1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:01,440
Speaker 1: Kubbooms.

2
00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 2: If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 2: a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 2: of the old republic, a sol fashion of fairness. He

5
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 2: treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the

6
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,480
Speaker 2: rich pill poppers in the penthouse.

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 3: Wow.

8
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 2: The Clearinghouse of Hot takes break free for something special.

9
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 2: The Fifth Hour with Ben Mahller starts right now.

10
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:36,880

11
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 4: of The Fifth Hour with Ben Mahler and Danny g As.

12
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:45,520
Speaker 1: We are providing you with a marginal podcast. Well hopefully

13
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 1: it's better than marginal, and you can binge on the podcast.

14
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: You can listen to all the podcasts. If you wait

15
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: till the end of the weekend you can overindulge, or

16
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: you can listen podcast by podcast and wait for it

17
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: to download. I do love the fact. I love and

18
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: hate the fact, and Danny g is with me of

19
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: course on the bikes. I love that that people plan

20
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 1: their schedule around the podcast to the point where if

21
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: it's not up at exactly the right time, I get

22
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 1: angry messages and people saying what's going on. I don't

23
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: understand why is the podcast that not off like they

24
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 1: think that there is some kind of war crime Danny.

25
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, tough cookies or how do you say it is?

26
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 5: Tough turtles, tough what toenails?

27
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: Tough toenails, or tough toenails.

28
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 5: That's a good one.

29
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: But listen, we're glad that you love the podcast. We

30
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 1: try to get it up as early as possible, but

31
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: sometimes there's acts of God. Isn't that the get out

32
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: of jail? If you're an insurance company, well, we don't

33
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: have to pay the claim. It's an act of God.

34
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 1: So if the podcast doesn't get up at exactly the

35
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: right time, it's an act of God. Right, And you

36
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,919
Speaker 1: can't unpeel an orange. You can try, but you can't

37
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: unpeel an orange. So sometimes things happen, and you.

38
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 5: Know, well, you know, I just saw one comment on

39
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 5: Facebook last weekend. But the thing is is, remember I'm

40
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 5: also working and doing other jobs on the weekend, like

41
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,959
Speaker 5: I did last weekend, so I was doing double duty.

42
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 5: I was carrying my laptop around with me. While we

43
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 5: were in a studio with Mike Tyson. You could hear

44
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 5: Ben Mallers tones coming out of the computer speaker. This

45
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 5: travels with me. Ben, This is like my baby. I

46
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 5: have a son, Daddy. This is like my first kid though,

47
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,519
Speaker 5: because this travels with me no matter where I'm at.

48
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: Are you going to be naming your son radio or

49
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: pod Pod for podcast?

50
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 5: It would be a good middle name.

51
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:55,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, radio pod there you go. Well, well, radio would

52
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: be a tough first name because your last name is radio,

53
00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: so it it'd be radio ring.

54
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's not good.

55
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: That would be an awkward name. The kid would be

56
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: picked on at school. Radio Radio'd a bit of a problem. Anyway,

57
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 1: big event at the Malor Mansion. Now, if you follow

58
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 1: this podcast, you know and this is just the life

59
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 1: of me Ben, in the life of Danny g As.

60
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: We kind of let you behind the microphone as we

61
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,239
Speaker 1: have big, exciting lives star radio people. I mean, we're

62
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: living the dream here, Danny. We're big time radio people.

63
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: An amazing thing. It is not at all like the

64
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: Twilight Zone. It's not like you're traveling through another dimension,

65
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: a dimension not only of sight and sound, but of mine. No, no, no,

66
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: it is a wondrous land. So a couple of years

67
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: ago when the COVID hit, I guess we're going back

68
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: three years now, a few months before COVID happened, I

69
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: had made a very big and very big purchase that

70
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 1: was a life changing proom. This is what a loser

71
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: I am that I was so excited about getting this.

72
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: I got a gymnasium grade treadmill. They were on sale

73
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: and there was a gym that had closed. It's the

74
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: same treadmill that I use when I go to the

75
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: actual gym. I love this thing, right, I'm on there

76
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: all the time. You know, It's my standard default workout.

