trosin money, Rose in money Ros, I don't crack euse

Speaker 2 (00:41):
You're going back up on the hill.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
Uh why right over there there's some people smoking weed.
You have two choices to control your mind or to
let your mind control you.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
Go ahead, out of it. Petros had Money AM five
seventy one Sports Live Everywhere on the iHeartRadio at your
home of Mister fifty to fifty first fifty to fifty
player in Major League Baseball history, Shohaled Tani did it
last night with the Dodgers. He will add it to
his fifty to fifty total from the Galpin Motors broadcast booth.
You will hear it beginning at seven to ten PM
against the Rockies. Dodgers on deck coming up at six.

(01:21):
David Vesse joined us in the very last segment, gave
us some insight to what it was like to be
on the bus, on the plane, in the dugout, in
the clubhouse after what some called the greatest performance in
the history of baseball by an individual in a regular
season game. So make sure you tune in less than
an hour from now for Dodgers on deck is they

(01:41):
will certainly revisit that and push things forward now that
the Dodgers are officially in the playoffs.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Tomorrow, we got UCLA at LSU kick off at twelve
thirty here on Am by seventy. Don't miss that because
if you do, and you say something and I beat you,
it's going to be bad.

Speaker 3 (01:58):
Gotta be bad.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
We're in LA but not tomorrow when we're going to
be in the Bayou. Matt is going to be in Pittsburgh.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
It's the theme of the UCLA season.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Chargers at Steelers Dodgeorge kickoff at ten am at ALL
ninety eight seven. That should be a very interesting matchup.
And then Map will come home from his long East
Coast Lesionaire's disease swing. At least Happy State fought hard
for you last night.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
Glad we made our way up to boom.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Her Montana Rowland looked like he was being held hostage.
Man looked like you guys had him luckily had him
headcuffed to a like some kind of heating system.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
IRV. I did welcome him to boom by saying, hey,
you're driving home her.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
Okay, it's no time for the final hour. Fun fat
in effect, Yeah, we're three fun fun fact.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
I did not know this. I assumed there was a
downtown turns out in Charlotte. Downtown is, in fact uptown.
That is where we are staying. The uptown I don't
know what this is. A Hiat or a Weston or something,
and I just assumed we were uptown. But because the
city center is on a hill and is the highest
elevation in the city of Charlotte, they call there what

(03:19):
we would call downtown uptown.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
Well, don't sleep in the subway, Matt, I.

Speaker 3 (03:24):
Will try not to. I would imagine it's safer than
our metro system back home.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Don't stand in the pouring rain. No, now you get
stabbed of the barbecue skewer out there. That's right, all right,
it's time for quickts, somethms, quick hits.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
I'm nig it quick y'all.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Damn Dodgers, they're good. They're at home to night versus
the Rockies. First pitch of seven to ten. Don't worry
about the fact they have no pitching. Everything's great.

Speaker 3 (03:53):
It's all right. That's to worry about another day today.
It's great.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
They shut Dave Roberts awake to do Patrick this morning
on a five sevent and he was asked what he
thinks about his Dodgers team's chances. Was this the year
the World Series guarantee? Was that last year? Last year?

Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yeah, latinos two years ago.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Two years ago. So here's another World Series chance talk
with Dad Patrick and Dave Roberts. It is called the
Dance of the Harvest.

Speaker 3 (04:20):
How do you feel about your team this year?

Speaker 4 (04:23):
I like our team. It's certainly with with the potential roster.
It's not the talent how we envisioned it. And I
think that any team that's contending for the World Series
this year probably to say the same thing. And I
do know that with baseball, it's not always the most
talented team you know that that that wins the World Series.

(04:47):
And I think for our club, Dan and I and
I say, this is talent. Is the floor for our
ball club to have a lot of talent, and our
fight is going to be the So I expect our
ceiling to be significantly raised this postseason.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
All right, I'm.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
Gonna fight the ceiling. I'm gonna do don't dance on it.
Get up there, fight you, mister ceiling show.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
Hey, watch continues even though he's past fifty to fifty. Hi,
my name is Joe hal Dunny.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Oh tony watch.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
He's sitting on fifty one to fifty one, nine games left.
The fan in Miami who got the fiftieth reportedly is
keeping the ball.

