Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 2: of the old republic, a sol fashion of fairness. He

5
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the

22
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,600

00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,919
Speaker 3: UCLA a chance to have a homecoming.

24
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: Well, he's in the concussion protocol, right, the concussion protocol

25
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: and all that. I guess I.

26
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 3: Thought I thought he was better. I guess you're right.

27
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:30,320
Speaker 3: He's still hurt.

28
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, dtr But anyway, we'll see what happened.

29
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 3: One of those concussions last a couple of weeks. Huh.

30
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: It's amazing though. When we were kids, they did not.

31
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 3: He just there was no such thing as concussions when

32
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 3: we were kids.

33
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: Nothing's changed more in my lifetime than the concussions we

34
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 1: were a kids. Just put some dirt on it. You're

35
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: good to go. Nothing about here.

36
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 3: You you take some Madville, You're good. Don't be a woosk.

37
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: Come on, that's that's just your brain telling you need

38
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: to work harder.

39
00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 3: I have a huge basketball IQ.

40
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to it. We'll start with pop

41
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: goes the culture, and that means our guy, Ohio, Aljohn John,

42
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: all right, thank you for that, Ohiol. This story it's

43
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: a few days old, but I think it warrants getting

44
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: a mention here because it's right out of a movie

45
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: and the country of Paraguay an official there resigning signing

46
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: an agreement after signing an agreement with a country that

47
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: did not exist. A fake company was able to get

48
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:53,239
Speaker 1: an agreement with the country of Paraguay. How great is that?

49
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: That is? That is wonderful? Didn't they make a movie?

50
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: Borat right?

51
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 3: I was just thinking that high five I was born at.

52
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: Very nice. A Paraguayan government official has been replaced after

53
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: it was revealed that he signed a memorandum of understanding

54
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: with representatives of a fugitive Indian gurus made up country.

55
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: That's a lot. There's a lot going on fugitive Indian

56
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: guru fictional country and was duped by several other several

57
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: other Apparently this guy was able to dupe several other

58
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 1: big political figures. So that's just just wonderful. So this

59
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: guy's got a website for the fictional country, because why not.

60
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: He's a fugitive Indian guru. He established a cosmic country

61
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: off of Ecuador. So if you just know how to

62
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: talk to people, this guy's a self anointed god man

63
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: and he's facing all kinds of criminal charges in India,

64
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: but he established his own island off the coast of Ecuador,

65
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: and that's wow.

66
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 3: Well, we are self appointed Marconi Award winners.

67
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 1: Absolutely well. I have worked at the sports hub that

68
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 1: won the Marconi and Wei Marconio winning stations, and so

69
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: we get I think the number is sixteen point six

70
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 1: percent credit for the Marconi.

71
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 3: I think they won in spite of you.

72
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: How dare you? The most important time of the radio

73
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: is between two and six in the morning. That is

74
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: the That's the money making time right there. That is

75
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: the money making time. Well you know it's not money

76
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: making time sitting in traffic. A new list out for

77
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: the year twenty twenty three is it wraps up here?

78
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:51,720
Speaker 1: The top ten worst cities for congestion have been revealed.

79
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 1: I have the top seven here. Who do you think

80
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,679
Speaker 1: is number one? For let's say we have the rankings.

81
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: We have time in rush hour, traffic time and congestion,

82
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 1: fuel price rank, last mile speed rank, and fatal crash rank.

83
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 3: I'm guessing it's a three way battle between La Seattle

84
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 3: and Chicago.

85
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: Seeing the La Seattle and Chicago, I know.

86
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 2: Not.

87
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: According to this that I have in front of me,

88
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: it says in terms of time in rush hour, New

89
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: York City was number on in their rush hour, which

90
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 1: I believe I've been stuck in that.

91
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,239
Speaker 3: I was gonna choose them for the gas prices along

92
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 3: with LA.

