Oh throw them on San Cheto. It's been a beautiful Wednesday.
I thought that was a great James Worthy fanatic. Well
why wouldn't it be? You expected, He's always interesting, And
I thought maybe I could ask that two tone jersey
question another day because we had so much Luka Donchez.
But then I just went for it.

Speaker 4 (01:46):

Spectrum Sports. A geeter could take it from me, Ali
could take it from me. Brez could take it from me.
Robert Lorri it's a great point. Uh, Sweet, you got
a lot of guys out there, a lot of dudes
that could take that two tone thing from you. Because
that was the highlight.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
Clifton. Uh, sweet James is going to join us, uh
this hour. Uh, that will be our guest this hour.
Eric Daily Junior from the Big UC.

Speaker 4 (02:30):
How should the headline be today? What should the headlines be? Well,
I will get there, geez around unbelievable. Eric Daily Junior
is going to join us in our third hour. I mean,
what should the headlines be? He hit the game winner, baby,
and then.

Speaker 3 (02:46):
Luka Doncic is a Laker and look at don Chic
and Lebron James or Eric Daily's favorite player and Luca
don cech Is that what he says? Do you think
he drinks that like two hundred dollars bottle of Russian
vodka that you see at the bougie liquor stores.

Speaker 4 (03:06):
Yeah, I hope so.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
George Lee got me a bottle of that once and
I drank it and I was like, oh, it tastes
like vodka, right.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
All right, you know it's not smeared off. Let's not
get crazy. It's not pop off or smeared off.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
The taste didn't leave me breathless, but at the same time, it.

Speaker 4 (03:21):
Wasn't like who just slit my throat on fire?

Speaker 3 (03:23):
Well, you know, Matt, my grandfather when I was a
young man, owned liquor stores and I worked in the
liquor warehouse. And one of the great things that Matt,
that my brother and I Tosso had from the liquor
warehouse were promotional nineteen seventies and eighties liquor T shirts
and two of them, and we would, we were so

(03:44):
proud of our liquor heritage that we would wear them
under our shoulder pads for our you know, football And
you know, nowadays guys have a little bit more. I mean,
you're in those locker rooms, are around the pro players
and all that, Matt, And nowadays, you know, guys wear
like me, pream dry fit stuff and back you know.
But now back then, you know, you just wore like
a cutoff T shirt, T shirt. Yeah, cool T shirt.

(04:06):
And maybe some guys still do that, you know, because
of a luck thing or this and that. You know,
Michael Jordan wore those.

Speaker 4 (04:12):
In North Carolina.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
Yeah, but uh, we had we had one T shirt
that on the front of it said ever wrestle a
grizzly bear, And on the back it said you can't
jack whiskey.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
Good stuff you.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
And then the other one was red with white riding
and it said smearnof vodka on the front and on
the back it said the taste leaves you breathless. Yes
it does. And I could not agree more.

Speaker 4 (04:39):
I could not agree, but it is absolutely accurate.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
Sorry about what kids. I love the headlines, dude. I'm
all headlines all day.

Speaker 4 (04:45):
Absolutely.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
You guys want to talk headline? Talk headlines right now.

Speaker 4 (04:48):
Remember when I found out that Chopin and Belvedere were
the same thing. Oh my god, I used daggonized over
which battle I was gonna buy it. The liquors, that's
the thing you're.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
Gonna tell me is kettle one isn't Russian? What? Ah?
Doesn't it piss you off? Like? Can I just say this.
I go to the liquor store and you see, like
somebody selling a bottle of Buffalo Trace for like twenty
eight bucks. Right. You go to another liquor store, it's
nineteen dollars. Yeah, what's going on? What is going? Where's
the ten dollars going?

Speaker 4 (05:19):
You shop around?

Speaker 3 (05:21):
But still, you know what I mean, what are we doing?

Speaker 2 (05:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (05:24):
I support the local Armenian, so I like to hit
the local liquor store. Even though I know they're getting
me for about five bucks extra on everything.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
Yeah. I support all the locals.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
Too, Yeah, but I'm with you. I'm like, jeez, I
just bought that six pack here and at the Pavilions
it's three bucks less.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
Yeah. I don't know, Matt. I don't like it.

