Speaker 4 (01:27):
Matt, it is a great thing that we have the
Dodgers back on the air. Yesterday we had a four
hour show. It was a great time to do great
sports talk. Four hours great sports talk all week. The
Dodgers are at home, We're gonna have three hours of pop.
Tim Kats is in a great mood because he's no

(01:47):
longer working fifteen hours a day. He is just dancing
in the streets like Mick Jagger and David Bowie. That's
the word on the street. At least Kate's is pretty
good mood. Things are going well. I feel like the
Dodgers are winning.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
Isn't this great?

Speaker 4 (02:08):
And the Petrosen Muddy Show has a strong foothold in
the world of great sports talk.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
Our troubles are over great sports talk.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
Are we excited about the Zen she Sweet Life? Well?
Are we excited about being on the road potentially next
week two out of the five days of the week, Matte,
I mean.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
We got a Chargers golf tournament, We've got a zench
Sweet Live. I believe that's next week. It's a game
this month, So next week I think looks like the
likely spot. Definitely not this week. But you gotta register
for that by Sunday. So they're going to close entries
on Sunday. Where do you register Ralph's Grocery store at
the zen She counter, so hit that up. We love

(02:50):
zen She. We eat Zench here. Whenever they bring it,
we consume it. Oh, it's a party, Matt. I wasn't
there for the last zen She. It's well documented on Instagram.
You're there showing off all the different sushi's. Matt, and
I just like much like the Tim Kates calling yee
zen She skit on the a m II seventy Instagram

(03:11):
the other day or Tim Kates's Instagram the other day.

Speaker 4 (03:15):
And I have to say I was a little cello
so that I wasn't involved in the zench because when
zen She comes to the house, it's a real celebration.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
Do you think Deb gets upset that I call her Deb?
Because I noticed the other people call her Debrah. Yeah,
and I can't help. I gotta answer that with a
story from my past. Uh.

Speaker 4 (03:35):
There used to be these people that lived down the
street from us, the Kazarians, when I was growing up
on our street with with my dad and mom and everybody,
and they had kids, our age and such, and they
moved to a nicer neighborhood like the Lanes. They moved
to Strawberry Lane, which was kind of tony back then,

(03:57):
and that's where how he long lived. And her name
was Debbie Kazarian. And then and then after they moved
and the Christmas card said, Deborah, you know what I'm saying, right,
So step up in live and change things. So maybe
when Debbie was just a sushi sous chef at Zen

(04:18):
she and not the head of marketing.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
Yeah, she's like a big wig now. So it's Debra
and I keep calling her deb Yeah.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
I bet everybody called her deb back then.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
You know, I just feel like we have that relationship.
You know, it's in a plastic heart.

Speaker 4 (04:32):
I don't know. It could be the equivalent of the
time Steve Hartman called James Taylor JT.

Speaker 5 (04:41):
I think you can get away with him.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
Matt Okay Yeah, she likes it, but you don't think
so because I noticed it.

Speaker 4 (04:46):
She doesn't like it. That's not good.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
I want to make sure you know if she wants
to be called Deborah, I'm gonna call her Deborah.

Speaker 4 (04:51):
But when I say Debla, well the sales guy he
already called me a sexual DV. He did, And was
that directed at me or both of us?

Speaker 3 (04:59):
Both of you guys?

Speaker 4 (05:00):
Yeah? Okay, well I'm not over that. Has that been addressed?
That guy called me risque? I'm gonna show him risque.
I'm gonna show up with miss nipple.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
Tassels next time, missile boom nipple tassel.

Speaker 4 (05:16):
Well, you're missing quite an effect here, Bob.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
Check this out. Deb We love Zenchi sushi. I was
singing its praises yesterday as the A M. Five to
seventy video posted, uh in educating everybody about how cool
it is that they franchised these counters and it's a
sushi chef and they make it all fresh. You gotta
try the spicy tune or the ma man I like.

(05:40):
The mango chili was my favorite.

Speaker 4 (05:43):
What a what a wild combination of flavor?

Speaker 2 (05:46):
And is Colin Ye taught us?

Speaker 4 (05:50):
Yes, thank you, Matt.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
He was sure to critique me after the video was
done in a one take Jake style, and he's like,
you know, I get it. It's it's how a lot
of white people say it. Said that, Yeah, he said that.
He's like, it's how most white people say it, but
if you really want to pronounce it properly, it's onigri.
And I was like, okay. I was like, just understand.
You know some things have happened here in the past
that every time I'm about to say it, I have

(06:16):
a pause in my brain. I stall out, I buffer,
and the pinwheel start spinning because I just say, wait
a minute. I know there's one way. I know there's
one thing I can't call it, even though somebody is
adamant that that's what I'm supposed to call it.

