53
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 1: Save some of this from when Ben finally cooks his

54
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 1: freezer burnt tomahawk, and of course when King Newsome gets

55
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: booted out. Sorry it took so long. Work in vacation

56
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,640
Speaker 1: with the family, got Tokyo Sydney tele Avision coming up.

57
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 1: I'm a pilot. We'll give you an email report. So

58
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: we're looking forward to that. I believe we are locked

59
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 1: down in all rooms now. We did have freedom in Japan,

60
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: but with the Olympics, I think just one away or

61
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 1: just a few months away. Sydney has always been a prison,

62
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: bunch of assholes. Tel Aviv shall be interesting. Take care,

63
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: I'm a pilot, Yes, sir, he did. He did. He

64
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: send me some some Texas style whiskey. And it's dark.

65
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: So the darker it is, the heavier the hangover will be. Well,

66
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: I hope you enjoyed. But he sent me that really

67
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: cool looking m hat you know, the minor league team

68
00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: from Montgomery Biscuits. Yeah, yeah, so that that had will last,

69
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: you know, many years. I'll get to wear that hat,

70
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: you know, occasionally, for for many many years. That but

71
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: once you drink that alcohol, it's gone. It's over, I know,

72
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: but it's seems it's the opportunity to cherish that with

73
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: a burnt tomahawk steak again. Once you cook that tomahawk

74
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 1: steak the way it needs to be, it's not a past.

75
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 1: So you're not gonna put it in a frame. Not no, no, no,

76
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 1: to love the Mallard Louve. I will document everything like

77
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: we're at the Louve. Absolutely all right, I'm glad I'm

78
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: a pilot. Still right, have an email. I haven't got

79
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: an email from I'm a pilot in a while. I

80
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: wondered what he was up to. Still traveling the world,

81
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 1: John in northern Colorado. Right, So he says, Ben, do

82
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: you drive out of your way to buy cheaper gas

83
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: or do you pay whatever the most convenient station is charging?

84
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: Not what I do, John. I am a Costco member,

85
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: so I I go to Costco to get my guest.

86
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: But Costco's gas is usually pack so my move, I

87
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: will go right when they open. The gas station near

88
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 1: me opens at five thirty in the morning, and I

89
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: will get there at five and I will go in

90
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 1: and out and no problem, and I'll get the because

91
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: Costco is always twenty the thirty cents cheaper than any

92
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: of the gas stations. So I always go to Costco

93
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: and get gas. And now occasionally when I'm out and

94
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: about and I'm not near a Costco or Costco is closed,

95
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 1: like on the weekends, they're not open very long, so

96
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: I'll I'll then have to suck it up and get gouged,

97
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 1: but I will refuse. I'd rather run out of gas.

98
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 1: Like sometimes there's parts of of l A and there's

99
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: and New York is the worst of this, but but

100
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: there's there's places where the gas is like they like

101
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: five fifty six dollars a gallon. You know, they just

102
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: they don't want you to buy it. I would rather

103
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 1: run out of gas on principle than spend five fifty

104
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: for a gallon of gas, So screw them. Yeah. Usually

105
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 1: next to the airports, of course, or or the rental

106
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 1: car Yeah, the rental car places. They always jack up

107
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: the price right around there. You're gonna be in a

108
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: delicate spot once you moved the Mallar Mansion. I'll be

109
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 1: curious to see, like where you pin your gas locations

110
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,599
Speaker 1: for pick up? Yeah, I don't know. I mean maybe

111
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: we won't move the Mallar Mansion. You never know. No idea.

112
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: Barry in Music City Rights and he says, yo yo

113
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: mob Bennie, how long have you and Eddie worked together?

114
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: And would you to be the longest tenure duo at

115
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 1: fs ARE. Uh, Well, we me and Eddie worked together

116
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: at different times on the weekends and the early days.

117
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 1: We were paired together and Eddie went and did some

118
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: other stuff. I did other stuff, and then we've been

119
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: together on this version of The Overnight Show since. But

120
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: we had worked together off and on, and yeah, it's

121
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: really a technicality, Berry, because I've been at the network

122
00:06:55,640 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: since two thousand which is a long time. But I

123
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 1: was whacked. I was giving a pink slip January nine,

124
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: had a six month, twenty six day break from from radio.

125
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: Was let go, and then they brought me back. After

126
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 1: that point, Eddie started, I think a couple of years

127
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: after that, or at least a year after that, and

128
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: then uh he uh, he's been straight through. He didn't

129
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 1: he didn't get he didn't get the guillotine like I got.

130
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: So uh so it's really but but you know, six

131
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: months and twenty so I think I'm still a few

132
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: months ahead, at least a few months ahead of Eddie

133
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: in the overall employment. But you'd have to contact HR.

134
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: But but but yeah, as far as the people that

135
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: work at the network, yeah, there's nobody. They're all going.

