He's the last remnants 0:00:09.200 --> 0:00:12.480 of the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He 0:00:12.560 --> 0:00:15.480 treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the 0:00:15.600 --> 0:00:19.560 rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow to clearinghouse of 0:00:19.640 --> 0:00:23.480 hot takes, break free for something special. The Fifth Hour 0:00:23.600 --> 0:00:29.400 with Ben Maller starts right now. 0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:34.200 In the air everywhere, The Fifth Hour with Me, Ben 0:00:34.280 --> 0:00:38.040 Maller and Danny g Radio. You have stumbled on to 0:00:38.159 --> 0:00:41.320 the mail bag. That's right now. I do have something 0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:42.879 I want to get to before we get to the 0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:46.159 actual mail bag with Ohio Al and all the magic 0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:49.919 and all that. As we are hanging out on one 0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:53.880 of the final Sundays before real football, not the final 0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:58.880 Sunday before real football. But we still have some time 0:00:58.920 --> 0:01:05.880 to go. But here we go. This weekend has been 0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:10.000 Week two. Well, there was that first game Chargers played in, 0:01:10.040 --> 0:01:11.760 but that doesn't count. So Week two and the next 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:15.880 week's Week three, and then there's no games the thirtieth 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:22.039 and thirty first, and then the season begin on September fourth, right, 0:01:22.440 --> 0:01:26.760 Cowboys and Eagles. Then the Chargers played and I think 0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:28.720 they played the Chiefs in Brazil? Is that right? 0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:31.399 Don't you think it should be a national holiday in 0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:32.160 the US of A? 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:34.840 Oh? It kind of is. I mean, we you know, 0:01:34.880 --> 0:01:37.280 people don't really pay attention at work. There were worried 0:01:37.319 --> 0:01:40.200 about the parlays and all that stuff. So we have 0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:42.280 that to look forward to. And on this we got 0:01:42.280 --> 0:01:44.039 the mailback. I did want to start with this. I'd 0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:46.759 mentioned this on the Friday podcast and I didn't get 0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:50.240 to it yesterday. Bet job by me, but a little 0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:54.200 left right center of the universe, Danny, I wanted to 0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:58.560 tell this tale story time on the Fifth Hour podcast. 0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:01.080 So there are You've been to some of the parties 0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:03.760 over the years, Danny them, And we've got the ugly 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:05.960 Sweater party we do every year. But there are dinner parties, 0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:09.240 and then there are Mallard dinner parties, the kind that 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:13.440 start with twenty seven burgers and end up with a 0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:18.680 dice game somewhere in the middle and feature five kids 0:02:18.800 --> 0:02:22.440 learning the fundamental You gotta start them young, the fundamentals 0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:28.080 of gambling faster. They know gambling now more than they 0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:32.920 know long division. The kids. Okay, so I'd mentioned I 0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:36.160 took some time off, well the week prior because my 0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:39.080 brother showed up from the East coast, and so we 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:41.680 had By the time this thing happened, we had eleven 0:02:41.760 --> 0:02:44.760 people crammed into the to the Malor mansion. Me, my wife, 0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:48.600 my brother, you know, his wife, his kids, my cousin. 0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:51.040 I have one cousin that lives locally and her kids. 0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:54.840 We had. We had a full We had a full house. Right. 0:02:54.960 --> 0:02:58.959 We are pretty much a roade band of underage wild 0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:03.560 cards there. And the food, as always is abundant. We 0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:06.560 had I was making the burgers there and all that stuff. 0:03:06.880 --> 0:03:10.600 Uh and and so we had that going. We had chips, 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:12.959 we had hot dogs, we had it was like a 0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:17.200 Vegas buffet, you know, chips flowing like the Colorado River. 0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:20.800 Manja manja. You know, my wife's got some Italian blood, 0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:24.240 so manja manja. And you didn't eat until you were 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:27.480 you full. You ate until you were emotionally complete. And 0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:29.519 then came the game. And this is why this is 0:03:29.520 --> 0:03:32.040 the part I want to talk about. So left right center. 0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:35.400 I've talked about this game before. I love this freaking game. 0:03:35.720 --> 0:03:39.960 Mindless fun three dice, three fake dollars or real dollars, 0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:42.240 if you're you know you want to go there one 0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:47.880 family wide descent into competitive gambling madness. And uh, you 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:50.920 know you said, well, fake money whatever, it's durable fake money. 