Speaker 1 (00:50):
Come and take a buy the mask, TI get a
fight up because it's about time.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Toot on some kind of It's a work in progress,
but it's better than what you got.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Ryan, Bye bye, Melinda.
Speaker 4 (01:02):
Hello, nerdy news brought to you by that mortgage guy
Don from that mortgage guy Don dot com.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
But more on that later.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Well, if flying wasn't enough, nerd stuff counts with space stuff.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
That's where I'm going with this.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Uh, if flying wasn't worrisome enough for you already, between
the passengers and the and the technical issues and everything
that can go wrong and maybe your flights get delayed,
Well here's a new little thing for you to think
about what For the first time ever in history, Russ
a Boeing in flight at thirty eight thousand feet was hit.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Oh, it's all by space debris.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
What are the chances space debris would hit a plane
while it's flying in the air.
Speaker 5 (01:48):
It hit the front pass or the front cabin, right
in the window and it shattered the glass, which was
enough to spray glass onto the pilot, causing lacerations in
his arm.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
And they said, yeah, the odds of this rust.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Various scientists have tried to calculate this since this news
story broke.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
It's somewhere in the one in a billion range.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
One in a billion.
Speaker 6 (02:11):
Yeah, have you I mean, have you ever seen the
images of what low space looks like right outside of
the lower orbit?
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Yes, lower Earth orbit? Thank you? Have you ever seen
the images of that? I have not. It's a space junkyard,
it is.
Speaker 6 (02:24):
We've just we we have no idea how much junk
and old satellites and all this stuff that's out there.
I'm surprised that this doesn't happen even more.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
It's probably it's going to happen more.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
I thought it all burn up though.
Speaker 6 (02:41):
There's so much junk up there and rush that stuff
is going to make it through like this, look at that.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
I don't know when this articles from, but this article
from Box says there are three hundred thousand pieces of
garbage floating Earth and it's a big problem. It's a
big problem in a couple of different ways, because this
kind of stuff is going to happen more and more
the more we add garbage. I mean, we're launching satites
and stuff every other day at this point.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Oh there were, yeah, a couple this weekend.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
And then there's also the look at that, the very
real possibility that if we keep shooting stuff up into
space like this, that we will lock ourselves into our planet,
like we won't be able to ever go past low
Earth orbit because there's too much stuff in the way. No,
this is real, can get through the junk, Yeah, because
you have to just.
Speaker 6 (03:21):
Like humans, whatever it is, we're just going to follow
it all where it's the ocean, whether it's the Earth.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Now we've cluttered up space.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Yeah, and the thing about we are.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
The cancer on Earth.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
Yeah, you have to remember, like this stuff is traveling
at like one hundred and eighty thousand miles an hour,
So even just a tiny screw when they have to do.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Like the space shuttles, they have to prepare for like
a tiny screw.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
And I've seen it where they show what the whole
the impact like that would make. And these astronauts over time,
whether space walks and whatnot, not even just the satellites
where they know where the satellites are, but astronauts have
lost like a wrench or a screwdriver on the way.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Okay, question, I'm just curious that this is could be
I don't know, a future job, right, there's a future job.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Where you have space janitor.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
You're in a space ship and your job is as
a run around and to I don't know, use laser
beams to get rid of all the trash.
Speaker 6 (04:11):
Right, there's like there was a series on There was
a series on Netflix that that was the theory or
the like, there was the premise of it.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Yeah, I thought I thought of that this is a
couple of years ago.
Speaker 6 (04:21):
It was actually not a bad series at all to
get rid of space junk.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Now, Yeah, Space Space Janitor coming this fall at NBC.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Space Channel, and you just got to kind of yeah
that I think that'd be a cool job.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
I mean, we got to do something about it. It's
a real problem. Like I said, it's only getting worse
with the more star links and the Amazon's got theirs
going up now.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
So just be prepared.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
If you're looking out the window, if you're flying across
the Atlantic, you might see something fly through.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
How that was the plane going and the plane's going probably.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Around six an hour and for it to actually hit, yeah,
it's very like.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
The probability of it is so small, which is why
it's never happened before. I mean, you got thousands of
planes in the air right now and stuff is falling
all day long all over the planet. But it did happen,
and it looked pretty brutal. That I mean that that
is the ultimate act of God, right, like if your
plane goes down from a meteor or a because they don't.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Know space junk.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Yeah, they don't know if it's space junk or a meteor,
but definitely came from space.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Hit this plane right in the cockpit.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Angel, I don't want to be hit there.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
You not want to be hitting.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
The cockpit, worst place where some people pay good money
for it.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
Maybe, but a high heel falls from space and it's
just right in the anyway, Angel, is a gamer.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Angel.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
I heard you on the Colbert Show on Friday, and
you were you were, you were laying how much you
actually play Grand Theft Auto?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Yeah, and you said, are you judging me? No?
Speaker 3 (05:46):
No, no, no no.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
It was more than I realized though, because you said
somewhere between five to ten hours.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Oh, it's ten is on the low? Oh is it really? Okay?
Speaker 3 (05:55):
But Grand Theft.
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Auto five came out in twenty thirteen, making it a
twelve year old game at this point, and Grand Theft
Out of six is coming out next year.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Year.
Speaker 6 (06:05):
They're getting ready to make it impossible that you can
buy mansions.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
Okay, okay, now, Russ, how much do you think Grand
Theft Auto five since it's released in twenty thirteen?
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Him?
Speaker 4 (06:18):
And that's including that's the big sales of the game,
and their online sales as well, for like the live
service that they do.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
I know that it will astonish me. So I'm gonna
give a really wild, crazy, like over a billion dollars.
It's hilarious.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
It's a hilarious answer.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Angel.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
Do you know the answer to this?
Speaker 1 (06:35):
I don't know. I would say, let's say three billion.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Grand Theft Auto generated approximately eight point six to ten
billion in revenue since twenty thirteen.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
That's crazy.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
That is a lot of the moon Lah and Grand
Theft Out of six is slated to be the biggest
video game release of all time.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
And imagine if you were the guy that sat down
and wrote out, here's the running the I we'll make
a video game and basically it's going to be running
around and slapping hookers and shooting people and selling okay,
and the madness, the horrible, the most horrible things that
people can do. And that's gonna be the game. Yeah,
and that won't make any Money's ten billion dollars.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
One billion dollars at least, I said, I believe you
said the other day. The video game industry is worth
more than the movie industry, more than the music industry combined.
It's crazy how much money this stuff makes. But gamers
are mad. Gamers are mad because oh, it's going to
get ugly. Well because the who was it? It was
the developer of Saints Row, which is another video game
(07:35):
kind of similar to Grand Theft autom not as good.
Speaker 6 (07:37):
Gta's basically spawned off a whole generation or whole series
russ up these kind of violent gung toading gangster games.
Saints Row the initial one was probably one of the
closest ones Mafia. The initial one was probably a close
one as well.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Yeah, but the developer of Saints Row caused a bunch
of stir because he says the price of Granted Thought
six should be one hundred dollars. Yeah, for the game
right now, Like in theory it's slated to be around
sixty nine to ninety nine, but this guy developer wants
it to be one hundred dollars a game.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
The game is mad as hell about but they.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
All will pay the one hundred bucks. They'll pay it, Sure,
they'll pay it.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
But like you can't understand.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
He plays it like it's not like you just watch
it once. I mean it's hours and hours and hours.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Yeah, but one hundred dollars is a lot of money
either way.
Speaker 6 (08:27):
I'll tell you rust that the that would be at
that price point, you would not get it. Not that
I would not get it, No, no, no, yeah, I
want to see what they're what they're kind of doing
or like giving me for that, right, So I get it.
It's endless gameplay, sure, but one of the knocks that
they've had right now, with Grand Theft Auto five, they
(08:48):
really haven't brought anything to the table in the last
let's say, two or three years. Is that making it
that you have to play? The people that are playing it,
it's just because that's what they love, right, you know.
And so that for one hundred bucks, what are you
giving me? You know, tell me that you're making it
worth my value or work worth that investment.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah, and I didn't realize how much it was to
make the game. They're talking it was a billion dollars
in development right now.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
But if you're going to pull in.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
You know, eight to ten probably more, just with inflation
and everything. One hundred dollars, mostly on the online stuff.
