Speaker 3 (01:32):
I believe David Vassy will join us next to answer
Matt's question in the first hour, which is the way
that's clear. David Vasse will answer that question on June
the third, which David Veasse himself made famous. So we
will talk to Dave. We will talk to Dave in
(01:53):
the next hour and Matt can ask him about the
road and the clearness.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
All right, Chris, hey, all right, where do we go
from here?
Speaker 3 (02:03):
We also have some other news as the show goes
on of the not sports variety, just many things happening,
a lot of a lot of strands in the old
Duder's head. But we will start Matt with the word
of the day, his words the word of the day.
Today's word of the day is Summer Tour Stop one
(02:25):
El Segundo, Friday, June thirteenth, and Matt, since we are
headed to El Segundo on June thirteenth, Friday. You're there
right now? Will you hit the Fannies or the Offset
Coffee on the way home the mine.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I'm gonna need to hit something because this place is
pretty empty, so it's not like I'm going to be
able to get any food here.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Fanny ain't open. When you go to that famous go
to that famous pizza place next to the Offset Prime
Pizza whatever it's called.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Is that the one where Lebron's gonna give away the
free pieces?
Speaker 3 (03:00):
No, that's Blaze and there were no free pizzas given away.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Oh did he? He didn't show up after telling everyone
to line up and stand in the correct ninety degree temperature.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
That's even an older story than June the third. For
our fishing theme summer tour event, we want to see
you there. We expect every one of you to be
there with their pole in the water, whether you have
a pole or don't, figuratively or literally. So I thought
it right, Matt, to celebrate or promote another El Segundo
(03:32):
local event coming up this weekend in the Mayberry like
South Bay Refinery and Water Treatment town of Elsagundo, California.
And I don't know, maybe they preferred correct. Maybe you
see a lot of signage or something in town today
at the OTAs so close to the four h five,
(03:54):
make way, Matt for the Gundo Comedy and Barbecue Festival,
jumping us because it's June the fifth through June the eighth. Now, personally,
comedy makes me uncomfortable, but others feel differently, and our
buddy Brad Williams will be there. Love Brad, Caroline Reya
(04:19):
the roundheaded blonde, Oh yeah, Carolin Ray, lots of other
well known people and a bunch of famous pitmasters as well, skilled,
perhaps even more than Don McClain will be selling their meats.
Talk like Big Moke Cason, like Meet Dave and beat
(04:41):
Down Barbecue will be involved, among others comedy and pitmasters
as a show of good faith, Matt, because we want
you and El Segundo next Friday. This is something in
Elsagundo for you this weekend, the Gundo Comedy and Barbecue.
You fast send in the clowns. There's nothing like comedy
(05:05):
and indigestion, feeling like you swallowed a dura flame while
watching somebody bomb on stage in an old refinery town.
Best news is the airport's right down the street. You
want to forget your bad set and fly away. You can,
(05:26):
so we'll see you at the El Segundo or excuse me,
Gundo Comedy and Barbecue fest.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
That is a good community bulletin, board.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Act trying to be helpful.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Matt, Right, you know, good community bulletin.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
We're in Gundo next week or yeah, Friday week from Friday,
that's this week. And if you want to double up
on Elsa Gundo two weeks in a row, you can't, right, Yes, Tim.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
I don't know why I thought about it just now,
but you mentioned else A Gundo A Matt just mentioned
the community. We have like two hundred else A Gundo
Little League T shirts still from like two years ago,
and Kiss FM. Maybe we should bring those out to
the remote and else.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
A Gundo Rock and Bruce Okay World series. Kiss FM
got T shirts for that.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
You didn't know that.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
Oh yeah, there's a large, large box with hundreds of
white T shirts celebrating the Elsa gund Little League World
Series win two years ago, I think three years ago,
with Kiss FM logos everywhere. Our sisters they never gave
them away, No, never gave him away?
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Where would they? Yeah? Why would kiss Who cares? Who
cares about the else? Who cares about elsegun little League?
