0:00:05.480 --> 0:00:09.240
<v Speaker 2>a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants

0:00:09.280 --> 0:00:12.560
<v Speaker 2>of the old Republic, a soul fashion of fairness. He

0:00:12.640 --> 0:00:15.560
<v Speaker 2>treats crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as the

0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:17.520
<v Speaker 2>rich pill poppers in the penthouse.

0:00:18.120 --> 0:00:18.480

<v Speaker 1>Danny g Radio and we have a home inger, a

0:00:51.640 --> 0:00:56.200
<v Speaker 1>hum inger of a story for you. So, Danny, you're

0:00:56.200 --> 0:00:58.440
<v Speaker 1>never supposed to know how they make the hot dogs,

0:00:58.520 --> 0:01:00.600
<v Speaker 1>right they say that, don't. You're not supposed to know

0:01:00.640 --> 0:01:03.440
<v Speaker 1>how they make the hot dogs. But on this day

0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 1>here we need to go behind the microphone. So both

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:11.640
<v Speaker 1>of us are very busy. We have first world jobs,

0:01:12.080 --> 0:01:14.920
<v Speaker 1>first world problems, right, dannyway, We're both very lucky we

0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:18.399
<v Speaker 1>were able to survive and radio and broadcasting and stuff.

0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:22.679
<v Speaker 1>So and this podcast is a labor of love, right,

0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:25.920
<v Speaker 1>we do it get paid a lot of money for this.

0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:28.240
<v Speaker 1>It's just, you know, we do it because we like it.

0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:30.280
<v Speaker 1>It's fun and.

0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 3>I'm actually on an internship pretty much.

0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:36.479
<v Speaker 1>And so so anyway, we do it for fun and

0:01:36.600 --> 0:01:38.720
<v Speaker 1>we have a good time. And fortunately we built up

0:01:38.720 --> 0:01:40.600
<v Speaker 1>a pretty good following and you guys have been great

0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:42.679
<v Speaker 1>and you listen to the podcast every weekend while you,

0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:46.039
<v Speaker 1>according to the feedback we get while you do your

0:01:46.520 --> 0:01:49.280
<v Speaker 1>your honeydeist or you're just hanging out at the house

0:01:49.320 --> 0:01:53.880
<v Speaker 1>whatever you might be doing. So great. So we recorded

0:01:53.920 --> 0:01:58.760
<v Speaker 1>a very odd hour for us. And I've been doing

0:01:58.840 --> 0:02:02.120
<v Speaker 1>this podcast. Oh god, I don't even know, man, it's

0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:04.040
<v Speaker 1>been like, how many years has this been with you?

0:02:04.080 --> 0:02:06.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean it's been three and a half with me

0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:07.360
<v Speaker 3>and I did it.

0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:09.720
<v Speaker 1>With guess it's probably been almost six or seven years.

0:02:09.760 --> 0:02:11.720
<v Speaker 1>I've been doing this Podcast's been a long time. Well,

0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:14.440
<v Speaker 1>it's probably been six years. I think it was like,

0:02:14.520 --> 0:02:16.280
<v Speaker 1>I think it's like three and three or something like that.

0:02:16.680 --> 0:02:18.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm not a numbers guy, but that doesn't seem to

0:02:18.639 --> 0:02:20.920
<v Speaker 2>add up no matter.

0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:23.400
<v Speaker 1>So, for the first time in the history of the

0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Fifth Hour podcast, we had done the podcast, as they say,

0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:32.360
<v Speaker 1>the hay was in the barn. We had done the

0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:33.320
<v Speaker 1>work and all that.

0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:36.960
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, we signed off. Thanks, we'll see it for the

0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:40.320
<v Speaker 4>mail bag. Saturday was in the can as they say.

0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:45.119
<v Speaker 1>Later skater. And then I sent ua message with three

0:02:45.240 --> 0:02:46.240
<v Speaker 1>letters in it.

0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:50.200
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I thought you were a Mets fan. Suddenly it

0:02:50.240 --> 0:02:51.040
<v Speaker 4>said OMG.

0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:58.640
<v Speaker 1>Because I went to save the file for the podcast,

0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:01.600
<v Speaker 1>because we record the podcast, yes, and then you add

0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:04.360
<v Speaker 1>bells and whistles to a Danny and magic touch on

0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:06.520
<v Speaker 1>it put some extra secret sauce in there and all that.

0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:10.359
<v Speaker 1>So so I went to save the file and there

0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:15.320
<v Speaker 1>was no file to save. You got crickets. That is

0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:21.560
<v Speaker 1>all we got files. I thought, well, I know I'm tired,

0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:25.720
<v Speaker 1>but I'm we just did an entire episode of the podcast,

0:03:25.840 --> 0:03:29.200
<v Speaker 1>like there must be a file, Like it's got to

0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:32.760
<v Speaker 1>be a glitch. And so I said, uh, I said omg.

0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:35.880
<v Speaker 1>And then and then I sent you some other other

0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:38.200
<v Speaker 1>messages like I I Yeah.

0:03:38.320 --> 0:03:40.640
<v Speaker 4>So we sat there and talked to each other for

0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:41.360
<v Speaker 4>forty minutes.

0:03:41.680 --> 0:03:43.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and it was a really good show.

0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:47.200
<v Speaker 4>Oh dude, memorable. I think it was probably in our

0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:48.400
<v Speaker 4>top ten of all time.

0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:52.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and we'll likely win as some kind of podcasting award.

0:03:52.160 --> 0:03:54.200
<v Speaker 1>Will likely win as some kind of podcast.

0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:55.800
<v Speaker 3>I'm God because he's the only one who heard it.

0:03:58.600 --> 0:04:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, well, they do say that radio is a

0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:06.320
<v Speaker 1>disposable form of entertainment, but podcasting is not supposed to

0:04:06.320 --> 0:04:09.800
<v Speaker 1>be that, right because everything's recorded and saved and replayed

0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:14.320
<v Speaker 1>and all that. Holy crap on a cracker. All right, Well, well,

0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:16.200
<v Speaker 1>I guess we know what we're gonna be talking about today,

0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:17.880
<v Speaker 1>Danny on this podcast.

0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:20.440
<v Speaker 3>Let me guess what the national day is.

