Sunshine on my shoulders. It makes me happy. It's not out yet,
though it comes out in you that an hour half Bananda's locked and loaded,
coffees, pork waters, We're good to go. Six to ten is when
our show airs. Don't miss eight o'clock. Don't just don't do it.
Don't make us warn you. Home is eight o'clock. It sounds like you
are warning. It's a warning. It's right, you're right, chick one
two cool, it's a warning. Sunshine on my boulder makes me slappy.
There it is, Kevin morning boss. Nothing better than the warm feeling of
sunshine on your boulders. Mikey, I guess I agree. I don't know,
or is that John Denver? And why are we singing it? One
of my missaters? You guys doing that I don't know about nothing? And
an effort to turn on the TV behind us that still won't come on.
You've turned off the one behind you, So it's as if you said,
if you don't get if I don't get to watch TV, then you don't
get to watch TV. I swear to god, I know this is nobody's
concerned but ours, but I feel like going full Elvis on that damn TV
behind you. What's the point of it even being in here? Everybody in
a work order, like four hundred times it got fixed. For one day,
God farted a storm on top of our building and it moved a millimeter
and now it doesn't work anymore. Yeah. Oh well, I was trying
to put on the do More with less, Kevin, that's the mantra.
Yeah, No, I can put it on there with my TV that I
bought. I don't care that much. And your TV looks like somebody threw
it off a building. Yeah, it looks like Elvis did try to karate
kick it and cause minimal damage. It's because someone probably did karate kick it
up there when I wasn't up here. But did that thing work perfectly when
you brought it in, Yes, And now it looks like one of the
like the whole left side. Yes, because someone probably was careless with it
and kicked it or moved the cowboys lost. Might happened that stateful day and
got really mad and punched it. It probably happened that fateful day that Mark
Stein came in here and ripped up the studio to shreds because there was cats
and fart machines everywhere on the day. I can't have this. I'll say
that bothered me, you know what, looking back than it bothered you.
Yeah, I know, but I'm kind of glad to have a hissy.
I'm glad it have start ripping posters off the walls. Well, he was
looking for the cat machine, I know, but it wasn't. You couldn't
hear it on the air. He didn't know that there's a high leverage interview.
Dude has a hiss. I mean, you never know, man,
this is basketball, okay, basket all a serious business. Basketball. It's
his life. We talked about this yesterday about sport being people's lives. This
is our house. That was the day that one part machine turned to about
fifteen the cat. The cat was the clinch people just lying straight to people's
faces. I don't know any wouldn't underneath the chair trying to do a radio
program and there's a cat, his headphones on and he just kind of takes
one year off side side, looks at the wall. That's incredible. Set
to not set to go off to at different times, one goes by the
time you get fifteen in there ten seconds later, row symphony. It's the
frustration of thinking there's only one and you find that one and it just keeps
going ed whipped to the corner of the room. Wait, where'd that come
from? The fat head grooves gets pulled from the wall on the ground.
Why did we not take any pictures of what happened? That's amazing? How
do we not have it's so fun video? Oh it's great of him,
just crazy eye ripping stuff off the wall. Oh man, it's good,
it's pretty good. He went full stein Zilla. I'm going full stein Zilla
on the Bin and Skin Show at eight thirty today. Warning for that.
You said that to us, and I don't know what that means or what
to expect, but I've not often seen the look in your eye that I
see when you talk about them morning. It evolves yesterday's story of the day,
which the top story in the world yesterday was guesses it was the parrot.
You're gonna have to do some resetting there, because I don't say world.
I don't think this was anybody's top story other than you. Top story
in the world was the parrot that was lost in Lake Lewis film More on
that at six thirty, because that it was found and that will be the
most important thing in the world today. Okay to naturally what wasn't yesterday because
it was a developing late breaker, right, but it usurped and overtook the
original mit. Yeah in your opinion, Well, today I have wonderful,
wonderful news audio from our local stations who have handled this, and this story
has taken so many cool turns and it's it's just great now eight thirty.
