Transcript

It's the Downbeat. On ninety seven to one, the freak world premiere of a new song from Silver Skylarks, That is Danny and Skin's new project Songs written by Danny, but the single will be released on Friday. Uh correct, So it's a co write. Actually, I composed it in Skin definitely had some some songwriting input on it. And we'll give you the dates and how he can hang out with us Danny's Skin. I know I'll be there

probably both nights at least at the Kessler on Friday night. We'll give only some tickets to this during the Ben and Skin Show a little bit later, so we'll give you those details at nine o'clock and we'll premiere Danny's new song. Also, Derek Clively will be on the Ben and Skin Show today at one thirty. The very very nice and funny seems kind of funny. Derek

Clively can't believe he's only twenty. They interviewed him, he gave him the mic court side when he was, you know, injured on the bench, and what a great kid, what a great interview, and dude, he just sounded like a thirty year old, you know, sounded like a veteran sharp dude, Mike, do we have an update on the satellite Europe satellite? What are you saying over there on the tracker? Well, like the

little picture of the satellite hasn't moved at all. We are thinking nine to forty one Central time, which puts us one hour and two minutes from right now. Is that's a prediction, of course, just an estimate. We're trying to figure out where ERS two, the uncontrolled re entry of a satellite, where it's going to land. My models are showing it not putting anyone in our metroplex in any sort of danger. But the truth is, you

don't know what's gonna happen in the satellite. So it is making landfall over a Cascadia and southern Canada, maybe even southern Alaska right there on the west west portion of North America. But yeah, I don't know. Man. We are about an hour away from the best guests, We were well within a window of possible landing. We will we will track this. Hell yeah,

we're gonna keep an eye squarely on this satelle for right now. Advanced hair restoration brings us the scuttle butt particular care watching the track pretty much every of to day. I don't care. It's an uncontrollable re entry man. Okay, uh, quick, quickly on the first one, is this a family feud? Not yet he does that one. Yesterday we did the story on the sixteen year old kid at Pioneer Technology and Arts Academy and mesquite remember

he brought the gun to school. Three officers showed up, fired their weapons. The kid went to the hospital stable condition. He was in the office by himself, wouldn't drop the gun. The officers fired at him, and which I was like, okay, but weird. They would not even confirm if he was shot or not. Well, we learned last night the exact number of gun shots fired, and I have questions when the kid wouldn't drop the gun in the office down, put your gun down, He wouldn't drop

it. The three officers fired a total of nineteen shots at him with the goal of putting holes in him. I don't know from what range did they hit him. They said the shots were constrained to inside the office. They would not they did confront the student never fired his weapon, and they said the student's leg was wounded, but police said it was unclear if he was shot or if he was struck by shrapnel, to which I'm like, were they just bad shots? A lot of questions now, I'm sure they weren't

trying to Are we shooting through one of these double pane windows. Yeah, school's got a lot of this, So you had to go pole to break through the double pain Yeah, maybe because he got the door locked, but they said it was constrained to the office. The shots were that happened were in the office. I'm imagining my old principal's office. But I bet you were in there a lot. Kevin Jesus not so much pretty good kidding,

Yeah so much. Yeah, if I was, I was in there like just like I was involved in some group thing and I was just, you know, innocent bystander. God, that place sucked. Can I tell you an inadvertent trick I pulled to get out of trouble in the principal's office fake like hat. No, it was inadvertent, and I feel guilty about it to this day. Really, yes, and I was in because But I will also give this as a tip if needs to use it. I mean,

my dad was awesome. He never laid a hand. I was than spanking the hell out of my butt with his boat shoe pretty hard, but never like anything more than that as far as like aggressive anything. But he would get really mad and it was really scary. And I was in my principal's office and I got in trouble and he's like, I'm gonna have to call your parents when I have to play prods. And I said, please, don't call my parents. My dad, that is a bit of an

overreactor. And I promise even at the time, I meant it as I meant it in my head, which in my head was true, Like he's gonna freak on me and I'm gonna be in a lot of trouble. Oh well, within very good parenting is what I You know, now, I understand Daddy hurts me. That's I didn't mean that. I felt well. I didn't feel bad at the time, because he slowly lowered the handle of the phone. After Daddy drinks from the bottle with the ship on it, the ship boy, he saw he hurts me. No, please, I

feel I told you I felt bad about it. I didn't mean it, but you didn't think I wouldn't pounce on me accidentally. Incredibly good play, and he refrained from calling the phoks. Yeah, you put the he put the phone down, and he paused, and I don't remember exactly what the commerce would do better, son, Yeah, he told you to do better. My dad's a bit of an overreactor, yes, and I'm I meant it, but not like that. The principal went home feeling better about himself

