But something happened, 45 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 1: a dramatic life event for David Gascon, and I didn't 46 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: mention and he didn't mention it. And it's very uncomfortable 47 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: me not to do it, but I am. I'm continuing 48 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,679 Speaker 1: to honor your wishes. You you you holsted your side arm. 49 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: I appreciate that. But it's crazy because the dynamic that 50 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: you have with your ends and followers is crazy. Because 51 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: we had I had some female fans or followers of 52 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: yours that reached out and said, hey, I hope you're 53 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 1: doing well. You send a different lack the energy, lacked 54 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 1: the life, and then you had the mail that said 55 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: you're fucking terrible, you suck, You're horrible. What the fucke 56 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: loony on here? Instead it was bipolar. But three three 57 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: things I can I can sit you right now. One 58 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: is UM, I will never ever hack your Twitter account 59 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: like Jannasontenna Coople. I know you covered that earlier in 60 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: the week during your show, UM. And to UM, I 61 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: will never ever ever allow your wife to locate you 62 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: via snapchat if you're if you're at your brother's and 63 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: be doing any kind of extracurricular activity. So of course, 64 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: of course, of course. Uh. And just to address in 65 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: the mouth imlsia from the female perspective of the male perspective, 66 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: and it is a much different perspective. The women look 67 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: at things differently than the men, that's obvious. Um. As 68 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: far as the dudes, I like the comments I got 69 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: instead of gag on it's lifeless gone. Uh, that was 70 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: one of them. They were comparing you to a dead 71 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 1: fish with your contribution, which is odd because this is 72 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: not the first time this has happened. All right, I 73 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: remember we did the Sports Talk Verry interview and you 74 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: set that one out. Use I'm on the bench out 75 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: of that one. Listen, we live here in southern California, 76 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: and you can agree with me on this because you 77 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: did get married on the island. Um, when someone's riding 78 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: a wave, you don't want to get in front of it, 79 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,559 Speaker 1: you don't want to ride along with it. And because 80 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: I did my best to to not derail um, which 81 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: was a great podcast, and you would have just been 82 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: bland and unimaginative if you had added to that. But so, 83 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: and you're promising gascon here not to be boring, right, 84 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: this is not You're gonna and we're not gonna be 85 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: welcomed to Dolesville here with you on this this weekend 86 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: of podcast.

Another Mallard film review with Gascon as well. 170 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 1: I gave him a homework assignment, so we'll have that 171 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,839 Speaker 1: in a minute. But just briefly, it's a cameo. Now. 172 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: We had teased this a couple of weeks ago. It 173 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: is now reality. My friends Sports with Coleman, beloved Baltimore 174 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: radio personality Morning Man in Baltimore. One of my radio friends. 175 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 1: Have a couple of radio friends that do local radio 176 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: at the other places that are in my like chain 177 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: of chatting, text messaging, and one Sports with Coleman's in 178 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: that group. And so he said, Hey, I got an idea. 179 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: Why don't you sign up for this thing? Can you? 180 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: I said, what the fuck is cameo? And don't bother me? 181 00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: What are you? What are you doing? Um? And then 182 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 1: I looked at it, and I considered it, and we 183 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: talked about on the air, and I made the plunge. 184 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 1: I made the polar plunge. Like our friends in Minnesota, 185 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 1: I jumped into the Frozen Lake and I have joined 186 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 1: up with Cameo and it's pretty cool. Now. If you're 187 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: not familiar what this is, you didn't listen to a 188 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: previous podcast. It is a platform design for the shout out. Now. 189 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:22,840 Speaker 1: I have said for many, many years, I do not 190 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: do shout outs. I'm not a morning zoo show, and 191 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: that is true. We are not a morning zoo show, 192 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,319 Speaker 1: and we usually give out like brief shoutouts on the 193 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: radio occasionally, um, but that is what this platform is for. 194 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: And so I joined up about a week ago and 195 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,959 Speaker 1: I've been playing around with it. Now, keep in mind, 196 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 1: I didn't mention this on social media, all right, that's 197 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: number one or radio or this podcast, other than I 198 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: was considering it. But at that time I had not 199 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: signed up. And here's the second point here, which is 200 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,079 Speaker 1: the great thing about