And Chris Young from the MLB Network Enthusiastic Man, thirteen
year MLB VET was an All Star with the d Backs.
(02:34):
If you remember, he's going to join us as the
MLB Network is so good to us.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
If we had him on before, I feel like we have.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
I'm not sure. I didn't remember us talking to Brock
Stewart though, and talking about his dad, Rod Stewart or
anything like that.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Cliff Floyd was a guest on the show, I think,
not Chris Lloyd was. Yeah, not Chris Young.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
All right, So Chris Young of the MLB Network will
join us in the four o'clock hour, and we'll double
up in the four o'clock hour with Jay Hare. Oh positivity, baby,
I don't know. That's why we're testing. That's the Mark Twain, Matt.
You know, we want to stick our ore in the Mississippi.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
If he becomes a third Panic brother, you know we're
in serious trouble.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Well, and there is a lot of panic in America,
There's no doubt about it. And people have called for it.
They may want it, they feel it in their bones,
the panic. Perhaps it's too late for panic. I mean
I I I feel like we played the alarm.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Are you saying we're going to resignation? That we've had
to panic and we've arrived at resignation.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
I didn't get this text the other day or last night,
and it hit me, Matt, It hit me like like
a diamond bullet in my forehead when it said what
comes after the panic brothers, denial brothers, apathy brothers. Yeah,
(04:07):
that's the uh, wake up, Dodgers, school's in session. Alarm,
Please God, this is the your alarm clock told you
to wake up on July third when you had a.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Nine game lead, stop hitting snooze.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
And of course, if you're on a submarine and you
see some depth charges heading your way, as the Dodgers
do with the Padres on the docket, you might want
to scream. And of course, Matt, if somebody's trying to
(04:52):
steal your m R two in nineteen ninety two, that's
the ultimate panic right there. I'm not the Dodgers have
(05:20):
to do. I'm not panicked about that.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
I'm not panicked about anything.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
There should be panic. The Dodgers are one of the
worst teams in baseball since early July. It's a terrible,
terrible thing.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
We have not had to experience this well, I mean
maybe a decade a decade plus. We're talking about the
Dodgers just just so wow, that's not true. They did
lose out with but they won one hundred and six
games when the Giants bested them for the division with
one hundred and seven game. Yeah, they have had their
(06:03):
failures in the postseason, but those come so immediately in
the moment. You know, over the course of three or
four days.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
Those those hit you like like when you fly off
the water slide at the hotel and all the chlorine
goes up your nose. Those those happened really fast. This
was a long, slow fart of.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Death, yes, and was a month plus and.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
We didn't even see it coming. You know, we kind
of danced our way through this. This hit us in
the back of the head like a boomerang. I mean, sure,
we played the Panic Brothers a few times, we went
through the motions, Matt, but I don't think we truly
panicked enough, because look at where they are now.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
I don't think we suspected it was going to get
this bad. I think we believed and I wouldn't say
that they were tropes or platitudes. I think we just
kind of believed the a that's all gonna work out.
Come on, guys will get healthy. We're the Dodgers. You
mean to tell me that? And I mean all that
think about this comp le eat free fall happening in
(07:02):
the midst of Mookie having one of his best stretches
as a Dodger, hitting over four hundred, like he came
out of his funk.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
And yeah, that's the worst part. It's like the Dodgers
are the Angels. Oh TODDI comes out, strikes out a
bunch of dudes, hits a triple to start the game, and.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
He's knocking him in.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
They still lose in disappointing fashion. Why because they're not hungry?
Where is the hunger? Where are you satiated? Are you full?
Are you fat? Cats? Is that why you let the
Angels and Roger Lodge urinate on our face, off our face.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
I like to think they put it in a cup
and then just threw it at us. I've seen that happen,
as opposed to us standing there and saying, oh, yeah,
this is happening.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
The horn blow, the horn, blow the tsunami horn. This
is a terrible, terrible thing that's happened, and it's a
very difficult thing to swallow.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Though.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
We do have tickets to give away so you can
come and support the Dodgers, and we do have those
three guests coming on and we also have three things Thursday,
and for some three is.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Three things.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
For some three is a very lucky number. So we'll
see if things can turn around. Can they get worse
for the Dodgers, it's hard to imagine the most anticipated
season in Dodger history where Dylan Hernandez wrote an article
that they were going to win one hundred and twenty games.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Yeah, it's hard they can still do that, I think.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Yeah, well, it's hard to imagine that's still possible that
they would fall out of the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Right, Yes, I think it would be very hard for
them to miss the playoffs considering where the Reds are
and where they are right now.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
But the Dodgers are so bad and they're playing just
about as bad, yeah as anybody in baseball.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
I mean, if you if you kind of just they've
played so bad that you would want to say, there's
no way, you know, as they currently sit in the
number two hole, a game and a half back of
the or a half game back of the Cubs. Well
you know what, actually they're only four and a half
up on the Reds. So yes, it could get that bad.
