Master's program. Find out more and cuidt U slash coach
your final hour of fun fact. Did you know the
famous Main Street electrical parade did not start at Disneyland. Instead,
Disney I did not first, nor did I. The first
showing of all the places of the electric parade was
(03:57):
used to celebrate the opening of Disney's Polynesian Resort in
October of nineteen seventy one. It was their grand opening.
They had the electrical parade and everyone was like, it
was pretty cool, we should do this at Disneyland.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Where was the Polynesian Resort?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
I believe if I remember right, I think the Polynesian
was a like at a hotel and all inclusive hotel.
I don't know because thelan that was neither. I'm sorry,
but the new very Don McLain, what's the new one
called the Alaane is on O Wahoo. The new one
is on O Wahoo. So maybe they just updated the
(04:37):
Polynesian Resort.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Which one's the one with a train that is on
that is?
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
We had a guy I think on from Hilton or
Marriott and I said, how's that train and he's like,
that's at our competitor. That was the Marriott. I believe
that has the train on Kona. Disney's Polynesian Village Resort
is a disney World.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Okay, So it's in Orlando, so it's not on the island.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
I'm very merry on birthday to you. Well all right,
well tell me about it. No, I guess that makes sense.
Then it's been there since nineteen seventy one. That's what
we just said. It was the grand opening, so that
would line up. It's the Polynesian hotel resort kind of
thing that said disney World.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
So you always feel like Disneyland's the og on everything,
but not in this case.
Speaker 4 (05:25):
No, but I'm very upset. I didn't know it was
like just a resort that was on the disney World property.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
I thought it was like they ran all those lights
over to the island mac and all.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
Excited because they got the big Disneyland property over there
that everybody goes to in Hawaii. And I was like, oh,
maybe it was the original before they updated it to
the a Luna or whatever the hell they call that thing.
But now it's just a just a hotel property. I
might drive by it to this Yeah, go check it out.
Let the people know. Hey, all use this is really
(05:56):
electrics where it started? Now now we tell any one right now,
idiot right here. I do know that down there they
have a hotel called the Contemporary where the monorail used
to go through the lobby in the middle. I remember that,
so I guess that Vallad.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
That's what I want with my hotel. It's a train
going to come through. Living with the Blues Brothers. Still there, Matt,
still there, look at that. It's time you had that.
It's time. Got that going for me for the quickets,
Toms quicketsme available. Yeah, still basking in the glow of
(06:33):
the Dodgers celebration. Max Munsey went on Foul Territory Today,
one of those podcasts, and was asked about the fourth
inning benches clearing incident in Game seven, where Justin Robleski
did not get kicked out for hitting a batter, but
Mounsey said he almost did.
Speaker 7 (06:51):
Reaction was like, hell, yeah, don't back down to this guy,
go get him. And then immediately I was like, oh crap,
we need him to stay in this game. He's gotta
throw some more back. So I was like, I got
to get him out of there.
Speaker 5 (07:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
My initial reaction was yeah, go get him, go get him.
But then I was like, oh man, we got to
get We got to make sure he stays in this game.
And you know, thankfully, the umpires all came up to
me and they're like, if you didn't get him out
of there, we were probably gonna have to toss him, you know,
because you know how that goes with the instigation rules.
If you're the guy that instigates it, then you're usually
the one that gets tossed, even though even though it's
(07:23):
not your fault. And so, you know, I knew we
needed him for at least one or two, maybe three
more batters just based on that part of the lineup,
and I was, you know, so I was like, I
got to get him out of there and make sure
he stays in this game. And I talked to him
the next day and he was like, yeah, I appreciate it.
You know, first, I think he was a little taking
him back that I was not letting him get in
the fight. But you know, it's he he he had
(07:44):
that mentality the whole postseason. Every time he pitched, he
he was coming after you. He didn't care who you were.
And you know, that's that's part of the part of
the things that I love about our pictures is they
start getting that attitude that they're gonna attack you and
they don't care and he has the right attitude to have,
but sometimes you have to have someone you know, pull
you out of there.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
To do my best.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
Don McClain, Tim Kates, who monitored that interview and pulled
that sound. Did he address the bush league nature of
Jiminez sticking his hand out there trying to get hit
that led to the bean ball?
Speaker 2 (08:14):
And that's not what I read. I don't think there
was a follow up to that.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
Now, how about that bush league move by Jiminez man
sticking his hand out there, Jim and Z exactly right, Hey, hey, Jiminez.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
He med uh congratulations to Yoshi Yamamoto, finalists for the
cy Young and Shohatani, finalists for MVP. Speaking the Japanese pitchers,
Matt you Darvish is gonna miss twenty twenty six with
the UCL surgery and his pitching elbow. Second time, he
said Tommy John surgery. The last time was about ten
(08:50):
years ago. If he returns to pitch, it would be
in twenty twenty seven at age forty.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
I think he could probably do the Padres a favor
and just retire, Maybe come up with an injury settlement,
get the salary off their books so they can go
out and spend more money on somebody else and not
get into the luxury tax. I think they were all
kind of hopeful that he was going to retire, and
this certainly seems to we'll magnify that situation since he
(09:16):
en I'm gonna be able to pitch next year.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
We will keep you posting. Uh. USC number twenty now
six and two, four and one in the Big Ten
is home Friday versus Northwestern Trujanser fourteen and a half
point favorites. So we got in that one. I not
ready yet. Fight fight all I've read. That's not what
(09:38):
I read. I would say maybe maybe sc fight, don't
fight all, fight all. You got coward, you got connotation
in town. I think he's gonna win. But that's a
that's a. I mean I got burned by that Notre
Dame number, which was twice as large. Anyway, UCLA is
three and five, they're three and two into Big Ten.
They're on an off week. They host the team that
(10:00):
USC just beat Nebraska this Saturday. No Dylan Rayola for
the Huskers, and the Bruins are two and a half
point faith.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
What was the stat they showed after USC beat Matt
Rule He is now zero and twenty against ranked teams,
zero and twenty for if ever, people fighting for his
service at Penn State, right right, zero and twenty.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
We like this guy. We're going to extend.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
We gotta go. Hey, we got to keep this guy
locked up. They're gonna come get him. Everybody's gonna be
lining up to get him.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
The exciting whites of the Lakers are six and two.
Come on, they've won four in a row.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
About last night, man, no Reeves, no Doncic, no Lebron,
no problem.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
They're back at it tonight versus Wimby and the Spurs.
The Clippers are three and three, second night of a
back to back. They host Oklahoma City, the defending champs,
tonight here on am FI seventy tip off is it eight?