0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:22.600
<v Speaker 1>You want to give it, you want to give it

0:04:22.640 --> 0:04:26.800
<v Speaker 1>a shot, Danny, Yeah, Oh my goodness, holy crap.

0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:27.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:29.840
<v Speaker 4>And for anyone that doesn't think this is live on

0:04:29.880 --> 0:04:32.880
<v Speaker 4>the day I release it to the masses, it is

0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:35.640
<v Speaker 4>four am right now on this Saturday morning.

0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:40.200
<v Speaker 1>Yes, uh wait, what are we doing anyway on this podcast, Dady,

0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:45.920
<v Speaker 1>We've got Dean Martin little clickbait. Back that bus up.

0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:48.840
<v Speaker 1>See on this podcast, I'll say it properly, back back

0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:52.960
<v Speaker 1>bass bus up? All right? This is shame. Yeah, And

0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:56.640
<v Speaker 1>we'll have the frames all the week, but we begin

0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:59.720
<v Speaker 1>with this. So last night, one of the reasons that

0:04:59.760 --> 0:05:05.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm still trying, Danny, my darnedest, to try to

0:05:05.520 --> 0:05:09.760
<v Speaker 1>warm up, Try to warm up. I feel like I

0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:14.760
<v Speaker 1>spent the night in Siberia last night. It was that day,

0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:17.800
<v Speaker 1>that day, different than all other days. It was a

0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:21.800
<v Speaker 1>little Dean Martin action. Baby, it's cold outside. I was

0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:25.680
<v Speaker 1>Santa Claus. I played Santa Claus last night and spent

0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:31.200
<v Speaker 1>my time, my time once a year, four hours strapped

0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:33.440
<v Speaker 1>to the back. I dressed up as Santa Claus, and

0:05:33.480 --> 0:05:35.400
<v Speaker 1>I sat on the back of a fire truck and

0:05:35.440 --> 0:05:39.760
<v Speaker 1>they drove me around and I waved at people back

0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:42.560
<v Speaker 1>and forth, up and down the street, all kinds of streets,

0:05:42.680 --> 0:05:45.960
<v Speaker 1>rich people, poor people, every kind of person. And it

0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 1>was a lot of fun. But I left Nanny. I

0:05:49.040 --> 0:05:54.520
<v Speaker 1>left as Santa Claus, and I came back as frosty

0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:56.920
<v Speaker 1>as the snowman. I mean you talk about blue balls,

0:05:57.360 --> 0:06:00.920
<v Speaker 1>My balls were ice. I mean it was man, was it?

0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:05.479
<v Speaker 1>It was California cold. I love her balls. It was

0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:09.760
<v Speaker 1>California cold. Now. I took all the appropriate steps, all

0:06:09.800 --> 0:06:13.680
<v Speaker 1>the appropriate steps INNY. I had several layers of clothing on.

0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:18.080
<v Speaker 1>I had some some hand warmer things I had. But

0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:20.720
<v Speaker 1>the handwarmers keep the palm of your hand warm. They

0:06:20.720 --> 0:06:21.920
<v Speaker 1>don't keep your fingers.

0:06:22.800 --> 0:06:24.160
<v Speaker 3>How were they in your butt? Crack?

0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:24.880
<v Speaker 2>Well?

0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:27.840
<v Speaker 1>That was my butt felt great, But no, no, I had.

0:06:28.200 --> 0:06:32.240
<v Speaker 1>I had them strategically placed on my my shirt, so

0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:34.880
<v Speaker 1>I had some. I guess those are body warmer as

0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:36.560
<v Speaker 1>they call them. But I had my one of my back.

0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:38.120
<v Speaker 1>The one on the back really worked well. One on

0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:40.320
<v Speaker 1>the chest didn't work that well. And but I had

0:06:40.320 --> 0:06:43.800
<v Speaker 1>these little Santa gloves, these white Santa gloves, and they

0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:47.000
<v Speaker 1>didn't do any of the socks I wore, i'd wol socks.

0:06:47.080 --> 0:06:48.800
<v Speaker 1>My brother who's lived in New York for years, he

0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:52.640
<v Speaker 1>said the most important thing was cool wol socks. He said,

0:06:52.720 --> 0:06:55.400
<v Speaker 1>that's the forget everything else, wol socks. That's what you

0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:56.160
<v Speaker 1>need to keep you warm.

0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:56.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:06:56.520 --> 0:07:00.120
<v Speaker 4>I agree, because your feet really if your feet are cold,

0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:01.960
<v Speaker 4>you can get sick pretty easily.

0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:05.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So it was, uh, it was The wolf socks

0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:08.240
<v Speaker 1>were good. The only thing that really froze was my fingers.

0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:12.200
<v Speaker 1>That was really bad. Those who needs fingers My right

0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:15.360
<v Speaker 1>hand was getting a workout. But it was. It was nice,

0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:17.640
<v Speaker 1>it was fun, wonderful. We had we all had a

0:07:17.640 --> 0:07:19.640
<v Speaker 1>good time. Well, I don't know if everyone had a

0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:22.000
<v Speaker 1>good time. I had a good time seeing the kids smiling.

0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:24.280
<v Speaker 1>I didn't even see that many kids smiling because full

0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:27.080
<v Speaker 1>disclosure on the and I'm gonna send out some photos

0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:29.040
<v Speaker 1>later today. I think later today, who know, I don't

0:07:29.040 --> 0:07:30.200
<v Speaker 1>even know. I remember.

0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:32.080
<v Speaker 3>If not, you're going to be asleep, let's be honest,

0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:33.240
<v Speaker 3>sleeping most of the day.

0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:35.040
<v Speaker 1>But but I'll be sending out some photos at some

0:07:35.040 --> 0:07:39.760
<v Speaker 1>point this weekend of the Santa experience. And I had

0:07:40.040 --> 0:07:43.080
<v Speaker 1>I believe the term is stage lighting, where the light

0:07:43.280 --> 0:07:47.840
<v Speaker 1>was on me. So I was sitting on the back

0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:50.280
<v Speaker 1>of a fire truck waving at people, and I had

0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:52.440
<v Speaker 1>four lights. I had two behind me, two in front

0:07:52.440 --> 0:07:52.600
<v Speaker 1>of me.

