and every weekend we have the Fifth Hour podcast, a
(00:20):
spin off of the terrestrial radio show. And I've been
doing double duty this week day night doubleheaders doing some
local fill in radio in La as well. But here
on the original Recipe podcast, what is the Malor report card?
Post mortem on the trade deadline? Jack Flaherty Tiger Pitcher
goes to the Dodgers. Also, which trade stood out as
(00:42):
the worst of the worst for the twenty twenty four
trade deadline? And why are the White Sox players grumbling
about their manager's motivational speech after the All Star break.
We'll go down all of those avenues and many many
more as we swim through the poopy waters of the overnight.
Right now here it is our number one. Let's make
(01:08):
a deal no more. It's all over.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Welcome in the beginning of another edition of the Ben
Malor Show, The day Night Doubleheader Street continues.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
We are in the air everywhere you listen and we
talk Talk, Talk, Talk Talk, providing the suite and sour
hour of power every hour in these parts coast to coast, border,
the border and beyond on the vast and monolithically powerful
(01:45):
microphones of FSR am monating live from the canvas is
the conversation Canvas continues. We are broadcasting live from the
Tiraq dot com studios tyract We'll help you get there
and unmatched selection, fast, free shipping, free road hazard protection
(02:07):
and over ten thousand recommended installers tyreq dot com the
way tire buying show be and aren't puffin approves of
that ten thousand numbers. So play the head small man,
play the hits big story the baseball trade deadline which
has come and gone. And I had an unusual treat
(02:29):
that I filled in locally here in La So I
was on during the day leading up to the trade
deadline and high drama on the transaction wire. If you
were not paying attention, we don't call it when you
do overnights. It's not moonlighting, it's daylighting. So I was
daylighting both as people were here in the day are
bad people, man, But I was daylighting and I happen
(02:50):
to be doing stuff on the Dodger station counting down
to the trade deadline, and there was a whole lot
of nothing. There were people being traded that we never
heard of. We had to go to like Baseball Reference
dot Com to fight out who they were. It's a
bad sign. And if you were not keeping track, the
biggest name that was traded in the context of this season,
(03:13):
it happened with three minutes to go before the deadline.
Three minutes the Doyers made a late play for a
starting pitcher who will likely likely end up starting playoff
games for the Dodgers, but they made a trade for
Jack Flaherty, who's from LA from the LA area. But
(03:35):
Jack Flaherty, that move coming down the pike there from
the Detroit Tigers. The Dodgers sent a couple of wishes
in a bottle to Detroit. That's all they had to
give up, a couple of those minor league players and
Flery twenty eight. He had been bad up until this year,
but at age twenty eight, he had put it all
(03:55):
together there for the Detroit baseball team and had an
ERA of under three for the Tigers and bunch of
strikeouts and all kinds of good nerd numbers that people
seem to like a lot like that. That a lot
those numbers. So let us discuss the question. We'll talk
about other things as well, but the question, what is
the malor report card on the Jack Flarerity trade to
(04:17):
the Doyers? Is that the biggest name that changed teams?
So on this one, I've got cupcake, jewelry box, and
diesel truck. Oh, combine all of these things together and
we are going to make the poopy waters of Perie,
is what we're going to make. Are they swimming in
that right now? Is that the Olympics? Are they are
(04:39):
swimming in the poopy water right now?
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Man? The eat coal I is coming through the TV
as we speak right now. All right, So hey, my
first thought on the Jack Flarity trade to the Dodgers
is the report card is It's not an A I
was going to give the Dodgers today. Originally my original
thought was, hey, it's an a'm g in a day.
But then after a thorough minutes long Mallor investigation, my
(05:05):
final grade is B plus. He probably didn't hear this,
but I'll give you the play by play, the blow
by blow. So I got into it with this guy
named David Vassay, this guy that used to be relatable,
but now he's you know, hangs out with all those
rich Dodger players and all that, so he's lost his
way a little bit. So hanging out with him, right
and talking to him about thirty minutes before the trade deadline,
(05:27):
and he's giving me the talking points, and I know
when I'm getting fed to talking points, my radar goes
off and my BS detector goes off. So he's trying
to tell me that the Dodgers acquiring Tommy Edmund from
the Cardinals, who hasn't played at all. We talked about
this in the previous episode show and Michael Kopek that
(05:48):
these were going to be big additions for the Dodgers.
