We have been recognized officially by the cities of Cerritos and Irvine. We have shared our radio time with countless city council people, mayors, oc supervisors. You hobknob with the mayor and spoke to the City of Long Beach dignitaries that the port the port I was hand delivered an award by an at the time state Senator Janet and Wyn. We got connections, we know people, we got pulling this. You were the surfer of the month, Matts, exactly right. I mean you didn't want to say that. I didn't.

I mean you were the surfer of the month.

Yeah, I did. I do have a declaration a surfer of distinction.

Put it on the wall. Yeah, pose by it. Okay, I'll leave my football stuff at home.

Let's make this happen. Let's I mean this, Let's really do this, Kates, Let's make the push. I looked up our legislators. All right, let's make boison Berry the official state pie of California. It's our berry. The impact of knots Berry Farm on our community. Tony Strickland is the thirty six Senatorial District State Senator. Assembly Woman Sharon cork Silva is the assembly person.

Of support from the Boyson family, the not family, and probably the people that went.

Apart, right, Like, this is easy for us. This is a cause that we should get behind. There is one of the reasons. Poisonberry pie the pie of the California, California, the California state pie pie. Right. Not every state has a state pie, but enough.

Have the Arizona State pie. Because Revenge of the Nurse was shot at Arizona State is just that naked chick. That's my pie.

Right, Let's make this happen.

I mean it feels like a good idea, but I don't really see where it gets us anywhere.

Like we're responsible for a state pod.

I mean, where does the Surfer of the month really get you at the end of the day.

That's what I'm saying. Let's let's lean on it.

Man. I don't know.

Man, you got connections at the Long Beach Port and you have a relationship with the mayor of Long Beach.

They got nothing. Come on, Long Beach has nothing to do with Buena Park. No, but I'm running for reelection. What is your platform? I'm the one. They've got them.

They got the Boys, and you know, Walter Not was.

Kind of a I mean, not not nefarious, but he was undercover. I mean the boys and farm had fallen into disrepair, and Walter Not crept onto the farm and and got some clippings and ate his own boys. And Mary's so kind of an interesting situation made it relevant.

He did, you know we got the bear on the flag, the California poppies, the state flower. Let's go with a state pie, boys and Mary uniquely Californian.

I know the two state songs for Colorado.

That's what I read.

It's time for quick hits. Everybody somedms quick hits. I'll make it quick, y'all. Oh yeah, Kate's left. He's going to go visit the Burbank assembly. There we go. You sent him, make it happen. Kate's Dodgers are twenty and nine. They're at home tonight, first pitch at sevent ten. O Taani on the mound, not hitting tonight, nut hitting second time this season. He will not not do both. Hey, how about those Phillies nine and nineteen, off to their

All right, son, I guess I'll do it fine, but you're gonna have to pay me full salary. Now, this is in some BS bench coach interim number.

Full vote, Matt. The Lakers don't play again until tomorrow.

Yeah, that certainly benefited them.

Austin. Yeah, I wonder who made that schedule.

They got three days off in between and guess what up three to one. That has given them enough time to get Austin reeveese right. He is going to play. Been out just about a month with that great two oblique strain. Luca's still not ready, but they now have the Oklahoma City Thunder who swept the Phoenix Suns waiting for them. They'd probably like to get this done sooner than later, or maybe not. Maybe maybe drag it out to a game six and see whether or not, or a game seven. Probably not.

Oh, drag it all the way out. See what now, you guys are fine, you're in control in.

Order to get Luca beck Yes, Tim, do you really want to drag it out when you only have one day between the next game six?

And drag it out? Drag it out? Noah, you're right enough time. Oh no, drag it out, drag it.

Out, finish him off. Austin Reeves is back, and man, they're going to take down the Thunder. Just you watch.

I believe i'd be forced to.

Uh.

Former NBA player and assistant coach Damon Jones became the first person to plead and friend of lebron a full fol.

Oh in a high fashion NBA or.