0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:55.360
<v Speaker 3>Santa the cellout, suddenly you're on TikTok.

0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:58.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah. So uh so it was great for

0:07:58.440 --> 0:08:01.160
<v Speaker 1>people who were taking photos of Santa. They had a

0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:03.520
<v Speaker 1>nice clear shot. But Santa, you.

0:08:03.800 --> 0:08:06.040
<v Speaker 3>Sound like the Ricky Henderson of Santa's right now, by

0:08:06.040 --> 0:08:07.160
<v Speaker 3>the way. I know, I know.

0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:11.200
<v Speaker 1>It's like being on stage in front of one hundred

0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:15.239
<v Speaker 1>thousand people and you don't know they're out there because

0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:17.520
<v Speaker 1>you can't see them because of the lighting. Whether there

0:08:17.520 --> 0:08:19.400
<v Speaker 1>weren't one hundred thousand people, there were a few people.

0:08:19.440 --> 0:08:20.960
<v Speaker 1>And I would like to point out I say this

0:08:21.040 --> 0:08:24.840
<v Speaker 1>every year. The city I've been asked not to name

0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:28.680
<v Speaker 1>the city that I do this in for reasons I

0:08:28.680 --> 0:08:32.000
<v Speaker 1>can't get into here. But the city that I do

0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:39.680
<v Speaker 1>this in, there are some really really rich people that

0:08:39.800 --> 0:08:42.560
<v Speaker 1>live in this city, like in the hills, and I

0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:46.920
<v Speaker 1>end up waving at them driving up these one road

0:08:47.800 --> 0:08:51.640
<v Speaker 1>winding roads around the mountaintops.

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 3>To go U.

0:08:51.520 --> 0:08:55.440
<v Speaker 1>Crenshaw to these mansions. Yeah, exactly. You know, it's comptent,

0:08:56.160 --> 0:09:00.160
<v Speaker 1>and so making that trip up. And as you the

0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:03.040
<v Speaker 1>further you get up, the more money the houses are,

0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:06.040
<v Speaker 1>the fewer people that come out. Like in the city,

0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:09.200
<v Speaker 1>people come out. A lot of people now will just

0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:12.440
<v Speaker 1>open their front door and wave a lot of that

0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:14.320
<v Speaker 1>because it's cold and they don't want to go outside.

0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:17.640
<v Speaker 1>And then the further we get up, the more the

0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:20.920
<v Speaker 1>property values, the fewer the amount of people that come out.

0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:23.200
<v Speaker 3>Why is that they think they're too good for you?

0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:28.040
<v Speaker 1>I tend to think there's a causation correlation situation. I

0:09:28.080 --> 0:09:32.079
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I mean, maybe not, but either way, there

0:09:32.320 --> 0:09:32.640
<v Speaker 1>were I.

0:09:32.600 --> 0:09:34.960
<v Speaker 3>Don't need juice in. I bought all my own gifts

0:09:34.960 --> 0:09:35.880
<v Speaker 3>through my accountant.

0:09:36.200 --> 0:09:39.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'm my own Santa Man exactly. I don't. I

0:09:39.000 --> 0:09:40.840
<v Speaker 1>don't need you and your little sant outfit.

0:09:41.000 --> 0:09:43.800
<v Speaker 3>I'm a self made Santa.

0:09:43.040 --> 0:09:45.319
<v Speaker 1>So onlike years past, I did not see as many

0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:47.480
<v Speaker 1>people there were. I'm told there were many people. I'd

0:09:47.840 --> 0:09:50.199
<v Speaker 1>kind of blocked my I use my hand to block

0:09:50.280 --> 0:09:52.480
<v Speaker 1>the light so I could see the people. Had to

0:09:52.559 --> 0:09:54.160
<v Speaker 1>use my hand to block the light to see the people.

0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:58.080
<v Speaker 1>So there was a good, a good turnout. I didn't

0:09:58.120 --> 0:10:00.560
<v Speaker 1>see that many of them. And then I got back

0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:03.800
<v Speaker 1>to the to the police station where I changed out

0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:05.520
<v Speaker 1>of my Santa suit. But before I did that, though,

0:10:05.960 --> 0:10:08.840
<v Speaker 1>my niece and my nephew came over. They lived not

0:10:08.920 --> 0:10:12.000
<v Speaker 1>far away from that town. And my my sweet niece,

0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:17.080
<v Speaker 1>beautiful young girl, and she she says, yeah, Uncle Benny,

0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:21.199
<v Speaker 1>were you Santa Claus on that fire truck? I said, no,

0:10:21.280 --> 0:10:23.560
<v Speaker 1>I would never do that. I would never hit on

0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:26.839
<v Speaker 1>a fire truck. Are you kidding me? Come on? And uh,

0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:30.400
<v Speaker 1>it was. It was quite cute and amusing. And my

0:10:30.400 --> 0:10:32.240
<v Speaker 1>my nephew didn't really care about any of it. He

0:10:32.320 --> 0:10:34.920
<v Speaker 1>was just kind of had a goofy face and then

0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:36.360
<v Speaker 1>that whole thing. So, but it was a lot of

0:10:36.400 --> 0:10:37.040
<v Speaker 1>it was a lot of fun.

0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:37.280
<v Speaker 3>It was.

0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:39.880
<v Speaker 1>It was a good time and the only issue was

0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:42.319
<v Speaker 1>getting off the fire truck. Then, and you probably heard

0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:45.040
<v Speaker 1>about this maybe in another life, but I was very

0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:54.560
<v Speaker 1>concerned about calling. I'm a rather large human being and

0:10:55.480 --> 0:10:57.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm not as nimble as I used to be back

0:10:57.320 --> 0:11:00.640
<v Speaker 1>when I was Benny the ballerina in my younger It

0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:03.960
<v Speaker 1>would have been no problem the gymnastic part of my life,

0:11:03.960 --> 0:11:07.040
<v Speaker 1>but that's in the past. So I sat at the

0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:09.000
<v Speaker 1>edge of the side. Actually it was the back of

0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:11.040
<v Speaker 1>the fire truck. I sat at the end of it,

0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:14.000
<v Speaker 1>and I was contemplating, what do I do here? What's

0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:15.960
<v Speaker 1>the move? What is the move to get off the

0:11:16.000 --> 0:11:19.960
<v Speaker 1>fire truck? And I waited. I was going to do

0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:22.600
<v Speaker 1>it on my own, and I thought, well, in my head,

0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:25.920
<v Speaker 1>I fell, I slipped and then I went broke my

0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:29.240
<v Speaker 1>left arm in three places. And it became clickbait, and

0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:31.960
<v Speaker 1>then it was a big problem. I am such a

0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:32.880
<v Speaker 1>radio loser.