(09:27):
It could get that much worse. It could get that bad. Indeed,
I was looking at Mookie's game blog, and I think
it encapsulates this season. Right, a guy who was in
the midst of the worst stretch of his career, and
since he snapped out of his funk, he went over one, two, three, four, five,
six games in a rows.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Like a baptismal pastor pulls a child out of the
water in the river, Jordan Vassay delivered Mookie bats.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
He was hitting two thirty one on the worth of August,
a game they lost three to two. He snapped out
of it. The following night they go, he goes three
to four and they win twelve to six, and he
has gotten at least one hit in every single game.
Since the team is three and five. With Miki's bat
(10:17):
his batting average has increased thirteen points. He is on
an eight game or a seven game went through their
eight game hit streak, and they are three and five.
That's that, I think, in a nutshell, explains what the
hell is going on with the Dodgers. Whatever they say
needs to happen and will happen, ends up happening. Our
(10:39):
starters are gonna come back. Then you'll see, Yeah, well,
Tany pitched pretty well. Last night. I guess, I mean
he left with a lead glass. Now's pitching great, Snell
pitch great. You know, Kershaw's pitching a hell of a
lot better than we thought his old ass was going
to pitch. And they still keep losing those games.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Wake up. The Dodgers are in a free fall, and
who will save them? Who you? Freeland?
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Is it Dave Roberts? You Dave Roberts, is el?
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Is it? Golmer?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Golmer?
Speaker 3 (11:17):
I have worse news, Matt got Well, I don't know
if it's worse news, but as it pertains to the show,
and we got a lot to promote. But I should
let you know because maybe it's good that you've you
had some work with the Chargers today because.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Oh it's today another day, Matt, Did you eat one?
Speaker 3 (11:40):
No, there's no, it's not happened yet. But they're setting
up and there there are multiple balloons. The area outside
of KFI and the Dodgers studio here on our floor
has been festooned with balloons, a sign that says, thank
(12:01):
you heroes, the guys that saved Stuffoosh are coming in
and Conway is Tim Conway Junior has taken that initiative
to create what he is promoting as the mother of
all hot dog Days. They're gearing up to have a
(12:28):
gigantic they got social media Matt here to have a
gigantic social media KFI event and drive the steak through
our heart like a dying vampire and can complete the
theft of hot Dog Day.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Well, this will do it. And you got heroes that
pulled Steffus out of a flaming wreck to save his life.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Tournique in his wrangled.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Arm, freaking his arm. They save his life now like something.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Like that thousand dollars in the go Fudby, Yeah, which
is probably purchasing only the finest hot dogs.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Oh, Kate's just sent me the photo.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
You see it, Matt.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
We don't stand a chance. I mean, reality is, we don't.
We would never look a tablecloth.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Look at that set up the tongs. We don't have tongs.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
No, we just used a fork. Get your nasty mit
in there.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
No, we used the plastic forks.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Did you use the plast But they can grab the
buns with their hand. I don't know if they expect
them to do. Yeah, that's our that's our hot dog machine.
That's our that's the hot dog machine that we used
for hot Dog Day. I mean, I think at some
point you'd have some pride.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
That's Conway's hot dog machine. But you're saying he.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Bought the city. He asked us, Hey, which hot dog
machine did you guys buy? Did?
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:51):
And I get and I sent them the link. We're
like hot dog machine we have.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
We're like Pete from Pete's Coffee that showed the Starbucks
people how to make coffee right, and now look at us.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
It's blowy couple of anchors. I would think it more
like the twins from Facebook. You also came up with
the old Vegle Boss twins. Yeah, well no, they didn't
have a rival Facebook. They just got hosed in the deal.
Like it's not like it was their idea, but you know,
(14:22):
it wasn't like they put it into practice. We already
had established, like like Petro said, Pete's Coffee already had.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
We invited them to hot Dog Gas.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
They only know about Hot Dog Day because we opened
our doors to them and said, hey, come on in.
This isn't just a KLA C A M five seventy la.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
Our house and they stole our candelabras.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Exactly like this was our thing, and it was for
the whole floor. It was for KFI and for us.
