Speaker 1: Kubbooms.

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 --> 00:00:12,479
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 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow, the Clearinghouse of

Speaker 2: with Ben Maller starts right now in the air everywhere.

9
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,200
Speaker 1: Welcome in the Fifth Hour with Ben Mahler and Danny

10
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 1: G Radio. Because four hours a night are not enough

11
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: for me, and the daytime shift with Covino and Rich

12
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,200
Speaker 1: for Danny G not enough. But eight days a week,

13
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: eight days a week from the podcast Dojo at a

14
00:00:55,200 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 1: super secret location and Danny G. There is a sense

15
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: of relief in the podcast Dojo today after over a year.

16
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 1: It's gotta be over a year. Brian Billick, Brian Billick.

17
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,400
Speaker 3: This was two years ago that this all started.

18
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: Two years jeez, crazy, but it was. It was wonderful

19
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 1: to have Brian finally on and he gave a lot

20
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 1: of good football information as he was hanging out in

21
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: Minista right near the Canadian border there, just south of

22
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: the border the north country in Minnesota. So I went

23
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 1: to Duluth. I told him when we talked yesterday, I

24
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: went to Duluth, and I thought that was like the

25
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: farthest you could go. But he's like another hour and

26
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: a half north of that, so he's way way up

27
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 1: there around Lake Superior. But it was great to have

28
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: him on. And so who's our next target, Danny, do

29
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: we have a new target that Billick's done the podcast

30
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: and now we have to move on to someone else.

31
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 3: Well, the list is obviously Billick and Michael Jordan. Those

32
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 3: are the two most sought after guests on any sports show.

33
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: Neck and neck with Jerry Delabatti, Baba Booie who we

34
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,360
Speaker 1: could get on, But yeah, I mean Michael Michael. I

35
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,399
Speaker 1: guess Michael was texting Stephen A And do you see

36
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 1: that this week that he's texting him at five in

37
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: the morning, you think, do you think that actually happened

38
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: or six in the morning.

39
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 3: I don't know any of us that are on a

40
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 3: media platform could say anybody texted us like, oh shit,

41
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,239
Speaker 3: Alicia Keys just texted me right now.

42
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, Well that's congratulations.

43
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 3: Good morning. Why did you have a baby without me? You, Dick.

44
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: My only theory on that Jordan thing was that it's conceivable.

45
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: I've heard Jordan's been spending a lot of time in Europe.

46
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 1: So he's in Europe. It's not as early, right, because

47
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: it's a few hours ahead of where he might you know,

48
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: the East coast, so where he might have been. So

49
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: I mean, that's conceivable. But we're not here to yap

50
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 1: about that. We got a lot to get to. We

51
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 1: got the cool hand, Luke smoked meats, back to school, backscratcher,

52
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: the word of the week, not the phrase of the week,

53
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: the word of the week, and we have time Pop

54
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: goes to the culture. But we start with this. So

55
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 1: I want to get your perspective, Danny and you listening.

56
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 1: I want to get some feedback on this, okay, because

57
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: this is our Saturday podcast. It's all about the life

58
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: of malor the life of Danny g So. I had

59
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: a buddy of mine. I've known this guy since elementary

60
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: school in town. He don't live here anymore, and he's

61
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: been gone. He lives in Dallas. He visits usually once

62
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 1: a year, sometimes twice a year.

63
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 3: Now.

64
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: We grew up together and we spend a lot of

65
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: time on the playgrounds, and every year we will get

66
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: together and enjoy a nice meal and tell old stories

67
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: from back on the swing, you know, the swing, the

68
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: swings and the you know, the playing kickball and all

69
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: that crap.

70
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 2: Uh.

71
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 1: So that's it's kind of a normal thing. I think

72
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 1: most people do that with old friends. And this guy's

73
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 1: an Elvis impersonator. That's not my thing. But whatever floats

74
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 1: is both that's fine. But this year was different than

75
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 1: all other years. So he told me about a month

76
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: before he was visiting. He said, you know, I'm gonna

77
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: be out there, and I said, okay. So then I

78
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,679
Speaker 1: explained to him, you know, I've got some big things

79
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: going on right now. There's some exciting stuff happening. I've

80
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 1: got a very busy schedule and I'm only available socially

81
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 1: on Friday and Saturday. Right but he was going to

82
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: come from Saturday to Saturday. So I explain no one

83
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: to listen, I can see you Saturday you fly in.

