God Bless Truck Drivers

Here we are. You're tremendously excited. And I look forward to the Sunday podcast because it's a lot of funny. People send questions in and you never know what you're gonna get. It's like a box of chocolate standing. We have no idea. Well, I have some idea because I put a list of the emails together, but but I forgot about them. I have a bad memory, so I forgot about them. So it will be new to me, Danny, and it's it's it's I love it. I love that

we had a good podcast on Saturday. You happened about the Death Star so Fi Stadium Spider man memes and all that. So we'll try to do it above average one and hopefully they will not be uh that listening to us, hopell that I should be. Yeah, Ben, the only thing that's gonna be more exciting than today's mail bag is the Pro Bowl. Yeah, well, you let me know how it goes, okay, because I'll I'll be doing something else. I'll be staring at a wall. Is what

I'm gonna be doing. Is we'll put that out right now? Oh hell, Bill Miller, because I gotta worry about the Super Bowl day. See, I gotta worry about that. I gotta get my outfit together. That's right. I don't even know what that means, but righte that button anyway, all right, so let's get let's get into it. You know, the official to have the mailbag, you have to have the official mail bag open, otherwise it's not a mailbag, it's something else. So here we go. Thank you very much.

The Great Ohio Al sent that in Ohio Al sent me an angry letter. He loves this show, but he was complaining about another show that he doesn't like, and I think he just wanted to vent. You know, sometimes you just want to vent. Danny, and he I think he just wanted to complain, and event I think he's okay now, but maybe not. But he sent along email he asked for like someone's email address. But you know, Danny, we're not allowed to give out certain email addresses, as

you know, otherwise we end up getting in trouble. So we have to say we hate to do that, but occasionally we have to do this. Yeah, you have to pull a Sammy Sosa at that point, are you speak? Yeah, exactly exact? When in Rome, act like a Roman, and when you're facing the United States Congress, suddenly you forget English. But it does. It does occasionally happen anyway. So these are actual questions in and by actual listeners. We think you all. You guys have been great week after week

and with a loyal group that sends questions in. And we always welcome new people. And if you're new to the podcast or you've been listening a while and you never pay attention, I get it. But there's several ways you can contact us. Uh. Facebook is the most likely source of this. Every Tuesday, Tuesday Tuesday, we post a link, so you have all pretty much all day Tuesday and all day Wednesday and part of Thursday, but usually try to get it in by Thursday. Usually Wednesday night is

the cut off on that. And you can post on our Facebook page Ben Malors Show, you can send me a private email. We have our own email address for this podcast, Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com, Real fifth Hour. That's F I F T Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com. And you can contact Danny G as well. Danny's on Twitter, Danny G Radio on Twitter. You can find him on there, and so there's multiple ways you can send a question, and we do appreciate it.

We know it's the pain of the ask. But if if you're saying, hey, I want to know something about this and I'm curious about that, feel free and have you got nothing else going on? You just want to say, hey, I'm doing Yeah, I don't know what the dogs doing, but dog's probably sleeping right now at least in my my humble about all right, So first email comes from let's see here. Once you go page down here, page down. Yeah.

Kevin in Kansas says, dear Ben and Danny G. I have been in the process of downsizing stuff from my life, he says. Ben says, you just made your move. What percentage of the stuff in your boxes do you think you'll be able to jettison in the next year or two. Yeah, so I've had tough time with this. Yeah, I got we got a lot of stuff. Um and I know,

I'll give you an idea. When my my father passed away last year and we had to go through the house that he you know, I grew up in and he lived, you know, he lived till he died, and my parents, may they rest in peace. They had we we went up to the attic above the garage and there were boxes, hand to God, Danny that hadn't been opened from the nineteen seventies, that had stuff from the nineteen sixties, in the nineteen fifties that I'm sure they

had the best of intentions that day. We're gonna open those up someday and they were gonna reminisce and all that stuff didn't happen. And uh so it's wild the American pickers guys would have loved opening those boxes. Oh yeah, they're like a bunch of old things from my my mom's like high school, junior high school, and she had saved little knick knacks. It's stuff and I'm looking at this, I'm like, man, like, this is wild. And I tried to find my mom's picture in one of these things.

