Our show is always there. So thank you for listening,
and thank you for being part of Great Sports Talk.
Thank you to Ronnie Fossio, our engineer who does not
(01:55):
eat eleven hot dogs. Great Sports Talk. Steffush is on
with Conway right now. Conway's really milking I mean, wow, Oh,
it's daily.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
He's got Thursday, the Good Samaritans, Yesterday, updates Today, The Foosh.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
And Tim Kats, our executive producer, has produced a lot
of shows show and now it is uh Matt, this
is the number one story of the day in every
single media, whether it's like sports news, hard news, page
six KFI other than the Foosh. Everything is about one
(02:34):
of the headlines. Everything.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
What should the headline be today? Sports?
Speaker 1 (02:38):
That's all we think about.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Here's the story nobody's talking about.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
You know, I'm not a racist. I mean, I hope
you do. He's a bad headline, the headline. There has
been a two prong attack from Travis Kelcey and Taylor
Swift with the GQ magazine cover and article and a
bunch of very tasteful, artsy pictures of Travis Kelsey running
around Florida in a full fur holding like a gun
(03:07):
that's not like actually an animal in the water with
a like a event staff vest On. He's really expressing himself.
And of course and then the podcast you know that
she went to Taylor Swift and we teased this.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
It's the number one podcast in the history of podcasts.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
They went on the podcast, and she said what her
next album is gonna be, and this and that. So
I'm sorry, Matt. This is the biggest story in America
and it is our job to cover it unless you
dropped off your laptop today and you don't have any
way to cover stories because you're not connected anymore. Now
(03:47):
the number one big revelation. Are you ready for it?
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I'm ready.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Travis kel Kelsey wants to phase out wanting to be
known as a party guy. He said, when you see
me hanging out at the US Open with Taylor, it
may look like the two of us are partying, but
I'm just enjoying the fun of being at this really
cool event that I always wanted to go to with
(04:12):
the person I love. I become way more strategic and
understanding what I am portraying to people. Your thoughts on that, okay,
all right? Like whatever, you don't want to be known
(04:33):
as a party guy. You used to roll around with
big booty chicks and corsets. Well, are you saying at
nightclubs until four in the morning now that she's got
a small booty, right and maybe even a flat one?
Would you be saying that that's that's what's keeping him
inside at night.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
I would say so, I would say that her extracurricular
activities perhaps don't line up with the well ladies that
he used to date, the type of ladies that he
used to date.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
His new outlook on his image was influenced by Taylor Swift. Matt, So,
you're absolutely right. If this guy was a Charger, you'd
love this. Okay, You're damn right. I would people gravitate
towards how she performs and how she makes it feel
like the entire stadium is in a little room with her.
(05:25):
She is so good at mesmerizing everybody and making everybody
feel like it's an intimate situation. I think that alone,
there's so much calm and coolness. She's beautiful, and she's
up there making everybody feel at ease. Whenever I get
in front of the crowd, I feel like I've got
(05:46):
to be like whoo, like excited, like bringing the energy.
Then I saw that coolness and that calmness and that
relatability that she's so good at presenting. I really grabbed that, Like, man,
I can use that side of entertainment as well. I'm
not just always being the guy that brings the energy
and creates those exciting moments. You're a tight end, right,
(06:06):
just just line up and run the play.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
A lunkhead out of the University of Cincinnati.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
Who was like academically ineligible for the whole time.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Exactly right.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Nowadays, I just want to be respected for what and
loved by the people I'm surrounded by in my work.
For his work, Matt, that's a tight end, no doubt.
I want to leave it better than where it was
when I started, and I see her having those same values.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Beautiful sleep, tight ending better than when it started.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
You know, it just feels like a guy who's trying
to make sure Chiefs Kingdom knows that, you know, he's
back in it all in, ready to go win a
Super Bowl, and you know, don't don't get I've been
partying all summer.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
He did admit that, you know that he maybe was,
you know, a little distracted the last three years globally
trotting with Taylor Swift. He wrote, I think I might
have slipped a little bit because I did have a
little bit more focus on trying to set myself up,
and opportunities came where I was excited to venture into
a new world of acting and being an entertainer. Kelsey
(07:17):
was quick to stress he doesn't regret taking on those opportunities.
I shouldn't have done it. I don't say that, Kelsey said,
I'm just saying that my work ethic is such that
I have so much pride in how I do things
that I never want the product to tail off. And
I feel like these past two years haven't been to
my standard, even though they made the Super Bowl back
(07:38):
to back year.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yeah, I think last year was his worst statistical year. Well,
he's old, wide margin, and yeah, I would point to
the fact that you're in like year twelve, probably gonna happen.
Not sure if it's because you were cruising around on
a world what tour, the world tour, world tour, but yeah, sure,
(08:00):
So you're.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Not moved by this at all. You don't. You don't
find a huge story, Matt. This guy is all over
the place, He's everywhere. Never has a lukheaded tight end
from Cincinnati who could not stay academically eligible, been so
coveted and wanted and desire.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
They always say, right, And as a father of three daughters,
you know that are you know twenty four and twenty
one and eighteen, you you know you like a boy.
You gotta like him for who he is. You don't
want to change him. You don't want to make him
adapt to what you want him to be, because that's
not going to end well, you know, that's just that
they're going to go back to being what they are.