84
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 1: I could see you the following Friday, or like Saturday.

85
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 3: Before you leave. Bertie sounds like you were a big

86
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 3: time in him.

87
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: Well no, no, no, no, no, no, no not at all,

88
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: because that's like that's the schedule. I gave him plenty

89
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 1: of advanced notice. So I figured, if I give someone

90
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: enough advance notice, okay, they'll work with me, right Uh.

91
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 1: And so he comes out, he comes out to visit. Now,

92
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: we had the Malor Meet and great last Saturday. So

93
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: that was that took up a big chunk of my time,

94
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: which was great. I had a fine time with Andy

95
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:36,599
Speaker 1: the comic guy.

96
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 3: It was.

97
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 1: It was a fun, fun afternoon.

98
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 3: It was cool.

99
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: It was different. He's got a really cool comic book

100
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 1: shop and Brave New World Comics is really neat and

101
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: so I had a great time there.

102
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 3: It was.

103
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: It was really nice. A lot of people showed up.

104
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: We had a good time. We had a good crowd.

105
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: It wasn't too big, but it wasn't too small. So

106
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,480
Speaker 1: it was a good mix of people that showed up.

107
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: To be a great but I then text him one

108
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: of his favorite restaurants at La is L Coyote on Beverly.

109
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 3: You know that.

110
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 1: Mexican restaurant on Beverly there, So yeah, I used to

111
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: eat there quite a bit. I used to live right

112
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: across the way there, so I used to get there

113
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,559
Speaker 1: a lot. And the prices have gone up up and away.

114
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: But anyways, like I was, I happen to be there

115
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 1: with the wife, and so I was like text them

116
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 1: and say, maybe he'll come over here and meet us.

117
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 1: I said, well, I have I have plans. I have

118
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: I have some tickets to some show, so I can't

119
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: meet you today. I said, okay, So I said, all right,

120
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 1: well let's do something next week. So let's do something

121
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: on Friday. And so we tender. We made plans. He

122
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,480
Speaker 1: said he could squeeze me in. He had plans on

123
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: Friday yesterday night, but he had lunch was available on

124
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: yesterday yesterday. And then just before the Thursday night radio show,

125
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 1: I get a tech you know, he's staying in the

126
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 1: hood near Lax and I got a text. I got

127
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: to cancel, and I'm like, we made plans for lunch.

128
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: I mean we were gonna meet halfway, which I think

129
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 1: was a good compromise. I think that was very generous.

130
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: I've spent a lot of time in traffic this week.

131
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: More on that. Later says we're gonna meet halfway. So

132
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 1: then my buddy, right, So I was like, oh, he

133
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: texted me right before the show the night before on Thursday,

134
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: He's like, hey, I can't do it, and he says

135
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: his rationale is he says it's too stressful because of

136
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 1: the traffic in LA and the return of his rental

137
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: car would have caused too much anxiety because he had

138
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: to return it like at three o'clock. And I told him,

139
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: I said, just extended a few more hours, it's no

140
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: big deal. But he said they were closed. So we

141
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: have here, Danny, a cool hand, luke situation, a failure

142
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: to communicate. So the question I ask you, I asked

143
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 1: the esteemed panel of listeners, who's the bad guy in this?

144
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: Am I the bad guy? Am I the dick because

145
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: the dick and Dayton because I only was a milla

146
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 1: on Friday and Saturday? Or was my friend the bad

147
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: guy because he did not work with me even though

148
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: I was willing to meet him halfway and he would

149
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: not meet with me. He said he was, and then

150
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: he he canceled. What's your perspective, Nanny?

