Episode Transcript

(00:02):
In its earliest days, the majorfunction of radio was news. Beautiful,
let everybody go, why don't youput on a show and charge? Its

(00:22):
okay? So I would say something, wouldn't use it? I'm Tommy.
It will be a show for everyonewho loves music and murder. Come on,
Chuck, we got it a showto dude, showtime. Are you
ready? I'm ready? Job.Maybe there'll be a day in the future

(00:44):
when AI teaches people how to drive. There's three accidents this morning, three
kind of one two three on mydraft work. I got lucky. I
say lucky because only had to sitfor a button hour. Is there one
on the interlope cleared up? Itwas clearing, but there was one on
the interloop behind me, so Igot out in front of that one,

(01:06):
okay, But then I hit theone that's before the Legion bridge. That
yeah, just before Virginia side,just before the Legion Bridge. That was
a big one because there was likea truck up on the guardrail on the
right hand side, so they hadto close the right hand lanes. You
know, like one hundred yards downthe road was the other car on the
other side, so they had toclose the left hand lanes. So it
was a nightmare. And then there'sthe accident on him. If he can

(01:30):
get in the local lanes on twoseventy North much much better. And thankfully
that's right where I exit, soI didn't get stuck in that one on
a nightmare. Man, Three majoraccidents at like five o'clock in the morning,
Come on, it was I waiteduntil you got here to start the
show line. I see that isthat nice? And wild Bill is very

(01:53):
concerned. I saw he left hismessage going, what's up? Why is
nobody there? Yeat? A lotof trafficking accidents this morning, all right,
so let's take care of some businessright off back, get it out
of the way. It's DC's ClassicRock, Big one hundred from DC's Classic
Rock, It's Big one hundreds.You get love a bad Man, there's

(02:15):
bon Jovi. It's six thirty five, and good morning to you. Yeah,
it's a mess out there this morning. Things are starting to clear up,
I think kinda sorta, but thebelt Lay interloop was just an absolute
disaster as early as like five o'clockthis morning, so keep that in mind.
Hey, I love that. It'sa record heat, right, we're

(02:38):
gonna hit close to one hundred today, tomorrow one hundred degrees and they say
the heat index there is gonna feellike as hot as one hundred and ten,
the dangerous hot. Right, AndI'm running a space here, yeah,
in this studio, I'm where topark a yeah, look that is
no, lie, I don't knowwhy they can't. I mean, you

(03:00):
gotta switch HVAC companies something, itgoes from sauna. They can't get it
right. Box in here, there'sno in between. They can't get it
right. No, No, Idon't get it. I really don't.
I mean, I'm sure it's difficultin like spaces like this where there's so
many different rooms and so many differentyou know, areas of the building,
and they probably have a few differentunits and like to get it cool enough

(03:23):
in like maybe a room down thehall, it makes this one, you
know, forty two degrees. Idon't know. Well, I think the
problem is like the different rooms,like multiple rooms share the same thermostat right,
so you've got like the big giantrooms like the one down the hall,
right and which is on the sameone as this one. Yeah,

(03:43):
and to keep those cool, yougot to run it really cool. But
it makes it makes these closed offrooms trigid. My god, so we're
not kidding around here, like I'mliterally running a space heater. My hands
ached when we left yesterday because theyare so cold and it's a hundred degrees.

(04:04):
It's ridiculous. That day, rememberwhen the HVAC broke for like a
day, Yeah, that was themost comfortable morning I've ever had here.
It was like, I don't know, like seventy one degrees. I stay
so hot. I'm like, shutup, this is beautiful. That was
the day the alarms are going off. Yeah, I didn't even care.
I didn't care alarms were going off, the HVAC broke, and I was

(04:26):
like, what, it's nice.It's nice in here, all right?
Things I know coming up here injust a bit and we'll finish up the
big word of the week a littlebit later this morning, about seven thirty.
Gonna give you a chance to winsome tickets for the big show with
Sticks and Foreigner, and we willhave some Tedesky Trucks tickets up for gribes
a little bit later this morning.DC's Classic Rock, It's big one hundred.

(04:47):
DC's classic Rock. There's ac DCHighway to Hell, and good morning
to you. It is six fiftyam, but it's Friday. It is
Friday. It is six, butit's Friday. It's that for or things.
I know, the average strawberry hasaround two hundred seeds around it.

