He's the last remnants 0:00:09.200 --> 0:00:12.480 of the old Republic, a soul fashion of fairness. He 0:00:12.600 --> 0:00:15.520 treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the 0:00:15.640 --> 0:00:19.480 rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow, it's the clearinghouse 0:00:19.520 --> 0:00:23.200 of hot takes. Break free for something special. The Fifth 0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:29.440 Hour with Ben Maller starts right now in. 0:00:29.240 --> 0:00:35.880 The a every way, welcome in. It is the Fifth Hour, 0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:38.519 you know that already with Ben Maller and Danny G 0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:42.920 Radio and we're hanging out. You're like, what are you doing? 0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:45.920 It's Saturday. You shouldn't be working now. We work every day, Danny, 0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:51.600 no days off, no days off. It's either live radio 0:00:51.680 --> 0:00:54.320 during the week or a little podcast fun. 0:00:54.760 --> 0:00:55.960 Yep on the weekends. 0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:58.760 And this is the part of the sports calendar where 0:00:58.800 --> 0:01:01.880 the weak asses who try to do sports go run 0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:05.520 and hide, and the strength of the sports backbone of 0:01:05.520 --> 0:01:09.759 America come out and not only cover baseball but also 0:01:09.959 --> 0:01:11.400 professional marble shooting. 0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:19.120 Damn right, And I am never ever concerned. I remember 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:22.240 when I first started in radio, and this time of 0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:26.200 the year, guys would freak out. They'd have anxiety attacks. 0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:28.160 Every radio station I worked at when I was a 0:01:28.200 --> 0:01:30.680 young kid. I started in the business was in nineteen 0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:34.240 it's like nineteen twenty, twenty one, twenty two, twenty. These 0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:35.960 guys would be shitting bricks. 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:37.600 What are we gonna do? 0:01:38.240 --> 0:01:41.480 There's nothing going on, you know. But at least back 0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:44.680 in those days there was interest in baseball more now 0:01:44.760 --> 0:01:47.559 than now. You know, they did talk baseball on the radio, 0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:52.080 but they'd always go back to the default answer, which 0:01:52.240 --> 0:01:57.760 was Pete Rose, should he be reinstated into baseball? Oh? 0:01:57.760 --> 0:01:59.760 That was always the go to. 0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:02.400 They had to make up their own fake drama. 0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:06.080 Yeah, well, it's like the news shows in those days. 0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:09.920 They did abortion. I guess that's still a thing all 0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:14.519 these years later. And guns that was also So there's 0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:17.240 like certain boilerplate topics that you do when you do 0:02:17.880 --> 0:02:21.360 a radio show. But yet it's so easy, not easy, 0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:23.959 but it's so much easier than it had been now 0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:29.079 because just about every professional athlete is feeding the content 0:02:29.160 --> 0:02:32.440 kitty by saying stupid things or doing stupid things, and 0:02:32.520 --> 0:02:36.959 so we didn't have that before, not this time of 0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:41.080 the year. So it's been pretty good on this podcast. 0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:46.800 The Saturday Special. We've got Big John, the scene of 0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:51.960 the crime, fifteen point two miles, Phrase of the week, 0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:54.840 and Pop goes the culture. That's a lot of content. 0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:57.320 We're gonna have to get through it quickly, so we 0:02:57.320 --> 0:02:58.960 will attempt to get through everything. I always put too 0:02:59.040 --> 0:03:00.560 much in the show. If you noticed that, Danny, have 0:03:00.639 --> 0:03:01.200 you noticed that? 0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:05.040 Yes, it works out well because you listen to these 0:03:05.080 --> 0:03:08.120 in order, hopefully, and it all just flows over like 0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:08.840 a waterfall. 