151
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,119
Speaker 3: Well, even though I was giving you a hard time

152
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 3: at first about big timing because you gave him forewarning,

153
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 3: then I think you're in the right here. And you

154
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 3: also were going to meet him halfway, which is what

155
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 3: I feel like we should do. Even if it's your

156
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 3: host city where a friend or family member is visiting,

157
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 3: we're still willing to, like, you know, drive halfway in

158
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 3: between wherever they're staying at in our general area to

159
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 3: meet them. Look, I've always been the one and my

160
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 3: girl always says this too about visiting her family. A

161
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 3: lot of her family lives in northern California near the

162
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 3: Davis area. You see Davis in the house. The thing

163
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 3: is she has to drive up there to see them.

164
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 3: And my family I have half down here and half

165
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 3: in northern California as well, and through the years, Ben,

166
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 3: it's always been the same for me too. I have

167
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 3: to drive all the way up there to see everybody,

168
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 3: and I'll drive from house to house to visit everybody.

169
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 3: What's the problem of coming down to southern California. Supposedly

170
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 3: they're always stressed out over the traffic. The drive is long,

171
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 3: there's so many excuses. But magically they could come down

172
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 3: here and visit Disneyland.

173
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, well there's no traffic at Disneyland.

174
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:50,079
Speaker 3: It's amazing. I'm not a mathematician, but something doesn't add up.

175
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is frustrating, and over the years, like a

176
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 1: lot of the people, I grew up with people I've

177
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: known have moved out of California. My brothers live in

178
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 1: I won in Wisconsin, I won in New York, so

179
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: there's not, you know, too much family in the area,

180
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: and it, uh, you know, I do end up having

181
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 1: to travel to see them. But this one was like

182
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: a buddy of mine. I've known him like, you know,

183
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 1: he's like a you know, a guy that I've been

184
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: close with. He knows all my secrets and all that

185
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 1: I know all his secrets. But unfortunately did not work

186
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,959
Speaker 1: out this time. So we'll see. Maybe next time it'll

187
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: work out.

188
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, you guys were on the teener totter together.

189
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:33,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, we when you when you play handball and kickball,

190
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 1: and I mean, that's the next level. There's a there's

191
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 1: a bond of brotherhood that is born on the playgrounds

192
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 1: of elementary school that cannot be broken. So I had

193
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: that and then I also had I want to mention

194
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: this real quick. This will not be long because I

195
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: know we have to we have to get to the

196
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,959
Speaker 1: back to school. But I had a power lunch in

197
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: La La Land this week and uh, you know, to

198
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 1: the decent name the medium logo types and I don't

199
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: do these things very often. I mentioned this on the

200
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 1: radio show a little bit. I don't do these things

201
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: very often, Danny, mainly because I cannot stand I'm a

202
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: creature a habit, and I have my whole routine down

203
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,959
Speaker 1: and it just screws me up when I have to

204
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 1: change my routine. And in order to pull off this

205
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: power luncheon we just mentioned the La traffic, I spent

206
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:32,319
Speaker 1: three hours, three hours in my car, an hour there,

207
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: two hours on the way back in rush hour traffic,

208
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: going through some fine parts of skid row in Los

209
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: Angeles and places that I think makes Sodom and Gomora

210
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 1: look like an attractive destination instead. But anyway, so one

211
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 1: of the people I went out with and had outside

212
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 1: we went to Langers Delhi. I love you. Ever been

213
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 1: to Langers I love Langers Deli.

214
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's not much parking, but the food delicious.

215
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a little lot. It's right across from MacArthur Park,

216
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,079
Speaker 1: and it is the greatest deli I've been to. I've

217
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 1: been to all the big delis in New York, all

218
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:14,719
Speaker 1: the delis you know in Manhattan and Brooklyn, and this

219
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 1: place is at the very top. It is better the

220
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: way they make their pastrami is insane. The problem is

221
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 1: you have to dodge landmines and it's just wild down

222
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: there near MacArthur Park. Because it's so unsafe there, they

223
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: close at four o'clock in the afternoon because you don't

224
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: want to be there at four oh one. It's real bad.

