<v Speaker 1>Kutbooms.

0:00:02.320 --> 0:00:05.400
<v Speaker 2>If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes

0:00:05.440 --> 0:00:09.200
<v Speaker 2>a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

0:00:09.200 --> 0:00:12.480
<v Speaker 2>of the Old Republic, a soul fashion of fairness. He

0:00:12.600 --> 0:00:15.520
<v Speaker 2>treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the

0:00:15.640 --> 0:00:17.480
<v Speaker 2>rich pill poppers in the penthouse.

0:00:18.079 --> 0:00:18.360
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

0:00:18.600 --> 0:00:22.320
<v Speaker 2>The Clearinghouse of Hot takes break free for something special.

<v Speaker 2>The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now.

0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:34.239
<v Speaker 1>In the air everywhere. The Fifth Hour with Ben mal

0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:36.520
<v Speaker 1>That would be me saying my name and the third

0:00:36.520 --> 0:00:39.440
<v Speaker 1>person and Danny g Radio. This is not the original

0:00:39.479 --> 0:00:41.920
<v Speaker 1>recipe podcast that would be the overnight show during the week.

0:00:42.080 --> 0:00:45.680
<v Speaker 1>This is the Extra Crispy, extra Spicy Fifth Hour podcast,

0:00:46.000 --> 0:00:49.000
<v Speaker 1>only available here because we can say bad words like

0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:52.280
<v Speaker 1>the word shit. We can't say the word shit on radio,

0:00:52.520 --> 0:00:54.640
<v Speaker 1>but we can say the word shit here on the podcast.

0:00:54.880 --> 0:00:57.320
<v Speaker 1>That's how you know it's a podcast, Danny, and not

0:00:57.480 --> 0:01:02.400
<v Speaker 1>some broadcast thing on commercial radio. No no, no, no

0:01:02.400 --> 0:01:03.040
<v Speaker 1>no no.

0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:06.000
<v Speaker 3>This past throwback Thursday on C and R, we were

0:01:06.000 --> 0:01:09.720
<v Speaker 3>talking about America's best jingles of all time. I know

0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:12.040
<v Speaker 3>You're a jingle guy, I love jingle. We brought that

0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:18.039
<v Speaker 3>up number one radio station jingles TV commercials all that.

0:01:18.959 --> 0:01:22.560
<v Speaker 3>There was actually a national radio campaign in the late nineties.

0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:25.280
<v Speaker 3>It was for corn nuts. Do you remember this. They

0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:31.000
<v Speaker 3>sang bust a nut, bust a nut. And I don't

0:01:31.080 --> 0:01:33.720
<v Speaker 3>think that that would be okay to play on the

0:01:33.840 --> 0:01:35.679
<v Speaker 3>radio right now. I don't know how they got away

0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:36.400
<v Speaker 3>with it back then.

0:01:36.840 --> 0:01:39.320
<v Speaker 1>Now, if you want to have fun and totally nerd

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:43.119
<v Speaker 1>yourself out on YouTube, there's a portal you can go

0:01:43.200 --> 0:01:45.120
<v Speaker 1>in that's nothing but old jingles.

0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:46.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I love it.

0:01:46.000 --> 0:01:49.560
<v Speaker 1>It is so awesome. And I always ring this up

0:01:49.560 --> 0:01:51.680
<v Speaker 1>when we talk about jingles because I'm a radio nerd

0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:56.000
<v Speaker 1>and we've talked about this before. Clayton Kershaw's father, Yeah,

0:01:56.360 --> 0:01:59.480
<v Speaker 1>made his living composing radio jingles.

0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:02.120
<v Speaker 3>He was museum. I brought that up on the show.

0:02:02.160 --> 0:02:03.960
<v Speaker 3>They had not none of them knew about that.

0:02:04.200 --> 0:02:06.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's a great fun fact. Clayton Kerschel's father passed

0:02:06.400 --> 0:02:08.040
<v Speaker 1>away about, you know, ten years ago, but he was

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:12.880
<v Speaker 1>a He was a composer of jingles for radio stations.

0:02:12.880 --> 0:02:15.920
<v Speaker 3>And there's what you had a name shout, So did I.

0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:19.959
<v Speaker 3>Right before everything went digital. We had these carts and

0:02:20.080 --> 0:02:22.600
<v Speaker 3>it set our name on it. It's a jingle shout

0:02:22.960 --> 0:02:25.080
<v Speaker 3>and there'd be a jingle. It was like back to

0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:28.680
<v Speaker 3>back fresh jams. And then there was a donut where

0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:31.160
<v Speaker 3>just the music was there with no singing, and I

0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:34.040
<v Speaker 3>would hit the shout saying Danny G. And then it

0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:37.799
<v Speaker 3>would say Q one O four seven or something like that.

0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:40.239
<v Speaker 3>You know, it was so cool. Z one hundred in

0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:44.040
<v Speaker 3>New York had a famous jingle. Most famous stations from

0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:45.400
<v Speaker 3>back in the day had a jingle.

0:02:45.760 --> 0:02:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there was a period everyone did. It was a

0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:53.240
<v Speaker 1>very popular form of advertising. Jingles have actually been used

0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:56.240
<v Speaker 1>for how many use you think jingle has been around?

0:02:56.639 --> 0:02:58.800
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting started in the nineteen twenties, but I bet you

0:02:58.800 --> 0:03:03.120
<v Speaker 1>they predate broadcast. Thing you did the McDonald's one yesterday's podcast,

0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:04.320
<v Speaker 1>didn't you? Oh?

0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:07.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? The butt up which a rapper actually wrote that one,

0:03:07.960 --> 0:03:08.239
<v Speaker 3>did he?

0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:09.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Okay, all right?

0:03:10.160 --> 0:03:12.680
<v Speaker 3>Push a t from a popular group called the.

0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Clips Nationwide is on your side. That's kind of right.

0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:19.640
<v Speaker 1>The one I quote all the time when a player

0:03:19.639 --> 0:03:21.720
<v Speaker 1>gets hurt. What do I say anytime a player gets hurt?

0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 1>Danny G? What is my my go to line? I

0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:31.600
<v Speaker 1>quote Rice Crispies, Snap Pop. That's partly because when I

0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:34.400
<v Speaker 1>was a kid, I I recall though, that commercial, it's

0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:35.200
<v Speaker 1>stuck in my head.

0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:41.360
<v Speaker 3>Remember Arms did Lucky Charms had a famous jingle magically delicious.

0:03:41.680 --> 0:03:46.800
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, how about this one pop pop fizz fizzhe

0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:47.320
<v Speaker 1>it is?

0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:52.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, YouTube had a top ten and that was in there. Boy, Oh,

0:03:53.240 --> 0:03:55.960
<v Speaker 3>kit Cat, give me a break, Give me a break.

0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:58.720
<v Speaker 3>Here's the winging off a piece of that kit Cat bar.

0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:01.120
<v Speaker 1>That's a good one. How about this one, I Wish

0:04:01.280 --> 0:04:03.160
<v Speaker 1>I was an oscar by your wead.

0:04:05.000 --> 0:04:07.720
<v Speaker 3>That's one of the og ones that lasted for years,

0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:10.600
<v Speaker 3>the old school band aid jingle.

0:04:11.360 --> 0:04:13.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Oh, how about I don't want to grow up,

0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:18.440
<v Speaker 1>I want to be a toys Yeah, that was solid, man.

0:04:18.400 --> 0:04:20.040
<v Speaker 3>There's been so many over the years.