0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:10.120 Yeah. 0:03:10.480 --> 0:03:13.440 I try to shove fifteen pounds of crap and a 0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:16.120 two pound bag is what I try to do. So Barbi, 0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:19.560 this life of mal or life of Danny g is 0:03:19.600 --> 0:03:23.800 what we often do on the Saturday podcast. I last weekend, 0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:27.520 I had dinner with a buddy of mine and yesterday 0:03:27.560 --> 0:03:31.480 we told the story about the cheeseburger in Paradise. And 0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:34.600 you didn't hear that story. You can go back, So I. 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:35.960 Go dirty Burger. 0:03:36.320 --> 0:03:41.240 Yeah exactly. So my wife was working and I had 0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:44.240 the option. I could have stayed home and made some 0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:46.560 food by myself. And I was like, my wife's like 0:03:46.600 --> 0:03:48.840 you should go out, you should you know, go you know, 0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:51.640 meet your friends or whatever. So it's like okay, you know, 0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:54.440 and I called a few people up and they're like, 0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:56.640 I can't go do my wife won't let me go, 0:03:56.960 --> 0:03:58.760 or you know, you know that kind of thing, you know, 0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:01.880 things you get when you're a middle aged man asking 0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.640 friends to go to dinner on a Saturday. So whatever. 0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:07.600 So I went down my roll the decks and I 0:04:07.680 --> 0:04:09.360 found a friend I used to work with in Rady 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:13.280 who's been on this podcast. Who you know, the Prince 0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:16.839 of Darkness, the original Prince of Darkness, Lee Ah Kleine. 0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:20.200 So I met Lee at the one of our old 0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:21.600 places who I used to hang out with Lee all 0:04:21.600 --> 0:04:23.719 the time when I was a young guy, because no 0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:25.400 women would hang out with me, but Lee would hang 0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:25.800 out with me. 0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:29.000 And we used to still a dark cloud that follows 0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:30.520 over the top of him as he walks. 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:33.960 Yes, oh, we'll get to that in a minute. So 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:37.520 I met my friend Lee. I haven't seen him since April, 0:04:37.600 --> 0:04:40.440 and we check out, you know, we check check check 0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:42.880 out our and we catch up. As what I'm trying 0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:46.360 to say, we catch up every few months. And so 0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:50.000 we go to old Stomgres So I used to live 0:04:51.560 --> 0:04:54.279 kind of near If you're familiar with the geography of 0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:57.720 Los Angeles, I used to live right near where the 0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:02.719 Grove is Farmer's Market in LA and Lee lives in 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:05.800 the South Bay kind of that part of LA in 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:10.080 that area. So halfway we determined was Calver City. So 0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:13.159 we would often meet in Culver City because it was halfway. 0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:16.039 There's a movie studio there. It's like a movie it's 0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:19.080 like a movie TV time. So we met in Culver 0:05:19.200 --> 0:05:23.760 City at one of our old stomping grounds, Johnny's Pastrami, 0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:28.040 which is a legendary pastrami place there and they've been 0:05:28.080 --> 0:05:31.520 around forever. And so it's Saturday night. Now. I had 0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:35.000 actually gone to the Angel game prior to going to 0:05:35.160 --> 0:05:38.200 Johnny's Pastrami. So I met my friend Lee after the game. 0:05:38.640 --> 0:05:41.120 So we get there and we're debating what the order. 0:05:41.400 --> 0:05:43.359 Now you have two options. Now we've been there so 0:05:43.480 --> 0:05:46.280 much we know the entire menu. We also remember when 0:05:46.279 --> 0:05:49.240 it was actually affordable to eat a Johnny's pastrami, which 0:05:49.320 --> 0:05:52.880 was I think twenty years ago. Anyway, so whatever, doing 0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:57.600 this a long time. So we decide, I'm like I'm 0:05:57.640 --> 0:06:00.600 getting I'm going pastrami. You go to Johnny's astrom It's 0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:02.680 in the name. I'm gonna get Astromi. But they also 0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:06.200 make really good burgers, and so Lee's like, I'm getting 0:06:07.000 --> 0:06:11.080 the Big John. That's what I'm getting, a Big John, 0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:13.760 because that's a really good it's like a double burger. 