We told you the man was all about entertainment.
How's it going, Drew? Can I go back to vacation?
Jesus. So great to be here guys.

(03:49):
Sorry these. Are things I find on the
Internet and I'm Christopher. Remember, I think he used, was
it Christopher? Was that the name he used for
Manic Monday? And then he used a different
name for Nothing Compares to You.
I mean, the guy was just so unbelievably talented.
He just spread it all around you.
Should we hurry? There we go.
Unbelievably talented. Exactly.

(04:09):
That's exactly I would just describe myself.
Sorry, sick. Let's go ahead and let's do a
flashback. Here's the intro.
Yeah. Hello and welcome to a very
special flashback because I'm going to introduce you now
Flashbacks. And now flashbacks.

(04:32):
Let's have a look at this. Just play the intro.
OK, this one comes to us from our friend Adam Bedwell.
No, no, no, I'm not interested. No, there was a small window of
opportunity to think that windowwas closed.
Don't be like that. What it make you happy to know
there about is 15 minutes to go before the close of the
charitybuzz.com auction. I am sick to my stomach to spend

(04:56):
the evening with Scarlett Johansson on the red carpet
world premiere of We Bought a Zoo.
I am in knots right now in New York City, auction closes at 10,
being yesterday, bid 7 grand, thinking I burned Kevin.
Wouldn't that be funny? And by the way, thinking
correctly that at the last minute, usually someone comes in

(05:16):
and just snags it. That's usually what happened.
We haven't reached the last minute yet, right?
But we all, we all thought it would be by today at this time.
Are you kidding? I thought it would have jumped
ahead by now, 15 minutes. Bean has seven grand and he
hasn't told us why. Let's hold on, please.
I just thought it would be funnyyesterday on the show.
Now I'm leading the auction. But now if there's a chance I

(05:39):
might actually win it, I don't know what to do.
Listen, I don't know what to do.I don't know what to do either
because I want to stay on the air until 10:00.
Well, we'll have to play some commercials and come back, but
we don't have any choice we have.
We have to stay in the air to 10:00 to find out.
Usually we leave a little early before 10:00.
The affiliates know down the line do we have we don't have
any. No, we're good.
We're clean. What comes to a Phillies now?

(06:01):
Should I just make a real quick show so we can get out and then
get back and have what's the timing?
How's the timing work here? We're right.
You got your time. If we're out by 50, we can come
back at 55. All right.
OK. So I need to be done.
We don't need to come. OK, go ahead.
Don't worry about it. Yeah.
Hey, I'm. Hey, 7 grand Bill.
Don't worry about. Don't worry about us.
We'll handle our man America putup.
What I'm saying is go to charitybuzz.com and you do not

(06:25):
be on the red carpet with Scarlett by any means.
Do not. It's Monday night, you get to
see the Cameron Crowe film with Scarlett called We Bought a Zoo.
Please go and bid right now. Do not, do not bid.
Do not do that. Listen, I know our people.
They're not even tempted to bid.They they're dying to wait for
Bean to get burned. Bean can't even come up at 7

(06:48):
grand and he's already pledged it.
They didn't tell his wife. It's magical.
Benny writes in and has a good point here.
I was reading the fine print on the Charity Buzz site where Bean
placed his bid on the premiere with Scarlett Johansson when I
read this winner is subject to background checks and security
screenings, so Bean may have a way out.
Even if he wins, there's a strong chance they'll find out
about his animal Philia, his love of all things death, his

(07:11):
Buzz Aldrin like approach to women and deny him entry.
How dare you. We can only hope.
Charity Buzzes security team is headed up by Paul Blart and just
waved him on through crossing myfingers bending in Mission
Hills. That's true, Bean.
You may have a way out. If they if they stick with a
thorough security check, you will be bounced.
Come on, you should be. You should be getting the red
eye right now. You should be online.

(07:32):
The euphemism booking the red eye on Sunday night.
I'm sick about this, you guys. I know it's funny and all that.
It's awesome. It's funny that you're sick
about it. It's $7000 and I don't care
about kids eating. You know that, right?
No, we don't. It's not even it's not even like
I can look at this and go, well,at least it's for charity.

(07:55):
Hate it. It's great.
I'm Ralph Garman and I'm not paying $7000.
It's been evening with Scarlett Giants being update still
leading. I yeah, I'm still.
You're a winner. You are a winner, Sir.
We will be right. Bing Bing, Bing, Bing Bing.
Guys, Seriously, this is not funny.
This is funny. I feel like I'm in Times Square

(08:18):
New Year's, just waiting for theballs to drop.
Hey, Cat. Clark, it's so exciting.
It's not exciting, Kat. You know, You know what's going
on, Kat. You know what we're we're
looking at here on the website. Yes, and I cannot believe you're
even fighting this. This is.
More so fighting it. I don't think I'm gonna go.

(08:38):
Alright, here's what happened. I'm doing your.
Place I'd love to hang out with Scar.
It is non transferable. Believe me, a lot of listers
have volunteered to take my place.
It's non transferable. What happened was Ralph did the
story yesterday in the showbiz beat about how this auction
existed. And I thought, hey, it would be
wacky if I went on charitybuzz.com and I bid on it
because the next hour when Ralphis back on, I can go, hey,

(09:00):
remember the Scargio thing? Looks like I'm going to be doing
that. Ha ha ha ha, right?
Well, little did I realize that I was going to be the last
person in America to put a bid on this thing.
Because here we are now, 27 hours later and I'm still the
leading bid. It's for the animals bean.
I don't understand the animals. For kids, for.
Kids. But only for animals.
Bean would like to donate kids who love to feed children.

