When was the last time that happened? 10 00:00:35.960 --> 00:00:37.119 Do you remember that happening before? 11 00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:37.640 I do not. 12 00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:39.719 I don't even know. That's great. 13 00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:42.799 Dodgers baseball is actually over for the morning. 14 00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:47.840 Oh, I wasn't gonna spoil it. Spoiler alert. Baseball is over. 15 00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:51.200 Yeah, okay, we've had early morning games for football when 16 00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:52.880 they like play in London and stuff. 17 00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:54.840 Yeah, this one does. 18 00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:57.640 The game, first game of the season, started at three 19 00:00:57.679 --> 00:00:58.679 o'clock this morning. 20 00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:02.000 How long did they and I don't I honestly don't 21 00:01:02.039 --> 00:01:05.400 really answer this. How long were they in Tokyo to 22 00:01:05.640 --> 00:01:07.519 prepare for the time change? Because it's not like those 23 00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:09.920 guys just want to get up and start playing it 24 00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:11.040 three o'clock in the morning. 25 00:01:12.040 --> 00:01:13.319 They've been there for a while. 26 00:01:13.719 --> 00:01:16.879 They've been there because Mokie Bets isn't playing because he's 27 00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:19.680 got some sort of stomach something or other and he's 28 00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:20.719 lost like fifteen pounds. 29 00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:24.920 That takes a while. Yeah, yeah, that's crazy. That's a 30 00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:27.319 gas station sushi even in Tokyo. You can't eat that. 31 00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:30.959 It's a bad deal. Been down that road before. 32 00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:34.879 They got there on the thirteenth. Oh okay, so yeah, 33 00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:35.920 so they got their last Thursday. 34 00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:39.359 They really acclimated. Well, okay, good, Well that's exciting. So 35 00:01:39.599 --> 00:01:41.680 you'll get an update on Dodger baseball. If you missed 36 00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:45.640 Amy King's news, she was discussing it earlier. We'll let 37 00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:47.599 you know exactly what happened a little bit later on 38 00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:49.439 as we continue with Handle on the News. I'm Chris 39 00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:52.480 Merrill in for Bill Handled today. If you missed it, 40 00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:55.760 we are the war in the Middle East is back on. 41 00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:00.280 So the Israeli forces launching a large skill at tack 42 00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:04.400 across the Gaza Strip early this morning. It's the first 43 00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:06.879 major strikes in the territory since we did a ceasefire. 44 00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:10.159 If you'll remember that, that was the Biden administration, in 45 00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:15.919 conjunction with the incoming Trump administration, put together a ceasefire 46 00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:19.159 deal that was done just a few days before Trump 47 00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:21.080 took over, and so they wanted everybody in on that. 48 00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:24.000 So the Biden administration along with the Trump administration put 49 00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:24.960 together the ceasefire. 50 00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:26.199 They said it's going to be two months. They were 51 00:02:26.199 --> 00:02:26.919 supposed to release a. 52 00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:31.120 Bunch of hostages, all the hostages, I believe, and Israel 53 00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:33.960 says they have not released all the hostages. There are 54 00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:37.080 still I don't know fifty some on hostages left. Israel 55 00:02:37.120 --> 00:02:40.599 believes that maybe half of them are already deceased. Hamas 56 00:02:40.639 --> 00:02:43.479 has not returned them, and so they started ranting hell 57 00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:46.639 fire in once again. Dozens of Palestinians killed. In fact, 58 00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:49.280 