Speaker 4 (05:44):
Cash only, bro, three dollars less?

Speaker 3 (05:46):
Oh Bro? If we go cash only, well, that's a
whole different that's a horse of a different color.

Speaker 4 (05:50):
Bro with cash and yep review Sody guts.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Matt. It's happened in his time.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
The word of the day, his words, the word of
the day, And.

Speaker 3 (06:05):
As you may have guessed, today's word of the day
is one of the headlines.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
What should the headline be today?

Speaker 4 (06:12):
Sports?

Speaker 2 (06:12):
That's all we think about. Here's the yow story.

Speaker 4 (06:14):
Nobody's talking about.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
You know, I'm not a racist. I mean, I hope
you do. He's a bad headline.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
What are the headlines?

Speaker 3 (06:21):
The headline, Matt is not. I'm not going to do
anything about the the Patrick Mahomes and Britney Mahomes and
their outfits, or Taylor Swift good or Travis Kelsey.

Speaker 4 (06:32):
People were pretty stoked on Taylor Swift's quads at the Grammys.
Did you see that. They were like, damn, look at
them legs, Quadzilla.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
Yeah, yeah, okay, Well she's one hundred feet tall. I
hope that she has legs to support her frame. You
don't want to be like one of those old linemen
with a big old body and skinny little legs.

Speaker 4 (06:49):
Oh Storm Norton.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
Nobody wants that. Uh but no, I'm not going to
do that to you, Matt. You know, I did find
it very interesting. I went on Two Pros and a
Cup of Joe this morning, and they're in New Orleans,
you know, on Radio Row, shake out the stage, I'm built,
I'm here. We had dinner at the Commander's pallem uh,
and we didn't talk about the game at all, not once.

(07:14):
We might have talked a little bit about the city
of New Orleans because I sent him over to Lucy's
retired surf bar today on Chappatula's Beauty and I asked
Jonas Knox if he liked it, and he said him
and lead to Lap, their producer, loved it. He said
it might have been a little bit below the tastes
of two pro football types, LeVar and Brady, which disappointed

(07:34):
walk into traffic, guys, not that much traffic on Chappatulas. Unfortunately,
right across the street is the Renaissance day Artist. Maybe
they can find a nice bathroom stall in there to
see something about each other. Anyway, we did not talk
about the game, so I will not talk about the
game other than the guy calling the game. Giselle Boonchin

(07:58):
Matt has given birth to her third child.

Speaker 4 (08:02):
What yep, she already spit out a kid with krab
macguy guy.

Speaker 3 (08:06):
With Joakim Valente her krab ma god believe is Israeli.
This is a jiu jitsu guy. A Brazilian ground fighter.
TMZ has learned that Giselle is super happy and the
baby's okay. Nobody knows when the baby was born or
what the baby is.

Speaker 4 (08:28):
And did she did birth to it or was there
a surgery? She blew it out, She blew it.

Speaker 3 (08:32):
Out, but they didn't tell anybody till she was six
months along because you know, she cheated on her husband,
this guy.

Speaker 4 (08:39):
To have his seed planted in her womb.

Speaker 3 (08:42):
Correct it is they were first link back in November
twenty twenty two.

Speaker 4 (08:45):
A fertile place where his seed found purchase.

Speaker 3 (08:47):
Well, it's wrong. I don't like it, Matt. How old
is she old enough to blow a baby out?

Speaker 4 (08:54):
Well, I guess that's her young enough just to blow
a baby out.

Speaker 3 (08:59):
I think she's born me something. But she looks like
the predator, so it's a totally different deal. Yeah for
four years old. Yeah, however, her and Joe Kim, her
new boyfriend, are now considered to be inseparable, and he
loves her and they're very happy together. And Tom Brady's
not sweating it either. He's calling the Super Bowl and

(09:20):
he owns the Raiders. So yeah, but there's he going
to plan his seat? Is he going to be able
to get a low friend to spit out another kid?
So you think about it like this, He's got the daughter,
the bastard child, the son, the son right with Monahan Poind.
He's got a daughter and a son with Boonshin, And

(09:41):
now there's this mystery Brazilian baby coming out doing armlocks
and stuff, trying to get people to tap out as
an infant. And he's got half brothers and half mothers,
and it's like, you know, I mean, now, I mean
at a certain point, I mean it's like, you know,
this is like Brad Pitton Jolee's family.

