Guys are complaining 0:01:01.200 --> 0:01:04.960 because I put it up on Monday. Yeah, because I 0:01:05.040 --> 0:01:08.959 usually do it on Tuesday, and so somehow I had 0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:13.640 messed up the bio rhythms of Facebook, and guys were 0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:17.640 busting my balls.

That's f I F T H if 0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:08.160 you don't know how to spell real and you don't 0:02:08.160 --> 0:02:11.520 know how to spell our real fifth Hour at gmail 0:02:11.600 --> 0:02:16.440 dot com. And right to the many many questions we go, 0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:20.680 and let's see who should we start with? Mail? Let's 0:02:20.680 --> 0:02:24.080 start with Mike from Fullerton. He says, Hey, Ben and 0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:28.000 Danny J. I'd like to hear your takes. Aren't an 0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:33.720 argument between my friends Petro's and Matt Matt money Smith 0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:40.080 And Mike says, when everyone has their trash cans in 0:02:40.120 --> 0:02:43.720 the street for pick up day and your dog poop 0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:47.520 swall on a walk, Mike asked, is it okay to 0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:51.240 throw a bag of your dog's poop in a stranger's 0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:54.639 trash can? If a garbage truck hasn't picked it up yet. 0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:58.200 That's the question. So I'll go first. I don't even 0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:01.160 know why this is a question. This is a no brainer. 0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:04.760 This is being to me a polite neighbor that so 0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:08.720 often we all see dogshit and nobody picks it up, 0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:11.079 and they just pretend like it didn't happen. And if 0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:13.880 you're gonna do that and be kind enough to a 0:03:14.360 --> 0:03:19.320 pick up the poopy, it was great to see pooh 0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:23.400 and then be put it in a trash can, mozelto 0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:26.240 good job by you. Well, why is this even a thing? 0:03:26.280 --> 0:03:28.320 Then explain to me why this is even an argument. 0:03:28.360 --> 0:03:31.880 There is no argument. Once you put the trash on 0:03:31.919 --> 0:03:35.240 the street, you're done with the trash. It's now you're 0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:38.560 just awaiting. It's like being on death row and you're 0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:41.560 you're you're, you're making the walk down to the electric 0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:44.280 chair when the trash is out on the street. That's 0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:46.880 the same set up. Yeah, this would only be an 0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:49.000 argument if you put the ship in a bag and 0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:53.200 left it on their doorstep for them to to and 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:56.000 for them to deliver it to a trash can. But 0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.040 as long as it's sealed and tied off in a bag, 0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:02.040 you're you seeing it as a public trash can to 0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:05.960 serve the public for the better good of humanity. We 0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:07.880 all have neighbors like this is a guy that was 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:10.120 kind of down the street for me, that's like this 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:15.560 who is overly protective of their house, Like anybody kind 0:04:15.560 --> 0:04:18.920 of like walks on the on the grass. That guy 0:04:19.000 --> 0:04:21.440 that goes out there is like, what are you doing? Man? 0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:24.040 You got mean, what are you doing? So for that guy, 0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:27.960 this would be an invasion of privacy. But no, anybody's 0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:31.160 willing to pick up, doge it and put it away. 0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:35.400 That's a great thing, all right. Who is next? As 0:04:35.440 --> 0:04:41.440 we go further and further into the mail bag, it's 0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:45.159 Eric and Binghamton, New York. A fine town. I've actually 0:04:45.240 --> 0:04:48.279 driven through Binghamton years ago, he says, Ben, and Danny 0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:52.680 ge how are you doing? My name is Eric, He 0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:55.240 announces where he lives. Again. I have written into the 0:04:55.279 --> 0:04:59.440 show before, but it had been a while. Ben, I 0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:01.599 have been listening since the website days. Wow, that's a 0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:03.560 long time, the Ben mallary dot com days, back in 0:05:03.600 --> 0:05:06.280 the old days. Damn. This guy must be in his seventies. 