Science

into the magic podcast world. Here the Fifth Hour with Ben Maller And as a gift to you the listener, another podcast Unsullied by David Gascon. The ratings are going to be through the roof on this podcast. We do it now because hey listen, four hours a night not enough. Eight day is a week, and we thank you for subscribing and finding This podcast is available on the I Heart Network, Apple podcast wherever you get your podcast, and

there are a zillion ways to get this podcast. And as always, if you want a personalized video shout out, even a Mallard monologue of Mini Mallar monologue can do that. On Cameo dot com to search my name up. It's not free, but it's not much. And that's on cameo dot com for a big birthday wedding bar mitzvah, you name it. I don't know. We're all good, we're all good on that. But we are joined because the West of the four oh five cannot uh rear his ugly face.

So in his place a wrestler, a man who has popped up on this podcast in the past, making his return engagement, the great Ryan Smith is here with no and you don't have any cane sound effects when when you're introduced they noticed no I do not. All I have is this anger for Kawhi Leonard right now. That's all I have. Yeah, Ryan, the reason we're allowing Ryan to do the podcast is because he's a good human being. He's a good person. He's a Clipper fan uh and

you're you're just a better person. Ryan. I think you should be running the company. I think you should move up because you understand, in the compound where we work, we are surrounded by infidels, these uh, these laker historians. Everywhere you turn, you're one of the few, You're one of the proud. You wander the brave a Clipper fan. Every Laker fan I've talked to was so happy that the Clippers were eliminated. I don't know why they care about us, but they were just so happy that the

Clippers got knocked out. Well, I'll tell you why, Ryan. First of all, the reason that the Laker historian is bothered by the Clippers because Clipper fans are authentic. The Clipper fan is real. Anybody can be a Laker historian and talking about all the greatness of the Lakers and all that. That's easy. Being a supporter of the Clippers shows you've got moxie, you've got gumption. These are things that the rank and file of the Laker historian fan

base does not have. They don't have this like they get so upset, like on on the Overnight Show. I know, Roberto and Coop go, they go enraged over the great Clipper Daryl. Clipper Darryll is more authentic than any one that has ever attended a Laker game, and it bothers them. The Lakers appeal to the Hollywood phonies, and they everything that's wrong with l A the tinseltown. The Clippers appeal

to the working class. They're the they're the people's team, and it ryan it drives them that they cannot handle us, because that is a reality. I've you know, many emails I've got the Clippers are gonna go to Seattle. They're gonna least they're gonna go to Seattle. Yeah, it's ridiculous. I talked to a girl once, she's a quote unquote Laker fan, and I asked her why she hates the Clippers so much, and she looked at me, straightened my eyes, and said, well, the Clippers don't even play in the

same arena. That's why. Um okay, yeah, okay, Well that's gonna be even more embarrassing. Like the Laker The people follow Lakers like, well, get out of Staples Center. You know, have you seen the design of the new arena the Clippers are building in Inglewood. It is the tarj Ma Hall. It's gonna make Staples Center look like an outhouse by the time this place is done. And so the Lakers will be playing at an inferior arena. They have an inferior owner. And it's I mean, it's just it's it's

got to be annoying. I understand why I would get upset too. The Clippers are. They're not the new kid on the boy. The Clippers have been in l A since the nineteen the mid nineteen eighties, they moved from San Diego. It's not like this showed up all that now. The first thirty years they were in l A they were terrible. But yeah, it is frustrating watching the NBA Finals with Janice Adenta Coombo as mostly a decoy and the Son. I'm telling you, Ryan, I look at that

sunst I'm not impressed. Are you impressed? Ryan? With the Sun? That they were beatable and the Clippers didn't have y Leonard and you felt like they were matching the blow for blow until Game six. The Suns had the easiest path to the NBA Finals, and it's not even close.

