But they got to come up with a 0:01:47.400 --> 0:01:51.440 better name than that, just dopey. Anyway, I will be 0:01:51.480 --> 0:01:53.320 at that game, So if you're out there today, send 0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:55.720 me a message on the socials.

So I look forward to that. 0:02:00.000 --> 0:02:02.360 I haven't been to a game in like a week 0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:04.600 or a couple of weeks. Been a couple of weeks 0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:08.360 since I've been been out there schmoozing. But today on 0:02:08.360 --> 0:02:10.800 the podcast, it's the mail Bag. Before we get to 0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:14.639 the mail bag, though, we must first get to Pop 0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:18.520 goes the culture. So let's strike up the band with 0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:20.880 our friend. I hope he's in a better mood now, 0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:23.400 our guy, ohio al. 0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:35.760 John John. 0:02:37.200 --> 0:02:38.120 So here we go. 0:02:38.840 --> 0:02:41.120 Pop goes to the culture as some random stories that 0:02:41.160 --> 0:02:43.480 happened within the last week or so. That caught my 0:02:43.520 --> 0:02:46.200 attention that we did not mention on my show, The 0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:49.919 Overnight Show. So I saw this story that came out 0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:52.720 involving Netflix that's gotten a lot of attention this week. 0:02:52.919 --> 0:02:58.800 And Netflix, who has always protected the data on who's 0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:03.079 actually watching the show. They've always protected this like it's 0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:06.880 a state secret. They don't want anyone to know the information. Well, 0:03:06.919 --> 0:03:11.480 now for some reason they've decided, okay, we'll release some 0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:14.280 of this information. So I was reading in one of 0:03:14.280 --> 0:03:16.160 the trade papers, I think it was a Hollywood reporter. 0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:18.480 They had a big. 0:03:18.200 --> 0:03:23.920 Story about it was inside the Netflix data trove, And 0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:28.320 so they started snooping around and digging into the grass 0:03:28.360 --> 0:03:32.800 and all that stuff into the rough, and they determined 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:39.040 there are ten thousand Netflix programs that almost no one 0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:44.760 watched that are there and nobody almost no one clicked 0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:49.520 on it, no engagement, and they just put these shows 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:54.280 up and but nobody watched them, almost ten thousand shows. 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:57.120 Now is this just so they can have a complete 0:03:57.200 --> 0:03:59.160 library of programs available. 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:02.880 I look at it like a good deli, a good 0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:05.920 Jewish deli. You go to a good deli, it's you 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:07.280 only have these I don't know. If you've been to 0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:10.720 Canters in La. They are massive menu, right, massive manuon 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:13.440 or kind of like the cheese keke Factory, those restaurants 0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:16.480 that have massive menus. I'm convinced many of the items 0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:18.960 no one orders that there's It's kind of like the 0:04:19.000 --> 0:04:21.159 old thing that you say about cable television, where you 0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:25.279 get two hundred channels, but most people only watched like 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:27.200 thirteen or fourteen channels. 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:28.560 At the most. I think it's even less than that. 0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:30.960 I forget what the number was, but it's like less 0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:31.320 than that. 0:04:32.120 --> 0:04:34.600 And so just because you have a lot of variety 0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:39.360 does not mean that you're going to be It's impossible 0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:41.000 to watch a lot of that stuff anyway. I want 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:44.120 to know what the show that no one watched was. 0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:46.559 There's got to be a They say ten thousand shows 0:04:46.600 --> 0:04:47.719 had almost no viewers. 0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:50.200 I want to know the names. They did say. 0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:54.080 The Office is still a massive hit, they said outside 0:04:54.080 --> 0:04:56.760 the US, people love it globally. 