Grumpy talk show hosts or better talk shows. 37 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 3: So here I am. It is a random day. This week. 38 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 3: I have logged in my four and a half hours 39 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 3: or so of neurotic slumber. My right hand was getting 40 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 3: a workout, not a deep sleep, not a deep sleep. 41 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 3: I wake up and like, do I want to sleep more? 42 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 3: I don't think I can sleep more. My leg's hurting 43 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 3: a little bit. I need to get out of bed. 44 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 3: I'm a little groggy. I'm squinting at the light because 45 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 3: I pulled my sleep mask up and I'm squinting at 46 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 3: the light like a mole emerging from a hole in 47 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 3: the ground. Granted an expensive hole in the ground with 48 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 3: property taxes. And my wife, who has been working the 49 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 3: day shift, and so she's been gone as she happened 50 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 3: to be there. And she, of course a saint, Well 51 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 3: maybe not. I don't think you can be a saint 52 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 3: until till you die. So I candidate for canonization on 53 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 3: the path to sainthood. 54 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: So she was off of working. 55 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 3: We exchanged pleasantries, and I decided at that point it 56 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 3: was time for me to go out and face the world. Now, 57 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 3: when I say face the world, I mean that moment 58 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 3: where you have to get out of bed. You have 59 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 3: to exit the bed stage right, and I'm ready to 60 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 3: do it, at least in my head, in this make 61 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 3: believe case, I was ready to do it. So I 62 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 3: get out of bed. I stand up, because everyone has 63 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 3: to do that if they are able to. I take 64 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 3: two steps. I then opened the door. And then it's 65 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 3: not that I saw the light. I smelled the smell. 66 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 3: It was like I had been knocked over with a 67 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 3: punch a haymaker from Muhammad Ali in his prime. Have 68 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 3: you ever been asking, have you ever been to the 69 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 3: Kentucky State Fair on a Sunday evening. 70 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: Specifically, have you ever stood behind a honey wagon? 71 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 3: Which I believe is the professional term, by the way, 72 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 3: the honey wagon cleaning, said Porta Potti, in ninety five 73 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 3: degree humidity, after people had been consuming all of the 74 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 3: various fried foods, barbecue, and whatever else they have at 75 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 3: the Kentucky State Fair and hadn't been cleaned since Friday. Now, 76 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 3: to be fair, I have not done that either, but 77 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 3: after this morning the other day, I feel like I've 78 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 3: earned the Boy Scout Merit badge for the honeywagon. I 79 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 3: believe that this was not just an odor. This was 80 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 3: a physical entity. It was an atmospheric event. All I 81 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 3: have is words here, but it was like if you 82 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 3: were to remake a Star Trek with my buddy Captain Kirk, 83 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 3: and this would be the episode titled Zero G Potty Odyssey, 84 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 3: the zero G Potty Odyssey. I was overwhelmed. I was 85 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 3: not just offended. I was attacked. At this point. I 86 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 3: was like, man, let me get COVID. I won't be 87 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 3: able to smell it. That'd be great. My sinus is retreated, 88 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 3: thinking that I might have had some kind of illness 89 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 3: or I should have had it. I mean, this was insane. 90 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 3: I started puking my mouth, which is less than ideal. 91 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 3: You don't necessarily want to puke in your mouth within 92 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 3: ten minutes after you've woken up. 93 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: And I was convinced I was dreaming. 94 00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 3: I was like, okay, you ever done that When you're 95 00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 3: you get out of bed, something happens that. 96 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: Okay, this is not real. 97 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 3: This is not reality. So I convinced myself that that 98 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 3: I was dreaming. And you know, you're still in the 99 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 3: Mallard bed in the Malor mansion. You're maybe you're dreaming, 100 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 3: but you don't really dream and I don't know what's 101 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 3: going on. So I thought this was all just an hallucination, 102 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 3: you know, a byproduct of the schedule, too many caffeine pills, 103 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 3: possibly a lack of fiber. So then I took a 104 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 3: couple steps back and I looked at the bed. I 105 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 3: still use a sleep number bed. They're not an advertiser anymore, 106 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 3: but I still use the sleep number bed. 107 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: And I wasn't in it. I was not in it. 108 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 3: I was standing in the hallway of what had become 109 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 3: overnight the lost episode of Shit's Creek. Here I was 110 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 3: sitting in the lost episode of Shits Creek. I'm looking around, like, 111 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,119 Speaker 3: where is Eugene Levy? Where the f is Eugene Levy? 112 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 3: I know he's here somewhere. 