It feels almost like the 40th birthday or anniversary or something. 400 episodes, Uncle. That’s what we’re at. That’s wild. Yeah, I know. How do you feel about that? just before we do anything else.

That’s one hit next. But but could happen continues on from there. It does. Yeah. Yeah. We’re at a humble 400 now. But even that is pretty impressive. I’m happy with what we’ve done with the show.

Last week we had a guest. So I’m eliminating when we have a guest. Last talk. I’m I’m I’m trying to put a little bit this in perspective. Yeah. But only when we have a g special guest. That was a great show, too. We had Bumline Bob on the show. Uh everybody should go back and listen to that if you haven’t yet. Bum Bob is a regular guest. So that was a lot of fun. We had Colt 45. We drank that with them and uh it was a good show. So everybody check out episode 399. 399.
But we’re here right now. We got the important business of dealing with episode 400. We got to make this thing special. What are we doing? We’re trying to get some callers. Start ringing those bells. That’s a good start. Yeah. Yeah. So somebody call in and Yeah. ask us anything or do whatever you want essentially. Just be, you know, polite. Don’t do anything too stupid. But uh call in and be a good caller and you’ll be rewarded by we’ll keep you on probably for a little while and keep talking to you. How’s that for a crazy idea? That’s pretty wild in the world of uh media. They’re just crazy enough to do it.
Walking talking about a medium. Now I want to talk about something that was interesting today. The astronauts came home. Oh, there we go. And I saw an people. I saw an orb come right by them. I saw the AB come right by them. You saw an or You’re talking about when you saw an orb by them. You mean that you saw a UFO of some kind? Some kind of spaceship went by him. That was involved with the Aremis 2.
You’re talking about the Aremis 2 capsule back from its moon mission. Moon mission. Moon mission. Right. Right. And when it did, you couldn’t help but notice that alongside it was was one was one was one of those friends of ours. One of those people in the government name ain’t no names. Mhm. Don’t know anything. They don’t know any stupid is what the word is. Oh, is that the nature of this conspiracy is that they’re the government’s too stupid to even know? I thought the idea was that they’re stupid. They don’t understand really the the the people that are coming. They don’t. No.
Well, I guess Mrs. Skick more knows about it than you. And that’s true. She knows more than the government knows. Yeah. More government. The way that you’re telling the story here. Yeah. Yeah.
Now, see, you have to forgive me because I thought the story was in reverse essentially. I thought that the government knew everything. They don’t know any of this. They don’t know anything about this. They don’t know everything and that they’re just hiding it from us because they don’t want us to know. Right. That’s exactly it. I’m I’m making a subject tonight. This is my subject for tonight. Okay. Cuz I’m in pain to want to listen to these guys understanding what they really want to know about us. This is what I want to talk about. You want to know what the aliens want to know about us, right? And this is my talk for tonight.
Okay. So, we’re I mean, that’s what I’m ending to talk about. We’re trying to understand what they might want from us, why they’re here, why they’re flying around the Aremis 2 missions return, which should just be right again, the capsule coming back in the atmosphere and falling in the Pacific Ocean, right? That would be the dull exterior version of the story. But what’s actually going on is aliens are watching it. Not just us. Aliens are also watching it. They are watching it. The government doesn’t know what’s going on. Yeah. They have no idea. They’re blind as a bat. They’re blind. They They’re blind to this whole thing. Yeah. You would think that they’d be on top of this, but they’re not. Um, so boy, there’s a lot going on with this. Now, once again, I’ll put out the phone number. You might have some interesting opinions or even information like uh Coast to Coast AM style. Do you have information to corroborate the story? Call in and tell us 319-5275016. Tell us about your encounter or your sighting of an orb. Oh, or you watched the broadcast of Artemis 2 and you definitely saw one just like Uncle someone. Why don’t you go back to that, Uncle? What did you see? What What did you see on this on the TV broadcast of this? What was there? It was a spot, but didn’t move yet. Uhhuh. But it did not move yet. The spot. The spot. It was a stationary spot. Stationary. Like, you know, like they were up there in the stationary for like two weeks. The space station. Space station. The astra uh the astro the fella, he was standing out there saying, “What the heck are they guys doing?” And this trying to learn a story.
You You mean an alien astronaut? Alien. Alien. Yes. Want to know what the story is with these people going up in the moon. I mean, I’m making a a story. This is what I’m making. We’re making up a story as we go along. And this is what I’m talking about about the alien. I’m I think I’m following this. Yeah.
Okay. So, ever since the launch began Yeah. The alien was there. Mhm. It was watching. It’s flying around it, I guess. Taking studying. So NASA was studying the moon, right? And the aliens were studying us, right? Exactly. That’s the whole point of the story. That’s the point of the story. Just what you just said. Okay. That that makes sense. I think Yeah, I think I got it. Makes a lot of sense. It It makes too much sense maybe. Well, to them to the idiots, I call it idiots. We talking about the government again. Yeah. So, this all makes too much sense for them to even understand. Correct. Because they they’re not about making sense. They’re about confusion and disorder. Correct. Exactly. Ordo Ko even some might say is what they’re up to. So, they don’t know. So, pay them no mind. Don’t Don’t pay them no mind. Right. But take a good look at the aliens which are there. They are there. I’m telling you. In a big way. In a big big way. Oh boy. That tells you. And matter of fact, when I saw one go by, who who saw it? Um Melissa saw your other half and me really have saw it go by. You’re talking about on TV or Yeah, on the TV. On the TV. You saw it doing that? Okay. But you didn’t see it. I did. You were blind too. No, I didn’t. Yes, I was. I was blind. You didn’t see it, but I did.
