single day on Rock ninety five to five. Good morning, Mikey, Hi,
how are you. I'm great. My name's Maria Palmer. This
is the Morning Mosh. But usually there's a third person here. Yep,

art critiques. We'll hear from him a little later in

We're talking Thursday sixty seven and sunny Friday sixty six
and Sunday. By the way, these sixties are very fall.
Yeah's ten degrees cooler than it has been.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
And I was kind of giving you crap last week,
being like, oh, it's only gonna stick around two weeks,
but to now, another cold Frind's coming through.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
So if I just take us to winter.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Yeah, anyway, I'm just I'm just wrong.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
It turns out, get out and enjoy the day. Dislike,
did you stop it? I didn't stop it. It's still going.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Listen, Maris isn't here right now, and sometimes the beds
run out and I can kick it off again.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Here you want that again? It's perfect? Okay, good? Yeah,
sunshine today? Hi have seventy seven degrees partly Sunday and
rain Thursday sixty seven, and Sonney, let me tell you
about these sixty degree temperatures. Okay, feel a little fall. Yeah, wait,
I'll let the music grun out again. We'll get you

(02:10):
this all morning.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
We're not going to I want to know why because
there is a powerball winner.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
No, no, it's the powerball is I believe the biggest
it's ever been. The jackpot is enormous, and we want
to know, what would you get? Eight four four ninety
five fifty. That's eight four four nine five five.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
Next, the existence of zz top implies the existence of
a ZZ bottom pondering.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
So the morning mosh bed on rock ninety five five, Mikey. Yeah,
the powerball jackpot is at a staggering one point three
billion dollars. Oh my god, a billion people. I don't
think we I know, I don't. I can't comprehend how
much a billion dollars really is.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
It's a stupid amount of money that no one really need.
And people have hundreds of billions of dollars? Isn't that crazy?
That's about There are trillion hares.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
We don't even talk about.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Them, probably because I have enough money to keep us
all call hot listen.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
I purchased things from my friend Jeff constantly. Yeah, and
for me, boy bezos. Still no invite to the yacht,
so we'll see.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
Unbelievable. I didn't have you at their carpet if wedding. No, unfortunately,
not this one insane.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Next one Yes, power balls up to one point three
billion dollars after there were no big winners on Monday night,
the fifth largest prize in game history. Maria, you win
the power ball. What's the first thing you buy? Not do?
What's the first purchase? Oh god, it's a billion, by
the way, so billion. You could get anything you.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Want, probably, oh my god, maybe a new car, okay,
just to start out, like I'd start simple.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
It's such a huge idea. I could see your brain
going from like funny to like dumb. Something I really need,
maybe something I want. Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
I don't know, because that's therein lies the issue I have, ADHD.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
You can't give me so many options.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
That's probably why I should never actually have that much money,
because I'll I won't spend it because I won't know
what to spend it on. Sob like, well, I can
have anything, and therefore that gets rid of kind of
the rush of getting any of it, because like, part
of why you want is because it feels so unattainable,
and then when everything's attainable, it kind of takes away
something ooph you know.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
Also, what are you doing for dinner tonight? That's me.
Every day is like I don't know. I can't pick
something for power Ball. I can't even pick dinner. Oh
my god.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
I would love to do that thing where like celebrities
have the chefs that live with them and they just
like give them a salary for the whole year and
then they cook for them morning, noon, and night.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
Let's do that soile, doesn't it sound so?

