[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, did.
[SPEAKER_12]: The Mayor of New York?
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_12]: He was a current Mayor Ed, uh, the plot of the video.
[SPEAKER_12]: I don't know why I remembered so well.
[SPEAKER_12]: He was hanging with Bluegrass legend, Bill Monroe, in New York City.
[SPEAKER_12]: And Ricky Skagg's took, took, uh, Bill Monroe through New York.
[SPEAKER_12]: And at one point, Mayor Ed Koch lip sync to this.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's Bluegrass in the big city.

[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, am I right ladies?
[SPEAKER_12]: There's a slight pause.
[SPEAKER_12]: Wait, I was supposed to say that And Oscars here too
[SPEAKER_12]: You have any appreciation of bluegrass music.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, of course.
[SPEAKER_12]: One of the things that's great about it is that they have never used any sort of distortion It's always been about a clean capture So some of the greatest recordings of all time Feature those instruments like a banjo even though a string instrument almost
[SPEAKER_10]: That's all that.
[SPEAKER_10]: No, it's great.
[SPEAKER_10]: Alright, this is a guy playing a mandolin.
[SPEAKER_10]: It was not fast.
[SPEAKER_10]: I mean, they're all playing at this speed, and that's why I want to see him again.
[SPEAKER_10]: Listen.
[SPEAKER_10]: These guys are the best at what they do in the United States.

[SPEAKER_12]: My first favorite album was a bluegrass album when I was we in small, little kid, really.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, the Dillards who played the Darlins on the Andy Griffin show.
[SPEAKER_12]: But I mean, that's how you become.
[SPEAKER_12]: You get exposed to music through different ways.
[SPEAKER_12]: And the Dillards actually had a sort of a decent run.
[SPEAKER_12]: They opened for Elton John on tour, which is a weird combo, isn't it?
[SPEAKER_12]: That's weird, isn't it?
[SPEAKER_03]: What?
[SPEAKER_03]: Whoa.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like every that time where Rob put a speed bump on the show with the Dillards.
[SPEAKER_12]: Remember the time that Oscar kept trying to include himself in our blue Grestalk?
[SPEAKER_12]: Oscar, are you wearing some sort of workout, a coup de Montenegro?
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm glad you noticed Mike.
[SPEAKER_03]: I have a workout.

[SPEAKER_10]: I'm more excited about the crock pot to be honest.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, crock pot's a great item, mate.
[SPEAKER_10]: You can set it, you know what you can do.
[SPEAKER_10]: You can actually put meat in that, we'll leave for the day.
[SPEAKER_10]: And then when you return in the evening, you'll have a nice soft cooked meal.
[SPEAKER_10]: But you can eat, you can eat.
[SPEAKER_10]: That's what I've been hearing in the comments.
[SPEAKER_12]: But what Adrian brought because Oscars never tried it before.
[SPEAKER_12]: A gift from the service show.
[SPEAKER_14]: This is the debit.
[SPEAKER_10]: How many directions are we going to go in the opening?
[SPEAKER_10]: It's a taste to bring in his effing food.
[SPEAKER_12]: It's a taste.
[SPEAKER_12]: So Adrian brought Nutella and Pony brought some sort of weird gooey biscuit.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, man.
[SPEAKER_05]: All right.
[SPEAKER_10]: So that's back on track.
[SPEAKER_10]: We're back on track now.
[SPEAKER_10]: The Nutella that I discussed as one of my cheats of the week.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oscar, you have you have never experienced the
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't want to tell him.
[SPEAKER_03]: My parents, some of her bought Nutella.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think Nutella was a fake peanut butter, as a kid.
[SPEAKER_10]: All right, it's not.
[SPEAKER_10]: I'll be honest, even Oscar Santana, I'll be very surprised if he doesn't like it.
[SPEAKER_12]: I would be willing to guarantee he is all in.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is the year of the rooster, or as we say here in America, the year of the cock.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_11]: Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo.
[SPEAKER_03]: As far as flavor profiles, you guys may know better or best or as good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Do I eat the dumpling that's supposed to give me good luck in the new year that's from far of the first Newtella first?
[SPEAKER_12]: Okay, because this is my you pronounce it Nutella or Nutella Nutella Nutella Nutella Nutella Nutella We are the nights
[SPEAKER_12]: Um, it is that this is actually Mike A for your convenience Nutella and go.

[SPEAKER_12]: Nutella, Nutagan, tell him.
[SPEAKER_12]: Nice, Thalonstin.
[SPEAKER_12]: Nellin florals.
[SPEAKER_12]: If you like the taste of hazelnuts and chocolate, you're going to love.
[SPEAKER_10]: Needs, yeah, all in, let me just say that don't start yet.
[SPEAKER_10]: Don't start.
[SPEAKER_10]: I want to real not ruin anything.
[SPEAKER_10]: It's served with breadsticks.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, that's the new thing.
[SPEAKER_10]: They put it in and I will say this that I don't think the hazelnut is even a factor I think it's just the chocolatey good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I agree.
[SPEAKER_10]: Would you just eat it chocolate without any Dippins you could put your finger in there and eat just the chocolate But I think if you really want to get it I would take a healthy and I mean healthy gob of the Nutella On the stick and let's get your area and Rob Rob I'm asking Oscar.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, I'm watching
[SPEAKER_03]: A more more.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, I can't get more of your mess.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, you can.
[SPEAKER_03]: What tastes like what melted down cocoa buffs?
[SPEAKER_03]: It smells like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'll accept that.
[SPEAKER_10]: What do you think what I say?
[SPEAKER_12]: He successfully dumped it down to his tasting level.
[SPEAKER_03]: With a powder at the bottom of a cereal box of cocoa buffs.
[SPEAKER_10]: And but a smooth creamy texture.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_10]: What do you think of the flavor?
[SPEAKER_10]: How do you like it?
[SPEAKER_10]: Mike?
[SPEAKER_10]: I'm not a little kid.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, it's a trash in the garbage, you know what, he was the calories.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, my calories.
[SPEAKER_10]: Let me tell you what I think about Oscar Santana.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yes, we can agree that he is a contrarian.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yes, he loves to go the opposite.
[SPEAKER_10]: That's what he digs doing.
[SPEAKER_10]: But I will tell you that if you really loved it, he would still have it out there because it's that time of the morning where he would want to know.
[SPEAKER_12]: I usually binge.
[SPEAKER_12]: There might be a, there might be a gemeliot move about 79 minutes.
[SPEAKER_10]: moderating him for that.
[SPEAKER_10]: If he goes into that trash can to retrieve that Nutella, he's really off the air yet.
[SPEAKER_10]: He's pouring his tea over his coffee.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's ruined.
[SPEAKER_03]: I stole it from the hostels.
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_10]: Can't wait to go and play of the air.
[SPEAKER_10]: Play of the air.
[SPEAKER_10]: All right.
[SPEAKER_10]: Now, Pony has also brought in a taste tree for show the package.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's really great.
[SPEAKER_10]: It's not show until it's show and share.
[SPEAKER_09]: It's show and eat.
[SPEAKER_10]: Look how far in this packaging is rice cake, azuki, difuku mochi with red bean paste filling.
[SPEAKER_03]: Mmm.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh my god.
[SPEAKER_10]: So this is my grandma used to make.
[SPEAKER_03]: Honies got the obsession with the Far East.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: And because he thinks he's Asian, he bought these Chinese New Year dumplings because the New Year has to start off right.
[SPEAKER_04]: These are good luck gooey biscuits, right?
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, these are Japanese treat that is traditionally in oil.
[SPEAKER_12]: Just because you're talking about Asian food doesn't mean you can't use articles.
[SPEAKER_12]: These are age Japanese treat.
[SPEAKER_10]: That's all right.
[SPEAKER_10]: All right.
[SPEAKER_10]: Let me just ask him a question.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yes, so we all know you like anime you like the cartoons that and you're kind of I'm saying are you does this like dovetail off into other areas of enthusiasm in the Asian culture?
[SPEAKER_10]: I mean, are you really into?
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, okay.
