WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:11.439
This is the downbeat on the seven
one, the freak. All right,

2
00:00:11.560 --> 00:00:16.079
eight o'clock back to the Big d
Bracket Part three. Today is the beginning

3
00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:21.519
of the Big Tournament. Eight o'clock. Yeah, eight o'clock, Nicy eight

4
00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:24.399
thirty. Dingo's Morning News. Danny, do you have an update on that

5
00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:29.839
sewage spill? We have more than
an update. We've got latest details and

6
00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:38.240
an interesting piece of audio that was
sent to me by a member of the

7
00:00:38.359 --> 00:00:44.240
Corinthian Boat Club Corinthians Sailing Club.
Yeah, somebody that's affiliated with them sent

8
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:50.560
me some audio that you do not
want to miss this. It's incredible.

9
00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:54.880
It's something I had no idea about, something we discussed yesterday, and it

10
00:00:54.920 --> 00:00:58.399
will just help further evolve and elevate
this story. Yeah, word from the

11
00:00:58.479 --> 00:01:02.799
vice commodore, Yes, the vice
commodore. You're not going to believe this.

12
00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:07.640
And also, man, this may
be the most important on this day

13
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:11.519
in history that this city, the
city of Dallas, has ever seen something

14
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:19.040
that happened forty four years ago today. Point here is that nineteen eighty email.

15
00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:25.280
Damn, that's huge. While you're
guessing, well, hold on,

16
00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:30.480
no, I'm thinking, no brain
guessing all that's coming up in at eight

17
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:34.680
thirty, just all the time to
marinate on this hour in the bathroom during

18
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:38.480
that segment, for time to think. Can I read you, guys an

19
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:41.640
email from a listener before we did
the scuttle But I'm good, We're fine.

20
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:46.920
I'm going to read it to you. Why'd you ask, guys?

21
00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:53.519
This is from Jim, not Jim. I've been in correspondence with Jim.

22
00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:57.200
Try to get him on, but
he's driving. I want to start yelling

23
00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:00.920
us about hockey. Yeah, Okay, go ahead, Let's just this a

24
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:07.719
listener email. Okay said this to
me Astray. Today was the day I

25
00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:10.520
made the switch. I was so
excited when I heard two of my favorite

26
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:14.719
people from the station I was loyal
to for over twenty years were starting a

27
00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:19.280
new station. I listened to the
Downbeat and Speakeasy almost every day since Mike

28
00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:23.199
Ryaner christened The Freak. I was
overjoyed when Mike, Mikey Groobs, and

29
00:02:23.240 --> 00:02:28.599
eventually the addition of arguably one of
the most talented personalities in DFW radio,

30
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:36.039
Dingo All became the new home for
my afternoon drive listening. Even after the

31
00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:39.080
big show mix ups, I was
still a loyal listener. We switched shows

32
00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:43.680
for those that didn't know in July, you know, and Jeff and Julie,

33
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:45.360
who were on the morning show at
the time, were now in the

34
00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:50.759
afternoon with Mike Ryner and groups.
If I couldn't listen live, I would

35
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:55.120
always catch the podcast asap. All
that changed after listening to Monday's March eighteenth

36
00:02:55.120 --> 00:03:00.960
show. Uh oh oh, I
know you've always made not to be a

37
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:04.759
sports talk radio station, even though
half your segments are sports related. Stop

38
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:07.639
stop the email. First of all, I'll tell you what if you think

39
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:12.599
half of our segments are sport that's
one thing I do have a problem with

40
00:03:12.639 --> 00:03:15.280
this email. If you think half
our segments are sports related, then you

41
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:22.439
ain't listening Bud, Yeah, Bud
as we do. Yeah maybe twenty maybe

42
00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:28.599
twenty be quiet, twenty females putting
for Bogy twenty twenty one percent. Your

43
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:31.000
show has adopted the bin and skin
approach to handling. To the handling of

44
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:36.080
the Dallas Stars. That approach is
to ignore them and crap all over the

45
00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:39.039
stars, and by association, they're
loyal fans, which I maintain are numerous,

46
00:03:39.439 --> 00:03:43.759
and a thrown a bone every now
and then might help improve that rating.