We didn't want anyone from upstairs coming down because they
always looked down on us. No FMS if the am
bands day as celebration, a day to come together, and
Steff would come in and eat three four hot dogs
and we joke about it and it became a funny.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
Bit and they took it.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
They took it, and now what do we.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Or a bunch of winko?
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Yeah, rumor is there's more food and.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
Some I didn't like that either. Did you hear what
happened there? Kate's no. When I walked in. When I
walked in, I was I was explaining to somebody that
they're having a hot dog Day for the heroes, and
Michelle Cube came by and she's like, it's not just
hot dogs, and I felt like saying, and I love
(15:36):
Michelle Cube, but I felt like saying, you idiot, the
whole basis of this thing is hot dogs.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Without hot dogs, we don't care. Yeah, it's build a
hot dog Day. What did he say on Channel five?
Somebody doesn't show up for hot dog Day and radio
and you know there's something seriously wrong. He didn't say
pizza Day. He didn't say Paquito Day. They didn't say
lemon merank pie Day.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Yeah, tea live pie Day.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
He said hot dog Day.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
This guy is a big show, and everybody over it,
sorry Petros, everybody over at KFI is promoting it. I
was walking by earlier today and Gary and Shannon during
their commercial break started yelling my name, and I walked
into their studio and they said, Hey, it's hot dog
Day today. Don't forget spread the word hot dog Day.
Come down and get one. Kate said, okay, thanks.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Kate said he was going to fast.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
He ain't gonna fast, then said he's gonna get a
hot dog.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
I'll say this to ron I want to see what
kind of I want to see what kind of pot
luck they come up with and go ahead. Yeah, you
think they're stoking his fire.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
They're planting the fairy seats. They know Ronnie's going to
come back and report to us, and they just want
to get our goat. That's what they're doing.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
We do it all.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
It's all a KFI. Hey, let's pile on Petros and money.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Yeah, that's what it is. That's really make FO steal
their intellectual property. And then let's laugh at them.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Yeah, and you.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
Know what I do have? Sound of Gary and Shane
and right after Ronnie left the room, excellent.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
What is sweet James coming on again? By the way, Yeah,
we need we need, we need sweet James. We got
a suit.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
What's up with his four month European vacation?
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Not?
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Okay, I'm on it. We need legal advice. We've got
a suit we have, We're on record. Is hot dog day,
It's Petros money, hot dog Day.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
You know what he'll get far, Matt, you know what,
he'll go far. Paul Corvino might not like it, but
we get some sweet James letterhead, a letter written, a
cease and desist, right, and throw that at Conway's ass
and bend the intern over there with his stoic face
that never cracks into a smile. Just hand him and
say you've been served, bitch to walk out. And that's
(17:43):
sweet James letterhead. That's gonna scare the crap out of Conway. Still.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
Now, this aggression will leet on his leg, that's right.
This aggression will not stand. Gary and Shannon rub it
in our faces.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
Now, Oh we don't care. Oh my god, it's a
letter for sweet James. Big Dog shared we took it
too far, big Dog. I can see it now, and
I didn't like the way Cube was acting. You know. Oh,
it's gonna be way more than hot dogs.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
So they get rid of the hot dogs. Yeah, they
make it pot luck day, Yeah yeah, make it. Make
it broccoli cheddar cast the role day. Okay, yeah yeah, Matt, Yeah,
you can make it whatever day you want. Say, take
your pick.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
Say what kind of hot dog, Steve do you have there?
Dig Dog? I like to take that, dig Dog, I.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Think you are go on Channel five and say when
your guy is in a coma, in a freaking hospital bed,
God doesn't hubbron dog.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
The best part is before I don't know if it
was before we doused to Fush was hospitalized, which they've
taken full advantage of.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
By the way, over there, well let's not go that far.
They're just trying to celebrate the heroes.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Do you think, Matt, It's like it's like Sam Rubert
on Channel five over there. I mean, I I mean,
it's all day, every day.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Wal Now you're speaking Tim's language.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
It's wall, the walls, the foosh, you know, bad.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
I here's what I hope. Here's here is my great hope.
And Tim and Ronnie and I know Petros, you're too
proud to go down there, But I think the hell
the move is the.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Is you preemptively strike me from being able to eat.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
I think the move is you go down there and
you mill about the table and you just shame the
hot dogs and you're like, oh man, this these apple slices, now,
these are good? Oh who made the finger sandwiches? Now?
Speaker 3 (19:47):
This is something like a syop?
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Yeah, like, hey, who needs hot dogs? You're disgusting? Who
wants some steamed hot dogs? Got these?
Speaker 3 (19:54):
I'm gonna buy I'm gonna buy this. Julie's gum, right,
love this, Chuli's gum? You cancer merchant?