[SPEAKER_10]: So will you be celebrating the year of the cock?

[SPEAKER_04]: So this is Mochi, which is a rice cake.
[SPEAKER_04]: Mochi.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's almost like a gummy bear, but made out of rice and a little bit stickier than a gummy bear consistency.
[SPEAKER_04]: And bigger, bigger, bigger.
[SPEAKER_04]: Much of size of a biscuit.
[SPEAKER_10]: That way, when you say gummy bear, so what you showed me, it looked like the packaging for something we used to call a honey bun.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah show him one you're a little something.
[SPEAKER_12]: I used to call on you, but thank you Like ways Nice to love on you ones.
[SPEAKER_14]: All right.
[SPEAKER_14]: Let me take a peek.
[SPEAKER_14]: Let's see what we have here.
[SPEAKER_10]: Probably still do so it looks like a little round donut That hasn't been baked yet hasn't been baked yet.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, it has to be baked.
[SPEAKER_03]: It doesn't it look like it hasn't been though
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, it looks like it has been.
[SPEAKER_10]: Is that to be, is that edible right now?
[SPEAKER_10]: Is that to ready to eat?
[SPEAKER_10]: Absolutely.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, but he gave me one before the show in my initial, my comment was Pony, this tastes like it hasn't been cooked yet.
[SPEAKER_10]: You ate it before the show.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, you can't stop himself.
[SPEAKER_12]: Well, no, you don't need my reaction.
[SPEAKER_12]: This guy's reaction.
[SPEAKER_12]: I would love to.
[SPEAKER_12]: He'll do anything for food.
[SPEAKER_10]: I love it, Rob, since you already ate one cookie.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_10]: Rob, you're better at description anyway.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, I'm supposed to try it.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, it is, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
[SPEAKER_14]: And then you bite into it and then you you you got a little urgent when you touched it.
[SPEAKER_12]: Well, no, I was I was if nothing else.
[SPEAKER_12]: I felt it was rather off putting Because yeah, because it is very far in the kids win life.
[SPEAKER_12]: It is extraordinarily far
[SPEAKER_12]: And then the taste, the taste, the bean curd was really a non-factor inside the jam.
[SPEAKER_12]: Bean jam has pump up the bean jam, but the actual thing itself was not overly sweet.
[SPEAKER_12]: It was just a weird, gooey thing.
[SPEAKER_12]: It tastes to me overly undone.
[SPEAKER_12]: Pony, why do you like it?
[SPEAKER_12]: Well, they're actually pretty good.
[SPEAKER_04]: This is nice counter-argument.
[SPEAKER_04]: The best mochi I've ever had, but what makes good mochi?
[SPEAKER_04]: It's got to be a little bit stickier.
[SPEAKER_04]: You can see it, it's just kind of breaking up like it's supposed to kind of pull.
[SPEAKER_04]: Goly, like ten seconds and go.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, except not as cheap as ten seconds.
[SPEAKER_10]: Not as hard as ten seconds.
[SPEAKER_10]: Is the pleasure of water moch?
[SPEAKER_10]: Like fruit flavor?
[SPEAKER_10]: Is it what?
[SPEAKER_10]: What is the flavor?
[SPEAKER_12]: The flavor is it's actually sort of a starchy, ricy flavor, like almost you know what?
[SPEAKER_12]: Sandies mochies like an under-sweetened rice pudding.
[SPEAKER_12]: We know how rice can sort of take on a sweet flavor.
[SPEAKER_12]: I don't think rice pudding is sweet or very good.
[SPEAKER_12]: A lot of times I reside rely on the rice.
[SPEAKER_10]: All right, sweet.
[SPEAKER_10]: Nothing of this Oscar dive in, let's see.
[SPEAKER_10]: All right, it's going to be great.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, it's going to be great.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, absolutely.
[SPEAKER_10]: Always standing by.
[SPEAKER_10]: Here we go.
[SPEAKER_10]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_03]: It smells fine.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's got powder sugar on it.
[SPEAKER_04]: No, it's like a corn starch or something.
[SPEAKER_09]: What?
[SPEAKER_09]: Gross.
[SPEAKER_09]: Ni Hao, what does that mean?
[SPEAKER_09]: I love it.
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, I got a lot.
[SPEAKER_10]: You really love it?
[SPEAKER_10]: Or are you just doing opposite-to-track?
[SPEAKER_03]: No, I love it, man.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're great.
[SPEAKER_10]: No, no, no.
[SPEAKER_10]: So let me get this straight.
[SPEAKER_10]: You through the delectable nectar known as Nutella into the trash, but you're enjoying the Japanese ascake.
[SPEAKER_10]: Like, it's the greatest.
[SPEAKER_12]: J, C, Mike.
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, hey, reminds me of my childhood.
[SPEAKER_03]: Why?
[SPEAKER_10]: They have these in Bolivia.
[SPEAKER_03]: My mom would cook something similar, but they would be undercooked.
[SPEAKER_03]: And that's when I loved them.
[SPEAKER_03]: What would she cook that was like that?
[SPEAKER_03]: There are similar treats where you put Pokemon on, on pastel, which is a dessert, right?
[SPEAKER_14]: It's Spanish, it's Spanish, it's always so.
[SPEAKER_14]: It's cute.
[SPEAKER_12]: There's the other's treat known as bu-ba-ta-ta-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to chill at twice.
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe you've been there.
[SPEAKER_14]: This is a lovely pastel smell, which is basically called the tonal of the coffee god.
[SPEAKER_14]: Oh, that's a really lovely one.
[SPEAKER_03]: Quick update.
[SPEAKER_03]: We are to aftertaste.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, I'll get it there.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like a little bit earlier.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's the bean jam.
[SPEAKER_10]: That's the bean jam.
[SPEAKER_14]: How would I really hesitate to ask?
[SPEAKER_14]: Because aftertaste is the dangerous thing to talk about.
[SPEAKER_14]: What would you compare the aftertaste to?
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh my God.
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought it was going so well.
[SPEAKER_03]: As a kid, and I'm sure we've all done this.
[SPEAKER_14]: Have you ever, haven't I, by the way, are the exact same page right now?
[SPEAKER_03]: Have you ever looked a battery?
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, no, never had the pleasure.
[SPEAKER_03]: The alkaline taste?
[SPEAKER_03]: Sure, sure.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's what I taste in my mouth right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: Mike, I could tell you what the aftertaste is like.
[SPEAKER_12]: Okay, and then you I don't want to reveal our name.
[SPEAKER_12]: It's not bad.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh my God.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, are we in... Can't get a war stat.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hey, let me get that soda.

[SPEAKER_12]: And in the meantime, we're giving you the best of.
[SPEAKER_12]: Now, this is one of my favorite interviews ever because he is an absolute a-lister, and he loves to give us crap.
[SPEAKER_12]: Mostly Mike, James Patterson.
[SPEAKER_12]: probably the most successful author since Moses stops by to discuss uh at least two of his books he turns them out at a regular basis but what's funny is due to a mix up with the publisher as it stated not my fault Mike did not get a chance to read one of the books that we are discussing and mr. Patterson will not let it go he is a charming funny funny man and i think you will enjoy our discussion with author James Patterson
[SPEAKER_12]: right here on the best of the Michael Marasio.
[SPEAKER_10]: I'm such a fan, this gentleman, James Patterson.
[SPEAKER_10]: And I know he's got a brand new book out called The Noise, but he's also got this out for the eye.
[SPEAKER_10]: I'm going to fan geek out like you.
[SPEAKER_10]: I mean, it is so much fun.
[SPEAKER_10]: I love it.
[SPEAKER_10]: There he is, right there.
[SPEAKER_10]: James Patterson, roughly 6%.
[SPEAKER_10]: of all hard-cover novels like this are sold by this gentleman that we have the honor of talking to today.
[SPEAKER_10]: Mr. Patterson, it is such a thrill and bad news without throwing that out there.
[SPEAKER_02]: Bloods, we got candy.
[SPEAKER_02]: That makes me guess.
[SPEAKER_02]: So many thanks.
