Cookin'

days a week. Happy Saturday Saturday, Saturday Saturday, because hey, four hours a night in the overnight not enough. As we are in the air everywhere bloviating. Want to thank Jason McIntyre who joined us yesterday. We are again. It's a weekend with Gascon of a Gascon and making his way into the the new City. We're in a podcast only studio this weekend, so it might sound a little different, but just bear with us working out the cakes and the guests scan here. Jason McIntyre, big NBA guy, not

a baseball guy. He's an NBA guy. He loves the NBA and uh he's all about that action, and I enjoying the conversation, was good to talk. Yeah, he's passionate. I'm a little surprised though, given the fact that he is a New York guy. I mean, he covers the bases with the Knicks, um, and obviously the New York Jets. I'm a little surprised that he's not a baseball guy like Yankees or Mets, and then of course on the

ice with either the Rangers of the Islanders. But you know, because New Yorkers and Bostonians, they cover the entire map when it comes to athletics, I'm a little surprised there. We didn't get into college at all. But uh, but yeah, he's um. He's one of those dudes that lets it rip. And then obviously in the gambling set of things, he will laid down some action as well. Yes, he mentioned he as a kid, he was born in New York and then he moved to Northern Virginia, like the DC area.

If he had stayed in New York, I bet you he'd be a bigger baseball guy like New York's at baseball town that New York City, it's a big baseball time. But he left there and so it's not it's not as big a thing. Um So, anyway, on this podcast, we've got culinary arts, We've got that news real Mallard, we'll get scientifical with study slash survey this, and we also have barring time. We'll have pop quiz as well. But I I didn't want to start with the culinary arts,

guest guard. I know you like to brag and you like to send out photos on social media about some of your conquests. In the kitchen that's west of the four oh five, I don't do it. But I cooked a knee mean Mather pizza. It was finger looking, it was so delicious that it's it was restaurant quality. I I would compare it to the Kirkland brand pizza, which is the number one piece available commercially. Uh. Just delightful, just absolutely enticing, fit for a king the Mallard piece.

But I didn't need to send out a photo to get people to say how great it is. Um So, what's going through your mind here, Guess like, is it possible for you to cook something and not send a photo out to try to get pats on the back of gold stars? No, I think that you would agree with me that social media and its existence is for publishing content and for the me crowd, it's it's all

about me, me, Me. So part about being in the game is you gotta play the game and the only way to do that is to show off the skills that I do have. And one of them that's g rated, finds its way into the into the kitchen. And so your pizza it might have been as good as a Kirkland brand pizza, but it's probably the cost of it that attracts so many people because as you would know, and you would agree with me on this, is that you you don't go to Costco for a plus quality

food and content. You go there for the cost savings. You go there for the discounts. You go there for just the convenience. That is, you are not going there to get a filet mignon and have a taste uber uber sweet sensitive there just to get beef jerky. That's it. That is what your pizza is. It is beef jerky, and what I cook is filet mignon. That But by the way, I mean, you're clue, you're embarrassing yourself with

a lack of Costco knowledge. Gas gun do you understand, you can get the finest foods, the finest foods that Royal team, right, the matriarchs eat, and it's at Costco. You just I don't know what you're doing. You're you're looking at the tubs of mayonnaise and that kind of stuff, and you're not you're not actually familiar with the inner

workings of Costco. It's a bad job. But you now, I'm excited that Costco is bringing back the samples and I'm looking forward to that, although I guess it's not gonna happen in California because King Newsom will not allow it. But but, but but no, listen, I mean it pumped the brakes on you being the God's gift to cooking. And as far as social media, I don't need to

share everything, all right. I'm on there because it work, and I'm on there because you know, obviously, we've got fans and I like to interact occasionally with with the p ones, and I have some friends on there and all that. But there's I don't I don't get paid to be on social media. I'm not paid to send out pictures of my pizza that I make. I don't know if you want me to be like, I'll have like a four oh five weekend maybe where I'll be like you and I'll just randomly send out a bunch

of stuff. I'm not there yet, but maybe maybe on next weekend or something like that. I mean, I'm gonna have a guest on weekend and tweet out everything in my life. That's fascinating because I do recall a certain individual that would actually show up. This is pre COVID when when people actually had the balls uh to actually drive to work. Uh, you included, um, you would actually drive to work, take a picture or two, and then post it on social media about certain individuals parking alignments.