So we tried to tell me and he's like, well,
these are the purpose with the Dodgers needed a guy
who's been a career of failure on the mound, Michael Copek,
and a guy coming off at Ristinder. So that triggered,
of course, a conniption fit by yours truly. Uh and uh,
(06:09):
I've always thought when people tell me stuff and I
know it is just bogus information. I was like, but
don't if I'm holding a cupcake. I got a cupcake
and I'm holding it up. Don't spit a loogie on
the cupcake and tell me you just put some frosting
on the cupcake. There's no there's no frosting there. You
just spit a loogie. That's what you did. And so
I was getting a loogie spit at my cupcake. I
didn't like that, and I was getting bamboozled by this.
(06:31):
And then in the end, the Dodgers ended up doing
what they have to do. They're in this is the
Goldilock zone for the Dodgers. I don't know how long
it's gonna last. Maybe it we'll last that long. But
every year they're a playoff team. Every year they're expected
to go to the World Series. That's the way it
is right now for the Dodgers, and it's something you
have to do in that culture of baseball because you
have to bring in reinforcements. You're expected to bring in
(06:56):
reinforcements because that is a vote of If you don't
trade for a name brand player, a player that's perceived
to be great, it's a vote of no confidence from
the front office. So the Dodgers did what the front
office did what they had to do. They got the
biggest name starting pitcher available. He's going to La, not
the Yankees, not the Phillies of the Red Sox. And
(07:17):
the Yankees are getting killed for not trading for Jack
Flaherty or someone who's the equivalent of Jack Flerty. How
do I know that the Yankees have leaked to useful
idiots in the media that Flarity has damaged goods and
that's why they didn't trade for him. And I was
talking to Mike Harmon in the hallways here and Jason Smith,
(07:37):
We're like we any picture in baseball, I could name
any picture in baseball. I said, that guy's gonnaet hurt.
And you know what, I'm gonna be right. They all
get hurt. Every one of them gets hurt. The question
is does Jack Flerity get hurt between now and the
playoffs or the end of the playoffs, or does he
get hurt next year or the year out. He's at
some point he's going to get hurt. That's garonteed, that's guaranteed.
(07:59):
So I gave the Dodge a B plus in the
trade because they had to get a starting pitcher, and
they did that. The only real downside is whether or
not this is a mirage the way he has pitched
in Michigan. This year, he's supposed to learn some new pitch.
We'll see if that works on the West coast. But
he had an ERA of almost five last year, and
(08:20):
he was traded, if I remember, from the Cardinals to
the Orioles at the end of last year, and it
didn't work out so well for him. In Baltimore Dodgers.
To celebrate the fact that the front office went out
and made a big trade, the Dodgers had a five
to nothing lead, and then jumped on the vomit comet
in San Diego and the pod squad went, it's so
(08:41):
great every time the potteris beat the Dodgers like they
won the World Series. It's gotta be good for the
for our friends in San Diego. It's like the biggest
thing in the word. You beat the Dodgers, Oh my god,
World Series time. Pottery's made a bunch of trades also,
which is one of those things short term gain for
long term pain, because the chatter is they're going for
it this year because they're you're going to have to
(09:01):
cut away the dead wood if you will get rid
of some of those big contracts in the off season.
So they're going all in now knowing that they're going
to have to get rid of bunch of those guys
who they already have at the end of the year.
Now turning the page, we talked about the Dodgers getting
a B plus. Now what stood out post mortem on
the trade deadline? What stood out as the worst, most
(09:22):
mind boggling trade of the twenty twenty four deadline. So
that one is easy. You open up the jewelry box
and the team that gets the Golden Fleece Award the
Houston Astros. How great is that? Completely horn swoggled, completely hornswaggled.
(09:44):
You hate to see it unless you don't. You hate
to see it unless you don't. For some reason, the
den of Iniquity decided that they were going to trade
for you see Kokuchie of the Blue Jays, a starting pitcher.
Kokuchi has the word era in baseball since late May.
(10:04):
That's not my opinion, that is fact. It is on
the record. You can look up yourself. And so with
this move Houston, I don't know if they traded anything
at all of value, but it's not about that. Suppose
that they did. I don't know who these people are.
