• 0:48
  Speaker 1: from today. It is odd like Donkey Kong, Danny, the

• 1:08
  Speaker 1: boots on the ground in Foxboro. And I don't know
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: about the Seahawks, but I assume they'll be on their
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: way today. Maybe the Seahawks are going tomorrow, but they'll
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: be in northern California for the big game, and so
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: that'll be what everyone's yapping about this week. And I'm

• 1:30
  Speaker 1: champion in the NFL.
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And as we are doing this, I'm packing my bags,
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: trying to figure out how to squish everything into maybe
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: two carry ons. Can I get away with not doing
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: a checked bag, that's the question.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Well, the company, I'm sure will pay for it, so
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: you don't need to worry about that.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: You're that's true, but they don't pay you until much later,
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: so the money still has to come out of your
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: pocket initially.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I knowing we're I've stayed in the past.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, are you Are you staying in the Tenderloin district?
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Is that where you're being put up? That's the case.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: I would not bring anything. I would just leave everything,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: just bring one pair of clothes and then and then
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: that's it. But yeah, you'll be You'll be there. I'll

• 2:19
  Speaker 1: I'll be there. We'll be doing this podcast from Radio Row.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: I know they changed the name of it, but to me, forever,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: as long as I'm alive, the term, the colloquial term
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: will be Radio Row. That's what it was. Just like
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: I will still call the Washington Commanders the Washington Redskins,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: and the Cleveland Guardians will be the Cleveland Indians, because
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: that's the name that I had for most of my life,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: and Radio Row was the name. I know. They're trying
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: to become cool with the influencer, crowd nanny. They're really
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: all about that now. They want those those influencers involved.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: They even hired a guy with a with a with
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: a record, a rap sheet. They hired a guy to
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: be their their director of kindness and all that.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: Oh I thought you were talking about Stukets. Oh yeah, record.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: He might he might have made a record at some point.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Steve Gott I guess to meet him this week. Unbelievable.

  Speaker 1: How about that he does the show from Miami, So
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: we have actual letters. So we just get to the

  Speaker 1: you can contact us. We thank you. A lot of
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: people lately, I do like this, have been sending stories
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: that they think are interesting. It's become a new thing
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: on the mailbag. I don't mind that. I'm cool with that.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: I like that. That's fun. We can play around with
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: these different stories. For example, I'm sure this is just
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: a coincidence. A Kuinky dink Danny. The first one's from
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Peter in Chicago, and he sends a story out of Louisville, Kentucky.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: And he says, Ben, can we get some tinderny tips
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: about that? That's og from Danny g on whether this
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: is money well spent or not. So Danny, he sends
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: a story here. The Louisville Nature Center is running a
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: promotion for Valentine's Day. They will let you name a
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: roach a cockroach after your ex for Valentine's Day, and
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: then they will feed it to a turtle. So that
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: is the deal. And this guy Peter wants to know,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: do you think it's money well spent or not? And
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: by the way, for the record, according to this what
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Peter sent me, it's going to cost you twenty or
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: thirty dollars to have a cockroach eaten by a turtle.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: I think the most interesting thing out of all this
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: is how you say Louisville, because I said that when
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: I worked on NBC Sports Radio back in the day
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: a couple of years before Tinderony Tips and Brian Weber
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: from the NFL network ripped my head off on the
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: air and he said, Danny, shit it with me, Louisville.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Well, I know Weber, he used to fill in for me,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: and screw him. No, that's what I said. You know,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: it's people know what we're getting at, right, You got
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: to just kind of be in the area, and uh
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: yeah no. But as far as this.
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: Though, Louisville, Louisville, Louisville.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: You're right there at church Churchill Now is not far
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: away from there, And you're at that right there at
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Churchill Now. He's got a guy, big fan of the
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: Overnight show. He works at the stables at Churchill Downs.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: Ben if this was tinderony tips. I'd say, let the
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: past go. You don't even pay attention to what's going
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: on with your cockreach. You've got to move forward with
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: your life.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: Well that's nice and all. But Danny, here's my thing
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: to me, the angle and Peter the angle on this is,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: how can we do something similar, Danny, What a great hustle,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: what a great of course, they say, it's all for charity,
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: and it goes to keep the Louis Louv Louv Nature
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Center going. But twenty to thirty bucks, how much? How
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: can we find cockroaches there?
