Speaker 1: Kubbooms.
Speaker 2: If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants
Speaker 2: of the old Republic, a soul fashion of fairness. He
Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 2: The Clearinghouse of Hot takes break free for something special.
Speaker 2: The Fifth Hour with Ben Mallard starts right now.
Speaker 3: In the air everywhere. The Fifth Hour, the Extra Country,
Speaker 3: Extra Spicy Fifth Hour with Me big Man and Danny
Speaker 3: g Radio as we are with you every single weekend,
Speaker 3: and a happy Sunday to you. It's the seventh day
Speaker 3: of July today and the end of the holiday weekend.
Speaker 3: Although is it the end of the holiday weekend, because,
Speaker 3: to tell the truth, a lot of people just kind
Speaker 3: of coast the next couple of weeks July. The weather's good.
Speaker 3: Not a lot of work getting done here, not a
Speaker 3: lot of work getting done. But we've got on this
Speaker 3: podcast a lot of mail, Danny, a lot of mail.
Speaker 3: I was concerned because of the holiday weekend that we
Speaker 3: wouldn't have a lot of mail, but fortunately a lot
Speaker 3: of mail. Are you ready, Ohio, al are you ready,
Speaker 3: Danny for the mail bag.
Speaker 1: No time to spare.
Speaker 4: It's okay, thank you, ohiou, and let's jump right into it.
Speaker 3: We'll go into the deep end. These are actual letters
Speaker 3: by actual listeners. I used to post on social media
Speaker 3: and beg people to send stuff in, but the podcast
Speaker 3: is doing so well now I don't need to do
Speaker 3: that anymore.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 3: I'm very happy. It's like when I used to do
Speaker 3: the lame jokes thing, when I started doing same jokes
Speaker 3: on the radio show, and I would beg people to
Speaker 3: send the lame jokes in. But now we've cultivated a
Speaker 3: big enough audience of amateur joke writers, I don't need
Speaker 3: to worry about that. And the same thing goes for
Speaker 3: this podcast, and that we have enough new people that
Speaker 3: find the podcast because of you spreading the words, spreading
Speaker 3: the gospel, that we don't have to post for questions.
Speaker 1: So that's geat really quick. Let me ask you, if
Speaker 1: Lizo is so beautiful, why do women get mad anytime
Speaker 1: I tell them that they look like Lizzo. That's a
Speaker 1: good point. Shout out, Jeff Die. I thought you were
Speaker 1: going to say lame jokes are on Friday. Yeah no, no, lame.
Speaker 3: Jokes are every day. What are you talking about anyway?
Speaker 3: All right, here we go. First one on the mailbag
Speaker 3: is Marcus from Bruceville, Eddie, Texas, a regular email contributor.
Speaker 3: He says, thanks for taking the question. Great show, as always, gentlemen,
Speaker 3: I always wanted to know how it works behind the scenes.
Speaker 3: Whenever guys on Dan Patrick or Colin Cowherd DoD they
Speaker 3: just fill in for the radio station or for the
Speaker 3: TV show as well. I remember one Colin Cowherd show,
Speaker 3: Doug and Rob Parker had filled in for Colin and
Speaker 3: they were arguing about every single topic. It was absolutely hilarious.
Speaker 3: I don't know Rob Parker's Tom Brady is a cheater, take, etc.
Speaker 3: So I decided to switch over to the Cowherd TV show,
Speaker 3: expecting to see both of them on there going at it,
Speaker 3: and there was somebody in their place on the TV show,
Speaker 3: So then I turned back to the radio show and
Speaker 3: they continue to argue for the next forty five minutes. So, yeah,
Speaker 3: if you haven't figured out, Marcus, I've done those shows
Speaker 3: over the years, and we are v boating. We are
Speaker 3: mere peons, we are mere radio people, Danny, and so
Speaker 3: they do not allow us to get near those TV.
Speaker 1: Cameras not allowed. We completely have faces for radio. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Would also like to point out though, and this is
Speaker 3: a little bit taboo. That's a third rail. Oh man,
Speaker 3: that's a third rail. But I'm proud of this, my man.
