First of all, I'm in beautiful Oregon. 0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:25.480 I got a shout out Eugene again. I stole one 0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:27.800 of the headsets we're going to use later today for 0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:30.440 the live broadcast, so I hope this is okay. It's 0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:33.000 one of the little mics like Janet Jackson where you 0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:34.280 adjusted in front of your mouth. 0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:37.480 Oh yeah, yeah, I know that kind of way. Now. 0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:41.839 That is Lorraine uh territory. She's always She's not from Eugene. 0:01:41.880 --> 0:01:44.000 She's from out in the Styx in Oregon. That's right. 0:01:44.080 --> 0:01:46.120 Yeah. She told me that her high school there was 0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:47.360 like two hundred people there. 0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:49.120 That's pretty crazy. 0:01:49.280 --> 0:01:53.360 Yeah, I had eight hundred kids in my graduating class alone. 0:01:53.680 --> 0:01:55.800 Well I barely graduated, so I don't even remember how 0:01:55.800 --> 0:01:57.920 many kids we were there, but there were a lot 0:01:57.960 --> 0:01:59.600 at the high school, you know, the main high school, 0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:03.880 busy setting off stink bombs. Yeah, it was barely I 0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:06.360 had trouble waking up, so it was in the morning. 0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:09.240 I was more of an afternoon person. Although the kids today, 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:12.560 you know these kids today, Danny, I've heard that they 0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:15.200 do adjust the schedule in high school, that you can 0:02:15.280 --> 0:02:17.760 start as late as nine or ten o'clock at some 0:02:17.800 --> 0:02:19.960 of the high schools. You can adjust your schedule so 0:02:20.000 --> 0:02:22.639 you could actually sleep in a little bit. But back 0:02:22.680 --> 0:02:24.679 in our day, Danny, you know, you had that eight 0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:25.200 a n. 0:02:25.120 --> 0:02:26.800 And there was none of that. They didn't let us 0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:29.320 off campus for lunch either. I don't know about your school. 0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:33.560 There, we were allowed you only as a I think 0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:35.280 it was a junior or senior. You could go to 0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:37.800 the local shopping center. There was like one shopping center. 0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:40.200 So what were they saying by that that it was agist? 0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:43.920 Freshmen and sophomores were too immature? They thought, yeah, but 0:02:43.960 --> 0:02:45.000 back then it didn't matter. 0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:47.840 Nobody cared. But now now there would be lawsuits and 0:02:47.880 --> 0:02:50.079 it'd be like, you know what the heck? And we're 0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:53.680 also celebrating today is Endangered Species Day, And I know 0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:56.560 for you, Danny, your life is being interrupted because of 0:02:56.639 --> 0:03:00.880 endangered species on a on a semi regular basis. Is 0:03:00.880 --> 0:03:01.560 they is it done? 0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:01.760 Now? 0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:02.800 Are the agent? 0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:02.960 No? 0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:05.760 They are nowhere near finishing this. And you've heard us 0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:08.960 on the podcast before, you know, Ben is alluding to 0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:11.960 that first ever, at least for our part of California. 0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:15.200 Bridge across the one on one freeway, which is a 0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:20.600 wildlife crossing. Did you see the article I sent you 0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:23.680 a couple of days ago. Everybody in southern California was 0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:26.280 so excited because someone took a picture of an owl 0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:29.880 crossing the frame. They just have the frame of it 0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:33.040 up and an owl went across the frame and people 0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:35.680 were celebrating, like, look, it's working already. 0:03:36.520 --> 0:03:36.800 All right. 