Hope you're having a Nick's Thunder Pope Leo sort of day. By the way, Dan Beyer Was so right. That Pope Leo announcement today was so action packed. It was so great. It was like a major event. I. It had. I. I said the analogy, and I'm not. It had chops, man. It had like, I don't know. There was great entertainment value. Of course, we understand the. The real life importance and significance. Yeah. Of the Catholic Church and what it means to people. I get that. Right. But there was like, as far as entertainment value, it was really good. It had an NFL draft vibe because it was like. I was going to say red zone, dude. Four screens. Honest to God, Danny. And we respectfully joked about this on our Patreon earlier today, live. The only thing he was missing was like a ring entrance, like a song. We were saying James Lennon Jr. I am a real American or something like that. Could have been really cool. Well, I said imagine because everyone was waiting. I said, what if all sudden you heard like the stone cold Steve Austin glass break it just me. It missed a little bit of theatrics, but otherwise that was great. He's from Chicago. The Alan Parsons Bulls theme, like doom, doom, doom, doo, doo, doo. Yeah, I know. D. So that's the only. Maybe some cooler graphics packages, maybe to make it look cool. But imagine, Rich, just imagine, Just picture this. Vatican City this morning. And now it's time for your new pop, everybody. He's from Chicago, Pope Leo. See, saying, wait, where's his height and weight in school From Villanova. Thank you. He loves deep dish pizza. And probably we'll invite Michael Jordan to the Vatican. Yeah. He was wearing Air Jordans. A lot of people don't know that. He wasn't wearing your traditional slipper. He was wearing Air Popes. Air. He was wearing the Air Jordans 85s. But anyway, it was really awesome. And we say that respectfully. Dude, I was having a Pope Leo sort of day Catholic. Dude. I had my union confirmation. Even if you're not. How about have a little pride in America? We have an American pope. There's 1.4 billion Catholics out there. And for the record, Rich and I were all. We're all pretty much raised Catholics. You know, my. Do you know my confirmation name? You got to pick it. Where I grew up, like. And I chose. I chose Joseph because of Joe Montana. Oh. I thought because if you had an amazing Technicolor dreamcoat. I chose Thomas after my grandfather. Thomas. Thomas. Yeah. So I, I was supposed to be Javier, but the, The. Javier was my confirmation name. That explains his grito. What? That makes sense. But the, the, the clergyman. That was Doing this ceremony. He called me Xavier. And I'm like, no, it's Javier. He's from, like. I think he was from Argentina or something, so. Well, you. So you picked like a saint, right? Is that what you say? I just picked my grandfather's name. Javier. Bro, are you serious? I was Sam. I was Javier, but he is. It is spelled X, A, V, I, E, R. He was from. Oh, he's from Spain. Spain. Would it be okay if we called you that? Javier. It's his confirmation name. Spain. By the way, that might be the funniest thing ever. Xavier. Xavier. That was a long time ago. Now I'm gonna say Javier L. Johnson. What's up, Dan Meyer? You know, I'm more on the Pope talk. This is actual audio. This is not me building it up. And it's a joke, because I was amazed by this. WGN gets an interview with the Pope's brother. I think this is like a huge get. Very cool. It's a huge. You have about a thousand questions that you could ask. Maybe they don't have that much time. So you ask the important questions. Then, as you guys know, and Danny knows and s circling and trying to figure out what's the best of the one video clip that they put on WGN in talking to the Pope's brother. The guy's brother just became Pope. That's. Wow. Five hours ago. Here's the question. You ready for this? Cubs or White Sox fan? Yeah. He was never, ever a Cubs fan, so I don't know where that came from. He was always a Sox fan. Wow. Yes. Our mother was a Cubs fan. I don't know. Maybe that's clued in there. And our dad was a Cardinals fan, so I don't know where that all came from. But that's the video that they put up. Not like, what was it like growing up with the Pope or having him as your brother? Can you imagine Harold Baines and guys like Carlton Fisk going like, yeah, he was a fan of me, the Pope. Frank Thomas is like, and the Pope likes me, too. And the Pope loves me, too. That's crazy. A white suit. Is