He's the last remnants 0:00:09.200 --> 0:00:12.480 of the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He 0:00:12.560 --> 0:00:15.480 treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the 0:00:15.600 --> 0:00:19.600 rich pill poppers in the penthouse.

The Fifth Hour with Me, Ben 0:00:34.600 --> 0:00:40.760 Mahler and Danny g Radio in a very happy, happy, 0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:45.159 happy Sunday to you. It's on I Don't Get Gone 0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:49.680 in the NFL. We got early action from Madrid. Still 0:00:49.760 --> 0:00:54.400 time though, to watch Benny Versus the Penny on YouTube. 0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:58.440 That show iconic. I'd like to thank the United States 0:00:58.440 --> 0:01:02.040 government for promoting the penny tremendous job by trying to 0:01:02.080 --> 0:01:05.920 cancel the penny helping Benny Versus the Penny. You can 0:01:06.000 --> 0:01:09.480 also support Benny Versus the Penny right now by watching 0:01:09.560 --> 0:01:12.080 it on YouTube at Benny versus the Penny. Give us 0:01:12.080 --> 0:01:14.240 a subscribe that would help us out a lot, and 0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:17.800 just watch it every week, just putting it on even 0:01:17.800 --> 0:01:19.520 if you mute it. I don't care maybe you don't 0:01:19.520 --> 0:01:21.880 like the sound of my voice, just mute it. It works. 0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:24.559 But the game in Madrid, as we said on Benny 0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:28.360 Versus the Penny, the Commanders and the Dolphins providing you, 0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:33.840 providing you this matchup because we are you and Madrid Spain, 0:01:34.360 --> 0:01:37.880 because we as Americans are outsourcing some of our bad products. 0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:40.679 But that'll be the early game and then the big 0:01:40.840 --> 0:01:44.120 big games of the day. Today there are some doozies, 0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:49.360 some humdingers, these Seahawks and the Rams. I will not 0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:52.080 be at that game. I had a social event last night. 0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:55.240 I will be taking it easy today. Going on that later. 0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.560 The Seahawks and Rams, though both seven and two in 0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:02.640 La couple of NFC the super Powers teams contending for 0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:06.080 the Super Bowl, though Seattle's a foe contenders. No Stradinis 0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:09.520 knows JJ and Rent and Crying Craig and all my 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:13.280 guys in the Pacific Northwest. Uh blind Emmitt the Seahawk 0:02:13.320 --> 0:02:17.560 fan because of Sam Darnold. Yeah, not sure about that, 0:02:17.919 --> 0:02:20.440 but that's the biggest game. Even though Tom Brady is 0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:22.720 not going to be there for some reason, he's calling 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:26.760 the Bears Vikings games. Somebody goofed that one up. You've 0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:30.120 also got Jamis Winston. Now, this is not a big 0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:33.480 game in terms of record. The Packers are underachieving. The 0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:37.720 Giants have always been bad. They're not underachieving, they're living 0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:41.880 up to expectations. But you've got Jamis Winston, Mike Kofka, 0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:45.079 the interim coach taking over there. So that'll be good. 0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:48.200 The Chiefs and the Broncos. That's a humdinger of a game. 0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:51.440 That's a humdinger game. Chiefs very important for them to 0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:54.040 get to six and four. They can close the gap 0:02:54.080 --> 0:02:57.000 on the Broncos to one game in the AFC West. 0:02:57.400 --> 0:02:59.560 Broncos come into that game at eight and two. You've 0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:04.160 got Homes versus bo Nicks, Lions and Eagles. That'll be 