• 1:30
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure which fun fact to put in my
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: professional bio, whether or not I've won two Benny's, or

• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Well, it's one of the great fantasy football events of

  Speaker 1: in the building that the NFL Bookham may be returning
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: now that President Trump is back in the White House,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: that we may look them back. Baby.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: So this is like how John Grew was reinstated into
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: the Bucks.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Yes, he was kicked out because the politics said you
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: got to kick him out. But now come on back, John.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Are they gonna have a ceremony for him again because
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: they well they didn't have a ceremony to kick him out,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: but yes, very similar to that. Well, we have the
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: mail bag, Danny, So rather than must futs around and
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: all that, let's hit that button right there in Ohio,
• 2:22

• 2:40
  Speaker 1: all right, thank you, ohio al And here it is.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: These are actual questions from actual listeners to the show.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: You don't have to participate, but if you want to
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: send a message in care of Real fifth Hour at
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: gmail dot com. That's Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: First one this week Danny from Kevin in Kansas. He
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: says he's visiting Phoenix right now. He wrote in He says,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Dear Ben and Danny, g. I'm visiting the Phoenix area
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: this weekend. We went past the site of the new BUCkies. Yes,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: this will be the closest BUCkies to LA and I
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: am planning on making a pilgrimage to the Phoenix area
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: once this thing open. It's not open yet, Danny, but
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: there'll be a BUCkies in the Phoenix area. How cool
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: is that? That's awesome.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: I cannot wait. You know, I've never been to one before.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: I've been to one. I was the one in Columbia,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: South Carolina, and it was awesome. It was so freaking cool.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: I can't wait to not that that's right next door,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: but I do have some family in Phoenix, and I
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: can say I'll go visit family and just go to
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: BUCkies anyway, Kevin says, there's not a lot to show.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: He sent some photos here you can't see him, Danny,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: He says, has not a lot to show you, as
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: you can tell by the photos I'm sending, But it
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: will be worth the wait. He says, if you guys
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: got a job at BUCkies, what would you do? Would
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: you make the pulled pork sandwiches, stock the BUCkies nuggets,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: greet the customers. How about doing a live remote or
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: a meet and greet at a BUCkies? Well I would
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: be all for that, Dan, I think you'd be down
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: with that too. If BUCkies wants to pay for us
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: to do the Fifth Hour podcast at BUCkies, we would
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: be flattered. We give them all this free publicity. Anyway,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: Why don't we just go there, spend a couple of bucks,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: and we'll hang out and do the show from BUCkies
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: while they make those Texas barbecue beef sandwiches. Because it's
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: gonna be tough for you to answer this, Danny, because
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: you've never been to BUCkies. But Kevin, I've been to one,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: and I would like to be at that station with
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: all that smoke meat. That's where I would like to
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: be that sandwich. One of the top five barbecue sandwiches
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: I've ever had was at BUCkies, of all places. Now,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: it may have been because I was tired, it might
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: have been because I was in the middle of a fast,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: but it was so fricking good. This Texas barbecue beef
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: sandwich was awesome, So I would do that at and
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: BUCkies is like the Costco of truck stops, although it's
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: not actually a truck stop. I've been told by truck
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: drivers that trucks aren't actually allowed at BUCkies. It's just
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: for commuter cars. It's for people traveling down the interstate
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: and all that. But it's an amazing place. And I'm
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: surprised Dan, with all the shows you guys have done
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: on the road with Covino and Rich that you have
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: not ended up in a BUCkies area. I'm sure you've
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: been to a place that had a BUCkies, you just
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: didn't end up there because you were doing other stuff.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: Right, We're pretty rushed getting into the city's Graduate hotel,
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: live broadcast, hang out with listeners afterwards, and then the
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: next day turn around usually and go right home.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: Gotcha all right? Well, Kevin, enjoy your stay in the
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Valley of the Sun. I think you must be going
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: to spring training. Maybe not, though I don't know what
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: else you got going on there, But whatever it is,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: hope you have a fun time in the Valley of
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the Sun. Mike and Fullerton writes and says, Hey, Benny
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: the Bopper and Danny g and Mike says, has there
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: been any pushback from listeners or someone from tire raq
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: dot com for using Fullerton to help sell snow tires
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: in the live reads? I know you both know Fullerton's
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: a cold weather city, but the majority don't. He says. Also,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: who did you guys vote for in all the Benny categories?
