it tomorrow, Chicago. Fun fact quite important to the Petros
Money Show. Nineteen twenty eight. Paul Galvin has a radio
parts company in the Windy City. Depression hits business crush.
Nobody buying radios as they were a luxury item. So
Galvin focuses on building a radio small enough and good
(02:45):
enough to mount inside a car. He figures it out.
To promote it, he drives from Chicago to Atlantic City,
New Jersey, for the nineteen thirty Radio Manufacturers Association convention.
They would not give him a booth, so he parked
his car illegally right in front of the entrance to
the convention hall, turned up the radio, and it was
(03:06):
the biggest thing to come out of the event.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
And they didn't even hire him.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
They didn't.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
We'll let that be a lesson to those of you
who want to get involved in the convention. We'll just
park outside of downtown at the convention center, and I'm
sure everybody will listen to what you'd have to say.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Right, get a metal phone in a billboard.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Yeah, there's no raving lunatics downtown, all right, It's time
for quickets. Everybody some tms quickets.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
I'll make it quick, y'all. Oh.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Yeah, the Dodgers are sixteen and seven off today. The
road trip continues tomorrow in Chicago versus the Cubs. Dustin May,
who's been pitching well, is on the mound.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Yesterday the Dodgers were able to hold off the Rangers.
Rangers very upset with the replay at the on the
second base attempted steal there, very unhappy Texas Rangers. Twitter
is alive with anger. But the bullpen did pitch five
shutout innings. Tyler Glass now had to leave the game
(04:11):
with cramps in his leg. Here's Dave Roberts after the game.
Speaker 5 (04:15):
I remember last year it happened kind of right right
around this time. And I don't know if it's a
combination of pickle juice, water or whatever it is, but
he's dealing with things and sometimes it just seems like
it's something, you know, different, It's not from lack of desire,
but you know, I'm sure no one's more frustrated than
he is, especially when you're pitching well. And so the
(04:38):
bullpen has picked him up. But you know, hopefully this
one and some other things are behind us, so we
can give us some length on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Does not sound like a very geeked up Dave Roberts,
maybe a little frustrated with Tyler Glass. Now, what's the matter?
You're on? Next chest? I have got a really bad tramp.
I've been having really bad tramps all week. It's probably ment.
Screw you Melon? Was that Kirby Yates?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Kirby Yates and Glass?
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Now I have got a really bad tramp. The Angels
are eleven and ten. They're off today their homestand continues
tomorrow versus the Pittsburgh Pirates. Now we have the NBA
talk in the very next segment. Game two of the
series for the Lakers t Wolves is tomorrow night. Reddick
JJ Reddick, the greatest coach in the world, said the
(05:28):
Lakers need.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
To play harder, play hard guys.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
And they should have scrimmaged more with the week off
going into Game one.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Wasn't that on Brownie? He was playing the role of
Anthony Edwards. Maybe didn't play it well enough and they
didn't know what was coming.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
It's possible. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
I didn't see that coming from Anthony Edwards, our guy
that was playing Anthony Edwards didn't look like that.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
I heard Ben Simmons played the joker and then he
said he didn't, so.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
I don't know I'm a joker.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Exit interviews in Dallas, Nico Harrison the GM was asked
again about the you Could trade and he said this, I.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
Didn't know that Luca was important to the to the
fan base. I didn't quite know it to the to
what level. But really the way we looked at it is,
you know, if you're putting on the if you're putting
the team on the floor, that's Kyrie, Clay, PJ, Anthony, Davis, Lively.
We filled that's a championship caliber team and we would
have been winning at a high level and that would
(06:23):
have quieted some of the outrage.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
But he tried to leave. The door was locked. Not kidding.
It's just an unbelievable You can't leave a real just
a confederacy of dunces in the Dallas Mavericks front office.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Now you can't leave, Nico, What are you gonna do?
Speaker 3 (06:41):
Now? Well, he just had to stand there. It's just
very awkward, is what it was. There was no beat
down like a Bronx story.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Any guys going out tonight where I said.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
It to me. Dallas is way too fluty duty of
a play way. I like fort Worth. The draft is
Thursday in Green Bay. The Titans hotels are teeming with people.
The Titans are on the clock with the number one pick.
