Speaker 1 (01:36):
It was delicious, all rightd it at your local grocer Arigato, mister,
that's right, Roboto Top story of Today, Top Sorry of It.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
So I'm gonna double down here another day. I'm gonna
double down on a conversation we had yesterday because I was.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Was there some kind of controversial.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Well, I was listening to the MLB Network on the
way in Okay, just to kind of take the national
temp of the Dodgers. They tip understandably. They talk a
lot of Yankees, they talk a lot of Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
I also, even if I'm only on for an inning.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
We'll talk like thees so regularly. I'll check in with
Spilly Who's yeah, half of that show case?
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Do you know?
Speaker 3 (02:25):
It's Spilborg and I can't remember who the other guy is,
but they're good. Both former players.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
And they don't hold back, man. They tell you like
it is. They say it like it is. We discussed
this extensively yesterday. It's worth revisiting because truly it does
not me trying to have some sort of hot take,
but I don't comprehend.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
And as I thought about it, you don't have to try, Matt.
You are involuntarily inflammatory. I'm a hot taker. Uh.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
They were discussing that suggested that it was petty that
the Angels perhaps did not pay tribute to show Hail Tani.
And you said it repeatedly. And it's the point that
I kept returning to last night as I was watching
the game and all of the Dodger fans that were
in attendance, and it was a late arriving crowd. So
(03:13):
even if they had played the video for his first
at bat, is DV suggested they do yesterday because all
of those people weren't there when the forty thousand were
in attendance for his first return to Angel Stadium in
a Dodger uniform, and it was packed that day with
about forty k for his first at bat, places half
empty when he stepped into the batter's box on the
top of the first But what you have said repeatedly
(03:36):
is this a guy that played in Anaheim for six years,
who won MVP Awards, who won the Rookie of the Year,
who was and put together what many believe is the
most remarkable season that we have seen in the history
of baseball in an era of specialists, bigger, faster, stronger.
(03:58):
How well the game of baseball is played now compared
to what it was back in the nineteen twenties. That
Sho Haltani starting twenty five games with an ERA of
three point zero five whatever it was, mashing forty five
homers and being challenging for the Triple Crown, and nobody
gave a rip, and it was a blip on the
(04:22):
sports radar of Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
It would be.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Mentioned and we'd pay attention to it, but it wasn't
the event that it should have been.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
No, No, it was certainly hidden from sight. It was
kind of like the Clippers when they were lob City.
It's kind of a national highlight sort of event, but
nothing that really.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
ESPN is on Otani watch and they're playing the home
runs and they're counting wins. No traction in town, Oh,
nobody that is a Dodger fan. That really was. I
felt like that's the side that was suggesting, how dare
you you are petty? You're a pathetic, cut rate organization
(05:01):
that wouldn't give a deliver a tribute. Well, yeah, of
course you're going to say that because you're a Dodger
fan who was not paying attention to what Otani has
been doing the last six years anyway, So what right
do you have to demand some sort of tribute video
be delivered by them for a forty five or forty
thousand seed stadium that's got thirty thousand Dodger fans in it.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
They've already been cucked. Why do they have to clean
the sheets? That's the thing?
Speaker 3 (05:24):
The and and what are the you know, I guess
the question is what are the angels owe them? Did
they become relevant in LA when they had six years
of Otani two MVP's Rookie.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Of the Year More relevant than they are now, certainly?
Speaker 3 (05:38):
But no, No, they got a bunch of Japanese advertisements
out of it.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
They got a bunch of tora What does that get
your keats? Exactly right? A bit more national to ladies
and Kimono's wandering around with cameras in the concourse.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Uh Otani's era for the Angels reads as such, fourth place,
fourth place, fourth place, how many teams five? Fourth place?
So here we go, fourth place, fourth place, fourth place,
fourth place, third place. At seventy three and eighty nine,
fourth place. That's his time with the Angels. He showed
(06:18):
up in twenty eighteen. And to illustrate my point, in
twenty eighteen, the Angels attendance is three million, twenty thousand,
two hundred sixteen. The year before without sho Hao Tani
attendance three million, nineteen thousand, five hundred eighty five.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Take that, Tampa Bay.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
They added seven hundred more asses in seats his rookie season.
