And don't forget, Brewery Acts is where we're going to

away from Colvina, so we know Brewery Acts. We don't
a great place to be with our listeners. So we

Reacts in Anaheim. Mets are in town to take on
the Angels. You mailbox head types can come to the
(02:11):
metsa making a comeback. You watch Mike Trout is nowhere
close happy, Matt Harvey day starting to get the feeling
that Mike Trout doesn't want to play, and Matt Harvey
had plants. It's ninety eight really, it's time of the
fun huh final our fun fact?
Speaker 2 (02:29):
Man, what's fun effect? It's the yeah we're three.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
Fun fun fact, like an erection. The Eiffel Tower in
Paris grows up the six inches in the summer, nice
temperatures go as high as forty degrees Selsea.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
You know, young man's fancy turns to a certain thing
in the springtime and.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
Get a little warmth next, so you know it's growing.
Like any plant, the base of the metal expands, increasing
the structure's height. They did account for this when they
constructed the Eiffel Tower. The tip also tilts by several inches.
So if you got a pre prism, a priapism, Matt, yes, uh,
(03:11):
when exposed to extreme summer heat, that is what happens
to the eye of phallic symbol'een.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Four hours of that. You got to call the doctors.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Too many phils. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
They're bringing that big cow from the opening ceremony to
bring your boner down.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
That's done it.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Here's a bearded guy with huge Madonna boobs to bring
your boner down, sir, I appreciated.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Doctor. I'm good. I'm just gonna write this thing on
even if it's there for two more days.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Gosh, that's a far cry from RAYFERH. Johnson, isn't it.
It's time for quick hits, everybody, quick hits.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Come make it quick, y'all.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Oh yeah, Kate's with Dodger Talk the latest from seven
to eight. Dodgers are off tonight, six and a half
game lead in the n L west of the Podres,
who they face the next couple days in San Diego.
Dodgers are one and two, one and two on their
eight game road trips so far, going back to the
(04:13):
All Star Break. They kind of blew it in Houston
on Saturday. The Dodgers only blewid bullpen going back. They're
only three and nine away from Dodger Stadium in their
last twelve.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
They're playing like crap. Bullpen is crap. That Rubleski kid
deserves better. So the second time the bullpen has absolutely
screwed them. Stay in there, Vesia, Hey leave them in, Doc,
leave the kid in.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
On the road with the Dodgers has brought to you
by Valveeline Instant Oil Change. Before you hit the road,
be sure to stop by your nearest Valvelen Instant Oil
Change home of the fifteen minute Oil Change. There was
a trade today, Matt.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
Yes, we've discussed it extensively. We've had everybody and John
Paul Morosi will break it down yet again after this segment.
It is a three team, eight player trade. The Dodgers
received utility player Tommy Edmund. He had a broken wrist
and then surgery. He has yet to play in a game.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Rist.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
They got right handed reliever while converted reliever he was
a starter, couldn't cut it, Michael Kopek and a seventeen
year old Panamanian right hander from the Cardinals organization, Oliver Gonzalez,
who had just signed this past winner. The Cardinals get
Eric Fetti and Tommy fam the object of Dave's desire
(05:29):
who could have been acquired by the Dodgers, but instead
they got this Edmund guy. White Sox get Miguel Vargas,
which is BS and Matt.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Had to follow Miguel Vargas to the station with his
suitcase in his hand.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
Let me carry it for you to go. One last
appreciation for you.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Here you go hard. It's hard to tell when all
your love is in vain.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Have a safe trip to the South Side McGill and
show your time out there. I'm gonna miss you a
couple of prospects too, Oh, Albertus and Petties from the Uners,
Guys that we really liked and we're looking forward to
seeing with the big league club.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
We're going to miss Gonzales and Petas for sure. Deltos well,
and the Dodgers did make another trade. They bring in
a guy they had last year, this time from the Rays.
Last year they brought him from the Guardians. Ahmed Rosario
shortstop coming back to the Dodgers for minor leaguer and
Ryan Yarborough designated for assignment.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Yeah, he's having a great year pe hitting three oh seven,
two doggers, twenty six rabies, nine stolen bases. Played pretty
well in spurts for the Dodgers when they acquired him
last year from the Guardian. So probably try to get
a repeat of that as all of their injuries continue
to drag on a little bit longer than they anticipated.