Speaker 3 (05:35):
Yeah, take note people that fan caught the ball and
ran did not wait for some stadium employee. It's like, oh,
we're gonna wait after all the fu I'm running, I
have it. It's watermarked. I'm selling this s go away.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
Could be about a half mil if he were to
sell it. I don't like the people. I read an article,
Oh he's losing money whatever. Yeah, they want you to
deal with the establishment right away.

Speaker 3 (06:02):
Yeah, or the you know, it's a shame that shohe
has robbed of that priceless moment that he doesn't get
to keep the ball. Whatever, you guy, hit seven hundred
million bucks, It's gonna change this person's life. You get
half a million dollars, you hit it into the stands, Yes,
belongs to the person that caught it. Your expectation to
get it back should be low, should be zero. Lets

(06:23):
you want to give me a half a million bucks,
then I'll flip it to you.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
How about a catcher outfielder Dalton Rushing being named by
the Dodgers the twenty twenty four branch Ricky Minor League
Player of the Year, left handed pitcher Jackson Farris and
the twenty twenty four branch Ricky Minor League Pitcher of
the Year. Uh, those are all Kates, farm Report Staples.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
Yeah, where are they? Why aren't they up here in
September call ups? Kate's at the hell? I thought Rushing
was going to show up like a week ago.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Like baby Jess. Is no room in the end for
Dalton Rushing. You got too many outfielders, Tommy Emmon, Andy
pa Has I mean, James Outman's not even here. How
are you going to bring up Dalton rushing and not
bring up James Outman ahead of him. Well, he can
say hi to Dion while they're both hanging on the cross.
You Celia is in Baton Rouge tomorrow to take on LSU.
Twelve thirty kick on five seventy great, let me look

(07:10):
at the spread YEP twenty six and a half.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
Twenty six and a half. Do they think this is
University of Central Louisiana, Well.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
They're not bad now. Number eleven USC is in ann
Arbor tomorrow to take on Michigan. We had the college
arm in the ann Arbor. Corrections and retractions on me.

Speaker 3 (07:33):
Oh, therections.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
It's twenty two and a half. Twenty two and a half.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
For sure. Do the Trojans are a four point favorite
in Michigan. They're going with Alex Orgy at the quarterback
as David Davis Warren has been pinched.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
Original spread was ten and a half down to four
and a half.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
Look at that Chargers are two and oh in the berg.
You're taking on the Steelers on Sunday ten am. Kick
on night. Matt Daniel, Jeremiah and Shennon Farron on the call.
The Chargers are a one and a half point road
favorite Justin Herbert has a bad high ankle sprain.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
What yeah, not great. He you know, was out of
practice today and he addressed the media and he was
very forthcoming, saying that he's still trying to work through it,
that it's a lot of pain, and as we discussed
a little bit earlier, I don't know it will truly
be a game time decision, and it's probably going to

(08:30):
be to some degree up to him. But I do
think different than last year when Brandon Staley, Herbert's like, yeah,
I got cracked ribs, I don't care, I'm going to
play against Jacksonville, and it was a mess because Staley's
not stepping in front of him. I do think if
there is someone that can say, hey man, just take
the week off whatever, take the week off Justin fields
and the Steelers are averaging thirteen points per game, Let's

(08:52):
see if we can win a game running the ball,
playing good defense and you got a high ankle sprain.
I don't think any other head coach, had they hired
you know, the next hot assistant, would be able to
do that. But maybe Horball is a guy that can
because I would just as I would just assume that
Herbert's gonna say, yeah, I'm fine, shoot it up, tape
it up, let's go.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Here's harball.

Speaker 5 (09:12):
We're gonna through the ankle from the from the game
on Sunday.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
The possibility that he doesn't that he doesn't play, is
that it's possibility.

Speaker 5 (09:20):
Any mind, Crystal Ball, expect him. It's getting better every day.
Last I was just sitting meeting with him, said he
was feeling feeling much better and good today.

Speaker 3 (09:32):
Who would if you can't go? Who would? Who would
start with to be Taylor? Would it be?

Speaker 1 (09:36):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (09:38):
Uh?

Speaker 5 (09:39):
Right now it's Easton.

Speaker 4 (09:41):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (09:42):
But the you're we're gonna be way over the the
legal limit of what ifs of if this, if that?

