Petros and Money, Rosen Money, Rosen Money, Hey Bud.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
The party that that if I want to keep it
all the way real to the job that coach Ham
and Rob did with the accusations that we got coming.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
In that kind of inspired me too.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Yeah, you know, like you know, we got a really
good uh really good team.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
They did a great job in the summer.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.

powered by Zenhi Sushi Fast Fresh, it.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Easy, It's got for your final art. Fun fact, it's
fun and effect.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
It's the yellower three facts.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Fun fact.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
The reason we say redhead, and understand this precedes firecrotch,
so that had not been around yet. That's a little
bit more of a recent development. The reason we say
redhead instead of orange head for hair color is because
the English did not differentiate between red and orange until
the fifteen forties. They're too stupid and redhead had been
(02:28):
coined long before that.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Yeah, that's why you lost to Greece and the u
Ain for champions. Yeah, two to one, you toothless Limeies
so give us back our statues. British Museum translucent losers.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
You're not getting those back, Thiebes poachers.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
All right, it's time for the quick hits. Everybody, come
to MS quick hits. Come make it quick, y'all. Oh yeah,
Game five of the NLDS tomorrow, n my biggest game
in the history of the game. First pitch, Dodger Stadium,
five oh eight. Winner gets a long poots to the
face and the.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Winner gets a long poots to the face. Oh yeah,
I mean I get for us poll smokers over here,
it's reward reward. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
It's a reward for your fightings. It's a reward for
your fighting experience.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Smoking that pole.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
NLCS versus the Mets, Mets, Mets, and that would make
Vic even more insufferable. The Dodgers haven't won a postseason
series at Dodger Stadium in front of a crowd since
the twenty thirteen NLDS against the Braves, not counting that
one game wild card in twenty twenty one. Their last
last six series wins, including twenty twenty, of course, have
(03:49):
all come on the road.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
That little nugget courtesy of Tim Kates.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
How about that how about that the roof at Trumpic
Cannafield blew off at the home of the Tampa Bay Rays,
severely damaged clean off due to the high winds from
Hurricane Milton. Terrible, terrible scene out there. The Tampa Bay
Buccaneers said that while surveys are being conducted, Old Raymond
James Stadium, in their practice facility only suffered cosmetic damage.
(04:15):
Even the cannons remained Phalliccaneers on the boat Buccaneers.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Imagine if that boat ended up in somebody's front yard
like some of the other ones. Buccaneers be unfortunate, it would.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
The Chargers are two and two coming off of bye week.
They somebody tried to speak three losses into existence, but
it hasn't happened yet.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
It's not happened.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Maybe, but they're going to be in Denver this Sunday
to face Bonix from Oregon and Auburn and the Broncos
listen on Alt ninety eight to seven dog or Matt mddy,
smith shennon Fair and Daniel Jeremiah on the call. Triumphant
return after a bye week and the Rams are on
a bye week. I believe there is the Lakers much
(05:06):
of the chagrine of Lebron James are in Milwaukee later
to take on the Milwaukee Box. Yeah, he did not want.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
To fly out there doing acquisations.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
He did not want to be a professional athlete.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
One game. We're flying in Milwaukee for one game, Yes,
on a private charter, staying in a five star hotel.
You are flying in Milwaukee for one game because Crypto
is under construction.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
With the team that you forced to draft your son.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Yes, you can take the trip with your son. Oh,
maybe he's super uncomfortable because that's where this secret family
is and it's going to be really off court on
the first road trip with his son, Like, hey, this
is the first time we're hitting the road.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Milwaukee's an interesting choice. Here's my secret family. Brilliant place
to hide a woman. Right, here's JJ Reddick reiterating the
whole thing yesterday.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
It's a long way to go for a preseason game.
Just just thought, so on this.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Not an ideal preseason for US.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Okay, well, you know Lebron doesn't like it, so of
course I don't either.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
God, what a bunch of a holes, Like, do they
there's hurricanes? Do they know how they're coming off?
Speaker 3 (06:14):
You're the head coach. You say, well, we play the
game that's on the schedule.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Like on the schedule, people running for their lives and
like clinging to the sides of mountains and Lebron's complaining
about that stuff.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
And I'm a sound to see m a secret family
so soon.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Put your face back in your Malcolm X book. And
that's not true.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
But for him it probably becomes very, very frustrating to
the position as you have the control without actually having.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
The If you have the control, control, they drafted his son,
who sucks his son, Give me back my son, they
drafted him.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
The Clippers preseason continues tomorrow in Seattle versus the Portland Trailblazers.
We might become intimately involved with the Clippers preseason if
the Dodgers can't win on Friday, cokenos and beating beats.
The NBA is exploring the play games in China gag
because why not. They do a great job. The league
last played preseason game in the country back at twenty nineteen.
(07:20):
Instead of having like an old lady dance crew, they're
gonna have the Wigers come out and do a dance.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
What about awigas You're gonna lecture me. You're gonna lecture
me on politics exactly, and something you don't like in
the civil process when you don't care about the wigers.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Adam Silver said, I don't care about the wiggers. I
think we will bring back games to China. At some point,
China's government took us off the air for a period
of time.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Thanks Darryl Mory.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
We accepted that we stood by our values well, and
I stood by Hong Kong. Anybody in our league has
the right to speak out on political matters.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Okay, So why don't you, Lebron huh, lecture me with
you your slogan on the back of a warm up shirt.
But you don't care about it, we guys.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Well, Lebron wants to have control over political issues, but
he doesn't have control, even though people perceive that he
does have got that control.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
You know how frustrating that is for him, very that
everybody thinks he has control but he doesn't. And the
reality of it is, this is deep, that's not true.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
God, what an idiot.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
But for him it probably becomes very very frustrating to
the position as you have the control without actually having
the control.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
We'll stick your face in Adell's Fish and Chips. You
blow hard. USC is three and two seasons over. They
lost at Minnesota. Came I can't recover from losing to
PJ Flex.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
Now what I heard on a Saturday podcast, they would
probably get a bunch of sponsors.
Speaker 5 (08:43):
You know, this idea just popped into my head.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Oh yeah, here it is.
Speaker 5 (08:46):
I'm always looking for new podcasts. Scond Why shouldn't I
do a Saturday podcast on USC football? You know, make
it about twenty weeks, talk about all their victories, pac
ten titles with Lincoln Riley recruiting five star.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Commitments, smoking a cigar. Sounds like he's smokes.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Easy to find a sponsor.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
They line up love, would they?
Speaker 5 (09:08):
I love recruiting elite talent?
Speaker 3 (09:11):
Yeah, they line up do it every week.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Even if they beat Penn State, who cares. Saturday at
the Coliseum, they're a four point underdog. They lost to Minnesota,
and that's who UCLA plays. They host PJ. Fleck and Minnesota.
Minnesota's three and three. They got to five hundred by
beating u R three. Ucla is one and four and
if you say anything bad about him and they beat
you gotta be bad.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
It's gonna be bad tennis, Matt, Yeah, this is a bummer.
Raffi Nadal one of the all time great tennis players,
not only an exceptional champion, but fun to watch play
the sport. He is retiring. He has done end of
the year thirty eight oh Rafao, first man in history
to win twenty two Brand Slam trophies. It's started by
(09:56):
dominating the French Open. Some said he was nothing but
a master of the clay, and then he went on
to dominate the sport. His final event will be Davis
Cup November, representing his home country of Espanya.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Viva Spanya. But hey, be nice of the tourists out there.
