- 0:31Speaker 1: Give me your school of thought on that.
- 0:33Speaker 2: Also, the Tampa Bay Rays have abandoned a one point
- 0:37Speaker 2: three billion dollars stadium plan in Florida.
- 0:41Speaker 1: What does that mean in the big picture. We'll talk
- 0:43Speaker 1: about that.
- 0:43Speaker 2: And rafe L Devers says he will do whatever the
- 0:47Speaker 2: Red Sox want him to do regarding third base and
- 0:51Speaker 2: designated hitter and whether or not he changes positions.

- 2:10Speaker 1: Be so our lead this hour is from baseball. Now.
- 2:13Speaker 1: I realize there are.
- 2:14Speaker 2: No baseball games to discuss. I get that, but there
- 2:18Speaker 2: are some stories that are interesting. The season begins next week,
- 2:22Speaker 2: the soft launch in Japan, not for the American audience,
- 2:27Speaker 2: for the Japanese audience. But Baseball sold those games. They're
- 2:30Speaker 2: making a killing. I'm hearing from boots on the ground
- 2:34Speaker 2: of Japan. The Dodger merch, the Otani merch.
- 2:38Speaker 1: Is just in sim but they sell it anyway.
- 2:40Speaker 2: But just because the Dodgers are there, They've got special
- 2:43Speaker 2: merchandise anyway. As we wait for opening Day and the
- 2:45Speaker 2: land of the Rising Sun. Some interesting chatter about the
- 2:50Speaker 2: Doyers and their spot atop the totem pole in baseball.
- 2:54Speaker 2: Right now, the reigning champions of baseball predicted to win
- 2:57Speaker 2: the World Series again. So if you didn't hear about this,
- 2:59Speaker 2: and maybe not, The Dodgers president longtime sports executive stand
- 3:04Speaker 2: Casting rejected rejection mo Tumbo. He rejected being labeled baseball's
- 3:13Speaker 2: new evil empire, talking to Hall of Fame Baseball scribe
- 3:17Speaker 2: Jason Stark, stand cast and dismissing the notion that the
- 3:23Speaker 2: Dodgers are the evil empire, saying they're neither evil nor
- 3:27Speaker 2: an empire. Casting followed up by telling Jason Stark that
- 3:32Speaker 2: the odds of the twenty twenty five season suggests a
- 3:36Speaker 2: team other than the Dodgers will win the World Series.
- 3:40Speaker 2: He said, the oddsmakers claim there's a.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Seventy five percent chance that someone other.
- 3:47Speaker 2: Than us, cast and said, meaning the Dodgers will win
- 3:50Speaker 2: the World Series this year. So it's hard to be
- 3:53Speaker 2: that evil or much of an empire if that continues,
- 3:56Speaker 2: all right, so let us discuss the question. Stand Casting,
- 4:01Speaker 2: Baseball executive Dodger executive rejecting the idea that the Dodgers
- 4:07Speaker 2: are the evil Empire of baseball over the Yankees or
- 4:11Speaker 2: the New Yankees, if you will, so give me your
- 4:13Speaker 2: school of thought on this one. So I've got Star Wars, Mayflower,
- 4:20Speaker 2: and Boulevard, and we will combine all of these things
- 4:25Speaker 2: together and we are going to make a Pastrami sandwich,
- 4:30Speaker 2: wonderful sandwich, Top five sandwich Pastami sandwich. So, first of all,
- 4:35Speaker 2: because I understand that Stan Casting is a lifetime sports
- 4:38Speaker 2: executive and that that's how you keep lifetime employment, you go, oh,
- 4:43Speaker 2: I don't want.
- 4:43Speaker 1: To be called evil. I've got to protect the brand. Brand, brand, brand, brand, brand,
- 4:47Speaker 1: bran brand, brand, brand and that thing.
- 4:51Speaker 2: Nevertheless, though, all right, so Stancaster is trying to protect
- 4:54Speaker 2: the brand.
- 4:55Speaker 1: This is a feather in the cap on this side
- 4:58Speaker 1: of the microphone for the It is an honor to
- 5:02Speaker 1: be called the evil Empire. Embrace it. There was this basketball.
- 5:07Speaker 2: Player named Wilt Chamberlain back in the day, and he
- 5:10Speaker 2: was the biggest, baddest guy in the NBA at the
- 5:13Speaker 2: time and scored one hundred points. And he had heard
- 5:15Speaker 2: about him and he once said that nobody loves Goliath.
- 5:19Speaker 1: Right, Well, he was Gallith.
- 5:21Speaker 2: The Dodgers are Goliath paying these dingle berries over twenty
- 5:25Speaker 2: years down the line on layaway payments, Man of genius.
- 5:34Speaker 1: Just wonderful.
- 5:35Speaker 2: So my advice here, my advice to the Dodgers is
- 5:39Speaker 2: to go Star Wars Return of the Jedi.
- 5:43Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? Maybe not? So then
- 5:47Speaker 1: me explained, So the Emperor, if.
- 5:50Speaker 2: You remember the this goes back many years, but it's
- 5:52Speaker 2: a classic move. So the Emperor attempts to persuade Luke
- 5:55Speaker 2: Skywalker remember to join the Dark Side, and he's given
- 5:59Speaker 2: the sales pitch on the Dark Side, and he said,
- 6:02Speaker 2: it's a good way of feelings justified in embracing your
- 6:08Speaker 2: vengeance or something along those lines. Right, You've got a
- 6:11Speaker 2: lot of rage and you can embrace it. So let
- 6:13Speaker 2: the hate flow through you. Was the line, let the
- 6:15Speaker 2: hate flow through you, And that's my face. Ultimately, the
- 6:19Speaker 2: Dodgers the one thing they're missing any think about the
- 6:22Speaker 2: Yankees when they were the Evil Empire.
