(01:03):
on there, we got reamed fateAc Compley, just like Plasky, he
said. Plaski said it Beta Compley, you can put it on. That's
what he said, he did saythat guaranteed, guaranteed NBA history should be
made in a Lakers uniforms. Well, because nobody else was going to select

(01:26):
him. It's being made because you, hey, we'll go to Australia,
decided to draft someone that no otherteam had rated high enough the draft.
But Bob Myers did leak that,hey, you're gonna take my son to
the dance. No, I wasn'tplanning on it. We've I have another
date. Well if you don't,if you try to take my son of

(01:46):
the dance, he's going to Australia. Well, I wasn't planning, wasn't
going to take them to the dance. Well, just so you know everybody
knows we're gonna go to Australia.If you try, there's a lot of
interest in my son at the dance. Did he say there's a lot in
the start of that from Polinka,did he say he should? Then he
say, Kate's then you say heshould make history, like it's like he

(02:07):
could or he should or and thenlike he was like, uh, he
will next season. NBA history couldbe made, could and NBA history should
be made in a Lakers uniforms.He should happen. If it happened,
could be made, it should happenin a Laker uniform. We had Don
McLean on in the first hour andhe had mentioned, you know, likes

(02:29):
Brownie James prospect and well out ofyears, he runs, his son runs
in the same circles with these youngpeople, and by all means, by
all terms, he seems very likable. That didn't used to get your drafted,
no nor should it, or beinga hard worker. But he said
he was not a draftable player thisyear, but that he was likely not
on anyone's board inside their top fiftyeight. So we do have one thing

(02:53):
to celebrate beyond the fifty five pick. The second stop of the twenty twenty
four Petros of Money Summer Tourist Tomorrowpends us some money some ofer toar Brew,
Reaxs and Anaheim. It's one ofour favorite places to go. The
beer is cold, the food isdelicioso excellent burgers. The setting can only
be described as far out. Andwe're gonna have an airbrush guy, Magic

(03:19):
airbrush, m Agik airbrush. Youcould probably ask him that's why he's always
late, Like Magic's tweet Twitter,how about getting a nice like one of
those old timey photos that are makingthe rounds on Twitter right now of Lebron
and Bronni. Oh, he waslike two years old and he's his little
son. Hey, you're in Clevelandteammates and Lebron's a free agent and owns

(03:40):
a production company in LA and runslike three shows that were someone else's ID
in LA. Yeah, maybe goahead and drave Bronni try to get him
to stay in Cleveland in LA.Seems like he's probably not going anywhere if
you don't draft brew Reacts tomorrow.We're gonna be there whether you draft us
or not. Yeah, but he'snot contracted. Sign up to be a

(04:00):
finalist for our eleven thousand dollars ToyotaCash giveaway. We got prizes on site
Westinghouse fifty inch HDTV brie X giftcards that you can use that day.
Dodger tickets one hundred dollars Superior Grocergift card because who doesn't need groceries at
a two night's day at one ofthe sweet MGM destinations and loves that trip.

(04:23):
An MGM resorts to Night's Day aTV Dodger July fourth tickets at Dodger
stadium, and that's just the instantwinners, not to mention a shot for
eleven thousand bucks. But you knowwhat, those are all material goods.
What we're really selling you, whatwe're really pitching, is a life experience,
a bonding experience with like minded individualsthat just want to get together for

(04:45):
three hours and have a great time. It is about the community of great
sports Todds if exactly great sports talk, which is why we don't worry about
that much anymore. And try toget George Clooney to show up good.
I've tried, because we are innow, Costner Jackson Brown. We've tried
and we failed. All right,that's time for the word of the day.