(09:21):
No, it's just to feed hungry children and Bean couldn't care
less. But but I didn't read.
This is not a joke and this is not a wacky radio bed.
I literally put the money in andhit and hit bit now and did not
read the fine print that indicated that it's in New York
on Monday night. So you go to new.
York, you know, they have flights there now.
So why? But because we're doing, we're
doing Acoustic Christmas, Saturday night, Monday, Monday,

(09:45):
Monday's free, wide open. Take the day off, dude.
Then I'm supposed to spend all that money to get on a plane and
fly to New York to go to this movie premiere, starters
Johansson. If you said to The Black Keys,
dudes, I got to catch a plane hanging with Scarlett Johansson,
they'd be like, dude, we take. Our private jet.
Exactly. Here you go.
Bean hates to leave shows early.So do you want the Perry to get

(10:06):
back to his hotel room to watch it on the Internet?
I've got 3 minutes left. You guys got 2 minutes here?
2 minutes to change, or two minutes even. 2 minutes even. 2
minutes even. Here's the girl.
Control doesn't give him a second.
Two minutes, 2 minutes. Alright, Ralph, you're you're
the king of the auctions. Your theory has been that
somebody going right now somebody is sitting there
waiting to hit bid now at the last possible 2nd to take this

(10:28):
from me right. That's usually what they do,
especially on a timed auction that runs out like eBay, for
example. People will sit back and then
they will what they call snipe in the last 30 seconds or so.
Sometimes you don't even give people you want to give people
you want to you want to put yourbid in only as long as it takes
to actually process. So nobody else can because about
30 or 20 seconds and by the timeyour your amount comes up, they

(10:49):
don't have time to put in another bid.
So we. Have two different clocks here
because my computer and my counter says that we're 95753.
I agree that's what I was sayingand I think that's accurate but
theirs says 2 minutes so websitesays 2 minutes left in Betty
We're going by what the website does now I just want to make
sure wife that he no I have 7. $1000 on the start.
The Donna Factor. Right, there's one minute now
that has to happen. Now he has one minute on the

(11:10):
website because I was gonna tellher about it after I didn't win
it. I could go, wow, you don't know
what a bullet we dodged by somebody else bidding on this
thing because obviously it's embarrassing and it's a
tremendous amount of money. Is he still on the lead?
He's still on the lead. They're showing a minute left on
the website. Oh my God, we are refreshing.
He is still #1 still at the top of the list with not funny.

(11:32):
A minute in change remaining. A minute in change remaining so
no one steps in and bids. There's only a minute $7000.
You're on a zoom beam. He's.
Currently still a number one buya zoom.
What part are you missing? Still still a minute there.
There's still staying a minute left.
There's a minute and change I guess.

(11:53):
And hey, I'm surprised it only shows a minute.
What are you doing? What are you counting?
But you're not counting. What are you counting?
Following them. Don't follow anything.
And here's the thing, this doesn't show you seconds like
eBay does. So someone we're going to put in
last minute bit. I think they would have done it
by now, I think so it's over andbeing one.

(12:22):
Is over and Bean is the little it just happened $7000.
This is uncool guys, that just happened.
This is really uncool. And by uncool you mean awesome.

(12:44):
No, the greatest thing. Ever.
Merry Christmas, everybody. Nobody was counting on Christmas
bonuses. No one was looking at me this
year, right? No.
Great. Wow.
It's not. Their fault.
I've been shocked. I'm shocked that no one came in
at the last minute because therewere several people look at the
bid history who did multiple bids.
I thought there was some die hard Scarlett Johansson fans out

(13:06):
there who really wanted to to bespend the night with her.
It's going to be B Do not do nottell Donna B yes, until tomorrow
morning. We want to do you a favor and we
will break the news. I can't imagine somebody's not
going to Facebook her or something today though.
You guys says estimated value 5000.
I know it's still exciting to listen to after all these years.

(13:27):
Definitely Kevin and Bean break the news to Donna.
That's the next show, right? Yep.
I can't wait till he actually goes.
I was just thinking there weren't too many times they went
over 10:00. This was very rare.
Yeah, it's kind of exciting still to relive it.

(13:48):
Yep. Just think, in some alternate
universe beings married to Scarlett Johansson well.
They. 'D be divorced by now.
Probably. Right here's where we call
Donna. I'm going to go out on a limb
and say of the past 20 years, that's one of the probably 5

(14:09):
best Christmas songs that I think I've ever heard.
All right, in terms of new Christmas music.
And I believe it is also the story of Bean's life.
I won't be home for Christmas. Guy living in the shack behind
the back 40. Come on with the come on.
Wait, this is Jared writes. They're kind of the beans.
So Bean rips Lisa for not going to the Marine ball, but he won't

(14:31):
go to New York. The terrorists have won it.
Crossed my mind. I don't like this whole
organization any longer, the waypeople are just disappointing us
left and right. Look for people who weren't
listening. Yesterday I accidentally won an
auction. Okay, I bid on a thing because I
thought it would be funny to talk about on the radio for the
brief time that I was going to be the leader in that auction.

(14:51):
Well, it turned out a full day went by and nobody else bid, and
I ended up winning the damn thing.
So now I'm on the hook for a lotof money, $7000 but at least
your wife signed off and she says I don't mind.
I don't mind that you spent 7000hard earned dollars for she
actually that you won't attend. She's not she doesn't she we we

(15:14):
haven't she doesn't know. So so you guys said do
everything you can to make sure she doesn't find out and then we
can call it Kevin and Ralph break the news is our new bid.
I guess I think we can do it better than you.
Yes, all right, let's let's dialher up.
Let's RIP the scab off. This is going to hurt, but she
has to find out eventually. This is so sweet.
And by the way, Bean's not going.

