Speaker 1: month of April, and Danny g hanging out with me

17
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 1: as we are in NFL Draft. What's the phrase for this, Danny,

18
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:04,759
Speaker 1: It's it's a long weekend. It used to be when

19
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: we were kids, it was just one day, but now

20
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 1: it's like a whole. It's been this way for a while.

21
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: It just goes all all weekend, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, a

22
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:14,919
Speaker 1: football palooza.

23
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 3: How awkward was Roger Goodell with Eminem Yeah?

24
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,759
Speaker 1: Well, he had Eminem as a human shield. How much

25
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: do you think the NFL paid Eminem Do you think

26
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 1: they gave him free tickets to the lines. He probably

27
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: got free tickets anyway to the Lions.

28
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 3: He didn't even deserve his paycheck if that's the case,

29
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 3: because I mean he should have freestyled or something. He

30
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 3: just said, what up Detroit? Anybody could have did that.

31
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, they could have blown me, and I would have

32
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: done a better job. I would have thrown in MotorCity.

33
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: I would have thrown in you know, you know the

34
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: some of the other things. Is it the three one three?

35
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: I believe Detroit is the three one threes like stuff

36
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: like that. Come on, Pippin, get your tims on. Had

37
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 1: some fun with it. But yeah, it was the other

38
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: thing too, about the draft. I mean, there were a

39
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: lot of the subplot stuff other than just the meat

40
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: and potatoes of who to pick and all that. But

41
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: the thing about the draft the crowd. There was a

42
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: massive amount of people there. They said there were two

43
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy five thousand people. Detroit as a city

44
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: has a population of about six hundred and forty thousand people.

45
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: The math on these crowd estimates I said it on

46
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: the Overnight Show a few hours ago, and it's like

47
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: they just throw numbers out and just gets repeated. Nobody

48
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: like questions any of the numbers. It's wild.

49
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,679
Speaker 3: I like the fact though, that you would have went

50
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 3: be rabbit. You would have had everybody put their hands up.

51
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, well yeah, sure man. I would have served Detroit pizza,

52
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: which I didn't even know there was a thing until

53
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, when I think it was

54
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 1: was it Pizza Hut? Somebody started doing commercials Detroit style pizza,

55
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: and I was like, what the f is that? I

56
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: know about New York style peace, I know about Chicago pizza.

57
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: I'd never even heard of Detroit style pizza until a

58
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: few years ago. And I'm like a middle aged guy,

59
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: and I'm like, where did that come from? Detroit? Did

60
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 1: they just make that up to sell pizza at Pizza

61
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,119
Speaker 1: or something? I was like, where did that come?

62
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 3: That's a good point. I was talking to Alex, the vegan.

63
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 1: Who and I didn't realize he was still working there.

64
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,119
Speaker 3: I had no idea, right, he takes more days off

65
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 3: than anyone I've ever met in my life. But he

66
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 3: was telling me he agrees with me Whenever our job

67
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 3: gets pizza, they go down the street to that New

68
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 3: York style place and they get that really thin, not

69
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 3: crispy pizza and it.

70
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: Flocks very expensive. And the biggest part is they're big pieces,

71
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: but a large pie is very expensive and you get

72
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: about seven or eight pieces or something. I mean, you

73
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: get hardly any pizza.

74
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, Mulberry I think is the name of it.

75
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, something like that. Yeah, I mean it's good if

76
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: you're into that kind of pizza, it's good. But it's

77
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: not for a radio station. It doesn't really work.

78
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 3: He looked at me the other day because there were

79
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 3: some of those sloppy floppies on the counter in the

80
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 3: Blue kitchen, and he said, why don't they ever get

81
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 3: a good Chicago pie? Why don't always get this flimsy pizza?

82
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: And there is a deep dish place that opened not

83
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: far away from our studio, like a Chicago deep dish

84
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,359
Speaker 1: pizza place is in that area in the San Fernando Valley,

85
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 1: So they don't they don't go there, you know, you

86
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: know why they go to Mulberry Street. Danny. When Fox

87
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 1: Sports Radio opened the Great Annie Z, she would buy

88
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 1: pizza and that's where she bought it from because it

89
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 1: was the closest pizza place. And even though she's not

90
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 1: part of Fox Sports Radiomore, the people still buy the

91
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: pizza from the same damn place. Wild nobody changes.