(05:09):
Today's word of the day. Theword of the day. He's a
word of the day is nepotism,because we all why why today? Well,
nepotism happens in the front office whenan owner's son works as a scout
like con and Jacksonville, or thecoaching staff where Don Nelson and Bernie Bickerstaff

(05:32):
have stashed their sons on the staff. Happens all the time. College football
notorious for the head coach to hirehis son as a tight end coach or
something like that. John Robinson andPete Carroll did it at USC Belichick hired
his son at New England, Belichickstill there, and well now he's in
Washington. He's the dea coordinator atWashington for Jed Fish. And who's the

(05:53):
offensive coordinator, Brennan Carroll for JedFish. So belichickism double and those guys
are there with Jed the Fish.But the field of play, the court
of play should be sacred. Freeagent fine, but somebody should have told

(06:15):
the kid to stay in college,and that someone should have been his dad.
Now, maybe they'll place him onthe injured list next season and say
that he needs a chest cavity replacementor something, and they could kick the
can down the road. But Lebronwants to play with his son and they
want to make history. So nowthe season's not about winning. The season's
not it's about history should be madein a Laker uniform. And the hell

(06:38):
is the matter with you? Nobodyeven relates to this guy in LA.
He doesn't belong to us. Well, he went to that Blaze Pizza when
they signed him and gave out allthe free pizza. And we should be
doing our show there today we shouldbe out there at Blaze Pizza cooking ourselves
and be like, you see whatyou get nailed by the king and no
pizza. Never showed up, Nofree pizza. And that is essentially that

(07:00):
that moment, the first supposed publicinteraction with Lebron James and the people of
Los Angeles has encapsulated his stay here. He has taken advantage of us.
He got a butt ton of peopleto go out to the Culver City Blaze
Pizza, buy a bunch of pizzas, wait for him to show up.
Never did all hat no cattle,that's right, And take your bubble championship

(07:24):
to Main Street and fifty Land andbuy a twenty five dollars corn dog.
What that was the loudest doorbell ever? Well, it's an important day,
it is. Yes, there's amember of the local media. Guys,
I have to read this door.They've all sent out there special like here's
a picture of Lebron and Browny mcminnimonhas the one. This is a this
is a news media, I meanhard news. Well is it? Alex

(07:48):
Lebron James is not only the onlythe best players in NBA history, but
also one of the savviest behind thescenes operators ever. He's playing chess when
the others are playing checkers. Pulledit off his son playing with them for
the Lakers with his podcast co hostcoaching, Alex Michaelson. Alex, that's

(08:09):
right, kiss, ass, Alex, go shove your head back up.
Gavin Newsom's ass, Alex, Idon't want to look at your face.
He's not playing chess. He's notplaying chess. What's happening. He is
playing Banana Republic dictator. Yeah,he's playing basketball while the other kids are
coloring outside the lines with crayons.He's playing fascist trueel Dominican Republic politics.

(08:33):
He's run rough shot over one ofthe great franchises in our city's history.
And they've allowed it, and theyhave allowed it. They've allowed it.
Yes, it wasn't a trojan horsebecause he showed up with all the weapons
to overtake them, and they werelike, yeah, come on in,
we are now your subjects king.You have to hide what you're doing.
We'll let you do it. Inplaying sight, it's a disaster. It's

(08:56):
not. At least we don't haveto polish the turd. Yeah, you
know, all these other people it'stheir job to polish the turn. And
then these guys like Elex and stuff, they just think they just think that
it's cool because they don't know anythingabout it, or if they do,
they don't care. Either they don'tknow, don't show, or just don't
care about what's going on in thehood with the Lakers. They don't care

(09:18):
that it's been desecrated. One's prominent, proud brand has been desecrated, destroyed.
It's a subject, a subject ofone individual who has remade it in
not his image, but the imagethat he has chosen. It's grotesque,
it is it's should not care.I didn't know I was going to really

(09:39):
should not care. It's not thatbig of a deal. I didn't know
I was going to feel so insultedwhen the name was said, And it
was never felt so insultant in mylife. It was the shot of the
in the it congratulatory ringing up thephone with lebron and Bronny and hugging each
other and high fiving as though theyhave just accomplished something great, what they

(10:00):
did after drafting Dalton connect and theyshould have done that. Holy crap.
Can you believe this guy slid toseventeen, he's twenty three. He's a
pro. He's the SEC player ofthe year. He lit up the NCAA
tournament. He's going to be ableto play right away. Help us spread
the floor. This is awesome.High five Huck. Can't believe he's slid
doing it for a guy that wasn'tgoing to get drafted unless you took him.

