  Speaker 1: tire buying should be. So we're bouncing around here on
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: the overnight and this hour our lead story from Seattle,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: and that was the stage Game four, Game number four
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: of the Alms. Vladimir Guerrero Junior, Vladie, who couldn't hit
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the first two games in Toronto and somewhere.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Flying from his home.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: City there in Toronto, across North America to Seattle, he
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: found his way hit. He led the Canadian contingent into
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: the Emerald City for another matchup against the big dumper,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Cal Roley Seattle.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: Going into the game leading two to one.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: Robbie the Marina fan very optimistic, even Nostre Denis thought
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: this was the year.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: I wonder how they're feeling now? Did you watch no
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Max Schurzer?
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Yep, that guy Max Schurzer turned back time, turned.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: The clock back.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: A vintage performance on the bump for Max Schurzer and
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Andres Jimenez who's been pretty mediocre as a blue Jay,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: but not right now. He homer drove in four runs
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: and Allah.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: The bludgeoned the Mariners eight to two.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: And the game played last night and Thursday night there
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: So the American League Championship Series, which looked like it
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: was over, is now tied up two wins a piece.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: In Vladimir Junior did hit his fifth homer this postseason.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Max Schurzer, forty one years young, allowed two runs in
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: five and two thirds innings for the Blue Jays. But
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: the better story, that's right, it's in the losing locker room,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: and we talk about Seattle, the pitching staff faltering yet again,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: they did the thing you can't do it the time,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: you can't do it, horrific, and the offense unable to
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: keep pace with the Toronto Blue Jays whose bats have
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: been awoken. And oh what a performance it was. And
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: that's a good jumping off point. So let us discuss
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: the question who specifically is responsible, who gets the blame
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: cup of rain from manager Dan Wilson's Mariners as they
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: have hit the schneide hit the schneid here, So my observations,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: I've got Keynote speaker, bio Engineering Company and Taylor Swift
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: and we'll come bye and all of these things together,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: and we're gonna make a safe space for Robbie the
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Mariner fan and JJ and Ritten and crying Craig.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: So number.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Let's not overcomplicate this. It's just overnight talk radio. This
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: one was not a tough luck loss for the Seattle Mariners.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: It was not This was a face plant. This was
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: a belly whopper. The Mariners had the ace in the hole.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: Now the a's turned out to be a joker. You've
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: got Louis Castillo on the mound at home, must have
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: it game, not a must.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: Gotta have it. You gotta have the game. And what
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: do you do? Well? He turned into a keynote speaker.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: But unfortunately for the Seattle Mariners, he was not only
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: the keynote speaker. Luis Castillo is the keynote speaker at
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the suck Berg address, because boyd did he suck. And
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: it's like he was working at an Italian bistro serving
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: up giant meatballs to the Toronto Blue Jays. Now, this
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: guy had been absolute nails for a month. I think
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: I read something like his era was under two. In
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: his previous five starts, I had been really, really good.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: And then in a game you gotta get, you go
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: up three to one, the Blue Jays are back in
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: the hole, a giant hole. There, your ace goes out,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: goes two and two thirds innings, forty eight pitches, forty
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: eight pitches, four hits, three earned.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: Runs, nada, la la.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Hey, goodbye, took him off the mountain. That as a reminder,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: as the great Dick Stockton taught me as a young broadcaster.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: He's retired now, but Dick Stockton said, Ben, you know,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: stat's tell you what has happened. They don't tell you
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: what's going to happen. Here's a perfect example. You could
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: feel the air leave the ballpark. It's like someone climbed
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: up and popped the space needle balloon, like what are
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: you doing? And from that moment on it was a
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: commercial for Southwest Airlines. I want to get away, but
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: I will have a rant, I.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Believe, I don't think I'll do it today.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Something about Southwest and their commercials got me a little upset,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: so I might rant about that today.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: But anyway, it wasn't just Castillo. Now, he was bad, right,
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: he was bad. Gave up three earned runs, but three
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: earned runs is a manageable amount.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: It's not ideal for your starting pitcher to go two
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: and two two and two thirds innings. However, the rest
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: of the pitching staff, oh no, no, no no.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: The call to the bullpen should have come in with
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: roll aids when they came out of the bullpen.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: There the bullpen supposedly some of you told me the
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: backbone of this Mariner team has been coughing up runs
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: the last couple of games like they're giving out Halloween candy.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: Just take whatever you want.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Gabe Spier yet again, bases loaded, two out, walks in
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: a run. Cardinal Sin walks in a run in a
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: playoff game. That is the baseball version of tripping over
