- 1:30Speaker 3: hopefully to be back for year number three next year.
- 1:33Speaker 3: A number of you have asked about that, and so
- 1:36Speaker 3: we will. We'll let you know. I don't know the plans.
- 1:39Speaker 3: I'll talk to the NBC people when we get done.
- 1:42Speaker 3: But Super Bowl Sunday. So excited, and you know, Danny,
- 1:49Speaker 3: I've done a lot of intermitute fasting. I don't eat
- 1:51Speaker 3: very much. I eat one meal a day. But today
- 1:54Speaker 3: is Today is what I call rare and appropriate. I'm
- 1:57Speaker 3: gonna go old fat Ben. I'm gonna go big as
- 2:00Speaker 3: big as I can go. I've got it all planned out.
- 2:03Speaker 3: I'm gonna eat about as poorly. I'm gonna probably lose
- 2:05Speaker 3: two days of my life today the food I'm gonna eat,
- 2:08Speaker 3: but I cannot wait.
- 2:09Speaker 4: Then.
- 2:10Speaker 5: It's all people do is they keep going back right.
- 2:14Speaker 5: Hopefully you don't change plates every time. I hate when
- 2:16Speaker 5: people do that at Super Bowl parties, Like every time
- 2:19Speaker 5: they get a new appetizer, they take a brand new plate,
- 2:22Speaker 5: and so there's napkins and plates all over and everything's
- 2:26Speaker 5: messy and loud and it's one of the reasons Ben,
- 2:28Speaker 5: and we've talked about this on Radio row here this
- 2:31Speaker 5: past week. Do you prefer a quiet setting where you
- 2:34Speaker 5: can actually focus on the super Bowl or do you
- 2:37Speaker 5: want to socialize and hear people's chit chat because it
- 2:41Speaker 5: bothers me when people are talking during the super Bowl.
- 2:44Speaker 1: Yeah. So over the years, I've been to super Bowl parties.
- 2:47Speaker 3: As you know, I'm inward thinking I'm an introvert, so
- 2:51Speaker 3: I talk about that quite a bit. And so I
- 2:53Speaker 3: do like to wrap myself in a game. And the
- 2:56Speaker 3: other problem I have is I'm on after the game,
- 2:59Speaker 3: we have the overnight show, so I feel like I
- 3:02Speaker 3: have to kind of pay attention to the broadcast. So
- 3:05Speaker 3: I don't I don't enjoy the party, the party part
- 3:10Speaker 3: of it, and so.
- 3:11Speaker 1: Yeah, I need to like Foe.
- 3:13Speaker 5: And the other thing I forgot I was asking a
- 3:15Speaker 5: guy who's anti social.
- 3:16Speaker 4: I forgot about that.
- 3:17Speaker 1: Well exactly, I mean I don't mind. I mean my
- 3:19Speaker 1: wife Frags need a certain things and we'll go to parties.
- 3:22Speaker 1: I mean, she her people at her work. They love
- 3:24Speaker 1: the party.
- 3:25Speaker 3: So I practice social distancing, whether it's COVID or not.
- 3:29Speaker 3: But yeah, so but anyway, no, I mean I would.
- 3:32Speaker 4: Rese officers they know how to party.
- 3:35Speaker 3: Yeah, they definitely know how to part. I mean there're
- 3:37Speaker 3: no shrinking violence.
- 3:38Speaker 5: Over the Oh yeah, the dude they take all the
- 3:40Speaker 5: drugs out of the evidence room.
- 3:42Speaker 3: I don't know about that, but they we we at
- 3:44Speaker 3: our party. I know you weren't there, Dani's and uh,
- 3:46Speaker 3: but we had. They showed up in a party bus
- 3:49Speaker 3: because you know, they want to drink and drive, so
- 3:50Speaker 3: they rented out a party bus and we were having.
- 3:54Speaker 3: The party was like a normal ugly sweater party. We
- 3:56Speaker 3: talked about it on this party is. But then like
- 3:58Speaker 3: like all of a sudden, midway through, this bus shows
- 4:01Speaker 3: up and like thirty people got out of the bus
- 4:04Speaker 3: and all of a sudden, the party like double.
- 4:07Speaker 1: I was crazy.
- 4:08Speaker 3: But no, I want to watch the game and kind
- 4:10Speaker 3: of get into it. And I what I do is
- 4:12Speaker 3: I have my routine. So I watched the game.
- 4:14Speaker 1: You're all creatures a habit.
- 4:16Speaker 3: So I'm watching the game and I have the the
- 4:18Speaker 3: on my phone. I'm futzing around with my phone. I
- 4:20Speaker 3: have the notes app thing. You know that notes thing
- 4:22Speaker 3: on your phone of course, yeah, so I have that,
- 4:25Speaker 3: and then I I'll jot down like little little notes
- 4:29Speaker 3: during the game and then I'll kind of put those
- 4:31Speaker 3: together at the end.
- 4:32Speaker 4: And talking points.
- 4:33Speaker 5: So you actually could build a company for your time
- 4:36Speaker 5: watching the Super Bowl because you're working.
- 4:39Speaker 3: Yeah, and then when I build a company, they will
- 4:41Speaker 3: they will laugh at me and tell me to go
- 4:44Speaker 3: pound sand that is what they will tell me.
- 4:46Speaker 1: But yeah, I could. I could do that.