the what did we did? You have a number on that? 59 00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:52.360 I was seeing numbers early this morning, four hundred, over 60 00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:55.280 four hundred for more than dozen. We're talking hundreds, yes, 61 00:02:55.360 --> 00:02:59.319 of Palestinians killed. And they said, of course, as as 62 00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:02.520 with any of these runs, women and children are included 63 00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:04.719 in that. So Hamas saying in a statement that the 64 00:03:04.719 --> 00:03:08.960 Israeli government had resumed their aggression. Israel of course says, well, 65 00:03:08.960 --> 00:03:11.240 this is garbage. You still have been giving us back 66 00:03:11.319 --> 00:03:16.000 our hostages, and so it continues. Now, what will happen 67 00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:20.919 after this is anyone's guests. We still have different opinions, 68 00:03:20.919 --> 00:03:23.960 even within this administration. We have different opinions with people 69 00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:27.159 in the Middle East. I think it's safe to say 70 00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:30.400 we will see fewer protests at college campuses because, as 71 00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:33.159 you know, if you protest, you will be deported. 72 00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:39.479 So it's all I got on thatt Amy King. That's 73 00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:40.319 all I got, Amy King. 74 00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:41.120 Oh, that's all you got. 75 00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:42.280 That's all I got on that Ammy King. 76 00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:45.759 Okay, so sorry, that's all right, So sorry, okay, Now. 77 00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:50.159 I'm trying to coordinate with will I got a ride. 78 00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:51.759 Home to get the best ride home. 79 00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:52.520 Yeah, that's right. 80 00:03:53.599 --> 00:03:56.560 We got a zombie attack, possibly. 81 00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:58.599 Finally, you know learn I've been preparing for this. 82 00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:01.599 Well, it's a different kind of zombie attack. So cal 83 00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:06.360 Edison now says that it is investigating one of its 84 00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:10.120 zombie power lines is a possible origin for the Eaten fire. 85 00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:12.960 Of course, we've been getting reports, well we've been getting 86 00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:18.199 reports since the fires started, really at the Eton Canyon fire, 87 00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:21.240 that it might have started at a power line, and 88 00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:23.759 so cal Edison has been saying, you know what, that's 89 00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:26.879 where you're saying it started was a de energized line. 90 00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:28.720 They call it a zombie power line. 91 00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:31.079 I saw the phote. I saw the video though. 92 00:04:30.959 --> 00:04:35.600 Right surveillance footage from an Arco gas station shows what 93 00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:39.319 appears to be electrical arcs and sparks starting from the 94 00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:42.519 power line that's in question, and now so cal Edison 95 00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:46.920 is saying somehow that zombie line might have been re energized. 96 00:04:48.680 --> 00:04:49.959 I don't believe you. 97 00:04:50.319 --> 00:04:52.800 I don't believe that there is a zombie power line, 98 00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:56.519 that the power line is taken on agency and has 99 00:04:56.519 --> 00:04:59.279 decided to repower itself. I don't believe that we are 100 00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:02.360 living in a Steven King novel where the machines and 101 00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:05.560 the power grids just come to life because they've decided. 