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Who made these cucumber cream cheese finger sandwich is? These
are fantastic syop. That's what we have to do, because
it's not like that's the thing that I think. That's
the thing that Tim Conway and Sharon and Cube and Crozier,
they don't understand. We're not interested in a game of
(20:23):
one upsmanship. We just want our hot Dog Day back.
We want to own hot Dog Day. That's our thing.
On the Petros and money show Hot Dog Day.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
We did ask Hendrick yesterday for something and he said
he was gonna sou v the hot dogs and sausages
for us.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
With a griddle for thirty seconds each and we can
get all, which was, of course what a guy I've
got twenty years in the barbecue business would say, right, Oh, yeah,
I can crush a stinking steam hot dog.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
This is gonna get to the point where there's gonna
be like Wolfgang Park making omelets.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Is that Krispy Hunco and a bat And yeah, I
just phoned it in, man, So that's what's going on
down the hall, Matt, And it's an ugly scene. Well,
I hope they brought chopped onions. Yeah, you started it,
by the way, Cats. You started it by saying Tim
Conway had a Hot Dog Day and he chops his
own onions and they were delicious, and he heard.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
That Conway starred that Conway started it by buying the
hot dog steamer. We have right and basically pilfering the
entire intellectual property of Hot Dog Day. True, and that's
what happened. I love Tim Conway, but that's what happened,
and he has no defense for it. The heat is
too intense for it. When Matt, I don't know if
it was before or after Steffusche was pulled from the
(21:35):
burning car. But Matt went down there the other day
with his very loud voice Don Martin esque in the halls,
and Matt said something like, oh, you take hot dog day,
and then Conway seriously came right back with like, hey,
dig dog, if you buddy. He said it realized, hey,
if you bud, that's exactly what he said. Like it
was it was pretty hot, you know, two real deep
voiced radio host types. Hey if you know, if you buddy,
(22:00):
you know. So we're in an impasse, you know. And
I don't like what you said, Matt, that I can't
go down there and to eat any day. No, I mean,
you know, I gotta be able to check the competition.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Let's not what you're doing though, you're just gonna eat.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
You don't know what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Not checking the competition. Look, the hot dogs are delicious.
That's why we keep doing it. They're great hot dogs.
They're steamed, the buns are steamed and moist got delicious mustard.
Except for that one time I bought the generic because
it saved me seventy cents.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
That was bad move.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
It was a terrible move on my part. Again, that
maybe what opened the door for hot Dog Day. Someone
may have come in tried that generic mustard and been like,
what are we doing? This guy doesn't know how to
do Hot Dog Day. So maybe this is my fault.
Maybe this should be put on my shoulders for buying
the generic signature brand mustard instead of the Frenches for
seventy cents more.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
I don't think we can blame ourselves, Matt, you know,
and we're like a victim somebody who's victimized, they always
blame themselves, you know, like when my wallet was taken
from my car. You know, oh, you should have left
your doors open. I left your wallet in your car.
I'm the victim. I blamed myself for that. We can't
blame ourselves for Tim Conway coming down here and literally
stealing our intellectual property. We can't blame ourselves for that.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Mad No, Now that he's and now that the rest
of the lineup are engaging in petros and money shaming,
like Gary and Shanning telling rot Ronnie, oh yeah, hey, Ronnie,
the Petros and Money show, come on down, for Hot
Dog Day. Gary and Shannon approved. Well, guess what you're complicit.
You're getting a letter too.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Oh yeah, go have another gas remote at a place
that we already warmed up. We already laid with that hooker,
big your stupid gas station. We've already been there, all right.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
So I don't want this to drive a wedge between
us and our friends.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
I've big Matt, look at what they've done.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I want to make sure that our friendship and our
partnership continues moving forward.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
That's like your mayor your neighbors saying hey, can I
borrow your lawnmower, and then they just put it in
their shed and be like, yeah, my lawnmower lives here now.
And then you go, well, I don't want you stealing
my lawnmower to drive a wedge f you. Oh we
do have Sweet James letterhead already, but we gotta have
Sweet James sign this. It's not enough just to have
the logo and a beard. It says stop with Hot
(24:21):
Dog Day. You stole it from our show. You don't stop,
we will sue you. I don't think that's how sweet chape.
That's not legal ease?
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Is it a written in crayon, like a nice aqua
color und blood ketch them.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
So it's a look. I'm sorry, you know, mad I
had to bring it up. I couldn't just do the
show and good I couldn't do the show and good faith.