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: your own shoelaces. Walks in a run. Someone named Matt Brash,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: not very brash. A wild pitch by this Jabbroni another run,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: and so at this point it's like they were doing
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: their best Benny Hill routine and absolute heartburn.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: Absolute heartburn. Now in tennis they.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: Call those unforced errors walks, misplays defensively poor command of
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: the strikes and not throwing strikes.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: This loss was a body blow, body blow, body blow.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: After game three, you figure out Game three, you flushed it,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: you got blown out. Okay, everyone's due for a stinker.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: But you bounce back in game four. You're in good shape,
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: and Toronto methodically, Bill Leech, it was like they.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Were playing the Yankees again.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: As Seattle's pitching staff came apart at the seams, completely
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: unre and the Mariner bullpen again statistically pretty good during
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: the season allowed if my math is correct the last
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: two games.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: I think I'm right on this. I use Mallard math.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: You can fact check me.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: I believe they have allowed twenty one runs in the
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: last two games. How is that even possible?
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: I believe that's correct. All right, Page two.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: Now, on the Canadian side of things, we had a
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: great time at the Malar Meet and greet in Vancouver
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: a couple a couple months ago. We'd love to go
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: back to can I had a great time there. I
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: want to go to Toronto. I've ever been to Toronto.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: I'd love to get there at some point.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: But anyway, question, how does Toronto's Max Scherzer shutting down.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: The Mariner's rank on your unexpected big board? Not a list?
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Terry in England. That is not a list. It is
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: an unexpected big board, which is much different than a list.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: So I'm gonna put this for the twenty twenty five
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: postseason right at the very top, all right, right at
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: the very top.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Here's why Max Schurzer has been cooked.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: You got a forty one year old guy, Max Scherzer,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: who hasn't thrown a single competitive pitch in like a
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: month or something like that.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Walking into that game looking like Doc Brown.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Just yanked him out of a Dolorean, if you know
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: what I mean. The Mariners were expected to feast. They
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: actually had bibs on during batting practice because they were
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: licking their chops at what they were gonna do to
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: Max Scherzer and the Nerds spreadsheets, because you know, the
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: nerds run baseball.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: If you look at the Nerd spreadsheets.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Going into game for the American League Championship Series, they said, Wow,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: the Mariners are gonna win this game.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: Toronto's got no chance. The analytics gave him a snowballs
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: chance in hell of getting it done. But what happened.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Max Scherzer pants the algorithm. He absolutely pants the algorithm.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: The nerds crying in their computer models. Because baseball, shockingly
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: is still played on grass. It is played on grass
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: by players that smoke grass, not spreadsheets. And so this
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: was a horror movie for the Seattle mayor not for
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: the Blue Jays. It was great, but we're talking about
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: the situation from the mannors. This was Max suers are
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: pitching that way was like the classic horror movie. There's
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: a genetically manipulated and very hungry dinosaur that escapes from
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: the bioengineering company. You know these movies like The Animal Escapes,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: the Beast Escapes, and Rex Havoc. In this case, Max
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: sus are he wrecked Havoc. He chewed through the Mariner lineup.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Seattle came in with this arrogance that they were going
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: to bounce back, and the bats were all cocked in
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: the air everywhere, ready to party. And Max Scherzer turned
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: this into a silent film, a Charlie Chaplin silent film,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: early Hollywood, weak content, just bad baseball, bad offense. He
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: who denied out of a bases loaded jam in the
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: fifth like he was wearing that old English for the
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: Detroit Tigers back.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: In the day.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: And this was a book, the book the art of pitching.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: It was the art of pitching. The thing the spreadsheets
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: cannot account for gile, guts and a little bit of
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: evil genius all mixed together in a stew And I'm
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: not the biggest Max Schurzer fan. I'll explain why in
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: a minute. But Max Scherzer was Dragon balls.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: Max. Okay, do you understand again? The guy hadn't pitched
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: in like a month.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: He shows up and looks like he's being powered by
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: radioactive red. Bully's screaming like a lunatic at his manager.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: The Marinage just stood there like tourists visiting Jurassic Park.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: And they're like, Oh, look at that nice dinosaur.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: Isn't that pretty? And then wham boom, shaka laka gone.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: And this is why they play their games. This is
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: what they play the games. I learned this from al
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: Pacino back in the day. On any given Thursday, a
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: washed up has been pitcher, an old man can turn
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: back the clock, light up the scoreboard and make the
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: other teams playoff hopes look like a wet napkin, at
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: least for that night. The Mariners again, they thought they
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: were gonna win this game, and instead they got delivered
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: a Grandfather Clock vintage performance by Max Scherzer.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: The Jase for the moment have their mojo back, playing
