Speaker 1 (00:01):
The all new All Afternoon book Striker podcast. All Right,
Booker and Striker. Here we go on a Friday, an
alt ninety age seven Striker. How are you?
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Thanks for asking. I'm doing well. It's beautiful outside, it's
a Friday. We got some good giveaways. Good to see
you and our producer DJ Regulate, how are you.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
I was thinking about us on the way up the
hill as I was driving up Barm, and I was thinking,
it's a miracle or miraculous or something that we could
come in here every day be in a good mood.
It's not a great show, but we put on a
show every single day. We give it our best and
we have fun with people listening. It's miraculous.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Now is it miraculous because you drove on Barm today?
What I'm trying to find the correlation between driving on
Barm and the miraculous show?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
I would just telling you where the thought hit me,
and it's on the same path that you take in
every day. So maybe because I took your path in today,
I yes, I share some of you or whatever you're in.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
You know, there's something. There's some magic on Barm going
four miles per hour close to universal studios close to
the Warner Brothers life.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
There's an intersection at Lake Hollywood that they should bomb immediately.
If I was in charge, if I was the new
Pete Boodha Jedge or whatever that guy's name was, I
would be the guy to bombit for sure. Let's get
the light to fix this.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Listen, there's a liquor store there. There is, and there's
very very friendly in that in that spot there. And
also if you turn on Lake Hollywood, there's a night.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Now.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I'm not gonna give all the secrets away, but there's
a nice hike near there.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
There's a nice hike.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I went on a it never mind, it doesn't matter.
I'm not going to get to I went on a
date there started at all. Bookie Booker, what, I'm glad
you're here right. Let's brought a miraculously good show today,
horror show a show probably that's a Booker, Striker, Booker
and Striker n seven.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Our names are Booker, that's me, that's Striker. It is
all ninety eight seven our morning shows, the Woody Show.
And they're having an after hours takeover of Disney California
Adventure Park. We have five tickets in and we'll give
you those in about twenty minutes. But first it is
striker with everything happening in the world.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Just read this. Gene Hackman died a full week after
his wife Betsy, and lived in the house with her
body in the bathroom. He died. They're saying of heart
disease and Alzheimer's was a contributing factor. And they're like,
he may have just have been so confused and so
old that he didn't really understand what was going on. Well,
(02:24):
how did Betsy die a terrible a disease called hantavirus?
And that is a story that is everywhere right now.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Was her death sudden? Are they saying that it's not
like did they know it was coming? I guess it's
a bet.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
I don't know how it works. I don't think you
can beat this haunt of virus. I haven't done too
much of a deep dive on it. Well that's why
we're here. I knew I should have done some sort
of Wikipedia on hantavirus and had fifteen bullet points for you.
But yeah, just a sad story overall to know that
(03:03):
Gene Hackman, first he loses his wife, but it was
he was in such a place physically and mentally that
he didn't call anybody or let anybody know, and he
was it was like seven eight days and then he
passed away. After that, Wow, I'm got a segue to
a lighter luck. A couple of things that we've talked
about over the last couple of days. I just want
(03:23):
to bring it up again because it makes me happy.
Happy Gilmore Too Drops on July twenty fifth on Netflix,
makes us happy, and I wanted to do a deep
dive on that. Not the Haunt of virus, but who's
in Happy Gilmore Too Bad? Bunny Eminem, Travis Kelce, Rory McElroy,
Your favorite golfer is making an appearance. Who's your favorite
modern golfer?
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Tiger Woods?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
No, modern modern Scott, Yeah, he's in the movie. Then
he got Christopher McDonald of course, and Julie Bowen and
then our man, the Sandman Adam Sandler, July twenty fifth
on Netflix.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Huh, I read a today.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I did a lot of reading today that about ten
companies control most of the egg sales in our country.
One of them has made a billion dollars. And this
report that I was reading from Food and Water Watch,
they're saying the bird flow outbreak for sure has had
an effect on egg prices, but they really are attributing
(04:22):
it to greed, corporate greed playing a major role the
egg cut right exactly. But the a billion dollars one
of the companies is made from this god and prices
have just about doubled over the last six, seven, eight
weeks for eggs.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
But let's all vote for corporate interest because they'll take
care of us.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
You know. I'm going to continue the egg theme. Congratulations
to Jackie and Shadow. They're the bald eagles in Big
Bear up there in that tree three eaglitz yep are
now well, we know they're sound. Hopefully they're safe in there,
and I believe Jackie and Shadow take turns protecting them.
Jackie go fly around for a little. Oh let me
(05:02):
come back, Shadow, you go fly.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I was watching and I really went in on this.
I was watching these two like they kind of fight
over the time of who, you know, gets to sit
on the eggs. Of course, now they've hatched, they don't
have to worry about that so much now. But uh,
it's such a warming feeling just watching this story, and
I can't help but think about the little iglitz. At
the moment that they come out, it's like snowing and
(05:26):
cold and crap snow. Are they like, what is this crap?
Like we were in this nice warm eg Is this
what the world is? No? No, no, no, guys, this
is southern California. It's gonna be beautiful. Suit Like they
have no idea what's about to hit them?
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Ring? But hold on f the weather. Can you imagine
what it's like when they know that they can fly.
They're sitting there, but I can't move out of this nest.
I got wood sticking into my stomach. I got a
heavy ass bird on top of me. Wait till they
can really.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Use those wings?
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Man? And how come there's no We should have a
ton of care in nests all around the world. I
would love to be able to every now and then, hey,
what are these birds up to? And whatever nest it is?
Don't forget to set your clocks forward an hour officially
would be Sunday at two am. When you do that.
Clippers Knicks tonight, go Lakers, last night overtime win versus
(06:16):
the Knicks. Tomorrow, LAFC is playing in Seattle and Lakers
Celtics tomorrow Lakers Celtics tomorrow. I'm striker. That's all I
come alt afternoons with Booker and Striker, Oh ninety eight seven.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Booker and Striker on A ninety eight seven.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
It's all a shirt of theirs in Target. You should
wear it.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
You did.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
We're gonna give you a five pack of tickets for
California Adventure for the Woody Show. Takeover your chance to
win before three forty two.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
My best friend is in town. Shout out Dave, and
I think he got me today because we've got a
two for today. We had lunch and then we're gonna
have dinner. But the lunch was just us, and dinner
will be with some friends. But he insisted on paying
for lunch, which that you right. He rolls his eyes.
