That is today, March thirty, first Crayola 0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:09.240 Crayon Day, which was a big part of my childhood, 0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:12.759 the Crayola cra There are other crayon companies, but they're 0:01:12.840 --> 0:01:15.520 not nearly as famous, right, They're not nearly as famous. 0:01:15.880 --> 0:01:18.320 Creola tasted better too, the green ones especially. 0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:22.720 Yeah, the perfect meal. When I was in like second 0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:28.039 or third grade, was my main course was the Crayola crayon, 0:01:28.959 --> 0:01:31.080 and I had a side dish of Elmer's gluue. 0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:32.720 I knew you were going to say glue, and I 0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:34.520 let it dry on your fingers. 0:01:34.560 --> 0:01:37.080 Oh yeah, yeah, I'd pour it all over my fingers. 0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:42.840 The teacher me, ben Benji, Benji, you're making a mess.

I like the thoughts, that's uh. 0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:26.600 Some of them are too salty, though, Well, anything with 0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:29.960 potatoes is the proper. There's a sweet spot right, the 0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:33.359 proper amount of salt and all that and whatnot. Well, 0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:37.040 today is all about one thing and one thing only, Danny. 0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:43.120 It is Sunday, and we are the conduit to the people, right. 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:46.480 We are here by the people, for the people, all 0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:47.359 about the people. 0:02:48.000 --> 0:03:07.560 And so you know what that means, the male bag, it's. 0:03:06.880 --> 0:03:08.440 Right.

That's Real fifth Hour 0:03:27.639 --> 0:03:29.720 at gmail dot com. Or you can post on the 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:35.840 Facebook page Ben Malor Show. That is Ben Mahler's show 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:39.480 on the Facebook page. And the first email we have 0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:44.600 is from Barry, formerly in Nashville but now in South Carolina. 0:03:44.880 --> 0:03:49.680 He says, yo yo ma, Benny. Sort of a sporto question, 0:03:50.800 --> 0:03:53.120 he says. But with the start of the Major League 0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:56.080 Baseball season this week, he says, I do not count 0:03:56.920 --> 0:04:03.320 the Korea Bowl crap, He says, Barry, it seems like 0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:07.280 Major League baseball is becoming more and more like senior softball, 0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:12.200 where to avoid any type of collision and injury, they 0:04:12.200 --> 0:04:18.280 have two home plates and double first bases. You don't 0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:21.560 have any tag plays at home, the fielders stay at 0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:26.799 normal at normal home the runner goes to the second 0:04:26.880 --> 0:04:30.640 home plate. If the ball beats you to home, you 0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:34.080 are out. And then Barry says, how long before Major 0:04:34.160 --> 0:04:38.520 League baseball becomes like a senior league with all these 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:40.880 dumb rules, says. 0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:44.480 We heard this all week, but about the NFL, JJ 0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:48.120 Watt and other's saying NFL should just play flag football. 0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:52.200 Well, that NFL stuff is pretty the kick you see 0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:54.160 the kickoff the video, the kickoff, it looks like a glitch, 0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:56.400 like the XFL style kickoff. 0:04:56.880 --> 0:04:59.680 Yeah, I'm not denying that some of the rule changes the. 0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:03.120 Hip the hip rock. I thought our guy LeVar Arrington 0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:05.440 summed it up great where he said that this is 0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:07.400 the end of greatness, this is the end. 0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:11.760 And superstar defenders. Yeah, and I agree that was his point. 0:05:11.760 --> 0:05:13.720 That was his point. But we're not ever going to 0:05:13.760 --> 0:05:16.240 get to the point where they play flag football. Give 0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:20.640 me a break. No, it's not. It's not the Pro Bowl, 0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:28.240 Pro Bowl, I get it, regular season, in playoffs, in 0:05:28.320 --> 0:05:30.400 Super Bowl, No, it's going to be tackling. 0:05:30.520 --> 0:05:33.080 Hold on second if they can wear the helmets and 0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:37.080 the pads. But add a how about two hand touch? 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:39.320 Maybe not flag football, but two hand touch. 