136
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: Everyone's gone. I mean I know people all over the

137
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: place that used to work at the network that are

138
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: not there. I mean, just complete, complete turnover. There's like,

139
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: there's a guy in the imaging department, Chris Lindsley, who's

140
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: been there longer than me, but he's he's behind the scene,

141
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: secret guy. But he's the only one. Every everyone else's yeah,

142
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: come in late Chris, and Iowa says, can you give

143
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: us a mini monologue on the Tuck Rule game. Keep

144
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: in mind that Brady had both hands on the ball

145
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: when he was hit, thereby re establishing himself as a

146
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: ball carrier, not a thrower. Awesome. The original call was fumble.

147
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: See the picture he posted a picture here, I says, ps,

148
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:32,559
Speaker 1: it's all I have left as a Raider fan. Uh yeah,

149
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 1: christ No, I was actually on the night of the

150
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: Tuck Rule game, and so I did a monologue then.

151
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 1: So I'm not going to recreate the monologue, but I

152
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 1: do recall the radio call from Gregg Poppa, who was

153
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: assuming that the Raiders were going to the Super Bowl,

154
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 1: right they had won the game and it didn't work out.

155
00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 1: Let's see your Kyrie in Okay. See says hey, big Ben,

156
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 1: why does Cooper Loop get so butt hurt when you

157
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 1: tell the truth about those bums, the Fakers. I hate

158
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: the Lakers more than any team in all of sports.

159
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: That's one of the reasons why I love you, Big Ben.

160
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 1: You let those historians know the truth. That's right. Uh.

161
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 1: Email continues, I don't care who wins the championship. As

162
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 1: long as the Fakers don't, then I feel like my

163
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: team won. He says. He says, f the Lakers a

164
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: rhythmic chance style, just like you like it. There you go,

165
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 1: that's the great Kyrie, one of my my big supports. Well,

166
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 1: thank you, Kyrie. I'm right there with you. Well, there's

167
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 1: a Cooper loop and in Roberto, but Coop's worse than this.

168
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 1: They think they're just better because they like the Lakers,

169
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: you know, and they they support the Lakers, so they're

170
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: better people. And it's just bullshit. But this is the

171
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 1: mindset you gotta deal with. These people have ne roses,

172
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 1: these Laker historians, and it is great. It's great for life,

173
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: it's great for human nity, it's great for the sporting world.

174
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,559
Speaker 1: When the Lakers take it in the chin, it's just better.

175
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 1: Sports are just better when the Lakers lose. It's just

176
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 1: more fun. Life is better, you feel, you feel good,

177
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: you look better. That's just the way it is. Right.

178
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: They're bad. They're just bad people. They are clearly all right.

179
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: This one's from Jose in Massachusetts. He says, Hey, Lord Ben,

Speaker 1: Brown on the podcast, he did not get back to it.

185
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: Kwammie Brown not interested in the past. I guess Kwami

186
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: is at the point now where he's becoming a big

187
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 1: internet star all of a sudden, so he doesn't need

188

216
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 1: as a contributor to the show and podcast. Now, I

217
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,960

218
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 1: this love fest between you and Pierre, Um, were you

219

00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: for him? Now, I was sitting right here in this

221
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,679
Speaker 1: chair in the studio, and I watched. But in to this,

222

225
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:17,119
Speaker 1: what we're doing, and they help drive the content and segments.

226
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 1: They will give us something to talk about and lo

227
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: and behold, we've done a great segment of radio in

Speaker 1: bar pretty high the past few months. Great podcast. Your

239
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 1: Friday guests have been informative. Your Saturday topics and Sunday

240
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 1: mail bags have been very entertaining by this is pretty good.

241

Speaker 1: This is buttering the biscuits. It's good here. Good job

242
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 1: by you. I think you missed the spot, Kevin. He says,

243
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 1: do you ever feel pressure to keep the content so good?

244
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: Or do you just ride the wave each week and

245
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: go with the flow keep up the good uh work?

246
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: Uh well, Kevin, I believe in the one step at

247
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 1: a time philosophy. And I don't know, but I don't

248
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: like you think I'm worried about next week's podcast, I'm not.

249
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: I'll I've got the radio show to worry about during

250
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 1: the week. So usually a day or two before the podcast,

251
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: I'll be like, okay, we gotta get you know what

252
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: were gonna do here? But it's really dependent. It's a uh,

253
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 1: what's the word I'm going It depends on what's going on,

254
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 1: Like there's gotta be something that you can't plan too

255
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 1: far and ahead too far ahead, like I there's sometimes

256
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: we'll have people on that wrote books, like we had

257
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: Dave Parker on that was booked way in advance, and

258
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: there's some other people that have actually I've talked to

259
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: about booking that we we might might put on here

260
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 1: in the future that we have to book in advance.

261
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: But for the most part, it's you who can we

262
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: get on what would be interesting, who's in the news,

263
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: what something like that. But we usually do that like

264
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 1: just a couple of days before the podcast, and I

265
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 1: think personally, for me, I don't I don't feel pressure.

266
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 1: I just look for the most vulnaible situation to try

267
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: to put you in with the guests. Yeah, but you

268
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: do as you said, let me do a cost benefit analysis.