- 6:24Speaker 1: They had a great arch villain.
- 6:27Speaker 2: The arch villain was George Steinbrenner, who was seen as
- 6:30Speaker 2: the demon spawn, right, George Steinberner the boss and those
- 6:34Speaker 2: kids are soft pathetic the next generation.
- 6:38Speaker 1: But George Steinbrenner was a great villain. He was wonderful.
- 6:42Speaker 2: He was a perfect enemy combatant and inherently sinister, a
- 6:48Speaker 2: mischief maker. And it was either you win a championship
- 6:51Speaker 2: or you're a loser. You get firing managers. He was
- 6:54Speaker 2: just wonderful. Like the Dodgers Dave Roberts. I would have
- 6:58Speaker 2: fired Dave Roberts eight years ago and Dave Roberts, Dave
- 7:02Speaker 2: Roberts is still there. You know, he's doing his thing
- 7:04Speaker 2: and that's that no matter what. And they're fine, and
- 7:08Speaker 2: it seemed like they're generally kind of nice guys, the Dodgers,
- 7:12Speaker 2: and so they don't have a lot of those characteristics.
- 7:15Speaker 2: But I would embrace it because everyone on baseball hates you,
- 7:18Speaker 2: like all the other teams are jealous, like they don't have.
- 7:20Speaker 1: The good players.
- 7:21Speaker 2: You get all the good players, and so you might
- 7:22Speaker 2: as well. It's good for the sport. You need to
- 7:25Speaker 2: have that evil side to it. And if the Dodgers
- 7:29Speaker 2: are that, that's fine. Won the World Series last year,
- 7:32Speaker 2: They're gonna win the World Series this year. And Stan
- 7:35Speaker 2: cast and what he failed to mention is the Dodgers
- 7:37Speaker 2: are the biggest World Series favorite since the team that
- 7:41Speaker 2: was called the evil Empire the Yankees back.
- 7:45Speaker 1: Twenty some years ago, all right.
- 7:47Speaker 2: Now, Secondly to the Tampa Saint Pete area, that is
- 7:50Speaker 2: where the Rays.
- 7:51Speaker 1: That's a baseball team, not a good one. The Tampa Bay.
- 7:54Speaker 2: Rays have abandoned a one point three billion dollar stadium plan.
- 8:02Speaker 2: They've just said bye bye to it in Florida. So
- 8:05Speaker 2: what does that mean? Big picture?
- 8:08Speaker 1: What does that mean?
- 8:09Speaker 2: So it means that the Tampa Bay baseball team is
- 8:13Speaker 2: on the endangered list that the owner also is in
- 8:19Speaker 2: time out Stu Sternberg.
- 8:21Speaker 1: Now we know the rest of the story.
- 8:23Speaker 2: There was a story a couple of days ago that
- 8:24Speaker 2: there was pressure from inside baseball to have Stu Sternberg
- 8:29Speaker 2: sell the Tampa Bay Rays. And now we know he
- 8:32Speaker 2: is really meat loaf. He's dead.
- 8:33Speaker 1: Meat loaf is what he is.
- 8:35Speaker 2: Because from what I understand of this and a'bsoltainly not
- 8:39Speaker 2: there and I'm just reading.
- 8:40Speaker 1: Some details from those that are much closer to the situation.
- 8:44Speaker 2: But as I understand it, the Commissioner rob Manfraud. Rob Manfraud,
- 8:50Speaker 2: the Commissioner of Baseball personally and successfully lobbied these local
- 8:58Speaker 2: politicians to get the eightium bonds approved and all that
- 9:02Speaker 2: He got everything signed off on to set up a
- 9:05Speaker 2: new stadium for the Tampa Bay Race. He cleared the
- 9:08Speaker 2: jungle for a deal, got rid of all the rainforests
- 9:11Speaker 2: and all that to build the ballpark, only to have
- 9:14Speaker 2: the owner of the Tampa Bay Rays flip the bird
- 9:18Speaker 2: and kill the switch.
- 9:20Speaker 1: And that's it is. The switch was killed and then
- 9:23Speaker 1: the deals off. So warm up.
- 9:25Speaker 2: The lesson is to warm up the Mayflower moving vans.
- 9:29Speaker 1: If you're from Baltimore, you know what that means.
- 9:31Speaker 2: So we now move the relocation clock of the Tampa
- 9:36Speaker 2: Bay Rays baseball team from ninety seconds to eighty nine
- 9:39Speaker 2: seconds to midnight.
- 9:40Speaker 1: The closest it has been eight years.
- 9:44Speaker 2: The Rays mentioned Tampa Bay to Nashville. That very much
- 9:50Speaker 2: in play the last time a team left, although they're
- 9:53Speaker 2: not there yet. The formerly Oakland Athletics. You're old enough
- 9:56Speaker 2: to remember when Oakland had the Athletics, and they're moving
- 9:59Speaker 2: the Vegas Vegas was supposed to get an expansion baseball
- 10:02Speaker 2: team Vegas instead getting a team that's kind of like
- 10:06Speaker 2: an expansion team, the Athletics. But they're gonna be in Sacramento.
- 10:09Speaker 2: But they don't want to mention Sacramento. They're embarrassed by Sacramento.
- 10:11Speaker 2: Sacramento is like a booty call. They don't want anyone
- 10:14Speaker 2: to know they're they're with Sacramento, even though they're playing
- 10:16Speaker 2: in Sacramento.
- 10:17Speaker 1: They're kind of embarrassed about it.
