And right now brought to you by Concordia University Irvines
Masters in Coaching and Athletics Administration Program, it's time for
the Final Hour Fun Fact.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
In effect, it's the Yeah We're three Facts.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
The Final Hour Fun Fact is brought to you by
Concordia University Irvines Masters in Coaching and Athletics Administration Program.
Like I said, it's a fact that a coach has
more influence on others in one year than the average
person does in one lifetime. So if you're not a
coach where that most of that most of that opportunity
can be made at CUI dot edu slash coaching, that
(02:49):

Speaker 2 (02:52):
Let's go Canada. P Uh, it is not Ontario, but
it is Canada. Did you know those uh clean as
all get out holsers up there? Less than fifteen rats
per year enter Alberta, Canada. They have a provincial rat
control Specialist program detection execution system where rats are quickly
(03:19):
and summarily killed by these specialists before they can breed.
Making the province of Alberta, with metropolis Edmonton over a million,
metropolis Calgary almost one and a half million, we'll kind about.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Some of the most bustling cities in the world.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
The largest rat free populated area in the entire world.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
I'll tell you, you get one rat in your wheat silo,
nobody wants to buy your wheat. That's why?
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Is that what it is?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
I don't like this rat infested wheat.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
I have no idea.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
I mean, because you can't think it's like a French thing,
because you know there's rats in Paris that are the
size of everywhere a monitor lizard.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
But anyway, it's the hantavirus in my wheat. Can't it
can't have it on my weed silo. Let's get Jared
stole on what you says?
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Scatch you on?
Speaker 4 (04:09):
Anyway, it's time rats for days and the sketch. Oh,
the size of woolie mammoth, that's right, top story.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Of top story of it.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Dang uh Well, it was a microcosm and it was
a macrocossum of the Dodger season all in one game,
and it was not good for the Panic Brothers. Inside
of nine innings nine of the fourteen hundred and fifty
eight played over the one hundred and sixty two regular
(04:44):
season games, nine innings inside the eighty one played in
the playoffs. It was a quick, quick reminder that whenever
Eric Carros would join us, whenever David Vassay would mock
the Brothers of Panic, the bops they were closer to it.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Have mocked us.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
And yes it hasn't stopped us over the years from
actively stupid.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
We do what we do, they do what they do,
and I guess they know what it looks like inside
and out. And essentially they were telling us, hey, stop
bringing the fanness to work. Okay, guys, sho he Otani
has been called, and had been called, the greatest player
to have ever put on a Major League Baseball uniform, unicorn,
(05:34):
a one of one, and enjoy it now, kids, because
as we're told, and now we will echo those sentiments,
we will probably never see it again, unless, of course,
Otani is birthing an era of two way players that
will not take no for an answer when they are
choosing which college they will attend and play, whether or
(05:57):
not they're going to sign a contract after being drafted
by MLB team like Hunter Green did, but the Cincinnati
Reads and they said, you're pitching. Maybe he would have
dug in were it ten years later post Otani and said, no,
I'm not pitching. I'm doing both. But even then, you
hear it. You hear it from or when we're talking
(06:18):
with Major League Baseball players, and to a man, they
all say, what man Otani is doing is beyond explaining.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Oh, you said it was gonna be great, Matt.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
But there was still a lot of residual dandruff from
calling it out as at bats from earlier in the week.
So you know, there's a lot of people that didn't
hear your prediction on Friday where you said Otan is
gonna have the greatest game in the history of baseball,
and he did, and you were right, and you were right.
But there were still people. You know, we're on the
radio the whole week, and not everybody heard that one part.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
So people during it. I got a lot of.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Hey, you dumb, met Smith, you got both, he got
a kill.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
What thought his name out of his mom.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
It does not line up. It is beyond common sense
that someone can step on them on fire off six
plus innings, not just as an innings eater. He's an
innings eater, That's what you gotta think of.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
It's somebody that could give the Dodgers bullpens a relief.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
He is not just a fifth starter, but six innings
of two hit, ten strikeout baseball against the team that
had the best record in the MLB this past season,
a team with a lineup that was described as average.