93
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: Washington, DC is number two in time in rush hour traffic,

94
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 1: time in congestion, also New York number one, LA number three, Chicago, Chicago, Chicago.

95
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,480
Speaker 3: But are those like regular streets. I'm thinking freeways. So

96
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 3: I guess if you're stuck in the middle of New

97
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:00,080
Speaker 3: York on all those.

98
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 1: They have highways, not good ones.

99
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, true, but I guess there isn't their biggest congestion

100
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 4: right there in Manhattan.

101
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: But yeah, they have like the West Side Highway. There's

102
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: a few, you know whatever. They have a few roads.

103
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: But I hear what you're saying, not highways. Fuel price

104
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 1: rank corner to this, LA was actually number five. New

105
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: York was number two, Chicago number four, Boston number three.

106
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,359
Speaker 1: I don't see number one on it. I have the

107
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,359
Speaker 1: top I have seven cities listed, but must be some

108
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: maybe Honolulu or something like that. Last mile speed rank

109
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: and that was a tie between New York, Chicago, Boston,

110
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: and Washington, DC. And the fatal crash rank, congratulations to Houston,

111
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: you lead in fatal crashes, So I'm sure that's an

112
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: anion one and LA is number two, Danny, so we're

113
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: number two in LA We've got a ways to go

114
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:53,799
Speaker 1: to catch Houston.

115
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 4: But next and that's where we just lost d J.

116
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 4: Hayden and some of his former teammates.

117
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 1: Yes, that's right. There was a massive accident there they

118
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,559
Speaker 1: all yeah, they all got killed.

119
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, unfortunately on Houston.

120
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: Slow down, yeah, slow down a little bit.

121
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 3: Now.

122
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: I know they don't have any zoning laws, so they

123
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: have speed limit laws? Or did they get rid of those? Also,

124
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: just drive however fast you want. I don't know. Now

125
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: speak mention New York. They say New York drivers spent

126
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 1: at least two hundred and thirty six hours in traffic

127
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 1: last year and on average. But how about this. Now,

128
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: my brother lives in Manhattan and soon New York there's lawsuits.

129
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 1: But if the lawsuits go away, drivers would have to

130
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: pay a surcharge to enter Manhattan of fifteen dollars. Fifteen

131
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: dollars is how much you do just to have the

132
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: privilege of driving into Manhattan. Wow, what if you live

133
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: in Manhattan? How would that work? Every time you go home?

134
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 1: You have to pay fifteen bucks. Trucks would have to

135
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: pay more. Taxi drivers would They would not pay fifteen bucks,

136
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: but they paid dollar twenty five surcharge. They make the

137
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,679
Speaker 1: passengers pay that, and Uber and Lyft drivers two fifty

138
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: surcharges that would ride to the would bounce over the

139
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: to the passengers. Screw them. That's what I say. You

140
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: should not pay to enter a part of a town

141
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 1: like that. It's it's stupid. I oh, you need the body.

142
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: You find a different way to get the money, Okay,

143
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: find a different way to get the money. Well, Christmas

144
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: is coming up, Danny and people getting their Christmas trees.

145
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: I didn't know this. Do you know? There are three

146
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: US National Forests that will allow you to go in there,

147
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,079
Speaker 1: much like Chevy Chase did in that iconic movie back

148
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: in the day, and chop down a tree and make

149
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: it your own Christmas tree for ten dollars ten dollars

150
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 1: or less.

151
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 3: Can you bring your own chainsaw?

152
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: Well, I'm not sure about that, but there are a

153
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 1: number of places that you can go to and get

154
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: you know, obvious most people go to Christmas tree farms

155
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 1: at Costco or home depot or wherever. But you do

156
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: need a permit, but cost anywhere between five and ten dollars.

157
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 1: And there are actually more than forty US National forests

158
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:18,679
Speaker 1: that encourage people to act like a mountain man and

159
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 1: go out there and knock the tree down and bring

160
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,599
Speaker 1: it home. Nine of them. In where we do the

161
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: show from California on the east coast, you've got West Virginia, Vermont.