The Browns pick second.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
But he knows it's one of the great convention cities
in the nation, easy to get to just very face.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
The Mall of America has been overtaken by youthful criminals
that this is a viable option for people.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
I guess Kana.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Patriots are on the fourth pick, so they're not on
the clock yet. The Jaguars fifth, Raider sixth, the Chargers
select twenty two. Overall, well, the Rams had the twenty
sixth pick in the NFL. Yeah, some others might want
to trade back even farther right, it's hard to say.
(07:45):
Nico Ia Malayama is a bruin. It happened over the
weekend where Colin was right. Thisally announced yesterday. We talked
to Wayne Cook last hour about it. UCLA immediately sending
out emails for twenty twenty five season seats. Joey Aguilar,
(08:07):
the guy who was at UCLA to be the quarterback
from Appalachian State is going to Tennessee.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
I wish I had the dramatic music.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Well, it's a real switcheroo. And then Madden Malayama, who
was committed to UCLA and left him at the altar
on signing day, has now entered the portal from Arkansas
and speculation is he's coming to UCLA to back up
his brother.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
It's all coming together.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
This family is going to be great for UCLA. I
see no problems in the future. Not true. And Matt,
as you know, this is La sr City, our home,
and something very exciting is starting to die.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
No doubt love it. Kings make their Stanley Cup run
beginning tonight, fourth can sative season that they will play
the Edmonton Oilers and freaking Connor McDavid and freaking Leon
dry Sidle. But this time the Kings have home ice advantage,
something they change exactly right, something they did not have
(09:14):
any prior three meetings. They'll drop the puck seven thirty
pm at the Crypt.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
All right, we'll be right back with the top story
of the day where we'll get deeper into the NBA
through the eyes of NBA Guru Matt money Smith.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Everybody knows.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Everybody knows how much Matt knows, which is a lot.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Just ask me.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Thanks for listening everybody. Petrosen Money happy to be with

and we are live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Don't
forget to listen on your app the smartphone or computer
or iPad. It's a great clear way on the eye
Heart Radio app to listen to the Petrosen Money Show.
(10:02):
Stream it live or podcast and listen later. We are
headed to Game two Clippers versus Nuggets tip off at
seven right here on AM five seventy LA Sports, and
right now it's time for the top story of the day.
I'm sorry of it.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I had the Lakers get an extra day to lick
their wounds, sort through their emotions, find their truth. The
Clippers not so much back at it. As you mentioned tonight. Well,
the one thing, listen, guys, one thing you don't want
to do is overreact to a game one. You know,
game ones can be weird the start of the playoffs.
Who's ready, who's not ready? Is someone flat footed? Are
(10:40):
there adjustments we need to make? Did we get jumped?
Did we not see something coming? With someone freaking out
because you know, just wasn't ready, wasn't ready for.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
The ant man took too many gummies on the plane,
like way too many. Hey man, you told me this
was five miligram's not ten, you jerk. I feel like
I'm gonna be high forever. Man, did you tell me?
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Not all losses are equal? And I'm trying not to
overreact to one game one? I alluded on Friday to
a Lakers Clippers conference final being firmly in the cards,
and of course both teams probably went out and lost
game one. Hey, guys, I believed it. I believe this
is firmly in play.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
Yeah. But like you said, Matt, cheer up, sleepy Gene,
Oh what can it mean? It's only one game? Right?
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I watched both games? Watched Yeah, it was fun.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
It's fun.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Saturday afternoon, Slash early Mean watched the Clipper game at
the house, and then I was watching the Lakers out
around Seal Beach, the Abbey and the Winebistro. Lakers looked
great while I was at the abbey. Perhaps I should
have stayed. You know, you had really just knocking down threes.
