Lawyer Lawrence Llewellen. How about that alliteration?
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Lawyer Lawrence Llewellen russy the bailiffs paper.
Speaker 4 (04:01):
Uh, concerned about the spread of germs due to people
sharing glasses and dippers in public drinking spaces. And I
didn't have the fountain back then, Yeah you ladle it out.
Invented the first paper cup. He called it Clean Cup
with a K K L E A N cup. Couldn't
(04:22):
figure out why wouldn't catch on. After five years of
barely breaking even and losing a little bit of money
on the clean Cup, he decided to just rename it
same paper cup, but he named it after a popular
line of toys, Dixie Dolls. Once he called it a
Dixie cup, they started using him intros.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Go figure, Oh it's Dixie Land, and I'll make my

The Dodgers, eighty six and fifty nine cups tonight, Bobby

Speaker 3 (05:13):
Ten?
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Oh TONI watch?
Speaker 1 (05:16):
My name is Joe Hale Thanny, Oh tony?
Speaker 2 (05:24):

Speaker 4 (05:29):
Which on which one's the doggers? The first one forty
six dollars he's got. It's a lot of doggers and
forty seven thefts larcenies.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Seventeen games remaining in the season. I gotta running, and
the show rolls and Matt, what's going on with banda?
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
As we asked David Vassi yesterday, Man, what's up with
band I was pitching?
Speaker 4 (05:53):
Well? It turns out he had a hairline fracture in
his left hand, but had nothing to do with his
bad pitching. Bad pitching had to do with the hairline fracture.
He hit a quote solid object, according to Dave Roberts
frustration after his outing the loss to the Cubs. Gave
up two runs three hits in one inning of Vass
punch something politics for Bonda, saying, well, you know he inherited.
(06:16):
They shouldn't have sent Walker Bueler out there in the
first place to spot punch a wall. If you're a pitcher,
if you're a surgeon, if you are a Chinese child
that works at Fox Con, you need the hand. Hands
pretty important. Let's not punch things with it. So Bonda
is out for the foreseeable future.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
The NFL's blowing up again. Oh yeah, it's this ratings talk.
Fred I guess.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Twenty one million viewers per game during the league's opening week,
making it the most watched week one on record. One
hundred and twenty three million saw at least part of
one game. It's the highest total for an opening week
since twenty nineteen. And I'm sure the ratings on the
radio were also through the roof.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
That's what we've hurt.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
You can hear Bill's Dolphins tomorrow right here on M
seventy LA Sports kickoff at five point fifteen.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Oh yeah, I just thought about that.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
We're advertising UCLAIU blah blah blah blah. We are advertising
Chargers v. Panthers ninety eight seven. Yeah, yeah, tomorrow we're flexed. Yeah, tomorrow,
we're flexed. We've got the Football Bill's v. Dolphins AFC showdown. Well,
that was a good problem written into the quick kits.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
That's fair. Speaking of the Dolphins, Tyreek Hill spoke with
the media today. Tyreek Hill, they haven't treated somebody like this,
said to oj.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Gone gone, gone gone.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
He got to go, man, Cause in that instant right there, like,
not only did he do treat me bad, right, you
know what I'm saying, he also treated my teammates with
you know, disrespect. You know, he had some crazy words
towards them. And they ain't even doing nothing, Like what
did they do to you? They just walking on the sidewalk.
So I don't know, like he gotta go, man, like
(08:03):
I and not too many times that te to say,
people gotta go.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
But right, you ow what gone all right?
Speaker 4 (08:13):
So a guy, So Tyreek, I just want to make
sure I have this right. Tyreek Hill does not believe
if in fact, this is a twenty seven year old,
a twenty seven year veteran of the force, maybe this
is his first transgression. As far as Tyreek knows, he
does not believe in second chances. I want to make
sure Tyreek wants does not want to give somebody a
second chance that maybe was a little aggressive in a
(08:37):
situation that did not call for that level of violence.
He does not want to give that person a second
tyreek you wow, what.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Gone?
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Gone gone?
Speaker 4 (08:51):
Yeah, because I'm you know, just figure you, much like
he did to his teammates as well. Maybe the unborn
child in the stomach of the woman that he punched
also did that individual wrong. That is very interesting position
to take for someone with his background.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Yeah, just ten and two do what they say. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
The Chargers are headed to Carolina against Ull Raggedy Andy,
Bryce Young and the Panthers. Ten am kickoff on ninety
eight seven. Chargers six and a half point road favorite.
The Rams are owing one and they're on the road again,
like Willie Nelson in Arizona taking on little tiny Kyler
Murray and his little tiny sports car.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
I gonna force it. Hey, he's open, I'll throw it
to him. I'm gonna force it because he was a
fourth pick. Gone, i gonna force it.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
There the Rams placing Steve Avilia and Puga Nakua and
Joe Noteboom on the ir Hey what.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
About Rusty Hart on his back at the.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Rusty Hard on defending DeShawn Watson said vote to Shaun's
DeShawn strongly denies.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
The allegations in the Jane Doe law shoot five Monday.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
We have asked him not to comment further. Wow, there's
a matter of works its way through the courts, but
we're comfortable he will ultimately be vindicated. Well, I'd like
to hear from DeShawn on that rusty.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Focus on football.
Speaker 5 (10:18):
I'm focused on cheaping the main thing, the main thing,
and that's when I walk into his building, focusing on
being the best quarterback can.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Be, on the game plan and try to be better
than we were last week.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
So we can get a wa Not sure if you
saw it, but there's a video circulating around that their
social media.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Offensive lineman on the ground, the Shawn offers his hand
to help him up.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Guy waves it away, kids up on his only he
knows he grabs his poozzo.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
That's what I mean. It's like, is that a hand?
Is that a poot?