113 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 1: Where is he? Where is he? 114 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 3: You can't have the lost episode of Shit's Creek without 115 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 3: Eugene Levy. So slowly I did the walk of shame. Downstairs. 116 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 3: I was looking for what I was convinced was a 117 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 3: broken sewer pipe, and I thought, well, maybe not that. 118 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 3: Maybe it was a like a chemical spill. I don't 119 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 3: know that I had any chemicals to spill. I was 120 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,559 Speaker 3: looking for answers. I needed an explanation. I was willing 121 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 3: to contact the Department of Energy. Maybe they knew something. 122 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 3: And I figured, well, my day will be spent on 123 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 3: the phone waiting for the people from Rodo Ruter to 124 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 3: come fix what was going on. 125 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: But it wasn't a pipe. It was not a pipe. 126 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: It was it wasn't a human. It was Moxie, who. 127 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 3: Now, if you're new to these parts on the podcast, 128 00:07:55,920 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 3: Moxie is my pal. Moxie's the one that helped me 129 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 3: get the show ready and also is an English bulldog. 130 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 3: Now she is under normal circumstances, a majestic creature. 131 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: You can just stare at Moxie be like, wow, that's crazy. 132 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 3: She has the face of a very grumpy looking, sad 133 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 3: Victorian pugilist who's lost every fight, and the temperament of 134 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 3: a sleeping bear, just mellow and just wonderful. And however, 135 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 3: on this morning, Moxy was suffering from what can only 136 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 3: be described as the poop loop, not to be get 137 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 3: confused with the vomit comet, the poop loop. And there 138 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,839 Speaker 3: were two giant mountains. When I opened my eyes and 139 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 3: I walked downstairs, there were two giant mountains. 140 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: We'll call them evidence. 141 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 3: And these things were the size and I don't want 142 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:55,559 Speaker 3: to be too dramatic for the podcast, but these things 143 00:08:55,559 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 3: were the size of the Petrona's twin towers and Kuala Lumpur. 144 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking about. 145 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 3: You've see those things, those giant towers in Kuala Lumpar. Anyway, 146 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 3: they were not made of steel, they were not man made. 147 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 3: This was a scene right out of a horror movie. 148 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 3: Poopa Geddon, Poopa Geddon. And if that whack a doodle. 149 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:24,239 Speaker 3: Stephen King up there in Maine wrote about canine Gastriel 150 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 3: intestinal problems. This would be the cover. This would be 151 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 3: the cover of his next horror horror book. It was foul, 152 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 3: It was repulsive. It was over the top, pungent. It 153 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 3: was a stench that I will not forget. 154 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: I get. It was overwhelming. 155 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 3: The entire house, the entire Malor mansion, a steaming dump 156 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 3: for the ages. 157 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: It was the kind of smell. 158 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 3: That doesn't just sit in the air. It is the air, right, 159 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 3: it unpacked, it's bags. It's like, hey, can I get 160 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 3: the Wi Fi password? I'm gonna be here a while. 161 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 3: And so I'm looking at this, and then I look 162 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 3: off to the right and there she was, the dog 163 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 3: of interest. Moxie sat right near the crime scene. She 164 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 3: gave me those sweet puppy dog guys as only an 165 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 3: English bulldog can do. You know, those those puppy dog 166 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 3: guys are just amazing. And I asked her, I said, Moxie, how. 167 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: Could you do this? Right? What happened? Hey? What led 168 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: to this? 169 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 3: And unfortunately Moxie at that point chose to remain silent. 170 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: She did not bark. 171 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 3: She invoked her Miranda rights, She refused to incriminate herself. 