162
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: Also in the Midwest, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan. Maybe when

163
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: Co is a little older, Danny, you can get the

164
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 1: station wagon and you can go out and show them

165
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 1: how masculine you are by cutting down the tree.

166
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 4: I'm not a fan of all these people killing trees

167
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 4: now for Christmas. So I know that's not a hot

168
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 4: take or a take that people would like to hear

169
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 4: when they killed trees. But I learned that from my mom.

170
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 4: She didn't like that part of Christmas. She's like, I

171
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 4: don't like people killing these trees. And then when they're

172
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 4: done with them, they throw them in their trash back

173
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 4: behind their house. In the alley where we were in Rialito, California,

174
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 4: It's like, look at all the dead trees in the alley.

175
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: No here, I'm trying to I'm looking at the map here.

176
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 1: The closest place for us would be in Three Rivers

177
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: Sequoia National Force that you can get a Christmas tree

178
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 1: permit you imagine going in there and cutting down one

179
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 1: of those three thousand year old trees. That's our Christmas

180
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 1: though obviously those are AWF limits unless they're not. But

181
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 1: most of them are in most of the locations here

182
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 1: are in either I don't see there's any in southern California.

183
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: I don't see any in southern California. So they're all

184
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:49,320
Speaker 1: in like northern California, up around Sacramento. There's some over

185
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: near Modesto.

186
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 4: If you love Christmas, why not just get like a

187
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 4: nice fake tree with the built in lights. They even

188
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 4: come with remote controls.

189
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 1: Now, now, are you not getting a Christmas tree? Danny?

190
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 1: As an active protest.

191
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 4: My chick really likes Christmas trees and especially the gifts

192
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 4: under the tree and all that, and her stocking stuffers

193
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 4: is like a favorite of her kids. So she sets

194
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 4: all that up. But she has the fake tree with

195
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 4: the remote control lights.

196
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, there you go. Weird Al Yankovic, remember him,

197
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 1: Weird Al from back.

198
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 3: In this Yeah, he just had a birthday recently.

199
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's now attacking Spotify, says he got note he

200
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 1: got a notice from Spotify that in twenty twenty three,

201
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: eighty million people streamed weird Al songs. And you want

202
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: to take a guess how much did you see this?

203
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: How much he got paid?

204
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 3: No, this is what I didn't see this.

205
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 1: Okay, So he claims to have been responsible for eighty

206
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: million streams and this is actually this is not wold on.

207
00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: This is not even Spotify. I apologize. Hold on a second,

208
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,199
Speaker 1: I guess this is Spotify. It says the annual Spotify

209
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,559
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah. Yeah, it is Spotify. I

210
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 1: thought it was maybe Instagram, but anyway, eighty eighty million.

211
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,840
Speaker 1: I usually put this on Instagram. Eighty million streams on Spotify.

212
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: Take a guess how much that pays for a musician

213
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: like weird out.

214
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 3: Wow.

215
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,599
Speaker 4: I would say maybe a nickel stream for him. I

216
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 4: don't even know what that math is, but should be

217
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 4: a one hundred thousand. But I'm gonna guess he only

218
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 4: got a fifty thousand dollars.

219
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 1: Check well, Danny, according to Weirdo, maybe he's lying. He

220
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 1: said that he got paid twelve dollars. What. I'm not

221
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 1: a numbers guy, but that doesn't seem to add up.

222
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 1: He said enough to get myself a nice sandwich at

223
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: a restaurant. He said, twelve. How's that possible?

224
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 3: How much did they get paid per stream? Well, I'm

225
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 3: gonna look that up.

226
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know he's saying. He's talking all

227
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:04,319
Speaker 1: kinds of you know, shit about Spotify and all that.