- 4:49Speaker 3: But it is you talk about these matchups and everything,
- 4:51Speaker 3: and we did a lot of that on the TV show.
- 4:54Speaker 1: Benny Versus the Penny.
- 4:55Speaker 3: But like Mahomes, the aura around Mahomes right now, and
- 4:59Speaker 3: he has lost Super Bowl. He did lose to Tampa Bay,
- 5:02Speaker 3: and even in the other Super Bowls it's not like
- 5:05Speaker 3: the Chiefs dominated and one going away where the game
- 5:08Speaker 3: wasn't even close. So the game will probably because but
- 5:11Speaker 3: Mahomes is he's got an eight hundred winning percentage as
- 5:16Speaker 3: a starter. He's sixteen and zero indoors, He's seventeen and
- 5:20Speaker 3: three in the playoffs.
- 5:21Speaker 1: Straight up. I mean the numbers are just insane, absolutely
- 5:24Speaker 1: insane with Mahomes.
- 5:26Speaker 4: Uh.
- 5:26Speaker 3: And yet you know, I don't know who you're picking,
- 5:28Speaker 3: Danny and all that I picked.
- 5:32Speaker 5: You did you just bleep me Danny, you I did,
- 5:36Speaker 5: because we're not giving our picks until the very end
- 5:38Speaker 5: of the show.
- 5:40Speaker 3: All right, well, hey, listen, you jumped to any kind
- 5:43Speaker 3: of numbers. We have the mail bag, though, so I
- 5:45Speaker 3: think we should probably get to the mail bag.
- 5:47Speaker 4: It's this.
- 6:02Speaker 3: Super Bowl Sunday, and this is the ultimate litmus test

- 8:17Speaker 1: Who likes analytics day, but it's like analytics is.
- 8:19Speaker 5: And what I would say to answer that letter that
- 8:21Speaker 5: was emailed in even though you're not a female, obviously,

- 8:28Speaker 5: that product.

- 8:32Speaker 1: men sexist Yeah, well maybe yeah.
- 8:37Speaker 3: Hey, twenty five minutes, that's back in, all right. The
- 8:41Speaker 3: next email is from Dale in Charleston. Now, Dale's the
- 8:45Speaker 3: guy that put together the Malard meet and greet we
- 8:48Speaker 3: did in South Carolina, which was awesome.
- 8:51Speaker 1: I'm so grateful for Dale.
- 8:53Speaker 3: He's from southern California, but he's lived in South Carolina,
- 8:57Speaker 3: the free state of South Carolina with less taxes and
- 9:00Speaker 3: all that.
- 9:01Speaker 4: Uh.
- 9:01Speaker 3: And Dale says, uh, Bennie, Uh, he was very kind.
- 9:05Speaker 3: He talked about you know, he's kind of what's going
- 9:08Speaker 3: on with him and the weather in Charleston where they
- 9:12Speaker 3: got a little snow where he is. But Dale says,
- 9:14Speaker 3: who put together the great you know, he's the guy
- 9:17Speaker 3: who put the great mall of meat.
- 9:18Speaker 1: And he says uh, he heard a co worker here
- 9:20Speaker 1: we go.
- 9:20Speaker 3: He said, he heard a coworker use the word rigamo roar,
- 9:24Speaker 3: and I'm not sure exactly what it means. I thought
- 9:27Speaker 3: it would be perfect for the word of the week. Now,
- 9:30Speaker 3: we did not do a word of the week this week,
- 9:32Speaker 3: so I would like to make this the word.
- 9:33Speaker 4: Of the week. Like sales should be the super word
- 9:37Speaker 4: of the week.
- 9:37Speaker 3: Then the super word of the week, the super word
- 9:42Speaker 3: of the week rigamoor.
- 9:45Speaker 1: So it's r I.
- 9:47Speaker 4: G M A R O l E. You say it
- 9:51Speaker 4: like you're sneezing's.
- 9:53Speaker 3: Put a little flair on it. I put a little
- 9:56Speaker 3: How do you say it? What do you say? I
- 9:59Speaker 3: don't know say that word?
- 10:00Speaker 1: That's you don't never say rigamarole? No, no, all right anyway.
- 10:04Speaker 4: Especially the way you say it.
- 10:06Speaker 3: Well, it's uh. The term it goes back. The origin
- 10:10Speaker 3: is ragman role the hell is that? So apparently this
- 10:15Speaker 3: is a it refers to a long list or a
- 10:18Speaker 3: legal document, and that word actually goes back to the
- 10:22Speaker 3: thirteenth century England and Scotland. So the word it's long
- 10:29Speaker 3: it means now in more modern times it's kind of
- 10:32Speaker 3: like long rambling.
- 10:34Speaker 5: Coherent to the left of me right now, is your
- 10:37Speaker 5: boy Gronk? So Gronk is of a TV camera doing
- 10:40Speaker 5: the rigamarole.
- 10:42Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go, Tell Gronk to come over. We'll
- 10:45Speaker 1: kiss his ass.
- 10:46Speaker 3: I remember he was at the Premiere Networks building years
- 10:48Speaker 3: ago when he was playing for the Patriots, and he
- 10:50Speaker 3: showed up on a party bus because he was working
- 10:53Speaker 3: on some reality show, is kind of like the off season.