Speaker 2 (04:50):
And then you can give them the like, I don't
want it to be more than such and such calories
and I only want such and stuff meal requirements in there.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Oh yeah, bio engineered eight bit clean.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
I don't want to make it. Really can't emphasize that
point enough of value, Mikey.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
I would buy a condo first Downtown. A condo, I
just get it. I'd pay it off so I don't
got to deal with housing, I know, but then you
have the whole community and stuff with the condo. It's fine,
Well I'm not in the community. That's like in my
apartment complex, they have parties and stuff. You're rich. I
don't know. I does don't go fair enough, but yeah,
I think also probably pay off my parents' house something

(05:28):
nice like that. Yeah, it's a billion dollars eight for
four five fifty. What would you get the next chance
to win Wednesday night on the forty first drawing since
the jackpot was one last May and what was that?
Nothing on eight for four five.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
I'm gonna take this to the miser.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
Amazing weekend, a huge rock weekend here in the city
where at the My Chemical Romance show they brought out
Billy Corgan to do Bullet with butterfly wings. Talk about
that a little later in the show and how Maria
left early and missed it. I don't Chicago's rock station,
why you would just rocked down? I saw.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
I did get to see them on stage together for
a brief moment, and it was cute. It was like
father and son up there, like the creepy vampire family.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
It was adorable.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Hey, did you know that there's an Air Guitar World Championship.

Speaker 4 (06:29):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (06:29):
I got enter this truly and I didn't know it,
but Finland won. I just like that it exists Finland
as in the country one Finland.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
You know. It was like that dude, they rock Mark
in air rock. Yeah, in air rack.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
So they incredible competitors performed two sixty second routine.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
Yeah, I needed to picture that. What can we do
this at the next Thursday live guitar competition?

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Yes, put them write it down, one to a song
of their choice, and then another track selected by the organizers.
They can't have real instruments, they can't have backup bands,
but they can have costumes and props sixty seconds though granted,
at least they're not making you do a full two
and a half three minutes song.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
When Maris did that, he sang the lips of an Angel.
That song was like five and a half minutes long,
and the whole time I was watching him, I was like,
I can't believe he's still doing it. I'll be giving
up a long time. The band commits to the so
good now. But you're right that this actually would be fun.
I'd be in on this, Yeah, I do that. Is
there a drum a World drum air drum solo competition?

Speaker 2 (07:46):
It says no backup band, but I wonder if it
could it be a backup air band.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
That's the question. That's funny too. Somebody shows up with
like six people.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
I do also think it would be funny to have
an actual band band but then have an air tarist.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
But never explain it. That would be funny.

Speaker 3 (08:02):
Yeah, just everyone's doing their job.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
Then some dudes, like on Air Guitar, he has a
solo by the way, and you just hear like the
tracking drums. Amazing, America wins the Air Guitar World.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
Cham Bitch Rock ninety five to five, Chicago's rock station
in the morning, Marsh Pit is.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
On, would you ever get your teeth done?

Speaker 1 (08:25):
I've thought about this a lot, and I know some
people who have it done. I don't like the idea
that they got to like file your teeth down to
put the old one the new ones over the old
ones for veneers. Yeah, I don't like it. Yeah, I
think I'll just floss.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
That's also, by the way, what pretty much every dentist
who's not making money on veneers would tell you, because
what what the Lord put in your mouth is what's
meant to be in your mouth?

Speaker 1 (08:47):
Lolololo.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
Well, and veneers are not going to last as long
as just like your God give them teeth. But this
woman named Emily Martinez gotta rested for performing unlicensed dental work,
and that unlicensed dental work was attaching veneers with store
bought super glue.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
Guess what stage. She's from guess just guess, uh, Texas, Florida. Okay, well, plus.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
So like most clinics will charge nine hundred to fifteen
hundred per tooth for veneers, Jesus, and she was getting
all these clients because they're like, wow, what a steel
She's charging only twenty five hundred dollars for a full
mouth of veneers.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
And yeah, maybe some white nail polish on those bad boys.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
You're good to go, perfect, just maybe just a little
white out in hairspray's crazy dick. Yeah, they obviously obviously
two clients got serious tooth damage, infections and pain, and
when they visited the real dentists, then they learned their
veneers had been attached with crazy glue.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
You know, it's good glue. We're and it's spelled crazy
with the K. It makes it cool. Yeah. Uh so.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
Yeah, if you see laniers on sale for twenty five
hundred dollars for your entire mouth, maybe not the best
buye oh best BUYEO.