0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:37.160
<v Speaker 4>Aggregating Is that the big word you guys used on

0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:37.960
<v Speaker 4>your website.

0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:42.840
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Aggregation is the word. You're taking a story and

0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:48.559
<v Speaker 1>you're getting you're getting listeners or viewers based on that.

0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:52.160
<v Speaker 4>And you're adding to it. If you had broken bones,

0:11:52.200 --> 0:11:54.400
<v Speaker 4>then that's not clickbait. I would have wanted to see that.

0:11:55.080 --> 0:11:58.680
<v Speaker 4>But some clickbait I've been dealing with over the past

0:11:59.040 --> 0:12:01.959
<v Speaker 4>couple of days. Now you're going to love this because

0:12:02.880 --> 0:12:08.160
<v Speaker 4>you are intertwined into the story. Flashback to last weekend's podcast.

0:12:08.600 --> 0:12:12.480
<v Speaker 4>All right, I did something that no Fifth Hour podcast

0:12:12.520 --> 0:12:13.480
<v Speaker 4>listeners should ever do.

0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:14.240
<v Speaker 1>What's that?

0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:16.599
<v Speaker 3>I took advice from Ben Maller.

0:12:16.720 --> 0:12:20.160
<v Speaker 1>How dare you? How dare you? Now?

0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:24.320
<v Speaker 4>Actually it started out good because we were talking Mike

0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:29.199
<v Speaker 4>Tyson and his PR people, one in New York, one

0:12:29.240 --> 0:12:32.520
<v Speaker 4>in Vegas there with him, and your advice was, don't

0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:35.520
<v Speaker 4>go with their question sheet. Just stay true to what

0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:38.320
<v Speaker 4>Covino and Rich want to ask them and screw the

0:12:38.360 --> 0:12:39.040
<v Speaker 4>PR people.

0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:39.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:12:39.480 --> 0:12:41.160
<v Speaker 1>I think my advice was you tell them you're going

0:12:41.200 --> 0:12:43.320
<v Speaker 1>to do exactly what they want you to do, and

0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:44.240
<v Speaker 1>then do whatever you want.

0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:48.480
<v Speaker 4>Yes, Monday afternoon, I go in for the pre show

0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:51.199
<v Speaker 4>meeting and I show them the questions, and I said,

0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:53.959
<v Speaker 4>you do not read these questions. You ask him your

0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:56.760
<v Speaker 4>own questions. He's a big boy, you know, he's done

0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:59.679
<v Speaker 4>a lot of interviews. He can deflect it termed a

0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:00.640
<v Speaker 4>bob and weave.

0:13:00.720 --> 0:13:02.560
<v Speaker 1>I think that's the term. He can bob and weave.

0:13:02.960 --> 0:13:08.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, interview goes great, it's a zoom interview. Even better.

0:13:08.440 --> 0:13:12.320
<v Speaker 4>The guys can see his response and his interactions.

0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:16.240
<v Speaker 1>People have some mic bites together, some edibles, no sweet cheeks,

0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:21.520
<v Speaker 1>Mike sweet Mike sweet cheeks. And then the tagline is

0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:29.560
<v Speaker 1>everybody's eating them. I'm trying to get in on that, Mike.

0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:33.320
<v Speaker 4>Everything's going great. Then they ask him about the fight

0:13:33.400 --> 0:13:37.200
<v Speaker 4>with Jake Paul. Covino says, what was Paul's power like?

0:13:37.920 --> 0:13:41.120
<v Speaker 4>And Mike said, I don't remember. I don't really remember

0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:44.320
<v Speaker 4>much of the fight. He says, I remember the first round,

0:13:44.440 --> 0:13:48.560
<v Speaker 4>coming back after the first round, and then him bowing. Well, Ben,

0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:51.679
<v Speaker 4>what do you think the national outlets have picked up

0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:53.360
<v Speaker 4>on in the past few days.

0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Let's see here. I'm gonna go with the last part

0:13:56.800 --> 0:13:57.520
<v Speaker 1>for a thousand.

0:13:58.160 --> 0:14:02.560
<v Speaker 4>The headline from New York Post dot com Mike Tyson

0:14:02.679 --> 0:14:09.520
<v Speaker 4>makes terrifying Jake paulfight revelation. Then the headline from People

0:14:09.640 --> 0:14:13.559
<v Speaker 4>dot com, Mike Tyson says he doesn't remember much of

0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:14.480
<v Speaker 4>Jake Paul fight.

0:14:15.120 --> 0:14:17.000
<v Speaker 3>Don't know what the hell happened.

0:14:17.559 --> 0:14:20.920
<v Speaker 4>Both of these articles, Benny, they're alluding to the fact

0:14:20.920 --> 0:14:27.840
<v Speaker 4>that maybe he has early dementia. It started out where

0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:32.080
<v Speaker 4>the PR people loved the interview, even the fact that

0:14:32.160 --> 0:14:35.040
<v Speaker 4>they asked that question about his butt cheeks. Mike Laught

0:14:35.160 --> 0:14:38.000
<v Speaker 4>had fun with it. After the interview was over, they

0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:40.760
<v Speaker 4>sent an email to me saying it was great. It

0:14:40.840 --> 0:14:43.120
<v Speaker 4>was awesome. He had fun, and I was like, you

0:14:43.160 --> 0:14:45.280
<v Speaker 4>know what, I did the right thing. It all worked out.

0:14:45.720 --> 0:14:49.360
<v Speaker 4>But now and if you google Mike Tyson on your

0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:52.000
<v Speaker 4>device in front of you, yeah, I'm sure you could

0:14:52.000 --> 0:14:55.240
<v Speaker 4>see that this has now spun out of control where

0:14:55.280 --> 0:14:58.760
<v Speaker 4>people are making a big deal about this one clickbait piece.

