Welcome to the Past Times. It's a podcast. Someone's finally doing it. You know we do here each week we go through a newspaper from a random date in history picked out by none other than Dave Anthony. I, Gareth Reynolds, have never seen it and neither has this week's guest, the great Justin Martindale. Hello, Justin.
C
Hello, boys. Thanks for having me.
B
Well, it sounds like I'm not trying to talk about off camera, but it sounds like you've had a very busy morning already. So thank you.
C
Yes.
B
For fitting us in.
C
Of course, of course.
B
Things are happening over there.
C
Well, yeah, you know, it's. I mean, I think the town's on fire again. So.
B
Yeah. I drove by a like many trees burning on the freeway yesterday. It looked very fresh and I. All of us were like, oh, that's got to keep going. But that it bad. Yeah. Not good. Yeah.
C
It is a Wednesday. So if the town's not burning, what are we doing?
D
That's right.
B
And then isn't it strange as you continue to go through this business, you start wondering, should I be bothering these? Are this the business takes a while. Do we have two years to let things develop?
C
You know what's so funny is that I saw this morning there was some Instagram video of this, of this woman being like, I guess there's like this radioactive field here in Los Angeles.
B
I was texting Dave about it yesterday. Yeah.
C
And I'm like, if that catches on fire. And I'm like, can I just, can I just have coffee first before like onset panic sets in about. Because I know my mom's going to hear that story and it's going to be brutal. The amount of like worry, like, get out. Save yourself. You're going to mute.
B
Get out. Get out. Might not be the right move. Stay in.
C
I know I stay in. Yeah. I'm like, if I get mutant powers, then maybe.
B
Yeah, but like, I like that for you.
D
I lived in northern LA county for like 10 years and I want to say three times now they've been like that, that radioactive place is going to burn down. This is the third time.
B
Well, I guess. All right, look, let's Not Monday morning quarterback. But the lesson might be. Burying it is not the move.
D
No, no, it's good.
B
And we got to go further if we're going to. Maybe. I don. No, I don't have the solve.
D
I have an idea. I have a solve. Set it on fire.
B
Well, that's the. That's God's. God's doing that. Speaking of God, Justin, you're MAGA and into religion. What. What. What can we promote for you? You have your. I've been on your podcast. I don't know if you remembered. On your podcast. I DM'd Britney Spears. Never heard back. Yes, you did. Where can people listen to your podcast? What? How do you explain your podcast? It's kind of like a. A pop culture chat fest.
C
It's like a pop culture chat fest with, like, comics and people who are in the entertainment industry, friends of mine, and we just kind of sit and kind of go through pop culture today, pop culture, yesteryear, kind of topics that are circulating throughout our never ending vicious news cycle. So it's just kind of like, you know, we. We have gay, straight, all of it.
B
And it's just kind of no buy, though. You. You refuse the bi community.
C
I. I do not stand with the bi community.
B
Make a choice. You've always. And I'm reading here, you've called them wishy washy. Do you stand by that?
C
That was a quote taken out of context. Okay, okay. No, everyone, everyone, everyone is welcome. It's just fun to, like, sit down and. And chat with people who actually either know what I'm talking about or don't know what I'm talking about and then, like, informing them and on it so.
B
Well.
C
Yeah, we have a good time.
B
It is a hilarious show.
C
And it's called Just Saying with Justin Martindale. Yeah.
B
Yeah. And. And I've not heard back from Brittany. If I. If I do, we will update things there. You've got big Hollywood meetings. But, Justin, you're not here to brag.
D
I think he is.
C
No.
B
Even though you are quite braggadocia. We're gonna go through an old stinky newspaper, and Dave has it now. Hold on a second. Justin. Dave's done something to his finger. Why are you medically.
D
You know what I did? I. I put together a little shed thing in my backyard.
B
Dave put together a shed, and my finger hurt afterwards.
D
I must have tweaked it somehow. And then I looked at it last night, and it was like. It was like, just swallowed up. The tip of.
B
It was just like, could be that nuclear Smoke.
D
It could be going right. I did go by and swear, man. I dipped my middle finger in.
B
That's what it is. Able to tell people to off. It's like the big fake hitchhiker thumb.
D
You can see it now.
B
It's very clear. All right, Justin, so you will. We're going to guess what year this paper will be from. It doesn't really matter. There's no context, no real point to why we do this, honestly. But there's, like, we were alluding to earlier. There's no real point to anything. So why poke holes here?
D
Can I just say I. I stopped paying attention to celebrities because there's so many of them, I couldn't keep track anymore.
B
Well, has anyone ever pitched.
D
Is that just me?
B
Podcast less, Justin.
D
No, but I really. At one point, I was just like, I can't keep track of everybody.
C
Oh, yeah, no, no, no. It's. It's. It's a whole thing. And it's. It's interesting because I'll. I'll get people who were like, yeah, we want to come to your podcast. And I'm like, who.
B
Oh, the best.
D
Who are you?
C
Yeah, you're the guy who cracked a watermelon in between his legs. All right.
B
I had him on one of my podcasts.
D
He's great.
B
So. Yeah, but then. And then you'll be like, who the fuck is. And then you'll be like, 4.1 million followers. Who is this? What's happening?
D
Yeah, that's right.
B
You're still trying to get clavicular on oh, what a.
C
What a jazz.
B
We said the show's called Paper Maxing.
D
Clavicular is clearly going to have a very long life, I think.
C
Yeah, clearly.
B
Yeah, he's doing real good.
C
He's. He's the hottest. He's the hottest person with mental illness, I think, that we've ever seen.
B
I don't know. I've always.
C
You know what I mean?
B
Well, I just. I don't see a downside to malleting your head.
D
No, it's fine.
C
Well, and that. That's what blows my mind, too, about clavicular. It's just like, what girl in their right mind was like, he took a hammer to his face.
B
I think he. I think there was one where he was, like, hammering a girl's fit.
D
I just.
B
Yeah, no, it's. That's not good.
C
That's what every dad wants to hear. You know?
B
I mean, it's every. Every strange day and age where, like, if you. If you're. If your partner shows up With a black eye. And you say I hit her with a hammer. That's makes sense.
D
Yeah. You're like, well, I wanted her to be hot now.
B
Yeah. I hammered her.
D
Every Christmas. I would buy him a new hammer if I knew.