That's a lot of ass and the following year three million,
twenty three thousand and extra four thousand asses over the
course of eighty two games are eighty one games. And
from there, granted there was COVID and all that BM
(07:02):
not exactly the Taylor Swift effect last year two point
six million, Like I'm sorry, it didn't. It didn't do
what it is doing this year for the Dodgers, where
the Petros and Money show is not invited out to
do the show, and.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
The Dodgers didn't have an attendance problem. No, not to
say the Angels really did. But the Dodgers are the
most attendant sport on Earth, with or without show Aton.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
But like the idea that he transformed this franchise, he
made them something that they had never been before.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
They didn't bring Sushie to the lodge. No, that's a lie.
Like it.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
It was more the Clipper's analogy is perfect. It became
more of a national MLB network highlight. ESPN is gonna
maybe lead with the highlights. Can you believe what Shoe
Haletany did tonight?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Wh Chocolate Hit Sacramento. Check out this assists?
Speaker 3 (07:53):
Yeah, the Brian, the Brian Kinney gushing over what he's witnessing.
Peter Gammon, Tim Kirchin, Kirchen, those guys, Jason Stark writing
three thousand word pieces on the Athletic about the marvel
that is sho Heltani is all it did. What Eric
Carro said on the broadcast last night could be interpreted
(08:14):
as cutting, as snarky in the direction of Gooby and
the Angels, but he was exactly right. When sho Haes
stepped into the box, he said, this is the first
meaningful game. This guy has played at Angel Stadium in September. Oh,
and he had been there for six years. And he's
absolutely right.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
You know, that's a sinister statement from a guy with
a sinister for sultpack right and mustache.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
He's absolutely right. He had never played a meaningful September
game for six years for the Angels. So who the
hell is demanding a six minute video tribute for fourth place?
Fourth place, fourth place, fourth place, third place, fourth place
over six years? And it doesn't line up? And you're
seeing the difference. It is as stark as red and blue.
(08:58):
Of what difference it may be when Otani is on
the Dodgers versus when Otan he is not even having
remotely the season he had last year when he won
whatever it was, twelve games, he pitched, pitched and was
the best hitter in baseball and made twenty five stars.
It's not even close to that. And yet this feels
like it's the greatest season he's ever had in his career,
(09:19):
feels like the first time, feels like the very first time.
And it's because he's wearing Dodger blue. So sorry, they're
not being petty. He went to the absolute worst place
for Angel fans that he could have possibly gone thirty
miles up the road where he's being celebrated. Is the
greatest thing in baseball, despite having been the greatest thing
(09:40):
in baseball for the last four years.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
I hate to say it, Matt, but the Angels look weak, sad,
and pathetic.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Exactly right, It's exactly right. They made the right move
tipping the cap on the scoreboard when he stepped into
the box with his accolades and his resume is an Angel,
Well give it a minute before you make that first
pitch and then move along. Nothing to see here. Fourth place,
fourth place, fourth place, fourth place, third place, fourth place.
(10:12):
What's there to celebrate? Exactly mediocre? Not trading him at
the deadline when you're three games out of the wild
card and then promptly losing seven consecutive games and being
totally out of it a week later.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Let's celebrate this horrible missed opportunity.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Yes, Mike Trout and sho Hao Tani never making a
postseason and never playing above five hundred ball at the
end of a year.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Was Trout there last night?
Speaker 3 (10:36):
By the way, I didn't I didn't see him, or
is he in New Jersey?
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Already doing his offseason stuff.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
I think he's in Brazil getting ready for the Eagles,
Oh Packers games? Oh sweet, yeah, the Millville media. That's right,
he's trying to find ways not to have to play.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Sorr. Yes, got to go to Brazil, my Eagles. Why
don't you just dhy? What are you even trying to
play center field for if you're knee screwed up? Did
want to hurt it again so I don't have to
play anymore? Oh do? Okay, we'll be back this time,
highly anticipated Bachelorette finale and you're dead and a live
guy birthday the day to finish out the hour, We'll
be done at five thirty ish, Moroco Casino, Dodgers on deck.
