Speaker 5 (01:04):
Go on me Ukes, Petrosen Money Am five seventy LA
Sports Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app Another hour to Go,
two hours to go, actually our first hour in the books.
Following Dodger Baseball, they put it on The Guardians their
final spring training contest of the Camelback Ranch portion of
the exhibition season. A bit of an oddity for the
(01:28):
Dodgers for the second consecutive year they will play.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
It makes you wonder. I mean, maybe we'll ask Dave
Roberts about this when he joins us. Yeah, next t
It does make you wonder with the Dodgers playing back
to back years in East Asia and going to Korea
and going to Tokyo. I mean, of course, I'm sure
that they fully fulfilled their quota for having to go overseas.
(01:53):
You know, we talk about this in the NFL all
the time. You're going to Rio de Janeiro this year,
or excuse me, to San Paolo, Sao Paolo with the
with the Chargers this year. But uh, even if they've
fulfilled whatever it is is their their quota, is it
not advantageous for the Dodgers and Gougenheim with Otani and
(02:15):
I mean particularly you Otani and Yamamoto at two to
go to the Japan.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
And it's why, Yeah, it was so. I think for
people that just think it's a throwaway question and a
throwaway statement, no it's not.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
But they're going to go every year. I mean, is.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
That David Vasse saying that the players are excited about
this one? That's important? Right, because the players, so the
you know, the MLBPA is the most powerful player union
of any sport, and if they decide to do it
for a third year, they'd be like, no, well enough,
I get it. It's a global brand and everybody's going
to come out to see Otani and it helps push
the game. But you can't do this to the team
(02:51):
three years, they know. But the fact that the players
are into it and.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
They won the World Series this year. Yea, having gone
to Roria, now I know that Australian trip Blue Kershaw's
back out and it was a cautionary tale for many years.
But I mean, forgive me if I don't if I'm
wrong in saying this isn't this Tokyo trip brought to
you by Guggenheim. The whole thing is being sponsored Cubs
and Dodgers by the Guggenheim group that owns the Dodgers.
(03:17):
It is okay, So are they gonna They're gonna do
this every year? And why wouldn't they do it with
the team that they own, that has the number one
attraction on it. I mean, no one's gonna want to
go see the Brewers play the d Backs in Tokyo
they're gonna want to go see Otani.
Speaker 6 (03:31):
Well, if I can interject real quick, next year, they're
not doing this from what I understand, because it's the
World Baseball Classic year. Ah, so this will not happen
in twenty six. But after that, I'm sure they're gonna
go back. You have to say, right, maybe even longer
than two games. Make it a whole week of both, right,
making them off. Yes, March is brought to you by Guggenheim.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
It's the most populated city in the world. Let's get
out there.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
Some even think that it's a country.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
That was that was a slip of the tongue. We
ignored that it was a slip of the tongue. He knows,
how do we know?
Speaker 3 (04:06):
How do we know? I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
I mean how many times has he seen Karate Kid two?
David Vasse, Yeah, at least, But does he know that
Oki Nawa is an island?
Speaker 3 (04:17):
I don't.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
Yes, I think anything that was shared in Karate Kid
two about that particular part of the world island committed
to his memory.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Not even that sure.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
Well, Dave Roberts would say he was there this offseason
celebrating his World Series Championship he was.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
I mean, Dave Roberts is really the only Dodger that
and he's going to join us next.
Speaker 5 (04:41):
The smallest and the least populated of the five islands
of Japan.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Ok Now, Okay, so there you go. Uh, Dave Roberts
is the only Dodger to do the real victory lap.
You know what I'm saying right.
Speaker 5 (04:55):
As you like to call it the rubber chicken circuit.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Yeah, I mean, he really stretched his legs out and
did the circuit. Not everybody did. And I'm glad that
he did it because Dave Roberts, who could have even
been fired had the Dodgers blew it in the playoffs
last year. I mean, he'd been the scapegoat for quite
some time other than twenty twenty, and instead of that,
(05:19):
looks to be waltzing into the Hall of Fame because
of what happened against the Yankees and onward. So pretty interesting,
no doubt about it.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
Last year was his year. It was the postseason of
Dave the bullpen game against the Padres with his back
against the wall, seemingly making every right move as you said,
in the Yankees against the Yankees in the World Series,
and now he is the highest paid manager in baseball,
a position that David Vesse told us yesterday has been
wildly underpaid for the last well forever really until Craig
(05:55):
Council got that deal with the Cubs last year. So
congratulations to him for are passing Craig Council.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
All right, here's my number.
Speaker 5 (06:06):
Okay, your number of the day is nineteen dollars. So
I don't know if you've ever been confronted with this.
The one place I don't want to be upsold is
the airport.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Now, well, isn't that a place where you're often upsold
unless you're duty free.
Speaker 5 (06:27):
So here's the thing. Just assume I'm going to take
the double, and I would assume that that's the correct
approach for every traveler at the bar. Right, you're always
going to take the double. The great majority of folks
that are moving around are either doing it for work.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Well, the bartender tells you it's a better it's a
better deal to take the doubles, sir.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
So I'm not talking about the upsell of the double,
But pee, have you ever been upsold? I saw this
poor girl at the Long Beach Airport get upsold for
a nineteen dollars neck pillow that wasn't even for her.
There is a little basket on the counter that is
gifts for veterans, and they are going to send these
(07:11):
gifts overseas.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Oh, you buy the gift and it's really a grift. Yes,
here's I don't trust anymore.
Speaker 5 (07:20):
Yes, if there is one place you don't want to
do that, I am all for supporting our troops that
are stationed overseas. And I'm sure there are many charities
that you can investigate and donate to, and I would
certainly encourage that and I would be happy to do
it as well. Do not buy the ten dollars box
of skittles or the nineteen dollars neck pillow that this
(07:43):
poor girl who just wanted her freaking Dasani water and
Orbit pack of golf.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
She got upsold twenty bucks for.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
A neck pillow that was going to be sent to
the troops. And she's like, yeah, whatever, just grab something
out of there. Anything is fine. You know, this woman's
grabbing a neck pillow.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
And now there's people behind her. She doesn't know what
to do.
Speaker 5 (08:02):
So now she's like, wait a minute, my bill is
thirty five dollars now for water and to pack a
gum and a freaking pillow. Come on, it's just don't
do that. Don't feel pressured in. Nobody is gonna look
at you and think what a bad breath. There is
no negative karma in your plane is not going to
crash into a fireball because you didn't buy the neck
(08:22):
pillow for the veteran. And you want as much good
karma as you can before you fly at thirty seven
thousand feet in a tin can. That's not how it works.