Striker rolls his eyes.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
It's the oldest trick in the book. Lunch is fifty
percent less expensive. There's probably a lemonade or a nice
tea involved. There's not a vodka soda or two or three,
or an end of dinner shot. Because it's a Friday night.
This guy just played you like a fiddle. Dave could
move book, so now I did.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Yes, I'm telling you, I even thought of it striker,
I was like, I did you thought of it? In
the thought of it, I mean I had my hand
in my pocket, gripped around my credit card, ready for
the person to come over, and that person just laid
it out like a blackjack dealer, very quickly on ut
but laid it right in front of him. And he's like,
I you know, it was like slow motion, like I
(07:41):
got that thing out. He had it right in front.
He goes, oh, no, no, no, dude, I haven't seen
you forever got this one.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Okay, so maybe that's going to carry over to the
dinner as well, and you should say, hey, you got
this tonight as well, since it's been forever.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
I don't think it works that way.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
It could work, It could work. I wouldn't do it,
but no, I can't start doing it. Okay.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
He got me though. I'm so screwed.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
You got played. Damn it.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
It's Booker and Striker.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Booker and Striker, all right, take me out and you're.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Going out tonight. Get set on your way home from
work on Friday afternoon. Thank you for punching into Booker
and Striker. A little gift for you five tickets to
the Woody Show after hours take over the Woody Show
was so nice to give us these to give to
you every hour of our show, a five pack of tickets.
Your chance to win is coming up. But first it
is Striker with everything happening in the world.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Today is happy employee appreciation? What which means your company
should be celebrating you right now. Maybe it's like, guys,
we're gonna buy you a pizza, Hamburger, here's a gift,
here's something we'll walk in. Has your company done that
for you today? Nope, because they're saying you're lucky to
have a job. Do it well, or else you'll be
(08:52):
out of here.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Anyway, company checking in, We're still waiting.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Doors open, wide open. There's a contemporary artist Japanese artist
very well known named Takashi Murakami, and he is partnered
with Major League Baseball to release a collection of merchandise
for the Los Angeles Dodgers, celebrating the Dodgers when they
(09:20):
visit Tokyo to open up the Major League Baseball season
this year. This artist is cool as can be. I'm
just starting to learn of him. The Dodgers, the jersey
designs and everything are so cool. There's actually a pop
up in LA going on and it's fairly crowded there.
It's complex La. It's on Fairfax. Everybody knows Fairfax. But
a shout out to this artist again, super famous and
(09:43):
to partner with MLB and the Dodgers. I love how
these jerseys look.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Man. Sounds like a home run to me.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Very well done.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
But thank you, thank you. I'll be here all day.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
There's a couple movies, classic ones that are going to
be re released in theaters. One of them is in
my top five favorite movies of all time. The other one,
it's Fine Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Fine. I
know some of you love that one. It's fine. It'll
be in theater celebrating fifty years May fourth and seventh.
But now let's go to Jaws. Jaws turns fifty this year.
(10:18):
It's gonna be re released in theaters August twenty ninth
to celebrate. I love this movie. Directed by Steven Spielberg.
Y'all know me, Jannahiner Livin. I'll catch that Berg for you,
but it ain't gonna be easy.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Never saw it?
Speaker 2 (10:33):
How have you never seen Jaws?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
No Desire? Fish in the Water.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
It was nominated for Best Picture.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
I guess people are in the water and the fish
is also in the water with them and haunts the people,
chastises the people, and maybe even eats a few people.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
It's one of the best directed movies you're ever gonna see.
You really don't see the shark until many minutes into
the movie. Again nominated for Best Picture, It was No.
Number One at the box office for fourteen weeks in
a row. Wo a young, young, young Steven Spielberg. I
think it was his second movie. He was way over budget.
People were like, what the hell are we doing with
(11:11):
this kid directing. The movie is based on a novel
that did really well. I love the movie Jaws. If
you haven't seen it, you may not want to go
into the ocean after. It's that good and that terrifying.
I absolutely love it.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Two.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Speaking of jerseys, two NBA jerseys are going up for
sale and could go for a combined twenty million dollars.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Jeez.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
These are the two jerseys Michael Jordan's first ever jersey
that he wore in a preseason game nineteen eighty four
in its autograph Wow jersey number two, the late great
Kobe Bryant's first ever regular season Lakers jersey when he
made his debut in nineteen ninety seven.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
They get a hold of that.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
I don't know how people get hold of these things.
The most expensive jersey ever sold was a Michael Jordan
jersey from the Last Dance. That's nineteen ninety eight. Ten
point one million dollars for a jersey. Yeah, that was
a Jordan jersey. So these are gonna go for a
lot of the month.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
I just put one up in my house, put it
in a frame, and just lie. That's from a game
number four of Michael Jordan's career.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
I'll scribble Michael Jordan's scribble number twenty three. Goat put
goat on it. Really, Michael wrote goat Yeah weird.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
He knew all the way back then he was the best.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Clippers. Nixt tonight, Clippers are favored by seven and.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
X are going to be tired after last night.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Absolutely, good job to the Lakers. Nay tomorrow, Lakers Celtics. Also,
LAFC plays tomorrow in Seattle. I'm striker. That's all I
got all to afternoons with Booker and Striker.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
All right, Booker and Striker. It is ninety eight seven
on this Friday.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
It's National serial Day. You know, every single day it's
National tequila Day, it's bread day, Today's cereal day. Okay,
So I guess they want us to appreciate the cereal.
I love cereal. I think Booker does it as well.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Nah, you used to well, are you off it? Well,
I haven't had cereal. I'm trying to think the last
time I had a bowl of cereal.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Yeah, I don't know when the last time I had one?
Okay was either, But I use at one point in
life I really enjoyed it.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Kids, we always had it. You brought up a memory
the other day about like the back of the cereal
box and things were happening on it. We'd read it
and stops about that. I forgot all about it.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
And then you could cut out the back and the
prize was inside. You would stick your dirty hand in
the cereal. We would get it from the bottom. But
some of the cereal boxes will put it outside of
the plastic inside the box.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Oh, I don't recall that. I do remember fishing through
the box with dirty hands, you know, just looking for
whatever two switch plastic, plastic whatever that you'd choke on
later on in life. I'm sure your dog died because
it ate it or whatever. Yeah, I remember those, but
now I can't remember the last time I had a
bowl of cereal. To be honest with you, maybe like
on vacation or something like if there was like a
(13:57):
buffet and you're like, oh, I'll have some right great
nuts or something. Whatever's laid out their cheerios.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
Well you your fruit loops and count shocula person.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Yes, as a kid, I love me some Count Chocula.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
As a kid, I like frosted flakes and cheerio.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Do you think they still hold up like the flavors
that we liked as a kid. Do you think we
would be into it as much? Because I got a
sneaky suspicion that says, no, you wouldn't. Yeah, I think
I would think Count Chocula is disgusting.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
No, I think you would like Count Shocula for five
minutes and then you would have enough and you would
drink the milk because the milk ends up decent after
a Count Shocula or cocoa puff serving.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Let me tell you why push back on this As
an adult, I look at cereal now for what it is.
