Hopeful music at New.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
And on a time of the lies Tuesday, on a
racist Tuesday, on a.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
That's why I got the vanilla protein today instead of
the chocolate peanut which peanut butter, which I typically favor. Well, yeah,
but I grabbed the vanilla. I didn't know why. I
was like, why am I taking Milla? You know why?
Speaker 4 (02:47):
Because you're celebrating racist Tuesday. That's why all makes sense now.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Subconsciously, I can't help myself.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
We have David Vassa, who was not utilized by the
show before us today, even though the Dodgers really dribbled
it down their leg last night.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Well, there was breaking news. That's why Petross big NBA
news that needed to be covered first.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Well, I mean, I don't think they needed to do
twenty five minutes with fully functional employee at him with
his bionic.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
He How long did they really do? Like, if we
were to make an honest assessment, how long did they
really do on.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
My twenty five minutes?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Byes?
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Twenty five minutes? They did the Mike Malone Denver Nuggets story. Now,
I don't want to make a whole thing out of
it too, We're not doing the Michael Malone story. I
don't want to get all riled up about it. But
they did the story for twenty five here right now.
I mean, if I have to ask Ronnie to verify,
I'll do it right now, don't tempt me to ask
(03:50):
Ronnie to verify and make Ronnie open his mic or
his voice is twice as loud as any of ours.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
And hey money, how long did they do on the
Michael Malone.
Speaker 6 (03:58):
Twenty five minutes, twenty five seconds short of the twenty
five mark.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Okay, three spot on there.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
P told you, it's like you were sitting there listening
to them.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
I was why there's a reason why Petros has that
Brightling watch with like the nine different dials on the face,
with the different stop watches, and a chronograph.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
And two different glow in the dark features man green
and gold.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
And it's got the sun that shows when the sun's
out in the moon that shows.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
And I tested my Brightling at four hundred feet below
under the water. And when I do my scuba, when
I well, you know, what I like to do is
really long fins and your free dive. Yeah, I free
dive shipwrecks. So what I like to do is get
over a reck site and then I just free dive
and I do marine salvage, you know that's right. And
(04:57):
without that, without my marine sound h side career, I
don't think I could afford the lifestyle that I live Matt. No,
without my brightling watch, I don't think I could do
my marine salve.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
You'd be dead.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
So good stuff, Matt.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
You knew it was twenty five minutes exactly, and I said, no,
he's embellishing. It must be an exaggeration. Is that possible?
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Did you find my Did you find MYDA balloons?
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Matt?
Speaker 4 (05:22):
How did you find out about my secret free dive life?
Speaker 3 (05:25):
I know these things?
Speaker 4 (05:26):
You found my money, my dried out sponges and my
DOA balloons?
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Well it's your secret Instagram page. Oh marine reck free dive.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
Blooner.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Yeah, that's you.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
B was a Spanish Armanda ship.
Speaker 7 (05:44):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Look, Tim Kates is also into the vanilla today. Check
your text, Matt, check your ear. Creek greeky overt vanilla bean.
Tim Kates tell you that I still went with my
dark black coffee. I don't know what that says.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
There's some good probiotics in their cakes for your gut,
That's what I've heard. The Greek yogurt. That's why I
get it.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
Health probiotics like the soda that your wife and daughter
bought Matt to have around the house. Stupid poppy at
three dollars a pop.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Yeah, with ten thousand microbiomes. It promotes gut half. You
give me a diet coke.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Yesterday, you know, we were freaking.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Poppy and sticking in your ass.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
We were off early. We were off work early yesterday.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
A shark tank success story. Shut up.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
I had the opportunity to pick up my kids from
school and I was like, you know, I think i'll
do something nice. I'll go buy the market here and
get them a soda. And I'm looking at the sodas
and I was like, oh, all these are so bad
for you, but what about this poppies.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
It's a healthy soda. No, it's up.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
I bought them a couple of poppies, and when I
gave it to them, the price tags are still on them.
They're like, damn dad, three dollars.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Well it's healthy soda.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
And I said, look, it's gotta I thought of you man.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
I said, look, it's got probio probiotics.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Kids, you're paying the probiotics there, kids, that's what is.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Gonna health, the the gut gut health there, that's what
it's gonna do. It's carbonated water and artificial flavors. No,
it's not, it's really.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
No, it's not. It's different, Matt. You don't understand. You
don't understand the artisanal. You talk your Rteasonal beer and
your Teasonal coffee, Matt, with all that wind in your chest,
but you don't have a finger on the pulse of
the artisanal soda world. You are not.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
I did drink a beer that was called Elvis Juice
last night. That's what we're doing. What are we doing?
Speaker 4 (07:42):
That sounds awesome, That's what I said.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
I was like, anybody can make an I p a. Now,
apparently they decided to title this one Elba's Juice, and
it's worthy of packaging and being put in the corner
of liquor store here in Seal Beach. So here we go.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
I want my ipa to be really really, really really
cold so I don't have to taste it because it's
so growl.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
What did it taste like? Bacon, peanut butter? It is delicious.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Well, we're happy to be on early today, on this
time of the lines, Tuesday, and it is a sad
day for Dodger fans. As anybody who thought this Dodger
team was just going to high step undefeated through the
season read right into the curly Doves thing. Hey, hey, Red,
(08:28):
what the curly Doves took it to the Dodgers. That guy,
McKenzie Gore with two last names for his whole name,
just carved the Dodgers up.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
That gets good, man, that's the Padres guy they traded
for Won Soto. That mackenzie Gore. It's an interesting name.
Sounds like an actress from Facts of Life, but it's not.
It's a young pitcher. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
Don't think I didn't get a call from Dale Jeremiah
in the bottom of the third yesterday. Hey, you're welcome
for what he goes Kensey Gore he was a Padre
one time. No, he's taking it to the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
And it felt like even though he's like a young
guy he could pitch in the elements cold night.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
In DC didn't seem to affect him one bit.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
No, he was buckling knees and not saying please, Mookie Bets.
A shortstop is a national abomination. It's worse than the five.
It's a civic.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
Failure, man, it is a civic failure. Uh.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
And the Dodgers defense was pathetic. Tim Kates was all angry.