0:04:56.839 --> 0:05:00.280 They can't get enough of the Office, which is off 0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:05.240 the air for many, many years. All right, what is 0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:05.880 next we have? 0:05:06.200 --> 0:05:10.080 Well, this is from social media on x Elon Musk 0:05:10.200 --> 0:05:14.159 had a hissy fit recently and a bunch of big 0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:19.159 corporations said we're done, We're not advertising on your platform. 0:05:19.360 --> 0:05:22.960 And so they've estimated now the sports business and sports business, 0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:26.240 the business people, not just sports business. They claim that 0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:32.720 that move, the advertising pullback, cost Elon Musk's social media 0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:40.520 platform one point five billion dollars one point five billion 0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:41.839 in lost advertise. 0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:45.600 Mind boggle. But then Elon Musk is worth. 0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:46.279 Like what is he worth? 0:05:46.320 --> 0:05:49.719 Ten billion or something like some ridiculous amounts, some insane 0:05:49.760 --> 0:05:50.960 amount of money. 0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:53.680 What else? On pop gost to culture? How about this one? 0:05:54.360 --> 0:06:00.880 Somebody on a airplane made his way from Russia to 0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:04.800 Los Angeles. The shocking part of this is not the 0:06:05.160 --> 0:06:09.520 plane landed from Russia to LA. The shocking part, according 0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:13.440 to The Guardian, is this guy did not have a passport. 0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:21.760 What Yeah, a Russian man traveled from Europe to LA 0:06:22.440 --> 0:06:27.400 without having a passport, flying his own plane. Now he 0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:31.960 was flying, he was flying skinned the Navian airlines on 0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:36.360 This happened in early November, and according to the tabloid, 0:06:36.400 --> 0:06:39.960 the London tabloid, there he was carrying Israeli and Russian 0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:44.960 identification and a phone and he had no idea how 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:47.320 he ended up on the flight in the first place. 0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:51.000 Say, what something fishy going on here? 0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:56.400 Somebody either he's lying or he got drugged or something 0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:56.880 like that. 0:06:57.040 --> 0:06:57.680 He took a. 0:06:57.600 --> 0:07:00.000 Twelve hour flight and didn't realize what happened. 0:07:00.800 --> 0:07:05.360 Remember how Jason Bourne couldn't remember things. Yeah, maybe maybe 0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:06.320 this guy's a spy. 0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:09.280 Could be guy told the FBI that he's employed in 0:07:09.360 --> 0:07:12.880 Russia as a PhD in economics and marketing. 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:15.560 I'm not a numbers guy, but that doesn't seem to 0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:16.000 add up. 0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:20.000 Yeah, he is now facing a federal charge of being 0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:24.320 a stowaway. Claim to the FBI, he does not remember 0:07:24.360 --> 0:07:27.200 the sequence of events leading him on a flight to. 0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:29.280 America. 0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:32.640 So all right, I guess he's in a La jail. 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:37.040 That's a federal federal crime. And he's Russian, so not 0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:38.160 that he cares. 0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:40.280 He won't be in that jail for long. They're going 0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:41.040 to break him out. 0:07:41.800 --> 0:07:43.560 Yeah, he'll be good, he'll be he'll be back in 0:07:43.640 --> 0:07:46.280 Russia before before you know, people waited. 0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:48.160 You see how long people were waiting for that in 0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:50.720 and out burger in Idaho that opened up. 0:07:51.320 --> 0:07:53.280 I would wait for the rush to be over if 0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:53.920 I lived there. 0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:57.920 But will the rush be over within the next two 0:07:58.000 --> 0:07:59.600 or three months that that could go on a lot. 0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:01.760 Yeah, I was gonna say, you'd probably have to wait 0:08:01.800 --> 0:08:05.000 for I don't know, four months for the shiny newness 0:08:05.040 --> 0:08:06.120 to wear off a little bit. 0:08:07.240 --> 0:08:11.480 Eh, that's crazy, man.

