1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,400 Speaker 1: Last segment before the top of the hour, I was 2 00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:07,160 Speaker 1: asking the question basically out loud, what was the worst 3 00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:11,240 Speaker 1: job you ever had? Because I'm a firm believer that 4 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: some of those experiences from that worst job you ever 5 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:17,920 Speaker 1: had probably shaped you in a good way. It either 6 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,080 Speaker 1: pushed you into the career that you felt you should 7 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: have been in all along, or it forced you to 8 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: reassess your life. At the minimum, maybe it did both. 9 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: And I think there's always some great wisdom to be 10 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: found in the worst job that someone ever had, because 11 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 1: you would probably learn a lot about a person just 12 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: from the worst job that they had. And I think 13 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: that was proof positive when I was asking Brian Brewman, 14 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: and I don't know Brian like that, and it came 15 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: out of nowhere where he's a news anchor right now, 16 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: but prior to this he had four hundred and fifty 17 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: years as an auto mechanic. I had no idea that 18 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: he was that old number one and number two that 19 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: he had spent most of his life where he is 20 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: an auto mechanic. For BMW's of course, very high falutint 21 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 1: BMW's yes, be very impressed. It wasn't like he was, 22 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: you know, a pet boys or something like that knows 23 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: BMW's he was a certified automochanic for BMW. Hey, there 24 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: are levels man, there. But I will ask you this 25 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: because there is a point to all this. What do 26 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 1: you think being an auto mechanic taught you the most? 27 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 1: Looking back, other than the obvious skill set. Um, Honestly, 28 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 1: I appreciate I was so miserable. Honestly, personally I was. 29 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: I was. I was depressed for years and every day 30 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: to me is a joy now. I hated my life 31 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: so much at that job that every day now is 32 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: the happiest day of my life. Honestly, I also believe 33 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: that there's nothing more. Remember we were talking about like 34 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: dress codes and the things which were more important than 35 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: money related to a job, and for me, it was 36 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: like a dress code, being able to dress. However, I 37 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,959 Speaker 1: wanted something else, which is like if that's one A, 38 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: this is one B. Feeling respected in my work, not 39 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: being disrespected either by the general public or whatever. That 40 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: is like goal to me. And I've worked for people 41 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: who were so openly disrespectful. Cush you out, call you names, 42 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: call you every name under the sun except a child 43 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: of God. And those are things that I've taken with me, 44 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 1: and I'm always very careful if I should have people 45 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,959 Speaker 1: who are working under me or producers working with me, 46 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: that I never am disrespectful to them, because I know 47 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: what it's like to be on the other end of 48 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 1: a disrespectful work relationship. And I'm not talking about this 49 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: post me too stuff. I'm talking about stuff that make 50 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: you want to go outside and knock them in the head, 51 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: that type of love of disrespect, not the subtle stuff. 52 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: And I think from my worst employment experiences, that's what 53 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: I've taken away, In other words, how to be a 54 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: better person more than anything, How to enjoy life and 55 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: enjoy my career and not have it connect to money. 56 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 1: You might have seen this story, actually heard it, because 57 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: it's been reported on here at CAFI across the day 58 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: about the Iowa sports reporter who was none too pleased 59 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 1: about this non sports assignment that he was given. I 60 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: guess at o dark thirty in the morning, listen to 61 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: this mark. How are you feeling out there again the 62 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: same way I felt about eight minutes ago when you 63 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: ask me that same question. Right, I normally do sports. 64 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: Everything is canceled here for the next couple of days. 65 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: So what better time to ask the sports guy to 66 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: come in about five hours normally earlier than he would 67 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: normally wake up, go stand out in the wind and 68 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: the snow and the cold, and tell other people not 69 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: to do the same. I didn't even realize that there 70 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: was a three thirty also in the morning until today. 