this show and the p but 201 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: that love this show and uh in all that, which 202 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: is amazing, and I don't deserve this. So I signed 203 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: up for it. I'm thinking, well, who nobody knows who 204 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: the funk I am. I'll just stay on here and 205 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 1: maybe I'll eventually get around to announcing that I'm on 206 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: this platform, and once I clicked the live button to 207 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 1: let people know that I was on already, a couple 208 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: of super fans of the show have popped my cameo 209 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: cherry and they have clicked on the button. I've only 210 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: done a couple of these things, and it's a video 211 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 1: platform greeting thing. There's a lot of real celebrities I'm 212 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: not a real celebrity that are on there, and uh so, 213 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: it's it's really cool if you're a big fan of 214 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: the show. And the way I was told by the 215 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: person from cameo who used to play by the Way 216 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: for the Patriots. How about that the guy that's uh 217 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 1: that that was my rep for this company through Coleman 218 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: is a former New England Patriot and was on one 219 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 1: of the Super Bowl winning teams, which I thought was 220 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: kind of neat. Um. I don't know if he wants 221 00:11:58,559 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: me to give his name out or not. I don't 222 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 1: know that we need to give his name out, but anyway, so, 223 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,199 Speaker 1: uh so, this guy was giving the whole rap. He's like, hey, listen, 224 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 1: you know, if you're big fans, you know they have 225 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: like a birthday coming up or a wedding and bar 226 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: mitzvah you know whatever, or you want to settle a bet, 227 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: you know, if you want me to rant like a 228 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: lunatic or something like that. Uh, this is what this 229 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: is for. And I was like, okay, I mean fine. 230 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 1: You know it's because it's one of those things you 231 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 1: don't have to do it. Nobody has to do it, 232 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 1: and nobody does it. It doesn't matter, it doesn't affect 233 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: me at all. People want to do it, I'll do it. 234 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: And it does cost a couple of bucks. It's not free, 235 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: so I will tell you that. But it's a personalized greeting. 236 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,719 Speaker 1: And from what understand, you can set it either you 237 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: can let it be public and let other people see it, 238 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: or you can just keep it private. And uh, I was, 239 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: I was pretty fired up, man. I had the first 240 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: two I had. Um was a woman whose husband was 241 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: a big fan of the show and and it was 242 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: his his birthday. You know, it sucks because of what's 243 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:54,599 Speaker 1: going on with the pandemics. It's hopefully getting kept to 244 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: an end here soon. People couldn't go out and and 245 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: you know obviously can't go out and socialized. I just 246 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: had my birthday while I go so I gave a 247 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: a shout out to him. And then also there was 248 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 1: a kid that I had a birthday and we we 249 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: said a load of him, which was which was cool. Man. 250 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: That was that? That Really that one was neat because 251 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: this kid's like eleven years old, and I flashed back 252 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: to when I was eleven and I used to stay 253 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: up late at night and listen to the radio. And 254 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: so that was that was pretty neat.

So I thought, well, they're making me do 333 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,160 Speaker 1: these dopey videos for YouTube, so I might as well. 334 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: And a lot of people, like thousands of people the 335 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott thing. We were like fifteen thousand views, around 336 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: fifteen thousand used on just one video alone, that's like 337 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: five minutes or whatever. So it's there's a lot of 338 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: people seeing these things. And that's just on one of 339 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: the platforms, not you know, they're on all the social 340 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,439 Speaker 1: media players.

I'm going 351 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: through some old hats. Here's one. You probably don't even 352 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: know who this is, but longtime listeners of Fox Sports 353 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: Radio might remember Mark Patrick, big big radio star in 354 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: Indianapolis who did our morning show. And uh, Mark, and 355 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,439 Speaker 1: I don't know if you know no that story, but 356 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 1: it was pretty cool because when I was doing the 357 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 1: overnight show and and he was doing the morning show 358 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 1: and we are, paths would cross, although he was doing 359 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 1: it from a different location. Um, but he had a 360 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 1: kid that was a pretty good high school baseball player 361 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: and he would send me, Um, we have correspondence, you 362 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: know about the kid and all that stuff.