All right, We will have more great sports talk as
the show continues. We've got three things Thursday, You're dead
and a live guy birthday other day, and then we'll
get to the NFL game. Thank you for listening, everybody.
(10:36):
The Petrosen Money Show podcastable on the iHeartRadio app for
your smartphone. Tonight, we got forty nine ers at Seahawks.
What would a loss be for Brock Purty? That's George
Clooney from the movie Leatherheads or Squidward podcast our show
(10:57):
on the iHeartRadio app always there and we sure appreciate it.
You could stream it live as well. The Dodgers prevailed
in San Diego. They escaped the angry people of Pacific
Beach all the way up the five North that will
have a game tomorrow, a pivotal game five tomorrow, Morocco Casino,
(11:18):
Dodgers on deck with Cats from four to five, and
then gloriously we will get started. But right now it's
time for three things Thursday on three thingsters.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Well, as the Dodgers have forced a game five or
three things Thursday will be Dodger related. So I will
tick off three things here at the start, and then
we can dig into it as we have the previous
two and a half hours of our flex Alert show
that will be flexed as you said again back to
two o'clock courtesy of the Dodgers' victory in San Diego.
(11:59):
Well open. Our interpretation is the first thing, which is
claiming the Padre fans are annoying as all get out
front runners, that when they are winning, they are ubiquitous,
they are omnipresent. You cannot escape them. When the Padres
are winning. When they lose, they are invisible. They have
(12:21):
disappeared completely off the face of the earth. There is
not even a cricket chirp like a see an enemy exactly.
And turns out, and again we continue to tip our
cap to David Vess because he's so damn good at
what he does, our intrepid Dodger reporter, it's because the
team is front runners. When they blow home runs out
(12:42):
of the park early, when they score early, the team
starts freaking out and they flex and they dance, and
they strut and they do their hops, and they do
their flexes and they do their posine and Tatis does
his little skip before third base, and the crowd feeds
off that and it becomes reretibly energetic. Hard to overcome
(13:03):
atmosphere at Petco Park, and to some degree even when
they're in opposing parks, they just have this energy they
carry with them. And it's something Dave Roberts talked about.
But it turns out, if you score the first few runs,
it he's completely gone. It has disappeared. There is and
I understand you're not gonna celebrate nothing, but.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Are you are you mean like sleepy hollow, Like once
you cross that bridge, my friend, the curse is gone,
exactly right, it's powers end.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Dave said yesterday score Well, he said it before the
Walker Bueler game. They gotta score the double averst and
then Walker's gotta put up a zero. And he's someone
that has been at Petco Park, god knows how many times,
probably sniffing one hundred by now, and he knows and
that's exactly what this is. That's the first thing. Second thing,
(13:50):
I think it is clear, and it is something that
we discussed in game two, how perhaps that game could
have gone and Mookie's postseason could have gone so differently
had the Dodger fans been knowledgeable accepted their response.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
You're not going to be able to prove that. Man.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
You're not going to be able to say, right, hey,
you and the Alex Vessia jersey, you don't get to
throw the ball back on the field and cause an
issue because you're an idiot.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
It was not an ideal situation.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
MOOKI wants to be wanted. He wants you to want him.
He needs you to need him.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Are you saying he wants to shunt up his old
brown shoes, yes, and put on a brand new shirt.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
He'd love for you to love him. I think that
is clear that there are some athletes that do not
give a good g damn what people say, what people write,
what's going on on social media. They are few and
far between. There aren't many of them. But Mooki is
not one of them. Moki does care, and Muki was
(14:56):
affected by all the negativity. He's affected by people talking
of how he's not a real superstar, how he did
not deserve the three hundred and sixty five million dollar contracts.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Sometimes you have to tell Mookie Bets that he's.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Moogie Bets exact. And that's again David Vasse with the
salient point, Dave, that Mookie needs to be nurtured. Mookie
needs to be told, hey, you're great. People like you, Okay,
people like you. And all it took was that one
(15:29):
home run the other night, even in a loss, and
then another single and he's on base for the Grand Slam.
And we played it yesterday, and yes, there was a
bit of a negative tilt on our position regarding Moki
and how he addressed the media. Like me, we lost
six to five, But you know those couple hitch you
saw him right.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Well, I'm always I'm always I'm not gonna let you
just own that alone. I'm always good for your joining
on in the negativity.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
So now you look down and Mookie's got a higher
batting everage than ol Tani in the NLD and uh.
And finally, nobody picked the Dodgers to win this game.
We discussed that they were not only the biggest underdog
on the board of all four games being plubed, all
eight teams playing yesterday, nobody was plus odds on the
(16:16):
money line except the Dodgers. And it was a monster
plus one point thirty to win that game. And a
lot of that goes to not necessarily the owner proprietor,
but a man who at least has a stake in ownership.
How large. I don't know of Red stitch Y and
(16:37):
what he was able to put together, and I would
assume power struggle between him and rich Arelia. That's exactly
right this loss. As we dig into it, Pee is
is on Mike Shild the shill. We questioned, it really
fair to call him that he works for the put
love it he's a shill? Well, he's not a SHI employee.
Is their manager for the guy? Literally his job, We
(17:01):
questioned starting cease on short rest a guy when asked
that I've never done it before.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Now, what you did say was gonna happen did not happen.
It may it did not happen, Matt, and I'm not
gonna let you take credit for it. There was no
juice in that squeeze. Yeah, you said they were gonna
blow the ball right through his chest, there was gonna
be a hole in his chest, so you could see
the center field through his chest. And that did not happen.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
You didn't know that it happened figuratively perhaps, all right.
I said that Otani in the first at bat would
hit a ball so hard it would blow a hole
straight through the chest of Dylan Cease, that we would
be able to see second base from them. If it
did not, risk reward was way out of whack. Cease
gets shelled by the Dodgers in Game one. He gives
(17:42):
up five runs in three innings, and now he offers
up just five outs en route to again helping Mookie,
who wants to be wanted, who needs to be needed
and would love for us to love him, And he
continue to get right three runs, five outs and as
(18:04):
everyone said, was desperately needed. Let the Dodgers play with
a lead, put up zeros early, score some runs and
ride that brilliant bullpen that has been nails the last
couple months to a game for a victory. Now it worked,
it can't work long term.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
You mean every game can't be a bullpen game.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
It turns out, I don't think so. I think that's
gonna be a little bit tough for guys that while
it is certainly a salary that many of us would
love to have in our daily lives, in terms of baseball, though,
your bullpen arms that are making a couple to seven
eight million on the high end to ten twelve million
(18:44):
on the real high end, they're like, yeah, yeah, that's
sending me out there every day. Sorry, I'm gonna blow
out my arm on a one year deal because this
is the only way.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Hey, hey, in games, Hey, bullpen guys, didn't I see
you crying? I didn't. I didn't not see you crying?
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Oh and again to continue to puff at a chest. Uh.
Dave Roberts asking for MLB to make this a seven
game series. I brought this up with Jerry Hairston, and
I got brud. That's the only reason why I'm using
the word I instead of we, because I was the
one that got Brood to death. Bruh, don't care, Bruh. Whatever, Broh,
(19:24):
five games, seven games, you're gonna have to see him
bro so, bruh, bring it on, bruh. But he missed
the point, not that you're afraid of the Padres. That
wasn't the point, but the matchup screams, which is why
I found it interesting that Dave began complaining about the
matchup of the divisional series that he would rather have
it be seven games because you are not outlasting the
Padres in a seven game series? Do you do not
(19:46):
have the starting pitching?
