As for the remainder of Three Things Thursday, we focus
on what has been the central story surrounding our city.

Speaker 3 (03:23):
Don't bring it up. It makes me so mad and earth.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
Shattering acquisition that has led to strife, discord and infighting.
Hey guys, let's keep the dirty laundry off the air,
can we? I'm trying.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
It's hard.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
It is because we want to attack somebody that we
don't like in town. Means the show got to attack
each other. We can attack that show if they're attacking
each other. Because you've opened that door, you started the attack.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
We got a right to pick a little fight. That's right.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
So much for my question to James Worthy yesterday, it
was like, hey, James Man, te me if you agree with this,
what do you think of this? Man, I've been talking
about a big I think they mean more shooting man,
small ball, Yeah, surround these guys, the more shooters, just
the brilliance division. And that is what you said, Matt.
But you know ball, yeah don't. I sure do know
the round ball.

Speaker 3 (04:09):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Their last asset available, their last dying asset breath for
the Lakers this season and really for the immediate future,
was for a big and in order to get that
big they had to send out shooting. So I guess
that kind of answers my question about what would they
value more? What should they value more shooting.

Speaker 3 (04:29):
Or big.

Speaker 5 (04:31):
Upset Some people in the midday is uh. They asked
Luka Doncic about that guy like, hey, you want this kide.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
You want this Mark Williams. Guy, hold on, let me
take a swig of vodka.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
Let me blow out much smoke like dragon.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Let me itch fold in my belly, Mark Williams, I like, go,
Mike deal. Mark Williams, U it's a big git. It's
a roll of the dice. He's got health issues. He
played forty three games his rookie season. He played nineteen
games last year with a serious back injury, and this

(05:12):
year he has only played twenty two so if you
can do the math at home, that would be two
games more than one full season. Over the course of
two and a half years, eighty four played out of
a possible two hundred to two. Not ideal, but when
he does play, he's pretty good. Former lottery picked fifteenth overalls.

(05:35):
The swap for Dalton connect is even on that front.
But the Lakers also had to surrender an unprotected one
in the twenty thirty one draft, and this deal was
only made because our man, Nicole Nicole did not ask
for those assets.

Speaker 5 (05:51):
Miko Harrison, Yes, Uncle Nicole, He's under fire.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Uncle Nico is under serious fire now. Had he been
able to acquire Kevin Durant would have quelled some of
the masses outside of American Airlines Arena. But instead the
funeral contowns.

Speaker 3 (06:05):
Got Uncle Nichol's hunkered down and as he's taking a heavy.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
Fire exactly right, he's on that Evangeline elevator straight down
or Evangelian, whatever the hell that anime was called. Very
easily they could have asked for that and they would
have got it. Lakers aren't passing on Luca because of
a twenty thirty one first round pick. Yet somehow they
were able to hold on to this selection six years
in their future, when Luca will still be in his

(06:29):
prime thirty one years old, we assume, and the Hornets decided,
you know what, we're gonna gamble that he will be
fact drunk and vapor by then, I guess, and the
concerns that the Mavericks reportedly had would be valid. It's
pretty hefty price to pay for a guy that has
been injured this much early in his career, but it

(06:49):
speaks likely to the asking price for the guy they
really wanted and the guy we really wanted because he's
a white guy. Walker Kessler, the big whitey out there
in Utah, would have been a perfect fit. And really,
I think it's important to remember when people said, well
the asking price for Walter Kessler was just for Walker
Kessler was too high, Well, yeah, he's a viable NBA

(07:13):
basketball player in Utah and he's white, so of course
there's gonna be a premium added. When you can run
up and down the court in a city like Salt
Lake City and you're white, they're gonna probably ask for
an extra one or an extra asset, and I would
assume the Lakers offered the exact same package they did