We're 365 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 1: probably talking the likeve something like that, maybe right around then. 366 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: So this is like fifteen years ago. And uh, and 367 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: you know he's like, hey, my kids got a you know, 368 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: he got drafted by the you know, the the Yankees, 369 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, I don't know, you know, he 370 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: might go to college or he ended going to college 371 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: and he made the major leagues and he's he had 372 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 1: an eight year career. The guy named Drew Storing. I 373 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: don't if you remember Drew Orange played for the Washington Nationals. Yeah. Yeah, 374 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 1: he was the closer for the Nationals. He he had 375 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 1: a forty save season in the big leagues. And for 376 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: the first couple of years of his career he was brilliant. 377 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: And then I don't know what happened. I mean, he's 378 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,439 Speaker 1: you know, the clock hits hit zero and all hell happens. 379 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 1: But um, yeah, I met him. Cool. It was when 380 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,479 Speaker 1: when the Nationals came in and uh with the against 381 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 1: the Dodgers obviously, and I was like, hey, I know 382 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: you're old man, and uh and uh, it was pretty 383 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: It was pretty cool. So I'm off to where the 384 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: Mark Patrick had my homage to Mark Patrick on sports. 385 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 1: You're in the big chair is what he used to say. 386 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: That was one of his trademark catchphrases. You're in the 387 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 1: big chair now. Just because you're running out of hats 388 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: for right now doesn't mean you can't shy away from 389 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 1: from rocking the beanie. Be sure to catch live editions 390 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,919 Speaker 1: of The Ben Maller Show weekdays at two am Eastern 391 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: eleven pm Pacific. The Beanie. Yeah, you can rock some beanies. 392 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: That is that what this was all about. But do 393 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: rag also, what would you like me to wear? We 394 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: pull that off, but culturally inappropriate? No, but I just 395 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,640 Speaker 1: I mean, your head is huge. Yeah, I can wear 396 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: like a bandana on my head. Maybe I'll do that, right, 397 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 1: could do that? I get the banda old school like 398 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: you could be either old school Kelly Rudy or old 399 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: school Jim McMahon. Oh, Kelly Rudy is a good one. 400 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,199 Speaker 1: I like that. I think Kelly Rudy is. When I 401 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: think of Kelly Rudy, I think of him taking his 402 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: helmet off to get a gatorade shot or water shot 403 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: and then you see you know the yeah yeah, um, 404 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: but yeah, I think a beanie would work now because 405 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: you got when when you were nominated for your team's 406 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: every year on on your radio show.

As I said, because the cameo website, 440 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 1: I'm not even I didn't even promote it. I just 441 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,199 Speaker 1: said I might do it, and then I did it. 442 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 1: But it's cameo dot com. There's an app also that 443 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 1: they have and you know, I don't do it for me, 444 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: but there's like big, big celebrities that charge a ton 445 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: of money for these things. I'm I'm on the low 446 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:36,719 Speaker 1: end of it because I'm a nobody. But there's like 447 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 1: we went through some of the names.

I was playing around with the app. The 453 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: first one was too short, the second one was probably 454 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: too long, so I gotta mess around with that. I 455 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: apologize for that, but I'm figuring out. Uh. It's it's 456 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 1: pretty funny, man.

He's a good 462 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: BS artist. He's got the gift for gab. You um, 463 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 1: not not the gift for coaching, but the gift for gab. 464 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know anyway, So if you 465 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: want interest in that, I'll get guests on on there 466 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: and uh and we'll have a contest to see who 467 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 1: gets more cameos.

I 480 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 1: have the thin cut ribby, although maybe not anymore because 481 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: I guess there's no meat. It's all going away. Uh. 482 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: And then I chopped that up even more. I've got 483 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: the the onion, the bell pepper, and the pro Bolone cheese, 484 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,199 Speaker 1: not the whiz, not the cheese whiz, the pro Bolone cheese. 485 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: That's how you do a cheese steak, right.

I don't know if that's because of 495 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: a lack of meat that's actually coming into some of 496 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: our cities or because people are actually trying to trim 497 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: down and and and and change their way of life. Yeah. Yeah, listen, 498 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 1: And it's not for everybody, and uh it might be 499 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: total bullshit, but it works, um for me. So it's 500 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: it's the placebo effect, right, you know, human beings when 501 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: they even if it's a placebo and you tell them 502 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: it's a placebo, it still works for for a lot 503 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: of people. So um, yeah, it's been it's been good 504 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: for me and I you know, I've had a lifetime 505 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:37,199 Speaker 1: battle with being a big fatass, so this has really helped. 506 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: And I had a diet before I've told the story. 