0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:41.560 How about the oh man, we better be dead if 0:05:41.600 --> 0:05:42.240 they go to. 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:46.120 The Eventually that will happen. But yeah, but as far 0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:49.520 as as far as Barr's questions concerned, So my favorite 0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:53.640 part of this, Barry, is that baseball has done all 0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:56.760 of this not because they want the game to be faster, 0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:59.479 because they want a better experience for the fans, not 0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:03.520 because it's a better product. It's not because that they 0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:07.040 did this because they want to keep the Golden goose happy. 0:06:07.640 --> 0:06:10.800 The television overlords and you know this probably already Beary, 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:14.039 I'm preaching the choir, But the people that control the 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:17.560 purse strings in television, they're the ones that said, hey, 0:06:17.560 --> 0:06:20.679 wait a minute, you know we want a quicker product. 0:06:20.720 --> 0:06:24.039 We're not getting return on our investment. So over the 0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:28.160 last five to ten years, this actually predates rob manfraud 0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:31.760 goes back to bud's Selik because they got rid of 0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:34.120 the play at the plate while Bud Selik was still 0:06:34.120 --> 0:06:38.680 the commissioner of Baseball. They got rid of the play 0:06:38.720 --> 0:06:42.000 at second base with rob Manfraud as the commission But 0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:45.839 as I understand it, all of these rules were placed 0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:49.800 to make the product more appealing to television. And the 0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:53.039 kick in the nuts to baseball this week was the 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:55.640 report that ESPN is looking to get out of a 0:06:55.720 --> 0:07:00.000 baseball business. Now Fox is the main broadcaster of baseball, 0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:03.880 but ESPN supplemented that they had a deal where they 0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:06.440 do Sunday night Baseball and they carried a couple of 0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:10.040 games throughout the week, and they're supposedly getting out of it, 0:07:11.800 --> 0:07:16.520 which is just the ultimate in your face, because Danny, 0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:20.920 they literally did this to appease, to pacify the people 0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:24.560 that do television, and some of them have already rejected 0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:28.080 and that they're like, we're good, we'll spend our money elsewhere. 0:07:28.920 --> 0:07:32.440 So pretty pretty well. But you are right, Barry, Like 0:07:32.480 --> 0:07:37.200 the most exciting plays in baseball the takeout play at 0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:41.000 home plate by far the most exciting. The anticipation will 0:07:41.000 --> 0:07:42.720 to throw make it in time? Will the catcher be 0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:44.600 able to block the plate? Is the runner going to 0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:46.520 take out the catcher? And you can see it when 0:07:46.520 --> 0:07:50.080 you're in the stadium. It was awesome, much like the kickoff, Dan, 0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:53.160 if you go to an NFL game and that excitement 0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:55.320 where you can see the blocking, you can see the 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:58.200 path opening up for the kick returner. Will he see 0:07:58.240 --> 0:08:00.800 the hole? Will he get through the hole? And if 0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:02.400 he gets through the hole, will anyone be able to 0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:04.800 chase him from behind and get him? You know, all 0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:11.040 of that is just tremendous theater. And you know people 0:08:11.160 --> 0:08:14.360 like your son Cole will not experience that because it 0:08:14.400 --> 0:08:20.760 doesn't exist anymore. It's gone, which is disappointing. Disappointing anyway, 0:08:21.040 --> 0:08:24.880 Alf from the Wall of Sound rites and he says, 0:08:25.040 --> 0:08:27.560 I'm sorry to get sporty, Ben and Danny, but I 0:08:27.720 --> 0:08:33.040 was wondering what Daddy Gee's position is. Daddy on which 0:08:33.080 --> 0:08:36.680 feet is more impressive? The Lakers Mickey Mouse ring in 0:08:37.200 --> 0:08:40.560 a bubble? He says, insert the bubble drop here? Or 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:43.640 the hardest World Series ever? When the Dodgers won in 0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:48.760 a sixty game season. He says, that's the question you 0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:49.280 haven't answer. 