So if you 19 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: can tell a friend in your circle that you like 20 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 1: the podcast, hey give it a listen, man, That would 21 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: that be cool?

David Gascon, better 24 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: known by his nickname Gascon. Yes, that's exactly right. I 25 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: didn't catch what you were saying initially because I was 26 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: busy looking at booty models on Instagram. But uh, it's 27 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: wonderful and he and he was great man and he's 28 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: and he is awesome. I love I love those old stories. 29 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 1: I I could have listened to Andy talk all night, 30 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: that story about Belichick asking him for a tape for 31 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: an upcoming opponent. When you compare and contrast the difference 32 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: between what's going on these days and the video departments 33 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: of all these teams and some of the promote otions 34 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: that Andy did back in the day, Oh god, what 35 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: a what a great he He's got to write a book. 36 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if he did write. Maybe he's written 37 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: a book, but he should write one about all those stories. 38 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: But it's just wild because you've done this with other 39 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: guests that you've brought onto, But it's wild to hear 40 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: the stories of then. And immediately when we're done and 41 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: we talked about it, we just say that ship would 42 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: never work today. Oh no, you know everyone's looking for 43 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: something to be offended by. These days, you know, the 44 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: offended mob, the always offended mob is is out there. 45 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 1: Everyone's offended by everything. And of course it used to 46 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: be that we would say, like, just because you think 47 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: you're offended and you say you're offended, that does not 48 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: qualify something as offensive. These days, just the act of 49 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 1: saying something is offensive means it's offensive. And I learned 50 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: a few days ago that sexual preference is offensive. Yes, yes, 51 00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: Well I also learned that if a certain political parties 52 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: representation says something within hours, a certain dictionary will change 53 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: the definition. It's an amazing power. I had an idea. 54 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: I thought I thought politicians are just politicians. I didn't 55 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: know they had the power to change the definition of 56 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: words within hours. I had no idea. Well, we're we 57 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: are learning that certain politicians and certain groups have the 58 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: power to manipulate and change and and even suppress certain 59 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 1: content due to social media influences and whatnot. So this 60 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: is a time to be alive. But now that is, 61 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 1: let me tell you something. That situation that happened the 62 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: other day with Facebook and Twitter, Uh, that is going 63 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: to be their demise. Okay, because at some point, there's 64 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: gonna be a come to Jesus moment where the political 65 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: oligarchy in America get together and say, well, wait a minute, 66 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: I mean this these it's a weird thing because those 67 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: are technically private companies Twitter and Facebook, but it has 68 00:03:55,720 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: become the public square. And so you know, television and 69 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: and radio stations are are technically owned by private people, 70 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: but they're licensed by the government, so there's rules and regulations. Obviously, 71 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: it's the way it works, right. You You can own 72 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: like I Heart Media owns a ton of radio stations, right, 73 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: but those radio stations are governed by the rules of 74 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: the Federal Communications. Now. I don't like the red tape, 75 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 1: and I don't like the rules, and I would hate 76 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 1: to see more bureaucracy. But you can't be you can't 77 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: be bullying and taking stories away because they don't fit 78 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: your agenda when they're legitimate stories. Cannot do. It a 79 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: little odd that you'd have a company like Twitter or Facebook, 80 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: um try to suppress journalists and say, what hold on? 81 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: We have the journalistic integrity, the fact the fact checkers. 82 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: I get the biggest kig checkers. Who the hell, who 83 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: the funk are your fact checkers? Oh my god, it's 84 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: the high moral authority from these twenty two, twenty three 85 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: year olds that just got out of college that are 86 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: your fact checker. You got a bunch of hyper sensitive, 87 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 1: you know, full outraged half wits that are are deciding, 88 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, oh my god. It's maddening. It 89 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 1: is maddening, is what it is. It is good and 90 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: it was great because yeah, the the the the Q 91 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 1: and A was Centator Herono from Hawaii and Amy Coney 92 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: Barrett talking about sexual orientation or sexual preference and then 93 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: immediately Webster's Dictionary just flips that thing and makes it 94 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 1: into offensive. It was just it was fascinating to see 95 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: in real time because if that was on some kind 96 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: of music or music a magazine stand, you would think 97 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 1: that it's just like gossip coming from a from a tabloid. 