he Guillen jersey underneath all the robes, man. No joke's got that new city connect. Yo, that is cool, man. Sounds. That's what he should have came out with. Chicago Bulls inspired one. Sounds like the Sebastian Maniscalco controversy. He's like, you know, I'll do both. Why not? That's great. And honestly, guys, we say all this respectfully. That was so cool to see. Yeah. And the fact that he's American and from Chicago. That's a. That's a win for America today. That's awesome. I agree with them by 100%, WG. And that is a cool. Get the Pope's brother the day he's announced as the Pope. Very cool. And I'll give shout out to our buddy KFC from barstool. Did you see he broke down. What he thinks harder to become a cardinal in the Catholic church or a St. Louis cardinal. And when you look at the odds similar, it really is a cool little breakdown. So shout out to him. Well, congrats again. And it's been a crazy day. But back to our previous conversation, guys. Not only was the Pope announced, but today happens to be by the world a coke day. And I know that pales in comparison to the Pope, the Pope day. But coke is a major part of our lives and a major part of Americana 1886, a part of our history. And this is when it came out. It actually had cocaine in it when it first came out. And I'm a big fan. I don't drink coke as much anymore. Unless, of course, it's Mexican coke with the real sugar in them. Right. It comes in the old school bottle with the real sugar cane. I'm a fan of cherry Coke. Yeah. I mean, who isn't? Those remix machines are insane, right? We get to mix it up. But I do have a Coke Zero still once or twice a week right out of the machine right there. I'm a big F fan of that. But Rich already said it. Coke Zero was a thing. One misstep, and it was a misstep. New Coke. And you said Coke Zero. Coke Zero is delicious. I'm sorry. New Coke. New Coke. Coke Zero is great because it tastes a lot like coke. Yeah, yeah. New Coke is when they mess with the formula and people are like, why? They said it was too sweet. Yeah, we don't like this. Bring back the old Coke. So New Coke came out. Grand opening, grand closing. So based on that old school and 50 hits, throw it back on a Thursday. What were some other nostalgic things that came and went, discontinued items that come to mind for you? Now, there's a lot of beverages based on soft drinks. If you're gonna get mentioned and shout out Coke on Coke day. Do you guys remember how cool you thought for a minute crystal Pepsi was? I was just looking at it right now. Crystal Pepsi. Maybe they did crystal gravy on Saturday Night Live. Well, you know, that was the rage. We gotta. I mean, it's Coke day. But you gotta give props to Pepsi, because without that rivalry, like we say all the time, every Muhammad Ali needs their Joe Frazier. Right. Every Red Sox needs their Yankees. For real. They need that to get the best out of each other. That war, the cola war, is what made Coca Cola what it is today. It's a monster. And Pepsi's not too far behind. But I'm a Pepsi guy myself. You are a Pepsi guy? Yeah. You're the choice of the generation, Javier. I like the flavor. I like the sweets. The sweeter. It's a little sweeter than Coke. I just like Pepsi. I would lean that direction, too, because I like Diet Pepsi. I don't hate on Pepsi, but as far as branding, dude, look, I. If there's kitties watching, if there's kitties listening, I should say earmuffs. Kitties. I think we could talk around it. Yeah. Really? Yeah. I think that. Let's just say that Coca Cola also responsible for some of the greatest Christmas characters that we know. Yeah. Some of the. Some of the colors that represent Christmas. And so they sort of shake the world we live in in a lot of ways. Right. So. Yeah. On this day, discontinued items. Allah. New Coke. New Coke came out April 23, 1985. Wow. Coca Cola said that they hoped it would be talked about for generations to come. And this article says, well, they got their wish. We're talking about it today. So Crystal Pepsi, New Coke. I'll throw one out there and then we'll go. The phones for me. We somehow mentioned Fat Albert and Bill Cosby earlier in the show. My favorite ice cream treat when I was a kid. Frozen food section of the supermarket. I thought there was nothing better than a Jello pudding pop. They were so good, man. The vanilla one, they get a little icy, too. A little bit. You bite the sides of them. There was something about a pudding pop. So