(15:34):
That's the that's the part that's really driving me crazy.
For the benefit of the show, he's willing to make a bid,
right? But for the best of the show, he
won't go to New York and interview Scarlett Johansson and
and be there with her and bring back the story for that.
He won't do that for the show. Hang out with her.
I think that's I think that's going to help me with this
conversation. By the way, the fact that I'm
not going to hang out with Scarlett Johansson, that's not
adding insult to injury. Is that why you're not going?

(15:57):
No, it's a I'm just saying I'm lucky that it'll help me.
All right. Are we dialing?
We're trying. We're trying to teach beer mugs
what numbers look like Dave's right.
Mugs just pointed to A2. It is obviously A2.
What's that? What do you think it is?
A7 an 8? It doesn't.
I only have even numbers in my phone numbers, so that'll
that'll help you hear what Bee just said the number you've

(16:17):
read. Did you hear what Bee just said?
He only has even numbers in his phone number, Right?
Is that on purpose? Yes, it is.
Of course it is. Kevin.
You don't like odd numbers? Yeah, I don't.
Well, I have. And there's a long story.
Go ahead, dial it again 'cause we're almost out of time.
We've got the movie beat coming up.
Cousins out loud. It will take as long as I will
sacrifice movie beat gladly. Birth story.
It's the number you have reached.

(16:37):
Will you please, beer mods, Correct.
Dial the number. Hey, hold on.
Hey, Dave, dial the number on the red line so we can pick it
up in here, please. Damn it.
I'm sweet. This is working well.
I don't care. No.
Oh, who's wrong? Dave gave me the wrong number.
OK, listen to him. Fidel Castro is not happy today.

(16:58):
Beer mug doesn't look like FidelCastro.
He does. I'll get it.
What it What the heck is? That's my phone.
We're calling my house. Yes, by you.
Yes, she's. Going to pick it up downstairs.
Oh, she'll pick it up. I see.
Donna. What has she done?
Is this Donna Baxter? Hey, Donna.
Hey. It's.
CVS corporate attorneys. Nothing wrong going on here.

(17:21):
That's correct. Well, nothing wrong with the
company. There might be something wrong
with the marriage. Oh, nothing wrong.
There may be something wrong in paradise with you 2 What?
Well, here's what No, Here's what happened.
OK, no. Let me just tell you.
What? Let me just stop you because if
you guys are buying my Christmaspresent on QVC right now.

(17:43):
No, we're not. Can I?
There will be no Christmas presents purchased this year.
That's what I'm telling you. I suggest that.
What we're about to tell you. You would prefer QVC.
Yeah. All right.
So, guys, be nice. OK.
So we're not going to hurt you. It's not us.
It's beef. So Ralph comes in in the showbiz
beat and he says, hey Kevin, this is he.
Wearing that jacket. He was.

(18:03):
Yes, that's all fun again. Let's thank you.
Let's let her have her fun now. Yeah.
Enjoy. Yuck the last yuck it up, lady.
The last time she'll ever. The last time she'll ever sound
this happy. So Ralph comes in and he says,
hey, Kevin, this is just for you.
I know you love Scarlett Johansson.

(18:24):
There's a charity auction, and you can bid on it.
So that for the world premiere of the movie, we bought a zoo.
You can be Scarlett Johansson's date on the red carpet.
EW eww. And EW, like who wants?
Well, I don't know that that's aguarantee, but I certainly could
have made it happen. First of all, yeah, let's all

(18:44):
assume for the purposes of this conversation that your heads in
his high laughing. All right now.
So here's what happened. So I think so Ralph tells us how
much it is and I think you know what, that's funny and all but
and blah, blah, blah. And all the expressions are
going to charity. So I said, Kevin, you should bid
and go and spend time with Scarlett Johansson, right?

(19:05):
Awesome for Kevin, right. So then so then what happened is
is your man thought, Hey, I'm going to be funny, you know, as
he as he does and I'm going to get offline and bid on this so I
can burn Kevin. So he is.
Shell. Is he just trying to drive the
price up? No, no.
Well, yes, I don't know, basically.
I used to brag about it all day.Yeah, I think basically when I

(19:26):
went or I'm the high bidder now,high bidder and when we brought
it back up, he could say he was in the lead and it would be a
burn on me and blah, blah, blah.Well, cut to 24 hours later,
yesterday morning at 10:00 AM atthe end of the auction.
When the auction ended, your husband still had the the
winning bid. 36 hours, no one else.

(19:51):
Bid no one else outbid him. Yeah.
And then we found out that it was a movie premiere in in New
York. This is all true, but the good
the good news is, it's all true.There are tickets in a movie
premiere in New York, Scarlett Johansson and Matt Damon.
On Monday. On Monday what waiting for your

(20:14):
husband and he only had to pay $7000 for them he bid are.
You. Kidding me 7 Are you kidding me?
1000? But he's a winner.
The man who knows the differencebetween hyperbole and parable.
The man who buzzed everybody on everything because he's so

(20:36):
smart? Yeah.
Bid $7000. Yes.
Like Gates? Skanky.
Yes, Jack, yes. To a zoo movie.
Yeah, but. To a movie with animals in it,
he's. Not going to the zoo movie with
her. And I was asking if that's
because he knew you were going to be upset.
Wait, he's not. Going Nope, he's not and he's

(21:00):
not going right, That's correct.He's going so effing there,
that's what. We've been trying to convince
him of, we've been saying you doit for the show, you can get
Monday off and fly out there. He's going right?
Awesome. B.
You're going. He's in LA anyway.