172 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: She just sat there looking at me with the look 173 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 1: of who me? 174 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 3: She had that experience, Oh what do you me? Come on, 175 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 3: I'm just a sweet innocent bulldog. All I do is 176 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 3: fart and sleep. And there she was standing right next 177 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 3: to the biological hazard. This was not just your normal 178 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 3: dog pool. This was a hazmat situation. I had to 179 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 3: activate the MiB. The Mather Investigation operation was underway, the 180 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 3: Mouth Investigative Bureau, and I put on my metaphorical trench coat. 181 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 3: I had the kid grab the cleaning tools, preparing for 182 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 3: a tactical assault on the living room floor and also 183 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 3: in the kitchen. Now, as a reasonable investigator who watched 184 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 3: many episodes of the first forty eight, I knew that 185 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 3: Moxie did not act alone. This was not some kind 186 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 3: of lone wolf operation. A dog does not just produce 187 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 3: the poop loop out of thin air. There had to 188 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 3: be an accomplished. There had to be some kind of 189 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 3: criminal mastermind. And I began as a member of the MiB, 190 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 3: the Mather Investigator Bureau. I began interviewing witnesses and it 191 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 3: didn't take long for me to find out who was responsible. 192 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 3: As an accomplice, my wife, so I said, leaning against 193 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 3: the counter, trying not to gag as the smell was 194 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 3: still there. I told her, I said, listen, can you 195 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 3: explain to me again about that new diet that you 196 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:25,079 Speaker 3: gave Moxie. Well, it turns out that in a fit 197 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 3: of trying to be health conscious, my dear old wife 198 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 3: decided that Moxie needed a new healthier diet with homemade foods. 199 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 3: You see, she had read on the interweb, the world 200 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 3: Wide Web, that this is important, and as we know, 201 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 3: the Internet is never wrong. It is never wrong. The Internet, 202 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 3: the Internet told her that bulldogs love pumpkin. Pumpkin's good 203 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 3: for them. I eat pumpkin. It's natural, It's what wolves 204 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 3: ate in the whild some kind of bull crap like that, 205 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 3: presumably right before they invented the pumpkin spice latte out 206 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 3: there for Starbucks. So she cooked up some ground beef, 207 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 3: not a little bit of ground beef, like five pounds 208 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 3: of ground beef. And then she found a can of pumpkin. 209 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 3: Not just a spoonful of pumpkin, no, she gave the dog, 210 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 3: but seemingly was an entire pumpkin. She fed the dog, 211 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 3: Moxie a Thanksgiving dinner for a family of twelve and 212 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 3: then somewhat surprised when nature took its course for a 213 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:33,719 Speaker 3: Category five hurricane. 214 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: Now, listen, this is a teachable moment. You learn from 215 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: my in competence. 216 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 3: You learn from the Malar mansions descent into a poopfest. So, 217 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 3: no matter how beautiful, how majestic, or how much your 218 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 3: bulldog looks like a wrinkled little angel dropped in from heaven, 219 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 3: do not, and I repeat this, do not feed it 220 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 3: an entire family size can a pumpkin. 221 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: Do not, I. 222 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 3: Repeat this, Do not give your dog pounds of ground 223 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 3: beef unless you want your house to smell like an 224 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 3: outhouse for the next forty eight hours. You keep the 225 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 3: squash away from the canine. Now, it took every window, 226 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 3: and not exaggerating every window in the house being opened. 227 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 3: It took fans. It took soapy bubbles scrub a dub dub. 228 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 3: It took a level of industrial strength for breeze that 229 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 3: probably damaged the ozone layer. I apologize in advanced Now. Slowly, 230 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 3: it took time the Malor mansion began to smell less 231 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 3: like a Kentucky State fair porta potty and more like 232 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 3: home again. 233 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: So I'm going to be going on eBay at some. 234 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 3: Point later today, and I will try to find a 235 00:14:54,640 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 3: slightly used professional grade hazmat suit for the next time 236 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 3: that doggy dysentery kicks in and Moxie needs to enjoy 237 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 3: the poopy fest. So meanwhile, Moxie's not concerned. She's currently 238 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 3: napping off to my left. It appears she has no regrets. 239 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 3: She will not be facing any kind of criminal punishment 240 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 3: because she's in California, so crime is allowed. 241 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: And she is. 242 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 3: Now the goat of the poopy loopy. Yeah, the poop loop, 243 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 3: the poopy loopy, all right. Meanwhile, turning the pitch, it 244 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 3: is the Saturday Podcast. The Saturday Podcast, which means a 245 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 3: Life of malor update, Life. 246 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: Of malleor updates. 