Speaker 1 (10:47):
We talked about Indiana, UCLA, blah blah. We talked about
sc they got a bye week. Well, looks like Michigan
nine and a half point home favorite Michigan's at night
and they have eight. I jump on that all right,
I think I would too it. Sharon Moah Shummer Dodgers
and Cubbs first pitch at seven to ten. Don't forget
(11:08):
We're gonna talk to Jack Flarity next. Bobby Miller's on
the mound tonight. Jack Flarity Dodgers Ace from Burbank will
join us next. Dodger fans, get your game day meal
on at Shaky's Pizza Parler. What are your Shaky's pizza,
chicken and mojos right now at Shaky's dot com and
you could be enjoying it before first pitch. Jack Flarity
from Harvard Westlake, a hero to the people and a
(11:31):
breath of fresh air for that Dodger staff since the
trade deadline, will join us next.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
Betro saying Monday AM five seventy LA Sports, we are
live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. It is Dodgers versus
Cubs tonight before they get the day off tomorrow and
take a trip out to Atlanta as we get toward
the end of the regular season.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Here Pete, instead of pitching for Burbank High School or
Burrows High, took his talents on Heart Harvard Westlake and
Studio City. He was a Star La Times High School
Baseball Player of the Year twenty fourteen Gatorade Player of
the Year in the state of California at Harvard Westlake.
In four years he was thirty five and three and
the three teams that won cheated first round pick of
(12:17):
the Cardinals. Been in the Major since twenty seventeen. Now
he's with the Dodgers, bringing the edge that the Dodgers
need to the pitching staff. Tigers, that's who gave him
up at the trade deadline, and he's been fantastic in
his hometown. Five and one two point six twenty era
in seven starts on your Southern California Toyota celebrity hotline.
(12:38):
It is Jack Flaherty on the Petrosen Money Show. What's cracking, Jack?
How are you welcome to the show?
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Doing good? Guys doing good? Appreciate you having me?
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Oh, we appreciate you, Jack. It's got to be a
pretty good feeling.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
I know you're tempered because you guys are in a
pennant race and all and approaching the playoffs, but it's
got to be a pretty great thing to be here
in Los Angeles and performing the way you're performing. Did
you see this happening when you were in spring training
with Detroit this year?
Speaker 3 (13:08):
No, not at all. I didn't. You had asked me
this a year ago or a couple of months ago,
if I'd be here in this situation right now, I
don't really know what to that wouldn't have believed you.
But I couldn't ask for anything more.
Speaker 4 (13:21):
You've you know, Petros mentioned it. You start with the Cardinals,
you're now with the Dodgers, and obviously look Tigers and
Oriels two great organizations as well, but just kind of
those two in particular, especially in the National League, how
similar are they there's a bit of a rivalry because
of the playoffs, you know, kind of right when you
were there in twenty seventeen. And how different are they
because we do think of them as two of sort
(13:43):
of the charter franchises of the National League.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
I mean, both historic, both do things very similarly in
terms of just the attention to detail, the way they
go about their business, the way the players go about
their business. Just I mean organizations you're a part of.
You know, I was with Saint Louis for for so
long and the relationships I built there, the the people
I got to know the legends that that came through,
(14:09):
and you're able to meet and talk to and and
go over baseball with you. You get that same sense here.
I mean, uh, you know, you see you see oral
every day, and then you get the guys on the team,
and you get you get guys coming back who are
always are always kind of around. You get that same
that those same opportunities to just if you if you
(14:30):
want to talk baseball and and pick those guys' brains,
which is which is one of the things that's just
pretty awesome and special and not something I think, I
think something that uh, you know, maybe taking granted sometimes
they're just like and just don't really realize, like how
in awe of the situation that I am and how lucky.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
I am Baseball's look, it's just so different than anything else,
just because a one sixty two. What what's it like
when you're coming to the end of the season. You've
played one hundred and forty games and I know, as
a picture Loo you have to mentally prepare for each
and every one of those starts every fifth day, and
your Inde Pennant race in these last three weeks can
mean so much when you look how bunched up this is, Uh,
(15:10):
what is it like these last couple of weeks while
you are preparing for the postseason, but you're also playing
where every single game could determine how that postseason lays out.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
I mean, it's just there's just a lot of fun.
That's that's all you could ask for, you know. And you're, uh,
you're growing up and you watch these things and you
you talk about and you watch the playoffs and you
see these games and you see how much they mean
and how intense they are. I mean, it's it's pretty
much everything you could ask for. So you know, for me, like,
it's just it's a lot of fun getting getting the
(15:43):
opportunity to to do that and uh in playing these
big games, you know, and it's it's it's a lot
of emotion. They're intense, there's a lot going on. Uh,
they get stressful. But you know, I don't know what
more you could ask for other than being able to
have the opportunity to be in those games as opposed
to be on the flip side of it, where you're
(16:06):
planning your vacation and you already have everything planned out
and you're getting ready, you're just like waiting for the
season end, so you can, you know, get on a
plane and go on vacation somewhere.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yeah, one more start and it's the Maldives.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
That's not how it is this year for Jack Flaherty,
the great Dodger pitcher, and the he might feel lucky,
but the Dodgers should feel lucky that they were able
to acquire him in the trade deadline because he has
been fantastic for the Boys in Blue. And we mentioned
it earlier, a little bit of edge that you play with.
(16:41):
And you just talked about the intensity and the stress
and the emotion of the time out there. On a
day that you start and going through your your routine
and your preparations, do you have a pissed off attitude?
Do you wake up with a pissed off attitude and
kind of keep a skinned up face so speak.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
You know, I I don't.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
I can't say I wake up with a pissed off attitude.