C
Yeah. Proms next week. We gotta make sure she's chiseled.
D
Ready to go.
B
All right, Justin, you're gonna guess what year this paper's from. Could be 1700s, could be 1800s, could be 1900s. We did a thousand ones, but no context. Shot in the dark. Guess Dave's gonna say you win. Probably because he's, you know, he's mentally.
D
Hey, you need to. You need to calm down.
B
Okay? Go ahead, Justin. I'll guess after you.
C
So I'm throwing out. I'm throwing out a year of what? This. Random.
D
Random. You just. It's a random. It's like.
C
Okay, the. The year that's coming to mind. I'm feeling 1863.
B
It's a great guess. It's a great guess. I love the guess.
C
We'll see.
B
Country Western, 1908.
D
Oh, you're too close. So you lose. It is 1930.
B
Oh, Justin wins.
C
It was my next guess.
B
Justin.
D
It was. Whoever was closer loses. That was the rule. December 11th.
B
The people that before they.
D
Well, part of it's the mystery of what the rules are. I don't think that's December 11, 1930. Los Angeles, California.
C
Golden age.
B
Yeah. Hell, yeah.
D
The daily news.
B
Wait. 1930s. It's a tough time.
D
It was 2 cents, 2 cent.
B
This is when it was the MTV building.
D
2 cents?
C
Yeah.
B
2 cents a paper.
D
2 cents a paper.
B
Wow.
D
Things are different.
B
Yeah.
D
How much is a paper now? Do they even have them still buy one. Can you buy a paper at, like, the. Is there other paper stands?
B
Like, I don't have?
C
No, I think they're all gone.
B
I think it's over.
D
I think if it's over.
B
That's crazy. Those newsstand guys, though, they needed a knockdown.
D
Yeah, they really.
B
They were real cocky. Not a library. Well, guess what? It's not now anything
D
now.
C
It's a wall.
B
Now it's just a wall.
D
White men's advent to be commemorated finally.
B
It was called January 6th.
D
Yeah, I love that they're getting money.
C
Sounds familiar.
B
Justin, you were at January 6th, right?
C
You know what? Allegedly.
B
Allegedly. Oh, you still won't go on record because there's a lot of pictures of you. I've seen some stuff, and you really. There's someone who looks like you being quite active in the crow.
C
Well, you know what? I. I was like, the lookout. I was the one who kind of told the guy, like, hey, go take a. In Nancy Pelosi's chair. I didn't know he was actually gonna do it, but it was just, like, at the time, it was just something that I was workshopping.
D
Yeah, you're a little bit of a whisperer for the whole group. Yeah.
C
Well, I heard. I heard they were proud boys. And I was like, oh, I love Pride Month. And it was totally different. Totally different things.
B
Yeah, you were just at a. Confused. It was a confusing event in many ways. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay.
D
There was a whole group of, like, flags over in the corner, and they're like, what?
B
Wait a minute, I don't understand.
C
Yeah. When's Kylie Minogue coming out? Yeah, we didn't know.
B
We understand the elk guy. The rest. It's a little confusing. All right.
D
In commemoration of the arrival of the first white man in Los Angeles.
B
Wow.
C
The first. The first. Why is he like Christopher Columbus of la?
B
Just. The white culture is phenomenal.
D
It's awesome.
B
Just endlessly fascinating. It's a shame it's so damaging because it is quite hilarious.
D
The daughters. The daughters of the American colonists today will unveil a bronze marker at north. The north Broadway entrance to Elysian Park. Oh, God, I wish that was still there. It'd be amazing if that was still there.
B
Just a. Just. I mean, we have statues of white guys all over, so I mean, it's just.
C
I mean. Hello?
B
Yeah.
D
It's a marker. So I think they all.
C
The new one.
D
Yeah.
B
Yeah, but that one makes sense. That's a good one.
C
Well, this the one. The one that was bronze, right?
B
Yeah.
C
The new one is. It's pure gold.
B
Pure.
C
The purest of gold.
B
100 gold. Beautiful gold.
D
Like the phones.
B
Yeah. And the crot. Big crotch tight. Yeah.
C
Hot.
D
Hot ass.
B
Hot ass statue. You're gonna. They're gonna need to build a wall around that to stop the groping, because everybody wants a piece of that.
C
Oh, I want to. I want to rub it. I want to tarnish it.
B
Yeah.
D
The ceremonies scheduled for 2pm are to perpetuate the arrival of Gaspar de Portola and father Crespi in 1760. Crespi. There's a Crespi High school.
B
Is there a Crespi High School in la?
D
Yeah.
B
That's weird.
D
Really expensive.
B
Well, I mean, he was. He was first. It's also not the tradition I would expect, like, Bruce Anderson, but.
D
Yeah, there weren't a lot of Bruce Anderson.
B
Right.
D
It was early explorers.
B
Right. There should have been more.
D
More Father. A lot of Father Crispy.
B
A lot of. A little too many foreigners walk in the land at those times for my liking, to be honest with you. Give me a. Give me a Jeff Tucker. You know what I mean? I hear you. Instead we got Nicolays and Crespies. Oh, yeah, let me finish making a very good point.
D
Where did Nick.
B
Where did Nicolays explore the Nicolays? They were big. They're, well, river folk, obviously. Justin, you can jump in here whenever. But if they were river people, the Nicolays were big. Yeah, river folk. Nicolay Vineyard is unbelievable. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Go ahead. Get back into the thing.
D
Back to this. Okay.
B
We've flexed. We flexed enough on it.
D
I will go on to the next story. Airport Watchdog to stay on the job.
B
Thank God. I really feels that so far, the. I mean, that feels very apropos today because they are now training. I read they were training less air traffic controllers. I didn't read anything.
D
Do we need less of those?
B
I don't know. There was like the. The pitch was like, trust us, this is the right.
D
Oh. Because they're going to use AI.
B
Good. That's good.
D
Everybody okay?
C
Then they were like, this dog is going to make sure that everyone's okay.
B
Yeah, no, there's a lot of that. Yeah.
C
If you're flying. If you're flying in the 1930s, you have less to worry about with a dog making sure you're okay.
B
That's right. Yeah. Not the.
C
Not. Not the tin can of a 1930s airplane flying through the sky.
D
But.
B
Well, it might be a better. We might be getting back there. It might be a better system than today. Did you see the guy who ran on the Jetway and jumped through a jet engine?