(05:09):
You ever looked at the strawberry upclose? Its fascinating. Although technically those
little seeds on the outside of astrawberry, all those little seeds are not
seeds. Botanists consider them actually tiny, separate fruits because in each one of
those single, tiny seeds is anotherseed. And now about that other strawberries,

(05:31):
what's that does become other strawberries?I don't know. I don't know.
Very good question. If I perioda strawberry in the backyard, would
it grow into like a strawberry vine? I don't know, let's try it.
I'm sitting here thinking said an idea. What if you were to take
all the little seeds off of astrawberry, because if they are technically fruit,

(05:56):
it would probably ten take seven billionstrawberries to get a cupful of them,
and then I don't know, makesomething out of those What do they
taste like? Like? What doesthat little seed on a strawberry taste like?
If you just eat it by itself? Guess you wouldn't know until you
got about thousand of them. Likerice, I'm curious, what seriously,

(06:18):
because if it is actually a separatefruit and there's a seed inside of each
one of those seeds, it's interesting. Thirty eight percent of all the chocolate
in the world. I didn't realizeit was high. It comes from the
Ivory Coast in Africa. Cocoa meansfrom the Ivory Coast in Africa, thirty
eight percent. Approximately thirty two percentof the roads in the US are unpaved.

(06:43):
Give an idea just how fast thiscountry is. Thirty two percent of
the roads are unpaved for almost onethird. Yeah, it's a big country,
man, big country. Once youget out of the metros, you
know, you realize there's a lotout there. I try not to venture
out of the metros. Lendon meJohnson is the only president who's ever visited

(07:08):
American Samoil. He went there innineteen sixty six. Huh, No other
president has gone there. It's interesting. Years ago there was a job opening.
It totally piqued my interest, notbecause I was interested in the job,
but I was like, Wow,how crazy would that be. He's
a radio station, an American Samoya, and they were hiring for a program

(07:31):
director. What was the format.I don't know, it's like island music.
I think it was kind of,you know, like a mix between
like pop and rock and just alittle bit of everything, you know.
I don't think there was any specificlike, you know, I think it
was just kind of like you know, chart music whatever was popular at the
time, and which you see alot of those on like smaller islands or

(07:55):
in smaller towns. But so Idug it do it because I'm like,
well, this is just fascinated.I want to see what's going on here.
And the last I was like,I wonder what happened to the last
guy. He died in a divingaccident. He was scuba diving. Yeah,
it doesn't say how. It justsaid he dug deeper into it.
It says, uh, you know, the last program director was with us

(08:18):
for this many years and loved itand it was a big outdoor person and
unfortunately passed away in a scuba divingaccident. And now they're looking for somebody
new. So then you know,how like he starts to go down the
rabbit hole, right, and thenI'm like, well, I wonder what
American Samoya is, Like, what'spretty depressing, man. I mean,
it's tropical, it's beautiful, andI think it's one of the biggest tuna

(08:41):
plants. I think that that's kindof their claim to fame is they have
one of the biggest tuna plants,tuna tunas that go out there and they
catch the tuna and then they havelike a tuna factory there and then they
ship it out all over the world, right like they can it or like
they can't actually tuna, like theycan't it like cannon. They at tuna

(09:01):
factory, so they bring the fishin, can it, and then send
it out to the rest of theworld. It was one of the things
I saw was that they were famousfor most of the people work at the
tuna factory anyway, so it wasjust you know, curio it is right.
Stuff like that peaks my curiosity andI go, God, I wonder

(09:22):
what it's like living in some placelike American Samoila, which is like out
in the middle of the ocean.To it, it's like, you know,
think of Hawaii and then think likeI think it's like thousands of miles
further south than that. I thinkmaybe it's east. I know it's out
there in the middle of flip andnowhere and tell you that nothing just this

(09:46):
island out in the middle of nowhere. And we it's an American territory,
American Samoa. I think there's afew islands. We have one of them.
Oh yeah, I'm looking at itat a globe. Yeah, you
see, there's no And that's whyI was so fascinated by it, because
I was like, man, whatwould it be like to work someplace like
that? You're just done. You'reliterally on an island in the middle of

(10:09):
nowhere. There's not even another island. Oh no, no, Like it
would take you twelve hours just toeven go visit another island. It was
insane. Anyway, that's my that'smy knowledge of American Samoil. And Lenda
B. Johnson went there in nineteensixty six. But how long it took
him to getto No question? AndWall Street Finally is the only movie ever

(10:35):
that won an Oscar and a Razzie. Same movie won an Oscar and a
Razzie. Razzies are given for theworst, the very worst of the worst.
Michael Douglas won the Oscar for BestActor that year. For Wall Street.
Darrell Hannah won the Razzie for WorstSupporting Actress in the same movie.

(10:56):
There you go, that's things.I know. It's six fifty. You're
listening to DC's Classic Crockets, ABig one hundred, DC's Classic Crockets,
Big one hundred. There's journey anywayyou want. It's seven to eleven,
and good morning to you. Ifyou had to guess across the entire planet,
who takes the least amount of vacationdays? Me country wise? Country

(11:22):
wise US, You're always gone,yes, always, I would have said
Japan. Really yeah, is theirworkaholics? You know, twelve hours a
day, six days a week.That's nothing for people in Japan, But
actually working when they're at or see, that's the difference. That's why I
think it's US because we come towork, but we kind of half asset.