And I think if you just want to go ahead
(08:43):
and google, like you.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Think he's you think he's going to go back to
being like the Island boys.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Like yeah, like and he's with his various girlfriends like
Kayla Nicole, and you look at him and it's like, yeah,
it doesn't look like the same guy that does that.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Definitely, now that he's got his floppy and his cool out.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Sweaters and his outfits, and it's like, where's the uh,
where's the cut up jeans and the Air Force ones
and the the shaved heads, and where's the white guy
with the fade right? And the liar's the fade? Where's
the fade? The lineup the gold chain? You look like
a complete idiot sort of vibe. It's now gone. It's
(09:24):
now super sensitive J crew Patagonia guy.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
But he looks he still looks like an idiot, yes,
but just a different kind of idiot. So you're saying
he's trying to change for Taylor Swift, and that's you're
giving an air Eric Dickerson.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Like, uh, like that doesn't prophecy of doom. Yeah, Like
sooner or later, I seem pretty happy they do and
may they may they experience unending happiness.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
And Travis Kelsey said that Taylor Swift reminds him of
his mom and his mom. Uh she has the qualities
of Donna Kelsey, kindness and genuineness.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Okay, well, I can see that. She seems like an
innocent you know, she tends to play to the the
innocence of young girls.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Strong work ethic, yes, gold mind that she's just like mom.
And those big booty those big booty Instagram models were
not like mom.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
No, they were not most I could say most definitely.
They were not.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Fade flannel sleeves cut off. That was my kissing gold chain,
freaking air Force one. Sorry man, it's the number one
story in America and we got to cover it. Okay, yeah,
we do. I mean absolutely. Do you know, just because
Justin Herbert is not dating Sidney Sweeney, you know.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
That'd be sweet if he did, well, it.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Would certainly change the dynamic of charging.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Guite, no doubt.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Come on, Herbert, why don't you get your wick out?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Help us out. It's Sweeney would swoon over you.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
We're sending me. We're sending you to the Viceroy's Popular
thirty years ago. Maybe somebody's there for you.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Forget your cool American Eagle Christmas sweat gonna be amazing, Herbert.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
We'll be right back.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Follow me, Follow me to celebrity stardom.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Top story of the day. As Matt laments the Dodgers
position in the dog days of August.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
We've made it even easier to take LA Sports with

Speaker 1 (11:38):
Welcome back, Petro Sand Money, Dodgers, Angels. Dodgers can't beat
the Angels for seen for Seen Dodgers on decade five
thirty because of the Bush start time.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Tomorrow, Bush.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
We hope you angel types, even if you're Bush, will
come on out to see us and the Dodger fans
and all people from two to five thirty in the
OC for the four stop of the Petrolsen Money Summer Tour.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Peacefully coexist. That's what we want to prove is the
Petros and Money Show bringing people together.
Speaker 1 (12:10):

It's okay.
Speaker 4 (13:04):
You are of a darker shoe than me.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Even if you are, You're welcome. You're welcome to be there.
It is time for the top story of the next
story of it.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
This is just something I found sort of funny as
I was thinking about it last night. Mother scratching the
screen as I was watching the Dodgers Dude Diddley poop
through the first seven innings.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Upset, I'm Matt. You didn't like seeing Kenlly Jansen come
in and blow them away at the end. I didn't
and blow him away like the Delta Force.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
I didn't like it. I didn't like seeing Soriano pull
it out and whip it around in their face for
six innings.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Oh you should have heard the dazzler. That dazzler was
having the time of his life.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
I bet he was dazzling. I can tell you the
Dodger broadcast had no dazzle to it. It was quite upset.
I pushed back on this regularly, and it's an interesting
sort of Uh, well, there's nothing to be happy about.
There's nothing enjoyable about the way Dodgers are playing base
right now since the All Star break, and even really
prior to the All Start break, that seven game losing streak.
(14:05):
So I now have to play in my brain the
as long as it works out in October. Who cares?
And that's what's kind of funny about my typical unicorns
and confetti glass half full position versus the dark cloud,
wet blanket glass.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Half empty usually. You know, I mean, you've self scouted
like any good football program, and you know that you
don't want to do what everybody thinks you're gonna do.
So when people are down on the Dodgers, you're up
like we are going to be in Thousand Oaks on Friday.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Up.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
And when people are up on the Dodgers, you're down
like we're gonna be down in Orange County tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Let's balance it out. That's what we do on the pen.
We make you think on a Petro some money show.
Because you know, I'm regularly preaching year in and year out, hey,
enjoy the regular season. I've heard that before every year, seemingly.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
Like we all they have the present. You know that,
Pat O'Brien, you can't do anything about Yes, that's nothing,
it's gone. It's got tomorrow. You know know that right now,
right now, And that's your message, mat and it's effective.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
The Dodgers, i would say, are playing inspiring baseball. They're
doing incredible things, live in the moment, take joy from
it instead of the dumbasses who scream don't care unless
they do it in October. None of this matters. Let
me wake me up October first, and that what.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
We say here matters.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Yeah yeah, well, shoe on other foot. Script flipped. Now,
those same people who had no interest in celebrating the
winning over the course of one sixty two are no
longer saying who cares because they're not winning, they're losing.
(15:53):
So you would think that group of people's mantra would
be the same. I don't care they're losing. All I
care about wait me up October first. It's all good
as long as they're in the postseason. I have no
worries about in August, in July swoon. The team is
built for the postseason. If it gets sideways in the postseason,
we can start our bitch session. Because I've never cared
(16:14):
about the regular season in the past. I've always ignored
regular season success. But now, all of a sudden, that
same group of people incredibly hostile, incredulous, feisty, pissed off
to all ends about this three hundred and fifty million
dollars payroll playing like absolute garbage. They can't hit with
(16:34):
runners in scoring position. They can't get anyone in the
bullpen to hold a lead or close a game. A
guy who's supposed to be a cy young candidate and
one of the most enjoyable pitchers to watch is hovering
around five hundred just have the worst outing of his
MLB career. Six runs to the Angels, no less and
less than five innings, a disastrous fifth inning with literally
(16:56):
zero runs, literally zero runs support from a lineup that
has three MVPs at the top, followed by three more
all stars that combine to man the top six slots,
zero runs, trailing seven to nothing in the seventh before
they would get on the board. It's a bad watch.