This well? As Don McLean said, and he'll tell you
on Thursday, all becaust some of them.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
I'm starting slow, so just slow start for the old guys.
Usually they had everybody out there. Still lost last night
by one Miami heat at the busser.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
It's not like Miami played the night before. Yeah, they
actually did poured it out to try to beat the Lakers. Yeah, okay,
Uh Matt there's more.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
Oh, let's talk lawsuits. Aspiration and the Investors have filed
a lawsuit against Clipper's owner Balmer Steve Balmer over the
Kawhi Leonard scandal. The suit claims Balmer used a twenty
eight million dollars no show deal between Kawhi and Aspiration
in order to get around the NBA salary cap rules.
He is being sued by eleven Aspiration investors. According to
(11:48):
the lawsuit, Balmer channeled funds through Aspiration in order to
quote induce Leonard to re sign with the Clippers by
covertly paying him more than allowed by the NBA salary
cap room rules. Balmer was quote complicit in and aided
and embedded in the fraud. The lawsuit reads, WHOA Plaineffs
also alleged that Balmer transferred other funds to the company
(12:11):
in order to keep it afloat and buy co founder
Joe Sandberg's support, cooperation, and silence about the secret deal
with Leonard.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
So this isn't Pablo Torri just doing a podcast. This
is real allegation.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
Yeah, this is investors that lost all their cash when
Aspiration went bankrupt and are trying to figure out how
to dip into Balmer's multi billion dollar pockets to see
if they can, you know, get a little something for
the f A little bit of a blackmail action here,
all right, I'm a little something. Ah well, call it blackmail, Matt.
This is a real lawsuit, I mean, you know. And
it says that they wanted to buy Sandberg's silence. Seems
(12:51):
like Balmer had to, you know, forgot some cash. So
a guy wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Already go chirping, Matt. We do have Tom Tolesco chirping
with us. In the next segment, out some of the
NFL trade deadlines.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
Though big ones top five picks, the Jets trade two
of them. Quinn Williams, one of the best defensive tackles
in the game, goes to the Cowboys. Sauce Gardner in
the conversation, is the best corner in the game. We'll
go to the Colts and the Saints traded Rashid Shahed
to the Seahawks. The Raiders moved Jacoby Myers to the Jags.
The Chargers picked up Trevor Penning. Oh it's right there,
(13:25):
Trevor Penny from the New Orleans Saints, and traded away
Joshsir Taylor two those aforementioned Jets. Penning has played tackle
and guard. See whether or not they want him as
a replacement for Joe Alt at that left tackle position.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
The Rams playing the forty nine ers on Sunday. They're
playing well, they're six and two. We'll get more of
that from our old friend Tom to Leasco from Sirious
Exam NFL Radio Net.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
We've made it even easier to take LA Sport. What's
with you this summer?
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Make AM five to seventy or your favorite AM five
seventy LA Sports podcast a preset on the iHeartRadio app
using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Road Trip all summer with LA Sports that.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Shows some money.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
AM five seventy LA Sports Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
We'll see at BJ's Restaurant in brew House on Monday,
that is Serritos right off the six so O five
at South Street. We'll be there from three until six
thirty pm, going into Clippers basketball, not into Monday Night football,
so a later than typical start for us for our
BJ's appearance three to six thirty pm this Monday, BJ's
(14:33):
Restaurant in brew House in Soritos.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Well with the big NFL trade talk. You could hear
him tonight on Serious XM NFL Radio at five o'clock
Boo Ball. But we are making a preemptive strike to
talk to our friend Tom Telesco. Yeah, I gotta have
anything left to talk about. Long time front office man
Charter GM, Raider GM. He's helping out with the Corona
(14:58):
Del Mar football team. They have Round one of the
playoffs against the one seed, the Myriatta Valley Nighthawks CDM
Corona Del Mar c Kings versus Nighthawks on Friday night.
So joining us right now on your Toyota Dealers Celebrity
Hotline is the very measured, the very revered friend of
(15:21):
the show, Tom Telesco on Petrosen Money. What's cracking?
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Tom?
Speaker 5 (15:25):
How are you hey, guys, Good afternoon.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Good afternoon to you. Tom. Tell us a little bit
about this later trade deadline. It seems to have changed
a lot of things for NFL teams.
Speaker 5 (15:39):
Yeah, I really has. And in twenty twelve it was
week six with the trade deadline, and they move it
to week eight, and then about i'd say two or
three years ago, I moved to where it is now
right after week nine, going into Week ten, and that
just gives teams more opportunity to see exactly where they
are in the season, whether they're on their way up
(16:00):
or on their way down, and make a decision to
make a move or not. And I think that's just
bought more activity. As you saw today today the amount
of trades, they were about the same as last year
and about the same as the last couple of years.
But it's really it's it's obviously there's that quick, fixed
mentality for a lot of these trades because a lot
of them are one year rentals. But I think right now,
(16:22):
while you're seeing there's a lot of teams that can
accumulate draft picks via other trades or draft day trades
or the compensory pick system, it gives them more ammunition
they like this to make a move. So, but the
big thing today was what the Jets did. Those those
are not typical trade deadline type trades, but just a
lot of activity today.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
Yeah, you mentioned the Jets two former top five picks.
I mean, players that are considered the best at their positions.
D line corner. Why is it that some positions are
traded and others aren't. What is it about defensive line.
It seems like every year you get a couple pass
rushers that are going to move or interior alignment feels
like running backs get traded by receivers get traded. What
(17:01):
is it about that position? And like old lineman almost
never move at the trade deadline? Is there something to
certain positions moving and others not.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Yeah, a big part of the supply and demand, I
mean offensive line wise. If you have a tackle on
your team, even if he's your third tackle or depth tackle,
you don't want to trade them. They're so hard to find.
That's why with the Chargers they had offensive line needs
at the trade deadline. It's so hard to find anybody
that will trade you a tackle who can play. And
they got lucky enough to make a trade for Trevor Penning.
(17:32):
But there just isn't a lot out there, So you
don't see a lot of trades for offerensive linemen. But
at positions where there's a little bit more bigger pool
running back, safeties a lot of times, usually outside corners
never available at the trade deadline. Usually nickel corners are
just because there aren't a lot outside corners. Obviously, the
sauce gardener thing is an anomaly. But you see a
(17:53):
lot of pass rushers at the trade deadline, and usually
they're more towards the end of their career. They come
in for one year rental, give a little bit extra
pass rush down the stretch, but it all comes down
to supply and demand.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
How Tom just speaking to the Chargers, you know, for
a while there they were on tackle number six and seven.
