But this podcast 45 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 3: is all about random things and the Friday Podcast. I 46 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 3: have made an editorial decision that this podcast is a 47 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:55,239 Speaker 3: companion podcast. It is right for a true TV officia 48 00:02:55,360 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 3: not to watching the latest episode of BVP.

I recognize faces, but 138 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 3: I don't really remember names anyway. So Looney shows up, 139 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 3: We do the table read.

As we are doing this, 151 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 3: we start, well, let's just say, we start experiencing something 152 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 3: that was really weird. It was like the ghost of Elvis. 153 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 3: Elvis Presley visited the building. It was shake, rattle, and roll. 154 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 3: We had a four point seven earthquake in Malibubu. So 155 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 3: the cameras are shaken, the lights are rattling, the chair 156 00:09:54,080 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 3: is rolling. We'd never lost connection to Ball, so the 157 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 3: line stayed up. We were still connected to Vinnie and 158 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 3: the people that produced the show at NBC Sports Boston, 159 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 3: So that was good. The other thing that freaked me out. 160 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 3: And I've never gotten this message before. And I live 161 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 3: in earthquake country, and I'm around earthquakes because I live here. 162 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 3: I've had many of them my entire life, and I'll 163 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 3: have many more. 164 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 1: If I keep going here. 165 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 3: But as the earthquake is happening, Looney says, we're having 166 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 3: an earthquake. Everything's shaken, you know, the whole thing. And 167 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 3: my phone starts buzzing Emergency alert, emergency alert text message. 168 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, what the hell. 169 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 3: As the earthquake is happening, it says, earthquake detected, drop cover, 170 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 3: hold on, Protect yourself, USGS Shake Alert, USGS Shake Alert. 171 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 3: So as I am there preparing for the TV show 172 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 3: about to start the open saying hey, it's week three, 173 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 3: thanks for watching, blah blah blah blah blah, earthquake happens, 174 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 3: I get a text message at that moment.

Where did that come from? 413 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:28,719 Speaker 3: So the Malor Investigative Bureau was activated, was activated, and 414 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 3: I did get some intel on this, so I will 415 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,160 Speaker 3: share it with you right now. The phrase get out 416 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 3: of Dodge originated Is it about the Dodge automobile? No, 417 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 3: it's not get out of a Dodge car. It originated 418 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 3: in Dodge City, Kansas. The word or the phrase actually 419 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 3: the phrase get out of Dodge, which is forwards. It 420 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 3: originated over one hundred and fifty years ago. It was 421 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 3: in the eighteen seventies, sometime in the eighteen seventies around 422 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 3: that time. And if you're unfamiliar with the term, it's 423 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 3: rather obvious. It's used to describe leaving a place that's 424 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 3: uncomfortable or dangerous. Okay, it turns out that Dodge City, 425 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 3: Canas never been I've been to Kansas, but I've never 426 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 3: been to Dutch City, Canas. Dodge City was a cowtown 427 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 3: in the eighteen seventies, and there were cowboys in the 428 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 3: eighteen seventies, right, I think about the Industrial Revolution and 429 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 3: when cities really started being built up. It wasn't around 430 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:34,159 Speaker 3: that time, but it was a little later on. So anyway, 431 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 3: in the eighteen seventies, you had the cowboys out there 432 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 3: doing their thing, and they would bring the cattle to 433 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 3: the railroads in Dodge City, and they would go there 434 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 3: because they'd have to ship the cattle to the East. 435 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 1: So the good people of. 436 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 3: Boston and New York and Philadelphia and Washington and all 437 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 3: the other eastern cities had access to the cattle. 438 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 1: To eat their meat. 439 00:26:56,160 --> 00:27:00,880 Speaker 3: And it became because of this a boomtown. 440 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. How crazy is that? 441 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 3: Dodge City, Kansas in the eighteen seventies, what's considered. 442 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 1: A boom town? Like that's that's kind of cool, right, 443 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: I don't think of that now. 444 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 3: But the other thing is, because of the fact that 445 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 3: they had the railroads and the cattle and all that 446 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 3: was a boomtown, but it was also known as a 447 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:34,199 Speaker 3: deep dark place, one of the most dangerous cowtowns in 448 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 3: the Midwest. 449 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: Dodge City. 450 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 3: Now the reason, as the legend goes the legend of 451 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 3: Dodge City. It was ruled by Bat Masterson. That's a 452 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 3: great name. That sounds like his fake name, Bat Masterson. 453 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 3: And Wyatt Earp. Now I know who Wyatt urpis. We 454 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 3: all know who Wyatt Urpi is, right, I mean, that's 455 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 3: a that is a big one. 456 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 1: That is a big one.
