She gave us some in side on what 0:01:01.480 --> 0:01:04.760 has been the story of the week here.

Um, you think Catherine Ross for joining us, 0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:57.200 I think you should thank me for pulling the guests too. 0:01:57.240 --> 0:02:00.120 I thought I did a good job with that. I 0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:04.280 was appropriate with the timing and your THEA. Because you 0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:06.240 will not pat me on the back, I will pat 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:17.239 myself on the back. I will pat You don't have 0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:21.040 to listen closer. You can hear the palpable right, the 0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:25.600 palpable elitism. You can hear as talks here. And it 0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:29.320 was so nice last week having someone not talk to 0:02:29.480 --> 0:02:36.400 work with someone and a microphone off, charming, engaging by Kevin. 0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:41.120 What's that's the fresh air? Yeah? What's Kevin's last name? 0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:46.040 Kevin is a savant. What's his last name? Do you want? 0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:48.399 You don't know his last name? I know his last 0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:51.040 day's last name. I'm just waiting for you to acknowledge 0:02:51.040 --> 0:02:54.720 that you do not know his O'Connell. You dummy, You 0:02:54.760 --> 0:02:59.840 didn't think I knew if I see Unlike you, I 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:04.360 know the behind the scenes people. I know. I'm not 0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:06.800 a names dropper like you. I don't. I don't go 0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:09.760 around I need it. I'm on a first name basis 0:03:09.800 --> 0:03:11.600 with Kevin O'Connell, so I don't have to say his 0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:14.280 last name. I know that's over your head here because 0:03:14.280 --> 0:03:16.480 you you want to brag about how you hang out 0:03:16.520 --> 0:03:19.119 with the low people and the totem ball and all 0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:21.240 that stuff, because that's a big thing. If you're west 0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:23.480 of the four oh five, you're up across your high 0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:27.040 society and all that. But I leave in a world 0:03:27.040 --> 0:03:29.720 with the common person, and so for me, it's not 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:32.080 that big deal. I just used their first name. But 0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:35.560 you you have you have to you do this nonsense. 0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:38.080 You play a little game. I'll educate you on how 0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:40.240 this works. I'll educate you and how this works. Okay, 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:42.880 Oh boy, I heard you missed me last week though, 0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:46.840 uh No, I was fine.

If you go to the 0:03:58.480 --> 0:04:01.480 Fox Sports Radio Hall of Fame, Bruce Jacobs has a 0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:04.840 plaque in there. Many great bits on the radio.

And 0:04:14.400 --> 0:04:16.839 we need a solid thirty or so minutes with Bruce. 0:04:16.880 --> 0:04:19.880 It was wonderful. It's great catching up on old stories, 0:04:19.920 --> 0:04:23.640 talking about what's going on. I loved it. Great. Yeah, 0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:27.480 talking old stories, it's great. Yeah, that's awesome. I don't know. 0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:30.359 You know this. People love stories, guests, people love stories. 0:04:30.480 --> 0:04:32.560 If you open up a restaurant, the first thing they 0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:34.120 tell you when you open up a restaurant is you've 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:36.240 gotta have a good backstory. You gotta have a good backstory. 