98 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: But nope, this is this is the real world. This 99 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: is Yeah, it's pretty pretty crazy. And some people downplay it, 100 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: says it's not that big a deal, but it's a 101 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 1: lot different than it is. And I'm not thinking it's better. 102 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 1: I don't think it's better. So we can we could 103 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: go from pay phones and rotary phones to cell phones, 104 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:13,239 Speaker 1: but holy fuck, like we are changing as we speak 105 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: the way that we are and are not allowed to 106 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: to communicate with each other. Yeah, I I hate to 107 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: go down this road, but you you brought it up, 108 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: so we'll go down this road. Like the when I 109 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: when I was a kid. You know those nursery you 110 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: know the nursery rhymes. Everyone's when you were a little kid. 111 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: You do the nursery rhymes and all that stuff. But 112 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: remember the one sticks and stones may bake my bones, 113 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: but names will never hurt me. Remember that one? What 114 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 1: happened to that one? Right? You know? Now? It's you know, row, 115 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: row your boat gently down the stream, merrily, merrily, merrily. 116 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: Life is but a dream. It's apparently just a dream. 117 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: It's all. It's all a dream. But I like the 118 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: a sticks and stones thing. I think that's you know, 119 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: that's a good thing. Sticks and stones may break my bones, 120 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: but names will never hurt me. My god, how hard that? Yeah, 121 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 1: he's I think that I heard that thing loud and 122 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: proud when I was a child, And uh, it's on 123 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: display every time I work with you. Now, it's all huffing, puffing, 124 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: blow your house down. You can really translate anything in 125 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: life to a nursery run you can, You certainly can. 126 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: That's a lot of there's a lot of rock goodbiite baby, 127 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: which is great because you know that they have these 128 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: places now set up at universities. Oh yeah, I've heard 129 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: those stories where they have the safe spaces and that 130 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: they maybe Adam Carolla made a movie about that last year, 131 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: a documentary about just that whole mindset and all that. 132 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: The the rogue agent here that's a citizen of the 133 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: United States and resides in California, is he moving to 134 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: Nashville too? I think everyone's moving to Nashville. Everyone'sville or 135 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: Texas or Arizona, I don't know, somewhere someplace. So on 136 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: this podcast, we have one man's trash, there's another man's treasure. 137 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: We've got Alvin and the Chipmunks and pop Quiz. All right, 138 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: that's what we got. And we already started with some 139 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: political theater, which is which is good. I love the 140 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: Honorable Senator Ben Sass from Nebraska who, uh, we did 141 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: a monologue on it the other day and a bunch 142 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: of the astro fans got all upset, but it was wonderful. 143 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: And Ben Sass, who called at a judicial hearing judicial 144 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: hearing for a US Supreme Court nominee. Uh he said 145 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: that Astros are miserable cheaters. My god, was that great? 146 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: And the best part about it was he didn't use 147 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: it like he was just trying to slide in a 148 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 1: quick liner. He actually laid it out. I saw the 149 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 1: clip that you sent. It was five minutes. But he 150 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 1: laid it out perfectly. And he went into how they 151 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: should have been penalized a lot more severe than they were. 152 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: It was just great. And then he took shots obviously 153 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: across the room in the judicial process. Yeah, and it 154 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: was good, and it was you know, the people with 155 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,719 Speaker 1: no sense of humor that was stick up their ass. They, Oh, 156 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 1: I can't believe me did that? Oh my god, screw. 157 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: I don't care. I know he's a Republican, but if 158 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: you're a Democrat or a Republican, you should smile. That's 159 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: that's if you have bipartisan support. As I said I 160 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: think in the monologue the other day, is that that 161 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:23,319 Speaker 1: was it was hilarious.

