Speaker 1: Cutbooms.

2
00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 2: If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

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

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

6
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,480
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse.

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:18,400

Speaker 1: the Crayola cra There are other crayon companies, but they're

21
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,520

00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 3: Creola tasted better too, the green ones especially.

23
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, the perfect meal. When I was in like second

24
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 1: or third grade, was my main course was the Crayola crayon,

25
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: and I had a side dish of Elmer's gluue.

26
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 3: I knew you were going to say glue, and I

27
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 3: let it dry on your fingers.

28
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I'd pour it all over my fingers.

29

Speaker 1: The teacher me, ben Benji, Benji, you're making a mess. Benji,

00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 1: it is okay, all right, And then I'd let it dry.

31
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 3: And then I just it's better than eating your own boogers.

32
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 3: I can't tell you how many pre k and k's

33
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,920

00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 3: wash their hands.

35
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: Hey, there are people I've worked with in radio Danny

36
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: that would eat their boogers while on a remote chowd

37
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: down and a little bite, little bite, little taste, little taste,

41
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: Some of them are too salty, though, Well, anything with

42
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: potatoes is the proper. There's a sweet spot right, the

43
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,359
Speaker 1: proper amount of salt and all that and whatnot. Well,

44
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: today is all about one thing and one thing only, Danny.

45
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:43,120

Speaker 1: Facebook page Ben Malor Show. That is Ben Mahler's show

59
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: on the Facebook page. And the first email we have

60
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: is from Barry, formerly in Nashville but now in South Carolina.

61
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: He says, yo yo ma, Benny. Sort of a sporto question,

62
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 1: he says. But with the start of the Major League

63
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: Baseball season this week, he says, I do not count

64
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: the Korea Bowl crap, He says, Barry, it seems like

65
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 1: Major League baseball is becoming more and more like senior softball,

66
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: where to avoid any type of collision and injury, they

67
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:18,280
Speaker 1: have two home plates and double first bases. You don't

68
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: have any tag plays at home, the fielders stay at

69
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:26,799
Speaker 1: normal at normal home the runner goes to the second

70
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: home plate. If the ball beats you to home, you

71
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: are out. And then Barry says, how long before Major

72
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: League baseball becomes like a senior league with all these

73
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: dumb rules, says.

74
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 3: We heard this all week, but about the NFL, JJ

75
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 3: Watt and other's saying NFL should just play flag football.

76
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: Well, that NFL stuff is pretty the kick you see

77
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: the kickoff the video, the kickoff, it looks like a glitch,

78
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: like the XFL style kickoff.

79
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not denying that some of the rule changes the.

80
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 1: Hip the hip rock. I thought our guy LeVar Arrington

81
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 1: summed it up great where he said that this is

82
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: the end of greatness, this is the end.

83
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 3: And superstar defenders. Yeah, and I agree that was his point.

84
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,720
Speaker 3: That was his point. But we're not ever going to

85
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 3: get to the point where they play flag football. Give

86
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 3: me a break. No, it's not. It's not the Pro Bowl,

87
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 3: Pro Bowl, I get it, regular season, in playoffs, in

88
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 3: Super Bowl, No, it's going to be tackling.

89
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: Hold on second if they can wear the helmets and

90
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 1: the pads. But add a how about two hand touch?

91
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: Maybe not flag football, but two hand touch.

92
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 3: How about the oh man, we better be dead if

93
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 3: they go to.

94
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: The Eventually that will happen. But yeah, but as far

95
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 1: as as far as Barr's questions concerned, So my favorite

96
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: part of this, Barry, is that baseball has done all

97
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: of this not because they want the game to be faster,

98
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,479
Speaker 1: because they want a better experience for the fans, not

99
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: because it's a better product. It's not because that they

100
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 1: did this because they want to keep the Golden goose happy.

101
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 1: The television overlords and you know this probably already Beary,

102
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,039
Speaker 1: I'm preaching the choir, But the people that control the

103
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: purse strings in television, they're the ones that said, hey,

104
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,679
Speaker 1: wait a minute, you know we want a quicker product.