So when you talk about putting everything out there, um, that is putting everything out there a vehicle license plate number, a structure, and a co worker's parking habits. You did that, not anybody else I can think of at Fox Sports Radio. Well, again, that was not a dish that I made. That was not hey, I'm walking on the beach, look at me today. That was not you. Which you did was a criminal act and it affected my ability to do my job.

That was a gangster move. That was a goon move by you, guest gon and since you were at when you parked like that, you took up the Mallard space. I had the front parking place there. That was my space, and you turned into human skum okay, and so you were in the culprit. It was your car, and so I had to out you. I had to docks you. I had to expose you to hold up the honor of the radio show. And I must I must admit, guest, once I did that, you're parking. It's improved because I

don't go in there, so I don't worry about it anymore. Yeah, you should join the New York Times of the USA Today News news anchor death so you can just docks people for some unknown reason, for reasons that go against what your beliefs and feelings are. You'd be perfect out there in the East Coast, that'd be. That'd be fantastic. So all right, I don't wait, you who are lack can respect and dignity. All right. I recommend driver's education is what I recommend. Okay, they have a parking you

don't have to take the full thing. I don't know how you drive on the highway. I'm not I'm not in the car with you. I have no idea, but you're parking is morally bankrupt. Okay, so please please figure that out, yest, Come on, I will, I will. In the meantime, I will continue to post food porn pictures because I must say it's it's nothing that's short of

an A minus. It is tremendous food. I do a great job in the kitchen and there's more not people that are inspired by what I'm cooking because not only is it good, but it's healthy, it's timely, it's effective for the body. I'm doing all of this, this encompassing work for people. Were you it's just hot take hot take Lebron this, Lebron that, and I'm here. I'm just trying to make the world a better place, uh, compared

to what you do? So what it is? And you you do not realize the first rule of business that if you have a product right, you can't know the product is good unless the customer agrees. The customer is the one, the user of the product is the one that will determine whether or not it is a good product or not. And you're like, well, this's you're you're misguided with your opinion. There the customer is always right, right, and you know customer service. One thing that you're lacking

I know from your dealings with the Malle Militia is hospitality. Um, you're not exactly Tom Bodette from those old Motels six commercials. Right, we'll leave the light on for you. You're not that, you're the opposite at you know, you'll kick a guy in the nuts and you'll throw set sand in their eyes. That's more how you. You are operated and you understand you're bothered because you you really do not have any gascon cheap right, there's no there's no ensread souls that

are groupies will call them. You don't have Yeah, I don't have lap dogs and don't have sick of fans, and don't have people that wash my balls and you know, rub my back and you know, lick my toes like you do. I agree. I have intellectual people that I communicate with. We have this two way conversations, not me talking loud over people like some people I know on this podcast. So I'm not talking over or through people. I'm talking with people. That's that's the way that this

thing goes. So I agree with you that full heartedly. I agree. I agree with that because a lot of those people that are part of that Mallar militia are just the gunk on the bottom of my shoes. They're like plankton. They're like, you know, barnacles in the bottom of a ship. That's that's what they are. So that's fine. Now you're cooking back to your pizza. That's fine. You still have you have an eighteen month old tomahawk in your fucking freezer. So how about you just take it out,

put it in the oven. Light that thing up for four and twenty five degrees, you know, set it and let it sit for a bit. Yeah. So I I have a rule now that every time you bring up the tomahawks steak, I will delay the cooking process another like two weeks. So you're like a pond in this game here. And every time you think you're being cute and all that, can you imagine, like think about this. I listen, when you give a gift you have, it's

like it's like releasing, uh, you know, a bird. It's you're not expecting to find out how the bird does. The bird is gonna go fly away and live the bird's life. It's not gonna come back and nest at your house, and you have this misguided belief that you give a gift and then you are entitled typical West of the four oh five maniac psychopath behavior here, that you are somehow entitled to find out how the gift is used. That is not the case. That is wrong.