(11:46):
Well, we're talking about the numberof actual paid vacation days you take
per year. US takes the leastamount of vacation days. I was,
I was right, Uh yeah,let me hold on, sick, let
me get to the stats here.Most Americans do take their vacation days in
chunks. Japan. We're right therewith Japan. Prefers long weekends. A

(12:09):
report from Expedia found Americans take fewerdays off than any other country in the
world. On average, Americans willtake twelve vacation days a year. That's
the average across the board, andfifty percent over fifty percent actually don't use
all twelve of those days. That'sdespite the fact that, see, that's

(12:31):
crazy, man, I'm gonna takeevery single day off I have the opportunity
to take off. That's despite thefact that two thirds of us feel like
we don't sleep or don't step awayenough rather, and the top excuse was
life is just too busy to plana vacation. Japan actually gets fewer paid

(12:52):
days off eleven one less than us, but they're much more likely to take
them all, and they're much morelikely to break them up again. Americans
tend to take days in chunks ballJapanese like the like three day weekends.
I like that. I like thethree day weekend. Yeah, so who
takes the most vacation days. Iwould have guessed France. Yep, it's
France, you guessed it. Idated a French girl when I was in

(13:15):
college, and I remember just beingfascinated by the fact that she would take
thirty days off every year straight thirtydays, took a month off every year,
straight month month in the summer,gone for the whole month. And
that's normal for the French. Theaverage worker in France gets twenty nine days

(13:35):
paid off a year. That's twoand a half times what Americans get.
And somehow the French still don't thinkthat's enough. They think they're shorted.
Seventy percent of French people think theydeserve more time off. Yeah, they
used to. She was telling me. There's like in the summer, you

(13:56):
know, some of the cities willjust die, she said, because people
just like month of August for example, everybody just leaves for the months.
The economy. I don't know,I don't know, I don't know,
but it's like I'm like, thirtydays you just take off for a month.
Well, yeah, how do yourecharge if you don't do that,
Like it's totally normal to them.They think it's weird if you don't do

(14:18):
that. It is hard to planany kind of vacation, Like you know,
we're going to be off next weekor not not this not Monday,
but the week after that following we'reoff. Yeah, and so I'm already
like trying to plan. Oh,I don't plan there, I had to
get unless I'm traveling, I don'tplan anything. Well, I'm trying to
plan, like for why while I'mgone. Like the things that I'm here's

(14:43):
done. Yeah, it's really justkind of doing it aheaf. You're doing
it wrong. I know you justgot to say sorry, off gone.
I've told you this. I don'tknow how many times I can tell you
this. You shut your cloat herewatch this to see this laptop. Watch
right, I just closed it.It doesn't open for seven days. Right,
see this phone? Shut it off. That's it. Turn it back

(15:03):
on in seven days. That I'mserious. It's the only way, man,
because if you don't, you're notlike in the back of your head,
you're not stressing over the things thatI try not to do. I
used to, but I don't doanymore because I'm just like it's not worth
it, and it gives me agood three or four days to like get
into vacation mode. And then bythat time out of vacation. They say,

(15:26):
I read a and that's the waythe French describe it. They're like,
well, the first week is likeby the end of the week,
you're finally relaxing, right, andthen they're like, you know, then
you have two weeks of vacation andthen the last week is getting ready to
prepare to go back to work.But I read this thing that these bunch,
I think it was in like psychologymagazine or something. They said that

(15:48):
really vacation should be like three weeksbecause they say it does take about a
week to go into you know,most people that take a week vacation are
just starting to relax on like daysix or seven. Yeah, and there's
no you know, so they sayyou should do that, and then you
should have that time and then youshould have time to prepare and work your
way back up to going to work. But like that, I yeah,

(16:10):
you gotta you gotta shut it off, man, because if you don't,
everybody and the mother will completely takeadvantage of you. Well, I'm closing,
like as far as like phone down, like anything that has to do
with like like this show. I'mlike disconnecting for that week. But then
there's those there's those other things.Don't care that I still am gonna have

(16:32):
to don't care. It's called whatit's called vacation, don't care. Sorry,
keep sorry. I can do thatwhen I return like that, like
that attitude. Well you have to, man, you have to. You
have to otherwise. I mean,you know, people will take advantage of
it. They'll just be like,well, he'll do it, he'll do

(16:52):
this, he'll do that. Ohhe's on vacation. That's sorry, give
a call, he'll do this.Oh he'll quickly do that. And that
piles up and you see it allthe time. Right. So I think
the only way to disconnect is toone hundred disconnect. Put the out of
office on it and say do youuse the out of office on your email?