(17:16):
It's a bad listen, not bad, that's right, it's a bummer.
It's been over a month, twelve and nineteen in their
last thirty one games, a potential to get swept, to
get handed a season sweep by a second club. The
Angels know less if they don't get this thing figured
(17:37):
out tonight with Emmit Shean on the mound, followed by
our summer tour stop at Brewery X that will lead
into Shoe hal Tani's the first ever start as a
pitcher at Angel Stadium as a Dodger tomorrow. I mentioned
it yesterday, pill bring it up again. They're a wild
card team playing the sixth seed. As it stands right now,
the Mets in a wild card best of three all
(18:00):
games at Dodger Stadium, keep losing. They're only a game
up on the Padres, and if they slip out of
the division lead, they would not be the four seed.
They would right now be the five seed and have
to travel to Wrigley Field like the Padres are currently
scheduled to do.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Come on, Kober, They're gonna they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll beat
the crap out a Dave, no doubt, like they hate
up that Pacers fan outside of Madison Square Garden.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
That's what's gonna happen to Dave. And we can't afford
for that to happen to Dave. He's a father, He's
gotta pay a mortgage. They will play a Cubs team
that swept them at Wrigley this season then have won
four in a row against the Dodgers after the Dodgers
swept them out in Japan to start the season. U
there is no way they're catching the Brewers. I mean
zero point zero chance. They're six and a half behind Milwaukee,
(18:47):
a team that swept them over their six games this season.
So if chalk holds, you're headed to American Family Field,
where right before the All Star Break, the Brewers put
it on the Dodgers to the tune of a combined
fifth fifteen to four aggregate in the three game series,
only to come here to start the post All Star
break and swept the team at Chavez Ravine. They're the
(19:09):
best team in the National League. They're running away with
that right now. And while it was in October, you
would assume there's confidence from Milwaukee having won the previous
six all six of the regular season. And the big
problem for the Dodgers you said it a minute ago,
Pee like, do they want it? You got to string
together wins in the postseason if you want to win
(19:29):
a World Series, it is it is hard to grind
out four rounds of the playoffs. With their current status,
they have not. The Dodgers have not won three games
in a row since July third, when they swept the
god awful White Sox, and after that game started their
seven game losing streak. They won two against the Giants
(19:51):
to close out the first half, then were swept. We
just mentioned it by the Brewers. The Dodgers have rotated
wins and losses from July twenty nine to August sixth,
and it's not like they were playing top tier competition.
That was the Reds, the Rays, and the Cardinals. Meanwhile,
the team that's just a game behind them right now,
the Padres. They're riding a six game wins. They had
(20:13):
a six game win streak earlier. They're riding a three
game win streak right now. The Phillies have won three
in a row, dropped one and are now on a
four game win streak. And the aforementioned Brewers have won
ten in a row. Meanwhile, the Dodgers have not.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Every other's a little amen to b with the mint?
What the ball in it? With a ball in it?
Speaker 2 (20:37):
There's an mn TOB That's what they're facing. All of
those teams are streaking as the chase for home field advantage,
the chase for division titles, the chase for priority in
the wild card round. Well, remember, since they made it
six teams qualifying for the postseason. Every single game is
(20:58):
played at the High Steeds Field so the folks that
would complain about celebrating regular season wins would say, well,
today's August twelfth, Who cares, not six weeks before the
playoffs start. But I think this is the problem why
everybody's fire is so stalked, because we were told to
(21:19):
be patient.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
I've been stalked and poked, and there's no more fire.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
We were told, Hey, Blake Snell's coming back, Okay, Tyler
Glasnew's coming They are back, and they're pitching well exactly.
Max Munsey's coming back. He's banging dongers months mon are Man. Oh,
Blake trying, he's not doing well. But all three of
those guys are back and they're all playing great, and
(21:46):
the Dodgers are worse. So I think you got to
wonder if reality is again what you mentioned a minute ago.
There's a reason why no team has been a repeat
World Series champion since the nineties Yankees. The sport is
a grind one hundred and sixty two games in one
hundred and eighty five days. The postseason is so damn
(22:09):
intense because of the nature of baseball. An individual head
to head with an opponent, while your team depends on
just you. It is your individual performance that helps team success.
You get zero help from anybody else, zero, and that
is mentally taxing. You're playing around ten to fifteen more
(22:29):
games than everyone else. The exhale is going to be
considerably greater when you win it all because of how
hard it is to win a World Series. So it
was last night a lack of focus from Yama, the
guy who single handedly, for the most part, put the
Dodgers in the position to win the World Series with
that Game five gem against the Padres, because most intimated
(22:52):
whoever won that series was gonna win the World Series
if they were the two best teams in baseball. And
here's where we insert this one. Because Major League Baseball
has such a dumb ass playoff structure, they're almost assured
to never face each other in the NLCS because one
will win the division the other will be a wildcard team.
So when you accomplish that on the national stage, as
Yama Mota did, and you show up to Anahe'm on
(23:13):
a Monday with the MLB leading strikeout lineup, and you
look at that start time and you're like, six thirty eight.
What kind of bush league are we in?