Every every series someone was hurt, they got lucky. And the difference between the Suns and the reason it's more blasphemy is we've seen this happen where guys get hurt, but usually it's like in the NBA Finals or something like that, or the conference finals, but not every round. I cannot recall every round of plus I member. People bring up Kawhi leon and when it was with Toronto and they won it, and obviously they won in large

part because Golden State collapsed. They because of injury, with Clay Thompson and Durant getting hurt in the NBA Finals. But before that, it wasn't like every team they played in the Eastern Conference had a star player hurt. Literally and figuratively. Every single opponent the Sons have had has had one of their top players or two of their top players not there. It's it's it's I want to pull what's left in my hair out here right in with this when people people say that, no, that's not true.

Mine ridiculous. Well, Alice, we can finally say what I've always been been saying to everybody that Doc Rivers was the problem. Yes, yes, and also the dumb dumbers, well, the Clippers, they didn't want to play the Lakers in the place. They had the opportunity to choose the path they want. They chose the right path. They chose the right They would have won the championship had Kawhi later not gotten hurt. So those idiots that were like, I can't believe they lost to Houston in Oklahoma City at

the end of the regular season, that was genius. Do it again, Do it again. And how listen you mentioned Doc Rivers, the stooge. How how good a coach is ty Lou? I thought I was worried Ryan, as a fellow Clipper guy. I was worried that he just rode Lebron James Cotils with with the calves and I was like, I don't know if this guy can coach at all. But he proved himself. He absolutely proved himself in this playoff run. The Clippers have one of the better coaches

in the NBA. That's awesome. He's a good coach. But I'm kind of blaming him for the Game two loss against the Sons. On that last play. He should have been able to He should have told his players, look, this is what they're gonna do. And I don't know, maybe he told Cousins to do something, but Cousins didn't do it. I don't know what in the world, Bookie Cousins was thinking, Yeah, well, I think you who I blame.

I blame DeAndre Ayton, who grabs zoo box jersey And that's that's If that was outside the arena, that would be assault. He would have been charged with a salt and he got away with it. And the referees giving the Sons what they have half an hour to come up with the final play, and they could, you know, draw seven different versions, and of course they winking. And now we can't be We'll be remiss if we didn't bring up Paul George, by George, who famously missed two

foul shots to two, make one. You missed the first to make the second. That's how you're supposed to, Ryan. You could make one of two. I could make one of two. I have no athletic ability this point my life anymore. But I could make one of two. I can flash back to Moneyball Maller and make one of two. I could he chokes? He did, he did, and he still should have won the Even with that, they still

should have won the game. The Clippers. The Clippers outscored the Songs by seven teen points the first five games of the Western Conference Finals, and then the rug got pulled out from underneath them in the in the final game. But man, oh man, oh man, enough all right, anyway, that's that's not That was some hot Clipper talk, Ryan, that you're a Clipper fan. I can do hot Clipper talk. When that other guy west of the four oh five is here when his pompous ask this here, I can't

do that because he's a Laker historian. I'm not allowed to do it. It's a bandwagon fan. Yeah, he's a typical and West of the four oh five guy, you know, Lady Dah and all that name dropper and he's got that smarmy arrogance to him. And as a Clipper guy, we're men of the people, right, we were relatable clearly? Absolutely? Yeah. Right, So I have sweet Spot, I've got that. Also, we've got pop Quiz and uh, we'll get scientifical before we

get to pop quiz. We we didn't even have time last week for pop quizz, so we have some pop quiz questions standing by. But the Sweet Spots story is rather simple. So the podcast is about me. I guess that sounds awkward saying that, but the people on the podcast about us. This week it's about me and Ryan because Ryan's in the podcast here. So uh, some of my cousins. I have cousins all over the Mallard family. The tentacles of my family are all over the country,

most of them no longer in California. I'm one of the few people left in California. So I have family in in Arizona. I have some family, a lot of family in New York, Chicago, Wisconsin, Michigan, some in Florida. Like they're spread out all over, like all over the place. Um. So some of my cousins were in town from Michigan, right, and it was really good to see them, considering I hadn't really seen anybody, none of us had with the