Speaker 4 (09:59):
Yeah, that's right, Like the two from the Boo, they
got two half siblings, and then the two half siblings
are like, yeah, I'm not related to you.

Speaker 3 (10:10):
Right, Like, how does that work?

Speaker 4 (10:12):
Pretty well?

Speaker 3 (10:12):
Yeah, I got this weird Brazilian brother I've never met.
The one time I talked to him, he kicked me
in the back of the knee and put me in
an armbar.

Speaker 4 (10:20):
Now, one of the guy won't leave her side. He's
aid jiu jitsu instructor, and she's got half a billion
dollars of net worth.

Speaker 3 (10:27):
Yeah, so anyway, I uh, that's what I gleaned for
one of the headlines. Matt trying trying not to upset
you with the let's go chief stuff because I'm kind
of tickled. Even though I'm not a fan of the NBA,
I'm a little bit tickled that the Super Bowl with

(10:49):
the Chiefs and the Eagles, which is a little unsavory
to many, is being eclipsed by the NBA. Trade here
in town. Hey ohe without those soundbites. Without those soundbites,
I'm not sure how much we discussed that is.

Speaker 4 (11:10):
Those soundbites are the extent of our Super Bowl coverage.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
This week so far.

Speaker 4 (11:15):
Literally, time for the number of the day.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
Literally, here's my number, number of the day.

Speaker 4 (11:21):
I know we talked about it at the start of
the show, but it's the number of the day, twelve.
Maybe you haven't heard. The Barrett Media outlet has released
the top twenty major market afternoon drive radio shows coast
to coast, north to south contiguous. Forty eight Alaska, Hawaii included.

(11:42):
Forty six panelists were pulled to vote for the best
afternoon drive sports talk radio show in all the land,
and we received each of us. We appreciate them making
sure it did not go unnoticed individually. They tagged us

(12:03):
in the tweet in which we fell into the category
of ten through thirteen, coming in at a very comfortable
number twelve. And one of the bullet points when it
only took.

Speaker 3 (12:17):
Us twenty years Matt about twenty what is it nineteen
years or whatever?

Speaker 4 (12:21):
Or this our nineteenth year.

Speaker 3 (12:22):
Yeah, yeah, so it took us nineteen years to climb
into the top fifteen.

Speaker 4 (12:27):
Yes, we've always been between fifteen and twenty, and we
felt like that was forced because our boss Don Martin
had considerable pull with the Barrett Media folks.

Speaker 3 (12:35):
On bottom of shrimp stampy last nine.

Speaker 4 (12:39):
I'm doing the keynote. We lost out on number eleven
by a single vote. That is one of the bullet points.
Additional notes, Felger and maz won the category for the
fourth time in the second straight year.

Speaker 3 (12:52):
Well, I can't you know, I can't step to that. No,
how could we? You know?

Speaker 4 (12:56):
You think it's all Google Gaga?

Speaker 3 (12:58):
Uh serious.

Speaker 4 (13:00):
The closest contest saw Grant and Danny finish one point
ahead of Petro Some some Money, and of the thirty three
shows to appear in submitted ballots, ten received at least
one first place vote.

Speaker 3 (13:10):
Who votes for this?

Speaker 4 (13:11):
That was me here? I will answer that question for
you as I scrolled to the top. According to the website,
our executive panel consists of forty six program directors and
corporate executives from a number of top broadcasting companies that
include Odyssey, iHeart, Cumulus, Beasley, Good Karma, ESPN, Fox Sports Radio, Sirius,

(13:33):
XM Radio One, and a number of independently owned and
operated radio stations. It's a large group in order to
include feedback from all parts of the country, as well
as to prevent the results from heavily favoring one company.
Would you like to know the criteria ear test originality,
multi platform impact. We got all that rating success clearance

(13:59):
for the national shows. That's like a syndication. How many
stations you got? And industry buzz. We came in twelve
very excited about our position.