I will walk you through a chronological order of how this story developed over the
air and what happened throughout the day and Benskins show, and it's really just
been skin and Steve. We'll fill my wrath. Okay, now they're gonna
roll their eyes because they you know, they've worked with me for so long
and there was a power dynamic where they were above me in terms of roll
and pay. Not anymore. I'm Morning Show their Middays, My role higher,
their role, their pay, higher roll. Same wrath, feeling wrath.
Eight thirty. But also go see them at Pluckers in Dallas. Doesn't
feel like it's shifted all that much. Just wait, eight thirty. Okay,
Okay, your attitude on this should be you know what, Kevin,
I support it. No, I do, because you can get lumped into
this. Why don't want to be lumped into you? You don't, I
know, so I don't know how to handle this. But you you seem
to leave out Christino when you were listening to tackle who were getting annihilated.
Okay, was sympathetic and understood the gravity of the story as I was proposing
it. They were gonna come in and not talk about it, not talk
about the most important story in the world. Yes, they were gonna come
in and skip it because you know it was a late breaker at nine am.
I'm already getting concerned. Correspondence this morning on my cellular tole yes from
Steve Shackleford, the man who wakes up before anybody in the world. Why
don't you do this show, Steve at least once a week for one of
us. It would be way easier for his schedule. What are you doing?
Yeah, come do this, he screams with an exclamation point. I
didn't do anything wrong. That seems to be someone who knows they did.
Steven, Steven, you're gonna call him Steven and Benjamin and Jeffrey. Actually,
I don't think Steve did much wrong, but we will discuss the eight
thirty that's much so much. Would you like me to be an impartial or
on your side? You pick? No. I think you should be your
own judge of what is right and what is wrong? Okay, And I
think you will see once again that Kevin is right. I mean, I
hate to keep bringing it up, but eight thirty, ladies, that in
eight thirty is gonna be a tough segment to do because I'm following up something
at eight. I don't wanna tell you what eight is okay yet, because
I just don't think like it's it's a It is a real Drew carry Bob
Barker situation. Eight being Bob Barker, you could never fill the shoes at
eight thirty. Gonna try nine. We're having fun. Jesus, this is
great. March Mayhem, a guy I know. His name's Matt Matt in
Norlander, CBS Sports. He asked every college basketball coach one answer, who
is your favorite musical artist? Now, I've got a bunch of points on
the board here, a few multiples, including some three pointers and and one
four point bonus. Wow, the most picked artists? Well, I have
some callers come in, picked their horse and it'll be done in a round
of March Mayhem, which includes the thunder Round and Hailstorm, but tickets to
see Primus in a Perfect Circle and Pussifer. Like but not like three separate
bands. It's all one band. It's the members of those bands, three
different nights together. Yeah, you can knock this all out in one night
on April twelfth. Luckily Csantata or Csanta sixty it was two years old.
I thought that was where you went to get off heroin. That's the Sante
Center for Healing. Yeah, no, I think Danny's right. I actually
this is not that. It's not I mean sixty. I did look up
Less Claypool of Primus, who is sixty. Ah, so maybe many of
the primary artists here are sixty. Maybe that's yeah, that seems like,
uh, it makes a lot of sense for Pussifer. Look up the members
of Pussifer. But they have funny names. Let's see Maynard James Keenan,
singer for Tool Yes, and he is also in a Perfect Circle and Pussifer.
Those are things I did not know, and I can tell you with
confidence that on April seventeenth, Mayor James Keenan will be sixty. Okay,
yeah, so the sixty tour centa cool? That's it. Do you guys
know the first game of the baseball season is happening right now? Yeah?
