Three oh five. Right, No, no, but but I will,
I will. I will hear about it. Though. There's only
one thing, because I'm really looking forward to this baseball
season and my Dodgers repeating back to back champions how excited?
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Like, I don't you know? I mean, I'm sorry, George.
I mean I'm not calling you up so you root
for like a poverty team. No, No, I don't root
for anything, Okay, I mean I grew up in here.
I'm a Dodger fan. I mean I remember Fernando Mania,
for God's sakes, you know, I remember seeing Oral Herscheys
are up, yes, when I was a kid, and and
all those different Steve Sachs, you know who. They've become
(02:12):
friends of the show. It's amazing for me. But at
the same time, you know, you never want to be
too close to something. We cover the Dodgers, I say, Doyer, Doyer, Dorier.
I don't act like a baseball expert or anything like that.
But I never really thought of you, George, so I
care about the Dodger. I always just thought of you
as like an organ guy. Oh see, you know what
I mean. I never thought of you as like a
guy and like a baseball hat. I mean it just
(02:34):
explained your Dodger fandom, George. I mean, I don't know. Yeah,
I see it now, Yes, I see your Dodger hat. Yeah,
because they just won a World Series.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Everybody got a Dodger hat on. No Peyton, Peyton, reister,
How long have I been? Do I wear Dodger hats
every day? Or do I not? Every day? All right?
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Well, for how long you are four? Like ice Cube,
wear's a white Sox hat exactly.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Okay, all right.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
I'm not trying to call you these. I'm not trying
to call you out or anything like that. All I
know is that calling you works with the Dodgers. And
when George came in today, Colin, when you went down
and got him, did he say, hey, I really love
the work you do. Is the engineer on those Dodger broadcasts.
I'm a big fan. He did not see that, but
he was. He didn't know he was wearing that Dodger hat.
(03:19):
That looked very very cool. That's interesting. You got that
Dodger hat on. Do you know that we are the
home of the Dodger? Did he say that, I might
have dropped. Yeah, you know we're getting ready for the
Dodgers season. He did did drop that.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
He did talk about them getting to Japan. Did you
go to the parade or anything. No, I'm not a
part of playoff game and the playoff playoff game? Yes
you did, yes, and it's one more than I went to.
There was one game. Oh, so I think I went
to the first one. So I was in the suite
for the first one, and I had tickets to go
to the Dodgers game because I think it fell on
(03:53):
the same day or the day after the Oregon Ohio
State game in Eugene, and I was in Eugene, and
uh and so I gave him to my dad. M
You are a.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
World traveler man. You get around wow man like Pac.
That's back when Tupac was a lover before he became
Do you ever see Tupac's video where he's in like
a single it talking about like how he loves to
dance and then he went on gangster. Yes that I
(04:24):
had maybe those rappers. Maybe the rappers we grew up
with weren't as gangster as we thought. You ever think
about that, Yes, unless it's Sugar Free and DJ Quick
there is.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Oh, they they are about that life. Yeah, Sugar Pomona.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Yeah, well I remember Above the Law and Black Superman
and that's see people talk about La rap. But if
they don't know about Black Superman and Above the Law
and Baseline Drive, then I don't want to hear nothing
from anybody about anything ever. Kendrick Lamar what, No, He's great,
That's okay. I don't look.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
People are always like, well, did you like the super
Bowl thing?
Speaker 1 (04:57):
I was like, well, I mean I'm a four a
seven year old man, you know, who is a complete
culture snob when it comes to music and books and
movies and stuff like that. So no, I mean it's
not that wasn't for me. They didn't make that for me.
But I liked it.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
The reason I liked don't always acknowledge that that that
you can say I appreciated that that was good for me.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
He go out there and do exactly what he does.
He did his show with his people, his stuff. He
didn't try to have Britney Spears out there with him
or anything like that. Like that's more offensive to me
when you have the Blues Brothers, Aerosmith, Britney Spears and
Nelly and they're all out there screaming at the same
time trying to attract every appeal as widely as possible.
(05:46):
Like hire an artist and let the artists do their thing,
and that's the artist because everybody.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Everything is not for everybody, and that's okay. So and
just just be you and play to the people who
like you.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
It is.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
It wasn't a day for you to try to Oh,
let's you. You weren't gonna win over not people who
don't listen to hip hop.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Now, I will say this, I don't want to hear
anything about Kendrick Lamar if you don't know about Black
Superman and the fake ass truth.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
All right, time for.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
The word of the day. You love the fake ass truth,
the word of the Give me the scoop about the
fake ass truth. Although I believe Jim Brown, the great
running the Great, the great violent running back Jim Brown,
(06:40):
I do believe he was the closest to getting us
a truce between the Bloods and the crips. There's nothing
like a new coach being hired at a university and
a guy comes in and he says a few words
to the whole team.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Oh, everybody's excited. Everybody's all geeked up, look at our god. Yeah.
And and remember, so I asked I got when I
interviewed Rob Mullins up there at Oregon the athletic director.
I asked him a question because when we hear coaches hired,
what did they what does the athletic director or whoever
(07:13):
introduce him say, this was the only guy that we
all got our guy? Yeah, And so I asked him.
I was like, so, uh so, how many people are
really offered? And uh he said that that's what they
tell you to say at the at the Athletic director convention,
that that's that that's the talking point. They're like, listen, listen, listen,
you only say that you offered one guy, when in
(07:34):
reality there's you.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Know how it all goes back to the Mike d'mone.
I mean, you're from the valley the Mike Damone basis
of living from fast times of Richmond High one of
his pillars of life, like the five Pillars of Islam.
Mike Damone, wherever you are that's where you want to be,
the place to be.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
That's the greatest place ever. Isn't this great?
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Yep?
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Isn't this great?
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Well, speaking of that of Colorado football coach.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Pride, Yes, hired very very accomplished running back coach, probably
the greatest running back of all time. I mean, other
than you can hire Dickerson, you can hire Jim Brown.
You can't hire Oj or Jim, they're dead. I guess
you can hire Marcus Allen, Tomlinson, Ladanian. You can hire Ladanian.
(08:24):
I mean, you know, Adrian, you can don't get much
further than that now, I mean, we don't go too
much further. Uh. And they hired Marshall faul Yes, they
hired Marshall Faulk, the great San Diego State man out
of Louisiana actually and ended up in San Diego State.
But here he is in Colorado. And here is Marshall
Falk's speech. I'm gonna give him an f uh no, Well,
(08:46):
let's just hear. He comes out and he tells the
kids that you know, google me. I mean it's Marshall,
it's a Hall of Famer. He tries to make like
a joke and then he gives a speech about effort.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
George, he ready to hear it.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Okay, le's see if I'm ready to with Marshall fall in
front of the Colorado Buffs in March.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
I'm new.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
For those of you that don't know me, I'm Marshall fulk.