I’m going to go to the Tik Tok tic tac rather live center and see what we got going on there real quick because we are so everybody knows we’re live streaming. We’re on ochelli.com. We’re going doing the show out through there, but we’re also on YouTube, Tic Tac, Twitch, and Rumble. Oh, uh, we got a little bit of stuff going on Tic Tac. Not a whole lot. The Tic Tac audience isn’t too fond of this show. It might be the way that I think it’s a technical thing actually. I don’t want to get too bogged down with it, but but overall Tic Tac is great and they love us on T. They love you actually, Uncle. They love you on T. It’s for Tic Tac. To me, it’s just plain food. You see how the things go up? Yeah. I go I talk about food, they on on the money. They love you. Other than that, they’re not they’re not What? Tic Tac? You mean Tic Tac? Tic Tac likes the food. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But you’re you’re saying like other than food. I The food are standout videos, but we do good with other videos on there, too. Not some of them. Not as much. But I But not as much as them. And I know the top top thing is what I’ve been told. They are the top. The top thing is what I’m told. They want to see you make more lunch foods and stuff. They love that. You know, if we ever get the meat from the store to make my meatloaf, that will go over the top. We can get a lot of I’m telling you that will go over the top. Yeah. You better go in the grocery store and get the meat. I know. I’m I’m asking you. Not these ladies. You’re not telling me. You’re just asking me. Yeah. Yeah. Don’t ask them. They might I don’t know what they’ll do. They don’t know. When I ask for something, I’m asking you. Okay. They ask me, “Go get the meat for the meat.” So that way we know who to play. That’s me. It’s not them. We would never think of doing such a thing as that. Yeah. Cuz they I I their ears are shut. Their ears are shut. Okay. Yeah. They don’t hear. That’s all right. I mean, not everybody does hear. Hopefully the people are listening this podcast are hearing a little. We’re not asking you to hear everything. No. But if you heard something, I think we did our job. Yeah. the audience out there heard something. Uncle the podcast worked. I think that’s one of the main takeaways of the show. Not that I I’m not trying to, you know, put a period on the whole thing. We got to keep going. But I’m just trying to, you know, remember what it is that we’re doing. Yeah. And all can put this all on your taxes with the beer with with tax season. You’re really obsessed about tax. You do your taxes. I’m giving you guys’s money back for all this stuff that we do. You’re talking. Yeah. Well, the money that you spend, you’re going to pay back from the government from them ding pets. Uncle CPA is once again racking up business expenses for our media empire here and just making sure that nothing falls through the cracks. And I appreciate that. We do have to make sure our record keeping and bookkeeping is in order and that we’re not missing any important stuff.
Well, oh yeah, look. Oh, boy. Look at that. What is all that stuff? I’m being shown a beautiful desktop right now. That’s the That’s your just cluttered up with a billion different things. What in the world did we see with Mr. Sick there? Yeah. So, what the heck was that? It’s an example of what not to do with your computer, but that’s okay. I won’t not to do. I’m not gonna be too critical right now. What I’d like to do is show off mine, too. Show off my awesome Pokemon card necklace. Look at me. And uncle’s showing his too. Uncle, what do you got? What’s your necklace have? I got Tonnie. No, not a tiny. That’s Hideo Nommo. I thought Mo is back. Back from the 90s. Where is What’s his name? To show him that I got a picture of him around here. Dodgers pitcher from the 90s, Hideo Nommo. Come on. The one, the Super Bowl, the MVP. That’s right. Sure did. Oh, be back. What’s up, Jack? What’s up, Jack? Yeah, I know. I had a question. You know, Uncle’s a big fan of Otani. Does he have any Otani cards? Oh, yeah. Uncle, you have any Otani baseball cards? Do we have any of those? I don’t know. That’s a newer card. Now, your No, I don’t know if I do, though. Your card collection is a vintage collection. You have tons of stuff from the 80s and 90s, but I don’t know if I have him yet. Yeah, that newer stuff. I don’t think you have. No, I don’t think I have him yet. No. Go ahead. Sorry, Jack. Well, I don’t think I have. Okay. No, I have a few. And I was just thinking Yeah. I was just thinking if you wanted an Otani card that I could probably mail you an Otani card because you’re always talking about them. Okay. If you know, you know what I mean? I take a little party if you want to. Well, what I was thinking is you could trade with me cuz I’m trying to build up my What did you want? Yeah. Wait a minute. I got some I think I got I got some Mets plays. Oh, yeah. I do have Mets players. I got to look it over and see if I have doubles and I’ll send them to you. If we want, we could dig into the box right now and look through some cards. You want to get Hold just a moment. Get the box out here. You want me to get the box? Get the box. Okay. You keep talking with Chuck. going to get the box. I just have to go I only I just realize is okay. Yeah, that’s mine. I only collect two things. See, I collect uh uh OT Well, I don’t collect Otani really. I collect the Mets and Nolan Ryan. That’s all I collect. Oh, so I could hook you up with some of the cards that you like. Okay. You know, and Otani cards are all like going like crazy because, you know, they are everybody’s buying them up like mad. Yeah, cuz I have um I have the other one fine already done. I got this guy on the thing. He’s coming with the box right now. Okay. You got a lot, huh? Yeah. You hear that, don’t you? That’s my collection of all the old boxes that I have. All my cards that I have. This is craziness. It’s Chris. I got him. I got him going busy here. Oh boy. Well, I’ve acquired some older stuff and some new stuff recently because I’ve been collecting with Frankie just a little bit, you know, but it so happens I got Otani. So, yeah. There there’s a few I know we have a few uh med players in here. All right. Okay. I I