Speaker 3 (09:51):
Okay, I got that one from him today too, limit
of what is step in and stop him from playing?
And he's like that, just you know, come on, though hypotheticals.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
I did not know what the legal limit was. But
now that we know, that's right. The Rams are zero
and two. They take on the Niners at one and one.
They're a six and a half point underdog. Both teams
are banged up. McCaffrey, Deebo Pooka, Nakua, Cooper Cup all out,
and George Kittle says, well, if those guys aren't playing,
I'm questionable.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
And Derek Coe, you think you have an injury list
look at us?

Speaker 1 (10:22):
Yeah, probably two. Derek Carr was fined fourteen g's by
the NFL today for his post touchdown celebration puzzo grab.
He did a Michael Jackson dance move. Not penalized on
the play, but the league was like, hey, hey, we
saw that.

Speaker 3 (10:35):
Can't do that. Can't grab your poots and shake your leg.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
But he is, uh, he is playing pretty well and
so are the Saints. Caitlin Clark continued last night in Washington,
DC to wow people. The Mystics hosted Clark in the
Indiana Fever and they set a single game WNBA attendance
record of twenty thousand, seven hundred eleven. I think the
fever the Fever lost by one.

Speaker 3 (10:58):
Yeah. Are they in the playoffs yet? Is that a
playoff game?

Speaker 1 (11:01):
Or is that Yeah, they're closing in.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
That's the I apologize, Sarah Spain. I have not been
listening to the top of the hour updates. I should
know that Speck.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
I stop watching when Angel Rescott hurt, so I'm out.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
Oh was she out.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
When did she get hurt?

Speaker 2 (11:15):
Oh, come on, you guys don't know she got hurt
like a few weeks ago.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
I thought she like broke the record for rebounds or
something self rebounds. Well that she locked up in like may.
This is like overall, we are your home.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
A mister fifty fifties showing out Tony on the Dodgers.
Say it again, mister f fifties showing out Tony and
the Dodgers. A quick diversion.

Speaker 3 (11:38):
Play the hits, guys, play the hits.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
Half one report coming up. Next Dodger game coming up,
Moroco Casino, Dodgers on deck with Kates at six, Got.

Speaker 3 (11:53):
Trust Some Money, AM five seventy Ela Sports for Live
Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. We got Dodgers Rockies coming
up at seven a clock. Dave Roberts Autograph Jersey Up

La dot Com. Waterforla dot Com, take a brief survey
sharing what you've learned on smart water use That is

(12:15):
water for La dot Com. That's how you win the jersey. Tomorrow,
UCLA LSU at LSU Sunday Chargers v. Steelers on Alt
ninety eight point seven.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
All right, Matt. The F one report is powered by
the risk on three sixty Global Success Conference taking place
following F one weekend at the real Las Vegas. Secure
your spot at risk on three sixty dot com. One
of the better races of the season, the Aussie kid
Oscar Piastreet took the check and flag through the tight

(12:50):
streets of Baku on Sunday, beaten out Little Chuck Leclair
for his second career Grand Prix win. Young Oscar trailed
the poll center in the early stages and the fifty
one lap affair, but overtook him shortly after. The front
runners took their only pit stops, and they were joined
by Cheko Perez and eventually Leclaire's teammate, the smooth operator

(13:12):
Carlos Signs, creating a tense four way scrap over the
final laps of the race. It was a script we've
never seen before, Matt, Or maybe we have. The last
two races have been characterized by compelling battles between Ferrari
and McLaren, each team taking one victory. At Monza was
Lil Chuck who made the one stop strategy work for

(13:34):
Ferrari and hold off Piastre from their historic win in
front of the home country to foci. Piastre returned to
favor on Sunday at Baku. Leclair led from pole this time,
but saw Piastre brilliantly overtake him with a dive bomb
move going into turn one on lap twenty of the
fifty one. It was pretty remarkable the Australian attacked for

(13:56):
the lead in just moments after he was told by
his race engineer to look after his tires and that
opened the door for his second Grand pre win. After that,
he definitely defended p one on several occasions before finally
gaining a bit of breathing room as Leclaire's tires began
to fade out, pushing him back back into the clutches
of Perez and Signs, who battled for the final spot

(14:19):
on the podium. It was on the penultimate lap, which
is word you like to use, when the final drama ensued.
Check Operez, the Mexican made an unsuccessful move on Leclaire,
whose defense pushed the Mexican driver back wheeled a wheel
with Signs. They came together spectacularly on the rundown turn three,

(14:41):
colliding and putting both into the concrete wall and ending
the races. And this one's not over yet. We're heading
into the wall at high speed signs and Perez mag
a Elisena high speed.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
Whipsuit a bid man whip Did she crazed her hands?