0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:51.120 It's such a stupid question. 0:08:51.679 --> 0:08:54.680 Well, we know the Dodgers is I think the hardest 0:08:54.679 --> 0:08:56.520 actually is that. 0:08:56.280 --> 0:08:58.319 If it was even harder for the Dodgers to win 0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:01.319 that season. Then logical it was even harder for the 0:09:01.400 --> 0:09:03.240 Lakers to win that season as as well. 0:09:03.280 --> 0:09:07.000 It was easier again, let me explain, Let me explain. 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:11.200 All right, So one sport you had three months to 0:09:11.320 --> 0:09:14.440 rest your body after the grind it get healthy. 0:09:14.600 --> 0:09:17.560 Only the three months off. 0:09:17.760 --> 0:09:20.760 Yea, they needed it more. They had the older, older rosters, 0:09:20.800 --> 0:09:24.680 they had the older rusherybody had level playing field covering 0:09:24.840 --> 0:09:27.040 and then and then the other one is a sport 0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:31.920 designed you go la la la, la la la. That's 0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:35.800 how the said, do you kicking, kicking their feet up, 0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:38.640 relaxing one hundred and sixty two games. But no, this 0:09:38.760 --> 0:09:42.200 is sprint. This is a sprint. You lose one player, 0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:46.480 it's over it, You're done. You're cooked so much harder 0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:49.680 in baseball that year than it was in basketball, and. 0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:53.280 No home court advantage. You don't take wins away from teams. 0:09:53.280 --> 0:09:55.360 That's just how it goes in all sports. You win, 0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:55.920 you win now. 0:09:55.920 --> 0:09:58.480 But I will concede though, Dan, and I'll be fair. 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:00.480 You know I one thing about me. My middle name 0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:08.600 is fair Dight Ben Fair Mallar. And that seven game 0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:12.160 title the Lakers got at the end of twenty twenty three, 0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:14.040 that that impressive. 0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:15.000 That was so good. 0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:18.400 I mean that, what was it called the in season tournament? 0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:21.240 They hung their little banner. That was so impressive. I 0:10:21.360 --> 0:10:22.240 was impressed by that. 0:10:22.440 --> 0:10:24.319 Still more banners than your favorite. 0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:26.040 Team to have the Hootz, but a hag a banner 0:10:26.080 --> 0:10:28.960 after seven games. Now. Alf also says I just wanted 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:32.160 to hear the bubble drop. It's my favorite and Roberto 0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:35.800 had mastered it. So that's from Alf. So he just 0:10:35.840 --> 0:10:37.920 wanted to hear Babo. 0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:41.000 I'll give him a drop right now, blank my blank 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:43.040 and blank you all right? 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:46.880 Next up, mister, I bet you will. Mister Luciana Wright 0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:48.560 said too the mail bag, he says, this question is 0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:52.120 for both Ben and Danny. Do you guys think they'll 0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:57.440 ever legalize gambling in California? Also, if they don't, do 0:10:57.480 --> 0:10:59.200 you think Nevada has something to. 0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:03.119 Do with it? That's from mister No, it's not Nevada. 0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:06.680 Yeah, we've been over this before in the past, mister Lusiano, 0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:09.720 but it's the Indian casino. 0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:16.000 The Indian casinos are controlling those prop measures, and so 0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:19.200 we've seen in the past that that would hurt their business. 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:23.360 And then the major players that you mentioned last weekend. 0:11:23.520 --> 0:11:28.199 The big companies DraftKings and FanDuel. They wanted in a 0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:29.960 couple of years ago, they had it on the ballot, 0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:33.480 and then the Indian casinos spent so much money, and 0:11:33.480 --> 0:11:35.400 this is proof it's kind of scary. If you spend 0:11:35.559 --> 0:11:38.319 enough money, you can win any kind of vote you want. Yes, sir, 0:11:38.760 --> 0:11:41.960 they spent all this money showing these poor Indian people 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:44.720 and how they you know gambling was going to be bad, which. 0:11:44.520 --> 0:11:47.760 Is they spent millions of dollars on this ad campaign, 0:11:47.840 --> 0:11:48.480 by the way. 