I couldn't find it because everyone looked the same, they had the same haircut and the whole thing. And it was they didn't make your books back in those days like they do now. It's hard to It wasn't an alphabetical order. It was just kind of everyone's jumbled on the page. And the nineteen fifties it was a lot different, or sixties. It was a lot different back then, obviously.

So I'm coming through a move recently, like you, Ben, Uh, it's pretty amazing how little you actually do need while you're in the moving process and you don't get to it until months later. So how bad did you really need that stuff? No, you're absolutely right. But then it's like, well, maybe I will need you talk yourself into that, and I'm I'm trying to battle that myself because i we

gotta get rid of a lot of stuff. I need to hire a magician who Dan I don't think he's available, because I gotta make a lot of stuff vanished, and you know, it's only have a limit time off of the podcast takes up time the radio show, and so when you have a little time off, you're like, well, I don't want to do that. That's you know, I want to do something fun. I don't want to do that, but you gotta get it done. And that's where the storage unit places really get you. I have one unit

right now. You know it's not a big storage unit, but still it's a hundred bucks a month. I don't have three times. I'm working seven days a week right now. So you're chasing your tail and then they start to up the rent price on you. That's a multibillion dollar industry,

the storage units. Oh yeah, no, it's it's the perfect scam because they give you a low you know, first month, one dollars of that, and then they get you in on that and you're all excited and you're like, oh, this is great, and I got storage, I get everything. And then within like five or six months, all of a sudden, the rate goes up and it's not like they warn you. It's not like and then you can say, hey, wait a minute, no, you don't get to do that.

I had one in l A where they would jack up the rent every six months out of principle alone. I went over there with a truck one day. I got it all out, and I made my own storage space inside my apartment. Yeah, and you're right, you know, some of the stuff I need a lot of electronics and things like that for my podcasting studio that I still need to put together. But other than that, you know,

as far as knick knacks and collectibles and things like that. Man, I'm gonna do the old take the old advice, take a picture of it, and then get rid of it. Yeah. I'm working through the mental part of that right now, because I mean, I have so much that my entire life has been saved by my parents. For Puss, I could open a museum. Nobody gives a crap about me, so there's no need to open a museum. But I mean I have everything. I mean, my mom, I don't

anything that came into our house. Danny stayed in our house the rest of my mom's life, and my dad's feel Wow. Well, the psychology behind it is their parents went through the Great Depression, or if you're young enough, great grandparents, and and then so after that, when the country recovered anything they had a value, they saved it forever anything that was of value. We are not getting

rid of this. Yeah, no, it's true. And my you know, that's a great point because my my parents, their grandparents did go through the depression, and my mom was always a joke because she always like, you know, people were hoarding toilet paper and stuff like that. When COVID started and my mom had so much of everything, she was so worried about not having stuff that she collected so much.

We always had tons of whatever, I mean, not just food, but like plates and uh you know, the ziplog bags and like random stuff that she you know, because of how she was raised that she had to keep it also. Anyway, all right, moving on here come back shot from now. I get it, I understand, all right. Next up is Barry and Nashville. He says, Yo Yo Ma Benny and Danny g. Of course, he says Ben for both you and Danny. If I added that, by the way, yo yo mom Benny, he did not write that was his thing,

and then he didn't even bother putting it. He said that's how I he need everyone should introduced me yo yo mob Benny or something like that. Anyway, he says Ben for both you and Danny, if you won the lottery, let's say five million bucks, would you continue to work or would you retire? So I'll go first. Uh, hey, I would love doing a lottery. Who wouldn't, although the taxes on that are insane to the membrane I understand be I would not stop working. I love what I do.