D
Oh, I don't think you're supposed to do that. Yeah, that's. That's.
C
Yeah, I was.
D
That's frowned upon.
C
Jealous.
B
Yeah, I do. I kind of. What I like about that move is that you're like to go out, like being a delay on an airplane. I feel there's some nice karmic justice.
D
I mean, what if that became a thing, though?
B
If that became a thing?
D
That would be. That would be really something.
B
Ladies and gentlemen, we're gonna have to return to the gate.
D
Unfortunately, we've been lared.
B
We've had another guy jump through the engine.
C
Could you imagine the pilot just being like, not again. Not again.
B
One on each side.
D
What?
B
How.
C
Why does this keep happening to me?
B
Good Lord.
C
Now, the irony would have been if it was a spirit Airlines. Then that guy actually became a spirit. That would be.
D
Oh, my God.
B
If they only did it through spir.
D
What if they think that that's how they get down?
B
It was like. Like how younger people are storming Scientology. It would be very funny to pick out an airline that you only jump into their engines. Oh, yeah, yeah. Just United.
D
That's the first one I thought of. United.
B
Although the engines are so rickety, you probably just get like a little. You get a Dave finger. That's all you get.
C
Yeah, that's actually what happened to your finger. Yeah, you stuck it in the engine
D
right in the airplane. Teague, faithful guardian of the Los Angeles airport, will be kept on the job as an assistant to the night watchman, even if he does not eat hamburger, eggs and milk to the extent of 952 monthly. City Council has decided. What in the just happened?
B
Who. Who's eating the hamburger?
D
This is like we. We had to know stuff coming into the story, and we don't know it. Okay. Yeah, it sounds like the dog is eating. Eating hamburgers, eggs, and milk, but I don't know why the nine monthly is there. Oh, here we go. The dog became of some significance recently when the interstate company presented a bill for 952following a month supply of food for the animal.
B
Oh, that's what it was. This dog eats $952 worth of food a month.
D
That's actually. No. $9.50.
B
Thank you.
D
Yeah, sorry. I should work.
B
Good work. Yep.
C
900. That's. Now those are grocery prices now.
B
That's the farm. That's the farmer's dog. Every time I see the farmer's dog, I'm like, I could eat that 100. I can eat that bag of dog food.
D
Farmer's dog.
B
Yeah.
D
What is that?
B
It's like fan. It's rich person dog food.
D
Oh, yeah.
B
That's where you open a bag and it looks basically like. Yeah, it looks like you. If you added, like, broth, you could make a soup.
D
My dog and I might make a soup. My dogs get the minestrone.
B
Yeah, yeah. It looks. It's stroney. It's kind of split pe. Ish. Looks British.
D
Yeah. I don't know why. I don't know why your animal would want that. Maybe.
B
Well, live longer. That's the.
D
I think. Because I just took my dog to the vet and they were like, this thing looks great.
B
It doesn't sound like a good vet.
D
Looks great.
B
It doesn't sound like a good.
D
Well, they look at the inside.
B
You don't sound like a good patient,
D
and they don't sound like good vets when they take. When they take the dog and. And pull it inside out to look at the inside. They did that.
B
Come on now.
D
Oh, I'm thinking of an X ray.
B
Never mind. That's after these fires.
D
Did you. Did I tell you what happened? That I took my dog to the vent?
B
You just did. Yeah.
D
You forget yesterday? Because it was like, yelping and shaking, and I was like, oh, God.
B
Your dog was yelping. It was like, do not go to this vet.
D
This guy's the worst at a sore neck. $750.
B
The dog had a sore neck.
D
Sore neck. $750.
B
Imagine that price of 1930. Go ahead.
C
$7 and 50 cents exactly.
D
Mystery man at Chinese Theater. Very sensational.
B
That's not. That means racist. 1930s. Sensational. Was racist.
D
100. Racist.
B
He was sensational. Tirade.
D
One of the most.
B
He did the eyes and everything.
D
Or maybe it's talking about the weird Batman guy that hangs out down there that.
B
Have you ever seen that documentary on those people?
D
I almost got a fight with him.
B
Yeah, you have.
C
The Superman guy.
B
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
C
I remember that guy.
B
I do too.
C
Poor thing.
B
Yeah, you do feel bad, but there. There are a couple of moments when Superman. In that documentary.
D
Superman was nice. When Batman almost got into a fight with me.
B
Well. Sup. That's. Well, how did you almost fight Batman?
D
We were shooting something on the street for this talk show I was working on, and the guy. The Batman guy wouldn't get out of the way. And I was like, we can't.
B
He was aggressive.
D
We can't have you in the back because then it's Batman. So it's a thing.
B
Right, right.
D
And then he's like, well, give me $20. And I'm like that. I go, you shouldn't be an extortion Batman. Like, what are you doing? And then he wouldn't move. And I was just like, I don't.
B
I can't.
D
I can't give you $20.
B
I'm on Batman's side.
D
Are you?
B
Yeah, yeah.
C
Justin, I. I mean, I'm always on the justice superheroes of Hollywood Boulevard side.
B
Yeah, it's justice.
C
And I feel like they are now in that era of, like, social media where it's like, oh, all you gotta do is just like, be Hollywood Batman, Justin. Just have a following.
B
Listen to me very clearly. If one of those people gets more followers than me, I will jump through a jet engine. Do you understand?
C
Sure, sure, sure.
D
No, I'm gonna make this happen.
C
Same. Okay, what about jump through that?
B
I will. That is how you will know. You will know. Just go check. And if Hulk has like, a thousand more followers of me, you'll know where this came from.
D
They used to drink at a bar right around the corner.
B
I think they still do.
D
Do they really? It was really sad if you went in there.
C
Oh, for sure.
D
Yeah.
C
The Frolic Room. It's probably the Frolic Room.
B
I was gonna say the Powerhouse, but it might be the Frolic.
D
It didn't really have a name. It was just right next to this crappy Chinese restaurant, like, because across the
B
street from being sensational.
C
The one right there on Highland.
D
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
C
Exactly.
B
Which one think that was? Powerhouse.
D
Really?
B
Yeah. That's where the. Not even. Not even trying to be an. But that's where mini Mr. T's to hang out. And that guy was a party animal. That guy was a good hang. That guy had a good sense of humor.
D
All the Mr. T dude walking around.