269
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: How can I have malleus the most fans standard. There's

270
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: like a boiler plate email the Ben. I've been listening

271
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 1: to you for blank for blank years. I've always enjoyed

272
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: your show and found it entertaining, but it's for the

273
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 1: button there. But I can no longer gonna listen to

274
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: you because you said blank and you had blank on

275
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 1: your podcast, and I politically don't agree with you, so

276
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 1: screw you. Yeah, that's pretty much how those emails go.

277
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 1: Thank you for that. Like we had doctor sat on

278
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 1: you know, very good. I thought he was great from

279
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: Montreal and informative and you know, straight shooter and all that,

280
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 1: and the same emails popped up you know, Johnny on

281
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 1: the spot. They're showing up saying I don't want I

282
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 1: liked you for so long, but yeah, you really got

283
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 1: those from him. Yeah that is unbelievable. Well, you know

284
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 1: what it is because he pops up on Fox News

285
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: and so people. I'm convinced these people like the Biden crowd,

286
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: they like watch Fox News and whoever's on. They're like, oh,

00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 1: United States. I know, I don't know, and it doesn't matter,

291
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Listen the local Rodi I was getting crap

292
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 1: because I said that Naomi Osaka I did a couple

293
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 1: of monologues. I said, well, listen, if she doesn't want

294
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,120
Speaker 1: to it, doesn't want to talk to the media, let

295
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,919
Speaker 1: her go get her therapy and that's it and she

296
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 1: can't play. And then the next day she she did

297
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 1: leave the French open because she was didn't want to

298
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 1: talk to the media, and uh, I was getting nasty

299
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 1: messages from people that I can't believe you were so

300
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 1: insensitive and somebody should hold you accountable for what use

301
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: for an opinion I should be held accountable for an

302
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: opinion that somebody should do their job right, that the

303
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,719
Speaker 1: job part of being a professional athlete and tennis players

304
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: to talk to the media is not exactly torture. The

305
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:50,679
Speaker 1: media is fluff, fluff, fluff, fluff, fluff, fluff, and the

306
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,439
Speaker 1: media has gone softer and softer and softer and softer

307
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 1: and softer and all this, and so listen, I get it.

308
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,400
Speaker 1: She doesn't like to talk. She's an introvert. I'm an introvert.

309
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,159
Speaker 1: But you still got to do things you don't like

310
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: to do. There's still things in life you have to do.

311
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 1: And the problem is it's it's Pandora's box because once

312
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: you allow that, you know it's the given an in

313
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,920
Speaker 1: She'll take a mild philosophy. They'll be like, Okay, I'm

314
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: not doing this because I mental health. You know, I

315
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,679
Speaker 1: feel anxiety. There's a lot of things in life that

316
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: you're gonna feel anxiety. That doesn't mean that you should

317
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 1: be allowed to not do them. Yeah, yeah, And that's

318
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 1: to me, that's the the issue that people are like, oh, okay,

319
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 1: I can't can't do that because you know I might

320
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 1: feel uncomfortable or whatever. It's like, come on, there's there's

321
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 1: a special amount of mental capacity that you want has

322
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: to have to be an athlete, let alone a professional athlete. Yeah,

323
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: and and there's gonna be things, you know if you

324
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 1: know what I do. But like my point was, if

325
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:49,159
Speaker 1: she doesn't want to talk to media, she can be

326
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:53,919
Speaker 1: a douche and be like Marshawn Lynch and uh, you know,

327
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 1: both teams played hard by man. You know that's trying

328
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 1: to bring my a game. You know. Go through sports

329
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: cliche dot com, which I contributed two back in the day.

330
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: My name is there at the bottoms of the contributors

331
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 1: and you can you can use that as your your

332
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 1: sounding board. Just use those cliches, hop on that bandwagon.

333
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 1: You don't do your thing there. Why don't you respond

334
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: to those emailers now and say, you know what, I

335
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,879
Speaker 1: can't respond to this email like i'd like to because

336
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: I have some some mental issues right now. I'm going

337
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: through some well the soccer craters said, well, listen, I'm

338
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,640
Speaker 1: triggered by this. I need therapy now. Your email hurt

339
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 1: my feelings. You know. The trick is that what you

340
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 1: should do is you should actually screenshot those emails, blackout

341
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,919
Speaker 1: your email address, and then posted on social media, so

354
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 1: any meny money mo. David from Parts Unknown says he

355
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: can fix baseball. Just stick to the freaking rules of

356
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:26,199
Speaker 1: the game. It's just fine, nine pitches to start and

357
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 1: only eight every half inning after that. Otherwise provide box

358
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:35,199
Speaker 1: springs and mattresses the odd lazy boy it would be

359
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 1: good too. So he wants a limit of eight pitches

360
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 1: per half any that'd be interesting, So you don't have

361
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,439
Speaker 1: to walk anymore, you have to swing. What if the

362
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 1: pitch is out of the strikes and you still gotta swinky?