0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:08.600 the nightcap tonight, massive game, massive game, not not an 0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:11.359 a visional game. But Lions six and three, they can 0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:14.080 tie the Eagles. They'd have the tiebreaker in terms of 0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:22.480 head to head Lions and Eagles Tonight on and BC. Yeah. Today, 0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:27.799 by the way, is National fast Food Day. National fast 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:30.640 Food Day today, so celebrate appropriately, go out get some 0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:34.240 fast food. Although it is interesting to note, as Vin 0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:37.600 Scully would say, despite it being National Fast Food Day, 0:03:38.000 --> 0:03:42.160 you cannot get Chick fil A because it's Sunday, they're 0:03:42.200 --> 0:03:46.520 not open today. The very first fast food goes back 0:03:46.680 --> 0:03:50.160 thirty two hundred BC. How about that there was a 0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:56.640 takeout window that made its debut. The Mesopotamian ruins featured 0:03:56.640 --> 0:04:00.320 a window. They had a fireplace, leftover food and a 0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:04.960 ton of bowls, and archaeologist easier for me to say, 0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:10.920 archaeologists suspect that these these were takeout restaurants. That way 0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:16.800 back in Mesopotamia they had takeout restaurants thirty two hundred BC. 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:23.719 It wasn't until the fifteen hundreds that a missionary priest 0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:30.040 came up with Tomali's to go. Yes, as tech Street 0:04:30.120 --> 0:04:34.200 markets sold to Maali's with hot sauce. That was in 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:37.160 the fifteen hundreds. And then you fast forward all the 0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:41.200 way up to nineteen twelve and you had New York's 0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:48.680 Automat restaurant popularized the phrase take out food. So that 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:51.200 phrase goes back to nineteen twelve. Yes, that's an added 0:04:51.240 --> 0:04:54.720 phrase of the week phrase all the week, the phrase 0:04:54.800 --> 0:05:00.200 popularized by New York's Automat restaurant take out food. Then, 0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:05.640 in nineteen twenty one, what many consider the first modern 0:05:05.720 --> 0:05:10.039 fast food, White Castle the first modern fast food restaurant. 0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:13.839 Some say open its doors in nineteen twenty one, and 0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:18.440 then you go up to nineteen ninety four, and that 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:23.320 is when McDonald stopped counting the number of burgers it 0:05:23.480 --> 0:05:27.159 sold at ninety nine billion. Used to have that sign 0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:31.200 where they said ninety nine billion burgers have been sold here, 0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:35.720 and they kept raising the number, and then they got 0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:38.840 so high, I want to say trillion and trillion, and 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:42.039 as they just stopped, they just they just stopped. Yeah, 0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:43.760 that's it, all right, Let's get to the mail bag. 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:47.200 Oh hiowow can you get me in the mood? OHIOO? 0:05:47.440 --> 0:05:57.080 Can you get me in the mood? It's in this 0:05:57.160 --> 0:06:06.960 mail bag? Ohio al. It is a solo edition of 0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:10.000 the Mailbag. No Danny g this weekend, but you got me? 0:06:11.000 --> 0:06:16.120 And first up on the mailbag Reggie. Reggie's back. He 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:18.360 took some time off, but he's back. Reggie's in Detroit. 0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:21.359 He says, Hey, Ben and Danny, do you guys like 0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:27.640 your mutant meat medium? Well or well done? Very funny? Reggie. 