One hundred dollars does seem too much. I hope I
don't start seeing more because they're going to set the
precedent that means there's gonna be more one hundred dollars
video games, and that prices a lot of people out,
like one hundred bucks to me, sure I wasted on
gambling all the time, right to like, but twenty year
old me couldn't afford one hundred dollars video game.
Speaker 6 (09:41):
That goes to that whole argument. Russa and we were talking.
We talked about it briefly. What a couple of weeks
ago when the guy from the CEO of Live Nation
it says like, hey, yeah, we're selling tickets too cheap.
We need to sell tickets at three hundred dollars to
go see me, to go to a concert. This is
that same mentality. Basically, you're you're ringing the hands of
your p one.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Eventually. Yeah, essentially, you know.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
It's hard for me because this means I'm gonna have
to buy a PlayStation five.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
I'm already on the hook.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
Because I have a Microsoft Xbox, but I have the
last gen Xbox and when the new one won't even
be able to run it. But I found out because
I was I was like, okay, let's go in, let's
cancel the subscription for Xbox. My Xbox account was hacked
by Russians. Hacked by Russians, straight up. I was able
to eventually get in. But a Russian has been using
my account because I haven't been on Xbox Live in
like several years, has been using my account, been having
(10:31):
a great time, really.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Raised my gamer score quite a bit.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
But there's all these messages going back and forth in
Russian that I need to get translated because I don't
I don't know. Apparently Microsoft got hacked a while back
and a lot of people's like Microsoft three sixty five
lives their passwords released out into the wild, so be
prepared for that as well.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
So looking forward to Grand Theft Auto six. But yeah,
I gotta buy. I gotta buy a ps PS five.
I've never been a PlayStation boy.
Speaker 6 (10:58):
I gotta connect for you if you need one. Okay,
someone that we know, one of their kids works at a.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Place, Okay, just so you know.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Okay, it's not a fell off a truck situation.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
No, No, that would be way better. Okay, but that's
not the situation, right.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Yeah, And I'm gonna need about two months off at
the beginning of twenty twenty six when this when this
game gets released, play.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
I'm gonna take it.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
I'm taking the month of May and June off just
to get through this.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
Yeah, we're gonna have to do it. We're gonna have
to do like a live from Rockstar City.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
And you've just heard the NERD brought to you by
that mortgage guy down from that mortgage guy done dot com.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
That is like, we're crazy, I know nothing about any
of those games. Yeah, I'm not a gamer.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
Well, when when City Scapes two three we gets released, right,
I'll be.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Sure to let you know because you do play that game.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
I did for a little while. Yeah, and I build
my own city and I could be the mayor.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
Well, if you want to be the mayor of a town,
you should live there first. And you can do that
with that mortgage guy down with that mortgage guide don
dot Com.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Traditional mortgage refin, he locks whatever.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
He demystifies the mortgage business on Saturdays from nine ten
thirty here on Real Radio.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
And so you've just heard the nerds. Shall be all
right when.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
We come back. Class meets corn dogs when we return.
I wanted to see if the Wine Diva could pair
wine with corn dogs, the trashiest thing I can think of,
And well we will do that when we return. Don't
go anywhere. You're listening to the mantras morn all right.
(12:33):
So this basically, Ryan, we just came out with this
because we wanted to get corn dogs one day and
I'm like, okay, well let's see if we can if
we can have the Wine Diva pair wine with corn dogs,
because there are some foods you compare and they taste good.
Some work and some and some don't. Now some and
(12:55):
how you doing wine? Diva? And and russo here?
Speaker 7 (12:57):
How are you great? Am I on?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
You are on?
Speaker 8 (12:59):
I am on?
Speaker 1 (13:00):
I figured something out as I was thinking about you,
right like she is to me a combination of of
Daisy and Amber. And what I mean is is that
that you've got. You've got a gimmick. You love wine
the way the way Amber always talks about wrestling. That
you you know you love wine. And then you also
have the gimmick where you always wear the same dress,
(13:21):
like or not the same dress, but the same type
of dress. Uh. So you got that gimmick.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
And then you were drinking wine as soon as we
got here, just like Daisy as always drinking tequila as
soon as she gets here. It's sort of you. You
kind of have all the then of a character.
Speaker 8 (13:39):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
And you are a little bit classy. And and and
when I asked you if you really normally would drink,
I mean, not drink but eat corn dogs.
Speaker 8 (13:48):
You're like, no, yeah, yeah, I am on right, just
okay here myself.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Well turn yourself up there right there to you?
Speaker 7 (13:55):
Where is it?
Speaker 1 (13:56):
There's a little button right there. Ry, I help her
out there, but you turn yourself up. I can hear you.
Speaker 7 (14:00):
Oh yeah, yeah, so I can hear it.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Thank you, You can hear yourself.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
Yeah. Okay.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
So so wine is your thing, and I gave you
the challenge what would what did we do last time?
What did we pair last time when you were in
kettle corn? Yeah, that's right, and and actually it paired
very well. It actually tastes the pretty good you know,
those two things hit. So when I gave you the
challenge of of corn dogs and Chef Ken is here.
(14:26):
Uh he made us fresh corn dogs today.
Speaker 8 (14:28):
They're gourmet rush, They're gourmet corn dogs. They're fancy corn dogs.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Gourmet corn dogs. What makes it? What makes some gourmet?
Speaker 9 (14:38):
They're not gourmet. They're just made in house.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
They're made in house. Okay.
Speaker 8 (14:42):
He's got a whole rash batter and like you know,
I mean, it's a whole thing.
Speaker 7 (14:47):
That's why I I was excited about.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
This, a tiny restaurant over there, like in the corner
of my heart. He's got like the friars going other stations,
I believe infiltrated and they're like, can you make can
you make us some corn dogs too.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Did you did you make some rememba? Good? Okay, all right,
it's fine, that's good. Uh so uh so, yeah, so
thank you for that. We've got fresh made corn dogs.
Bo Outlaw got his Now bo Outlaws said it needed
to be crunch. Here is what he said. I had
double fried it this time. Boss.
Speaker 9 (15:16):
He walked out and he said, hey, double fry that
he needs some crunch.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Okay, all right, so there you go. He was like,
the test dummy on it. That's good. Okay. So wine diva,
what is it? How are we doing this? How are we?
Speaker 8 (15:29):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Why did you bring and how are we pairing this
with corn dogs?
Speaker 9 (15:33):
So?
Speaker 8 (15:34):
Sanser is a French white wine. That's the blanc is
always going to be one hundred percent Savignyon blanc.
Speaker 7 (15:42):
Uh huh.
Speaker 8 (15:43):
If you have a red Sansa, it's going to be
all peinu noir. This is just under their French wine laws.
But we're in the Loire Valley.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (15:50):
Now, Savignon blanc is a very high acid grape and
this is unoaked and it actually the high sit in
the seven blanc cuts through the fat and grease of
the corn dog.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Ok So that's this is the first corn dog here
the closes. Now, if we're gonna pair it with wine,
should we do any dipping or no dipping into the wines?
Speaker 9 (16:14):
We actually have different We actually have different Go ahead, Yeah,
we have totally different batters on the corn dogs and sauceage.
So the first one is a pork brat worst and
it is a buffalo spiced batter. And then there's some
(16:34):
blue cheese dressing.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
And so should we dip it in the dressing to
go with the wine or not go for it? I'm asking.
I'm not asking you. I'm asking she is the one
that knows how it pairs with.
Speaker 8 (16:45):
Let's just try it with without the sauce.
Speaker 7 (16:49):
Try this.
Speaker 8 (16:49):
I like the fact that it's a little spicy because
Salon blanc is it'll it'll actually mute the spiciness.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
All right, take a bite, bite your corn dog.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Bite? Oh pretty good, pretty good? Cheers watching you need
a corn dog's funny now taste? Okay, it pairs pretty well,
we do you think, Ryan? It's just a cheesy way
for us to get corn dogs.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
Yeah, but okay, I didn't know you could like fancy
have a corn dog either?
Speaker 3 (17:24):
But yeah, the two flavors work very well together.
Speaker 8 (17:27):
Yeah, it almost like so Savignon blanc is such a
diverse great, uh huh. It's growing in several countries, but
it is originally from France and Unoa. There there's like
no residual sugar. It's high acid. That's why a lot
of times people do champagne with French fries.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
No joke. It really does pairwell together.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Yeah, it's delicious.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Okay, A good job.