0:04:20.080 --> 0:04:21.640
<v Speaker 1>We keep going, no one, no one will be listening

0:04:21.680 --> 0:04:23.320
<v Speaker 1>to this party. We can keep going, will be the

0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:26.239
<v Speaker 1>only ones doing. Nobody, nobody listen, you got.

0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:31.320
<v Speaker 3>No man, check this out. Not only were we flooded

0:04:31.400 --> 0:04:34.880
<v Speaker 3>with calls that hour, people were still calling about it

0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:38.640
<v Speaker 3>on Friday afternoon and texting and tweeting about it. So

0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:41.719
<v Speaker 3>this struck a nerve, a good nerve with people. Because

0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:46.279
<v Speaker 3>this stuff it's proven. Obviously, it stays in our head forever.

0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:49.880
<v Speaker 1>No, it's true. Listen when when I think about ice cream,

0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:52.720
<v Speaker 1>I think about what would you do for a condact bar.

0:04:53.160 --> 0:04:56.320
<v Speaker 3>That's a good one. Nobody brought that one up. How

0:04:56.320 --> 0:05:00.640
<v Speaker 3>about here's it? How about Mentos? Mentos Nils had that go.

0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:02.640
<v Speaker 3>Remember the guy in the suit, he sits down on

0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:05.200
<v Speaker 3>the wet paint, gets up and they just make his

0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:06.560
<v Speaker 3>whole suit striped.

0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:16.599
<v Speaker 1>The fresh maker. Oh yeah, yeah, I remember, I remember that.

0:05:16.800 --> 0:05:20.520
<v Speaker 1>How about the one that was an infomercial and everyone

0:05:20.600 --> 0:05:22.600
<v Speaker 1>used to goof on it. I think it's in the

0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:28.279
<v Speaker 1>late eighties, early nineties. Clap on, clap off, the clapper. Yeah.

0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:32.200
<v Speaker 3>Guy said that these are stingers, the word for what

0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:35.480
<v Speaker 3>we do, a stinger. But like when you're out playing

0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:38.359
<v Speaker 3>softball in a rec league or something like that and

0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:42.440
<v Speaker 3>somebody makes a great snag, you'll always hear somebody go

0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:43.920
<v Speaker 3>no no, no, no, no.

0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:46.400
<v Speaker 1>No, oh yes, ESPN.

0:05:46.360 --> 0:05:49.919
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, play of the day. And then also with the

0:05:50.040 --> 0:05:53.279
<v Speaker 3>NFL Draft coming up this week, that tone they play

0:05:53.600 --> 0:05:54.480
<v Speaker 3>before every pick.

0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:59.360
<v Speaker 1>Sure he's in yeah no, no, no. I'm reading a study,

0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:01.960
<v Speaker 1>it says study was according to a recent study, up

0:06:01.960 --> 0:06:04.200
<v Speaker 1>to ninety five up to as a weasel term, but

0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:06.560
<v Speaker 1>up to ninety five percent of people who here jingles

0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:12.599
<v Speaker 1>are remembered by them the most effective marketing tool. But

0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:16.600
<v Speaker 1>yet at some point in our business and radio they

0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:20.120
<v Speaker 1>were looked down upon as being old and dated and

0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:22.800
<v Speaker 1>dusty and you can't use them. But yet there they work.

0:06:23.080 --> 0:06:25.279
<v Speaker 3>I feel like they're on the comeback because there's a

0:06:25.279 --> 0:06:28.440
<v Speaker 3>couple of commercials playing on our network right now where

0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:31.240
<v Speaker 3>you hear a jingle and it's a new, modern product.

0:06:31.680 --> 0:06:33.359
<v Speaker 3>I just don't think they're ever gonna die.

0:06:34.160 --> 0:06:36.360
<v Speaker 1>Now, Well, we should have the we should have the

0:06:36.400 --> 0:06:39.200
<v Speaker 1>company make like a jingle open for the podcast.

0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:42.600
<v Speaker 3>That, yeah, that would be good, right, yeah.

0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:44.000
<v Speaker 1>If I think we're gonna got to the mailbag tomorrow,

0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:49.000
<v Speaker 1>but somebody for number one, yeah something the number one, yeah,

0:06:49.040 --> 0:06:51.720
<v Speaker 1>because I'll get I don't want to do it now.

0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:53.960
<v Speaker 1>But in the mailbag somebody had written in saying, are

0:06:54.000 --> 0:06:56.480
<v Speaker 1>you going to change the open to the podcast? And

0:06:56.520 --> 0:07:00.120
<v Speaker 1>we should if we ever do change it, I think

0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:02.479
<v Speaker 1>we should go that way. I think we should find

0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:03.040
<v Speaker 1>the jingle.

0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:03.880
<v Speaker 3>That's idea.

0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:06.640
<v Speaker 1>I think we just go big, go jingle or go home.

0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:08.840
<v Speaker 1>So we had the Mallard travel logs.

0:07:08.720 --> 0:07:14.040
<v Speaker 3>See Cow Go, See Cow Cow, which, by the way,

0:07:14.080 --> 0:07:16.560
<v Speaker 3>as little kids, we thought it was pussy Cow, pussy Cow.

0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:23.480
<v Speaker 3>These guys on the show, they're not from LA, so

0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:25.320
<v Speaker 3>they had no idea what I was talking about. But

0:07:25.360 --> 0:07:27.480
<v Speaker 3>my older brother was cracking up, laughing.

0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:32.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's a solid. So we had a travelog yesterday.

0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:35.760
<v Speaker 1>We will continue a little bit of the travelog.

0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:37.480
<v Speaker 3>Will day shot nurse style.

0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:43.600
<v Speaker 1>We start out with the wedding weekend Uber And I'm

0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:46.400
<v Speaker 1>not talking about like actually using Uber or any of

0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:49.560
<v Speaker 1>the car writing services. I was the Uber. So we

0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:52.400
<v Speaker 1>had rented a car to drive from LA to the

0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:57.520
<v Speaker 1>Bay Area, and my mother in law tagged along. Now

0:07:57.720 --> 0:08:00.120
<v Speaker 1>you hear horror stories about mothers in law and all that,

0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:01.360
<v Speaker 1>but I get along with.

0:08:01.280 --> 0:08:02.040
<v Speaker 3>My mother in law.

0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:06.200
<v Speaker 1>So she's a nice woman, a little neurotic at times

0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:09.200
<v Speaker 1>because he's a nurse. She was a nurse in the

0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:12.760
<v Speaker 1>trauma emergency room in LA one of the worst neighborhoods

0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:15.480
<v Speaker 1>in LA for her career, but she's cool. We get

0:08:15.520 --> 0:08:17.400
<v Speaker 1>along well. But she was in the car with us

0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:21.400
<v Speaker 1>on the ten hour drive up to Northern California and

0:08:21.440 --> 0:08:26.240
<v Speaker 1>then at the hotel a bunch of the family, pretty

0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:28.120
<v Speaker 1>much everyone because most of the people don't live in

0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:30.640
<v Speaker 1>Northern California, so they were all staying at this hotel,

0:08:31.000 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 1>people from all over the country. And in order to

0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:37.040
<v Speaker 1>get to the wedding. We'll tell you about that in

0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:38.680
<v Speaker 1>a second, because I know you're dying to hear about

0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:40.959
<v Speaker 1>some random wedding of people you don't know. But the

0:08:41.240 --> 0:08:44.640
<v Speaker 1>wedding was in the forest. Like I'd never been to

0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:46.360
<v Speaker 1>a wedding in the forest. It was out in the

0:08:46.400 --> 0:08:49.320
<v Speaker 1>redwood forest, which I didn't even knows possible you could

0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:52.080
<v Speaker 1>do that. But there was like a ranch, which is

0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:53.520
<v Speaker 1>not a ranch because it's in a forest, So I

0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:55.520
<v Speaker 1>don't know what the hell you call it. Resort something.

