Is that the Philadelphia A's hut, no, no, 22 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: try again. Guest number two, what do you think. Let's 23 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: see that is the Antelope Valley ant eaters. There you go, 24 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: you got that right. Amazing job, unless unfortunately that is 25 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: not correct. But the the answer is this is a 26 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: Arkansas razorbacks hat that one of our great podcast listeners 27 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: sent in and I I like it. I don't normally 28 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: wear hats with a's on them, because I only like 29 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: hats with the B for Ben or M for for Mallard. 30 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: But this is such a cool hat. It's an exemption. 31 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: I got a few hats that I wrote work in 32 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: my rotation that don't have the M or BE on them, 33 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: but this is one of them. Is a good hat, 34 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: very large, a one of the biggest letters I've seen 35 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 1: in a hat. I got it all over me. Anyway, 36 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: on this edition of the podcast here the fifth hour, 37 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: we first of all want to beg you to please 38 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 1: give a good review, not a bad review, a good 39 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: review five stars, five stars. Again, people say, why does 40 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 1: it matter who the hell reads those things? And I 41 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: agree with you. I think a normal person would not 42 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: read those things. But you gott understand we have management 43 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: and they have a lot of time on their hands 44 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: and so they read those things and it doesn't make 45 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: any sense to me. But again that that's just an 46 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: easy way to help us and do us a solid 47 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: and would certainly certainly be great if you could do that. Again, 48 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 1: that's on the mainly the Apple page, right, Danny, isn't 49 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: that the main one for the podcast review? It is? Yeah, 50 00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: that's where you find the review capabilities. Yeah, so please 51 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: say yes no no, you know I said say yes, 52 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 1: not no. If you disagree with something Ben says on 53 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: the podcast, feel free to give a two star review. No, no, no, no, 54 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 1: because if you believe that I've said anything incorrect, I mean, 55 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: what's wrong with you? Have you noticed that I love 56 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: this toy that I have to access to It's just amazing. No, 57 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: I haven't noticed, not at all. Right. Yeah, I did 58 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: add a few more bells and whistles this week to 59 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: make it make it more exciting. Yeah. Can you imagine 60 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: if you had this available on your live show? Yeah? Well, 61 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: I've told I've told the story. Did I think I 62 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: told you? Years ago? When I was first started, I worked, 63 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: I started San Diego and I got my first real 64 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: talk show. Break was in l A and we had 65 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: those the replay machines. Wheah. They were called instant replay machines. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly, 66 00:03:55,640 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: the really expensive old technology compared to now you can 67 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: do everything on your phone now. But I had that 68 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: and I, oh, I love that machine so much. Oh 69 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: my god, it was awesome. Uh everything, I just hit 70 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: all the buttons after and I hit the rim shot 71 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: after everything, and that was the funniest out. And my 72 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: program director, this guy Bo Bennett, came running in. He 73 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: was not a fan of my use of the replay machine, 74 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: and he literally in the middle of a segment I 75 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: was talking. I was on the show with this guy 76 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: named David Smith, and they pulled the replay machine out. 77 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: He was so upset. There were cables attached to it, 78 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: either power and then there was another connected to the board, 79 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: the engineering board, and he just ripped that thing out 80 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 1: and its stormed out of the studio and that was 81 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: that was the end of the replay machine for me. 82 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 1: So yeah, this is like a special treat anyway, in 83 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: this edition the Saturday podcast, and he has the weekend 84 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 1: and all that there's no football this weekend, waiting Super 85 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: Bowl weeks coming up, and all about the Oh Bowl, 86 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: Like I said, there's no football going on this weekend. 87 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: Uh so, But but we do have we do have 88 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: tales from our lives, tales from what what?

