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
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,480
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 cutter the same as the

6
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,480
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse.

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 1: Wow.

Speaker 2: The clearing House of Hot takes break free for something special.

Speaker 1: We slide in to a Friday, a brand new weekend.

13
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 1: Otherwise we wouldn't be here doing this podcast unless it

14
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 1: was a brand new weekend. But we're here again, hanging out,

15
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 1: and we thank you for listening. We know today is

16
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: a very difficult day to pry away people to listen

17
00:00:54,040 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: because it is day two of the Madness of March Tournament,

18
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: which if you're into gambling, or you like college of basketball,

19
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: or maybe just like watching random sporting events all day,

20
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 1: a lot of people take the Thursday and Friday off

21
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 1: the They say the two greatest days if you love

22
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:21,679
Speaker 1: basketball and gambling, the two greatest days are these two

23
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 1: because there's games all day long from if we're on

24
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 1: the West coast from like nine in the morning all

25
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: the way up until ten o'clock at night, so it's

26
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: it's March madness. Are you into?

27
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 4: I'm not.

28
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 1: I get to I'm watching these games. And then I

29
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 1: did a monologue last night about the tournament. But I'm

30
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: not really feeling and I don't.

31
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 2: I don't.

32
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: I'm not really feeling the tournament.

33
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 4: I mean, it doesn't consume me. But as a big

34
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 4: sports fan, it's fun to follow along and see how

35
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 4: you do with all your guessing and small bit of

36
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 4: research you did. Like for two hours, I clicked on

37
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 4: all the air quote experts for each game and saw

38
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 4: the pros and cons of picking either side and who

39
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 4: the experts thought would win. And then of course you

40
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 4: got to go. You can't just go with all favorites,

41
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 4: so you got to pick some Cinderella teams. And you

42
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 4: don't want to be a douche who has like a

43
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 4: number one versus number two up at the top versus

44
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 4: a one and a two again for the final four.

45
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: Well that's how they get you, though, That's how they

46
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: get you can't pick all the favorites. You realize most years,

47
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: if you pick the favorites, you will end up winning

48
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: like seventy of the bets.

49
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 4: True, if there's always one Cinderella though, there's usually one

50
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 4: Cinderella team that gets somewhat deep into the tournament.

51
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I hope you didn't bet on Nevada yesterday,

52
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: as I did.

53
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 4: I had two teams that already jacked up. I'm sure

54
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 4: you want to hear about my bracket right now.

55
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 1: Yes, And one thing we love is people's brackets. It's

56
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,279
Speaker 1: great radio. Absolutely. I had two podcasts.

57
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 4: I had two losses on opening day of the tournament

58
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 4: BYU and Nevada. Yeah.

59
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: Well, Nevada though, Steve Alford, the old Bruin forever is

60
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 1: going to be a Indiana hoosier or what for me?

61
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: But Steve Alford and Nevada one of the epic March

62
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: Madness choke jobs. Seventeen points man, seventeen point lead they lost.

63
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, at one point they had gone on like a

64
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 4: twenty four to four run, and I thought all money

65
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 4: on this one. Nope.

66
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Now the big story of the week that trump

67
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 1: the tournament. Now, we don't do sporty here. This is

68
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 1: not a sporty podcast, But I don't think this is

69
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: actually sporty. This is like mafios so scambling. Ah, yes,

70
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: scandal is so good. I love Scan. I did not

71
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 1: expect to get a Dodger scandal. I was. It was

72
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: why I was sorting to Jason and Harmon when I

73
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 1: was They were leaving and I was coming into the

74
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: studio and they were like, are you gonna watch the

75
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: Dodger game? Are you gonna be up for the Dodger Oh, yeah,

76
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: of course I'm gonna be up. It's after the show.

77
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna check that out. And and then

78
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: we were like, well, what's gonna happen as well? I'm

79
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: sure somebody will get hurt by the time I get home.

80
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: I didn't realize though, that it was Otani that would

81
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: be in upheaval right, that there would be this this

82
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: turbulence with Otani. But I will tell you this though, Dan,

83
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: I know, I did another monologue last night about it.