105
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,039
Speaker 1: We're not getting return on our investment. So over the

106
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 1: last five to ten years, this actually predates rob manfraud

107
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 1: goes back to bud's Selik because they got rid of

108
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: the play at the plate while Bud Selik was still

109
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: the commissioner of Baseball. They got rid of the play

110
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 1: at second base with rob Manfraud as the commission But

111
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 1: as I understand it, all of these rules were placed

112
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: to make the product more appealing to television. And the

113
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,039
Speaker 1: kick in the nuts to baseball this week was the

114
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 1: report that ESPN is looking to get out of a

115
00:06:55,720 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: baseball business. Now Fox is the main broadcaster of baseball,

116
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: but ESPN supplemented that they had a deal where they

117
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 1: do Sunday night Baseball and they carried a couple of

118
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 1: games throughout the week, and they're supposedly getting out of it,

119
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: which is just the ultimate in your face, because Danny,

120
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: they literally did this to appease, to pacify the people

121
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: that do television, and some of them have already rejected

122
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: and that they're like, we're good, we'll spend our money elsewhere.

123
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: So pretty pretty well. But you are right, Barry, Like

124
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: the most exciting plays in baseball the takeout play at

125
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: home plate by far the most exciting. The anticipation will

126
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 1: to throw make it in time? Will the catcher be

127
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: able to block the plate? Is the runner going to

128
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 1: take out the catcher? And you can see it when

129
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: you're in the stadium. It was awesome, much like the kickoff, Dan,

130
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 1: if you go to an NFL game and that excitement

131
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 1: where you can see the blocking, you can see the

132
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: path opening up for the kick returner. Will he see

133
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: the hole? Will he get through the hole? And if

134
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: he gets through the hole, will anyone be able to

135
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 1: chase him from behind and get him? You know, all

136
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: of that is just tremendous theater. And you know people

137
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 1: like your son Cole will not experience that because it

138
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 1: doesn't exist anymore. It's gone, which is disappointing. Disappointing anyway,

139
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: Alf from the Wall of Sound rites and he says,

140
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to get sporty, Ben and Danny, but I

141
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: was wondering what Daddy Gee's position is. Daddy on which

142
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 1: feet is more impressive? The Lakers Mickey Mouse ring in

143
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: a bubble? He says, insert the bubble drop here? Or

144
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 1: the hardest World Series ever? When the Dodgers won in

145
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: a sixty game season. He says, that's the question you

146
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 1: haven't answer.

147
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 3: It's such a stupid question.

148
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: Well, we know the Dodgers is I think the hardest

149
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: actually is that.

150
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 3: If it was even harder for the Dodgers to win

151
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,319
Speaker 3: that season. Then logical it was even harder for the

152
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 3: Lakers to win that season as as well.

153
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: It was easier again, let me explain, Let me explain.

154
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 1: All right, So one sport you had three months to

155
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 1: rest your body after the grind it get healthy.

156
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 3: Only the three months off.

157
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: Yea, they needed it more. They had the older, older rosters,

158
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 1: they had the older rusherybody had level playing field covering

159
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: and then and then the other one is a sport

160
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: designed you go la la la, la la la. That's

161
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: how the said, do you kicking, kicking their feet up,

162
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: relaxing one hundred and sixty two games. But no, this

163
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 1: is sprint. This is a sprint. You lose one player,

164
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 1: it's over it, You're done. You're cooked so much harder

165
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 1: in baseball that year than it was in basketball, and.

166
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 3: No home court advantage. You don't take wins away from teams.

167
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 3: That's just how it goes in all sports. You win,

168
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 3: you win now.

169
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: But I will concede though, Dan, and I'll be fair.

170
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: You know I one thing about me. My middle name

171
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 1: is fair Dight Ben Fair Mallar. And that seven game

172
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: title the Lakers got at the end of twenty twenty three,

173
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: that that impressive.

174
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 3: That was so good.

175
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 1: I mean that, what was it called the in season tournament?

176
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 1: They hung their little banner. That was so impressive. I

177
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: was impressed by that.

178
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,319
Speaker 3: Still more banners than your favorite.