too, knowing that he might have saved you from danger. Yeah. Yeah, I was never in and I would like to be crystal clear. And then my parents were both awesome, and spankings were so deserved, every single one that I took in my life, and never a hand on me in any other way. I wonder if wild Bill was treated differently, we would he would show up at the school, because you know, the principals telling all the other teachers that was probably his job to the school. He's a

boat racer. Let's keep an eye on those those bald headed little young man beautiful blonde hair. Sure there's not any unnecessary bruising. Okay, god stop, because I mean want to picture someone thinking that of my dad. But I planted that. Yeah, you implied it definitely in advertently on accident. You aren't implying it intentionally. That's how he received it, and later on he thought, oh that's what he and I felt. I still feel guilty about it. I mean, I'm okay, it's not seriously, not often,

but yeah, the accidental implication. All right, So hey, advice throw your parents under the bus for being abusers, and you two can get up, get out of a paddling. It all works out. So we know. Nineteen shots were fired, nineteen and they only got him once to pay off on the tees. And a thirty four year old man in Colorado has been confirmed dead after he was bitten by one of his two pet blank ducks. No ducks barrets, no, no, but you said. This

is the first death from this animal in nineteen thirty. Okay, HeLa monster, correct, Danny, Oh it is hel a monster. I HeLa. They are venomous, but the bites usually aren't fatal fatal. They usually just cause a lot of swelling. Of course, shod the blood from the BikeE mark. Last human death from a Helo monster was in nineteen thirty. Now they're the largest lizards in the country, about twenty two inches long. This one was at juvie twelve inches just twelve inches and it bit him and he

died. Now some that it's not confirmed yet. Some think he had in allergic reaction. Oh yeah, poison, which I still think should count. Yeah, I think you should go on their tally. But a big day for Helo monsters is they racked one up. It's illegal to own them without a license. It's interesting that first death since nineteen thirty. Yeah, because I live in Arizona for a while and there is some some Helo monster concern

as you're traversing the evil eden of the Sonoran Desert. Yeah, like you kind of have the HeLa monster in your head if I come across from these things and it probably just just has monster. Definitely, it's it's monsters way more intimidating than HeLa right, Oh it's the HeLa. Is that the only animal with monster in its name? Well? Cookie, okay, Cookie, Yeah, I think that's real though. I mean sea monster that's generic and

nothing, rather than the great Land Monster, the HeLa monster. You think the friendly Helo monsters just showed up and checked the board to find out what his name was gonna be and put his little finger up. He's like, what the jayla this is gonna get they're gonna hate me. Monster who puts that in there? We're nice, We're nice. This venom is for our own protection. We're not trying to it's defense. The guy also had some tranch that he owned. Animal that bit the man will be transported to a

lab at the University of Northern Colorado. They're gonna extract the venom. I don't know how you do that. They're gonna extract the venom, and then they're gonna find out a little bit more why this bite was so fatal? Was it this one a little Did this particular helo monster have a little more stronger venom than others? Have you ever seen rattlesnakes get their venom extracted? I've seen it less than three feet from me. Do you have in the milking of a rattler? Really? Yeah? Why? Why I was at

the Sweetwater Rattlesnake round up? Oh? Hell yeah, don't look surprised, I'm not. I didn't mean to. Well. I remember when my junior high coach, who was actually the high school coach, is that he was leaving. I gotta go, and he liked me, so I was like, Hey, I got a chance to be quarterback. Maybe I don't like. We'll see I'm leaving guys, going to Sweetwater, and I've hated Sweetwater ever since he left. One of the great Kent Jackson left to go to

Sweetwater. Oh, he went there to coach, He went there to he went to the Rattlesnake round Up. Yeah, I know. He was probably the star of the round up each you're good, coach. I've eaten rattlesnake at the Rattlesnake roundough fresh yeah, fresh, freshly deep fried snake sushi. It's a pain in the ass. Yeah, it's all stuck to their little rib cage bone and you got to pull a piece off, and I guess

it's fine foods. Did they grab the sides of the rattlesnak's face and forces jaws over the rubber bang jar rubber band around the side of the tiny mason milk it, Yeah, and just give me that juice. That stuff is round like super valuable scorpion venom. Yes, something's really among the most expensive liquids in the world because you can do it like add it to your weed and what do you I'm just waiting for the family feud music to come on.