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: Everywhere?
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Right, there's cockroaches all over the place. So we'd hoard
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: up some cockroaches and then you see me you send
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: them a little video. I guess it's thirty dollars if
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: you want a video of the Oh yeah, just go
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: in the ceiling at work, Danny. There's a bunch of cockroachs.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, where we work. It used to be at Denny's.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: Way back in the day when I was a little kid,
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: I ate at that Denny's.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Ben Oh, I never ate at that Denny's, although I
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: did eat the Denny's down the street. There's a Denny's
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: down the street down Ventura No Paulvitter down to Pulvtter.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: There's a Denny's and that's the Denny's where it's wrapped
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: around a hotel. Yeah, is really cool because that's where
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: all hookers hang out in between on their break. They
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: go in there to have a deal.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: I'm a doctor and it's connected to that hotel, that
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: shady hotel. Remember that there was something where the power
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: was out right and I had to stay there. I
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: think you stayed there one time as well for work.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've stayed a few times. The last last time
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: I didn't stay at that hotel. I was there for Karmageddon.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: Remember Karmageddon. Here's They were worried that we wouldn't be
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: able to get to work, so they got us hotel rooms.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: And they were probably so upset Danny because there was
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: no traffic for Carmageddon and they wasted all that money.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: It's kind of like those if you if you live
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: in a city like and it rained or not rains
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: but snows, they'll give. Like my guys, I was friends
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: with the morning guys at w E I and Jerry
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Callahan and those guys, and when they had a snow storm,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: they'd get them a hotel room right next to the
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: radio station and they pay for it.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, I heard Dan Patrick doing this last week
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: with the dan Etts, going into the weekend where there
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: was going to be eleven feet of snow in Connecticut.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: He offered to get hotel rooms for the crew next
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: to the studio.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Well that he's got like seventy five sidekicks, so that's expensive.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: He's gonna have to rent a higher hotel.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Dan, I'm gonna.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Cost you some money. Mike in Fullerton writes, and he says,
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: Happy February. First, Ben and Danny g I've got two
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: heavy hitting questions. First, do you guys hold drinks in
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: your left or right hand? I'm right handed, but I
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: mainly use my left. Let's do that one first. I
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: usually use my left hand too. I believe I do
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: use my left hand. It's weird though, because I use
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: my now that I think about it, I use my
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: left hand to hold it, and then when I drink it,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: I'll usually put in my right hand.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: Don't you use your left hand to hold it and
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: your right hand to mix the drink up with your straw?
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: No, but I like what I'll do is I'll hold
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: it with my left hand and then when I want
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: to drink it, I'll transfer it to the right hand.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: You know what, But with you with your right hand,
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: you're holding straw? Am I I don't know, No, that's
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: Rich Davis.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: Hey, it's Rich Davis.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah. We tease him in Las Vegas because he always
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: has that name, all straw and all his drinks. Well, like,
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: you know, you look like a big time pussy with
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: that right.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Well, now, in Vegas, that'll cost you like eight hundred
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: dollars that drink. And you know, a walk with the straw,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: the loop d loop straw, that'll cost you a lot, yeah,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: he says Danny. G are you as excited for this
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: year's NFL draft as you were for the one nine
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: years ago? Ben was flabbergasted by you being a fan
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: of the draft. So I'm wondering if anything changed for
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: your sake. I hope Fernando Mendoza will be better as
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: a first round pick than the one the Raiders took
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: nine years ago. Garn Conley, I don't even remember that.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: Oh Gary Conley, Yeah from Ohio State.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: How'd that work?