0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:38.560 Hate to tell you this, but owls have wings. 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:43.040 Yeah now I shouldn't have to preface this, but listen, 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:46.720 we like animals, we also think we do. 0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:48.280 I have like six of them at my house. 0:03:48.520 --> 0:03:49.840 Yeah, yeah, exactly. 0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:52.520 This just strikes me as being and I have a 0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:53.600 cat and a dog too. 0:03:54.280 --> 0:03:56.400 My favorite part of that post you sent me was 0:03:56.440 --> 0:04:01.160 the comments of the animal lover who just thought this 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:03.960 was the greatest thing ever. You know, this is unbelievable. 0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:07.920 And these are the same people who think w NBA 0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:11.000 players should get paid a lot more money, millions more. 0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:13.400 These are the same people, because the people in the 0:04:13.400 --> 0:04:15.880 comments are like, they should have at least a dozen 0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:19.680 of these built already in California. Yeah, this thing is 0:04:19.760 --> 0:04:22.720 costing over one hundred million dollars. 0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:27.120 Yeah it was privately financed, not all of it. Finance, 0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:27.880 not all of it. 0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:28.440 Yeah. 0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:30.880 Yeah. Can't they put their name whoever financed they put 0:04:30.880 --> 0:04:33.680 their name on it? Yeah? Yeah, you know, why not? 0:04:34.040 --> 0:04:36.240 So the owl can poop all over the name that's 0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:37.240 written on the bridge. 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:40.680 I go back to one of my Boilermaker takes, Danny 0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:42.880 and you remember how upset people would get when there 0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:45.920 would be a big charity story, and I would point 0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:48.720 out that real charity you do not do it with 0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:51.320 a camera crew. It's like when Russell Wilson would go 0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:54.400 to the children's hospital, he would have a makeup person, 0:04:54.920 --> 0:04:58.400 he would have a director. You know, it's like no 0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:00.240 and I and I will give credit to the lake 0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:04.120 Kobe Bryant because Kobe Bryant, we found out after he 0:05:04.160 --> 0:05:07.440 did he died, that he was a regular children's hospital 0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:10.320 in LA and Orange County, but he did not bring 0:05:10.360 --> 0:05:13.760 a camera crew with him to document everything to the children. 0:05:13.760 --> 0:05:16.840 Does that's real charity? That's back. 0:05:17.000 --> 0:05:19.039 The way that story went was he had the Michael 0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:22.000 Jackson disguise on to go in because he didn't want 0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:22.640 to be noticed. 0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:26.280 Yeah, that's wonderful. That's the way, you know, Bravo, that's 0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:27.440 the way it should be. Like anyway, I don't want 0:05:27.440 --> 0:05:28.839 to get carried on that. But if you do charity 0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:30.160 and then you put your name on it, and I'm 0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:31.400 not saying you shouldn't put your name on it if 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:32.600 it's much of money, and you want to do it, 0:05:32.600 --> 0:05:34.880 but don't pretend like it's you know, some great act 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:37.000 that you're not trying to get attention for. You're obviously 0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:41.159 putting your name on it. Anyway, his National Endangered Species Day, 0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:42.600 So celebrate that. 0:05:42.839 --> 0:05:44.680 Thank god one owl saved so far. 0:05:45.040 --> 0:05:49.120 Yes, that owl was strutting like Vince McMahon back in 0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:51.279 the day walking into the ring in professional wrestling. 