0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:39.720 I go to Raising Kanes, right named after a dog, uh, 0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:41.599 and so they have If you go to Raising Kanes, 0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:44.680 any almost any locations will have a sign up telling 0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:49.000 the story of Raising Kanes. Now, I just want the 0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:51.120 chicken fingers. I don't need the backstory. But a lot 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:54.479 of people love the backstory and so we gave a 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:58.520 bunch of backstories. So people are welling for well informed, right, 0:04:58.600 --> 0:05:01.880 and they they're knowledgeable about that, and people enjoy that. 0:05:02.880 --> 0:05:04.760 It's fine. Old man radio is fine every once in 0:05:04.800 --> 0:05:07.280 a while. It's not old man old man radio. It's 0:05:07.320 --> 0:05:13.160 not old man radio because you're illiterate things. Is what 0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:18.599 I understand exactly what it is. Old man radio basically 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:21.359 insinuates that you guys just old guys talking about the 0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:24.960 glory days and not what's relevant and contemporary. It's fine. Well, 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.200 here's the problem you have, okay. He first of all, 0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:30.200 you've never had any glory days. You have nothing to 0:05:30.200 --> 0:05:33.640 talk about. It means righter days are in front of me. 0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:37.160 Then that's great. Well you think that, or you just 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:39.600 don't have any in your in your holster there, it 0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:41.400 could be the problem. Listen, all I need is one 0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:44.479 silver bullet. That's all I need is one. Yeah. He 0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:46.200 keeps saying that I try to get you that job 0:05:46.240 --> 0:05:49.960 in China, go to China. So listen, when I come 0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:52.440 to you for a career advice, you can go back 0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:54.720 to Tom Looney for real estate advice. How about that? 0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:56.520 You know here I am I help you, and you 0:05:56.720 --> 0:05:59.960 grumble plane. Let's go through the laundry list of how 0:06:00.320 --> 0:06:03.000 you've provided me throughout the years, and you condemn me 0:06:03.440 --> 0:06:06.040 and what I did. I didn't have to give you 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.240 advice here. I did not have to help you out. 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:11.920 You came to a professional, all right, and I gave 0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:16.839 you the information you requested and instead I instead of 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:20.360 a thank you, I get a bit session from you. Alright, 0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:23.839 So pooch paradise. Now it is story time on the 0:06:23.839 --> 0:06:26.000 Benmouth Show, and I gasconsin. Nobody wants a old guy 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:29.520 radio telling stories. This is a fresh story, a global exclusive, 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:32.520 global exclusive. Nobody else has this. So the other night, 0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:37.000 me and the family are driving home from celebrating my 0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:39.240 brother's birthday. My brother has been in town helping us out. 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:44.120 You know, my father unfortunately, surprisingly unexpectedly passed away at 0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:46.839 the beginning of one and so we've had a lot 0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:49.039 to take care of and my brother has been out here, 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:51.960 has been great. He's been able to work remotely because 0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:55.359 of the COVID stuff, so he's been in California helping 0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:58.159 me out. And my younger brother was unable to make 0:06:58.160 --> 0:07:00.360 it from Wisconsin. So my brother knew or has been 0:07:00.400 --> 0:07:03.680 out here. So we were celebrating the birthday with him, 0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.240 and you know, it's unfortunate because he couldn't be with 0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:08.800 his family. So but I am family, So I think 0:07:08.800 --> 0:07:10.720 I think I still qualify as family even though we 0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:12.520 don't you know, we don't live in the same times 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:14.400 on it all that. So anyway, I'm coming back home 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:17.480 from celebrating my brother's birthday. We turned the corner to 0:07:17.840 --> 0:07:20.200 almost home. We turned the corner onto the street the 0:07:20.240 --> 0:07:24.080 Mallard Mansions on uh, and as I'm turning, we noticed 0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:29.640 this large beast. It looked like a wolf wandering around 0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:32.360 the streets there. And I was like, that's kind of weird. 