Speaker 3 (15:02):
What happened there? Oh? Okay here, but I don't kidding.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
Both drivers looked at each other. That's the cause of
the mishap, Many pointing the finger at Checko because of
his determination to hold the racing line. That's radio fan,
it was unfair. Checko. The Great Altapatio was enjoying his
strongest weekend since Race five in China, having outperformed his
teammate for stopping all weekend, and was looking to end

(15:33):
his eleven race run without a podium. Before the crash.
The race would end under a virtual safety card, Piastree
taking the win, Leclaire capturing p two, and the curiously
odd looking George Russell failing up once again to get
a very fortunate podium, finished with the silver arrow Mercedes
A podium.

Speaker 3 (15:52):
You know, take it anyway we can get it these days.
Spitz bumps at.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
Least sprat sprite. Speaking of Brits, the sprite like Lando Norris,
who started in P. Fifteen after getting knocked down in
Q one, would move up for an opportunistic P four finish,
having run down and passing Mad Max for stopping in
the late stages of the race. Now his P five
for stopping's finish for Red Bull means that he's just

(16:18):
one podium finish over the last five races.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
Right, don't give me, you guys, give me this snagy. Okay,
I'm trying to rescue. What's up?

Speaker 1 (16:28):
Take Max with just pointed out the facts. Lando has
closed the championship gap to fifty nine points with seven
Grand Prix and three sprints remaining. And for Little Chuck,
he failed to win from Poland Baku for the fourth
consecutive year. He's only one win from poll in the
last fifteen starts, that one being at Monaco, very processional

(16:51):
early this year. Well, we're not here to point figures.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
He's the Dodgers of F one.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Just the fact that's true. P one and we lose it.

Speaker 3 (17:04):
P one and we lose.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
It's the fact that you suck from pole. You got
to come up from behind. Is that what the Dodgers
are doing this year?

Speaker 3 (17:11):
Wait a minute, I want to make sure I got
that right. You suck pole and come from behind.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
Correct.

Speaker 3 (17:17):
That sounds like something for the Petross and Money Show.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
And a freak off. Give me ten cases of baby oil.
Stat Fernando Alonso would hold on to p. Six and
his Aston Martin, once again outclassing his winey voiced Canadian teammate,
the incredibly unlikable Lance Stroll. Oh it's so ridiculous. What
the hell happened? You're a whitey bitch, Lance, and everybody

(17:40):
knows it.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
You crash.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
The Williams of Alex alban and rookie Franco Coleo Pinto
would take p. Seven and eight for the Argentinian Colombino.
He scores his first career points and only his surrect
second career start. Franco has scored more points in two
races than is Williams, redesssor Logan Sergeant scored in the
twenty twenty three and twenty four seasons combined.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
Hey, all right, come on, we got we gotta point
that out the bad Americas. Listen, that's old s. We
don't need to. The logo's going to get another chance.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
The main shift in this scar. Maybe this has been
a remarkably unpredictable season, and the shift is McLaren taking
the lead in the constructor's standings for the first time
in a decade. They land in Singapore with a twenty
point buffer over Red Bull and a driver pair ready
to give their all. Now Matt fat Zach's living life

(18:34):
Large TAF Time Forever. The Singapore Grand Prix is an
instantly recognizable event, giving the amazing location of racing through
the city streets at night. Skyscrapers towering over the circuit
provide a stunning back drop, but down on the track itself,
it's one of the most challenging events for the drivers.
Challenge comes from the heat and humidity pushes the drivers

(18:56):
to their physical limits over the course of the race.
They've been known the drivers to lose eight pounds during
the race. It's the most physically challenging event on the
F one calendar. Not uncommon for guys to retire from
the race just because they physically can't take it anymore.
As hot as it is, I'm done, I have little
six pounds of all away. The circuit's hot, but the

(19:21):
race for the Constructors' championship will remain equally as balmy
McLaren boasts the two hottest drivers in present time. Lando
Norris continues his assault on his first Driver's championship. Will
the kid from melden Oscar Piastre remain hot at night?
He's been the top scorer in the World Championship over

(19:42):
the last seven Grand Prix with two wins, two seconds
and a fourth, and he's proven himself. Perhaps his bosses
at McLaren think that he is worthy of the number
one seat for the Papias. How do you like his image?
How do you like his style? How do you like
the way he looks when he's the kid? Will be
hot at night? Matt lover Boy is a great band,

(20:08):
wildly underrated. If I could make the bandana look my look.

