I 21 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: have watched more of the world I usually pretend to 22 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: be a soccer I'm like most Americans. I wrapped myself 23 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: the flag, and I pretend to care about about soccer. 24 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: But I'm really like any talk shows and you're around, 25 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: you're a radio guy, your podcast guy. You know, we 26 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: look for the story. Yes, So I'm watching the World Cup. 27 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, what would make a good monologue here? Is 28 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: there's anything going on, any controversies, anything that that I 29 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: have a strong opinion about. So that's usually how I 30 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: watched the World Cup. And I just watch a lot 31 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: of going back and forth, and I'm reminded of my youth. 32 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: I was the fat kid on the A Y s 33 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: O team when I was growing up, and Alex I 34 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: always hated it because I was the fat kid and 35 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 1: it was hard to run and and you wanted to score, 36 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: and he's just you pretty much went back and forth 37 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: in the middle of the field and it was in 38 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: the ass, and I was like, what are we doing here? 39 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: You know, it's so stupid, and why can't we use 40 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: our hands? What's up with that? I don't understand? And 41 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: I was given these thumbs. I want to hold the 42 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: ball like. It's kind of like I used to complain 43 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: my dad. May he rest in peace. He loved using chopsticks. 44 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: We'd go to a Chinese restaurant. Really, yeah, he loved it, right, 45 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: And I'd always be like, Dad, listen, I was a 46 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,079 Speaker 1: little snotting those teenagers. I mean, Dad, listen, the fork 47 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: is better than the chopsticks. The chopsticks was there before 48 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: the fork, and when they invented the fork, we didn't 49 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: need chopsticks anymore. He and be like, oh, I like 50 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: you with the chop because he had gone to Japan 51 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 1: on a business trip. Yes, exactly, so he loved the 52 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: way that they did things in that country and he 53 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 1: wanted to do it. And I was always no, no. 54 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: You know, it's like once the car team, nobody needed 55 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 1: a horse and buggy anymore. It's like we moved on. 56 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: Once the computer came, the typewriter went away, once the 57 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: cell phone arride, we didn't need pay phones anymore. And 58 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: and just that's kind of the way it works. Like 59 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: once we had once we had social media, we didn't 60 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: need a o l anymore. You know, the things that 61 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,959 Speaker 1: seems evolved and all that, But that's rights right. You 62 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 1: know what's funny though? Then I will tout myself a 63 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: little bit here because you brought up Japan. I am 64 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 1: probably the only person you will ever meet in your 65 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: life that has I said this two nights ago. Japan 66 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: was gonna upset Germany in the World Cup and they did. 67 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: Now did you did you pick that because of loyalty 68 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: to Japan or because part of it? Alright? Alright? The 69 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: big the biggest reason why is and I've known this 70 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: watching a lot of World Cup in my time. Now 71 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 1: to Germany does one thing very well. One used to 72 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: be winning World Cups, but now in my lifetime, it 73 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: is to upset you in the best way. They know 74 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: how to lose games they absolutely shouldn't, so they're like 75 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: the Dodgers in the playoffs in percent Dave roberts managing 76 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: the German to me like, spot, yeah, he needs something 77 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: to do over why not? And also because Tom Brady 78 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: cursed them because he went over there to play, so 79 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: I knew that was gonna play. Effect to Dave Robertson 80 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: is probably like, well, I already screwed the Dodgers up. 81 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: Let me see if I can screw up some make 82 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: the wrong move, follow the analytics. So on this fifth hour, 83 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: on this Saturday fifth hour, we have Karayaki Jockey splits, 84 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 1: Phille Quirky Turkey first time, short time. We'll see what 85 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: else we have time right, love that name, all right, 86 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: So we'll begin with this this past week. It's the 87 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: life of Mather, the life of Alex Tisher, who's in 88 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 1: for Danny g and Mazel. Told to Danny before I 89 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: get started with my story, because married now, he sent 90 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: me some photos. I his wedding was beautiful wedding. He 91 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: also sent me some photos. I'm sure we'll talk about 92 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: when he gets back on the podcast next week, but 93 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: we talked about where I went after my wedding in Kauaii. 