Speaker 1 (14:12):
Rock ninety five to five Chicago's rock station Abandon has
made a bit of a resurgence by playing house parties
and just popping up places all American rejects. We are
the morning mash pit.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
What I like about house parties is while there is
some technology, there's not too much, so you don't have
to worry about being overwhelmed in what we would say
is inevitable at this point, human versus robot wall.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
News from the front of the inevitable human robot.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
War in the middle of the Australian Outback in Austraia.

Speaker 1 (14:44):
Is that right? That's what Australia quite right?

Speaker 2 (14:47):
Solar powered cars just raced two thousand miles using not
just sunlight but wind. The bridge Stone World Solar Challenge
invited teams from around the world to push the limits
of design, with many vehicles sporting futuristic fins to use
swirling winds. Oh, it's fun for extra thrust to even

(15:09):
The Netherlands won the competition with their thirteen car, which
was equipped with dual fins that helped it glide faster
without using more power winds.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
You say, the CEO of Exon has entered the chat
and he would like everybody's names. Oh no, don't you
remember there's that story about some guy who like made
a car run off of water and like two weeks
later no one ever saw him again. Yeah, that sounds
about right. That's cool though. It's so cool.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
In fact, might be a win for the humans on
that one, because it's less power being taken up.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
A wind for the humans. Uh oh oh, I thought
you said at first that was real easy greasing, Like
maybe we wind about human versus robot war. This one's
news from the front of the inevitable human robot War day.

(16:02):
I just saw a billboard they are playing back here
in September I think it's September seventeenth. Yeah, well, now
I got to look this up, damn it. Because I
was driving around yesterday. I went out to Schomberg. Oh yeah,
I went out by Bussy Woods Park or whatever it was.
I was driving by there. I looked at my ways
on my phone and I was like, oh, by Bussy Woods,
Busy Woods. Let's see your Green Day September Bussies. Yeah,

(16:26):
I feel like they were just here. They played those
two shows out at Wrigley, yeah, or they played one
actually Pearl Gams too.

Speaker 3 (16:32):
They were my first ever whiles really wow?

Speaker 1 (16:35):
And when was was it forty years ago? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (16:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (16:42):
Oh duh. So the billboard said Green Day September twenty first. Oh,
they didn't say anything about riots Brain. You didn't even
connect the two. Yes, that's right, isn't it. So Green
Day gonna be back in here with Blink one eighty two,
We's are and a whole bunch more next this month.

(17:04):
It's September. I don't like to think about that. Rents
Doom Rock ninety five five, Chicago's rock station in the morning,
wash bit is.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
Off and we know that it is September because we
just got out of that labor day, weekend day weekend.
So good.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
It would be nice to have that every weekend. Well,
then I went to high school, we had four day
work week or four day school weeks. Wait, wait, really,
we'd go Monday, Tuesday, had Wednesday off, and Thursday Friday.
Oh that's nice. Every day was a Monday or a Friday. Oh,
that's phenomenal. Well, if you could pick a day, what
day would you cancel? Would you go long week? Ikinder?

Speaker 2 (17:35):
I think would want the long weekend because every time
I get to my weekend, it's like I just finished
resting enough and then boom.

Speaker 1 (17:42):
Your work week's back. Friday or Monday, it doesn't matter. Yeah,
I think i'd go Monday. Yeah. I really like the
way this week's playing out. Yeah, Yeah, Tuesday, Wednday, Thursday, Friday,
and we're back to the weekend and we're back. Yeah,
and we are not alone.

Speaker 2 (17:55):
By the way, sixty nine percent of workers say that
they would be just as productive working thirty two hours
a week instead of the full forty.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
Fine, I'll do more on the other days, right sure.