Speaker 3 (14:11):
Well, it's been a long time since we created any buzz.

Speaker 4 (14:13):
Hey Dan Burreal in Minneapolis, who came in at thirteen. Fu,
you can't step to us. You got nothing on us.

Speaker 3 (14:22):
Oh mini haha Radio.

Speaker 4 (14:24):
Yeah, losers, losers, big ass losers, Grant and Danny whatever.
I'm glad you beat us because look at that dumb
ass selfie. Yeah, football guy, fat face. Well, hey he's
got a hat on. That says football guy. Well, I
want to know what he's into. It looks like he
does a show with Ryan Day. That's what he's into.
I look at all angry behind him.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
This says Felger and Mass prioritize work, and that's why
you guys, it's right twelve and they're number one. You're right.
I have not prioritized work, and that is why I'm
an ass hat.

Speaker 4 (14:56):
That's why we came in at twelve. I will say
the most upsetting photo of the bunch is in a
look whatever, it's number five on ninety four wip Man
the Ike, Spike and Fritz Show. So it looks like
it's Ike Taylor, I think right. It was then his name?
Who is the former Eagle?

Speaker 3 (15:18):
I think so.

Speaker 4 (15:20):
But this dude, either Spike or Fritz, has got some
of the highest hair I have ever seen.

Speaker 3 (15:25):
Yeah, and you know I said it on Softy today
and I said it to Brady.

Speaker 4 (15:29):
Yeah, he was on it too.

Speaker 3 (15:30):
Yeah, Oh soft is it? Where is he?

Speaker 4 (15:32):
Softy is at? Uh sixteen?

Speaker 2 (15:36):
Dave?

Speaker 4 (15:37):
Yeah, Dick Faine, take that Softy loser.

Speaker 3 (15:44):
I told I told uh Softy today, And I told
Brady Quinn. You know the whole Super Bowl radio row thing,
It's like, I don't want to see what I look
like in other markets, and.

Speaker 4 (15:54):
This, this poll this wildly depressing.

Speaker 3 (15:57):
Yeah, this pole seems to be showing me exactly what
looked like in other markets without having to go to
Super Bowl radio story. Right, football guy.

Speaker 4 (16:05):
Hack, football guy had bacon.

Speaker 3 (16:08):
Neck polo that says the fan, the beast the ticket.

Speaker 4 (16:11):
Oh hey, look who's number? Show you ever heard of this?

Speaker 3 (16:14):
Pier?

Speaker 4 (16:15):
Uh ninety five point seven the game in San Francisco,
Willard and Dibbs.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
Mark Wellard what I used to do a show with
that guy?

Speaker 4 (16:26):
Yeah you did, Ronnie.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
Got right.

Speaker 5 (16:31):
This song of the day, we're number twelve, weren't number twelve.
Shriekback was a post punk new wave band out of London,
with today's song of the day called lined up because
the Petros and Money Show is transmitting live from the
Pinnacle Building in Burbank, lined up to the left of

sports talk as we maneuver passed the meaty part of
the week and get you caught up with UCLA athletics
with the Bruins Insider Show that's coming your way at
seven o'clock. Number twelve, Number twelve. Pretty awesome, man, goddamn right,

we've had the best year we've ever had. We finished
the number twelve. We're literally where Iowa State. Yeah, did
the stews make it this year?

Speaker 4 (17:31):
If you ain't stewing, what the hell are you doing?
They did not?

Speaker 3 (17:34):
What about and Ireland?

Speaker 4 (17:37):

tried to take us on and failed miserably. Oh come on,
and we're put back in the mid days. But now

Speaker 4 (21:02):
No, Rogan and Rodney. What about Mace number four? That's

was a bit of a deflator mouse, Matt. I was
feeling great about myself, So I thanks a lot man

(21:22):
riche too far.

Speaker 3 (21:23):
Yeah, I just feel like I just stormed the line
in Gallipoli, Like I just leaned into the tape.

Speaker 4 (21:29):
But it was a bullet from the acts of evil.
At least you sprint it into that bullet.

Speaker 3 (21:36):
Write it to it. I was first, all right, Matt,
this is. I did this uh for two sports radio
afternoon drive heroes. You and Softy.

