  Speaker 3: Me.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: So our lead this hour is from the pro bouncy
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Ball World. The finals are over, but a story that
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: upstaged the NBA Finals from the High Speed Sports Wise
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: the chatterbox as Kevin Durant. He's on the move again, boy,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Kevin Durant. We've become Rhodes Scholars at Kevin Durant Trades.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: So if you have not heard, if you were out
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: doing stuff on Sunday, he didn't pay attention. We learned
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: The Phoenix Suns are saying bye bye to the Slim Reaper,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: unloading the aging Kevin Durant to the Rockets for a
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: trade package that includes Jalen Green, Dylan Brooks, the number
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: ten overall pick in this week's draft, and not one,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: not two, not three, not four, but five second round picks.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: So using malarmath, that's an eight for one swap eight
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: for one. Sun's got eight players, well really two and
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: then six other draft players, and the trade will be
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: formally completed when the new league year begins. I always
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: get excited about this, the new league year. That'll be
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Lie sixth. Durant was on stage at something called fanatics Fest,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: where they jack up prices and get fans to pay
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: exorbitant amounts of money for memorabilia in New York, and
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: the trade was announced and Durant gave his immediate reaction.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: He said, being part of the Houston Rockets, I'm looking
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: forward to it, Durant said, crazy, crazy, last couple of weeks,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: but I'm glad it's over with close quote all right,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: so let us discuss the question. Kevin Durant headed out,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: headed out of Arizona and headed to the Rockets. At
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: first glance, what stands out? What stands out? So I've
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: got brat, Instagram and pot luck, and we will combine
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: all of these things together and we are going to
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: put the WHAMMI on the Zami is what we're going
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: to do. So number one, I said number.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: So Kevin Durant has done it yet again.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Bravo to Kevin Durant way to go as he continues
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: to move locations out, foxing authorities yet again, one step
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: ahead of the NBA law. Kevin Durant, the all time
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: master of migration KD. You never know where he's gonna be.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: You don't really want to learn where he is.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Because it's just going to change.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: The slim Reaper, the traveling circus now heading to the
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Lone Star State as he will play for the Rockheats there.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Now since his days in Oklahoma State was in Seattle,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: they moved to Oklahoma City. Since he left there, Durant
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: has been a brat. He's been like a military brat,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: moving to a new base in a different state or
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: a different part of America every three years or less.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: That's not my opinion, it's a fact. Three years in
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Golden State, check, he went to Brooklyn, three years there,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: one of them hurt from his days in Golden State.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Three years in Phoenix, check, so nine years, three and
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: three and three, and now he goes to Houston. The
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: mallor report card the only report card that matters on trades,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: the mal report card. The Roquets get a B, the
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Suns get a C. Not an overwhelming trade not an
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: overwhelming trade. This didn't get me all excited. I was like,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: that's fine. Durant's a name, we know who that is.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: But from a business standpoint, the reason I'm giving the
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Rockets a B is not because I think Durant is
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: in the peak of his superpowers. He's a diminishing asset. However,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: from a business standpoint, it makes sense. Duran is still
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: box office. He's got the fifteen time All Star on
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: his resume, the Great Finals performances with the Golden State Warriors.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: He's got that. So that moves the needle.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: So that from the business side of it, for the
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: casual fan, the dumb fan that buys the tickets, the
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: casual is not really a sports fan. But hey, we
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: got this guy named Durant, let's go buy some tickets. Yeah,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: he'll bring that, he'll bring some eyeballs, he'll be some
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: bring some curiosity to see if it actually works.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: This time.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: He didn't work the last couple of times he put
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: these super teams together in Brooklyn and in Arizona, and
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: so I said, well, maybe this is time will work. Now,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: this will be different, This will be different. And as
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: for Phoenix, like you know, they gave up a thirty
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: seven player. Thirty a guy who's gonna turn thirty seven
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: this year is a declining asset of a player.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: And it's not like they got that much in return.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: And they're mopping the floor essentially in a flood, is
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: what they're doing here. They swung from the heels with Durant.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: They whiffed.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: They didn't get anywhere close to what they thought they
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: were going to be get in we're close to where
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: they thought they were going to be now, Page duo.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: The Kevin Durant tray to the Rockets. The championship of
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: odds on DraftKings next season have gone from plus twelve
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: hundred prior to the trade for Houston to plus seven
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: point fifty. That means now the Rockets, as a direct
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: result of this trade, now have the second best odds
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: to win the championship next season.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: Is this an over reaction?
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Is this an over reaction to the Kevin Durant trade
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: based on the odds on DraftKings? So I'm nodding my head, Yes,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: this is a classic overreaction. Is a defensive move by
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: the books. It's a defensive move because the casuals will
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: see Durrant, and he'll be introduced here, they'll hold up
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: the jersey with his name on it, and then it'll
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: be a lot of chatter on social media about the
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Rant and this, that and the other thing.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: And so you look at that, you say, okay, here
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: we go.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: So people are gonna loss money on Houston to win
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: the championship, so you have to cover that. And this
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: is a proactive move, not a reactive A pro active
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: move by the sportsbooks there to cover themselves just in
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: case lightning hits and catches in the bottle there for
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Kevin Durant and Houston.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: Does anyone expect that to happen? Raise their hands? No,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: I don't see anyone anyone.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Raising their hands. So I don't hold your breath on that.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: And here's why. After a minutes long deliberation on the
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: career of Kevin Durant post Golden State, post Golden State,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Kevin Durant is like an Instagram model, Right, looks a
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: lot better.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: On your smartphone.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Right, It looks really good on the smartphone. And then
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: you take all those filters away and you're like, oh man,
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: I mean it's not that pleasant. You know, it's not bad,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: but it's just not that, not that. There's a lot
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: of stuff going on. There's a lot of deception. There's