0:06:27.640 --> 0:06:31.159 There was a story he sent me here and it 0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:35.360 says clone meat will soon enter the Canadian grocery stores 0:06:36.040 --> 0:06:40.960 without safety reviews or labeling. And then it says here 0:06:41.000 --> 0:06:43.920 that those of us that are in America have been 0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:52.200 eating it for years, for years, been eating mutant meat. Yeah, 0:06:52.240 --> 0:06:54.599 a lot of people apparently surprised by this. It was 0:06:54.640 --> 0:06:57.080 revealed that similar products that are making a big deal 0:06:57.120 --> 0:07:01.520 about this in Canada have quietly been on the shelves 0:07:01.560 --> 0:07:07.600 for years. Holy supermarket, Steve Batman, what are you doing, 0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:12.040 supermarket Steve? You're selling people mutant meat. What's wrong with you? 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:16.320 No labels? Nothing? Yeah. So I want all of my meat, 0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:21.600 whether it's traditional animal meat or whatever the lab grown 0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:25.320 meat is. I want it well done, loser, I want 0:07:25.360 --> 0:07:28.120 it well done. Next up, Kevin Cleveland writes in on 0:07:28.120 --> 0:07:32.040 the Mailbag. He says, so, hey, Ben and Danny, g 0:07:32.320 --> 0:07:34.520 I'm kind of an average looking guy, but I've got 0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:38.600 a good sense of humor. Do you think you think 0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:41.520 I got a shot on getting a hot woman? And 0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:44.800 then he sent the He sent a story that says 0:07:44.840 --> 0:07:49.360 women like to date funny men who are less attractive 0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:55.120 than them according to a new study. So then Kevin says, 0:07:55.160 --> 0:08:00.520 do you believe this report or not? Uh? Yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:04.440 Well women, I don't obviously, I'm not a woman. I 0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:06.640 don't have the women parts, and hope I can speak 0:08:07.360 --> 0:08:12.000 from just observing life that a lot of women would 0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:15.680 love a funny man. They find men that have a 0:08:15.720 --> 0:08:19.080 lot of money to be very funny, even when they're not. 0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:24.480 They find men that might be very attractive or very 0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:26.880 gifted in certain areas to be very funny even if 0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:32.440 they're not. So. The term funny has a sliding scale, Right, 0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:37.160 you get a lot funnier, keV in Cleveland. You're a 0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:41.520 lot funnier when you've got a big bank account, big 0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:46.280 giant mansion, nice expensive cars. That really makes you funny, 0:08:46.280 --> 0:08:48.080 if you know what I'm saying, right, it doesn't really 0:08:48.120 --> 0:08:52.720 matter how attractive you are. And the part which I 0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:57.840 do agree, like women just want someone who's less attractive 0:08:57.880 --> 0:09:00.559 than them. They don't want a guy. That's so everyone's 0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:03.880 like looking at the guy, which rarely happens anyway, mostly 0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:06.520 stare at women. But nonetheless, you know, you know, you 0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:10.119 know what I'm saying, all right, Thanks Kevin in Cleveland, 0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:13.040 a city that I have been to once in my life, 0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:15.560 and who knows if I'll ever come back. Maybe we'll 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:17.800 do the Ohio Meet and greet in Cleveland. Well, I 0:09:17.800 --> 0:09:21.280 feel like we have more people in the Cincinnati area. 0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:27.719 Jay from the Bay rights in and says that according 0:09:27.760 --> 0:09:35.000 to a new survey, this is the golden ratio. According 0:09:35.000 --> 0:09:39.160 to the Golden Ratio, Jay from the Bay says, Emma 0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:44.559 Stone is the most beautiful woman in the world. According 0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:49.920 to this story that Jay sent me, Zendaya is a 0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:54.600 closed second. All right, so let's let's dive into this 0:09:54.679 --> 0:10:02.760 the Golden ratio. The hell is the the Golden ratio. 