0:08:55.760 --> 0:08:56.760
<v Speaker 1>They had wedding.

0:08:56.880 --> 0:08:59.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, in space. I've seen this before up there.

0:08:59.480 --> 0:09:02.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I've never seen that. But anyway, in order to

0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:06.360
<v Speaker 1>get to the forest, you couldn't drive out there. There

0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:08.280
<v Speaker 1>wasn't room to park. It was in the middle of

0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:11.480
<v Speaker 1>the forest, and so you had to go to a

0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:16.240
<v Speaker 1>destination drop off at this location and they picked up

0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:18.760
<v Speaker 1>a shuttle. Yes, a shuttle bus takes you out to

0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:21.199
<v Speaker 1>the forest. But to get there, there's not a lot

0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:23.280
<v Speaker 1>of parking. So I had.

0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:25.199
<v Speaker 3>The rental car to four by four shuttle.

0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:29.600
<v Speaker 1>So so Danny I was the uber I was. I

0:09:29.679 --> 0:09:33.760
<v Speaker 1>drove all the aunts, my wife's family, cousins, people I

0:09:33.760 --> 0:09:36.040
<v Speaker 1>don't even know who they were. I drove them to

0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:37.080
<v Speaker 1>the location.

0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:38.920
<v Speaker 3>I was the Uber Benny the bus driver.

0:09:42.120 --> 0:09:44.760
<v Speaker 1>Let me tell you something. You know, I went all in.

0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:47.320
<v Speaker 1>I went all in. You know, we have some great

0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:49.760
<v Speaker 1>Uber drivers that listen to the show, the Overnight radio

0:09:49.800 --> 0:09:54.360
<v Speaker 1>show and whatnot. And my move is I went out

0:09:54.400 --> 0:09:58.079
<v Speaker 1>there and I offered them mints, Like a good Uber driver,

0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:01.280
<v Speaker 1>what kind of music do you want? You know, whatever

0:10:01.280 --> 0:10:01.800
<v Speaker 1>you need.

0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:03.720
<v Speaker 3>You know, the whole thing iPhone charger.

0:10:04.120 --> 0:10:06.000
<v Speaker 1>I did not have that, but I had the mints

0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:06.640
<v Speaker 1>and I had the.

0:10:06.640 --> 0:10:09.680
<v Speaker 3>Music mini water bottles, and so we.

0:10:09.640 --> 0:10:14.640
<v Speaker 1>Drove them, drove them around and cons it would be

0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:17.600
<v Speaker 1>a little awkward, but no, So that was my gig.

0:10:17.640 --> 0:10:19.840
<v Speaker 1>And then we went and I parked, and then we

0:10:19.880 --> 0:10:24.080
<v Speaker 1>went out to the wedding. And this is so I

0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:26.800
<v Speaker 1>got in this debate with my my wife and because

0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:30.440
<v Speaker 1>the wedding started, we had to be there. I think

0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:32.880
<v Speaker 1>that we were there at like four o'clock. And so

0:10:32.920 --> 0:10:35.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, okay, when when are we out on this?

0:10:35.280 --> 0:10:37.080
<v Speaker 1>Like what's the outtime on this? Because we had to

0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:40.240
<v Speaker 1>wait for a shuttle, and so the wife's like Okay,

0:10:40.240 --> 0:10:43.240
<v Speaker 1>So it ends at ten. So I'm like, I'm I'm

0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:49.120
<v Speaker 1>six hours. I'm like, and I'm explaining to my wife

0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:53.000
<v Speaker 1>that in any event, like I look at these things

0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:57.520
<v Speaker 1>like a Vegas show or a Broadway play. If you've

0:10:57.559 --> 0:11:02.000
<v Speaker 1>ever been to a Broadway play, there nutes and there's

0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:04.520
<v Speaker 1>a there's a break in the middle, right there, No

0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:06.800
<v Speaker 1>more than ninety minutes. You go to a Vegas show,

0:11:06.920 --> 0:11:10.280
<v Speaker 1>they're ninety minutes and there's a there's a mid season,

0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:13.600
<v Speaker 1>mid act break or whatever. And so I'm like, well,

0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:15.719
<v Speaker 1>why don't we just go. We'll do the wedding, will

0:11:16.000 --> 0:11:19.120
<v Speaker 1>take about fifteen minutes, we'll stick around, we'll wait for

0:11:19.160 --> 0:11:21.319
<v Speaker 1>the cake, and then the cake's the sign to go,

0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:24.160
<v Speaker 1>and then we're out after the cake. We don't need

0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:26.480
<v Speaker 1>to stay, you know. And my wife said, well, no,

0:11:26.520 --> 0:11:28.640
<v Speaker 1>this is my brother's wedding. We're going to stay, and

0:11:28.679 --> 0:11:31.160
<v Speaker 1>you know. But but no, it's ninety minutes, you know,

0:11:31.280 --> 0:11:33.080
<v Speaker 1>and they won't even know when we're gone and all that.

0:11:33.120 --> 0:11:36.400
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, so we ended up staying till the very end, Danny,

0:11:36.800 --> 0:11:40.280
<v Speaker 1>the very end of this wedding. But I want you

0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:42.360
<v Speaker 1>to know that I made the most of my time

0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:45.040
<v Speaker 1>because I tore the floora I was. I was torn

0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:46.880
<v Speaker 1>up from the floor up. I tore the dance floor up.

0:11:46.960 --> 0:11:47.360
<v Speaker 1>Is what I do.

0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:53.480
<v Speaker 3>I was disco Benny out there, centipede man.

0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:54.960
<v Speaker 1>I figured.

0:11:55.559 --> 0:12:00.960
<v Speaker 4>You know, my my wife white boy racist. Yeah, so

0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:04.480
<v Speaker 4>my my wife has taken me out dancing a few times,

0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:07.560
<v Speaker 4>mainly because she likes to dance. I don't, but I

0:12:07.640 --> 0:12:11.400
<v Speaker 4>have a little little niece and nephew, and my niece

0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:14.400
<v Speaker 4>loves to dance, right, so she wants to dance with

0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:15.040
<v Speaker 4>Uncle Benny.

0:12:15.640 --> 0:12:18.440
<v Speaker 1>So I'm like all right, and so my move this

0:12:18.559 --> 0:12:21.640
<v Speaker 1>is my move is too because I'm a big guy.

0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:24.760
<v Speaker 1>I do the dance move, and then I can pick

0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:27.280
<v Speaker 1>the kids up and spin them around like they're on

0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:29.959
<v Speaker 1>a ride, one of those rides at the carnival, and

0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:33.400
<v Speaker 1>they every kid loves this, right, so we do the day.

0:12:33.480 --> 0:12:36.360
<v Speaker 1>I pick them up and spin them by their arms around.

0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:38.520
<v Speaker 3>Like that new three sixty camera they have at the

0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:39.800
<v Speaker 3>Super Bowl at our stage.

0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:43.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, So I'm doing this, and then what do

0:12:43.200 --> 0:12:45.480

<v Speaker 3>Do it again?

0:12:46.440 --> 0:12:49.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, do it again? Right, I'm like and I'm like, well,

0:12:49.880 --> 0:12:51.320
<v Speaker 1>on my head, I'm like sure, you know, I got it.