That is eager. I know you're you know, Mr highbrow Elitia's West of the four oh five social climber, that kind of guy. But no, once you have said bond voyage and asta leavista and adios or to the gift, that's it. You've let it go. You let it be free, right, let it spread its wings. Uh, And that's the kay. Now I will at some point make the steak. But again, every time you try to bust my balls, I will push it back right and say na na na hey

good bye. That's all I'm gonna doing. Okay, it's fine if you're gonna let things blossom as they are supposed to and uh, spread their wings if they if you will, you shouldn't have something morph until rock, because that's exactly what that thing has turned into, this small rock. That's a strong I'm gonna strongly disagree you. First of all, you have you don't know what you're talking about. You don't know where I'm storing the steak. You have no

idea how the steak is being massaged. Uh, you don't know any of that. You're you're making assumptions here with your GOBBLI gook and your foolishness over there. Uh. And I promise you the way I cook a steak, that thing can be in there for ten years. And I am going to burden that thing so much. Burn, baby burn is gonna taste wonderful, just like I like my steak. I know that bends your mind, but trust me, that's the way it's gonna be. It's embarrassing. That is absolutely embarrassing.

What is Uh? You have some did you get any reviews back yet from your documentary? Uh? Your documentary moments last week? I know we have people. No, No, I didn't any reason I did get We got some crap. We had the reporter, the young young reporter from BuzzFeed. She was on and I want to thank you Gascon. Uh. I got some crap. Did christ and Houston? Yeah? Yeah, Chris and Houston called up and complained on the show. And then I had some email from people who were upset,

and I to me, that one blows me away. Maybe we always get attacked, you know, because we lean conservative and that you know, how dare you? You know this is a Republican armed podcast or something which is not I mean, it's not um but I thought, I thought it was an interesting story, and you ran it by me to have her on the Dr Fauci email story, which was a big news story and it's really affected everything.

So we put her on the kicker though. I mean, I don't know her, but from what I read on the internet, she's a pretty liberal reporter for BuzzFeed, a liberal leaning website. It's not like it's not like we had somebody on from Breitbart or anything like that. I mean, she's she's from a place that's a liberal place. She's she's in college, which you know, by default, most people in college are indoctrinated into the into certain beliefs, and so hey, you know, I thought she was good. I

enjoyed the conversation. But these guys are triggered by rim and it's stuff that triggers people. I love it a break man. Are you gonna be able to read any of those responses to having her on at least out loud to me or to the audience at all, or I don't have him, I don't have him in front of me right here. But yeah I can. I can give you some of the some of the highlights there because it's the same, it's the same old you know.

It's like you know, I, I've listened to you for X number of years and I've always liked to but now I can't because you didn't blank or you hadn't blank on. I'm like, okay, this is absolutely fantastic. And now the best part of it is is that Dr Faucci is now hiding behind the shield of science. So if you attack Dr Faucci, you are anti science. You are attacking science by attacking a doctor. I love it.

It's that's how this game is played. It though, as soon as you hide behind something, now you can claim victimhood if you are any if there's any ounce of challenge coming your way, that's your that's your retreat mechanism. Yeah, well we've been through that during we talked about this, and you're supposed to follow the science and listen to the experts. Of course, the whole definition if you know anything about science, science is just disagreement. It consists of

people disagreeing with each other that science. So it pretty much when you say, it's a cop out to say follow science, because I can find scientists that I will agree with who other scientists will disagree with, and other people will follow them. So who's right? You know, it's it's science is whatever fits your narrative, right, whatever your beliefs are that science. So it's a bull crap, you know,

it's it's it's nonsense, is what it is. And and yet people get away with it because it sounds like you know what you're talking about, right, who would want to disagree with science? But again it's you know, people only believe in it's not only science, but it's doctors. Right. It's like you know, you're supposed to get a second opinion. You know, if you get something you don't like from the doctor, you go to somebody else and you find you find the answer you're looking for, um, And that's

how that works. My biggest response to retort to what what Chris and Houston did or didn't say, I didn't listen to that, that schmuck um. But but a message to him and anyone else that was complaining about it. Thank you for the download, that's all I care about. Thank you for clicking, thank you for listening to a minute, Thanks for the download. And if you don't like it, piss off. I will. I don't want every give you

too much credit, but I will say you have. I've noticed you have not exactly given a great thorough in the description. You've not always left that you know everything in there. So sometimes people will download the podcast not know exactly what's on the podcast. And it's actually pretty good because I do think in the podcast game, oftentimes people will download it or will not download if they see a name or something like that that they don't like.

