If you thought four hours a day, twelve

0:04

hundred minutes a week was enough, think

0:07

again. He's the last remnants

0:09

of the Old Republic, a soul fashion

0:11

of fairness. He treats crackheads in

0:13

the ghetto gutter the same as the rich

0:15

pill poppers in the penthouse.

0:18

Wow.

0:18

The Clearinghouse of Hot takes break

0:20

free for something special. The

0:22

Fifth Hour with Ben Mallard starts

0:25

right now.

0:29

In the air Everywhere,

0:34

The Extra Crunchy, extra

0:36

Spicy Fifth Hour with

0:39

Me, Ben Mahler and Danny

0:41

g Radio. As we are in the air everywhere.

0:44

The power of the pod, the

0:46

power of the pod, the global reach of

0:49

podcasting. Eight days a

0:51

week, eight days a week,

0:53

fresh original audio content

0:57

which might even be mildly entertaining,

0:59

every single day of the week. We thank you for

1:01

being a supporter of the podcast. And if

1:03

you missed the Friday podcast, the big announcement,

1:07

the Malor Meet and Greet, first Malord

1:09

Meet and Greet of twenty

1:12

twenty four and the first one ever in

1:15

the South below the Mason Dixon Line. We'll

1:17

be in South Carolina, Charleston, South Carolina.

1:20

So if you're in Myrtle Beach or

1:24

Wilmington, South Carolina. It's not that

1:27

far away from those places, and if

1:29

you want to drive a little further, I'm not sure what's south

1:33

of Charleston, but check

1:35

it out. So we'll be there. Details on yesterday's

1:38

pod, but Danny g is hanging

1:40

out with me as we get

1:42

the Partey started.

1:44

There was a pretty big story

1:46

in our business that didn't

1:48

get too much attention. I don't We didn't

1:51

talk about it on the

1:54

Overnight show because

1:56

it's more of an industry story. But

2:00

I thought this was a massive deal because it's something

2:02

that I've had to deal with my entire time

2:04

in radio, and it

2:07

appears I will not have to deal with

2:09

it anymore. Did you see, Danny, that

2:11

the Federal Trade Commission voted

2:14

to approve a new rule that

2:16

will ban non

2:19

compete clauses in contracts.

2:22

This is something that radio dudes

2:25

and TV guys have had to deal with

2:27

for years.

2:28

Yes, it is a nightmare. Every

2:31

contract I've ever had, everywhere

2:34

I've ever worked, they say, if we ever

2:36

get rid of you, you are not allowed

2:38

to work at another radio station in

2:41

competing station for a year

2:44

or you know, sometimes it's six months, but usually

2:46

the ones I've had is a year. And

2:49

if you're off the air for a year, out

2:51

of sight, out of mind, good luck finding

2:53

a job after that. It's very difficult,

2:56

and it's really stupid because if

2:59

a station, a radio station gets

3:01

rid of you, they don't think you're a good

3:03

enough talent. They don't think you're making them money.

3:05

So why would you care if that person went

3:08

to another a station down

3:10

the hall from you, down the street

3:12

from you, Like, who cares?

3:14

This would be like if an NFL team cuts

3:17

you and then you couldn't play in the league

3:19

for a year.

3:20

Yeah, you had to sit out of here. Yeah, he's like Patrick

3:22

Mahomes got released by the Chiefs and he

3:24

couldn't go sign with the Raiders.

3:27

He had to sit out a year and then then

3:29

he could come back. They estimate

3:32

it's not official yet. By the way, it's going to take one hundred

3:34

and twenty days or so for the

3:36

reversal to take effect. But when it

3:38

does, they claim that this will

3:40

increase workers' salaries

3:42

by three hundred billion

3:44

dollars annually. That sounds like bullshit

3:47

to me, but that's what they're saying. I

3:50

read about this this week, and

3:52

it really is more important for what

3:54

we do for a

3:56

living. But that's a big

3:59

deal, is a massive

4:01

deal. It's one of it's

4:03

one of those things.

