a gigantic billboard in Echo Park saying that twenty nine
Palms is the next desert hotspot.

hope it's ready when I arrived.

That's all I have to say for that.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Well, we got Dodgers coming up, Matt Dodgers versus Philadelphia.
Tim Kats has got Marongo Casino, Dodgers on deck. We
talked to David Vase about Freddie Freeman on the IL
and all of that stuff. In the last hour. We
are your home of the World Series Champs. Dodgers on
Deck is at two thirty after this segment, and then
(02:30):
the first pitch will be a very odd three forty five.
I cannot understand the reasoning, but I'm not from or
never really have been to other than the airport and
anither of the airport hotel to Philadelphia.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Katy, don't forget Apple TV only, so you gotta listen

That is a great call, Tim. So it's an audio
experience likely for a lot of you. It's a hey, mamma,
and you got to see this newsroom. You gotta see it.
It's incredible. I love I love Jeff Daniels reminds me
of this place here. I'll be honest with you, this
is how we are where we are here really like
like really, I don't think it's really based on a
(03:13):
sports radio station. I think maybe more of like a
you know.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
New York Global News. Yeah, I mean it really it's
going and it's like Aaron Sorkin. So people don't really
talk like that, but I know you want to think
that we do.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
No I make fart noises.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Yeah, fifty years of full speed fart noises. The accurate
Grand Prix of Long Beach Sounds like that celebrates the
fiftieth anniversary Friday, Saturday and Sunday, April eleventh to the thirteenth.
Tickets at gp LB dot com. Tim, Uh, you can
unring your doorbell. I'm just asking you. Are we obligated
(03:53):
to go down to the roar at the shore or
anything like that?
Speaker 3 (03:55):
No, not at all. I am gonna go. I'm going
out on Saturday. As a matter of fact. So funny
how that works.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Right.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
We've been requested, demanded, assigned, castigated for lack of support
and one year that we're not doing anything pressed and
my youngest daughter's like, Hey, I want to go. Can
you take me to the IndyCar thing? And I was like, yeah, sure.

of lobbies, the gearheads, you know, the grease monkeys.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Well, man, I mean you talked about Chrysler just like
two or three days ago, So very true.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
Yes, Tim, What do they do with the hobos during
the race? Are they just like on the side of
the road.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
It's funny, you ask. They take them all out to
one of the astronaut islands and just stick them there
for a few days.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Oh, I did not know. I thought they brought them
out to the oil oil rig.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
That's exactly the astronaut islands. They just they park them
there and uh, you know, I believe they become roughnecks
for a couple of days. Then they're just brought back
to their encampments. It's wonderful.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Well there's your answer. Tim, good to know. Is that
the final hour? Fun fact?
Speaker 3 (05:19):
No, that is not. It's fun effect.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
It's yeah, three fun fact Dude, you want Tim just
because you don't win, it doesn't mean you shouldn't ruin
everybody else's good time. That's right.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Tim Conway Junior has a has a heck of a
time playing the ice time more or less through the
NHL portion of prize picks, I was able to score
a nice little uh three person more or less last
night in the world of basketball.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Look at that? How does that feel?
Speaker 3 (05:52):
And I sent it to Tim too, I did? I
sent it right to him? On his birthday. No, less
a Tim, get a look at what I just hit.
Last night, Shannon Farren posted on her Instagram feed, So
if you get the prize picks, use our code k
l AC get that bigy Di.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
You told her what's a pick too? I did not.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
No, I just noticed yesterday that she posted on her
Instagram story her picks, her prize picks.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Like you and unlike Kate's, Shannon Farren is a winner.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
I don't know if she won. I just know she
shared what she was interested in. Oh last night, I
saw that in the in the story. So you know,
keep an eye on your favorite iHeartMedia, iHeart radio personalities.
And if it's ice time that you're looking for, Tim
Conway Junior is your guy.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
You know the price?