Speaker 8 (17:52):
Yeah, And all these are on my Instagram under Rusa
Wine Companies.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
And if you want to order any of these four
for the Thanksgiving or anything like that, that's what you do.
Speaker 8 (18:00):
Yeah, you can go to Russowinecompany dot com. You can
go to my instagram Russo Wine Company. You can d
M me my phone numbers on there, text me, email
me to make place orders and then I delivered to
your home or office.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Okay, very nice. Okay, I can't remember us. You are
you aller? Blue cheese? Is are you? Uh? They said
I was supposed to be. Yes, this ranched too if
you need it.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Okay, I didn't mind a little blue cheese and then
had some wine. Didn't know those two.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Together, Angel, What do you think about the pairing of
corn dog and wine. It works. It does work, isn't
it weird? Yeah? Yeah? Okay, So what's the next one?
Is this the same kind of corn dog? No, no,
this is different.
Speaker 9 (18:39):
This is your traditional everyday fair park corn dog.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Okay, all right, and we're gonna pair this with the white.
Speaker 8 (18:46):
Wine or this one's going with red Okay, all right,
so we're y'all need to chug a lug.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Oh we only have one glass. Gotta chug it. Okay. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (18:56):
So so basically I did. I did a Red Blends.
There's a lot of affordable wines. This is also sustainably
farmed from Lodi, California, and it's called Ghost Runner and
it's cabernet, savignon and zinfandel and it's in toasted French oak.
Speaker 7 (19:19):
Barrels very night.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
It's like, I said, the same way that Ambernova only
talks wrestling, Like did you talk to you talked to
Andresso about anything? It's all wine, wine? Why wine? Little
little wine jokes too, Like what was the thing you
said the other about?
Speaker 8 (19:34):
Oh oh well, since we had we had a little delay.
Speaker 7 (19:37):
I said, everything happens for a reestling.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
So cheesy. But what she said, oh my God, she's Amberno,
but in the wine world, okay, and let me give
some of the angel Yes, we got to hook angel up. Okay,
all right, and while she's hooking Angel up, can thank
you for doing this? Welcome.
Speaker 9 (19:59):
Let's I also say that uh Ann and I have
been talking. I do a lot of pairing dinners, and
I've done one. I've done actually I think too maybe
for your for your for your foundation donated during the drives. Yeah,
and they've gone very well. And actually, let me tell you,
(20:21):
I actually went and did the life imaging and found
out that I have clogging in my widow maker and
had to get like the full on really ath and
check to make sure I had didn't need a stint.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Was it the corn dogs?
Speaker 1 (20:36):
It was the corn dogs.
Speaker 9 (20:38):
It was the corn dogs and the gummy bears.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
So you went and got the free heart scanning, found
out that you had got the free heart scan and
then there were so many of these stories that we
can't even keep track of them, but I'll use you
in the next commercial.
Speaker 9 (20:49):
But that was absolutely amazing.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Yeah, I'm glad you And then you might be doing
some stuff for my son's wedding coming up, which we
are definitely doing something which is very very cool. Yeah, okay,
why Diva is back and now we have red wine
once again. This was a crazy idea. I just wanted
corn dogs one day and I challenged wine Diva. I'm like,
I bet you can't pair you know, corn dogs with wine.
And the first one I would say was a hit.
(21:13):
What's the second one?
Speaker 8 (21:14):
So this, this is just a classic corn dog, and
so I just thought, well, why not just pair it
with a with a red blend?
Speaker 7 (21:21):
Uh huh Okay, So yeah, let's give it a shot.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Okay, here we go. A classic corn dog, very good
me can't beat that, right, and a red wine. It
makes it fancy. It's a mount door corn dog.
Speaker 7 (21:38):
That's delicious.
Speaker 8 (21:39):
Yeah yeah, because I mean, if you think about it,
the tannic structure of a red wine cuts through the
fat of like like you know, like the like the pork,
the beef, hot dog filet mignon a rib and that's
why people really like to pay high fatty meats with
(22:03):
with the red wine. So yeah, it actually it's it's
a good pairing for the classic corn dog because it
is mainly like beef.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
I do like all the wines that you've you've brought
in here, like I've been to other places and like
that one doesn't taste good, but the ones you've brought
in have been very very good.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
Straight dipping mine and see how.
Speaker 7 (22:24):
Dip it in the water.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Okay, that's that's tacky. That's as tacky as it could be.
Well some mayonnaise.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Yeah. Are they making wine sauce yet? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (22:40):
I mean there's there's white wine sauces.
Speaker 9 (22:42):
Like yeah, cooked with wine constantly as an alcoholic. People
are always like, how do you deal with cooking with alcohol?
Speaker 1 (22:52):
But when you cook with alcohol, it cooks, The cooks
the alcohol out still holding the bottle though, Yeah, but
you still have to. Yeah, And like you guys had that.
Speaker 9 (23:02):
Conversation at the six o'clock hour, like, yeah, man, when
it's when you're an alcoholic, you're an alcoholic, it's a
different story, right.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
So yeah, so so so Wine Diva, you did pretty well.
That was that was that was both of those. It
made it made it made the corn dog taste better
when you pair it with the wine.
Speaker 8 (23:22):
Yeah, yeah, I mean wine wine is designed, you know,
to compliment foods, and that's why there's different cultures and
like when you go to France or you go to Portugal.
You know, their local cuisine is designed for the wines
(23:42):
that they grow. So yeah, but I mean at the
end of the day, it's all about what you like
and what you enjoy. And you know, I sell thousands
of wines like all over the world.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
So what's the fancy word for what you are? Do
they teach your like oky, the this is what pairs
with this? Like is that part of the Yes?
Speaker 4 (24:03):
So as long have you been here from Africa?
Speaker 7 (24:08):
That's not me, You're You're precious. So no, I I've
been studying.
Speaker 8 (24:18):
I started studying with the Court and Master Somalia, and
then I switched to Wine Spirit Education Trust and I
study with the local Slate Wine Academy and it's an
amazing program. And yes, they do teach you about wine
and food pairing.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
You've had wines you don't like, right, You've had wines
like oh that's terrible.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
Yeah, I mean I don't.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
I only sell wines that I enjoy, and you know
it's a representation of my education and my and my
passion for wine. So it's like, I I don't want
to sell crappy.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Wines, any bad one. Yeah, what's the threat. You have
a third bottle here? What's third bottle?
Speaker 8 (24:59):
So our third bottle is going to be a twenty
year old age tawny port.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
So okay, when it's twenty years old, it's supposed to
be better.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
Is that the so?
Speaker 8 (25:09):
So ports can age really well, it's a fortified wine,
and you you can have ten twenty thirty, you know,
forty year old age ports. But this one in particular
I really enjoyed because the producer was one of the
all right, I got a cheat and look at this
(25:31):
a little bit. Okay, So Walter Maynard, it's Maynard's age
port dates back to sixteen fifty two. So he was
one of the original British wine.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
Merchants and his family just kept going.
Speaker 7 (25:47):
To the family.
Speaker 8 (25:48):
It's and there's a long tradition within this this porthouse.
But yeah, the porthouses are basically run mainly by British families.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
At this point was port Let's give it a shot
like champagne or like it comes from a region in Portugal,
but other places produce it, do they have to not
call it port wine?
Speaker 8 (26:10):
Well, so like traditionally Portuguese wine law protected port should
come from Portugal only. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, there's
like Porto. Porto is a city, but they have their
own grapes in Portugal.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Oh I thought it was like a port, like a
like a a ship pulls into a port. For the
longest time, I didn't know it was Portugal.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
This is what people in ports drink when they work
the dock.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Yeah. Wine.
Speaker 8 (26:44):
So actually the history is that Portugal and the UK
have a like England. They have a really good relationship
for years, and they would fortify the wine so that
it could sit on the ships while it doesn't go bad.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
I got you.
Speaker 8 (27:01):
So it makes it kind of yeah, it makes it
age worthy. It can withstand like the rust seas and
and just kind of let's.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Port real quick if you've gotta go a break here
in a second. So so yeah, down, down, your down,
your wine and we'll go to the port wine and
give it a shot. This this was gonna be paired
with the dessert.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
So you're gonna I guess did you.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Bring a dessert? Chocolate egg rolls? Bro oh wow, chocolate
egg rolls. I'll take another corn dog. You can have
another car.