225
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: But that MacArthur Park's been around since the eighteen hundreds

226
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,439
Speaker 1: and it's one of the oldest parts of la and

227
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,199
Speaker 1: it's so old. I looked it up because I've been

228
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: there so much that they actually filmed early Hollywood movies

229
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:57,559
Speaker 1: with Buster Keaton and Charles Chaplin Charlie Chaplin in MacArthur

230
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 1: Park back in early days Hollywood in the nineteen twenties.

231
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: So kind of crazy one hundred years ago. But so

232
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,719
Speaker 1: we had the power lunch. It was great, told some stories,

233
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: you know, shot the biz and one of the people there,

234
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: Danny has claim to fame, was he fired Skip Bayless

235
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: from a radio job. So went into detail on that

236
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,439
Speaker 1: and gave some some dirt. Very few people can say

237
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: they fired the highest paid person or one of the

238
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 1: three highest paid people in sports media today. But obviously

239
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: before Skip Bayless became Skip Bayliss and in the early days, Danny.

240
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 1: I told the sturb before. But when Fox Sports Radio started,

241
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 1: Skip Bayless was one of our contributors. He was writing

242
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: books about the Dallas Cowboys, and he was like an

243
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: NFL guest that was a paid contributor on Fox Sports

244
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,839
Speaker 1: Radio in the early days when the network started. So

245
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: and then he went off through the show called Cold

246
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 1: Pizza I think it was.

247
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,559
Speaker 3: I remember that, yeah.

248
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: At ESPN, and then that became what eventually became First

249
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: Take and all that. So interesting interesting times. There was

250
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 1: a good time. I don't know that I'll do that

251
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: very often because of the amount of time I spent

252
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 1: in the car. I am such a radio loser. There

253
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 1: were you know, there were fair amount of people on

254
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: the roads. Is that because it's back to school time?

255
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 3: Danny?

256
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 1: Would that be why there's so many people on the roads.

257
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 3: There's those windows now where anywhere near a school in

258
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 3: your community, you know, shit, I got to stay away

259
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 3: from those streets gets backed up really bad. Also when

260
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 3: you go back to school, Ben, you know, for me,

261
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 3: obviously I help out with the school district here in

262
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 3: the morning time. I noticed that the weather it's kind

263
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 3: of like a marker. Last year when we went back

264
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 3: to school. One of the days, it was one hundred

265
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 3: and nine outside. I remember the kids just panting and complaining,

266
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 3: and you know, it was like two degrees by eight am,

267
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 3: and the kids were hating life. And I thought to myself,

268
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 3: why are they starting back to school so much earlier

269
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 3: than when we were kids, because for us it was

270
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 3: after Labor Day.

271
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, yeah, Yeah, we had a full summer. We

272
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 1: had a great time, wonderful.

273
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're like, screw you f them kids. They send

274
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 3: them back in the middle of the bastard heat. But

275
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 3: we had some weird slurricane, hurricane, tropical storm. I guess

276
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 3: after the earthquake too. People were calling it a hurriquake.

277
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 3: I don't know. In fact, a friend of mine JC

278
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 3: in Nashville, he was texting me last weekend, Man, I

279
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 3: can't wait to hear you and Mallard talk about the hurriquake. Now,

280
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 3: you didn't feel the earthquake, right.

281
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: No, I did not. You know, I'm pretty we live

282
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: kind of far from each other, and you were closer

283
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: to the epicenter, much closer than I was. But yeah,

284
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: the whole storm thing, Like I saw some of the

285
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 1: headlines on the inn I thought, oh my god, I'm

286
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 1: gonna die. This is it's over. My life's gonna end,

287
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna die in a freaking hurricane tropical storm.

288
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: The way they were pinning the picture. I was mainly

289
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 1: concerned about the wind because I thought, Man, if it

290
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 1: gets really windy, that's a nightmare situation. And fortunately it

291
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 1: didn't seem all that windy. It just was consistent rain.

292
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta tell you unpopular opinion, Danny. When

293
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: I was back east in Maine the week prior, it

294
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 1: rained much harder. When I was driving down I ninety

295
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 1: five to go back to Boston, it was a much

296
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: harder rain than it was here. It was just consistent.