I don't want to get into stats. If you want
those on Google, Google check me out.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
I knew I was gonna get you.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Here's it didn't get him because most of those they
don't know that was his attempt at Hue. Yeah, but
they don't know. They're young people and they don't know. No,
they don't know you. No, they don't know you. No,
they really don't know. They they probably because I played
for Charles White, and I knew who Charles White was.
I knew what he did, I knew what he was
(09:39):
like as a player.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
These kids don't watch football and study football and and
and yes there are I'm talking about as a as
a whole, there are not like these young kids. They
don't study the history of football, and they don't spend
their time watching you know, old highlights and and and
all of that, because there's so much on their damn
(10:04):
phone about everything about about what's going on.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Don't you get on your phone and look up Marshall fault.
But anyway, here first, the week ass joke.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Because it's grainy there, I promise you. I've had kids
say to me, oh man, I can't watch that. Yeah,
that's grainy. That's not an HD.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
It's a shame very shit. All right now, Peyton, I
want you to listen. He's gonna talk about effort.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
I was gonna get you. Here's what I want you
to understand. And this goes for everybody, including the running
back room. All right. How you do one thing is
how you do everything.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Think.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
How you do one thing is how you do everything.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
By Think about that. Now, never heard that one How
you do one thing is how you do everything? At
everybody in the running back room you listen to this, Yeah,
well you don't have to comment.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
Wait, think about that. How you do one thing is
how you do everything. If you if you slack off
in school, then at some point in time.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
These kids don't about the stool anymore.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
The guy to your right, the guy in front of you,
guy behind you, they can't count on you because you're going.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
To slack off.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
It's the last time you heard it.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
How you do is how you do everything.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Back at my time, they'd be like, hey, where's so
and so?
Speaker 2 (11:22):
He ain't playing? You're suspended for a week. It's grades.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
When was the last time that has not happened in
ten years?
Speaker 2 (11:28):
That used to happen all all of a sudden going
to school. Now there was a there was a kid
and and to your point, Petros, there was a kid
that out here anymore that got suspended four grades. And
I was because he was ineligible. And I was like, wait,
what how does that happen? How?
Speaker 1 (11:46):
But now with the nil money we're paying this kid
in eligible, my ass. Let's hear the rest of this
very very inspirational speech.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
How you do one thing is how you do everything.
Speaker 5 (11:55):
So I'm gonna be real brief and say this to you.
What we want from you. It requires no talent. Effort
requires no talent. Hustle requires no talent. You don't have
to be the fastest, you don't have to be the strongest,
you don't have to be the smartest. To give effort,
it requires no talent. If you give effort, watch what
(12:18):
it brings to you.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Don't worry about that talent you could be out there,
don't worry about that talent.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
And you'd be stiff Booty Leroy with knees that don't band.
And you could.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Try You're just say stiff booty.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
You could be stiff boot and you go out there
and you could give all the effort in the world,
and you are still going to probably get yourself hurt
and get somebody else hurt if you have no talent
or speed or brains or skill. We're talking about big
time college football. Yes, what is he talking? This ain't
the freshman team.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Effort requires no talent?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
What now? He is right about that part. That part
is true effort does it require talent? However, to be
a good football player, Talent is a talent is probably
the number one.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
To be sitting in that room, and is a basic requirement.
Like like you can't be like, hey, I played some
high school ball. You'll get wrecked out there. You'll hurt
yourself or someone else.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
What in God's name, hey man, don't don't don't bring
me them talented players. Don't bring me them. I want effort, Yes,
don't bring me them. Marshall Fawkes from Yeah who went
to San Diego States, Like Marshall falk buried on the
depth chart, and then the first game out he rushes
for like four hundred yards.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
One of the most talented football players of all time.
Talking about effort. All right, let's finish it up. Is
he done? Oh, he was done. He did say he
was gonna keep it brief. Yeah he did. So good
luck to the Colorado running back room. Okay, they don't
have to run the ball, so he was. They were
like last in the football what do you coach as
(14:01):
a Colorado running back coach? Hot routes and chip the
d n I don't even.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Know if they chipped the the way the wayster door
got hit last year. I don't even know if they
they just they just wave into division.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
They don't they They're weird, you know. And you got
to give him credit for what he did, yes, you know, absolutely.
And and their ability I think they really changed because
their ability to rush the passer, you know, they became
different defense.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
So okay, so to this point, who did they bring
in on the defensive line last year? Warren Sap? Warren Sap,
So there was some net impact.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
So there was and you know, it would have taken
a lot of bravery to hire Warren Sap because I
believe it was this century that he balked two hookers
heads together like coconuts.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
He literally did that, Yes, in a in a in
a hotel and a Marshall fall left.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Know of the NFL network for something on Savory Coach Prime.
Don't care, he's like the Chiefs.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Time to win. This is top number of the day.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
You have the number or you want to still talk
about freaking uh Colorado D Line.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Can we lose the number of the day? Yes? I
think we lost? Oh my god?
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Is it? Is it under you?
Speaker 2 (15:13):
George? I mean we can ride it for you, but
we can't. I know the number of the day is three.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
And what's it about? It's about Southwest?
Speaker 2 (15:20):
Oh yes, yes, okay, let me let me give you.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
In a row that we're talking about Southwest Airlines. Okay,
charging for bags exactly so. Southwest Airlines announced their new
bag policy and people are very upset. Of course they
should be so so Southwest famous line bags fly free,
yeah right, charge for bag exactly so. So now you've
gone the the the frontier. Uh spirit Airlines charging for bags,
(15:50):
you might as well charge for air and and remember
Matt's not upset about this, even though he's a big
Southwest guy.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
But this is a plus. Yeah, of course because these
all over the country on somebody else's dime, So of course,
so of course then yes, he's he's a list everywhere,
so this doesn't bother him because it has no impact
on the people. If you buy a list select or
(16:17):
whatever the most premium thing is that you can buy
on Southwest, it doesn't impact you. Then, so of course
Matt has no cares in the world. And remember last year,
Southwest is the same people that said that they were
going to do away with the with like the number system,
the boarding process, and that they were actually going to
assign c ABNC is over. You can't throw money and
(16:39):
get inn a group anymore. So they're actually losing all
the things that made them special.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
They're getting called out. But the number of the day,
I believe I remember it is that they were on Twitter.
They're called out a lot.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Yes, yes, yes, so they've been called out on Twitter
a lot. And then they went on and said you
basically saying that you guys are acting like we traded Luca.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
We didn't trade Luca. At least we didn't trade Luca
don che Yes, that was their response.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
That was. That was clever.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
That was that wasn't in a position to trade him
in the first place. Yeah, like he didn't play it,
But that was like a B West. I don't know
if Luca's ever been on a Southwest flaying, to be
honest with.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
You, that was like a B minus Wendy's Twitter tweet. Yeah,
a little bit. Yeah, like when the Chicken Wars. Yeah, yeah,
it's snappy, it's it's clever, but at the end of
the day, at the end of the day, it is
why charging for bags? Yes, yes, you already expected people
to have bags on the plane anyway, that's like when
(17:43):
you I have heard effort requires no talent Southwest, correct.
