fact pee continuation of a theme that stretched through a
couple of days last week. Napoleon Bonaparte, yes, known for
his affinity for cologne. Oh yeah, well his favorite you know,
another French guy. You call it a French shower. His
favorite was a blend of citrus oils, which included lemon, orange, bear,

(02:58):
came and narroli, as well as herbs. They said he
applied copious various herbs amounts of cologne both on his body,
and he would douse his clothing as well. Fred shows
up literally for four days at work and we rest
of the year and no one even saw him rest

(03:19):
of the year.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
All we did was smell him.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
His nickname the perfumed Barbarian or the perfumed despot. But
I like barbarian better.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
Yeah, barbarian works better for our audience. We don't get
a lot, We don't point a lot of fingers and
screamed despot.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
In people like we used to always could you know,
there's always an opportunity.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
Careers, we call people despoints, but not anymore. All right,
it is time for quickeads, quickheads, I make it quick, y'all. Yeah, Matt.
The Dodgers are off to twenty seven and fourteen. They're
doing great. Heard John Hayman talk about it. They started

(04:06):
not I don't know what we're gonna do all summer.
They started nine game I mean, Lebron's gonna do something
stupid soon, right, he will.

Speaker 2 (04:13):
You, he will like the full moon's beautiful se coming.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
They started nine game homestand tomorrow with the A's from
Sacramento in town.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Who aren't that bat but not wearing your ace alternative
hat these days?

Speaker 4 (04:26):
Huh?

Speaker 2 (04:27):
Putting that thing back on the shelf with them coming
to the farm team. Yeah, I'm gonna wear a farm
team of who I guess the age exactly suggest you're
like really into them, Hey, not only my big A's fan, man,
I'm so into them. I got their farms known.

Speaker 3 (04:41):
I'm gonna wear my Mark McGuire shirt tomorrow and double down,
You're gonna be sweet. I'll wear my Sacramento State hornet
socks stiggers up. Freddie Freeman n L Player of the
Week fourteen for twenty eight with three dublets, one trip,
three home runs, twelve Harbisong. I'm well hit to right,

(05:02):
it's deep, going.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
Back to the track, to the wall.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
God, it's in the pool, splash down as Freddie Freeman.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
HiT's a mother of a home run on Mother's Day?

Speaker 3 (05:21):
Where do your mother? The Dodgers Matt made a trade.
They did.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
They acquired outfielder Stewart Borrowa from the Toronto Blue Jays
for cash considerations. He made his MLB debut at Toronto
last year twenty eight games, slashed one eighty nine, three
thirty three two, sixteen, five point fifty not good. Had
an eight twenty five ops with ten homers and thirty
four stolen bases. However, at Triple A Buffalo last cease.

Speaker 3 (05:47):
Air rat Jamie and i Irah Steward's of the Dodgers eras.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
You see, what you guys do is you take our
quotes and then you you wait for us to go
back against what we said. Didn't you use it against us?

Speaker 3 (06:02):
That's what you do. That's what I'm man. It's kind
of the function of the media there, Jamien Colorado Rockies
terrible act of racism fired Bud Black Yes even Tuesday
seven and thirty three on the season.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
He's a Bud and he's black.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
Yeah. Well, Kate's usually, you know, is kind of subdued
when it comes to these things. You know, they call
him Red State Kates for a reason. But even Kate
stepped up and said, this is going to hit this,
this is racist.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
We got to use our platform.

Speaker 3 (06:28):
I mean, they're seven and thirty three on the season.
Dodger manager Dave Roberts was a coach on his staff
San Diego before the Rockies job, and had this to
say when he found out about Bud Black being fired.
I'm bummed, Matt Buddy Smith cut me off on the left,
and I am absolutely living. I'm disappointed. I don't think

(06:49):
Casey stangle could change the outcome of that ball club.
That's not the manager's fault. But obviously they felt they
needed to change in voice and direction. But for me,
there's not many people that are better than Buddy Black.
So yeah, that's very disappointing. It is clearly not his doing.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
Bring him out, man, bring him out to do your staff,
you know, why not put them out there, Hey, Bud, lets.