77
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: That's my deal. So I bought this treadmill and I

78
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: got the whole thing. We had to call an electrician

79
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: to get the things set up because it takes special

80
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 1: kind of plug. And anyway, when COVID happened, to make

81
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:36,919
Speaker 1: a long story a little bit longer, things did not

82
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: go well. And at the end of twenty twenty into

83
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, my father had become sick and really

84
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: suddenly passed away. And in the process we ended up

85
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: moving while the pandemic was still going on. And the

86
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 1: people that moved the treadmill, let's just say they didn't

87
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: use kid gloves when they were taking the treadmill apart.

88
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 1: It was not a Noble Art the art of moving there.

89
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 1: It was a bit of a frightening experience. It was

90
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: really terrifying watching this thing being taken apart. So it

91
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: stayed in storage for about a year. It came out

92
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: as storage and it didn't work. So that was a problem. Shocker, yeah,

93
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: and covered in dust and all that. And so finally

94
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: within the last week here my lovely wife has has

95
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,919
Speaker 1: gifted this is this my birthday weekend here Danny and

96
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: so I said, she asked me what I wanted for

97
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 1: my birthday? What a loser? I said, this is what

98
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: I want. I want my I want to I want

99
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 1: a treadmill to be fixed. So we knew a guy

100
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: that kind of Now it's halfway fixed. It's not all

101
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: the way fixed. You know how treadmills have elevation. That's

102
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: not working. But the rest of it works, and I'm

103
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 1: fine with that for now. I'm fine with that for now.

104
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 1: So I can studio exactly exactly. You know, it's not perfect.

105
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: Looks good, it definitely looks good. It looks like everything

106
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 1: should be working. It doesn't all work. It looks great.

107
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: It's aesthetically pleasing and all that. So still needs a

108
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: little bit work, But it's been nice to have it back.

109
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 1: And I don't even use it every but I still

110
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: go to the gym because I have a gym membership

111
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: that I'm still paying for. But it's nice to have.

112
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: And sometimes on the weekends or if I have an

113
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 1: extra fifteen minutes, I want to just jump on here

114
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 1: and there sporadically. So it's kind a cool thing to have.

115
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 1: And it's a one of those perks in life that

116
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: are neat to have, and so it's it's nice. You know.

117
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: It's also nice dad shoes. Hell right, not those?

118
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 5: No, they're not nice.

119
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:40,679
Speaker 1: Oh they're not nice.

120
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 5: No, Well you buy? Do you buy yours? At Costco?

121
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: I don't. My feet are two wide. I can't buy.

122
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 5: Otherwise you would, though, right of course I would.

123
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely.

124
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,159
Speaker 5: There's somebody else And I mentioned his name a few

125
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 5: minutes ago. Might surprise you that he rocks dad shoes

126
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 5: in Vegas broadcasting live last weekend for that big fight, which,

127
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 5: by the way, did the Russian bot help you watch it?

128
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 1: I was able to see it. Did you go to

129
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: the fire? Were you able to get in?

130
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 3: Or no?

131
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: You No? You did not? Ah?

132
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,239
Speaker 5: No, I know. It's like when we covered the super Bowl.

133
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: I know, I don't know. It's like everyone goes to

134
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: the super Bowl and hardly anyone ever actually goes to

135
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: the game.

136
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 5: It's like, yeah, but it was still a great weekend,

137
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 5: good food. It was fun hanging out with Covino and

138
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 5: Rich and spot.

139
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: Now did you make before you tell the story you

140
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: take it to I did recommend a burger place? Were

141
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: able to make it?

142
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 5: Or no? No? Because we had food credits but only

143
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 5: inside Win and Encore.

144
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: Oh so you had free food? Huh.

145
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 5: We we did have some free food, but we had

146
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 5: to stay but where we were at although funny story

147
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 5: about that. We go into one of the restaurants in

148
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 5: the wind and Rich says, all right, I'm gonna put

149
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 5: this meal on my room for the credit that I

150
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 5: have for a meal. So you know, we're eating, We're

151
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,559
Speaker 5: ordering what we want off the menu. He even ordered

152
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 5: two desserts ben not one, but two for the table.

153
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 5: And then when he told the waitress at the very end, yeah,

154
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 5: my room number is this, she said, we're privately owned. No, yeah,

155
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 5: poor Rich. So he had to just put it on

156
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 5: his own credit card.

157
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 1: And that's a body blow.

158
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, just to be a dick, I said, so, do

159
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 5: you think you would have got a second dessert?

160
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,079
Speaker 1: No, what you should have done is that he said,

161
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 1: can I get a doggy bag? I'd like some of

162
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: that orange chicken to go? Can I get some?