Speaker 2 (18:06):
And even then I won't do more, I'll do the
same amount because we're by the time you get to
that last day of the week, that's not a productive day. Ye,
you are phoning it in anyway. You're coming in, you're
maybe doing a little thing here or there to just
kind of like put the finishing touches on your week,
and then you're getting out probably early.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
Especially last Friday, like a long weekend ahead. You're like,
we're just here for a few hours to show not
us of course, because we're very hard workers. So we're
just here for a few hours to show face, and
then we're going home exactly.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
And also, remember all of those studies that came out
during the pandemic and they're all like, oh, turns out
productivity really goes up when you give people more time
off and don't make them come into the office.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
And then like a couple of years later, we were
just like, so we're just gonna pretend we didn't it.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
See those or do those and you guys all have
to come back into the office because we haven't been
getting our brown nosing, and how are we going to
have our validation otherwise?

Speaker 1 (19:04):
I'll take four hundred for balance, Alex, please, a little
bit of work life balance.

Speaker 3 (19:10):
Great work life balance in this economy?

Speaker 1 (19:14):
What's that.

Speaker 2 (19:18):
Nothing else matters, that's right, nothing else you matter. A reminder,
thank god, mosh pit on Rock ninety five to five.
It's a scratch of a joke, but we're doing it.

Speaker 1 (19:31):
You know, James Hatfield was a janitor before he joined Metallica.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
No, I didn't know that, but that's interesting because also
Noodles from the Offspring was a janitor.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
And Kirk Colebain lots of janitors.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Yeah, maybe a lot of air guitaring on those mops
and brooms.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
We have jobs rock stars had before they were famous, Maria,
what job did speaking of rock stars, what job did
you have before you were famous? So speak? You know.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
I was a bar under Oh that's right, and straight
from I'm like farm to table to Mike.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
You were slaying drinks. I was slaying videos and DVDs
at Hollywood Video. Oh god, oh great job.

Speaker 3 (20:06):
How much porn did you watch on your office?

Speaker 1 (20:08):
We didn't have any porn at Hollywood Video. It was
one of the It was like a blockbuster, not even
in like the basement, nothing for the Unfortunately, now there
were some like soft core type gonna say some skin
a max yeah exactly, some things in a horror section
that might had a sausage summer horror. Okaylks, let's see here.
We got rock stars. What did they do before they

(20:29):
were famous? Fred Durst tattoo artist. That makes sense. Yeah,
kind of seems to fit Tom Morello from this one
surprises me. He was an exotic dancer.

Speaker 2 (20:38):
Oh well, that man with his basslines, he's clearly got
some rhythm, you know.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
But he specialized in bachelorette parties. I bet he did.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
Could you imagine like having a really bad bachelorette party
then going home and writing raging and the shame songs?

Speaker 1 (20:57):
You won't do what you tell me. Rob Zombie was
a production assistant on Pee Wee's Playhouse Stop It.

Speaker 2 (21:07):
That actually makes so much sense because I mean, like
that checks out.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
His theater is so similar, just like not geared towards children. Yeah.
Interest in Courtney love stripper? Yeah, so Tom and Courtney
you put bull out dams and I like it. Corey
Taylor was the sales associate at a sex shop sold Dill's.

Speaker 2 (21:30):
Okay, weirdly, I don't know why. The sex part kind
of is surprising to me. Sales associate makes sense.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
I don't know why.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Corey Taylor seems like a sales guy, but at a
sex shop.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
That's hilarious. Twelve inches you say we got bigger over here.
Axel Rose was a manager at Tower Records. Okay. Kirk
Obane Janitor Lemm from Motorhead was a roadie for Jimmy Hendrix.
Oh that's cool. Wouldn't that be cool? Yeah? I bet
that was fun. Chris Cornell speaking of Seattle, Chris Cornell,
he was a fish handler? What the same? He was

(22:03):
a fish handler for a seafood company where he had
to wipe up slime and throw away fish guts at
Pike Place Market. Oh wow, he probably smelled like your mom, mean,
dare you? And last one, Ozzy Osbourne Rest in Peace
had a brief stint at a slaughterhouse. He was set
on the table where they cut open cow carcasses.