B
I mean, the fact that I was like, in my life, I was like, yeah, like he would want to arm wrestle and he wasn't. He was just having a good time. Yeah. He had the attitude of the problem.

But is he just biting it or is he biting it and then pulling?
C
Did you say, like the coin?
B
Yeah. Either way, I'm in.
C
Yeah.
B
And by the way, that dime was worth a thousand dollars back then, so it's quite wasteful.

But I think also that's. That's a. That's a parlor trick. I think that was a thing.
B
You think it's fake?
D
Yeah.
B
You call them. Yeah.

You just go to the Hollywood Toy and Magic Company across the street and get a little fake dime.
D

That bends.

D

He has received recent correspondence from John Hopkins Medical School in Baltimore asking him to will his body to science about death.
B
Wow. You know what that is? A life. Well lid. When. When they're saying, can we have your body?
D
It's a weird letter.
B
I would love to receive that. If I received that, that would be Nothing but price.
D
So if I write you a letter.
B
No, not you. An actual. An accredited.
D
What if Justin writes you a letter and it's like, can I have your body when you're dead?

B
Honestly, a dm? I would be like, sure, it's fine. Take it. Yeah, have it. I don't care. Take it now. Quite frankly. Let's go, let's go. That's how I arrive. It was the easiest way to package him. We save money on the box by putting him like that, by the way. A lot of crap.
C
But also vacuum sealed.

Vacuum sealed. Sorry. We couldn't shut the eyes. So. Yeah. Yeah, that's his legs behind his head. Eyes wide open. Good luck. You're. You're from science. I am, yeah. I'm from science. Absolutely. Thank you very much.

B
I get that.
D
I get that.
C
Fair enough. Fair enough.
B
I've heard. I've heard that about that. We all heard that. That. That urban legend, potentially. Whereas if you were donating your organs on your license and the ambulance people saw that, EMTs, I believe they're called. They would not try to revive you as much because now they can sell you for parts. You ever hear that one?
D
And now it's just, if you. If you pick the wrong Tinder date, sure, you wind up in a hotel room and.
B
No, I. It made me. Made me think about it.
D
Did it?
B
No, it's just a podcast. Something to say.
C
Something to say. Something to get out in the air.
B
Might be a clip. Could be a clip.
D
Daddy return only gift. Girl of 13 desires, that is.
B
I don't want to know more. How about that?
C
Yeah, 13. She's. This girl's 13 and has many desires, potentially.
B
Or she has 13 desires.
D
Just one desire. Daddy return. It. It.
B
You. Weird angle to take.
D
Well, That's. I'm just gone with the thing.
B
This one's. Why is this one in your notes file?
D
She sounds like a real piece of though, doesn't she? Let's dive into this.
B
Enough.
D
Maybe it should have gone to Santa Claus, but Mary Ida Kennedy's letter came to the Daily News yesterday. Well, this is suspicious.
B
It's Thursday.
C
What?
B
What?
D
What 13 year old mails a letter to the Daily News when she wants it to go to school?
B
I agree. This is. This is Justin. Justin.
D
He's making a good point.
B
No, you got. Stop. Come on now.
C
These 1930.
B
I just want to be in movies, Mr. DeMille. Yeah,
C
this is how it all starts. How it all starts. Doing whatever it takes. Oh, it's so lonely on the farm.
B
Come on.
D
It's true. It's like half the girls in America at that time.
B
Stop it. This is like. No, no.
D
I feel like I was just transported to the 30s. That's what happened.
B
I'll do anything. Do anything.
C
Whatever you say.
B
Name a thing, I'll do it.
D
Dear Father Christmas, mary Ida, who's 13 and lives at 2119 Northwest Ave. In Chicago.
B
That's good. If we want to head around maybe.
D
Justin, we have to tell everybody this, but in old newspapers up until I want to say, the 70s, whoever you were, whether you're a victim or a criminal, they would put your address in
B
the paper, especially the woman.
C
Child.
D
And nothing ever happened because of that.
B
Nope. That was. It was a strange, strange thing they did.
C
And her parents were like, oh, thanks for putting our address in the paper, honey.
B
And she's like, well, thanks mom and dad. If a caller comes, let her all do anything.
C
God, what a weird time.
B
Yeah, not okay.
D
She is asking for one thing for Christmas. The return of her father, Earl Kennedy, a carpenter.
B
You two should feel pretty bad. All she wants from Santa is her daddy.
D
Yeah, but Justin was right. She has daddy issues.
B
No, come on, stop nodding. I just want my daddy to return from the war. Santa Claus.
C
Well, what are you going to do for me? Okay. See, it can go that way too. You know I don't you want to make it this town or not? Yeah.
B
This is stand up
C
world. Yeah, yeah, weird handwriting. But he wrote back. Maybe we should come peppermint cane in there.
B
Maybe you should come visit the poll sometime.
D
He left us nine years ago.
B
That is a sad. He transported me. That is a sad letter to write to the.
D
It is a sad. He left us nine years ago. Mary Ida wrote. And if I can only see my daddy once more. It Will make my Christmas happy. Please help me find him.
B
Jesus Christ.
D
He's in a ditch. Little girl, we found your daddy, but you ain't going to like it.
B
Yeah, so she's four years old. Look, the last time she saw her dad. And she writes the paper thinking it's Santa. That part's a little fudgy.
C
No, no, no, no, no.
B
What?
C
This is. This is the mom's doing. This is Gypsy Rose. This is the mom being like, yes, let's throw the address in there so that mommy gets new gentlemen callers that know where she lives.
B
You know what's crazy is how much theory.
C
Yeah. When you're four in Hollywood, do you actually remember? I don't know. Do you, like, know your dad at four?
B
Yes. No. Yes, you do. Now I'm. Now I'm back. No, but I do think potentially veiled suitor request is very possible. Very possible. Oh, my mother's just. My mother's so lonely in that bedroom every night, I hear.
C
I just want my daddy to come home. So mom is. Callers to play the new dad.
B
Yes, yes, yes, yes. All right, back in. Yeah, you know. Well, you know what?
A
I'm.
B
I'm a sucker for a Gypsy Rose pitch. I really am. I've been hurt by her too much that I'm just. I'm ready to go. I'll jump into action anytime.
C
I love just a good moon chows.
B
And by proxy, sweet little. Give me a munchause at any day of the week. That's my favorite proxy, by the way. I'm number one proxy. Without question.