I'm not going to sit here and pretend like some
of these hacked baseball scribes that they know who these
minor league players are. What they usually do is they
(10:24):
just go to the top one hundred rating or whatever.
So we shred to the number twenty two prospect and
that seems like it's a mistake and all that, But
I am rejoicing in schadenfreude that the a Holes made
the worst trade. I love that. It's so perfect. Suppose
they gave up some blue chip scratcher tickets and all
that for an aging pitcher who is going to be
(10:48):
a free agent at the end of the year. Now
knowing the as one thousand and two one thousand holes,
the Holes will likely end up teaching him how to
like scuff the ball or something like that, or you
come up with some cheat code down the line. Now,
last word, we quickly go to Chicago. I love the drama.
It does not involve the trade deadline, although the White
Sox made a number of trades as the Cubs did.
(11:10):
But the White Sox are currently on pace to finish
with the worst record in the modern era. Now the
modern era one hundred and sixty two game season. People
talk about the worst team of all time. They often
talk about there's a If you an old school nerd,
you go back to the Cleveland Spiders back in the day.
But for most people it's the New York Mets, the
(11:30):
Casey Stangle Mets the worst team. But the White Sox
are on pace toy have the worst trik at the
current worst record for one hundred and sixty two games.
I believe it's the Detroit Tigers, managed by Alan Trammel
years ago, but that's not the story. The story heres.
We've learned now that the manager pedro Gerfall of the
White Sox pointed this out in a team meeting after
(11:53):
the All Star break, trying to motivate the team. It's
like a pep talk. Listen, you guys are on pace
to be the biggest suck bag baseball team of all time.
You'll always be remembered for that. You can change that
by winning some games. I'm paraphrasing. You can go out
there and win some games and then you will not
have this stain, this skid mark on your resume. So
(12:14):
how did that go? Well? How about a mutiny on
the bounty or in this case, a mutiny on the
sinking ship. Why are White Sox players supposedly grumbling this
has gotten out in the public theater. Why are White
Sox players grumbling about a seemingly benign motivational attempt by
the White Sox manager. So the obvious answer here is
(12:36):
it hits close to home. I can't think of any
other answer to that. It hits close to home. And
all those White Sox players who have lived up to
the hype, they were supposed to be bad, and they've
been beyond expectations, and they're right now praying at the
Church of victim with like there's somehow the victim. How
are you the victim? The manager doesn't play, you're out
(12:56):
there actually playing. You're the ones striking out, You're the
ones blowing save the other ones having bad at bats
and all that is no accountability, chronic complainers, the White Sox,
And how dare you point out the truth? Who do
you think you are? You can't tell us that you
might hurt us, We might need a therapy dog or
something like that. My god, shame on you. Which the
(13:19):
funniest part about this story out of the White Sox
camp is it actually validates the manager. I don't know
Pedro Griffall. I actually know somebody that knows him pretty
well thinks he's a good guy. But that's aside the point.
I don't know him, and I couldn't tell you whether
he could manage his way out of a wet paper bag. However,
the fact that he's trying to motivate his team by saying, hey,
if you play a little better, play a little harder,
(13:40):
et cetera, you'll win a few games. You won't be
the worst team of all time. And the reaction is
that these people are pushing back against that. You're driving
the diesel truck. It's a mister softy truck, is what
you're driving, the diesel truck. Mister softy. It's soft serve
is what it is. This would be the Ben Maler Show.

Speaker 6 (17:58):
I would have liked to have heard that.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Yeah, we went. We went back and forth. And I
blame Bernie Brewer because once he went down that slide
in Milwaukee and broke his wrist. Ever since then, he's crip.
He's changed. Crying Craig, and Seattle says, I cried, baled
my eyes out when the Mariners traded for Justin Turner.
(18:20):
I expect him to bring some major veteran leadership to
the team. Yeah, very emotional crime, Craig. He's always crying.
Wait till you see Justin Turner play at this age,
you'll be crying watching him play. Also, Spock's weed very
excited in Oregon. He says the vomit comet has returned.