Shows that will wear you down, that will grind out
at bats, that will create traffic on the bases, all
stars like Christian Yelich and Jackson Churio, and that your
(07:36):
fourth starter would do that as already an outlier, but
then to have that same player go three for three
with three home runs, one of them one of the
longest of the stat cast era, nearly four hundred and
seventy feet out of the stadium altogether. Either of those
players is in line for the NLCSMVP after a sweep
by the Dodgers. Instead, he removed all doubt, taking the
(07:57):
trophy from a hitter like Tommy Edmund taking the trophy
for I'm a pitcher like Blake Snell, by doing something
similar to what each of them had done throughout the
course of the four game series. And of course we
don't need to retell the story of Friday Night. We
all saw it. Well.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
You said it was gonna happen before it even happened,
Matt like like you were Karnak, that's what you like.
You had the big giant turn on like poonjabinnity envelope
to my head, did Jewel.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
Shone and glimmered in the sun?
Speaker 4 (08:26):
Had our Vince gully sweet And you said Otana's gonna
have the greatest night in the history of the world.
You know that's not what everybody said. I mean, Carol,
guys like this, and I think Latan's gonna shove you know,
they said stuff.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Like that, I wish I wish I were cool enough
to say something like.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
Yes, show, I wish I could hit a double every time.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
We lived at PE And as you detailed in the
top story last week, asking our listeners, where were you
in nineteen eighty eight when Gibbie hit the game one
walk off against the Ace? Where were you when Reggie
Bush was pushed over the gold line in South Bend?
Speaker 3 (09:00):
So Martin Stadium, puland Washington right.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
So too, will the question be asked game four of
the twenty twenty five National League Championship Series? Where were you.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Trying to my family that this was a big deal
and nobody cared?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
And I had a very similar situation except everyone of
and I would assume you had the same experience of
your friends. Are like, dude, what was it like to
be there? Man? I heard you on the field. What
was it like to be in there with those fifty
five thousand people witnessing the greatest individual performance in the
(09:41):
history of sports? And I had to explain, well, yes,
I could have witnessed it from the AM five to
seventy LA Sports iHeartRadio Suite, but instead I had the
great pleasure of hearing the first three strikeouts and first
home run on the radio from the Galpin Motors broadcast.
(10:06):
What a call in the vehicle that I have courtesy
of Galpin Masta my c X ninety P have plug
in hybrid suv as for Dan Stirkle, great guy, general manager.
As it was being broadcast, a great call from Nelly
and Rick Monday and the rest. I was able to
get in my living room patio doors open and join
(10:29):
with the wife and daughter as we all witness history together.
Sort of. They would pop their heads back in and
be like, what just happened? Why are you screaming? The
troves of people asking me and I don't know if
they asked you, pee, why didn't you stay? We even
said there's nowhere for me to go special, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
There's nowhere for me to I can't there's we'd have
to stand in the back of the suite that we
want to advertisers, people that spend a lot of money.
There's a seven hundred and fifty dollars sushi played. For
God's sakes, we don't belong on there.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
It's no offense to the people of the Presbyterian International House.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
No, we want them to enjoy their time. This it's
a big it's a big ball washing for the clients.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
We don't need to be there. We like our friends
to get out.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
Though, you know I will next time. I will wait
a couple of innings for the World Series on Friday
or whatever next week. Like I'm gonna wait a couple
of innings and then leave. You know, I might not
stay in the suite if it's real crowded, But this
is just logistical schedule talk for everybody. It is, yeah,
because I'm not gonna leave the stadium again. They're trying
(11:31):
to pack everybody in there like anchovies, and.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
They're terrible sharing that moment in the suite, even though
the suite has been upgraded considerably with the sushi plates
and the fresh fruit and.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
The feeling like you don't belong just like, you know,
feeling I felt like, you know, a Muslim in the Vatican,
you know, like in the last few years and this.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Year I felt like a rag doll being dragged from
Can you say how to these people? Her name is
Yvette and it and then with her is her brother
in law. His name is Chair.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
No one's trying to talk to me. I'm too weird looking.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I would rather just be sharing it with myself, watching
it on the telly, relaving the moment without any alternate listen.
They're looking at coming in on summer tour. Can you uh,
can you go get a plata nachos, put some chili
on it and offer them one, but make sure you
dip it in the sour cream first. Like that's that's
essentially what's going on in that suite. So for all
(12:31):
of those wondering, and I guess we could have walked
the concourse trying to stolen, to steal a seat somewhere.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
No, that's what Kate's does. Kate's walks the grounds like
until he feels at home.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
It was in the pavilion they were said, there was
a drum cucku kachew.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
I'm a man amongst the people, that's what.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
That's right. All the people you do laps, Kate's does
laps around Dodger Stadium. Are you there for all nine innings? Kates?