A outside of like the five days before and after
the story? And B why would kiss FM Megan Trainer
kiss FM care? That's the the Elsagundo little League's not
all about that base.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Those T shirts are beautiful though, guys. Yeah, and we
have had one Petros Money T shirt produced in the
nineteen years we've been a show, the Petros and Money
Madness shirt the two of us playing basketball, the March Madness,
the March Madness that were handed out.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Given away at one of our worst remotes ever. Yes,
and when I said it was one of our worst
remotes ever, Don Martin called me in and yelled at me.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Well, we nearly were a hit. Was nearly put out
on us by an organized crime family that was trying
to have a private meeting.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
With the president of the casino.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
With in the space where we were set.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Our show started a half hour late.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Like we need to be at Well, you can't be
in here, used two's can't be in here's yeah, okay,
Well where's our promo staff? They're out getting high in
the parking lot. That was also strike too.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
They forgot the T shirts too.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
By the way and they forgot the T shirts.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Yeah, that was that left a lot to be desired.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
That was a busily the worst remote, even worse than
a wax on working Pa.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Non working Pa and downy at the BJS or wax Kobe.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
On fitter rowax Kobe was at least kind of funny.
I mean, our foss was so freaked out that the
wax Kobe was melting and had to be pushed into
a hallway. I mean, why why are we here, guys,
it's too hot. You haven't come out here. I got
my guys out here, and now people can't even see
the statue, so they're not gonna come down and check
(08:29):
us out.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
It ended up being a historic night because Kobe it
was his last game ever, right, and then Kobe ended
up having like fifty or something.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
We all remember ridiculous out there.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Yeah, it was a big game, great moment and all that,
and we have the wax Kobe Madame Toussaint story to
tell for the rest of our lives. So I guess
you're right.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
You can't put it in the hallway, guys. I need
it out here. I got I got my guys out.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Ultimately, this means we need T shirts. Yes, we need
T shirts like seven years ago, not yesterday, like seven
years ago. Here's my number number of I'll just.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Recycle those T shirts. I can get a sharpie and
put like pms on.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Great idea, we'll do. Yeah, well, Matt and I will
sign each one, which will make on Petros and Money
team bring them on down, to bring them on down.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
People love them. Number of the day. This thing goes
all over the place. I'm gonna apologize in advance ten plus.
So this is where I started. I read that, I
saw the quotes from a podcast that.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Dion did Dion Sanders, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
And so I start here. Look, it's the coverage over hyped, Yes,
but it was not a dormant, a dead program for
a decade. You had the one year with Coach MacIntyre
with the ten wins, and that was special. But you
gotta go play with it.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Actually played for a Pac ten champion or Pack twelve championship.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
That was a big deal that year.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
It was.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
It was one year prior to that.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Stephen mar Yeah, Gary and the big twelve coach of
the year.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Gary, for this show started his two thousand and five years.
Seven and six was the only other winning season in
the last twenty years besides coach Max twenty sixteen ten
and four season. That's how bad that program was. Mel
Tucker embarrassment. Carl Durrell dead on.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Arrival, actually had a pretty good COVID year.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Yeah, congratulations June the third, Carl, June the third, you
went four and two. A way to go. Dion shows
up and a four and eight season might as well
have been fourteen and zero the way the coverage played out,
Just as Joel following year seven and two in the
Big twelve nine and four overall for Colorado football. His
thirteen wins in two years, the same number Carl Darrel
(10:43):
and melt Tucker had in the previous four nine wins
is the most for a Buff squad since twenty sixteen.
Before that, it was two thousand and two, the last
time they had nine wins. I do not want to
heat praise on Dion, not in the least, but I
do want to put it into context. Applications are through
(11:04):
the roof the last two years. Kids want to go
to football schools.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
I remember that happened at Oregon State when Mike Riley
had success and Oregon State had been dormant for like
fifteen years.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
And then kids start going to Oregon State.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Yeah, no, there was legitimate They had legitimate evidence of
enrollment and more and more people applying because of the
popularity of the football program with Jockquiz Rogers and guys
like that, and this was one hundred times bigger than that.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Petros I went there to recruit his brother Jane, right,
and then someone came up to me and said, you
got to see his brother. I just had another By
the way, I just had another parent over the weekend.