47
00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:46.840
Let me tell you, buddy,
talking more stars ain't gonna help these

48
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:54.520
ratings. I'm just telling you one
of the and it's nothing that has less

49
00:03:54.560 --> 00:04:00.479
to do with the stars than anything
else. Trust me, I don't think

50
00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:04.800
that's the solution to this Rubik's cube
is It's not. It's not because of

51
00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:08.719
the stars or the Stars fans,
not at all. Although in fairness,

52
00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:11.240
we don't know what the solution is. Well, I know, it's just

53
00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:15.879
like we don't know what one station
does well when they have the stars and

54
00:04:15.920 --> 00:04:20.000
it works. I have my thoughts. Hang on, they were fine before

55
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:24.680
they had the stars. One of
my biggest, one of the biggest stories

56
00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:27.839
in THEFTW over the weekend was the
unveiling of the Mike madonnog statue. Not

57
00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:30.519
one mentioned from the downbeat in any
of your segments of this historical day.

58
00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:35.879
Nothing, not a zip. He's
right. It was on every newscast in

59
00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:39.680
the DFW metroplex, but not one
mention of the downbeat. What a slap

60
00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:42.839
in the face to the stars fans
in your audience, people like me,

61
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:48.279
a fifty something guy with a high
six figure income fifty four or less.

62
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:50.920
Yeah, what do you mean?
Fifty song? Yeah, we should probably

63
00:04:50.920 --> 00:04:56.040
find out, because I tell you, if you don't care, fifty five

64
00:04:56.160 --> 00:05:01.000
or over, no, we care. They they don't. We're not trying

65
00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:04.519
to get you to go to advanced
hair restoration. Fifty five year old,

66
00:05:05.319 --> 00:05:12.920
you're right out Oddly oddly, he
said, a fifty something year old got

67
00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:16.199
a fifty something guy with the high
six figure income who has bought Java John's

68
00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:21.759
coffee, patronize the album draft House
Reliant, and someday hope to retain the

69
00:05:21.800 --> 00:05:26.519
services of Franklin Frankel. Which that
was an odd note too, because look,

70
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:30.079
I can't wait to get rammed by
a semi it. Do call the

71
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:31.920
Frankles if you're in a wreck and
it's not your fault, two and four

72
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:35.480
all three the subtext. But you
know you don't want to. I like,

73
00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:39.199
we don't want you to have to
call them. We want you to

74
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:42.879
call them if you need to.
He's looking forward to the day. I

75
00:05:42.920 --> 00:05:46.199
thought that was an odd note,
but look he's right about the Madonna thing

76
00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:50.480
due and I will gladly fall on
the sword for this. This was a

77
00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:56.360
major oversight. You know, I
do a news segment every day, typically

78
00:05:56.399 --> 00:05:59.759
at eight thirty, and that should
have led the damn news, and I

79
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:03.600
saw stuff on it all weekend long. The statue unveiling was cool that they

80
00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:09.399
did a great job on it.
They got the hockey jersey whip, you

81
00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:14.439
know, the emblematic jersey flowing in
the back of Mike Madonna that's on the

82
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:17.399
statue, which looks really cool.
And we didn't talk about it well and

83
00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:19.839
I should have. It's a big
moment. And I love Mike MacDonald and

84
00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:24.639
I love the Stars. I don't
get to watch them during the regular season

85
00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:27.879
because I don't have access to them, and I don't care about them as

86
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:31.560
much as I do the MAVs.
So it's just it is what it is.

87
00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:36.279
And that's a lazy way of getting
out of this discussion. But it's

88
00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:40.680
true. He's right. We didn't
mention it on Monday, and I apologize

89
00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:42.839
to that too. Let me just
say this though, the teams do us

90
00:06:42.839 --> 00:06:45.519
no favor here, and they did
this with Dirt by the way too,

91
00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:50.439
dirt statue on Christmas Day? Why
why do it then? Do it in

92
00:06:50.480 --> 00:06:55.240
the middle of the week or do
it on a don't put it on Christmas

93
00:06:55.319 --> 00:06:59.720
Day? Monday. I'm sorry,
Monday. We're here, we come off

94
00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:03.120
a week and a bunch of crap
happened on Sunday the parade as well on

95
00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:06.199
Saturday. And I get it they
were doing it because he's the Grand Marshal

96
00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:10.759
of the Prey and all that,
But Saturday at four pm is not some

97
00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:15.720
great time to get all attention on
you to the statue. Thirdly, I

98
00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:20.800
don't give a crap about statues,
never have, So that's where I stand

99
00:07:20.839 --> 00:07:26.199
on that. Let me just say, though, he's right on that we

100
00:07:26.279 --> 00:07:29.600
had it on the wrong sheet and
it just sheltered a lot of things.