94 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: There was a restaurant I went to and Danny went 95 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: there and he took a picture, so it was kind 96 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 1: of cool. I was reminisced, Oh yeah, I came out. 97 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: Next year will be my tenth year. I can't believe 98 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: I've almost been married ten years. Ben almost next year 99 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: is the tenth. I never thought i'd ever get married. 100 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: So to be the idea, ten's not a big number 101 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: because those people have been married thirty, forty fifty years 102 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 1: and all. But in my world, ten years is a 103 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 1: big number because I never thought I would get to 104 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: that point. Anyway, that's next year, Maslo Ben, that's a decade. 105 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: That's huge, alright, so Terayoki jockey. This past week I 106 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,919 Speaker 1: made my first pilgrimage alex to the to the to 107 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: the Holy Land, to the Mecca. Really so Fi no 108 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: Sofi Stadium, not that. Yes, I had a religious moment. 109 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 1: I was at so Fie in the hood in Inglewood, 110 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: good exactly exactly. But back in the old days, I 111 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: was a regular at all these games. And the moment 112 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: that stopped happening, well, there was a couple of things 113 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: that happened. Ever since COVID I cut back. I could 114 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: not stand the protocols all these teams had just the game. 115 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 1: It was so stupid, and even though I qualified for 116 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: most of them, I still thought it was ridiculous. And 117 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: so I didn't want to have to show my papers. 118 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 1: I you know, some of my relatives had to show 119 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: their papers. I just didn't think it was necessary. You know, 120 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: we didn't have a good time last time either, exactly 121 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 1: to each their own, you know, And I just thought 122 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: it was a little overbearing by the industrial complex of 123 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: professional sports, and so that turned me off. And plus 124 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: the players are assholes out there. It's very it's very 125 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: you know, you got all the media. Now. When I 126 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: started the media, a lot of guys were assholes in 127 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: the media, tried to get under the skin of the players, 128 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: tried to get a story, tried to be you know, 129 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 1: you were not the friend of the player. Now the 130 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: media all tries to suck the toes of the players. 131 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: And there's a few guys like, you know, I love 132 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: radio because I'm I'm obviously not Parker's not like that. 133 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: It was one of the reasons I like how Rob operates, 134 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: and but a lot of guys are are just trying 135 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 1: to be fans and friends of the the athletes, and 136 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: it's just that's to me, that's not the relationship you're 137 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: supposed to have anyway. So I haven't got out there, 138 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: and now I go out rare and appropriate, married family, 139 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: the whole thing, far away from the venues. I live 140 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: in the north Woods, um and it's almost everyone I 141 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 1: was close to. Also, I was out there. I started 142 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: covering baseball and basketball was nineteen and I went every night, 143 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: either I was at a game or I was doing 144 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: the show. I was at a game doing the show. 145 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: And I did that from the age of nineteen until 146 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: almost uh forty, you know, very much twenty years of 147 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: my life where I did that. But now it's been 148 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: long enough where like most of the people I know 149 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: that I was really good friends within this, this was 150 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: my my social scene. They're they're either one of three things. 151 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: Most of my media friends that I was really close 152 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: to are either retired and they've moved away, unemployed, or dead. 153 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: They've met the I mean, there's not there's not allowed. 154 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: So I picked my spots, but I was out there. 155 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: I wanted to see certain team at certain teams I 156 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: go out. This had to happen to be one of them. 157 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: I have some friends occasionally that visit at the time. 158 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: I know in other cities from the show, and the 159 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: Chiefs were one of those teams. They're playing the Chargers 160 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 1: last week. Now. I also wanted to see Patrick Mahomes. 161 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: I had not seen him in person, the quarterback. The 162 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: Chiefs are a wagon one of the teams that is 163 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 1: the favorite to get to the super Bowl. But I 164 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 1: wanted to say hello to my friend Josh Klingler, who 165 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: is a radio guy.