That figured out about off the ant man.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
That was part of JJ Reddick's truth after the game
that he wished you to stayed out at the app.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
Oh see, I missed the presser because I went to
a movie. But I should have listened. Because I didn't,
I thought I came next time. You know, I'll just stay,
So I jumped. You know, Luca's a forced all that stuff. Anyway,
I go to the winebe Strow a couple doors away,
and I was in for a real struggle man for
me and the Lakers, because we had the fan duel
(12:19):
on one screen. And I got a bunch of degenerate,
freaking drunk meatheads betting ponies saying, you can't change we
got too much money on this race. You can't change
the channel. And then I got a nice couple who
are watching their nephew playing baseball on ESPN two and
the sec I think it was like Florida Mississippi State,
and they're like, oh, yeah, our nephew's the right fielder,
(12:41):
so we're watching him. And I'm like, well, yeah, it's
the Laker games on though you have playoffs, Lakers, Uh,
it's Lakers Wolves going on right now. Second quarter. They
didn't want to change the channel. Finally, uh, to the
chagrin of a very vocally upset and let you know
how upset they were group of men. The horse race
(13:05):
the aqueduct was shoved aside in favor of Laker playoff basketball,
And as soon as they flipped it on and the
seven point advantage had been erased and the MAVs were
off and running, the dudes were like.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
This, seep, you know you happy, know Joabil.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Guys, I really don't care. I just felt like watching
it seemed a little more applicable than the horse races
that are going on at the freaking aqueduct. Anyway, would
have been better to keep the sport of Kings on
the Lakers. Apparently in the seven minutes I missed, got
jumped double digit deficit. The closest they got inside of
ten minutes was thirteen. Watched all of that, they were
(13:45):
never a threat. The route was on, home court advantage
was gone.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
They got pushed around big time.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
And those were the big questions that we had, you
know about, like how could this matchup get away from
the Lakers, And they were kind of answered. There is
that they don't have a lot of options. The Lakers
are not a deep team and We'll get to the
difference between them and the Clippers in a second, because
they there's really nothing there. It's like, yeah, if you're
(14:12):
gonna get pushed around, if nas Reed is going to
play that well, and I don't expect him to make
like seven of his eight threes in every game moving forward,
but it's like if he's going to push you around
and you're not able to take advantage of Rudy Gilbert,
you know by making outside shots, there's really not a
lot you can do, not a lot of movement that
you Bronnie ain't coming off that bench to check Anthony
(14:34):
Edwards because he played the role of Anthony Edwards in practice.
That's not an option. And there was not a lot
that they could do with Anthony Edwards, who had nine
assists in just one turnover. If you were pointing to
the shooting and just the twenty two points, yeah, Now
he ran that game.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
He played in a mature way, which he did not
in last year's playoffs.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
And then it was what you alluded to, was it
the Timberwolves going to have to adjust to the Lakers
small lineup, or where the Lakers gonna have to adjust
to Minnesota's big lineup, and I don't think either happened
because I think the Lakers were trying to figure out,
kind of what do we do here? Obviously it's not Jackson. Hey,
this guy's been in the game for like three minutes
and we're already down ten while he's out there. So
he got the boot and Lakers got, you know, just
(15:18):
kind of beat the hell. They didn't want to fight.
Lucas scored, but he couldn't create, you know, thirty seven
points great, one assist, five turnovers not great, and kind
of searching for the matchup that you wanted twenty seconds
into every shot clock is great if you're in Dallas.
But I would assume, and I'm all, I'm here for it, man,
(15:41):
I would assume that some people are gonna start planting
some seeds in the media, A certain group of someone
that tend to have their hands up, a number of
reporter and information people asses and flap their gums for them.
I would assume are going to start squawking a little
bit here. And maybe I missed it earlier today, I
(16:01):
was not watching the talking head shows about how Luca
was a little two ball dominant there and a certain
someone could have maybe benefited a little bit more by
being a little bit more involved as opposed to just
flopping around and missing shots and complaining about everything.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Oh, he's not a complainer. I heard Bob Meyers say
that on the broadcast Lebron is not a complainer.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
I don't think that was Billis. I think right it
was Billis. Yeah, because Bob Myers had the great moment
in the Clipper Nuggets game when Russell hit the wide
open three and said that's what I do, and he's like,
I guess that's what he does. I guess that is
what Russell Westbrook does, is make threes and clutch moments. Yeah, Billis,
(16:48):
that's right. He said he's not a complaint. Jay, he's
one of the worst complainers in the league in the
last and over each and every one of the last
twenty years history. Yes, bitching and moan a all game
long about the contact that he didn't want to fight through.
And Austin Reeves was not good. He just was was
(17:09):
out of sync. And they're gonna need him to be
better because that's all they got. They've got their big three,
and you know, Jackson Hayes is supposed to be playing.
I thought he'd been playing better lately. Again, could not
have him out there. They were like, see it, get out.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
The te Wolves have got a lot more where, you know,
when it comes to other guys they can depend on
than the Lakers. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
No, I think that's that's perfectly put right, because you
got Ruey who'd been on a heater, makes his first
few and then he can't find it after that, and
there's nowhere they can go. I mean, that's that, and
he was the team where he was and plus minuses
are stupid anyway, kind of in one game, but still,
I mean minus twenty six. The bench is non existent.