I mean, it was just an overall terrible night, even
though shoe a Otani was a triple away or a
double away from hitting for the cycle, and the Dodgers
did battle back. But Matt, I mean, what a difference
a weekend makes. We're not talking about We're not talking
(09:53):
about undefeated anymore. The Dodgers are in third place in
the WAT.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
They are in third place. They've lost three of four.
They may have the worst defense in all of baseball.
An experiment or a placation of a particular personality seems
to be the center if you were to identify a root,
cause I do believe that root would be signaled by
(10:17):
the number six on your scorecard. That would be my guess.
Speaker 7 (10:22):
Well, let's hear it gives you a good chance to
get in the ground. Ball towards second, back handed and
kicked by Rojas. Bets picks it up on trying to score.
He will Is, He ducks around Will smith.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Is.
Speaker 7 (10:35):
This has been Keystone cops for the Dodgers. Here in
the second in it gets two nothing nationalists.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
I was thinking the other side of the infield, but
that one was bad too. Rojas, you loser.
Speaker 7 (10:46):
Here's the only one pitch and this Paul Is hit
on the ground past Mookie Betts and in the left
field rounding third is too young.
Speaker 4 (10:54):
He's coming to the plate. Throw it the third and
the man a third is out. Just a terrible knight,
Just a terrible knight.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
All use to May. Doesn't deserve that man.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Come on, Yeah, he looked a little wobbly early, but
he pulled it off. And that's saved the Dodger bullpen
because the Dodger bullpen has been worn out hard in
the last couple nights because Roki Sasaki. I mean, these
guys don't pitch that long and smell Zilla's out now,
I mean all this high stepping that was going on.
Look at us now, Matt, look what's happened. That's why
(11:32):
you don't get out in front and start waving your
arms around and acted all crazy and saying the Dodger's
gonna be going defeated.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Am I supposed to know that a former MVP and
World Series MVP is going to be so demanding to
play a position where clearly he is not ready to play,
and it's gonna lead to Dustin May throwing too many
paint and like you said, walk those guys early settled
in eleven consecutive outs, and what's he'd get? Hard luck loser.
(12:00):
That's what that guy gets without earned runs. One earned
run and a loss is what that guy gets after
six innings. And it happened in his last outing too.
Who was it Munsey? Who was it that blew the
last last outing for him? Tim or Pe remind me?
Was that Munsey that had the bad error?
Speaker 2 (12:18):
That?
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Yes, Monsey did have an error.
Speaker 7 (12:21):
This has been Keystone cops for the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Here, yes it has, Tim Nevertt.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
He don't cash this, says, hey Petros. The Dodgers are
in third place. Why haven't they fired Dave Roberts. That's
a great question.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
I think they just gave him an extension, As a
matter of fact, made him the ice paid manager in
the league.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
Big freaking mistake. Look at where they are now, take miss.
They are in third place right now, and we're like,
right at the beginning of April. How are they going
to recover for this? Matt?
Speaker 3 (12:51):
I think they got enough time to dig out of
this hole.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
I hope so.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
I feel like they do. I mean, some adjustments will
be coming.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
Look at this, here's a text, Matt, with your optimistic talk.
I'm catching up on the podcast listening to Smith wax
poetic about one hundred and sixty two and oh, just
last Thursday and now just a few days later, the
Dodgers are farting all over themselves on the field, and
there are already calls for the panic brothers. What a
(13:20):
difference a weekend makes, doesn't it?
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Though?
Speaker 4 (13:24):
Are you saying that we should hit the panic button?
Are you saying we should bet? I mean, I don't.
Do you think Mookie Betts will hear the panic button
and remove himself from the shortstop position.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
I think that'd be the right thing for him to do,
recognize his limitations and perhaps manning the most demanding defensive
spot on the field. Is it necessarily what he's cut
out for at this particular time.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
Here's another text. Did the Dodgers beat themselves last night?
As Matt and Keates would say, where's Matt's positivity?
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Now? Oh god, I'm not panicked about anything. You know
who they're taking on tonight? What the almighty guy by
the name of Lord does not bode well for them?
Speaker 4 (14:14):
Is it Jack Lord's grandson? It's Hits Lord himself. Let
me tell be able to hit his curveball. Let me
tell you a story about Jack lud sobbing at elevator
W's and I said, Book of Daddoh, and he looks
straight into my eyes and he said.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
F you, those are the good stories. This gentleman's name
is Brad Lord. And Lord, yeah, it appears as though
he is a bit of a opener.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Lord v Robleski. Is Robleski gonna open open open like
Mervin's or is he gonna like try to go as
long as he's.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
Gonna try to go as long as he can.
Speaker 5 (14:49):
He's not an opener today, by the way, Brad Lord,
you know what he's most known for, being the Lord. Well,
besides being the Lord, guy works at a home deep
on the season because he was such a minor league
prospect that they didn't think much of. Didn't make a
lot of money in the signing bonus. It was in
the minor leagues the last two years, just kind of
fledgling in Double A and A ball. He had a
(15:09):
great spring this year and made the major league roster somehow.
But the guy works at home depot to make a living.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
I'm gonna keep my job at home depot, so saith
the Lord.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
You know what they got at home depot. They had
a lot of stuff you could doctor that ball with.
You know, a lot of sandpaper, nice twenty grit sandpaper.
Maybe you know, you got a little bit of texture
paint you can maybe throw there. I mean a lot
of action you get on that ball.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
Working depot almost like that stuff's not available to everybody.
You gotta work there, well, Matt. The Panic Brothers had
made their first appearance of the season. I haven't been
this panic since I free dove the truck, Lagoon and Micronesia.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
I stared danger in the face that day.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
They called me free diving.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
P came in mammal form. Yeah, this is not good, man,
They're at third place. This is not cool.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Yeah, what are we gonna do?
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Freak out? Man.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
Should have never listened to a guy that was, you know,
acting all cool about things, saying our troubles are over.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
I didn't know the road was gonna be such a hoover,
no smooth road, clear day.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
Why am I the only person traveling this way?
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Slun day yesterday? You know?
Speaker 4 (16:23):
Could it be we're headed in the wrong direction? Could
there be a detour ahead? Word number song coming up

Speaker 4 (19:05):
They're already selling for one hundred and fifty dollars on eBay.