- 10:18Speaker 2: So they have shame for Sacramento because they don't want
- 10:20Speaker 2: to say the word Sacramento. So they're just saying they're
- 10:22Speaker 2: the Athletics and they don't want anyone to know that
- 10:25Speaker 2: they're sleeping with Sacramento. It's a big mess, all right. Now,
- 10:27Speaker 2: final fight to Boston Spring training Camp.
- 10:32Speaker 1: Well it's in Florida, obviously.
- 10:34Speaker 2: But after a lot of controversy a couple of weeks ago,
- 10:37Speaker 2: remember the story regarding Raffie Devers and Alex Bregman, the
- 10:43Speaker 2: cheating astro forever a cheating astro, and so Bregman joined
- 10:50Speaker 2: the Red Sox and there was this great debate is
- 10:52Speaker 2: Bregman going to go to second base?
- 10:54Speaker 1: Is Rafaeld Dever is going to become.
- 10:55Speaker 2: The DH and so Devers ruffled a bunch of feathers
- 11:00Speaker 2: as he mentioned he was not interested in changing spots
- 11:04Speaker 2: to accommodate the roster demands of the the manager, Alice Corps.
- 11:09Speaker 2: So now now he's evolved, if you will. Rafaeld Devers
- 11:15Speaker 2: now says that he will do whatever whatever the Red
- 11:19Speaker 2: Sox want him to do regarding third base and designated here.
- 11:23Speaker 1: If they want to move him, that's fine. Do you
- 11:25Speaker 1: believe him?
- 11:27Speaker 2: So I spent a couple of seconds deliberating on this,
- 11:30Speaker 2: and as I was wandering in sashchanging into the.
- 11:33Speaker 1: Studio, I said, you know what I'm gonna do on
- 11:36Speaker 1: this one. I'm gonna get in the car. I'm actually
- 11:38Speaker 1: gonna drive down the boulevard. I'm gonna go on the
- 11:40Speaker 1: boulevard and it's Skeptics Boulevard. The sign says Skeptics Boulevard,
- 11:44Speaker 1: because that's where I'm going. I'm going down Skeptics Boulevard.
- 11:48Speaker 2: It is more likely than not that this is some
- 11:51Speaker 2: scripted reality that someone got to hold the Rafael Devers
- 11:56Speaker 2: and coached him up, if you will, and say here's
- 12:00Speaker 2: probably how you should handle this.
- 12:01Speaker 1: You might want to do this trying to calm the waters.
- 12:04Speaker 2: Now now I suspect that he's not all that happy
- 12:10Speaker 2: with the idea.
- 12:11Speaker 1: Of changing positions. He's just now trying to play the
- 12:15Speaker 1: game and try to calm everyone down and all that.
- 12:20Speaker 2: So this will continue to be a storyline assuming one
- 12:23Speaker 2: of two things happen. The Red Sox sucked that becomes
- 12:27Speaker 2: a story or if Rafael Devers slash Alex Bregman do
- 12:33Speaker 2: not hit and it is deemed that either the cheating
- 12:37Speaker 2: a hole or Rafaeld Devers are not hitting because of
- 12:41Speaker 2: defensive issues, then it becomes a problem. Now if they're
- 12:44Speaker 2: contending and they're playing well and both players are hitting,
- 12:47Speaker 2: the story goes away. It's all about the stumble and
- 12:51Speaker 2: I've fallen and I can't get a clap on, clap
- 12:54Speaker 2: off the clapper. That's what it's all about. That's what
- 12:57Speaker 2: it's all about. This show is all about you and I.

- 15:19Speaker 2: I did vote for him. You need to reach out
- 15:22Speaker 2: to Sarah, who he lost to. So this is the
- 15:25Speaker 2: morning show on our affiliate in Boston, the sports very
- 15:29Speaker 2: popular morning show. They had a some kind of caller
- 15:32Speaker 2: bracket contest. I don't know all the details on it.
- 15:35Speaker 2: Blind Scott was in it, and it apparently did not
- 15:39Speaker 2: go well for blind Scott. Let's get more on this
- 15:42Speaker 2: developing story right now, and let's say, hello, we go
- 15:46Speaker 2: over to blind blind Scott. Blind Scott, can you please
- 15:50Speaker 2: give us the details. Did you actually get smoked in
- 15:53Speaker 2: this contest? Is that correct?
- 15:55Speaker 4: Here's the thing, like I were you listen, like, here's
- 15:58Speaker 4: the thing like I went on for seventeen minutes straight.
- 16:01Speaker 4: I talked for I beat Sarah from Everette. He's a
- 16:04Speaker 4: fifty two year old woman from Everett. I smoked her
- 16:08Speaker 4: so bad. If you go into the podcast, they cut
- 16:11Speaker 4: all the audio off the podcast, it won't they won't
- 16:13Speaker 4: even they won't even replay it. So here's the thing.
- 16:16Speaker 4: They vented me for this contest. They took my information.
- 16:20Speaker 4: They didn't tell me. They told me the context. The
- 16:23Speaker 4: context was like a boxing match against Sarah, like and
- 16:26Speaker 4: I revealed like everything about myself, like to the whole audience.
- 16:30Speaker 4: And I'm like, I just teaed off, like I talked
- 16:32Speaker 4: about stuff that I wouldn't talk about on this show,
- 16:35Speaker 4: Like I don't know, Ben, if I don't you listen, Ben,
- 16:37Speaker 4: you don't you wouldn't let me talk about it?
- 16:39Speaker 1: No, No, I would never. I would never do that.
- 16:42Speaker 2: He touched on like communism or socialism or something like
- 16:45Speaker 2: if you were all over the place, But I, uh yeah,
- 16:48Speaker 2: So do you feel like you you went too far?