71 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: It's absolutely fantastic, Ryan. You know, I'm used to these 72 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: evening shows that are only thirty minutes long, and generally 73 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: on those shows, i'm inside. So this is a really 74 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: long show. Tune in for the next couple hours to 75 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: watch me progressively get crankier and crank Here, how do 76 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 1: I get that storm Chaser seven duty? I feel like 77 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: Clint got the better end of that deal. You know 78 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: that thing's heated the outdoors currently is not heated. Well, 79 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, Ryan, I've got good news and 80 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: I've got bad news. The good news is that I 81 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: can still feel my face right now. The bad news 82 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: is I kind of wish I couldn't. Can I go 83 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 1: back to my regular job? I'm pretty sure Ryan, that 84 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: you guys added an extra hour to this show just 85 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 1: because somebody likes torturing me. Because compared to two and 86 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 1: a half hours ago, it is just getting colder, colder, 87 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: live in Waterloo for the last time this morning, thankfully 88 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: on Mark Woodley New seven KWWL Mark Woodley, he gave 89 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: it away. He's a regularly he's regularly a TV sports 90 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: guy on KWWL in Waterloo, Iowa. Waterloo, Iowa doesn't seem 91 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: like it's the sports bastion that all you know, sports 92 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: guys aspire to work. Maybe it's market two fifty eight 93 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 1: or something like that. It's not high on the pecking order. 94 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:32,239 Speaker 1: So in other words, he's there probably living his dream 95 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,359 Speaker 1: in a sports sense. And I could hear it in 96 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: his voice. I know what that felt like, not literally, 97 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 1: you know, going out into a store I'm trying to report, 98 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: but doing something being taken advantage of. And then you 99 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: have these just completely ridiculous conditions that you have to 100 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: work under just to keep your job, and it's so 101 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 1: demeaning and belittling, and he just had enough. But what's 102 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: the worst thing they can tell you in this business? 103 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 1: You're fired? No? No, it's just saying no, what's the 104 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: worst thing you can say in this business? No? Oh 105 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: right right, Well, let me put it this way. For 106 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: the past eleven years that I've been at CALFI and 107 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 1: I'm staying this very respectfully, but just to highlight your point, 108 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: I have worked every single Christmas holiday. When I say 109 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: every single Christmas holiday, i'd be like December twenty third 110 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: through January second inclusive. There have been nights in work 111 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: in which I slept in my office with an air mattress. 112 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: Because there was one time I did. I was filling 113 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,039 Speaker 1: in for Tim Conway Junior, which is seven to ten. 114 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 1: Back then it was seven to ten, and then they 115 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: had that was New Year's Eve, and then they had 116 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: me in for Gary and Shannon, which is ten am 117 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 1: to two pm. Why go home, There's no reason, So 118 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 1: I slept in my office. But to your point, what 119 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: am I gonna do? Say no, yeah, exactly. If you 120 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 1: don't do it, someone else will. And and that's another 121 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 1: lesson I learned from the music industry. After a while, 122 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: I learned that I was getting too old for the 123 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 1: music industry because they can always find someone who is 124 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 1: half my age, who is willing to work for half 125 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: the money, who was also willing to do twice to 126 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: work because they just wanted to be in the business. 127 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: And after a while, just being in the business is 128 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: not enough. It's not enough, But I understand what that 129 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: Iowa reporter was going through. I'm not saying here, I 130 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: love everything to do here, I love ca'f I an 131 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: iheartbeat it. Please don't take that the wrong way. Love 132 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: you guys. I'm just saying in other jobs I've had, 133 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: I felt less respected and less appreciated, and sometimes it 134 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: spills out. You also didn't have to do any of 135 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: that in the middle of a blizzard. No, thank goodness, 136 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: which goes back to why I live in California, why 137 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: I love Los Angeles. I never will. It all comes 138 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: full circle, ever, And if I were a report like 139 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: Steve Gregory as someone, or Blake Trolley who was on earlier, 140 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: they don't have to go to a blizzard. Now, they 141 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: may go to a rainstorm, you know, or a fire, 142 00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: but they don't have to go to a blizzard or 143 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: the border or the border. Well Steve Gregory may go 144 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: to the border. Yeah, I mean he's I think he's 145 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: gone to the border. But well know, I'm saying they 146 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 1: have to go to the border, but this guy in 147 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: Waterloo doesn't. No, he doesn't have to do that. No, 148 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: But I mean, look, all things considered, California is the 149 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: place to be. No argument for me from a radio 150 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: TV standpoint, all of those things. But I get it, 151 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 1: and I still think that there is something that he 152 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: will be able to take away from this moment, in 153 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: the sense of that really embarrassing moment for him in Iowa, 154 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: which has turned into a viral sensation now to his credit. 