Speaker 4 (06:30):
Well, that's even worse than risque.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
It sure is.

Speaker 4 (06:33):
They're gonna check. They're gonna really check your Internet history.

Speaker 2 (06:36):
It worked out exactly right, Hey, Is that why the
boss came in to talk to you?

Speaker 4 (06:39):
There?

Speaker 2 (06:40):
Is that why b Long was in there with you?
Because I searched child porn on my Google.

Speaker 4 (06:44):
Hey, guys, we got an alert.

Speaker 6 (06:45):
Guys, all right, I didn't say much. He just said,
when Matt's done, have him come and see me in
law enforcement.

Speaker 4 (06:52):
It was, Uh, I don't think they'd let you back
on Matt, but it's it was the new pornographer's guy.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
Yes, drummer, that's the drummer.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
Sadly the name of the band rided a cover for
all those years.

Speaker 2 (07:04):
Who who would have guessed.

Speaker 4 (07:09):
Not funny? All right? Time of the word of the day, his.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
Words, the word of the day.

Speaker 4 (07:16):
Today's word of the day is sign of the times. Matt.
You know Steve Clarkson, the quarterback whisper. Yeah, he had
Matt Barkley.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
He had kid.

Speaker 4 (07:29):
The super baby quarterback who was a pretty good receiver
for for West Virginia. David steven Sills, yea Sills, David
Sills and uh Clarkson's son who is a dual threat quarterback.
And he was at Saint John Bosco remember split in time, Yeah,
with that other guy Howser or Bowser and uh he

(07:52):
signed at Louisville and then he went to Old Miss.
And now if I can have the tiffany coming because
he has three years of eligibility remaining. Three Jesus, I

(08:13):
remember calling his games during that one COVID season on
Fox Sports Web. Pierce Clarkson is signed with U c
l A to back up Nico. They said that Nico

(08:38):
Malayaba was a calming presence in the last couple of
spring practices at U c l A. He stood around
with his jewelry on his sweet sweatshirt. So h U
c l A has two tram well three with the
two Malayama brothers and Clarkson now two seasons out of

(09:02):
high school and heading to his third college. If two
seasons out of high school headed to your third college
is not a sign of the times, I don't know
what is.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
I heard they call him Clark the dark dark third
school man. Narks These dudes out, they're going to move on.

Speaker 4 (09:21):
Listen, I know what they like to do. This is
a split zone team. Guys.

Speaker 6 (09:25):
Now you're probably wondering why they're bringing another quarterback in.
It's because four other quarterbacks that they had all transferred
out as soon as Nico got there a couple of
weeks ago. So they don't have a lot of quarterbacks
besides the two brothers, Nico and Madden, and now they've
got Clarkson's kid.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
There's not a lot of.

Speaker 6 (09:42):
Depth at the quarterback room anymore because they all left.

Speaker 4 (09:44):
Well, they got three, the brothers and Pierce Clarkson and
Cloud Bethel Thompson's MCD Bethel Thompson's coming back.

Speaker 3 (09:54):
To great reference.

Speaker 4 (09:56):
Thank you. It's not of the number of the day.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
Number of the day.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
Number of the day is three hundred. This was a
Tim Kates idea. He just threw it out here. He
threw it out there. I don't think he realized what
he said in the moment when I took that nugget
and ran with it. He and I were in the
prep zone together when the news broke about Pete Rose,
and you know, he said, oh, guy's dead and can't

(10:24):
even make an induction speech. And I said, oh, con
Fremont Frere, I'm gonna hit up the chat GBT, no no,
and I'm gonna do first person Hall of Fame induction speech.

Speaker 4 (10:36):
We can't become an AI show, Matt, not after a
I did its dirty with the petrosmat.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
You know, I can see thank you, thank you all
standing here today. I feel like the luckiest man on
the face of the earth. This moment's been a long
time coming. Some said it would never come, and honestly,
there were times I believed them. But baseball, like life,
doesn't always follow a straight path. Sometimes we strike out, okay,

(11:04):
sometimes we slide headfirst into rock bottom. But if there's
anything I've learned, it's that heart, hustle, and time can
bring you back. So I want to thank the Hall
of Fame, the Veterans Committee, and everyone who finally believed
I deserved to be here, not just for what I
did wrong, but for what I did right. And I
did a lot right. On the field, I played the

(11:25):
game the only way I knew how hard every pitch,
every bad, every inning. I ran the first base on walks.
I dove into bases like my life dependent on it.
I wasn't the fastest, I didn't hit the most home runs,
but I showed up every single day ready to play
like it was my last. That's how you get four
two hundred and fifty six hits. That's how you become

(11:46):
Charlie Hustle. But I made mistakes, big ones. I gambled
on the game I love, and for that I paid
a heavy price. I was wrong. I let down my teammates,
my fans, my family, and the sport itself. I've apologized before,
and I'll say it again today. I'm sorry. I don't
ask anyone to forget what I did. I only asked
to remember how I played, because baseball was never just

(12:09):
a job to me. It was my passion, my obsession,
my joy, and even when I was on the outside
looking in, I never stopped loving this game.