101
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:32.319
We never got to it. He
continues, Okay, go ahead, and

102
00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:35.399
let's get to the email. And
I have thoughts and you want to go

103
00:07:35.399 --> 00:07:39.720
ahead. No. I stopped listening
to The Bit and Skin Show during the

104
00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:43.600
Star's deep playoff run last year after
they decided to ass all over the Stars

105
00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:46.480
by making a joke of them during
the show, which was a good thing

106
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:49.959
for The Downbeat since I would use
their showtime to catch up on the Downbeats

107
00:07:49.959 --> 00:07:55.399
podcast. Now, that's when Ben
was doing his big hockey podcast. Now,

108
00:07:55.399 --> 00:07:58.040
I had a hockey podcast called The
One Timer, but there's only one

109
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:03.439
episode of it today. It was
different. After eighteen months of turning my

110
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:07.040
back on the station. I was
a p one for twenty years. I

111
00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:11.040
was back. I woke up,
fired up my supports, day up,

112
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:15.839
and picked up where I left off
eighteen months ago. I was back at

113
00:08:15.839 --> 00:08:18.639
two for the speakeasy. After all, Julie at least has the balls to

114
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:22.040
mention the Stars, Reiner seems to
be a genuine fan of the team,

115
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:26.560
and even Kavanaugh feigns interest in the
Stars regards Jim and I asked Jim to

116
00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:30.240
call in, and he was driving
through Colorado and he said, I don't

117
00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:33.600
think I could add anything witty.
He also said, I'm gonna give Jim

118
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:37.600
a little credit on this. He
said, he said, I'm not sure

119
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:39.879
what I would contribute. I'm not
witty, funny, or an ex con

120
00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:46.399
wrestling fan. Oh boy, it's
a shot at Brody. You better listen

121
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:50.799
at nine forty today, Jim.
I have a feeling our ex con wrestling

122
00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:54.080
fan might have a report for Jim. That's what I was gonna say.

123
00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:56.759
I wanted Jim to call in,
so you give him the opportunity today.

124
00:08:56.879 --> 00:09:00.840
Yeah, but he was driving through
the hills of College. Okay. The

125
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:03.879
one thing we know is when you
say that's when I stopped listening. You

126
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:09.360
are definitely dialed in like that week. Yeah, so, Jim, we

127
00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:13.039
do invite you to call to and
four seven eight seven seven one and ja

128
00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:16.200
jedall might take some skill to weed
out the fake gyms that are gonna call

129
00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:22.799
right now, look at her,
she's like, great, hello, Hello,

130
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:26.720
Oh this is Jim. Can I
just say that I enjoyed the Stars

131
00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:30.799
five to two win over Arizona last
night, especially that high scoring second period.

132
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:33.279
Okay before, okay, before I
just heard that email, Danny,

133
00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:35.799
What did I say to you on
the phone just last night? He told

134
00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:41.000
me that we need to ramp up
a little bit and start picking some Stars

135
00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:46.240
games, maybe one's more of note, and take them in and at least

136
00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:48.840
spend a little bit of time on
him. And that's before knowing about the

137
00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:52.639
gym email. Yeah, before I
knew at Jim, I did know about

138
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:56.600
the gym email. Well, it
did hit me because I looked at the

139
00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:58.960
damn record because yesterday I was like, what am I going to watch?