I'm very lucky that I have the ability to do a job that I like a lot and so I wouldn't stop, although I would probably take more time off, and I wouldn't stress about having one bad show and then losing everything because I don't have enough money. So that would be neat. That would be neat to have a little bit of the distress of having to pay for everything, which is a pain in the ask. What about you, Danny, if you got you wouldn't work seven days a week, right, you lose one of the gigs? Yeah,

I mean I would take some time off. I would go on a long vacation, and then you'd start getting antsy a little bit, because you want to stay busy and be productive. So what I would do is a morning show or an afternoon show, and that is the best time been to host a program. I think back to when I was programming nine the Heat in the one area code of California, and I was there for a year. Station blew up did really good, but the local owner was a dirt bag. He owed me a

dollar bonus. He refused to pay my bonus and I had it in writing everything, but he just wouldn't give it to me. So when it came time to reap my contract, I told him, we'll give me my bonus first. He wouldn't do it. So I'm like, okay, well I'm out of here until you give me my bonus. I go home, weight around. He finally calls and he's like, well, hey, uh. While I searched for your replacement, would you mind coming in and at least hosting the morning show like you've

been doing. I'll bump up your hourly pay for the morning show and that's all you gotta come in and do for me until I find somebody. And I thought about it and I was like, all right, whatever, So I went in and I did the morning show. Ben. That was the best three months of radio I've ever done in my life because I didn't have anything to lose. We laughed and had a good time every single day of the week I knew I couldn't get fired, oh man, and that I feel like your show would kind of

be like that if you had fuck you money. Yeah, no, no, it would be wonderful. I would definitely, uh go off the cliff a few more times the night I do. Now, I try to stop right at the cliff. I you know, try to tow the line. You know, it's like a wide receiver toe tapu feeding bounds. I would be like, who cares, I don't need any feeding bounds. You know, what do you? What? Are you gonna do it? All right? I'm fine, But it would be like a podcast on

live radio. Yeah. Remember Steve Harvey briefly worked in our building. And remember when Steve before COVID, he went back I do always does the show from now. I probably home like everyone else, but he would. He'd come in a few times and it's like, you know, much money. Steve Harvey has the game show, the radio money. It's just unreal, but he's still doing it. He's still you honestly got dude books. Um now his Judge Harvey Show, The Dude is loaded, and he you know, to his credit, he

would be up just as early as we were. And the thing I love about I'm a big Steve Harvey fan, but one of the things I really respect about him is he realized that the foundation of everything is radio. Like a lot of people start right, you know a lot of people starting radio and then they become TV

stars and like, screw radios below me. But Steve Harvey always has valued that base that people will listen to you on the radio and then watch you on television and there's more of a you know, we're both radio nerds. This is more of a connection you get from radio than you can from a TV show or anything like that. But let me say TV pays a lot better. So I'm okay without the connection because those checks are really big, and I'm okay with it. Alex in Benton, Maine rights in.

He says, does the halftime sideline show? There's a halftime sideline show with blaring stadium sound in the background. Piss you off as much as it does me. What do you do during halftime? Now he's referring to the CBS broadcast and you see this, you were you were around Vegas.

So the a f C Championship game CBS there there was a live performance I think it was some country guy at halftime and drowned out JB and all those other Yahoo was on CBS, so you couldn't even hear what they were saying while they were trying to break down the first half of the game. It made for a very awkward viewing. I did not see the lie. I was watching the game, but we didn't have audio where I was at the Rams game. But I did see the clip on the internet and it was cringeworthy.