have returned. Man, we have piles upon piles. So much that we could look through here. I didn’t know it was that much. Oh yeah, there’s a lot. Got these boxes as seen on Tic Tac. Boxes. Boxes full of them. Look at all these cards. Look. Look at all the cards. Look at this stuff. Show them, Uncle. Show them those cards. Look at all these cards I got. That’s just a small sampling. Small sample of Where the heck is the picture? What is this? This This is all here’s Fred McGriff from San Diego Padres’s I’m holding Padre Griff whichever he wants Padres’s Paul O’Neal Frank Thomas I got you through here now for some I don’t have a ton I was just thinking that I could definitely get him an Otani card. I mean we don’t got to spend the whole show doing this but I mean I was just thinking Oh that I could definitely at least get you an Otani card. I got a med here. I got a med here. Let’s do Oh, what you got? Who you got, Uncle? This is a Met. Okay. How does I got a mediola? Is that any good? Is that any good for you? We have plenty more, so you don’t have to say you don’t have to say yes to this one. This is just a possibility. No, Frank Bol Frank Bile is okay. You know, depending on what year it is, is no big deal. Uh you just take a couple of Mets cards, throw them together. Maybe I can come up with a couple of cards, throw them together that he wants, you know. What else do you like besides uh Otani? Yeah. What else are you looking for, Uncle that you would want as a newer card? Is there anything that you want for your collection, Uncle? Uh um Uncle is busy carding away. Well, Yamamoto, of course. Moto, but I got him here. That’s That’s That’s the other one. No, but uh but Yamamoto would be a good card if you have him. if you have him. I’m going. Is there any other modern cards other than Dodgers players you looking for, uncle? Or That’s what I’m trying to just trying to think. Oh, I’ll bound a few few Giants maybe. Uh, sure. Which ones you want? San Francisco Giants. They uh um I may wanted the catcher if you have them. Okay. From Florida State. Sure. Which one? Oh, you’re talking about uh what was that guy’s name? Posie, right? If you have a Posie. He’s not playing anymore. He’s not playing. He’s not playing anymore. Of course, I know. But I’m just saying that if you haven’t owned him and No, I can find you. I I definitely have some Buster Posie. I definitely have Shot Otani. So, Oh, I found a Mets. Uh Kevin Ster. Put that here. Put that here. A Tops card of Kevin Ster. Put that here. This is a year is Hey, look. Are you willing to part with any of your Nolan Ryan cards? Oh, yeah. Do you have Nolan Ryan up in here, Uncle? Uh, there might be. We have to dig, but I have to dig for He’s got to be in here somewhere. Yeah, there’s some there’s some hiding in here somewhere cuz we got a ton of in here. Let me put it to you this way. If you give me if you give me a list of names, you can throw in whatever Nolan Ryans and whatever Mets you want into an envelope and I’ll give you some of the name guys you want and we’ll just do that exchange through the mail. I’ll send it to Okay, okay. Well, we’ll just have to look for these. Yeah, we’ll do it. Yeah, no problem. We’re wearing our card now. Yeah, we got a card. So So So all I got to figure out now is a couple more names of guys you need. So, you got Buster Posie, you got Show Otto, who else you want? Uh, do you care about Mike Trout, the Angel? Do you like Mike Trout? You like that guy? Mike Trout, if you have them angels, I’m sure I got a Mike Trout card. Okay, that could be cool. I’m trying to think. Um, what about Bryce Turner of Phillies to throw Philadelphia in there? Are we allowed to do a Phil? You mean Bryce Harper? Hopper? Yes. Yes. Harper? Yes. Yes. A Hopper. It’s Trey Turner. I got them mixed up. Trey Turner. Trey Turner. Actually, Trey, you know what would be Trey Turner? If you can find him, Chuck, if you could pull this off, if you could do Trey Turner as a Dodger and Trey Turner as a Philly, that’s what I’d like to see. Oh, yeah. If you can get them to see if you can that way. Trey, you’re sure the guy’s name is Trey Turner? Well, yeah. I thought that was Yeah, I thought he was the Turner guy. Was Trey Turner, isn’t that? because there was there was there’s Justin Turner. There was one he’s not on it anymore on the Dodgers and then Trey Turner uh was on the Dodgers and then he got traded from the Dodgers to Philadelphia and he had a rough go in Philadelphia when he got there. I think even Barack Obama did a documentary about him first going to Philadelphia, winning over the fan base. You’re right about that. You remember that? Yes. Yes, he’s right. He’s right. That was Trey Turner. Trey Turner. That’s right. Yeah. Well, look, I’ll I’ll look. I don’t know about him for sure, but I’ll find you. I’ll find you the rest of these guys. Who else? Uh who else? Give me another one or two and I’ll stick them all in an envelope for you. Um, let’s see here. Who else? Um, let’s see. Another Philly is Schwarber. How about that, Uncle? We looking for Schwarber. Is it Am I reaching too far on that one? Not that one. No, we don’t want that one too much. A Dodger. What about Okay, because he doesn’t because he doesn’t have any of the new guys, right? Uh, no, no, no new cards really. Yeah, pretty much anybody knew. Yeah, anybody knew. Anybody new would take if you have. All right. So, what about Yam? What about Yamamoto then? Oh, yeah. I’ll take him. I would think you would be very excited about that, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I’ll take him. Moto. Yeah. Come on. That’s like number one. Yeah, I take them. Okay. Any new cards is right. Yeah. No, I got But I have a few. You ain’t going to have Oh, Chucky. You know what I want? If if you have this card, this is the number one card I want more than any other card. What is that? Sure. I want Steve Balmer, owner of the LA Clippers. The card. Is there such a card? I don’t know if it exists, but I want that. Clipper. I I don’t know. I’m not a basketball guy. I’m not a basketball guy. I’ve done a few of them. I got a few of them. Yeah. But again, this is a newer one, Uncle. So, I don’t think you have this one. That’s the card that I am looking for is card now. Owner of the LA