It's a Lebron Barbie doll with a blue LJ letterman's jacket,
the LJ standing for Lebron James Lemon Yang and a
hat with a crown on it, reminding you and us
(19:26):
that he is the King. A Bear Bryant style hounds
tooth pattern on his slacks, a man purse, cross shoulder
sling amrse and the bushy Egyptian pharaoh style beard, and
(19:47):
of course Lebron shoes that match the Lebron letterman's jacket
byes Man. This is the first Barbie Ken male athlete release.
There was a Venus Williams, there was Australian soccer star
(20:07):
Mary Fowler. Those are the other athletes who Mattel has
made Barbie dolls for. But this is the first male athlete.
The Lebron James Ken Ambassador doll now on the back
of the box, it says it represents hope and pride
(20:29):
for the city of Akron and the world beyond. The
Akron Beacon Journal loves this. So get yourself to the
cabbage Patch kid Frenzy or the Tickle Me Elmo or
(20:52):
Furbie's or whatever it is that everybody's into now. I
just I don't even think it exists anymore. You don't
have to work at the store like Lord to have
access to all the stuff anymore, but you can get
nailed by the King in dull form. What could be better?
And I know you're fixated on the hairline, Matt, but
(21:14):
you gotta love that man purse.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
I mean, wow, letterman's jacket, man purse. What looks to
be like a berbery plaid pant that.

Speaker 4 (21:35):
The man purse is the real chef's kiss. I don't
know why he doesn't have like a side special container
like YETI container for wine or anything.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
But sunglasses in hand, like you said, the crown cap
to let you know. I thought maybe there was salt
and pepper and the beard. I think that's just the
reflection of the light.
Speaker 4 (21:58):
I thought originally when I saw it, I thought it
was salt and pepper on the beard. But it turns
out to be a sheen off, that bushy feyro beard,
a sheene.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
We got to get one of these dolls for the station,

give me a week, and then tell me I've got
an exclusive twenty percent discoun on your next edition of
Progressional Chords. I'm on the guitar.
Speaker 4 (25:09):
Wow, you know I Once you learn one progression, you
want to get to the neck.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
I mean, my God. And by the way, Athletic, I
pay you, unlike everybody else at the station that steals
the subscription, I actually pay you.
Speaker 4 (25:21):
I love that Athletic. I mean, I love these articles.
I love the look.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
I love the sleek look. I love it.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
I love popping the tabs and clicking the things.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
You know what, I don't love Sports Connections. It sucks.
It's a stupid game, and you're not It's stop trying
to make fetch happen. Sports Connections is not going to happen.
So stop emailing me every day to ask if I've
played Sports Connections and then sending me a secondary email
that says click here for hints on Sports Connections. Nobody
needs a hint. It's the easiest freaking game on Earth.
(25:54):
Stop already, bad business man, bad busy.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
You want to report them to the Bad Business Bureau
the BBB.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
That's right, I'm going to the BBB and you're getting
an f I'm being harrissed. I don't like being harissed.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
I think that's how companies make money. You know, they
latch onto your data. I mean you understand you use
the word algorithm all the time.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
I mean you know what, I subscribe from everything.
Speaker 4 (26:20):
Yeah, you got to hit stop. But when when Mother's
Day or Christmas or all that comes around, they override
your stop and they punch you right in the face.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Oh. You know who's the worst at my wife? She
unsubscribes from nothing. She's got like nineteen thousand emails.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
I'm like, how do you live in such a dirty
house of What are you doing in the house of usher?
Speaker 3 (26:44):
How do you how do you find? Why don't you
clean that up? I can't I'm buried in spam. I
can't get up from.
Speaker 4 (26:51):
Under it now, Matt, I did forget two things. The
just a kid from Akron is in Plaze and on
the back of the James Letterman jacket that he's on.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
The back of the jacket, on the.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
Doll Yeah, and there's a couple special Easter egg ones
with a Malcolm X book that has not been opened.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Right, this is the song of the day.
Speaker 8 (27:23):
Today's song of the day is called two for Tuesday
from a band called rocket Ship Park because the Petros
and Money shows on your AM radio for a real
two for Tuesday super Flex alert with the Dodgers in
our nation's capital getting ready for Game two at Nationals Park,
with Tim Kats warming up in the bullpen, getting ready
for that Morongo's Casino Dodgers on Deck program that's coming
(27:45):
up shortly.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
What are you Runny?
Speaker 4 (27:49):
What a poll, Ronnie? Rocket Ship Park is in Torrence,
at least the one I know of.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
I wonder where this band.
Speaker 6 (27:57):
Is from a Long Island, New York.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
I believe, all right, well they must have some connection.
I guess there's more than one rocket Ship Park.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
What are you guys gonna learn? What are you gonna learn?
Speaker 4 (28:16):
I'm just wondering.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
I'm sitting I'm sitting here in silence. Gates don't say,
don't include me in this.
Speaker 4 (28:22):
Yeah, well, I don't want to come back to the
next segment with two bleeding nuves for him. We'll be
right back with your Dead and a Life guy. Birthday
of the Day.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
Tomorrow Late show today in early show, So two Dodger
games between now, when we sign off at the bottom
of two o'clock hour and when we will return somewhere
in the five o'clock hour tomorrow. Today's first pitch three
forty five pm Clippers on our sister station, AM eleven fifty.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
Well, Matt, this week you've had the Killogg legacy, but
we also have La Riding legends. Yes, today we will
deal with John Fanta Los Angeles Royalty. Maybe our best.
But like Don Martin from Denver. Born in Denver, devout
(29:16):
Italian Catholic dad was a gambler and a bricklayer. Went
to Regis High School and then briefly to the University
of Colorado, but dropped out hitchhike to La to write.
He was discovered by literary superstar after multiple attempts at
(29:37):
failing literary superstar, HL Menkin found John Fanta, but he
was living in a flophouse and writing Bunker Hill in
nineteen thirties Los Angeles, and he wrote his first novel
with Menkin's help, creating his literary persona Italian an American
(30:00):
poor novelist from Colorado, Arturo Bandini. You can't talk to
me like that. I'm Arturo Bandini. His second novel is
his best known, Ask the Dust, which is widely considered
to be the LA novel Main Street, Pershing Square, Downtown
(30:27):
Poor LA poet protagonist Colin Ferrell, tried to make a
movie with Samahaya years back. What little art movie mother?
They made it? I should say he tried to make
a movie. People watched Gotcha? I watched it? Who am
I La? Nineteen thirty Nine's asked the Dust is the
(30:48):
book and it should be in the schools for reading.
