Speaker 1 (00:00):
River of the fall season will hit this weekend starting
this evening, bringing one to three inches of rain and
peak wind gus of fifteen to forty miles an hour.
Seattle drivers paying over fifty percent above the national average
for gas prices at four dollars and sixty four cents
a gallon.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
But it's all the highway gas tax.

Speaker 1 (00:20):
Right, That's good stuff, bastards, you love it. Government shutdown
rolls into day twenty three, following a marathon twenty two
hour Senate floor speech from Oregon Senator Jeff Murkley highlighting
the mounting tensions. Furloughed seven hundred and fifty thousand federal
employees and many more working without pay. Tropical store Melissa,
slowly churning in the Caribbean Sea could soon dump catastrophic

(00:41):
flooding onto Jamaica Haiti, and the Dr King Charles's state

the first British monarch to pray with a pope in
five hundred years. This is bubbling in the NBA right now.
Portland Trailblazers head coach Chauncey Billups and Miami heat guard
Terry Rosier have been arrested in connection with a federal

(01:01):
investigation into sports betting. NBA has no immediate comment. The
league has investigated Rosier previously and is still looking to
the actions of former Detroit player Malik Beasley. So this
is who they have so far, and Cash Bettel from
the FBI is going to make a statement on it
later today and the uh.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
That's probably happening right now is ten o'clock Eastern time.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
The idea that more people are going to be uncovered
as part of this betting group or gambling group is likely,
I'd say another handful of people. Bon Jovie heading out
on tour for the first time in four years following
John's vocal surgery. The band announced to seven to eight
Forever tour that consists of four nights at Madison Square
Garden and three stops in Europe in sports crack In

(01:42):
at Winnipeg and Thursday Night football on Amazon. Is the
Chargers hosting the vices.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
Otherwise, okay, how.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
About offering up showdowns.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Play live auction, so you get to come in and
you get to play showdown live, you get to be
We can't do that. You have to be on the
phone able to put them on the hallway on the phone.
That would work. You get, you get, you get to
come in, hang out of it. But that's early. We
typically have them minute at nine am so that when
the show's over we can all leave out. They're here

(02:12):
at seven forty five.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
That's really nine listeners to bid, so they might not
even know a Puget sounds.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
Why are you leaning into the fact that nobody knows
who we are?

Speaker 1 (02:21):
I know the room, I don't know who's going to
be there.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
I'm not comfortable yet. But but you don't go. We
are the number one morning show in Seattle right now,
So why am I doing this crap for free? Anyway? No,
that's not where I was going with that. What you
didn't even be doing it?

Speaker 1 (02:37):
That's not what you're right bender Forget it.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
Not what I was saying. You know. What I was
saying was stop going in with the preconceived notion that
they don't know who we are the number one station.
We are. Come on, I quit. That's it. I've reached
the apex. Oh thanks for the call. I'm not sure
that's exactly where you thought it is gonna go, Nole,

(03:01):
you know, it's quite entertaining good coming up with Jody
and Bender Adam Sandler's Coming It Down Climate Pledge next
Wednesday night. Brand new picture has been posted another stellar
Jody brother selfie. Thank you and I am once again
making my seasonal statement. Go to Instagram at Jody and

(03:24):
Bender and go look you bastards.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Everybody's tastes are different way, that's what makes the world
go around.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
So Jody has an event coming up. Yeah, she wants
to know if she should avoid the embarrassment or embrace it.
I say, what embarrassment? I do this all the time
and it always works out pretty well for me.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
So there's an auction for Josh's Select Baseball Organization. A
lot of people will be there, most of them I
don't know, because I really am only friendly with our team. Sure,
I don't know all the other teams, So it's going
to be a whole room of strangers basically, which is fine.
I love MCing events. When you're the auctioneer, you're the
one doing the auction. But when you're the MC, you're

(04:06):
standing on the stage, you're funny, you're heckling with the crowd,
you're making jokes, you're helping with the auction, but you're
not in charge of it. They did ask me, would
you be willing to offer up an item from the
radio station, like tickets or a studio tour, And I
was like, Uh, we could do a studio tour. You
could come in sit for an hour in the show.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
And uh oh it's a half hour, and then we'll
give you a tour of the intersection and you.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
Can walk around whatever. You've offered that before, and so
I know you were cool with it. I didn't even
ask you. And she said do you want to do
it in the live auction or do you want to
put it in the silent auction? And I'm first I
said live auction, but then I was thinking better of it.
And I imagine myself on stage with nobody bidding on it,