(11:16):
After that, Petro some money.

Deborah from zensh from taking us on a tour, A
(11:46):
tour of the ages, mango con Chile. I feel like
lou Zamperini, the seven and tune in the geary. Our
palate was not prewar, you say it?
Speaker 1 (12:00):
The pokey bowl with a presentation chessloy the little flork Oh,
Kate's pulling out the little fork for the poke bowl.
See is the refinement of Tim Kates's son. We love
zen She.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Hey, when you go to the grocery store and you're
grabbing that sushi at the reuse, did you know that's
zensh that's what you're eating and that's what we ate today.

How do you got those? Sin? Say Kates? And man,
was it good? Thank you? Zen she sushi spicy too.
I'll tell you this is a real taste of the East.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Hold on, I think I got one ahead of you.
Am I on the crunchy dragon or am I on
the dragon roll imitation?
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Pray? I believe it's the yuzuo terioki, samon avocado, my
favorite chili, sorrento. That's it, spicy tiger tempers. Save one
for Colin. Make sure he gets one. I'll tell you why,
because he works on the doors. It works on the doctor,
all right, Matt speaking of it Asian people. Matt, I'm
(13:06):
just gonna I don't know if you've seen any of
the headlines. I have not. I hope you don't call
me a race. I have not.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
I did walk in when Kate's not cool and he said,
don't listen, it's phenomenal, and I was like, all right,
I walked out and I got a coffee.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
It's made all kinds of headlines. I've not seen the headlines,
and we've been on it from the beginning, Matt. But
I will explain it to you in the form of
a text that was said to me earlier this morning.
It said, man, I just finished the Bachelorette season finale
and they put Jen in the wood chipper like Fargo. Wow,
that bad. We said it from the jump tonight, Matt.
(13:44):
We finished the Bachelorette not that attractive. I kind of
thought she was a little sexy at the end there.
But uh, I think sadly, of course, as they rarely
do Melbourne rarely do things end well, especially when a
TV network is involved, and things do not end well here,
but usually they don't end so badly. I'm so excited
(14:05):
right now. This just implodes and Tim Kates had to
do some gymnastics like Circus Vargas to get this on
the air, because we have Disney and Spectrum here at
the station, and we got our puzza.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Block, we got Direct TV, and we got host hard,
we got hosts super hard.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Is that why they spectrumed it?
Speaker 3 (14:25):
That's why they spectrum it because we got direct TV.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
All right, They got to figure out a solution by
tomorrow when the NFL starts right here on am FI
seventy other sports. We can't afford for them to wait.
We just got Spectrum.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
We flipped it. We flipped the switch yesterday just in time.
So we didn't get Direct tv' so we got Spectrum.
Your satellite suck. They're covered in bird poop and rust.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Here's Jen and her mother, who is Vietnamese, okay or Filipino. Yeah,
and exactly right. And here here's the mom encouraging her
to find love at the beginning of the episode.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Yeah, I'm nervous, but I'm so excited reading the first
I see print the man homes. So I just hope
she made my ride decision and she can find the
right man.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
And the most important thing that we can do is
just guide her and to her her opinions.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Yeah, my daughter, Yeah, everything to me. So I want
Jen to find her honored man and the man you
luck her for the red of her life.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
I wish my mom would say those things about me. God,
that's beautiful. What a beautiful voice. Either had a sing
song styles, it's beautiful. Well, Marcus can't get there. The
guy who's an army ranger who blew up, he's the
other guy left in Devin. I remember Devin, the dude
that looks like the Pete David p. Davidson.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
And I think our guy is Harvard something like writing
like a Harvard Marine or something like that. Smart guy
and a marine, like a real ass case. Well, he
went to he's from Takole Myers. But Marcus can't get there, gotcha.