102 00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:06.360 We're not there yet. 103 00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:08.519 Maybe in the future when AI starts doing things, But 104 00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:11.439 as of right now, I don't believe this. This well, 105 00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:14.199 we don't know. It wasn't us. We shut it down. 106 00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:17.639 How could we have done anymore? To me, it sounds 107 00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:22.439 like they're laying out a plausible deniability defense. And again 108 00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:25.319 not a lawyer, but it feels to me like they're, 109 00:05:25.399 --> 00:05:29.600 at least in the public eye, saying, what what else 110 00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:31.160 do you want us to do? We shut it down, 111 00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:34.279 it powered itself back up. It's an act of God 112 00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:40.600 or power God, something of the sort. Bulooney, bulooney, we 113 00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:45.120 don't know. I don't believe it, Amy King. I am 114 00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:48.439 the son of an electrician. I am the grandson of 115 00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:51.120 an electrician. I am the grandson of another electrician. I 116 00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:53.360 am a giant disappointment in my family. But if there's 117 00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:55.439 one thing I know, if you flip the breaker, the 118 00:05:55.439 --> 00:06:01.639 power goes off, it doesn't zombie re energize. And of 119 00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:04.560 all the places, it just happened to zombie re energize 120 00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:06.480 right as we have these wins coming through, knocking the 121 00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:08.480 power line down. I saw the video. It was not 122 00:06:08.839 --> 00:06:14.000 it was not de energized. I don't believe it. So bullooney, bulloney, 123 00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:17.800 you probably an In fact, I heard Amy talking about 124 00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:23.319 this too, DOJ asking a federal appeals court yesterday in 125 00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:26.279 DC to replace the district court judge that's overseeing the 126 00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:29.639 case against Trump administration deportment. 127 00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:33.240 So, if you'll recall the Trump administration. 128 00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:36.560 They called on the Alien Enemies Act from what was it, 129 00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:41.199 seventeen ninety eight I believe, And with this Alien Enemies Act, 130 00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:43.360 they then decided they were going to deport a bunch 131 00:06:43.439 --> 00:06:46.959 of Venezuelan gang members and they took them to El Salvador. 132 00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:49.720 You probably saw some of the news footage yesterday. 133 00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:52.560 I'm still confused because as they were entering into L Salvador, 134 00:06:52.600 --> 00:06:54.519 they started shaving their heads and doing all the things. 135 00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:56.120 They were dehumanizing is what they do. 136 00:06:56.759 --> 00:07:00.120 So they were shaving their heads and then they made 137 00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:03.160 them walk in chains, but they bent them over. 138 00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:04.759 Did you see that I did? 139 00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:06.800 That was weird. I haven't seen. We don't do that 140 00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:08.120 in the United States, do we That was all that 141 00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:09.240 was an Al Salvadorian thing. 142 00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:11.000 I think I think it is, And at first I 143 00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:13.040 thought it was because they because if they had the 144 00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:15.560 shackles on or something, but it didn't look like the 145 00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:18.480 shackles would force them to ben Yeah. 146 00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:20.399 It looked like they were being held in that position. 