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:51.960 Yeah, yeah, and they spent enough money they convinced the 0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:56.280 dumb voters in California to vote to ban sports gambling. 0:11:56.280 --> 0:11:59.880 But I was told that I think either later this 0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:03.040 year or early in twenty twenty five, there's supposed to 0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:07.240 be another round of legislation that'll be on the ballot, 0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:10.439 and this one is going to be by the Indian casinos, 0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:14.199 which means since they'll be getting a bigger piece of 0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:17.559 the pie, or control the gambling sports gambling market in California, 0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:21.520 that then they'll they're not going to spend money to 0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:23.600 vote against it, They're going to spend money to get it, 0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:26.760 and that means that it's more likely to pass unless. 0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:29.240 So, in other words, you can go in and legally 0:12:29.840 --> 0:12:32.320 they can legally have like a big sports book added 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:33.160 to their casino. 0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:36.720 Yeah, like we're in La like a Commers casino or 0:12:36.720 --> 0:12:39.360 something like that. As I and I maybe I'm completely wrong, 0:12:39.400 --> 0:12:42.040 but as I was told the story, they would have 0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:45.040 these things around. They'd also have the mobile betting, so 0:12:45.040 --> 0:12:47.080 you wouldn't even have to go in, which is so 0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:48.800 nice when you have it on your phone, but also 0:12:48.960 --> 0:12:51.319 very dangerous. Yeah, very dangerous when you have your own 0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:52.320 I find set. 0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:54.839 A fan duel, it'll be shoemash duel on your phone. 0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:57.680 Yeah, yeah, something like that, something like that. So that's 0:12:57.760 --> 0:13:01.200 the deal with mister Luciano. It should be the next 0:13:01.200 --> 0:13:03.840 couple of years. But the conspiracy for a long time 0:13:03.960 --> 0:13:06.360 was that Nevada did not want it. But it is 0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:09.920 interesting to note that there are only twelve states left 0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:13.960 that do not have legalized sports betting in America. Only twelve, right, 0:13:14.000 --> 0:13:17.120 most of them in the Bible Belt in California and 0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:20.160 a few other ones. And what they've found out is 0:13:20.240 --> 0:13:26.240 people still love going to Vegas though even though they 0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:29.280 can bet on sports in their backyard. That there's still 0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:31.840 people that make the pilgrimage to Vegas. It's like the 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:37.319 adult playground. Now. Whether that'll continue in future generations, who knows. 0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:40.480 Maybe that will not, but right now it hasn't hurt 0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:44.439 their business. There's still a bunch of out of towners, like, Hey, 0:13:44.520 --> 0:13:48.679 look at your Raiders, Danny. When the Raiders play the Eagles, 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:51.960 there's a million dudes from Philadelphia who are making the trip, 0:13:51.960 --> 0:13:54.600 even though they can bet in the Philadelphia area, and 0:13:54.600 --> 0:13:56.920 they're coming over from Philly to go to Vegas to 0:13:56.960 --> 0:13:59.319 be part of the experience or any of those other 0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:03.360 stities around the country where gambling is legal. So interesting, 0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:07.880 Mike and Fullerton writes in on the mail bag. He says, Hi, 0:14:08.000 --> 0:14:11.720 Ben and Danny g last week you wanted to know 0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:15.240 who the new Brad Pitt is going to be. I'm 0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:18.000 not sure if this is going to catch on or not, 0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:22.040 but Mike and Fullerton says, in my group of friends, 0:14:22.080 --> 0:14:24.960 at least our new go to name for a guy 0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:33.360 with Hollywood heartthrob looks is Fox Sports radio host Ben Maler. Well, 0:14:33.400 --> 0:14:37.200 thank you, Mike. I appreciate that. It's a fine tribute. 0:14:37.160 --> 0:14:39.640 That doesn't make any sense because your age is not 0:14:39.760 --> 0:14:41.960 far off from Brad Pitt's how dare you? 0:14:43.040 --> 0:14:46.320 Mike also says, I want to congratulate your Dodgers Ben 0:14:47.000 --> 0:14:50.360 on being Cactus League champions for twenty twenty four. Do 0:14:50.400 --> 0:14:53.720 you think they should hang a banner to celebrate? If not, why, 0:14:53.880 --> 0:14:56.240 I'd argue that winning the Cactus League is a whole 0:14:56.280 --> 0:15:00.000 lot more impressive than winning the NBA's in season tournament. 