- 16:50Speaker 1: Blind Scott? You feel like if you could do it
- 16:51Speaker 1: over you would have I.
- 16:53Speaker 4: Think, yeah, I think maybe I would have Nicky Klay
- 16:57Speaker 4: there like help me with it. But here's the thing,
- 17:00Speaker 4: like they nobody can listen to it. I think I
- 17:04Speaker 4: beat Sarah from everytt the audience. So I just trashed
- 17:07Speaker 4: the audience completely. I knew I didn't have a chance.
- 17:10Speaker 4: So I found out that they wouldn't allow me in
- 17:12Speaker 4: the studio ever, Like I'm never allowed in their studio,
- 17:15Speaker 4: and they're trying to figure me out a little bit.
- 17:18Speaker 4: I need more airtime, like on their show. I need
- 17:20Speaker 4: more airtime on this show. I have a lot of content,
- 17:23Speaker 4: Like I could talk for four hours. I think I
- 17:25Speaker 4: started talking about the UTA Bomber Manifesto maybe and that
- 17:29Speaker 4: was probably a u A bad movie.
- 17:31Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, I think.
- 17:32Speaker 2: I think when you're you're asking people to vote for
- 17:35Speaker 2: you and then calling them all kinds of names, that's
- 17:38Speaker 2: generally not not a great thing.
- 17:40Speaker 4: So you think, like I talked about being a strange
- 17:43Speaker 4: for my family, you think my family might have been
- 17:45Speaker 4: listening and saying like, uh, like I'm a little bit worried,
- 17:48Speaker 4: like what I'm hearing here. You think they're just like, oh, lad,
- 17:51Speaker 4: like there's no contact.
- 17:52Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 17:53Speaker 2: Well my professional advice, there's a term called too much information,
- 17:58Speaker 2: uh tm I, And yeah you were like that, You're
- 18:02Speaker 2: like the post You're like the poster child of too
- 18:04Speaker 2: much information.
- 18:05Speaker 4: You know, I'm saying, I think there's a chance I
- 18:06Speaker 4: could pass you in celebrity. This is because like I
- 18:09Speaker 4: obviously think up a celebrity and I have a lot
- 18:12Speaker 4: to operate. You think like I might succeed this show
- 18:15Speaker 4: in celebrity, and I think I'm on a trajectory right
- 18:19Speaker 4: now where I'm like sore and pretty high out there
- 18:22Speaker 4: in the stratosphere.
- 18:23Speaker 2: Yeah, like, yeah, well you you're doing great. You just
- 18:27Speaker 2: lost a call in radio show contest to a fifty
- 18:31Speaker 2: two year old woman.
- 18:33Speaker 4: Here's the thing, here's the thing. It was very polarizing.
- 18:35Speaker 4: They got so many emails in the station they had
- 18:37Speaker 4: to pull the content completely from the podcast. So like
- 18:42Speaker 4: some people says, I never heard such an on hind
- 18:44Speaker 4: rant for ten minutes, Like so why did you listen
- 18:46Speaker 4: to it for ten minutes long? And nobody can ever
- 18:48Speaker 4: hear it ever again, will never be heard again in
- 18:51Speaker 4: a lot of stuff I wanted to say, I can't.
- 18:54Speaker 4: I don't know what.
- 18:55Speaker 2: I didn't know what else you could have said. You
- 18:57Speaker 2: seem to hit everything. There was no filth her would
- 19:01Speaker 2: you admit there's no filter?
- 19:02Speaker 1: There was no filter. You said everything.
- 19:04Speaker 4: Famous, famous people's names that were brought up, brought up
- 19:07Speaker 4: that are still live, that are politicians in Massachusetts, that
- 19:10Speaker 4: family members could have heard it that might, like yes,
- 19:14Speaker 4: sent their lawyers after public.
- 19:16Speaker 1: I'm guessing that's why the audio was scrubbed. I don't know.
- 19:19Speaker 2: I have nothing to do with that, but usually if
- 19:21Speaker 2: there's a possibility that some money grabbing lawyer could end up.
- 19:27Speaker 4: Coach was what other approach was I supposed to do?
- 19:29Speaker 1: Like, I don't know anything. I don't know anything about
- 19:32Speaker 1: the contest. You told me about it, So.
- 19:33Speaker 4: I now call this guy alcohol. They're going to have
- 19:37Speaker 4: on there and next on Robbie Road. Steve social media influencers.
- 19:41Speaker 4: So I'm a social media influencer. I'm trying to get
- 19:45Speaker 4: fam likes made Fred touch like, I'm trying to like
- 19:49Speaker 4: I'm a stand up comedian. I so Stephen Brody Stevens
- 19:52Speaker 4: used to listen to this show. He was a famous comedian.
- 19:54Speaker 4: If he was alive, I would to ask.
- 19:55Speaker 1: Him for I know he was.
- 19:58Speaker 2: He was very well known in the LA comedy scene
- 20:01Speaker 2: and he died years ago. But he was a big
- 20:03Speaker 2: fan of our show.
- 20:05Speaker 4: As you advice before before you didn't offer advice. So
- 20:09Speaker 4: did you think I was going to crash and burn?
- 20:11Speaker 5: Wow?
- 20:12Speaker 2: You said you were going to be I didn't know
- 20:13Speaker 2: there was a contest and all that. But I would
- 20:15Speaker 2: have told you to maybe leave a few things out
- 20:17Speaker 2: that would have offended some of the voters. Because you
- 20:19Speaker 2: want to you'll attack your opponent, but you don't attack
- 20:23Speaker 2: the people you need to vote for you. That's the
- 20:26Speaker 2: key to politics, right, You got to be nice to
- 20:28Speaker 2: the people you want to vote. Isn't that every politician
- 20:31Speaker 2: promises on a lowerer taxes?