507 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: I lost a lot of weight and I gained gained 508 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 1: quite a bit of it back when I got married. 509 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,439 Speaker 1: And this has been a way to get back to 510 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 1: where I wanted to be. So um, it's it's worked 511 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: for me, and it's really mind over matter. If you 512 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 1: don't mind, it doesn't matter that you're not eating right. 513 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: You just to me, I just drink water. I don't. 514 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 1: Some people fast and they don't even drink water. But 515 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: I don't know how you do it, guess com. But 516 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: I'm I'll just drink water and fill my stumming up 517 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: with water. There's no calories in it. And then I figured, like, 518 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: I'll work out, although now I can just go for walks, 519 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 1: but it's a million degrees where I live, so I 520 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: can get you know, I can, I can sweat and 521 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: then that'll burn off the water and so then it's 522 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 1: no big deal. Yes, So I was reading some stuff online, uh, 523 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: and I always look at YouTube for for ways that 524 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: people do fast. And part of of what I have 525 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: done is I've stayed away from taking like supplements or 526 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 1: adding any kind of protein or creating to my water. 527 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 1: So I've done that, but then I've also gone days 528 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: where I'll have some beat juice put into my water, 529 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 1: have some creating put in, and then work out and 530 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 1: then fast. But for everybody that tries or does do this. 531 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 1: I experienced this and you didn't tell me this last week, 532 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 1: but I did complete a forty eight hour fast and 533 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: the first thing I ate, um, Ben, it would right 534 00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 1: through me. I mean seconds after I digested it is right, 535 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: three man. I would have appreciated a little heads up 536 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: after a da or fast, like, hey, this is what happened. 537 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 1: But I kind of experienced the ben mallor gall stone bladder. 538 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 1: You did, you had you had the explosion. No, I 539 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: didn't have it, but like I was, I was trending 540 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: in that right direction where I was like, all right, 541 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: get the funk out of my way, welcome to my world. 542 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 1: Now all we need to do is have your gall 543 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: bladder taken out and then we will complete the mission here. 544 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 1: But yeah, it is wild man. And you know, I 545 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:34,439 Speaker 1: think a lot of it is because I had my 546 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: gall bladder taken out. But I hear from other people 547 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: who do the fasting, like after you fast for a 548 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: certain over, I think it is about forty eight hours. 549 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: Is that there's that threshold and I usually try to 550 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 1: go once or twice a week. I've told the story 551 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: I tried to go over that. But this week my 552 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: wife has put me on. She's embargoed. I'm only a 553 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 1: lot to eat one meal a day, she says, because 554 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: she's just still my birthday celebration. So she said, I 555 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 1: can eat one meal at a but and then next 556 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 1: week I'll get back to the h my michig with 557 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: the fasting and all that full fasting. Because you junked 558 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 1: out a little bit. Eddie sent you something banana cream 559 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: pie and then banana cream pie. Yeah, you didn't send 560 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 1: me a banana creampie. Edie sent me a banana cpie 561 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: and he likes me more than you. He sent me 562 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: a banana cream pie, but he sent you a pie 563 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: and then lied to you about the vending machine. So 564 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: I know we brought We brought this up the other 565 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 1: night and he's declared victory no matter what he says, 566 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: he won. Um. But you we did talk about your 567 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: weird addiction to Mint kit kat. Yeah, my my, my 568 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: longtime grandfather passed away, uh several years ago, but he 569 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: got me onto to mint when I was a child. 570 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 1: And that's good because I've heard guest Gun that if 571 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: you don't get a kid into mint early, they don't 572 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 1: get into it like you cross a certain age you're 573 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 1: not into mint. I don't know if that's true or bullshit, 574 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 1: but I love mint. My my dad was a big 575 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 1: fan and still is of mint ship ice cream of that, 576 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 1: and so I then, you know, copied my dad. I get. 577 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 1: I get sometimes I get chocolate chip ice cream. I 578 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: love cookie dough. But I'll occasionally too reminisce and go 579 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: back to my youth. I will get mint chip ice cream. 580 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 1: It flashes me back to when I was like eight 581 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 1: years old. So as yes, so as soon as they 582 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: put mint kit cats in there, I kid you not. 583 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 1: Last week it was just the tail end of April. 584 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 1: I had the first two and then over the weekend. 