I was chatting with his son graduating from losal Hey,
where's he going? Alabama? Alabama? He is he playing baseball?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
No, he just wants to go Remember the Seagull Brothers.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Yeah, Alabama kids.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
No, they went there from here. They're Jewish guys from
La right, and they went to Tuscalusa because, Yeah, they
wanted to be around a big football prosident.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
He's a guy that's lived in Seal Beach and he's
gonna spend four years in Tuscaloosa. Yeah, he loved it
when he visited it, saw the frat row. I said,
you understand, UAB is ranked higher academically than Alabama.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
It's great school, Mermingham, it's good.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
You want thirty five grand a year out of state
tuition for the one hundred and seventy first ranked national
university that is one hundred spots behind Marquette, And they
want thirty five grand a year, and you're sending your
son from southern California to Tuscaloosa to study there and
(12:43):
earn a degree for four years at about one hundred
and eighty grand maybe two hundred k when you're all
in frat Due's dorm meal plan for the one hundred
seventy first ranked national universe.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Sorry, all right, so you're upset. You're wondering why people
would go to a football school when they're not playing
the foosball, right, Kates.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
Matt, Same thing happened to Village. Every year two or
three kids go to Alabama boys and girls. The girls
want to go because apparently the sororities and some TikTok
Instagram and reality show about making it into a sorority.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
I mean, next thing, you know, I mean Aj mccerrn's
your boyfriend, and you're set for lived.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
They see this stuff in reality shows and TikTok videos.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Next thing, you know, I got to be there. I
got to try to get into this. Oh those hot
sorority chicks bubbling around in their pajamas in front of
the house dancing to a TikTok dance. I mean, come
on now, parents be parents.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
No, it happened to me with Parker's like, I want
to go to TCU. My ass, you're going to TCU.
Bunch of kids that couldn't get into the USC you
got into cal Polly.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
Wait wait wait, TCU is a bunch of kids whouldn't
get into SMU. Let's get it.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
It was a bunch of kids that couldn't get into
you sc there you go. I'm like, you're not going there.
You got into the number one freaking regional university in America.
That's where you're going. What the hell's wrong with you?
Cash it in? You worked hard in school, you got
good grades Alabama.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
You don't they called TCU now too many Californians university.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Yeah, see, you would have been resented Parker. Instead, you're
doing great at Polly.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
Oh wait, you do know how much it cost to
go to SMU or our friend Eric Dickerson went to
school for four hundred thousand dollars seventy g's a year,
eighty thousand dollars out of state over eighty thousand, eighty.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Grand and it costs a lot more when you need
a lawyer up after that sexual assault charge? Whoaz flying?
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Woh where was I? Dion?
Speaker 3 (14:47):
You're talking about this the overall success of the University
of Colorado because they hired Dion Sanders.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
That's fine, Dion. You want to go on your media
tour and you want to take your victory lap because
kids are applying and Boulder's a hot spot again and
on and on. Do it. You deserve it, because it
is kids want to go to Boulder, they want to
be at folsome they want to celebrate football campus.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
If we're talking about kids going somewhere because they couldn't
get into anywhere else, yeah, I mean they're all going
to Boulder because they didn't get into UCLA or.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
Cow And guess what, it probably didn't get into LMU,
Pepperdine or cal Poly either.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
They got an LMU breath.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
That's a good point. They definitely got an LMU. But
do us a favor. Stop relitigating the shadoor Bs. Stop
saying that all of these people made up stories about
how bad he was in meetings about how he It's
not possible that he wasn't unprepared.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
He's earned every ounce of criticism, Yes he has. They
haven't earned every ounce of praise, though they deserve a lot.
They haven't earned all the attention and praise because it's
been too much. But they've also earned every ounce of criticism.
Come in their ways, let that go.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
These are these are people that draft dudes in the
first round that have pending litigation in sexual assault and
domestic violence cases. If you can play football, they're going
to figure out a way to get you on their team.
If they think you can help them, they're going to
draft you. And if you're not a starting caliber quarterback
(16:18):
based on their evaluations of what you did in college,
then you better kill it in the meetings and be
like someone that they really want to have in that
quarterback room and on their roster so they can develop
because they see potential in you. If you go into
a meeting at the combine and in those fifteen minutes,
their impression of you is what an a hole and
(16:38):
your resume in college doesn't line up with a top shelf,
top tier first round graded starting quarterback you're going to slide.
It has nothing to do with people that had an
agenda and are making up ass and that it was ridiculous.
Should he have slid to the fifth round? Probably not.