There's a Bandini quartet. I've read two of them, The
Road to Los Angeles, based in Wilmington and San Pedro thirties,
the last one dictated to his wife from a hospital bed,
Dreams from Bunker Hill, published in nineteen eighty two. Another
(31:10):
iconic LA writer, Charles Bukowski, is the guy who was
basically totally shaped by Phanta's work and who rediscovered Fanta
just hanging out at the LA library, was inspired by
it and got it republished by the Black spar Uh Press,
and that got his career revived. Of course, By then,
his feet and legs had been amputated due to diabetes,
(31:33):
and he was blind. But he raised four kids.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
It's terrible, terrible ending.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
Yeah. Well, he met his wife in Reno, raised four
kids in Malibu. His son Dan is an author and playwright.
He recently died in twenty fifteen. Considered to be the
quintessential La novelist. But he's from Denver and in his
books all places he knew Wilmington, Long Beach, Manhattan Beach
(32:01):
pre Cowherd, Hollywood Echo Park, and Malibu. John Phanto Square
is on Grand and Fifth. Uh, there's a sign right
in front of the Biltmore.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
Downtown Manhattan Beach existed before Cowherd.
Speaker 4 (32:17):
It's hard to believe it is one hundred and sixteen today,
Sean Fancy, you're right, but yes, it was mostly strawberry
fields and.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
We're you're a live guy. Let's go with our first
ever reality show, reality game show superstar. First ever reality
show superstar probably h Parker Pedro from the Real World.
Well we got season one, Matt.
Speaker 4 (32:42):
What about Julie that hot Southern dancer or Eric Eric
Musley angry black guy Kevin.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Reality show superstar from a game show Richard hash won
the first ever survivor. Oh Dickey is sixty four today,
born in Newport, Rhode Island, marine biology major at FI You.
Dickie dropped out enlisted, went to West Point after five
years in the army, got married to an Aussie lady.
Ten years they were married. But he was gay. Ho
(33:13):
gay sounds a little weird. First season, a Survivor dude
gets on and announces on air, I'm gay. You are gay.
I've never told anybody that before, but I'm telling you
my TV audience on Survivors CBS network.
Speaker 4 (33:26):
I'm gay. Why are you gay?
Speaker 3 (33:30):
Excuse me to our gay? Takes off all his clothes
and just rolls around naked on the island. But he
was the guy on the show. Man managed to lead
his group, formed an alliance, voted out every member of
the other tribe once the two tribes merged. Got a
little sideways on it with the immunity challenges. He didn't win,
almost got voted off when it was a final four
(33:51):
tied two to two. Managed to get past that and
then the and he beat a woman, Kelly Wigglesworth by
a four to three vote from the jury. He won
a million dollars and a Pontiac Aztec suv the car
that's still at the end of Pontiac And he was
a big celebrity, got some cameos on some CBS shows,
(34:13):
showed up on FX's Son of the Beach. He wrote
a book that was the best seller, one hundred and
one Survival Secrets, How to make a million dollars, lose
one hundred pounds and live happily. Ever after the Son
of the Beach, he did Hollywood Squares that he who
wants to be a millionaire Australia did the Biggest Link.
Speaker 4 (34:30):
The biggest Survivor star has to be a hassleback right, Yes, yeah,
because she made good.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
Yeah, her opportunities after and she married a football player.
Speaker 4 (34:41):
Yeah, this guy she this guy's pretty well.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
I could have had it all. However, when he went
back in OH four, he tried to play the same
hits and it didn't work. People were like, dude, we
don't want you naked here, get out. So he got
voted off super early. Oh yet, family feud. He's like,
all right, we'll take you battle the Network of Reality today,
(35:03):
We'll take you. And then September at five, indicted by
a federal grand jury on two counts of tax evasion,
one count of filing a false tax return, two counts
of wire fraud, four counts of mail fraud, one count
of bank fraud, and a failure to report one point
four million dollars in income. His tax returns were prepared
by two accounts that reflected his survivor winnings that Hatch
(35:25):
did not file. I think the RS is going to
know Richard, call me crazy. It's the number one show
in America. Instead, he filed his own return form that
excluded that income. He got four and a half years.
Four and a half years. He was in prison through
two thousand and nine fifty one months. When he got out,
Propes wanted him for a Heroes Versus Villains Survivor, but
(35:48):
he was under house arrest. He didn't have to serve.
Speaker 4 (35:52):
Zoo, I haven't eaten all days.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
I swear to guys, look I'm naked. Check it out.
Then had to go back and serve time because he
didn't amend his two thousand and two thousand and one
tax returns. So even though he was already cast and
had participated in Celebrity Apprentice that had already been filmed,
he had to drop out because he wouldn't make the finale.
He met an Argentine dude. They were hitched for fourteen years,
(36:18):
now divorced.
Speaker 4 (36:19):
Oh wow.
Speaker 3 (36:20):
He donated his sperm while he was in college and
thanks to that their ancestry dot com and the twenty
three and me ended up meeting two kids that were
birthed from his seed, a son and a daughter who
were twenty two. Most recently, he was on a show
called House of Villains too on EA. I didn't know
he still existed, but apparently it does.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
Can't spell cheap without eke.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
I guess it's like Big Brother, but with a holes
from reality TV in the house.
Speaker 4 (36:49):
Well though he is gay, gay though he is more
of a man than many of the men on.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
The House of Villains.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
I am not gay, you are gay? Sixty four?
Speaker 4 (37:01):
Who said I'm gay?
Speaker 3 (37:02):
You are gay? You are gay? He is sixty four
and proudly gay, and I don't believe incarcerated. I think
he is no longer incarcerated. So happy birthday, Dicky Hatch.
Speaker 4 (37:15):
Just because you're gay doesn't mean you can't hire an accountant.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
Jesus, I think they're gonna know you want a million
dollars on Survivors. Kind of the biggest story on Tverdag.
Speaker 4 (37:23):
They'll never know you. No, it's the last gasp of
network TV. They'll never know.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
How dare you include this on my tax return? You moron.
Speaker 4 (37:33):
We'll be back, We'll have the fun fact quick hits

But we are hopeful that we can put together music

Hopeful music at New.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
And on a time of the lies Tuesday, on a
racist Tuesday, on a.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
That's why I got the vanilla protein today instead of
the chocolate peanut which peanut butter, which I typically favor. Well, yeah,
but I grabbed the vanilla. I didn't know why. I
was like, why am I taking Milla? You know why?