Then, you know, in advertising these days, the 91 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: people who make commercials have determined that the way to 92 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 1: get people to spend money is to tell a store. 93 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: It's like restaurants. Have you gone to it was the 94 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 1: last time you to a restaurant, Like a chain restaurant. 95 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 1: They didn't have the story of how the restaurants started, 96 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: and you know that, you know they were poor, and 97 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 1: they know the moms recipe with whatever it might be. 98 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: And they all do it because they have market research 99 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: that claims that people love that stuff and it causes 100 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: them to go to support whatever that might be. More. Now, 101 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that you're gonna support this podcast more, 102 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: but we just we we're just here too, schmooz. Right, 103 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 1: So we're doing so on this podcast, We've got dress rehearsal, 104 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: the Death Star, these tighter Man meme comes to life, 105 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 1: and ten year old Benny's dream come true. All of 106 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: those year old Benny you know exactly. Uh So, I 107 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 1: wanted to start with this. Now. As you know, Danny, 108 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 1: I don't get out of the Mallard mansion much anymore, 109 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: this being the COVID era of our lives. And I 110 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: do not like the bullshit that you have to go 111 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: through to go anywhere, and a lot of red tape. 112 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: I can't stand it. Drives me not. I think a 113 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: lot of it is just for show and it doesn't 114 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: accomplish anything. If I believe it accomplished something, I would 115 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: be all in on it. I think it's just for, 116 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: you know, just for people to say, oh, look at me, 117 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 1: I'm virtue signaling. I can't stand it. So uh you know, 118 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: the fact I have to go to a football game 119 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: and show my papers to cover a football game, it 120 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: just blows me away. Uh, it's insane to me. I 121 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: do appear to be in the minority though, because I 122 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: don't think many people are not going to these things. 123 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 1: But so I had been a staple for like twenty 124 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,799 Speaker 1: five plus years of my life at these sporting events, 125 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: and now in this year of my life, last three 126 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: years two, it's rare and appropriate. I still go out. 127 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: I'll go to a Dodger playoff game or a RAM game. Everyone, 128 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: but it's rare and appropriate. And the the NFC Championship 129 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: game got me to leave my house and I didn't 130 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: make it in and we were talking about that on 131 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: the podcast and I was like, well, am I gonna go? 132 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: And I one the reason I said, am I gonna go? 133 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: Not gonna go? Because I was like, well, you know, 134 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: the traffic and the the bullshit. But I ended up 135 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: doing it, and I'm glad I did. I went to 136 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: Sopi Stadium in the hood in Inglewood. How scared were 137 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: you with that interception that was in the Niner players hands? Well, 138 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: you got to complete the play and he didn't complete 139 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: the play, So bat job by him. That's that's the difference, right, 140 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: It's just like, yeah, I don't know what his first 141 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: name is, but that listen that through the David Tyree catch, great, 142 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: great catch people love. I think it was a bull 143 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: bull crap catch. But he drops that much different conversation, right, 144 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: We're having a much different conversation. Patriots had the perfect 145 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: was that the perfect year? But I don't know if 146 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: that was even the perfect year. I think that was 147 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: a different year. But no, we're having a different conversation 148 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: about this, and instead of you know, goofing on Brady 149 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: for losing to Eli. A couple of times, we're playing 150 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: the sad violin, like how did you lose that game? 151 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:34,079 Speaker 1: It's wrong with you, shame on you anyway. Now, were 152 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: you in the beautiful media box? I was? I was 153 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: so uh and uh you know this, it was a 154 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,959 Speaker 1: long weekend. Uh. You know, there's a lot of stuff 155 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: going on in that. But world class operation tip of 156 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: the microphone to the rams. I mean that is my god. 157 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: I was able to get a taste any of the 158 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: super Bowl experience. As you know, the super Bowl is 159 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: only for the cool people. And I'm not a cool 160 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: and you know you're part of me. Now you're cool, 161 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: but I'm you're with me, so you're not cool. So 162 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: uh but the super Bowl for like the media elites, 163 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: you know, the top one percent of media. And most 164 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: of the people that cover the super Bowl don't actually 165 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: go to the game. It's a dirty little secret. They 166 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: have to watch on television or they don't.