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: He had flashes of brilliance, and those flashes were very
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: small and he's out of the league. I got to
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: cover one Raiders game before they left Oakland and it
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: happened to be against the Cleveland Browns. Gary on Conley
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: made the play of the game and ran it back
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: for a pick six, the big highlight of the game
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: for the Raiders. The Raiders actually pulled out the victory.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it is nice though that the Raiders, since they
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: don't win that often. You remember the wins. The wins
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: stand out. They don't win very much, so when they.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: Were Yeah, oh, and I'm excited about the draft. I
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: don't think there's a high probability that Fernando Mendoza is
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: going to get lost in the Purple train.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: No, he might leave the Raiders to go on a
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: mission somewhere or something like that. Right, there's a chance
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: that he might leave the team for other reasons. But
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: not that Connley, the guy that was posted photos with guns.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: There was some Raider draft picked.
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: That was no. No, I know you're talking about. That
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: wasn't in Conley. Binley never got into trouble. Okay, he
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: was a good dude on and off the field. He
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: just his play was very inconsistent.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Was it defensive back, I remember, I.
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: Think it was Yeah, it was a corner.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the guy they drafted, I think in the same
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: draft with with the wide receiver. I think anyway, all right,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Alf from the kitchen rights in, He says, Ben, now
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: that you're on the YouTube with Benny versus the Penny,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: have you fallen off the wagon and gone full Benny
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: Crocker and gotten back to your cookie roots. He also says,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: what's in the box in the mail room? Well, Alf,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: I appreciate you. You did send something, Alf, and it's
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: it's still in the mail room. As far as I know,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: I didn't see it. I didn't make a trip to
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: the mail room, which is right next to the Coast
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: to Coast studio where George Norri does his show. Well
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: not right next to it, but it's on that floor
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: in the building, and I didn't see it. And we
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: our mail service is it's it's the opposite of the
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: Pony Express, Danny. It's it's very odd. It's I feel
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: like we're in prison and they dropped the mail off
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: once a month or something like that. It's very bizarre.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: But I did not get the mail out. And as
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: far as the Benny the Baker stuff. I have started
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: baking a little bit. In fact, I just made this
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: weekend white chocolate Macadamian the cookies, which I love. It's very,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: very bad racist. I used to when I covered the
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: Clippers back when they played at the sports arena, the
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: Mausoleum as we called it. Back of the day when
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: no one went to their games. One of the perks
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: of being in the media. There was this local cookie
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: place called Snookies Cookies, which I don't know if they're
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: still around or not. They're in a southern California cookie
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: shop and they would drop off cookies for the media
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: and there was no media. The Clippers had no media
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: because they were the Clippers. So we would leave with
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: boxes of their cookies and they were amazing because no
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: media ate them because there was no media. They were
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: free and I got so fat on those, but they
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: my favorite. One of those Snooky cookies was the macadamia
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: nut chalk white chocolate macadamianus. I've made a ripoff version
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: at home, so but I'm trying trying to be good.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Danny and and for.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: We must have been laying in bed with those back then,
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: and you're big eating you were like cookie monster.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, I boxes them and they were so
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: covered in grease that you know, the paper was covered
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: in grease because they've been sitting around for a little
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: bit and I didn't care. They're good, so so great,
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: and miss well.
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: By the way, really quick to circle all the way
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: back around. That was cornerback damon our net.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: Okay, I apologize to whoever else I claimed.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah you were. You were trying to indict Gary on Conley.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: I just you know, you think raider defensive back. I
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: don't know. It's all one giant purple or silver and
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: black ball of.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: Whatever name, one big NFL book on exactly.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: JT the Wingman rights in from Knoxville, Tennessee adjacent. He says,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: dear Ben and Danny g Is, I wonder what to
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: do on a weekend with no NFL football. I am
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: quickly reminded that it's going to snow here in eastern Tennessee.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: I thought I left this stuff behind in Wisconsin, says JT. Now,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: since Ben and ferg Dog is in the snow capital
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: of the America in Fullerton and you are close, I
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: figured I could get advice on what to do with
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: all this snow that has fallen as I have quickly
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: forgotten from my Wisconsin is thanks your beloved fan JT.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: The wingman who's likely on the treadmill right now. He
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: also says he asked, Danny needs to introduce little CoA
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: to snow at a young age. Have you taken CoA
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: to the snow yet?
