  Speaker 2: It's our number three, our number three of the big
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: old radio program, and we start out talking baseball. This
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: our spring training less than a month away, and after
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: adding another star Japanese pitcher, the Dodgers also signed the
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Tanner Scott, a star relief pitcher. There is major fan
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: backlash against the Dodgers exorbitant spending this offseason. It's off
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: the charts. How do you rule on the fan rage
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: towards la Also in Chicago, owner Tom Ricketts recently said
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: the Cubs just don't have the dollars to get contracts
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: like the Dodgers, the Yankees, and the Mets, saying that
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: the Cubs just try to break even every year financially.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: Give me your school of thought on that.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: And Mark Cuban says he'd like to buy the Pittsburgh Pirates. However,
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: the owners won't sell the Pirates because of all the
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: money they're making. What do you think of that explanation?
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: Even though they're not winning in Pittsburgh, We'll go there
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: as well. Here it is our number three, caught in
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: a blue stew welcome. In the beginning of another hour
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: of the Ben Mathers Show, we are in the air

  Speaker 2: the way tire buying show be Congratulations to the buck
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: guys of Ohio State. They dot the I. They are
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: the champions of college football. Notre Dame came out, had
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: a ten minute drive to start the game and then
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: body blow, body blow, body blow from the Buckeyes, four
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: long touchdown drives and turn out the parties over. So
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: Notre Dame's gotta go out and buy some better players,
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: and Ohio State's got to bring in new players in
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: the whole thing.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: It's how it works.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Free agency in college football. Better lead this hour from baseball.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: You realize we are less than a month away from
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: the first Cactus League game. The Doyers will take on
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: the Chicago Cubs on February twentieth, So we are less
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: stand a month away from spring training baseball.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: And over the weekend, while we were all.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Watching the NFL, the Dodgers were doing some online shopping,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: say scavenger hunt where they get whatever they want. The
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: reigning world champions of professional baseball have opened up the
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: petty cash yet again, the petty cash yet again, after
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: the Dodgers agreed to a deal with their latest Japanese
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: phenom pitcher, Roki Sazaki agreed to a contract. Now, that
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: was on Friday night. I actually did a mini Mallar
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: monologue on the Fifth Hour podcast on Saturday morning about that.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: But then again over the weekend Sunday, they agreed to
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: a seventy two million dollar contract with a relief pitcher,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Tanner Scott, late of the Marlins and the Padres. Padres
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: traded three of their can't miss scratcher tickets to get
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: their hands on Tanner Scott at the deadline, and want
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: to watch him slip away? Now go to the shot
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Vez Ravine and pitch for the Dodgers. So you know
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: what happened after that. I assume you know what happened
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: after the Dodgers added rookie Sazaki and Tanner Scott. Immediately
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: there was backlash. There was a grassroots movement or Major
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: League Baseball to step in and to intervene that they're
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: ruining the game, and oh it's so bad, Oh my god,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: the Dodgers get all the good players.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: Now, this is not only fans that are complaining.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: You have baseball pundits who are going on rants about
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: it not being proper that the Dodgers have gotten all
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: these players. The Dodgers have skyrocketed to unprecedented levels. Their
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: payroll is going to be like seventy plus million dollars
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: more than the next team. But you factor in the
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: luxury tax they'll be paying the tightwad teams in baseball
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: another one hundred plus million dollars. The Dodgers will end
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: up paying over five hundred million dollars two fe field
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: a roster at the start of the year, and that
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: does not include the players they will eventually trade for
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: at the late July trade deadline to fatten up the roster,
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: when inevitably many of these players go down snap crackle pop.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: So there's more to come.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: There's one story that I was sent by a Dodger,
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: a fan who thought that I would enjoy this. They
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: said that la, if they win another title in twenty
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: twenty five, they go back to back here and win
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: the World Series.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: It would be a hollow, hollow.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Championship because the Dodgers have gone from villains to supervillains.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Oh use supervillains. So okay, let us.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: Discuss the question for the panel after adding the newest
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: sensation from Japan Roki Sazaki and Tanner Scott. The pushback
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: is next level against the Dodge and all this spending.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: How do you rule on this one?
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: How do you?
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: Is this bad for baseball? So I've got DC Comics
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: brownies and three card Monty. In fact, let's make those
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: geara Deli brown he's the real good brownies.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: We'll make those geara Deli browns. All right.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: So first of all, and we'll put all these together,
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: we'll make a buffet.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: So my first thought is pure silliness.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: And tell me you're a loser without telling me you're
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: a loser, that's my first thought, Like, tell me you
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: have no competitive spirit.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: That the Dodgers.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Just by going out there and running out opening Day,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: they're gonna win the World Series.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Tell me you don't know baseball, Like, just explain to me.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know baseball.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: I'm a fan and I am Joe Blofan, and I