Yeah, Chet died, I think in 206 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: a car accident. Last was it last year? I think yeah? Unfortunately, 207 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 1: But he was a legend in Chicago media. He was 208 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: like the godfather of Chicago sports radio. But he didn't 209 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: like me. You didn't like me. But you know, no 210 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: one's perfect, right, No one's perfect.

So this is another personal story, guest, 213 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 1: I must be relatable. So I enjoy suburban hiking. I 214 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: got my headphones in Uh. In fact, I I talked 215 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: to you. Sometimes I make a few phone calls. Usually 216 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 1: I listened to some tunes or whatever. Maybe a game 217 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: if it's it's an afternoon game when I'm walking around 218 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: in baseball, So I'm I'm always when I'm walking, I'm 219 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: always rotating my eyes. I'm observing my surroundings. Uh. And 220 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: this week that paid dividends, opportunity structure. I'm walking down 221 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: a pretty busy highway that is near near the Mallard mansion, 222 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: and I'm I'm walking there, and I'm as i'm walking, 223 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: I'm counting the I call them idiots who while driving 224 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: wear their masks in the car with the window up. 225 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: You know that the word that by being in the 226 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,199 Speaker 1: car with the window up, they might get the corona. UM. 227 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: So I I always count them, and I'm I'm looking 228 00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: to make sure no one's gonna hit me or try 229 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: to um. And then I stumbled on a pile of garbage. 230 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 1: So on the right I'm going, I'm going like north. 231 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: On the right of me is the highway. On the 232 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: left of me is like this kind of disheveled part 233 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: of town where it's like an empty field. Right, so whatever, 234 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: I'm walking and surrounded by businesses, but this this just 235 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 1: happens to be empty. And as I'm walking, I get 236 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: near this empty field and I see this big pile 237 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 1: of discarded clothes, and there's a there's a shopping cart, 238 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: there were some street signs, some traffic cones that it's 239 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 1: all random, like a hodgepodge of crap that was just there, um. 240 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: And there was some random paper trash. And then I 241 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: had a diamond in the rough that I witnessed guests 242 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 1: gun in the middle of that trash. In the middle 243 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 1: of that just random discarded clothes and stuff that people 244 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: just tossed off the street was day laundry matt grade 245 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 1: rolling cart in great condition, right in the middle, and 246 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: it called out to me. It said, Ben, take me 247 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 1: to the Mallard mansion. I need to go to the 248 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 1: Mallard mansion. And I'm like, whoa right, So I immediately 249 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: at that moment, I couldn't take it at that time 250 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: because I was in the middle of my way. So 251 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: I decided I needed to salvage this orphan laundry Mack 252 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: grade rolling card, which some people would say as a 253 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: piece of junk, and I had to take it to 254 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: the to the mat matchion. So I made a deal 255 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: with myself, guest gun, I said, when I am done 256 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: with this walk, when I'm making I was far away 257 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: from my my house at that time, and when I 258 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: make it back to the house, I'm gonna be back here. 259 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna save. I'm the savior. I'm gonna save that 260 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:53,479 Speaker 1: laundry mac grade rolling card, a clothing card. So I 261 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: walked by. I went back to the house, and then 262 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 1: I had to go to the store anyway. I had 263 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: to pick up some things for the wife, a couple 264 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: ofion of vegetables and some crap like that. So on 265 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: the way to the store, I made a pit stop. 266 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: I turned on my emergency blinkers. I stopped on the 267 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: side of that busy highway. I got out, I opened 268 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: the reel of the rear of the car, and my 269 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: wife had left some crap in there, so I had 270 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: to move stuff around because this laundromatt grade rolling cart 271 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 1: was so massive that it would not fit in the 272 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 1: back of the car. Because there was other stuff that 273 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: I had to move things around. And as he took 274 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: a lot longer than I wanted, emergency blinkers are flashing 275 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: the whole thing, and I was able to pick this 276 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 1: thing up. I put it in and right now you 277 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: can't see this because we're on a podcast, but right 278 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: behind me in the hallway outside I call it Studio B, 279 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: which is the Mallard studio at the Mallard mansion. Right 280 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: outside is that laundry matt grade rolling clothing cart, which 281 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: I have saved and will be used. I actually wanted 282 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: to buy one of these things. Guests gone, I was. 283 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: I told my wife the laundry is a pain in 284 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: the ass for everyone. Nobody liked doing laundry, So I 285 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: was like, why don't we get one of those cards 286 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: that will make it a lot easier. And we never 287 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: did but it just fell into my lap. It's it's great. 288 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: I'm happy with this. I'm so excited. Who knew that 289 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: I would be excited. I never thought when I was 290 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: a little kid that I would be excited as a 291 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: middle aged man to get a laundry cart for free. 292 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: And this thing is like a four dollar laundry cart. 293 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: It's not just like a you know, a piece of 294 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: crap that you bought, you know, at the discount, or 295 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: this is a I'm telling you, it's top notch here 296 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 1: and in any other year, I'd be appalled by this story. 297 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 1: But it's and we gotta look at some of the 298 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: smaller things in life. Well, I'm not I'm not west 299 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: of the four or five guest Scouts, So I I 300 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: if I was west of the four or five, I 301 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 1: just go buy a laundry cart. But I'm a struggling 302 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: overnight radio guy that took a pay cut this year 303 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: because of the COVID. So yeah, there's there's nothing struggling 304 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: about Ben Mallory and the Mallard mansion. I don't know 305 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 1: what you're talking about. Man, you haven't been out here 306 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: in a long time. We serve cold chicken. According to you, 307 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: because we do. We can't afford warm chicken, cold chicken, 308 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: and and burnt steak or frozen steak. Yes, Um, that 309 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 1: that steak is sitting comfortably. That's say, what's gonna come first? 310 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: Me eating the steak or Ted Williams head coming back 311 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 1: to life. I think it's more likely that you'll pop 312 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: into the studio before that good steak is. Actually I 313 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:23,919 Speaker 1: am gonna come to the studio this week. I have 314 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 1: to pick up some mail.

I go and look. I peek 405 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 1: in over the you know, it's a pretty big kind 406 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 1: of basket e thing that you put the stuff in. 407 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 1: So I peek over the compost bin and I witness 408 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 1: the rotting carcass of a cute little squirrel or chipmunk 409 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: that was had been feasting on rotting food and apparently 410 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: either ate so much of it, gorged so much of it, 411 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: or just ate the wrong thing and die a man, 412 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 1: it's demise in the compost bin. So I don't know 413 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:54,399 Speaker 1: if the squirrel killed itself or if it ate something, 414 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,640 Speaker 1: and you know, either way it's uh, it's dead. So 415 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,200 Speaker 1: that proves I am correct. I told my well lifes 416 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,959 Speaker 1: of this. That is a death trap right there.

Uh yeah, you know, 424 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: I heard the only difference between a chipmunk and a 425 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,439 Speaker 1: squirrel is the stripe on the back. That's what I 426 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: was told that that's pretty pretty much the only difference. 427 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: That the chipmunk has a stripe on the back of 428 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: the squirrel does not. Wait, hold on, why did you 429 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: go out first and not your wife, since it was sleep. 430 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: She was sleeping. She was sleeping, so I haven't. It's 431 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: actually technically still in the compost, but I have to 432 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: get to shovel out and I have to give it 433 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 1: a proper burial, which my wife said is just throw 434 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 1: it in the bushes.

