- 0:34Speaker 2: killed Aaron Judge and Show hal Tani to have stayed
- 0:38Speaker 2: at the game and taken part in the shindig? And
- 0:42Speaker 2: what did you make of the overall All Star Game presentation? Now,
- 0:48Speaker 2: speaking of the All Star Game, I was reading that
- 0:51Speaker 2: show hal Tani makes over ninety million dollars more than
- 0:56Speaker 2: Aaron Judge per season in endorsement revenue. How does that
- 1:02Speaker 2: compute with you?
- 1:04Speaker 1: We'll talk about all of that and more right now
- 1:06Speaker 1: here it is.
- 1:08Speaker 2: Buckle up, it's our number one.

- 2:04Speaker 2: Ben Malor Show on Fox made possible in part by

- 2:09Speaker 1: For over forty years.

- 2:26Speaker 1: Iraq dot Com the Way Tire Buying Show.
- 2:30Speaker 2: I'd be so our lead this hour is don't bear
- 2:33Speaker 2: the lead, ma Man from the All Star festivities in
- 2:38Speaker 2: hot Atlanta, the atl Truest Park out in the suburbs there.
- 2:43Speaker 2: That is where the scene was for the ninety fifth
- 2:46Speaker 2: Midsummer Classic, the Cream of the Crop. We were told
- 2:50Speaker 2: from the National League and the All American League All Stars.
- 2:53Speaker 2: They're wrangling on a humid night in the South, and
- 2:57Speaker 2: it was on Fox. Did you watch?
- 3:01Speaker 1: Were you?
- 3:01Speaker 2: Were you watching Joe Davis and John Smoltz as they
- 3:05Speaker 2: were the Chatterbox the soundtrack to the All Star Game
- 3:08Speaker 2: on television? Maybe not, Maybe he didn't watch it. Perhaps
- 3:12Speaker 2: you had something else to do. I was texting a
- 3:14Speaker 2: couple of friends of mine during the All Star Game
- 3:17Speaker 2: with snarky comments and they responded, not watching. These are
- 3:23Speaker 2: people that work in the media, and I'm not watching.
- 3:27Speaker 1: So that kind of.
- 3:28Speaker 2: Defeated the whole purpose of the snarky messages that I
- 3:31Speaker 2: was sending. But it was a historical night and it ended,
- 3:34Speaker 2: I assume you know by now in a couple hours back.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Maybe not, though the fighting Phils Kyle Schwarber did not
- 3:43Speaker 2: get a hit in the real portion of the All
- 3:45Speaker 2: Star Game, but yet he wrote his name in the
- 3:48Speaker 2: book a Legends as he was the first person to
- 3:51Speaker 2: do something in baseball history. Kyle Schwarbert three swings, three
- 3:55Speaker 2: bombs in the All Star Games first ever swing off,
- 4:01Speaker 2: not a derby, not a derby, a swing off, and
- 4:04Speaker 2: that gave the National.
- 4:06Speaker 1: League the lead. They won four to three in.
- 4:09Speaker 2: The swing off, so the official final score is seven
- 4:15Speaker 2: to six. The actual All Star Game traditional baseball was
- 4:19Speaker 2: a six to six tie, but Baseball's calling this a
- 4:21Speaker 2: seven to six win for the National League All Stars,
- 4:24Speaker 2: as the NL blew a six to nothing lead. It's
- 4:27Speaker 2: always nice to see Dave Roberts mismanage a bullpen in
- 4:30Speaker 2: a big game. There he was for the Dodgers. This
- 4:33Speaker 2: is baseball's equivalent. Remember they announced this a couple of
- 4:36Speaker 2: years ago, and we did monologues about it, then we
- 4:38Speaker 2: forgot about it. But baseball's equivalent to the penalty kick
- 4:42Speaker 2: shootout in soccer Olaya. Just like soccer, so game decided
- 4:49Speaker 2: by having three batters that supposedly were selected before the game,
- 4:53Speaker 2: three batters for each team, and each league took three swings,
- 4:58Speaker 2: and if you didn't hit all run, it was an out,
- 5:00Speaker 2: and you only get three swings, and it came down
- 5:04Speaker 2: to the bitter end. That was agreed to back in
- 5:06Speaker 2: twenty twenty twos, twenty twenty two, so three years ago,
- 5:10Speaker 2: and I said, we will never have ties again. We
- 5:13Speaker 2: do not want to worry about running out of pitchers,
- 5:16Speaker 2: so we'll just change the way the game is played.
- 5:18Speaker 2: That's what we're gonna do, all right, So let us discuss.