I wake up with a little bit of edge, but
I kind of control it for most of the day
until uh, I kind of make my way in and
make my way into the into the field, and and
and and head on in and then it uh whether
you want to call it pissed off or I just
(17:24):
like hold that edge and and and kind of carry
it with me. It's kind of how it goes, and
it's I don't know, I just I just don't really
talk to anybody, just stay within my.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Own, my own little world.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
And and really really focus on that and just and
just being, you know. And for me, it's just controlling
what I can control, and that's that's all I can
That's all I can do. So but it's fine in
that that that fine line of where where I kind
of got to pitch at and uh, just the way
that I have to play this game and in order
to don't want to go about my business where it's
(17:58):
you know, everybody's different, everybody handles you know, their their
games completely different. And for me, it's just kind of
how I got to be. You.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
You had a dominant outing the last time out on
Sunday against Cleveland, and each of your other outings have
been great. I've been solid, but you said there was
still something more you were looking for, you know, something
and trying to deliver a little bit something more. Did
you find it in that start? Is that just the
way it broke and kind of how have you felt
thus far your time as a Dodger, because I'm sure
(18:26):
you know, fans are quite happy with how it's turned
out thus far.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Yeah, I mean I felt good, but you know, I
felt like I was going through these these phases and
starts where like things would go smooth, and then you
run into a long inning and then run into an
inning there usually in the sixth or just like it's
kind a way to just not finish it. And you know,
teams are putting good at that together, face a couple
of facing some good teams along the way, but those
(18:53):
are you know, you want to finish the sixth, get
into the seventh and do that when you're when you're throwing,
and so things just things just aligned a little bit,
a little bit more executed, executed better, just and and
part of that is getting into more of a just
a sinking and getting more in rhythm with with with
Will who's he's been awesome back there. He's been awesome
to work with in in Mark two, and all the
(19:15):
guys over there have just you know, it's it's just
been getting in more of a sink, which you know
might might take a little bit of a second took
a second in UH in Detroit UH as well, and
we had all the spring training to work through, and
then once we kind of got rolling, we got rolling,
and so I think it's just a little bit more
of that and then just you know technical, you know,
finding finding my slider a little bit more. I'd been
(19:37):
struggling with it for a couple of starts there, but
being able to bring that pitch more into the mix
was was a was a big key on someday.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Back in the Valley.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Jack Flaherty, I don't know if he's been back to
the valley since he's come back down joining us. Now,
you're gonna be one of the top two pitchers come October.
Of course obviously when the playoffs are here, that's got
to be a role. But you relish, is that the case?
Speaker 3 (20:02):
You know? It's uh, it's it's been a while since
I've been in that situation, which uh sucks to say
that it's been a while because I've I've been back
to the playoffs with a couple of different teams, but
I just haven't, uh haven't performed the way I've wanted
to to to be put and thrust into those spots.
So it's something that I'm I'm looking forward to, you know,
(20:23):
you know, you look back on a couple of times
that I've gotten the ability started, like they're just there.
It's so much fun. And you know, it's high pressure,
it's it's it's it's intense, it's uh, you know, I
described like you know, you're going into a heavyweight fight.
It's two teams going right at it. You're usually usually
going up against a stud on the other side. Who's
who's uh, who's taking them ount? So it's just, man,
(20:45):
it makes so much fun, and it's a you couldn't
you couldn't ask to be in a in a better
situation than to be able to take the ball and
and have the chance to go out in there and
compete as.
Speaker 4 (20:55):
As someone who knows what he's looking at a heck
of a lot better than than we do. What what
did it look like last night watching Yamamoto? Because even
in like all the other starts he had before he
got hurt, it didn't look like that.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
And you know, I've been lucky enough to watch him
throw throw bullpens and the ball explodes out of his hand.
But last night, I mean, you watched that first ending
in the way that he like freaking. He went at
guys and attacked them and they were really just on
their heels and didn't really have an answer for him.
It was, I was, I was fun to watch this
(21:29):
not something you see all the time. That's that's that's
just not something you see all the time. And you
know there's guys with stuff and guys who really have it,
and man, did he have his stuff last night, And
it was it was a lot of fun to watch,
like that was a that was that was that was
pretty cool. And you know, there's we all, we all
can do different things, but I think we're all kind
(21:50):
of sitting there watching him and he's still in ninety
three mile an hour splits and you know, he's still
in ninety seven to ninety eight, and so it was,
you know, kind of sitting there like, man, I wish
I could do that for an inning. You know, that'd be,
that'd be that'd be, that'd be something else.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
You do your own thing. Though Flaherty and the people
appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Now, I do have to say our show disseminates from
the city of Burbank, and there we have a heavy
Burbank contingent and people want to know why Harvard Westlake,
you know what happened with Burroughs or Burbank High the
Bulldogs and the Indians at the time.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Uh, you know, that's a that's probably a better question
for for my mom. I you know Burroughs and Burbank
and grew up right up the street from there. We
looked at a handful of schools, like I think originally
growing up, I was that's where it was going to be.
And uh no, Providence, I think, Uh no, it was
(22:43):
from what I think it was going to be Burrows
or Burbank and then uh but you know my own
works though. She worked over at Universal for a long time,
so I think she just wanted me a little a
little closer over there, so that she was in the
going back and forth all the time.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
The diplomatic answer. And do you remember the three teams
that beat you, that cheated to beat you in high
school when you were at West.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Oh that cheated to beat me? Okay, I know one
of them was Santa Barbara my freshman year. Uh, Santa
Barbara beat me. Lacentiavlenzia have beat me my software on.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
The water tower, the Tigers come on.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
I didn't lose my junior senior year. Pretty good to
the other one. Yeah, yeah, we had some good teams.
We had some really good teams. The other one that
I I don't know.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
We don't know either, Flarity, We don't know.
Speaker 4 (23:35):
Hey, it's it's lost to history. If we can bother
you for one more thing, I ask someone that grew
up in Burbank, ur Tim Kates right here, who does
Dodgers on Deck and Dodger talked regularly, born and raised
in Burbank. I don't want to speak for him, but
we talk a lot of Don Kuco's around here. Do
you have a favorite haunt that you like to that
you like to visit in Burbank that you could share.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
A favorite spot that I like to visit in Burbank. Oh,
that's it's crazy because when I got back, I drove
through the area and so much as so much has

Matt's got the dead guy birthday in the day to day,
it's a garage story. Give me that Kraft work there,
Kate Happy. It would have been eighty fifth to Charles
Geshk born in Cleveland, Xavier Bachelor's and Masters in math,
gets his PhD at Carnegie Mellon in Computer Science Times,
(26:44):
they was a change in computer science is supposed to math,
and he co authors the book The Design of Optimizing Computer,
a big freaking deal, one of the first to produce
well optimized code for a mini computer, and because of
its elegant design the quality of the generated code, the
compiler and book remains a classic in the compiler field,
(27:05):
so that for all the compilers, I enjoy the classics.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
The most compiler that gets the attention to Xerox. They're
just launched Park aforementioned Park, Palo Alto Research Center. He
heads out there, first project build a mainframe, which he did,
and then he builds the Xerox Alto, which is the
experimental workstation workstation another name for what we now call
a desktop to some degree. And then the Xerox the
(27:30):
Xerox Star workstation, the first commercial personal computer ever. Think
about the Macintosh or the IBM desktop, No, this was it,
the Xerox Star. It had a bitmap display, it was
window based, It had icons, it had folders, it had
a two button mouse, had Ethernet networking, print servers. Email
(27:54):
nineteen eighty one, our man Geshki had something called apront
sorry al gore. It connected them to El Segundo from
Silicon Valley from Palo Alta. Basically, the Internet. He was
work pals with this guy named John Warnock, a warlock,
and the pair developed what they called Innerpress Page Description
(28:16):
Language PDL before they called them PDFs. And they say, Xerox,
check this out. Pretty cool, right, Xerox was like eh,
So they said screw you. Guys were going home and
literally went home to Warnock's garage. Literally, this is the
garage story. Nineteen eighty two, they found a company named
after the creek that ran behind warnocks home, Adobe Creek.