(07:33):
the Hornets for Kessler and they were declining. Really, there's
no reason for a young jazz team to trade him
to the Lakers to make your path in the West
that much more difficult when you're ready to compete again.
They only have two players on their roster over twenty seven.
Ten of them are twenty five or under, So why
move one of the core pieces of your future is
just twenty three for a pick in six years and

(07:53):
a shooter and connect which I guess could have been
the wild card because he's white as well, you know,
and they might have been into that slim possibility that
could have been put together. But sidebar or whatever, that
deal was not made to the deal that was. Look
at this Lakers roster now and what Rob Polinka has
done the exceptional job our captain after returning to the

(08:15):
flight deck on a hell of a mission. It was
a fact finding mission, it was an espionage mission. He
had to collect assets and return home and present them
to his commanders. Hands in pockets, No, those zippers are
way too high to possibly be comfortable with your hands
in there, and you would have to have hands the
size of boulders for them not to feel like they

(08:36):
were swimming around in satin fabric. They're better. This team
is not just better than what they were, but they're
better than the bubble team I think. Oh no, yeah,
Not to take anything away from Ad, who was prime
AD in those twenty one games, I would like to
find twenty six years old.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
We had to find some very small corner of the
argument that you're.

Speaker 5 (08:57):
Making and just butt my head up against it for
the next fifteen to twenty minutes of radio.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
You mean, like, is it cool for the Lakers to
be able to trade Anthony Davis when he really settled
his family here?

Speaker 5 (09:09):
That what I kind of want to always just pick
apart what you said yesterday as opposed to what you
say today.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
Okay, I'm kind of trapping, oh like a like a trap. Yeah,
Like I went on sixty minutes and they trapped.

Speaker 3 (09:20):
Like what they did with a predator.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
It's right, you know, as a trap, and he saw
it coming, saw it. Kind of guess what's that news?

Speaker 3 (09:27):
Still?

Speaker 2 (09:27):
Warren twenty eight points, ten rebounds, one point four blocks.
Was Anthony Davis in the bubble on fifty seven percent shooting.
Fantastic Lebron James six years ago. Yeah, he's thirty four,
not forty. Twenty eight points, eleven rebounds, nearly ten assists
on fifty six percent shooting, so pretty impressive. Not gonna
say that forty year old Lebron is anywhere near as

(09:48):
good as thirty four year old Lebron, that's obvious. But
he's still playing at a considerably high level like Tom Brady,
still good enough to win the Super Bowl level if
there's a lot of talent around him and they get
the right matchup. Twenty four points, eight rebounds, nine assists
and a steal on fifty two percent shit, pretty damn good.
Thirty five minutes a game, not bad forty years old.
And you're adding Luka Doncic, who last year in the

(10:08):
playoffs averaged and they played twenty two games. The Lakers
bubble team played twenty one, so same sample size. Doncic
averaged twenty nine points, ten rebounds, nearly nine assists. Certainly
nowhere near the defensive presence that eight was on that run,
but the pressure that he puts on defenses is far
and away much more impactful than Davis did. On that

(10:29):
championship Chase Doncic is Steph Curry, He is Kevin Kevin Durant.

Speaker 3 (10:35):
James Worthy said he was Magic Johnson on stereoid Magic Johnson.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
I don't know if I would say so much on steroids.

Speaker 3 (10:41):
That's what he said, Matt. That's all I'm saying. Yeah,
he did, James Worthy.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
And I shouldn't push back, but I would say he's
like Magic Johnson on like a nice pot roast. You know,
I tell you one thing, like a nice strogan Off.

Speaker 5 (10:52):
He's better than that. Don't start talking about struggling off.
You know what excites me?