Speaker 7 (27:35):
I mean you can pair it with the corn dog.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Yeah, yeah, all right, So Ryan gets your get you
he said, he's good, Yeah, he's good. Yeah, all right,
this is the this is the port let's try that it.
It smells different. It doesn't smell like wine. Why is that?
And russo?
Speaker 7 (27:55):
Okay? So well, first of all, it's fourtified with a.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
Grape speed it.
Speaker 7 (28:01):
It's fortified means.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
I know what that means. But tell the audience that
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (28:06):
In the fermentation process, they add this high alcohol grape
spirit or brandy and it stops the fermentation, which maintains
the residual sugar in the grape. But then it increases
the alcohol by volume. And this is aged in big
(28:27):
casks and they they call it twenty year because the
average age of all this wine juice in these casks
is an average aging of twenty years.
Speaker 7 (28:38):
Oh wow, Now you've got to keep in mind.
Speaker 8 (28:40):
And Portugal they've got their own grape, so like to
Regan Nationale is like the big number one, like big
grape trigger Nationale. This is these aren't grapes that are
just indigenous to port Portugal.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
That's really good and it makes a little bit of
brandy and the conversation turns everybody on.
Speaker 9 (28:58):
Me. You can't talk about wine like that without just
getting excited.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
That's just you sound so excited, Chef. I'm very excited,
he said that. With so much exciting I do.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
And I tell my wife to dirty talk. I'm just like,
tell me about the history of port One.
Speaker 8 (29:14):
Yes, I mean, I mean that's actually like my life goal.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
So, and people want to get a hold of you,
and they want to get any of these wines or
or they need one. They need you to come and
do it white taste or whatever.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
Thank you very much. Okay, so news in the headlines
is making all the all the news this morning. It's
all everywhere.
Speaker 3 (33:25):
And you guys know I hate to talk about politics. No, no,
but no.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
Saturday was the no Kings Day protests over seven may
thank you all fake And here's my thing, like did
all those people vote? Like, like, if you voted, okay,
but if you didn't vote and you showed up at
that thing, you're shooting yourself in the foot. It's like,
it's like, what, what's the point? What are you saying?
My point is don't protest? Now, you can protest, but
it's like if you didn't, if you didn't vote in
(33:51):
your protesting, you should have been out there voting instead
of there's no way to know that. Well, there is
no way to know that. But that's all I was thinking,
was like, I wonder if all these people voting, because
you're sitting there now, you're taking time to go protest
as opposed to did you vote when it was time
to vote?
Speaker 6 (34:05):
Or as opposed to what an awesome response? Seven million
people came out and protested and there's no violence, no issues.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Everything went well, there's that one guy.
Speaker 6 (34:13):
Yeah, though, one thing that you're worried about is that
that everybody voted.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
Yes, I was thinking about that. I'll be honest with you.
I'm talking about did you all you all you seven million,
were you out there voting when you were supposed to,
because if you didn't, you were lazy, And now you're
out there protesting, and.
Speaker 6 (34:26):
Uh, it's pretty safe to assume that they all voted,
you think, so, yeah.
Speaker 4 (34:30):
Yeah, if you're willing to go out and protest in
the middle of the day on a Sunday when it's
football Sunday, you probably voted.
Speaker 6 (34:36):
It's typically the people that get out in protests are
the ones that are active voting and went out.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
They had they had a really good, uh, really good
show up. I guess in Seminole County. There was thousands
of people that showed up all this county as well.
Downtown Orlando was popping. Yeah, that we had a bunch
of really good protests.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
I isn't like, like whatever, I'm not a protester, you
know what I mean? Like, I don't I don't like
being in crowds of people at Disney World.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
So I'm not going to go in protest. That's on me.
Speaker 4 (34:59):
I get it, right, But I don't like what I saw,
which is the mental backflips that people.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Are doing online to where like they're like.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
Oh, these are fake, these are fake shots. They're showing
shots from two years ago with something different, and the
trees in October and Boston would be orange right now,
not green.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
And it's like, no, dude, there's a hundred million.
Speaker 4 (35:17):
Shots of this from different news sources.
Speaker 3 (35:20):
From Fox News. You can't claim everything is fake. That's
my thing.
Speaker 4 (35:23):
You can't just go around saying everything is fake or
I'm not gonna take you seriously as a person.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
And that's the hard part.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
I don't see that.
Speaker 6 (35:31):
Yeah, there's a lot of mental gymnastics from one side
are trying to I.
Speaker 4 (35:35):
Love a peaceful protest, and this seemed to go off well.
I saw the one shot of Chicago where they did
and then and then they picked.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
Up all the trash. I was like, that's awesome, Yeah,
do that.
Speaker 4 (35:44):
I'm all for anybody's right to peacefully protest, left or
right or whatever, but don't tell me something's fake when
I can see nine hundred angles it but no, that's.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
The thing, right, No matter if there's something out that
you don't like, you can just say it's fake and
it does make people question like that it.
Speaker 4 (36:00):
Does, And here comes the text. Look, you use footage
from twenty seventeen Boston. I don't know what you're talking about.
And I know they did because I saw TikTok, Twitter, MSNBC,
Fox News seeing.
Speaker 3 (36:09):
It that the thing did happen. You can't deny that
the thing didn't happen.
Speaker 6 (36:13):
No, he can, and that's what they want to do.
Just say it didn't happen, even though he's a bullfaced liar.
You're an idiot, and like Ryan's just finish saying it's
hard to take you seriously when we can't even come
together on what is facts. Again, across the board, even
your favorite two stations, whether it's Fox or whether it's
the other one, are coming out forward and saying, hey, yeah,
this did happen. This was a response. Even your favorite
(36:36):
network are saying, hey, we're not going to sign this
thing to cover the Pentagon because that's an attack on
freedom of a speech. Even your guy, your networks are
saying that. So for you to sit here and try
to text us and try to get bully us, and
to be like, oh, this didn't happen, shows what kind
of person or what kind of level of intelligence you have.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Well, not only did it, I mean we all know
what happened, but the president leaned into it and did
video himself with a crown on it.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
Well he's not okay, I'll give him that. He's not
making those he's sharing.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
It was him with a crown on in a jet
dropping doodoo on people who are on who are who
are protesting, so uh uh weird. You don't normally think
a president would do that or share that kind of
a thing, but that's where we're at these days.
Speaker 4 (37:21):
The guy is mildly funny. I'll give him that, because
he does these interviews. I saw one and he's like,
they had a no cakes protest. I was worried for
my job. I thought a king was coming to take it.
Thank you for letting me know being aware, and I'm
like sometimes I'm like, damn, dude, you're kind of fun.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
That was pretty funy. Yeah, I told you I liked
him on the Apprentice. Just so anyway, Yeah, no King's
Day Allegedly over seven million people uh protested I do
have to, like all those folks voted, I think that
would be maybe a different outcome, but well, you never know.
Speaker 4 (37:56):
Yeah, I mean those people all definitely did vote. It's
about grabbing people. I like when people tell me they
don't vote. As an American, who I think I've only
missed one election.
Speaker 6 (38:06):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (38:06):
It drives me insane And you're like, ah, it just
it doesn't matter. I'm not going to vote. So many
people if fought and died in the history of not
only this country, but just like the history of democracy
to be able to get a system of government that's
even sort of close to being representative of the people.
When you go it's not gonna do it, I want
to punch you in the face, like you could be
left right, just go vote, just do it.
Speaker 3 (38:28):
This is your got, your got, your government.
Speaker 4 (38:31):
Given right whatever, God given well, because it's given to
you by the people, right exactly. Yeah, so and it
can be taken away. Democracy is so fragile. So when
you tell me you don't want to partake in it,
I don't like you.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
All Right, We're gonna take a break when we come
back and sign for the King of Denmark Ryn Holmes
to make his daily proclamat King oh oh no King's Day.
Speaker 3 (38:50):
No kids, hey, also the regular guy of Denmark.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Today is also today is also uh it's a national
International swath day. So it's a big day for Ridal
and we'll do that when we come back. Don't go anywhere.
You're listening to the Manch of the Morning.