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Can they outlast anybody in a seven game series? Now
going forward with their pitching.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Not gonna be easy. They're gonna get Yeah, the opponent's
gonna get two starts. That's like, that's that's why it
was interesting that he brought it up. Now, like, you know,
if only these things were seven games in the divisional series. Yeah,
I get that, but in this particular situation where you
have no starters and your opponent is going to get
two starts a piece for their one and two starter.
(20:14):
Michael King, you Darvish in the five gamer you can
play this bullpen thing and get away with it. Uh,
the in a five game series. The Padres Mike, He's a.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Ship, that's all he is.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Is going to make the mistake of saying, well, I'm
not gonna pitch Cease on Friday, so I'm gonna use
him tonight because he's not gonna pitch until game two
anyway of the CS that doesn't start till Monday, so
let's go ahead and get him out there. Bad decision.
You would not have used him otherwise, knowing all along
it was going to be Darvish in game five. This
is seven game series. No, you're you're pitching. You're you're
(20:48):
not pitching Dylan Ceas on three days rest for the
first time in his career and in game five. I
know what I said earlier. You know you can't allow
this thing to go to a game, you, Darvish. Anything
can happen, one thing to be dominant in game two.
But now Padres backs against the wall, Dodgers backs against
the wall, both back against the wall? Is that what
(21:11):
you Darvish does best? Wow, did a little digging around.
He is pitched in three games when his team has
faced elimination. Would you care to guess what his record
is in those three games. Well, I know what it
is in one of them, exactly right, Zero and three. Well,
there you go, elimination games zero and three. Of course
(21:32):
we all know Game seven of the twenty seventeen World
Series at Dodger Stadium one and two thirds, four earned runs.
Uh game o, Rich Hill, Dick Mountain, cannot contain himself
on the railing, get them out, scroll the damn tall.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
It would much like the Apollo death.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
And that's what the Dodgers suffered, an Apollo creed like death,
terrible following a James Brown and an Uncle Sam outfit
like pre ceremony and celebration.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Meru.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Now, I will say, because some people are probably gonna
point it out, it can be a bit misleading save
the Dodgers. Where he did melt down and got sheld
in that inning and two third he did pitch well
for the Cubs, did pitch well for the Padres in
those elimination games, but still took the losses. Okay, but
he still took the losses.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Well, then here'd be a little bit missing zero three.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
That is his record zero and three. So the big
question for the Dodgers now is what is their best approach.
Is it Yamamoto who gave up three in the first day.
We're showing his face last night, so it feels like
it could be. He didn't look like you wanted any
part of it. Is it Flarity who gave up three
in the first two innings? I'll fightch you right now.
(22:44):
Let's call, let's take it outside. Is it Flarity who
gave up three in the first two innings? Or with
a day off, do you go back to the bullpen
in an elimination contest where you shut out the padres
already and proved if we can just get some offense,
if we can make this thing work. As Nomar told us,
ten hits five runs win Dodgers last night, twelve hits
(23:06):
eight runs a win. Wiggle room in there for the
pitchers to get after it and not be too stressed
out in the late innings. And hey, of all the guys,
of all the guys, how about landin neck?
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Huh?
Speaker 3 (23:19):
How about our guy landing neck being thrown out there
on the mound?
Speaker 2 (23:23):
He made it in there. I was glad, you know,
because I didn't want us to be misleading.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
Asked to get the final three outs and preserve the
shutout and man just super cool as though nothing affects him,
gets the first hit, gives up the first hit, and
then just deal sping bang boom, gets out of the
inning eight nothing. Dodgers for all the incoming Dave Roberts takes,
and I do think some of it is warranted. DV
(23:50):
again to tip my cap to him, made a great
point yesterday when he said, after being asked why the
hell would they start Miguel Rojas, that I can't answer,
but it has He's been corrected, and yes, correct your mistakes,
right your wrongs. Edmond at short, Kik at third. It
paid off, keyk going two for four, score to run,
(24:12):
Edmund one for four with a Ribby played some damn
good defensive shortstop. Way to go, correct your mistakes, lean
into him. Freddy's a hell of a guy and he's
had a hell of a tough year. But it is
clear the ankle is not gonna get better anytime soon,
and perhaps this is the approach you'll have to take.
(24:32):
In Game five as well, the Mets have advanced New
York awaits. The Yankees are now up to one. Baseball
is patting themselves on the back thanks to the Dodgers
forcing a pivotal Game five, dreaming of a Benino what
was the other guy's name? Started with an E right
(24:53):
Evans setting up another Evans and Benino versus Petros and
Money showdown as we'd luck with that as we crossed
the flyover States and really give each other the business
about who's gonna win the series, the Mets or the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Well, we'll get you ready tomorrow. It all starts at
two two to four.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
I did not I didn't not didn't not see you crying.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Petro Si Money Show wants you to want the Dodgers
to win Game five so we can make more money
and scam can continue, and we'll be back with your
dead and live guy birthday of the day before the
big NFL game tonight, Thursday Night Football is coming up.
(25:37):
But the Dodgers, Dodger fans, and super Dodgers Sayer, the
voice of the Bolts.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
Seem it Outmenen Mats seemed me and Farhan, We're a
packaged deal moving forward.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
They're not even gonna recognize you when you get show
up at the Charger game this weekend, Matt.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
Like that's a dude. We used to see you painted
his face like a bay. That was very I love
that guy.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
That guy was so cool.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
He's very nice, but just you couldn't look at him.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Well you would say that his entrance was not seamless.
We're happy to be with you. Big football game coming up,
But the truth is everybody's basking in the glory of
the great victory last night, the Dodgers punching the padres
Pinata inside out and forcing a game five to face
(26:29):
the curvy sword of you, Darvish. And we are going
to be there from two to four tomorrow at Dodger Stadium.
Before we are yard of poulted into Illsion.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Heights, Jeff, we have the boot. The boot will be
sitting next to our car. If that car is not
out of the parking lot by four fifteen pm, they're
gonna boot us and freaking car apult it onto the
one ten freeway. So keep your head on a swivel.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Peek. Yeah, it's not Matt's fault, you know, Matt Skinny,
but I take up a lot and it's just too much,
am radio guy, to be at Tocher Stadium for such
a big game, the game five, the pivotal Game five.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
So we will Matt's got a problem with grazing. Every
time I look over, he's grazing. Yeah, he's eating of salad.
He's eating a half sandwich. Now he's got a hot dog. Oh,
what do you know? He's taking the Melissa's nuts. Now
he's eating the apricots, and he's got his fingers in
the fruit.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
He just has just nervous energy. Boss. It's not you know,
he's not trying to get after anybody. You know, I
don't mean no harm.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
Get out of here. You ate all the melon? Come on,
get out.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Look. I mean I was looking forward to that Casaba
and you ate it now. Mad It is time for
the dead guy. Birthday of the day before we get
to the NFL action.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
It is and a big happy would have been one
hundred and fourth to Gail Halverson, the Berlin candy bomber,
lived to be one hundred and one, So wait to
go there. Gail born in Salt Lake City, grew up
on small farms, moved around a little bit Idaho, a
(28:03):
little bit of Utah. He was an aggie like Chuck E.