0:07:32.480 --> 0:07:35.239 And it was like dazed and confused, like it had 0:07:35.760 --> 0:07:37.880 smoked too much weed or something like that, or had 0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:41.840 too many pops. So I'm like, okay, everyone, shway, you 0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:44.920 see a creature out there here, Especially working the late 0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:48.600 night shift coming home, you see all kinds of critters 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:51.320 and things like that. So I anythink any of it? Uh, 0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:53.680 And my my wife like immediately know. So I I 0:07:53.840 --> 0:07:56.800 drive the Mallard wibile into the driveway. I parked the car, 0:07:57.400 --> 0:08:00.480 my wife and springs into action. Now this was we 0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:03.000 mentioned the weather. This was a chilly, soa count night. 0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:06.040 It was down into the thirties. But my wife she 0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:09.120 sprints like she's in the Olympics into the cul de 0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:13.040 Sac area there to try to find said creature because 0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:16.560 the creature looked like it was sick. Next thing I know, 0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:21.600 next thing I know, we have this. It turned out 0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:25.720 to be an old canine that is now being housed 0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:30.080 in the backyard of the Mallard mansion. So this old 0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:34.360 mongrel who was walking slowly, completely out of sorts and 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:37.800 all that. And now, mind you, while this is going on, 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:41.200 I am prepping for the show, like I'm I'm doing 0:08:41.240 --> 0:08:44.040 my copious research, trying to put the show together and 0:08:44.040 --> 0:08:45.520 figure out what I want to talk about and what 0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:47.599 I want to yap about and these dopey monologues and 0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:51.440 all this and jotting down some bullet points and so well, 0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:54.719 all that's going on, Uh, my wife's in the backyard. Now, 0:08:54.760 --> 0:08:56.600 my wife, this is this is where it gets even better. 0:08:56.640 --> 0:09:04.200 I mentioned pooch Paradise. So the wife feeling bad because 0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:07.680 it was so cold, So a hand to God here, 0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:10.520 she decided. First of all, she put out one of 0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:13.480 the you know those portable space heaters. You know, I 0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:15.760 was saying, yeah, the little box, you plug them in whatever. 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:18.400 So we have a few of those because we don't 0:09:18.480 --> 0:09:19.880 sometimes we want to turn on the heater. We just 0:09:19.920 --> 0:09:21.560 have a room we want to heat, and most people 0:09:21.960 --> 0:09:23.559 have that, I think. And so we had one of 0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:26.160 those heaters and she decided, you know what, I'm gonna 0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:28.040 get an extension court. She goes out and she gets 0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:30.000 the extension court somewhere. I don't know where she got 0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:32.880 it from. She then proceeds to open up the door 0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:36.040 a little bit, put this heater in the backyard so 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:39.160 the mutt could stay warm. She of course gave the 0:09:39.200 --> 0:09:41.160 food and water to the to the dog and that 0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:45.760 whole thing. And it was she was getting upset because 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:48.559 the dog was not laying near the heater because apparently 0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:51.559 the dog didn't give a crap and