Money and then, as Matt said, we'll be out there

Speaker 3 (02:24):
Patent pending, working on it, working on it.

Speaker 4 (02:32):
We hope you had a great weekend.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
I will have access to a tray of Coca colas.
I might be able to peddle those based on what
I was just handed.

Speaker 4 (02:42):
Oh that's good.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
Outside of that, don't know, if I'm able to go,
I'll be able to go down on the field.

Speaker 4 (02:47):
Maybe you'll be like one of those Japanese ladies at
the Tokyo Dome with the with the beer bladder pack. Yeah, yeah,
the crazy beer bladder backpack. It's the best thing I've ever.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
Sated my life. And why what are we doing? Why
are we limited to these cans in these you know,
metal openers, twenty four ounces of canned beer when you
can have a bladder attached to your body, poor and
sweet SuDS like Colin Cowherd. Here, here's a third of
a glass of beer and two thirds foam. You're welcome.

Speaker 4 (03:21):
It's gonna be pretty sweet, Matt and it's a modello
meets a lot of Monday. Speaking of beer, when those
deers super surveys a day on the venus and money
show as the servesa will flow Codelo, I'm sure a

(03:42):
few will be consumed for opening day, responsibly informed the
wish it's not a real meats if it's not made with.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
MODELO had a mcglatta that was tasty.

Speaker 4 (03:52):
That is a reward of ragallo. What for those with
the fighting spirit, it is a classy move to give
a reco to all. My friend Ali was out or
to Nolgora.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
Had a Mikelata that was tasty.

Speaker 4 (04:11):
Of course it has the mark of a fighter astac
Modelo USA. Please drink RESPONSI.

Speaker 3 (04:24):
Good to see our old friend Brad out at the
Dodger Stadium. Always brings us a Modelo Michelada to the
suite when we begin our broadcast run and we will
be out there on the field in the suite.

Speaker 4 (04:36):
The suite has been moved to the graduate the the
Kitsaniena room at the Guisados on sunset, it was just
where that our Dodger suite has now been relegated to.
Man I hate to tell you that.

Speaker 3 (04:51):
Well, last year we moved from the third base to
the first base side and we were able to take
in all the many citations and salutations to the Great
Vin Scully from the many cities spattered around the great
La area.

Speaker 4 (05:05):
That's still us, I believe. But what's your alluding to
some of us? Well, I mean, you can bring your
beer bladder into the suite, Matt, with your with your vending.
There's been some credential stuff, so we're just look, I
think the most accurate thing that can be said, Matt
without making wild swinging speculation in the dark. No more

(05:29):
crawling in the dark looking for the answer. I think
the one thing that can truly be agreed upon Matt
around here is that as the Dodgers have grown in
success over the years here on AMPHI seventy LA Sports,
our access has been cleaved and cleaved and cleaved and
cleaved once more.

Speaker 3 (05:47):
Yeah, the need for the petrous in money shows promotion
has been well. It once was requested that it was
demanded once a homestand and then it was you know,
became just part of us being kind of the boys
this summer as well. We enjoyed it, made our friends

(06:09):
like that. Yeah, we liked being out there and kind
of got used to it.

Speaker 4 (06:13):
Out on the road, I saw a deadheadsticker on a Cadillac.

Speaker 3 (06:16):
And then all of a sudden, once we got used
to it and really enjoyed it.

Speaker 4 (06:19):
And then we weren't the boys of summer anymore. Nobody
on the road, nobody on the beach.

Speaker 3 (06:25):
So yes, that's where it stands. The last two years,
specifically last year dialed way back and this year well
kind of searching for access as we get ready to
broadcast three hours of noon to three pm on opening day,
going into that Tiger's Dodgers opener.

Speaker 4 (06:42):
Crawling in the dark, uh Matt. In the very next segment,
we're going to have fat shaming Vassa, fat shamed Ben Maller,
a whole bunch of the last hour or so, and
nobody fat shames like Vassa. Nobody, nobody with a puffy
or face fat shames more than Fassa. As I don't know,
I heard that there's still a lot of hate there.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
I was gonna say, is it fun, is it tongue
in cheek or is it legitimately contentious?

Speaker 4 (07:08):
Ask Ronnie was the only one that was there.

Speaker 5 (07:10):
Did seemed to be rather lighthearted.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
Okay, yeah, good to hear. Okay, So Vassay is going
to join us, and we have a second guest in
our second hour. We're going to talk to Ben Boltch
right quick in the second hour, right after we do
the tournament awards.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
Just ask the questions.

Speaker 4 (07:27):
Yeah, well we are. It's going to be about the
transfer portal and if UCLA is going to be able
to keep some of these guys now that they're out,
including a die Mara.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
Are you asking a question here, Boone.