And I've met Bob before, I've seen Bob, 172 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: I had not met Josh and he was in town, 173 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: and so I said, okay. The game schedule wise, was 174 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: at night. That made it a little easier because I 175 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: just going to the studio after I get done, and 176 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: it just made a lot of sense, and so, you know, 177 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: it was good. I checked a lot of boxes, I 178 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: got there super early, I beat the traffic, I set 179 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: my stuff up. Text Josh. We had a meeting. I 180 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 1: sat shaded my way across the bowels so far stadium. 181 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 1: I went down to the Kansas City Chiefs Radio Network 182 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: booth and we hung out for a little bit. Was 183 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: great catching up with him. He introduced me to some 184 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: of the people he works with. We told a few 185 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: radio stories, which I love, and it was totally worth it. 186 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: So then I went back to the main press box 187 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: and I sent my my computer up and stuff, and 188 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: I started brainstorming. I was trying to come up with 189 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: ideas for the monologue. And I was watching the late 190 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: games and the television window and all that stuff, and 191 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: I was, I've been fasting. Alex says, you know, I'm 192 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: a big believer in a minute fasting, is there you? Uh, 193 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: So we both believe in that. And I was doing 194 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: my thing and I looked at a pregame meal, which 195 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: is free to the media, but it didn't look good 196 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,959 Speaker 1: to me. That's not that's not what I like. They 197 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: had like Hawaiian pork ribs, which wasn't really my thing. 198 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: They had hooly hooly grilled chicken on the bone, but 199 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: it didn't look very appetizing. Doesn't sound advertising. No, they 200 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: had fried rice green beans, but that's not that. But 201 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: you don't break a fast with no, absolutely not. So 202 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:37,599 Speaker 1: I said, you know what, I'm gonna pass because I 203 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: decided to punt because I know these NFL teams all 204 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: they do is feed the media. They just it's a 205 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: free you know, freeloaders update. Uh and it's just gluttony. 206 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: So at halftime they roll out a totally different menu. 207 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,959 Speaker 1: So you have the pregame meal, then they have the 208 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: halftime heal. They also have a postgame meal, but I 209 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: knew I was gonna be gonyday. Yeah, they have three 210 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: meals within the span of a few hours. So anyway, 211 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: I waited and I made the right choice because at halftime, 212 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: and I actually went there a little bit before halftime, 213 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: I want to get to jump on the food. Uh. 214 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 1: Just before halftime they put the new food out and 215 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 1: they had beef and chicken taraaki a stick loaded loaded 216 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: up on that and some egg rolls and uh, you know, 217 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: pretty solid. Uh. My wife hates Asian food. I love it. Uh, 218 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: and so she's missing out. I agree. Um. And so 219 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 1: I don't know if it was good or not. You 220 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: ever eating something else where you're not sure if it's 221 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: good or it's just because you're starving too many times. 222 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 1: We're living the same life in that regard. So I 223 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: wasn't really sure whether it was good or whether I 224 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: was just but I can't a better question. How did 225 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: it sit with you? Ben? Oh, it's it was fine. 226 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: That's a good sign. Yeah. Um, And it tasted great 227 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: either way. And I'm much in, you know, enjoying my food, 228 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 1: and I'm going big, you know. I I I really 229 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: try to chat out. I like one hour to eat. 230 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: I try to limit it to one hour. The thing 231 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 1: about intermitte fascing is, you know, you can usually get 232 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 1: full pretty quick because you don't eat that much. But 233 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: you can eat as much as you you want in 234 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: theory the hour and you're fine. And I feel like 235 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: that's a good trade off. I'm willing to do that. 236 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: And I'm chowing down. I'm I'm working it. I'm like 237 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 1: the aryaki jockey. I keep going back. I've got no 238 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: shame in my game. It's all you can eat. So 239 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: I keep watering, getting more, and I'm eating and this 240 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: gentleman comes up to me and all of a sudden 241 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: he says like I forget exactly what his opening line was, 242 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: and somebody, are you bend excuse me? And I'm like, oh, man, 243 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: you know and I'm like, oh, this is not gonna 244 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: be good as somebody wants to meet me. And now 245 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: keep in mind again, Alex, I am in full porky 246 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: pig mode at this point.