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: Danny?
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: No, you gotta do it. Man, gotta have a snowball
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: fight with the little fella. That's the movie.
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: Man. This kid wiles out like a psychopath around puddles.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: Can you imagine him with snow.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: Get him a snow sled. Come on, you gotta do it, Danny,
• 15:22

• 15:31
  Speaker 1: at a great age. I mean, you love it. That's awesome. Yeah.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: I didn't even really go to the snow when I
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: was really little. I think the first time I went
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: to the snow was in the cub Scouts. We had
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: a field trip up into a thick Big Bear. I
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: think we went to Big Bear and we had a
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: cabin and it was snow and I was like, the
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: most amazing thing. I was like, Wow, this is just
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: like the movies. It is wild and crazy and all that.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: And I mentioned I think I mentioned this over the weekend.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: I don't know all these all these podcasts are the same, Danny,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: and all them podcasts are the same. My brother who
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: lives in I don't know what you're talking about. But
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: my older brother, who's a nut job, he goes out
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: running every morning around the streets of Manhattan, right, so
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: he's running along, and he sent me a bunch of
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: photos from the Hudson River which was covered in chunks
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: of ice. It was so cold in Manhattan this week,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: and he was sending me this. And then my other
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: brother lives in Appleton, Wisconsin, which is just south of
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Green Bay, the frozen tundra. And these guys grew up
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: in the same environment I grew up in. We all
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: grew up in the same house. And these two knuckleheads
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: live in New York's not as cold as Wisconsin, but
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: it's like this time of the year. The other day, Nanny.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: In fact, I text my brothers. I said, we really
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: had it got really cold here. I had to turn
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: the air on. It got down into the sixties with
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: the air condition because it was in the eighties. Outside
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: it's like two degrees or something like that. The other
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: day it was insane, wacky, wacky wacky. As far as
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: snow removal though, JT. I've seen those videos online. Have
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: you seen this nanny where they take the blow torch
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: really effect not safe, but really effective for snow The
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: blow torch really good.
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: They see the trick, the viral trick that was going
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: around where people lay the big blue tarp down and
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: then just pull the tarp that way they don't have
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: to clear their you know, they're stooped.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: No I'm not good. I like that go down.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: You don't have to shovel the walkway if you haven't
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: tarp down. You know, the snow gets heavy enough on
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: there and then you just pull the whole tarp and
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: just drag it.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's cool. I did see somebody had a robotic
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: like the way Mow of snow removal that will go
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: up and down your driveway and it's automatic. You just
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: say it's like, set it and forget it. Imagine how
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: much that must cost though, that can't.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: Be cheap, no way.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: George from the Bay writes in and he says, hello, gentlemen,
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: I hope your weekend is going well. I wanted to
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: get your thoughts on the influencer and he sends a
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: story here. George says an influencer who weighs four hundred
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: and sixty pounds called the police on a gym in
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Brazil after he allegedly was refused membership for being too fat.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: The guy is thirty five in Sal Paulo, and the
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: gym said he cannot participate. He was in a swimming class,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: a trial swimming class, and they said it was a
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: safety risk. So sounds fattist to me, h, Danny, I was.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: I was fatter than four to sixty at my biggest
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: and I would certainly not call the cops. You know,
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: is that a crime the gym's claiming from what this guy,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: George said, the gym's claiming a safety risk, which kind
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: of it kind of makes some sense, I don't. I
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: guess the only reason you'd call the cops is because
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: you're an influencer, right, Dan, If you're gonna you're an influencer,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: the cops, right if you're not. I wasn't an influencer.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: I was just the person.