good. That was so good. They really were. Why did they get rid of them? Bill Cosby was the spokesman at the time. Jello Pudding Pops. But they were great. I never understood why they went away. I'm with you on that. Discontinued items. Let's go to the phones because there's so many. We could talk about this all day. I'm trying to think of one that really broke my heart the most. 877-99-NOO. Who do we got? What do you want to start? Let's say hi to Josh in Tennessee. Hey, Josh. Thanks for waiting, everybody. We appreciate it. What's up, buddy? Hey, what's going on, fellas? What comes to mind? For you. I'm kind of on the line with him on the ice cream. Mine is a taco taco. And whatever I can eat, find me or my wife can't find it whatsoever. And I was in love with it. That was in the past few years, in fact. But then it's only us to blame. And it's the Twinkie theory. Right. If you remember a few years ago, we've talked about this many times. They were gonna discontinue the Twinkie. And everyone's like, dude, are you kidding me? And Rich and I. Rich was like, when's the last time you bought a Twinkie? And you're like, well, in forever. Like, well, then it's your fault. Were you out there buying Choco tacos? Cuz I loved them too, but guess what? I hadn't bought any in a while. If you are not to blame. If you're not buying choco tacos on the regular, don't be mad if they get discontinued. I know sometimes things. I'm sorry, Sam. I was just gonna say sometimes things get discontinued when it seems like they're a fan favorite. Agreed. Like, you see fast food restaurants all the time. They'll bring something back for, you know, a limited time, and you're like, no, keep it on your menu forever. Like, we love that item. My wife is baffled how Taco Bell got rid of the steak Quesarito. She's like, oh, that was so good. She's like, they made you order it, like, on the app and they took it off the menu. Yeah. And I was like, what the heck? So you guys also like it? Yeah, my wife's like, it was steak cheese on a. In a burrito form. Like, you're telling quesadilla and a burrito combined. Yeah, I thought it was great. Yeah, I agree. See, I'll tell my wife you guys could order them together. Sam, on the app. Anything else come to mind for you, Dan Buyer? I'm having deja vu because I felt we've hit on a little of this because I remember talking about Outback steakhouses, Tassie Bites, because they were so delicious. And I remember you bringing them up. They were taking it off. But it leads me to the point of. My buddy told me that I think Olive Garden maybe had a spinach artichoke dip or something like that that they took off the menu because nobody else would order any other appetizer. So they were losing money on all of the other appetizers that were going to waste because everybody was ordering that other stuff that Was his. I don't know if that's real or not. I'm not in the restaurant business. I believe your friend. Yeah, I'm not Robert Irvine. I'm not sure if that. That works or not, but that's what I was told. Let's go to Wisconsin and talk to the Fats. The Fats? You're on with Kavino. Rich, what's up, buddy? Sounds like a perfect conversation for the Fats. Hey, what's going on, fellas? What's up, man? I'm a Catholic. I'm a Catholic who grew up on Pepsi. That's why they changed the formula, because they took the Pepsi Challenge. Remember that? Yeah, Pepsi Challenge. That's what it was all about, man. I'll tell you what, the thing that's discontinued, greatest breakfast cereal of all time, Apple Jacks. Wait a second, hold on. Don't they live in little variety packs at least anymore? Apple Jacks are gone. Apple Jacks are gone. Don't they come in those little packs with, like, Fruit Loops? Do they only come in the tiny box? Yeah, they're just. Tiny box. Oh, hold up. That's crazy. If that's discontinued. I know Dunkaroos were discontinued. I don't know if they brought them back or not. Let's say hi to Mark in New Mexico. What's up, Mark? Hey, what up, Mark? Yeah. How are you guys doing? Good, man. What's up? Hey. Something that broke my heart recently from my childhood is when they discontinued one of the Little Debbie Cakes. You see, we weren't rich enough to get the high end Hostess Twinkies and cupcakes and snowballs. We had to settle for the lower level Little Debbie Cakes. And they discontinued the Banana Twins. Yo, bro. As long as the Cosmic Brownie still out there, you're okay. Don't worry about it. Cosmic Brownie's