Speaker 3 (07:12):
Parties make you look good too, you know, minority higher right,
the Angels are six. Kate stepped up, you know, he
doesn't usually do that. Usually racist things happening, Kate's keeps quiet.
The Angels are sixteen to twenty three. They're at last place.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
In the ALSA, but they're smart.

Speaker 3 (07:37):
They had to San Diego for the start of a
three game series versus the Padres and Matt. It's true
whenever they lose, they get an education. Ye're experience what
it takes to win.

Speaker 4 (07:47):
That's right, when we lose them all game, we got education,
and how education is what it may have taken to
win that game.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
And I happen to know Matt going down and facing
the Padres also with a religious name, you know, oh yeah,
the priests. They might have an angel with him. We
got an angel with you right now, right now, just
got here, yep, and he's going to help shut up
on the five little late a lot of traffic and
last pool Gus.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
Sure, but he's gonna help you really battle next there.

Speaker 3 (08:15):
He's gonna help you with tatis. Here's an angel with
you right now. Well, we got an angel with you
right now.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
Where is it?

Speaker 4 (08:22):
Just got here?

Speaker 3 (08:23):
Oh and he's going to help.

Speaker 4 (08:26):
You know, Matt.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
It's a team that was in first place at eight
and four. Yeah, on April tenth, eight and four. Since then,
they've gone six and nineteen. Well, it's a lot of
a lot of education, lots of learn now, Matt, you know,
I like to be a contrarian, but it seems like
the Houston fans are pretty they're pretty rough. Yeah, Lance

(08:49):
McCullers is a bad deal. The Houston Police Department was
brought in. Investigation opened. Nobody arrested or brought into custody,
but the Houston Crime Uncle had this story as mccullor's
had a rough outing. He's been dealing with an injury.
It was his first time on the mound. It was
a disaster of a first inning, and said that a
bunch of people on the social media were threatening his family,

(09:12):
his kids. Seven earned runs and just one third of
an inning, pulled from the game after thirty six pitches,
and he said one in particular message was particularly upsetting.
Someone said that they were going to murder his children.
That's how they chose to deal with seven runs and
a third of an inning.

Speaker 3 (09:31):
Sam Houston would never oblige that kind of behavior. He
was a gentleman.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
No, I believe he would respond to that type of
behavior with a saber. Yeah, slice somebody right open. We
would he would challenge that guy who would do as
he would, come on, hey, hey people, let's be better.

Speaker 3 (09:48):
Yeah, let's do better.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
Let's do better.

Speaker 3 (09:50):
Okay, threatening to murder the guy's children and social media.
It's not cool.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
Yeah, bett un an Astros Reds game is asinine, all right,
you idiot, idiot. The Draft lottery was Dodger's a game.
Everybody knows that that's what you bet on.

Speaker 3 (10:03):
Wait till I put my uh my a shirt on tomorrow. Man,
I'm going full. I'm leading in tomorrow. But a dress
like the Draft lottery was earlier, and I thought we
did an unbelievable job actually covering it. Lives good call, good, audible.
We had the racial logistics.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
Yes, and we got what we came for, and that
is the NBA is fixed.

Speaker 3 (10:26):
Whatsoever? None nine laughing emojis from the King.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
One point eight percent chance to win the lottery after
trading Luka Doncic so they missed the playoffs, they get
into the lottery and they land the number one pick,
which will be one of the most sought after number
one picks in the last decade. Uh Cooper flag will
be headed to Dallas.

Speaker 3 (10:44):
The NBA fed a death cap mushroom to their fans.
Michael Jordan's coming back the pubs from Chicago and Michael.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Jordan's going to be back on TV special contributor doing great.
Oh you can't beat it.

Speaker 4 (10:57):
What a time.