Speaker 4 (06:44):
You know, man, I think you think I learned by
now the first week of the season that there's so
much scoring in baseball. I'm doing the less a half
a run combined for the starting pitchers in the first inning.
You think nobody's gonna score in the first right, Yet
everybody scoring in the first un It's.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Time to adjust, man.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Yeah, when you adjust, the market adjusts back to you,
and you're still like me, outside the house watching everybody
party inside.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
But that's something you can play, kates. Are you going
to go more or less?
Speaker 1 (07:14):
On?
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Yamamoto and Lozardo one half of one run alowed in
the first inning, used the code KLAC get fifty dollars
instantly after you play your first five dollar lineup, I
go less. See he doesn't learn. He just said everybody's
scoring early, and now he said I'm going less. The
Dodgers strike out a lot.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Lozardo had eleven strikeouts in his first start this season,
so pretty good odds the first in there's gonna be
zero's up.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
There go you that?
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Yes, there you go. Speaking of Lizardo and Philadelphia, this
is your final hour fun fact brought to you by
Price Picks.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Did you know?
Speaker 3 (07:49):
And I did not? Before the cheese steak took off
as the official food of Philadelphia, there was another sandwich
that was all the rage, the Philly Roast Pork. Same role, lean,
thinly sliced pork instead of steak, topped with a slice
of melted provolone and broccoli rob instead of peppers and onions.
(08:11):
And there is still a Pats versus Gino's level battle
out there. Tommy the Nicks versus John's Roast pork is
the Philly showdown for the pork roll or the Philly
roast pork sandwich, I should say, instead of the cheese steak.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
That's a horse crap fun fact, and you know it.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
What's that?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Everybody knows that the alternative food to the cheese steak
in Philadelphia is the shrimp fry peach crab. Rob it
and shut up? You know I I gotta say, everybody
(08:54):
from Philly is really annoying, and we know that and
we understand that, but at the same time, it's like
the whole Geno and Pat's thing. Every guy. You never
asked that of a Philly person because they'll always be like.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
What I go to Joseph's exactly. Nobody goes to the
only Loser Taurus go there?
Speaker 2 (09:17):
What I go to Sausage Nose mcglodle town, Like, shut up.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
You gotta go to John's. It's a cart on South Street.
It's not even a brick and mortar man.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Tommy was my godfather, and his pork sandwich sucks. I
go to Michael Denut's.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Yeah, Katie, what everybody knows it's gyms.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
You go get the shut up and.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
See what I mean. But that's a guy that worked
with Tony Bruno forever and probably had to hear Bruno
say that you go to gym's just where you go.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
You're standing line.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
You tell him give me the cheese whizz you keep
on moving, but see and that's where you You just
staffed up because we've heard it from enough idiot Philadelphia people.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Wi wit the wit.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Witwiz or witout, shut up with.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Your shitty and Peach die on the table of a stroke.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
What are you doing, Tony? You guys are you're the
losers that are going to the super Bowl in Dallas.
We're doing it live from Chicky and Peach that it's
going to be a party.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
He's right, it's time for the word of the day.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
Hurt me with his words.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
The word of the day. Today's word of the day
is Greek News. People are very upset. My phone has exploded.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Greek news. News that is Greek invented democracy.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
And we're the first people who.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
You know we seek.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Now here's Petru's Papa Donkeys.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
You know, my father's restaurant has been closed for fifteen
years and he made about forty years. And Helena run
oldest Greek restaurant or well, it used to be a
market and then it became a little restaurant. Is closing.
It is going to be over. On May fourth, twenty
(11:16):
twenty five, Papa Cristos cnk Imports is closing their doors.
