00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:59,960

14
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: there's more than one popcorn Day. I feel like we

15
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 1: do this every so often. But the fun fact on popcorn, right,

16
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 1: fun fact on popcorn. It goes back to fifteen nineteen

17
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 1: the Astechs. The first sight of popcorn in Mexico was

18
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: with the as Techs, So shout out ASEX. Didn't they

19
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: do human sacrifices the as Tex the good and the bad?

20
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,479
Speaker 1: They cooked up the popcorn? Wow? Who do you think

21
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: the first person that figured out that you heat up

22
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,960
Speaker 1: these corn seeds and you get the delicious popcorn.

23
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 3: It had to be a really creative Indian.

24
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 1: That must have been the most amazing mind bending moment.

25
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: When they figure that out, you think, wow, that's wild.

26
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 3: Yeah. And then who's the first one to put butter

27
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 3: on it?

28
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, butter? Sure.

29
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 3: And then who's the first person to put nacho cheese

30
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 3: or dip it into nacho cheese at the movie theater?

31
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: Now you're just blowing my mind. Now you're just blow.

32
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 3: By the way. Promotion today, all cinemak theaters are doing

33
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 3: a popcorn special. You don't even have to get a

34
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 3: movie ticket. You could walk into any cinemark with a bucket,

35
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 3: any bucket as long as it's clean, it says, any

36
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:26,119
Speaker 3: clean bucket, and it's five dollars. Oh really, they'll fill

37
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 3: up to I think it's set up top. Yeah, I'll

38
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 3: check the gallons here. I forget how many.

39
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: But the big tubs that people get for holiday parties,

40
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: those big plastic tubs you.

41
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 3: Mentioned going I'm bringing my hamper, why not? What the hell?

42
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: There you go, your popcorn fun fact. So at fifteen nineteen,

43
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: the Aztecs, I guess, came up with it. And then

44
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: in sixteen fifty some dude from Peru was blown away

45
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 1: by this and wrote about it. Maybe inca terror. Our

46
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: friend wrote about it, but or his some of relatives,

47
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: and he wrote this person wrote, they toast a certain

48
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: kind of corn until it bursts. They call it pisson

49
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 1: a colla. I believe I'm mispronouncing that. But anyway, that

50
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 1: became became popular, and it wasn't until the nineteen twenties.

51
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 1: Many theaters refused to sell popcorn. They thought it was

52
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 1: too messy. In the nineteen twenties, those people called idiots,

53
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: that's what they are. But wasn't that case Like in

54
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,399
Speaker 1: those days, Danny, people got dressed up to go see

55
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: a show. Remember of the movies was a big deal.

56
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: You get all dressed up, all dulled up to go

57
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: out there and put on your church clothes and kind

58
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: of like flying. Oh yeah, line, they would get all

59
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: dressed up to fly. Now people look like absolute pigs.

60
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, I found it here, it's up

61
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 3: to three gallons any container tote or back.

62
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: So you get like get a couple of you know,

63
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: two or three, three, boom, you're good. Ninety two. According

64
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 1: to a national survey over nine and ten Americans ninety

65
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: two like popcorn and the others must be allergic to it.

66
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: That must be it.

67
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 3: That's good. Yeah. The only thing I don't like is

68
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 3: how the kernels get stuck in your teeth.

69
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't mind it because my move is I

70
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,359
Speaker 1: mean what I do, Danny as I go out and

71
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: I get the toothpick. That's my move. That annoys me

72
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: the wife though, because I'm picking up my teeth and

73
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: she gets annoyed by that.

74
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 3: My wife, she does the same thing. She has those picks,

75
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,239
Speaker 3: the floss picks. Yeah, yeah yeah, and she sawing away

76
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 3: and I'm like, how long are you going to do that?

77
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: I'm a big toothpick person. I believe in the toothpick.

78
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 1: I'm pro toothpick.

79
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 3: I believe it. I could I could picture you with

80
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 3: a toothpick behind your ear.

81
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, well I'm not behind my ear.

82
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 3: Wait, can you remove tarder at home? No?

83
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: We got today in the end, if I got rams Eagles,

84
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: that'll be kicking off just after noon our time, three

85
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: o'clock in east and then the game everyone's been looking

86
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 1: for to snow, snow, snow. The sports with Coleman Bowl

87
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: as he takes on Bill's Mafia Ravens and Bills. That's

88
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 1: gonna be awesome. That's not late late. That's three thirty

89
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 1: our times, six thirty Eastern times, so it's not at

90
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:18,159
Speaker 1: night night.

91
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 3: Was that a pick them when you gambled on it

92
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 3: when we.

93
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: Did the show Thursday after noon? And the Ravens were

94
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,279
Speaker 1: a point and a half favorite, I believe at that time.

95
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 3: So, but we're looking forward to it. Who'd you take

96
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 3: in that game?

97
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: Well, you watch Benny versus the Penny find out. But

98
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: I did take the I took the Bills. I took

99
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 1: the Bills at home Snow game. I still don't trust

100
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. Although this is a legacy as I said

101
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: on the TV show, this is a legacy deal for

102
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: Josh Allen, who's gonna win the MVP.

103
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 3: And if you.

104
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: Look at his career, he's already lost at home in

105
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: the playoff to Mahome and Joe Burrow, and if he

106
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: loses to Lamar Jackson, you start questioning things. They're like,

107
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 1: what's going on?