Speaker 4 (07:37):
Well you we're going to ask him those questions specifically
about that, because there's a lot of speculation and I
didn't hear that either. I know Tim Kates did Brewin
talk over the weekend. Was there was Mick Cronin in
a conciliatory mood when it was all over.

Speaker 6 (07:53):
Mick did not talk to Joshua Tracy coach Savino I
think is his name.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
Yeah, Savino. He sent him out again like he did
after the Wisconsin loss.

Speaker 4 (08:02):
Geez, that's like sending Luca Brotzi to go get strang
by the.

Speaker 3 (08:04):
Way, Matt he does pre right, they would do Mick
pre and post, pre impost. Yeah, so he'll do the
pre and I think he finally was just like all right.

Speaker 6 (08:13):
Enough in Indy, Matt when they lost to Wisconsin on
that Friday in the quarterfinal round, he didn't get to
the podium, Mick Cronin and the players until thirty two
minutes after the game was over. And you know, Mick
was quick to make a point of that to the
Big ten officials who were there, like this is great,
but waiting thirty two minutes to come up here and speak,

(08:33):
couldn't do this a little faster?

Speaker 2 (08:35):
Yeah, he was not happy.

Speaker 4 (08:36):
No what transfer portal opens on Monday today. You get
Sein get it done. He gets Savino and Rich. It's
a great show.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
You get Savino is who you did?

Speaker 4 (08:46):
Savino and Rich coming. They do a two man game.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
So good.

Speaker 4 (08:51):
I love this show, all right, Matt, I gotta do
this here because we have tournament awards and we have
other things, and I feel like it's that important that
I need to report this right now because I did it, Matt.
I dipped my toe in the Atlantic before any of
us and sailed across the seas and explored the New World.

(09:15):
I went to the Into It Dome. I did it
to watch a Clippers griz although I believe they're called
the Grists.

Speaker 3 (09:25):
That's the word on the street.

Speaker 4 (09:29):
I went there for a Toyota event, an activation is
what they call it. Matt. They had a beautiful tacoma
there right by the court that they have outside the
into a dome, functioning court, beautiful functioning court right in
front of what they designed to be like these Spanish
steps where people can sit, and then that giant screen

(09:51):
is there in front of the court. I gotta say, Matt,
I gotta say, and we're going to get to it.
But anyway, I met two very sophisticated women. Toyota ad
execs Jennifer and Genevieve, and we went into the suite.
I met Mikey, the Toyota hype man, a big longtime

(10:12):
listener of Great Sports Talk out of.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
Philly, Great Sports Talk.

Speaker 4 (10:16):
Everyone was lovely and of course it's hard not to
feel great about life around the brand new Toyota Tacoma,
a vehicle that uses so cal vibrants. But Matt as
the very unlikely pioneer of the three of us to
dare step into the into a dome, like Marco Polo

(10:37):
stepping into China, just like that. Well, am I the
first is that unlikely?

Speaker 3 (10:46):
Incredibly, I went to.

Speaker 4 (10:49):
Inglewood, Prairie and Century and Matt, I cannot describe as
you said when you asked a question to Dawn McClain
about what you'd read about the Into It Dome. The
Into It Dome is la futura. You were into it

(11:11):
it was. I was into the into It, Matt. And
there is no harsher critic and bigger hater of the
new than me. But Steve Baumer built the most beautiful,
innovative spaceship of the venue that you could possibly believe,
And it's got a great steep grade that you would love, Matt.

(11:35):
I know you like it. You'd love that steep grade.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
Put those nose bleeds right on top of the floor.

Speaker 4 (11:41):
They're right on top. And then the ring, the other
ring is under the one right on top, so the
lower ring goes under the top ring. Beautiful, and they
both have a steep grade. It's got video ribbons everywhere.
Every seat is like a bougie movie theater seat with
a controller and a holster. And get this, Matt. The

(12:05):
controllers also serve as a light red, white, or blue,
and they light up as stuff happens, which in effect
makes the whole stadium like a drone show. I got you.
Anytime a basket go, anytime anything happens, all these things

(12:27):
that are in the seat light up, and you see
it in all the other seats. You don't realize that
your seat is also part of the show. I'm part
of the show. I want to be included in the conversation,
I got to say, and you know, I hate everything,
and I was deeply unimpressed the conversation. I was deeply

(12:47):
unimpressed with Staple Center when it opened, uh, and didn't
think of it I thought of it as a big,
ugly Marriott. This thing is worth seeing. It is unbelievable.
I looked around and the whole place is pretty remarkable.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Wow, great service.

Speaker 4 (13:10):
Quaw Man freaked out makes Crypto look like the La
Sports Arena. I'm not kidding, Matt, which you love and
I love my l staples open just as far as
modernism go there and you will see now the clippers
pr especially does not like us. We get very little love.