[SPEAKER_02]: Got any right.
[SPEAKER_02]: How are you?

[SPEAKER_02]: Not all of that.
[SPEAKER_10]: I have to ask you, has it has the Hudson gone over the banks?
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, it's 30 or 40 feet.
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's just, I mean, this is happening.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I don't know, I don't think it could happen.

[SPEAKER_02]: Do you want to play a horrifying thing?
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I mean, whatever.
[SPEAKER_02]: I know, I get trouble for anything you say now, but you, your wife was a football player.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, whatever.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_10]: OK. You know, I will tell you about, I'll tell you a badger story because we had a guy years and years ago on my radio show with Don, we had Rudy Martsky, who wrote the TV Sports column for USA today.
[SPEAKER_10]: Tough game.
[SPEAKER_10]: And Rudy was responsible.
[SPEAKER_10]: Rudy knew everybody.
[SPEAKER_10]: And so we had, we had every TV sports guest from Jim Nance to Al Michael's to everybody through Rudy Marksky.
[SPEAKER_10]: And when I went to Rudy's home for a party, it was the first time I had ever seen professional or college, an official Wisconsin Badger's bathroom that he had down in his record.
[SPEAKER_05]: We wanted to see another one.
[SPEAKER_10]: We don't American university where I went.
[SPEAKER_10]: We didn't, you know, they even sell that, you know.
[SPEAKER_02]: Look at, well, let's say for, you know, originally she had a banner behind me in this room.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I made her, I made her take it down.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm not going to put up the Vanderbilt banner, you know.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, that's right, you're a Vanderbilt guy, right?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Vanderbilt and Manhattan College.
[SPEAKER_10]: Little more understated at a school like drugs.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, how do you like that?
[SPEAKER_02]: Manhattan College in the Bronx.
[SPEAKER_02]: OK, OK.
[SPEAKER_10]: That was, you know, I mean, that was great.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, that's good.
[SPEAKER_10]: I mean, I tell everybody that wants to go into any kind of media that it's good to have that city experience, you know?
[SPEAKER_10]: I mean, if you're going to a cold gate, which is in the middle of nowhere, but then when you want to get, you know, your feet wet and whatever you want to do, it's great to go to a big city.
[SPEAKER_10]: I think to do, you know, get some education, you know?
[SPEAKER_10]: I mean, I don't, I can tell people, but if you said that, it would have a little bit more weight, you know, you're kind of successful.
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, so what are we talking about?
[SPEAKER_02]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay, it's not your fault, Rob, right?
[SPEAKER_10]: It's not your fault that I got the noise last night.
[SPEAKER_12]: No, they sent it.
[SPEAKER_12]: They sent out the book as soon as they could.
[SPEAKER_12]: They put a track on it and then they said, you know what, let's send them a broken PDF.
[SPEAKER_12]: And they did that right away.
[SPEAKER_10]: And I started to tear into it, but it was, you know, I mean, I got things to do.
[SPEAKER_02]: And this is one of my jokes.
[SPEAKER_02]: You go out and you're out in the Idaho or something.
[SPEAKER_02]: And you're on TV and they read the book, which I don't blame them.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, that's a big ass.
[SPEAKER_02]: But it's always like the same.
[SPEAKER_02]: Tell us about the new book.
[SPEAKER_10]: I'm not going to do that.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, what we have in it, Reed?
[SPEAKER_10]: No, it's not my fault though.
[SPEAKER_10]: It's not my fault.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not my fault.
[SPEAKER_02]: And by the way, I didn't even blame you.
[SPEAKER_02]: I blamed, I blamed the publisher.
[SPEAKER_10]: I'm 15 pages into the noise, and I don't even know if I'm right.
[SPEAKER_10]: With your body of work, let me ask you this question.
[SPEAKER_10]: Because I'm 15 pages, have you ever written anything like that?
[SPEAKER_10]: It starts at, it is not a good, probably not.
[SPEAKER_10]: It's not a normal James Patterson style book.
[SPEAKER_02]: Come on, here's the thing, no, no, it is.
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's like, if I wrote a book with a very little likely Stephen Tang and right, it's, I say, but I say, I can put it on the cover.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is not about Alex Frost, but on the cover, nobody gets shot with a gun in here, but don't worry, thousands of people actually don't, you know, the door is no, they'll sit there and they'll, you know, like, where's Alex?
[SPEAKER_10]: It's horrifying because I don't know, I'm I'm going to get back to it because I don't know, I am I living it actually because I don't know, okay, no, no stop.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I got you.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'm holding this.
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, okay, we'll go where we go, we'll go where we go.
[SPEAKER_10]: I'm going to be before we in the end.
[SPEAKER_02]: I just get as a noise, but excellent.
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay, I just said the noises.
[SPEAKER_10]: I get it.
[SPEAKER_02]: The noise is out there.
[SPEAKER_02]: I have to jump in.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, whatever.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not sure.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_09]: He's not going to be like, well, I can vouch for this.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_10]: No way.
[SPEAKER_10]: I just want to say Oscar Robbe pleased when I came in before it.
[SPEAKER_10]: He was even on our radar for coming on the show.
[SPEAKER_10]: We had no idea.
[SPEAKER_10]: Right.
[SPEAKER_10]: I came in here unsolicited.
[SPEAKER_10]: And I said, I tore through this.
[SPEAKER_10]: more than any James Patterson book I have ever read.
[SPEAKER_12]: It was actually tiresome.
[SPEAKER_10]: The only talk.
[SPEAKER_12]: It was not tiresome, wasn't it?
[SPEAKER_02]: No, hell of a writer.
[SPEAKER_10]: You know, I, in the back of my mind, I want it.
[SPEAKER_10]: Can I ask you with the, look, the noise is on sale now.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, please go buy the noise.
[SPEAKER_10]: Can I tell you good?
[SPEAKER_12]: It's really good.
[SPEAKER_12]: You'll find a link in our show notes, Mike.
[SPEAKER_12]: It doesn't need me, it doesn't need me.
[SPEAKER_12]: I don't do.
[SPEAKER_02]: What do you think I'm here?
[SPEAKER_02]: If I didn't need you, you think I'd be doing it?
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought we were friends.
[SPEAKER_12]: Thought we were friends.
[SPEAKER_02]: All right.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not a kind of book business.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I got it.
[SPEAKER_10]: Can I fan boy on this a little bit please can I do some questions about this because I got a ton of Paul you about this no no and I do a question impression that I've done for years, you know He's got a no problems the little whiskey and whatever the little whiskey because I did I mean very very timely very tired with that comment
[SPEAKER_10]: She's got a documentary coming out.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yep, right.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's time out.
[SPEAKER_10]: So that is relevant.
[SPEAKER_10]: That is relevant.
[SPEAKER_10]: How did the collaboration?
[SPEAKER_10]: I mean, this is the second book you've written with President Clinton.
[SPEAKER_10]: How did that collaboration come about?
[SPEAKER_10]: That's a generic question you've been asked about in the first one.
[SPEAKER_02]: We have the same lawyer, agent, whatever.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he knew that President loves thrillers.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he reads everything.
[SPEAKER_02]: And, you know, and they've been trying to get him to do a thriller forever, and, you know, and then, and they said, well, how do you like to do home with James Patterson?
[SPEAKER_02]: She said, well, why would Patterson want to do home with me?
[SPEAKER_02]: And they called me up and I said, I'm in, you know, and the reason was that it won.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, I tell you, I'm on the river here.
[SPEAKER_02]: Up to river is where I grew up, New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New
[SPEAKER_02]: This is great.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, yeah, I mean, unless you start talking to somebody and there's no chemistry.
[SPEAKER_02]: But there was chemistry and the thing about the books with President Clinton is the notion of the authenticity and then we just headed off with, we're friends, he gave what he gave me for Christmas, a monopoly for socialists.
[SPEAKER_12]: Now, did you what did you give him for Christmas?
[SPEAKER_12]: Oh, Mike is gone.
[SPEAKER_12]: Now, Mike's gone.
[SPEAKER_02]: He's just seen me.