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Right now? Wow, Matt, You're blaming the start time.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Woo, maybe it's just not happening.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Well, that's some real gymnastics.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Because it was not happening for Yama last night. He
did not look a damn.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
They're manipulating they're manipulating his who he pitches against. I
don't think they wanted him to pitch against the Padres again.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
He got that extra day off.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
Yeah, he because the Padres. I don't think I've seen
him this year, and they're trying to like keep that
as a thing for whatever reason.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Chess versus checkers is what you're telling me.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Yeah, they're way ahead on that, but that doesn't excuse
the performance.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
As you said, No, his worst one of his major
league career.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
Sotani's getting sued and trying to steal.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Third right two hundred and forty million bucks Hawaiian high
end realty. Meanwhile, the lineup couldn't touch Soriano two hits
over six innings. Two the day before, Shoheo, Tani and
Mookie Bets could not tie or win a game against
a rookie reliever who inherited the bases loaded, sported a
(24:25):
six era, struck out Altani and got a weak ass groundout.
To end the game from Bets rookie six era bases loaded,
one out. Dodgers lose that game by one. His last outing,
the Angel Soriano lasted four innings and gave up seven
runs in four innings. That's it, seven runs in those
four innings. And last night against the Dodgers, Otani bets Freeman, Smith,
(24:50):
Muncy Hernandez two hits, zero runs. Tonight they get a
twenty four year old Cuban as an opener. That's Freeman.
Can you maintain this one game lead that was once
eight and a half Now?
Speaker 1 (25:07):
I don't know, Matt. They don't seem like they're very hungry.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
No, which is why it's okay for someone who routinely
I'm giving myself permission to hold this position. Good job, right,
thank you. I had a negotiation before we came out
of the year in this last commercial break, uh, which
is why I think it's okay for me, okay to
say this is unacceptable because I've been the one who
(25:32):
celebrated the regular season success in the past.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Those of you who could say even Matt Smith is frustrated.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Right, the other people that said they didn't care about
the regular season, that they don't want to hear it
that all that matters is the playoffs and and wake

(29:39):
for the Dead Guy Birthday of the.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
Day, Your Dead Guy Berthday today, Sid Bernstein Happy. It
would have been one hundred and seventh to Sid, a
man who changed quite well, not literally, but was as
responsible for changing American music as anyone out there forever.
How he was a promoter. He was the author of
the British Invasion, brought over the Beatle, brought over the Stones,
(30:01):
the Kings, the moody Blues, Herman's Hermits, which led to
a shift in America books.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
People don't give herms the love they deserve.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
It now they do not, and they should.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
They don't show Herms Herms the love but I know Clow.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Will Oh, you know, no doubt you're getting a text
on that one. He ushered in a full rock and
roll movement. He was born in the big town, adopted,
went to Columbia, studied journalism, Greatest Generation so World War
Two seers six hundred and second Anti Aircraft Artillery Gun Battalion.
He was in the Yes and when he gets back
(30:34):
to New York immediately dives into the music scene. He
was a booking agent for Chubby Schecker, worked for General
Artist Corporation and a big Anglo file. So as someone
who was way ahead of the masses, he reached out
in nineteen sixty three to Beatles manager Brian Epstein after
(30:54):
reading repeatedly about the group in several British rags, and
Sid convinced.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Abe, I've read about you in several British rags.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
Mister Epstein, a skeptical Epstein, who had no interest in
trying to conquer the as.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
Interested in going over that ocean, said.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Leave it to me, epp, I can book you a
successful US tour. So he booked Carnegie Hall without telling
the venue what type of music it was that would
be coming into play. In December nineteen sixty three was
still believe it was a string quartet that were anticipating.
In December of nineteen sixty three, the still unknown Beatles
(31:34):
made their US debut thanks to Sid a little bit
of a warm up gig in tiny Tidewater, Virginia. For
two weeks straight. He pounded the local radio stations and
papers with music and stories and T shirts and ticket giveaways,
and it became an event that planted the seeds. In
New York City. January of nineteen sixty four, prepping for
(31:57):
Carnegie Hall, he booked what You're Hearing in the Background,
The Ed Sullivan Show Feb twelve, nineteen sixty four, Ed
Sullivan Show. The two shows were three days later, and
Beatlemania was on because of our man six.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Bernstein is stick with the test market, you know, like
that like they did with the UPA.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Ran to test this in Barstone and then we'll go nationwide. Yes, Tidewater,
Virginia was the test market before the Carnegie Hall shows
and the Ed Sullivan Show. Bernstein is also the guy
who booked the famous Shay Stadium shows, the last Beatles
shows in nineteen sixty five as well. And how about
this at those shows for hours, as crowds had packed
(32:41):
in multiple hours before the Beatles hit the stage. He
peppered the audience with images on the scoreboards that read
the Rascals are coming. The Rascals a band he was managing,
and over and over again, much to the protest of
Beatles manager the afore mentioned Brian Epstein. After the shows,
it led to a deal for the Rascals with Atlanta.
(33:02):
With Atlantic, they were the first ever white only act
to be signed by the label nice. He also got
them booked on Ed Sullivan. We're the Rascals and well,
everybody thought they were a black band because they were
on Atlantic, and then all of a sudden they show
up on Ed Sullivan and bang number one hit with
Good Lovin. Thanks to his relationships with the Fab four,
Paul McCartney helped him promote the shows in the UK
was so excited about their debut in December of sixty
(33:24):
six he went to Both Knights at the Scotch of
Saint James Club, leading to the Rascals becoming a household
name across the pond. Grooven went to number one as well,
and Sid had his own and blowing up. He still
booked though still brought over all the other bands, the
ones I mentioned before Stone's US debut, Kim Sorbs and
(33:44):
Our Man. Sid was the guy who helped promote black
artists in white venues. James Brown said Sid was quote
the man at the forefront of race relations in music
in the US throughout the sixties, so seems like an
all around stand up dude. Bernstein the first promoter to
book a rock concert at Madison Square Garden Creams Farewell
(34:06):
Tour November two, nineteen sixty eight, and because he always
wanted to be on the stage, ping in the spotlight.
In twenty twelve, at ninety three years old, he released
Sid Bernstein Presents, his own album of covers, Wow Happy
one hundred and seven. Sid Bernstein, I call.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
This one help.