0:12:51.320 --> 0:12:54.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm stuck. I'm prisoner until ten o'clock.

0:12:54.640 --> 0:12:56.120
<v Speaker 3>You throw up your chicken.

0:12:56.720 --> 0:12:58.840
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, I did it so many times. I

0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:01.760
<v Speaker 1>had to stop and I was walking like I was drunk.

0:13:02.040 --> 0:13:04.000
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't even walk in a straight line. I had

0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:06.920
<v Speaker 1>to put my hands on the wall. It was so bad.

0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:10.640
<v Speaker 3>I was like, oh my god, you were sipping some whiskey.

0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:14.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And then by the by the time the night

0:13:14.440 --> 0:13:18.520
<v Speaker 1>is going on. My my nephew, this this kid, Jude,

0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:22.120
<v Speaker 1>this kid, he's like he's getting so sweaty. He takes

0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:25.000
<v Speaker 1>his shirt off like he's a Chippindale's dancer.

0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:27.760
<v Speaker 3>Down Now.

0:13:27.920 --> 0:13:28.960
<v Speaker 1>It's it's why it was.

0:13:29.040 --> 0:13:30.000
<v Speaker 3>It was. It was fun.

0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:32.920
<v Speaker 1>It was a good time, and I actually enjoyed it.

0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:35.200
<v Speaker 1>I didn't. I didn't. I made the most of my time.

0:13:35.200 --> 0:13:36.800
<v Speaker 1>I figured I had to be there anyway, so might

0:13:36.840 --> 0:13:40.000
<v Speaker 1>as well have a good time. Although there was one

0:13:40.200 --> 0:13:44.880
<v Speaker 1>awkward moment, which my my wife says is like a

0:13:44.920 --> 0:13:48.319
<v Speaker 1>Larry David type moment. There, like a Curby enthusiasm type moment.

0:13:48.400 --> 0:13:52.959
<v Speaker 1>So at the the meal, most important part of the wedding,

0:13:52.960 --> 0:13:55.160
<v Speaker 1>the meal, you know that you know, you give the

0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:56.839
<v Speaker 1>gift and you gotta be there and you gotta get

0:13:56.840 --> 0:13:58.480
<v Speaker 1>the food, and most wedding food sucks.

0:13:58.480 --> 0:13:59.000
<v Speaker 3>This was okay.

0:13:59.000 --> 0:14:02.079
<v Speaker 1>They had bugogi and rice for me, which was pretty good.

0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:06.120
<v Speaker 1>I like bugogi. Cut that meat. They have it at

0:14:06.160 --> 0:14:10.040
<v Speaker 1>Costco where I live anyway, So whatever, find eat. And

0:14:10.120 --> 0:14:13.240
<v Speaker 1>as as I'm eating, I did get a bad piece

0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:17.240
<v Speaker 1>of ugogie, kind of a chewy one. So I had

0:14:17.280 --> 0:14:19.840
<v Speaker 1>options here, Danny, all right, I'm going to fork in

0:14:19.880 --> 0:14:25.200
<v Speaker 1>the road. Do I a just keep powering through and

0:14:25.320 --> 0:14:29.320
<v Speaker 1>chew the bubblegum like piece of meat which I found disgusting,

0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:30.120
<v Speaker 1>and just.

0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:31.440
<v Speaker 3>Go for it.

0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:37.080
<v Speaker 1>Do I be spit it out into a napkin, a

0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:40.240
<v Speaker 1>nice cloth napkin in front of everyone at the table

0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:44.640
<v Speaker 1>who's looking at me, or see, go to the bathroom,

0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:47.840
<v Speaker 1>excuse myself, and then you get rid of it in

0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:48.400
<v Speaker 1>the bathroom.

0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:50.760
<v Speaker 3>But you got to keep it in your mouth like

0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:51.360
<v Speaker 3>a squirrel.

0:14:51.840 --> 0:14:54.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you gotta be like a nineteen eighties baseball player

0:14:54.520 --> 0:14:58.920
<v Speaker 1>with chewing with tobacco, chewing tobacco. So I chose, see, Danny,

0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:00.640
<v Speaker 1>I try. I thought that was the light thing. I

0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:03.080
<v Speaker 1>thought that was the proper decorum. But here's where I got.

0:15:03.160 --> 0:15:07.040
<v Speaker 1>I got totally screwed. This is great, So I'm like,

0:15:07.640 --> 0:15:09.360
<v Speaker 1>I kind of mumbled to the wife, I gotta go

0:15:09.360 --> 0:15:10.840
<v Speaker 1>to the bathroom. I didn't have to go to the

0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:12.840
<v Speaker 1>bathroom at all, by the way, I did not have

0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:16.320
<v Speaker 1>to go to the bathroom at all, and so fine.

0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:20.000
<v Speaker 1>But I got up and I waddled off to the bathroom,

0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:21.800
<v Speaker 1>which is up a hill by the way, and go

0:15:21.840 --> 0:15:25.360
<v Speaker 1>outside on the cold, crisp night. They put a tent

0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:27.800
<v Speaker 1>up in the forest to have the dinner. So I

0:15:27.840 --> 0:15:31.240
<v Speaker 1>walk up to the bathroom area and I walk over.

0:15:31.440 --> 0:15:35.240
<v Speaker 1>I opened the door and out comes the groom of

0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:37.920
<v Speaker 1>the wedding. He had gone my brother in law to

0:15:38.000 --> 0:15:41.560
<v Speaker 1>go to the bathroom, and he says, hey, Ben, good

0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:45.280
<v Speaker 1>to see you like that. I I couldn't say anything

0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:47.640
<v Speaker 1>because I had the water meat in my mouth, So

0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:52.080
<v Speaker 1>I was a dick hell and I didn't say anything

0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:55.480
<v Speaker 1>to him. It was very I felt terrible because it

0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:55.680
<v Speaker 1>was in.

0:15:55.760 --> 0:15:58.080
<v Speaker 3>E motion, use your hands like you're Italian.

0:15:58.520 --> 0:16:01.280
<v Speaker 1>Oh so bad Dan, I mean, this is he just

0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:04.200
<v Speaker 1>got married. He's like nice, He's saying hello to me,

0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:07.240
<v Speaker 1>and I couldn't say anything because I had the lot

0:16:07.240 --> 0:16:10.360
<v Speaker 1>of the bad meat that was the bubble gump in

0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:11.080
<v Speaker 1>my mouth.

0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:13.680
<v Speaker 3>And were you able to redeem yourself later.

0:16:14.200 --> 0:16:16.040
<v Speaker 1>Well, I said hello to him late. I don't I

0:16:16.080 --> 0:16:19.400
<v Speaker 1>think he was enjoying himself with the open bar there,

0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:21.120
<v Speaker 1>so I think I don't think he cared too much.

0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:24.000
<v Speaker 1>But I felt bad. I felt bad about it. I

0:16:24.040 --> 0:16:26.160
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh man, but I didn't. You know, if

0:16:26.200 --> 0:16:27.800
<v Speaker 1>I would have been I felt like it would have

0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:30.600
<v Speaker 1>been worse, Danny, if I had started to say hey,

0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:32.840
<v Speaker 1>brother in law, and then the meat starts falling out

0:16:32.880 --> 0:16:37.480
<v Speaker 1>of my motion with your hands to a head nod.