Okay, so, uh, in order to make sure we have
fresh corn dogs. Uh, the the corn dog wine pairing
will be the next segment. Wine Diva is getting everything
all set up and Russo's here our Wine Diva, and uh,
they're still making us some fresh corn dogs. So while
we're waiting for that, Yeah, we're gonna let Ryan bring
(00:30):
in the nerdy new Hell.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Yeah, there's a white wine we're gonna, We're gonna we're
gonna pair it with corn dogs.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Time to get nerdy. It's going out to Lume Burgess.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Come and take a buy the mask, TI get a
fight up because it's about time.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Toot on some kind of It's a work in progress,
but it's better than what you got.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Ryan, Bye bye, Melinda.
Speaker 4 (01:02):
Hello, nerdy news brought to you by that mortgage guy
Don from that mortgage guy Don dot com.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
But more on that later.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Well, if flying wasn't enough, nerd stuff counts with space stuff.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
That's where I'm going with this.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Uh, if flying wasn't worrisome enough for you already, between
the passengers and the and the technical issues and everything
that can go wrong and maybe your flights get delayed,
Well here's a new little thing for you to think
about what For the first time ever in history, Russ
a Boeing in flight at thirty eight thousand feet was hit.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Oh, it's all by space debris.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
What are the chances space debris would hit a plane
while it's flying in the air.
Speaker 5 (01:48):
It hit the front pass or the front cabin, right
in the window and it shattered the glass, which was
enough to spray glass onto the pilot, causing lacerations in
his arm.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
And they said, yeah, the odds of this rust.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Various scientists have tried to calculate this since this news
story broke.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
It's somewhere in the one in a billion range.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
One in a billion.
Speaker 6 (02:11):
Yeah, have you I mean, have you ever seen the
images of what low space looks like right outside of
the lower orbit?
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Yes, lower Earth orbit? Thank you? Have you ever seen
the images of that? I have not. It's a space junkyard,
it is.
Speaker 6 (02:24):
We've just we we have no idea how much junk
and old satellites and all this stuff that's out there.
I'm surprised that this doesn't happen even more.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
It's probably it's going to happen more.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
I thought it all burn up though.
Speaker 6 (02:41):
There's so much junk up there and rush that stuff
is going to make it through like this, look at that.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
I don't know when this articles from, but this article
from Box says there are three hundred thousand pieces of
garbage floating Earth and it's a big problem. It's a
big problem in a couple of different ways, because this
kind of stuff is going to happen more and more
the more we add garbage. I mean, we're launching satites
and stuff every other day at this point.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Oh there were, yeah, a couple this weekend.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
And then there's also the look at that, the very
real possibility that if we keep shooting stuff up into
space like this, that we will lock ourselves into our planet,
like we won't be able to ever go past low
Earth orbit because there's too much stuff in the way. No,
this is real, can get through the junk, Yeah, because
you have to just.
Speaker 6 (03:21):
Like humans, whatever it is, we're just going to follow
it all where it's the ocean, whether it's the Earth.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Now we've cluttered up space.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Yeah, and the thing about we are.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
The cancer on Earth.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
Yeah, you have to remember, like this stuff is traveling
at like one hundred and eighty thousand miles an hour,
So even just a tiny screw when they have to do.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Like the space shuttles, they have to prepare for like
a tiny screw.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
And I've seen it where they show what the whole
the impact like that would make. And these astronauts over time,
whether space walks and whatnot, not even just the satellites
where they know where the satellites are, but astronauts have
lost like a wrench or a screwdriver on the way.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Okay, question, I'm just curious that this is could be
I don't know, a future job, right, there's a future job.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Where you have space janitor.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
You're in a space ship and your job is as
a run around and to I don't know, use laser
beams to get rid of all the trash.
Speaker 6 (04:11):
Right, there's like there was a series on There was
a series on Netflix that that was the theory or
the like, there was the premise of it.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Yeah, I thought I thought of that this is a
couple of years ago.
Speaker 6 (04:21):
It was actually not a bad series at all to
get rid of space junk.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Now, Yeah, Space Space Janitor coming this fall at NBC.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Space Channel, and you just got to kind of yeah
that I think that'd be a cool job.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
I mean, we got to do something about it. It's
a real problem. Like I said, it's only getting worse
with the more star links and the Amazon's got theirs
going up now.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
So just be prepared.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
If you're looking out the window, if you're flying across
the Atlantic, you might see something fly through.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
How that was the plane going and the plane's going probably.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Around six an hour and for it to actually hit, yeah,
it's very like.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
The probability of it is so small, which is why
it's never happened before. I mean, you got thousands of
planes in the air right now and stuff is falling
all day long all over the planet. But it did happen,
and it looked pretty brutal. That I mean that that
is the ultimate act of God, right, like if your
plane goes down from a meteor or a because they don't.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Know space junk.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Yeah, they don't know if it's space junk or a meteor,
but definitely came from space.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Hit this plane right in the cockpit.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Angel, I don't want to be hit there.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
You not want to be hitting.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
The cockpit, worst place where some people pay good money
for it.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
Maybe, but a high heel falls from space and it's
just right in the anyway, Angel, is a gamer.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Angel.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
I heard you on the Colbert Show on Friday, and
you were you were, you were laying how much you
actually play Grand Theft Auto?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Yeah, and you said, are you judging me? No?
Speaker 3 (05:46):
No, no, no no.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
It was more than I realized though, because you said
somewhere between five to ten hours.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Oh, it's ten is on the low? Oh is it really? Okay?
Speaker 3 (05:55):
But Grand Theft.
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Auto five came out in twenty thirteen, making it a
twelve year old game at this point, and Grand Theft
Out of six is coming out next year.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Year.
Speaker 6 (06:05):
They're getting ready to make it impossible that you can
buy mansions.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
Okay, okay, now, Russ, how much do you think Grand
Theft Auto five since it's released in twenty thirteen?
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Him?
Speaker 4 (06:18):
And that's including that's the big sales of the game,
and their online sales as well, for like the live
service that they do.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
I know that it will astonish me. So I'm gonna
give a really wild, crazy, like over a billion dollars.
It's hilarious.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
It's a hilarious answer.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Angel.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
Do you know the answer to this?
Speaker 1 (06:35):
I don't know. I would say, let's say three billion.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Grand Theft Auto generated approximately eight point six to ten
billion in revenue since twenty thirteen.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
That's crazy.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
That is a lot of the moon Lah and Grand
Theft Out of six is slated to be the biggest
video game release of all time.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
And imagine if you were the guy that sat down
and wrote out, here's the running the I we'll make
a video game and basically it's going to be running
around and slapping hookers and shooting people and selling okay,
and the madness, the horrible, the most horrible things that
people can do. And that's gonna be the game. Yeah,
and that won't make any Money's ten billion dollars.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
One billion dollars at least, I said, I believe you
said the other day. The video game industry is worth
more than the movie industry, more than the music industry combined.
It's crazy how much money this stuff makes. But gamers
are mad. Gamers are mad because oh, it's going to
get ugly. Well because the who was it? It was
the developer of Saints Row, which is another video game
(07:35):
kind of similar to Grand Theft autom not as good.
Speaker 6 (07:37):
Gta's basically spawned off a whole generation or whole series
russ up these kind of violent gung toading gangster games.
Saints Row the initial one was probably one of the
closest ones Mafia. The initial one was probably a close
one as well.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Yeah, but the developer of Saints Row caused a bunch
of stir because he says the price of Granted Thought
six should be one hundred dollars. Yeah, for the game
right now, Like in theory it's slated to be around
sixty nine to ninety nine, but this guy developer wants
it to be one hundred dollars a game.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
The game is mad as hell about but they.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
All will pay the one hundred bucks. They'll pay it, Sure,
they'll pay it.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
But like you can't understand.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
He plays it like it's not like you just watch
it once. I mean it's hours and hours and hours.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Yeah, but one hundred dollars is a lot of money
either way.
Speaker 6 (08:27):
I'll tell you rust that the that would be at
that price point, you would not get it. Not that
I would not get it, No, no, no, yeah, I
want to see what they're what they're kind of doing
or like giving me for that, right, So I get it.
It's endless gameplay, sure, but one of the knocks that
they've had right now, with Grand Theft Auto five, they
(08:48):
really haven't brought anything to the table in the last
let's say, two or three years. Is that making it
that you have to play? The people that are playing it,
it's just because that's what they love, right, you know.
