Speaker 1: Kaboom. If you thought four hours a day, minutes a

2
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: week was enough, I think again. He's the last remnants

3
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: of the old Republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He

00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: treats crackheads in the ghetto Cutter the same as the

Speaker 1: rich pill poppers in the penthouse. The Clearinghouse of Hot

Speaker 1: and Danny G Radio Because four hours a night, five

10
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,559
Speaker 1: days a week not enough on the overnight show, and

11
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: we are back at it again, Danny G. And normally

12
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 1: we'd come in here and we watch poetic about what

13
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: an amazing time we had at the Mallard meet and

14
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: read last night. But we haven't actually had the mall

15
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: Their meet and greet as we are doing this, But

16
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: I anticipate that we do the full recap Danny next weekend.

17
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 1: It will be an amazing, life changing experience that we

18
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,119
Speaker 1: will have many stories to tell about meeting so many

19
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: different people. I'm glad you're gonna be able to make it, Danny.

20
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 1: It's going to be an amazing event. Yeah, it's the

21
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: magic of podcasting. Heard this question more than once. When

22
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: do you and Ben record that? What time do you

23
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: do it? And the answer is it varies from week

24
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: to week, but the one common denominator early early in

25
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: the morning. Yes, most people are fast asleep. Sometimes it's

26
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 1: right after the radio show. Sometimes it's in the afternoon.

27
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: Occasionally at very odd times. A lot of the Friday

28
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: podcast that we do interviews and WHATNOTU conversations. Those happen

29
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 1: at any time because we are at the mercy of

30
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: whoever we're having on and so we have to coordinate

31
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: the schedules and make that work. And oftentimes when these

32
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: people are available, Uh, it's not the most convenient time.

33
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: But the cool thing is having the studio set up here,

34
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: I can record it anytime at a moment's notice. I

35
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 1: can stroll down the hall, turn on the equipment, and

36
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: good to go. So I'm happy about that, and for me,

37
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 1: it kind of is a live show. This is something

38
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: the p Ones would love to know. My alarm is

39
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: set on Saturday and Sunday early in the morning, I

40
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: get up, I do the post production, I loaded to

41
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: the platform for I Heart and it shoots out. So

42
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: for me a two part thing. We do it now

43
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: and then I do it then. So it kind of

44
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: is a live show for me. It's like a boomerang,

45
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: it comes back. It really is. Yeah, I'm like we

46
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: talked about that yesterday. Oh ship. So on this podcast

47
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 1: we have Crossing the Tease, Dotting the Eyes, the Midnight Marauder,

48
00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: Breaking Point, and l r C. That's a lot of content.

49
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: Plus we have Backscratcher. Assuming we have time to get

50
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: to all this. We'll make it snappy. Yeah, we'll make

51
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: it snappy exactly. All right. So some some news here

52
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: on this the Saturday podcast, The Life of Mallard, Life

53
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 1: of Danny g some career news to talk about here.

54
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: As you might know, Danny, if you're mentioning on a podcast,

55
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 1: it's not gonna be bad news, right, It's not gonna

56
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: be bad news. It's gonna be good news. And it

57
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: is good news. I am happy to report. And I

58
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: mentioned this briefly on social media the other day on Thursday.

59
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: But over the last month I have given hints on

60
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: the radio show that I have had meetings with management

61
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: at Fox Sports Radio. I had to go over to

62
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: the the big bosses in Burbank, bur bank and meet

63
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: with them, and we've had a few phone meetings. And

64
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: the reason we were doing that is because my contract

65
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: with I Heart and Fox Sports Radio had run out

66
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: and we were trying to figure out whether or not

67
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: we could work out another agreement to continue doing the

68
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: show and all that, and so for a while, I

69
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: don't want to say how long, Danny, but I did

70
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: not have a contract. I was on a day to

71
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: day situation, which meant I was a free agent in

72
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 1: many ways. I could go somewhere else if somebody wanted

73
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: to pay me a lot of money. And you gambled

74
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: on yourself, what if you had broke your vocal cords.