92
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 3: Not the only thing I take credit for Ben.

93
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 1: By the way, today is National Pretzel Day, one of

94
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: the most important days on the calendar. National Pretzel Day. Amazing.

95
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 3: Go to boxing, food and sporting an event, food pretzel,

96
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 3: and Disneyland Mickey Mouse pretzel, hot melted cheddar cheese.

97
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. And when I back in the old days, we

98
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 1: used to go to the mall. They have these things

99
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: called the malls of them. Even now there's some outdoor malls,

100
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 1: but I'm talking of the old school like malls where

101
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,919
Speaker 1: they were all closed off. You'd walk around. It's like

102
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: you got to get a soft pretzel, right, you got

103
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: to get a pretzel or if you travel, pretzel solid meal.

104
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 1: Here's a fun fact on the pretzel, because I'm all

105
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: about the fun facts. If I don't give a fun fact,

106
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: alf the alien opiner will get very upset. The origin

107
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 1: of the pretzel dates back to the seventh century, and

108
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 1: we can thank the Catholic churches for the pretzel. The

109
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:50,239
Speaker 1: rule of abstinence and fasting during Lent were much stricter,

110
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: hard to believe in the seventh century, and they forbid

111
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 1: the Catholics from consuming dairy eggs or meat. Couldn't eat

112
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: any at and that led to the creation of the pretzel,

113
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: which was the perfect food to eat. You weren't violating

114
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: any of the draconian rules of the Catholic Church and

115
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 1: you could do what you want. So and there you go.

116
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:15,919
Speaker 1: You can thank them.

117
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 3: That also where the mustard packets came from, because you

118
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 3: couldn't dip it in melted cheese in that case.

119
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, well that was how we can pack. The Germans, right,

120
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: the Germans, the hard pretzel, the German thing, and they

121
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 1: said the k nodded. Here's another fun fact about the pretzel.

122
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,479
Speaker 1: The knodded shape of the pretzel became a symbol of

123
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 1: union in Switzerland in the sixteen hundreds. With weddings royal

124
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 1: couples featured pretzels to represent the bond in matrimony, tying

125
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: the knot. According to legend, that is where the phrase

126
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: tying the knot came from. About that, but that you

127
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: can smoke it. Tying the knot, you're saluting the pretzel.

128
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 1: Take that for data. Stupid, but I read it on

129
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: the internet. It must be true. But the heart pretzel,

130
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: that's actually a somewhat new Now. I'm not a big

131
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: heart pretzel guy, although occasionally I do enjoy the pretzel

132
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: stick with peanut butter. Solid combination, solid combination.

133
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 3: Oh yeah. And you know what's good, those flat hard pretzels.

134
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, those are good. Two. And the

135
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 1: historians of the pretzel, you imagine you grow up and

136
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 1: you want to be a firefighter or a police officer

137
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 1: or a soldier, and you become a historian of the pretzel.

138
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 1: They claim that the first hard pretzel is a relatively

139
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: new invention, and it was first created in Pennsylvania by

140
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: German immigrants, and Pennsylvania is the holy land in America

141
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: of the pretzel that we've had. Fats in Philadelphia sent

142
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: us a bunch of soft pretzels a while back and

143
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: they were amazing, just and we had to cook them

144
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: because they were not cooked otherwise terrible. But yeah, So

145
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: five hundred and fifty million dollars the annual worth of

146
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: the pretzel industry here in the United States. It's a

147
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: lot of yeah, a lot of pretzels, so I'm out

148
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: of fun facts on pretzels. On this podcast, We've got

149
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: a little Southern charm one take Mallor, and I guess

150
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: some other stuff. We'll see if we have time to

151
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,079
Speaker 1: get to all that. But I wanted to start with

152
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: this and this is a big announcement. I saved it

153
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 1: for the podcast. I teased it a little bit on

154
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,920

Speaker 1: I'm going to drop this right here on the podcast

157
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 1: because if you listen to this podcast, you are not

158
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: a poop ed. You are a VIP in the Malard Militia.

159
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 1: And for the first time this year, and for the

160
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: first time in the history of the radio show, almost

161
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: twenty five years of broadcasting on Fox. I can't believe

162
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: it's been that long. We're not that far away from

163
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 1: that magical number. But the problem is I miss six

164
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: months in twenty six days because the company got rid

165
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 1: of me. But it's been a while, so we are

166
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: holding here's the announcement. Do you have a drum roll, Danny?