Bobby Hard who hadn't started games since twenty twenty one,
got a few starts out there. You drafted justin Herbert.
How do they overcome not not having you know, Rashaun
Slater and now Joe Alt and trying to you know,
(18:23):
build on what they did last year winning eleven games.
Speaker 5 (18:27):
Well, it's going to be extremely difficult and it's gonna
be a challenge. But you know, there's different ways to
look at it. I mean number one is, you know,
where else can we bring a player in? And they
went out and traded for Trevor Penning, who's you know,
these you know, six six six, three hundred and fifteen pounds,
really tough, physical, strong mentality. Didn't fare as well at
tackle with the Saints. That moved him inside the guard
(18:49):
and we'll see where the Chargers end up playing him.
But what they're going to have to do a lot
of this, it's gonna have to be scheme based. You're
gonna have to leave the tight ends a little in
a little bit more to help block. You're gonna have
to keep keep the running backs into You're gonna have
to move the pocket more. There's just certain things scheme wise,
you're gonna have to do right now to protect Justin
just because look, when you get to your fifth, sixth,
seventh tackle, I mean, obviously there's gonna be a drop
(19:10):
off in talent and you just can't go and go
get another player at this point in the season. So
there's certainly when they can really play and start. So
Greg Roman's gon to have to be creative with the
pass protection, moving the pocket, and probably doing a lot
more max protections to protect the quarterback.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
He's been running around like crazy. Justin Herbert, we look
like a college quarterback against Tennessee taking off. How sustainable
is that? Or I guess that's why they went out
and found some Moralline.
Speaker 5 (19:39):
Well, yeah, you have to pick your spots, and I
think Justin Dio a pretty good job of picking the
spots and when he wants to run and when it's
time to slide, or when it's time just you know,
just eat it, just take a sack and go down.
But obviously the hits in the pocket over time, they're
not sustainable. But it's also part of the position. And
he's a big, strong, physical player and he's built to
(20:01):
take somebody. Says. All quarterbacks get hit, all at different rates.
But part of that position is having a durability to
handle some of that punishment that comes with it. And
the good thing about Justin is he's smart enough to
know when to go down and when to go get
to extra yards. You saw last week against the Titans.
There are some opportunities that he just went out and
got after it because he had to. And it was
(20:22):
great seeing the bench all get excited when they see
him Justin put a shoulder down and try and knock
somebody down. Now, at a GM, you don't like to
see that very often, but I guess people going and
he's outstanding at it.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
What is it about trying to keep old lignement healthy?
You mentioned it, Tom, If you have it, you don't
want to get rid of your third one. A lot
of teams I want to get rid of their fourth
one because guys, these tackles get injured pretty regularly. Is
there a way around that? Is it brace? Wearing braces?
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Is it? Like?
Speaker 4 (20:48):
What is it that you could maybe doup to prevent
as many O line injuries as we see year in
and year out.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
Yeah, I know at the college level they can mandate
players where knee braces. At the level, it's very difficult
to do. And in the end, like a knee brace,
it's not going to protect you from ACL. It could
protect your health a little bit from MCL injury, But
in the end, what you have to look at is
who if your filter of who you're bringing in, who
you're signing is free agents, who you're signing after the
draft is free agents, and who you're drafting, and if
(21:19):
teams want to, you know, draft the player with the
long injury history or chronic issues in college. A lot
of times those same issues come through in the pros.
But look, some of these are just bad luck. Joe
Walt has been very healthy through his college career. Rashaun
Slater is very healthy in his college career. So some
of these you just can't there's nothing you can do about.
But as a whole your philosophy. There may be some
(21:41):
players you really like in the draft. We just feel
like there's some durability questions and it'd be better off
the pass because availability is the most important thing you
can have, certainly on the offensive line, because they're just
few and far between of having enough to go into
a season.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
With the great Tom Telesco, you can hear him on
serious at Sam NFL Radio tonight at five o'clock going
over all this trade stuff and don't forget the big
playoff game with Myriada Valley versus CDM Playoffs this week
first round, the Raiders trade Jacoby Myers to the Jaguars.
They're in a tough spot. They didn't trade Max Crosby,
(22:18):
which could have got them a load of picks. Where
are they.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
Well, they're kind of stuck in between a rebuild and
trying to still get after it this year. I didn't
see any possible way they would trade Max Crosby. And
then you know, after you actually tell Max Crosby you're
not going to trade them, obviously you're not going to
do it. I saw some rumors today because I have
to follow all this. If you're ready for the show,
tonight about Hey, maybe some teams are talking the Raiders
about Max Crosby and it, so there' about one hundred
percent chance that's not going to happen. But I can
(22:46):
see the Jacoby and Buyers one coming and they got
a great I mean to get a fourth and a
sixth round pick back for Jacoby, Buyers and Myers is it.
You know, he's in the last year of his contract,
so it's a you know, nine to ten game rental
for Jacksonville. It's a pretty good return. And you know,
Jacoby just Jacoby is a great person. He's a professional.
(23:06):
But you could sense, like you know, the trade. You know,
he didn't want to be there. He wanted to get moved.
And players just don't play as well or not as
well invested when they don't want to be somewhere. I
think that's probably why the Raiders and the they probably
didn't want to trade him, but in the end, you know,
probably was just best for them, best for the team,
and they got a great return back with the four
and a six Moving forward.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Thank you so much, Tom, that's wonderful stuff. We hope
we didn't wreck you for your show tonight, but have
a great show. And we'll talk to you soon. The
Great Tom Toe, Let's go, and good luck on Friday.

(24:43):
forget Monday. We are live at BJ's. We hope it's
clear skys so you can get out to Soritos at
our BJS from three to six thirty, right before Clipper basketball.
It's one of our favorite locales. We have prizes on site.
We got it all, Matt.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
We love Cerrito well and it's a little bonus for
the listeners because typically we're going into Monday night football
and that means it's a flex alert and we're on
two to five and we're trying to negotiate with Miss
January about getting the happy hour moved up an hour.
But in this case, no, BJ's Happy hour starts at three,
goes until nine, and we'll be there from three to
(25:17):
six thirty. We'll get to watch the first half of
the Monday night football game together. Clippers doing us a
solid and you know, they really take care of us,
don't they that that Clipper ship. So it'll be three
to six thirty, not our typical two to five going
into Monday or Thursday night football.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Double rations for you guys here on the Clipper Show,
So come see us.