0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:04.960 And the Lakers hung a banner for that, Yeah, go ahead, 0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:07.800 hang your little Where would they hang the banner? 0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:08.280 Who would that? 0:15:08.320 --> 0:15:11.200 Where would that go? At Dodger Stadium? 0:15:11.200 --> 0:15:13.200 Probably in one of the stalls, Put. 0:15:13.000 --> 0:15:15.720 That in one of the urinals. Yeah, at Dodger Stadium. 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:18.200 It'd be a good looking banner. I saw they pulled 0:15:18.200 --> 0:15:22.360 out this Japanese bell. Did you see that? This at 0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:25.440 home now for Dodger games? That was gifted to the 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:29.560 Dodgers from Japan in like the nineteen sixties, and they 0:15:29.600 --> 0:15:32.600 this thing has been in storage since like the nineteen sixties, 0:15:32.600 --> 0:15:35.640 I heard, or whatever, and they're they're dusting it off 0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:39.160 at Dodger Stadium. Who else have Georgia and Uvalde, Texas 0:15:39.200 --> 0:15:42.280 rights into the mailbag, he says, with Otani going full 0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:46.000 blown Sergeant Schultz from Hogan's Heroes. What is the most 0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:51.120 inappropriate sitcom in history? Which sitcom did you watch in 0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:54.440 your youth that would never be remade today? 0:15:55.480 --> 0:16:01.720 Oh, that's easy. Threes company talking about phobia, and it 0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:05.160 was such a different time because it was so crazy 0:16:05.760 --> 0:16:08.760 to everybody that he would have a female roommate or 0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:12.040 two female roommates. Oh my god, he's not married to 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:14.200 either of them, and so he had to pretend like 0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:17.520 he was gay so that he could have female roommates. 0:16:17.720 --> 0:16:19.720 Yeah. The one that would be easy to remake would 0:16:19.720 --> 0:16:21.400 be remember when Tom Hanks was it. 0:16:21.400 --> 0:16:22.640 Busom Buddies someboddies. 0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:27.680 Yeah, that's mainstream though back then it was taboo. But now, 0:16:27.720 --> 0:16:30.280 you know, dressing as a woman, you do whatever. 0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:35.480 You want because they could easily be transformers and accepted. Well, 0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:38.080 what was the Archie Archie Archie Bunker. 0:16:38.200 --> 0:16:39.760 Yeah, yeah, that was a bad one. 0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:43.800 It was satire, but yeah, I couldn't get away with it. 0:16:43.840 --> 0:16:45.960 Now people can't handle sat You could do that on 0:16:46.120 --> 0:16:49.200 HBO or one of the you know, one of the 0:16:49.240 --> 0:16:51.760 streamed platforms. 0:16:51.280 --> 0:16:55.400 But a certain percentage of people do not get sarcasm 0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:59.160 and satire. And you know, Danny right from doing what 0:16:59.200 --> 0:17:01.720 we do for a living. And those people now have 0:17:01.800 --> 0:17:05.120 a megaphone with social media. So it seems like. 0:17:05.200 --> 0:17:07.919 That why I can't play the Necro Brothers drop. 0:17:08.640 --> 0:17:10.720 Well, again, I don't know what you're talking about. There 0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:12.800 was Phil Nkro and Joe Nicro. 0:17:14.040 --> 0:17:15.800 But I want to play the drop. And I heard 0:17:15.800 --> 0:17:19.480 that iHeart says no to that drop, that it's outlawed. 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:24.400 No comment? Next question? Uh, next, next one. How about 0:17:24.400 --> 0:17:29.640 the Jefferson's. You probably could make the Jeffersons Upper east 0:17:29.720 --> 0:17:35.320 Side Penthouse in the sky? Uh? Nick in Whiskey trying. 0:17:35.119 --> 0:17:37.400 To spin off from Archie Bunker's show by the way. 0:17:37.760 --> 0:17:40.040 Uh huh Nick and Wisconsin rights And he says, Ben 0:17:40.119 --> 0:17:45.199 and Danny, if you could own an exotic pet, what 0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:48.119 would you choose? When I was younger, I always wanted 0:17:48.160 --> 0:17:50.840 a monkey like they had on Friends. 0:17:50.880 --> 0:17:54.600 Shut up, you wanted wanted a monkey?

That'd 0:18:03.840 --> 0:18:05.639 be pretty cool to have, like a pet alligat or 0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:09.760 a rhino or elephant, one of those. What about you? 0:18:09.920 --> 0:18:12.480 I'm guessing you're gonna go like some kind of like tigers. 0:18:12.640 --> 0:18:16.080 Yah, dang, how'd you know?

Mike Tyson had some tigers. Yeah, man, 0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:27.680 that would be so cool to have a tiger growling 0:18:27.720 --> 0:18:29.119 on a chain in your backyard. 0:18:29.800 --> 0:18:33.119 Oh yeah, imagine imagine you're like a single guy with 0:18:33.200 --> 0:18:36.760 a tiger.