So shout outs Iowa Sam who covered 302 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: the radio shows for me, and so I was able 303 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: to go see some family. Right. So we have some 304 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: family which is luckily close by because most of my 305 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: family is outside the country, Ben, My mother's from Macedonia, 306 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: my dad is from Germany. So most of our families 307 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: either in Germany, Macedonia, Croatia, Bosnia, Heatskovina, Australia. They're everywhere, right, 308 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: So we have some small group of family that are here. 309 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: One of them is his name Winston, So shout out. 310 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 1: He invited my mom over. She's going to go there. 311 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: But my mom also had plans to see somebody else after, 312 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: and so I came home. This is two nights ago. 313 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 1: This is the same time that I decided to do 314 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: all this stuff as well. And my mom's pulling up 315 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: and she was at a dinner event. It's called the 316 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: Kaiser once a year Christmas party, Ben, And my mom 317 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: is lucky enough to get an invitation there because she 318 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: goes with the family friend. Her name is Karen Martin. 319 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: And so what's really funny, Ben, is they're both at 320 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: the house. It's twelve thirty in the morning, because you know, 321 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: I take an hour to get home from the studios, 322 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: and so they're at the house and they're unloading these giant, 323 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: massive containers of flowers, Ben, like some of the most 324 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: elaborate bouquet sets I've ever seen in my life. And 325 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: you want to know what's the best thing. It was 326 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: from the actual Kaiser dinner party. And my mom takes 327 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: as many of the center arrangements she can when she 328 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: leaves because they throw them away. Oh so my house 329 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: looks like a floral house the day after, okay, And 330 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 1: and that's cool, and so it smells good for a while, 331 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: but then they eventually die and then Yeah, it's cleaned 332 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: all that up right. Yes, So is this Kaiser the 333 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,959 Speaker 1: medical Is that what we're looking at? Yes, Kaiser Permanente. 334 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: So she gets to go to this once year and 335 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: she always says like, I hope to meet a doctor, 336 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: right because my mom is saying so she's she's always trying. 337 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: And I was like, Mom, it's the year you're not 338 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 1: going to try the chimado. And so this is what 339 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: I'm building up to, Ben. Is the person she goes 340 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: with is my ex girlfriend's mom. It's I was with 341 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: my ex girlfriend for seven years. We were high school sweethearts. 342 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: It was a great relationship. It ended fun and everything. 343 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: But the families were so close, Ben, because I didn't 344 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,719 Speaker 1: have family out here. We were there for Thanksgiving, for Easter, 345 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: for every holiday, Christmas, you name it. We were always 346 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 1: invited and always went well. After we split, Ben, that 347 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:47,120 Speaker 1: didn't stop. It's just I stopped going, but my mom 348 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:51,400 Speaker 1: still went over. It's so for this Thanksgiving, that's why 349 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: he said, splits Phil, I will be going to my 350 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: ex girlfriend's mother's house to spend the Thanksgiving night and 351 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 1: having dinner. All right, who so you that's is she 352 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 1: there or is she not? There she is she is not? Okay, 353 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 1: all right, my ex girlfriend is in Seattle, Okay, But 354 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 1: if she was there, would you still be invited? Is 355 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:18,199 Speaker 1: she is she? That's a great question. Is she with you? 356 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: Because usually one person when a relationship ends. I'll be 357 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 1: Dr Laura here from back in the oldies on radio, 358 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 1: but usually it ends because of one person. These people 359 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,440 Speaker 1: that say it's a mutual agreement, I say, bullshit, Yeah 360 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: you're you're right. You caught me, Ben, it was okay, 361 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 1: So it was more, it was more your uni. She 362 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 1: broke up with me. Yes, she wanted to find her 363 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: place because we were young. We had a house together. 364 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 1: Like Ben, I lived a whole different life. That could 365 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: be another story if I ever fill in for you again, 366 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 1: which is called Alex the caretaker, and I was a 367 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,919 Speaker 1: caretaker of an estate. That's a whole another story. I 368 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: remember you vaguely telling me. He didn't get in a 369 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 1: lot of details, so I don't know your story. But 370 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: so is interest. She got rid of you, so she 371 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: had the problem with you, then you didn't have the 372 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,239 Speaker 1: problem with her, right, no problem at all? Okay, all right, 373 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 1: And I'm the kind of guy then where I firmly 374 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: believe like, whatever happens in a relationship, I chose to 375 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 1: be with that person, you know, like, oh no, ill 376 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 1: will she can sleep with my best friend and I'd 377 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: be like, all right, Well, at least I know for 378 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,880 Speaker 1: both of you. I'm just saying, like, personally, at least 379 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: I know. But hey, I will never hold ill will 380 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 1: it chard's anybody. I always blame myself. Yeah, that's something 381 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: that's changed. I I you know, I was younger, I was. 382 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 1: I used to get a tough time dating. Women were 383 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 1: very mean to me. Why that's a big gall bladder. 