[SPEAKER_02]: I gave him a ponder that said, it was a silver and it's set on the side of it.
[SPEAKER_02]: What a matter of two pun.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, so easy.
[SPEAKER_02]: Guarantee two pun?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Guarantee two pun.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was, you know, it would seem like, yeah, because any needs that I'll tell you.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll tell you a story, you know, it's it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Actually, I'm doing an autobiography, just stories.
[SPEAKER_02]: And one of them is the first time we went out and we went golfing.
[SPEAKER_02]: And his people said, hey, I'll only play nine holes.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I go, great.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't care.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to put in green with them for ten minutes.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're playing.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I don't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: Fourth, if they're tall, it's a par three.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he's got about eight flip plots of birdie.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he leaves it like four foot short.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I look at him and I said, you pussy.
[SPEAKER_02]: You call me a pussy, and I said, yeah, we're right.
[SPEAKER_02]: I am a pussy, and that's where, and I shouldn't do this on this show, but because we do, we, we make it different in the book a little bit.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's funny, it's funny to think we did with it, but the thing of it is, if we're together and we're out, it's Mr. President, Mr. President, you know, very respectful as it should be.
[SPEAKER_02]: But if we're together, just, you know, two guys, he's from a small town from a small town.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, and it's fun.
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay, it's great.
[SPEAKER_10]: The uh, when I don't want to talk to you, I'm sorry about that.
[SPEAKER_10]: And you were talking about golf.
[SPEAKER_10]: And I, you know, I mean, I love the game more than anybody in the world.
[SPEAKER_10]: So that's me.
[SPEAKER_10]: The stop at stop laughing at me.
[SPEAKER_10]: I'm doing my best.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was laughing at you.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're laughing with you.
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_10]: I'm going to get a little storm.
[SPEAKER_10]: With our guest, Mike.
[SPEAKER_10]: coming through here all the time.
[SPEAKER_10]: Always be as good as I've got.
[SPEAKER_10]: When it comes to and people that I told my listeners about this book about a month ago, and about the noise, I told them yesterday about the noise.
[SPEAKER_10]: You know, I, James Patterson and who is your, who are you mentoring on this particular book that is joining the name is JD Barker.
[SPEAKER_02]: JD Barker.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_02]: So the, but the president, you know what the president is the water.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that one.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_10]: It's amazing.
[SPEAKER_10]: It's truly amazing.
[SPEAKER_10]: And what makes it amazing is.
[SPEAKER_02]: No one happens in a battle.
[SPEAKER_02]: You can really spoil it for them.
[SPEAKER_10]: Well, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
[SPEAKER_10]: And I was just curious, because in the back of my mind the whole time I'm reading the book, I said, well, this is this is where I would have assumed the insights from President Clinton.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, a lot of that.
[SPEAKER_02]: The first book, the first book, it was a president and office.
[SPEAKER_02]: The second book, the president's daughter, it's a president, you know, after office, which of course President Clinton has,
[SPEAKER_02]: experience.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so he had a lot of insights in terms of, you know, what it's like, what's good about it, what's not so good about it.
[SPEAKER_02]: And in this case, he really needs a lot of help to try to find his daughter, but he's not president anymore.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, and he knows where he can call him favorites, and he knows where he can.
[SPEAKER_10]: It's, uh, it's so much fun and, and I just, uh, tore through it and, uh, as far as I know, it's kind of stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: Read, uh, welcome my combat boots.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you really want the documentary, the real deal, that thing will blow your mind.
[SPEAKER_10]: And it's so timely.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's so timely right now that we're going to have for a while, but yeah, more than ever.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but it's just, it's just story after, I think you're just 50 once, whatever the hell.
[SPEAKER_02]: And each one is about six or seven pages.
[SPEAKER_02]: And you just get like a wonderful, like one woman, she's from Buffalo and after nine eleven, she went to the Marines and she said, I don't want to go.
[SPEAKER_02]: But put me in combat and they say, we can't put you in combat at that point.
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, so what's the worst, the most dangerous thing, and she said, well, Darway Garner on a helicopter.
[SPEAKER_02]: So she had to go to the four different schools, and because she was a woman, and she had to be first in every school.
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's like five six pages.
[SPEAKER_02]: Wow.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a dentist who goes in, and he's in the reserves.
[SPEAKER_02]: And after they caught,
[SPEAKER_03]: That's how I'm in London.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he had two fakes.
[SPEAKER_02]: So they brought him in to be the dentist for, you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So he's got all these stories.
[SPEAKER_02]: And you know, he said, I just made up the weapons and mass destruction, and you guys bought it, you know?
[SPEAKER_10]: However, when you were so are you fascinated with the inner workings of like the secret service and special forces and that kind of because there was like an enthusiasm in the book about all that.
[SPEAKER_02]: I like humanity of the president loves the secret service guys and I like them too.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're it's really interesting though, like I had to get used to it.
[SPEAKER_02]: You come into his house or anywhere where he is and they're like statues.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, they won't say a word to you, but then you go, hey, you're tired of how long you have a family and then they won't shut up.
[SPEAKER_02]: Once you have to initiate it or there's nothing.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, that's okay, that's good.
[SPEAKER_10]: It's great.
[SPEAKER_10]: And the noise, as I said before, is 15 pages, 15 pages was not my fault, but I'm going to finish the noise.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's all about what you said.
[SPEAKER_02]: You was 15 pages.
[SPEAKER_02]: 15 pages noise.
[SPEAKER_02]: Years, years, what I think is cool about the noise.
[SPEAKER_02]: I do this very quickly.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you can put a suspense hook into the readers, we're like, I got to know, how the hell is this happening?
[SPEAKER_02]: And in this case, it's this noise that's destroying everything as it blasts through the Northwest.
[SPEAKER_02]: And there are surprises along the way.
[SPEAKER_02]: I suppose to a one night thing, one note thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then the ending is really cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: You all like, wow.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, a lot of times they'll set the hook, and that's it.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they just set the hook, and there's the hook, and there's the hook, and there's the hook, and then the end, it's aliens.
[SPEAKER_10]: You know, it's interesting you say that because reading a book starting the noise, you have absolutely no clue what's going on.
[SPEAKER_10]: You're lost, you're completely and utterly lost.
[SPEAKER_10]: And that's the hook, isn't it?
[SPEAKER_10]: Well, you know better than anybody.
[SPEAKER_02]: How could this possibly happen?
[SPEAKER_02]: This can't be happening.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the characters are going this can't be happening.
[SPEAKER_02]: But it's happening.
[SPEAKER_10]: It's not, it's not, it's not aliens, spoiler alert and it's not God and it's not God, it's not God and you I have no idea and this is I'm not getting it only 15 pages when I talk about grabbing a reader do you have I remember the last time we spoke if I thought I would reach out and grab you Mike
[SPEAKER_02]: But I just can't, how come you're audio went out?
[SPEAKER_02]: All I know is I was going for a while again?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_10]: All I know is gone for a while and came back in James Patterson was insulting somebody on a golf course and I have no idea who the hell it was.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: Do you talk about how it was?
[SPEAKER_02]: I was a great president.
[SPEAKER_02]: Which one?
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not going to get into it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Come on.
[SPEAKER_02]: Clinton Trump and Bush senior.
[SPEAKER_10]: Who's the best golfer?
[SPEAKER_10]: Who's the absolute product?
[SPEAKER_10]: Trump is he is really the best golfer.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, by far by a line.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, I'm not going to get it to who's the worst.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not wasn't going to ask you to go to the golf course to fast this bush.
[SPEAKER_10]: He was speedy.
[SPEAKER_10]: That was that was his thing speed golf.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_10]: So so senior you play with you to play with W. No.
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_12]: I think the answer there would be not yet.
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_10]: Very, very exciting.
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_02]: I like the work close.
[SPEAKER_02]: He's a pretty nice guy.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're close.
[SPEAKER_02]: Made him a couple.
[SPEAKER_03]: With the Bush family, we produce the 41st presidential library's podcast.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh yeah, so good people.