Speaker 2 (10:55):
What's your what was your thing at the at the restaurant,
the bretted Philo. There you go, that's what he is.
He has Magic Johnson on lamb Filo.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
Wow, anything's better than Magic Johnson on Twitter. Yo, I
heard what you said yesterday.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
You uh so you got those two at the top.
And remember kind of the old adage in the NBA
is used to be you needed three, and then it became,
oh you need two and a half. You need two
and a half. Well, now Lebron win a title, Lebron
needs four. So look at that bubble team. They're two
and a half behind Davis and Lebron KCP and the

(11:35):
kuser that was their half. This year, it's Austin Reeves
eighteen points, six assists, over a steal per game, and
when left alone, a viable legitimate offensive threat. Now Mark
Williams is your fourth guy that's going for sixteen and
ten if his back doesn't fall off over a block
per game. Sixty percent shooting. Role players on that bubble team,

(11:58):
Rayjon Rondo. If you've heard really good at chess, really
good old ass Danny Green.

Speaker 5 (12:06):
He couldn't beat Michael Parsons, no chance. Who Warren Sap hates.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
We should going to pot and talk it out. Alex Caruso,
Markkeith Morris, who's now back this year, Ruey Hachima back
of the shelter. He'll still beat somebody's.

Speaker 3 (12:22):
Ass Black Samarai.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
Ho, dfs Dory and Finney Smith. Jared Vanderbilt gave Vincent. Now,
Vincent been a disappointment, no question, since he signed as
a free agent last year in the offseason. But with
Donchis and Lebron on the court, and I was going
to get a giant, bumping, wide open looks for those
corner threes, suspect that number should go up. Ruey shooting
forty three percent on his threes over fifty from the floor,

(12:43):
He's going thirteen and five per game. Finney, Smith and Vando,
you're three and d guys. Smith shooting forty two percent
on his threes. Vando six rebounds and leading the team
with two steals in just fifteen minutes. I can make
the case I'm trying to right here. If don Chic
is as healthy as he was last year going into
the playoffs, this team, now that they got the big
they decided they desperately needed in place of shooting, I

(13:06):
feel like a fool. I'm guessing it's going to be
a shooter out there on the market. Gotta be on
the buyout market that they'll pick up because they sent
out to connect in Reddish, so they got one open
spot there unless they want to bring Bryson. Maybe that's
what they're gonna do. There will be another edition. I
don't know if you saw that sizzle real they just posted. Man,
it was sweet. I was trying to look up what

(13:26):
team they were playing, the Colts, but I was like,
I don't know. If I need to look it up.
I can just kind of eyeball it. There's some punch
of white guys out there right now struggling to keep
up with these dudes at Sierra Canyon. So I would
assume they'll be another addition a shooter. If they do
their job, they'll pile up points. They'll set themselves up nicely,
the buyout candidate that they can acquire for free agency.

(13:47):
This summer. The starters Bubble Team Davis Lebron, KCP, Danny Green,
Javail McGee in the middle was their center. Backups the Kouser, Rondo,
Mark and you know who.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
Yeah, I'm not gay, so just yes.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
I remember that sweet meat Dwight Howard. This year starters Doncic, Lebron, Reeves, Ruey,
Mark Williams backups. We just went through a DFS van
though gave Vincent Jackson Hayes, who by the way, looks
a lot better as of late. Sixty six percent from

(14:26):
the floor can jump out of the gym. Exactly what
Doncic wants in his bigs because Rob Polinka asked him,
not Lebron, what kind of big do you like? Forgive
me a minute, got the finished the vodka that will
get back to you. I think you can make the
case it's every bit as good, if not better. Ad

(14:47):
would be unguardable by this team, sure, but Doncic would
be the same. Now I set it all up, not
to point out the obvious as we shift the third thing,
but quickly when you stack the West, look at the standings. Lakers,
Nuggets basically tied for fourth, Lakers or a half game
BA ahead of them. The Rockets, the Grizzlies, and the Thunder.
That's your one, two and three Thunder Grizzlies, Rockets, Oklahoma
City's very good. They're just about to get that chet

(15:09):
holmgrin back to play with Hartenstein. Hart the heart, Oh
the heart of Hartenstein and Chet. A lot of hustle,
a lot of size out there. Sega obviously a problem. Again,
Lebron Doncic figure that one out. The Rockets are children,
like really good children, but it's a roster of kids.
Their top two scores are twenty two Seng Gooon and Green,

