Speaker 4 (01:53):
Headquarters is gonna be a heck of a time. We
always have a great show at the Vans. It's always
a spec moment and we are looking forward to that.
We talked to David Vasse. The lineup is out versus
the Rockies. Mookie Betts batting second at shortstop, ti Oscar
Hernandez with his heavy legs is in right field, Paz
(02:17):
in center and everybody's favorite met and Giant Michael Conforto
left field.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
He's gonna snap out of it. I can feel it.
He's gonna snap off.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
Another deadfish handshake, and he's going to the moon.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
He says, you just Watchno's gonna snap out of this.
It's coming any day now. Just he hits that at
bat three hundred and forty, and everything's gonna turn around.
I can I can sense it.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Things are gonna change. I can feel it.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
We'll see if that lineup is good enough to beat
one of the worst teams in baseball, the Colorado Rockies.
But the Rockies have a better record than the Dodgers
since a certain time in the summer, and that if
you're a Dodger fan and reading articles in April about
how they're going to win one hundred and seventy five
(03:06):
baseball games in a season, you might be a little
bit disappointed at this point. A little bit. I'm not
saying slightly, just a little bit of disappointment. I got
a self report for the word of the day. I
guess Matt because the word of the day, his words,
the word of the day. It's my daughter, Calli's birthday.
(03:30):
She's ten years old.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Happy birthday, Thank you.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
I'll tell her and she I mean, remember when I
when I fell upon kind of inheriting or whatever my lizard,
which was some time ago, maybe four years ago, three
years ago. It's been a while, yeah, it has been
post COVID. But my lizard, Travis McGhee, a bearded dragon.
(03:54):
There's some photos maybe on Instagram. But I've had this
lizard for a while and it's gotten bigger and I
feed it and cared for it like a real a
pet owner, which of course I wasn't familiar with from
some time. But Tim Kates made a terrible prediction around
the time that the lizard came that I would be
growing a ponytail, feathered hair. Ponytail turned into a real
(04:17):
hasher a reptile guy, you know, get get a leather
leather vest, jeorts and.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Start black jeans ten speed.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Yeah, and start being like like my neighbor Ralph and
going to reptile conventions. And unfortunately, my neighbor Ralph went
to a reptile convention and bought a gecko for his family,
and you know, I had to go feed it or whatever.
When he was on vacation not long ago, and it
(04:49):
was it's been like three and a half weeks, maybe
a month. My daughter saw his gecko and just went nuts,
just crazy, just full harassment. I want one of those.
I want one of those and they're not expensive or
so we ended up getting her two crested geckos for
her birthday, for her birthday, and they're upstairs in her room.
(05:11):
So I don't know, like I I think I have
to go buy a pair of black rebox.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
You got three lizards in that now, are gecko's the
ones that you got to be worried about with the salmonella?
Speaker 4 (05:24):
I think all it's like having a chicken, like all
lizards anything like that.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
You've got, you don't you just don't lick them.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Yeah they're yeah they're not. But but yeah there's two.
They're different than the lizard.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
They don't like the geico gecko a little bit.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
Yeah, they have like that shaped head. They are very
they're they're little and young. And we got them at
Augustine's Reptile Shop in in in Slow Meta. Shout out
to Augustine. And so there are now maybe i'll put
a picture up of them with her for today. But
there are now three lizards.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Here now they have to be right like they wouldn't play.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
They're not in the same no, no, no, well that
the bearded dragon needs a much hotter cage, gotcha, So
they don't need the super heat. They just kind of
exist in that way. So anyway, yeah, I am, I'm
a real dork over here. I gotta I gotta buy
about five more Blue Oyster Cult albums.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Right and wait til Fletcher asks for a python. That's next, dude,
I guarantee you.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
I never thought i'd be running a reptile hothouse, Matt,
but thanks to my neighbor Ralph, we now have three lizards.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Got going.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Ralph's got a bearded dragon that I feed all the time.
And he's got it's a different kind of gecko. I
don't know what kind of gecko it is.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
So he doesn't have like an iguana.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
No, he has a gigantic aquarium like a saltwater aquariumster
No gila monster and no monitor lizards okay, which could
eat a man because they get that in some places
if there's a if there's no predators to get him.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Uh So, anyway, yes, does he have a komodo dragon.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
That's a monitor lizard.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
No, okay, don Matt, duh. I didn't think I'd be
doing a radio show a lizard, guy.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
I didn't know.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I mean, you know, hey, a kimono dragons, a monolizy idiot.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Well, we just didn't was repeating. If I didn't say that,
I would be repeating ourselves.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
That is a monitor lizard, you moron.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
He's a running back and a tailback. Don't you know?
Speaker 2 (07:28):
That's what the song got Zilla by Blueish You cults about,
you idiot?
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Is it? I haven't gotten that album yet, you know,
I'm kind of new to this.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
I don't know. I think it's about Japanese imperialism, to
be honest.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
With Okay, well, the bearded dragons are from Australia. Oh
cry right, it's an Australian lizard. Maybe it'll be a
tarantula that you get next. No, I know that's gross,
that's disgusting. I'm sitting here digging in worm in worm jars,
feeding my lizard and they're like, no, no, no, please.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
God, no God, no box of maggots. You've got it
five bucks here.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
They're not maggots there dare you super worms, you bastard.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
It's time for the number of the day.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Here's my number number of the day. Remember the day
is twenty five. You knew we would get to it.
P it posted on the La Times today Terry Castleman
and Shelby grad combined to post the La Times. As
the headline reads, these are the worst freeways in Southern
California La Times rankings.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Well that with the in light of the Baxter story
that you that you debunked early in the show. Uh,
in light of that and what we heard from David Vass,
is this a reliable report?
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Well, I'm gonna say no. I'm going to say no
that it's a bad day for the LA Times.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Here are there four metrics? Average speed, delays, lost productivity
and fatal crashes. Are the four metrics they used in
determining the twenty five worst freeways in Southern California to
start the twenty five twenty four Basically what they listed
as the best freeways. I don't need to hear about
(09:15):
the two sixty one, the ninety, the two forty one,
or the one to twenty six being great freeways. No,
s okay, the ninety isn't even a freeway you get
reprieved from the disaster that is the four h five.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Yeah, you're just going.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
About off l well, Jerry's Deli's that doesn't count. I
don't want to hear. But just get get rid of that.
This is my main issue. They well, let's just go
out straight to the top. They declared that the ten
Freeway is the worst freeway in southern California. They have
(09:51):
the slowest average speed fifty two miles an hour.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
It is the worst for delays, they say, scaled for
total vehicle mile. It has the eighth worst lost productivity
score and the most fatal crashes per length of the road.
That is how the ten.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
I would imagine you are a believer in the fural
fever being the worst.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
Well, the foural fever comes in as the third worst.
Some you what second the six oh five?
Speaker 3 (10:21):
What?