140
00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:01.600
And it was a good night to
watch the Stars, and I didn't because

141
00:10:01.600 --> 00:10:03.879
I want out to dinner. My
mom's in town. But they are forty

142
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:07.960
two nineteen and nine. Yeah,
I'm like I saw it yesterday it was

143
00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:11.480
forty one. I'm like forty one
at nineteen. Look at these bastards ninety

144
00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:15.759
three points tied for the top of
their conference. Fine, Look, I've

145
00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:18.240
apologized. I don't know hockey.
I don't feel like I can comfortably provide

146
00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:24.480
Gym or any legitimate Stars fan any
information that they don't have. Yeah,

147
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:26.399
I'm not gonna pretend to do it. Like a lot of stations will.

148
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:31.240
I agree with that one person at
our other station that really knows anything about

149
00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:35.960
hockey and is worth like really listening
to. Otherwise they get guests on to

150
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:41.559
knock out their hockey segments. That's
what that is. I enjoy it and

151
00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:45.399
feel like I can talk about it
a little bit. But I will say

152
00:10:45.600 --> 00:10:48.240
this, there's a couple of things
in play here. The ballet situation,

153
00:10:48.360 --> 00:10:50.879
I think does not help things.
There's another team I have to go out

154
00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:54.480
of my way for to get the
Bally thing going. For a lot of

155
00:10:54.480 --> 00:11:03.039
people in the Metroplex, dare think
about all that stiff with hockey's Sometimes hockey

156
00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:07.600
people are not the most welcoming when
I think the attitude should be joined the

157
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:11.879
bandwagon. I'm not talking to everyone
but some people. I remember a long

158
00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:15.919
time ago, and I was never
mathis person by. I tried to shoehorn

159
00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:16.919
some hockey into the show. But
this is back when I was doing a

160
00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:22.759
support show and I got a text
from someone who knew hockey really well,

161
00:11:22.840 --> 00:11:24.960
was affiliate with the station. It
was kind of like correcting me on like

162
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:28.519
a stat I'd missed, and I'm
like, well, dude, I can't

163
00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:31.120
do that. Look, it's a
damned if you do, damned if you

164
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:35.120
don't situation, because if you don't
talk about it at all, then you

165
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:39.120
get ripped for not acknowledging them and
talking about them. And if you start

166
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:43.720
talking about them and watching the games, you get corrected, you get accused

167
00:11:43.720 --> 00:11:50.519
of being a bandwagoner, you get
ripped for your interpretation of the game or

168
00:11:50.559 --> 00:11:54.919
not knowing the full scope of the
rules or whatever. So it's kind of

169
00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:58.080
like it's like politics. It's like, yeah, I could talk about politics,

170
00:11:58.159 --> 00:12:03.240
but I'm it's polarizing and generally nobody
really wants to hear about it.

171
00:12:03.720 --> 00:12:07.360
You know, a small percentage you
want to hear about it. So it's

172
00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:13.679
just one of those things unless something
of note really happens. And unfortunately in

173
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:18.320
this market. Something of note with
the stars happens when the playoffs start.

174
00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:22.240
Yeah, and Jim, get ready
because once the playoffs start, watch every

175
00:12:22.279 --> 00:12:24.840
game, same here, and guess
what. Let be fired up. Same

176
00:12:24.919 --> 00:12:28.399
here. I'm gonna you're gonna You're
gonna ball your fist and get mad that

177
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:31.799
we didn't trudge through the desert of
the hockey regular You'll get accused you didn't

178
00:12:31.799 --> 00:12:35.840
earn the right. Yep, you'll
be accused of being a bandwagoner when you

179
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:39.000
start talking hockey even when the playoffs
starts. So look when I do this

180
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:41.039
every year, We've been through this, right, and guess what. The

181
00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:46.879
playoffs are fun as hell, and
I will do the obligatory segment part of

182
00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:50.360
a segment where I say, Jesus, hockey playoffs are the absolute best or

183
00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:52.639
better than any other playoffs. It
was so exciting. I'm standing up.

184
00:12:54.080 --> 00:12:56.440
It's all gonna happen. I've been
named the emergency goalie for the playoffs.

185
00:12:56.759 --> 00:13:03.279
Yeah, so I'm ready. I
amped uh, Jim, if you are

it's hoping and wishing for the day.