Maybe 444 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,919 Speaker 1: you actually killed the squirrel that was running around like 445 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:26,919 Speaker 1: the squirrels. Like I got the run of the Mallard mansion. 446 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna live in the attic and then I can eat. 447 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: They're gonna these idiots are gonna give me food and 448 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: heat whatever I want, you know, that whole thing.

I would have I would have great, 492 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: a little, a little odd. How would you how would 493 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: you rate your week of producers since I'm not there week? Well, 494 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: you know, I like these guys. They're they're doing their things. 495 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 1: But you know, everyone's got their own their own stuff. 496 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 1: You know, they get their own issues. And you were 497 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: the worst, which is which is good? You're the worst 498 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: because you wouldtimidate these kids, and they just they feel like, 499 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: I'm not even there. How could I intimidate him. I'm 500 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 1: I'm you know, in the machine and in the magic radio. 501 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,159 Speaker 1: When you don't talk to these people, they listened to 502 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 1: you on the air, and they immediately interpret that as 503 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: the great thing. And I guess it's just the younger generation. 504 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 1: But I told the story before. But like when I 505 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: when I would fill in and I started at the 506 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 1: mighty six nine, even occasionally I would produce and I 507 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: would run the board for different shows and things like that, 508 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: and I I always wanted to make a great impression. 509 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:34,199 Speaker 1: I always wanted to listen to the show that I 510 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: was gonna work on as a fill in guy, just 511 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 1: so I kind of knew what it was all about. 512 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: None of these people listen to the show, not a 513 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,199 Speaker 1: single one of them listen to the show, and they 514 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: have no idea what it is. They have no concept 515 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: of what it is, which I am just blown away by. 516 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: And every one of them is the same way. None 517 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: of them listen, and they come in there and they're 518 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,880 Speaker 1: like they all it's just don't get me started, guest. 519 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: I think it's fun that they don't listen, that they 520 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 1: have no concept of what they're you know, No, I 521 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 1: think it's fun that you get the curveballs, because it 522 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:10,199 Speaker 1: can't like there's nothing. It's doing live radio as you 523 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: do for for three to four hours every night. You're 524 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 1: you're flying, you're flying without a parachute. You're you're walking 525 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: into school naked, like you can't. It's not scripted, it's 526 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 1: not supposed to be so much. Ship just goes wrong 527 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 1: or you can take it off the air. You have 528 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: to drive in here. Like there's just something unique about 529 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: that that people gravitate towards, as opposed to the things 530 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: that are just so monotone and regular and black and white, 531 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 1: like happened during the day. No, I mean, it's obviously 532 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: different to night. But I'll give you I'm not gonna 533 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: say who did this, but you screwed up with the phones. 534 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: We had another phone faux. The buttons don't work on 535 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,959 Speaker 1: the fucking phone. They don't fucking work. They work for 536 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: everyone else, But you think everyone else can figure it out. 537 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 1: But guess do you think you might be the problem? Possibly? 538 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: I broke several of the buttons when hitting lines when 539 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: I was in or last week. Yeah, well, how about you, 540 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: lou use a little softness with the buttons. How about 541 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 1: that getting some material that's not dated in nineteen? Well 542 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: that's when they built the station, equip it from nineteen 543 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 1: that we're still using. I'm aware of the situation. Guess 544 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 1: how about not crucify me for for pushing ship that's 545 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: twenty years old and then saying you're the guy, you're 546 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: the problem? All right? Oh you're so. He's so sensitive. 547 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 1: It's just like a little flower. I feel like I 548 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: feel like it need to be defended. Now, can I 549 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: tell the story about the other mistake. I'm not gonna 550 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: name this person because I you know I want to 551 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: do that, But there's something else that happened here, okay, 552 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: that I gotta kick out of. So the other night, 553 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: I'm doing a show, uh, you know, which we normally do, 554 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 1: just doing the regular show and all this stuff. And 555 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,719 Speaker 1: so it's about forty minutes in the show and I 556 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: asked the fill in producer.

I've worked 562 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 1: in radio at Fox Sports Radio. We're on four radio stations. 563 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 1: And I've never done a show for forty minutes without 564 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 1: a phone call ever. I've been on Christmas, I've been 565 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving, I've been on New Year's.

And uh, and then I recall, um what 568 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: he probably did. And so I then informed him, Um, 569 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: are the lines are they busy? And he said, yes, Ben, 570 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 1: they are busy. And he didn't realize that he there's 571 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 1: a way you can busy out the phone lines when 572 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: you don't want to take any calls. And the first 573 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: like forty minutes. The lines were completely busy. You couldn't 574 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: get he couldn't take a phone call because there were 575 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 1: no phone calls because he and he didn't even realize it. 576 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, no one's called Ben. Oh my god, that's good. Yeah, wonderful. 577 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 1: That brought a tear to my eye. He's like a 578 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: young guest.