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Yes, the six to oh five they said, which clearly
they don't I understand. When you hit the six oh
five at the two ten, you're gonna get about five
to seven miles of eighty miles an hour, and then
all of a sudden you're gonna hit that Rose Hills
and Whittier's creeping up, and it's gonna be a mother
(10:44):
scratcher and a double middle finger to your face until
you get to the five. I get that. But as
soon as you get to the five once again, it's
open all the way until the four oh five. You
do not have free way death for one one hundred
percent of its existence. There are reprieves that can allow
(11:04):
you to catch your sanity moments of peace.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
You're arguing for the five.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
The five freeway is absolute traffic death from the one
thirty four all the way past the six oh five.
You gotta get damn near the fifty seven before you're
getting any release from the five. I mean it is
twenty five to thirty miles of f u mother f fer.
(11:33):
You're not moving, And they have it listed p at
at ten no at fifteen fifteen. Worst freeway in southern
California is the five?
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Well are now? They are?
Speaker 4 (11:44):
They like factoring in like Kettleman City or like parts
of the five that no one's on.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
That's exactly what they're doing. P They are factoring in
all one hundred and thirty three miles. Oh, come on
of Santa Clarita to San Clemente and it's not that's
that's not the five. If you're gonna if you're the
Los Angeles Times and not the Southern California Times, we
need to be talking about the greater about most the
majority of it should be La County, you know, and
(12:12):
maybe some North Orange County can be mixed in there
as well, of which the five is a civic failure.
And the idea that you're gonna mix in the eight
lanes wide once you hit Mission Viejo to San Clementy
where there's never traffic because it's eight lanes wide, it's
just not a fair score. It's a poor, poor job
(12:34):
by Terry Castleman and Shelby Grad to do a great
injustice to those because it is probably the most traveled
freeway along with the four H five here in the
greater LA area. And I would imagine a lot of
people that have to wear that five day in and
day out are mighty upset seeing it where it is.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Today, bad day for the Times, Matt bad day. Thank goodness,
the Petrosen money shows here to set everything straight right.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
A real trustworthy news sources.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
They got Sandy tweeting about politics. You know, it's like dude,
do the high school stuff, Sandy, the games are going.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
On, Come on, get the kids something.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
They got the freeways messed up. Baxter is like a
just a persona non gratamus there saying seventh.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
They say the seven to ten is worse than the five,
that the fifty seven is worse than the five, that
the sixty is worse than the five.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
They have a wrong the wrong metric system. Matt the
rock they do.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Roddy, This is the song of the Day.

for our final event of the summer, and right now
it is time for the top story of the day,
Top Story of.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
The well, a pair of stories from the grid iron
p both amateur and professional ranks, and how they tie together.
As the Dodgers lost last night in an effort to
keep the Serenity Brothers alive for at least another day,
instead of barking about miss managed outfield play and a
(16:03):
two for twenty stretch in the contest, let's focus on
some football here, because there's a pair of stories today
that tie in with one another, that fly in the
face of the narrative, if you will, that is being
bound off.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Like you got a pair.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Here in town. We got two teams. The Chargers have
Justin Herbert, the Rams have Matthew Stafford. They're both in
great shape. The Chargers maybe in a bit of a
better position. Herbert, ten years younger than Stafford, isn't dealing
with recurring shoulder, back and neck injuries. But Matthew Stafford
is one of the best quarterbacks in the league. He's
nails in the playoffs. He won a Super Bowl for
the Rams. So again, both in great shape, not looking
(16:46):
set for now, and even in the case of thirty
seven year old Stafford with his new three year deal,
they are set for the immediate and even three years
in the world of quarterbacking, you could say is the
foreseeable future. The Raiders are taking a shot. They're rolling
the dice on someone that their head coach knows very
well Pete Carroll Gino Smith after he shocked the league
when Pete named him the starter in Seattle and then
(17:09):
went on to post a Pro Bowl caliber season throwing
for over four thousand yards and thirty plus touchdowns. It
cost the Raiders a third rounder and committing to three
years one hundred and six million bucks to have him
for his age thirty five, thirty six, and thirty seven seasons.
Quarterbacks are hard to find. They are paid a premium
in both high draft picks that are spent on them
(17:32):
and the contracts that they receive, and sometimes those two
don't line up. Rock Purdy was the absolute, literal, lowest
possible draft pick you could invest in a player mister irrelevant,
and now he's making fifty three million bucks a year.
It can work out that way, like it did with
him or undrafted Tony Romo. It can also work out
with Joe Burrow and Josh Allen and Justin Herbert being
(17:53):
top ten picks. It can be a conundrum of inconsistency,
as is the case of Tua Tongue of Iloa, Kyler Murray,
guys whose teams weren't completely sure of when it came
to be extension time, but like the idea of having
them around at a premium price. So here's a couple
hundred million bucks, because that's better than finding yourself in
(18:17):
the quarterback wilderness, like the Steelers currently live in. Kenny Pickett,
Mason Rudolph, Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers, the Jets Zach Wilson,
Mike White, Joe Flacco, Aaron Rodgers justin fields. Of course,
it leads to well, the most memorable quarterbacks are the
franchise changers, the faces of the franchise. But really the
(18:39):
other famous ones are the high picked busts for the
teams that draft them. Taken in the top ten, fans
immediately rushed to the website or the team store to
buy the jerseys with the names Trubisky or Lance or
Daniel Jones or Josh Rosen or Jake Locker on the back,
(19:00):
only to have them at the goodwill within two to
three years. And look, teams are going to take swings.
They're going to take swings, especially now that the contracts
are locked. You can absorb a hit if you take
one and miss and move on, like the Cardinals did
a half decade ago with Josh Rosen and the very
(19:21):
next year took Kyler Murray. It is not what it
used to be when the number one pick or a
top ten pick become the richest players in the league
the moment they're drafted. So today there has become a
referendum to some degree on a particular style of signal
callers and how you should go about finding them or
(19:42):
how not to go about finding them. It stems from
the Anthony Richardson benching in favor of Daniel Jones.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Oh dude, it's like where the McAfee show today.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Yeah, right, the football universe is centered on Indianapolis and
how badly it was went wrong for that front office
and Shane Steichen former Chargers offensive coordinator. Chris Ballard, their
general manager, widely respected and liked throughout the league. He
was the number two in Kansas City forever when they
(20:15):
drafted all those big players that helped create the Super
Bowl run that they're on right now. So both guys
liked very much. I can considered a great offensive coach.
He's the guy that built that offense around Jalen Hurts
and found all that success in Philadelphia. But it worked.
It did not work with Anthony Richardson. So people are saying, hey,
(20:36):
this is a tail of why you don't take players
that haven't started a bunch of games in college. And
that's sort of the headline. Experience matters. Bo Nicks sixty
one starts well. Josh Allen started twenty five games. Drake
May started twenty six games. Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow
started twenty eight games. Yes, bow Nick started six one,
(21:00):
Jayden Daniels started fifty one. Justin Herbert started forty four.