Speaker 3 (12:53):
No, I left Matt after the first Otani hole run.
I grabbed my backpack and I'm in a quick B
line in my.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Car, high tailed it out of there. And what we
have seen all postseason and again Micro and Macro in
this one game. Is that stars matter, Andrew Friedman told
us on the field Friday. The right stars matter when
you combine the talent with the work ethic, with the
winning gene. And so many of these players had it
before they got here. That's why they got their big
hundreds of millions of dollars contracts. Sasaki Yamamoto Otani from
(13:23):
the WBC that Japan won by completely dominating the rest
of the world. Freddie Freeman MVP in a World Series
in Atlanta, Mookie Bets MVP and World Series in Boston,
Blake Snell in Tampa, head to head with the Dodgers,
perhaps thwarting their twenty twenty World Series title had his
manager Kevin Cash left him in the game winning the
cy Young in San Diego. Those deals, yeah, they're gambles,
(13:45):
but the risk was so mitigated by all the information
that was already available, and you end up putting together
what Andrew Friedman told us he had in front of him,
and that is the greatest player in the history of
the game eventually is going to come around. Freddie Freeman
and Mookie Bets for their struggles throughout the course of
the season. Yeah, they were a combined one for twenty
(14:06):
one in the three games in twenty twenty three. But whatever,
you get to your five World Series in nine years,
have a chance to win your third. Good argue should
be winning their fourth after the cheating scandal of.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Wo Wow seven time, let's leave the pass in the past.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Even with just two championships and we expect it to
be three. Yes, we are fortunate and blessed to be
in a city charing for a team that has one
of the greatest dynasties, and eventually it very well could
go down as the greatest dynasty considering the monor era
and how hard it is to win consistently.
Speaker 4 (14:36):
Of any Dodgers have never done it. The Dodgers have
never won back to back World Series.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
So and yet here we are.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Yet here we are with another opportunity.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Eight and one. So you were right to ditch the
Serenity Brothers. I'm not saying we bring it back now.
Is this is not what that is. What it is
is simply recognizing regular season could be weird, like the
playoffs can be weird, and maybe we just need the
Panic Brothers to continue to panic while the organization does
(15:05):
everything to try to disaster proof this roster and win
another world.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
Maybe hell of everything we say and do has nothing
to do with anything that happens on the field, Just maybe,
But I'm not ready to admit that yet. Petros enbody
show continues. But the man, well, you're what he does matters.
David Roberts.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
Monday Night Football tonight Seattle Houston. That'll be at seven pm.
It's a Monday night football double header, so we're taking
the late game. No play by play tomorrow, but you'll
have off day Dot or talk as the World Series
does not get started until Friday. Wednesday. It is the
kickoff of the LA Clippers season. They will be in
Utah playing the Jazz. Thursday. We'll have Chargers Vikings Thursday
(16:08):
Night Football and then Friday, of course, Game one of
the World Series, Game seven between the Blue Jason Seattle
Mariners FAZ the Dodgers will wait their opponent. It will
determine whether or not they start at home or on
the road. Seattle, they start at home, Toronto, they will
start on the road, all.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Right on your Southern California Toyota Dealers Celebrity Hotline. As
the Dodgers continue to win, his legend grows, not just
for selling wine with the beautiful red Stitch Vinyard World
Series winning manager and doing a great job and challenging
(16:46):
the Dodgers to be better and better every single playoff series.
It is Dave Roberts joining us from Chavez Ravine and
the Dodgers workout today. World Series starts on Friday, and
we don't know who they're gonna get, but we do
know that ERTs will be pulling the levers and doing
this thing that excites the city so much. Dave, thanks
so much for doing it. We appreciate you. How are
(17:07):
you feeling today.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
I'm feeling good. Boys, getting ready on my way to
the ballpark right now. We got to work out today
and get to see some pitchers, some guys take batty practice.
We'll have that Game seven ALCS on at Dodger Stadium.
But like you said, Petures, I'm excited for our city.
Our city needs it, and our players are excited.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
It really is something special for the whole city. Everybody
talks about it in places that you could never imagine
them talking about baseball. But it is a uniting thing
for our city, like you said, Dave, and it's a
special thing. Do you like the five I mean, when
you have time off, no matter what, whether you like
it or not, do you feel good about filling it?