Speaker 3 (10:58):
Hot social media chick one that always complains about the
Dodgers Jack I think her name's.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
Monica, said right, she's got a very wide spread on
the eyes. Yeah, you know, but does she It's okay
for people to look you neque, That's okay. I'm just
saying she does.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
Hey, take a whiff of the TV.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
Oh track car permeating from the screen. Michael Jordan's going
to be a special contributor to the NBC NBA coverage
this fall.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
It's time for NBA information with the perfumed barbarian. I
love this ship.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
NBC has their upfronts today and the network has this
huge announcement quote a legendary addition to our team. We're
thrilled to welcome Michael Jordan is a special contributor to
the NBA on NBC in Peacock. It was a post
on Twitter along with the video from Jordan's playing days.
Remember NBC ended up snatching up one half of the

(11:51):
rights and Amazon the rest as TNT got squeezed out.
So Jordan, I guess, is going to be taking the
place like Charles Barkley or something. But he probably won't
work nearly his heart or be as good, No, not remotely.

Speaker 3 (12:03):
ESPN encountered by hiring Rich Eisen and like, look at us,
look at this douche.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
Guess what we got back.

Speaker 3 (12:11):
We got a doucheback. We're going to have a clean undercarrot.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
This guy has been interviewing people surrounding Seinfeld for the
last five years, and we really like the cut of
his gim.

Speaker 3 (12:23):
He's coming back to aspend to douche out with.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
The legendary Stuart Scott, RP. Rich and Stu made one
of the most impactful sports highlight announcing teams in television history.
He will now be returning to talk about Seinfeld. The
schedule will release Wednesday at five pm Pacific. The Chargers,
we now it's not official, but it's official. They are

(12:47):
going to play the Chiefs. Oh you knew it, Matt,
I did you knew?

Speaker 3 (12:50):
You know so much?

Speaker 2 (12:51):
I was able to sit so very little. You're broke
the story last week.

Speaker 3 (12:55):
You know, you're like a guy holding in a fart.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
You know it's right, just a little bit and you
sneak out of the door. Front Office Sports had it
over the weekend. I was like, no, no, no, this
is not the original, not added first. Well, you know,
we don't like to break news here.

Speaker 4 (13:09):
We just like.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
The game is gonna be streamed on YouTube for free.
That means audience and viewership numbers for the game will
likely be the largest in the history of a streaming
event because you don't need to have the Peacock or
to Paramount or the Prime. Instead, you just log onto
YouTube dot com and bang live free NFL football.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
You know who's going to be on the sideline for
that broadcast.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
Designing to be there?

Speaker 3 (13:38):
Man is gonna be there. You can't keep her away.

Speaker 2 (13:40):
Now I heard it's mister Beast.

Speaker 3 (13:42):
Well be there, all right, We will be back with more.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
Trust, some money. AM five seventy l A Sports Live
Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app your home of the World
Series Champion Dog Yours. Ten games in ten days concluded yesterday,
a day off today before beginning a home series against
the Sacramento A's. And that brings us to this baseball conversation.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
You know every year that somebody has like a you know,
a motto, you know, like the Clippers, Like I remember
what is it street lights?

Speaker 2 (14:19):
Street light not spoty?

Speaker 3 (14:21):
Yeah, this year Sacramento A's I mean it just it
rights itself right sack up joining us right now from
his big long Doobie smoking days and the Esplanade and
Redondo Beach and the Daily Breeze to now becoming the
most powerful. He traded in his doobie for a powerful pen.

(14:44):
One of the great baseball writers and most influential ever.
And he keeps it going on MLB Network. Stylish, stylish
and very insightful. Man humorous, and he deals with us
in a great way. He always joining us on your

(15:07):
Southern California Toyota Dealer. It is the great do be
smoking John Hey on the Petrosen Money Show on the hotline.
What's cracking?

Speaker 4 (15:16):
Don?

Speaker 3 (15:16):
How John? How are you?

Speaker 4 (15:19):
Thank you for that introduction. I love to hear the
Doobie brothers in the background. Very nice.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
Yeah, it makes me love playing it.

Speaker 4 (15:24):
Man.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
Makes you think of rat Beach with your feet in
the sand.

Speaker 4 (15:27):
Absolutely.

Speaker 3 (15:28):
Now, Look, you are the voice of the East Coast
for us. You know, I know there's a lot of
voices out there, but yours is the one that resonates
all the way across this great country of ours. John,
So what's going on with Aaron Judge? What are you
guys watching out there? Before we get into how great
the Dodgers are?