whole COVID thing, at least extended family. So, um, my cousin Marcy was in town from from Michigan and her husband John, and you know, seeing seeing my cousin it brought back great memories because I remember going to family reunions and this is my dad's side of the family, and there was like this this connection and media is I got flashing back to when I was like thirteen years old or something like that. It was great. So I went over to see them they were in town,

and I had a grand time. With a couple of hiccups though, And so I thought the perfect platformed event would be the podcast. And so I'm gonna vent to you about the hiccups at the Mallard Meet and Greet Family Edition. So, first of all, My wife is a social butterfly. She absolutely loves these type of events, and I typically loathe them. Now. I like seeing family, but the social engagement. I'm int introvert, so I like them to have have limits. My wife is an extrovert. She

does not believe in having any limits. So we cruised over to my my cousin's house for a meet and greet with my other cousins and them. Uh. This was behind the Orange Curtain in southern California. So I'm sitting around the living room there and we're all telling stories. We're all telling stories. That's what you do, right, family get together to tell stories. Right, what have you been up to the last year, year and a half. They were asking stories about my dad and you know, everything

that went on his last few days. And so after about fifteen minutes, I start sweating and I'm I'm like really sweating, like I'm sitting in a sauna. It's extremely hot. Its now, this is at night, it's not during the day. We're indoors and it is just oppressively hot. It's like I'm in the Sahara desert and I'm thinking, well, it must have the heater or on what what is the heat index here? This is insane here. Uh. It got so bad that my glasses started fogging up. I'm like,

I'm just sitting having a conversation. It was very I did. I did take my hat off and wipe my brow because it was sweat coming down. It was it was like I was in a in a fitness club in the sauna. So later on we were getting a tour of a really a beautiful house and we walked by the air conditioner and I noticed the temperature in in the home. And at that time, the temperature was what do you think it was, Ryan? In the house? What

do you think it was? Now? It wasn't that high, but it felt like degrees It was eighty three degrees. Who the hell keeps their house at three degrees? What? Ryan? You where where you live? What do you typically keep the temperature as cool as possible? But but my A unit sucks, so it's usually like around like seven whatever hot. Oh that's terrible. Yeah. I am a big believer in living in an ice box. I you cannot get cold enough,

and so I always have my air conditioning. I keep it insanely cool, especially during the day, which is the worst time. But I sleep during the day, so I have to have I can't sleep if it's hot, if I'm sweating and all that. Anyway, so this is I get back to the story. So to me, that's an insane indoor temperature to each the room. It's not my house with him, so I'm trying to deal with it. And then the next thing that really was a hiccup for me is and it was very polite, very cordial.

The host of the event brought out a tray of gigantic homemade chocolate chip cookies, like the size of your hand with all your fingers extended like that big. If you gotta I gotta big, maybe you don't. So here's the problem, Ryan, So I wouldn't have had an issue with I mean, I'm staring these gooey, delicious chocolate chip cookies and I can't touch them because I had already started my fast. You know, I'm I am a hardcore

inter minute faster. So once I stopped eating, once I put the fork down, I'm done until like the next day. And so I had already started my fast and it was late at night, and I don't like to you know, I don't like to eat late at night in anyway, that's just kind of my my missions. And so I'm staring at these unbelievably great looking cookies and it reminded me of back when I used to go to the ballet.

And you know, when you go to the ballet, Ryan, you can look, but you can't you can't touch, you know that kind of like I could look at the cookies, but I couldn't touch the And then the other, the other, the other hiccup. Here is this thing dragged on and on. Now, I think you're a little bit like me, right, although you were a wrestler, so maybe you're more of an extrovert. But I'm an introvert, and I believe that these events

should have a cap on them. I believe that. And so this went way past the two hour mark, and on the way home, I had a conversation and I explained with my social butterfly, my significant other. I said, listen, these social events should be like Vegas shows or movies. You know what Vegas shows and movies are like, Ryan, I have a vague idea. Yeah, they're ninety minutes that if you talk to anybody who does a Vega show, ninety minutes that's the perfect amount of time for a show.