(15:32):
Amon Thompson's twenty two, Jabari Smith is twenty one. Memphis
is good the jaw superstar Jackson Junior might be the
most underrated player in league, but again, Doncic and Lebron
So why did I bring it all up? Why do
I lay this all out as you look at it,
Now that the trade deadline is coming gone, and Mark
Williams is here and there's gonna be some buyout candidates
they can drop into one of these spots, because, as

(15:53):
we discussed yesterday, Lebron has always been quick to point
out what's wrong, what needs to be fixed, what they need. Memes,
the hourglass emoji, the sip and coffee meme, like hey,
I'm just waiting man, and then just to write it out,
maybe it's me.

Speaker 3 (16:11):
Yes, we've seen all these things.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
Maybe it's me. These are all trade deadline Lebron James
correspond in subtweets, as many like to call them, based
on the lack of movement from the Lakers. So I
kind of dug into his social media feed. Now that
they've made all these great moves to upgrade their team
and people think they're legitimate contenders, I want to know
what I saw on his Twitter. He's got a post

(16:33):
about the weekend's album being fire like fifteen fire emojis
cool and a Draft Kings promo for the Big Game. Instagram,
he's got a photo of him and Luca so there's that,
and then he's wearing Sierra Canyon Nike's for a game
some Kendrick Lamar.

Speaker 3 (16:52):
This feels like he's dealing with the Luca thing begrudgingly.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
It seems like it. Yeah, that's how I would say,
and like an infrared light recovery thing. So still waiting
for the Hey, way to go, Rob Polinka, Way to go,
Genie Buss. I was hoping to make another run at
a championship in my twilight years, and it appears as
though you have made that available for me. But alas
all I have, he's the weekend's album's fire. Maybe he uh,

(17:20):
maybe he's just taking his time and crafting the perfect message.

Speaker 5 (17:22):
No, I just think it's clear that he cares more
about control than he does really anything else. Control and credit.
Pete Carroll's story.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
Age is just a number.

Speaker 5 (17:34):
What same for lebron And we'll be back with Geter McGhee,
you and f and lie Keeter McGee's no liar. He
doesn't have to wash Brownie as hard as he used to.
Peter McGee will join us now. He's not gonna watch him. Sorry, certainly,
but he's not. He can get away with not buffing
at as hard as he used to. We'll be back

(17:56):
with Peter McGee.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
Petro saying money. AM five seventy LA Sports Live everywhere
on the iHeartRadio app. As we make our way towards
six thirty, it is Clippers basketball tonight against the Indiana
PACER's a lot of heat, a lot of heat on
the clips right now at the trade deadline, picking up
boyon Bodanovich. What and Beau Shamp Marjon beau Shamp. Nobody's

(18:24):
talking about that man got some heat.

Speaker 5 (18:26):
They're talking about the Lakers, Lucatan chicch the big man
that the Lakers brought in.

Speaker 3 (18:34):
Consulted Luca about it. Man, it feels like the winds,
a change of blood.

Speaker 2 (18:39):
Appreciate you really to believe me.

Speaker 5 (18:42):
A lot of people appreciate this new Slovene vibe that
made me come back, made me come back to the Lakers,
joining us right now. A hero to the people, an anchor,
a huge part of the California Surf club down in
Redondo Beach, that me come back or talking about him
from h the North End all the way down to

(19:03):
Hanna Season Redondo.

Speaker 3 (19:06):
The one and only Geter McGhee.

Speaker 5 (19:08):
Spectrum Sports down La on your Southern California Toyota. Neither
said celebrity online. Yeah, emergency podcasts. He's been working his
ass off all week. Peter, you feel like you're walking
on sunshine.

Speaker 3 (19:20):
I bet you do. Brother.

Speaker 4 (19:22):
I feel pretty good. Your clips made some good moves.
I'm excited.