Speaker 4 (02:47):
Because you're celebrating racist Tuesday. That's why all makes sense now.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Subconsciously, I can't help myself.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
We have David Vassa, who was not utilized by the
show before us today, even though the Dodgers really dribbled
it down their leg last night.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Well, there was breaking news. That's why Petross big NBA
news that needed to be covered first.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Well, I mean, I don't think they needed to do
twenty five minutes with fully functional employee at him with
his bionic.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
He How long did they really do? Like, if we
were to make an honest assessment, how long did they
really do on.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
My twenty five minutes?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Byes?
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Twenty five minutes? They did the Mike Malone Denver Nuggets story. Now,
I don't want to make a whole thing out of
it too, We're not doing the Michael Malone story. I
don't want to get all riled up about it. But
they did the story for twenty five here right now.
I mean, if I have to ask Ronnie to verify,
I'll do it right now, don't tempt me to ask
(03:50):
Ronnie to verify and make Ronnie open his mic or
his voice is twice as loud as any of ours.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
And hey money, how long did they do on the
Michael Malone.
Speaker 6 (03:58):
Twenty five minutes, twenty five seconds short of the twenty
five mark.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Okay, three spot on there.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
P told you, it's like you were sitting there listening
to them.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
I was why there's a reason why Petros has that
Brightling watch with like the nine different dials on the face,
with the different stop watches, and a chronograph.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
And two different glow in the dark features man green
and gold.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
And it's got the sun that shows when the sun's
out in the moon that shows.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
And I tested my Brightling at four hundred feet below
under the water. And when I do my scuba, when
I well, you know, what I like to do is
really long fins and your free dive. Yeah, I free
dive shipwrecks. So what I like to do is get
over a reck site and then I just free dive
and I do marine salvage, you know that's right. And
(04:57):
without that, without my marine sound h side career, I
don't think I could afford the lifestyle that I live Matt. No,
without my brightling watch, I don't think I could do
my marine salve.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
You'd be dead.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
So good stuff, Matt.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
You knew it was twenty five minutes exactly, and I said, no,
he's embellishing. It must be an exaggeration. Is that possible?
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Did you find my Did you find MYDA balloons?
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Matt?
Speaker 4 (05:22):
How did you find out about my secret free dive life?
Speaker 3 (05:25):
I know these things?
Speaker 4 (05:26):
You found my money, my dried out sponges and my
DOA balloons?
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Well it's your secret Instagram page. Oh marine reck free dive.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
Blooner.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Yeah, that's you.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
B was a Spanish Armanda ship.
Speaker 7 (05:44):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Look, Tim Kates is also into the vanilla today. Check
your text, Matt, check your ear. Creek greeky overt vanilla bean.
Tim Kates tell you that I still went with my
dark black coffee. I don't know what that says.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
There's some good probiotics in their cakes for your gut,
That's what I've heard. The Greek yogurt. That's why I
get it.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
Health probiotics like the soda that your wife and daughter
bought Matt to have around the house. Stupid poppy at
three dollars a pop.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Yeah, with ten thousand microbiomes. It promotes gut half. You
give me a diet coke.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Yesterday, you know, we were freaking.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Poppy and sticking in your ass.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
We were off early. We were off work early yesterday.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
A shark tank success story. Shut up.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
I had the opportunity to pick up my kids from
school and I was like, you know, I think i'll
do something nice. I'll go buy the market here and
get them a soda. And I'm looking at the sodas
and I was like, oh, all these are so bad
for you, but what about this poppies.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
It's a healthy soda. No, it's up.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
I bought them a couple of poppies, and when I
gave it to them, the price tags are still on them.
They're like, damn dad, three dollars.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Well it's healthy soda.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
And I said, look, it's gotta I thought of you man.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
I said, look, it's got probio probiotics.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Kids, you're paying the probiotics there, kids, that's what is.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Gonna health, the the gut gut health there, that's what
it's gonna do. It's carbonated water and artificial flavors. No,
it's not, it's really.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
No, it's not. It's different, Matt. You don't understand. You
don't understand the artisanal. You talk your Rteasonal beer and
your Teasonal coffee, Matt, with all that wind in your chest,
but you don't have a finger on the pulse of
the artisanal soda world. You are not.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
I did drink a beer that was called Elvis Juice
last night. That's what we're doing. What are we doing?
Speaker 4 (07:42):
That sounds awesome, That's what I said.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
I was like, anybody can make an I p a. Now,
apparently they decided to title this one Elba's Juice, and
it's worthy of packaging and being put in the corner
of liquor store here in Seal Beach. So here we go.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
I want my ipa to be really really, really really
cold so I don't have to taste it because it's
so growl.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
What did it taste like? Bacon, peanut butter? It is delicious.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Well, we're happy to be on early today, on this
time of the lines, Tuesday, and it is a sad
day for Dodger fans. As anybody who thought this Dodger
team was just going to high step undefeated through the
season read right into the curly Doves thing. Hey, hey, Red,
(08:28):
what the curly Doves took it to the Dodgers. That guy,
McKenzie Gore with two last names for his whole name,
just carved the Dodgers up.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
That gets good, man, that's the Padres guy they traded
for Won Soto. That mackenzie Gore. It's an interesting name.
Sounds like an actress from Facts of Life, but it's not.
It's a young pitcher. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
Don't think I didn't get a call from Dale Jeremiah
in the bottom of the third yesterday. Hey, you're welcome
for what he goes Kensey Gore he was a Padre
one time. No, he's taking it to the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
And it felt like even though he's like a young
guy he could pitch in the elements cold night.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
In DC didn't seem to affect him one bit.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
No, he was buckling knees and not saying please, Mookie Bets.
A shortstop is a national abomination. It's worse than the five.
It's a civic.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
Failure, man, it is a civic failure. Uh.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
And the Dodgers defense was pathetic. Tim Kates was all angry.
I mean, it was just an overall terrible night, even
though shoe a Otani was a triple away or a
double away from hitting for the cycle, and the Dodgers
did battle back. But Matt, I mean, what a difference
a weekend makes. We're not talking about We're not talking
(09:53):
about undefeated anymore. The Dodgers are in third place in
the WAT.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
They are in third place. They've lost three of four.