(10:22):
It just seemed really gross. Iwant to go back and watch that
video and dissect it. I feellike it can be as a pre film
and see like, was Joey orJesse Buss slow to get up? Like
did anybody roll their eyes? KurtRambis is not a guy that suffers fools?
Are you kidding? Did he?I mean think about what he does
now? Yeah, fair point.His whole life is suffering fools. And

(10:46):
that's said just sad. So isBrowny wearing number zero? Because every picture
that they have out there he's wearingnumbers is Howdy Wards zero Canyon. I
have no clue is that he Wardseb I've been Bronni? Yeah yeah,
Kate, you owe me a sandwich? You get sandwiches, by the way,

(11:07):
is it just me? No?What about Ronnie? Ronnie was out
he he didn't throw his beret orhis castro hat in the ring. Bronny
was number six at USC but okay, and what was he at Sierra Kenya?
He was number zero? Oh thereyou go. Yeah, when things

(11:28):
are really going well for him,we're gonna forget about SC. That's why
he's not wearing sicks. We don'twant to call attention. Things didn't go
that well at Hierra Canyon. Holdyour tongue. Guy was a McDonald's All
American. He was second team AllLead. He was a McDonald's All American.
Let's HARKing back to the time.That is funny that they put him
in zero because they don't want tocall attention to the number sixty ward SC

(11:50):
because he averaged four points per gameon twenty seven percent shooting. They didn't
use him correctly. Now he's goingto be a much better pro number the
day. Here's my number number ofthe day. I did this number of
the day before the Brownny thing.Well, Matt, you know, I
mean, it's good to have thespice alive. You know, we're gonna
do an F one report. We'regonna have a dead and alive. We'll

(12:13):
have some local knowledge later you know, I was stopped in my tracks.
Yesterday Preston had a show up atSaint Rock and Hermosa. It was wonderful,
beautiful. Appreciate those people, theyalways reach out and like having her
up on the Songwriter's Night. Lastnight was a youth songwriters night, So
great to see all the young talentcoming out on youth. But I was

(12:33):
talking to some parents who have collegeaged children, in particular two that had
graduated and or getting ready to goto school, and when they shared with
me what school costs right now,college, Yeah, it was a real
It wasn't a punch to the Itwasn't a kick to the balls like Brownie
Selection at fifty five was a kickto the balls. It's a real punch

(12:54):
to them. I'm looking at you, thinking about you in your future.
Oh, don't worry, my kidsare idiots. Uh one parent. One
parents. I'm spending I'm spending mykids college tuition on therapy. Now yeah,
so uh one parenting. There's twowords at my house. Trade school.

(13:15):
Yeah, you're gonna learn breaks,You're gonna go to welding school.
Airbrush. One parent is sending theirchild to Pepperdine, my alma mater.
Yes, ninety dollars a year,sure at nine zero, Yeah, not
nineteen. Now, I'm gonna stayfor an extra year. Make it half
cost a cool half million for myeducation. I'm gonna come out of here

(13:39):
saying a bunch of words that nobodycan understand that my professor made up ninety
grand to go to Pepperdine. Thethe other one's child. My major is
indigenous marginalism and minor and creative drummingand getting in minor in uh Latin American.
I'm gonna be an hr person onlyfor the fat disabled people. The

(14:05):
other one's child is going to Chapman. Oh yeah, eighty seven hundred those
are I mean to be fair withall due respect to Pepperdine, which is
a great university and matt for Inmy time at USC, the admissions was
just a pulse and your parents paycheck. Now. I was there for athletics,

(14:26):
of course, you know, butus he changed as an academic institution
from you know when my time there. We're going to be more selective and
we're going to triple our tuition.Steven Sample did a really good job,
actually, but I mean you justdescribed schools where it's like you know,
my kid's not going to go toYale, but I want them to go

(14:48):
to a really nice place, andI want them to be protected. Chapman
Chapman with a great TV and radioprogram and the dying. Certainly they really
do fit that bill, and soyou pay place. I do you know
the JC that used to be bymy house, Marymount College? That UCLA,
Right, it was a JC.That's what Joey Buss went there.