But she continued to play the 251 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: rest of the cash that she had in her purse. 252 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: I couldn't tell what she had one and what she 253 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: had lost because she had a combination of tickets and 254 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: spare change just moving around from her wallet to her 255 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: purse to her pocket. Everything had been joined together as 256 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: everything was in a jumbled I got it. That's the 257 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: whole purse. Let me tell the purse in theory. A 258 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: great idea, but everything gets all mixed together. You don't 259 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: even know, right, it's it's every Every purse has got 260 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: to be like that. Yeah. By the end of the weekend, 261 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: she counted what she had in tickets and it was 262 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: three hundred dollars. So she said, hey, this is good. 263 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: I address myself. I'm even right now to her credit. 264 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: On the last day we were there, on Sunday, she 265 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: won twenty bucks on her way out, so she left up. 266 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: Want to eat dollars? That's good, it's not bad. She 267 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: basically did all that gambling to win twenty bucks and 268 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 1: get a sore throat from all of the cigarette smoke. 269 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's that's that's one of the few places 270 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: left the western part of the United States where that 271 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: is allowed. Man, what is up with all of the 272 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: people smoking cigarettes there and blowing it in your face? Yeah? 273 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,479 Speaker 1: I wonder are these people because we live in California, 274 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 1: where you're not really allowed to smoke anywhere. Do these 275 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: people just smoke because they went in Vegas, act like 276 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: you're in Vegas? Or do these people actually smoked year round? 277 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: I because I don't see a lot of people smoking 278 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: anymore because it's been banned everywhere pretty much. Yeah, like 279 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: you said, we don't see it anywhere where we live. 280 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: And it's funny because she asked me that same question 281 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: when we saw a cigar bar and guys were standing 282 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: out in front of that blowing all the cigar smoke 283 00:15:56,560 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: in other people's faces. And that's a step bup of 284 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: nasty and um at the Caesar's Palace, that's where that was. 285 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: But literally, you walked past somebody and they look at 286 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: you and they blow the cigarettes smoke right at your face. Yeah, 287 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: a bunch of assholes, pretty much. And I told her, 288 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: I said, no, these are people who supposedly quit smoking cigarettes, 289 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: but when they go to Vegas they let it all 290 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: hang out. So there are a smoker again. Yeah, you 291 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: fall back, and do you smell anything else there while 292 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 1: you were in Vegas? Yeah? The strip? Yeah, the Strip 293 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: smelled like a hundred coups. There was an infestation of 294 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 1: skunks that somehow attacked the Vegas strip. I don't know 295 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: how that is. It's unbelievable. Did you stop and see 296 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: the Belage deal fountains Spliff City? Uh No, didn't look 297 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: at the fountains. I think we've seen that before. But 298 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: we did get to stay at the Palazzo, which was nice. 299 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: That is a good hotel. Yeah, it's a good. Look 300 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 1: at you you're a baller, of course, connected to the Venetian. Basically, 301 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 1: just got to walk around those two properties. Across the 302 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: street to Caesar is a little bit. You know. We 303 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 1: were at the baseball field for a lot of the 304 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: daytime Saturday and Sunday, so it was more nighttime action 305 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 1: in late afternoon action where we were actually at a casino. 306 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 1: That's cool. Yeah, I've not been to Vegas, but I'm 307 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 1: supposed to go to Vegas, I think later this month. 308 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: I possibly tentatively scheduled the Good to Vegas later in 309 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: the month of February, but I haven't been there since 310 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 1: COVID thing. So I went right before COVID and that 311 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: was that was that. But this thing never seems to end, 312 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 1: just keeps going on. And on and on. How busy 313 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: it was Vegas because a pack it was packed. It 314 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: was I would say about of the people there wore masks, 315 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,919 Speaker 1: but it's not a choir like in California. It's more like, 316 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 1: if you want to that is it a rule you 317 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,479 Speaker 1: have to wear the mask. Here it seemed like it 318 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: was a rule inside but obviously not outside. Okay, yeah, 319 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 1: because it's so far You know the how the the 320 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,400 Speaker 1: governor of California keeps mandating mask that wasn't even wearing 321 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: a mask. All these these Hollywood a holes who were 322 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: telling everyone to wear masks. We're not wearing masks.