Well that's going on down.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Well that's the thing, like, why do you break the
hot dog out when you can just have a pot
luck and we can celebrate the heroes that save the
fusiest life, you know, Instead you've got to continue to
drive this wedge between us where you're stealing hot dogs
to Good Samaritans that are here.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
You know why he's threading the needle because steffush eight
eleven hot dogs. The next day was in a horrific
accident saved by heroes. Conway was able to talk about
hot dog Day on the local news. And now they're
having a hot dog day for the.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Heroes, yeah, which will be covered by the local news.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
Party I started down the hall by the way, party
has started party at ground zero.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Is the local news there, Kates. I would assume someone
wants a Channel nine is gonna want a piece of this.
I heard KTLA and Rick Chambers could be on their way,
So there you go.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
Rick, I thought he was gone.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
And let me tell you, instead of doing a story
of survival, we might be doing an o bit. You know,
a guy doesn't show up for a hot Dog Day
and radio and you know there's something wrong ding Dog
with that.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
But it did happen last week. Matt was like, Hey,
let's just still hot Dog, Hey, ding Dog, have you buddy.
He's unapologetic, like he doesn't care. He knows he did it,
He didn't care.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
Just there'd be no doubt that we would be doing
an obit tonight had they just driven.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Past in radio.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
If a guy misses hot Dog Day, that's an emergency.
It's a big red flat what an ahle not edited.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
It doesn't say in a little chirn or anything on
the side Hotdog Day was originally a Petrosen money property
from down the hall. Does not say that. No. Chambers
didn't even bother to check.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
We get nothing out of this. You know, maybe you
hit it on the head there, Pee. Maybe we take
our story to a rival news station.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Get Fukusaki on itors.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
Right, listen, Channel five has this story. You guys missed it.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
Jim he Jim Healey's son, Patrick Heey is my guy.
I think Pat Healy would come and cover this.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Or heal you want to cover a great story. Check
this out.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Worst feeling in the world. I thought he was gone.
I thought he was gone. Uh. We want to thank
everybody that came out in the middle of the week
to an early afternoon Petrosen money show at Brewery X.
They were thrilled. We were thrilled. Everybody left afterwards. There
was no pregame audience because everybody was waiting to see
you Taani pitch at the stadium. But we have one
(27:13):
more event, Matt to promote, and it's going to be
bigger than a hot dog day and a little plastic steamer.
We're firing up one of the great breweries in all
of the eight oh five, if not the finest brewery
in the eight oh five stands up on Thousand Oaks.
That's right, t Hill, Matt.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Fourth time we've gone back and click dots. Dodgers unfortunately
left me hold in the bag. So I need you
to do a Christmas party.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
You think Don Martin might show up.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
I could see it. I hope he does. Be great
to see Don lives in that area We've done. I
believe this will be our third Summer tour stop, I
dropped off my laptop combined with a Christmas party, There's
a reason we keep going back. It's a wonderful venue,
eating wide open, great beer, great food, and of course
(28:05):
all the prizes that we pack and bring with us.
Dodger Padre tickets for the Weekend series, a westing House
fifty five inch TV, A too night get away to
an MGM resort in Las Vegas. Our friends Wild Fork
Foods provided a couple gift cards Last time Out, Barry's Tickets,
Surf Side Vodka, Sweet James Berginer, It's gonna be a
(28:25):
hell of a party, and the last one.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Stealing ourff and Hot Nod Days, son of a Hey
have you buddy?
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Have you buddy?
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Big Dog?
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Have you bat?
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Fine, We'll go back to promoting our penultimate stop on
the petros In Money Summer Tour. I guess Hot Dog
Days left them. You know I'm gonna do I'm gonna
go to the sixth floor. I'm gonna take our Hot
Dog steamer and I'm just gonna throw it under the one.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
No, don't do that, mad, We'll get arrested.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
Throw it right under the one. Thirty four.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
Whenever we threaten to throw something on one thirty fourth,
never good. Ronnie gets fired, Yeah, Ronnie, Ronnie gets fired.
That What's worse though, this Dodger free fall, and both
these things kind of happened right under our nose, and
it was like both these things happened and it was
too late by the time we noticed, and we couldn't
ebb the tide. What's been worse the Dodger's free fall
(29:16):
or the Hot Dog Day? Intellectual property? Theft?
Speaker 2 (29:19):
I must close how Dog Day?
Speaker 3 (29:23):
Yeah? I think that's what we spend more time on
here in this Yeah, not even close. It's getting to
the point where I'm no fun anymore, just because of
this Hot Dog Day thing. David Vassey is going to
join us in the next segment. He doesn't care about
Hot Dog Day. He's got Dodger talked tonight at seven.