Speaker 2 (34:30):

and thank you for being part of Great Sports Talk.
Thank you to Ronnie Fossio, our engineer who does not
(01:55):
eat eleven hot dogs. Great Sports Talk. Steffush is on
with Conway right now. Conway's really milking I mean, wow, Oh,
it's daily.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
He's got Thursday, the Good Samaritans, Yesterday, updates Today, The Foosh.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
And Tim Kats, our executive producer, has produced a lot
of shows show and now it is uh Matt, this
is the number one story of the day in every
single media, whether it's like sports news, hard news, page
six KFI other than the Foosh. Everything is about one
(02:34):
of the headlines. Everything.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
What should the headline be today? Sports?
Speaker 1 (02:38):
That's all we think about.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Here's the story nobody's talking about.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
You know, I'm not a racist. I mean, I hope
you do. He's a bad headline, the headline. There has
been a two prong attack from Travis Kelcey and Taylor
Swift with the GQ magazine cover and article and a
bunch of very tasteful, artsy pictures of Travis Kelsey running
around Florida in a full fur holding like a gun
(03:07):
that's not like actually an animal in the water with
a like a event staff vest On. He's really expressing himself.
And of course and then the podcast you know that
she went to Taylor Swift and we teased this.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
It's the number one podcast in the history of podcasts.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
They went on the podcast, and she said what her
next album is gonna be, and this and that. So
I'm sorry, Matt. This is the biggest story in America
and it is our job to cover it unless you
dropped off your laptop today and you don't have any
way to cover stories because you're not connected anymore. Now
(03:47):
the number one big revelation. Are you ready for it?
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I'm ready.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Travis kel Kelsey wants to phase out wanting to be
known as a party guy. He said, when you see
me hanging out at the US Open with Taylor, it
may look like the two of us are partying, but
I'm just enjoying the fun of being at this really
cool event that I always wanted to go to with
(04:12):
the person I love. I become way more strategic and
understanding what I am portraying to people. Your thoughts on that, okay,
all right? Like whatever, you don't want to be known
(04:33):
as a party guy. You used to roll around with
big booty chicks and corsets. Well, are you saying at
nightclubs until four in the morning now that she's got
a small booty, right and maybe even a flat one?
Would you be saying that that's that's what's keeping him
inside at night.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
I would say so, I would say that her extracurricular
activities perhaps don't line up with the well ladies that
he used to date, the type of ladies that he
used to date.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
His new outlook on his image was influenced by Taylor Swift. Matt, So,
you're absolutely right. If this guy was a Charger, you'd
love this. Okay, You're damn right. I would people gravitate
towards how she performs and how she makes it feel
like the entire stadium is in a little room with her.
(05:25):
She is so good at mesmerizing everybody and making everybody
feel like it's an intimate situation. I think that alone,
there's so much calm and coolness. She's beautiful, and she's
up there making everybody feel at ease. Whenever I get
in front of the crowd, I feel like I've got
(05:46):
to be like whoo, like excited, like bringing the energy.
Then I saw that coolness and that calmness and that
relatability that she's so good at presenting. I really grabbed that, Like, man,
I can use that side of entertainment as well. I'm
not just always being the guy that brings the energy
and creates those exciting moments. You're a tight end, right,
(06:06):
just just line up and run the play.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
A lunkhead out of the University of Cincinnati.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
Who was like academically ineligible for the whole time.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Exactly right.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Nowadays, I just want to be respected for what and
loved by the people I'm surrounded by in my work.
For his work, Matt, that's a tight end, no doubt.
I want to leave it better than where it was
when I started, and I see her having those same values.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Beautiful sleep, tight ending better than when it started.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
You know, it just feels like a guy who's trying
to make sure Chiefs Kingdom knows that, you know, he's
back in it all in, ready to go win a
Super Bowl, and you know, don't don't get I've been
partying all summer.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
He did admit that, you know that he maybe was,
you know, a little distracted the last three years globally
trotting with Taylor Swift. He wrote, I think I might
have slipped a little bit because I did have a
little bit more focus on trying to set myself up,
and opportunities came where I was excited to venture into
a new world of acting and being an entertainer. Kelsey
(07:17):
was quick to stress he doesn't regret taking on those opportunities.
I shouldn't have done it. I don't say that, Kelsey said,
I'm just saying that my work ethic is such that
I have so much pride in how I do things
that I never want the product to tail off. And
I feel like these past two years haven't been to
my standard, even though they made the Super Bowl back
(07:38):
to back year.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yeah, I think last year was his worst statistical year. Well,
he's old, wide margin, and yeah, I would point to
the fact that you're in like year twelve, probably gonna happen.
Not sure if it's because you were cruising around on
a world what tour, the world tour, world tour, but yeah, sure,
(08:00):
So you're.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Not moved by this at all. You don't. You don't
find a huge story, Matt. This guy is all over
the place, He's everywhere. Never has a lukheaded tight end
from Cincinnati who could not stay academically eligible, been so
coveted and wanted and desire.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
They always say, right, And as a father of three daughters,
you know that are you know twenty four and twenty
one and eighteen, you you know you like a boy.
You gotta like him for who he is. You don't
want to change him. You don't want to make him
adapt to what you want him to be, because that's
not going to end well, you know, that's just that
they're going to go back to being what they are.