Speaker 4 (12:16):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (12:17):
I want to thank my family, especially my children, for
standing by me through everything. You believed in me when
I gave you every reason not to, and I love
you more than words can say. To my teammates, thank you.
You made me better, You pushed me, You taught me
how to win out of lead, how to lose. That
big red machine was more than a team.

Speaker 3 (12:32):
It was a family.

Speaker 2 (12:35):
And of the fans, baseball fans, people who grew up
watching me dive head first into second. Thank you. Your
support has meant everything. I know I let you down,
but your letters, your cheers, your unwavering believe it carried me.
I'm not perfect, I'm not polished, but I am proud.
I'm proud of my journey, the highs, the lows, all
of it because it brought me right here to this moment,

(12:56):
Cooper's Town, this stage, and this honor baseball is give
me more than I ever gave it. In today, I
feel like I finally come home. Wow, thank you God,
bless and play ball.

Speaker 4 (13:09):
So that so that is, that's a Ai Pete Rose speech.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
That is the Ai Pete Rose three hundred words first
person Hall of Fame induction speech.

Speaker 4 (13:22):
Well, I look forward to hearing his Korean widow deliver it.
It's gonna be awesome.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
It's gonna sound exactly like that.

Speaker 4 (13:31):
It's not gonna be Johnny Bench.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
Now I could adjust the chat GPT and type in
as a sixty year old Korean widow would write it,
and then maybe it would move a little bit.

Speaker 4 (13:43):
I think that would likely maybe tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
Ronnie, this is the song of the day.

Speaker 7 (13:54):
Today's song of the day is called Spike Island from
veteran English band Pulp and it's new music for your
Tuesday Afternoon from the forthcoming album titled More that's out
for consumption on June the sixth, and it's a catchy
tune for your Tuesday Afternoon. Where the Petros and Money
Show is back on the Dodger home schedule with a

(14:15):
three hour radio program as the Athletics baseball club rolls
into town to start a lengthy homestand that'll begin with
our friend Tim Cats, who'll have your Marongo Casino Dodgers
on Deck show that's coming up at six.

Speaker 4 (14:29):
How are you running? Are you ready? And we'll be
right back with some local knowledge and then the top
story of.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
The day, Metro Some Money AM five to seventy LA
Sports Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app PMS on demand.
The Petros and Money podcast available there, and you can
stream the show live anywhere in the world. Tonight it's
Dodgers as David Vassil join us in about an hour,

(14:55):
give you a preview of that all the latest moves
and madness surrounding and his team that is perennially injured,
the Oklahoma City Express, the claiming of players off waivers, trades,
everything that's going on. David vesse with the latest little
bit of an American League run here beginning with the
A's tonight.

Speaker 4 (15:13):
And we heard from John Haymon yesterday and I couldn't
believe it. The American League sucks. That's what he said, basically,
that the National League is so leagued up and that
the American League is a freaking joke, and I was
surprised at that as well. I don't you know, I

(15:34):
did not expect that.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
Yeah, because you know, they got the Yankees.

Speaker 4 (15:37):
Usually the American League wipes the floor with the National
League and the All Star Game times. Yeah, and everybody
always acts the fool and they used to talk about
the DH and all that, and it's not the case anymore.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
So Oh yeahs you asked about the Tigers in Hinch
and he was like, they're pretty good, but everything else sucks, right.

Speaker 4 (15:55):
And I was like, well, thanks, what a great place
to finish it. You know, if we had him on today,
we could ask about Shoeless Joe and Pete Rose and
have a robust conversation.

Speaker 2 (16:04):
Right, but pretend like we know what the hell we're doing, well,
don't we?

Speaker 4 (16:08):
I mean, do we have to put Hartman on tomorrow
about this?

Speaker 2 (16:11):
I'm ready and waiting. I'll be you want to come
on out? I mean, come on right now, dude.

Speaker 4 (16:16):
I think it's a fair question.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
Ken, that's fair. Yeah, let's do Hartman tomorrow.

Speaker 4 (16:20):
Is this enough of a Hall of Fame bombshell? Or
is tomorrow too late? Did we not strike while the
iron is hot? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (16:29):
You probably missed that on that time people move on tomorrow.