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Alf and I would love to know. Yeah, Well, you're
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: never supposed to announce who you vote for in the
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Bennies and won't. We won't do that now. In fact,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: I haven't even voted Yet'm gonna I'm gonna vote later
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: today because I know my vote will matter more depending
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: on where the categories are. And as far as the
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: tire Iraq commercials, exciting news, Danny new copy, we had
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: a recording session last week. New tire Iraq commercials.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: Oh boy, is it something about spring?
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Well, it's not. Hey, snow and ice are coming.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: Usually is when the weather or the season changes, that's
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: when their copy changes. So you'll say something like, hey,
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: with baseball coming and lots of spring cleanup action, it's
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: time to get some new spring wheels.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: Something along those lines, Danny. But it's funny, you know,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: the copy is resonating with the listeners. I'm pretty sure
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: the tire rack people love this because, as you know,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: Danny from working with me all these years, that I
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: like to embellish a live read. I like to add
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: a little flavor, little spice on top, little hot pepper,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: and so I'll just start going off the copy. I
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: make it a bit on the show, and then at
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: the top of the hour I do the live read.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: And it's at the point now where I've got guys
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: like Fargo, Pete. Hey, it's not there's no more snow here,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: all right, the weather's better. Stop with the commercial. These
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: guys all email it in. What are you doing? All right?
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Stop with the snow and ice are coming? We're good, Okay,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: We're all right here. You know it's March. Now, what
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: are you doing so well?
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: Do you understand though, that good top notch producer on
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: your show Yeah, they would annually go into that copy
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: and change that to say snow and ice is here.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, not is coming well from your lips to God's ears.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Alf from the tile bag, right said? He says on
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: the mailbag, he says, guys, since this is a podcast
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: and you're not held back by the normal constraints of
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: terrestrial radio, and this is nothing like ask Ben, I've
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: got some things to say. First of all, let me
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: give you Alf's word of the week, as it pertains
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: to scrabble. Alf's word of the word. That's good. He
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: did this because I was so busy ranting on Friday
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: about Matthew. No, I know what I do. The Benny
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Show on Friday yesterday was the Stafford rant where Stafford
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: agreed to the deal on Friday, and then I ranted
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: on Saturday. And now we're at the mailbag. But I
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: didn't even have time to get to the word of
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: the week, of the phrase of the week. I never
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: did that. That's a bad job by me. But Alf
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: says the word is bingo, in a term that is
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: adopted from scrap. Alf says, it's when you're able to
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: place use to place all seven letters, therefore getting a
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: bingo in contrast to scrabble, where a bingo earns fifty points,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: a bingo earns you an extra thirty five points in
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Words with Friends after adding multiplier tiles, he says. Then
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: the email continues. I've used this term because, as you know, Benjamin,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: you played two, not just one, but two bingo words
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: on consecutive turns to turn our maiden scrabble game into
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: a devastation situation and a beatdown for the ages. I
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: feel that I've earned this honor or power thanks to
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: the aforementioned beating, to give you not one but two
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: new ALF officially sanctioned nicknames. They are Benny Bingo and
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Benny beat Down. Feel free to add them to your
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: rundown going forward. That's great idea, ALF, and I will
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: likely do that, and it's been a lot of fun. Danny,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: I'm on this. It's called the Scrabble Go app on
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: my iPhone if you're on Android, and if you want
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: to play scrabble against me, I'm not getting paid. Then
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: they didn't tell me to do this. I like playing scrabble.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: At my downtime, I play scrabble, So if you want
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: to play against me, and I've got a good group
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: of listeners. Now Alf is in there, Noah in Austin.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: I play against him. Just added a new guy from Ohio.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: There's a couple other people that I am forgetting their names,
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: but they're also playing. So if you want to send
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: a game, I'm on there under Benny, I got my
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: avatar has a Dodger hat on Brooklyn Dodger hat.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: And if you sign up for this, you get Ben
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: Maller's personal cell number.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, in fact, you can come over and have
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: dinner if you want, come on, have a dinner. I
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: don't care thet's see next one boy did not This
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: person did not sign their name. Danny. You know how
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: I feel about that.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: What a shrop boy?