- 5:20Speaker 2: We got something new, something new to talk about. We
- 5:23Speaker 2: don't often get new things to talk about, so we
- 5:25Speaker 2: have something new to talk about. The question thumbs up
- 5:30Speaker 2: or thumbs down, thumbs up or thumbs down on the
- 5:34Speaker 2: All Star Game being decided by a swing off? All right,
- 5:38Speaker 2: So I've got Rob Parker, WWE and Amazon, and we
- 5:44Speaker 2: will combine all of these things together and we are
- 5:49Speaker 2: going to make the Gabba gool. We're gonna make the
- 5:52Speaker 2: Gabba Gool. So a as far as thumbs up thumbs
- 5:55Speaker 2: down on the All Star swing off, I will be
- 6:00Speaker 2: not Benny Brightside, but I'm not gonna be Benny the downer.
- 6:03Speaker 2: I am going to go sideways thumb. I'm going sideways thumb.
- 6:08Speaker 1: And here's why.
- 6:08Speaker 2: Let me make my argument for this year. I didn't
- 6:11Speaker 2: love the swing off. I didn't it was fine. I
- 6:15Speaker 2: didn't love it. I hear a lot of.
- 6:17Speaker 1: People saying, Oh, it was the greatest thing ever. It
- 6:19Speaker 1: was like, oh, gasmick.
- 6:21Speaker 2: I didn't have that reaction. I feel like people are
- 6:24Speaker 2: overreacting to what they watched because it's a shiny new object,
- 6:29Speaker 2: and everyone loves the shiny new object. My temperature on
- 6:33Speaker 2: this is lukewarm. That's where I am. It's like room temperature.
- 6:39Speaker 2: And here's why when you think about what we actually
- 6:43Speaker 2: watched or listened to if you're blind. The American League
- 6:47Speaker 2: was down by one home run. They needed at least
- 6:51Speaker 2: one home runner tie to to win the final round
- 6:53Speaker 2: of the swing off, not a not a.
- 6:56Speaker 1: Derby swing off.
- 6:57Speaker 2: The game hinged with everyone watching who stayed up late
- 7:02Speaker 2: because it was late on the East Coast. That we're
- 7:03Speaker 2: late night people, so for us didn't matter, but for
- 7:05Speaker 2: those people who worked the dreaded day shift, it matters.
- 7:09Speaker 2: So somebody named Jonathan Aranda from Tampa Bay was in
- 7:16Speaker 2: the batter's box. The three Swings needed one home run
- 7:20Speaker 2: to tie two to win. Who it's never a good
- 7:24Speaker 2: sign when you have to google, just google it the
- 7:28Speaker 2: name of the person who has the All Star Game
- 7:32Speaker 2: on their shoulders and you have no idea.
- 7:34Speaker 1: You didn't even know they were on the team. So
- 7:37Speaker 1: Aranda stepped.
- 7:37Speaker 2: In and we right off of milk carton into the
- 7:42Speaker 2: batter's box there for the American League All Stars. And
- 7:45Speaker 2: on the last swing Solwing batter came up short, hollow ending,
- 7:52Speaker 2: hollow ending. You know I'm right. You might not would
- 7:57Speaker 2: admit it, But you know, I'm right, it was a
- 7:59Speaker 2: hollow ending. Don't bury the lead, my man times too,
- 8:02Speaker 2: don't bury the lead.
- 8:03Speaker 1: So would it have killed? Would it have.
- 8:07Speaker 2: Killed Aaron Judge and show Hail Tani to have taken
- 8:11Speaker 2: part in this historical shindig? Would it have been the
- 8:15Speaker 2: worst thing in the world to have the two biggest
- 8:17Speaker 2: stars in baseball take part in the swing off at
- 8:21Speaker 2: the first ever edition in an All Star Game? And
- 8:26Speaker 2: the answer is yes, it would have killed both Aaron
- 8:30Speaker 2: Judge and sho Hal Tani because they were not in
- 8:34Speaker 2: the building.
- 8:35Speaker 1: Okay, you can't do something.
- 8:38Speaker 2: If you're out of the building and you're thirty thousand
- 8:41Speaker 2: feet in the air because you're on a plane leaving Atlanta,
- 8:45Speaker 2: or I don't know, it's possible that Otani and Aaron
- 8:48Speaker 2: Judge went down to Magic City with Rob Parker and
- 8:51Speaker 2: we're having those lemon pepper wings and having a grand
- 8:54Speaker 2: time because they didn't want to risk out of an
- 8:57Speaker 2: abundance of caution. If Aaron Judge and Otani had batted,
- 9:01Speaker 2: they might have messed up.
- 9:02Speaker 1: Their swing in the swing off.
- 9:04Speaker 2: Who knows, maybe they would have stepped on a booby
- 9:06Speaker 2: trap in the batter's box there and suffered spontaneous human combustion.
- 9:12Speaker 2: They would have burned up right there in the batter's box,
- 9:14Speaker 2: and they didn't want that.
- 9:16Speaker 1: But they were long gone.