So you've avoided that, and so people have been caught in the rat trap where they just automatically download the podcast and then are surprised just like what happened. I can't but I would never download this pod, but to wait. The damage has been doing. Speaking of which I know you mentioned this two weeks ago with a former girlfriend or a woman that you dated that listened or that that had a boyfriend stubble upon the podcast. I actually had that happened to me. Um a few days ago,

I had I had is that not awkward. How awkward is that is that? I mean, to me, that was awkward. I'm a I'm an introvert, but that was awkward to me. Yeah, it was a little awkward. I told her. I was like, I said, hey, don't ever listen to our ship ever again. She's awesome. She's a totally awesome woman. And uh, you know, we had a great relationship. But when she turned it on and I was like, oh my god, I was like, turn it off. Yeah, yeah, no, I it's been it's

been odd. I've heard from a few people. I mentioned the story in Denver randomly. Uh, somebody I dated like a couple of times when on a date with a guy, they were talking about podcasts and they mentioned our podcast and that that led to an awkward conversation. So there are some things things like that. But I also want to mention my new Michigas this week called me News Real Mallard, Gascon News Reel Mallard. I fell down a

rabbit hole this week. And it's the kind of thing that I occasionally will start watching this week in baseball and I'll I'll it's nostalgia for me, and I'll flashback and when I was like ten, eleven, twelve years old, and I watched that show religiously, and I learned about by Spall from Mel Allen and twid notes and all that. But this one's a little different. So I was looking

for something. I was looking for something I was going to use in a monologue, and I was surfing around YouTube and I came across a link which led me to the internet archive of Universal newsreels. Have you ever seen this? You know, this is wild. So my dad told me stories about this. This is why actually let me down this path. When I saw the link, I was like, wait a minute. My dad told me about that.

But in the days before television, people saw the news every week at the movie theater, right, they go to the local movie theater in the neighorhod or whatever, and newsreels were shown before every big Hollywood film, and you know, dedicated a newsroom theaters in the major city in New York, Chicago, Boston. And this company, Universal Newsreel. This goes back from nineteen nine.

It stopped in nineteen sixty seven, but they put all these they've all been archive and they're like a little you know, two to six seven eight minute videos but it's amazing because it shows you like the news of today, you know, Germany, you know, it gives up in World War two and surrenders in World War two. And they have the video and the video obviously it was film um global events, politics, assassinations of sports, you know. You know, I'm I look at that and I'm like, that's pretty cool.

I mean, you feel like you can flashback and imagine what it was like to sit in the movie theater and this is how you're getting the news because most people have got their news from the newspaper. And I remember my dad had had told me some of my favorites. By the way, guest Scott, they had a farmer from nineteen thirty three, this was on the news reel, the Universal newsreel, who played Yankee doodle dandy with his hands and uh, this they made They made a whole segment

about this guy that played Yankee doodle dandy with his hands. Uh, some random farmer. Um. There was one nineteen fifty eight, the first U S satellite you know, was launched, and think about I was watching that. I was like, well, they didn't know what was gonna happen, you know, the space era and think about nineteen fifty eight nineteen seven, there were no satellites, and think about what the world would be like now if you took about all the GPS and all the all the things that we use

on satellite. So it was pretty cool. It was pretty neat. Yeah, this is rab this is this is really some old school stuff. Now, quick question for you. In this newsreel website, well we find an archived trending report or update with Steve di Seger in it. Are you saying Steve has been around since the nineteen twenties? Is that? Yeah? I think that's kind of also dates back to when when Wrong Button Bob torpedoed your show and then they had to play Steve on a loop. Right. Yeah, yeah, we

should have brought that up to Jason McIntyre yesterday. But yeah, wrong Button Bob. I think I told him that story when we hung out at a golf thing a couple of years ago. But yeah, that's that's one of the all time race stories, the fact that Bob Gara shut the entire network off and did lose his job. I told him, I said, can you reset my computer? He said, yeah, I'll go. He had to go in the in the back where all the computers are for the network, and he went back there and sure enough he hit the