And I think if you just want to go ahead
(08:43):
and google, like you.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Think he's you think he's going to go back to
being like the Island boys.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Like yeah, like and he's with his various girlfriends like
Kayla Nicole, and you look at him and it's like, yeah,
it doesn't look like the same guy that does that.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Definitely, now that he's got his floppy and his cool out.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Sweaters and his outfits, and it's like, where's the uh,
where's the cut up jeans and the Air Force ones
and the the shaved heads, and where's the white guy
with the fade right? And the liar's the fade? Where's
the fade? The lineup the gold chain? You look like
a complete idiot sort of vibe. It's now gone. It's
(09:24):
now super sensitive J crew Patagonia guy.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
But he looks he still looks like an idiot, yes,
but just a different kind of idiot. So you're saying
he's trying to change for Taylor Swift, and that's you're
giving an air Eric Dickerson.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Like, uh, like that doesn't prophecy of doom. Yeah, Like
sooner or later, I seem pretty happy they do and
may they may they experience unending happiness.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
And Travis Kelsey said that Taylor Swift reminds him of
his mom and his mom. Uh she has the qualities
of Donna Kelsey, kindness and genuineness.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Okay, well, I can see that. She seems like an
innocent you know, she tends to play to the the
innocence of young girls.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Strong work ethic, yes, gold mind that she's just like mom.
And those big booty those big booty Instagram models were
not like mom.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
No, they were not most I could say most definitely.
They were not.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Fade flannel sleeves cut off. That was my kissing gold chain,
freaking air Force one. Sorry man, it's the number one
story in America and we got to cover it. Okay, yeah,
we do. I mean absolutely. Do you know, just because
Justin Herbert is not dating Sidney Sweeney, you know.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
That'd be sweet if he did, well, it.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Would certainly change the dynamic of charging.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Guite, no doubt.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Come on, Herbert, why don't you get your wick out?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Help us out. It's Sweeney would swoon over you.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
We're sending me. We're sending you to the Viceroy's Popular
thirty years ago. Maybe somebody's there for you.

It is time for the top story of the next
story of it.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
This is just something I found sort of funny as
I was thinking about it last night. Mother scratching the
screen as I was watching the Dodgers Dude Diddley poop
through the first seven innings.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Upset, I'm Matt. You didn't like seeing Kenlly Jansen come
in and blow them away at the end. I didn't
and blow him away like the Delta Force.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
I didn't like it. I didn't like seeing Soriano pull
it out and whip it around in their face for
six innings.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Oh you should have heard the dazzler. That dazzler was
having the time of his life.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
I bet he was dazzling. I can tell you the
Dodger broadcast had no dazzle to it. It was quite upset.
I pushed back on this regularly, and it's an interesting
sort of Uh, well, there's nothing to be happy about.
There's nothing enjoyable about the way Dodgers are playing base
right now since the All Star break, and even really
prior to the All Start break, that seven game losing streak.
(14:05):
So I now have to play in my brain the
as long as it works out in October. Who cares?
And that's what's kind of funny about my typical unicorns
and confetti glass half full position versus the dark cloud,
wet blanket glass.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Half empty usually. You know, I mean, you've self scouted
like any good football program, and you know that you
don't want to do what everybody thinks you're gonna do.
So when people are down on the Dodgers, you're up
like we are going to be in Thousand Oaks on Friday.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Up.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
And when people are up on the Dodgers, you're down
like we're gonna be down in Orange County tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Let's balance it out. That's what we do on the pen.
We make you think on a Petro some money show.
Because you know, I'm regularly preaching year in and year out, hey,
enjoy the regular season. I've heard that before every year, seemingly.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
Like we all they have the present. You know that,
Pat O'Brien, you can't do anything about Yes, that's nothing,
it's gone. It's got tomorrow. You know know that right now,
right now, And that's your message, mat and it's effective.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
The Dodgers, i would say, are playing inspiring baseball. They're
doing incredible things, live in the moment, take joy from
it instead of the dumbasses who scream don't care unless
they do it in October. None of this matters. Let
me wake me up October first, and that what.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
We say here matters.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Yeah yeah, well, shoe on other foot. Script flipped. Now,
those same people who had no interest in celebrating the
winning over the course of one sixty two are no
longer saying who cares because they're not winning, they're losing.
(15:53):
So you would think that group of people's mantra would
be the same. I don't care they're losing. All I
care about wait me up October first. It's all good
as long as they're in the postseason. I have no
worries about in August, in July swoon. The team is
built for the postseason. If it gets sideways in the postseason,
we can start our bitch session. Because I've never cared
(16:14):
about the regular season in the past. I've always ignored
regular season success. But now, all of a sudden, that
same group of people incredibly hostile, incredulous, feisty, pissed off
to all ends about this three hundred and fifty million
dollars payroll playing like absolute garbage. They can't hit with
(16:34):
runners in scoring position. They can't get anyone in the
bullpen to hold a lead or close a game. A
guy who's supposed to be a cy young candidate and
one of the most enjoyable pitchers to watch is hovering
around five hundred just have the worst outing of his
MLB career. Six runs to the Angels, no less and
less than five innings, a disastrous fifth inning with literally
(16:56):
zero runs, literally zero runs support from a lineup that
has three MVPs at the top, followed by three more
all stars that combine to man the top six slots,
zero runs, trailing seven to nothing in the seventh before
they would get on the board. It's a bad watch.
(17:16):
It's a bad listen, not bad, that's right, it's a bummer.
It's been over a month, twelve and nineteen in their
last thirty one games, a potential to get swept, to
get handed a season sweep by a second club. The
Angels know less if they don't get this thing figured
(17:37):
out tonight with Emmit Shean on the mound, followed by
our summer tour stop at Brewery X that will lead
into Shoe hal Tani's the first ever start as a
pitcher at Angel Stadium as a Dodger tomorrow. I mentioned
it yesterday, pill bring it up again. They're a wild
card team playing the sixth seed. As it stands right now,
the Mets in a wild card best of three all
(18:00):
games at Dodger Stadium, keep losing. They're only a game
up on the Padres, and if they slip out of
the division lead, they would not be the four seed.