0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:15.920 It's it's pretty big. So and they give you other 0:06:15.960 --> 0:06:18.719 stuff on the side. All right, So we order the 0:06:18.760 --> 0:06:22.640 food and the waitress is nice. You know, they're not 0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:25.760 that busy whatever. There's a little fire pits so you 0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:29.479 can sit outside. We sat outside. There's not much inside seating. 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:32.840 It's an old school diner. So we're waiting for the 0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:36.520 food comes. There's a basket of fries in the middle 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:41.800 community property. There's pastrami on my side, same as I remember. 0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:47.000 And then Lee gets the burger and it looks totally 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:50.760 different than what it had looked like. Now you have 0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:53.480 two options. You can either just eat the burger and 0:06:53.520 --> 0:07:00.360 say that's fine, or you can raise Holy Hell, like 0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:04.480 this is a war crime and you have just you know, 0:07:04.560 --> 0:07:07.320 you need to go to Dante's Inferno. What do you 0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:10.600 think my friend Lee did, And you know him and 0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:13.040 you've had some situations with him in the past, what 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:14.000 do you think he did? 0:07:14.640 --> 0:07:18.000 Yeah, well, you know my experience with him. 0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:20.440 I don't think the listeners really know, but the first 0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:23.520 time I met him, he just made racist joke after 0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:28.360 racist Mexican joke. And it turns out I'm Spanish and Sicilian, 0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:32.440 I'm not Mexican, But anyways, that doesn't matter to a 0:07:32.480 --> 0:07:35.960 guy like him. And he's like really loud, and some 0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:38.840 of it's playful. So I can see, you know, at 0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:41.400 the at your Christmas party, we're kind of laughing, like 0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:45.480 this guy needs to drink another one. But I'm going 0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:49.040 to say, in a situation like this, and he's already 0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:53.600 probably in a bad mood for overpaying for a burger 0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:56.600 that would have been affordable twenty years ago, so he 0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:59.600 probably went and raised hell at the front. 0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:03.280 Yeah, so it's it's a total ship show now that Lee. Uh. 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:06.360 The way he breaks the ice, he's he's older. And 0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:08.360 the way he breaks the ice he is, uh to 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:10.880 make offensive comments. That's how he breaks the ice at 0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:14.160 social eng so, uh, don't take it personally, Danny. He 0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:16.200 does it everywhere. It's very uncomfortable. 0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:19.720 But anyway, so he called somebody a beaner there too 0:08:19.760 --> 0:08:21.480 at the restaurant racist. 0:08:22.160 --> 0:08:28.080 Uh No, there was no but but but anyway, so whatever, anyway, Lee, Uh, 0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:29.800 you know, he's he's complaining. 0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:32.000 He's a lovable older guy. He's kind of like your 0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:33.040 racist grandfather. 0:08:33.360 --> 0:08:37.880 Yeah, exactly. So anyway, he's complaining to the to the waitress. 0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:40.880 So she can't you know, they come back, how's your food? 0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:44.400 Which is a rhetorical question, she just did. If you 0:08:44.480 --> 0:08:48.720 ask that, if you just you assume great, nobody's gonna 0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:51.160 say no. And but he did. He's like, that's just 0:08:51.200 --> 0:08:53.800 this is not a big John. You know, this is 0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:55.160 not this is not what I ordered. 