(04:52):
and me standing on stage and me having to say like, oh,
so none of you want to come to the radio station.
That's the bit that doesn't feel fun to me. No,
that's the bit. See you've done this before.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
Well I have because when I do events, I am
both the auctioneer and or the MC, so I wear
multiple hats at these kind of things. And the events
that have had this be an item sometimes the bidding
is slow, and when it's slow, you lean into it

(05:24):
and you make fun of the fact. That's the bit.
I mean, you're not expecting this thing to go for
five grand, are you? I mean, if I always look
at it and say, look like you know, one big
car goes up, all righty, there's a hundred bucks to
five two hundred, and then maybe one goes up kind
of cautiously. Okay, there's two. Do I have three? All right,
there's two? Do I have two fifty? There's two?

Speaker 1 (05:43):
Do I have two?

Speaker 2 (05:44):
Twenty five? Do I have two? Oh one? I'm not
giving this away and going back to the radio station
and telling Jody I only got two hundred dollars for this,
and then miraculously, somehow it always clears a thousand dollars. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
But then after you've like you know, semi bullied them
into meting on it. So then they come in here
and we have to be entertaining because specifically we're like,
give me your money right now. No.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
No, well, first of all, hold on, they have to
pay that night, right, So it isn't like they're coming
in here, okay, be funny and then I'll give you
my money. No, no, that's not the way it works.

Speaker 1 (06:22):
Put in the silent auction, then it's there for whoever was.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
But then there's no pressure, there's no there is no bullying.
You got to make sure you put it in the
live auction to get the most money you can and
lean into the embarrassment. That's the bit.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
For most of my adult life, I have tried to
not be publicly embarrassed.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
Okay, but that's the bit. Yeah, this is funny, especially
you'll remember this, especially especially. Everything we do on this
program is self deprecating. It's why on earth with an
item that you're going to auction off to come here
and and then and then you lean in and go, okay,
here's the deal. And I'm just giving you stuff to

(07:02):
say on stage to try to rack up the price.
Not only do you get to come in, maybe we'll
get uber each, we'll get a couple of bagels.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
When this is twenty seven dollars bagels, Yeah that's right.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
Yeah, Well, I mean, well they're gonna spend at least
two hours we gotta spend. Don't let it go for
a thousand, don't let it go for less than a thousand.
A thousand, Yeah, I don't you get to rack it up.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
But I don't know how big money these people are.
I didn't go to the auction. Doesn't matter, it doesn't matter.
What if it's one of those dead rooms.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
Yeah, yeah, don't do that.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
I was in a dead room the other day. Well,
plea that you got like something that's clearly worth right
X amount of dollars and you don't even get near it.
But that might be.

Speaker 2 (07:40):
A dead room. Then go Look. If I'm not.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
Worth I'll walk off the stage right now.

Twenty twenty five cruise season at the port set records
with almost two million passengers and one point two billion
dollars in economic benefit. The government shutdown rolls into day
twenty three following a marathon twenty twenty following a marathon
twenty two hours Senate floor speech from Oregon Senator Jeff Murkley.
Currently seven hundred and fifty thousand federal employees are furloughed

(11:50):
and many more are working without pay. US military conducted
strikes this week on two alleged drug smuggling boats in
the Pacific. All people were killed on the vessels. Since
the Startupstember, at least thirty seven people in total have
been killed in the nine strikes on suspected drug boats.
Experts warned that one hundred million dollars worth of jewelry
taken from the Louver in a brazen daytime heist will

(12:11):
be dismantled for its gems and medals, destroying artifacts dating
back to the Napoleonic era. As investigators try and figure
out where the thieves are and where the jewels could be,
the museum's director has revealed that no security cameras were
monitoring the second floor balcony where the suspects randomly pulled
up with one of those ladder trucks like from Arrested Development,
hopped over the balcony and stole the stuff. You'd think

(12:33):
the louver would have some tighter, tighter locks in place,
but I guess they don't. NCAA is allowing college athletes
to bet on professional sports starting.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
November first, which.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
Is ironic because today in the news, Portland Trailblazers head
coach Chauncey Billups and Miami Heat guard Terry Rosier have
been arrested in connection with a federal investigation into sports betting.
The NBA had no immediate comment. This is going to
be a huge story and get bigger and bigger. You're
going to have to get your face scanned if you
want to use Tinder. Tinder announcing a first of its
kind facial verification feature to help confirm users are real