Yeah, all right, pop quiz, here we go. 631 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: Guess got about fifteen million people in North America regularly 632 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: play this sport. It never really gets talked about on 633 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 1: sports radio though soccer. No, there's more than fifteen million 634 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: people playing soccer in America. Guess come on, it's about 635 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 1: chop by you horse shoes. Oh can you believe there 636 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: are fifteen million people, they claim in North America that 637 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 1: play horse shoes. The only time I even mentioned horseshoes 638 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 1: is horse shoes and hand grinnings close soy monitors and 639 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 1: horse shows and well, you gotta think they probably do 640 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,760 Speaker 1: this at a lot of fra turning houses, maybe sorority 641 00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 1: at times. I guess, um, when's the last time you 642 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 1: played horse shoes? Uh? Probably a couple of years ago 643 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: in San Diego and the fourth of July. Yeah, yeah, 644 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 1: it's like a beach game.

What is it? 648 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: I can't say skydiving, jumping, because I do think once 649 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:27,320 Speaker 1: you do get married, get married that would make sense 650 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 1: because most people only get married at one time. That 651 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 1: is incorrect though. It is change your voicemail greeting. Now, 652 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 1: once you set the voicemail, that's it. Whatever you put 653 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:42,280 Speaker 1: as the voicemail that is going to be your voicemail forever, 654 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: forever and ever and ever and ever and ever about that. 655 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: That's interesting, That is true, though I don't I don't 656 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,319 Speaker 1: change my voicemail. I don't really change my Twitter avatar either. 657 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 1: I don't you know that. You don't check your voicemail 658 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 1: in box either, because it's full and you needed to 659 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: erase some ship. That's because a certain guy from Chicago 660 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: calls me up and uh, he goes on and on. 661 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,240 Speaker 1: You gotta be kidding me. Yeah, every yeah, he leaves 662 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 1: every voicemail messages from him. Fuck. Yeah, It's it's crazy, 663 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,360 Speaker 1: all right. But you know, I'm hanging out here in Chicago. 664 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: I I got a new client, you know, in Kentucky 665 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 1: or something. He goes on and on and on. It's 666 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:25,920 Speaker 1: pretty good. It was good though, years ago when he 667 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 1: left me a message, Hey, I'm bet I'm outside Wrigley Field. 668 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 1: I've got the goat head. I'm about to put it 669 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 1: on the Harry Carrey statue and that wake up and 670 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: it would be all over the internet. You know, cub 671 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 1: fan leaves bloody goat head at Wrigley Field. You know, 672 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 1: I heard that the Chicago Blackhawks statue in front of the 673 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:47,759 Speaker 1: the United Center was was destroyed the other day. Oh 674 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 1: wasn't it was destroyed that right? Yeah, they like they 675 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:54,400 Speaker 1: painted over it, they completely destroyed it. I was. I 676 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,799 Speaker 1: did not hear about that, Yeah, I was. Did you 677 00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:00,439 Speaker 1: didn't hear about that during the Puck Podcast? I don't. 678 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:04,320 Speaker 1: I don't listen to the podcast, all right, did you 679 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 1: mention it? Did he monologue on to riff on it? 680 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. I didn't listen to it. I just 681 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:11,240 Speaker 1: figured you would, so no, I don't know. I'm very busy, 682 00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 1: you know. Yes, I'm sure it's wonderful. I just got 683 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: a big following there. He's got he's got a lot 684 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:16,959 Speaker 1: of people. Do you think he's got more people listening 685 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 1: to that than people listen to this? Yes? Really, there's 686 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 1: more people listening to the Puck Podcast than our Yeah. 687 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:23,879 Speaker 1: I think there's more people that like any than they 688 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 1: do hate me. So I think, Oh, we get you 689 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,959 Speaker 1: at playing victimhood. No it's not. It's just victimhood guest 690 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,399 Speaker 1: on his back. And that reminds me because we didn't 691 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: acknowledge this boo hoo. We did not acknowledge this, but 692 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 1: we did have some inquiries about it. We do not 693 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:48,359 Speaker 1: we do not have control over cross promotions on podcasts. Yes, 694 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 1: so there are people that are in management positions that 695 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:54,319 Speaker 1: make these decisions, and that's above our pay grade, right, 696 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 1: that's pretty business people that do ask like, we're not 697 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:01,920 Speaker 1: bringing other content from other shows onto this podcast. They 698 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 1: are redistributing that to promote other shows, and likewise they 699 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:11,399 Speaker 1: have this content put on other platforms as well. So yes, 700 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,919 Speaker 1: and I get, I get, I've gotten those messages, and 701 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 1: I understand you're frustrated and all that. It's an inconvenience 702 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 1: for some For other people, maybe they'll like the show 703 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:23,359 Speaker 1: and they'll start listening to that show. I think that's 704 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:27,440 Speaker 1: what management wants, I assume, But it's really you're the consumer, 705 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: so you have to decide what you want to do 706 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: with that. Yes, you're the consumer. So alright, what else 707 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 1: do we have here? Let's see, no matter what time 708 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 1: of the year, this is more likely to happen to 709 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: men than women. Um, no matter the time of the year. Yeah, 710 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 1: I don't matter at the time of the year, um 711 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 1: um um um um um um. They they get the 712 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 1: flu pretty much. It's catch a cold, catch a cold. 713 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 1: Men are more likely to catch a cold and women. 714 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 1: Why is that because of high estrogenial levels, you're less 715 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 1: likely to get your goal? Is that one? Maybe it's 716 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: related to stress system gets weaker. All right, what was 717 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 1: the most tweeted about food last year? This is random, 718 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 1: This is pop quiz. David Gascon. I'm asking you and 719 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 1: also bo asking you, little listener, the most tweeted about 720 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: food last year.