Speaker 4 (25:36):
It'll be our first appearance of many at BJ's restaurant
and brew house between now week ten and the end
of the NFL season week eighteen.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Yeah, I'm going to Fresno next week. And that's why
I was going to have dinner. Now I don't have to.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
No, Now you get this squared away just fast until Monday,
and then get the Porkopolis flatbread. It'll be great to
hoorner Andy Pahas blowing up Key k Hernez in center
field in Game seven. We will honor a Cuban man
who plays for the Dodgers by honoring a Cuban musician.
(26:10):
Let's celebrate Carlos Potato Valdez, the great Cuban conga player,
would have been ninety nine years old today. Also known
as well, he was Patato because he was short.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
That's the one that stuck. El Toro was his nickname
as a young dancer and boxer. He was also known
as El Zombie or Zombito or Pecano Zombie because how
famous He made the Zombie Club in Havana when he
played there. But as I said, thought it was because
(26:45):
he was the undead.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
No.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
He died at eighty one twelve thirteen years ago, but
the Zombie Club was a big thing. I guess from
a music family. He mastered percussion at a young age,
played with many greats in the forties, and by the
(27:08):
fifties he was touring the world, especially New York City,
and he was attracted by America's jazz scene in New York.
So he left Cuba in nineteen fifty four, basically was
exiled because of what happened there, and recorded with Everybody,
I mean everybody, Tito Puente, Art, Blakey, Max Roach. He
(27:29):
toured Africa and Europe. He toured Europe with Dizzy Gillespie
and Quincy Joel. He even acted and appeared and played
on the Bill Cosby show WHOA which was a great
show for jazz. Did he ever play with Dave cos
You know, it's not beyond the realm of possibility. He
(27:51):
lived till super cool, He lived till like fifteen years ago.
And Cause, you know, at his time in the eighties
and nineties he might have crossed as with Cause. He
might have had cause to play with Cause and the
late I don't even know if you played with Sandborn. Oh,
come on. In the late forties, he helped develop the
first tunable congas, leading to the development of the LP
(28:15):
Potato model congas, the top selling conga drum of all time,
an Afro Cuban jazz legend, to say the least, and
cut across paths with Dave cause because he had a
sixty year career in the music scene. He died a
respiratory failure at eighty one in Cleveland, Potato Valdez. A
(28:39):
lot of things that he did that were really cool.
One of them that he did not do was knockover
Key k Hernandez while making a pivotal catch in center.
Speaker 4 (28:47):
Left and then hesitate before he helped him out in
game seven. Well, he had to look, see what's going on?
Is that out number three? Oh?
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Let me help out this young Puerto Rican. Was that
a donkey? I just ran into a bu What the
hell you're alive?
Speaker 4 (29:03):
Guy?
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Could have been a little al Penguino, which is also
what Patanto's nickname was for his dancing style. Oh yeah,
I mean, it could have been anybody, but it was
Kik the uh A live guy.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
Birthday A tip of the cap to our dear friend
Eric Carros, who is fifty eight today. Happy birthday, k
It is also your mate A real Barry Krakker's birthday
today celebrated in this space last year, and we learned
the term a real Barry Kraka.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
It's unfortunately we're not going back to that.
Speaker 4 (29:32):
We are because I figured I would do something to
support our hesher audience today, Kates, please thank you give
me that Metropolis Part two from Breaking the Fourth Wall
by Dream Theater. Every metal band's favorite metal band, and
(29:53):
today we celebrate Jordan Rutis their cheese player. Do you
play keys for a metal band and you got something
special going on on them? Fingers at yours man. He
has sixty nine today. Born in Great Neck, New York.
At child prodigy on piano, began his professional instruction when
(30:14):
he was seven. At nine, he was granted admission at
nine to the Juilliard School of Music, where he trained
and worked under their best teachers and performers. He was
expected to become the next great American classical pianist, but
he got his hands on some deep purple vinyl.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
He was like John Lord, blowing my mind.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
He took the prop path, much to his parents his
tutor's protests.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Wow, he reterned. He like the guy in School of Rock.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
Yes, his first band complex actually was with one of
his Juilliard Instructors, who was like, I like what you're doing,
kid with you. He and Joseph Lyons The New York
Times loved them. They put out a record, They got
a residency at the Lexington Conservatory Theater. Floyd asked, and
(31:11):
by Floyd, I mean Pink Floyd, not Pink Floyd. Pink
Floyd asked if he wanted to be part of the
sessions for scoring Bring the Boys Back Home on the Walls.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
They were amazing.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
His work was not accepted by producer Bob Ezrind. He
did a bunch of session for hier gigs throughout the eighties,
put out some solo records. In ninety four, he was
voted best Talent by Keyboard magazine and their readers poll
following the release of his solo album Listen. So there
was a fight for the Rudis Keys. The Dixie Dregs
(31:42):
and Dream Theater both asked him to join, but He's like, nah, man,
I'm into my solo career. The Dregs were like, we'll
just let you go part time, so we did. He
and his drummer Rod Morgenstein hit it off. They started
the Rudis Morgenstein Project, known as RMP by the prog
rockers Ooh. Not offended by his declining their invitation, Dream
(32:03):
Theater offered the duo their support slot on the North
American tour. In ninety seven, Mike Portnoy, a man behind
Dream Theater, was asked to form a supergroup and he
wanted Rudis to join Liquid Tension Experiment. Oh come on,
what a band did two albums there, and this time
Portnoy wasn't taken no for an answer. They wanted him
in Dream Theater and he agreed, and since ninety nine,
(32:24):
in this album p Metropolis Part two Scenes from a Memory,
he has been part of Dream Theater. Rudis stumbling upon
a piano in Lax during the Christmas season and deciding
to tickle the keys. Not just a metal guy, huh,
(32:44):
A little prog rock version of White Christmas.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
It's like Nordstrom.
Speaker 4 (32:49):
Here are some of the album titles B six Degrees
of Innerturbulence, Systematic Chaos, The Astonishing from the Top of
the World, and this year twenty twenty five's Parasomnia. That's
what we're talking about with our man. Rudish started on
(33:12):
a Kurtzwheel, then he got to a Cord. He has
a role in key tar that he'll break out at
their live performances from time to time.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
An LP potato conga, the greatest selling conga of all time.
It's too talk about meeting.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
He is a very successful businessman in the world of music,
software and app use I guess he's got a lot
of stuff that make noises for your keyboards to upload
software patches and stuff like that. And he has arguably
the greatest neck go tee. Oh not a neck beard,
but a neck go tee, got it, that I've ever seen.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Jordan rudis fabulous. All right, that's it for us. Thank
you to Ronnie at Ronnie Fossil. He'll post the playlist,

Over five thousand coaches and administrators have graduated from their

your final hour of fun fact. Did you know the
famous Main Street electrical parade did not start at Disneyland. Instead,
Disney I did not first, nor did I. The first
showing of all the places of the electric parade was
(03:57):
used to celebrate the opening of Disney's Polynesian Resort in
October of nineteen seventy one. It was their grand opening.