He takes you 340 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 1: through the entire process and to watch them spend billions 341 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: of dollars and to see how much technology and everything 342 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 1: goes into this new stadium that they sped up because 343 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: they wanted to get it done for that season, which 344 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 1: wound up getting canceled for fans because of COVID. But 345 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: this was a five year project that they rushed into 346 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: three and a half years, and so to watch them 347 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: works seven been days a week around the clock.

That was the 352 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: one thing that stood out to me, the attention to detail. 353 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 1: Ben ridiculous there. I mean, everything precise and perfect and 354 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: just a masterpiece. Yeah, that's cool. It does look realize. 355 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: So you did the actual stadium tour, right, you did that. 356 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: I had a buddy of mine that lives in Vegas 357 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 1: who said, you gotta do that. It's the coolest thing. 358 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:40,200 Speaker 1: They take you everywhere and you can get a photo 359 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: and the whole thing, like from I guess from a 360 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 1: distance they zoom in. I don't know what they do. 361 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 1: They take you to where our friend Brent Musburger and 362 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:53,119 Speaker 1: Lincoln Kennedy sit during the game. And then they also 363 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 1: take you to Mark Davis's personal suite that you get 364 00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,400 Speaker 1: a view from there. Did they give you the Mark 365 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: Davis hair cut? Did they give you that that bowl cut? 366 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: Is that part of the deal? I asked one of 367 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: the tour guides if there was a barbershop for Mark 368 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:11,199 Speaker 1: Davis there, and he just laughed, So I think the 369 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: answer was no. Well, not only that, but the where's 370 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 1: he Where's is the PF Change he hangs out at? Yeah, 371 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,640 Speaker 1: p F Change is his favorite spot. There's one right 372 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: there on the strip, not far from the stadium. Yeah, 373 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 1: all right, so you made the rounds. What was your 374 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: favorite part? Was it the locker room, was the press box? 375 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 1: Was it just being in the tunnels underneath? Like? What 376 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 1: was the coolest part? I would have to say the 377 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame row. They did a great job on that, 378 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: and the raider ats shiny new facility. Hello, he's a 379 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 1: lovely lady in my apologies tour my Tinda Rowning took 380 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: a picture of herself in the mirror there as she 381 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: is my raider at And it's funny because they have 382 00:21:55,920 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: a tour guide in the front who's doing all the talking. Yeah, yeah, up, 383 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 1: and then there's just one guy trailing in the back 384 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: whose sole job is to be the caboose of the train. 385 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 1: And so we were straggling the whole time so we 386 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: could get the better pictures without strangers in the shots. 387 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: He just kept telling us, Oh, it's all good as 388 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 1: long as I'm the last one. You're good, You're good. 389 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: So they were. Was he also worried somebody was gonna be, 390 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: you know, sneak away and and uh hide out in 391 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: the stadium or something like that. Was that really were 392 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 1: worried about? Yeah? Probably, um, you know, because he looked 393 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 1: very nervous. His head was on a swivel inside Mr 394 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: Davis's suite, and I was thinking it was someone gonna 395 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 1: do like sleeping here until the next game. But once 396 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: we got to where the raidar ats are very cool. 397 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: It was like a raidar At museum. I mean, it 398 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: showed what the raidar ats looked like in the sixties 399 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 1: and there was it was like a museum of their 400 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,880 Speaker 1: uniforms throughout the seasons. The tour guide in the back 401 00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: told us that his favorite raidar At was Mackenzie. We 402 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: went and looked and she was all right, but he 403 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 1: was like, yeah, forget Beyonce, I got to meet her. 404 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: She's bad. He was telling us how he would cheat 405 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 1: on her even though he's engaged, he would cheat on 406 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:15,360 Speaker 1: his fiance with Mackenzie. And so we had a good 407 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,400 Speaker 1: time laughing at this guy's jokes and we were making 408 