- 20:33Speaker 1: Rightn't make your life better and all?
- 20:34Speaker 2: Instead, your strategy was you're all a bunch of redneck
- 20:38Speaker 2: losers and vote for me.
- 20:40Speaker 4: Yeah, people on both sides don't like me because of that,
- 20:43Speaker 4: and I don't like to be slighted, and I'm unwilling
- 20:46Speaker 4: to compromise. Like, dude, you're you have the worst callers man.
- 20:50Speaker 4: People are telling me, like the past couple hours at
- 20:53Speaker 4: the fort the beginn of the show have sucked so bad.
- 20:54Speaker 4: It's co was really slow, Like people are driving into work,
- 20:58Speaker 4: like trying from seven to eleven. He's almost falling asleep
- 21:01Speaker 4: and driving off the road like I should be.
- 21:05Speaker 2: Go on, hold, let me remember bringing on a great
- 21:07Speaker 2: caller right now. Let's go to Danny DeVito, a great caller.
- 21:10Speaker 2: Everyone knows this name, Danny DeVito from Boston. What's going on?
- 21:15Speaker 6: It's funny you got blind start on it. I actually
- 21:18Speaker 6: listen to that show and I thought he did okay.
- 21:21Speaker 6: I thought he did all right.
- 21:23Speaker 4: On that show.
- 21:23Speaker 6: And the guys liked him, Fret Tuca and how he
- 21:27Speaker 6: liked him, So I thought he did all right. I
- 21:30Speaker 6: you know, I think I think blind Scott, I think
- 21:33Speaker 6: he might know one of my friends out in Boston
- 21:36Speaker 6: there over here. His name is Mock Boba. His cousin
- 21:39Speaker 6: owns Boas.
- 21:42Speaker 1: Is that right?
- 21:43Speaker 6: Yeah? Man, I don't know if you can ask him that,
- 21:46Speaker 6: but I think he.
- 21:46Speaker 1: Uh, he's still on hold, Cooper. Do we hang up
- 21:50Speaker 1: on the Blind Scott?
- 21:52Speaker 4: Yeah, I know all the boat Yeah, I know all
- 21:53Speaker 4: the Bobus. I know Mike Anthony. You know it's right
- 21:57Speaker 4: here because I live in the corner of sheets.
- 21:59Speaker 2: What can't you get get me a deal? Blind Scott?
- 22:01Speaker 2: Every time I go to Boston, I go to bowls,
- 22:02Speaker 2: you can't hook me up.
- 22:03Speaker 4: You mean, you know the people, they're not letting any
- 22:06Speaker 4: money out of that place. It's like you don't have
- 22:08Speaker 4: so many family men that place.
- 22:11Speaker 6: That place is good stuff. Though I was in there
- 22:13Speaker 6: lots of Mock. I was out working on Sunday on
- 22:17Speaker 6: the holiday.
- 22:17Speaker 2: It was good stuff over there, you know, It's wonderful,
- 22:20Speaker 2: and so it's open all night.
- 22:21Speaker 1: Man, it's great.
- 22:23Speaker 4: They have to drive on the sidewalks when they pick
- 22:25Speaker 4: up the trash. Like I'm like walking down the sidewalks
- 22:28Speaker 4: and all of a sudden, the garbage truck is like
- 22:30Speaker 4: entering the sidewalk while I'm on it.
- 22:32Speaker 6: They have to like, oh, there's something tight driving over there.
- 22:35Speaker 6: You know that that area right here, it's real tiny,
- 22:38Speaker 6: real small. It's dight driving over there.
- 22:40Speaker 4: Then they leave all the garbage on the sidewalks.
- 22:42Speaker 1: All right, all right, Scott, stop your complaining.
- 22:44Speaker 2: I mean, you call your local politician now, Danny, I mean,
- 22:46Speaker 2: my god, I mean, there's no room that was not
- 22:49Speaker 2: designed for the modern trash truck that part of town.
- 22:53Speaker 6: No, exactly right, it's the tiny area over there and
- 22:56Speaker 6: all that.
- 22:56Speaker 3: But uh, you know that.
- 22:57Speaker 6: Competition still was still going on ninety five.
- 23:01Speaker 4: Next week there.
- 23:02Speaker 6: They have a couple of contestants on there too.
- 23:04Speaker 4: It's still going on.
- 23:05Speaker 1: All right.
- 23:06Speaker 2: I don't know about it. I just I don't know
- 23:08Speaker 2: anything about it. And I just he told me to
- 23:11Speaker 2: listen to Scott. So I tuned in and I heard
- 23:14Speaker 2: his part when I was I was at the coming
- 23:17Speaker 2: back from the gym or whatever.
- 23:18Speaker 1: But anyway, all right, what you got, Dandy, what do
- 23:21Speaker 1: you I gotta?
- 23:23Speaker 6: I'm calling about Democats Lawrence. I love when an athlete
- 23:26Speaker 6: comes out, you know, Ben, A lot of these athletes,
- 23:29Speaker 6: they don't you know a lot of them. When they,
- 23:31Speaker 6: you know, go on and they talk, it's all fake,
- 23:33Speaker 6: it's all scripted. I love when an athlete comes out
- 23:36Speaker 6: and actually tells it like it is. He was totally
- 23:38Speaker 6: right about Dallas. You're not gonna win nothing with that
- 23:40Speaker 6: owner over there, and you're not gonna win nothing with Prescott.
- 23:44Speaker 1: So yeah, he was.