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: with confidence.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Now to the Komodo Dragon in the room. As many
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: of you know, we do this show on a nightly basis.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: We've done this show for many, many years. I have
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: not forgiven Max Scherzer for his crime against baseball That
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: was the twenty twenty one National League Championship Series Game
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: six Dodgers in the Atlanta Braves. Dodgers trying to defend
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: their reigning World Series championship, hardest World Series ever won
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: during the pandemic global pandemic, they won.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: The World Series.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: Dodgers playing the Atlanta Braves needed to win that game
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: to force a game seven. Max Scherzer, who was only
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: a Dog for a brief time, was brought in to
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: pitch that game and Max Scherzer said, I cannot pitch,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: is Max?
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: What's wrong? I've got fatigue.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Now, the theory has always been that Max Scherzer didn't
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: want to pitch that game because he wanted to save himself.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: He wasn't one hundred percent and he didn't want to.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: Risk himself because he was going to become a free
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: agent after that, and the Dodgers would lose that game,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: and Schurezer got into it with the Dodger people. They
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: went back and forth, but it was just so unbecoming
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: and since then that's become the norm, a wussification of pitchers,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: you know, not not going for it.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: But this was a performance were Surezer looked wonderful. And
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: so the Blue Jays are in good shape now the
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: final point.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Based on the last two games, everyone and their mother
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: seems to believe now that Toronto has has this series kidnapped, shackled, assaulted,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: and locked in a makeshift cell somewhere in British Columbia.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: And that they're keeping it there.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: So the question would the Mariners be preparing for cantcun
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: the series?
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: At this point we're four games in. Do the Blue Jays?
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: Do the Blue Jays have a stranglehold on the twenty
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: twenty five alcs. So my response is, Paulice right, do
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: not be a prisoner of the moment. I will be
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Benny Brightside. I am now going to give my friends
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: in Seattle a pep talk. I don't have to give
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: you a pep talk, but I'm gonna give you a
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: pep talk. This series should be on Benny versus the Penny.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: Forget about Fox and Turner and all. I know those
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: things on Fox, but this should be on Benny versus
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: the Penny. Here's why it's a coin flip. It's two
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: to two. It's a best of three. Now and if
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: I'm Seattle, I like the spot I'm in. Yeah, Dave Robinson,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: I liked him in that spot. I like Seattle in
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: this spot.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: And here's why.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: They have an advantage that the Blue Jays do not have.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: And that's our fa What does that mean? That is
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: road field advantage? Road field advantage. These guys don't blink
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: when they see an airport gate. This isn't some twelve
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: hour greyhound bus ride with gas station nachos.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: That they're eating.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: The Mariners love those chartered flights, the catered meals, the
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: per diem, the cushy buses that they travel on, the
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: police escorts. They travel like Taylor Swift on tour. Major
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: League Baseball modern major League baseball has all the creature comforts.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: It's very upsetting to people in baseball. There's really no
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: home field advantage. Every broadcast during the playoffs, it's broadcasting
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: one on one. Oh my god. The crowd is so
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: into it. It's a madhouse here. Every broadcast, even when
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: it's not true, say a sampling, they want to give
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: you the illusion that there's some kind of big advantage
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: because the crowd's into.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: The game and it's not.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: The players are insulated from all that, and there's really
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: no home field advantage other than the dimensions of the ball.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Part the way that plays now. Meanwhile, psa time, a
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: friendly reminder from your overnight blowhard that yet again we
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: can kill the word momentum.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: We can kill the word momentum.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: It does not exist. Because again Seattle had all the momentum.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: They lost it somewhere over Fargo. We determined they put
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: it in the overhead bin. There was some turbulence over Fargo,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: North Dakota, and it fell out and fell down somewhere.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: It's on a farm outside Fargo. And now the Blue
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Jays got all the momentum. However they don't because it
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: doesn't exist. One day in baseball you're King Kong. The
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: next day you're a Chihuahua and you're afraid of the
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: rain and it's raining. Baseball is just different. It's just
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: a different animal sport of baseball. And momentum again, can't
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: measure it, you can't touch it, you can't feel it.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: It doesn't exist.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: If momentum existed, then half of these postseason collapses would
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: not be possible because no one would ever give up momentum.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Momentum would be the most valuable thing in the world.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: You would never give it up. Wy would you give
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: it up? You can't give it up.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: It's the most powerful, all knowing, almighty all momentum. It's omnipresent.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: You would never give it up, but they do all right.
• 18:14