4:04

Dan.

4:04

It's kind of like the blackout rules on television

4:08

for baseball and basketball and

4:10

whatnot, where I'm sorry, you're not allowed

4:12

to watch that broadcast. You're restricted.

4:15

It's just stupid.

4:16

It blocked me from a good program

4:18

director job years back.

4:21

Well, Honey, I've extended our line of

4:23

credit.

4:24

There was nothing we could do about it back in the day.

4:26

So it's good that it's hopefully going

4:29

to be changing.

4:30

Yeah. No, it's it's wonderful

4:33

and it'll be grave and

4:35

I'm not looking to go anywhere. I

4:37

don't think you are either. But if

4:39

something were to happen, we wouldn't

4:41

have to sit out for a year,

4:44

and we'd be able to be right back,

4:47

right back in the game.

4:48

At the top. Man, there is no competition

4:51

for Fox Sports Radio. Really.

4:53

I'm bringing that off a que card.

4:55

By the way, did Don Did Don give you

4:57

that? Or Scott? Which one gave you that?

4:59

I'm not sure any he gave me the card.

5:01

Oh, Danny, you got to read this on Ben's

5:03

podcast verbatim. Read it verbatim

5:06

don't mess a word. Well,

5:08

Marconi would be pressed. And today being

5:11

the twenty seventh of April, the Saturday, it is International

5:13

Marconi Day. How are you celebrating

5:16

International Marconi Day to day? Danny, do you

5:18

have any.

5:18

I'm doing a Marconi Worthy podcast.

5:23

Well, this is kind of funny because Marconi's birthday

5:26

is actually on April twenty fifth, So

5:28

why are we having Marconi Day

5:31

today? It's International Marconi Day.

5:35

It's the way it works. Is

5:37

observed annually on the Saturday closest

5:39

to April twenty fifth, which is

5:42

his birthdate. So here

5:44

we go. He he is credited with the

5:46

invention of the radio telegraph

5:48

system, Marconi's Law, and

5:51

sending the first wireless transmission

5:54

over the open sea back

5:57

in the back in the day, so

5:59

you can think, I think Marconian. He

6:01

had no idea about what any of the Internet

6:04

or it exists. But he was born

6:06

in eighteen seventy four. He

6:08

got the radio wave patent in

6:10

eighteen ninety six, so he's twenty

6:13

two years old, and then in

6:15

nineteen oh one he's

6:18

twenty seven. Cross

6:20

the ace. He created the mechanism that transmitted

6:23

radio waves over the Atlantic Ocean first

6:26

time, ever between

6:29

England and Newfoundland

6:32

which is now part of Canada. And

6:36

yeah, so I mean there's some random,

6:38

random pun facts on today's

6:41

pod. We've got the Magic Man,

6:43

Old Hollywood, some

6:46

other things as well. I want to start

6:48

with this. I posted some photos on the

6:50

Graham and on Facebook.

6:53

I don't know if you saw them this past week. I think on

6:55

Monday. I forget what day. Monday

6:57

was, the day I went to the DMV, So I think while

6:59

I was online at the DMV,

7:01

I was playing around with my phone and I think I sent

7:04

a bunch of photos and

7:06

that is I'll

7:08

give you the inside skinny on that. So I was upside

7:11

down in these photos. Some people thought I was photoshopped

7:13

into these. I was not photoshopped into those photos.

7:17

That comes Danny from one of the coolest

7:20

places I have been to in

7:22

a while. It's a lot of fun and

7:25

I recommend it. It's kind of pricey, but it's fun.

7:27

It's good time, good date place.

7:29

I think there's a few of these around the country. Have

7:32

you ever been to the Museum

7:35

of Illusions. No,

7:38

Yeah, it's in Hollywood, in

7:40

the hood in Hollywood. I

7:44

stepped over human shit, human

7:47

piss, and then we're

7:49

around some homeless people and there

7:51

is the World of Illusions.