You know, it's one thing to lose the pantry, and
the hobos even burned down the carcass of the Pacific
Dining Car the other day.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Those bested hoboes down.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Down, But it is tough to see Papa Cristos go
down on the corner of Pico and Normandy. After seventy
seven unforgettable years, the restaurant was opened by Sam Chris
and him and his wife Annie Chris ran it and
(11:57):
then their son Chris Chris took over Papa Cristos and
he's been there ever since. He's like, you've seen him, right,
matt O, Yeah, yeah, a little guy with a big mustache,
a longtime family friend and used to do deliveries into
the kitchen of my father's restaurant. And I first remember
(12:17):
seeing his little form come in behind a dolly delivering
Greek food because they owned a Greek market. Seeing kay
Imports along with the little taverna that was connected to it,
one of the great restaurants in La history, and it
is closing. It is only going to be open for
another month. May fourth, twenty twenty five, will be closing
(12:41):
day for Papa Cristos right across from And remember the
other day we talked about the Scudos family who created
the church or helped build the church. The guys that
created twentieth century Fox merged the companies, the brothers, and
they built that church right across the street Saint Sophia,
and Papa Cristos is closing. So if you need to
(13:03):
go get your sizzling feta or your calamari, or your
octopus or a you know, of course, or any of
the Greek things, get over there. He said in his
letter that the story of Papa Cristos does not end here,
and exciting things are coming. So maybe they're going to
(13:24):
do something else, maybe they're going to sell products or
something like that. But the legendary little Greek center for
Greeks all over southern California who would gather there after church,
or go there for events and things like that, or
just regular people who like Greek food is over. Papa
Cristos is closing sad times for Greeks in the city,
(13:47):
and no, I will not fill the void Matt by
opening Great Sports talking Utos.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
I didn't say anything, but there's a lane. I love
that place. Used to go a lot when I was
at k Rock. When we would go to Laker games,
we pop up Pico there and just take the side
streets instead of uh.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Yeah, well they would always close early. You know, it
wasn't really a dinner place and to get in there.
It was more of a lunch place and just a
wonderful family run place. Great employed a lot of people
in the area. I can get my worry beads now
on Amazon, but before that, that's where I would have
to go to get them. So good luck to everybody
in the Chris family from Zachantos and uh godspeed in
(14:30):
their new endeavors.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
I mean the buildings available. All you got to do
is just paint over the word Christos and put Petros
there and next thing you know, it's white.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Yeah, comrades, and here we are. That's it. Man Byzantine Day, Byzantine,
Latino Cord.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
I mean, let's go.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
I get right off the ten here in Normandy and
I just guys a Loyola come over here.
Speaker 3 (14:55):
Oh yeah, that's right, that's right there, and Loyal is
right there still. Oh yeah, let's inquire how do they want.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
For the building? A few reasons. Yeah, it's time with
the number of the day.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Here's my number.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Number of the day.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Number the day is four. Four head coaches we'll see
tomorrow at the final four and four at either a
legendary blue blood institution, a coach that should have been
a legend himself at a legendary blue blood program, and
two coaches that took over for their institution's greatest ever
basketball coach and have their teams playing so well they
(15:29):
might just shake that monkey from off their back and
have a shot to get their own legacy started. We
start with John Shier. This is one of the best,
and it was circulating about two weeks ago when Duke
was making their run. But we've talked about and I
think it was in context of Bronnie when he was
getting drafted and some people were saying, oh, he could
(15:51):
be the next Pat Beverly, and we were like, yeah,
pab Beverly is one of the all time greatest Chicago
high school basketball stars, freak superstars. Averaged like forty points
a game as a high schooler. And he was doing
a podcast. I don't know which one, but he is
the same age as John Shire, and he shared the
(16:12):
story about Shire, who was out in the suburbs. But
even though he wasn't an inner city Chicago high school
basketball player, his legend was so strong that he quickly
earned a reputation with every kid that was playing basketball
at the time.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
John Sire's story.
Speaker 6 (16:29):
Mind you, if anyone doesn't know John Shire, he played
at Glenbrockdorf. When I say roan, he never ducked any
smoke from any athlete in Chicago. He never ducked any smoke.
If you're from the West Side of Chicago, your high
school was in the hood. I'm on my way. I'm coming.