228
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 4: Theoretically, Oh yeah, I know people pay for Spotify, So okay,

229
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 4: I was right, three to five cents per stream.

230
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. According to the interweb, the dark web here, the

231
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: world wide Web, one million streams on Spotify is worth

232
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:28,319
Speaker 1: around four thousand dollars. So if you do the math

233
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: that a weird aw should have gotten it probably did

234
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 1: get eighty thousand dollars. But to him, that's twelve dollars.

235
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,079
Speaker 3: Okay, But he was having it, gotcha, And that's why

236
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 3: I was thinking.

237
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,319
Speaker 4: Instead of one hundred thousand, he got half fifty thousand,

238
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 4: and he would be complaining.

239
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,839
Speaker 3: But twelve dollars. I wonder if he's just being sarcastic.

240
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 1: And we're the same way by the way here with

241
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: the podcast, and we cross a million downloads, we get

242
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: about four thousand. I think that's get you know, give

243
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 1: it take yep, maybe not, but yeah, I think we're

244
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 1: more than twelve dollars. Actually, I think we're the real

245
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: twelve dollars. That's where we find ourselves and this part

246
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:15,359
Speaker 1: of the math here. I'm doing this story for Jascoop,

247
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 1: who listens Jayscoop helping the Ukrainian military as he is

248
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 1: embedded as a person giving aid US ex military Jay

249
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: Scoop and he downloads this podcast and listens out there

250
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: on the front lines fighting the Russians. A story bouncing

251
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 1: around says a Russian dude who joined the army because

252
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: he needed some money. Says that he was trained by

253
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: the Russian army and the training consisted of picking things

254
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 1: like picking up sticks, and right after he got done

255
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 1: with the training of picking up sticks, they sent him

256
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: to the Ukraine to fight.

257
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 3: In the Ukraine.

258
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 1: I'm not in the military, Danny. I don't know that

259
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: that's a good strategy for the Russians. You know, I

260
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: don't think that's a particularly good strategy. But I might

261
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 1: be wrong. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe that's the way to go.

262
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 3: You know, it's like up a big stick for a weapon.

263
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: Uh, you know the story said the guy he had

264
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: tasked like picking up picking up sticks. I don't think oh,

265
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: or a weapon. This Russian soldier said he received almost

266
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 1: no training, and he was sent right to the front

267
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 1: to fight.

268
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 4: So they could build a bonfire and draw attention in

269
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 4: themselves with the smoke he was.

270
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: He was given a task of picking up branches and

271
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: theoretically first aid classes. This guy, of course, was what

272
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: do you think captured by the Ukrainian forces?

273
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 3: See he started a bonfire with those sticks.

274
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, he's probably feeling pretty good. If your choice

275
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 1: is to be shot and killed or to be captured,

276
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what you choose on that. Most people

277
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 1: might go that direction, but who knows.

278
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 4: Uh.

279
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: He said he signed up in October because the army

280
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: wouldn't would pay him more than his as a factory worker.

281
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: The job had paid him thirty thousand rubles three hundred

282
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 1: and thirty three dollars a month. The guy was making

283
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: in Russia. So hey, if we go by rubles, we're

284
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 1: making a lot of money. Oh yeah, we're ballers when

285
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 1: it comes to the rubles. Anyway, the guy said the

286
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: army paid one hundred thousand rubles a month. That's eleven

287
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: hundred dollars a month. He also pointed out since he

288
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: joined the Russian Army, his family has not received any

289
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: money that he was promised by, he claims, Russia.

290
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 3: I'm all about the rubles, baby.

291
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 1: I'm sure he can go to HR and they'll take

292
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: care of that right away, right, No problem in the

293
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 1: Russian military HR.

294
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 3: Sure they have a great HR.

295
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: You're good to go on that. You got nothing to

296
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 1: worry about, nothing to worry about, Elon Musk having a tough,

297
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: tough couple of weeks here. I don't really care. He's

298
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: super rich. He doesn't care. The cyber truck thing. So

299
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: when the cyber truck, have you seen? These don't look good?