still there. I see it at the supermarket. As long as that's alive, you're good. By the way, Internet's saying Apple Jack cereal still available. It's made by Kellogg's and it's still out there. Maybe this gentleman in his neck of the woods, they don't have it. I don't know. That's. Yeah, that's possible, but. Yeah, I'm pretty sure. But you only see it in those little variety packs. Apple Jacks, that's real old school, man. That is hard to find. And I only know because, oddly enough, my wife recently got them. And I questioned the move, like. But here's the thing. What? Applejack. A lot of these things Go away. But they do come back. Like, if you're a Count Jocula and Frankenberry fan, you know, Booberry went away for a long time, but then all of a sudden he comes back out of nowhere. You're like, oh, I guess for. Maybe for Halloween or something. But they did discontinue it at one point. Can I give you guys a dessert that I'm sure you're gonna go down memory lane with me on the OG apple pie from McDonald's. Like, extra bubbly, and it was so hot, it could burn a hole in your cheek. And first they changed it, which stunk, and then it's off. I think it's off the menu altogether now. If I'm not mistaken, they never brough OG one. That was so good. Speaking of McDonald's, who is synonymous with Coca Cola if you think it tastes different at McDonald's? It does. You know, McDonald's and Coca Cola have an agreement where the. The syrup carbonation ratio is different at McDonald's than anywhere else. So there's people that are like, I think they store it differently, if I'm not mistaken. The pressure. Yeah, the pressure and the syrup ratio. So when people say, man, nothing better than like a fountain Coke from McDonald's, it is different. That is a fact. And speaking of McDonald's and the apple piece, on every list, you look up, like, favorite discontinued foods from McDonald's. One that comes up on every list is coming back this summer, and that's a McDonald's snack wrap. Those snack wraps were good. Yeah, they're coming back this summer. You know what McDonald's they did briefly, I think in the 80s was they made pizza. McDonald's made pizza. You know what our video guy spot always brings up? He goes, you know what I loved the Arch Deluxe. Does anyone remember the Arch deluxe vaguely at McDonald's? No. I do. Yeah, that was a big one. Hey, speaking of Coca Cola and again, new Coke, do you guys remember your parents when they were trying to stay healthy, they would drink Tab? Yes. Yeah, because I'm pretty certain as discontinued you're pay for it. No. Yeah. Can I have to order something? If you want to, Tab. Exactly. It only lives in back to the future reference. And the jerk. Yep, that's it. That's so funny. Tab. Let's say hi. We'll take one more and then we'll move on. Say hi to Trip, our good pal in Vegas. What's up, Trip? Trip like I do. What's up, gentlemen? Great talk to you as always. Got to Trip like I Do. What's up, man? Hey. So you took the first two. I was gonna say pudding jello, Pudding pops. Now I was gonna say Hostess products. But then the third one. How about Kudos? Yeah, that was a big deal in the 80s and 90s. I feel like kids would always put those in their lunchbox. Kudos are a big deal. No doubt. And, you know, since we're talking Coke and Thank you, Tripp. You're the man, dude. Have a great, great, well, Mother's Day weekend. If I don't talk to you, but hopefully you're listening tomorrow. You're making me think of other. Like Surge. Remember that green drink, Surge? I think it had extra caffeine. Yeah, that soda was like a weird soda. And then, of course, the Sobey rage. And does Nantucket nectars even exist? Yeah, I think Nantucket does. By the way, Sobey does not exist. Does I have two in my mind? Does Jolt Cola still exist? I haven't seen it. Remember Jolt? Yeah, it's a novelty item. Now. I. They might have in those days. You know those boxes where you could buy old speed? Jolt Cola is being relaunched in 2025. This is what the Interwebs. That's what the kids need. Yeah. Remember Code Red? Yes. Oh, yeah, they're calling it Redcon1. Is jolt cola okay? Redcon1. Okay. Sorry. Redcon1. I'm trying to think of any other. Any other treats. Yeah, I'll give you one. I don't even know. I don't know if I even know. The name of a lot of the good humor stuff we grew up with is gone. Like Bubble O Bill and Fat Frog and things like that. Let's see. Let's go to Alaska real quick. Steve, you're on. What's