They only have three rotation guys. Finny Smith gave Vincent
(17:53):
the Vandalorian what vandalorian never heard him called.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
I call him that now all of time on the
Laker Basketball Network combined. But it grew on me.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Three for eleven and they're only an eight man. They're
only eight and then deep man three four eleven, eight
points in a combined seventy two minutes. And I think
that's kind of the that's that's something. Look, they're not
gonna get I can still see them winning this series.
I'm not gonna overreact, but man, they got a they
(18:26):
got to play much cleaner, a more flawless brand of
basketball than the Timberwolves do. If they're gonna win this
freaking series.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
You know who's gonna come in and save the day.
It might even be something you might even call a
musical interlude of sorts.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
A how's he gonna do that? How would he approach
saving the day? What would he have to do?
Speaker 3 (18:52):
Still dunking?
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Still dunking?
Speaker 3 (18:54):
They're shooting three, okay, having a good time, good time
the press and carry the team, carry gets the ball
from Luca, fall up up, and he's the king. Don't
forget he wears than ever twenty two.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Okay, well, I think there's a few things that are
certain in there. Right, he does wear the number twenty three.
That is a certain He is the self proclaimed king,
So I guess if you're gonna write a song and
support of him, he might as well allude to the
fact that he.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Is the king.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Is he gonna have fun out there? I don't know.
Certainly did not seem like it.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
If he's the focal point.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Right, if he's carrying that's right, that's sentences connected. I
forgot about that. If he's carrying the team. Then he's
gonna have fun. There was no X factor for the Lakers.
Lebron minus twenty two, Austin minus twenty five. I mentioned
Luca in the thirty seven points, but again just kept
hunting for the matchup that he wanted. Before you know,
it down to like five left on the shot clock,
over and over and all them turnovers. And really for
(19:50):
the Timberwolves, and I don't think Jaden McDaniels is gonna
go eleven or thirteen from the floor in every game.
Not gonna happen, Nor is nas Reed gonna can seven
of his eight threes or whatever it was. But again,
they have the ability to move around and to figure
it out, and to have Julius Randall turn the ball
(20:13):
over while he's just trying to beat up Lebron, which
I appreciate. I've never been a big fan of the
way Julius jew Randal, my man, she's the god Jo
Randal and the Zeppelin T shirt. But it did seem
like he was he was trying to, you know, bully
Lebron a little bit. Has some fun out here, kind
of get into this guy's chest, this old man who
can still dunk, who can shoot threes, who carries his
(20:36):
team and has fun wearing the number twenty three, And
that was quite entertaining. But again, they can still win
games when guys like Stevencenzo and Walker are missing all
of their threes, and it just feels like the Lakers
have to play a much cleaner brand of basketball, which
(20:57):
means Hatchamura and Finny Smith and all those guys are
gonna have to play better. It's like, if you're as
we just kind of flip it to the other game,
the Clipper game. It's not even close. Like the Clipper game,
you walk away from going the hell, man, how the
hell did they lose that game? You turn the ball
like just crazy turnovers, absolutely mind boggling high school CIF
(21:23):
Southern Section semi final style turnover.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
These guys like James Harden and Kawhi Leonard.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Yeah, yeah, what are you doing? Bouncing the ball off
their legs and losing the ball out about like the
most entertaining component of the Clipper game. And I'm sure
this is like an I can hear the exhale and
the incredibly close together eye roll of follow Adam Simmons
(21:50):
is hilarious. It is freaking hilarious to watch that guy
play basketball because as he gets closer and closer to
the rim, he he begins to look around in desperation
more and more for a way to get rid of
the basketball. And the passes are just crazy. They make
(22:11):
no sense. He's right at the rim and he's trying
to thread a ball around two defenders to find somebody
else for a contested shot because he is so adverse
to shooting. The mental block that is in that dude's
head is uh, is really wild to watch. I don't
know how tylu can put him on the floor. I
(22:32):
don't feel like any of his minutes minutes really produced
anything positive. I guess I appreciate that he's willing to
mix it up a little bit.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Right playing playoff bass defensively thought that.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
But it's like you get a rebound and here's this
guy on the break and you're like, oh, yeah, that's right,
there's Ben Simmons. I remember what this is? Th Oh
what was that? He just threw it to a fan
because there was no one underneath the hoop and he
didn't want to take the shot. It's just crazy, uh,
But yeah, you turn the ball over twenty times, especially
in critical situation the way they did, and it's like, yeah,
that's you said it. It's James Harden, it's Kawhi Leonard,
(23:04):
and and they have like a million different ways they
can adjust, right, Like there are a ton of They
don't have to play Ben Simmons. If Norman Pile's going
to keep jacking up dumb ass shots instead of getting
the ball to Zubots or Kawhi or Harden when they
come up the floor and dribble into contested threes, just
pull them and put Derek Jones in there, like you
(23:25):
can do that, Like the there's there's a way to
get around that. The Lakers do not have that. I
would assume the Nuggets are are feeling a little And look,
you played Kawhi Leonard and freaking it was an overtime game,
but you played those guys like forty minutes, so obviously
they thought they needed to have that one and they
didn't get it. That's probably not great for them. And
(23:45):
you hope there's not carryover with just one day if
you're a Clipper fan. But at the same time, you
watch that game, and I mean, Russell Westbrook's making threes
while all he has and all he has to do.