179
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: Team to have the Hootz, but a hag a banner

180
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 1: after seven games. Now. Alf also says I just wanted

181
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: to hear the bubble drop. It's my favorite and Roberto

182
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 1: had mastered it. So that's from Alf. So he just

183
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: wanted to hear Babo.

184
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 3: I'll give him a drop right now, blank my blank

185
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 3: and blank you all right?

186
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 1: Next up, mister, I bet you will. Mister Luciana Wright

187
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 1: said too the mail bag, he says, this question is

188
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: for both Ben and Danny. Do you guys think they'll

189
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 1: ever legalize gambling in California? Also, if they don't, do

190
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: you think Nevada has something to.

191
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:03,119
Speaker 3: Do with it? That's from mister No, it's not Nevada.

192
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, we've been over this before in the past, mister Lusiano,

193
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 1: but it's the Indian casino.

194
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 3: The Indian casinos are controlling those prop measures, and so

195
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 3: we've seen in the past that that would hurt their business.

196
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 3: And then the major players that you mentioned last weekend.

197
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:28,199
Speaker 1: The big companies DraftKings and FanDuel. They wanted in a

198
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: couple of years ago, they had it on the ballot,

199
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 1: and then the Indian casinos spent so much money, and

200
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 1: this is proof it's kind of scary. If you spend

201
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,319
Speaker 1: enough money, you can win any kind of vote you want. Yes, sir,

202
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 1: they spent all this money showing these poor Indian people

203
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: and how they you know gambling was going to be bad, which.

204
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 3: Is they spent millions of dollars on this ad campaign,

205
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 3: by the way.

206
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and they spent enough money they convinced the

207
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 1: dumb voters in California to vote to ban sports gambling.

208
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: But I was told that I think either later this

209
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 1: year or early in twenty twenty five, there's supposed to

210
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: be another round of legislation that'll be on the ballot,

211
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,439
Speaker 1: and this one is going to be by the Indian casinos,

212
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,199
Speaker 1: which means since they'll be getting a bigger piece of

213
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,559
Speaker 1: the pie, or control the gambling sports gambling market in California,

214
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: that then they'll they're not going to spend money to

215
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 1: vote against it, They're going to spend money to get it,

216
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 1: and that means that it's more likely to pass unless.

217
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 3: So, in other words, you can go in and legally

218
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 3: they can legally have like a big sports book added

219
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 3: to their casino.

220
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, like we're in La like a Commers casino or

221
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: something like that. As I and I maybe I'm completely wrong,

222
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: but as I was told the story, they would have

223
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 1: these things around. They'd also have the mobile betting, so

224
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: you wouldn't even have to go in, which is so

225
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: nice when you have it on your phone, but also

226
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,319
Speaker 1: very dangerous. Yeah, very dangerous when you have your own

227
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 1: I find set.

228
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 3: A fan duel, it'll be shoemash duel on your phone.

229
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, something like that, something like that. So that's

230
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 1: the deal with mister Luciano. It should be the next

231
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: couple of years. But the conspiracy for a long time

232
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 1: was that Nevada did not want it. But it is

233
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 1: interesting to note that there are only twelve states left

234
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: that do not have legalized sports betting in America. Only twelve, right,

235
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: most of them in the Bible Belt in California and

236
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: a few other ones. And what they've found out is

237
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 1: people still love going to Vegas though even though they

238
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 1: can bet on sports in their backyard. That there's still

239
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 1: people that make the pilgrimage to Vegas. It's like the

240
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:37,319
Speaker 1: adult playground. Now. Whether that'll continue in future generations, who knows.