155 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: You know, honestly, I wouldn't have done it if I 156 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: wanted to keep my job. I was gonna say. I 157 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: wonder how quickly after that show went off the air 158 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: he got a call from his boss. Oh, he got 159 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: a call after the first remark. I'm sure because what 160 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: people may not know is someone's always monitoring us. Someone's 161 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 1: listening to us right now from station management to make 162 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: sure we don't do anything too weird, too wild, too crazy. 163 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: And times the back phone will ring, we call it 164 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: the bat phone, when our program director will call, or 165 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: the news director will call, and he or she will say, 166 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: don't do that again. That wasn't funny, don't don't say that, 167 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: don't know, don't make that reference again. And that's all 168 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: it is. But yes, there's someone always listening. So to 169 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: your point, Eric, I'm quite sure. After he finished his 170 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: first sentence, someone was probably on the line at the 171 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: station telling him not to do it again. Now, as 172 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: it turned out, the station probably appreciates all the website 173 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 1: traffic is getting and all out. Yeah, it ended up 174 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,719 Speaker 1: working out. But in the moment, I'm quite sure he 175 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,719 Speaker 1: was probably resigned to the fact that this was going 176 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: to be his last day at work, probably and in 177 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: that moment he decided I'm okay with that because he 178 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: was standing in the blizzard reporting and it wasn't on sports, 179 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: and he probably felt that he hit hit bottom. I've 180 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: been there. I was in a tuxio no. I was saying, 181 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: I've been there in other jobs where you just felt 182 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 1: so disrespected. There was one boss I worked for. He's famous, 183 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: he's gotten in trouble in recent years for how he's 184 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: treated employees. I won't call his name, all right, I 185 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,359 Speaker 1: won't call his name, but he was so openly disrespectful, 186 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 1: and I told him, it's like, look, if you're gonna 187 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,719 Speaker 1: talk to me like we're on the street, then I'm 188 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: going to respond to you like we're on the street. 189 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: Are you okay with that? Because the way you're talking 190 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,439 Speaker 1: to me right now, you're talking to me as if 191 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: you're my father and you're not. You know, you're not 192 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: my father? Who then, who arn't in Harbor City, California, 193 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: Who thou art in heaven? He was neither. So I 194 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: did not respect him on that level. He was just 195 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 1: a guy who at that time was paying my bills. 196 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: But that did not give him the right to disrespect 197 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: me in that way. And we all have those moments. 198 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: We have to make that decision. Am I going to 199 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,319 Speaker 1: put up with more abuse? Or am I going to 200 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: go on the air and at the fool like this 201 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: guy did? And it worked out for him. I'm happy 202 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: for him and I think he'll get something out of it. 203 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: This is John and Ken Show k IF.

The 225 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving holiday is usually reserved for NFL football, Christmas Day 226 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 1: is usually reserved for NBA basketball. But what happens when Christmas? 227 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: You know where I'm going with this is on a Sunday, 228 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: and then you have these competing sports. When I stay 229 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: competing sports talking about television coverage because usually NFL is king, 230 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: but Christmas Day is largely NBA basketball For casual fans. 231 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: Christmas Day is usually the start of the NBA season, right, right, honestly, honestly, 232 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: but I like to watch NBA basketball on Christmas Day, 233 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: regardless of whether the Lakers are playing and losing or not. 234 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: But I just I think of Christmas Day in terms 235 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: of sports following sports, Um Christmas Dinner, usually the Lakers 236 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,959 Speaker 1: are on. They're usually one of the Christmas Day games, yes, 237 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 1: but this year we have a Rams Broncos game to 238 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: worry about as well. Neither those teams are going anywhere, 239 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 1: so there's about There will also be a Rams Broncos 240 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 1: game that day as well that I will not be watching, 241 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 1: And I have to pick whether I would rather be 242 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: bored by the Rams. And I can't even call them 243 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: the Rams because I can't even name half of the 244 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: guys playing right now. And Baker Mayfield is not a Ram, 245 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: all due respect, I understand he's on the team, but 246 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 1: he's not a RAM. This is gonna get way too 247 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: inside baseball for a second, but I'm rooting for Baker 248 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: Mayfield on the sole purpose that he gets a job 249 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: with another team next year, so the Rams get a 250 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: comp pick in return because they need all the draft 251 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: picks they can get this year. I agree with that 252 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 1: because there's no future for him in LA regardless. Yes, 253 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford is not retiring, so he's going to be 254 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: their quarterback. And Baker Mayfield, who I believe is decent, decent, 255 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's a franchise quarterback right, I 256 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: don't know what his future is gonna hold. It's just 257 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: not going to be with the Rams. Yes, hopefully so, No, 258 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: there will not be any quarterback controversy with the Rams. 259 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: I don't think he's going to stay through the end 260 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 1: of the season, honestly. No, he'll stay through the end 261 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: of the season, play out the last few games. But 262 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: for the future, we'll cross that bridge when we get there. Yeah. Yeah, 263 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: I don't think it's any big deal. But but the 264 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: point is they'll both be playing on Sunday, and for 265 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: some people it may be a difficult decision. Not for 266 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: me because both teams are bad. But when it comes 267 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: to Christmas, I always expect to watch the Lakers, right, 268 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: and this year it will be one of the first 269 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: times probably I think in my lifetime that they actually 270 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: have a road Christmas Day game. Yeah, usually it's at 271 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: Staple Center. Yes, and what to what is that this year? 272 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: Just why? Yeah, any particular reason, I honestly don't know. 273 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: Probably just the way the schedule worked out. But maybe 274 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: there's something already going on at Staple Center. Sometimes they 275 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: do run into that because I know it used to 276 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: be where the Lakers had to go on like a 277 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 1: thirteen game road trip because at that time the Grammys 278 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: were at Staple Center and there were other events that 279 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 1: they had to clear out a bunch of dates. Excuse me, 280 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: Crypto dot com. No, it's Staple Center, thank you. And 281 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: today today is actually the one year anniversary of the 282 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: last game at Staple Center. Yeah, I don't recognize it 283 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: as such. They don't pay me to call it crypto 284 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: dot com, so I'm not going to call it crypto 285 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: dot com. Yeah, but it's weird. Just I'm looking at 286 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: the schedule now, there's not even a Clipper home game 287 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: on Christmas. The Clippers aren't even playing, so yeah, it 288 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: has to be dark for a reason. There's probably someone 289 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: is paying for the youth. There's no way that Staples Center, 290 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: excuse me, Yes, Staples Center is going to turn down 291 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: the opportunity to make money in terms of concessions or 292 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: what have you, merchandise without one of the tenants right 293 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: la your home game on Christmas Day, Right, that's a 294 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: huge day for any sports franchise. No matter if the 295 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: Lakers are good or not, does not matter, does not matter, 296 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: if anything, you just want the advertisement of the arena 297 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 1: and the naming rights deal being used and being said 298 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: a hundred times on national TV on Christmas Day when 299 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 1: you don't have a lot of competition within your sport 300 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 1: or any sport for that matter. Yeah, and especially with 301 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 1: it being on a weekend this year, it's perfect. Everything's 302 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: lining up for me. Everything too bad. I got to 303 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: go to work in the evening Well and m Kelly 304 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: Show later that night. Yeah, Christmas Day. I appreciate that. 305 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: I appreciate that. I would say I tune in as well, 306 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: but I'll be there, so it's not really tuning in. 307 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: I'm in. That's how it works in radio. I'm I'm 308 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: glad we got through this entire segment without really talking 309 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 1: about the Lakers sucking, because that's really what I thought 310 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 1: was about to happen. Well, that's kind of like understood, 311 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 1: isn't it. I mean, we can talk about it. Let's 312 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 1: talk about it very quickly, like or suck. Okay. If 313 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 1: I am six forty, we're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. 314 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,679 Speaker 1: I'm a sports fan. I enjoy sports in all of 315 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: its forms, be it baseball, football, basketball, hockey, and every 316 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: once in a while I'll get to a live sporting event. 317 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 1: But I have some general rules. If I do go, 318 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 1: it will be a home game for the team I appreciate. 319 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,199 Speaker 1: I don't think i've ever maybe one time. Yeah, I 320 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: went to one Dodger game in Baltimore at Candid Yards. 