Speaker 3 (19:27):
Club. Try on me.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Yeah, there's some heat on the clips with Boon Bogdanam and.

Speaker 3 (19:33):
Shut up everybody, let's talk about this.

Speaker 2 (19:36):
Come on, let's get what do you think of that move?

Speaker 1 (19:37):
Man?

Speaker 3 (19:38):
Don't try to jerk the wheel right when you get
on the air.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
When you think of bow sham, that's sweet.

Speaker 3 (19:44):
Don't do it. Peter.

Speaker 4 (19:45):
Did you see the last wave from Matt money Smith
and Seal Beach? He's cracking it.

Speaker 3 (19:49):
I wasn't see Beach, right, was I monitor?

Speaker 5 (19:52):
You know?

Speaker 2 (19:53):
I was Montana all the surfing.

Speaker 4 (19:57):
I'm excited. Guys.

Speaker 3 (19:58):
Come on, are you right in the way of your
And it's not the short break that you're used to.
This is a big wave you had.

Speaker 5 (20:05):
This is what right before this trade happened, everybody started
screaming outside.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
You started padding.

Speaker 5 (20:13):
Uh, come on, come on, Geeter, Like as far as
doing this job is, for as long as you've done.
Uh is this the biggest? Was that the biggest moment
you've ever covered? I mean, you covered Lebron's signing here,
but this feels like a Wilder deal.

Speaker 4 (20:27):
It does feel like a Wilder deal. And you guys
love Big Game, you know him well. You know many
times we've looked across at each other and been like, man,
we've been here through it together thirteen years, the ups
and the downs. This one just felt different. Like all
my buddies are just kind of casuals now and don't
watch as much anymore. I mean, they're all coming out
of the woodwork. They're so back. So it was super
fun and I didn't see it coming. I did not

(20:48):
see it coming. It wasn't even a.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
How could you thought?

Speaker 4 (20:52):
Yeah, it wasn't even a thought. I actually, you know me,
I'm always, you know, the positive Laker guy, and I
was actually enjoying the team. I thought they were good
and you know, doing some great things with top eight
in the league. But so I was like excited about
what I was seeing every night. They were starting to
play better. But when this happened, I was like, oh, okay,
this is different. So I was, you know, obviously get
a chance to get Luca twenty five, twenty six years

(21:13):
old is unheard of.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
So give us an idea of how you suspect, Geeter,
this team is going to play with those two dudes
on the court. You know Lebron very well. That made me,
you know why he came back. You told him right there.
How do you suspect if if Luca's you know, considered
to be the best, you know, guy with vision ball

(21:35):
in his hands set up his teammates for success. Uh,
Lebron's been doing that his whole career, Like, how does
this thing work?

Speaker 5 (21:42):
You know?

Speaker 4 (21:43):
I think since the del trade, we've seen the ball
with Austin Reeves in his hands a lot more too.
And JJ's done a lot of good things with Lebron
off ball. He's a little more youth th the screener
and cutt into the basket. So I assume he'll trade
off with Luca and be able to kind of figure
that out through the best ever do it in that regards,
He's played with Tyree's played with d Wade. Yeah, he's

(22:03):
always been kind of the dominant guy. But it'll be
interesting to see how that kind of grows because it's
not gonna be perfect at first, but I mean you're
talking two of the highest IQ guys, Matt, so I
think they're gonna figure it out, and I think it'll
be fun. And listen, Lebron has said for the last
few years, you know it's AD's team. Well, now he's.

Speaker 3 (22:22):
Gonna happen.

Speaker 4 (22:25):
With Luca because Luca is the man. So it'll be
super fun to see how those guys figured it out.
I'm curious, like with Austin, to see does he run
more with that second unit because he's kind of coming
to his own and you need that other ball handler,
so it'll be it'll be interesting to see what happens
with him as well.

Speaker 2 (22:37):
We were just talking about it in the last segment. Geter,
I think you can make a case that this team
going into the playoffs is every bit is good. If not,
maybe you know, better than the team that won the
Bubble Championship. Yeah, I just that.