(17:15):
Good? There you go. That'sa start. It lets people know,
hey, you can't reach me rightnow. Right it is uh seven
seventeen coming up, we have yourfinal letter. It's Friday for the big
Word of the week. We're gonnagive away some sticks and foreigner tickets for
the big show, and we've gotthe word both. Most of you have
figured it out by now. MaybeI wonder if I could change that to

(17:37):
something else and totally screw everybody up. I don't know, it might be
tough. I'm looking at it,yeah, and I'm like, I could
turn it into a brand name.But that now, now, let's keep
it weight. Just trying to messwith you guys. So somebody's gonna win

(17:59):
those tickets. Just a few here. It is DC's Class Crockets Big one
hundred, DC's Classic crock Base Pickone hundred. So they found the oldest
wine in liquid form ever, twothousand years old. They found it in
southern Spain, unearthed at two thousandyears old. I went to a beer
tasting. I might have talked aboutthis before. You remember the big beer

(18:22):
guy. He was a big beercritic, wrote a couple of books,
also wrote a book on whiskey.I have his whiskey book. His name
is Michael Jackson. Yeah, it'sgreat. He died. He died.
He had Parkinson's and I think heslipped, Honestly, I think he slipped
in his shower in his bathroom anddied not long after. I went to
one of his his beer things,like one of his little lectures. So

(18:44):
it's kind of a bummer and sucha nice guy, and he was.
I went up to buy a bookand he was. They had just sold
out of the beer book, andI was like, damn it. He's
like, but I have this whiskeybook and he signed it for me,
but he would speak. He hadParkinson's, but I didn't know. We
didn't know, and we're like,dude, he's getting ripped. He's drunk

(19:08):
because he's kind of shaking, he'sblurring and kind of wobbling. And I
said, we said. We werechoking around some people afterwards and we're like,
man, he likes to drink.And they're like, oh, no,
he actually has Parkinson's. He doesn'tdrink a lot. I'm like,
get out of here. I waslike, it's like he was up there
drunk and we were all like,this guy's great. But it was one

(19:33):
of these tastings where it was itwas it like pen in Philly, and
it was non traditional, like beersare made with wet grains, right,
it was made like non traditional beers. So it was like race beers and
all these you know, strange things. So some of them, yeah,
some of them were good. Someof them were But the most interesting one

(19:56):
they had was they had found somea pot in a cave in China from
the sixteen hundreds and it was theearliest known beer and it wasn't in liquid
form. They were able to scrapethe residue from from the inside of the
pot, you know, do whatscientists do and determine what was in it.
And it was one of the firstknown like beers, but it was

(20:19):
made with odd stuff, dude,like rice, different kinds of flowers.
So these mad scientists decided they weregoing to recreate it. Stuff was nasty.
It tasted like you were drinking flowers. He it was. I mean,
I guess if that's all that wasaround back then, you wanted to

(20:41):
you know, I don't know.It's like, yeah, I'm not a
fan of this. What's the prisonwine called? You know, the wine
just ferment anything they can. Ithink they make it out of whatever they
can ferment, right, prison wine. I watched something. Oh my god,
I found an the count. Ihave to send this to you.

(21:03):
I found an account on Instagram andit's all it's a it's a prison account.
So it's a compilation of all thevideos that are made in prisons.
So it's fascinating, dude, thathow creative these people get, like how
to how they sneak cell phones in, how they charge those cell phones without
chargers, and one of them wasthem making prison wine, and how they

(21:26):
how they like will take anything thatwill ferment and make booze out of it,
and how they how they have littlebarbecues and cooking their cells and it's
insane, dude. Some of it'spretty elaborate. You're like, holy crap.
And but the big thing is likehow they get the cell phones in
and then you know there'll be videosof guys like you know, what do

(21:48):
you need? What do you Well, here's what I got And he's got
like fifteen different phones on his bedand he's like selling them. And then
you're like, well, they don'thave chargers, so they make chargers and
they use like batteries and it's insane, dude. As soon as it pops
up on my feet again, I'llsend it to you. But it's all
just inside prisons and how creative theyget with things to make things where it's

(22:11):
just nuts nuts. But yeah,the the and that was only from the
sixteen hundreds, and that was nasty. It was nasty. It was interesting,
and the story behind it was reallycool, and the way he told
the story was really cool to whereyou were excited to try it and you
tried it and went, oh,because you thought it was working on him.

(22:33):
Yeah, well, we went tohe did two sessions, right,
He did like a like an elevento one and a three to five or
something, right, and he getsup there and speaks on beer and he
walks you through the tasting and theybring him around. There's like six different
beers and he explains each one andhow it's made. It's really cool.
Right. But we went to thesecond session and so we thought, man,

(22:56):
he's been drinking all day. Hewas totally sober, ites his health
was failing, and it was somewhathumorous. Someone my dad has Parkinson,
So I know I've seen it.He's not recognized at that time. No,
I didn't back then, I didn'tknow. Yeah, that's crazy.