I have heard that on like Spirit and Frontier that
they charge you. They charge you for carry ons, charge
you for carry on bag. Oh, I've heard about this too.
So the so the expectation is that you're gonna get
on the lane with just with just your body. I mean,
(18:03):
where you where? Where have you ever traveled? Pockets full? Dude?
Speaker 1 (18:08):
I got to bring my sleep mask. Maybe you can
shop when you get there.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
So I rarely check bags when I go anywhere. I
can go somewhere for a week with a carry on?
How so, like, what else did you expect me to bring?
I take day trips all the time.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
I do expect you to bring a bag, and they
expect you to pay for it.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
So why not this song of the day? What do
you want from me to why I look like an
airline executive? It's not by fault. Why not just charge
three dollars more on every single ticket? We'll get somebody
on Ronnie. I'll ask somebody I don't know.
Speaker 6 (18:49):
Interesting conversation there. Houdini is a legendary hip hop group
from Brooklyn with our song of the day called Friends. Yes, George,
because the Petros and Money Show has friends, and we've
got a longtime friend sitting in our smoky circle today
in place of Matt Smith on a crunchy groop on Thursday.
He's a former NFL tight end with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
(19:11):
Now he's a popular sports broadcaster, graciously taking the time
to spend four hours with great sports talk. It's our friend,
George Reister. Hey, George, looking good?
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Yeah man, Hey. When I got the call from the
man who is deathly afraid of snakes, I had to
say yes.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Both Kate's Yes, there's Kate scared of snakes. What you
don't remember to call? I remember that with the snake
in the driveway down the shovel and he had to
get his wife.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
I remember it now. Well, that's great, recall George, and
that way with mice. We'll be right back. You shouldn't
have told me that. David Fasse Live Live from Japan.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Everybody next, Hey, everybody, what's cracking. Very excited about this interview.
Been looking forward to this moment for while. Now David
Vasse and the Dodgers have touched down in Japan. George,
I'm a little worried about this interview now because I
think he's in a cab with some Dodgers Tanner, Scott
and maybe Blake trying in the car.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Without holding him hostage. Well, I mean, I'm not gonna
get the interview I want.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
I'm not gonna get the honesty because when Vassa starts
to give his baseball takes, those baseball types are gonna
start making all kinds of sounds and making Dave uncomfortable.
But anyway, Live from Japan, it is all happening. David
Vasse Live from Spring Training, the home of the Dodgers is.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
With an inside look at the Dodgers. This is the
Vassi Report with David.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Vasei live from Japan Exhibition Games, but Tuesday from Tokyo.
David Vasse Dodgers on deck two am first pitch of
three zero five and LF Dodger talk afterwards. Right. Uh,
Dave is in Tokyo with the Dodgers big dinner last night.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Dave, how's it going set the same forest? Brother?
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Well, we're on the streets of Tokyo right now in
a limousine taxi with two Dodger relievers that may be
on Vanity Fair in Tokyo after the Japanese people see
them in their uniforms pitching in all their glory, and
that's Blake Trianon and Tanner Scott. We are part of
a caravan where we're headed to a sumo jim that
(21:24):
was set up at backstage. Dodgers. Your guy Brian Flues
is in Japan and set that up. So, yes, I'm
trying to live up to the expectations. Blake has took
me on a high pedestal in his life and I'm
always just trying to live up to it and try
never to.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Disappoint I guess the question is, Dave, is it like
you thought it would be? What's what's it like out there?
What was the reception when you guys got there? What
have you been doing since you landed?
Speaker 3 (21:51):
Well, contrary to what Dave Roberts told you, there was
not millions of people greeting us.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
You said one million people that made.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
News the Dodgers. Maybe they went to a different airport,
maybe they went to the bank of Tokyo, but that
was not what greeted us. The Dodgers went to great
lengths and the MLB security to keep the Dodgers oscolated
and safe from point A to point B. But last
night I actually had a very bizarre night in Tokyo.
(22:20):
I agreed to a to an interview at a Japanese
TV studio last night and it was for the biggest
morning show in Tokyo. From what I understand, they were
airing it this morning. So we did the interview last
night at TV Asai. The went to five minutes sit
(22:44):
down interview. I felt like I was in being grilled
in an interrogation room because it was a very warm
room with just white walls. And then after that I
asked for recommendations to where to where to go to eat,
and they took the opportunity to make reservations at a
very local place and mic me up, follow me on
(23:07):
the streets of Japan. So I played no, do what
they wanted, and then we went into the restaurant and
I ate. But when I first walked in, the owner
did not want an American in the restaurant.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Yeah, I told you they would do that. I told
you that.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
What happened, Yeah, that happened. If you walk into some
restaurants in Japan they say no Americans.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
It ain't just.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Negotiated and a full little I would say capacity thirty
person sashimi authentic place allowed us to sit in while
all these locals were staring at me.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
I remember.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
It was very bizarre, so a great time my first
night grating whool.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Record scratch moment.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
So you weren't at the o Tani the sushi fast
with the players.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
No, no, I don't believe that's taking place yet. Nobody
in this and this text will confirm or deny that.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Interesting, But.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
So what I learned, it has not taken place yet.
The guys needed their rest. There's a workout. Today, Otani, Yamamoto,
and Sazaki will hold a press conference, and that's the
beginning of the events here on the Dodgers World of Tour.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
How do players feel about the playing multiple games before
the season actually starts and then having to go back
and play preseason games again.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
Hey, well they did this last year and they won
the World Series, so I would say it worked out
pretty well. So I feel like I feel like this
time around, there's a lot more excitement to be here
in Japan with Otani and just to experience what it's like.
And it'll be rocking fifty five thousand plus in the
Tokyo Dome. But everybody seems to be in great spirits
(25:00):
right now. I feel like maybe the excitement of this experience,
being in the in the cab with me and doing
a live radio interview from Japan is what's really got
the adrenaline running. I feel like this is setting the
tone for their trip.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Well, it is interesting.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
You kind of give the impression that it's sort of
every man for themselves. You know, you got a couple
of relievers in a limo with you. Uh, people are
scattered all over the city. What's what?
Speaker 2 (25:22):
What? Uh is that kind of how it is.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
Memo as the other lemos landon Nak and his birthing
hips with Trustin Robleski and Clayton Kershaw. So we'll see
whether or not Nac next use those birthing hips to
get in the sumo ring.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Uh did you see the center fielder for the Cubs
pull out the samurai sort and cut those balls in half?
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (25:44):
Yeah, says the Zuki. Yes, yes, I saw that. That
was in Arizona and George Lee, who is a close
personal friend of ours at the station. Uh, wanted to
one up, says a Zuki, and was an over zealous
father by then me a video of his son Chase
doing the same thing. I'm not sure if it landed
(26:04):
the same way that Saya Suzuki did it, but I
guess that's something that hitting gurus now, even in San Diego,
are are having kids do.