Tuesday, in a gambling sweep that led to the arrest of more than thirty people, including reputed mobsters and other basketball figures. He entered a guilty plea to a single kind of conspiracy commit wire fraud. Reading a prepared statement to the court, Damon Jones acknowledged that he conspired with others to the fraud sports betting companies by using insider information that I obtained as a result of my relationships as a former player. For sure. How far would you

Take the fall. I'm worth a billion dollars.

Okay, got it? You got it? Boss?

You and them reputed mobsters? We do? Are they mobsters? Not only are they mobsters, they are reputed mobsters.

Yes, and some of them might even be Russian. Boston Magazine Today came out with the top one hundred and fifty most influential people in Boston, Okay, and number one on their list was Drake May. Boston Magazine is gay for men.

It makes sense. I mean Drake Mays quarterback and went to the Super Bowl good looking young man.

And the old salami smuggler Mike Rabel, whoa no mentioning the magazine of Rabel serving up that puzzo in Sedona, Arizona, in one of those.

Vor Texas, in a Vegas casino and a Tribeca bar. Did you see the did you see the thing from Robert Griffin the third today? Oh, this ain't gonna get no attention.

Uh, it's getting a lot of attention. Sure, if you've been been watching here, you're worried about Megan v Stallion? About why ain't y'all worried about this?

If this seems that, are.

You saying that we're reverse racist?

Cosiderably more attention than the Megan the Stallion or this little cheating. It seems like this one. I don't know if you saw the the pictures of him just shopping for a baby blue sweatsuit in Salt Lake City Airport so they could further the story.

Apology gift coming up at seven, Game five at Edmonton, the Ducks and the Arlers. Ducks are up three to one with a chance to close out the series tonight, but it's not gonna be easy with all those Canadians all those Canucks. They might not like that.

Yeah, I think uh Connor McDavid beat up might not go. Don't know if that's been made game time, game time decision, but boy oh boy, I can only hope that our new boss has the same vision as our old boss and we get sent down to an empty lot.

Right, Yeah, it makes sense. Once they make a run to get down there, we might have to be edging out the fan or the beast or something for that exactly.

The fan might get down beat us to it. We don't want to give them any in.

Elijah Renas is standing s. See that's good for our guy, the Musclow.

Yeah, he did the whole put my name in. Ask some folks. See what they say, and they said go back. So you got the nil era helping that cause where you make a bunch of money. Only seventy one players enter the twenty twenty six NBA Draft for the NBA. That is down from one hundred and six last year, and in twenty twenty one it was three hundred and sixty three. It is the lowest early entrant total since

And hey guys, hey guys, I think we screwed up this Simpson thing. We got to push somebody out there to talk them up.

Elijah Ran now college basketball, the NBA draft, I should say the latest to you'd probably say benefit you end up getting more information and more of an evaluation on these guys.

Well, they've let them, they've let them declare and then go back for a while. But absolutely right now there's really something to go back to above the table.

Well.

The IFAB International Football Association Board today announced that the upcoming World Cup players who cover their mouths when confronting an opponent will be sent off the field with a red card at the discretion of a competition organizer. Any player covering their mouth in a confrontational situation when an opponent may be sanctioned with a red card. So you can't cover your mouth, yeah, I guess, I guess you just have to say it with your face, stand up and say it with your chest.

Let's just get back to biting your hand as an insult or skin in your chin.

Let's get back to that bite my thumb at you, that kind of thing exactly. Well, good luck to all the competitors involved with international soccer, and we'll be back with more Petroussed buddy, the top story of the day. Matt wants to talk more football, and that's what we're gonna do. This is petros and Money to man demand. Thanks for listening, everybody. It's Petrosen Money on AM five seventy La Sparts. We got Dead and Alive coming up on this too at mono Tuesday, and then we'll get

The you know, not to not to pat ourselves on the back, but to pat ourselves on the back. Uh. We were all over this on Friday, and these guys they just can't they can't keep it simple. Man, So many folks were doing the man. Sean McVay has pissed. They took a QB. He's so pissed.

Look at him.

He wants to win a Super Bowl and he's gonna retire. And Less really fed him on this one. And because we're here in La, because we've lived through it since they.