(23:21):
Hey, coming up, I wantto talk about this. Just around the
corner. We're gonna give you aletter real quick here, but I want
to talk about this. I thinktwenty twenty nine. If AI doesn't take
over before then kill us all.Twenty twenty nine, is it? That's
when we're all going to die.There's a large asteroid coming. How's that
for a tease? That's coming up? It's time for the letter. The

(23:42):
big word of the week on Bigone hundred. Today's letter is the letter
oh. The letter OH is anoutstanding the letter OH that completes the word
give a buzz one eight hundred fournine and three one double o three,
and we will set you up withtickets for sticks and foreign if you know
the word. Here's what we're gonnado. We're gonna take caller number ten

(24:02):
that a couple people reach out andsay, hey, you gotta do something
for us streamers. And the moreI thought about it, I was like,
yeah, the stream can often beanywhere from thirty seconds to like a
minute behind if you're listening on theapp, And so when we do the
first caller through, it doesn't thestreamers never get a chance to win.
And we've had some people say,man, I can't, like you've already

(24:23):
given it away by the time Ihear it. So one eight hundred four
nine three one double o three.What we'll do is we'll we'll get like
ten calls deep, which buys ussome time before we get a winner.
Right, So give a buzz goodluck from DC's Classic Rockets Big one hundred,
DC's Classic Crockets Big one hundred,and we'll see if we can get

(24:44):
a winner here on the big wordof the week. Hi, who's this
Neil Walter? Neil, how areyou this morning? Wonderful, awesome Neil,
if you've been listening throughout the weekand collected enough letters radio, yes
that there, Oh that you go. It's rude, it is rodeo.
Nice job right off. Well,hold on, man, and we're gonna
get you set up with tickets.Okay, all right, wow next week

(25:07):
we will have aerosmid tickets up forgrabs all week long right here on DC's
Class Crock. It's big one hundred. DC's Class Crock is big one hundred.
That's Bonchobi and living on a prayerJackson here. So in Apocalypse News
this morning, an asteroid that saysof the Empire State Building it's gonna zip
past us in twenty twenty nine,come closer to hitting Earth than any large

(25:32):
asteroid in human history. They expectit to miss us by about nineteen thousand
miles. That is nothing. There'sone tenth of the distance to the Moon,
like in space distance. That's likelook over there and get this.
It's happening on a Friday the thirteenth. This may be the one that eventually

(25:55):
takes us out. Go to behonest, with you, no joke.
It's not gonna hit it in ourour lifetimes, hopefully, they say it
won't. Friday the thirteenth at fiveforty five Eastern time, April thirteenth,
twenty twenty nine. That's the exactOh wow, this is This one is

(26:17):
the same size as the one theythey theorized took out the dinosaurs. They
named it Opofie. It's bigger thanninety percent of other space rocks. And
it will pass nineteen thousand miles justover nineteen thousand miles from the Earth's surface,
the closest approach of an asteroid thatsize that human kind has ever experienced.

(26:41):
And it will I mean that isso close. It's going to pass
between the Atlantic Ocean and the satellites. It'll be below satellites, some of
the geostationary satellites, so like ifanything bumps into it between now and then,
it'll be visible to the naked eyeas it crosses the Atlantic. A
few billion people throughout Europe, Africa, and Asia will be able to see

(27:02):
it. It doesn't sound like we'llsee it here, and if the night
skies are clear, they'll they'll seeit pass for a few hours. We
just we won't see it on thatday, or we won't see it at
all. This seems like going tobe approaching for a long time. Yeah,
but I think it's the way it'sapproaching that's passing over the Atlantic closer
to Europe. It was discovered exactlytwenty years ago this week, and it

(27:26):
was discovered by the kitt Peak NationalObservatory, who revealed that it orbits the
Sun every three hundred and twenty fourdays, comes close to Earth every decade
or so. So it hit theheadlines after the paper was published when they
calculated, you might remember this yearsago, that it could actually strike Earth
in twenty twenty nine, twenty thirtysix, or twenty sixty eight based on

(27:48):
its path. So they named itApophus, the Egyptian demon of chaos and
destruction. Even though there's only atwo points seven percent chance of a direct
hit by this asteroid, the devastationcaused by this one striking Earth not pretty

(28:11):
bigger than the one that took outthe dinosaurs. And the thing is is
they've determined now it will not strikein twenty twenty nine or any of those
following days I gave. But theycan only calculate so far out in the
future, so after that they don'tknow because it becomes difficult to calculate for