75
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: I know, I know, I know it wasn't intentional. I

76
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,920
Speaker 1: I am the worst at this. Like I don't even

77
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 1: think about my contract most of the time because I

78
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: get depressed when I think about it, and so then

79
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 1: when it runs out, I'm like, wait a minute, and

80
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: then I'm I'm scrambling, phone calls are made and all

81
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 1: that stuff. So the deal I had, which was for

82
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 1: multiple years, ran out. But I am happy to report

83
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: I want to thank Don Martin, Scott Shapiro and all

84
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 1: the people do Elie Talbot from the premier networks at

85
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: I Heart and everyone else that people I don't even

86
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 1: know who they are, Danny in San Antonio, who all

87
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: gave the seal of approval. So I was able to

88
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 1: work out a new contract, a multi year contract extension.

89
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 1: So I am very happy that we can continue this.

90
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: I've crossed the tease, I've dotted the eyes and which

91
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 1: is really a lie, that's a data reference, Danny. I

92
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: signed the contract like I signed my real estate papers. Yes,

93
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:38,359
Speaker 1: DOCU signed, I builed out the DOCU signed, and my

94
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 1: signature is much better on DOCU signed than it really

95
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 1: is in person. There's a lot of legal ease in

96
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: these things, if you've ever gotten a contract, whatever it is,

97
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: where it's a broadcasting or not. And so I had

98
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 1: to read through it. There was actually some things I

99
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 1: needed to get changed. There are a few surprises that

100
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: we will have based on this new deal. I can't

101
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,840
Speaker 1: get into all of that right now, but there'll be

102
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 1: more content. I can't talk about that, Danny, as as always,

103
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 1: the company wants more content. I don't know how much

104
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 1: more content I can provide based on my current schedule,

105
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 1: and I do have to somewhat keep my marriage going.

106
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 1: Otherwise that will be I'll have to be like Tom

107
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,799
Speaker 1: Brady and go to the Bahamas on vacation during training camp.

108
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 1: But anyway, listen, So I'm happy about that. I don't

109
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: usually talk about that stuff, but I wanted to pass

110
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 1: that on. Can you imagine, Ben, if you missed the

111
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 1: first eleven days of football season? Oh god, no, starting September.

112
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: I don't know what is it, September six. September eleven

113
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: is the first Sunday, so a few days before that,

114
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 1: that first Tursday, but that week. But yeah, yeah, that

115
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,239
Speaker 1: that's that's stuff where you get court martialed. In sports rading,

116
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 1: you get court martial You can't miss you can you

117
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 1: cannot miss the first part of the football season. Although

118
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: even that I feel like that's changed. There used to

119
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: be a hard line and rule. Danny, and you've been

120
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: at the company a long time. You take your vacation,

121
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: but you don't do it during football season unless it's

122
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 1: Christmas to New Year's that's the only acceptable time to

123
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: take vacation. But this is the time we make our money,

124
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 1: This is the time we pay our bills, This is

125
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: the time we have more listeners than any other time

126
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: of the year. In sports radio, NFL season, the National

127
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: Sports Operation, and so you gotta be there. You gotta

128
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: be there during football seam. There are people that say

129
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: screw it and take vacation in I'm not one of

130
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: them anyway. So that's the that's the news. But we

131
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 1: move on from that. Can you say how many years

132
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: or just keep it generic multi year? I'm just wondering

133
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: how many years more we're gonna be doing this podcast

134
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: that that depends on how many people download the podcast.

135
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: We would love for this podcast to uh be two

136
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: percent of what Joe Rogan does. We would love that.

137
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: Let's go. But the way you know this is, I'm

138
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: not gonna lie these contracts. It is multi year. There

139
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: are some loops out, there's some outs and things in

140
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: the contract, so you know, it's not guaranteed that's gonna

141
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 1: be X number of years. But assuming the show continues

142
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: to do well. They're very happy with the Overnight show.

143
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:16,239
Speaker 1: It's done tremendously well and the podcast with You Danny

144
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 1: has been great, So they're very happy about that. Um,

145
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 1: did they want to pay me like Calhart? No, they're

146
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: not that happy, but but they're happy enough to keep me,

147
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: and I'm happy enough. The company has been very good

148
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: to me and pretty much my entire adult life. I

149
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: can't believe it. Other than a few radio stops early on,

150
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 1: I have worked for Fox Sports Radio. It is insane.

151
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: I'm I'm amazed that I've been. I was convinced when

152
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: I got into radio, I was gonna work at like

153
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 1: twenty five different radio stations, and I was gonna bounce

154
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: all over the place. And here I am. I I

155
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,719
Speaker 1: got hired at Fox Sports Radio in the year two thousand,

156
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 1: end of two thousand and uh, and here we are.