- 10:56Speaker 3: And there was this Mercedes Benz like party bus and
- 11:01Speaker 3: he was there with a bunch of other people and
- 11:03Speaker 3: he came up. I don't know what show he was on.
- 11:05Speaker 3: I don't think he was on Fox Sports Radio, but
- 11:08Speaker 3: he popped in there. But anyway, rook, he said, what's.
- 11:11Speaker 4: Up to you? Yeah? He just waved to the stage here.
- 11:13Speaker 1: Got a wave as he kept walking.
- 11:15Speaker 4: And how many people he just flipped off the fifth
- 11:18Speaker 4: Hour right now?
- 11:19Speaker 1: Not there?
- 11:20Speaker 4: That was nice.
- 11:21Speaker 3: Well, Kelsey's a better tight end, So tell him that
- 11:24Speaker 3: we'd like Travis Kelsey better. What's next on the mail bag?
- 11:28Speaker 3: It's the fifth hour Super Bowl show? This is the
- 11:30Speaker 3: mail bag? Obviously, what do we have? Steven Minnesota rightes in,
- 11:36Speaker 3: He says, Ben and Danny. I enjoyed the podcast. I
- 11:38Speaker 3: thought this would be perfect for your show.
- 11:42Speaker 1: He then sent a story.
- 11:43Speaker 3: This is from the President of Columbia who says cocaine
- 11:48Speaker 3: is no worse than whiskey and would be sold like
- 11:53Speaker 3: wine if legalized worldwide.
- 11:56Speaker 5: It's very true. That's what my dad said right when
- 11:58Speaker 5: my mom was divorcing him.
- 12:00Speaker 3: Yeah, just get you know, So you go down and
- 12:03Speaker 3: would there be Now here's the question, Danny. I know
- 12:05Speaker 3: in northern California and in Santa Barbara and San Diego
- 12:08Speaker 3: there's like wine tasting. Would you go to cocaine tasting
- 12:12Speaker 3: where you could snort the different coke?
- 12:14Speaker 1: Would that be? You know, Post Valley somewhere.
- 12:17Speaker 5: I've always my entire life, and I don't know where
- 12:20Speaker 5: this started, but my sinuses are always a pain in
- 12:23Speaker 5: the ass. I always have pseuda fed like hidden into
- 12:25Speaker 5: my backpack. I do not understand people who snort things
- 12:29Speaker 5: into their nostrils. I would not go to a cocaine
- 12:33Speaker 5: tasting table.
- 12:35Speaker 3: Well, if you want to know, Steve, in Minnesota, there
- 12:37Speaker 3: is actually a place where you can go in sample cocaine.
- 12:40Speaker 1: It's called the Hollywood Hills or Beverly Hills.
- 12:43Speaker 3: So anywhere in La there on a any night, not
- 12:47Speaker 3: just Friday or Saturday. I'm sure there'll be some wild parties,
- 12:51Speaker 3: but no parties from Diddy. So those parties are but
- 12:53Speaker 3: I'm sure there's some other wild parties today.
- 12:56Speaker 4: Oh me.
- 12:57Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 12:57Speaker 3: Now we've got the weed legal, Danny, do you think
- 13:00Speaker 3: in our lifetimes, I don't know how many years we
- 13:02Speaker 3: have left, do you think we'll see cocaine legalists.
- 13:04Speaker 1: I'm gonna go no on the cocaine. I don't think
- 13:06Speaker 1: we'll see that legal No.
- 13:07Speaker 5: This generation has gotten lazier than the past generation, not
- 13:12Speaker 5: more amped up like their eighty stock traders. So no,
- 13:16Speaker 5: if anything, we're going to have, you know, four day
- 13:19Speaker 5: work weeks. We're not going to be cocaine induced, working
- 13:22Speaker 5: officially six days a week.
- 13:24Speaker 4: A bunch of hookers and cocaine.
- 13:27Speaker 1: All right.
- 13:27Speaker 3: Next up, Ryan, Ryan C. From Shrewsbury, mass all right.
- 13:32Speaker 3: Sitting on the mail bag, he says, Hey, Bndon Danny.
- 13:34Speaker 3: Last week I emailed you guys talking about my nineteen
- 13:38Speaker 3: thirty three Ford Model A. Remember that the photo I
- 13:41Speaker 3: sent you.
- 13:41Speaker 4: Danny, Yeah, that's right. That was a good look at
- 13:43Speaker 4: a classic car.
- 13:45Speaker 1: Got in his garage. He says, you guys talked about
- 13:47Speaker 1: how hard it is to get old. Parts.
- 13:49Speaker 3: I did some quick Malor research and turns out Ryan says,
- 13:54Speaker 3: the closest I can find to me in Shrewsbury is
- 13:58Speaker 3: in Maryland's. He also found a place in San Dimas, California.
- 14:04Speaker 3: He says, my question this week, have you ever been
- 14:07Speaker 3: to San Dimas? And if you have, can you pick
- 14:10Speaker 3: me up a fuel pump?
- 14:11Speaker 1: He says, just kidding. There you go, Love, that's.
- 14:14Speaker 4: Home to Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.
- 14:17Speaker 3: Well, I actually lived The old Malor mansion was right
- 14:21Speaker 3: next to that in a town called Glendora, and I
- 14:24Speaker 3: lived there, and San Dimas is right next to it.