108
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 3: This is you know, what are you doing?

109
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: You've lost your contemporaries and this is that this is

110
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: this generation of great quarterbacks and so all four of them,

111
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: they're judged against each other.

112
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 3: Ah. I can't wait for this game. I feel like

113
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 3: Derek Henry is going to be a big part of

114
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 3: this game.

115
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, you would think the Bills their defense is average,

116
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: but I still won't know about the Ravens defense. They

117
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 1: played very well the last part of the year, and

118
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 1: really it lasts like seven or so games, and I'm

119
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: still a little skeptical. And the Bills and Ravens played

120
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 1: early in the year and the Ravens just kicked the

121
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: shit out of the Bills. But the Bills were without

122
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 1: seven defensive starters, Amari Cooper, who's hit and miss as

123
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: you know because he played for the Raiders. But Amari

124
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: Cooper wasn't on the team at that time. And I

125
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: don't know how much throwing is going to happen because

126
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: of the snow. So well, I'll be locked in. We'll

127
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 1: look forward to that game later today. We have we

128
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: have actual mail. We have people that sent mail in

129
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 1: they want us to answer their question.

130
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 3: Oh it's about that time, mail, mother sucker, It's here

131
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 3: we go.

132
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: This is from Alf's neighbor Mike in Siberia aka Fullerton,

133
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: And by the way, thanks to Ohio Al love the tune,

134
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: appreciate that.

135
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 3: The great Ohio Al.

136
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: Says, Hi, Ben and Danny G not to get political,

137
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: but you know what that means, Danny, that means everything

138
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 1: about to get political, everything before the word but everything

139
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: before the word but is a lie. And he says,

140
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: are you aware that Donald Trump's inauguration is tomorrow? It's

141
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: Martin Luther King the weekend, Donald Trump. Yeah, any G's

142
00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 1: buddy will be reinaugurated as the president. Do you think

143
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: you'll watch more of that or the college football championship

144
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: game on Monday night. I know you guys are more

145
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 1: in the sports radio world than political, but I still

146
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: think it's a good question. For all, I know Danny

147
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 1: G might make a personal appearance at one of the

148
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 1: presidential balls. He does have an inn with President Trump.

149
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: And there's another question, So we'll do the other one

150
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: in a second, but let's start with that. So I

151
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: don't know exactly what time the inauguration is, believe it

152
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: or not. I do like polics, whether it's Democrats or Republicans.

153
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: I obviously lean more one way than the other. I

154
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 1: think you kind of know that if you listen to

155
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 1: the show or whatever, But I like watching that. Although

156
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: this is an anniversary for me. It was January twentieth

157
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: of nine when I got whacked. I was poll axed

158
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: by the company the day that Barack Obama was sworn

159
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: in as president. So this I have a little PTS

160
00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: post traumatic syndrome situation when they inauguration Day happens, because

161
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: it brings back some tough memories. But I will check

162
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 1: some of it out. I think it happens kind of

163
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,839
Speaker 1: later in the afternoon, maybe early afternoon our time, so

164
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 1: I will I'll watch some of it, mainly to see

165
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: how uncomfortable a lot of people probably will be, Danny,

166
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 1: because there's a lot of people there that aren't big

167
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: fans of mister Trump, and so they'll be upset, and

168
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 1: so always get a kick out of that. People freak

169
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: things that you don't need to freak out about that

170
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,839
Speaker 1: they freak out about. So it's pretty funny. So I

171
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: don't know about you're gonna be watching any of that.

172
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 1: You'll be working. I assume are you off, You're not awfun?

173
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 3: No, we'll be working the Covino and Rich Show. I'll

174
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 3: watch some of it same as you. I'll watch more

175
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:48,679
Speaker 3: of the football game obviously, but it doesn't matter Democrat

176
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 3: or Republican is being sworn in. I'll always watch a

177
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 3: little bit of it, And then you want to see

178
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 3: some of the performances too, Like there was some controversy

179
00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 3: quote unquote controversy that Carrie Underwould is going to be performing.

180
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 3: What I really want to see with her is how

181
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 3: she can't make any emotional look on her face. She

182
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 3: can't look happy, she can't look sad, She only looks

183
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 3: surprised because of all the plastic surgery.

184
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: She's spent a lot of her money she's put in

185
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: where her mouth is and her nose.

186
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 3: And her eyes and all that stuff.

187
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't it feel a little different though, you know,

188
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,559
Speaker 1: not that this is political, however, it does feel a

189
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: little different like when the last time, it's like so

190
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,080
Speaker 1: it seems like a lot of like anger and upset,

191
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: Like Trump won the popular vote this time, So it

192
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: seems a little different. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know.

193
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: Just seems a little different.

194
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a little bit different because more

195
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 3: people came out this time were open about who they

196
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 3: voted for and weren't hesitanting about it at all.

197
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the people the doom and gloomers on the

198
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: world's going to end and all that stuff. If Trump

199
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,199
Speaker 1: becomes president, well, he was president for four years and

200
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: things are actually better by the time time he left

201
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,959
Speaker 1: than when you know, he came in, and now things

202
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 1: were worse when Biden left as opposed to Trump. So

203
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: I don't know, good luck to Biden man. He's not

204
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: in good health.