84
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: I'm sure this will be I heard it.

85
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 4: I heard it your Thursday in your Wednesday into Thursday show.

86
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,359
Speaker 4: I was all ears. I was listening.

87
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. And so the feeding frenzy that we've not gotten

88
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: that I don't feel like this is a full feeding frenzy.

89
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: I had an interesting conversation with somebody in the media

90
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: who and by the way, this story is so crazy.

91
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: I was getting people that work in news media that

92
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 1: were casual friends of mine that were sending me message

93
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: it was going on with Otani. You know anything about Altani?

94
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 1: What's going on? I was like, well, I don't really.

95
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 1: I mean, everyone I know is in Korea with the

96
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 1: Dodgers this week, so I didn't really I'm not talking

97
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: to them on the phone while they're in Korea, so

98
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: I don't really know exactly what's going on. They're like,

99
00:04:58,320 --> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 1: they're trying.

100
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 4: To get tap on the podcast immediately.

101
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so so this is like a wide ranging

102
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,719
Speaker 1: but the whole scandal element. People love scandals and people

103
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: it's funny because people, Ah, I don't like scandals. I

104
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: don't like but people love scandals. They take pleasure out

105
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: of it that there's somebody that is doing something. It's

106
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 1: not damn, somebody's in trouble, right, it's titillating, it's great

107
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 1: and all that. And then either way, either you're excited

108
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: because they get punished or you're happy because they got

109
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: away with it. But it it does work as a

110
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 1: nice distraction.

111
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, And I saw Padre fans all over social

112
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 4: media doing cartwheels and celebrating as if they did something awesome.

113
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: Yeah. My favorite, though, is the Yankee fans and the

114
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 1: Giant fans and the Phillies and all these teams that

115
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: were sucking the toes like a high school kid in

116
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 1: Oklahoma for licking them for yam you know, for Yamamoto

117
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: and Oton. All these teams that wanted Oton right they were,

118
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 1: and they they didn't get him, and they were caught

119
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: flat footed. And so now they're like, they're like celebrating

120
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 1: the possible demise of and he is lucky he's not

121
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 1: a football player because in football, although not even as

122
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: much lately, but remember there was that stretch where if

123
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: this happened and involved a football player, you would be

124
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 1: put on the commissioner's exemplst until we figure out what's

125
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: going on. But there's not even any talk of that.

126
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 1: They're like, no, it's a it's an odd it's an

127
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: odd story considering uh, the magnitude of that that for

128
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: so long was the the ultimate final frontier with gambling.

129
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,799
Speaker 1: Of course most and I love gambling, but you can't

130
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: be having the people in the sport betting kind of

131
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,479
Speaker 1: obvious here, even though baseball is fully in bed as

132
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: a gambling operation.

133
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 4: So it's yeah. So I think there's an underlying topic here,

134
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 4: and that is why the hell is gambling not legal

135
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 4: in the state of California.

136
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 1: Well, and I blamed the voters the other night because

137
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: this should have been legal. It is the casinos, the

138
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: Indian casinos in California blocked the legislation because we know

139
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: people are easily manipulated, and that's why there's so much

140
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: money in politics, because human beings are weak, and if

141
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: you spend enough money in advertising for a political either

142
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: pro or against something, you can get it passed. That's

143
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: why it's usually the person that has the most money

144
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: wins an election, not necessarily because that they're the greatest candidate,

145
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: but because they can brainwash people to vote a certain way.

146
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: And the people behind the Native American Indian casinos in California,

147
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: they wanted more control. This is what I was told.

148
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm completely wrong, but I was from I understand

149
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: they wanted more control of the California sports wagering market.

