The downbeat on ninety seven to one the Freak. Thirty minutes away from a reason why you should be optimistic about Rangers Astros this afternoon, think you, Mike, I'm giving you the gift to Ginnis the gift Open it in thirty minutes, one hour away from another update on the Oklahoma City Python. Thirteen foot big slytherin albino python just lingering in a trailer park at Oklahoma City. It's taken the nation by storm, top story on all the mainstream media news
channels. You've probably noticed if you've checked in over there. I don't think it is. You're right, but and the most important thing in the world a bit of a cheat code for you to use in your life. Right now, Wake up, your little sleepy head. It's time to get you stupid ass out of bed. About the most Impudn't like this one? That one too long? I like the Vandoliers. Wonder yeah, the most thing. You think the Vandoliers are awake right now? There's no chance still awake.
I don't know they're Josh, their lead singer like took health seriously and quit drinking and runs every day, and his borderline unrecognizable now he's so thin and healthy looking. Okay, yeah, so maybe he's up. Maybe he's doing some uh some resistant resistance band exercises. Bands well, tweetos Vandoliers if you're awake, any of the Vandoliers, if you're awake, that is. Oh yeah, they always told us they're good people. I'm fixing something in
this audio, Danny, you found something. We have a couple of things. There was one of the greatest will of fortune fails of all time involving former NFL running back Rashad Jennings, but from one Jennings to another. Ken Jennings in the news A number that was in has been in Mikey's cell phone for a long time. Yes, I tried to acquire him as our Jay celebrity guest and Danny was in work. Was this also in People magazine? No, right after the Bastards of Soul articles? No, this, uh,
this popped up. I believe he was doing an interview with some sixty minutes or seeing in It was some I can't remember the guy's name, but it looked like a nice sit down with Ken Jennings because I guess he's kind of part time hosting. He's full time now full time about to drop home girls. Yeah okay, okay, well that must be the relevance of this, but yeah, he uh, he kind of gave the secret to winning at Jeopardy on national television and now on the internet read books. No,
that's not necessarily about how much you know. It's how quick you can get in, and he gave you a hack on how to do it. All right, JJ, we cring me up here. This is Ken Kenneffer Jennings. Yeah, it's often the key to the game. We find smart people and everybody there could pass the same difficult test to be there, and that means often the margin of victory is just reflexes. And it's tricky. You can't, as you know, you can't buzz as soon as you know the
correct response. You have to wait for the host to finish reading the question that the clue. At that point the buzzers are activated, and if you buzz early, you get locked out, and of course if you're too late, you get beat by your competitors. So there's a very narrow window you're
trying to find. Rhythms of the host's voice are very important, and I almost think that was my secret sauce coming into Jeopardy, as I had been watching Alex since I was ten years old, and I knew how he would say every clipped syllable in the clue I was reading, and then I knew what the what the rhythm would be, WHOA okay dude. So I knew that there was a strategy involved when it came to buzzing in. I did not know that if you buzzed too early that you were absolutely locked out,
like you have to wait until he finishes the question. Yeah, And I guess that's why they put the question up in print on the screen. The question in full is on the screen. Correct. Well, I don't think it is for them. You don't think it is for them. I don't know. And that's one of the flaw not flaws, but inconsistencies of Jeopardy. When you're playing at home, you could read ahead, and there's another
percentage of the illusion that you you would do well at this. If you're just listening, it's a lot harder than if you can also read ahead. We obviously can read ahead, yeah, as he's saying the question, But I don't, I don't know. I don't think so I don't think they can either. Yeah, I agree, and that makes that's a big differen friends. Okay, let me. I always thought a big part of it was getting lucky on your category draw. You can only be an expert in