It's disgusting. It's big balls of sugar, okay, and then furthermore,
on top of that, when you're looking at the big
balls of sugar, then you look at count chocula. I
don't even know what styrofoam the damn supposed marshmallow was
(14:55):
made out of. It was a rock in a box,
So you know what I mean, Like I in my mind,
I don't think I would let myself enjoy it. I
don't think i'd even look at it like a piece
of candy. I would just be utterly disgusted.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
But at some point in our life, we were told
cereals good for you, right because and it would be
on the box there's five minerals here, and there's real
apples and the apple jacks, right, and everyone, the adults,
yeah right, this is good for you before you go
to school. Straight out.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
They'd make us before we you know, if we're gonna
go to school, we'd run out the door. We didn't
need to be fed when we were kids. We just left,
you know, just left.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
How did we make it through the day?
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Right now, chain us to the kitchen table and be
like eat something, and it'd be like, all right, whatever,
I'll just take this box of sugar and I'll just
eat this before I.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Go to school. I did enjoy, and do enjoy, I
mean I haven't had God, it sounds like I'm not
someone that enjoys sweets, because I do. I just been
a while since I've really just gotten eaten. I mean
a candy bar every now and then or whatever. But
the cereal, when the milk is really cold and it's
your favorite cereal and you haven't had it in a while,
(16:01):
the first few bites are very good. Yeah, okay, let's
just go quickly here.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
What's your favorite adult cereal?
Speaker 2 (16:08):
But what is? What do you mean?
Speaker 1 (16:10):
I mean not count chocola that is care about count
talk you like. I liked it as a kid, but
like now, I'll be honest with you. I like granola
like a big.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Not good for you though, don't care it's terrible for you.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
I like DJ regularly.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Think I know a booker means I have a perfect
example of an adult cereal. Okay, honey, bunches of boats,
I get it right, It sounds adult, But those are
terrible for you.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Gotta be they gotta be like just sugar. I think, yeah,
they all are, But are they all?
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Are they? I mean, we're sitting here as radio host, who,
by the way, not in great shape.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
None of us speak for yourself.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
So the top five cereals are easily, in no particular order,
fruity pebbles, crunch berries, cocoa puffs.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Your list sucks already.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Frosted flakes, and lucky charms top five.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
I know, just five, maybe Lucky Charms on my list,
But I mean these other cereals. What about captain crunch.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
That's well, yes, captain crunch. The cookie ruins your tongue
in the roof of your mouth.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Okay, but captain crunch is like a derivative of peanut butter.
You don't like peanut butter, but you like captain crunch.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Well, no, there's three different kinds. Oh, there are the
Captain and I go way back. I'm a crunch brother
of Captain Crunch. So there were, and I can't think
of the exact name. There was a peanut butter crunch,
then there's the crunch berries with the berries, and then
the regular flavored Captain crunch. DJ regulated am I on
the right track with all this? Thank you?
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Yeah? The only captain I like now is an adult
is Captain Morgan. That's about it.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
Yeah, that's a good captain.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
What's your favorite cereal? Two two nine.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Booker and Striker Booker and Striker.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
On National Cereal Day, I was thinking about the seal
that I hated the most as a kid, like it
just kind of popped into my mind. Do you remember
grape nuts?
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yeah? There were no grapes in the cereal right.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
They just sucked. It was like crappy pieces of bran
or something. I forget who tried to slip me a
grape nut once, but I was like, these blow? What
are the good ones that our audience likes? Two two
nine eight.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
There is one cereal getting more mentions than any other cereal.
I'll tell you who it is in a second, but
I want to start with this one. And we didn't
mention this from the seven to four guys. Did anyone
else's mom let them put two heaping spoonfuls of sugar
into their plain rice, Crispy cereal and milk? Yep, yes,
how wild two scoops threw it right in the u
(18:42):
in the Rices cereal.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Like all these sugary cereals, they required more sugar bias.
I feel like frosted flakes. Was it frosted flakes should
put sugar on.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
No regular corn flakes you would do it.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Oh, corn flakes, Yes, frosted flakes wouldn't. Yeah, they're already
frosted because it had that glaze on it. That right,
that coat of paint or paste or whatever's on that crap.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Guys, Coco Pebbles, Tony the Tiger, and Tricks. Those are
my childhood go toos. Right there, tricks were kind of laying.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
I thought, I like.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
A trick every now and then.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Yeah, that's a different sort of trick.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Booker and Striker. I have a bowl of cereal almost
every night as a dessert, and lately it's been fruit
loops for lucky charms. Wow, guys, in no particular order,
here are my favorite cereals. Applejack's frosted Flakes, Chocolate frosted Flakes,
Honey Bunches of Oats, and corn pops Jason streaming in
Hawaii right now. Then we go to Tania, guys, Cinnamon
toast crunch because I love the taste of the milk
(19:34):
after the cereal is never like well, uh CTC is
getting more love on the text line than any other
cereal right now, Cinnamon toast Crunch, But then Carolyn and
Costa Mesa. She's a Raisin Brand girl.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I love Raisin Brand.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Loved it. Seven and four. You didn't put your name.
Honey smacks very underrated. I believe the frog or the
bear was the mascot of the honey smacks. Yeah, cinnamon
toast was.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
The honey cut. Was there honeycombs?
Speaker 2 (20:00):
There was a honeycomb and a yellow box.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, I remember that too.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
I was almost in a honeycomb commercial when I was twelve.
They were filming it at the park where I was
playing basketball. But I whatever, I didn't end up in it,
but I remember they were filming it, right, I almost
ended up in it. Coco Pebbles, Captain Crunch, Waffle Crisps,
and him in toast, Crunch Booker and Striker. You guys
are crazy. I love my cocoa pebbles. I'm forty years old.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
By the way, was it frosted many wheats that had
the coating on one side and like the wheat on
the other side. I only liked the coating side with
the sugar on the top. Those were good.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Seven one four guys frosted many wheats as a child
and an adult. Love me some fiber. Now that is
the best cereal to have milk make it soggy. That's
the number one.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
You couldn't eat that. That was like one of those
you had to wait to eat it because you'd dunk
that thing. You get your spoon and you would you'd
hold it down like you were drowning the damn thing
and you'd hold it there for a minute to it
was completely milked out. But you only really liked that
hop sugar coating on the top because if you ended
up with the bottom byte first, that sucks.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
The expansion of the cereal. Once it hits your stomach,
you get all this like foam right inside going down
your Trachi three year intestine. Then it just inside.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
What a kids eat for breakfast? Now? Did they still
eat cereal? Are you know things that are better for them?