(15:11):
Actually it was a JC. Helpedhim guide him to the decision to draft
Ronnie at fifty five to this moment, Yes, it was a JC,
and then they became a four yearreally quick, and then UCLA bought it
and now who knows what they're goingto do with it. They're doing something
with it. And uh, thatwas sixty thousand dollars a year. It
was a JC. Why because mykid is a is an f up a

(15:33):
little bit, did not do greatin high school. I can't send them
to al Camino because they'll develop anasty meth or heroin habit. I can't
send them to Harbor College because theyyou know there, might end up with
some crazy Ruka. Okay, wherecan I hide my kid? Here?
On the cliffs of Ranch and PalaceVerdes. That's where I'll hide them for
two years and then they will befed like a penguin regurgitating its food to

(15:56):
a baby to Lmu, where theywill be delivered by the year. Yes,
they'll be delivered by the Jesuits intothe marshlands of education. So I
see you, uh you graduating,Pepper Dunt. Yeah, what are you
doing now? I'm a nanny,is that right? Yeah? Very prominent

(16:18):
Beverly Hills family. Right, well, it's a big family. Actually,
technically I'm an no pair. Technicallyreally, I'm more of a personal assistant.
It's going to lead to an executivejob. Well, and I guess
the real question is like if yougo to college to spend ninety grand a
year and you're like a communications majorlyand they're telling you something that you could
have read, or they're telling yousome BS stuff that's about some philosophical idea

(16:42):
of something like you better go andlearn to build a robot arm. You
know if that if you're going tocollege, you're gonna pay that much money.
You better because I didn't come outof college. I came out of
college and be like, here's whatthis James Joyce. A short story means
all right, like I had nodiscernible skill, I'll like these your quarter
ray coat with love, sir.Let me tell you something. Shakespeare is

(17:03):
pretty body in his time. Iwill. I'll save you a bench in
the park where you can play chess. Exactly, you know. I mean,
you better come out of college beinglike, hey, let me tell
you something. I know how tomove this hedge fund money over to this
hedge fund and kick all the WallStreet protester people in the balls, exactly
like, you better be able todo that. I've never felt so good
about half cutting my retirement considerably.So Peyton could go where she went and

(17:30):
get a degree from that institution forless money than it will cost you to
graduate Pepperdine. Now that is insane. I mean, if you just want
to go to have dorm sex,it ain't worth a hundred thousands. No,
No, because you could have sexall kinds of playces cal State Northridge,
and dorm sex is super overrated,is it. Well, you've got

(17:52):
that six' ten basketball player thatlives that sleeps next to you. Yeah,
and his strokes are so long it'slike on the other side of the
sounds like a shorter My hip thrustis going to be a shorter hip thrust.

(18:12):
And then you can hear the snickersat your window, shop shop shop.
Yeah, he's playing seal the beginningthe track his motion. What Rodny.

Congratulations. What a great moment forthe James family after doing so much

(20:07):
for the city of Los Angeles.Love the city that does the Jameses.
Oh, think of all the positivesthat they have shared with the city they
have called home for seven years.The movement from one basketball program to the
next, the travel teams, thewell they had that come out. I

(20:30):
got the whole Beverly Hills police thingwhen he was still in Brentwood, or
the yeah, the police situation.I never followed up on that. No,
no, and well they cleaned itoff. They didn't want the bron
to see it. Now that's aboutit, Kate's she's done for the city.
Kate's do you want to give yourKelly Stafford update? Now? I
know you're very excited about it.Kelly Stafford has told the people what she

(20:53):
thinks about, telling everybody on CaitlinBristow's podcast that she dated the backup quarterback
to make Matt Stafford jealous and gethim to make her the cheerleader quarterback power
Ranger couple that Stafford and Kelly became. I believe her real name was Kelly

(21:18):
Hall before they got married. Youwant me to give the update Kelly Hall?
Y'all? Yeah? What does KellyStafford say? I'm assuming that this
is all our fault. It's notthat she can't. I mean, she's
constantly having to say stuff and apologizedeverybody. This is whose fault? Her
Instagram post twenty four hours ago,saying that it wasn't that guy Joe Cox