Speaker 4 (16:32):
All right, Okay, well it just depends if tomorrow's a
slow sports day. We're colling Hartman about the Hall of
Fame and revisiting the topic.

Speaker 2 (16:40):
Agreed, I would like to put one qualifier.

Speaker 4 (16:43):
In this because I think Lebron will probably do something
between then and now to cost trending. That's fair.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
I would just have one qualifier. Yeah, Steve still has
his Heisman vote right, well, without a doubt. Okay, then
let's put that's a lifetime vote. Yeah, let's put him on.

Speaker 4 (16:58):
Okay, did you do that to slight me in some
way a little bit? Okay, Well, I don't think that's necessary.
You know, I'm gonna make a call. P I'm gonna
make a call. I'm gonna get you in there. I'm
gonna do it.

Speaker 2 (17:07):
I promise, I'm gonna do it.

Speaker 4 (17:09):
I'm comfortable with my bullet and the cough vote. All right,
as the wide receiver expert that I am and have
always been.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Whatever. See now you just said that to rub it
into my face that I can't get on the Ray
Guy vote list.

Speaker 3 (17:21):
Well, why would you even be considered?

Speaker 2 (17:23):
Why wouldn't I?

Speaker 4 (17:25):
I can think of a lot of reason, freaking heartman. Anyway,
I'm gonna make a call. P I'm gonna get one
for you.

Speaker 2 (17:34):
You watch, I'm gonna do it.

Speaker 4 (17:35):
Tim Kates is obviously something. Somebody's got it out for you.
Tim Kates. Uh will have to make that decision. We'll
see what kind of sports day tomorrow is. You know
the NBA is now fraudulent. Do we even cover it anymore?
It's like covering the WWE.

Speaker 2 (17:52):
We should do that more. Get a rush on the phone.

Speaker 4 (17:55):
Well you see what Pat McAfee's turned into. You know,
I mean he's like out there getting choked. I know, right,
he's out there and bloodied.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
So cool. I wish I could do that.

Speaker 4 (18:02):
People love it. Uh, it's time for local. Now we're
a local show. That's where humble We're local. It's time
for local common knowledge.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
His local knowledge. He's very knowledgeable on.

Speaker 8 (18:17):
The things that you come up with as part for.

Speaker 3 (18:19):
With your knowledge.

Speaker 4 (18:22):
We've had a lot going on, Matt through the entire
tenure of our show in regards to wildlife in southern
California and man's interaction with said wildlife as we have
documented it over and over the Peacock sagas of the
San Gabriel Valley, Temple City, Arcadia, Glendora, Rancho Palas Verdes,

(18:49):
Rolling Hills Estates. Peacock killer has been dormant for maybe
over a decade.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
Now, but he's still out there.

Speaker 4 (18:56):
He's still at large allegedly, but there recently has been
a gigantic Rancho Palas Verdes peacock humane relocation program that
has been reinstalled. So that is going on with the peacocks.
We've covered that a whole bunch. I know. You remember

(19:17):
recently we had the parent shootings and and the parent
net killings. You know that they were putting up the
nets and trapping the parents. Not cool, and the and
the shooting of the parent. Remember that that was Pasadena,
Temple City area.

Speaker 6 (19:36):
Glendale, Burbank too. Don't forget about us, US so stupid
parents US.

Speaker 4 (19:41):
Yeah, are you talking about the Burbank bear? B one? No,
not b one. I want to call this bear. Hopefully
you still harass this Armenian family while they were snaping
on their porch.

Speaker 6 (19:52):
The parents travel, The parents travel, Burbank, Glendale, they travel.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
They're beautiful majestic birds.

Speaker 4 (19:58):
How do they travel? Cas They just hop on their claws?

Speaker 6 (20:01):
Or do they they get into BMW's and they go
to do bah.

Speaker 4 (20:07):
Nice shute, get on the one four you can't shoot.
And Matt, you know, nobody and I mean nobody covered
that Mountain Lion's death like us still cover it. There
was a KFI weekend special, but we still covered it

(20:27):
in our own unique way.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
I just thought about him the other day, you know,
I was driving home from San Luis Obispo and I
saw that sweet animal crossing over the one on one there.
Oh yeah, And I was like that thingk's pretty awesome.

Speaker 4 (20:38):
And there's also an early man. If you notice, it's
not just animals, it's a hunched over kind of truckling.
That guy holding a club he's crossing too. Yeah, that
guy knows what he's doing. But now, Matt, we have
a new issue. Well he knows how to hunt, you know.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Well he had that lady being dragged by her. Yeah,
and that's his style, the club on the shoulder and
boone through his nose. That's right.