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: camera angles, there's makeup, there's clothing option choices like all
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: of that, and the filters.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: So it's like an Instagram model Durant, you know, you
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: put them on there.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: It looks pretty good then, but upon further review, it's like, eh,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: you know, Durant will get some numbers, she'll score some points.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: You can still score.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: And he has proven with Brooklyn, he has proven with
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Phoenix that his ability to build a super team is lacking.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: He's got some kryptonite in that area.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: It is an issue.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: He is not the final piece to the jigsaw puzzle
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: unless the puzzle includes Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Klay
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: Thompson and.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Spoiler alert, spoiler alert, I looked at Houston's roster. They
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: don't have that. So they don't have that.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be electric or explosive or maybe like putting
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: a electronic device in a bathtub.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: Not a good idea.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: We're already hearing about the bromance all what a bromance
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: between Kevin Durant and Eme Udoka that they bonded at
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: some international basketball tournament, the lif I think it was
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: the Olympics, And to that, okay, great, I'm glad they're
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: buddy buddy and all that stuff.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: I'll believe it when I see it.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: And it doesn't matter what they do in the regular season, Durant,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: it will be judged in the playoffs. That's how this works.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: Nobody pays attention to the regular season. It's all about
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: what you do in the playoffs. You have to validate
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: yourself in the postseason. So we will not know until
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: next summer. That's it all right now, final point, So
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: how are things looking in the Phoenix part of the equation?
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: How are things looking in Phoenix? With the hall the
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Sun's got for Kevin Durant eight for one, eight for one.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: So I would not call it a hall. Let's start
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: with that. I would not call it a hall.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: That is being delusional and overly optimistic to say it's
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: a hall. It This is more of a pot luck
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: dinner type situation.
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: You got some deviled eggs over here with the suns.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: You got some of that.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: You got a little broccoli salad. Nobody likes brocoli salad,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: but somebody brought broccoli salad with the pot luck. So
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: you've got some broccoli salad over here, and then you've
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: got some chicken cash roll over on this side, and
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: then you've got some and cheese, and that's all kind
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: of in the middle. It's a quantity play, not a
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: quality play. And Jalen Green was the star of the trade.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: He just was the star of the trade. He's a high,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: very athletic, high scoring guard. He led the rockheats and
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: scoring last season he had to be traded. He rode
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: the vomit comet to the next level, to the moon
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: and beyond. In that playoff series when he had one
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: if I remember, he had one really good game and
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: the rest of the time it was like less than
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: ten points. He was gun shy, he froze. They had
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: to trade him. He bought himself a trade. Now they
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: ended up getting to rant for him. Jalen Green could
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: not come back. He was That was absolute malfeasance by
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: Jalen Green in the playoffs.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: He went a wall.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: Guilty of going to a wall. They had to get
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: rid of him. And three years into his NBA care effort,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: a lot of Chad Well that's a great player or whatever,
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: I mean, the son's got his super good player.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: Here was the second pick in the draft.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: But if you look the numbers here, the Basketball Reference
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: comps on Jalen Green, his career at this point is
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: similar to Tim Hardaway Junior, not the old man, Tim
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: Hardaway Junior, Rodney mcgrugor whoever that is, and Quincy Pondexter.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: So that's it.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: Now you know Dylan Brooks, Now he's a glue guy.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: Dylan Brooks is a glue guy. He's a pass He's
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: an instigator from his days in Memphis. His nickname Dylan
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: the Villain, so he lives up to that. And those
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: guys are nice when you're really about to win a championship,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: you think you're about to win and you get a
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: player like that. And we expect Phoenix to regift Dylan
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: Brooks and possibly even Green. They're gonna have to get.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: They got a gree to Bradley Beal. The guard situation
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: is a mess. Bradley Beal's got a no trade clause.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: They got to find a way to unload Bradley Beal
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: to convince him to be traded. So Devin Booker will
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: be there with more empty stats for the Sons, and
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: then you got Dylan Brooks and he could be traded.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: But the Green's the other one Green, Devin Brooks, Booker
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: and then also the guard Bradley Beal who put up
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: numbers for the Wizards back in the day. Now, as
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: for Kevin Durant Leaving, the argument is this is addition
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: by subtraction. It just didn't work out and all this stuff,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: And it is true that the Durant experiment. You don't
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: fault the Suns for going for it the experiment, though
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: in hindsight we didn't say this at the time, but
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: in hindsight it didn't feel like it was gonna work.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: But in hindsight it was doomed from the very beginning.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: The super team that had the chemistry of like a
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: wet sock and a toaster, it just did not It
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: just didn't work, and it sounded good Devin Booker and
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: Bradley Beal as players that could score a lot of
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: points alongside Durant. Durant would open things up for brad
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: the Beal to shoot three point shots and for Devin
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Booker to slash the basket. And then it turned out
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: that they formed a band with three solo artists right,
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: three solo artists, and they tried to play a symphony
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: and it just would not work.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: The notes did not work. The only thing they.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: Orchestrated in two seasons was a single first round playoff elimination.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: They didn't even make the playoffs. This pass sason.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: You know how hard it is to not make the
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: playoffs In the NBA, they try to get every team in.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: They had that.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Fugasey playing thing, which is like half the playoffs. The
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Suns were so bad they couldn't even get in the postseason.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: So they made it to one postseason, they were swept
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: in four games. Didn't even qualify this past year, and
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: so now they're going a different direction. They hired some
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: no name guy as the coach, and so that's where
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: we are. It is the Ben Malor Show. You want
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: to comment on any of that or the Thunder the
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: first championship in OKC history. As they take down the
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: team from Indiana, the Pacers go snap, crackle pop with