Go ahead and donate another way, as opposed to the
incredibly marked up Hudson.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Use ideas ball.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
Now.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
I don't know, but it's in every airport now, it
is everywhere I fly. There is the basket of things
you can purchase that will be sent to troops stationed overseas.
And it's a collection of candies and beef jerky and
neck pillows and books and all that crap. And I
have no idea how they came up with this scam,
(08:57):
but I can promise you that's exactly what it is,
and don't fall for it, especially if you believe it
has something to do with your karma. On the flight
you're about to board.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Well, I mean, you can't tell people what to believe, Matt.
It's an issue of faith, real question, the word of
the day. I should I'm remiss to not mention this, Matt.
Eddie George got the job at Bowling Green. Now, why
are we interested in Bowling Green? First of all, we
are your maction show of record, not close, not even close.
(09:29):
And Eddie George, former friend of the show, used to
join us every week. I used to work with him,
a whole bunch in studio at Fox. And a Heisman
winner and just a wonderful guy NFL Hall of Fame
type and a great Heisman Trophy winner at Ohio State,
as we said, And he was coaching at Tennessee State,
took over a struggling program, won eight games last year,
(09:51):
and he's been hired at Bowling Green. Why do we care?
Two reasons? Two great Bowling Green, falcon a lums right,
Oral Herscheizer, who just had hip surgery. That's why Eric
Carross is going to Tokyo, and we wish everybody luck,
and we hope Oral feels better, and we wish him
(10:12):
a swift recovery. And Tim Conway Junior ding Dong Ding
Dong indeed another bowling greener, go Falcons. Let's go Eddie George. Now,
Michael Vick got a job too, right he did. Yeah?
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Yes, I was supposed to be Sack State, but instead
Sack State hired Norfolk State. Right, Norfolk State.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Yeah, sax State hired Brennan Marion, who was the offensive
coordinator at UNLV. Maybe a little bit more proven offensive
guy than Michael Vick. Just as far as calling plays, Yes,
that's all I would say.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
Norfolk State University Athletics. Let's go the Mishima, Let's go Minuteman.
Speaker 7 (10:58):
The song of the day, The Drive is the title
of our song of the Day from a duo out
of the Borough of Brooklyn called The Widow's Peak. Because
the Petros and Money Show has taken over Afternoon Drive
on your AM radio following Spring training Dodger Baseball, where
the flashing beacon of gorey A Sports Talk will safely
(11:20):
guide you into the Bruins Insiders Show with Brian Fenley
as UCLA prepares for the Big ten tournament that I'm
sure we'll hear all about at seven o'clock.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Spartans Man, Spartans, Spartans.
Speaker 5 (11:32):
There we go, our poach State Spartans.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
We'll be right back with more great sports talk. It
will be Dave Roberts, Dodger skipper, celebrating a historic contract
and on the precipice of a historic trip.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
No great sports talk.
Speaker 5 (12:03):
Go until seven pm. Brwin Insider will come up after that,
and speaking of the Bruins, double by for their inaugural
run in the Big Ten Tournament. The Lady Bruins already
won the Big Ten Women's Basketball Tournament. Mc cronin and
his male Bruins. We'll try to do the same beginning
on Friday. You'll hear that right here eleven thirty am
(12:23):
Tip on AM five seventy LA Sports not only your
home of the Bruins, but your home of the Dodgers
as well.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Matt, What a wonderful year and off season for this
man who's been so gracious to us for so long,
whether things are up or down, always available and gracious
to the radio show and to the fans. Two time
World Series champion signed a four year contract extension with
(12:52):
the Dodgers that runs through twenty twenty nine. It is
a lucrative contract. I'd say he's gonna up the quality
of the red stitch one, but the quality is so
high that the ceiling is cat on the precipice of
a great and historic trip to a place that is
meaningful to his own history. The Great Dave Roberts on
(13:15):
your Southern California Toyota Dealer Celebrity Hotline. What a day
to be talking to the Skipper, Dave. Congratulations first and foremost,
and thank you so much for joining us today, guys.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
I am so grateful to be on with you guys. Finally,
it was probably the worst kept secret the last few days,
but I just couldn't be more excited to know, you know,
looking out for the next five years, I'm gonna be
with the Dodgers and you know, planning and planning on
winning a few more championships.
Speaker 5 (13:51):
Was it at all stressful, Dave? I know it. You know,
for those people listening in fans and stuff, it's kind
of hard for them to relate. It's such a great gig.
You're the skipper of the Dodge, but you're also part
of a group of managers that look out for each
other and you want to kind of make sure you're
viewed the right way you should be viewed. And you're
sort of the guy that everybody was looking to to
try to set a tone for for what you do
(14:13):
and how important this job is and how you should
be compensated.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
You know what, that's that's actually there. That's there's some
truth to that, certainly, and like most things, it's bigger
than yourself. Obviously. The most important thing is, you know,
what was good for for my my wife, my family.
We wanted to be here. I made no I didn't
hide that at all. The organization felt the same way.
(14:39):
And it's uh, I'm just happy that I had my agent,
you know, John Boggs kind of hand to all that stuff.
But there is something too that where there's comparables in
kind of sports and and work and and the work world, right,
and so uh, that's a little bit part of it. Ultimately,
this is a place I wanted to be and everyone
knew that.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
The One and only Dave Roberts, our guest, we talked
about the trip to Japan. I know there's a lot
of emotions going on, and I mean, we can't put
ourselves in your shoes. We can imagine what a great
thing it is to be an MLB player and then coach,
and then what it is to be the manager of
the Dodgers. My god, but now you start looking at
(15:21):
the history your career, Dave, You've you've managed these guys
in Australia, uh in uh in in Korea. Uh you're
taking them to Japan. Uh it's just Mexico. I mean,
this is what's it? I mean, do you have perspective
on what these trips mean? Uh? Are you able to
do that in the moment? Or is it all business?
Speaker 4 (15:44):
You know what it's It's pretty it's pretty much all business.