0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:01.880
<v Speaker 4>And when he said I don't remember all of it

0:15:02.240 --> 0:15:04.440
<v Speaker 4>to me at the time, when I was watching this

0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:07.440
<v Speaker 4>interview live in the studio, it felt like he was

0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:10.880
<v Speaker 4>deflecting a little bit, like what you predicted, Yeah.

0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:12.600
<v Speaker 1>If you don't want to answer it. It's like what

0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:15.320
<v Speaker 1>coaches do after football games. Well, I gotta watch the tape,

0:15:15.400 --> 0:15:17.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, I gotta go walk. I gotta go back

0:15:17.120 --> 0:15:19.120
<v Speaker 1>and watch the tape. And I don't want to talk

0:15:19.120 --> 0:15:21.000
<v Speaker 1>about it until I watched the DAVE because they know,

0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:23.520
<v Speaker 1>like a few days later, nobody cares in this case,

0:15:23.920 --> 0:15:25.960
<v Speaker 1>like I don't remember, you know whatever.

0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:28.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and he admitted that he hasn't watched it back.

0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:32.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, here's the Hindu Times. I always get my news.

0:15:32.600 --> 0:15:35.880
<v Speaker 1>From the Hindu Times, Mike Tyson makes shocking admission about

0:15:35.920 --> 0:15:38.520
<v Speaker 1>Jake Paul fight. I don't remember the baddest man on

0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:45.640
<v Speaker 1>the planet, says us. Here's another one from some boxing website.

0:15:45.680 --> 0:15:49.480
<v Speaker 1>Mike Tyson blanked out during Jake Paul fight. Uh, there's

0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:54.360
<v Speaker 1>a click on that thing. There's a British publication. Tyson

0:15:54.400 --> 0:15:59.000
<v Speaker 1>makes worrying admission reveals injuries after losing Jake Paul boxing fight.

0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh there's a bunch of these stories. Yeah, he was

0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:04.920
<v Speaker 1>just there to get paid. He got his money and

0:16:04.920 --> 0:16:07.600
<v Speaker 1>all that. But the whole aggregation game, and I did

0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:09.520
<v Speaker 1>that for a long time when I ran my website,

0:16:09.560 --> 0:16:13.040
<v Speaker 1>which was a gossip website. It was aggregating the news.

0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:16.880
<v Speaker 1>And it's really the modern aggregation. Not that I didn't

0:16:16.880 --> 0:16:19.560
<v Speaker 1>partake in this, because I certainly did some of it

0:16:19.600 --> 0:16:21.920
<v Speaker 1>back in the day. But it's like playing the children's

0:16:21.920 --> 0:16:28.680
<v Speaker 1>game Telephone, where you internationally pop it's called it's called

0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:32.440
<v Speaker 1>other places, different names, but you just start out, you

0:16:32.560 --> 0:16:35.720
<v Speaker 1>tell one person in the room, you whisper something person

0:16:35.760 --> 0:16:39.520
<v Speaker 1>to person, and then it changes and then at the

0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:41.680
<v Speaker 1>end you compare with the final messages to what the

0:16:41.680 --> 0:16:45.080
<v Speaker 1>original messages and it's never the same and aggregations the

0:16:45.080 --> 0:16:47.560
<v Speaker 1>same thing. It's like you have to add a little

0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:51.560
<v Speaker 1>extra garlic, a little pepper, maybe chienne pepper on top

0:16:51.600 --> 0:16:54.080
<v Speaker 1>of the story, and so it changes it. You want

0:16:54.080 --> 0:16:56.680
<v Speaker 1>to put your own spin on it, and then it

0:16:56.840 --> 0:16:59.800
<v Speaker 1>changes it enough and by the time it gets repackaged

0:16:59.840 --> 0:17:01.080
<v Speaker 1>like the New York you said it, I think you

0:17:01.160 --> 0:17:03.040
<v Speaker 1>told me the New York Post was the one that

0:17:03.120 --> 0:17:06.720
<v Speaker 1>really it kind of blew up from the New York Post. Yeah,

0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:11.159
<v Speaker 1>they have a worldwide audience and they have their spind

0:17:11.160 --> 0:17:12.639
<v Speaker 1>on it, and then people have to make it. They

0:17:12.640 --> 0:17:14.760
<v Speaker 1>can't say it's word for word from the New York Post,

0:17:15.119 --> 0:17:18.200
<v Speaker 1>so then they have to draw their own addition onto

0:17:18.240 --> 0:17:22.000
<v Speaker 1>the story. And then it's it's like legos. You keep

0:17:22.000 --> 0:17:25.119
<v Speaker 1>adding legos, it changes the design or whatever. You know

0:17:25.160 --> 0:17:26.040
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying changes.

0:17:26.160 --> 0:17:26.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:17:26.359 --> 0:17:29.160
<v Speaker 4>Well, benmallard dot com is back because I blame you

0:17:29.600 --> 0:17:32.080
<v Speaker 4>for his pr people now being pissed about this.

0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:35.120
<v Speaker 3>Hey, this publicity.

0:17:34.640 --> 0:17:39.200
<v Speaker 1>Tell you something. Somebody. I believe in the magic Christian

0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:42.440
<v Speaker 1>that you know, everyone's got a price. If somebody wants

0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:44.880
<v Speaker 1>to write me a big enough check, I will absolutely

0:17:44.920 --> 0:17:49.160
<v Speaker 1>bring back Benmallard dot com bring that back. Of course

0:17:49.160 --> 0:17:50.720
<v Speaker 1>it would take a lot of money.

0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:53.800
<v Speaker 4>I feel like you would spend an hour typing out

0:17:53.840 --> 0:17:56.880
<v Speaker 4>a story and then you wouldn't save it on your computer.

0:17:59.840 --> 0:18:05.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what you're talking about. So back that

0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:08.240
<v Speaker 1>bus up, Back that bus up. We flashed back to

0:18:08.400 --> 0:18:13.080
<v Speaker 1>last weekend, the Mallard Ugly Sweater Party, A fine shin

0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:14.040
<v Speaker 1>dig the party.

0:18:14.280 --> 0:18:15.760
<v Speaker 3>I can't wait to find out about this.