Not in sixties, not enough. People feel like they haven't gotten their money's worth at sixty minutes. Anything over nineties a little bit too much. That people want to go out and do other things. They don't want to be there past ninety minutes. And so I tried to explain this. My wife disagrees. She thinks these things should go on as long as possible. She's upset that we stopped after like two and a half hour. She wanted to keep going. And so my belief is about a ninety minute cap

less is more. That's my strategy on social events. Leave them wanting more? Am I wrong? Ryan? Am I? Am? I bad to to think that we should cap these things at ninety minutes. It depends on the show. Yeah, No, this is a family event. Though I'm talking about a family event, I'm talking about getting together with people that I like that I've seen I haven't seen since a lot of them since I was a kid, and I haven't been able to see him in years and all that.

But I'm still like ninety minutes. Ninety minutes is good. That's what I'm talking about. Ninety minutes, Okay, I think I think you're right. I think you're onto something. Now for me, that's too long to be around anybody because I just don't like people. So I would go less than ninety minutes. But okay, well, I'm okay for ninety because my wife will talk sixty and I can do the other thirty and then I'm out, so she'll talk most of the time. She could talk all ninety minutes.

But yeah, yeah, if I was by myself, i'd be good with about ten minutes and then that's it and then get out of here and go to something else. That would be my my strategy. But it was like it was crazy. It was like one thing. It was like a three studies are a Vaudeville comedy act, right, which is the three stoogies where you hit they I'm fasting, they bring the cookies out, I'm sweating. I think my glasses are fogging up. Uh. You know, it's just like

the whole thing. The whole thing was one thing after it was a colossal series of errors that took place there. But that was my my big getting out, my big weekend. You didn't see anything that was too hot. You just said nothing. No, I wanted to be polite. I didn't want to be rude and all that. I just wanted to be polite and just gonna, you know, not be a douche and so I thought I would be a douchey thing to say going about it. You can just say, do you mind if I live? Because that's great. But

nobody else complained. I was waiting for somebody else to come, and nobody else complained. It only takes one then if somebody else will say, you know what, he's onto something, So that would have started like the trickle down effect and everyone would have started singing the blues about how hot it was. Yes, I think so, all right, well next time hopefully, well hopefully there won't be next time. But where it's eighty three eighty, you know, I'm sure by the time we got out of it was probably

like seven. And I mean, jeez, I can't I can't imagine they were warm blooded people. I guess, but I'm cold blooded. I like it cold. I like it cold. Absolutely. Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm PACIFICIC on Fox Sports Radio and the I Heart Radio app alright, so let's get scientifical. Scientifically, there are science stories that I have found around the internet and I thought they

were interesting. I want to bring them up. So one of the great debates that many people have you if you're in a relationship with someone, just in a family, one of the debates that often happens is over toilet paper and how to properly hang toilet paper over or under? There are two ways to hang toilet paper. We all need toilet paper in the modern first world that we live in. So how is the correct way? What is

the correct way to hang toilet papers? Now? First of all, before we I have the answer, by the way, But Ryan, are you a over or under a toilet paper? Guy? Over? That's that's easy. It's always over, al right, So I agree with you. I'm an over person. My wife comes from a family of unders under toilet paper. I've also dealt with this. I have relatives to believe in the under technique with the toilet paper. But big news here, we now have confirmation. This goes back to eight eight three.