(21:21):
Right. OK, so Sunday night takes the
red eye to New York, and he's there.
Exactly. That's exactly what's going.
To happen. Thank you, John.
Now, Donna, you don't. I'm going to seriously iron his
fancy shorts, right? Now you know how sometimes we
exaggerate. We are not exaggerating this
story a penny. Just. 7000 dollars, $1000 I

(21:44):
thought it. I just, I thought it would.
I thought it would be funny. Like I said, I thought it would
be funny to be able to, later inthe show, go, Oh yeah, I'm going
out with Scarlett Johansson. I'm leading that bit because in
a million years, none of us thought that nobody else would
bid on it. It was the furthest thought from
my mind that I would actually win the bid.
And it happens to be 7th. Clearly you underestimated the

(22:06):
power of Kevin, because Kevin clearly told all of America
that's true. We tried.
You eat that. We.
Tried, we all tried. That's exactly what happened.
Ralph was on every social network he could get on saying
whatever you do, don't bid on this.
No one bitch. So, so then we had this
conversation. Should I tell my wife?
And we're like, no, no, no, 'cause somebody else I tell my
hold on because $7000. Date with another woman?

(22:29):
No. I'm saying before the auction
ended, he said that and we were like, no, no, no, because
somebody will outbid you. Why go through all that once if
you're going to get outbid anyway?
It doesn't make any difference. But then no one outbid him.
So we thought we'd do him a favor and explain things to you.
Yeah. You sound pretty today, by the
way. Thank you.
You too. I remember when I met Bean 20

(22:50):
years ago and I said I'm marrying the smart one, right?
Yes. And I said.
Yes, yes, he's the smart one. What happened?
I don't a lot. He got too cocky.
Well, the good news is she doesn't sound mad as much as she
sounds. But I'm.
Not mad because you're going. Right.
I'm not going. I'm not going to go.
First of all, you're so going. Bye.

(23:12):
She, she sounds more like she feels sorry for me than she
does. And she's angry, so at least
that's good. Kevin, can I borrow your
assistant Linus please and get the other one a ticket today?
You can have one. You can have one that would be
OK. He's going.
He's. Going to be broadcasting live
with zoo animals and OK. We're out of time.

(23:35):
Great idea. Awesome.
We're out of time. I'm so happy.
I'm so happy. I'm sorry that I blew our
retirement buddy so wasn't. I had no idea what to get you
but this this is. It yeah, being got it being got
his own gift. Way to go.
Being made my whole day. I can't even.
I could not have even imagine anything more awesome than that.

(23:59):
You know what? Don is excited because she's got
being out of the house for at least one more day.
Exactly. For.
The next. 22 years you get to bethe smart one.
Thank you. OK, we we really have to go now.
Alright, Let's not get ridiculous.
Let's not get ridiculous. Yeah, I'm sorry.
I blew it. Awesome.
It's not. It's not awesome.
But thanks for not being too mad, Donna.

(24:19):
You're the best, eh? Yes, Charlotte.

really try to make him go Oh no,OK.

OK, you're the best guys. No.
Problem. Bye, Merry.
Christmas, Bye. I love you.
I love you too. Donna's the best.

(24:40):
Oh. God.
I I always. Forget how much Donna hates
Scarlett Johansson. Yeah, that's weird, right I.
Wonder. What That's from.
Yeah, I kind of wished had went,'cause when they would go to
other cities, they would do broadcast from their studios in

(25:01):
that city. He could have done a whole
thing. He could have had a broadcast in
the morning and then interview with Scarlett.
He could have totally done it and written it off zoo animals.
And all kinds of stuff. Way too much stuff.
For being in the span of three days.
All I'm saying is I would divorce me if I spent $7000 on a

(25:23):
date. That's kind of right.
And that's it for the flashback.Awesome.
Good. With the podcast.
Roundup. Let's focus on the important
thing. Titties Nailed it.
Forget it. And when you want her to.

(25:44):
Put out your podcast. We got it, say.
Hello to Happy goodbye to the Blue Janky Podcast like.
Why? I was bracing myself for it.
It's too easy being yeah, I don't have big knockers.

(26:05):
We get it all right. Welcome to the Podcast Roundup.
There might be a theme on this one, not like last week's theme,
but a different type of theme. Let's start off with the Not
Today podcast. Eddie was, as we all know, Eddie
was evacuated. He didn't talk about it too much
on the Ralph Report, but he wentinto a lot of the things that
that happened on the Not Today podcast.

(26:27):
Here's a clip where he talks about driving away from his
house and then driving back towards the fires, so I'm on.
Franklin and we're in a traffic jam.
It's literally like a scene out of Deep Impact when they're all
standing there on the side of the road going, well, it's
common and we're going to die. And I we're on, I'm in the car
not moving and everybody's trying to go South or to the
left, right, everybody's going straight or to the left and

(26:48):
there's no one going to the right.
Nobody, because that's kind of towards the fire, but there's
nobody there and no one stoppingme from going that way.
So I'm like, I gotta and I just go, right?
I just go because there's only place I can move and I just want
to get out of there as fast as Ican.
I get down to Hollywood Blvd. I keep going and I get to Laurel
Canyon to cut over the valley. At that point, I'm going to your
place because you said come hereand I'm like, just go to Jens

(27:09):
and I go over Laurel Canyon. Everyone's coming out of Laurel
Canyon because they evacuated the whole Canyon.
No one's going up. And I'm like, I hope I am not
killing my family right now, dude.
I'm hoping. I'm driving into a wall.
Of fire, but I wanted to get. I just wanted to be moving,
yeah. And so we got over the.
Canyon and it was completely clear when we get to your place,
it was. It was just basically this scene
out of a movie where he just wasstopped and the only only

(27:33):
direction he could go was towards the fire, which is, I
don't know that shit scares the fuck out of me.
And I got to say I can't imaginejust packing everything up and
then leaving. But he goes further and he talks
about some of the bright sides to to evacuating and and the
drive. Over there, Colton just loses

(27:54):
it. In the back seat.
And I'm like, I'm in my throat. I'm like fuck.
Like. How do I?
Explain to him what? How do I calm him down?
Because in his life, his whole, everything of value of his is
going to burn. Yeah, everything he loves.
And so we're just trying to tellhim no, everyone that you care
about is in this car. Everything that's important to
or safe. Yes, everything.