Speaker 5 (17:55):
You know what I do feel. I do like the
way we're feeling it. I think I think it's sort
of we're kind of at a place where it doesn't
really matter what we prefer. I like the idea of
not giving yourself an out or an excuse, so regose
of opponent, whether we travel Wednesday or we're home on
(18:16):
you know, we stay back and wait for the Mariners
or whatever, five days, keep going into a series. It
doesn't matter. As Yamamoto said, we could go. Losing is
not an option.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
You you had a choice, You had a very you know,
I would say, I don't know if it was tough
or easy. When it comes to who you wanted to
start Game one in each of these series, you decided
to go with Blake Snell, if it was Yamamoto, if
it was Glass novel, was Otani, nobody would have you know,
kinda said anything about it, just in terms of how
you lined it up. What was it that led you
to make that decision of how you wanted to lay
(18:48):
these starters out in that particular order.
Speaker 5 (18:52):
I think if you look at the schedule of that
cs UH, Blake is a guy that we felt most
comfortable going on regular rest, which is four days off. Yamamoto,
we've done a week off. We've done you know, five
days off for the most part of rest. And so
if you're looking at a potential game series, obviously you
(19:12):
know six games is more the sixth game is more
like the fifth game is more likely than the sixth game,
and so you try to put your players in the
best position have success. So if there was a fifth game,
we felt better with Blake and as opposed to Yamamoto
right there, and it kind of couldn't have worked out
any better.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
You go to the order, Dave, as Dave Roberts joins
us first game of the World Series will be Friday.
You will hear that at five eight pm. Opponent not
known yet Toronto or Seattle, but you go to the
lineup and here's Will Smith, who's who's dealing with a
fracture in a hand, not sure you know what series
is going to play in. But then we get to
the NLCS and man, it looked like Will Smith all
(19:52):
over again. Just kind of what is what is he
going through? Are you surprised by that performance at all?
And how hard is that? Because it feels like a
it's a very rhythm kind of position right hitting against
these pitchers who are so incredibly good, especially in the playoffs,
to be able to just kind of look like the
Will Smith we expected.
Speaker 5 (20:11):
Not surprised. You know, he's got a he's got a
really slow heartbeat. Certainly he's not one hundred percent. And
I got to give Ben Rourtvett a lot of props
for kind of being the stop gap behind the plate
and he was fantastic, and uh but yeah, to have
you know, a three time All Star back behind the
(20:32):
plate to hit him in the middle of the order,
we've obviously makes us a lot better. And I just
can't say enough about Will and very uh, you know,
in my opinion, is still very underrated.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
We can't say enough about the Dodgers and what they're doing.
It's been fun on the station, it's been fun in town.
And the man in charge, Dave Roberts, a great ambassador
at baseball to the whole city, is our guest right now.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
I got to ask because I mean, I know you
guys do a lot of things on purpose, but there's
got to be some luck involved as well. That all
four of these starters are up and running at this
point in the season. It had to be something you
guys had in mind all year.
Speaker 5 (21:13):
Yeah. I wouldn't say that's luck, though. I think that's
part of being able to hold. It's kind of like
that whole brave heart, you know, or Russell Crows or
Mel Gibson saying Emel, or Russell's saying hold hold, and
I think it's yes, Mel, And I think that it's
like with us. You know, whether you have Blake or
(21:35):
you have Tyler, you have and the guys in the
bullpen or you know, show Hey not ramping him up,
it's like hold, hold, hold, and you want to be
able to do it. So they have bullets at the
end of the season. So I do credit obviously the
entire organization. We have depth to kind of overcome a
summer where you're not fully healthy. But that wasn't luck.
(21:56):
That was more kind of methodical making sure we kind
of hold our guys back to make sure they're ready
to go when needed through October.
Speaker 4 (22:05):
And you know, it was kind of like that with
Otani and the pitching, the hold and what we've seen
is is unbelievable. We lack so much perspective on this, Dave.
I mean, you're a guy who did the impossible as
a player when you guys came back in Boston down
down oh three, So you've seen that, you know, in
your life before, something no one's ever done before, and
(22:27):
you're a big part of that, a legendary part of it.
Are we ever going to get perspective on what Otani's doing?
Can we ever really define it properly?
