I was a kid,
Speaker 1: I always thought that was kind of cool. Um, China,
Speaker 1: these are all baseball. There's a bunch. I love the
Speaker 1: old Broncos logo and football. The horse, the original you know,
Speaker 1: the one on the helmet and all that. I thought
Speaker 1: that was cool. You don't because you're a Raider fan.
Speaker 1: Um yeah, I mean there's there's a few few others.
Speaker 1: I get a kick out of a LEPrecon, the Celtics LEPrecon.
Speaker 1: I think that's just kind of hockey. A guy a
Speaker 1: LEPrecon with a basketball and like a cigar or not
Speaker 1: a cigar, a pipe. I think that's that's pretty funny.
Speaker 1: What about you, Danny, anything pop up here? Any logos
Speaker 1: that you Oh? Yeah, when I was a teenager, I
Speaker 1: had a Georgetown hat where the g was like made
Speaker 1: out of felt and was three D It's stuck out
Speaker 1: of the hat a little bit. Yeah that was cool.
Speaker 1: So I would always rock some Georgetown for the gum
Speaker 1: and followed Patrick Ewing because of that. As a little kid,
Speaker 1: Patrick Ewing, the man could work up a sweat just
Speaker 1: by thinking about stepping onto the court. Unfortunately, he doesn't
Speaker 1: work up a sweat coaching Georgetown right now? Dare you? Um?
Speaker 1: You know? Also, my very first baseball glove was a
Speaker 1: Joe Morgan signature glove passed down to me by my uncle. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't I remember him. I don't even remember him
Speaker 1: with the phillies. I don't. Well, at least that's when
Speaker 1: the baseball glove was made because it said Joe Morgan Phillies. Okay,
Speaker 1: And I love that powder blue with the with the
Speaker 1: maroon red philly. Oh yeah, that is a good looking uniform. Yeah,
Speaker 1: those uniforms. Ever since I was a little kid, I
Speaker 1: thought those uniforms were nice next to the Raiders uniform
Speaker 1: of course, with our Dodger Blue. We're not allowed to
Speaker 1: say our favorite teams, but I've always thought those uniforms
Speaker 1: were the best in sports. Not a Phillies fan by
Speaker 1: any means, but I really like their uniforms. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: whole era of powder Blues. The Blue Jays had some
Speaker 1: cool I mentioned the Brewers already. The you know, the
Speaker 1: Mariner's early logo was pretty cool. They had the trident,
Speaker 1: the old Seattle Mary. Yeah, that's right. That was kind
Speaker 1: of a cool thing that they they got rid of.
Speaker 1: Let's move on. Thank you, Kyrie, though you're the man
Speaker 1: I appreciate Kyrie. And Pierre from Springfield Mass writes in
Speaker 1: on the mail bag, friend of Alf the alien O Pinter,
Speaker 1: who has been shunned by the Great Eddie Judas Garcia. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we learned that Eddie Garcia muted Alf the alien O Piner.
Speaker 1: What oh no, that is an act of war, Danny
Speaker 1: g That isn't You cannot do that. Listen, Alf the
Speaker 1: alien O Piner is a samurai in the Mallard Militia.
Speaker 1: You do not mess with a samurai because you end
Speaker 1: up with a sword. You do not do that. That's
Speaker 1: a bad job by you. Well, what happened after Eddie
Speaker 1: did that, he broke his toe. That is correct, you think,
Speaker 1: guys Karma, I think so yeah. And we learned, and
Speaker 1: this is some advanced calculus here little geometry, that the
Speaker 1: toe does impact the vocal cords. So I didn't know that.
Speaker 1: I had no idea. I learned that from doctor Eddie Garcia.
Speaker 1: This week. I'm a doctrue, Pierre says Ben. We have
Speaker 1: all enjoyed your tales of Bella the Wonder Dog, but
Speaker 1: have there been any internal discussions at the Maller Mansion
Speaker 1: to add another pet to form voltron? Also, does Daddy
Speaker 1: g have any pets, so we have discussed getting another dog.