- 23:46Speaker 2: It is great man, there there is. It's a true serum.
- 23:51Speaker 2: And then the funniest part about it is that Mike.
- 23:54Speaker 2: That's two funny parts. Like Michael Parsons tries to defend
- 23:56Speaker 2: the Cowboys honor and then DeMarcus Lawrence just complete he
- 24:00Speaker 2: buries him right comes back when remember if you spent
- 24:02Speaker 2: less time on Twitter and more time focused on the field,
- 24:04Speaker 2: you'd win.
- 24:05Speaker 1: So that's good.
- 24:06Speaker 2: But then Danny, you had the Cowboy fans many and listen,
- 24:12Speaker 2: we got we're on in Dallas, got cowboy fans that
- 24:14Speaker 2: like the show and they despise Jerry Jones. And yet
- 24:18Speaker 2: they were so upset they were running to defend Jerry
- 24:20Speaker 2: Jones because that's how upset they were at what DeMarcus
- 24:24Speaker 2: Lawrence said. They're like, well, we don't like the we
- 24:26Speaker 2: don't like Jerry either, but you're not allowed to rip him.
- 24:28Speaker 1: You're a seahawk now.
- 24:29Speaker 6: So yeah, exactly right over there, Ben, And as far
- 24:34Speaker 6: as the drawing James goes, I mean, he's twenty forty
- 24:37Speaker 6: one years old, a courtse he's on something. Ben. When
- 24:40Speaker 6: he first came into the league back in three to
- 24:42Speaker 6: oh four, he was hit trying on the lock in.
- 24:45Speaker 6: As you know, they showed some pictures of him and
- 24:47Speaker 6: they always do it every now and then. He was
- 24:49Speaker 6: like fifty pounds of sixty pounds A light up.
- 24:52Speaker 1: Well people do.
- 24:53Speaker 2: Well, people do get bigger, all well, they they You
- 24:57Speaker 2: do get bigger as you get older.
- 24:59Speaker 6: I mean that's just yeah, okay, he was with you
- 25:01Speaker 6: twenty three answer the leaguer.
- 25:04Speaker 2: Hey, I don't know, just in case the very litigious
- 25:08Speaker 2: Lebron James is listening, I don't know if he's doing
- 25:10Speaker 2: anything all I know is in my past. When I've
- 25:14Speaker 2: heard of people that are associated with athletes who are
- 25:17Speaker 2: involved in peds, the trickle down to the athlete generally
- 25:21Speaker 2: not that far away. That's all I know. It's usually
- 25:25Speaker 2: follow follow the dots, and it's said normally you're not wrong.
- 25:28Speaker 2: So yeah, all right, Denny, I gotta go. But thank you,
- 25:34Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, not you. I just have this guy,
- 25:38Speaker 2: the King of Courage, I have to talk to. When
- 25:39Speaker 2: you when you have a chance to talk to the
- 25:41Speaker 2: King of Kurds, you talk to the King of Kurds.
- 25:43Speaker 1: Hello, King of Courage.
- 25:44Speaker 5: Welcome Daniel, beautiful bastard.
- 25:47Speaker 7: I want to park my car, had to have a
- 25:49Speaker 7: yard and go to the bar.
- 25:51Speaker 1: All right there.
- 25:54Speaker 7: Sorry, it was a lot of the Boston callers recently.
- 25:57Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, give me some, Give me some Wisconsin.
- 26:02Speaker 2: What's a cliche Wisconsin dialect?
- 26:06Speaker 1: If you're from Wisconsin.
- 26:08Speaker 7: Sorry, you say sorry for everything? Well, I'm sorry, sorry,
- 26:13Speaker 7: sorry for that?
- 26:15Speaker 4: Op?
- 26:15Speaker 2: Sorry, oh sorry, oops, sorry, okay, but a lot of yeah,
- 26:19Speaker 2: a lot.
- 26:20Speaker 5: Of the Fargo, Minnesota people have taken that.
- 26:22Speaker 7: I respect all the callers though, but I was what, yes,
- 26:28Speaker 7: I do well most of them.
- 26:30Speaker 1: Which one do you hate which callery do you low?
- 26:33Speaker 5: Oh, I don't even.
- 26:36Speaker 7: Think they're on the air, and I can't think of
- 26:38Speaker 7: their name off hand.
- 26:39Speaker 5: I don't want to waste your time.
- 26:42Speaker 1: Well some would, are you? You've already wasted my time?
- 26:45Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely, I'm kidding, all right, all right, what's on
- 26:48Speaker 2: your mind?
- 26:49Speaker 7: I just heard blind Scott, so it made me want
- 26:51Speaker 7: to jump into a check in. He wants to be
- 26:53Speaker 7: like some infamous caller the Battle of the Braille, a
- 26:57Speaker 7: royal rumbo style verbal octagon onere of.
- 27:00Speaker 5: The best dish.
- 27:02Speaker 7: Yeah, meets up with Scott every time.
- 27:05Speaker 5: Nonetheless, I like.
- 27:06Speaker 2: The name Battle of the Braille. That's a good name.
- 27:10Speaker 2: Do you have any advice to Blind Scott? You want
- 27:11Speaker 2: to give him some advice?
- 27:13Speaker 5: He doesn't need any.
- 27:15Speaker 7: We just need people to step up against him.
- 27:17Speaker 5: I think you can handle it. But you know, I
- 27:20Speaker 5: just wanted to get your take.
- 27:21Speaker 7: I can't believe he took a pay cut during COVID because,
- 27:25Speaker 7: as you say, you do the work of God and
- 27:29Speaker 7: you let people escape. And I can't believe he took
- 27:32Speaker 7: a pay cut because you gave people an escape, you guys,
- 27:35Speaker 7: Coop everyone that was working there at the time.