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: Is he going to shed the weight though, you know,
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: doesn't have a starting point.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, according to this, he's actually lost he's lost
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: two hundred pounds, so he must have been like seven
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: hundred pounds or something close to say.
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: Damn. He was like and it's like when the late
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: great rapper Big Pun came to do an interview at
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: my radio station. Yeah, they lifted him up in a
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: crane to get him up the stairs to our building. No,
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: they didn't crane. The record company rented a like one
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: of those little crane things to pick them up.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: Yikes. How do you end up in that spot? How
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: do you whatever happens? Is he still he's not alive anymore?
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: Is he?
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: Unfortunately he went to a camp and I won't say
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: the F word, he lost a lot of weight, but
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: he lost it to rap and so it hurt his
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: vital organs and he passed away.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Ah that sucks.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: I remember there was a place, yeah, the umpire Eric
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Greg remember Eric Greg?
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, there's a place at Duke. I think
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: Duke was known for that that they had the big
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: Like if you you needed to go to the fat farm,
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: you you'd go. Oh, I said, it, I said, fat
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: farm me. Did you go down there? You and I
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: just that was the that was the movement. That's wild.
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: You think losing the weight's great, but then if you
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: do lose it too fast, I know you're you're you
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: have all kinds of problem, not just your organs, but
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: your hair. If you lose weight, that's your hair will
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: fall out.
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: It's it's it's way too much stress on your whole
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: system if you do it too quickly.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty pretty wacky, all right. Brian from Minneapolis writes
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: into the mail bag, says, hey, bandon, Danny uh oh,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: he wants to talk about the Bella check thing. He says,
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: we can all agree that those who voted for Belichick
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: to be in the Hall of Fame believe that even
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: though he got caught twice for cheating, that he served
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: his punishment should get in. Those who didn't believe that
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: he should have gotten a harsher punishment. If not an
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: outright Ben, he says.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: Big Ben, I told you about this on the Odd Couple.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: Back in twenty twenty. He says, in either way, shouldn't
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: be real questions? Shouldn't the real questions rather be about
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: the man up top of all of it, and he's
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: talking about Roger Goodell, foresaw both scandals, handed down the punishments.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Deep down, the voters hate Goodell and in a way,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: they think Belichick is his boy. Should the questions that
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: are asked of those who didn't vote Belichick in b
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: do you have confidence that the commissioner would render the
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: right decision in both cases? If not, do you have
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: confidence that he should still be the commissioner? Also? Do
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: you believe that the commissioner's inconsistency regarding punishments, players, coaches,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: et cetera. Would leave you to believe that he did
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: more damage to the integrity of the sport than what
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: Belichick did. That's from Brian.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: That is way too well written for this show.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: Brian obviously educated something that we're not used to. Yeah,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: so it's I think you're going too deep on this, Brian.
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: I do based on what I have seen from the
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: people that have voted, and I know the names. I
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: actually know some of these people. I've worked alongside them
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: in press boxes over my years in the in the
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: media business, so I know some of them casually. These
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: are not the brightest people in the world either. I mean,
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: I neither am I, But they're not thinking like that.
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: They got swayed. It was a zoom call. I don't
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: think it cuts that deep. And some of it is
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: personal because Belichick was a total dick in Dayton. You know,
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: it was a schmuck and he treated people poorly, and
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: so I think there are some of that. But even if, like,
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: even if you thought he was an a hole guy,
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: he's voting him into the Hall of Fame. It's not
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: the Baseball Hall of Fame, even the Baseball Hall of Fame,
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: as I ranted about in the middle of the night
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: this week, allowing you cheating asshole to do that here Carlos,
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: the Carls Belt trying to get in the Hall of Fame,
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: so and Belichick will get in and all that and
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: then you know, so, anyway, you guys spent a lot
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: of time on that this week, Danny ranting about Belichick.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: It seemed to be the story. Everyone was yapping about it.
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, thankfully, the guys really only talked about it the
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: day that the news broke during our show. They talked
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: about it that day in a little bit the next day,
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: and then they dropped it after that, which was good.