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: him laugh. We were the end of the train there, 409 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: and so that made the tour extra fund the fact 410 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: that we didn't follow directions and we didn't really listen 411 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: to the lady that was talking at the front of 412 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,640 Speaker 1: the tour. Yeah, so she was droning on and on 413 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: and on, and you were just kind of enjoying the 414 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 1: sights and the stuff. We were in the back goofing around, 415 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: were like the kids goofing around on the field trip. Yeah, well, good, 416 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: good for you. That's the proper way to have a 417 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: stadium tour. I would agree with that. All right. So 418 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: now you've seen this, Now you gotta go to a game, right, 419 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: that's the next step. You gotta go to a game 420 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 1: there next year. That is the next step you talked 421 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: about so far at the top of the podcast. I've 422 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 1: been there. Very very cool stadium, but very steep. You're 423 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: not a man of the people when it comes to 424 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: rams games, so you don't understand. But but Ben, when 425 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,439 Speaker 1: you actually sit in a section there, not up in 426 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 1: the in the high falutin breast box, yeah, oh my god, 427 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:21,400 Speaker 1: it's so steep that if you slightly tripped, you fall 428 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: down this toilet bowl to your death. Well, I don't 429 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: like that. I'm not I'm not a fan of steep. 430 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: That was the one thing I liked better about Vegas 431 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,880 Speaker 1: than so far was you didn't have that steepness going 432 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 1: on with the sections there. Yeah. Did they have a 433 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: lake in front of the stadium in Vegas like they 434 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: do in my tinder? Rooney's son said, Okay, you guys 435 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,400 Speaker 1: have seen both now, so what what do you think. 436 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: What's the biggest difference between the two stadiums. We both 437 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 1: said the same thing. We like the inside of the 438 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: Death Start better. We like the outside of so Far better. 439 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 1: If Vegas is the Death Star, are so Far as 440 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: Jurassic Park? Yeah, it's it's crazy. It's like this weird. Uh. 441 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 1: It's right in the middle of Englewood, which is not 442 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: a great neighborhood in l A, that part of of 443 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: l A.

And he actually did send me a text 502 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,440 Speaker 1: two say that he had his you know, he when 503 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,159 Speaker 1: he got his, he got my credentials. He thought it 504 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,160 Speaker 1: was it was pretty funny. But then the other thing 505 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: was like it was like it was like a series 506 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: of errors, Danny, because he's texting me and I don't 507 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: talk to him that off. You know, we we used 508 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: to go to bar Missfahs and things like that when 509 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 1: we were kids, a little kids. And he's a little 510 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: younger than me, I believe, I think it's younger than me. 511 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 1: We're around the same age. And you know, he moved 512 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: to the Midwest and then he came back to l A. 513 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: And so we kind of lost track. We we we 514 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: reconnected a few years back, but we don't talk that often. 515 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: And so he's texting, He's like, hey, let's meet up. 516 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 1: You know, the photop the Mallard cousin photop. You know, 517 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: I don't have a lot of family out here, most 518 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 1: of them are dead. Uh So, so anyways, all right, whatever, 519 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: and so he's like, hey, meet me here, and I 520 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 1: was like, I can't get there. It turns out that 521 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: he had different access to me. He had access to 522 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 1: where the celebrities were, and I only was allowed like 523 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: where the press box was in the field. I could 524 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: go to the field, which was pretty cool, but I 525 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: was like, meet me down here. It couldn't meet me 526 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: um anyway. But so we just agreed to go to 527 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: dinner or something like that, and we were at the 528 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 1: same stadium but couldn't get to the same spot. And 529 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: uh so, yeah, that was I mean, he also had 530 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: different food, didn't you. Yeah, he must have. I don't. 531 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if he even stayed for the game. 532 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 1: I think he was just there for the pregame and 533 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,719 Speaker 1: they were I guess a lot of celebrities showed him 534 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: on TV. I didn't. I don't even know who most 535 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: of these people are, but I guess they're famous and 536 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 1: there they were there and they got the full television treatments. 