• 1:09
  Speaker 2: six percent of the Netflix possible audience and it's the
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: worst ratings in a generation. Is this major minor or
• 1:18

• 5:43

  Speaker 2: And we will have that coming up a little bit
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: later on. So great job by everybody from the Religious
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Revival Andrew in Bakersfield that started the Mallard Palooza all
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: the way till Hip Hop mars Sell from Brooklyn. It
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: was a wonderful, wonderful night. Are lead this hour though,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: is from not far away from Marcel in Brooklyn. The Metropolitans.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: That's a baseball team, not a good one. They kicked
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: off the post All Stars stretch with a win over
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: the Fighting Fills in the beginning of the second half. Now,
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: but I love about this is, you know, the game Baseball.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: The marketing geniuses, the same marketing geniuses that for some
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: reason thought Will Ferrell should pop up with the home
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: run derby for no reason, and they needed eight thousand
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: distractions at the All Star Game. These geniuses said, you know,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: we're going to have a showcase game because there's nothing
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: the men, women and children of American sport fandom need.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: Then to watch the Mets in an island game, and
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: this was an island game.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: It's just hilarious. They complete.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: It's like when they schedule Monday Night Football, Thursday Night football,
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: you know, before the year, and they don't early in
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: the other on flex and then you get a dog
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: food game. You get a dog food game like week
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: six or seven.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: It's just terrible.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: This is the Phillies aren't bad. The Mets are terrible Mets,
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: so they one who cares. The better story, though, is
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: at the flea market. And if you were following that
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: or not, maybe not. We've learned that the Metropolitans are
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: reportedly willing they are willing to listen to trade offers
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: for Francisco Lindor However, there's a catch. You gotta read
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: the five print the Manusha only if another team is
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: prepared to meet an extraordinarily high as kicking price for
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: their shortstop. Now, the big catch is also the contract.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: It's a humdinger of a contract for Lindor. He's owed
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: a significant amount of money over the.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Long haul and.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: The Komodo dragon in the room. Lindor also possesses a
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: full no trade clause, which means full trade, no trade protection.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: He's a ten to five and all that. He's the
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: no trade thing, but meaning that he would have to
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: approve any deal himself, he'd have to sign off on it.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: So that is a good jumping off point. Let us
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: discuss the question, what are the chances that Francisco Lindor
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: gets traded.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: By the match?
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: The deadline's coming up here in early August, as we
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: sit here in the middle of July. So my thoughts,
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: I've got sweet Baby Rays, barbecue sauce, One Percenter, and
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Dean Martin and those are three things that have never
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: been combined together. But we're gonna do that, and we're
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: gonna make a dirty water dog. A dirty water dog
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: is what we're gonna make. Right now, when you ask
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: a question, what are the chances that Lindor gets traded,
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: we have to fire up the Mallard trade o meter.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: The Malor trade.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: O meter has been activated. We're gonna set the malarodds
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: on this at plus three seventy five.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Now, that implies a.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Twenty one percent chance, all right percent chance, which, oh,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: by the way, that too ten chance is also the
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: it just as a quinkie dink it's Lindor's current abysmal
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: batting average for the match to ten, So twenty one percent.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: He's got the three musketeers working against him, bad attitude,
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: bloated contract, and he's at the tail end of his prime.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: Good afternoon, good evening, and good night the vibe right
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: now from Lindor. He's the co worker who's got a
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: lot to say, a lot of complaints at the office
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: about meetings. However, never seems to show up prepared. There's
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: always something a little off with Lindor. Now another question,
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: who would even consider a deal for Francisco Lindor at
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: this particular point. So, using the time tested process of
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: elimination a number of teams to get rid of one
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: of the teams.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: That you would normally get rid of. You wouldn't in
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: this case.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: And I I circled, and I did this on my
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: notes app, but I circled Cleveland.
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: Well, no way.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the Guardians are a bunch of tightwads. I get
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: that a Lindor played there b the Guardians. If they
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: can get the Mets to eat some cash, big if
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: that's his original team. He was a star, his coming
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: of age story was in Cleveland as a star player
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: in baseball. And their competitive American league is wide open.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: There's no great team in the American League. They are
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: very conservative. It's rather embarrassing. They're named after a bridge
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: because of you Wokesters, and so a reunion would provide
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: a nice boost for the team formerly known as the
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Cleveland Indians. Then there are the Blue Jays, all disappointing season.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: They clearly have needs. They lost Bulbushett, they didn't really
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: replace him, and so there's some needs on the infield
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: and they would like to have a nice shiny upgrade