up, buddy? Hey, guys. How you doing? We're good, man. Yeah, you guys just took the words right out of mouth. I was about ready to say the joke cola. We used to drink that back in the 80s when I worked the graveyard shift at the post office. Yeah, that was the extra sugary caffeinated with a lightning bolt on it. Let me. Let me kick one more at you. And Danny, I'm gonna give you Sam, you might be a little young, you're a couple years younger than us, but if you were a kid of the 80s and 90s, I'm gonna give you a cookie that I feel like was in your. Your parents cabinets. Look up giggles. Oh, yeah. They were like bootleg Oreos, but they had smiley faces. They don't exist anymore. These do not exist. Oh, Yeah, I totally remember those. Oh, yeah. Do you remember Giggles? Especially the ones with the chocolate covering on the outside? Yeah. So think about it if you want to talk about it. Hey, 87799 on Fox again, it's. What's the actual title of the Coke they share? What is it? It's have a Coke. Have a Coke Day. National have a Coke Day, 1886. And they're only missed. I'm sure there's more. But their biggest misstep is New Coke, which was discontinued. Covino over here, we know he's Mr. History Channel Boy. You always see Covino's face on all those whatever that built America. Not enough, But a few more coming out soon. But there's one. It's part of the food that built America. There's a Cola wars episode where you actually see the whole progression of Coke versus Pepsi and the. And the battle. And like you said, the food industry, much like sports, thrives on competition. Yep. When you get a McDonald's trying to outdo each other. When you get a McDonald's and a burger King or, you know, a Pepsi and a Coke. Every industry needs an opponent. Toys. Same thing. Like you need an opponent. GoBots needed transformers. Like, you need someone to motivate you. And you see that in sports and you see it in life. Yeah. We wouldn't be celebrating National Coke Day if it wasn't for Pepsi. Trying to be the choice of a generation, bringing all the pop stars involved in their campaign. I promise you, every day. ESPN Radio hates the fact that we're better. Yeah, definitely. ESPN Radio looks at their lineup and they go, oh, I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. Oh, they look at it and it's like, man, so. But. But you know what? It keeps both companies hungry. And that's a good thing. Exactly. Now I'm hungry for some Giggles cookies. Thanks, Rich. You know, they look fantastic, to be honest. All right, we got more Covino and Rich. Remember Tato Skins from Keebler? You're just gonna. I'm trying to lose a little. Yeah, I'm hungry. Trying to slim up for the summer, bro. Stop it.

Yeah, discontinued items that the national have a Coke day got us thinking that their only missed up that you could maybe say is when they decided to go with new Coke when we were kids in the 80s just a bad idea backfired. They then said oh classic Coca Cola and then they were back to normal. But everyone has a misstep. You know what you always we've talked about this in the past. I've been hanging with Rich forever. I know the things you always bring up those pudding. Pudding pies. Yeah, yeah, they always they still have like the cherry and apple one but I used to love the vanilla pudding pie. The chocolate pudding pie. 850 calories in one of those bad boys. You were a kid, you didn't care. Dude, you were sitting here like the sugary glazed hard shell. Remember they made a ninja Turtle one and had it was vanilla pudding but they dyed it green. I'm sure that was healthy when we were kids. Remember Teddy Graham's I remember the song just want to have those titties big back then. Dude, they're gone. Let's go. Rapid fire. What discontinued item reminds you of your childhood that you loved Again, the league leader by far the number one answer any List. You look up on social media, Reddit, anywhere online, buzzfeed the pudding pop. And it makes you wonder why no ice cream company has said, hey, jello, let's partner up. Clearly, I could still taste the piece of wood at the end. There's gotta be a reason. Can I actually ask you guys a kind of an offshoot question? Yeah. Did you grow up with the very. You okay. I'm all right now. Are you getting emotional or joking? Yes. Both, actually. Did you grow up with a very cheap but very good dessert when you were a kid of the jello? Chocolate pudding in a pie crust. Like in a graham cracker crust? Of course, for