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: don't know ball. Because baseball unlike the NBA, unlike in
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: many respects in the NFL these days, if you're a
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: top team, you're going to win in basketball. In baseball,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: it has never worked like that. It gives you a
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: better chance to win, but it doesn't guarantee anything. The
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: way baseball is designed, players still have to reform. And
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: as far as it being hollow, you know it's hollow bamboo,
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: that's hollow. Dodgers, if they would go back to back
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: or win three or four in a row, nothing hollow
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: about it. They paid their money. If baseball's got a problem,
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: put a hard cap in there. I hate the cap.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: They should get rid of the cap. The cap is crap.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: The cap protects cheap owners is what it does, and
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: it also prevents owners that could spend more money from
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: spending more money. The Dodgers are just saying, screw that.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: This ownership group's not going to own the team forever.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: They got all this money they got to pay out
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: and deferred payments. I'm gonna be really old by the
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: time they're done paying these people, right, I'll be really old,
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: and many of us will be really old when that happens,
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: and they'll sell the team. By then, some other sucker
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: is gonna come in and buy the Dodgers, and by
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: that point they'll be out, and they'll have their World championships.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: And their rings and their.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: Pendants and their knickknacks and all that from the glory
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: days of Dodger baseball.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: You certainly enjoy it.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Right now, the Dodgers are doing what these other teams
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: should be doing.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: They're putting their money where their mouth is. They want
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: to be a dynasty. They've been to the playoffs every
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: year for it seems like fifteen years. They're in the
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: playoffs every year. So here we are, right, multiple World
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: Series wins. That's chicken soup for the soul, is what
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: that is. And we guarantee the reason it's not hollow
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: also is that should the Dodgers stub their toe and
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: ride the vomit comment in the playoffs, I will guarantee
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: you whoever beats them, and fans in general will be
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: or gas Mick with joy. They'll be our gas Mick
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: with joy. And this is why what the Dodgers are
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: doing is great for baseball. You need a bad guy.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: Every story needs a good guy and a bad guy.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: You need that.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: The Dodgers are the bad guys for fans that aren't
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Dodger face.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: For the Dodger fans, they're the good guys. Right.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: That's the way it works, And so if the Dodgers lose,
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: it's pure shot in freud.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: It is regardless.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: And as far as your tears of agony, because the
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Dodgers keep adding players, it's really misdirected. You should not
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: be upset at the Dodgers. You should be upset at
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: your tight wad franchise. That's who you should be upset
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: with the Blue Crew. It's like that that army slogan,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: be all you can be. The Dodgers are being all
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: they can be. And if you want to make comic
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: book references and go through the whole comic book world,
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: the Dodgers have gone. In my mind, DC Comics, they
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: have formed the Justice League. They have they formed it justicely.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: They got the Green Lantern over there, they got the Flash,
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: they got Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, the Martian Manhunters
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: even out there. I don't know who that is, but
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: that Martian Manhunters out there somewhere. They're headquartered in a secret,
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: hollowed out location outside of Happy Harbor, in a mountain
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: somewhere wherever Happy Harbor is. I think that's where Dodgers
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: Stadium is. Blue Heaven on Earth all right.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: Secondly to Chicago we go as we suck up to
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: our chicagoans. At the annual CUB convension, I'd mentioned full
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: of Scholture. I'd mentioned the Pirates debacle where the fans
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: were chanting to the CEO sell the team, and then
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: the play by play guy started like pushing back against fans,
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: you know, and then everyone starts thinking he's a douchebag.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: So that happened.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Then the Pirates star player Paul Skeens, he was asked
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: whether he wanted to sign an extension to stay in
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Pittsburgh long term and help the franchise turn things around, and.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: He didn't answer the question. That was so good.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: So a fan listener of the show who's a Cub
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: fan in Chicago sent me this store. I did not
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: see this over the weekend, so thank you for directing
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: me to this. So they had a Cub Convention over
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: the weekend, which is their PEP rally to get people
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: excited for Cub baseball.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Come out to the friendly confience Wrigley Field watch the Cubs.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: So at that event, the owner, Tom Ricketts, did a
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: good job of taking a bucket of ice water and
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: pouring it all over the Cub fan fest the Cub
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: convention to get people fired up for the upcoming season.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: Now what did the owner of the Cub say, Tom Ricketts,
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: This is outstanding. So Tom Rickets, is the Cub owner,
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: said that they don't have the quote dollars. The Cubs
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: don't have the dollars like the Dodgers and the Yankees
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: of the Mets Bentley, Chicago's had tough times and there's