(28:34):
whatever reason. Is this an asteroidthat's in orbit in our solar system that
goes around it says it orbits theSun every three hundred and twenty four days,
So it's it's like in our solarsystem. Yeah, it's orbiting the
Sun. Why have we never heardabout this? We did years and years
ago. They it was all overthe news when they were like they'd discovered

(28:57):
this asteroid that they think is goingto hit us day and everybody goes,
huh, crickets, it's the samething we hate, by the way,
you know, that whole alien thing. Yeah, that's that exists. Crickets.
But you say, you say howmany days it orbits the Sun?
Every three hundred and twenty four days. It goes around the Sun, so

(29:21):
it's uh, it has shorter yearsthan Earth. Yeah, so it's like
right next to us, yeah,and it is always there. Yeah,
but I think it's it's you know, I'm trying to see if it lists
here, like it's furthest distance,because they see its furthest and its closest
and every ten years ago, itgets really close. Every ten years or

(29:41):
so it gets really close. Andthe closest it gets is in twenty twenty
nine, twenty thirty nine, andin twenty sixty nine. Those are the
three dates they can calculate out andgo, this is the closest it's gonna
get to us. They've determined thatnone of those are close enough to be

(30:02):
a danger, but that can't calculateany further outside of that. So that's
not to say, in twenty seventynine, twenty eighty nine, you know
whatever, our AI overlords will beable to take care of it by then,
though, maybe able to wipe usout. We should shoot a nuke
at it and just see what happens, fire guns at it. I don't

(30:22):
know, damn did this submarines?There you go, there you go.
So they say we're safe for now, but wow, how crazy is that
going to be? Is going tobe so close, so close that people
at least on you know, inEurope and Africa will be able to just
stand out there and look at itfor hours as across the the sky.

(30:44):
It's nuts eight o'clock. It's DC'sclassic Rocket's Big one hundred. DC's Classic
rock is big one hundred and there'sa simple minds. Don't you forget about
me? Jackson here. You knowthat guy that owned the company that remember
at the minute he sub the Titanicsubmersible that imploded. That guy that happened

(31:07):
a year ago this week. Heis the co founder, surviving co founder
of that company. This guy,and he's trying to plan a manned mission
to Venus, says he knows howto keep the astronauts safe. Does he
know? Would you trust this guy? No? No, he's like,

(31:29):
Yo, looking for astronauts, wantto send you to Venus. Don't worry,
we got this figured out. I'dbe like, yeah, bro,
you don't have a very good trackrecord. Man, that old Titanic thing
didn't work out. I don't knowthat same for Venus. This time.
It was a scary, scary thing, you know because remember for days they
had no idea, they had noidea that they just lost contact with it.

(31:51):
And then as time went by,you were like, oh man,
this is not going to be good, and it's not going to be good.
All I kept thinking was God,I hope that was And they say
it was that that depth, withthat pressure, the implosion would have just
like disintegrated everything, because all youcan hope is that it was just quick
man, because what a terrible thing. There's some rich guy on there with
his sun. Yeah, even hisson went down to like check it out.

(32:13):
So it was one of the ownersof the company on board with the
with the other people. So Ithink so, I think one of the
co founders was on on the submersialand this is the surviving guy. This
is the guy that was not onthere, and so he's like, let's
go to Venus, all right,So it didn't work going to the Titanic.
How about Venus? I don't know. You know, Venus's surface is

(32:34):
like eight hundred degrees fair enough.Oh, that's ridiculous, it's insane.
Although you know the whole I sawsomething on Discovery Channel or someplace, you
know, how the Goldilocks zone.That's like the zone in our solar system
where where life can exist, youknow, if there's water and we're in
the Goldilock zone, right, Butthey say that that zone keeps moving,
It keeps moving, moving, moving, and it moves over millions of years,

(32:58):
right like out order, I thinkoutward, which is apparently why some
people are so obsessed with Mars becauseyou know, God knows how many years
from No, I don't know howmany years it is, ten thousand,
fifty thousand, whatever it is,Mars might be in the Goldilocks Zone.
So if there's water there, thenyou know, tens of thousands of years
from now, you could actually,you know, Mars might be like Earth.

(33:22):
So I found that fascinating. Butthen they started showing like AI pictures
of what Venus looked like when itwas in the Goldilock Zone, because I
guess it's the closest really outside ofthe temperature to Planet Earth. The reason
is so hot, it's not becauseit's closest to the Sun, but because
the greenhouse effect the atmosphere. Yeah, and he can't escape it. That's

(33:45):
the right. And these guys weretheorizing that Venus was at one point millions
of years ago, was in theGoldilock Zone and was like Earth. It
was just apparently beautiful. I'm like, that's crazy to even think about ice.
It's just theories, but still awesome. And then they were showing like
these like AI versions of here's whatwe think it looked like. It's like

(34:07):
whoa Jungles waterfalls mountains. It's prettyepic, so who knows. I wonder
how long it does take, Likeif if that theory is true, maybe
it's not even a theory, maybethey've proved it. I don't know.
But if Mars will eventually be inthe Goldilock zone, when is that all

(34:27):
right? Those planets still considered inthe Goldilocks zone. It's just they've had
on the planet that is. Ithink they have to get to where they
have, you know, temperatures thatwe can survive in an atmosphere that we
can survive, right, but watercatastrophes happening on them light Oh, I
don't know, Like, well,I don't know. Doesn't Mars get down
to like two hundred blows zero andthen the day gets up to it?