They may have the worst defense in all of baseball.
An experiment or a placation of a particular personality seems
to be the center if you were to identify a root,
cause I do believe that root would be signaled by
(10:17):
the number six on your scorecard. That would be my guess.
Speaker 7 (10:22):
Well, let's hear it gives you a good chance to
get in the ground. Ball towards second, back handed and
kicked by Rojas. Bets picks it up on trying to score.
He will Is, He ducks around Will smith.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Is.
Speaker 7 (10:35):
This has been Keystone cops for the Dodgers. Here in
the second in it gets two nothing nationalists.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
I was thinking the other side of the infield, but
that one was bad too. Rojas, you loser.
Speaker 7 (10:46):
Here's the only one pitch and this Paul Is hit
on the ground past Mookie Betts and in the left
field rounding third is too young.
Speaker 4 (10:54):
He's coming to the plate. Throw it the third and
the man a third is out. Just a terrible knight,
Just a terrible knight.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
All use to May. Doesn't deserve that man.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Come on, Yeah, he looked a little wobbly early, but
he pulled it off. And that's saved the Dodger bullpen
because the Dodger bullpen has been worn out hard in
the last couple nights because Roki Sasaki. I mean, these
guys don't pitch that long and smell Zilla's out now,
I mean all this high stepping that was going on.
Look at us now, Matt, look what's happened. That's why
(11:32):
you don't get out in front and start waving your
arms around and acted all crazy and saying the Dodger's
gonna be going defeated.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Am I supposed to know that a former MVP and
World Series MVP is going to be so demanding to
play a position where clearly he is not ready to play,
and it's gonna lead to Dustin May throwing too many
paint and like you said, walk those guys early settled
in eleven consecutive outs, and what's he'd get? Hard luck loser.
(12:00):
That's what that guy gets without earned runs. One earned
run and a loss is what that guy gets after
six innings. And it happened in his last outing too.
Who was it Munsey? Who was it that blew the
last last outing for him? Tim or Pe remind me?
Was that Munsey that had the bad error?
Speaker 2 (12:18):
That?
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Yes, Monsey did have an error.
Speaker 7 (12:21):
This has been Keystone cops for the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Here, yes it has, Tim Nevertt.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
He don't cash this, says, hey Petros. The Dodgers are
in third place. Why haven't they fired Dave Roberts. That's
a great question.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
I think they just gave him an extension, As a
matter of fact, made him the ice paid manager in
the league.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
Big freaking mistake. Look at where they are now, take miss.
They are in third place right now, and we're like,
right at the beginning of April. How are they going
to recover for this? Matt?
Speaker 3 (12:51):
I think they got enough time to dig out of
this hole.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
I hope so.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
I feel like they do. I mean, some adjustments will
be coming.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
Look at this, here's a text, Matt, with your optimistic talk.
I'm catching up on the podcast listening to Smith wax
poetic about one hundred and sixty two and oh, just
last Thursday and now just a few days later, the
Dodgers are farting all over themselves on the field, and
there are already calls for the panic brothers. What a
(13:20):
difference a weekend makes, doesn't it?
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Though?
Speaker 4 (13:24):
Are you saying that we should hit the panic button?
Are you saying we should bet? I mean, I don't.
Do you think Mookie Betts will hear the panic button
and remove himself from the shortstop position.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
I think that'd be the right thing for him to do,
recognize his limitations and perhaps manning the most demanding defensive
spot on the field. Is it necessarily what he's cut
out for at this particular time.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
Here's another text. Did the Dodgers beat themselves last night?
As Matt and Keates would say, where's Matt's positivity?
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Now? Oh god, I'm not panicked about anything. You know
who they're taking on tonight? What the almighty guy by
the name of Lord does not bode well for them?
Speaker 4 (14:14):
Is it Jack Lord's grandson? It's Hits Lord himself. Let
me tell be able to hit his curveball. Let me
tell you a story about Jack lud sobbing at elevator
W's and I said, Book of Daddoh, and he looks
straight into my eyes and he said.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
F you, those are the good stories. This gentleman's name
is Brad Lord. And Lord, yeah, it appears as though
he is a bit of a opener.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Lord v Robleski. Is Robleski gonna open open open like
Mervin's or is he gonna like try to go as
long as he's.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
Gonna try to go as long as he can.
Speaker 5 (14:49):
He's not an opener today, by the way, Brad Lord,
you know what he's most known for, being the Lord. Well,
besides being the Lord, guy works at a home deep
on the season because he was such a minor league
prospect that they didn't think much of. Didn't make a
lot of money in the signing bonus. It was in
the minor leagues the last two years, just kind of
fledgling in Double A and A ball. He had a
(15:09):
great spring this year and made the major league roster somehow.
But the guy works at home depot to make a living.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
I'm gonna keep my job at home depot, so saith
the Lord.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
You know what they got at home depot. They had
a lot of stuff you could doctor that ball with.
You know, a lot of sandpaper, nice twenty grit sandpaper.
Maybe you know, you got a little bit of texture
paint you can maybe throw there. I mean a lot
of action you get on that ball.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
Working depot almost like that stuff's not available to everybody.
You gotta work there, well, Matt. The Panic Brothers had
made their first appearance of the season. I haven't been
this panic since I free dove the truck, Lagoon and Micronesia.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
I stared danger in the face that day.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
They called me free diving.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
P came in mammal form. Yeah, this is not good, man,
They're at third place. This is not cool.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Yeah, what are we gonna do?
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Freak out? Man.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
Should have never listened to a guy that was, you know,
acting all cool about things, saying our troubles are over.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
I didn't know the road was gonna be such a hoover,
no smooth road, clear day.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
Why am I the only person traveling this way?
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Slun day yesterday? You know?
Speaker 4 (16:23):
Could it be we're headed in the wrong direction? Could
there be a detour ahead? Word number song coming up

you leave us alone.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
It is like a lion stretching before the hunt.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
Ah ohow, like the one on Bobby Miller's Choose. All right,
it's time with the word of the day, with his.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Words, the word of the day.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
Today's word of the day is figure. As if it
wasn't enough getting nailed by the king. All the weird
Lebron lovers out there, I believe on Twitter they're called
Lebron's sexuals who want to be his lover? Oh oh yeah,
hair want to be in my aluma.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Oh it's a good song.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Seventy five dollars, Matt will get you The mattel Kenbassador
Lebron James Barbie doll set for release at the end
of this month.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
What's the line look like?