0:16:38.640 --> 0:16:41.760
<v Speaker 3>This has happened to me before, because I try not

0:16:41.800 --> 0:16:43.360
<v Speaker 3>to do it now. But I have the little travel

0:16:43.400 --> 0:16:46.640
<v Speaker 3>sized mouthwash okay, and obviously I'm not carrying a toothbrush

0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:49.320
<v Speaker 3>around at work. But there's some times where, you know,

0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:52.200
<v Speaker 3>after a late lunch at the studios, I want to

0:16:52.320 --> 0:16:55.640
<v Speaker 3>use the mouthwash and I'll be walking to the bathroom

0:16:55.680 --> 0:16:57.760
<v Speaker 3>to spit it out, and somebody will try to stop

0:16:57.760 --> 0:17:01.880
<v Speaker 3>me and speak to me, give me a point at

0:17:01.920 --> 0:17:05.680
<v Speaker 3>your mouth. You're they're like, what what's in your mouth?

0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:14.920
<v Speaker 3>You weirdo? And fish? So it's it's it's all bad.

0:17:15.720 --> 0:17:19.919
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's uh, it's pretty pretty wild. What else did

0:17:19.960 --> 0:17:21.280
<v Speaker 1>there as a couple of things that happened that I

0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:24.439
<v Speaker 1>wanted to share with the class here. Uh. When we

0:17:24.440 --> 0:17:25.919
<v Speaker 1>were you know, we had a day where we were

0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:28.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of did some family stuff in the afternoon and evening,

0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:30.720
<v Speaker 1>but in the morning time we went to the Winchester House.

0:17:30.880 --> 0:17:32.479
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever been You've been to the Oh?

0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:35.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, my. When my family moved up to the Bay,

0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:38.520
<v Speaker 3>my elementary school took us on a field trip there

0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:40.120
<v Speaker 3>and I was spooped out as a kid.

0:17:40.560 --> 0:17:45.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So the Winchester House is the first testimonial to

0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:50.080
<v Speaker 1>mental illness. Uh and uh, because I I learned, you know,

0:17:50.119 --> 0:17:51.680
<v Speaker 1>when I didn't really know much about it, I knew

0:17:51.680 --> 0:17:53.720
<v Speaker 1>it was haunted, and I knew it was like the biggest,

0:17:53.720 --> 0:17:57.760
<v Speaker 1>most ridiculous house they never stopped building. The the daughter

0:17:57.800 --> 0:17:59.439
<v Speaker 1>of the Winchester gun family.

0:17:59.760 --> 0:18:03.439
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, And so she believed the ghosts of anyone

0:18:03.560 --> 0:18:06.320
<v Speaker 3>killed by one of those rifles were coming back to

0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:09.800
<v Speaker 3>haunt her. So she built on, kept adding on to

0:18:10.280 --> 0:18:14.760
<v Speaker 3>trying to fool the ghosts into like fake hallways rooms

0:18:14.920 --> 0:18:15.840
<v Speaker 3>that yeah.

0:18:16.000 --> 0:18:20.119
<v Speaker 1>Like yeah. But the story that the tour guide said

0:18:20.240 --> 0:18:22.440
<v Speaker 1>was the reason she did that is she because she

0:18:22.520 --> 0:18:25.840
<v Speaker 1>went to like a psychic or something or a medium

0:18:25.920 --> 0:18:29.440
<v Speaker 1>who told her listen, if you just keep never stop building,

0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:33.520
<v Speaker 1>and that's that'll keep the spirits away. You think that

0:18:33.560 --> 0:18:37.359
<v Speaker 1>person like laughed, kept laughing at the woman, listened to

0:18:37.400 --> 0:18:39.720
<v Speaker 1>her or him and just kept building.

0:18:40.040 --> 0:18:42.920
<v Speaker 3>Maybe that was the wife of the construction guy.

0:18:43.280 --> 0:18:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Right in the well, and it was built for that.

0:18:48.760 --> 0:18:51.679
<v Speaker 1>She was a very small woman, and I was walking

0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:53.560
<v Speaker 1>around there. I'm a pretty tall guy. It was the

0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:56.520
<v Speaker 1>stairs were not designed for people with my size shoes

0:18:56.560 --> 0:18:58.399
<v Speaker 1>and stuff, but it was. It was cool, and they

0:18:58.440 --> 0:18:59.880
<v Speaker 1>got rid of most of it. There's only a little

0:18:59.880 --> 0:19:01.399
<v Speaker 1>bit of it left, like they tore a lot of

0:19:01.440 --> 0:19:01.880
<v Speaker 1>it down.

0:19:02.160 --> 0:19:05.600
<v Speaker 3>Not only that, did you notice what is surrounding that house?

0:19:05.680 --> 0:19:08.399
<v Speaker 1>Now, Well, there's a movie theater on one side.

0:19:08.480 --> 0:19:12.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Yeah, and there's like an open air mall. There's

0:19:12.800 --> 0:19:18.280
<v Speaker 3>all these office buildings, modern buildings surrounding this old, old mansion.

0:19:18.800 --> 0:19:20.879
<v Speaker 3>And it's crazy because when I went as a kid,

0:19:21.280 --> 0:19:23.480
<v Speaker 3>that movie theater was there, but there wasn't all the

0:19:23.560 --> 0:19:28.879
<v Speaker 3>other businesses surrounding it. So talk about some property that

0:19:29.240 --> 0:19:31.880
<v Speaker 3>is worth a mint. They're obviously never going to get

0:19:31.960 --> 0:19:34.800
<v Speaker 3>rid of that famous mansion, but it was so weird

0:19:34.840 --> 0:19:37.160
<v Speaker 3>because it feels like that house in the cartoon movie

0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:39.760
<v Speaker 3>up where it's just sitting in the middle of a

0:19:39.920 --> 0:19:40.639
<v Speaker 3>huge city.

0:19:41.280 --> 0:19:44.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, it's like I hear it's like that in

0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:49.199
<v Speaker 1>like Greece or Italy. I've not been to those places

0:19:49.200 --> 0:19:52.560
<v Speaker 1>where you have these really like, you know, this Winchester

0:19:52.600 --> 0:19:54.520
<v Speaker 1>house isn't that old in comparison, but you have some

0:19:54.600 --> 0:19:58.360
<v Speaker 1>ancient ruins in Greece. It's like, isn't that the old

0:19:58.440 --> 0:20:01.879
<v Speaker 1>joke about the pyramids in the Middle East? There across

0:20:01.920 --> 0:20:03.560
<v Speaker 1>the way there's like a McDonald's or something. You know,

0:20:03.560 --> 0:20:07.280
<v Speaker 1>it's like, yeah, it's just ridiculous. Anyway, what else did

0:20:07.280 --> 0:20:07.439
<v Speaker 1>I want?

0:20:07.520 --> 0:20:09.679
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, there's a Chipotle now across the street from.

0:20:09.520 --> 0:20:13.320
<v Speaker 1>The exactly I think there is, you know there is

0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:19.400
<v Speaker 1>there is actually, yeah, we stopped there to get some Anyway,

0:20:20.040 --> 0:20:24.320
<v Speaker 1>on the way back, we we high tailed it through California,

0:20:24.359 --> 0:20:29.120
<v Speaker 1>went down through the bread Basket, the flatulent zone of California.