7:55

It's a new improved

7:57

World Illusions.

7:59

It's a fully immersive experience

8:01

Dady like no other

8:04

you'll go to. And it's got four different

8:07

parts of the museum. Of course, they charge for all

8:09

four, and

8:11

it's pretty cool. You

8:14

can put yourself in the

8:17

Giant House where they have these massive

8:19

oversized coffee cups and

8:22

shoes. And I think I'll

8:25

post some more photos today to

8:27

accompany this podcast from

8:29

the Giant House, but I sent

8:31

some photos from the Upside Down House, which

8:34

is really cool. You walk around this museum and

8:37

you are in rooms

8:39

that are literally upside down, like the refrigerator

8:42

is on the ceiling, the toilet is

8:44

on the ceiling, and you're on

8:47

the floor which is now the ceiling

8:49

when you take the photo, and

8:52

it's pretty

8:53

pretty well. So the Upside Down House,

8:55

which I love, That was my favorite, the Giant House,

8:58

which was pretty cool, and then they had this one

9:00

which is like you stand in front of these photos

9:02

and it's kind of it makes you seem like

9:04

you're in the the artwork.

9:10

Did you wash your hand after you touch the toilet?

9:13

No, I licked the toilet what are you talking about? But

9:16

it's looking right in the middle of Hollywood, right

9:19

across from the Ripley's

9:21

Believe It or Not museum. Guy was. I got

9:23

down the street a little bit there in Hollywood,

9:25

so I went with the

9:28

wife and this

9:30

is a museum that would not exist without Instagram,

9:33

would not exist without social media.

9:37

And it's it's pretty cool. I think it's

9:39

twelve.

9:40

I've seen some pop ups that

9:42

are similar where the whole point is

9:44

to take pictures for social media.

9:47

Yeah, it's it's

9:49

different. I was looking for something to do

9:51

and I thought that would be something

9:54

I hadn't done, to be kind of unique, so why

9:56

not. And I told

9:58

our friend Lorraine Yeah, that

10:00

she should take her daughter there and kind

10:03

of hang out. She's big

10:06

on the socials.

10:06

So too short to touch the toilet

10:09

though.

10:13

The other thing about that now I mentioned, you

10:15

know, the magic and all that, and I'll post some

10:17

more photos. I'll try to remember do that today.

10:19

After that, since we were in Hollywood, my

10:23

wife had made reservations at

10:25

the oldest restaurant

10:28

in Hollywood. Do

10:30

you know what the oldest restaurant in Hollywood is? Daddy

10:33

Hommy's Tommy's. It probably

10:35

is no. We went to Musso

10:37

and Franks. You ever been to Musso and Frank's

10:39

Grill in Hollywood?

10:41

Never been?

10:42

I'd never been either. I thought I had been there, but i'd

10:44

been to Miss Ellie's, which is across

10:46

the street. I thought that was Musso

10:49

and Franks. I had never been there. This restaurant

10:51

dates back to nineteen ninety. Now,

10:53

if you're in Boston or New York

10:55

or Philadelphia or someplace that's been

10:58

around for a while, he's like, ah, there's stuff here from

11:01

the seventeen hundreds. But in California,

11:03

there's not too much that's around

11:06

that's older than that. So this thing opened

11:08

in nineteen nineteen. It's

11:10

the oldest restaurant in Hollywood. Said to be the genesis

11:13

of Hollywood. That's their big marketing slogan. And

11:16

it isn't much different than it

11:18

was when it opened. And

11:21

they have a back room for

11:24

the Hollywood crowd

11:26

that comes in there, but a lot of the big stars

11:28

I'm talking this is a place where Charlie

11:31

Chaplin ate at Humphrey

11:34

Bogart, Sinatra, Marlon

11:36

Brando, big stars back in those days,

11:38

Marilyn Monroe.