Speaker 4 (19:02):
Full head of hair?
Speaker 3 (19:03):
Nah byes not accurate.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
They're already selling for one hundred and fifty dollars on eBay.
It's a Lebron Barbie doll with a blue LJ letterman's jacket,
the LJ standing for Lebron James Lemon Yang and a
hat with a crown on it, reminding you and us
(19:26):
that he is the King. A Bear Bryant style hounds
tooth pattern on his slacks, a man purse, cross shoulder
sling amrse and the bushy Egyptian pharaoh style beard, and
(19:47):
of course Lebron shoes that match the Lebron letterman's jacket
byes Man. This is the first Barbie Ken male athlete release.
There was a Venus Williams, there was Australian soccer star
(20:07):
Mary Fowler. Those are the other athletes who Mattel has
made Barbie dolls for. But this is the first male athlete.
The Lebron James Ken Ambassador doll now on the back
of the box, it says it represents hope and pride
(20:29):
for the city of Akron and the world beyond. The
Akron Beacon Journal loves this. So get yourself to the
cabbage Patch kid Frenzy or the Tickle Me Elmo or
(20:52):
Furbie's or whatever it is that everybody's into now. I
just I don't even think it exists anymore. You don't
have to work at the store like Lord to have
access to all the stuff anymore, but you can get
nailed by the King in dull form. What could be better?
And I know you're fixated on the hairline, Matt, but
(21:14):
you gotta love that man purse.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
I mean, wow, letterman's jacket, man purse. What looks to
be like a berbery plaid pant that.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
Is like the hound's tooth, the hound's tooth.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
Yeah, and like showing off his his calves or his amples.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
Well, no, you're looking like the flood's coming in.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
They're high riding, that's for sure.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
The man purse is the real chef's kiss. I don't
know why he doesn't have like a side special container
like YETI container for wine or anything.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
But sunglasses in hand, like you said, the crown cap
to let you know. I thought maybe there was salt
and pepper and the beard. I think that's just the
reflection of the light.
Speaker 4 (21:58):
I thought originally when I saw it, I thought it
was salt and pepper on the beard. But it turns
out to be a sheen off, that bushy feyro beard,
a sheene.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
We got to get one of these dolls for the station,
because even though we're not, there are plenty of lebron
sexuals at the station that would appreciate the doll. And
it's only seventy five dollars.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
That's it. Oh headphones, Oh yeah, I got glasses and headphones. Eats, Yeah,
I got my beats. The watch. Oh and he's got
a wristband on that says something promise.
Speaker 4 (22:36):
Oh, I promise.

time for the number of.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
The here's my number, number of the day.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
This might be the most defensive doll I've ever seen
in my life, Matt. The mirth is uh, seemingly one hundred.
I don't know if I'm alone on this one or
if people will see this as belly aching or be
able to U join the chorus my complaining here? What
is the value in peppering a customer with emails and
(23:14):
texts the second after they do something with a business
that requires in putting your email address or phone number.

How do you think a guy like me ends up

(25:54):
Stop already, bad business man, bad busy.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
You want to report them to the Bad Business Bureau
the BBB.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
That's right, I'm going to the BBB and you're getting
an f I'm being harrissed. I don't like being harissed.
Speaker 4 (26:10):

latch onto your data. I mean you understand you use
the word algorithm all the time.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
I mean you know what, I subscribe from everything.
Speaker 4 (26:20):
Yeah, you got to hit stop. But when when Mother's
Day or Christmas or all that comes around, they override
your stop and they punch you right in the face.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Oh. You know who's the worst at my wife? She
unsubscribes from nothing. She's got like nineteen thousand emails.
Speaker 4 (26:39):

just a kid from Akron is in Plaze and on
the back of the James Letterman jacket that he's on.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
The back of the jacket, on the.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
Doll Yeah, and there's a couple special Easter egg ones
with a Malcolm X book that has not been opened.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Right, this is the song of the day.
Speaker 8 (27:23):
Today's song of the day is called two for Tuesday
from a band called rocket Ship Park because the Petros
and Money shows on your AM radio for a real
two for Tuesday super Flex alert with the Dodgers in
our nation's capital getting ready for Game two at Nationals Park,
with Tim Kats warming up in the bullpen, getting ready
for that Morongo's Casino Dodgers on Deck program that's coming
(27:45):
up shortly.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
What are you Runny?
Speaker 4 (27:49):
What a poll, Ronnie? Rocket Ship Park is in Torrence,
at least the one I know of.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
I wonder where this band.
Speaker 6 (27:57):
Is from a Long Island, New York.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
I believe, all right, well they must have some connection.
I guess there's more than one rocket Ship Park.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
What are you guys gonna learn? What are you gonna learn?
Speaker 4 (28:16):
I'm just wondering.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
I'm sitting I'm sitting here in silence. Gates don't say,
don't include me in this.
Speaker 4 (28:22):
Yeah, well, I don't want to come back to the

games between now, when we sign off at the bottom
of two o'clock hour and when we will return somewhere
in the five o'clock hour tomorrow. Today's first pitch three
forty five pm Clippers on our sister station, AM eleven fifty.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
Well, Matt, this week you've had the Killogg legacy, but
we also have La Riding legends. Yes, today we will
deal with John Fanta Los Angeles Royalty. Maybe our best.
But like Don Martin from Denver. Born in Denver, devout
(29:16):
Italian Catholic dad was a gambler and a bricklayer. Went
to Regis High School and then briefly to the University
of Colorado, but dropped out hitchhike to La to write.
He was discovered by literary superstar after multiple attempts at
(29:37):
failing literary superstar, HL Menkin found John Fanta, but he
was living in a flophouse and writing Bunker Hill in
nineteen thirties Los Angeles, and he wrote his first novel
with Menkin's help, creating his literary persona Italian an American
(30:00):
poor novelist from Colorado, Arturo Bandini. You can't talk to
me like that. I'm Arturo Bandini. His second novel is
his best known, Ask the Dust, which is widely considered
to be the LA novel Main Street, Pershing Square, Downtown
(30:27):
Poor LA poet protagonist Colin Ferrell, tried to make a
movie with Samahaya years back. What little art movie mother?