163
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 5: It was a good time. It was a lot of fun,

164
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 5: but it was hard work too, because we're lugging around

165
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 5: all this broadcasting gear. What three four hours of broadcasting,

166
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 5: But there was a law of prep before. There was

167
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 5: a lot of post production after. Of course, not for

168
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 5: rich He got to run and he plays digital Roulette

169
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 5: really yeah, a video game. It's like Roulette, but a

170
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 5: video game.

171
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:18,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, with real money. I've done that. I love Roulette really,

172
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,319
Speaker 1: that's my favorite game to play in Vegas. The problem

173
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: I got burned on one of those Roulette things because

174
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: I have a certain system with Roulette, like it's it's

175
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 1: you play the odds, right, it's either black, red or green,

176
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 1: and you need to pick red or black fifty to

177
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: fifty chance or even fifty. Well it's not quite fifty

178
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: to fifty. But I was playing one of those Roulette

179
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: machines and I was betting red. And the way it

180
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 1: works is you when you know, I'll give the system

181
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 1: out right. I don't do it really much anymore. But

182
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 1: you bet red, you lose, you double your bet, you

183
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: lose again, you double your bet. Now you got to

184
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: have a big enough payroll, big enough bank roll. But

185
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 1: eventually it's going to come back to red in less. Yes,

186
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: it's a rig game, and you're playing a roulette game,

187
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 1: a video game version, and it hits green or black.

188
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:12,959
Speaker 1: I think it was nine or ten times in a row,

189
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 1: and I went, I lost everything.

190
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 5: Oh brutal. There. At one point he was up seven

191
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 5: hundred and twenty dollars.

192
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: Oh see, what you got to do is when you

193
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 1: got to go back to your original amount and save

194
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: the rest is as profits is which you got.

195
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 5: So I told him the same thing and he was like,

196
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,080
Speaker 5: I know, I know, but he kept he's a Niners fan.

197
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 5: He kept doing Red sixteen, Red sixteen for Joe Montana,

198
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 5: Red sixteen, so he's he's you know, he at least

199
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 5: got to go have a little bit of fun doing that.

200
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 5: While I was doing post production in the Blue Wires

201
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 5: studios there at the wind so beautiful setup looked spectacular

202
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 5: on the cameras but also functioned at one hundred percent

203
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 5: nice studios there is you're walking away from the pool

204
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 5: in the Spa to some of the fancy restaurants, you

205
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 5: walk past this studio, so it's like being in a

206
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 5: fish bowl. All the wind clientele and visitors are looking

207
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 5: into the studio and they can hear the broadcast. So

208
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 5: it's a pretty cool setup. So we do Friday show live. Saturday,

209
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 5: we come back to do a special podcast version of

210
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 5: the show as a fight preview. But we get a

211
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,680

Speaker 5: and they apologize for pushing you guys back, but he

217
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,040

218
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 5: some video promo stuff with you before you jump on

219

Speaker 5: hang around. We're waiting, We're waiting. We get in there.

221
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 5: There's obviously a shit ton of people outside the window

222
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 5: watching and listening, trying to get a picture of Mike Tyson.

223
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,359
Speaker 1: I feel this is a little self and grand diving.

224
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 5: Inside the Green room. Is this guy who's kind of

225
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 5: cheering on the interview uh, And a couple of times

226
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 5: he kept saying, my dad this, and yeah, my dad, Well,

227
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,439
Speaker 5: when's my dad gonna be done? And I didn't know

228
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 5: if he was talking about the guy who was interviewing

229
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 5: Mike Tyson. The R and B singer Neo was also

230
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 5: in there, and I'm like, well, this kid's a little

231
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 5: too old to be Neo's son, but I wasn't sure.

232
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 5: So finally I asked him. I said, who's your dad, Mike.

233
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 5: Mike's my dad, so's Tyson's son, which was cool, So

234
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 5: we started chatting with him, and then Tyson comes out

235
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 5: and he's got this look on his face. Ben it

236
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 5: looked like he was about to go ten. He wanted

237
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 5: to punch somebody in the grill.

238
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 1: I love me.

239
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 5: It turns out he wanted to get the f out

240
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 5: of there because they wouldn't let him smoke inside the studio.

241
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 1: Oh, I was gonna ask you, because he's a big

242
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 1: weed guy. Did he smell like weed? Was he smelling

243
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: like the weed there?