Speaker 7 (26:14):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Is there going to be a switch flip Dave when
these games start? You know, because these are games that
count and it's going to be interesting to see. Yeah,
he's trying to get a flip the switch because it
seems like he's just giggling up a start back there right.
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Now, he flipped he flips the switch when when the
phone rings and he's ready to go. I don't know
if he caught that, but he said he pictures the
mid being my face and that's when he flips the switch.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Well, the Dodgers are in Japan and David Basset is
with them live from Japan, laughing it up at all
of us losers back here at the State the back
of a libausine, just having a laugh, and all the
idiots just have haven't.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
I found the cool guy club, Petro. Now, Dave is
the Washington State. You're now I'm the Poloosee. Right.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
That's pretty good that Dave.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Overall, like when we're in La and there's a big event,
you know, the city kind of it's a big city,
and the city kind of absorbs the event and you
sort of just feel like you're in the city, not
let you're at the event, whether it's the Super Bowl
or whatever, World Series here or whatever. Tokyo is one
of the biggest cities in the world, obviously, does it
feel like the whole city has baseball fever? Oh?
Speaker 3 (27:34):
Yeah, without a doubt. In Korea last year, I just
did random surveys on the streets of Seoul. Not a
lot of people even knew the Dodgers or a baseball
event was happening. But there's a lot of pop up activations.
There's a Dodger Experience kind of situation where they have
a lot of memorabilia from Otani in last year's World Series.
(27:57):
So there, it's all over the city. And also I
found this out last night. They're not only selling tickets
to the exhibition and the two regular season games, but
this might be breaking news to Tanner Scott and Blake
Trent and they are selling tickets to their workout the
next two days.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
How about that?
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Well, yeah, try they're selling tickets. There's gonna be people
in the stands.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
You better flip early right now. Well, the biggest question
is are they David? So the biggest question is are
they Have they gotten those hats off the off the
shelves in Japan, those MLB hats that are now being amazed.
Speaker 3 (28:42):
They're selling for ninety yes. Yeah, Well I've seen a
couple of people with them and they are selling those
here at a few different pop up shops.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
You should bring a couple back. I should bring a
couple back. They are they are going on.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
One hundred dollars or two hundred dollars. Think you one back?
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Oh cool? Perfect? All right?
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Dave and Trying and Tanner, bless you guys. Be safe.
It's been wonderful. Catch it up and we will talk
tomorrow Dave hopefully, I.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Hope so Petro. So we'll never know what the adventures
are tomorrow. You know after today, Blake Trynon may want
to do a lot of other tourist excursions with me
and Tanner. Scott is silent assassin in the back.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
They sent they sent you to a place that doesn't
accept Americans on the TV. That's pretty amazing, and like
you up and sent you into the devil's den. Amazing.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
Bless you, Dave and have fun. Awesome to hear from
Dave in Japan. Sorry, Narra, how do you go? Mister audios? Oh,
don't play this. This guy died in a terrible plane crash.
Nobody knows that except you. Well, now everybody knows. We'll
(29:55):
be right back with some reaction to our check in
with Japan. That was pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Why can't I don't want I don't think anybody should
be allowed to dance on TikTok.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
We want to be hard that doesn't make any difference.
I don't want to see you dancing on TikTok all soft.
I'm with rich Rod so that so that means that
he's literally gonna have to hire a new position just
to manage just to watch players at social media.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Hey, look like look look the little you get tagged
in the video. Look like you were dancing a little
bit there. I mean you kind of moved your hips.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
He's gonna be like a key and peels kid, They're
gonna get on there. Hey hey, hey, there was two pomps.
There was two rhythmic steps.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
We will talk some college football the next hour, because
that's what George and I do. So if you don't
like it, I don't care. We've had a great show
so far. I'd like to think Don McClain joined US
Live from the Big Ten Tournament. We talked to Matt
Live from the Big Ten Tournament, and we talked to
David Vase from Japan. Now I'll say this, George, they
(30:58):
really made it feel like I mean, let's be honest,
between the first hour, Matt and Dawn Live from from
uh Saint Elmos kind of made it feel like the
Big Ten Tournament is the place to be yes, and
that we suck yep. And then we talked to Vassay,
this was worse, and he's got those two guys in
(31:18):
the back like and they're like laughing, and we're like, hey,
well you guys, you know pretty soon you're gonna have
to play a game.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
You guys gonna flip the switch. Guy's gonna flip the.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
You know, they were really kind of I mean, that
felt like uh, I mean, I felt like I was
getting like wildly. I felt like I was getting clowned
like that was I felt like I was a seventh
grader again, just getting punked, you know, for not being
able to breathe through my nose and having stiff sleeves
from wiping my nose so many times with my shirt sleeves.
But yeah, David Vassey Live from Japan kind of an insult,
(31:52):
but also very telling. You know, those Japanese television's crazy
infrenetic and just wild, and and you think of him
going on like a morning show and then they mike
him up and they just like, Wow, what a trip, dude.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
I did not know that they would not let you
in certain restaurants.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Bro, Well, why don't you ask Colin Yee, who's half
Japanese half Chinese but only speaks English. Colin Yee, our
producer here, just got back from Japan, and uh, I'm
and his brother lives out there. My little brother used
to live in Japan too. But that's a prevalent thing, right.
There's a lot of places that they have they have
no time for Americans.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
So do you get to go? So can you sneak
in there?
Speaker 7 (32:34):
I think they I could fool them for a bit,
like I could say hello and Japanese or whatever, and
then once they realized that all I speak is English,
there's like there's a little bit of oh gosh, this
is America.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
You're like too late, I'm already got to fool them. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
But for all the you know people talk about like
you know, equality and all that different stuff, It's like
you go to I mean, now, I've never went any
place that I've ever traveled, like in Greece, you know,
every I mean, my god, they murder each other over
customers at a restaurant, you know, I mean they you know,
they they want you in their restaurant, for God's sakes.
But Japan is very famous for that. No American why
(33:14):
is what they say. Wow, you didn't know that. Huh No,
And I doubt they'd do that to you.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
George. You don't think so, No, I do.
Speaker 6 (33:21):
Actually, they brought to you.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
By your so called Toyota dealers. We make it easy.
Do they know I'm American? Do you think they would
know I'm American?
Speaker 1 (33:30):
They might figure it out, George, Okay, they might. I
don't know where would they think you're from New Zealand?
Where'd you come from? I mean you could be Yeah,
you're right like Ruiy Hatchamorrow. Ye see, exactly like Rester Pete.
George Reister went to Silmar and I went to North Hollywood.
We're all Dodger fans.
Speaker 2 (33:49):

I mean I'm not calling you up so you root

for anything, Okay, I mean I grew up in here.