Speaker 1: The overall rating's gonna go down a full point on
Speaker 1: the podcast.
Speaker 3: My man, I'm proud of this because we're audio guys,
Speaker 3: and everyone wants to do what we're doing here for
Speaker 3: a living. Danny, infect I just saw this week that
Speaker 3: Marshawn Lynch is launching a podcast with Gavin Newsom, the
Speaker 3: Weasley Snake, Governor of California. So everyone wants to do
Speaker 3: audio content.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 3: It makes no sense to me.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: But is it true that Colin Cowherd radio and TV
Speaker 3: and Dan Patrick radio and TV, their audience is ten
Speaker 3: times as large on radio and audio content only as
Speaker 3: opposed to television. A little birdie tells me that may
Speaker 3: or may not be true, Danny, that there are many
Speaker 3: more people consuming the cow Herd brand and the Dan
Speaker 3: Patrick brand on the radio that on television.
Speaker 1: Radio rules.
Speaker 3: Yeah, as much as people try to kill it, it's
Speaker 3: much like a cockroach in the building. It will not
Speaker 3: go away, will not go away. We were trying to
Speaker 3: figure out the other day, and I think we talked
Speaker 3: about this on the show a while back. How many
Speaker 3: generations of cockroaches have come through the building because it
Speaker 3: was originally a Danny.
Speaker 1: Yes, you'd have to figure out when the Denny's closed.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So Fox Sports Radio took over that building in
Speaker 3: the late like ninety nine. They started building Fox Sports
Speaker 3: Radio in two thousand, the building that we're in now.
Speaker 1: Do you know in the early nineties I ate at
Speaker 1: the Denny's here when my family was visiting this part
Speaker 1: of LA I remember the parking and walking in off
Speaker 1: the street. So it's a flashback that I have sometimes
Speaker 1: whenever I'm walking on the street outside.
Speaker 3: Well, here's a fun, fun factory the American cockroach, which
Speaker 3: is what these are. These are American cockroaches. The lifespan
Speaker 3: of an American cockroaches up to that's a weasel term,
Speaker 3: up to three years. So think let's do the math
Speaker 3: on this. So this place Denny's was there before. Well,
Speaker 3: we're not going to count Denny's. Fox Sports Radio in
Speaker 3: that building. The studio opened late two thousand. I was
Speaker 3: there when they launched it. Actually, it might have been
Speaker 3: early two thousand and one when they launched the building.
Speaker 3: We had other studios before then. So let's do the
Speaker 3: math home.
Speaker 1: Let me do the great great grandparent. Cockroaches were here
Speaker 1: when the Denny's was closing.
Speaker 3: Let's try to use some nuance this like it was
Speaker 3: in America. So three times let's see here.
Speaker 1: Three can't believe we're doing cockroach calculating.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, okay, so three times eight that is yeah,
Speaker 3: eight generations of cockroaches. So that's like going back eight
Speaker 3: hundred years. It is as like going back eight hundred years.
Speaker 3: You think these generations tell stories about back of the
Speaker 3: old days. This used to be a Denny's. We had
Speaker 3: all the food we wanted. We were lived like kings
Speaker 3: here when this was a Denny's. And now now we
Speaker 3: have to scrub for these cheap radio bastards and the
Speaker 3: food they bring.
Speaker 1: We have a cheap vending machine with stale chips.
Speaker 3: Well, thank you, Marcus, And I know, yeah you did.
Speaker 3: Was it the Dan Patrick Show this week that you
Speaker 3: were doing? Is that what you were doing this week? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Last week we did Monday through Thursday the Dan Slam,
Speaker 1: four days in a row of the Dan Patrick Morning Show. Okay,
Speaker 1: and they did not allow us on Peacock.
Speaker 3: I interested, Splendid Daddy writes and from Leesburg, Alabama, Daddy,
Speaker 3: and the Splendid Daddy says, with all the sausage talk
Speaker 3: in recent episodes of the radio show, I have a
Speaker 3: question for the mailbag. This refers to two well known people,
Speaker 3: I suppose, he says, Anthony Wiener, former US REP from
Speaker 3: New York, and David Pecker, former CEO of American Media.