D
Gypsy Rose is the one that's out of Missouri or whatever, Right? Is that probably.
B
Yeah, yeah.
D
So. So we had a listener. Yeah, we had a listener, a big Red Sox fan, very early on the dub, and he lived right near that. And before it broke Nationwide, he sent it to me and he was like, dude, this is crazy. And it was just like, look, we could have broken it. We totally. I totally up. I totally up. Huge regret, you idiot. Yeah.
B
Now look at us in the middle of nowhere, losing athletic greens as a sponsor.
C
Not athletic greens.
B
No, no athletic greens. Please take us back.
D
No, I like athletic greens.
B
Oh, I thought you were saying you didn't.
D
No, I don't like the liquid with the green stuff in it.
B
Oh, well, they do.
D
One that has.
B
Love to work with you again.
D
Keep them separate.
C
I love AG1.
B
Yeah. Justin, we're in the middle of our pitch, so we're not gonna allow you to. Sure, sure, sure.
C
You can go ahead, take your Time.
B
Thanks. Thank you.
D
So the Daily News is doing what it can for their one little girl's Christmas present. It's up to her daddy now.
B
Find a daddy. No, no, no.
D
They're literally just printing it so the dad will come forward. Forward.
B
Oh, that's what they think happened?
D
Yes, that's what they're extended. What they're doing.
B
I thought he was dead.
D
No. Oh, yes. Okay.
B
Oh, no. Justin. All right. This sometimes. Yes. So sometimes. Our editor and producer who helps us on the show, Preston, who I'm sure sent you a very annoying email, by the way. Side note, we got a little heat because Preston, the first time I met him, he, I. He was opening for me in Fort Collins at the Comedy Fort. And I just heard something about. And I go, what has that. And Preston had said that if the Denver Nuggets won the championship, he was going to post a picture of his asshole on Twitter, and he did anyway. That's just some context for who he is sometimes. What
C
is it? What's the handle?
B
I think it's Preston Tomkin. You can find it. I'll send it to you. I got a Of bunch of them. It's actually wall art I have at my place. But. But sometimes he will put. He will find the update on the article. And he's done a great job here because this is the followup to Christmas Daddy.
C
Yeah.
D
It says a few days later here, Christmas Daddy trail uncovered, which is also
B
what Preston said right before he posted the picture of his hole. I believe that was the caption. Christmas Daddy trail uncovered efforts.
C
Oh, I love That's. That's a great movie. I love that.
B
So good. So good.
D
Christmas hole.
B
Christmas hole. Christmas hole. Yeah, that was the fourth. Fourth. City slickers. Yeah, that was after Curly's gold.
C
It's a. Yeah, it's in the shape of a peppermint. Yeah, it's Christmas hole. Yeah, it's like red and white stripes.
B
You know what? Yeah, yeah, we're gonna get to it. But let's just all say the anus is very pepperminty looks. It has the illusion, the appearance.
C
Okay.
D
Efforts of the Daily News yesterday to locate the father of a little Chicago girl as a Christmas present. Received lots of cooperation, but proved only partially effective. The girl is Mary Ida Kennedy, 13. Kennedy was learned is somewhere in Southern California, probably in San Diego, while Mary is living at 2119.
B
Remember where the she lived? They're like, one more time. Go over there. Bang mom a little bit.
D
Second floor.
B
Yeah.
D
Window.
C
Open the door. Go check it out.
B
Go check it out. Just put it through the hole. Mom will do the rest.
D
So that's it. We learned he's in San Diego.
B
Oh, that's all we know.
D
That's all we know.
B
Oh. So nothing.
D
So it's kind of.
B
So, Mary. Mary Ida still has no dad, and.
D
Yeah, she's not gonna.
B
And she's a tough update.
C
Yeah.
D
Daddy issues.
C
That's Hollywood kids.
B
Well, sorry. Now you're in the big pictures. Yeah. Anyway, Mary, let's put you in a porno. Excuse me? I don't know. I've been listening a little bit.
C
Yeah, I don't know. She's talking a lot. Let's give her a lobotomy.
B
She's really yapping. Maybe we cut that frontal lobe and see what she can do. Here.
C
We're just going to put a little incision right in her cornea.
B
All right, cut the chatty part of this kid's head.
C
This is my favorite sound in the world.
B
Oh, my God. Listen for the snap. That means the thinking's about to slow down.
D
Is there. Is there a little pop or something?
C
You're not gonna think about your dad in a little while.
B
Your worries are all about to go away, Mary Ida. Got a better thing to think about? All I can think about now is Santa Claus.
C
That's right, Mary.
B
Yeah, we're getting warmer. Keep popping away. It did definitely make a sound. He definitely was like you. Listen for that click, that sweet click. There we are,
D
doctor. Whipped by beach matron.
B
Here we go. Yeah.
D
This is a Long beach story. Aroused over gossip.
C
Wow. Even before the 1930s, Long beach is like the same Long beach now.
D
Okay. Back then, it's covered in oil wells. So you're at the beach, but behind you are just rigs.
B
Yeah.
D
Aroused over gossip.
B
Which I've been aroused over gossip.
D
I know you have.
B
On your show.
D
Oh, that's your whole show. That should have been the name of your show.
B
Monday morning. Quarterbacks.
D
Aroused over gossip. Which she attributed to Dr. Bernard Nelson, 68. Ms. Ernest Donahue.
B
Where the did she live today?
D
Entered the office of the physician and beat him with a horsewhip.
B
Hell, yeah. Hell, yeah.
D
I'm into it.
B
Yes.
D
Yes.
B
Yes.
D
Good for her.
C
We need more women like this.
B
Yes. And. Yeah. And it's time. Enough with this doctor stuff. This is the rfk. This is the next progression.
D
That's right.
C
This is the actual time's up when you just walk into a guy's office with a horse whip and say, enough.
B
Yeah, yeah. Just eliminating the process in between. It's time to pay.
C
Seriously, just take it to the streets, ladies. Grab a horse.
B
I love a horse. If Indiana Jones can do it. But get out there.
C
Seriously.
B
You.
C
You think. You think any of these. These guys would be grabbing you when you got a horse whip, throwing at him, like, get it, go.
B
And on behalf of men, I'll answer, potentially, yes, there's potentially. Still there will be more attempts, but
D
I'm probably not going to stop grabbing until the skin is off my hand from the horse.