And what I do at halftime is normally, if I'm at home watching the games, I I go to the bathroom, I get some food, and then I sit back and watch because half times, like fifteen minutes, it's it's hardly there's nothing going on really for halftime, it's it's here and gone real quick. Uh, what about you, Danny? Was your halftime routine? Yeah? I don't pay attention to those stupid halftime shows anyways. You know, unless those guys are listening right now, we're trying to book them for the

fifth pocket, then I love your work. But other than that, they say the same crap over and over again. They're all reading off of teleprompters. Usually there's a couple of guys we like because they'll say it the way they think it is and they speak their mind. But other than that, to me, it's just boring. And uh, you know, I'd rather be doing something else at halftime. I'm right

there with you. I used to love the pregame shows when I was a kid, and then I had a some point I realized all they do is play, grab bass and and and laugh at things that aren't funny. And they have canned interviews, which whatever. That's not really my thing. And uh yeah, so I stopped watching those a while ago, but you should. Of course, we do commercials. You should watch all the all the pregame shows and whatnot. All right, anyway, let's see here, moving on from that,

any meany mighty mo? I got mail? Yeah, I got mail? Yeah, Azzy momentum right in from down Under? He says, simple question, what superpower would you guys pick? He says the ability to be invincible, invisible, fly, superhuman strength, to create fire or ice at will. So you have to pick one superpower? Well, I think some of us who live in the shadows have been almost invisible, so I think we've experienced that

flying would be be great. But what if you crash, are you guaranteeing me ozzy momentum that I would never crash because I'd be down for that. That would be pretty cool as I probably pick flying, flying, or invisible, like the stuff you could do if you could all of a sudden become invisible, like go to any game you want, You're invisible. Walk in they they can't see it. I didn't have to buy a ticket, You're in there. What would you pick? Day, Well, this one's easy for me.

I go back a couple of podcasts ago and I told the story about Freeze Monster with the kindergarteners. Yeah. So if I could truly freeze kids that were misbehaving, there would be some kinder sickles all over the yard. Parents would be coming to pick up blocks of ice. Uh,

that would be awesome. I would truly be the freeze Monster. Yeah. Well, plus as the freeze Monster, if there was ever like a wildfire calling the freeze Monster boom, you don't need the fire department on, just need a helicopter, the any of that stuff, the super Scooper, none of them worldwide acclaim all of a sudden, you're you're there to save the day, like a real superhero. You could just free stuff. All right, You've got Robin Vegas right, and he said,

hey Bet a longtime caller, first time listener. Thank you. I'd love to get you. And Danny G's opinions on this, which of the following fill ins, both recent and past, would you prefer? Please rank them? One is the best and four as the worst. He's got Brandon as in let's go Brandon news he produced for Coope one day earlier. Actually, yeah, it was one day. I think he was in one day. Uh. He says he hung up on Marcel and Justin before

they got to do food picks. Ricky, who apparently isn't on social media, which is rather odd given his assumed young age. Brian Finley, who created his own fan club called the Finley Fanatics, although he calls it something else here, and he says David Gascon a K. Gascan who is the ultimate narcissist with uh with you know, fake white teeth or whatever. Anyway, Uh so he wants that story. Now, should we do this? This is rather dangerous here, Danny. Should we take debate here and rank the fill in

from best to worst? Mm hmm, I guess. But gascon even filling in on your lives. No, he does not. He's he's long gun. It's he's it's below him to come in at night. He's the West of the four oh five guy. He can't be bothered way that. So for he's obviously the worst gas gun, clearly the worst. Uh. Finley a close second. Uh and then uh. Other than that,

I guess you know Ricky and Brandon's a tossa. I've worked with Ricky more than Brandon, so I'll put Ricky is the number one and then Brandon is the number two. So yeah, I don't know either of those guys as producers. I know them as editors in the back who usually call into the studio to tell us about sound. This is their introduction to the production world. Sometimes in radio we have to pop some chairs here, Danny, to welcome them to the other side. So have you been welcoming

to both of them? Are hard on both those guys. You gotta learn the right way, You gotta learn the right And I've been okay. They have had They've both had some tremendous funk ups, and I have not. I've not made a big deal about it. I'm like you know it's all because well, we all started somewhere. I made some terrible mistakes when I started on radio, But I do believe in the life model that never make the same mistake twice, that as long as you do that,

you're okay. That that's the way to go on that our Oreo Cookie from Oakland, Oaktown in the House says, Hey, Ben, to the people that knew you before you lost weight, treat you different now that you're almost fun size. And did you ever catch anyone talking under their breath about you? Let me answer the second one, first story, O Cookie. Yes, Uh, And it always made me uncomfortable because there's some really

it's usually women. You know, they kind of cover their they'd be like they cover their mouth so you couldn't see, but you knew they were talking because they were looking at you and kind of kind of pointing your direction with her other hand. Uh. Just really made you feel bad, very rude. And I don't think people have treated me differently.