There's a little bit of play. But I will say,
and I think you guys know me pretty well, and
I just think that uh, you know, on the first level,
it's it's for the players, the coaches logistically, but I
think that overall, our guys just really understand that it's
(16:07):
bigger than them. And for the Dodgers to be able
to go to whether it's Australia, Mexico, Soul, Korea and
then Tokyo, Japan, I mean there's Dodger jerseys and hats
and you know, uniforms all over the world and that's
pretty special. So to be able to go with the Dodgers,
(16:28):
it's a trip of a lifetime.
Speaker 5 (16:30):
What are the just logistically challenges and why you set
it up the way you do when you start spring training,
and how much planning has to go into making sure
these guys are right for those two games for spring
training and when you come back to get things rolling
on the twenty seventh of March.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Logistically was tougher last year because it was the first
time we had done it as far as Asia, and
so now if you look at kind of and we
got through it came back in a good spot. There
wasn't as much jet lag, and our guys are the
player performance guys do such a good job as well
as when we sleep hitting you know, compression flocks and
(17:11):
fins like to stay up or to rest well, and
so that part is easy. And thankfully our players money
are smart and they came into camp ready to go,
and so building up the pitchers was pretty easy. The
position player side. You know, I was talking to Taska
and then is today and he's like, we just feel
(17:33):
like four weeks were ready to go, and then to
play two games there to come back to the exhibitions
and there shouldn't be much kind of grogginess jet lag,
and we'll be ready for the Tigers for the home
opener for.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
You guys, do you have to set the team aside
and talk about just how crazy it's going to be
out there as far as the amount of people and
and and all of that stuff logistically or is that
something that just kind of takes care of itself.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
Well, you know what, I think our security team major
League Baseball, they do a good job kind of prepping
everyone and keeping us safe. But a little bird said
that there's going to be close to a million fans
to greet us when we land. I don't know how
truth that is true that is, but I mean that's
(18:22):
just it's gonna be bananas. And so I would like
to be showhy in a lot of capacities. But going
back to Tokyo, I do not want to be sho
hey Otani what uh.
Speaker 5 (18:34):
You know, it's it's Otani, it's Yamamoto. And man, what
an outing by Sasaki today? What's going on there? Like
he gets in games and this is not sort of
the thing they've been hearing about from rookie Sasaki and
kind of you guys working through it with him and
trying to get him right. He looked like he was
mowing everything down in his way. Today.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
He looks so good. I mean it was pretty effortless today.
I think if you guys listen to me, I just
didn't want him to and people to feel that he's
gonna be you know, Heydeo Nomo coming over here as
Hedeo was an older guy, a seasoned veteran coming over
to the States, and you know, there's some finishing schools
that meets up with Roki and so he's super talented.
(19:16):
He's had a great spring, but there's still a learning
trip that needs happened. But yeah, you know, to be
able to go to Japan and have those three guys,
you know, on our club, it's gonna be special. And
as you know, Mark Walter and Andrew Friedman, we want
to paint the country of Japan blue. And I think
we've done that.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
You got to build your roster kind of twice here
for this trip and then kind of again for the reset,
like you talked about for the Tigers and opening day
and all that. Going through a spring a week early
and all that is that is that harder. Did you
build the roster today the way you kind of wanted
to and the way you foresaw it.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
It's a little tricky we've got two exhibition games there
against a couple of Japanese teams, one being the Tokyo Giants,
which is like the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball,
and then you've got two real games against the Cups.
And so Major League Baseball only allows us to take
(20:19):
thirty one players. And so there are players in the
fact that like, for example, Dustin May, who's going to
be our fifth starter. And we had a hard conversation
with Dustin that we had to keep him back here
in Arizona so he can build up for his start
against the Braves, I think, in that second series, and
so he couldn't you know, take part in this trip
(20:41):
and other guys like that, and we just couldn't take Evan.
We're pitcher heavy because we got to, you know, guard
against pitchers not totally being built up. So there's a
little you know, gymnastic roster gymnastics to go.
Speaker 5 (20:54):
With that stick on that day with Dustin May, and
were you at all? I always take using the word
surprise because you guys know kind of exactly where these
guys are, but just kind of take us through what
you saw from him in spring training, what you expected
him from him in spring training and how he ended up.
You know, Nyalen, I know Tony Gonsolin is going to
(21:15):
start on the IL, but just how he was the
guy that snatched up that fifth starter spot.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
Not surprised, but I will say that, you know, Tony
was right there obviously until that little pick up in
the weight room set him back. But but Dustin earned it,
and Dustin's pitched really well for us and baseball. As
you guys watch baseball closely, things always seem to happen
(21:41):
when you got to make a roster decision and weather,
it's performance, it's an injury, and guys sort of slide
in and you're always tapping into your depth. So Tony's
going to be back soon enough. But but Dustin's looked
really good. I mean, it's it's gonna be excited to
get big Red back out there, and he's an uncomfortable
at bat and so I just hope he kind of
(22:04):
just takes this opportunity and runs with it.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Dave Roberts always great to catch up with him and
gracious enough to join us on the eve of the
big long trip to Japan. How fluid is the second
base and center field situation, Dave, And will it remain
fluid for some time?
Speaker 4 (22:21):
You think, I think it's going to remain fluid. You
know we're gonna send out Hayesong Kim. He's not gonna
break with us in Tokyo. God, he's a special young player.
There's some finishing school that he needs to kind of
take those at bats, log those at bats. I wouldn't
(22:44):
be surprised if he makes an impact at some point
in time this season or beyond. But you know, we
got tom Yedman who can play obviously short great spring,
James Aumans really come on with the fat lately, and
so obviously with kik At to play some second we
(23:08):
got Migi Row what you've seen in spring training take
some innings and second base all over the diamond. So
Petro's just got to be fluid. And so I think
one thing we do a good job. I do a
good job is trying to keep these guys relevant, keeping
guys rested, and so we're gonna have that's kind of
the blessing and the curse is having a lot of
(23:28):
good players. There's only you know, nine spots eight on
the diamond when you're playing defense, So guys are gonna
have to red and reacting like you said, it is
going to be fluid.
Speaker 5 (23:38):
Last thing for me, Dave, I don't mean to put
you on the spot if you if you don't have
an answer, understand. But I'm sure and full of our
listeners are gonna go and take this opportunity to maybe
take that trip they had always said they wanted to
take to Japan to Tokyo, maybe extended a little bit
and make their way around the whole country. But any
advice you would give them, like, hey, you've got to
do this. If you're gonna take that whatever it is,
(24:00):
twelve thirteen, fourteen hour flight over there.