wasn't cold. This 0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:53.880 seemed like it was cold, and so it was all 0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:55.960 for not. Now, the reason the dog had to stay 0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:58.360 in the backyard guest gun is because we had not 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:00.360 only it was Pooh Paradise, but it was all most 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:05.840 uh pooch octagon because Bella, the Mallard dog, Bella was 0:10:05.920 --> 0:10:08.840 having none of this. And so we had a lot 0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:11.960 of drama because we had to close off the doggie 0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:14.520 door where Bella. You know, it gets busy in the 0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:18.520 backyard pooh, and you know what. And so because this 0:10:18.720 --> 0:10:23.240 this old hound would have one bite, it wouldn't even 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:26.240 been an appetizer for Bella. Uh if if the dog 0:10:26.240 --> 0:10:29.240 had eaten Bella rather and so, anyway, my wife to 0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:31.320 advance the story kind of the final part of this, 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:35.240 the the wife posted on there's a neighborhood page. I 0:10:35.280 --> 0:10:37.719 don't know what where this is. What platform is I 0:10:37.760 --> 0:10:39.839 don't it's on Facebook or something like that, but it's 0:10:39.840 --> 0:10:42.480 a you know, the community the streets around where I live. 0:10:42.559 --> 0:10:46.280 They have a community where they post different things about 0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:48.960 crime or whatever is going on in the neighborhood and stuff. 0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:52.200 So anyway, she's on there a lot. She's engaged. I'm not. 0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:54.280 I have no idea. I don't know anybody around here. 0:10:54.440 --> 0:10:57.400 And uh so the story had an happy ending. She 0:10:57.559 --> 0:11:01.440 was able to track down the dog's owner and reunite 0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:03.880 the owner and the dog. It was an older woman 0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:07.360 who was apparently I wasn't there when the dog was returned, 0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:12.040 but it was very excited and the dog, you'd say, 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:15.520 I don't know, maybe seven eight blocks away from where 0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:18.640 we are. But it's you know, it's a weird The 0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:20.520 grid around here is crazy because there's a lot of 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:23.880 dead end streets and things like that. So, uh so 0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:26.120 there you go. So if you need dog boarding, the 0:11:26.160 --> 0:11:30.079 Mallard Mansion will allow you to keep your dog overnight 0:11:30.120 --> 0:11:32.000 if you want. Now, this is good karma, though, gas 0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:37.559 gun because um, I think it was in December. I 0:11:37.600 --> 0:11:40.920 think it was either November or December last year. Uh, 0:11:41.320 --> 0:11:45.800 Bella escaped right, flew the coop, went a wall and 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:48.079 got away, and we told the story on the podcast. 0:11:48.120 --> 0:11:52.600 But Bella was returned by a neighbor who saw Bella 0:11:52.720 --> 0:11:54.680 and then drove around and try to find the owner 0:11:54.720 --> 0:11:58.400 of Bella. So yeah, so it had So it's it's 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:01.640 it's like karma, you know, you scratch my pay it forward, right, 0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:05.000 they paid it forward. We paid it forward so the 0:12:05.160 --> 0:12:09.120 universe can continue. It's good. It's my my pooch paradise. Now. 0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:13.080 Uh you had what is this day of broken glass? 