0:18:16.359 --> 0:18:18.680
<v Speaker 1>You've never heard about this, Danny. So twenty twenty four

0:18:18.880 --> 0:18:23.560
<v Speaker 1>Ugly Sweater party, and update we're about We're about an

0:18:23.600 --> 0:18:26.679
<v Speaker 1>hour into the party. About an hour into the party,

0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:30.240
<v Speaker 1>things were going well. It was a typical ugly sweater party.

0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:33.439
<v Speaker 1>There was a nice crowd, a mix of my radio people,

0:18:33.560 --> 0:18:36.800
<v Speaker 1>a couple of my wife's co workers, some family were

0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:39.679
<v Speaker 1>there and they were eating their Kirkland brand pizza. And

0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:44.160
<v Speaker 1>I had made hundreds, hundreds of cookies. Not I had

0:18:44.280 --> 0:18:48.200
<v Speaker 1>chocolate chip, a lot of chocolate chip. There were oatmeal

0:18:48.280 --> 0:18:50.240
<v Speaker 1>raisin my wife likes oatmeal raisin. I had a lot

0:18:50.240 --> 0:18:54.240
<v Speaker 1>of those. We had gingerbread cookies, which I added, these

0:18:54.240 --> 0:18:57.800
<v Speaker 1>are soft gingerbread, not to be confused with the traditional gingerbread,

0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:00.000
<v Speaker 1>which are not soft. So I had that I made

0:19:00.160 --> 0:19:03.200
<v Speaker 1>some homemade brownies and I want to thank your family,

0:19:03.280 --> 0:19:05.919
<v Speaker 1>Danny gear Deeli brownies. I used the geara Deli brownie,

0:19:05.960 --> 0:19:08.120
<v Speaker 1>so I made those easy to make. So we had

0:19:08.119 --> 0:19:11.280
<v Speaker 1>all that ready to go and we put all that

0:19:11.359 --> 0:19:14.199
<v Speaker 1>together and it was it was fine, and had all

0:19:14.200 --> 0:19:17.560
<v Speaker 1>the food out, had some cake as well, and people

0:19:17.560 --> 0:19:19.520
<v Speaker 1>were eating. And about an hour hour and a half

0:19:19.520 --> 0:19:24.159
<v Speaker 1>into the party, all of a sudden, somebody's knocking on

0:19:24.160 --> 0:19:26.960
<v Speaker 1>the door, ringing the doorbell, and I wasn't near the

0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:32.320
<v Speaker 1>front door. Somebody opens the door and somebody had backed

0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:37.240
<v Speaker 1>that bus up and Danny, hand to god here. It

0:19:37.320 --> 0:19:41.560
<v Speaker 1>was like a conga line. It reminded me of Deebo

0:19:41.800 --> 0:19:44.399
<v Speaker 1>Samuel coming out to take the field for the forty

0:19:44.480 --> 0:19:47.280
<v Speaker 1>nine ers where he's got the boom box, you know,

0:19:47.320 --> 0:19:50.080
<v Speaker 1>he's doing that thing and all the bump box, the

0:19:50.119 --> 0:19:54.320
<v Speaker 1>bump box. Yeah. So this the door opens and it

0:19:54.480 --> 0:19:59.000
<v Speaker 1>is a stampede of my wife's co workers that had

0:19:59.119 --> 0:20:02.920
<v Speaker 1>gotten a party bus to come to the malard Ugly

0:20:02.960 --> 0:20:06.639
<v Speaker 1>Sweater party. And immediately the crowd double. We went from

0:20:07.480 --> 0:20:10.920
<v Speaker 1>five people to about seventy people give or take.

0:20:11.520 --> 0:20:13.280
<v Speaker 3>Was like cops gone wild.

0:20:13.520 --> 0:20:15.080
<v Speaker 1>Oh it was not. I mean, listen, they don't have

0:20:15.280 --> 0:20:16.960
<v Speaker 1>a good time. The cops know I have a good time.

0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:19.800
<v Speaker 1>So they were going crazy. It's getting loud, and I

0:20:19.800 --> 0:20:21.560
<v Speaker 1>want you to know, Danny, I made it all the

0:20:21.600 --> 0:20:26.400
<v Speaker 1>way through high school, college. I've I'm not a big

0:20:26.440 --> 0:20:28.080
<v Speaker 1>party guys. You know, I'm an introvert. But I have

0:20:28.160 --> 0:20:30.239
<v Speaker 1>been to parties. I have been to parties. I've been

0:20:30.240 --> 0:20:33.399
<v Speaker 1>to some crazy parties, not many, but some. But my

0:20:33.640 --> 0:20:38.440
<v Speaker 1>entire life when I was age appropriate to go to parties,

0:20:39.200 --> 0:20:41.080
<v Speaker 1>not once was I ever at a party where the

0:20:41.080 --> 0:20:44.320
<v Speaker 1>cops got called to shut the party down. The twenty

0:20:44.400 --> 0:20:48.879
<v Speaker 1>twenty four Ugly Sweater Party. Somebody called the cops. Some

0:20:49.280 --> 0:20:53.679
<v Speaker 1>some Karen knarked on us and called the cops, and

0:20:53.760 --> 0:20:56.800
<v Speaker 1>so they showed up at the house. And let me

0:20:56.800 --> 0:20:59.679
<v Speaker 1>tell you something, Danny, if you ever find yourself in

0:20:59.720 --> 0:21:03.200
<v Speaker 1>a city situation in your life where you have the

0:21:03.240 --> 0:21:05.199
<v Speaker 1>police show up and you're at your place because the

0:21:05.240 --> 0:21:08.679
<v Speaker 1>party's too loud, may you be lucky enough to have

0:21:08.760 --> 0:21:09.960
<v Speaker 1>police answer the door.

0:21:10.680 --> 0:21:13.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, because they called the cops on the cops exactly.

0:21:13.920 --> 0:21:16.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Because the party. I mean, there were some radio people.