205
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 3: I don't I don't know.

206
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 1: Who knows how much time he's got left, So hopefully

207
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: he enjoys his final final years as the former president.

208
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: Let's see alf alf Mike and Fullerton also says, what

209
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 1: is the longest shower you guys have ever taken? Do

210
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: you think you could take a longer shower than the

211
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 1: master of the two hour shower, Helmet Man if you tried. Yeah,

212
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:36,719
Speaker 1: I don't know if you heard Danny, probably not. But

213
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 1: Helmet Man called to show the other night and informed

214
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 1: us that his showers are now down to half an

215
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 1: hour before he would take two hour showers.

216
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 3: I saw one of your listeners tweeting about this after

217
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 3: it happened.

218
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, two hour showers half of the morning.

219
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 3: That's insane, man, That's not a shower's that's sitting in

220
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 3: a jacuzzi. I mean, yeah, you can't even you can't

221
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 3: even sit in a jacuzzi for two hours.

222
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, your fingers turned to grapes and stuff after, you know,

223
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,439
Speaker 1: they get the all squiggly and the skin gets all

224
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:15,680
Speaker 1: So I think he must go in and out of

225
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: the shower. Next time he calls, I forgot to ask

226
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 1: him the other But next time he calls, I have

227
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: to say, what's going on?

228
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 3: How does he afford that water bill?

229
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: Right, it's ridiculous, it's absolutely he's got to be at

230
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: a hostel. Well, I know he's got an Obama phone.

231
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 1: We're the number one show on Fox Sports Radio for

232
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: people with Obama phones. So my show, the Overnight Show,

233
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 1: Holy crap. So I'm not sure my showers about. I

234
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: don't time it, but it's you know, it feels like

235
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: seven to ten minutes at the most, and that's about it.

236
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 1: Probably a little less than that in and out. That's

237
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:53,679
Speaker 1: what a shower is all about. Don't spend a lot

238
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 1: of time in there and get done. And now my

239
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 1: one thing that I go a little over the top

240
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 1: on is I will I will before I take a bath.

241
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: I shower before the bath, which is wrong, but I

242
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 1: don't want to get in the bath all dirty, because

243
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 1: then I'm just sitting in the dirt.

244
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 3: Oh that's different. I've never heard of that move. Yeah.

245
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 3: You know what's really nice A long hotel shower. Oh yeah.

246
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 1: And in the hotel, it's.

247
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 3: Oh, hotel, you can double the time of your shower.

248
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. No, I agree with you on that.

249
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: I agree. And the water doesn't count in the hotel

250
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: when you go the water, it's yeah, the.

251
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 3: Oh god.

252
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 1: Anonymous writes and says, I live next to a Senior

253
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: citizen center and I am disabled, so I can go

254
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: there to the food pantry. I realized that the grocery

255
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 1: store down the street is giving the food to the pantry,

256
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: so I went to the food pantry and then gave

257
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 1: the items to my mom to return to the grocery store.

258
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 1: I told my mom that, you know, at the grocery store,

259
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: they got me the wrong items. Can you return these

260
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: for me? It's been successful for about six months. Have

261
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 1: you ever found a loophole in the system like this

262
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 1: before you were Danny g that you were able to

263
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 1: capitalize on like I am doing. And this is again

264
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 1: from Anonymous, So this person Danny is claiming that they're rigging.

265
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 1: They're taking money from the grocery store. The money, so

266
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 1: how's the way. So the money, I assume that's a

267
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 1: tax rite off for the grocery store. The food that

268
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: they don't sell they give to the Senior Citizen Center

269
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: and they get money back from the government. Right, I

270
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: assume that's how that works.

271
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I would assume.

272
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say be careful, anonymous. At some point

273
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: someone's going to figure that out and then you're gonna

274
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: have some explaining to do. But I guess if you're disabled,

275
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 1: you can play the disabled card. But your mom's not disabled,

276
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 1: so that might be a problem. So good luck. I'm

277
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 1: trying to think any loophole, Danny. I. I really haven't

278
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 1: done anything along those other than like media freeloading. Other

279
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 1: than that, but.

280
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 3: That's not and that's on the up and up. That's

281
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 3: not freeloading.

282
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, that's what I say.

283
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 3: You know, that's pretty I mean, they have official online

284
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 3: forms for that, so there's nothing illegal about it.

285
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know they have. They invite you when you

286
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: go to these bits, and they have certain foods that

287
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: you can have and all that, and I mean that's

288
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 1: all it's all good.

289
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, the only way we do all these

290
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 3: iHeart training videos every year. The only way we could

291
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 3: get into trouble is if we did like little Wink

292
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 3: Wink commercials for companies on the air that weren't approved.

293
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: Yeah it's called Paola. Yeah, you're get in trouble for that.

294
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 3: By the way, this podcast is being brought to you

295
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 3: by Puma. You know what you're laughing about. I don't know.

296
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 3: It seems seems these brand new Puma X three's on

00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 3: I wore them all all day yesterday while I was walking.

299
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: Is that right?

300
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 3: Really?

301
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 1: What color are they?

302
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 3: They're gray in the Puma logos black. We get them

303
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 3: in all colors, though. Just go to Puma dot com

304
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 3: check it out. That is not a real model of

305
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 3: a shoe. That is a joke.