297
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: And the problem is, obviously we don't get a lot

298
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 1: of rain, so when it rains, all hell breaks loose.

299
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 1: And did you see the video clip on the internet

300
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 1: of the people slipping and sliding on the freeway not

301
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 1: being able to handle their way too fast and then raining.

302
00:16:55,720 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 3: It was pure comedy watching the networks here in Los Angeles,

303
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 3: so we turned the TV on middle of the day.

304
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:09,159
Speaker 3: I think they overhyped it so badly. Dallas Rains is

305
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 3: going to be in the studio for twenty four hours

306
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 3: and that sort of thing. They were running promos and

307
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 3: they were just so excited over this. They were lathered

308
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 3: up in the newsroom, you know, you know, if there's

309
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 3: gonna be some sort of big catastrophe and it's being forecasted,

310
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 3: Oh my god, like this, that's their super Bowl in

311
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 3: the weather department. So we turn on the news because,

312
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 3: like you said, it didn't seem so bad. It was

313
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 3: a little windy outside. It was kind of strange because

314
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 3: it had that dirty pre rain smell where the oil

315
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,440
Speaker 3: off the roads are beginning to you know, wash away,

316
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,919
Speaker 3: and it stayed like that. So it was kind of

317
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 3: a weird tropical Florida feeling. But other than that, it

318
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 3: wasn't a big deal because it was just a nice

319
00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 3: little rain shower, a little bit of wind, but nothing special.

320
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 3: But then ben, oh my god, an earthquake. Oh yes,

321
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 3: they took this earthquake and ran with.

322
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 1: Its orgasm type.

323
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 3: End of the world type shit, Oh my god, end

324
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 3: an earthquake in the middle of a tornado.

325
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 1: It's out of the Bible. It's out of the Bible.

326
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 3: Volcanic eruptions and tornadoes and earthquakes and hurricanes. It was

327
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 3: beautiful watching this all develop on the local TV stations.

328
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 3: So I believe we started out by watching KTLA channel five,

329
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 3: and it was comedy, pure comedy. There was this female newscaster,

330
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 3: a female reporter, i should say, and she was driving

331
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:52,159
Speaker 3: the TV truck. They went to her because she was

332
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 3: on the one eighteen freeway, not far from where the

333
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 3: earthquake was, because she was on her way driving to

334
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 3: a venture. Okay, so they're like, let's go to Janice,

335
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 3: who's actually driving to Ventura right now. The camera goes

336
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:12,400
Speaker 3: to her. It's a live shot with her on the freeway.

337
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 3: Ben She looked like she was about thirteen years old

338
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 3: because she didn't even fit in the seat of the van.

339
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 3: She's trying to drive and speak to them at the

340
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 3: same time. It was the most awkward camera shot, and

341
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 3: she was babbling on and on about headed towards the

342
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 3: epicenter and as you can see in front of me,

343
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,959
Speaker 3: there's only a couple of cars on the freeway, so

344
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 3: people are heating the warning about staying off the freeways.

345
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 3: She was on the air with them, I'm not kidding

346
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,120
Speaker 3: you for a good ten minutes, reporting on the two

347
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 3: cars that were driving in front of her on the freeway.

348
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 1: Fascinating television.

349
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 4: My wife summed it up the best. She said, what

350
00:19:55,920 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 4: the fuck is this? That is called filler? I think

351
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 4: that is called television spam. You're all trying to fill

352
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 4: the time. You're just really trying to fill the time.

353
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 3: It's kind of like a car chase too, because you're right,

354
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 3: it is filler. They don't know what to do. They

355
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,160
Speaker 3: just keep repeating the same thing over and over.

356
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 1: It's unscripted. Yeah, that's the other thing we needed, Danny.

357
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: We had the earthquake, we had the storm. We needed

358
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,160
Speaker 1: a police chase. Also. That would have been the third

359
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 1: third of Dante's Inferno, the Five Rings of Hell. That

360
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:29,880
Speaker 1: would have been the third one in the Five Rings

361
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 1: of Hell.