0:08:55.280 --> 0:08:56.280 This is a little John. 0:08:56.880 --> 0:08:59.440 And uh so she looks at the burger and she 0:08:59.520 --> 0:09:01.840 kind of ex amz is it? And she said, well, no, 0:09:01.880 --> 0:09:03.960 that's a that's a big John. And he says, no, 0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:07.600 it's not. I've been coming here for you know, thirty years, 0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:10.600 and I've had this burger, you know, hundreds of times, 0:09:10.720 --> 0:09:14.360 and that ain't the big Johnt. And she she looks 0:09:14.400 --> 0:09:17.480 at it again and she examines the burger and she says, 0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:21.160 that's a big John. And then here, you know, we're 0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:23.360 going back and forth and he's like, well, no, that's 0:09:23.400 --> 0:09:25.679 not what I paid for. I don't give me the menu. 0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:28.720 Where's the menu? So he's like pointing at the menu, 0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:31.760 and she says, well and then he's like, oh, how 0:09:31.800 --> 0:09:34.600 long you worked here? And the and the waitress is like, well, 0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:36.600 I worked here like four years or something like, well, 0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:38.640 I've been coming here thirty right. So he's going on 0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:41.520 and on, and I'm like, I'm like, oh, mercy, get 0:09:41.520 --> 0:09:44.360 me out of here, you know, I am. And then 0:09:44.480 --> 0:09:48.520 so so they're going back and forth, and then of 0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:50.880 course it's, uh, you know, where's the owner, you know, 0:09:50.960 --> 0:09:53.079 where's the manager, you know that kind of thing, whether 0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:55.240 they're not here. You know, it's, uh, you know, I 0:09:55.240 --> 0:09:58.120 can't do anything they're not here. And then Lee's like, oh, 0:09:58.160 --> 0:09:59.839 of course you can't do anything. You know, that's the 0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:03.160 the world these days and all that stuff. So we 0:10:03.200 --> 0:10:07.480 went back and forth and he finally just gave up, 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:11.520 which is shocking, and said, fine, I'll eat the burger 0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:14.240 and I will never come here again. 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:19.920 Now, more importantly, how was your pastrami? 0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:23.360 Where it was great? It was wonderful, And it was 0:10:23.400 --> 0:10:26.680 good because if I had given my pastrami back, they 0:10:26.720 --> 0:10:29.120 would have spit Loogi's all over the pastrami if I'd 0:10:29.160 --> 0:10:30.920 given the food back. But I did not do that, 0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:35.320 and fortunately everything was all right. But yeah, it was 0:10:36.080 --> 0:10:39.560 it was uncomfortable and I've had my shared Danny of 0:10:39.800 --> 0:10:45.679 uncomfortable situations, and I try to not make a scene. 0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:50.640 I I attempt to be like a wall, like a 0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:54.480 plant on a wall, A wallflower is what I try 0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:59.040 to be, just in the background there. But occasionally I 0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:03.120 get dragged in to these situations. So the Big John. 0:11:04.000 --> 0:11:06.720 But it backfired a little bit because by the time 0:11:06.760 --> 0:11:09.640 he finally ate it, after he gave up, it was 0:11:09.679 --> 0:11:10.480 probably cold. 0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:13.800 Yes, yes it was. I will have more on the 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:18.520 coldness at another point, possibly this podcast. I might even 0:11:18.559 --> 0:11:22.880 have it on this podcast. Johnny SPASTROMI was the scene 0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:25.559 of the crime, but not the scene of the crime, 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:26.880 if you know what I'm saying, Dan. 0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:31.240 Yeah, it sounds like a couple of overpriced places are 0:11:31.240 --> 0:11:34.240 going to be mentioned on this Saturday edition of Our 0:11:34.280 --> 0:11:39.280 Fifth Hour. If you remember back to two baseball seasons ago, 0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:43.080 and I spoke about it on this very podcast. The 0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:45.959 WiFi and I at the time, I think we were engaged. 