Speaker 3 (22:23):
I guess that's why I wasn't thrown off by the bat.

Speaker 4 (22:25):
Yeah it ain't so okay, I said it.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
Something supposed to happen. I think we're supposed to get
a bottle of Stephen. That's good, thank you.

Speaker 3 (22:46):

the Cubby Bear in Wrigleyville. Oh boy, so originally, and
I've read his statement on this. He says, let me
start by saying, none of this was planned. We had

(23:31):
a day off before our show in Chicago, and I
went out to dinner. Afterwards, we decided to go take
some pictures around town. Ended up at Wrigley Field. They
were taking pictures in front of the you know, the
big marquee at Wrigley and at the Cubby Bear, which
is right across the street. They heard someone playing a
System of a Down song cool, and so they wandered in. Well,
a System of a Down cover band was playing in there.

(23:52):
Oh my god. And one of the cool thing is
cool things is if you see the video, the band's
on stage playing and you can see them kind of
like looking at the guy, and I mean, Darren walks
right up to the stage and it's like there's not
a lot of people there. He's like jumping in front
of the stage, making it very obvious he's there, and
they realize, oh my god, this is him. He ended
up hanging out, getting on stage, playing songs with him.

(24:15):
They sang Cigaro, took pictures with fans while he was there,
and just one of those really cool, like Chicago experiences
that doesn't happen in small cities.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
Do you think they actually recognized him right away or
do you think he was like.

Speaker 1 (24:29):
I'm in I'm in system of it. I know they
didn't right away. They were like what's this guy doing?
And then I could see the lead singer was like oh,
and he's like pointing at him, and he's like telling
the other guys He's like, look, look it's Darren. Yeah.
So a really cool thing went down over there in
a big weekend in rock and roll, including Billy Corgan
joining My Chemical Romance on stage. I know the Oasis.

(24:51):
Do you see the drones? No huge drone show above Oasis.
That just said Oasis over Soldier Field. I mean, just
a fun, fun weekend in rock. And for all the
rock news and concert calendar and everything you need to know,
just go to Rock nine to five five. Here's the sunglasses.

Speaker 3 (25:12):
You might be able to find what you're looking for.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
M Good morning, Mosh, been on rock in ninety five
to five, mikey, Oh.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
My gosh, I got to see the coolest thing on
Friday night. Shut up. Boy? Was I so excited that
I decided for the first time in my life not
to leave a concert early to beat traffic. Because right
after Maria walked out all right, I remember thinking, did
I call this to you? Yeah? I said, Billy Corgan
will come out. He will play with Smashing Pumpkins. Yeah.

(25:39):
When you started to leave, I thought, damn, he's not
gonna come out, is he? Because I thought this show's
almost over and he had and Gerard had talked about
Billy previously in the concert and how they love the pumpkins,
and I was like, well, if you hums out, he's
coming out here. And he didn't. But then you left,
and moments after this is what it sounded like at
Soldier Field. So I come across you. It's late at night.

Speaker 5 (26:02):
I'm just kind of studying, kind of shat alone, rolling
through vestigram and and I see this kid in his
room playing along to pull It with Butterfly Wings and
his guitar. Is it like you could hear?

Speaker 1 (26:17):
It's that I'm running next by bar.

Speaker 5 (26:19):
But anyway, I've watched this thing and I felt the
light of Christ under my chest.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
It is wild.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
This song.

Speaker 1 (26:27):
It's the ultimate rock defiance to me, it's like searing
your inprint on the universe in cure defiance. This is
the best rocker to world song ever.

Speaker 2 (26:38):
Really poor, put up and do this song with us,
And thank you John for making that statements radio friendly
as possible.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
Yeah, seriously, it's super dope, super cool. And then they
played Bullet with Butterfly Wings. By the way, Uh, I
hate to even admit this, first time I've ever seen
Smashing Pumpkins. Yeah, I never somehow in all the years
of doing this, I'd never seen Smash. But even when
they opened for Green Day at Wrigley, Yeah, I got
stuck in traffic and didn't quite make it on time.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
I saw them in Charlotte a couple of years ago,
and they kept calling it Charlottesville.