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: just nobody living there anymore, and there's there's just nothing
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: for the Cubs to do.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: And so he.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Says that, Tom Ricketts, the goal of the franchise every
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: year is just to break even.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: They're not making money, they just want to break even.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: So give me your school of thought on the owner
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: of the cub saying that they're not making money.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: They just want to break even. That's it.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: So, as my grandfather taught me, that's a lot of hootzpa.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: That is a lot of hootzpa from Tom Ricketts, the
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: Cubs owner. Nothing shows the fan base at a fan
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: fest in January cold weather that your franchise has the
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: fighting spirit like Medello. Then your owner is saying we're
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: just trying to break even, that that's what we're trying
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: to do.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: And you really have to be in the.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: One percentile of stupid okay to know that this is
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: this is obviously just nonsense, right, it's completely not I mean,
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: there are apparently some people that just drink the kool
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: aid no matter what they're like.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: Oh he said it, so it must be true, said it.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Let's do some malormath here for those of you that
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: are little obtwos.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: So the Chicago Cubs, according to the numbers, they had
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: five hundred and six million dollars in revenue. Now you
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: have expenses, sure, you have a lot of expenses, but
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: five hundred and six million dollars in revenue. So based
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: on that, the Cubs ranked third in revenue in all
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: of Major League Baseball third in revenue. You know what
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: percentage of money they spent on the player payroll, seventeenth,
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: So the math ain't mathing on that. If you are
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: third in revenue and seventeenth in money spent, it just
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: doesn't work out. So someone we should get some Ghara
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: Deli brownies will have a bake sale. Tom Rickis is
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: worth nine hundred million dollars, the owner of the Chicago Cubs,
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: and I visited Wrigleyfield not that long ago and the
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: land around right now. I was at Wrigleyfield when I
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: was sewing stuff for the Dodgers years ago, and it
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: was a much different experience than when I went this time,
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: because when I went the first time, there were local pubs,
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: people sitting on the rooftops there, and it was just like,
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: you know, the way it had been as I understand
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: it when I was a kid. And then the Cubs
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: bought up all the land. They made deals with everybody
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: around there, and so now it's like going to downtown
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Disney or going to amusement park type situation.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: So stop, I mean, that is a cash.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Cow, real sob story in Chicago, all right now, final thought,
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: So following following the pr debacle, as we talked about
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: earlier in Pittsburgh, to sell.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: The team rant and all that.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: The pittsburgher the yinzer Mark Cuban, who has made some
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: horrifically bad predictions on social media.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: My god, as he suck at that right from the
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: NFL is not going to last.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: You know, they're getting too big, and some of his
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: political predictions have been terrible.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: So anyway, the former Mavericks.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Majority owner Mark Cuban says he would like to buy
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: his hometown baseball team, the Pittsburgh Pirates. However, he said
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: the owners, the owners there will not sell because all
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: of the money they're making in Pittsburgh. Do you think,
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: what do you think of that explanation? What do you
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: think of that explanation from Mark Cuban? So I actually
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: agree with him on this, and I remember years ago
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: I had some people tell me that the dirty little secret,
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: the taboo part of baseball, the industrial complex of sports,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: is if you're willing to sacrifice goodwill in the community.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: From a pure financial standpoint, owning a professional baseball team
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: that is not spending a lot of money is a
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: license to have as much money as you could possibly
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: want in terms of just income that you don't have
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: to worry about it. It's insane. Imagine if you will,
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: because what they do if you're a bad team, what
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: you're doing is you're running a brewery, but you're watering
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: down the martinis and the different cocktails. The margaritas are
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: being watered down and all that stuff. And so that's
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: what these tight wad owners, like the ownership in Pittsburgh,
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: does Cincinnati, Tampa Bay, Colorado, And why would you ever
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: sell if you're part of the pirate ownership, You wouldn't
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: be silly to sell because they've got a three card
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: Monte game and the cops ain't coming. They're allowed, they're
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: legally allowed to play three card Monty. And there's a
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: line around the building of rubes who are either willing
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: to watch the games on TV or they'll go to
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: the games. And there's just enough. When you include the
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: outside revenue, your set rating suck, doesn't matter.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: You've got national TV money.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: Attendance blows, you get some of the road attendants, it's okay,
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: none of it matters. You get to split up the
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: merchandise sales and all that. And so you have teams
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: like the Yankees, the Dodgers, and the Mets, and occasionally
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: the Red Sox, who will subsidize, subsidize the cheapness going
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: on in places like Pittsburgh. And you're laughing as you
• 16:40