There the point is, there's no rhyme or reason to
why some of these guys succeed and others don't.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
You can there's a situational aspect as well. I mean, right,
look at all the guys that have had success. Gino
Smith going somewhere else, Sam varn Team going somewhere else,
Bryce Young throwing on a scrap heap, gets a different
coach and starts playing with a little bit more confidence.
I mean, uh, Baker, everybody wants to write a script
(21:31):
for how this stuff is supposed to go because they
want to be right when they said that somebody's going
to be a generational player, and that's just not how
football is. Football is very circumstantial, and all these guys
are great and have great potential, and there's always a
reason something didn't work out. And sometimes yeah, that guy
was always going to be a bust anywhere, but sometimes
(21:53):
you just don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
No, that's it's exactly right. It's not just the player,
it's the coach. It's look what Andy Reid did with
Alex Smith, what he'said. Who knows if Patrick Mahomes was
Patrick Mahomes With that, Andy Reid arguably the best offensive
play caller in the history of the league as his
head coach for seven consecutive years with no shift whatsoever.
I mean, even when Chris Ballard took Anthony Richardson, he said, quote,
(22:17):
we're going to take a shot on him. They recognize
the gamble, but the guy is huge, he's got a
monster arm, he's lightning fast, and you hope you hit
the home run, You take the ceiling player, and that's
typically what people are gonna do. You take a mac
Jones and you know the chances of him being the
best or the second best, or maybe even the third
best quarterback and your division are long shots because of
(22:39):
the limited athletic profile. There's just a built in ceiling
and teams don't like taking swings on those players. Mahomes
was just so to say, oh, this is gonna shift
from traits based drafting. Mahomes was drafted on traits, a
gigantic arm, extending plays with his feet. Josh Allen and
Justin Herbert were drafted because they are freaking Greek gods
(23:03):
in statures, six foot six, two hundred and forty pounds
of cannons for arms. I mean you called Herbert's games
when he was at Oregon. He barely threw was don't
turn the ball over, run when you got to and
protect the ball at all. Caught, he ran for more
yards than he passed four in the Rose Bowl. It's
just they were drafted on potential and ceiling. That is
(23:23):
what quarterbacks typically are always drafted on. Drake May has
built the same as those two and coming out and
a class with Jayden Daniels and Caleb Williams. There were
some that said, ay, he's the red flag, twenty six
starts not enough, and then there were others that said, oh,
he's the best of the three, that Williams the concerns
(23:44):
about the locker room, that Daniels is too slender and
a serious injury risk, and that may was the next
Josh Allen. You want to build a rund, you can
make whatever narrative you want. And then of course you
got the a hole Sean Payton, who's already talking about
other teams players because he's a complete a hole and
that's what he does, saying that he always had doubts
about Caleb Williams because of his processing speed, and that
(24:07):
he has his exclusive formula for wayne negative plays in
college that informs his evaluations, and that William's negative formula
number was too high. It was higher than bo Nicks.
Speaker 4 (24:18):
With all due respect to Sean Payton, who does rev
you the wrong way, I don't know the man I
would trust his opinion, you know, I mean he does
have certainly, I mean he does have an educated opinion.
But all these guys do, and you know, it's it's
it's a real crap. Shoot, I mean just to go
way back in time. I mean, we couldn't beat Cad McNown.
(24:43):
I mean, no one could beat Kate McNown. He won
like twenty one games straight. He was he was a magician.
I would have never I would have drafted that guy
four hundred times. He was spurgatory, right, you know what
I mean? I mean I played against watching on the field. Well,
I mean he was absolutely magic and it didn't work
(25:04):
out for him one way or.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
To the worst possible place he could have. I think
the point being to say that teams are going to
draft quarterbacks a certain way, or they're going to weigh
certain things, and they're going to move on from traits
because it looks like Richardson isn't going to work out.
The Trey Lance is now on his third team. Yeah.
(25:27):
Next year, Lenora Sellers at six foot four, two hundred
and forty pounds in a four to four to forty
is going to be drafted in the top five. Wow.
Dev arch Manning has a good season after starting at
one year for one year at Texas. He's going to
be drafted number one overall and he's got traits and
he will have twelve or four thirteen starts or whatever
(25:47):
it might be.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
He's half as good as they say is he's going
to get drafted.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
That's that's just that's what's going to happen. The fact
that Anthony Richardson didn't work out, I would I would
imagine if you pulled the thirty one other general managers
in the league and ask them about the situation surrounding
the Colts and taking Richardson at number four, they would
all say the same thing. Yeah, I could see it
didn't work out, but made sense. Guy's huge, he's fast,
got a big arm, made some big plays at Florida
(26:12):
and won some game, so sure, why the hell not.
They're gonna keep drafting him because there's just not enough
to go around, which means some guys and some teams
are gonna bust out because they're gonna constantly be chasing.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
It, so they'll get drafted. But you're not as likely
to stick.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Or maybe you don't get drafted, or you get drafted
two hundred and fifty six though overall, and you find
yourself with a fifty three million dollars a year contract,
who the hell knows?
Speaker 4 (26:38):
Right, That's how I feel about it, which is why
I sleep through the offseason, talk about film the water.
We'll be right back with more Petros and money with
your Dead and a live guy Birthday of the Day,
the ever.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Let so so.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
That guy's gonna start from the Giants, the worst draft
pick of all time?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
No, Daniel Jones took his job.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
Well, that's what I'm saying. The guy from the Giants
is going to start for the Colts. He was the
worst draft pick of all time.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Yes, with the I'm so confused look on his face,
the perennial of why I look so confused look?
Speaker 3 (27:11):

Speaker 3 (28:47):
Matt's got the Dead Guy Birthday of the Day.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Yeah, our guy real sliding doors, what if? What could
have been? Butterfly effect kind of moment authored by our
dead guy Birthday of the day. Bernard Baruch, one of
the most important Americans during some of the most trying
times of our nation's history, whose name I would suggest
and feel pretty confident saying, is likely not known by
(29:12):
I'll go ninety five percent of sitting congressmen and women.
Yet what he chased world peace. What he walked away
from millions and millions of dollars at the time on
Wall Street because the President the nation called him into
service in order to streamline the economic portion of our
participation in both WW one and then WW two. Born
(29:37):
in Camden, South Carolina, Jewish parents mom physician, dad surgeon,
so big brain gens in Bernie moved to the big
town when he was a kid, went to City College
in New York, became a broker for AA Houseman and Company.
And he was good, really good, and got good fast.
By his mid twenties, he had made enough on his
commissions to buy his own seat on the New York
(29:59):
Stock Exchange. Those cost about nineteen grand, then almost a
million dollars in today's money. And he was quick to
recognize that Hawaii had a burgeoning sugar market, and that
is how he amassed his fortune with it. He founded
the Intercontinental Rubber Company. He dominated the rubber market.