(13:34):
If we still have the clipper chairs they set us,
I'd give them back just to get some more burn
for the petrols and money show at the Into It Dome.

Speaker 3 (13:44):
Man, we betrayed Chris immediately. Instead of establishing a burgeoning
relationship in positivity and trust, we immediately betrayed it and
played the voicemail that Fred sent Chris for not getting
his two clipper chairs. And I think it was worth it.

Speaker 4 (14:02):
Well, Matt, you, of all people who created that terrible
conflict and who loves to roll with the new, would
deeply I believe you would feel invigorated, like reading the
fountain Head. Oh if you saw the Intuit Dome.

Speaker 3 (14:18):
I believe I am going Friday, April fourth, sched.

Speaker 4 (14:24):
It's a revelation in arena architecture. And I'm not embarrassed
or ashamed that I have not been there because none
of us and if none of us have been there,
that also means many of our listeners haven't been there either.
And I only went because I worked for Toyota. But
thank the Lord because it was and is, and I'd

(14:45):
have to say honestly, and I don't think I'm exaggerating
the premier venue for hoops on Earth and it has
to be better for concerts than Crypto because it couldn't
be worse.

Speaker 3 (15:02):
Wow, just ask Springsteen.

Speaker 4 (15:05):
That's right. Springsteen played one show at Staples. I'll do
it again. It blew me down. So a big thank
you to Genevieve and Jennifer and the people at Toyota.

Speaker 3 (15:17):
How long did you stay?

Speaker 4 (15:18):
I stayed for the dribble and drive event at halftime,
and then I then I took it to the leaven
No post game on the fan duel. Huh No, I didn't.
I didn't even see their activation. I was too involved
in my own activity. Did you see dom Clan? I didn't.
I didn't. The media purchase considerably higher, and the media
seats are nowhere near where they are at Staples. No.

Speaker 3 (15:39):
I think they're in the catwalk.

Speaker 4 (15:41):
Yeah, there, but you know they're a little higher.

Speaker 3 (15:43):
Carabiner and you have a belt and you just snap
into the catwalk and you just hover.

Speaker 4 (15:48):
They are a little more, they are a little higher.
There's no doubt. But it was. It is a pretty
impressive thing, and congratulations to Balmer for building it. It.
It felt like being in Spain Mountain in nineteen eighty four.
Hardcore hardcore Clippers. Matt Indeed, unfortunately, I think our relationship
with the Clippers is such that.

Speaker 3 (16:08):
Yeah, don't repair.

Speaker 4 (16:09):
Yeah, but I do think that you in particular who've
gone to stadiums your whole life and been to many
arenas and been to a few, just maybe a couple dozen,
just in the last year, would really be blown away
by this venue. I mean, people build new stadiums all
the time. I was down in that San Diego State

(16:31):
one in the football stay Dragon snap Dragon, where there's
not a doily of shade and you feel like you're
a survivor. Yes, the new anything does not necessarily mean
it's good. But this this is worth taking a look at.
It is beautifully done, no.

Speaker 3 (16:50):
Doubt I feel better about my soft.

Speaker 4 (16:52):
Yes, it shouldn't cost seventy bucks to part. But when
you parkalk across a bridge and you're like in the thing,
it's not You're not coming from all over Hell's half
Acre as if you're you know, parking in somebody's driveway
at the La Collis.

Speaker 3 (17:10):
When the Lakers moved from the Forum to the Staples Center,
my season tickets provided me with the lot right next
to the pantry. It's like, seems to be a little
bit far from where I am going to games where
you have me parking right.

Speaker 4 (17:26):
Yeah, and if you still Adam Matt, you wouldn't even
be able to eat that Union made sure the pantry was.

Speaker 3 (17:31):
Club ay holes.

Speaker 6 (17:33):
So this means we can't play Fred Rogan's voicemail to
the Clippers anymore because you're back on the Clippers.

Speaker 4 (17:39):
Well, first of all, we can't play Fred Rogan's voicemail
the Clippers anymore because it caused a terrible conflict, and
I just think we were instructed not to if I
haven't heard it in a while, Handli.

Speaker 7 (17:54):
I'm the sports guy Channel four and I also work
at KLAC with Rodney Tet. We do the midday show uh,
we said. He said a lot of cheers over here
today to the producers, to Petrows, to money. I think
big boy got a chair.

Speaker 3 (18:09):
Boy did get a chair.

Speaker 7 (18:11):
We didn't get any chairs. And we're on the radio station, Chris.
So I'm gonna talk about that today when like the
minute we go on the air at noon. So please
be listening because I'm going to give you a special
shout out. Oh you have a good day.

Speaker 4 (18:27):
It's the greatest voicemail ever.

Speaker 3 (18:30):
Oh I'm so happy. We hadn't heard that in a
long time. Oh man, that was a part of the
problem there, it was.