157
00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: It was early two thousand one I kind of really

158
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 1: got going, but it was the end of two thousand

159
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,079
Speaker 1: they hired me, and here we are. Then you're the

160
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:08,199
Speaker 1: Tim Duncan of Fox Sports Radio. No, I'm the Donna's Haslam.

161
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:14,199
Speaker 1: I'm useless around a long time anyway. But I want

162
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 1: to thank you the listener, because with it, seriously, I mean,

163
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: no one's listening. They, as our boss likes to say,

164
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 1: Don Martin, Uh, you know, one of the boss's statements

165
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: is he doesn't get rid of anybody. The audience gets

166
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 1: rid of people. When people stop listening and they stopped

167
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: being part of the show. That's when you lose these jobs.

168
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 1: And so I've been very very blessed and very lucky

169
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 1: that we have a group of crazy people that love

170
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: overnight radio and there with me all night and listen

171
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 1: to the podcast. Dude, that's that's the cool thing, Danny's

172
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 1: We've talked about doing this for so long. Like working overnights,

173
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: most people graduate to a day shift. They don't do

174
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 1: anything that long. Maybe they're in their twenties or early thirties,

175
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 1: but then they get married, they get all grown up,

176
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: they have families, and they don't do the overnight show,

177
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: do the overnight shift, and so but a lot of

178
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: them have listened to the podcast, and so that's been cool.

179
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,680
Speaker 1: And yeah, and bed, not to make you feel aged,

180
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: but a lot of us grew up with your voice,

181
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: Like that's not in a bad way. You started as

182
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 1: a kid, so you're still young enough to do this

183
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: the right way. But what I mean is even the

184
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: rare times you take days off, you can hear a

185
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: podcast and still hear what you're doing. And I think

186
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 1: that that's really the power of how new media has

187
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 1: changed the landscape for all of us. Yeah, I recall

188
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: when I was working local radio in l A our

189
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 1: boss came in and said, hey, I have this idea

190
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: because we got covered up a lot by sporting events.

191
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: He says, when the games are going on, why don't

192
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 1: we just have you do a show on the internet.

193
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: And you would have thought this guy was speaking Russian.

194
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: You know, it's like, what are you a comrade? But

195
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,959
Speaker 1: but here we are, all these years later, and it's

196
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: just standard operating procedure. It's just what you do, and

197
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: it's it's great. So and we'll turn the page on

198
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,559
Speaker 1: that and I look forward to many many more podcasts

199
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 1: and shows and fun and good times and crazy callers

200
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 1: and all of that. But we have the midnight Marauder

201
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: Danny g to get to at this point. Yeah, well,

202
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 1: that kind of falls right in line with your first topic. There.

203
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 1: There is a COVID nineteen situation. It seems like every

204
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 1: producer at our network has come down with COVID nineteen.

205
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 1: And it's weird because the first two go arounds our

206
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 1: country had with it, we were pretty lucky at the network. Yeah.

207
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,440
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is with the past few months.

208
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: Thank god, knock on fakewood here. I haven't come down

209
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 1: with it. I haven't had any symptoms. And even though

210
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: I've been pulling these crazy hours, I've been one of

211
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 1: the guys filling in for the people who get COVID

212
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: or go on vacation. So Coop was on vacation. I

213
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 1: got to do your radio show, which was a lot

214
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 1: of fun. Monday into Tuesday. Well, you witnessed one of

215
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: the greatest procities in overnight radio that Eddie Garcia conspired

216
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,199
Speaker 1: with Anthony and Anaheim to throw a game show. It's embarrassed.

217
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 1: Then it looked like you were gonna throw your microphone

218
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 1: in the studio. It was like old times. I could

219
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: see you through the glass. If you would have had

220
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,199
Speaker 1: a voodoo doll of Eddie in there with you, it

221
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 1: would have been crumpled and crunched. After that segment, Oh listen,

222
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: and and Danny full disclosure, I mean we we take

223
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 1: these game shows very seriously. Oh yeah, you keep record.

224
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: We take pride in this. And for Eddie to step

225
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 1: in there and conspire with Justin and Cincinnati, and Justin

226
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: sent out the dog whistle. Then Anthony and Anaheim played

227
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 1: along there and so and you know Eddie's and he's, oh,

228
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: I would never do something. It calls me a cheater.