The answer is bock chicken. Chicken. Yeah, 723 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 1: people up chicken. We did a doc review on chicken. 724 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 1: Chicken is not even an animal anymore. It's just like 725 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,400 Speaker 1: it's like a vegetable, you know, It's like you know 726 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:48,400 Speaker 1: what I mean. There's so many produced chicken Big with 727 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:52,320 Speaker 1: Big Chicken documentary that we did a review on. Alright, 728 00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 1: People who do this every day, they experts claim, more 729 00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 1: likely to have more friends. M um ummmmmm. Read the 730 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 1: read the newspaper, read the newspaper. No, make their bed. 731 00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,279 Speaker 1: Do you make your bed every day? No? Of course not, 732 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 1: but I don't. I don't really need to make my 733 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,400 Speaker 1: bed because I don't have I have I just had 734 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:22,840 Speaker 1: the down comforter. I don't have a bunch of sheets. 735 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: Are you a rabid sleeper? Do you twist and turn 736 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:30,359 Speaker 1: a lot and your sleep? But I'm I'm hot when 737 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 1: I sleep, So I only sleep with the down comfort 738 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,360 Speaker 1: that's it. So I just had the bed sheet, the 739 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:39,879 Speaker 1: down comforter, that's it. Yeah, I always am very hot 740 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 1: when I'm sleeping to my wife's always coold. That's you. 741 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 1: Women are cold, men are hot, right, It's normally how 742 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,160 Speaker 1: that works. And so I remember I was doing the 743 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:48,680 Speaker 1: Sleep Number commercials when they were an advertiser back in 744 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 1: the day. We uh we had They had a bed 745 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 1: that had an air conditioner in it, and that's the 746 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 1: bed I want. I never got that bed, I lo I. 747 00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 1: I still use the Sleep Number, but I love to 748 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:01,800 Speaker 1: sleep my bed. It's a great bed. But I wanted 749 00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 1: the one with the air conditioning because I thought that 750 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 1: would be really cool, literally really cool. It would make 751 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,839 Speaker 1: me sleep a lot better. But I never never had 752 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:12,640 Speaker 1: that item. That's pretty booge. And do you know how 753 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:16,320 Speaker 1: much it cost? Oh yeah it was. It was pretty pricey. 754 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 1: It was expensive, but yeah, you can get you can 755 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 1: get that for a bed. Now. Is that similar to 756 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 1: what you have with seat warmers in a car, where 757 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 1: like your set of the bed you can adjust and 758 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 1: go hotter cold, and then your wife can do the same. 759 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 1: I don't remember the exact specifics on it. It was 760 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,279 Speaker 1: like this big thing that it would blow cold air 761 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 1: through underneath the mattress, so when you're sleeping, you'd have 762 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:43,320 Speaker 1: nice coolness, like a comfortable temperature. Did you ever sleep 763 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 1: or use a water bed back in the day? Uh, 764 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:50,680 Speaker 1: you know, my my mom had horrible arthritis and so 765 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,439 Speaker 1: she got a water bed.

And the thing was, you know, a piece 769 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 1: of crap because us kids would just jump up and 770 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 1: down on it.

They've they've mastered it with this 778 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 1: sleep member thing for sure. All right, what is next 779 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:38,680 Speaker 1: year of people?