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Anonymous Anonymous Ben and Danny, Benny and Danny g Danny.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: I know you're a Laker fan. You're probably fired up
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: about Luca coming to the team. Well, Lebron James went
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: on a rant this week complaining about the media. I
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: wanted to get your thoughts. You didn't mention this on
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: the Overnight show, Ben, I don't know if you saw
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: it or not, and then he sent the quote I
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: guess Lebron said, I don't know if you guys covered
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: this on Covino and Rich this week. Lebron said, why
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: do you want to be the face of the league
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: when all the people that cover our game and talk
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: about our game on a day today basis shit on everybody.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: That was the quote from I guess Lebron, But Anonymous
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: wanted are.
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: Confused about who he's talking about because when I watch
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: those boring NBA shows on TV, they kind of just
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: break down the games shows like ours. On the radio,
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: we talk about TMZ sports type stuff. So is he
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: talking about trolls? Is he talking about radio guys?
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah? And is the criticism my first point, Anonymous, is
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: the criticism unjustified. It's a bad product, just little quality control.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: The NBA is a league that does not care about
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: the regular season, so why should the fans care about
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: the regular seasons? Is that irrational to say that? Is
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: that some kind of you're just being a hater. Well,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: if you're speaking the truth, you're not being a hater.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: You're just pointing out what is going on in the world,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: what is currently accepted by Adam Silver and the powers
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: that be in the NBA. It's common knowledge that they
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: don't care about the people to buy tickets or watch
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: the games on TV. Load management, which they've tried to
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: tone down, but the regular season, it just doesn't matter.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: There's teams and star players that find it more of
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: a nuisance than anything. And number two, and this has
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: always been my rant. I used to hear this a
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: lot early on. I haven't heard it so much in
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: recent years since Trump became president. The first time, you're
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: too negative. You should be positive, you know. And I
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: made the adjustment years ago. Danny occasionally on Benny Bright's side,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: and that's my positive side. But for the most part,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: as you know from working in this business, nantial is
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: using just studying human nature. Humans react to negative negativity.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: The Internet, which is where everything is done. All the
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: commerce has done these days on the internet. Right in
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: our world we have the live radio show. It's broadcast
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: on iHeart, which is on the internet streaming, it's repackaged
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: on the podcast which is on the Internet. The Internet
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: is a area, an ecosystem that is designed for negativity
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: because human beings react to negativity. People want engagement. The
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: way you make money is through engagement, whether it's a
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: radio show, engaging the audience, whether you're online and negative
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: things bring more engagement. That's a reality. So if Lebron
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: has a problem with the media, he's really got a
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: problem with human beings, right, because that's how we are wired.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: That's it. We're wired to react to negative stuff. And again,
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: I go back to my original point here that generally speaking,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: it's not outrageous criticism to say that the vast majority
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: of the NBA product sucks during the regular season, and
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: that they have mastered the art of floating on the
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: inner tube on the lazy river, right that they I
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: know that's unpleasant to say and all that, but the
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: regular season is dormant, and the All Star Games even
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: worse than that, And so are we supposed to protect
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: I guess Lebron might take away. I guess he wants
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: guys in the media, Danny to just be toast sucking.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: You know, he wants to be prob the news service
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: for the NBA, and you know that's not how it works.