They made it? I should say he tried to make
a movie. People watched Gotcha? I watched it? Who am
I La? Nineteen thirty Nine's asked the Dust is the
(30:48):
book and it should be in the schools for reading.
There's a Bandini quartet. I've read two of them, The
Road to Los Angeles, based in Wilmington and San Pedro thirties,
the last one dictated to his wife from a hospital bed,
Dreams from Bunker Hill, published in nineteen eighty two. Another
(31:10):
iconic LA writer, Charles Bukowski, is the guy who was
basically totally shaped by Phanta's work and who rediscovered Fanta
just hanging out at the LA library, was inspired by
it and got it republished by the Black spar Uh Press,
and that got his career revived. Of course, By then,
his feet and legs had been amputated due to diabetes,
(31:33):
and he was blind. But he raised four kids.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
It's terrible, terrible ending.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
Yeah. Well, he met his wife in Reno, raised four
kids in Malibu. His son Dan is an author and playwright.
He recently died in twenty fifteen. Considered to be the
quintessential La novelist. But he's from Denver and in his
books all places he knew Wilmington, Long Beach, Manhattan Beach
(32:01):
pre Cowherd, Hollywood Echo Park, and Malibu. John Phanto Square
is on Grand and Fifth. Uh, there's a sign right
in front of the Biltmore.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
Downtown Manhattan Beach existed before Cowherd.
Speaker 4 (32:17):
It's hard to believe it is one hundred and sixteen today,
Sean Fancy, you're right, but yes, it was mostly strawberry
fields and.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
We're you're a live guy. Let's go with our first
ever reality show, reality game show superstar. First ever reality
show superstar probably h Parker Pedro from the Real World.
Well we got season one, Matt.
Speaker 4 (32:42):
What about Julie that hot Southern dancer or Eric Eric
Musley angry black guy Kevin.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Reality show superstar from a game show Richard hash won
the first ever survivor. Oh Dickey is sixty four today,
born in Newport, Rhode Island, marine biology major at FI You.
Dickie dropped out enlisted, went to West Point after five
years in the army, got married to an Aussie lady.
Ten years they were married. But he was gay. Ho
(33:13):
gay sounds a little weird. First season, a Survivor dude
gets on and announces on air, I'm gay. You are gay.
I've never told anybody that before, but I'm telling you
my TV audience on Survivors CBS network.
Speaker 4 (33:26):
I'm gay. Why are you gay?
Speaker 3 (33:30):
Excuse me to our gay? Takes off all his clothes
and just rolls around naked on the island. But he
was the guy on the show. Man managed to lead
his group, formed an alliance, voted out every member of
the other tribe once the two tribes merged. Got a
little sideways on it with the immunity challenges. He didn't win,
almost got voted off when it was a final four
(33:51):
tied two to two. Managed to get past that and
then the and he beat a woman, Kelly Wigglesworth by
a four to three vote from the jury. He won
a million dollars and a Pontiac Aztec suv the car
that's still at the end of Pontiac And he was
a big celebrity, got some cameos on some CBS shows,
(34:13):
showed up on FX's Son of the Beach. He wrote
a book that was the best seller, one hundred and
one Survival Secrets, How to make a million dollars, lose
one hundred pounds and live happily. Ever after the Son
of the Beach, he did Hollywood Squares that he who
wants to be a millionaire Australia did the Biggest Link.
Speaker 4 (34:30):
The biggest Survivor star has to be a hassleback right, Yes, yeah,
because she made good.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
Yeah, her opportunities after and she married a football player.
Speaker 4 (34:41):
Yeah, this guy she this guy's pretty well.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
I could have had it all. However, when he went
back in OH four, he tried to play the same
hits and it didn't work. People were like, dude, we
don't want you naked here, get out. So he got
voted off super early. Oh yet, family feud. He's like,
all right, we'll take you battle the Network of Reality today,
(35:03):
We'll take you. And then September at five, indicted by
a federal grand jury on two counts of tax evasion,
one count of filing a false tax return, two counts
of wire fraud, four counts of mail fraud, one count
of bank fraud, and a failure to report one point
four million dollars in income. His tax returns were prepared
by two accounts that reflected his survivor winnings that Hatch
(35:25):
did not file. I think the RS is going to
know Richard, call me crazy. It's the number one show
in America. Instead, he filed his own return form that
excluded that income. He got four and a half years.
Four and a half years. He was in prison through
two thousand and nine fifty one months. When he got out,
Propes wanted him for a Heroes Versus Villains Survivor, but
(35:48):
he was under house arrest. He didn't have to serve.
Speaker 4 (35:52):
Zoo, I haven't eaten all days.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
I swear to guys, look I'm naked. Check it out.
Then had to go back and serve time because he
didn't amend his two thousand and two thousand and one
tax returns. So even though he was already cast and
had participated in Celebrity Apprentice that had already been filmed,
he had to drop out because he wouldn't make the finale.
He met an Argentine dude. They were hitched for fourteen years,
(36:18):
now divorced.
Speaker 4 (36:19):
Oh wow.
Speaker 3 (36:20):
He donated his sperm while he was in college and
thanks to that their ancestry dot com and the twenty
three and me ended up meeting two kids that were
birthed from his seed, a son and a daughter who
were twenty two. Most recently, he was on a show
called House of Villains too on EA. I didn't know
he still existed, but apparently it does.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
Can't spell cheap without eke.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
I guess it's like Big Brother, but with a holes
from reality TV in the house.
Speaker 4 (36:49):
Well though he is gay, gay though he is more
of a man than many of the men on.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
The House of Villains.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
I am not gay, you are gay? Sixty four?
Speaker 4 (37:01):
Who said I'm gay?
Speaker 3 (37:02):
You are gay? You are gay? He is sixty four
and proudly gay, and I don't believe incarcerated. I think
he is no longer incarcerated. So happy birthday, Dicky Hatch.
Speaker 4 (37:15):
Just because you're gay doesn't mean you can't hire an accountant.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
Jesus, I think they're gonna know you want a million
dollars on Survivors. Kind of the biggest story on Tverdag.
Speaker 4 (37:23):
They'll never know you. No, it's the last gasp of
network TV. They'll never know.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
How dare you include this on my tax return? You moron.
Speaker 4 (37:33):
We'll be back, We'll have the fun fact quick hits