0:21:17.040 --> 0:21:19.800
<v Speaker 1>I invited a bunch of people, you know, some showed up,

0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:24.159
<v Speaker 1>some didn't whatever, but the bulk of the party, the

0:21:24.200 --> 0:21:26.679
<v Speaker 1>whole party bus was my wife's co workers and she

0:21:26.720 --> 0:21:28.720
<v Speaker 1>works at a police station, so it was all cops

0:21:29.160 --> 0:21:31.840
<v Speaker 1>and so it was all I was not near the

0:21:31.880 --> 0:21:34.920
<v Speaker 1>front door. I saw from a distance, I observed and

0:21:35.560 --> 0:21:39.160
<v Speaker 1>like the cop that showed up the check on us

0:21:39.600 --> 0:21:42.000
<v Speaker 1>by the time he opened the door. They all speak

0:21:42.000 --> 0:21:44.520
<v Speaker 1>the same language, Danny, So it's like they had the

0:21:44.600 --> 0:21:46.480
<v Speaker 1>Rosetta stone on how to talk to a cop. And

0:21:46.520 --> 0:21:48.760
<v Speaker 1>so the guy was like smiling and laughing and having

0:21:48.760 --> 0:21:49.920
<v Speaker 1>a good time and all that stuff.

0:21:49.960 --> 0:21:52.320
<v Speaker 4>So they made him a plate of brownies and cookies

0:21:52.920 --> 0:21:55.840
<v Speaker 4>whatever he wants and and so so, yeah, that was

0:21:55.880 --> 0:21:56.440
<v Speaker 4>pretty cool.

0:21:56.520 --> 0:21:58.320
<v Speaker 1>That was That was pretty cool. So I can say

0:21:58.320 --> 0:22:00.720
<v Speaker 1>that the Ugly Sweater party was the cresiest of all

0:22:00.760 --> 0:22:03.280
<v Speaker 1>time because never before we've had a lot of these things.

0:22:03.320 --> 0:22:06.800
<v Speaker 1>Never before has somebody ratted us out and call the

0:22:06.840 --> 0:22:09.560
<v Speaker 1>police and so, and I'm not going to say that

0:22:09.600 --> 0:22:11.960
<v Speaker 1>it was it was Ferg Dog that did it or alf.

0:22:12.040 --> 0:22:14.359
<v Speaker 1>I don't think those guys would have done it, but

0:22:14.440 --> 0:22:16.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know who did. Somebody did. I have no idea.

0:22:16.520 --> 0:22:18.879
<v Speaker 1>Got a murder, All right, let's get to the word

0:22:19.240 --> 0:22:21.640
<v Speaker 1>of the week. Are you ready for the word a week?

0:22:22.359 --> 0:22:25.160
<v Speaker 3>The replay of the word of.

0:22:25.240 --> 0:22:27.920
<v Speaker 1>The week, well, really more of a phrase of the week.

0:22:27.960 --> 0:22:30.560
<v Speaker 1>But this is from Becky from Nebraska. I don't know

0:22:30.560 --> 0:22:33.200
<v Speaker 1>where in Nebraska, but as I like to say, Danny,

0:22:33.200 --> 0:22:35.639
<v Speaker 1>there's only three cities in Nebraska that she could possibly live,

0:22:35.640 --> 0:22:39.720
<v Speaker 1>and everything else is just farmland. Anyway, Becky rights, she's

0:22:41.600 --> 0:22:44.800
<v Speaker 1>I know, it's like I've heard that before too, blow

0:22:44.880 --> 0:22:49.640
<v Speaker 1>your own trumpet, which is Becky said she heard me

0:22:49.640 --> 0:22:51.920
<v Speaker 1>mention this this week on a monologu, which is true.

0:22:51.960 --> 0:22:55.080
<v Speaker 1>I didn't. I didn't mention blow your own trumpet in

0:22:55.160 --> 0:22:59.000
<v Speaker 1>a reference to I think I I if I remember correctly,

0:22:59.000 --> 0:23:03.800
<v Speaker 1>we're talking about Wan Soo's opening news conference with the Mets,

0:23:03.840 --> 0:23:06.960
<v Speaker 1>and I know that's exciting here and and the Mets

0:23:07.000 --> 0:23:09.320
<v Speaker 1>not only get Juan Soto, they get the baby that

0:23:09.320 --> 0:23:12.480
<v Speaker 1>will be born later in Juan Soto's belly. But but anyway,

0:23:12.520 --> 0:23:15.840
<v Speaker 1>I talked about how it's just unlikable and just like

0:23:15.920 --> 0:23:18.280
<v Speaker 1>the whole vibe I got it was just like I

0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:23.600
<v Speaker 1>hate got the athletes that are that arrogant just rubbed.

0:23:23.280 --> 0:23:27.399
<v Speaker 3>Me the wrong way. Yeah, arrogant and entitled exactly.

0:23:27.480 --> 0:23:30.320
<v Speaker 1>That's just there are people that think that's great and

0:23:30.400 --> 0:23:32.240
<v Speaker 1>good for you. And I know him in the minority,

0:23:32.720 --> 0:23:39.560
<v Speaker 1>but like Blake Snell, Juan Soto, Machado, Carlos correct, guys

0:23:39.600 --> 0:23:43.040
<v Speaker 1>like that just really really bothered me anyway. So I

0:23:43.440 --> 0:23:46.840
<v Speaker 1>said something like Juan Soda, I think the tease on

0:23:46.880 --> 0:23:50.000
<v Speaker 1>the in the monologue was he's part of the New

0:23:50.080 --> 0:23:54.240
<v Speaker 1>York Philharmonic Orchestra, He's the one blowing his own trumpet.

0:23:54.440 --> 0:24:00.879
<v Speaker 1>And and the phrase becky, oh my god, exactly to

0:24:00.920 --> 0:24:04.840
<v Speaker 1>blow your own trumpet is actually it's a version of

0:24:04.880 --> 0:24:08.520
<v Speaker 1>blow your own horn. He blew me off at a

0:24:08.600 --> 0:24:15.000
<v Speaker 1>hotel near lax That was clearly edited. I never said that.

0:24:16.680 --> 0:24:19.840
<v Speaker 1>The people that study words say middle of the nineteenth century,

0:24:20.720 --> 0:24:25.919
<v Speaker 1>and it actually, though becky comes from an earlier expression,

0:24:26.600 --> 0:24:29.720
<v Speaker 1>blow your own trumpet, which dates back to at least

0:24:29.720 --> 0:24:34.800
<v Speaker 1>the fifteen hundreds. And they say they who know who

0:24:34.840 --> 0:24:39.119
<v Speaker 1>claim to know that it actually originated from medieval times,

0:24:39.160 --> 0:24:42.240
<v Speaker 1>not the restaurant I know there is that still around

0:24:42.320 --> 0:24:44.000
<v Speaker 1>medieval times. Is that still a thing?