(29:45):

David Vase of the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
With an inside look at the Dodgers. This is the
Vass Report with David Vasse.
Speaker 3 (30:57):
David Vase has been riding the light with the Dodgers,
and right now it is a down group. The Dodgers
sweat in the season by the Angels. Angel fans flapping
their wings, laughing at the Dodgers and their giant payroll.
David vassa with the word of God as his shield,
(31:20):
taking on the callers on Dodger Talk, and tonight will
be no different. He's got Corchito Cruz on Dodger Talk
that starts at seven, and we are assuming he will
take your calls. It is David Vasse from Spectrum Sports
net LA from MLB Network and right here on m
FI seventy LA sports Our Dodger Insider, brought to you
(31:45):
by Service Titan dot Com.
Speaker 5 (31:46):
What's cracking, Dave, Yeah, Petro, So we'll be taking more
phone calls. We left a lot of calls on hold
last night. But certainly disappointing stretch here for the Dodgers.
And you know, I take some response of not recognizing
how deep the hole was getting for the Dodgers, because
since they had a nine game lead over the Padres,
(32:09):
their record is identical to the last place Rockies. The
Dodgers and Rockies since July third, their records are twelve
and twenty one.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
Amazing. That's just terrible. And of course, when you're playing
that bad, it's not just one thing. It's hitting, it's pitching.
On the night you get the hitting, you don't get
the pitching. On the night you get the pitching, you
don't get the hitting, and it just kind of it
just kind of unfolds from there. Dave, is this the
worst they've been in the last ten years that we've
(32:40):
had this package. I mean, I know they didn't make
the playoffs, like the second year that we had the
Dodger package or something like that. But I can't remember
them being this hopeless.
Speaker 5 (32:51):
Yeah. No, that was twenty twelve, the first year the
Dodgers were on the station, and that was still half
a season of mccork and that's when things took off
the second half with Goggenheim taking over the team. But yeah,
I don't remember any stretch like this. Petros twelve and
twenty one, When was the last time we said Dodgers
and Rockies had the same record for close to a month.
(33:16):
And you're right, it's not just one thing when you're
twelve and twenty one. It's untimely hitting, it's injuries, it's
poor starting pitching, it's giving up leads late, it's bad defense.
I think we can say all of those things have
taken place at different points in time over the course
of the last month.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
You know, it gets this bad, Dave and you're searching
for solutions. Earlier in the season, it's well, you're going
to get snellback, You're going to get glass now back,
You're going to get trying and all that sort of stuff,
like where do you look today? You know, because those
guys are back, they're pitching well, I know Dave Roberts
alluded to some of the arms in the bullpen, but
they weren't playing very well when they went down. So
where do you think ultimately it comes from. If they're
(33:59):
going to turn this thing around, where does it have
to start?
Speaker 5 (34:02):
Yeah, I really do believe it starts at the back
end of the bullpen. They are waiting on Tanner Scott,
Michael Kopek and Kirby Yates to return, and that would
change things. Instead of having Justin Robleski and at Gardo
Enriquez in high leverage situations, those would be your guys
and with Blake Trinan in the mix. But you know,
(34:24):
Dave Roberts had gone to the well too often and
a lot of those guys were not available last night,
so he only had a couple of rookies to go
to in robe Leski and at Gardo Enriquez. So once
you get those three veteran relievers back, if you're still
blowing leads late, then I believe there would be a
greater cause for alarm. But you know, Alex Freeland, Dalton Rushing,
(34:48):
you know that's tough to have those guys being counted
on for big time offensive contributions in games, and certainly
it's a lot to ask rookies like Enriquez Robleski to
be in the highest of leverage situations, even against the
Angels last night.
Speaker 2 (35:05):
Now you mentioned that, Dave, and you said the back
end of the bullpen is where it's got to start.
So until and I assume that they want it to
be Tanner Scott or Kirby Yates in the ninth like
until then, Like, who do you think it is? You know,
because we talked about Vessio yesterday in that work, Like,
which would be the guy that you would tab to say, Hey,
let's make sure we saved this guy for the ninth
and the highest leverage of positions.
Speaker 5 (35:26):
Ideally it would be Blake Trinon, but he's just been
as sharp since coming off the IL that would be
the guy. And I've been a big advocate of Ben Casparius.
Give him a clean ninth inning, and I feel like
he could really deliver for you. I know, he's been
brought in with the bases loaded a couple of times.