(13:07):
and match their profile photos photos. So I don't know
if they're trying to like make it so that you
can't use a twenty year old picture of yourself when
you look different slash better, or if there's actually a
problem with people.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
Well, that's the closing is different people. Yeah, that's the
cliche though. Yeah, you don't look anything like your profile,
and why you would ever set yourself up like that?
You know what I mean, Like, you know what you
look like, and you know what your picture looks like
from twenty years ago.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
You're gonna walk into that restaurant, bar, whatever, and that
person's gonna see you and there's gonna be a look
of disappointment on their face. I know you're setting yourself
up in disappointment. Yeah, it's like, oh, you look different
than the picture you sent me.

Speaker 2 (13:51):
It's not what I signed up for.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
In Sports Cracking at Winnipeg and Thursday in Football and Amazon,
the Chargers, Hooven High, Jody and Bender, I know the
reason I tune in is to listen to how much
fun you guys are having on the radio. Have a
great morning.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
I mean, look, it's an adage that I've been living
by my entire career. If I'm having fun, fantastic. If
you guys are having fun, that's just a bonus. It's
right because we're actually here, we're having fun, that's for sure.
I mean, you guys aren't actually paying attention to everything
we're saying, right.

Speaker 4 (14:17):
Good morning, Jody and Bender, this is Carrie in Tacoma.
I have a song for you for damn, I haven't
heard that whole entire song in a really long time.
How about tonight Tonight tonight by Genesis?

Speaker 2 (14:34):
What a good one that might show up at nine
this morning?

Speaker 1 (14:38):
Oh that's a very very good suggestion.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
You never know what will be played at ninety five. Hi,
Jody and Bender, I like to hear Mike's the Mechanics
silent running, because damn not heard that moment.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
That's not what we're doing.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
We said, we said, we're saying Genesis. Yeah, not the
solo projects that Mike Roth Theford had with Mike and
the morning we're doing Genesis. Yeah, we're doing will be
off now. However, see, I don't know if that people,
if anybody's gonna want that. Okay, no more promise. I
promise you the list of things that we're gonna ask you,

(15:17):
I'll discuss and we'll throw it out to the audience.
What would you do for a billion dollars?

Speaker 3 (15:24):
The following program is rated tv M a l V.
It contains strong language, violence, and nudity. It is intended
only for mature audiences.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
Did you eat a raw piece of chicken.

Speaker 1 (15:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
Would you drink a gallon of toilet water that has
not been cleaned?

Speaker 1 (15:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (15:42):
Eat a bowl of clipped toenails.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
The following program is rated tv M a l V.
It contains strong language, violence, and nudity. It is intended
only for mature audiences.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
Yeah, I do that for a billion dollars. That's freaking gross.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
Eat a bowl of spaghetti sprinkled with dandruff.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Yeah, what are you talking about?

Speaker 2 (16:01):
Drink a gallon of expired milk? Sure? Yeah, take a
shot of someone's don't finish that.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
I'm gonna bar but yeah, I'd do it, yep, for
a billion dollars. Oh what wouldn't you do to your
body for a billion?

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Sandwich of live cockroaches? Yeah, you're gonna mention something I
wouldn't do. You eat a cupcake made of ear wax?

Speaker 1 (16:38):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (16:39):
Wait, hold on, I think we found a line.

Speaker 1 (16:42):
Oh that's truly disgusting, but yes, I'd give it a shot. Oh,
think of fear factor, like what those people did and
on survivor what they do like for a billion dollars,
far less money. I would do half this stuff for
far less mone Eat a.

Speaker 2 (17:00):
Peanut butter and toe jam sandwich. Hell yeah, eat your
own severed foot.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
Oh, now we're talking. Okay. I was wondering when the
cob was gonna step in here he is, Hello, We're
gonna seve your foot.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
Okay. So the only thing on this list, because there
are a few other things that I can't say on
the radio. Yeah there are. So you're telling me that
the line the one that you actually paused and hesitated
on if there was a briefcase in here with a
billion dollars, and that'd be like a big ass briefcase
because we're talking a billion dollars again. Yeah, you don't
know the diff between a million and a billion time.