so many things. Like Claven got lucky because it's amazing beer and us male. He was on Jeopard, and he's like Cliff Clavin was a character of the Cheers years ago. Because you do see even the person that wins or dominates, you do see them go silent for a category or two if they just absolutely no knowledge the French literature. Jesus, I just nailed some history, but it's gonna be tough. Just set this one out and I won't hurt myself on it, but I'm gonna read this. I just found a
category Welcome to Miami, Mike, you should know about Miami. Here. I do. I know everything about Miami by looking at me. Okay, without seeing it? How quick can you answer it? In the five seconds needed? The easiest one. The Gold Coast Railroad Museum boasts the train from which this president held a paper telling of his nineteen forty eight election defeat. Uh Truman? Who is Truman? I've already buzzed in and won a million dollars. Yeah, because I was. You would have. Really, why
aren't you playing the dinger? It won't show me the thing out, Kevin? It was Truman correct? But I know, okay when Dewey whooped him. Get you ready, I don't know what we're doing. Miami has the USA's largest cruise terminal serving this cruise line named for a nearby sea. Danny Carnival. No, Dan Caribbean, Caribbean correct. I would have accepted Royal too. You guys just haven't heard of the Carnival sea. I did think
Carnival quickly, obviously. The question eliminated that. Welcome to Miami for six hundred. Don't look to crash with this Miami heat legend and wife Gabrielle Union Dang Mike, who is Duyane Wade? Correct? But he buzzed in early? Now you can't he's locked out. Yeah, that's true, he can buzz in. No, you can't wait for you to finish the question around. Yeah, locked out if we're doing Jeopardy rules. That was the whole point of this is you get locked out if you hit your buzzer before Alex
or Ken is done talking. Oh my god, I know that's what makes it hard, because if you know it, you're I think your your natural instinct would be and just start thumbing the button. Yeah right, kylee Ocho or Southwest eighth Street, eighth Street, Kyocho. Little Havana ding is the main thoroughfare of this area, home to many exiles. Mike Dang, Little Havanah Dang. The brickhel section of town has one end of the tsunami trail two hundred and sixty four miles away. The other end is naturally in this
city. Wow Dang, I think he got in before the buzzer key West Tampa Bay. Damn it to take your eight hundred dollars, give it to me. You are now a negative four hundreds. After all that, Dingy is winning. You're sitting there, just sitting and waiting. Then, ding did you find the Yeah, the categories I'm saving categories. Sure, give me the give me the deal. He needs cord homie. Oh oh oh, okay, hand it, I'm gonna need it back. In audio, we only have one there you go, I forbid we have another. Uh.
This is the popular television show Cheers. I don't remember Cliff Claven, who loved stamp collecting, got on the show and he needed to get lucky with the categories. And here you go, and I know they have Woody and Norm. George went in the crowd saying something, all right, are we doing it for talking? We have taken our program out on location. And if you weren't in the historically it's a special day for Boston, Massachusetts. We have three new contestants with us today, one of them at least
very eager to show how bright he is. So let's get right to it. Players. Good luck. I think when they introduced Cliff he was he told everyone so excited to show everyone how bright he is, which is a great one sentence that you get to introduce yourself. I'm going to play the first round of Jeopardy, and here are the categories for you, civil servants, stamps from around the world, mothers and sons, beer bar, trivia,
and finally celibacy. That's outstandings, edible complex. He's always talking about his mom too. And they show Cliff his eyes widened, and then they cut to Woody and Norm and there they look at each other like we got a chance here, mister Claven's dream board here, he's free as long as let's get lift. Could I get you to pick a category under the mount? Why don't you go ahead and pick anyone you want? I mean, I am feeling lucky today. Amazing, that's really good. Forty That show
is really funny and smart and all this stuff. Yeah, I don't if you're not doing miss cheers ing and finally celibacy and he's like thumbs up, high five bar trivia. Now we also have an element of fun from Will of Fortune, and then it was a celebrity edition. It looks like they've got some NFL running backs, including former Giant running back Rashad Jennings. Here's thirty eight the board on Will of Fortune. It's hard to doing radio.