229
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: So when he says that, and I'm looking at what's

230
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 1: going on, and Anthony confirmed it, then I'm like, okay,

231
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,439
Speaker 1: you know, all right, come on your prediction right now, Ben,

232
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 1: Uh is kind of in the future, but we gotta

233
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: look in the past. Do you think last night Anthony

234
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: and Anaheim came up to you and made up with

235
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: you and apologized. I will, I will bet you that

236
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 1: there was a mia copa that Anthony and Anaim was

237
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: a good guy. I know Anthony. I've watched him, you know,

238
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 1: over the as a listener. He's come in studio a

239
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 1: few times over the years, and I knew him before

240
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 1: he got married and all that. Now he's got kids

241
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 1: and so all that, I say, he's a mench. I say,

242
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: Anthony and Anaheim is a mench. We'll say, bad job

243
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 1: by me, Ben, Let's shake it out by gones, be

244
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: by gones, and we're good. That's what I predicted, because

245
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: I bust your balls a lot, Ben. But I'll say

246
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: this about that game that night, just a few nights back,

247
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 1: the Raiders current tight end. How are you gonna say,

248
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: Khalil Mack? And then you gave the clue. What was it? Oh?

249
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: It was a snake. It was Kenny Stabler. Oh yeah,

250
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 1: he said, ja yeah, come on. Teams I liked, and

251
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 1: players I liked. It was my category. How the hell's

252
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: a Bronco gonna be in my category? So I know

253
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 1: what they're doing, like the whole bit with Justin and

254
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,319
Speaker 1: Anthony and whoever is next. I think about a band,

255
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: the Regulars and playing the game shows. But the bid

256
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: is the way they do it is they just they

257
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: slowed down. Take that, they slow walk. They pull a

258
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: page from your book. But but Anthony and Anaheim I

259
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 1: did notice here, and I learned this from what Justin did.

260
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: So they they'll get a they'll get them right, but

261
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 1: they'll take a long time to get them right because

262
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: it's a quick game. You gotta go fast. You can't

263
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: win if you take twenty seconds her answer. So I

264
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 1: realized that they would eventually get it right. So what

265
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 1: I did is I jumped to the hundred point question.

266
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 1: But I did it early, and so Anthony actually answered

267
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: the Jackie Slater answer. But he I guarantee you he

268
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 1: would not have one that if he had known it

269
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: was the hundred point question. Well, I can't wait until

270
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 1: next Saturday's podcast, so we could find out what Anthony

271
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 1: actually did at the Meat and Greed, you know, because

272
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 1: of that shift, and it was a lot of fun.

273
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: But I stayed and did the post production afterwards, got

274
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 1: on the road, got home, slept for forty five minutes,

275
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: went to the school, did a whole day there. When

276
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: I and I felt fine, no coffee, I pulled a

277
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: bed mallard. No coffee. I just drank a ton of

278
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 1: cold water. But then at the end of the shift,

279
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 1: when it ended, ben I was like, oh damn, how

280
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 1: am I going to get home? Like I hit a wall?

281
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: That's bad. Yeah, when you get and you're tired, and

282
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: there's nothing you can do, Like you can turn on

283
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 1: the radio, you can roll down the window. I have

284
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: found nothing that will work to keep you awake when

285
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: you're tired. It is to me, and I don't I

286
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: say drunk driving is good, but it's as bad as

287
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 1: drunk driving, you know. To me, it's very And I

288
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 1: think police will say that and experts will say that

289
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 1: when you're really tired driving, it's the same as being

290
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: drunk because you completely go off the road if you

291
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: doze off. And I think we've all done that thing

292
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: where we catch ourselves slipping, and then we slap ourselves

293
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: in the face and like, I'm never gonna do that again.

294
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 1: Ten minutes later, you're doing it again. And I've unfortunately

295
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: done that multiple times. The most famous story I've told

296
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: a few times over the years is on my way

297
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 1: to Vegas, I went by myself. You know, I was

298
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: having kind of a bad time in my career. My

299
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: mom's like, go to Vegas, get out of l a,

300
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: go to Vegas. Gamble. My mom's telling me. So I

301
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 1: left in the middle of the night and I get

302
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 1: to like barstow out in that area, and I I

303
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: fell asleep and I was in the fast land. I

304
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 1: remember being in the fast lane, and I woke up

305
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,800
Speaker 1: in the slow lane. And I don't know how I

306
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 1: didn't hit a truck or hit a wall or anything.