(34:50):
You know, it's got to beat that that perfect perfect climate. But
moving that keepers us out, thatkeeps it keeps moving the way right,
like it just keeps moving outward.Apparently I'm gonna look into that because I
don't know if that's a theory orif they've proven that. But my question
being is like how many tens ofthousands of years would it be before Mars

(35:10):
is in that in that perfect sweetspot that Venus apparently used to be in,
and now we're in. I haveto think. I look at stuff
like this and go, well,you guys are forward thinkers. I like
this because they go, you know, one hundred thousand years from now,
we can live on Mars. Webetter get to work. And I'm like,
I'm going one hundred thousand years.What the crap do I care about?

(35:34):
One hundred thousand years from now,I'll be dead, My kids will
be dead, their kids will bedead. I don't care what happens one
hundred thousand years from now. Ireally admire you people that think that far
ahead. Though, good for you. I'm thinking of that far ahead for
Humanity's eight sixteen. Florida Man iscoming up. Just around the corner.
It's DC's Classic Croad, Big onehundred, DC's Classicroad, It's Big one

(35:57):
hundred. That's with or without you. There's you two Jackson here. Good
morning to you, Hey, HappyFriday. You made it. The weekend
is is funly here. So it'stime for Florida Man. Florida Man on
Tuesday, A sixty year old,well he's sixty four years old. A

(36:22):
man named Florida stole four twenty fourounce cans of Modelo beer. Clerk caught
him, said he'd let him goif the guy just paid for the beers,
or if he'd just give him back. Guy said, nope, I'd
rather go to jail. Of course, stole twenty dollars worth of beer pre

(36:45):
jumped him to begin with, butprobably even dumber to voluntarily go to jail
for it. He walked out ofa Shell gas station on Tuesday with four
twenty four ounce cans of Medella.At least he got the big boys right
right, more than a six pack. A clerk caught him, asked him
where he got the booze, andhe said from the store. I did

(37:07):
not pay for it. I stoleit. Clerk offered to let the guy
go and not call the cops ifhe'd just pay for the beer or give
it back. The guy passed onthe offer and said, nah, I'd
rather just go to jail, Sothe clerk called police. They showed up.
The guy was still there. Theyasked him what happened, and the
guy said, I got thirsty,so I decided to steal some beer.

(37:30):
He was arrested, charged with retailtheft and went to jail. I think
that guy was just looking for likeor something, because that's strange, Like
I'm gonna go steal these beers andthen stick around it wait for the police
to show up. Was he outsidewith it? Like? I guess he
was sitting outside because the guy wentoutside and saw him and said where'd you

(37:52):
get that? And he said,I stole it? Give it back and
all. I won't call the cops. Nah, I'd rather go to jail.
I wonder if he finished it beforethe cops got there. It's a
question was it worth it? Wasit worth it? Spend the night in
jail? Eight thirty three. Itis DC's Classic Crock and coming up sports

(38:13):
on tap of Donna's bus. We'llgive you a chance to win some Uh
do you have one last pair ofTedesky We do one last pair of Tdesky
Trucks tickets to give away just beforenine o'clock this morning. It's Big one
hundred's classic rock, Big One.I'm telling you, Dennis, Yeah,
if I bet Edmonton to win tonight, it's fun to hear you talk out
loud. They're gonna lose about gambling. I do. And guess what Before

(38:37):
I came here, Yeah, andmet you and Dustin right, I didn't
gamble, Yeah, and Tim Murrayand Tim Murray Yeah, he taught me.
Yeah. I said, hey,Tim, I guess we're gonna have
conversations once a week about you know, because he's in Vegas. Yeah,
And I said, but I reallydon't know anything about I got you.