You have to explain, but the board, the category's rhyme time and all but one letter is filled out on the board. Yeah, the board says the puzzle is effing solved. Driving to Reno with blank Tarantino and on Quentin Tarantino's name, it's everything but the Q. It's blank, U, E and T I n okay. So driving to Reno with blank Winton Tarantino pretty easy. Rashaw Jennings is up. I wish I could help, I really do. But if why you can buy some time by spending number Clinton,
Plinton, Yeah, Plint and dared. Okay, I can see how Rashaud Jennings might not have ever heard of Quentin, has never heard of him in his life. Boy, that feels like you'd come across that name. Yeah times, and even the name you're looking at it it says with so you know it's a name, yeah in Quentin Quintin. Like, are there's Quentin's in the NFL. Yes, it's not like it's and has a I mean
it's an unusual name, but not not the most unusual. Well maybe you haven't seen it, but certainly the majority of people that are aware of film have heard of pulp fiction. Yeah right, yeah, I mean how young is he is? He he's thirty eight? Yeah, so not it'll be tough. He was born in eighty five. Still, I'm feeling like pulp fiction have been tough. He would have been nine probably didn't you know, we've been tough one. But the point is there's some Commlinton base knowledge that
I think you just acquire from existing. It may just show you how isolated from pop culture and that part of the world that athletes are man isolated from names. There's not another name with you in t I N Quinton. We have Quentin Williams and Quaen Richardson, and I mean there's athletes that have that name. Yeah, Pin, I gotta go. How about while the wheel sping, He's looking up there like I got no idea, I have no
clue. He's taking down at the discarded letters. A former Viking, Jared Allen, the defensive end, was one of the other guys too, and he didn't appear to want any of that either. Jared Allen have his mullet, Yeah sixty nine Jersey pat. I mean he could have had. Like the final thought someone gave him as he, you know, left for the studio was like, hey, just don't don't take Q. They're under no circumstance pick letter Q. It's not really gonna help you. That's a good
that's a really good point. I didn't think about that, Like there's a handful letter like if you don't even barely know the game, Yeah, look, don't take this cues like there his roommates trying to give him strategy to help you. Here's what where it was, He's pretty good though, jolly pop goo and the last letters and then fellow, okay, jolly goo fellow, jolly goof fellow. I know they are jolly good fellow. Yeah, yeah there is jolly fellow. Yeah, there you go. How that sounded
like a little kid answering? Is it a girl the first one? Yeah, a girl that was a woman. It was, yes, jolly goof fellow on the spot decision, it would be decision, would be the word you need on the spot on the spot decision. Yeah, that's it. That's it. Pat's a sweetheart. That last guy, he's he had like all bad like everything was set up for him, like throughout the whole show,
and every time misspelled it. It's like the college edition. I think that one was he said Achilles Achili like he was I got that one. Yeah, good idea. Yeah, mythological hero Atos okay, also yeah, mythological hero Achilles. Yeah that's it. Yeah, that's mispronunciation. And it's the pause and he's yeah, we can't like he's said, he look, I you kind of did it. You put me in this corner. This one I have no choice but to say no. This one is booking my
sure excursion. That's a tough one. Not a common thing. You would say, really, cruise talk booking my sure excursion. I'd like to solve the puzzle boozing my shore excursion. No, uh excursion, no boozing, Josh, I'd like to solve the puzzle booking my shore excursion. Yeah that's it. Yeah, that's it. The same response after a fail. Yeah, that's it. I like, but the guy doesn't know the rules.
This guy calls a letter before he spins. Okay, yeah, there is a k pick up that prize six thousand dollars CASHMA friends with bankruet yea that goes down there. Plus you have five hundred dollars cash. What do you want to do? I would like to call a n Well, you need to If you're going to do that, you need to spin first. Oh, we have rules here and uh and we had to ask you spind and we have to hold you to the end and of as you realized that and
had been called. So all that was what we call your moot point. Is that right? That's entertaining, like a job, waste time. I was entertaining. I go one more. This is one. It turns out that the contestants gay and he didn't know it. California a post production. Yeah, yeah, so you engaged. Some woman has agreed to marry you. Some gentlemen wrong again, but he cracked himself up. Wrong again. Oh man, again, some woman has agreed to marry you. Some gentlemen
wrong again, need to marry you? Some gentlemen wrong again? But I had a fifty fifty. Okay, it's all right, and I messed up. Well, yeah, you like to gamble. You like the Gamble'll get us out of it, like the gamble. Have one more it is? That sounds crazy?

Imagine that you start a bar and wherever their first one was, it was a harder bar on Lower Greenville Green way back in the day, and then you figure out, you learn from mistakes, whatever, and you just start opening up more bars while moving north with the migration of humanity to North
Texas. Like I'm they're geniuses, right, but also but also just born at the right time, like lucky with what they were good at and the amount of people coming here the Midas touch yeah, and they just have these British pubs and they go to Addison and then they go to Plane Oh, and they keep kind of moving north with the people and crushing it with all these damn bars.