And so that for one hundred bucks, what are you
giving me? You know, tell me that you're making it
worth my value or work worth that investment.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah, and I didn't realize how much it was to
make the game. They're talking it was a billion dollars
in development right now.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
But if you're going to pull in.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
You know, eight to ten probably more, just with inflation
and everything. One hundred dollars, mostly on the online stuff.
One hundred dollars does seem too much. I hope I
don't start seeing more because they're going to set the
precedent that means there's gonna be more one hundred dollars
video games, and that prices a lot of people out,
like one hundred bucks to me, sure I wasted on
gambling all the time, right to like, but twenty year
old me couldn't afford one hundred dollars video game.
Speaker 6 (09:41):
That goes to that whole argument. Russa and we were talking.
We talked about it briefly. What a couple of weeks
ago when the guy from the CEO of Live Nation
it says like, hey, yeah, we're selling tickets too cheap.
We need to sell tickets at three hundred dollars to
go see me, to go to a concert. This is
that same mentality. Basically, you're you're ringing the hands of
your p one.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Eventually. Yeah, essentially, you know.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
It's hard for me because this means I'm gonna have
to buy a PlayStation five.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
I'm already on the hook.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
Because I have a Microsoft Xbox, but I have the
last gen Xbox and when the new one won't even
be able to run it. But I found out because
I was I was like, okay, let's go in, let's
cancel the subscription for Xbox. My Xbox account was hacked
by Russians. Hacked by Russians, straight up. I was able
to eventually get in. But a Russian has been using
my account because I haven't been on Xbox Live in
like several years, has been using my account, been having
(10:31):
a great time, really.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Raised my gamer score quite a bit.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
But there's all these messages going back and forth in
Russian that I need to get translated because I don't
I don't know. Apparently Microsoft got hacked a while back
and a lot of people's like Microsoft three sixty five
lives their passwords released out into the wild, so be
prepared for that as well.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
So looking forward to Grand Theft Auto six. But yeah,
I gotta buy. I gotta buy a ps PS five.
I've never been a PlayStation boy.
Speaker 6 (10:58):
I gotta connect for you if you need one. Okay,
someone that we know, one of their kids works at a.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Place, Okay, just so you know.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Okay, it's not a fell off a truck situation.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
No, No, that would be way better. Okay, but that's
not the situation, right.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Yeah, And I'm gonna need about two months off at
the beginning of twenty twenty six when this when this
game gets released, play.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
I'm gonna take it.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
I'm taking the month of May and June off just
to get through this.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
Yeah, we're gonna have to do it. We're gonna have
to do like a live from Rockstar City.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
And you've just heard the NERD brought to you by
that mortgage guy down from that mortgage guy done dot com.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
That is like, we're crazy, I know nothing about any
of those games. Yeah, I'm not a gamer.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
Well, when when City Scapes two three we gets released, right,
I'll be.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Sure to let you know because you do play that game.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
I did for a little while. Yeah, and I build
my own city and I could be the mayor.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
Well, if you want to be the mayor of a town,
you should live there first. And you can do that
with that mortgage guy down with that mortgage guide don
dot Com.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Traditional mortgage refin, he locks whatever.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
He demystifies the mortgage business on Saturdays from nine ten
thirty here on Real Radio.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
And so you've just heard the nerds. Shall be all
right when.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
We come back. Class meets corn dogs when we return.
I wanted to see if the Wine Diva could pair
wine with corn dogs, the trashiest thing I can think of,
And well we will do that when we return. Don't
go anywhere. You're listening to the mantras morn all right.
(12:33):
So this basically, Ryan, we just came out with this
because we wanted to get corn dogs one day and
I'm like, okay, well let's see if we can if
we can have the Wine Diva pair wine with corn dogs,
because there are some foods you compare and they taste good.
Some work and some and some don't. Now some and
(12:55):
how you doing wine? Diva? And and russo here?
Speaker 7 (12:57):
How are you great? Am I on?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
You are on?
Speaker 8 (12:59):
I am on?
Speaker 1 (13:00):
I figured something out as I was thinking about you,
right like she is to me a combination of of
Daisy and Amber. And what I mean is is that
that you've got. You've got a gimmick. You love wine
the way the way Amber always talks about wrestling. That
you you know you love wine. And then you also
have the gimmick where you always wear the same dress,
(13:21):
like or not the same dress, but the same type
of dress. Uh. So you got that gimmick.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
And then you were drinking wine as soon as we
got here, just like Daisy as always drinking tequila as
soon as she gets here. It's sort of you. You
kind of have all the then of a character.
Speaker 8 (13:39):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
And you are a little bit classy. And and and
when I asked you if you really normally would drink,
I mean, not drink but eat corn dogs.
Speaker 8 (13:48):
You're like, no, yeah, yeah, I am on right, just
okay here myself.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Well turn yourself up there right there to you?
Speaker 7 (13:55):
Where is it?
Speaker 1 (13:56):
There's a little button right there. Ry, I help her
out there, but you turn yourself up. I can hear you.
Speaker 7 (14:00):
Oh yeah, yeah, so I can hear it.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Thank you, You can hear yourself.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
Yeah. Okay.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
So so wine is your thing, and I gave you
the challenge what would what did we do last time?
What did we pair last time when you were in
kettle corn? Yeah, that's right, and and actually it paired
very well. It actually tastes the pretty good you know,
those two things hit. So when I gave you the
challenge of of corn dogs and Chef Ken is here.
(14:26):
Uh he made us fresh corn dogs today.
Speaker 8 (14:28):
They're gourmet rush, They're gourmet corn dogs. They're fancy corn dogs.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Gourmet corn dogs. What makes it? What makes some gourmet?
Speaker 9 (14:38):
They're not gourmet. They're just made in house.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
They're made in house. Okay.
Speaker 8 (14:42):
He's got a whole rash batter and like you know,
I mean, it's a whole thing.
Speaker 7 (14:47):
That's why I I was excited about.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
This, a tiny restaurant over there, like in the corner
of my heart. He's got like the friars going other stations,
I believe infiltrated and they're like, can you make can
you make us some corn dogs too.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Did you did you make some rememba? Good? Okay, all right,
it's fine, that's good. Uh so uh so, yeah, so
thank you for that. We've got fresh made corn dogs.
Bo Outlaw got his Now bo Outlaws said it needed
to be crunch. Here is what he said. I had
double fried it this time. Boss.
Speaker 9 (15:16):
He walked out and he said, hey, double fry that
he needs some crunch.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Okay, all right, so there you go. He was like,
the test dummy on it. That's good. Okay. So wine diva,
what is it? How are we doing this? How are we?
Speaker 8 (15:29):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Why did you bring and how are we pairing this
with corn dogs?
Speaker 9 (15:33):
So?
Speaker 8 (15:34):
Sanser is a French white wine. That's the blanc is
always going to be one hundred percent Savignyon blanc.
Speaker 7 (15:42):
Uh huh.
Speaker 8 (15:43):
If you have a red Sansa, it's going to be
all peinu noir. This is just under their French wine laws.
But we're in the Loire Valley.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (15:50):
Now, Savignon blanc is a very high acid grape and
this is unoaked and it actually the high sit in
the seven blanc cuts through the fat and grease of
the corn dog.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Ok So that's this is the first corn dog here
the closes. Now, if we're gonna pair it with wine,
should we do any dipping or no dipping into the wines?
Speaker 9 (16:14):
We actually have different We actually have different Go ahead, Yeah,
we have totally different batters on the corn dogs and sauceage.
So the first one is a pork brat worst and
it is a buffalo spiced batter. And then there's some
(16:34):
blue cheese dressing.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
And so should we dip it in the dressing to
go with the wine or not go for it? I'm asking.
I'm not asking you. I'm asking she is the one
that knows how it pairs with.
Speaker 8 (16:45):
Let's just try it with without the sauce.
Speaker 7 (16:49):
Try this.
Speaker 8 (16:49):
I like the fact that it's a little spicy because
Salon blanc is it'll it'll actually mute the spiciness.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
All right, take a bite, bite your corn dog.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Bite? Oh pretty good, pretty good? Cheers watching you need
a corn dog's funny now taste? Okay, it pairs pretty well,
we do you think, Ryan? It's just a cheesy way
for us to get corn dogs.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
Yeah, but okay, I didn't know you could like fancy
have a corn dog either?
Speaker 3 (17:24):
But yeah, the two flavors work very well together.