Clippers. That’s Yeah. No, I don’t I don’t have I don’t have basketball really. I mean, I have like two basketball cards, you know, accidentally. Yeah. Okay. All right. That’s okay. I’m not I didn’t expect you to have it. I don’t even know if it exists. I’m just making up a wish list. I mean, they make a card of everything now, don’t they, Chuck? Yeah, pretty much. I mean, pretty much anything you can imagine has been made into a trading card. Uh, you know, anything from the I mean, you name a cartoon, it’s a card. You name a TV show, it’s a card. A movie, pretty much. You know what I mean? Uh, they have car cards just for Harley-Davidson motorcycles. Uh, they have cards for different dogs. They have, you know, you name it, dude, there’s a card for it. Okay. So, there better well be the Steve Balmer card out there in the card the Cardos verse. The card verse. All right. Give me Give me one more. Give me one more player. Who you got, Uncle? Who you want to see? Who else you want? Modern day. We’re talking now. Who do we have to have in card form? Yeah. I got to I got to think. And we’re talking baseball, right, Sean? Yeah. Baseball. Yeah. Yeah. And I’m going to give you some of the good ones like some of the you know, like the new shiny refractor this that the other thing. It’ll be, you know, all that stuff. You can look them up. Very nice. Players. Uh, how about uh there’s one about in Boston? Um, fist. Carl Fisk. Carlton Fisk. Confist. I I got Carlton Fisk. No problem. I don’t have There you go. You want a Fisk on? Yeah, that’ll take him. Okay, there we go. Carlton Fisk. Cool. Yeah, we’re gonna get a good collection for you. Uh, Chuck, we got all sorts of old stuff. We got old. So, here’s here’s what I’ll do. I’ll put together like 10 cards, okay? And it’ll be these guys you want and you put together 10 cards for me, you know, uh, one or two Nolan Ryan if you can find them. Whatever they are, they are. Yeah. And, uh, and Mets, any any kind of Mets because I need to rebuild my Mets and Nolan Ryan collections. So, there you go. And I have all these guys. The only guy I’m not sure about is Trey Turner, but I will look. Yeah. But everybody else on this list I got more than one of. No problem. Oh wow. Chuck, you got a good collection. You got started pretty good. Not really. I just got lucky with a couple of things like uh um early just like you know like cuz my son wanted to open up packs. So I did spend a little money to get some packs. I didn’t I probably shouldn’t have spent the money but it’s worth it cuz him and I are spending time together working with the cards and this and that. So, and I got older stuff, you know, for me in packs and I got newer stuff for him. And he wants mascots. Oh, yeah. Mascots are great. I love mascots. Mascots. Yeah. Yeah. And and they they just made a whole bunch like there’s a whole set of like every team’s mascot is now in this one set this year. But it used to be the San Diego Chicken had more cards than any other mascot. And now Yeah. But now the San Diego guy is the frier instead of the chicken. So yeah, we actually saw a game down there and I saw that character. Yeah. What he look like? He looks like he looks like a monk like in a like cloak and he’s bald. He’s got the you know they changing their tunes in San Diego. Yeah, but they used to have the chicken. I know the chicken. I got a kick out of the chicken. I mean, and in 1984 in 1984 he was one of the few mascots to get a card. you know, the San Diego Chicken. So, I’ve been trying to chase down the San Diego chicken card from somebody from 1984 for for Frankie. And I’ve been trying to get the Mr. Well, now they made Mrs. Met, believe it or not, but Mr. Met. You remember the guy with the baseball? Yeah, he Yeah, they got him Mr. Mint and Mrs. Mitt. Yes, Mrs. Met. It’s like Pac-Man. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Now they got Mrs. Met. That’s funny. Oh, man. Yeah. I mean, I’m assuming The Chicken and The Philly Fanatic were probably the ones that got the cards cuz they were the two big mascots back then. Yeah. They were the two famous the two best. And the Chicken Yeah. And the Chicken used to be on a weekly TV show uh which was for kids called The Baseball Bunch. So, The Chicken was on there all the time like as a as a regular on the the kids TV show for baseball players kids in like the early 80s. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So he was popular like nationally. Yeah. I feel like they had like a video even that you could buy on TV like you know those infomercial ones like the chicken’s greatest moments or something. I feel like I remember that. Yeah. Like and all it was was like 20 25 minutes of like the chicken running around and doing weird things and like you know playing around with with like other players like during rain delays and stuff they go out and like you know act like they were playing a game on the the rain soaked tarp or whatever and Uh, but the chicken was super popular for some reason. So, the San Diego chicken, which makes no sense, but they The chicken The chicken and the um and the fanatic both were top-notch performers and entertainers. They were they were great. They were hilarious. They’re basically like minds more or less because they don’t talk. They’re doing all physical comedy bits, but they’re they’re really engaging and funny. Kids obviously like them, but adults really like the good ones because they’re really funny and they keep you engaged at a time in a game where otherwise maybe you wouldn’t be. Right. Right. Like say during a rain delay, these guys would come out with a giant like, you know, oversized inflatable bat and they’d hit a beach ball and act like they were running around the bases and it was just, you know, it was something to watch while you were waiting for the game while it was delayed, you know. Yeah. So, I mean, but it was just cool. Yeah. No, the Philly fanatic was big. You’re right. Um, Mr. Met was not so big, but he was always there. And it’s just it’s just basically a dude in a in a cartoonish looking Mets uniform and a giant baseball for a head. And for some reason for some reason they made him into uh they made Mrs. Met now. Probably because Mr. Met got in trouble. Yeah. I don’t know if you know like