  Speaker 1: the riddle of the day. We go to the hoy
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: POLOI the great Unwashed, and what do we have here?

• 21:35
  Speaker 2: Will go become a cake decorator. Is the answer?
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: The running back says he will make a run for

  Speaker 2: Yeah, of course.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: A cry harder big baby writes in says he will
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: go assault another man outside a nightclub if he has traded. Well,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: that was actually in a casino in Las Vegas, and
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: there are more cameras.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: Here's a fun fact.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: There are more cameras in the casinos in Vegas than
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: at the Pentagon. So if you're gonna beat somebody up,
• 22:17

  Speaker 1: the podcast, just Josh as. Alvin Kamara said he would
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: go skydiving with Johnny Utah if he gets traded by

  Speaker 2: jump off of Clivets. Is he gonna jump off of clifts?
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: That is incorrect, incorrect, the correct answer. Alvin Kamara says,
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: if he is traded by the Saints, he will go
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: drink a Pinut Colada.
• 23:57

• 24:21
  Speaker 2: here we go. Let's go to any Meani miney. Let's
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: go to Andrea.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Andrea is in Berkeley. She's the astrology insider. I've not
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: heard from her in a little bit.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: Let's get the latest on the cosmic news and well
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: to Andrea. Hello Andrea, Hi Dan, how are you?
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: If I was any better, I'd be a brewer, but
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: not a Milwaukee Brewer because they are down three games
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: to none to the Dodgers in the NLCS.
• 24:49
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I really enjoy watching the Dodgers starting pictures. I
• 24:54
  Speaker 6: mean it's like old school, you know, going so many
• 24:56
  Speaker 6: innings and you know, like Siever Mattlack, who's back in
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: the day, and it's so funny, the whole Blake Snell.
• 25:04
  Speaker 6: I'm risking my life, bro. I heard that in the
• 25:06
  Speaker 6: background when I was looking at his heart. But I
• 25:09
  Speaker 6: want to talk about fellow Virgo Tyler Glass. Now he's
• 25:13
  Speaker 6: August twenty third, nineteen ninety seven, and he did really well.
• 25:17
  Speaker 6: I mean the past several starts he's done really well.
• 25:20
  Speaker 6: And I noticed this aspect that happens once every two years. Mars.
• 25:26
  Speaker 6: You know, Mars is important athlete, planet energy, assertion, aggression.
• 25:31
  Speaker 6: Mars's conjunct his Pluto, which is power. So this has
• 25:35
  Speaker 6: been a really powerful window of time for him. So
• 25:39
  Speaker 6: I was really glad to see him kind of carry
• 25:41
  Speaker 6: on the tradition of three starting pictures winning in a row.
• 25:46
  Speaker 6: So that was really nice to see. So I'm just,
• 25:49
  Speaker 6: you know, really excited to watch su're staying in as
• 25:53
  Speaker 6: long as they have. And then when I was just
• 25:55
  Speaker 6: combing through some information, this is kind of an interesting thing.
• 25:59
  Speaker 6: Not one of my favorite players, but Bryce Harper turned
• 26:02
  Speaker 6: thirty three today and he wears the number thirty three.
• 26:06
  Speaker 6: So I thought, oh, there was a little interesting and.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: We're going to talk about this next hour.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: But Bryce Harper called out by the Phillies GM as
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: not being elite anymore.
• 26:17
  Speaker 6: Yes, yeah, so it's interesting. His October sixteenth, nineteen ninety three,
• 26:24
  Speaker 6: So he turned thirty three and he wears the number
• 26:27
  Speaker 6: thirty three, and he got called out.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, on his thirty third birthday, you got called
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: happy birthday, Bryce, You're not that great anymore, Happy birthday.
• 26:36
  Speaker 6: Thank you. I couldn't have said it better myself.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: Yes, exactly. All right, Well, listen, it's great to hear
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: from you as always. If you're doing well, everything's okay
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: with you, Yes, you're all right.
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: I had some back paying flare up, so i'll spare
• 26:50
  Speaker 6: you the details.
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: I know one of your.
• 26:51
  Speaker 6: Callers gave you like a whole laundry list of what
• 26:54
  Speaker 6: was ailing them.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well it's it's a blessing because, as my grand
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: father said, getting old is not for whims, right, you
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: gotta be tough on all that stuff. Stuff occasionally start turting,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: but just rub some this. I'm some kind of gobbly
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: goo or.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: Something on there. You'll feel better and you'll be good
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: to go. Okay, remember that's right, that's right.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: I know that's right. That's a great I do. I
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: don't do it every day. Once a week or so,
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: I take a nice set back. Feels great. Yeah, good
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: to relax, all right, absolutely, thank you, Ed and Virgo
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: and service Virgo in service.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: You want to say hello to our friend Andrew. Let's
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: go to Mike Wanachi Man. Who's next up?
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Hello, mister Onanachi Man for hot Mariner talk Hot, yeah talk.
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, I talked to you not long ago,