0:03:51.000 --> 0:03:54.200 But Danny, let me tell you something. When you put 0:03:54.480 --> 0:03:56.880 three fake bucks in front of a nine year old 0:03:56.960 --> 0:03:59.760 child and tell them they can win all the fake 0:04:00.640 --> 0:04:02.320 they have no concept. 0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:05.720 Right, That's why the board gay Monopoly has been so 0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:07.320 popular for so many years. 0:04:07.640 --> 0:04:10.000 Yeah, like one of the kids, I'm pretty sure this 0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:12.680 kid thought he was the Wolf of Wall Street playing 0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:17.120 the game right, because he had to fake money. And 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:20.120 it was funny because one of the one of the 0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:24.400 little girls that was playing my cousin's daughter, she was 0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:27.640 very skeptical and you could tell she had been raised properly. 0:04:27.800 --> 0:04:31.240 So I of course announced to everyone as our kids 0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:34.320 get around the table do a little gambling. So this 0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:37.160 little girl, what a sweetheart. She's a I don't gamble, 0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:41.520 that's wrong. You shouldn't gamble, right, And so she didn't 0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:43.680 want to take part. She walked away, right, She's okay, 0:04:43.720 --> 0:04:46.039 all right, fine, whatever, you don't have to get And 0:04:46.120 --> 0:04:50.480 so we played a game and then my thing, Danny, 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:52.479 whoever won the game, I actually gave real money to 0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:56.360 I had a extra money, I tossed some money their way. 0:04:56.640 --> 0:04:58.880 So once she found out there was real money, the 0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:01.960 little girl all of a sudden her opinion on gambling 0:05:02.080 --> 0:05:06.440 changed and she came back and she sit down, She's like, 0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:10.640 all right, here we go. And so it was great. 0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:12.920 You know. It's like, you know, they went from asking 0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:15.320 if they could trade their chips for M and ms 0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:18.240 or whatever, and then all of a sudden they're calculating 0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:21.760 the odds on each dice roll like some kind of 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:24.800 m I T blackjack thing or something like that. And 0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:27.279 so the dice a flying left right center. You lose 0:05:27.320 --> 0:05:29.360 a buck, you gain a buck, You scream at your 0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:33.760 cousin for rolling three dots and ruining your empire. It's 0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:36.120 it is kind of like monopoly, right without the board, Danny. 0:05:36.160 --> 0:05:38.719 It's like monopoly. It's craps without the pit boss. It's 0:05:39.040 --> 0:05:43.800 it's capitalism at its purest form. It's it ends up chaotic, loud, 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:46.560 and it's it's mindless, which I love. You don't have 0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:49.240 to think about it. It's so simple. There's no real 0:05:49.279 --> 0:05:53.760 strategy to it. And at one point, my uh my, 0:05:53.760 --> 0:05:56.560 my my neph my nephew, or I guess I call 0:05:56.640 --> 0:06:00.560 my nephews. My cousin rolled like three centers in a row, 0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:02.640 and you know, everyone you know going crazy and all 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:06.000 that stuff. It's like it's like a game winning shot 0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:10.040 or a walk off hit and it it was really 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:12.320 a lot of fun. And yet it was fake money. 0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:13.760 As I said, there was some real money as I 0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:18.000 gave out. But we are responsible adults, Danny. We we 0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:21.279 we don't gamble with real cash unless we occasionally do. 0:06:21.360 --> 0:06:25.080 But it would be illegal to do that with real 0:06:25.160 --> 0:06:28.039 cash with kids, right. But the stakes we had pride, 0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:30.159 there was honor. There was a little bit of a 0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:33.080 bounty at the end that was paid out, and it 0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:35.720 was it was just wonderful and we had a great time. 0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:39.200 Everyone ate well and had a lot of fun. 0:06:39.360 --> 0:06:42.280 And and when these kids get to be twenty one, 0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:44.120 I think we know where they're going to be celebrating 0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:44.880 their birthdays. 0:06:45.360 --> 0:06:49.080 Yeah, I really it is important. I don't know about 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:51.200 you with the kids and stuff, Like I I have 0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:54.000 fond memories when I would go to family reunions and 0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:56.560 I had one of my cousins gave me like the 0:06:56.600 --> 0:06:59.120 first beer I ever had, you know, those kind of 0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:01.320 things like I think those are the experiences that you remember. 