Speaker 4 (24:04):
I think if you're going to go, certainly there's an
opportunity potentially to watch some of those exhibition games. I
hear tickets are hard to come by for those regular
season games. I would really recommend getting on the machine Consent,
which is the bullet train, and take it down to
Kyoto Osaka. Obviously, Tokyo's a couple of days in itself
(24:29):
to kind of get the landscape with Yokohama being next
to it. Great food, there's these goat kart things that
you can get a triple A license, international license that
you can ride on the streets on the wrong side
of the road. And that's fun. That's quite the experience.
But it's just such a great place with great food,
(24:52):
great culture, great people. It's safe, it's clean. It's definitely
a trip of a lifetime.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Could not be for a better guy and more fun.
Success story to watch unfold all these years from UCLA
till now, a big contract. Everybody's very pleased in a
historic trip, coming off a world series victory, heavily favored
for another one. A lot of work to be done, Dave.
We sure appreciate you. Thanks a lot for doing it,
(25:20):
Dave Roberts.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
Everybody, all right, fellows, thanks for having me on and
we'll see you soon, all.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Right, be safe about there. Thank you, David, and we'll
be back. Yeah's some text ossos.
Speaker 5 (25:34):
Matt, Hey, that Lucky Ducky's up on the internet.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
Yeah. I put it up and I invited everybody. But
you know, you know who didn't accept the uh? Is
that the station? Yeah, they've not accepted.
Speaker 5 (25:49):
Kates, go get your hands on that phone and accept it.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
Two collaborators have not accepted yet.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Thanks for coming on, Dave, really appreciate it.
Speaker 5 (25:56):
This is a drunk show, and we want our drunkenness
to be put on public display. Well we do.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
We'reort even drunk. We're trying to promote BJS.
Speaker 5 (26:04):
Geez right, everybody wants their lucky ducky.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Great sports talk.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
I'd recommend against it. Stay with us, everybody. We're gone
all the way till seven. Dave Roberts, Wonderful Stuff, Dodgers
in Tokyo, Big Story.

Brought to you by your so called Toyota dealers. We
make it easy.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Text USO's I have my wife listening to the Weekly
Bachelor Report, and now she likes that summary more than
the actual show. Yes, we can enjoy something else on
TV on Monday nights. She's picked up on some petros
and money Lingo. Whenever she's showing off her boobs, she
(28:50):
calls them boobly boobs.
Speaker 5 (29:00):
Why don't you show them to me?
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Come on, my wife? Fabulous podcasting the show from yesterday, pe,
it should be super easy to find that Canadian drug dealer.
He likes coke, he likes to shoot guns, he likes
the outdoors, and maybe country music pretty much RUMs in
the same circle as Red Steak Cats, Give me my
(29:22):
ten million, somebody else.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Some shows off cif Baseball.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
Everybody k somebody Else suggested that Matt and I go
interview the Canadian drug dealer who used to be an
Olympic snowboarder. Kind of like Sean Penn went and interviewed
El Chapo, and we could be like, what do you
dream about?
Speaker 5 (29:49):
Right? Put these velvet sack hoods on us at the
back of an suv. Drive us somewhere.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
Publishing in the Rolling Stars.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
Yeah, big, I mean modern day hunter resktops and I'll
get a cigarette with a little big plastic extenders.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
That's right, of course you will.
Speaker 5 (30:06):
Come on.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
Uh, does Ronnie sleep on a trampoline? People won't let
this go?
Speaker 5 (30:15):
These we can't.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
People don't want to let go the Ronnie and the
earthquake thing. Does Ronnie sleep on a trampoline?
Speaker 7 (30:32):
Perhaps it's time to replace my mattress?
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Uh? You bitches are acting like you never lived in
California when the normalcy of earthquakes are here. Good Lord,
p just go ahead and smoke your poles and move on.
Ronnie needs to go to Low's to make him feel
real safe, all right, guys, Like it's not our fault.
Kate's acted like a punk because his earthquake didn't get
enough coverage.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
Yeah, it wasn't a punk about the earthquake. He was
a punk about the news not covering it because it
was the Academy Awards.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
And Ronnie was called in question because he said during
how was your weekend or whatever about the earthquake, that
he was shaken out of bed, which some people thought
was wrong, but Ronnie did explain it. This text here says.
Speaker 8 (31:14):
Uh, the sect text does a fine brought to you
by your so called Toyota dealers. We make it easy.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Ronnie got shaken out of bed like Grandpa Joe and
Willie Walker. Were you wearing a night shirt, Ronnie, like
Wie Willie Winky with a with a hat and a candle?
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (31:33):
I had my uncle right across from me on the
other side of the bed with his feet in my face.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
Yeah, that is a little nice, kind of a rough
situation there that the Willy Walker. Yeah, terrible. How did
they go to the bathroom? Probably like everybody else, out
of their colo or their poozza or whatever. I beat.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
He couldn't even get out of bed.
Speaker 7 (31:50):
Poor Grandpa Joe. He coudn't even get out of bed.
You saw what he trying to walk around. He's olympian.
I would like you to look up what a chamber
pot is, Ronnie.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
Oh, yeah, that's what that thing.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (32:00):
Oh, Charlie had a rough go man.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
Oh, we do have an update, Matt on Pat Nixon.
You can see the Pat Nixon statue video on Instagram
on Amphi seventy or at Petros and Money. Her nickname
was Pat because her father, mister Ryan, was an Irishman
and she was born the day before Saint Patrick's Day,
which is.
Speaker 5 (32:21):
Colored we go, there, we go.
Speaker 3 (32:24):
Pat Nixon, a paragon of wifely virtue God.
Speaker 5 (32:30):
At least in the forty eight hours surrounding a Sorito's
appearance by the Petro.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
So wow, come on, Matt, dare you all right? Here
we go a couple of textosos here.
Speaker 8 (32:41):
The secret texts all fine, brought to you by your
so called Toyota dealers.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
We make it easy, Petro.
Speaker 3 (32:47):
Second time, long time here. I was at the remote
yesterday for the last two hours of the show. I
was there to see great sports talk and not the
Laker game because I hate the Lakers. And when Matt
read the ticket for the grand prize and that late
on the table in the front row one and screamed
out loud that she won, you could see the pain
in Matt's face. Yeah, and you could hear good she
(33:10):
had to say for everybody to hear I was the
second person here.
Speaker 5 (33:15):
Oh you know, feel free to sit the next one out.