247 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 3: So you know about my defining trauma of the week, 248 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 3: Moxie and the Towers of Pooh. The Towers of Pooh, 249 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 3: So I had some other drama. We talked a little 250 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 3: bit about this last weekend on this podcast in previous episodes. 251 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 3: It was the day my mic turned off. Yeah, well 252 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 3: it kind of did. Let me explain, so not metaphorically, 253 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 3: not emotionally mechanically. So last weekend the fifth hour podcast 254 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 3: on Saturday, So a week ago from today. Sounded like 255 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 3: it was recorded inside a thermis, a Stanley thermis that 256 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 3: had been rolled down a gravel driveway. That's what it sounds. 257 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 3: I mean, that's what I was told. Few the proud, 258 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 3: the Malard militia who listened to this, boots on the ground, 259 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 3: big names. There were celebrities, a lot of no names 260 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 3: who reached out to me. I say that with all 261 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 3: due respect. People reached out to me and they're like, 262 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 3: they acted like I had no idea what was going on. 263 00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 3: They said, you know your podcast it was described as 264 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:06,679 Speaker 3: rinky dink? Was the was the word is rinky dink. 265 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 3: One gentleman who did not sign his name had a 266 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 3: Gmail account, suggested that I was broadcasting from a couple 267 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 3: of ZIP codes away and then I, instead of a microphone, 268 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 3: I had a kazoo. Now I'm happy to report I 269 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 3: do not have a kazoo, so that is not reality. 270 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 3: Another correspondence asked if we had pivoted now to using 271 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 3: Civil War era audio technology. 272 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 1: Yes. 273 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 3: Yes, the people at iHeart had decided that the podcast 274 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:43,360 Speaker 3: needed to go old school and go back in time. 275 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 3: Reminds me of a story years ago when I was 276 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 3: doing stuff with the Dodgers. We were in Wrigley Field 277 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 3: playing the Cubs. It was a doubleheader because the game 278 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 3: had been canceled previously that year because some Dodger players 279 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 3: went into the crowd to get a hat back a 280 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 3: Cub fan had stolen a hat, and there was this 281 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 3: big melee and the. 282 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: Game they had to replay a game. 283 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:09,879 Speaker 3: It was a big mess anyway, that particular game, Fox 284 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 3: decided let's do a throwback broadcast of Major League Baseball. 285 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: Okay, sounds good. Why not? 286 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 3: So they did the throwback thing and they ended up 287 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 3: showing part of the game in black and white because 288 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 3: they want to show how the original baseball broadcasts were 289 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 3: done in black and white. And so yes, we on 290 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 3: the podcast said we're not going to go black and white, 291 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 3: We'll go civil war audio, which I think is just 292 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 3: someone screaming. 293 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 1: I think just yelling. That's it. Now. 294 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 3: I briefly considered framing that message. You know, it was 295 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 3: a social experiment. It was just a social experiment. This 296 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 3: was a loyalty test. As I often say, the point 297 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 3: of demarcation for those that consume this podcast, and that 298 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 3: would be you, you are a true p one. You have 299 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 3: gone out of your way to find a podcast that 300 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 3: is not available, it's not promoted. It's available, was obviously 301 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 3: not promoted mainstream like a lot of the big name podcasters. 302 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,199 Speaker 3: You have to find it, you have to want to 303 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 3: listen to it. That is a that is a commitment. 304 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 3: You are true p one. Right, Let's see who the 305 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 3: real p ones are. Well, you're a real p one. However, 306 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:26,199 Speaker 3: this was not some avant garde performance are. This was 307 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 3: the thing of a jig yet again, popping up the 308 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 3: thing of a jig. Now the thing of a jig, 309 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 3: an otherwise innocent piece of audio equipment, a cable, apparently 310 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 3: decided it needed attention. 311 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,119 Speaker 1: You see, there was a loose. 