Speaker 4 (21:49):
Greek News News that is Greek.

Speaker 5 (21:55):
Invented demontreci and were the first people.

Speaker 4 (21:59):
Who you know, we seek now Here's Petro's Papa Donkeys.

Speaker 3 (22:06):
Even though I no longer leave the house and have
some serious problems with a gooraphobia, people still ask me
advice about going to Greece. Matt has been to Grease
more recently than I have, but I do have some experience.
And the one thing is that Greece does not change
that much. H It changed for the better with the

(22:29):
euro and became a little more organized and less stinky
and hairy armpitted in the city. I'm sure you missed
the Drakma, Matt. We all do, but you know it's
gone anyway. Softy has been planning a trip to Greece
and with his beautiful wife, and I've told him, you know,

(22:49):
please don't go to Santorini. You know, there's too many
people there. You're not gonna you're not gonna get what
you think you're gonna get there.

Speaker 4 (22:56):
But that blue roof man, that blue dome.

Speaker 3 (22:58):
Church, yeah, I know, and that one and that one
little corner. It is the most popular Greek island and
the only one that anybody usually actually ever sees pictures of.
That's Matt just alluded to. But Southee's wife, Gina is
just staunch and is just desperate to visit Santorini. So

(23:19):
that's what they're gonna do. And Matt, you were there recently,
stopping on a cruise.

Speaker 4 (23:24):
I was. They stopped and the ballets were looking at
my niece and I looked at them and I went, oh,
And they looked at me and they went.

Speaker 3 (23:31):
What, Matt, Santorini's in trouble? Why rocked by earthquakes right now?
Oh no, we're talking about Well now, earthquakes like where
we live are frequent in Greece. They're on a fault
there in the Aegea, and Santorini has a history of earthquakes,
which I'll tell you about. But Santorini's being rattled every

(23:55):
few minutes, which is quite rare, like three to five
magnitude five minutes apart, all the time for a couple weeks,
and that is rare. Now, Santorini is a volcanic island,
which is why it is shaped like a full blown
out volcano. Why because it's a volcanic island and it's

(24:18):
on two dormant volcanoes, unlike the one in Kilauea, which
is actually active in going off right now. Experts think
this could be a precursor to a larger quake, like
when your stomach starts rumbling after you've eaten something like
bad pokey, as Kates would say, bubble, and then there
is later a larger eruption. But so far no damage

(24:40):
really and nobody hurt. The Greek Prime Minister Kiiakos meets
Otakis has urged calm, but all types of stuff on
the island is being shut down. No one is able
to have a group gathering. You're not supposed to stand
on any cliffs. Now. The lucky thing, Matt, which I'm

(25:02):
sure you already thought of, is it's February, which means
it's not like Maui in this way. In February, how
many people are on Santorini. But people are still leaving
in the hundreds and a lot of people have left.
Flights and fairies are being added, and the Coastguard vessels

(25:25):
are perched outside in case there's a big problem and
they need to evacuate everybody, but still in February, and
this is not an exaggeration. There are more churches than
people on that island. So if you think about like
Maui and how many people visit Maui or Oahu every year, well,
the Greeks do love church. They do well, and they'll

(25:48):
build a little tiny one that's like the size of
a phone booth, and that qualifies right. But also another
stat is there's more wineries than people this time of year.
They have a very dry white that has only grown
by the grapes in Santorini. I don't know if it's
gonna blow up?

Speaker 4 (26:06):
Kates, are you like calling Pompeii here?

Speaker 3 (26:09):
Kates has said that it's gonna blow off into the
sea and it's gonna be gone.

Speaker 4 (26:13):
I think am I gonna be touching myself Pompey style.

Speaker 3 (26:16):
I'm sad. I'm sad if this affects Softy because he's
already made. Him and his wife have already made their
plans this summer. Why wife now? The mayor of Santorini,
Nicos Zorzos, does not sound Greek, has said that he
is cautiaubly, cautiously optimistic and that things are gonna settle down.

Speaker 4 (26:38):
All right.