- 9:18Speaker 2: And to those of us that watched the entire game,
- 9:20Speaker 2: you're a bunch of suckers. They were out of there, baby,
- 9:24Speaker 2: they were on vacation, and it gave me vibes. I
- 9:28Speaker 2: talked about this the other day, the All Star Game
- 9:29Speaker 2: in Milwaukee years ago, over twenty years ago, when it
- 9:33Speaker 2: ended in a tie, and that famous shot of then
- 9:35Speaker 2: commissioner Bud Selik that used car salesman with a shrug.
- 9:38Speaker 1: I don't know what to do now, I don't know
- 9:40Speaker 1: what to do. This was a missed.
- 9:43Speaker 2: Opportunity of epic proportions, and they're doing damage control major
- 9:48Speaker 2: League Baseball.
- 9:49Speaker 1: They're like, oh, it's not that big a deal. It's okay.
- 9:51Speaker 1: Oh there they are.
- 9:53Speaker 2: Bull crap right, bull crap, swing and miss a wingman.
- 9:58Speaker 4: Ah so.
- 10:01Speaker 2: Yeah, and so deserves a big, giant fat fail stamped
- 10:07Speaker 2: right across.
- 10:07Speaker 1: It that Otani and Judge were not part of this thing.
- 10:10Speaker 2: The biggest boppers in baseball tapped out to get on
- 10:15Speaker 2: a Delta Airlines flight from the Atlanta Hartsfield Airport. Of course,
- 10:19Speaker 2: these guys public played private, private is what they do.
- 10:22Speaker 2: So instead we got, Now, there were a couple of
- 10:26Speaker 2: big names in this thing, but we also, let me
- 10:28Speaker 2: check my notes here, we had someone named Kyle Stowers
- 10:31Speaker 2: of the Marlins and then the aforementioned Jonathan Rand of
- 10:34Speaker 2: the Rays in a swing off.
- 10:37Speaker 1: What the damn do?
- 10:40Speaker 2: Yes, such a bad look for baseball, Such a bad
- 10:44Speaker 2: look on a night where this was their night.
- 10:46Speaker 1: They had the whole night, nothing else going on.
- 10:47Speaker 2: Nobody watches the WNBA. This was the only thing going on,
- 10:51Speaker 2: and you screwed it up.
- 10:53Speaker 1: Now, Pete Alonzo did not hit he was supposed to hit.
- 10:56Speaker 2: The National League did not need to have because they'd
- 11:01Speaker 2: already won before. Alonzo was supposed to step in, and
- 11:03Speaker 2: Kyle Schwarber's stepping up and he wins the MVP, and
- 11:08Speaker 2: pretty good odds on that. If you bet on Kyle Schwarber.
- 11:10Speaker 2: I'm sure there's some dudes in the Delaware Valley that
- 11:13Speaker 2: are smiling right now because they had a couple of
- 11:14Speaker 2: bucks on Schwarber to win the MVP.
- 11:16Speaker 1: All right, now, Page two, So what did you make
- 11:20Speaker 1: of the overall.
- 11:22Speaker 2: All Star presentation from a viewer standpoint a consumer, you're
- 11:27Speaker 2: the consumer.
- 11:28Speaker 1: What did you make of it?
- 11:31Speaker 2: So if you tuned in the truest part for the
- 11:34Speaker 2: baseball and you just wanted to see the baseball, you
- 11:37Speaker 2: just want to see the ball, right, and that was
- 11:39Speaker 2: a showcase of raw talent, that's what you wanted. That's
- 11:43Speaker 2: just what you wanted. You got a lot more than
- 11:46Speaker 2: you're bargained for if that's what you were planning on. Instead,
- 11:49Speaker 2: what you got was what I would describe as a
- 11:52Speaker 2: Broadway production, in this case off Broadway, because it was
- 11:56Speaker 2: in Atlanta, off Broadway, and it like the people behind
- 12:01Speaker 2: Baseball thought they had the Tony Award in the bag
- 12:05Speaker 2: for best choreography. And this is one of the things
- 12:09Speaker 2: you can't just let it breathe. You have to plan
- 12:12Speaker 2: everything out. Now, Am I ball humbug guy on this?
- 12:16Speaker 2: I don't think I am.
- 12:18Speaker 1: Oh, but you're so negative, Okay, I'm just telling you
- 12:21Speaker 1: my experience watching.
- 12:22Speaker 2: Now.
- 12:23Speaker 1: It's possible you had a different experience.
- 12:25Speaker 2: But the Major League Baseball scriptwriters worked overtime to plan
- 12:29Speaker 2: all this out, and what we got the result of
- 12:33Speaker 2: that was an absolute spectacle that felt less like a
- 12:38Speaker 2: game for the balance of the game and more like
- 12:41Speaker 2: some kind of reality TV episode, desperate for quote moments,
- 12:48Speaker 2: clothes quote.
- 12:50Speaker 1: I just got that.