167
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 1: Can you get me in the mood with a drum roll?

168
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 3: Yeah? Let me beat on my chest, here we go.

169
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 1: Okay, drum, dumb, drum.

170
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 3: All right.

171
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 1: For the first time in the history of the show,

172
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,439
Speaker 1: and the first time this year, we will have a

173
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: Malor meet and greet below the Mason Dixon line. What

174
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: that's right? We are headed to Dixie for a Malor

175
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 1: meet and greet. Why, Danny, I'll tell you why because

176
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: I have to go there because my niece is graduating

177
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: from college in South Carolina. I've never been to South Carolina.

178
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: I never thought I would go to South Carolina. But

179
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 1: here we are. I'm gonna go, and it's a place

180
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,199
Speaker 1: I've never been. I don't know much about it. If

181
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,559
Speaker 1: you know anything about it, let me know. I've done

182
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: a little research. But here's the deal. So I am

183
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: Uncle Benny, and I will be in the state of

184
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: South Carolina. Actually gonna be driving all over North Carolina

185
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: and South Carolina, but I'm gonna be in town for

186
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: a hoot and nanny of a party. My brother both

187
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 1: my brothers are gonna be there. I'll be in town

188
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 1: and I always try to meet the people when I'm

189
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: in a place I don't normally go, and I would

190
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 1: love to meet you. I'm going to be in Charleston,

191
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 1: South Carolina. I'm gonna give you the details on this.

192
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: I do want to tip the headphones to a big

193
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 1: p one, a guy that listens to this podcast and

194
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 1: actually admits it, at least to me, Dale from Charleston.

195
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: So thank you, Dale, I appreciate. I have course finded

196
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,559
Speaker 1: with Dale a couple of times I had mentioned on

197
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 1: this podcast, Danny, I was going to be in South

198
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,479
Speaker 1: Carolina and I was looking for a place in Charleston.

199
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 1: Dale answered the call. There were a couple other people

200
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: that answered as well. But Dale, he's my guy in

201
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: Charleston because he knows people. He's my boots on the

202
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 1: ground and as a made man, he knows where I

203
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: needed to go, and he knew somebody. Dale actually is

204
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: from our neck of the woods. Dan, he's from California's

205
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: from Orange County and Brea and he moved to Charleston

206
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago.

207
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 3: So nice, Nice. My car got broken into it in

208
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 3: Brea one time.

209
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 1: There's a cheesecake factory in Brea, if I remember. But

210
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 1: he used to listen to the first hour of the

211
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 1: Overnight Show on his way home from work. He used

212
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: to work at a bar. Now he listens to the

213
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: last half hour of the radio show live because he's

214
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 1: driving to work doing the early commute, and he says

215
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 1: he does listen up. This is the podcast for the

216
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 1: rest of the show. But here are the details. Okay,

217
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 1: so Malard meet and Green. I have no idea if

218
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: anyone's going to show up. I have no concept to

219
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 1: how many people we have listening in South Carolina and

220
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 1: that part of North Carolina, so there might be nobody there.

221
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 1: It might just mean me and Dale hanging out, which

222
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 1: I'm fine with. Dale seems like a cool guy. We'll

223
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 1: have a good time. I hope there's some others that

224
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: show up. I know Jerome and Charleston has been calling

225
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 1: the show, and we've had a few other callers from there.

226
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: So the way this is going to work, we will

227
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: be there the when. The when is on Friday, May tenth,

228
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 1: so we're still a couple weeks away from this Friday

229
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: May tenth. It'll be from three o'clock to five o'clock.

230
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: Obviously Eastern time, because we'll be on Eastern time. And

231
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: where this is going to happen. Pay close attention. My

232
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,079
Speaker 1: father's mustache.

233
00:12:58,559 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 3: What's the name of the place.

234
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 1: Well, No, that's the place. See, that's that's the magic.