244
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 5: His weed company manager was there in the building. They

245
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 5: were pushing that brand, and they were also pushing Mike's

246
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 5: Pro brand, which is his boxing gloves and boxing gear. Well,

247
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 5: he had some of those edible ears that he sells

248
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 5: in honor of Evander Holyfield, so he had the gummies

249
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 5: they were handing out. They gave us a cool bag

250
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 5: of some Tyson boxing gloves. And even though Tyson was

251
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 5: super I don't want to say grouchy, but he had

252
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 5: been in there broadcasting for four hours, which you know

253
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 5: what that's like, But for him, four hours without a

254
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,319
Speaker 5: weed break might as well have been a year because

255
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 5: he wanted to get the f out of there and

256
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 5: smoke smoke.

257
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 1: No, I'm surprised in being in Vegas where it is

258
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: nothing but cigarette and weed smoke. Like they won't they

259
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 1: won't allow Mike Tyson to smoke in the studio, like

260
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't get it. Did they anyone explain why?

261
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 1: That is?

262
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 5: The guy that runs the place told us that the

263
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 5: Win went all out with these facilities. They spent over

264
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 5: a million dollars on this TV slash radio setup. It's

265
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 5: brand shiny, spanking new, kind of like our new setup

266
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 5: in Sherman Oaks, California. And so it would be like

267
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 5: coop lighting up inside the new digs. We have just

268
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 5: not gonna see that. So even though he was Mike,

269
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 5: they told him, all right, we're gonna wrap it up.

270
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 5: You did your four hours. I guess they filmed two

271
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 5: of their two hour podcasts back to back. But for Mike,

272
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 5: he already had a long day because it's a fight weekend.

273
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 5: Everybody's trying to get a piece of him. Everybody was

274
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 5: trying to interview him to get his prediction on the

275
00:14:55,920 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 5: big Garcia fight and Tank Davis. Mike was a already tired,

276
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 5: you know, from being picked at, but then he had

277
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 5: to do his own show, his own hot boxing podcast.

278
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 5: But it was funny to watch him walk out of

279
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 5: the main studio. I wasn't the only one. Cavino looked

280
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 5: down too. Mike has this blinged out shirt on. It's

281
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 5: like some shiny thread. It looked like he must have

282
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 5: dropped one thousand dollars on his shirt, but then on

283
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 5: his feet some new balanced dad shoes. Oh my gosh.

284
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, look the baddest man on the planet, iron like ty.

285
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 1: That's kid dynamite.

286
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 5: Yeah. Man, the one thousand dollars shirt, but the dad shoes.

287
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 5: He came out and he gave both Covino and Rich

288
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 5: a hug. Obviously, he's a big part of our Tuesdays

289
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 5: at the Network with Tyson Tuesdays and Iron Mike Trivia.

290
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 5: So him and his camp gave us giveaways to give

291
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 5: out his prizes on Tuesday, and he only posed for

292
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 5: one picture before he got out of there to smoke,

293
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 5: and that was with you know and Rich, which was

294
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 5: really nice. But as he walked away, Cavina looked at

295
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 5: me and he was like, did you see his dad shoes?

296
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: That's your that's your future, Danny g your future. He's

297
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: only he's not actually that much older than us. I think.

298
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 1: I don't know how old is Tyson. I don't even know.

299
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: He's got to be got to me in his fifties.

300
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 5: But yeah, he's not bigger than us. I could take him.

301
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 1: You think I'd like to see that. He's not very tall.

302
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 1: Does his kid look like him? Does his son?

303
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 5: Yeah? His son did look like him.

304
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, got a bunch of kids, U he does, Mike.

305
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 5: So really nice kid, very well spoken, and yeah he

306
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 5: helps his dad at the ranch.

307
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: The weed ranch, Tyson must have. I bet you he's

308
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 1: made more money from weed than he had boxing.

309
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 5: They're not wrong. His manager told us that Tyson's weed

310
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 5: company right now sells the most weed in America?

311
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: Is that right?

312
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 5: Wow?

313
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: How about that? Think about that heavyweight champion of the world,

314
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 1: all those big fights with Lennox Lewis and all the

315
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: different fights over the years. But he was part of

316
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 1: one of the great one of the great failed radio promotions.

317
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: We were in the late nineties, I think it was

318
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety seven, and we'd rent out the radio station,

319
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 1: would rent out venues in Hollywood and they'd have listener

320
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,919
Speaker 1: parties for the big pay per view fights, and it

321
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: was the Whiskey of Go Go, I think it was

322
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 1: the It was either the Whiskey of Go Go or

323
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: the Viper Room, which I don't think is around anymore.