Speaker 5 (06:38):
Yeah, guys, just to add a little bit more to
that again, Ryan Yarborough being designated for assignment means they
Dodgers have time now to maybe work out a deal.
So we could see Ryan Yarborough involved in a trade
since he's been designated for assignment. There's got to be
a team that's out there looking for a left handed
pitcher with a sub four erra that could give you
multiple innings every couple of days. For the Dodgers, though,
(06:59):
the starting to get healthy and we're going to see
some of these arms like Bruce Dark, Graderol and Michael
Grove returned to this Dodgers' bullpen, and now you add
Michael Kopek in. There just too many bodies in the
Dodgers' bullpen. And this is a good thing. The Dodgers
are getting healthy, starting to get these arms back. Rookie
Betts is down the road, and you mentioned Matt. The
injuries are forced them to make these trades. But again
(07:19):
keep in mind, these guys are all going to come
back from injuries, we hope at some point this season.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
So the Dodgers may not be.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
Done quite yet.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
That's great information.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
So it got the.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
Deadline tomorrow three pm. But I know some other stuff
happened today.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
Our old friend Justin Turner was dealt from the Blue
Jays to the Mariners. Yeah, mood shut back to the
West Coast, Moonshine not making the trip. Matt still buried
in the concrete in Burbank or a studio city.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
I thought it was going to be like a customs thing,
you know, going from Toronto.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
I believe system Pavers did the beautiful grave and then
JT hasn't played a game at Dodger Stadium since Game two.
The twenty twenty two Nlds and the Mariners come to
Dodger Stadium next month, so.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Well, I'm sure he will get a hero's welcome when
he returns.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Sad news Matt former Major league pitcher Reyes Moronta, who
was out of San Francisco dominating their bullpen for a
couple of seasons.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Is that the real big guy?
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Yes? Yeah, he died on Sunday. He was thirty one.
He was in a like an ATV accident, traffic accident
in the dr He pitched twenty two games for the
Dodgers in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
That's terrible.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Yes, Training camps continue around the league. The Chargers were
at the Bolt and El Segundo. Guess who else was there, Matts? Yeah,
that's right. I was out there with my eyes on practice.
Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh was out there doing everything right.
And he wrote a response that he will use whenever
he's asked about injuries this season a sweeping answer for clarity.
Speaker 6 (08:54):
Whenever I'm asked about anybody's medical condition other than my own,
the following will be my best effort to relay information.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
I am not.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
Medically qualified to categorize or speculate as to how someone
else is feeling. The best I can do is say
that someone is working through something. Two, I get to
report from those who are qualified and.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Then follow the instructions.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Three.
Speaker 7 (09:21):
At the times I look or sound like I am
not a medical expert in the field of medicine, guilty
is charged.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
Yeah, that was surrounding his being peppered with questions about
Rashaun Slater, who left practice Friday and then did not
come out to practice on Saturday. He was out there today,
full participant, but clearly perturbed in Bill Belichickian, and this
will be the standard response moving forward. So y'all know
where we stand from this moment.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
I'm still going to try him.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
I had to ask the question.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Women's the basket ball beat Japan today got to respect
the beat as they start their quest for an eight
straight gold although they don't have Caitlyn Clark, so not
as many people are watching.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
Yeah, I didn't watch. If Caitlin Clark was on the team.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Eyeballs, I would have thought about watch. Yeah, you might,
I would have thought about it. The US men's gymnastics teams,
that's how we roll. Takes home the bronze and celebrated
like Pat Beverley winning the play in. That's I mean
they went bronze. Yeah, berserk, they all went and got bronzer. Yeah,
they were geeked into Japan and China were like some
(10:38):
of these guys podium man. We won bringing a metal
home for the first time since twenty eight, which is
when Matt and I played that. That's how we roll.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
That's how we is that how far back that goes?
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Yes, that is from twenty eight. That's how we roll.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
That guy's boy still sounds the same.
Speaker 5 (10:59):
That's how we.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
Rop not sped up. That is it. That is a
clip from that dude.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
That's how Fresh Flowers has been altered.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
Fresh Flowers has been altered.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Roff and Nadal fell to the Joker in straight sets,
and what could be the final match at Roland Garros
for Nadal and Cocoa. Goff wins her first round in
straight sets, so that's great. In a doubles tournament, America's
Tommy Paul and Taylor Fritz. Yeah, Fritz won their first
round match seven and six and six to four.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
Chase Budinger, Yeah time. Obviously. Arizona standout college basketball longtime
NBA Miles Evans won their preliminary beach volleyball match.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Yeah, so did that, Amy Schumer, lady.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
Very tall drink of water for the ladies in a
beach volleyball?