Speaker 4 (18:38):
But uh, you know, I.

Speaker 3 (18:40):
Believe we said to Chris, just send it to us.
We won't play it. We just want to hear it.
We want to, we want to, we want to hold
onto it. And by problem bye we Chris doesn't have
my number. I don't know Chris at all. Fair, but
put this on the air immediately, like right when we
get on the air.

Speaker 7 (18:55):
Hey, Chris, I'm gonna talk about that today when like
the minute we go on, So please be listening because
I'm gonna give you a special shout out.

Speaker 3 (19:05):
Oh God, I love it.

Speaker 4 (19:08):
Poor guy.

Speaker 3 (19:09):
Yeah, that was the beginning of the.

Speaker 4 (19:10):
End beginning that was the end.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
Well, it was the beginning of the middle and the
end of the end.

Speaker 4 (19:16):
But whatever our radio Shenanigan pettiness is or isn't it is?
It is noted that the end to it, Dome every
is everything they said they were gonna make it.

Speaker 3 (19:29):
And you are into it, Hi, Matt, you know it.
I put my name on the wait list for season tickets,
so into it.

Speaker 4 (19:41):
I am a day. Yes you do. We're gonna have
a good day.

Speaker 3 (19:45):
We are. We're giving away tickets to opening Day. It
is your chance to is this? Do we have a
pair of decades? Is that how we're doing it? Or
what are we doing?

Speaker 4 (19:53):
No?

Speaker 3 (19:53):
We have a pair to give away between now and Wednesday.
Well that changes things dramatically. We have one pair, one
pair between now and Wednesday.

Speaker 6 (20:03):
One pair.

Speaker 4 (20:04):
Wow, maybe we shouldn't hype it up.

Speaker 3 (20:05):
Thats so we have to navigate seven and a half
or eight and a half hours of petros and money,
including flex alerts which will erase some of those hours
to determine when we want to give away our one
pair of tickets to Opening Day.

Speaker 4 (20:20):
Copy that.

Speaker 3 (20:22):
Yeah, I thinks have changed a little bit.

Speaker 4 (20:24):
I mean, yeah, So let me get this straight, tim
We are having credential issues and we have one pair
of tickets in three days like a jockey's crash diet
to give away the opening day.

Speaker 6 (20:40):
Dude, Scott vans Like and Darwin Barney are not on
this Dodger team anymore. People want to go to you

seventy LA sports dot com. David Vassy is with us
down in Anaheim tonight. Nobody does a better job reporting
for the Dodgers than David Vassay. He's ours on seventy

(22:31):
Spectrum Sports and that an MLB network. Dave, what's cracking?
How are you?

Speaker 8 (22:37):
I'm doing great here in the Dodgers visiting dugout at
Angel Stadium. A beautiful day to play baseball next month.
He just finished his pregame work, is headed into the
batting cage and uh, we're waiting for Freddie Freeman to
emerge out of the clubhouse. He is back in the
starting lineup after playing last night, and even though he

(22:58):
was over to success School Swings, that did not reaggravate
whatever left rib injury he had in Tokyo.

Speaker 3 (23:06):
Was it the worst kept secret Dave that snell Zilla
would would be headlining things? And just how does that
shake out for the rest of the season. And I
know it's early, but as we kind of protect how project,
I should say, how this rotation is going to lay
out when your ace is facing your opponent's ace, what
do you think it'll look like?

Speaker 8 (23:25):
Well, I already know how it looks like. Dave Roberts
laid it out, Matt, I mean, and number one, if
you were doing the math, just trying to backdate, you
know the days on who's going to start when, especially
when snell Villa was not pitching in Tokyo, it lined
up for what we're getting a marquee matchup on opening
day Karen Scuball, the reigning American League Cy Young Award

(23:45):
winner against the two times two times Cyjung Award winner
and Blake Snell. And this is the problem that teams
are going to face against the Dodgers. You look at
the way the Dodgers are stacking up their rotation in
the Tigers series. Not only do they have a two
time sy Young winner on Opening Day, but they're following

(24:06):
with a newly confident Yoshi Yamamoto in the second game
of the series and closing it out with a very impressive,
but raw Roki Sazaki on Saturday. They have the op
Day on Sunday, That's when we'll be with Ko at
the Citadel Ralph Lauren Fan Experience, and then on Monday,
tonight's starter, Tyler Glass now, will open up that three

(24:29):
game series against the Atlanta Braves. Tyler Glass Now, just
to put it in context, probably could be the opening
day starter or number two starter at the very least
for twenty nine other teams out there. So the Braves
are going to see an Opening Day caliber type of
picture in the what sixth game of the year for

(24:50):
the Dodgers.