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: at shortstop there. I am told in Toronto, how about
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: the Yankees? Now that would have little razzle dazzle. And
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: if the Mets are convinced, lind Door blows send him
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: over to the Bronx crosstown rivalry, right, send him on
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: the Cross Bronx Expressway. Send him over there, massive buzz.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: We all know Anthony Volpi has been flat out bad.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: How bad is he? He's so bad. He was at
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: the game when I threw out the first pitch of
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: the Wusox game, playing for Scranton Wilkesbury in Triple A.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: That's how bad he is. And then you've got the Diamondbacks.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: They love swallowing bad contracts, although they don't. How about
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: Nolan Aronauto They picked him up. He's average, he stinks.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: So anyway, there's options. And by the way, let me
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: point out Ken Rosenthal baseball insider. Remember a couple weeks
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: ago he said he did not believe the Mike Francessa
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: inspired trade rumors about Francisco Lindoor because, in the wisdom
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: of Rosenthal, it didn't come from the beat writers in quotes.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: I guess now it's in place. So the Pope was right.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: Francesa was right, I surmised Francessa. He's buddies with a
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: lot of rich people in New York, who Wall Street types,
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: who hang out with other Wall Street types.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: The guy that owns the Mets as a Wall Street type,
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: so it's more.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: Likely than not he's got pretty good sourcing when he's
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: tossing that out. So good luck to Kenny Rosenthal. I
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: recommend some sweet baby raised barbecue sauce for the HOGI
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: of Crow, maybe some onions on that little bell pepper
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: and enjoy your crow sandwich.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: And just the fact that the.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Mets are now even entertaining offers for Lindor, that is
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: a drastic sea change for the Mets here. That's a
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: one eighty organizational reset. Is it on the horizon? Stay tuned,
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: developing hot dot dot dot one thing that is not
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: developing hot at all?
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: That would be the report card.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: What are you talking about? The report card? That would
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: be from the home run Derby. The All Star Game
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: did very well. It was on Fox. And you watched
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: the twenty twenty six home run Derby on Netflix averaged
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: five point three million viewers, And he said, well, that
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: seems like a decent number. Well, there's like three hundred
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: million people in America. But that is the least watched
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: home run Derby in a generation. You got to go
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: back to over twenty years ago, in the early two
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: thousands the last time the Home Run Derby did this poorly.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: The Derby this year first time since nineteen ninety four
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: that it was not televised by the small cable channel
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: out of Bristol, Connecticut. It's all part of this new
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: multi year agreement with Netflix.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: In Major League.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Baseball, they lost roughly four hundred thousand viewer. Oh no,
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: but it was a four hundred thousand. It was a
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: number I looked at four hundred thousand viewers from last year.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: Despite the fact that they were on a seemingly bigger platform.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: There was a lot of promotion for the Home Run Derby.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: It's streaming debut. Question.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: The MLB Home Run Derby on Netflix had its worst
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: rating in a generation. Is this major, minor or meaningless?
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: So for Baseball it's meaningless because they've already got their money.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: It's not great.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: For Netflix, it's major embarrassing despite blowing tons of cash
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: and bringing in a guy that makes you flip the
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: channel off. Barry Bonds just a complete a hole, and
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: Albert poolhost who's not very entertaining. They pulled nineteen nineties
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: public access cable TV ratings. If you remember, if you're
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: old enough to remember the east of these things called
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: public access, which is kind of like YouTube. It was
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: just on cable television. The actual contest was a classic.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: That's the thing that's really kicked to the nuts. It
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: was really good. The Cardinals Jordan Walker upset the hometown
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: hero Kyle Schwarber. And it's too bad. The Amateur Hour
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: broadcast completely sucked at a time you cannot suck. For Netflix,
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: we got awful camera angles, basic stats that even non
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: nerds like did not make the graphics on the TV.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: There was the.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: Cringeworthy Will Ferrell comedy routine that distracted from everything and
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: major League Baseball trying to look cool. They want to
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: be hip, they want to be with the cool kids. However,
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: they ended up looking like the embarrassing old uncle who
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: gets on TikTok, like what are you doing to You're
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: too old for that? And sure the spin doctors claim
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: that this is the spin from baseball. Well, they got
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: a lot of younger viewers, younger demo. However, that did
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: not offset losing was it ten percent.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Of their audience year to year?
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: And if Apple sold let me ask you, if Apple
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: sold ten percent fewer iPhones, how would that affect the
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: price of the stock. I think it would Crater. I
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: think it would go down and major lyag Basketball's Home
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: Run Derby. The good news for Baseball when it comes
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: to their relationship with Netflix, the Home Run Derby is
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: truly a one percenter, meaning they drew about one point