363
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,880
Speaker 1: I guess so, I guess you do that. Yeah. Jason

364
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 1: from Rocky Mountain, Virginia says, have either of you been

365
00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 1: on a cruise ship before? If not, your boy Rob

366
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: Parker commended the Golden Girls cruise. Your thoughts. I've never

367
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: been on a cruise. I have thought about it, but

368
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:12,880
Speaker 1: I understand the accommodations are not for someone of my height,

369
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: so it would be problematic. And uh, it would be

370
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: kind of cool. I heard they're really good deals that

371
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 1: you can eat all the food you could possibly want,

372
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 1: and they've got all the great accommodations and and all that.

373
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 1: I've not been on a cruise ship. Yeah, I've been

374
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: on a cruise. I wanted a couple of them, but

375
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 1: I took a cruise. Mm hmmm. Twelve years ago, went

376
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 1: down to Cabo for a wedding. The wedding took place

377
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 1: prior to leaving the dock, and then obviously didn't get

378
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 1: married in international waters. They did not know. Part of

379
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,679
Speaker 1: it's because not everyone that was attending the wedding was

380
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 1: actually going on the cruise. So we embarked I think

381
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 1: later in the afternoon, but the wedding was in the

382
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 1: middle of the day, and uh yeah, it was pretty fun.

383
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: Although I don't know, I'm not a huge fan of

384
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 1: going to Mexico. But what's wrong with Mexican sucks? Yeah,

385
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: you know, like the what do you not like the water?

386
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 1: You can't drink the water. You can't drink the water.

387
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: I got food poisoning down there. Well that's mono zumas

388
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 1: were range, okay, law enforcements, trash, Oh yeah, federalities, federalities.

389
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 1: You want to go down the wrong street because the

390
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 1: cartels will get you. They'll do you in on that.

391
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: It's just disappointed, man, because there are certain parts of

392
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 1: Mexico that look gorgeous. Cobble was nice. I have family

393
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: in Guadalajara, and I fucking love Mexican food. Yeah, we

394
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: like American Mexican food. No, no, no, no, I mean

395
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 1: half my family's Mexican. That doesn't mean I think that

396
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: means like the food in Mexico is different than the

397
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,880
Speaker 1: food in l A or whatever. You know, It's like

398
00:22:56,040 --> 00:23:00,400
Speaker 1: it's a different, different animal. I don't know. My mom

399
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:05,520
Speaker 1: my aunt used to make those homemade tamales. Yeah, fun man,

400
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: Look one of my favorites. The nostalgia flashes back to

401
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: your child. I know, well, it could say the same

402
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,119
Speaker 1: thing about matsa ball soup. Come would make it, and

403
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,320
Speaker 1: I did, and it was great back when I was

404
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 1: But anything to eat when you're when you're a kid,

405
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 1: you like flashback to that age. But if you had

406
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,159
Speaker 1: days right, I mean, I obviously, I know it's a

407
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: little bit different down to l A, but you'd have

408
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 1: days right where you'd go to like the local taco

409
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:35,640
Speaker 1: trucks and you get the street tacos. Oh. I could

410
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 1: eat Mexican food every day the rest of my life

411
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: and be content and not anything else. I love Mexican food,

412
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: but I like that my my buddies, my Mexican buddies

413
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 1: would be like you like the green govers, like the

414
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,200
Speaker 1: crunchy tacos, so they'd bust my balls green got tacos.

415
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 1: They'd call it. My buddy. Alex used to give me

416
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 1: a hard time about that. Roberto says, there's a good

417
00:23:54,640 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 1: spot in North Hollywood that sells some excellent street tacos. Yeah, yeah,

418
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:01,959
Speaker 1: he was saying that, But yeah, I mean, this is

419
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 1: the this is the mecca of the taco Yeah, l A.

420
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: It's you know, I mean so so many people here

421
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 1: from Mexico. It's uh, they brought their local delicacy. It's

422
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: just up the road. Great. Which is bullshit, because why

423
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 1: can't we get good pizza out here like Chicago, New York.

424
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 1: I mean you can, and there's a few good piece

425
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 1: of place, it's not very many the Chicago I told

426
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 1: you a couple of years ago I had I had

427
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,399
Speaker 1: not eaten Chicago style pizza. I didn't really think it

428
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: would be my thing. Because the tomato sauce is on top. Man,

429
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 1: is that good. There's a place in Vegas that does.

430
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: Actually there's a place in Oaks here in l A

431
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 1: that has that, but it's not I don't know, it's

432
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 1: not the same thing. Yeah, you gotta go to Rance's

433
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:48,479
Speaker 1: and Long Beach on the Uh in Belmont Shore. Yeah,

434
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 1: you have a good pie there, they do. It's a

435
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 1: really good pie. Yeah, the meat Lovers is really good.

436
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 1: The cheese is fantastic too, and uh but yeah, forty

437
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: five minutes. It's similar to what gear Donald's is. There's

438
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 1: gotta be a way you can make that at home.