Speaker 4 (24:52):
That's shocking. The great David Vasse talking about the depth
of the Boys in Blue, the team that he is
embedded with like a tech on a Docson Dave, you know,
it was a terrible terrible thing to hear, I mean,
all joking aside, terrible thing to hear about how ill
Mookie Betts has been This seems a lot more serious

(25:13):
than it was originally thought, Like, does just some food
poisoning or something.

Speaker 8 (25:18):
Yeah, two weeks of having a stomach issue not being
able to hold down solid foods is not ideal, especially
when you're trying to get ready for a season and
a demanding position, maybe the most demanding outside of Thatcher.
Mookie Betts told us last night that he weighed one
hundred and seventy five pounds when he left for spring training.

(25:38):
He now only weighs one hundred and fifty seven pounds.
He cannot, Yeah, he cannot hold down solid foods. And
he told me Petros he's scared to eat. That's a
direct quote. I know you can't relate to that, but
that's how Mooki Betts feels right now.

Speaker 4 (25:56):
Did you do the same joke on Ben Mallor?

Speaker 8 (26:00):
I said, Ben Aler's never been scared to eat, So
I did. I augmented it for you, Dave, audience, new audience.

Speaker 4 (26:09):
What hour apart? What hour apart?

Speaker 3 (26:12):
It the same joke, My god, like a fat joke.
Let's get after it, Dave. Just in terms of because
I feel like this is sort of something that happened
last year, right where it's like, oh, it would have
been great if you would have had more time to
to get it acclimated and assimilated to shortstop, and it
just didn't line up, And maybe that's why it wasn't
everything we thought it could be. Are we feeling the
same way about this? Not to mention like concern about

(26:35):
soft tissue injuries for this guy that hasn't played or
worked out in a long time.

Speaker 8 (26:40):
Without a doubt, And that's why I don't believe he's
playing on Thursday, the home opener. And he alluded to
that last night and he said, you know, basically, does
it make sense for me to try to push it
just to be in the starting lineup for four innings
on Thursday? And he doesn't want to put the team
in a bad spot or even make it a game
time decision. And where you know, Miguel Rojas has to

(27:02):
get ready quickly to play for a guy that's been
scratched late in the in the day. So I don't
see him playing Thursday. I think the bigger question is
does he go on to il or did the Dodgers
go day to day with Mookie Betts. I think that's
the bigger question. But you know, for a guy that

(27:22):
takes a lot to weigh one hundred and seventy five
pounds and he's going to start playing again the most
demanding position on the infield, and he said last night
it seems to have to start the season playing uphill.
And as you guys know, once the season starts, no
matter what sport it is, it's hard to put on weight,

(27:43):
let alone put on wait for a guy that's really
small that you know, has to make a big effort
to put on weight, So it's not ideal in a
lot of different ways.

Speaker 4 (27:53):
Hey, Dave, how does that Mike Trott look out there? Huh?
Have you seen him running around? Be on him?

Speaker 3 (27:59):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (27:59):
I talked people with the Angels yesterday and they said
he actually looks really good in right field. In fact,
Kennelly Jansen told me that Trout looks really comfortable in
right field and he expects a big year from his
new teammates.

Speaker 3 (28:12):
Last thing from me, Dave, just going back to the
Mookie bets not a shortstop? Is this going to be
a permanent Miguel Rojas thing? Is this something that you
think they're going to take day by day? And it'll
change daily, like how do they fill the void of
having a potential MVP at that position, you know, not
with them or not knowing if he's going to be

(28:32):
with them on any given day.

Speaker 8 (28:35):
Yeah, it's going to be Miguel Rojas. And on the
days the Dodgers want a better matchup from the right,
you know, if they're facing a tough right hander, there's
going to be days where Miguel Rojas doesn't play, and
probably Tommy Edmond slides over to shortstop as he won
the NLCS MVP doing that last year and was so
great to the Dodgers in the World Series and NLCS.

(28:58):
So they're they're pretty covered their covers. I'll just say
it that way. Like I said in Tokyo, it just
feels like against most teams, the Dodgers are a heavyweight
while they're fighting basically a lightweight.

Speaker 4 (29:11):
As far as rosters go, amazing, as David Vassay gives
us the Skinny Dodger Talk tonight, Morongo Casino, Dodgers on
Deck and Ralph Lauren on Sunday for the rare Sunday
off at the Citadel with Ti Oscar. Are they gonna
just gear you up? Dave, You're gonna go out of
there looking like a just like a prep school kid.

Speaker 8 (29:35):
Yeah, I guess. Ralph Warren Polos has a new line
with Major League Baseball, so I've been asked for my
Polo size, so I might be very bougie with that
Roth Warren Dodger polo. On Sunday, you.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
Get a bottle of that cologne, you know, the green
bottle with that goldapp Yeah, get yourself all dusted in
that Polo cologne.

Speaker 4 (29:55):
That's a good. That's good with a cigarette that smells
good with the Boro light.