• 22:20
  Speaker 2: piggyback ride by YouTuber and foat boxer Jake Paul at
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: one of President Trump's inaugural balls. I learned there's such
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: a racket. I think I learned this last presidential election.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: But we have a new president. There's like multiple presidential
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: balls because each one they make a killing, right, they
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: make tons of money.
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: I do the same thing.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: Right when I do these mallar meeting greets, I should
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: have like two or three of them at the same night,
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: rather than just do one of them, because that's what
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: the presidents do. They have two or three and they
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: have to get all dressed up in their penguin suit.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: They go out in their tuxedo and they play kiss
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: ass and grab ass with all these people and then
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: they write giant checks.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: So that's the way that was. Anyway, we'll go to
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: the phones. Let's go now.
• 23:01

  Speaker 6: Ray there you a goal. Yeah, but the reason for
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: my Coulter first time. But I love the show and

  Speaker 6: love the game. I really appreciate the level of skill
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: and you know the size of these of these people.
• 24:42
  Speaker 6: But one thing about him, and I think he's worth
• 24:44
  Speaker 6: every penny to give him a sniff is He's had
• 24:49
  Speaker 6: multiple weird titles, you know, going through his career, like
• 24:54
  Speaker 6: I mean, assistant quarterback coach, a wide receiver coach, tight
• 24:59
  Speaker 6: end uh, quality control coach.
• 25:04

• 25:07
  Speaker 1: a quality control coach, James?
• 25:08
  Speaker 6: I would love that.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: Sounds like that's like in baseball, the bit like the
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: bench coach. You're the coach of the bench. You know
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: what an easy job that is.
• 25:16
  Speaker 6: They don't pick up the water bottles the right way. Well,
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: I'm going to talk to them and say, listen, pick
• 25:22
  Speaker 6: it up this way, drink it that way.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: Exactly Listen, that's exactly right.
• 25:28
  Speaker 6: Listen.
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: You didn't chew enough bubble gum. And my job as
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: the bench coach is to make sure you chew enough
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: bubble gum. That's a bad job by you. Now, now
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: let me ask you this, James, I know here.
• 25:38
  Speaker 6: Just to get this out, I already said it. But
• 25:42

• 25:58
  Speaker 2: I remember a couple years ago they changed a bunch

• 26:03
  Speaker 2: you're your CFL team, right, your CFL You you were

  Speaker 6: if you drive down a highway, okay, in the middle
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: of like the wilderness, and you see wildlife, for example,

• 28:01
  Speaker 2: I'm sitting in the room. All the lights are out.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: I only turn the lights on for the top of
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: the hour Mala monologue.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: It is eighty degrees in this yeah.
• 28:09
  Speaker 6: It's right now we are with wind chill at negative thirty.
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: I don't care. I'm worried about my problem. My problem
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: is it's eighty degrees in here. That's my problem.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: What, Ben, how's not a problem? Eighty sounds I sweat.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: I'm I sweat like a peg. It's terrible.
• 28:29
  Speaker 6: No, I would so much rather be hot than cold.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: Nah, because you can get a nice heater or something
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: like that. And no, no, because cold weather clothes aren't cute.
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: I'm not worried about it. I'm on radio. Who cares
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: if I what I look like?
• 28:47
  Speaker 8: You can only take off so many layers of clothes
• 28:49
  Speaker 8: and it's still hot, but you can always put more
• 28:52
  Speaker 8: clothes on and bundle up.
• 28:55
  Speaker 6: Coop, come on, really cold.
• 28:57
  Speaker 8: Overheat any day, I'm on this one.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: I'm yeah, I hate the hot man.
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: It needs to be hot.
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: I was thinking the other day when I was at
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: the spot, I was like, I need it to be
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: eighty five so.
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: That cold doesn't cause you to stink. I don't heat does.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true.
• 29:14
  Speaker 9: I'm talking just general human populations. So your personal problems,
• 29:19
  Speaker 9: personal problems. Just go to an area with a large
• 29:22
  Speaker 9: amount of people. If it's hot, it's not gonna smell good. Yeah,
• 29:26
  Speaker 9: that's true.
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: It activates me. It activates body odor.
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: It's terrible because people smell.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: They smell like tukis they smell like ass?
• 29:37
  Speaker 8: All right, come on, because heat causes people to sweat,
• 29:41
  Speaker 8: which activates body odor, which smells gross.
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and even if you have bo if you're in
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: the winter, you have a lot of layers of close
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: so it's harder to get to smell out.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: But how about that. That's a hot take? Send that
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: out a coop on that X. That's a hot take.
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: No, here's the thing is that not everyone smells gross
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: when they sweat.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: Well, it doesn't matter.
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: All it takes is one out of ten people smell
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: and like football, what happens when it's hot In football,
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: players get swamp ass.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: You don't get swamp ass. When it's when it's cold,
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: you don't get swamp ass.
• 30:12
  Speaker 6: Do you remember the time that DK Metcalf had to
• 30:15
  Speaker 6: get like carted off the field because he had to poop? Oh?