B
That's a weird thing to say. That's a weird mission.
D
Yeah, we'll edit that part out.
B
By the way, Justin, we're trying to get to Crystal. Leah, we want to have him on the show. Do have an email or anything, do you? We're really just. We've been trying. We always call him friend of show. We just, you know, popped into my head for a second. Friend of show. We love the guy. We love what he does. We love everything about him. Every aspect's very good.
D
He's really, you know, it's the only
B
time when I bring out the Charlie Sheen winning. When I'm talking about Delia, it just feels right. I do the winning, so, God, you can get eyes on him.
D
Ms. Donahue, employed by the doctor as a nurse before her marriage, was accompanied by her husband. Husband.
B
Okay, I like that, too.
D
Heating up.
B
I like that. Get her, honey. Get him, honey. I do like that.
D
Whip up.
B
I like that. That's supportive.
D
The Donahoos and Dr. Nelson appeared at police headquarters separately later in the day. But Dr. Nelson decided not to sign a complaint. Oh, yeah. Oh, you're guilty.
B
Yeah.
D
If you got horse whipped and you're like, it's fine. You did bad things.
B
Completely agree. If you're like, I don't want to press charges.
C
We don't know what he did, though, right?
B
Oh, we do.
D
It's. He had to have hit on her
B
or they did something.
D
Yeah. Grabbed her or whatever.
C
Well, I think this sounds like he either, like, yeah. Made a move.
D
Yeah.
C
And she went and, like, told somebody. And then the gossip of, like, oh, no, she did this and that. And then she's like, no, that's my character being attacked. Attacked. It's 1930. Like, it wasn't social media. It was all, like, hearsay. And they probably made her to be some sort of a loose woman.
B
Yep. And then the husband was like, I'm not going to be with a loose woman. We need to go horse whip the doctor. And they horse whipped him. But the doctor probably did something. If he's not Pressing targets. Something my guess is, you know, he was doing. He was. He was. You know, it's very gray area with doctors that. Back then.
D
Yeah. You're 100% pressing charges.
B
68. Yeah. It's not great.
D
It doesn't say how old she is.
B
Yeah, we don't ever address our age.
C
We're gonna say she's younger than 68.
B
I'm gonna say 28. Yeah, yeah, 28.
C
Something along those lines. Oh, this is a definite creeper.
B
I think so. Because they get older. The doctors get old enough. They start today. They. You know, they. Over time, they're starting to get. Get more and more stuff. And, you know, eventually you're, you know, putting your semen in a pill and saying that it's an antibiotic. You know what I mean? It's just. Well, I'm saying it's. I think we're all saying the same thing. I don't know. Slippery slope. But you're in power. You're in that position of power long enough, and then. Oh, no, hold on. You're in that position of power long enough, and the next. And then they invent the gel caps that you can fill, and you're going, oh, we actually opened a pharmacy.
D
Who invented.
B
Well, no, they were. They existed. But then. But you're getting the plain ones or you're emptying something out of it.
D
It.
B
And then the next thing you know, you've put some. Whatever. I'm not even saying seminal fluid, but fluid. You've. Some of your bodily fluid has gone into it.
C
Yeah.
B
And then you're putting that in a pill bottle, and you're saying, hey, take this. It's called amoxicillin, you know, and then the next thing you know, someone open. The husband opens it, and he goes, I know that smell. And then, bam. Then you're back there with a. Potentially. I don't want to fill in all the gaps, but I'm just saying it's possible.
C
Yeah.
B
You.
C
I mean, it sounds like you could be in Trump's cabinet.
B
That's. I would love.
C
Listen really good.
B
My knees will get sore, but I'd love to try to fitting it. I would love to give it a shot.
C
Many other fluids you could have mentioned before.
B
I know, right? I'm not living. I'm not limiting it.
D
The fluid's gonna be saliva.
B
It's not gonna be saliva. Well, if you're gonna go to that, like, it's not. It's not gonna be. Trust me, it's not gonna be saliva. If you're wasting Your gel caps on that and you're going in the back and you're saying that you now have an in house pharmacy. It's not gonna be saliva.
D
It's creepily.
B
It's not gonna be blood. I mean, you know, what was this? Angelina and Billy Bob Thornton VMAs, you know, 1997. No, thank you. It's gonna be seminal. It's gonna be the big one. It's gonna be the big one. You're gonna go with the big one. You're going with the hog sauce. And that's all there is to it. Sorry, I'm not. I don't do this. I'm just saying the POV here. I'm not. You know what? This is a fucking history show. Back in.
C
Sorry, you had me at hog sauce.
B

D
While the husband looked on, Ms. Donahue rushed at the surprise doctor in his office and lashed him about the face and body. She broke the wicked whip.
B
Broke the whip on it.
D
He was harmed a little.
B
A little.
D
Broke the whip. Doctor, nurse. Dr. Nelson was asserted to have reached for a gun, which Donahue took away from him.
B
That is some Indiana Jones. That really is.
D
Wow.
C
She's like Catwoman.
B
Yeah. That's awesome.
D
This story is so. Because if there's ever a story, we. We need to know the background. We need to know what was said.
B
I agree.
D
Just to give us an area.
B
I agree. Agree. I agree.
C
Yeah, but I mean, what, what is that the end of the story?
D
Yes, it's terrible. Terrible.
B
Now I'm mad at Preston for what he's done.
C
I think that's the end of the story. So we don't know.
B
No, no, no. We have a follow up. We have a follow up on this little girl whose dad remained missing and nothing changed. And then the. The guy who's putting his come in gel caps. We got nothing on.
D
See, that was actually the part you invented, which was shocking.
C
You made that up.
B
Very strong.
D
Shockingly specific.
B
Very strongly insinuated.
D
No.
B
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, anybody?
C
Yeah, it's very. It's really strongly inseminated.
B
Yeah, they insinuated it.

B
What a weird way of saying guy.
D
No husbands, huh?
B
So what, it's like bank robbing?
D
No, My guess is there's dudes at like a brothel and then there's a raid. And that's what I'm guessing.
B
Okay.
D
362 residents of Los Angeles satter, wiser and poorer. Some of them wearing black eyes, were walking the streets of the city yesterday or attempting to explain to wives or sweethearts exactly what they were doing at a men only show on the roof of the Hollywood storage building. Men Only show needs something very.