I'm a Dodger fan. I mean I remember Fernando Mania,
for God's sakes, you know, I remember seeing Oral Herscheys
are up, yes, when I was a kid, and and
all those different Steve Sachs, you know who. They've become
(02:12):
friends of the show. It's amazing for me. But at
the same time, you know, you never want to be
too close to something. We cover the Dodgers, I say, Doyer, Doyer, Dorier.
I don't act like a baseball expert or anything like that.
But I never really thought of you, George, so I
care about the Dodger. I always just thought of you
as like an organ guy. Oh see, you know what
I mean. I never thought of you as like a
guy and like a baseball hat. I mean it just
(02:34):
explained your Dodger fandom, George. I mean, I don't know. Yeah,
I see it now, Yes, I see your Dodger hat. Yeah,
because they just won a World Series.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Everybody got a Dodger hat on. No Peyton, Peyton, reister,
How long have I been? Do I wear Dodger hats
every day? Or do I not? Every day? All right?
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Well, for how long you are four? Like ice Cube,
wear's a white Sox hat exactly.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Okay, all right.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
I'm not trying to call you these. I'm not trying
to call you out or anything like that. All I
know is that calling you works with the Dodgers. And
when George came in today, Colin, when you went down
and got him, did he say, hey, I really love
the work you do. Is the engineer on those Dodger broadcasts.
I'm a big fan. He did not see that, but
he was. He didn't know he was wearing that Dodger hat.
(03:19):
That looked very very cool. That's interesting. You got that
Dodger hat on. Do you know that we are the
home of the Dodger? Did he say that, I might
have dropped. Yeah, you know we're getting ready for the
Dodgers season. He did did drop that.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
He did talk about them getting to Japan. Did you
go to the parade or anything. No, I'm not a
part of playoff game and the playoff playoff game? Yes
you did, yes, and it's one more than I went to.
There was one game. Oh, so I think I went
to the first one. So I was in the suite
for the first one, and I had tickets to go
to the Dodgers game because I think it fell on
(03:53):
the same day or the day after the Oregon Ohio
State game in Eugene, and I was in Eugene, and
uh and so I gave him to my dad. M
You are a.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
World traveler man. You get around wow man like Pac.
That's back when Tupac was a lover before he became
Do you ever see Tupac's video where he's in like
a single it talking about like how he loves to
dance and then he went on gangster. Yes that I
(04:24):
had maybe those rappers. Maybe the rappers we grew up
with weren't as gangster as we thought. You ever think
about that, Yes, unless it's Sugar Free and DJ Quick
there is.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Oh, they they are about that life. Yeah, Sugar Pomona.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Yeah, well I remember Above the Law and Black Superman
and that's see people talk about La rap. But if
they don't know about Black Superman and Above the Law
and Baseline Drive, then I don't want to hear nothing
from anybody about anything ever. Kendrick Lamar what, No, He's great,
That's okay. I don't look.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
People are always like, well, did you like the super
Bowl thing?
Speaker 1 (04:57):
I was like, well, I mean I'm a four a
seven year old man, you know, who is a complete
culture snob when it comes to music and books and
movies and stuff like that. So no, I mean it's
not that wasn't for me. They didn't make that for me.
But I liked it.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
The reason I liked don't always acknowledge that that that
you can say I appreciated that that was good for me.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
He go out there and do exactly what he does.
He did his show with his people, his stuff. He
didn't try to have Britney Spears out there with him
or anything like that. Like that's more offensive to me
when you have the Blues Brothers, Aerosmith, Britney Spears and
Nelly and they're all out there screaming at the same
time trying to attract every appeal as widely as possible.
(05:46):
Like hire an artist and let the artists do their thing,
and that's the artist because everybody.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Everything is not for everybody, and that's okay. So and
just just be you and play to the people who
like you.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
It is.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
It wasn't a day for you to try to Oh,
let's you. You weren't gonna win over not people who
don't listen to hip hop.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Now, I will say this, I don't want to hear
anything about Kendrick Lamar if you don't know about Black
Superman and the fake ass truth.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
All right, time for.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
The word of the day. You love the fake ass truth,
the word of the Give me the scoop about the
fake ass truth. Although I believe Jim Brown, the great
running the Great, the great violent running back Jim Brown,
(06:40):
I do believe he was the closest to getting us
a truce between the Bloods and the crips. There's nothing
like a new coach being hired at a university and
a guy comes in and he says a few words
to the whole team.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Oh, everybody's excited. Everybody's all geeked up, look at our god. Yeah.
And and remember, so I asked I got when I
interviewed Rob Mullins up there at Oregon the athletic director.
I asked him a question because when we hear coaches hired,
what did they what does the athletic director or whoever
(07:13):
introduce him say, this was the only guy that we
all got our guy? Yeah, And so I asked him.
I was like, so, uh so, how many people are
really offered? And uh he said that that's what they
tell you to say at the at the Athletic director convention,
that that's that that's the talking point. They're like, listen, listen, listen,
you only say that you offered one guy, when in
(07:34):
reality there's you.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Know how it all goes back to the Mike d'mone.
I mean, you're from the valley the Mike Damone basis
of living from fast times of Richmond High one of
his pillars of life, like the five Pillars of Islam.
Mike Damone, wherever you are that's where you want to be,
the place to be.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
That's the greatest place ever. Isn't this great?
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Yep?
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Isn't this great?
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Well, speaking of that of Colorado football coach.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Pride, Yes, hired very very accomplished running back coach, probably
the greatest running back of all time. I mean, other
than you can hire Dickerson, you can hire Jim Brown.
You can't hire Oj or Jim, they're dead. I guess
you can hire Marcus Allen, Tomlinson, Ladanian. You can hire Ladanian.
(08:24):
I mean, you know, Adrian, you can don't get much
further than that now, I mean, we don't go too
much further. Uh. And they hired Marshall faul Yes, they
hired Marshall Faulk, the great San Diego State man out
of Louisiana actually and ended up in San Diego State.
But here he is in Colorado. And here is Marshall
Falk's speech. I'm gonna give him an f uh no, Well,
(08:46):
let's just hear. He comes out and he tells the
kids that you know, google me. I mean it's Marshall,
it's a Hall of Famer. He tries to make like
a joke and then he gives a speech about effort.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
George, he ready to hear it.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Okay, le's see if I'm ready to with Marshall fall in
front of the Colorado Buffs in March.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
I'm new.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
For those of you that don't know me, I'm Marshall fulk.
I don't want to get into stats. If you want
those on Google, Google check me out.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
I knew I was gonna get you.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Here's it didn't get him because most of those they
don't know that was his attempt at Hue. Yeah, but
they don't know. They're young people and they don't know. No,
they don't know you. No, they don't know you. No,
they really don't know. They they probably because I played
for Charles White, and I knew who Charles White was.