241
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 1: Maybe that will not, but right now it hasn't hurt

242
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,439
Speaker 1: their business. There's still a bunch of out of towners, like, Hey,

243
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,679
Speaker 1: look at your Raiders, Danny. When the Raiders play the Eagles,

244
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 1: there's a million dudes from Philadelphia who are making the trip,

245
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: even though they can bet in the Philadelphia area, and

246
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 1: they're coming over from Philly to go to Vegas to

247
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 1: be part of the experience or any of those other

248
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 1: stities around the country where gambling is legal. So interesting,

249
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 1: Mike and Fullerton writes in on the mail bag. He says, Hi,

250
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 1: Ben and Danny g last week you wanted to know

251
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: who the new Brad Pitt is going to be. I'm

252
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: not sure if this is going to catch on or not,

253
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: but Mike and Fullerton says, in my group of friends,

254
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 1: at least our new go to name for a guy

255
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: with Hollywood heartthrob looks is Fox Sports radio host Ben Maler. Well,

256
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: thank you, Mike. I appreciate that. It's a fine tribute.

257
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 3: That doesn't make any sense because your age is not

258
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 3: far off from Brad Pitt's how dare you?

259
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 1: Mike also says, I want to congratulate your Dodgers Ben

260
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 1: on being Cactus League champions for twenty twenty four. Do

261
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: you think they should hang a banner to celebrate? If not, why,

262
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 1: I'd argue that winning the Cactus League is a whole

263
00:14:56,280 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: lot more impressive than winning the NBA's in season tournament.

264
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 1: And the Lakers hung a banner for that, Yeah, go ahead,

265
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 1: hang your little Where would they hang the banner?

266
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 3: Who would that?

267
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: Where would that go? At Dodger Stadium?

268
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 3: Probably in one of the stalls, Put.

269
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 1: That in one of the urinals. Yeah, at Dodger Stadium.

270
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 1: It'd be a good looking banner. I saw they pulled

271
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: out this Japanese bell. Did you see that? This at

272
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: home now for Dodger games? That was gifted to the

273
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: Dodgers from Japan in like the nineteen sixties, and they

274
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: this thing has been in storage since like the nineteen sixties,

275
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 1: I heard, or whatever, and they're they're dusting it off

276
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 1: at Dodger Stadium. Who else have Georgia and Uvalde, Texas

277
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: rights into the mailbag, he says, with Otani going full

278
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: blown Sergeant Schultz from Hogan's Heroes. What is the most

279
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: inappropriate sitcom in history? Which sitcom did you watch in

280
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: your youth that would never be remade today?

281
00:15:55,480 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 3: Oh, that's easy. Threes company talking about phobia, and it

282
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 3: was such a different time because it was so crazy

283
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 3: to everybody that he would have a female roommate or

284
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 3: two female roommates. Oh my god, he's not married to

285
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 3: either of them, and so he had to pretend like

286
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 3: he was gay so that he could have female roommates.

287
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: Yeah. The one that would be easy to remake would

288
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: be remember when Tom Hanks was it.

289
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 3: Busom Buddies someboddies.

290
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's mainstream though back then it was taboo. But now,

291
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: you know, dressing as a woman, you do whatever.

292
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 3: You want because they could easily be transformers and accepted. Well,

293
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 3: what was the Archie Archie Archie Bunker.

294
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that was a bad one.

295
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 3: It was satire, but yeah, I couldn't get away with it.

296
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 3: Now people can't handle sat You could do that on

297
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 3: HBO or one of the you know, one of the

298
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 3: streamed platforms.

299
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: But a certain percentage of people do not get sarcasm

300
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: and satire. And you know, Danny right from doing what

301
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: we do for a living. And those people now have

302
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,120
Speaker 1: a megaphone with social media. So it seems like.

303
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,919
Speaker 3: That why I can't play the Necro Brothers drop.

304
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: Well, again, I don't know what you're talking about. There

305
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: was Phil Nkro and Joe Nicro.

306
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 3: But I want to play the drop. And I heard

307
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 3: that iHeart says no to that drop, that it's outlawed.

308
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,400
Speaker 1: No comment? Next question? Uh, next, next one. How about

309
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 1: the Jefferson's. You probably could make the Jeffersons Upper east

310
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 1: Side Penthouse in the sky? Uh? Nick in Whiskey trying.

311
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,400
Speaker 3: To spin off from Archie Bunker's show by the way.