Speaker 3 (20:13):
Damn, it's great to have the bandana look except when
you aged? How did did not age well?

Speaker 4 (20:21):
Yeh?

Speaker 3 (20:22):
Didn't rage well?

Speaker 1 (20:23):
These aged fine.

Speaker 3 (20:24):
It's hard to pull it off when you're when you've
added an extra hundred LB's to what your word?

Speaker 1 (20:30):
Natural process of aging didn't say it? Was it the
red bulls?

Speaker 4 (20:34):
Baby?

Speaker 3 (20:34):
Let's not take the bandana along for the ride?

Speaker 1 (20:37):
Have to? How were we gonna know its ends?

Speaker 3 (20:39):
By look?

Speaker 1 (20:39):
He looks so.

Speaker 3 (20:40):
Different the lover boy look is Bandana.

Speaker 1 (20:44):
The Red Bulls are not going easy into that hot
human Singapore night. Mad Max's dominant start to the season
still puts him at the top of the driver's championship.
Check O's solid performance before his unfortunate late shunt at
Baku well mean the Bulls will look for him to
continue to challenge the front runners at a circuit he

(21:05):
won in twenty twenty two. Keep him in range from
the McLarens for the Constructors' Championship, and don't count out
Ferrari Matt. They're just thirty one points behind the second
place Red Bull and the constructors Championship. The Prancing Horses
are backing up their expectations that they would be strong
in Monza, Baku and Singapore, and that bodes well for
Sadie Kate's and the Scooteria this weekend. Finally, Matt, Well,

(21:28):
welcome back. Kevin Magnuson. The host driver returns to the
grid after one race ban after he accumulated twelve penalty
points leading to his suspension.

Speaker 3 (21:38):
Not cool.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
With a clean slate on his penalty points, look for
k mag the Viking to stir it up like only
he can with the rest of the punters and back
markers through the streets of Singapore. Suck my balls man.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
Indeed, yeah, what's going on with sober No update there?

Speaker 1 (21:58):
Go take Stroll's whitey ass out and that's your F
one report, Matt, Southern California and the F one Report
powered by the risk On three to sixty Global Success
Conference taking place following the F one weekend at the
Rio in Las Vegas. It's gonna be hot at night.
Secure your spot at the risk on three sixty dot com.

(22:19):
And I think we got dead in alive coming up next, Matt.

Speaker 3 (22:22):
We do, and then we will pass it on to
Tim Kates, David Bassey, the crew that we'll get you
ready for first pitch against the Rockies final homestand Dodgers
Rockies Dodgers Padres before the final series out in Colorado.
Magic number is six, opportunity for them to wrap up
the NL West when another division crown, they clinched the
playoff spot and now it is all about postseason seeding

desert where water is scarce.

Speaker 3 (23:55):
But not great. Sports talk on Wednesday. That will not
be scarce. That will be pardon the pun and no spot.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
No Dave Weese, nobody breathing down our necks. We're gonna
be free to do what we want any ol time,
like the stalls.

Speaker 3 (24:11):
Well, unless Tim Kates wants to crack the whip. He
is in charge. Has said he secured a bartender as
Fat Burger on Speed. Perhaps we will have a Morongo
Casino resort and spat fire off where we don't open
the show complaining how a Burger was just shoved in

(24:31):
our face at three oh four.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
We're gonna come on talking about how great everything is,
and then the show's gonna crash.

Speaker 3 (24:37):
Well, the stage could collapse because it is a rather
wobbly stage.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
It would stock in the rain, and we had such
stage issues.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
We place ourselves in the path of peril for you
a listener, We're giving away Dodger Padre tickets for that

the Day tonight.

Speaker 3 (25:22):
Yeah, close to being an annual September twentieth. I know
I've done it a couple of times, but whatever, we
both celebrated Joseph Ward Cone Junior. Joseph Cone would have
been one hundred and four today goes by the name
Jay Ward. One of the all time great cartoon creators, animators,

(25:43):
character artists, very much like Tim Kats. Born in Berkeley,
raised in Berkeley, went to school at cal but then
finally cut cut out of town, hit up Harvard to
earn his MBA at Harvard State School.

