He's the last remnants 0:00:09.200 --> 0:00:12.480 of the Old Republic, a soul 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 --> 0:00:19.440 rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow to the Clearinghouse 0:00:19.480 --> 0:00:23.200 of hot takes, break free for something special. The Fifth 0:00:23.200 --> 0:00:30.680 Hour with Ben Maller starts right now. 0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:33.920 In the air everywhere. The Fifth Hour with Me, Ben 0:00:34.000 --> 0:00:37.680 Maller and Danny G Radio. It's Saturday, hanging out with you. 0:00:37.720 --> 0:00:41.000 It's the twenty fourth day of May. We are back 0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:44.600 at it, slaving away on the weekend, the hot microphones 0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:50.400 in the pods studio, ready to bloviate all day long. 0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:53.360 Well actually like maybe the next thirty forty minutes. Who 0:00:53.400 --> 0:00:55.560 knows how long this will be. But Dany, we were 0:00:55.600 --> 0:00:58.040 back at it and last night. How about those New 0:00:58.120 --> 0:01:01.760 York Knicks home court advantage? Baby, the Knicks are They're 0:01:01.760 --> 0:01:03.840 not gonna lose back to back games at home, Danny G. 0:01:04.400 --> 0:01:08.280 No way. The Indiana Pacers cannot win back to back 0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:12.920 games at Madison Square Garden, the world's most famous arena. 0:01:12.440 --> 0:01:18.560 Unless yeah, yikes, as you would say. They vomited all 0:01:18.600 --> 0:01:20.080 over themselves, rode. 0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:22.800 The vomit commet. They sucked at a time you cannot suck. 0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:25.720 It was a tie game going to the fourth court. 0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:28.760 They were tied at eighty one, and then in the 0:01:28.800 --> 0:01:33.000 fourth quarter, did not get her done. Did not get 0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:35.959 her done by the skin on their chinny chinchin the 0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:39.800 Knicks blow it. And so the Pacers, oh my god, 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:43.119 they have a choke hold. They have an absolute choke hold. 0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:47.080 I see what you did there on this series. 0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:50.120 Here, and how about the Pacers the winning last night. 0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:53.120 They're so good on the road in these playoffs, and 0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:57.080 the Knicks are three and five at home in the playoffs. 0:01:57.360 --> 0:02:01.240 No, I know they're gotta losing regular Tyrese Haliburton. In 0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:04.000 the first half, I was flipping back and forth because 0:02:04.000 --> 0:02:05.560 I may or may not have had some bets on 0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:08.519 the on the on the baseball, but I'm watching the 0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:12.480 basketball and he was horrific. Every time I flipped over, 0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:16.040 he was missing a shot or not making the right pass, 0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:18.760 and it was it was not not good. He's one 0:02:18.800 --> 0:02:21.640 of seven at halftime. Now, one of those at the 0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:24.919 end was just like a throwaway three point shot. Uh, 0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:26.880 you know, to try to beat the buzzer, but still 0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:28.400 he was. He was terrible in the first half. And 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:32.760 then Indiana to win a game with Halliburton, who's been 0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:36.919 their guy. Not all that great, but it's it's legend 0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:40.200 and as long as this guy plays, he will always 0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:46.160 be associated with Marcel and Brooklyn. Pascal Sea cum Uh 0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:53.920 Pascal Siakam was outstanding, uh for the for the Pacers 0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:56.800 obviously me led led thirty nine point twenty three of 0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:58.680 them in the first half. 0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:02.239 Yes, and doesn't see it come look like he's fifty 0:03:02.320 --> 0:03:02.800 years old. 0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:05.799 That is still one of the greatest things I've ever had. Yeah, 0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:07.560 he's a little older, but you know, one of the 0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:11.200 greatest soundbites ever. And so there you go. And there's 0:03:11.240 --> 0:03:16.320 not like one person to blame per se for the Knicks. 