I'm playing. If you were high ranked, ranked closer to me,
it's okay. I'm coming to play any Christmas tournament, private
(16:50):
proviso West John Sire, Yeah, the coach at Duke I'm
on my way, I'm playing. I don't give a f
y'all think y'all is wow.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
They call him the White Mike.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
He was.
Speaker 6 (17:00):
It was in the projects walking to his games. Wrong,
you don't hear what I'm saying walking to his games
at Profosal West. He had a stardom that no other
kid had in Chicago, and his school wasn't even in Chicago.
They were in Glenbrook North. He won national championship. I
got a chance for me and him to actually be
on the same team. Mind you, when we played in
high school, he was mister Illinois. Now we're in the
(17:22):
Miami Heat together, we're trying to make it. We're in
the Summer League together, We're on the same court together.
I think someone throws an outlet. A guy reaches in
by the name of Joe Ingles, pokes him in the eye.
Legally blind. Damn can never play basketball again. Had to
get on a helicopter off to another hospital just to
fix his eye.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
Pretty awesome John Shire stories from Patrick Beverly. So even
though Duke regularly cited as sort of an evil empire
of sorts when it comes to college basketball, john Shire
having to take over for coach k as a guy
who was, like Pat Beverly said, Illinois mister basketball. The
only player in state history and there's a lot of
(18:02):
state history in high school basketball in Illinois to be
top ten all time in points, rebounds, assists, and steals,
and he comes into Duke as a freshman, starts all
thirty three games. As a sophomore, coach says, you're coming
off the bench, not a peep. Junior gets moved from
shooting guard to point guard, has to figure that out,
and then finally as a senior, put it all together.
(18:23):
Won that national championship, the one they beat Butler on
would have been the greatest shot in the history of
the NCAA basketball tournament. He is a legend, was asked
to replace coach k and they are now the favorite.
And it would be something if John Schier this early
in his career having to take over that program from
(18:44):
that coach to that quickly establish his own legacy. Real
interesting collection of guys, even though they are all one seed,
is going to be a heck of a time tomorrow
when all four of these teams tangle.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
It's a good sal running I'm it sick turn of
the day.
Speaker 5 (19:04):
Philadelphia Freedom is our song of the day, a nice
cover from Ican Tina Turner, living and breathing that Philadelphia
Freedom on a frog Man Friday super Flex Alert where
the Petros and Money Show will hand it over to
Dodger Baseball in the City of Brotherly Love, where there'll
be no love for the Phillies in a three game
weekend series at Citizens Bank Ballpark. And it all begins
(19:28):
with Tim Cats, who will have your Marongo Casino Dodgers
on Deck show coming up in a few minutes.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Thank you running, and we'll be back on on Monday.
It'll be a similarly short show before the NCAA Championship.
Of course, we're not worried about that here.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Who are we following?
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Well, I believe it would be an hour of Rogan
and Rodney.
Speaker 7 (19:51):
Ah, yes, that's what it is, or sometime for first
two ads, Actus and the absentee ballot.
Speaker 5 (20:05):

Speaker 4 (04:45):
Yes, Tim, What do they do with the hobos during
the race? Are they just like on the side of
the road.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
It's funny, you ask. They take them all out to
one of the astronaut islands and just stick them there
for a few days.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Oh, I did not know. I thought they brought them
out to the oil oil rig.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
That's exactly the astronaut islands. They just they park them
there and uh, you know, I believe they become roughnecks
for a couple of days. Then they're just brought back
to their encampments. It's wonderful.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Well there's your answer. Tim, good to know. Is that
the final hour? Fun fact?
Speaker 3 (05:19):
No, that is not. It's fun effect.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
It's yeah, three fun fact Dude, you want Tim just
because you don't win, it doesn't mean you shouldn't ruin
everybody else's good time. That's right.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Tim Conway Junior has a has a heck of a
time playing the ice time more or less through the
NHL portion of prize picks, I was able to score
a nice little uh three person more or less last
night in the world of basketball.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Look at that? How does that feel?