every holiday, we still make a pudding pie. Oh, it's so good. You put them in the fridge and it would kind of solidify, of course. And then you put. So affordable. Ready, Whip on top. Oh, man, what a. I haven't had that in years. Come over my house. Yes, please. And we'll have. Are you sure you're going to invite him? I was saying pudding pie. I was saying anything for Javier. Javier wants some chocolate pudding pie. You got it, Javier. We learned today that I was Sam's invite. I was Sam's confirmation name, Javier. But hey, Javier, Iowa. Iowa. I was trying to combine them, but, you know, you look like such a Javier dude. You really do, you know, I'm Sam. I'm one of those blonde Spaniards. I'm serious when I say this. He wears Javier Jordan Gardens. If you go to someone's house on Easter, Christmas, Thanksgiving, someone makes a pudding pie, it's gonna go before someone's homemade apple pie. Without a doubt, it's a no fail. It's great. So good. All right. Rapid fire David in Reno. What's up, man? Hey, Dave. Hey. How's it going? What's up? I got two things. Zima, beer and Lo and brown. Can't find either one of them anymore. Zima was such a big thing for all. They made a little comeback years ago, but it never caught on. But they did try to like. Like, relaunch Zima. That was your. It was something different. Well, yeah. Zima, basically, today is the White Claw. You know, it's just. It's just a seltzer with alcohol, you know, and flavor. I think Zema is like a malt liquor. Malty. More. Yeah. Yeah, I guess. But, yeah, an offshoot. Shane in Montana, what's up? Hey, fellas, I got a couple top tiers here. Crystal clear. Pepsi. I don't think I heard that one yet. Yeah, that's a classic. What about the Zebra Stripe gum? You can eat the wrapper Fruit Stripe, man. That's so sad that they discontinued just when actually discontinued. This I read. Yeah, Fruit Stripe. That was like 15 seconds of greatness. Fruit Stripe was the gum your grandmother had. If I would go to my grandma's house, she would have Fruit Stripe gum. And you remember Blackjack gum? It was licorice flavored, like, that's like old people gum. What did you do with the wrappers of Fruit Stripe? They were tattoos, remember? Oh, yeah, sometimes. And they would wash away with, like a. In Within a day. Yeah, I. Dude, 15 seconds of intensity, of awesomeness. But after that, you were. Are you talking about your night last night with your girlfriend or. Yeah. Wow. What do you think? I was talking about 15 seconds. Yeah. While chewing Fruit Strike. Isn't that your slogan? Thank you, Shane. Let's go to Cliff in Kentucky. Hey, Cliff. Hey, guys. I got two things. One still, it's not discontinued, but they should is the Ding Dong, because it's not wrapped in the metal foil anymore. And the Jif Peanut butter cookie. Jeff, Peanut butter cookie. What I think of. Remember the Weird Al Yankovic video for I'm Fat? And they're like, ding dong, man. Ding dong. And you ain't fat. You ain't nothing. Because he didn't want to eat the Ding Dongs anyway. Good. Let's go to Justin. Northern Cali. What's up, Justin? Hey, how you doing? What's up? First off, I want to say they definitely still have Apple Jacks. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. Corrected that. Okay. The one drink that I wish they would bring back, granted, I was 13 or 14 when I loved it, was Pepsi Blue. Yeah, that's been on a couple of lists I've been looking at. Pepsi Blue was a thing for a second. Don't know that one. Yeah. You know what? I needed the money. You know, I haven't. I haven't really effed with those machines much, but some of those you go to, like, a good burger place or the movie theater they have, your kids could grab a cup and make every flavor Coca Cola remix. You don't mess with that drink, dude. You're not like Mixmaster Mike. I don't know. We're just scared to step up to the remix. Susan, it's fantastic. Don't be scared. I don't know, bro. What's up, Susan? Sarah Lee Banana cake, huh? I'll have to take your word for it. Sounds great. I wish it was still around. Chad, in Vegas, you're the last. You're the last word. What's up, bud? Hey, big fan, guys. Can't wait to meet you in June. I know you guys mentioned the fried apple pies at McDonald's, and they still have them in Australia. It's amazing. Oh, I mean, now I got even more reason to go. Yeah, yeah, you gotta go. Gotta go down under to get some fried apple pie. Damn, that's crazy. Hey, thanks for sharing. I appreciate it.