(17:37):
Let's do it in time. A million seconds is I
think eleven days. A billion seconds is thirty one years.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Yeah, it's very different.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
And the only thing you hesitated on was the cupcake
made of earwax, just because I thought I was gonna gag.
And I don't think that that was good for the radio.
That wasn't the grossest one. I think the grossest one
is the Tonel's. Actually that's pretty gross. Text messages.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
Yeah, but for a billion dollars, you know what I
could do with a billion dollars. You know, I would
do great stuff with a billion dollars text.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
Oh my god, I did not know I was going
to be tuning you out while laughing at everything you've
done so far.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
And all these are really gross? Are would you do
any of these? I would have to do it, Yeah,
for a billion dollars, billion dollars. Yeah, that's how sad
we are as a society. Well, I mean, this is
the setup. We're just working with the confines of what
we have.

Speaker 2 (18:38):
It's a sad state of affairs for society that we
would do things like this for money.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
What's even sader is I would do it for far
less than a billion.

Speaker 2 (18:46):
I oh, spanning the glue to find the news you
didn't know?

Speaker 3 (18:51):
You know, you know that Daily Vender gazette.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
Now here's benders but by the Seattle International Auto Show
starting the weekend of November fourteenth. It's not really ripped
from the pages of What the hell is wrong with You?
It's more of a list. It's a list Jody okay,
and it may cause some controversy. I cannot help with

(19:19):
any of these because I don't do scary movies.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
According to a brand new survey, these are the ten
best horror movies ever made? II on this and I
can tell you that I have seen one.

Speaker 1 (19:46):
Well, start at ten, don't start at one. Carrie, Carrie's Great,
The Original.

Speaker 2 (19:52):
Say Lo or The One hundred and Twenty Days of
Sodom nineteen seventy five. Saw Frankinkenstein, Sure, nineteen thirty one. Yeah,
Audition nineteen ninety nine, never even heard of it. Night
of the Living Dead, Sure, nineteen sixty eight. Rosemary's Baby
Excellent and there was pretty Good too, nineteen sixty eight.

(20:15):
Jaws Jaws nineteen seventy five. The reason I don't go
in the ocean is the only or the lake or
a dark lake, or a pool or a pool at night,
because honestly, I just freak myself out.

Speaker 1 (20:26):
It's not even fun.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
Would you consider Jaws a horror movie?

Speaker 1 (20:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (20:31):
Huh?

Speaker 1 (20:32):
What genre? Would you put in?

Speaker 2 (20:35):
Suspense action? Yeah? I wouldn't care. Yeah, I wouldn't consider Yeah,
But like I don't do scary movies, right, but I would.
I've seen Jaws a dozen or so times.

Speaker 1 (20:48):
I think in a scary movie you have to have
a villain, like a bad guy, and as we all know.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
Well, the villain in Jaws is the mayor, right, No,
the villain the shark.

Speaker 1 (20:57):
The villain in Jaws three is the shark when it
travels to the crib.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
This time it's personal. This time it's personal. So Jaw's
three is a horror movie for sure. No, Jaws three
was Jaws three D in the water park. It's the
fourth one that it chased the family and she was like,
what this jersey? Do you remember? Do you remember? It
was what's his face? Uh? No, that way he was

(21:24):
in one and two? But Jaws three D was what's
his face? In the in the water park? Right, they said,
don't worry, this glass is very thick. Oh my god,
in the horrible cgi of the shark coming out it.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
Yeah, he's like, I'm getting in there.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
Psycho, sure, The Exorcist, Yes, Texas, Chainsaw Mascer is number one.
I've seen one of those movies, and that would be Jaws.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
Really. Yep, those are all great, all the ones I've seen.
I mean, obviously Psycho, Texas, James on Masker. I think
that they're missing. I think they're missing.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
Saw. The Saw was not a scary movie. Saw the
original one, Yeah, with with Always, which I thought it
was Carrie always.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
I feel like we've had this conversation before.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
It was a terrible movie, the original saw with him
at the I remember laughing in the theater, but it
was shocking. Yeah, saw his leg.

Speaker 1 (22:23):
And also all the conjuring movies.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
The scariest movie I have ever seen, and I've mentioned
this before, is Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte. It's like a
black and white movie. I believe Betty Davis is in it.
Scared the hell out of me as a kid.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
You have never said the forewords Hush Hush, Sweet Charlottish
Hush Sweet Charlotte.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
Is is a scary horror movie. I remember the head
rolling down the stairs. And why would you be watching?
I don't, I don't know why.

Speaker 1 (22:52):
That's super random for you, my Goodwill hunting Princess Bride.
You ain't seen nothing, but you've seen Hush Hush Eat Charlotte.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
That's so random. But yes, it's true. Yeah, I've never
even heard of them.