Speaker 8 (30:00):
Three sprays to the neck and one for the captain, Dave,
you idiot.

Speaker 4 (30:10):
All right, have fun out there, Dad, hit the rough, Lauren.

Speaker 3 (30:15):
Travis Mathew, get one for the captain.

Speaker 4 (30:18):
Travis Matthew's gonna be a little cellos, all right. It's
about that. It'll beat a lot of Monday on the
Petro Said Money Show.

Speaker 3 (30:25):
Can you imagine we go out there on Thursday next
week or something. We see Dave and he just reeks.

Speaker 4 (30:31):
Of I'm gonna wear the sweatshirt with like the knitted
Polo Teddy Bear wearing a Polo sweatshirt on the sweatshirt.

Speaker 3 (30:40):
I'm gonna wear the jean jacket with the corduroy collar
and the American flag.

Speaker 4 (30:44):
That's cool too, or you can get the Teddy Bear exactly.
We're gonna look so sweet rough Lauren Forever. Let me
go intimidate Bill shaking with my USA Polo sweatshirt on.

Speaker 4 (32:00):
From somewhere in the vicinity of shopis ravine some of us. Well,
I mean, I'm not gonna leave you out, Matt. If
you're in the latrine at Guisado's, I'm with you, all right.
It is a Monday, so I'm gonna do what I do.

Speaker 2 (32:14):
The weekend is mine, son. How was your weekend, Matt?

Speaker 4 (32:20):
How was your weekend?

Speaker 2 (32:21):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (32:21):
Busy?

Speaker 3 (32:22):
Did a lot surfed the Saturday morning. Then I had
a couple of friends, my friend Rick and Mike asked
if I wanted to make my way down to the
Newport Beach country Club because the Champion Store was in town.
The old men that do the professional golf, so I
thought it was an old man surfing competition, old man golf.
So good crowd, I mean, should I should say good field?

(32:44):
You had Patty Patrick Harrington, Colin Montgomery, Ernie Els, Freddy couple,
so good group out there playing. Ran into John Spanos
his son Jack, walking around, uh, following all those players
and was able to up there at the fourteenth whole
hospitality tent and just kind of watch everybody come through.

Speaker 4 (33:04):
So that was a good time.

Speaker 3 (33:04):
I picked up my old friend Doug, who I hadn't
seen in a while, the partner that I gulfed with
all the time at Old Ranch, who witnessed the Phyllis argument.
And I said, yeah, let's just carpool because it's going
to be crazy down there. And as I picked him
up and he got in the car, he had the
same Travis Matthew polo that I was wearing.

Speaker 4 (33:23):
That happens to you a lot, man, I remember that
happened to you once at like one of your early
charger practices. So you changed on the field into like
a weirder, tighter polo and then you had to change
back back.

Speaker 3 (33:35):
Yeah. So we had to answer the question repeatedly did
you guys plan that, to which of course I answered, oh,
of course we did. Come on, look at you remember
CAD's and I at the Genesis. That's right exactly. So
what's happened to us quite a bit. But that was
a great time. Saturday Night, the Kids PBJ trio which
is now the p kJ trio, The Beck is Out

(33:56):
that Kelly is in played Hennessy's. That was a great time.
Same thing surved early there was some YouTuber having like
a fishing derby and there must have been one hundred
to two hundred people fishing. Well, that's important on the shore. Yeah,
it was kind of kind of odd. Highlight of the
weekend for me. Toggle bolts, tape, measure level, a half

(34:17):
inch drill bit, and I managed to execute the hanging
of a seventy pound mirror at the house without ripping
anything out of the wall or well, I did kind
of bump the wall, so I got to do a
little drywall repair. I did actually bang it once, but
outside of that, I thought it was a pretty good effort.
On Sunday to hanging the mirror, I went to Long
Beach skate with Preston. She needed to pick up some
new hardware and grip tape. She and I skated around

(34:40):
for a little bit and then the Good Doctor and
his wife came over for barbecue and basketball. We did
that from about four till like nine. Time to be Alive,
Good time, Seal Beach, Great tot Kates had.

Speaker 6 (34:52):
A great weekend, guys. Started Friday night, went down to
Fantasy Springs Casino resort out of the desert.

Speaker 4 (35:01):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (35:01):
Why you ask, that's a great question, because the band
playing down there that my wife really wanted to see
named Old Dominion. They're a country band that was playing
down there. It turns out they played big arenas last
time they were in LA. They were at Crypto sold out. Well,
this was the I don't know, Matt, what you would
call it, like the tribute band warm up?

Speaker 8 (35:19):
Warm up?

Speaker 2 (35:20):
Oh performance?

Speaker 3 (35:21):
Gotcha?