I don't know, maybe they maybe they have, but it is like the perception when you go around and you've lost weight, like people just they don't give you as hard a time and it's just you just kind of fit in better and it shouldn't be that way, but that's the way people are. So I don't know if that helps you out Oreo Cookie. Do you think his mom or your dad named named memorial cookie, first named Orio, last named Cookie. I don't know, but I want some

Oreos for breakfast. Now there you go. Danny G from Minneapolis another Danny G rights. He says should ex head coach Mike Zimmer consider switching to special teams coach with the way he outkicked his coverage with the smoke show of a girlfriend he has thank you signed the real Danny G. Well, I think this is for you, Danny G One, Danny G. Do another. Here. We are radio guys, and we have some smoke shows on our arms. Ben. We're neither wealthy nor famous as you can qualify famous.

So if we can do it, then these dudes that have, you know, ten times the money we have, why can't they do it? Yeah? Well, I good for Mike Zimmer and we'll see if that relationship continues. You got you got a booty model's coaching the Vikings, and I don't think he'll be playing that anymore. Well, it's either you've got game or you don't, and obviously he's got game.

Yeah yeah. And the other thing too about that, I love that she was the one trashing the Vikings general manager on social media after he got let go and they both got let go, but she was going around defending him, which tells you she really likes this guy, right, because you know, because that's kind of cool. Stand by

your man, right as I just supposed to do. Okay, let's see come back judging it's side from the call, all right, Valls Fan Jimmy and Fayetteville, Tennessee says, for both of you, guys, have you ever been out with an Instagram booty model this kind of leads or any other woman on a dating app? That's the show on Fox. Thank you, Valls Fan Jimmy. Well, we both are in committed relationships and the very lucky to do that. I I did do a lot of the Internet Danny Danny

of course, famously for tender rony tips. Uh. I don't think I ever dated a Instagram like an official Instagram booty model. I don't what qualifies a woman to be an Instagram booty model just having a booty and being on Instagram, because I could you know, I guess that's the case. Sure, why not? And I'm in that in

that department, But yeah, I do. Living in l A here, I'm sure this goes on everywhere, but maybe more in l A. Driving around, you see women who are posing, usually with their girlfriends, just like from of random places around l A because there's good lighting or something unique. And I give him credit. These women learned early on. They learned the poses where you you pull your leg a certain way, your foot a certain way, it does enhance what your mama gave you. So they've figured all that,

all the cheat codes out very photogenic. Is there a class on that, like how to properly pull your foot back to make your butt look bigger? I'm not sure who teaches that, but somebody learned somewhere along the way. Next up here, I got mail, yea, I got mail, yea. Our friend Jennifer in Richmond, Virginia. She's she she's probably like a booty model. Jennifer there in Virginia. She says hello again, Benn and Danny Gy. She says, I hate the idiot drivers so much that I am toying with

the idea of getting a pilot's license. In the next read of five years. If I do, would you ever consider hiring me as your personal pilot for either a helicopter or a private jet your daily commutes to Costco, to ballgames, to Vegas and vacations? What do you think you could be saying? So long suckers the entire time. I love the idea of this. I think you mistake me, Jennifer for Colin Cowhard though, if I could afford the fuel,

cause aren't the fuel cost Danny on that insane? Like right, That's that's what gets you is paying for the fuel. I don't have access to a Gulf Street. I don't, uh you know so, I mean I watched Star Wars and it's like rip off Star Wars, like it's you know, that's the version I get, Peter Griffin version. I don't get the look at the other version. So you know what, though, Ben, if this podcast keeps gaining traction the way it has,