0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:15.560 What is that all about? What happened with that? So 0:12:15.800 --> 0:12:19.079 I had. I had a bit of a catastrophe a 0:12:19.120 --> 0:12:21.840 few days ago. I um as you know, I'd love 0:12:21.920 --> 0:12:24.800 to Uh I left a one and dine a little bit. 0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:30.280 And uh, I take great pride in my cooking. And 0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:32.640 this is something even though it's headlined A day of 0:12:32.679 --> 0:12:34.840 broken Glass, this is going to turn into a story 0:12:35.240 --> 0:12:37.720 about how great you want. Well, this is alarming. This 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:40.320 is alarming because I don't know. Well, okay, so when 0:12:40.320 --> 0:12:43.920 you usually set up on Sundays during the NFL season 0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:48.440 and you're usually making your pizza, like you have you 0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:50.719 have your your line of sight where you go from 0:12:50.760 --> 0:12:53.080 point A to point and b right like you go, 0:12:53.760 --> 0:12:58.120 you go what dough, sauce, cheese, Pepperoni's or something like 0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:00.800 that combination. Right, well, yeah, yeah, yeah, I do what 0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:04.600 I do. My move here is I have the dough 0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:06.680 and I kind of spread that out. I make the 0:13:06.720 --> 0:13:10.000 pizza from scratch or all buy dough and then make 0:13:10.080 --> 0:13:12.280 it that way. But either way, you know, you go. 0:13:12.600 --> 0:13:14.959 You go the dough first to put the you what 0:13:15.040 --> 0:13:18.200 I like to do is put garlic powder on the dough, 0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:21.200 and then I put the tomato sauce, and then I 0:13:21.240 --> 0:13:24.720 put more garlic powder and some other like Italian season 0:13:24.760 --> 0:13:26.920 and things like that on the on the tomato sauce, 0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:29.319 and then I go to the cheese. Does you want 0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:31.600 the full. You don't want the full, But does the 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:36.280 powder make it less sticky? Uh? It just adds an 0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:38.680 extra kick to the garlic, is what it does. So 0:13:38.720 --> 0:13:41.280 it's it's you put garlic powder in Italian season? Man? 0:13:41.400 --> 0:13:45.840 Is that good? I was curious. No, I do have 0:13:45.880 --> 0:13:47.480 to put on the pizza tray. I have to put 0:13:47.480 --> 0:13:49.960 a little oil down just so it doesn't stick. Because yeah, 0:13:50.000 --> 0:13:52.840 that is boy, there's nothing more frustrating than you make 0:13:52.840 --> 0:13:55.440 a delicious pizza and then you try to you can't 0:13:55.480 --> 0:13:58.800 get it off. Yeah, it's just horrible. But anyway, So 0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:01.000 I do the tomato, then put the cheese on top. 0:14:01.240 --> 0:14:04.320 Then I put the toppings. Depending on the mood, I'm 0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:07.200 at do like a turkey pepperoni because I'm healthy, or 0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:11.880 I'll put you know, usually bell peppers and garlic, roasted garlic, 0:14:12.400 --> 0:14:15.600 an onion, And man, is that great? That the greatest 0:14:15.600 --> 0:14:17.960 pizza we'll see? I bring that up because of this. 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:20.480 A couple of days ago, I was making dinner for 0:14:20.520 --> 0:14:25.080 the fam, and um I decided to do chicken. I 0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:27.480 was doing chicken and vegetables the whole nine yards, But 0:14:27.640 --> 0:14:30.280 for the chicken, I usually let it sit for like 0:14:30.320 --> 0:14:33.760 thirty minutes. And then I'll start marinating everything and spicing 0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:35.360 it all up. But I did that. I have like 0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:39.440 my protocol, and I had this this pan that I 0:14:39.480 --> 0:14:42.720 was gonna put everything in, and so I oiled it up, 0:14:43.520 --> 0:14:47.880 turn on the oven, preheated it for wasnt four seventy 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:50.440 five I think it was. I was ready to go. 0:14:50.920 --> 0:14:52.640 Chicken was ready to be put in. There was like 0:14:52.720 --> 0:14:56.280 probably ten eleven breasts that I put into the pan, 0:14:56.800 --> 0:15:00.000 put it into the oven, set the timer for like minute, 0:15:00.800 --> 0:15:03.680 and um during the cooking, I'll take it out halfway 0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:05.840 through and then just flip all the chicken breasts over. 0:15:06.080 --> 0:15:08.200 Always do that. This is a lot of chicken. How 0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:11.920 many people are you serving here? A large amount of breast? Yeah, 0:15:11.960 --> 0:15:15.520 there was like five of us. Okay, so so each 0:15:15.520 --> 0:15:18.680 person is going to eat to at least two pieces 0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:22.760 of chicken probably under that scenario. Yeah. And so I 0:15:22.800 --> 0:15:25.440 took a phone call in the middle of cooking, and 