Speaker 2 (09:45):
We're talking behind the scenes while Jelly Roll was singing
here with Michael Jay and Bethany. You know he's trying
to eat better. He's lost over two hundred pounds. We're
thinking about how we I know, I'm thinking about like,
you know, I would really like to lose a little bit, Bethany,
I really would. I've got the I've got the little
bit over my belt, Okay, And I'm wondering. We were

(10:08):
talking about foods that Americans don't like.

Speaker 1 (10:11):
Yeah, I have a survey here the list of foods
that Americans dishete or dislike hate the most.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
So let me ask you, Uh, liver you said is
on the list, because I can't stand.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
That anchovies and liver are the two most hated foods.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
Now, but what about liver worst? I gotta find out.
Is that the same as liver? I don't I don't know.

Speaker 5 (10:32):
And you made a face when and I said I
like brownswagger.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
I don't know a brownswagger that's liver worst with mustard
on a sandwich. Oh, I can't be the only person
who loves that.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
You love that?

Speaker 2 (10:45):
Yeah? Are you serious?

Speaker 9 (10:46):
Now?

Speaker 5 (10:47):
I don't eat it all the time.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
And I just said I need to lose a few pounds,
and that is one thing that I probably would try
to cut that out.

Speaker 1 (10:53):
Then, actually, nine percent of people say they love liver.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
Oh, yeah, which is My mom apparently loves it. And
when we were kids, she was like.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
You're gonna sit there until you eat all of your liver.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
And I would be there till tomorrow morning because I
would not eat liver. I just and it was usually
liver and onions, and that would actually make it even
worse for me.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
Well, onions is one of the most hated foods.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
Too.

Speaker 5 (11:19):
Well, here it is.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
Brownswagger is a type of liver sausage, often referred to
as liver worst.

Speaker 5 (11:26):
Yeah, you get it comes in a tube and you
cut it.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
Are you serious? Yes, you've never you've really never had brownswager? No,
I had it. Apparently I had a good mom. I've
never heard of it. That's seven seven nine sixty two.
Where somebody support me? Eight hundred and three two one
thirty six ninety three. Tell me you haven't had brownswager.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
Oh, I'm gonna go down some of the diabolical foods.

Speaker 2 (11:54):
Okay, can you let me know where you used to? Yeah, anchobies.
I love anchovies. I don't get them all the time,
but I like them on pizza. Liver you said, yes, no,
a liver worst. I don't like liver. I like brown swagger,
So I don't know. It's like, where does liver and
liver worst? And they say it's a liver sausage.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
Right, So you take a liver and you grab but
it tastes totally different.

Speaker 2 (12:17):
It's not the same thing. Sardines.

Speaker 5 (12:21):
I dig them. I used to when I was a
little kid. My dad.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
This was a father son thing. He'd wake up and
he's like, we've already had dinner. He's like, you want
a late nights and neck. You want to go open
up a can of sardines and you get the little
key and you would wind it and would open up
the top of the tin. You get them. They'd be
in mustard or tomato sauce. Yeah, a little fish. What's
happening at the Michael J. Residence? Okay? What about tofu?

(12:47):
It's tasteless to me. Okay, squid, but I can eat it.
I love squid caviar. Now it depends how that would
go back to the squid for a second. It depends
how it's calamari, right, and it depends how it's prepared.
I don't like it when it I mean I can
do without it when just fried has got all that
battering around it.

Speaker 5 (13:04):
Yeah, I love it.

Speaker 2 (13:05):

me get this straight.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
You're gonna eat liver sausage, but you don't want blue cheese.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
Brown swagger with mustard is great, That's totally. Blue cheese
is no way for me. What about hit lings? You know,
I've never tried them. Really, No, I've never had chitlins.
I've had that chitlins and that's that's soul food. Yeah,

but my sister was forcety.