and I don't think he can do it again. There's some button there that will shut the entire network six four hundred, six hundred whatever it is, radio stations, satellite radio, I Heart radio, will shut the entire thing off. And he did it. It's amazing, absolutely that. Yeah. So then it was Steve di Siger, Right, he had like an update that was just yea, so we found out in a nuclear situation, what would happen? And yeah, they had put together a tape of some old show. It was

like four or five years prior to that. Uh, and then maybe even longer before that, and it was him talking about the n c A tournament. He was giving college basketball scores, so it wasn't it wasn't even college basketball season. See what we should do and I should go to management. We should make like an ever green type generic uh, you know, hour to put on right, which could be like you know those timeless sports debates

which Brady Montana, Lebron Jordan's. Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller Show weekdays at two a m. Eastern eleven pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the I Heart Radio app. Yeah, would you would you rather be Trent Dilford? Had Trent Dilford's career, Dan Marina right, because that's always an old, played out, tired sports debate.

Or we could do the Mount Rushmore which you made famous guest on the Mount Rushmore is of sports, you know, and as a belt checker, as a Belichicker, Brady, Yeah, Belichick, Brady, Or would you go Montana and Walsh mixed in with Steve Yar as like the third third person in So yeah, those kind of things. But yeah, this I recommended if you're looking here, if you're if you're a little bit of a fan of history, and you're to me, it's

pretty cool. It's looking up. It's Internet archive universal newsreels. They also had won the New York City newsreel the wedd City from nineteen thirty nine, that was before World War Two. And I sent that to my brother who's lived in Manhattan for twenty five years or whatever it is now, So I sent that to him to check out because it was pretty cool. I mean, many of those streets, like the big buildings are the same, but everything else. My god, Yeah, I'm looking at one right

now in nineteen fifty nine Castro triumphs. Yeah, that's what any is great. And the cool thing is they're not that long, so you can get through a lot of them. And there was one President Truman, I said, he officially proclaims Germany submits unconditional surrender to General Eisenhower. And they have the video. There was one Highlights of the year nineteen sixty one, John Fitzgerald Kennedy sworn in as the

thirty five President Russia. The race to space with Russia uh successfully orbiting a man in the US trying to get up there. The whole sput nick things, so the whole it was really cool, really cool. These are things I heard about and but I wasn't alive for that stuff, and it's kind of cool. That was how people got the news. And it also and maybe I'm wrong, guest Gum, but it was it wasn't as slanted to Team Red or Team Blue. It seemed like they played it down

the middle. But maybe that was just my my perception of how they gave the news and that I seen thirties and forties and fifties. Yeah, it's Uh, well, everyone doesn't have their hands in someone else's pocket, and you know, like they did, I think they do now. So um, I think the game's played a little bit differently, But that's for a different a different day, in a different conversation. Learned round my mind. Come on, all right, let's move on.

Let's get scientifical here. So here's a here's a fun one guest guy laughing gas. Laughing gas they have now determined can relieve symptoms quickly for people that are suffering from depression. But that you little laughing guess researchers from the Washington University School of Medicine. This is in St. Louis. They claim that small doses of was it nights oxide? Right? Isn't that the actual name of laughing gas? It's a a colorless gas. And they've determined that this rapidly has

improved the symptoms of depression in one session. Right, they mix oxygen and nitrous oxide, which is what you know, laughing gas and people having the mental health problems that people have. That's it. They're good. Have you ever had laughing gas? I've not. I've not had you no, never, never. Now should they give this to Naomi Osaka, the tennis player, who's a who's a fraud? Should they give it to her? I don't know. It's it's the third rebel man, Well

it's not. It's not even the third rail. I mean, she's been exposed as a fraud. She said she has mental illness. She couldn't talk to the media. You saw the story. I mentioned it on the radio show. Kind of been passing, but the final match at the French Open before she quit and said she couldn't handle it because she had to talk to the media. After that match, which she won. At the French Open, she was interviewed by Wow Wow, a Japanese broadcast company. The reason she

did the interview they paid her. So as long as you pay her, she apparently the mental illness goes away. So what a fraud? How could people defend her? I mean, she's exposed her own words. She can't do with the media because you know, she gets triggered and all that, and she's got all these conditions there. She is talking to a Japanese media company because they cut her a check. Well, I do applied rolling garrows and obviously the French Open, Wimbledon,