321 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 1: That's not too hostile of a territory though. No, no, 322 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 1: it wasn't. And that's part of the reason. You know. 323 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: It was an inter league game. I happened to be 324 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 1: in town, and it was just a perfect opportunity for 325 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,160 Speaker 1: me to see my team in a city that wasn't 326 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: my own. But even then, I didn't wear a Dodger 327 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,400 Speaker 1: jersey because it was just happenstance. I didn't have any 328 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,880 Speaker 1: Dodger paraphernalia around or with me. But as a general rule, 329 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:23,400 Speaker 1: I don't think I would go to someone else's stadium 330 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: wearing my team's gear, I just think it's begging for trouble. 331 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: And I usually go to just watch the game, not 332 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,400 Speaker 1: to stand out as a fan, because there are too 333 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 1: many things which can go wrong. I mean, I just 334 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,360 Speaker 1: I'm not a person who's trying to call attention to myself. 335 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 1: I just want to see the game. And the only 336 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 1: way I think I can see the game in someone 337 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,399 Speaker 1: else's stadium is to not wear the jersey or team 338 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: paraphernalia of the away team. That's just me. And when 339 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: I see certain stories like this one, I think you've 340 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: got to have You had to have seen it by now. 341 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: About the Las Vegas Raiders fan. This woman who went 342 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 1: crazy for lack of a better word, because the Raiders 343 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 1: wont on a sensational play. Don't get me wrong, it 344 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 1: was a sensational play, but she was belligerent and berating 345 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 1: a New England Patriots fan right next to her. Now, 346 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: it's a video you have to see because she is 347 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: physically getting in his face and pointing her finger, and 348 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: I'm quite sure her breath smelled horrible, smelled like beer 349 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: because it was an alcohol induced haze. She was the 350 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 1: worst fan imaginable, and the restraint that this guy showed. See, 351 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 1: I couldn't have been that guy. A person who gets 352 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: in my face and it's going to stick their finger 353 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,439 Speaker 1: in the face and yell in my ear and probably 354 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: spitting all over me because they have no control, they're sloppy, drunk. 355 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: It's hard for me not to respond. And in this case, 356 00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: since it was a woman, the first thing I would 357 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 1: have said, I know, I would have said. I would 358 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: have said, dude, come get your girl. Come get your girl, 359 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 1: because if she accidentally touches me or intentionally touches me, 360 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 1: we're going to have a misunderstanding. I don't I don't 361 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,439 Speaker 1: ever want to put myself in a situation where I 362 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:20,400 Speaker 1: have to depend on me having complete restraint. Because it's 363 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,639 Speaker 1: a it's a sports arena, it's a stadium. I probably 364 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 1: had a drink or two myself. You're asking a lot 365 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 1: of me. But if you haven't seen this video, you 366 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,640 Speaker 1: have to see it. It's a Las Vegas radio fan 367 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 1: who's a woman, and she's verbally berating this New England 368 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: Patriots fan and as the story goes, this is the 369 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: first football game he's ever attended. The Raiders win unexpectedly 370 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: at the end, and she goes crazy. Listen to this, 371 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 1: She's clapped in his face. It's hard to hear. So 372 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: what fitted out? What fitted out? It's hard to hear. 373 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 1: You have to to see the video, but she's got 374 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: her finger in his face and he is not even responding. 375 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: He's just looking forward. His friend is pulling him back 376 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: from her so she doesn't accidentally hit him or becomes 377 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: a fiscal confrontation and a man steps in. I don't 378 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: know if it's her husband or a friend or whatever 379 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:02,199 Speaker 1: pulls her back to save her from herself. I couldn't 380 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: have been that calm. I just know me, and you're 381 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 1: asking too much of me. If it were my first 382 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: football game, maybe, but being a sports fan, I'm a 383 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: guy like I want to root like everyone else. But 384 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: I talk about the game. I don't talk to people 385 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: around me. I just don't for that reason, because I 386 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: don't want there to be a situation. And she was 387 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: determined to make this situation happen, And evidently it was 388 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:30,400 Speaker 1: filmed from behind them some other fan and they posted 389 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 1: it and it went viral, so much so that the 390 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: guy who was braided, he's been giving interviews talking about 391 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,199 Speaker 1: what happened to him. The owner of the New England 392 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: Patriots has invited him to a game and some other pleasantries. 