324
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,399
Speaker 1: But they rented out one of these places in Hollywood

325
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,719
Speaker 1: for the Tyson fight with the Vander Holyfield, which ended

326
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:54,639
Speaker 1: with Tyson getting the munchies fighting off the ear of

327
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 1: holy Field. And the people that were there at the

328
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 1: party were so upset they wanted like refunds and stuff

329
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,920
Speaker 1: because the way the fight is. I'm like, no, I

330
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 1: don't think we're gonna get a no refunds, No, no,

331
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: I don't think you know. The program director was freaking out.

332
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: It was like a big, a big shit show, is

333
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 1: what it was. I'm a man, I'm forty and I

334
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: know we played this not that long ago. But today

335
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 1: is the day. Today is a big day. It's April

336
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 1: twenty ninth.

337
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, your birthday, your birthday.

338
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 1: It's a big day for me. But it's also a

339
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:38,119
Speaker 1: big day because this is the fortieth anniversary. I believe

340
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:42,359
Speaker 1: it's the fortieth anniversary of the greatest rant of all time,

341
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 1: the Lee Ilia rant, which is my favorite. I'm so

342
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,119
Speaker 1: happy that I was born on this day. So this

343
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: happened in nineteen eighty three, April twenty ninth, nineteen eighty three,

344
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: so I believe I'm right. You go eighty three to

345
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 1: ninety three to two thousand and three, twan thirteen, twenty

346
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,439
Speaker 1: twenty three. So this fortieth anniversary of Lee Ilia, the

347
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 1: Cub manager. After a Cub Dodger game early in the season,

348
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: Cubs got off to a bad start. It was not

349
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:15,159
Speaker 1: a good situation and normally I would not play this again, Danny,

350
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 1: but we're gonna play it right here, and this is

351
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: the day to do it. It is the single greatest

352
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:25,920
Speaker 1: rant in the history of coaches rants, the gold standard

353
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 1: the great lee Ilia. Let's go to the audio tape.

354
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 3: I'll tell you one fucking thing. I hope we get

355
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,880
Speaker 3: fucking hotter and shit, just to stuff it up them

356
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 3: three thousand fucking people that show up every fucking day,

357
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 3: because if they're the real Chicago fucking fans, they can

358
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 3: kiss my fucking hands right downtown and print it. They're

359
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 3: really really behind you around here, my fucking hands.

360
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 5: The fuck am I supposed to do?

361
00:19:57,880 --> 00:19:59,919
Speaker 3: Go out there and let my fucking players get destroy

362
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 3: every day and be quiet about it for the fucking

363
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 3: nickel Dine people to show up. The motherfuckers don't even work.

364
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 3: That's why they're out at the fucking game. They only

365
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 3: go out and get a fucking job and find out

366
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,520
Speaker 3: what it's like to go out there in a fucking living.

367
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 3: Eighty five percent of the fucking world work it. The

368
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 3: other fifteen come out here the fucking playground for the cocksuckers.

369
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 3: Rip them, motherfuckers, rip them tuck the cocksuckers. What the

370
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 3: fucking players, god guys fusing their fucking ass and them

371
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:37,120
Speaker 3: fucking people do. And that's the cut, my fucking ant.

372
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 3: They talk about the great fucking support that the players

373
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 3: get around here. I haven't seen it this fucking there.

374
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 3: The name of the game is hit the ball, catch

375
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 3: the ball, and get the fucking job done. Right now,

376
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,719
Speaker 3: we have more losses than we have wins. The fucking

377
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 3: changes that have happened in the Cup organization are multifolds.

378
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 3: They don't show because we're five and fourteen, and unfortunately

379
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:10,199
Speaker 3: that's the criteria of them. Some fifteen motherfucking percent that

380
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 3: come out to day baseball. The other eighty five percent

381
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 3: are earning a living. It'll take more than a five

382
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 3: and thirteen or five and fourteen to destroy the makeup

383
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:25,159
Speaker 3: of this club. I guarantee you that there's some fucking

384
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 3: pros out there that want to fucking.

385
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:27,400
Speaker 1: Play this game.

386
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 3: But you're sucking a fucking sigma, the fucking Dodgers and

387
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,640
Speaker 3: the Phillies and the Cardinals and all that sheep shit.