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:09.840 Calm down, I just love both of the shows. Can 0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:13.200 you please, Can you guys please tell me more about 0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:17.839 the knock room where all the stuff is monitored. I 0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:22.520 have this picture in my head and I must know more. Also, 0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:28.279 why the beef between Tammy, Helen and Stu. If we 0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:31.760 are going to hear them go back and forth constantly, 0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:34.839 it would be good to know. Why. Keep up the 0:05:34.839 --> 0:05:38.479 great work. That's from Eric again in Binghamton, New York. 0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:42.120 So Eric, the question about the knock, how would you 0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:43.880 describe it? I would describe it like if you see 0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:46.800 a replay room, like the NFL replay room or the 0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:50.719 NBA replay room. There's a lot of TVs and a 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:54.240 lot of buttons in that room. Would that be accurate? 0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:59.240 Danny the knock? Yeah, I am googling right now. Denzel 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:05.760 Washington in submarine movie Crimson Tide. Remember that movie? Yeah? 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.400 I do recall that movie. Oh man, if you haven't 0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:11.919 seen Crimson Tide, put that on your list a classic. 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:17.560 There's that one control room that everyone originates out of, 0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:21.839 and there's lots of those big clear boards that have 0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:27.400 the uh what is that called? In military terms? Planning 0:06:27.640 --> 0:06:30.000 many years in the Marines, so I have the answer, 0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:34.279 unless I don't. I don't have any idea, But that's 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:36.479 what the Knock room looks like. It's got a map 0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:39.760 of the world on one of those big glass boards 0:06:39.800 --> 0:06:43.840 like that, and they literally are tracking every affiliate around 0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:47.799 the world. Wow. Yeah, it is fascinating in mind boggling 0:06:47.839 --> 0:06:50.120 when you think about all of the content that those 0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:53.440 guys in the Knock are are overseeing. Because all of 0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:57.000 the Premier network shows, which you know back in the day, 0:06:57.080 --> 0:06:59.719 Rush Limba now, Clay Travis, your your old Pial there 0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:03.680 and show, and George Nori and so many of the 0:07:03.680 --> 0:07:06.359 other hosts that we don't even talk about that that 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:08.360 two shows for a premiere and their shows are Synica, 0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:12.200 Steve Harvey, another one, Ryan Seacrest. His top was a 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:16.440 Top forty show that he got Elvis Duran. Elvis Suran's 0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:18.080 a big star in radio. So there's a bunch of 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:21.360 these guys and they all have people in charge twenty 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:25.240 four hours a day, and if anything goes wrong, the 0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:27.520 Knock has gotta fix it. They gotta get right on 0:07:27.560 --> 0:07:30.440 it right away, right or else programming will be all 0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:34.440 messed up and people will lose their jobs. You're very upset. 