150
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: And if that law had passed, it would have been

151
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: the big companies like DraftKings and fan duel that would

152
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: have had more more control than them, and so they're

153
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 1: they're going to have it pass, but they're gonna have

154
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: new legislation that will have them in control. It's all

155
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: it's about who's in control of the money. It's always

156
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: about the money. But that's the thing. If this had

157
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: been legal, Uh, it would have been a thinking. But

158
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: you know the whole point. Listen, it's like the whole

159
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 1: drug dealer thing. Right, if you go down to cvs

160
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: and buy drugs, everything's good, right, but yeah, you know,

161
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: the neighborhood drug dealer. You can't be doing that, right,

162
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: You can't, you know, because you gotta get you gotta

163
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:40,719
Speaker 1: get tax money out of.

164
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 4: It, exactly. You have to have a certificate that way

165
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 4: the money flows to the right people.

166
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: If Otani and his guy paid taxes so our politicians

167
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 1: could waste that money, that's fine. But oh, you know,

168
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: you can't just do it. It's not even a neighborhood bookie.

169
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 1: No neighbor back in the day, I might have known

170
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 1: some guys that ran book in the neighborhood. And they're

171
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 1: not taking action at that level. They're not. They can't,

172
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: they can't cover it. So you're telling millions of dollars.

173
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: That's a high end. That's a bougie situation, right, That's

174
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: not your normal run of the mill situation. And the

175
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: sports writers though, the people that cover these the sports like,

176
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of street smarts, you know, they

177
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: just they This is one of my problems.

178
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 4: With a ton of mo though.

179
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, they are the moral But the thing

180
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 1: that drives me nuts is they they just believe whatever

181
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: these these teams say, or in this case, the lawyers

182
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: who are being paid by oh toney. And I don't know,

183
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on, but I do know

184
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,959
Speaker 1: we're not getting the whole story. I do know that

185
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: that there's more, and the story has already changed, right,

186
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 1: And I'm of the agent and I'm probably outdated now,

187
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 1: but I'm of the age that you're supposed to assume

188
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 1: nothing in question everything. Now it is, it's backwards, it's

189
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: never questioned anything, and assume everything is right. You know,

190
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:17,839
Speaker 1: there's no bad stuff going on, everything's great, and we'll

191
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: see what happens. But if Baseball doesn't pursue this, the

192
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 1: only way anything will come of it is if the

193
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: Feds go after Otani. By the letter of law, a

194
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 1: wire transfer that goes to pay off an illegal gambling

195
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 1: debt is punishable by up to two years in jail,

196
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 1: up to his weasel terminology. So that alone is a

197
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: federal violation. Now Otani's claiming that he didn't know that

198
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: he was unaware of the situation, But how do you

199
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 1: get someone to send a couple five hundred thousand dollars

200
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:56,679
Speaker 1: checks or wire transfers?

201
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 4: Do you know what the actual crime is? Is it

202
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 4: wired transfer daring money to an illegal operation?

203
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: Uh? Yeah, Well, so there's the federal if you if

204
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:12,439
Speaker 1: you knowingly, I don't even know if the word knowing these,

205
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 1: it's a federal law that if you if you wire

206
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: transfer money, it's a heagh. They took down the mob,

207
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: right though, you know, using wired transfers or whatever they

208
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: call it, going across state lines or whatever. And so

209
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 1: as I read it and as I understand it, it's

210
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 1: it's just if you knew you were sending money on

211
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 1: a wire that was going to be used to pay

212
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 1: off an illegal gambling situation, that is, you violated federal law,

213
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 1: and it's it it's two years. But but who knows

214
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: if it's deeper than that, right, you know, this guy.

215
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:50,320
Speaker 1: Otani and this guy were tight for over a decade.

216
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 1: I mean, it's hard to imagine that they didn't talk.

217
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 1: Even if Otani wasn't betting, it's almost impossible to think

218
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 1: that he didn't know what was going on, Right, this

219
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 1: guy was justitting on big soccer.

220
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 4: Games and soccer football college football. Let's just hope that

221
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:11,079
Speaker 4: no MLB gambling was involved and there are no traces

222
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 4: of digital gambling slips with Well, they would use numbers,

223
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 4: like you said on your monologue, right.