0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:03.599 I don't remember a lot of stuff other than those 0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:07.599 kind of weird, standout experiences anyway. All right, enough of that, 0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:12.040 let's get to the reason you're here. The mail bag, 0:07:12.160 --> 0:07:29.560 and that means Ohio Al. It's all right, thank you 0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:31.160 very much, O. Hi the great ohio Al. 0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:31.400 There. 0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:35.240 We love the man, very talented musician. I will meet 0:07:35.280 --> 0:07:37.080 him at some point when we do the Ohio Meet 0:07:37.080 --> 0:07:42.280 and greet. Let's see who's up first. Dave Dave from Seattle, 0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:44.680 beautiful city, Seattle, love it, love it. I've only been 0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:47.880 there when the weather's good anyway. Dave says, Hey, Ben, 0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:51.040 please tell Danny g to save this one for animal Thunderdome. 0:07:51.360 --> 0:07:53.760 I know that Clay will love it, so I love that. 0:07:53.840 --> 0:07:56.760 The first message I got Danny is a message for 0:07:56.840 --> 0:08:00.280 you to pass on to Clay. He says, there's a 0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:02.720 warning out. This is from Dave. He sent me a 0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:08.040 news story. A Frankenstein rabbit with tentacles sprouting from their 0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:12.280 heads have invaded parts of the US. Do not touch them. 0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:18.440 They've been multiple spotted in Fort Collins, Colorado. Grotesque horned 0:08:18.520 --> 0:08:23.080 creatures with black tentacle like gross sprouting from their faces 0:08:23.760 --> 0:08:27.200 sightings are on the rise with this. This wouldn't make 0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:29.920 animal Thunderdome. This is just about a weird Oh I'm 0:08:29.920 --> 0:08:31.280 looking at a holy crap. 0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:36.959 Okay, there's a story going around Ben about an army 0:08:37.000 --> 0:08:41.240 of robot rabbits that they deployed in Florida to fight pythons. 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:44.160 Oh is that right? I'm sending you a photo, Danny 0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:44.720 of right. 0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:46.640 Yeah, send that. So when you were first saying that, 0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:48.920 I thought maybe that's what the story was. 0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:53.240 Oh no, no, this is uh that doesn't that look like? 0:08:53.600 --> 0:08:55.640 Uh, let me see, I gotta see this one. 0:08:56.000 --> 0:08:59.920 Yeah, it's uh it looks like some kind of rash 0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:03.440 or fungus is growing on the on the head of 0:09:03.480 --> 0:09:06.840 the rabbit. Uh. If it can, it should be in 0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:10.880 your uh your f Oh what yeah, it says. These 0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:15.839 Frankenstein rabbits have mainly been seen in Colorado. Researchers noted 0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:19.360 that the cottontail rabbits throughout the Midwest could become infected. 0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:20.920 It's say, it's a rare box. 0:09:21.400 --> 0:09:25.360 It looks like spores on HBO Max. The last of us, 0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:29.760 the people that got infected, they grew spores out of 0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:31.559 their face, and that's what that looks like. 0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:34.160 It looks like when I was a kid, we had 0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:36.120 a lot of eucalyptus trees and every once in a 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:38.080 while they get a fungus on it, and it kind 0:09:38.080 --> 0:09:41.320 of looked like that. It's pretty pretty gnarly. 0:09:41.840 --> 0:09:42.720 That is freaky. 0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:46.000 But you're is is that an Animal Thunderdome story? Though 0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:49.360 it's not about fighting animal, it's about you know, fungus fighting. 0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:52.800 It would probably get an honorable mention and it's not 0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:55.319 something I would like focus on for a whole segment. 0:09:55.679 --> 0:09:58.480 Okay, I got you, I got you? And uh is 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:02.160 are you preparing CoA for Animal Thunderdome when that show 0:10:02.240 --> 0:10:04.400 starts when he's thirty years old? Are you getting there? 0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:06.240 Yeah, let's go baby twenty five. 0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:13.240 It's gonna happen, Baby, it is gonna happen. Yes, absolutely, 0:10:13.280 --> 0:10:18.839 all right? What is next year? Barry from South Carolina? Yo, Yo, 0:10:19.000 --> 0:10:22.080 Mob Benny and Danny Gee. He says, So I'm not 0:10:22.320 --> 0:10:26.200 trying to go to the third rail, my man. But 0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:30.080 you know what that means, Danny? But yeah, he says, 0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:33.200 I've been noticing that Lorena contributes and jumps in often 0:10:33.280 --> 0:10:37.080 on discussions, and Roberto and Eddie also chipped in often 0:10:37.480 --> 0:10:39.640 when they were on the show. Conversely, it seems like 0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:43.400 Coop never says anything except for when he plays the games. 