Oh yeah, and the you 811 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 1: gotta eat that and then the little nuts on top 812 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,320 Speaker 1: they would fall off, and but they advanced, and I 813 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 1: think the best thing was the payoff because when you 814 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:41,920 Speaker 1: got to the bottom of the cone, they all sat chocolate. Yeah, yeah, 815 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,839 Speaker 1: that was a good payoff. I think they did that 816 00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 1: so it didn't leak, right. Isn't that why they put 817 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 1: the chocolate in there, because that way if the ice 818 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 1: cream when it melted, it wouldn't go through the bottom 819 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 1: because the chocolate would block maybe because but the originals 820 00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:59,000 Speaker 1: didn't have the chocolate in them. No, that's an upgrade, 821 00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:00,800 Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. It was probably upgrade because they're like, 822 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:04,440 Speaker 1: they realized this is a flaw in production and they 823 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:06,600 Speaker 1: had to and they do improve it a little recalling 824 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 1: the drumsticks. Yeah, that's true, all right. A new survey 825 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:13,839 Speaker 1: asked people what foods they hated as kids but now 826 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:18,359 Speaker 1: like as an adult. This came in at number one. 827 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:21,839 Speaker 1: I can speak from experience. I guess on this would 828 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:26,000 Speaker 1: it be broccoli? But is a vegetable? But it's not 829 00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:33,280 Speaker 1: brocco tomatoes? No corn on corn? Not? Corn's not really vegetable, 830 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 1: you know, it's like onions. No, it's asparagus. Oh yeah, 831 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 1: not not from me, not for me. Although I do 832 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:45,799 Speaker 1: eat a few more vegetables, and I like bell peppers 833 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 1: and I'll eat I do occasionally. I don't like tomatoes. 834 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:53,360 Speaker 1: I love onions. I love garlic. I'm all about the garlic, obviously. 835 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 1: I like garlic when I was a kid, though, so 836 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 1: it's not really any different, all right, do you put 837 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:02,239 Speaker 1: tomatoes on the those I don't know what you call it, 838 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 1: but that thing that you make like I guess that's 839 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:05,960 Speaker 1: the thing that you make. Yeah, Like you sent me 840 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:07,760 Speaker 1: a picture of this thing that looked like a pizza. 841 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:10,800 Speaker 1: Do you put any tomatoes on that? It's tomato sauce. 842 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:14,399 Speaker 1: There's a the Mallard pizzas. You got the dough, um 843 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 1: and you combine that together. You lay out the dough obviously, 844 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:20,280 Speaker 1: and then you you I paint, because I'm I'm a 845 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 1: culinary artist. I paint the tomato sauce, just like at 846 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:28,200 Speaker 1: the pizzeria and Papa's Pizzeria, and so I paint that 847 00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:30,320 Speaker 1: all over. And then I have a layer of cheese. 848 00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:34,320 Speaker 1: Then I mix in the pepperoni, the turkey pepperoni. I 849 00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,920 Speaker 1: mix that in there. Then I have a second layer, 850 00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:38,879 Speaker 1: and then I have on top, I put the bell 851 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:41,920 Speaker 1: pepper and the garlic and the onion. And that's the 852 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:46,360 Speaker 1: Millard pizza. And it's unbelievable to die for. That is 853 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,120 Speaker 1: what it is. It is to die for. It look 854 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 1: like someone's face that was getting melted off. When you 855 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 1: sent me a picture of it, it just looked appalling 856 00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 1: to me. Yeah, well, your West of the four oh five. 857 00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,880 Speaker 1: But some some places, though, they put the tomato sauce 858 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,239 Speaker 1: on the the cheese on and they put tomatoes on 859 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 1: top with like bell peppers or pepper It's like Chicago 860 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:10,000 Speaker 1: style or something like that. This is not This is traditional, 861 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:12,399 Speaker 1: more of a New York style, a Kirkland brand style 862 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 1: type of pizza. All right, let's see here. Oh, this 863 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 1: is a good one. I think you'll appreciate this and 864 00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,880 Speaker 1: also be shocked. But at the same time, eighteen percent 865 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:26,440 Speaker 1: of women admit they don't do this every day, although 866 00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 1: most people think they should shower, no change their underwear. 867 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 1: About that one. Now, does that mean because they go commando? 868 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:41,920 Speaker 1: I do not know that part of it, but they 869 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:43,680 Speaker 1: just says they Why would they wouldn't be able to 870 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,240 Speaker 1: change their underwe if they don't have underwear on? Yeah, exactly, 871 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:50,359 Speaker 1: So inquiring minds must know. It's good to know women 872 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:51,960 Speaker 1: are just like men, because dudes are were the same. 873 00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:54,560 Speaker 1: One to wear for three or four days, doesn't matter. 874 00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 1: It's good to know women or not that you know. 875 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 1: It's eighteen percent of women are just like men. Now, 876 00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:00,200 Speaker 1: it would be great if they didn't do that because 877 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 1: they're superstitious. That'd be awesome. He's in my lucky lucky yes, yeah, alright. 