A head of the news, says Ben A plus on
the Olympic poopy water monologue that's upcoming. I'm watching the
(18:43):
feces water race live right now, and there are security
dudes and kayaks following the contestants. What's the purpose of
this lifeguarding water testing for a COOLi yeah, well, they're
probably worried that the players in the in the river
there might ready into a turd. They might have that.
Maybe they're there to push the turds away so they can't.
(19:05):
You know, there might be some like rocks. They won't
get those out of the way there, But no, I
saw them. I don't know. I I'm watching with like
half an eye. I'm doing a doing a little radio show.
So Eugene in Chicago, Dodger hater Eugene, of course, if
I was in Chicago, I wouldn't send comments about the
White Sox with the Cubs either, He says. My podres
(19:26):
are coming for the number one. There you go. That's
a Chicago sports fan right there, eug Who When I
was in Chicago and I said, hey, Eugene, why don't
you hang out. I'm in town for a couple of days.
I'm too busy. Guy's working his butt off. I understand. Yeah, absolutely,
there you go. Matt the Warrior Raider fan says, you

Speaker 6 (19:50):
Oh boy, but.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Doesn't that It just involve a lot of well, much
like the river in Parie. You you're clearing out your system.
In fact, if you were what it's all about, if
you were in Paris, you could go there and just
empty out the old system. How much weight do you
lose when you do that? What do you what are
you looking at there, Eddie? What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (20:10):
Well?
Speaker 6 (20:10):
I have done it once and I didn't weigh myself
before and after. But you didn't all that you should
have Wait not, No, I didn't think about it. On
They say there's like a bunch of that stuff that
you can get rid of. You can lose like five
ten pounds or something like that. I don't know about that. No,
not that much pounds, sure, but I don't know. Only
a couple of pounds.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Are you talking about like in your testing you clear?
Speaker 3 (20:29):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Yeah, those poop teas?
Speaker 7 (20:31):
Yeah, I've heard great things. I'm not I don't believe it.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
But you don't need to do it. Do It'll be
a skeleton if you do that. Are you kidding me?
Come on? I didn't smell any food though from the
lorrain and when I came in here. No, oh you did.
I brought Mexican today, but I didn't smell it.
Speaker 7 (20:45):
Yeah, I had a taco and an enchilada, all right.
Asking Robin's ice cream for dessert?
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Yeah, oh nice? Oh yo dessert. I wait as much
as you would have dessert too. Oh look at that. Wow,
you get a whole pint of ice cream. It's the
best ice cream I've ever had in my life. What
kind of what flavor is it? What is he be

Speaker 7 (21:06):
Beach day? Beach Day's special summertime flavor?
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Oh for the summer?
Speaker 7 (21:10):

ice cream.
Speaker 1 (21:13):

Speaker 7 (21:15):
Turtles frosting flakes. Oh sorry, flex frosting flex and Graham
Cracker swirls, which Coop dies for.
Speaker 6 (21:25):
Yeah, it does sound pretty good, doesn't that?
Speaker 1 (21:27):
That's not a that's only during the summer, only during
That's like they're mag rib they only have it during
the summer. Okay, all right, Nature boy says, how do
you say naked blue man in French?
Speaker 6 (21:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
You just watched the opening ceremois. I don't even say it.
It's it's right in front of you. There, that's all
you gotta do. Let's see anyway, Uh it is the
bed maashow. Do we have this ready to go here?
Cooper loop. So many people are trying to figure out
who the next play by play guy for the Yankees is.
They forced John Stirling out he was too old, he
was making mistakes.
Speaker 6 (21:54):
Oh do we have Carton on the call today?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Uh? No, no, no, we have the great Ricky Ricardo.
Now when I was a kidd on.
Speaker 6 (22:00):
The one.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Ricky Ricardo, he's the Spann in one of the Spanish brocts.
I know you're old. Nobody else knows that anybody under
the age of like forty does he know.
Speaker 6 (22:10):
That's right for you?
Speaker 1 (22:14):
But I'm gonna guess most people don't know that. Ricky Ricardo,
I love lose anyway, who cares? So this guy's been
doing something. They've been rotating, trying to figure out who
they want to be the permanent broadcast or replace John
Sterling and the Yankees had a dramatic comeback against the Phillies,
and Ricky Ricardo was on the mic on WFA and
New York and many convinced that this home run call
(22:37):
has given him the edge. He's the favorite. Now for
the Yankee play by play job. Let's go to the
audio tape. That's one for eight with five strike Stroum
pitches hold on Jae Teright, that goes Castanos at the
long smooth chess Chess it again his fourth home running
(23:06):
the series. Jazz Chisholm Junior.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
Is a Bronx farmer from the Bahamas.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
And he puts the Yankees on four jazz ches it again.