Speaker 4 (30:18):
Not the mixed plate market that was also burgeoning in
the Hawaii area.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
Back then, you know, I think somebody was already onto that,
and he's like, damn, I'm too late. I missed the mixplate,
but I'm going to be early on sugar. At thirty
three p he was known as the lone Wolf of
Wall Street. That was his nickname. Everybody wanted a piece
of him, tried to hire him Rockefeller, Peabody, Guggenheim, but
he was solo all the way. And in nineteen sixteen
(30:44):
Woodrow Wilson rings him up and says, I need you
to run the Advisory Committee and the Council of National Defense.
He became the chairman of the War Industries Board. He
managed the US economic mobilization during World War One. He
was our representative at the Paris Peace Conference, and he
pleaded with both France and Britain to ease up on
(31:06):
the reparations demanded of Germany, saying, make this cooperative instead
of punitive. But they did not listen, and of course
that gave birth to Nazism and the rise of Hitler.
From that catastrophic mistake, he continued to advise and work
for the government while continuing to make millions on Wall Street.
He sounded the alarm of the market crash. He got out,
but only a select you listened. World War two rolls around.
(31:30):
Roosevelt appoints him as Director of the Office of War Mobilization,
and he came up with the work or fight bill.
Either you were going to serve in the armed forces
and you were going to go fight, or you were
going to work for the country in an industry that
was producing what was needed to win the war. Nobody
got a pass.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
What about the podcasters.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Podcasters were exiled to Canada, Craneland, and Iceland.
Speaker 4 (31:55):
There was no podcasting.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
No podcasting. What our man Baruch built was a manufacturing
process that cut the time to produce tanks, bombers, all
the war supplies by two years, catching Hitler by surprise.
And also he insisted Roosevelt, surprise, we got tanks two
years before you thought we had him. He insisted that
(32:19):
Roosevelt adopt the rehabilitation program for injured soldiers. That set
the course for the VA to take care of our
men and women when they came home. He and Churchill
were best friends. They would stay each other's homes when
visiting the UK or the US. And how about this
One p after the atomic bomb end of the war,
President Truman appointed Baruk as our US representative to the
UN's Atomic Energy Commission, and he presented his Baruk plan.
(32:43):
He said, we'll get rid of all our nukes. Let's
start an international body that controls all of the uranium
in the world, all of the atomic energy. Will build
nuclear energy facilities across the world. Of the uranium, right,
none of the exactly the bombs, end of the sun.
(33:03):
That's basically what Baruk did. He said, none of it
would be used for weapons. Everybody was on board, China
was on board, everyone except for the freaking commies. Stalin
veto power on the Security Council, he road blocked it
and upset Baruk resigned from the Commission, and at that moment,
the Cold War was born. The nuclear arms race was on.
(33:26):
And that was that. Baruk gave a bunch of his
money away, most of it away to a bunch of
higher learning institutions, Barok College. I did not know. I'd
never heard of it, but it came thanks to his funding.
Twenty thousand students at Barok College. It is the senior
college in the City University of New York system. He
died at ninety four in nineteen sixty five. Bernard Baruk, Wow,
(33:48):
how about that this week generation.
Speaker 4 (33:51):
This guy's a military star too. I think he's even
older than the greatest. Is considerably beating out the case
of real estate. Peter Gallagher, you know how much we
love getting nailed by the king. Around here we are
and my daughter CALLI Happy birthday. Now she's we have
(34:11):
to go to South Korea. I could not resist June
Jin forty five years old today. Maybe one day, Hey
Song Kim will come off the injured list and we'll
have a Korean and the lineup to celebrate. But until then,
(34:31):
June Jin, a rapper from Soul born a bastard raised
by a grandmother and his father's third wife, eventually did
not because he's one of the first generation boy bands.
That was before they built the entertainment fetus bladder factories
(34:54):
all over Korea. South Korea. He auditioned for a boy
band sin Hua in nineteen ninety eight, him and five
other dudes, just like the Seattle seven, Me and six
other guys. They have way over a dozen albums. Shinhua,
(35:17):
they're still going. Now here's where he's just like Baruk.
They took a four year hiatus so the guys can
do their mandatory military service.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
Okay, there we go South Korea inscription for all.
Speaker 4 (35:29):
I don't know if they were able to get some
tanks to the front earlier, but.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Well damnse you might look a little different now, wouldn't they.
Speaker 4 (35:38):
Jin Chin went solo in two thousand and six, but
he remained with the band as well. There's a lot
of TV stuff in movies. Been married five years. Looks
like shin Hua doesn't have it as much momentum, but
they are the longest running Korean boy band in existence,
the first generation of k pop, like the Korean New Kids.
Speaker 2 (36:02):
I was just gonna say, so, I guess that would
be NKOTV. Right.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
Well yeah, but I mean, you know, what was the
Jackson five? You know what was true?
Speaker 2 (36:09):
What the new edition?
Speaker 3 (36:10):
What were the drifters? You know?
Speaker 4 (36:12):
I mean you can go the platters there, you can
go way back. But yeah, as far as like they
didn't wear big jeans and do hip hop moves, right,
but like you're saying, yeah, Backstreet Boys, Luca Doncicic's favorite band.
I mean, I think the K pop stuff is inspired
more by your new kids in Backstreet than the the
(36:33):
the Cherrelle Platters.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
Yeah yeah, all right, Matt. We do have some uh
some titles.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Okay, are you ready? Song titles? Here we go.
Speaker 3 (36:42):
Tim has the uh yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
What's the name of the band again? Shinhuah, shinhuah.
Speaker 4 (36:48):
Well, the guy's name is jun Jin. So I've used
some TV stuff. He's done emmon, Oh.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
I got you? Okay, so he yeah, that's that's true.
I guess these guys aren't just uh, come on stars
they get on the TV.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
These are dynamic people.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
Multi media brands, if you will.
Speaker 3 (37:02):
Let's go to the beach.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
Let's go to the beach. I'm gonna go crickets.
Speaker 3 (37:06):
Oh, come on, you live on a beach.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
I think you were trying to patronize me with that one.
Speaker 4 (37:12):
Take it for granted, Huh, you wouldn't if you lived
in Menafee like Audie Murphy cooking The Birth of a
Cooking King. Yes, I'm not trying to Jerrymander here, Matt,
but this one also reminded me of a of a
(37:32):
show idea that you often pitched on the show.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
Okay, couple athletes village that is multiple horns, Yeah, telling
you to hell with big brother Matt wand the Olympic Village.

half years to figure it out.

Speaker 2 (37:58):
The Chinese vacated.
Speaker 4 (38:00):

Speaker 2 (02:29):
He says, you just Watchno's gonna snap out of this.
It's coming any day now. Just he hits that at
bat three hundred and forty, and everything's gonna turn around.