(38:57):
He's like, I'm gonna teach you. And I said, all right,
I like this. He loves newbies. Well guess what. Yes, you
guys turn me into it. Degenerate, total degeneration. Now I love it.
I still feel like I'm on thesafe side of the fence because I
still only play around for like fivedollars. Here's ten dollars there. Yeah,
the the apps and those companies reallydon't care about you. They're glad
that you contribute to your five,ten, fifteen bucks, but they want

(39:21):
those whales I know, and Ijust but I'm afraid I'm gonna start going
there there. Like my first bigwin was that he needs a new microphone.
At Garcia Hainey fight, I hada gut feeling that Garcia was going
to beat him, and I wonpretty big on that one. The comedic
thing is you can now gamble onanything anything. It's really huge, yes,

(39:43):
and dangerous, totally totally. Andthen out of like the five hundred
parlays have thrown money at you winone of them. Yeah, I know,
because it's big chaos and possible parlaysfor folk still knows. Putting multiple
things together bet and the odds goreally big time if you put like four

(40:06):
or five things together, And likeTim Murray says, yeah, those are
for suckers, don't Yeah, theyare. They're the kind of fun if
you really want to really take achance and I've given you money, I've
hit like one or two of them, maybe two of them. I hit
one the other night I've had thispast NFL season, I hit two.
Yeah, and I scored some prettybig money. Yeah. Yeah, it's
all luck Yeah, totally. Howare what do you think? Man?

(40:30):
Edmonton? I like Edmonton. It'sGame six, It's yeah, it's in
Edmonton and in the great province ofAlberta. Fans are going to be nuts.
I told you this off of theyear, and we talked about this
yesterday. Edmonton in that nine toone throttling discovered that goalies weaknesses clearly got
he got pulled, and then theywon five to three in Florida, and

(40:51):
that even though that was an emptynetter, that scores not indicative how Edmonton
dominated that game. Florida came back. They've saw this goalkeeper, you know,
as well as I do. Ahot goalkeeper or if you can solve
a goalkeeper, especially in the finals, that's it. Yeah, and I
think they have. I think Edmontonhas solved him. That's a tough position
to play too, Like even evenyou can go back and look at some

(41:12):
of the greatest, like even PatrickWaugh, Like there'd be games where he
was just off, yeah, andthey would light him up, and you're
like, that's Patrick wah Let overall, the guy just big games. But
what do you think he has donethe last couple of nights when he goes
home? This Florida goalkeeper, Yeah, Bob, you know, I just
you know, they're a different breed. And I've met a lot of goalkeepers

(41:34):
I used to play. To gethis head back. First of all,
goalkeepers have a screw loose to dothat, right, they're they're weird guys.
I would think that, you know, I don't know if he's in
a meditation whatever. I think he'sprobably just trying to center himself and get
through the first period. I gotgiving up a goal. He's a probably
he might even have a like asports psychologist, or I'm sure a lot

(41:54):
of them do and I and Iwould because it's a very particular position where
people can get in your head oryou can get in your own head if
you can't stop the puck. Sowe'll see. I think the first period
is gonna be everything Edmonton. Edmontonis gonna come out flying. I mean,
they're at home. The fans aregonna be nuts if they score early.
They're winning easily tonight, and they'refavored. Now, yeah, they

(42:15):
are favored. So this is gamesix, are down three two. If
there's a game seven, unfortunately,it's gonna be on a Monday night past
your bedtime at eight o'clock. Buttonight's game that I guess you can watch
tonight on ABC and ESPN. Youcan watch a game I'm gonna watch tonight,
which is huge. If it goesto seven, I'll suck it up
and well, I'll just stay andplayed on Monday and watch it. I'll
pay for it. But boy,you're gonna be a grumpy guest on anything

(42:38):

Houston Dynamos in town, and thatcould also be heard on our sports station

Spirit on Sunday play on ESPN.They're at New York Gotham, which is
a really good NWSL team. Butwe're good. We're in third. We're

(42:59):
in third overall position in the NWSL. I've been to a couple of Spirit
games and including Trinity Rodman, who'sDennis Rodman's daughter, is a monster.
She's on Team USA as well,but to watch her in person is incredible.
She is a great athlete, she'sa goal scorer. We're lucky to
have her, but we are.Our girls are fantastic here of the Washington
Spirit. That's a really good soccerteam, so I enjoy going there.

(43:22):
Nationals are now out of town fora while, so no baseball. I
went to yesterday's game and we hadreally nice seats. I will tell you
that is the hottest I've ever beenat a ball game. It was boiling.
Tomorrow is supposed to be the workwas brutally hot yesterday. It was

(43:42):
fun and take some of the enjoyment. It was so hot. No,
I think I would have been like, yeah, let's let's do this.

they say. Take. I justwant to be the other guy. I
just want to be that's what actuallysome people do. Yeah, that's what
I'm Yeah, that's that's the ticket. All Right, you guys, you

today? What do we have?Chaeologists were digging up a tomb and they
found a two thousand year old earnwith this inside it, making it the
old ever found. I don't knowa hit. It's in its original liquid
form. Oh that's right, yeah, which still blows me away. I
can't. I almost don't believe that. How I guess it was sealed?