312
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: Uh huh Nick and Wisconsin rights And he says, Ben

313
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:45,199
Speaker 1: and Danny, if you could own an exotic pet, what

314
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 1: would you choose? When I was younger, I always wanted

315
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: a monkey like they had on Friends.

316
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 3: Shut up, you wanted wanted a monkey? Uh?

317
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 1: If I could have one that wouldn't kill me, that

318
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 1: I would would just have as a pet to impress people.

319
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: It'd be kind of cool to have an alligator. That'd

320
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 1: be pretty cool to have, like a pet alligat or

321
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: a rhino or elephant, one of those. What about you?

322
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: I'm guessing you're gonna go like some kind of like tigers.

323
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 3: Yah, dang, how'd you know? I know you?

324
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: I know you, man, Come on.

325
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 3: I grew up loving the movie Scarface, and of course

326
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 3: he had a pet tiger. Mike Tyson had some tigers. Yeah, man,

327
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 3: that would be so cool to have a tiger growling

328
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 3: on a chain in your backyard.

329
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,119
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, imagine imagine you're like a single guy with

330
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: a tiger. You would do so well? Yeah, or maybe not. Maybe,

331
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: like the women would be scared, come around, you.

332
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 3: Be scared you were going to feed them to your tiger.

333
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, that wouldn't go so well.

334
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 3: That is cool.

335
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: Did I hear somewhere that there are more it was

336
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 1: a certain kind of dangerous animal, that there are more

337
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: of them in captivity in Texas than there are in

338
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: the wild. I think it was like tigers or lions

339
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,880
Speaker 1: or something like that, that that in Texas you can

340
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: own them.

341
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 3: Is it a tiger? Let me, I think I've heard

342
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:08,399
Speaker 3: this before.

343
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, look at uh, we'll do we'll do a google

344
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 1: just google it. But I heard somebody was talking about

345
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 1: it this week, and I was like, that is amazing

346
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: that there are more of these things in captivity in

347
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: Texas than in the wild in the world. And I

348
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,919
Speaker 1: know Texas is big and a lot of people have

349
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 1: these big ranches out in the middle of nowhere. And

350
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: people think of Texas with Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio,

351
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: but a lot of Texas is empty.

352
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, in Texas, tigers can be kept as pets. There

353
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 3: are anywhere from two thousand to five thousand tigers living

354
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 3: in the state of Texas.

355
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 1: Damn, it was worried about the guns.

356
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're the second largest tiger population in the world.

357
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 3: India is the only place ahead of Texas.

358
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 1: I saw some videos out of India and it is insane,

359
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 1: Like there's tigers like walking around the street in these

360
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 1: little villages. Do you imagine, like we have bears here,

361
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 1: and we have these brown bears in California that'll walk around.

362
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 1: And if you live in the foothills.

363
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 3: And I've seen bobcats in my neighborhood, and tell me

364
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 3: you haven't seen the news story about the wildlife crossing

365
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 3: they're building in my neighborhood, the freeway overpass.

366
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great use of resources.

367
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, do you know how much that thing is costing?

368
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:28,440
Speaker 1: How much does that cost?

369
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 3: It's ninety three million dollars right now, and it could

370
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:32,920
Speaker 3: be more.

371
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 1: Why does it need to cost ninety three million? Couldn't

372
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 1: you get a couple of guys at home depot and

373
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: go out there on a weekend and get it done

374
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 1: Saturday and Sunday.

375
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 3: Yeah. If you don't know what I'm talking about, google

376
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:50,360
Speaker 3: wildlife crossing Agora Hills, California. It's spectacular. I mean, hey,

377
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,399
Speaker 3: I love animals, I love the zoo. I was at

378
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 3: the San Diego Zoo just last week, but last weekend.

379
00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 3: But one hundred million dollars for a bridge that I

380
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 3: don't know, two bobcats might cross over in three months?

381
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: Yeah? Did they realize the bobcats can't read and they

382
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: don't like know, Hey, that's for us. They'll go where

383
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: they want to go, Like, do they understand that concept?

384
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:13,879
Speaker 1: It's not a.