0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:46.040 Why doesn't Coop chime in more? Is he smoking a 0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:50.760 ball during the show? That's from Barry and I couldn't 0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:54.280 answer that. Barry, I have no idea. It would help 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:57.360 us out if he would be more engaged. He's just not. 0:10:57.679 --> 0:11:00.199 He's not really engaged in the show. A lot know 0:11:00.240 --> 0:11:04.440 what's going on. I do know since Eddie left, and 0:11:04.760 --> 0:11:06.680 you know, he didn't leave on his own accord, they 0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:09.240 whacked him. But since Eddie left in November, I have 0:11:09.440 --> 0:11:13.200 noticed Danny that by the end of the show, my 0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:17.760 voice is like shredded chicken. My vocal cords are like 0:11:17.800 --> 0:11:21.120 shredded chicken. Doing the four hours with mostly just me 0:11:21.240 --> 0:11:24.240 talking for four hours. So it literally at the end 0:11:24.280 --> 0:11:26.480 of the show and I feel bad. My wife's like, hey, 0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:28.199 she wants to talk to me after the show. She 0:11:28.520 --> 0:11:30.640 works overnights at the police station, so like, I want 0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:32.280 to call me up, and I'm like, I can't talk 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:35.120 to you. I have to I have to be quiet 0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:37.120 literally for like. 0:11:37.080 --> 0:11:40.960 Two you're like a singer on voice rest exactly. 0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:44.719 I mean, it's it's wild and it's but I don't 0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:46.280 know what to tell you, Barry. I mean, he's you know, 0:11:46.640 --> 0:11:48.600 I just I'm just happy when Coop shows up before 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:49.319 the show starts. 0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:52.400 Anny, I know what part of it is. What's that 0:11:53.040 --> 0:11:55.280 I know this from being in that studio with Coop 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:58.679 during your show. He hated it when any of our 0:11:58.760 --> 0:12:02.320 voices were al along with yours when you were talking 0:12:02.360 --> 0:12:05.720 about something topical in sports, because he was trying to 0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:08.920 isolate it during the show to then send it to 0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:12.080 Veto and the guys to make a promo. 0:12:11.880 --> 0:12:15.160 Out of Oh, okay, I'm looking for the pros. 0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:17.679 That's not the whole thing, but that's part of it 0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:20.240 is that he used to be like, nobody say anything. 0:12:20.280 --> 0:12:22.679 I want Ben's take on this, because he was trying 0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:26.120 to get that work done during the show. Gotcha, Yeah, 0:12:26.320 --> 0:12:26.640 I know. 0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:30.439 Plomo's that air all the time. Freddy from Ohio. I 0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:33.280 don't know where. It's rather a large state, Freddie, he 0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:35.880 does not say his Saison from Ohio says, hey, Ben 0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:38.880 and Danny g here's another question about the show. Danny says, 0:12:38.920 --> 0:12:42.040 how come every time some caller takes a shot at Lorena, 0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:45.720 we get a bunch of fans on social media, creating chaos. 0:12:46.720 --> 0:12:52.600 He says, well, Freddy, listen, what do you want me 0:12:52.600 --> 0:12:58.000 to do? I have worked with women on Karen Ka, 0:12:58.360 --> 0:13:00.800 Miranda Marino, some other women along the way, and I 0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:02.640 have no problem. I work with anybody. I don't care. 0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:06.480 But one thing about women, Danny I've noticed is it's 0:13:07.320 --> 0:13:10.439 it's girl power. It's like a double edged sword with 0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:14.360 women on sports radio. And Lorraine has experienced this because 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:18.200 you have some guys who, no matter what she does, 0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:22.840 will defend her and her honor because she's a woman. 0:13:22.960 --> 0:13:25.440 And then there's other guys that are like, I hate 0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:28.760 all women who are on sports radio, and so I'm 0:13:28.800 --> 0:13:30.240 going to try to tear her down. 0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:33.520 Women in talk radio are very polarizing. 0:13:34.160 --> 0:13:36.560 Yeah, some people, no matter what she does, people love her. 0:13:36.600 --> 0:13:38.600 And then there's other people no matter what she says, 0:13:39.040 --> 0:13:42.600 she could solve cancer, and people will be like fuck her. 0:13:42.960 --> 0:13:45.360 You know. So it's like this weird it's this weird 0:13:45.400 --> 0:13:47.960 thing is always every woman I've worked with, it's the 0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:50.640 same thing. You know. I was just trying to do 0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:52.200 a good show. I don't care who I mean. I 0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:53.959 want to work with people that are engaged and want 0:13:53.960 --> 0:13:56.560 to be part of it and all that stuff, and yeah, 0:13:56.720 --> 0:13:59.720 but it is interesting, Freddie, I don't know what to Yeah, 0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:00.679 don't know what else to say. 0:14:00.800 --> 0:14:03.680 Let somebody personally offends you and says their name on 0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:06.120 the air while they're doing it. Just be nice to 0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:06.800 the whole crew. 0:14:07.320 --> 0:14:09.840 Yeah, just be nice to people. It's not you know, 0:14:09.880 --> 0:14:12.080 it's not that big. And now we do have a 0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:17.040 Big Lou from the LBC road in and Glue. He's 0:14:17.080 --> 0:14:20.960 on number two. I love Glue.