306
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 1: Uh all right, Next up, let's see Alf from the TikTok.

307
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: He says, Greetings, gentlemen, how will the TikTok band affect

308
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 1: your daily lives? For millions of Americans who rely on

309
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 1: the social media platform for their e commerce businesses, the

310
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 1: ban will put many out of work personally for me,

311
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: Alf says, as a conspiracy theorist, I rely on the

312
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: app to keep me up to date on the latest events,

313
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 1: from aliens in backyards to drones in the skies, Alf says,

314
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: most recently videos from the streets of California detailing the

315
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: devastation the fires continue to pour in. For example, I

316
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: saw a video detailing the efforts of a gang of

317
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: punks from Fullerton riding their electric scooters into la and

318
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: attempting to burn Genie's bench. This app is essential provide

319
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 1: the public with the unfiltered truth that the mainstream media

320
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: is hiding. Yeah, I'm not very funny. Well, I was

321
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,920
Speaker 1: well written. That's why Alf sends us me mail every week.

322
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: That was one of his better efforts. That was a

323
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 1: solid job by Alf. Good job by you, Alf. Way

324
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: to go, my man. Yeah, so I'm not as you know, Alf,

325
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 1: you're my TikTok person. I'm not a TikTok guy. I

326
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: made the determination I can only have so much social

327
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 1: media in my life. I use it for work. I

328
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 1: remember this week. Give me example, my guy Sports with

329
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: Coleman was going to war with Bill's mafia. So he's

330
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: sending me messages, right, He's you know, we're going back

331
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 1: and for he's sending me messages and we're yapping whatever,

332
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 1: and he's like, did you see this on X or

333
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 1: Twitter or whatever. It's like, I'm not on I go

334
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 1: on there at night and he's on there all day

335
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: and I'm like, what are you doing?

336
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 3: You know?

337
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: And I go on Facebook to promote stuff. I'll go

338
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 1: on on Instagram because they got that, but that's about it.

339
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 1: That's my limit. I'm not on TikTok. I heard it's

340
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: really easy to have like tons of followers on this.

341
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: I probably should be, but I don't mess around with

342
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,679
Speaker 1: it as far as I'm collecting stuff. And it's just

343
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: because it's China, like they to me, I know, going in,

344
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: if you're on Instagram and X and Facebook, they're collecting,

345
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 1: you are the product, right that old line. If you're

346
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,679
Speaker 1: getting it for free, you are the product. So I

347
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 1: totally understand that the government claiming it's worse with TikTok

348
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: because China has everyone's information and all that, and they

349
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 1: clearly have their reasons for it. Well see though, isn't

350
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,679
Speaker 1: the guy from TikTok's supposed to be at Trump's inauguration

351
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 1: tomorrow Danny, I think so.

352
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,920
Speaker 3: So yeah, But I also heard that there are other

353
00:18:55,680 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 3: heads of big corporations like that that are just autumnally

354
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:04,640
Speaker 3: invited to a big inauguration like that. So I don't

355
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 3: know if that means anything special. But there's been rumors

356
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 3: that there could be a wealthy billionaire out there who

357
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 3: will buy TikTok and save it. We'll see what happens.

358
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 3: This is good timing though, because for show prep, Covino

359
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 3: and Rich will always send TikTok clips and I can't

360
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 3: open them whenever they send it in the group chat

361
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 3: because I don't have a TikTok account either. So it's

362
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 3: frustrating because it'll be like a little sports reel or

363
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 3: a certain sports story. Can't open it.

364
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll get sensed stuff and I'll click, maybe see

365
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 1: it one time, and then that's.

366
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 3: It doesn't even do that for me. It used to

367
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,720
Speaker 3: let me see it once, okay, and for whatever reason,

368
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 3: the past few weeks, it won't even let me watch

369
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 3: it one time. Well.

370
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 1: Fun fact, fun fact, fun fact. You know who's in

371
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 1: the lead. I read in one of the business papers

372
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: this week to buy TikTok, mister wonderful, Yeah, mister wonderful.

373
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: The guy that, Yeah, Frank McCourt, who I know. I

374
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,199
Speaker 1: knew him when he owned the Dodgers. I was in

375
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 1: his office at Dodger Stadium, and just the guy that

376
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 1: was born on third base and got the money and

377
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: the family owned a bunch of parking lots in Boston

378
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,639
Speaker 1: and he's partner a billion. Every time you buy parking

379
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: at Dodger Stadium, you're you're helping out Frank McCort.

380
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 3: Boy, he pooped all over the Dodgers.

381
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,639
Speaker 1: Well we're getting the benefit of that. Because he was

382
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 1: so bad, they had to sell the team and that

383
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: led to what we've got now, right.

384
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 3: If Yeah, that's a good way to look at it.

385
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, you had to put up with the bad to

386
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: get the good. Yeah. Absolutely. Anyway, all right, thank you.

387
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,679
Speaker 3: It's not true that he still owns a percentage of

388
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 3: the parking lot.

389
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, for sure. Yeah, no, he does, and he wants.

390
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 1: I had some people from the Dodgers tell me last

391
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:54,199
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago that McCourt wants to develop

392
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 1: the parking lots at Dodger Stadium.

393
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 3: He wants to.