0:05:51.320 --> 0:05:53.360 He was doing the pads frame for me. I'm gonna 0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:56.479 on some cars down there right now. Look at me, 0:05:56.920 --> 0:06:01.400 Look at me, Look at that gray Dodge. I'm gonna 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:02.200 poop good on that. 0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:02.800 Yeah. 0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:08.080 Do the animal people, the wild bobcats and whatnot, do 0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:10.400 not understand that that's just for them. They just you know, 0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:10.880 they could. 0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:12.600 Ben shut up. There should be at least a dozen 0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:13.680 of these in LA right now. 0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:16.600 Okay, I know there you go. Wonderful. I like they've 0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:20.440 been closing that road to build it multiple times. But 0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:22.480 they do it at night. You know, nobody's up at night. 0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:23.440 That's right. 0:06:23.480 --> 0:06:25.560 There are people up at night. That's right, There are 0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:26.520 people up at night. 0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:29.040 This isn't not the number one station anymore. 0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:32.800 Is it? Go figure? Today is National Bike to Work Day. 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:34.520 Will you be biking. Well, I guess you're in Oregon, 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:35.440 so you don't have to worry. Oode. 0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:37.480 I saw a lot of bikes on the drive here. 0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:41.680 We drove from Portland to Eugene here very early this morning, 0:06:41.960 --> 0:06:45.400 and there is a lot of bike traffic. Yeah, all right, 0:06:45.480 --> 0:06:47.200 Well a lot of granola crunchers here. 0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:50.040 Have they gone? Like in Boston, they've gotten rid of 0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:52.280 some roads. Last time I was in Boston and they 0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:55.560 made them bike trails because you know, that's really it 0:06:55.600 --> 0:06:59.520 doesn't get nasty weather in Boston seven months out of 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:01.560 the year, right, or you don't can't really use the 0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:03.680 outdoor bike anyway. I don't get carried away on that. 0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:06.520 But this is get to the point place, all right. 0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:10.720 Yeah, this is the show that ESPN actually made a 0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:15.160 bid on for exclusive rights. Yeah, and Fox Sports said no, no, no, no, 0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:19.480 Ben Maller is ours, that is correct, and had to 0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:21.480 put their head down and kick a can and go 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:23.080 back to the drawing board. 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:25.800 Yeah. We had we had NBC. You know, I do 0:07:25.840 --> 0:07:28.320 a little TV for NBC. We had did last year. 0:07:28.360 --> 0:07:32.520 We had CBS, we we had I think the Food 0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:36.600 Channel was interesting this vice while they're out of business. 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:39.120 I don't think they're around anymore. But what else do 0:07:39.240 --> 0:07:42.280 we I think it was nickelodeon, HG TV thought, you know, 0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:44.960 love it or listed they could do that. But this 0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:47.920 is it. This is it. I saw it on Offer Up. 0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:54.800 This is this is an amazing podcast. We've never done 0:07:54.800 --> 0:07:56.520 this before, by the way, Danny, We've never done in 0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:59.440 a special postgame show for a malard, meat greed or 0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:01.119 a mallor of that just does not happen. 0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:03.680 No, I've never typed this title twelve times. 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:07.240 No, not at all. But we had a full week 0:08:07.280 --> 0:08:08.960 we didn't do it. You know what, people were upset. 