0:24:44.680 --> 0:24:45.040
<v Speaker 3>It is?

0:24:45.160 --> 0:24:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, not the restaurant medieval times. But no, no, no,

0:24:50.160 --> 0:24:54.200
<v Speaker 1>this is something that I had seen Danny in Robin

0:24:54.240 --> 0:24:58.359
<v Speaker 1>Hood and old movies about medieval times, but I always

0:24:58.359 --> 0:25:01.600
<v Speaker 1>thought it was bullshit. I think there was possibly real,

0:25:02.240 --> 0:25:06.560
<v Speaker 1>But apparently it was that to announce the arrival of

0:25:06.600 --> 0:25:11.320
<v Speaker 1>the king, Harald's blue trumpets to announce the arrival of

0:25:11.359 --> 0:25:16.600
<v Speaker 1>the king, and so any merchant or other commoner who

0:25:16.680 --> 0:25:19.480
<v Speaker 1>wanted to announce his arrival had to blow his own horn.

0:25:20.359 --> 0:25:26.760
<v Speaker 1>So thus the term blow your own horn and whatnot

0:25:26.960 --> 0:25:29.639
<v Speaker 1>got twisted around blow your own trumpet, whatever, But that

0:25:29.800 --> 0:25:35.200
<v Speaker 1>is it, blow your own trumpet a tribute to medieval

0:25:35.320 --> 0:25:39.240
<v Speaker 1>times when they would announce the arrival of the king.

0:25:39.760 --> 0:25:41.760
<v Speaker 1>Kind of like we're announcing that this is it. And

0:25:41.800 --> 0:25:43.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm pretty sure that we're not going to have to

0:25:43.840 --> 0:25:47.080
<v Speaker 1>do this a third time. I'm positive that we will

0:25:47.080 --> 0:25:49.239
<v Speaker 1>not have to do this the third time, but if

0:25:49.240 --> 0:25:51.560
<v Speaker 1>we did, it would be even better than the last

0:25:51.600 --> 0:25:56.960
<v Speaker 1>one that we just Anyway, all right, Saturday, it's much

0:25:57.000 --> 0:25:58.800
<v Speaker 1>later than it was supposed to be because of this

0:25:59.040 --> 0:26:02.840
<v Speaker 1>bad job by me and anything you want to promote.

0:26:03.160 --> 0:26:07.919
<v Speaker 1>Not a great sporting day today, that'd be fair to say, right, No,

0:26:07.920 --> 0:26:12.720
<v Speaker 1>No NFL on Saturday till next weekend. Yeah, Bowl games

0:26:12.760 --> 0:26:15.600
<v Speaker 1>aren't really a thing, right, We've just got one game

0:26:15.760 --> 0:26:18.520
<v Speaker 1>to watch today, and that was pretty much.

0:26:18.600 --> 0:26:20.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, all eyes are on what we.

0:26:20.840 --> 0:26:25.160
<v Speaker 4>Call Army Navy, but it's Navy at Army today. Tonight

0:26:25.320 --> 0:26:29.600
<v Speaker 4>there's the Veterans Bowl with two historically black schools.

0:26:29.920 --> 0:26:32.520
<v Speaker 1>Hey man, you might not notice, but I'm black.

0:26:33.320 --> 0:26:36.280
<v Speaker 4>Not a lot of Bowl action yet, Ben, But I

0:26:36.359 --> 0:26:39.360
<v Speaker 4>know you love the Army Navy matchups. From when we

0:26:39.359 --> 0:26:41.920
<v Speaker 4>were kids, those were some really good football teach.

0:26:41.800 --> 0:26:44.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh, it was always in Philadelphia. They made a big deal.

0:26:44.520 --> 0:26:48.760
<v Speaker 1>I remember being on CBS and they were combined. It

0:26:48.840 --> 0:26:52.960
<v Speaker 1>was like watching what would be the end watching the

0:26:53.040 --> 0:26:56.520
<v Speaker 1>Jets and Giants play. Just terrible teams, horrible teams and all.

0:26:56.680 --> 0:26:59.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and we obviously respected both teams and all the

0:27:00.520 --> 0:27:03.440
<v Speaker 4>for what they do for the country, but the play

0:27:03.520 --> 0:27:06.040
<v Speaker 4>on the field left a lot to be desired.

0:27:06.119 --> 0:27:07.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, when we were kids, it was, Hey, you know,

0:27:08.080 --> 0:27:10.360
<v Speaker 1>the Army and the Navy they win the real battles.

0:27:10.359 --> 0:27:12.800
<v Speaker 1>They don't worry about the football battles. You know, they

0:27:12.840 --> 0:27:13.320
<v Speaker 1>win war.

0:27:13.400 --> 0:27:16.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, you want to talk about trenches, buddy.

0:27:16.960 --> 0:27:22.119
<v Speaker 1>Exactly exactly. And years ago, my friend Marlin's man, he

0:27:22.200 --> 0:27:24.760
<v Speaker 1>invited me to an Army Navy game. It was actually

0:27:24.800 --> 0:27:27.679
<v Speaker 1>in New Jersey and I was unable to make it.

0:27:27.680 --> 0:27:29.199
<v Speaker 1>I would love to go to that game. That's one

0:27:29.200 --> 0:27:32.400
<v Speaker 1>of those those games in American sports. It doesn't matter

0:27:32.400 --> 0:27:36.720
<v Speaker 1>whether they're good or not. It's just to see the scene,

0:27:36.760 --> 0:27:39.520
<v Speaker 1>the pomp and circumstance at that game. It's always really,

0:27:40.000 --> 0:27:41.760
<v Speaker 1>really really cool. All Right, we'll get out on that.

0:27:41.960 --> 0:27:44.760
<v Speaker 1>I have a wonderful rest of your day.

0:27:44.920 --> 0:27:47.760

0:27:54.359 --> 0:27:56.240
<v Speaker 1>it twice, you old man.