You know who Seth Wheeler is? Have you ever heard her name? Seth Wheeler? Uh sounds like a radio host. It does sound like a DJ, but no. Seth Wheeler is one of the most important people in in in the history of the world. He patented he was the inventor of the toilet rule. And think about that. If you live before eight three, you did not have a toilet rule. You did not have that. But Seth Wheeler

his genius, his innovation. He's been dead for many years and we still use every restaurant on bar, hotel, you name it that has a bathroom, every house, every apartment, they have the toilet paper roll. And this guy invented it, and he was granted a patent in three And in the patent they went back and looked at the patent. It reveals the proper way to hang toilet paper on the holder is over the top. So if you're hanging it underneath, you're doing it wrong. You're doing it wrong.

You're violating the memory of Seth Wheeler, the inventor of the toilet roll. Now do you go cheap on the toilet paper or you go all out? Let me let me stop you right there. Let me say this is one of the I am very frugal, I'm a tight wad, I'm a noted tight wad like I'll reuse plastic forks like that kind of tight wad occasionally. But when it comes to toilet paper, I'm on the upper east side. I'm buying the most expensive Sharman I can get, like

the you know, seven ply whatever. I'm all a that I want comfort from my tokas is what I want, and so I will spend what Yeah, because that that cheap toilet papers sucks terrible. Let me give you some advice. Whenever you're going to a job for the first time, check what's Check to see what type of toilet paper they use, because because if it's cheap, the company's cheap. That's a fact. Are you taking a shot at the

people we work for? Such thing? I said, no, such thing, because I have seen the toilet paper that is in the building there. It's not particularly good. And here's another thing, fun fact. Here's a fun fact for you right on this toilet paper. So the story that went back and looked at the patent from three experts are warning that if you hang the toilet paper underneath, you increase your risk of coming into contact with bacteria. It's a health risk.

So you're risking the health of people when you hang the toilet paper roll under instead of over. It's a great life lesson right there, that it's a great life lesson. Alright, Moving on on, let's get scientifical. So there's a strange signal that is coming from the Milky Way. Have you seen this story recently? And they're trying to figure out

what's causing it. This actually goes back to the day before my birthday, April, and there's a They've got all these ground radio telescopes that are trying to hear aliens in space and they never hear anything. This time they did. They finally heard something. Holy crap, right, that's big. They detected an intense pulse of radio waves. How about that radio waves? Do you think there's other DJs out there

in the cosmos in the Milky Way somewhere now. Unfortunately it only lasted some a few milliseconds, but the people in that business, the astronomers, were said to be completely gobsmacked and astonished, and this is seen as a major discovery.

It represents the first time ever that what they call an f R be a fast radio burst radio waves had ever been detected this close to Mother Earth, and they estimated that the radio waves came from a location in the galaxy thirty They say it's just thirty thousand light years from from Earth, so it's within the Milky Way. And they're they're still investigating. I don't know what kind of investigative work you can do, but that's pretty cool,

pretty cool. It was like a sports radio show. They were doing sports talk, and they shot the radio waves up and it came all the way to us. Yeah. They're saying stuff like, yeah, Tom Brady's a cheater, stuff like that. Yeah, makes sense. You wash the mouth that was soap and water there. What he's a fraud, You're a phony. I hate Tom Brady. He hates you too. Good. Good,

go buy some of those TV twelve electrolytes. Thro it. Yeah, use it for toilet paper, just like we send radio waves out when we broadcast, not on the podcast, but on radio. Do you think there's some goblins and aliens out there? I don't think they're gobheads. No, no goblins, no, no goblins no, no, all right? What if they looked just like us? How disappointing would it be if there's aliens out far out in deep space and they just look like us. They're just like human beings like us

wouldn't be a bummer. I'm pretty sure, especially because of last year. When aliens fly past Earth they roll up their windows. I'm pretty sure they don't want to get COVID, so they want they want no part of us. So like you're like, f this, No, we're not doing it. If we still had neander of falls walking the planet, they'd be like, they'd be more into the Neanderthals. Is that what you're saying? Yeah, I guys, uh, speaking of Neanderthals.