Speaker 4 (22:53):
Team Money was way better defensively that I think people
ever gave them credit for, like especially on the perimeter,
and they had all that houseiness and Rondo became playoff Rono,
but Cruso, those kind of guys, So I'm curious, like
losing a guy like Max, and unless you watched every night,
you probably didn't kind of see that growth. But he's
really good on ball defender. I'm a little kind of

(23:13):
interested to see who steps up there like vander has
been unbelievable. Jared Vanderbilt. I'd love to see him just
continue to be healthy, get up to twenty twenty five minutes.
He's kind of a game changer for me on that
side of the ball. And then Jean Finny Smith was
a great move. He also can guard on ball, So
that's the one area where I'm just not sure compared
to twenty twenty. But offensively, I don't know. Man, It's

(23:34):
tough to beat what the Lakers have right now in
terms of the past.

Speaker 5 (23:37):
Hero to the Laker nation, Peter McGhee a star all
over the town.

Speaker 3 (23:42):
We love him and he joins the show when we
need him. And here he is right now on the
petch of Somebody Show on Amp five seventy LA Sports Now, Geeter,
this did happen in a weird way, and like you said,
there was no way for anybody to see it coming.
How deep do you go in the conspiracy theory world?
Do you just enjoy what's in your lap and you're
walking around smiling, whistling like an idiot.

Speaker 4 (24:04):
I do you know? I love walking around whistling like
an idiot.

Speaker 3 (24:09):
Everybody talks about it.

Speaker 4 (24:10):
Yeah, I'm a complete, complete goof. Everyone knows that I
love the positive side of it. But I'm not going
to go too deep. But I will say this, and
I said it the first night to my buddies, and
the text were going crazy, and Billy McK and these
guys as well. I said, the Nico hit me right away,
like the Nico rob relationship from Kobe. I don't think
you can pull it off unless you have that kind

(24:31):
of ability to trust, because if that thing leaks at all,
it's over right. So, uh, you know, I didn't get
too deep into the weeds, but I definitely followed those
reports and read and kind of came to my own
conclusions that these guys started talking on January seventh, got
the owners involved, and kept it as hush as they
could until until it was time, which is almost impossible
in this day and age to be impressed.

Speaker 3 (24:51):
With that Oswald ACKed it alone. You have a lone man,
loan gunman theory. Is that what we're going with.

Speaker 4 (24:58):
Me always, always a couple of guys on the grass.

Speaker 5 (25:01):
You didn't see the dude. The driver just turned around.
It did a little pot shot right in his head.
Why do you think Jackie trying to climb out of
the back.

Speaker 4 (25:09):
Oh, I love a good conspiracy. I'm always I'm not
afraid to go down the rabbit.

Speaker 5 (25:13):
Maybe it goes deeper than that coffee shopping me going
roughly right?

Speaker 2 (25:16):
Maybe who is the barista? Blah blah.

Speaker 4 (25:23):
Turns out Presdhan, our guy bresda Han was in Dallas
that week at the team. I'm like, why weren't you
just saddling up right now?

Speaker 3 (25:33):
Tattoos?

Speaker 2 (25:33):
Exactly because he's a TV guy. That's why Geter. He's
no longer pounding the pavement as a journalist. He's just
a pretty face with a haircut talking on the TV
stand over the.

Speaker 4 (25:44):
Remember when he was just a nice La Times guy.

Speaker 5 (25:46):
Yeah, and then he started wearing the tightest T shirt
in town and it all went to hell.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
You know, he's on the TV getting his hair done.
You know what I like more than any of the
guys getting my hair done.

Speaker 4 (25:58):
I love the boys medium.

Speaker 3 (26:00):
Up my hair every day.