Speaker 3: If you had to change your last name and you
Speaker 3: only had two choices, Splendid Daddy says, Pecker or Wiener,
Speaker 3: which would you choose? This is for both of you, gentlemen,
Speaker 3: it says, so Splendidaddy. I think this one is easy.
Speaker 3: I think the Wiener is the softer of the term.
Speaker 3: I like the extended Wiener. The Pecker is a more
Speaker 3: offensive version of that. So if you had to choose,
Speaker 3: you'd go with the Wiener.
Speaker 1: That's a great lineage though, with the woody the woodpecker.
Speaker 3: Yeah no, yeah, you could say something like that.
Speaker 1: Well, the worst one out there. And you've probably seen
Speaker 1: this clip. It's gone viral even again recently, especially on Instagram.
Speaker 1: The clip of your boy on Love Connection. What was
Speaker 1: that host him, Chuck Woolery.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Remember he introduces the guy that went out on the
Speaker 1: date and his last name is if you want to
Speaker 1: say it in French, fagot. Okay, but he doesn't say
Speaker 1: it that way. He says it the way where you'd
Speaker 1: be canceled if you said that word right now.
Speaker 3: Oh okay. That there was a player at Florida State
Speaker 3: that his name I believe was pronounced like a cigarette
Speaker 3: in Europe.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm talking about, fat goo.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the way.
Speaker 1: To say it in French. So we don't get in trouble. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Now, the most famous person from Leesburg, Alabama is Lindy Hood.
Speaker 3: Do you know who that is? Lindy Hood? No, she's
Speaker 3: from the hood. She was a college basketball player, so
Speaker 3: EDDI probably knows who she?
Speaker 1: Who she was or he?
Speaker 3: Rather, it's a It was a guy, James, James, James,
Speaker 3: Lindy Hood was his name. He played college basketball at Alabama.
Speaker 1: This is it a he or she? I feel like
Speaker 1: you're talking about the Olympics right now.
Speaker 3: Well, this is this guy. He's been dead for a while,
Speaker 3: but it was James Marcus Lindy Hood. Yeah, nickname. His
Speaker 3: nickname came during his playing days with Alabama. During a
Speaker 3: trip to New Orleans to play Tulane. As he entered
Speaker 3: a hotel lobby, a crowd mystic hood for Charles Lindbergh,
Speaker 3: and thus the nickname Lindy, as in Lindburg was given
Speaker 3: to him. So huh, okay, that did not think that
Speaker 3: would come up in the conversation. But at the Leesburg, Alabama,
Speaker 3: now if you're named Lindy, they think yeah. Kevin in
Speaker 3: Kansas writes into the mail bag. He says, dear Ben
Speaker 3: and Danny g Recently on an Olympic swimmer accepted a
Speaker 3: proposal from her boyfriend even as she was dripping wet
Speaker 3: from her qualifying race. With Valentine's Day only a little
Speaker 3: over two hundred days away. I figured I would ask
Speaker 3: Kevin and Kansas says, to have you, gentlemen, share your
Speaker 3: proposal stories. Maybe you could play my heart will go
Speaker 3: on in the background things. Well, very romantic of you,
Speaker 3: Kevin to want to know how we propose.
Speaker 1: Can't play licensed music on podcasts, unfortunately, Yeah, I gotta
Speaker 1: pay a lot of money for Yeah, we could sing
Speaker 1: it in the background though. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So I proposed to my now wife right outside the
Speaker 3: Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, I believe is what that venue is called.
Speaker 3: That is in Los Angeles, downtown Los Angeles, right near
Speaker 3: Grand Avenue. But the street we were on was Hope
Speaker 3: Avenue because you got to have Hope. And if you're
Speaker 3: not familiar with the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, it's a famous location,
Speaker 3: goes back to the nineteen sixties in Hollywood. They've had many,
Speaker 3: many big award shows back in the day.
Speaker 1: This says karaoke version. Am I allowed to play that?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we're fine. Why not. I won't tell anybody.