Speaker 5 (22:37):
I don't think so. You know what's funny is I
was talking to a friend of mine the other day
and he actually took offense to when I said it
was the greatest baseball performance of all time, And his
counter was, how do you even say that it's the
greatest sports performance of all times? So, you know what,
if you kind of put it in that context, it's
hard to argue that, but yeah, you know, he's usual player. Uh,
(23:01):
certainly the biggest of stages and what he did was,
uh was memorable. And I said it the other night,
It's like he created a lot of memories for a
lot of people that night.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Is it hard to put the roster together when you've
got to figure out whose because you know, you do
have those those guys like you mentioned Ben, you know,
and and how big he was in sort of splitting
those games with with Will Smith. But at this point
do you feel like it's it's automatic or are there
still some tough decisions to make when it comes to this, Uh,
this final series, I.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Think it's pretty much cut and paste, you know, for
from the CS to the World Series. Uh, there might
be one whether it's a position player pitcher we might
kind of flip in and out for depending on the
matchup potential. But I think that this one, you know,
seven game series, so you're certainly leaning a little bit
(23:52):
more towards the pitching. So yeah, I think it's pretty
going to be pretty similar.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
Just you know, we as we know the home runs, right,
those are great epic moments, you remember those. The starting
pitching has been so dominant, seems to be the prevailing
theme of the Dodgers through these nine games. But Dave,
what about defense, Like, can you share with us and
the listeners, like how much work goes into defense? Because
you think about you know, Freddy digging out that ball
(24:19):
to clinch a you know, to clinch a series, whether
or clinch a game. I should say about the wheel play,
just how much these players put into that particular facet
that maybe goes well. It is the most overlooked of
pitching and hitting, and then defense, of course is a huge.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
Part of it.
Speaker 5 (24:37):
Yeah, the defense and the base running certainly are overlooked,
and it's one of those things that really doesn't show
up in the scorecard. But yeah, and even key K's
play the other night was a special play and where
Shohy could have gotten a little bit more taxed and stressed,
and Kiky has any ending double play, you know, so
those things matter where well, I think, yeah, you mentioned
(24:58):
the Freddie play and there's a play even for that,
the force play to get that lead run and then
the screw from Tommy Edmund. And we've been very sound defensively,
and in the postseason things get so magnified and the
extra outs, the extra base that you give up or
the base that you can get on the offensive side
certainly get more magnified, especially when pitching is at a premium.
(25:20):
So it's something our guys work at every day. Chris Woodward,
Dino Ebel, all those guys put in a lot of work.
And our guys, to their credit, they love to practice.
They understand the little things of the game. And even
that Max Munty play, you know, that ball to his
left infield in fields, it slides, turns, throws a strike
(25:40):
to Will who makes a great catches. It makes a
great tag to kind of limit damage for a glass
now sending. So all those things don't get lost on us. Though.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
I got to ask you because you do such a
great job of celebrating your players and helping us find
perspective on what they're accomplishing and what kind of people
they are. But this is your tenth season as a
Dodger skipper, You're headed to your fifth World Series. You
know there's three guys like Key k, Munsey and Kersh
around from that twenty seventeen World Series team. Do you
(26:12):
allow yourself to look back on what you're accomplishing, what
you've been doing as a baseball manager for a decade.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
You know, I try not to kind of get into
that headspace. Certainly obviously gratitude for being in this organization.
I love the Dodgers. I said it many times over.
I've been invested for a long time. We have a
great organization, great players, you know what. Honestly, I just
(26:42):
guard against complacency and I'm always trying to get better,
trying to learn. But yeah, when you're talking about Allston,
you know, Tommy and Sparky Anderson in the postseason and
those names, Joe Torri, it's certainly mind blowing. But you know,
I guess I'll win four more games and then I'll
(27:03):
kind of reflect on that over the offseason.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
We know you got to go. But I would love
to ask real quick because we talked about it in
the open here, Dave, our role in all of this
and the clowns that we act like when we come
down on the field, do you do you notice certain
numbers of the media how they behave during the playoff
runs because we're wondering whether or not we're we're a
net positive or a net negative for the Dodgers. When
we come down for an hour doing our radio show,
(27:27):
on the wireless monkeys.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
Do you even notice? All right?
Speaker 5 (27:30):
I love it. I do notice. I noticed, and it's
certainly a net positive positive. I do think that obviously.
You know, you guys, You guys have a lot on
your plate. You know there's a lot of sports, a
lot going on in Los Angeles. But I do feel that,
you know, for where we've put the organization, the magnitude
of this series this postseason, for you guys to show
(27:51):
face that means a lot to the players and to
be boots on the ground. We love having you guys there.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
Iow that guy calling the Fresno game last week, and
now he's here with us.