537 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: So there was that. Uh one fun final thing. I know, 538 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,239 Speaker 1: we're getting a little long in the tooth here on 539 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: the Saturday edition from the fifth Hour, but the ten 540 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 1: year old Benny's dream comes true and so As again 541 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: relates that when I was growing up a Rams fan, 542 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: fat little kid growing up in Orange County, and I 543 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: envisioned myself playing on the offensive line for the Rams. 544 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: Was convinced because I was fat, that I'd be on 545 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: the offensive line for the Rams. When I when I 546 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: was just gonna happen. You know, when you're a kid 547 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: through the eyes of a child, and it was wearing 548 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 1: Ram horns in my head. I was ready to go. 549 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 1: And of course it never quite worked out. The football 550 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: career went all the sideways on that for a myriad 551 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:46,720 Speaker 1: a myriad of reasons did not quite go my way. 552 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 1: So anyway, when I was a kid, I told the 553 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: story I used to go to RAMS training camp because 554 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 1: I grew up in Irvine and the Rams trained at 555 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: you see Irvine, So my mom it's a different time. 556 00:30:57,920 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: My mom would drive me over there, dropped me off, 557 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: and I'd spent all day wandering around the campus of 558 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 1: use here mind really just the practice fields there, and 559 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 1: have very fund members of that because it was a 560 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: much softer, much softer time, I guess, uh then than 561 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 1: the way it is now. But I remember, just like 562 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 1: I gravitated the offensive line. There was very little security. 563 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: It was during the week. There wasn't hardly anybody there. 564 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 1: It's much there now you've been to training camp. I'm 565 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: sure it's like a corporate event, right, it's a whole thing. 566 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 1: It's marketing. And it wasn't like that, PEPSI. Yeah, it 567 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: was just about practice. And this is so long ago. 568 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 1: Back in the Bronze Age, they actually practiced twice a day. 569 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 1: They had morning and afternoon practice early on like hell 570 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 1: week NFL players. Can you imagine if they told the 571 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 1: NFL players that they gotta practice in the morning and 572 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: come back and practice in the afternoon, there would be upheaval. 573 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: There would be mutiny on the bounty if they did that. Anyway, 574 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 1: So they did back in those days, and it was 575 00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 1: cool when you're a kid, because you got to go 576 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: to practice is in one day. You just had to 577 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: kill time during the middle of the day before they 578 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: came back the practice. So, you know, just gravitated the 579 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: offensive So let's jump ahead now, we move ahead in 580 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 1: the broadcast Danny. So from that's that's a little bit. 581 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: That's for context. So I'm at the RAM forty nine game. 582 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 1: I'm in the press box. I go to search for 583 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: my seat. It's like that, you know when you start 584 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: school and they post the classes in which classroom you 585 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: need to go to the big pain So it's like, 586 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: I don't know where I'm sitting. So I'm trying to 587 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 1: find my seat and abracadabra hocus poems. The Rams had 588 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 1: assigned me a seat in the second row. When you're 589 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: a radio guy and you get a seat in the 590 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 1: second row, that's big Radio's third role. Third row. Radio's radio. 591 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 1: Radio row is always like the worst part of the 592 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: press box. They hate radio. They usually spit loogie's at 593 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: radio people. But for some reason, I ended up in 594 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 1: the second row, like this was a big deal. Danny 595 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: Radio is usually the one talking shit about them. Yeah, exactly. 