384 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 1: So I but as I've grown and I've gotten you know, 385 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,400 Speaker 1: I've gotten older, and I've seen, you know, live experience 386 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: more life. I kind of I figured out more. But 387 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: I had some some awkward dating situations that I dated 388 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 1: all that much. But a lot of it was because 389 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 1: of the job and the hours I worked. And I've learned, 390 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 1: and I learned this at a young age. Women when 391 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 1: you're dating them need to get all the attention. And 392 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 1: if your job is getting the attention, they get rid 393 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: of you pretty quick. They don't even if you have 394 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 1: a cool job, they don't like that. I'm now stereotyping 395 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 1: women but I believe well, I mean, you are accurate. 396 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 1: Look at Tom Brady, guy freakings, a super Bowl winner, 397 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 1: arguably the goat, and his late as I had done. 398 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: If Tom Brady can't keep a woman, we're all in trouble. Man. Yeah. Yeah, 399 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 1: because of his job. It was his gates either that. 400 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: Either that or she had just he had just Zell 401 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 1: invest in ft X and she lost a fortune either that, 402 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 1: I don't know one of those two. It's fair. But 403 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: you know what's funny about the whole story, Ben is 404 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 1: like even when I go, when I went to the 405 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving dinner with him and everything, everyone still treats me 406 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: like family. Everybody loves me. Her grandma would tell me 407 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: all the time when we first started dating. She's like, runaway, 408 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 1: you're better, you don't need her. I was like, it's 409 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,439 Speaker 1: he has her granddaughter, what are you doing? And so 410 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,439 Speaker 1: when I go, they love me man like and they 411 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: still have. Technically, my dog lives there, Ben, that's a 412 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: whole that her side thing. So because like me and 413 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 1: my ex at the time, we both we adopted a 414 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 1: dog at the same time. But since my mom runs 415 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: a daycare at the house, we thought it would have 416 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:09,919 Speaker 1: been better to leave the dog there, and so that's 417 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 1: where my dog actually lives. So it's like technically their dog, 418 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 1: my dog kind of thing. They're the kids, Ben in 419 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: the family hoping that somehow there'll be a nice rekindling 420 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: of the relationship down the line or something like that. 421 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: Is that so? I thought so in the beginning, But 422 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: now she's married with a kid, so I don't know 423 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 1: if that's that's gonna work. That would be very awkward. Yeah, 424 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be, but you know, like Ben, I'm not 425 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 1: an awkward guy. Second man in I don't know that. Yes, 426 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 1: be good on that. I'm first choice only Ben, I'm 427 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 1: the first choice. I'm the dog kind of guy. So 428 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:43,959 Speaker 1: I'm not a bench player. So firstly, I was kind 429 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 1: of like thinking to myself, like if she was there 430 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: and she was cool with it, I'd be cool with it, 431 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 1: Like I have another way. Oh, I got nothing against him, 432 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: so that's why. But then the other I would the 433 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 1: husband exactly. That's where I just say, I'm a family friend, 434 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: don't you you know, don't worry about it. We did 435 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,439 Speaker 1: not sleep together for seven years, is that did not? No? No, no, no, 436 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 1: I didn't count all the times to know by heart. 437 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,959 Speaker 1: Don't worry about it. It was no wham bam thanking man, 438 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 1: none of that. I did not at all. No, no, no, no, 439 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: it's just funny. Man. I had to tell you this 440 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: story because it's crazy to me to think, like it's 441 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,160 Speaker 1: been over ten years since we were together, but I'm 442 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 1: still going to I went to her mother's house for Thanksgiving. Yeah. 443 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 1: I was never that close with anyone that you know, 444 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 1: I dated before my wife. Obviously I'm friends right, but 445 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: before that, No, that was that was not the case. 446 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: So the Quirky Turkey, I promised this on the overnup 447 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 1: and I have to deliver.