0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:12.439 According to a cosmetic and plastic surgery center in London, 0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:18.120 they say that Emma Stone the winner when all elements 0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:22.800 of the face were measured for physical perfection. They gave 0:10:22.800 --> 0:10:27.520 her a ninety four point seven percent score Golden ratio, 0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:36.760 which measures physical perfection. According to that, Zendea, Beyonce, Margot 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:43.800 Robbie also did well. According to this, I don't think 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:47.280 I've heard this. The Golden ratio is a mathematical equation. 0:10:47.880 --> 0:10:51.080 They say. It was devised by the Greeks in an 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:55.600 attempt to measure beauty. It can be applied to almost anything, 0:10:56.800 --> 0:11:00.480 and was even used by Leo or Leo Nardo da 0:11:00.559 --> 0:11:04.679 Vinci for the perfect human male body in his famous 0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:10.079 work That the Statue the Man There the v man, 0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:12.440 whatever it's called. So the premise mind of the golden 0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:15.480 ratio is that the closer the ratios of the of 0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:21.079 a face or body are to the number five, the 0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:25.719 more beautiful they become. And I'm probably butchering this. I 0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:29.720 realize I'm probably butchering this, but that's that's what I'm reading. 0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:31.920 I'm just giving you the story from this guy, Jay 0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:34.640 who sent this. This is a story he sent me 0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:39.880 daily mail from the Daily Mail, the UK London Daily Mail. 0:11:40.480 --> 0:11:43.640 Then Jay said, do you even know who Emma Stone is? 0:11:44.520 --> 0:11:47.720 All right? So, Jay, A, I've heard the name Emma Stone. 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:52.280 I've heard the name Emma Stone. B I think I've 0:11:52.320 --> 0:11:54.880 even seen one of her movies. Wasn't she in some 0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:59.079 Spider Man movies like a long time ago. I believe 0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:03.720 I saw Emma's Stone in some Spider Man movies. So 0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:07.280 I'm gonna go yes on that, Jay. If she was 0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:12.560 in a lineup of Hollywood starlets, like a police lineup, 0:12:12.679 --> 0:12:14.760 I would not be able to pick her out. I 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:18.080 would not. But I've heard the name, and I think 0:12:18.200 --> 0:12:20.400 I saw her in some Spider Man movies. And I 0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:23.080 could be completely wrong, And I promise if I am wrong, 0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:26.040 some of you knuckleheads are going to email me. You 0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:33.160 know you're wrong. Okay, thank you. Let's see who's next. 0:12:33.440 --> 0:12:36.360 We have the Big O from Florida. I didn't know 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:39.360 the Big O' lived in Florida. He says, Hey, Ben 0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:43.199 and Danny, I love the podcast doing the honeyde List 0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:47.480 on the weekend, and he says, I wanted to get 0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:51.640 your take. I know you've complained Ben about air travel. Also, 0:12:51.760 --> 0:12:55.400 Danny flies a lot with the radio stuff. What