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: Honestly, there's too many teams to get into the playoffs
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: right now, to play in games and all that. It's
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: a bit of a snooze here and there in the
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: regular season. The regular season is too long. Still to
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: this day, my favorite season was the strike shortened year
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: in the NBA. It was the perfect amount of games
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: in my opinion, so too many games. US regular NBA
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: fans don't even get to go to the arenas because
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: they outpriced us long ago. I can't tell you the
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: last time I got to go to a Lakers game,
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: because you know what, I'm not going to spend my
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: rent money on that. I'll watch it on TV. And
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: if it wasn't for the Luca ad trade and the
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: Jimmy Butler trade.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I stopped going the NBA games when COVID started,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: and I remember it was like two days before COVID
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: and that was the last time I attended an NBA
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: game and I've not been back. And I if you
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: would have told me when I was in my twenties,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: when I was going to NBA games every night, that
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: I'd be at a point in my life where I
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: just didn't miss it, I don't now like you, Danny.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, we've got a job to do, and we're
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: looking for content. We're always scouring the world for content,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: and so I do pay attention, but it is more
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: the TMZS type stories than it is the games. We
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: don't break down game. Very rarely do we break down games.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Now when the playoffs come around, we'll throw it down
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: on a playoff game or something like that. But in
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: the regular season.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, in regular season, we're not talking x's and o's.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and and I have the game on Danny while
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: I'm putting notes together from my monologues, and it's it's
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: hum drum man, it is. It's almost as bad as
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: watching spring training baseball. I don't know if you've watched
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: any of these spring training games, Holy crap, I mean,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: have they always been this bad? I used to love
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: watching spring training games, and it just I don't know
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: what it is. Maybe it's me. It just seems like
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: the broadcast quality sucks. It's dull as dishwater. It's just lifeless.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: You gotta watch like the first two innings of a
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: spring training game because if you turn on the game
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: past then it's like number seventy six versus number eighty seven.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: You know, you don't know who any of these people are,
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: the broadcaster, the broadcasters don't know, and it's just blah.
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: It's very watered down. MLB fans enjoy it just for
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: the simple fact that baseball is almost bat but yeah,
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: you're right, it's not the most exciting thing to watch.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: It's like background viewing. I have it on in the background.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's usually what I The sport that we
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: pay attention to is the NFL. The basketball is on
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: in the background, for sure, and even worse than that
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: would be college basketball. Oh my goodness. All right, Fred
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: from Apple Valley writes, and he says, Ben and Danny,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: before I go any further, I know you like to
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: say this is not a political podcast. However, here we go. Danny,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: he says, I am into politics. I also like your show,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: and I wanted to know as a talk show host,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: what you guys thought of the fight on Friday between
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: the Ukrainian president Zelenski and the US President Trump, says
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Fred from Apple Valley. So, uh I I saw a
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: three minute clip where they it was Trump, Zelensky and
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: the vice president what's the guy what's our vice president's name?
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: I don't remember, uh the guy from Ohio anyway, doesn't matter.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: But uh so they were they were sitting in the
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: Oval office there and they it did get very heated. Uh.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: I don't know too much about it to be it's
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: perfectly honest, Fred, whatever I'm gonna say is probably completely wrong,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: but you asked me my opinion, and it's the podcast.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: I would argue based on the amount of money that
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: the United States taxpayers have sent to Ukraine over the
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: last you know number of years, here, I would I
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: would have liked to have seen a little more appreciation
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: from Zelenski, But you know, I don't know all the
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: nuances of that, but it does seem a very Again,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: I'm not into the political game that much, Danny, but
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: I can't recall any other world leader going to the
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: White House and acting that way? Can you? I don't.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: Off the top of my head, I can't, And maybe
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: it happened years ago before I was around. But pretty wild,
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: wild scene there. They were supposed to have some kind
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: of peace deal, and I guess the think fell apart
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: and they're screaming at the cameras and pretty wild stuff. Man. Yeah.
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: Maybe barstool can get them together for a celebrity boxing match.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, or they can go to that Starbucks at the
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Marriott JW. Marriott in Indianapolis. The NFL security can come
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: over and break them up.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I've been friends with Jordan Schultz for years. By
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: the way, because I produced a weekend show he used
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: to do on NBC Sports Radio and I was texting
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: on the other day when all this was going down.