[SPEAKER_03]: Good people, good people.
[SPEAKER_02]: I agree, I agree.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm not really, I kind of lean the other way, but I like them very much.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I got to spend time with, with senior and wife.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they were very dynamic.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because she did all the stuff to get people reading.

[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_12]: I believe it's a thriller set in a basement, isn't it?
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, you're not looking.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, if you do the right stuff, where are you?
[SPEAKER_02]: Are you in Florida now?
[SPEAKER_10]: I mean, I'm the other side from your side.
[SPEAKER_10]: I'm on the Fort Myers area.
[SPEAKER_10]: That's right.
[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe we're something terrible over there.
[SPEAKER_02]: You can get your book.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, if I go.
[SPEAKER_02]: I've written about people from Florida.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_10]: You know what?
[SPEAKER_10]: If I went over to a school board meeting down here, I might do something here.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's pretty crazy what though.
[SPEAKER_02]: I watch this thing they keep showing the scene of punches are flying and I look at this thing I go they're no punches.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was kept there weren't people a little bit.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, you know punches are flying.
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's see the punches
[SPEAKER_10]: It was, let me tell you, I, and I haven't been doing it all.
[SPEAKER_10]: I haven't been, I'm an elderly father within eight, eight year old in school.
[SPEAKER_10]: I believe the science, I want them to wear masks.
[SPEAKER_10]: I had no idea, A, that there was a large contingent of people that didn't want people to wear masks and that they were that s crazy and that they all showed up at the school board meeting and it was terrifying.
[SPEAKER_10]: It was absolutely, but you're right.
[SPEAKER_10]: There weren't really punches strong.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're a little pushing, not in a clip that they
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, that's the one that they, I'm sure, and obviously they're had punches have been thrown in supermarkets and whatever.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, it's a people people get to nuts and we're divided and that's the way because anyway we're getting lost here in the I know and I don't want to you know but I do want to ask you with the virus and everything that we've been talking about everything we've been living the last two years uh is there anything on your radar in that uh in that vein?
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, I mean you're moving into different areas with the guys.
[SPEAKER_02]: I just got my third shot
[SPEAKER_10]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_10]: I was talking about a book James that would write about a book, a book, a book about, you know, viruses, you know, no, we just shot.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's very important.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I know.
[SPEAKER_02]: I have no interest in writing about that.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll tell you what though.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, in this sense.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I mentioned the combat boots in October.
[SPEAKER_02]: I have a nonfiction similar kind of style where this friend of mine Matt Everston and he was the actual sergeant who was portrayed in Blackhawk down.
[SPEAKER_02]: He's a buddy of mine from Florida and he's great at talking to people and most soldiers won't talk about what they did over there other than to other soldiers because they just think people wouldn't understand and they don't for the most part.
[SPEAKER_02]: Nurses are the same way.
[SPEAKER_02]: especially emergency room nurses.
[SPEAKER_02]: And this book is, it's called the Art Nurses.
[SPEAKER_02]: And once again, it's just stunning about, you know, the stories.
[SPEAKER_02]: And we try not to go too heavy on on COVID.
[SPEAKER_02]: But there are some, you know, and I remember one of the nurses talks about how,
[SPEAKER_02]: everything, all the human stuff had to go away.
[SPEAKER_02]: They just didn't have time, but at one point she just found herself.
[SPEAKER_02]: She took off her gloves and she just held this woman's hand as she was dying.
[SPEAKER_02]: And she said, I have to, I just had to do the human thing and take off the gloves because I felt this woman needed to touch a human being and, you know, whatever.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, but it's, once again, it's just a stunning book and that's coming in October.
[SPEAKER_02]: What is wrong with me?
[SPEAKER_02]: Why do I keep putting these books out?
[SPEAKER_10]: I will tell you, though, during these times.
[SPEAKER_10]: I mean, I know it's an old cliche, but curling up with a book.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_10]: I mean, I don't, I'm, I listen, I went to American University.

[SPEAKER_12]: It's the best of the micro-marisho with Mrs. Spuac's Little Boy Robby.
[SPEAKER_12]: Please don't call me Robby.
[SPEAKER_12]: Rob Spuac here, this is one of the more surreal segments that we've ever done, and it's a recurring segment, and if we had to explain it to someone who didn't understand the construction of the micro-marisho, they'd say you're crazy.
[SPEAKER_12]: But what it is is Mike's impression of Larry King, this obviously when Larry was alive,
[SPEAKER_12]: Mike pretends to be Larry King and calls Oscar's mom, so it's Larry King and Yolli Zabios.
[SPEAKER_12]: Just enjoy this.
[SPEAKER_12]: This is so choice.
[SPEAKER_12]: Wonderful stuff on the best of the Michael Marizzo.
[SPEAKER_10]: I believe that Oscar had mentioned to me yesterday that Mrs. Santana is in need of mom on call.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, look, my mom is going through a transition in her life.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that if we're all lucky, all of our parents will go through when they can retire, right?
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, they may burden you, like my mom has myself, my sister, my brother, and my father with that retirement.
[SPEAKER_10]: I think you've got that big family, so yeah, yeah, exactly.
[SPEAKER_03]: Not that we want to, but we have to,
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, and uh, it's it's been a little tough because she's been calling a lot.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like I'm talking Three four times a day about she is getting ready to leave the work for she already has and now she's left She's left the workforce.
[SPEAKER_10]: What is the dilemma?
[SPEAKER_10]: What is she having?
[SPEAKER_03]: Is she looking for you to entertain her new job?
[SPEAKER_03]: Is calling her kids Mike and when she called us once a week.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was cool, but now it's out of control
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, okay yesterday.
[SPEAKER_03]: I snapped at her because she had a gentleman taking down the Christmas lights from the house and then she asked them to put a bird house to the back as well and I said, mom, you can't just tell people to do other jobs that they're not there to do, right?
[SPEAKER_12]: I think they were like just general handymen.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, the guy wrote me and said, hey, I think your mom thinks just a random contract of the show up, but I do this every year to come down the lights.
[SPEAKER_10]: But she asked us to put up the, she was not happy.
[SPEAKER_03]: He was cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: He's like, you go, did you ask us to build a bird house?
[SPEAKER_03]: Cause I don't remember having that conversation.
[SPEAKER_03]: Why?
[SPEAKER_03]: My mom's a wonderful woman, and I'll give a kidney, any type of organ that I can live without keeping me poor with that dye, she can cook anything, but she's making this, she's making this, she's making this, she's making this, she's made them before.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sure.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I think she's a pep talk and I'll greeting from Larry King if that's fine.
[SPEAKER_03]: Very good.
[SPEAKER_10]: I will follow your lead.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_10]: I will follow along.
[SPEAKER_12]: Now real quick, though, as is sort of bedrock before we make the call here, you have called her as Larry King before and I believe it was around the holidays and at the Christmas dinner she was telling everyone in the family that she spoke to Larry King because she's a big fan has the truth ever come out that it wasn't Larry.
[SPEAKER_12]: No, and she still existing in a world.
[SPEAKER_10]: Rob, let me just ask, is there a message you want Larry to give her?
[SPEAKER_03]: I want you to congratulate, I want Larry to congratulate her on her retirement and congratulate her on her computer classes and congratulate her on having a great son that's making it in broadcasting and congratulate her on my MBA and congratulate her on my pending nupsholes and congratulate her on all positive I can do all about me, please.
[SPEAKER_12]: Anything bad you'd like her to say about your siblings?
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, no, no, no, no, that's too exciting.
[SPEAKER_03]: He wouldn't know that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to call my mom.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to pre-call my mom.
[SPEAKER_03]: All right.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that you should do it on the air.
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm going to make sure that she's available to call her right back because I don't want her on our main line.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't want my dad to mess this up.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, is he in the country?
[SPEAKER_03]: That's a big Larry fan too, and he might want to get on the horn.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, no.
[SPEAKER_10]: And he might be savvy.
[SPEAKER_10]: I get the impression dad might have.
[SPEAKER_12]: Well, yeah, of course.