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: six percent of the total Netflix global audience.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: Here's that Netflix is on.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: They have three hundred and twenty five million global paid subscribers.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: Do some math on that. What's the cheapest price for Netflix?
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: Three hundred and twenty five million global paid subscribers and
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: the home Run Derby drew five point three million, So
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: that means there were roughly roughly another three hundred nineteen
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: million other people who had Netflix had access to Netflix
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: and had no interest in watching the Home Run Derby.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: So you can't call it a new era when the
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: audience is sprinting the opposite direction. So if this is
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: the streaming innovation, give me back to.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: The old barring stuff we had before.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: Not a great start, not a great So you combine
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: that with that joke of a first Netflix broadcast between
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: the Yankees and the Giants with all.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Kinds of dumb the dumb dumb dumb bits not looking
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: so good.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: That's this whole crossover thing, not really resonating with the
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: bass who are the core of the broadcast. Now, last word,
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: we transition from baseball, we go across the way to
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: the land of Lebron. Cannot go more than ten minutes
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: without mentioning the name Lebron. So Lebron James made his
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: first public appearance since he announced he was quitting the Lakers,
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: and he announced, did you hear the big announcement? Yeah,
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: you're a liar. He didn't announce anything.
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: He refused to reveal his next team.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: And he was at that fanatics fest where they price
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: gouge you there in New York, and when asked if
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: there was a decision that was still to be made,
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: Lebron doing some cheeseball podcast for friends and family said
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: immediately he shut it down, said that he had already
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: agreed to not discuss it. Now, I love I don't
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: do interviews anymore because.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: These guys are so terrible.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: When I used to do interviews, though, I always love
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: when i'd get a memo from some pr hack. Well
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: he's willing to go on with you, but he won't
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: talk about this. Well, that's the only thing we want
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: to talk about, Well he doesn't want to talk about. Well,
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: why is he doing the interview? Well he won't do
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: the interview. Fine, don't do the interview, jack ass, your
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: dumb jackwagon. What's wrong with you? That's so stupid?
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Like you who cared, Lebron.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: You've been doing this your entire life. You can get
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: asked a tough question. You can't dodge the question, y'all.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: I'm not talking about that. I'm not doing that really, Okay,
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: all right, wonderful Now. Lebron did tease the fact of
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: what's ahead, saying he's looking forward to what unfolds next
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: and that it's going to be pretty fun wherever he lands,
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: emphasizing he's entering the final stage of his NBA career
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: more than that later. Lebron also acknowledging that he won't
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: keep everyone waiting forever, just close to forever, saying I
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: won't hold you guys up too.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Much longer, thank god, Lebron. Of course, it don't really
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: matter to me. I got a show to do.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Whether you sign tomorrow, you could go sign with a
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: team in China, I gotta still do the show. Lebron
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: declined to say any timeline or hints about his next
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: destination so quickly. The question why is Lebron James taking
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: so long so long to decide his next NBA landing spot.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: So this is simple, all right, This is peak Lebron theater.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: The man runs these off season clinics like he's at
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: residency at Caesar's Palace in Vegas, back when they used
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: to have free parking and took care of the people
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: that gamble. Not anymore, of course, because they don't do that.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: But they're turning free agency into a bloated Marvel sequel,
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: a lot of ego and some just boring storylines. Lebron
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: has mastered. If he was a baseball player, they checked
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: me out. Jog around the basis the only cardio powered
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: entirely by ego. And we know that Lebron from years
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: past loves the public courtship basking and the love notes
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: and the chocolates and the free drinks and from those
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: desperate executives. And there's no speed dating with Lebron. He
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: wants to be wind and dying. Someone just hand him
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: a bottle and crank up Dean Martin's that samar He
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: wants the love I wants it. He's a total lebron
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: An energy vampire, and he leaves these front office executives
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: emotionally and mentally depleted. Well, he picks a team that
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: compliments him the most for how he looks on his
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: different angles on Instagram. And so it's supposedly a three
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: horse race between the cadavers, the heatles, and the sixers,
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: with the warriors coming up on the outside until he decides, uh,
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: we'll just keep living our lives because what else are
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: we going to do. The NBA waiting around Lebron's simply
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: waiting for that dopamine hit to kick in. He wants
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: to give me the dopamine. I need the dopamine. Okay,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: calm down. It is the Bain Mallor Show as we
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: roll on here through the overnight. Now we mentioned the
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: Mallard Palooza was a huge success. You guys outdid yourself
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: yet again this year, which somewhat troubling, but it keeps
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: getting better and better because now it's got to get
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: better next year.
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: But either way, we are here hanging out and we had.
• 21:51