(28:40):
Adobe Systems Interpress becomes PostScript, so you could see and
compose documents on a personal computer and it would look
exactly how it would appear when printed. We take it
for granted now, but prior to that, it would just
be a screen with a bunch of weird code. You
have to put print commands in there. Adobe Systems intererprese
Us became PostScript and Apple loved it. They flipped, they
(29:03):
wanted it. Steve Jobs offered them five million bucks the
moment he saw it. They said no thanks, and then
he kind of got into Steve Jobs threatening mode, said
we'll find then I won't use it unless I own it.
So they're like, all right, we'll give you nineteen percent.
He paid five times a multiplier of their valuation for
the chunk. He gets a five year license fee for PostScript,
(29:24):
and it makes Adobe the first company in Silicon Valley
history to be profitable in its first year. By eighty seven,
it was the industry standard printer language. More than four
hundred third party software programs licensing agreements with nineteen printer
companies could have been all xeroxes. But now they're too stupid.
Our man Geshki was the COO through ninety four, the
(29:46):
president through two thousand. He oversaw Adobe illustrator crazy story.
May twenty six, nineteen ninety two, Geshki pulling into work
parking lot, Mohammed Bukhari and Jack Saye kidnap him at gunpoint.
They make phone calls to his wife demanding a six
(30:07):
hundred and fifty thousand dollars ransom. Fbis in I. Gashki's
daughter drops off the six hundred and fifty k albu
Kari picks it up. Arrested, immediately leads him to a
bungalow in Hollister where Saya had been holding Gashki hostage.
Released unhurt, but had been chained up for four days,
(30:29):
the two kidnappers got life in prison.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Darius federal offense. Exactly right, our man Chuck.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
He said, Silicon Valley ain't hot like San Francisco, so
you might get shot through in the chest in San Francisco,
but they're gonna chag you up for four days like that.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
They died four days. Mohammed and Jack Chuck died in
twenty twenty one and eighty one Adobe, our man.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Chuck, exciting, right, it's time for it. Well, a lot
of kidnapping and death in Jamaica with Jamaican News.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
News.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
Yes, Matt to reggae Dancel of the early aughts when
you were doing rap rock.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
At k Rock helifan man representing Yo.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
Can you bring anything from your time at k Rocks
for the auc show? Well, it was twenty one years ago.
I don't think I have anything that I've held on
to this long that I'd be willing to give for
an auction.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
Today we celebrate what are you willing to give?
Speaker 3 (31:33):
Jeez?
Speaker 1 (31:34):
We celebrate a big Jamaican star, the Elephant Man, also
known as Elephant Man.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
Interesting you'd want to be called that?
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Yeah, well I figured that out. But his a real
name is O'Neill Brian and not Brian O'Neill.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
His real name is John Merritt. It's no, no, it's
O'Neill Brian. He's forty nine. Now.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
This elephant Man O'Neill Brian, not Brian O'Neil, is from
Seaview Gardens, Kingston, pretty darn gully as they say in Jamaica,
very ghetto of poor upbringing. And he started in a
dancehall group which I'm not familiar with, but they were
called the Scare Damn Crew. So they were out the
(32:16):
Scare dam or Scare them. So yeah, scare damn Yeah.
So you got the elephant Man in there. You got
a wolfman guy, you got a merman. Ah No, I
got it. But he came up because he was a
big star in the Scaredamn Crew, hence the name the
Elephant Man, known for his dyed yellow orange hair, his
(32:37):
climbing of stage props like Eddi Vedder. First international recognition
came in two thousand and four when Puma used his
song All Out for an Olympics commercial for a Jamaican sprinting.
He's worked with all kinds of people in America. Lil John, Twista,
(33:00):
He's known for his high kicks, his high knees, his
high energy and running style, and wearing of a tuxedo.
His big dalliance in the States was when the evil
sexual predator Puff Daddy signed him on Bad Boy and
Did He was on his album, and y Cleff was
(33:20):
on his album, and Busta Rhymes was on his album.
But that was all he really did in America. He
had to get back out in two thousand and seven.
Now you've seen Usain Bolt did his dance and referred
to his song when he won in two thousand and
eight in Beijing, the gold medal. So you know the
elephant met it's no slop.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Big deal man.
Speaker 4 (33:41):
Yeah, I mean, that's that's prime peak moment Jamaica and
I'm here.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
The Elephant Man in twenty twelve was charged with rape
and buggery.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Okay, we're mentioning, but the complainant.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Died so there was no one to charge him when
the court date came, and no one knows how she died,
so we're not gonna ask any questions here. I looked
it up, I said, and I looked at at the
Jamaican Observer. I looked it up in the Gleaner. I
looked it up in yard Hype and all three said
the same thing. No one knows how the complainant.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
Died, but she did.
Speaker 4 (34:18):
She did die, and so we're gonna go ahead and
just drop these charges against the elephant man. So as
far as we're concerned, moving forward. Elephant man, Hey, you're
good now, elephant.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
He was charged. Don't just don't sleep laying down. He
was charged with stealing electricity as well. Wow, now I'm
much more serious. If you see a cord leading out
of your house, plugged into the wall, you follow it.
The elephant man could be on the other side, right generator.
Speaker 4 (34:47):
Look, I'm already in peak tear, so I'm getting charged
five times a rate, and this son of a bitch
is running an extended.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
The middle of the night and turning it off. Yeah,
the elephant man was stealing electricity. I know I did
not consume this much electricity.
Speaker 2 (35:02):
What does happen? Where does this cord go?