But nobody nobody wants a backup on their team that's
(17:00):
gonna draw that much attention. If they don't think he's
a starting quarterback, it's not worth it. And that's how
it happens, not because people made up s that he
was behaving badly in the interviews, are performing or didn't
take it serious and wasn't. They're not gonna make that up.
It's not gonna happen. That's that's not how it works.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
But congratulations on the swelling enrollment numbers.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Yes, way to go. That's why they's ten million bucks
a year. Freaking Alabama, Alabama. Have you ever driven from
the Birmingham Airport to Tuscaloosa? Do you have any idea
what that looks like?
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Hey, Matt, it looks like a great college experience for
some people.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
Okay, have you seen the cap of g Amazon, Matt,
Come on, you seen that video they did?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Right?
Speaker 2 (17:44):
No? But I saw the DJs and it was sensation.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
This is my girlfriend from outside of Atlanta, suburban Atlanta.
Her name is Poppy.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Poppy.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
It's oh hell, it's so nice. Hell, Popy, I have
zuber at sex after football games.

rain in June it's gonna burn off, and that's raining outside.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Yeah, it's raining this morning. When I walked the dog.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Yeah, I mean it was right. I just told her
was going to burn off, that you didn't need the blanket.
Speaker 2 (19:08):

Dodgers on deck and Game two of four against the Mets.
Dodgers trying to snap this two game losing streak in
especially frustrating fashion, Lab night as once again the bullpen
and in particular, Tanner Scott let the team down. David

Speaker 3 (20:22):
The home of the Dodgers, is with an inside look
at the Dodgers. This is the vass Report with David Vasse. Well,
David Vassa is with us. There's a weather event in
southern California. Tony Tony Tony lied does rain out here
and he is there at Dodger Stadium, where Ronnie Fossio
(20:43):
says the tarp is out. But we'll get confirmation from
the one and only David Vassa. Spectrum Sportsnet, MLB Network
everywhere and our man on AM five seventy, like Matt said,
brought to you by Service Titan. Dave. What's up with
the weather event?
Speaker 6 (20:59):
Yeah, I mean I saw something earlier today there was
going to be a weather event and the Dodgers grounds
crew was ready for it. It just started to pour. About
forty minutes ago, it stopped and all of a sudden
it started to rain pretty heavy. And that's what's happening
right now. The tart is back on the infield. The
Dodgers have canceled batting practice, but everybody's hopeful they'll get
(21:21):
this team started on time. But kudos to Jordan Lorenz,
the head grounds crew chief here at Dodgers Stadium he
was ready, the tarp was ready, his crew was ready,
and batting practice canceled. So something you don't usually see
here at Dodgers Stadium on June the third.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
June the third, David, Jim, you know what? You walked
right into it? What do you recall? Do you recall
it as well as we do. It's become a holiday
here on the Petros and Money Show, we contend that
it was following the loss to the Braves in the NLCS,
which they had nothing to hang their heads about. They
won one hundred and five games and got dealt a
bs hand on their playoff path to the World Series.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:02):
I remember Max Sure's there tapping out and forcing Waser
Bueller to pitch that game. I remember the Dodgers being
emotionally exhausted after going wire to wire with the Giants
and then having to beat them in five games of
the NLDS. And I remember being in the Braves Truest
Park visiting radio booth when this person called in and
(22:26):
started crying. And I was not in a great mood
that night, and I didn't know what to do with
the guy that was crying. I mean, last night we
had a guy call in from San Diego saying that
him and his daughter were being stocked as well, and
that's the reason why he hadn't called in. So there's
a lot of wacky things that come across my desk.
(22:46):
Doing Dodger Talk.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
Late night, David vasse like a real night ride around there,
talking to all the weirdos.
Speaker 6 (22:53):
And loons, real characters. Well year it is, because that's
Dull the fir David, all right, I.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Know you're emotional, man.
Speaker 6 (23:04):
I know sports helps us out and we get fully invested.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
But you don't need to get that emotional.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
You don't need to get that emotion though.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Now you hand it well do well with people.
Speaker 6 (23:16):
I don't do well with Groman crying, and I don't
do well at funerals or death and all that. That's
why Don Mattingly would always say it had a sinister
smile on my face whenever he brought up death. So
I guess today that a little bit differently, Dave.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
You got to speaking of sinister. A lot of people
feeling that way about Glass now because he just doesn't pitch.