I knew what he did, I knew what he was
(09:39):
like as a player.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
These kids don't watch football and study football and and
and yes there are I'm talking about as a as
a whole, there are not like these young kids. They
don't study the history of football, and they don't spend
their time watching you know, old highlights and and and
all of that, because there's so much on their damn
(10:04):
phone about everything about about what's going on.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Don't you get on your phone and look up Marshall fault.
But anyway, here first, the week ass joke.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Because it's grainy there, I promise you. I've had kids
say to me, oh man, I can't watch that. Yeah,
that's grainy. That's not an HD.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
It's a shame very shit. All right now, Peyton, I
want you to listen. He's gonna talk about effort.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
I was gonna get you. Here's what I want you
to understand. And this goes for everybody, including the running
back room. All right. How you do one thing is
how you do everything.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Think.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
How you do one thing is how you do everything.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
By Think about that. Now, never heard that one How
you do one thing is how you do everything? At
everybody in the running back room you listen to this, Yeah,
well you don't have to comment.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
Wait, think about that. How you do one thing is
how you do everything. If you if you slack off
in school, then at some point in time.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
These kids don't about the stool anymore.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
The guy to your right, the guy in front of you,
guy behind you, they can't count on you because you're going.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
To slack off.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
It's the last time you heard it.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
How you do is how you do everything.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Back at my time, they'd be like, hey, where's so
and so?
Speaker 2 (11:22):
He ain't playing? You're suspended for a week. It's grades.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
When was the last time that has not happened in
ten years?
Speaker 2 (11:28):
That used to happen all all of a sudden going
to school. Now there was a there was a kid
and and to your point, Petros, there was a kid
that out here anymore that got suspended four grades. And
I was because he was ineligible. And I was like, wait,
what how does that happen? How?
Speaker 1 (11:46):
But now with the nil money we're paying this kid
in eligible, my ass. Let's hear the rest of this
very very inspirational speech.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
How you do one thing is how you do everything.
Speaker 5 (11:55):
So I'm gonna be real brief and say this to you.
What we want from you. It requires no talent. Effort
requires no talent. Hustle requires no talent. You don't have
to be the fastest, you don't have to be the strongest,
you don't have to be the smartest. To give effort,
it requires no talent. If you give effort, watch what
(12:18):
it brings to you.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Don't worry about that talent you could be out there,
don't worry about that talent.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
And you'd be stiff Booty Leroy with knees that don't band.
And you could.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Try You're just say stiff booty.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
You could be stiff boot and you go out there
and you could give all the effort in the world,
and you are still going to probably get yourself hurt
and get somebody else hurt if you have no talent
or speed or brains or skill. We're talking about big
time college football. Yes, what is he talking? This ain't
the freshman team.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Effort requires no talent?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
What now? He is right about that part. That part
is true effort does it require talent? However, to be
a good football player, Talent is a talent is probably
the number one.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
To be sitting in that room, and is a basic requirement.
Like like you can't be like, hey, I played some
high school ball. You'll get wrecked out there. You'll hurt
yourself or someone else.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
What in God's name, hey man, don't don't don't bring
me them talented players. Don't bring me them. I want effort, Yes,
don't bring me them. Marshall Fawkes from Yeah who went
to San Diego States, Like Marshall falk buried on the
depth chart, and then the first game out he rushes
for like four hundred yards.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
One of the most talented football players of all time.
Talking about effort. All right, let's finish it up. Is
he done? Oh, he was done. He did say he
was gonna keep it brief. Yeah he did. So good
luck to the Colorado running back room. Okay, they don't
have to run the ball, so he was. They were
like last in the football what do you coach as
(14:01):
a Colorado running back coach? Hot routes and chip the
d n I don't even.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Know if they chipped the the way the wayster door
got hit last year. I don't even know if they
they just they just wave into division.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
They don't they They're weird, you know. And you got
to give him credit for what he did, yes, you know, absolutely.
And and their ability I think they really changed because
their ability to rush the passer, you know, they became
different defense.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
So okay, so to this point, who did they bring
in on the defensive line last year? Warren Sap? Warren Sap,
So there was some net impact.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
So there was and you know, it would have taken
a lot of bravery to hire Warren Sap because I
believe it was this century that he balked two hookers
heads together like coconuts.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
He literally did that, Yes, in a in a in
a hotel and a Marshall fall left.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Know of the NFL network for something on Savory Coach Prime.
Don't care, he's like the Chiefs.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Time to win. This is top number of the day.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
You have the number or you want to still talk
about freaking uh Colorado D Line.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Can we lose the number of the day? Yes? I
think we lost? Oh my god?
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Is it? Is it under you?
Speaker 2 (15:13):
George? I mean we can ride it for you, but
we can't. I know the number of the day is three.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
And what's it about? It's about Southwest?
Speaker 2 (15:20):
Oh yes, yes, okay, let me let me give you.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
In a row that we're talking about Southwest Airlines. Okay,
charging for bags exactly so. Southwest Airlines announced their new
bag policy and people are very upset. Of course they
should be so so Southwest famous line bags fly free,
yeah right, charge for bag exactly so. So now you've
gone the the the frontier. Uh spirit Airlines charging for bags,
(15:50):
you might as well charge for air and and remember
Matt's not upset about this, even though he's a big
Southwest guy.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
But this is a plus. Yeah, of course because these
all over the country on somebody else's dime, So of course,
so of course then yes, he's he's a list everywhere,
so this doesn't bother him because it has no impact
on the people. If you buy a list select or
(16:17):
whatever the most premium thing is that you can buy
on Southwest, it doesn't impact you. Then, so of course
Matt has no cares in the world. And remember last year,
Southwest is the same people that said that they were
going to do away with the with like the number system,
the boarding process, and that they were actually going to
assign c ABNC is over. You can't throw money and
(16:39):
get inn a group anymore. So they're actually losing all
the things that made them special.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
They're getting called out. But the number of the day,
I believe I remember it is that they were on Twitter.
They're called out a lot.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Yes, yes, yes, so they've been called out on Twitter
a lot. And then they went on and said you
basically saying that you guys are acting like we traded Luca.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
We didn't trade Luca. At least we didn't trade Luca
don che Yes, that was their response.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
That was. That was clever.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
That was that wasn't in a position to trade him
in the first place. Yeah, like he didn't play it,
But that was like a B West. I don't know
if Luca's ever been on a Southwest flaying, to be
honest with.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
You, that was like a B minus Wendy's Twitter tweet. Yeah,
a little bit. Yeah, like when the Chicken Wars. Yeah, yeah,
it's snappy, it's it's clever, but at the end of
the day, at the end of the day, it is
why charging for bags? Yes, yes, you already expected people
to have bags on the plane anyway, that's like when
(17:43):
you I have heard effort requires no talent Southwest, correct.
I have heard that on like Spirit and Frontier that
they charge you. They charge you for carry ons, charge
you for carry on bag. Oh, I've heard about this too.
So the so the expectation is that you're gonna get
on the lane with just with just your body. I mean,
(18:03):
where you where? Where have you ever traveled? Pockets full? Dude?