I learned that this morning, first real game. I saw you Darvis to
strike someone out. And the first run of the twenty twenty four MLB season
has been scored, but not on American soil. Correct correct Soul South Korea
the Soul Series between the Dodgers and the Padres. But we do have uh
you Darvish on the mound for the Padres, and we have Shoheo Tani making
his debut for the LA Dodgers right now. Well, maybe later in the
show we'll get a live footage of the South Korean feed. Oh oh,
Tany's at pat Okay, it's too dangerous. Okay, No, we don't
have the technology to have just a man of a thousand voices over here.
If he can pull that off play by a play from the Soul series.
I've been brushing up on my Eastern dialects lately. It just happens, you
know, you pick up a few things. Sure, and we don't really
have the discerning year around here to determine if it's Japanese or Korean. Mm
hmm, eastern far East? How do we is far East? The far
East? Why would it be just like near West for us? Kevin,
Kevin, where did it start? I believe it? Well, I'm just
going with the traditional term. Yeah, you think of the far East,
you think of Asian countries. I'm imagining myself going all the way around the
globe to get there, when I could just shoot across Asians. That's not
how it works because of the International date Line and the land of the rising
sun and sun rises in the east, ah, all over there. So
you're right, that's the International date Line. I don't know somewhere in the
Pacific where the day changes. That's pretty rad yea. So like if you
fly from Japan to the United States, you actually go back in time.
Does someone have to live on the Yeah, because he went back in time.
That's why he does an age. It is weird that he does age.
It's weir that Fox did a TV show about him too. Here's a
documentary series TV show about Huey Lewis. It's weird that he used to smash
Madonna? What really? Yeah? You remember? Did you guys not see
the Weird of the World documentary. I saw it. I saw it,
you did, I did see it. He was Uh. They were trying
to get her to be one of the performers, and there was some debate
on whether or not she would be the better choice than Cindy Lapper, and
I think that a lot of the people that were putting out together thought she
might be too difficult. Cindy she difficult, not by watching that video,
not not by watching the docor I thought she was kind of cool actually,
and delivered probably one of the best performances of the entire recording. But Hugh
Lewis and Madonna were each other's date the night of the American Music Awards,
which happened the hours before that recording process began. I never knew. I
mean, I probably watched those ward shows back in the day, you know,
because the A m as were quite popular in the eighties. But yeah,
did you know that he Lewis and Madonna? Wow to Tanaka? No
tanakaatanka. I'm just practicing for later when I do the baseball speed to get
up to the plate again. Well, that's cool, is there? Is
it just like one random game? Are they doing a series of games?
Over there. What's the the soul series it's called? Oh, it's one
one mhm. Padres were up one nothing, but the Dodgers have scored.
Okay, like a sacrifice fly from Jason Hayward ties things at once. We
put for the Padres after an RBI single from Xander Bogart's got the scoring for
the season started off of Tyler Glasnow I'm gonna be tracking the hell out of
this all morning. Thank you. Guess who's starting in left field for the
Padres? Oh? My god, Jerkson profile, Jerkson profar. Okay,
is Fernando Tatis in the lineup? Yes? Bat in second? Right field?
Do they still have uh, okay, here we go. This is
gonna be tough, getting baseball mode here? Do they still have Manny Machado
batt and clean up, designating hit? Designated hitter is Manny? Who's that
lead? Xander? Xander Bogarts. Xander Bogarts Fernando Tatis at first base?
Oh? Oh, the swinging donger aeric cosmer? No, give me an,
what's the star with I can help here. His initials are j C.
I've never heard of this person in my life. Okay, go ahead,
then, cronin Worth Okay, yeah yeah from R E O Speedwagon and
then Manny Machado, then H Kim playing short Okay, I musta say we
okay, uh hey song Kim okay okay. Sixth Jerks and Profar seven,
the good Luis camp Pisano, Oh behind the Plate? Eight T Wade and
then Jay Merrill. I'm not clicking their names to get their first Dodgers now
Wade Skins, Tyler Wade, Trish is In Sould handsome, and then Jackson
Merrill. No wonder Skin has been so unhinged all week. Do you know
what time she's gone all week? It's a sulcerries morphs into the whole.