Australian Open, US open for taking the stands. Hey, if you're not going to participate in our mandated activities, then you will not be participating on the court or clay. So I'm down for that. It's about time, right, Like, you have certain leagues now, at least here in the National Football League, the NBA, Major League Baseball, even the NHL that have allowed players to do different things prior to you know, game getting underway that takes a from

the actual action. Tennis is not allowed that to happen. Yeah, well, but keep in mind though after they gave the terse statement initially they did walk it back a boom. They like it, So I I hope you're right, But it's it's kind of like the people that stand up to the mob and then back down a couple of days later. It's like cameras aren't on them anymore. Yeah, yeah, all right, we're doing study this. Let's get scientifical study out suggests

that dreams may use memories to predict the future. Oh man, that's not good. Yeah, news study is offering up. They claim compelling evidence that dreams are a way for our minds to look back at what has happened and then predict the future that your mind is predicting future outcomes according to the finding streams result from a process that confines various memories from pastics experiences while anticipating how future events may unfold. Now, I am not a dreamer, gas Scott.

I don't get into a deep enough state of sleep unless I use a sleep aid. My wife is an epic uh. She is an epic dreamer, and she remembers everything she tells me about her dreams. Even when I dream, Like most people, I'll forget my dreams, like five minutes after I wake up, are you a dream of Yeah? I dream a lot. I do. I I dream a lot, and I hate the fact that when I dream sometimes I wake up but I get piste off. I'm in a bad mood because somebody happened in the dream that

set me off. So the first thing I do is I wake up and just in a bad mood, like why did I dream about that? At this point? So, but yeah, I dream a lot. Yeah. The dreams I remember most are usually the ones which lead me to have to get up to go to the bathroom because it has that I'll be like, oh man, you wake up, You're like, okay, I got her go to the powder room there. All right? How about this one dog's life for me? Dogs life for me the headline on this

and most Americans. This is for most Americans, man's best friend is the number one priority. Out of out of ten Americans, how many out of ten Americans admit they take better care of their pet than themselves, I'd say eight out of ten. It's close, almost seven out of ten, almost seven out of ten. This is a survey conducted by the National Pet Appreciation People. Who the hell are they? I don't know, but it was done done here in June, and they said sixty seven percent prioritize their pets well

being over their own. Wow, that's impressive. Yeah, I love Bella, but yeah, I probably. I don't know that I take better care of Bella than me my dog. But she's treated pretty well. She's tread well, she's treated like royalty. Alright. Alergae outfit, algae outfit, well, algae. You know, you go to the you go to the pond of the laker.

It's disgusting, it's that green, nasty stuff. Well, scientists now have determined that we soon maybe wearing clothes made out of that bright green ooze of algae and they've they've actually done this with three D printing technology. They were able to create clothing made from algae. Wow, yeah, how about that. I guess they're still testing it to see whether or not it will last. And you can wash it and all those kind of things. We can get a bad we can get a big Ben Maller algae jumpsuit.

How about that. But you've you've said off the air that you think the Mallard militia is filled with algae, So you know you've you've made little plankton, some barkins. Yeah, all right, Well here's one Back from the Dead. Back from the dead. It's like a horror movie and a this is odd water animal from This goes back to the time that mammoths were roaming the earth and it has been brought back to life. It was buried in the perma forest of Siberia for twenty four thousand years.

Think about that, twenty four thousand years, and scientists have recently been able to bring it back. They obviously through the magical advances in technology. It was in a state of suspending animission, animation rather in that perma forest and uh, it's known as the Arctic rhodifer. I believe it's how they said it there, and it's not very big, it's

less than a millimeter. The reason I'm bringing this up, guest guy, this is a major breakthrough in the science community, and it is leading some to be convinced that we are getting closer and closer to being able to make Jurassic Park a real thing. That we could bring back dinosaurs and Willie mammis and prehistoric beasts, the wooly mammoth, the saber tooth cat, even eventually human beings. Now you

wouldn't be the same. So I don't think you can bring back human beings right because I think we are really based on our life experience. You could bring back for the genetic makeup of the person, but I we are all a result of every decision we've made in our youth. We are all a result of our friends, our family, the people around us. That's what makes people.