I can I can sense it.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Things are gonna change. I can feel it.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
We'll see if that lineup is good enough to beat
one of the worst teams in baseball, the Colorado Rockies.
But the Rockies have a better record than the Dodgers
since a certain time in the summer, and that if
you're a Dodger fan and reading articles in April about
how they're going to win one hundred and seventy five
(03:06):
baseball games in a season, you might be a little
bit disappointed at this point. A little bit. I'm not
saying slightly, just a little bit of disappointment. I got
a self report for the word of the day. I
guess Matt because the word of the day, his words,
the word of the day. It's my daughter, Calli's birthday.
(03:30):
She's ten years old.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Happy birthday, Thank you.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
I'll tell her and she I mean, remember when I
when I fell upon kind of inheriting or whatever my lizard,
which was some time ago, maybe four years ago, three
years ago. It's been a while, yeah, it has been
post COVID. But my lizard, Travis McGhee, a bearded dragon.
(03:54):
There's some photos maybe on Instagram. But I've had this
lizard for a while and it's gotten bigger and I
feed it and cared for it like a real a
pet owner, which of course I wasn't familiar with from
some time. But Tim Kates made a terrible prediction around
the time that the lizard came that I would be
growing a ponytail, feathered hair. Ponytail turned into a real
(04:17):
hasher a reptile guy, you know, get get a leather
leather vest, jeorts and.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Start black jeans ten speed.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Yeah, and start being like like my neighbor Ralph and
going to reptile conventions. And unfortunately, my neighbor Ralph went
to a reptile convention and bought a gecko for his family,
and you know, I had to go feed it or whatever.
When he was on vacation not long ago, and it
(04:49):
was it's been like three and a half weeks, maybe
a month. My daughter saw his gecko and just went nuts,
just crazy, just full harassment. I want one of those.
I want one of those and they're not expensive or
so we ended up getting her two crested geckos for
her birthday, for her birthday, and they're upstairs in her room.
(05:11):
So I don't know, like I I think I have
to go buy a pair of black rebox.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
You got three lizards in that now, are gecko's the
ones that you got to be worried about with the salmonella?
Speaker 4 (05:24):
I think all it's like having a chicken, like all
lizards anything like that.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
You've got, you don't you just don't lick them.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Yeah they're yeah they're not. But but yeah there's two.
They're different than the lizard.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
They don't like the geico gecko a little bit.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
Yeah, they have like that shaped head. They are very
they're they're little and young. And we got them at
Augustine's Reptile Shop in in in Slow Meta. Shout out
to Augustine. And so there are now maybe i'll put
a picture up of them with her for today. But
there are now three lizards.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Here now they have to be right like they wouldn't play.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
They're not in the same no, no, no, well that
the bearded dragon needs a much hotter cage, gotcha, So
they don't need the super heat. They just kind of
exist in that way. So anyway, yeah, I am, I'm
a real dork over here. I gotta I gotta buy
about five more Blue Oyster Cult albums.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Right and wait til Fletcher asks for a python. That's next, dude,
I guarantee you.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
I never thought i'd be running a reptile hothouse, Matt,
but thanks to my neighbor Ralph, we now have three lizards.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Got going.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Ralph's got a bearded dragon that I feed all the time.
And he's got it's a different kind of gecko. I
don't know what kind of gecko it is.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
So he doesn't have like an iguana.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
No, he has a gigantic aquarium like a saltwater aquariumster
No gila monster and no monitor lizards okay, which could
eat a man because they get that in some places
if there's a if there's no predators to get him.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Uh So, anyway, yes, does he have a komodo dragon.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
That's a monitor lizard.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
No, okay, don Matt, duh. I didn't think I'd be
doing a radio show a lizard, guy.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
I didn't know.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I mean, you know, hey, a kimono dragons, a monolizy idiot.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Well, we just didn't was repeating. If I didn't say that,
I would be repeating ourselves.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
That is a monitor lizard, you moron.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
He's a running back and a tailback. Don't you know?
Speaker 2 (07:28):
That's what the song got Zilla by Blueish You cults about,
you idiot?
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Is it? I haven't gotten that album yet, you know,
I'm kind of new to this.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
I don't know. I think it's about Japanese imperialism, to
be honest.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
With Okay, well, the bearded dragons are from Australia. Oh
cry right, it's an Australian lizard. Maybe it'll be a
tarantula that you get next. No, I know that's gross,
that's disgusting. I'm sitting here digging in worm in worm jars,
feeding my lizard and they're like, no, no, no, please.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
God, no God, no box of maggots. You've got it
five bucks here.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
They're not maggots there dare you super worms, you bastard.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
It's time for the number of the day.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Here's my number number of the day. Remember the day
is twenty five. You knew we would get to it.
P it posted on the La Times today Terry Castleman
and Shelby grad combined to post the La Times. As
the headline reads, these are the worst freeways in Southern
California La Times rankings.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Well that with the in light of the Baxter story
that you that you debunked early in the show. Uh,
in light of that and what we heard from David Vass,
is this a reliable report?
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Well, I'm gonna say no. I'm going to say no
that it's a bad day for the LA Times.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Here are there four metrics? Average speed, delays, lost productivity
and fatal crashes. Are the four metrics they used in
determining the twenty five worst freeways in Southern California to
start the twenty five twenty four Basically what they listed
as the best freeways. I don't need to hear about
(09:15):
the two sixty one, the ninety, the two forty one,
or the one to twenty six being great freeways. No,
s okay, the ninety isn't even a freeway you get
reprieved from the disaster that is the four h five.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Yeah, you're just going.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
About off l well, Jerry's Deli's that doesn't count. I
don't want to hear. But just get get rid of that.
This is my main issue. They well, let's just go
out straight to the top. They declared that the ten
Freeway is the worst freeway in southern California. They have
(09:51):
the slowest average speed fifty two miles an hour.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
It is the worst for delays, they say, scaled for
total vehicle mile. It has the eighth worst lost productivity
score and the most fatal crashes per length of the road.
That is how the ten.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
I would imagine you are a believer in the fural
fever being the worst.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
Well, the foural fever comes in as the third worst.
Some you what second the six oh five?
Speaker 3 (10:21):
What?
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Yes, the six to oh five they said, which clearly
they don't I understand. When you hit the six oh
five at the two ten, you're gonna get about five
to seven miles of eighty miles an hour, and then
all of a sudden you're gonna hit that Rose Hills
and Whittier's creeping up, and it's gonna be a mother
(10:44):
scratcher and a double middle finger to your face until
you get to the five. I get that. But as
soon as you get to the five once again, it's
open all the way until the four oh five. You
do not have free way death for one one hundred
percent of its existence. There are reprieves that can allow
(11:04):
you to catch your sanity moments of peace.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
You're arguing for the five.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
The five freeway is absolute traffic death from the one
thirty four all the way past the six oh five.