I was so looking I sit the next one out.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
I was so loaded at the brewery X my lady
had to drive me home when I begged her to
go with me. And then I got home and did
a money on the couch in my ugly sweater. I
fell asleep. Tim Kate, it's a verb. Now, Tim Kate's
hating on Southwest and no more free bags. Only a
true Spirit Airlines flyer would be happy for that. At
least Southwest has seats to sit in and not on
(33:43):
your luggage like Spirit cats. All right, and those are
your textoses. We'll be right back. We got a whole
other hour of great sports talk, quick hits, fun fact.
That's the report dead in a live Guy Bert the
other day, Big Thinking to Dave Roberts and David Vas,

Speaker 2 (00:50):

Speaker 1 (00:53):
Maybe she had a huge nipple.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
No, I am a phoenix who runs after arsonists.
Speaker 5 (01:04):
Go on me Ukes, Petrosen Money Am five seventy LA
Sports Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app Another hour to Go,
two hours to go, actually our first hour in the books.
Following Dodger Baseball, they put it on The Guardians their
final spring training contest of the Camelback Ranch portion of
the exhibition season. A bit of an oddity for the
(01:28):
Dodgers for the second consecutive year they will play.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
It makes you wonder. I mean, maybe we'll ask Dave
Roberts about this when he joins us. Yeah, next t
It does make you wonder with the Dodgers playing back
to back years in East Asia and going to Korea
and going to Tokyo. I mean, of course, I'm sure
that they fully fulfilled their quota for having to go overseas.
(01:53):
You know, we talk about this in the NFL all
the time. You're going to Rio de Janeiro this year,
or excuse me, to San Paolo, Sao Paolo with the
with the Chargers this year. But uh, even if they've
fulfilled whatever it is is their their quota, is it
not advantageous for the Dodgers and Gougenheim with Otani and
(02:15):
I mean particularly you Otani and Yamamoto at two to
go to the Japan.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
And it's why, Yeah, it was so. I think for
people that just think it's a throwaway question and a
throwaway statement, no it's not.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
But they're going to go every year. I mean, is.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
That David Vasse saying that the players are excited about
this one? That's important? Right, because the players, so the
you know, the MLBPA is the most powerful player union
of any sport, and if they decide to do it
for a third year, they'd be like, no, well enough,
I get it. It's a global brand and everybody's going
to come out to see Otani and it helps push
the game. But you can't do this to the team
(02:51):
three years, they know. But the fact that the players
are into it and.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
They won the World Series this year. Yea, having gone
to Roria, now I know that Australian trip Blue Kershaw's
back out and it was a cautionary tale for many years.
But I mean, forgive me if I don't if I'm
wrong in saying this isn't this Tokyo trip brought to
you by Guggenheim. The whole thing is being sponsored Cubs
and Dodgers by the Guggenheim group that owns the Dodgers.
(03:17):
It is okay, So are they gonna They're gonna do
this every year? And why wouldn't they do it with
the team that they own, that has the number one
attraction on it. I mean, no one's gonna want to
go see the Brewers play the d Backs in Tokyo
they're gonna want to go see Otani.
Speaker 6 (03:31):
Well, if I can interject real quick, next year, they're
not doing this from what I understand, because it's the
World Baseball Classic year. Ah, so this will not happen
in twenty six. But after that, I'm sure they're gonna
go back. You have to say, right, maybe even longer
than two games. Make it a whole week of both, right,
making them off. Yes, March is brought to you by Guggenheim.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
It's the most populated city in the world. Let's get
out there.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
Some even think that it's a country.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
That was that was a slip of the tongue. We
ignored that it was a slip of the tongue. He knows,
how do we know?
Speaker 3 (04:06):
How do we know? I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
I mean how many times has he seen Karate Kid two?
David Vasse, Yeah, at least, But does he know that
Oki Nawa is an island?
Speaker 3 (04:17):
I don't.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
Yes, I think anything that was shared in Karate Kid
two about that particular part of the world island committed
to his memory.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Not even that sure.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
Well, Dave Roberts would say he was there this offseason
celebrating his World Series Championship he was.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
I mean, Dave Roberts is really the only Dodger that
and he's going to join us next.
Speaker 5 (04:41):
The smallest and the least populated of the five islands
of Japan.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Ok Now, Okay, so there you go. Uh, Dave Roberts
is the only Dodger to do the real victory lap.
You know what I'm saying right.
Speaker 5 (04:55):
As you like to call it the rubber chicken circuit.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Yeah, I mean, he really stretched his legs out and
did the circuit. Not everybody did. And I'm glad that
he did it because Dave Roberts, who could have even
been fired had the Dodgers blew it in the playoffs
last year. I mean, he'd been the scapegoat for quite
some time other than twenty twenty, and instead of that,
(05:19):
looks to be waltzing into the Hall of Fame because
of what happened against the Yankees and onward. So pretty interesting,
no doubt about it.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
Last year was his year. It was the postseason of
Dave the bullpen game against the Padres with his back
against the wall, seemingly making every right move as you said,
in the Yankees against the Yankees in the World Series,
and now he is the highest paid manager in baseball,
a position that David Vesse told us yesterday has been
wildly underpaid for the last well forever really until Craig
(05:55):
Council got that deal with the Cubs last year. So
congratulations to him for are passing Craig Council.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
All right, here's my number.
Speaker 5 (06:06):
Okay, your number of the day is nineteen dollars. So
I don't know if you've ever been confronted with this.
The one place I don't want to be upsold is
the airport.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Now, well, isn't that a place where you're often upsold
unless you're duty free.
Speaker 5 (06:27):
So here's the thing. Just assume I'm going to take
the double, and I would assume that that's the correct
approach for every traveler at the bar. Right, you're always
going to take the double. The great majority of folks
that are moving around are either doing it for work.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Well, the bartender tells you it's a better it's a
better deal to take the doubles, sir.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
So I'm not talking about the upsell of the double,
But pee, have you ever been upsold? I saw this
poor girl at the Long Beach Airport get upsold for
a nineteen dollars neck pillow that wasn't even for her.
There is a little basket on the counter that is
gifts for veterans, and they are going to send these
(07:11):
gifts overseas.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Oh, you buy the gift and it's really a grift. Yes,
here's I don't trust anymore.