0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:11.160 I saw Terry in England. I saw his comments and 0:08:11.240 --> 0:08:14.480 other people were upset. They thought that we were acting 0:08:14.560 --> 0:08:16.880 or something. There was no acting going on. I can't act. 0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:19.160 I don't know about you, Dad, I'm not a good. 0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:21.400 Act I mean, you're really not a good actor. And 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:23.640 the fact you were in a garage and you said 0:08:23.760 --> 0:08:26.280 I'm in a garage, that was the best part. There's 0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:28.320 no acting when you're like, look, I'm in a fucking 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:29.920 garage right now. 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:35.000 I should have taken a photo of the recording of 0:08:35.040 --> 0:08:36.440 the podcast last week. 0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:40.320 Just how sweaty I yeah, I saw it, Okay, on 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:43.440 my Mom, who's still alive, on her life. Ben was 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:47.680 sitting inside a garage broadcasting last weekend. Yeah, that's how 0:08:47.720 --> 0:08:49.520 dedicated he is to you, the listener. 0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:52.400 I was in a car in a garage with the 0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:56.240 windows up, and my shirt was soaking. It was humid. 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:59.360 That was you know, humid southern weather, although it got 0:08:59.360 --> 0:09:01.920 better as the wee a weekend continued. 0:09:01.960 --> 0:09:03.400 But I don't know if you know this. That's how 0:09:03.440 --> 0:09:07.600 some people end their lives. I yes, that's a good point. Yes, 0:09:07.679 --> 0:09:10.000 I don't look they looked like you were doing that, 0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:11.520 but you were broadcasting and stiff. 0:09:11.520 --> 0:09:13.160 I did not have the car on though. I think 0:09:13.440 --> 0:09:16.040 to meet your demise there you have to have I 0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:19.440 don't know anyway, So this is a global exclusive, as 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:22.760 as Danny referenced, and nobody else has this, none of 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:25.280 the other networks. They all wanted it. Everyone wanted a 0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:28.280 piece of this. Nobody got it, and even our colleagues here. 0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:32.080 Colin Cowherd was so upset he had he had an 0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:35.440 extra cocktail after his show. He was very upset. Dan 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:39.559 Patrick had a hissy fit, and even Rob Parker, who 0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:43.880 Rob Parker, He was upset, and then he watched the 0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:46.640 Darryl Strawberry Highlights and everything's good. But I love I 0:09:46.720 --> 0:09:48.360 kid because I care. As Chris Meyers used. 0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:50.920 To stay by the way, we were teasing Rob so 0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:53.920 bad the other day because his take, I don't know, 0:09:54.000 --> 0:09:56.880 maybe a month or two ago, was Caitlin Clark's too 0:09:56.920 --> 0:10:00.400 good for the w NBA. She should go to the NBA. 0:10:00.679 --> 0:10:04.360 And now after her debut for the Fever, his whole 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:07.120 take on the air was this is garbage. She's not 0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:10.680 the prayer they've been looking for to turn the league around. 0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:17.560 She's dead upon arrival. Well, Rob, he had to pivot, 0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:21.480 you know. Sometimes I was a premature hot take Clark. 0:10:21.520 --> 0:10:24.480 And then when we reminded him of his old take 0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:26.640 in the hallway, he's like, that was a take on 0:10:26.679 --> 0:10:28.079 a different day. 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:35.880 An I'm gonna be straight with you, no lie, no bs. Yeah. 0:10:35.920 --> 0:10:39.000 And did you see my favorite Kitlin Clark story this week? 0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:41.760 And I think we mentioned it last night on the 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:45.120 Overnight Show is the secondary market. A bunch of these 0:10:45.120 --> 0:10:49.600 ticket brokers bought up the tickets for Kaitlin Clark's home debut, 0:10:50.160 --> 0:10:53.200 So they bought a bunch of tickets thinking they could 0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:56.400 resell these at a tremendous inflation. You know they could 0:10:56.840 --> 0:11:00.400 mark it up and price gouge people. Well, some of 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:03.120 the