Speaker 1 (25:57):
Like Tim Katz, he started out on the fly at
of Berkeley, like by Berkeley High School, and then as
he grew older, he grew up into the hills.

Speaker 3 (26:05):
Where Kate back up the hill. Yeah, Kate's in the hills.
Now you belong, you're a flat lander. Uh, He's to
be right.

Speaker 1 (26:12):
By Saint finn Bars. And now Kates has climbed the
hill like a yodeling freaking alps climber lay lay.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
He looks down on Finn Bar's He looks.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
He looks down on Finn Bars to see the sweepings
up the Street, Look down, look down upon your fellow man.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
Our man. Jay Ward was obviously smart, Harvard Business School
and all. So he got into real estate, had his
own office up in Berkeley at the corner of Ashby
and Claremont.

Speaker 4 (26:43):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (26:43):
Things are going well until a runaway truck crashes through
his building, pims him, pins him against the wall. Uh.
So obviously he's down for a while in the hospital,
and for whatever reason, decides he's going to start drawing cartoons.
Kept his real estate business making a lot of money,
and he wanted to chase the animation dream. Moved down

(27:03):
to Los Angeles, and I guess the intersection of luck
crossing with talent. One of his childhood friends, Alex Anderson,
happened to be an animator and had a few inroads
with television industry, so they Ward and Anderson pitched Crusader
Rabbit to NBCTV. Other characters in Crusader Rabbit included Dudley
do Write, a bumbling Canadian Mounty, and hamhock Bones, a

(27:26):
Sherlock Holmes parody. NBC liked Crusader Rabbit, but they didn't
really like Anderson and Ward and all the other ancillary characters. Somehow,
they were able to keep Crusader Rabbit, so Ward and
Anderson started their own TV studio, their own I should say,
animation studio to build out a TV show, A cartoon

(27:47):
called It's based on a TV studio in the north Woods. Newsman,
Oscy Bear, minor characters Rockety, Glyde, Squirrel, Bullwinkled j Moose.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
Why do you think Oscary?

Speaker 4 (27:58):
Matt? Why?

Speaker 3 (27:59):
Why his Berkeley Man?

Speaker 1 (28:01):
Right?

Speaker 3 (28:03):
Rocky and his friends? Is what it ultimately would become
premiered following American Bandstand ABC nineteen fifty nine, NBC would
make Peace with Ward.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
Can you just think of how many chicks Dick Clark
with the pointy boobs just laid across his desk with
that hair all amst hammered.

Speaker 3 (28:19):
I would guess all of them.

Speaker 1 (28:21):
Anyway. It was a big success, wasn't it, Matt? Great success?

Speaker 3 (28:25):
Yes, to say it was a hit would be an understatement.
Grew More and more characters were added, and seemingly everyone
introduced was received incredibly well, specifically during the height of
the Cold War, the lighthearted approach to a very serious
dinner table topic. Gloris and Natasha Jay died in eighty nine,
married three kids and posthumously got his star on the

(28:48):
Walk of Fame the Hollywood Walk of Fame in two thousand.
We like Rocky and Bullwinkle. If you don't, you're probably
a communist. Happy Birthday, jam Well.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
The Boris and Natasha caricature not far off. I mean,
for anybody that's known what Russians are like, I mean
that is a that's it very I mean, there's that
Russian restaurant in Burbank right off the h Is it Glendale?
You know that place right right by the five entrance?

Speaker 2 (29:14):
You mean Russian on a median place? No, it's just bro,
what'd you say?

Speaker 3 (29:21):
I like Kates's Russian accent, All right, Romenian accent.

Speaker 1 (29:25):
You're I'm gonna do a musician today. Beating out the
uh I think they're the Pisano brothers from Styx, and
beating out the Nelson Twins, which is a real powerful
twin combo to be born on the same day, the
guys from Styx and the Nelson Twins.

Speaker 3 (29:41):
That is impressive.

Speaker 1 (29:43):
But another band where you'd think the guys were twins.
Kind of British.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
News, it's time for PMS.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
British News, United Kingdom, English News, It's time for British news.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
Cheerio straight. This is dedicated to Ronnie Fox, who at
some point in his life turned in his evanessence card
for the House Martins.

Speaker 3 (30:09):
Is that what he turned in? I don't think the
House Martins would accept that as a trade in.