I mean, it's got to be cereal. There's an entire
aisle at the grocery name any grocery store, there's an
entire aisle dedicated to cereal. And then tire.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
Beautiful looking aile. It's clean, the boxes have great colors
on them. And how about this. The mascots for these
cereals have been around for one hundred years. Who can
say someone was hit a boardroom? Right A rabbit? Silly
rabbit tricks are for kids. Then you got the Leprechaun
for lucky Charms. Now it's amazing like that. And the
design of the cereal boxes is an A plus. I mean,
(21:56):
we have shirts Booker and Striker. We got a good
logo that'll be around another six months once our contracts
are up.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
Woody Show After Hours takeover a five package ticket. We're
gonna give you a chance to win them right after
this song. If you're listening on the iHeartRadio app, get
the dialing eight hundred and seven eighty two seven nine
eighty seven.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Booker and Striker.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
The electric feel of the weekend. You got Booker and
Striker on this Friday. It is all ninety eight seven
more commercial freemore tickets to the Woody Show takeover of
Disney California Adventure Park. Five of those are coming up.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
What did you think about Lebron James during the game
finding Steven A Smith from ESPN, who is a very
well known sports broadcaster and host opinionated show, A plus
lister when it comes to that and what it seems
like he told Stephen A. Smith is quit talking about
my son on your show, right, And it was during
(22:51):
the game.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
That's RW.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Lebron's son, Bronnie is a professional basketball player drafted by
the Lakers. He's not like a fourteen year old in
junior high school.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Right.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Steven A. Smith said that Lebron was talking to him
not as an LA Laker, but as a father.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Yeah, he led with that, which shows you how smart
Stephen A. Smith is because that's a solid line right there.
It's a good point. I mean, look, he's a commentator
on sports and a guy that probably shouldn't be in
the league. He's an EPO baby. I mean, that's it.
He's not good enough.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
To guy front of the line pass.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
He got in front of the line pass. And that's fine.
It happens in the world, and it's cool, and I think.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
It happened in the plumbing business. You know, something wherever.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
You happen anywhere. But if you're if you're someone that
does commentary on a basketball team and how the basketball
players play when they're not that good or not good
enough for whatever, that's part of the job. I mean,
if someone says we suck on the radio, they're right.
Number one. Number two we have to take it, you
(23:59):
know what I mean. Like it's all subjective, you know
what I mean. Like, and maybe basketball isn't so much
because there's points, you know, there's an.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
A shooting and how many assists you get a game
or if you play defense.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Right, So I don't know. I just think it's kind
of weak that you know, you got it his son.
You really put the kid in a bad situation.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
That is the biggest point for me, because the kid
is just trying to improve as a basketball player, playing
in the G League. Every now and then he gets
to sit on the bench with the Lakers. His dad
forced the Lakers into drafting his son because it's a
good story and Lebron has that kind of powers. He's
one of the top three players of all time.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
Maybe that made the Lakers some money too, you know
what I mean, And maybe jersey sales.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
And it was exciting, actually exciting was and it's funny.
But the sun when your dad is like looking out
for you in that sort of way, and that's a
gotta be uncomfortable for the kid.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Yeah, you don't want that, dole.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
I'm calling him a kid, he's a grown person.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Yeah, you don't want that. I just don't think you
want that, and you know, if you're gonna be good.
Every other player out there gets criticized on sports radio,
whether the best, the worst, whatever they're being talked about.
Once you put a uniform on, fans are gonna boo
you and have opinions and commentators are gonna talk about
(25:27):
your game and this and that, and that's just part
of it. That's part of the check, it's part of
the job. It's part of what you do. And I,
like I said, he led with he was a dad
doing that, but he did it in the game or
in the game, but.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
I think it was like before the start of the
fourth quarter.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
I just don't think you did your kid any favorites.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
I don't think so either.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
Here comes daddy to the rescue, like nobody wants that.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
I'm talking down to a sports guy from TV and
to me that maybe the greatest thing was Stephen A.
Smith was sitting right next to Larry David.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
To take all that in like a superagent too as well,
I think are Yeah. So I don't know, the whole
thing is like weird.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
But I don't know if Lebron really wanted to have
a word with steven A. Smith. He is very I'm
sure easy to get on the phone or text and say,
steven A, I'm coming to you as a father. I'm
not gonna do this in public. Let's do this privately.
I love my son. I put him in a bad
situation by forcing the Lakers. If you can maybe just
take it easy on him or rag on me a
(26:28):
little more, something like that. Well, Lebron's very, very sensitive.
But isn't chat isn't that a better move?
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Well, look, I like I said, it's a it seems
like a bad look. But look, I'm not the league.
I'm not I'm never gonna be in that position to
be that great at anything. He's Mount Rushmore of basketball players.
And as a father, right, he seems like the nicest
guy in the world, a family guy. Like he's a
four star human being. Yeah, so you know.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Out of five or four out of four? Four?
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Four, okay, a good point, four out of eighteen, he's
a four out of eighteen, Dad, No, it's four out
of four. I mean, he's top shelf. So I don't
know the whole thing's it's just a bad situation. But
Lebron put himself in the bad situation the way I see.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
It, Booker and Striker. This is from the text line.
As a dad, I agree with Lebron the Sun almost
died from his heart problem. I think it hits different
because it's him and what happened. That's from Chris.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Was it, listen? Was he criticizing something personal? If there
was some personal thing about the Sun? You know what
I mean? Like whatever it could be.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
That's one thing I think steven A was criticizing Lebron
more than the kid. And the kid listen, he was
good enough to play for USC but didn't even start.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Yeah, then he was.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Drafted and he's up and down in the G League.
Give him some time. Maybe he's going to be a
late bloomer. Yeah, hopefully I'll make the NBA one day
if I keep at it. Hey, is there anyone in
the league that can force your team to draft me
second round next year? Give me one's the worst team,
Give me the word, give me all the Clippers. Just
give me one thing.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
All New
Speaker 2 (27:59):
Striker Broadcast Fast
The all new All Afternoon book Striker podcast. All Right,
Booker and Striker. Here we go on a Friday, an
alt ninety age seven Striker. How are you?