0:20:30.440 --> 0:20:33.960
<v Speaker 1>And here's another deja vu situation. So when I was

0:20:34.040 --> 0:20:37.680
<v Speaker 1>driving the wedding uber one of my aunts, we drove

0:20:37.720 --> 0:20:41.440
<v Speaker 1>back on on Saturday, and one of my aunts is like, hey,

0:20:42.960 --> 0:20:45.560
<v Speaker 1>you we're gonna leave early because there's a big storm

0:20:45.600 --> 0:20:49.040
<v Speaker 1>coming into California and they might might close the grapevine

0:20:49.400 --> 0:20:53.760
<v Speaker 1>because of snow. So I recall her telling me this

0:20:53.840 --> 0:20:55.840
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, I pass it on to the

0:20:56.080 --> 0:20:57.439
<v Speaker 1>to the wife. I said, you know, it looks like

0:20:57.440 --> 0:21:00.440
<v Speaker 1>there's gonna be some snow in the grapevine and could

0:21:00.440 --> 0:21:03.920
<v Speaker 1>be problem for us. And she said, no, no, now,

0:21:03.960 --> 0:21:06.320
<v Speaker 1>there's gonna be no snow. You had nothing to worry about.

0:21:06.320 --> 0:21:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Everything'll be fine. She looked at the forecast light rain.

0:21:10.240 --> 0:21:13.159
<v Speaker 1>So we left kind of late in the day. We

0:21:13.200 --> 0:21:16.040
<v Speaker 1>had to transport some of the wedding flowers to get saved.

0:21:16.040 --> 0:21:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know you could do this, Danny, but wedding flowers,

0:21:18.280 --> 0:21:21.520
<v Speaker 1>there's a way you can save them forever. I don't

0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:22.400
<v Speaker 1>know what they put on them.

0:21:22.520 --> 0:21:25.439
<v Speaker 3>They dry them out with They spray some stuff on

0:21:25.480 --> 0:21:26.200
<v Speaker 3>them and dry them.

0:21:26.119 --> 0:21:28.600
<v Speaker 1>Out, something like that. Yeah, So we had to take

0:21:28.720 --> 0:21:30.720
<v Speaker 1>some of the bouquet, like the bouquet and some of

0:21:30.720 --> 0:21:32.960
<v Speaker 1>the other stuff. Fine, so we had to wait for that.

0:21:33.760 --> 0:21:36.840
<v Speaker 1>So we take off. I demand. My one demand was

0:21:36.880 --> 0:21:37.840
<v Speaker 1>we stop in Gilroy.

0:21:38.000 --> 0:21:40.200
<v Speaker 3>It's the same poison your wife puts in your food later,

0:21:40.240 --> 0:21:40.480
<v Speaker 3>by the.

0:21:40.440 --> 0:21:45.160
<v Speaker 1>Way, So we stopped in Gilroy. I rolled down the windows,

0:21:45.200 --> 0:21:49.119
<v Speaker 1>smelled the garlic. Oh so good, So amazing. Stopped at

0:21:49.160 --> 0:21:52.240
<v Speaker 1>the garlic I got a garlic burger with the roasted

0:21:52.280 --> 0:21:55.520
<v Speaker 1>garlic on top, and then went to the garlic. We

0:21:55.560 --> 0:21:58.920
<v Speaker 1>went over to the garlic store. They have garlic stores,

0:21:59.119 --> 0:22:02.240
<v Speaker 1>and then we bought some garlic products that were overpriced tremendously,

0:22:02.600 --> 0:22:04.880
<v Speaker 1>and but who cares, because you're in Gilroy, so.

0:22:04.840 --> 0:22:05.199
<v Speaker 3>You do it.

0:22:05.440 --> 0:22:07.000
<v Speaker 1>And then we got back on the road. We're driving

0:22:07.040 --> 0:22:09.359
<v Speaker 1>and we didn't stop as many times on the way back.

0:22:10.240 --> 0:22:12.240
<v Speaker 1>We did stop. And I wonder if you know what

0:22:12.280 --> 0:22:13.679
<v Speaker 1>this I forget the name of the place. Is this

0:22:13.760 --> 0:22:17.600
<v Speaker 1>touristy trap outside Gilroy that has like a little train

0:22:17.840 --> 0:22:24.040
<v Speaker 1>and they sell like fruits and oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:22:24.080 --> 0:22:25.159
<v Speaker 1>I'd never been there before.

0:22:25.320 --> 0:22:26.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah that's a cool spot.

0:22:26.880 --> 0:22:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's got a lot going on. So we stopped there.

0:22:30.600 --> 0:22:34.840
<v Speaker 1>Then we proceeded to stop. Out of leaving Gilroy, we

0:22:34.880 --> 0:22:38.920
<v Speaker 1>proceeded to stop. There's all these fruit stands, twenty avocados

0:22:38.920 --> 0:22:44.399
<v Speaker 1>for a dollar. You like avocados, My wife's I like avocado.

0:22:44.840 --> 0:22:47.359
<v Speaker 1>So we stop and then those little baby avocados, but

0:22:47.440 --> 0:22:50.320
<v Speaker 1>we got them, like we got we got those little

0:22:50.359 --> 0:22:54.840
<v Speaker 1>baby avocados. I like goodles of course that they have

0:22:54.960 --> 0:22:56.560
<v Speaker 1>the fresh and then they tried to upsell you, well,

0:22:56.600 --> 0:22:59.080
<v Speaker 1>what about strawberries, you know, strawberries afresh, and you know

0:22:59.080 --> 0:23:00.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't need any strawberry, but no, no, you should

0:23:00.800 --> 0:23:03.560
<v Speaker 1>get some stoubery and try up sell you. Of course,

0:23:03.600 --> 0:23:06.119
<v Speaker 1>we made the mistake. The first stand we saw was

0:23:06.119 --> 0:23:09.760
<v Speaker 1>twenty avocados for a dollar, and then we didn't stop

0:23:09.800 --> 0:23:12.520
<v Speaker 1>at that one. So then there was another stand that

0:23:12.640 --> 0:23:15.359
<v Speaker 1>said ten avocados for a dollar. So so we said we

0:23:15.400 --> 0:23:17.000
<v Speaker 1>better stop at that one because we probably won't see

0:23:17.040 --> 0:23:18.800
<v Speaker 1>another one, and that's the last chance.

0:23:19.040 --> 0:23:22.240
<v Speaker 3>It's like when the gas price at gas station slowly

0:23:22.320 --> 0:23:23.920
<v Speaker 3>starts increasing as you drive.

0:23:24.280 --> 0:23:26.439
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so we stopped and we got the ten avocados

0:23:26.440 --> 0:23:28.800
<v Speaker 1>for a dollar, and then we kept driving, and then

0:23:28.800 --> 0:23:31.400
<v Speaker 1>the next stand was twenty avocados for a dollar. We're like, oh,

0:23:31.560 --> 0:23:35.480
<v Speaker 1>fuck you, oh man, And so that was a that

0:23:35.520 --> 0:23:39.240
<v Speaker 1>was a problem. But we we stopped a couple times.

0:23:39.240 --> 0:23:41.040
<v Speaker 1>Then we got back and we're driving and it was

0:23:41.080 --> 0:23:45.280
<v Speaker 1>a light rain. It was a light rain, and the

0:23:45.320 --> 0:23:49.800
<v Speaker 1>whole time I'm drinking, I'm drinking either water or refresher.

0:23:49.880 --> 0:23:52.000
<v Speaker 1>My wife had gotten me from Starbucks for the road

0:23:52.000 --> 0:23:56.399
<v Speaker 1>trip back, so I'm consistently drinking, and then so of

0:23:56.440 --> 0:23:57.800
<v Speaker 1>course I had to go to the bathroom. So we

0:23:57.800 --> 0:23:59.280
<v Speaker 1>had to stop to go to the bathroom, and then

0:23:59.640 --> 0:24:04.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm drinking some more water. Whatever. We get to the grapevine.