Speaker 4 (15:46):
Good player, pretty good, heavy, amazing. I mean, this is
the guy who's struck out in half is at bats
his first season in the big league, eighty four at
bet forty two strikeouts. Now he's about four hundred. You know,
we can't say it's a likelihood, but it's amazing for
a guy who well, you know, two sixty seven, three

(16:07):
years ago, three twenty two last year. Now he's I
believe four h nine. Incredible. We know he's the best
slugger in the game, but he truly is the best hitter,
as one Soto said about a month ago. Now, I
think that's fair to say.

Speaker 2 (16:23):
We it feels like we live in a Otani is
the greatest thing we're ever going to see. So make
sure you appreciate it so you can tell your grandkids
and their grandkids about it. But what do you see
in terms of a gap if there is one? Because
I feel like we hear it a little bit about
Aaron Judge, but it still feels like there's a gap
between Otani and everybody else. Is that fair?

Speaker 4 (16:44):
Well, once Otani gets on the mound and pitches anything
close to the way he pitched when he was over
in Anaheim or La Evana, whatever they call in that
place now Arts County County, Yeah, yeah, I mean, if
he's on the mound and he's a fifty to fifty man, yeah,
we got to give it to Otani. He's number one.

(17:05):
I don't think there's any question about it. An all
time great, but we're just talking about a guy who's
d h versus a guy who's a right fielder. You know,
I think Judge is probably the best hitter, not probably,
he is the best hitter. And you know, obviously Tani's
stealing bases too, so he gets a little bit of
edge for that. But Judge is a right good right fielder.

(17:26):
He's not quite Mookie Bets, but he's, you know, in
the top five in right field. So at this moment,
until O'tani, he's a pitcher too, I think Judge is
the best player in the game. I did my own
player rankings a couple of weeks ago he did Otani
number two. But John, I'd say, if Otani's on the mound,
nobody's better.

Speaker 2 (17:47):
Let's go back like what sixteen seventeen months, John, and
just kind of what we what we've seen so far
from Yamamoto through his starts early in the season, just
kind of your assumption what you had been hearing about
what kind of player he might be in, you know,
major League Baseball compared to what he was doing over
in Japan, and kind of what you're now seeing one

(18:07):
season and you know, eight or nine starts in so far.

Speaker 4 (18:12):
Well, I mean, we know both New York teams were
willing to go three hundred million. Also Mets were at
three twenty five, same as the Dodgers. He is worth it.
He is one of the best pitchers in the game.
So that was a great signing. Anybody in their mid
twenties who's a superstar, you know, the smart teams go heavy,
and that was an excellent signing and needed signing. He

(18:33):
helped them win the World Series last year. They only
had three starters at that point, right with Bueller and
flat Flaherty. They had four bullpen games in October. Still
were able to win the World Series. And I don't
think enough people say exactly how good Yamamoto was in
October and he's carried through and he's certainly one of
the best pitchers in baseball right now. Probably ranked Derek

(18:56):
Schooble number one at the moment, but Yamamoto certainly in
the top five.

Speaker 3 (19:00):
Schoolbl the great John Haymon joining us right now. MLB Network,
New York Post, MLB Insider at j O N H
E Y M A n on X. We always love
talking to him, not trying to make you work too hard, John.
But we're about a quarterway through the season here. We
just passed there. I don't know if you feel like
it goes fast or slow based on your breadth of knowledge.

(19:25):
But what has really blown that stylish hair of yours
back as a big surprise to start? If there had
to be one thing that really has surprised you to
start this year, what is it?

Speaker 4 (19:35):
Oh? You know, I guess the fact that the we
call them Sacramento Ways, right, the Oakland Sacramentos in town.
They're not bad. They're doing okay. I mean they didn't
do so great against the Yankees on that expect them
to beat the Dodgers, but they don't stink. You know.
I got to give them credit. They're doing all right.

(19:56):
There are a few teams that are a little bit
of a surprise, but I think it's generally going to form.
I guess on the other end of things, we've got
to be a little surprised that the Rockies are looking
like the worst team of all time. We knew they
were bad, but nobody knew that they stunk this bad.
They got to were they seven and thirty three something
like that? What could they do?

Speaker 3 (20:17):
I mean now that the season's a quarter of the
way in, but Black has been fired.