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: I didn't want to hear about it any longer.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: I like the voters that are announcing slowly. It's like
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: a leaking fossil announcement. Why didn't vote for Belichick? And
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: here's why? My favorite Yes, the.
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: Essay I wrote on why I made my decision the
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: way I.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Did to pay wall at a newspaper.
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, make sure you I don't care and I don't
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: want to read your explanation.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: All right, Reggie from Detroit, Reggie, I hope you were
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: listening to the radio show this week. You got a
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: shout out from Shane and the Moye. Shane in the
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Moyne a fan of Reggie from Detroit. He says, Ben,
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: that's a big time Ben, and Danny are you? And
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: he says, Ben, are you? And Joe Rogan related. I
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: saw this and I thought it's something that you would do.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: And apparently Joe Rogan was to be nominated for the
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: Golden Globe's Best Podcast Award. According to this what Reggie sent,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: except he refused to pay the five hundred dollars fee
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: to be not me. No, all right, Reggie, A I
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: didn't know about this. Be that is absolutely something that
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: I would do. That is I will. I am. I.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: If you're gonna give me an award, that's great, but
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: I'm not going.
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: To This is like back in the day when you
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: found out about Guinness Records.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, oh yeah, that's right, the Guinness World Records.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: I wanted to do a bit for the show where
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: we were going to have a Guinness World Record. I
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: thought it was great. I can't remember Danny. I came
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: up with all these different ideas.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you had a whole list.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: I had a whole bunch of things that we're gonna
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: do to said a Guinness Records. So I reached out
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: to the good people at Guinness. I said, listen, I
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: do a national radio show. I'm big fans of your company,
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: and I think this is great. We could do some
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: cross promotion here and I've got all these ideas. I
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: grew up with your book, yeah, the whole thing. And
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: they said sure, and then they I forget how much,
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: but they said, yeah, just there's a fee, and then
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: you have to be approved and what are you doing.
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: And you have to pay for their judges to fly
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: and watch break the records exactly now.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: The only one I would consider, Danny, because I think
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: it would be like, you know, at some point we're
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: all going to kick the bucket, and that's it would
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: be the Hollywood start, like the Walk of Fame, which
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: you can get. But that's like I think it's like
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: forty thousand dollars now it used to be ten thousand,
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: and that was twenty thousand. But I look at that
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: like a cemetery kind of thing, like people most people
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: don't even know the names when they walk by, but
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: it's like your name is there and all that. But
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: you have to pay for that too. So to me,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: anything you got to pay for that's a good hustle. Though,
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: because there are people we know in our business, Danny
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: and Radio and Reggie. There are people that work at
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: radio companies that certain magazines that I think only exist
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: Dandy to give out awards because they know that these
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: companies will pay big money to have their talent win awards.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: So it's a it's a rig deal in some of
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: these things. And yeah, but that's good. I would definitely.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm like Joe Rogan. I don't have as
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: much money as Joe Rogan, but I would not pay
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: five hundred dollars to be nominated for some gazy golden
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: gloamed podcast. The word please my God.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: Both titewads. That's where the similarities end.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah slightly, yes. Next up Kwang from Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: He has two questions. He says, Big Ben and Daddy
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: G Radio. He says, question number one, were you ever
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: employee of the month? That's question number one? Danny? Did
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: you ever win an award from the company free cupcakes?
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: Anything along those lines?
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: Are you kidding me? I'm thinking about the last FM
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: radio station I worked at. I was suspended with pay,
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: but I was suspended tully me because of something I
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: did on the air that they didn't like. But you know, hey, Ben,
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: that's how you get ratings, right, You toe the line.
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: You put your toe right on the line. And that's
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: what I did at that FM radio station. And it's
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: funny because the guy they had doing my afternoon show
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: while I was at home licking my wounds, he left
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: for another job at some Arizona radio station and they
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: called me back in and they put me back on
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: the air, and they gave me a bit of a
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: bump and pay because they needed my services again. So
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: they're like, hey, we got a little dip in the rating.