- 14:28Speaker 3: I used to go to the Costco in San Dimas.
- 14:32Speaker 3: That was my spot. And yeah, but Bill, you know,
- 14:36Speaker 3: fun fact, Daddy, fun fact. In fact, so Bill and
- 14:39Speaker 3: Ted's Excellent Adventure, while it was based on San Dimas,
- 14:43Speaker 3: was actually filmed in Phoenix.
- 14:46Speaker 1: They didn't film it in San Dimas. It was actually
- 14:48Speaker 1: filmed in Arizona.
- 14:49Speaker 4: I feel like my whole life has been a lie.
- 14:51Speaker 1: It's a fraud. Right.
- 14:53Speaker 3: There's also a great I don't remember the name of it.
- 14:57Speaker 3: There's a great park where I used to feed the
- 14:59Speaker 3: ducks in San Dimas.
- 15:01Speaker 1: I don't remember the name of it.
- 15:03Speaker 3: But that was my spot, although you had to pay
- 15:05Speaker 3: for parking. But what I would do is I would
- 15:07Speaker 3: go like an hour before they closed, and they never
- 15:10Speaker 3: charged for parking. So I just go for like an
- 15:11Speaker 3: hour and that beat the ducks, and that would be
- 15:14Speaker 3: my move.
- 15:15Speaker 4: Nick says, here really quick, it says.
- 15:17Speaker 5: San Dimas is known for its Western art, small town feel,
- 15:21Speaker 5: and equestrian qualities.
- 15:24Speaker 1: Yeah, they do have. There are some horse trails around
- 15:27Speaker 1: San Dimas.
- 15:28Speaker 3: There's also a great dollar tree there, really nice dollar tree.
- 15:33Speaker 4: Skill for beautiful horse trails to a dollar tree.
- 15:36Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you can take a great dollar tree there. Yeah.
- 15:39Speaker 3: Those some nice houses looking out at the San Gabriel
- 15:43Speaker 3: Valley there, Nick and Wisconsin rights and says Benny the
- 15:45Speaker 3: BOPPERA and Danny g. Been a while since I've checked in,
- 15:48Speaker 3: but I'm always listening to the Fifth Hour podcast.
- 15:51Speaker 1: Now, last time I mentioned, I purchased a home.
- 15:54Speaker 3: So my question is this, would you rather save a
- 16:00Speaker 3: little bit of money and do a project yourself or
- 16:03Speaker 3: pay more and not worry about it. I'm sick of
- 16:07Speaker 3: doing this shit myself, says Nick in Wisconsin. Yeah, well
- 16:14Speaker 3: it's always a cost benefit thing. I'll let you answer
- 16:17Speaker 3: in a second. If it's always a cost benefit thing,
- 16:19Speaker 3: it's how valuable is your time? I've always and this
- 16:23Speaker 3: is something that I've learned. I didn't know this when
- 16:25Speaker 3: I was a kid. When I was a kid, I
- 16:28Speaker 3: you know, you think you have endless time. And as
- 16:31Speaker 3: I've gotten older, I've learned that the most valuable commodity
- 16:38Speaker 3: that we have, or the most valuable thing that we have,
- 16:42Speaker 3: I guess is the way to say it.
- 16:45Speaker 1: Is time, right. I mean that we don't know how
- 16:47Speaker 1: much we have.
- 16:48Speaker 3: You can't buy more of it when it's gone, and
- 16:50Speaker 3: all that stuff, and you know we waste a lot
- 16:53Speaker 3: of it, and so you have to weigh a can
- 16:57Speaker 3: you afford to hire somebody to do it? And and
- 17:02Speaker 3: then buh, can you can you do it easy enough
- 17:07Speaker 3: without having to hire someone? Is it if it's gonna
- 17:10Speaker 3: take a long time? I think the crazy thing now
- 17:12Speaker 3: is everything's on YouTube. Like I'm really into cooking right now,
- 17:16Speaker 3: and I've been trying to We're not eating out anymore.
- 17:18Speaker 1: We're eating at home all the time, and so.
- 17:20Speaker 3: We're cooking everything, me and the wife, and so we're
- 17:22Speaker 3: trying to find the perfect crisp friese homemade French fries,
- 17:27Speaker 3: or as I call them, Danny freedom friese. And so
- 17:30Speaker 3: I've been trying all these YouTube cooking recipes to try.
- 17:34Speaker 4: To from China.
- 17:36Speaker 3: Yeah, I've been trying to I've been trying to find
- 17:38Speaker 3: the perfect fry recipe, and I've been trying different things
- 17:42Speaker 3: and all that.
- 17:43Speaker 1: But it's I enjoy it. It doesn't. It's it's not.
- 17:45Speaker 3: I feel like it's not a waste of my time,
- 17:47Speaker 3: but it is when when you take time away from
- 17:52Speaker 3: something that is the most valuable thing that you have.
- 17:55Speaker 1: It's the most precious things. So you have to weigh that.
- 17:57Speaker 3: But if you're can afford to hire somebody, I would
- 17:59Speaker 3: do it. But if it's easy enough you can just
- 18:02Speaker 3: do it watching a fifteen minute YouTube video, then I would.
- 18:05Speaker 1: Go that through it. So what about you, Danny.
- 18:06Speaker 4: I agree with you on the time thing. Man.