Anyway, I saw this. Several listeners actually sent 0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:45.800 this story. 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:52.520 A whistleblower claims that a seamless metallic UFO was kept 0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:57.440 inside Area fifty one and they said that X rays 0:09:57.480 --> 0:10:00.000 could not penetrate it. 0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:02.440 Have big eyes. 0:10:03.440 --> 0:10:05.200 Yeah, this was just hang out. They had it. 0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:07.520 They could press around with it and all that is. 0:10:07.840 --> 0:10:14.040 It could not penetrate what was inside this UFO an 0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:19.480 area fifty wor key Yeah, soll kinds of crazy crazy 0:10:19.480 --> 0:10:21.439 stuff out there. I'm convinced, I've said this before on 0:10:21.520 --> 0:10:26.680 this podcast, that the iPhone is alien technology. I am 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:32.000 one hundred percent convinced that that came from recovered spacecrafts, 0:10:32.200 --> 0:10:33.680 and that's how it goes. 0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:35.800 Have you been to the Spear? You've not been to the. 0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:38.520 Spirit in Vegas, right, we've I haven't. 0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:39.520 Yeah. 0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:43.080 So I saw that they're already planning on building MSG, 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:45.560 which owns the Spear, is already planning on making two 0:10:45.679 --> 0:10:49.400 more of those around the world, at least two more, 0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:51.880 two international markets. 0:10:52.640 --> 0:10:56.400 And there's already gotten so much attention. I can see 0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:59.400 this being a big hit in other countries. 0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:02.559 Yeah. But if they're if they're pop up all over. 0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:05.319 The place, then well I don't think it's that easy 0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:08.280 obviously for them to pop up, because what did they 0:11:08.320 --> 0:11:11.480 spend like two billion dollars to make that thing? 0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:14.040 Yeah, it was it was a ton of money. 0:11:13.920 --> 0:11:19.240 They were talking about, uh talks MSG would put a 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:24.480 spear in the Abu Dhabi area. Well, they've got that 0:11:24.559 --> 0:11:27.120 oil money over there, right, so that's no problem. 0:11:27.160 --> 0:11:29.360 They could use that with interest. 0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:31.320 They have that live golf money. 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:36.040 Yeah, and there's also talk of putting one in Korea. 0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:39.280 I'm guessing not North Korea though, I think just you know, 0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:42.000 the regular spot there South Korea, I think. 0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:42.360 We'd get that. 0:11:42.440 --> 0:11:45.760 But there you go. A couple of Spears and uh 0:11:46.040 --> 0:11:46.520 saw one of the. 0:11:46.520 --> 0:11:50.600 Story who's going to replace the The act is changing 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:54.280 at the Spear here the residency is changing. 0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:56.280 Oh yeah, it's gonna be Carrot Top. 0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:03.319 Yeah, with Penn and Teller no Ah. John Mayer has 0:12:03.360 --> 0:12:06.760 been linked to the Spear with that. That the reading 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:07.319 for you, right? 0:12:07.440 --> 0:12:10.560 Oh way, I don't want to see John Mayer get 0:12:10.559 --> 0:12:11.080 out here. 0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:13.240 I have to wait. You don't have to wait to. 0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:15.960 I'd rather see Michael Mayor of the Raiders. 0:12:16.280 --> 0:12:18.480 Oh, there you go, or what's the guy that used 0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:20.679 to work at Fox Sports Radio, the Mayor producer? 0:12:20.720 --> 0:12:22.640 Get yeah, Mike Mayor, Mike Mayor. 0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:23.600 There you go, Mike Mayor. 0:12:23.960 --> 0:12:26.800 Let's get to the Uh well, we have backscratcher.