- 12:50Speaker 2: The thing is they were These were not organic moments,
- 12:54Speaker 2: but that's what they wanted, right. They were more concerned
- 12:57Speaker 2: about going viral, becoming a trending topic on social media. Now,
- 13:03Speaker 2: for reference, why don't we start with Clayton Kershaw. He
- 13:07Speaker 2: was taken out in the second inning, the Dodgers left
- 13:10Speaker 2: hander who didn't really really want to go to the
- 13:12Speaker 2: All Star Game. They dragged him as the commissioner's pick
- 13:15Speaker 2: at age thirty seven. He was miked up. He played
- 13:18Speaker 2: some grab ass like he's trying to get a podcast there,
- 13:21Speaker 2: but he's playing grab ass with John Smoltz. And then
- 13:25Speaker 2: with two outs in the second Dave Roberts bops out
- 13:31Speaker 2: of the dugout there and pulls him out of the game. Now,
- 13:33Speaker 2: why did Dave Roberts do that with two outs in
- 13:35Speaker 2: that in? Was it because Kershaw was gas? I think
- 13:38Speaker 2: he hit from like twenty pitches? Is that too many?
- 13:41Speaker 2: Is you know he's an old man?
- 13:42Speaker 5: No?
- 13:43Speaker 1: Was his arm about to fall off?
- 13:45Speaker 4: No?
- 13:46Speaker 1: Did he feel a twinge? No, that did not happen.
- 13:50Speaker 1: It was scripted. Hello, it was scripted, is what it was.
- 13:55Speaker 6: Right.
- 13:55Speaker 2: It was time for him to exit, because that's what
- 13:57Speaker 2: baseball wanted, perfectly.
- 13:59Speaker 1: Time for the fans in Atlanta.
- 14:02Speaker 2: Oue Clayton Kershaw whoo, and he leaves the field. He
- 14:09Speaker 2: tips his cap to the applause, a standing ovation, a
- 14:12Speaker 2: tear jerking molmut made for television.
- 14:15Speaker 1: And that was not the only one, all right, that
- 14:17Speaker 1: was not the only one.
- 14:18Speaker 2: Then there was Freddie Freeman, another Dodger, but always in Atlanta.
- 14:22Speaker 2: Brey right, more brave than a Dodger, even though he
- 14:24Speaker 2: had one of the great home runs in World Series,
- 14:27Speaker 2: his history as a Dodger. But Freddie Freeman, the Dodger
- 14:30Speaker 2: first baseman who's been pretty terrible the last month. Freddie
- 14:33Speaker 2: Freeman a darling of Braves teams gone by. So he
- 14:38Speaker 2: got the full WWE treatment. It's like a Monday night
- 14:43Speaker 2: Raw broadcast on a Tuesday because before the game, before
- 14:47Speaker 2: the Alstar Game even started, you had the TV cameras
- 14:50Speaker 2: zooming in on Freddie Freeman, like right in the dugout
- 14:54Speaker 2: or just outside the dugout there with Ken Rosenthal prodding
- 14:58Speaker 2: him about his Atlanta homecoming. It was so emotional Freeman
- 15:04Speaker 2: of course played along. It's got a little misty eye there.
- 15:08Speaker 2: Oh Man talked about his glory days with the Atlanta
- 15:10Speaker 2: Braves and he still loves Atlanta and the fans.
- 15:14Speaker 1: And really just can't get enough. And then cue the violins, right,
- 15:19Speaker 1: just que the violins. The crowd goes wild. Oh my god,
- 15:22Speaker 1: because they played in the stadium. So the crowd went wild.
- 15:26Speaker 2: And he was introduced, and I could hear the producers
- 15:31Speaker 2: probably on television, and a truck whispering. Perfect, we got
- 15:35Speaker 2: the shot. That's fade to the commercial. Fade to the commercial.
- 15:39Speaker 4: Now.
- 15:39Speaker 2: Later in the fourth inning, Freddy Freeman singleed. He then
- 15:43Speaker 2: took a bow about Chickawawwow, he took a little bow.
- 15:46Speaker 2: There a curtain call, and he was removed. Freeman was
- 15:51Speaker 2: removed for Pete Alonzo with two outs in the third inning,
- 15:56Speaker 2: giving the fans another chance to go wild and give
- 15:59Speaker 2: Freddy Freeman.
- 16:00Speaker 1: A big ovation. Of course, everyone ate it up. Made
- 16:04Speaker 1: for television moment. Why not?
- 16:06Speaker 2: Cameras lingered on Freddie Freeman there like they were filming
- 16:10Speaker 2: Titanic the remake.
- 16:12Speaker 1: And was any of this spontaneous? Of course?
- 16:15Speaker 2: Not police you know, it was not spontaneous. It was choreographed.
- 16:20Speaker 2: It was like a boy band dance routine back in
- 16:24Speaker 2: the day, Right, it was choreographed. It was a soap
- 16:27Speaker 2: opera like production. And Major League Baseball the puppet masters
- 16:31Speaker 2: who go to that board.