you're not far from a Gulf stream. Yeah. Right now the podcast is doing well, so hopefully we'll keep it up. They will add a fourth day of the Pikes. Now, I think we're good with three. I think that's a couple of big name guests like William Shatner and you're on your way. How's that coming you? Did you have spoken to shatter his people? He's on his way. Yes, he's almost dead. You gotta get him before he checks out, you know. Yeah. Shatner's email reply was simple and right

to the point. It said, fuck Ben Mallard. Now I think Shatton will do it. We just have to pay him five grand and then he'll come on. We have to donate to his horse charity and then all of a sudden he'll be And if we don't, you know, it's uh, alright, keep it going on the mail bag, Yes, Benn and Danny g Italian, good day. This is from Helen and stew and Palmetto Bay Flooria. I gotta tell you that since you came on the podcast, these two

are so nice. They're so sweet. They were at loggerheads with that what I forget the guy's name who was on the podcast board, but they were very upset and people were attacking them. It was ugly. Now sweet, nice, wonderful people again, And so Helen and Stewie right and says again, so glad to see you boys reunited. On the fifth out a nostalgic second chance at Fox Sports Radio love like Hollywood celebrities Ben and Gen or maybe your working relationship is more like Pam and Tommy. No judgments,

it works well, okay. With the super Bowl in l A this year. Three quick questions for both of you, Campeche One, will you both be taking a day off next week to market and record the fifth hour interviews on radio row broadcast those the following weeks. That's question one? Question too, will you boys be visiting the Super Bowl

NFL Experience? And question three the most important question. With your Fox Sports press credentials in hand, with the two of you and your wives dressed to the ten's double date and crash any famous super Bowl parties m night. Alright, So number one, yes, I believe yes, hasn't happened yet, but I believe we're on Yes. Number two unlikely but possible. Are you gonna go to the NFL Experience It's right

there where we're gonna be next Friday. Yeah, yeah, that's maybe maybe we go kick a field goal that would be kind of cool. Uh. The As far as the most important question, I have not been invited in these parties, which is really annoying Danny because over the years it's almost like, let's funk with Mallard because I will get invited to Super Bowl parties when the games in Tampa or Miami and you know wherever, Dallas, Atlanta, New Orleans, the games in l A. And surprise, motherfucker, not a

single invitation. There was a woman who was a big fan of the show, and she listened to me a long time. She's a very nice woman. Her job is she's a celebrity party planner, and for years she said, why don't you go to the Super Bowl. I'll put together a Ben Mallers super Bowl party because there's so many people looking for parties and themes and whatnot, and I never was able to pull it off. And I

haven't heard from her in several years. And plus with all the the COVID stuff, you know, it's like that's there's a lot of there's not a lot going on. But I'm hoping, Danny that since we'll be on a big sports station, I'll be on overnights doing the radio show and they'll be listening that somehow I can finagle my way and hopefully I can get you too to go to one of the parties next week, because it's gonna be on like Donkey Kong on Friday and Saturday

in La La Landy. Even with all the restrictions and all that, it is going to be insane. Yeah, as long as it's over by nine pm. I'm tired an old man, Now, what's wrong with you? How dare you with that? I'm just kidding. There's lots of cocaine at those parties, those Hollywood Hills, those Hollywood nights, Danny, those Hollywood nights, they never ever. And next up Robin Vegas with another question, Bo Gardening the questions Robin Vegas, he says, for both you and Danny g what was the greatest

wrestling faction of all time? Here's some examples, he says, the Four Horsemen, uh n wo. He's got Nation of Domination, Evolution, the Shield, few of them in there. Well, I'll go first on this. I loved the Heart Foundation back in the of the day. I'm old school, and I don't know if this counts. Put Bobby the Brain Heiner and his family kind of ruled the roost. I don't if that counts by your definition of a wrestling faction. And briefly, I was a fan of uh. This guy actually worked