You gotta get damn near the fifty seven before you're
getting any release from the five. I mean it is
twenty five to thirty miles of f u mother f fer.
(11:33):
You're not moving, And they have it listed p at
at ten no at fifteen fifteen. Worst freeway in southern
California is the five?
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Well are now? They are?
Speaker 4 (11:44):
They like factoring in like Kettleman City or like parts
of the five that no one's on.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
That's exactly what they're doing. P They are factoring in
all one hundred and thirty three miles. Oh, come on
of Santa Clarita to San Clemente and it's not that's
that's not the five. If you're gonna if you're the
Los Angeles Times and not the Southern California Times, we
need to be talking about the greater about most the
majority of it should be La County, you know, and
(12:12):
maybe some North Orange County can be mixed in there
as well, of which the five is a civic failure.
And the idea that you're gonna mix in the eight
lanes wide once you hit Mission Viejo to San Clementy
where there's never traffic because it's eight lanes wide, it's
just not a fair score. It's a poor, poor job
(12:34):
by Terry Castleman and Shelby Grad to do a great
injustice to those because it is probably the most traveled
freeway along with the four H five here in the
greater LA area. And I would imagine a lot of
people that have to wear that five day in and
day out are mighty upset seeing it where it is.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Today, bad day for the Times, Matt bad day. Thank goodness,
the Petrosen money shows here to set everything straight right.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
A real trustworthy news sources.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
They got Sandy tweeting about politics. You know, it's like dude,
do the high school stuff, Sandy, the games are going.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
On, Come on, get the kids something.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
They got the freeways messed up. Baxter is like a
just a persona non gratamus there saying seventh.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
They say the seven to ten is worse than the five,
that the fifty seven is worse than the five, that
the sixty is worse than the five.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
They have a wrong the wrong metric system. Matt the
rock they do.

for our final event of the summer, and right now
it is time for the top story of the day,
Top Story of.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
The well, a pair of stories from the grid iron
p both amateur and professional ranks, and how they tie together.
As the Dodgers lost last night in an effort to
keep the Serenity Brothers alive for at least another day,
instead of barking about miss managed outfield play and a
(16:03):
two for twenty stretch in the contest, let's focus on
some football here, because there's a pair of stories today
that tie in with one another, that fly in the
face of the narrative, if you will, that is being
bound off.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Like you got a pair.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Here in town. We got two teams. The Chargers have
Justin Herbert, the Rams have Matthew Stafford. They're both in
great shape. The Chargers maybe in a bit of a
better position. Herbert, ten years younger than Stafford, isn't dealing
with recurring shoulder, back and neck injuries. But Matthew Stafford
is one of the best quarterbacks in the league. He's
nails in the playoffs. He won a Super Bowl for
the Rams. So again, both in great shape, not looking
(16:46):
set for now, and even in the case of thirty
seven year old Stafford with his new three year deal,
they are set for the immediate and even three years
in the world of quarterbacking, you could say is the
foreseeable future. The Raiders are taking a shot. They're rolling
the dice on someone that their head coach knows very
well Pete Carroll Gino Smith after he shocked the league
when Pete named him the starter in Seattle and then
(17:09):
went on to post a Pro Bowl caliber season throwing
for over four thousand yards and thirty plus touchdowns. It
cost the Raiders a third rounder and committing to three
years one hundred and six million bucks to have him
for his age thirty five, thirty six, and thirty seven seasons.
Quarterbacks are hard to find. They are paid a premium
in both high draft picks that are spent on them
(17:32):
and the contracts that they receive, and sometimes those two
don't line up. Rock Purdy was the absolute, literal, lowest
possible draft pick you could invest in a player mister irrelevant,
and now he's making fifty three million bucks a year.
It can work out that way, like it did with
him or undrafted Tony Romo. It can also work out
with Joe Burrow and Josh Allen and Justin Herbert being
(17:53):
top ten picks. It can be a conundrum of inconsistency,
as is the case of Tua Tongue of Iloa, Kyler Murray,
guys whose teams weren't completely sure of when it came
to be extension time, but like the idea of having
them around at a premium price. So here's a couple
hundred million bucks, because that's better than finding yourself in
(18:17):
the quarterback wilderness, like the Steelers currently live in. Kenny Pickett,
Mason Rudolph, Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers, the Jets Zach Wilson,
Mike White, Joe Flacco, Aaron Rodgers justin fields. Of course,
it leads to well, the most memorable quarterbacks are the
franchise changers, the faces of the franchise. But really the
(18:39):
other famous ones are the high picked busts for the
teams that draft them. Taken in the top ten, fans
immediately rushed to the website or the team store to
buy the jerseys with the names Trubisky or Lance or
Daniel Jones or Josh Rosen or Jake Locker on the back,
(19:00):
only to have them at the goodwill within two to
three years. And look, teams are going to take swings.
They're going to take swings, especially now that the contracts
are locked. You can absorb a hit if you take
one and miss and move on, like the Cardinals did
a half decade ago with Josh Rosen and the very
(19:21):
next year took Kyler Murray. It is not what it
used to be when the number one pick or a
top ten pick become the richest players in the league
the moment they're drafted. So today there has become a
referendum to some degree on a particular style of signal
callers and how you should go about finding them or
(19:42):
how not to go about finding them. It stems from
the Anthony Richardson benching in favor of Daniel Jones.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Oh dude, it's like where the McAfee show today.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Yeah, right, the football universe is centered on Indianapolis and
how badly it was went wrong for that front office
and Shane Steichen former Chargers offensive coordinator. Chris Ballard, their
general manager, widely respected and liked throughout the league. He
was the number two in Kansas City forever when they
(20:15):
drafted all those big players that helped create the Super
Bowl run that they're on right now. So both guys
liked very much. I can considered a great offensive coach.
He's the guy that built that offense around Jalen Hurts
and found all that success in Philadelphia. But it worked.
It did not work with Anthony Richardson. So people are saying, hey,
(20:36):
this is a tail of why you don't take players
that haven't started a bunch of games in college. And
that's sort of the headline. Experience matters. Bo Nicks sixty
one starts well. Josh Allen started twenty five games. Drake
May started twenty six games. Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow
started twenty eight games. Yes, bow Nick started six one,
(21:00):
Jayden Daniels started fifty one. Justin Herbert started forty four.
There the point is, there's no rhyme or reason to
why some of these guys succeed and others don't.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
You can there's a situational aspect as well. I mean, right,
look at all the guys that have had success. Gino
Smith going somewhere else, Sam varn Team going somewhere else,
Bryce Young throwing on a scrap heap, gets a different
coach and starts playing with a little bit more confidence.