[SPEAKER_12]: He's a sharp guy.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hi, hi, man.

[SPEAKER_11]: Yes.

[SPEAKER_11]: Do you have any questions for me, Yoli?
[SPEAKER_06]: No.
[SPEAKER_06]: The only question I have is how you're doing with yourself.
[SPEAKER_11]: I could do better.
[SPEAKER_11]: You know, I smoked a lot of cigarettes back in the day.
[SPEAKER_11]: And it's kind of catching up with me now, you know.
[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, you do, you better hold on tight, you did, you stopped.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, that's right.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's right, Yoli.

[SPEAKER_12]: The O.T.
[SPEAKER_12]: M.O.S.
[SPEAKER_12]: Bot Moss makes the very best podcast.
[SPEAKER_12]: It's the best of the Michael Marisho from Martin Luther King Day.
[SPEAKER_12]: Mike is forever trying different diets.
[SPEAKER_12]: And he's in the middle of a real successful one right now.
[SPEAKER_12]: Thanks to Derm Glow.
[SPEAKER_12]: But...
[SPEAKER_12]: Here he had just started Keto, and I think a lot of times Keto affects people in the other direction, but Mike was experiencing, how shall we say?
[SPEAKER_12]: A kind of urgency?
[SPEAKER_12]: I will just say this.
[SPEAKER_12]: What can Brown do for you on the best of the micro-marasion?
[SPEAKER_10]: All right, so a couple of things I wanted to get to here are just briefly that a buddy of mine told me that when you go on keto, he actually went off the keto diet because it creates a bit of urgency at the wrong time.
[SPEAKER_10]: And I'm here to tell him that, yeah, I think that there is an adjustment period digestively that one has to go to.
[SPEAKER_10]: And I am now in a zone where my digestive functions kick in only at the worst possible time, only when exclusive words, exclusively at the brown zone comes at the wrong time.
[SPEAKER_10]: What is the wrong time?
[SPEAKER_10]: Well, maybe it would be clearer for you if I gave you the right time.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: What would be in the perfect world, what would brown do for you?
[SPEAKER_10]: Brown at the in the perfect world, it would be early AM.
[SPEAKER_10]: Sure.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_12]: Like maybe first thing out of bed.
[SPEAKER_10]: Like that would be amazing.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, I mean if it was a complete total.
[SPEAKER_10]: Even though there's a lot of pages then.
[SPEAKER_10]: Well, you know what?
[SPEAKER_10]: It's just if it was evacuating first thing in the morning with that sound.
[SPEAKER_10]: If that sound went off, it's like clear the next with it.
[SPEAKER_10]: You know, when it's not, when it's not is when we've gathered up the youngsters, we've popped him into the vehicle and we've gone out to the big box store.
[SPEAKER_10]: I am not an officianato of using a public facility.
[SPEAKER_10]: You know what a public facility represents to me to a certain extent, lack of control.
[SPEAKER_10]: That if you had the control, you would have planned it and you would have gone it.
[SPEAKER_10]: That if you want to drop a winky tank, that you may have been drinking water all day, that's a whole different thing, but I was in the nightmare.
[SPEAKER_03]: Still hot.
[SPEAKER_12]: I'm a big fan of Costco as you know, but I'm not a fan of their bathroom facilities.
[SPEAKER_10]: So any special work?
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, a story, you know, I was in this occurred to me when Mrs. O'Mara on Saturday Sunday, don't know which day it was wanted to do a little Christmas shopping at our high end department store marshals and she wanted to go out to marshals and we're in marshals and I said we're driving it's about 20 minutes to this shopping center and we're about 15 minutes in and I said to Carla.
[SPEAKER_10]: I said to her, is it true story?
[SPEAKER_10]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_10]: You need to turn the car around now.
[SPEAKER_10]: A band and ship.
[SPEAKER_10]: And then it's just like, oh, they are said to the car.
[SPEAKER_10]: My colon would best be described as going.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, and then and then it receded and then receded and by the time we got to Marshall's parking lot, it was back going, and we walk into the marshals and I say, I have to use the facilities.
[SPEAKER_10]: Doesn't matter.
[SPEAKER_10]: I don't know if I hear what it might feel for tonight.
[SPEAKER_10]: And I go and I walk to one side where the dressing rooms were, which is normally where you would put the rest rooms.
[SPEAKER_10]: And that's when the lady says, no, the rest rooms are over there.
[SPEAKER_10]: She points to the entire other end of the box where they have their picked over.
[SPEAKER_10]: Quick question.
[SPEAKER_10]: Did she give you a number?
[SPEAKER_10]: Usually got to get a number.
[SPEAKER_10]: No, nothing.
[SPEAKER_10]: That's for the dressing room.
[SPEAKER_10]: And these were the rest rooms.
[SPEAKER_12]: And thank God Mike, you didn't do it.
[SPEAKER_12]: Most Marshall patrons do it.
[SPEAKER_12]: Just use the dressing room.
[SPEAKER_10]: Give me eight, I'm gonna leave eight.
[SPEAKER_10]: So, some of the pins on the floor.
[SPEAKER_10]: I book it across the floor at Marshalls.
[SPEAKER_10]: And as I book across, I get there, I walk in.
[SPEAKER_10]: You know, it's got that warehousey kind of like dirty door.
[SPEAKER_10]: Hurry up for the women at feet.
[SPEAKER_10]: I go in and two-stall are.
[SPEAKER_10]: First-stall says, out of order.
[SPEAKER_09]: Oh, no.
[SPEAKER_10]: Second-stall, handicapped.
[SPEAKER_10]: I look underneath there the dancing old man feet.
[SPEAKER_10]: 85-year-old is there and he's and then I sit there and say all right control self-controlled just wait it looked to me that the feet were moving because business may have been completed Oh, but not a sexual manner like we seen an airplane now and the knees weren't locked like in Dumb and Dumber so and then I hear and then I hear this I hear this so it's like you hear the water run Yeah, and then you hear
[SPEAKER_10]: He's tearing off paper towels, but not one.
[SPEAKER_10]: Not two, not three, five paper tasks.
[SPEAKER_10]: I said, what is Jack Nicholson from his good as it gets in the other stall?
[SPEAKER_10]: Right.
[SPEAKER_10]: What is going on?
[SPEAKER_10]: Why?
[SPEAKER_10]: And then I found out why, because then I, I'm so phobic of other people, that I'm not gonna stand there and be staring at him.
[SPEAKER_10]: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, I'm really doing his way done that before.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, like when you're, when you're at casino and you're shadowing somebody.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, if you don't want the machine, right?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I don't want the know that any to go on that machine.
[SPEAKER_03]: So you're pretending to be in the casino?
[SPEAKER_03]: No, but you, you're likely to get playing at a machine.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't want you to go.
[SPEAKER_10]: I just believe and I walk in and it's one of those.
[SPEAKER_03]: Was he over?
[SPEAKER_10]: Was he shuffling?
[SPEAKER_10]: didn't see because I had my back to him come on.
[SPEAKER_09]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_09]: I want to know.
[SPEAKER_10]: And when I walk in, it's one of those handy capsules that has its own sink.
[SPEAKER_10]: You know, the top.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, that's a nice lot of luxury and pristine.
[SPEAKER_10]: I guess the five paper towels may have been him doing whatever he had it, but the place was spark stuffing.
[SPEAKER_10]: And I relaxed and then after I concluded, I just bounced.
[SPEAKER_10]: out of the uh... the mansion right over there oh i watch i say hello carla what are we doing today what are we la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
[SPEAKER_03]: don't know.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, got no idea.
[SPEAKER_12]: And also was there ever a period where there was no urgency whatsoever, because when you go on a protein rich diet, sometimes it puts the break on the system.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, you know, I'm going in between that.
[SPEAKER_10]: It's just not, yeah, yeah, I can't set my clock to anything right on.
[SPEAKER_10]: I'm using the whole enhancement, too.
[SPEAKER_10]: I use a little the old powder at night.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, yeah, plumbing going a little bit.
[SPEAKER_10]: Orange, orange flavored?