Speaker 3 (26:38):
I uh, and the state run earthquake guy in Greece
if Dilimos Lecas sound green. He said that the epicenter
is moving away from Santorini and that there is no
connection to Santorini's two dormant volcanoes, which I guess is

(27:00):
a is a bonus.

Speaker 4 (27:05):
Maybe you just wheel over the big subs from Mikinos
and start pounding the base bins. So it just feels like,
oh the Wolfers submarine. Yeah, Grease, don't have no submarines
broke the subers.

Speaker 3 (27:20):
A Greek submarine is a naked guy in fins with
a spear.

Speaker 4 (27:23):
Gun just to try to get the thump going, So
you can blame it on the beat.

Speaker 3 (27:29):
Well, they have plenty of clubs in Santorini, but not
in Ea where everybody hangs out anyway. Matt finally, a
retired ship worker that hangs out in Santorini. According to
the AP, panayotis hatzia or you is staying. Panayoti said

(27:51):
older residents are used to the earthquakes, but it is
different this time. It's not the same to have earthquakes
every two or three minutes. I can imagine, but he
did say, Panayotes did. The main thing is not to worry.
Now we could listen to music alone and drink coffee

(28:11):
by ourselves.

Speaker 4 (28:15):
Fair point.

Speaker 3 (28:16):
Yeah, I mean, which you know, it's February and Santorini.
I mean, nobody's there, but we're keeping an eye on
a very popular island, Santorini.

Speaker 4 (28:26):
I've got a photo of that.

Speaker 3 (28:28):
Man Panayotti's Hatzi your you.

Speaker 4 (28:33):
I'm sending it to you right now. It was my
favorite photo I took on that miserable cruise I was
forced to attend from my wife's side of the family. Yeah,
that looks about right right. Got the dickies on this
guy working on that little boat. Beautiful, red door, beautiful.

Speaker 3 (28:51):
Now, why is Santorini so popular? It's kind of interesting
because the island was blown up. I mean there was
nobody there. I mean there was a terrible raid between
British and German soldiers where a bunch of people were killed.
During World War Two. There was a terrible earthquake there
in nineteen fifty six. It killed fifty three people and
basically destroyed the entire island, and it blew up in

(29:15):
tororism after the sixth around the sixties, and really got
going because of a movie with you know who, the
King of real Estate, Peter Gallagher and summer lovers, remember
that movie with all the seventies Bush just pounded it
out in the beaches of Santerini. I don't think I
ever saw it. Oh, that was a very popular movie.

(29:35):
And then the Traveling.

Speaker 4 (29:36):
Pants sisters of the Traveling Pants.

Speaker 3 (29:39):
They did two there. But anyway, it's a very popular
island and it's very close to sinking into the sea,
so we will take liberties to use our mati in
Greek that's the eye to watch feeda, which is the
word that the Greeks used for the island. Fida. Santorini
is an Italian name, and it's stupid, and it's stupid

(30:03):
it is it's a Greek island. What are we doing? Anyway?
I thought you would find that story interesting.

Speaker 4 (30:08):
Love it.

Speaker 3 (30:09):
Now. When you were in Santorini, did you say, Wow,
if this used to be a volcano, we could be
blowing sky high at any minute.

Speaker 4 (30:17):
No, I said, I'm rather enjoying myself right now. I've
been here for four hours and now I have to
quickly get to the other side of the island in
forty five minutes, so my ship doesn't leave me behind.
I hate this stupid cruise.

Speaker 3 (30:28):
I wish you would have been able to visit Greece
with your family under different circumstances. Yes, we'll be back
with Sweet James. He'll tell you what happens when a
volcano blows right under your balls. Who do you suit?

Speaker 4 (30:49):
Coming up on the halfway point. It's a full four
hour show today. Eric Daily Junior hit the game winner
last night over Michigan State. Seven seconds left. He will
check in at the bottom of next hour. James, he
was sensational on three o'clock hour.

Speaker 3 (31:02):
Why did you have to rear end the Lucas reality
for Wheeler there?

Speaker 4 (31:09):
Because I was filming at the same time. At least
I didn't get hit by the bus that was coming
my way.

Speaker 3 (31:14):
Santorini is very, very crowded.