585 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: I know that I ate seven more so I was 586 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 1: probably of the consumption of that one row. What does 587 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: it C six or B six or whatever. That was 588 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: all me. So it was not only a dollar, was 589 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 1: a dollar ten cents because I had used my debit 590 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: card for the transaction, So that was all me. I 591 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: was a guilty party. Yeah. I was thinking about bringing 592 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 1: back the vending machine draft Part two to determine what 593 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: will be the last item left. But then I thought, 594 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 1: now they're they're gonna start refilling the vending machine, so 595 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: there's no point in doing that. So on that you 596 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: can always do like vending machine versus um health healthcare 597 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: items here in the in the studio because I've heard 598 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 1: about you know, I gotta come. I gotta go in 599 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: there because I have not been in a while, and 600 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: I have to pick up some mail. And I was 601 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: supposed to do it last weekend and then and you know, 602 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 1: I didn't do it or whatever, but I'm gonna do 603 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: it this weekend. So I'm gonna have to go in. 604 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: And I told my wife, I said, listen, I'll take 605 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: you with me, but you gotta sit in the car 606 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: because this company has a zero tolerance policy. I don't 607 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 1: lose my job because I took my wife into work 608 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: to pick up the mail. So yeah, we got a 609 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 1: thermostat in here with obviously temperature for the studios, but 610 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 1: we have a thermometer as well handwipes. And then every 611 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: window door is plastered with these giant I heeart warnings 612 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 1: about bringing in your own headphones, gloves, masks, the whole smash. 613 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 1: Good times. Can we now get the operational desk? What 614 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: the hell did I watch? This is great? So I 615 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: gave guests got a homework assignment. Now, I have been 616 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: a big fan of documentaries for a long time, all right, 617 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: but there's only a few that reached top level, very few. 618 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: Most of them are fucking terrible, all right. They suck, 619 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: But I'll watch them anyway because I'm I'm not kind 620 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: of person. I realized that these things are all biased. 621 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 1: I think everything is biased because people have their own 622 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 1: bias in life from life experience. But anyway, so this 623 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 1: is called Operational Desk. It actually came out a couple 624 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 1: of years ago, and I mentioned it on the radio 625 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: when it first came out and I first saw it. 626 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 1: I think it was originally on Showtime, but it's now 627 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: on Netflix. And I cannot recommend this enough. So to 628 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: give you the backstory, and and I know, I wrote 629 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: a few notes down because I watched it again, and 630 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 1: I could watch this thing probably every other month and 631 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 1: not get bored with it, not get old with it, 632 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 1: not get tired with it, any of that stuff. So 633 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: it's a it's a documentary about essentially the early nineties, 634 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: wild and crazy late eighties, early nineties Miami floored, the 635 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 1: drug scene, the whole thing. It's a true story. That's 636 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 1: the most amazing part of this. When you watch it, 637 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: you're like, well, this is this gotta be bullshit, This 638 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: can't be real. This has to be made up. But 639 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: but no, it's about these criminal I guess, for lack 640 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:17,239 Speaker 1: of a better term, masterminds, who mixed with playboys in 641 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: Florida and it was sex, drugs and rock and roll 642 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: and hookers and guns and all kinds of debauchery. It's 643 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: it's like the story of the Cocaine Cowboys, but it's 644 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: like it's all interviews and it's it's better than that. 645 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: And the big parts of it, though, were the fact 646 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 1: that these guys, the reason they became operational Odessa is 647 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: the government got tipped off that these guys were buying 648 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: trying to buy Russian helicopters, and they succeeded and and 649 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: also bought a Russian sub. This is when the Soviet 650 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: Union crash. And the star of this podcast is a 651 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 1: guy named this gangster named Tarzan, who is one of 652 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 1: the most engaging bad guys you'd ever want to mean. 653 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like I want to work for 654 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: Tarzan after watching this. His real name is Ludwig Fainberg. 