tickets on the secondary market are going for with 0:11:03.320 --> 0:11:08.720 fees less than ten dollars for Caitlin Clark's home home debuts, 0:11:08.800 --> 0:11:11.040 So not a great investment. I did get a Rob 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:18.080 Parker take endorsement. Sell the alarm. Rob and we and 0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:19.960 Rob have a good really, we get along. Well, we 0:11:20.000 --> 0:11:21.719 don't talk all that often because I don't see Rob. 0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:24.120 He works a different shift than I do, and every 0:11:24.120 --> 0:11:26.000 once in a while we'll send a text, and he 0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:31.480 sent me text Take approval, Take approval from Rob Parker. 0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:34.719 I had a take, the one where you gave the 0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:37.600 Lakers credit for facing the Nuggets head on. 0:11:38.000 --> 0:11:39.599 No, he ripped me for that. He said, that's a 0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:42.600 bad job. I says, I'm gone soft. I'm going soft Rob. 0:11:42.960 --> 0:11:45.160 But no, he credited me because I had. You know, 0:11:45.200 --> 0:11:48.120 he's a New Yorker and I had a great Knickerbocker 0:11:48.200 --> 0:11:51.840 take that I pointed out. Jalen Brunson is everything that 0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:54.640 Carmelo Anthony was supposed to be, but he's actually it, 0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:57.480 like all the hyper Carmelo Anthony and I did this 0:11:57.520 --> 0:11:59.400 whole rant about when he showed up with the Knicks, 0:11:59.559 --> 0:12:01.760 it was like a ticker tape parade and all that stuff, 0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:06.360 and he just was overrated. But Jalen Brunson was underrated. Yeah, 0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:08.200 I didn't believe in him. I didn't think he would 0:12:08.240 --> 0:12:09.640 be this good. I thought it was a fluke what 0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:11.960 he did with the Mavericks when when Luca got hurt 0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:14.920 and he played well. But Jalen Brunson has been great, 0:12:15.160 --> 0:12:19.520 and so you take that, Carmelo Rob Parker approved my take. 0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:22.240 Yeah, did you hear that Mark Cuban is actually up 0:12:22.280 --> 0:12:24.240 for New York Knicks Executive of the Year. 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:27.120 Yes, he's done more to help the Knicks than he 0:12:27.160 --> 0:12:29.320 has the Mavericks recently. But I know the Mavericks are 0:12:29.320 --> 0:12:31.360 still alive. What are you talking about? All right? Anyway, 0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:34.760 this is the official postgame show Mallar Meet and Greet 0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:38.680 twenty twenty four below the Mason Dixon Line the Southern. 0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:40.600 Because I saw some pictures, but I didn't hear it 0:12:40.640 --> 0:12:42.199 from the horse's mouth, which is you. 0:12:44.920 --> 0:12:48.560 Yeah, I'm gonna put a bunch of photos up this afternoon. 0:12:49.040 --> 0:12:51.160 So I know most of you listened to this based 0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:54.439 on the data, Yeah, you listened to this early in 0:12:54.440 --> 0:12:56.480 the day, but I'll put up later in the day 0:12:56.800 --> 0:12:59.480 a bunch of photos. The boys have been great. They 0:12:59.520 --> 0:13:03.040 sent me some photo I didn't get enough photos. I 0:13:03.120 --> 0:13:06.240 was busy, you know, talking, but I'm still riding high. 0:13:06.240 --> 0:13:08.800 I gotta tell these events. I always say these are 0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:14.440 double edged swords because for me, Danny, I'm an introvert. 0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:18.240 I'm a big introvert. It's very difficult to transform into 0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:22.120 a social butterfly. I talked for four hours a day, 0:13:22.200 --> 0:13:24.320 and then on the weekends we do the podcast, and 0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:25.960 the rest of the time, I don't really say much. 0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:28.360 I'm pretty quiet, you know, I keep to myself. I 0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:31.440 don't I don't say much. I especially do not enjoy 0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:35.520 awkward conversation small talk. I don't like that. 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:40.720 Yeah, you're no Rich Davis. Yes. During commercial breaks, he 0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:44.040 does his own radio show in the hallway with editors 0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:46.440 and other people wandering around our building. 