Speaker 2 (26:03):
Geter, just when you're sitting in front of like the
black velvet curtain in a in a recliner chair. Though,
you know, twenty years from now discussing this incredible run
of Lakers greatness, Don Chic and Lebron and what Genie
buss And it does feel like kind of nobody was
talking about the NBA for about a month and a half,
and if they were, was all negative And now all

(26:24):
of a sudden, it's all positive right now that Doncich
is a Laker done, you don't feel like, hey, this
may have saved the NBA with all the negative storylines
that we're being thrown out around there.

Speaker 4 (26:35):
Money one thousand percent that did not get lost on
me this week. I feel like I'm battling my own
people so many times because I'm an NBA guy. That's
how I make my living, and it's just getting crapped
on all the time.

Speaker 3 (26:45):
But how about the.

Speaker 4 (26:45):
Super Bowl week? The NBA just absolutely dominating the headlines.
It's kind of cool. And I do think a lot
of guys changing teams. We've never seen this many stars.
I mean, I'm watching garon Fox in the Spurs uniform
last night. I think it has garned some extra vis
and you know, viewers, I think people are back a
little bit. We'll see, we'll see siding around here, that's
for sure.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
I know they they made the Saturday game in national television,
but I assume you guys are still carrying that one too.

Speaker 4 (27:11):
Yeah, well, okay, still carrying that Monday. We thought we
might get it alone.

Speaker 3 (27:15):
But the way that comes in and just guys, right,
it's the local coverage, right.

Speaker 4 (27:23):
I was kind of hoping for a little ratings bumpy
and then you know that's just you know, but we'll
still be on. We'll still be on.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
Will you be out there? Is it a big enough game?
Are you going to roll the dice that Luca plays?
You guys do it from the court? No, no, no,
no no, But I will be out what crazy.

Speaker 4 (27:40):
I'm going out there. We will do the show, the
game games myself on the Dallas game.

Oh yeah at twenty five? Right?

Speaker 4 (27:48):
Hey, money exactly the money there.

they'll give me.

By the way, sorry, no prompter just went off the

no big deal, super easy to do. But you guys
smoked me out on that one. That's the one you
got me out of the weeds, just in the hills
of the Costa Rica calling you.

Speaker 3 (30:08):
Think of it like your your own Ema, your own
yellow Jima. You better dig, you better dig and dig

Speaker 3 (30:40):

be like Lancelot sitting next to the King. He's the best.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
And it's b as that they made that Saturday game

The Legend of Rock a bye point.

Speaker 1 (36:27):

Rock a by point. This all started aboard my ship twenty.

Speaker 3 (36:46):
Years ago, was her.

Speaker 6 (36:49):
We just made a big.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
Haul of blue fin tuna.

Speaker 6 (36:53):
Now colar bears like fish, so do little penguins.

Speaker 2 (37:04):
If you've never seen it, or maybe aren't familiar with
the title, it's the one where the dog is supposed
to stay asleep and Chili keeps sabotaging. The bear, wakes
the dog up, it bites it in the ass, so
anytime he has to make a noise, he has to
run out of the house sh the scream. It's truly
one of the all time great He also did Yogi Bear,
Quick Draw McGraw, The flint Stone Straw Yes, and Wacky Races,

(37:28):
Hey Geist, Unbelievable, Good It All, two hundred storyboards for Hannah.
Barbara briefly worked with the twelve Productions for Tom and
Jerry sixty three to sixty five, A true Legend Dead
in eighty one. Last cartoon he did was Duck Dodgers.

Speaker 3 (37:42):
Oh, Duck Dodger's pretty sweet.

Speaker 2 (37:43):
Exactly right, happy dead guy. Michael Maltese, All.

Speaker 5 (37:48):
Right, Matt, well, it is Bob Marley's birthday as well.
But you the singer, you flew right past that like
the plane with the fire Steve Alford banner behind him.

Speaker 3 (37:58):
Dud went right overhead.

Speaker 2 (37:59):
We know how much you like him. I've been to
your house and you have the Bob Marley legend post
all right there above your desk, and the Robin Tuck.