596 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: So anyway, so I'm in the second row. So I'm 597 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 1: sitting sitting next to me assigned by the Rams, number 598 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: seventy eight in your program, Yeah, number one in your heart, 599 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: the Great Jackie Slater Hall of Fame, Hall of Fame, 600 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 1: Offensive Lineman, Gold jacket Guy, the whole thing and a guy. 601 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 1: When I was a little ten year old Benny and 602 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 1: I got dropped off at RAM training camp. I watched 603 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 1: Jackie Slater. I thought I was gonna be playing with 604 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 1: Jackie Slater on the RAM offensive line. And here I 605 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: am living ten year old Benny's childhood dream because for 606 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 1: the next four hours, me and Jackie Slater are teammates, 607 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 1: were teammates in the media, and damn it, we're the 608 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 1: offensive line and we are there and and I'll I'll 609 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 1: play guard. Jackie could play in the tackle position, and uh, 610 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:48,959 Speaker 1: and it was. He was very nice. I actually had 611 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: under you Jackie before on the phone, but not in 612 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: person where you know, I was feeding him stats and 613 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 1: he he was doing some local TV in l A. So, 614 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 1: but that being said, Danny, I did have one embarrassing, 615 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: my embarrassing, but awkward situation with a great Jackie Slater. 616 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: So the Rams, everyone brings up the forty niner player 617 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 1: that dropped the interception, right that, yeah, we we what's 618 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 1: his name, Tart? Yeah? Whatever. So the Rams also nobody 619 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 1: brings us up because they won the game. But there 620 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:25,239 Speaker 1: were two dropped touchdown past and during one of them, 621 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: and I think it was the Cooper Cup one he 622 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 1: ended up with the touch somebody he missed a fingertip, Yes, 623 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: that one. So I'm sitting there and Jackie Slater lets 624 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: out this loud groan of disgust. Right now, keep in 625 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 1: mind the press box and Sofi Stadium is encased encased 626 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 1: in glass. There's no outside crowd noise, so it's kind 627 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,280 Speaker 1: it's not quiet quiet because you can kind of faintly 628 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 1: hear the crowd a little bit, but it's not the 629 00:34:55,600 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 1: outside ambiance of the stadium. So if we freaking sportswriter, 630 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,400 Speaker 1: every media person turns or you're never you're not supposed 631 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,360 Speaker 1: to cheer in the press box, right and Jackie's doing 632 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:11,240 Speaker 1: this thing. Andy one turns around and they're looking towards 633 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,840 Speaker 1: me because I'm next to Jackie, and um, they didn't. 634 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 1: I don't think they put two and two together. It 635 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 1: was very, very awkward, but that was that was a 636 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:22,360 Speaker 1: lot of fun. It was a good time, and I 637 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,760 Speaker 1: got you talk to Jackie. He wants to do the podcast. 638 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 1: He's he's cool to do it. So hopefully, if all 639 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 1: goes well, maybe next week we'll have the great Jackie Slader. 640 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 1: I think it'd be appropriate with the Rams in the 641 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. Get his perspective, yeah and everything. 642 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 1: So I always see him on one of the l 643 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 1: A TV stations here doing one of those sports rap shows. Yeah, yeah, 644 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 1: that's what he was there. It was him. It was 645 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:46,360 Speaker 1: like if you're an old Rams fan from back in 646 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 1: the day, it was I saw Vince Ferragamo was sitting there, 647 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:54,239 Speaker 1: and then Jackie Jackie Slater. So it's like nineteen late seventies, 648 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: early eighties, right around that time Rams Rams football, So 649 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 1: that was that was pretty neat. So it's pretty cool, 650 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 1: and I think that's it right that we put the 651 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: baby to bed for now. I was gonna do some 652 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 1: pop quiz, but I think we've gone a little long 653 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 1: on this. And so Ben, how nuts did the male 654 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:15,239 Speaker 1: dancers go on the Ram field after the big win? Yeah? 655 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 1: I know, Danny. Of all the things the Rams have 656 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 1: done over the years, you will not when it comes 657 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,879 Speaker 1: to the male cheerleaders. And so are your favorite topics? Man? 658 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 1: Uh you know, listen, no one's perfect. Humans are fallible 659 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 1: and uh you know it all day and ram it 660 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 1: all night.