Speaker 2 (11:41):
How great is the beach volleyball with the Eiffel Tower
in the background.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
Beautiful? Oh, it's beautiful, beautiful, stunning, stunning backdrop skateboarding.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
I'll tell you about that Eiffel Tower in the summertime.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
Udilhragomi beats out Americans Jagger Eaton and Nijia Houston for
the gold medal in the men's street event, eating Houston
claimed silver and bronze respectively. Oh, this is not the
beach volleyball. P US women's volleyball team erased the two
sets to undeficit against China, but came up short in
the fifth, so they lose. That's the one with the
(12:15):
libero in group play. Sadly, none of the uh, well,
we don't have the exact results from the women's beach,
but we believe we saw a hell of a victory
from that Schumer, as you like to describe her. They
beat the Aussies, They beat the Aussies.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Do we lose really in skateboarding to a kid from Japan.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
Japan is very good at skateboarding.
Speaker 5 (12:35):
I mean, all these kids are skateboarding, the scouts Southern
Japan for skating.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
We can't even get gold in the Olympics.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
And we got beaten water puddle too by the Spaniards,
by the Spanish Armada.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
And both our dudes, our surfer guys, John, John and
Griffin got knocked out today as well by France and Australia.
They're getting hosed over there, man, French surfers. There's not
even waves over there, Bro, They're in Tahiti. Yeah, there's

Kates deciphering it all for you at seven o'clock.

But if you missed it a little bit earlier, Ahmed
Rosario acquired from the Rays that goes with Michael Kopek
and Tommy Edmund earlier in a three way trade, and
(13:38):
now they add Amed Rosario. They give up Ryan Yarborough,
well technically he's designated for assignment, and they give up
some minor leaguers in the deal. This Friday, remember venue

Joining us right now, Italian American Legend, straight out of

and only John Paul Morosi MLB Network Insider. They got

and we sure appreciate it. It is John Paul Morosi.
(14:56):
What's crack at JPM? How are you?
Speaker 3 (14:59):
That's trusting money?
Speaker 4 (15:00):
Friends.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
I am doing great. I'm joining you from Citizens Bank
Park in beautiful Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. We've got the Yankees and
Phillies on tonight MLB Network, So what a perfect place
to be to talk some trade deadline with you, my
friends this evening.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Well, we saw the Dodgers make a little bit of
a move earlier today, maybe bigger than a little bit
of a move. What do you anticipate if they need
anything more or what they're going to do as the
day goes on.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
I still believe the Dodgers are in the market for pitching,
and I know their bullpen, they expect that they'll get
more of their guys back here in the coming days.
I think they still have some high hopes for Ryan
Brazier to be a part of their bullpen down the
stretch in the second half. I still look at this
Dodger rotation and even after adding Michael Kopek today, there's
(15:49):
still a little bit short in my estimation of starting
pitchers who can take you deep into games in the postseason.
The Dodgers have had and they still have a streak
of fifteen playoff games in a row in which their
starting pitcher has not gone into the sixth inning, and
at some point that has to be addressed. That way,
they can just navigate a postseason series without having to
(16:10):
involve their bullpen so early in games, So that to
me is the one big part of it. I think
addressing some of their position player needs with Tommy Edmond,
who can move around the diamond for you. He is
best against left handed pitching, so I would expect that
once he's fully ready to go, and he was actually
just in the minor leagues on a rehab assignment with
the Saint Louis Cardinals, that once he's fully ready to
(16:32):
play defense at the major league level again, that he'll
be in the Dodger lineup, I believe against every left
handed starter and many right handed starters as well. And
I think it does open up a lot of conversations
about what Mookie bets his role is going to be
once he is back. Do they maybe look at him
in the outfield again and have Edmond played shortstop with
with luxover at second base? A lot of options because
(16:55):
of the versatility. I think in some ways Edmunds versatility
reminds me of bit of what Key k Hernandez does.