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:27.080 it wasn't gonna take me that long. And all of 0:15:27.120 --> 0:15:29.040 a sudden, like I heard a couple of beepings. So 0:15:29.040 --> 0:15:30.800 I thought it was the timer going off on the oven. 0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:33.720 I go to the oven and it's not the case. 0:15:34.320 --> 0:15:35.920 Like there were smoke coming out of the oven, and 0:15:36.000 --> 0:15:39.320 I thought, what the funk is this? So Ben, I 0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:42.320 opened up the oven and the pan that I was 0:15:42.480 --> 0:15:46.480 I had all the chicken breast in exploded. What it 0:15:46.760 --> 0:15:52.080 fucking exploded? Yeah, I was. I looked. I looked at 0:15:52.080 --> 0:15:53.480 the pane. I was like, how do it? How does 0:15:53.520 --> 0:15:55.920 it pan? Was it like a gag pan that somebody 0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:58.880 gave you as a no, no, guess god, it's going 0:15:58.960 --> 0:16:01.640 to explode. It's It's a pan that I've used on 0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:05.880 on many of occasions for chicken, for steak, for vegetables. 0:16:06.160 --> 0:16:08.400 I mean, you name it, I've I've cooked on it 0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:13.640 and I've always set the temperature anywhere from and have 0:16:13.840 --> 0:16:18.080 never had the issue, like never once. And I opened 0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:21.240 why was this night different than all other nights? Guests? 0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:24.800 I have no f an idea? And the chicken looked amazing. 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:26.800 The worst part is it smelled good and it was 0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:31.160 still cooking so like it was cooing. I'm looking at 0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:35.600 some photographic evidence here, Wow, that is a It sucked. 0:16:36.840 --> 0:16:41.240 You still eat the chicken because I would have considered. 0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:43.320 I did consider it, but I was like, oh man, 0:16:43.480 --> 0:16:45.720 what's the risk reward? Can't do that? You can't do 0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:47.840 that to me the fact if you hear a little 0:16:47.880 --> 0:16:50.280 crunch when you bite it, you might want to spit 0:16:50.320 --> 0:16:52.600 that out. You might want to spit that out a 0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:55.480 little glass teeth action. Well, that's a lot of chicken 0:16:55.520 --> 0:16:57.760 to go to waist there. You haven't defeated to the 0:16:57.800 --> 0:16:59.920 dog or something like that. I had to throw it away, man, 0:17:00.200 --> 0:17:03.280 to throw that panaway, you should have fully cooked it 0:17:03.360 --> 0:17:05.800 and then given it to you know, an animals. We'll see. 0:17:05.800 --> 0:17:07.920 I I when I checked the timer, it was pretty 0:17:08.000 --> 0:17:12.680 damn close to being done. Wow. Yeah, really disappointing. That's 0:17:12.720 --> 0:17:16.160 like the first it's like the first catastrophe they've had 0:17:16.640 --> 0:17:20.480 cooking in a long time. That's no, you had to 0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:22.360 let it cool down thereby we set the vacuum out, 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:24.560 and having vacuum up all the glass, had to scrape 0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:26.359 it out. Yeah, to get scrape it out a little 0:17:26.400 --> 0:17:29.520 broom and get that sucker out because the shards of 0:17:29.560 --> 0:17:31.600 glass we were pretty thick. So I got those out 0:17:31.680 --> 0:17:34.680 right away. But everything else is small and able to 0:17:34.720 --> 0:17:37.239 salvage the the oven, so I pressed on. I mean, 0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:39.240 I had another batch of chicken that I made and 0:17:39.400 --> 0:17:44.000 actually uh grilled a different way, and it was all good, 0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:46.399 but yeah, it was, it was. It sucked. I was 0:17:46.720 --> 0:17:49.320 contemplating sending you a picture of it when it happened, 0:17:49.880 --> 0:17:52.240 but I thought i'd get nothing but hawes and hawes 0:17:52.240 --> 0:17:55.080 and you know, maybe the picture too on social media. 