Speaker 1 (35:03):
He still remains at large today, Jamaica's finest elephant man.
Not to be confused with Sean Merrick of British society. No,
nor trying to tap into that type of elephant man.
But I guess when you go, madamn crue. He's the elephant. Yeah,
and he is kind of he is kind of ugly.
(35:24):
He's got a big face, but nothing like Merrick. No, no, well,
I would hope not. Sen she doing for the PMS

Lawyer Lawrence Llewellen russy the bailiffs paper.
Speaker 4 (04:01):
Uh, concerned about the spread of germs due to people
sharing glasses and dippers in public drinking spaces. And I
didn't have the fountain back then, Yeah you ladle it out.
Invented the first paper cup. He called it Clean Cup
with a K K L E A N cup. Couldn't
(04:22):
figure out why wouldn't catch on. After five years of
barely breaking even and losing a little bit of money
on the clean Cup, he decided to just rename it
same paper cup, but he named it after a popular
line of toys, Dixie Dolls. Once he called it a
Dixie cup, they started using him intros.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Go figure, Oh it's Dixie Land, and I'll make my
stand in Northern Flags in south wind, flutter, quickets, everybody quickets.

Speaker 2 (05:41):
Seventeen games remaining in the season. I gotta running, and
the show rolls and Matt, what's going on with banda?
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
As we asked David Vassi yesterday, Man, what's up with
band I was pitching?
Speaker 4 (05:53):
Well? It turns out he had a hairline fracture in
his left hand, but had nothing to do with his
bad pitching. Bad pitching had to do with the hairline fracture.
He hit a quote solid object, according to Dave Roberts
frustration after his outing the loss to the Cubs. Gave
up two runs three hits in one inning of Vass
punch something politics for Bonda, saying, well, you know he inherited.
(06:16):
They shouldn't have sent Walker Bueler out there in the
first place to spot punch a wall. If you're a pitcher,
if you're a surgeon, if you are a Chinese child
that works at Fox Con, you need the hand. Hands
pretty important. Let's not punch things with it. So Bonda
is out for the foreseeable future.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
The NFL's blowing up again. Oh yeah, it's this ratings talk.
Fred I guess.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Twenty one million viewers per game during the league's opening week,
making it the most watched week one on record. One
hundred and twenty three million saw at least part of
one game. It's the highest total for an opening week
since twenty nineteen. And I'm sure the ratings on the
radio were also through the roof.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
That's what we've hurt.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
You can hear Bill's Dolphins tomorrow right here on M
seventy LA Sports kickoff at five point fifteen.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Oh yeah, I just thought about that.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
We're advertising UCLAIU blah blah blah blah. We are advertising
Chargers v. Panthers ninety eight seven. Yeah, yeah, tomorrow we're flexed. Yeah, tomorrow,
we're flexed. We've got the Football Bill's v. Dolphins AFC showdown. Well,
that was a good problem written into the quick kits.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
That's fair. Speaking of the Dolphins, Tyreek Hill spoke with
the media today. Tyreek Hill, they haven't treated somebody like this,
said to oj.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Gone gone, gone gone.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
He got to go, man, Cause in that instant right there, like,
not only did he do treat me bad, right, you
know what I'm saying, he also treated my teammates with
you know, disrespect. You know, he had some crazy words
towards them. And they ain't even doing nothing, Like what
did they do to you? They just walking on the sidewalk.
So I don't know, like he gotta go, man, like
(08:03):
I and not too many times that te to say,
people gotta go.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
But right, you ow what gone all right?
Speaker 4 (08:13):
So a guy, So Tyreek, I just want to make
sure I have this right. Tyreek Hill does not believe
if in fact, this is a twenty seven year old,
a twenty seven year veteran of the force, maybe this
is his first transgression. As far as Tyreek knows, he
does not believe in second chances. I want to make
sure Tyreek wants does not want to give somebody a
second chance that maybe was a little aggressive in a
(08:37):
situation that did not call for that level of violence.
He does not want to give that person a second
tyreek you wow, what.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Gone?
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Gone gone?
Speaker 4 (08:51):
Yeah, because I'm you know, just figure you, much like
he did to his teammates as well. Maybe the unborn
child in the stomach of the woman that he punched
also did that individual wrong. That is very interesting position
to take for someone with his background.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Yeah, just ten and two do what they say. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
The Chargers are headed to Carolina against Ull Raggedy Andy,
Bryce Young and the Panthers. Ten am kickoff on ninety
eight seven. Chargers six and a half point road favorite.
The Rams are owing one and they're on the road again,
like Willie Nelson in Arizona taking on little tiny Kyler
Murray and his little tiny sports car.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
I gonna force it. Hey, he's open, I'll throw it
to him. I'm gonna force it because he was a
fourth pick. Gone, i gonna force it.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
There the Rams placing Steve Avilia and Puga Nakua and
Joe Noteboom on the ir Hey what.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
About Rusty Hart on his back at the.

Rusty Hard on defending DeShawn Watson said vote to Shaun's
DeShawn strongly denies.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
The allegations in the Jane Doe law shoot five Monday.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
We have asked him not to comment further. Wow, there's
a matter of works its way through the courts, but
we're comfortable he will ultimately be vindicated. Well, I'd like
to hear from DeShawn on that rusty.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Focus on football.
Speaker 5 (10:18):
I'm focused on cheaping the main thing, the main thing,
and that's when I walk into his building, focusing on
being the best quarterback can.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Be, on the game plan and try to be better
than we were last week.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
So we can get a wa Not sure if you
saw it, but there's a video circulating around that their
social media.
Speaker 3 (10:34):

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Offensive lineman on the ground, the Shawn offers his hand
to help him up.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Guy waves it away, kids up on his only he
knows he grabs his poozzo.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
That's what I mean. It's like, is that a hand?
Is that a poot?
Speaker 1 (10:47):
We talked about Indiana, UCLA, blah blah. We talked about
sc they got a bye week. Well, looks like Michigan
nine and a half point home favorite Michigan's at night

I know you're tempered because you guys are in a
pennant race and all and approaching the playoffs, but it's
got to be a pretty great thing to be here
in Los Angeles and performing the way you're performing. Did
you see this happening when you were in spring training
with Detroit this year?