[SPEAKER_03]: No,
[SPEAKER_10]: Uh, no carbs and dykes.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Really?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I do not know that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just the chemicals.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's chemicals.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's all.
[SPEAKER_10]: But I'll be honest with you.
[SPEAKER_10]: I could be feeling a little urgency right now.
[SPEAKER_12]: the best of the micro-marisho remember we are back live in studio tomorrow and we look forward to talking to you then now uh... nostalgic corner is a segment that i do occasionally on the show where we look back on something in the past could be a movie could be uh... song uh... in this case it's a television show
[SPEAKER_12]: And this is a show that I love, as a matter of fact, when I was down for the count, thanks to my weak liver, I watched the entire series, and it was a lovely time because it caused my wife to come home one day and before she even asked how I was doing remember, I cheated death.
[SPEAKER_12]: Before she even asked how I was doing, she looked at me and she says, I hate Columbus.
[SPEAKER_12]: Well, I do not hate Columbus, and hopefully you won't hate Columbus after you get the backstory of one of the greatest detective dramas of all time.
[SPEAKER_12]: Also, a little fun with the name Peter Faulk.
[SPEAKER_12]: We determined about whether or not the man wears a glass eye, and also a great look back on a wonderful television show.
[SPEAKER_12]: We will see you tomorrow right here as we do a brand new show for you, but until then have a great day and enjoy the best of the micro-marin show.
[SPEAKER_10]: We are going to replace the home page today with Rob's nostalgia corner because Rob's have this one in the oven for quite some time.
[SPEAKER_10]: So take it away.
[SPEAKER_10]: Rob's B-way.
[SPEAKER_12]: I was going over the things that we have spotlighted on the nostalgia corner and we've done a music and we've done a lot of movies but you know we've really not dived in a lot as TV and there are certain TV series that I really like and so I would like to well if I made just just one more thing.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, man, man, just let me turn around right now.
[SPEAKER_10]: That's where you even aware of Columbus.
[SPEAKER_03]: As only reason I know about Columbus is because of Captain Steve.
[SPEAKER_12]: No, but he watched, he watched, he watched Cannon.
[SPEAKER_12]: Oh, sorry, different guy.
[SPEAKER_10]: I don't know Columbus.
[SPEAKER_10]: All right.
[SPEAKER_10]: You never watched him.
[SPEAKER_10]: Are you even aware of Peter Falk the actor?
[SPEAKER_10]: now he would know him as the grandfather in the princess bride the one that told the story yes that's it yeah my god one of the greatest legendary actor quirky actor an american original uh... somebody that we've never seen on screen before and uh... and really probably one of the most successful the tech shows ever that lock show it was yeah it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it
[SPEAKER_12]: It actually said itself a part early on and I'll get into that.
[SPEAKER_12]: Here's something that's great about it.
[SPEAKER_12]: It was a drama that ran from 1971 to 2003.
[SPEAKER_12]: That's 30.
[SPEAKER_12]: Oh, I'm sorry.
[SPEAKER_12]: But forgot the announcer at the end.
[SPEAKER_12]: Drama.
[SPEAKER_12]: That's a drama.
[SPEAKER_12]: What years?
[SPEAKER_12]: It was Iran for 32 years from 71 to 2003, but only 68 episodes.
[SPEAKER_12]: and I'll explain it in a little bit.
[SPEAKER_12]: The character of Columbus was created by the writing team of Richard Levison and William Link.
[SPEAKER_12]: You see them on a lot of shows throughout the history of television.
[SPEAKER_12]: And they said they actually based the character on Dostoevsky's crime and punishment character Petrovich.
[SPEAKER_12]: So Columbus actually based in classic French literature, which is kind of crazy.
[SPEAKER_12]: And it started as a night.
[SPEAKER_12]: This is a weird sort of backstory.
[SPEAKER_14]: watch it again.
[SPEAKER_14]: When you do in the style of your corner, yeah, I watch.
[SPEAKER_14]: I was like, oh, because I just, I just mentioned the engagement.
[SPEAKER_14]: All right.
[SPEAKER_12]: It has a like shoot him up.
[SPEAKER_12]: It has a great backstory.
[SPEAKER_12]: It started as a 1960 TV drama that was adapted to a stage play.
[SPEAKER_12]: So it started on TV, then went to stage it called Colombo.
[SPEAKER_12]: No, it was, uh, I don't have the name of it here, but it was a columbo in this stage play was played by Thomas Mitchell, who was Scarlet O'Harris' father and gone with the win.
[SPEAKER_12]: This is the name columbo sound a little dorky, in what way?
[SPEAKER_12]: It just doesn't sound like an action guy.
[SPEAKER_12]: Well, I think that's sort of by design, because when you get into its character, he was on the Thomas Mitchell was opposite Joseph Cotton and Agnes Morhead who played Endora on Bewetch.
[SPEAKER_12]: This isn't a nostalgic corner, and so after it was on stage in 1962, it was adapted back to TV by the same guys, few years later, and guess who they went out and really wanted to play Columbo.
[SPEAKER_12]: By that time did they have the name Colombo?
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, the Colombo was nailed down.
[SPEAKER_12]: He was going to be in the stage play, but the play was not called the one.
[SPEAKER_12]: Tell us about us.
[SPEAKER_12]: No, not that.
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay, hold on.
[SPEAKER_10]: So they're going out to get an A list guy.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, I want you to keep this in mind.
[SPEAKER_12]: The character of Colombo evolved after Falk took it.
[SPEAKER_12]: Burt Reynolds.
[SPEAKER_12]: So don't think.
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay, well then then describe to me.
[SPEAKER_10]: Well, are you able to describe what kind of character it was before Peter Fock made the character his own.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, it was more of a smooth talker slick detective.
[SPEAKER_12]: Go ahead.
[SPEAKER_11]: Jack Cassidy.
[SPEAKER_12]: No, but don't read ahead.
[SPEAKER_12]: They
[SPEAKER_12]: Wanted and threw a lot of money at Bing Crosby to play Columbus.
[SPEAKER_12]: I would have been a horror right it would be awful.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh my god Yeah, Bing Crosby straight down the middle.
[SPEAKER_10]: Hey, blah, blah, blah.
[SPEAKER_09]: But I think my weird giant.
[SPEAKER_09]: Let me beat you.
[SPEAKER_09]: We have I think you appreciate it.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, Gary Johnny Crosby
[SPEAKER_10]: Johnny little Johnny Crosby.
[SPEAKER_12]: I think you'll appreciate the fact that Ben Crosby gave when he declined the part He said a weekly series of getting the way of my golf game.
[SPEAKER_10]: There you go.
[SPEAKER_10]: That a boy.
[SPEAKER_12]: So he took it out there you go So the producers on a sort of on a lark they went after Peter Fock He took it.
[SPEAKER_12]: They did one made for TV movie and it was a smash So right away NBC wanted a weekly series and Fox said no because he was still making movies
[SPEAKER_12]: I can't do it every week because I've got other stuff for texting.
[SPEAKER_12]: I want to see what it looks like.
[SPEAKER_10]: I just want to see if you're talking clumber.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, well, it was goofy.
[SPEAKER_12]: It was a UV quirky guy.
[SPEAKER_12]: So Mike, they invented something.
[SPEAKER_12]: They invented something called a wheel show or a wheel series.
[SPEAKER_12]: And do you remember that every Wednesday night on the show?
[SPEAKER_10]: Let me see if I got right.
[SPEAKER_10]: You have McCloud.
[SPEAKER_12]: Right, exactly.
[SPEAKER_10]: You had a clumber.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, and then there was one more in the original wheel.
[SPEAKER_12]: They would rotate them.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, oh, oh, oh, wait a minute.
[SPEAKER_10]: Wait, was it Barnaby Jones?
[SPEAKER_10]: No, McMillan and wife.
[SPEAKER_12]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_12]: I know, not great.
[SPEAKER_12]: Not great.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, that's what you look like.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is what Daniel Bryan's going to be in Ruffley.
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's say.
[SPEAKER_10]: No way.