385
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,639
Speaker 3: Heard this complaint in the comments of uh well, I

386
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,200
Speaker 3: think it was Channel seven covering this story here locally

387
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 3: in southern California, and somebody wrote bobcats can't read and

388
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 3: then the person underneath said, hey, you big dummy. They're

389
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 3: writing the signs in bobcat man, so if it's in

390
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,399
Speaker 3: their language, then duh.

391
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: Well, these things cost so much money because it's just

392
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: it's payoffs right by politicians, Like there's no reason this

393
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: stuff should cost as much as it does. It's like

394
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 1: we was it with you or it was the last week,

395
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, we talked about that that

396
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 1: building in downtown near Staples Center, the building they got

397
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: tagged and they're gonna they're gonna clean it up, right,

398
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,679
Speaker 1: which is essentially just giving a blank canvas to the

399
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 1: people that come back and to tag it again.

400
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, so like shaking an etcha sketch.

401
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: Exactly, And it's gonna cost like tens of millions of

402
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,719
Speaker 1: dollars to get the graffiti off, and again you can

403
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 1: hire a couple of guys, get a power washer, and

404
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: get it done in a couple of days with the

405
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:18,920
Speaker 1: thousand dollars.

406
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:22,160
Speaker 3: All the uninformed people in the comments of these news

407
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 3: stories about the overpass are like, great job, congratulations, hallelujah.

408
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 3: We need more of these. There should be dozens of

409
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,400
Speaker 3: these in southern California. And I'm like, dozens of these,

410
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 3: you idiot, it's one hundred million dollars, no.

411
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,159
Speaker 1: Concept, and how many of those are like real? Are

412
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 1: those special interest groups that have hijacked in social media.

413
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, to be fair, not all of it is taxpayers money.

414
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 3: There's some you know, gift from some artsy person that.

415
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 1: Get some How about this, Danny, it's gonna be an

416
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: unpopular opinion, right, unpopular opinion. How about we spend that

417
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,400
Speaker 1: money on mental health for the people that are walking

418
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 1: around our cities like zombies and breaking into cars. Yes,

419
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 1: and cut by, thank you.

420
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,199
Speaker 3: I'll say heymn, hallelujah to that. Or how about the

421
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 3: potholes that I bumd my tires into every single day

422
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,919
Speaker 3: on that damn freeway that's going underneath the new overpass

423
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 3: for the wild.

424
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:18,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, the potholes. We uhlude we didn't get rain in

425
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 1: LA for about ten years, and everyone said, oh, we're

426
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 1: never going to get rain again. And the last couple

427
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: of years we have had this al Nino thing which

428
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 1: has been tons of rain and it's absolutely destroyed and

429
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 1: those giant trucks have destroyed. Yes, the highways and byways

430
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 1: of California.

431
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 3: I cannot tell you how many damn huge potholes I

432
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 3: hit on the one on one freeway every day.

433
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 1: Oh, it's ridiculous. I drive there as well to go

434
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: in and and I all over the Hollywood Freeway. I

435
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 1: go on there, ridiculous.

436
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 3: If I saw Bobcat in the freeway, I would slow

437
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 3: my car down and stop and let it pass. Use

438
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 3: that money to fix the damn potholes. How about that? Yeah?

439
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: And plus the traffic never goes fast enough during the

440
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 1: day the bobcats are in danger. It just doesn't.

441
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 3: So yeah, they would weave through it, bumper to bumper traffic,

442
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 3: just like the motorcycles do.

443
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 1: Exactly, all right, cup fan Mike from Fort Wayne, Indiana writes,

444
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: and he says, what is your favorite board game? Guys?

445
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:20,160
Speaker 1: Board game? When your kid? I played all the big Ones,

446
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 1: I played Shoots and Ladders, Monopoly. I don't know if

447
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 1: this counts as a board game, but I love Checkers.

448
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 1: I love playing Checkers.

449
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 3: Yeah.

450
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: Smart, It wasn't smart enough for chess, but I love

451
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 1: checking Yeah.

452
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 3: I was gonna say it's not a board game either.

453
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 3: But we loved Uno. We could know we could play

454
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,719
Speaker 3: Uno for an hour straight.