Speaker 3 (13:08):
No, not at all. I didn't. You had asked me
this a year ago or a couple of months ago,
if I'd be here in this situation right now, I
don't really know what to that wouldn't have believed you.
But I couldn't ask for anything more.
Speaker 4 (13:21):
You've you know, Petros mentioned it. You start with the Cardinals,
you're now with the Dodgers, and obviously look Tigers and
Oriels two great organizations as well, but just kind of
those two in particular, especially in the National League, how
similar are they there's a bit of a rivalry because
of the playoffs, you know, kind of right when you
were there in twenty seventeen. And how different are they
because we do think of them as two of sort
(13:43):
of the charter franchises of the National League.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
I mean, both historic, both do things very similarly in
terms of just the attention to detail, the way they
go about their business, the way the players go about
their business. Just I mean organizations you're a part of.
You know, I was with Saint Louis for for so
long and the relationships I built there, the the people
I got to know the legends that that came through,
(14:09):
and you're able to meet and talk to and and
go over baseball with you. You get that same sense here.
I mean, uh, you know, you see you see oral
every day, and then you get the guys on the team,
and you get you get guys coming back who are
always are always kind of around. You get that same
that those same opportunities to just if you if you
(14:30):
want to talk baseball and and pick those guys' brains,
which is which is one of the things that's just
pretty awesome and special and not something I think, I
think something that uh, you know, maybe taking granted sometimes
they're just like and just don't really realize, like how
in awe of the situation that I am and how lucky.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
I am Baseball's look, it's just so different than anything else,
just because a one sixty two. What what's it like
when you're coming to the end of the season. You've
played one hundred and forty games and I know, as
a picture Loo you have to mentally prepare for each
and every one of those starts every fifth day, and
your Inde Pennant race in these last three weeks can
mean so much when you look how bunched up this is, Uh,
(15:10):
what is it like these last couple of weeks while
you are preparing for the postseason, but you're also playing
where every single game could determine how that postseason lays out.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
I mean, it's just there's just a lot of fun.
That's that's all you could ask for, you know. And you're, uh,
you're growing up and you watch these things and you
you talk about and you watch the playoffs and you
see these games and you see how much they mean
and how intense they are. I mean, it's it's pretty
much everything you could ask for. So you know, for me, like,
it's just it's a lot of fun getting getting the
(15:43):
opportunity to to do that and uh in playing these
big games, you know, and it's it's it's a lot
of emotion. They're intense, there's a lot going on. Uh,
they get stressful. But you know, I don't know what
more you could ask for other than being able to
have the opportunity to be in those games as opposed
to be on the flip side of it, where you're
(16:06):
planning your vacation and you already have everything planned out
and you're getting ready, you're just like waiting for the
season end, so you can, you know, get on a
plane and go on vacation somewhere.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yeah, one more start and it's the Maldives.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
That's not how it is this year for Jack Flaherty,
the great Dodger pitcher, and the he might feel lucky,
but the Dodgers should feel lucky that they were able
to acquire him in the trade deadline because he has
been fantastic for the Boys in Blue. And we mentioned
it earlier, a little bit of edge that you play with.
(16:41):
And you just talked about the intensity and the stress
and the emotion of the time out there. On a
day that you start and going through your your routine
and your preparations, do you have a pissed off attitude?
Do you wake up with a pissed off attitude and
kind of keep a skinned up face so speak.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
You know, I I don't.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
I can't say I wake up with a pissed off attitude.
I wake up with a little bit of edge, but
I kind of control it for most of the day
until uh, I kind of make my way in and
make my way into the into the field, and and
and and head on in and then it uh whether
you want to call it pissed off or I just
(17:24):
like hold that edge and and and kind of carry
it with me. It's kind of how it goes, and
it's I don't know, I just I just don't really
talk to anybody, just stay within my.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Own, my own little world.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
And and really really focus on that and just and
just being, you know. And for me, it's just controlling
what I can control, and that's that's all I can
That's all I can do. So but it's fine in
that that that fine line of where where I kind
of got to pitch at and uh, just the way
that I have to play this game and in order
to don't want to go about my business where it's
(17:58):
you know, everybody's different, everybody handles you know, their their
games completely different. And for me, it's just kind of
how I got to be. You.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
You had a dominant outing the last time out on
Sunday against Cleveland, and each of your other outings have
been great. I've been solid, but you said there was
still something more you were looking for, you know, something
and trying to deliver a little bit something more. Did
you find it in that start? Is that just the
way it broke and kind of how have you felt
thus far your time as a Dodger, because I'm sure
(18:26):
you know, fans are quite happy with how it's turned
out thus far.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Yeah, I mean I felt good, but you know, I
felt like I was going through these these phases and
starts where like things would go smooth, and then you
run into a long inning and then run into an
inning there usually in the sixth or just like it's
kind a way to just not finish it. And you know,
teams are putting good at that together, face a couple
of facing some good teams along the way, but those
(18:53):
are you know, you want to finish the sixth, get
into the seventh and do that when you're when you're throwing,
and so things just things just aligned a little bit,
a little bit more executed, executed better, just and and
part of that is getting into more of a just
a sinking and getting more in rhythm with with with
Will who's he's been awesome back there. He's been awesome
to work with in in Mark two, and all the
(19:15):
guys over there have just you know, it's it's just
been getting in more of a sink, which you know
might might take a little bit of a second took
a second in UH in Detroit UH as well, and
we had all the spring training to work through, and
then once we kind of got rolling, we got rolling,
and so I think it's just a little bit more
of that and then just you know technical, you know,
finding finding my slider a little bit more. I'd been
(19:37):
struggling with it for a couple of starts there, but
being able to bring that pitch more into the mix
was was a was a big key on someday.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Back in the Valley.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Jack Flaherty, I don't know if he's been back to
the valley since he's come back down joining us. Now,
you're gonna be one of the top two pitchers come October.
Of course obviously when the playoffs are here, that's got
to be a role. But you relish, is that the case?
Speaker 3 (20:02):
You know? It's uh, it's it's been a while since
I've been in that situation, which uh sucks to say
that it's been a while because I've I've been back
to the playoffs with a couple of different teams, but
I just haven't, uh haven't performed the way I've wanted
to to to be put and thrust into those spots.