Speaker 5 (07:20):
Yes, if there is one place you don't want to
do that, I am all for supporting our troops that
are stationed overseas. And I'm sure there are many charities
that you can investigate and donate to, and I would
certainly encourage that and I would be happy to do
it as well. Do not buy the ten dollars box
of skittles or the nineteen dollars neck pillow that this
(07:43):
poor girl who just wanted her freaking Dasani water and
Orbit pack of golf.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
She got upsold twenty bucks for.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
A neck pillow that was going to be sent to
the troops. And she's like, yeah, whatever, just grab something
out of there. Anything is fine. You know, this woman's
grabbing a neck pillow.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
And now there's people behind her. She doesn't know what
to do.
Speaker 5 (08:02):
So now she's like, wait a minute, my bill is
thirty five dollars now for water and to pack a
gum and a freaking pillow. Come on, it's just don't
do that. Don't feel pressured in. Nobody is gonna look
at you and think what a bad breath. There is
no negative karma in your plane is not going to
crash into a fireball because you didn't buy the neck
(08:22):
pillow for the veteran. And you want as much good
karma as you can before you fly at thirty seven
thousand feet in a tin can. That's not how it works.
Go ahead and donate another way, as opposed to the
incredibly marked up Hudson.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Use ideas ball.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
Now.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
I don't know, but it's in every airport now, it
is everywhere I fly. There is the basket of things
you can purchase that will be sent to troops stationed overseas.
And it's a collection of candies and beef jerky and
neck pillows and books and all that crap. And I
have no idea how they came up with this scam,
(08:57):
but I can promise you that's exactly what it is,
and don't fall for it, especially if you believe it
has something to do with your karma. On the flight
you're about to board.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Well, I mean, you can't tell people what to believe, Matt.
It's an issue of faith, real question, the word of
the day. I should I'm remiss to not mention this, Matt.
Eddie George got the job at Bowling Green. Now, why
are we interested in Bowling Green? First of all, we
are your maction show of record, not close, not even close.
(09:29):
And Eddie George, former friend of the show, used to
join us every week. I used to work with him,
a whole bunch in studio at Fox. And a Heisman
winner and just a wonderful guy NFL Hall of Fame
type and a great Heisman Trophy winner at Ohio State,
as we said, And he was coaching at Tennessee State,
took over a struggling program, won eight games last year,
(09:51):
and he's been hired at Bowling Green. Why do we care?
Two reasons? Two great Bowling Green, falcon a lums right,
Oral Herscheizer, who just had hip surgery. That's why Eric
Carross is going to Tokyo, and we wish everybody luck,
and we hope Oral feels better, and we wish him
(10:12):
a swift recovery. And Tim Conway Junior ding Dong Ding
Dong indeed another bowling greener, go Falcons. Let's go Eddie George. Now,
Michael Vick got a job too, right he did. Yeah?
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Yes, I was supposed to be Sack State, but instead
Sack State hired Norfolk State. Right, Norfolk State.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Yeah, sax State hired Brennan Marion, who was the offensive
coordinator at UNLV. Maybe a little bit more proven offensive
guy than Michael Vick. Just as far as calling plays, Yes,
that's all I would say.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
Norfolk State University Athletics. Let's go the Mishima, Let's go Minuteman.
Speaker 7 (10:58):
The song of the day, The Drive is the title
of our song of the Day from a duo out
of the Borough of Brooklyn called The Widow's Peak. Because
the Petros and Money Show has taken over Afternoon Drive
on your AM radio following Spring training Dodger Baseball, where
the flashing beacon of gorey A Sports Talk will safely
(11:20):
guide you into the Bruins Insiders Show with Brian Fenley
as UCLA prepares for the Big ten tournament that I'm
sure we'll hear all about at seven o'clock.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Spartans Man, Spartans, Spartans.
Speaker 5 (11:32):
There we go, our poach State Spartans.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
We'll be right back with more great sports talk. It
will be Dave Roberts, Dodger skipper, celebrating a historic contract
and on the precipice of a historic trip.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
No great sports talk.
Speaker 5 (12:03):
Go until seven pm. Brwin Insider will come up after that,
and speaking of the Bruins, double by for their inaugural
run in the Big Ten Tournament. The Lady Bruins already
won the Big Ten Women's Basketball Tournament. Mc cronin and
his male Bruins. We'll try to do the same beginning
on Friday. You'll hear that right here eleven thirty am
(12:23):
Tip on AM five seventy LA Sports not only your
home of the Bruins, but your home of the Dodgers
as well.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Matt, What a wonderful year and off season for this
man who's been so gracious to us for so long,
whether things are up or down, always available and gracious
to the radio show and to the fans. Two time
World Series champion signed a four year contract extension with
(12:52):
the Dodgers that runs through twenty twenty nine. It is
a lucrative contract. I'd say he's gonna up the quality
of the red stitch one, but the quality is so
high that the ceiling is cat on the precipice of
a great and historic trip to a place that is
meaningful to his own history. The Great Dave Roberts on
(13:15):
your Southern California Toyota Dealer Celebrity Hotline. What a day
to be talking to the Skipper, Dave. Congratulations first and foremost,
and thank you so much for joining us today, guys.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
I am so grateful to be on with you guys. Finally,
it was probably the worst kept secret the last few days,
but I just couldn't be more excited to know, you know,
looking out for the next five years, I'm gonna be
with the Dodgers and you know, planning and planning on
winning a few more championships.
Speaker 5 (13:51):
Was it at all stressful, Dave? I know it. You know,
for those people listening in fans and stuff, it's kind
of hard for them to relate. It's such a great gig.
You're the skipper of the Dodge, but you're also part
of a group of managers that look out for each
other and you want to kind of make sure you're
viewed the right way you should be viewed. And you're
sort of the guy that everybody was looking to to
try to set a tone for for what you do
(14:13):
and how important this job is and how you should
be compensated.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
You know what, that's that's actually there. That's there's some
truth to that, certainly, and like most things, it's bigger
than yourself. Obviously. The most important thing is, you know,
what was good for for my my wife, my family.
We wanted to be here. I made no I didn't
hide that at all. The organization felt the same way.
(14:39):
And it's uh, I'm just happy that I had my agent,
you know, John Boggs kind of hand to all that stuff.