394
00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: Make a I guess in Atlanta at the Braves. I've

395
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: not been to the bravest ballpark out in the suburbs.

396
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: But they have like a hotel, they have an entertainment

397
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: zone with restaurants. He wants to make Dodger Stadium like.

398
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 3: That, like a city walk. He wants to do Dodger exactly.

399
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: He wants to make it an entertainment thing with a

400
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,400
Speaker 1: hotel where he'd get revenue from that. And so that's

401
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: one of the reasons they're they're talking about building that gondola.

402
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 3: I think Ben means gondola.

403
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 1: That'll come from from somewhere else in LA and take

404
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 1: people like a people mover, So you'd have to park,

405
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,639
Speaker 1: and what a pain in the ass that would be, Danny,

406
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 1: You imagine. You gotta imagine the line for the gondoldos

407
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,120
Speaker 1: after the game, fifty thousand people leaving at the same time.

408
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 1: Because there's gonna being much parking. They build, they build

409
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:43,119
Speaker 1: parking structures or whatever, something like that, but a lot

410
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 1: of the people would have to take the gondolas. They

411
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 1: mainly want that so they can use that space year

412
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 1: round and have people go up there at Dodger Stadium.

413
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 1: If you've never been to La, you know, we have

414
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,479
Speaker 1: a mix of people in LA. People not in La

415
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,120
Speaker 1: So you guy, it's on the top of a hill

416
00:21:56,119 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: overlooking the skyline of Los Angeles, and you got it's

417
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 1: up a hill.

418
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,919
Speaker 3: So I'm sure media people would get free limo rides

419
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:05,400
Speaker 3: to the front of the stadium.

420
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: That would of course, that would happen, unless.

421
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 3: It you don't even get to go.

422
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 1: Now this is from the unknown. Listener says, can you

423
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 1: talk about how the wealth that wealthy dude gave Stephen

424
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 1: King money to save his rock and roll station in Maine.

425
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: So I saw this. I don't know what you want

426
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 1: me to add. Stephen King, member of the story into

427
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,880
Speaker 1: last year's rock and roll station was going to stop

428
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 1: and they was going to go dark and all that stuff.

429
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 1: And then I guess a couple of people ended up

430
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 1: a couple of rich people ended up coming up with

431
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: some money and they're keeping the the station on the air.

432
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 1: They formed a radio group. I love the name of it,

433
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 1: rock Lobster Radio Group.

434
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 3: Is the name of it. Two.

435
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: Some of the Stephen King's like seventy seven or something

436
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 1: like it up there, and he thought it was time

437
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:04,920
Speaker 1: for him to get rid of the stations. But some

438
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,439
Speaker 1: of these stations, Danny and with the point now not

439
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: that necessarily that's a great investment, but we could probably

440
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,119
Speaker 1: afford to buy some stations at this point, some of

441
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 1: the stations with most of the stuff going to streaming

442
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:20,480
Speaker 1: and whatnot. So we'll see my dream, Danny and whoever

443
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 1: this person that sent the question is, is radio actually

444
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 1: invented or not invented? Invested in promoting radio? There could

445
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 1: be an absolute renaissance in radio and radios. People listen

446
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: to it and does very well, but the perception of

447
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: radio could be so much better if they actually If

448
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:41,679
Speaker 1: the people that were in the business, the people at

449
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 1: the very top of all the big companies, if they

450
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:49,199
Speaker 1: promoted the radio, there'd be an absolute renaissance in the

451
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: perception of it.

452
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 3: Don't let me get my hands on one of these

453
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,360
Speaker 3: FM radio stations. I'll do the first ever twenty four

454
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:59,400
Speaker 3: hour gangs to wrap radio station. You'd call k TUPAC

455
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,160
Speaker 3: is what no. I got the call letters. I would

456
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 3: file for k f u Q hey f you Q.

457
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:07,159
Speaker 1: I like that.

458
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 3: It's good to be a gangster.

459
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:16,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he f you r k F you rock Yeah.

460
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 1: Kevin in rock Rockford, Illinois writes and he says, I'm

461
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 1: sorry to hear about the your friend Ben Brian Wheeler

462
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: boom shackaca, Yeah, I talked about him. I was supposed to.

463
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: I suppose I was invited to this memorial service last weekend.

464
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,840

00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,360
Speaker 1: Greats, he says. Kevin from Rockford on the OI says,

467
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 1: I looked him up after listening to the podcast, and

468
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 1: according to Wikipedia, he found his birth mother here in Rockford, Illinois,

469
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 1: where I live. I thought that was kind of neat.

470
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 1: Did you know that the voice of the Little Mermaid

471
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,919
Speaker 1: was also from Rockford? I did not. That's That's a

472
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 1: Rockford fun fact. I used to write into the podcast

473
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 1: a few years ago. I was the guy who tried

474
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 1: to get a mountain in Colorado named after you, Mount Mallor,

475
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: but was unsuccessful.

476
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 3: I remember that, you remember that.

477
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 1: Thank you for the effort, Kevin. The mountain was formerly

478
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 1: known as Mount Evans, but for political reasons, the Wolkester's

479
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:16,360
Speaker 1: changed it to a generic name, Mount Blue Sky. Ben

480
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 1: and Danny, what do you think would be a good

481
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: name for a fourteen thousand foot mountain in Colorado?