307
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 1: It was the grace of God or whoever. Was just

308
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 1: going to say that, for people who do not believe

309
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 1: in a higher power, you have never had God take

310
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 1: the wheel for them up the car truck. Oh, it's crazy,

311
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:07,159
Speaker 1: man's It is scary when you wake up snoozing and

312
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 1: you realize you're in a weapon, you're in a torpedoing,

313
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 1: whatever it is. It's like, oh man, So I called

314
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 1: it midnight Marauder because it's been a hundred degrees outside.

315
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:27,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna wash the car. There is a drive through

316
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 1: car wash down the street by the freeway here. It's

317
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 1: open twenty four hours. Take it through there like a crackhead.

318
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: Nobody around. It's beautiful. Then I get it home, I

319
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 1: dry it, use the wind X. I'm cleaning the mats inside.

320
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 1: This was like a full blown fancy car wash. And

321
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 1: then my car, which is still parked because I haven't

322
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 1: found the right part yet, clean that and finally put

323
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: the car cover on it. And the security I drove

324
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 1: past me looked at what I was doing, kind of

325
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 1: shook his head and then kept driving. The look of shame,

326
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,399
Speaker 1: the look at shot. Oh yeah, they these hours are

327
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 1: crackhead hours. I mean we are. We are set up

328
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 1: for that lifestyle, clearly. Man. All right, we've got a

329
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: few more things. I want to get the breaking point

330
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 1: thing I actually mentioned. I mentioned this on the show,

331
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 1: and I wanted to get into a little bit more.

332
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 1: We'll spend a few good minutes on this. The last weekend,

333
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: I was lounging his life of Mallarin Danergy. So I'm

334
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: lounging on my laptop. It's Saturday night late, and I'm

335
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 1: doing a little prep work on the weekend. So sometimes

336
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 1: I'll unplug a little bit on Friday night and part

337
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 1: of Saturday, just you know, spend time with the wife

338
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 1: and family members and whatnot. So what I do is

339
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: on Saturday night, I catch up on things I missed,

340
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 1: and I try to catch up on everything, so I'm

341
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: I'm somewhat fluent in what's going on. And and while

342
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 1: this is going on, my wife usually watches TV, and

343
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,360
Speaker 1: so it's it's just background noise. I normally ignore it,

344
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 1: and this weekend, for some reason, it was different, like

345
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 1: I let my guard down. I listened and uh, and

346
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 1: holy cannoli, was it terrible. I don't know what my

347
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,360
Speaker 1: wife was watching. I don't know if it was on Netflix.

348
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 1: I think it was on Netflix, but I don't know

349
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: which streaming service, and I don't know the name of

350
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 1: the show. It was some reality show and it was

351
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: just a bunch of people with weird hair colors, which

352
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: I'm fine with, right, if you're that's your thing. I'm

353
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 1: a traditional I like black, brown, blonde, red, That's usually

354
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,239
Speaker 1: what I go with with the hair. But they had

355
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 1: like neon, pink, green, purple, you know, but you live

356
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 1: and let live. But then they started asking each other

357
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 1: their pronouns. And at that point I let my guard down.

358
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 1: I reached critical mass and boom goes to dynamite boom.

359
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: I I snapped right and and and then I went

360
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: on this rain. I did a monologue to my wife

361
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: about how terrible this is, right, and I She's like,

362
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:08,199
Speaker 1: what do you know? She's like, what do you do?

363
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 1: You never really pay attention on him watching and uh,

364
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: and so you know, I did the whole rand about

365
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 1: you know, a few years ago, these varmints decided to

366
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 1: invent uh their own pronouns and change everything. And it

367
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: was like and I was like, well, no grown ups,

368
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: you know this in my head, this is my you know,

369
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 1: no grown ups. Put a stop to it, right, Amy said,

370
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,959
Speaker 1: you'll come up. But what do you what are you doing? Okay?

371
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, life's hard enough. What do you do?

