[SPEAKER_06]: They need protection.

[SPEAKER_03]: But emergency protection.

[SPEAKER_03]: I think Mike's right.

[SPEAKER_03]: Let's come up with a sound effect that transitions right there.

[SPEAKER_05]: How about we just transition into it?

[SPEAKER_05]: Better.

[SPEAKER_06]: Well, you don't want to hear the little bits up front?

[SPEAKER_05]: No, you don't want to hear the little bits and it's like seven hours between the music and being in there's no segway.

[SPEAKER_05]: It's horrible.

[SPEAKER_03]: No, it's a three count for edit in the audio after.

[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, because the most of our listeners do not see that countdown.

[SPEAKER_06]: Oh, and we don't want, you know, we don't want it to bleed over.

[SPEAKER_06]: So it's sort of on purpose.

[SPEAKER_05]: I know who in my eyes saw rain.

[SPEAKER_06]: All right, um, show what is it?

[SPEAKER_06]: Because we want to clean at it up front.

[SPEAKER_06]: And we have if the modern music, you know, goes into it'll bleed.

[SPEAKER_03]: My phone started, my phone started playing for me. [SPEAKER_03]: Christ. [SPEAKER_03]: See, I knew I wasn't. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, and people give me, and people want to tell me the f-off, because they get on Rob's ass. [SPEAKER_05]: No, I'm Mike, I, I, I, I, oh, the boom. [SPEAKER_05]: Mike, would you like to call five, seven, one, six, two, five, one, one, one, one, four, you know, we have, we have the new start and it just can't fucking be done it can't no you didn't listen, it wasn't working fine It wasn't working fine until the show starts and then even though it wasn't saying and then I hear it in the background something and I'm like oh my god, what's going on? [SPEAKER_05]: No, it was his phone it wasn't fucking on during a broadcast at the worst possible moment [SPEAKER_06]: Mike, I hope people call me and tell me to have fun because I, I don't know why my phone started playing. [SPEAKER_03]: Correct. [SPEAKER_03]: And I am proud that Mike's phone never goes off during a show. [SPEAKER_05]: My phone goes off in all the time during the show, just not at the most important moment. [SPEAKER_06]: Well, I didn't choose the moment. [SPEAKER_05]: I'm trying to ramp people up, Rob. [SPEAKER_05]: I'm trying to get people ramp time. [SPEAKER_05]: So what is the, all right, 5, 7, 1, 6, 2, 4, 1, 9, 1, 4. [SPEAKER_05]: Can someone slap my, now Tom, Tom Powers, Tom Powers? [SPEAKER_05]: Now the rate, can I just finish Josh? [SPEAKER_05]: Go ahead. [SPEAKER_05]: Can I just finish? [SPEAKER_05]: Please. [SPEAKER_05]: Tom, you have an opportunity to slap me today because the f-off line is not designed for Josh. [SPEAKER_05]: It's not designed for Rob. [SPEAKER_05]: It is me and me alone if you would like to call and say hello. [SPEAKER_05]: where you're from, and then simply say, Mike F. Off, that's it. [SPEAKER_05]: If you want to call and you have a reason to call, you can call and say it's different. [SPEAKER_03]: But I think it's to prove that all these haters don't have any balls, and they just post things online. [SPEAKER_03]: They'll never use their real name. [SPEAKER_03]: That's true. [SPEAKER_03]: Make a phone call. [SPEAKER_05]: Well, I don't care if they use an alias on the phone. [SPEAKER_05]: That doesn't drive me at all. [SPEAKER_06]: I hate to bring this up, but the F. Off [SPEAKER_03]: Well, good thing I've got a backup. [SPEAKER_05]: So there we go. [SPEAKER_05]: That call the F off line five seven one six two four nineteen forty one nineteen forty one like the movie with John Believer actually nineteen forty one when the allies were taking on the Germans in the japan east uh... nineteen forty one when uh... Benny Goodman and his orchestra were at the pinnacle of their success uh... nineteen four that's all I mean I might listen to touch the p.t. [SPEAKER_03]: and I said what is this spell and it says it spells five seven one o' mera [SPEAKER_03]: I told you, P.D. [SPEAKER_03]: No, it doesn't. [SPEAKER_06]: It does not at all. [SPEAKER_06]: What it does, though. [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah, it doesn't. [SPEAKER_06]: It spells 5, 7, 1, nag 1941. [SPEAKER_06]: If you wanted to assign a letter to it, nag 1941, because the haters are a little bit, they nag a little bit. [SPEAKER_05]: I like to pause what he does something like that. [SPEAKER_05]: He's got to handle it on his own. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, I know. [SPEAKER_05]: I'm still doing it. [SPEAKER_05]: You know, all right. [SPEAKER_05]: So boy, it doesn't matter. [SPEAKER_05]: Hey, low, low to bar, stew to bone to deep down. [SPEAKER_05]: You don't write it. [SPEAKER_05]: You, you say it in the chat. [SPEAKER_05]: Doesn't count. [SPEAKER_05]: No, you don't. [SPEAKER_05]: You know, you don't spell it. [SPEAKER_05]: So I will we will continue with the broadcast and every time Josh thinks that it's worthy to put someone through he will put someone through and the only the only caveat. [SPEAKER_05]: for putting somebody through. [SPEAKER_05]: If you're going to get on the show, you have to tell me that from off to that. [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, that's it. [SPEAKER_05]: All right. [SPEAKER_05]: Now, over the course of the years, do you take phone calls, nope, and I'll tell you why, because of things like this. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, no, of course. [SPEAKER_03]: It's lit. [SPEAKER_03]: What do you mean no one calls? [SPEAKER_03]: I'm saying that's why we don't do calls. [SPEAKER_03]: Do you take a bunch of, it's a bunch of work to take a phone call. [SPEAKER_03]: And if people don't call, why would we keep taking calls? [SPEAKER_05]: Well, I mean, we've had people call in the past. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_05]: they don't have anything to say so I figured if I gave them the F off. [SPEAKER_05]: rule. [SPEAKER_05]: You know, he's he's done it, Rob. [SPEAKER_05]: He's thrown me for the Leah Remedy. [SPEAKER_05]: We're right now. [SPEAKER_05]: No, no, he has told me for the fucking Leah Remedy. [SPEAKER_05]: No one calls. [SPEAKER_05]: That's not fucking true. [SPEAKER_03]: Right here. [SPEAKER_03]: You want to get off of someone? [SPEAKER_03]: Yes. [SPEAKER_03]: Yes. [SPEAKER_03]: All right. [SPEAKER_03]: Well, that person hung up. [SPEAKER_03]: So here, we'll take another call. [SPEAKER_03]: All right. [SPEAKER_03]: Very good. [SPEAKER_03]: We start with Johnny. [SPEAKER_03]: Hey, Johnny. [SPEAKER_05]: All right. [SPEAKER_05]: Do you do I just dive right in? [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_05]: Hi, Johnny. [SPEAKER_05]: Hey Mike. [SPEAKER_05]: Hi.

[SPEAKER_05]: I wish I was controlling it. [SPEAKER_05]: I wish I was controlling it. [SPEAKER_03]: I really do. [SPEAKER_03]: You set up to control it on the next time.

[SPEAKER_06]: So like as we establish the rules when they say f off or the more graphic I know that's like saying 10 for good buddy. [SPEAKER_05]: That's not that don't put it like that dummy because if you put it like that They're gonna talk for three hours before they say it no right the whole idea of the f off line is people primarily are calling in to tell me to f off Okay, if you put in in rule form, you know do me if you got Henry [SPEAKER_05]: All right, Henry.