482
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 3: Mount Stiffy?

483
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: Mount Stiffy how about just Mount High, Mountain High. At

484
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 1: Mountain High out here, I.

485
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,360
Speaker 3: Guess there is a Mountain High out here. Yeah, that's

486
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 3: where some people go skiing.

487
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 1: I meant the other kind of high. Meant you meant

488
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: Cooper Loop, Ritree, Mount Weed? How about that Mount Weed?

489
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 1: Mount four to two. Oh, there you go, Mount cush

490
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: Mount Cushy, Cushy. Yes, absolutely, thank you for listening, though.

491
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 1: I'm glad you wrote in It's good to hear from you.

492
00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 1: Kevin's people.

493
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 3: It sounds like everybody finds their long life parents in

494
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 3: his town.

495
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, I know. Weeels was Wheels was adopted,

496
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 1: and he told me the story about how he tracked

497
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,440
Speaker 1: there his mom and how emotional that was.

498
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 3: And oh that is cool. I got to make it

499
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 3: out there. Sometimes maybe I can meet my dad for

500
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 3: the first times.

501
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: Let's see. Here's another one from anonymous. He says, so,

502
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,359
Speaker 1: I live in South Boston, mass This is from anonymous,

503
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 1: and they have the local bookie in the barroom here.

504
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 1: It seems to be better to place a bet with

505
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: the local bookie than it does to the state with

506
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 1: draft Kings application or a fan duel or whatever, just

507
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 1: because they take so many fees, the bookie pays out better.

508
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 1: What are your what are your thoughts? Well, you know,

509
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,160
Speaker 1: you have to make your own decision. I had back

510
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,160
Speaker 1: in the day the Statute of Limitations was run out,

511
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 1: so I can talk about this, Danny.

512
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 3: But I had.

513
00:26:54,600 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 1: A bookie when I was younger. But you know the

514
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 1: the Draft Kings that they're obviously a big advertiser.

515
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, and DraftKings doesn't break your legs.

516
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you don't have to worry like if you win.

517
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,639
Speaker 1: I was worried if I actually ever won big with

518
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,120
Speaker 1: the bookie, would he suddenly vanish or say I don't

519
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:17,679
Speaker 1: I can't come up with the money. You know, you

520
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:21,640
Speaker 1: always wonder about that. Yeah, you know DraftKings if they

521
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 1: screw over then you know, I don't think they do,

522
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,639
Speaker 1: but if they did, you'd have legal recourse where the

523
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 1: neighborhood bookie. It's pretty hard to go to the cops

524
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,479
Speaker 1: and say I got screwed over by my neighborhood bookie.

525
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 3: Yeah. DraftKings is such a big company now, they couldn't

526
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 3: get away with screwing a winner over. There's no way.

527
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, they'd have to if you know, you have documentation

528
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 1: that you want and then you could take care of that.

529
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 1: Ryan from Shrewsbury rights in in the Commonwealth. Make sure

530
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 1: to watch Benny Versus The Penny Ryan on NBC Sports Boston.

531
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 1: He says, Hey, Ben and Danny. Last week, Ben, you

532
00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: talked about your friend who passed away and how great

533
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 1: he was. And not a jab New York Jab is Danny.

534
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 1: That's just a broadcaster, a jab you know. Oh yeah,

535
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,720
Speaker 1: you thought him in something else. Anyway, he says, that

536
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 1: made me start to think, who is another great play

537
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 1: by play guy? And I cannot think of any other

538
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 1: than the goat Mike Doc Emerck, the guy. That guy

539
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: can make a boring hockey game super fun. His voice

540
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 1: and catchphrases are top notch, especially off the post. What

541
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 1: are your guys thoughts on Doc Emrick? Yeah, Doc was great,

542
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 1: he's he's retired now. He's a former play by play guy.

543
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: And I remember going to Kings games back when I

544
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 1: used to go out there a lot and Doc Emrick

545
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 1: was in town to call a game. It was like

546
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 1: a big deal, right like Doc Emrick. You know, this

547
00:28:54,840 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 1: guy started in the nineteen seventies to him play by play,

548
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 1: and he just he was the dean of the NHL

549
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: and did the network stuff when I was at NBC

550
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 1: Sports Network before that went belly up. Remember Eddie Oldchuk

551
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 1: was there and he did some games with Doc Emrick.

552
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 1: I think they were together quite a bit, so he

553
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 1: was he was a legend. That's a tough sport to

554
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:22,480
Speaker 1: do play by play on.

555
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, man, you are super talented if

556
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 3: you could do that, and you're super patient if you

557
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 3: can listen to it on the radio. I heard a

558
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 3: King's game it was painful to try to listen to.

559
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't who's the is it Nick Nixon?

560
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 3: Is he doing TV or is he I don't know

561
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 3: the name of their crew. Like I said, they're very

562
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 3: gifted because they can do that play by play. But

563
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 3: I and also here in California, let's be honest, we

564
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 3: didn't grow besides Wayne Gretzky, we don't know much about hockey.

565
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 3: It's not a top three sport for us. But still, man,

566
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,479
Speaker 3: if you could listen to hockey regularly on the radio,

567
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 3: then you are passionate about that sport.