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: We need you to do your thing again. Nice I
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: had to last laugh. But yeah, I got the opposite
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: of employee of the month.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: I have never ever sniffed employee of the month. That does.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: I feel like that's the daytime thing. They don't give
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: it to people at night and they give you cupcakes or.
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: Something like that.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: You know, yeah, the employee of the month, we're going
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: to know, cupcakes in the break room or something like that. Well,
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: we don't have anything like that. Also, Quwang writes, and
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: he says, what happened to the phrase of the week
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: and backscratcher, And he points out he has not heard
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: these on the podcast in a while. That's Kwang in
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: Ho Chi Minh Vietnam guaranteed humans. So we did stop backscratcher.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: It wasn't intentional, Danny, I don't think any Yeah.
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: It just ran its course. Like a lot of things,
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: you know, shows evolved. You can't just stay doing the
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: same thing for years. There are staples like the mail bag,
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: but other than that, all the features change.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: Well, and even the mail bag is you know, it
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: flips around a little bit like if you want, Qwang,
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: we haven't. I haven't checked this in a while, but
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: we'll check backscratcher and we did.
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: It's probably the last one. It's probably twenty twenty four.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: No, we actually got we got a couple. We one
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: in October, Landscaper Shorty wrote five stars Big Ben and
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: Danny g are ten out of ten.
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: But that.
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: Then a white Connor, Danny white Connor wrote in this was.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: It's got to be racist, got to be racist.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: That's on twelve twenty two of last year, so just
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: not that. Well, I guess it's been a month. Wow
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: over a month. He says, if you need sports takes,
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: you have not heard or hear about a man who
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: takes ninety minute showers and misses the bus to a
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: professional sports event. This is your show. Well, that's a
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: great tribute to Helmet Man, who does talk about his
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: ninety minute showers, his Obama phone and everything else. He's
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: such a character. Helmetman's calling daytime shows. He called the.
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: Oh man, Am I on the live daytime air.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: He's so great. I'm actually on the live air. Yes,
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: you're on the He's quite the character. But to thank
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: you white Connor and thank you Landscaper Shorty, And if
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: you do want to review the podcast the Apple podcast
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: page podcast dot Apple dot com and then type in
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: fifth hour and write a little review on that and
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: it does help.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: And with a name like Connor, we already know you're white.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: Hello this podcast. I did not know this until I
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: looked at the podcast page. I've been doing this thing
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: with you for a while. I was with Guess Khan.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: I started this in twenty nineteen, seven years now of podcasting.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: Seven years of podcasting. Danny, WHOA, that's wild.
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: And I mean you and I have done almost nine
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: hundred episodes. It is in insane.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: I guess you just keep your head down and all
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: of a sudden the numbers go up, up and away.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: Scotty from Florida rights inder the mailbag. He says, Ben
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: and Danny. With the Super Bowl coming up next week,
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: I am once again reminded that Janet Jackson is a
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: national hero who got a raw deal. Would Roger Goodell
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: spontaneously combust if that t bow moment happened in twenty
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: twenty six, or would he immediately start monetizing the viral
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: moment because that's what the NFL does. Yeah, Well, at
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: the time, Danny, I was on the air during that
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl, and we didn't even realize why right away.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: You got understand twenty was it twenty years ago? Right?
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: I think it was twenty years ago. Like people weren't
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: on social media. Twitter did not exist. Social media was
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: much different, so it was it. It was like a
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: little bit laid reaction before people realized what had gone on.
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: And that's when you were dropping your mixtape on MySpace.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: My Space is huge. Yeah, well, times are different. I mean,
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: if you want to see that stuff, it's ever. You
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: can see boobies wherever you want. You don't need to
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: go on on an NFL halftime. I guess we might
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: see some from Bad Bunny at halftime. I don't know
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: the halftime show stuff. I don't get. I've never cared
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: about the halftime show. I just it's I don't I'm getting.