Speaker 4 (20:22):
Yeah, they're too deep at this part. Is nothing they
can do, Like, what do you do?

Speaker 3 (20:25):
You just wear it for the rest of the year
in the chest. You bring up Willie Mays Hayes, what
do you do?

Speaker 4 (20:31):
Well, you know, they fired their manager. I don't think
that's going to probably do anything. They're just horrific. I
think it's a little unfair to the sixty two Metsy
They had the worst record, the most losses. That record
held for sixty two years. The White Sox broke that
record last year, lost one more game at one twenty one,

(20:52):
and I think they're going to lose that record in
one year. The only hell, they're going to hold it
for one year. I think the Rockies are that bad.
It's stunning to see a team that's bad. They're only
that bad. They're also in the best division. That doesn't
help them. It's good they don't have that really unbalanced
schedule like they used to where they play eighteen nineteen
games against teams in.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
Their divisions a year.

Speaker 4 (21:15):
Yeah, they're they're I don't think they're gonna win forty
one games, so you know, they they were looking at
all time bad and good for the White Sox. They
only held that record for one year, I think. I mean,
we'll see, maybe the Rockies will get hot and you know,
win three out of their next ten games, and I'll
be proven wrong. But I don't think so. They're really terrible.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
I know he was on the Giants for a couple
of years there, John, but certainly in New York you
got to see a lot of Michael Confordo. So much
attention here it seems like early season on the struggles
of Max Munsey, but that is being usurped by the
struggles of Michael Confordo. At thirty Two. How concerned is
he a notoriously slow starter? Just your your thoughts about
one of the big free agent signings this offseason for

(21:58):
the Dodgers and the fact the guy's hitting around one
point fifty right now.

Speaker 4 (22:02):
Yeah. I mean, he put up decent stats in San Francisco,
which is an easy last year, so I can see
why they signed him and sign him to a one
year deal. It made sense. He was a really good
player when it was the Mets had that shoulder injury
that kind of interrupted and kind of ruined his free agency.
And you know, I think he's a solid hitter. You know,

(22:25):
it's never a big risk, particularly if you're the Dodgers,
to sign someone to a one year deal. I think
he'll I think he'll come around. I don't think he's
going to hit like this all year. I wouldn't be
too worry if I'm the Dodgers. They are the best,
Their team is incredible, and not everybody's going to be
hitting three hundred. Not everyone's going to have ten home

(22:46):
runs at this point, and I think Confordo and Munsey
will be okay. They may have quite the years they
were hoping to have, but I certainly wouldn't give up
on them just just because they're off the slow starts.
I mean, thirty two, that'sund a young man. That's half
my exactly half my age. That's a young man.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
What are we supposed to do then, John, all summer
if the Dodgers are the best and there's nothing, I mean,
how how are we supposed to functionat?

Speaker 4 (23:12):
Going there? Light up doobie and go yeah, all right
to me? I got the music. That's great? Yeah? Nice?

Speaker 3 (23:23):
Right over there, there's some people smoking weed.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
John, let's go. Let's go local, but not local in
the majors. But El Toro high. Paul Skeene's doing it
for the pirates. Uh you mentioned schoobl But it seems
as though the legend of schemes is already being chiseled
into stone. How good is this, dude? What is this
work ethic?

Speaker 1 (23:46):
Like?

Speaker 2 (23:46):
Is this the individual that could potentially change the fortunes
of the Pittsburgh Pirates around even though he only plays
every five days?

Speaker 4 (23:54):
Yeah? No, I think I agree with all of that
about except changing the fortunes of the pirates. You know,
a long way to go. You're right, one one every
five day is and gonna change their fortunes, they're not good. Uh,
I just look at their line up. He's actually here
in New York pitching tonight. I believe he's terrific. I

(24:14):
saw I met him in spring training, interviewed him. A
smart young man, very very poised guy, and certainly dedicated
to his craft. And uh, I think he'll probably I
think he's got a good shot at winning this young
this year, in his second year, after the Rookie of
the Year last year. He is terrific. But you know,

(24:35):
one pitcher, uh not going to change the fortunes of
the Pirates. They got, they got, They got a wayte
to go. They need about another two pitchers and about
seven hitters.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
Too together, so they're getting there right there.