do 0:12:55.440 --> 0:12:59.480 you guys think about United Airlines arguing that window seats 0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:07.839 do not mean you're sitting with a window. Yeah, I 0:13:08.600 --> 0:13:13.080 like this story, Big O from Florida. So this to 0:13:13.120 --> 0:13:15.760 give me the thumbnail recap on this if you didn't 0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:19.600 see it. So there's some passengers that say they paid 0:13:19.600 --> 0:13:24.680 a premium. They selected their seats anywhere from thirty to 0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:28.360 over one hundred dollars on a flight expecting a view. 0:13:28.480 --> 0:13:32.719 They thought they were paying extra for a window and 0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:35.760 a genuine window seat, and they claimed they got the 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:38.920 old bait and switch that they claimed that they just 0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:40.840 happened to be sitting there and there was no window. 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:44.800 There was just the fuselage of the airplane. And they're saying, hey, 0:13:44.840 --> 0:13:49.080 we would not have booked or paid extra for the 0:13:49.200 --> 0:13:53.040 seat that lacked the window. The lawsuit alleges that this 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:59.760 constitutes deceptive or unfair trade practices and in some instances, 0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:03.000 a breach of contract. So in order to get out 0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:09.840 of a lawsuit, they're saying, hey, listen, you know we're 0:14:09.960 --> 0:14:14.280 not really we are not really providing you an actual window, 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:20.640 and this is proof that you will do anything, anything 0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:24.080 at all, to avoid having to pay out a settlement. 0:14:24.160 --> 0:14:27.560 I remember the cable news channels got sued up the wazoo, 0:14:27.600 --> 0:14:30.720 and this was always their go to defense that even 0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:34.040 though it says news in the name of the channel, 0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:36.400 the big news channels. I will not name them here, 0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:38.560 I think you can figure out which. They've all been 0:14:38.600 --> 0:14:40.480 sued a ton. Every once in a while they lose, 0:14:40.680 --> 0:14:43.880 but almost always they claim that they're on air talent, 0:14:44.040 --> 0:14:50.000 are not not newspeople, they're not reporters, that they're entertainers. 0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:54.320 It's like an entertainment show. It's kind of like the 0:14:54.480 --> 0:15:03.960 NFL is allowed technically to fixed games. It can be 0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:09.480 like professional wrestling. They claim that that argument in a 0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:14.160 court case, you can just AI it or google it 0:15:14.200 --> 0:15:17.000 and find out the details. So it's not unusual. I 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:19.680 would love to be in court a fly in the 0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:24.360 courtroom when the lawyer for the United Airlines says, okay, 0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:27.320 this is not you did not buy a window seat. 0:15:27.400 --> 0:15:31.360 But mister lawyer, it says on the website that it 0:15:31.480 --> 0:15:34.240 shows a little graphic and then you're near the outside 0:15:34.280 --> 0:15:37.040 of the plane, near the window, which would indicate that's 0:15:37.040 --> 0:15:40.080 a window seat. Well, yeah, it says on the graphic, 0:15:40.120 --> 0:15:44.320 but window seat does not mean with a window. It 0:15:44.360 --> 0:15:46.720 does not mean but but no, it says it shows 0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:48.600 it right here on the website. What doesn't matter what 0:15:48.640 --> 0:15:52.480 you don't believe you're lying. Eyes, don't believe you're lying. 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:55.120 Eyes all right. Next up, Ryan on the mailback. Thank 0:15:55.120 --> 0:15:58.480 you by the way, big oh, Ryan from Shrewsbury, Mass 0:15:58.560 --> 0:16:02.200 is back, he says he Bannon Danny. It's been a 0:16:02.200 --> 0:16:05.280 while since I last emailed into the pod. I am 0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:10.040 finally back from getting married and going on the honeymoon. Mazeltov, congratulations, Ryan, 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:12.200 ho'pe be had a wonderful time. I like your advice. 