0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:19.480 You could say Jalen Brunson. He did have ten points 0:03:19.480 --> 0:03:20.320 in the fourth quarter. 0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:23.520 Ah, those last couple of threes he shot up were 0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:24.440 ugly looking. 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:27.440 Yeah, And there was that inbounds play where he got 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:28.560 called for the foul I. 0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:31.240 Think it was, but the taste holding that jersey. 0:03:31.480 --> 0:03:33.680 Yeah, So I mean there were a couple of things there. 0:03:34.120 --> 0:03:35.800 But the Knicks did not have a lead in the 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:38.320 fourth court. There were no lead changes. It was tied 0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:40.640 once obviously the start of the quarter, but there were 0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:44.600 no lead changes. And so Indiana, I have no skin 0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:47.040 in the game. I liked I like the way the 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:50.840 Pacers are playing, So whatever, that's. 0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:53.880 What I feel like. You know, Brunson that first three 0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:56.000 he chucked up at the end of the game, felt 0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:57.960 like he really rushed that shot because he thought they 0:03:57.960 --> 0:03:59.080 were going to foul him. 0:03:59.520 --> 0:04:02.800 Yeah. Well, the thing about the Pacers, though, watching the 0:04:02.840 --> 0:04:06.119 way they play, it's like they didn't have that Andrew 0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:10.400 Nemhart didn't go crazy, Nate Smith didn't really none of 0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:15.600 those secondary guys. It was Siakam. And then the other 0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:18.200 thing that stood out with the Pacers is the fact 0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:21.920 that they they just they don't do anything terribly on offense. 0:04:22.080 --> 0:04:26.359 You know, it's like they're good in every phase, just 0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:30.080 about it. It's pretty crazy anyway. So that's the basketball. 0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:34.080 How about the Yankees last night losing to the Colorado Rockies. Wow, 0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:37.800 how much money do you think the sports book on 0:04:37.960 --> 0:04:41.960 the low information fan that saw all those stories written 0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:44.640 about how the Rockies and they are the Rockies off 0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:46.800 to the worst fifty game start in the history of 0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:50.880 professional baseball and the mighty New York Yankees came into 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:55.280 Coors Field on a random Friday night in May last night, 0:04:55.400 --> 0:05:00.360 and how about that. The Yankees go down and Aaron 0:05:00.440 --> 0:05:02.320 Judge hit a home run and the Yankees still lose. 0:05:02.320 --> 0:05:05.000 That's the ninth win of the year for the Rockies. 0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:07.960 We're on the holiday weekend. Normally, this big holiday weekend, 0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:11.440 Monday is always the day where you're supposed to look 0:05:11.480 --> 0:05:15.239 at the baseball standings, and that's like the first major 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:17.919 point in the baseball season where you're like, are you good, 0:05:19.160 --> 0:05:21.560 are you bad? Are you a contender? Are you a pretender? 0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:25.560 Like all that stuff, and you know, it's just one random, 0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:28.000 random day. There was some weird stuff though, like the 0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:32.919 Red Sox we're actually trailing after five innings to the 0:05:32.960 --> 0:05:37.160 Orioles and ended up winning nineteen to five in their 0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:40.640 game at Filway. So there was some some wacky stuff 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:45.320 that took place. And on this pod, as we hang 0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:47.200 out together, we're just you know, kind of see what's 0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:49.479 going on in the world and whatnot. We have. Later on, 0:05:49.640 --> 0:05:54.120 we'll have the very popular phrase of the week, the 0:05:54.400 --> 0:05:57.680 phrase of the week that'll be coming up a little 0:05:57.680 --> 0:06:00.040 bit later tomorrow. We've got the mail