388
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 3: All these mother fucking editorials about say and fucking the

389
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 3: philliitis and all that shit that's they're sickening. It's unbelievable,

390
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,879
Speaker 3: it really is. It's a disheartening fucking situation we're in

391
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 3: right now, five and fourteen. Doesn't the gate all that

392
00:21:55,240 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 3: work one hundred and forty three fucking games left. What

393
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,159
Speaker 3: I'm trying to say is, don't rip them fucking guys

394
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 3: out there.

395
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 5: Rip me.

396
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,640
Speaker 3: Do you want to rip somebody? Rip my fucking hand,

397
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 3: But don't rip them fucking guys because they're given everything

398
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 3: they can give. But once we hit that fucking groove,

399
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 3: it'll flow, and it will flow. The talent's there. I

400
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,879
Speaker 3: don't know how to make it any Clearancey, I'm frustrated.

401
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 3: I'll guarantee I'm frustrated. It'd be different if I walked

402
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 3: in this room every day at eight thirty, I saw

403
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 3: a bunch of guys. They didn't give a shit. They

404
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 3: give a shit, and it's a tough National League.

405
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 1: Eese, oh man, of all the days. Day on my birthday,

406
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: that's what a great gift. I was a little kid.

407
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 5: Well, I'm saying you can, uh, you can ask for

408
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 5: whatever audio you would like today, but that one was

409
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 5: so nice we had to do it twice.

410
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, And some have said, why why would you do

411
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,679
Speaker 1: the podcast? It's your birthday, you should take the podcast up,

412
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 1: And I say, no, dandy, no, this is this is

413
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: not the work. You know, It's pales in comparison to

414
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,119
Speaker 1: what other people do, have real jobs and where they

415
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: have to pave roads and do construction and things like

416
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: that and physical I mean, we're mentally drained at the

417
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 1: end of the week. But you know, at the same time,

418
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,400
Speaker 1: it's fun. We like doing it. And plus you got

419
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,400
Speaker 1: to keep doing it until they pull the microphone away

420
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 1: from you. Isn't that the way that works, right? I

421
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 1: think that's the way that works.

422
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 5: Oh outswinging.

423
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to keep doing it because eventually they

424
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 1: won't give you the opportunity. Got to keep going. Malar Merch.

425
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 1: Malard Merch a tremendous success. It's nobody can buy the

426
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 1: shirts anymore. But we had the Minnesota Malard meat and

427
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 1: green shirt which was available limited time. We talked about

428
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 1: it last week on the podcast. We had overwhelming support

429
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 1: from the Mallard Militia, which is great. It's a limited

430
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 1: edition shirt, it's purple, it's got the the Ben Mahler

431
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 1: Show name on it, the silhouette of the state of

432
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:01,119
Speaker 1: Minnesota and all of that. And so those will be

433
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: sent out. You should be getting them before the meet

434
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: and greet, and I'm happy to report a lot of

435
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 1: people that appeers order those who are not going to

436
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 1: actually attend the event and one woman in particular I

437
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,360
Speaker 1: would like to thank, and I don't think she wants

438
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,120
Speaker 1: me to say her name, at least not her real name.

439
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,439
Speaker 1: But she's a super fan of the show in Minnesota, Danny,

440
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: and she decided to help support the Malard Merch movement.

441
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 1: I guess she wants more malor merch. She bought I

442
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:38,120
Speaker 1: think one fan bought twenty five shirts, right, yeah, twenty

443
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 1: five or twenty six shirts. She said she's going to

444
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 1: give them out to her friends. She said she wishes

445
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,639
Speaker 1: they all listen, but she said some of them do

446
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,159
Speaker 1: and all whatnot. I guess maybe they'll start listening and

447
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:49,919
Speaker 1: all that. But it was really great.

448
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 5: Here's an idea for her, ben she can do a

449
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,199
Speaker 5: hit at the meet and greet. She could do Mallard

450
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 5: or Militia trivia and she's like her own street team.

451
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 5: She has prizes. Yeah.

452
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: See, that's a great idea because people have been emailing me, Danny,

453
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,159
Speaker 1: and they're saying, well, what kind of events are we have?

454
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:08,919
Speaker 1: What are we having at the meet and greet? And

455
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 1: my response is always, well, it's just kind of me

456
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 1: hanging out, you know, me talking to saying hello, and

457
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:17,120
Speaker 1: you can meet other listeners but a Mather Show theme trivia,

458
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: which would either be one of the greatest things of

459
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 1: all time or a disaster where no one gets it right.