Keaton private pilot license and Merlin olsen Ness private pilot
license in forty one under the Civilian pilot training program.
He then joined the Civilian Air Patrol and then the
(28:23):
United States Air Force in nineteen forty two, in the
midst of WW two, Greatest Generation sent to the UK
at twenty two years old, South Atlantic Theater after that,
but his biggest impact came after the war, during the
Berlin Airlift, one of the crazier things to come out
of World War Two. You got a free West Germany
with Frankfurt, Stuttgart and Cologne and Dusseldorf. And then you
(28:48):
got communist East Germany with Leipzig, Dresden and freaking Berlin
which is right there near Poland waste commedy Germany. But
you got West Berlin, free Western influence, glorious in the
middle of this communist nightmare. Then they tried like hell
to shut it down, to swallow it up, but they
(29:09):
couldn't because the guys like Lieutenant Halverson and his role
in the Berlin Airlift, flying one of the many Sea
fifty four cargo planes ferrying supplies into the starving city
that they were trying to choke off of civilization. Full
Luftwaft during its infancy, he would fly first to Berlin
and then deeper into Soviet controlled areas. One day he
(29:31):
is at Tempelhoff, the main landing site for the airlift. Quote.
I met about thirty children at the barbed wire fence
that protected Templehoff's huge area. They were excited to see
me and told me, when the weather gets so bad
that you can't land, don't worry about us. We can
get by on a little food, but if we lose
(29:54):
our freedom, we may never get it back. Kids said
that to him.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Touched.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
Halverson reached into his pocket took out two sticks a
gum to give to the kids instead of you know,
a scrum, and one of them takes it and shoves
it in his mouth. They broke him up into little
pieces and shared it equally. The ones who did not
get any gum sniffed the wrappers. Oh yes, obviously Gaale
has moved, He says, Tomorrow I empire the sun, right,
(30:23):
I mean full? Oh, come on, I'll have enough gum
for all of you. He would drop it out of
his plane, and he told him I will wiggle my
wings so you'll know it's me, something he had done
for his parents when he first got his pilot's license
in forty one. That night Halverson, his co pilot, his
engineer pooled their candy rations for the next day's drop.
It's a little heavy, so to ensure that no children
(30:45):
were hurt getting bunked in the head by a package,
he made three parachutes out of handkerchiefs and dropped the
rations to the kids. They would make these drops once
a week for three weeks. Each week the group of
children significantly. Word reached his commanding office. They got fatter,
there were kids, more kids.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Lieutenant General William Turner ordered it expanded, and he called
it Operation Little Victuals, which began on September twenty second,
nineteen forty eight. Support grew quickly. The whole squadron was
doing drops. News reached the United States. Children candy makers
from all over the US began contributing within two months.
By November, Halverson could no longer keep up with the
amount of candy and handkerchiefs being sent from across America.
(31:28):
Became a national project. The National Confectioners Association prepped the candy,
tied the handkerchiefs. Pilots were dropping candy every single day.
The American candy bombers were an effect from forty eight
September forty eight to May of forty nine. It is
estimated they dropped twenty three tons of candy from two
(31:49):
hundred and fifty thousand parachutes. Came back, got married, returned
and worked in West Germany until seventy four. Moved back
to Provo, where he became the dean of student life
at by You. Oh yeah, now listen, you hit the piano,
you dirty people?
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Did he soak?
Speaker 3 (32:07):
You can't have the sex, but you can suck. I'm
a dean of studio. How about supplanting your sexual desires
with some chock? What do you say, son, You wouldn't
be the first. Yeah. Died in two thousand and two
at one hundred and one years old.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Oh what a story. Not not quite a John Lacari
West East Berlin sort of thing.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
But hey, you know, hey, little bittles and these children
told me we might be hungry tomorrow, but we must
keep our freedom.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
Oh freedom is what's most important.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
Said, and it's so touched me. Yeah, Gail.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
Seventy six years old. Today we got a Jamaican news.
It's Jamaica news. Rostin's not for today. We celebrated Jamaican
man is quite old, most of his colleagues had died
and rest homes broken. David John Crooks was the birth
name aka Dave Barker, no relation to former Patterson Muddy guests,
(33:16):
the Great Bob Barker who came on twice, multi multi appearances, multaime.
How many years of that deal? Don Malta, yet another
Jamaican musician that nobody cares about been met. Dave Barker
left for England with a grandma and three uncles at
(33:37):
five years old because he was essentially abandoned by his
parents and Jamaica who left the United States. Did the
uncles like him where they nice?
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Know?
Speaker 2 (33:46):
They beat him? The uncles beat him, and so did
the mean British teachers, and because of that he developed
a stammer. But he overcame it as a teen through singing.
Inspired Like so many young Caribbean people from the American
radio as, he did make his way back back back
(34:08):
to Jamaica, mostly because of the beatings.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Why'ch you come back? Yeah? Pretty much? The beatings.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
Yeah, twas the way that beats me.
Speaker 3 (34:20):
You don't say.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
Uh. Listen to James Brown and Otis Redding got inspired.
Otis loves us that's Otis Day.
Speaker 3 (34:32):
Hey Otis loves us.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
Welcome to the destined Ly Club. The group that he
formed with a guy named Winston Riley and Bruce Ruffin
has become kind of a cult following group that people
will going to dig up a lot of the recordings.
They were called the Techniques, and he had a duo
with a guy named Glenn Brown, the rhythm master. They
were called Glenn and Dave. As a solo guy in Jamaica,
(34:58):
he became a regular votocalist in Lee Scratch Perry's studio,
working with the Whalers and Bob Marley. A real high
tenor voice that he could do, and he could also
go low too. I fit with a lot of the
stuff that Lee Scratch Perry was doing. But he's best
known for the song double Barrel Rhythm and song number
one in the UK. He did it with a guy
(35:19):
named Ansel Collins. It's a very recognizable rhythm that you
could look up and listen to if you want. That
was his number one song. Not much success after that.
He tried Soul to Know, not much success, continue to
record Jamaican music. He's seventy six down and settled in England.
(35:44):
You still have a stammer. No, no, he overcame the
stammer and the beatings. Well, once the beating stopped, I
guess the stammer kind of dissipated, and then you have
Starnham in Jamaica. There's a lot of big ass there,
so you feel better about yourself.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
Certainly an ass on your face not going to stammer
awful hard, Yeah it was.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
We are the ass on the face of AM radio
and we are looking forward to tomorrow. Show starts at
two flex Alert all week law because the Dodgers have
forced the Game five scam Lives to fight again. Yeah,
Matt was right to stick it to Dan Patrick.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
Sucks to be you, Dan that you're.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Pretty upset about losing that la that audience.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
We get scammed going through November.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
Gots cotton love crossfire. Howre you like that? Dan through November? Huh?
Speaker 3 (36:43):
All the way through November? Damn forever? Sweetheart. You don't
have to go to state school.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
Can we just enjoy the one victory?
Speaker 3 (36:54):
You know?
Speaker 2 (36:54):
This is this is why we end up at the
Christmas party every year, because they win one game and
we start talking about November. Let's go, we become white left.
We're gonna be gone to November. Dan, all right, we'll
be back with more great sports talk tomorrow. Go Dodgers,

Speaker 3 (00:43):
In that kind of inspired me too.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Yeah, you know, like you know, we got a really
good uh really good team.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
They did a great job in the summer.
