We cranked up The Wayback Machine once again, and went back to the time in California when we got on a random military veteran’s boat, and also saw a live sea lion freak-off happening.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Ben and Skin Show ninety seven point one. The Eagle
coming up here in about fifteen minutes. We will get
into all things Cooper Flag, the Mavericks fortunes have changed,
we'll discuss it. We have audio. We'll get into Flag
Day from yesterday. That's coming up next. But right now
it's time for this.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
It's time to go into the Ben and Skin Show Wardboat.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
It's just tremendous radio production right there. Yeah, so good
on this day and Ben and Skin Show history. We
go back to the summer of sometime in the teens.
And the reason I know this is that we were
at Cowboys training camp and we used to go every
year to Oxnard, California for Cowboys Training Camp and do
(00:46):
a show on the tennis courts and you know, interview
players and Jones family members.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
And it would have been now we would have gone
this early.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
It's sort of been very early. When of those times
where they sent us on the first week, I think
because closest camp is it about to start, But it's
usually last week, you know why. There's no way, Yeah,
last week in July. Maybe this is one from a
month from now.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Then that's fine. It's still the way back machine.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
I don't care.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
We're going way back. We're still going way back, just
not way way back. Now back are we going? We're
going way back?
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Okay, we're going like eleven months back. Yeah. Yeah, we're
going seventy years and eleven months ago on this day,
at least, that's what my hard drive said.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Damn.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
But we were having a food at this place that's
on a dock by a marina, and there's all these
boats where people live or stay for days at a
time before they're off on their next venture.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
House boats.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
And we met this guy who was in the military,
and he invited us. He was a veteran. He invited
us on his boat. We hung out there for a while.
It was interesting to see what life would be like.
Did we meet him at a restaurant first, or walking
on the dock? We saw him and started a conversation. Yeah,
we might have started conversation knowing us. Probably had a
couple drinks and started just talking to strangers. And but
(02:05):
he he noticed, he noticed our he noticed our enthusiasm
from what we had stumbled upon. I'm gonna play audio
of that first, okay, Because on that dock were a
bunch of seals or sea lions, and uh, they were
in a group and they appeared to be having fun
(02:27):
with each other.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
Okay, apparently there's a seal orgy going on. If he
that one seal is about to building momentum, he said,
look right behind that white ye oh, my god, they're
doing it now.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
That sex.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Oh man, that's where the phrase sealed the deal came from.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
I thought they would be, uh passionate lover.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
I've got a new suggestion, guys, the phrase rubber meets
the road. I would like for that phrase to be
replaced with when the condom leaves the package.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Get a new dan.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Dance off, dance off the water, push me the water,
push me in the water, Come on, seal.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
As he was to his why it happened because they
pushed the one in the water and we were walking
down that little the dock area yea, and the guy
was like, he's measuring you, guys. He's he's gonna try
to pull you in. He was trying to freak us
out because the seals they would swim by you as
you're walking by. Yeah, and they did. It did feel
like they had the power and ability to maybe knock
(03:33):
you off into the water.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
But you don't ever hear about seal attacks now or
them eating humans. Okay, that's a great point because I
totally bought everything the guy said. And I was like, yeah,
these seals are staking us. And now that you bring
that up, wouldn't that be a thing that we would
know about. There'd be attacks all the time. Wouldn't there
be signs, hey, man, seals attacking. Be careful on this pier.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Seal attacks on humans are rare, according to a high
and in it.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Just for a guy to just be living in his
friend's boat, it is strange.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
But he was clearly a guy who was in a
bit of a nomad. Yeah, at least I thought. And
it was interesting. He had know his microwave, and he
had a little TV in there, and California was weird
books and you still have his number. I do call him,
see the answers. I thought about it, but then I
was like, call him right now. I remember that, Yeah,
but call him, just see it. Let's see the answers.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
What if he says, oh my god, it's the guys
from Dallas Radio.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
As soon as he had family in the UH in
the in the Metroplex too, and he was telling us
about why didn't he live with them?
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Why did we get on the boat? Though the guy
could have killed us, He really could have killed us.
He had some of that California. Hey, you guys want
to get on this boat and smoke? Seems safe to us.
Went on on this corporate trip, sure we should have
like wait, we went and had Canadian Thanksgiving dinner with
(04:56):
a whole group of the craziest one was what's the
trip where we were with a bunch of coworkers and
everyone was miserable and hating life and wondering what to do.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
And then someone told us that we would just sit it,
sit there and take it. We'll sit there and take it.
You're not going to do anything about it. It was
how long after that were we at the equal Uh?
Three months?
Speaker 3 (05:18):
He was about a three month situation there. Yeah. That
was also the same trip though, where we had been
demoted two days but no one had told us that we.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Just and because that happened, there was one guy at
the station that wanted to form an alliance because he
was unhappy with his situation, and we didn't want to
form that alliance where everybody's sitting at dinner bitching and
so we were talking about, well, we're going to do this,
this and this, and one host was like.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
No, you're not going to do anything.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Yeah, you guys, do you talking track? Yeah? I didn't
love that the morning show knew that we were getting
moved attend to two before we did. Like that kind
of questionable. I also didn't like that there was a
used condom on this up to our hotel room.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
That's why we spent so much time with the drifter
at the peak.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
I also didn't like the Luca trade, you know, and
that's why Skins phrase never caught on because the condom
left the package.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
But we don't know what happened. It was just sitting
by some steps outside the rubber met the road.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
All right, there you have it. There's the way Back machine.