But there is something too that where there's comparables in
kind of sports and and work and and the work world, right,
and so uh, that's a little bit part of it. Ultimately,
this is a place I wanted to be and everyone
knew that.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
The One and only Dave Roberts, our guest, we talked
about the trip to Japan. I know there's a lot
of emotions going on, and I mean, we can't put
ourselves in your shoes. We can imagine what a great
thing it is to be an MLB player and then coach,
and then what it is to be the manager of
the Dodgers. My god, but now you start looking at
(15:21):
the history your career, Dave, You've you've managed these guys
in Australia, uh in uh in in Korea. Uh you're
taking them to Japan. Uh it's just Mexico. I mean,
this is what's it? I mean, do you have perspective
on what these trips mean? Uh? Are you able to
do that in the moment? Or is it all business?
Speaker 4 (15:44):
You know what it's It's pretty it's pretty much all business.
There's a little bit of play. But I will say,
and I think you guys know me pretty well, and
I just think that uh, you know, on the first level,
it's it's for the players, the coaches logistically, but I
think that overall, our guys just really understand that it's
(16:07):
bigger than them. And for the Dodgers to be able
to go to whether it's Australia, Mexico, Soul, Korea and
then Tokyo, Japan, I mean there's Dodger jerseys and hats
and you know, uniforms all over the world and that's
pretty special. So to be able to go with the Dodgers,
(16:28):
it's a trip of a lifetime.
Speaker 5 (16:30):
What are the just logistically challenges and why you set
it up the way you do when you start spring training,
and how much planning has to go into making sure
these guys are right for those two games for spring
training and when you come back to get things rolling
on the twenty seventh of March.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Logistically was tougher last year because it was the first
time we had done it as far as Asia, and
so now if you look at kind of and we
got through it came back in a good spot. There
wasn't as much jet lag, and our guys are the
player performance guys do such a good job as well
as when we sleep hitting you know, compression flocks and
(17:11):
fins like to stay up or to rest well, and
so that part is easy. And thankfully our players money
are smart and they came into camp ready to go,
and so building up the pitchers was pretty easy. The
position player side. You know, I was talking to Taska
and then is today and he's like, we just feel
(17:33):
like four weeks were ready to go, and then to
play two games there to come back to the exhibitions
and there shouldn't be much kind of grogginess jet lag,
and we'll be ready for the Tigers for the home
opener for.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
You guys, do you have to set the team aside
and talk about just how crazy it's going to be
out there as far as the amount of people and
and and all of that stuff logistically or is that
something that just kind of takes care of itself.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
Well, you know what, I think our security team major
League Baseball, they do a good job kind of prepping
everyone and keeping us safe. But a little bird said
that there's going to be close to a million fans
to greet us when we land. I don't know how
truth that is true that is, but I mean that's
(18:22):
just it's gonna be bananas. And so I would like
to be showhy in a lot of capacities. But going
back to Tokyo, I do not want to be sho
hey Otani what uh.
Speaker 5 (18:34):
You know, it's it's Otani, it's Yamamoto. And man, what
an outing by Sasaki today? What's going on there? Like
he gets in games and this is not sort of
the thing they've been hearing about from rookie Sasaki and
kind of you guys working through it with him and
trying to get him right. He looked like he was
mowing everything down in his way. Today.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
He looks so good. I mean it was pretty effortless today.
I think if you guys listen to me, I just
didn't want him to and people to feel that he's
gonna be you know, Heydeo Nomo coming over here as
Hedeo was an older guy, a seasoned veteran coming over
to the States, and you know, there's some finishing schools
that meets up with Roki and so he's super talented.
(19:16):
He's had a great spring, but there's still a learning
trip that needs happened. But yeah, you know, to be
able to go to Japan and have those three guys,
you know, on our club, it's gonna be special. And
as you know, Mark Walter and Andrew Friedman, we want
to paint the country of Japan blue. And I think
we've done that.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
You got to build your roster kind of twice here
for this trip and then kind of again for the reset,
like you talked about for the Tigers and opening day
and all that. Going through a spring a week early
and all that is that is that harder. Did you
build the roster today the way you kind of wanted
to and the way you foresaw it.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
It's a little tricky we've got two exhibition games there
against a couple of Japanese teams, one being the Tokyo Giants,
which is like the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball,
and then you've got two real games against the Cups.
And so Major League Baseball only allows us to take
(20:19):
thirty one players. And so there are players in the
fact that like, for example, Dustin May, who's going to
be our fifth starter. And we had a hard conversation
with Dustin that we had to keep him back here
in Arizona so he can build up for his start
against the Braves, I think, in that second series, and
so he couldn't you know, take part in this trip
(20:41):
and other guys like that, and we just couldn't take Evan.
We're pitcher heavy because we got to, you know, guard
against pitchers not totally being built up. So there's a
little you know, gymnastic roster gymnastics to go.
Speaker 5 (20:54):
With that stick on that day with Dustin May, and
were you at all? I always take using the word
surprise because you guys know kind of exactly where these
guys are, but just kind of take us through what
you saw from him in spring training, what you expected
him from him in spring training and how he ended up.
You know, Nyalen, I know Tony Gonsolin is going to
(21:15):
start on the IL, but just how he was the
guy that snatched up that fifth starter spot.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
Not surprised, but I will say that, you know, Tony
was right there obviously until that little pick up in
the weight room set him back. But but Dustin earned it,
and Dustin's pitched really well for us and baseball. As
you guys watch baseball closely, things always seem to happen
(21:41):
when you got to make a roster decision and weather,
it's performance, it's an injury, and guys sort of slide
in and you're always tapping into your depth. So Tony's
going to be back soon enough. But but Dustin's looked
really good. I mean, it's it's gonna be excited to
get big Red back out there, and he's an uncomfortable
at bat and so I just hope he kind of
(22:04):
just takes this opportunity and runs with it.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Dave Roberts always great to catch up with him and
gracious enough to join us on the eve of the
big long trip to Japan. How fluid is the second
base and center field situation, Dave, And will it remain
fluid for some time?
Speaker 4 (22:21):
You think, I think it's going to remain fluid. You
know we're gonna send out Hayesong Kim. He's not gonna
break with us in Tokyo. God, he's a special young player.
There's some finishing school that he needs to kind of
take those at bats, log those at bats. I wouldn't
(22:44):
be surprised if he makes an impact at some point
in time this season or beyond. But you know, we
got tom Yedman who can play obviously short great spring,
James Aumans really come on with the fat lately, and
so obviously with kik At to play some second we
(23:08):
got Migi Row what you've seen in spring training take
some innings and second base all over the diamond. So
Petro's just got to be fluid. And so I think
one thing we do a good job. I do a
good job is trying to keep these guys relevant, keeping
guys rested, and so we're gonna have that's kind of
the blessing and the curse is having a lot of
(23:28):
good players. There's only you know, nine spots eight on
the diamond when you're playing defense, So guys are gonna
have to red and reacting like you said, it is
going to be fluid.