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Thanks for asking. I'm doing well. It's beautiful outside, it's
a Friday. We got some good giveaways. Good to see
you and our producer DJ Regulate, how are you.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
I was thinking about us on the way up the
hill as I was driving up Barm, and I was thinking,
it's a miracle or miraculous or something that we could
come in here every day be in a good mood.
It's not a great show, but we put on a
show every single day. We give it our best and
we have fun with people listening. It's miraculous.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Now is it miraculous because you drove on Barm today?
What I'm trying to find the correlation between driving on
Barm and the miraculous show?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
I would just telling you where the thought hit me,
and it's on the same path that you take in
every day. So maybe because I took your path in today,
I yes, I share some of you or whatever you're in.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
You know, there's something. There's some magic on Barm going
four miles per hour close to universal studios close to
the Warner Brothers life.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
There's an intersection at Lake Hollywood that they should bomb immediately.
If I was in charge, if I was the new
Pete Boodha Jedge or whatever that guy's name was, I
would be the guy to bombit for sure. Let's get
the light to fix this.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Listen, there's a liquor store there. There is, and there's
very very friendly in that in that spot there. And
also if you turn on Lake Hollywood, there's a night.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Now.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I'm not gonna give all the secrets away, but there's
a nice hike near there.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
There's a nice hike.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I went on a it never mind, it doesn't matter.
I'm not going to get to I went on a
date there started at all. Bookie Booker, what, I'm glad
you're here right. Let's brought a miraculously good show today,
horror show a show probably that's a Booker, Striker, Booker
and Striker n seven.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Our names are Booker, that's me, that's Striker. It is
all ninety eight seven our morning shows, the Woody Show.
And they're having an after hours takeover of Disney California
Adventure Park. We have five tickets in and we'll give
you those in about twenty minutes. But first it is
striker with everything happening in the world.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Just read this. Gene Hackman died a full week after
his wife Betsy, and lived in the house with her
body in the bathroom. He died. They're saying of heart
disease and Alzheimer's was a contributing factor. And they're like,
he may have just have been so confused and so
old that he didn't really understand what was going on. Well,
(02:24):
how did Betsy die a terrible a disease called hantavirus?
And that is a story that is everywhere right now.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Was her death sudden? Are they saying that it's not
like did they know it was coming? I guess it's
a bet.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
I don't know how it works. I don't think you
can beat this haunt of virus. I haven't done too
much of a deep dive on it. Well that's why
we're here. I knew I should have done some sort
of Wikipedia on hantavirus and had fifteen bullet points for you.
But yeah, just a sad story overall to know that
(03:03):
Gene Hackman, first he loses his wife, but it was
he was in such a place physically and mentally that
he didn't call anybody or let anybody know, and he
was it was like seven eight days and then he
passed away. After that, Wow, I'm got a segue to
a lighter luck. A couple of things that we've talked
about over the last couple of days. I just want
(03:23):
to bring it up again because it makes me happy.
Happy Gilmore Too Drops on July twenty fifth on Netflix,
makes us happy, and I wanted to do a deep
dive on that. Not the Haunt of virus, but who's
in Happy Gilmore Too Bad? Bunny Eminem, Travis Kelce, Rory McElroy,
Your favorite golfer is making an appearance. Who's your favorite
modern golfer?
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Tiger Woods?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
No, modern modern Scott, Yeah, he's in the movie. Then
he got Christopher McDonald of course, and Julie Bowen and
then our man, the Sandman Adam Sandler, July twenty fifth
on Netflix.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Huh, I read a today.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I did a lot of reading today that about ten
companies control most of the egg sales in our country.
One of them has made a billion dollars. And this
report that I was reading from Food and Water Watch,
they're saying the bird flow outbreak for sure has had
an effect on egg prices, but they really are attributing
(04:22):
it to greed, corporate greed playing a major role the
egg cut right exactly. But the a billion dollars one
of the companies is made from this god and prices
have just about doubled over the last six, seven, eight
weeks for eggs.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
But let's all vote for corporate interest because they'll take
care of us.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
You know. I'm going to continue the egg theme. Congratulations
to Jackie and Shadow. They're the bald eagles in Big
Bear up there in that tree three eaglitz yep are
now well, we know they're sound. Hopefully they're safe in there,
and I believe Jackie and Shadow take turns protecting them.
Jackie go fly around for a little. Oh let me
(05:02):
come back, Shadow, you go fly.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I was watching and I really went in on this.
I was watching these two like they kind of fight
over the time of who, you know, gets to sit
on the eggs. Of course, now they've hatched, they don't
have to worry about that so much now. But uh,
it's such a warming feeling just watching this story, and
I can't help but think about the little iglitz. At
the moment that they come out, it's like snowing and
(05:26):
cold and crap snow. Are they like, what is this crap?
Like we were in this nice warm eg Is this
what the world is? No? No, no, no, guys, this
is southern California. It's gonna be beautiful. Suit Like they
have no idea what's about to hit them?
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Ring? But hold on f the weather. Can you imagine
what it's like when they know that they can fly.
They're sitting there, but I can't move out of this nest.
I got wood sticking into my stomach. I got a
heavy ass bird on top of me. Wait till they
can really.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Use those wings?
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Man? And how come there's no We should have a
ton of care in nests all around the world. I
would love to be able to every now and then, hey,
what are these birds up to? And whatever nest it is?
Don't forget to set your clocks forward an hour officially
would be Sunday at two am. When you do that.
Clippers Knicks tonight, go Lakers, last night overtime win versus
(06:16):
the Knicks. Tomorrow, LAFC is playing in Seattle and Lakers
Celtics tomorrow Lakers Celtics tomorrow. I'm striker. That's all I
come alt afternoons with Booker and Striker, Oh ninety eight seven.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Booker and Striker on A ninety eight seven.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
It's all a shirt of theirs in Target. You should
wear it.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
You did.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
We're gonna give you a five pack of tickets for
California Adventure for the Woody Show. Takeover your chance to
win before three forty two.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
My best friend is in town. Shout out Dave, and
I think he got me today because we've got a
two for today. We had lunch and then we're gonna
have dinner. But the lunch was just us, and dinner
will be with some friends. But he insisted on paying
for lunch, which that you right. He rolls his eyes.