B
I do like the title.
D
I think that they're.
C
So that means this story now.
B
That means men are only permitted to go to the show yes. Okay. Right. Yes, I do like that. And it's on the top of where?
C
Roof.
B
Yeah. On the roof. Exactly. Yeah.
D
And then this is.
B
What a terrible decision. Raid wise.
D
This is one. This is like the. The precursor to. Because. So there was a period before everybody had porn everywhere where. Where some dudes would be like. Where some dudes would be like, hey, man, you want to come over and watch porn with me? And then. And it was. It was. It was definitely what it was. I. I would be like, not really.
B
Excuse me. Excuse me. I'm gonna say this. We had no other option. I know, but you didn't even.
D
But if you're sitting on a couch. Yeah. You're less interested in the porn. You're more interested in the other dude, I would assume.
B
No, you would sit. It was like a campfire watching porn.
C
There's no TVs. There was no TVs then.
B
No.
D
So this is their version of porn.
B
I would draw a picture and be like, how good would that be?
D
Guys used to draw pictures. And how good would that be? Check this out.
B
How good would that be? Would you.
C
It was also the silent era, but. But what? The rooftop part is interesting.
B
It's strange because it's seems primed for a raid.
D
Rooftop is also.
C
It's like, did. Do we have an address on this building?
B
I can tell you where a little girl lives.
C
Oh, good.
D
That's weird.
C
That's crazy. And I feel like it's on the rooftop because clearly this must have been, like, a tall building. At it. At it. At its time.
D
It's the Hollywood Storage Company. So how. Yeah, I mean, maybe.
B
I feel like it's prepped for a race raid. That's what I feel like.
D
Okay.
B
Like, they just invited a bunch of horny men to a roof and they were like, hell, yeah.
D
Four girls alleged to have danced before the assembled guests at Salome as Salome danced before Harad. Huh? Salam. Salam. People are going to be mad at me because I don't know what. They're one of their little religious things.
B
Shalom.
D
S A L O M E. I got nothing.
B
Salah. I would say salami.
D
Salami.
B
That's how I spell salami. Me. It's like baloney. It's strange. All meats are odd.
C
I know exactly where this building is.
B
You do?
C
This is. Yes. So this is on Hollywood and Highland. It's the Hollywood storage Company right here. So it's this gigantic.
D
Oh, I know that building. Oh, my God. That is a huge building.
C
Yeah. And it's 14 stories high.
B
Oh, me. These guys are dead. Yeah, yeah, that was over. It's easy.
C
Wow.
D
So they're having a.
C
On December. On December 7th, 150 police officers broke up a nearly 400 person stag party on the building's top floor. 366 individuals were arrested on morals charges, all but four of which were men.
B
Ah, that's. Well, the four were the dancers.
D
Yeah.
B
Wow. Oh, yeah.
C
Me.
B
A stag party. So, yeah, it's just. Yeah, guys are just on the highest rooftop possible.
D
It's a. It's a. It's.
B
And you had to pay.
C
You had to pay to get into this party?
B
Oh, yeah.
D
It's a pop up strip show.
B
I listen. I mean, yeah. Think of 1930.
D
Yeah.
B
I would have paid to go to this probably without question.
D
Yeah, I would have been.
B
I'd have been moshing.
C
$1.
B
Yeah.
C
$1 to get into this party, which was 19.27 in 20. 2025.
B
Well, the good news is with the Hormuz situation, we're getting closer back to it being an actual dollar. The exchange rate from time travel.
C
No kidding.
D
Meanwhile, the city treasure, the city treasury was exactly eighteen ten dollars richer by reason of 362 fines of $5 each on the guests.
B
Wow. Hope it was worth it, you little perverts.
C
That's a hundred bucks. 100 bucks they had each. So $5 was $100 dollars?
B
Yeah.
D
All of which resulted. That's wild. Oh, my God. All of which resulted from a police raid on a, quote, fraternity smoker Friday night.
B
Fraternity smoker.
D
That's what they called it. We should bring that back.
B
Wait, what is that? What? That. That's.
D
I think that's what. That's what they're calling the event.
B
Fraternity smoker. So just like a group of men
D
having a cigar smoking and watching the ladies dance.
B
Right. God damn.
C
Oh, they were just some.
D
Wait.
B
Yeah, they were watching.
C
Were they up there?
D
Yeah, everyone was on the roof.
B
Yeah. Four women. By the way, the four women thing is. That's got to be scary. That's like USO numbers.
C
Yeah.
D
Yeah, you better have guys.
C
That's what it was. It was a. A formal men only social gathering was called a smoker.
B
Yeah.
C
Wow.
D
Shouldn't that come back?
B
Yes.
D
Yeah.
B
Me and the boys are having a smoker.
D
It's a really great name.
C
Well, it was like a. It was like a. Yeah, a frat party. They called him a smoke smoker. I got a smoker coming up.
B
I got a smoker. We're going on the highest Roof
C
bottle recruitment.
D
Yeah, bottles, chairs and glasses were hurled. And which I don't probably.
B
I would do it at the cops.
D
And which jam City.
C
Morgan Wall in concert. My God, we're just throwing chairs off the balconies. Oh, that's what's happening.
B
Morgan Wallen. You'll see.
C
Yeah, you'll see. Just wait. Give it some time. I'm a time traveler.
B
It jumps off the roof, Barry.
D
Which jams the city jail to overflowing for 24 hours while.
B
Oh, that energy in a jail too. A bunch of boned up men.
D
While arrangements were made to have the men released. Girls deny guilt. The girls, all of whom pleaded not guilty, gave the names as Ruth Williams, 21 of 1347 North Serrano Street Street. You can't put their.
B
No, this is not.
D
I mean, now you're just like.
B
They're hot too.
D
Yeah, right. This is just like. Hey, there's easy ladies at these addresses. Like, this is crazy.
B
Yeah.
D
Isabel Clemens, 20 of 420 Federally Street. Dolores Moreno, 19 oh, transient. And Ruth Scott, 22 of 1215 West 10th Street. I always want my. One of my old addresses to pop up in here.
B
Well, that's.
C
That's crazy.
B
Yeah, that is weird. And no you don't.
D
I do.
B
That would be strange.