Uh maybe a little bit a little bit more offensive
upside if he's fully healthy. But I think there is
some overlap between Edmund and Key k.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
Are you surprised that they took edmind because they could
have just done the package straight with the White Sox
and brought in fam and brought it, brought in Fetti
and added that starter and added that that extra veteran
bat as opposed to kind of it feels like John
maybe taking a big swing on this Edmund thing since
he has not played a lick this season.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
I agree that there is there is a little bit
of risk there, and and part of part of me
would have honestly favored the White the Cardinal's return they
got from the White Sox in this because Fetti, to me,
gives you that reliability that I was alluding to that
the Dodgers don't have and haven't had in a while.
And if I had my pick of a guy that
(17:49):
I wanted to go to to start a game in
the postseason right now, I would take the reliability of
of Fetti over the electricity of co And I know
that the Dodgers still they have a different opinion, and
they've got a lot of really smart baseball people, and
so I would I'd be the last one to second
guess them. But it just in my judgment, the Dodgers
(18:11):
have a staff of a lot of guys who can
dazzle over a short period of time. They don't have
a ton of guys give you length.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
Now.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Is River Ryan? Will they keep this up? Is he
going to be somebody that you go to in October
for a big start? Maybe he's looked phenomenal so far.
But I do think that that reliability of Fetti is
one commodity that I that I would have liked to
have if I was the Dodgers, and I think that
Tommy fam is going to do a lot for the Cardinals.
They of course know Welly originally came up as a Cardinal.
(18:40):
He was a big reason why the diamondback a minute
to the World Series a year ago. And I think
that was an excellent pick up in a lot of
ways by the same Louis Cardinals.
Speaker 4 (18:47):
Is it, you know, just because we expect them to
always make these big moves like they seemingly did every
single season prior to last year, does it just feel
like maybe there's something else out there that that that's
going to be that star And if there is, JPM,
who do you think it would be?
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Yeah, it's a great question. I I don't think that
they'll get Schooble. I think if Trek Scoogle moves, the
team that would get him is Baltimore. I'm not convinced
at all that he's going to try to think it's
really it's a coin flip for me with Schooble where
he might go for the Dodgers. Think one name that
I that I would mention that I think as the possibility.
(19:24):
As you say, Kikuchi, there has been some talk between
the Dodgers and Blue Jays about him. He hasn't pitched
great over the last month, but I do think getting
into Dodgers Stadium great place to pitch. I think he'd
be a phenomenal asset for the Dodgers if they could
make that deal work. So I do think Kikuchi is
(19:44):
still out there in a possibility even some lesser options.
Rogers with the Marlins, is the possibility. Frankie Montasi's name
has been out there with the Reds. There are still
some starters out there. I think it is really the
next day will tell us how the Dodgers feel, how
confident they are in River Ryan, how confident they are
(20:05):
in Kershaw's health and glass Noow's health, Because unlike the
good old days of the August trading period, this is it.
This is the last This is the last station you
hit before you enter the desert on your way to Vegas.
So you better refuel right now. And I think that
that's that's the emotion the Dodgers are experiencing right now.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Live from prim Nevada. It is John Paul Morosi, a hero.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
You know that road, You've you've had that drive a call.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
We've been around JPM, but we sure appreciate you joining
us today. You're a champion for doing it. It feels like,
just listening everybody talk about it, that the sellers really
have the buyers by the balls this year.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
I do think that, as you very eloquently said, Petros,
it would be a seller's market to this point in time.
And I think one of the more interesting things too,
is that we do have some sellers to sellers trades.
We even had a buyer's to buyers the other day
with the Rays and the Cubs so and the seller.
The buyer to buyer trade that I mentioned was between
(21:06):
Baltimore and Philly. So there are these interesting constructs out there.
What I will say is this, and I encourage you,
as you very very faithfully mentioned about our MLB network
coverage tomorrow, when you see trades happen that are of
a certain significance, and I would describe today's three teen
dealers being significant. Jazz Chisholm to the Yankees, and we'll
(21:29):
see him to night here on the network. He's significant.
The Arosa rate of trade is significant with the Mariners.
When you see significant trades happening more than twenty four
hours before the deadline. It really excites me because that
tells me that a lot of really creative people in
the industry have a lot of time to think about
other options. And so that's what I'm seeing right now.
(21:51):
I think we're going to see a tremendous amount of
potentially high impact trades. Do we see a SCOOPA blockbuster? Maybe?
I think that when you have this amount of time
left for people to get creative, I think that poor
tend's a very active trade deadline tomorrow, So tune in
the network tomorrow. Will be breaking down all the deals for.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
You all day long, JPM. Just real quick, last thing
for you. Did the Phillies and the Padres giving up
all those prospects for those relievers? Did they just nuke
the market? Did they screw everybody because they gave up
so much?