188
00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:18.519

200
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:13.320
A problem at the dome, there's
no solution at home. Call Advanced

201
00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:26.559
Terror Restoration. Tiger's golf courses opening. You see that many golf course Mobstroke

202
00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:33.279
Popstroke coming gonna open a week from
two days. Yes, dude, too

203
00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:39.840
many golf courses. It's what too
many golf courses, too many golf saying

204
00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:45.000
there's too many prostitutes. Too many, he said, too many, too

205
00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:48.159
many golf courses. There you go, too many ature golf courses. I

206
00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:52.600
should have paused for effect. Okay, popstroke is awesome. How do you

207
00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:56.399
know Sarasota, Florida? Got one? Got one? Been there, been

208
00:14:56.440 --> 00:15:00.320
there, putted it tell me everything
you need to know about. What is

209
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:03.639
it? Top stroke? Pop stroke, hopstroke? It's because we also we

210
00:15:03.679 --> 00:15:05.240
already have the puttery in the cars. I thought pop stroke is when dad

211
00:15:05.240 --> 00:15:11.799
went into the bathroom for too long. Yeah, there's the longest shell forever,

212
00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:18.159
all day, all day, he's
all day. Uh, it's mini

213
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:22.799
golf. It's it's great mini golf. It's cool mini golf. It's not

214
00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:26.720
like wacky. It's it's regular,
real holes. But they're all uh,

215
00:15:28.360 --> 00:15:30.639
I mean, I don't know how
to Are you just playing like wedges and

216
00:15:30.799 --> 00:15:31.799
no, no, no, it's
all putting. It's all putting, all

217
00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:35.360
putting. So but it's like,
I don't want to just say high end

218
00:15:35.440 --> 00:15:39.879
because the prices are way more than
your average mini golf course. Are you

219
00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:43.799
putting on real grass or turfy?
It's turf, but it's very good turf,

220
00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:46.679
and there's sort of a fair way
and like kind of a hilly rough

221
00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:52.360
to the side that keeps your ball
on the It's just good. It's quality

222
00:15:52.519 --> 00:15:58.080
mini miniature golf. This is outdoor, outdoor venue. Got a restaurant in

223
00:15:58.080 --> 00:16:02.320
a beer garden. It'll stay up
until midnight on Friday and Saturday, so

224
00:16:02.399 --> 00:16:03.480
they're trying to you know, dude, it's up, drink it up,

225
00:16:03.480 --> 00:16:07.200
you know, party kind of vibe
and the food and drink is all good.

226
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:11.000
And there's all the mini games in
that courtyard you're talking about. The

227
00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:14.720
one that starts off. It was
really fun, always packed often two packed

228
00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:18.440
to where you can't get a tea
time. Oh noah, like packed packed.

229
00:16:19.399 --> 00:16:22.720
Yeah, this is a twelfth one, the twelfth pop Stroke location.

230
00:16:25.080 --> 00:16:27.679
Uh. And also we'll have an
ice cream parlor. What an ice cream

231
00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:33.559
parlor? An ice cream parlor?
No, try ice cream parlor. Thank

232
00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:40.360
you see thank you four times.
And it's gonna have additional outdoor games such

233
00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:44.080
as ping pong, foosball, and
cornhole, all that going on. No

234
00:16:44.200 --> 00:16:49.080
pickleball. It's so it's gonna be
up in the colony in that grandscape area

235
00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:56.639
where also Rory McElroy's indoor mini golf
puttery puttery. So two golf titans going

236
00:16:56.679 --> 00:17:00.759
head to head in the game of
mini golf Rory Tiger, so many first

237
00:17:00.840 --> 00:17:04.319
dates. I've been to pottery too, You've been. I've been to puttery

238
00:17:04.759 --> 00:17:08.759
by good times. I find myself
getting bored with mini golf after about four

239
00:17:08.799 --> 00:17:15.799
holes anyways, so it's very I've
found puttery to be more instagrammable, completely

240
00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:18.640
agree. I think it's almost for
chicks. Yes, I wanted to love

241
00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:25.400
it, but it was nut to
butt, like you're waiting for people to

242
00:17:25.400 --> 00:17:29.039
get done taking their pictures per hole. Yeah, the holes are very wacky.