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: Wrap Aport. Guy's a douchebag.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: I'm on. I don't know he reached out to me
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: Jordan Schultz years ago. I don't even I mean just
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: casual like stuff, and so I don't know him like
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: you know him. I don't know him, but I'm on
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: his side. Like the way that played out. It just
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: having been in some of those similar situations in the past.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: You got here. Here's my theory. Let me give you
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: my theory on that real quick. If I haven't if
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: you haven't heard yet. So for those that don't recall
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: what happened, Jordan Schultz has been working for Foxsports dot com. Rade,
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: Is that correct? I think yes, yeah, he's doing something
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: for the website and he's NFL insider guy day to day.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: You know, Jay Glazer doesn't really do that much anymore.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: It's mostly, you know, on the weekends for TV. So
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: Jordan Schultz has been doing the heavy lifting for Fox
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: as the NFL insider they're at the combine. He had
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: a story that Tom Brady and Matthew Stafford were together
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: in Montana, and Brady was whining and dining Stafford to
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: try to recruit him to become of the Raiders. So
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: then Ian Rappaport follows that up. I say, oh, no,
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: it was just a chance meeting and all that. It
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: wasn't you know, they weren't doing any recruiting or anything
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: like that. And then there was a conversation at the Starbucks.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: Now I am without knowing either one of these people,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: you know, in real life, I'm on the side of Schultz.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: Because my theory on this, Danny is that Schultz report
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: was absolutely right. One of the odds that Stafford, who's
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: from Texas lives in LA would be in Montana and
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: Tom Brady at the same exact time, at the same
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: exact location. They just have to bump into each other.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: It was a bull crap story. So my theory is
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: that Brady's very self conscious. He knows that he wants
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: everyone to love him and all that stuff, and he
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: also knows that might have violated some kind of NFL rules.
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: So Brady deputized Ian Rappaport, who's a former NFL beat
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: writer for the Patriots. When Tom Brady, by the way,
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: was with the Patriots and Brady's people his camp called
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: up Rapaport said hey, do us a solid and Rappaport
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: did and then made.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: They told, will give you a reach around later.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: With all the trimmings, with all the all the trimans.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's the way I like get.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry those are called justin Tucker's now.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: Hello, yeah, man, yeah, all right. Uh so that's my
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: theory on that. But as far as the Ukrainian thing,
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: and you know, it's just can't we all get along?
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: I don't know. It just seems if if I was
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: in his position, I don't know that I would would
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: be fighting in front of the cameras against the President
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: of the United States. But a uh, to each their own.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Reggie in Detroit writes in uh. He says, hey, Ben
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: and Danny, it's been a minute. Still listen to the
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: podcast every every week just about he says. The the
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: new leader of the FBI, is it Cash Patel? Is
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: that his name? Yeah, he says. Reggie wanted to know
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: our thoughts. He said that he wants to form a
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: partnership between the FBI and the UFC to train FBI agents,
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: He says, Ben, I know you're not a big MMA fan.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know about Danny. Is this a good idea
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: or silliness? Says Reggie. My word would be unnecessary? Is
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: this really necessary? Doesn't the FBI have their own training program?
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: Are the FBI agents all eating donuts and fat? I
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: don't know. Don't they already have to have some physical
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: conditioning to be in the FBI?
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: I would think he wants to partner the two together,
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: he says, to establish a formal relationship that would bring
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: the program to the bureau designated to support physical fitness
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: for agents. According to ABC News, I guess they want
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: to add martial arts to the FBI agent's training.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Okay, again, I don't know if it's necessary. Is anything necessary?
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: I guess it would be cool. Maybe the FBI guys
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: would like it. Yeah, that's some cool ass. Means FBI
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: agents now with some of those UFC fighters, some of
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: them might have had some issues with the police in
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: the past. Do you think they'd be okay with that
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: hanging out with the FBI guys or you think they'd
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: be a little nervous on that.
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: Oh, they could work off some of their sentence.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, time served or whatever. You get the FBI
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: agents in shape, and then you're you're good. Let's see
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: what's next. Mitchell not Mitchell from Ohio. This is Mitchell,
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: he says from Oregon. As you say, Ben, the Oregon Trail.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: That's right. The reason I say Oregon Trail. Danny were
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: around the same age. Do you remember that game on
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: the computer, the Oregon Trail game?
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: Of course, it was something I remember watching my mom
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: and stepdad play on their first home computer. And I
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: was a little, little, tiny kid, and I mean, can
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: I try now, shut up, go watch Brady Bunch.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: Brady Bunch, Brady Bunch. When we were in elementary school
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: the computers. We had a computer lab. That's how old
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: I am. We had a computer lab and they had
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: the game called the Oregon Trail, which had the shittiest
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: graphics in the world. But we thought we were so
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: cool because we were playing this game and it was
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: you know, we didn't realize it was actually to educate us.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: But for us it was like, man, they had this
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: little stagecoach thing and they were going on the Oregon
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: Trail and it was like the coolest, like fun.