878 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:09,400 Speaker 1: Twelve percent of us have stolen this from a neighbor 879 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 1: without them ever knowing it. It's the perfect crime. Oh 880 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:19,479 Speaker 1: do do do do do do do do do? Do? 881 00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:26,120 Speaker 1: Do do drink? Nope, WiFi? Uh, they were stolen WiFi 882 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:30,319 Speaker 1: from a neighbor. Jumped on there and is that really stealing? No, 883 00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:32,799 Speaker 1: I don't think of it is if you're opening the 884 00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:36,479 Speaker 1: portal up to people with no password, then it's yeah. 885 00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:38,799 Speaker 1: You know, I've told the story before, but I haven't 886 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:40,840 Speaker 1: told him a while. When I was in Buffalo after 887 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 1: a Bill's game, I had this brilliant idea, we'll just 888 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,160 Speaker 1: go to a hotel room. Well, we'll go to a 889 00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 1: hotel check in after the game. We don't have to 890 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,239 Speaker 1: book a room because it's like Buffalo. Who the hell 891 00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:54,400 Speaker 1: stays in Buffalo. So we went to a several hotels. 892 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:57,440 Speaker 1: They were all booked because everyone with the crowd, so 893 00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 1: we couldn't get a hotel room. So we spent the 894 00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:05,280 Speaker 1: night in the rental car across from the Buffalo Niagara 895 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 1: Airport at a hotel in the parking lot. And the 896 00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:11,600 Speaker 1: reason we did that is because they had WiFi that 897 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,799 Speaker 1: we we'd been playing on our our phone all night 898 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 1: and I was with my brother and my younger brother 899 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:21,319 Speaker 1: who's now losing Wisconsin, and uh yeah, we sat in 900 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:24,360 Speaker 1: the car until the sun came up. We tried to sleep, 901 00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 1: I didn't really sleep, and then moved on to our 902 00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 1: next next, next to dation. But I'd like to thank that. 903 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 1: I think it was like a holiday in I'd like 904 00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:34,520 Speaker 1: to thank the holiday and for not having a password 905 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:38,000 Speaker 1: on their WiFi signal too. Yeah, it was yeah, because 906 00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,040 Speaker 1: we were right out in front of the lobby in 907 00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:43,440 Speaker 1: the parking lot and uh yeah, sitting there all right. 908 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:48,000 Speaker 1: A thirty per cent of people have never once taken 909 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:57,320 Speaker 1: this advice to do do do do do wow, um 910 00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:01,399 Speaker 1: wow wow wow wow wow. Move to town, move out 911 00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 1: of town. Uh no, here's our soup of the day, 912 00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:10,000 Speaker 1: A recommendation from somebody at the restaurant, like my wife 913 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:12,439 Speaker 1: will ask sometimes say it is so and so good. 914 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:16,440 Speaker 1: I've always been of the mindset, why would you ask 915 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:20,480 Speaker 1: the waiter what's good or not, because oftentimes they're gonna 916 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:22,160 Speaker 1: If I was a waiter at a restaurant and somebody 917 00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:24,160 Speaker 1: asked me what's good, I would say the most expensive 918 00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 1: thing on the menu is what I would say. Right, 919 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 1: So I got a couple more here, I gotta put 920 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,399 Speaker 1: the baby to bed. A survey of adults asked what 921 00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:38,600 Speaker 1: was the scariest thing in your childhood when you were 922 00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:43,759 Speaker 1: growing up? What is the scariest thing? Um? I fun 923 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,080 Speaker 1: for me, it was all my dad was piste off. 924 00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:49,600 Speaker 1: Oh your dad was anger of your dad. And they said, 925 00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:52,319 Speaker 1: this doesn't really affect a lot of kids in California 926 00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:56,279 Speaker 1: or the West. The basement. We don't have basements in 927 00:50:56,360 --> 00:51:00,400 Speaker 1: California because of earthquakes. Yeah, we have addicts, no Bay Smiths. 928 00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:03,719 Speaker 1: But yeah, the the basement. I wish i'd had. Basements 929 00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:06,279 Speaker 1: are fun. I wish we had basements. I wish that's 930 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:09,360 Speaker 1: an added space bone that could be. Most guys have 931 00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 1: their man cave in the basement. It's you, that's your sanctuary. 932 00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 1: But in the West, no sanctuary does not happen. All right, 933 00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,359 Speaker 1: last one here on the pop quiz, and we'll put 934 00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:23,680 Speaker 1: the baby to bed. A new survey asked Americans ton 935 00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:28,040 Speaker 1: am a habit that helps wake them up in the morning? Now, 936 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:31,040 Speaker 1: drinking coffee was obviously the most common answer. What was 937 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:38,319 Speaker 1: numbered two? Taking a piss? Nobody beats the whiz That 938 00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:45,280 Speaker 1: is incorrect, incorrect. The correct answer brushing your teeth. Brushing 939 00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:48,400 Speaker 1: your teeth wakes you. How about for me, it was 940 00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:51,360 Speaker 1: throwing water in my face that would wake me up. 941 00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:52,880 Speaker 1: You know, you kind of go, you look at the mirror, 942 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:55,120 Speaker 1: your little groggy there, and you splash some water in 943 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:58,440 Speaker 1: your face. You never shower first thing in the morning. Now, 944 00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:00,879 Speaker 1: I shower before I go to bed. I'm a I'm 945 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 1: a shower before bed. Guy. I don't like to go 946 00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 1: to bed dirty, so I shower before I go to sleep. 947 00:52:05,880 --> 00:52:07,920 Speaker 1: I figured, how dirty do I get when I'm sleeping? 948 00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 1: Do you typically brush your teeth when you wake up 949 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:15,279 Speaker 1: and go to bed? Uh? No, I again, I'll do 950 00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:17,960 Speaker 1: it jury right right before I go to bed. And 951 00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:21,920 Speaker 1: I'll also do it. Uh. You know sometimes I have 952 00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:23,880 Speaker 1: like a kind of a meal, it's spicy or something 953 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:25,480 Speaker 1: like that. I'll brush my teeth during the day, but 954 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 1: usually it's before I go to bed. All right, Yeah, interesting, 955 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:32,839 Speaker 1: that's right. Uh And that's it all right? Listen, Thank 956 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:37,320 Speaker 1: you all.