147 00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:23.000 Again, you notice the guards all had masks on. 148 00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:26.240 It was very strange, very strange, But that could be 149 00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:28.759 because they're worried about gang retaliation against the guards with 150 00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:31.240 their families. True, and if there's cameras there, they may 151 00:07:31.279 --> 00:07:33.439 want to say, you know, I don't I don't want 152 00:07:33.439 --> 00:07:35.920 anybody know that I'm the guard there because we don't 153 00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:37.720 want the gangs coming after my wife and kids. 154 00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:38.439 So I get that. 155 00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:41.759 Yeah, So what happens is he deports these guys. If 156 00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:45.199 you'll recall, a judge said, no, you can't use the 157 00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:47.879 you can't do that. You can't go in deporting people 158 00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:50.399 with the Alien Enemies Act. That's for wartime. You haven't 159 00:07:50.399 --> 00:07:55.839 declared war against Venezuela, so you can't just go use 160 00:07:55.839 --> 00:07:57.959 that Alien Enemies Act. The last time we used it 161 00:07:58.480 --> 00:08:02.279 was during World War Two. We had declared war against Japan, 162 00:08:02.360 --> 00:08:04.720 which is why we then rounded up everyone of Japanese 163 00:08:04.759 --> 00:08:08.720 descent and put them into tournament camps because we somehow 164 00:08:08.720 --> 00:08:11.319 thought we were morally superior to other countries that were 165 00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:17.199 using detention camps. But now Trump says, nope, I'm gonna 166 00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:19.639 go ahead and use that. There is no war declared. 167 00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:22.160 The judge said, you can't do that. What happened was 168 00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:26.480 the administration knew that this was that this hearing was 169 00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:29.160 coming up, so they hurried up. They said, everybody get 170 00:08:29.160 --> 00:08:30.920 on the plane. Let's get everybody on the plane. Let's 171 00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:33.159 get that plane up in the air. So they did that, 172 00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:36.639 and the judge said, no, you can't use it and 173 00:08:36.679 --> 00:08:41.200 turn any planes around. So the Trump administration is saying, well, 174 00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:45.600 the planes were already in there. What do you want 175 00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:48.399 us to do about that? That's not okay. We can't 176 00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:52.120 just turn those around their over international waters. So basically 177 00:08:52.120 --> 00:08:57.120 we're declaring a white house Ali Ali Oxen free. And 178 00:08:57.200 --> 00:09:01.440 so the judges orders don't count. And the judge told 179 00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:04.039 the lawyers this rather than writing it down. So the 180 00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:06.879 lawyers said, he didn't write it down. So we found 181 00:09:06.879 --> 00:09:10.320 this one clever loophole that all lawyers wish they knew, 182 00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:14.840 as though they clicked through a BuzzFeed article. And so 183 00:09:14.919 --> 00:09:17.840 the plane lands in Veniceona in El Salvator. Excuse me, 184 00:09:17.879 --> 00:09:20.440 that's how we get the footage of the of the 185 00:09:20.679 --> 00:09:23.279 gang members who are being bent over and shaved and 186 00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:26.519 dragged into cells, and all Salvator is very excited about 187 00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:28.480 hanging on to them. So now the Justice Department is 188 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:31.360 saying that judge was wrong, we should have him removed. 189 00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:36.200 So we have gone from you've heard the term judge 190 00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:42.639 shopping before, where a different plaintiffs could be the could 191 00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:46.600 be the government, could be somebody else. They will they 192 00:09:46.600 --> 00:09:50.360 will bring a case in a jurisdiction, in a district 193 00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:52.600 where they believe that the judge is going to be 194 00:09:53.320 --> 00:09:57.279 preferential to them or at least at the very least 195 00:09:57.519 --> 00:10:00.440 has some rulings that may favor their opinions. 196 00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:01.679 So you've heard of judge shopping. 197 00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:05.759 In this case, it is a judge return without receipt 198 00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:08.639 situation where they didn't get the judge that they wanted. 199 00:10:08.639 --> 00:10:10.200 They didn't get the ruling that they wanted, so now 200 00:10:10.240 --> 00:10:12.600 they'd like to return that judge and go pick out 201 00:10:12.639 --> 00:10:14.279 something and they can just use store credit. 