Speaker 3 (05:52):
And I sent it to Tim too, I did? I
sent it right to him? On his birthday. No, less
a Tim, get a look at what I just hit.
Last night, Shannon Farren posted on her Instagram feed, So
if you get the prize picks, use our code k
l AC get that bigy Di.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
You told her what's a pick too? I did not.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
No, I just noticed yesterday that she posted on her
Instagram story her picks, her prize picks.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Like you and unlike Kate's, Shannon Farren is a winner.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
I don't know if she won. I just know she
shared what she was interested in. Oh last night, I
saw that in the in the story. So you know,
keep an eye on your favorite iHeartMedia, iHeart radio personalities.
And if it's ice time that you're looking for, Tim
Conway Junior is your guy.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
You know the price?
Speaker 4 (06:44):
You know, man, I think you think I learned by
now the first week of the season that there's so
much scoring in baseball. I'm doing the less a half
a run combined for the starting pitchers in the first inning.
You think nobody's gonna score in the first right, Yet
everybody scoring in the first un It's.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Time to adjust, man.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Yeah, when you adjust, the market adjusts back to you,
and you're still like me, outside the house watching everybody
party inside.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
But that's something you can play, kates. Are you going
to go more or less?
Speaker 1 (07:14):
On?
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Yamamoto and Lozardo one half of one run alowed in
the first inning, used the code KLAC get fifty dollars
instantly after you play your first five dollar lineup, I
go less. See he doesn't learn. He just said everybody's
scoring early, and now he said I'm going less. The
Dodgers strike out a lot.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Lozardo had eleven strikeouts in his first start this season,
so pretty good odds the first in there's gonna be
zero's up.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
There go you that?
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Yes, there you go. Speaking of Lizardo and Philadelphia, this
is your final hour fun fact brought to you by
Price Picks.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Did you know?
Speaker 3 (07:49):
And I did not? Before the cheese steak took off
as the official food of Philadelphia, there was another sandwich
that was all the rage, the Philly Roast Pork. Same role, lean,
thinly sliced pork instead of steak, topped with a slice
of melted provolone and broccoli rob instead of peppers and onions.
(08:11):
And there is still a Pats versus Gino's level battle
out there. Tommy the Nicks versus John's Roast pork is
the Philly showdown for the pork roll or the Philly
roast pork sandwich, I should say, instead of the cheese steak.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
That's a horse crap fun fact, and you know it.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
What's that?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Everybody knows that the alternative food to the cheese steak
in Philadelphia is the shrimp fry peach crab. Rob it
and shut up? You know I I gotta say, everybody
(08:54):
from Philly is really annoying, and we know that and
we understand that, but at the same time, it's like
the whole Geno and Pat's thing. Every guy. You never
asked that of a Philly person because they'll always be like.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
What I go to Joseph's exactly. Nobody goes to the
only Loser Taurus go there?
Speaker 2 (09:17):
What I go to Sausage Nose mcglodle town, Like, shut up.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
You gotta go to John's. It's a cart on South Street.
It's not even a brick and mortar man.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Tommy was my godfather, and his pork sandwich sucks. I
go to Michael Denut's.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Yeah, Katie, what everybody knows it's gyms.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
You go get the shut up and.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
See what I mean. But that's a guy that worked
with Tony Bruno forever and probably had to hear Bruno
say that you go to gym's just where you go.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
You're standing line.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
You tell him give me the cheese whizz you keep
on moving, but see and that's where you You just
staffed up because we've heard it from enough idiot Philadelphia people.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Wi wit the wit.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Witwiz or witout, shut up with.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Your shitty and Peach die on the table of a stroke.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
What are you doing, Tony? You guys are you're the
losers that are going to the super Bowl in Dallas.