Speaker 4 (31:16):
It is and dangerous. I was not prepared for that
move it, old man.

Speaker 3 (31:21):
Is it time for Sweet James.

Speaker 2 (31:23):
It is order in the court. Order in the court.
It's time for justice with Sweet James.

Speaker 3 (31:31):
Sweet James an international man of mystery, quite simply the
greatest personal injury attorney that ever lived, if you've ever
been in a car accident, on a motorcycle accident, if
your home has been damaged or you lost in the fires.
Sweet James knows how to help people. They've done it
for twenty years, eight hundred nine million, or sweet James
dot com the dense beard of justice. That's sweet James.

(31:53):
Let's cracking.

Speaker 6 (31:55):
It's my favorite time of the day.

Speaker 3 (31:58):
That's right, Sweet James. Uh now, uh, you are you know?
I mean I don't like overstated, but you are a
bit of an international traveler, are you not, Sweet James?

Speaker 7 (32:08):
I do try, I do try.

Speaker 3 (32:09):
Yeah, I mean you got you know, you're best friends
with a Swedish metal band that doesn't happen, you know, overnight.

Speaker 4 (32:14):
So yeah, okay, I'm sorry. Uh yeah, pee come on man,
Norwegian Storpenborsch. I feel amazing.

Speaker 3 (32:21):
I feel so stupid. Uh but sweet James, have you
ever been We've been talking about a couple of places
today in the last couple of days. Have you ever
been to Slovenia?

Speaker 7 (32:32):
I have not been to Slovenia okay yet?

Speaker 3 (32:35):
Okay? Have you ever been to Santorini?

Speaker 7 (32:38):
I have been toos but not Sanerini.

Speaker 3 (32:40):
Yeah, it's more of a party island. Uh, Santorini. Have
you heard Sweet James is falling into the sea. Yeah,
every three minutes they're having an earthquake. Nobody knows what's
going to happen.

Speaker 4 (32:54):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (32:55):
There's not a lot of people there this time of year,
as you know, because I'm sure there's not a lot
of people in Mikonos this time of year. But let's
say I'm paying fifteen hundred bucks a night in Santorini
and I'm staying in some bougie hotel. God, it's probably
like twenty five hundred a night now, and and one
of these earthquakes shakes like a Greek vase onto my head.

(33:18):
Can I sue the hotel?

Speaker 2 (33:21):
This is Greece, This is Greece.

Speaker 7 (33:22):
No, No, you will not do.

Speaker 3 (33:24):
What are you talking about? I can't what this is Zeus,
Zeus is angry.

Speaker 7 (33:28):
You can't anger the gods.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
You wouldn't have a force.

Speaker 6 (33:32):
Majore is something that is both predictable and preventable by humans.
And here's something that really is a little might be
a little outside the scope. And of course the Greek
law is a lot different than ours.

Speaker 3 (33:43):
Well, they're idiots, let's say they are, Come on, they are.
Let's I can say that. Let's say that Santorini sinks
into the sea and I'm swimming out to a post
guard vessel and it's kind of playing chicken with me
the way kids. Do you know with the opening of
a car door?

Speaker 4 (33:59):
That would be something.

Speaker 3 (34:01):
Am I able to sue in that regard.

Speaker 7 (34:04):
The coast guard? Yeah, we could see the coast guards
have some international laws there. Yeah, we'll take them.

Speaker 4 (34:10):
Much more, much more personal for us. James, Oh, you don't.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
Think it's personal to get played chicken with from a
coast guard Canamaran.

Speaker 4 (34:17):
Now, I'm just saying an an actual event that has
occurred already, not you know, hypothetically suggesting something would happen
in our near future, something that already happened to us.
The wildly popular industry outlet Bear Sports Media has posted
their top twenty major market afternoon drive shows, as voted

(34:38):
upon by a panel of forty six program directors, executives,
fancy folks and opinion shapers and makers, and the petrores Yeah,
Petrosen Money show came in twelfth twelve, twelfth out of
forty potential shows that were nominated so forty shows nominated

(34:58):
top twenty twenty of them get cut out. We come
in at twelve. Let's say a little okay, Yeah, so
let's just say maybe it's a little low. Maybe it
besmirches the reputation of the Petros and Money show in
the eyes of the national radio programmers, in the eyes
of national radio programmers. And then we come to find
out that there was a little hanky panky behind the

(35:22):
scenes and some votes were bought and paid for, and like,
we really came in fourth, but they slid it all
the way down to twelve. Can we sue the Barrett
Sports Organization for knocking us down eight slots and maybe
preventing us from field in some more competitive offers for
our service.