They would right now be the five seed and have
to travel to Wrigley Field like the Padres are currently
scheduled to do.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Come on, Kober, They're gonna they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll beat
the crap out a Dave, no doubt, like they hate
up that Pacers fan outside of Madison Square Garden.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
That's what's gonna happen to Dave. And we can't afford
for that to happen to Dave. He's a father, He's
gotta pay a mortgage. They will play a Cubs team
that swept them at Wrigley this season then have won
four in a row against the Dodgers after the Dodgers
swept them out in Japan to start the season. U
there is no way they're catching the Brewers. I mean
zero point zero chance. They're six and a half behind Milwaukee,
(18:47):
a team that swept them over their six games this season.
So if chalk holds, you're headed to American Family Field,
where right before the All Star Break, the Brewers put
it on the Dodgers to the tune of a combined
fifth fifteen to four aggregate in the three game series,
only to come here to start the post All Star
break and swept the team at Chavez Ravine. They're the
(19:09):
best team in the National League. They're running away with
that right now. And while it was in October, you
would assume there's confidence from Milwaukee having won the previous
six all six of the regular season. And the big
problem for the Dodgers you said it a minute ago,
Pee like, do they want it? You got to string
together wins in the postseason if you want to win
(19:29):
a World Series, it is it is hard to grind
out four rounds of the playoffs. With their current status,
they have not. The Dodgers have not won three games
in a row since July third, when they swept the
god awful White Sox, and after that game started their
seven game losing streak. They won two against the Giants
(19:51):
to close out the first half, then were swept. We
just mentioned it by the Brewers. The Dodgers have rotated
wins and losses from July twenty nine to August sixth,
and it's not like they were playing top tier competition.
That was the Reds, the Rays, and the Cardinals. Meanwhile,
the team that's just a game behind them right now,
the Padres. They're riding a six game wins. They had
(20:13):
a six game win streak earlier. They're riding a three
game win streak right now. The Phillies have won three
in a row, dropped one and are now on a
four game win streak. And the aforementioned Brewers have won
ten in a row. Meanwhile, the Dodgers have not.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Every other's a little amen to b with the mint?
What the ball in it? With a ball in it?
Speaker 2 (20:37):
There's an mn TOB That's what they're facing. All of
those teams are streaking as the chase for home field advantage,
the chase for division titles, the chase for priority in
the wild card round. Well, remember, since they made it
six teams qualifying for the postseason. Every single game is
(20:58):
played at the High Steeds Field so the folks that
would complain about celebrating regular season wins would say, well,
today's August twelfth, Who cares, not six weeks before the
playoffs start. But I think this is the problem why
everybody's fire is so stalked, because we were told to
(21:19):
be patient.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
I've been stalked and poked, and there's no more fire.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
We were told, Hey, Blake Snell's coming back, Okay, Tyler
Glasnew's coming They are back, and they're pitching well exactly.
Max Munsey's coming back. He's banging dongers months mon are Man. Oh,
Blake trying, he's not doing well. But all three of
those guys are back and they're all playing great, and
(21:46):
the Dodgers are worse. So I think you got to
wonder if reality is again what you mentioned a minute ago.
There's a reason why no team has been a repeat
World Series champion since the nineties Yankees. The sport is
a grind one hundred and sixty two games in one
hundred and eighty five days. The postseason is so damn
(22:09):
intense because of the nature of baseball. An individual head
to head with an opponent, while your team depends on
just you. It is your individual performance that helps team success.
You get zero help from anybody else, zero, and that
is mentally taxing. You're playing around ten to fifteen more
(22:29):
games than everyone else. The exhale is going to be
considerably greater when you win it all because of how
hard it is to win a World Series. So it
was last night a lack of focus from Yama, the
guy who single handedly, for the most part, put the
Dodgers in the position to win the World Series with
that Game five gem against the Padres, because most intimated
(22:52):
whoever won that series was gonna win the World Series
if they were the two best teams in baseball. And
here's where we insert this one. Because Major League Baseball
has such a dumb ass playoff structure, they're almost assured
to never face each other in the NLCS because one
will win the division the other will be a wildcard team.
So when you accomplish that on the national stage, as
Yama Mota did, and you show up to Anahe'm on
(23:13):
a Monday with the MLB leading strikeout lineup, and you
look at that start time and you're like, six thirty eight.
What kind of bush league are we in?
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Right now? Wow, Matt, You're blaming the start time.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Woo, maybe it's just not happening.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Well, that's some real gymnastics.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Because it was not happening for Yama last night. He
did not look a damn.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
They're manipulating they're manipulating his who he pitches against. I
don't think they wanted him to pitch against the Padres again.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
He got that extra day off.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
Yeah, he because the Padres. I don't think I've seen
him this year, and they're trying to like keep that
as a thing for whatever reason.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Chess versus checkers is what you're telling me.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Yeah, they're way ahead on that, but that doesn't excuse
the performance.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
As you said, No, his worst one of his major
league career.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
Sotani's getting sued and trying to steal.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Third right two hundred and forty million bucks Hawaiian high
end realty. Meanwhile, the lineup couldn't touch Soriano two hits
over six innings. Two the day before, Shoheo, Tani and
Mookie Bets could not tie or win a game against
a rookie reliever who inherited the bases loaded, sported a
(24:25):
six era, struck out Altani and got a weak ass groundout.
To end the game from Bets rookie six era bases loaded,
one out. Dodgers lose that game by one. His last outing,
the Angel Soriano lasted four innings and gave up seven
runs in four innings. That's it, seven runs in those
four innings. And last night against the Dodgers, Otani bets Freeman, Smith,
(24:50):
Muncy Hernandez two hits, zero runs. Tonight they get a
twenty four year old Cuban as an opener. That's Freeman.