(28:14):
That's truly. Important to you is in this car
your mom, your dad, your dog is in this car you're you're going
to be we're going to be OK it's.Just stuff.
And at that moment it hit me is like.
I kind of realized. If I never saw any of that stuff
in my apartment again, I wouldn't care.
As long as these people and thatdog are safe, I don't care if

(28:36):
any of that stuff is gone. And in that moment?
I felt that detachment of like, of actual like belongings, and I
never had that complete detachment before.
Isn't that wild? When you hit that one crazy and
then. It even weird when we finally
got back to the the the apartment when we got back, when
we were able to come back, I look around like.
I guess I could just get. Rid of all this like I don't
need any of this stuff. Mark Mark held up a sign and it

(28:59):
says Marie Kondo fire method. Does this spark?
Joy. I hope it sparks nothing, Mark.
That was pretty. Good, pretty good comeback.
But yeah, it was yeah. Oh, man, that I don't know.
I feel for Eddie and everybody that was caught up in the fire
and and everybody that lost their houses.

(29:19):
It's it was just bonkers that whole week.
Every neighborhood seemed to be on fire.
Yeah, we, we. Have we have a cousin that was
in Altadena that their house burnt it it it literally is a
crisp. Everything around it is just
gone and you're just like wow, like never.
Could have imagined. Yeah, same here at at work.

(29:41):
There was, it was weird because when I first heard of the fire
was in Pacific Palisades and, and they told me, don't come
into work, you know, work from home.
And I was like, it's that's really far from, from my job.
I don't understand why they would do that.
And then all of a sudden you just start hearing about all
these fires just everywhere and,and Altadena's pretty close to
my, to my work. And then a couple of employees

(30:04):
there lost their houses and it just, it's incredible how crazy
and fast it all happened. All right.
But let's let's keep this going.Speaking of dog getting dressed
up, we were talking about that earlier.
Ralph has his opinion on it. You, you got to admit.
You liked the bow ties, right? I.

(30:25):
I indulged the bow ties. It's they looked.
Handsome in their bow ties, Jen likes.
To dress up the dog and I can appreciate there's a certain
cuteness factor. It's like, it's like like when
they're wearing. Their Eagles jerseys don't seem
to mind that one. Animal abuse.
It's just. I I I'm really got a problem

(30:49):
putting clothes on animals. I just feel like that's not if
they could tell us what they wanted, definitely wouldn't be.
Eagles at the bottom of the. List would be Eagles jersey put
ties and shirts on me. We can't trust their.
Opinions. They eat poop.
That's true. Hey, yeah.
That's one way to look at it. They don't make the best choices

(31:09):
as dogs, but I guess Jen alreadyanswered whether or not she
would dress her dogs, so that's a no.
Let's keep moving on. This one's kind of a longer
clip. It explains one of the clips
from the intro. Ralph brings us the first viral
star of 2025. We have our. 1st Virtual Star of

(31:31):
2025 Eddie Pastor Have you been following this story or not?
Sophia Ross, a Hooters waitress in Florida, is the latest viral
sensation of 2025. Good, good, good, good.
She was pulled over back in November, and the body Cam
footage of her DUI arrest has swept the Internet.

(31:51):
Here's a little clip from that footage.
OK, do you want to? Try this first exercise for me I
will do. Anything for you, Daddy.
God damn. All right, you in that suit.
Anything for you has. CAA signed her yet?
Not yet, Eddie. But you'll be happy to know
Sophia Ross does have big plans.Oh, does she have a podcast?

(32:14):
In the works she. Should soon, because she does
have a hero. She does have someone she is
trying to emulate. Maybe you can guess I've gotten
SO. Many comments.
Saying. You know 2025 hawk to a girl and
hawk to a walked so she could run and honestly she's a legend.

(32:37):
IA 100% look up to her. Yep, so she helps.

How has she been Haktua? Keeping up with Haktua and her

(32:58):
her downfall, I think she's totally.
Aware of what's been going on with Haktua.
Sure she won't make those mistakes.
She won't make a. Sophia Ross Hooters.
Waitress from Sarasota, FL. She's got it all going on.
She's surround. Herself with smart people savvy
is. What they?
Call her savvy Sophia. I hate the world.

(33:19):
This This is why when they said TikTok was going away I was like
it's we won't miss it. I mean people like this don't.
In fact, I missed it. I really missed.
It and it is back, even though everyone has gone to the other
one. Eliminate, but yeah, no.
The other one got shut down too though, so it's they're all back
red whatever. Oh yeah, did.