568
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. The thing that makes it so difficult is a

569
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 1: the speed of the game and be the line changes

570
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 1: that they three different lines or whatever. And you've got situation,

571
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: and then you have power play shorthanded groups and they

572
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: have different groups for that. And I remember reading the

573
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 1: story years ago. It's probably been over ten years, and

574
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 1: they documented somebody sat down and listened to Doc Emrick

575
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 1: call the game, and the he used over ninety different

576
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 1: descriptors during one hockey game, like you know, blocked, bounced,

577
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: came back, krene, chip, chopped, controlled, covered, deflecting all these

578
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 1: different words, which is maestro of the language. Much respect.

579
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 3: That's that's impressive.

580
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: Listen, It's one of my pet peeves. Danny. I've told

581
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 1: you about this off the area. Here's sometimes even like

582
00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: in our business, people doing sports updates or whatever, they

583
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: used the same phrases. They don't change it. It's so

584
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 1: easy to do. It makes it sound so much better.

585
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: I say, you know, we redirected, ricocheted, rushed, whatever. You

586
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 1: changed the words. It sounds much better to the ear.

587
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 1: It's just a much better experience. But thank you, Ryan

588
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 1: from Shrewsbury. The mail bag continues. This one's from Kyle

589
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: in Denver. Says, Hey, it's Kyle from Denver. Long time listener,

590
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 1: but I've fallen off over the last year with life

591
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: and haven't been catching up on the podcast Bad Job

592
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 1: at You Cop. I saw southern California was on fire

593
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 1: and a lot of the cities that you talk about

594
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 1: we're on fire. I just wanted to see how you

595
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 1: guys are doing. Hepe Paul as, well, there you go,

596
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 1: and yeah, well we're still doing the show. Do you

597
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 1: were evacuated, right, Danny? Weren't you kicked out for a

598
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: night or something like that.

599
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, we talked about it last Sunday on the mail bag.

600
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,600
Speaker 3: We had to grab bags and close it and run

601
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 3: ten minutes. We had to get out of here. So

602
00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 3: it was a scary situation, but obviously nothing compared to

603
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 3: the people who lost houses and all of their material

604
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 3: items that they had in the world.

605
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:09,480
Speaker 1: I've learned a few things over the last couple of

606
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 1: days about wildfires and why houses burnt up and how

607
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: you could protect your house a little more. And the

608
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 1: two things I've learned are a they say, like over

609
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 1: eighty five percent of the time during wildfires houses catch

610
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 1: on fire. Is the vent to the attic in a

611
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 1: house is open and the embers come flying in and

612
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: catch the attic on fire, and that lights the house

613
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 1: on fire. So that's crazy over eighty percent. So if

614
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 1: there's a way you can cover your vents, yeas the thing.

615
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: The other thing is if the houses on fire around you,

616
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 1: the gas gets caught on fire, and that blows the

617
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 1: house up, like if the gas. A lot of people

618
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 1: evacuated didn't turn the gas off a hurry to get

619
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 1: out of there.

620
00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 3: Also, Ben, you're supposed to unplug everything before where you leave.

621
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, So there was a story this week that there

622
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: was a firefighter who was out, you know, one of

623
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 1: his friends asked to have somebody check on his house.

624
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: This is early on in the firestorm, and so this

625
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 1: this guy goes to the house and he notices there

626
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 1: were a couple of houses that weren't on fire yet.

627
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: And this is in the Eaton Canyon fire. And he

628
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 1: went and he ended up breaking entry into the house

629
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: that wasn't on fire yet. He needed to cool down

630
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 1: the gas thing, and so he went to the refrigerator

631
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 1: and all you could find was milk and beer. I

632
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 1: don't know if you saw the story or not, but

633
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 1: it was in guy's like alta dina or whatever. And

634
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: so he went in there and how he used the

635
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: milk and beer, He used his training, and he was

636
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 1: able to keep the house from from exploding. The surrounding

637
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 1: homes were fully engulfed in flames, and he did not.

638
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 1: There was no fire trucks around. He just was on

639
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 1: his own. He wasn't working. They say, the gas meter,

640
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 1: that's the thing. You got to keep that cool because

641
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 1: if the gas meter ends up getting too hot, the

642
00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:10,640
Speaker 1: whole thing explodes.

643
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 3: That is crazy. And then also I read that there

644
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 3: were a couple of homes where the homeowners put their

645
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 3: sprinklers on before they left. Yeah, and if you have

646
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 3: a good enough sprinkler system that makes a difference. As

647
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 3: you can imagine. It doesn't guarantee anything, obviously, but imagine

648
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 3: you know, a really good sprinkler system outside of a

649
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 3: house blasting, and at least she'd have some little force

650
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:38,919
Speaker 3: field around your house. Yeah.

651
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 1: You wonder all these people in the Palasades and when

652
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 1: they have the money, there's there's money all over. But

653
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: if they can afford to rebuild their homes, are they

654
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 1: going to rebuild their homes the same as they were before?

655
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 3: No ire proof? Now not at all. Did you see

656
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 3: the one guy in Pacific Palisades where his mansion stood

657
00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 3: alone and he had a modern roof. He had a

658
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 3: modern roof, and he had he had a specially made

659
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 3: brick wall surrounding his mansion. His house was built and

660
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 3: it said a lot of it was for earthquake, for

661
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 3: earthquake disaster, but it held up to the fire.

662
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, they say that if you want, you can do it.