- 27:37Speaker 1: Sure, we had no choice. But but no, well we
- 27:40Speaker 1: everyone had to. But yeah, I hear it.
- 27:42Speaker 5: Also tinfoil hat time Tropicana. Then they have a casino implode,
- 27:49Speaker 5: and now the Tampa Bay Rays couldn't even give away
- 27:51Speaker 5: ALCS tickets and Denny's this Tiger.
- 27:56Speaker 1: Would Tampa are going to be playing in a minor
- 28:00Speaker 1: league ballpark this year.
- 28:03Speaker 7: I think it's Tropicana's fault.
- 28:06Speaker 2: Yes, it's the it's their fault. There was an act
- 28:08Speaker 2: of God and the roof blew off the stadium. That, yeah,
- 28:12Speaker 2: that's it's all related. You're right, all right, go eat
- 28:14Speaker 2: some cheese skirts.
- 28:15Speaker 1: I'm jealous. I can't eat those. I'm going, all right,
- 28:18Speaker 1: I'm jealous. What do you want me to say? King
- 28:21Speaker 1: of Kurds, not not the Prince of.
- 28:26Speaker 2: Kurds, the King of Kurds, which is much different than
- 28:29Speaker 2: the Prince of Kurds.
- 28:31Speaker 1: Ce C for me. What is this about?
- 28:33Speaker 2: Well, Bill Belichick, remember him? Yeah, so I read this.
- 28:37Speaker 2: Bill Belichick, now North Carolina football coach and all that,
- 28:40Speaker 2: and he has instructed all of the University of North
- 28:44Speaker 2: Carolina employees that contact him to ce c his girlfriend
- 28:52Speaker 2: on all emails. So you cannot just write to Bill Belichick.
- 28:57Speaker 2: You have to see see how old is she, like
- 29:00Speaker 2: twenty five or something like that. I don't know, but
- 29:01Speaker 2: you have to see see his young lady friend there,
- 29:04Speaker 2: Jordan Hudson on all emails.
- 29:06Speaker 1: And so he got me thinking like why is this?
- 29:09Speaker 2: And my thought is that Belichick just doesn't want to
- 29:14Speaker 2: deal with the bull crap, and so he figures, Hey,
- 29:17Speaker 2: I can play the old guy card, and I'm gonna
- 29:21Speaker 2: play it from the bottom of the deck. I'm gonna
- 29:23Speaker 2: play the I'm in my seventies. I don't want to
- 29:25Speaker 2: deal with this crap. So I got this younger lady.
- 29:28Speaker 2: I'm gonna have her deal with the bull crap and
- 29:31Speaker 2: I'll just coach because he doesn't. I'm sure he knows
- 29:33Speaker 2: how to use email and all that stuff and whatnot,
- 29:35Speaker 2: but it's not his thing.
- 29:37Speaker 1: It's not from his world growing up.
- 29:39Speaker 2: And so he's gonna let other people, or in this case,
- 29:42Speaker 2: this lady, take care of all the bullcrap emails from
- 29:45Speaker 2: professors complaining about students or whatever.
- 29:47Speaker 1: And that's how they're gonna do it. That's how they're
- 29:49Speaker 1: gonna operate.
- 29:50Speaker 2: 's go back to the phones. We'll say hello to Steven,
- 29:54Speaker 2: who is up next? What's going on, Steven? Welcome?

- 30:44Speaker 2: a cosmic event tonight. I mean, we're off the we're

- 30:49Speaker 4: How everybody's toy bones?
- 30:50Speaker 3: What the hell are you doing?
- 30:52Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 30:53Speaker 4: Okay, man on the run being.
- 30:56Speaker 8: Drading jobs and I take.
- 30:58Speaker 6: Get off the air.
- 31:03Speaker 1: I gotta go. I I can't I mean, what is
- 31:05Speaker 1: going on here? Holy crap? Did you look at the
- 31:07Speaker 1: cosmic No, I don't. I stay in my little studio here.
- 31:12Speaker 1: I don't walk out. It was cool. Yeah, nice, it
- 31:16Speaker 1: was beautiful. You should have gone and looked.
- 31:17Speaker 2: I don't need to look at it because I'm experiencing
- 31:20Speaker 2: it the effects of it right now.
- 31:22Speaker 1: Oh that's too light. Yeah, I mean that's what happens.
- 31:26Speaker 9: I'm gonna go look again.
- 31:27Speaker 1: Once you try to bring You're going to go look
- 31:28Speaker 1: again right now.
- 31:30Speaker 9: Well, when I first got here, I don't believe it's over.
- 31:33Speaker 1: There's no way it can end that fast.
- 31:35Speaker 9: No, it's not a little over an hour.
- 31:39Speaker 2: Let's go to our cosmic expert now, Andrea, and she's
- 31:42Speaker 2: in Berkeley.
- 31:43Speaker 1: She has more in this developing story. Andrea. He's got
- 31:46Speaker 1: the Farmer's Almanac.
- 31:47Speaker 2: She's the astrology lady Virgo and service on Axelo.
- 31:50Speaker 1: Andrea, Hello, how are you?
- 31:53Speaker 2: If I was any better, I'd probably be having a
- 31:56Speaker 2: bunch of whiskey right now after these phone calls.
- 31:58Speaker 1: But anyway, Yes, what's.
- 31:59Speaker 8: On your You know, the full moon brings out how
- 32:02Speaker 8: should we say, the unique energy and personality of your callers.
- 32:08Speaker 2: Yes, yes, there's a different element to the wow that
- 32:12Speaker 2: calls the show.