Mr. Met like got in some like I don’t know ridiculous like scuffle with a bunch of fans or whatever. So they kind of put Mr. Met away for a little while and sent out Mrs. Matt. Seriously, that’s what happened. I can’t believe it. That’s funny. Oh, man. Yeah, the B Met controversy. They had to throw a minute. Okay. You got to do what you got to do. And and in hockey, of course, right now, all the rage is gritty. Another Philadelphia. Yeah. Another Philadelphia. He’s a weird nasty. Like, nobody knows what Gritty is. Gritty’s just this weird thing. No, Gritty is great. Yeah. He came out of the gates being popular because he’s just so weird. And the people in Philadelphia, I know they love him because I think I mean, help me out with this one, Chuck. But I believe the concept is it’s Philly fans are nuts. Yeah, it’s an ode to Philly fans, which themselves are incredibly gritty. They got a lot of grit in every meaning of the word and they’re just like, think about this. Yeah. the the Philadelphia Phillies, like their home stadium is one of the few baseball stadiums in the country that literally has a jail facility in it for like, you know, for like drunken mishaps and like people needing to like get locked in the drunk tank to sober up, you know. Yeah. And if if you haven’t lived yet, like it used to be closer to go to Philly games uh than it was to go to Mets games for kids in Jersey sometimes. So we’d go to, you know, like some people went to Philly games. I went to one, two, I think I went to two. And um you go there and like if you show up in a Mets hat, they’ll throw stuff at you and everything. Oh yeah. Don’t do that. Even if the Mets are playing that day, they’re like, “Screw you. Go home.” It’s rough. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So gritty. So gritty. I hear yike. Yeah. Gritty came out of that. They’re gritty. It came out of Philadelphia fandom culture, let’s call it. Yeah. And yeah, they love it. They love it. And I mean, I mean, and out there in Cali, I mean, you guys had the even the Anaheim Ducks and all that stuff. Um, you know, and and your mascots are just not as popular. They’re just not. Yeah. Yeah. No, the mascots, it’s funny, like the epicenter of entertainment, the the mascots just kind of fall flat out here. But I mean, yeah. Well, the chicken, the chicken was San Diego, but LA was Yeah, that was San Diego. But he right now, who’s LA? You could probably Who is LA’s mascot? Well, the one that pops out in my mind instantly is Rampage for the Rams. And he’s a Ram. He’s a big Ram. So, that one pops into my head. Right. What is the Dodge? The Dodgers. I struggle to even think of what their mascot is, honestly. Actually, I don’t think What do they have? Actually, I don’t think they have anybody. Not that I’m I’ve been to games, so I can’t think of what they have as a mascot. I can’t think of what the Angels have. They got something. Yeah, Angels either. Well, the Angels I think literally have an angel. Um and and like you know, pretty much like but it’s almost as stupid looking as the Jets cuz I don’t know if you ever saw the cartoon lookings like a child drew a cartoon and they made it into a costume and the dude walks around in a jet costume. It’s really stupid looking. That’s funny. Um, no, the Angels. We’ve been to a bunch of Angels games and I cannot remember an actual mascot. They do a bunch of weird stuff. I feel like they’ve gone Yeah, but no, they’ve got, right, nobody likes their mascot is why I don’t even remember that they have one. And I feel like they do different weird stuff cuz I remember being in the stadium, the Big A stadium, uh, in Anaheim, and they did this weird thing on the giant TV where they would show this monkey jumping around. Oh, yes. They actually Yes. Yes, I remember him. He was Okay. He was a bouncer. That guy jumping up and down doing one of these numbers. They would keep playing it and to me it felt like a standin for like a character mascot. Could have been. Frankly, I don’t remember. We’ve been to a lot of Angel’s games. I don’t remember seeing a mascot. I think it’s the monkey. I remember. I really think it was the monkey cuz it was I believe the monkey. But the monkey was only on the TV. It wasn’t an actual monkey in there. That’s what I’m saying. Which is weird, which is like they’re not doing the traditional style. And the Dodgers, I’ve been a we’ve been in a couple of those games. I can’t remember a mascot there either. No, they didn’t have I They’ve got to have one now. San Diego, like you’re saying, the Frier. I remember that. I don’t remember the Dodgers. Dodgers? I don’t think they had one. Come to think of it, I I did not never seen one. They I don’t know how they don’t, but like what the heck? It’s like if they do it some generic thing like a giant teddy bear or something stupid like that. I feel like you see what I mean though. nothing is. But even if it’s there, it’s not memorable. I’m just saying, you know, right? For sure. For sure. It might just be something with angel wings for all I know. I I don’t know. You know, anyways, I’m going to click off and let you get back to it. But I I I thought about that. I’m sitting there. You guys are talking about these cards and I’m saying to myself, you know, Uncle doesn’t probably have some of the new players he wants. I have some and I want some of the old players. So, I can, you know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. We swap them and uh and and everybody’s happy, right? Yeah. Yeah, that’s right. Oh, and uncle, you’re right. This is a Mets card that uncle gave to me that we’ll send to you, I think, Chuck. This is pretty interesting. It’s this one and that one. So far, it says fun at the ballpark and it has it says it’s a weird one with like three guys on it. It says baseball players like to have fun at the ballpark. This photo shows three New York Mets. Yeah, three playing for the New York Giants. Oh, David Conn is trying to block Jeff Inis’s kick. John Franco is the holder. Even though work is serious, this shows you can have fun at your job. Yeah. So, yeah, that’s got to be like 1989, 1990 right there. Yeah. Yeah. Somewhere in there. So, we’ll put that in your stack. That right there. I’m I’m I’m stacking them. I’m picking them out for you. Hey, and just don’t forget N but don’t forget Nolan Ryan. That’s my favorite player. Yeah, Nolan Ryan. I know I have him. You just got to do some digging, but he’s got to be in there. Got to be in here somewhere. Got to be in there. Yeah. Interesting character. I’ll definitely hook you up with some of the uh some of the newer finest like, you know, shiny stuff that I have. I don’t have, you know, the the seriously like big time cash cards. I mean, there are show Atani cards that are worth hundreds of dollars already. Um, but that would put him in an angel’s uniform cuz remember he started with the Angels. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I absolutely remember when he was an angel. Yeah, I do too. It was another It was another story. I can’t afford that stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I remember him starting there and he was he started there and and and and but he wanted to have a Super Bowl team wanted to have a game the Super go to the World Series and they found him in he founded a new MLB career in in Anaheim with the Angels. Yeah, I know he did. But that there was a lot going on with him when he got there. Like for one thing, I know that the uh California Asian-American community kind of like really embraced him like, “Oh yeah, check this guy out. He’s like, you know, you know, he’s like, you know, a representative for them kind of.” So they he was popular in that community. But then also, well, listen, uh, real real quick, I got to interrupt here cuz first of all, you could get some Japanese cards that are before he was even here, um, if you wanted to. They they printed some in Japan that are different. Number one. Number two, you know, he’s played for the international teams. He was in the World Baseball All Classic. But third thing is, get guess what? You have a caller on the line. And I think this guy is definitely calling because of the conversation we’re having. Oh, okay. Baseball talk. Baseball talk. Okay. So, well, get yours together and and we’ll straighten you out. Yeah, we’ll straighten everything out. Yeah, we’ll straighten you out. So, uh, we’re back to the call, but for now, let’s get this Yeah, let’s get this guy on the air and I’ll I’ll shut off my mic and you guys can talk to him. Okay, sounds good. Okay. Well, now Hey, man. Squirly here. And uh the Dodgers do not have a mascot. They don’t. They don’t. Oh, that’s what we were wondering. So far, they don’t have a mascot. And And that that’s just all there is. There’s you quick. You don’t need to look for the Dodger mascot. There isn’t one. I’m Why is that? That is a question we want to ask. Why is that that everybody’s talking about? Do you know why they don’t have one? Go ahead. Uh oh. I think uh the Dodgers, they’re they’re they’re trying to remain uh a little more traditional, but eventually I suspect they’ll they’ll get one, too. But here’s another thing, Erin, for you and your Philly fanatic. I put it in uh Chuck’s chat. There’s a video where uh Tommy the sort of runs out and kicks Philly Philly Fanatic’s ass. Yes, I remember that. It’s hilarious. I remembered that. You remember that? I put a video there in Chuck’s uh chat. So, yeah. Tommy Lord versus the the Philly, excuse me, fanatic. Yeah, I bet the fanatic actually loved that to be honest. like it sounds like something he probably probably played into. So that Yeah, that’d be a classic clip there. Check that one out. Go to the old Ochelli crack room. Oh, it is. It’s it’s it’s a classic thing. I’m glad I’m glad it made it to YouTube cuz uh came right up when I uh typed it in. You know, there several versions of it, so I stuck one in the chat. It’s worth watching. It’s hilarious, man. Sort of. He was such a character. Yeah. I’m I’m eating something right now. But uh but one thing I want to throw in is Aaron, you know that that videotape you were talking about they used to sell? I guarantee that Tommy Lorta kicking the butt of the Philly Fanatic was in that like in that commercial and on that tape. I guarantee it. Oh, it’s possible. Yeah. Okay. Probably. Yeah. Yeah. It sounds Yeah. a memorable one of those moments from uh that era that people remember and just from mascots generally speaking. So yeah, and and I guarantee that the um that the fanatic must have loved that. Yeah. Yeah. I bet he did. So Billy Fanatic messed with the wrong guy on that day. I tell you Tommy the sort of some of these guys are hard asses. The old school guys. Tommy the sort of he had a I saw an interview with him. He says, “I never forgave Jesse Jackson cuz in the 78 World Series, he stuck out his hip, deliberately deflected a double play ball that cost the Dodgers the World Series.” But of course, there was no replay challenge or anything back in those days, but you can watch it. It’s obvious, you know, if you see the footage, it’s obvious. They had instant replay, but you know, you couldn’t challenge anything with it back then. And Bob Gibson, if you know who he was, St. Louis pitcher. Yeah. Yeah. He kept a book of guys he owed a plunking to and he drilled some guy in an old-timers game and the dude was like, “What are you doing, Bob? What the hell was that?” Well, you’re in the book and I didn’t check you off yet. It’s old school, Uncle. Yeah. Yeah. That’s the way they did it. That’s That’s when men were men, Uncle Boys were boys, man. Boys were boys. Yeah. Yeah. And and baseball cards. Oh yeah. Yeah. Baseball cards. What about cards, Ed? You collect cards? You collect cards? I you know, I don’t, but when I was a kid, I did. And they were all in a square box, but I haven’t seen them in decades. I I think they went they got lost in all the moving around and everything I’ve done in my life. I think Yeah. Yeah, I know how that goes. Yeah, that makes sense. I had them had them just kind of rubber banded and thrown. They weren’t taken care of, but they would have been, you know, mostly uh late 60s and into early mid70s. That’s cool. Well, really early 70s. Well, baseball cards, but I I don’t think I have them anymore. That’s all right. That’s all right. They come to mind now and then. Sorry. I’m eating, too. But I still had them. Uncle, this is the show has become epic meal time. Yeah, it’s a me hour. That used to be a real big YouTube