Speaker 5 (23:38):
Last thing for me, Dave, I don't mean to put
you on the spot if you if you don't have
an answer, understand. But I'm sure and full of our
listeners are gonna go and take this opportunity to maybe
take that trip they had always said they wanted to
take to Japan to Tokyo, maybe extended a little bit
and make their way around the whole country. But any
advice you would give them, like, hey, you've got to
do this. If you're gonna take that whatever it is,
(24:00):
twelve thirteen, fourteen hour flight over there.
Speaker 4 (24:04):
I think if you're going to go, certainly there's an
opportunity potentially to watch some of those exhibition games. I
hear tickets are hard to come by for those regular
season games. I would really recommend getting on the machine Consent,
which is the bullet train, and take it down to
Kyoto Osaka. Obviously, Tokyo's a couple of days in itself
(24:29):
to kind of get the landscape with Yokohama being next
to it. Great food, there's these goat kart things that
you can get a triple A license, international license that
you can ride on the streets on the wrong side
of the road. And that's fun. That's quite the experience.
But it's just such a great place with great food,
(24:52):
great culture, great people. It's safe, it's clean. It's definitely
a trip of a lifetime.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Could not be for a better guy and more fun.
Success story to watch unfold all these years from UCLA
till now, a big contract. Everybody's very pleased in a
historic trip, coming off a world series victory, heavily favored
for another one. A lot of work to be done, Dave.
We sure appreciate you. Thanks a lot for doing it,
(25:20):
Dave Roberts.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
Everybody, all right, fellows, thanks for having me on and
we'll see you soon, all.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Right, be safe about there. Thank you, David, and we'll
be back. Yeah's some text ossos.

Speaker 3 (29:01):
Come on, my wife? Fabulous podcasting the show from yesterday, pe,
it should be super easy to find that Canadian drug dealer.

the outdoors, and maybe country music pretty much RUMs in
the same circle as Red Steak Cats, Give me my
(29:22):
ten million, somebody else.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Some shows off cif Baseball.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
Everybody k somebody Else suggested that Matt and I go
interview the Canadian drug dealer who used to be an
Olympic snowboarder. Kind of like Sean Penn went and interviewed
El Chapo, and we could be like, what do you
dream about?
Speaker 5 (29:49):
Right? Put these velvet sack hoods on us at the
back of an suv. Drive us somewhere.
Speaker 3 (29:56):

Speaker 5 (30:15):
These we can't.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
People don't want to let go the Ronnie and the
earthquake thing. Does Ronnie sleep on a trampoline?
Speaker 7 (30:32):
Perhaps it's time to replace my mattress?
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Uh? You bitches are acting like you never lived in
California when the normalcy of earthquakes are here. Good Lord,
p just go ahead and smoke your poles and move on.
Ronnie needs to go to Low's to make him feel
real safe, all right, guys, Like it's not our fault.
Kate's acted like a punk because his earthquake didn't get
enough coverage.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
Yeah, it wasn't a punk about the earthquake. He was
a punk about the news not covering it because it
was the Academy Awards.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
And Ronnie was called in question because he said during
how was your weekend or whatever about the earthquake, that
he was shaken out of bed, which some people thought
was wrong, but Ronnie did explain it. This text here says.
Speaker 8 (31:14):
Uh, the sect text does a fine brought to you
by your so called Toyota dealers. We make it easy.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Ronnie got shaken out of bed like Grandpa Joe and
Willie Walker. Were you wearing a night shirt, Ronnie, like
Wie Willie Winky with a with a hat and a candle?
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (31:33):
I had my uncle right across from me on the
other side of the bed with his feet in my face.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
Yeah, that is a little nice, kind of a rough
situation there that the Willy Walker. Yeah, terrible. How did
they go to the bathroom? Probably like everybody else, out
of their colo or their poozza or whatever. I beat.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
He couldn't even get out of bed.
Speaker 7 (31:50):
Poor Grandpa Joe. He coudn't even get out of bed.
You saw what he trying to walk around. He's olympian.
I would like you to look up what a chamber
pot is, Ronnie.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
Oh, yeah, that's what that thing.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (32:00):
Oh, Charlie had a rough go man.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
Oh, we do have an update, Matt on Pat Nixon.
You can see the Pat Nixon statue video on Instagram
on Amphi seventy or at Petros and Money. Her nickname
was Pat because her father, mister Ryan, was an Irishman
and she was born the day before Saint Patrick's Day,
which is.
Speaker 5 (32:21):
Colored we go, there, we go.
Speaker 3 (32:24):
Pat Nixon, a paragon of wifely virtue God.
Speaker 5 (32:30):
At least in the forty eight hours surrounding a Sorito's
appearance by the Petro.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
So wow, come on, Matt, dare you all right? Here
we go a couple of textosos here.
Speaker 8 (32:41):
The secret texts all fine, brought to you by your
so called Toyota dealers.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
We make it easy, Petro.
Speaker 3 (32:47):
Second time, long time here. I was at the remote
yesterday for the last two hours of the show. I
was there to see great sports talk and not the
Laker game because I hate the Lakers. And when Matt
read the ticket for the grand prize and that late
on the table in the front row one and screamed
out loud that she won, you could see the pain
in Matt's face. Yeah, and you could hear good she
(33:10):
had to say for everybody to hear I was the
second person here.
Speaker 5 (33:15):
Oh you know, feel free to sit the next one out.
I was so looking I sit the next one out.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
I was so loaded at the brewery X my lady
had to drive me home when I begged her to
go with me. And then I got home and did
a money on the couch in my ugly sweater. I
fell asleep. Tim Kate, it's a verb. Now, Tim Kate's
hating on Southwest and no more free bags. Only a
true Spirit Airlines flyer would be happy for that. At
least Southwest has seats to sit in and not on
(33:43):
your luggage like Spirit cats. All right, and those are
your textoses. We'll be right back. We got a whole
other hour of great sports talk, quick hits, fun fact.
That's the report dead in a live Guy Bert the
other day, Big Thinking to Dave Roberts and David Vas,