243
00:17:29.079 --> 00:17:32.359
There's almost no like golf to it. And popstroke is golf, like

244
00:17:32.400 --> 00:17:36.519
you someone will set the course record
at popstroke, yeah, and if the

245
00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:41.559
legitimacy, who knows. But they'll
have like tournaments there. It's kind of

246
00:17:41.720 --> 00:17:45.920
realer putting. Puttery is just wacky. I am condensed and small. There's

247
00:17:45.960 --> 00:17:48.960
no no putt over like twelve feet
at puttery. But it was kind of

248
00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:52.599
cool, like they'll bring you drinks, you know. I mean it's there

249
00:17:52.599 --> 00:17:56.880
to have a cocktail and incredibly overpriced
drinks, but you can carry them around

250
00:17:56.920 --> 00:18:00.799
the course. And there's a little
table at every tea by where you bring

251
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:04.839
your drinks and pottery has uh is
it digital golf balls because they have a

252
00:18:04.920 --> 00:18:10.839
running score the TVs everywhere the show
like how many underpar? Everybody else?

253
00:18:10.839 --> 00:18:11.799
That was pretty cool. Okay,
it's not a digital ball, but you

254
00:18:11.839 --> 00:18:15.599
just put your score. You put
your score in, but you have time

255
00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:18.359
to do it because the cool thing
is like location. So like you go,

256
00:18:18.759 --> 00:18:22.400
here's like a ski trip. Of
course, here's you're in a library.

257
00:18:22.960 --> 00:18:26.799
Here's when you're like a tropical island. You know, it's just a

258
00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:32.279
little well, it's it's interesting.
It's interesting. I don't know that I

259
00:18:32.319 --> 00:18:34.799
like loved it, but it's interesting. At least did love puttery. I

260
00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:40.119
think people will love Popstroke. It's
not real miniature golf unless you are putting

261
00:18:40.200 --> 00:18:42.799
through a windmill. Right, there
has to be one windmill. There's no

262
00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:48.599
windmills at Popstroke. Damn it.
You've seen the course layout and design.

263
00:18:48.759 --> 00:18:53.920
I've not seen the layout here.
Can you bring your windmill if it's small,

264
00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:56.480
if if it's in your pocket,
I guess yeah. Or you can

265
00:18:56.519 --> 00:19:00.039
carry probably a little windmill in and
just set it next to the holes if

266
00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:07.480
you if you want. Okay,
I love you ask the dumbest question of

267
00:19:07.480 --> 00:19:11.519
all time. Obviously we laugh and
your follow up is okay, oh that

268
00:19:11.559 --> 00:19:17.480
does look okay, that looks standard
and less less obstacles. There's no obstacles.

269
00:19:17.519 --> 00:19:21.160
Well, there's little bunkers and I
think those are water now that i'm

270
00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:23.759
seeing it. Nah, you're right, man, everyone is different. Look

271
00:19:23.799 --> 00:19:27.960
at this, Danny, see that. I mean that looks like real golf.

272
00:19:27.960 --> 00:19:33.480
Bro, It's like real golf,
except putting popstroke. It's fun coming

273
00:19:33.480 --> 00:19:38.200
to a metroplex near you and you
just start somewhere on the green or do

274
00:19:38.279 --> 00:19:41.799
you have to get on the green? No? No, there's a little

275
00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:44.079
bit of t box, you know, same as mini golf. There's a

276
00:19:44.119 --> 00:19:48.880
little dots where you have to start, and then it's a long green.

277
00:19:48.920 --> 00:19:52.440
Every hole is its own long green. Only putter. We'll go have a

278
00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:56.880
little downbeat putt popstroke putting challenge.
How about that? All right? You

279
00:19:56.880 --> 00:20:03.200
hear that? Probably Daniel win by
nine frogs and well on one thousand dollars.

280
00:20:06.519 --> 00:20:08.000
He is a natural. He won
the players bet, he won the

281
00:20:08.119 --> 00:20:11.000
stupid April Fools Open, the first. I don't want to gamble anymore,

282
00:20:11.240 --> 00:20:15.359
not with golf, not with him. He's a whiz He's a golf whiz.