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: Well, you're the same guy that doesn't like bumper music,
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: so it's not exactly like, yeah, it's not surprising.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: If I want to see music, Danny, I'll go see music.
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: If I want to see football, see football. I don't,
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: you know. It's like it's like I don't for me,
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: it's everyone that gets worked up into a ladder. I
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: don't bad Bunny could come out buck naked and swing
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: a sausage around. I don't care. I'm not watching. I'm
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: not watching that. I'm going to eat some snacks.
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: I hope you don't care about that. It's well, no, but.
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: I've said I'll get my snacks, and then I know,
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: halftime at the super Bowl is always longer. It's always longer, right,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: so you got extra time and then you know, plan it,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: come back and you're you're on your way. Scott, thank
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: you so much, Scott, appreciate that and enjoy Uh yeah,
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: it wouldn't be as big a deal now. I feel
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: like everything so's zany now. I don't think it would
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: be that big a deal. Kevin from Hawaii writes in
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Aloha Kevin, he says Ben and Danny as a Ben
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: as a YouTuber. Now, does this story about YouTube deleting
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: AI slop channels make you feel good? He says, yeah,
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: So there's a story. YouTube this week announced they are
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: deleting they claim major AI slap slop channels with billions
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: of views. Billions of views, So a couple thoughts on this.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: First of all, Kevin, I'm jealous that you're in Hawaii.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: That's that's number one. Number two. This is a game
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: of whack a mole, and it can be won because
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: it's you're using AI. YouTube's using AI to fight AI.
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: The problem, as I have decoded over the years, Danny,
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: is that these AI content social media accounts. They make
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: the content, they then have the bot farm to view
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: the content, so it's a one stop shop. They do everything.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: They make the content, they then have the botfarms from
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: Moldova downloaded or view it, and then the company ends
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: up paying money for something that's total as they say,
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: slop here, so good good luck. It's like those there's
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: dudes making money with AI fake girl friend in the counts,
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: and there's like there's accounts of what appears to be
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: women that are not women there. I mean, it looks
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: like a woman, but it's not a real person, and
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: they're making money because horny dudes are watching the videos.
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: And this explains Iheart's new slogan guaranteed human.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: Yes, exactly guaranteed. It is nice though that it seems
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: people still value the human connection for now, for a
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: now I.
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: Have because this would spin out of control. It's already
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: we don't know what is fake, and we don't know
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: what's real and you have to triple check things. You
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: still get burned when you do live radio shows and
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: you look something up you don't know if it's real
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: or fake.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, not through that for sure. All right, last one,
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: we'll get out on this, Shane writes, and he says, Hey,
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Ben and Daddy g I live close to Peoria, Illinois.
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: I've heard you talk about it over the years. Ben,
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: It's not that exciting, he says. I've always loved Phil.
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: Shane says, I wish I lived where you guys do,
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: in near Hollywood, and I'm worried that in the future
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: that films will be going away because people can't sit
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: through him. And then he sent this link Danny that
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: says film students are having trouble sitting through movies because
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: they don't have the attention span to sit and watch
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: these long.
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: You know when he first said film, I rubbed my
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: tongue on my teeth about film, like who it was?
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: You think he's better than us? Does he also back
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: into his parking spaces? Is he talking about movies?
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's talking about movies.
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: Film is such a eyebrow thing when you're talking about
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: movies but yeah, I film school, that's one thing. And
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: when I had a break between radio jobs, actually looked
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: into like the New York Film Academy and I think
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: that was the name of the school, and there's one
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: here in Los Angeles. Because I was really interested in
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: maybe having, you know, behind the scenes.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: Job with the props and all that, so the crew.
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, or like a cameraman or yeah, if you got
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: to go to movie sets and you know, help create
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: the manager, that's cool.
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: My brother in law does that. He works behind the
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: scenes on TV shows and movies and he loves it.
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: And I didn't. I didn't know them.
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's he's part of the union. And unfortunately they
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: don't make as much stuff. There's not much being made
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: in Hollywood like there used to be. So it's you
• 37:34