0:24:05.520 --> 0:24:08.800
<v Speaker 1>It's light rain, you know, light rain. Nothing, it's open.

0:24:09.040 --> 0:24:09.560
<v Speaker 3>We made it.

0:24:09.720 --> 0:24:14.360
<v Speaker 1>We made it up. We get into the medium part

0:24:14.359 --> 0:24:20.399
<v Speaker 1>of the grape vine and it starts snowing. Oh my gosh.

0:24:20.480 --> 0:24:23.240
<v Speaker 1>We're like, oh crap. And of course, I, of course

0:24:23.400 --> 0:24:25.000
<v Speaker 1>at that point, Danny, I turned to my wife and

0:24:25.040 --> 0:24:26.120
<v Speaker 1>I did the old I told.

0:24:25.920 --> 0:24:29.000
<v Speaker 3>You, Yeah, I told you. I bet that went overwhell oh.

0:24:29.119 --> 0:24:32.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. This is the second time in a month this

0:24:32.840 --> 0:24:36.680
<v Speaker 1>has happened. We were leaving Vegas and it started snowing.

0:24:37.119 --> 0:24:39.919
<v Speaker 1>Going over the hill in the California Death Valley are

0:24:39.960 --> 0:24:43.560
<v Speaker 1>it started snowing, but that was a light dusting. This

0:24:43.800 --> 0:24:48.680
<v Speaker 1>was full on snow. This was full Monty snow. And

0:24:48.720 --> 0:24:55.440
<v Speaker 1>it snowed for about thirty minutes of Maybe I'm exaggerating.

0:24:55.480 --> 0:24:57.440
<v Speaker 1>It seemed like it was thirty minutes of the drive,

0:24:57.520 --> 0:25:00.520
<v Speaker 1>but it was at least fifteen minutes, maybe thirty. As

0:25:00.560 --> 0:25:02.560
<v Speaker 1>we're going through the Grapevine, it goes up to four

0:25:02.600 --> 0:25:04.439
<v Speaker 1>thousand the elevation I think at the highest is like

0:25:04.480 --> 0:25:07.399
<v Speaker 1>four thousand feet or something like that in the Grapevine

0:25:08.040 --> 0:25:11.639
<v Speaker 1>and I'm driving, people are freaking out. Half the people

0:25:11.640 --> 0:25:14.800
<v Speaker 1>are driving slow. Other other people are like they're they're

0:25:14.880 --> 0:25:17.880
<v Speaker 1>driving too fast. The trucks don't really know what to do.

0:25:18.520 --> 0:25:21.520
<v Speaker 1>It's a big it's a big ship show. And uh

0:25:21.960 --> 0:25:24.600
<v Speaker 1>and then we get through the snow. They fortunately they

0:25:24.680 --> 0:25:26.440
<v Speaker 1>again they didn't close the Grapevine. I think they closed

0:25:26.440 --> 0:25:30.840
<v Speaker 1>the other side actually coming from La up towards Bakersfield.

0:25:31.520 --> 0:25:34.480
<v Speaker 1>But our side was fine. But then I had to

0:25:34.480 --> 0:25:37.960
<v Speaker 1>go to the bathroom again because I've been drinking, so

0:25:38.680 --> 0:25:42.359
<v Speaker 1>I I I had to pull over. I'm you know,

0:25:42.400 --> 0:25:44.320
<v Speaker 1>I had to do what bears do in the forest,

0:25:44.320 --> 0:25:47.520
<v Speaker 1>the Angela's forest, Danny. I had to hit the star

0:25:48.520 --> 0:25:51.639
<v Speaker 1>got off and yeah, yeah, what's that is? That is

0:25:51.680 --> 0:25:57.119
<v Speaker 1>that you go to a basket? Yeah, which was fine

0:25:57.280 --> 0:26:00.320
<v Speaker 1>except again and yet it's a little one big coming

0:26:00.359 --> 0:26:02.520
<v Speaker 1>because my mother in law was with us on the

0:26:02.520 --> 0:26:05.320
<v Speaker 1>way back, so as I, I gotta stop, and you know,

0:26:05.600 --> 0:26:08.800
<v Speaker 1>she understood. So I tried to find a little like

0:26:08.800 --> 0:26:11.479
<v Speaker 1>like a tree that I kind of hide behind, you know,

0:26:11.680 --> 0:26:12.640
<v Speaker 1>But it was night time.

0:26:12.760 --> 0:26:14.240
<v Speaker 3>I thought you were gonna say, so you felt like

0:26:14.240 --> 0:26:15.439
<v Speaker 3>you were watering something?

0:26:15.880 --> 0:26:18.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was. It was nighttime. So I went to

0:26:18.920 --> 0:26:21.720
<v Speaker 1>the bathroom. But the problem I had when I go

0:26:21.800 --> 0:26:25.719
<v Speaker 1>to the bathroom out in the great outdoors is I'm

0:26:25.720 --> 0:26:28.760
<v Speaker 1>always in a rush. Number one. I want to get

0:26:28.760 --> 0:26:30.480
<v Speaker 1>it over with as quick as possible, so I don't

0:26:30.600 --> 0:26:33.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't you know what, You settle into the urinald

0:26:33.280 --> 0:26:36.360
<v Speaker 1>Danny and just everything gets out. But I almost never

0:26:36.480 --> 0:26:38.440
<v Speaker 1>let it all get out because I'm gonna hurry and

0:26:38.480 --> 0:26:40.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm worried, Oh, you're not supposed to be doing this

0:26:40.080 --> 0:26:42.240
<v Speaker 1>and all that. So I went to the bathroom, got

0:26:42.240 --> 0:26:45.679
<v Speaker 1>back in the car, immediately start drinking water again, right,

0:26:45.720 --> 0:26:49.320
<v Speaker 1>immediately start drinking the water again. So we're driving, we're driving,

0:26:49.320 --> 0:26:54.520
<v Speaker 1>we're driving. We get to where do we get to somewhere?

0:26:55.480 --> 0:27:00.000
<v Speaker 1>What's the town north of Burbank off the five oh

0:27:00.119 --> 0:27:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Lend or something like that. Yeah, yeah, I think we're

0:27:02.520 --> 0:27:05.199
<v Speaker 1>around Sunland. So we we get to there, and I'm like,

0:27:05.240 --> 0:27:06.920
<v Speaker 1>I go to the bathroom again. You know, I didn't

0:27:07.240 --> 0:27:10.560
<v Speaker 1>finish everything I needed to get out. So my wife's

0:27:10.560 --> 0:27:12.000
<v Speaker 1>like looking on her phone, She's like, all right, there's

0:27:12.000 --> 0:27:16.479
<v Speaker 1>a Starbucks says I, all right, and so I don't might.

0:27:16.520 --> 0:27:18.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember what town it was in. It might

0:27:18.400 --> 0:27:19.520
<v Speaker 1>have been it was somewhere around there.

0:27:19.600 --> 0:27:20.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's the home of Roberto.

0:27:21.800 --> 0:27:25.280
<v Speaker 1>So stopped at the Starbucks. Get out of the car.

0:27:26.280 --> 0:27:29.239
<v Speaker 1>Go this is you know, eight o'clock at night. Go

0:27:29.320 --> 0:27:33.120
<v Speaker 1>to the open the Starbucks. The inside's closed. You can

0:27:33.160 --> 0:27:35.600
<v Speaker 1>only do the drive through. Well, I need to take

0:27:35.600 --> 0:27:38.280
<v Speaker 1>a whiz, you know. And I wait, I'm like right

0:27:38.480 --> 0:27:41.240

0:27:41.280 --> 0:27:43.840
<v Speaker 1>get back in the car. I have to go right now.