439
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,360
Speaker 1: There's gotta be a way you need to You need

440
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: a certain the pot they put it in, right, it's

441
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: not really a trade. Yeah, yeah, you need that. There's

442
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 1: gotta be a way you can do that, right. I

443
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 1: don't make something similar, you know, the right amount of dough.

444
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 1: It's like dough, cheese, dough. You know that's like multiple layers. Yeah.

445
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:28,720
Speaker 1: I think if you crash and burn on it, you

446
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 1: can just flip it into a caw zone. Right, even

447
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 1: if you don't make it exactly right, How bad could

448
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,120
Speaker 1: it be. It's dough and cheese and tomatoes. It can't

449
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 1: be that bad. Yeah, it's just the whole process. I'd

450
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 1: had no idea until I had my first pie. It

451
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 1: took that long to make a Chicago style pizza. Yeah,

452
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,919
Speaker 1: I remember we went there to order. It's like, holy crap.

453
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: You know, It's like so then you have to order

454
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: the appetizers because you're waiting forty five minutes for the food,

455
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 1: so you gotta get something else. You know, you're not

456
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 1: just sitting there staring. You're you know, your yourself, each

457
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:07,680
Speaker 1: other or whatever. Uh, let's see here. Mike from Fort Wayne, Indiana, says, Ben,

458
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 1: when are you going to switch over to America's team,

459
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:16,200
Speaker 1: the Cubs. I'm good on that. I had a great

460
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: memories of going to Wrigley Field when I was doing

461
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,199
Speaker 1: stuff with the Dodgers. It was awesome to vibe at

462
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:24,359
Speaker 1: Wrigley Field. But I'm good on that. Rememberhen I was

463
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 1: a kid, we went to Chicago for a family reunion,

464
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:30,359
Speaker 1: and I did as a child, I did get a

465
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 1: few Cub memorabilia things because I thought it was cool.

466
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,199
Speaker 1: You know, I didn't was a kid. Whatever. Uh. Fred

467
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 1: from Spring Texas says, what's your favorite brand of sneaker?

468
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 1: I'm not really a sneaker head. I gravitated to Nike

469
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,439
Speaker 1: a lot because they they had big sizes and I

470
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 1: have a large foot, so I do that. But now

471
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 1: I wear you know whatever. I know, I'm just like

472
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 1: generic brand sneakers. I have a wide foot, so it's

473
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: hard to find shoes that fit properly because my my

474
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 1: foot is extremely wide. Well, what about you gassing on

475
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 1: any favorite sneaker? Um for working out, probably be under Armour,

476
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: but then just for casual attire, I think Puma's pumas

477
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,360
Speaker 1: are cheap. They're really inexpensive. It was like last year,

478
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,360
Speaker 1: two years ago. Jonas Knox had told me that Puma's

479
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: got a couple of outlets past Ventura, and the outlet

480
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 1: stores are relatively cheap, so I'd buy like a handful

481
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: of Pumas for like thirty dollars, super comfortable. They look

482
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: pretty decent, and you'll rocket I'm the same position as you.

483
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: I've I have wide feet, and uh, a lot of

484
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 1: shoes don't work because you get the wide people. I

485
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: guess the Pumas are the way to go. Yeah, girth,

486
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 1: Ben girth. That's right. Okay, keep going with that. John

487
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,159
Speaker 1: the jailer says, been my daughter got several questions wrong

488
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 1: on her math desk. She explained to the teacher that

489
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:08,480
Speaker 1: she used Mallar math. You could you please cite sources

490
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,959
Speaker 1: so I can educate her teacher. Perhaps next time she

491
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 1: should use the gascon geometry. Yeah, do you have gry?

492
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 1: Imagine if she said that Miller math, as you know,

493
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:28,119
Speaker 1: is a it's close, it's in the ballpark, it's in

494
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 1: the neighborhood, it's in the zip code, but not necessarily

495
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: right where it needs to be. Yah. Yeah, I mean

496
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 1: we've actually had someone get out of being arrested, so

497
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 1: if that's right, that's right. Yeah, the guy in the

498
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 1: parking line, you had a costco, you had a teenage

499
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 1: girl or a guy that was doing math and said,

500
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 1: I'm doing Mallar math, the greatest math of them all. Man, listen,

501
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 1: you be a math major if you could use Miler

502
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 1: math absolutely day even mill Valley, California rights And he says,

503
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 1: a man, you say you're a distant relative of Nostredamas

504
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 1: and a friend of no Stredins. How are you related

505
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 1: to No Stredamas? And who the heck is no Stredinus?

506
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 1: Well day, thank you for those questions. Uh, And it

507
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: is true. I am a distant relative of the great

508
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 1: Nostre Damas. There was a study done in that confirmed

509
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 1: that everyone on Earth is related to everyone else on

510
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 1: the planet, so that means the Trojan family. It's not

511
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 1: just a metaphor. So I am related to No stre Damas.