224
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't use names. Well that's what they're supposed

225
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: to do. They don't use and because you know the names,

226
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 1: people obviously can track down. But yeah, that would be much.

227
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 1: I would say it would be bigger than Pete Rose.

228
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was going to say the name Pete Rose

229
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 4: was trending for two days.

230
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: But I would say this would be bigger on the days.

231
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 1: You know. In let's go down the parallel dimension, Danny

232
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 1: in the Twilight Zone, multiple dimensions. There's a dimension where

233
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 1: al Tani was betting and he's starting for the Angels

234
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 1: against the Oakland Athletics, and the Angels are a big favorite,

235
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,679
Speaker 1: and you know, it just wasn't on that day, just

236
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,319
Speaker 1: had a bad start pitch that well, and the A's

237
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: ended up somehow winning the game and all that. And

238
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,959
Speaker 1: you know that you can have so much influence on

239
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: that as much as a quarterback. Right.

240
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 4: No, I just don't even want to entertain that idea.

241
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 4: I don't want to think he did any of that.

242
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I don't either. I'd like to think that

243
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 1: this is this is nothing. But I don't believe attorneys.

244
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 1: That's the problem. I mean, it's hard for me to

245
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 1: believe attorneys, you know what I'm saying, Like, just you

246
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 1: got to use some critical thinking, right, not just for

247
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: the sake of argument. You just gotta you know, sometimes

248
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,439
Speaker 1: you have to be the lone voice out there.

249
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 4: Well, there's there's so many examples throughout the history of

250
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 4: sports where players like Charles Barkley, like Michael Jordan love

251
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 4: to gamble, Alan Iverson and others. And the thing is what,

252
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 4: it's a thrill if you win, you're part of the action,

253
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 4: a big part of it. With that kind of money, Well,

254
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 4: let's just hope that a guy like Otani knew even

255
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 4: even if he did like to gamble. Hey, I don't

256
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 4: want to risk my career on something like this.

257
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's it's one of those things, the addiction

258
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 1: of gambling. It's like it's hard to it's almost impossible

259
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: to stop, and they have every trick to keep you

260
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: to continue to gamble, and it's amazing the way it works.

261
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 1: Than listen I do a TV show. Hopefully they'll be

262
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: back for year two. I don't know that hasn't been

263
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: determined yet. But about gambling, but like, you can't be

264
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 1: betting if you've already won the lottery, if you're guys

265
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 1: like even the I would say the interpreter, what was

266
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 1: he making three hundred four or five hundred thousand dollars

267
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: a year?

268
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 4: Five hundred thousand dollars a year?

269
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 1: If you're making five hundred thousand dollars where I come from, your.

270
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 4: You are above middle class even in Los Angeles that

271
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 4: far hundred.

272
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: You're doing well and you've got an easy job. You

273
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 1: don't have to hit the back door slider, the lollipop curve,

274
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: you don't have to do any of that. You just

275
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 1: have to show up and and interpret, just repeat some

276
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 1: cliches from Otani. You get to travel on the team. Yeah,

277
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: no elbows surgery required you're living the dream, right you're

278
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: and then this this pops up. And then there's the

279
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: other possibility that they were both involved in it. And

280
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: this guy is the old Chris Carter got to have

281
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 1: a fall guy.

282
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, And one of our listeners tweeted, he said, I

283
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 4: think the interpreter was gambling, racked up an insane amount

284
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 4: of debt, Otani stupidly and illegally covered him, and now

285
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 4: the lawyers are getting involved.

286
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know that's what that's kind of the story

287
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: that it's going around. But well, we'll see. It's gonna

288
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: be up to the Fed. So my position on this

289
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: is it's not major League Baseball will do nothing. They

290
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: will be the Ostridge and they'll bury their head in

291
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: the ground and be like I didn't see anything nothing,

292
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't see anything. Move on nothing here,

293
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: move on. It's the fifth art. How about it? Today

294
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: is National goof Off Day today? Do you you're a

00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:15,239
Speaker 1: goof off to that? It sounds yeah? It's also Bavarian,

00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:19,640

297
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:24,120

298
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:28,200

318
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: word of the week. All right, so the word this

319
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 1: week is mud slinging. Mud slinging is It's one word.