(33:40):
The red thingy, yeah. Wait, is this?
Afteraol.com that's the last oneI was on.
Prodigy. Prodigy Net CompuServe, I mean.
How many social platforms are wesupposed to be on now?
Just TikTok. You and your Chinese.
Spy need to hang out on Tiktok? I not if they're not if people

(34:06):
like this are getting famous, I'm sorry.
The hawk to a girl and then thisgirl.
This. This girl doesn't even have a
good catch phrase. This girl was a body.
Cam from a cop, I mean, and on top of that, I mean like, did
you see the rest of the clip too?
Like she started like come here,I want to make out with you.
I'm going to make out with you now.
Like she, she's my hero just forwhat the F?

(34:28):
Yeah, I I saw it. She's in her Hooters outfit.
She pretty much sexually assaulted the officer.
Almost. Yeah, just a just close go.
Great. Again.
Yeah, but I don't want her to have a podcast and a book deal
and then have a meme coin and then RIP a bunch of people off.

(34:50):
Yeah, you're. Talking about her and giving her
said platform, yeah, you know. Steve and you know the other two
people that listen to this podcast will know about her.
Now we have. Your.
It's your spawn and the zeitgeist.
The. Zeitgeist it is.
Very, very small spot. Let's go over to the Cupertina

(35:11):
chat show. Bean was giving an obit for Sam
from from Sam and Dave talking about Soul Man and you know Ali
went on an appropriate tangent. Soul.
Man, now I'm gonna blow your mind.
That you just said after the Blues Brothers in my head I went

(35:32):
oh and see Thomas Howell did themovie Soul Man the movie movie.
Soul man. Yeah, I probably used the song
in the movie, too. Yeah.
All right, I'm going to explain something here.
Holy crap I haven't thought about that movie in so long.
He pretended he was a black man to get into college.
Yes, and he did blackface and black body the whole movie.

(35:55):
He did, yes. It was a different time.
It was a very different time. What was the the Robert Downey
Junior blackface movie? The hilarious war comedy?
The one where they were all soldiers?
That one same. Deal.
I was gonna say Tom Brady was init.
Tom Cruise was in it. No, don't know.
Couldn't make the movie today, is what I'm saying.

(36:16):
There's a long history of thingsyou can't do today.
Yeah, I take it. Back about what I said about
TikTok and these young people, Imean, people were horrible at
the beginning. Soul Man, the movie.
I can't. Yeah.
Tropic Thunder. Tropic, Dylan.
Dream of Yeah, that's pretty bad.
Tom Cruise is in that film. Yes, he is.
He's the agent. Yep, Yep.

(36:39):
It's one of your favorite movies, Jen.
Yes. Simple Jack, simple it's sorry.
No, I think too, when I went to go see it, my neighbors wanted
to go see it and I was like, this movie's going to be so dumb
and and I had no idea what the movie was about.
And so we go and it was such a play on Hollywood.

(37:02):
And if he worked and lived in Hollywood, it was hilarious.
Most other people do not get it and I understand, but it was
hilarious. Yeah, I would say the whole
Robert Downey Junior character is making fun of people that are
playing because at that time, like a few years before that,
there was rumors that they wanted to cast Julia Roberts as

(37:23):
Harriet Tubman. So there was a lot of white
washing in in Hollywood. So that's basically the the
satire there. But yeah, there is nothing to
defend Soul Man. So Soul Man was.
Yeah, Soul Man was bad, bad on all levels, every level.
So Tik Tok's not so bad. It's no white.

(37:43):
Chicks, if that's what you're saying, the Wayans brothers,
they brought, the social comments, It's good, good feel.
Make it work. Terry Cruz, Fertile, Wayne and.
White Chicks. All right, well, Bean did have a
point to bringing up Sam and Dave and Soul Man, and here's
the point. OK, but here's the.
Thing about soul man? RIP Sam, who's passed away at

(38:06):
89. I think.
By the way. How do you think Sam felt with
his obit being interrupted by a soul man reference?
Just just put it out there. Keep going this ad Lib.
In the middle of Soul Man may have had a major effect on
something that came to be known on the Kevin and Bean show.

(38:26):
Listen to what I'm talking abouthere.
Play it Steve. Did that have anything to do
with me coming up with Hit It Steve?
Bean and of course he's. Referring to the great Steve
Cropper right from Booker T and the MGS.

(38:48):
The guitarist on that track Playit Steve, he says.
I've often thought. I wonder how much of that played
into where Hit It Steve came from do you think?
I mean. It could just be a coincidence,
yeah. So there you go, the origin of
Hit it Steve or. The.

(39:08):
Inspiration for Hit it Steve I. Thought it's a good little fun.
Fact. This one.
Yeah, but then Ali had to go pick her jam for this week and
pretty much end the show. And I was like I.
Can't tell if you're kidding or not?
No, I'm not. I'm not kidding.
At all. Why?
You've already brought up the movie Trolls.
Now I feel like you are a troll.I think this is some sort of an

(39:31):
art project. You just want to get everybody's
reaction. You just want people to go.
What are you thinking? Because you think it's fun.
You're burning the place down. I don't know what.
You're talking about I enjoy thesong, it makes me happy and I,
I'm not even going to say who the song is by.
People can figure it out on their own.
Maybe. No, I'll, I'll say, I'll say
after we play it who the song isby.

(39:52):
No one's going to be. Listening after we play it, Ali,
I'm telling you, I really can't.Believe how much you hate it.
It's the worst song. You've ever picked You should
have saved that song for our very last episode.
Or maybe you did. No, stop.
Clapping. This could be it that is not.
True, Sir, not true that. Is a really bad song.
That is the worst song that they've ever picked.

(40:14):
That is probably the worst song I've heard in a long time.
I It was really bad. Did you guys hear the song?
Oh. Yeah, it wasn't that bad.
Yeah, we keep on turning right? No.
Wheel. In the Sky Keep.
On turning, All right, You want me to play a little bit of it?