It's what I do well know. Also, what you do,
Russell is when there's sixteen seconds left in the game,
you're up two and you've got the ball, you're not
(24:06):
supposed to dribble to the basket when there's still thirteen
seconds left. That's also what you do. And he ended
up getting bailed out when the ball should have been
turned over and found its way into the hands of
Aaron Gordon. But like you can't, the Nuggets cannot get
away with winning this series. If Russell Westbrook is going
to play, I don't know what he played thirty minutes like,
that's just that's not I don't believe that's a tenable
(24:27):
approach to winning this series. So wildly entertaining, I'm looking
forward to Game two tonight. I do believe it was
scheduled as such piece so we could listen to it
here with the with Adam Oslin fully functional employee, Adam
coming up at the top of the hour, going into
tip off at seven PMC, whether or not the Clippers
can get this thing evened up. And I feel a
(24:48):
little bit better about my not so bold at the time,
but perhaps bold now proclamation that I do believe the
Clippers and Lakers.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
Yeah, a weekend really change things for you. Man, you
looked great and now you look like.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
A fool, look like a not waker, a clown, a clown,
a clock.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
We'll be back. Thank you for listening, everybody. The Petro
sand Money Show with a Dodger day off in Chicago
and a Modello meets a lot of Monday. You know
it's not a real meat if it's not made with MODELO,
(25:30):
a solid reward for those with a fighting spin. MODELO
is the mark of a fighter. And when you maror
the wear the mark of a fighter, you wear it.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Forever, unlike some things that aren't worn forever.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Well, when they tell you forever forever never is a promise,
but so is forever.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
Forever's a long time, almost unimaginable amount, certainly more than
a decade, I would think forever is it's a Beasley
nine year. I mean, what do we do it tonight?
Speaker 3 (26:09):
We're heading what number eight?
Speaker 2 (26:12):
Forever?
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Forever? They lost him? Welcome to the Nico Iyamdayama era. Forever?
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Can I have number eight?
Speaker 6 (26:32):
Can't do it?
Speaker 1 (26:33):
No?
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Yes? Yes?
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Forever.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Traditions be damn.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Forever.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
You keep your mouth shut Cornell Stewart, what did you
ever do?
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Am? He should ahead? And the first season was special, man,
that shuts your whole first four games man, at least
the TCU game, I mean, wait a wait about the gates?
Speaker 3 (27:00):
Fine? Good miss Clippers Nuggets Tonight should be very exciting.
You're gonna have to wait another night. If you want
to watch Lebron ball. He will shoot three.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
He's dominating the ball. Not okay, Lucas. Got to get
rid of that ball.
Speaker 7 (27:22):
Man.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
You can't keep hunting them picking rolls. Bron's not touching
the ball enough. This guy thinks he is. I don't
know who he thinks his teammates are.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
I'm not gonna get enough credit you're doing out there, man,
I'm worried about it. It's wrong with you. Man, Forever,
I don't I want to. I want to watch Lebron
shoot threes forever. And the performance in Game one made
me feel like I might not.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Have so can Marcus Johnson. I saw he can still dunk.