I mean, uh, Baker, everybody wants to write a script
(21:31):
for how this stuff is supposed to go because they
want to be right when they said that somebody's going
to be a generational player, and that's just not how
football is. Football is very circumstantial, and all these guys
are great and have great potential, and there's always a
reason something didn't work out. And sometimes yeah, that guy
was always going to be a bust anywhere, but sometimes
(21:53):
you just don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
No, that's it's exactly right. It's not just the player,
it's the coach. It's look what Andy Reid did with
Alex Smith, what he'said. Who knows if Patrick Mahomes was
Patrick Mahomes With that, Andy Reid arguably the best offensive
play caller in the history of the league as his
head coach for seven consecutive years with no shift whatsoever.
I mean, even when Chris Ballard took Anthony Richardson, he said, quote,
(22:17):
we're going to take a shot on him. They recognize
the gamble, but the guy is huge, he's got a
monster arm, he's lightning fast, and you hope you hit
the home run, You take the ceiling player, and that's
typically what people are gonna do. You take a mac
Jones and you know the chances of him being the
best or the second best, or maybe even the third
best quarterback and your division are long shots because of
(22:39):
the limited athletic profile. There's just a built in ceiling
and teams don't like taking swings on those players. Mahomes
was just so to say, oh, this is gonna shift
from traits based drafting. Mahomes was drafted on traits, a
gigantic arm, extending plays with his feet. Josh Allen and
Justin Herbert were drafted because they are freaking Greek gods
(23:03):
in statures, six foot six, two hundred and forty pounds
of cannons for arms. I mean you called Herbert's games
when he was at Oregon. He barely threw was don't
turn the ball over, run when you got to and
protect the ball at all. Caught, he ran for more
yards than he passed four in the Rose Bowl. It's
just they were drafted on potential and ceiling. That is
(23:23):
what quarterbacks typically are always drafted on. Drake May has
built the same as those two and coming out and
a class with Jayden Daniels and Caleb Williams. There were
some that said, ay, he's the red flag, twenty six
starts not enough, and then there were others that said, oh,
he's the best of the three, that Williams the concerns
(23:44):
about the locker room, that Daniels is too slender and
a serious injury risk, and that may was the next
Josh Allen. You want to build a rund, you can
make whatever narrative you want. And then of course you
got the a hole Sean Payton, who's already talking about
other teams players because he's a complete a hole and
that's what he does, saying that he always had doubts
about Caleb Williams because of his processing speed, and that
(24:07):
he has his exclusive formula for wayne negative plays in
college that informs his evaluations, and that William's negative formula
number was too high. It was higher than bo Nicks.
Speaker 4 (24:18):
With all due respect to Sean Payton, who does rev
you the wrong way, I don't know the man I
would trust his opinion, you know, I mean he does
have certainly, I mean he does have an educated opinion.
But all these guys do, and you know, it's it's
it's a real crap. Shoot, I mean just to go
way back in time. I mean, we couldn't beat Cad McNown.
(24:43):
I mean, no one could beat Kate McNown. He won
like twenty one games straight. He was he was a magician.
I would have never I would have drafted that guy
four hundred times. He was spurgatory, right, you know what
I mean? I mean I played against watching on the field. Well,
I mean he was absolutely magic and it didn't work
(25:04):
out for him one way or.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
To the worst possible place he could have. I think
the point being to say that teams are going to
draft quarterbacks a certain way, or they're going to weigh
certain things, and they're going to move on from traits
because it looks like Richardson isn't going to work out.
The Trey Lance is now on his third team. Yeah.
(25:27):
Next year, Lenora Sellers at six foot four, two hundred
and forty pounds in a four to four to forty
is going to be drafted in the top five. Wow.
Dev arch Manning has a good season after starting at
one year for one year at Texas. He's going to
be drafted number one overall and he's got traits and
he will have twelve or four thirteen starts or whatever
(25:47):
it might be.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
He's half as good as they say is he's going
to get drafted.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
That's that's just that's what's going to happen. The fact
that Anthony Richardson didn't work out, I would I would
imagine if you pulled the thirty one other general managers
in the league and ask them about the situation surrounding
the Colts and taking Richardson at number four, they would
all say the same thing. Yeah, I could see it
didn't work out, but made sense. Guy's huge, he's fast,
got a big arm, made some big plays at Florida
(26:12):
and won some game, so sure, why the hell not.
They're gonna keep drafting him because there's just not enough
to go around, which means some guys and some teams
are gonna bust out because they're gonna constantly be chasing.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
It, so they'll get drafted. But you're not as likely
to stick.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Or maybe you don't get drafted, or you get drafted
two hundred and fifty six though overall, and you find
yourself with a fifty three million dollars a year contract,
who the hell knows?
Speaker 4 (26:38):
Right, That's how I feel about it, which is why
I sleep through the offseason, talk about film the water.
We'll be right back with more Petros and money with
your Dead and a live guy Birthday of the Day,
the ever.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Let so so.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
That guy's gonna start from the Giants, the worst draft
pick of all time?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
No, Daniel Jones took his job.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
Well, that's what I'm saying. The guy from the Giants
is going to start for the Colts. He was the
worst draft pick of all time.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Yes, with the I'm so confused look on his face,
the perennial of why I look so confused look?
Speaker 3 (27:11):
Dwayne Bickert can't be happy?

Speaker 3 (28:47):
Matt's got the Dead Guy Birthday of the Day.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Yeah, our guy real sliding doors, what if? What could
have been? Butterfly effect kind of moment authored by our
dead guy Birthday of the day. Bernard Baruch, one of
the most important Americans during some of the most trying
times of our nation's history, whose name I would suggest
and feel pretty confident saying, is likely not known by
(29:12):
I'll go ninety five percent of sitting congressmen and women.
Yet what he chased world peace. What he walked away
from millions and millions of dollars at the time on
Wall Street because the President the nation called him into
service in order to streamline the economic portion of our
participation in both WW one and then WW two. Born
(29:37):
in Camden, South Carolina, Jewish parents mom physician, dad surgeon,
so big brain gens in Bernie moved to the big
town when he was a kid, went to City College
in New York, became a broker for AA Houseman and Company.
And he was good, really good, and got good fast.
By his mid twenties, he had made enough on his
commissions to buy his own seat on the New York
(29:59):
Stock Exchange. Those cost about nineteen grand, then almost a
million dollars in today's money. And he was quick to
recognize that Hawaii had a burgeoning sugar market, and that
is how he amassed his fortune with it. He founded
the Intercontinental Rubber Company. He dominated the rubber market.
Speaker 4 (30:18):
Not the mixed plate market that was also burgeoning in
the Hawaii area.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
Back then, you know, I think somebody was already onto that,
and he's like, damn, I'm too late. I missed the mixplate,
but I'm going to be early on sugar. At thirty
three p he was known as the lone Wolf of
Wall Street. That was his nickname. Everybody wanted a piece
of him, tried to hire him Rockefeller, Peabody, Guggenheim, but
he was solo all the way. And in nineteen sixteen
(30:44):
Woodrow Wilson rings him up and says, I need you
to run the Advisory Committee and the Council of National Defense.