bag, don't I 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.760 don't forget though I wanted to mention this. We are 0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:09.200 less than a week away from all Card. The first 0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:12.240 ever Canadian Mallard Meet and Greed will be coming up 0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:18.400 this Thursday, Thursday, Thursday Thursday. And if you have somehow 0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:22.120 been in the dark on this, you have not been 0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:26.000 paying attention. Bad job by you. But we're going to 0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:30.279 be hanging out together on Thursday night. I'm very excited 0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:34.080 to meet Nico, who's the hostess with the Moses for this, 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:37.520 putting this whole thing together. But we've got the Malord 0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:41.000 Meet and greet. We're coming up this Thursday. Were taking 0:06:41.000 --> 0:06:45.240 place on the twenty ninth of May at Courtside on 0:06:45.520 --> 0:06:49.360 Maine from seven to ten, maybe even earlier. It depends 0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:51.320 on my flight where I'm flying, and we're all flying 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:54.080 in that day. Lorrain is going to be there and 0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:56.680 Cooper Loop and I'll be flying in and my flight's 0:06:56.680 --> 0:07:00.120 a little bit later than their flights, so we will see. 0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:01.919 Well everything they have time to do the weed before 0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:02.400 you get there. 0:07:02.480 --> 0:07:06.200 You can have a wonderful time, have a wonderful time. 0:07:06.800 --> 0:07:09.760 So we're gonna be the seven to ten o'clock. Coop 0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:12.840 claims he's gonna leave early. Coop says he'll take up 0:07:13.320 --> 0:07:16.720 I plan on staying if there's people there, I plan 0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:20.360 on staying till till ten o'clock. So Malard meat Greek Thursday, 0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:23.360 if you're obviously in British Columbia, if you're within reasonable 0:07:23.440 --> 0:07:29.480 driving distance. I've gotten some RSVPs from Washington, Idaho. We'll 0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:31.920 see these people actually show up. You don't need a RSVP. 0:07:32.120 --> 0:07:34.280 This is not like you don't need an invitation for 0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:36.720 this thing, but we'd love to meet you. It's gonna 0:07:36.760 --> 0:07:38.840 be a lot of fun. And the other event we 0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:41.280 were supposed to have, which is that Saturday a week 0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:46.040 from today, got canceled because the Vancouver white Caps there's 0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:49.840 some some weird thing they're playing in Mexico this weekend 0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:52.280 or this coming weekend, I guess, And so there's no 0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:55.240 game in Vancouver. So we have nothing else planned at 0:07:55.240 --> 0:07:58.680 this point. It's getting late in the game, so if 0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:02.040 anything else happens, we will we will let you know. 0:08:02.840 --> 0:08:05.920 We will let you know what's going on with that. Anyway, 0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:12.360 Later on we will discuss more from the science world, 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:14.280 because we haven't done much science. 0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:16.320 Oh, we haven't done scientifical in a while. 0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:18.120 Yeah, yeah, we've not done that in a while. 0:08:18.800 --> 0:08:22.480 Also, a pickleball fight that has gone viral and I 0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:26.080 actually texted the clip to you. So as we get 0:08:26.120 --> 0:08:28.040 through this plot, I'd like you to take a look 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:31.600 at this hilarious video and before the show is over, 0:08:31.800 --> 0:08:33.960 I'll let everybody know where they can go look at it. 0:08:34.280 --> 0:08:37.439 Yeah, you old pick a ball. I saw. The Belichick 0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:43.439 story took another turn yesterday as Jordaan Hudson sent out 0:08:43.480 --> 0:08:50.120 a message calling Pablo Torres reporting defamatory, but then she 0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:54.240 deleted the post. I'm a little confused by that, Like 0:08:54.840 --> 0:08:58.200 you can't really delete anything on social media. It's once 0:08:58.240 --> 0:08:58.800 it's o And. 