Speaker 1 (18:08):
I got to bring my sleep mask. Maybe you can
shop when you get there.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
So I rarely check bags when I go anywhere. I
can go somewhere for a week with a carry on?
How so, like, what else did you expect me to bring?
I take day trips all the time.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
I do expect you to bring a bag, and they
expect you to pay for it.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
So why not this song of the day? What do
you want from me to why I look like an
airline executive? It's not by fault. Why not just charge
three dollars more on every single ticket? We'll get somebody
on Ronnie. I'll ask somebody I don't know.
Speaker 6 (18:49):
Interesting conversation there. Houdini is a legendary hip hop group
from Brooklyn with our song of the day called Friends. Yes, George,
because the Petros and Money Show has friends, and we've
got a longtime friend sitting in our smoky circle today
in place of Matt Smith on a crunchy groop on Thursday.
He's a former NFL tight end with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
(19:11):
Now he's a popular sports broadcaster, graciously taking the time
to spend four hours with great sports talk. It's our friend,
George Reister. Hey, George, looking good?
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Yeah man, Hey. When I got the call from the
man who is deathly afraid of snakes, I had to
say yes.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Both Kate's Yes, there's Kate scared of snakes. What you
don't remember to call? I remember that with the snake
in the driveway down the shovel and he had to
get his wife.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
I remember it now. Well, that's great, recall George, and
that way with mice. We'll be right back. You shouldn't
have told me that. David Fasse Live Live from Japan.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Everybody next, Hey, everybody, what's cracking. Very excited about this interview.
Been looking forward to this moment for while. Now David
Vasse and the Dodgers have touched down in Japan. George,
I'm a little worried about this interview now because I
think he's in a cab with some Dodgers Tanner, Scott
and maybe Blake trying in the car.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Without holding him hostage. Well, I mean, I'm not gonna
get the interview I want.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
I'm not gonna get the honesty because when Vassa starts
to give his baseball takes, those baseball types are gonna
start making all kinds of sounds and making Dave uncomfortable.
But anyway, Live from Japan, it is all happening. David
Vasse Live from Spring Training, the home of the Dodgers is.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
With an inside look at the Dodgers. This is the
Vassi Report with David.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Vasei live from Japan Exhibition Games, but Tuesday from Tokyo.
David Vasse Dodgers on deck two am first pitch of
three zero five and LF Dodger talk afterwards. Right. Uh,
Dave is in Tokyo with the Dodgers big dinner last night.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Dave, how's it going set the same forest? Brother?
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Well, we're on the streets of Tokyo right now in
a limousine taxi with two Dodger relievers that may be
on Vanity Fair in Tokyo after the Japanese people see
them in their uniforms pitching in all their glory, and
that's Blake Trianon and Tanner Scott. We are part of
a caravan where we're headed to a sumo jim that
(21:24):
was set up at backstage. Dodgers. Your guy Brian Flues
is in Japan and set that up. So, yes, I'm
trying to live up to the expectations. Blake has took
me on a high pedestal in his life and I'm
always just trying to live up to it and try
never to.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Disappoint I guess the question is, Dave, is it like
you thought it would be? What's what's it like out there?
What was the reception when you guys got there? What
have you been doing since you landed?
Speaker 3 (21:51):
Well, contrary to what Dave Roberts told you, there was
not millions of people greeting us.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
You said one million people that made.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
News the Dodgers. Maybe they went to a different airport,
maybe they went to the bank of Tokyo, but that
was not what greeted us. The Dodgers went to great
lengths and the MLB security to keep the Dodgers oscolated
and safe from point A to point B. But last
night I actually had a very bizarre night in Tokyo.
(22:20):
I agreed to a to an interview at a Japanese
TV studio last night and it was for the biggest
morning show in Tokyo. From what I understand, they were
airing it this morning. So we did the interview last
night at TV Asai. The went to five minutes sit
(22:44):
down interview. I felt like I was in being grilled
in an interrogation room because it was a very warm
room with just white walls. And then after that I
asked for recommendations to where to where to go to eat,
and they took the opportunity to make reservations at a
very local place and mic me up, follow me on
(23:07):
the streets of Japan. So I played no, do what
they wanted, and then we went into the restaurant and
I ate. But when I first walked in, the owner
did not want an American in the restaurant.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Yeah, I told you they would do that. I told
you that.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
What happened, Yeah, that happened. If you walk into some
restaurants in Japan they say no Americans.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
It ain't just.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Negotiated and a full little I would say capacity thirty
person sashimi authentic place allowed us to sit in while
all these locals were staring at me.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
I remember.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
It was very bizarre, so a great time my first
night grating whool.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Record scratch moment.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
So you weren't at the o Tani the sushi fast
with the players.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
No, no, I don't believe that's taking place yet. Nobody
in this and this text will confirm or deny that.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Interesting, But.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
So what I learned, it has not taken place yet.
The guys needed their rest. There's a workout. Today, Otani, Yamamoto,
and Sazaki will hold a press conference, and that's the
beginning of the events here on the Dodgers World of Tour.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
How do players feel about the playing multiple games before
the season actually starts and then having to go back
and play preseason games again.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
Hey, well they did this last year and they won
the World Series, so I would say it worked out
pretty well. So I feel like I feel like this
time around, there's a lot more excitement to be here
in Japan with Otani and just to experience what it's like.
And it'll be rocking fifty five thousand plus in the
Tokyo Dome. But everybody seems to be in great spirits
(25:00):
right now. I feel like maybe the excitement of this experience,
being in the in the cab with me and doing
a live radio interview from Japan is what's really got
the adrenaline running. I feel like this is setting the
tone for their trip.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Well, it is interesting.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
You kind of give the impression that it's sort of
every man for themselves. You know, you got a couple
of relievers in a limo with you. Uh, people are
scattered all over the city. What's what?
Speaker 2 (25:22):
What? Uh is that kind of how it is.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
Memo as the other lemos landon Nak and his birthing
hips with Trustin Robleski and Clayton Kershaw. So we'll see
whether or not Nac next use those birthing hips to
get in the sumo ring.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Uh did you see the center fielder for the Cubs
pull out the samurai sort and cut those balls in half?
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (25:44):
Yeah, says the Zuki. Yes, yes, I saw that. That
was in Arizona and George Lee, who is a close
personal friend of ours at the station. Uh, wanted to
one up, says a Zuki, and was an over zealous
father by then me a video of his son Chase
doing the same thing. I'm not sure if it landed
(26:04):
the same way that Saya Suzuki did it, but I
guess that's something that hitting gurus now, even in San Diego,
are are having kids do.
Speaker 7 (26:14):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Is there going to be a switch flip Dave when
these games start? You know, because these are games that
count and it's going to be interesting to see. Yeah,
he's trying to get a flip the switch because it
seems like he's just giggling up a start back there right.