They had the electrical parade and everyone was like, it
was pretty cool, we should do this at Disneyland.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Where was the Polynesian Resort?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
I believe if I remember right, I think the Polynesian
was a like at a hotel and all inclusive hotel.
I don't know because thelan that was neither. I'm sorry,
but the new very Don McLain, what's the new one
called the Alaane is on O Wahoo. The new one
is on O Wahoo. So maybe they just updated the
(04:37):
Polynesian Resort.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Which one's the one with a train that is on
that is?
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
We had a guy I think on from Hilton or
Marriott and I said, how's that train and he's like,
that's at our competitor. That was the Marriott. I believe
that has the train on Kona. Disney's Polynesian Village Resort
is a disney World.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Okay, So it's in Orlando, so it's not on the island.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
I'm very merry on birthday to you. Well all right,
well tell me about it. No, I guess that makes sense.
Then it's been there since nineteen seventy one. That's what
we just said. It was the grand opening, so that
would line up. It's the Polynesian hotel resort kind of
thing that said disney World.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
So you always feel like Disneyland's the og on everything,
but not in this case.
Speaker 4 (05:25):
No, but I'm very upset. I didn't know it was
like just a resort that was on the disney World property.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
I thought it was like they ran all those lights
over to the island mac and all.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
Excited because they got the big Disneyland property over there
that everybody goes to in Hawaii. And I was like, oh,
maybe it was the original before they updated it to
the a Luna or whatever the hell they call that thing.
But now it's just a just a hotel property. I
might drive by it to this Yeah, go check it out.
Let the people know. Hey, all use this is really
(05:56):
electrics where it started? Now now we tell any one right now,
idiot right here. I do know that down there they
have a hotel called the Contemporary where the monorail used
to go through the lobby in the middle. I remember that,
so I guess that Vallad.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
That's what I want with my hotel. It's a train
going to come through. Living with the Blues Brothers. Still there, Matt,
still there, look at that. It's time you had that.
It's time. Got that going for me for the quickets,
Toms quicketsme available. Yeah, still basking in the glow of
(06:33):
the Dodgers celebration. Max Munsey went on Foul Territory Today,
one of those podcasts, and was asked about the fourth
inning benches clearing incident in Game seven, where Justin Robleski
did not get kicked out for hitting a batter, but
Mounsey said he almost did.
Speaker 7 (06:51):
Reaction was like, hell, yeah, don't back down to this guy,
go get him. And then immediately I was like, oh crap,
we need him to stay in this game. He's gotta
throw some more back. So I was like, I got
to get him out of there.
Speaker 5 (07:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
My initial reaction was yeah, go get him, go get him.
But then I was like, oh man, we got to
get We got to make sure he stays in this game.
And you know, thankfully, the umpires all came up to
me and they're like, if you didn't get him out
of there, we were probably gonna have to toss him, you know,
because you know how that goes with the instigation rules.
If you're the guy that instigates it, then you're usually
the one that gets tossed, even though even though it's
(07:23):
not your fault. And so, you know, I knew we
needed him for at least one or two, maybe three
more batters just based on that part of the lineup,
and I was, you know, so I was like, I
got to get him out of there and make sure
he stays in this game. And I talked to him
the next day and he was like, yeah, I appreciate it.
You know, first, I think he was a little taking
him back that I was not letting him get in
the fight. But you know, it's he he he had
(07:44):
that mentality the whole postseason. Every time he pitched, he
he was coming after you. He didn't care who you were.
And you know, that's that's part of the part of
the things that I love about our pictures is they
start getting that attitude that they're gonna attack you and
they don't care and he has the right attitude to have,
but sometimes you have to have someone you know, pull
you out of there.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
To do my best.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
Don McClain, Tim Kates, who monitored that interview and pulled
that sound. Did he address the bush league nature of
Jiminez sticking his hand out there trying to get hit
that led to the bean ball?
Speaker 2 (08:14):
And that's not what I read. I don't think there
was a follow up to that.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
Now, how about that bush league move by Jiminez man
sticking his hand out there, Jim and Z exactly right, Hey, hey, Jiminez.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
He med uh congratulations to Yoshi Yamamoto, finalists for the
cy Young and Shohatani, finalists for MVP. Speaking the Japanese pitchers,
Matt you Darvish is gonna miss twenty twenty six with
the UCL surgery and his pitching elbow. Second time, he
said Tommy John surgery. The last time was about ten
(08:50):
years ago. If he returns to pitch, it would be
in twenty twenty seven at age forty.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
I think he could probably do the Padres a favor
and just retire, Maybe come up with an injury settlement,
get the salary off their books so they can go
out and spend more money on somebody else and not
get into the luxury tax. I think they were all
kind of hopeful that he was going to retire, and
this certainly seems to we'll magnify that situation since he
(09:16):
en I'm gonna be able to pitch next year.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
We will keep you posting. Uh. USC number twenty now
six and two, four and one in the Big Ten
is home Friday versus Northwestern Trujanser fourteen and a half
point favorites. So we got in that one. I not
ready yet. Fight fight all I've read. That's not what
(09:38):
I read. I would say maybe maybe sc fight, don't
fight all, fight all. You got coward, you got connotation
in town. I think he's gonna win. But that's a
that's a. I mean I got burned by that Notre
Dame number, which was twice as large. Anyway, UCLA is
three and five, they're three and two into Big Ten.
They're on an off week. They host the team that
(10:00):
USC just beat Nebraska this Saturday. No Dylan Rayola for
the Huskers, and the Bruins are two and a half
point faith.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
What was the stat they showed after USC beat Matt
Rule He is now zero and twenty against ranked teams,
zero and twenty for if ever, people fighting for his
service at Penn State, right right, zero and twenty.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
We like this guy. We're going to extend.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
We gotta go. Hey, we got to keep this guy
locked up. They're gonna come get him. Everybody's gonna be
lining up to get him.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
The exciting whites of the Lakers are six and two.
Come on, they've won four in a row.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
About last night, man, no Reeves, no Doncic, no Lebron,
no problem.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
They're back at it tonight versus Wimby and the Spurs.
The Clippers are three and three, second night of a
back to back. They host Oklahoma City, the defending champs,
tonight here on am FI seventy tip off is it eight?