663
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:24,080
Speaker 1: But from what I've been paying attention, I was because

664
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,279
Speaker 1: we know we're involved in it. It's all around us,

665
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 1: you know. The I've know a couple of people have

666
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:31,839
Speaker 1: lost their homes. One of my I don't know if

667
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 1: you were at Fox Sports Radio when he worked here,

668
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 1: but Patrick O'Neil his home.

669
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 3: In oh I know Patrick, I worked with him at

670
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 3: NBC Sports.

671
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, Patrick's home burned up, and I feel fine.

672
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:43,840
Speaker 3: It was really sad.

673
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and my my sister in law's parents business burned up.

674
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 1: Then they had a home kind of in the business

675
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 1: thing and that burned up in this big nursery. So it's, uh,

676
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,440
Speaker 1: it sucks, but you learn about I mean, and the

677
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 1: things they say. The fire department claims, you've got to

678
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 1: do forest management. The electric companies should they need to

679
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,960
Speaker 1: put the power lines underground. The thing that blows me

680
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:16,320
Speaker 1: away about that is that these electric companies get absolutely punched.

681
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 1: Like it looks like I don't know for sure, but

682
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,399
Speaker 1: it looks like the the Eaton Canyon fire started from

683
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:25,120
Speaker 1: an electrical wire that caught on fire. They have video

684
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 1: of it. But it costs a ton of money to

685
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 1: put those power lines in the ground. But doesn't it

686
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: cost more money, Danny, when they're gonna get sued by

687
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,360
Speaker 1: everyone whose house burned down from the fire? Like is

688
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 1: it wouldn't be easier just to put the lines underground

689
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 1: and at least you're not at fault if there's another wildfire.

690
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 3: You said it, man, I saw an aerial shot of Altadena,

691
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:50,280
Speaker 3: just just mind blowing.

692
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I at one point made an offer on a

693
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:57,800
Speaker 1: home years ago in Alta Dina. I loved it. I

694
00:36:57,880 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 1: used to go to the gym, the twenty four hour

695
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 1: Fitness and Alta Dina.

696
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 3: I remember you telling me about that. I know you

697
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 3: have some history in that part of La Yeah. I

698
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,919
Speaker 3: loved dan you. Yeah, boy, that was a smart move

699
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 3: by you to go in a different direction.

700
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:13,880
Speaker 1: Well, I couldn't afford that.

701
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 3: Okay, let me rephrase that. You being broadcasting.

702
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 1: I'd like to thank the bosses for not paying me

703
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:27,719
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of money. Let's do one

704
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:29,399
Speaker 1: more and then we'll get out on this. Zach from

705
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 1: Columbus on the mailback says, you still got to tell

706
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,359
Speaker 1: the fridge shitter story. I can break it up into

707
00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: two parts. I know it's long, sure, And Zach says

708
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: he has a new bar store. He's the bartender. He

709
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 1: wants to host a mallor meet and greet there in Columbus.

710
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:46,879
Speaker 1: He says, one night there was some asshole, unfortunately also

711
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 1: named Zach, this little guy, bald guy. He came in

712
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 1: with his girlfriend, Brittany, a huge girl, nice girl. There

713
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:56,320
Speaker 1: was an altercation. He followed her in the ladies room

714
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 1: at the bar. My retired old boss, who was also

715
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:02,800
Speaker 1: an older man, the man who shoes I'm now filling,

716
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,919
Speaker 1: followed little Zach into the lady's room to remove him.

717
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 1: I was counting drawers and I heard a very loud

718
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:14,919
Speaker 1: shattering of glass from said ladies room. Zack and Columbus says,

719
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,320
Speaker 1: I charge you. And I see my old boss wrestling

720
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:20,719
Speaker 1: with the little Zach after they'd already broken the full

721
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: size mirror, while big girl Britney is still locked in

722
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:27,600
Speaker 1: the stall, bawling her eyes out this is very very

723
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 1: cold night, late December twenty seventeen. By the way, so

724
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 1: a few years back, Zach the bartender says, I restrained

725
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 1: him easily, and I walked him to the exit in

726
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:42,760
Speaker 1: a comfortable headlock, gently shoved him out onto the street.

727
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 1: As he was shoved out gently, he lost his footing,

728
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,840
Speaker 1: swung around, caught me in the chin with a punch

729
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:53,760
Speaker 1: much more gentle than his removal. But the funny part

730
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 1: was in the three sixty degrees stumble. After his little

731
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 1: tap on my face, his chants fell down, and his

732
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 1: underwear also fell down, and his tiny uh the penis

733
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,480
Speaker 1: pop right out and he hit the ground hard. I

734
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 1: did not hide my observation of the hilarity, so I

735
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 1: guess he was laughing there.

736
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 3: So there's our friend.

737
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 1: That sounds like a fun memories acting you good to

738
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: share with the class. So all right, we'll get out.

739
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: It's sunny. I'll be back tonight to break down all

00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:32,319
Speaker 1: can ram it all night. Can you ram it in

742
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 1: the snow? We're gonna find out this afternoon whether you

743
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 1: can ram it in the snow and the Rams can

744
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:39,880
Speaker 1: punch their ticket to the NFC Championship Game. The final

745
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:47,760
Speaker 1: four of the NFL will be determined of the evening today.