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:01.240 I'm so sick of that couple. They're the new Travis 0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:06.960 Kelcey Taylor Swift to me because every single date. Huh dude, 0:09:07.000 --> 0:09:09.160 there's a thing about Jordan every day. 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:12.440 Yeah no, I hey, listen every day because People magazine. 0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:15.959 It's a People magazine story. It's like tabloids. Yes, it's 0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:17.120 getting it's getting traction. 0:09:17.240 --> 0:09:21.600 The name of his boat one ring plus eight or whatever. 0:09:21.440 --> 0:09:24.720 Which is the ultimate like the Bill Belichick's the new 0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:27.960 definition of whipped. If like you're putting a what a 0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:32.720 cheerleading championship ring from a Division five school in Maine 0:09:32.840 --> 0:09:35.320 up against the Super Bowls and all that. I mean, 0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:38.960 my god, uh, I just I just like when people 0:09:39.040 --> 0:09:42.680 de lead stuff on social media thinking well, no one 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:44.959 else see that, and then it's like in on all 0:09:44.960 --> 0:09:47.719 the websites they have the screenshot, like People Magazine and 0:09:47.760 --> 0:09:49.960 all that, and so it's just I get it. I 0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:52.040 get a kick out of that. It does seem like also, 0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:55.520 Aaron Rodgers, I saw this yesterday. Aaron Rodgers. I guess 0:09:55.600 --> 0:10:00.440 is he's still playing this weird game. But he heina 0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:03.440 confirmed indirectly that he's going to play for the Steelers, 0:10:03.440 --> 0:10:06.800 although he did it in your passive aggressive way that 0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:12.560 he often does. Rogers was speaking at some event in Austin. 0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:15.599 He's been in Austin. He was on the Rogan podcast. 0:10:15.880 --> 0:10:18.000 I don't know who listens to that, but he's He 0:10:18.080 --> 0:10:21.800 was hanging out at a public event in Austin and 0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:27.160 some kid, always the kids, some kid asked if there 0:10:27.200 --> 0:10:29.880 was any chance that he could sign with the Chicago Bears, 0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:33.320 which is completely reasonable. The Bears went out and got 0:10:33.400 --> 0:10:36.120 Caleb Williams. That's completely reasonable. That they would they would 0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:40.640 add they would add Aaron Rodgers after that anyway, Rogers, 0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:43.880 he said, no, he told the kid, but I believe 0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:46.640 there's a team that might play in Chicago this year, 0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:51.120 a road trip. He says. I love Chicago, though, he said, 0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:54.480 way more than they love me. Great relationship, all that stuff. 0:10:54.480 --> 0:10:57.839 So immediately we all went to the Steelers schedule and 0:10:58.000 --> 0:10:59.719 ding Ning Ning ning Ning. If you look at the 0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:03.520 steel schedule, they are on the road against the Bears 0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:11.520 in week twelve, November twenty third. So wow. Now Rogers 0:11:11.520 --> 0:11:16.640 claimed this week that the reason he has not signed 0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:19.439 is because he's got sick people in his world. They 0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:22.640 have like the cancer and all that stuff. And I 0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:25.440 still believe my conspiracy that a big part of this 0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:32.320 is he got killed, absolutely killed last year when he 0:11:32.440 --> 0:11:35.400 was with the Jets, and he went to Egypt and 0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:39.520 missed some practice. And so I figure, like, if he 0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:42.760 doesn't sign with the Steelers, nobody can say, hey, you're 0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:45.160 bad job by you for missing this or missing that. 0:11:45.280 --> 0:11:49.440 So as long as he waits, we're almost into June. 0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:53.640 Though this is the last our last Saturday, right, I was, 0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:55.840 I guess our second to last set.