0:16:12.240 --> 0:16:17.240 Selective hearing question this week is since it's getting colder 0:16:17.280 --> 0:16:20.840 outside around the country, is soup a year round meal? 0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:25.520 Since you answered my taco question, regarding softer Heartshell, I 0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:28.440 want to know your thoughts on this. I believe and 0:16:28.640 --> 0:16:31.640 so does the wife, that it could be a year 0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:36.600 round meal. Yeah, so, Ryan, I'm hit and miss, and 0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:40.120 your bride I'm hitting miss. When it comes to soup, 0:16:41.200 --> 0:16:44.240 there's only a few that I go to. As I've 0:16:44.240 --> 0:16:49.240 gotten older, my palate for soup has improved. When I 0:16:49.280 --> 0:16:51.600 was younger, I used to only eat matza ball slash 0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:54.160 chicken soup. That was it. It was a holiday thing 0:16:54.880 --> 0:16:59.840 for Thanksgiving, for Hanukkah, for other Jewish holidays. We would 0:16:59.840 --> 0:17:01.840 sell the house. When I was growing up, we would 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:03.960 have mantzibal soup was part of the deal. I just 0:17:04.040 --> 0:17:06.760 expected mantzi ball soup and if my mom didn't make it, 0:17:06.760 --> 0:17:10.320 I would get upset. And then I discovered French onion soup, 0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:13.760 and I said, oh my god, I love French onion soup. 0:17:14.000 --> 0:17:17.200 So I went with that, And then as an adult, 0:17:17.359 --> 0:17:20.640 I had Italian wedding singer soup. I believe it's called 0:17:21.280 --> 0:17:24.199 love that or alphabet soup, where I love that. I 0:17:24.200 --> 0:17:27.760 thought that was great. I even occasionally, don't tell anybody, 0:17:28.080 --> 0:17:32.199 I'll go for a tomato bisk soup. Very rare but 0:17:32.440 --> 0:17:35.159 I'll go for that, so I have expanded my palate. 0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:38.719 Am I sitting here in July eating soup? No, I'm not. 0:17:39.320 --> 0:17:42.320 And the problem with soup is it's great, but it's 0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:44.840 not a meal. You got to eat it with a meal. 0:17:45.960 --> 0:17:47.480 It's more of a snack if you eat it by 0:17:47.560 --> 0:17:52.880 itself and you're not really feeling it. Now, there are 0:17:52.920 --> 0:17:55.480 some thicker soups. I don't need that. My mom would 0:17:55.520 --> 0:17:58.680 make lentil soup, which is like a Russian dish. When 0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:01.960 I was growing up, I did not enjoy that. I 0:18:02.000 --> 0:18:04.320 would pick out the pieces of meat that were in 0:18:04.359 --> 0:18:08.879 the around the lentils, defeating the purpose of the lentil soup. 0:18:09.520 --> 0:18:13.320 And that would be my move. And just for Terry 0:18:13.359 --> 0:18:16.240 and England if he's listening, this is not a list, 0:18:16.280 --> 0:18:20.320 but my big board, I would have Monza ball soup 0:18:20.359 --> 0:18:24.160 at number one on the big board, French onion number two. 0:18:25.200 --> 0:18:30.720 I'd have your traditional standard chicken soup number three. That 0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:33.119 would be number three, and then number four would be 0:18:33.400 --> 0:18:37.400 the aforementioned tomato bisk and then also the Italian soup 0:18:37.440 --> 0:18:39.000 would be in there at number five. So that would 0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:42.040 be it. Not a list, not a list, a big 0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:46.320 board Kevin in Kansas rites into the mail bag. He says, Hey, 0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:49.600 Ben and Danny g my nephew works security for a 0:18:49.680 --> 0:18:53.800 major sports retail store in Dallas. Recently, they caught teens 0:18:53.840 --> 0:18:57.119 opening packs of baseball cards. The kids didn't like what 0:18:57.240 --> 0:19:00.359 they got and they threw them away without paying. They 0:19:00.359 --> 0:19:03.440 were caught and prosecuted as much as they could be. 0:19:04.400 --> 0:19:08.080 Not that you ever would, but what would it take 