We're doing it live from Chicky and Peach that it's
going to be a party.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
He's right, it's time for the word of the day.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
Hurt me with his words.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
The word of the day. Today's word of the day
is Greek News. People are very upset. My phone has exploded.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Greek news. News that is Greek invented democracy.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
And we're the first people who.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
You know we seek.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Now here's Petru's Papa Donkeys.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
You know, my father's restaurant has been closed for fifteen
years and he made about forty years. And Helena run
oldest Greek restaurant or well, it used to be a
market and then it became a little restaurant. Is closing.
It is going to be over. On May fourth, twenty
(11:16):
twenty five, Papa Cristos cnk Imports is closing their doors.
You know, it's one thing to lose the pantry, and
the hobos even burned down the carcass of the Pacific
Dining Car the other day.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Those bested hoboes down.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Down, But it is tough to see Papa Cristos go
down on the corner of Pico and Normandy. After seventy
seven unforgettable years, the restaurant was opened by Sam Chris
and him and his wife Annie Chris ran it and
(11:57):
then their son Chris Chris took over Papa Cristos and
he's been there ever since. He's like, you've seen him, right,
matt O, Yeah, yeah, a little guy with a big mustache,
a longtime family friend and used to do deliveries into
the kitchen of my father's restaurant. And I first remember
(12:17):
seeing his little form come in behind a dolly delivering
Greek food because they owned a Greek market. Seeing kay
Imports along with the little taverna that was connected to it,
one of the great restaurants in La history, and it
is closing. It is only going to be open for
another month. May fourth, twenty twenty five, will be closing
(12:41):
day for Papa Cristos right across from And remember the
other day we talked about the Scudos family who created
the church or helped build the church. The guys that
created twentieth century Fox merged the companies, the brothers, and
they built that church right across the street Saint Sophia,
and Papa Cristos is closing. So if you need to
(13:03):
go get your sizzling feta or your calamari, or your
octopus or a you know, of course, or any of
the Greek things, get over there. He said in his
letter that the story of Papa Cristos does not end here,
and exciting things are coming. So maybe they're going to
(13:24):
do something else, maybe they're going to sell products or
something like that. But the legendary little Greek center for
Greeks all over southern California who would gather there after church,
or go there for events and things like that, or
just regular people who like Greek food is over. Papa
Cristos is closing sad times for Greeks in the city,
(13:47):
and no, I will not fill the void Matt by
opening Great Sports talking Utos.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
I didn't say anything, but there's a lane. I love
that place. Used to go a lot when I was
at k Rock. When we would go to Laker games,
we pop up Pico there and just take the side
streets instead of uh.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Yeah, well they would always close early. You know, it
wasn't really a dinner place and to get in there.
It was more of a lunch place and just a
wonderful family run place. Great employed a lot of people
in the area. I can get my worry beads now
on Amazon, but before that, that's where I would have
to go to get them. So good luck to everybody
in the Chris family from Zachantos and uh godspeed in
(14:30):
their new endeavors.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
I mean the buildings available. All you got to do
is just paint over the word Christos and put Petros
there and next thing you know, it's white.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Yeah, comrades, and here we are. That's it. Man Byzantine Day, Byzantine,
Latino Cord.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
I mean, let's go.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
I get right off the ten here in Normandy and
I just guys a Loyola come over here.
Speaker 3 (14:55):
Oh yeah, that's right, that's right there, and Loyal is
right there still. Oh yeah, let's inquire how do they want.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
For the building? A few reasons. Yeah, it's time with
the number of the day.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Here's my number.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Number of the day.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Number the day is four. Four head coaches we'll see
tomorrow at the final four and four at either a
legendary blue blood institution, a coach that should have been
a legend himself at a legendary blue blood program, and
two coaches that took over for their institution's greatest ever
basketball coach and have their teams playing so well they
(15:29):
might just shake that monkey from off their back and
have a shot to get their own legacy started. We
start with John Shier. This is one of the best,
and it was circulating about two weeks ago when Duke
was making their run. But we've talked about and I
think it was in context of Bronnie when he was
getting drafted and some people were saying, oh, he could
(15:51):
be the next Pat Beverly, and we were like, yeah,
pab Beverly is one of the all time greatest Chicago
high school basketball stars, freak superstars. Averaged like forty points
a game as a high schooler. And he was doing
a podcast. I don't know which one, but he is
the same age as John Shire, and he shared the
(16:12):
story about Shire, who was out in the suburbs. But
even though he wasn't an inner city Chicago high school
basketball player, his legend was so strong that he quickly
earned a reputation with every kid that was playing basketball
at the time.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
John Sire's story.