Striker rolls his eyes.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
It's the oldest trick in the book. Lunch is fifty
percent less expensive. There's probably a lemonade or a nice
tea involved. There's not a vodka soda or two or three,
or an end of dinner shot. Because it's a Friday night.
This guy just played you like a fiddle. Dave could
move book, so now I did.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Yes, I'm telling you, I even thought of it striker,
I was like, I did you thought of it? In
the thought of it, I mean I had my hand
in my pocket, gripped around my credit card, ready for
the person to come over, and that person just laid
it out like a blackjack dealer, very quickly on ut
but laid it right in front of him. And he's like,
I you know, it was like slow motion, like I
(07:41):
got that thing out. He had it right in front.
He goes, oh, no, no, no, dude, I haven't seen
you forever got this one.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Okay, so maybe that's going to carry over to the
dinner as well, and you should say, hey, you got
this tonight as well, since it's been forever.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
I don't think it works that way.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
It could work, It could work. I wouldn't do it,
but no, I can't start doing it. Okay.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
He got me though. I'm so screwed.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
You got played. Damn it.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
It's Booker and Striker.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Booker and Striker, all right, take me out and you're.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Going out tonight. Get set on your way home from
work on Friday afternoon. Thank you for punching into Booker
and Striker. A little gift for you five tickets to
the Woody Show after hours take over the Woody Show
was so nice to give us these to give to
you every hour of our show, a five pack of tickets.
Your chance to win is coming up. But first it
is Striker with everything happening in the world.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Today is happy employee appreciation? What which means your company
should be celebrating you right now. Maybe it's like, guys,
we're gonna buy you a pizza, Hamburger, here's a gift,
here's something we'll walk in. Has your company done that
for you today? Nope, because they're saying you're lucky to
have a job. Do it well, or else you'll be
(08:52):
out of here.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Anyway, company checking in, We're still waiting.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Doors open, wide open. There's a contemporary artist Japanese artist
very well known named Takashi Murakami, and he is partnered
with Major League Baseball to release a collection of merchandise
for the Los Angeles Dodgers, celebrating the Dodgers when they
(09:20):
visit Tokyo to open up the Major League Baseball season
this year. This artist is cool as can be. I'm
just starting to learn of him. The Dodgers, the jersey
designs and everything are so cool. There's actually a pop
up in LA going on and it's fairly crowded there.
It's complex La. It's on Fairfax. Everybody knows Fairfax. But
a shout out to this artist again, super famous and
(09:43):
to partner with MLB and the Dodgers. I love how
these jerseys look.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Man. Sounds like a home run to me.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Very well done.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
But thank you, thank you. I'll be here all day.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
There's a couple movies, classic ones that are going to
be re released in theaters. One of them is in
my top five favorite movies of all time. The other one,
it's Fine Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Fine. I
know some of you love that one. It's fine. It'll
be in theater celebrating fifty years May fourth and seventh.
But now let's go to Jaws. Jaws turns fifty this year.
(10:18):
It's gonna be re released in theaters August twenty ninth
to celebrate. I love this movie. Directed by Steven Spielberg.
Y'all know me, Jannahiner Livin. I'll catch that Berg for you,
but it ain't gonna be easy.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Never saw it?
Speaker 2 (10:33):
How have you never seen Jaws?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
No Desire? Fish in the Water.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
It was nominated for Best Picture.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
I guess people are in the water and the fish
is also in the water with them and haunts the people,
chastises the people, and maybe even eats a few people.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
It's one of the best directed movies you're ever gonna see.
You really don't see the shark until many minutes into
the movie. Again nominated for Best Picture, It was No.
Number One at the box office for fourteen weeks in
a row. Wo a young, young, young Steven Spielberg. I
think it was his second movie. He was way over budget.
People were like, what the hell are we doing with
(11:11):
this kid directing. The movie is based on a novel
that did really well. I love the movie Jaws. If
you haven't seen it, you may not want to go
into the ocean after. It's that good and that terrifying.
I absolutely love it.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Two.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Speaking of jerseys, two NBA jerseys are going up for
sale and could go for a combined twenty million dollars.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Jeez.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
These are the two jerseys Michael Jordan's first ever jersey
that he wore in a preseason game nineteen eighty four
in its autograph Wow jersey number two, the late great
Kobe Bryant's first ever regular season Lakers jersey when he
made his debut in nineteen ninety seven.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
They get a hold of that.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
I don't know how people get hold of these things.
The most expensive jersey ever sold was a Michael Jordan
jersey from the Last Dance. That's nineteen ninety eight. Ten
point one million dollars for a jersey. Yeah, that was
a Jordan jersey. So these are gonna go for a
lot of the month.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
I just put one up in my house, put it
in a frame, and just lie. That's from a game
number four of Michael Jordan's career.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
I'll scribble Michael Jordan's scribble number twenty three. Goat put
goat on it. Really, Michael wrote goat Yeah weird.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
He knew all the way back then he was the best.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Clippers. Nixt tonight, Clippers are favored by seven and.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
X are going to be tired after last night.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Absolutely, good job to the Lakers. Nay tomorrow, Lakers Celtics. Also,
LAFC plays tomorrow in Seattle. I'm striker. That's all I
got all to afternoons with Booker and Striker.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
All right, Booker and Striker. It is ninety eight seven
on this Friday.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
It's National serial Day. You know, every single day it's
National tequila Day, it's bread day, Today's cereal day. Okay,
So I guess they want us to appreciate the cereal.
I love cereal. I think Booker does it as well.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Nah, you used to well, are you off it? Well,
I haven't had cereal. I'm trying to think the last
time I had a bowl of cereal.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Yeah, I don't know when the last time I had one?
Okay was either, But I use at one point in
life I really enjoyed it.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Kids, we always had it. You brought up a memory
the other day about like the back of the cereal
box and things were happening on it. We'd read it
and stops about that. I forgot all about it.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
And then you could cut out the back and the
prize was inside. You would stick your dirty hand in
the cereal. We would get it from the bottom. But
some of the cereal boxes will put it outside of
the plastic inside the box.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Oh, I don't recall that. I do remember fishing through
the box with dirty hands, you know, just looking for
whatever two switch plastic, plastic whatever that you'd choke on
later on in life. I'm sure your dog died because
it ate it or whatever. Yeah, I remember those, but
now I can't remember the last time I had a
bowl of cereal. To be honest with you, maybe like
on vacation or something like if there was like a
(13:57):
buffet and you're like, oh, I'll have some right great
nuts or something. Whatever's laid out their cheerios.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
Well you your fruit loops and count shocula person.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Yes, as a kid, I love me some Count Chocula.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
As a kid, I like frosted flakes and cheerio.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Do you think they still hold up like the flavors
that we liked as a kid. Do you think we
would be into it as much? Because I got a
sneaky suspicion that says, no, you wouldn't. Yeah, I think
I would think Count Chocula is disgusting.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
No, I think you would like Count Shocula for five
minutes and then you would have enough and you would
drink the milk because the milk ends up decent after
a Count Shocula or cocoa puff serving.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Let me tell you why push back on this As
an adult, I look at cereal now for what it is.