Speaker 3: If you don't tell anybody, right.
Speaker 1: It's not even the same original instruments, it's like fake one,
Speaker 1: so it'll think it matters. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So the Academy Awards were held is Dorothy Chandler Pavilion
Speaker 3: from the sixties to the eighties and then occasionally in
Speaker 3: the nineties, and then that was it. They moved somewhere else.
Speaker 3: But I proposed there's a bunch of fountains out in
Speaker 3: front of that, and I proposed to my I got
Speaker 3: on a knee and I proposed to my wife, and
Speaker 3: then we went Nate Garlic at the Stink and Rose.
Speaker 3: So that's that's how that went. What about you, Danny.
Speaker 1: I looked at my girl, I looked her right in
Speaker 1: the eyes, and I said, you want to go half
Speaker 1: on a baby? Hey?
Speaker 3: You know who I am?
Speaker 1: Come on wait. That was the second date Disneyland. It's
Speaker 1: her thing, it's her jam. She's a seasoned pass holder,
Speaker 1: so I knew I had to do it there. I
Speaker 1: got boot socks because I had to figure out a
Speaker 1: way to carry the ring, knowing that it was attached
Speaker 1: and not, you know, going to fall out on a
Speaker 1: ride or something like that. Couldn't have the bulky ring
Speaker 1: holder in my pocket either, so I hid it in
Speaker 1: the long boot sock. All day I was trying to
Speaker 1: look for the perfect opportunity to pop the question. It
Speaker 1: was a really fun day there at the park, but
Speaker 1: there was no privacy. Anytime I got somewhere in the
Speaker 1: park where there wasn't a huge crowd, some boso would
Speaker 1: like walk right over by where we were. I had
Speaker 1: to keep resetting, like, okay, well I'll try it later,
Speaker 1: I'll try it again later. We are waiting in line
Speaker 1: for the Indiana Jones ride, famous for breaking down all
Speaker 1: the time. Right before we get on the ride, sure enough,
Speaker 1: it breaks down, and they make an announcement that they're
Speaker 1: not sure how long it's going to take, so you
Speaker 1: could either stay in that line or you could leave.
Speaker 1: You can get on these elevators and leave the ride.
Speaker 1: My chick looks at me and she says, I think
Speaker 1: I'm gonna vomit. Well, damn if this isn't romantic right now.
Speaker 1: We get out of there, and I'm thinking this night
Speaker 1: is ruined. But we go over to like the Princess Ride,
Speaker 1: and we get on there and it's like snow white
Speaker 1: and all the princesses and all that. And we get
Speaker 1: off and there's a little private area right as you're
Speaker 1: exiting that ride, and I pushed her into the corner there,
Speaker 1: got on my knee and gave her the ring dah.
Speaker 1: She said no and said go ahead, And they wound
Speaker 1: up working out perfect because right in front of the
Speaker 1: castle there, they have professional photographers who are always taking
Speaker 1: pictures of people in front of the castle. So she
Speaker 1: got to do a little mini photoshoot with her ring
Speaker 1: right there in front of the castle that was all lit.
Speaker 3: Up and now every time you see that castle, you
Speaker 3: flash back, you get away from me. Mike from the
Speaker 3: South Bay rights and he says, hey, Ben and Danny,
Speaker 3: I saw this week that the Clippers owner Steve Balmer
Speaker 3: is now richer than Bill Gates. How is this going
Speaker 3: to affect your clippers? Benny? Well, Mike, it won't affect
Speaker 3: the Clippers because Steve Balmer. I think he's now the
Speaker 3: sixth richest person in the world, Steve Balmer, or at
Speaker 3: least the US, I think I read that this week.
Speaker 1: Yeah, in the US.
Speaker 3: Okay, to the US. But it doesn't I mean, it
Speaker 3: doesn't matter because he's he was already rich, and he's
Speaker 3: just going to keep blowing money on basketball players that
Speaker 3: are malingering and steal his money and don't show up
Speaker 3: in playoff games and all that stuff. But at least
Speaker 3: he won't be drafting the kid of any of his players.