372
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:35,439
Speaker 1: Who implemented this in corporate handbooks? That's the disease of

373
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 1: social media. It's the matrix of social media. It's a

374
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,920
Speaker 1: very small group of people on social media, but they

375
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: were able to use bots and algorithms to convince very smart,

376
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 1: educated people that this is what society wants. We were

377
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: always told, though, Ben, that it didn't matter. I know,

378
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 1: I know. I don't ask people, and you don't put

379
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 1: it out there, no matter what side you're on or

380
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 1: what you do, that's supposed to be private. So I

381
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,719
Speaker 1: don't understand when that changed into this where we're all

382
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 1: supposed to advertise something on a name tag. Doesn't even

383
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: make sense. It's narcissism, right, It's the same reason we

384
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: live in an age where everyone wants to be a victim.

385
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: You know, you get you get cloud if you're a victim.

386
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: I think, and maybe I'm crazy, I'm completely wrong about this,

387
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,679
Speaker 1: and I'll be proven wrong. I think this is batshit crazy.

388
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 1: That's what I think. Okay, uh, And every time I

389
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: see this, I just I can't wrap my head around it.

390
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 1: I guess it. I'm this. I'm showing my age. I

391
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: was raised where the pronouns were hear him or shear her,

392
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 1: period something. That's all I knew. That's all I've known.

393
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: And I don't really care what you know. If you're

394
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 1: you do whatever you want to get you through life,

395
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: whatever floats your boat. But you don't shove it down

396
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 1: my throat. Okay, you know what I'm saying. I think

397
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,919
Speaker 1: it makes you logical. Okay, so you're not crazy. Then

398
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: it's not just people in our age group that notice this.

399
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: It's not And I realized that we all think when

400
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: when we were young, we all think that was the

401
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: greatest time. And I'm I'm sure that the cycle of

402
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 1: life will just repeat itself. Well it really was, though,

403
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,880
Speaker 1: Ben Well, I agree with you. I'm like you were

404
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,919
Speaker 1: around the same. But I would just say, like thirty

405
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: years from now, when the new generations around and all that,

406
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,679
Speaker 1: they'll be longing for the days where they had the

407
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 1: they pronounced because imagine what's coming down the pike next. Danny,

408
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 1: I mean, she's Louise. I mean man, old man, old man.

409
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,919
Speaker 1: But anyway, that was my my way. So my wife,

410
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,959
Speaker 1: uh we didn't never argue about anything, but she had

411
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 1: to turn the TV off and go to the other room.

412
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,399
Speaker 1: So I was like, was so worked up into a lather.

413
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 1: I just can't, I can't. I'm sorry again. Uh you know,

414
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 1: I'm I'm a purist. I'm gonna he him. She her,

415
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 1: I've known you for a long time. I think We're

416
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 1: good people and we really don't care people do privately.

417
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 1: So for somebody to try to interpret this as oh

418
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 1: my god, sexy store homophobic or that doesn't make any

419
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 1: sense because it doesn't have anything to do with that. No,

420
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: not at all. I noticed I've worked over the years

421
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,119
Speaker 1: of people on radio who were into different things or whatever,

422
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,680
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, yeah, you worked with some freaks.

423
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: I know I did. But but some of those people

424
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,879
Speaker 1: who are you know, doing some you know, freaky stuff,

425
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,640
Speaker 1: even they think this is ridiculous. I got that conversation

426
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 1: with them, and even they think this is stupid. But

427
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 1: but it's probably because they're around our age. I think

428
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:35,160
Speaker 1: that might be. Alexis said that this is bullshit. Yeah,

429
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 1: I've been taking for Alexis calls for years and America's

430
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 1: favorite drag queen caller. Come on, l r C. Now,

431
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 1: this is real quickly all a lot of time. So

432
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 1: my wife had a work party last weekend. It was

433
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,880
Speaker 1: not in the city she works, and they met her

434
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 1: and her co workers met in Pomona. So I spent

435
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:59,080
Speaker 1: some time in beautiful Pomona in southern California. I would

436
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: say it's one of the great vacation destinations in the

437
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 1: Greater l A area. I think you'd agreed, Danny. People travel.

438
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 1: My grandmother used to take us to the swap meet

439
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 1: there when I was a little bit. Yes, that that's

440
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: one of the highlights. But there are hard working people

441
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 1: and promoted. There's some great restaurants and breweries and whatnot.

442
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 1: So we went to a brewery and it was really cool.

443
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 1: They had live music. It was a big crowd. But

444
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 1: I'm an introvert. I'm not an extrovert, so it's very

445
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,880
Speaker 1: hard for me to go to parties. And you'll learn

446
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 1: that for those of you, and we're doing this after

447
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: the fact, but for those of you that met met

448
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,320
Speaker 1: me at the party on Friday night, that that that's

449
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: a lot of work for me to go and be social.