(21:40):
right. Well, people have beengetting after her. It was brought ber
Lynn NonStop to beginning after her andon a photo she posted on her Instagram,
it's a picture of her and Mattstaff her a Stapleton concert last night.
Somebody took it from behind because theygot their arms wrapped about each other,
and she wrote, realizing how manyinsecure men that are out there,

(22:03):
so grateful I'm married the complete opposite. Okay, no, that's good.
Let's get Stafford. Let's yeah,hashtag joy of my life. Yeah,
let's get Stafford to do a podcastand talk about all the Kappa kapagamas that
he ran through when he was atGeorgia. To make Kelly Haul jealous by
the way, she turned off commentson the post so people could not respond

(22:23):
to that. Well, I'm commentingon the radio, Kelly. I'm commenting
right now. Whatever, Pete,I'm in your room. Raleigh back out.
I'm in your room. You backout. You and Frank don't have
your show anymore. She didn't care. I'm commenting right now, Sam what
I want to say right now?Kelly, you're just one of those insecure
men. No, you're suggesting itwas bad decorum. That's all when you

(22:48):
have four kids and your wife goesand says, I manipulated the hell out
of the relationship in college because I'ma creepy cheerleader and he was a high
valued quarterback, so I dated thebackup to make him. It's creepy.
It's got nothing to do with insecureman. It has something to do with
you being an idiot. Every timeyou open your mouth your brain falls out.
My god, I feel bad forthis man. This this is wrong.

(23:14):
This is I got some text foryou, Matt here. The secret
text doesn't line brought to you byyour so called Toyota dealers. You know,
we make it easy. Summer toursponsored. Barry from Barry's Tickets is
going to join us next to talkabout the ticket implication of Bronnie James making
history at State. I wonder ifhe has cornered the market on South Bay
Laker tickets. Oh, that iswhere Bronnie is going to be playing the

(23:37):
majority of his games. That wouldbe a wise investment. And I love
Barry and so do you. Andwe had a long relationship with Barry.
But prepare for Barry to be insufferable. I guess that makes sense. He
he wants Brownie the Active Rocks starfYes, he wants he wants Bronnie to
be on the active. If you'rea ticket salesman, you're a star effort.

(23:57):
You have to be. Yeah,I mean you're not you're not that
excited goes with the business. Yeah, you're not that excited about you know,
surf curse at the knitting factory.Oh you know, well you can
be, but you know, publicly, man, Nepo baby got the City
on fire. I hope he doesplay so he gets exposed as the college
benchwarmer. He is hashtag Jaden Smithlevel that Jayden disappeared after being We called

(24:23):
out Jaden Smith too, and wegot pushed back from Will Smith. That's
a true story. Before he slappedChris Rock, he tried to slap us.
Jaden's still doing movies and TV shows. And the dresses like Batman,
like a very stylish Batman. FRonnie celebrating Brownie. I got a few

(24:44):
texts like that they didn't like Ronnie. They didn't like Ronnie's thing in the
song of the day celebrating Brownie.I have very polarizing top. It runs
show rides itself today, and theshow rides itself. It's like Rich Paul
insisted on the Laker front office quoteunquote celebrating from the war room camp to
make the whole scam complete. Listen, guys, what I want you to
do when I hang up this phone? Wag the dog. I want high

(25:07):
five mile hugs, shake hands.I want applause. I want massive smiles.
Did I mention massive smiles? Wait? Magic already tweeted about this.
Doesn't he know he's supposed to waita day. Yesterday's news. Great call
tomorrow, great call. Pee.We've had this drafting thing wrong for years.