Speaker 3: I don't believe so got good energy though. Now he's
Speaker 3: got a great arena, the taj Mahal of arenas opening
Speaker 3: up in the hood in Inglewood. A j from Phoenix
Speaker 3: writes and he says, Ben Halupsett was Eddie and ferg
Speaker 3: Dog or Eddie rather when Ferg Dog ran the board
Speaker 3: on Mallard's Mountain of Money this week. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean Eddie, Eddie Fane's anger.
Speaker 1: Wait, why was Ferg Doug running the board?
Speaker 3: He dominated the game.
Speaker 1: I thought he was physically visiting you in the studio,
Speaker 1: ran on the board like Iowa Sam used to do
Speaker 1: for two weeks now.
Speaker 3: He does not leave Brian Finley's home, fer Dog, he
Speaker 3: does not. But Fergie did a great job. He got
Speaker 3: all five questions. Right. Here's the thing. Let me let
Speaker 3: you in a little secret behind the curtain here, behind
Speaker 3: the factory, how we make the sausage jay. So Eddie
Speaker 3: carries himself like the last bastion of purity, right, that
Speaker 3: he's pure and innocent, and that I'm somehow the evil,
Speaker 3: and he's got the integrity on the show and all
Speaker 3: this stuff, right, all this nonsense, and he's he is
Speaker 3: the moral compass of the show, that he's got the
Speaker 3: governing principles and all that, and when in reality, I'm
Speaker 3: the one that follows the code of ethics. I'm the
Speaker 3: one that's on the moral high ground here. It's not Eddie.
Speaker 3: Eddie colors outside the lines all the time. In fact,
Speaker 3: Eddie is often guilty Jay of what I call stolen valor.
Speaker 3: He claims it's a military term, but I'll steal it.
Speaker 3: He claims awards and badges that he did not earn.
Speaker 3: He has cheated multiple times on the show. Listeners have
Speaker 3: caught him cheating. He sometimes the mic he doesn't realize
Speaker 3: is off.
Speaker 1: He says something, you are the one who got caught
Speaker 1: cheating on.
Speaker 3: So I've got the all time wins on these game shows, Danny,
Speaker 3: I'm the wins king. I have more wins than anybody.
Speaker 3: A domination situation. And then Eddie's like, oh, I'm the
Speaker 3: one that No, you're not okay. So he was a
Speaker 3: little upset.
Speaker 1: He was up.
Speaker 3: He was claiming there was some funny business. There was
Speaker 3: no funny business going on at all. It was a
Speaker 3: great win. Good job by Fergie. Way to go. Although
Speaker 3: he didn't send an email in this week for the mailbag,
Speaker 3: bad job by him. Dave from Portland rights in, uh,
Speaker 3: this is an odd one. He says he has a
Speaker 3: swimming pool. I don't think a lot of people in
Speaker 3: Portland have swimming pools, do they do? Anythink Portland's a
Speaker 3: big swimming pool area. Kind of cool overcast.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wouldn't think so. Anyway, he says he he
Speaker 1: really got nice summers, but their summers are short.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he said that. He said there's only gonna be
Speaker 3: sixty thousand. He read there's gonna be sixty thousand in
Speaker 3: ground pools installed constructed this year. He says he's a
Speaker 3: pool guy. He's says that's half as many as twenty
Speaker 3: twenty one. So he says, are we nearing the end
Speaker 3: of the inground pool? Now? Let me ask you a question, Dave,
Speaker 3: Why the why the f would you send that question
Speaker 3: to this show? Like, are you just like messing orders?
Speaker 3: Are we being punked here? But I will, I will
Speaker 3: only say this, and I don't know much about in
Speaker 3: ground pools. But I do know because when I moved
Speaker 3: into the original Malord mansion. When I moved back, I
Speaker 3: thought about putting a pool in, and then I looked
Speaker 3: at how much it costs to put an inground pool
Speaker 3: in a house.
Speaker 1: Do you know how much it costs Danny thirty thousand.
Speaker 3: Before the pandemic, you could put an inground pool in
Speaker 3: for about forty thousand dollars. Okay, Now, when I did
Speaker 3: some investigating, this was during the pandemic. I did some again.