Speaker 4 (20:59):
It was awesome, But we do you have a new issue, Matt.
It's not the parrot deaths of Pasadena. It's not the
peacocks of the South Bay and the San Gabriel Valley.
It's not P. Twenty two. There's chickens involved. We have
a new issue. It is the Brazen Squirrels of Palisades

(21:20):
Park in Santa Monica, California. And I wish I could
tell this story as well as Gordon Takamatsu from NBC
The Great Foot Soldier. But Matt, this was on the
NBC News last night, The Big the Big Bird, the Peacock.
In another way, Gordon Takamatsu reporting from Palisades Park in

(21:40):
Santa Monica. You know the one right up there over pH.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
Yeah, I know it very well, beautiful park.

Speaker 4 (21:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:46):
You used to do tai chi there, I know, like
to climb them steps and then end up at that
park and then wear my fancy clothes, do my tai
chi drink.

Speaker 4 (21:56):
And your white claws later in the day. Absolutely, there
is Gordon Takomatsu reporting from Palisades Park.

Speaker 9 (22:05):
Just say there are dozens of them would be an understatement,
more like hundreds. And these are only the ones you
can see with your eyes. You're at Palisades Park.

Speaker 4 (22:14):
Yeah, is this normal?

Speaker 1 (22:16):
We don't know it.

Speaker 9 (22:17):
Stroll over to Cliff's Edge overlooking Pacific Coast Highway and
you can see where they live, adults, males, females, and youngsters.
They're inside those tunnels. In fact, ground squirrel litters tend
to arrive seven or eight at a time. I would
say it's not good. This man who identifies himself with
one attention getting name says he loves standing back of that.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
It's the best line ever.

Speaker 4 (22:41):
This guy and he and this guy's name is Jesus
and he looks like Willie Nelson. He's got like an
American flag bandana and long gray hair and a beard,
and his name is Jesus Day And Gordon Takomatsu. I mean,
I guess if it was a Mexican guy his name
was Hey, Sue's Takama would have said it.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
This is a white dude with white hair.

Speaker 4 (23:02):
It's a white dude with white hair called name Jesus,
and Takamatsu won't say his name. Listen.

Speaker 9 (23:08):
Ground squirrel litters tend to arrive seven or eight at
a time.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
I would say it's not good.

Speaker 9 (23:13):
This man who identifies himself with one attention getting name
says he loves interacting with the fluffy rodents. In fact,
he practices tai chi here his audience. But he's concerned
that they are eroding the cliffs. Otherwise they're beautiful to
look at. The reason is they're being fed here and
now they're not afraid of humans at all.

Speaker 4 (23:36):
Right, look at Takamatsu right there like snow white, with
all the animals of the forest beautiful. Look at how
all the animals of the forest are coming to the seat.
And look at his stylishly stretchy middle aged man pan.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
It's like Song of the South.

Speaker 9 (23:52):
Our cameras captured several folks, unclear if they're locals or
visitors feeding the squirrels tip.

Speaker 4 (23:58):
Of the thing. I promise you there's no locals at
the park other than Jesus, the tai Chi Dippy. Okay,
they're all terrists.

Speaker 9 (24:06):
Our cameras captured several folks, unclear if they're locals or
visitors feeding this You're in the grass in the bushes,
there are plastic trays people have left behind with water
or food in them. It's true they make great subject
matter for selfies and memories.

Speaker 3 (24:22):
For the kids.

Speaker 5 (24:23):
They seem to be loving all the attention.

Speaker 9 (24:24):
But if you want to save these cliffs from anymore
than they are. But if you want to save these
cliffs from eroding any more than they are, says Mike Bonlander.
You should heed the signs the city his placed nearby.
Don't feed them. He fears that if things get any worse,
drastic measures may have to be employed.

Speaker 5 (24:45):
They need to do something to control them.

Speaker 2 (24:47):
You don't want to poison them because other animals eat them,
and then they eat the poison.

Speaker 9 (24:52):
And that would be bad for everyone, not just the
whisker twists.

Speaker 2 (24:58):
The scarles ate the boys, and then other animals eat
the squirrels.

Speaker 4 (25:04):
A hawk, well there's no I mean, Pete block mat
Pete twenty four, Pete twenty eight is not gonna make
it all the way to Pallisades Park.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
I'll tell you who's gonna eat them? Carme alone. That's
just came alone. I eat them pesky squirrel.

Speaker 4 (25:21):
No, seriously, though, like who's gonna eat the poison squirrels
other than a hawk?

Speaker 5 (25:26):
You need to do something to control them. You don't
want to poison because other animals eat them, and then
they eat the poison.