300
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 1: To me? Am I bad person? That's an unpopular opinion.

301
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 1: I don't I'm not impressed.

302
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 3: They don't look I'm kind of with you on that.

303
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, So the cyber truck came out. Now, if he

304
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: wants to send me one for free, I might change

305
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 1: my opinion. But the cyber truck, when he announced it,

306
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:18,119
Speaker 1: he said the price point for the cyber truck would

307
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 1: be thirty nine thousand dollars I believe was the number

308
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,719
Speaker 1: that he had given out. And now he is actually

309
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: almost doubled. It turns out he's actually almost doubled the

310
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 1: asking price from what he originally said, and people.

311
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:38,639
Speaker 3: Are pto triangular looking.

312
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:43,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, it just doesn't look like something that's all that

313
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 1: great to me. And it looks like a video, like

314
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,439
Speaker 1: a computer diagram from like the early nineties of what

315
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: a truck should like look like. Remember those old cars

316
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 1: we used to play around with those things back in

317
00:17:55,920 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: the or the computer programs that would would show that.

318
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 1: So anyway, he announced the man behind Tesla Elon Musk.

319
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: He announced all his big fanfare. They had a big event.

320
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,159
Speaker 1: They had to showed a video of truck racing a

321
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,159
Speaker 1: portion and winning and it was a big deal and

322
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,399
Speaker 1: all that stuff and yeah, and now it's it's gonna

323
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: be over sixty thousand dollars after Originally he was like,

324
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 1: you know, it's gonna be thirty something, but now yeah,

325
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,639
Speaker 1: so good times. Anyway, let's get to the mailbag. What

326
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 1: do you say, Danny, mailbag? Time you ready for the mailbag?

327
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:33,640
Speaker 3: Let's go.

328
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: It's this mail bag. Thank you, ohio al. These are

329
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 1: actual letters, by actual listeners. We could do as many

330
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 1: of them as can alf the Analytics Department. Rights In

331
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 1: from the Analytics apartment says, the question may be a

332
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 1: little too inside radio, but I'll ask because I want

333
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 1: to make sure that I'm doing my duty to the

334
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: fullest as a member of the malimlitia. Is it better

335
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 1: to download the Fifth Hour and listen download and listen

336
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: to the Fifth Hour podcast from the feed that piggybacks

337
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 1: on the Ben Mahlor show podcast stream. Obviously listening to

338
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 1: both would help your numbers twice as much, But I've

339
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,159
Speaker 1: always listened to the Fifth Hour feed somehow, thinking management

340
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,879
Speaker 1: would be more impressed by an additional audience. Does it

341
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 1: even matter what are we doing here? That's from alf

342
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 1: in the analytical department, the analytics department.

343
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 3: I think it all goes to the same total.

344
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, but sometimes the key you do need to subscribe

345
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,919
Speaker 1: to the fifth Hour page because sometimes stuff doesn't get set.

346
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: We might do an extra podcast that doesn't get sent

347
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:55,160
Speaker 1: to the main Mallard feed.

348
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 3: Well, the other thing is too you want to give

349
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 3: Ben's live show a review on Apple podcast, and then

350
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,639
Speaker 3: the Fifth Hour podcast it's own separate review on this

351
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 3: page right here. Yeah.

352
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, So there's a lot of work. It's not easy

353
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: to be in the Mallad militia. There's a lot of

354
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 1: busy body work.

355
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 4: Noway, it takes about five minutes of your life unless

356
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,159
Speaker 4: you're one of the crazy p ones who listens for

357
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 4: a whole day and doesn't even sleep.

00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,120

362
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 4: six days with your headphones on listening to Ben Mallard like.

363
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 1: Wayne from Soufee. I did it for mallor Wayne, the

365
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 1: also sent me a cooking hack. I thank you for that. Alf.