0:19:08.160 --> 0:19:11.240 for you to get that desperate and take the risk 0:19:11.359 --> 0:19:16.440 with baseball cards? Yeah? So, Kevin, first of all, it's 0:19:16.520 --> 0:19:19.240 not really if they're kids, it's not so much of 0:19:19.280 --> 0:19:23.840 a risk. They were trying to get some amazing card. 0:19:24.080 --> 0:19:27.119 For me. Obviously Danny's not here today, but for me, 0:19:27.640 --> 0:19:31.560 I would go if there's like a Wemby rookie card, 0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:35.000 which you know is going to be worth three hundred 0:19:35.040 --> 0:19:38.359 thousand dollars. This guy's a mutant. I was watching the 0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:41.800 Spurs game on Friday. I had it on the background. 0:19:41.800 --> 0:19:43.439 I had a buddy of mine over who were watching 0:19:43.440 --> 0:19:45.200 the Spurs and the Golden State Wars because it was 0:19:45.200 --> 0:19:50.840 the only thing on our guy, mister Harlan was calling 0:19:50.840 --> 0:19:53.399 the game for Amazon with Brent Barry. So I was 0:19:53.440 --> 0:19:58.800 watching that and I'm checking on, like Wemby is the 0:19:58.840 --> 0:20:03.280 tall version of Kyler Murray, you know when you're watching 0:20:03.320 --> 0:20:05.959 the Cardinals and alligator arms Murray and it's like, well, 0:20:06.040 --> 0:20:08.119 I think my TV broke. That guy doesn't look like 0:20:08.119 --> 0:20:10.679 he belongs to him? Is like a glitch. What's up 0:20:10.680 --> 0:20:12.560 with the thing of a jig but what you might 0:20:12.680 --> 0:20:15.159 call it? And I'm watching the Spurs game and all 0:20:15.200 --> 0:20:18.000 these guys are really tall, the tall people play basketball, 0:20:18.080 --> 0:20:22.040 and Wemby looks like he does not belong It's like, 0:20:22.280 --> 0:20:26.199 wait a minute, who puts Sasquatch on the court? Sasquatch 0:20:26.200 --> 0:20:30.560 shouldn't be out there? What's up with that? So it's 0:20:31.119 --> 0:20:34.080 pretty wacky, pretty wacky about Kevin. Thank you. I'll glad 0:20:34.119 --> 0:20:38.720 you are a regular emailer to The Fifth Hour mail Bag. 0:20:39.040 --> 0:20:40.640 It doesn't mean like if you would like to email 0:20:40.840 --> 0:20:44.359 the podcast for a future edition of the mail Bag. 0:20:44.440 --> 0:20:47.040 First of all, follow the podcast, subscribe to the podcast. 0:20:47.080 --> 0:20:49.080 That helps us out a lot the Fifth Hour podcast 0:20:49.560 --> 0:20:51.919 as the audio content does not end even here on 0:20:52.040 --> 0:20:58.320 NFL Sundays like today. Yeah, so next up, says Jose. 0:20:59.240 --> 0:21:03.480 He says, hello, Lord Ben and mister g nor Cal. 0:21:03.680 --> 0:21:09.119 Jose now in Massachusetts. He says, what do you think 0:21:09.320 --> 0:21:13.760 of Tom Brady killing the Raiders back in the snowball 0:21:14.040 --> 0:21:18.439 game and then now killing them again by all the 0:21:18.600 --> 0:21:22.800 dumb hirings he did, But this time they deserve it 0:21:23.040 --> 0:21:27.000 for leaving Oakland. And I think all the NorCal people 0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:31.200 love you because of your hate of the Dodgers and Lakers. 0:21:31.240 --> 0:21:33.800 Makes it fun for us. And what happened to your 0:21:33.800 --> 0:21:38.280 little brother, David Finley? I think you mean Brian Finley. 0:21:38.760 --> 0:21:42.720 He says, that's from Jose. Well, I don't hate the Dodgers. 0:21:43.520 --> 0:21:48.000 I did the Dodger radio postgame show for a little 0:21:48.000 --> 0:21:51.520 bit back in the day. I just I don't like 0:21:51.640 --> 0:21:56.119 the hubris of the Dodgers. They're not reinventing the wheel. 0:21:56.280 --> 0:21:59.240 They're spending more money than anyone else, which I'm fine with. 0:21:59.320 --> 0:22:01.239 They're winning. You should win when you spend a lot 0:22:01.280 --> 0:22:02.600 of money. I want to work for a boss that 0:22:02.640 --> 0:22:04.520 spends a lot of money. It's one of those things, 0:22:04.560 --> 0:22:09.199 Jose that I find ridonculous among sports fans. They're like 0:22:09.440 --> 0:22:11.880 ripping and mocking the teams that spend a lot of money. 0:22:11.960 --> 0:22:14.600 I know, as an employee, I would like to work 0:22:14.600 --> 0:22:18.960 for a company that values their employers their employees rather 0:22:19.040 --> 0:22:21.120 and is going to spend a lot of money. Why 0:22:21.119 --> 0:22:23.360 would I want to work for a nickel and dime operation. 