Speaker 8 (17:27):
Yeah, it almost like so Savignon blanc is such a
diverse great, uh huh. It's growing in several countries, but
it is originally from France and Unoa. There there's like
no residual sugar. It's high acid. That's why a lot
of times people do champagne with French fries.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
No joke. It really does pairwell together.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Yeah, it's delicious.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Okay, A good job.
Speaker 8 (17:52):
Yeah, And all these are on my Instagram under Rusa
Wine Companies.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
And if you want to order any of these four
for the Thanksgiving or anything like that, that's what you do.
Speaker 8 (18:00):
Yeah, you can go to Russowinecompany dot com. You can
go to my instagram Russo Wine Company. You can d
M me my phone numbers on there, text me, email
me to make place orders and then I delivered to
your home or office.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Okay, very nice. Okay, I can't remember us. You are
you aller? Blue cheese? Is are you? Uh? They said
I was supposed to be. Yes, this ranched too if
you need it.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Okay, I didn't mind a little blue cheese and then
had some wine. Didn't know those two.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Together, Angel, What do you think about the pairing of
corn dog and wine. It works. It does work, isn't
it weird? Yeah? Yeah? Okay, So what's the next one?
Is this the same kind of corn dog? No, no,
this is different.
Speaker 9 (18:39):
This is your traditional everyday fair park corn dog.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Okay, all right, and we're gonna pair this with the white.
Speaker 8 (18:46):
Wine or this one's going with red Okay, all right,
so we're y'all need to chug a lug.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Oh we only have one glass. Gotta chug it. Okay. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (18:56):
So so basically I did. I did a Red Blends.
There's a lot of affordable wines. This is also sustainably
farmed from Lodi, California, and it's called Ghost Runner and
it's cabernet, savignon and zinfandel and it's in toasted French oak.
Speaker 7 (19:19):
Barrels very night.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
It's like, I said, the same way that Ambernova only
talks wrestling, Like did you talk to you talked to
Andresso about anything? It's all wine, wine? Why wine? Little
little wine jokes too, Like what was the thing you
said the other about?
Speaker 8 (19:34):
Oh oh well, since we had we had a little delay.
Speaker 7 (19:37):
I said, everything happens for a reestling.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
So cheesy. But what she said, oh my God, she's Amberno,
but in the wine world, okay, and let me give
some of the angel Yes, we got to hook angel up. Okay,
all right, and while she's hooking Angel up, can thank
you for doing this? Welcome.
Speaker 9 (19:59):
Let's I also say that uh Ann and I have
been talking. I do a lot of pairing dinners, and
I've done one. I've done actually I think too maybe
for your for your for your foundation donated during the drives. Yeah,
and they've gone very well. And actually, let me tell you,
(20:21):
I actually went and did the life imaging and found
out that I have clogging in my widow maker and
had to get like the full on really ath and
check to make sure I had didn't need a stint.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Was it the corn dogs?
Speaker 1 (20:36):
It was the corn dogs.
Speaker 9 (20:38):
It was the corn dogs and the gummy bears.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
So you went and got the free heart scanning, found
out that you had got the free heart scan and
then there were so many of these stories that we
can't even keep track of them, but I'll use you
in the next commercial.
Speaker 9 (20:49):
But that was absolutely amazing.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Yeah, I'm glad you And then you might be doing
some stuff for my son's wedding coming up, which we
are definitely doing something which is very very cool. Yeah, okay,
why Diva is back and now we have red wine
once again. This was a crazy idea. I just wanted
corn dogs one day and I challenged wine Diva. I'm like,
I bet you can't pair you know, corn dogs with wine.
And the first one I would say was a hit.
(21:13):
What's the second one?
Speaker 8 (21:14):
So this, this is just a classic corn dog, and
so I just thought, well, why not just pair it
with a with a red blend?
Speaker 7 (21:21):
Uh huh Okay, So yeah, let's give it a shot.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Okay, here we go. A classic corn dog, very good
me can't beat that, right, and a red wine. It
makes it fancy. It's a mount door corn dog.
Speaker 7 (21:38):
That's delicious.
Speaker 8 (21:39):
Yeah yeah, because I mean, if you think about it,
the tannic structure of a red wine cuts through the
fat of like like you know, like the like the pork,
the beef, hot dog filet mignon a rib and that's
why people really like to pay high fatty meats with
(22:03):
with the red wine. So yeah, it actually it's it's
a good pairing for the classic corn dog because it
is mainly like beef.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
I do like all the wines that you've you've brought
in here, like I've been to other places and like
that one doesn't taste good, but the ones you've brought
in have been very very good.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
Straight dipping mine and see how.
Speaker 7 (22:24):
Dip it in the water.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Okay, that's that's tacky. That's as tacky as it could be.
Well some mayonnaise.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Yeah. Are they making wine sauce yet? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (22:40):
I mean there's there's white wine sauces.
Speaker 9 (22:42):
Like yeah, cooked with wine constantly as an alcoholic. People
are always like, how do you deal with cooking with alcohol?
Speaker 1 (22:52):
But when you cook with alcohol, it cooks, The cooks
the alcohol out still holding the bottle though, Yeah, but
you still have to. Yeah, And like you guys had that.
Speaker 9 (23:02):
Conversation at the six o'clock hour, like, yeah, man, when
it's when you're an alcoholic, you're an alcoholic, it's a
different story, right.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
So yeah, so so so Wine Diva, you did pretty well.
That was that was that was both of those. It
made it made it made the corn dog taste better
when you pair it with the wine.
Speaker 8 (23:22):
Yeah, yeah, I mean wine wine is designed, you know,
to compliment foods, and that's why there's different cultures and
like when you go to France or you go to Portugal.
You know, their local cuisine is designed for the wines
(23:42):
that they grow. So yeah, but I mean at the
end of the day, it's all about what you like
and what you enjoy. And you know, I sell thousands
of wines like all over the world.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
So what's the fancy word for what you are? Do
they teach your like oky, the this is what pairs
with this? Like is that part of the Yes?
Speaker 4 (24:03):
So as long have you been here from Africa?
Speaker 7 (24:08):
That's not me, You're You're precious. So no, I I've
been studying.
Speaker 8 (24:18):
I started studying with the Court and Master Somalia, and
then I switched to Wine Spirit Education Trust and I
study with the local Slate Wine Academy and it's an
amazing program. And yes, they do teach you about wine
and food pairing.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
You've had wines you don't like, right, You've had wines
like oh that's terrible.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
Yeah, I mean I don't.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
I only sell wines that I enjoy, and you know
it's a representation of my education and my and my
passion for wine. So it's like, I I don't want
to sell crappy.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Wines, any bad one. Yeah, what's the threat. You have
a third bottle here? What's third bottle?
Speaker 8 (24:59):
So our third bottle is going to be a twenty
year old age tawny port.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
So okay, when it's twenty years old, it's supposed to
be better.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
Is that the so?
Speaker 8 (25:09):
So ports can age really well, it's a fortified wine,
and you you can have ten twenty thirty, you know,
forty year old age ports. But this one in particular
I really enjoyed because the producer was one of the
all right, I got a cheat and look at this
(25:31):
a little bit. Okay, So Walter Maynard, it's Maynard's age
port dates back to sixteen fifty two. So he was
one of the original British wine.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
Merchants and his family just kept going.
Speaker 7 (25:47):
To the family.
Speaker 8 (25:48):
It's and there's a long tradition within this this porthouse.
But yeah, the porthouses are basically run mainly by British families.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
At this point was port Let's give it a shot
like champagne or like it comes from a region in Portugal,
but other places produce it, do they have to not
call it port wine?
Speaker 8 (26:10):
Well, so like traditionally Portuguese wine law protected port should
come from Portugal only. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, there's
like Porto. Porto is a city, but they have their
own grapes in Portugal.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Oh I thought it was like a port, like a
like a a ship pulls into a port. For the
longest time, I didn't know it was Portugal.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
This is what people in ports drink when they work
the dock.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Yeah. Wine.
Speaker 8 (26:44):
So actually the history is that Portugal and the UK
have a like England. They have a really good relationship
for years, and they would fortify the wine so that
it could sit on the ships while it doesn't go bad.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
I got you.