channel. I’m not sure if anybody remembers. Tic tac, everybody. That’s where it all happens, man. That’s that’s where the action happens now. And that’s We have a video of us making these. I see the Dodgers are up by a run tonight, though, Uncle. They are. Max my hit two home runs, two solo home runs. Got him up by finally hitting them, huh? My M did good in the coming around in the last game of the World Series. Oh yeah, he came around then, but but he’s starting out now and he’s finally hitting him now. Okay. I mean, I haven’t seen him yet hit one, but uh Who are they playing? I don’t even know. Who are they playing? Um it’s Who are they playing? I forgot. Who are they playing, Ed? Who are they playing? I can’t even think right now myself. Uh oh, man. I just looked at the score, but Okay. Well, they’re home. They’re back home. They’re They’re down there with you guys, but Okay, cool. Oh, they’re down here. Yeah, we should go up to the stadium and go check run. I haven’t been to listen to the game because I’m listening to you guys, but I did check the score. Yeah. Oh, they’re up five to four now. Bottom six. Last couple of minutes playing the uh Texas Rangers. Sorry. Last couple of minutes. Of course, you got another call. Do you want me to just add him in and leave Eddie on? What do you think, Uncle do that? See who this is. Let’s leave Ed on because we’re going to want a shout out from him. So, we’ll go to the phones and leave on. Yeah. Get shout outs from everybody in a few minutes. Yeah. Yeah. Hey there, fellas. Jimmy. This is Jimmy. Jimmy. Oh, what’s up? What’s up? Yep. What’s going on? Well, baseball’s going on. Well, what do you think’s what do you think’s gonna happen to Mike Rall? Mike Rall? Mike Rall? Who is that? Well, help me out. Who is Mike? Yeah. Are we talking What sport are we talking? But let us get into what sport we’re talking. Who is this gentleman? Patriots coach. Patriots coach. Oh, that guy. That’s I Oh, yeah. Yeah. I forgot that guy’s name. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Greybel, right? Greyel. Greybel. Is it Grabbell? Gra. Whatever. That guy. The big dude. Yeah. Former player. Oh, it’s the one. What’s happened to him? Yeah. What did happen to him? Uh, well, he him and a uh ESPN lady were very, very naughty. They’re both married. They were seeing each other. and he was she kept getting all these Patriots scoops these big stories ways they’re fooling around. Okay. Well, that I mean honestly I mean is this isn’t this just regular everyday kind of stuff? It is. It just happened to come out into the open. But it did. It I feel like this is the sort of thing that happens. Yeah. This is an everyday deal. When when something happens, it has to be shown on the television or Well, yeah. Now he’s in trouble because it is. Yeah. And and that’s what the B they’ll resolve this. I’m sure some sort of amicable sol am amicable solution will be arrived at and probably everybody will forget it and we’ll just move on with everything. That’s what I’m guessing, Jimmy. Yeah. Well, she’s been canned. Oh, okay. Well, that’s a good start. Yeah. Okay, great. I don’t know what’s going to happen. No, no, he’ll be he’ll be fine. He He won’t lose his job. He’s going to be great. No, no, he won’t lose his job. That’s that I know who that fire the woman. That’s good. I like this. This is the way things had ought to be. So, it’s good. Okay. Well, so do you guys think he’ll have to do a Tiger Woods and do an apology tour now and and all that? you know, regardless of remember when Tiger Woods got in trouble and you had to keep going on the mic? Okay, I’m really sorry. Oh, no. Yeah, they they’ll probably make him do something to that effect. Yes. Make him do that and then all will be forgotten after afterwards. I assume. I don’t know. Make him apologize. They should they should say, “Hey, they should do like Tiger. They say, “Hey, Tiger, we need you to get up about 5 in the morning. Make sure to take an ambian, you know, kick back a little little bloody Mary, get in your car, drive a 100 miles to the press conference. No big whoop. Doesn’t matter if you hit a tree along the way. That’s okay. You know, no big deal. It says other talent other than golf is Yes. crashing the vehicles. Yeah. Yeah. That’s a second. Don’t let second draw. Don’t let Blondie beat you with a fiveiron. You know, you don’t want that to happen cuz she’s mad. You know, just I take away a couple endorsements. You know, Tiger Woods has just been held together by duct tape at this point. I just Oh, no. I Did you ever see that? Did you ever see the South Park where they’re playing Tiger Woods golf on the on the video game? No. No. weed and it and it turns into like Grand Theft Auto where she’s chasing him with a golf club and he’s like, you know, smashing his SUV into a tree and okay, here’s my power up. Oh, I’ve got a I’ve got a new power up. Here’s a combination. Oh, how did you do that? Oh, I’m just going to beat you with this club. And then, you know, she spins and does like a crazy like Street Fighter move on him and beats him with a club. Um, it’s hilarious. Yeah, sounds pretty good. Oh man. Yeah. Well, oh, old Tiger Greyel. What What are we going to do with these guys? These guys are men behaving badly like Charlie. They want to make a comedy show out of it. They probably will. That’s what it is. It’s just a plain old want to make a comedy show. The old divine comedy. May maybe it’s a hiccup in my brain. Aaron, wasn’t there a comedy show called Men Behaving Badly? Or or my imagination? I’m pretty sure was I thought that was Charlie Sheen. Charlie Sheen. Charlie. Yes. Yes. Yeah. So, so the casting was great. Yeah, the casting was good. Great casting. You know what I mean? So, uh, so there’s this. Does art imitate life or does life imitate? My my favorite What is your favorite Charlie Sheen quote? Uh, Aaron, seriously, Charlie Sheen quote. Uh, yeah, it would be um I think it’s from his speech that he gave at a 911 truth event where he was just like acting like he’s just a regular guy. He’s like, “I’m just a guy that pays his taxes and wants to know the truth about my government.” Now, that’s paraphrasing, but it would be that would be the quote, and it’s bad quote, so I’m sorry. What do you