0:22:23.480 --> 0:22:25.080 I would much rather If I was a baseball player, 0:22:25.119 --> 0:22:27.280 I'd want to play for the Dodgers as opposed to 0:22:27.359 --> 0:22:31.080 the Brewers or the Rays or the A's or one 0:22:31.119 --> 0:22:34.920 of those type teams. But that being said, that being said, 0:22:35.000 --> 0:22:36.960 I'm not going to sit here behind these microphones and 0:22:37.480 --> 0:22:43.320 listen to the bull crap propaganda that's out there. It's 0:22:43.400 --> 0:22:45.760 just for today. I mean, these fanboys just made me 0:22:45.800 --> 0:22:48.480 want a puke in my mouth. As far as Brian 0:22:48.600 --> 0:22:52.239 Finley Daddy, which I believe you're relating to, I think 0:22:52.280 --> 0:22:54.000 he's doing some tennis play by player. I don't know. 0:22:54.400 --> 0:22:58.000 We were work friends, and when you're work friends, that's it. 0:22:58.000 --> 0:23:01.080 It's all over, you know, He'll usually what happens with 0:23:01.119 --> 0:23:03.000 work friends, I'll explain. So, I think we all have 0:23:03.080 --> 0:23:06.640 work friends. But with work friends, you're friendly with them 0:23:06.680 --> 0:23:09.399 because you have to be. You work with them, and 0:23:09.920 --> 0:23:12.399 you only see them at work. You don't socialize, and 0:23:12.480 --> 0:23:16.719 so then when so and so is over, the relationship 0:23:16.800 --> 0:23:20.080 is over. You move on. That's it. Each go your 0:23:20.080 --> 0:23:24.520 separate ways. And normally, what I've experienced is that people 0:23:24.560 --> 0:23:26.520 I used to work with who were work friends, when 0:23:26.560 --> 0:23:29.280 they lose their job, they will reach out to me, Hey, 0:23:29.320 --> 0:23:31.280 do you know anyone the hiring or do you know 0:23:31.400 --> 0:23:36.480 so and so at that radio station over there in Omaha, 0:23:37.480 --> 0:23:40.920 something along those lines. Also, Jose says, my daughter Marlene 0:23:40.960 --> 0:23:44.800 says hello, Hello, Marlene. She says hello again. She is 0:23:44.960 --> 0:23:49.439 nine and loves your show, listens to everything on the 0:23:49.520 --> 0:23:52.840 radio show, on the podcast, and wants to know when 0:23:52.840 --> 0:23:56.680 the Malard merch is coming out. Well, Jose, were we've 0:23:56.680 --> 0:23:58.960 had a setback. I feel back because every time I 0:23:58.960 --> 0:24:01.240 talk about this stuff, I think we're close to something. 0:24:03.600 --> 0:24:06.639 Something inevitbly happened. It's Maler's law, not Murphy's law. It's 0:24:06.680 --> 0:24:10.399 Maler's law. So I thought there were two things I've 0:24:10.440 --> 0:24:12.280 talked about a lot on this podcast, the Ohio meet 0:24:12.320 --> 0:24:14.200 and greet, which we thought we had nailed down. Somebody 0:24:14.200 --> 0:24:17.000 bailed out last minute, and I just said, I screw it, 0:24:17.000 --> 0:24:19.920 We'll just wait until next year. We'll just wait until 0:24:19.920 --> 0:24:24.840 next year. No one has reached out to step up 0:24:24.960 --> 0:24:27.040 for the Ohio Malor Meet and greet. We did have 0:24:27.119 --> 0:24:29.000 somebody lined up that was going to kind of be 0:24:29.080 --> 0:24:32.080 boots on the ground and had said they had a 0:24:32.160 --> 0:24:35.600 venue and all this stuff, and unfortunately they turned out 0:24:35.600 --> 0:24:38.560 to be a flake, which is it happens and that's 0:24:38.640 --> 0:24:40.560 just life. They said, some stuff happened. They couldn't do 0:24:40.600 --> 0:24:44.560 it anymore, which is disappointing, and we'll figure it out 0:24:44.600 --> 0:24:46.760 in twenty twenty six. The other thing is the malor merch. 0:24:46.880 --> 0:24:49.080 I had some stuff lined up. There were some logos 0:24:49.119 --> 0:24:54.760 that I had been sent some different products that the 0:24:55.160 --> 0:24:57.600 person I won't say their name here because this still 0:24:57.600 --> 0:25:00.360 could work out. A person who's a fan of show 0:25:00.480 --> 0:25:02.600 had sent some stuff over said what do you think 0:25:02.640 --> 0:25:03.840 of this? What do you think of that? You know 0:25:03.880 --> 0:25:05.840 we can sell this, we can sell that, blah blah blah, 0:25:06.520 --> 0:25:09.880 T shirt ideas, all this stuff, and now I'm all ears. 0:25:09.920 --> 0:25:12.199 I'm like, okay, you know it sounds good. Let's you 0:25:12.200 --> 0:25:14.280 know that's what's going to take to start this. Let's 0:25:14.320 --> 0:25:16.000 get this thing started. Oh, you need a website. Okay, 0:25:16.040 --> 0:25:18.040 we'll get a website. Fine, all right, we've got to 0:25:18.040 --> 0:25:20.040 price it out. Okay, we'll price it out. Do you 0:25:20.040 --> 0:25:21.879 want to have stuff available all the time? Do you 0:25:21.880 --> 0:25:23.600 want a limited edition? I said, well, let's let's do 0:25:23.680 --> 0:25:27.040