320
00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: Mud is slinging.

321
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,360
Speaker 4: Is a oh mud sling Does it have a dash?

322
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,199
Speaker 1: No, No, it's all word. Okay, yeah, as I spell it,

323
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 1: it's one word, So mud slinging, which is appropriate. The

324
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks we've seen a lot of mud slinging.

325
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 1: You could argue the Otani story with the gambling, there's

326
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: a lot of mud slinging involved in that. You could

327
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 1: claim that the case also Aaron Rodgers. A couple of

328
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 1: weeks ago, his name came up as a possible candidate

329
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 1: to run for the vice president's seat in the upcoming election,

330
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 1: and immediately immediately people were just like all over Aaron

331
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: Rodgers and just trying to bury him with political dirt

332
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 1: and all this so mud slinging, which has been part

333
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 1: of the political spectrum since the days when politicians would

334
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:58,119
Speaker 1: actually throw real mud. Well maybe maybe not that, but

335
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: but it goes back to ancient Latin and the origin

336
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 1: of mud slinging. It goes from a Latin saying which

337
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 1: translated means throw plenty of dirt and some of it

338
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 1: will surely stick. However, the rise in popularity did not

339
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 1: really take place until the nineteen hundreds, but still here

340
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:28,439
Speaker 1: we are in twenty twenty four and that term is

341
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:34,120
Speaker 1: still regularly used going back to the nineteen hundred and so,

342
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: but it originated in Latin. And it just means you

343
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,400
Speaker 1: throw plenty of dirt and some of it is sure

344
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,119
Speaker 1: to sure to stick, which is great life advice. Right,

345
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 1: if you're a single guy and you're dating, you know,

346
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: you've got to make a lot of offers to people

347
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 1: for dates before somebody takes you up on it. Right,

348
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 1: And if you're that kind of goes where anything in life,

349
00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:00,080
Speaker 1: where it threw out a bunch of dpicts out there

350
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:04,360
Speaker 1: and see where they land exactly exactly, well you know

351
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 1: about that, but you know a lot of Dick and

352
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 1: Dayton stuff. You know you could do that absolutely. Let's

353
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: we haven't done science in all I want to we

354
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 1: do scientifically, and there's a few.

355
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 4: Science stories scientifical.

356
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:34,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll get scientifical si science. I saw the stir.

357
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,119
Speaker 1: We didn't talk about it on the Overnight show. I

358
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 1: don't know if it came up on a Coveno and Rich.

359
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 1: But the science community was buzzing this week because there's

360
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: this exercise pill, which is they claim almost here. Now

361
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: that's weasel terminology, almost here, but they say that this

362
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:57,400
Speaker 1: exercise pill is.

363
00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 4: This supposed to be like ozembic but in a pill form.

364
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 1: Yeah. So the scientists from the Washington University School of

365
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:11,199
Speaker 1: Medicine that's in Saint Louis, they have they've gotten pretty

366
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 1: close to creating a pill that would give you the

367
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 1: same health benefits as actually working out, and so you

368
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: wouldn't have to go to you wouldn't have to get

369
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 1: ten thousand steps, you wouldn't have to get regular physical activity,

370
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 1: and you wouldn't have to worry about any of that.

371
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 4: It's a little bit different then. This is more like

372
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:29,879
Speaker 4: a magic pill.