Speaker 6 (16:29):
Mind you, if anyone doesn't know John Shire, he played
at Glenbrockdorf. When I say roan, he never ducked any
smoke from any athlete in Chicago. He never ducked any smoke.
If you're from the West Side of Chicago, your high
school was in the hood. I'm on my way. I'm coming.
I'm playing. If you were high ranked, ranked closer to me,
it's okay. I'm coming to play any Christmas tournament, private
(16:50):
proviso West John Sire, Yeah, the coach at Duke I'm
on my way, I'm playing. I don't give a f
y'all think y'all is wow.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
They call him the White Mike.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
He was.
Speaker 6 (17:00):
It was in the projects walking to his games. Wrong,
you don't hear what I'm saying walking to his games
at Profosal West. He had a stardom that no other
kid had in Chicago, and his school wasn't even in Chicago.
They were in Glenbrook North. He won national championship. I
got a chance for me and him to actually be
on the same team. Mind you, when we played in
high school, he was mister Illinois. Now we're in the
(17:22):
Miami Heat together, we're trying to make it. We're in
the Summer League together, We're on the same court together.
I think someone throws an outlet. A guy reaches in
by the name of Joe Ingles, pokes him in the eye.
Legally blind. Damn can never play basketball again. Had to
get on a helicopter off to another hospital just to
fix his eye.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
Pretty awesome John Shire stories from Patrick Beverly. So even
though Duke regularly cited as sort of an evil empire
of sorts when it comes to college basketball, john Shire
having to take over for coach k as a guy
who was, like Pat Beverly said, Illinois mister basketball. The
only player in state history and there's a lot of
(18:02):
state history in high school basketball in Illinois to be
top ten all time in points, rebounds, assists, and steals,
and he comes into Duke as a freshman, starts all
thirty three games. As a sophomore, coach says, you're coming
off the bench, not a peep. Junior gets moved from
shooting guard to point guard, has to figure that out,
and then finally as a senior, put it all together.
(18:23):
Won that national championship, the one they beat Butler on
would have been the greatest shot in the history of
the NCAA basketball tournament. He is a legend, was asked
to replace coach k and they are now the favorite.
And it would be something if John Schier this early
in his career having to take over that program from
(18:44):
that coach to that quickly establish his own legacy. Real
interesting collection of guys, even though they are all one seed,
is going to be a heck of a time tomorrow
when all four of these teams tangle.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
It's a good sal running I'm it sick turn of
the day.
Speaker 5 (19:04):
Philadelphia Freedom is our song of the day, a nice
cover from Ican Tina Turner, living and breathing that Philadelphia
Freedom on a frog Man Friday super Flex Alert where
the Petros and Money Show will hand it over to
Dodger Baseball in the City of Brotherly Love, where there'll
be no love for the Phillies in a three game
weekend series at Citizens Bank Ballpark. And it all begins
(19:28):
with Tim Cats, who will have your Marongo Casino Dodgers
on Deck show coming up in a few minutes.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Thank you running, and we'll be back on on Monday.
It'll be a similarly short show before the NCAA Championship.
Of course, we're not worried about that here.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Who are we following?
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Well, I believe it would be an hour of Rogan
and Rodney.
Speaker 7 (19:51):
Ah, yes, that's what it is, or sometime for first
two ads, Actus and the absentee ballot.
Speaker 5 (20:05):
Check out.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Have a great weekend, everybody, and enjoy Dodgers Philly. Tim
Kaines coming up.