This well? As Don McLean said, and he'll tell you
on Thursday, all becaust some of them.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
I'm starting slow, so just slow start for the old guys.
Usually they had everybody out there. Still lost last night
by one Miami heat at the busser.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
It's not like Miami played the night before. Yeah, they
actually did poured it out to try to beat the Lakers. Yeah, okay,
Uh Matt there's more.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
Oh, let's talk lawsuits. Aspiration and the Investors have filed
a lawsuit against Clipper's owner Balmer Steve Balmer over the
Kawhi Leonard scandal. The suit claims Balmer used a twenty
eight million dollars no show deal between Kawhi and Aspiration
in order to get around the NBA salary cap rules.
He is being sued by eleven Aspiration investors. According to
(11:48):
the lawsuit, Balmer channeled funds through Aspiration in order to
quote induce Leonard to re sign with the Clippers by
covertly paying him more than allowed by the NBA salary
cap room rules. Balmer was quote complicit in and aided
and embedded in the fraud. The lawsuit reads, WHOA Plaineffs
also alleged that Balmer transferred other funds to the company
(12:11):
in order to keep it afloat and buy co founder
Joe Sandberg's support, cooperation, and silence about the secret deal
with Leonard.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
So this isn't Pablo Torri just doing a podcast. This
is real allegation.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
Yeah, this is investors that lost all their cash when
Aspiration went bankrupt and are trying to figure out how
to dip into Balmer's multi billion dollar pockets to see
if they can, you know, get a little something for
the f A little bit of a blackmail action here,
all right, I'm a little something. Ah well, call it blackmail, Matt.
This is a real lawsuit, I mean, you know. And
it says that they wanted to buy Sandberg's silence. Seems
(12:51):
like Balmer had to, you know, forgot some cash. So
a guy wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Already go chirping, Matt. We do have Tom Tolesco chirping
with us. In the next segment, out some of the
NFL trade deadlines.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
Though big ones top five picks, the Jets trade two
of them. Quinn Williams, one of the best defensive tackles
in the game, goes to the Cowboys. Sauce Gardner in
the conversation, is the best corner in the game. We'll
go to the Colts and the Saints traded Rashid Shahed
to the Seahawks. The Raiders moved Jacoby Myers to the Jags.
The Chargers picked up Trevor Penning. Oh it's right there,
(13:25):
Trevor Penny from the New Orleans Saints, and traded away
Joshsir Taylor two those aforementioned Jets. Penning has played tackle
and guard. See whether or not they want him as
a replacement for Joe Alt at that left tackle position.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
The Rams playing the forty nine ers on Sunday. They're
playing well, they're six and two. We'll get more of
that from our old friend Tom to Leasco from Sirious
Exam NFL Radio Net.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
We've made it even easier to take LA Sport. What's
with you this summer?
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Make AM five to seventy or your favorite AM five
seventy LA Sports podcast a preset on the iHeartRadio app
using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Road Trip all summer with LA Sports that.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Shows some money.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
AM five seventy LA Sports Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
We'll see at BJ's Restaurant in brew House on Monday,
that is Serritos right off the six so O five
at South Street. We'll be there from three until six
thirty pm, going into Clippers basketball, not into Monday Night football,
so a later than typical start for us for our
BJ's appearance three to six thirty pm this Monday, BJ's
(14:33):
Restaurant in brew House in Soritos.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Well with the big NFL trade talk. You could hear
him tonight on Serious XM NFL Radio at five o'clock
Boo Ball. But we are making a preemptive strike to
talk to our friend Tom Telesco. Yeah, I gotta have
anything left to talk about. Long time front office man
Charter GM, Raider GM. He's helping out with the Corona
(14:58):
Del Mar football team. They have Round one of the
playoffs against the one seed, the Myriatta Valley Nighthawks CDM
Corona Del Mar c Kings versus Nighthawks on Friday night.
So joining us right now on your Toyota Dealers Celebrity
Hotline is the very measured, the very revered friend of
(15:21):
the show, Tom Telesco on Petrosen Money. What's cracking?
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Tom?
Speaker 5 (15:25):
How are you hey, guys, Good afternoon.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Good afternoon to you. Tom. Tell us a little bit
about this later trade deadline. It seems to have changed
a lot of things for NFL teams.
Speaker 5 (15:39):
Yeah, I really has. And in twenty twelve it was
week six with the trade deadline, and they move it
to week eight, and then about i'd say two or
three years ago, I moved to where it is now
right after week nine, going into Week ten, and that
just gives teams more opportunity to see exactly where they
are in the season, whether they're on their way up
(16:00):
or on their way down, and make a decision to
make a move or not. And I think that's just
bought more activity. As you saw today today the amount
of trades, they were about the same as last year
and about the same as the last couple of years.
But it's really it's it's obviously there's that quick, fixed
mentality for a lot of these trades because a lot
of them are one year rentals. But I think right now,
(16:22):
while you're seeing there's a lot of teams that can
accumulate draft picks via other trades or draft day trades
or the compensory pick system, it gives them more ammunition
they like this to make a move. So, but the
big thing today was what the Jets did. Those those
are not typical trade deadline type trades, but just a
lot of activity today.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
Yeah, you mentioned the Jets two former top five picks.
I mean, players that are considered the best at their positions.
D line corner. Why is it that some positions are
traded and others aren't. What is it about defensive line.
It seems like every year you get a couple pass
rushers that are going to move or interior alignment feels
like running backs get traded by receivers get traded. What
(17:01):
is it about that position? And like old lineman almost
never move at the trade deadline? Is there something to
certain positions moving and others not.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Yeah, a big part of the supply and demand, I
mean offensive line wise. If you have a tackle on
your team, even if he's your third tackle or depth tackle,
you don't want to trade them. They're so hard to find.
That's why with the Chargers they had offensive line needs
at the trade deadline. It's so hard to find anybody
that will trade you a tackle who can play. And
they got lucky enough to make a trade for Trevor Penning.
(17:32):
But there just isn't a lot out there, So you
don't see a lot of trades for offerensive linemen. But
at positions where there's a little bit more bigger pool
running back, safeties a lot of times, usually outside corners
never available at the trade deadline. Usually nickel corners are
just because there aren't a lot outside corners. Obviously, the
sauce gardener thing is an anomaly. But you see a
(17:53):
lot of pass rushers at the trade deadline, and usually
they're more towards the end of their career. They come
in for one year rental, give a little bit extra
pass rush down the stretch, but it all comes down
to supply and demand.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
How Tom just speaking to the Chargers, you know, for
a while there they were on tackle number six and seven.