So we're heading into the 0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:11.920 last the last week in the month of May and 0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:15.880 then training camps in July. Mid July uses when training 0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:19.800 camp starts, so we're really not that far. We're far off. 0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:23.360 What's the cutoff date? June fifteenth or something like that 0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:27.320 for the Steelers with Aaron Rodgers, we will find out. 0:12:27.920 --> 0:12:30.800 We have enjoyed the spit the phrase of the week, 0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:33.000 and why don't we get to this story about the 0:12:33.080 --> 0:12:36.760 brew haha involving the pickle right now? 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:42.280 Yeah, Ben, click on that. Our homie, Clay Travis switeted 0:12:42.320 --> 0:12:43.760 this out yesterday. 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:45.800 All right, Alumni Association Clay Travis. 0:12:45.960 --> 0:12:49.840 Yeah at Clay Travis. He says, I can't stop watching this. 0:12:50.360 --> 0:12:53.559 Leading with the high kick was bold, but bro, the 0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:57.960 running punch is the real star here. And his co 0:12:58.120 --> 0:13:02.160 host on The Limbaugh Show, Buck Sexton, has this video 0:13:02.200 --> 0:13:06.280 of these guys who were fighting during a pickleball game. 0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:10.760 After watching this video, I feel like Mike Tyson sexist 0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:16.640 to say, kicking like little girls sexist. But they look 0:13:16.720 --> 0:13:20.520 like they didn't even horse around with their siblings. I mean, 0:13:21.160 --> 0:13:24.080 one guy, you'll see he throws a running punch and 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:28.000 misses and falls flat on his face and rolls on 0:13:28.040 --> 0:13:31.680 his belly. The other guy does this weird kind of 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:36.240 kick where, man, you need to see this video. It's hilarious. 0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:39.160 I watched it, but the one probably ten times in 0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:39.640 a row. 0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:42.839 The guy with the green kind of the green shirt. 0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:46.600 There he's holding. There, he's holding the racket he did hit. 0:13:47.040 --> 0:13:49.440 He swung once with the racket. The guy in the 0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:52.280 blue shirt should have kept his racket. You don't drop 0:13:52.320 --> 0:13:53.200 your weapon. 0:13:52.920 --> 0:13:54.480 When you're going to I was gonna say, this is 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:56.640 why the NFL doesn't let you take your helmet off. 0:13:57.160 --> 0:13:59.600 Yeah yeah, well we had that. We what was his 0:13:59.679 --> 0:14:02.000 name for, Miles Garrett? Remember he went forward try to 0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:04.000 throw the help Yeah yeah, back. 0:14:03.840 --> 0:14:06.760 In the Remember famously was it Lyle Alzado who used 0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:09.000 his helmet as a weapon back in the day. Got 0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:12.839 the matter. The only male dominance in this video, whatsoever, 0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:16.080 is the guy swinging his racket to hit the other 0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:18.360 guy the blue The guy in the blue shirt on 0:14:18.400 --> 0:14:21.040 the ground. This is the kind of wimpy fight you 0:14:21.040 --> 0:14:23.320 would expect from pickleball players. 0:14:23.640 --> 0:14:26.120 Yeah, it was it. I wonder what they were fighting 0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:28.280 about that, Like, what what do you think the fight 0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:30.880 origin was? Was it a bet? Did they have a bet? 0:14:30.920 --> 0:14:36.000 Did somebody violate one of these sacred rules of pickleball? No? 0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:38.200 I bet you it was something really silly, like a 0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:39.640 ball being in or out. 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:43.840 Yeah, I've never played pickaball. Have you attempted pick a ball? 0:14:43.880 --> 0:14:46.280 I guess I'm old enough to play pickle ball. I'm 0:14:46.360 --> 0:14:48.640 of the age I should want to be into pickleball. 0:14:48.720 --> 0:14:51.080 Now I don't want to be into pickle ball. I 0:14:51.080 --> 0:14:55.520 have no interest in pickleball. I'm annoyed when I go 0:14:55.600 --> 0:14:59.640 by the park and see people playing pickleball. It's it's 0:15:00.320 --> 0:15:02.920 in where I live. There's some tennis courts and one 0:15:02.920 --> 0:15:05.040 of them has been turned into a pickleball court. So 0:15:05.080 --> 0:15:09.000 the whole thing annoying for me. But have you attempted 0:15:09.000 --> 0:15:10.440 the pickle ball to any of you gone out with 0:15:10.440 --> 0:15:12.720 the wife and had a nice night of pickleball? 