Speaker 2 (00:51):

It's up to our boss. But you could listen to
the Dodgers Padres game tomorrow on the iHeartRadio app Dodgers
on decade four, first pitch eight after five. It is
powered by Zenhi Sushi Fast Fresh, it.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Easy, It's got for your final art. Fun fact, it's
fun and effect.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
It's the yellower three facts.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Fun fact.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
The reason we say redhead, and understand this precedes firecrotch,
so that had not been around yet. That's a little
bit more of a recent development. The reason we say
redhead instead of orange head for hair color is because
the English did not differentiate between red and orange until
the fifteen forties. They're too stupid and redhead had been
(02:28):
coined long before that.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Yeah, that's why you lost to Greece and the u
Ain for champions. Yeah, two to one, you toothless Limeies
so give us back our statues. British Museum translucent losers.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
You're not getting those back, Thiebes poachers.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
All right, it's time for the quick hits. Everybody, come
to MS quick hits. Come make it quick, y'all. Oh yeah,
Game five of the NLDS tomorrow, n my biggest game
in the history of the game. First pitch, Dodger Stadium,
five oh eight. Winner gets a long poots to the
face and the.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Winner gets a long poots to the face. Oh yeah,
I mean I get for us poll smokers over here,
it's reward reward. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
It's a reward for your fightings. It's a reward for
your fighting experience.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Smoking that pole.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
NLCS versus the Mets, Mets, Mets, and that would make
Vic even more insufferable. The Dodgers haven't won a postseason
series at Dodger Stadium in front of a crowd since
the twenty thirteen NLDS against the Braves, not counting that
one game wild card in twenty twenty one. Their last
last six series wins, including twenty twenty, of course, have
(03:49):
all come on the road.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
That little nugget courtesy of Tim Kates.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
How about that how about that the roof at Trumpic
Cannafield blew off at the home of the Tampa Bay Rays,
severely damaged clean off due to the high winds from
Hurricane Milton. Terrible, terrible scene out there. The Tampa Bay
Buccaneers said that while surveys are being conducted, Old Raymond
James Stadium, in their practice facility only suffered cosmetic damage.
(04:15):
Even the cannons remained Phalliccaneers on the boat Buccaneers.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Imagine if that boat ended up in somebody's front yard
like some of the other ones. Buccaneers be unfortunate, it would.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
The Chargers are two and two coming off of bye week.
They somebody tried to speak three losses into existence, but
it hasn't happened yet.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
It's not happened.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Maybe, but they're going to be in Denver this Sunday
to face Bonix from Oregon and Auburn and the Broncos
listen on Alt ninety eight to seven dog or Matt mddy,
smith shennon Fair and Daniel Jeremiah on the call. Triumphant
return after a bye week and the Rams are on
a bye week. I believe there is the Lakers much
(05:06):
of the chagrine of Lebron James are in Milwaukee later
to take on the Milwaukee Box. Yeah, he did not want.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
To fly out there doing acquisations.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
He did not want to be a professional athlete.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
One game. We're flying in Milwaukee for one game, Yes,
on a private charter, staying in a five star hotel.
You are flying in Milwaukee for one game because Crypto
is under construction.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
With the team that you forced to draft your son.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Yes, you can take the trip with your son. Oh,
maybe he's super uncomfortable because that's where this secret family
is and it's going to be really off court on
the first road trip with his son, Like, hey, this
is the first time we're hitting the road.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Milwaukee's an interesting choice. Here's my secret family. Brilliant place
to hide a woman. Right, here's JJ Reddick reiterating the
whole thing yesterday.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
It's a long way to go for a preseason game.
Just just thought, so on this.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Not an ideal preseason for US.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Okay, well, you know Lebron doesn't like it, so of
course I don't either.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
God, what a bunch of a holes, Like, do they
there's hurricanes? Do they know how they're coming off?
Speaker 3 (06:14):
You're the head coach. You say, well, we play the
game that's on the schedule.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Like on the schedule, people running for their lives and
like clinging to the sides of mountains and Lebron's complaining
about that stuff.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
And I'm a sound to see m a secret family
so soon.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Put your face back in your Malcolm X book. And
that's not true.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
But for him it probably becomes very, very frustrating to
the position as you have the control without actually having.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
The If you have the control, control, they drafted his son,
who sucks his son, Give me back my son, they
drafted him.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
The Clippers preseason continues tomorrow in Seattle versus the Portland Trailblazers.
We might become intimately involved with the Clippers preseason if
the Dodgers can't win on Friday, cokenos and beating beats.
The NBA is exploring the play games in China gag
because why not. They do a great job. The league
last played preseason game in the country back at twenty nineteen.
(07:20):
Instead of having like an old lady dance crew, they're
gonna have the Wigers come out and do a dance.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
What about awigas You're gonna lecture me. You're gonna lecture
me on politics exactly, and something you don't like in
the civil process when you don't care about the wigers.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Adam Silver said, I don't care about the wiggers. I
think we will bring back games to China. At some point,
China's government took us off the air for a period
of time.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Thanks Darryl Mory.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
We accepted that we stood by our values well, and
I stood by Hong Kong. Anybody in our league has
the right to speak out on political matters.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Okay, So why don't you, Lebron huh, lecture me with
you your slogan on the back of a warm up shirt.
But you don't care about it, we guys.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Well, Lebron wants to have control over political issues, but
he doesn't have control, even though people perceive that he
does have got that control.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
You know how frustrating that is for him, very that
everybody thinks he has control but he doesn't. And the
reality of it is, this is deep, that's not true.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
God, what an idiot.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
But for him it probably becomes very very frustrating to
the position as you have the control without actually having
the control.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
We'll stick your face in Adell's Fish and Chips. You
blow hard. USC is three and two seasons over. They
lost at Minnesota. Came I can't recover from losing to
PJ Flex.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
Now what I heard on a Saturday podcast, they would
probably get a bunch of sponsors.
Speaker 5 (08:43):
You know, this idea just popped into my head.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Oh yeah, here it is.
Speaker 5 (08:46):
I'm always looking for new podcasts. Scond Why shouldn't I
do a Saturday podcast on USC football? You know, make
it about twenty weeks, talk about all their victories, pac
ten titles with Lincoln Riley recruiting five star.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Commitments, smoking a cigar. Sounds like he's smokes.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Easy to find a sponsor.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
They line up love, would they?
Speaker 5 (09:08):
I love recruiting elite talent?
Speaker 3 (09:11):
Yeah, they line up do it every week.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Even if they beat Penn State, who cares. Saturday at
the Coliseum, they're a four point underdog. They lost to Minnesota,
and that's who UCLA plays. They host PJ. Fleck and Minnesota.
Minnesota's three and three. They got to five hundred by
beating u R three. Ucla is one and four and
if you say anything bad about him and they beat
you gotta be bad.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
It's gonna be bad tennis, Matt, Yeah, this is a bummer.
Raffi Nadal one of the all time great tennis players,
not only an exceptional champion, but fun to watch play
the sport. He is retiring. He has done end of
the year thirty eight oh Rafao, first man in history
to win twenty two Brand Slam trophies. It's started by
(09:56):
dominating the French Open. Some said he was nothing but
a master of the clay, and then he went on
to dominate the sport. His final event will be Davis
Cup November, representing his home country of Espanya.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Viva Spanya. But hey, be nice of the tourists out there.