Speaker 1 (27:10):
Oh no, Billy would be like, hey, Charlotte'sville and cowd
just like where Charlotte. Yeah, that's a whole different Thank
you somehow never heard us. You have to pitchfork soil.
It is cute to see father and sonons. It is
pretty cool. Well, and if people don't know, I think
that they you know, Billy Corgan calls the guys in
my chemist sons and they say call him dad and

(27:31):
all that, which is cool.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (27:32):
And also they look exactly andike and they sounds incredibility. Yeah.

Oh that's my favorite?

Speaker 1 (28:10):
Just an individual voice today, Man, This is out traveling
the world and tomorrow will have another review of something
that he's seen.

Speaker 3 (28:17):
While he's out, he's critiquing art.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
And let me tell you of the opinions as good
as the ones he had on the Princess Bride.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
Well, he did tell the Mona Lisa to smile more.

Speaker 3 (28:26):
Well, and like, look how she's dressed. She's asking that
kind of critsis.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
Comes a back Baby down five and a half games
from the Brewers. As the Brewers dropped a game yesterday
and the Cubs picked one up. They beat the Braves
seven to six out at Wrigley with a comeback. I
checked the game at a certain point and literally just
turned it back off because it was six to one. Me.
At that point, I was like, God, damn it, Cubs,
we need to win these games. They came back and
won seven to six with the Carson Kelly walk off.

(28:53):
A great game for him. He had a home run
and the walk off RBI single. H man, Uh yeah, uh.
They play again today at six forty.

Speaker 2 (29:01):
You know, for me, I found that if I turned
the game off before it even starts, then I don't
get disappointed.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
So that's it's true. Actually, jot that down learn that
for your next marriage. The White Sox also beat the
Twins some big wins yesterday. Interestingly enough, White Sox six
to five against the Twins. And the White Sox used
seven pitchers yesterday to win that game, which is wild damn.

(29:27):
I mean, in a grand scheme of things, you'd want
an opener and a closer, but seven.

Speaker 2 (29:33):
They using grinders seven pitchers.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
So a big one for the White Sox over the Twins.
They play again tonight at six forty and we are
six days away, six days away from Monday Night Football,
the first Bears game of the season. They will take
on the Minnesota Vikings at Soldier Field under the bright
lights and Monday Night football.

Speaker 2 (29:54):
And I bet that's gonna go so well and everyone
will leave very happy.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
We hope. So yeah, I think we'll beat the Vikings.

Speaker 2 (30:03):
I mean, Bears versus Vikings. On Vikings have spears and thumbs.
They have thumbs and known to be aggressive.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
That's true. It'll be a fun fight. I can't wait
to see it. I'll watch it in real time.

Speaker 2 (30:16):
Smart new ish music from Pearl Jam on Rock ninety
five to five. Dark Matter doesn't get any better than that.

Speaker 1 (30:25):
No, no great song great band, so good.

Speaker 2 (30:28):
I love him.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
A man who took a tennis player. A man who
took tennis player Camille Magerich's hat from a young fan
at the US Open, apologized on social media and said
he has returned it. I think everybody's probably seen this
video go on and describe it to basically one of
whoever Camille, I don't know tennis. So Camille Majiich is
walking down a line of people who are kind of

(30:50):
on the edge of the stands, and he's signing balls
and he's signing autographs, and he takes his hat off.
He gives it to this little boy, and then this
guy next to it, I'm full grown man grabs it
out of the boy's hand and like tries to play
it off and kind of passes it off to someone
else because he's trying to take the hat. I guess, oh,
he must be a big, you know, fan of maybe
the tennis player or something. Either way, horrible look, Yeah,

(31:12):
stealing something out of a child.