with him at a wrestling event. Visceray, massive black guy that was a wrestler for years. He died, but in the late nineties I was a celebrity manager at a wrestling event and he was. He was one of the acts in the locker room, so we kind of hung out. And he was very nice man, very massive man, very nice, soft spoken, out of character, stoft smoking, and he was briefly in the minister of Darkness. You're you're in the Ministry of dark you remember the Ministry of dark Time,

don't you remember that? But but he was the Undertaker, was on that. He was part of that. When we were kids, my mom didn't let us watch a lot of wrestling on TV, so I don't know a lot about factions rob but she sure the held didn't monitor my older brother in the backyard doing wrestling moves on me any chance he got. He was drawn to rowdy Roddy Piper. We talked about this when we did the six line salute for Piper back in the day on

your show. Yeah, my older brother, he would drop me, he would pile drive me on my head in the backyard, and he would say, I'm rowdy roddy Piper. So yeah, I have some really good childhood memories there and some bad back problems. Now, yeah, for sure, I have tremendous wrestling memories. I got fat eating those w W E ice cream bars. Those were the best. And I was convinced that I could balance it out because hul Cogan told me to take these vitamins and then I'd be good.

And so I had all all the products. I had all everything. Alright, come back, it's from all right Terry in England, right, and he says one for Danny G After spending so much of your time at FS are Danny, do you want back in the big chair behind the mic on your own show? You have the pipes for sure,

says Terry in England. What do you think, Danny? Yeah, well, you know I got to do ten twelve years of morning shows in afternoon shows where I was the main host, looking for you on the studio line to be college seventeen. Right now, good luck for a pair of earth Wind and Fire concept tickets for all of this first and thousand oaks with Q one oh four seven all the Flame. We're going to kick off that stack of music we were talking about. All right, so let me see right

next to a net, very disoriented. Let's see maybe on green night quill. All right, just say no kids, if you're listening right now, all right, thank you, Um, that's a net our number four guests, Thank you for being patient for these earth Wind and Fire. Six. See, we gotta at least get you to kind of no get you gotta get to know that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know what's up? Eight oh five? This is or the

flavor right now? Seven? You better know. I'm representing, but anti ty, there's good things on both sides of it, you know. I I do like being in the producer chair. So I don't know, we'll see. Maybe I'll be on the five year Jonas Knox plan. We don't need to bring Jonas in. We're all go from janitor to hosting mornings on the East Coast? Was it five years or ten years for Jonas? Um? You know what is time? Danny? I don't know. It can happen though, right. You work hard,

you do every single position you can at the net work. Yeah, and then you can be in the big chairs. So yeah, I mean I'm working hard. So hopefully that's the path I'm on. You can light me on fire with no hose. Sure, and I think this podcast will help. The numbers are good, and so you can sell that and say, hey, what about let me do a spin off or something like that. Yeah,

and Jonas has proven that you can do it. Yeah. Well, when I worked at six nineties in San Diego, the guy that was the Jonas there was John Cantera and he's uh, he was like the the guy when you needed a light bulb fixed, you called John. And then he ended up posting a high school football show on Fridays that gave scores from around high school games and it was pretty popular in the days before the Internet,

long time ago, the Stone age. And then he that he parleyed that into a night show and then he kept going and going and going and going and going and going and going. So yeah, there are there are ways to pull it off. As they said, I got mail, Yeah, I got mail. Queen Roxanne in Colorado, right, she says, Hey, guys, who do you think will be my next player? I love since Tom Brady retired. Uh she sent that earlier

this week. So as you know, Danny, Queen Roxanne, it's it's like remember Major League Joe vu uh Serrano had to in this lockery and the whole thing that is essentially Queen Roxanne with Tom Brady. She's got her own shrine Brady. Yeah, she's a big Brady fan. And so I'm gonna go and say, there's there's two options here. There's Josh Allen and Buffalo and Joe Burrow. I'm going Joe Burrow because Josh Allen's a little too close to

the Patriots and the Brady was with the Pagos. So I'm gonna say Joe Burrow got a little bit of a weird look, got a little bugeye thing going on there, but he's smoothed. Joe Burrow is smooth on the field and he's gonna be He's kind of a similar style the Brady the way they played. Obviously not saying that Brady, but he's got a similar kind of way to him. So I think she's gonna go and gravitate to Joe Burrow.