Milk printer, printer, ink Mercury. I don't know Jerry Jones, Seaman, Jerry Jones. It's a great guess. Mouth swab just needs a mouth swab. Yep. So there's that the HeLa monster. Someone said, let's find Serroy's principal and call him about this. Yeah, we're not calling anyone from every story. Your principal name, please, I don't even come on, I don't remember. We will round up see if if your principal has an outdated website. I had a big story verified yesterday. I don't.

I should have good credit here for a while. We get your principal on check out his outdated website, then Ben and Skin can spend two hours following up with him exactly. Ron Giligan, the Star two twenty will forever be Ron Giligan day here on the first he already text me this morning, ron gil you guys are best friends now, right? He texted me yesterday afternoon at about one pm and politely asked to tell those guys to stop calling me. Yeah, I thought. I thought they didn't take advantage of the

situation very much. So we should have him on to talk about the new college football playoffs, extending to twelve and how he feels about Penn State this year. Maybe not. He said, yeah, hey, Mike, do me a favorite and tell the guys at the radio station. That's enough for today. That's enough. I bays had to throw them under. I'm like, yeah, they're stupid. Yeah, I'm a Kevin. That's Danny with Mike. I'm Mike JJ here. Now I want to, uh, do you guys know about the rat hole? What? I don't know? Man,

you don't not right now. So there's a rat shaped hole on a Chicago, uh sidewalk. It's gone viral a little bit. I've been getting a lot of visitors there. It's on this neighborhood street, and the people who actually live on that street are pissed because people are coming there and partying, turning it into like a Bourbon street tape situation. People have gotten married there, they're playing loud music, yelling, they're taking wild pictures of things.

And it is a hole in the ground, okay, on the sidewalk in the shape of a rat. Google it real quick, you see it, show show Danny so he can get it out of the image. It is very much. I mean, those little fingers are visible. Yeah, it looks like a fresh cement, and then a rat fell out of a building and landed right in the wet cement. So on. In early January, someone took a picture of it, posted it on Twitter, and then it got viewed more than five million times over two weeks later. It's escalated.

The Chicago Bulls mascot went there. Several news anchors are doing media appearances right by the rat hole, doing stories on it. Then a couple got married there. There's a proposal there first, and then a couple got married there at the rat hole. Well, the lady there's these headlines a pilgrimage to the cargo rat hole, the cities can't miss attraction. Yes, it is. It's incredible, it says, the Bean Riverwalk, the Picasso,

the rat second fiddle to the rat hole. So the neighbor of the lady on the street that lives where this rat hole is and it looks like it's by the like apartment area or condos, and she said, like there's been a bunch of trash piling up there. There's been vandalism, people like stealing packages off people's doorsteps. There's been a loud noise at all hours constant. You know, videos, people are just there, news stations are there. So she's complaining, she's bitching. Yeah, let me let me send a

memo to this lady. Look, woman, you don't move to Bourbon Street and then shake your fists at the sky about the noise. Well, it wasn't get to live next to the rat hole. So what It's a little bit of trash, a little bit of urine, some yelling, some loud music, sooty pile. Sure, but guess what property values skyrocketing? Well, her complaints might have led to maybe, actually maybe, but her complaints

might have led to it got filled in on Friday with concrete. But because people have been going by there so much and partying, they started digging out the concrete and they saved it. Save the rat hole. Now in Saint Charles, Missouri, an artist gotta it was like, man, that's a big that's a pretty big deal with that rat hole. An artist went in on a sidewalk and started carving into the sidewalk and like made some damage there

and he made the frog hole. Oh my god. So I was thinking, maybe where do we want to set up a tourist attraction right here on Innwood right here outside of our station. Yeah, across from costume World. Yeah, let's go carve out the bung hole. No the cat hole, dog, keep going on, hang one the heel monster hole. See, Kevin woke up whole this morning. He woke up this morning in around four maybe three forty five and started just laughing at himself, niggering. Yeah,

I can't wait. I'm going to say, boohold the bunhole boomhole on the radio. Run over there, look at your notes and see if it's your computer them. I'm a microphone, and those guys are never going to suspect it. But right about eight fifty three, I'm going to say, but the whole story, bunkhole, I that's you this morning audio. Where that was going. I looked off the safety when it went to frog hole, I looked off the safety a little bit. No, that was your safety.

Yeah, we froze and looked at you after bunghole, and then I delivered a beautiful pass right over the cover to coverage. He passed it to yourself accidentally because it bounced off of an O lineman's helmet. You caught it and then you got smashed for a fifteen yard loss. Look out there, freak Jesus, that's yeah, carving out a bunghole. He goes back to the well. He calls the same play After that one went soo tomato, j we know it was not going to work.