All right, that's.
Speaker 6 (23:22):
He's doing Sterling ass guy, he's doing.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Hey when you're sitting in the John Sterling chair, he's
honoring the tradition. It's just like the guy that does
the Dodgers now doing a rip off, like well, he's
doing more of a rip off Joe Buck. But it's
the same concept. Right Man can Man can at ah
Man John Sterling. You think you can get him on
the show right now? I have his number. I can
call him up. You think he's awaken you at two
(23:46):
thirty in the morning in New Jersey?
Speaker 6 (23:49):
Probably not, probably not. Maybe in the final hour he
might be getting up, right.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
That's true. Super Marcus Steve says, I do like that
smooth jazz though. That reminds me of my DJ days
is super Marcus Steve says, ever since you mentioned that
I was excited about a player I had no clue
was on the Yankees and Jazz Chisholm Junior. He has
hit four home runs with ten runs battered in and
his batting over three hundred. The curse of the Benbino
(24:16):
is not real. That's what I'm saying. Yeah, if I remember,
if I remember correctly, King of Schmuck's Supermarcus Steve. Who's
a That guy's an instigator. He's gonna be at the mall.
You're gonna meet him, Lorraine at the Malt.
Speaker 7 (24:28):
Of meet Well my name right on his Hello, my
name is tag.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Yeah. He's he's a trouble maker and he's the guy
behind the great shopping cart Caper. He's also the feud
with Vassa. Much of it started by Super Marcus Steve.
But I did a monologue about a Jazz Chisholm trade
and he ripped me for it. And now the guy's
the greatest Yankees since like Babe, Ruth ferg dog rights
and says, Ben, please tell me the Angels found a sucker.
(24:54):
We'll entertain Anthony Rendon before the trade deadline. I'm so
tired of that bum. He had zero home runs and
he's on the I L again. Well, that's exactly what
they traded him. They traded into the Angels. He is
in mid season fourm Anthony Rendon.
Speaker 6 (25:07):
I did go to the that Angels game with Sirius
Sean playing the game. Uh serious, Sean did not. He
was not called in. No, he did not. They got
those giant posters up in front of the stadium and
they got Trout.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
And Rendon side. Is there a more depressing team in
baseball than the Angels? Seriously, Mike Trout. They said, you
see what he said about him.
Speaker 6 (25:29):
He's probably got another setback, didn't he.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
They say, he's probably not going to play the rest
of the year. Well, shoot, well, because I mean it's
kind of like the gig. What is he waiting for?
They're not gonna make the playoffs next year? Like these
are his prime athletic years slipping away? Like, what are
you waiting for? I don't know. Maybe if you wanted
to play, if you actually like baseball, you'd want to
be out there and play. I don't know.

Back to the Olympics, as you mentioned, going on right
now after days of delays and uncertainty over water quality
in the river Sine. The men's women's Olympic triathle on
races going forward, the women's going on right now.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
It is morning and parents watching it. Is this glistening
like a golden brown tint to the ladies? Is they
are on the bicycles now?
Speaker 6 (26:36):
The decision to go ahead and make it on the
water sane swim comes after organized said the latest test
of water showed compliance with quality appliance.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Does not all the poop went away?
Speaker 6 (26:48):
Eddie?
Speaker 1 (26:49):
It all went away? Just like that? Is it now?
It looks like it's the streets are wet. Did it rain?
There's been you know, summertime rain and all that. In France.
Speaker 6 (27:00):
It was raining for the opening ceremony, So I guess
it's no.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
But I'm saying the street on the street of the
wet does is?
Speaker 6 (27:05):
It isn't?
Speaker 1 (27:05):
Don't they tell us that they told us that when
it's wet, this's when it's worse that. Yeah, the poop
goes out in the river when it's wet, and the
men's race is supposed to come up after the women
back to back, belly to belly.