0:17:55.119 --> 0:17:58.040 So you made you made a wise decision waiting. You 0:17:58.080 --> 0:18:00.879 made a wise decision waiting to do that, because I 0:18:00.880 --> 0:18:04.160 would have killed you. I would have killed you. Um. Yeah, 0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:05.879 not to nitpick, but you might want to clean your 0:18:05.880 --> 0:18:08.639 oven too. There's some I did. I just on the 0:18:08.680 --> 0:18:11.240 front of it there it looks uh that's because of 0:18:11.280 --> 0:18:15.280 the explosion. And I thought you just left it like that. 0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:18.399 I thought you just a pig looking at the at 0:18:18.400 --> 0:18:20.919 the photo here. Yeah, No, I mean because I I 0:18:21.000 --> 0:18:24.280 layered the pan pretty well with oil and um and 0:18:24.359 --> 0:18:27.080 a sheet and then the same thing with the chicken breasts, 0:18:27.480 --> 0:18:29.479 and yeah, I was ready to go, man, and then 0:18:29.480 --> 0:18:37.080 all of a sudden, just really disappointing. That's crazy. All right, Well, 0:18:37.720 --> 0:18:39.800 I'm glad have you recovered from that? Is everything You're 0:18:39.800 --> 0:18:42.119 gonna You're not cook anymore. But I can't cook you 0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:46.520 sing my my freaking explode here. No, I just I mean, 0:18:46.640 --> 0:18:48.679 I don't know, I don't know how I fucked up 0:18:49.160 --> 0:18:51.520 with that oven and the temperature in the pan, especially 0:18:51.560 --> 0:18:54.000 when I've used it on the regular. I'm sure someone's 0:18:54.040 --> 0:18:56.480 gonna I'm sure someone's gonna listen to this and I 0:18:56.480 --> 0:18:58.679 actually listen to the words I said and start bitching 0:18:58.720 --> 0:19:01.720 me on Twitter about it. But well, that's why Twitter exists, 0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:04.960 for people to complain. That's the reason, the very reason. 0:19:05.359 --> 0:19:08.480 It's uh, they're absolutely all right. So I have a 0:19:08.600 --> 0:19:14.160 story as well, another story metal shoes. So yeah, again 0:19:14.200 --> 0:19:16.840 this is called my life. Um, you know the reason 0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:19.199 we had to stop doing Benny versus the Penny is 0:19:19.600 --> 0:19:21.159 you know, hopefully we can do it next week for 0:19:21.200 --> 0:19:24.080 the super Bowl. But you know, my pretty much all 0:19:24.119 --> 0:19:28.880 my free time has been spent literally and figuratively helping 0:19:29.040 --> 0:19:32.200 take care of my father's estate. So it's, uh, there's 0:19:32.200 --> 0:19:34.000 a lot to do, but mainly the house is the 0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:36.920 big thing. And he lived by himself after my mom 0:19:36.960 --> 0:19:43.080 passed away, uh in and so um, pretty much all 0:19:43.119 --> 0:19:45.399 my mom's it's it's almost like both parents at the 0:19:45.440 --> 0:19:47.960 same piome all my mom stuff. I'm going through that 0:19:48.000 --> 0:19:50.639 because he just left it didn't didn't get rid of 0:19:50.760 --> 0:19:54.320 pretty much anything, and so it's like, uh, it's pretty overwhelming. 0:19:54.400 --> 0:19:55.840 So my brother has been helping out with why it's 0:19:55.840 --> 0:19:58.480 been great. The family has been very supportive and all that, 0:19:58.520 --> 0:20:01.480 which is wonderful. But uh, you know, that's my That's 0:20:01.480 --> 0:20:03.359 pretty much all I do. I do radio during the week, 0:20:03.400 --> 0:20:05.440 which I love. I keep my mind off everything through 0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:08.919 the show, focused on that. Last weekend, I noticed I 0:20:08.960 --> 0:20:11.800 was moving some stuff, getting rid of some stuff, donating 0:20:11.840 --> 0:20:15.040 stuff um that my dad. My dad had left, and 0:20:15.280 --> 0:20:19.119 I noticed my shoe felt a little different, alright, So 0:20:19.160 --> 0:20:22.399 at first I kind of ignored this, and then I 0:20:22.440 --> 0:20:26.400 gave a a quick glance at the old clod hopper there, 0:20:26.640 --> 0:20:30.560 and first of all, I didn't notice anything visually odd, 0:20:31.119 --> 0:20:33.560 so I kept walking on it, but it still felt 0:20:33.600 --> 0:20:36.639 a little out of sorts. So I was like, I 0:20:37.000 --> 0:20:39.439 don't know what's going on whatever, But I I was like, well, 0:20:39.480 --> 0:20:41.959 I just looked just nothing there. It mus be my imagination. 0:20:42.040 --> 0:20:45.680 So this was last weekend, and then on Tuesday I 0:20:45.720 --> 0:20:48.359 got I opped on the treadmill and I kind of 0:20:48.400 --> 0:20:52.119 heard this clank sound that and I really heard it, 0:20:52.200 --> 0:20:55.080 and uh, and when I was working out, So I'm 0:20:55.080 --> 0:20:58.960 gonna send you a photo here, guess gan, Uh, let 0:20:58.960 --> 0:21:04.879 me see there and check that out. Um, so I'm 0:21:04.920 --> 0:21:07.359 I'm doing and I at that point I stopped. I 0:21:07.440 --> 0:21:12.840 turned the the shoe over, the soul of the shoe 0:21:13.880 --> 0:21:17.760 and uh, yeah, let me let me send you another photo. 0:21:17.840 --> 0:21:21.000 You honest, I don't see if you can see that good? Yeah. 0:21:21.080 --> 0:21:23.879 So I turned the shoe over to examine. Into my amazement, 0:21:23.920 --> 0:21:28.240 I found a large metal screw wedged into my shoe, 0:21:28.440 --> 0:21:30.840 right into the soul of my shoe. It's about a 0:21:30.880 --> 0:21:34.280