Speaker 1: Bella is in the doggy retirement home at this point.
Speaker 1: She's still here, but she's at the age now where
Speaker 1: she cannot go downstairs. She can go upstairs, but she
Speaker 1: can't go downstairs, which presents a problem because we have
Speaker 1: a fair amount of stairs at the Mallard Mansion. So
Speaker 1: she's pretty much locked in her retirement home and it's
Speaker 1: it's one room. She's got access to the outside, she's
Speaker 1: got food, water and all that, but she can't roam freely.
Speaker 1: That and the fact that she has no control over
Speaker 1: her bowels or urinating, so that's also a problem. But
Speaker 1: we have decided also that Bella we want her to
Speaker 1: enjoy the final years of her life, however long she
Speaker 1: has left. And so we've determined we're gonna wait and
Speaker 1: then once Bella goes to the kennel in the sky,
Speaker 1: and at that point we'll probably get another another dog.
Speaker 1: But Danny, any pets for you, Yeah, we have two.
Speaker 1: We have Daisy the dog. She has a chalky half Chihuahua,
Speaker 1: half Yorky. She's going on six years old. Her brain
Speaker 1: is the size of a pee, which means she's a
Speaker 1: really good guard dog because any little noise down by
Speaker 1: the front door and she goes berserk, a little door alarm.
Speaker 1: And she could be sweet at times, but she also
Speaker 1: can be a snapper dog at night, especially if I
Speaker 1: reach too suddenly to touch my significant other. She snaps
Speaker 1: at my hand. She thinks she's a guard dog, a
Speaker 1: protector for my wife. Eat get away from me. That's
Speaker 1: not annoying at all. That is not at all, but
Speaker 1: I'm used to it now. And at least her teeth
Speaker 1: hurt for a second, but they don't break the skin,
Speaker 1: which is good. Then my boy Mac. If you followed
Speaker 1: me on social media, you've probably seen pictures from time
Speaker 1: to time. He is a very cool silver and black
Speaker 1: American short hair and he looks like a panther. He
Speaker 1: is a badass. He's also going on six years old.
Speaker 1: And the two of them they do nap next to
Speaker 1: each other. But again at night, if he jumps up
Speaker 1: on the bed, she snaps at him and bites his ass.
Speaker 1: Don't do a lost cap magnet pencil. Next, any plans
Speaker 1: to add more pets? Any plan? Well, you're adding a child. Yeah,
Speaker 1: as everybody knows, it's not good timing to add a
Speaker 1: new pet with a new baby. Yeah, probably don't need that.
Speaker 1: Next up, Chris in Maraccaa, Iowa rights, and he says, Ben,
Speaker 1: I just learned of the near fatal Steve Yeager accident
Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy six when a shattered bat shard struck
Speaker 1: him in the neck. I haven't been able to find
Speaker 1: video of it. Do you know where to find it
Speaker 1: or have you heard any stories about it? He says,
Speaker 1: ps Go Raiders and good Ritten's car. So to lead
Speaker 1: off here, Chris, Yes, I have heard about the Steve
Speaker 1: Yeager bat It was before my time. I was a
Speaker 1: little kid when that happened. And the reason I know
Speaker 1: about it is when I covered the Dodgers, and this
Speaker 1: is in the early nineties. Steve Yeager would pop up
Speaker 1: every once in a while and show up for batting
Speaker 1: practice or some kind of an event, and occasionally the
Speaker 1: story would be brought up about you remember what happened
Speaker 1: to Yeager? He almost died and all this crazy, crazy
Speaker 1: stuff back in the nineteen seventies. And I have not
Speaker 1: seen any video. I'm sure there's probably video that exists,
Speaker 1: but I don't know for sure. I mean not every
Speaker 1: game was on television in nineteen seventy six, so it
Speaker 1: is possible there is no video. But this was back
Speaker 1: when Walter Alston was the manager of the Dodgers, and
Speaker 1: the legend is that he got hit Steve Garvey. It
Speaker 1: was Bill Russell was the one that it was his
Speaker 1: bat and Yeager was in the on deck circle and
Speaker 1: Bill Russell, the great Dodger shortstop, He had a grounder
Speaker 1: to third base. The bat broke and flew back and
Speaker 1: Yeager had no chance. The sharp edge impales this guy
Speaker 1: right in the in the side of his neck. He's
Speaker 1: been stabbed with a with a flying knife and everyone
Speaker 1: starts freaking out, and Bill Bueller, the Dodger trainer, has
Speaker 1: been credited with saving the life much like the Buffalo
Speaker 1: Bill's guy that almost died Tomorrow Hamlin. And so the
Speaker 1: Dodger trainer came out and Steve Garvey. The legend is
Speaker 1: he had a towel he covered up the blood for
Speaker 1: because he didn't want the people in stadium to see it.