(25:34):
We were drafting people based on theirtalent. Who knew that the secret
to success drafting people based on howsmart they were and how much effort they
put in. Shame on us forshame. He's smart and he puts a
lot of effort in and he's agreat kid. And that's what we look
for when we draft players. Isit because I thought you looked for positive

(25:56):
wingspan? Corey ham As Lucas wasdraft afted right after Brownie James. He
was not afraid. No, hereturned that, returned that button and got
his head. His head was knockedin the caved in. But that's the
kind of guy we want to draft. Luka Plakia the Lakers. If the
Lakers and rob want to make history, they should have used the pick to

(26:17):
select air Bud Oh batsketball playing goldenRetriever. I didn't see that coming.
I was expecting Caitlin Clark or somethinglike that, and then it was Airbud.
Well done, sir, Thank you, thank you, thank you both
for saying what needs to be said. I am beyond embarrassed, and we

(26:42):
shouldn't again, we shouldn't be It'sthe I get it. It's the fifty
fifth pick. It's they're only fiftyeight picks. Is it really that big
of a deal. It's the execution. It's the end of animal farm,
Matt, Yes, it is.It's that who's a pig and who's a
man? Ramona and freaking in Ireland? Exactly right? And uh and Bob

(27:02):
Myers, who's a pig and who'sa man? I can't tell anymore long
you're supposed to to believe the evidenceof my eyes and ears. There was
a wolfman, there was a rhino. I can't tell it differently, number
of different animals out there. Listenersthat support the Lakers, are there any
left? No one to feel sorryfor? Left? Even the suckers buying

(27:25):
season tickets aren't there for basketball.And it kind of starts to make you
feel that way, like we're gonnamake history, Okay? Is that make
history by winning another championship and tyingthe Celtics again, that's how you make
history, Idiots. There have alwaysbeen celebrities court side. I get that.
But and we discussed this from Rockand Bruce the Denzel, Glenn Frye,

(27:49):
Diane Cannon, Jack Nicholson. Theywere dedicated Laker fans right flee every
game. They were there for twelvewin Memphis in April for those games.
Now, these are not basketball people. These are Instagram and TikTok models that

(28:10):
want to update their feed. MookieBets selling has sold to Hollywood with Chris
Jenner. That's what it is.Yes, it's gross. Please explain to
Vic. The owners and players ofevery team in the league are laughing and
high fiving for all the free prand marketing they just got from simply allowing
the Lakers to pick this hot messfor them. Oh, the Austin Toros,

(28:36):
they are going much like when CaitlinClark comes to town, they move
to the men's arena from their practicefacility for their games. When Bronnie James
comes to your gee, when theRed Claws get Bronnie James intown, when
the mad Ants get Bronnie James intownand Tarot Hoape, I mean that town
is gonna go nuts. We'll beback with Barry from Barry's Tickets. Who

(28:59):
will feel differently. You think theymoved to G League games to like the
JV game before the Lakers G Leaguegames are moving to the La Colisseum.
Wow. I think right now they'rein their practice facility with like fifteen hundred
seats. They're moving to the LaColisseum or at least maybe the Pyramid in
Long Beach. I think Bunk BnkoPopolar, Oh, right next to the
coliseum. Yeah, what is thatone called Bemo Bemo Stadium outdoors? Yeah,

(29:22):
pill the court in middle of Brownieshoots the three's best with the wind
because you know he's on the That'show he's used to shooting in the driveway
with Lebron. That's where he didhis hard work to earn this, to
earn this moment. He earned this. That's right. He worked for this.
We're working for the week. I'man adult. Now I'm making a

(29:45):
living. I'm a man. Lookat me, exactly right. So Barry's

ninety one Freeway at glassl thirty oneninety one East La Palma is where we'll
be broadcasting from a host of prizeswill be given away on site and you
could qualify as our second finalist towin eleven thousand dollars cash at our final
stop. One of our favorite guysis a sponsor of this year's Petros and

(30:36):
Money Summer Tour from Barry from Barry'sTickets, and he's one of our favorite
interviews as well. You know,if you need tickets around town, there's
only one Barry. He'll put thebond in your squirt. That's exactly right.
Barry's Tickets dot Com on the SokotoyotaDealers Celebrity Hotline. Big news about
Brownie and a big boxing event thatBerries into as well. What's cracking Berry?