• 26:17
  Speaker 2: hour of the Mallard palooza, he thought it was the Sabbath,
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: a day of rest. Sean says, hey, Mallard, you and
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: the militia would have been stalking King James all weekened
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: at Fanatics Fest like all these stands that laid thousands

• 26:47
  Speaker 2: have enough towels at Fanatics Fest for all the brown nosers,
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: the jock sniffers who were out there. Do you see
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: how much we talked about this a while back. I
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: kind of forgot about the story because I try to
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: forget the show every time. The end the show with
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: the lebron James not Lebron. I was Jalen Brunson, Jalen

• 27:24
  Speaker 2: can have a photo with me and Jalen Brunson and

  Speaker 2: not spend nine hundred dollars. I just have Alf do it. Yeah,
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: Alf the alien upont says, I cannot wait for bonus
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: time of the mal or Palooza.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we did not. Some of you were upset
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: when you said you were gonna have us vot. We
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: didn't get to vote on your the top four, and
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: I don't understand it. I will put it the top
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: four on the X Machine. You'll be able to vote
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: all weekend.
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: I'll leave the thing open all weekend for the podcast
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: people and the people that listen late and all that stuff,
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: all right, all weekend, and and so that's that's the deal. Okay,
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: just at this moment, we're not doing it because I
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: had some other acts that we wanted to play, and
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: we're gonna play them, and we will have later on
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: normal some of your saying, were you still doing the
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: jokes yet?
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we're doing the jokes.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: I know it sounded like yesterday was Big Ben's lame
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: jokes of the week because a lot of the guys
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: did comedy. I get it, and it's very difficult to do.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: Our buddy Eric in Kansas, I thought, really did do
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: pretty good, do pretty good on that. So I thought
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: he he did so as the voting said, as the
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: voting showed. So yeah, anyway, all right, we will get
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: some reaction to this.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: See who do we have? Who else do we have
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: on the X Machine? Before we get to the acts.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: DJ Spin in San Diego, Patrick says, Hello, Benjamin. The
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: first fifteen to twenty minutes of the home Run derby
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: on Netflix was just buffering, buffering and buffering, not great.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: Eileen in San Francisco says, time to take Lebron or
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: take your time Lebron, Rather, just don't add yourself to
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: the Golden State oars. Yeah, they would be the Golden Girls.
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: Would they do a cruise? Rob Parker, my buddy, Rob.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: Loves the Golden Girls. He went on a Golden Girls cruise.
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: So if the Warriors get Lebron, they could have Steph Curry,
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: Draymond and Hey Klay Thompson could be bought out and
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: he could go back, bring him back.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: Scrooge in the Bay Area, no longer part of the
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: Younger Demo, writes that he says last nights He says,
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: last night's Palooza showed me that Ben Coop and Lorena
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: and Incoter are all tone deaf, arguably the worst judging
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: out of the ten years I've been listening to the show. Wow,
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: how about that shots fired by Scrooge. However, I will
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: say last night's Palooza was the greatest one in the
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: last few years, so that seems like.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: A backhanded coming. Judging was great.
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: Other than Coop in Lorena, I thought the judging was
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: good no, No, I thought my judging was on point.
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Spock's so through.
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: It's ridiculous.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: You did take a lot of notes. I've never seen
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: you that prepared for anything, Loraina. You were into it, how.
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: To stay organized.
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: You were a woman on a mission. You were going
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: to make sure you got everything. You took notes down
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: the whole thing, and I did not. He's just was
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: trying to keep my head above water and not drowned.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: Spots Weed, says Dean Martin.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: Never drank anything less than or anything that was just
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: one percent.

• 30:30

  Speaker 2: thought the quality was outstanding. It was pre recorded, so
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: you got to factor that in a little bit. It

  Speaker 2: I think it might be in the final four.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: We'll have to do the math on that.
• 36:07

  Speaker 2: that's a lot of work. I don't know that we're
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: gonna do that, but we'll have to figure out a
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: way to do it. And so thank you Nimbot in coming. Yes,