235
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,559
Speaker 1: Does that not sound like a great place? I already

236
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 1: looked at the menu. I scattered what I want, so

237
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: I'm happy it's my father's mustache. But it's the James

238
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,559
Speaker 1: Island location. Now Dale boots on the ground. Dale tells

239
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: me that there's another location out on the peninsula, but

240
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 1: that is or on Mount Pleasant rather Mount Pleasant. That's

241
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,199
Speaker 1: not the one. This is a different one. The one

242
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: we're doing the event at is on James Island. It's

243
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 1: one seven three nine Maybank Highway in Charleston, South Carolina.

244
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: And I'm told it's about three miles west of downtown Charleston.

245
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 1: So that's that's what I'm told. And there's again another location.

246
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 1: I know it can be a little confusing, so just

247
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 1: the one we're at will be on James Island. Why

248
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: are we doing this because I'm I'm a glutton for punishment. No,

249
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 1: I want to meet people. I've alway tried to do

250
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:01,959
Speaker 1: this over the years. I've had a lot of these

251
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 1: things in random cities. We've done several in Boston, did

252
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 1: one in Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Appleton, Wisconsin because my brother lives

253
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 1: in that area of Wisconsin. Did Seattle. We've done a

254
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: bunch in La Bakersfield, we did that. I'm trying to

255
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: think where else. I know I'm missing some that we

256
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: did Anyway, in Chicago. I met some listeners in Chicago

257
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: Kansas City, so we've done a few. Man that these

258
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: have added up over the years. But anyway, I'm looking

259
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: forward to South Carolina. And if you've been listening or

260
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: you're you know somebody else who might live there that's

261
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: a fan of the show, maybe the podcast. They don't

262
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 1: hear this whatever, who I saw They have French onion soup.

263
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: Danny a big French onion soups. Guy looks pretty good.

264
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: I don't usually eat fish and chips. It appears they

265
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: have good fish and chips. They've got bangers and mash

266
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 1: and that that. I don't know about that. That sounds

267
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 1: like like an English show. Maybe it's an English restaurant,

268
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 1: like you're a.

269
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 3: Hey, I don't know, but.

270
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 1: It looks good. It is my kind of food. It's

271
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: like bar food mostly, and there's a couple of different locations,

272
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: but we'll beat the Mount Pleasant ones. So I'm looking

273
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: forward to it. Thanks again to Dale. We'll promote a

274
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 1: lot of this on the radio show this week. I'll

275
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: mention it, and I see they have chicken fingers, fried

276
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: mots around. These are all my favorite foods. These are

277
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 1: all my favorite foods. So it's really.

278
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 3: Mystically what nine year olds like to order from the

279
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 3: kids menu.

280
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 1: You could be jealous. You know you're jealous. You eat

281
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: your adult food. They have a deluxe grilled cheese. I

282
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 1: don't know about the tomato on there. I don't know

283
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: if I need that Shepherd's pie, not a big Shepherd's pie.

284
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 1: Too many vegetables, not big shepherd pie. Guy, they got

285
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 1: a Guinness stew. Let's see here, what else do they

286
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: have a lot of beer, a lot of good beer.

287
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:58,040
Speaker 1: So anyway, that's that's the deal. We'll be we'll be schmoozing,

288
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 1: hanging out again May tenth. You're getting this information before

289
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: anybody else here on the Fifth Hour podcast. Maybe Alfo

290
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: will drive down from Springfield and hang out with us,

291
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: and who knows our friend, what's the what's the numb

292
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: nuts name? I forget the guys. I'm trying to think. No,

293
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 1: I don't want him there. No, I'm a little concerned.

294
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: I don't think he's tech tech savvy enough to hear

295
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 1: the podcast. We're good. We're good on that, So that's

296
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: the event. Now, moving on from that, we mentioned in

297
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: a previous episode of this podcast, Danny that I know

298
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 1: the way to San Jose. We learned a thing or

299
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 1: two about adulting this past week. You might remember we

300
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 1: talked about the rental car. I picked up the rental

301
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 1: car and realized my driver's license was days away from expiring.

302
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: So I hopped on the DMV website. That's what an

303
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 1: adult do. I tried to pretend like I was my mom,

304
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 1: the grown up. You know. I hopped on the DMV website.

305
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:09,640
Speaker 1: I attempted to renew my license. You'd think this would

306
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: be a rather easy concept, because really, all the government

307
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 1: wants is your money. They don't really care whether you

308
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 1: know how to drive or not. They just want the money.