Speaker 1: And obviously you don't want the guy to bleed to death.
Speaker 1: And anyway, but I have not seen the most important part.
Speaker 1: The Dodgers beat the Padres that day four to one.
Speaker 1: There you go, that's all. Yeah, you go. The Dodgers
Speaker 1: won the game September six, nineteen seventy six. Look at you,
Speaker 1: look at you. So But to answer your question, I've
Speaker 1: not seen video. I hadn't really thought about it, Chris,
Speaker 1: until you brought it up. It is one of those
Speaker 1: stories that's kind of gotten lost. Yeah, time and that happens.
Speaker 1: And a quick Google search doesn't show any video, but
Speaker 1: he shows still photos. Yeah, and am I the only one.
Speaker 1: When I was younger, when I heard the name Steve Yeager,
Speaker 1: I thought of the pilot, you know, the pilot Yeager.
Speaker 1: I think you're the only one. Really. Some alcoholics might
Speaker 1: think of the drink Yeager, mister, No, wasn't there there
Speaker 1: was a Oh, Chuck Yeager. That was the guy. I
Speaker 1: was just figured Chuck. Yeah, you know I remember Chuck Yeager. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think he just passed away a couple of years ago.
Speaker 1: He lived to be almost a hundred. But Mike from
Speaker 1: Fullerton writes in on the mail bag. He says, hey, Ben,
Speaker 1: before buying another boring card to replace the malon will Be, Oh,
Speaker 1: why didn't you go with the scooter instead? He says.
Speaker 1: He says they get better mileage and will make the
Speaker 1: long trip from the north Woods to the studio a
Speaker 1: lot more fun. I know Danny ge will Be will
Speaker 1: back me up on this after the great experience he
Speaker 1: had with that one at the Super Bowl. Also, how
Speaker 1: much are both of you looking forward to the World
Speaker 1: Baseball Classic? He says? Will your shows be covering it?
Speaker 1: Or will I have to look elsewhere to hear how
Speaker 1: Mike Trout and the rest of Team USA are doing?
Speaker 1: God that America? Yeah, very funny, very funny, Mike. This
Speaker 1: is as an Angel fan, this is all you have
Speaker 1: is the world baseball classy, he says. Also an update
Speaker 1: on deep fake porno, a Twitch streamer is already suing
Speaker 1: a website for hosting deep fake naked videos for her.
Speaker 1: Will you guys be upset or flattered if someone made
Speaker 1: a deep fake video of you naked? Yeah? So, first
Speaker 1: of all, I would be flattered because it would look
Speaker 1: better than I look, I would assume, so that would
Speaker 1: be flattering. I can't imagine it would be uglier than
Speaker 1: I look, so I think I would be happy with that,
Speaker 1: So I would be okay, Well, what about your Danny
Speaker 1: ge It would be fine. So this would be the