Speaker 3: It was at fifty thousand dollars. Now it is sixty
Speaker 3: five and beyond sixty five thousand and beyond the get
Speaker 3: in price for a small piece of crap in ground
Speaker 3: pool sixty five thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 3: So I would say, Dave, that is why they're not
Speaker 3: constructing a lot of in ground pools, because it is
Speaker 3: a bougie bougie bougie thing, and it's expensive enough to
Speaker 3: if you're able to buy a house, and then to
Speaker 3: add an extra seventy eighty thousand dollars, and then you
Speaker 3: have to have the maintenance on top of that.
Speaker 1: Good luck. Man Trump should add this to his talking points.
Speaker 1: I will make pools affordable again. Everyone wells and millions
Speaker 1: and billions of pools.
Speaker 3: I will get a pool for Joe Biden so he
Speaker 3: can forget where the pool is and walk away, all right.
Speaker 3: Avery in Vegas Rights, and Avery in Vegas says, Hey, Ben,
Speaker 3: is Danny g invited to the big Malor Meet and
Speaker 3: Greet in Vegas? You should bring him along. This is
Speaker 3: from Avery. So Danny, we did mention this in a
Speaker 3: previous episode of this podcast. But the Malor Meet and
Speaker 3: greet is coming up. It's less than a month away now,
Speaker 3: as today is the seventh day of July, August third,
Speaker 3: August third, three o'clock till five o'clock in Sin City,
Speaker 3: We're gonna get the stakeout Bar and Grill forty eight
Speaker 3: hundred South Maryland Parkway, right near you, NLV. You are invited, Danny,
Speaker 3: if you can make it.
Speaker 1: I would love to go. I would love to go.
Speaker 1: But who came up with this date?
Speaker 3: This was a date that worked out for everyone on
Speaker 3: the show.
Speaker 1: We end to day. This was the date everyone but me.
Speaker 1: That is Coa's first birthday weekend.
Speaker 3: Oh well, take take him to the casino, take a gambling.
Speaker 3: Come on, what little kid doesn't want to go gambling.
Speaker 1: Happy first birthday to you. Here's a cigar for you.
Speaker 1: I remember my first first spot over here, you girl,
Speaker 1: Happy first birthday to you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've seen cole Man. He's like an adult already.
Speaker 3: Come on, he's got a man's body, he's all grown.
Speaker 1: That's a fair point.
Speaker 3: He's like the kid from Roger Rabbit. He's smoking cigars there,
Speaker 3: just doing his thing. When I was I was a kidd,
Speaker 3: my first birthday, we wore bell bottoms we got. I
Speaker 3: got new bell bottoms.
Speaker 1: For my first birthday.
Speaker 3: There, very very exciting. But it sounds to me Avery
Speaker 3: that Danny will not be there, but he'll be there
Speaker 3: in spirit. Yeah, and I know the rain is going
Speaker 3: to be there. She's very excited. She wanted us to
Speaker 3: do like a dance routine. I tried to tell her
Speaker 3: that's not what we do. God Coop will be there,
Speaker 3: Eddie will be there, I will be there. Avery will
Speaker 3: be there, and so we'll have a great time. And
Speaker 3: I have gotten some messages from people that say they're
Speaker 3: traveling from very far away, different time zones to come
Speaker 3: to the mallor meet and greet in Vegas. And I
Speaker 3: always put a caveat on that. Danny, I say, well,
Speaker 3: I'll believe it when I see it, because a lot
Speaker 3: of people say that and then something comes up and
Speaker 3: they can't make it, and then that that's it.
Speaker 1: So but thank you.
Speaker 3: What is next? We have Pierre who is sent from Springfield,
Speaker 3: Mass Tips on pumping gas. This it's very important. These
Speaker 3: are these are tips little life hacks on pumping gas.
Speaker 1: This sounds like the local news teaching you how to
Speaker 1: stay cool during the summer.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, pretty much. Here's though this was interesting. I
Speaker 3: didn't know this. It says only buy or fill up
Speaker 3: your car or truck in the early morning hours.