  Speaker 2: Hot take validation.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: As we began this hour with the Kevin Durant trade
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: as he goes from Phoenix to Houston in an eight
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: for one trade chip and the q's right since says
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: eight plus in the mall monologue. I'm happy my Rockets
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: got kad. I only wish he was a little younger.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: Don't we all wish we were a little younger. Houston
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: better win the title next season. If they do so,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: it'll all be worth it. If they do not, at
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: least it will bring the national attention they have lacked.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: Jeremy writes in he says, I don't see Durant playing
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: well with Thompson and Shngoon. Also, the Rockets bench isn't great.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: They could have used those draft picks to beef up
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: the bench. Don't worry about the bench. Don't worry about
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: about the bench. If the top players are great, you
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: can go very very far in the NBA mister Irrigations
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: demanding that we take his call in the last hour.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: That is very unlikely that will happen, Chris Wrights and
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: says Ben, I have to admit. This Kdie deal to
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: the rock Cats smells a whole lot like the Team
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Act deal in All four. Yeah, I remember that. There
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: was a lot of excitement. Oh it's Tracy McGrady. The
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Rockets are on their way. Didn't work out. The Rockets
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: have done this a lot though, because in the previous
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: generation they got Scottie Pippen and Charles Barkley and that
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: didn't work.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: That was a disaster.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: Uh, So they've picked up the player at the end
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: of the career. There, They've done that quite a bit.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: Let's go to the phones and uh do we have here.