So it's something that I'm I'm looking forward to, you know,
(20:23):
you know, you look back on a couple of times
that I've gotten the ability started, like they're just there.
It's so much fun. And you know, it's high pressure,
it's it's it's it's intense, it's uh, you know, I
described like you know, you're going into a heavyweight fight.
It's two teams going right at it. You're usually usually
going up against a stud on the other side. Who's
who's uh, who's taking them ount? So it's just, man,
(20:45):
it makes so much fun, and it's a you couldn't
you couldn't ask to be in a in a better
situation than to be able to take the ball and
and have the chance to go out in there and
compete as.
Speaker 4 (20:55):
As someone who knows what he's looking at a heck
of a lot better than than we do. What what
did it look like last night watching Yamamoto? Because even
in like all the other starts he had before he
got hurt, it didn't look like that.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
And you know, I've been lucky enough to watch him
throw throw bullpens and the ball explodes out of his hand.
But last night, I mean, you watched that first ending
in the way that he like freaking. He went at
guys and attacked them and they were really just on
their heels and didn't really have an answer for him.
It was, I was, I was fun to watch this
(21:29):
not something you see all the time. That's that's that's
just not something you see all the time. And you
know there's guys with stuff and guys who really have it,
and man, did he have his stuff last night, And
it was it was a lot of fun to watch,
like that was a that was that was that was
pretty cool. And you know, there's we all, we all
can do different things, but I think we're all kind
(21:50):
of sitting there watching him and he's still in ninety
three mile an hour splits and you know, he's still
in ninety seven to ninety eight, and so it was,
you know, kind of sitting there like, man, I wish
I could do that for an inning. You know, that'd be,
that'd be that'd be, that'd be something else.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
You do your own thing. Though Flaherty and the people
appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Now, I do have to say our show disseminates from
the city of Burbank, and there we have a heavy
Burbank contingent and people want to know why Harvard Westlake,
you know what happened with Burroughs or Burbank High the
Bulldogs and the Indians at the time.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Uh, you know, that's a that's probably a better question
for for my mom. I you know Burroughs and Burbank
and grew up right up the street from there. We
looked at a handful of schools, like I think originally
growing up, I was that's where it was going to be.
And uh no, Providence, I think, Uh no, it was
(22:43):
from what I think it was going to be Burrows
or Burbank and then uh but you know my own
works though. She worked over at Universal for a long time,
so I think she just wanted me a little a
little closer over there, so that she was in the
going back and forth all the time.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
The diplomatic answer. And do you remember the three teams
that beat you, that cheated to beat you in high
school when you were at West.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Oh that cheated to beat me? Okay, I know one
of them was Santa Barbara my freshman year. Uh, Santa
Barbara beat me. Lacentiavlenzia have beat me my software on.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
The water tower, the Tigers come on.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
I didn't lose my junior senior year. Pretty good to
the other one. Yeah, yeah, we had some good teams.
We had some really good teams. The other one that
I I don't know.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
We don't know either, Flarity, We don't know.
Speaker 4 (23:35):
Hey, it's it's lost to history. If we can bother
you for one more thing, I ask someone that grew
up in Burbank, ur Tim Kates right here, who does
Dodgers on Deck and Dodger talked regularly, born and raised
in Burbank. I don't want to speak for him, but
we talk a lot of Don Kuco's around here. Do
you have a favorite haunt that you like to that
you like to visit in Burbank that you could share.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
A favorite spot that I like to visit in Burbank. Oh,
that's it's crazy because when I got back, I drove
through the area and so much as so much has
changed over there and even like into like into downtown Burbank.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
Uh Corner Cottage is still there, Flarity.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
Yeah, growing up, growing up, we used to go to
a little spot called Market City Capfe that my mom
used always sure to take us too. And uh that's
where we uh, that's what we did a bunch of things.
We'd have a bunch of dinners.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
It was it's fine's now.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
Yeah, that's where we used to go. That's where we
used to go growing up.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
There we go Doughnut. Prince is still there, so yeah,
sure Prince is definitely still there.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Way, Jack, it's been great to have you here in
Los Angeles and wonderful watching your perform. Have a great
rest of the season and a great postseason. Remain healthy
and thanks for joining us today. We sure appreciate it.

Matt's got the dead guy birthday in the day to day,
it's a garage story. Give me that Kraft work there,
Kate Happy. It would have been eighty fifth to Charles
Geshk born in Cleveland, Xavier Bachelor's and Masters in math,
gets his PhD at Carnegie Mellon in Computer Science Times,
(26:44):
they was a change in computer science is supposed to math,
and he co authors the book The Design of Optimizing Computer,
a big freaking deal, one of the first to produce
well optimized code for a mini computer, and because of
its elegant design the quality of the generated code, the
compiler and book remains a classic in the compiler field,
(27:05):
so that for all the compilers, I enjoy the classics.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
The most compiler that gets the attention to Xerox. They're
just launched Park aforementioned Park, Palo Alto Research Center. He
heads out there, first project build a mainframe, which he did,
and then he builds the Xerox Alto, which is the
experimental workstation workstation another name for what we now call
a desktop to some degree. And then the Xerox the
(27:30):
Xerox Star workstation, the first commercial personal computer ever. Think
about the Macintosh or the IBM desktop, No, this was it,
the Xerox Star. It had a bitmap display, it was
window based, It had icons, it had folders, it had
a two button mouse, had Ethernet networking, print servers. Email
(27:54):
nineteen eighty one, our man Geshki had something called apront
sorry al gore. It connected them to El Segundo from
Silicon Valley from Palo Alta. Basically, the Internet. He was
work pals with this guy named John Warnock, a warlock,
and the pair developed what they called Innerpress Page Description
(28:16):
Language PDL before they called them PDFs. And they say, Xerox,
check this out. Pretty cool, right, Xerox was like eh,
So they said screw you. Guys were going home and
literally went home to Warnock's garage. Literally, this is the
garage story. Nineteen eighty two, they found a company named
after the creek that ran behind warnocks home, Adobe Creek.
(28:40):
Adobe Systems Interpress becomes PostScript, so you could see and
compose documents on a personal computer and it would look
exactly how it would appear when printed. We take it
for granted now, but prior to that, it would just
be a screen with a bunch of weird code. You
have to put print commands in there. Adobe Systems intererprese
Us became PostScript and Apple loved it. They flipped, they
(29:03):
wanted it. Steve Jobs offered them five million bucks the
moment he saw it. They said no thanks, and then
he kind of got into Steve Jobs threatening mode, said
we'll find then I won't use it unless I own it.