0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:38.160 And as far as Tammy, Helen and Stu if I 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:43.960 remember correctly, this started with Helen and Stu attacking Gagon, 0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:48.280 who used to beend the podcast, and then Tammy came 0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:53.200 to defend Gagon, and then that led to Helen and 0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:59.000 Stu then turning their missile or missiles at Tammy, and 0:07:59.040 --> 0:08:03.440 then Tammy responded, and it's just been going back and forth, 0:08:03.480 --> 0:08:05.720 although we haven't gotten any email from Helen and Stewart 0:08:05.760 --> 0:08:08.119 Tamil the last couple of weeks. So have things calmed 0:08:08.160 --> 0:08:12.080 down now? Danny and and Eric and Bingaton's dying to know. 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:14.920 But it's not an every week thing. It just pops 0:08:15.000 --> 0:08:18.520 up like once a month or so. Another submarine reference 0:08:18.600 --> 0:08:23.040 the sonar sometimes the sub blaze low trying to be invisible, 0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:27.400 but then they pop out and start shooting their missiles again. Yeah, 0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:29.480 and it's gonna heat up. It's it's it's that time 0:08:29.520 --> 0:08:31.040 of the year, right, and the next couple of months 0:08:31.040 --> 0:08:33.160 can get pretty nasty and hot, and at that point, 0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:38.120 all bets are off, right, all bets are off. It's 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:41.280 gonna gonna happen and everyone will be screaming at the podcast. 0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:45.480 Shut the funk up, Okay, shut the funk up. Give 0:08:45.520 --> 0:08:48.160 me the codes, man, I need the codes right now, 0:08:48.240 --> 0:08:53.680 exactly all right, let's see Pierre and Springfield, says Ben 0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:56.640 and Danny g well, this is an important question. What 0:08:56.760 --> 0:09:00.079 he's about this? He says, have you have either of 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:03.160 you ever farted extremely loud in a situation where you 0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:06.720 forgot your surroundings, possibly the first time in front of 0:09:06.720 --> 0:09:09.880 a lady friend or her parents, maybe in front of 0:09:09.920 --> 0:09:18.440 a superior at work. He says, that's from Pierre in Springfield. So, uh, yeah, 0:09:18.559 --> 0:09:21.800 it's happened. It's a natural part of of being I'll 0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:24.680 go first year, Danny, Uh, the story. I think I 0:09:24.720 --> 0:09:27.840 told this on the podcast, but years ago, married a 0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:31.679 decent amount of time now, but I'm the guy at 0:09:31.679 --> 0:09:35.080 the hotel in Vegas. I'll go down to the lobby 0:09:35.160 --> 0:09:39.120 to go to the bathroom. That's I'm that guy. So 0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:43.840 I I try to hold the tuting to as little 0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:47.280 as possible around other people. Most people do that. It's polite, 0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:52.000 good decorum. Yeah, So what I'll do is I'll i'll go, 0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:56.920 I'll excuse myself and I'll go outside. So one time 0:09:57.040 --> 0:10:00.640 was at the old house and I was walking and saying, 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:02.560 I was getting something out of the car. I'm moving 0:10:02.559 --> 0:10:07.880 something around outside and I was completely convinced that there 0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:13.440 was no one within hearing distance around, right, And I 0:10:13.480 --> 0:10:18.599 had eaten some spicy food, uh earlier that day or 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:20.520 the night on the night before, whatever it might have been. 0:10:20.520 --> 0:10:22.160 I forget when I'd eating it, but I eating some 0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:27.319 spice of food. So I'm I'm reaching down to get 0:10:27.360 --> 0:10:33.440 something near the car and and uh yeah, and then 0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:37.600 I hear this laugh, and uh, it's my my wife. 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:40.240 It's she. She'd walked outside. I didn't even hear her, 0:10:40.559 --> 0:10:43.959 like a stealth bomber, and she heard the whole thing. 0:10:44.040 --> 0:10:45.559 She thought it was very amusing. She thought it was 0:10:45.679 --> 0:10:48.640 very very funny. And it was just so loud, Danny. 0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:53.440 It was piercing sound, dude, dude, but it was very loud, 0:10:53.760 --> 0:10:59.120 and it was yeah, yeah, exactly. What What about you, Danny? 