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: It was like atari graphics. Go back and look at
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: the first atari. I mean we were playing pong and
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: we thought that was cool.
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, a bunch of sticks and squares. Well, it's
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: kind of the cool thing about life, right Dan. It's like,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: you don't people say, oh, you don't know what, you
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: don't know what. You don't know if you don't have it,
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like that's all we had.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: We didn't know what this other crap was, which made
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: it fun. Mitchell says, Ben and Dan, I know, you
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: guys fly for work and whatnot. He says, have you
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: ever had someone die on a flight? Did you see
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: the story from Qatar Airways? And then he sent a
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: link here Mitchell and I guess a person died on
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: a flight and they they made aid passengers sit next
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: to the corpse for four hours on a flight.
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's like when I used to do a weekend
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: show with Arnie, except it was three hours.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Well, at one point we had our morning show. We
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: had Mike North and Andy Furman, which was no Mitchell,
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: I've never had someone die on a plane. You knock
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: on wood. Hopefully that will be the case. I guess
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: there's a lawsuit or something I don't know the story
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Mitchell gave us. Danny says that they violated the FAA,
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: which I guess wouldn't apply to is the FA is
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: not It's American, but is it global? I don't know.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: He said it violated air travel. The story says it
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: violated air travel code. You're supposed to put the cadaver
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: far away from everyone if possible. And I don't know.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: That's where do you if you die on a plane?
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: Like where do they say you die? Like over the
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: ocean or is it whatever city you land in. I
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: don't know how that works data.
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: By the way, the FAA is international.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Okay, then the fa Sure, there you go. Dave in
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: San Diego. Right, so, and he says Ben and Dana,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: I know you guys say like we all did, got
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: into trouble when we were kids. Did you see what
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: happened in Brooklyn? He says that McDonald's has started karting
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: teenagers to enter the restaurant there in Flatbush, Brooklyn, because
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: they've destroyed the restaurant so many times. Should you need
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: an ID for a big mac? Says Dave in San Diego.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: This is early in the week, right, I think I
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: saw this story.
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah I saw this too.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: So kids have been going in there after school and
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: maybe they don't even go to school and just destroying
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: the knocking the shit out of this place. Hey listen, Uh,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: you know, McDonald's a giant company, but they're not there,
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: so you could destroy their business and all that. And
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: if the parents don't take care of these kids, and
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: this is what they have to do, it sucks. But
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: I understand the people that run the McDonald's. What are
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: they supposed to do. They gotta sell big macs. Nobody's
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: gonna go and eat a big mac if they're gonna
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: have some punk teenager messing around with them, right, come on.
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: I was just telling my better half the other day.
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: You know what, I just realized I haven't eaten out
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: of McDonald's in maybe a couple of years now, except
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: for breakfast here and there, like you know, like on
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: your way to the airport, you get like one of
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: their English muffin sandwiches or something and coffee. Yeah, besides
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: breakfast with McDonald's. When's the last time you told your wife,
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: Ben oh man, I'm craving a big Mac right now.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: No, No, it's been years. Last time I ate a McDonald's,
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: much like you. Was at the airport. I don't remember
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: what city we were in. We were waiting for a
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: flight and it just happened to be the closest place
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: at the airport. So we're like, all right, we'll go
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: to McDonald's. But that was it. I'm never I've never
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: gotten in the car and said I want to have
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: lunch today, Let's go to McDonald But I'm not trying
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: to sound a lad. It's it's just that there's other
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: fast food places we'd more likely go to where we
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: just need it home. Now.
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: I know some people craved their fries, and I understand that.
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: And when Brenda was pregnant with CoA, she craved the fries,
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: and I would go get the fries once in a while,
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: so that I get. But they're actual burgers. They've fallen
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: off a cliff to the point where, yeah, man, I
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: remember back in the day where I actually wanted a
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: quarter pounder or something like that. And I can't tell
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: you the last time I wanted to go get a
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: McDonald's burger.