- 16:33Speaker 1: Meeting in Manhattan. I how can we get some vinyl moments? Sir?
- 16:38Speaker 1: What do we need to do?
- 16:38Speaker 2: All right, Let's have Kershaw step out, take them out early.
- 16:41Speaker 2: We'll have Freeman come out early. We'll do a tribute
- 16:45Speaker 2: to Hank. Aaron, we'll do that later. I mean, there's
- 16:47Speaker 2: certain things that were in this thing that were just
- 16:49Speaker 2: done for. They were done for the moment, right, done
- 16:52Speaker 2: for the moment. Even the home run derby at the end,
- 16:55Speaker 2: which was not a derby, it was a swing off.
- 16:58Speaker 2: Same concert, right, same same concept and all. Now the
- 17:03Speaker 2: last word here, which I think is appropriate. On the
- 17:07Speaker 2: night that Freddie and Freddie Freeman left the All Star
- 17:10Speaker 2: Game early and he was not alone. Right, We talked
- 17:13Speaker 2: about this at the beginning of this monologue, and that
- 17:15Speaker 2: Shoeiltani and Aaron Judge were Gonzo the biggest stars in
- 17:20Speaker 2: the game left before the game was over because they
- 17:23Speaker 2: had plane to catch or they had to go down
- 17:25Speaker 2: to Magic City and get those lemon pepper chicken was
- 17:27Speaker 2: brought park, so they were gone and the did I
- 17:31Speaker 2: do that?
- 17:31Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 17:32Speaker 2: Yeah, So the faces of the Dodgers and the Yankees
- 17:35Speaker 2: there side by side and they did a side by
- 17:39Speaker 2: side call the challenge leading up to the All Star Game.
- 17:43Speaker 2: And it's not even close in one area. It's not
- 17:47Speaker 2: even close in one area. Endorsement dollars. Now, I was
- 17:49Speaker 2: reading this earlier. I just saw this, but Shoeiltani is
- 17:53Speaker 2: making how much more than Aaron Judge per per season
- 17:57Speaker 2: in endorsements? This is just based on five endorsement revenue.
- 18:03Speaker 2: Otani is making over ninety million dollars more than Aaron
- 18:08Speaker 2: Judge in off field earnings. So how do you compute.
- 18:13Speaker 4: That?
- 18:13Speaker 1: How does that compute with you and the.
- 18:15Speaker 2: Amount of money the revenue between discrepancy between Otani and
- 18:21Speaker 2: Aaron Judge.
- 18:22Speaker 1: So it's not surprising.
- 18:23Speaker 2: In fact, if you go down to Walmart, you go
- 18:25Speaker 2: down to Walmart and you buy my new book Branding
- 18:29Speaker 2: for Dummies, you will find out why.
- 18:32Speaker 1: There is such a disparity.
- 18:33Speaker 2: Right. While Otani and Judge both have high end companies
- 18:38Speaker 2: that they have partnerships with, they are brand ambassadors blue
- 18:42Speaker 2: chip companies Hugo Boss New Balance. Otani is in bed
- 18:47Speaker 2: with the people over at Epic Games. There he was
- 18:50Speaker 2: a first player ever featured in Fortnite, first baseball player
- 18:56Speaker 2: ever featured in Fortnite, So that was kind of a
- 18:58Speaker 2: big deal. But a Jotani makes a hundred million dollars
- 19:02Speaker 2: a year from endorsements, Aaron Judge, Now, I think he'll
- 19:06Speaker 2: be okay, but he's at eight million. So using my
- 19:08Speaker 2: computer like brain, that's a ninety two million dollar gap.
- 19:14Speaker 2: And the reason again, it's in my book. You can
- 19:16Speaker 2: get it at Walmart. It's called Branding for Dummies, Benny's
- 19:19Speaker 2: Branding for Dummies, and it's it's got a global icon
- 19:23Speaker 2: on one side and a domestic boss on the other.
- 19:28Speaker 2: Advantage global icon Otani is the yokozuna of merch in Japan.
- 19:35Speaker 2: Now I've not been to Japan, but I have been
- 19:37Speaker 2: told by those that have been there, some of the
- 19:38Speaker 2: people that were part of the Dodger traveling party, that
- 19:41Speaker 2: Otani's ugly mug is on every other building in Tokyo,
- 19:46Speaker 2: that it's all.
- 19:47Speaker 1: Otani all the time, and so they pay big money on.
- 19:50Speaker 2: That ninety two million dollars a year gap or ninety
- 19:56Speaker 2: two million total. But the gap is insane, right, Otani,
- 20:01Speaker 2: You're getting that kind of money, getting that kind of money,
- 20:04Speaker 2: and you can defer six hundred and seventy million dollars
- 20:08Speaker 2: to avoid paying the People's Republic of California taxes.
- 20:13Speaker 1: All the other suckers that live in California. You have
- 20:15Speaker 1: to pay those taxes.