0:11:46.440 --> 0:11:50.400 We took the family to Opening Night at Dodger Stadium, 0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:55.000 and we were so excited. The seats were pricey, but 0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:58.800 you kind of expect that for Opening day slash Opening Night. 0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:03.160 What we did expect was the price of parking, the 0:12:03.960 --> 0:12:08.280 overpriced food, which you know it's been overpriced in the past, 0:12:08.320 --> 0:12:11.880 but now it's gone up tenfold. We wound up that 0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:14.960 night spending nine hundred and fifty. 0:12:14.679 --> 0:12:17.240 Dollars, Blank my blank, and blank you. 0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:22.040 A family of five for Dodger Stadium nine hundred and 0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:22.920 fifty dollars. 0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:24.920 Yes, so reminds you when I was a kid and 0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:27.120 they used to have commercials the greatest deal in town. 0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:30.520 Dodger Baseball got out. Family of four could come out 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:35.079 for thirty dollars. Okay, yep. 0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:38.760 Obviously left a really bad taste in our mouth. We 0:12:39.480 --> 0:12:44.319 have not gone back to the ballpark since because that 0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:48.320 we can't afford that, and it's easier and better to 0:12:48.440 --> 0:12:50.880 just watch on our big flat screen in the living room. 0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:58.120 But somebody offered me some seats, got four comp seats 0:12:58.600 --> 0:13:02.600 and it was will smithlehead night. But I have an 0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:06.480 eight month pregnant woman who needs to get as close 0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:10.320 to the seats as possible. So the first security person 0:13:10.440 --> 0:13:14.280 told us where to go for special parking that would 0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:17.360 put us right near our section. And when we finally 0:13:17.400 --> 0:13:19.760 get around the stadium, it's the back end of the 0:13:19.800 --> 0:13:24.000 stadium where you can see the La City Skyline. Two 0:13:24.600 --> 0:13:29.520 rude security guards later, we finally found Bugs, who listens 0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:33.040 to this podcast bat right Bugs Bugs? And you know 0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:36.560 why because after I introduced myself and talked to Bugs, 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:39.440 I told him all about the fifth hour, and he 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:41.760 promised he was going to tune in on his phone. 0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:44.040 Right, And I said, give him a shout out. He 0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:44.840 is the man. 0:13:45.440 --> 0:13:49.840 He runs the parking lot basically, so all the radio 0:13:49.920 --> 0:13:52.520 calls were coming to him, and so he put us. 0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:53.760 In parking spot twenty. 0:13:54.320 --> 0:13:56.800 He stood there and blocked the traffic while he let 0:13:56.800 --> 0:13:58.080 me back into the spot. 0:13:58.679 --> 0:13:59.680 It was beautiful. 0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:01.920 But then when we got out of the car and 0:14:01.960 --> 0:14:05.800 we started walking into the stadium, another security guard was like, 0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:09.680 oh yeah, you have to walk like three blocks that way. 0:14:11.000 --> 0:14:15.160 So here's my pregnant wife waddling like a big penguin 0:14:15.840 --> 0:14:17.720 and I'm like, okay, let's go slow. 0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:18.760 We're not in a hurry. 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:23.000 First forty thousand get this bobblehead. But we'll definitely be 0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:26.520 part of that first forty thousand. So we get in there, 0:14:26.560 --> 0:14:28.960 we get our bobbleheads, and you know how it is 0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:31.960 with bobblehead night, What a thrill to hold that up. 0:14:32.600 --> 0:14:36.360 It's like you know Lion King where they're holding the 0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:37.760 next king up to the sky? 0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:40.560 Heid you Jesus. 0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:44.800 Instead of nine hundred and fifty dollars I paid dinner, 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:46.240 I paid parking. 0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:48.400 What do you think it costs this time? 0:14:49.480 --> 0:14:53.520 Well, I actually happened to be at that game Tuesday night, Danny. 