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:50.520 Yeah. Yeah, I'm the opposite. I'm like, I'm saving it 0:13:50.559 --> 0:13:52.400 for the air. You know, we we would talk about 0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:54.559 that when I worked with you, Danny on the overnight show. 0:13:54.559 --> 0:13:55.960 We'd be like, all right, let's not do that off there. 0:13:55.960 --> 0:13:56.560 We gotta save that. 0:13:57.720 --> 0:13:59.760 It's one of the main things we always said up 0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:00.840 for on air. 0:14:01.240 --> 0:14:04.400 Yeah, so I save everything for on here. I don't know, 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:08.000 there's nothing left. My holster is empty anyway. So for 0:14:08.040 --> 0:14:10.200 me as an introvert, it's very difficult and all that stuff. 0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:12.559 But the cool part this has a double sort. The 0:14:12.559 --> 0:14:15.880 cool part these mal ad meet and greets are like 0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:19.480 religious revivals of sorts, because there are times doing the 0:14:19.520 --> 0:14:23.280 overnight show that you get a little depressed that the 0:14:23.280 --> 0:14:25.600 only people you're talking to or are not doing very 0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:28.840 well in the game of life. You know, the doing well, 0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:32.720 they got issues. There's a lot of alcohol consumption, a 0:14:32.760 --> 0:14:36.880 lot of pharmaceuticals or whatever, and the people on the edge. 0:14:37.120 --> 0:14:39.720 So you're saying, weed man, hippie is a very good 0:14:39.760 --> 0:14:41.480 case study of your average listener. 0:14:43.000 --> 0:14:47.040 Yeah, I'm just saying. So. This is confirmation though that 0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:50.080 we do have, even in the overnight some really cool 0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:55.320 people who are in air quotes, normal who listen to 0:14:55.440 --> 0:14:58.320 the content that we provide. And the third shift worker. 0:14:58.400 --> 0:15:02.360 Now a lot of these guys have become pod listeners. 0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:05.200 They used to listen overnight and now they're podcast listeners, 0:15:05.560 --> 0:15:09.400 which is kind of cool. That's that's pretty neat. And 0:15:09.640 --> 0:15:11.040 as far as how many people show up. You know, 0:15:11.480 --> 0:15:14.080 I don't want to embellish Danny. I believe in truth 0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:16.800 and broadcasting. I would say it's kind of like it 0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:18.880 was kind of like a Taylor Swift concert. Maybe forty 0:15:18.880 --> 0:15:22.560 sixty thousand people. But attendance is just it's just a number. 0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:25.560 Who are you Wade Bogs now, it's one hundred and 0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:26.840 seven beers that you draft. 0:15:27.200 --> 0:15:30.200 You know, you have lies, damn lies, and you have statistics, 0:15:30.200 --> 0:15:32.760 and so I didn't do account We didn't sell tickets 0:15:32.760 --> 0:15:34.880 to this. People showed up. There were people that showed 0:15:34.920 --> 0:15:36.480 up and left. There were people that stayed. There were 0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:38.520 people that showed up. As I was leaving, as I 0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:40.760 was walking out of the parking lot, I ran into somebody. 0:15:40.920 --> 0:15:44.800 But it's wonderful. It was really cool to meet everyone. 0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:48.040 And what you did by going to that event, you 0:15:48.160 --> 0:15:51.080 did something that is more valuable than money. You gave 0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:53.520 up the thing that you can't get with money, and 0:15:53.560 --> 0:15:56.520 that's time. And I appreciate. There were people that traveled 0:15:56.520 --> 0:16:00.440 from very far away, some even getting on play to 0:16:00.520 --> 0:16:03.400 fly in to Charleston to hang out. Was I again 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:06.960 want to thank Dale, great guy. It was good to 0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:10.000 hang out with him and he explained to me that 0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:14.560 not only has Dale move from southern California to the 0:16:14.680 --> 0:16:18.080 state of South Carolina, but he's gotten like I forget, 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:22.040 how many like ten fifteen other people to move as well, 0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:24.480 so they've got a whole community. Like all his friends 0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:27.160 and family, I guess he didn't get in a great detail, 0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:30.840 but they all live in that area, so it was 0:16:30.840 --> 0:16:33.520 great to meet him. I also met the older of 0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:37.120 my father's mustache, the place that you ripped on the. 0:16:37.120 --> 0:16:42.040 Air day, and he was very kind. Oh my mother's sideburns. Now, 0:16:42.280 --> 0:16:45.000 did he have a mustache in alongsideburns? 