(40:37):
Obviously, yeah. OK here.
We go is. That what's going to happen,
sorry. Put the wrong Yoko clip.
How about this one? How?
Great is male ass. No, no, that's not it.

(40:57):
OK, it that song was better thanthis one.

(41:19):
It sounds like a. Target commercial or not even a
Target commercial. Hey, soul sister, everything is.
Wonderful. Everything is great and I'm as
free as a bird outside my windowpane.
You got a fresh new start. It's a brand new day and.

(41:45):
Being besides all of his brain injuries, he can't even get
behind this song, you know? That's that.
He's right. Yeah.
And you know, Steven Tyler also adopted a girl to travel along
state lines with her. So you got to remember that
about Steven Tyler. But we can keep going and.

(42:07):
I got lots of love to give away.It don't matter if training
nothing can phase me, I'll make.My.
Own. Sunshine, Ali said.
This was like train and yeah, yes.

(42:27):
I can see. Yeah, yeah.
I can see training is awful. Anyhow, I'll just end the
podcast roundup there. Ralph, what did you think of the
podcast roundup? Oh my God.
The end times it really is. It wasn't that bad, Ralph.
What about you, Bean? I mean, it's like.
Intentionally stepping in dog shit, right?

(42:50):
I mean what? Why would you do that bean?
Is this a? Make a wish thing that he's
doing for a kid. Like a 5 year old wrote this and
it's like oh I'm going to be dead soon.
That was actually what he was saying about that, that I make
my own sunshine song. Bean had some incredible ultra

(43:12):
burning of 1000 Suns hate for this song, the type of hate he
only really reserves for our podcast.
But you know, it was pretty amazing to hear him just go off
on that song. Lastly, Ralph, maybe maybe have
some encouraging words for me aslong as we just keep.
Making those titties big, big old titties.

(43:32):
That's right. Thanks bro Christopher.
Please and now the week the. What's?

To be listening to the Gilbert Gottfried podcast they do reruns
and Rick Deez was on the Brady Bunch Variety hour, which you
talk about the 70s being bad that move or that whole show was
a drug trip and he was on the first episode.
It's it's quite something to see.

Let's bring in Wendy to the game.
Hi there. Hey there.
Hey Wendy, here's your. Question This 1986 George

became a metaphor for awful movie.
Lindsay, I think you had. Your hand up.
I don't know. I defer to Drew.
OK. Oh, I was going to make a joke

(48:15):
and say Return of the Jedi, but no.
I thought it was Mighty Ducks until Howard the Duck.
Yeah. Spectacularly.
Bad movie. I saw that in the theater.
Oh Leah Conference. By George Lucas.
Had read the comic, which was great and I'm like, I took my
wife. I'm like, this is going to be
great, boy. She stared daggers at me all the

(48:36):
way home. You had to explain.
Why the duck had a condom in hiswallet, right?
Or there was the duck in the in the.
Bathtub with boobs? Duck boob, Yeah.
We got. We got.

legendary Mel Blanc. Daffy Duck exactly, For bonus
points, Who? Directed Porky's Duck hunt.
Chuck Jones. Oh nice.

(49:40):
Guess though, Tex Avery. That's for the animation nerds.
Tex Avery. Show Porky's Duck Hunt.
Famous duck. That was the name of the cartoon
he first appeared in. But he's been in many, many
cartoons since Daffy Duck. Daffy Duck.
Wow. I had serious doubts about you.
I was like, no way. And you nailed it.

(50:02):

weird like that? But he got to Daffy, and that's
all that matters. All right, Let's bring in

And say a few things, a few words to the folks.
Yeah. Rodney's got he can contribute
to the show. It sounds like it.
But Rodney, you got you got things you could tell the kids
at Hollywood Babylon, right. Oh, Rodney's ready for you.
Cranky. Who's going to be cranky?
Yeah, there it is. There it is.

(54:41):
Right. Who's going to be.
Are there any girls here? Yeah, there are lots of girls
that come to our touch me. I'm obviously.
Hey, we should both play stuff at the same time.
That'd be awesome. Hey, so.
Well, finally got over on Bean because Rodney was into it.
Next up, we got a Hollywood death.
A couple of celebrities died. This was January 16th.

(55:01):
One of them was Russell Johnson.He was the professor on
Gilligan's Island and he has a Kevin and Bean connection.
Oh man, it's just bad news in TVLand.
Oh, just losing star after star of some of our favorite, most
legendary sitcoms. Russell Johnson, better known as
The Professor on Gilligan's Island, passed away yesterday.

(55:25):
It's Kevin's buddy. He was.
Kevin and him used to cruise. Around together?
No. I picked him up at the airport
one time. Yeah.
And then you cruised around and we cruised for a while.
You know, when I tried to sell the car, I tried to sell it as
the professor. Mobile did not help.
Car that rode the professor. He was 89 years old, Died of
died of his natural causes at his home in Washington.

(55:48):
Dawn Wells, who played Marianne on the show, posted on Facebook.
My two favorite people are now gone.
The professor passed away this morning.
My heart is broken. No word on who the other one is.
Could it have been Gilligan? I don't know.
That's the last male member of the cast still alive and just
Ginger and Marianne. The only ones left.