0:14:53.560 --> 0:14:55.680 I didn't know you were there. What I would have 0:14:55.720 --> 0:15:00.280 said low to you and your wife. But I did 0:15:00.320 --> 0:15:03.480 walk around and I looked at the concessions, and my 0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:06.480 my eyeballs literally popped out of my head when I 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:10.680 looked at the price of the food. So is you? 0:15:10.920 --> 0:15:12.960 Your wife? Was it just and who? 0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:14.360 And two of the kids? 0:15:14.720 --> 0:15:19.680 The kids? And then the kids are they're cha teenagers? Okay, 0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:25.320 so they eat a lot. I'm gonna say, for all 0:15:25.400 --> 0:15:30.120 four of you food parking, did anyone get a souvenir? 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:34.320 Uh? Just a clear carry bag for my wifey? 0:15:35.000 --> 0:15:36.880 Did you buy that outside the stadium? One of those 0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:38.640 guys hacked hawking them outside of the station. 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:40.480 No. I bought it inside the gift shop. 0:15:40.920 --> 0:15:43.600 Okay, so that costs you a lot more money. I'm 0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:44.479 gonna say. 0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:49.920 Two point fifty really good, guess all right? 0:15:50.400 --> 0:15:53.680 Two and twenty five dollars for the whole night. 0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:56.280 All right, there you go. So as long as you 0:15:56.280 --> 0:15:58.760 don't have to buy the tickets, you're you're, you're okay. 0:15:58.800 --> 0:16:00.000 I guess that's what I was saying. 0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:02.360 And I want to get some more seats and give 0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:05.560 them away to our listeners that are in southern California, 0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:08.120 because how in the hell can you bring your family 0:16:08.200 --> 0:16:11.760 nowadays to a ballpark and pay for all of that. 0:16:12.480 --> 0:16:16.680 No, it's it's insane. It's absolutely insane. And uh yeah, 0:16:17.160 --> 0:16:19.360 it's what did you eat? By the way, what did 0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:21.280 you did you get the chicken? There's a bunch of 0:16:21.360 --> 0:16:24.240 new restaurants at Dodger Stadium, like, there's all kinds. 0:16:24.040 --> 0:16:27.000 Of I found my way down to level two for 0:16:27.120 --> 0:16:32.280 the food. It was like a Mexican spot racist carne 0:16:32.360 --> 0:16:37.800 asada fries as well as nachos, and then a couple 0:16:37.800 --> 0:16:41.280 of Dodger dogs and oh and a couple of carnea 0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:42.280 sada tacos. 0:16:42.600 --> 0:16:45.160 See, all right, let me know the next time you 0:16:45.320 --> 0:16:47.720 because I have a hookup with the Dodger Dogs. I 0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:50.240 can get your free Dodger dogs. I can do that. 0:16:50.240 --> 0:16:51.320 That's about all I can get you. 0:16:52.680 --> 0:16:55.640 Yeah, you have a long trench coat with Dodger dogs 0:16:55.640 --> 0:16:56.920 stuffed inside the pocket. 0:16:57.360 --> 0:17:00.040 Yeah, I know I know a guy, all right, and 0:17:00.360 --> 0:17:02.360 you know I know a guy that would would help 0:17:02.400 --> 0:17:06.320 me with that. But that's about it. Yeah, all right, 0:17:06.359 --> 0:17:06.960 Well there you go. 0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:10.480 So you go much much better experience. 0:17:11.040 --> 0:17:14.000 And we were like, wow, that was nice back after 0:17:14.080 --> 0:17:17.240 a two year protest. It was like we were Oakland 0:17:17.280 --> 0:17:18.760 A's fans for two years. 0:17:20.080 --> 0:17:22.080 Yeah, I have not been out that much. I think 0:17:22.080 --> 0:17:23.920 I'm gonna get out there more now. You know, they're 0:17:23.960 --> 0:17:26.359 they're forcing me against my will to come back to 0:17:26.400 --> 0:17:29.639 the studio quite often. So I'm not in the north Woods. 0:17:29.680 --> 0:17:32.479 It's a long drive and all that. Well, speaking of that, 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:37.920 I have my own Dodger related story to share and 0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:42.159 we'll calling this fifteen point two miles. So I was 0:17:42.320 --> 0:17:44.280 at the same Dodger game Danny was at. It was 0:17:44.320 --> 0:17:46.720 on a Tuesday night, and so I have a whole routine, 0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:49.399 It's a whole all this michigans I have to go 0:17:49.440 --> 0:17:51.560 through to go to a game because I work at 0:17:51.640 --> 0:17:54.359 night and I have to prepare for the show and 0:17:54.760 --> 0:17:57.000 all this. So and I live so far away, it's 0:17:57.000 --> 0:17:58.280 like when I come in, it's a hole to do. 0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:01.960 So to go and plan out the whole night. I 0:18:02.000 --> 0:18:04.399 was like, Okay. Originally I was going to eat it. 0:18:04.400 --> 0:18:06.320 I get a bite to eat at the house, save 0:18:06.320 --> 0:18:09.720 a little money. But my wife had worked an extra 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:12.479 long shift at the police station. She's a nine one 0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:14.520 to one operator, so she worked an extra long shift. 