- 20:15Speaker 2: But Otani's like, ah, I'm gonna take that deferred money
- 20:18Speaker 2: and I'm out, clater losers.
- 20:20Speaker 1: I'm gone.
- 20:21Speaker 2: So I don't think we need a bake sale for
- 20:23Speaker 2: Aaron Judgy. He does have a three hundred and sixty
- 20:25Speaker 2: million dollar contract and that's separate from the eight million
- 20:30Speaker 2: dollars a year, and so he'll be able to handle
- 20:32Speaker 2: those hard scrabble streets of the Bronx. It is the
- 20:35Speaker 2: Ben Malor Show. If you would like to comment on
- 20:38Speaker 2: any of the things we just talked about, your thoughts?
- 20:42Speaker 1: Where are you at?
- 20:42Speaker 2: I'm on sideways thumb thumbs up, thumbs down on the
- 20:45Speaker 2: swing off to decide the home run derby, And do
- 20:48Speaker 2: you agree with me that this is a really nasty
- 20:51Speaker 2: look for baseball, that this is the first ever swing
- 20:55Speaker 2: off chance to win the All Star Game? And Otani
- 20:59Speaker 2: and judge are at the Atlanta Hartsfield Airport or Magic City,
- 21:04Speaker 2: but they're not in the ballpark.
- 21:05Speaker 1: They're gone and they're all alone. A bunch of others
- 21:08Speaker 1: took off bag. I gotta get out of here, Bay.
- 21:09Speaker 1: I'm on vacation.

- 24:23Speaker 2: They complained to me Lorena the way they sent meeting
- 24:26Speaker 2: nasty emails. I was like, I liked your show, but
- 24:33Speaker 2: the music I can't listen now for suck. Let me
- 24:36Speaker 2: point out something now, I have long been I don't
- 24:40Speaker 2: understand why someone would be either so into a show
- 24:43Speaker 2: based on bumper music or against the show because of
- 24:47Speaker 2: bumper music. We do spoken word radio now. I used
- 24:51Speaker 2: to There was a guy who worked with years ago
- 24:52Speaker 2: in in radio.
- 24:53Speaker 1: With like forty five seconds of music. Guys, no, I understand,
- 24:56Speaker 1: that's why. That's my point.
- 24:58Speaker 2: But there was a guy I used to work with,
- 24:59Speaker 2: this guy name Lee, who was a talk show host,
- 25:02Speaker 2: and he would he would obsess about the music. He
- 25:05Speaker 2: would play right, and people would call up and they
- 25:07Speaker 2: never wanted to talk sports with him and say, oh, man,
- 25:09Speaker 2: I really loved your bumper music.
- 25:11Speaker 1: And I was like, what is the point.
- 25:12Speaker 2: I don't want anyone to call up and say I
- 25:14Speaker 2: love your bumper music. I also don't want to say
- 25:16Speaker 2: you hate it.
- 25:17Speaker 1: I don't care.
- 25:18Speaker 2: I score the phones. Let's say hello to Aeny Meeni
- 25:21Speaker 2: miney Moe. Let's say hello Dave who is in Houston
- 25:26Speaker 2: and put him on hold. That's the other guy, Dave
- 25:28Speaker 2: in Houston.
- 25:29Speaker 1: Hold on? Was that the I think that was the
- 25:32Speaker 1: harmonica guy. We'll go back to him. David Houston what's
- 25:34Speaker 1: going on, Dave Man?
- 25:36Speaker 2: Oh, this is the former transgender Dave here, this is
- 25:39Speaker 2: the Yeah, Dave, go ahead, Dave.
- 25:41Speaker 9: I don't know if you justin said you and he
- 25:44Speaker 9: knew about this latest gambling provision in the so called
- 25:48Speaker 9: Big Beautiful Bill, or if some some have called it
- 25:52Speaker 9: the Codex of Satan.
- 25:54Speaker 1: Oh you're talking. You're so you don't want to talk
- 25:56Speaker 1: about the All Star.
- 25:57Speaker 2: You want to talk about the the bill, which would
- 25:59Speaker 2: essentially and professional gambling.
- 26:02Speaker 9: Basically, it would. Yeah, and you're a long time to
- 26:06Speaker 9: generate gam Yes, I am. You need to know about this,
- 26:09Speaker 9: but your listeners might not know.
- 26:11Speaker 2: Well, yeah, there's some language in there which I think
- 26:13Speaker 2: is shiny. They're trying to get it taken out. I
- 26:15Speaker 2: don't know why I was in there in the first place.
- 26:17Speaker 2: I'm sure some activist group put it in there, but
- 26:20Speaker 2: I would imagine that's how that works.
- 26:21Speaker 1: And then these it's kind of like school.
- 26:24Speaker 2: None of the people who vote on these things in Congress,
- 26:27Speaker 2: or they don't pay attention to it.
- 26:29Speaker 1: They just vote yay or nay. They don't read the
- 26:31Speaker 1: whole thing.