He became the chairman of the War Industries Board. He
managed the US economic mobilization during World War One. He
was our representative at the Paris Peace Conference, and he
pleaded with both France and Britain to ease up on
(31:06):
the reparations demanded of Germany, saying, make this cooperative instead
of punitive. But they did not listen, and of course
that gave birth to Nazism and the rise of Hitler.
From that catastrophic mistake, he continued to advise and work
for the government while continuing to make millions on Wall Street.
He sounded the alarm of the market crash. He got out,
but only a select you listened. World War two rolls around.
(31:30):
Roosevelt appoints him as Director of the Office of War Mobilization,
and he came up with the work or fight bill.
Either you were going to serve in the armed forces
and you were going to go fight, or you were
going to work for the country in an industry that
was producing what was needed to win the war. Nobody
got a pass.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
What about the podcasters.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Podcasters were exiled to Canada, Craneland, and Iceland.
Speaker 4 (31:55):
There was no podcasting.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
No podcasting. What our man Baruch built was a manufacturing
process that cut the time to produce tanks, bombers, all
the war supplies by two years, catching Hitler by surprise.
And also he insisted Roosevelt, surprise, we got tanks two
years before you thought we had him. He insisted that
(32:19):
Roosevelt adopt the rehabilitation program for injured soldiers. That set
the course for the VA to take care of our
men and women when they came home. He and Churchill
were best friends. They would stay each other's homes when
visiting the UK or the US. And how about this
One p after the atomic bomb end of the war,
President Truman appointed Baruk as our US representative to the
UN's Atomic Energy Commission, and he presented his Baruk plan.
(32:43):
He said, we'll get rid of all our nukes. Let's
start an international body that controls all of the uranium
in the world, all of the atomic energy. Will build
nuclear energy facilities across the world. Of the uranium, right,
none of the exactly the bombs, end of the sun.
(33:03):
That's basically what Baruk did. He said, none of it
would be used for weapons. Everybody was on board, China
was on board, everyone except for the freaking commies. Stalin
veto power on the Security Council, he road blocked it
and upset Baruk resigned from the Commission, and at that moment,
the Cold War was born. The nuclear arms race was on.
(33:26):
And that was that. Baruk gave a bunch of his
money away, most of it away to a bunch of
higher learning institutions, Barok College. I did not know. I'd
never heard of it, but it came thanks to his funding.
Twenty thousand students at Barok College. It is the senior
college in the City University of New York system. He
died at ninety four in nineteen sixty five. Bernard Baruk, Wow,
(33:48):
how about that this week generation.
Speaker 4 (33:51):
This guy's a military star too. I think he's even
older than the greatest. Is considerably beating out the case
of real estate. Peter Gallagher, you know how much we
love getting nailed by the king. Around here we are
and my daughter CALLI Happy birthday. Now she's we have
(34:11):
to go to South Korea. I could not resist June
Jin forty five years old today. Maybe one day, Hey
Song Kim will come off the injured list and we'll
have a Korean and the lineup to celebrate. But until then,
(34:31):
June Jin, a rapper from Soul born a bastard raised
by a grandmother and his father's third wife, eventually did
not because he's one of the first generation boy bands.
That was before they built the entertainment fetus bladder factories
(34:54):
all over Korea. South Korea. He auditioned for a boy
band sin Hua in nineteen ninety eight, him and five
other dudes, just like the Seattle seven, Me and six
other guys. They have way over a dozen albums. Shinhua,
(35:17):
they're still going. Now here's where he's just like Baruk.
They took a four year hiatus so the guys can
do their mandatory military service.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
Okay, there we go South Korea inscription for all.
Speaker 4 (35:29):
I don't know if they were able to get some
tanks to the front earlier, but.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Well damnse you might look a little different now, wouldn't they.
Speaker 4 (35:38):
Jin Chin went solo in two thousand and six, but
he remained with the band as well. There's a lot
of TV stuff in movies. Been married five years. Looks
like shin Hua doesn't have it as much momentum, but
they are the longest running Korean boy band in existence,
the first generation of k pop, like the Korean New Kids.
Speaker 2 (36:02):
I was just gonna say, so, I guess that would
be NKOTV. Right.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
Well yeah, but I mean, you know, what was the
Jackson five? You know what was true?
Speaker 2 (36:09):
What the new edition?
Speaker 3 (36:10):
What were the drifters? You know?
Speaker 4 (36:12):
I mean you can go the platters there, you can
go way back. But yeah, as far as like they
didn't wear big jeans and do hip hop moves, right,
but like you're saying, yeah, Backstreet Boys, Luca Doncicic's favorite band.
I mean, I think the K pop stuff is inspired
more by your new kids in Backstreet than the the
(36:33):
the Cherrelle Platters.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
Yeah yeah, all right, Matt. We do have some uh
some titles.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Okay, are you ready? Song titles? Here we go.
Speaker 3 (36:42):
Tim has the uh yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
What's the name of the band again? Shinhuah, shinhuah.
Speaker 4 (36:48):
Well, the guy's name is jun Jin. So I've used
some TV stuff. He's done emmon, Oh.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
I got you? Okay, so he yeah, that's that's true.
I guess these guys aren't just uh, come on stars
they get on the TV.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
These are dynamic people.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
Multi media brands, if you will.
Speaker 3 (37:02):
Let's go to the beach.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
Let's go to the beach. I'm gonna go crickets.
Speaker 3 (37:06):
Oh, come on, you live on a beach.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
I think you were trying to patronize me with that one.
Speaker 4 (37:12):
Take it for granted, Huh, you wouldn't if you lived
in Menafee like Audie Murphy cooking The Birth of a
Cooking King. Yes, I'm not trying to Jerrymander here, Matt,
but this one also reminded me of a of a
(37:32):
show idea that you often pitched on the show.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
Okay, couple athletes village that is multiple horns, Yeah, telling
you to hell with big brother Matt wand the Olympic Village.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
Love Island, Olympic Village Sex. We'd watch it.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
We got two years to figure it, two and a
half years to figure it out.
Speaker 3 (37:54):
You know, I know where you could put it.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
The Chinese vacated.
Speaker 4 (38:00):
I need Zamby Towers. That's right, met her one hundred
meters away.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Oh that's a horns.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
Take you acquainted guy, that's horn take it.
Speaker 4 (38:14):
Will be right back. Yes, I am an acquaintance guy. No,
everybody really likes me. I'm not beloved, but I am
acquainted with a lot of people. We do have the fun,
fat and the quick kits.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
I feel like it's the brother song to promiscuous Girl.
Speaker 4 (38:26):
Acquainted guy, Nasty boys acquainted guy. Okay, stay cool, we'll
be right back, and remember at five o'clock, get online,
halfway through Marongvio Casino Dodgers on deck and get yourself
some shoes.