373
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, so they say, you know, substituting physical and

374
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,880
Speaker 1: mental health benefits of exercise with a pill. They say,

375
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:45,880
Speaker 1: you know, it seems crazy, but they claim that this

376
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 1: is the They've got it. They're close to it, and

377
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: they can replace a lot of the exercise stuff. All exercise,

378
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 1: of course, you know, you get your metabolism going and

379
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: all that. But magic magic maybe in like when your

380
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 1: kids old, Danny and we're really old, like they'll just

381
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:11,880
Speaker 1: you just take a pill. If you want to lose weight,

382
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,679
Speaker 1: you take a pill. You want to exercise, take a pill,

383
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: and and you're good. That's it, But they claim the

384
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 1: secret behind the exercise pill lies in the activation of

385
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:30,359
Speaker 1: estrogen related receptors, proteins that play pivotal role in the

386
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:35,159
Speaker 1: body's response to physical activity. So they've been spending a

387
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: number viewers on this research wise, and they claim they

388
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: have found the magic Goldilocks formula. I'm a doctor, and

389
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:51,159
Speaker 1: it will provide similar results to h to exercise. I

390
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: guess that's good if you're you can't get around right,

391
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: if your legs gave out, or you're kind of old,

392
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: you're not mobile and you're gonna have to you know,

393
00:22:58,359 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 1: sitting around.

394
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 4: While stuck a video studio all day.

395
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 1: I know I've been walking. I've been trying to get

396
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,119
Speaker 1: some a little bit of steps at night. So sometimes

397
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: during the top of the hour I'll walk up and

398
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,399
Speaker 1: down the hall, just back and forth because I'm a loser.

399
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,680
Speaker 4: But I wouldn't used to walk around Sherman Oaks, California.

400
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 1: I did. Yeah, I didn't get shanked either, which I

401
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,680
Speaker 1: think i'd get shanked. I think I think these days

402
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 1: that would not not go. Yeah, But I've starting to

403
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 1: doing a little bit of that movement because I was

404
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: just like I sitting there and I didn't leave the

405
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 1: studio for four hours. I usually get there an hour

406
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 1: before the show, so it was like five hours just

407
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: like sitting around. And so I was like, you know,

408
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: I didn't I don't go around the building. I knew

409
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 1: exactly how long I had to time it. I could

410
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 1: walk around the building and then that took about about

411
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 1: five minutes. Usually the top of the hour paused like

412
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 1: six six and a half minutes, seven minutes, something like that.

413
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: So it was that kind of thing. And uh, yeah,

414
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 1: so I've been getting that extra spats pill. What are

415
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 1: the side effings like that ozembic? Aren't there a lot

416
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 1: of people having issues with thozampic right now?

417
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:05,360
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you puke your guts out. There's just lots

418
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:09,440
Speaker 4: of issues as far as feeling sick to your stomach.

419
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,720
Speaker 1: And is it one of those deals also where if

420
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,199
Speaker 1: you get off of it, you'll just gain all the

421
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 1: way back, so you have to be on it for

422
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: the rest of your life. Is that kind of thing?

423
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, because you need to also be working out, and

424
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,199
Speaker 4: a lot of people can't work out while they're on

425
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:24,160
Speaker 4: that drug because they feel nauseous.

426
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, wonderful, but that's a lot of a lot

427
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 1: of medication and the conspiracy theorist to me would say

428
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 1: that's why or that's what the drug companies want, right,

429
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 1: The secret is to get You don't want to cure people,

430
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 1: You want to give them medicine they need for the

431
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 1: rest of their life because you've got built in built

432
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 1: in customers. Just like every business, we've done stories. I

433
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 1: don't know if that was when you were with me,

434
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,920
Speaker 1: it might've been before, but we've done stories. The key

435
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:59,160
Speaker 1: to business monthly payments. If you cell phone companies, my god,

436
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:00,879
Speaker 1: everyone's got to have a cell phone. You all got

437
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:05,120
Speaker 1: to have a smartphone. You pay yourself, sell bill every month,

438
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 1: but ye's guaranteed revenue, yeah, month after month.

439
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 4: Remember Willie Wonka, he was inventing the everlasting gobstopper. Put

440
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,160
Speaker 4: everybody out of business because the only need one.

441
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 1: We should have like a podcast club. Remember Oprah had

442
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,199
Speaker 1: the book club back in the day when she was big. Oprah,

443
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,479
Speaker 1: well she was, she's always been big. But before she

444
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 1: was big, she was already big, but then famous. Well

445
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 1: well yeah, but no, she had like the book of

446
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 1: the month. And if you can get people to do

447
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 1: something regularly and make it a habit, you filthy rich,

448
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 1: filthy rich. It's like I just read a story this week.