450
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,399
Speaker 1: So anyway, I went out and my wife's co workers

451
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 1: very nice people, very good people, hard working people, and

452
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 1: they do a great job. They save lives and all that.

453
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 1: And there was a big crowd. It was a good vibe.

454
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,679
Speaker 1: But we played this game that I'd never played before.

455
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 1: I call it l RC's Left Right Center. You ever

456
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: played Left Right Center? No? Oh, it's a great game.

457
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna tell you when you when we have

458
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,439
Speaker 1: the one of the parties. If you get down here

459
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 1: with your your tinderoni there, we will play the game.

460
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 1: It is awesome, it's really cool. It's it's three dice

461
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: and three dollars. So you start out with three dollars

462
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 1: and you take turns rolling the dice. Everyone puts three

463
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: dollars on the table and there's three dice and the

464
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,919
Speaker 1: dice have left right center and like a blank spot,

465
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,360
Speaker 1: you roll all three dice and if it comes up

466
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 1: left right center, you're out of money. You give one

467
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 1: dollar to the person on the left of you. You

468
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 1: put a dollar in the middle, which is the center,

469
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: which is the community chest, and then you give one

470
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 1: person the right uh, and then you're out. But you

471
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,680
Speaker 1: can still get back in the game because you keep playing,

472
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: and then the person next to you can give you

473
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 1: a dollar, and so it keeps going. Yeah, and uh,

474
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,879
Speaker 1: it's a lot. It's very easy to play. It's great

475
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,120
Speaker 1: when you're consuming copious amounts of alcohol. I was gonna say,

476
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,399
Speaker 1: we should do it at the restaurant with seventy people.

477
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 1: Oh that's a good that's a good idea. I wish

478
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: I had thought of dollar Militia to bring your dollar

479
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 1: bills being Benn are gonna take them. I don't know

480
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 1: how old this game is. I don't know much about it.

481
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 1: I'd never heard it before last Friday, but I love it.

482
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: It's like, so it's so easy. I'm not that intelligent,

483
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 1: and it's fun and you can drink and it's you know,

484
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,919
Speaker 1: everyone it's only three dollars. How hard is that? You

485
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: know everyone can afford three bucks? So anyway, there's that

486
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 1: all right now the Backscratcher, Danny. This is where if

00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,360
Speaker 1: And any update on that, any traction anything at all?

501

Speaker 1: paper that put out the story and track the guy's

513
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,560

Speaker 1: some radio show and talk about it. Yeah. I'm used

515
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 1: to tracking those kind of people down that are in

516
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 1: the stories with animals. It's gonna be crazy when it

517
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 1: gets all set and it's in stone and you know

518
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: how slow some of this stuff works been because it's

519
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 1: like you and the penny and you and your contract.

520
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,920
Speaker 1: There's stuff going on behind the scenes, and it's out

521
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 1: of our control. We can't speed it up. Yeah, no,

522
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,640
Speaker 1: for sure, it's uh it's and I just went through

523
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 1: it with my as you said, my contract and negotiations,

524
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 1: and it probably took two months to get that deal

525
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 1: done because of the back and forth people on vacation.

526
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,479
Speaker 1: Lawyers are involved. They gotta they gotta write everything up.

527
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: Contracts all right, no deals here, writes in He says,

528
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: great podcast, five stars, great podcast, very entertaining. I would

529
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 1: crawl across broken glass to listen to this podcast. I

530
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: don't advise that. I don't advise that, alright. Last while

531
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 1: from Jay Scoop, he says, the fifth hour saved my life.

532
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: I purchased a thousand dollar paperweight called an iPhone thirteen

533
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 1: Promax just so I could write this review. But before

534
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 1: I sat down to write this, I decided to go

535
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 1: for a walk. When beginning to cross the road, jaywalking

536
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 1: without looking both ways, I fumbled my phone to the

537
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 1: ground and had to stop to pick it up. Just then,

538
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 1: a garbage truck came barreling through, barely missing me and

539
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 1: honking at me in shame as they went by. Guys,

540
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 1: it scared the crap out of me so much so

541
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 1: that it woke me up from that dream. After all,

542
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 1: I realized it's August and I've had my phone since February,

543
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 1: so I'd better jump to it with this review, uh

544
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: says love the show. By the time this is read