309
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 1: Much to my surprise, Much to my surprise, the California

310
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 1: Department of Motor Vehicles decided, you know what, let's bust

311
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: mallows balls. Let's make this a steeplechase. Rather than just

312
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: click a button, put your credit card in, get your

313
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 1: driver's license extended, No no, no no. I had to jump

314
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: through a bunch of Hulu hoops. It started out simple enough.

315
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: Once upon a time, a long long time ago. They

316
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: said I clicked on the website. I typed my information

317
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 1: and they said I needed to take a written test

318
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 1: to get my license rent it, and they said there

319
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,479
Speaker 1: was an online option. You can click on the button

320
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 1: and you can take the test online. I said, great,

321
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,199
Speaker 1: this is one wonderful this is what I would like.

322
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:02,639
Speaker 1: I would like to take the test. I don't have

323
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 1: to go anywhere. I could sit in my underwear and

324
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: I could take the test. Outstanding. So I clicked on it,

325
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 1: and it said, uh, you're not eligible for the test.

326
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: You can't take the test online. You have to make

327
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: an appointment and go in person. But then they said

328
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: there's this option. You can go to a DMV kiosk.

329
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: And they made it seem the way it was written, like, Okay,

330
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 1: you can take the test and a DMV kiosk. I

331
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: thought that's kind of odd. Why would they have you

332
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: take a test at a DMV kiosk. But I found

333
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: what I went to it didn't work. So I went

334
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 1: back home. I went on the computer and said, okay,

335
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,719
Speaker 1: I'll schedule an appointment. So I picked a time that

336
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 1: worked for me. I then typed my driver's license number in.

337
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: I typed my a few ditches, my social security in.

338
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,359
Speaker 1: I was then informed by the website that they couldn't

339
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:58,200
Speaker 1: find me. I didn't exist. They said they didn't recognize

340
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 1: me having a California driver's license. I was rejected, even

341
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: though they allowed me to log in to the website

342
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 1: to get to that point. At this point, they said

343
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,880
Speaker 1: I no longer existed. So then I was like, okay.

344
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 1: I tried the next day, didn't work, same thing. So

345
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,360
Speaker 1: I was okay, there's a phone number on the website.

346
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 1: I'll call the phone number. I'm sure there'll be a

347
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,679
Speaker 1: nice personal answer. We all know people that work at

348
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 1: the DMV are very nice, and so they will. Then

349
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 1: they will then direct me. So I called the number.

350
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:29,640
Speaker 1: I called the DMV number. I then got stuck in

351
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 1: an AI automated phone tree for about ten minutes until

352
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 1: I finally said screw this and I hung up. So

353
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 1: my license is going to be rotten soon, so I said,

354
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 1: you know what, screw it. I'll just show up. I'll

355
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 1: take the bullet, I'll go to the DMV. I have

356
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 1: no appointment at the DMV, but I'm going to show up.

357
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:57,199
Speaker 1: Oh no, what could go wrong exactly? But here's what

358
00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,199
Speaker 1: I did, Danny. I did do the adult thing. I

359
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 1: did opposition research. I studied all of the DMVs. I

360
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: had two different plans. Plan A was to just go

361
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 1: to the closest DMV because why not it's closed whatever.

362
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: Plan B was to go far away if the line

363
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: was short, because they had the wait times listed the

364
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,919
Speaker 1: average weight time if you don't have an appointment. So

365
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 1: I went on there and I started clicking, there's a

366
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 1: million DMBs where we are, and they listed the wait

367
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: times and so I went through all these and I

368
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 1: found one which wasn't too far away, but wasn't the

369
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 1: closest DMB. I picked that one and they had the

370
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 1: lowest average weight times. So I grabbed my headphones and

371
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:45,479
Speaker 1: I charged my phone, make sure I was ready to go,

372
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 1: and I just like went into the DMV jungle. I

373
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:53,159
Speaker 1: was treated rudely by a very large woman that was

374
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: at the front desk. It took me a long time

375
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: to get to the front desk. There were three different

376
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 1: stations had to go to, so she was kind of rude.

377
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: She was I hold, I describe it dismissive. I just

378
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: did it didn't get a good vibe from her. Pain

379
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 1: in the ass. She said, well, you you got to

380
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 1: go fill out this form, but you got to walk

381
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: past where they're taking the photos and then you can

382
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 1: fill out this form and then you can take the test.