- 26:32Speaker 9: M Can you imagine how much contributions will be made
- 26:36Speaker 9: to get that taken out.
- 26:38Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, you're right, and it's just gonna be
- 26:40Speaker 1: a gold mine for the politicians exactly.
- 26:43Speaker 9: That's probably why they put it.
- 26:44Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, it's brilliant.
- 26:46Speaker 2: You put stuff in there, and you know the lobbyists,
- 26:49Speaker 2: they'll pay you a lot of money to get rid
- 26:50Speaker 2: of it. Of course, keep in mind, the lobbyists in
- 26:54Speaker 2: gambling have not been able to pay enough money to
- 26:58Speaker 2: get them to raise the rate when you get taxed
- 27:01Speaker 2: when you win at a casino, they have the same
- 27:04Speaker 2: I think it hasn't been raised since like the seventies,
- 27:07Speaker 2: even though the value of money is a lot less
- 27:10Speaker 2: now than it was in the nineteen seventies, right, the
- 27:13Speaker 2: dollar is not worth nearly as much as it was
- 27:15Speaker 2: back then. But they have not raised the amount you
- 27:19Speaker 2: get taxed on. They've not lowered the minimum.
- 27:23Speaker 9: So for your listeners who don't know, under this new provision,
- 27:26Speaker 9: if you win one hundred thousand and then lose one
- 27:30Speaker 9: hundred thousand in the same year, you only get to
- 27:33Speaker 9: deduct ninety percent of your loss. So in effect, you're
- 27:36Speaker 9: getting taxed for nothing ten thousand dollars worth that you
- 27:41Speaker 9: didn't make. They're still going to charge you income tax, yeah,
- 27:45Speaker 9: which is obscene, but like, I don't think.
- 27:49Speaker 1: How much do you gamble?
- 27:50Speaker 4: There?
- 27:50Speaker 1: You big gambler, Dave, you go to the casino.
- 27:54Speaker 9: I am not a big gambler. I knew you were.
- 27:58Speaker 2: And well, I'm not betting one hundred thousand dollars. If
- 28:01Speaker 2: I worked a daytime show, I might.
- 28:03Speaker 1: But I work at a gambling But I hear you
- 28:06Speaker 1: know it is an issue.
- 28:07Speaker 2: And uh, in my dreams of quitting this and becoming
- 28:10Speaker 2: a professional gambler, I guess are on hold unless they
- 28:12Speaker 2: fix that.
- 28:13Speaker 9: That's by the way, I heard something last week on
- 28:15Speaker 9: your show. It really was. It was alarming. It was
- 28:18Speaker 9: Tammy was throwing shade at Lorena. Uh, I get did
- 28:24Speaker 9: you notice that? I mean, it's only natural those two
- 28:27Speaker 9: would fight over me. Uh.
- 28:31Speaker 1: I don't. We're in such a catch, bro, I can't. Yes,
- 28:36Speaker 1: David Houston a manly man day.
- 28:38Speaker 9: Yeah, a lot of these guys. I know Loraina gets
- 28:41Speaker 9: a lot of blandish months and gifts from people. But
- 28:46Speaker 9: I just want to say, Lorena, once you get with me,
- 28:50Speaker 9: you'll never want to have sex again.
- 28:52Speaker 2: There you go, all right, that's thank you, all right,
- 28:54Speaker 2: we'll be disgusted. Well, I think that's the That's what
- 28:57Speaker 2: it was getting at. Mark the full name guys in Medford, Oregon. Hello,

- 30:59Speaker 1: He's a little work. Yes, what, Well, I don't I
- 31:03Speaker 1: wasn't disappointed. I just I don't. Disappoint is the right word.
- 31:06Speaker 1: It just was a missed opportunity.
- 31:08Speaker 2: And I'm not as excited as everyone else, because if
- 31:10Speaker 2: you're gonna have a swing off, you should have.
- 31:12Speaker 1: Aaron Judge and Showyl Tony. Those are the all stars
- 31:15Speaker 1: of all Stars.
- 31:16Speaker 2: And instead you had a guy from the Marlins versus
- 31:19Speaker 2: a guy from the Rays who were both in there.
- 31:21Speaker 1: That should not have been the way it went down.
- 31:24Speaker 5: Well, but Kyle Schwarber did not disappoint. That was fantastic.
- 31:28Speaker 5: Now it may not be as famous a home run
- 31:31Speaker 5: as the one your Kirk Gibson hit against the Oaklan age.
- 31:35Speaker 5: But that was pretty darn good.
- 31:38Speaker 1: You're talking about Schwarber.
- 31:41Speaker 5: Yeah, you do?
- 31:45Speaker 4: You do?
- 31:46Speaker 1: You're doing that?
- 31:47Speaker 10: That was pretty good? You do?