0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:03.360 Any flatulence issues that you can recall? This is a 0:11:03.400 --> 0:11:06.440 good question. I haven't thought about this since it happened 0:11:06.920 --> 0:11:09.600 a few weeks ago. I was at a local grocery 0:11:09.640 --> 0:11:13.280 store here, and you know, I don't get gas often, 0:11:13.440 --> 0:11:17.240 thank god, but I'm not sure why that morning, I 0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:21.520 had just some air trapped in inside. And when I 0:11:21.559 --> 0:11:25.000 got outside of the grocery store, you know, it's the morning. 0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:27.199 There weren't a lot of shoppers. There definitely weren't a 0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:31.720 lot of cars in the parking lot. The gas came out, 0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:34.880 you know, I had just put my card away. I'm 0:11:34.960 --> 0:11:38.120 opening my car door, and I look up as I'm 0:11:38.120 --> 0:11:41.280 getting into my car, and there's an older gentleman who 0:11:41.360 --> 0:11:45.480 had been approaching the cart rack from the other side. 0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:48.720 I didn't see him, and he just had this crazy 0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:52.120 look on his face because he was there to bear 0:11:52.200 --> 0:12:00.000 witness to what had just exploded in the parking lot. Uh. 0:12:00.000 --> 0:12:03.120 It's embarrassing because when you think you're alone and then 0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:06.760 you wind up not being alone. You just wanna you know, 0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:10.319 what's the old commercial, You wanna get away Southwest Carolina? 0:12:10.400 --> 0:12:17.120 Southwest Yeah, get away? Yeah, thank you, Chicago awkward moments. 0:12:17.400 --> 0:12:20.719 Uh yeah. Well then sometimes you have a competitive advantage though, 0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:23.120 if you're in an elevator and there's a lot of 0:12:23.120 --> 0:12:26.240 people in there and there's kind of some noise in 0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:28.760 the elevator and if you let one rip, then nobody 0:12:28.760 --> 0:12:32.800 knows who did it, so you can It does cut 0:12:32.840 --> 0:12:38.760 both ways, for sure. I got mail, Yeah, I got mail. Yeah. 0:12:40.240 --> 0:12:46.360 Cut yeah. Kevin in Kansas, alright, Son, he says dear 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:48.400 been in. Danny g is a high school teacher. I know, 0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:52.040 my profession likes to think we're getting students prepared for 0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:55.120 real life. On a Mallard scale of one to ten, 0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:59.160 how prepared were you for real life after you graduated? 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:04.280 Where should we be focused these days? So it's been 0:13:04.280 --> 0:13:08.040 a few years, Kevin since I got out of high school. 0:13:08.120 --> 0:13:10.720 But on the Malar scale, it prepared for real life, 0:13:12.120 --> 0:13:14.280 I don't know. I would say I was like a 0:13:14.480 --> 0:13:21.120 solid seven. I would say, uh. And I started working. 0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:26.520 I went to school for a radio. I started working 0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:28.520 in radio as nineteen. So I got out of high 0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:31.240 school at eighteen and I was going to school and 0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:34.480 working in radio. Uh. So I had a lot of 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:37.600 stuff going on. But but to me, high school you 0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:39.199 gotta learn all the basics. I think they need to 0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:43.160 spend more time, Danny on just the adult bullshit that 0:13:43.240 --> 0:13:46.000 you have to do that you don't really realize as much. 0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:48.120 I didn't as much stuff as you have to do. 0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:50.360 And I'm I'm lucky I have. I'm married. My wife 0:13:50.360 --> 0:13:52.680 takes care a lot of the bullshit for me. But 0:13:53.760 --> 0:13:55.640 you know, there's a lot of little things you have 0:13:55.720 --> 0:13:57.960 to take care of that's uh that I don't know 0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:00.400 that they necessarily go over all that stuff. I would 0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:04.840 focus on the taxes, the kitchen stuff, cleaning, like just 0:14:04.920 --> 0:14:07.120 the basically a lot of people. I feel like they 0:14:07.120 --> 0:14:10.400 everyone should know