- 32:13Speaker 8: Yes, good way to put it. And I was just
- 32:16Speaker 8: watching the Warriors game and Steph Curry check it out
- 32:19Speaker 8: right on the cusp of his Pisces birthday. He's born
- 32:21Speaker 8: March fourteen, nineteen eighty eight, and he scored its his
- 32:25Speaker 8: four thousand three pointer.
- 32:28Speaker 4: So that was amazing.
- 32:29Speaker 1: I saw that the war is won. They won vague
- 32:32Speaker 1: over Sacramento.
- 32:33Speaker 2: But it shows you yet again, Andrea, that we love
- 32:37Speaker 2: round numbers. That round numbers, yes, are the most important
- 32:42Speaker 2: numbers of them all. But you would say no one
- 32:44Speaker 2: in NBA history had made three nine ninety nine three
- 32:48Speaker 2: point shots. That's not satisfying. The number four thousand is satisfying, right, and.
- 32:57Speaker 8: Like a milestone energy to it.
- 33:00Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, But it's it's just amusing because it's like, well,
- 33:02Speaker 2: no one's ever made three nine hund ninety I had
- 33:05Speaker 2: three pointers, but once you get to four thousand, I
- 33:08Speaker 2: know they didn't they didn't stop the game.
- 33:09Speaker 1: And some people were upset about that and all. But
- 33:11Speaker 1: they the round number thing.
- 33:14Speaker 2: Now that's supposedly because of evolution, right that they I've
- 33:18Speaker 2: read some studies on this over the years. Interesting that
- 33:21Speaker 2: the obsession with round numbers is based on the fact
- 33:23Speaker 2: that we the ten number system because we have ten
- 33:27Speaker 2: fingers right. Well, yeah, you have the eight fingers and
- 33:29Speaker 2: the two thumbs, which is ten fingers, and they think
- 33:33Speaker 2: that's why so worked up by round numbers.
- 33:37Speaker 8: Interesting. Well, in his birthday, I mean, how about that
- 33:40Speaker 8: for cosmic timing March fourteen, nineteen eighty eight, So that
- 33:45Speaker 8: was like a memorable cusp of his birthday accomplishment. And

- 37:37Speaker 1: There we go, here, we go.
- 37:40Speaker 3: Here, We got to the third degree. This is one
- 37:49Speaker 3: big event.
- 37:50Speaker 1: Gets grilled Superlo.
- 37:52Speaker 9: And a recent appearance on Dan Patrick, former NFL player
- 37:55Speaker 9: turned analyst Lewis Riddick expanded on the idea that NFL
- 37:58Speaker 9: head coaches are worried that they could eventually be supplanted
- 38:01Speaker 9: by Deon Sanders if they draft Dion sun Shador. Now, Ben,
- 38:04Speaker 9: do you think that's playing a factor in Shador's draft stock.
- 38:09Speaker 1: No, but I like it.
- 38:10Speaker 2: I like the idea that that the father Dion's gonna
- 38:13Speaker 2: meddle when these coaches affairs, Like, really, what they're saying
- 38:16Speaker 2: is Shooter Sanders sucks and they can't win with them, right,
- 38:19Speaker 2: Whi's a tactful way of saying, well, he's not that good,
- 38:21Speaker 2: so we're gonna get fired. And then they're gonna bring
- 38:23Speaker 2: Dion in because he's a bigger name. Because if Shuoter
- 38:26Speaker 2: Sanders is good, he shouldn't need Dion Sanders to coach him.
- 38:29Speaker 2: He should be able to play for anybody. So it
- 38:32Speaker 2: is amusing, and you know, I'd like to see Dion
- 38:35Speaker 2: in the NFL for talk radio purposes.
- 38:37Speaker 9: But next, Jimmy Garoppolo signed a one year deal to
- 38:41Speaker 9: stay with the Rams. Now, Jimmy g went on to
- 38:43Speaker 9: say that his decision to stay with the Rams was
- 38:45Speaker 9: more about liking the people in the organization rather than
- 38:48Speaker 9: a lack of other opportunities. Ben, do you think he
- 38:51Speaker 9: could have got a better opportunity elsewhere?
- 38:53Speaker 1: Well, what is your definition of better? Could? Could?
- 38:55Speaker 2: Could Jimmy Garoppolo have gone to like the Cleveland Browns
- 38:59Speaker 2: or some other team that's in a recession and gotten
- 39:02Speaker 2: an opportunity, probably some floundering team. But his only chance
- 39:05Speaker 2: of playing on a good team is if Matthew Stafford
- 39:09Speaker 2: gets hurt and then he takes over.
- 39:10Speaker 1: That's it. So that could happen.
- 39:12Speaker 2: Stafford gets hurt a lot, So that's his chance to
- 39:14Speaker 2: playing a good team.
- 39:15Speaker 1: Next.
- 39:16Speaker 9: It was announced on Wednesday the Viking safety Harrison Smith
- 39:18Speaker 9: would have returned for his fourteenth season with the team.
- 39:21Speaker 9: Ben Harrison's compiled quite the resume in his time in Minnesota.
- 39:24Speaker 9: Do you think it's enough to get in the Hall.
- 39:26Speaker 1: No, He's only been an All Pro one time. That's it.
- 39:30Speaker 2: That's not a Hall of Fame resume. He's played a
- 39:33Speaker 2: long time. Good for him, but not even close to
- 39:36Speaker 2: Hall of Fame status. No way, How did we.
- 39:39Speaker 1: Do you pass? This edition?
- 39:41Speaker 2: That is a wins We can put it on the
- 39:43Speaker 2: boards one again. Lrena, I'm the all time Wins King,