But it is happening. So book your flight, get there. We'll. We'll give you a hotel and all that details where we have some deals coming up soon, but June 20th to the 22nd, Big Covino and Rich party. Like he said, going to be more affordable than going to a Knicks playoff game. No. And we're going to get to that in a second. I have one last thought, though. If we could go around the room and then go to Dan Byers. Update. Is there an old school treat that if you just say it, you could almost visually, like, taste it or just even the texture? I saw some kid on social media, and he was talking about how his dad's still obsessed with eating devil dogs. Oh, chokers. And if you say a devil dog, can't you just in your mind picture that? It was so good, but you'd be like. Because they had relative dryness. Yeah. Devil dog. Did your family house devil dogs? Hell, yeah. Drake's cakes, dude, all day, my dad sold them in his vending machines. I lived off of Yankee Doodles and devil Dogs. I didn't realize he was in the pastry game before rapping. Drake. Yeah. Drake. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Drake's Cakes. People didn't know that? No, but I'm not even kidding. My dad, for. I mean, for anyone that cares, was a vendor. That was what he did. That was the family income, his own business. And Drake's cakes were all over my house my whole life. So, yeah, we lived on devil dogs and all that stuff. All right, well, hey, hopefully you enjoyed reminiscing with us. Let's go to Dan Buyer for an update. DB what's up? I still reminisce about the taste because it's different now. Of The Domino's Pizza. When it opened up in our hometown. We talk a lot about Pizza Hut and memories. I remember when we. 30 minutes or less back then. Yes. And you had time them small town. We didn't have a. We had. We had a kfc. We had a Pizza Hut and a Dairy Queen that was open from April to October. But other than that. Then when Hardee's came into town, it was a big deal. But Domino's, they brought it to your door. Are you kidding me? Avoid. There was. There was a different taste to it that I can still taste to this day. Wish we could have that back.

That's sad to hear about Chet Lemon because it's just one of those names you knew synonymous with Detroit growing up. Whitakers and Alan Trammells and all those dudes, for sure. 16 years in the bigs. Let's see. Career average, 2:73. Sounds about right. 273 nowadays is like 302. 15 career home runs, but definitely one of those names. He also played seven years with the White Sox, but I think of him as a Tiger. Me too. Chet Lemon on the road again. Was it? White Sox and Tigers. Anyone else? Yep. No, that's it. I think he played for two teams. Yeah. Team guy. That's it. Nine years. Yeah, he ended with Detroit in 1990. But definitely one of those dudes you remember from like RBI baseball and you know, collecting baseball cards and, and watching them play. No doubt. Hey, rest in peace. I listen NBA playoffs there.

Nirvana changed the game, right? We know that. I love Nirvana, but when it goes song for song, I think STP has more songs than any of those bands of the 90s. Song for song, like, yeah, I love that song. Love this song. Love that song. I'm telling you, he's playing Wicked Garden if you're listening to the podcast and you'll hear it, but good choice, Iowa.

We got lots to talk about on over promised, our bonus podcast because we ran out of time today. Having fun. You know when you talk about music and you said, oh, Kavino, Rich, you know the Fox Sports Radio radio musical? Well, you and I always thought they went hand in hand. I never understood people that didn't think they went hand in hand. And when we linked up with Danny G as our producer, one of the commonalities we had was Danny G was a sports fanatic. But Danny G knew as much about music as anyone. Loved his hip hop and everything else. Danny, doesn't it boggle your mind when you meet someone that doesn't know the other? Yeah, they're like an alien. Like, wait, so you know music, dude, you play, you play guitar and love music, but you know nothing about sports. And then on the flip side side, you love sports, but you can't name who sings that song. Like, I never got that. Like, to me, music and sports, so many of us growing up, yeah, the two things crossed each other. What do guys play in the locker room in the clubhouse? What do you hear at a stadium? Guys worry about what their walk up music is. What's their hype up music? An athlete, a star athlete. What did he secretly always want to be? A star rapper. Well, the star rapper secret. Secretly want to be athletes star wide receiver, of course. Quarterback. So to me it's a weird thing. Yeah. We're here to say that they go hand in hand. I never understood it. I never. Well, the same way I never understand. Understood how? Back