Bobby Hard who hadn't started games since twenty twenty one,
got a few starts out there. You drafted justin Herbert.
How do they overcome not not having you know, Rashaun
Slater and now Joe Alt and trying to you know,
(18:23):
build on what they did last year winning eleven games.
Speaker 5 (18:27):
Well, it's going to be extremely difficult and it's gonna
be a challenge. But you know, there's different ways to
look at it. I mean number one is, you know,
where else can we bring a player in? And they
went out and traded for Trevor Penning, who's you know,
these you know, six six six, three hundred and fifteen pounds,
really tough, physical, strong mentality. Didn't fare as well at
tackle with the Saints. That moved him inside the guard
(18:49):
and we'll see where the Chargers end up playing him.
But what they're going to have to do a lot
of this, it's gonna have to be scheme based. You're
gonna have to leave the tight ends a little in
a little bit more to help block. You're gonna have
to keep keep the running backs into You're gonna have
to move the pocket more. There's just certain things scheme wise,
you're gonna have to do right now to protect Justin
just because look, when you get to your fifth, sixth,
seventh tackle, I mean, obviously there's gonna be a drop
(19:10):
off in talent and you just can't go and go
get another player at this point in the season. So
there's certainly when they can really play and start. So
Greg Roman's gon to have to be creative with the
pass protection, moving the pocket, and probably doing a lot
more max protections to protect the quarterback.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
He's been running around like crazy. Justin Herbert, we look
like a college quarterback against Tennessee taking off. How sustainable
is that? Or I guess that's why they went out
and found some Moralline.
Speaker 5 (19:39):
Well, yeah, you have to pick your spots, and I
think Justin Dio a pretty good job of picking the
spots and when he wants to run and when it's
time to slide, or when it's time just you know,
just eat it, just take a sack and go down.
But obviously the hits in the pocket over time, they're
not sustainable. But it's also part of the position. And
he's a big, strong, physical player and he's built to
(20:01):
take somebody. Says. All quarterbacks get hit, all at different rates.
But part of that position is having a durability to
handle some of that punishment that comes with it. And
the good thing about Justin is he's smart enough to
know when to go down and when to go get
to extra yards. You saw last week against the Titans.
There are some opportunities that he just went out and
got after it because he had to. And it was
(20:22):
great seeing the bench all get excited when they see
him Justin put a shoulder down and try and knock
somebody down. Now, at a GM, you don't like to
see that very often, but I guess people going and
he's outstanding at it.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
What is it about trying to keep old lignement healthy?
You mentioned it, Tom, If you have it, you don't
want to get rid of your third one. A lot
of teams I want to get rid of their fourth
one because guys, these tackles get injured pretty regularly. Is
there a way around that? Is it brace? Wearing braces?
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Is it? Like?
Speaker 4 (20:48):
What is it that you could maybe doup to prevent
as many O line injuries as we see year in
and year out.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
Yeah, I know at the college level they can mandate
players where knee braces. At the level, it's very difficult
to do. And in the end, like a knee brace,
it's not going to protect you from ACL. It could
protect your health a little bit from MCL injury, But
in the end, what you have to look at is
who if your filter of who you're bringing in, who
you're signing is free agents, who you're signing after the
draft is free agents, and who you're drafting, and if
(21:19):
teams want to, you know, draft the player with the
long injury history or chronic issues in college. A lot
of times those same issues come through in the pros.
But look, some of these are just bad luck. Joe
Walt has been very healthy through his college career. Rashaun
Slater is very healthy in his college career. So some
of these you just can't there's nothing you can do about.
But as a whole your philosophy. There may be some
(21:41):
players you really like in the draft. We just feel
like there's some durability questions and it'd be better off
the pass because availability is the most important thing you
can have, certainly on the offensive line, because they're just
few and far between of having enough to go into
a season.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
With the great Tom Telesco, you can hear him on
serious at Sam NFL Radio tonight at five o'clock going
over all this trade stuff and don't forget the big
playoff game with Myriada Valley versus CDM Playoffs this week
first round, the Raiders trade Jacoby Myers to the Jaguars.
They're in a tough spot. They didn't trade Max Crosby,
(22:18):
which could have got them a load of picks. Where
are they.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
Well, they're kind of stuck in between a rebuild and
trying to still get after it this year. I didn't
see any possible way they would trade Max Crosby. And
then you know, after you actually tell Max Crosby you're
not going to trade them, obviously you're not going to
do it. I saw some rumors today because I have
to follow all this. If you're ready for the show,
tonight about Hey, maybe some teams are talking the Raiders
about Max Crosby and it, so there' about one hundred
percent chance that's not going to happen. But I can
(22:46):
see the Jacoby and Buyers one coming and they got
a great I mean to get a fourth and a
sixth round pick back for Jacoby, Buyers and Myers is it.
You know, he's in the last year of his contract,
so it's a you know, nine to ten game rental
for Jacksonville. It's a pretty good return. And you know,
Jacoby just Jacoby is a great person. He's a professional.
(23:06):
But you could sense, like you know, the trade. You know,
he didn't want to be there. He wanted to get moved.
And players just don't play as well or not as
well invested when they don't want to be somewhere. I
think that's probably why the Raiders and the they probably
didn't want to trade him, but in the end, you know,
probably was just best for them, best for the team,
and they got a great return back with the four
and a six Moving forward.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Thank you so much, Tom, that's wonderful stuff. We hope
we didn't wreck you for your show tonight, but have
a great show. And we'll talk to you soon. The
Great Tom Toe, Let's go, and good luck on Friday.

our BJS from three to six thirty, right before Clipper basketball.
It's one of our favorite locales. We have prizes on site.
We got it all, Matt.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
We love Cerrito well and it's a little bonus for
the listeners because typically we're going into Monday night football
and that means it's a flex alert and we're on
two to five and we're trying to negotiate with Miss
January about getting the happy hour moved up an hour.
But in this case, no, BJ's Happy hour starts at three,
goes until nine, and we'll be there from three to
(25:17):
six thirty. We'll get to watch the first half of
the Monday night football game together. Clippers doing us a
solid and you know, they really take care of us,
don't they that that Clipper ship. So it'll be three
to six thirty, not our typical two to five going
into Monday or Thursday night football.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Double rations for you guys here on the Clipper Show,
So come see us.