Speaker 3 (28:00):

Speaker 4 (28:01):
Uh, We're gonna come dressed like the brave heart guys.
Speaker 5 (28:04):

Speaker 3 (28:09):
It's Dave Roberts with the Dodgers holding back the starters.
We love you, Dave.
Speaker 4 (28:13):

Speaker 2 (29:53):
I mean to have the eighty two game regular season
back debuting in u to side of a spot where
you were invited to take part in a threesome or
maybe it was going to be a voyeur expedition.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
I don't know what it was going to be. Are
you ever gonna mind?
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Why are you saying no? I wouldn't say no, do
it right now?
Speaker 3 (30:14):
Might have just put me in a trunk and put
a ballgag in my mouth.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Unless you there, that's true. You could have been again
still again, maybe some twenty years later. Yet here we
are doing afternoon radio as we handed off the Seahawks
versus Texans Monday Night football.
Speaker 4 (30:29):
This has been scheduled talking all right for the dead
Guy birthday of the day. Today we go into the
world of French poetry symbolism with Arthur Rumbo, the wild
French poet one hundred and seventy one years old today
(30:49):
from Charlieville, France, not the street below Wiltshire where my
ex lived, but northeastern France.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
Easily confused.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
Yeah right there below Wilshire.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
Brombo's father was an army captain not around much, married
a girl from a bohemian family, Thus the conflict and
the great French poet Arthur Rumbo. He learned Latin and
was schooled, ran away to Paris and was arrested for
not being able to pay his ticket. His mother slapped
him down hard. Apparently he ran away again and went wild.
(31:30):
He drank, he talked trash, He wrote poems about poop,
scatalogical poems.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
My favorite I know.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
He stole books from the library, and he grew his
hair long. Sounds like a real Heshure long hair, don't
care our kind of guy. By eighteen seventy one, he
was wrapped up in a violent, very famous. What he's
most famous for, other than the poetry, is his violent
relationship with the famous French poet Paul Verlaines, or as
(32:02):
they say here, Verlaine. Poets were the rock stars of
the eighteen hundreds, and they had a torn affair. Verlaine
was married to a seventeen year old girl who was
pregnant at the time. He abused both mother and infant,
Verlaine and Rombeau smoked opium, they smoked hash, they drank hard.
(32:26):
It was a scandal in the literary community. They went
to London to live in poverty. They became bitter with
each other. They tried to rekindle it in Brussels, and
Verlaine ended up shooting him in the arm, fired off
a few rounds at old art Rombeau, but he wrote,
and he still holds a bohemian influence on modern literature
(32:49):
today and the arts and for libertines everywhere.
Speaker 3 (32:54):
Matt.
Speaker 4 (32:56):
But ultimately, after his two year traveling gay affair ended,
he straightened up and he flew right. He traveled extensively
as a merchant. He straightened up, traveled as a merchant
and explorer. He went all over Europe. He went to Asia, Cyprus,
(33:16):
went to Africa and sold arms. One of three. It's
just that little chapter of his life. Yeah, well, actually
that's basically what he did for the longest time. He's
one of three people like to visit Ethiopia that were
European at the time. You know, Africa was very unexplored
(33:36):
sirteenth century. That's why we have, you know, a heart
of darkness. He died of cancer in Marseille. Was very
different from his poor poetic life. He was simple, quiet, sarcastic, rich,
but he was only thirty seven when he died. Arthur
Rombeau a famous French poet that everybody can explore.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
All the works have been translated. Well, I would say,
opposite end of the spectrum is our a live guy.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
Gay affair Arthur Rambo?
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Yes, then gay affair Arthur Rambaud.
Speaker 4 (34:10):
You see, you see these rifles? I sold them for
an African civil war. But do they call me Arthur
Rumbo the arms dealer?
Speaker 5 (34:17):
No?
Speaker 4 (34:18):
But you have one wild gay affair with one other
French poet who's also as famous as me.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
And they call you gay Arthur.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
That's right. Eighty seven years old. Dolores Hicks turned Dolores Heart,
turned sister, Dolores turned mother. Dolores born in Chicago only child.
Father was in the movie business and followed an offer
(34:47):
to Hollywood, so she grew up out here Saint Gregory's,
but her parents divorced and she moved in with her grandparents.