449
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 1: I know it's off off the topic of conversation, but

450
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:54,840
Speaker 1: the story about streaming and how insane to the membrane

451
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 1: it is now that streaming households court of the data

452
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 1: are now ending sixty one dollars per month on four services.

453
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 1: Sixty one bucks a month for streaming, which now, my

454
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 1: cable bill was. I got rid of cable years ago.

455
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 1: My cable bill was really insane because I had all

456
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 1: the sports packages and I was before Eddie told me

457
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:27,120
Speaker 1: about the Russian websites. But this was like I think

458
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 1: my cable bill was like one hundred and fifty bucks

459
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,720
Speaker 1: a month or something like that. It was ridiculous. But

460
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: sixty one bucks a month and you're getting four streaming services,

461
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,719
Speaker 1: and you know this is going to end up. This

462
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,959
Speaker 1: will end up eventually. It'll be within a year or two,

463
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: it's going to be one hundred bucks a month. Like

464
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: that's where it's it's just going to be. The people

465
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,440
Speaker 1: think they were getting a deal, and they were getting

466
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,680
Speaker 1: a deal for a while, but eventually it's just gonna

467
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 1: be the same as cable. You're paying the same amount

468
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: of money. I don't even know. I don't even want

469
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 1: to know how many any streaming services I have at

470
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 1: the mallor mansion, because I don't watch any of them.

471
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 1: I don't I watch YouTube stuff that is free, and

472
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,640
Speaker 1: then I have you know, I've heard there are these

473
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 1: websites you can watch any sporting event you want. You know,

474
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,919
Speaker 1: I've heard about this. I would ever be wrong to

475
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:22,120
Speaker 1: use those, Danny.

476
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 4: From our be inappropriate from our hoa. We have cable

477
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 4: every month, Otherwise we wouldn't pay for it. Used to

478
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 4: be Time Warner, now it's Spectrum. We wouldn't pay for

479
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 4: that otherwise. So we have that if we want to

480
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 4: watch live TV, which comes in handy for watching all

481
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 4: the games. But as far as streaming services, all the

482
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 4: ones we have, out of all the ones we have,

483
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,120
Speaker 4: we only really watch three of them, and that's Netflix,

484
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:50,399
Speaker 4: Apple TV, and HBO Max.

485
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 1: Yeah my wife has I know, she well, Netflix, she's

486
00:27:55,880 --> 00:28:00,120
Speaker 1: got Apple TV plus who I think.

487
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 4: We let our Hulu go. Yeah, it seemed like a waste.

488
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 1: The one she doesn't have is the Disney one, which

489
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:11,800
Speaker 1: gets that's problematic when when the nieces and nephews come

490
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 1: over to the house.

491
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, how do you watch the Taylor Swift concert.

492
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,120
Speaker 1: They want to watch the Disney stuff and we don't.

493
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 1: That's the one we don't have. Well that's the one

494
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 1: I want. Well, we don't have that. We have everyone else,

495
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: you know, watch the cartoons over you. No, no, I

496
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 1: want that, you know. And it was funny because my

497
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 1: my cousin was in town, stayed the whole week with

498
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 1: his six year old son, and his kid just watched

499
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 1: the most disgusting YouTube shorts, you know, those short little

500
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 1: clips on YouTube. Yeah, my god, what a freaking what

501
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 1: a poop show? That is my god.

502
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,959
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what our thirteen year old girl watches. We

503
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 4: are all getting dumber just being in the room.

504
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: We are, We are getting dumber, my god, idiot. Anyway,

505
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 1: we'll get out on that. Why you know, I had

506
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 1: a few more signs before we get out a little

507
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: bit of time.

508
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 4: So yeah, you don't want to end on a dumb note.

509
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely not, definitely not. How about this one. According

510
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 1: to a new scientific study, americans skip brushing their teeth

511
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 1: five times a week. Yeah, five times a week.