366
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: A way to make this is cool. You can turn

367
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,639
Speaker 1: a muffin pan upside down to make cookie bowl Sundays.

368
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 1: Oh that's a pretty good hack. I might try that one.

369
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: I love eating the cookies just the way they are,

370
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 1: but putting a scoop of vanilla ice creaming there wouldn't

371
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: go that bad. Fred from Spring Texas right, Since it says, greetings, gentlemen,

372
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,520
Speaker 1: what age do you both employ to keep track of

373
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,120
Speaker 1: you're very full schedule? You have a paper wall, calendar,

374
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 1: iPad as, smart watches, planners, some other device.

375
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 3: There you go.

376
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 1: That's from Fred in Spring Texas, who's been very consistent

377
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 1: with the email thank you for that. Fred. So I

378
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 1: do have an Apple Watch that I use, but I

379
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 1: mostly use it for timing. In fact, when I'm doing

380
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 1: the podcast, we try to stay around a half an

381
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 1: hour and I usually have a little timer that keeps

382
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,880
Speaker 1: track of everything. At least in theory it keeps tracking everything.

383
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: But as far as like the schedule, my schedule is

384
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: pretty consistent with the radio show. I know Sunday through

385
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 1: Thursday I have that. I have the TV show, so

386
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: I know what days I have to work on that,

387
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 1: and then I obviously this podcast on the weekend. So yeah,

388
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,159
Speaker 1: it's pretty insistent. Don't changing. Sometimes I'll go to games,

389
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 1: It'll change up the timing a little bit. Like today

390
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,440
Speaker 1: I'm going to the Rams game, so it's gonna change

391
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:08,880
Speaker 1: things up a little bit the way I get ready

392
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 1: for the show, but not too much. And Danny, what

393
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: about you?

394
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 3: Stamen's you.

395
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 4: I'm part of a routine that's very busy, but I

396
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 4: know exactly where I'm supposed to be and when I'm

397
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 4: supposed to be there, and when I can sneak in

398
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 4: a little nap in between all of the.

399
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:28,440

Speaker 4: Still don't know how co is going to do when

438
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:39,800

Speaker 3: By the.

441
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 4: I need well that one thing we've noticed that he

442
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 4: really hates. He doesn't like when it's windy outside, Like,

443
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 4: if the wind is hitting his face, he makes a

444
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 4: weird noise and he like buries his head.

445
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 3: He doesn't he doesn't like the wind.

446
00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,119
Speaker 1: I wonder what the hell is that?

447
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, he does not like it.

448
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 4: So when it was really windy that day, we covered

449
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,400
Speaker 4: him up and had him in his stroller and we're like, yeah,

450
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 4: he probably wouldn't like it.

451
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 3: If we pull him into a cold pool right now.

452
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, you want him to enjoy the water, not grow

453
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 1: up hating the water where he wants to then destroy you,

454
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 1: you know.

455
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 4: Because you yeah, exactly the way we were all scared

456
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:22,439
Speaker 4: of Jaws when we were growing up.

457
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 1: That's right. Yeah, Well, if you take the Universal Studios tour,

458
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: don't they have the Jaws area at the Universal Studios Tours?

459
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 3: Yeah?

460
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 1: How long will they keep that? At some point they

461
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: have to get rid of it, right, They have a

462
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: little pond there and the robot shark.

463
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's been the same since we were kids.

464
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: That's an old movie.

465
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,399
Speaker 4: Now, different parts of that tour have changed, obviously, but

466
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 4: there are a couple different areas that have always remained

467
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 4: the same, and that's one of them.