202 00:10:14.799 --> 00:10:18.559 That's their plan right now, I believe. Are we up 203 00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:19.360 against it? Yes? 204 00:10:19.720 --> 00:10:22.960 Amy King will have the update on what's going on 205 00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:24.000 with the Dodgers. 206 00:10:24.120 --> 00:10:26.799 The game is over. That is next. 207 00:10:27.720 --> 00:10:31.559 You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM 208 00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:32.120 six forty. 209 00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:35.879 Do you feel safer? According to the mayor and the 210 00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:37.759 lapd you should? 211 00:10:38.679 --> 00:10:39.840 But do you so? 212 00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:43.279 That is still to come this morning Bill Handles Show 213 00:10:43.320 --> 00:10:46.320 with me Chris Merrill sitting into the padded room this morning. Amy, 214 00:10:46.399 --> 00:10:49.480 We've been talking about it all morning. That is the 215 00:10:49.559 --> 00:10:52.000 Dodgers have one in the books already. 216 00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:52.480 Yep. 217 00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:56.120 The Boys in Blue are back starting the season the 218 00:10:56.159 --> 00:10:58.519 way they ended last season with a win. The Dodgers 219 00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:01.440 beat the Chicago Cubs four to one today at the 220 00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:08.159 Tokyo Dome. Shohey got his first hit. Yashinobu Yamamoto got 221 00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:12.080 his first start. Freddy Freeman scratched from the lineup after 222 00:11:12.200 --> 00:11:15.240 batting practice. Not quite sure why Mooki bets out of 223 00:11:15.279 --> 00:11:18.679 the lineup because he's been sick and he actually became 224 00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:21.639 sick before the team left for Japan and has lost 225 00:11:21.639 --> 00:11:23.720 a bunch of weight, so he didn't play either. 226 00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:27.240 So I lost fifteen pounds. But it wasn't like it. 227 00:11:27.240 --> 00:11:31.399 It was dehydration. They said, that'll make you look emaciated. 228 00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:32.559 Today A really bad stomach flew. 229 00:11:32.879 --> 00:11:36.080 That is bad. Okay, Yeah, I feel terrible for that. 230 00:11:36.679 --> 00:11:37.120 The game. 231 00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:39.399 By the way, if you want to watch all the games, 232 00:11:39.840 --> 00:11:43.240 I guess sports and at LA is offering up all 233 00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:46.039 the Dodgers games. But I was looking at the price 234 00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:52.480 and I hate tell you this, but kind of getting 235 00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:54.080 host Yeah, it. 236 00:11:54.120 --> 00:11:54.799 Is kind of high. 237 00:11:54.879 --> 00:11:57.360 I started to read through this, notwent oh, I can 238 00:11:57.559 --> 00:11:59.000 I can get it on streaming. 239 00:11:58.679 --> 00:11:59.679 Because I don't have spectrum. 240 00:11:59.759 --> 00:12:02.399 Yeah, and I thought this will be great, and then 241 00:12:02.399 --> 00:12:04.399 I looked at the price and went, maybe not so great. 242 00:12:04.679 --> 00:12:07.960 Yeah, So if you want to watch the Dodgers TV channel, 243 00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:09.360 it's thirty bucks a month, or you can get the 244 00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:13.200 whole year for two hundred dollars. They announced this I 245 00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.799 think yesterday, and of course some people were watching the 246 00:12:16.840 --> 00:12:21.480 game in Japan early this morning via this streaming app. 247 00:12:21.639 --> 00:12:23.879 Okay, that's cool and all. 248 00:12:24.879 --> 00:12:26.960 What they're trying to do is make up for the 249 00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:30.519 contract that they have with the Dodgers. So they took 250 00:12:30.559 --> 00:12:32.919 over the contract. Time Warner signed this contract back in 251 00:12:32.919 --> 00:12:37.399 twenty sixteen. It's an over eight billion dollar contract and 252 00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:40.639 so they're going, uh, oh, we gotta make this money back. 253 00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:45.000 So according to the La Times, the twenty nine to 254 00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:47.519 ninety nine monthly price ranks at the high end for 255 00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:51.960 streaming subscriptions among MLB teams. You think, not only that, 256 00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:55.799 but I pulled up the MLB Pass to take a 257 00:12:55.840 --> 00:13:01.200 look at what you could get. Good news for Ann 258 