Speaker 3 (22:24):
I certainly think they set the bar high. And Dave
Dombrowski is, and I'm speaking of course here in Philly,
he's gonna be at well, I'll say this, I'm gonna
say it. I'll say it very clearly. He did give
up a lot. He gave up a lot period. But
he's going to the Hall of Fame because he's not
been afraid to make trades, and I think that a
lot of executives in the modern game think of reasons
(22:47):
to not make trades. Dave den Browski thinks of reasons
to make trades. And I think that the Phillies, yes,
they paid a high price, but Carlos Stevz is to
me a very impactful eliee picture for them, and I
expect he'll get the ninth inning of fair Up with
Jeff Hoffin will be in a little bit earlier, and
I agree with you that whether it's Lucas Erseg from
Oakland or Chad Green with Toronto or Jason Foley with Tigers,
(23:09):
it's gonna mean that lot a lot more teams have
to pay, think a high price tag to get those
deals done.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
At this time tomorrow, who will the Dodgers have acquired?
Check out John Palmer Rossi on the Major League Baseball
Network MLB Network and check it out for all the
latest information. And of course the Phillies tonight if he
can get out of there alive in one piece.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Thank you, jam, Thank you Petros the money. I appreciate it.
We'll talk a little baseball, a little bit of college football,
and'll be next converse.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
How about that, We're ready talk about Sharon. All right, there,
he goes John Palmrosi. We'll be right back and we'll
wrap it up with your dead and alive guy. Birthday
of the day next and.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
If you miss it, Dodgers traded for a med Rosario, Yes,
saying the med Rosario they traded for last year at
the deadline from the Guardians. This time they get him
from the race. He's hitting over three hundred. Give up
some honor leaguers and they designate Ryan Yarborough for assignment
in order to make room on their roster.
Speaker 1 (24:04):

Dr Pepper. It's Pepper Push. Let's go Dr Pepper to
hell with Campsite. We're going to Waco. Somebody told me
Campsite has only three and a half parking spaces, so
that was good that we were able to avoid that
three point five.
Speaker 4 (25:39):
So we could have had.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
And they said nine people behind the bar, but a
line of fifty people to get a beer, because that's
how an e f they were.
Speaker 4 (25:48):
So we're going to Brewer brew Ridgs.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
See you there two o'clock Friday. All right, Matt, just
like you, uh when you were landlocked, you know, before
you were a serf dude with an attitude. This guy
Indianapolis Royalty Booth Tarkington would have been one hundred and
fifty five years old today. I had heard of some
of his works. I did not know how popular he
(26:15):
was in the first half of the twentieth century. Booth
Tarkington hell of a name. His father was a judge.
His son fran the original scrambler. No no relation, no relation.
His father was a judge. He went to Exeter, went
to Purdue, went to Princeton. Acted, but started writing in
(26:38):
the late nineteenth century. He served a term as a
Republican member of the Indiana House of Representatives and wrote
about it in his very first successful work, The Gentleman
from Indiana. I mean that could be your biographical title.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
Man, That's exactly what it would be.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
He had a lot of success, just like the Voice
of the Bolt. He is one of only four novelists
to win the Pulitzer for Fiction more than once. You
got Bill Faulkner, you got Johnny Updyke, and some guy
named Whitehead, and this dude with and this guy Tarkington.
(27:19):
He was an unabashed Midwestern regionalist. He loved Indiana and
most of his works were based in Indiana, like the
NFL Combine and the Big Ten Championship. Most of the time,
he wrote some lasting things, the Penrod trilogy, which is
kind of like Huck Finn for Indiana.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
Rods of Penns No, this just guy's name.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
And the book The Magnificent Amberson's which is part of
an epic trilogy about an Indianapolis family, was made into
a movie a few times. That's the movie that ruined
orson Well's relationship with RKO and all that. That was
the movie that you know, they cut an hour out
of and he got all bent out of shape. But anyway,
that's his book. And uh, he really did do books
(28:09):
about just kind of coming up in Midwestern society. And
Alice Adams was the last book that he won a
Pulitzer for about a young woman Climbing the social ladder,
A prolific Library twenty five plays a true man of letters,
generally regarded while he was alive as the best living
(28:29):
American writer.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
About that, that's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
That's like being Colin Cowhard. How so, I mean the
best living sports talket. He's a guy, he got the numbers.