He can't find love with her, and he leaves. He's
sent home before the engagement before. I told her that, Yeah,
they just.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Can't get there for whatever reason, they can't get there, Okay,
and he leaves. And I would play you that, but
there's so much involved with the other stuff. So she's
just down to one guy. Yeah, for the final rose,
that's it. Yeah, And he gets the engagement ring. An
oval stone from Neil Lane and they get engaged. But
then I'm like watching the episode and you know, flipping
(16:42):
through like I do, and I'm like, where's the engagement part?
What are they going to do the engagement? They never
get to it till the very end, so they could
try to end on a happy note, because things go
unlike the zenschi sushi so sour, there's no sweetness, only
sour and bitterness, and oh my god, I really don't
(17:02):
want to marry this four foot elevenation chick. Oh it
gets that sideway, it gets that bad. Apparently after the engagement,
Devon became increasingly distant on the telephone and yes on
the telephone, and then just they can't be seen together
in one fifteen Bargo. Well, yeah, they were supposed to
(17:23):
have what they call happy couple retreats, and right before
they had one, he called her fifteen minute conversation severed ties,
and then hit the club and then immediately followed Maria
the Greek chick. They knew it, The dirty Canadian Greek
knew it. They followed. He followed her on Instagram, inflaming
(17:44):
the Asian bachelorette who's been totally jilted. Two guys get
to the end and they realize, now, wait a minute,
I don't want to get married. What is this? So
here you go. Here she is explaining what Devin did.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
I don't understand what happens. I don't understand what changed.
I don't know. I don't know what was happening through
his all of love that he had wanted to give
to me wasn't there anymore. But last time we saw
each other was oh, over a month ago, at our
last happy couple like back in July.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Are you ready to stand now?
Speaker 4 (18:23):
I don't know. I mean I've been trying to see
him and just like have a conversation with him, and
like I thought we were on the same page of
like okay, like no matter how this ends, like we
both owe each other a conversation, and he's just been
avoidant ever since and just like almost like leading me
(18:43):
on here and there being like, yes, we're on the
same page, let's have a conversation, and then ghosting in
the next weekend. It's like we were full blown engagment
in love and now you're ignoring my text like I
mean nothing to okay.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Typical toxic masculinity in Matt when she's describing that the
shots of the women in the crowd disgusted, horrified, slowly
shaking their head. This makes me sack. They define be
a man, face your problems. Well he does, you coward.
He goes out there and like a Hoffy hot dog,
(19:15):
he gets his poozza scure just absolutely lacerated. And uh,
well he's a good talker, and he just starts saying,
like you know, it was it was I wasn't good
enough for you.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
He said, you were having doubts on the show that
you never wanted to get engaged, and you hid all
of this from me. I didn't, and we were in
a relationship for two months. I was pouring everything into you. Well,
you hit all these feelings of doubt and made me
fell even more in love with you and made me
feel doubt and try to be in a fight for
a relationship that was out the door half the.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Time eighty eight out again.
Speaker 5 (19:53):
As we said, as we talked, you know, it's it's
it's hard to sit here and deny what you're accusing
me of, and it's hard to sit here and kind
of put it into those words. You know, I told
you way back when that I was trying to scour
(20:13):
my brain to find some external reason to why this
was happening to me. I was very honest with you
at every step and every every doubt until last month.
I was regretfully late on letting you know.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Right, I let you know. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 5 (20:33):
I can only sit here and take accountability for my shortcomings.
And I have no doubts that I have many more
in your mind than I won.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
And I didn't want to get married to the little
Asian chick, but I won. I'm the winner, You're the loser.
By the end of this show, she looks like the
chick and the helicopter. At the end of Predator, just
absolutely blown out, just make up God, just fully and
completely ruined for any other person, just destroyed. Saw all
(21:07):
those guys killed by the predator. Very bad scene and
there's no way to gussie it up at the.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
End and pick me. You said to my mom that
you knew what it was like to be abandoned. Never
want to do that to me.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
To the very end, I wanted that I how can you,
how can I say? How can I say that I'm sorry?