Speaker 1: Talked about this on your live overnight show back in
Speaker 1: the day during our gasoline war, when we argued about
Speaker 1: putting Supreme in and you said it was a waste
Speaker 1: of money. But they're a scam. There's certain engines though
Speaker 1: that need the Supreme gasoline scam. No, you don't have
Speaker 1: a hot rod, so you would know all a scam.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 1: See. The thing is the heat causes pressure. There's a
Speaker 1: problem with putting gas in when it's hot. You want
Speaker 1: to put gas in when it's really cool outside.
Speaker 3: That is correct. Yes, the storage tanks are buried below
Speaker 3: the ground, and when the ground is cold, there's more
Speaker 3: dense the gasoline. When it gets warmer, the gasoline expands.
Speaker 3: So buying gas on a hot summer afternoon or in
Speaker 3: the evening, your gallon is not exactly a gallon, so
Speaker 3: you're actually getting screwed one degree. A one degree rise
Speaker 3: in temperature, As our friend Pierre passes on to us,
Speaker 3: a one degree rise in temperature is a big deal
Speaker 3: in that business for the service station, and they do
Speaker 3: not have temperature compensation at the pump, So it's kind
Speaker 3: of like going to McDonald's and getting the super sized
Speaker 3: fry and then they don't fill it up all the
Speaker 3: way to the top.
Speaker 1: That kind of thing exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 3: They also say when you're filling up, do not squeeze
Speaker 3: the trigger of the nozzle to a fast mode. If
Speaker 3: you look, you will see that the trigger has three stages, low, middle,
Speaker 3: and high. You should be pumping on low mode, thereby
Speaker 3: minimizing the vapors that are created while you are pumping.
Speaker 3: All hoses at the pump have a vapor return. If
Speaker 3: you are pumping on the fast rate, some of the
Speaker 3: liquid that goes to your tank becomes vapor and those
Speaker 3: vapors are being sucked up and back into the underground
Speaker 3: storage tank, so you're getting less gas, less value for
Speaker 3: your money.
Speaker 1: You'll catch the vapors.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought that was That was interesting And let's
Speaker 3: see here says another reminder. If there's a gasoline truck
Speaker 3: pumping into the storage tanks when you stopped by gas,
Speaker 3: do not fill up. Most likely the gasoline is being
Speaker 3: stirred up as the gas is being delivered, and you
Speaker 3: might pick up some of the dirt that normally settle
Speaker 3: in the bottom.
Speaker 1: Correct and a buddy of mine in northern California he
Speaker 1: still drives oil trucks and he's one of the guys
Speaker 1: who delivers the gasoline to the stations. He told me
Speaker 1: the gas that is the ripoff is the middle grade,
Speaker 1: because what they would have him do is take the
Speaker 1: cheap gas and the expensive gas and mix a little
Speaker 1: bit of the expensive into the cheap. And that was
Speaker 1: the middle grade. So the middle grade is actually the
Speaker 1: one that's the rip.
Speaker 3: Now you just need the lowest grade. I think it's
Speaker 3: all anything other than the lower grade. The eighty seven
Speaker 3: grade is a rip dirty though Costco doesn't even sell
Speaker 3: the mid grade.
Speaker 1: They only said go with the dirty. He said, go
Speaker 1: with the cheapest or the most expensive. Don't go in
Speaker 1: the middle.
Speaker 3: Is it eighty seven and ninety one and then eighty
Speaker 3: nine is the middle is out?
Speaker 1: It's different in all states because yeah, some states allow
Speaker 1: less quality gas.
Speaker 3: My final fun fact on gas and I never do
Speaker 3: this and I should do is one of the most
Speaker 3: important tips to fill up your tank when it's half full.
Speaker 3: The reason you fill up your tank when it's half
Speaker 3: full is there's less air occupying the empty space. Gasoline
Speaker 3: evaporates faster than you can imagine, and so if you
Speaker 3: fill it up halfway, you minimize the evaporation, and therefore
Speaker 3: you end up getting a better deal.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and when you play gas roulette the way we
Speaker 1: do all the time, your car is sucking up that
Speaker 1: dirt and grime at the bottom of your tank, and
Speaker 1: that's going through your engine, and you want to try
Speaker 1: to avoid that.