All right, you want to try the damn Dodgers. I actually do Mookie
bets. Mookie bet. This is the leadoff man. Oh for one with
a walk? Does he shortstop? He is weird? That's crazy batting.
Second, the guy that we've mentioned already this morning, the great show,
Hey Otani Show, Hey Otani one for two. I was gonna guess gugli
Oh no, no, no, that's the parrot Man. Three. H
Freddy Freeman. Yes, Freddy Freeman played first clean up for the Dodgers.
Is this a new free agent acquisition? I don't know how long this guy's
been there matter, Max Munsey, No, he's the catcher, uh I
WS or his initials Santos yell Wilson Santos. He may have slapped a single
WS slapped WS slaps catcher, God fucking jerk. I don't know Will Smith,
ah doy, he's catcher. I know that Max Munsey, the Max
Monzi, Justin Turner still play. No, no, idiot, No,
you don't need him when you have Teoscar Hernandez and right. Oh, yes,
it's it's actually the Oscar, the Oscar and the center field James Outman,
what terrible name. No need to pitch around him, James Outman.
I think we know this one's gonna go. Man, the Dodgers are so
loaded, they're just running him out there to see if they can defy odds
and then batting eighth right field. Guy's been around for a long time.
Off uh off, only with the Braves. Jason Haward Jason Hayward. Yeah.
Still still they're getting done loaded and then the great Gavin Lucks ninth.
Let's go through those one more time. Let's go through those one. I'll
say one of my favorite things. I'm gonna have to give credit to someone
on another station. Or it was Rangers opening day and I was kind of
doing wacky This is back when I did wacky stuff. I was doing wacky
tailgate audio. But the station had just got the Rangers rights, and John
Blake was not happy that we were doing live hits to me out out the
tailgate, doing beer bong hits and you know, talking yeah, because it
was you know, we're getting close to Ranger pregame show time, let's clean
it up a little bit. And so the order got kind of called down
through multiple people, you know how it goes like, so the guy over
there that was the show, he goes, all right, well, let's
say just run through the lineups. So he leads off and he goes real
slow and he starts out, I'm guessing the lineup at the tone though,
leading off Ian Kinsler batting average zero, really no home runs yet. This
year it's opening day, Michael youngbatting second, patting average zero, and he
started killing time because he's like, don't tell me how to do my show.
Slash zero, zero and zero. He went through both lineups all the
way in fool's funny. It was pretty funny. Who one? I don't
know, man, Probably not the Rangers at that time, would be my
guess, probably not, probably not. I have something real quick, you
guys might be interested in this. This weekend crap. No, this isn't
weekend crap. Something I saw the first thing I looked at when I opened
my phone this morning. There is an artist. What if I told you
there's an artist that has more streams on Spotify than Michael Jackson, Metallica,
and Mariah Carey that you've never heard of? Ooh, yeah, I believe
that, I'd say, K pop. Oh, I guess yeah. There's
a reason why you've never heard of this person. He's a Swede named Johann
Rohorr. And this is a fascinating ruse that this guy has going because he
has over twenty seven hundred songs that have been released under fake artist names on
Spotify. And what he does is he creates this instrumental mood music and he's
put like almost three thousand tracks of this stuff on streaming platforms, okay,
and they get added to like these, you know, calming playlists, like
these top top level playlists that you'll listen to for whatever mood you need to
create. But he does them under fake names. So he's got this company.
He releases all this music and they're all under fake names, like almost
seven hundred different artists and they don't exist. It's just this one guy.
And last year, just from revenue streaming alone, streaming a revenue from streaming
alone, and you know how little that stuff pays, he made seven million
dollars. Wow. He's like a volume shooter. He just puts out all
of this music that he composes and creates, attaches a fake name to it.