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Now, he flipped he flips the switch when when the
phone rings and he's ready to go. I don't know
if he caught that, but he said he pictures the
mid being my face and that's when he flips the switch.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Well, the Dodgers are in Japan and David Basset is
with them live from Japan, laughing it up at all
of us losers back here at the State the back
of a libausine, just having a laugh, and all the
idiots just have haven't.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
I found the cool guy club, Petro. Now, Dave is
the Washington State. You're now I'm the Poloosee. Right.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
That's pretty good that Dave.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Overall, like when we're in La and there's a big event,
you know, the city kind of it's a big city,
and the city kind of absorbs the event and you
sort of just feel like you're in the city, not
let you're at the event, whether it's the Super Bowl
or whatever, World Series here or whatever. Tokyo is one
of the biggest cities in the world, obviously, does it
feel like the whole city has baseball fever? Oh?
Speaker 3 (27:34):
Yeah, without a doubt. In Korea last year, I just
did random surveys on the streets of Seoul. Not a
lot of people even knew the Dodgers or a baseball
event was happening. But there's a lot of pop up activations.
There's a Dodger Experience kind of situation where they have
a lot of memorabilia from Otani in last year's World Series.
(27:57):
So there, it's all over the city. And also I
found this out last night. They're not only selling tickets
to the exhibition and the two regular season games, but
this might be breaking news to Tanner Scott and Blake
Trent and they are selling tickets to their workout the
next two days.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
How about that?
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Well, yeah, try they're selling tickets. There's gonna be people
in the stands.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
You better flip early right now. Well, the biggest question
is are they David? So the biggest question is are
they Have they gotten those hats off the off the
shelves in Japan, those MLB hats that are now being amazed.
Speaker 3 (28:42):
They're selling for ninety yes. Yeah, Well I've seen a
couple of people with them and they are selling those
here at a few different pop up shops.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
You should bring a couple back. I should bring a
couple back. They are they are going on.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
One hundred dollars or two hundred dollars. Think you one back?
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Oh cool? Perfect? All right?
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Dave and Trying and Tanner, bless you guys. Be safe.
It's been wonderful. Catch it up and we will talk
tomorrow Dave hopefully, I.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Hope so Petro. So we'll never know what the adventures
are tomorrow. You know after today, Blake Trynon may want
to do a lot of other tourist excursions with me
and Tanner. Scott is silent assassin in the back.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
They sent they sent you to a place that doesn't
accept Americans on the TV. That's pretty amazing, and like
you up and sent you into the devil's den. Amazing.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
Bless you, Dave and have fun. Awesome to hear from
Dave in Japan. Sorry, Narra, how do you go? Mister audios? Oh,
don't play this. This guy died in a terrible plane crash.
Nobody knows that except you. Well, now everybody knows. We'll
(29:55):
be right back with some reaction to our check in
with Japan. That was pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Why can't I don't want I don't think anybody should
be allowed to dance on TikTok.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
We want to be hard that doesn't make any difference.
I don't want to see you dancing on TikTok all soft.
I'm with rich Rod so that so that means that
he's literally gonna have to hire a new position just
to manage just to watch players at social media.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Hey, look like look look the little you get tagged
in the video. Look like you were dancing a little
bit there. I mean you kind of moved your hips.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
He's gonna be like a key and peels kid, They're
gonna get on there. Hey hey, hey, there was two pomps.
There was two rhythmic steps.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
We will talk some college football the next hour, because
that's what George and I do. So if you don't
like it, I don't care. We've had a great show
so far. I'd like to think Don McClain joined US
Live from the Big Ten Tournament. We talked to Matt
Live from the Big Ten Tournament, and we talked to
David Vase from Japan. Now I'll say this, George, they
(30:58):
really made it feel like I mean, let's be honest,
between the first hour, Matt and Dawn Live from from
uh Saint Elmos kind of made it feel like the
Big Ten Tournament is the place to be yes, and
that we suck yep. And then we talked to Vassay,
this was worse, and he's got those two guys in
(31:18):
the back like and they're like laughing, and we're like, hey,
well you guys, you know pretty soon you're gonna have
to play a game.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
You guys gonna flip the switch. Guy's gonna flip the.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
You know, they were really kind of I mean, that
felt like uh, I mean, I felt like I was
getting like wildly. I felt like I was getting clowned
like that was I felt like I was a seventh
grader again, just getting punked, you know, for not being
able to breathe through my nose and having stiff sleeves
from wiping my nose so many times with my shirt sleeves.
But yeah, David Vassey Live from Japan kind of an insult,
(31:52):
but also very telling. You know, those Japanese television's crazy
infrenetic and just wild, and and you think of him
going on like a morning show and then they mike
him up and they just like, Wow, what a trip, dude.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
I did not know that they would not let you
in certain restaurants.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Bro, Well, why don't you ask Colin Yee, who's half
Japanese half Chinese but only speaks English. Colin Yee, our
producer here, just got back from Japan, and uh, I'm
and his brother lives out there. My little brother used
to live in Japan too. But that's a prevalent thing, right.
There's a lot of places that they have they have
no time for Americans.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
So do you get to go? So can you sneak
in there?
Speaker 7 (32:34):
I think they I could fool them for a bit,
like I could say hello and Japanese or whatever, and
then once they realized that all I speak is English,
there's like there's a little bit of oh gosh, this
is America.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
You're like too late, I'm already got to fool them. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
But for all the you know people talk about like
you know, equality and all that different stuff, It's like
you go to I mean, now, I've never went any
place that I've ever traveled, like in Greece, you know,
every I mean, my god, they murder each other over
customers at a restaurant, you know, I mean they you know,
they they want you in their restaurant, for God's sakes.
But Japan is very famous for that. No American why
(33:14):
is what they say. Wow, you didn't know that. Huh No,
And I doubt they'd do that to you.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
George. You don't think so, No, I do.
Speaker 6 (33:21):
Actually, they brought to you.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
By your so called Toyota dealers. We make it easy.
Do they know I'm American? Do you think they would
know I'm American?
Speaker 1 (33:30):
They might figure it out, George, Okay, they might. I
don't know where would they think you're from New Zealand?
Where'd you come from? I mean you could be Yeah,
you're right like Ruiy Hatchamorrow. Ye see, exactly like Rester Pete.
George Reister went to Silmar and I went to North Hollywood.
We're all Dodger fans.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Leave him alone.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
North Hollywood Huskies, now that's for real. Not Mar is
almost in like Palmdale.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
Do you know what we did to North Hollywood at
that point point in time? Because Silmar from the from
before I got there until a little while after I left.
Like past CJ. Gable, they didn't lose a league game. CJ. Gable,
that's a name from the past. He's a coaching at St.
At Saint Jennevieve.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
Now North Hollywood hust you know the most famous North
Hollywood Husky football player of all times?

No idea Adam Carolla. Wait, yeah, he's a media person.
Speaker 1 (34:30):

North Hollywood High.

a note because she likes to give us fun facts