Reggie from Detroit writes 0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:45.840 and says, Ben, when can we get some details on 0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:48.960 where to watch Benny Versus the Penny twenty twenty five? 0:17:49.800 --> 0:17:53.000 Since the peacock dropped the ball, Reggie says, have you 0:17:53.080 --> 0:17:57.520 got a backup plan? Well, Reggie I'm not ready to 0:17:57.560 --> 0:18:01.080 announce the backup plan we are f there's a couple 0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:03.760 of things that are going on, and the way I'll 0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:06.720 answer this, and also Danny, the way I'll answer this, 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:09.440 we will both get the reference because we're old. Do 0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:13.320 you remember Indiana Jones, the Indiana Jones movie franchise, the 0:18:13.359 --> 0:18:15.240 Originals back in the day. 0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:16.320 How can we forget that? 0:18:17.080 --> 0:18:20.040 One of my favorite scenes in that Remember the scene 0:18:20.359 --> 0:18:22.920 it was the first Indiana Jones movie when someone asked 0:18:22.920 --> 0:18:26.320 Indy what he's going to do next, and he replied, 0:18:26.560 --> 0:18:29.639 I don't know. I'm making it up as we go along, 0:18:29.800 --> 0:18:32.720 right Like there's something like that, I don't know. I'm 0:18:32.720 --> 0:18:36.320 making this up as I go not that I'm making 0:18:36.320 --> 0:18:39.359 it up. We do have some tentative outlines of what 0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:42.840 we're planning on doing. There is a wild card that 0:18:43.000 --> 0:18:46.800 could change things dramatically that I'm not going to talk 0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:49.639 about publicly here other than just some stuff that's in 0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:53.600 the works that if things break right and it's like 0:18:53.640 --> 0:18:55.480 the Hail Mary pass in the back of the end 0:18:55.560 --> 0:18:58.520 zone and you win the game. I'm not expecting that 0:18:58.560 --> 0:19:01.800 to happen. But the reasons I'm not announcing anything is 0:19:01.800 --> 0:19:06.280 because that's still a possibility, so I'll let you know, Reggie. 0:19:06.359 --> 0:19:09.040 As you know, also, Danny, I am not afraid to 0:19:09.119 --> 0:19:12.640 promote things. I am not afraid to just end up 0:19:12.960 --> 0:19:16.200 going crazy and promoting stuff. So well, not at all. 0:19:16.840 --> 0:19:20.760 You'll let you know. Conspiracy theory Carl Right, since says, Hey, bandon, Danny, 0:19:21.359 --> 0:19:25.480 I enjoy the podcast. While I am drinking my coffee, 0:19:26.160 --> 0:19:28.960 he says, I know this isn't coast to coast, but 0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:30.960 you know what that means. He wants to talk coast 0:19:30.960 --> 0:19:34.840 to coast. Do you believe the entire universe is connected? 0:19:34.880 --> 0:19:38.960 He sent story, Danny. He says scientists are baffled after 0:19:39.000 --> 0:19:44.440 spotting the eye of Sourn in deep space. He sent 0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:49.880 this story conspiracy theory Carl I, who did not say 0:19:49.880 --> 0:19:53.159 where he's from. I don't know where he's listening, but 0:19:53.480 --> 0:19:55.840 he says the Eye of Soren is an integral part 0:19:56.160 --> 0:19:59.120 of the Lord of the Rings series, and he says 0:19:59.280 --> 0:20:02.879 experts have d tilled a similarly terrifying vision in real life. 0:20:04.160 --> 0:20:07.719 It says the uh, this is from deep space and 0:20:07.760 --> 0:20:10.040 I don't know this.

It kind of looks 0:20:18.119 --> 0:20:22.040 like when a woman's pregnant and early on in the 0:20:22.080 --> 0:20:24.040 pregnancy and you kind of look at the you know, 0:20:24.200 --> 0:20:26.959 the little thing that's gonna be a baby, but it's not. 0:20:27.040 --> 0:20:29.120 It's pretty small and you can't really make it out. 0:20:29.400 --> 0:20:32.400 It kind of looks like that. But this is like patternicity. 0:20:33.440 --> 0:20:36.800 This thing is you know scientists fire talking about an ultrasound. 0:20:37.040 --> 0:20:39.919 It's an ultra yeah, exactly, ultrasound.