0:16:46.320 --> 0:16:50.720 No? No, he was a guy that was enjoying life. 0:16:51.240 --> 0:16:54.280 You're a little older than me, but nice bar. Highly 0:16:54.320 --> 0:16:57.040 recommend if you're in Charleston going there. I was a 0:16:57.040 --> 0:16:59.360 little concerned when I showed up because it was in 0:17:00.400 --> 0:17:02.840 like a like a mall, not a mall, like a 0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:07.719 shopping center thing with a grocery store, and there was 0:17:07.840 --> 0:17:12.120 like a pharmacy and there was a biscuit restaurant on 0:17:12.119 --> 0:17:15.080 one side. So I was like, there's a tea shop 0:17:15.359 --> 0:17:18.679 coffee shop, like a bougie coffee shop next to us. 0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:19.879 I was a little concerned by that. I was like 0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:21.639 Oh boy, what am I get myself into? But I 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:25.160 walked in. It looked good. At a nice old school bar. 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:29.479 They had a cool brick fireplace on one side. They 0:17:29.520 --> 0:17:31.600 had tables to eat at. It's not just a bar. 0:17:31.680 --> 0:17:33.800 There was a restaurant as well. But we ended up 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:35.720 having My math was a little off on the Overnight Show. 0:17:35.760 --> 0:17:38.880 I did the math. I recounted because we believe in recounts, Danny, 0:17:39.480 --> 0:17:45.600 and we had seven listen are from seven states that 0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:48.959 that showed up by my math here seven heaven, Danny, 0:17:49.720 --> 0:17:53.240 that's pretty good, right, seven states that made the Pilgrim. 0:17:53.119 --> 0:17:55.080 Or in that part of the country, states are a 0:17:55.119 --> 0:17:58.040 little closer together. That's still really good though, well. 0:17:58.000 --> 0:18:02.680 Yeah it is. But we had Virgilvirginia, North Carolina, obviously 0:18:02.720 --> 0:18:07.240 South Carolina, Tennessee but that every count. Then several boys 0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:14.159 from Tennessee, Georgia, Georgia, and we had Florida as well 0:18:14.359 --> 0:18:20.040 and Michigan. Oh nice. Yeah, a guy named Ken. Now 0:18:20.080 --> 0:18:22.520 technically he spends half a year in Florida, but he 0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:25.880 planned his trip back up to Michigan and made sure 0:18:25.920 --> 0:18:30.360 to stop at the the bar there. Kid was there, 0:18:30.359 --> 0:18:33.359 but he was heading back to Michigan. How about Dominican 0:18:33.480 --> 0:18:37.120 Mike flew up for the day from Tampa. That's kind 0:18:37.119 --> 0:18:40.120 of cool, right, That was neat to meet Dominican Mike. 0:18:40.440 --> 0:18:44.119 And he's called the show for years. That was that 0:18:44.240 --> 0:18:48.119 was pretty pretty special. House, really cool. Tommy from Atlanta. 0:18:48.320 --> 0:18:50.679 Tommy's a cool guy at a bravesat on. I forgave 0:18:50.760 --> 0:18:53.480 him and he's he's like me. He's a big introvert. 0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:56.280 But he drives a truck and he used to call 0:18:56.320 --> 0:18:58.040 the show. But the people he works where he works 0:18:58.080 --> 0:19:00.960 for a grocery store company in Atlanta, and they put 0:19:00.960 --> 0:19:03.560 the kebash on that they're they're they're not allowed to 0:19:03.560 --> 0:19:06.240 be on your cell phone when you're driving around delivering 0:19:06.280 --> 0:19:08.959 the groceries. So he's unable to call the show anymore, 0:19:08.960 --> 0:19:10.840 but he listens all the time and he's a big fan. 0:19:10.920 --> 0:19:13.879 Shirly Scott from I think he's from Virginia. I believe 0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:17.920 he was there, Mike. And if I get any of 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:20.280 these names wrong, you can you can kick me in 0:19:20.280 --> 0:19:22.640 the nuts and and email me and tell me I'm 0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:25.480 a schmuck. I believe his name is Mike's the guy. 0:19:25.520 --> 0:19:29.560 He has wife with him. He gave us Citadel hats 0:19:30.200 --> 0:19:32.320 the Citadels in the Charleston area. 0:19:32.680 --> 0:19:33.320 I remember that. 0:19:33.760 --> 0:19:36.360 Yeah, he gave us the Citadel hats, and he remembered 0:19:36.359 --> 0:19:38.600 that Cooper Loop ripped it because he didn't want the 0:19:39.200 --> 0:19:43.360 Citadel hat. Dale gave us. Gave me a Hatop. 0:19:42.840 --> 0:19:44.720 Only wears shit colored Broncos hats. 0:19:47.800 --> 0:19:49.639