All right, We will have more great sports talk as
the show continues. We've got three things Thursday, You're dead
and a live guy birthday other day, and then we'll
get to the NFL game. Thank you for listening, everybody.
(10:36):
The Petrosen Money Show podcastable on the iHeartRadio app for
your smartphone. Tonight, we got forty nine ers at Seahawks.
What would a loss be for Brock Purty? That's George
Clooney from the movie Leatherheads or Squidward podcast our show
(10:57):
on the iHeartRadio app always there and we sure appreciate it.
You could stream it live as well. The Dodgers prevailed
in San Diego. They escaped the angry people of Pacific
Beach all the way up the five North that will
have a game tomorrow, a pivotal game five tomorrow, Morocco Casino,
(11:18):
Dodgers on deck with Cats from four to five, and
then gloriously we will get started. But right now it's
time for three things Thursday on three thingsters.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Well, as the Dodgers have forced a game five or
three things Thursday will be Dodger related. So I will
tick off three things here at the start, and then
we can dig into it as we have the previous
two and a half hours of our flex Alert show
that will be flexed as you said again back to
two o'clock courtesy of the Dodgers' victory in San Diego.
(11:59):
Well open. Our interpretation is the first thing, which is
claiming the Padre fans are annoying as all get out
front runners, that when they are winning, they are ubiquitous,
they are omnipresent. You cannot escape them. When the Padres
are winning. When they lose, they are invisible. They have
(12:21):
disappeared completely off the face of the earth. There is
not even a cricket chirp like a see an enemy exactly.
And turns out, and again we continue to tip our
cap to David Vess because he's so damn good at
what he does, our intrepid Dodger reporter, it's because the
team is front runners. When they blow home runs out
(12:42):
of the park early, when they score early, the team
starts freaking out and they flex and they dance, and
they strut and they do their hops, and they do
their flexes and they do their posine and Tatis does
his little skip before third base, and the crowd feeds
off that and it becomes reretibly energetic. Hard to overcome
(13:03):
atmosphere at Petco Park, and to some degree even when
they're in opposing parks, they just have this energy they
carry with them. And it's something Dave Roberts talked about.
But it turns out, if you score the first few runs,
it he's completely gone. It has disappeared. There is and
I understand you're not gonna celebrate nothing, but.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Are you are you mean like sleepy hollow, Like once
you cross that bridge, my friend, the curse is gone,
exactly right, it's powers end.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Dave said yesterday score Well, he said it before the
Walker Bueler game. They gotta score the double averst and
then Walker's gotta put up a zero. And he's someone
that has been at Petco Park, god knows how many times,
probably sniffing one hundred by now, and he knows and
that's exactly what this is. That's the first thing. Second thing,
(13:50):
I think it is clear, and it is something that
we discussed in game two, how perhaps that game could
have gone and Mookie's postseason could have gone so differently
had the Dodger fans been knowledgeable accepted their response.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
You're not going to be able to prove that. Man.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
You're not going to be able to say, right, hey,
you and the Alex Vessia jersey, you don't get to
throw the ball back on the field and cause an
issue because you're an idiot.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
It was not an ideal situation.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
MOOKI wants to be wanted. He wants you to want him.
He needs you to need him.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Are you saying he wants to shunt up his old
brown shoes, yes, and put on a brand new shirt.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
He'd love for you to love him. I think that
is clear that there are some athletes that do not
give a good g damn what people say, what people write,
what's going on on social media. They are few and
far between. There aren't many of them. But Mooki is
not one of them. Moki does care, and Muki was
(14:56):
affected by all the negativity. He's affected by people talking
of how he's not a real superstar, how he did
not deserve the three hundred and sixty five million dollar contracts.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Sometimes you have to tell Mookie Bets that he's.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Moogie Bets exact. And that's again David Vasse with the
salient point, Dave, that Mookie needs to be nurtured. Mookie
needs to be told, hey, you're great. People like you, Okay,
people like you. And all it took was that one
(15:29):
home run the other night, even in a loss, and
then another single and he's on base for the Grand Slam.
And we played it yesterday, and yes, there was a
bit of a negative tilt on our position regarding Moki
and how he addressed the media. Like me, we lost
six to five, But you know those couple hitch you
saw him right.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Well, I'm always I'm always I'm not gonna let you
just own that alone. I'm always good for your joining
on in the negativity.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
So now you look down and Mookie's got a higher
batting everage than ol Tani in the NLD and uh.
And finally, nobody picked the Dodgers to win this game.
We discussed that they were not only the biggest underdog
on the board of all four games being plubed, all
eight teams playing yesterday, nobody was plus odds on the
(16:16):
money line except the Dodgers. And it was a monster
plus one point thirty to win that game. And a
lot of that goes to not necessarily the owner proprietor,
but a man who at least has a stake in ownership.
How large. I don't know of Red stitch Y and
(16:37):
what he was able to put together, and I would
assume power struggle between him and rich Arelia. That's exactly
right this loss. As we dig into it, Pee is
is on Mike Shild the shill. We questioned, it really
fair to call him that he works for the put
love it he's a shill? Well, he's not a SHI employee.
Is their manager for the guy? Literally his job, We
(17:01):
questioned starting cease on short rest a guy when asked
that I've never done it before.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Now, what you did say was gonna happen did not happen.
It may it did not happen, Matt, and I'm not
gonna let you take credit for it. There was no
juice in that squeeze. Yeah, you said they were gonna
blow the ball right through his chest, there was gonna
be a hole in his chest, so you could see
the center field through his chest. And that did not happen.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
You didn't know that it happened figuratively perhaps, all right.
I said that Otani in the first at bat would
hit a ball so hard it would blow a hole
straight through the chest of Dylan Cease, that we would
be able to see second base from them. If it
did not, risk reward was way out of whack. Cease
gets shelled by the Dodgers in Game one. He gives
(17:42):
up five runs in three innings, and now he offers
up just five outs en route to again helping Mookie,
who wants to be wanted, who needs to be needed
and would love for us to love him, And he
continue to get right three runs, five outs and as
(18:04):
everyone said, was desperately needed. Let the Dodgers play with
a lead, put up zeros early, score some runs and
ride that brilliant bullpen that has been nails the last
couple months to a game for a victory. Now it worked,
it can't work long term.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
You mean every game can't be a bullpen game.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
It turns out, I don't think so. I think that's
gonna be a little bit tough for guys that while
it is certainly a salary that many of us would
love to have in our daily lives, in terms of baseball, though,
your bullpen arms that are making a couple to seven
eight million on the high end to ten twelve million
(18:44):
on the real high end, they're like, yeah, yeah, that's
sending me out there every day. Sorry, I'm gonna blow
out my arm on a one year deal because this
is the only way.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Hey, hey, in games, Hey, bullpen guys, didn't I see
you crying? I didn't. I didn't not see you crying?
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Oh and again to continue to puff at a chest. Uh.
Dave Roberts asking for MLB to make this a seven
game series. I brought this up with Jerry Hairston, and
I got brud. That's the only reason why I'm using
the word I instead of we, because I was the
one that got Brood to death. Bruh, don't care, Bruh. Whatever, Broh,
(19:24):
five games, seven games, you're gonna have to see him
bro so, bruh, bring it on, bruh. But he missed
the point, not that you're afraid of the Padres. That
wasn't the point, but the matchup screams, which is why
I found it interesting that Dave began complaining about the
matchup of the divisional series that he would rather have
it be seven games because you are not outlasting the
Padres in a seven game series? Do you do not
(19:46):
have the starting pitching?