Speaker 5 (38:06):
We play One Love all twelve hours, right from midnight
to noon. We played One Love from noon to midnight?

Speaker 3 (38:16):
Could you be loved?

Speaker 2 (38:16):
Oh, and don't forget about the live it's like Woman
in the House.

Speaker 3 (38:21):
Yeah, I don't like that original recording of no Woman,
nor too Fast.

Speaker 2 (38:24):
Too Fast, give me the slow live one.

Speaker 5 (38:26):
Well, Matt, we will celebrate another reggae singer. Luckily it's
still a lie.

Speaker 3 (38:33):
It's news seem bro storn. You would like this guy, Matt,
you can leave him on. Errol Dunckley.

Speaker 5 (38:42):
Seventy four years old today, Hell, he can coach the
raiders at seventy four.

Speaker 2 (38:47):
Errol Man, that's cheap shot man, man age just number man.

Speaker 5 (38:51):
Well, that's how Ero feels about it as well. Eastern
Kingston where else. His recording career began in nineteen sixty five,
when he was only fourteen years of age, at Lynden
Pottinger's Gay Feet label.

Speaker 2 (39:07):
Did you call My Feet gay Theater? Very headerow?

Speaker 5 (39:10):
But I think in those days, Matt, in the sixties,
if you had gay feet, you know you're dancing.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
Well, I'm offended by that as a gay man, Paul,
gay men are not supposed to be able to dance.
Maybe I just like smoking boat.

Speaker 5 (39:21):
Why do us homosexuals have to be lumped in with
the lebron sexuals? That song was My Queen and the
Eternal love Me forever. He did there on the Rio label,
he worked with the great Joe Gibbs, not the old
Redskins Coach, and then Cox and Dodd.

Speaker 2 (39:40):
Cool. If you worked with the Redskins Coach.

Speaker 3 (39:42):
He wouldn't wear the bike shorts.

Speaker 5 (39:45):
And then with the legendary kroner Gregory Isaacs in the seventies,
they teamed up and created a label, African Museum. Gregory
Isaacs one of the greatest reggae singers of all time,
also a notorious kraken, and Gregory pushed him out.

Speaker 2 (40:00):
I think it was so great.

Speaker 5 (40:02):
I would say it was I would say it was
a spider the crap. He started his own label, the
Silver Ring Label, and that's where he had his biggest hips,
keeping the pressure down. And this one Matt a very
famous reggae song, Black Cinderella.

Speaker 2 (40:18):
It's my favorite Cinderella.

Speaker 3 (40:21):
Her shoes were bigger.

Speaker 2 (40:24):
I call her Spinderella. Well that's no, no, no.

Speaker 3 (40:31):
Spin. He can't do that to Errol Dugley's music.

Speaker 5 (40:33):
I won't let it happen. He enjoyed some residual success
in the UK. He's a skinny faced man that performs
fall and remains an icon in the early reggae roots
rock steady Pantheon. His phone number is on his Instagram,
so that's supposed, but he could give him a call.

Speaker 2 (40:50):
Pretty cool.

Speaker 3 (40:52):
Many of his albums are still being dug up from
Obscurity and.

Speaker 5 (40:55):
Pain and hipster cool guy reggae clubs to this day,
like dub Club an Echo Park every Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (41:04):
What's your place in? Uh? What would it beat? I
guess Inglewood?

Speaker 3 (41:09):
Oh, yeah, the Wood.

Speaker 2 (41:11):
They would like the Wood the hardiest would come on
at about twelve thirty am.

Speaker 5 (41:16):
Yeah, which is really not what they'd actually preferred to
four four to thirty five am, which is what they
do at Jamaica, right, h can't pull that off at
Englewood too much centric. All right, we'll be back. We're
gonna do a uh final our fun fact maybe meat yeah,
and then we're gonna we're gonna do and then we'll

(41:37):
have Clippers pacers. Clippers made a trade.

Speaker 2 (41:40):