• 18:46
  Speaker 1: tarnish on Oklahoma Cities Championship as the Star of the
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Pacers goes down to a popped Achilles. Hello Andrea, Well Hello,
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: if I was any better, I'd be a Halliburn but
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: not Tyrese Haliburton, because he's got a long road back
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: from that injury.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: Yes, you know. In fact, before I forget, I want

• 19:24
  Speaker 3: dates and the full moon.
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: Okay, all the important.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: I see, because oh there it is, I see it
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: right here. Okay.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: Yes, I get a lot of email from blind Scott,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: so sometimes I don't even bother checking the email because
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: it's all from blind Scott. But so that I please,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: I say, right here, Summer Solstice Planetary. And then it's
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: got the whole thing right there in front.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: So yes, all right, very nice, Well thank you.
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: No, I know you're a busy man, so read it
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: at your leisure and let me know if you have
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: any questions. And yeah, time's flying by with the Summer Solstice,
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: and we had the basketball playoffs and this is quite interesting.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: Speaking of time, Halliburton is in Leapier. Baby. Here's one
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: February twenty nine, two thousand that's cool. Yeah, and check
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: it out.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: So that means he's only how many it was like
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: every four years, four years old or someone good for him.
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, isn't that interesting. I did a little research and leapier.
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: I mean, I've had some clients went on leap year.
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: It's pretty unusual. But apparently it's every four years that
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: you celebrate your birthday if you of it. Here to
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: the leap year.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: Theory, I think was you just add more days to
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: the year. Let's just add more days and then no.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: Well there's still age one year every nine year. But
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: you know, I think it was interesting. He's February twenty nine,
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: two thousand. He's a Pisces and Mars is in Virgo
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: and transiting Mars in Virgo. Mars's energy assertion aggression. Mars
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: was opposing his son, which is very injury prone and
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: kind of washing the limits. Yeah, so you know, less
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: is more when Mari it's opposed to your son. But obviously,
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: you know, he did what he felt he needed to do.
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: But that's a really difficult transit to see that Mare's transit,
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: and it was just devastating and it impacted, you know,
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: the whole league and change the Pacers.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Well it sucked for Game seven because he was he
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: was hitting shots.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: It was a close game.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Leon, it was the first quarter of the game, and
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: you're like, all right, we're going to have a good game.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: It'll be a fourth quarter game.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: And right a twenty five year old superstar.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: So, uh right, well, hold on, I see it coming
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: up July fourth, Is that correct? I'm looking here at
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: the newsletter because I you did send it me. Neptune
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: in retrograde? Is that correct? July fourth? We have that
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: coming up here?
• 21:48
  Speaker 7: Yes?
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I also summer.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: I got that from the Summer Solstice Planetary newsletter sent
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: out the astrology newsletter, the Summer Solstice edition from Andrey.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: Right there, it says right in there, page one.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: I believe it is.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: Yes, I talked about the full moons and new Moon's
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: page two, page two bat by me.
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: When planet's retrograde, it's good to tune into that. Neptune,
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: for example, is spirituality, but it can also be confusion.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: So July fourth, you might be you know, people might
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: be busy traveling or doing things like that, so uh,
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: just be mindful about Neptune. Oh. Actually, what I'd write
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: here The Yankees met Subway series on July fourth.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: Oh, okay, there'll be some crazy stuff going on there, exactly.