655 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 1: I believe it is his real name, and he's just 656 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: this like burly guy, very vibrant, smile, charming. He knows 657 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: he's done bad things, but doesn't seem to care. And uh, 658 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: you know, he thinks they're not really that bad and 659 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 1: all that. He's very enthusiastic about life and and uh, 660 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 1: so I guess he actually I think he's originally from 661 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: the Ukraine. He's actually not from Russia, but he lives 662 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 1: in Russia and he I guess he you know, goes 663 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: a side by side countries. Obviously been had many battles 664 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 1: and whatnot over the years. But but anyway, he came 665 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,359 Speaker 1: to America and was an enforcer. His first job when 666 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: he he came to American immigrated was to to work 667 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,880 Speaker 1: for the Gambino crime family in New York, New York. 668 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: So um, I I loved it, Gascott. I think it 669 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 1: was great that he ran a strip club called Porky's 670 00:34:56,600 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 1: in Miami, which was highlighted in the show. Oh and 671 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 1: then he became I guess he was the go to 672 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 1: guy for the Russian mob scene in South Florida, and 673 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 1: he started making tons of money. Like if you needed 674 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 1: if you needed drugs, you want to to tarzan if 675 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,239 Speaker 1: you needed women to hook up with you went to 676 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 1: Tarzan if you needed what anything, you need to kill somebody? 677 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 1: He went to Tarzan. He would know a guy. He 678 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 1: he knows a guy. And then there's the other character. 679 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 1: There's this a couple other guys. There was this exotic 680 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: car guy, this wand Almeida. Um it was like the 681 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: Miami playboy guy. And then you had my other favorite 682 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,359 Speaker 1: that all three of them were great. But this guy 683 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 1: Tony Nelson, Tony Yester, who was supposedly was I guess 684 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 1: he worked for Pablo Escobar. He's got ties to Pablo Escobar. 685 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:50,400 Speaker 1: And the guy is still an international fugitive today and 686 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 1: they interviewed him. Imagine doing a documentary and interviewing a 687 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:58,240 Speaker 1: fucking international fugitive. I mean, that just blows my mind. 688 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 1: But that just blows my mind that they did this. 689 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: It's unreal. And that you just mentioned Cameo. I was 690 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 1: actually initially petrified because when they did interview him, they 691 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:12,280 Speaker 1: went right out of the gate to ask him about 692 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 1: the actual transgressions that he had and he says, do 693 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,839 Speaker 1: you really want to talk about this? Let's not talk 694 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: about this, And I was like, oh ship, they actually 695 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 1: got him, and then he's ready to shoot these camera 696 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 1: guys and they cut away and then they go to 697 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 1: him and he's more relaxed. But you go back to 698 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 1: Tarzan real quick. Ben. It was amazing because the first 699 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 1: thing that he purchased when he landed in Miami was 700 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 1: a three fifty seven magnum. And then when they talked 701 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 1: about the helicopters that you mentioned, Um, I will spoil it, 702 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: but you can imagine we do these games and these 703 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 1: quizzes and you say, hey, how much is this or 704 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 1: how many people was this? And I usually shoot the 705 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 1: moon and you know, blow my wad on on over 706 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 1: shooting it on something. These guys bought helicopters for five dollars, 707 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 1: Russian military helicopters and I guess another spoiler alert, which 708 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,839 Speaker 1: is which is great. When they were negotiating to buy 709 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 1: the Soviet sub remember the option, they had the option 710 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:17,400 Speaker 1: to get the nukes, so you would offer these these 711 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:23,880 Speaker 1: you know, random hustlers from Miami nuclear weapons and uh, 712 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: it's just there. It's unbelievable you're into these kind of things. 713 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:33,320 Speaker 1: I cannot recommend this enough. And I actually he was curious. 714 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 1: I looked up a story was how did this all 715 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 1: come about? And so the documentary maker, um, he he 716 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:41,799 Speaker 1: said he had a friend of him tipped him off 717 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:45,839 Speaker 1: about Tarzan, right, the guy that's the start of the documentary. 718 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 1: And so at the time, Tarzan was in in jail 719 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,320 Speaker 1: and I think like Argentina or something like that. I 720 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 1: forget which country, and I apologize, but he was in 721 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 1: jail somewhere. So anyway, this documentary guys like, I gotta 722 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 1: I gotta talk this guy and see if we've got 723 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 1: a film. So he paid off the prison guard. He 724 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 1: said he paid the prison guard where Tarzan was staying. 725 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 1: Five He had been texting Tarzan on a on a 726 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 1: was it a BlackBerry blueberry? What enough blueberry? BlackBerry back 727 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: in those days, And so he contacted Tarzan. I guess 728 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 1: is a lot of this was originally shot about ten 729 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 1: years ago and then it came out in originally eighteen. 730 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: But so the guy goes to this prison, the documentary maker, 731 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 1: and you know, Tarzan is a he's a very nice guy, 732 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 1: but he didn't know this and and you know, he's 733 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 1: nice to your face, but he could stab you in 734 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 1: the back, those kind of guys. And so he goes 735 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,280 Speaker 1: and pays off the guy at the prison in whatever country. 736 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 1: It was five dollars to get into the prison, five 737 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:47,560 Speaker 1: dollars to get out alive. So so there was the 738 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:49,279 Speaker 1: five hundred dollars just to get in and then five 739 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: dollars protection so you don't get killed in the prison. 