393 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: But I want you to listen to him. His name 394 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: is Jerry Edmonds. This was the fan who was accosted, 395 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 1: and he gives his side of the story of what 396 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 1: happened that night. I mean, that was my first on 397 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 1: a full game. For the most part, the whole first 398 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: half of the game, I was kind of like silent 399 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 1: or whatever because obviously anybody who was watching the game, 400 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: so all the Raiders were up. What was the seventeen three? 401 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: They everybody started chirping. And I guess one of the 402 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: things that I said I got her to like come 403 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 1: towards me was every time Derek Carr messed up, I'd 404 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: scream up, that's the Derek Carr I know, And I guess, 405 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: I don't know what that little fire under her, But 406 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: then she comes. No, it was her husband that came 407 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,199 Speaker 1: over to me first, and he was like, are you 408 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: talking to me? Stop disrespecting me. I got confused, and 409 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 1: I was like, I mean, I don't like I didn't 410 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: know exactly what to say back, because I honestly I 411 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: thought he was joking. I thought he was joking because 412 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: some of the other Raider fans at the game, like 413 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 1: me and them, are going back and forth. It was 414 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 1: I played for banter even one of the some of 415 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: the other fans as they were leaving, they were taking 416 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 1: pictures with me because I guess how competitive the game 417 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 1: wasn't everything like that, but I guess this guy took 418 00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: it some other way. And then after that, that's when 419 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: I guess his wife wanted to jump in, and I 420 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: guess Church too. And honestly, I know the world be living. 421 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,719 Speaker 1: I know how it would have looked if I did 422 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: anything on my end to kind of like either natality 423 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,160 Speaker 1: or in any type of way trying to separate it myself. 424 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: So I kind of just did what I knew what 425 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: to do, or just like do my best to ignore 426 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 1: when she would do you have any rules for yourself, Eric, 427 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:26,640 Speaker 1: when you go to a state, because I know you've 428 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,439 Speaker 1: been to a number of RAMS games and it's it's different. 429 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,639 Speaker 1: It's so far it's more of a laid back atmosphere, 430 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: but they do have fights there from time to time. Yeah, 431 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: And I mean just it was funny listening to you 432 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 1: say what you would do if you were going to 433 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 1: an awaye stadium. I don't think I've ever been to. 434 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: I've been to a couple of Padres games down in 435 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 1: San Diego where the Dodgers are playing, but I was 436 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: wearing Dodgers shirts or a jersey or something. So I'm 437 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: the complete opposite of you. Yeah, but that's Dodger Stadium South. Yes, 438 00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 1: but I mean if I'm going to Boston to go 439 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: see the Celtics and Lakers play, I'll be wearing a 440 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,679 Speaker 1: Lakers jersey. But you better have your head on a swivel. Oh. 441 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 1: I will be prepared, for sure, and I will be 442 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 1: not what am I observant of my surroundings. But I'm 443 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: the opposite of you where I would I would definitely 444 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: wear the team that i'm rootings for apparel at an 445 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: opposing stadium. Yeah. I'm not a fan of that type 446 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: of confrontation because I want to enjoy my evening and 447 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 1: I know that I'm one word away from having a misunderstanding. Yes, 448 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: that's true. But if you're not looking for a problem, 449 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 1: usually a problem doesn't necessarily find you. Yes, but sometimes 450 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:46,120 Speaker 1: trouble comes looking for you. Yes. Yes, And putting on 451 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: the other team's apparel at an away stadium is an 452 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: open target and putting a bullseye on your back with liquor, yeah, 453 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 1: in the mix. I've always said, if you want fights 454 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: to stop happening at stadiums and in the stands, stop 455 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: selling liquor. But that will never happened with the amount 456 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: of money that these leagues make from the liquor brands. 457 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 1: Never happened. Brian, Are you a true true blue Dodger fan? Honestly? No, 458 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: take off that damn hat. How dare you rep my 459 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: city in all ways? But I can't say that I 460 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: watch every game, and I can't say that you don't 461 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 1: have to watch every game. But I mean, look, Eric 462 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 1: and I we are true blue Dodgers. I will never 463 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,159 Speaker 1: There are no other teams, okay an team all right? 464 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:26,679 Speaker 1: That that that don't have to do for now. Since you 465 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 1: have the hat on, I thought I would ask. I 466 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 1: just thought it'd be appropriate. You know, if you're gonna 467 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 1: wear the hat, at least you know know something about 468 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 1: the team or baseball or something. I mean, yeah, yeah, 469 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: it's not a BMW. But the damn man fall back 470 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,959 Speaker 1: we got to go to break. He's never gonna let 471 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:51,360 Speaker 1: you live that down. That's never gonna get old when 472 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: we get back FOURK reporter Niel Savetra will join me. 473 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 1: He's in for Tim Conway Junior tonight.