He's been able to wiggle out of it most of
(35:47):
the time. But I just feel like, if it's not Blake,
Trynon the next choice would be Ben Casparius.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
Dave, it's obviously a huge weekend for the Dodgers with
the Padre coming, two teams headed in opposite directions that
absolutely despise each other, the managers getting after each other
the whole deal. So who is gonna pitch? What's the
rotation look like, and how do you think the Dodgers
will respond?
Speaker 5 (36:15):
Yeah, it's gonna be Kershaw tomorrow night, snell Villa on
Saturday facing his former team, and Tyler Glass now on Sunday.
And they've got to get really good starting pitching because
that's what the Dodgers are built on. Now, it's their
starting pitching. They did not get good starting pitching against
the Angels. Yamamoto, Sheian and ivan Otani in those three games,
(36:40):
gave up a lot of runs that the Dodgers were
in a deficit on. So yeah, it's got to be
starting pitching. That's the way it's got to be. Uh,
that's how the tone has got to be set. And
Dodgers have got to play flawless defense as well, Dave.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
You mentioned those three they're going up against. Michael King,
Dylan csu Dar do you think like after the trade
deadline and just with the injuries the Dodgers have, how
well the Padres are playing? Do you think on paper
the Dodgers are still decidedly better? Are they better? Are
these two teams even on paper?
Speaker 1 (37:14):
Now?
Speaker 2 (37:15):
Like where do you put how do these two teams
stack up today? August fourteenth?
Speaker 5 (37:20):
Well, I would still say and maintain the Dodgers' starting
staff is better than the Padres and deeper. But you
look at the Padres bullpen that's much deeper and much
better right now than the Dodgers have pitched all season long.
And that's I think that's the way Ad probably looked
at things is you know, I may not be able
(37:41):
to get a frontline starter, but I'll just make the
game shorter by acquiring a guy like Mason Miller to
shorten the game with what they already have. So all
those things make me believe that the Padre's bullpen right
now is better. The Dodgers starting staff is better. But
you know, offensively, I wouldn't say the Padres are ripping
(38:05):
the cover off the ball. Jackson Merrill really hasn't been
the same since he came back from concussion. So it's
about timely hitting and the Dodgers haven't had it in
the podres half.
Speaker 3 (38:15):
David Massey is our guest with the family today. We
appreciate him joining us after being berated by Angel fans
for the last three nights. Dave, if Munsey's really hurt,
if he blew his oblique out again trying to hit
it hard in the batting cages, who's gonna play third?
(38:36):
What is their long term plan there if Munsey can't play?
Speaker 5 (38:39):
Yeah, right, I mean it would be for right now
Alex Freeland, And you would hope Tommy Edmond and Keith
a Hernandez come back sometime in September, but he's got
to hold it down for the rest of August between
him and Miguel Rojas. And you know you're hoping Hay
Sun Kim comes back here at some point as well
to free up Rojas to play some third base. But yeah,
(39:02):
right now, it would fall on Alex Freeland until next
months he can come back.
Speaker 2 (39:07):
I never. You may not like this particular question, but
I think it bears anything.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
He's going to want to mute me. But could you
try to hit more.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
Doubles because it's typically teams that aren't in the midst
of a you know, of trying to defend their World
Series championship. But we know that you told us Dave
Andrew Freeman did not want to trade these top prospects.
When September rolls around, is there going to be an
audition for some of these really young guys that are
really showing out that might be able to stick around
(39:36):
for the postseason. I mean, it's it's happened before.
Speaker 5 (39:40):
Yeah, I would say, if you were gonna talk about
one of the young guys, it's a guy that's been
here but has been converted into a relief pitcher, Bobby Miller.
I'm a big advocate to call a Bobby Miller because
he has embraced this conversion into a reliever. He has
not given up a run in seven appearance as a
(40:00):
relief pitcher. I just think he there's a lot of
upside to be had to see if Bobby Miller could
be a fresh arm to take the burden off some
of these guys. I just feel like this point, Bobby
Miller is a better option than Alexis Diaz. I just
don't see you with Diaz, and I could see why
the Reds gave up on him, but it was worth
(40:21):
a try for the Dodgers. But Bobby Miller, I mean,
that's these guys are the Dodger bullpen has had a
lot of guys that have pitched a lot of innings,
and Bobby Miller's a fresh arm. I would be all
in as him being a very key piece that you
can call up from your minor leagues to be able
to pitch. And look, the Dodgers didn't have Bobby Miller
(40:43):
convert to a reliever for no reason. They obviously had
visions of him if he was successful helping out this bullpen.
No better time than now.
Speaker 3 (40:53):
Dave's gonna want to mute me on this one. Here.