- 18:09Speaker 5: I wasted forty five minutes of my life the other
- 18:13Speaker 5: night because I made the mistake of actually it was
- 18:16Speaker 5: the first night that we were here last Sunday, so
- 18:20Speaker 5: exactly a week ago. I made the mistake Benny, of
- 18:23Speaker 5: going in to a Popeyes famously started here in the
- 18:27Speaker 5: state of Louisiana right before I went in there. I
- 18:32Speaker 5: was in CVS, by the way, and guess which Chiefs
- 18:36Speaker 5: defensive player was in the same aisle as me at CVS.
- 18:41Speaker 4: And then I'll tell you what he was buying.
- 18:43Speaker 1: Is his last name start with A jay?
- 18:45Speaker 4: Is that? Yeah? How'd you do that? Yeah?
- 18:48Speaker 1: I don't know, psychic, I use my crystal ball.
- 18:52Speaker 3: Chris Jones was He's a star, the headliner on the defense.
- 18:57Speaker 5: Recognized him immediately because the camera lately has and right
- 19:00Speaker 5: up on him as he cries on the sideline pregame
- 19:04Speaker 5: and post game because he's he was emotional about getting
- 19:07Speaker 5: back to the super Bowl. So I recognized him immediately,
- 19:12Speaker 5: and I was like, no way, they just landed a
- 19:14Speaker 5: few hours ago.
- 19:14Speaker 4: And then it made sense.
- 19:15Speaker 5: I was on Canal Street and so it wasn't far
- 19:18Speaker 5: from the hotel that the Chiefs are staying at. So
- 19:21Speaker 5: I struck up a little conversation with him. Really nice dude,
- 19:25Speaker 5: until he found out I was a Raiders fan. So
- 19:28Speaker 5: I leave the CVS and I got the thing I needed. He,
- 19:32Speaker 5: by the way, was in the section looking at brushes.
- 19:35Speaker 5: He needed a hair brush. He forgot to pack it.
- 19:38Speaker 3: Yeah, all those incidentals, Yeah, so they make a lot
- 19:40Speaker 3: of money at those little drug stores near hotels, and
- 19:43Speaker 3: because of the incidentals.
- 19:44Speaker 5: Yeah exactly, Yeah, that crap. You forget to pack at
- 19:48Speaker 5: the last minute. So and he's got to look fly
- 19:51Speaker 5: for you know, for the cameras and everything. Sure, I
- 19:54Speaker 5: walk across the street into this Popeyes, ben what a
- 19:58Speaker 5: freaking disaster. I'll try to tell it. In sixty seconds.
- 20:02Speaker 5: There are those rental scooters thrown and tossed in the
- 20:05Speaker 5: middle of the Popeyes. There are people just all over
- 20:08Speaker 5: the inside of this place and screaming at the manager
- 20:12Speaker 5: at the front counter. There's new Kiosks in there, so
- 20:15Speaker 5: everything is a mess. Nobody could get their order. I
- 20:18Speaker 5: had already paid. I stood there and waited, and it
- 20:21Speaker 5: was sweltering hot inside this Popeyes, by the way, and
- 20:25Speaker 5: it was a disaster. Trash all over the floor. The
- 20:28Speaker 5: employees were rude. It took forty five minutes to get
- 20:31Speaker 5: one damn chicken sandwich that I could bring back to
- 20:34Speaker 5: the hotel.
- 20:36Speaker 3: Dude, it sounded it sounded like you were. It sounded
- 20:39Speaker 3: like you were near MacArthur Park.
- 20:40Speaker 5: In la is what it sounded exactly, And you're right,
- 20:43Speaker 5: when those are the instances where when you go through it,
- 20:47Speaker 5: you think to yourself, I just wasted an hour of
- 20:50Speaker 5: my life.
- 20:51Speaker 4: I am never going to get that back.
- 20:53Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it sucks. And then you know, time goes
- 20:57Speaker 3: so fast. It's as you get older. But random guy
- 21:00Speaker 3: writes in he says, I can't really talk because I'm
- 21:04Speaker 3: a walking pharmaceutical experiment. But Danny g should not be
- 21:08Speaker 3: eating all those snacks. He's going to have a hard
- 21:12Speaker 3: What what do you last week? I guess you were
- 21:16Speaker 3: talking about snacks or whatever.
- 21:17Speaker 1: I don't I don't know.
- 21:18Speaker 5: I don't remember what snacks I was talking about. Normally,
- 21:21Speaker 5: the snacks that my wife and I have are healthier snacks.
- 21:26Speaker 5: We have like that skinny pop popcorn, snack on almonds
- 21:31Speaker 5: like you do.
- 21:32Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a big almond guy. I do. Yeah. I
- 21:35Speaker 1: rotate nuts.
- 21:36Speaker 3: I've got cashews, I've got peanuts, I've got yeah, yeah,
- 21:42Speaker 3: I rotate nuts, sunflower seeds, and the one thing I've
- 21:49Speaker 3: I've really gotten into lately, Danny's yogurt. I don't even
- 21:52Speaker 3: like yogurt, but it helps your digestive process.
- 21:54Speaker 1: Eating a little yoga. It's good, you know your gut.
- 21:57Speaker 5: At Costco, you could get a bag of the big
- 21:59Speaker 5: vanilla granola and we get that and we put that
- 22:03Speaker 5: on top of Greek yogurt a little bit with a
- 22:06Speaker 5: little drizzle of honey.