Speaker 9 (25:33):
And that would be bad for everyone, not just the
whisker twitchers looking for a handout here on the grass
in Santa Monica, Gordon Tookawatsu NBC four.

Speaker 4 (25:41):
Needs nice whisk or twitcher at the end there, Toka Mox.

Speaker 2 (25:46):
Predators of squirrels include foxes, coyotes. Okay, we're fine with
the coyotes dying. Bob Army Mack. You know, I think
owners of toy dogs and cats would be all right
with the coyotes dying.

Speaker 4 (25:58):
The Turner family is never gonna get over.

Speaker 2 (26:00):
Bobcats, hawks, as you mentioned, owls your favorite animal.

Speaker 4 (26:05):
Excuse me, Bob cats, cats? Where do they hang out
gladstones and they come up to cliff and eat eat the.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
Squirrel Eagles, snakes, coons, and even some domestic animals like
cats and dogs.

Speaker 4 (26:20):
All right, so we can't have them eating a point.

Speaker 2 (26:23):
We did our wedding photos at Palisades Park as a
matter of fact.

Speaker 4 (26:27):
Well you got married in Saint Monica, Yeah, right, reception
at the Cosa d exactly right. I mean that's a
real triangle of cool.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
Matt about that.

Speaker 4 (26:35):
You guys should go over there, feed the squirrels, takes
some pictures.

Speaker 3 (26:38):
I would say it's not good.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
I'd say it's not good.

Speaker 4 (26:42):
It's a great selfie opportunity.

Speaker 3 (26:44):
I would say it's not good.

Speaker 4 (26:45):
I've been Why why do you hang out and tai
Chie with him.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
Then Jesus, I would say, it's not they whoever edited
the the the comments of the lay person in these
did a bang up job. You've got the I would
say it's not good. And then that guy that says
they eat the poison and the animals eat the squirrels
that eat the poison.

Speaker 4 (27:05):
What about the guy? What about the he's you're enjoying
all the interview.

Speaker 2 (27:11):
God, it's a hell of a report, Takamatsu.

Speaker 4 (27:14):
It really is strong, Matt. That's why we brought it
all the way back, all the way back for great
sports talk. So we we will pay attention to see
if the cliff falls, Matt and uh it buries everybody
over there on p H horrible, we will know who
to blame. That Santa Monica incline. Man, you're just gonna
get eaten alive by those squirrels. Buried alive, terrible. I

(27:36):
was buried alive, but I burrowed with the squirrels to safety.

Speaker 2 (27:39):
I may have to Uh, I've been on a k
T L A kick for about a month and a half.
Now I may have to work NBC back.

Speaker 4 (27:45):
Well. My bitterness about the challenge Matt, you know, I don't.
I don't. I don't watch a lot.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
Of NBC news, right, understandable, But that being.

Speaker 4 (27:53):
Said, I do enjoy a good Gordon Tacomatsu and and
even more so Patrick heey oh yeah, some great foot
soldiers at NBC. So thank you from the peacock down
the street in Universal City. We will keep an eye
on these squirrels.

Speaker 3 (28:10):
You know, versus City peak Cock.

Speaker 4 (28:18):
Welcome back, everybody. It's petros and Money Dodgers on deck.
Coming up at six. David Vassa has got Clayton Kershaw
who's coming back over the weekend. We'll talk to David
Vassy in the very next hour. We're live everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app, and make sure you stream the show
there or podcast it later there. The Petrosen Money Show

(28:39):
always available. Not to mention Twitter and Instagram and all
of the platforms that make life so unlivable. All right,
it is now time for the top story of the
day to story of the day.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
Well, obviously, p we were live in the moment yesterday.
We lived it a great audible called by The petros
Money Show to carry, perhaps illegally without permission, the uh they.

Speaker 4 (29:06):
We did yeah, and you know they did, they'd love us.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (29:11):
And you know what else, Matt, we made the right
to sit. Like as far as our break structure and
the way we handled it, it was like the opposite
of the NFL draft. Yeah, I mean we really were
on it. On top that we weren't on the NFL Draft.
We just had some bad luck as far as timing
went with some of the picks. This not the case.

Speaker 2 (29:29):
Same with the last NBA draft as well. Uh two
years ago. Yeah, the Hive Hawk has signed off right
before Heimi Hawk as was, we left.

Speaker 4 (29:36):
It and left in disgrace. We left in disgraced that night.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
Yea, the Lakers selection in Homi Hokis missed them both. However,
before we get to all of that, I don't know,
maybe like hour and a half, two hours, about two
hours ago the big news broke. I believe we both.
I think we both follow the Twitter feed Lake Show.

Speaker 4 (29:57):
Yo. Oh that guy. Yeah, he's the best.