Speaker 6 (35:39):
You probably could, but you know, to wrestle the pigs
in the mud there, that's just a bunch of garbage.

Speaker 2 (35:44):
Man, they're wrong.

Speaker 7 (35:45):
You guys should be number one there.

Speaker 3 (35:46):
We all know that well, But does that get us anywhere?
If our lawyer shows up and tells them we should
be number one that.

Speaker 6 (35:52):
Position, it's just going to be an absolute cluster mess
of nothing good.

Speaker 7 (35:59):
So you're some hanky pinky. How are you gonna prove
a hanky pinky. What do you go?

Speaker 4 (36:05):
We got text chain?

Speaker 3 (36:08):
Yeah, like like Baldoni and Blake Lively.

Speaker 4 (36:11):
Right texting.

Speaker 3 (36:15):
Look at that, Barret's that's what they did. Baron scrambled.

Speaker 4 (36:19):
Okay, you can get something.

Speaker 7 (36:20):
Hey, uh uh.

Speaker 3 (36:23):
You've seen this Blake Lively thing, sweet James a little
bit little take Will you take a look at it?
Because I'm team Baldoni. He's got a huge nose like me.

Speaker 7 (36:33):
Oh, do you know what I'm I'm not against him
either on this.

Speaker 3 (36:37):
Yeah, yeah, team Baldoni. I think that's how you say it.
This guy's got a big ass nose.

Speaker 4 (36:42):
Hey, what if I want to support Luka Doncic being
traded to the Lakers by smoking in my seats? You know,
even though smoking is not permitted. Let's say I just
want to spark up a sweet freaking cigarette.

Speaker 3 (36:54):
Can Matt say it's like a religious thing?

Speaker 4 (36:56):
Right? Can I say, Hey, I'm supporting Luke and let
me smoke my cigarette.

Speaker 3 (37:00):
I'm a Rastafarian, I need to smoke.

Speaker 4 (37:01):
And if they throw me out to do it, can
I can I assume him for the price of my
tickets that they throw me out for smoking?

Speaker 6 (37:08):
Uh no, no, no, no, you're you're really just right
in where other's other rights begin.

Speaker 7 (37:13):
So, yeah, you wouldn't be able to smoke there.

Speaker 4 (37:15):
What if I offer Luca? What if I offer Luca cigarette?
He takes it, I light it for him, and where
they're smoking together.

Speaker 3 (37:21):
They let him keys they're not doing anything.

Speaker 4 (37:23):
They let him keep smoking, and then they throw me.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
Well, there you go.

Speaker 7 (37:26):
You have a case that somebody different then another.

Speaker 3 (37:28):
There you go.

Speaker 4 (37:29):
There we go.

Speaker 3 (37:30):
See we can manipulate our hypothetical situation that to where
we can find the case every time. You can play
chicken with the coast Guard and smoke with Luca. Uh
the great Sweet James. There's nobody better our hero, and
what he does for people is great. And I'm paying
the forty thousand dollars hourly wage so he could tell
us about Baldoni and Blake Lively that next next week.

We love you, sweet James, have a great night.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
Love you get to fig good bye.

Oh and the nose always knows.

Speaker 4 (38:10):
You know what they say about a large nose, no
trouble breathing. Large nose warmer. What you know those ever
see those nosewarmers in the winter climates. I have not,
but like a knit like it's like a nit cap on.

Speaker 3 (38:24):
That I grew up here. It's like a murkin.

Speaker 4 (38:28):
It's like imagine like a knit cap you pull over
your head and it has like a little string that
you tie around the back of your head to keep
your nose warm.

Speaker 3 (38:38):
It feels like it would eat tickle.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
Yeah that's not great. But your snots freeze when it
gets super cold.