What's the benefit of the fake name? I guess I don't understand why
not have his name and be reputable because I think that it it's just the
because you feel like maybe you have more choices. I guess if it's one
guy, you may tend to not go back to him. But if it's
oh, here's this new artist from Sweden named you know, here's some of
the names Minnick Knudsen, Ming Mel Hush Says, Masia Hotel and Adolmar Berego.
I don't have any of it pulled up because it's what you can imagine.
It's probably really soothing, boring. Stuff. But I thought this was
amazing that this guy found a way to rig the system of algorithms and all
that and just put out stuff that he creates at home, drops it on
Spotify, works the algorithms to get him added to these playlists, and just
because of the amount of music that he puts out there, he's approaching Beetles
status as far as streaming platform download or listens. And they're designed for the
calming apps or calming sites or Yeah, there are certain playlists that you know,
he pertained to certain moods relaxation, you know, energy, workout.
Really yeah, dude, I mean that is pretty incredible that this guy just
out of his home is creating all this music and made seven million dollars last
year and nobody knows who he is and using fake names and using fake names
to do it like the artists that these people are. Oh man, I
really like this this you know, classical piece written by MiG Mel moot Mop
or whatever. MiG Mel moot Mop doesn't even exist. It's this one,
dude, moot Mop. I love it. I feel like I feel like
we can get in this game somehow. I know, dude, you can.
We can? We meaning you do it, just hold down, just
hold down one key on a keyboard and then add another key and call it
mood music. Just put it out there and that's just on your keyboard.
You do this, You can do this. Yeah, Oh, I feel
relaxed. And then and then dud like just volume. Shoot, man,
some of these are going to go in, right. I think we need
a mass release potatoes. I think we do too. Honestly, I'm like,
who, there's not here to anyone. You could be in any city
in America, hell, any English speaking city in the world, maybe and
beyond, because I don't even know. I don't think you need to speak
English to enjoy potatoes. You don't. But look, not everybody likes potatoes.
You need variations, yes, of that, to speak to different groups,
Like not everybody wants to be relaxed. Other people want to have music
for the workout. So you got to kind of create different different styles,
different genre genres, different topics, you know, and put those all out
there. But it's all the same guy. Maybe we'll explore that later.
I don't know. Maybe maybe it's going to be a day. He's going
to be a day, have a day like Wyndham Clark's caddy's hat says,
have a day, have a day. Well, have a day, have
a hot Carl. Whatever you want at your golf reference for the morning.
Real quick, did the Stars win last night? Just want to make sure
get an angry email Mike. Let's do what they want us to talk better
stars and stars them. We don't know. I actually invited the listener to
jump on the air and talk about it. Okay, hash it out on
the air. Absolutely will yell at us for not talking stars. I actually
want to hash this out with Jim on the air. I do. Is
the one that text us all the time. I don't know. Maybe so
play last night? They played tonight. So he likes us here, likes
the show. Oh my god. He likes the Sports Balance, which I
think we all love. Right, we love sports. We're just not going
to nerd off for no reason about it non stop because we have to.
But he, I guess, makes a point that proportionately we don't have enough
stars or hockey and what the playoffs start, we are going to watch those
games and we're going to come in and be like, oh my god,
that was awesome. Did you see this? I think we should hash it
out with him on the air, because I think my general instincts would normally
be to read the email and then make smarmy comments about it, and that's
not what we should do. I want to talk to Jim about this on
the Arab So maybe tomorrow we'll talk to Jim. Why don't we make Jim
our stars correspondent. Okay, there you go, So his complaints shows that
it works. Well, yeah, but he didn't hear that because he knowed
that he doesn't listen anymore. Oh well, let's get Jim back. What
I missed. Opportunity, Jim could have been the beginning of your radio career,
especially eight o'clock today. Give Jim a job where he works for free.
That's our way to get him back, get us back in his good
graces. All right, let's get let's start cranking it. Coming up.
Next, most important thing in the world. They found the parrot that was
in the tree and it's wild.