It's disgusting. It's big balls of sugar, okay, and then furthermore,
on top of that, when you're looking at the big
balls of sugar, then you look at count chocula. I
don't even know what styrofoam the damn supposed marshmallow was
(14:55):
made out of. It was a rock in a box,
So you know what I mean, Like I in my mind,
I don't think I would let myself enjoy it. I
don't think i'd even look at it like a piece
of candy. I would just be utterly disgusted.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
But at some point in our life, we were told
cereals good for you, right because and it would be
on the box there's five minerals here, and there's real
apples and the apple jacks, right, and everyone, the adults,
yeah right, this is good for you before you go
to school. Straight out.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
They'd make us before we you know, if we're gonna
go to school, we'd run out the door. We didn't
need to be fed when we were kids. We just left,
you know, just left.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
How did we make it through the day?
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Right now, chain us to the kitchen table and be
like eat something, and it'd be like, all right, whatever,
I'll just take this box of sugar and I'll just
eat this before I.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Go to school. I did enjoy, and do enjoy, I
mean I haven't had God, it sounds like I'm not
someone that enjoys sweets, because I do. I just been
a while since I've really just gotten eaten. I mean
a candy bar every now and then or whatever. But
the cereal, when the milk is really cold and it's
your favorite cereal and you haven't had it in a while,
(16:01):
the first few bites are very good. Yeah, okay, let's
just go quickly here.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
What's your favorite adult cereal?
Speaker 2 (16:08):
But what is? What do you mean?
Speaker 1 (16:10):
I mean not count chocola that is care about count
talk you like. I liked it as a kid, but
like now, I'll be honest with you. I like granola
like a big.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Not good for you though, don't care it's terrible for you.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
I like DJ regularly.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Think I know a booker means I have a perfect
example of an adult cereal. Okay, honey, bunches of boats,
I get it right, It sounds adult, But those are
terrible for you.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Gotta be they gotta be like just sugar. I think, yeah,
they all are, But are they all?
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Are they? I mean, we're sitting here as radio host, who,
by the way, not in great shape.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
None of us speak for yourself.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
So the top five cereals are easily, in no particular order,
fruity pebbles, crunch berries, cocoa puffs.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Your list sucks already.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Frosted flakes, and lucky charms top five.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
I know, just five, maybe Lucky Charms on my list,
But I mean these other cereals. What about captain crunch.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
That's well, yes, captain crunch. The cookie ruins your tongue
in the roof of your mouth.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Okay, but captain crunch is like a derivative of peanut butter.
You don't like peanut butter, but you like captain crunch.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Well, no, there's three different kinds. Oh, there are the
Captain and I go way back. I'm a crunch brother
of Captain Crunch. So there were, and I can't think
of the exact name. There was a peanut butter crunch,
then there's the crunch berries with the berries, and then
the regular flavored Captain crunch. DJ regulated am I on
the right track with all this? Thank you?
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Yeah? The only captain I like now is an adult
is Captain Morgan. That's about it.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
Yeah, that's a good captain.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
What's your favorite cereal? Two two nine.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Booker and Striker Booker and Striker.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
On National Cereal Day, I was thinking about the seal
that I hated the most as a kid, like it
just kind of popped into my mind. Do you remember
grape nuts?
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yeah? There were no grapes in the cereal right.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
They just sucked. It was like crappy pieces of bran
or something. I forget who tried to slip me a
grape nut once, but I was like, these blow? What
are the good ones that our audience likes? Two two
nine eight.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
There is one cereal getting more mentions than any other cereal.
I'll tell you who it is in a second, but
I want to start with this one. And we didn't
mention this from the seven to four guys. Did anyone
else's mom let them put two heaping spoonfuls of sugar
into their plain rice, Crispy cereal and milk? Yep, yes,
how wild two scoops threw it right in the u
(18:42):
in the Rices cereal.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Like all these sugary cereals, they required more sugar bias.
I feel like frosted flakes. Was it frosted flakes should
put sugar on.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
No regular corn flakes you would do it.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Oh, corn flakes, Yes, frosted flakes wouldn't. Yeah, they're already
frosted because it had that glaze on it. That right,
that coat of paint or paste or whatever's on that crap.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Guys, Coco Pebbles, Tony the Tiger, and Tricks. Those are
my childhood go toos. Right there, tricks were kind of laying.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
I thought, I like.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
A trick every now and then.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Yeah, that's a different sort of trick.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Booker and Striker. I have a bowl of cereal almost
every night as a dessert, and lately it's been fruit
loops for lucky charms. Wow, guys, in no particular order,
here are my favorite cereals. Applejack's frosted Flakes, Chocolate frosted Flakes,
Honey Bunches of Oats, and corn pops Jason streaming in
Hawaii right now. Then we go to Tania, guys, Cinnamon
toast crunch because I love the taste of the milk
(19:34):
after the cereal is never like well, uh CTC is
getting more love on the text line than any other
cereal right now, Cinnamon toast Crunch, But then Carolyn and
Costa Mesa. She's a Raisin Brand girl.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I love Raisin Brand.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Loved it. Seven and four. You didn't put your name.
Honey smacks very underrated. I believe the frog or the
bear was the mascot of the honey smacks. Yeah, cinnamon
toast was.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
The honey cut. Was there honeycombs?
Speaker 2 (20:00):
There was a honeycomb and a yellow box.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, I remember that too.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
I was almost in a honeycomb commercial when I was twelve.