740 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 1: And then he sat down with Tarzan, and Tarzan you know, 741 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,840 Speaker 1: talked and just talked and talked and talked, and so 742 00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,879 Speaker 1: the guys like, we got something. And and then he 743 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 1: went down the list and went to one i'l made 744 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,360 Speaker 1: it and Wan was in for it and all that stuff. 745 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 1: And so then Tarzan escaped from jail and became a 746 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 1: fugitive and moved back to Russia. And then that allowed 747 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 1: them to interview him very casually Tarzan. So then I 748 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:17,879 Speaker 1: was trying to figure out how the fund did this guy, 749 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 1: Tony yester Uh come into this, right, the Pablo Escobar guy. 750 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,120 Speaker 1: And so this is this is so perfect. Right when 751 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 1: I heard this, I laughed my ass off, saying, when 752 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 1: you watch the documentary, will enjoy this. So so Tarzan 753 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 1: and Wan are regaling this documentary maker with all these 754 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 1: wild stories about their lives. Right, so they're still talking 755 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 1: to Tony, the the international fugitive Wan and and Tarzan 756 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,640 Speaker 1: Andre talking to this guy. So Tony is like, what 757 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 1: the funk? I want to be part of this, you know, 758 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 1: I was part of this, you know. And so he 759 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 1: out of the blue from a from the What's app, 760 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,839 Speaker 1: the documentary maker gets a random message on the What's App. 761 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 1: Hey it's Tony and uh and and he I forget 762 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,439 Speaker 1: what the line he used was when it was something like, uh, 763 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,120 Speaker 1: why don't you step up to the big leagues instead 764 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: of the minor leagues? You want to know what really 765 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 1: happened like that, you know, something some line like that 766 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 1: and uh. And then they had to negotiate and they 767 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 1: like I think it was in Africa and an airport 768 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: in Africa. It was. It's just crazy, I mean it is. 769 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:27,839 Speaker 1: It is an amazing thing that not only getting the helicopters, 770 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 1: having to get them out of St. Petersburg in Russia 771 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,359 Speaker 1: and all the obstacles they had to overcome. Yeah, because 772 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 1: you got you had gangsters in Russia when the government 773 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 1: was was obviously crumbling, and Jan had to fake it 774 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: like he was Pablo Escobar to come. Yeah, that's another 775 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:48,319 Speaker 1: gred that's another part of it. Yeah. I love the 776 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 1: fact that and he taught I think the most The 777 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,839 Speaker 1: most polarizing moment when all of this is when they 778 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 1: sent undercovers to to kind of unmask this entire incident. 779 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 1: Tarzan actually was getting it was in the middle of 780 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 1: a conversation when with an undercover and they were in 781 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,640 Speaker 1: a hotel room and he looks at a clock next 782 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:13,360 Speaker 1: to the bed and he says, that clock has a 783 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,400 Speaker 1: camera in it. That clock has a camera. And the 784 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 1: guy's like, what are you talking about? And he's like, 785 00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:20,239 Speaker 1: I know, I've seen that before. That clock has a 786 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 1: camera in And he's like, well, if you think there's 787 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:23,880 Speaker 1: a camera, to go check it. And he didn't call 788 00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 1: his bluff and he didn't check it. But it turned 789 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:28,800 Speaker 1: out there was a camera and a microphone because the FEDS, 790 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,720 Speaker 1: were you spying on these guys? Well that was Tarza 791 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 1: is like, how many how many hours did they have 792 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:42,799 Speaker 1: of talking about drugs, guns, murder and uh and all 793 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 1: the rest of these. Now I don't want to I 794 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:46,839 Speaker 1: don't know if I should do this or not, guess gun, 795 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,120 Speaker 1: but I looked up because I was curious what This 796 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:50,840 Speaker 1: documentary came out a couple years ago. I say, what 797 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 1: happened to these guys? I know what happened. Do you 798 00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: want me to share that now or should I? Should 799 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:58,319 Speaker 1: I not? Shire? Uh? Yeah, sure, I want to? Okay, 800 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:01,280 Speaker 1: all right, so you know two an this is spoiler. Also, 801 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 1: so what happened to the lives of these three guys 802 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,719 Speaker 1: since the documentary? So we'll start out we had the good, 803 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 1: the bad, and the ugly. Alright, the good I guess 804 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,280 Speaker 1: if you you're a fan of the documentary, is Tarzan 805 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 1: is still living in Russia. Um. He says he's still 806 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 1: committing crime because he's he's that's his career. But I 807 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:22,479 Speaker 1: guess in Russia it's allowed, so he's he's free. One 808 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:26,960 Speaker 1: al Mada, Um, the Miami playboy guy, is in jail. 809 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:33,319 Speaker 1: He was convicted on drug charges in I think, and 810 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 1: so he went to jail. He was sentenced to six 811 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:39,360 Speaker 1: years in jail for drug charges. So the Miami Playboys 812 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:41,880 Speaker 1: down for the count for six years. And then and 813 00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:47,319 Speaker 1: I just found this out that Tony Yester Nelson, Tony Yester, 814 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 1: the guy with ties to Pablo Escobar. Um, he was 815 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:54,799 Speaker 1: just extradited from Italy last year. I didn't realize this 816 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:58,720 Speaker 1: last summer from Italy to the United States to face 817 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 1: drug and guns artists so he is no longer an 818 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 1: international fugitive. The law enforcement caught up with him and 819 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 1: he is now he's a he's facing he's facing a 820 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:13,319 Speaker 1: maximum penalty of life in federal prison if convicted on 821 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:17,799 Speaker 1: all all charges. So he he could be down for 822 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,560 Speaker 1: the count they say from the light late nineteen eighties. 823 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 1: This is from the Orlando United States District Attorney's Office, 824 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 1: Middle District of Florida. It says here this guy Tony Yester, 825 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: Uh from the eighties to the early nineties are actually 826 00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:37,799 Speaker 1: late nineties, was part of a group involved in importing 827 00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 1: kilogram amounts of cocaine and other narcotics in the United States, 828 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 1: including by negotiating the purchase of a Russian diesel submarine 829 00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:50,920 Speaker 1: for Colombian drug smugglers. According to law enforcement, he fled 830 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 1: to South Africa in nine seven to escape prosecution and 831 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:00,719 Speaker 1: Uh then they began investigating in January fifteen. I guess 832 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:02,680 Speaker 1: they get tipped off or something like that, and they 833 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,279 Speaker 1: still doing marijuana and whatnot. But anyway, so it's a 834 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 1: lot of legalis and all that. So I'm guessing this 835 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 1: documentary guest did not help that. The You can talk 836 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,399 Speaker 1: to your old man about this but I'm getting I'm 837 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,799 Speaker 1: pretty sure that the law enforcement do not like when 838 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 1: a international fugitive does an interview for a documentary makes 839 00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:21,799 Speaker 1: him look bad, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, The 840 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 1: first thing he said when I when I talked to 841 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:26,000 Speaker 1: him about this, he said, like what you just mentioned 842 00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:30,320 Speaker 1: was the he's like cocaine cowboys, man. Because I thought, 843 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 1: obviously I wasn't in that, uh and the know all 844 00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:36,960 Speaker 1: at that time because I was really young, but I 845 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:40,040 Speaker 1: thought New York was a lot of this, and Miami 846 00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 1: was just more flare around it, you know, Studio fifty 847 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 1: four and whatnot, and how New York was back in 848 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:49,560 Speaker 1: the day with with the mob. But man, Miami was 849 00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:55,800 Speaker 1: so they were just drunk on drugs and women and 850 00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,759 Speaker 1: it was it was wild. Man. I you know, I 851 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 1: have a who wasn't there there in that time either. 852 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,800 Speaker 1: I've only been to Miami a couple of times, and 853 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 1: I was there last. I actually was there in I 854 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 1: was there for the World Series in ninety seven, so 855 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 1: I was around that time. I wonder if I crossed 856 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,759 Speaker 1: paths with Tarzan? How cool that? But the beautiful thing 857 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:20,880 Speaker 1: was that one Almeida was was custom making speedboats that 858 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 1: had twin turbines like like a plane, like a fucking 859 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,680 Speaker 1: planet at l A X or something like that at 860 00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,919 Speaker 1: like Guardia, but two million dollar boats and they were 861 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:37,640 Speaker 1: only to traffic in and out narcotics, cocaine especially, So, man, 862 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 1: what it was fun. It was a lot of fun 863 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 1: watching this thing and to see them actually pull a 864 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:46,240 Speaker 1: few stunts off. I mean, these guys could do no wrong. 865 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 1: These guys lived their best life even though a short 866 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 1: period of time. Yeah it is again. I cannot just 867 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,640 Speaker 1: wrap this up here. I cannot recommend it enough. I 868 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 1: only talk about these documentaries on a podcast like this 869 00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 1: if they are elite. Otherwise I don't waste my time 870 00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:03,240 Speaker 1: or just goof on them. But the Mallard doc rating 871 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:07,279 Speaker 1: score one to ten, with ten being like Get Me 872 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 1: Roger Stone or Supersize Me Too, or any of those 873 00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 1: great documentaries.

Operation Odessa. It's on Netflix right now, Gascon. 878 00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 1: Any score you want to give here, give it ten, 879 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: especially because the level of suspension, suspense and danger involved 880 00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 1: was was full tilt. This is this was I mean, 881 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,480 Speaker 1: we've we've watched some documentaries before and a lot of 882 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:48,839 Speaker 1: that had to do with with Nike and the shoe companies, 883 00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 1: and that's try the scheme, which was pretty good, but 884 00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 1: not as good as Yeah, Roger Stone you mentioned, but 885 00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 1: I love that. Get me Roger Stone, and that's one 886 00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:59,360 Speaker 1: of my favorites.