Speaker 1 (30:13):
The beautiful South took it. Dave Hemingway Matt is sixty
four today from Hull, a port city, and he met
a drummer in school at Hull and they started bands.
Their first band the Velvetones, then the Shoppers, which was
a well renowned post punk band. Hemingway was the drummer

(30:36):
and much like Phil Collins, he came out from behind
the drug I'll give me a short when the lead
singer of the House Martins quit, Dave got his break
on their second album they called him while he was Clerking.
He quit Clerking and he did their second album, The
People Who Grinned Themselves to Death in nineteen eighty seven.

(30:57):
He and the guy from the House Martins. After that
band disbanded, one of the guys in the House Martins
was Norman Cook, who became fat Boy Slim.

Speaker 3 (31:13):
How about that?

Speaker 1 (31:14):
Yeah? But Dave Hemingway and Heaton those are the two
guys became the joint lead singers of the Beautiful South.
They created the band The Beautiful South, which is really really,
really really popular in the UK, which is what limit
nineteen eighty nine is when they started ten albums from

(31:35):
the Beautiful South and a succession of a female vocalist too,
fifteen million albums sold of Jack Pop. Yeah. Really well, Matt,
you know when you go after Margaret Thatcher and you
attack those tories socially conscious yet Christian lyrics. Now. Dave

(31:56):
left The Beautiful South in two thousand and seven after
years of the band, and he started the band The South.

Speaker 3 (32:04):
Not Beautiful anymore, No.

Speaker 1 (32:06):
And then he just started and then he uh and
then the band that he's in now is called the Sunbirds.
He's married, seems like a nice guy. His heroes and
you might have a hard time hearing this in the
music over the years, Matt. The heroes for Hemingway and
the guys in the House Martins and the Beautiful South

(32:28):
were the Smiths, Elvis Costello and Paul Weller.

Speaker 3 (32:36):
Not a bad trio.

Speaker 1 (32:39):
The same melancholy tone in all the bands, whether it's
The Sunbirds, the South, the Beautiful South or the House
mart different from Evan Essen.

Speaker 3 (32:50):
Slightly uh, not as lyrically impactful as Evans if.

Speaker 1 (32:55):
You want to uh if you don't believe me about
how big these people were and are still because every
couple of years they write like a big article where
are they now? Kind of thing on these people in
this band. Check out all the different later with Jules Holland,
like they let these people just take over like five
or six shows and the Beautiful South puts in a

(33:17):
lot of work. So always a very interesting British band
to look at any of the people from the Beautiful
South or the house markets very heavy stuff, very indeed,
you know what else is sushi from the market? If
that's time, time for the Zench PMS pregame presented by
Zench Sushi, Fast, Fresh and easy.

Speaker 2 (33:41):
For thirty five years, zen she has been perfecting the
art of handcrafted sushi at a masterpiece made fresh daily
of precision, passion, a tradition. You can taste. Had one
from the Rouse on Boyda Vista and Victory and Burbank
just today, lady in there making fresh rolls of sushi

(34:03):
as I grabbed mine that she just made. Look at
that every bite exceptional?

Speaker 3 (34:09):
What you get Kate's right consistent on the.

Speaker 2 (34:16):
Go launch dinner ball game. It's fresh, it's fast, it's easy.
It's Zenchi handcraft in sushi, picking up a raulsh in
a local supermarket right into the deli counters so easy.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
Speaking of fresh, Dodgers are fresh off a four and
three road trip.

Speaker 3 (34:29):
Matt they are clinched their spot in the postseason. On
the same evening, Otani went fifty to fifty for the
first time in Major League history ninety one and sixty two.
The Pods were off yesterday, so their lead increased to
four with just nine games left, but three of them
directly with the Pod Rays following this series with the Rockies.

(34:51):
Not a bad roadie four and three, they split with
the Braves, won two out of three from the Marlins,
and tonight the Rockies in town. This is the final
homestand this is it. Show Heil tiny. We'll hopefully get
a standing ovation efforts historical yesterday, you would assume he
would six for six, three dogs, ten ribis and as

(35:16):
we said, the only member the fifty fifthy club Doggers.

Speaker 1 (35:21):
I'm stacking cash from Abra and we'll be back on Monday.

Speaker 3 (35:26):
It was such a performance. I'm taking an extra week
off two o'clock.

Speaker 1 (35:30):
Hey, don can I take a couple of weeks off
during the ploffs? Don't come back. If you do, you
enjoy the game.

Speaker 3 (35:39):