11:40

So is their food in Black and White.

11:42

Yes, exactly. Orson

11:44

Wells was somebody that ate

11:46

there, and they claim that

11:48

even now there's still like Johnny

11:51

Depp, George Clooney, people like that. Well,

11:55

we'll still still eat there. I don't know, It's

11:57

fine. It was nice. I actually

11:59

enjoyed the food. I didn't think I was going to enjoy

12:01

it because this is a tourist trap. And

12:04

then the thing that I like most forget about.

12:06

Marlon Brando, Charlie Chaplin,

12:09

Marilyn Monroe, hughle

12:11

Hauser did an episode

12:13

of visiting with hughl Houser with was

12:15

this guy on PBS when I was a kid

12:18

and we mocked him

12:21

on California's Goal.

12:24

That was a cool show.

12:25

It was cool.

12:26

It was around the edges, but it was

12:29

endearing because of that.

12:31

Yeah, so he went there. He did an episode

12:34

and I read online. I

12:36

did not realize this before I went to Musso

12:38

and Frank, but I read online

12:40

that it is listed as one of the thousand

12:43

places to see before you die. Those

12:45

lists are always dangerous, Danny, because when you

12:48

get a list, what if you get everything

12:50

on the list, then you're ready to die kill

12:53

ourselves. The

12:56

only complaint I would have at Musso and Frank is that

12:58

everything is like kind of o la carte. You

13:00

get a meal if you want the fetichini

13:03

alfredo, and you want a side

13:05

of something else, like potatoes.

13:08

Everything is ola carte.

13:10

And I was

13:13

thinking about pulling a Mallor there, Danny,

13:15

where I would just like storm

13:17

out, but I actually my wife wanted to eat there, so we

13:19

stayed. But I almost pulled a Mallor and just

13:21

like walked out. I'll walk out if they

13:23

don't have chips at a Mexican restaurant, or

13:26

they don't provide free bread at

13:28

an Italian restaurant. They did provide this an

13:30

Italian restaurant, Musso. In fact, they didn't

13:32

provide the bread, so I stayed.

13:34

I did, in fact pull a Mallard.

13:36

Now on yesterday's podcast,

13:38

we talked about your DMV adventures.

13:41

Yeah, well, I also went

13:43

to a website thinking I'm

13:45

not going to drive over there in person to

13:47

get an official document from

13:50

the State of California. I'm just going to

13:52

do it online. Coming up

13:54

is the annual Bass

13:56

Lake Fishing Derby talked

13:59

about this on the PO podcast before Where go

14:02

there and meet up with my pops

14:04

and my older brother and don't

14:06

catch anything, but

14:09

pay lots of money to participate. So

14:12

we have it down to a science now, Ben everybody

14:15

needs their one day fishing license, but

14:18

not all of us are going to pay that stupid registration

14:20

fee because we figure if one of us

14:23

is lucky enough to catch a ten thousand

14:25

dollars baths, we'll just hand it

14:27

over to the person who has the

14:29

registration paid.

14:31

Sure makes sense, yeah.

14:33

And just give them a little cut of the winnings.

14:36

But you do need that phishing license.

14:38

So normally I go to Big five Sporting

14:41

Goods, which out here on the West Coast is like

14:43

one of our shops where you can

14:45

get a one day sport fishing

14:48

license.

14:49

I did not know that. You're telling me something

14:51

I.

14:51

Did not know.

14:51

I didn't walk in there and get a little

14:54

fishing license. It's great.

14:55

Yeah, it's like one of the few

14:57

places here to do that. I was

14:59

getting ready for for the weekend because my

15:02

wife, he had mentioned to me when we were at Disneyland

15:04

last weekend. She said, you know, it's

15:06

good that we booked Disneyland this weekend

15:08

because you're going to be gone fishing next weekend.

15:11

She said that A couple.