0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:18.040 And she normally normally have lunch together, or she'll make 0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:20.760 food for me or whatever, because on workdays I don't 0:18:20.800 --> 0:18:23.600 really cook. And so and I happened to be eating 0:18:23.600 --> 0:18:25.360 this dance and I didn't want to get up early. 0:18:25.400 --> 0:18:27.560 So I was like, all right, I'll go find some food. 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.480 So I was like, I go anywhere I want, you know. 0:18:31.600 --> 0:18:32.840 And I was like, you know what I'm gonna do. 0:18:33.200 --> 0:18:39.400 I love Tito's Tacos. Oh yeah, I know. I'm gonna 0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:44.240 stop by Tito's. I'll pick up some tacos. I'll quickly 0:18:44.280 --> 0:18:46.679 get back on the road and I'll make it to 0:18:47.000 --> 0:18:49.959 Dodger Stadium. I'll then eat the tacos in the parking 0:18:50.000 --> 0:18:53.359 lot at Dodger Stadium. I will then go in and 0:18:53.400 --> 0:18:56.000 I will prepare for the show. I had all planned 0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:57.960 out in my head, right, best laid plans of mice 0:18:58.040 --> 0:19:01.359 men and gas bags. So and it happened to be 0:19:01.400 --> 0:19:05.480 Taco Tuesday, not that it matters. And so Tito's Tacos 0:19:05.800 --> 0:19:09.440 is so good that I will literally empty my wallet. 0:19:09.600 --> 0:19:14.600 And it is the worst. The price gouge you. It's 0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:18.280 like a hotel after a hurricane and there's one room available. 0:19:18.320 --> 0:19:20.760 They just gouge you. It's so embarrassing what they do 0:19:20.840 --> 0:19:25.680 at that place. Five sixty five for a taco with cheese. 0:19:26.400 --> 0:19:30.200 One taco they charged like a dollar fifty for cheese. 0:19:31.080 --> 0:19:35.000 That's obscene too, But for me, five sixty five's about 0:19:35.040 --> 0:19:38.040 my limit. Yeah, taco and I got a few tacos 0:19:38.040 --> 0:19:39.879 and they give you a big box. And the cool 0:19:39.920 --> 0:19:41.639 thing about Tito's they give you a box and they 0:19:41.640 --> 0:19:42.920 put chips in there and salsa. 0:19:43.359 --> 0:19:45.720 What did that used to cost you at Tito's. 0:19:46.320 --> 0:19:48.280 I used to go. I remember my order. I could 0:19:48.320 --> 0:19:52.199 get five tacos and it was like, I think it 0:19:52.240 --> 0:19:54.840 was like eighteen bucks or something like that one point 0:19:54.840 --> 0:19:59.680 when I first started going there. And I'm the kind 0:19:59.680 --> 0:20:02.040 of guy when I go to restaurants, like I'm back 0:20:02.119 --> 0:20:04.280 when I was single, I would always count out, I'd cash. 0:20:04.320 --> 0:20:07.000 I paid with cash. Now everyone pays with Curray cars. 0:20:07.040 --> 0:20:09.800 But I'd always bring the exact amount. And I can't 0:20:09.840 --> 0:20:11.320 tell you the number of times I would go to 0:20:11.359 --> 0:20:15.760 Tito's and over the years, and I'd bring the exact amount, 0:20:15.880 --> 0:20:17.840 and then it'd be like, well that's two dollars more. 0:20:17.880 --> 0:20:19.159 Now we raised our prices, you know. 0:20:19.240 --> 0:20:21.800 I was like, wait a minute, So. 0:20:21.800 --> 0:20:23.439 Anyway, so I get to the point, please, so I 0:20:23.480 --> 0:20:27.440 get my tacos. I'm excited. I now I couldn't eat 0:20:27.440 --> 0:20:29.359 them at Tito's. And the reason I couldn't eat them 0:20:29.400 --> 0:20:33.040 at Titos, Danny, is I have not a handicap. But 0:20:33.200 --> 0:20:36.760 I had my gallbladder taken out a few years back. 0:20:36.760 --> 0:20:40.320 I think it was twenty twenty nineteen. I believe it was, 0:20:40.359 --> 0:20:42.320 So I had my gallbladder taken out. So when you 0:20:42.320 --> 0:20:45.160 have your gallbladder taken out, if you eat greasy foods 0:20:46.119 --> 0:20:50.159 and you fast, it is those are all the ingredients 0:20:50.200 --> 0:20:54.960 to a cluster bomb coming right out of your banunca dunk. 0:20:55.080 --> 0:20:59.600 So I have to be close to a bath. Not 0:20:59.680 --> 0:21:01.399 could have. I could have eaten at Titos and just 0:21:01.440 --> 0:21:04.680 waited about half an hour for the explosion to happen. 0:21:04.720 --> 0:21:07.280 But I decided not to do that because I wanted 0:21:07.280 --> 0:21:09.000 to be closer to Dodger stay in and I figured 0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:12.359 traffic would pile up. So I got my tacos, I 0:21:12.400 --> 0:21:14.239 get in the car, and I was literally only at 0:21:14.240 --> 0:21:17.400 Tito's for like five minutes. There was no line because 0:21:17.640 --> 0:21:19.920