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Can they outlast anybody in a seven game series? Now
going forward with their pitching.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Not gonna be easy. They're gonna get Yeah, the opponent's
gonna get two starts. That's like, that's that's why it
was interesting that he brought it up. Now, like, you know,
if only these things were seven games in the divisional series. Yeah,
I get that, but in this particular situation where you
have no starters and your opponent is going to get
two starts a piece for their one and two starter.
(20:14):
Michael King, you Darvish in the five gamer you can
play this bullpen thing and get away with it. Uh,
the in a five game series. The Padres Mike, He's a.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Ship, that's all he is.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Is going to make the mistake of saying, well, I'm
not gonna pitch Cease on Friday, so I'm gonna use
him tonight because he's not gonna pitch until game two
anyway of the CS that doesn't start till Monday, so
let's go ahead and get him out there. Bad decision.
You would not have used him otherwise, knowing all along
it was going to be Darvish in game five. This
is seven game series. No, you're you're pitching. You're you're
(20:48):
not pitching Dylan Ceas on three days rest for the
first time in his career and in game five. I
know what I said earlier. You know you can't allow
this thing to go to a game, you, Darvish. Anything
can happen, one thing to be dominant in game two.
But now Padres backs against the wall, Dodgers backs against
the wall, both back against the wall? Is that what
(21:11):
you Darvish does best? Wow, did a little digging around.
He is pitched in three games when his team has
faced elimination. Would you care to guess what his record
is in those three games. Well, I know what it
is in one of them, exactly right, Zero and three. Well,
there you go, elimination games zero and three. Of course
(21:32):
we all know Game seven of the twenty seventeen World
Series at Dodger Stadium one and two thirds, four earned runs.
Uh game o, Rich Hill, Dick Mountain, cannot contain himself
on the railing, get them out, scroll the damn tall.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
It would much like the Apollo death.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
And that's what the Dodgers suffered, an Apollo creed like death,
terrible following a James Brown and an Uncle Sam outfit
like pre ceremony and celebration.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Meru.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Now, I will say, because some people are probably gonna
point it out, it can be a bit misleading save
the Dodgers. Where he did melt down and got sheld
in that inning and two third he did pitch well
for the Cubs, did pitch well for the Padres in
those elimination games, but still took the losses. Okay, but
he still took the losses.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Well, then here'd be a little bit missing zero three.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
That is his record zero and three. So the big
question for the Dodgers now is what is their best approach.
Is it Yamamoto who gave up three in the first day.
We're showing his face last night, so it feels like
it could be. He didn't look like you wanted any
part of it. Is it Flarity who gave up three
in the first two innings? I'll fightch you right now.
(22:44):
Let's call, let's take it outside. Is it Flarity who
gave up three in the first two innings? Or with
a day off, do you go back to the bullpen
in an elimination contest where you shut out the padres
already and proved if we can just get some offense,
if we can make this thing work. As Nomar told us,
ten hits five runs win Dodgers last night, twelve hits
(23:06):
eight runs a win. Wiggle room in there for the
pitchers to get after it and not be too stressed
out in the late innings. And hey, of all the guys,
of all the guys, how about landin neck?
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Huh?
Speaker 3 (23:19):
How about our guy landing neck being thrown out there
on the mound?
Speaker 2 (23:23):
He made it in there. I was glad, you know,
because I didn't want us to be misleading.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
Asked to get the final three outs and preserve the
shutout and man just super cool as though nothing affects him,
gets the first hit, gives up the first hit, and
then just deal sping bang boom, gets out of the
inning eight nothing. Dodgers for all the incoming Dave Roberts takes,
and I do think some of it is warranted. DV
(23:50):
again to tip my cap to him, made a great
point yesterday when he said, after being asked why the
hell would they start Miguel Rojas, that I can't answer,
but it has He's been corrected, and yes, correct your mistakes,
right your wrongs. Edmond at short, Kik at third. It
paid off, keyk going two for four, score to run,
(24:12):
Edmund one for four with a Ribby played some damn
good defensive shortstop. Way to go, correct your mistakes, lean
into him. Freddy's a hell of a guy and he's
had a hell of a tough year. But it is
clear the ankle is not gonna get better anytime soon,
and perhaps this is the approach you'll have to take.
(24:32):
In Game five as well, the Mets have advanced New
York awaits. The Yankees are now up to one. Baseball
is patting themselves on the back thanks to the Dodgers
forcing a pivotal Game five, dreaming of a Benino what
was the other guy's name? Started with an E right
(24:53):
Evans setting up another Evans and Benino versus Petros and
Money showdown as we'd luck with that as we crossed
the flyover States and really give each other the business
about who's gonna win the series, the Mets or the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Well, we'll get you ready tomorrow. It all starts at
two two to four.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
I did not I didn't not didn't not see you crying.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Petro Si Money Show wants you to want the Dodgers
to win Game five so we can make more money
and scam can continue, and we'll be back with your
dead and live guy birthday of the day before the
big NFL game tonight, Thursday Night Football is coming up.
(25:37):
But the Dodgers, Dodger fans, and super Dodgers Sayer, the
voice of the Bolts.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
Seem it Outmenen Mats seemed me and Farhan, We're a
packaged deal moving forward.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
They're not even gonna recognize you when you get show
up at the Charger game this weekend, Matt.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
Like that's a dude. We used to see you painted
his face like a bay. That was very I love
that guy.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
That guy was so cool.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
He's very nice, but just you couldn't look at him.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Well you would say that his entrance was not seamless.
We're happy to be with you. Big football game coming up,
But the truth is everybody's basking in the glory of
the great victory last night, the Dodgers punching the padres
Pinata inside out and forcing a game five to face
(26:29):
the curvy sword of you, Darvish. And we are going
to be there from two to four tomorrow at Dodger Stadium.
Before we are yard of poulted into Illsion.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Heights, Jeff, we have the boot. The boot will be
sitting next to our car. If that car is not
out of the parking lot by four fifteen pm, they're
gonna boot us and freaking car apult it onto the
one ten freeway. So keep your head on a swivel.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Peek. Yeah, it's not Matt's fault, you know, Matt Skinny,
but I take up a lot and it's just too much,
am radio guy, to be at Tocher Stadium for such
a big game, the game five, the pivotal Game five.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
So we will Matt's got a problem with grazing. Every
time I look over, he's grazing. Yeah, he's eating of salad.
He's eating a half sandwich. Now he's got a hot dog. Oh,
what do you know? He's taking the Melissa's nuts. Now
he's eating the apricots, and he's got his fingers in
the fruit.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
He just has just nervous energy. Boss. It's not you know,
he's not trying to get after anybody. You know, I
don't mean no harm.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
Get out of here. You ate all the melon? Come on,
get out.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Look. I mean I was looking forward to that Casaba
and you ate it now. Mad It is time for
the dead guy. Birthday of the day before we get
to the NFL action.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
It is and a big happy would have been one
hundred and fourth to Gail Halverson, the Berlin candy bomber,
lived to be one hundred and one, So wait to
go there. Gail born in Salt Lake City, grew up
on small farms, moved around a little bit Idaho, a
(28:03):
little bit of Utah. He was an aggie like Chuck E.