Speaker 3 (31:14):
It's like there was literally like taking candy from a baby.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
Well, there was a famous one a little while ago
where somebody grabbed a baseball out of a kid's handle,
like he pulled it out and took it, and you're like,
what are you people even doing?

Speaker 2 (31:24):
Yeah, they just see red. They're like eyes on the prize.
They're not thinking about who is around them.

Speaker 1 (31:29):
Don't get it. His name is Peter Sayzerich. He's a
Polish CEO, p IoT R Pirectar. Maybe it's Peredar. I no,
I don't know. It's kind of fun to look at.
He is posting an apology on social media Monday, after
the video of the incident went viral over the weekend.
The broadcast showed him grabbing the hat from the boy.
He says, I take full responsibility for my extremely poor judgment. Well, listen,

(31:52):
he would take no responsibility if he wasn't caught on video, right,
He probably doesn't even care. No, he doesn't care. I
will take full response. He took a hat out of
a child's legit. That shows a problem with what do
you call it when people are bad? Yes? Morality? Yes,
I take full responsibility for the extremely poor judgment and
hurtful actions. It was never my intent to steal away

(32:14):
a prize memento from a young hand. It was literally
your intent, dude. You looked right at it, took it
out of his hand.

Speaker 3 (32:19):
The intention was to take the thing that you were grabbing, he.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
Says, He goes, unquote, regardless of what I believed was happening,
the actions I took hurt the young boy and disappointed
the fans.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
That's such a cop out, regardless of what I believed
was happening, Which means so there's actually a whole other
narrative that you guys don't even know about it.

Speaker 1 (32:35):
But don't worry. Don'torry.

Speaker 2 (32:36):
I'm going to be a martyr and just take one
for the team, just like I took that hat from
that child.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
How about you just say you're sorry. How about give
it back? Yeah that to give it back and maybe
maybe hooked the kid up with something else, just for
being a dickhead or a punk. Yeah, I can't say that.
When people screw with kids, it upsets me, man.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
I mean, yeah, I had a similar experience. Not really,
but I was a bride's maid at my brother's wedding
to my sister in law, and then I was obviously
a single lady. So I was like fourteen, and so
I got in like the group to catch the bouquet.

Speaker 1 (33:12):
Yeah, I caught it. I caught the bouquet. It's some drunk.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
Chick chest ramps it out of my hands, and it
was like this weird moment where like I catch it, Yeah,
all of a sudden, another hand comes in right away,
and I just like feel the tongue in like for
a second, I like holding something like No, like I firmly,
securely got it. This is not a football fumble, like
it's in my hands, thinking like she'll be.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
Like, oh, sure she caught it. I thought it was
still airborne. It's not.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
No, And so at that point it's like, well, I'm
not gonna fight you for this bouquet at my brother's
wedding when I'm fourteen.

Speaker 3 (33:45):
And by the way, sober because I'm fourteen, you're.

Speaker 1 (33:48):
About as close to get married as I am, sweetheart,
so Nanny you can have that. So basically, yeah, I
understand what it's like.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
To get a hat stolen from me by a CEO.

Speaker 1 (34:00):
And by the way, I remember everything you do is
on video these days.

Speaker 2 (34:02):
And by the way, remember CEOs, no one likes you
right now?

Speaker 1 (34:05):
Yes, be good, be better. They name and mentioned it,
Mikey that.

Speaker 2 (34:14):
We are in the midst of ninety five minutes of
commercial free music.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
How cool is that on Rocket ninety five to five?

Speaker 2 (34:20):
Cool enough for us to mention, Hey, we love it,
and what it is is textime.

Speaker 1 (34:27):
Fifty. You could text us anytime throughout the show. That's
the same number to call into the studio. We prefer texts.
We're just God, there's a lot going on in here.
Sometimes it's hard to get all the to get to
us because you know.