Speaker 8 (27:01):
So it makes it kind of yeah, it makes it
age worthy. It can withstand like the rust seas and
and just kind of let's.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Port real quick if you've gotta go a break here
in a second. So so yeah, down, down, your down,
your wine and we'll go to the port wine and
give it a shot. This this was gonna be paired
with the dessert.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
So you're gonna I guess did you.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Bring a dessert? Chocolate egg rolls? Bro oh wow, chocolate
egg rolls. I'll take another corn dog. You can have
another car.
Speaker 7 (27:35):
I mean you can pair it with the corn dog.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Yeah, yeah, all right, So Ryan gets your get you
he said, he's good, Yeah, he's good. Yeah, all right,
this is the this is the port let's try that it.
It smells different. It doesn't smell like wine. Why is that?
And russo?
Speaker 7 (27:55):
Okay? So well, first of all, it's fourtified with a.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
Grape speed it.
Speaker 7 (28:01):
It's fortified means.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
I know what that means. But tell the audience that
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (28:06):
In the fermentation process, they add this high alcohol grape
spirit or brandy and it stops the fermentation, which maintains
the residual sugar in the grape. But then it increases
the alcohol by volume. And this is aged in big
(28:27):
casks and they they call it twenty year because the
average age of all this wine juice in these casks
is an average aging of twenty years.
Speaker 7 (28:38):
Oh wow, Now you've got to keep in mind.
Speaker 8 (28:40):
And Portugal they've got their own grape, so like to
Regan Nationale is like the big number one, like big
grape trigger Nationale. This is these aren't grapes that are
just indigenous to port Portugal.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
That's really good and it makes a little bit of
brandy and the conversation turns everybody on.
Speaker 9 (28:58):
Me. You can't talk about wine like that without just
getting excited.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
That's just you sound so excited, Chef. I'm very excited,
he said that. With so much exciting I do.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
And I tell my wife to dirty talk. I'm just like,
tell me about the history of port One.
Speaker 8 (29:14):
Yes, I mean, I mean that's actually like my life goal.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
So, and people want to get a hold of you,
and they want to get any of these wines or
or they need one. They need you to come and
do it white taste or whatever.

Thank you very much. Okay, so news in the headlines
is making all the all the news this morning. It's
all everywhere.
Speaker 3 (33:25):
And you guys know I hate to talk about politics. No, no,
but no.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
Saturday was the no Kings Day protests over seven may
thank you all fake And here's my thing, like did
all those people vote? Like, like, if you voted, okay,
but if you didn't vote and you showed up at
that thing, you're shooting yourself in the foot. It's like,
it's like, what, what's the point? What are you saying?
My point is don't protest? Now, you can protest, but
it's like if you didn't, if you didn't vote in
(33:51):
your protesting, you should have been out there voting instead
of there's no way to know that. Well, there is
no way to know that. But that's all I was thinking,
was like, I wonder if all these people voting, because
you're sitting there now, you're taking time to go protest
as opposed to did you vote when it was time
to vote?
Speaker 6 (34:05):
Or as opposed to what an awesome response? Seven million
people came out and protested and there's no violence, no issues.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Everything went well, there's that one guy.
Speaker 6 (34:13):
Yeah, though, one thing that you're worried about is that
that everybody voted.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
Yes, I was thinking about that. I'll be honest with you.
I'm talking about did you all you all you seven million,
were you out there voting when you were supposed to,
because if you didn't, you were lazy, And now you're
out there protesting, and.
Speaker 6 (34:26):
Uh, it's pretty safe to assume that they all voted,
you think, so, yeah.
Speaker 4 (34:30):
Yeah, if you're willing to go out and protest in
the middle of the day on a Sunday when it's
football Sunday, you probably voted.
Speaker 6 (34:36):
It's typically the people that get out in protests are
the ones that are active voting and went out.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
They had they had a really good, uh, really good
show up. I guess in Seminole County. There was thousands
of people that showed up all this county as well.
Downtown Orlando was popping. Yeah, that we had a bunch
of really good protests.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
I isn't like, like whatever, I'm not a protester, you
know what I mean? Like, I don't I don't like
being in crowds of people at Disney World.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
So I'm not going to go in protest. That's on me.
Speaker 4 (34:59):
I get it, right, But I don't like what I saw,
which is the mental backflips that people.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Are doing online to where like they're like.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
Oh, these are fake, these are fake shots. They're showing
shots from two years ago with something different, and the
trees in October and Boston would be orange right now,
not green.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
And it's like, no, dude, there's a hundred million.
Speaker 4 (35:17):
Shots of this from different news sources.
Speaker 3 (35:20):
From Fox News. You can't claim everything is fake. That's
my thing.
Speaker 4 (35:23):
You can't just go around saying everything is fake or
I'm not gonna take you seriously as a person.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
And that's the hard part.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
I don't see that.
Speaker 6 (35:31):
Yeah, there's a lot of mental gymnastics from one side
are trying to I.
Speaker 4 (35:35):
Love a peaceful protest, and this seemed to go off well.
I saw the one shot of Chicago where they did
and then and then they picked.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
Up all the trash. I was like, that's awesome, Yeah,
do that.
Speaker 4 (35:44):
I'm all for anybody's right to peacefully protest, left or
right or whatever, but don't tell me something's fake when
I can see nine hundred angles it but no, that's.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
The thing, right, No matter if there's something out that
you don't like, you can just say it's fake and
it does make people question like that it.
Speaker 4 (36:00):
Does, And here comes the text. Look, you use footage
from twenty seventeen Boston. I don't know what you're talking about.
And I know they did because I saw TikTok, Twitter, MSNBC,
Fox News seeing.
Speaker 3 (36:09):
It that the thing did happen. You can't deny that
the thing didn't happen.
Speaker 6 (36:13):
No, he can, and that's what they want to do.
Just say it didn't happen, even though he's a bullfaced liar.
You're an idiot, and like Ryan's just finish saying it's
hard to take you seriously when we can't even come
together on what is facts. Again, across the board, even
your favorite two stations, whether it's Fox or whether it's
the other one, are coming out forward and saying, hey, yeah,
this did happen. This was a response. Even your favorite
(36:36):
network are saying, hey, we're not going to sign this
thing to cover the Pentagon because that's an attack on
freedom of a speech. Even your guy, your networks are
saying that. So for you to sit here and try
to text us and try to get bully us, and
to be like, oh, this didn't happen, shows what kind
of person or what kind of level of intelligence you have.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Well, not only did it, I mean we all know
what happened, but the president leaned into it and did
video himself with a crown on it.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
Well he's not okay, I'll give him that. He's not
making those he's sharing.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
It was him with a crown on in a jet
dropping doodoo on people who are on who are who
are protesting, so uh uh weird. You don't normally think
a president would do that or share that kind of
a thing, but that's where we're at these days.
Speaker 4 (37:21):
The guy is mildly funny. I'll give him that, because
he does these interviews. I saw one and he's like,
they had a no cakes protest. I was worried for
my job. I thought a king was coming to take it.
Thank you for letting me know being aware, and I'm
like sometimes I'm like, damn, dude, you're kind of fun.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
That was pretty funy. Yeah, I told you I liked
him on the Apprentice. Just so anyway, Yeah, no King's
Day Allegedly over seven million people uh protested I do
have to, like all those folks voted, I think that
would be maybe a different outcome, but well, you never know.
Speaker 4 (37:56):
Yeah, I mean those people all definitely did vote. It's
about grabbing people. I like when people tell me they
don't vote. As an American, who I think I've only
missed one election.
Speaker 6 (38:06):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (38:06):
It drives me insane And you're like, ah, it just
it doesn't matter. I'm not going to vote. So many
people if fought and died in the history of not
only this country, but just like the history of democracy
to be able to get a system of government that's
even sort of close to being representative of the people.
When you go it's not gonna do it, I want
to punch you in the face, like you could be
left right, just go vote, just do it.
Speaker 3 (38:28):
This is your got, your got, your government.
Speaker 4 (38:31):
Given right whatever, God given well, because it's given to
you by the people, right exactly. Yeah, so and it
can be taken away. Democracy is so fragile. So when
you tell me you don't want to partake in it,
I don't like you.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
All Right, We're gonna take a break when we come
back and sign for the King of Denmark Ryn Holmes
to make his daily proclamat King oh oh no King's Day.
Speaker 3 (38:50):
No kids, hey, also the regular guy of Denmark.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Today is also today is also uh it's a national
International swath day. So it's a big day for Ridal
and we'll do that when we come back. Don't go anywhere.
You're listening to the Manch of the Morning.