362
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 3: Yo, Well, they're tap dancing so much. They get super

363
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 3: excited when somebody, anybody is brought in to speak to them,

364
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 3: even if that person is regurgitating the same bullshit that

365
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 3: they've been repeating for the past half hour. So now

366
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 3: they get somebody on to talk about the earthquake and

367
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 3: where it was centered and what does this mean? And

368
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 3: so she and my girl's like, damn, she looks like

369
00:20:55,840 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 3: she's been alive since the first earthquake. Now she's like

370
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:05,959
Speaker 3: stuttering and she's explaining to the audience what an earthquake is.

371
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 1: Loser.

372
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:12,159
Speaker 3: This is a new low for Southern California television. Man, Okay,

373
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:18,159
Speaker 3: they overhyped the hurricane. Now they desperately were scrambling to

374
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 3: have a big payoff. This was the best part. The

375
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 3: Chargers game was still scheduled for Sunday, right and it

376
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 3: was the same bad TV coverage. They are still still

377
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,679
Speaker 3: searching on a way to give a big payoff to

378
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 3: all of the viewers on this what turned out to

379
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 3: be a little storm for us. And they're like, yeah,

380
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,359
Speaker 3: you know, the Chargers game is still going to go

381
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 3: on though. And the TV anchor said, I'll say this though,

382
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 3: if you have a friend in Inglewood, I would go

383
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 3: there after the game, just for precaution, you know, just

384
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 3: go and hang out for a while. And the other

385
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 3: anchor said, that's a great idea. Me and my wife,

386
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 3: he looked at each other and we're like, yeah, because

387
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 3: we all have friends in Inglewood.

388
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,399
Speaker 1: Oh, of course. Let me tell you something. There's a

389
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:15,200
Speaker 1: fine bubbling community in Southern California, in the hood in Inglewood.

390
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 3: When Ben Maller is at the Chargers game. He's gonna

391
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 3: call Joel Elliott from Fox Sports Radio and be like, hey, Joel,

392
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 3: I know you live in Inglewood. Channel two told me

393
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 3: to go hang out with you after the game.

394
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, i'd hang out. Well, Joel's great long suffering

395
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 1: Lions fan. But remember Helmet Man lives in the hood

396
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 1: in Inglewood, so that's right, that's his neighborhood over there,

397
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,120
Speaker 1: right near Sofi Stadium. So I'd have to track down

398
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 1: Helmet man. I'm actually on the live air. Yes, there's

399
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: an on air light, sir, the on air light indicats

400
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: you're on the air. You're talking into a microphone in

401
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:56,120
Speaker 1: a radio station. You are on the live air, Yes, yes,

402
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: you're on.

403
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 3: Now. Lastly, how we are over earthquakes. I did feel it.

404
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:06,160
Speaker 3: I was taking a nap. It shook me out of bed.

405
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 3: I walked downstairs, family sitting down in the living room,

406
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 3: girls holding the baby, and they just calmly look at

407
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 3: me and they're like, oh, you felt it, and I'm like, yeah,

408
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 3: I felt it. And that's it. That was the beginning.

409
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 3: In the end, there's no running around in circles screaming,

410
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 3: oh my god, there's been an earthquake. We're so used

411
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 3: to it and so jaded in California that that's how

412
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 3: we react now, just like you felt it. Yea, I

413
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:33,120
Speaker 3: felt it.

414
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 1: Well, now you can get a shirt, you know, baby's

415
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 1: first earthquake and you can get something like that, those.

416
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 3: First Southern California apocalypse.

417
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 1: Now are you doing the full baby book, Danny? Do

418
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: you have the full baby book where you're keeping everything

419
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 1: and you know, all the scraps and all that, or

420
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 1: are you too advanced for the baby book?

421
00:23:56,240 --> 00:24:00,359
Speaker 3: Yeah? I don't know. I actually got a link sent

422
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 3: to me yesterday by my chick and it was some

423
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 3: modern baby book where you send the photos into them

424
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 3: and then they put the kid's picture inside the book

425
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 3: that they print out for you.