Speaker 3 (34:41):
Yeah, for the same reason that you don't like to
answer your phone.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
It's true. Let's see here from the eight one five
air Guitar Championship reminds me of hobby horsing competitions, Yes, which,
by the way, we should have Also, have you ever
heard of air sex competitions? Is it just you get
thirty seconds to just do the best version of humping, Like,
but it's just you pretending sex with someone else on stage.

Speaker 2 (35:07):
And wow, that's the fastest way to mimic getting laid
while also ruling you out as someone that's going to
get laid.

Speaker 1 (35:13):
I grew up in Portland, Oregon. That was something there,
or I guess the other places just do air guitar.
But call me crazy? What organ did you? It was fun? Okay,
let's see here Michael Winslow would win that. I don't
know why. I don't get that Michael Winslow.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
I don't know who Michael Winslow is. I'm gonna look
it up. You go to the next one.

Speaker 1 (35:33):
Hello, Mashpin. Are you guys giving away six Flags tickets
this week? No, not six Flags this week? This week
we have the great Chicago Wolves tickets.

Speaker 2 (35:41):
Oh that's the sound effects guy. He was also in, uh,

Speaker 1 (35:57):
Yeah, yeah, he's by the way legend. I mean, what
a cooke to be able to do all those sound
effects on truly, let's see here we're talking about. Earlier,
a guy at a corn show corn system of a
down show in New York decided between the bands to
jo in the front row and got his ass whooped
and drug out by the cops from the two one nine?

(36:17):
Did the quote concert beater at least finish? I didn't
look like it, Not that I was looking real close,
but I when someone threw the beer on him, and
then a guy punched him in this face from the back,
and then the cops showed up. He didn't he didn't
look like he was ashamed. He didn't look he didn't
look like he was ready to get out of there.

(36:38):
Let's put it that way. He looked like he was stuck.
You can't unpitch that tent in a hurry. Yeah, exactly,
let's see here. Yesterday I made a trek out to
the Schomberg areo Ikea, Oh, which was kind of fun.
I did. Actually I got the meat ball plate. By
the way, they've turned those the little eating area and
Ikeia to it nice nice now criteria.

was very excited because I looked at my ways app
when I was driving and I was right by Bussy
Woods or Bussy Woods, I guess is what it's called
pussy This from the eight four to seven. Hey, Michael,
Bussy Woods back in the seventies was a huge party
in drug store. You can't even fathom what it was.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
Well, we would argue that it's still a party in
drug store today, and that's Bussy Woods.

Speaker 1 (37:26):
I still am gonna make my shirt. I just don't
know what what it should say, like I get I
got lost in bussy Woods. That's kind of funny. I

Speaker 2 (38:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
I was gonna say spice, but you know what, thank
you for that. I guess organic matter that I don't
really want. Just don't breathe deep. I hate it when
you're walking down the sidewalk and someone's vaping and you
know that you're getting in your mouth what was just
inside them? That makes me feel a little worse about
the two.

Speaker 2 (38:24):
Yeah, thanks man, cool. I cannot wait for Marre's to
be back.

Speaker 1 (38:28):

Speaker 1 (38:43):
Maris is the angel.

Speaker 2 (38:45):
He's trying to make good decisions in spite of two
devils on his shoulder.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
Just volleying, volleying his uh what is it called halo
back and forth? Stop, and then we don't well, I mean,
he had to take a week off because we're so annoying.

Speaker 2 (39:02):
Well, he's got to go see some of the finest
art on the plane and critique it, because, as we
know from his opinions on the Princess Bride, he is
a very discerning connoisseur of the arts.

Speaker 1 (39:15):
Yes see, and today it was Mona Lisa.

Speaker 2 (39:17):
It was the Mona Lisa today. I'm hoping tomorrow, I mean,
we'll see. It depends on what he wants to give us,
but I'm hoping maybe van Go's Starry Night or perhaps
the Sisteine.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
Chapel a Picasso. Maybe.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
Yeah, we'll see, we'll see. But if you missed his
critique today, that's all right. It'll be up on my
social media at Maria Palmer Radium on pretty much everything,