Speaker 4 (25:36):
It'll be our first appearance of many at BJ's restaurant
and brew house between now week ten and the end
of the NFL season week eighteen.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Yeah, I'm going to Fresno next week. And that's why
I was going to have dinner. Now I don't have to.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
No, Now you get this squared away just fast until Monday,
and then get the Porkopolis flatbread. It'll be great to
hoorner Andy Pahas blowing up Key k Hernez in center
field in Game seven. We will honor a Cuban man
who plays for the Dodgers by honoring a Cuban musician.
(26:10):
Let's celebrate Carlos Potato Valdez, the great Cuban conga player,
would have been ninety nine years old today. Also known
as well, he was Patato because he was short.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
That's the one that stuck. El Toro was his nickname
as a young dancer and boxer. He was also known
as El Zombie or Zombito or Pecano Zombie because how
famous He made the Zombie Club in Havana when he
played there. But as I said, thought it was because
(26:45):
he was the undead.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
No.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
He died at eighty one twelve thirteen years ago, but
the Zombie Club was a big thing. I guess from
a music family. He mastered percussion at a young age,
played with many greats in the forties, and by the
(27:08):
fifties he was touring the world, especially New York City,
and he was attracted by America's jazz scene in New York.
So he left Cuba in nineteen fifty four, basically was
exiled because of what happened there, and recorded with Everybody,
I mean everybody, Tito Puente, Art, Blakey, Max Roach. He
(27:29):
toured Africa and Europe. He toured Europe with Dizzy Gillespie
and Quincy Joel. He even acted and appeared and played
on the Bill Cosby show WHOA which was a great
show for jazz. Did he ever play with Dave cos
You know, it's not beyond the realm of possibility. He
(27:51):
lived till super cool, He lived till like fifteen years ago.
And Cause, you know, at his time in the eighties
and nineties he might have crossed as with Cause. He
might have had cause to play with Cause and the
late I don't even know if you played with Sandborn. Oh,
come on. In the late forties, he helped develop the
first tunable congas, leading to the development of the LP
(28:15):
Potato model congas, the top selling conga drum of all time,
an Afro Cuban jazz legend, to say the least, and
cut across paths with Dave cause because he had a
sixty year career in the music scene. He died a
respiratory failure at eighty one in Cleveland, Potato Valdez. A
(28:39):
lot of things that he did that were really cool.
One of them that he did not do was knockover
Key k Hernandez while making a pivotal catch in center.
Speaker 4 (28:47):
Left and then hesitate before he helped him out in
game seven. Well, he had to look, see what's going on?
Is that out number three? Oh?
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Let me help out this young Puerto Rican. Was that
a donkey? I just ran into a bu What the
hell you're alive?
Speaker 4 (29:03):
Guy?
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Could have been a little al Penguino, which is also
what Patanto's nickname was for his dancing style. Oh yeah,
I mean, it could have been anybody, but it was
Kik the uh A live guy.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
Birthday A tip of the cap to our dear friend
Eric Carros, who is fifty eight today. Happy birthday, k
It is also your mate A real Barry Krakker's birthday
today celebrated in this space last year, and we learned
the term a real Barry Kraka.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
It's unfortunately we're not going back to that.
Speaker 4 (29:32):
We are because I figured I would do something to
support our hesher audience today, Kates, please thank you give
me that Metropolis Part two from Breaking the Fourth Wall
by Dream Theater. Every metal band's favorite metal band, and
(29:53):
today we celebrate Jordan Rutis their cheese player. Do you
play keys for a metal band and you got something
special going on on them? Fingers at yours man. He
has sixty nine today. Born in Great Neck, New York.
At child prodigy on piano, began his professional instruction when
(30:14):
he was seven. At nine, he was granted admission at
nine to the Juilliard School of Music, where he trained
and worked under their best teachers and performers. He was
expected to become the next great American classical pianist, but
he got his hands on some deep purple vinyl.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
He was like John Lord, blowing my mind.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
He took the prop path, much to his parents his
tutor's protests.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Wow, he reterned. He like the guy in School of Rock.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
Yes, his first band complex actually was with one of
his Juilliard Instructors, who was like, I like what you're doing,
kid with you. He and Joseph Lyons The New York
Times loved them. They put out a record, They got
a residency at the Lexington Conservatory Theater. Floyd asked, and
(31:11):
by Floyd, I mean Pink Floyd, not Pink Floyd. Pink
Floyd asked if he wanted to be part of the
sessions for scoring Bring the Boys Back Home on the Walls.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
They were amazing.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
His work was not accepted by producer Bob Ezrind. He
did a bunch of session for hier gigs throughout the eighties,
put out some solo records. In ninety four, he was
voted best Talent by Keyboard magazine and their readers poll
following the release of his solo album Listen. So there
was a fight for the Rudis Keys. The Dixie Dregs
(31:42):
and Dream Theater both asked him to join, but He's like, nah, man,
I'm into my solo career. The Dregs were like, we'll
just let you go part time, so we did. He
and his drummer Rod Morgenstein hit it off. They started
the Rudis Morgenstein Project, known as RMP by the prog
rockers Ooh. Not offended by his declining their invitation, Dream
(32:03):
Theater offered the duo their support slot on the North
American tour. In ninety seven, Mike Portnoy, a man behind
Dream Theater, was asked to form a supergroup and he
wanted Rudis to join Liquid Tension Experiment. Oh come on,
what a band did two albums there, and this time
Portnoy wasn't taken no for an answer. They wanted him
in Dream Theater and he agreed, and since ninety nine,
(32:24):
in this album p Metropolis Part two Scenes from a Memory,
he has been part of Dream Theater. Rudis stumbling upon
a piano in Lax during the Christmas season and deciding
to tickle the keys. Not just a metal guy, huh,
(32:44):
A little prog rock version of White Christmas.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
It's like Nordstrom.
Speaker 4 (32:49):
Here are some of the album titles B six Degrees
of Innerturbulence, Systematic Chaos, The Astonishing from the Top of
the World, and this year twenty twenty five's Parasomnia. That's
what we're talking about with our man. Rudish started on
(33:12):
a Kurtzwheel, then he got to a Cord. He has
a role in key tar that he'll break out at
their live performances from time to time.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
An LP potato conga, the greatest selling conga of all time.
It's too talk about meeting.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
He is a very successful businessman in the world of music,
software and app use I guess he's got a lot
of stuff that make noises for your keyboards to upload
software patches and stuff like that. And he has arguably
the greatest neck go tee. Oh not a neck beard,
but a neck go tee, got it, that I've ever seen.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Jordan rudis fabulous. All right, that's it for us. Thank
you to Ronnie at Ronnie Fossil. He'll post the playlist,
will it? Will it include rutus And a big thank
you to Tim Kaing that that's your gene keeps him working.