Her grandfather was a projectionist and that is where her
passion for acting was born. She went to the All
Girls Corvallis High School, then Marymount College here in Los Angeles.
Speaker 4 (35:07):
All those those chicks don't wear g string underwear Marymount. No,
they wear full colo, full full colo underwear. I have
experience with this.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
Yes, very school place.
Speaker 4 (35:21):
They double up Marymount. There's one by USC and there's
one by UCLA. And the one thing they have in
common is well, it's the same school, different campuses and
full ass underwent.
Speaker 2 (35:30):
Yeah, the Granny panties fifty six. She's just nineteen years old,
and Dolores Hart, her screen name, was cast as Elvis's
love interest in Loving You. She would share the screen
with Anthony Quinn and Wild is the Wind, Maureen Stapleton
(35:53):
and Lonely Hearts, and then as a supporting actress, not
just a fleeting interest opposite Elvis again in King Creole.
Speaker 4 (36:03):
Now, King Creole is pretty sweet, right, it's still Flaming
Star where Elvis plays a Native American half breed, but
still pretty good.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
You get the you still get the real effect from
Elvis as a King Creole.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
You're missing a real effect here.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Broadway came Call and she won the Tony for Best
Featured Actress for her role in the Pleasure of His company.
She landed starring roles in Hollywood. Following that in nineteen
sixty only twenty one at the time, she was a
box office draw and Where the Boys Are and Francis
of ASSISI a role that would impact the rest of
(36:39):
her life. She met Pope John the twenty second while
on set.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
I heard that whole thing really happen, angels and demons.
I watched it.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I listen, not trying. He burned his chest, Dan Brown
told me. After filming there, she picked up another script
lead role in The Inspector, which she shined would be
nominated for Best Picture Drama at the Golden Globe sixty three.
She does the film Come Fly with Me, another huge hit, and.
Speaker 3 (37:10):
Then that Birth the Frank Sinatra song.
Speaker 2 (37:15):
You Know It at Birth p Bertha Calling, as did
the Mountain of the Sun episode at the Virginian, where
she played Catholic missionary. A Catholic missionary she was twenty
four at the time. During the filming to have Come
Fly with Me, she became close friends with Carl Maldon,
who also starred in the picture. Malden said whenever he
and his wife Mona wanted to go out, Dolores would
(37:36):
babysit their kids. She got engaged to La architect Don Robinson,
asked Malden's daughters to be her bridesmaids, and then a
month later showed up at their door, said she was
calling off the wedding, handed her worldly possessions, jewelry, purses
and value to the girls.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
It's all off, that's all you.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Course, she said she was moving away and that it
was a quote affair of the heart. While Hart was
making Francis of ASSISI in Rome, after meeting Pope John
the twenty third, I said, twenty second, twenty third, the
wheel started spinning. Ultimately, she entered the Abbey of Virgina
Loudis in Connecticut. She initially took the religious named Sister Judith,
(38:20):
changed it to Sister Dolores in her final vows to
please her mother. Took her final vows in nineteen seventy
and still today. She chanced in Latin eight times a day.
She left behind a fiance, a burgeoning acting career, and
even though she broke off her engagement to Robinson, she admitted,
as Robinson says he remembers the exact words quote of course,
(38:41):
don I love you, But every love doesn't have to
wind up at the altar. Robinson would never marry visit
her every year at Christmins.
Speaker 4 (38:51):
No John Robinson, he had like four wives after that.
He was a coach at usc.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
Different I'm played for him. No No, with the d don.
Speaker 3 (39:00):
I loved her, but she left me for Jesus.
Speaker 2 (39:03):
The documentary God Is Bigger Than Elvis, which told her story,
was nominated for an Oscar and Sister Dolores. Then Mother
Dolores showed up at the Academy Awards eighty seven today
Dolores Heart Order of Saint Benedict.
Speaker 4 (39:21):
Also, I heard the inspiration for the Flying Nun with
Sally Field.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
I think she was a Yeah, maybe Sally Field not
a Virgin, I was gonna say. I get the feeling
that her Roman Catholic background from the time she was ten,
combined with walking away from leading roles in Hollywood. Maybe
suggestion perhaps, but you don't know.
Speaker 3 (39:45):
You'll never know.
Speaker 4 (39:49):
Petersonboddy will return tomorrow for another four hour show, Play
seven Come Out Home Forget Scam at six am with