- 22:07Speaker 1: Oh, I gotta get some of that. That's a good idea.
- 22:10Speaker 5: Yeah, bro, And don't judge me for my snacks. All right,
- 22:12Speaker 5: I am down to a lean to seventy.
- 22:17Speaker 1: You're like Luca here here the size of life.
- 22:21Speaker 4: We established that on yesterday's podcast.
- 22:23Speaker 3: That's right, Marcus from Bruce Pville. Eddie writes in he
- 22:28Speaker 3: sent now he sent us a video on Snapchat Danny
- 22:31Speaker 3: and I can't you can't see this and I clicked
- 22:34Speaker 3: on it. I couldn't see this, says hopefully you can
- 22:35Speaker 3: see the video. But these were my son's first steps
- 22:38Speaker 3: at the moment eight months ago. He says, Yeah, he
- 22:41Speaker 3: and his son loved listening to the podcast over the weekend.
- 22:45Speaker 3: And I love everything you guys are doing. I appreciate
- 22:48Speaker 3: you guys. Amazing podcast. And also I don't remember the
- 22:52Speaker 3: exact subject, but it sounds like it.
- 22:53Speaker 4: Was a good one.
- 22:54Speaker 3: Okay, So he just wanted us to say his name,
- 22:57Speaker 3: So that's Marcus. Thank you for listening to the podcast.
- 23:01Speaker 4: And Marcus, you are great at that thing.
- 23:03Speaker 5: You do because we know all about you and the
- 23:06Speaker 5: things that make you. You know who you are, Yeah,
- 23:11Speaker 5: which means we know nothing about you either.
- 23:14Speaker 3: Jerry writes in he says, Hey, Ben and Danny, I
- 23:17Speaker 3: enjoy the podcast.
- 23:18Speaker 1: I'm still waiting for Animal Thunderdome.
- 23:23Speaker 4: A follow up on this, Klay Travis is here.
- 23:26Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I'll let you finish the question.
- 23:30Speaker 1: Well, I mean you can go. Because he had he
- 23:31Speaker 1: sent a couple of animal stories he wanted to be okay,
- 23:34Speaker 1: all right.
- 23:34Speaker 3: I mean he said these would be good for Thunderdome,
- 23:36Speaker 3: and I don't even know if they would be good
- 23:37Speaker 3: for Thunderdome. One of them is a Russian The Russian
- 23:42Speaker 3: Ministry of Defense is deploying donkeys to the front lines
- 23:45Speaker 3: of the battle in Ukraine.
- 23:47Speaker 1: I don't know if that counts as animal Thunderdome.
- 23:49Speaker 3: And the local government, Oh, this is actually kind of funny.
- 23:53Speaker 3: In the Czech Republic, they'd spent seven years. Well, this
- 23:57Speaker 3: sounds like something that happens in California. They spent seven
- 24:00Speaker 3: trying to come up with a plan to build a dam,
- 24:03Speaker 3: and Beaver's built the dam in two days and saved
- 24:05Speaker 3: them one million dollars.
- 24:07Speaker 1: How great is that?
- 24:09Speaker 3: That's wonderful, right, Yeah, so you ran into Clay. How's
- 24:11Speaker 3: our old morning guy doing? Klay Travis has replacing Rush
- 24:14Speaker 3: Limbaugh as the top political talk show host in America
- 24:18Speaker 3: at iHeart.
- 24:20Speaker 4: Yeah, he's doing good.
- 24:21Speaker 5: I saw him a few nights back at Colin Cowherd's
- 24:24Speaker 5: volume party, and you know, I didn't press him on
- 24:28Speaker 5: Animal Thunderdome, but he we did talk about a couple
- 24:31Speaker 5: of the animal stories that he's texted me recently. And
- 24:35Speaker 5: every time he texts one of those stories, I'm like,
- 24:37Speaker 5: what do I do archive this for our children? I mean,
- 24:40Speaker 5: unless we start the podcast, there's no sense in sending
- 24:43Speaker 5: me these stories. But yeah, he's doing good. And right
- 24:46Speaker 5: across the way from us. All the way across from us,
- 24:49Speaker 5: you could see a big out Kick stage. Now it's
- 24:51Speaker 5: got pillars and everything.
- 24:53Speaker 4: Oh nice.
- 24:54Speaker 5: You know, it's not to the level of the Fox
- 24:55Speaker 5: Sports Radio stage, but almost. It's a I would say,
- 24:58Speaker 5: if the fs OUR stage here is a ten out
- 25:02Speaker 5: of ten, his.
- 25:02Speaker 4: Is like a six out of ten. Well I have
- 25:05Speaker 4: done is coming up in the world.
- 25:07Speaker 3: I have done a guest spot on OutKick. They had
- 25:10Speaker 3: me on as a guest a couple of times during
- 25:12Speaker 3: the summer. I'm a great guest during the summer because
- 25:15Speaker 3: there's you know, they're trying to kill time on all
- 25:17Speaker 3: these shows I was on. I didn't mention this on
- 25:20Speaker 3: the I don't know why didn't mention this with almost
- 25:22Speaker 3: Andy Reid or Yesterday with You. But on Monday, I
- 25:26Speaker 3: made the rare and appropriate appearance on the number one
- 25:32Speaker 3: morning show in Boston as a guest on the Sports
- 25:36Speaker 3: Hub in Boston, which is Morning Drive, a prime time
- 25:42Speaker 3: and the guys that do the morning show in the
- 25:44Speaker 3: Sports Hub that my show is the Overnight Show is
- 25:47Speaker 3: carried on the Sports Hub, and they're listening.