So we'd like to get at least 0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:47.200 a couple every week, and we went about a month 0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:50.320 with none. But now people are starting to realize that 0:12:50.360 --> 0:12:52.640 we're pathetically begging and you're helping us out. 0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:57.200 We thank you. This week we have two reviews, Danny. 0:12:57.400 --> 0:12:58.480 Two reviews this week. 0:12:58.520 --> 0:13:03.600 The first one from Gates Lion, who says Ben and Danny, 0:13:03.600 --> 0:13:05.920 g you guys have a great podcast. 0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:07.040 You deserve great reviews. 0:13:07.080 --> 0:13:10.839 Management, however, I have a review for you. You are 0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:15.800 a one star. Back off having the guys plead for reviews. 0:13:16.720 --> 0:13:20.600 Oh no, just helpful, Danny, because they're gonna know. 0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:26.720 Management reads this stuff. We just talked about this last weekend. 0:13:27.080 --> 0:13:30.920 Yeah, okay, well that was not helpful, sir. How dare you? 0:13:30.960 --> 0:13:33.680 And then we we have who else do we have here? 0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:37.240 Thank you for the five stars? But god again, it's 0:13:37.360 --> 0:13:38.240 the fight Club. 0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:40.600 Yeah, you can't talk about it. 0:13:40.679 --> 0:13:43.480 James and Arkansas rights and he says, happy holidays, gentlemen. 0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:48.680 This is a review on the podcast Bitch the Apple 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:49.240 podcast Pitch. 0:13:49.280 --> 0:13:51.800 There's a link in the description. Danny put it up. 0:13:51.840 --> 0:13:55.240 He says, has a random thought when I was watching 0:13:55.480 --> 0:14:02.040 my Vikings dominate the Raiders dominate on Sunday with your 0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:07.160 podcast could use a note of encouragement. Unlike the Vikings 0:14:07.200 --> 0:14:11.960 offense without Kirk Cousins, your podcast never disappoints five stars 0:14:11.960 --> 0:14:14.960 only because they don't allow six, and then he wanted 0:14:15.040 --> 0:14:18.600 us to promote old miss basketball coach Chris Beard. 0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:21.520 Who let's get. 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:24.120 To the mailbag. That means ohio Al is back one 0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:24.600 more time. 0:14:24.880 --> 0:14:40.920 It's mail bag, all right, thank you, ohio Al. 0:14:41.120 --> 0:14:46.880 These are actual letters by actual consumers of the product, 0:14:46.920 --> 0:14:52.480 people that enjoy the product enough to have sent in correspondence, 0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:55.800 which is kind of cool. The first one from Alf 0:14:55.880 --> 0:15:01.920 the Alien Opiners is Alf from the New Year. He writes, in, gentlemen, 0:15:02.040 --> 0:15:06.000 looking in to my crystal ball, it's time. 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:07.160 It's that time of the year. 0:15:07.720 --> 0:15:09.880 It's time of the year when you go into the 0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:13.680 ben cave, recharge your batteries and write new rejoin copy 0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:15.880 for the show, he says. 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:21.480 Question one, Will you be using hard words like dingy nexte? 0:15:21.720 --> 0:15:29.720 Yeah, famous famous story. A number of our coworkers did 0:15:29.880 --> 0:15:32.280 not know what a dinghy is. At least they didn't 0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:35.920 know how to spell dinghy or pronounce dinghy, which in 0:15:36.000 --> 0:15:41.240 many ways made them a dingy. Uh So, yeah, I 0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:43.840 try to mix it up. I've been doing these things, Alf, 0:15:43.880 --> 0:15:45.440 as you know, you've been with me a long time. 0:15:45.520 --> 0:15:46.040 I've been doing. 