D
410 North Genesee.
B
It's like when you gotta like confirm the payment or something. And it's like, what address on this list of five seems familiar? You gotta answer like eight of those questions. Where's your dad right now? You're like, what? Which buffalo wild wings would you like the best.
D
Car taker? Hunted as boy kidnapper, rapper. What? Yeah, because he forgot to take a small boy out of it when he repossessed a car. CK McQuaw. That is the craziest name. That can't be his real name. Yeah, McWh.
B
Yeah, I think you're right.
D
That's not a name. That's no way that's a real name. They must. They must have left off part.
B
Yeah.
D
Employed by a used car dealer in Long beach yesterday was being sought on kidnapping charges, although the boy was safe and sounded home.
C
Home.
D
McQuaw was said to repossess a car purchased by Mrs. Andy Roseberger of BU Park. Ms. Roseberger had left the car containing her six year old Calvin at a curb Anaheim street while she went into a drugstore. That was super common back then.
B
Yeah, you're supposed to leave a kid in the car.
D
Yeah, you did that all the way up until the.
B
That was fine. Yeah, that was fine. Windows, car running yeah, yeah, that's good. It's like. It's like a infrared song sauna.
D
That's right.
C
Yeah. Yeah. It's red light therapy, but without the red light.
B
Yeah, yeah. No, kids like that. Just give them a little kerosene. Hydrate up.
C
Drink it up, kids.
B
Yeah.
D
McQuad took the car containing the boy and dropped him off at his home before taking the machine.
B
That's nice.
D
Into the used car lot. Ms. Rosenberg swore to kidnapping, complain against McGuire.
B
No. Yeah. He was just trying to justify the car.
D
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
B
I mean, you get mad at repo people. So you're like, you took my boy. Boy.
D
Yeah, no, he's fine. He's. Yeah. I mean, look, I don't like a car getting repoed, but.
B
No, you know, I don't either.
D
He didn't mean to take the kid.
B
No, I agree.
D
And you left your kid in the car. Like, what do we want? Yeah. If you leave your kid in the car, it's open game.
B
Yeah. No, that is a. That is anyone's child at that point. You're allowed to take whatever, by the way. Here we go. I'll. Anyone who's saying that's not true. I have taken a boy from a car before, and I raised him and I raised him, and he's a man now. Man. And now. And now he's a man and he's doing really good.
D
I have seven kids in my shed.
B
Yeah, that's different. No wonder your finger hurts.
D
Yeah.
B
All right, let's do one more. Okay, go ahead.
C
Nine years from now, nine years from now, that little kid you took is going to write a letter to Santa and be like, where's my real parents?
D
That's right.
B
That could be awesome.
D
And then you got to kill them.
B
Yeah. That's all. It's always how those stories end.
D
Yeah.
B
Every time I take a boy, I'm always like, I think the only option here is the ender. Yeah. Mean, I don't know, you just naturally. It just in the moment, you're like,
D
this is the moment.
B
It's teaching them archery and how to make a, you know, how to make a little, like, vase and things like that. Basket weaving. And then you go, I think this kid's gonna wrap me out.
D
Yeah.
B
Anyway, it doesn't matter. All right, let's do one more, Justin. And then. And then you may go.
D
Date spurned lady robs her Adonis.
B
Wow.
D
Tony Rapanich, San Pedro dock worker, decided yesterday that it doesn't pay to spurn the advances of a red haired woman.
B
Oh, and now it doesn't. Hey. Okay. You don't turn down.
D
Oh. If you turn down a redhead woman, you are cursed.
B
There we go. Hell yeah.
D
When approached by such a person in the harbor city and invited to make whoopee in the young lady's home, repanich declined her invitation.
B
What the. Come on.
D
Would you like to bang?
B
I mean, that. That. That approach is pretty effective.
D
Yeah, usually it works.
B
That's a pretty effective approach.
D
If a lady walks up to a guy and she's like, hey, do you want to. The guy. Guy's like, yeah, it would be.
B
I mean, yeah, if it's. If you're like, I live there. It's gonna be hard to be like, I don't think so.
D
Yeah.
B
The male mind is quite easy to hack.
D
Oh, my God.
B
Yeah, easy. Okay, let's go to a rooftop. No problem.
D
My manager got so mad at me.
C
Now we're talking. Yeah, now we're cooking with kerosene.
D
I was. I was at the Improv one time and a girl done. And she goes, hey, you want to take me home? And the manager's like, what are you doing? And I was like, yeah. And she goes, you don't even know her.
B
I go, that is a wild thing. Do you understand why I started doing stand up for moments like that?
D
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
B
This is it.
D
That's the whole. Yeah, that's the whole. It's gonna cost you money just the same. Repinich told police the woman said. Whereupon she pulled an automatic pistol from her purse.
B
I'm still in.
D
And took 18 from the hapless Adonis. She was going to rob him the whole time. And he figured it out. Out. And then she pulled a gun and robbed him anyway.
B
But I still want to go to her place.
D
She wasn't gonna him. She was gonna take him somewhere and rob him.
B
A little confused, but I'd still. I'm still in. I don't. I don't understand. I'd still like to see you again.
C
Well, that's good for her.
D
Yeah, good for her. Girl getting it done.
B
I don't agree. Justin, thank you for being here.

With Dave Anthony, Gareth Reynolds, and guest Justin Martindale
Original episode date: June 13, 2026
This episode of The Past Times features comedians Dave Anthony and Gareth Reynolds joined by comic Justin Martindale. As always, they select a random historical newspaper and riff through articles, blending irreverent modern commentary with observations on life—both then and now. This week’s paper: December 11, 1930, from Los Angeles, California. The conversation moves from wild Los Angeles history to reflections on current pop culture, all spiced up with tangents, bits, and plenty of comic asides.
As ever, the tone is loose, improv-driven, and unsparing in lampooning both the past and the present. Dave and Gareth’s style is playful and sometimes wickedly dark, especially with guest Justin’s quick comic timing. The riffing is sometimes historical, sometimes absurd, but always highlighting the ways in which weirdness—and injustice—echo across decades.
Listeners can expect great chemistry, running callbacks (e.g., mutant powers, DMing Britney Spears), pointed asides about gender dynamics, LA mythology, and modern pop culture. For fans of sarcastic, edgy history comedy, this is vintage Dollop/Past Times.
Justin Martindale:
For further laughs, listen to the full ep for skits, ad riffs, and even more unfiltered takes on history’s odder corners.