426
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,120
Speaker 1: Okay, my mom kept a is obviously a different time,

427
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,439
Speaker 1: but she kept a scrap book like of everything, like

428
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:24,439
Speaker 1: my hair, my first haircut, little scrap of that first

429
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,400
Speaker 1: tooth that I lost, you know all that.

430
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're dried up in billical cord.

431
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, she wanted a little piece of everything there back

432
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 1: back in the day. We have a little time. Let's

433
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:37,959
Speaker 1: get to the word of the week, Danny. The word

434
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 1: of the week, word of the week, So the word

435
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 1: of the week. This week is pundit. Big week for pundits.

436
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: We have pundits in sports, but big week politically because

437
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 1: there was a debate this week and so we saw

438
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 1: if you were watching the cable news channels, there's a

439
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 1: lot of political pundits who did their thing and commented

440
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 1: and all that. And it's a word that I use

441
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 1: off of it. I think I used it yesterday with

442
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: Brian Billick. I used the word pundit. So where did

443
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: the word begin? What's the origin story of the word pundit. Well,

444
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:22,679
Speaker 1: pundit dates back almost four hundred years to the sixteen seventies.

445
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: It dates back to It's a Sanskrit word, whatever that means,

446
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:33,880
Speaker 1: but it's it's been translated as pundit from the original form.

447
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 1: It was referred to originally as someone who had committed

448
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 1: to memory a significant amount of the Hindu religious text

449
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 1: known as the Vitas I believe vedas and essentially what

450
00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: it was. It became over the years, it became someone

451
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 1: that was a learned man, a philosopher, and by the

452
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 1: nineteenth century word pundit expanded to what it means today,

453
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 1: like on television or radio, some expert we had Brian

454
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 1: Billick on the Pundit yesterday, and so the word of

455
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 1: the week he goes all the way back, all the

456
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: way back to the sixteen seventies, and it involved memorizing

457
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:26,960
Speaker 1: Hindu religious texts. The word of the week is Pundit.

458
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:28,920
Speaker 3: Word of the week.

459
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: Queen Quick and Danny, we you know how you have

Speaker 1: no backscratch your month, because yet again, Danny, we have

465
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,120
Speaker 1: pitched a shout out. Now we were away for some

466
00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 1: of this. You were away on Father I was away.

467
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: We had some evergreen podcast that we put up, but

468
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,480
Speaker 1: we still have yet to have a review. This is

469
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: the worst month we've ever had for reviews on Backscratcher.

470
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,159
Speaker 1: So really we need your help here. There's only a

471
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: few days left in the month of August, and our

472
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: next show will be in the month of September. So

473
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,400
Speaker 1: but if you get it in before August ends, we're

474
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 1: going to count that for August and we'll just read

475
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 1: it on next Saturday's podcast. But go to that podcast

476
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: page or just look at the description Danny Wright, and

477
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:37,679
Speaker 1: you can figure out how to write a review. And

478
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,919
Speaker 1: it does help us out a lot. If you're a

479
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: loyal minion, it's absolutely free to write a review. All

480
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 1: that will cost you is your time, which is very valuable.

481
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 1: But you're fuxing around with your phone anyway, you might

482
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,160
Speaker 1: as well just write a little review and it helps

483
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,719
Speaker 1: us out. And our boss is like that kind of crap,

484
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 1: so's that's why we need it?

485
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, this is a travesty not having at least

486
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 3: one for the month. Do not make me contact that

487
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 3: Channel five reporter in our van on this. Okay, she'll

488
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 3: spend a good ten minutes on this story. So yet,

489
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 3: in the description of this very podcast, click on it

490
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,160
Speaker 3: and then you'll see where it says write a review.

491
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 3: It's right next to the overall, the big overall score

492
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 3: of the podcast, and then it has you make a

493
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:28,360
Speaker 3: little handle for your name. Click on five stars if

494
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,199

495
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 3: and boom, you're finished. So it really only takes five

496
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 3: minutes of your life.

497
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's painless. It's relatively painless unless you're just

498
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 1: not really good with tech stuff. But it's very simple

499
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: even if you're not. I'm not the most technical savvy person,

500
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 1: but I even I can figure out how a great

501
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:53,080