Can you maintain this one game lead that was once
eight and a half Now?
Speaker 1 (25:07):
I don't know, Matt. They don't seem like they're very hungry.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
No, which is why it's okay for someone who routinely
I'm giving myself permission to hold this position. Good job, right,
thank you. I had a negotiation before we came out
of the year in this last commercial break, uh, which
is why I think it's okay for me, okay to
say this is unacceptable because I've been the one who
(25:32):
celebrated the regular season success in the past.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Those of you who could say even Matt Smith is frustrated.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Right, the other people that said they didn't care about
the regular season, that they don't want to hear it
that all that matters is the playoffs and and wake
me up, Wake me up when it's October.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
No, tell me about it. I don't want to hear it.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Right, think, guess what, no bitchin man, This is a
no bitchin zone.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
What about if they say Elik Andre team was not hungry.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
That's right, you better bring him some comina. Let me
come on ringing the comino bell. All right, Triernal's comina.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
They are not hungry. And it is hard to watch because.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
It really sucks to watch. I can only imagine how
miserable it was listening to the dazzler doing his dazzling
Oh taking a victory last.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Jazz hands all the way home from Anaheim. Of course,
the Chicago guy mentioned the Chicago Bears. He got that
in there like the angel fans care why because he's
a Chicago dazzler.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Who cares? The Dazzler Yeah, this is important to me.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
He takes his own poetic license as he dazzles, and
we'll be back with mar We got your dead and

(29:39):
for the Dead Guy Birthday of the.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
Day, Your Dead Guy Berthday today, Sid Bernstein Happy. It
would have been one hundred and seventh to Sid, a
man who changed quite well, not literally, but was as
responsible for changing American music as anyone out there forever.
How he was a promoter. He was the author of
the British Invasion, brought over the Beatle, brought over the Stones,
(30:01):
the Kings, the moody Blues, Herman's Hermits, which led to
a shift in America books.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
People don't give herms the love they deserve.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
It now they do not, and they should.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
They don't show Herms Herms the love but I know Clow.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Will Oh, you know, no doubt you're getting a text
on that one. He ushered in a full rock and
roll movement. He was born in the big town, adopted,
went to Columbia, studied journalism, Greatest Generation so World War
Two seers six hundred and second Anti Aircraft Artillery Gun Battalion.
He was in the Yes and when he gets back
(30:34):
to New York immediately dives into the music scene. He
was a booking agent for Chubby Schecker, worked for General
Artist Corporation and a big Anglo file. So as someone
who was way ahead of the masses, he reached out
in nineteen sixty three to Beatles manager Brian Epstein after
(30:54):
reading repeatedly about the group in several British rags, and
Sid convinced.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Abe, I've read about you in several British rags.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
Mister Epstein, a skeptical Epstein, who had no interest in
trying to conquer the as.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
Interested in going over that ocean, said.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Leave it to me, epp, I can book you a
successful US tour. So he booked Carnegie Hall without telling
the venue what type of music it was that would
be coming into play. In December nineteen sixty three was
still believe it was a string quartet that were anticipating.
In December of nineteen sixty three, the still unknown Beatles
(31:34):
made their US debut thanks to Sid a little bit
of a warm up gig in tiny Tidewater, Virginia. For
two weeks straight. He pounded the local radio stations and
papers with music and stories and T shirts and ticket giveaways,
and it became an event that planted the seeds. In
New York City. January of nineteen sixty four, prepping for
(31:57):
Carnegie Hall, he booked what You're Hearing in the Background,
The Ed Sullivan Show Feb twelve, nineteen sixty four, Ed
Sullivan Show. The two shows were three days later, and
Beatlemania was on because of our man six.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Bernstein is stick with the test market, you know, like
that like they did with the UPA.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Ran to test this in Barstone and then we'll go nationwide. Yes, Tidewater,
Virginia was the test market before the Carnegie Hall shows
and the Ed Sullivan Show. Bernstein is also the guy
who booked the famous Shay Stadium shows, the last Beatles
shows in nineteen sixty five as well. And how about
this at those shows for hours, as crowds had packed
(32:41):
in multiple hours before the Beatles hit the stage. He
peppered the audience with images on the scoreboards that read
the Rascals are coming. The Rascals a band he was managing,
and over and over again, much to the protest of
Beatles manager the afore mentioned Brian Epstein. After the shows,
it led to a deal for the Rascals with Atlanta.
(33:02):
With Atlantic, they were the first ever white only act
to be signed by the label nice. He also got
them booked on Ed Sullivan. We're the Rascals and well,
everybody thought they were a black band because they were
on Atlantic, and then all of a sudden they show
up on Ed Sullivan and bang number one hit with
Good Lovin. Thanks to his relationships with the Fab four,
Paul McCartney helped him promote the shows in the UK
was so excited about their debut in December of sixty
(33:24):
six he went to Both Knights at the Scotch of
Saint James Club, leading to the Rascals becoming a household
name across the pond. Grooven went to number one as well,
and Sid had his own and blowing up. He still
booked though still brought over all the other bands, the
ones I mentioned before Stone's US debut, Kim Sorbs and
(33:44):
Our Man. Sid was the guy who helped promote black
artists in white venues. James Brown said Sid was quote
the man at the forefront of race relations in music
in the US throughout the sixties, so seems like an
all around stand up dude. Bernstein the first promoter to
book a rock concert at Madison Square Garden Creams Farewell
(34:06):
Tour November two, nineteen sixty eight, and because he always
wanted to be on the stage, ping in the spotlight.
In twenty twelve, at ninety three years old, he released
Sid Bernstein Presents, his own album of covers, Wow Happy
one hundred and seven. Sid Bernstein, I call.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
This one help.