Doesn't really matter. I saw Clyde Draswood dunk. Lebron can
still dunk is not really that great of a statement,
but that's why he's a king. I mean, I would
imagine former NBA players that could dunk while they were
(28:03):
NBA players that are forty years old. It's probably a
ninety five to ninety seven percent clip can still dunk.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Well, I know, Matt, But you know, do you sit
there and go over Wordsworth and pick apart all his stuff?
I mean, come on, you're dead at a lifeguid. Birthday

Speaker 3 (28:25):
You have news, it's scoltish. What's your wisht hi?
Speaker 2 (28:30):
Do you have an understand the word I'm saying. God
your sal I owned the Scotish.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
NEWSWO hundred and three today. Alistair McClain born in Glasgow,
father a minister. He fought in the Second World War
at nineteen and many adventures in the Royal Navy saw
action in many theaters. Matt, and this isn't like you
(28:57):
know the haha hole on Piko and the for the
Pasadena Playhouse. We're talking about the Atlantic Theater, the Mediterranean Theater,
the Far East theater. She perverted like me? Would she
go down on you in a theater? Better? After discharge,
(29:19):
he studied English at the University of Glasgow. He had
a great love that he kept forever for the sea, forever, forever, forever.
And his brother Ian was a master mariner, even more
so than Ken Griffy Junior. For a little while, Alistair
McClain was a hospital porter and then a teacher. But
(29:43):
we celebrate Hi Mat because he was a writer. He
wrote first about his naval experiences in World War Two.
The first novel, HMS Ulysses, leaned heavily on his brother,
and then his second novel, which was a gi antic
success they still talk about in the leagues today. The
(30:03):
Guns of Navarone, right, the Guns of.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
Yeah Freaking Peck.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
Based on an attack on the Greek island of Milos,
but set on the fictitious Greek island of Navarone. Hugely
successful movie, hugely successful book.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Awesome movie. Yeah, I've never read the book. Movies awesome.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
The Guns of Navarone sold. I read the book. The
Guns of Navarone sold four hundred thousand copies in six months.
Pretty good. The movie has Greg Peck, who spoke German
so poorly, and his character was supposed to be affluent
in German. They had to dub all his German lines.
(30:49):
Tony Quinn of course, Oh yeah. He was shot not
only in the Greek island of Rhodes, but on the village,
in the village that I got married in Lindos Roads.
The guns of Navarone made Alistair McLain very rich, and
he resented paying taxes and left for Switzerland. His other
(31:10):
most famous book was ice Stationed Zebra or as they
say in England Zebra, based on Cold War submarine type
of stuff. From nineteen sixty three. He wrote a lot
of original screenplays with the accompanying novel, because he did
not see himself as a literary man, but more of
a businessman who bangs out content.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
Bang it out, dude, little like us man.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
The most successful of his screenplay accompanying with the novel
was Where Eagles Dare Clint Eastwood and Dick Burton Matt Yeah.
Through the seventies and eighties he concentrated on screenplays pumped
them out. His style was described by a critic as
hit him with everything but the kitchen sink, then give
(31:58):
him the sink and whin they raised their heads, drop
the plumber on them.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
He was a drunk and many many of his a
drug show.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
They tried to say like he said he was tortured
in Japan, that they pulled his teeth and during the wars,
and now his son's are like, that's just puffing drunken ravens.
Nothing so schoolishnooze. Uh. Writers that were most inspired by him,
the guy that wrote all the john Wick books, Derek
(32:28):
Coolstad most inspired by Alistair john Wick. Bangs had a
lot of content too, because a lot of.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Dudes, Oh yeah, he's His content is blood and guts.
He's got it in spades.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
Spots a love guy.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
The greatest collector in the history of the world at
sixty seven years old today. What does he collect?
Speaker 4 (32:54):
Hot wheels cars in childhood seemed to go hand in hand.
Nearly every boy had a cast car or two that
he played with as a child. But for Mike Zarnach,
hot wheels cars are more of a passion.
Speaker 7 (33:07):
I go to the store just about every day to
find new things. I check auction sites, I check wherever
I go in little antique stores. I'm always looking for
something that I don't have, which which isn't much anymore.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
That's because he has a lot of cars eight twenty
eight to be exact, He's the Guinness Book of world
records holder for owning the most different hot Wheels cars,
and a portion of his collection is being held at
the Children's Museum in Utica.