512
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 4: I don't know about you, but I can't sleep comfortably

513
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,000
Speaker 4: if I have not brushed my teeth.

514
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 1: That's part of my routine. I typically am a tooth.

515
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,959
Speaker 1: It's teeth, toothbrush. It's teeth.

516
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 4: It should be teeth brush. It's very odd for CoA

517
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,480
Speaker 4: it's toothbrush because he has one tooth.

518
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: He's got that cute one big baby.

519
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 4: He's actually got two at the bottom that are through

520
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 4: and six more coming in right now on the way. Yeah,

521
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 4: so much fun. Yeah, double up the benadryl.

522
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 1: I know. Yeah, not a good time when everything's growing.

523
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 1: It doesn't feel doesn't feel that good.

524
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 3: Uh.

525
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: Well, this is a political study third rail on my head.

526
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 1: It's a third A new study out says, we've got

527
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: the two leading candidates careful, you got Joe Biden and

528
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, and they're really old. So what are the

529
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,479
Speaker 1: actual odds either one of them will still be alive

530
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 1: by the time the twenty twenty nine end of their

531
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 1: election or end of their the next term of presidency

532
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 1: comes comes around. So there was a study on most

533
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 1: Americans believe President Biden, at age eighty one, is way

534
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 1: too old to serve another term. Not as many, but

535
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: still a fair amount believe that Donald Trump, who's seventy seven,

536
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 1: is too old to be president. So they they crunched

537
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 1: the numbers, and they based this on percentages of your

538
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 1: life expectancy and whatnot. And they went back hundreds of

539
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:56,959
Speaker 1: years to track mortality and all this trying to come

540
00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 1: up with the the odds, and the crunched the numbers,

541
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: and they were bragging them out this thing and all that,

542
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 1: and they went through the death rates of this, that

543
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 1: and the other thing. So they claim that Biden, both

544
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: Trump and Biden. We'll go with Biden. Biden has a

545
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 1: ninety two point nine percent probability of surviving at least

546
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 1: to age eighty two, which is like another year. But

547
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: the odds go down. According to the calculations of this study,

548
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 1: they say there is a sixty three point three percent

549
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 1: probability that Biden will survive another five years. So that's

550
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 1: that opens up a thirty seven percent chance he will not,

551
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 1: but that he'll make it to eighty six. There is

552
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: a seventy three point six percent probability that Trump will

553
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 1: survive to at least age eighty two. When's the last

554
00:31:54,160 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: time a president passed away in office? Was it an assassin?

555
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 1: Was it Kennedy? Was he the last one? Was he?

556
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 4: I think?

557
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 1: So everyone else, Well, we had Nixon, but he didn't die.

558
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 1: He just got kicked out right.

559
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 4: That was Yeah, it was sort of a death.

560
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: So Kennedy was the last. That was the last.

561
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 4: Just a political death.

562
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 1: Yeah. He had that famous like the finger thing where

563
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 1: you're like wave, very very odd. Anyway, what else do

564
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 1: we have in these scientifical world?

565
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 4: Uh, let's here, I checked it. You're right by the way.

566
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 4: John F. Kennedy last president to die in office, But.

567
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 1: There was a stretch where a number of presidents in

568
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 1: the early part of America died in office.

569
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 4: Roosevelt died in office.

570
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, it hasn't happened, hasn't happened in a while, happened

571
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 1: a while. Here's the study that says, and we get

572
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 1: these studies every so often, loneliness is worse for your

573
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 1: long term health than obesity, alcoholism, and smoking fifteen cigarettes

574
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: a day. Claim being lonely, So you're better off smoking

575
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 1: fifteen cigarettes a day or being an alcohol I find

576
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: that hard to believe.

577
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 4: The fifteen cigarettes will help you extra help you be lonely.

578
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 4: Ain't nobody gonna want to be around you?

579
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 1: You're not kidding? All right? Well that's enough, all right,

580
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: we'll get out of that and then going on it's