Returned, even Hanstein said he fell for it. Yeah.

Well, you know, sometimes you're so inside the circle you can't see. You can't see, you can't see the forest with the trees coaching so mad. We have seen how the rams have operated on a day to day basis under the guide of Kevin dem Off, and it's just trying so hard to do things that don't need to be that hard. There is so much cringe attached to it, so much unneeded effort put into things that don't need anything. It's just it's simple.

It's not hard.

It's a draft pick. It's not a big deal. And look, I get it. They're good. The Rams are really freaking good. They have won a Super Bowl. They are Super Bowl favorites going into seasons nearly every single year. They made the NFC Championship Game last year, had a chance to win that game in the final five minutes. You got You know, they're good. They're really good on the football field, which is why it's so crazy that they just can't

When you dress them up in like a white dingy Beastie Boys intergalactic planetary jumpsuit and stuck with that uniform for however long, I mean, that's unfortunate.

I mean the original RAM uniforms helmet typically sided at worst at worst as top five in the league. Ever since, the Colorado State gets no run for their Ram. They're great colors, and that's the thing.

Pe On White you know from back on the La Rams day the Blue Price, we.

Were great, and then they go and then they went to what blue and gold. You know what the Rams call it now, roy Allen Soul, Royal and Soul Soul. Yes for the sun because of the Mexicans. Uh, they launched, as you mentioned, bone not white. We're gonna call it bone because we're bad to the bone. And then everyone pointed out it looked like dirty laundry.

It wasn't white. No, it was white after many washes with everybody else's clothes of the family.

They ran a gradient on their numbers because they said it mimicked the iconic California on set, and then in the video they shared how they used a Fibonacci sequence to come up with it.

I remember this, Yeah, he talked a lot about this. Yes, and they ditched the patch. And then you don't need to try that hard to sell it. No, Well, you ain't gonna lie to kick it, as they say.

Just do what they did in nineteen eighty six and you'll have one of the three best uniforms in football. It was so easy. And then they could not help themselves with the Hollywood thing. Last year's schedule a release featuring social media superstar Brenda song. It was so awkward and fell so flat. No different than the rebel Wilson Rams house.

Hey, I'll sit here and listen to you criticize a lot of people, but that deflated lesbian Australian comedian. When I see her awkward smile, I think of one thing, the Rams professional football and excellence and the glitz and glamour of Hollywood I don't remember, and them coming together. I don't remember if you were calling that game.

I like him with Keenan Thompson and the Jonas Brother with Jordan Peel and I did one with keen right. It was Keenan Thompson and the Jonas Brother.

And they came out and did like a kicking skit that would that fell very flat. It's terrible between quarters.

Just bring out the USC band and let him play. How about just five minutes? Don't do anything? Yeah, don't do that. Like Less Snead, he's not a good he's a great GM. He drafts his ass off. He's been great in free agency. Yes there's misses, but that's every team you're going to miss. But he's drafted Jared Verse and Braden Fisk and Kobe Turner and Byron Young and Oby Lah and Puka and Kyron Williams. In the fifth they draft really really well, they trade really well. Matt

Just say it.

Don't say ecosystems, say our team.

Everybody knows about the three e's of organization, Matt, echopacy, ecosystem and efficacy.

And he's performing at a high level. How about you say that less equity, he's earning playing time. Is that that hard? Just say those three things our team instead of ecosystems Matt.

You know, football people like to use fancy words.

And now this is the latest and we had it. These guys are just playing some stupid game that doesn't need to be played. Less drafted ty Simpson because Sean mc liked him and Less liked him, and it worked out because Less likes his dad and knows his dad. And McVeigh was fine with Ty Simpson because he fits into the box that Kyle Shanahan likes. With the mac Jones and the brock parties, they reached for it. They kind of blew it a little bit because there was

No, it was great.

You know, we met at the facility and it was something to where, you know, we just talked for hours, talking about hours, and it was just football, was his straight football, and it was like a kid in the candy store. You know, we're me and him are sitting there and you know we're just going back and forth, just you know we we can you can tell the obsession he has for the game, and you can tell the uh, you know, the love he has for quarterback play.