383
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 1: But they're gonna call your number, so you can't just

384
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,119
Speaker 1: walk over there. Now you got away for them to

385
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 1: call your number, even though I'd already been online for

386
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: forty five minutes. So I was like whatever, So I

387
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 1: go sit down and then they called my number, so

388
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,160
Speaker 1: I then have to walk over. But after there's two

389
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 1: different lines. I had to go to the right line,

390
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 1: not the left line. I went to the right line.

391
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: I then got the piece of paper. Then they said no, no, no,

392
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: you got to go to this other window, window three.

393
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: So then I walked all the way around the DMB

394
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 1: in front of a bunch of people that hadn't showered

395
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: and smelled like ass, and I walked over to window three.

396
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 1: Then I was informed that not only would I have

397
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 1: to take a test, I had to do a eye

398
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 1: exam and take a phone This was not listed on

399
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 1: the DMV website. I was dressed like a schlub. I

400
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 1: was not told I was going to need my photo.

401
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: I just had my photo retaken a few years ago.

402
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:12,959
Speaker 1: Why would I need my photo? She said, no, no,

403
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 1: you gotta ed your phone. I'm like, I'm just like,

404
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 1: you know whatever. I was like, what, fine, So I

405
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: did the eye test. I passed that.

406
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 3: This is like when Eddie takes pictures of you.

407
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty much. Yeah. So I did the eye test.

408
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 1: Then I had to walk all the way around from

409
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 1: window three. I had to walk back around the DMB

410
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 1: all the way around to where they were doing the photo.

411
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,680
Speaker 1: So then I had to get my photo take. Okay, fine,

412
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: I did, but I still have to take the test.

413
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 1: If I don't pass the test, I don't get my

414
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:45,399
Speaker 1: license renewed. And then I'm told you know, I was

415
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: in line and then they were like, well I overheard

416
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: because I felt really bad. There was this really sweet

417
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 1: old man who had a Vietnam hat, which tells me

418
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: he was probably in Vietnam and he was there trying

419
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 1: to get his license renew I guess he had failed

420
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 1: his test a couple of times. He only had one

421
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: more test to take. Then he had to start the

422
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: process over again. You get three tries. If you fail

423
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: all three, they make you re pay the fee to

424
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 1: take three more attempts, and so this guy apparently failed

425
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 1: at a bunch and I felt bad for the guy.

426
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: And there were a bunch of old people in there

427
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,680
Speaker 1: that apparently had no ability to take the test. Now

428
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 1: keep in mind, Danny, I had not studied for the test.

429
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 1: I just figured I knew how to drive. What's the

430
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 1: big deal, right I kind of know the rules, and

431
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 1: my ass feels so good right now. So I go

432
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 1: into the go in there and they're like, no phones,

433
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 1: put your phone down. If you're there's cameras. If you're

434
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 1: on your phone, you're you know you're going to fail.

435
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: You basically, don't be an asshole from Houston, you know,

436
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 1: one of those baseball players. So I was like, fine, whatever.

437
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: So I walked over there and a little little nervous,

438
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: you know, I was like, oh, wait a minute. You

439
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 1: know this is not something I studied for. So I

440
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 1: start going through the questions. I'm like, ah, you know,

441
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,919
Speaker 1: I like, I'll screw it. I'll just do it. And

442
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 1: there were tons of questions I got. I only got

443
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 1: three wrong, and I passed the test. One take Mallard, Danny,

444
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 1: I passed the test, yay, and the one I got.

445
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 1: One of the ones I got wrong, I should have

446
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 1: gotten right. It was about they showed you the sign.

447
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 1: There was a sign that I thought meant hazardous waste,

448
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 1: but it meant something else, and that kind of pissed

449
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 1: me off. But overall, you know, it took a long time.

450
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: It didn't take as long as I thought, and I

451
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 1: got my license. The only problem with this is I

452
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 1: don't know whether or not I'm going to get my

453
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,480
Speaker 1: license before I have to go to the airport to

454
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 1: fly to Dixie to fly to South Carolina. So that's

455
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: a problem. I don't know if they'll even let me

456
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,920
Speaker 1: on the plane if I don't have a photo driver's lest.

457
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 1: I have a temporary driver's license I've never tried to

458
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 1: fly with Have you ever tried to fly with a

459
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 1: temporary driver's license without a photo.