0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:15.800 Yeah, we have a tennis court that's not too far. 0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:18.880 A few years ago, when it first was like the 0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:22.480 thing to try out took our kids up there and 0:15:22.760 --> 0:15:25.760 they had their pickleball rackets and a few pickleballs, and 0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:29.720 we tried it out. It's just like ghetto tennis. There 0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:30.000 you go. 0:15:30.120 --> 0:15:31.920 What happened? Remember a couple of years ago there were 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:35.520 stories about athletes buying pickleball teams. It was gonna be. 0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:36.560 Well that worked out? Well? 0:15:36.920 --> 0:15:39.320 Well, yeah, like whatever happened. Like they were all these 0:15:39.360 --> 0:15:41.920 stories that so and so is buying a pickle ball team, 0:15:41.960 --> 0:15:44.280 and these are gonna be like the next big thing 0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:47.880 is pickleball? Did I miss that? Is it already over? 0:15:47.960 --> 0:15:48.840 I feel like it's over. 0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:51.000 This video is so embarrassing. 0:15:51.880 --> 0:15:55.560 Oh yeah, yeah, all right, moving on from that, some 0:15:55.680 --> 0:15:59.200 hot pickleball. I know, Alf the alien opiners excide. He 0:15:59.240 --> 0:16:02.480 loves pickles, so I'm sure he's very very excited. We're 0:16:02.480 --> 0:16:07.880 doing hot Pickel talk on the radio, all right. The weekend, 0:16:07.920 --> 0:16:10.680 you know, the Life and Times of Malor and Danny 0:16:10.720 --> 0:16:15.560 g Radio. And this past weekend did not leave the 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:18.200 house other than to go to dinner with a with 0:16:18.280 --> 0:16:20.920 a friend of mine who like a late birthday dinner 0:16:20.960 --> 0:16:25.800 type thing. But my buddy, he was upset because he said, 0:16:25.800 --> 0:16:28.040 you go here where you want for dinner. Now, we 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:29.800 don't eat a lot. We don't eat out a lot 0:16:29.880 --> 0:16:33.080 these days. Been cooking a lot. Like enjoy cooking, so 0:16:33.320 --> 0:16:35.440 would rather just eat at home. It's cheaper, you can 0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:38.240 make whatever you want, and what's around in the kitchen. 0:16:38.560 --> 0:16:40.040 So my buddies like, go anywhere we want to. So 0:16:40.160 --> 0:16:43.720 this this Italian place that I like, and I'm a 0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:46.640 big fan of the fetichini alfredo, and so I was say, 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:48.440 I want to go. This Italian place is really good, 0:16:48.800 --> 0:16:51.240 and he's like, no, that's you should go to a steakhouse. 0:16:51.800 --> 0:16:54.440 And he was Danny. The guy was busting my balls, 0:16:54.840 --> 0:16:57.040 saying that I made a poor decision because he was 0:16:57.040 --> 0:16:58.960 going to buy dinner and I should have gone to 0:16:59.000 --> 0:17:02.480 a steakhouse. But I wanted Italian. I didn't want a steak. 0:17:02.800 --> 0:17:04.640 And if I wanted a steak, I could have gotten 0:17:04.680 --> 0:17:07.240 a steak at the you know, the Italian restaurant had steak. 0:17:07.280 --> 0:17:10.800 But I didn't want steak. I wanted the fetichini alfredo. 0:17:11.320 --> 0:17:15.240 That's what I want. I cooked mine the proper way, 0:17:15.280 --> 0:17:18.920 butterfly cut, and then I cook it well done. That 0:17:18.920 --> 0:17:21.320 me and Rob Parker enjoy our steak the same way. 0:17:21.560 --> 0:17:26.840 And there's something. It's not a waste. The customer is 0:17:26.840 --> 0:17:31.040 always right. That's the proper way to enjoy a steak. 0:17:31.080 --> 0:17:33.359 But the point is, I didn't want a steak. I 0:17:33.400 --> 0:17:37.600 wanted pasta. And why would you invite me to a 0:17:37.640 --> 0:17:41.480 birthday dinner and then bust my balls because I didn't 0:17:41.520 --> 0:17:43.439 pick the right restaurant. You know what I believe it is. 0:17:43.840 --> 0:17:47.120 I think he wanted steak and he assumed, since it's 0:17:47.119 --> 0:17:49.679 a birthday meal, that he would we would go to 0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:53.480 a steakhouse, and that I screwed up his plans because 0:17:53.560 --> 0:17:55.960 I ended up choosing an Italian restaurant. But he really 0:17:55.960 --> 0:17:58.320 wanted a steak. So it's really more about him, not 0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:02.040 about me. That's my theory. It's my my gambling buddy 0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:07.800 Hunter who give me a hard time. It's ridiculous, absolutely pathetic. 0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:11.600 What did he order off the menu that uh he ordered? 