So they're like, all right, we'll give you nineteen percent.
He paid five times a multiplier of their valuation for
the chunk. He gets a five year license fee for PostScript,
(29:24):
and it makes Adobe the first company in Silicon Valley
history to be profitable in its first year. By eighty seven,
it was the industry standard printer language. More than four
hundred third party software programs licensing agreements with nineteen printer
companies could have been all xeroxes. But now they're too stupid.
Our man Geshki was the COO through ninety four, the
(29:46):
president through two thousand. He oversaw Adobe illustrator crazy story.
May twenty six, nineteen ninety two, Geshki pulling into work
parking lot, Mohammed Bukhari and Jack Saye kidnap him at gunpoint.
They make phone calls to his wife demanding a six
(30:07):
hundred and fifty thousand dollars ransom. Fbis in I. Gashki's
daughter drops off the six hundred and fifty k albu
Kari picks it up. Arrested, immediately leads him to a
bungalow in Hollister where Saya had been holding Gashki hostage.
Released unhurt, but had been chained up for four days,
(30:29):
the two kidnappers got life in prison.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Darius federal offense. Exactly right, our man Chuck.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
He said, Silicon Valley ain't hot like San Francisco, so
you might get shot through in the chest in San Francisco,
but they're gonna chag you up for four days like that.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
They died four days. Mohammed and Jack Chuck died in
twenty twenty one and eighty one Adobe, our man.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Chuck, exciting, right, it's time for it. Well, a lot
of kidnapping and death in Jamaica with Jamaican News.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
News.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
Yes, Matt to reggae Dancel of the early aughts when
you were doing rap rock.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
At k Rock helifan man representing Yo.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
Can you bring anything from your time at k Rocks
for the auc show? Well, it was twenty one years ago.
I don't think I have anything that I've held on
to this long that I'd be willing to give for
an auction.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
Today we celebrate what are you willing to give?
Speaker 3 (31:33):
Jeez?
Speaker 1 (31:34):
We celebrate a big Jamaican star, the Elephant Man, also
known as Elephant Man.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
Interesting you'd want to be called that?
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Yeah, well I figured that out. But his a real
name is O'Neill Brian and not Brian O'Neill.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
His real name is John Merritt. It's no, no, it's
O'Neill Brian. He's forty nine. Now.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
This elephant Man O'Neill Brian, not Brian O'Neil, is from
Seaview Gardens, Kingston, pretty darn gully as they say in Jamaica,
very ghetto of poor upbringing. And he started in a
dancehall group which I'm not familiar with, but they were
called the Scare Damn Crew. So they were out the
(32:16):
Scare dam or Scare them. So yeah, scare damn Yeah.
So you got the elephant Man in there. You got
a wolfman guy, you got a merman. Ah No, I
got it. But he came up because he was a
big star in the Scaredamn Crew, hence the name the
Elephant Man, known for his dyed yellow orange hair, his
(32:37):
climbing of stage props like Eddi Vedder. First international recognition
came in two thousand and four when Puma used his
song All Out for an Olympics commercial for a Jamaican sprinting.
He's worked with all kinds of people in America. Lil John, Twista,
(33:00):
He's known for his high kicks, his high knees, his
high energy and running style, and wearing of a tuxedo.
His big dalliance in the States was when the evil
sexual predator Puff Daddy signed him on Bad Boy and
Did He was on his album, and y Cleff was
(33:20):
on his album, and Busta Rhymes was on his album.
But that was all he really did in America. He
had to get back out in two thousand and seven.
Now you've seen Usain Bolt did his dance and referred
to his song when he won in two thousand and
eight in Beijing, the gold medal. So you know the
elephant met it's no slop.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Big deal man.
Speaker 4 (33:41):
Yeah, I mean, that's that's prime peak moment Jamaica and
I'm here.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
The Elephant Man in twenty twelve was charged with rape
and buggery.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Okay, we're mentioning, but the complainant.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Died so there was no one to charge him when
the court date came, and no one knows how she died,
so we're not gonna ask any questions here. I looked
it up, I said, and I looked at at the
Jamaican Observer. I looked it up in the Gleaner. I
looked it up in yard Hype and all three said
the same thing. No one knows how the complainant.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
Died, but she did.
Speaker 4 (34:18):
She did die, and so we're gonna go ahead and
just drop these charges against the elephant man. So as
far as we're concerned, moving forward. Elephant man, Hey, you're
good now, elephant.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
He was charged. Don't just don't sleep laying down. He
was charged with stealing electricity as well. Wow, now I'm
much more serious. If you see a cord leading out
of your house, plugged into the wall, you follow it.
The elephant man could be on the other side, right generator.
Speaker 4 (34:47):
Look, I'm already in peak tear, so I'm getting charged
five times a rate, and this son of a bitch
is running an extended.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
The middle of the night and turning it off. Yeah,
the elephant man was stealing electricity. I know I did
not consume this much electricity.
Speaker 2 (35:02):
What does happen? Where does this cord go?
Speaker 1 (35:03):
He still remains at large today, Jamaica's finest elephant man.
Not to be confused with Sean Merrick of British society. No,
nor trying to tap into that type of elephant man.
But I guess when you go, madamn crue. He's the elephant. Yeah,
and he is kind of he is kind of ugly.
(35:24):
He's got a big face, but nothing like Merrick. No, no, well,
I would hope not. Sen she doing for the PMS

Speaker 4 (36:35):
Yeah, but the Padres, oh yeah, four and a half
games over the punts.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Yeah, but Bobby Miller on the mound.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
And he's two and four with a seven seven nine
earned run average, so they would have to score eight
runs if Bobby stays consistent with what he's allowed this year.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
Bah, fire up the song, Enjoy the night. He's gotta
play John Wick.
Speaker 1 (37:00):

Speaker 2 (37:05):
Death, dismemberment, Eastern Block Mafia.
Speaker 1 (37:16):
As long as Bobby Miller doesn't kill John Wick's dog
right before the first we're good.
Speaker 2 (37:22):
Enjoy the game.