that. But I think you need more, 0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:13.719 a little more push in that direction. What about you, David? Yeah? 0:14:13.760 --> 0:14:17.200 And I actually you know moonlight in the education field, 0:14:18.280 --> 0:14:21.880 and I would say that I would push for instead 0:14:21.880 --> 0:14:26.320 of math class in high school, a credit score class 0:14:27.120 --> 0:14:31.520 that would be way more helpful because I remember struggling 0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:36.200 to get through algebra two and I didn't need algebra 0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:40.240 two to live my life, my adult life. What I needed, though, 0:14:40.840 --> 0:14:44.360 was some help understanding how to get a good credit 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:47.240 score and then maintain it. I mean, we've heard this 0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:50.000 for years that it would be better to have some 0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:54.040 real life type classes in schools, and some schools have this. 0:14:54.160 --> 0:14:58.640 Some schools are evolving towards that it would be nice 0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:00.800 to see it as a country free though, where we 0:15:00.880 --> 0:15:05.040 start looking at education in junior high, middle school, high 0:15:05.080 --> 0:15:08.240 school and thinking, Okay, what's really gonna help our kids 0:15:08.320 --> 0:15:11.520 dominate when they get out of school. Luckily for me, Ben, 0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:15.240 I was in commercial radio part time when I was sixteen, 0:15:15.320 --> 0:15:18.280 years old, So I was already in the ship. I 0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:23.960 was around grown adults smoking packs of cigarettes, banging groupies, 0:15:25.680 --> 0:15:29.000 doing lines of cocaine next to the printer at the 0:15:29.080 --> 0:15:31.960 radio station. So I saw a lot of crap at 0:15:32.000 --> 0:15:34.520 an early age. I was ready for it when I 0:15:34.560 --> 0:15:37.840 got out of high school. But the term helicopter parents 0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:42.440 who because of how the world is nowadays, they really 0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:45.720 just coddle their kids, and some of those kids have 0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:50.760 problems once they get to grade. Yeah, yeah, for sure. 0:15:50.760 --> 0:15:52.680 I mean I think that's the thing, Like, you want 0:15:52.720 --> 0:15:56.280 to teach kids in high school, how do you bounce? 0:15:56.520 --> 0:15:58.640 How do you save money even if you don't have 0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:00.000 a lot of mean, even if it's only a couple 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:03.000 of bucks a month, and over time, that'll add up. 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:06.840 And I'm like, well, I have an emergency fund, squirrel 0:16:06.920 --> 0:16:09.240 something away just in case, as you talked about Danny, 0:16:09.280 --> 0:16:12.200 the vacation fund that you have with your TENDERNI like 0:16:12.240 --> 0:16:14.880 little things like that. Again, a lot of people say, well, 0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:17.800 that's just common sense. People should know that, But you're 0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:20.600 in high school. You don't really have common sense, do you? Usually? 0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:23.240 Very rarely do you have common There should also be 0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:28.960 etiquette classes. Yeah, you can't do that though, Danny in 0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:31.520 in this climate, no, how dare you tell someone how 0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:35.240 to act? What's wrong with you? Get all upset? Elementary 0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:39.160 schools should definitely have etiquette classes because half of what 0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:43.360 we do is teach kids social skills when they're in 0:16:43.480 --> 0:16:47.160 kindergarten through fifth grade. So if there was more etiquette 0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:51.360 training during those prime years, that would help all of 0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:54.760 us in this world. Trust me. Yeah, alright, good question 0:16:54.800 --> 0:16:59.840 from Kevin in Kansas. Thank you, sir. You've got me. 0:17:00.440 --> 0:17:04.239 Fred in Spring Texas, freds are regular emailer, and I 0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:08.800 thank you for that, Fred our man Fred. He says, Hey, guys, 0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:13.359 what foreign languages did you study in high school or college? 