I think it was like tigers or lions 0:19:02.840 --> 0:19:04.880 or something like that, that that in Texas you can 0:19:04.920 --> 0:19:05.280 own them. 0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:07.800 Is it a tiger? Let me, I think I've heard 0:19:07.880 --> 0:19:08.399 this before. 0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:11.960 Yeah, look at uh, we'll do we'll do a google 0:19:12.119 --> 0:19:14.520 just google it. But I heard somebody was talking about 0:19:14.560 --> 0:19:16.359 it this week, and I was like, that is amazing 0:19:17.119 --> 0:19:19.240 that there are more of these things in captivity in 0:19:19.240 --> 0:19:22.480 Texas than in the wild in the world. And I 0:19:22.520 --> 0:19:24.919 know Texas is big and a lot of people have 0:19:25.000 --> 0:19:27.119 these big ranches out in the middle of nowhere. And 0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:29.840 people think of Texas with Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio, 0:19:29.920 --> 0:19:31.320 but a lot of Texas is empty. 0:19:31.400 --> 0:19:35.440 Yeah, in Texas, tigers can be kept as pets. There 0:19:35.480 --> 0:19:38.800 are anywhere from two thousand to five thousand tigers living 0:19:38.800 --> 0:19:39.920 in the state of Texas. 0:19:40.840 --> 0:19:43.919 Damn, it was worried about the guns. 0:19:44.040 --> 0:19:47.520 Yeah, they're the second largest tiger population in the world. 0:19:48.200 --> 0:19:52.200 India is the only place ahead of Texas. 0:19:53.080 --> 0:19:58.640 I saw some videos out of India and it is insane, 0:19:58.720 --> 0:20:02.000 Like there's tigers like walking around the street in these 0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:06.359 little villages. Do you imagine, like we have bears here, 0:20:06.680 --> 0:20:10.399 and we have these brown bears in California that'll walk around. 0:20:10.440 --> 0:20:13.600 And if you live in the foothills. 0:20:13.240 --> 0:20:16.399 And I've seen bobcats in my neighborhood, and tell me 0:20:16.440 --> 0:20:19.920 you haven't seen the news story about the wildlife crossing 0:20:19.960 --> 0:20:23.359 they're building in my neighborhood, the freeway overpass. 0:20:23.760 --> 0:20:25.400 Yeah, that's a great use of resources. 0:20:25.440 --> 0:20:27.200 Yeah, do you know how much that thing is costing? 0:20:27.520 --> 0:20:28.440 How much does that cost? 0:20:28.800 --> 0:20:32.440 It's ninety three million dollars right now, and it could 0:20:32.520 --> 0:20:32.920 be more. 0:20:34.000 --> 0:20:36.399 Why does it need to cost ninety three million? Couldn't 0:20:36.400 --> 0:20:38.040 you get a couple of guys at home depot and 0:20:38.080 --> 0:20:40.000 go out there on a weekend and get it done 0:20:40.040 --> 0:20:41.080 Saturday and Sunday. 0:20:41.800 --> 0:20:43.960 Yeah.

I mean, hey, 0:20:50.400 --> 0:20:52.399 I love animals, I love the zoo. I was at 0:20:52.440 --> 0:20:56.080 the San Diego Zoo just last week, but last weekend. 0:20:56.680 --> 0:21:00.560 But one hundred million dollars for a bridge that I 0:21:00.600 --> 0:21:03.800 don't know, two bobcats might cross over in three months? 0:21:04.119 --> 0:21:07.600 Yeah?

They'll go where 0:21:10.320 --> 0:21:13.040 they want to go, Like, do they understand that concept? 0:21:13.119 --> 0:21:13.879 It's not a. 0:21:14.720 --> 0:21:17.639 Heard this complaint in the comments of uh well, I 0:21:17.640 --> 0:21:20.200 think it was Channel seven covering this story here locally 0:21:20.280 --> 0:21:25.320 in southern California, and somebody wrote bobcats can't read and 0:21:25.359 --> 0:21:28.120 then the person underneath said, hey, you big dummy. They're 0:21:28.119 --> 0:21:36.560 writing the signs in bobcat man, so if it's in 0:21:36.600 --> 0:21:38.399 their language, then duh. 0:21:38.440 --> 0:21:41.040 Well, these things cost so much money because it's just 0:21:41.520 --> 0:21:44.720 it's payoffs right by politicians, Like there's no reason this 0:21:44.720 --> 0:21:46.840 stuff should cost as much as it does. It's like 0:21:46.880 --> 0:21:48.800 we was it with you or it was the last week, 0:21:48.800 --> 0:21:50.480 a couple of weeks ago, we talked about that that 0:21:50.600 --> 0:21:55.440 building in downtown near Staples Center, the building they got 0:21:55.440 --> 0:21:57.520 tagged and they're gonna they're gonna clean it up, right, 0:21:57.800 --> 0:22:00.679 which is essentially just giving a blank canvas to the 0:22:00.680 --> 0:22:03.359 people that come back and to tag it again. 0:22:03.480 --> 0:22:06.480 Yeah, so like shaking an etcha sketch. 0:22:06.640 --> 0:22:10.000