And so you could create a DNA profile which is the same, but it doesn't mean that you're going to have that pretty will not have the same person anyway. This is kind of cool. They've discovered the mechanism that protects the cells and organs from disintegration, so they think this might be used as well to prolong life. So it's that's pretty cool. That is I did see USC had published last week UM a release on a new

drug that they're using to battle against Alzheimer's. I don't know if you saw that, UM, but it is fascinating to see the evolution and obviously the continuance of of discovery. But Mad, you're playing god though, if you're looking to to toy with I mean not cloning, but in a sense it is cloning, right. If you're trying to duplicate a species, whether it's an animal or human being, that's a that's a different game, man, that's a that's what's

known as Pandora's box, that's known as the Thing. The thing too though it would I'm I'm kind of a conspiracy guy in this, Like I think this is already going on in China, UM, where they don't have morality

laws like we have in the United States. So I would not be shocked if this stuff has already taking place in laboratories Frankenstein's laboratory around the world in certain countries that are less worried about you know, people being triggered and hurt and not concerned about their standing in society.

And hey, you know the the legend that Yao Ming the NBA player, was a creation of the Chinese government, right that they genetically engineered Yao Ming to be taller than everyone else and they created something very good basketball player before you got hurt. Don't forget if I buy that, but that's that's been out there, that room where that's been out there. Don't forget. Elon Musk's other company, Neuralalink.

They want to put a micro trip chip in your in your brain and they think that that would be able to fight off things like Alzheimer's and dementia. Uh yeah, no, it's cool. I always am skeptical. I know when my mom was going through cancer and all that, I'd get all excited because there'll be some study out of Israel that they they're close to figuring out how to stop It was turned out it was not not accurate. It was just bullshit. But all right, we've got time for

a few pop quiz questions. Not the full Monty will have an additional pop quiz next week, but here we go. A new survey asking Americans what they cut back on when they start dieting. More than people claim. This is the first thing they cut back on when they start dieting. Uh, there's two guesses I have. I'll go with I'll go with soft drinks. That's what I did. But that's not the answer I could out. No, it's actually fast food. Oh all right, no mickey, these, no burger king and

none of that. I forgot to tell you it. I'm happy you brought at a I I went to in and Out the other night, and I don't know if you do this or um. I went to in and Out the other night and out in like Hacienda Heights. This is the golf like the sixty freeway or whatever, and that's that's east of the four oh five. Yeah, I ate on my way home, so I was driving and eating at the same time. Ben. I left the rappers and the bag in my car overnight, so that

aroma from the in and out. It was just fresh on my mind the first thing the next day when I got into my car. Have you ever done that? Or is that like that? Say? Well, I have done it, although recently usually it's you know, I'm you know, I'll point the finger at the wife that my wife will will leave something in the car. But see then to me, the in and out smell is wonderful. So it's like a nice carson. But then you the problem is you then want to go right back to in and out

and get more in and out. Problem. Yeah, but but yeah, that smell was very sorry. I hate it. I made a rare exception. I ate it five guys this week. I'm eating there in a while. I saw it. Actually, I saw a YouTube video and it for some reason, it got me thinking about five guys, and so I went and watched. I went to five guys, and but it sucks. It's not the same because they don't have the peanuts right now because of the COVID, so they won't let you. They won't let you eat the peanuts.

And that, to me, that's part of a full five guys experience. I'll sit down, I'll eat a whole cup of peanuts, and then I'll eat the burd. I can't do that right now. Yeah, that's the fortun of that, all right. When it comes to their health, About half of Americans never do this, even though they know they should. We're all told to do this. What people don't do it drink water. Uh no, it's get a second opinion.

Get a second opinion, man. Second opins are expensive. Man, I told you what I went through with my ear issue last year, and you went to San Diego. You have to go to San Diego to see a doctor, right, Yeah. I went to a neurologist, I went to my regular physician, I went to an E N T. And none of them had the answer. I ordered my own M R R. And then I went back to those same guys, and they're like, oh, there there's the issue, Like there's the problem.