They say in the science community is the common Cold likely predates humans and say say it likely the plague affected Neanderthals seven hundred thousand years ago. How the hell did they know this? By the way, I don't know. I don't get that, but that's what they claim. They claim. There's a lot of maze coods. We you know, a lot of weasel words in these science stories or thinks like this one. The NASA administrative guy named Bill Nelson

thinks that's a thought, not a confirmation. Thinks there is intelligent life in the universe beyond our own. Of course, of course, if you if you ever go to a place where there's not a lot of sun poisoning outside the city and go out to the desert or the ocean far offshore and look to the heavens. The math on that, it's just your your mind's gonna explode thinking about that. So yeah, come on, it's up with that, and we still can't cure the common cold. Nice, Yeah,

not just a comic. I mean they're like you look at cancer and all the all the all the illnesses, Like I still I think the answers though, are here, they just got we haven't found them. Like I, all the all the problems are on Earth, and all the answers on Earth. That's been my theory, Like to every illness, there's a solution somewhere on the planet. You just have to find it. That's the hard part. Well, good news, good news from the science community. We will all be

saved by China. China has announced a plan to launch a rocket fleet. The goal of the rocket fleet kind of sounds like what President Trump had planned these space fleet, you know, space Army whatever it was, space force. Yeah, So China taking a page out of Trump's playbook, They're gonna come up with the their own military plan. They're gonna launch rock a rocket fleet to divert ay a apocalyptic asteroid heading towards Earth, so we'll be saved by China.

Assuming this works, I'm gonna in my life now where I wouldn't I wouldn't mind if that asteroid hit Earth. You'd be good checking out. I'm good, I'm good. Just do it, all right, you know you had enough. I'll read it that Jay, catch you next time. Nice, All right, let's see. I uh, well, this is bad news for you, Ryan. A loneliness can take years off your life. You know,

are you a lonely guy? Ryan? You do? You don't like people, You don't want to hang around with people, right, Yeah, But when I'm by myself, I'm happy, So it's totally fine. All right. Well, according to a report out of Singapore, a medical school in Singapore revealed that adults over the age of sixties, so you don't have to worry about that at least for a few years, say you know, many years. Say that. Sometimes are always people that feel, you know, lonely. They end up dying up too. That's

a weasel term. Up to up to off is actually like one percent of anyway up to five years sooner. Then they're contemporaries who don't feel lonely. So try not to be lonely. And if you're happy by yourself, and that's fine. I think these happy people, quote unquote happy people are upset that I'm happy because I'm by myself and I want to be I want to be left the hell alone. Well that's true, that's true. Like when I was at my fattest, people always said, what do

you lose weight? You should be more like me, you know you, you must not be happy, And I was like the happiest I could possibly be, eating as much food as I wanted. I loved it. I was a fatass. I was morbidly obese, and I loved every meal. I didn't feel bad, but I moved around fine. But everyone was like, oh, you should really lose some weight. You should be more like you know this person or that person.

They're like, no, I'm perfectly content. I'm perfectly happy. But the problem with that when you get older, you can't really can't do that, because it does. That's just that's just an old wives tale, you think. So, have you ever gone to a retirement home and seeing fat people? There aren't many there, There aren't or tall people for that matter. That's the other thing. I'm screwed. Then, yeah,

I'm screwed too. So how tall you? Um, I'm about I'm about that same hight too, So yeah, we're we're screwed, all right. A new report, let's get to this is the pop quiz portion. We'll do a few pop quiz questions and then we'll put the baby to bed. So a new report says that you are more likely to give this item as a gift than you are to ever buy this item for yourself. There's something you would never buy, but you would give someone else as a gift.

What do you think this is? Uh m, condoms? Condoms? All right? Wow boy, wow, Okay, you ever given condoms to someone? There? Maybe a date? No? Uh the The answer is a blender. Blender. I'm not I'm not a big blender guy. I like the blender box, but I'm not a big blender guy. So yeah, I've never bought a blender. I think I don't know if I got one when I got married. That sounds like a gift you'd give someone who gets married, buy him a blender.