0:17:13.480 --> 0:17:16.399 And how did you do on reaching a high level 0:17:16.520 --> 0:17:23.159 of proficiency? So? Not very well? I speak Spanguish, I 0:17:23.200 --> 0:17:25.719 wish I knew Spanish, well I don't. I know a 0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:29.560 few words and whatnot, and I've I've learned in my 0:17:29.760 --> 0:17:33.520 radio days, not really in high school or even college. 0:17:33.320 --> 0:17:38.919 I learned a few words in different languages, so I 0:17:38.960 --> 0:17:40.760 know a little bit of this and a little bit 0:17:40.760 --> 0:17:44.359 of that, but nothing, nothing passable. And when I was 0:17:44.400 --> 0:17:46.840 a kid night a bar mitzvah, so I learned Hebrew. 0:17:47.840 --> 0:17:50.320 Don't ask me about that now because I I know 0:17:50.359 --> 0:17:52.119 a few Like I know a few words of that 0:17:52.200 --> 0:17:54.440 I remember I've retained, but not much. What about you, 0:17:54.560 --> 0:18:02.920 dany Oh love one year because my high school did 0:18:03.560 --> 0:18:07.600 require one year of a foreign language, and my mom 0:18:07.680 --> 0:18:10.960 she convinced me to go with French because that is 0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:14.120 what she did in high school. She actually was good 0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:17.720 at it. Though I passed. I gotta I think I 0:18:17.760 --> 0:18:19.800 gotta be in that class, so it was all right, 0:18:20.359 --> 0:18:23.120 but it wasn't something where I got out of the 0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:25.280 year of that class and was like, oh man, I 0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:28.320 want to continue how to learn this language, especially when 0:18:28.320 --> 0:18:31.880 I found out how most French people hate Americans guts. 0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:35.800 I was like, I don't think I'm gonna be spending 0:18:35.800 --> 0:18:39.119 that much time in that country. Yeah. Well, my buddy, 0:18:39.359 --> 0:18:41.920 as he asked me for advice, so I actually doesn't 0:18:41.920 --> 0:18:46.840 ask me advice, but like, uhna gonna take French and 0:18:46.880 --> 0:18:51.159 I'm like, no Spanish. Then that's the especially where we 0:18:51.200 --> 0:18:55.120 are doing the show from in southern California, it's as 0:18:55.200 --> 0:18:57.960 much the native tongue as English these days. So if 0:18:57.960 --> 0:19:00.000 you have you have it to me, I have an advantage, 0:19:00.240 --> 0:19:03.080 or at least a level playing field. You don't you 0:19:03.080 --> 0:19:05.119 know what the adults thoughts on that were when we 0:19:05.119 --> 0:19:07.239 were kids, though I had heard this couple times. Oh 0:19:07.320 --> 0:19:13.600 you'll learn that language at work. Oh is that right? Oh? 0:19:13.800 --> 0:19:17.000 What am I gonna be a landscaper? Oh? Shots fired 0:19:17.040 --> 0:19:25.720 out there. Producer's note. Landscapers are amazing people. Shouts out 0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:29.240 to Steve Snow and Bob Jordan's who gave me summer work. 0:19:31.520 --> 0:19:35.360 All right, what is next year? Any meny miny moll, 0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:41.600 come back. It's side from now. Call Alan and akran Ohio, 0:19:42.160 --> 0:19:46.360 the birthplace of Steph Curry and Lebron James says. At 0:19:46.400 --> 0:19:48.800 the new FSR studios, will you be able to see 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:52.040 the crew when you are in the studio? Will everyone 0:19:52.200 --> 0:19:55.159 still be in separate rooms? Well, that is a great question. Alan. 0:19:55.880 --> 0:19:59.240 We don't have an answer because number one, we haven't 0:19:59.480 --> 0:20:01.760 seen the design for the new studio. Number two we 0:20:01.960 --> 0:20:03.840 I think everything got delayed. Danny said, I don't know 0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:06.840 that we will know for a while. We were supposed 0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:09.879 to move to the new studios in a couple of months, 0:20:10.680 --> 0:20:15.120 but that's not happen. So I don't know more than that. 0:20:15.520 --> 0:20:16.879 Do you know any more than that? I don't think 0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:20.560 we're allowed to share. That's insider information, cannot share with 0:20:20.560 --> 0:20:23.960 the class, right, Yeah, they're not divulging a lot of 0:20:24.000 --> 0:20:27.919 information about the big move and probably because they know 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:31.800 will blab about it on podcasts like this, so keeping 0:20:31.880 --> 0:20:34.919 us somewhat in the dark. So that's fine because I 0:20:34.920 --> 0:20:38.119 don't necessarily want to move right now. Well, it's a 0:20:38.160 --> 0:20:42.600 longer drive for you. Take your time. Yeah, I don't 0:20:42.600 --> 0:20:44.320 know that it's a longer drive for me. I think 0:20:44.320 --> 0:20:46.280 it's probably about the same. I just have to go 0:20:46.359 --> 0:20:49.719 a different way, different route for you. It probably shaves 0:20:49.760 --> 0:20:55.000 off like ten or twelve minutes for you. Yeah maybe. Yeah, 0:20:56.200 --> 0:21:00.320 is further up the one on one freeway? Yeah, that true, 0:21:00.320 --> 0:21:02.560 it's I I'd have to go right instead of left. 0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:06.080 Basically when it curves around near the you take it 0:21:06.119 --> 0:21:08.359 past the Hollywood Bowl there and then you get to 0:21:08.400 --> 0:21:12.199 the split and then you have to go Yeah, not 0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:14.920 a huge difference for you, but I'll save you just 0:21:14.960 --> 0:21:20.480 a little bit of time. Yeah, all right. Kevin from 0:21:20.560 --> 0:21:24.080 rockf Illinoiss, have you guys ever been a victim of 0:21:24.119 --> 0:21:27.320 a robbery. I was robbed this past weekend at a 0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:30.159 gas station. It was very stressful and I was an 0:21:30.160 --> 0:21:34.800 absolute panic, Kevin says, I will probably have PTSD from 0:21:34.840 --> 0:21:37.880 it the rest of my life. I called the police 0:21:37.920 --> 0:21:40.879 and they asked me if I knew who did it. 0:21:40.920 --> 0:21:44.439 I said, I absolutely do know who did it. And 0:21:44.520 --> 0:21:46.760 Kevin says he informed the police it was pump six 0:21:46.840 --> 0:21:52.320 at the mobile gas station that that roughed. Okay, now, 0:21:52.400 --> 0:21:55.200 Kevin doesn't mean that's a That is a cheesy joke. Kevin. Uh, 0:21:55.240 --> 0:21:57.760 these gas prices suck. I don't know how you guys 0:21:57.760 --> 0:22:02.240 are making it out there and California. I've just decided 0:22:02.280 --> 0:22:05.560 to eat only once every other day, and I the 0:22:05.640 --> 0:22:09.560 money I would spend on food I am now spending 0:22:09.560 --> 0:22:13.240 on gas, so I'm losing weight. So really, what I'm 0:22:13.280 --> 0:22:16.919 doing is I'm saving calories and just spending it on gas. 0:22:17.200 --> 0:22:21.400 And I'm hoping to pay Phil Mickelson's salary and all 0:22:21.400 --> 0:22:24.320 those other guys that took the Saudi Oil one. So 0:22:24.359 --> 0:22:26.560 I'm helping them out, taking care of him little bit. 0:22:26.640 --> 0:22:32.160 Why not? Yeah, Uh, anyway, we're having the same issues 0:22:32.200 --> 0:22:35.320 righting price of gases insane to them. You know, you 0:22:35.440 --> 0:22:37.600 go into a casino and you know you're gonna lose 0:22:37.640 --> 0:22:39.680 money and you're not gonna come out ahead on that, 0:22:39.760 --> 0:22:42.919 but maybe you'll have a good time. The gas station 0:22:43.000 --> 0:22:44.439 is the same thing, because you go in there, you 0:22:44.480 --> 0:22:47.919 know you're you're getting bent over the table, and uh, 0:22:48.000 --> 0:22:50.399 it's gonna cost you a fortune, but at least you 0:22:50.400 --> 0:22:52.359 need the gas. So maybe you'll drive somewhere and have 0:22:52.400 --> 0:22:54.600 a good time. Same concept, right, Danny. I think it's 0:22:54.600 --> 0:22:56.240 the same concept. I'm going. I'm going with that in 0:22:56.280 --> 0:22:58.919 my head. It's the same concept that beat down and 0:22:58.920 --> 0:23:03.120 then I gave you last night. Yeah, I got mail, yea, 0:23:03.720 --> 0:23:07.040 I got mail, yea. Back in the mail, back we go. 0:23:07.200 --> 0:23:10.879 John in Colorado and northern Colorado, not southern, not eastern, 0:23:11.000 --> 0:23:14.680 not western, northern Colorado. He says, have you ever spilled 0:23:14.720 --> 0:23:18.879 a beverage on the studio mixing board? I will not tell. 0:23:20.520 --> 0:23:24.679 John says, well, I have a brief story now I 0:23:24.720 --> 0:23:27.919 have not done it. But there was a famous story 0:23:27.960 --> 0:23:30.000 in Fox Sports radio history. And I don't know if 0:23:30.000 --> 0:23:31.480 you were part of this, Danny, if you were at 0:23:31.480 --> 0:23:36.560 the company or not, but somebody did spill something that 0:23:36.680 --> 0:23:40.560 got into the equipment and it was a big mess. 0:23:40.560 --> 0:23:42.879 Like it costs a lot of money to repair, and 0:23:42.920 --> 0:23:44.600 they it was a pain in the asked for the 0:23:44.640 --> 0:23:49.520 engineering department. So what management did is they went to 0:23:49.960 --> 0:23:55.120 Walmart and they bought everyone a sippy cup and they 0:23:55.200 --> 0:23:59.120 passed out. Everyone got their own sippy cup at at 0:23:59.160 --> 0:24:01.760 Fox Sports Radio. That was the solution to the problem. 0:24:02.960 --> 0:24:05.359 They were large sippy cups, but they were sippy cups 0:24:05.359 --> 0:24:08.679 that would not supposedly would not spill. And so that 0:24:08.720 --> 0:24:10.880 I remember that. And I don't know that they ever 0:24:10.960 --> 0:24:14.040 caught the person that did it. I think they know 0:24:14.119 --> 0:24:16.359 who did it, but they were like, we weren't really 0:24:16.359 --> 0:24:19.240 sure because nobody, nobody said it. They just tried to 0:24:19.240 --> 0:24:21.399