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:49.320 They do these every year, and if we had a 0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:51.640 guy I don't know a producer or something like that 0:15:51.640 --> 0:15:53.160 that they would do it, but I ended. 0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:56.000 Up doing it. Wait, I thought Coop wrote this stuff. 0:15:56.720 --> 0:16:00.600 Hey, yeah, that's the ticket. Yeah yeah, he writes all 0:16:00.640 --> 0:16:02.240 of it. He writes to the monologues, the whole thing. 0:16:02.840 --> 0:16:05.320 So I do it once a year and I try 0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:08.280 to mix it up with different verbiage so it sounds 0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:10.920 somewhat fresh at least for the first month, and then 0:16:11.000 --> 0:16:12.800 by the end of the year you're ready for new 0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:13.960 new words. 0:16:14.520 --> 0:16:15.640 I'm not sure when I'm gonna do that. 0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:19.720 I'm not taking as much time off as I have 0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:22.840 in the past, a couple of days here and there. 0:16:22.920 --> 0:16:24.600 I'm not taking the full week like I have in 0:16:24.640 --> 0:16:26.240 the past because I still got to do the TV 0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:29.720 show and ALV Also, is this question two for you, gentlemen? 0:16:29.720 --> 0:16:32.440 Can you eliminate the part where you ask us to 0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:36.520 tag members of the crew in our tweets? Apparently some 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:41.280 members of the Update staff are not fans of that 0:16:41.520 --> 0:16:46.160 copy and mute loyal followers as a result. I wonder 0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:49.800 who he's talking about things that make you go who hum? 0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:52.480 Could that be a Steelers fan he's talking about. 0:16:53.160 --> 0:16:53.640 I don't know. 0:16:54.280 --> 0:16:58.880 I have no idea, but thank you, al duly noted nuts. 0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:02.440 It rhymes with Freddy Farcia. 0:17:02.640 --> 0:17:05.240 Kevin in Kansas, right since, says dear Ben and Danny G. 0:17:05.840 --> 0:17:10.440 After watching Patrick Mahomey Patrick mahomes come unglued last week, 0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:15.360 it made me reflect on my own fusses go badly. 0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:19.040 Sometimes it doesn't take much for my short fuse to 0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:22.160 go off. Other times my fuse is really really long. 0:17:22.480 --> 0:17:25.760 What is something that happens in your life that will 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:27.240 set you off pretty quick? 0:17:28.160 --> 0:17:28.360 Yeah? 0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:32.640 So I usually have one or two meltdowns a year, 0:17:33.119 --> 0:17:36.639 and that's it in terms of my fuse is pretty long. 0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:41.960 The thing that really annoys me is dumb drivers. I 0:17:41.960 --> 0:17:46.640 get really annoyed by that. Lately when I see people 0:17:46.960 --> 0:17:51.720 driving alone with their windows up wearing masks. That also 0:17:51.760 --> 0:17:54.880 annoys me for some reason, not that I do anything 0:17:54.920 --> 0:17:56.960 about it. I'm like, just how stupid could this person be? 0:17:57.480 --> 0:18:00.000 It just fascinates me that kind of thing. 0:18:00.000 --> 0:18:03.200 Everybody knows you get COVID by driving on the freeway. 0:18:03.240 --> 0:18:07.680 Ben, Yes, driving your Toyota with the windows up, you 0:18:07.800 --> 0:18:10.520 must wear a mask. It's very very important. So that 0:18:10.640 --> 0:18:12.320 just I just roll my eyes. I'm like, what are 0:18:12.320 --> 0:18:16.520 we doing here? But people that are bad drivers people 0:18:16.520 --> 0:18:18.080 that don't signal. 