(30:57):
How are you? Everything is great? You know, I'm happy for
Bronnie. He went through a lot. He worked really hard. And I
want to tell you guys. Youguys know Albert Hall who runs the Summer
Pro Basketball League, him and Warrens. Yeah sure, yeah, okay,
So Albert told me a week beforethe draft where we picked Lums the ball

(31:22):
that Tatum was the best player inthe draft, hands down, He's the
beast. Quote. So that's whenI gained a lot. I mean I
always respected Albert, but he knowshe sees them. He sees them in
every workout. He gets to seeeverything. So he went to the combine.
He said Brownie was the second bestplayer that he saw at the combine
and he absolutely deserves to be towardsthe top of the second round, if

(31:45):
not the back of the first round, based on what he saw. Now,
usc, you know, the guydidn't have a whole summer to get
ready. The coach checked out early. He I mean, as you know,
he left for a Texas school.I can't remember which one, but
it's that private Texas MU, YesSMU. And then he was behind two

(32:07):
really good guards, you know,so he didn't really get a proper chance,
and he wasn't one hundred percent.I'm telling you one hundred percent.
Lebron will be better than the fiftysix to sixtieth pick that that they could
have taken instead of him. Hewill be better than it was a good
pick. Well, you heard fromBarry. Not everybody feels the same.

(32:29):
Barry and a lot of people feelas if a lot they're being taken advantage
of. But I'm sure this meansI'm sure this means interest in money as
far as your business goes. Doyou think, Bronnie James, I mean,
G League style, can you cornerthe market on the South Bay Lakers?
Dan you, I don't think Iprobably could. Let's do it.
I don't think that's going to doit. I think it's the summer Pro

(32:52):
League on Friday, he's they're playingat four thirty. You got those?
Do you have those? Yeah?Look at it. We have the GA,
the reserved, and we have acouple of floors. So if you
that's gonna be exciting. You alsohave the kid that they just got.

(33:14):
He's a way better player than Bronnie. Oh, there's no question. He
should have been a top ten everybodysays, and he's what they needed.
But what else we're going to getwith the fiftie fifth pick. I think
it was a good pick, andI think I think Bronnie will work hard.
He's fundamentally sound, he can doall. He did great in all

(33:35):
the drills and in the game.Again, my friend said, who I
respect? Sure he was the secondbest player on the court, even though
he didn't make a shot. Barry, I want to ask you this because
I legitimately believe, like, canyou corner the market on the South Bay
Laker tickets? I think people aregoing to go like, can you find
when they're going on the road,and you know what, that will be
my next call there we go seeif we can when I think people will

(33:58):
be curious. He's going he's goingto play in the G League all year.
He's not going to be on thefloor like I would get road tickets
to like the Austin Toros and theTara Hate mad Ants and like buy those.
I think I'm smart. Now youshould have called me offline on that
one. Is No nobody listens tothe show Berry. They all we've been

(34:20):
doing is bagging on Brownnie for thelast two hours. Everybody hates it.
We feel differently about the pick.But the great Berry Berry's tickets, he
knows what's going on. He's anice kid. Well there, I feel
great about it. But I'm sayingthis isn't like a spoiled bread. It
doesn't work hard, and doesn't heputs the work in good and a lot
of guys who I know think thathe is good enough. Now again,

(34:44):
he's young. We'll see. Itmight take a couple of years. He
might be in the Sea League onthe whole years. Get him now,
hang up with us right now?Okay, well not yet, not yet.
Let's talk about the biggest event tohit La for boxing as long as
I can remember. Now, Iremember they do some boxing events at at

(35:05):
of course Crypto, and I rememberthere's some pretty good fights down at the
little tennis thing that they have athome depot or whatever. I saw Ryan
Garcia early on fight there. Yes, it's not it's not Terrence Bud Crawford
versus Madermov it's not. Yeah,and he got name some other fights because
I'm going blank. And Cruz isfighting and he's one of the top Mexican

(35:30):
fighters. Jose Malinzuela, okay,and who's the heavyweight who he knocked?
Somebody he knocked and Junior against Jerellthat looks like a melting ice cream cone
Ruiz. He lost some weight,he lost some weight and he'll be in
shape for this fight. But threeof the fights at least are for belts.