[SPEAKER_10]: No, I don't think it was he a drunk.
[SPEAKER_12]: No, no, not at all not at all.
[SPEAKER_10]: No, what he was, you know what he was, what they didn't see him come and ask her.
[SPEAKER_10]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_10]: They didn't see him come in.
[SPEAKER_10]: That's the whole thing.
[SPEAKER_10]: They did not see you never knew that Columbus was figuring stuff out because he was a brilliant detective.
[SPEAKER_10]: It was
[SPEAKER_12]: the NBC mystery movie was called a wheel series.
[SPEAKER_12]: They did a similar thing later on with a party boys and Nancy Drew, where they would alternate.
[SPEAKER_12]: And because of that, what a show would take one week to film, Columbus would have four weeks to film.
[SPEAKER_12]: And TV historians agree because they had that extra time that added to the quality of the show and why it holds up.
[SPEAKER_10]: You don't want to get that because that was the anchor too.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh yeah.
[SPEAKER_12]: Is it in Peter folk?
[SPEAKER_12]: Fuck.
[SPEAKER_09]: Fuck.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, I'm sorry.
[SPEAKER_09]: So fuck me.
[SPEAKER_09]: Fuck you.
[SPEAKER_09]: Fuck me.
[SPEAKER_09]: Peter, I had, I had some man when he's not rumpled.
[SPEAKER_10]: Well, also just, he had, what he had was screen presence.
[SPEAKER_10]: He really had a, not a way about it.
[SPEAKER_12]: Like, not like anyone else.
[SPEAKER_12]: It was immediate hit.
[SPEAKER_12]: He won an Emmy for his role in the first season.
[SPEAKER_12]: And his style was extraordinarily different.
[SPEAKER_12]: He was not slacker-hand.
[SPEAKER_12]: He dressed like a flasher.
[SPEAKER_12]: He was bumbling, clumsy, and trench coat.
[SPEAKER_12]: Now I'm just a detective with the trench.
[SPEAKER_12]: I'm glad you brought up his wardrobe.
[SPEAKER_12]: His wardrobe consisted of Peter Fox' own clothes.
[SPEAKER_10]: That doesn't surprise me.
[SPEAKER_12]: Including the Shabby suit, talked about the raincoat, which appeared in the first episode for $15.1967 when he got caught in a New York City rainstorm and he added the cigar as a personal touch.
[SPEAKER_12]: So the character is very much Peter Fox invented.
[SPEAKER_12]: No, I almost freaked out.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, hey, I have a question about Rob, I don't know where you know the answer.
[SPEAKER_10]: What's the matter, Oscar?
[SPEAKER_10]: What happened?
[SPEAKER_03]: Mark Rufflow was in talks to make a Colombo movie.
[SPEAKER_03]: Mark Rufflow would be perfect.
[SPEAKER_10]: I agree.
[SPEAKER_10]: Mark Ruffalo would be perfect for that, and I would, you know what, that I wouldn't mind being updated.
[SPEAKER_10]: Although it does fall into the category of Hollywood, make an original movie, especially when you have guys like our previous guest, turning out original content, you know, really when you think about it.
[SPEAKER_10]: And of course, many of James Patterson's, I think he's one, of course, I think he's one six Emmys.
[SPEAKER_10]: I think James Patterson is one six Emmys, but that's what I like.
[SPEAKER_10]: I like it when they do this one.
[SPEAKER_10]: I, that's what I was thinking halfway through this book was this will be a great movie or it could be a TV movie.
[SPEAKER_10]: It doesn't matter.
[SPEAKER_10]: But I will tell you something about Peter Fock and I was going to ask you the I was he really blinded one on he has a glass I believe.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, he has a glass.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, right.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, so he has a glass.
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, and real life Oscar.
[SPEAKER_11]: So that's why it's like I am just one.
[SPEAKER_10]: No, what are he's rocking?
[SPEAKER_12]: Now, you don't know for sure, though.
[SPEAKER_12]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_12]: I'll always not write it on the assumption that he was.
[SPEAKER_12]: Now, I've had you brought up the fact that he was sort of bumbling and they didn't see him coming, because this is another thing that fought created.
[SPEAKER_12]: He adlibbed all of Columbia's Columbus, idiosyncrasies, to keep the actors that he was acting with off guard, to make them look more bothered or more sort of off balance when they're doing their scenes, because
[SPEAKER_10]: What are the idiocincrecies there?
[SPEAKER_12]: Like he would fumble for a pencil or find a piece of string in his pocket.
[SPEAKER_12]: Or something like that.
[SPEAKER_12]: I often one was, excuse me, do you have a match?
[SPEAKER_12]: I just need a match.
[SPEAKER_12]: And that wouldn't be in this script.
[SPEAKER_12]: He would just do that to throw people out.
[SPEAKER_09]: I got it.
[SPEAKER_09]: Fulk.
[SPEAKER_10]: Fulk.
[SPEAKER_10]: Like will you know William Fockner?
[SPEAKER_10]: Fulk.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh, no.
[SPEAKER_10]: Just take the nerve off.
[SPEAKER_10]: And it's Fulk.
[SPEAKER_10]: Peter Fulk.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hear the can is wrong.
[SPEAKER_12]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

[SPEAKER_07]: No bother at all Oh, there's one more thing You don't remember what your wife was wearing that night, do you?
[SPEAKER_07]: Thank you again What's something else?
[SPEAKER_12]: And according to the guy that created the character Levinson, the catchphrase one more thing was conceived when they were writing the play and they had a scene that was too short, but they already had Colombo make his exit, they were too lazy to re-type it, so they just added him coming back in and saying one more thing.
[SPEAKER_12]: What, and it was the plaid, that was so funny.
[SPEAKER_12]: That's so every single time fantastic.
[SPEAKER_12]: Now, right, the other innovation and Oscar, this is the thing that is the most fascinating part of Colombo.
[SPEAKER_12]: And I didn't realize it.
[SPEAKER_10]: I thought you were finished.
[SPEAKER_10]: Growing kind of gloomy in when you're done.
[SPEAKER_10]: Will you please?
[SPEAKER_10]: Sure.
[SPEAKER_10]: I don't know when you just pulled a clip.
[SPEAKER_10]: You're not really good at like bill boarding.
[SPEAKER_10]: You really kind of, I thought that was it.
[SPEAKER_12]: Well, we're going to close Mike with the, with the Emmy information.
[SPEAKER_12]: And it's coming up very, very.
[SPEAKER_10]: The Emmy information, standby.
[SPEAKER_12]: But I want you to know that the show is recording.
[SPEAKER_12]: popularized and inverted detective story format, which is known in the business is a how catch him.
[SPEAKER_12]: How catch him means that the first scene actually shows the murder and how it was done and then he has to solve it by the end of the episode.
[SPEAKER_12]: So as a viewer, you know who's guilty.
[SPEAKER_12]: As opposed to if you're watching a rockford files or a murder she wrote.
[SPEAKER_10]: Oh man, yeah, because that's what made the one more thing because you're rooting against the villain.
[SPEAKER_12]: Right.
[SPEAKER_12]: And Jack Cassidy did play the villain multiple times Mike.
[SPEAKER_12]: I'm so glad you brought it up as a matter of fact Jack Cassidy holds the record For being a murderer in season one Five and five now Cassidy could have been a murderer of fourth time, but and I quote from the website Tragically died in a house fire in 1976 after he dropped a lit cigarette on a nogga hide couch nogga hide when I'm like a brush
[SPEAKER_12]: I ain't factoring and that's yeah, that might not work in all the show on 13 Emmy Awards for for Peter Falk is best actor in the drama and his speeches were always great here he is in 1976 And I have a television show and there's hundreds of people in Bob there's an actors and producers and writers and the whole crew
[SPEAKER_01]: cameraman and sound man and now the show goes on the air and it's a hidden and the spot light narrows down and the focus on just this one person and everybody else is in the dog and that person is the star and the point that I was trying to make was that I think that's a very sensible system.
[SPEAKER_01]: So he was a, yeah, he won four and he just showed his car on anybody to change it.