Keaton private pilot license and Merlin olsen Ness private pilot
license in forty one under the Civilian pilot training program.
He then joined the Civilian Air Patrol and then the
(28:23):
United States Air Force in nineteen forty two, in the
midst of WW two, Greatest Generation sent to the UK
at twenty two years old, South Atlantic Theater after that,
but his biggest impact came after the war, during the
Berlin Airlift, one of the crazier things to come out
of World War Two. You got a free West Germany
with Frankfurt, Stuttgart and Cologne and Dusseldorf. And then you
(28:48):
got communist East Germany with Leipzig, Dresden and freaking Berlin
which is right there near Poland waste commedy Germany. But
you got West Berlin, free Western influence, glorious in the
middle of this communist nightmare. Then they tried like hell
to shut it down, to swallow it up, but they
(29:09):
couldn't because the guys like Lieutenant Halverson and his role
in the Berlin Airlift, flying one of the many Sea
fifty four cargo planes ferrying supplies into the starving city
that they were trying to choke off of civilization. Full
Luftwaft during its infancy, he would fly first to Berlin
and then deeper into Soviet controlled areas. One day he
(29:31):
is at Tempelhoff, the main landing site for the airlift. Quote.
I met about thirty children at the barbed wire fence
that protected Templehoff's huge area. They were excited to see
me and told me, when the weather gets so bad
that you can't land, don't worry about us. We can
get by on a little food, but if we lose
(29:54):
our freedom, we may never get it back. Kids said
that to him.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Touched.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
Halverson reached into his pocket took out two sticks a
gum to give to the kids instead of you know,
a scrum, and one of them takes it and shoves
it in his mouth. They broke him up into little
pieces and shared it equally. The ones who did not
get any gum sniffed the wrappers. Oh yes, obviously Gaale
has moved, He says, Tomorrow I empire the sun, right,
(30:23):
I mean full? Oh, come on, I'll have enough gum
for all of you. He would drop it out of
his plane, and he told him I will wiggle my
wings so you'll know it's me, something he had done
for his parents when he first got his pilot's license
in forty one. That night Halverson, his co pilot, his
engineer pooled their candy rations for the next day's drop.
It's a little heavy, so to ensure that no children
(30:45):
were hurt getting bunked in the head by a package,
he made three parachutes out of handkerchiefs and dropped the
rations to the kids. They would make these drops once
a week for three weeks. Each week the group of
children significantly. Word reached his commanding office. They got fatter,
there were kids, more kids.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Lieutenant General William Turner ordered it expanded, and he called
it Operation Little Victuals, which began on September twenty second,
nineteen forty eight. Support grew quickly. The whole squadron was
doing drops. News reached the United States. Children candy makers
from all over the US began contributing within two months.
By November, Halverson could no longer keep up with the
amount of candy and handkerchiefs being sent from across America.
(31:28):
Became a national project. The National Confectioners Association prepped the candy,
tied the handkerchiefs. Pilots were dropping candy every single day.
The American candy bombers were an effect from forty eight
September forty eight to May of forty nine. It is
estimated they dropped twenty three tons of candy from two
(31:49):
hundred and fifty thousand parachutes. Came back, got married, returned
and worked in West Germany until seventy four. Moved back
to Provo, where he became the dean of student life
at by You. Oh yeah, now listen, you hit the piano,
you dirty people?
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Did he soak?
Speaker 3 (32:07):
You can't have the sex, but you can suck. I'm
a dean of studio. How about supplanting your sexual desires
with some chock? What do you say, son, You wouldn't
be the first. Yeah. Died in two thousand and two
at one hundred and one years old.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Oh what a story. Not not quite a John Lacari
West East Berlin sort of thing.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
But hey, you know, hey, little bittles and these children
told me we might be hungry tomorrow, but we must
keep our freedom.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
Oh freedom is what's most important.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
Said, and it's so touched me. Yeah, Gail.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
Seventy six years old. Today we got a Jamaican news.
It's Jamaica news. Rostin's not for today. We celebrated Jamaican
man is quite old, most of his colleagues had died
and rest homes broken. David John Crooks was the birth
name aka Dave Barker, no relation to former Patterson Muddy guests,
(33:16):
the Great Bob Barker who came on twice, multi multi appearances, multaime.
How many years of that deal? Don Malta, yet another
Jamaican musician that nobody cares about been met. Dave Barker
left for England with a grandma and three uncles at
(33:37):
five years old because he was essentially abandoned by his
parents and Jamaica who left the United States. Did the
uncles like him where they nice?
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Know?
Speaker 2 (33:46):
They beat him? The uncles beat him, and so did
the mean British teachers, and because of that he developed
a stammer. But he overcame it as a teen through singing.
Inspired Like so many young Caribbean people from the American
radio as, he did make his way back back back
(34:08):
to Jamaica, mostly because of the beatings.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Why'ch you come back? Yeah? Pretty much? The beatings.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
Yeah, twas the way that beats me.
Speaker 3 (34:20):
You don't say.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
Uh. Listen to James Brown and Otis Redding got inspired.
Otis loves us that's Otis Day.
Speaker 3 (34:32):
Hey Otis loves us.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
Welcome to the destined Ly Club. The group that he
formed with a guy named Winston Riley and Bruce Ruffin
has become kind of a cult following group that people
will going to dig up a lot of the recordings.
They were called the Techniques, and he had a duo
with a guy named Glenn Brown, the rhythm master. They
were called Glenn and Dave. As a solo guy in Jamaica,
(34:58):
he became a regular votocalist in Lee Scratch Perry's studio,
working with the Whalers and Bob Marley. A real high
tenor voice that he could do, and he could also
go low too. I fit with a lot of the
stuff that Lee Scratch Perry was doing. But he's best
known for the song double Barrel Rhythm and song number
one in the UK. He did it with a guy
(35:19):
named Ansel Collins. It's a very recognizable rhythm that you
could look up and listen to if you want. That
was his number one song. Not much success after that.
He tried Soul to Know, not much success, continue to
record Jamaican music. He's seventy six down and settled in England.
(35:44):
You still have a stammer. No, no, he overcame the
stammer and the beatings. Well, once the beating stopped, I
guess the stammer kind of dissipated, and then you have
Starnham in Jamaica. There's a lot of big ass there,
so you feel better about yourself.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
Certainly an ass on your face not going to stammer
awful hard, Yeah it was.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
We are the ass on the face of AM radio
and we are looking forward to tomorrow. Show starts at
two flex Alert all week law because the Dodgers have
forced the Game five scam Lives to fight again. Yeah,
Matt was right to stick it to Dan Patrick.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
Sucks to be you, Dan that you're.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Pretty upset about losing that la that audience.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
We get scammed going through November.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
Gots cotton love crossfire. Howre you like that? Dan through November? Huh?
Speaker 3 (36:43):
All the way through November? Damn forever? Sweetheart. You don't
have to go to state school.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
Can we just enjoy the one victory?
Speaker 3 (36:54):
You know?
Speaker 2 (36:54):
This is this is why we end up at the
Christmas party every year, because they win one game and
we start talking about November. Let's go, we become white left.
We're gonna be gone to November. Dan, all right, we'll
be back with more great sports talk tomorrow. Go Dodgers,
good luck, and enjoy the football game.