460
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to find something that has your photo

461
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 3: on it to go along with that temporary license.

462
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: I could probably take my expired license it had my photo, right,

463
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 1: that would probably work.

464
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, that plus the new paper one probably would work.

465
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 1: Yeah. Okay, Well, I'm hoping it'll show up. A couple

466
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: of things that happened this week. I do have the

467
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: phrase of the week, Danny, not to be confused with

468
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 1: the idiom of the week or the word of the week,

469
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 1: the phrase of the week. Are you ready for the

470
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 1: phrase of the week?

471
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 3: The phrase of the week.

472
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 1: Now, I am doing this phrase of the week in

473
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 1: honor of the late Genie in Medford.

474
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 2: I got it all over me.

475
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 1: She said, I'm a doctor, right, but she was actually

476
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 1: quoting the phrase I'm not a doctor, but I play

477
00:25:55,920 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: one on TV. I'm a doctor. Yeah, she changed it up,

478
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 1: but the actual phrase that she was referencing was I'm

479
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: not a doctor, but I played one on TV and

480
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: I fell down a rabbit hole and I ended up

481
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 1: coming across this. So that phrase actually started. That catch

482
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 1: phrase started on television when we were kids in the

483
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 1: nineteen eighties, and it's I'm not a doctor, I play

484
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 1: one on TV. What if I told you that came from?

485
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:27,199
Speaker 1: What do you think that came from?

486
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:27,439
Speaker 2: Dan?

487
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,439
Speaker 1: Before I pay this off? What do you think it

488
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:30,880
Speaker 1: came from? Nineteen eighty four?

489
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 3: I'm not a doctor. I just played one on TV

490
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,160
Speaker 3: from a TV commercial? Maybe?

491
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 1: Yes, it was a commercial for Vic's Formula forty four.

492
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 1: Cough suroupe boom. Yeah. A guy named Chris Robinson was

493
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 1: the actor and the commercial. So why why did this

494
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 1: jackass say I'm not a doctor, but I played one

495
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,399
Speaker 1: on TV? Because back in that period of time, he

496
00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 1: played doctor Rick Weber on the soap opera General Hospital,

497
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 1: which is a big deal. People loved that show back

498
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 1: in the day. The ad continued, Now, the actor actually

499
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:12,439
Speaker 1: was fired because I guess he had tax issues. He

500
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 1: was fired, so they hired another TV doctor from the

501
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: soap opera All My Children, and they kept the catchphrase.

502
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 1: But that catchphrase is from a cough Syrup commercial in

503
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 1: the eighties. But nobody remembers that, right, Who the hell

504
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,439
Speaker 1: remembers that? They don't remember that. They just know the

505
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 1: catchphrase I'm not a doctor, but I play one on TV.

506
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: And that is also something that was stolen for a

507
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: hotel commercial, the Holiday in Express. Right. I mocked that

508
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 1: one all the time. I'm not a pilot, but I

509
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 1: did stay at a holiday in Express last night. I did.

510
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,919
Speaker 3: That's right. And the flashback when we got that famous

511
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 3: drop from Jeanie, you were saying on the air to her,

512
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 3: you know, Genie, I'm not a doctor, but I played

513
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,439
Speaker 3: one on the radio, and she retorted, I'm a doctor.

514
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,919
Speaker 1: That's the beauty of Genie and Medford. We have a

515
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,400
Speaker 1: little foodie fun. We'll get out on a little foody fun.

516
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,919
Speaker 1: We have some food stories here to give back to

517
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 1: the people. Let's see, I got Popeyes in Canada, Danny.

518
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:22,120
Speaker 1: These are actual food stories from random restaurants. Popeyes Canada

519
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 1: has added new buffalo crispy chicken wrap with Here's the

520
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 1: key part. Here's the reason I'm doing the story with

521
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 1: loaded buffalo poutine. Loaded buffalo poutine. But it's only in Canada.

522
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 1: Why can't we get poutine more widespread here in America?

523
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 1: What's up with that?

524
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 3: Doesn't taste that good?