That's a marriage gift. Yeah, yeah, and then it sits in a box in a cabinet for thirty years, and you're like, oh, we had a blender. All right. This is the first thing that most people think about every single day. Everything, the first thing you think about every day. What is it? Why do I have to go to work? No? Sleep? No, it's sleep. It's like, why can't I go back to sleep? Can I? You hate your job, don't you? No? No, I hate you hate working? Come on, that's not true.

This is a great place to work. I'm very happy here. It would be a better place if they paid you more money. I cannot confirm or deny those comments. If they gave you more time off, I mean more money. A little bump, a little bumpty bump, you know, all right. A new survey asked people what they missed the most while working from from home. This was the most common answer, what is it? Oh? I was never working from home, so I couldn't tell you I was always here. Now,

you don't need to brag. You don't need to what's not bragging? I'm mad? You're mad. Well, you happen to choose a job that you cannot do. At least they won't they won't spend the thousands of dollars on the equipment that is required for you to do it from home. So just think of the Hoi POLOI think of the Hoiah. I know you could have been in the empty hallways of fs are. Yes, no one's right. But what do you what do you think of? Oh? Wow, I don't know.

All right, now, this is actually good because it's good for people like us that work in this business. According to the survey, the thing that people missed most while working from home was listening to the radio on their commute. Listening to radio and people realize, you can listen to the radio at home. I know nobody does that, but you can. You can listen at home. You don't have to listen in the car. We have a lot of people that listen to the podcast that aren't in the car.

I don't think a lot of people listen to the radio at home. I think they're usually watching TV or getting drunk. I disagree, Ryan, I believe in my head it's like the early days of radio, and people sit around in their nice chairs and they focus at the magic radio box and just listen everything going on. Yeah, now, but we we actually get a lot of people. I get email from people that have insomnia and they're trying

to sleep and they'll turn the radio on. It's like a little background noise and listen to the show while they're in bed and they can't sleep. And so we do have some of those people, but I would obviously agree that most of our listeners are live listening audiences like truck drivers, security guards, people working in factories, doughnut shops, you know whatever.

What's up everyone, It's me three times NFL All Pro Shawn Marine and I have a new sports podcast called The lights Out Podcast with Sean Marine. This podcast especial to me is I get a chance to talk to some of the best we've ever done

it on the field or the trap. So whether it's talking to a Super Bowl champion or a NASCAR Cup Series champion, the lights Out Podcast will bring it to you the only way I know how to. I'm giving you the best insight for the best we've ever done it. Listen to lights Out with Shawn Mari or the I Heart Radio app or wherever you get your podcast. About six people say this happens to them nearly every day. It involves their phone and email. What is it? They get a lot of spam? Look at you, look at you.

You gotta write good job, but yes, get a spam call, spam text, or email. I got a spam call at least three or four times a week. Yeah, it's terrible. I actually recently because I've I'm living in a halfway house right now. I'm in the temporary home before I move again in August. And so just I sold a house for the first time ever. I never sold a house. And so I sold the house. And you have to fill out all his paperwork and all that, and a lot of that stuff ends up getting shipped around, a

lot of your personal information. So as a result, I have been inundated over the last couple of weeks with spam calls, and I every time I block them, it doesn't matter. They it's like whack a mole. You block one, three, more pop up. It's NonStop. I don't know how they do it. They like figure out that, oh, this person's

blocked this number that's called from a different number. Yeah, well, and they have have what I've heard is they have endless numbers because it's all these numbers just generated digitally. So it's like I have a computer that just generates different numbers to call from. So you literally and figuratively cannot win a block. The block the you know what, Block the trolls, block the spammers. You can't do it. You can't win, because they'll just pop up with a

new number five minutes later. Sometimes when on board, I'll answer and almost a mess with them, you know, on the ones. I have you gotten the ones? The ones I've been getting a lot lately.