Speaker 2 (29:59):
He he's the best. And I would not have known
because I do not follow these particular podcasts. The incestual
nature of podcasts between athletes where they go on yours
and then you come on mine, and then you're gonna
watch me as a real voyeur. I think this is
Ryan Clark talking to well, breaking the news that something's

(30:25):
not going away, it's coming back. You took a break
from podcasting.

Speaker 3 (30:29):
Why is it important to do it and bring it
back now?

Speaker 8 (30:33):
I'm not a person that run away from anything, you
know what I mean, Like my dad kind of instilled
that you face your problems and you move on from it.
It's there and it's gone. And the reason I took
the hiatus was more so I wanted to get my
body healthy. I wasn't mentally there in the time of
where we were at the team, me dealing with injuries.
I wasn't in a space of being jolly and happy.

(30:55):
And you know, obviously we had topics and guests to
talk with, but it wasn't much for me to talk
just because of where I was at. So now it's
obviously the summer, my downtime from training, focusing on my body.
I did procedures to get ready for this next season
and kind of just want to touch back with my
fan base. It was important for us to kind of
start this back up to just give back to the people.

Speaker 4 (31:16):
Man.

Speaker 8 (31:16):
That's what I always inspired to do, is kind of
get back to the people training.

Speaker 4 (31:20):
You heard it, Pee, I can't. I can't believe that
we existed so long on that podcast Paul George Hiatus
and what they got you doing and what they got.

Speaker 2 (31:30):
You doing training. You know, I just wasn't in the
right place. But then I realized that all these fans
they want podcast.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
Pee.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
Man, he's got to be in that jolly place where
he's going to talk about his injuries. Yeah. You know what,
this last year I made fifty million dollars and guess what,
I got injured again, just like I did the year
before and the year before and the year before. And
that's what I'm here to do. I'm here to face
my problems and tell you how I can demand a
fourth year in a max contract and still get it injured.

(32:00):
But I'm gonna be training and I'm gonna be talking
all my fans. So that's great news. And I do
believe I'm crediting that properly that that was that Ryan
Clark is that? Okay, there we go, So that's the
one he was on. I think tomorrow. Guy that wears
the brooch, Yes, okay, the RC brooch exactly right. As
for the actual top story the day. Beyond that be
big stinking news. Yesterday we did it live in the moment.

(32:24):
The Dallas Mavericks, with a one point eight percent chance
to win the NBA's lottery, do exactly that. The top
three teams, the Washington Wizards, the Utah Jazz, the Hornets.
Hornets slid to four, five and six, a real mfor
of a situation since they what they called, in an
effort to dissuade tanking, flattened the lottery odds. They were

(32:49):
the lottery odds visibly distressed. Yes, at one point twenty
five percent. Now I believe it's fourteen percent for those
worst teams in the end to earn the top pick.
None of them got it. It was a team with
a one point eight percent chance. And I'll tell you
while they celebrated in Dallas as word leaked out of

(33:11):
exactly how it was, the Mavericks ended up with the
top pick. Granted there's a consolation prize. They got the Pope.
You know, the city of Chicago has really been puffing
out its chest the last decade. Yeah, because they got
the Pope. But this is now the second time that
a generational player has been available with the number one
overall selection in the draft, and the Chicago Bulls found

(33:34):
themselves in a coin toss. They lost, of course to
the Lakers in nineteen seventy nine for the right to
draft Magic Johnson, and there was a coin toss that
decided lottery odds slotting between the Mavericks and the Bulls,
and the Mavericks slotted where they were ended up with

(33:54):
Cooper Flag, the Bulls the fourteenth pick. So if the
Bulls are ever involved in a coin toss, no bueno.
They have now lost out on Magic Johnson of course
long ago. And now Cooper Flagg, who the Dallas have announced, Yes,
Stacy King, it's an old lord, Elizabeth, your heart can't
take it moment. Uh. And now the Dallas Mavericks have

(34:16):
announced that they are going to not trade the pick.
This is not going to be sent to Milwaukee for Giannis.
They will draft Cooper Flag. They will figure it out.
And the point of the top story isn't to relive
that moment, but to point out on various social media vehicles, UH,
distributors of information, opinions, and feelings, stop worrying about it.

(34:39):
Laker fans, stop stop trying like it's it's all right
for us US idiots on great sports talk to great
sports talk talk about conspiracy theories and how this was.

Speaker 4 (34:51):
Always playing for our Twitter is different from your Twitter.

Speaker 2 (34:55):
For the Lakers to somehow feel as though they were
slided by this insanity like that Lebron James decided to
take the Twitter and post the nine consecutive tilted head
crying emojis is untoward. It suggests it. Really, it's just
it's petty. There's no reason for him to do that.