Speaker 6 (27:18):
Partly cloudy in France right now, but thunderstore.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
But I'm looking at the street looked like it already
rained this morning in France.
Speaker 6 (27:26):
Doesn't it's wet. It's definitely wet.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Yeah, Oh Eddy, down goes a lady down. Ladies down,
Eddie on the ground in agony. The race must go.
Speaker 7 (27:38):

Speaker 1 (27:43):
Somebody get a mop out there, clean up the message.
This is a shot at super Muy is the the
Ben Malors show.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
As we are rolling, rolling, rolling.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
On through the over night hours. Good to have you
hanging out with us as we work our way through,
worked our way through the overnight hours JJ from Renton Wrights,
and he says, what do you think about the Mariners
this year? I liked that they actually made an effort.
The front office made an effort because the way the
(28:17):
Mariners were playing leading into the trade deadline, you would
have thought they would be like, oh, it's not our year,
we're falling apart. But you gotta look at the math.
Right in baseball, if you're even an average team, you
look at the math, you're like, hey, you got a shot.
You got to go for it. The last five years,
we have seen I think four teams that were mediocre
(28:39):
during the regular season that ended up getting the World
Series and one of them won it, the Atlanta Braves
the year they won it. They weren't very good during
the regular season, but they won it. And the Mariners
are in first place in the American League West, only
five games over five hundreds. So hey, good job by
the front office attempting to reorganize the deck chairs. Let's
(29:01):
go to let's see your keg drinking Steve is hanging out. Hello,
keg drinking Steve. I think he's in Nebraska. I thought
he was in Missouri, but I think he's man.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
This is the greatest thing I think I've ever seen.
I'm watching the Olympic PCs water racing and this is
the port that the Malor Militia can get me hot.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
Well we have yeah, we need to have.
Speaker 8 (29:26):
An advertising down.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
They've just got out of the pecs cooopy water now
some of them, some of them haven't put their bathing
taken off their bathing suit. So now after they've got
the bactry on there never fallen down on the chancell
A and I'm around the off the trio. The hospitals
(29:48):
are going to be full of This is like watching
Evil Canievil jump. Steak River Canyons is a live action
report from the Mawor Militia of the future health disaster.
And somebody also reffluence the security.
Speaker 8 (30:08):
Guys and the kayak.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
There's about eighty racers and there's two little fat kayak
guys with fishing hats in the Nova River. I don't
know what the hell they're doing there. They're not gonna
be able to do anything. You're not gonna be able
to save anybody.
Speaker 8 (30:22):
They're just gonna call the cops in case they die
from the bacteria and the feces and the poop. So
I think that's what's transpired. So I guess we got
the men coming up.
Speaker 3 (30:33):
The men will run the gauntlet after afterwards of disease
and death. But I gotta I gotta give these women pops.
But you gotta put on your you gotta put on
your cycling gear. That's that's the big hit that I've
learned so far. You must you you must cover up
your bathings while you're covered bacteria before you get off
(30:53):
the race, before you get down the shans. That's that's
what I've learned tonight.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Under that sentence I didn't like, and I am I
am told by the way. Yeah, this is just into
us here that the winner will of this triathlon will
not win a gold medal. It'll be a brown medal.
So to honor that, a little poop emoji medal. So congratulations.
Speaker 8 (31:14):
There's to Los Angeles and then have our homeless community,
you know when they do when they.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Send them off the riverside or whatever. Maybe they can
volunteer for this. I mean, this is this this.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
Well, I don't well, you could you could do. You
could get e coli in the water right outside like
Venice Beach or Santa Monica. Occasionally there is E Coli there,
So you could get the same situation in twenty twenty eight,
depending on the way.
Speaker 8 (31:39):
We're up the aquatic waterways and have a and have
a race there.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
This is this is something that Los Angeles can co
opt in twenty twenty eight and make it even better.
But boy it, this is the greatest event I've seen
so far.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
It is amazing. I'm all into it. I am riveted.
I am absolutely riveted. I'm so happy I'm on the
air to do this. So eyewitness accounts Keg drinking Steve
eyewitness report as he's watching the triathlon, the women's triathlon,
as the ladies have swam through poop and they're now
springing on the bicycle there they're bringing me a colei
(32:15):