You got an update about Glass now and you talk
to Glass now. We did.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
We talked to Glass now after he threw from flat
ground again, and if you remember, in spring training, the
Dodgers tried to make some tweaks to his delivery to
try to keep him healthy for the full year, and
it seemed like he was all in. He was talking
about me exactly being more athletic, but then he felt
like his velocity wasn't the same, the command wasn't the same,
(24:07):
and it feels like now it's not so much that
he's injured, but he's also trying to go back to
where he was last year when he was an All Star.
Here's what Tyler Glastnow I had to say earlier today.
Speaker 7 (24:19):
Yeah, like not thinking about it. I think being athletic
and having a natural delivery. I think like making changes,
and it's hard to when it is so new. Not
thinking about it is it's kind of impossible just being
so foreign. I guess to where I can, that's maybe
a bit easier to just want, in doubt, be athletic
and kind of make sure the staples there a landing
(24:40):
clothes and being on time and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
I got to take care of a lot of stuff.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
Yes, but in spring training we were all in.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Sorry, I thought that was all.
Speaker 6 (24:49):
In in spring last night was all in. He was he
was all in in spring training and then all of
a sudden things did not go his way the first
few starts, and it feels like he kind of pulled
the rip chord on on that delivery because his shoulder
wasn't feeling great and results were not great.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
I don't mean this to be snarky, seriously, Like this
is a straightforward, honest question. Do you think you know
glass Now is a hell of a pitcher and Tanner
Scott a hell of a pitcher? Is Like do the
Dodgers sometimes just getting their own way, Like they feel
like they've got to do something with every guy that
(25:30):
shows up instead of just saying, hey, this guy was
really good, let's just let him pitch and we don't
need to worry about it.
Speaker 6 (25:37):
Yeah, that's hard to say that because they've done so
well helping guys be their best and lean into what
they do well. But look the Tyler glass Now things.
They're trying to come up with a solution for a
picture that's been hurt basically his entire career, every single season,
So you can't blame them for trying to go outside
(25:57):
the box to try to prevent that it. Unfortunately, he
didn't feel great to him as far as Tanner Scott goes.
You know, I asked him the first day of this
homestand what were the tweaks? Were there any tweaks? And
he really didn't communicate any significant changes. So I think
for Tam Scott, it's more about his confidence is where
(26:19):
he's at mentally, just as much as it is about
the pitching mechanics that he's talking about.
Speaker 3 (26:25):
David vass Our guest at the Real Underscore DV on Twitter.
Nobody does a better job than David Vassay when it
comes to covering the Dodgers. Mookie's back tonight.
Speaker 6 (26:34):
Dave Mookie is back tonight. He is starting at shortstop,
hitting second. And I saw him yesterday. There were no
limitations to what he was able to do. I mean, look,
like I said, it's not even his big toe. It's
a smaller digit on his left foot. They can tape
that up, they can numb it, they can do whatever
they need to do for him to be out there.
(26:54):
He's not going to let you know, his little pinky
toe keep him out of too many games. He's already
missed what four games already. That's that's too many that
he would prefer not to have missed because of this
unfortunate accident.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
It feels like Jeff. This feels like Jeff can't motorcycle.
He wouldn't watch a no damn car.
Speaker 6 (27:16):
I haven't heard too many players break their toes this way.
But you know, things happen that are very unusual in sports.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
As you know, Petro, Freddy Freeman and Mookie running around
in the bathroom.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
What was going on the darkness of night? Always your bathroom. Always.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
They could cut their hand in the garage like Kobe
and be respectable.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
There's that. Or they could do it falling downstairs with
a side of venison like that dude in Colorado, or.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Freak like Tatis. Oh yeah, we.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Were talking about this a little bit earlier, Dave. Do
high cost free agent closers for the Dodgers ever work out?
Have we ever? Can you remember where like they paid
I'm a guy that was already on their team, somebody
that wasn't on their team. We were going through them, Kimberle,
Jeff Shaw, Brandon League, now Tanner Scott. It just seems
(28:10):
like anytime they shell out a bunch of cash for
a dude, in the bullpen. It does not work.