Met with Sean McVeigh for hours. It went well. They told me not to share it, that they wanted to keep it secret so as not to raise a flag to others that the Rams wanted to coach this kid up and maybe they wouldn't be able to after him. And that's the press conference we got, and that's the damage control that we got from Sean McVay the next day about Matthew Stafford's feelings and he just dug the hole deeper and he's twisting something that didn't need to

Wait a minute, and I want to hear five minutes of Shreger, but I need it to where it looks like his face is one inch from mine.

Yes, and then following that up so as not to let him have the upper hand in the McVeigh sneed relationship. And far be it from me to push back on dan Orlovsky and any sort of football analysis. So I know it's stupid of me to even to try.

Oh come on, Matt, it has to top you before. This is just too much. Everyone who's saying the Rams should have taken wide receiver, Okay, the average rookie wide receiver right now over the last ten years in the first round comes in gives you fifty two catches.

And four touchdowns.

If you think the Rams are fifty.

Two catches and four touchdowns away from a wide receiver from going to the Super Bowl and winning it.

You're out of your mind.

It is one of the stupidest things I have ever heard somebody in football utter to say that you're out of your mind. To collect the average statistics from receivers in their rookie season over ten years, it felt a bit like a reach, not accounting for something you always

These are the same guys that drafted Puka Nakua and I think he had one hundred and five catches his rookie.

There you go, exactly. So that's sort of the perfect example p one hundred plus catches his rookie year to this circumstance, to this organization.

I mean, it just seems like it's somebody trying to find a stat to support their argument exactly. But what I would say, Matt, and I don't know if this screws up the story or not. And I don't know, but I no one else was going to draft that guy. There who cares? Like, why did they go through all this?

Exactly?

And that's that's like, no matter what Orlovsky said the last two months on TV, the only team that was going to draft this guy in the first round, not to say he's not going to be good or anything, but the only team that was going to draft him was the freaking Rams.

Yeah, and they did, and they panicked and took him at thirteen for whatever reason. It just said all you have to do is go into that presser, be excited and say, you know what, we love him, we think he's going to be We we want Matt to play forever, but in case he can't, we think this guy is going to be great.

Yeah, you can be like you can be like Hurley and you Khan. You can be like Danny Hurley and say, hey, I've won championships, won three champions I've been to three Final four. I mean he and he says I have equity. McVeigh has plenty of equity. So to Sneed, why why the whole right? Why the charade?

And that's why Lesneed had to go on freaking McAfee's show for a half hour today and I'm not going to play any of that because it's intolerable. I just feel so bad that, you know, Ty had to go through the charade and play the game and and a lot of people, and you know, that just kind of hurts me.

And shut up. Why'd you do it? Then?

Just just freaking draft the guy? So what big deal? People say it's a stupid pick and you reach for him, say, yeah, we reached for him, but you know what, we like him, And it's you're out of your mind.

You're out of your mind. I'm get out of your mind. You're out of your mind, Get out of your mind.

I mean, it was a real total one out of your mind. I'm gonna I'm gonna do the McVeigh loves him. This is a mcvaye decision. What are you gonna do? I'm gonna do the Ty Simpson. And you know, the long term is so much more important than the short term impact of a Super Bowl. Yeah, never mind that the arguably the most important player on the offensive line of the Seahawks was Gray's Abel, a rookie, and the most important player on defense was em and Ory, the

Listen, Matt, I think you underestimate the need and the desperation and the absolute obsession with washing mcvay's balls these guys have. Yeah, so they'll twist themselves into multiple pretzels to make it work.

You know, we just we wanted to keep it between us. You know, it's gamesmanship, it's part of it. The exact is he stayed on script. Poor guy stayed on script. Felt really bad for ty?

Shut up?

God damn.

Yeah. Just draft an edge guy, a well spoken edge guy from Miriam. That's what you do. You mind, We'll be right back with your dad and a live guy birth the other day. Get out of your mind. Sho Hey, Toni choe Hey is pitching tonight? Who's gonna play short stop that song?