15:12

Different times, and I was like, all right, and my older

15:14

brother had been bombarding me with text

15:17

messages about the fishing trip. In

15:19

my mind, it's like coming up, it's Saturday,

15:21

It's Saturday. I got to get ready for this. I

15:24

get online California's website

15:26

for the Department of Fish and Wildlife.

15:29

Well, I've never done this online. Let me figure

15:31

it out, and I see it in all read

15:33

it says all sales are final.

15:36

Put in all my information. I

15:38

order the one day phishing license

15:40

for Saturday, which

15:43

would be today, and it's twenty one bucks.

15:45

I'm like, okay, whatever, I order it. I

15:47

put in my credit card information.

15:50

Boom, and I'm like, man, I'm ready

15:52

to go. Then about an hour

15:54

later, I see a text message from my older

15:56

brother, May fourth right coming

15:59

up in a couple of weekends.

16:01

Oh no, oh, you.

16:03

Got to be shitting me. Immediately,

16:06

I blame my wife and I text her, why

16:08

did you tell me next weekend

16:10

I was gonna be gone. Yeah,

16:12

yeah, the first weekend of May. And I'm

16:15

like, yeah, that's not this weekend coming

16:17

up. So I realized,

16:19

shit, I paid this twenty

16:22

one dollars to get the stupid fishing

16:24

pass.

16:25

Yeah.

16:25

It's the wrong Saturday, idiot.

16:29

Then I think back to that all red

16:31

in capitals, like somebody was yelling at

16:33

me on social media, Zach,

16:36

I wonder if that's real, Like, can I not adjust

16:39

this stupid day pass that I'm not gonna

16:41

use or I haven't used.

16:43

I do what most.

16:44

People probably try to do if I call

16:46

the phone number listed for their contact. Nice

16:49

lady answers and she says,

16:51

oh, yeah, we get this complaint. A

16:53

lot called me sweetie. She

16:56

was an older lady, and I'm like, this is not a good sign.

16:58

She sounds like she's ninety.

17:00

Slarting with you.

17:00

Yeah, she says, sweetie,

17:03

even though we're the California Department

17:05

of Fishing Wildlife, can't help

17:07

you.

17:08

Website we use is ran by

17:10

a third party.

17:12

Oh no, she said.

17:14

We can't even get in there and adjust anything

17:16

inside that site.

17:17

Ah, that sucks.

17:19

So what I'm like, Oh, so I told

17:21

her, Well, if you know, a

17:23

game warden comes up on our boat

17:26

and wants to see my pass and I show it

17:28

to him, I'm guessing he wouldn't take

17:30

my explanation. He would just give me a ticket.

17:32

And she's like, you guessed right, So

17:36

She's like, I do have one suggestion, though,

17:39

and she rambled off a PO box

17:41

in Sacramento. She said, print

17:44

out your current license that's the wrong date.

17:46

Put it in an envelope, sweetie, send

17:49

it over to this Sacramento PO box,

17:52

and if they're feeling nice, they might send

17:54

you a refund. But you do need

17:56

to repurchase another one.

17:59

Do I just purchase another twenty

18:01

one dollars pass and mail

18:03

this thing off to Sacramento? Do

18:06

I just take a chance and go

18:08

live on the edge with my fishing

18:10

pass that's for the wrong day.

18:13

Yeah, I would

18:15

not if you have a chance of actually winning

18:17

the money. Yeah, you gotta.

18:20

If I did pull that fish up that

18:22

has money attached to it, somebody

18:24

else would have to claim it regardless.

18:27

All right, So it's twenty one bucks. How much is a ticket?

18:29

If you got ticketed? How much is a ticket?

18:31

And I don't know.

18:33

You got to look that up. If you don't have a fishing

18:35

license, what's the penalty?

18:38

Twenty one bucks? Is like, it's not that much,

18:41

but that's a meal, right.

18:42

Exactly what I was thinking.

18:44

I bought something on offer up the following

18:47

day for thirty bucks. That kind

18:49

of thing sticks in your craw because you're

18:51

like, damn it, man, what I wasted the

18:54

day before?