Speaker 4 (24:48):
The better the better.

Speaker 3 (24:51):
There we go, all right, And you know what, in
not sense, John Hayman as a uh has a guy
whipped out a belt and hit somebody and pitts like
that at the park. But it happened just the other day.
Made me think that John Hayman using his belt to
fend off Bob Nightingale. John, you know, Hinch is managing

(25:13):
a first place team in Detroit because of the Dodgers
dramatic victory over the Yankees. Out here in LA everybody
feels so great and no one really thinks about the
Astros as much anymore. He seems like he's doing a
great job, and he seems like he's one of the
only guys that really took accountability in that terrible Astro situation.
What do you make of what's going on in Detroit?

Speaker 4 (25:34):
Detroit? They're good, They're good. We actually had Scot Scott.
We're having Scott Harris on our podcast, can'st Tomorrow for
your post. He's a GM of the against the Baseball
President now they call him with the Tigers. They've done
a great job. They're pitching is fantastic. Hinch does a
great job handling the pitching. I think they're for real.

(25:56):
I think they're the best team in the American League.
That said, the American League not the better league right now.
The National League is by far the best better league.
And I would say Detroit's the best in the American League.
But if I'm going to name the top five teams,
they might all be National League teams. It's an odd
imbalance this year.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
The great John Hayman, always kind with his time, a
man providing us the National perspective. Follow him on Twitter
at John j.

Speaker 4 (26:25):

Birthday of the Day today, British News.

Speaker 4 (28:46):
It's time for PMS. British News, United Kingdom, English News
It's time for British News.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
Cheerio straight, I'll get out happy would have been two

Speaker 3 (29:12):
Oh, Bob Nightingale's great grandmother, that's great great grandmother. As your.

Speaker 2 (29:17):
Serve the people, show of record, Petro some money.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
She was a great commentator.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
British nurse who is best known and famous for improving
the care of wounded soldiers Constantinople and for helping change
the way hospitals operated. Regularly cited as the founder of
modern nursing.

Speaker 3 (29:37):
She's the original nurse to roll her eyes what the
doctor told you.

Speaker 2 (29:41):
Don't listen to him.

Speaker 3 (29:42):
He's an idiot.

Speaker 2 (29:43):
He's addicted to morphia. Her work during the Crimean War,
in her efforts to reform healthcare saved at the time
thousands of lives.

Speaker 3 (29:53):
Light brigade all day.

Speaker 2 (29:54):
Then, considering it inspired series change in the hospitals operated,
encourage many people to become nurses, creating respect for a
profession that prior was not so well regarded millions of lives.
Born in Florence, Italy, which is how she got her
named Florence, her family had serious cats. They moved back
to England where she grew up, not popular for the time,
her being a girl and all to get a serious education, homeschooled,

(30:18):
very smart and with that big brain.

Speaker 3 (30:22):
Go to Oxford or David.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
Father had hoped that she would just kind of work
alongside him, they were very close, but she said that
she received a calling from God and that was to
help others. And again first the education. Then also unusual
in the mid eighteen hundreds for women to work, especially
in medicine, but Florence felt strongly that nursing was her purpose.
Family not happy at that decision, so saying it's not

(30:48):
a respectable job and we have the Nightingale name here,
what are you doing flow? She ended up going to
Germany trained to be a nurse, came back to the UK,
began working around hospitals in England and then eighteen fifth
the four Crimean.

Speaker 3 (31:00):
War Florence a hotly facing time.

Speaker 2 (31:03):
She voluntarily goes to a British military hospital in Turkey
with a team of nurses. Hospital in show overcrowded, dirty,
no supplies, soldiers dying, notchs from their wounds, but infections
to see. Well, that's what it is, Matt.

Speaker 3 (31:17):
You know, sanitary condition.

Speaker 2 (31:18):
That's right. And Florence says, hey, fix it, clean up,
clean it up, would you? And that's what she did,
preaching the benefit of doctors keeping themselves improved in terms
of hygiene.