0:18:17.920 --> 0:18:20.000 When you're driving. I don't mind if you're going to cut. 0:18:19.880 --> 0:18:22.160 Me off, but at least signal, you know, at least 0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:24.760 signal that kind of stuff. 0:18:24.800 --> 0:18:27.720 What about you, Danny, Yeah, I'm like you. I don't 0:18:27.720 --> 0:18:33.040 have meltdowns very often. Only once or twice a day 0:18:34.240 --> 0:18:37.639 with Cavino, once with Rich when I'm in the nothing 0:18:37.680 --> 0:18:40.840 with that show except for their podcast. When I'm in 0:18:40.880 --> 0:18:44.520 the production studio and I am putting the podcast together. 0:18:44.600 --> 0:18:48.760 For those guys, there's this thing, this platform, this website 0:18:49.000 --> 0:18:52.120 where we have to load the podcast to the finished 0:18:52.119 --> 0:18:55.960 product to shoot out to the world, and there's times 0:18:56.000 --> 0:19:00.919 where when you're using it, it just spins and spins relentlessly. 0:19:01.640 --> 0:19:04.800 It will not load. And when that happened, and I 0:19:04.840 --> 0:19:06.560 want to go home, I want to have dinner, I 0:19:06.560 --> 0:19:09.320 want to see my kid when this is going on, 0:19:09.400 --> 0:19:12.800 and I can't leave the studio until I know that 0:19:12.840 --> 0:19:16.840 it's posted worldwide. And the same thing happens sometimes with 0:19:16.960 --> 0:19:19.760 this podcast. So I sit there and I have to 0:19:19.960 --> 0:19:23.600 stare at this thing spinning, and when that happens, I 0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:26.720 lose it. I realized that when I was in the 0:19:26.760 --> 0:19:29.600 studio on last Thursday, when the Raider game was on. 0:19:30.440 --> 0:19:32.280 I wanted to get home so I could see the 0:19:32.320 --> 0:19:34.760 second half of the game, and it was doing the 0:19:34.800 --> 0:19:38.199 stupid spinning thing, and I took my fist and I 0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:40.200 slammed it on the wood table in there. 0:19:40.800 --> 0:19:42.119 Take that for data. 0:19:43.119 --> 0:19:46.360 The whole studio shook, and I was like, oh, oh, 0:19:46.640 --> 0:19:51.040 I better be careful with these these meltdowns with the podcasts. 0:19:52.880 --> 0:19:56.679 That's that's completely reasonable. Those computers with the spinning wheel. 0:19:58.240 --> 0:20:01.360 That is like from the Devil's Play, that spinning wheel, right, 0:20:01.400 --> 0:20:01.720 I mean. 0:20:01.600 --> 0:20:04.920 He's so it is. It is. That is a living hell. 0:20:04.960 --> 0:20:08.280 You're right. If God really was the kind of God 0:20:08.280 --> 0:20:10.760 who wanted to punish you, he could sit you in 0:20:10.760 --> 0:20:14.439 front of an old Macintosh and for forever have a 0:20:14.480 --> 0:20:17.760 spinning wheel in front of you on the screen. Yeah. 0:20:17.840 --> 0:20:20.400 I also, and we've talked about this, I love when 0:20:20.680 --> 0:20:23.840 the system updates happen while I'm on the air in 0:20:23.880 --> 0:20:25.800 the middle of the night and I need to use 0:20:25.880 --> 0:20:29.680 the computer and I can't use it for forty five 0:20:29.760 --> 0:20:33.080 minutes to an hour because it's updating, and you can't 0:20:33.119 --> 0:20:35.880 turn it off, and you can't stop it once it starts. 0:20:36.359 --> 0:20:37.040 You're screwed. 0:20:37.600 --> 0:20:40.280 Next up on the mailbag, Mike and Fullerton says mule 0:20:40.400 --> 0:20:43.480 tied Greetings Ben and Danny g with Shoheo Tani coming 0:20:43.520 --> 0:20:46.399 to town. Have you tube been brushing up on your 0:20:46.480 --> 0:20:49.119 Japanese at all? There's going to be a lot of 0:20:49.200 --> 0:20:53.359 Japanese sponsorship opportunities for you guys, and I'd hate for 0:20:53.440 --> 0:20:57.080 you to miss out. And if you want to shout 0:20:57.119 --> 0:21:01.280 out that dope Firg dog on any versus the petty 0:21:01.760 --> 0:21:04.119 while picking a lowly Charger. 0:21:03.800 --> 0:21:06.119 Game, would be the time to do so. 0:21:07.200 --> 0:21:09.720 Well, okay, look at that, Mike, You want me to 0:21:09.760 --> 0:21:13.160 promote that Ferg dog guy.