00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:05.200 who's a Padres fan, and you can get the Padres, 259 00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:08.840 all the Padres games, all year long for half of 260 00:13:08.840 --> 00:13:10.639 what you would pay for the Dodgers games. It's a 261 00:13:10.759 --> 00:13:13.039 hundred bucks. There you go, that's three months worth of 262 00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:14.679 Dodgers if you pay monthly. But it's a it's a 263 00:13:14.759 --> 00:13:17.360 hundred bucks for the for the Padres. But get this, 264 00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:21.320 if you want to watch the Padres and every other 265 00:13:21.480 --> 00:13:25.080 game in Major League Baseball. That's the same price as 266 00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:27.399 just the Dodgers package. It's two hundred dollars for the 267 00:13:27.399 --> 00:13:32.639 whole year. So you're you can go watch Jackson Merril. Yeah, 268 00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:35.120 I gotta get I gotta get that Jackson Merril Jersey too. 269 00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:39.080 So good? You okay, I do. That's what we do. 270 00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:41.440 We have a the MLB package. 271 00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:41.840 You do. 272 00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:42.840 Yeah, so we can just. 273 00:13:42.799 --> 00:13:45.320 Notice your face got really flushed when I mentioned Jackson Merrill. 274 00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:49.679 You got he's good, he's good. You're all right with Yeah. 275 00:13:49.799 --> 00:13:51.720 Do you see that Amy tattoos? 276 00:13:52.039 --> 00:13:57.799 Oh tattoo? Say that againts? Oh easy girl, easy now, 277 00:13:57.879 --> 00:14:04.480 Nando took a twist this morning. I didn't see coming, 278 00:14:05.279 --> 00:14:06.639 and I'm here for it. 279 00:14:06.960 --> 00:14:09.720 So yeah, anyway, Padres fans, things are a whole lot 280 00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:12.960 cheaper for you. There are a few other teams that 281 00:14:13.039 --> 00:14:17.320 have exclusive deals with Major League Baseball, the Diamondbacks, the Guardians, 282 00:14:17.399 --> 00:14:21.240 the Rockies, the Twins, as I mentioned, the Podras, the 283 00:14:21.320 --> 00:14:25.080 Mets with that whatever it is Sports New York, which 284 00:14:25.120 --> 00:14:27.039 is just the Mets. But then otherwise, if you're a 285 00:14:27.039 --> 00:14:28.399 fan of any of the other teams, just get Major 286 00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:31.519 League Baseball TV, and again that's two hundred bucks and 287 00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:34.399 you get all the games. It's only you'd only want 288 00:14:34.440 --> 00:14:38.240 to buy this specific team if you're in in that 289 00:14:38.320 --> 00:14:40.639 home market and you're concerned about blackouts. But if you're 290 00:14:40.639 --> 00:14:43.799 somebody who's listening and you're outside the market, you wouldn't 291 00:14:43.799 --> 00:14:45.000 even have to worry about blackouts. 292 00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:47.840 Okay, shameless plug time, Yeah, go ahead. You can listen 293 00:14:47.879 --> 00:14:51.039 to all the games all season long on AM five 294 00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:56.240 seventy k lac oh. But the subscription price is absolutely free. 295 00:14:56.639 --> 00:14:59.600 And you know what I do dig listening to a 296 00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:00.759 baseball game on the radio. 297 00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:04.360 There's nothing better than baseball games on the radio. And 298 00:15:04.399 --> 00:15:06.799 this takes me back to being a little kid. And 299 00:15:07.159 --> 00:15:09.759 I'm going to digress here for a moment before we 300 00:15:09.799 --> 00:15:15.480 return base. So, little kid, it's nineteen eighty four. I'm 301 00:15:15.519 --> 00:15:18.200 six years old. And this happened year after year, by 302 00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:20.519 the way, but it was nineteen eighty four was special 303 00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:23.639 for me because nineteen eighty four I grew up in 304 00:15:23.639 --> 00:15:25.600 Michigan and that's the year that the Tigers won the 305 00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:29.879 World Series. So I'm six years old, I'm playing t ball. 306 00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:34.039 Dad comes home from work. It's you know, it's spring, 307 00:15:34.279 --> 00:15:37.919 It's it's into the early summer and he parks the 308 00:15:38.559 --> 00:15:41.679 He parks the Buick station wagon, the light blue Buick 309 00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:44.879 station Wagon in the driveway. He opens the hatch and 310 00:15:44.919 --> 00:15:49.600 we go play catch for twenty or thirty minutes every evening. 