More than I tried to be, Like I said, I
keep saying, oh, I said sorry.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
I can't say sorry anymore. That's what you said to me,
and you broke with you. And a fifteen minute phone
call he said, I can't be sorry anywhere. I gotta go,
and you know, you know what, I can't sit here
and just listen to you everything that you said on
that TV show, every time you said I love you
so much. You're the one I want to wake up
every day and fight for you.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Where was the fight?
Speaker 4 (21:52):
When did you try to fight for our relationship?
Speaker 1 (21:55):
I thought?
Speaker 3 (21:55):
I thought, I thought, I thought, Yeah, that's what was
He the one that was like I said I love
her and she didn't say it. Bast he wanted the
well and all that. I mean, what a real piece
of crap.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
Well, once he got engaged, he was like, maybe I
don't want it. Am I still an s girl. I
don't want to make a run and get the win.
But to say, I'm so sad she didn't say she
loved me when I said it, and like to play
that and now this is uf this guy. You want
to hear the engagement? He actually doesn't because she wanted
him to feel loved. She's the one that proposed.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
No, she doesn't. Why would they make her do this?
Why would they make her do this?
Speaker 1 (22:35):
This is a contract. It ends there with her just
crying up there on stage, looking like the chick at
the end of the Predator. I think it's in the
contract you have to propose in the helicopter with Arnold,
it's not in the contract. People don't always propose. And
at the end of it, they're like, okay, well, let's
show the engagement and they make her sit next to
him through it. It's the most uncomfortable thing I've ever seen.
(22:58):
And then they're like, all right, well, here's the Golden Bachelorette.
Here's this old wizard's sleep. Who's gonna be the Golden Bachelorette?
And then they just all right, see, that's it. Thanks.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
I want to fight for you every day. I don't
want to help carry your burdens. I want to put
a smile on your face. And honestly, I just don't
want to live without you. You were everything that I've
ever dreamed of but didn't know that it could have.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
You can't have it.
Speaker 4 (23:33):
We didn't know.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
They're watching this together right now, everybody in the audience
watching this right now.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
How's umiliating.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
I want to wake up and choose you every day
for the rest of my life. Today and every day,
and maybe I.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Want to grow old as you abuse. It's a fairy tale.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Streeter, Will you please make me the happiest.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Girl in the world and marry Like at one point
during that is you like, what if I got myself,
I'd get out of this. Yeah, couple, I.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
Think this is a little different than the conversation that
I was hoping to have with you. I went there
for a work trip.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
I met a client in the club. No, I did
see Jeremy. I did?
Speaker 5 (24:50):
I did club? Am I not allowed to live a life?
Speaker 1 (24:55):
No?
Speaker 4 (24:55):
You can live a life. You can go calming as
much as you want.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
You have no idea what to have a what was
hard about it?
Speaker 5 (25:00):
And listen, you always spoke so confidently about your love
for Jen and it seemed like the only thing you
really ever needed back from her.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Plaid that to you, right, right? So what happened?
Speaker 5 (25:13):
I mean, I think it's it's like how we talked.
I told you, you know, when we left the show,
I had a lot of doubts, and regretfully and sadly
I suppressed those feelings and I did come clean to
you about that.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I was very honest.
Speaker 5 (25:26):
And I think one thing that you can say here,
and I hope you can, is that I have been
honest with you throughout every.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
Two months after you had felt all those doubts. I
was in a relationship with you for two months after
the show where you had one foot out the door
and so of communicating with me how you had actually
felt about me. And you said you were having doubts
on the show, that you never wanted to get engaged,
and you hid all of this from me. I didn't,
and we're doing a relationship for two months. I was
pouring everything into you. Well, you hit all these feelings
(25:53):
of doubt.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Yes, yes, you've hit it on the head. That is
an accurate representation. I'm a fraud. I wanted to win
the game. I'm a big fat phony. I'm not sure
if you're aware of this. It's a network television show
and I just am here to win. When I realized
that the trophy was a four foot elevenation girl with