0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:14.639 I don't know. I had the fetichin the alfredo with 0:18:14.680 --> 0:18:16.920 the UH, and then I had I had the it 0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:19.600 is where I had a combo chicken parm fetichi in 0:18:19.640 --> 0:18:22.760 the alfredo, So I had the chicken from the chicken 0:18:22.960 --> 0:18:26.080 parm and then I had the fetichine alfredo. He had. 0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:30.000 It was some kind of meat dish, but it wasn't 0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:32.840 a steak. I forget, and then we had. 0:18:32.760 --> 0:18:34.600 The you don't even know. So this sounds like it 0:18:34.640 --> 0:18:36.560 went back to all about being about you. 0:18:37.200 --> 0:18:39.320 Well I didn't. I don't care what other people eat. 0:18:39.640 --> 0:18:41.720 I don't judge. See, this is the problem. And there's 0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:43.440 a lot of people that judge, Like you know, some 0:18:43.480 --> 0:18:45.680 people and I'm not gonna name names here, but sometimes 0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:47.680 like if I ordered a steak a certain way, there's 0:18:47.680 --> 0:18:49.960 some people that are criticized the way I order a steak, 0:18:50.280 --> 0:18:52.560 and I'm like, well, why would anyone do that because 0:18:52.600 --> 0:18:55.119 it's my steak. They're not eating the steak. It's my steak. 0:18:55.280 --> 0:18:57.720 It's what I want, you know what. You would give 0:18:57.720 --> 0:18:59.480 me a hard touch of well, you know, ruin a 0:18:59.520 --> 0:19:02.359 steak well done, And I'm like, no, no, no, I 0:19:02.560 --> 0:19:04.879 just I don't worry about what you eat. You can go. 0:19:04.960 --> 0:19:07.080 I don't care. If my friend eats dog food, I 0:19:07.160 --> 0:19:09.159 don't care. I'm not eating it. I'm not going to 0:19:09.240 --> 0:19:11.320 take anything off his plate. He can have the freaking 0:19:11.400 --> 0:19:15.359 dog food. Knock yourself out, you know, chow chow pow wow. 0:19:15.480 --> 0:19:18.920 I don't care. I'm just saying I'm just I'm putting 0:19:19.000 --> 0:19:21.520 that out now. One thing I did make last weekend, 0:19:21.960 --> 0:19:23.800 which is rare. I think I've bet it one other 0:19:23.840 --> 0:19:29.080 time and it is truly without a doubt. And I 0:19:29.119 --> 0:19:30.919 can say this from the bottom of my heart as 0:19:31.080 --> 0:19:35.760 having eaten it last week. Enjoy the spit. Enjoy the spit. 0:19:35.920 --> 0:19:41.320 The culinary journey continues and we return to a favorite 0:19:41.400 --> 0:19:43.960 on the whole menu which we've only made one other time, 0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:51.040 some delicious chicken shwarma. Very exciting and you've not had 0:19:51.560 --> 0:19:54.240 I think has everyone had chicken shwarma at this point? 0:19:54.280 --> 0:19:54.440 Now? 0:19:54.440 --> 0:19:56.480 Should we do? We need to tell people what that is. 0:19:56.480 --> 0:19:58.000 I feel like people should know what that is. But 0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:02.040 it's very popular in the Middle East, right It's like 0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:05.520 a street food in places like Turkey and Israel and 0:20:05.600 --> 0:20:08.639 Iraq and place like that, and anyway, it's not that 0:20:08.680 --> 0:20:10.600 hard to make. It just takes a long time. You 0:20:10.600 --> 0:20:12.679 get to get a spit. My wife got one on 0:20:12.760 --> 0:20:16.800 like the Amazon, and so we got that. The traditionally 0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:19.919 it's you know, it's just you spice the meat and 0:20:19.960 --> 0:20:24.160 you stack it, and the key part is to cut 0:20:24.160 --> 0:20:26.879 it the right way. You gotta cut it thin cut 0:20:27.080 --> 0:20:30.760 slice shaved off meat and you just mix together a 0:20:30.760 --> 0:20:33.840 bunch of garlic and spices and a bunch of lemon 0:20:33.960 --> 0:20:38.119 and some olive oil. And it takes a couple hours 0:20:38.160 --> 0:20:41.080 to make in a traditional oven. And the good thing 0:20:41.119 --> 0:20:43.440 is there's always a lot of extra. And I don't 0:20:43.440 --> 0:20:45.560 normally eat leftover as Danny, as you know, I'm not 0:20:45.600 --> 0:20:50.160 a leftover guy. I don't believe in leftovers. However, this 0:20:50.200 --> 0:20:51.280 is the exception of the rule. 0:20:51.320 --> 0:20:54.959 This in pizza, I will eat because the flavor settles 0:20:55.040 --> 0:20:55.520 in on this. 0:20:55.840 --> 0:20:56.040 Yeah. 0:20:56.080 --> 0:21:00.600 Yeah, it's really outstanding. So that's good. You know, probably 0:21:00.600 --> 0:21:02.960 make more of it at some point this weekend, so 0:21:03.160 --> 0:21:06.439 we'll we'll see what happens with that. But that was 0:21:06.480 --> 0:21:10.600 the big culinary event of the weekend last weekend. Very exciting. 0:21:10.960 --> 0:21:15.639 And yeah, I'm also proud of the magic box that 0:21:15.720 --> 0:21:17.600 I have that I'm able to watch all these games 0:21:17.640 --> 0:21:20.720 with on the TV. I've told you about the magic box. 0:21:20.760 --> 0:21:24.199 You've chosen, You've chosen to avoid the magic box. But 0:21:24.640 --> 0:21:27.439 I've gotten so much use out of the magic box, Danny, 0:21:27.920 --> 0:21:31.399