18:55

Yeah? No, for sure, now you could

18:57

do. I work with a guy years

18:59

ago Fox Sworts Radio. I don't know what happened

19:01

to him, but he would always drive in the carpool

19:03

lane, and every once

19:06

in a while he would get a ticket for driving in

19:08

the carpooling. But he did

19:10

the cost benefit analysis

19:12

and he's like, well, I've only gotten

19:15

two tickets, and I drive in the carpool

19:17

lane every day. And I've driven in the carpoolane

19:19

every day for ten years, and

19:21

I've gotten two tickets. So if you look at how

19:23

much I've paid in tickets and

19:25

then how often I've saved time

19:28

in driving in the carpoolane, it's

19:31

worth it.

19:32

I just googled the penalty.

19:34

How much is the penalty is?

19:35

If you are found guilty of fishing without a

19:37

license in the state of California, the

19:39

punishment is a fine of between one

19:42

hundred dollars to one thousand dollars.

19:45

Wow, you're gonna pay

19:48

the money. You're gonna be a riverboat gambler.

19:50

Literally, not sure?

19:52

Man, tweet me at

19:54

Danny G Radio. Let me know

19:56

what you would do. I'm

19:58

not sure how to deal with this. Do I just spend

20:01

the twenty one and it's a forty two

20:03

dollars fishing license?

20:05

What a waste of money? Yeah?

20:07

And the tip is also the

20:09

life act is when you get a fishing license.

20:12

Even though it's very convenient to go to the

20:14

sporting good store, it's a third

20:16

party. So the woman made it seem

20:19

to me that she implied that if you

20:21

went through them, she'd be able to change.

20:23

She said, had I gone to Big

20:26

Five like I normally too, they

20:28

could have canceled the sale and made

20:30

it for the right date. So I totally

20:32

screwed up by trying to have convenience

20:35

and trying to do it online.

20:37

Gotcha, he's in complete denial. We

20:41

have the idiom of the week. Are

20:43

you ready for the idiom of the week?

20:45

Idiom of the.

20:47

Week not to be confused with idiot

20:49

of the week, the idiom of the week. This was actually sent in

20:51

by Scott in Northern Kentucky.

20:54

He said, Hey, Ben, can you do

20:56

a deep dive on brass tacks?

21:00

The idiom?

21:01

Get down to brass? Tax it actually? People

21:04

say tax it's taxed or

21:07

tax is actually the

21:09

way it is, and this

21:11

goes back many many

21:13

years, as all these things do. There's an interesting

21:16

quirk to this one, though, because

21:19

tax and nails were made

21:21

of metals, but tax

21:24

tacks have

21:27

flatheads. And there's some

21:29

different versions of how this came

21:32

about. Brass tax, get down

21:34

to brass tax. One of my

21:36

favorites that I saw was

21:38

the early days of America. And

21:42

there's a theory that in

21:44

America, originally they

21:47

used coffin

21:50

tax and when President Lincoln's

21:52

coffin was designed after he was assassinated

21:55

at the Ford Theater, it was designed

21:57

with massive silver tax thacks

22:02

and it was very unique and it was decorated

22:04

with the brass tax as well.

22:07

And the theory is that that

22:09

is where the phrase

22:13

get down to brass tax came

22:16

from. It's now common expression,

22:20

but that version dates

22:22

back to the eighteen sixties. And

22:25

when you come down to brass tax, if we

22:27

may be allowed, the expression, everybody

22:30

is governed by selfishness,

22:33

which is rather rather than

22:36

confusing. A few years after that there

22:38

was an article published that

22:40

said coming down to brass tacks. According to the writer,

22:42

it meant coming down to the serious business

22:45

of death. Like

22:47

President Lincoln so

22:49

I like that theory. Kind of unique

22:52

and why not. So

22:54

we're going with that. There's other theories that are

22:56

out there that are

22:59

different. But I like the American original

23:02

origin story that it has to do

23:04

with President Lincoln being assassinated,

23:06

and that's where that phrase

23:09

comes to, getting down to serious business

23:11

or death, coming down to

23:13

brass tacks. We have

23:15

a little time. Let's get to Danny.