  Speaker 8: Hey, but you know, I was listening to one of
• 23:46
  Speaker 8: your one of your proteges on on your network talking
• 23:49

• 23:57
  Speaker 8: who could just sing and play the piano and still even.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: Now what you know, the what do you think a

  Speaker 1: woman who's known for shaking her her backs? You think
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: she's come on, you know the answer to that? Come on, now,
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: what are you doing?
• 24:13
  Speaker 8: I would just look at her brag about it, you
• 24:15
  Speaker 8: know what I'm thinking. I don't think so would get

  Speaker 8: to be that a.
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: Well, but she's gonna have so much money she who cares.
• 24:22

  Speaker 1: until she's forty five.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: Or whatever, and then she's out see you later.
• 24:32
  Speaker 8: Just as long as she pays her taxes because she
• 24:35

• 24:43
  Speaker 8: You got and you know you were talking about the
• 24:45
  Speaker 8: suns and the trade and all that, But my favorite
• 24:49
  Speaker 8: suns to it was the Espia guy that was having
• 24:52
  Speaker 8: the affair with the soboy Cunningham.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: Uh No, it was a different I think I think
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: it was somebody. I don't think it was the owner.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: It was somebody like a high ranking executive man. Well,
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: first of all, you don't know whether that's true or not.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: That's number one.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: Number two. I thought it was a different executive, so
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: you might be wrong. Why are you so convinced you're right.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: You're in Charleston, South Carolina, You're a million miles away
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: from Arizona. But yet you're convinced you're right because you
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: read it on the internet somewhere. You're convinced that a
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: the story is correct, and B you have all the
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: parts of the story accurate.
• 25:29
  Speaker 8: Come on, look here, you're talt. You the guy that
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: was arguingly about Dave Roberts last year.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: And I told you listen, I fired Dave Roberts fifteen times.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: I fired Dave Roberts. I got rid of Dave Roberts.
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Get rid of him, fire and bring back Lasorda and
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: put him in there. I know he's dead put Lasorda
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: in there anyway, I don't care. LSDA would be better
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: with his team.
• 25:51
  Speaker 8: And by the way, I knew all along that g Bus.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you know everything.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: You never say You never said that prior to the
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: you never said yeah, you call it a million times.

  Speaker 1: You never said that. Jerome, you're after the fat guy.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: You got all the answers after the fact, all the answers.