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I'm right there with you. Next up on
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: the mailbag, John writes in from Hartford, and he says,
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: I actually heard about Gene Hackman's death on your show, Ben.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: You broke the news to me. I was a huge
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: fan of jeans like everyone else back in the nineteen eighties.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: He says, I want to know what you guys think.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: Is there more to this story? Any thoughts on what
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: actually happened? That's from John. Yeah, I read a little
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: bit about it over the weekend. I'm sure you did
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: to Danny. It's an interesting story. I guess. The latest
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: thing that I saw yesterday, I think it was, was
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: that the theory is that the wife had like a
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: heart attack or something like that, and she died, and
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: then Hackman, I guess, had a medical emergency. He fell
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: down or something like that, and he couldn't get up
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: because he's ninety five, and then he died, and then
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: the dog died. But I don't know if that's true.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: I read is that?
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: But then I heard they have two other dogs that survived.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And how long they must have been in there
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: for a long time? Right there?
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: A long time, yeah, because her body was starting to decompose,
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: according to the story I read, and there was a
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: small space heater next to her in the bathroom on
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: the floor, so the whole thing is odd.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, is it a case I'm trying to
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: think if somewhere it happened to me, who's going to
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: check on me? Well, because of work people, But Gene
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: Hackman isn't working, and I guess his wife wasn't working
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: either as he was younger. But think about that. You
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: get old enough and you just sit there, and you
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: could sit there and rot, you drop dead, and no
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: one for what do you think a month? Think they
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: were down there for a month.
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: No, I can't imagine.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: Ben.
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: The sponsorship logs on our network don't get done on
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: their own. Somebody would come look for me in an hour.
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, if I didn't do a tire rack read,
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: I've had seven cars out in front of my house too.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: So I hear you on that man alive? All right? Yeah?
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: Who knows? It sucks? I mean, Gene, it's like Saw
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: ninety five years is a great run. But Gene Hackman o.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: Gen, No, it really was. And there's a couple of
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: underrated films by him that I wanted to mention. One
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: from the eighties Uncommon Valor. Okay, my stepdad was obsessed
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: with that Vietnam film where they go in and they
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: rescue some prisoners of war. And then in the nineties
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: he had a movie with Tom Cruise called The Firm,
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: and he was really really good in that film.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: So the ones my first real Gene Hackman memories were
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: when he was in the Superman movies in the eighties.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: That's why I first, I.
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: Remember those were so corny, right.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's like my first Like I remember seeing
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: Gene Hackman in those uh he was Lex Luthor, Lex
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: Luthor right in those those eighties, like the Christopher Reeves Superman. Yes, yeah,
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: so I remember that and and just like seemed like
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: everything he was in was he was solid, you know,
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: rock solid. So anyway, it's a very sad way to
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: check out, and it's a really good way to check out.
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: I would say not turning into a mummy would be
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: a better way, but but who knows. Anyway. Manny from Texas,
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: formerly of Socals, says, Hey, guys, I hope you're doing well. Uh,
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: he says, Ben, you claim to be a distant relative
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: of Nostra Damas and friend of Nosterdenis. Is this how
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: you got your powers? You then send a story saying
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: that Canadian scientists have discovered all humans can read minds,
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: and they say that there's a part of the brain
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: here that you can they can mess around with and
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: allow you telepathic abilities. What do you want me to say, Manny?
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: I mean I already have that. I'm friend of Nostradinis,
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: distant relative of Nostradamis. As you said there, would you
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: really want to have real telepathic abilities though? I mean
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: in the real you know what you'd like?
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: Most of us already hear voices in our head.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: Well, we all have a narrator in our lives, right,
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: we have a narrator voice. I think most people have that.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Speaking of that, a little off topic, The black irishman
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: called up the other night Danny, and he had one
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: of the great takes no one else had has this take?
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: He said, I don't understand, Ben, why we bet on
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: games that before they're played, we should bet on them
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: after they're played. Doesn't that make a lot of sense?
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: Isn't that a great idea? What a wonderful, believable one?
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: More last one? Here we go, Harry in beautiful Palm Desert, California,
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: in your palm springs, he says. Ben. A court in

  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. You're going to get your snacks or whatever.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: You know, it's a it's fine. But other than that,