455
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 1: A game I did not like as a child, but

456
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 1: I play a ton when I'm trying just to chill

457
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: out in my downtime. Is the game of scrabble, like

458
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,400
Speaker 1: I like. I love words and I have a good

459
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: time with Scraby, a scrabble game on my phone that

460
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 1: I play probably more than any other game.

461
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 3: My drunk uncle taught us how to play dominoes.

462
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 1: Oh did he he drinking dominos?

463
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 3: He was drinking Saint Id's Saint.

464
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: I's man back in the day. All right. Next up

465
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 1: Ozzie Wise from Western Australia. A loyal minion, He says,

466
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: I live in Western Australia, about five hours of a

467
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:21,680
Speaker 1: drive east of Perth, the capital of Australia. He said,

468
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 1: I got some fun facts for you about Australia. So

469
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 1: he sent me a lot of fun facts. Danny, I

470
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: don't think we're gonna have time to get to all these.

471
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: He sent me fifty fun facts. But I'll just cherry

472
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,199
Speaker 1: pick some of these and then we'll go through. How

473
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 1: about that that sounds good, right, We'll cherry pick some

474
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 1: fun facts.

475
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 3: Let's do it.

476
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 1: Let's see here. Ozzie Wah says the Australian Alps get

477
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 1: more snow than the Swiss Alps. But that I didn't

478
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: even know there was an Australian Alps. Did you know that?

479
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 1: I didn't know that.

480
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 3: I had no idea this one. I did No.

481
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 1: Ninety percent of Australians live on the coast. I was

482
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 1: aware of that. I watched a documentary Ozzie was on

483
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 1: Your Fine Country and they explane that there's not enough water.

484
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: If they can figure out a way to get fresh

485
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 1: drinking water into the middle part of Australia, there would

486
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:12,679
Speaker 1: be a massive boom of population. But it's got like

487
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,239
Speaker 1: the kind of the same deal that we have here

488
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 1: in America. You know how you there's that that point.

489
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: It's in the middle part of the country around the

490
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 1: Rocky Mountains, where the Rocky Mountains block the water from

491
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: coming over the Rocky Mountains. There's a lot of dryness

492
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: and not a lot of people. Like in Wyoming, in

493
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: places like that, no one lives there.

494
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 3: It's like a rock block.

495
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 1: Eighty percent of the population lives on the east coast

496
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 1: and the rest live on the west coast because that's

497
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 1: where the water is. And in that weird middle zone

498
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: where there's Wyoming, Nebraska, you know those those states kind

499
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 1: of in the mill Kansas is there. There's just not

500
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 1: enough water, as I understand it, because of the geography,

501
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 1: and that's why there's not people living. The same thing

502
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 1: in Australia. It says Tasmania has the cleanest air in

503
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:10,439
Speaker 1: the world. Is that true Tasmania. The only reason I

504
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 1: know that is the Tasmanian Devil. That's that's it. The

505
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:20,160
Speaker 1: Great Barrier reef, the world's largest ecosystem. Was it Eddie

506
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: that went? There's somebody I know went Eddie went to

507
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: the Great Barrier reef. I don't think he was that

508
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,120
Speaker 1: impressed because there's no hockey game.

509
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,880
Speaker 3: Mean bring back like some kangaroo jerky.

510
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 1: He actually did bring back a couple of weird things

511
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 1: in Australia. They are like local, local delicacy. What else

512
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 1: is here? Australia has over sixty separate wine regions. Okay,

513
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 1: let's see. The Fraser Island is the largest sand island

514
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: in the world. According to this from Ozzi waz page

515
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: down here, page down, eighty percent of Australian animals are

516
00:27:55,000 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 1: unique to Australia. Oh, how does that happen? Like the

517
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 1: kangaroo and those the different things that are only there. No,

518
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: you think somewhere else they would have popped up.

519
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:12,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, obviously they have a very tight screening as you

520
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 3: enter and leave their country.