They were filming it at the park where I was
playing basketball. But I whatever, I didn't end up in it,
but I remember they were filming it, right, I almost
ended up in it. Coco Pebbles, Captain Crunch, Waffle Crisps,
and him in toast, Crunch Booker and Striker. You guys
are crazy. I love my cocoa pebbles. I'm forty years old.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
By the way, was it frosted many wheats that had
the coating on one side and like the wheat on
the other side. I only liked the coating side with
the sugar on the top. Those were good.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Seven one four guys frosted many wheats as a child
and an adult. Love me some fiber. Now that is
the best cereal to have milk make it soggy. That's
the number one.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
You couldn't eat that. That was like one of those
you had to wait to eat it because you'd dunk
that thing. You get your spoon and you would you'd
hold it down like you were drowning the damn thing
and you'd hold it there for a minute to it
was completely milked out. But you only really liked that
hop sugar coating on the top because if you ended
up with the bottom byte first, that sucks.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
The expansion of the cereal. Once it hits your stomach,
you get all this like foam right inside going down
your Trachi three year intestine. Then it just inside.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
What a kids eat for breakfast? Now? Did they still
eat cereal? Are you know things that are better for them?
I mean, it's got to be cereal. There's an entire
aisle at the grocery name any grocery store, there's an
entire aisle dedicated to cereal. And then tire.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
Beautiful looking aile. It's clean, the boxes have great colors
on them. And how about this. The mascots for these
cereals have been around for one hundred years. Who can
say someone was hit a boardroom? Right A rabbit? Silly
rabbit tricks are for kids. Then you got the Leprechaun
for lucky Charms. Now it's amazing like that. And the
design of the cereal boxes is an A plus. I mean,
(21:56):
we have shirts Booker and Striker. We got a good
logo that'll be around another six months once our contracts
are up.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
Woody Show After Hours takeover a five package ticket. We're
gonna give you a chance to win them right after
this song. If you're listening on the iHeartRadio app, get
the dialing eight hundred and seven eighty two seven nine
eighty seven.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Booker and Striker.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
The electric feel of the weekend. You got Booker and
Striker on this Friday. It is all ninety eight seven
more commercial freemore tickets to the Woody Show takeover of
Disney California Adventure Park. Five of those are coming up.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
What did you think about Lebron James during the game
finding Steven A Smith from ESPN, who is a very
well known sports broadcaster and host opinionated show, A plus
lister when it comes to that and what it seems
like he told Stephen A. Smith is quit talking about
my son on your show, right, And it was during
(22:51):
the game.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
That's RW.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Lebron's son, Bronnie is a professional basketball player drafted by
the Lakers. He's not like a fourteen year old in
junior high school.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Right.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Steven A. Smith said that Lebron was talking to him
not as an LA Laker, but as a father.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Yeah, he led with that, which shows you how smart
Stephen A. Smith is because that's a solid line right there.
It's a good point. I mean, look, he's a commentator
on sports and a guy that probably shouldn't be in
the league. He's an EPO baby. I mean, that's it.
He's not good enough.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
To guy front of the line pass.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
He got in front of the line pass. And that's fine.
It happens in the world, and it's cool, and I think.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
It happened in the plumbing business. You know, something wherever.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
You happen anywhere. But if you're if you're someone that
does commentary on a basketball team and how the basketball
players play when they're not that good or not good
enough for whatever, that's part of the job. I mean,
if someone says we suck on the radio, they're right.
Number one. Number two we have to take it, you
(23:59):
know what I mean. Like it's all subjective, you know
what I mean. Like, and maybe basketball isn't so much
because there's points, you know, there's an.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
A shooting and how many assists you get a game
or if you play defense.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Right, So I don't know. I just think it's kind
of weak that you know, you got it his son.
You really put the kid in a bad situation.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
That is the biggest point for me, because the kid
is just trying to improve as a basketball player, playing
in the G League. Every now and then he gets
to sit on the bench with the Lakers. His dad
forced the Lakers into drafting his son because it's a
good story and Lebron has that kind of powers. He's
one of the top three players of all time.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
Maybe that made the Lakers some money too, you know
what I mean, And maybe jersey sales.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
And it was exciting, actually exciting was and it's funny.
But the sun when your dad is like looking out
for you in that sort of way, and that's a
gotta be uncomfortable for the kid.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Yeah, you don't want that, dole.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
I'm calling him a kid, he's a grown person.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Yeah, you don't want that. I just don't think you
want that, and you know, if you're gonna be good.
Every other player out there gets criticized on sports radio,
whether the best, the worst, whatever they're being talked about.
Once you put a uniform on, fans are gonna boo
you and have opinions and commentators are gonna talk about
(25:27):
your game and this and that, and that's just part
of it. That's part of the check, it's part of
the job. It's part of what you do. And I,
like I said, he led with he was a dad
doing that, but he did it in the game or
in the game, but.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
I think it was like before the start of the
fourth quarter.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
I just don't think you did your kid any favorites.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
I don't think so either.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
Here comes daddy to the rescue, like nobody wants that.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
I'm talking down to a sports guy from TV and
to me that maybe the greatest thing was Stephen A.
Smith was sitting right next to Larry David.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
To take all that in like a superagent too as well,
I think are Yeah. So I don't know, the whole
thing is like weird.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
But I don't know if Lebron really wanted to have
a word with steven A. Smith. He is very I'm
sure easy to get on the phone or text and say,
steven A, I'm coming to you as a father. I'm
not gonna do this in public. Let's do this privately.
I love my son. I put him in a bad
situation by forcing the Lakers. If you can maybe just
take it easy on him or rag on me a
(26:28):
little more, something like that. Well, Lebron's very, very sensitive.
But isn't chat isn't that a better move?
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Well, look, I like I said, it's a it seems
like a bad look. But look, I'm not the league.
I'm not I'm never gonna be in that position to
be that great at anything. He's Mount Rushmore of basketball players.
And as a father, right, he seems like the nicest
guy in the world, a family guy. Like he's a
four star human being. Yeah, so you know.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Out of five or four out of four? Four?
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Four, okay, a good point, four out of eighteen, he's
a four out of eighteen, Dad, No, it's four out
of four. I mean, he's top shelf. So I don't
know the whole thing's it's just a bad situation. But
Lebron put himself in the bad situation the way I see.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
It, Booker and Striker. This is from the text line.
As a dad, I agree with Lebron the Sun almost
died from his heart problem. I think it hits different
because it's him and what happened. That's from Chris.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Was it, listen? Was he criticizing something personal? If there
was some personal thing about the Sun? You know what
I mean? Like whatever it could be.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
That's one thing I think steven A was criticizing Lebron
more than the kid. And the kid listen, he was
good enough to play for USC but didn't even start.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Yeah, then he was.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Drafted and he's up and down in the G League.
Give him some time. Maybe he's going to be a
late bloomer. Yeah, hopefully I'll make the NBA one day
if I keep at it. Hey, is there anyone in
the league that can force your team to draft me
second round next year? Give me one's the worst team,
Give me the word, give me all the Clippers. Just
give me one thing.