(35:18):
The Lakers were on the right side of what was
described as the worst trade in NBA history.

Speaker 4 (35:25):
The league seems to cater to his every whim, so
it's amazing that he would have anything to say about
the league at all.

Speaker 2 (35:32):
Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
is what he posted. You're trying to find yourself and
the conversation is the greatest player that ever played the game.
And to watch the NBA lottery and feel as though
you needed to weigh in, as though there was something

(35:53):
going on behind the scenes and can you believe it?
And this is asinine and absurd and how could they
possibly end up with the numbnumber one pick. Well, it's
funny that Lebron did that pee because as we talked
about the coin toss with the Bulls, maybe Lebron forgot
in his relationship with the league that the last time
this happened when a perennial All NBA player, someone who

(36:16):
was cited as the most versatile and best big man
in the league, Anthony Davis, was sent to the Lakers,
and everybody was upset. Why did they get a d
This isn't fair. They always get the win ball. How
did that end? Because last time I remember the lottery,
as you mentioned, we would sit in those same seats
and we would watch that same stupid show with Mark Tatum,

(36:38):
and this time it was Niganian whoever the hell else
is going to host it? And it was with a
six percent chance to win the NBA Lottery, the ninth
best percentage of the fourteen teams in there. Eight teams
had better percentage odds to win the lottery than the
New Orleans Pelicans, who had just traded Anthony Davis to
the Lakers. And they end up with the number one pick,

(37:01):
And on top of that, they had the Lakers selection
that jumped from the eleven slot to the number four
pick after trading, and I don't believe that. I think
instead his tree was ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Speaker 4 (37:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (37:19):
No, apparently that one he didn't feel like weighing in
on because ad was his Taco Tuesday BFF and for
some reason he decided that the Lakers' fortunes would somehow
be better had the Dallas Mavericks not landed Cooper Flag. Oh,
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (37:33):
The Pelicans got Zion right, They.

Speaker 2 (37:35):
Got Zion exactly. They got Zion Williamson with that number
one pick, and everyone said the same thing back then, Oh,
fixes in the trade a D. So the league has
given to the exactly. So, yeah, this happens, and it's
fine for great sports talk to uh to roll around
in the mud of NBA conspiracy theories. And the thing

(37:56):
is too like that they decided to post it. Well,
you know, if you I think it's a conspiracy, I mean,
here's here it is. This is why they don't show
it on camera because this is how long it took
from the time they turned the lottery machine on for
the Dallas Mavericks and it was the coin toss of
the Bulls and there were eight teams that were still
in play for number one until it came down to

(38:17):
that last ball. That's great. You know what, there's a
way to make those certain balls heavier, so they go
to the top first. And I care what you're showing
me on the TV. I know how this thing works.
I'm no idiot. College an injected ball, exactly right, That's
what it is. It's artificially enhanced balls, neuticles if you will.
Oh no, that led to the Dallas Mavericks. But to

(38:39):
the point that the overall point of this is I'm
rambling on a little bit here because I always do.
Luka Doncic was a thirty point seven rebound, six assist,
one steel performer in the playoffs. In the month of April,
he went thirty one seven seven and one point two steals.
In the month of March thirty one eight rebounds, nine assists.

(39:04):
You won the trade. Whatever the NBA wants to do
on the back side of that for gifting you, Luka Doncic,
by giving what is believed to be a generational player,
someone that Don McClain has waxed poetic about on this
very show multiple times.

Speaker 4 (39:19):
That is their deal.

Speaker 2 (39:20):
The Lakers deal is that they have a guy that
made the All NBA team five times in his first
six years, which is on pace with Magic Johnson, Shaq,
Lebron Jordan, Larry Bird level stuff. Be happy with it.
You can't have everything, you idiots. It's that the Mavericks
weren't destined to fail. For the next tell there is
because of this.

Speaker 4 (39:39):
Don't tell that douche Lake show Yo, he wants everything.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
Hey, podcast p is coming back. They got you doing?

Speaker 4 (39:47):
Lake show Yo wants it all?

Speaker 5 (39:49):
And would they get you doing?

Speaker 4 (39:50):
And he wants it now and would they get you doing?
All right, we got another hour. It is what they
got us doing. David Vassey and quick Answer The Final Hour,
fun Fact and Dead and Alive in our Final Hour,
brought to you by the Marango Casino Resorting Spot.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
Oh, I got an idea. You know what the Maverick
should do it with the number one pick.

Speaker 4 (40:09):
Give it to the Lakers for Lucy. Yeah, I was wrong.
You know here we go. Okay, stay with us, everybody,