Speaker 4 (35:22):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (35:22):
So small venue they can't set for stagecoach. Yes, yes,
so they were there. They had no real stuff in
the background.

Speaker 4 (35:30):
They had on the band though.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
It was a real band, real band, But they can't
play a big venue because stage Coach is paying them
a ton of pats.

Speaker 4 (35:37):
They're warming up.

Speaker 6 (35:38):
Yes, it was a warm up to the Two of
the members of the band just flew in from other
parts of the country that afternoon's tired.

Speaker 4 (35:46):
Oh tell me about it.

Speaker 6 (35:48):
Had an interesting concert experience, and I'm gonna lean on
you guys as music buffs more than me.

Speaker 4 (35:53):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (35:54):
It was an two hour show and the first song
in my wife started standing up and having a good
and singing and dancing, and my daughter as well. The
people around us did not, except for the couple to
the right of my wife, And then slowly and surely
there were some people starting to stand up. It was
a primarily older crowd, seventies, like really old for someone

(36:16):
in the go figure out right. There was a group
of people behind us, three couples and then a couple
of women, all in a row.

Speaker 2 (36:26):
We were in section.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
Qq ro G.

Speaker 6 (36:29):
I believe so the people in row h if you're listening,
you ruined my concert experience. They were at you the
entire time. Sit down, sit down now, wouldn't this be
great if we just sit down the entire time?

Speaker 3 (36:43):
And Katese is like, no, I want to shake my
ass to old dominion. My wife turned around, looked at
him and kept on dancing. Yeah, would not sit down
the rest of the way. If she stood for two
hours and would not sit down, the couple to her
right stood the entire time. There was a couple in
front of us, one row in one section over having
a right time, drinking, dancing in the aisle.

Speaker 6 (37:01):
They were just there for having a great time. They
were young with them to sit down and be quiet.
It was unbelievable. I've never been to a concert before
where people were so so bent on sitting down and
watching the concert for two times.

Speaker 4 (37:14):
The people are standing up at a concert that's on you. Yeah,
you got to stand up, stand up your dance, man.
I sit down and try to catch a view between
their buttons.

Speaker 6 (37:21):
And they were singing along to the songs right, and
they were kind of tapping their thighs at a drinking one,
so they were into it. They obviously knew the band.
They were singing along, but the standing up they had.

Speaker 4 (37:30):
A huge problem with.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
Sit down, sit down.

Speaker 3 (37:33):
They must have said it a thousand times.

Speaker 6 (37:35):
I kid you not the entire show in between songs
that got kind of quiet, crowds cheering.

Speaker 4 (37:40):
Sit down, We wish we could enjoy it. Sit down.

Speaker 3 (37:42):
Maybe they had osteoporosis. Were they drinking? And sure, no,
they were drinking cheap beer.

Speaker 4 (37:49):
Do you think they made it needed to be on
bon Eva? You don't think they had They didn't have
the bone density.

Speaker 6 (37:57):
Towards the end, a song started that I knew from
the band, and so I leaned to the lady the
next the couple next to us, we're probably in their
mid seventies. I looked at the woman and I said,
I'm sorry, but I'm gonna stand up for this song. Yeah,
she goes, you go ahead and do that, sunny.

Speaker 4 (38:09):
That's right.

Speaker 3 (38:10):
I stood up and I enjoined that and I'm gonna dance.

Speaker 4 (38:12):
Damn it.

Speaker 6 (38:13):
I could not believe it. Two hours of just yelly,
sit down. I've never had that happen before.

Speaker 3 (38:19):
So don't go to a concert exactly what or bring
your bone eva, get that bony even.

Speaker 6 (38:25):
Going did Saturday, had nothing really to do besides bon talking.
Then Sunday Dodger So yeah, a couple of tips to
Don Kuco's and I went to Barney's Beanery last night,
first time ever. Tim Kates went to Barney's Beanery and
about Burbank, first time ever, Barney's being rey the one
in Burbank in West Hollywood before. Nope, you've never been
to you went. I've never went to any Barney's Beanery

(38:46):
in my life. Would nothing about that first time ever
last night?

Speaker 4 (38:49):
Would you think give me two shots?

Speaker 3 (38:53):
Sit down, sit down, Ronnie.

Speaker 5 (38:56):
Rookie concert goers, I'm sorry that happened.

Speaker 3 (38:57):
Oh they were old.