got? Okay. My absolute favorite is he’s doing that interview and some I don’t even remember the question now because of the way he answered it, but she asks him something where he thinks he’s being asked if he’s by and you know, like bisexual. And he goes, “Am I by?” Yeah, I’m by winning. That just kills me. I’m by winning. What in the hell does that even mean? What does by winning mean? I don’t I don’t know. Still I have no idea. But that is I I could never have come up with that answer if I was asked that question. I am I by I’m by winning. He he explained the what happened there is when he was really like down and majorly on drugs. Yeah. Some friends of his thought it’d be a good idea to give him like they sent this guy that’s an MME fighter to give him a pep talk and this guy started talking to him all about come on man you’re like me we got tiger blood. Yeah. Nothing could take us down. Yeah. And afterwards he was all well clearly I took everything he said to heart. He says I mean I really he says I I was believing it there for a while. He says the death talk worked. Okay. But not the way they meant it for well I just I just found it hilarious that like you know somebody asked you a question. Am I by I’m by winning. He’s a he’s a creative guy. Okay. He’s a creative guy. I know. He’s got a lot of Yeah, he’s a character to say the least. But, uh, I mean, that’s impressive. That’s just impressive to answer that question that way. Yeah. Uncle, that’s nearly on Uncle the podcast level of interesting things to say, I’d say. Yeah. Yeah. That’s in that it’s in that’s in the comedy hour. He could be a good guest on this show, I think. Yeah. Uh, Charlie Shane would be a great guest. Charlie, you’re invited if you want to come on. How about that? Oh, yeah. Charlie, you’re not cancelled around here. Yeah, cancel. We can have a talk. We want to have a chat. When he was being cancelled and all that and he had been on Alex Jones, he did like a a YouTube channel for a little bit. And he had a private section where he’d only allow certain people to like be in on the inner circle on YouTube. Interesting. And I don’t know how I got in there, but I got in there. Oh, wow. Um, so I was so I was there and for a little bit I thought I was going to be able to get him as a guest. Um, and he was like but he was like out there at the time like he was way past any of the stuff that he was yelling all over the place and like he was doing that whole battle with um, Chuck Lori or whatever like he was, you know, like they were exchanging crap in the media between each other. Okay. And uh yeah, and it was just he was so unhinged and it’s just like he had cameras in like three parts of his house that you could like chill with him just like kind of hang out with him on camera. Uh and there was only a small group of people in there. Yeah. Sounds like he was early on in the live streaming phenomenon. He was really ahead of his time there, Mr. Sheen. Well, that’s the thing is he had the kind of equipment that you see in like, you know, these content houses they do. Yes, of course. Yeah. Who doesn’t know that? Charlie Sheen had like a one-man content house. I have no idea how he set it up, who did it for, nothing. It just was there one day and uh you you just had to be on a certain list to get an invite. I don’t know how I got on the list. Yeah, I’m sure he paid some some um competent media technicians to set that all up for him and he paid him, I would assume. So, yeah. He probably went to some tech guy and said, “You know what? and I want to make a reality TV show and I’m going to produce it myself and how would I set up, you know, the simple cameras to get started and then we’ll bring in a film crew on top of it and probably never got the, you know, film crew with it because there’s a recent uh Netflix documentary he put out. Oh boy, got to watch it, you know. Got to watch it. Yeah, it’s interesting. Anyways, it is the uh end time for the show, so you might want to do your shout outs and uh and do all that, Uncle. Just just letting you know. And I’ll be quiet. Who’s the first shout out we’re going to, Uncle? Who we got first for a shout out? Well, first caller was Ed, so it’s up to you guys. Go Ed and uh Jimmy. Okay, I guess. All right, Ed. Who you shouting out to? Ed, am I on or am I muted? You are there. We hear you. You’re on. You’re on. Oh, okay. Um I’m gonna go ahead and shout out to a squirrel. I had this little uh uh friend for about six years. I called her original squirrel. And there’s one that lives across the road that I know is one of her last of her litters. And I haven’t seen her since 2022. But this little one she brought around and got to know me. And I was out uh taking care of filling up the feeders and stuff the before work a few days ago and this little native squirrel come running at me. They usually run away. and she jumped on my leg, started climbing my leg. I said, “Oh, this is her.” So, uh, I’m going to shout out to little mama squirrel across the road. May she live long and prosper, like the old TV show says. All right, and that’s that’s about all I got. Great, Ed. Great shout out. Great to hear from you as always. We’ll talk to you soon, man. Take it easy. All right. All right. So, yeah. Love you guys. Thanks. Love you. Take care. And then we’ve got Jimmy. So, Jimmy, who do you want to shout out to tonight?

Thank you for calling, Jimmy. We’ll we’ll talk to you soon. All right, there he goes. Uncle, who else is shouting out tonight? You can go. You want me a shout out? Well, who else is on? I am here. You I’m gonna I’m going to shout out to the Philly Fanatic, the performer that is the Philly Fanatic, who I still don’t personally know who it is. Maybe he’s gone public now, but I know for years and years he was like kept his identity secret because it’s all part of the thing. He took the act very seriously. And I I saw the fanatic at um uh minor league Harrisburg Senators games. Sometimes he would be a guest and he would uh be there at games and so I would see him there and that was really cool. So shout out to the original Philly fanatic and his successor is doing a good job too. So shout out to you. Who you got uncle? Um um what’s his name? Want a shout out? Uh sure. Sure. What’s his name?