Speaker 5 (40:56):
I'd love it if you could here' he's gonna want
to mute me. But if you could get maybe go
for more doubles, you know, use both your speed and
your power maybe a little bit.
Speaker 2 (41:07):
Yeah, that a great idea. I wish I could hit
a double every time. I'm gonna go for that though.
Speaker 5 (41:12):
Hit more doubles the good times, you know, the golden
age of Dodger baseball right there with Jack Peterson in studio.
Speaker 3 (41:19):
All you got to do is hit more doubles. That's it,
easy peasy. Use your speed, and Power. Go for more double?
Speaker 5 (41:27):
Oscar Hernandez and Mookie betch know about that? Maybe Otani?
Maybe not? Maybe don't, hey Otani, don't try for a
home run. How about a double to the Hall of Fame?
Speaker 2 (41:36):
There you go.
Speaker 3 (41:37):
How about more doubles?
Speaker 2 (41:38):
Good stuff every time, though, thank you try for that.
Speaker 3 (41:42):
Coming up at seven, David Vasse will have Dodger Talk.

(43:21):
the Dodgers sliding to second place this late in the
season for the first time in what seems like a decade.
Speaker 3 (43:26):
It's a real tropical hot dog night down the hall,
Matt and I see a storm brewing down the hall.
As you know the Tim Conway Junior Show, they're celebrating heroes,
they're celebrating the heroes that save Steffouche. And Rick Chambers
is here, his camera guy is here for a follow up.
(43:48):
So the local news is all over it. The pot
luck is being on ferl Steffoush's parents, his stepdad and
mom are there. I just held her and she's a
lovely lady. He's in surgery again today, obviously very serious injuries.
Speaker 2 (44:03):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (44:03):
But here's the silver lining on our dark cloud. There's
a lot of like Moe Kelly's here early, like, there's
a lot of.
Speaker 2 (44:10):
People out there they want a piece of.
Speaker 3 (44:12):
Milling around, salespeople walking around. There's only twenty one hot dogs.
Oh yes, they're gonna run out of hot dogs. It's
gonna be like the fire Fest come up short. They're
gonna run out of hot dogs on hot dog Day.
And what else is available? Though? Is there?
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Like a are there are their finger sandwiches? Are there
cucumber creamches?
Speaker 3 (44:33):
Sandwich? You see anything else put out there?
Speaker 2 (44:36):
I see?
Speaker 3 (44:37):
I mean I think there's some there's some Coleslaw containers
and some toperwarees. I don't I'll have to go back
and look. But it's almost like kind of uncomfortable, like
you can't get by. I was like trying to go
to the bathroom and get by. No food has been
served yet. And I heard from good from a mole
that we have in the Conway show Cruisier that they
(45:02):
only have twenty one hot dogs and they will inevitably
run out of hot dogs at a certain point and
be humiliated. Did Ben just go down there to look?
What is it? What's happening with the opposite direction? Thanks
a lot, Ben, You can't crane your long ass neck
around the corner to see what's going on. We're being humiliated.
We're being cocked right down the hall.
Speaker 2 (45:23):
I figured it out. Here's what we need. Ben needs
to be a saboteur. Ben needs to do to Conway
what Steffush did to us.
Speaker 3 (45:31):
Go eat on the hot dogs. I did. I told
him that. I said, go get skinny and throw a
full body block around the hot dogs and grab three
of them, make like four, Make two of three for
me and two or three for Kates. No ketchup like
you put on it with your Unamerican commias, and then
they'll be only like ten hot dogs. Right.
Speaker 2 (45:53):
Remember, Jesus isn't going.
Speaker 3 (45:54):
To show up with the bread and the fish to
feed the masses.
Speaker 2 (45:57):
We offered a dog to the Big Boss. He came
down to a dog and there were none left. That's
when Ronnie had to go across the street.
Speaker 3 (46:04):
Yeah, they're gonna have to send We're not sending anybody
across the street.
Speaker 2 (46:07):
You start serving woke dogs to people.
Speaker 3 (46:10):
And get those woke dogs from down the street.
Speaker 2 (46:12):
Their hot dog party's gonna come to an end in
a hurry.
Speaker 3 (46:16):
These hotit these hot dogs are made of healthy ingredients.
Get these out of here, he said, I want these
woke dogs.
Speaker 2 (46:22):
It's wrong with you people. Hot dog day. It's gonna
turn in. Hey, thanks for saving his life.
Speaker 3 (46:27):

Would you like a Pepperoni pizza hot pocket?
Speaker 3 (46:35):