Southern California's most listened to sports talk show.

On demand. We never give up. We're always there fighting for freedom, over Landing Air, The Petrosen Money Show, Big Old Dodgers, Marlin Tonight Night, Let's play ball. It's game day, strike out, base hit, double play. It's happening tonight and we're all looking forward to it. We will be back on tomorrow, but it'll be a late show because the Dodgers start early, so they will play twice before Matt

My name is Blossom Deary. This is my second trip to Paris. The first time I came over here, I worked with Jack. We did a television show and a few radio shows. And this time I'm working at a charming little club called Le Catavon, and I hope that you all come to him.

Me.

Blossom Dearie, a great jazz singer and beautiful soul of cafe culture in what Matt loves to refer to as the Big Time. They named her Blossom because while I was her middle name, because the day she was born, a neighbor brought a bunch of peach blossoms over as a gift. I was exposed to this type of music through my father's restaurant and various cassette tapes that were on a rack next to the cash register in the back. Anyway,

Yeah, Swingle Sisters. You're my kind of lady.

Oh right. You know a lot of famous people are really into swingling and people don't know about put.

A pineapple on my front.

There. There's all kinds of different websites. Let's go, And I think it was just in reference to the you know type of music, but you ever know, are you talking about the Venice Duos?

Right, MSUs Robin put a pineapple on her door.

Well, she got tired of swinging Matt and as she went solo. Her first solo album came out and it was just a lot like Nina Simone. She would just played piano on it. It was instrumental. And in the late fifties she came back from France and signed with Verve in New York and did six solo records and

Who are you married to a Belgian?

A Belgian floutest? You don't say, hey, Matt. He also played sac She died in two thousand and nine. She would have been one hundred and one years old today. Blossom Dearie a great artist to look up, very very wonderful mood music. If you want to have a you know, a house that feels like you're in a small Paris cafe. And that's what we're all about the Pettersen Money Show. We're not into swingling, Matt, No, okay, We're just into

You're a live guy, talk about carving out a niche or a niche. Happy seventy first to Edward Jobson, Keys and violinist, Mercenary for hire, Studio musician stud prog Rock Royalty and it's British News.

Time for PMS, British News, United Kingdom English News. It's time for British news. Cheerio's up straight gets out.

Eddie Jobson born in Billingham, stuck in tees, got onto the piano at seven, added violin when he was eight, Classically trained, earned a diploma of Distinction from the Royal Academy of Music when he was nine, one of these child prodigies. By twelve, he was playing in the local orchestra. At sixteen, he applied to study at university the Royal Academy, but was denied a spot for being too young, so he joined the band called Fat Grapple now Fat Now

Right.

And then like I said, yes, owner of a lonely heart, much better than Oh. And then TV comes and gets some p and what does he do? He scores every episode ever produced of nash Bridges.

R Man. I mean that that was with it right. That was a great era for the city of San Francisco, right around the same era that Charmed was what a time in the city.

I mean, come on, guys, do we think nash Bridge is gonna go?

Well?

You know, we got on and I don't know if you know this, but we got Eddie Jobson to score every episode. I mean, he was in Zappa's band. This is kind of cool. His final live performance was with Roxy Music when they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Played the Barclay Center for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction concert, and when Roxy Music was inducted, our man Eddie Jobson, became the only violinist ever inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

You mean there's only one.

Violinist, that's it.

I was like, I was thinking, like, I guess it'd be kind of hard.

Maybe the guy in the Dexi's Midnight Runners, you know, playing there at the start on the fiddle.

Somebody ran around with Vana Morrison for the astral Weeks album. I mean, you know that's one of the top five of all time.

Right, And I guess they just weren't a member of the band like our guy was.

Cal Hartman. He'll get to the bottom a bit about it. We hope you have a great night, everybody enjoy it. We will have Dodgers Marlins Otani on the mound, as we said, but not gonna hit Tim Kats coming up next with Marongo casino. Dodgers on deck, hanging there. Everybody, we're coming back out a road.