525
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 1: What? What'sh your mouth out with soap and water? Dominoes

526
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:51,240
Speaker 1: is offering six ninety nine large two topping pizza carry

527
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 1: out deal. It goes through Sunday, so you have to

528
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 1: get that through Sunday if you want that deal. See

529
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 1: what else? Carls Junior waunching a new L Diablo hand

530
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: breaded chicken tender wrap. That's a lot loaded. Oh here

531
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: we go L diablow loaded fries.

532
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 3: Also everything is loaded now, Yes.

533
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: Even we are loaded. I think Hooters launching a new

534
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 1: sizzling menu featuring new mango habanero.

535
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 3: Wet sauce, and new loaded waitresses.

536
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. What else do we have? The habit bringing back

537
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 1: cinnamon toast crunch shake. That sounds all right, it's not bad.

538
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:39,600
Speaker 1: That's here. Domino's launches a U Tip we Tip promotion

539
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 1: that rewards customers who tip their delivery drivers. Aren't you

540
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 1: supposed to do that anyway? Though? Do you need to

541
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: be rewarded for that?

542
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 3: Like? What? What's But the problem is they keep upting

543
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 3: the delivery fees that they charge. I want to know

544
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 3: if that delivery fee doesn't go to the driver, who

545
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:58,320
Speaker 3: does it go to.

546
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know how that works. Maybe somebody can

547
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: help us out. That's that does that? America's most loved

548
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 1: chain in twenty twenty four. This is a new research

549
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 1: used Google search data to pinpoint America's favorite restaurant chains.

550
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,480
Speaker 1: What is America's most love chain? Last week we had

551
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 1: one of these things. They said, Culver's. It is not Culver's.

552
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: What do you think it is? This is a different.

553
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 3: Group Shane Restaurants.

554
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a national brand, largest a larger chain, larger.

555
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 3: Chain, larger chain. Fast food though, Uh, yeah, it's fast food. Wendy's.

556
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 1: No, this says McDonald's. I don't know you, big McDon

557
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: I don't hate McDonald's, but I don't need a lot

558
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 1: of fast food.

559
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 3: No. You know, recently I had a Wendy's junior bacon cheeseburger. Hell,

560
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 3: it was good. It tasted the same quality as when

561
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 3: I had it as a kid. I like the fact

562
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 3: that Wendy's hasn't really changed a lot of things on

563
00:30:57,760 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 3: their menu.

564
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's good that you ordered that at noon, because

565
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: if you'd ordered it it four o'clock, it would have

566
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 1: cost you twenty seven dollars. So it's good that you

567
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: ordered it at noon. Speaking of that, I saw that

568
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 1: Burger King and McDonald's. The claim is that Burger King

569
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 1: and McDonald's they do what Windy's is going to do,

570
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 1: but they do it in a different way. Taco Bell

571
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: also where they have the you know the Windy story

572
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 1: a couple weeks back, where they were going to raise

573
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 1: prices in the certain rush hour times. But I was

574
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 1: reading the story how they do this, and they were claiming, like,

575
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: I'll use Starbucks, because they used Starbucks as an example.

576
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 1: I'm reading from the story here. They said sometimes they'll

577
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 1: offer an afternoon buy one, get one free promotion on

578
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 1: some drinks, right, random drinks. They do that because that's

579
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 1: a time when they're not selling a lot of rappuccinos

580
00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 1: or whatever, so they're trying to drive traffic when things

581
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 1: are slow, and they've got loyalty point offers and things

582
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: like that are on certain items. They claim though, that

583
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 1: the most expensive price you'll pay for any item at

584
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 1: Burger King, McDonald's or Starbucks or Taco Bell is actually

585
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 1: on the menu board that that's the most expensed. But

586
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 1: what Wendy's was doing was they were talking about raising.

587
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 3: Prices, surging prices like Hubert.

588
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, but the other places actually have they have like

589
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 1: reverse surge pricing to try to get people in the

590
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 1: business when people normally aren't in the business, you know.

591
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 1: So that's the deal. All right, we'll get out on that. Danny,

592
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: it is Friday. Anything you would like to promote today

594
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 1: would assume NFL Draft around the clock coverage.

595
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, we had a lot of fun yesterday's

596
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 3: Cavino on Rich. We did an official CEE in our

597
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 3: movie Draft in honor of Al Pacino's eighty fourth birthday

598
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 3: was pretty cool. Did imaging and everything, and a lot

599
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 3: of silliness with that. So that was a fun show.