23:18

Let's see some Pop Goes the Culture?

23:22

Ohio,

23:28

John.

23:31

John,

23:37

thank you, thank you, thank you, al

23:40

And what is up first? Here on

23:42

Pop Goes the Culture? So

23:44

many stories and so little time. I thought this one

23:47

was interesting from Jerry Seinfeld. He

23:49

is getting absolutely roasted for

23:51

tearing down modern

23:53

day films. The movie business. Jerry

23:56

Seinfeld said, the movie business is over,

24:00

he said, and this upset people who

24:02

yes, work in the movie business.

24:05

But Seinfeld is not wrong. He went on

24:07

a rant recently with GQ magazine

24:10

and he said, Hey,

24:12

Liz, this is this is not

24:14

this is not a good situation. It's

24:17

just not film business is dead. It's

24:19

buried, he said.

24:21

Now.

24:22

The reason people think this is

24:24

kind of amusing is he made the

24:26

declaration while promoting

24:29

a film that will premiere

24:31

on Netflix. In a couple of weeks. So he

24:33

was doing media to promote

24:35

a film while saying

24:38

the film is business is terrible.

24:40

He's going to make his directorial debut

24:43

on May third, something

24:46

called Unfrosted will drop on

24:48

Netflix. I have no idea what

24:50

that is. Apparently some big name actors and that

24:52

I have no idea. I'm sure my wife will watch it.

24:54

She'll let me know if it's good or not, and all

24:57

that. But the part of the rant, which I thought

25:00

is just wonderful

25:03

is the part where he tore down the

25:06

film industry because I only he's wrong.

25:08

He said, they don't have any idea

25:11

that the movie business is over. They have no idea.

25:14

He said, film does not occupy

25:16

the pinnacle and the social cultural hierarchy

25:19

that it did for most of our lives.

25:21

He said, when a movie

25:23

came out, if it was good, we all

25:26

went to see it, We all discussed

25:28

it, We quoted lines and scenes

25:30

we liked. Now we're walking

25:32

through a fire hose of

25:34

water just trying to see. He

25:38

claimed.

25:39

Our parents and grandparents sat in lines

25:42

of cars to go to drive in

25:44

theaters around the country.

25:46

Yeah, well, they also wanted to make out in the car

25:49

though you know it was part of the deal, but

25:52

were born. Yeah, the

25:55

point of conception. But he's he's

25:57

so right on that. I quote

25:59

a lot lot of movies, and

26:01

I mentioned different random things and monologues, but I

26:05

don't mention any

26:07

movie from the last probably

26:10

fifteen years at least, maybe longer than

26:12

that. I think it's been about fifteen

26:14

years since movies really really got bad.

26:18

I just don't do it. And some people

26:20

say, well, it's because you're a boomer. It's like, no,

26:23

if a movie is good and

26:25

there's a good line in it, I'll quote

26:27

it. It's just it

26:30

was like a big to do to go to the show. I

26:32

remember my aunt loved

26:34

to go to the show. It was a big deal, and my

26:37

mom would drop us off at the movie theater. We

26:39

thought we were like the coolest kids in the world. We'd

26:41

buy one ticket and just hang out for eight

26:44

hours at the movie theater watching different movies.

26:46

But it's not like that, right Obviously.

26:49

Our go to move was my mom would drop

26:52

us off at the movie. I think there was like one

26:54

day a week where it was like a cheaper price.

26:56

Do you remember that.

26:57

Yeah, yeah, it was like early in the week Monday or Tuesday

26:59

or.

26:59

Something like that, like Tuesday movies or something.