(35:53):
And Crawford's probably the best fighter inthe world. And there's a little
guy, you know, a guywho from eight mile Eminem has the number
one song out right now and he'sperforming at that. So that's a big
event you're gonna have. I thinkit's gonna be nine or ten fights.
There's gonna be six on TV,big fights, all good fights. So

(36:15):
and there's another heavyweight on there onthe card who's again escaped me who they
think is the next No, nottime you listen, not him, not
Frasier, not Jerry Cooney. Yeahthat's true, but there is. It's

(36:38):
gonna be a great card. Everybodyshould look for it. There's gonna be
a huge advertising campaign, so youhear it all. But also when's the
last time you had a chance tosee Eminem? And Eminem's got the top
album right now, he's back.I love Eminem. Soeminem Championship Boxing,
you love it. An affordable andit's an affordable event too. It's it's

(37:00):
probably other than the first five rowson the floor, which aren't even available
yet. Every I would say it'sabout a third forty the cost of it
if you went to a similar fightin Vegas. Wow, it's a real
value play and it's a beautiful building. Bemo is a beautiful place to do
anything. It's August third at Augustthird, yep, and it's Cross versus

(37:23):
Madramov on August third. Okay,listen, Petros. Can we get you
guys to come up for the SummerPro League for the Friday July twelfth.
It's possible in Vegas. I'll havea ticket for all tickets in Vegas?
Is actually that? Is it reallyin Vegas? Yeah? Till twelfth Summer
Pro League? Okay, four pointthirty. You'll see Brownie play for the

(37:45):
first time. You'll see Control fourand I don't. I'm hoping that the
Fino's gonna healthy. And I connectyou, I connect for Can we go
uh control for as the operating systemin my house? Can we go see
the Can we go see the deadat the sphere after? Yeah? If
they're there that night? Are theythere that night? They are? They

(38:07):

I got Mountain. We'll see what'sgoing on, Barry done. I got
to ask you into it though.Is there are people excited to get over
there? Have you been over therefor a tour? It looks like they
did a pretty good job. I'mgoing I'm Gillian Is invited our whole YPO

(38:28):
chapter and lots and lots of peoplefor July twentieth, and we're all going
to go and see it then andtest everything out. It's going to be
there, but I've heard it's goingto be the nicest, best building in
the world. And when when peoplecompliment Gillian, she says, look,
I had I had the best resourcesat my disposal, and they're going to

(38:50):
have more pizza ovens than any building. They're gonna I mean, it's you're
not gonna it's gonna be ticket cardless. You don't need money. You could
order from your seat and they'll bringit to you. You walk into the
places, kind of like when yougo into an Amazon and you walk out,
goes on your cart and you walkout. Pretty awesome. Not gonna

(39:10):
be lined, There's be more bathroomsthan anywhere else. It's gonna be good
parking. They even are going tohave the you know how like sometimes it's
hard to get in and out ofsofa. They're gonna they're they're actually gonna
have the lights coordinated from when thegames start and when the games end,
so that traffic should flow better.They've thought of everything. I can't wait

(39:32):
to get you know, I'm I'mI'm hoping the Clippers can step up.
But I have a real strong feelingthe Lakers are going to do something even
more than what they've done and getbetter if Vanderbilt, if Vanderbilt was healthy,
it would have made a difference.And I think Reddit coaching is gonna

(39:53):
I think he's gonna be great.It's a really smart guy. You gotta
get him out of your cigar club, Barry. He should deliver, you
know what I mean? You guysgot to chop it up with what you
know what. Petroush will come.I'll go. I don't know. If
you can get ready to smoke withyou, we might be able to.
I'm going to give it a go. He was cool when he was with
the Clippers, when I would goon trips and stuff, He's pretty cool.

(40:14):
Yeah. Great, you know whatI'm going to have to call.
I'm going to have to call Rob. I don't yeah, I will do
that. Listen. I don't knowif you'll listen, but we will get
Reddick to six. But more importantly, when are you coming back? You
not me? Where am I supposedto to star? Club. Just tell