512
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 1: And as far as No Stredina is, No Stredinus is

513
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: a listener. He lives in the Seattle area and he

514
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 1: I met him on the mallard Man March Meet and

515
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 1: greet in twenty nineteen. He showed up there. No Stredinas,

516
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 1: that's his alias. He's incognito on Twitter. No Stredinus and

517
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 1: the good guy hates the weed man try to you know,

518
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 1: brought some little stickers to get rid of the weed

519
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 1: man and all that and uh, some different things. So yeah,

520
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 1: that's the great Nostredinus. I saw Marlin's Man the other

521
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 1: day on TV. Did I did? I forget what game

522
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 1: he was at, but yeah, ESPN had him on and

523
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 1: it looked like he was acknowledging the press box. Okay,

524
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 1: obviously behind home plate like he normally is, and he

525
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 1: was doing something in the crowd and then the press

526
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: box and they were featuring him on ESPN. Well that's cool. Yeah, yeah,

527
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 1: I I still get a bunch of messages from Marlin's Man.

528
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 1: I'm very big with the celebrity crowd. I had somebody

529
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 1: fan crowd. Marlin's Man were tight. Clipper Darryl was sending

530
00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 1: me messages the other night in the middle of the

531
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 1: show when he should have been sleeping. He couldn't sleep.

532
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 1: He was obsessed with the the Clippers situation. So he's

533
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: giving me like, you know, we were going back and

534
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: forth comparing and contrasting different things. But Marlin's Man, I

535
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 1: I hope that offer still applies. He we were gonna

536
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 1: sit together at the All Star Game in Dodger Stadium.

537
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 1: There was no All Star Game in a Dodger Stadium.

538
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: So it's supposed to be next year two. I think

539
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a Dodger Stadium. Have you been out

540
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 1: to the stadium since they renovated Dodger Stadium? I have not. No,

541
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 1: I haven't been anywhere. Roberto was there, he said it

542
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 1: was amazing. Really yeah, I gotta get out there and

543
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: check it out. They spent they spent a bunch of

544
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 1: C notes on it to get that. It should be amazing. Right,

545
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 1: it's on the leading edge of you know, what you

546
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: can do with you know, redesigning an old ballpark and

547
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 1: putting you know, taking the old bones and then moving

548
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 1: some things around. Aren't they supposed to have like an

549
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 1: air like a railway system that goes from downtown. And

550
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 1: they were talking about a gondola thing. Yeah, like a

551
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 1: gondola like you're in the Swiss Alps or something. But yeah,

552
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 1: they're they're supposedly gonna do that, Yeah, from from somewhere

553
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: down the hill, which will be which would be kind

554
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 1: of cool until somebody falls out of it, and you know,

555
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 1: ben sounds like a Bond thriller. Yeah. That well, you know,

556
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 1: the drunk people and all people do stupid, stupid crap.

557
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 1: Valls Fan Jimmy from Fayetteville, Tennessee writes, and he says,

558
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: my wife and I recently purchased a new living room suite.

559
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: It was with the delivery free. They got there and

560
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 1: immediately the delivery people started talking about a tip they did.

561
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 1: They did have to, you know, put the item together,

562
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 1: the items together. So, uh, was I supposed to tip them?

563
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 1: Valls Fan Jimmy says, I gave them a bag of

564
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 1: cucumbers and tomatoes and three bottles of water. Was I wrong? Uh?

565
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 1: I don't know what is the etiquette on delivery. You're

566
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 1: already paying for the delivery. Do you then have to

567
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:56,479
Speaker 1: tip on top of the livery? But I would definitely

568
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 1: not give someone a bag of cucumbers and tomatoes. That's like,

569
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 1: that's a kick to the nuts. Who's wanting cucumbers and

570
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 1: tomatoes in a bag as a as a tip? I

571
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 1: guess the water bottles are nice, you should do that.

572
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 1: I guess the question is are you paying for shipping? Yeah?

573
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 1: Usually to get something that big delivered the living rooms? Uh,

574
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 1: you know set up. Yeah, I think you're paying for

575
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 1: so you pay for the item, shipping and then tax. Yeah, yeah,

576
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: I don't. I mean, what's the proper amount to tip?

577
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 1: What do you give them? I know, like you cross

578
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,760
Speaker 1: side looking at the how much the tip? Here's the tip?

579
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 1: Thanks for not scratching my wall? I don't know. Yeah,

580
00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:45,920
Speaker 1: but then you're always worried if you don't, if you

581
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 1: don't leave a tip, then they'll come back and like,

582
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 1: you know, slash your tires or something like that. Yeah. Uh,

583
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 1: I can't help you on that jet, Jimmy, but I

584
00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 1: guess in the future. You know, I have, you know,

585
00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: ten box, here's tin box whatever. I don't know you

00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:14,680

00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 1: hamburger in l A. There's a bunch of different different options. Uh,

591

Speaker 1: slater'sies not bad, not a bad burger. There's a few

592
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,719
Speaker 1: locations in l A obviously, in and outs and that

Speaker 1: your poison is. Picked your poison, right, Yeah. Uh. Emmett,

596
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 1: the blind Seahawk fan in Olympia, Washington, says, what is

597
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:53,160
Speaker 1: the craziest call you've taken on the show. Uh, Well,

598
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 1: it really depends on what genre. I remember one time

599
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,840
Speaker 1: we had a guy call up and he was on

600
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 1: hold of play a game. Oh and he was stooping

601
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 1: a married woman and he wanted to play the game show.