283
00:20:15.599 --> 00:20:18.680
He's a whiz kid. Someone is
saying that we talk a lot of

284
00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:23.839
golf and racing and no hockey.
Yeah, I think that's true, but

285
00:20:23.920 --> 00:20:30.720
we're I love racing, He's passionate
about racing. We we all like golf.

286
00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:33.759
I love golf, golf. But
it's that's a fair point. I

287
00:20:33.759 --> 00:20:37.079
mean hockeys, is it? No, it's no less popular, I guess

288
00:20:37.119 --> 00:20:41.359
than racing or golf notes polarizing,
I guess no. And we have a

289
00:20:41.400 --> 00:20:45.799
big team in our city, but
just a big good team. Look at

290
00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:49.000
that all year we have they have. But I also just kind of look

291
00:20:49.039 --> 00:20:52.200
at it, like with the station
and the way the station's constructed, also

292
00:20:52.279 --> 00:20:56.279
kind of go, yeah, we
can let Julie handle that. I really

293
00:20:56.319 --> 00:20:59.519
do think of it that way.
H Like, I'm like, we all

294
00:20:59.599 --> 00:21:03.400
share topics on shows, sometimes not
intentionally because we don't really you know,

295
00:21:03.400 --> 00:21:07.640
talk to each other shows in terms
of planning specific shows, but like I

296
00:21:07.720 --> 00:21:11.680
really do go, like, why
should I really break down the stars when

297
00:21:11.799 --> 00:21:15.960
Julie can handle that this afternoon?
And it's not like they talk it talk

298
00:21:17.000 --> 00:21:18.480
them every day, you know,
there's a mention of the Stars once every

299
00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:21.640
two or three days on their show. This guy says, the only thing

300
00:21:21.680 --> 00:21:23.920
worse than the regular season hockey talk
is people who don't know about hockey doing

301
00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:27.279
hockey talk. Yeah, right,
like yes, I mean, and it's

302
00:21:27.279 --> 00:21:32.559
something. Yeah, that's kind of
how we feel about it too from our

303
00:21:32.680 --> 00:21:34.559
end. You know about coming in
here every day, Well did you?

304
00:21:36.200 --> 00:21:40.640
And there's a look, you can't
just look at a replay, a seven

305
00:21:40.680 --> 00:21:44.160
minute replay, a recap of last
night's game, a condensed version, and

306
00:21:44.240 --> 00:21:47.359
look at the box score, and
it'd be fake your way through it.

307
00:21:47.400 --> 00:21:49.359
I'm not that good. Can do
that with basketball, can do that with

308
00:21:49.440 --> 00:21:53.759
baseball. Well, look, it's
a world. You can't make everyone happy.

309
00:21:53.799 --> 00:21:59.880
We know that. But I'm open
to all feedback. Let's email j

310
00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:03.519
back for real and set up he
can call in he didn't know, but

311
00:22:03.640 --> 00:22:06.119
say next week sometime, and it
we're not going to argue. I think

312
00:22:06.680 --> 00:22:08.599
I think it's actually And we've talked
about this off air. Yeah, we've

313
00:22:08.599 --> 00:22:12.200
talked about like, hey, we're
not doing any stars. Yeah, we're

314
00:22:12.240 --> 00:22:15.799
not in a rush to do it, but it's it's a spirit of conversation,

315
00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:19.640
especially with the playoffs about to begin, and yeah, okay that and

316
00:22:19.680 --> 00:22:23.319
I watched a good amount of it, and they whooped their a too.

317
00:22:23.319 --> 00:22:26.279
They were up like five nothing,
and then I was thinking, what if

318
00:22:26.279 --> 00:22:29.319
they went nine nothing in honor of
Madonna? So yeah, I was drunk

319
00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:33.839
and stumbling down Greenville Avenue while you
were at home watching a statue on being

320
00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:40.680
unveiled. I had no ability to
talk about the stats A statue. I

321
00:22:40.759 --> 00:22:45.480
love Wobbley wobbley Kevin. Yeah,
it's so fun when he starts doing politically

322
00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:52.480
stuff. Coming up next, Big
D bracket. All right, don't miss

323

a big update on the sewage spill at

324
00:22:56.559 --> 00:22:59.519