460
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 1: And I'm sitting there like, oh my god, what Jimminy cricket?

461
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,879
Speaker 1: What happened? So it could go one of two ways.

462
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: But it's already gonna be a circus under the big Top,

463
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 1: like I'm gonna be the ringleader. We've got Spence, Cycer,

464
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:44,679
Speaker 1: Regina who's helping put this together, Doc Mike. There's a

465
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 1: couple of listeners in Florida that are considering flying in.

466
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: We have one from northern California, one of our buddies,

467
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: a big forty nine er fans gonna be flying in.

468
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,359
Speaker 1: I've had people email me from Canada, obviously a lot

469
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 1: of people Wisconsin who are going to drive over, which

470
00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 1: is not that far. And so I'm excited. I'm really excited.

471
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a lot of fun, and it sounds

472
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 1: like we're gonna get a pretty good turnout. But I

473
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,399
Speaker 1: have no idea who's gonna show up. But as far

474
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,399
Speaker 1: as the Mallard merch, I did want to thank the

475
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 1: people that purchased the shirts, and I did see some

476
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 1: familiar names. I don't know if they want me to

477
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 1: say their names or not, but thank you. I know

478
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 1: there was one of our big fans and okay see

479
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 1: for example. And so this was a test run. And

480
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,199
Speaker 1: if you guys want you know those of you that

481
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 1: bought the shirt and those of you that didn't buy

482
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:31,480
Speaker 1: the shirt but thought maybe you should have bought the

483
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: shirt and you missed out on it. My idea is

484
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,640
Speaker 1: later on, maybe in the summer or the end of summer,

485
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 1: we'll try to do something again, maybe a more generic

486
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: shirt that like a Mallard militia theme thing. So we'll

487
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 1: see what happens with that. But I'm happy to report

488
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,879
Speaker 1: that one very well. We have the backscratcher segment, Danny,

489
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: the backscratcher segment. As you scratch our back, we will

490
00:26:55,960 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: scratch your back. And how many reviews did we get

491
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 1: this week to chase the four hundred? Did we get zero,

492
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 1: one or three reviews this week?

493
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 5: Danny G. I think the listeners were just as busy

494
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,920
Speaker 5: as we were with the brand new studios.

495
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:21,679
Speaker 1: Zero surprise, surprise, surprise, Danny. We got one fun review.

496
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: One review and here it is. It says five stars,

497
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 1: five stars. This is the Apple podcast page, which for

498
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: some reason the management look at and they like, I

499
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,199
Speaker 1: don't understand why. It makes no sense to me, but

500
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,200
Speaker 1: they do. These are people that live different lives than us.

501
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: So this one says, if you enjoy fun facts, this

502
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:50,360
Speaker 1: is the podcast for you. Out the Alien O piner Oh,

503

Speaker 1: Juggernaut on Fox Sports Radio weeknights two am to six am.

511
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: This sounds like something I wrote. The podcast is constantly

512
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 1: evolving and only getting better. Tune in eight days a

Speaker 5: He said, sounds like commercial copy I write.

516
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: This is a professional copy. I did not write this.

517
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 1: You can someday tell your friends that you were a

518
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 1: listener to Ben Maller before he was awarded the Marconi

519
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 1: for excellence and radio broadcasting. That is, if he is

520
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: nominated for the aforementioned award by the people that care

521
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: about this review.

522
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 5: Ben's beIN Big. Ben Maller is an American sports radio

523
00:28:56,160 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 5: host weekday radio show up Fox Sports Radio three Pacific Time.

524
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 1: Well, al thank you very much. Alf. Actually this is funny.

525
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: So Alv tried to nominate me for a Marconi Award,

526
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: but then realize the only way you can be nominated

527
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 1: is if your employer nominates you. And I hate to

528
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 1: inform Alf that there are about seven thousand people that

529
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 1: this company will promote for a Marconi Award before me,

530
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 1: and probably as it should be. So my advice to

531
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 1: Alvin if you want to help, There's all kinds of awards, right,

532
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: There's all kinds of awards out there, so just find someone.

533
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 1: There's like pot, there's podcasting awards. There's all kinds of

534
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 1: other awards, so you know, hey, why not if you're

00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 5: Oh hi, o, wow, please make a little production piece

540
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 5: for this, like something about fun facts are so fun.