Yeah, 480 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,919 Speaker 1: that's the least interesting part. Well, coming from you, I 481 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 1: figured you'd say that. Fork reporter Nil Savedra, host of 482 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 1: The Fork Report Saturdays from two to five pm, and 483 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: our in house food expert. You were even and I 484 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 1: were commiserating off air about how people wrongly I perceive 485 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 1: this job. Oh yeah, part of it, I say, Hey, 486 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: everyone has one good radio show in them. Yeah. It's like, 487 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,919 Speaker 1: you know, everybody can write one book, maybe you know, 488 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: maybe on your topic of choice, right when you get 489 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: to decide what the topics are. But working in radio, 490 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 1: you're kind of dealing with whatever's in front of you. 491 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: And during the holidays it's a little bit more difficult 492 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,680 Speaker 1: because there are fewer things to talk about. Either it's 493 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: not thematically appropriate or consistent with a holiday vibe, or 494 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 1: there's just not a lot going on in the news 495 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 1: or both. I was thrilled to hear you cover some 496 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: stuff in City Hall and things like that, because then 497 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,680 Speaker 1: that gives me the leeway not to have to if 498 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 1: I don't feel like it. Well, that's the best part 499 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: of like being on from six to ten or later 500 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: in the evening. It gives you just a little bit 501 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: more freedom. Speaking of which you and I haven't spent 502 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: I mean circumstantially with the pandy and everything else that 503 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: came with it. But we hadn't spent much time, and 504 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,239 Speaker 1: I'm really looking forward to the New years hooking up. 505 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: So I wanted to get something on the books, maybe 506 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: like on the third of January, maybe in the evening, 507 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: getting dinner somewhere or i'd six. I'll probably be busy now, 508 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 1: you know. The mo Kelly Show is coming to an 509 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 1: end on the first. That's why I'm thinking you're gonna 510 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 1: have more time. No, I'm not gonna have more time. 511 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna I'm not doing the mo Kelly Show 512 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: on Cafe I anymore. I get that, and I was 513 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 1: that means they got to find something else to do. 514 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 1: I'm trying to be kind of busy, so like, well, 515 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: you don't have to do it at six and it's 516 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: like eight. You hang out at eight. Yeah, but I'm 517 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: trying to do stuff later in the evening. You know. 518 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: That's what about the next day? Can you do like 519 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 1: the fourth? I don't think so. I got some stuff 520 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: like the fifth. I'm doing like TV like any any week. 521 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. You tell my wife right now, it's like, 522 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: can you pencil me in? Can I get some time 523 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 1: with you? I know La mouhir, Yes you do. And 524 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 1: she does not talk like that. No, but she don't 525 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: have a lisp. No, but but she acts like that. 526 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: They can't get some time with you? You're all are 527 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: you seeing it right? Well, we'll try and pencil something in. 528 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 1: But six to ten roughly in that area is usually 529 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: pretty good. Maybe seven good for you, but not necessarily 530 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 1: good for me. I'm working on some stuff, some big 531 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: stuff in the new year. It's not the mo Kelly Show, 532 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: but it's some stuff, okay, and I I can't talk 533 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 1: about it on the air because it would be inappropriate 534 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 1: to talk about it on the air. I was hoping 535 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: maybe in the evening sometimes seven to ten ish we could. Yeah, 536 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: but that's like, yeah, that's like a prime time for 537 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 1: you to work or to look for work. Yeah, because 538 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: if you see me on TV, I'm usually doing stuff 539 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: in the evening. That's all. I just can't commit to 540 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: it right now. That's busy. This is what happens. I mean, 541 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 1: radio people aren't like this, but once you put them 542 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 1: on TV. Good nine, Irene. I was just talking about 543 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: my social media and you had to make fun of 544 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 1: the way I look. But that's okay, I understand. No, 545 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 1: I didn't funderstand. Funnily, there you go reflecting it. There 546 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 1: you go reflecting it so tubbly. Then when you haven't 547 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 1: gotten to cross in a long time, and now I 548 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 1: know why. No, no, no, we haven't got cross. We 549 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,479 Speaker 1: didn't get the cross in this direction where I am 550 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: crossing to you and you're in for Tim Conway Junior tonight.