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: and I wasn't really overly optimistic. And now you know
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: why I think I've gone through this stuff my whole life.
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: I'm from Seattle Morning, raised there until I moved out
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: of the sewer four years ago. And uh, I think
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: the Mariners are kind of like the guy who thinks
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: he's really tough and really cool and finally gets invited
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: to be a prospect for the Hell's Angels and then
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: does something really stupid and goes to a party with
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: the angels and falls asleep, and he wakes up, and
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: there's pictures of him with them doing all kinds of
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: stuff around him and painting on his face and peeing
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: on him and stuff. I think that's where the Mariners
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: are right now. I don't know what they can do.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: I think Dan Wilson, I think I saw that. I
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: think he's got to shave that mustache. It's the worst
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: mustache since Groucho Marx and Animal Crackers or Rashida to leave.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: You know, it's just.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: It's not not a good look. The mustard. He looks
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: a lot older than he is.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: That doesn't he look a lot older than he is
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: because of the must I think it's the mustache.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: It just makes it look like a walrus. He looks
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: like he looks like he looks like you know, what
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: was the old the guy that used to do that.
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: I can't even think it was name.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: Oh, I know, I know he did the insurance commercials.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah he's dead, but I know who you're talking about. Yeah,
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: burly mustache Yeah, there was a golfer on the PGA
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: tour years ago that had a big mustache like that too.
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: But you know one thing per years when I was
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: in Seattle, I was also a bartender, kind of a
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: cool one of the original Irish pubs in Seattle, and
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: I used to run in, get to run into celebrities
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: and stuff because I was a closing weekend bartender and
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: I used to have some cool celebrities. The only one
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: that wasn't cool was I don't know if you remember
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: who she was, but it was Pat Finlee, that woman
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: that was on the New Heart Show.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: She was a real crank but did not did not
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: expect on the the.
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: Ed O'Neill was cool. Chris Chris Nova Silic was really cool.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: Kim Baale was cool.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: Uh you're you lived right.
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: Down the street from our pub and he was very cool.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: Bill Lamber used to come in and throw darts when
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: the women's w NBA team, the only good thing you
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: could ever say about w NBA. He used to come
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: in to throw dark sleep at night because we had
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: a steel tip board. But my best celebrity encounter of
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: all time was when I was a kid going to
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: parochial school. We had a guy in our in our
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: school who was the nephew of Ben Davidson. And at
• 30:33

• 30:39
  Speaker 3: and Ben Davidson went to the University Washington and they
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: used to play a spring alumni game and he'd come
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: for the game. And this kid lived right across the
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: street from our school, and he was coming for the game,
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: and he came rolling up in his big four x
• 30:55

• 30:58
  Speaker 3: the pickup, and the nuns let him come over to

• 31:07
  Speaker 3: to get autographs mine and I was coming from the
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: Scholastic Book Club thing and the only thing I had
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: for him to sign was The Rise and Fall of
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: Adolf Hitler by William Shire, and I handed it to
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: him and he looked at it, and you can kind
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: of imagine he gave me this look like you got
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: to be a kidd, and he goes, really, and I said,

• 33:14
  Speaker 1: if you're you can tell by the sound, So you

• 33:22
  Speaker 1: loud one or it's going to be a quiet one.

  Speaker 1: or five people in there, and.
• 33:31

• 33:33
  Speaker 2: not know. You could have the quiet ones in the
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: world and then that one time. Yeah exactly. I mean,
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: and you know, you don't know.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: And that's the thing about it too, is you don't
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: know what it's going to be a clean one or
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: sometimes you don't squeaker, yeah exactly, the uh you know