Speaker 6 (28:16):
I think that's the case in the high risk for
any team when you look at it, because it's such
a volatile spot of a team, and relievers are the
most volatile pitcher on your team. And there's a reason
I think we always lose sight of the fact the
reason why these guys are in the bullpen is because
they're failed starters. They weren't starting pitchers. They weren't good
(28:37):
enough to be starters. So there's going to be a
lot more inconsistencies with those guys. But I'm not ready
to pull the ripcord and just basically say Tanner Scott
after three months of his four year contract is done.
It's a mistake, it's a bust. It's not looking good
right now. But you would hope that last year and
(28:58):
half of the last two years ago was not an anomaly.
And I just I'm not ready to pull the ripcord
on Tanner Scott. It's just it's not looking good right now.
But I wouldn't expect this to last.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
David Masse will be there tonight. Who do you got
in the pregame?
Speaker 6 (29:12):
Dame thirty year Major League umpire Brian Gorman who is
kind of like the Mike Pereira for those Apple broadcasts
where they go to him when they were there's a rule.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Question, interesting stuff. David Vassa always with interesting guests. A
fabulous show, Morongo Casino, Dodgers on deck with Tim Kats
coming up at six. Thanks Dave, Thanks guys, talk to

it Prime Pizza.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
I mean, I gotta eat on the run. That's the problem.
I gotta get back down to Long Beach tonight.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
More more quick sir, Hello, PMS listener. Did you know
A M five seventy LA Sports has a wide range
of LA Sports podcasts. There's Rogan and Rodney, that one
is my thing, Dodger Talk with David Vassi, the Dodger
Podcast of record, Clipper Talk without a Musk, follow us
(31:05):
all and many more. Just go to AM five seventy
LA Sports on the iHeartRadio WAP.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
About an hour. Laugh, big thank you to David Vassa
out at Dodger Stadium where the rain is coming down,
the tarps are on the field, and we're out of here.
At six o'clock. Dodger's on deck first pitch at seven.
We are going to be at Rock and Bruce in
Elseigundo Friday, June thirteenth, three to six pm. We'd love
to see you. It is one forty three Main Street,
(31:33):
the corner of Maine and Franklin. It's the first stop
of our six stop summer tour. We love the rock
and blues and El Segundo. We will have Dodger tickets
to give away in a two night get away to
Las Vegas as well give it away outside for a
fishing theme.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Yeah, blues clues. We'll see you there now, Mattuh. You
said you're hungry and you could be lost in the
shadows on the way home through the South Bay because
there's a lightning and tunderstorm. This tarpa's on the field
of Dodger Stadium and maybe you can consider this. McDonald's
(32:12):
announced the new version of the snack Rap. We'll go
on sale July tenth. The snack Rap, perhaps because of
our promotion of it at the Dodger Stadium Suite, is
making her comeback. McDonald's invented the snack rap and introduced
it to the menu nineteen years ago. Matt, when you
(32:34):
and I started the show in twenty oh six. The
main ingredients chicken breast grilled or crispy lettuce, cheese and sauce,
and a soft flower tortilla. Pretty easy snaprack. Snack rap
very popular item on the McDonald's menu. But the company said,
even though it was just chicken breast, lettuce, cheese and
(32:55):
sauce and a soft flower tortilla.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
That's really I mean, it's like a college dorm room.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
It was too complicated to make for their kitchen, too complicated,
too complicated for the kitchens of McDonald's to prepare, So
they abandoned the rap in twenty sixteen here in the US.
But the customers for nine years have bitched and moaned
and they listened, and now they want him back, and
they're bringing him back. They will also help McDonald's compete
(33:22):
with a growing number of rivals who have picked up
on the snack rap theme. Who's got the best snack
raps out there?
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Matt, you tell me who does have the best snack?
Who's got the best chicken nugget in a tortilla with
ranch dressing, lettuce and cheese?
Speaker 3 (33:38):
Popeyes? Luisi in the Kitchen Right introduced its own chicken
raps yesterday, while Burger King and Wendy's have been in
the game since twenty twenty three. So the second Mickey
Deez got out of the game, it looked like, well
not the second, but it looked like others are in
the game, the snack rap game. Because Petro somebody talks
(33:58):
about it at Dodgers Stadium.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
Perhaps perhaps perhaps my ass absolutely for.