What say you, Danny j Yeah, when he was doing that post game with those yellowish sunglasses, I couldn't tell. He's like half nerd and half pim. Yeah, there's a lot going on. Yeah, it could go either way, but I guess Joe Burrow wouldn't be a bad option. I mean, unless she wants to have Jimmy G back in the fold. Where where is Jimmy gonna start at next season? Ben? Yeah? Well so, uh, the the odds, the Mallard wheel of speculation, and I had Tennessee was on that Tampa Bay Washington promise.

Those are NF Washington Tampa Bay NFC teams had Indianapolis also on the Mallard wheel speculation because they want to get rid of Carson Wins. So I could see Jimmy G in Indianapolis kind of sliding in there. For a guy that sucks in big moments quite a bit, he's gonna have a lot of people knocking down his door saying, hey,

what about me? What about me? Yeah, And I saw females on social media who were Rams fans saying, oh my god, I can't believe my Rams one, but Jimmy G can still get it and like making comments like that, like they still like Jimmy G even though they were happy he lost against the Rams. So it seems like Queen rocks down if he slides in to Brady's shoes there in Tampa Bay. He could be a quick replacement

for your shrine. Yeah, that's that is true because he was, you know, he touched by Brady and that all right. Next up Carlos and Houston writes, and he says, have either of you guys gone to Buggies? You know what Bucky's is? It's like a crazy gas station convenience store place. I don't We don't have any out here, he says. Uh. Anyway, he loves loves it. He says, the ralph drops are killing me, guys, so he enjoys. See there's a there's a vote for this, but that Bucky's I've not been to.

I saw a YouTube video actually, and they had they stayed at this place for like twenty four hours and it was looked really awesome. It's similar in Texas, like the biggest truck stop convenience place and it was pretty neat, and I would like to go. I am planning on doing some driving across the country when I go to North Carolina for that wedding I have to go to.

I think we're gonna make it a little bit longer trip because they didn't get a trip in December because I had COVID the whole freaking time that I was supposed to be on vacation. So those kind of like the pilot that we have out here in California. Yeah, but that the pilots all over the country. But this is like, this is bigger from what I saw. It's big.

I'm looking for. They their chain there in Texas, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, some locations in Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Tennessee, and South Carolina. So I don't know if I'm gonna run into one where I'm going. I don't think I will be. I won't be that far south, so I don't think I'll be able to run in. I would like that place, So you know, the pilot saved my life. Like ten years ago, I was staying with a girlfriend. It was like a serious thing for a moment. She turned out

to be batshit crazy. Before I realized that she kicked me out and it was for an offense, ben that it was something I didn't do, but she was claiming I did something wrong. So she kicks me out and I was stuck. I had to sleep in my car, So what do you do before work? I had to take a shower. So I went to the pilot, rented the shower like I was a truck driver. Yeah, shaved, showered, got dressed there in a private stall, and Boom went

to work. Screw you. You can't stop me driver. Yeah, no, that's all I last time I was at a truck stop. Um moving man. Matt from Boston was out here in l A and Ontario, and I went to I was like, wow, this is pretty cool man. So they got a little everything here at these They got a couple of restaurants, they got the place you can shower. You can yeah that. I was like, this is not too bad here. And then he was feeling me on a lot lizards and I was like a lot lizards. I don't know about that.

And then Ben, a veteran move if you're ever in a pinch like I was whatever ten twelve years ago, park next to one of the semis where they're sleeping and you're sleeping in your car and people won't bother you if you are one of the rivers. Yeah, absolutely, all right. We gotta get out here. Damn we got places go. People see things that do or maybe none of those things. Because the Sunday extravaganza, but thank you again.