468
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:51,959
Speaker 1: All right, Kevin and Kansas, very since sys you're Ben

469
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 1: and Danny g high school basketball kicks off tonight in Kansas,

470
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,199
Speaker 1: and that means pep bands play fight songs and the

471
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 1: crowd sings a long about how their school is the

472
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 1: greatest and their team is the toughest. You either of

473
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: you remember the worst your high school fight songs? Did

474
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,679
Speaker 1: your yours go along with the college tune like on

475
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 1: Wisconsin or the Notre Dame Victory March? What were your

476
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 1: school's mascots? And he says, go midgets. He says that

477
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: was and still is Kevin in Kansas's mascot. So there's

478
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 1: a little bubble there, Danny, where you're able to have

479
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 1: the midget as the mascot, and the Wokesters have not

480
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 1: found that part of Kansas.

481
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 4: Wow, that's where that little Kansas City Chiefs fan probably lives.

482
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that was quite the start face. Yeah, oh yeah,

483
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: red and black face of blackface racist according to certain

484
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 1: according to dead Spin, Yeah exactly.

485
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,879
Speaker 3: I didn't What was your mascot?

486
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,880
Speaker 1: Well, I don't remember the fight song. I remember having

487
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: to sing it, but I I just mumbled, you know,

488
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,399
Speaker 1: you know, we were just kind of mumbled, like I

489
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:09,879
Speaker 1: knew what I was saying, and I didn't really know

490
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 1: what I was saying. But I went to a couple

491
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 1: high schools. I went to high school where the mascot

492
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,600
Speaker 1: was the Volcaros, which is a Mexican cowboy, and then

493
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 1: the other one was the truck yes right, yes, right,

494
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,400
Speaker 1: and then the Trojans. He was the trophy. That's kind

495
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: of whatever. There's a bunch of Trojans.

496
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 4: Let's see high school Bulldogs. And then where I did

497
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 4: college radio Warriors.

498
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 1: Oh well, at Saddleback it was the Gauchos, but they

499
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 1: got rid of that because that's offensive. I didn't know

500
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: a gaucho was offensive, and I didn't learn that until

501
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,640
Speaker 1: some idiots at Saddleback College decided to change the name

502
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 1: a few years ago. I think they're called the Bobcats now,

503
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 1: which is who cares. I'm good on that. Enjoy I know,

504
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:57,200
Speaker 1: enjoy watching the midgets there.

505
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I don't remember the fight song either. I

506
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 4: do remember being in the gym and mumbling half of

507
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 4: the song exactly like what you did. I think that's

508
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:07,880
Speaker 4: what most of us did.

509
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 1: That was my nickname, Mumbles Mallar. I don't know how

510
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 1: I got in the radio Mumbles Mallard. This guy from

511
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 1: masshole Mickey. Speaking of mumbles, masshole, Mickey says, Ben and

512
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 1: Danny heath bar or score bar. That's a to I

513
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: go heath bar.

514
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 4: You, Oh yeah, that's easy heath bar. When I did

515
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 4: eat sugar, or if I ever get to eat it again.

516
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 3: I love toffee, Yeah, toffee solid.

517
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,959
Speaker 1: It's hard to go wrong with toffee. So masshole Mickey there,

518
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: he says. In the Commonwealth in Massachusetts, the Marina chef

519
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 1: haven't heard from him in a while, He says, do

520
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 1: you slowly push everything? You start to finish at the

521
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 1: last second. By the way, Marina chef says he is

522
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: no longer on X. I don't know why, but he

523
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 1: is no longer on X. So I try to get

524
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 1: stuff done early. But normally what happens is if I

525
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: have extra time, I just keep working, which is a

526
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: bad habit I had. So I really should start things

527
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 1: later and get things done right on time, but I

528
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 1: usually just work up until the point, like when the

529
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: show starts and things like that.

530
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 3: Danny, well, for Covino and Rich.

531
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 4: I do the show prep every morning because I do

532
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 4: not like the feeling of driving into the studios unprepared.

533
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 4: I already have sponsor scripts and game show notes and

534
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:27,959
Speaker 4: trivia and all that stuff prepared well in advance so

535
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 4: that I can feel comfortable driving into work.