Uh huh yeah, liver just it stares at you when
it's laying on the plate. You know what I mean,
and it says I'm not gonna taste it.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
Though sargines weren't like hat, the sardines still heard the
eyes in them.

he thinks the pumper nickel would overpower. But I definitely
would agree that Jewish rye would be perfect. Toasted with
your brown schwagger and the mustard. Can I bring some
in and have you try it? I don't think so.
You know you're not going to go for it. Would

Speaker 4 (20:01):
Ninety three point one w p C.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
Now try if you have a young son or daughter
who looks at baseball as is, you know it's life.
I know there are kids like this who live and
die by what's going on. It is life changing for
the rest of us Oriole fans who have grown up.
You know, Cedric Mullins, Bethany was here for eight years,

(20:28):
traded to the New York Mets. Ryan O'Hearn, Ramon Loreano
traded to the San Diego Padres. Ramone Urreus traded to
the Houston Astros. They're going to be in contention, and
you watch, we'll get some playing time. Andrew Kittridge traded
to the Chicago Cubs. He's just gonna have to go
from one hotel to the other because the Orioles are

(20:51):
playing the Cubs in Chicago this weekend. And Charlie Morton
traded to the Detroit Tigers. So that's one, and we
left out a couple other guys that went. Before they
really started this about a week ago, a couple other
pitchers had been traded.

Speaker 5 (21:06):
What Sodo got traded.

Speaker 2 (21:08):
We don't who do we have left? Oh, we have
a lot of guys left. I mean, we have the
nucleus of what they brought up. These were guys that
either had contracts that were near the end or I mean,
we had control of a couple of these guys. But
they are looking to try to upgrade the pitching. And
it seems that because a lot of these guys got

(21:28):
traded for like five or six you know, double A
or triple A. In other words, minor league pitchers that
are hopefuls. They're nineteen twenty twenty one year old pitchers.
A lot of pitchers. We have a couple of infielders,
but for the most part, pitchers, which is what the
o's really need, are you optimistic. I don't know, you know,

(21:49):
I understand. Like, here's the real quick and this is
for the baseball nerd. There's something called the war wins
against replacement and it basically says or you helping the
team or hurting the team. And I saw a guy's
article yesterday who was justifying that Cedric was hurting the
team numerically, but he was. This is just my heart.

(22:11):
He was helping the team as a leader and as
a good guy. And in the last week he made
two plays that were incredible. He did he stretched out totally,
dove across the center field, caught a ball that was amazing.
Then he got back up and hit a home run
right after that. So you know, it's emotional. You root
for your guys. I love love all those guys, but

(22:34):
Cedric was he was just He was the longest tenured
Oriole here for eight years through the rebuild. So listen,
Oriole fans will cheer them on on their new teams.

Speaker 5 (22:46):
I promise you.

Speaker 4 (22:47):
Ninety three point one WPOC traffic.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
All right, So we got a watermelon truck overturned in
Frederick and it's causing a lot of issues.

Speaker 2 (22:57):
Forty pounds of issues.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
So that was earlier on seventy eastbound between Ridge Road
and Woodbine Road. They're still cleaning it up, so delays
still remain. I would still clear that road altogether if
I were you. And then we've got road construction on
eighty one at the Maryland line. It looks like things
are stopping go for about fifteen minutes. This report is

we do now? Do we just work and then sleep
and then work and then sleep and then work and

Well, that's what we do during the work week, and
then on the weekend we don't do that.

how do we add a little jazz?

Speaker 2 (27:59):
Ok, you know what I mean? How do we crank
it up a little?

What are little ways that you jazz up your life? Like?
For instance, I have a friend who has like a
rule for what she wants to wear every day of
the week. So like Monday she wears like purple, Tuesday
she wears some kind of pattern she like has it
mapped out in her head.

Speaker 5 (28:30):

Oh see what I'm wearing today. It says I can't
I have plans in the garage. My wife gave it
to me when I was building our garage.

Speaker 5 (28:44):
So it's silly T shirt Friday.

Speaker 2 (28:46):
Okay, see that's a little way to add whimsy, right.