602
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: So he sat outside in his car and played the game. Um.

603
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 1: And then while he was playing the game, I guess

604
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 1: the woman's husband showed up or whatever. So if he

605
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 1: had gone in there, he would have had a very awkward,

606
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:21,799
Speaker 1: awkward situation. So he gave us to play by play

607
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 1: on that. We've had people pulled over Emmett while they're

608
00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:31,360
Speaker 1: they're on the air. That's awkward. That's awkward. Uh. We've

609
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:36,560
Speaker 1: we've had guys puke on the show. That's uh. And

610
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:40,280
Speaker 1: and pretty much anything Doc Mike has done is wild

611
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 1: and crazy with the yurine and and all that. I

612
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,360
Speaker 1: listened live I forget We're I think it was in

613
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 1: Bakersfield at the time, after a game, and I listened

614
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:53,360
Speaker 1: live when Mark the full name guy called and you

615
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 1: pissed him off so bad and you're it's the throwaway.

616
00:35:58,000 --> 00:35:59,799
Speaker 1: So she said, yeah, yeah, go to hang up on

617
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:01,680
Speaker 1: your stuff. It's like, you'll go hang up with yourself.

618
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,719
Speaker 1: And I was fucking hilarious. I have I died when

619
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 1: he I can feel him. Yeah, I had to block

00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:11,760
Speaker 1: he sent some anti Semitic stuff. I had to block

621
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,879
Speaker 1: him on that. Yeah, yeah, I had to block him

622
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:19,520

623
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:23,399
Speaker 1: all right, you know, go harass somebody else. But then

00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 1: he then I apparently he just listens all day and

625
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:27,960
Speaker 1: he's gotten he can't leave his house or I don't

627
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 1: like really bad messages to random, random people. It's yeah,

628
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 1: so yeah, we won't hear from him anymore unless I

629
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:42,879
Speaker 1: decided to unblock him. He's in, he's on time out

650
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:53,319
Speaker 1: Randy says, why does Mallard hate the Lakers so much?

651
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 1: It's not hate, it's just truth telling. I'm a truth teller, Randy,

652
00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 1: and most of these guys they sucked the toes of

653
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 1: the Lakers and and all that. But I give the

654
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 1: other side, the other side of a story. Kevin from Rockford,

703
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 1: and grill. Famous famous story. Those are some of the

704
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,840
Speaker 1: Those are actually all the food locations that currently have

705
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: a Mallard food dish. Originally, the first place was in Syracuse.

706
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 1: The mal Zone was the first Mallard. It it's like

707
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:38,360
Speaker 1: a cal zone, but it's a mal Zone. That was

708
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 1: at Vetos Pizza and Seafood. But they changed ownership and

709
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 1: so they got rid of that. And then there was

710
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 1: a pizza in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The Mallard pie that

711
00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:53,319
Speaker 1: was available, and we also had the drink that I

712
00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:56,680
Speaker 1: think is still on the menu. I don't I have

713
00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:00,400
Speaker 1: not heard an update on that. But we did have

714
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:06,399
Speaker 1: a drink at a truck stop in Colorado that that

715
00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 1: was a bail But I don't know if that's still

716
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:13,320
Speaker 1: there though, alcoholic or now. Yeah, it was an alcoholic drink.

717
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the Mallard maneuver. Here it is. I found it,

718
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:21,239
Speaker 1: mallarw maneuver. I'm not sure if it's still there though.

719
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:24,040
Speaker 1: You can go in if you're driving through Colorado. Lynman, Colorado.

720
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:28,520
Speaker 1: It is fifty nine miles east of Denver. It's at

721
00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:32,319
Speaker 1: Oscar's truck stop in Lyman, Colorado. Tell him you want

722
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:36,840
Speaker 1: the Mallary maneuver. This came out in twenty It's makers

723
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:42,879
Speaker 1: Mark whiskey, ginger ale, cherry juice and garnish. And that's

724
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:47,440
Speaker 1: the Mallary maneuver right there. You want to give your

725
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 1: food dishes now, guests, gunn I don't have anything good

726
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,960
Speaker 1: like that. There's no food dishes like that, all right,

727
00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 1: And I'm still open. We we have the chicken kind

728
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:57,840
Speaker 1: of covered here. But if you don't want to have

729
00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 1: a Mallard poutine. You know, I'm all for that. That

730
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 1: would be great, mallorputine. Uh point. We just went to

731
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:10,480
Speaker 1: a new poutine place. It's actually an Anaheim, believe it

732
00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 1: or not, and it is amazing. I forget the name

733
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 1: of it, but that's this like food court thing, and

734
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 1: they had it's like chicken fried poutine, gravy little pieces