You could cut his head off all you want, less
than Kylin.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
They might take shots at you, but they're just jealous
of there's the theft.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
And this guy we're alive today.
Speaker 5 (28:46):
Would he live west to Sepulvida or he more like
an east of Supulvita kind of.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Guy, probably live in like the castle that the NCAA
built in Indianablance. There was probably probably a west to
sepulvet The guy all his work is a Princeton. Now
he died in Indianapolis.
Speaker 4 (29:02):
It's not nearly as interesting as if he was a
Montana or Wiltshire guy. I mean, ultimately, it's what we want.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
I don't even know, Matt. I don't even know if
he ever came out to the West coast.
Speaker 4 (29:11):
You're a live guy headed Kate Spirit of Radio Gary
Lee winerib you want a power trio, You're not top
and Rush happy seventy first. Ketty born outside Toronto. Parents
gnarly Holocaust survivors from Poland who met at Auschwitz. Survived
(29:34):
that nightmare, transferred to other camps.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
What are you doing after this?
Speaker 4 (29:38):
Uh? Mom went to one camp, Dad went to Daciu.
They survived both of those, and after the war, Pops
commits himself to find Manya, the woman he fell in
love with at Aschwitz. Finds her and they say, we're
out of here. Canada, Canada. It is. It's tough, tough
to blame them, right. They have one of rock's true
(29:59):
geniuses for us. Dad died when Getty was young. Mom
raised the three kids working. She supported him playing guitar, drums, trumpet, clarinet, piano, lessons,
paid for it all. Let the kids in the kid
band practice in the basement. And how did he repair?
When he was sixteen, he dropped out of high school
because Rush is booking gigs. Mom, and I'm going to
(30:21):
bring home the bacon. She freaked out.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
But all those years you've vomited because of my needling voice.
Speaker 4 (30:28):
He so he drops out of high school. He takes
odd jobs during the day they play on the weekends,
word travels about Rush. They start opening for all the
rock bands that come through Toronto, Blue Oyster, Cult, Kiss, Aerosmith,
And it was a grind for about three four years,
but they made a living seventy four debut album, Rush
(30:49):
Independent sells out of its initial thirty five hundred copies.
That lands him a booking agent. That booking agent sends
a copy of the record to Mercury. They signed Rush
and they get Busy sophomore release. Eh. But nineteen seventy
six start of a five album run that launched them
(31:09):
into one of the most famous, most popular, and most
successful rock bands on Earth.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
That was their Penrod trilogy.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
That's what it was, those five records, culminating in nineteen
eighty one with Moving Pictures Limelight. Tom Sawyer sold five
million copies in the US alone arena tour sold out
kick Ass Live shows. The emergence, though of Lee's musical genius,
his ability to vary time signatures, play multiple keyboards, use
bass pedal controllers, and control sequencers, all while singing lead
(31:43):
vocals into as many as three different microphones. He is
regularly regarded as the greatest rock bassist ever, and it's
unanimous that he's the most influential rock bassist ever. It's
got a great sense of humor, doesn't take himself too seriously.
Did the title track for Bob and Doug McKenzie take
(32:03):
Off in nineteen eighty one, and that became his biggest
hit in Canada. It was number one for two months straight.
Take Off a poor guy by Getty Lee.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
If you're stuff with the greatest drummer of all time
and me the bassist, we really.
Speaker 4 (32:18):
Liked that Takeoff. Hey, he did the rock arrangement for
Oak Canada. That's out part. Guys.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
That's how Genesis felt about I Can't Dance. I think
that's your biggest hit. Yep, that's unfortunate. He's a big
baseball guy, huge collection of memorabilia that he regularly allows
to tour the various baseball museums, Negro League Baseball Museum
in Kansas City, obviously the Hall of Fame. He's a
big wine guy, big collection, five thousand bottles. Like Lebron
(32:49):
and JJ Reddick. You think they could sit around a
table and drink some juice.
Speaker 4 (32:53):
Well, Lebron and JJ Reddick like to show off their
wine drinking skills by drinking wine on their podcast What
is Get You Do. He funds a yearly scholarship at
Niagara College for wine making students. He gives back marriage
since seventy six to someone named Nancy. They have a
son and a daughter. He's seventy one today.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Kenny Lee Tim Kates will have the latest on the
trade deadline coming up next with Dodger Talk Off Night,