Speaker 3: I can't tell you how many times I have done
Speaker 3: the Russian Roulette with the gas where I'm rolling. One time,
Speaker 3: I was in Pasadena. I was coming down the hill
Speaker 3: in Pasadena and I'm trying to find a gas station.
Speaker 3: They all close in Pasadena, there's nothing near you know,
Speaker 3: inside there's very few gas stations open all night. So
Speaker 3: I'm rolling down the hill past multiple gas stations that
Speaker 3: are all closed. I'm like, am I gonna make it?
Speaker 3: Am I gonna have to call a tow truck?
Speaker 1: And then, oh man, it's the worst feeling ever.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was. It's pretty wild, pretty pretty wild, all right.
Speaker 3: I think we'll get out on that Danny, right, Why not?
Speaker 3: That's a good way to end the festivity.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Man, It's like we ran out of gas.
Speaker 2: There's a bombom. I ready to bring the gas.
Speaker 3: Bum bum bob.
Speaker 1: I'll be here till Thursday. Oh wait, it's Sunday. I'm fired.
Speaker 1: You fired.
Speaker 3: I moved back tonight. It is not a full week
Speaker 3: for me this week. Though, it's not a full week
Speaker 3: for me this week.
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, I hear you're getting on an airplane.
Speaker 3: I'm getting on the Big Bird, my last scheduled, rare
Speaker 3: and appropriate time off. Now I will be in tonight
Speaker 3: and I'll be in tomorrow night on the show. But
Speaker 3: then I have been mandated by my marriage to take
Speaker 3: some time off, some well deserved time off. Try to
Speaker 3: get that in before football season. That's grandfathered into my
Speaker 3: mind because in the old days at Fox Sports Radio,
Speaker 3: we were never allowed to take vacation. They didn't want
Speaker 3: us to take vacation during football season. So even now,
Speaker 3: it's like, you gotta get it in. Football starts late July.
Speaker 3: Get that last vacation in before before that. So I'll
Speaker 3: be in a couple nights this week, and then I'll
Speaker 3: be off for a few nights, traveling the world on
Speaker 3: the Big Bird, going to an exotic tropical location. But
Speaker 3: I'll be in tonight and.
Speaker 1: You Danny Nice and we will be picking up where
Speaker 1: we left off from Afternoon Drive with Covino and Rich
Speaker 1: at least for Monday afternoon and then Tuesday. Tuesday morning,
Speaker 1: we're going to be filling in on the East coast.
Speaker 1: It's the middle of the day for the Great Colin Cowherd,
Speaker 1: who we talked about earlier. Was it this podcast? I
Speaker 1: don't know, they all, I don't.
Speaker 3: It's all the same. It's audio content. I don't even know.
Speaker 1: No, it's this. It was this one because it was
Speaker 1: a question about do they let us on TV? Oh yeah, yes, no,
Speaker 1: so we get to use Colin Cowherd's radio only studio.
Speaker 1: There will be no TV cameras in there because they
Speaker 1: said we're too ugly.
Speaker 3: Can you explain to me why they still have the
Speaker 3: instruction keep out clothes sign up around the Cowhertz studio
Speaker 3: when it's done. They've already finished it. I don't understand that.
Speaker 3: It makes no sense to me. I'd like to know why.
Speaker 3: What is there agenda there?
Speaker 1: They don't want any lookie lose sticking their heads in there.
Speaker 1: That's all.
Speaker 3: I still walk in there. I don't give a crap.
Speaker 3: I'll walk through there. I'm a rebel. I have a rebel.
Speaker 3: I am such a radio loser. Anyway, have a wonderful
Speaker 3: rest of your Sunday. Thanks for listening all weekend, and
Speaker 3: will hitch it tonight.
Speaker 1: Yeah in the radio. Hope you had a beautiful long
Speaker 1: holiday weekend. Later, skater got a murder. I gotta go.