Speaker 3 (31:29):
You morphine, attic, wash your hands, poop finger.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
Her nickname the Lady with the Lamp was earned because
she would walk the halls at night, checking on patients,
making sure the hospital was in order. The results were evident. Immediately,
death rate in her hospital drop sharply. Upon returning to England,
she was a national hero. And guess what. Mom and
Dad were into it. And they were like, you know what, Florence,
They're so sorry he's done it.

Speaker 4 (31:54):
Last.

Speaker 2 (31:54):
Proud of you, young Flora, proud of me. Last you've
brought pride to our last name.

Speaker 3 (32:01):
Not since your brother Bob, the great writer.

Speaker 2 (32:05):
And she said, thanks DoD, but I got to be going.
She didn't even stick around, was not interested in the fame.
She traveled. She worked on the scrub sacks, clean, that's
what she did. She scrubbed, the satch scrubbed. The floors
had to be scrubbed, she would scrub it. She opened
the Nightingale Training School for Nurses in London, launched nursing
into a respected and professional career. Her early students would

(32:25):
go on to preach her philosophy at other hospitals, open
their own. Florence Nightingale would write and advise on healthcare,
her entire life a chaste lifestyle. Why because she believed
it was a calling from God and she had to
have the blinders on, commit to it fully, no distractions.

Speaker 3 (32:44):
An exceptional person, Florence Nightingale. I mean she didn't write
about no baseball.

Speaker 2 (32:49):
So embarrassed by you, Florence entering the profession of nursing
at the last game night?

Speaker 3 (32:54):
Did I see you with the bedpan?

Speaker 4 (32:56):
Did I?

Speaker 3 (32:57):
It is not becoming.

Speaker 4 (33:01):
You.

Speaker 3 (33:01):
Why would you have people?

Speaker 4 (33:03):
Why?

Speaker 2 (33:05):
All right, bet you're dead me calling father?

Speaker 3 (33:08):
You're dead? Guy is a great nurse, You're a live guy,
a great Cypriot.

Speaker 4 (33:12):
Greek news.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
News that is Greek.

Speaker 3 (33:18):
Invented democracy and we're the first people who you know.

Speaker 2 (33:24):
Speak Now here's petrous Papa donkeys, Yes, beating out Mobamba
love mo Bamba.

He left Rya, he left you. Well, it translates to
Terry Terryson.

Speaker 2 (33:53):
But really like this name Terry Yeah.

Speaker 3 (33:55):
He left dad Yah. It's like John Johnson, you know,
kind of. She's thirty six today, a well rounded child
like the Smith and Kate's girls. Grew up in Franos, Cyprus,
loved music and found herself on the CBC's Folk Orchestra.

(34:16):
The CBC exactly Matt, the Cypress Broadcasting Corporate one, unbelievable
big one. I believe it's a hollowed out olive tree.

Speaker 4 (34:28):

Speaker 3 (34:30):
She tried out for Eurovision, didn't make it, went to
the University of Surrey, Go Team Surrey and she was
in the play rent in Cyprus.

Speaker 2 (34:41):
Five hundred twenty five thousand, six hundred.

Speaker 3 (34:43):
Mem gonna say that in Greece, I can't do that.
She became a star on X Factor Grease. Eventually she
didn't win, but the host of Greek X Factor, of course,
Sake's Gruvas, offered her a job to sing at the club.
Do you want you? Are you the club to me?

(35:07):
She's saying, only the finest, but Sony Music Grease signed
her and she got more Eurovision burn at Linebacker in
twenty ten. Now she's performed at all the best discotheques
in Athens and Thessalonikiyah okay, she even had some English
language singles. Eleftidia is a star Matt on Survivor Grease. Oh,

(35:35):
I love Survivor Grease and such a success that she's
also on Survivor Grease All Stars. Since you feigned knowledge
of the show, I should tell you that Survivor Grease
is different than the one here in the States. Yeah.
It's really just Greeks in a room with only one
pack of cigarettes on the table and they fight it out.

Speaker 2 (35:51):
That's why I love it.

Speaker 3 (35:53):
Actually, it's like the Bachelorette with a goat instead of
a woman. They see who survive we have to go?
Yeah anyway and all seriously, Terry Terryson has even dipped
into acting.

Speaker 4 (36:11):