We should have seen this before. And so I was fortunate. I contacted my insurance company and they wiped out all those additional expenses to see those specialists. But yeah, it's it's fucking expensive. And I don't know if you saw this the other day, but inflation has been skyrocketing. I think it's equal to what happened like two thousand eight or two thousand nine. So yeah, that's not helping either. No,

it's not all right. A new service says men are twice as likely as women are to not use this product as often as experts say. We all shop what product? Is it? Something related to the summer. Oh, sunscreen, yeah, sunscreen yeah, people people who Yeah, I need but I wear a swim shirt. I'm a overnight like pasty white guy. I need to cover up as much skin as I can cover up. I would like to wear a burka in the pool. When I go to the pool, it's bad man, I and you know my hair, I gotta

wear like a bandana. I'm like a pirate when I go in the water because if I don't wear a bandana, I get a burn on the top of my head. And so then and so then. Yeah, I'm you know, I don't get a lot of sun doing the overnight, so I have to, you know, I have to cover up a lot of stuff or else I'm in trouble. Yeah, you gotta like you gotta like, you know, slowly gradually get your way into the sun, like if you came out here. I can shoot a couple of places. There's

a city called the Hermosa Beach in Manhattan Beach. It's on this nice little coastline next to the Pacific the Coast Highway, and you can just walk or run or whatever you want. Really really nice beautiful people there. It's a wonderful adventure if I go to a beach, it'll be like like Laguna or somewhere like that, because that's there's no four or five three with the four or five freeway ins and Irvine. Laguna Beach is south of Irvine, so I'll go there I want. I went to the

city of Tustin the other night. I had to go, like, yeah, that's my old snopping gross Irvine, tuting that area. I called a championship lacrosse match on Tuesday night I was playing. Who was playing? It was a Foothill and Liola the Tillers. Tillers, Yeah, yeah, I played. I played against them in high school. The first thing I thought when I got down there, as I thought, well, I didn't realize this made people love lacrosse, and then too, If I lived in this area, I'd

probably be married and divorced at least three times. I just unlotable. A lot of lot of repicks, a lot of first round picks Division one. Yeah, yeah, I hear it. I hear It's a target rich environment, as they would say in top Gun. As as a friend told me years ago, you can window shop, but don't touch are for that, which is a lesson actually Deshaun Watson probably should have. But anyway, your guy, Deshaun Watson, Yeah, all right, I will do a couple more because of time restraints.

It it has happened that men who do this competitively, this activity competitively, can lose about ten pounds during a ten day tournament. What is this activity? Mm hmmm, I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say something off the beaten path. I'm gonna say bocci ball. No one another guess this is something you would not associate with weight loss arm wrestling? Now chess? Oh? Wow? Really chess? Why would you lose

weight playing chess? It doesn't make any sense. I guess you said you don't eat because those things go a long time. Is that why? Yeah? But here's in such a static position. I don't know. I don't get that. Your metabolism isn't racing. You're sitting. You're yeah, I don't get that. Wow. Ten days? All right. A survey this will be the last one. A survey asked Americans to name something that puts them in a bad mood in the morning. This was the most common answer, what is it? Spouse? Wow,

that sounds like a guy that will never be married. No, the answer is I mean loving food. Yeah, God, spilling spilling food or drinks on your clothes in the morning. You know, you're getting you a cup of coffee and you spill some of you gotta change or else you're gonna the whole day. You're gonna have a stain on your outfit. I get that. I understand that. I I think the only time I get piste off in the morning is whenever I hear the garbage man and his horn or his like sound or like the beep goes

off and it's before I'm supposed to wake up. Yeah, that gets well. Some of us that work overnight guests go on, I have this this phobia where like the gardener comes over to your house and just use that air air blower at like eleven in the morning when you've just gone to bed at eight in the morning and you know you're going to have three hours in and then. Uh not that this is hardship, it's not, you know, but it's hard, hard to hard to really

sleep with all that racket and all that stuff. So, yeah, you need soundproof windows and uh and you know obviously uh lightproof blinds too. Yeah, I've got a lot of that stuff. Over the years, I have acquired a number of those things. I do have that, but still it doesn't doesn't necessarily work all the time. But that's it. Yes, can there.