Speaker 5 (39:00):
Had a great weekend. Was up early on Saturday morning
to take my car to the wash Ransom Aaron's around
town and paid a visit to ven Hub in North
Hollywood on nikershim and bat Owen. Indeed, now you know,
Matt told us about this last week, and it's been
on the news for the past few weeks. It's a
twenty four hour convenience store that's run exclusively by robotic technology,

(39:21):
where you order something from the app and after a
few seconds, a robotic arm begins to move, grabbing whatever
it is that you ordered, placing it on top of
a box that lowers, much like an elevator, and there's
an opening that opens up for you and you grab
your item. Now, it's very easy. I approached. I didn't
know what to expect. There's instructions on there that's basically

(39:43):
what you have to do is download the app. It's
all app driven, So you download the app, create an account.
Following that, you order whatever it is that you wanted.
In this case, I wanted to, you know, try it
out with a red Bull. Okay, so I ordered a
red Bull. A couple of seconds later after downloading the app,
the arm starts moving. People start to gather behind me
watching this, and it's saying, oh.

Speaker 4 (40:03):
Look at that, look at that. Let's try it. Let's
try it.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
Is there anybody in there?

Speaker 5 (40:07):
I like, no, it it's totally robotic. That's when I
started to kind of explain it to them and they
tried it as well, So it's a it's a win win.
It's it's actually pretty cool. It's a pretty cool situation.
And Yeah, Sunday didn't do anything, just hung out around
the house doing domestic chores.

Speaker 8 (40:25):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (40:25):
No, I did not go to vin Hub on Saturday,
but I do plan to go back there this weekend
just for the novelty of it. Watching NBA and the
Freeway series, and that was my weekend. What about you, Petros?
Is there a vent Hub by you.

Speaker 4 (40:38):
Stand up and enjoy the show? Sit down, sit down?
There's no van Hub around here.

Speaker 2 (40:44):
Yeah, you can dance to that, Sonny.

Speaker 4 (40:47):
Uh, I told you about the into it doome.

Speaker 7 (40:49):
What a place.

Speaker 3 (40:50):
You're way into it.

Speaker 4 (40:51):
I'm Matt. I couldn't be more into it.

Speaker 2 (40:55):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (40:56):
Saturday we were very busy. I went to yoga and
then we had soccer and Lawrence Torrance has great parks. Uh.
And we won the game the Dragon Flames my daughters.

Speaker 2 (41:08):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (41:08):
Then my son was the PA and a baseball game.

Speaker 3 (41:12):
Making money.

Speaker 4 (41:13):
Yeah. After I said that they make forty bucks. Apparently
they were complaints to the board. Somebody heard me say
that on the air called the board and complaint. Oh
these poor kids. Yeah, welcome to Palace Ernie's where everybody's
an over offiicious chart.

Speaker 3 (41:27):
You took money out of these kids pockets.

Speaker 4 (41:29):
Right, Well, I don't think they change it.

Speaker 3 (41:32):
I just think, oh they complain.

Speaker 4 (41:34):
Yeah. Uh, my son did a good job. Fletcher did great.
I took my wife to a nautically themed oyster bar
wife in Redondo called Salt and Pearl, and then I
watched Dirty Harry. Uh, now, Matt's you got the oysters?
What's that?

Speaker 3 (41:50):
Did you eat? The oysters?

Speaker 4 (41:52):
I got? They had New Orleans style Charborough the oysters.
I wanted to see how they stacked up against Dragos
and well it wasn't Dragos, but everything else was fabulous. Uh,
not cheap, but fabulous. Now this is new. My son
is aged down a little league, so we had to
join a local travel team I guess you would call

(42:14):
it the Rolling Hills Renegades with coach Eddie. And we
had two games. My wife and I were new to this.
We had to get my wife seven in the morning
on Sunday and drive his sorry ass to California High
School in Whittier.

Speaker 3 (42:30):
Yeah, you got to travel for the travel team.

Speaker 4 (42:32):
Well, usually it's in Long Beach, which is doable for us,
you know, but Whittier, California High home of the Condors,
and there was a swap meet there at the same time,
which made parking almost intolerable.

Speaker 3 (42:48):
Do you get some good mixtapes?

Speaker 1 (42:50):
You know?

Speaker 4 (42:50):
I looked around. I did see a Nancy Drew lunchbox,
and I swear I almost went over and bought it.
One dude got hot. This guy named Jason got hot
in his pants and his wife went and bought some shorts.
He's like, I'm not wearing these. He's like, yeah, you are,
you idiot? Good change, and he did. It's pretty good.

Speaker 3 (43:06):
Swampy.

Speaker 4 (43:07):
Yeah, I was right there. But we were beaten soundly
by the Wittier storm and then the Southern California dirt
bags added Duarte, But was still a lovely day. What
thank you to Coach Eddie and the Renegades.

Speaker 3 (43:21):
Do you guys play Renegade by sticks to get it going?

Speaker 1 (43:24):
No?

Speaker 4 (43:25):
But I think that's a great idea, right, And I
have one of those speakers that you can, you know,
bring around.

Speaker 3 (43:32):
Or that great Rage against the Machine cover of Renegades
of Funk Jam Sucker.

Speaker 4 (43:40):
All right, we'll be right back with more great sports