Speaker 3 (33:34):
Well, it's interesting is sometimes even though we've got four.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
Floors cerator at the museum.
Speaker 5 (33:38):
Here per floor thousands of exhibits, people will sometimes come
and say, I just want to see the hot wheels.
Speaker 4 (33:46):
The collection includes everything from racetracks to downtown city models,
to show cars and even nascars. You'll be hard pressed
to find a collection this in depth anywhere, which is
why it appears in the newest publication of Ripley's Believe
it or Not, as one of the largest public displays
of hot wheels collections in the country.
Speaker 7 (34:07):
Nice, I'm really stoked about that.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
What about the curator page hushy feature.
Speaker 7 (34:13):
In the new Ripley's book, It mentions it says that
the exhibit is at the Children's Museum in Utica, New York.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
So that's real cool.
Speaker 4 (34:20):
And after decades of collecting, Zarnock loves being able to
showcase his collection to the public.
Speaker 7 (34:26):
For the kids, I'm able to show it to everybody
that wants to come and see it. There's things here
that most collectors will never ever see ever.
Speaker 4 (34:34):
And you can be sure that he'll continue to collect
for many more years to come. In Utica Jim Gibbons
News ten.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
Now, let's go in News ten now Utica Local News.
Speaker 3 (34:44):
I'm telling you, Matt, people say this show doesn't change.
People say our show can't shift and do different things.
How about that? How about that Judica News?
Speaker 2 (34:52):
How about Michael Zarnack Utica, New York's finest massive hot
wheels connecting collection. You heard it? There a Guinness World Record.
Ripley's believe it or not, he says, by his count
he's collected more than twenty thousand toy cars at the
eighty one to twenty eight. It's a little bit low.
As a kid, he was into toy cars, blue collar family,
(35:15):
and he liked chasing the racing dreams. So while he
was in high school, he was working forty hours a
week as an auto mechanic so he could fuel his
chase and his dream of racing motocross. He also used
the money to build drive, sell show cars and drag
racing cars. Fell into the illegal street racing scene for.
Speaker 3 (35:33):
A bit oh hardcore biker boy.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
Series of events occurred that see him kidnapped for a
length of time at one of those illegal street racing things.
Escaped a story that was bought by Hollywood. Came here
to write the screenplay with Christopher Titus, but it did
not work out.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
He's kind of weird. I didn't really want to run
it with that.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Instead, he wrote the book as a novel and that
was able to spin into the Ultimate Guide to Hot
Wheels variations, The Hot Wheels Collector's Guide, now out of print.
He does the school tours and appearances, He does the conventions,
he does the toy shows, and of course, as you
heard there, he has a permanent exhibit at the Children's
(36:19):
Museum of Utica. Did a little bit of direct to
VHS acting. How about this in the background, by the way,
turn that up for me, Kate a little bit, give
me a little bit of the background. It's the hot
Wheels theme song.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
It's how much actress for you?
Speaker 1 (36:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (36:44):
Yeah, Hot wheels, Hot Wheels, Wheel, hot Wheel.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
Hot Wheels. Let's raise I like it right, Happy sixty
seventh to a hot wheel collector.
Speaker 3 (36:58):
You think you'd be really passed if you like put
a match box like drop the matchbox car into there.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Snuck it in the exhibit.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
I never understood the match box people, you know. I
was always like, hey, look at this sweet Hot Wheels
and'd be like, yeah, but i'd love match box like
f you, f you, buddy.
Speaker 2 (37:15):
I feel like the yeah, you know what, I don't
know what the hell I feel I was gonna say.
I felt like the matchbox were more technical, like the
doors opened, the hood opened, and stuff like that. I
feel like that's kind of what the matchbox angle was.
How dare you kind of was though, you know, tell
me about match box to check it out. I can
open the hatch on this gremlin with this matchbox.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
So you're the guy that uh, you're that guy. You're
the guy grew up hated.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
What is that split rear window Stingray doing in there?
That's a matchbox? Oh we got so we put a
fast one on you there.
Speaker 3 (37:49):
Zarnak is Matchbox and Hot Wheels both, Mattel, that's a
good question.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
Always felt like they were head to head competitors right.
Speaker 3 (37:59):
Right and front, like Gobots versus Tree.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
Exactly, they're gonna be only one and obviously Hot Wheels
one out.