311 00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:53.240 Every evening we played catch, listen to the baseball game 312 00:15:53.519 --> 00:15:54.840 on the radio. He opened the hatch that you can 313 00:15:54.879 --> 00:15:56.840 hear the speakers out of the back hatch of that 314 00:15:57.039 --> 00:16:01.519 hideous monstrosity that was the Buick Century. And it's just 315 00:16:01.559 --> 00:16:05.240 a memory that bonded me with my father that I'll 316 00:16:05.279 --> 00:16:09.799 probably talk about at his funeral. So it was Ernie 317 00:16:09.840 --> 00:16:12.440 Harwell and alk Line calling those games. And I tell 318 00:16:12.440 --> 00:16:14.759 this story often that you know, we'd play catch and 319 00:16:14.799 --> 00:16:16.480 then we'd go inside and I don't know, take a 320 00:16:16.480 --> 00:16:18.120 bath or whatever I did as a kid, and I 321 00:16:18.200 --> 00:16:19.600 go to bed and they would let me listen to 322 00:16:19.639 --> 00:16:22.720 the local radio station. And this tiny little town I 323 00:16:22.720 --> 00:16:25.000 grew up in in northern Michigan, the local radio station 324 00:16:25.559 --> 00:16:28.679 carried the Tigers games. And I and I say that 325 00:16:28.799 --> 00:16:32.240 Ernie Harwell and alk Line told me more bedtime stories 326 00:16:32.279 --> 00:16:34.559 than my parents ever did, because I listened to them 327 00:16:34.639 --> 00:16:37.320 every single night. They allowed me to listen to the 328 00:16:37.399 --> 00:16:40.159 radio for five minutes. They didn't want me distracted by 329 00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:42.559 all that media. They let me listen to the radio 330 00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:44.919 for five minutes and then and then I would go 331 00:16:44.960 --> 00:16:46.840 to bed, but I got to listen to the Tigers, 332 00:16:47.039 --> 00:16:49.360 the Kirk Gibson and the Jack Morris, you know, the 333 00:16:49.399 --> 00:16:52.519 great team from nineteen eighty four. So that's I have 334 00:16:52.559 --> 00:16:55.879 a special place in my heart for baseball in the radio. 335 00:16:56.840 --> 00:16:57.840 I love that story. 336 00:16:58.039 --> 00:16:58.440 Thank you. 337 00:16:58.720 --> 00:16:59.480 That's a good one. 338 00:16:59.639 --> 00:16:59.960 It is. 339 00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:03.360 I just I get a little teary eyed when I 340 00:17:03.399 --> 00:17:04.839 think about that, to be honest. 341 00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:05.559 And that's okay. 342 00:17:05.640 --> 00:17:08.279 Baseball does that.

And then later today Sunny 373 00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:39.319 Williams and Butch Willmore, along with our friend Space Force 374 00:18:39.359 --> 00:18:42.480 Guardian Colonel Nick Hay and a Russian cosmonaut are going 375 00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:45.039 to be splashing down off the coast of Florida. That's 376 00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:46.200 happening this afternoon. 377 00:18:46.359 --> 00:18:48.759 Could you sleep, I wouldn't be able to go to 378 00:18:49.400 --> 00:18:51.279 maybe like trying to fall asleep on the plane, and 379 00:18:51.319 --> 00:18:52.480 I don't sleep on the plane. 380 00:18:53.599 --> 00:18:54.960 I would think that they would be a little bit 381 00:18:55.000 --> 00:18:57.519 excited for the journey home. That would be so maybe 382 00:18:57.519 --> 00:18:58.839 they just got rest. 383 00:18:59.359 --> 00:19:01.160 I'm sure that's what they got rest. 384 00:19:01.279 --> 00:19:03.039 But I will tell you that we got to talk 385 00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:06.759 to Colonel hagg Up on the International Space Station and 386 00:19:07.000 --> 00:19:12.880 he said that sleeping up there is the best, absolutely amazing. 387 00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:14.920 And I'm like, why it would be weird and he said, no, 388 00:19:15.000 --> 00:19:18.480 you're just floating. There's nothing, there's no gravity, there's nothing. 389 00:19:18.599 --> 00:19:21.160 You don't need to flip around because you're not uncomfortable, 390 00:19:21.160 --> 00:19:22.880 and he said, it's the most peaceful thing ever. 391 00:19:23.640 --> 00:19:26.519 So I'm curious about this because I'm somebody that keeps 392 00:19:26.519 --> 00:19:28.720 all that attension in my neck, and I find that 393 00:19:28.759 --> 00:19:30.759 when I lie down at night, I get very anxious 394 00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:32.599 and I will start to bury my head in the 395 00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:35.559 pillow I kept, you know, I keep pushing back against it. 396 00:19:36.039 --> 00:19:36.920 Same with my shoulders. 397 00:19:36.960 --> 00:19:39.359 I start to push into the bed and I just 398 00:19:39.400 --> 00:19:44.640 think what, I just inadvertently start doing backflips in zero 399 00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:47.039 gravity as I continue to try to push backwards. 400 00:19:47.720 --> 00:19:50.799 Maybe you would, maybe you would I. 401 00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:53.119