0:27:46.000 --> 0:27:48.280
<v Speaker 3>That's one of the worst ceilings. What do you think

0:27:48.280 --> 0:27:51.040
<v Speaker 3>I did? Then peted into a cup.

0:27:52.200 --> 0:27:57.240
<v Speaker 1>No, I dumpster? No, yeah, the dumpster. No I did.

0:27:57.359 --> 0:27:59.720
<v Speaker 1>I did the dumpster. Yeah. I had to do it.

0:28:00.480 --> 0:28:02.000
<v Speaker 1>I had to do it. It was either that or

0:28:02.000 --> 0:28:05.280
<v Speaker 1>my pants, you know, I had to do it. So yeah,

0:28:05.359 --> 0:28:08.639
<v Speaker 1>right there. Anyway, So that back and we went to

0:28:08.840 --> 0:28:11.400
<v Speaker 1>On the way back, we stopped at the Great l Coyote.

0:28:11.440 --> 0:28:13.359
<v Speaker 1>And this is where the story is gonna end. So

0:28:13.359 --> 0:28:16.800
<v Speaker 1>we stopped at El Kyote, great Mexican restaurant in Beverly

0:28:16.880 --> 0:28:18.239
<v Speaker 1>in LA. Used to eat there all the time, used

0:28:18.240 --> 0:28:20.120
<v Speaker 1>to live down the street on Houser down the street

0:28:20.160 --> 0:28:23.720
<v Speaker 1>from there, then Parklebrea, which a big housing complex there.

0:28:23.800 --> 0:28:29.879
<v Speaker 1>So went to L Coyote and for for some reason,

0:28:30.560 --> 0:28:33.719
<v Speaker 1>I randomly on my phone. I was like, looking around,

0:28:34.960 --> 0:28:37.800
<v Speaker 1>I have a tracking thing where with my brothers. I

0:28:37.800 --> 0:28:39.680
<v Speaker 1>have brother in Wisconsin, brother in New York, and I

0:28:39.720 --> 0:28:41.960
<v Speaker 1>can they can keep track of me, and I can

0:28:42.000 --> 0:28:43.800
<v Speaker 1>keep track of them, and in case we ever die,

0:28:43.920 --> 0:28:47.000
<v Speaker 1>they can find us. And so I at least find

0:28:47.000 --> 0:28:49.000
<v Speaker 1>our phones. And so I looked at my phone. I

0:28:49.000 --> 0:28:51.480
<v Speaker 1>was like, well, holy crap. My older brother, the one

0:28:51.480 --> 0:28:56.040
<v Speaker 1>from New York, is in LA and he's like literally

0:28:56.160 --> 0:29:01.239
<v Speaker 1>across the street from the restaurant. I'm at, what are

0:29:01.240 --> 0:29:06.160
<v Speaker 1>the odds? What are the odds? And so I start text.

0:29:06.200 --> 0:29:09.440
<v Speaker 1>I called him. He didn't answer his phone. I text

0:29:09.480 --> 0:29:14.960
<v Speaker 1>him like, hey, I need I need to see I

0:29:15.000 --> 0:29:15.560
<v Speaker 1>think you're here.

0:29:15.640 --> 0:29:15.840
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:29:16.600 --> 0:29:19.680
<v Speaker 1>He didn't write stalker. Yeah, he didn't write back. So

0:29:19.760 --> 0:29:22.080
<v Speaker 1>then I text my sister in law, his wife, and

0:29:22.120 --> 0:29:25.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, hey, we're leaving the restaurant here, but it

0:29:25.240 --> 0:29:27.680
<v Speaker 1>looks like you're like literally right across the street. I

0:29:27.840 --> 0:29:28.960
<v Speaker 1>would like to see say.

0:29:28.760 --> 0:29:31.040
<v Speaker 3>Hello before leaving in your car right now?

0:29:31.680 --> 0:29:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? And uh and then they finally saw it. And

0:29:34.480 --> 0:29:37.280
<v Speaker 1>then my brother actually Jay walked across the street to

0:29:37.320 --> 0:29:40.360
<v Speaker 1>come say hello to us at the at the restaurant

0:29:40.360 --> 0:29:43.320
<v Speaker 1>we were at, and his father in law, who's a

0:29:43.480 --> 0:29:49.360
<v Speaker 1>very very successful, well known doctor, was it was his

0:29:49.440 --> 0:29:52.000
<v Speaker 1>birthday and he was having a big birthday dinner at

0:29:52.000 --> 0:29:54.040
<v Speaker 1>the rest There's an Italian restaurant across the street. Its

0:29:54.040 --> 0:29:56.720
<v Speaker 1>apparently really good. They never been there, but it's supposed

0:29:56.720 --> 0:29:58.200
<v Speaker 1>to be really good, and so they were having a

0:29:58.200 --> 0:30:01.480
<v Speaker 1>big dinner there at the restaurant. So that was cool.

0:30:01.520 --> 0:30:02.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it was a very odd It was like

0:30:02.800 --> 0:30:05.320
<v Speaker 1>brotherly love right in the middle. I did not have

0:30:05.480 --> 0:30:08.000
<v Speaker 1>that on my Bingo card that I would because we

0:30:08.040 --> 0:30:10.280
<v Speaker 1>could have gone to any restaurant. We were debating which

0:30:10.320 --> 0:30:11.760
<v Speaker 1>restaurant to go to. It wasn't like we went to

0:30:11.760 --> 0:30:13.560
<v Speaker 1>El Coyote, this place, which I liked, but we were

0:30:13.600 --> 0:30:17.040
<v Speaker 1>debating go to Fat sALS or some other restaurant which

0:30:17.080 --> 0:30:18.680
<v Speaker 1>we normally normally go to.

0:30:18.880 --> 0:30:22.000
<v Speaker 3>So, yeah, it's really crazy when things like that happened.

0:30:22.800 --> 0:30:24.560
<v Speaker 1>I think they call called serendipity.

0:30:24.880 --> 0:30:26.440
<v Speaker 3>Serendipitous for sure.

0:30:26.720 --> 0:30:28.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, all right, I think we'll get out on that.

0:30:28.480 --> 0:30:31.320
<v Speaker 1>Anything else, Danny, you want to commode Saturday.

0:30:31.520 --> 0:30:36.400
<v Speaker 3>Well, today, after I produced this fine podcast, my wife

0:30:36.440 --> 0:30:40.600
<v Speaker 3>is dragging me to Disneyland. We had one ticket that's

0:30:40.680 --> 0:30:43.360
<v Speaker 3>just been sitting there as credit cause a few months

0:30:43.400 --> 0:30:45.920
<v Speaker 3>back we bought a ticket for her mom speaking of

0:30:45.960 --> 0:30:48.640
<v Speaker 3>in laws, and her mom was sick and couldn't join

0:30:48.720 --> 0:30:51.240
<v Speaker 3>us that day. The credit's just been sitting there, So

0:30:51.320 --> 0:30:53.640
<v Speaker 3>for months she's been saying, all we have to do

0:30:53.720 --> 0:30:57.000
<v Speaker 3>is buy one ticket because we already have one, So

0:30:57.120 --> 0:30:59.880
<v Speaker 3>we are cashing that in today. Say goodbye to the

0:31:00.040 --> 0:31:01.880