27:01

And so during the summer, she'd drop

27:04

us off at a Tuesday afternoon movie. My

27:06

older brother would take me into the

27:08

rated R movie across the hall and

27:10

then would rehearse the lie with me about

27:13

what the PG movie was all about?

27:15

Salid, did

27:18

you ever have to use that information?

27:20

For sure?

27:20

Because my mom would quizzes, so what was the movie

27:22

about? And my brother would then elbow

27:25

me and I'd have to repeat my rehearsed lines.

27:27

Oh, okay, all right, that's good, that's

27:30

solid, that's good teamwork. That's

27:32

brother helping brother. That's what that is. Oh

27:35

I like this story. A actor

27:37

from Family Guy has revealed

27:40

his parents hate the show and

27:42

they would like to show off the air.

27:45

Keep in mind, this guy has worked on Family

27:47

Guy as a voice actor

27:50

for twenty five years

27:53

and he is the voice of Joe Swanson

27:56

on the cartoon Family Guy. And

27:59

he said his parents hate

28:01

it. They do not want him on the show.

28:04

They want the show to be canceled. He claimed

28:06

that his it's because of his parents' backgrounds.

28:09

His father was in a monastery

28:11

for three months. He almost became a monk,

28:14

and he said his mom, when

28:17

he was like thirteen years old, passed out

28:19

pamphlets on the sins of masturbation.

28:22

Pummel him with your powerful fists of female

28:24

fury. They don't like the humor.

28:29

That's great, man

28:32

alive. What else do

28:34

we have? Let's see do

28:36

that, And I think, well, I think we'll

28:39

ended there. I mean there's some other stuff. I think we'll ended there.

28:41

And anything you want to promote, Danny. It is

28:44

Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday,

28:46

got day baseball today, NBA playoffs,

28:49

playoffs, and the final

28:52

day of the NFL Draft.

28:54

We didn't get to.

28:54

Talk about my Raiders selecting

28:57

Bowers and how that means Minshew

28:59

is going to have playing time. So I actually kind

29:02

of like the fact that Bowers fell

29:04

down to thirteen. You know, obviously

29:06

some Raider fans wanted Pennix Junior.

29:09

I even talked about him. But you

29:11

know, after every after the dust settled,

29:13

I was like, well, you know what, Minshew

29:16

with weapons around him.

29:17

I kind of liked that.

29:18

Look at you, you're putting a sugar coat,

29:21

a coat of sugar on the on

29:23

the Raider pick.

29:25

You know, if you weren't able to trade up to get

29:27

Jaden Daniels and reattach

29:29

him to Antonio Pierce. Not

29:31

taking a lineman or like

29:34

an edge guy that would be a bust or something

29:36

like that. I kind of liked that they took the best player

29:38

available.

29:39

Yeah, you took the top tight end in the draft.

29:42

Whether he's good or not, that's a different conversation,

29:44

but at least you got the top tight end.

29:46

I actually like who your rams took

29:48

too, because he also was

29:50

a guy that would have went a lot higher had

29:52

that draft not been chocked full

29:55

of quarterbacks.

29:56

Was it really historically a great quarterback

29:59

draft?

29:59

Though we don't know yet, Well

30:01

know in three years, but.

30:03

I bet your dollars to donuts.

30:05

No history and statistics

30:07

say no.

30:08

Well, three of the guys a couple months

30:10

ago were projected as second or third

30:13

round picks, and they were all drafted in the top

30:15

twelve of the draft.

30:16

I mean, what is that looking

30:18

to hit a Mahomes home run? Yeah,

30:22

my homer.

30:23

As with Mahomes, the people were questioning

30:25

Mahomes when he was drafted, like I

30:27

put up fake stats at Texas

30:29

Tech and he ran a gimmicky offense.

30:32

And yeah,

30:34

anyway, I have a wonderful Saturday.

30:36

We got the mail bag. Mail

30:39

bag on Sunday. We will chat

30:41

with you then later

30:45