- 31:49Speaker 2: You do understand the picture was not trying to get
- 31:52Speaker 2: him out. The picture was trying to allow him to
- 31:53Speaker 2: hit a home run. You do understand that?
- 31:55Speaker 5: Why I mean, I'm saying it's not like the most
- 31:59Speaker 5: amazing feet ever done in baseball diamond, but it was
- 32:03Speaker 5: a pretty good way for the National League.
- 32:06Speaker 2: To win the All Star I should have been in there,
- 32:09Speaker 2: mark the four. I should have been there marked the
- 32:11Speaker 2: full name guy, Benny the bopper Man. Back in the day,
- 32:14Speaker 2: I would have dominated that Benny the bopper Well.
- 32:16Speaker 4: I should have been there at the hot corner like
- 32:19Speaker 4: Brooks to Robinson the American League and they would have
- 32:22Speaker 4: won that.
- 32:23Speaker 2: You're dating yourself with the Brooks Robinson there.
- 32:28Speaker 9: No, but his name is Brooks, you know, like Brooklyn Brooks.
- 32:31Speaker 1: No, I know who Brooks Robers guys.
- 32:34Speaker 10: I know who.
- 32:35Speaker 1: He was a vacuum cleaner at third base. I know, yes,
- 32:39Speaker 1: I hear you.
- 32:40Speaker 4: You know what I do apologize to Blind Scott and
- 32:44Speaker 4: you for anything inappropriate I might have said. Especially want
- 32:49Speaker 4: to apologize to blind Scott because he didn't deserve the
- 32:52Speaker 4: brush off. I gave him a couple of nights ago,
- 32:55Speaker 4: and he doesn't need my opinions in an election year
- 32:58Speaker 4: about some.
- 32:59Speaker 2: Stupid All right, hold, you know, so you know what
- 33:04Speaker 2: you're on your meds. I love that you're the good mood.
- 33:07Speaker 2: Let's go about blind Scott. You've been apologized to by
- 33:10Speaker 2: Mark the full name God. You accept the apology, Blind Scott?
- 33:14Speaker 5: Yeah, I do accept that.
- 33:15Speaker 6: It was great to hear from Mark that night. So
- 33:18Speaker 6: but when Mark said that he brought in some people
- 33:21Speaker 6: like there are people that are mad at me because
- 33:23Speaker 6: of what Mark said. I accept the apology, but now
- 33:26Speaker 6: I have to fend off haters from New Hampshire rednecks.
- 33:30Speaker 1: You know.
- 33:31Speaker 2: All right, hold on a seck, Mark, any advice you have.
- 33:33Speaker 2: Mark to Blind Scott, he says he asks to now
- 33:35Speaker 2: fight off haters in New Hampshire.
- 33:39Speaker 4: Oh for a shifting my apology because.
- 33:41Speaker 5: They hate me.
- 33:44Speaker 6: What I represent to him.
- 33:45Speaker 10: Well, you know what, I'm actually a lot more tolerant
- 33:48Speaker 10: than you think I am.
- 33:50Speaker 4: After all, I lived at San Francisco for decades, so
- 33:53Speaker 4: I've seen a lot of stuff then now, and you
- 33:55Speaker 4: know what, that stuff really doesn't bother me if it
- 33:58Speaker 4: hadn't been an election here and it's all the crazy
- 34:01Speaker 4: things that happened.
- 34:03Speaker 10: You know, the assassination, I wouldn't.
- 34:06Speaker 1: Have been You were very worked up. You were worked
- 34:10Speaker 1: up into it, Tissey. It's true. And I've known you
- 34:12Speaker 1: me and you. Go and listen, Mark, Mark, listen, we
- 34:14Speaker 1: go way back. You used to live in the Tenderloin.
- 34:16Speaker 2: District of San Francisco, the worst part of San Francisco.
- 34:20Speaker 2: It is literally in the Bible as Sodom and Gomorra.
- 34:23Speaker 2: It's in the Bible right there, the Tenderloin district of
- 34:26Speaker 2: San Francisco.
- 34:27Speaker 1: Horrible.
- 34:27Speaker 10: It is pretty bad.
- 34:28Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, all right, oh.
- 34:30Speaker 2: I say, Scott, any other final points before I hang
- 34:32Speaker 2: up on Mark the full name Guy, Blind Scott.
- 34:35Speaker 6: I have no idea why this is being discussed, so like,
- 34:38Speaker 6: I love it. I love talking to Mark, but he's outing.
- 34:41Speaker 2: And me in my lifestyle with all right, do you
- 34:43Speaker 2: feel like you're you're outing, Blind Scott. Do you feel
- 34:46Speaker 2: like you're doing that? Marked the full name Guy. You
- 34:48Speaker 2: retract that though, so you're not doing that.
- 34:51Speaker 9: I'm not doing it.
- 34:51Speaker 2: Okay, all right, all right, I look forward to hearing
- 34:54Speaker 2: you in the Malapalooza. This is very exciting.