541
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,240
Speaker 5: Fun fact and then we'll come on with a fun fact.

542
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 5: Alf will love this. The day that we opened the

543
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 5: brand new Fox Sports Radio studios, whose birthday was it?

544
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 1: Whose birthday was it?

545
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 5: Birthday was a long time ago, but it was his birthday.

546
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 5: I do not know Marconi?

547
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 1: Is that right?

548
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 5: Was Marconi's birthday the day we opened up the brand

549
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 5: new studios.

550
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 1: Is that why they chose that day?

551
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 5: Is that the no I talked to Scott Shapiro. He

552
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 5: had no idea, but he said, now that you told

553
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 5: me that, I'm gonna lie and tell people that.

554
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 1: Of course it's the way. Yeah, who knew? Amazing?

555
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 5: So the Marconi Studios, sorry, that's what we should call them.

556
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 5: They are the Marconi studios.

557
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Marconi uh Premiere or whatever you know. Put

558
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 1: some spots or tire round.

559
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 5: Oh and we got to put Uncle Frank in there too.

560
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 1: That's right, the great And then that was the talk

561
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 1: and the Great Frank Pollock, the big cod p May

562
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: he rest in peace. The Great Frank Pollack are old engineering.

563
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 1: They're supposed to do something for him and all that.

564
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 1: Uh so we have, but we can either do a

565
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:15,479
Speaker 1: little get scientifical or pop culture. Pop goes the culture

566
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 1: which one you want to a couple of stories? Just

567
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: a couple of stories.

568
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 5: What do you think that you Let's steal a couple

569
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 5: of scientificals.

570
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: All right, let's get scientifical. A tribute to the old

571
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 1: pen and Teller show Bullshit, where we give you science

572
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 1: stories and then we try to figure out whether we

573
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 1: believe it or not, or whether or not it is bullshit.

574
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 1: So here's a a fun story from the science community.

575
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:50,000
Speaker 1: A new study has linked French fries to depression. Yeah,

576
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 1: are you a French fry guy? Dan?

577
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 5: I like French?

578
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 1: Who doesn't like French fries? I don't know anybody that

579
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: doesn't like friends.

580
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 5: I like them, but I skipped them all the time.

581
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 5: If there's a combo where fries arecluded, I get something else.

582
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 5: Why Because I feel like a fat whale if I

583
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 5: eat a whole bunch of fries.

584
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: Well, I like to feel like a whale because I

585
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: only eat once a day. So I'm like, what ever,

586
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 1: might as well enjoy yourself. But according to a study

587
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 1: from the Environmental Sciences that was published in the journal PNAS,

588
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what that is. It's all word slid

589
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 1: to me. They found that frequent fried food consumption, especially

590
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: fried potatoes aka French front is strongly associated with twelve

591
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 1: percent to seven percent higher risk of anxiety and depression.

592
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: So the new research suggesting that French fries are linked

593
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 1: to depression, I'm going bullshit on this. I'm going I'm

594
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 1: going bullshit on this. So that that's my hot take

595
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 1: on that. I don't buy it because.

596
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 5: People are scientists on the radio.

597
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean there's people that are health health nuts

598
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:04,479
Speaker 1: that don't eat French fies, that are depressed and all that. Well,

599
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 1: here's another fun study from the scientifical world. Men like

600
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 1: meat because it makes them feel manly. Ah, the men

601
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 1: enjoy me? How about that? For a study study, participants

602
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:24,239
Speaker 1: were surveyed on their perceived masculinity or femininity. They were

603
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 1: also asked about their views on meat consumption and veganism.

604
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 1: And those who can form most the gender roles see

605
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 1: eating meat as natural. There you go, and so they

606
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 1: put that together and they we're all Neanderthals if you

607
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 1: go far enough back. That's the research from a university

608
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 1: in Australia. They surveyed five and forty four men and women. Nah,

609
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know if I believe that one

610
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 1: eat zero for two on that. Oh, here's a one

611
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,120
Speaker 1: from the space world. Are aliens trying to contact the

612
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 1: mother Earth? Astronomers have detected twenty five new fast radio

613
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 1: bursts from outer space.

614
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 5: Do do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do

615
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 5: Do Do Do Do do doo. Yeah, they're coming. Yeah.

616
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,360
Speaker 1: There's also another story in one of the science journals

617
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:30,680
Speaker 1: that says the scientists say alien contact with Earth could

618
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:34,000