735
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:28,279
Speaker 1: of fried chicken cut up. Oh my, so good. I'm

736
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:30,759
Speaker 1: gonna probably go back there again. I went to last

737
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 1: week for the first time. Probably gonna go back again

738
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: at some point here maybe today was it. Did they

739
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 1: serve it in a basket? It's like a little uh well,

740
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,319
Speaker 1: everything's to go, so it's probably a basket, but it's

741
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:45,319
Speaker 1: like the paper equivalent of a basket. Yea, son, that's

742
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:49,319
Speaker 1: really good. Yeah, I mean it's your typical poutine play

743
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,200
Speaker 1: and it's not it's not cheap, but it's not like

744
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 1: expensive expensive. It's yeah, eight to ten bucks or whatever

745
00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:58,799
Speaker 1: for the thing poutine. But that's good. Yeah, that's it's

746
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 1: pretty good. Uh. Kevin also says he says, you did

747
00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 1: not eat Rocky Mountain oysters. They make steak jerky and

748
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:07,719
Speaker 1: if I told my wife that I was taking her

749
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 1: out for a steak dinner and instead substituted the actual

750
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,880
Speaker 1: steak for jerky. You would find my body at the

751
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:17,279
Speaker 1: bottom of Lake Michigan. Well, Kevin, that might be true,

752
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 1: but let me play Devil's advocate, Kevin, because in a

753
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:23,000
Speaker 1: court of law, if I go into a courtroom and

754
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:26,200
Speaker 1: I make my case to the judge, I said, listen,

755
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:29,279
Speaker 1: I said, I was gonna eat rocky mountain oysters. These

756
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 1: are rocky mountain oysters. They just happened to be in

757
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 1: the Jeopardy and the Jeopardy they happen to be in

758
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 1: the jerky shape. Technically, that is in the eyes of

759
00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 1: the court, that is rocky mountain oysters. Because it is

760
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:46,280
Speaker 1: bull testicles that I ate, and that is rocky mountain osters.

761
00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:49,680
Speaker 1: And it says on the package rocky Mountain oysters. So

762
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:53,279
Speaker 1: while I agree with you that your wife would not

763
00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:55,400
Speaker 1: be very happy if you took her out for steak

764
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:59,400
Speaker 1: and all that stuff, but by the letter of the law,

765
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 1: I am. By the letter of the law, I'm correct.

766
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 1: I'm just curious what to bet you're gonna lose this year.

767
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lose any bets. I am a winner, winning, winning,

768
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,919
Speaker 1: Eddie is the one losing bets. Now he's the one

769
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 1: making hockey bests with Gordy and Ottawa losing those bets.

770
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:21,200
Speaker 1: Chris from Edmonton Last one christa Edmonton writes and speaking

771
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:24,400
Speaker 1: of Canada, he says, men, do you think it is

772
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 1: a good idea to keep investing with wealth? Simple? My

773
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,640
Speaker 1: portfolio is up a hundred and forty dollars in one day.

774
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 1: I think he said, he just said a hundred four.

775
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:36,839
Speaker 1: I think he said a hundred forty thousand, better than

776
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:40,480
Speaker 1: a savings account he said. So I'm a little confused.

777
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:42,360
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a great question, is a

778
00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:44,640
Speaker 1: good idea to keep investing? Who would tell you not

779
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:47,960
Speaker 1: to keep him? Like, who's gonna say no, no, I

780
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 1: don't think you should invest. I think I think you're

781
00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:54,839
Speaker 1: good on that. No more investing, please, no more? Uh yeah,

782
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:57,600
Speaker 1: I mean these apps it's like it's it's addictive. It's

783
00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 1: like gambling, you know, I played playing around day trading

784
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:05,439
Speaker 1: and it's so simple you don't even realize what you're doing.

785
00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 1: Some of the time. You're I guess the social media too.

786
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,919
Speaker 1: You can jump on any rede website like Reddit, going

787
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:16,239
Speaker 1: discored some of those other platforms to go on Wall

788
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:20,839
Speaker 1: Street bets. You know, goes up and down and up

789
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:24,080
Speaker 1: and down and up and down, and you gotta be

790
00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 1: able to take the swing. I mean you have You're

792
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:34,279

Speaker 1: be able to bob and weave, bob and weave when

794
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,440
Speaker 1: you're playing the stucks and you My advice is much

795
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,920
Speaker 1: like when you like, weigh yourself, you're not supposed to.

796
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:43,960
Speaker 1: Some people say to weigh yourself every day. I think

797
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 1: if you're on a diet you're trying to lose weight,

798
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,680
Speaker 1: that's bad. You should weigh yourself maybe once a week

799
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:52,120
Speaker 1: or once every other week because it's depressing. I mean,

800
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:55,200
Speaker 1: you're not gonna have the results you're looking for every day.

801
00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:58,320
Speaker 1: But if you do it every week or every other week,

802
00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 1: you're more likely to get good results. Anyway. All right,

803
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:06,000
Speaker 1: that is it. We will be back back back back