• 28:24

  Speaker 6: Could have been wishing to you a happy Father's Day
• 28:56
  Speaker 6: all these years. It's all I kind of saying.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: That's all I mean, It's it's all good.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: You know. Listen, there's some creepsers out there that listen
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: to the show. And they create a situation where I
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: couldn't talk about that for a while.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: But that's fine, and you know, we moved on.
• 29:09
  Speaker 7: I mean, yeah, you are an on air douchebag, but
• 29:14
  Speaker 7: you are a great guy. Well thanks, like that is
• 29:17
  Speaker 7: amazing for you to do. And I'm I get some
• 29:21
  Speaker 7: ball washing there.
• 29:22
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna make it quick. But that was a great
• 29:24
  Speaker 6: story and I loved hearing it.
• 29:25
  Speaker 8: Man.
• 29:26
  Speaker 6: Well really, I mean, I mean, I got I got
• 29:28
  Speaker 6: a fun myself. He's thirteen, yeah, blah blah, But I mean,
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: good for you for doing that.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: I hope your son goes on does amazing, amazing things,
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: Jaybon and your kid's going to do amazing things in
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: the world right Well.
• 29:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he's a big video gamer right now, and he
• 29:42
  Speaker 6: wants to be a YouTuber.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: So yeah, that's the thing that all the kids want
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: to be YouTubers.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: That's a while.
• 29:48
  Speaker 6: I don't know if that's going to work out.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: You know, how many people make money on YouTube compared
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: to the amount of people that think they're going to
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: make money on YouTube, The math is not particularly great.
• 29:57
  Speaker 6: Well, all about that that kid that just review toys
• 30:00
  Speaker 6: and his parents filmed them and he was like the
• 30:03
  Speaker 6: highest groceres YouTuber forever like I know, but.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: At some point that at some point that at some
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: point the kids no longer a cute kid and grows
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: up and nobody wants to watch them open toys.
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: That's the problem.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: So the way if if you want to make money, tho,
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: if you want to make money on YouTube, my theory
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: is to figure out bot accounts and just artificially increase
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: the view account and then you'll make a lot of money.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: I think it's illegal, but if you can figure it out,
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of money.
• 30:27
  Speaker 8: To be made.
• 30:27
  Speaker 6: They're suggesting me to do something illegal.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, you shouldn't do it, but if you
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: figure out a way to do it, you make a
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: lot of to do it.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Tell you to do it. You want to be dumb
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: and do it.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you did it, you'd probably make a
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: lot of money if you can get away with it,

  Speaker 5: We got that to the third degree.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: Here we go. Think that gets grilled Google.
• 37:34
  Speaker 9: It was reported over the weekend that Jalen Ramsey would
• 37:36
  Speaker 9: prefer to be traded to the West Coast, specifically either
• 37:38
  Speaker 9: the Chargers or the Rams. Then would you want Ramsey
• 37:42
  Speaker 9: back on the Rams or is he a falling star?
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: All right, So first of all, I don't I'm not
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: like dying to get Jaylen. If the Rams get him,
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. But he's thirty years old. He's
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: thirty years old, and you know how I feel. I
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: think he turns thirty thirty one early in the NFL season,
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: So he's at that point where he's at the very
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: end of his athletic prime, if he's not already past
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: his athletic prime. So, like I know, he's a veteran.
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: He's not a falling star yet, but he's teetering on
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: the brink of being.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: A falling star.
• 38:10
  Speaker 9: Next, Robert sala is back with the forty nine Ers,
• 38:14
  Speaker 9: and with his return, George Kittle has a.
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: Warning for the rest of the league. Oh I got
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: to hear this. He said, violence is coming.
• 38:19
  Speaker 9: Really, yes, Ben, Do you think Sala's return will make
• 38:22
  Speaker 9: a noticeable impact in Santa Clara?
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: Well, the only thing about Robert sala is you could
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: not watch a Niner game with this guy was the
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: Shenanigans when he was the defensive coordinator before the smooching
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: that took place from broadcasters desperately trying to get him
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: a head coaching job. Was so over the top, like
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: the TV guys Robert Selzer, all the jumping up and
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: down the South ultimatelytional players. As we learned when Robert
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: Salad coached the Jets and had suck players, he was
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: suddenly a suck coach. So the Niners have some decent players,
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: not as many good ones as they had before. They'll
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: be okay, But it's not that I'm not expecting a
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: master class by Robert Salad.
• 39:02
  Speaker 9: Next, the Tampa Bay Rays won two out of three
• 39:04
  Speaker 9: games in their series against the AL leading Tigers, and
• 39:07
  Speaker 9: they did so in blowout fashion. But do you think
• 39:09
  Speaker 9: the Rays are legitimate contenders in the American League?
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: Well?
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: Are they regular season contenders? Yes, it's like a freak show, Coop.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: Though it's like a freak show with the race. I
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: don't consider them a legitimate playoff contender.
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: During the regular season. Yeah, it works during the regular season.
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: How do we know you pass? That's a whit put
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: on the board. I won the game, mister again.
• 39:27