- 25:50Speaker 1: They listened to the show.
- 25:51Speaker 3: A lot of the morning guys listen on their way
- 25:53Speaker 3: into work, and they're fans of the Overnight Show, which
- 25:56Speaker 3: was great because they apparently hate every other morning show.
- 26:00Speaker 1: They were ripping like my competitor at at Odyssey.
- 26:05Speaker 3: They were ripping our old overnight guy that used to
- 26:08Speaker 3: work at our place, and so it was. It was
- 26:12Speaker 3: pretty cool and even better than that, a lot of
- 26:14Speaker 3: my people that work on Benny Versus The Penny. I
- 26:17Speaker 3: did not tell anyone I was going to be on there.
- 26:19Speaker 3: I think I mentioned it briefly on my overnight show.
- 26:21Speaker 3: But a bunch of people that I did not tell
- 26:25Speaker 3: were sending me text messages because they just randomly happened
- 26:28Speaker 3: to hear that, which was, Yeah, that's pretty cool.
- 26:31Speaker 1: When in that show, does I mean they you talk
- 26:34Speaker 1: about ratings?
- 26:35Speaker 3: That show is absolutely insane, the amount of listeners they get.
- 26:42Speaker 1: And you know Boston.
- 26:43Speaker 3: Sports Radio who absolutely next level. But Fred Toucher in
- 26:49Speaker 3: the morning Toucher and Hardy, I believe, I think that's
- 26:52Speaker 3: the name of the show, Toucher and Hardy. They're on
- 26:55Speaker 3: underwear and he's like an old DJ guy who became
- 26:59Speaker 3: a sports guy.
- 27:00Speaker 1: You know, one of those guys the best. Yeah, one
- 27:03Speaker 1: of those those dudes.
- 27:07Speaker 3: Al Frights and we'll get out on this alf Frights
- 27:09Speaker 3: And he says, Ben, out of all the talent that
- 27:12Speaker 3: you've worked with throughout your career at FSR, who has
- 27:15Speaker 3: been the most excited to participate in the game show bits?
- 27:19Speaker 3: And who's the biggest curmudgeon when they're picked? Also, aside
- 27:24Speaker 3: from Bergie feeding, Karen Kay answers, have there been any
- 27:27Speaker 3: other major game show scandals on the show?
- 27:29Speaker 5: Well, yeah, I mean I don't want to real Yeah,
- 27:31Speaker 5: when Jonas saw you cheating on your computer.
- 27:33Speaker 1: That's a lot.
- 27:33Speaker 3: Jonas made that up because he tried to take the
- 27:35Speaker 3: Overnight show. But yeah, he failed to lie to take
- 27:38Speaker 3: their test. But but no, I mean Eddie was Eddie.
- 27:41Speaker 3: Eddie was caught cheating.
- 27:42Speaker 5: Also, they were feeding Eddie answers he was.
- 27:46Speaker 1: I hate to say that because I love Eddie.
- 27:48Speaker 4: Stop. Now.
- 27:50Speaker 3: As far as the biggest curmudgeons, am I allowed to
- 27:55Speaker 3: name names here? I don't know a lot. There were
- 27:57Speaker 3: some some guys I don't know. I feel like Ilo
- 28:01Speaker 3: never wants to participate.
- 28:02Speaker 1: When he's on.
- 28:03Speaker 5: I heard bo guests produced your show one time and
- 28:05Speaker 5: he wanted to play all the games.
- 28:07Speaker 3: Uh yeah, both show It's It's here and miss alf Uh.
- 28:14Speaker 3: There are some like Manzi has been great, but now
- 28:17Speaker 3: because they the company whacked Eddie and we don't have
- 28:20Speaker 3: updates anymore, there's no one there. So it's not we
- 28:23Speaker 3: would we would have different people in that chair.
- 28:26Speaker 4: How does the mallards amount of money even work now?
- 28:29Speaker 3: Well, it's got to be me and Coop because Lorraina,
- 28:31Speaker 3: I mean, we love Loraino. Man, she doesn't have the
- 28:34Speaker 3: sports team, so yeah, it has it has hurt, you know,
- 28:37Speaker 3: the rotation for the game shows, and uh, you know,
- 28:39Speaker 3: hopefully the company will come around at some point here.
- 28:42Speaker 4: Uh, clearly the yeah, bring Edie Beck, bring Edie Beck.
- 28:48Speaker 1: We love Eddie to come back.
- 28:49Speaker 3: But yeah, so we it's just me and Coop and
- 28:52Speaker 3: then Lorraina does password and you can obviously do that
- 28:56Speaker 3: and ask Ben and those kind of bits and all.
- 28:59Speaker 4: But I mean that, I mean the mail bag.
- 29:02Speaker 1: No, no, that's this is different. No, no, no, it's
- 29:04Speaker 1: not part of this. This is different.
- 29:06Speaker 3: All right, now it's time for the big Super Bowl pick.
- 29:08Speaker 3: We got to get out of here. We got you
- 29:12Speaker 3: got a plane to catch. All right, here we go.