536
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: I do way too much preparation for the radio show.

537
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 1: It's much better to go that way than the other way,

538
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 1: where you don't.

539
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 3: Yeah. Can you imagine a producer ben like getting your

540
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 3: Mountain of Money trivia board ready during the show.

541
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: Oh, that would never That would never happen. And my

542
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: guys always get there at least two and a half

543
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 1: hours before the show.

544
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 3: Yeah.

545
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 4: And if it's too like Cowherd type show meetings, right,

546
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:00,720
Speaker 4: show meeting after words too.

547
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, And what will happen is I'll get sent the

548
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 1: scripts the monologues, and then I'll send them back and

549
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 1: they'll have to rewrite certain parts of the monologue. And

550
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 1: then I'll roll in there and I'll have the teleprompter

551
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: and I'll be.

552
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 4: And what's really nice is I'm busy, like your busy

553
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 4: TV day. They do all that prep work so you

554
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 4: can just roll in after your production.

555
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 1: No, it's really kind of them, and I didn't think

556
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 1: they would do it. And they said, yes, whatever you need,

557
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: we love you, we really want to help you out.

558
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: And so yeah, we'll just do all that extra work.

559
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: But anyway, Murray in Saskatoon, just love san Saskatoon.

560
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 3: I know you do, Saskatoon. Just get it out of

561
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 3: your system.

562
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: He had a question about the radio show, so he says,

563
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 1: is there internal discussion on the Mallor radio show to

564
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: change the name of the Iowa Minute to the Iowa Hour.

565
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: I think I'm going to bring the hammer down soon

566
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 1: on Iowa Sam. I think we're going to cut back

567
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,120
Speaker 1: on the Iowa Minute being thirty minutes. I think it's

568
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 1: gotten too carried away with ads.

569
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 3: I don't want.

570
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: I don't know if we're talking about that on the podcast.

571
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll talk more about it next week. But I think, Danny,

572
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 1: I'm going to become a death spot. I'm going to

573
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 1: become a hard oh and I am not going to

574
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 1: allow Iowa Sam to hijack the very valuable overnight hours

575
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 1: with his nonsense about Iowa and the Iowa Minute and

576
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 1: all that. I'm going to go draconian. I Am going

577
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 1: to become an authoritarian, a tyrannical is what I'm going

578
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: to do. Danny, I got to go. I got a

579
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 1: cut back on the Iowa Minute.

580
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 4: I have to pummeler up producers Ben Mallor, I feel

581
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 4: you on that, and I warned you about Iowa Sam.

582
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 3: You were warned, he.

583
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: Did tell me at least thirty minutes. At least thirty minutes.

584
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 1: But I'll be the drill sergeant. I will be the

Speaker 4: Yeah, it's gonna be a stress free Sunday for me

589
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,520

Speaker 3: I need every team in the AFC to lose today,

595
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 3: how about that?

596
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,680
Speaker 1: Just need people to keep their hands to themselves is

597
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 1: what you need.

598
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 4: That's what you need in AFC versus AFC teams ended

599
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 4: a tie.

600
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 1: Please, Yeah, just have a bunch of ties and that

601
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 1: helps the Raiders out. If everyone ties, we're good to go.

602
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: Have a wonderful rest of your Sunday again. I'll be

603
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 1: back tonight break down that classic Eagle forty nine er game.

604
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: What a great matchup that is going to be and

605
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 1: I'll be at the Rams game. Not a great matchup,

606
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 1: but I'll be free loading and watching the Eagles game

607
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: on my computer, hoping the RAMPR people don't get upset

608
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 1: with me when they walk by. And I'm not paying

609
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 1: attention too much the RAM game. But what I do

610
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: is I'll have it on my laptop. I'll watch the

611
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 1: game I really want to watch, but then I'll when

612
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 1: they go to commercial between plays all then watch the

613
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: RAM game. So I'm able to multitask that way. And

614
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:00,920