in the day, if you were in like the drama club in school, that was like nerdy, yet we glamorized and loved actors and actresses. It's like, well, where do you think they start? It's hard. It's hard to even like for me to pick what I like more. Like, I don't know, I don't know. I like sports and music. What do I like better? That's a tie. It's a tie. I'm a bigger sports fan. The music. But then again you are way more passionate about music. Maybe, but it's. It's the same. It's close, dude. I don't know. So thank you guys for hanging out with us before we go. We promised us, and we got to mention it, the Knicks play on Saturday afternoon. Yeah. I mean, what a series. Celtics bringing it back to the Garden. What? You know how pumped I think they lost just already. I know they're, they're favorite to win and favor to win, but they're going into the most rowdy environment. They got a bunch of the Knicks, baby. Yeah, they're gonna be. You think we're gonna go down there and lose? Yeah, we're walking to the Garden. Yeah. The New York Knicks. Get your khakis. We're driving down. You know how pumped the Knicks fans are gonna be? I just think they're walking into an electric environment. The Garden's gonna be ready. But here's the thing. Everybody's trying to get there. And the tickets right now as low as $634. That's your, your cheapest nosebleed is six to seven, Hondo. So I wanted to pose this question to you guys. The Knicks haven't been in it at this level in a minute. So I could see where if you got kids or if you want to go with a date and. Yeah, let's, let's do it up. Going to get some coffee and some Knicks tickets. A less about the Knicks in New York, less about this game in particular. But have you ever tried this Little deal. Because someone, someone mentioned this. Have you ever gone to a stadium or an arena, waited 15 minutes after the game started and then go on like secondary ticket apps and go into the game late? Or do you have no interest in doing that? Like, what if I told you, yeah, go to a Mets play, go to a Dodgers playoff game, but in the third inning, like tickets on 50 bucks. When you say that, I'm not judging. Right. But I think that's, that's a young man's game. Like if I would have done that my 20s. Oh, but that's what I'm saying. Yeah, maybe for a young man. I'm without a doubt younger dude. And honestly, you have no responsibilities. You're trying to get in there. Yeah. You can wait around all day and just get in to say you were there for sure. As an adult, you don't want to leave things a chance. No, no, that's what I'm saying. Like there are some times I used to do that at Yankee Stadium when I was, when I was in my 20s. But I'm saying if you're a young dude in New York, this example, or hey, you want, you want to see a game in the Bay Area, Golden State, and you're saying to yourself, I can't really afford what these ticket prices are. Is there any shame in the game of like, I'm going to hang around the stadium until things start and then. Yeah, because you see that happen. Like, let me ask you guys, you're both from the East Coast. If the Knicks advance, what's it going to start looking like? Because we're at God cheapest right now is 600. We're not to the conference finals. Double that. At least. Least. At least for now. Knicks haven't made it to the NBA finals in the 21st century. Right. They lost to the spurs and then before that OJ was in a car chase. I mean, it's been a minute. And you earlier on the show, you guys called the Garden electric. What comes to mind and YouTube this. If you didn't see it or you have never seen this. Larry Johnson's famous four point play to come back and beat the Pacers in the 99 Eastern Conference Finals. It was like an earthquake happened in New York. You see the cameras can't stay still. Really? Yeah, the crowd all erupts and stands up at the same time and lose their. You know what? Minds. It's crazy. That's what they've been waiting. I'm not counting out the cat, the Cavs, but I think it would be such a throwback to our old school NBA days if the Eastern Conference finals were the Pacers and Knicks. Oh, man, that's. That's so good. Imagine that. Imagine they somehow get by the Celtics, Pacers, Knicks. Come on, Miller, Ewing, they show up, right? Just for old school sake. And by the way, I posed this question. We have a theory. Anything over $500, you have to run. By your way, wifey. Do you just buy those? We'll talk about that tomorrow. All right, let's do it. We'll see you on over promised Arriva. Dci, baby. See you in the over promised land. Goodbye. Let's go. Your gut microbiome and those healthy bacteria can actually have positive effects. Your mental health, your immunity, your risk of cancer, almost any disease under the sun. This week on Dope Labs, TT and I dive into the world of probiotics.