- 29:17Speaker 5: But alright, Ben, I already know you're going Kansas City
- 29:20Speaker 5: because you're such a homer for that city.
- 29:22Speaker 1: Now I'm not a homer.
- 29:24Speaker 3: I would not pick Kansas City because they have the
- 29:26Speaker 3: Ben Malli I go on every week with my guy,
- 29:32Speaker 3: the morning Guy, Bob Festal.
- 29:34Speaker 1: I would never do that at all.
- 29:35Speaker 3: But Kansas City will plant the flag is a Chiefs
- 29:40Speaker 3: three pete Kansas City pat Riley will get making a
- 29:44Speaker 3: million bucks because the Chiefs are the Kings of the NFL.
- 29:50Speaker 3: They will win this game by a touchdown. By a touchdown,
- 29:54Speaker 3: Kansas City win.
- 29:55Speaker 4: Now, what's the final score?
- 29:58Speaker 3: The final score, Danny will thirty one to twenty four,
- 30:03Speaker 3: thirty one Kansas City And now a man who's a
- 30:08Speaker 3: lifelong Raider fan, Raider, red, Raider born, and when he dies,
- 30:12Speaker 3: he'll be Raider dead.
- 30:13Speaker 5: Danny, Well, he's not Iowa Sam today. He's Philly Sam.
- 30:19Speaker 5: He's Philly Sammy, or Cheesecake Sammy, cheese steak Sammy.
- 30:26Speaker 4: And you called me cheesecake. We know no one's ever
- 30:29Speaker 4: called you that.
- 30:31Speaker 5: But he's gonna agree with me on this pickpin because
- 30:34Speaker 5: I've seen a vision of Saquon tearing through my new
- 30:39Speaker 5: friend Chris Jones and that Kansas City defense. But not
- 30:43Speaker 5: just that, I feel like the Eagles defense is going
- 30:47Speaker 5: to be the key to this game and keeping Mahomes
- 30:49Speaker 5: at bay enough to win the game, keeping him on
- 30:52Speaker 5: the sidelines just enough, and controlling the clock. I saw
- 30:56Speaker 5: this score right away in my head. Twenty seven to
- 30:58Speaker 5: twenty four. The Chiefs get some help by the refs
- 31:02Speaker 5: to try to tie it at the end, but they
- 31:04Speaker 5: miss a field goal and the Eagles win this game
- 31:08Speaker 5: twenty seven to twenty four.
- 31:10Speaker 4: Eagles.
- 31:12Speaker 3: Well, unfortunately, Danny, you live in a parallel dimension. That's
- 31:16Speaker 3: not the dimension that I'm in. And I see Barkley's
- 31:21Speaker 3: gonna eat too much birthday cake before h No, he's
- 31:24Speaker 3: gonna have He's gonna be a little sluggish, right, little plotting.
- 31:28Speaker 3: And I'm old enough to remember that this Philadelphia Eagle
- 31:33Speaker 3: team played a soft West Coast LA Ram team in
- 31:37Speaker 3: snow in Philadelphia, and the Rams had the ball driving
- 31:42Speaker 3: down the field, the chance to win the game in
- 31:44Speaker 3: the final seconds. Now, if you give the Chiefs the
- 31:47Speaker 3: ball in the final seconds with Pat Mahomes, you think
- 31:50Speaker 3: they make the play that Stafford didn't make.
- 31:53Speaker 1: I say yes.
- 31:54Speaker 3: And even with even with Barkley running for two hundred
- 31:58Speaker 3: and fifty yards in that game, the Rams still had
- 32:00Speaker 3: a chance to win the game. There's no way on
- 32:03Speaker 3: God's green Earth that Barkley's gonna run for two hundred
- 32:05Speaker 3: and fifty yards today against kan Say if he if
- 32:08Speaker 3: he runs for two hundred and fifty yards, Danny, I
- 32:11Speaker 3: will walk to Philadelphia. Okay, I will walk to Philadelphia
- 32:15Speaker 3: if Bard runs.
- 32:18Speaker 4: Our company will not let you do this for insurance reason.
- 32:21Speaker 3: So no, No, that was the old That was the
- 32:23Speaker 3: old man. That that's the old management. What do you
- 32:26Speaker 3: want me?
- 32:28Speaker 5: You Scott Shapiro wants you walk in the streets and
- 32:32Speaker 5: wants your dad.
- 32:33Speaker 4: That might be the case. Actually he might.
- 32:34Speaker 1: Actually I'll save the company some money. Why not?
- 32:37Speaker 3: All right, we'll get out on that. Thank you Danny
- 32:40Speaker 3: for sticking around. I know you got a plane to
- 32:42Speaker 3: catch you get it back to LA We'll we'll be
- 32:45Speaker 3: on next week again as well.
- 32:46Speaker 5: Stay in here for the big game. I'm gonna go
- 32:48Speaker 5: down on the field with Donald Trump.
- 32:50Speaker 1: You and President Trump said, I'm part of.
- 32:52Speaker 4: His security detail.
- 32:54Speaker 3: All right, I'm sure that. I can't believe he's the
- 32:56Speaker 3: first president. How is that possible president went to.
- 33:00Speaker 4: A super Bowl?
- 33:00Speaker 5: Oh, it doesn't make any sense. We're none of these