(56:09):
Sad. Were you guys at Ginger and
Marianne? Did we have this conversation?
You were Ginger and Marianne Guy.
I was a Marianne Guy. Really.
Yeah. I was all about Ginger.
I can see that, too. Yeah, she was.
She was sexy. There will be ATV land Gilligan
Marathon running all day, apparently.
So check that out. You know the professor's real

(56:29):
name on the show, remember? No.
No. Roy Hinckley.
Really. Professor Roy Hinckley.
And then Dave Madden, who playedthe manager of the Partridge
Family, Reuben Kincaid. He does on that show in the 70s.
He passed away yesterday as well.
Passed away of a congestive heart failure and kidney
failure. 82 years old so. Couple of TV legends, Russell

(56:52):
Johnson and Ruben Kincaid. I didn't bring it in the clip,
but Russell Johnson lived the next island over from Bean when
he died. So Bean, always the Bean island.
Yeah, this was interesting. January 17th was the anniversary

(57:14):
of the Northridge quake. So at the beginning of the show,
they kind of talked about what happened that day from their
perspective. Lisa, you were on our.
Show. But it was before you were in
studio with us, right? Yeah, we had a build.
A building off the 110 and Wilshire Blvd.
So we're on the 20th floor and we had two phones that worked
and so we were taking turns calling in information.

(57:37):
I felt like that was. That was not a fun day for
traffic, by the way. Oh no, I.
Mean because nobody knew when. Like I remember jumping in my
car and driving to my sister's right to see if she was OK.
So I went up the 170. I had no idea that freeways had
separated and people could driveoff the edges.
I mean, that was terrifying whenyou find out whatever happened.

(57:58):
Where were you at the time? What was it?
Around 431? I guess you were up and getting
ready for work. I've been getting ready.
For work were you naked married at the time and my husband were
you naked London we were already.
Dressed. Dressed, damn it.
And I remember I was between thetwo closets trying to get shoes
and then just hanging on and going oh God, oh God, make it

(58:19):
stop, make it stop. Same thing, she says.
In sex. How excited did her husband hear
those? And the garage wouldn't.
Open and people were standing out in the halls and none of the
phones worked. And I had a car phone at the
time. And I called my parents, Yeah.
I. Called my parents in Orange
County and they didn't feel a thing.
They were sound asleep. I was like, the world is ending

(58:41):
and you didn't feel anything. And someone finally cranked it
open that gate so we could get out.
And so first thing I did was drive up to my sister's
apartment and stand outside and scream because the intercom
didn't work. And of course, she didn't hear
me. So it was that was.
A frustrating few minutes. There wasn't.
It was and. Then I drove all the way
downtown. How?
About you, the monkey. I was still at home in bed,

(59:07):
although I should, Were you? Naked, although I should have
been up. Yeah, I was.
As a matter of fact, you know what I remember?
I remember getting to my car andand starting to drive to work
and I got to an intersection where there had been a water
main broke or something, and there was also a fire.
So to my left, the water was hitting my car, I don't know,
like halfway down my car door, but I could see like the street

(59:30):
was a was a river of water coming.
But at the beginning of where the water was coming from, there
was a giant fire. Holy crap, and I thought the.
World is literally ending right now.
It did look like something out of a movie, right?
It was unbelievable. I just wanted to sit there and
look at it. And then I realized, you know,
I'm going to get swept away withthis water.

(59:50):
I maybe I should keep moving. Where were you living at the
time? Chatsworth.
Right up near Northridge. Yeah.
Oh, wow. Yeah.
Wow. And so you didn't have any
problem getting into work either.
In terms of roads or anything like that, it was all, all the
lights were out. And so it was, you know, it was
quick drive quick. Drive.

(01:00:12):
You just, you took whatever supplies you could get.
You just beat up old, old peopleand took their bread, got
yourself ATV, if I recall. That's my memory of it.
That's all I got. It is weird that we all made it
into work that day, considering the earthquake happened less
than an hour from when we went on the air at 5:30.
And were we, did we get knocked off the air?

(01:00:33):
Do you remember, Kevin, did we have some sort of problem with
the station being knocked off the air?
I don't remember that. I remember thinking we should
have gotten a medal for our coverage though.
I mean, I think we really handled it well.
Remember this was pre Internet, so it was a lot of obviously
what you could get on TV and, and, and News Radio and people
calling in. I guess we just, we had people

(01:00:53):
calling in that morning telling us where they were and what they
saw and what it was. What was going on, Sir?
What did you feel that was rolling, ma'am?
It was a rolling, Yeah. Interesting.
To look back, I was thinking that back then when something
big like that happened, Kevin and Beeman had the TV on and
they would be calling people andthat's how we got our news back

(01:01:16):
then. Just think how much it's
changed. Doc wouldn't.
Change doc wouldn't come on and start talking about stuff.
Or I remember, yeah, but he would have to call somebody.
You know, back then just called,you know, The Newsroom or or
watch the news. Nation News.
Los Angeles birds, I'm dock on the Rock.

(01:01:37):
How would dock on? The Rock seeing rubber Ducky
Drew. Nope, not going to.
Go for that. Nope.
Rubber ducky here and what now? Let's see, I.
Got one more wait, should I playone more clip?
Yeah. I.
Vote no. Oh.
OK, well. Sorry, Lisa.
Well, I think Christopher kind of wants to hear it.

(01:02:00):
Oh God. Oh.
God, make it stop. Make it stop, OK?
Lisa, that's it for today then that's Wick.
That was back to you. She.
All right, Awesome, Judge Trudy.Say goodbye, goodbye.
Bye everyone. Bye everybody.
Everything. Is wonderful.

(01:02:28):
Everything is. Great.

(01:03:00):
Sonia pulls her skirt up and she's showing her nagita.
Then she came up to me and she threw me that she didn't feel
because she hippie and Navrasso.Sonia, 33, I gave her an avrasso
and my home girl's crazy and shelikes to get poked up and she

(01:03:20):

She got five baby daddies. What in the absolute?
Oh my God. The end times it.