Speaker 3 (34:04):
The US comeback. Mickey Dees is offering fewer kinds of
snack wraps to ensure faster service. They used to have
both grilled and fried chicken's option, but now let me guess,
just fried, no for now, for now, and the relaunched
(34:25):
snack wraps or rap snacks will only come in two flavors,
ranch or spicy.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
Is there anything that says? Is there anything better than
American obesity? More than a chicken nugget with shredded cheese
and ranch dressing in a flour TORTI what's wrong with that?
I want my snack wrap.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
The company used to offer additional sauces like honey mustard
and sweet chili, and that got too complex for the
kitchen it did.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
I don't know what to do here.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
You might ask yourself how much these raps will cost
mcdonalder and that what is it?
Speaker 2 (35:17):
What does a chicken nugget and a flower tortilla cost?
Speaker 3 (35:21):
Let's whip on over to the price chart here. McDonald's
is not saying.
Speaker 2 (35:27):
Yeah, because they don't want you to be gobsmacked when
they say it's like four bucks.
Speaker 3 (35:31):
But right now, Burger Kings sells their Royal Crispy rap
for two ninety nine three dollars three bucks? How much
is Popeyes because their chicken is more valuable?
Speaker 2 (35:44):
Right three? Get yourself a box of Dino nuggets, a
pack of Mission tortillas, shred up the iceberg, and buy
the Sargento shredded Mexican cheese. Why doesn't that have to
be Sargento because that's the white trashiest of all the
shredded cheeses. Get you, That's why it's the Mission tortillas
(36:07):
and just put it together. Man.
Speaker 4 (36:11):
Now, McDonald's in their statement said, oh, we heard your
cries for the last nine years. We saw your you
heard Burger stepping on your nuts set. Actually what they
saw was their first quarter sales down nearly four percent
here in twenty twenty five, and a rise at Chick
fil A, Popeyes, Raisin Canes, and Chicken Dave's Hot Chicken.
(36:35):
So they realized, why are we messing around with meat?
We need to go back to chicken.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
People think chicken is healthy, so they eat chicken instead
of burke.
Speaker 3 (36:43):
Well, I mean, chicken is healthy, fried chicken.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
Fried chicken nuggets, with ranch sauce on a riosh bun
that's buttered.
Speaker 3 (36:52):
Yeah, listen, if you use that fried chicken, if you
use like a like a shri racha chili sauce, it's fine,
it's fine, it's good for you.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
What was the I think it was the family guy
Fish and chips. It's the dish that fat people think
is healthy.
Speaker 3 (37:07):
And we all know who invented the snack wrap. It's
not McDonald's. It's Bobby Valentine.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
Bobby Valentine, Angel broadcaster, former angel broadcaster, invented the rap,
invented the snack rap.
Speaker 4 (37:23):
So do you think McDonald's actually has the patent or
they just claim I can't. They just claim to everyone
they clearly can't.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
What is it? It's just a taco.
Speaker 2 (37:32):
It's a chicken nugget and a tortilla.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
Wait a second, Lebron invented taco Tuesdays. Okay, so McDonald's
clearly invented the rap.
Speaker 3 (37:39):
Well, Matt just racially profiled shredded cheese and the lanternet's
going crazy.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
See this is the problem is I've got a family
that watches too much TikTok, and I can't tell you
how many times they jam their stupid phones in my
face and they're like, oh my god.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
Check out this food TikTok.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
Some fat ship dumping a can of horror l on
top of Dino nuggets with shredded cheese.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
That's just how I feed my family of five after
my nurses shift.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
And here's some powdered doughnuts that I drop in here,
and then on top of that, I put in more
chicken nuggets. Oh, and then here's some a block of elveta,
and then I take out the sour cream, and then
I make a ranch shake out of fair Life, pure
Whole milk and Hidden Valley ranch powder. Isn't this a
(38:29):
great TikTok?
Speaker 3 (38:30):
No Chef Medito has a snack wrap seasoning coming out
in the fall promoting.
Speaker 2 (38:35):
What just got an email?
Speaker 4 (38:36):
Congratulations, you guys are endorsing McDonald's new snack wraps for real.
Speaker 2 (38:40):
I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'll eat the hell
out of those.
Speaker 3 (38:44):
Get Bobby Valentine on. We'll be right back with your
final arm of fun fact and your quick hits