521
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 1: Australia's home to twenty one of the world twenty five

522
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,960
Speaker 1: most venomous steaks, So you got that going for you

523
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: as well. Perth. We do very well in Perth. This

524
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: show does very well in Perth, Australia. The Overnight show

525
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 1: end this podcast and he says Perth is the only

526
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:32,879
Speaker 1: city in the world which can have aircraft land in

527
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 1: its CBD. Interesting. What else It would take take around

528
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: twenty nine years to visit one new Assie beach every day.

529
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 1: There are ten tho six hundred and eighty five beaches

530
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 1: in Australia. Holy it seems like a bit too much. Yeah,

531
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: this is like a little bit too much. Australia is

532
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 1: the sixth largest country in the world. Did you know that?

533
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 1: These are all fun? Fact? I can go on and on,

534
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: but thank you Ozzi Wise. See what you should have done,

535
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: Ozzi was in the future if you just sent us

536
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: a few of those every week, we would have probably

537
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 1: read them all. But you set them all in one

538
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 1: big dump here. Like you said, there's six hundred riders

539
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 1: of a eucalyptus trees in Australia.

540
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 3: It's pretty wild. I got one for you. On Netflix.

541
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 3: There's a show called The Tourist and it's an Irish

542
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 3: man who is stuck in the outback and he thinks

543
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 3: he committed a murder, but he has amnesia from a

544
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 3: car accident. He can't remember who he killed or who

545
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 3: he is. Yeah, the whole thing takes place in Australia.

546
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 3: It's pretty cool. That's cool.

547
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 1: Did you know the most deadly marine animal in Australia

548
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: Daddy the box jellyfish responsible for more deaths per year

549
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 1: than snake, sharks and saltwater crocodiles.

550
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, crocodile, not a gator. Huh.

560
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 1: next week for the phrase of the week. Worst sunburn,

561
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 1: the worst sunburn, Danny. I had a bunch when I

562
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 1: was a kid. We had when I was going up,

563
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 1: they opened a water park in the area, and so

564
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 1: i'd go there and it was called Wild Rivers a

565
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 1: water park, and we had no My mom got me

566
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 1: a season pass during the summer and she would give

567
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 1: me like suntown Loceans, but you know where's alf after

568
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 1: a while, and so I ended up. I was like

569
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 1: a tomato. I was like a red delicious apple. And

570
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 1: the worst part. And i've over the years when I

571
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 1: do get some burn, you just don't want to get

572
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 1: sunburned in your elbow joints, your neck, or your knees.

573
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 1: As you can be sunburned as long as those areas

574
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: are not sunburn and it's manageable. But when you have

575
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 1: to bend your arm and your arm sunburn, it's a

576
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 1: freaking nightmare. Or your knee, it's.

577
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, dude, I have one for you. I took a

578
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 3: week off from a radio station, like one of my

579
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 3: FM radio stations I worked for back in the day,

580
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 3: and I went out to Oxnard Shores, Hollywood Beach there

581
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 3: and it was like an overcast day. I'm not gonna

582
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,959
Speaker 3: get burned. I don't need any sunscreen. I got the

583
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 3: worst burn on my back of all places, that is

584
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 3: horrible because obviously you lean against your chair, you try

585
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,719
Speaker 3: to sit in your car. It was really bad. I

586
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 3: went up and visited family in San Jose during my

587
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 3: week off, and my aunt heard me complaining. She's like,

588
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 3: your big baby, take off your shirt. Let me see it.

589
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 3: And I took off my shirt. She looked at it

590
00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 3: and she went, oh, oh my gor She's like, she's like,

591
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 3: I would be crying if I had that on my back. Okay,

592
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you a pass, and she rubbed alo

593
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 3: Vera on it, and I just remember being a wreck

594
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 3: the whole rest of that week.

595
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 1: The Olivera is one of the most wonderful things.

596
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're God for that point.

597
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 1: Slobber that all over and then do it again fifteen

598
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 1: minutes later, and just keep doing it, just over and

599
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 1: over and over and over and over and over again

600
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 1: and again and again. Let's see. Yeah, I think that's

601
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: that's it. I think we all we don't have any time.

602
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 1: We're out of time here. We're gonna get kicked out