312 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 3: Wire that somehow disengaged from the remote studio microphone that then, 313 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 3: for some reason, and I don't know how this happened, 314 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 3: activated a backup microphone that I didn't even know I had, that, 315 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 3: judging by the acoustics of the product, was stationed somewhere 316 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 3: just south of Micronesia was where that backup microphone was, 317 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 3: and probably underwater, probably underwater. And as the overnight guy, 318 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 3: my entire career, my paycheck is built on a very 319 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 3: radical premise that when I speak into these microphones, you 320 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 3: can hear me. It's like a Verizon commercial. Can you 321 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 3: hear me now? Can you hear me now? So I 322 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 3: don't have lighting cues, I don't have people writing notes 323 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 3: for me and things like that, or you know often 324 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 3: during the overnight show, I have no one helping me 325 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 3: at all. 326 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: You know, that's it. There's no wardrobe changes that you know. 327 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 3: So I have a voice and a slightly aggressive opinion 328 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 3: about Sam Darnold, which has upset the Seahawk Marching in 329 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 3: Chowder society led by Nostradina and JJ and Rettin. 330 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: And Crying Craig. 331 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 3: So when the audio quality collapses, I collapse with it. 332 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 3: Right the microphone. I think it sensed fatigue. 333 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: I believe that. 334 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 3: Again, I'm recording these things at hours that are reserved 335 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:26,479 Speaker 3: for conspiracy theorists and crackhead Bob. So it saw a 336 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 3: weakness sleep deprived dude, and said, this is my moment, 337 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 3: this is my moment, and equipment can smell weakness. There's 338 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 3: science behind that, not good science, but there's science about that. 339 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 3: And naturally, I woke up to an inbox that resembled 340 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 3: an angry town hall meeting, you know that city council 341 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 3: meeting where people are just wild. What kind of low 342 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 3: rent operation is? What do you hire a new staff 343 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 3: get a better mic microphone? 344 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 2: Ben sucks. 345 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 3: Now, I do enjoy the assumption that microphones are out there, 346 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,679 Speaker 3: and it was clearly the microphone's fault fault, not the cable. 347 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 3: But you just go on the open market and I 348 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 3: can make a competitive free agent offer. I have enough 349 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 3: money under the salary cap, and I thought, as you know, 350 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 3: clearly I've been low balling those five star condenser microphones 351 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 3: and that's the problem. So anyway, we fixed it, meet 352 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 3: ball surgery. Now, when I say we fixed it, I 353 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 3: mean Danny G Radio. I said, Danny, figure this out, 354 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 3: who heroically cleaned up as best he could, which means 355 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 3: as good as all the rest the audio quality, likely 356 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 3: whispering very nasty affirmations, oh go at the equipment there 357 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:58,360 Speaker 3: and cursing my name. And we believed that the crisis 358 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 3: was behind us. And then, because the universe enjoys symmetry, 359 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 3: the Original Recipe radio show had its own hiccup. Now, 360 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 3: if you were listening to the podcast on the Original Recipe, 361 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 3: not this podcast, the Original Recipe delivered a very dramatic 362 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,120 Speaker 3: introduction to a caller, as I'm known to do, very 363 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 3: bold resident Shakespearean and then. 364 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:25,640 Speaker 1: Nothing bupkus. 365 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 3: And I learned this when I woke up. Listeners heard 366 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 3: me tee up a call and then nothing. Somewhere in 367 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 3: the mothership. This was not the remote studio. This was 368 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 3: not the remote studio. I was in the main studio. 369 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 3: Someone hit the do hickey, not the thing of a jig, 370 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 3: the do hickey, and I didn't even. 371 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: Know this was possible. I had no idea. However, I 372 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,679 Speaker 1: now know it is. Well. I don't know exactly what 373 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: they did. 374 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 3: They muted the caller's voices into the sound of silence. 375 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 3: That means I would say, hey, let's go to the 376 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,199 Speaker 3: Redneck Rivira. Jed who Fled is on the Ben Mathers Show, 377 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 3: And then you had to figure out was Jed who 378 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 3: fled discussing crack, fentanyl or his love of Glenn Beck. 379 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 3: And then I go, Mike the Leprecaun, Hello, Mike the Leprecaun, 380 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:18,880 Speaker 3: You're on the show. And then you say I can't 381 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,439 Speaker 3: hear him. Maybe he's marinating in sunscreen or doing a 382 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 3: dad joke that got deleted. And then I go, let's 383 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,120 Speaker 3: go to Minneapolis, Miniso Tuck. Can we say a little 384 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 3: hollering James, Sure there's James. Is he snoring or offering 385 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 3: commentary about Eric sleepy Floyd? 386 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. You couldn't hear it. 387 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:42,719 Speaker 3: It became the match game, the existential addition, fill in 388 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,880 Speaker 3: the blank, imagine whatever you want the callers to say, 389 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,360 Speaker 3: your own chaos. Now, keep in mind, did not discover 390 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 3: this until I woke up again to a digital mob 391 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 3: of torches and pitchforks and wanted to tar and feather 392 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 3: me in and me out of time. Now there is 393 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 3: something uniquely humbling about opening your eyes and immediately learning 394 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 3: you have failed sound. You've failed at sound. Now, I 395 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 3: would rather have this than what happened with Moxie. Just 396 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 3: for the record, I would rather wake up to this 397 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,199 Speaker 3: than wake up to the smell I woke up to 398 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:24,119 Speaker 3: as well. Now people ask why we don't do a 399 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 3: full video podcast. I've had people reach out to me 400 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 3: and say I'd like to watch the podcast. Why don't 401 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 3: we do a video thing like JT the Wingman, guys 402 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 3: like that. So there are cameras in the main studio. 403 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,199 Speaker 3: Everything is recorded for YouTube. It's twenty twenty six. The 404 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 3: Ben Mather Show YouTube channel, and apparently faces are currency. 405 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 3: Here's the secret, though, and most people don't know this. 406 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:52,719 Speaker 3: The percentage of those that watch podcasts. 407 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 1: Is not zero, but it's very low. 408 00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 3: That most people listen in the car or on the 409 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 3: treadmill while assembling furniture, questioning their existence doing the. 410 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 1: Honeydew List as well. 411 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 3: Now, there are some people in the industry that claim 412 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:16,679 Speaker 3: that it's less than ten percent actually consume video podcast 413 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 3: less than ten percent, which means like ninety percent still 414 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 3: embrace theater of the mind, theater of the mind radio imagination. 415 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:35,439 Speaker 3: If you're picturing Jed who fled, you can do it 416 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 3: however you choose. 417 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: You can make Jed look like. 418 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 3: A cookie monster, or you could make him look like 419 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:49,679 Speaker 3: the burger Kin guy, or whoever you want. It's your choice. 420 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 3: It's your imagination. That's great, you can do what you 421 00:26:54,000 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 3: want with that. Now, video would require proper posture, lighting, 422 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 3: self awareness, all of those things, and to me, doing 423 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 3: the Overnight Show, self awareness is option. 424 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: I just let it rip. I just let it rip now. Still, 425 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: I am not. 426 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 3: Dogmatic when it comes to this issue, and I am 427 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 3: more than willing to adapt. I believe that Darwinism is 428 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 3: true you must adapt or you will die. 429 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: So I'm willing to adapt. 430 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 3: If someone, let's say, I don't know from Netflix, showed 431 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 3: up at my door and had several bags of money, 432 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 3: money man and manny and said, hey, hey, Malard, let's 433 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 3: recreate that famous scene from the movie Dance Spider Dance, 434 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,919 Speaker 3: I would say, Okay, you don't have to ask twice. 435 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 3: I will tap dance with enthusiasm. I believe principles are important. 436 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 3: I've talked about the Code of the West. I also 437 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 3: believe that paying your mortgage is more important, and that's 438 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 3: more important now until then. Until then, I will solely 439 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 3: remain in the audio business. Otherwise when outside of when 440 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 3: I'm forced to have the videos put up on YouTube 441 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 3: at the mothership. But a business, the audio business, that 442 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 3: is so fragile, so fragile that a single loose wire, 443 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:32,880 Speaker 3: the thing of a jig can unravel it like a 444 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 3: sweater thread. 445 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 1: Pretty wild, you know. 446 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 3: And we have artificial intelligence and self driving cars and 447 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 3: all this stuff, And on some level it is oddly 448 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 3: comforting that the greatest threat to my livelihood, my ability. 449 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: To do my job is a rebellious. 450 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 3: Cable cable, not a microphone, not a microphone, a cable right, 451 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 3: not war or not politics, not any of that, not 452 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 3: the stock. 453 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: Market going up or down.
